|Re: [New Behavior - Maybe]Connections timing out even with validation query??
|Thu, 17 Jul 2008 11:52:01 GMT
So I changed the 1000*60 to 60000, and this morning, the site responds properly. Of course, this is kind of marginal science since a collection of invidious daemons could have lined up to hit the site every hour overnight. But assuming that these changes are responsible for the correct response, I'm unclear about what it is in my situation which makes them necessary. Thoughts?

Portable Affinity Designer v188.8.131.52 RC Win64
Portable Affinity Designer 220.127.116.11 RC Win64|Windows(x64)|rar|336 mb
Professional Graphic Design Software, Affinity Designer is the fastest, smoothest, most precise vector graphic design software available.
Whether you're working on graphics for marketing materials, websites, icons, UI design or just like creating cool concept art, Affinity Designer will revolutionize how you work.
Affinity Designer is the fastest, smoothest, most precise vector graphic design software available. Whether you're working on branding, concept art, print projects, icons, UI, UX, or web mock ups, Affinity Designer will revolutionise how you work.
And you don't have to take our word for it. Affinity Designer is averaging 5 stars in over 10,000 App Store ratings worldwide-and was Editor's Choice from day one, was featured as one of the best new apps of 2014, and received the highly coveted Apple Design Award at WWDC in June 2015 for its incredible performance and capabilities.
The new constraints feature allows users to control the position or size of an object relative to its container, making it possible to create reusable elements performing in a pseudo-responsive manner.
The symbols feature allows users to have multiple instances of the same object-where editing one object will edit them all simultaneously.
Snapping power is a new feature based around creating easy, customisable alignment through grids and snap to pixel, while instant live feedback makes it a doodle to monitor the precision of your design.
The asset management panel allows users to drag and drop items into or out of the panel for easy access.
Here's additional context on some of these new features.
Symbols empower designers to have multiple instances of the exact same object. It works like this: If they edit just one object, they'll be able to edit all of the objects at the same time.
Designers can now use constraints to precisely control either the size or position of an object relative to its container. This makes it entirely possible to produce reusable elements that function in a pseudo-responsive fashion.
One of the more popular features of Affinity Designer is snapping power, which users regularly rave about. Thanks to features like snap-to-pixel and customizable grids, alignment is a cinch. At the same time, instant live feedback makes it a breeze for designers to keep close track of their design's precision.
Now let's switch gears to the asset management panel. This is another vital element of a much smoother and efficient workflow. It enables designers to simply drag and drop items either into or out of the panel. This makes for hassle-free access when it's necessary.
Here's a helpful and brief explainer video on all of the big, new features that version 1.5 has in store for designers.
and more....
Here's a complete rundown of the major components of this big update:
* Symbols
* Constraints
* Asset management
* Text styles
* Massive export improvements
* New color picker tool
* Style improvements

|Amherst's Rauh Named NESCAC Rookie of the Week
Amherst's Rauh Named NESCAC Rookie of the Week
October 30, 2006
AMHERST, MA – Amherst College first-year running back Aaron Rauh (Hudson, OH) was named the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) Rookie of the Week after his outstanding performance this past Saturday against Tufts University. Rauh was the heart and soul of the Jeffs' running game on Saturday, rushing for 133 yards on 14 carries, an average of 9.5 yards-per-carry, with a long of 64 yards, leading Amherst to a 24-6 victory over the Jumbos.
Through six weeks of the 2006 season, Rauh leads his team in yards-per-carry (5.0) and rushing touchdowns (3). Rauh combines with sophomore Eric NeSmith (Newark, NJ) for a young, deadly combination in Amherst's running game that is currently second in the NESCAC in rushing offense (135 yards-per-game). NeSmith is fifth in the NESCAC in rushing yards-per-game (58.2), while Rauh sits tied for seventh (55.7).
With Rauh's Rookie of the Week honor, a member of the Amherst College football team has now received a weekly NESCAC honor in each of the past three weeks.
Rauh returns to the field this Saturday where he will look to lead the Jeffs to a NESCAC victory on the road against a very good Trinity College team that leads the NESCAC in rushing defense, allowing just 51.8 yards-per-game. Game time is set for 12:30 p.m.

Ratings for Dr. Darren Cowley
Dr. Darren Cowley has been my psychiatrist for approximately 6 months and he is absolutely fantastic. I should know as I have been seeing psychiatrists on a regular basis since I was 24 and I am now 57. He is very knowledgeable about psychotropic medications, works tirelessly, has a sense of humour, highly empathetic, available 24/7 in times of REAL need, and I trust him with my life. Somebody has written he is money-hungry, where as far as I am concerned, someone who is on a disability pension, this couldn't be further than the truth. Out of all the psychiatrists I have seen since the age of 24, most on Wickham Terrace, Dr. Cowley has to be the most knowledgeable and up to date, helped by his youthfulness as so many psychiatrists are at retirement age. This does not make them less effective, just not as knowledgeable about psychiatry in the 21st Century. Dr. Darren Cowley is in great demand as a psychiatric consultant in the PUBLIC system as well as Private, so very busy, and I think he needs to be cloned. I am very grateful to be in the hands of such a lovely and gentle psychiatrist. Carol L.P. da Costa-Roque
Seemed to be a frustrated surgeon who didn't get the traineeship he wanted so ended up in psych instead -it happens more than you think. Was informing patients AFTER their appointment that his fee had increased and charging them the higher amount for that visit. Eucalyptus tissues?!? still there the 2nd (and final) appointment despite informing him they were not suitable for wiping away tears, as they burn the eyes. Limited in his clinical skills, he wanted to diagnose me as bipolar despite the fact that I fit none of the DSM-IV diagnostic criteria, then tried to get me to agree by suggesting I was cyclothymic - medical Latin term for bipolar.

