Thread: Nvidia RGB HDMI issue
Nvidia RGB HDMI issue
This isn't a question or help request, just wondering how many people know of or have experience with the whole issue of nvidia cards being fixed at Limited RGB rather than Full when being connected to the screen via the HDMI port?
This is something I'd never heard of until today when a new monitor arrived and this review - http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/aoc_i2757fm.htm (under the section "Default Performance and Setup") - brought it to my attention.
Found more info here: http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=371214
and here http://community.futuremark.com/foru...ion-EASY-tool!
with a fix given here - http://blog.metaclassofnil.com/?p=83. (other fix suggestions are given in the posts).
Again, I didn't know anything about this until a few hours ago so am merely curious. Personally I'm not a visual guy who worries about deep blacks and stark whites, but I'll be giving this a go as soon as I'm in a position to restart my PC just in case.
Also, sorry if this has been brought up many times but various searches turned up nothing.
Not sure what this is about but I will share what I know about this.
There is a Full/Limited RGB toggle in the nvidia control panel settings but only in the Video settings tab. My workaround to that is quite simple: set the RGB range relevant to your display in the video settings tab, switch over to the Adjust Desktop Color Settings screen, and set the option labelled "Content type reported to the display:" as "Full-screen videos".
Voila! You have control of the RGB colour range for your display.
I was at a friend's house a while ago and tried this on his system (he has a gtx670). For some strange reason it didn't help at all, white balance was strange and everything was dull. I decided randomly o switch from RGB to YCbCr444, and everything magically looked great. Turns out his Samsung LED TV was not an RGB display. Doh!Steam profile

Meat Monster And Plushy Pencil!
Been making Monsters! Well, i've had a batch on the go for a while – but here's a sneak preview… I've been mega busy at work recently, so as soon as i've had a second to myself i've been busying away on a new collection. These ones are going to be very special as they're all based on a bunch of fantastically imaginative socks from Ashi Dashi. Check out their wares here. I love them! High res images of Meat Monster and friends on Flickr.
Meat Monster is going to be one of my all time favourites i think. The packaging the socks come in is brilliant. A plastic wrapped meat tray.
The Pencil Sock is also looking great. I've got some little arms and things for him yet so look out for developments ;) I put a little bit of stitching detail around the eraser on the end to plump it out a bit. Let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions! Next – the Wooden Socks ….! Watch this space.

Several months ago I was introduced to Paula, the creator of Sweet P's, though my friend and fellow blogger, Shane who runs Environmental Booty. Are you familiar with the idiom "cut from the same cloth? Well, that is how I feel about both Shane and Paula. The three of us seem to have quite a bit in common and although we are literally scattered across the country (California, Arizona, Florida) I feel a kinship that seems to transcend these geographical barriers.
As soon as us three girls start talking "products" I feel giddy. As moms, we all feel a burning desire to use and support products free of toxins especially the products we use on our kids. This common thread is the catalyst behind this new Sweet P's line.
Shane has been a long time supporter of Sweet P's but it wasn't until the three of us started talking that Paula decided to package up her products in a specific baby care bundle and sell them in both Shane and my stores. I love that Paula took this as an opportunity to collaborate and incorporated our feedback into the design. For example, I felt it was important that the bottles be small enough (40z) to be easily held in one hand – let's face it, as a mom you are lucky to have one had free let alone two.
Here is a break down of what is included in the bundle and why I like it…
Cloud Powder:
Since talc is mined the same areas as asbestos it is important to used powder that is talc-free. Sweet P's Cloud Powder is made with a zinc oxide formula (not nanomil) and corn starch. Zinc oxide has been formulated with skin ointments for centuries and traditionally is formulated with ointments for a variety of skin conditions. Zinc is also very effective as a way to control the growth of bacteria and yeast. However with any powder DO NOT dust near face your babies face to ensure that the dust is not inhaled. To make this product even more environmentally friendly the container is refillable and you will be able order refills of Cloud Powder from Sweet P's Skincare.
Baby Head to Toe Bubbles:
This head-to-toe formula is loaded with botanical extracts and is biodegradable. Although this is not a "No Tears Formula" it is phosphate free, SLS free, contains no DEA, and no parabens. This product is perfect for the whole family and refills can be easily purchased from Sweet P's Skincare.
Organic JojoBaby Oil:
Structurally the closest thing to you skin's own nature oil is 100% Certified Organic Jojoba Oil. This oil is free of scent and loaded with naturally contained anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties. Feel comfortable soothing dry patches and removing crud behind ears while applying an organic oil free of pesticides. Got cradle cap? Add a few drops to your baby's scalp before shampooing. This product is loaded with the best that nature has to offer and is great for the whole family. Refills can be easily purchased from Sweet P's Skincare.
Organic Bottom Butter:
This simply wonderful and effective bottom ointment is crafted by blending 100% Certified Organic Shea Butter and zinc oxide. This kit includes a jar for home as well as a travel tin for your diaper bag! This product protects, heals and has a high content of Vitamin A, E & F. It melts on body contact and is readily absorbed.
One of the reasons I think this makes such a great baby shower gift is that these products packaged in two 100% cotton muslin bags (one for home and one for travel). Also the art work on this product is really adorable and I love that it was created by Paula herself!

