Location of Listed Documents
Note: Passages in italics are my comments, unless noted otherwise.
This publication ran for 77 issues (or more?). Publication commenced in July 1955. Issues #1 through #35 were called "DEUCE Programme News", subsequent issues were simply called "DEUCE News". The initial aim was to provide a monthly summary of news of interest to DEUCE programmers, on subjects like: programmes issued/completed; subroutines issued/completed; amendments/corrections to programmes and subroutines, "programming devices" (neat ways of programming); the programming implications of upgrades to the DEUCE computer or its peripherals. Occasional issues were devoted to single topics of importance.
The list of 77 issues is rather long and is presented separately here.

The English Electric Company Ltd., Stafford, UK
Abstract. This paper describes the principal features of (i) The General Interpretive Program, (ii) The Tabular Interpretive Program, and (iii) Alphacode, which are the interpretive programs which have been most extensively used in solving problems on DEUCE. The characteristics of these three schemes are compared and contrasted.

New South Wales University of Technology, Sydney, Australia
Abstract. Most computers in operation today have supplementary programs which do automatic coding or program assembling. These programs either translate, automatically code, or interpret pseudo instructions which in themselves may cause the enaction of hundreds of actual machine instructions. The outstanding feature of such routines is that programming time and effort is cut to a minimum. This paper deals generally with translation and interpretive schemes, and specifically with a suitable translation routing for use with the DEUCE computer. The translation program is called SODA, or Symbolic Optimum Deuce Assembly Program. Two examples of SODA use are included in the appendix.

It kind of makes you wonder if any of the people currently in political office ever read any of the founding documents explaining how our government was supposed to work.
This is a discussion on President Bush wants More power to the Executive within the The Second Amendment & Gun Legislation Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; I was watching FOX news, yesterday as President Bush stated that Congress needs to pass new laws to to extend the powers of the Executive ...
I was watching FOX news, yesterday as President Bush stated that Congress needs to pass new laws to to extend the powers of the Executive in response to a mass casualty event like another major storm or even a terror attack. Sorry, but he already has them under a series of Executive Orders written by every President since JFK and under continuous authorization of an ongoing "State of Emergency" that every President since Eisenhower has extended, probably under the threat of the Cold War. These Executive Orders authorize the total suspension of the Constitution for six months without review by Congress. Authorizes FEMA to assume all governmental powers and powers to relocate populations, en masse. As well as confiscate everything from individual food supplies, to firearms to power generators purchased at Home Depot. There are some fifteen such orders all artfully strung together during the Nixon administration and expanded under the Omnibus Crime Bills of 1991 and 1994. They are all viewable in the Federal Register and they are truly frightening. President Bush wants to now ADD to this power? I don't think so. With this power, Hillary Clinton could succeed in doing what her husband always longed to do: Become American royalty and rule for life.

It kind of makes you wonder if any of the people currently in political office ever read any of the founding documents explaining how our government was supposed to work.
EOD - Initial success or total failure
Do you have a source on that by any chance? I do not doubt you, I would just like to read upon it and reference it in a discussion I was having on another board.Originally Posted by ExSoldier762
We were discussing the confiscation of guns in New Orleans. Somebody brought up that it might have been because Martial Law was declared. I pointed out (among other things) that Martial Law was never declared. One liberal tried to correct me with a news story that the Mayor had declared martial law. I tore this to shreds because the mayor had no authority to declare martial law. What a sad state of affairs that would be if each mayor had the authority to declare martial law in their cities.
This led to another discussion on the basis for martial law. I pointed out that nowhere in the Constitution does it make provision for martial law. Now some will argue that its implied and/or partial Martial Law is allowed because the Constitution allows the suspension of habeas corpus, and for the activation of the militia in time of rebellion or invasion. I would agree that some, very limited, martial law types powers are given in these instance, but in no way should we go with the its implied theory to grant complete martial law powers. What a dangerous road that is.
So what people need to realize is since the declaring or martial law is not authorized in the Constitution, that the declaring of Martial Law is suspending the Constitution. And the Constitution does not give anybody this authority to suspend the Constitution. So they are going above the supreme law of the land.
Blessed be the Lord my rock who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle. Psalm 144:1
Si vis pacem, para bellum
I read through the Exective Orders once. I'll never do it agan. It put me off my feed for several days. You're right ,Bush doesn't need more he's already got too much at his fingertips. He must know that? Maybe he should read the Federalist Papers.
I used to work with the "Military Suport to Civilian Authorities" office of the California National Guard. People think that a Martial Law declaration gives the government all sorts of power to suspend civil rights and so forth. It doesn't. It only does 2 things:
1. It suspends Habius Corpus. In othrwords the authorities can detain someone without charges longer than usual. This is because it is assumed that in the event of a disaster or civil unrest that requires the declaration of martial law in the first place, it may be dificult to arrange court hearings and arraignments... so the authorities can hang on to BGs until things settle down enough for the court system to function again.
2. It allows military forces to engage in law-and-order operations. They are under the same restrictions as law enforcement officers, in fact in California SOP was to assign a LEO if possible to each unit to advise them on proper procedure. It doesn't mean that they can do whatever they want, search you, search your house, break down the door, etc. In a disaster or civil unrest situation "probable cause" is a lot easier to show... ie: breaking down the door of a non-responsive house in a flooded area is pretty easy to justify; you have to make sure there's nobody inside too weak to respond, also have to check for dead bodies. It does NOT allow you to break down the door or enter a house that has responded and told you to go away. Citizens still have the right to refuse help.
The circumstances where the government can declare a true "mandatory" evacuation and actually force people from their homes is pretty limited, even in California.
"I am a Soldier. I fight where I am told, and I win where I fight." GEN George S. Patton, Jr.
That was my point. Congress is given those two powers, but they do not rise to the level of what is traditionally known as Martial Law.
Blessed be the Lord my rock who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle. Psalm 144:1
Si vis pacem, para bellum
Legislator - ''Hey, we need a new law"
Questioner - "But surely that is already on the statute book?"
Legislator - "So what - you expect me to go looking?"
If enough digging is done we'll found about every law ever even considered, somewhere. Instead the statute book gets ever more confusing and congested - not even skilled attornies can manage it all.Buzz - that is recommended reading for anyone wishing to find a way to avoid sleep! I found it disturbing.I read through the Exective Orders once. I'll never do it again.
Don't forget too, Ayn Rand in Atlas Shrugged ....."Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted ? and you create a nation of law-breakers ? and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with."