Improve your cardiovascular fitness as you run to propel your own wings into its flightpath.
The top and bottom layer of a kite meets at a tapered point much like an aeroplane wing. The kite's layer on top curves slightly from the leading edge of the kite while the bottom layer has a flat surface design. The support structure of this light surface wingspan typically rests on a crossbar shaped frame also made of a light material like plastic. The air tries to pass over both the top and bottom layers of the kite wing causing it to lift off the ground as the smaller surface area at the belly of the kite allows the air to move over it faster causing the kite to rise.
A kite meeting moving air will take to flight, keeping it flying may require some airspeed, which may require some quick footwork on your part. No motor means much movement on your part. Much movement on you part means much success at launch. Much success means much skill. Acquiring much skill means acquiring much fun. Acquiring much fun means acquiring a kite. Hip hip hooray; up, up and away.

Shall I meet you guys in EuroTunnel? Going from London...
We should meet in the terminal bit, where the shops are, then all go in convoy lol! "Sorry mate, you cant go in that carriage, Audi only"
Sounds good to me, ill pm you closer to the time to confirm things
I think that is a good idea.
If we want to be on the same shuttle we well need a ticket with the same letter, which means meeting before we go through the main gates, at the service station i recon would be best like last time.
Yeah your right Alex. I'll try not to fly past it this time
This might help you chaps.
Envious of your plans - enjoy!
Cheers mitch! Do they do group buys?

I'm off to Germany (mosel Valley) for a week and then on for a further week in Switzerland (near Davos) on the 14 June. It cannot come soon enough.
With regard to the Vignette - it very easy to purchase one as you cross the border. When I cross on the A5 at Basel it only takes a couple of minutes and you don't even have to get out of the car!

22:45h drive home/get hotel/crash at mine...
09:00h Sleep!
These are very approximate times, I'll work them out exactly if everone is happy with the above. Does anyone have a problem with us leaving on Friday morning? if so we can leave a day later (or Friday night maybe) but get back very late on the Monday.
The hotels might be a bit of an issue, in that we might end up in 2 or 3 different hotels depending on availability, but they are all in the same areas.
Does anyone have any comments/suggestions/questions?
Mr Alex Green aka Maximillion Cooper... excellent once again for the organisation... sounds sweet and mouth watering just thinking about it.
As for me not a defo yet still deciding... Got a mate who probs will come too with his RS4 if he can sort out his cover for work.
Fingers crossed i can go.... esp after our last experience.
hope so too!
Google maps/earth is good to check the route. Especially google earth, you can see the awesome mountains and roads in 3D!
That is a good plan!!
I will decide next week if I am up to.. I might prefer to be windsurfing in Portugal.
If I decide to go I will join you only on the first two days, Sunday I take my route to monaco, Nice, Barcelona and then Porto as I am on holiday I might take the entire week driving about...
But possibly I will be windsurfing instead... I have to make up my mind yet...
Wind surfing?! pa! nothing compared to Audisportball 2000!!
Plan looks good, can someone give me a rough figure for the petrol costs? As this will be the biggest bill of the weekend im just trying to plan my finances in advance.
ok so totalling my figures up for 2 people im estimating a sum of around £1200, is this fairly accurate? This is based on:
1. £150 hotels
2. £200 Eurotunnel
3. £150 spending money
4. £100 insurance (for my codriver) and european breakdown cover (£45)
5. £20 vignette
6. £600 petrol (im getting 35MPG at the moment so i may spend slightly less than the 8P's on fuel)
It will be a lot less than that mate, I recon including everything < £900, my first trip to the verdon gorge was around 1900 miles and two nights in a hotel - worked out at about £350 per person (me and a co-driver) so around £700 total.
I'll work it out later...
The route above adds up to 1770 miles, so say 1800 at 24mpg = 75 Gallons = 340 litres = about £400.
Ouch, so add another £140 odd on there.
Great, £900 does sound more reasonable! Im really looking forward to this now, the only thing holding me back is my codriver, but if he backs out im sure there's others who'd love to come
Ill just have to drive really sensibly on the way down then lol
It'll be well worth it too! Trust me, this is going to be amazing!!
Drive like a total granny an you'll do 600 miles in a tank and a half :thumbsup: Although I don't think I've ever got more than 320 miles out of a tank! But I don't give the S an easy time!
Bloody hell, i must drive like a real nerd, im getting 400-420 on a regular basis, dont worry guys ill do my best to keep up lol
Wes G
jamiekip + another S3? + an R32?
Ian W
My mate Steve in his MR2
siu00adg + my mate Adam
S3 Big Andy
mitch78 + mate Bob
I've just sent a mail to everyone on the list asking whether they can confirm if they can come or not.
We have plently of time, but it would be good to finialise the plan as soon as possible making sure everyone is happy with it.
Separate names with a comma.

