Tunnel Information Help Page
We have outlined below some guidance notes that might help when filling out our Norwegian tunnel information form.
Your Full Name:
Please give us your full name so that we contact personally.
Email Address:
Please give us your email address in case we need to contact you should we need more information. All email addresses will be kept confidential and will not be passed on to third parties.
Tunnel Name & Tunnel length:
Norwegian tunnels are all named and usually have a blue sign at each entrance giving the name and length.
Road number:
The number of the Norwegian road that the tunnel is situated on.
Latitude & Longitude:
We will need this to accurately place the marker on the map. You can find the Latitude and Longitude easily by using Pierre Gorissen's very useful 'Google Maps Latitude, Longitude Popup' page. Type in the name of the town nearest the tunnel e.g. Bergen, Norway and click 'find address', this should take you to the place on the map. Use the zoom controls and click and drag the map to find the road and the tunnel location. Click on the map somewhere in the centre of the tunnel and a red marker should appear, simply copy and paste the Latitude and Longitude from the 'Coordinates' boxes.
We have decided on a 'traffic light' grading system to help others:
This would be for tunnels that are open to cyclists and considered to be OK to cycle through. They would be relatively short in length, well lit, well ventilated, a good width and relatively traffic free.
This would be for tunnels that are open to cyclists but would need some caution to cycle through due to any of the following:
This would be for tunnels that are closed by the authorities to cyclists or a tunnel open to cyclists that was considered from experience by the contributor as un-suitable for cycling, perhaps causing them to suggest taking an alternative route.
It would be useful to know if the tunnel has lighting, many Norwegian tunnels don't have lights or are poorly lit.
Please give as much information as you can on cycling through the tunnel, however we would ask that you be succinct in order that the Info. windows are not too large.
If you have a lot of information on the tunnel or alternative routes, write a short synopsis for the Info. window and then send us the additional information in an e-mail to. We will then add a 'More info' link to the information on another page. Alternatively if you have more information on your own website let us know the url link to the page.
Alternative route:
If you know the tunnel is closed to cyclists or you consider it un-advisable to cycle through it and you know of an alternative route please enter it here.
If you have an image of the tunnel that you would like to include on the Info. window send us a .jpg or .png file toor alternatively if you have an image on your own website let us know a link url to that image.
If you would like to be acknowledged for your information please state how you wish it to be shown, it could be your name, or perhaps a nickname.
Your link:
If you have your own cycling related website that has information relevant to the tunnels page that you would like linked to your name please include the url here.
Lastly please be as accurate with your information as you can in order that fellow cyclists will find the Norwegian tunnels map page a useful resource.

Beijing's National and Olympic Stadium
Product Announcement from ENERPAC
December 18, 2008 - ENERPAC helps the Beijing "Birds Nest" to stand on its own feet
After two years of construction, the stadium for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games came to a final and very important phase in its construction-dismantling the temporary support piers from its uniquely designed roof.
When Swiss architects, Herzog & Meuron, presented their stadium design to the Chinese project team, they used the analogy of a bird's nest. A bird's nest is a Chinese culinary delight, believed to be extremely healthy and a delicacy eaten only on very special occasions. The team applauded the idea and construction began on the new Beijing National Stadium.
During construction, the criss-crossed, interwoven steel "twigs" of the bird's nest roof were supported by 78 temporary steel piers. For additional stability, these huge twigs were welded onto the piers. When the construction was completed, the twigs needed to be disconnected from the temporary piers and the piers dismantled.
In most western countries, cranes would have been used to support and lift the roof while welders could cut the welds from the 78 temporary piers. However, due to the phenomenal cost of hiring several 800-ton cranes for several days, a smarter and less expensive solution needed to be found. Key to the cutting operation was safety, control, stability and cost. Enerpac, known from many complex hydraulic applications around the globe and in particular in China for their hydraulic solutions for moving roofs (NanTong stadium) and moving structures (Shanghai concert hall), was consulted.
The disconnecting and dismantling process of the temporary piers was accomplished by synchronously stage-lifting the structure from its supports, cutting the welds, and synchronously stage-lowering the structure. This process allowed the removal of the 50mm thick leveling plates that were used during construction. Computer controlled hydraulic systems are ideal for these types of applications and Enerpac was awarded the contract because of their expertise with these systems.
The computer controlled hydraulic system consisted of a central computer networked with 10 satellite computers, 156 150-ton double-acting cylinders, and 55 10,000 psi custom Enerpac hydraulic pumps. System feedback and control was achieved by integrating multi-functional valves, load sensors, stroke sensors and shift detecting sensors.
The design of the bird's nest was based on three construction circles; an outer circle, a central circle and an inner circle. Each circle has a specific number of supporting piers, varying from 24 for the outer and central circles and 30 for the inner circle. For load control and accuracy reasons, the 78 support points including their hydraulic systems, were divided into 10 groups, each with its own satellite computer. For the actual stage-lifting and lowering process, each support pier was equipped with two 150-ton double-acting cylinders. At the central computer, all load and stroke data was pre-programmed for a fully controlled lifting and lowering process. During the stage-lowering process, the bird's nest was alternatively supported by the hydraulic cylinders and the leveling plates on the temporary supports.
After successfully disconnecting the 45,000 ton steel structure from its temporary support piers, the bird's nest stood on its own "feet" for the first time.