MLBPA announces scholarship in Weiner's honor
MINNEAPOLIS -- Tony Clark, executive director of the Major League Baseball Players Association, officially announced the creation of the Michael Weiner Scholarship for Labor Studies prior to Tuesday night's All-Star Game.
The scholarship is named after the late Michael Weiner, who waged an inspirational battle against an inoperable brain tumor before passing away last November. He spent nearly his entire working life, a quarter of a century, working for the union, succeeding Donald Fehr as executive director in June 2009. Even after being diagnosed in August 2012, Weiner continued to work on behalf of his constituency.
"Michael's passion, commitment and determination on behalf of others are well known, and it is our hope that through this scholarship we will be able to encourage and inspire others to pursue careers in support of workers' rights," Clark said.
The scholarship will be administered through the Major League Baseball Players Trust, the charitable arm of the MLBPA, and it seeks to recognize and support the efforts of individuals dedicated to improving the lives of workers. Up to five $10,000 grants will be awarded annually.
Each year, the Players Trust distributes more than $1.5 million and inspires hundreds of thousands of high school students to volunteer in their communities through the Action Team national youth volunteer program. Clark is a trustee of the fund along with player representatives Curtis Granderson of the Mets and Jeremy Guthrie of the Royals.
Those interested must be graduate or law students enrolled in an accredited educational institution in the United States or Canada, and they must have a demonstrated interest in, and wish to make a career out of, working in the labor movement and on behalf of workers' rights. Among the criteria that will be considered are a strong academic record, a demonstrated commitment to the labor movement, a strong recommendation from an academic or a labor/workers' rights practitioner and strong written and oral communication skills. Preference will be given to those who demonstrate financial need.
Applications will be accepted through Nov. 10, 2014.

Product Description
12 Steps to Whole Foods is the how and why of the best nutritional practices in the world. The ones that lead to youthfulness, longevity, ideal weight, healthy digestion, and optimal energy.
We arm you with best practices, and 1,000 recipes in every category imaginable. But until we address your heart and mind, we've won only half the battle.
The fact is, we mistreat only things we do not value. What conclusion, then, do we draw from the fact that many people—most, in fact—abuse and sabotage their bodies daily?
We live in a culture where we are bombarded with images to compare ourselves to. Movie stars, models, airbrushed falsehoods. We're given a very narrow range of physical characteristics that are socially desirable.
It's no wonder so many turn away in despair, and self-medicate with terrible food. Food that accelerates aging, spikes our disease risk, packs on 20 lbs or more, and makes us feel terrible.
The 12 Steps Meditations is a companion to the 12 Steps Course. But we offer it separately, unlike some of the pieces in the course, because it is my love letter to you.
It is intended to help you rethink and resolve your issues with living inside your body.
Through repetition, and a loving voice, I want you to shift your beliefs towards a love for the beautiful temple that houses your amazing spirit. Only then can you begin to make wise daily choices, within our 12 Steps program, to honor that temple.
I worked on these meditations for nearly two years. And finally I collaborated with my dear friend, a professional voice talent and a phenomenal musician, Carolyn Lundberg, who recorded them to beautiful music.
Please listen to them every day, in your car or on your iPod. Let the complete redesign of your psyche, regarding how you view yourself and your body, take place over a short time.
This is the most singular "labor of love" I have created to date, among many information products. Creating them with Carolyn was a very emotional experience. I hope you are profoundly changed for the better by these meditations. My intent is to honor the divine in you, my friend.