About StratusPROgramming
StratusPROgramming replied to StratusPROgramming's topic in For BeginnersThanks for the input guys, I will defiantly take it into consideration.
StratusPROgramming replied to Manill66's topic in For BeginnersI've had some success with Slick2D in the past (assuming you game is 2D). There is a tutorial series on youtube for it [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/thenewboston/videos?query=slick"]http://www.youtube.com/user/thenewboston/videos?query=slick[/url]. I haven't watched it myself but have watched some of the other videos by the same guy and he's pretty good. If you're making a rpg you'll probably want to include a scripting engine. LUA or python are probably the best.
StratusPROgramming posted a topic in For BeginnersIn years past I've tried to make games a few times. Each time I've had limited success. However I've been programming for a good three years and now that I've learned to program, I've decided it's time for me to make a serious attempt at making a game. As far as the game I'm planning to make. As a kid, one of my favorite games what BoxHead 2 Player. It was a top-down isometric flashgame in which a player (or two) would run around shooting zombies with various guns and explosives. Me and me friends spent hours playing this. [url="http://www.crazymonkeygames.com/Boxhead-2Play-Rooms.html#game"]Here[/url] is a link to the flash game if your would like to see it. The game is not two complex, I definitely don't want to have to deal with 3D or OpenGL so I think that for a 2D sprite based game like this Slick2D or SFML would work just fine. And although java is not the best for games, it would be able to handle something as light as this quite easily. I do most of my work in Java, yet while I do not have the same mastery of C/C++, I am not unfamiliar with it. My hope is to become a game developer and I know that most commercial game are written in C/C++. My question is should I use Java/Slick2D which I am more familiar but will not prepare me as well for the future or should I use C/C++/SFML(or SDL?) which I do not know too well, but will need more in the coming years. If anyone has any insight, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Stark spent eleven years in hell and he doesn't want to go back, but sometimes he has to admit that resurrection sucks. His job as Lucifer's bodyguard puts him in the path of zombies and other rogue monsters. Recently, however, it has also placed him in proximity to Brigitte Bardo, a French porno film star now aspiring to thrust her curvaceous body into more artistic pursuits. With his libido working overtime, Stark must remind himself to keep his mind on dangerous business. A sizzling series.

What a great follow up to the first novel. What I love most about Richard Kadrey is his no nonsense writing style. The reader doesn't have to muttle through page upon page of painfully detailed descriptions of minor characters and places. No whiny girls, no annoyingly benevolent heroes. This book is a win.
Richard Kadrey puts his slick spin on the supernatural back onto pages in this sequel to 2009's Sandman Slim. The titular character is back, along with many of his cohorts, to deal with yet another horrifying preternatural outbreak of ghoulies and goblins. Comparable stylistically to Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, Kadrey has developed a surprisingly deep mythos to go along with his pulpy, creative, and easily readable material. Kill The Dead is fun, engaging, and increasingly creative. It is everything I wanted out of a sequel and I'd recommend it to anyone who's read "Sandman Slim" or are a fan of Jim Butcher.
Stark, known as Sandman Slim, is not a human. He is a Nephilim; the offspring of a fallen angel and a human mother. He has all the power of a Nephilim, but still was not strong enough to fight black magician Mason Faim, who dispatched him to hell for over a decade. When Lucifer releases Stark, he returns to hell on earth where he dispatches Mason back to Lucifer's kingdom. While there the mage mason tries to take over Lucifer's throne. The devil comes to earth to watch a picture of him being made and wants Stark to serve as his bodyguard. He also takes jobs for the Golden Vigil, sometimes called "Pinkerton's Angels, such as killing Eleanor the vampire, who wears a belt buckle that interests him for reasons he cannot figure out. Besides the Golden Vigil and Lucifer gigs, Stark works on fighting demons and a way to kill Mason. However, a new threat arises as zombies begin to walk the streets of Los Angeles killing all humans who cross their path. Stark has to figure out who is controlling the walking dead and get rid of him so the zombie menace will end. Stark is a terrific antihero whose conversations with a horde of paranormal and normal (that is in a specie sense; not a mental sense) is humorously biting satire. He is a half-breed who is neither angel nor demon, but works for both sides as he has no place with either. The story line is fast-paced, filled with high octane testosterone action, but is owned by Stark who tells his latest misadventures in a noir style first person account. Urban fantasy readers will fully appreciate the goings on in the city of angels. This reviewer can't wait for the next Sandman Slim novel. Harriet Klausner
"Imagine shoving a cattle prod up a rhino's ass, shouting "April fool!", and hoping the rhino thinks its funny."... So begins Kill The Dead, the second Sandman Slim novel by Richard Kadrey. Sandman Slim or James Stark as he is refered to throughout most of the novel is a strangely unique character. There are just enough references to his past to make me feel like I really missed out when I did not pick up the first Sandman Slim novel. Slim is a bounty hunter working for both the side of God in the form of the Golden Vigil run by an Angel to hunt down all sorts of evil creatures. The side is as bodyguard to Lucifer, yes that Lucifer. This novel delves into the darkness of night creatures that are the dead. Not the undead, but the dead. Zombies in all their variations and the mayhem that they shamble forth. And the blood. And the guts. And the feedings. I mean this book could be The Walking Dead but without all the seriousness and introspection. And that is a good thing. Kill The Dead hits the tongue in cheek horror genre right on the head and then steamrolls right through. Fun Fun Capital freaking FUN!!
1st Sandman Slim novel A+. 2nd novel A. 3rd novel genuflection plus chant. This guy can write and that is a fact. Buy his books. Support this crazy man. Keep him in tattoos.
I LOVE THIS SERIES! Lucifer hires Stark as his bodyguard. Why would the devil need a bodyguard? Stark is suspicious that the fallen angel Lucifer may be his father, while he fights a zombie army. A movie is being made in Hollywood about Lucifer, sort of like a life story by the people's souls that he owns. Way more is going on than that. Not wanting to give away a huge wow moment in the book (which may leave this brief and vague), Stark comes upon a unique zombie that may give him the chance to see his murdered girlfriend. This second book in the series soars over the first. It's full of so much good and wonderful stuff, that you can't put it down once the story starts. There's the Bamboo House of Dolls, a Czech porn star, flesh eating demons, members of powerful and prestigious magic families' obese and weird sexual appetites, and lots of violence and smart aleck remarks from our hero whose escape from hell may lead him right back! Do yourself a favor and read this great urban supernatural series by Richard Kadrey. 'Aloha From Hell' the next book in the series soon to come out is sure to be just as good if not better.
I'm a big fan of Kadrey and Sandman Slim in particular. Great series with a not so typical anti-hero. The jabs and one liners between Casabian and Stark are a highlight of the series, at least for me. I always thought Lucifer would be tougher... This series is definitely worth the read.
Even better than the first. Amusing moments amidst the fights and horror, with stakes and character development. The lead character can apparently burn through an infinite amount of money in between books though...
Shoots a zombie
Walks in "Hi. I'm Cc"
Sarcasticly witty and i enjoyed it just as much as the first. Cant wait to read the third book.
A supernatural take on the hard-boiled detective novel. Sandman Slim is a classic anti-hero, with the cynical lifeview of a pulp fiction PI, but there is a strong current of humor in both the continuous metaphors and the rapid-fire dialogue. With a severed head as his main foil, and a supporting cast that includes vampires, zombies, Lucifer, and some of Kadrey's unique creations, the story has a contemporary setting but a rich element of the inhuman. The intricate plot is best understood if you start with the first novel in the series, "Sandman Slim", as this is less a stand-alone sequel than a continuation of the overarching plot introduced in the first novel. And don't ignore the fun of watching people's eyes as you sit in your favorite coffee shop reading a book with "Kill the Dead" on the cover!