Oopsy: 78 Percent of Ed Show Viewers Side Against Ed Schultz In Favor of Drones
Politico media writer Dylan Byers reported that Ed Schultz viewers on MSNBC are bigger Obama fans than Schultz fans. While Schultz asserted on Thursday night that "many Americans want to know how the United States can order the killings of American citizens without due process," a phone survey during the hour of his show found
78 percent said they agreed with "the policy of targeted killing of American citizens." Only 22 percent stuck with Ed.
Byers wrote, "These results may have come as a surprise to Schultz -- neither he nor MSNBC PR immediately responded to a request for his reaction -- because the results of his viewer surveys almost always align with his own progressive worldview."
"It doesn't meet the moral or constitutional standard that we expect of any administration," Schultz said earlier this week. "We're losing the moral high ground by doing this."
On his radio show, Thom Hartmann railed against the majority POV of MSNBC viewers:
Once we've signed off on the policy that we can send a drone any damn well place we want and we can drop a bomb on anybody we want simply because our president said so, without due process, that then gives license to Mexico to send drones over Phoenix to bomb drug lords.
And it gives license to Canada to send drones over Montpelier, Vermont to take out the people who are stealing maple syrup.
And it arguably gives license to the Iranians to say, 'There's somebody helping develop one of those Stuxnet viruses in New York, [so] we're gonna take out that city block.'
Or China [could say] 'Hey, there's a dissident in so-and-so, let's take them out.'

A rash of people have been breaking into cars and then using the automatic garage door openers to gain access into residents' homes and steal property, Lodi Police Lt. Tod Patterson said.
Residents are leaving their cars parked in front of their home, and then thieves are breaking in or opening the car's unlocked doors to get the automatic garage door opener. They then use it to open the door and steal what is in the garage, Patterson said.

Hello and welcome to my sketchbook thread.
Here you will see my attempts to a.) overcome being intimidated artistically by my wife, the lovely and formidable Teigrob, b.) track my progress and c.) draw as well as my bride.
I have a loooooooong ways to go to reach her level, but you never reach the top of the mountain by just looking at the top from the bottom. It will take awhile as I stop drawing from time to time because of 1.) frustration at lack of perceived progress, 2.) life, specifically my two lovely children, and 3.) work, I work for the Evil Empire / Collective.
I decided to start with a candid shot of my sketchbook cover. I'm still a kid when it comes to stickers. Coupled with the fact that it makes it easy to identify my sketchbook at a glance.
Attachment 747061
The actual sketchbook page are all from reference. The woman is from Art Models book. The reference call Amazon Stringing Her Bow. A master copy of Michelangelo and Bridgman.
Attachment 747086
Structure of form, proportions, and perspective are my areas of greatest weakness.
Crits welcomed.

If you haven't noticed, a lot of media outlets have gotten worked up into a tizzy over the mere mention of death panels. The New York Times got so worked up, it went after a few conservatives outlets by name in its Aug. 13 issue.
"But the rumor [that Obama's health care proposal would create death panels] - which has come up at Congressional town-hall-style meetings this week in spite of an avalanche of reports laying out why it was false - was not born of anonymous e-mailers, partisan bloggers or stealthy cyberconspiracy theorists," Jim Rutenberg and Jackie Calmes wrote for the Times. "Rather, it has a far more mainstream provenance, openly emanating months ago from many of the same pundits and conservative media outlets that were central in defeating President Bill Clinton's health care proposals 16 years ago, including the editorial board of The Washington Times, the American Spectator magazine and Betsy McCaughey, whose 1994 health care critique made her a star of the conservative movement (and ultimately, New York's lieutenant governor)."
But just calling out the Washington Times just once wasn't enough. Rutenberg and Calmes took it a step further, calling the paper once again as "an outlet decidedly opposed to Mt. Obama (since corrected in the online version.)
"The specter of government-sponsored, forced euthanasia was raised as early as Nov. 23, just weeks after the election and long before any legislation had been drafted, by an outlet decidedly opposed to Mr. Obama, The Washington Times," Rutenberg and Calmes wrote.
Twenty-four hours later, the New York Times reconsidered its language charging The Washington Times as an outlet "opposed to Mr. Obama." The paper issued this ham-handed correction in its Aug. 15 issue.
"An article on Friday about the origins of the false rumor that President Obama's health care proposals would create government-sponsored panels to decide which patients were worthy of living referred imprecisely to the stance of The Washington Times, which shortly after the election published an editorial comparing some positions of the incoming administration to the euthanasia policies of the Third Reich,' the correction said. "In describing the newspaper as 'an outlet decidedly opposed to Mr. Obama," the article was referring to its opinion pages, not to its news pages."

Nordic protest after Ship to Gaza seizure
Swedish Radio News reports that the Nordic nations are planning a joint formal protest to Israel for its treatment of peace activists on the Ship to Gaza vessel Estelle. The Estelle was trying to bring supplies to the Gaza Strip by sea, when it was seized by Israeli forces in international waters Saturday.
Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt told the joint government-parliamentary Foreign Policy Council Monday that Sweden is not satisfied with how Israel has acted.
Sweden has still not received an explanation from the Israeli authorities why one of the Swedes on the Estelle has been separated from the others. The Ship to Gaza organisation says that activist Dror Feiler is to be charged, as an Israeli citizen, with aiding the enemy.
The Swedish foreign ministry says that Feiler has only Swedish citizenship. He was born in Israel but that citizenship was rescinded in 1983 when he became a Swedish citizen. Israel has confirmed this status to the Swedish foreign ministry.
One of the Swedish activists from the Ship to Gaza has been released by the Israeli authorities.