Michael J. Fox Does Not Want That Taylor Swift Lady Going Near His Son
"No. No … Just back off. I don't keep up with it all, but Taylor Swift writes songs about everybody she goes out with, right? What a way to build a career."
–Michael J. Fox ruminates on the career arc of Taylor Swift and disses TT as a potential love match for his son Sam. Sam, you'll remember was the center of a joke during the Golden Globes, when Amy Poehler warned T. Swift to "stay away from him," to which Swift responded with some total bitch face. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to cross Alex P. Keaton. [NYMag.com]

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/5/2013 (1548 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Ray Manzarek, a founding member of the 1960s rock group the Doors whose versatile and often haunting keyboards complemented Jim Morrison's gloomy baritone and helped set the mood for some of rock's most enduring songs, has died. He was 74.
Manzarek died Monday in Rosenheim, Germany, surrounded by his family, said publicist Heidi Robinson-Fitzgerald. She said the musician's manager, Tom Vitorino, confirmed Manzarek died after being stricken with bile duct cancer.
The Doors' original lineup, which also included drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robbie Krieger, was only together for a few years and they only made six studio albums, but the band has retained a large and obsessive following decades after Morrison's death in 1971. The Doors have sold more than 100 million records and songs such as Light My Fire and Riders On the Storm are still classic rock favourites. For Doors admirers, the band symbolized the darker side of the Los Angeles lifestyle, what happened to the city after the sun went down and the Beach Boys fans headed home.
Next to Morrison, Manzarek was the most distinctive-looking band member, his glasses and wavy blond hair making him resemble a young English professor more than a rock star, a contrast to Morrison's Dionysian glamour -- his sensuous mouth and long, dark hair. Musically, Manzarek's spidery organ on Light My Fire is one of the most instantly recognizable sounds in rock history.
But he seemed up to finding the right touch for a wide range of songs -- the sleepy, lounge-style keyboards on Riders On the Storm; the liquid strains for The Crystal Ship; the barrelhouse romps on Roadhouse Blues. The Doors always considered themselves more than a rock band and Manzarek, Densmore and Krieger often managed a flowing rapport that blended rock, blues and jazz behind Morrison's self-consciously poetic lyrics.
"There was no keyboard player on the planet more appropriate to support Jim Morrison's words," Densmore said in a statement. "Ray, I felt totally in sync with you musically. It was like we were of one mind, holding down the foundation for Robby and Jim to float on top of. I will miss my musical brother."
The Doors were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993. Their records have been reissued frequently and the band was the subject of a 1991 Oliver Stone movie, The Doors, starring Val Kilmer as Morrison and Kyle MacLachlan as Manzarek, who complained that the film stereotyped Morrison as a hopeless drunk and also omitted calmer, more humorous times. The Doors' fame has hardly faded even though they're one of the few groups not to allow their music to be used for commercials, a source of great tension among surviving members. Manzarek and Krieger reportedly supported licensing the songs, and Densmore has resisted.
The group also feuded when Krieger and Manzarek formed a new group, Doors of the 21st Century. Densmore objected, and Krieger and Manzarek performed under various names.
Other Doors albums included The Soft Parade, Waiting for the Sun and their last record with Morrison, L.A. Woman.
Manzarek briefly tried to hold the band together on the albums Other Voices and Full Circle, neither of which had critical or commercial success. He played in other bands over the years, working with X and Iggy Pop among others. He also wrote a memoir, Light My Fire, and a novel, The Poet In Exile, in which he imagines receiving messages from a Morrison-like artist who had supposedly died.
Born and raised in Chicago, Manzarek studied piano as a child and briefly considered a career in basketball. After graduating from DePauw University, he headed west to study film at UCLA. A few months after graduation, he and Morrison met in 1965 on Venice Beach in California. As Manzarek would often recall, Morrison read him some lyrics -- "Let's swim to the moon/Let's climb through the tide/Penetrate the evening that the/City sleeps to hide" -- that became the start of Moonlight Drive.
"I'd never heard lyrics to a rock song like that before," Manzarek told Billboard in 1967. "We talked a while before we decided to get a group together and make a million dollars."
By 1966, they had been joined by Krieger and Densmore and were a sensation live, especially during the theatrical, Oedipal epic, The End. They were the house band at the famed Whisky a Go Go in Los Angeles before being signed by Elektra Records and releasing a self-titled album in 1967, one of the most talked-about debuts in rock history.