Hi all! Am like Loretta at this moment...jumping up and down with happy feet. MARY IS OK!!! It's been one hell of a month, getting home and running to my laptop to see my emails hoping and praying to see a message from our dear Mary. MY PRAYERS WERE ANSWERED...she is alright. She has been without internet or phone service since late April. Can you believe this. Some vandals robbed some cables then there was a tornado...yep, a tornado that took its toll on some of these services. To make it worst now at her office they don't have internet. Poor girl, she knew we all would be beyond worried so she walked a bit and located a Cyber Cafe and sent me an email today. First thing she asked for was a big favor, hahahaha...as if she had to ask. She wants all of you to know that she is ok, thinking about you all and sending her love. She knew we would be at our witts end. At this moment she does not know when she will be able to get in touch again but I will keep on trying until her dang phone works, hahaha. Love ya all, thanks for your prayers. We sure do stick together...
Hi everyone. Thanks for trying to reach Mary. I still have not been able to reach her by phone. I even wrote a PM to another Argentinian fan and friend asking for help but she also hasn't replied. It could very well be a wide spread problem with phone and internet connections cause the last time I heard from Mary she did tell me that it seemed to be in a large area of Buenos Aires. Probably in the next day or two I will take drastic measures...will try to reach here in PR Argentina's consul and see if I can get the phone number of Mary's office. I will keep in touch and if by any chance anybody hears from her...PLEASE LET US KNOW.
Its me again. Just got an idea. If by any chance any of you can get on Facebook (I don't dwell in those social networks) see if you can find her and contact her. Thanks1
SOS!!! Hi everyone. Has anybody heard from our dear Mary? I have been trying to reach her but nothing doing...by cell, home and by email and she still is AWOL. It's been almost a month and am worried sick. I know she had connection problems but she would keep in touch from work. Just a quick hi to let me know she was ok so that's why am really worried. I will be checking on the board to see if anybody gets in touch. Thanks so much...probably am just worring too much and all is well.

Since they seem to be recurring themes in my life and my writing, last week I had occasion to again contemplate idols and idolatry and also the way bullies operate. Both idols and bullies play with our psyche, of course, and can do great damage. They are like germs and bacteria that bring disease and make us exceedingly ill, but only if they can first penetrate the immune system.In the case of bullies and idols, this involves a piercing of the spiritual and psychological immune systems.