Red Hat is making a great deal of news at its annual Summit this week in Boston, such as going mobile, its partnership with Samsung, and the naming of a new CFO. Not to be overlooked is the partnership between Red Hat, Cisco and NetApp - all with deep roots in the Triangle - to drive more "cloud" and application solutions based on OpenStack. Here's a Hatter's view.
More turmoil at NetApp: Chair and CEO Tom Georgens is out
Still reeling from a disappointing quarterly earnings report and the layoffs of 500 workers (many of those cuts coming in RTP), storage tech firm NetApp now has to look for a new CEO In a terse announcement Monday, NetApp disclosed that chair and CEO Tom Georgens is out. Is the leadership change enough to right the company? One anlyst says no.
So what next for NetApp? 'Flash,' for revenues, layoffs to cut costs
Analysis: Another weak quarter financially led NetApp to announce 500 layoffs this week with many of those taking place at its campus in RTP. The storage technology device firm is facing increasing competition and is relying on "flash" offerings to rebuild revenue even as it cuts costs. Technology Business Research analyst Stephen Belanger offers his insight into what the company will do next.
NetApp cutting 500 jobs after disappointing earnings report
In an SEC filing Wednesday evening, data storage technology firm NetApp disclosed that it is laying off some 500 employees in a cost-cutting move. Many of those cuts are coming from NetApp's Triangle work force, sources say. NetApp won't spell out the number of local cuts but insists the firm remains "deeply committed" to North Carolina.
Sources: NetApp cutting 15 percent of its work force at RTP campus
NetApp, its stock price under pressure and with competition "disrupting" its data storage business, is cutting some 15 percent or 200 positions of its work force at the company's big campus in Research Triangle Park, sources say. NetApp says it can't comment.
Inside NetApp: Declining revenues means more reliance on VMware
Analysis: As revenue declines, NetApp turns to VMware to tap into the growing hyperconverged market, writes Stephen Belanger of Technology Business Research.
Data center forecast: Look for more hardware consolidation
In the first of three special reports, analysts at Technology Business Research offer a detailed analysis of what is likely to happen across the data center industry. Transformation will reach "unprecedented levels" in a market were Red Hat, Cisco, NetApp, IBM, Lenovo, Oracle and many others are major players. And each of the mentioned firms has a major presence in the Triangle. WTW Insiders can read the details.
NetApp doubling down on cloud, analytics, convergence
Analysis: NetApp has repositioned its portfolio to take advantage of opportunity by emphasizing its cloud, analytics and converged capabilities. Research Analyst Stephen Belanger takes an in-depth look at the storage technology firm, which has a major presence in RTP.
Split decision for NetApp: Earnings beat Street but forecast doesn't

NetApp dedicates huge R&D engineering lab in RTP
NetApp formally opens a new 155,000-square foot research and development lab focused on cloud computing technology and development at its growing campus in Research Triangle Park on Friday morning. Despite two recent rounds of layoffs across the company, NetApp continues to grow in N.C.
Inside NetApp earnings: Cost cuts challenge differentiation in 'cloud' market
Analysis: In its latest earnings report, NetApp reported less than expected revenue but higher earnings. However, revenue projections were below Street consensus. Kris Macomber of Technology Business Research analyzes what's up with NetApp, which has a huge campus in RTP.
NetApp's CEO replaces chairman in shakeup; shares drop 3.3%
Dan Warmenhoven, the chairman of the board at NetApp, is being replaced "effectively immediately" by the company's CEO, the storage device technology firm says. Warmenhoven, a former CEO of the firm, will leave the board in September. Also, the company promotes an executive to president with a $25,000 raise.
With long-time leader Warmenhoven out, what next for NetApp?
The sudden replacement of Dan Warmenhoven as chairman at NetApp and his retirement from the storage technology firm's board likely means more change is coming. As the company, which has a big presence in RTP, struggles to deal with the era of "cloud computing," CEO and now Chairman Tom Goergens has even more control over its future.
NetApp's profit rises 21% in fiscal Q3 even as revenue slips
Storage technology company NetApp reported fiscal third quarter results showing 21 percent increase in profits despite a slight revenue decline.
Inside NetApp: Finding ways to battle increasing 'cloud' competition

The worst commercial I have seen about a phone. On the plus side it makes me want to buy a Samsung or iPhone again lol.
By creating a short story, Nokia is able to pull the audience in. We see a factory-like setting of smog and dullness as the people line up to trade in a wad full of cash for something that is very uniform, and the same. The main character then imagines something simple- a colored phone, and everybody goes crazy.
This is called SYMBOLISM. Its when a symbol (aka a colored phone) represents a larger idea, and usually not literally.
The point is that Nokia wants to highlight the induviduality and freedom their product offers. While they choose to express it by the color of the phone instead of demoing the features, i feel it was a very artistic and honestly intelligent way to advertise.
Most consumers are not looking at the specs of the product they buy, if that were the case marketing would hardly matter. This is an advertisement that appeals to people who are looking for something different than the Samsung or iPhone that we all know wayyy to well. This ad hits home for the guy who is in college and works at a coffee shop and is still trying to find who he is. Or the young business woman who always keeps it professional, but with style and swag. Maybe she wants somebody to ask her "hey, what phone is that, i've never seen it before."
Anyways, as a long time member of this site, and an even longer viewer, I must say i am dissapointed in how the quality of news has changed and become soooo bias to the point that no other product can get the recognition it deserves, nor slide by without criticism that hardly even makes sense.
But then again, maybe im wrong. Nokia probably just wants to let consumers know it has different colored phones.
Windows Phone sucks!!! End of
1.Windows Phones suck, sorry to say it, had one and didn't like it one bit, none of them are in HD, their design is ridiculous, and windows mobile has had the same operating system for over 3 years, and when Windows 8 mobile starts it will only support new pre-installed phones, sorry to say it but it's truth.
2. aries_green_monkey
Dude this is an apple site, most time we complain that we have so many news about rumors, or the stupid court cases, and almost no mod news which the reason why the site was made in the first place, and now we have Windows phone news too. Sorry if you feel offended but the truth is that most of us don't care about Windows phone or Samsung and even less about their news.
Id rather be "same as the rest of the crowd" than "lumia".
Digging translation for Lumia word.
So, thanx, but no thanx.
Oh, btw, re-read this comment in the light of the translation meaning and think again about symbolism
Why wasn't there a story about this ad? http://youtu.be/WlsahuZ_4oM
This kinda ad is silly. It's like having to stand outside ur shop and tout your products as you bad mouth your competitors to passers by. It clearly shows a weak market share and (correctly or incorrectly) a weaker product. Especially wen ur competitor jus sits in his/her shop, to which people just flock, even queuing outside for days (in some cases). Better to make ads showcasing the great or unique features of your own products.
The bad part about a primary color exterior is that you are forced to stay with that color and the same color for all this big, plain tiles on your homescreen otherwise it'll look like garage.
So, if you really like bright yellow or other) and don't think you'll get bored with it for at least 2 years, go for it!
I am really loving all these anti-apple ads, while apple continues to get millions of orders in for the iPhone 5 and everybody still wants one and these android companies just can't get it through their heads that app,e has made a HUGE step