JOBS are set to be axed at Brintons Carpets in Kidderminster, less than a year after it invested £5 million into its operations in the town.
The Shuttle has learned an unspecified number of redundancies, described by chiefs as "isolated" and a "handful", are being planned for Kidderminster by the Stourport Road-based company as part of a streamlining process but no timetable has yet been fixed.
Bosses said most of the redundancies would be made in Kidderminster, where 370 staff out of a total of 560 in the UK are currently employed.
Community Union campaign manager Gavin Miller said the news was "disappointing" but last year's major investment, which saw jobs created in Kidderminster, meant it was likely to be "just a blip" rather than the beginning of a trend.
Don Coates, managing director, said: "We are in the process of streamlining our UK operations, consolidating the residential and commercial divisions, so we can minimise duplication and bring our business closer in line with how we operate around the world.
"As part of this, unfortunately, we need to make a handful of redundancies but these are isolated and part of ensuring we run the business in the most sensible way. More broadly, the business is in good shape and we are confident about the future.
"Although order conversions have been slow recently, our project pipelines are stronger than they have been for years and we are seeing exciting opportunities to grow, especially in the United States, which is our largest market and the Middle East, where our carpets are in demand."
Mr Miller said: "It is disappointing to hear redundancies are happening. The business has done well over the last 12 months, hopefully, this is a temporary setback and we would be looking to support our members."
He added: "It does not sound like it is the beginning of a trend to me. There was great news last year in terms of investment in Kidderminster so, fingers crossed, this is just a blip."
It is a year since the company shed 20 jobs at Kidderminster following changes to the shift patterns. There was better news, last April and August, when £5 million was pumped into the town, which saw new weaving looms installed and apprentices taken on.
The 230-year-old business, the world's largest manufacturer of Axminster carpets, moved to Stourport Road in 2012.
The move followed a £40 million investment in 2011 by American private equity giant The Carlyle Group, axing 150 jobs soon after the take over.

Adnan Oktar: We are the eldest brother of all this region, we are their friend. They are all our neighbours, we have lived together for hundreds of years and now this division is totally artificial. LET THE BORDERS BE OPEN, LET THE VISAS BE REMOVED, LET US DO BUSINESS OUT LOUD, LET US EMBRACE THEM, LET THERE BE A JOY, A FEAST, LET ABUNDANCE SURROUND EVERYWHERE. And let the world see the ugliness of this perfidy, egoism and selfishness and thus aspire us.

Adnan Oktar: If Konya, İzmir, Adana – May Allah forbid- were seperate from us and we said "we are brothers, how can such a thing happen. We come together." And if some one said " That is very utopic, could this ever happen, there is no such a thing, these are seperate"; is there any reason in that? No. Similarly, there is no reason in our being seperate from Turkic countries. We have the same religion, same language and same race. We are all the same. Our culture, our grannies, our customs…There is no reason for seperation. Therefore, passports have to be removed among Turkic countries and Islamic countries; visas have to be removed, as well. People should come and go as they please. Business should be at ease, connections as well. This happens in European Union, why not in Turkish Islamic Union? In European Union, people go to the country they want and settle down. They don't use passport or visas. So, why do we, the brothers, not do this? I mean, there is no reason, of course we can.