Plakias is a resort that suits couples, families and people who enjoy walking and nature. It caters well to the middle and budget conscious market. Unfortunately, if you are looking for a lively nightlife, then this is not the resort for you. The transfer times vary but on the whole it is usually around 1 and a half hours meaning you have plenty of time to look around at surrounding scenery as well as gain an understanding of the location of the resort and the location of your accommodation within the resort. The beach in the resort is good, covered in sand leading down to the waters edge. Sunbeds and parasols are available for hire and the beach is good for swimming, although the sea can be rough at times so it is important to never leave children unaccompanied. There are a number of hotels and apartments in the resort, most of watch are 2-3-stars offering self-catering, room only and half-board.
Plakias is a resort that has some brilliant water based activities such as windsurfing, surfing, scuba diving, snorkelling, sailing, jet-skiing, water-skiing, canoeing, paragliding and the opportunity to hire out pedalloes. Other activities to keep you away from the water include cycling, walking along nature trails, bird-watching or going round to explore the nearby archaeological sites. There are also a number of excursions for you to enjoy such as exploring the south coast of Crete, taking scenic mountain trips, going to the Samaria Gorge, visiting historic towns such as Rethymnon, seeing the ancient Minoan palace of Knossos and the Heraklion archaeological museum or even going on one of the many boat trips to other resorts or neighbouring islands.
There are many restaurants in Plakias for you to enjoy. Many of the restaurants and taverns offer traditional Greek cuisine as well as a lot of seafood. There are also a few more international cuisines available, particularly in hotels. Nightlife in the resort is quite tame, with a few bars, including music bars and a couple of discos. You will also find that a number of hotels offer evening entertainment. Shopping in the resort is limited to mini markets, supermarkets, craft stores, souvenirs, and beachwear. Public transport is good with a bus service taking you to and from Rethymnon, a mini train running between villages, water taxis and general taxis. Car hire can also be found.
Plakias summer season lasts from April until October and it tends to be very hot and dry and then mild in the winter. However all year round, the weather is good making it an ideal holiday destination all year round. From the beginning of the summer in April, the temperatures are already around 18°C and there are around 8 hours of sunshine a day. Temperatures continue to rise throughout the summer with them peaking at around 27°C in August. By then, there are 13 hours of sunshine a day. There is a gentle coastal breeze that keeps the temperature at a manageable level. From September to October there are 9-11 hours of sunshine a day and temperatures still remain at around 20°C. The winter rainfall starts in December, however the wettest months are January and February. There is a minimum of 4 hours of sunshine a day in this period with temperatures dropping to around 12°C.

End of the Blue Danube? Ecological catastrophe looms as toxic sludge flows towards river
By Mail Foreign Service
Last updated at 6:36 PM on 6th October 2010
- Major threat to water supplies after dam breaks
- Four dead and hundreds treated for serious chemical burns
A state of emergency has been declared in the Hungarian region submerged by toxic sludge because the chemical flood is threatening water supplies by rushing towards the Danube River.
The lethal tidal wave of poisonous red mud burst from a reservoir of toxic waste belonging to an alumina plant in the town of Ajka and flooded a 16-square mile area.
At least four people were killed, 120 were treated for serious chemical burns and six remain missing after the tsunami of poison surged through several towns around 100 miles southwest of Budapest.
See the video below ...
The source: The ruptured wall of the red sludge reservoir at the Ajkai Timfoldgyar plant in Kolontar
Water hazard: Workers from the Pannon Chemical University test the water of Torna stream in Kolontar
Painted the town red: An aerial view of mud covered houses in Kolontar
Waterways: This map illustates how the sludge could flow to the Danube from the affected towns of Kolontar and Devecser via the Marcal - several of the Danube's tributaries are underground
A 12ft-high wave of the red sludge gushed through streets and houses of Kolontar and Debencser, the two towns worst affected, sweeping cars off roads and damaging bridges.
Around 35.3 million cubic feet (1 million cubic meters) had now poured from the reservoir at the Ajkai Timfoldgyar plant in what Environmental Affairs State Secretary Zoltan Illes called an 'ecological catastrophe.'
Hundreds were evacuated in the aftermath of the disaster on Monday, but the incident now has the possibility of becoming a much wider ecological disaster affecting multiple countries if the chemical sludge poisons the Danube.
Scale: Diggers working beneath the broken dam are dwarfed its huge walls while right, a man peers through a hole in a hedge at what is left of his garden in Kolontar
Drowned: Huge pools of the toxic red sludge have formed in flat areas
Emergency workers wearing masks and chemical protection gear rushed to pour 1,000 tons of plaster into the Marcal River in an attempt to bind the sludge and keep it from flowing on to the Danube some 45 miles away.
The 1,775-mile-long Danube passes through four countries from its origins in Germany to the Black Sea and is one of the continent's greatest treasuries of wildlife.
It is the longest in Europe, bar the Volga (2,293), which only passes through Russia, and the longest in the European Union.
The material in the sludge, alumina, is a waste product of aluminum production that contains heavy metals and is toxic if ingested.
Proximity: The chemical reservoir is the large area at the front of this picture, while the town of Kolontar is visible at the top
Submerged: This aerial view of Kolontar shows the extent to which the red mud flooded the streets
Sludge dam: An aerial photo of the reservoir of red mud, which burst its walls
Still moving: A powerful river of poisonous red mud flows through Kolontar
While it is not usually considered a hazardous substance, in this instance it has proved fatal.
Among the dead were two women, a young man and a three-year-old child, and people being treated for chemical burns described how the caustic material melted through their clothes.
Two of the 120 injured are in critical condition and their chances may worsen before they improve because chemical burns can take days to emerge.
Dr. Peter Jakabos of Gyor Hospital explained on Hungarian state TV that injured people need to seek treatment because seemingly superficial injuries can turn deadly as the chemicals slowly burn through to deeper tissue.
In the town of Devecser, the relatives of a man airlifted to hospital told how the flood of toxic sludge had 'burned him to the bone'.
'When I heard the rumble of the flood, all the time I had was to jump out the window and run to higher ground,' said housewife Tunde Erdelyi.
Her husband escaped without serious injury but his uncle was flown by helicopter to Budapest after suffering horrific burns.