Gnats' Lugo rediscovers love of game
Mets prospect fans career-high 11 over seven shutout innings
By Robert Emrich / MiLB.com | August 10, 2013 7:34 PM ET
They say that you don't know what you have until it's gone. After learning that lesson the hard way, Seth Lugo has a newfound appreciation for baseball.
The Mets prospect recorded a career-high 11 strikeouts and gave up four hits over seven innings for his first South Atlantic League win as Class A Savannah blanked Hickory, 2-0, on Saturday night.
A 2011 34th-round Draft pick, Lugo (1-0) faced four batters over the minimum and recorded five of his final six outs via strikeouts. It was his second start since a promotion from short-season Brooklyn.
"I was taking my time and not rushing anything and keeping my mechanics together," Lugo said. "My catcher [Albert Cordero] helped me out on most of my pitches. I know I had a few [strikeouts] on the fastball, but I think most were on my curveball. That's always been my strikeout pitch."
After making his professional debut with Rookie-level Kingsport in 2011, Lugo missed all of the following season after undergoing lumbar fusion surgery. The Louisiana native was unable to resume baseball activities for about five months after the procedure, a layoff that proved to be a blessing in some ways.
"It was pretty rough. It was driving me crazy sitting at home watching SportsCenter," he said. "After my rehab, it really gave me a stronger drive to work harder and get better. I'm actually kind of glad it happened, it gave me a new respect for playing."
Lugo was promoted a week ago from the New York-Penn League to replace an injured Matt Koch in the Sand Gnats rotation. In his South Atlantic League debut, he gave up a run on two hits and fanned 10 over six innings against Augusta. With 21 strikeouts in two games with Savannah, he's almost matched his total with Brooklyn, where he had 27 over 34 1/3 innings.
Things started to come together for the 23-year-old right-hander in his last three starts with the Cyclones as he allowed five earned runs over 17 1/3 innings.
"Up in Brooklyn, I was having quite a few walks in my first few outings," Lugo said. "I talked to [manager] Rich Donnelly about it and realized that I needed to establish the strike zone better. When I'm doing that, it makes it a lot more fun to pitch, really. When my mechanics are as good as they are now, it's easy to have confidence and pound the strike zone."
Lugo turned a 1-0 lead over to Paul Sewald, who fanned four and pitched around two hits over the final two innings to notch his fifth save.
Jorge Rivero and Greg Pron delivered RBI singles for the Sand Gnats. Mets No. 5 prospect Brandon Nimmo singled and is batting .378 in 10 games in August.

Protect yourself as scams spring up during tax season
Even if your tax return has fewer zeros than Mitt Romney's, it contains a cornucopia of information prized by identity thieves. And as consumers have become more savvy about identity theft, criminals have come up with increasingly ingenious ways to hijack tax returns for nefarious purposes.
Sponsored Links
Here's a look at this year's most popular scams, and how to avoid them:
•Fake e-mails from tax preparation software providers. Consumers have been inundated with bogus e-mails claiming to contain important news from their tax software providers. TurboTax has seen a marked increase in reports of fraudulent e-mails, according to spokeswoman Julie Miller.
STORY: Phishing scam targets taxpayers who use tax software
STORY: Do tax apps on mobile devices work well?
STORY: IRS offers relief for unemployed taxpayers who can't pay
These so-called "phishing" e-mails are designed to steal financial information or infect recipients' computers with harmful viruses.
The increase in these e-mails illustrates how easily crooks adapt to changing times. In the past, crooks often used fake e-mails from the IRS to lure taxpayers into sharing personal information. The IRS responded by repeatedly reminding taxpayers that it never sends e-mails to individuals seeking personal information about their tax returns or refunds.
Tax software providers, on the other hand, routinely send e-mails to customers about the status of their refunds. As a result, even tech-savvy consumers may open an e-mail disguised to resemble an alert from TurboTax or H&R Block.
"If you've never used TurboTax, you can safely ignore" such e-mails, says Christine Frietchen editor of ConsumerSearch.com. "It's more confusing when you do have some kind of a relationship with the company."
There are, however, lots of warning signs. An attachment is a big tip-off that the e-mail is phony. Legitimate tax software companies will never ask you to open an attachment, even if you've started your tax return, Frietchen says.
A generic or overly familiar salutation is another sign that the e-mail is fake, Frietchen says. (She recalls receiving an e-mail purportedly from the IRS that addressed her as "Hello, dear.") Another warning sign: e-mails that contain grammatical errors or awkward language that sounds like "translated instructions for flat-pack furniture," Frietchen says.
VIDEO: IRS scams ramp up as tax season begins.
Still not sure? Instead of opening the e-mail, go to the tax software company's website and log in, Frietchen says. If the company sent you a legitimate alert, you should be able to find it there. You can also look for examples of fraudulent e-mails in the website's anti-fraud section.
•Fraudulent tax returns. Armed with stolen Social Security numbers, identity thieves have filed thousands of fraudulent tax returns and collected billions of dollars in tax refunds.
Victims usually don't know a tax return was filed in their name until their actual tax return is rejected by the IRS, says Lu-Ann Dominguez, a tax attorney with Gunster, a law firm based in Fort Lauderdale. Some taxpayers have had to wait up to a year for their refunds while the IRS investigated, she says.
To avoid having your identity stolen, guard your Social Security number, Dominguez says. Don't give it to your doctor, dentist or other business. Finishing your taxes early is another way to protect yourself: Once you've filed, a crook can't file in your name.
If you decide to hire a tax preparer, make sure the company is legitimate, Dominguez says. Some crooked preparers — or businesses that do tax preparation on the side — have worked with identity thieves to cook up fraudulent returns. Earlier this year, two Detroit tax preparers were charged with using stolen identities and Social Security numbers of recently deceased individuals to generate more than $800,000 in fraudulent refunds.
•Refund scams. Promoters of a new scheme targeted at senior citizens claim they can obtain refunds by filing for a "stimulus payment" based on the American Opportunity Tax Credit. Perpetrators have told victims that they can get a refund even if they don't normally file a tax return and haven't attended college in decades.
The IRS has stopped thousands of returns that falsely claim this credit.
Another variation of this scheme claims the credit is available to compensate individuals for taxes paid on groceries. Promoters often charge "exorbitant fees" to file for these credits and are typically long gone once the taxpayers realize they've been swindled, the IRS says.