What is this?
I received it as a hitchhiked plant & allowed it to grow. It's the strands in the moss on the right http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps37382c6c.jpg
Utricularia gibba.
Better remove ASAP or you'll never rid of them from your tank. It is more annoying than riccia or duckweed.
Yikes this thing is a carnivore? I probably should of expressed concern sooner, the stuff is tangled everywhere, luckily it pulls off the plants leaves pretty easily, well except for my moss this will be difficult
It's not that ugly to be honest....
PITA pity! I had to remove bits by bits.
I remove.....so much of this stuff from my 5.5.......its not even funny.
But you're in luck, cause some crazy soul on here is actually wanting this stuff for a fry tank lol.
I'm glad I removed most of it while I could, the strands are really really long, tangling my stem plants, I don't have any problems with Riccia. That is what you see in the picture that looks like a lawn

As practicing optometrists in the Athens area, we find it most disturbing that the Medical Association of Georgia is using its considerable political power to prevent patients from receiving timely and cost-effective eye care. The entire medical establishment is conspiring to deny patients access to this care by exerting its collective influence on the Georgia legislature to vote down House Bill 577, which would allow optometrists to prescribe oral medications for eye problems only. Thirty-five states already allow for such treatment by optometrists.
Does it make sense that a trained optometrist, who examined a patient's eyes and discovered an eye problem needing a specific oral medication, cannot, while the patient is in his/her office, prescribe an oral antibiotic to quell an infection which could lead to further costly and sight-threatening eye problems?
Optometrists take the exact same pharmacology courses that ophthalmologists do in school. Why is their doxycycline better than what we would prescribe?
Optometrists can prescribe oral narcotics, but cannot Rx oral antibiotics or even oral antihistamines that can be obtained over the counter. Where is the wisdom in this?
We urge all those who find it offensive that patients are caught in the middle of such a struggle call their state representative and state senator and request that they vote FOR passage of HB 577.