$199 for One .8 cc Radiesse Injection ($400 Value)
Dr. Zemplenyi begins by assessing complexions to determine if a Radiesse injection is the best option for the client. The doctor then injects .8 cc of the dermal filler into the skin along with a small amount of anesthesia. The FDA-approved solution is able to smooth common facial wrinkles, such as laugh and Marionette lines.

Triple board-certified surgeon Dr. Jan Zemplenyi of Bel-Red Center for Aesthetic Surgery—which opened in 1989—makes himself available 24/7 after every patient's reconstructive, cosmetic, or otolaryngology surgery. He can reach for Botox injections to ward off facial wrinkles or use a Reaction by Viora system, which combines three radio-frequency modes and a vacuum effect, to tighten skin while simultaneously spooking cellulite until it runs away. The doctor also performs noninvasive treatments, such as chemical peels and laser resurfacing, and donates his services to victims of domestic violence.

Melbourne Cup fanatics OTI Racing has not given up hope of having five runners in the Melbourne Cup as it anxiously awaits an updated order of entry on Monday.
Outstripping any potential representation Lloyd Williams is likely to have in this year's great race, retired Test cricketer Simon O'Donnell and partner Terry Henderson could have almost a quarter of the Melbourne Cup field.
Gatewood, Brambles, Lidari and Moonee Valley Cup placegetter Au Revoir are all safely in the field, with OTI desperate to qualify Lord Van Percy via the Lexus Stakes at Flemington on Saturday.
"It would be nice to be able to have five," Henderson said. "I think we're pretty much assured of three with Gatewood, Brambles and Au Revoir. Lidari is on the cusp but should make it in, and then [Lord] Van Percy is in the Lexus. We expect him to run well.
"It is conceivable [to have five], but you don't want to go off crowing too early about these things."
Williams' fascination with the Melbourne Cup has led him to scour the globe to source and secure potential Cup runners. He had six runners in last year's Cup.
Only Cox Plate runner-up Fawkner and 2012 Melbourne Cup hero Green Moon are confirmed to carry his colours this year. Sea Moon will run in the Lexus Stakes and potentially press on to the first Tuesday in November.
It has left OTI holding the whip hand in the numbers game this year as it seeks to snap its Melbourne Cup duck, most famously punctuated by Bauer's near miss in 2008.
"Our guys that race with us ... many of them have the dream of having a runner in the Cup," Henderson said. "There's probably 20 guys amongst the group that have probably never had that experience.
"While we don't have a real standout [this year], they're all really competitive types of horses. You wouldn't go into it saying we're going to run in the first five, but it wouldn't surprise if they all ran in the first half of the field."
OTI's 2014 Cup arsenal is spread across several trainers, with Brambles (fourth) and Lidari (sixth) graduating from the Caulfield Cup for Peter Moody.
John Gosden will produce Gatewood for his first Australian start in 18 months, while Andre Fabre (Lord Van Percy) and Andrew Balding (Au Revoir) are also in charge of OTI stock.
Lord Van Percy will run in the Lexus Stakes, with jockey Kerrin McEvoy trying to repeat Ruscello's heroics for OTI in the same race last year, while Brambles will have his Melbourne Cup tune-up in the Mackinnon Stakes.
"Brambles is going to run in the Mackinnon just to take a little bit of the sting out of him because he over-raced in the Caulfield Cup," Henderson said. "He'll go on to the Cup from there if everything goes well.
"And we expect [Lord Van Percy] to run well in the Lexus as he's a strong little stayer.
"[Au Revoir] badly needed that run [in the Moonee Valley Cup on Saturday] as he almost looked too pretty. He's that sort of horse and being a four-year-old stallion he looks after himself well. We put the blinkers on, but we'll pull the blinkers off [for the Cup] and [Saturday's] run will bring him along a lot."
Meanwhile, Moonee Valley Cup winner Prince Of Penzance is likely to be penalised 2 kilograms for the Melbourne Cup when Racing Victoria's chief handicapper Greg Carpenter announces a penalty on Monday.
But the Darren Weir-trained five-year-old will still be a long way down the order of entry and very unlikely to secure a Cup berth.
Prince Of Penzance won a messy Moonee Valley Cup, with his rider, Michelle Payne, copping a 20-meeting suspension for careless riding that led to Chad Schofield's fall on the home turn.
Hugh Bowman has been confirmed as the rider of Junoob in the Melbourne Cup after Blake Shinn was outed for careless riding at Rosehill on Saturday.
Shinn's Melbourne Cup dream was hanging by a thread after escaping a ban for a similar charge at Randwick three days earlier, but again fell foul of the stewards.

Sir Alfred James Munnings, P.R.A., R.W.S. (1878-1959)
On the Waveney near Mendham, Norfolk
signed 'A. J. Munnings' (lower right)
10 x 11½ in. (25.5 x 29.3 cm.)