Great product is everything advertised.
Pros:Easy to use
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
Good sturdy product

Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
The walker is light weight as described and the seat is ample is size.
Pros:The basket under the seat is a handy feature. The handles are just right for helping to rise from the seat.So far I like everything about it.

Cons:The seat is slightly too high even for 5' 5" height. Anyone shorter would be swinging their feet when sitting.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
I like the function of the rollator just fine, except it sits a little too high and I am just a little too wide to be comfortable for long periods of time. I also did not get notification of when the walker was sent, only after I talked to someone did I know that it was being delivered that day.
I ordered this bariatric walker on a Monday and it arrived the next day - and that was with standard shipping. Amazing. This walker is a God-Send for my father. It is very strong and large enough to accommodate his 350 pound frame. The large wheels make it great for outdoors. I highly recommend it. Thank you.

Two quick stories from the world of RPGs. First, the web is alive with comment on some long-rumoured 'adult' content set to feature in Bioware's sci-fi adventure Mass Effect. Two videos are doing the rounds, one showing an alien woman performing a private dance in a futuristic night club. It looks like someone in a cheap swimsuit attempting to stand-up on a wet surface. The other sequence, appearing on IGN (there's a link here) is billed as an alien girl-on-girl love-in. It will in no way live up to what you are currently imagining.
Stilted, awkward and obtuse, 'sex' in videogames is still a ridiculous concept, not helped, of course, by the squeamishly Calvanistic leanings of the ESRB - see the laughable 'Hot Coffee' scandal for more on that. You'll be required to enter your age before watching the Private Dancer video on Gamevideos.com - you won't be required to enter your age to see, say, this video of a Dead Rising TV ad in which slavering zombies eviscerate a victim with their bare hands. This makes perfect sense, doesn't it?
In other RPG-related news this week, it seems that Peter Hines of Bethesda has confirmed that an Elder Scrolls MMORPG is in production. Rumours have been circulating for a while, ignited by the setting up of a new online games division within Bethesda and purchase by the studio's parent company of the Elderscrollsonline.com URL (more here).
Can the world cope with another huge, addictive massively multiplayer fantasy world? Aren't we all already addicted to at least one? Not according to a recent Forbes article which suggests virtual worlds are more about hype than population substance.

Prime Minister
The plan will raise the capital gains tax, increase levies on the highest earners, cut government spending and reduce funding to regional administrations. It was passed by decree, meaning it will take effect immediately and must be approved by Parliament within 60 days.
"Our heart is bleeding as we have always maintained that we wouldn't put our hands in the pockets of Italians, but the international scenario has deeply changed," Mr Berlusconi said after the cabinet meeting on Friday night in Rome. "The measures go in the direction that the ECB [European Central Bank] wanted."
The ECB had asked Italy to make more budget cuts before it would buy the nation's debt on the market in a bid to arrest surging borrowing costs. Yields on Italy's 10-year bond have fallen 105 basis points since the ECB started the purchases on August 8, after reaching a euro-era high of 6.3 per cent on concern Italy would become Europe's next debt victim.
Mr Berlusconi was confident the decree would not need a confidence vote in Parliament. The Northern League, Mr Berlusconi's main ally, was satisfied with the measures, Industry Ministry Paolo Romani said. The league's leader, Umberto Bossi, had said he would have fought against pension cuts.
But Italy's biggest trade union, the CGIL, called last night for a general strike against the the austerity plans.
Union chief Susanna Camusso said the CGIL (Italian General Confederation of Labour) would meet on August 23 to fix a date for the strike.
The package includes €20 billion of deficit-reduction measures to trim the budget gap to 1.4 per cent of gross domestic product next year. Another €25 billion of cuts will come in 2013 to allow a balanced budget a year earlier than pledged in the government's original €48 billion plan last month.
Under the package, the capital gains tax will be increased from 12.5 per cent to 20 per cent, and the highest earners will pay an extra 5 per cent tax on income over €90,000 a year and 10 per cent on income of more than €150,000. The wealth tax would be applied from this year and fetch about €1 billion a year, along with taxes on gambling and tobacco and a crackdown on tax evasion, Finance Minister Giulio Tremonti said.
Contributions to regional entities and administrations would be cut by €9 billion over the two years, and €8.5 billion trimmed from government ministries. A levy on energy companies was expected to generate about €2 billion, Mr Tremonti said.
The government approved the liberalisation of professional services and local public service companies and measures to make local labour contracts possible, which gives legal backing to contracts struck by car maker Fiat for two of its plants. It also approved Italy's contribution to the expanded European Union rescue facility
"While the impact of service sector liberalisation and privatisations may be positive on medium-term growth, the budget cuts are likely to have quite negative effects on the short-term GDP [gross domestic product] dynamic," Citigroup economists in London wrote. "We expect Italian GDP growth to slow to close to zero in 2012 and 2013."
Mr Tremonti said the government did not plan to revise growth forecasts, even though the 2011 deficit might be lower than originally predicted, as some new measures took immediate effect. Italian economic growth has trailed the euro-region expansion for more than a decade, fuelling concern among investors that balancing the budget without spurring growth won't be enough to lower a €1.9 trillion debt.
Even with the drop in the country's bond yields on ECB buying, the cost of insuring against an Italian default reached a euro-era record this week.
Mr Tremonti said problems would persist until a plan to sell so-called common eurobonds to fund member countries was approved.