Arran Brindle has retired from the England Women's team.
The 32-year-old batting all-rounder made 134 international appearances, including 11 Tests, and scored 2,852 runs across all formats, adding 57 wickets with her medium pace and 58 catches.
Her one Test century came in the drawn first Test of the 2005 Ashes, along with one of her three half-centuries.
She shared in the first double-century opening stand in women's Test cricket, alongside Caroline Atkins against India in 2002, while her best-remembered achievement came at club level with Louth when, in 2011, she became the first woman to make a century in the ECB men's Premier League.
Brindle said: "I will forever cherish the highs and lows of playing cricket for England.
"My fondest and proudest memories are undoubtedly of our battles against Australia, especially victory in 2005, regaining the Women's Ashes after 42 years. Having taken part in five Ashes series, I feel incredibly proud to walk away having won three.
"With the exciting news at the end of last week that the women's game will now be turning professional at an international level, I wish everyone involved every success in Bangladesh at the ICC Women's World Twenty20 next month, and for the future."

Atlanta Braves outfielder Justin Upton was ejected in one of the most unprofessional displays by a Major League umpire in recent memory, when home plate umpire Paul Nauert threw him out as Upton was running down the first base line on Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Upton had previously had words with Nauert after striking out in his second at-bat in the third inning. In the sixth inning, Upton glared at Nauert after the first strike call.
With a runner on second base, Upton then grounded out to second baseman Kolten Wong and dropped an F-bomb at himself, which has really become his trademark in Atlanta. Nauert must have thought it was directed toward his poor umpiring job and ejected Upton halfway down the first base line.
Fredi Gonzalez and Terry Pendleton had to restrain Upton after the play was completed, which is understandable.
MLB needs to reel in their umpires. We've already complained about Angel Hernandez for his idiocy. Don't give fans anymore fuel to distrust a sport already marred with PEDs.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Freshman Jelena Tancic made an impact for the Lions, earning a fifth place finish to help the Saint Leo women's cross country team collect fourth place overall at the UF Mt. Dew Invitational, Saturday morning at the Mark Bostick Golf Course.

the community is in hibernation, like a winter garden asleep till spring.
It has slowed way down but the site is rich in content, and worth promoting and adding input. Many people have moved to the country where the internet access is very limited now.
Is this community dead?
Hi Bill, my Broc started to freeze and died, but my cabbage, kale, spinach and arugula survived all winter. Our greenhouse is basically a reclaimed frame with plastic positioned over a 24 X 16 ft. raised bed...not heated at all.
Aubree, I will be interested to here how your broccolil and cabbage do through the winter ours lived last year but quickly bolted when the weather warmed and I pulled it. Is your greenhouse heated in any way?
I have some cabbages growing slowly, broccoli, chard, spinach, lettuce, radishes and arugula growing in my little greenhouse. Getting ready to plant new crops very soon.
Good news everyone. I still have cabbage growing out in the open air using it for winter chicken forage. Unfortunately they have developed a taste for the Garlic tops as well.
A great place to promote WFN as well as our other products and services is this great viral blogging network. It also provides products within itself for us to make extra money to forward our cause. www.EzSteps.Info
I made money the first day, and so can you.
Have you been digging jeruslium Artichokes all winter? Ours have worked out well and I finially figured ut how to cook them that Carolyn and I both like. Cut thin and Deep Fried. With the mild winter our lettuce and spinach has done better than ever and I think it will go all winter. What do you have growing this winter?
Awesome. Let's combine efforts :-)