Shanghai +86 21 6355 1766
Munnings grew up at Mendham Mill on the Waveney River in a house situated literally over the large waterwheel that created the power for his father's mill, the largest in the Waveney Valley. The constant sound of water, either gushing through the waterwheel or flowing gently past was music to Munnings's ears all his life and inspired his creative visions. In An Artist's Life, he recalled 'the ceaseless, busy hum of the mill, and the sound of the water as it eddied and swirled from underneath the dark, cavernous space where the large water-wheel turned, sending out a delicious pungent smell, the very essence of the river's life' (p. 256).
The peacefulness of a river suited Munnings's nostalgic nature and throughout his memoirs he recalls his unfailing love for the river. 'I long to sit by a river and paint', he wrote in his memoirs (Second Burst, p. 209). 'My one joy, thirty years ago was in knowing that my home was near a perfect river and village in an unspoiled country' (ibid., p. 49).
Munnings's earliest known river scene, a watercolour, was of a rowing boat on the edge of a river, dated 1896. He exhibited many watercolour river scenes in the Norwich Art Circle as early as 1897 (An Unkempt Stream) and selected a river scene as his first Royal Academy entry in 1899, Pike Fishing in January. Although, known as a painter of colourful racehorses, Munnings's second love was sailing and he admits in his memoirs that on a beautiful sunny day, it would be difficult to choose between going to races or to sail.
In the present work, Munnings appears to have experimented with the limited colour palette offered by the grey overcast sky. His interest in tones was ever-present as he enjoyed the challenge of creating colour from essentially a single hue. He uses this same flat-bottom skip, with the solid tower of Mendham church looming in the distance, in other works, primarily in various images of reed-cutters (e.g. Reed-cutters at Mendham, Philip's, London, 4 December 2001, lot 48).

East New York
A blogger offers a critical review of a podcast that examines the humans effects of gentrification in East New York, noting especially the lack of policy discussion's effect on the conversation.
City Block
Some residents of East New York argue that mandatory inclusionary zoning and other changes proposed for the neighborhood will only help displace low-income residents.
The Architect's Newspaper
Streetsblog NYC reviews new zoning and development rules proposed by the de Blasio Administration and finds incremental progress, not a major breakthrough, for parking policy.
StreetsBlog NYC
Unsurprisingly, an editorial titled "Gentrify East New York" provoked a strong response from the public.
Crain's New York Business
According to New York Yimby, Mayor de Blasio's proposed inclusionary zoning policy could do more to protect small market-rate developments, without affordable housing, than it will to create affordable units.
New York YIMBY
In his State of the City Address on Feb. 3, the New York City mayor made it clear that his overriding priority is affordable housing. He targeted six neighborhoods in all five boroughs where development will be required to include affordable housing.
New York Observer
The Brooklyn Development Center will close Dec. 31. The closure of the state facility is part of a long term goal of deinstitutionalizing the developmentally disabled and integrating them in the community in group homes.
The New York Times - N.Y. / Region
Public plazas aren't just for Manhattan. As part of DOT's Public Plazas program, one outer Brooklyn neighborhood has seen a traffic island turned into a pedestrian plaza. Matt Chaban reports on the praise it has earned.

Lately, there has been an outcry over the whole "fake geek girl" situation. Some people, apparently, are hating on girls they deem to be faking interest in games in order to gain attention, and some people are admonishing said people for attacking these girls who may or may not like games. I am not out to admonish anyone, nor to tell them what the correct side of the situation is; while I do not feel attacking other people is right, I can see where some of the anger of these gamers come from.
Games are, plain and simple, a hobby, but to those who play them, it is more, it gives each of us common ground. For a long time, people who played games were considered nerds, at a time when being a nerd was not the same thing as it is now; being a nerd was less widespread and not as socially accepted. As such, being a gamer was an, for lack of better words, exclusive thing; meeting someone else who liked games was a really cool thing, that other person loved something you did, and vise versa, it was a special thing. Now, basically anyone who has played any game at all, be it Tetris or Angry Bird, can call themselves a gamer. As an online editor said, "there was a struggle against geekery, and they geeks won" and with that came the mass media acceptance of the gamer geek. So, for this reason, I feel that many hard core gamers felt as though something they were previously privy to became known to the world, thus making that thing, and by causation, them, less special and I have a perfect example in my mind about this sort of situation.
For those growing up in the 90's, I am pretty sure you watched the Doug cartoon (for those who have not, wiki it). In on of the episodes for Doug, his trademark outfit becomes trendy, and EVERYONE starts to wear the same clothes that he has always been wearing. When he tries to bring up the fact that he had been wearing those clothes even before they became trendy, people brushed him off and all the while we got to see his frustration at the fact that something that made him him was taken by the masses and made him less original. Of course, the fad passes and everyone goes back to wearing whatever it was they wore and he got to be the only one who wore those clothes again. The thing is, that will not happen for video games, because I do believe they are here to stay. No matter how much some gamers may wish things went back to how they used to be, they won't, and there really is no point in throwing tantrums over it. Yes, it annoys me when someone (be it a guy or girl) claims to be a gamer when they clearly do not know what they are talking about, and that goes for everything really, but that does not give me the right to attack the person. In the end, I would respect people who were honest about what they liked; in college, two of my friends had very different taste, and when we got together, I would talk about games with one while the other would listen to us then they would talk about music while I would listen to them. Neither friend really pretended to know something they didnt simply because of who they were hanging out with, and I respected them for it. Whenever I meet or overhear someone who is trying to impress others with superficial knowledge I admit that it annoys me, but does it really do anything to me? No, not really, so I try not to let it bother me beyond that flash of annoyance it causes.
In the end, everyone is entitled to their opinion, and no matter which end of the spectrum you may be on, just try to think of the other's perspective before disregarding it as stupid, because they may have a point, and rarely are things black and white.