Game Details:
Amway Center, Orlando, FL
Indiana Pacers (23-15) @ Orlando Magic (13-24)
Date: 01/16/2013 Time: 7:00pm
Radio: FM 96.5 and AM 580 WDBO, AM 1270 WRLZ
Television: Fox Sports Florida
Game Intro News:
The Indiana Pacers had little trouble picking up their first road win of the new year last time out. A matchup with the Orlando Magic wouldn't appear to give them too much of a challenge either.The Pacers will try to keep rolling Wednesday night when they visit the Magic, losers in 11 of 12 and a season-high six in a row at home.
Indiana (24-15) has won 14 of 18 but had also dropped three straight on the road before delivering a 103-76 thumping of lowly Charlotte on Tuesday. The Pacers, who hadn't won away from Indiana since Dec. 22, held the Bobcats to 34.7 percent shooting and Roy Hibbert led a group of four players in double figures with 18 points.
It was the eighth time this season that Indiana has allowed fewer than 80 points and it's giving up only 88.9 per game. That's helped the Pacers compensate for an offense that's averaging just 91.3.
"Our defense is a beast. We're leading in a number of different defensive categories. We have great length and these guys are committed to trying to be the best defense in the NBA," coach Frank Vogel said. "(Our offense) can get clicking and we can get really hot at times and when it does, like tonight, look at what happened.
"We are trying to commit to the running game more. We got 19 fast-break points in the first half. Big difference in the game. We're playing good basketball."
The Magic (13-24), meanwhile, have not been playing good basketball.

Instead, Brett has demonstrated the same trademark flaws he's always had. His knack for losing focus vexed the Phillies sorely just when they needed him most. Instead of seizing the moment and becoming a true ace, Myers fell apart.
Far from demonstrating command, Myers repeatedly delivered fat pitches with men on base, telegraphed fastballs in fastball counts, walked batters and made ill-conceived two-strike pitches. With his team struggling and badly in need of him, Myers lasted just four and a third innings and three and a third innings in back-to-back starts.
What does this mean for Myers and the Phillies?
Irate fans may want to trade Myers for a truckload of cream-filled Ho-Hos, but neither Myers nor the Phillies should panic. Myers is still a frontline pitcher and a major piece of the Phillies puzzle. He may still settle into a dominating groove and help the Phillies dig out of their deep April hole.
And yet a harsher truth emerges from these early losses. Brett Myers is not the ace the Phillies need to lead them to a World Series Trophy.
Even if Myers does go on to have a tremendous regular season, it is plain to see that maintaining command has never been his strong suit. With the pressure on him to stop the Phillies bleeding, Myers faltered badly.
If the Phillies are going to overcome their pathetic start, their star-crossed destiny, their booing fans, their lack of playoff experience and their bullpen flaws, their ace will need to have ice water in his veins. Myers' blood boils and sometimes he takes himself right out of games.
Winning the division will be difficult enough, but the playoffs are a whole 'nother ball of wax. If Myers can't manage to regain composure during an April losing streak, how will he react to the playoffs? By now it's clear Myers is simply best suited as a number two, game two starter.
Consider last season's Detroit Tigers, who seemed a mismatch for the St. Louis Cardinals in the World Series and yet melted down under pressure. The Cardinals, unlike the Tigers, had that magic elixir known as playoff experience. It proved enough to win the day.
Aware of the problem, GM Pat Gillick alertly signed Freddy Garcia, who may yet emerge as the Phillies ace. But with Garcia's arm troubles, the odds seem against him regaining top form.
If the Phillies hope to contend this year, Cole Hamels will have to emerge as the undisputed ace of the staff. Of all the starting pitchers, Hamels has the best combination of stuff and poise. With Jamie Moyer as a mentor, Hamels stands to grow by leaps and bounds from start to start. Certainly he hasn't hit his ceiling, while one begins to suspect that Myers has.
Brett Myers at times appears to be his own worst enemy while Hamels demonstrates a focus and unflappability beyond his years. Hamels is an ace waiting to happen and the role appears wide open. Myers sure isn't making a case against the idea. Maybe Freddy Garcia will swoop in and seize the initiative. Or maybe Myers will put it all together in his next few starts. Otherwise, expect Hamels to overtake him on the depth chart by this summer.
The 2007 Phillies will not contend until a true ace emerges. Myers exposed himself as not ready for prime time, Garcia remains a huge question mark and Cole Hamels is still so green. One of them has to rise to the challenge, or Pat Gillick should start saving up to out-bid George Steinbrenner and Omar Minaya for Johann Santana.

With just three episodes remaining in the first season of Tyler Perry's The Haves and The Have Nots on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), we would like to reflect upon the only reason we love to watch this show, and his name is Aaron O'Connell A.K.A. Wyatt on the show.
Some may know him as one of the two hot plumbers in the sexy Liquid Plumber commercial (Video Below). Aaron told The Back Lot how that commercial led him to his current role:
The Haves and The Have Nots has become one of OWN's biggest hits with a weekly serving of betrayals, affairs, manipulations and of course a growing gay story line.
Jeffery's character (played by actor Gavin Houston) has vehemently denied that he's gay, even though a recent episode revealed him giving a hungry gaze at Wyatt's amazingly sculpted body. TBL explains the scene:
With the September 3rd season finale quickly approaching, and an upcoming episode titled "No More Hiding?," will Jeffrey finally come out of closet and will Wyatt reveal his secret love for him?! We will have to wait and see, in the meantime, lets enjoy Aaron's gorgeous work below:

Encourage every rape victim and those they love to hold their heads up high and not be afraid of acknowledging what happened.
They can call that person up and question them and say, 'Look, I've got a rape victim.
In the last panel in the comic, a sobbing F5 key referred to as "the rape victim" is being chased by an infuriated blog monster.
Columnist George Will thinks "rape victim" has become a coveted label.
What is certainly one of the most important reasons why a rape victim rarely gets pregnant, and that's physical trauma.

This was an investigation of a rape victim, not an investigation of a rape suspect.
This is at least better than the Code of Hammurabi, which considered the rape victim an adulteress.
Notably, Clinton does not actually laugh at the rape victim, so any anger over the laughter is not in defense of the victim.