- About Plattsburgh
SUNY NY-ALERT is an emergency alert system based on the NY-ALERT system established by the New York State Emergency Management Office (SEMO). SUNY campuses can use the SUNY NY-ALERT system to send emergency and safety information and protective action messages, to students, employees, and visitors to protect lives and well-being, protect assets and minimize campus disruption.
The SUNY NY-ALERT system can be used only by authorized campus personnel to send emergency messages, including emergency protective actions, warnings and post-incident information related to life safety issues to the campus community. SUNY NY-ALERT will not be used by any party for any political, financial or personal gain, advertisement or advocacy. All parties that use NY-ALERT will adhere to the professional ethics standards promulgated by the State of New York.
Alert notifications are allowed pertaining only to events in the categories identified below or other "life threatening" situations. "All Clear" and/or additional follow-up messages pertaining to end of event or additional instructions regarding the event are acceptable. General notifications of campus non-emergency events or activities are not acceptable via the SUNY NY-ALERT service.
No. Campuses can opt to have their own solution, but participation in this project is highly encouraged because it is free. SEMO has worked with major cellular companies to allow for priority handling of the calls and text messages. SEMO has also developed a system to prevent overloading a campus e-mail server when emergency messages are sent.
No. Students, faculty and staff will have the ability to opt out, but participation is voluntary and strongly encouraged. Those who opt out will have the opportunity to participate at any time by signing up on-line.
No. SUNY NY-ALERT will augment the other means, which include emails, Website, television, posters, etc.
Some SUNY campuses have reported that students and employees resist giving their contact information because they do not want to be bombarded with e-mails from the campus. Individuals are informed that this data will not be stored in Banner with the goal of having a higher participation rate.
Yes. You will be asked to sign up for SUNY NY-ALERT at the beginning of each semester. This may sound unnecessary, but this is actually for your protection. Many faculty, staff, and students change cell phone numbers/companies each year and do not submit their update information to important lists. We also have faculty, staff and students who leave for various reasons each semester (graduation, transfer to another campus, work) and this is the only way currently in existence to manage the list. Signing up only takes a few minutes, but the time spent could one day prove useful to you in the event of an emergency.
No. You will be allowed to enter up to three telephone numbers, two email addresses, one fax number and four text message numbers. They can be your local, work, home, cell or what ever number you want to enter. It doesn't matter what order either since the system will dial them all at about the same time.
If you have voice mail, the message will be left in your voice mail box. If you do not have voice mail, the system will redial each number up to three times before moving on to the next number.
If you are a student or employee of SUNY Plattsburgh, you can sign up for SUNY NY-ALERT through BannerWeb . It will be the first thing you see under the Main Menu.
Faculty and staff who use the SUNY Employee Services Portal can also sign up for SUNY NY-ALERT through the Portal. If you do not have access to BannerWeb, then you will have to complete a form and submit the information to University Police. Individuals affiliated with an organization on campus will be granted permission. If there is an issue, the requestor will be notified as soon as possible. (To receive the form, please contact University Police at SUNY Plattburgh, 518 564-2022.)
You can go into BannerWeb and update the information as often as possible. The latest information will override any previous information you have previously entered. However, be as accurate as possible.
Yes. SUNY Plattsburgh will conduct a test of the system each semester. The test during the fall 2007 semester will occur in November. Notification of the test will precede the actual test.

Postgame Quotes
North Carolina 79, Maryland 68
North Carolina Head Coach Roy Williams
Opening Statement:
"I'm really happy for our guys, really proud of them. Maryland, I thought, would make a run, but I was hoping our play would not allow them to make a run. We turned it over two or three times in the backcourt, and they made a couple of 3s, and all of a sudden it was a six-point game. The best thing I liked was Marcus Paige-who turned it over at least two of those times-stepped up to make the big 3 to take it back to nine. Then we came down and we got James Michael [McAdoo], going to the basket on a set play, he makes the layup and got fouled, so we have a three-point play. Basically we made free throws and did some good things at that point, but we also know we got Maryland on a night when they didn't make some shots they normally make."
On neutralizing Maryland:
"P.J. [Hairston] stretches the defense so much that sometimes other teams make substitutions. They went small a lot tonight, too. For us, we can't guard the guy on the post. Early on I thought they were hurting us inside, and they had 14 points from offensive rebounds in the first half, and they only had six in the second half. We talked about the biggest thing at halftime was trying to do a better job rebounding the ball... You look at Reggie [Bullock], he has 12 rebounds, and P.J. has eight. That's pretty impressive from your wing players."
On his team:
"They really have come a long way. They've bought in to the sense of urgency idea; they've bought into the unselfishness, trying to do what we ask them to do. They compete; that was something I'm really proud of. I've brought some really good teams in here. We won a National Championship in '09, but we didn't win here. I really liked the way our kids did. Even Marcus [Paige], and I'm serious, he made some bad plays and if I'm not mistaken, that big 3 was the first big play. After that one run there, he didn't do anything else except move the ball, and get the ball to the right people. We ran three set plays, and something good happened out of all three set plays."
On the team's sixth straight win:
"I always have this funny thing to me: I don't know how to make my team peak, and neither does anybody else. There's not one of us who's that much smarter than the other guy. If I knew how to make my team peak, so would they. Everyone would be peaking, and how the crap would you know who's peaking? We work as hard as we can every single day, and I tell my team all the time, if you bust your tail every day, you're going to get better as we go along. That's what we've talked about with this group, and at the beginning of the season I said I thought my team would get better and better as the season went along, and I really think they have."
UNC Players
Junior Guard Reggie Bullock:
On Maryland's second-half run:
"They were trying to make a run and had a good stretch to cut it to six points. We had to be mentally tough. Out of the timeout we made some plays. Marcus [Paige] started us off with a three pointer. He made a great shot, and we just turned it up."
On North Carolina's play:
"We're getting better every game. Everybody is sharing the ball up front, and we're talking on defense. We just have to keep doing that."
On the rebounding battle:
"We tried to be big on the boards. We had a small lineup in there so we had to make plays. Maryland is one of the best rebounding teams in the league."
Senior Guard Dexter Strickland
On playing with a small lineup:
"I don't think it has anything to do with the lineup. I think it's because our guys have more experience on the floor. We know what we have to do to get a win. Everyone is playing as a team. The team chemistry is there and everyone is playing hard."
On the play of Marcus Paige:
"He bounced back quickly. We need him to do that. If he turns the ball over, he can't dwell on that turnover and let it affect his game. He hit a big three for us. You can see his confidence growing with each game."
Sophomore Guard P.J. Hairston
On his rebounding effort tonight:
"That's been the key the last couple of games. I would finish with three or four rebounds. This game I knew that Maryland was leading the conference in rebounding, so my goal was just to crash the boards."
On stopping Maryland's second-half run:
"We played with poise; we didn't let their run affect us. We had a couple of turnovers which led to a layup and a three-point basket. After that we played with poise and hit some shots."
On playing better on the road of late:
"We all bought in. We realized that even though we're on the road, that we are the same team. We can play like this anytime regardless of if we are at home or on the road. We just have to play with heart."