Hey you! Have you joined the Ladies Learning Code mailing list? If not, join here.
What is Teens Learning Code?
Teens Learning Code is for 13 to 17 year old highschool girls and is much more than learning how to code. It is also about learning problem solving skills, how to turn ideas into reality, exposure to what a future in technology could look like, networking and making friends! And sometimes this means visiting cool tech companies.
What is Code & Coffee?
Want to continue working on a project you built at a workshop? Have a project of your own you need some help and inspiration to complete?
Join us for Code and Coffee!
Code and Coffee is an informal meetup to get together and code in a fun, social and collaborative environment. If you love our workshops you'll enjoy connecting with others from the Teens Learning Code community of learners and mentors. Similarly to our workshops, we'll have some mentors available to help you with your projects but the real benefit of Code & Coffee is to connect with other learners and work through solving problems together!
There are no requirements to attend other than the willingness to collaborate and learn something new. Bring a project or we'll have some available that you can work on! All levels of expertise are welcome just RSVP and bring your laptop and powercord.
You can email Lorraine, our Teens Learning Code Program Coordinator, here!
This (free) event is made possible from our friends at Google - and individual donations. If you'd like to help programs like this for teenage girls possible, feel free to make a donation!
We're a Canada-wide community driven not-for-profit working to empower women and youth to feel comfortable learning beginner-friendly technical skills in a social and collaborative way.
In order to purchase these tickets in installments, you'll need an Eventbrite account. Log in or sign up for a free account to continue.

Following a lead, the Avatar found a cave on the Plateau, where the hero found the legendary Bonecrusher, guarded by Invisible Stalkers. With this weapon, it was easy to overcome Lithos' undead creatures. It is unknown what happened to it after the Avatar left Pagan for Britannia.
Lore Edit
And so it was in the early days of Pagan that the Titan of Earth, Lithos, declared that all who lived upon his lands should pay homage to him. With his mighty earthquakes, he demanded that the people of Tenebrae bow to him, lest he shake their houses down around them."But mighty Lithos," said the Lord Elsmil, the Tempest, "we are under the guidance of Hydros. From her we receive the rain for the crops and the fish for our table. We can not bow to you." This greatly angered Lithos and to punish the people of Tenebrae, he sent a great army of undead skeletons to slaughter them. Lord Elsmil, went to Hydros.
"Please," he begged her. "The people of your city are being slain by the minions of your brother, Lithos. We must have your help." Hydros heard the plea of her Tempest and gave to him a mighty hammer. "You shall have this weapon called Bone Crusher and with it defeat the minions of Lithos." she said. When Lord Elsmil arrived back at the battle, it was going poorly for the Tenebraens. They were fighting bravely, but were outnumbered two to one by the undead. Lord Elsmil let out a mighty roar and waded into the carnage wielding the mighty Bone Crusher. The skeletons fell before him like trees and the tide of the battle was turned. By evening the last of the skeletons were being hunted down in the woods and the town of Tenebrae was saved.
However, Lord Elsmil was missing. The Tenebraens began to look for him. They finally found his crushed body on the battle field, but the wonderous Bone Crusher was nowhere to bee seen.They looked for it for many days and nights, but did not find it. Though several of the searchers found the prints of bony feet in the soft dirt of the western forest. By the looks of the prints, they said, the skeletons were dragging something heavy behind them. A few of the searchers even say they caught a glimpse of bony white and the glint of light off something gold. To this day, intrepid treasure hunters continue to look for the hammer called Bone Crusher.
- from The Saga of Bonecrusher (Ultima VIII)
Trivia Edit
- Bonecrusher is the strongest magic weapon in Ultima VIII. Its bonus is double the damage against the undead creatures.

What is this?
For a variety of applications related to nuclear disarmament, arms control and non-proliferation, software is used, e.g. for verification purposes. While free/open source software covers many other fields of use, it is rarely employed in the former. Increased use would be benefical.
The idea behind NuclearFreeSoftware is to help such an increased use. This will be done by developing own projects. In parallel, benefits and requirements with particular regard to nuclear disarmament, arms control and non-proliferation should be studied. To enable more cooperation, programs developed elsewhere are listed, too.

I really didn't know the benefits of unlocking a gsm phone and I have to admit that when I spent almost 3 and a half hours searching for a website that explained the entire benefits of unlocking a phone, I discovered unlock.my. I love this website because it explains how to unlock it, where to buy the unlock code and if you don't have the money they give you other options to get your code. I was going to unlock my motorola razr v3 that I love and I have to say that I can't wait for my unlock code to arrive. I would recommend this website to other people because there is a lot of good information in here and it orients you about the many benefits of unlocking a phone. Thanks in advance. Have a nice day!!!!