Okay a couple things on this thread I disagree with, but maybe Im wrong. If you see something I mention that you believe please refute it cus Im not quoting anyone in particular.
1. Tobi and Madara are telepathically linked and thats how Madara knows the signs.
If this is true, then why didnt Tobi know madara had been resurrected unti Naruto told him? Also, Kabuto didnt mention it to Tobi, he told Tobi it had no weakness (besides like becoming super popular or some gay sh*t like that). I'm not even sure kabuto knew.
2. Tobi might be some EDO that escaped Tobirama <--Hence the name.
Have to disagree with this also. Tobis limbs have been torn off several times and theyve never regenerated like an edo...they seem to be made of Zetsu Goo. Although this makes me think of who Tobirama revived, he had to revive some one if he invented the jutsu and is this where Madara learned how to escape it?
3. Why didnt Tobirama escape when Oro brought him back
A lot of ppl have already done a good job explaining this...but yeah, he was a mindless Zombie and it seems like you can only do it when the Edo is being released. He must have known about it though. Also some one brought up a good point of Kishi writing that part of the story like 7 years ago... so I guess plot holes happen every now and then...No harm done.

This quest is not available in game.
Find Tyranis Malem in Desolace.
We were brought here after the orcs slaughtered all our guards and servants. Oh, the terrible things they did to them! I thought surely they would kill us right there and then, but it became obvious they had other plans.
Tyranis attempted to speak to them. I think he wanted to impress them with his knowledge of the arcane... I'm not sure why.
Please, I can't leave here until I know what's happened to my brother. Find him, then come back for me when his fate is known.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper will come face-to-face this week with Pauline Marois for the first time since she was elected premier of Quebec, but instead of a clashing of swords there might be a meeting of the minds.
The two leaders will both be travelling to the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) for the Francophonie Summit, and so far their governments seem to agree on what they hope to accomplish — and are speaking pleasantly about each other to boot.
Canada, Quebec and New Brunswick are full member governments of the Francophonie, a concession agreed to by former prime minister Brian Mulroney in the 1980s.
"I fully expect as members, subscribing to the values and ideals of the Francophonie, that Canada and New Brunswick and Quebec of course will all sing from the same songsheet, which is to promote the values and the ways that we can see progress accomplished," Bernard Valcourt, Canada's minister of state for the Francophonie, said in an interview.
Mr. Valcourt's sentiments are markedly different than the first pointed statements the Harper government made about the election of separatist Marois and the revisiting of "old constitutional battles."
Both Mr. Valcourt and Jean-Francois Lisee, Quebec's international relations minister, see the troubles in the DRC as one of the major issues of the summit.
The country's 2011 presidential elections were marred by irregularities and crackdowns on opponents.
Mr. Lisee said opposition and civil society groups in the country have supported holding the summit as a way to put pressure on the government of Joseph Kabila. The country has provincial and local elections scheduled for 2013.
"We won't go there to legitimize an election tainted with irregularities, we're going with a message of our determination to support the forces of democracy in the DRC for the next elections," Mr. Lisee told The Canadian Press.
"That's what we want the Congolese population to take from our presence, that we've come to help them rediscover democracy, not to lend credibility to past elections."
Mr. Valcourt echoed the view that the summit is an opportunity to raise human rights issues. He said he intends to meet with opposition figures, as he did during a visit in June.
"The first point that I'm sure Canada is going to make since we're going to be in the DRC is to encourage and also to loudly call for actions by the DRC to improve the situation in terms of democratization, in terms of the respect for human rights and also the rule of law...," Mr. Valcourt said.
Canada and Quebec also intend to support a declaration at the summit to help ban so-called blood mining, where products are illegally extracted and used to fund conflicts.
Mr. Lisee said that Ms. Marois will likely use her opening speech to talk about women's equality — she being the only female leader expected to attend. And he said she'll emphasize the protection of the French language and Quebec's commitment to green energy.
He said the two governments are not on the same "wavelength" on a number of issues, but Mr. Lisee also noted he had good relations with Mr. Valcourt.
"I'm not expecting any stunts from the federal government, and if the federal government puts forward its position on greenhouse gases or on Israel or on something else...we'll accept it for what it is," Mr. Lisee said.
"We'll expect to be accepted for what we are too."
The Francophonie summit takes place between October 12-14.Report Typo/Error

2 Days in New YorkClose
For Parents
Common Sense Note
Parents need to know that 2 Days in New York is the follow-up to 2 Days in Paris, both directed by and starring Julie Delpy. It follows the same basic formula as the original, focusing on a couple forced to address issues in their relationship while surrounded by her very French (and very outrageous) family. There are some scenes with bickering and fairly graphic sexual banter (including a running joke that references oral sex), adult characters drink and smoke pot, and there's plenty of swearing ("f--k," "s--t," etc.). The real drama comes from watching Delpy's character and her live-in boyfriend, played by Chris Rock, navigate the rocky shoals of a real relationship, which may not be especially relatable to young people who've had few of their own.
- Sexual Content
- Several graphic discussions about sex, and a few scenes feature a couple who appear to be fooling around under the covers. One woman walks around half-dressed, with brief glimpses of her breast and butt. A married couple flirts and talks about why they can't have sex with an apartment full of guests. A running joke pairs Mingus' name with a term for oral sex.
- Violence
- Some intense bickering and one minor scrap as a woman tries to grab a document from a man and they end up wrestling on the floor.
- Language
- Plenty of swearing, including "f--k," "s--t," "bulls--t," "motherf----r," "d--k," "ass," "bitch," and more.
- Social Behavior
- A real relationship can be real work, but they're usually worth the effort, and negotiating through the conflicts can make a couple stronger ... even if one of them comes with some quirky and unusual family members.
- Consumerism
- Many stores are visible in the background of scenes shot on location in New York City.
- Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol
- Several scenes show people drinking at dinner and at parties -- and sometimes smoking cigarettes as well. Some characters smoke pot in a few scenes, and a man completes a drug deal in front of a young girl. She later emulates what she witnessed by trying to sell real grass, picked in the park, to a classmate.
- Age appropriate
- Not an issue
- Depends on your kid and your family
- Not appropriate for kids of the age most likely to want to see it