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hello and thanks for trusting me to help you today. I am a tax adviser with over 15 years of experience.By your statement independant contractor who hires other sub-contractors I was under the impression that you did not have employees.
If these are sub contractors what taxes are you paying?
That's the big question!
So all my income is reported by my clients' W-9 forms that are sent to me.
But most of that income is spent on sub-contractors.
I think what has thrown me is how it is reported in my tax software.
For instance, my software keeps a running total of how much I owe the government...
Have you been treating this workers as employees and withholding tax and paying the employer portion of same?
All are reported as nonemployee compensation.
If they are not your employees (and we can go over that in a sec) then the fact that all the amounts are reported to you as wages will work out when you file because what you issue to them by means of a 1099MISC
is subtracted from your Gross
You will not be paying tax on the amounts you report as paid to these subs
that will be an expense that you use when you file
DO you file a Schedule C
for your business income?
Then on the Schedule C you will show the expense
Correct, line 11 on schedule C.
Contract labor includes payments to persons you do not treat as employees (for example, independent contractors) for services performed for your trade or business. This is shown on Line 11 of the Schedule C
All of that information shows up.
So your software is not accounting for the deduction?
It doesn't seem to...
Here's what happens.
My taxes are completely done except for the W-9 entries.
(for my sub contractiors)
I enter in $9350 paid to an employee, and the amount owed to the Federal gov only drops by $2140.
First you should not be entering anything under employees. These are contract labor and 1099MISC are issued to them. I know you ask for the W9 because they are US persons and you need theinfo to report but that is as far as teh W 9 goes for these people
Yes, sorry. They are not employees.
These amounts are appearing on line 11 of Schedule C.
I think when you are entering "employee" items the amount is only dropping a little because teh program may be still calculating your portion of employer taxes
If they are appearing on 11 and subtracting out then you would only be paying tax on teh remaining amount
That would be income and self employment tax
but just for yourself
Look at your Schedule C and check to make sure that your line 31 is the true Net Profit
it should be the Gross less your expenses (with the contractor payments from you included)
Then I can tell what your SE tax would be on that
Changing your business structure at this point (even to S corp) may not be the best thing
I am set up as a sole proprietor.
You would then need to file W2 for you because of the requirement to pay a salary and the portion of your employment taxes would need to be paid as well as more filing then you may want to complete
I think if you want to stay simple
you shoudl stay as sole prop
you are only having to file teh 1099MISC to contractors
your own Schedule C
and the SE
S corp, if you restructured woudl be more involved
Right. That makes sense.
taxes would still be owed just coming from different places
I like to explain it as different pckets, same pair of pants
Do you feel better about seeing that the expense is being shown?
I do.
Just the way that it calculated it made me feel like I was being ripped off.
I know
I didn't even think about it calculating self-employment tax into it.
People forget about the SE tax
And remember
you are getting half of that on your 1040 as an adjustment (the SE tax)
Is there a standard way to calculate how much SE tax you will pay?
The easiest way is to plug in the numbers on the SE . The rate consists of 12.4% for social security and 2.9% for Medicare taxes for 2013.
Got it.
Thank you for your help today.
You are most welcome. Your positive rating is always thanks enough.
I really enjoyed working with you – please feel free to request me again when you come back to ask another question.