Stuart Harling ambushed Cheryl Moss, 33, as she took a cigarette break near woods behind St George's hospital, Hornchurch, Essex, in April, last year.
Jurors heard a statement from a prison guard alleging that Mr Harling admitted killing Mrs Moss because he was bored and could do it again.
The 19-year-old denies murder, claiming diminished responsibility.
But the prosecution claim he was living out a violent fantasy which evolved after he researched murder and serial killers on the internet.
Belmarsh prison officer Christopher Potter was guarding Harling during a suicide watch in August, last year, after Harling was seen making a noose from a sheet.
In the police statement, Mr Potter said: "On the day he murdered her, he was just bored. He could not rule out doing it again."
Mr Potter said he sensed Harling had wanted to speak after watching CSI on television.
He went to bed but got up again. "I got the impression he wanted to talk," Mr Potter told police.
"I might have asked him why he did it. He said he was just bored. He went on to explain he got bored very easily."
The trial continues.

Jessica Simpson: 'My Body Is Not Bouncing Back' Post Pregnancy
"I let myself indulge in everything I wanted because it was the first time I was ever pregnant," Simpson, 32 — who welcomed daughter Maxwell Drew on May 1 with fiance Eric Johnson — told USA Today. "I wanted to enjoy it."
But now the singer-actress-fashion-designer is paying the price.
"I didn't realize [the weight] didn't all come off with the baby," explained Simpson.
The Weight Watchers spokeswoman is sticking to a strict diet — forgoing her favorite comfort food, mac and cheese — and hardcore cardio sweat sessions. Simpson also takes time off from mommy duty to work with trainer to the stars Harley Pasternak four or five times a week.
While she has shed pounds each week, her waistline isn't where she'd like it to be. Still, Simpson will begin appearing in ads for the famous weight-loss program next week.
"I'm not a supermodel," admits Simpson. "My body is not bouncing back like a supermodel. I'm just your everyday woman who is trying to feel good and be healthy for her daughter, her fiance and herself."
Do you think Simpson will get her body back? Weigh in below.

Indonesian Chief Prosecutor to Brief MPs on Timor Probe Pact
The government will try to allay concerns about an accord between Jakarta and UN officials over a joint investigation into last year's violence in East Timor, Indonesia's top prosecutor said Wednesday.
"The memorandum of understanding, which was signed by Foreign Minister Alwi Shihab, will be explained to the People's Representative Council (DPR) tomorrow," said Attorney General Marzuki Darusman, after a cabinet meeting.
The DPR, backed by the armed forces, has strongly criticized the accord signed by Shihab and the UN Transitional Administration in East Timor (UNTAET) in February in East Timor.
And they have rejected several attempts by Darusman's office to quiz 22 suspects and witnesses, including military and police officers, objecting to UNTAET investigators joining the questioning.
The accord allows for an UNTAET investigator to be present at the session without being able to direct question suspects and witnesses.
Darusman has said the accord was intended to "prevent an international tribunal" for Indonesian military and police officers.
But the lawyers for the suspects, MPs and the military have said the accord was "illegal and unpatriotic."
Human rights activists and international community have said top-ranking Jakarta military officers -- including then army chief General Wiranto -- have exact knowledge and masterminded the massive devastation in East Timor.
Hundreds of people were killed in the wave of violence and arson, led by militias raised and trained by the Indonesian army, which erupted after the territory's independence vote on August 30, 1999.
More than 250,000 East Timorese fled to neighboring West Timor and around 120,000 are still believed to be in squalid camps there where the militias reportedly continued to rule.
The militia followed the refugees to West Timor when international troops arrive in the East to halt the rampage.
UN human rights chief Mary Robinson has warned that if Indonesia fails to bring those responsible to trial, the suspects could be tried by an international tribunal -- JAKARTA (AFP)

Hello Russell
Could not help but notice you mentioning about the Thurtells changing their
surnames to Murray.
I have a very dear cousin who is a farmer just outside Knysna who I think
belongs to the Murray's who changed there surname.
He has a large collection of Murray antiquities which are worth a fortune.
Have you ever come across Rodger Murray ? One of his ancestors was a poet
Lauriat, another a doctor and I am sure he mentioned more.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
kind regards

I look forward to part 2 as well, since it contains some of the best stuff. It's great. Thanks for the compliments and review!
wow dude
great style and textures. Haven't seen anything much like this stylisticly before, with the paper textures and whatnot. Great flash.
Yeah, I personally enjoyed how they turned out myself, definitely adds some much needed variety to the backgrounds. Thanks!
Earned every point. Very nice story. The animation was great, fitting too. Poor Glenn, he's so clueless haha. Keep up the good work!
This was very good. Glenn is exactly like how I am around this time of the year, he just doesn't care. I was able to relate, so I liked it.
liked it
Liked the style and how yo told a story with hardly any words, but was she supposed to be his teacher? o_O; I hope Im supposed to see it differently lol
No, she's fellow student. She'd be kind of young for a teacher, wouldn't you say? Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the review!

You are so getting front page.
I didn't really quite got the game, what you have to do in it, because I was lazy and didn't read all of the tutorial. I started hitting that ghost and nothing happened.. Oh well, if I don't get it, someone else is going to get it. I like it. It has good story first, graphic and sound - everything was just perfect.
I'm going to see your other flashes. This one was just brilliant.
You gotta hit the ghost and destroy it. Its a training dummy.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
really good : )
games like this really deserve the front page, probably that game will be on the front page, really good though
Thanks! :)

This game prooves that you can make amazing RPG's with flash, too. I don't personally like these type of games, but viewing this from a perspective of turn-based RPG fans, I'm sure this is the best creation of game within the world of flash.
Thanks! We've have fun doing it in Flash. Took us 10 months! =x