The Bottom Is In
Complain all like about government intervention. Keep complaining for the next decade, or whenever the next crisis happens. In the meantime, I think I'm going to make some dough on distressed housing.
"Come, Quickly, They're throwing money away."
3 comments:
Hiya Elen,ReplyDelete
I'm not sure I'm qualified to answer that. I don't see much reason to take advantage of weakness in Detroit or any of the rust belt. I don't see any reason to get into speculative land in growth areas like Florida. I recently inherited a bunch of speculative land that I'd like to unload.
Were I to hazzard a guess, I'd say that I think the whoosh down is about over nationally. Heavy distress situations are probably a good buy.
I'm putting my money where my mouth is. My wife and I were out shopping for distressed properties today. The two properties we really liked had sold faster than MLS could be updated. One house had a hostile foreclosure situation in progress, but I'll check it out tomorrow, I wasn't going to bring my kid in there, and I didn't have any guns with me.
I don't think our market is going to take off, but the low-hanging fruit will soon disappear.
I own a partial interest in a house in CT, so I'd like to be bullish. I sold a house in CT in January 2004. I think prices are lower than when I sold, but are they a buy today? I think there's a long-term demographic shift working against the northeast, and I wouldn't be a buyer without some extreme distress.
There is still an abundance of distress everywhere, but it's not going to last after this deal with Fannie and Freddie.

Tokyo Electric Power Co. must stop using sunken reservoirs to store radioactive water accumulating at the crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant once it has enough storage tanks, Economy, Trade and Industry Minister Toshimitsu Motegi said Wednesday.
Three of the seven reservoirs, which are basically lined trenches with surface covers, have been found to be leaking radioactive water, including seawater, leading Tepco to consider transferring some of the contents to more reliable tanks above ground. The water was cycled through reactors 1, 2 and 3, which suffered core meltdowns in 2011, to keep the units cool to prevent further massive fallout.
The utility has said it cannot empty all the sunken reservoirs currently in use because there is not enough alternative storage capacity on the site now. Tepco plans to install tanks that can hold 15,000 tons by mid-April.
Motegi told a Diet committee that the radioactive water will be "swiftly" moved to tanks above ground and "after that, sunken reservoirs should not be used."
The situation regarding radioactive water leaks has been worsening since Tepco first announced it earlier this month, with more sunken cisterns found with problems increasing. There is speculation there may have been flaws in the construction of the reservoirs. All were built by Maeda Corp.
Tepco also said Wednesday that it confirmed a small amount of radioactive substances outside the water-containment lining sheets laid between reservoir No. 1, the latest one found with leaks, and the soil. Radioactive water leaks to soil have already been reported around reservoirs Nos. 2 and 3.
The utility said it has detected 0.11 becquerel of radioactive substances per cubic centimeter of water in soil outside the three lining layers of reservoir No. 1.
Radioactive water that escaped from that cistern may have seeped into the ground, according to Tepco.
To boost oversight at the plant, which also recently saw the halt of its cooling system for spent-fuel pools, the Nuclear Regulation Authority said it will increase the number of on-site inspectors from eight to nine.
The continued injections of water into reactors 1-3 is causing the massive accumulation of radioactive water.
Water used to cool the damaged reactors is recycled as coolant after radioactive cesium and other substances have been removed in a processing facility. But the total amount of tainted water is rising because the existing water flow allows an influx of about 400 tons of groundwater a day.

chimni, that is one big dog in a .:R did you delete the rear seat to accommodate her?
Only the best for our pup!
I've zigzagged the country in my R with my 80 lb Rottie-Shepard mutt. I usually prep her (cleaned and brushed) and the R (seats covered). She loves it, and I love to have her, but the bad part is that if I'm not wanting her in the car, and I'm not paying attention and leave the car door open she'll jump in lay on the back seat, ready for a ride. The look of disappointment when I tell her to get out is horrible.
(Photo cred goes to my sister)
This is my chocolate lab Joe. He's muh big boy. 116lbs and not overweight. He will play ball until you pass out from throwing the ball too much. He also goes by Brownie Powder.
This is my black lab Mongo. His aliases are Mr. Kitty Winkles (kitty for short), Roach Man, and Doorstop. He is known to do nothing... all the time.
Both dogs are the best dogs i have ever encountered and could ask for. Hope they could stay with me forever.
oh.. neither of them fit in the .:R. Cant say i havent tried though.

Edward Mote was a Baptist pastor in nineteenth-century England, serving for 26 years at Horshem in Sussex. If American Christians know him at all, it is for the hymn he wrote, "My Hope Is Built." There is a story that Mote was so beloved by his congregation that they once offered him the title to the church building. Mote declined, however, saying, "I do not want the chapel, I only want the pulpit; and when I cease to preach Christ, then turn me out of that."

Mein Auto: 2013 328i 6sp manual
View My Garage
I appreciate all your posts on here but just so you know.... There are people out there who want their sport sedans to lean more towards the sport side than the luxury side. I tried to read the manual for the 328i and all the tech, idrive instructions made my head hurt. I can't believe how complicated it is to do simple things and all the options with idrive. I honestly wish BMW made an "old school" version or the 3 series. They could probably take 200lbs of electronics off the car and lower the price by $3000. I already think the X1 is a prime example of this. Less electronics and the older "platform" make the base price $6000 less and you still get the same engine and transmission. I ended up going with an M Sport manual with Harmon Kardon and red leather. I value going fast, bright colors, a great stereo. I wouldn't even care if the car had idrive. Also my comfort limit on spending was about $40k. I ended up at $41K give or take. Enjoy your loaded beauty. Some of us just can't spend that much and still appreciate BMW.

"The scout teams had two good days," head coach Mark Richt said. "We needed them to work hard for us and they have and I appreciate that. I think we've got a pretty good level of energy in practice, which is what we're hoping for. For the next two days, we'll be in shorts and have a couple of dress rehearsals. Thursday, of course, we'll be in the stadium with it as loud as we can get it."
Richt held his game-week press session earlier on Tuesday and discussed the significance of the Tennessee matchup and facing the Vols.
"This is a big game this week -- no doubt about it," Richt said. "There is so much riding on it for both teams. If we win, we continue to be one of the conference¹s top teams and if we lose, we lose control of the SEC East. They are not a good team, but a great football team. They recruit great players and coach them up while they are there."
Georgia will travel to Knoxville, Tenn., this Saturday to face No. 7-ranked Tennessee (3-1, 2-1) at Neyland Stadium. That contest will be televised nationally by CBS with kick-off slated for 3:30 p.m. ET.

Another thing the game gets right is its approach to melee combat. With sword, staff or daggers selected, the right trigger sends out a quick blow while the left trigger parries. Press and hold the right trigger and you strike out with a high-powered thrust or slash, while pressing the left trigger and then the right unleashes a kick that sends your target stumbling back. It's actually pretty effective, and it also helps that Dark Messiah goes big on ways in which you can use the environment to despatch numerous orcs, ghouls and goblins to their doom. Off-balance beasties can be kicked over the edge of a precipice, into waiting fires, or against the various spiked racks that someone has carelessly left littering the game's locations. See a poorly constructed platform holding a collection of heavy barrels? One good whack on the support and those bad boys will be rolling over black-armoured guards before you know it. Similarly, if there's a flimsy rope holding back a heavy column, you just know it has not been left like that by chance.
Now, when it's good, Dark Messiah is almost as good as you might imagine. When you're climbing a staircase that spirals its way up the side of a mountain, booting off one orc, slashing at another then sending a fireball towards a dynamic duo of archers on a platform just behind, the game gathers momentum. Suddenly you get the sort of heroic fantasy feel that the developers were clearly striving for. It's great to get a sense that your powers are developing, and - like Bioshock - you soon learn innovative and entertaining new ways in which spells or skills can be successfully applied to cull the local goblin population. Better still, the game even packs in a nice, light sense of humour that alleviates some of the more po-faced fantasy elements. Guards and creatures can be heard conversing about their lot in life, while the taunting and goading in-combat - while repetitive - does include a few gems. And if the plot is a little predictable, there's an interesting battle for your heart and soul going on-between a goody-two-shoes girl sorcerer and a seductive demonic babe. There's even an attempt to follow Knights of the Old Republic in giving you the chance to go good or go bad later on.
The problem is that Dark Messiah isn't always - or even frequently - that great. The biggest fault is probably the pacing. Some of the best bits are over in a heartbeat, while some of the worst chunks of dull exploration and repetitive combat seem to drag on interminably. Sequences in gloomy temples and spider-infested tunnels prove particularly irritating, especially when the spiders carry poison in their bite, and there's at least one boss battle that turns into a tiresome war of attrition rather than a test of skill or ingenuity. For every ten minutes when the game becomes a mildly sadistic goblin-slaying playground, there's another ten minutes where it's just a bit of a grind. And while I like the use of platforming elements, there are times when the controls just aren't quite responsive enough to do the job. While we're on that subject, is this the only game in recent years where you have ropes but can't actually swing on them?

Take the classic Vegas Strip Blackjack, provide 5 multiple hand options in the slickest online casino in existence, and you have Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack Gold. If you enjoy the classic Vegas Strip Poker, you're going to love this!
Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack Gold lets you bet up to 5 hands at once, dealt from 4 freshly shuffled, 52 card decks - combined with ultra-real game play, this is blackjack gaming taken to new levels.

Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack Gold provides you with the opportunity for multiple Splits - so change your bad combinations up to 3 times to find some winning combos. If you're going to Split an Ace, be aware that you can only do it once and match one other card - so you could end up with a worse hand that you had before!
Doubling Down has always been a cool feature allowing you to benefit from hot combinations - Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack Gold lets you place a Double Down on any 2 card combo, in addition to allowing Double Downs after Splits - you can go from a losing hand to placing a side bet on your hot new Split in seconds.
Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack Gold allows the dealer to peek on 10 value cards and Aces - this is a great feature because it allows you to make a decision on the dealer's hand, rather than Splitting and Doubling Down only to find the dealer has you beaten! The dealer must Stand on All 17.
Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack Gold gives you the standard blackjack payouts for any winning hand under 21 (1:1) and blackjacks (3:2).
As with any blackjack game, the dealer isn't playing for fun and will hit a sequence of hot hands - so think about taking Insurance if the dealer keeps landing blackjacks. Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack Gold gives you the chance to cover your initial stake if the dealer's first card is an Ace - it might cost you 50% of your initial bet, but if you think the dealer's got you beaten, it can be a seriously good move!

CoQ10 Easy to take in one single dose
One of the easiest to digest. Be careful if for any reason the cap gets punctured...it will color your skin orange! If you are not convinced that supplements make a difference...I got asked out by a 24 year old who could not believe I was almost 50! It is not only the CoQ10 but I make that part of my DAILY supplementation. Younger than young grandma in Texas.

Excellent quality, easy to swallow, affordabale. My mother has Parkinson's desease, and her neurologist suggested this product to be used as supplement for her prescription medication. She's been using this porduct for over 2 years now, and the progression of her the desease seem to slow down. I used to have gum desease, but using this product has healed it completely.

This is an excellent choice for getting enough Coq10 n one softgel. Most people will benefit by a larger capsule and really need this much. Again, Healthy Origins uses pure olive oil as the filler oil instead of the nasty soy used in most products.

Seems to have reversed any Gingivitis I had. I had 1 spot around a back molar and I tried 200 mg daily first... Next checkup it was better but not gone so I increased to 400 mg daily and no sign of it by next checkup... I made a change to a lower carb diet a couple of years back and I believe that had allot to do with it too...

The truth is that this product didn't increase my vitality, but rather gave me insomnia. And the dosage is way off the deep end. Perforate the gel cap with a pin and take only about an eighth of a capsule. Even at that dose I stayed awake until three in the morning.
Good product

I have been taking it for over two weeks now. I can see the gap of the wrinkle on my face became shallower and some of them disappear. The capsules are very big. My wife was complaining about it. I also feel my heart getting stronger. I also took other supplements like Hawthorn, fish oil and Nakkokinase. There seems to be some synergy among them.

I am using this to help headaches as well as for heart. It took a month to see result, however, pain beginning to lessen! Yea! Also it is easy to take, important if your stomach acts up.
Gums Healed!

I had loose gums around my bottom teeth and they'd bleed whenever I brushed. After 2 weeks of taking this CoQ10, the gums are tight and the bleeding stopped.

From the TV 5 Forecast Center:
The storm that brought us the wet, windy and mild weather yesterday continues to move away to our north. Moisture wrapping around the departing storm will provide us with some cloudiness today. There will be some sunshine mixed in too so look for variably cloudy skies throughout the day. With low pressure to our north and high pressure to our south, the pressure gradient over the area will be fairly tight resulting in gusty westerly winds today. Temperatures are going to be cold with highs in the single numbers to around 10° north and teens to near 20° elsewhere. Winds are going to gust to 30-40 MPH at times today giving us wind chills near or below zero throughout the day. Some clouds will linger over the area tonight with lows dropping to a couple degrees either side of zero for nighttime lows.
High pressure building into the area will provide us with sunshine Wednesday and Thursday. Temperatures for both days will be in the teens and 20s for highs. High pressure will move east of the area Friday which will turn our winds around to a milder south/southwesterly direction for the end of the week. Temperatures on Friday will top off in the 20s to around 30°. Milder temperatures are expected Saturday with highs in the 30s to near 40°. Low pressure passing to our west on Saturday will give us a chance for some rain and snow.
Rest of Today: variably cloudy, windy and cold. Highs between 5°-18°, coldest north. West wind 15-25 MPH with gusts to 30-40 MPH possible. Wind chills will be between 0° to -15° throughout the day.
Tonight: partly to mostly cloudy. Cold with lows between -2° to +9°. Southwest wind around 10 MPH.
Wednesday: partly to mostly sunny. Chilly with highs between 14°-22°. West wind 10-15 MPH.
Thursday: mostly sunny with highs between 15°-25°.
Friday: mix of sun and clouds. Highs in the 20s to around 30°.
Saturday: becoming cloudy with afternoon rain and/or snow. Highs in the mid-30s to around 40°.

The easiest way to connect your computer to a TV is to use an appropriate video cable. To figure out what video cable you need, take a look at the video outputs on your computer. Common video output ports are VGA ports, DVI ports, composite video ports, and S-Video ports.Once you know what video outputs your computer has, determine the video inputs on your TV. If your computer has a VGA or DVI port to match your computer, connect your computer to the TV using those ports and an appropriate cable. It's as easy as connecting a computer to a monitor, and it ensures you get the best picture quality.If your computer and TV don't have matching VGA or DVI ports, look to see if you can connect the composite video or S-Video output on your computer to a corresponding input on the TV. Directions on how to do this can be found here. You'll need an S-Video cable or composite video cable to connect matching ports. If needed, you can buy a cable to connect an S-Video output on your computer to a composite video input on your TV, or vice versa.While the wired connections are the easiest to create, wirelessly connecting your computer and TV can be a great option if you want to keep the computer in an office but be able to connect it to the TV in any room. To connect a computer to a TV wirelessly, you will need a media center extender, a device that connects to your TV and gives you wireless access to the content on your PC. Xbox 360s can be used as media center extenders, and other extenders are available.Once you have your computer connected to a TV, try using Windows Media Center to watch and record live TV, view photos on your TV, and listen to music through your home entertainment system.

The lights are on
When Midway Games filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2009, most of the company's development studios and game properties found new homes. Midway Chicago, the team behind the Mortal Kombat series, quietly joined the Warner Bros. Interactive family, and it didn't take long for Warner to reveal that this studio was working on a new Mortal Kombat game.
When this news hit, the Internet immediately latched onto the idea that Ed Boon and his team (renamed NetherRealm Studios) was working on the sequel to Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe (another property owned by Warner). As much as I enjoyed watching Scorpion harpoon Superman, Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe wasn't really a Mortal Kombat game.
In the weeks leading up to this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo, NetherRealm Studios released a teaser video for its new product. Fan reaction couldn't have been greater. Like Street Fighter before it, Mortal Kombat is returning to its 2D roots, and it will be bloodier than ever.
The game is being designed like a band's greatest hits album, collecting the most beloved characters and arenas from the series' past. Sub-Zero can freeze Scorpion in his tracks as the angry trees from the Living Forest look on. Are you tired of watching Johnny Cage hit Liu Kang in the family jewels? A perfectly timed uppercut will send him flying into the pit.
Most of the characters are equipped with moves and weapons previously seen in the series, but the fighting that unfolds and the combos that are constructed are based mostly off of player ingenuity. "I want players to discover their own combos," says Boon. The game offers plenty of pre-scripted combos for each character, but players will find new ways to chain the sequences and special moves together. You'll even be able to create combos that link the attacks of tag partners.
Pummeling your opponent doesn't just bring sadistic satisfaction. As the hits land, you'll also be powering up a Super meter that can be tapped to enhance any one of the character's special moves. When the Super meter is filled, you can tap into an X-Ray move. As the name implies, this move highlights the brutality inflicted on the bones and organs of a fighter's body through a zoomed-in x-ray lens. You'll see jaws shatter, spines snap, and if you're using Sub-Zero, you'll see what happens to a liver that is frozen and crushed by a hand.
These moves are as brutal as anything the series has offered before, but they don't stack up to the level of gore tied to the new Fatalities. I wouldn't be surprised if Ed Boon told his team to make these finishers as disgusting and controversial as they could. Scorpion slices his opponent in two at the waist, and as their torso precariously balances on the legs, he severs their head, which also balances like a grotesque game of Jenga. Not finished, he kicks his opponent's torso to disassemble the pieces. As the head twirls through the air, he cuts it clean in half with a vertical slice. To say this game is violent is an understatement. To say it could be the most violent game ever made may be a fitting descriptor.The roster so far… The character select screen shown during the E3 demo features 26 slots for characters with additional slots set for random selection and DLC. While not the ludicrous size of the roster in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, this is a sizeable list that Boon says will consist of fan favorites, as well as a few surprises. Here's who's been revealed so far.Johnny CageKung LaoMileenaNightwolfRaidenReptileScorpionSektorShao KahnSub-Zero

Awwweeee yeah!
MORTAL KOMBAT FTW!! mortal kombat has been a great series excluding dc vs which suked in my opinion, But mk2 was BEAST..
I like fighting and tons of blood and violence. This appeals to me. Now if they can un-clunkify the MK fighting engine then we'll have a new champ.
Good to see an old classic revitalized.
Needs Liu Kang
this looks sweet. i already read it in the mag tho haha
good thing they have more then three playable characters unlike twisted metal.
The fighting genre is really going to have some heavy hitters coming out next year. I mean this, Marvel Vs. Capcom, and a year or two later we got Street Fighter Vs. Tekken and vice versa.
Definitely will get Mortal Kombat since I loved the original and haven't played many others besides it. It will be good to see how much improved and gory the game has come from its 1991 release date.
the most violent game ever?i thought the new Splatterhouse game was supposed to be in line for that title....either way,it'll be sweet playing both of them to determine which truly deserves that title.
Cannot wait for this!!!
this is gonna be sooo awesome
looks amazing
god MK is so AWESOME. sometimes in my martial arts class some of the poeple use quotes from the games, the one used most though is of course "get over here!!"
No Cyrax but they got Sektor??? Wheres Lui Kang? They should make Goro the secondary boss and Shoa Kahn the Last. But anyways, im with Johny Cage :P From the movie "This is where you fall down" lol
Ha sweet.
Most violent game ever played...hmmm. I like the sound of that!