In the past few years, Chilean avocado promotions have focused heavily on college football, with a marketing climax at the Fiesta Bowl.
That will change this year, as marketing plans take a turn toward the basics, said Adolfo Ochagavía, president of the Chilean Hass Avocado Committee.
"This year, the CAIA will focus its resources in programs that will focus on giving support to retailers," he said.
That's more a direct, proven route to marketing success, Ochagavia said.
"We expect to increase sales this way, since the market growth in the U.S. looks attractive," he said.
Not abandoning football
Chile hasn't scuttled college football as a marketing venue, but it's just not the direction to take this year, Ochagavia said.
Whether Chile is actively involved in football-related promotions, the sport and avocados have developed a strong bond, said Gary Caloroso, marketing director with Escondido, Calif.-based Giumarra Agricom International.
"A wonderful emotional connection between football fans and guacamole has been built over the years," Caloroso said. "Our hope is that folks will continue to enjoy guacamole and also look at all of the other great ways to use avocados during all of their meals and snacking occasions."
The Chilean Hass Avocado Committee plans to invest resources in promoting Chile's burgeoning domestic market.
"We see opportunities," Ochagavia said.
Focus on quality, nutrition
The chief priority is to focus on quality issues this year, Ochagavia said.
"We are running our dry matter test program, and we will invest in a local campaign focused in Santiago, and, finally, we hope to increase our shipments to the U.S., compared to the previous season," he said.
The latest nutritional findings from the Hass Avocado Board also will be incorporated into Chile's marketing program, Ochagavia said.
"We have received some information on very interesting nutritional findings, and we are reviewing them in Chile and planning how to use them in the domestic market," he said.
Pushing product in Chile, Brazil
The U.S. remains Chile's primary market for promotions, but Chile is finding some ready customers closer to home, which will affect shipper decisions, said Karen Brux, marketing director with the Chilean Avocado Importers Association.
"A small promotional program will run this year in Chile, with promotional material distributed in key markets, a few outdoor billboards and demonstration of avocado recipes on select TV morning shows, and some recent good news is that Brazil just opened their phytosanitary boundaries for Chilean avocados," Brux said.
Consumption in Brazil is relatively low, but that country is showing potential for growth, Brux said.
U.S. shippers, meanwhile, say they will back up any association promotions with their own complementary programs.
"We try to be informed of what the CAIA is doing so we can be a conduit for our customers to make sure they get involved in programs that make sense for them," said Chris Varvel, sales/distribution manager with Escondido-based Henry Avocado Corp.
Riverside, Calif.-based Index Fresh Inc. takes a similar tack, said Dana Thomas, president.
"We participate and work with them so that when they put together a merchandising event with customers that we supply, we make sure we're supporting that," he said.

A FITTING memorial to an East Lancashire footballing legend has been installed at his final resting place thanks to Burnley FC.
John Haworth, the secretary-manager who led Burnley FC to their only FA Cup triumph and later the League Championship, has a new granite headstone at Accrington Cemetery.
The Accrington-born administrator is also responsible for the decision to turn the Turf Moor outfit from green strips to their famous claret and blue shirts.
And as the centenary of perhaps his finest hour is commemorated, when the Clarets beat Liverpool 1-0 at Crystal Palace to lift the cup in front of King George V, supporters' clubs chipped in to provide funding for the new headstone.
His grandchildren Audrey Mears and Derek Haworth were present, alongside a number of Haworth's great- grandchildren, to see the monument erected at a service led by the Rev David Wiseman, himself a keen Claret.
Club director Barry Kilby said: "At Burnley FC we are very proud of our heritage and we thought it very fitting, at a time of celebration for the club, to provide a permanent memorial to a club legend who brought a huge amount of success to the Clarets all those years ago."
Haworth died from pneumonia at the age of just 48 in 1924 while still at the helm at Turf Moor. He is buried in the same grave as his uncle, Thomas Shorrock, and his nieces Bertha Hughes and Ellen Shorrock.
Before transforming the Clarets' fortunes he started out at the Accrington side Meadow Bank, which he merged with then-North East Lancashire Combination outfit Accrington Stanley.
Under his stewardship Stanley rose to become a feared non-league competitor, winning the Lancashire Combination in 1902- 03, before he left for Burnley in 1910.
Revitalising the Second Division side, he brought in German defender Max Seeburg and England centre-forward Bert Freeman.
The record of his title-winning Clarets side in 1920-21, notching up 30 unbeaten matches, would stand for more than 80 years – Arsenal passed it in 2003-04.

Justin Timberlake Keeps His Promises: A Night at the Marine Corps Ball
Justin Timberlake made good on his promise to Kelsey De Santis to be her date to the Marine Corps Ball. And what a time he had!
-Lucia Peters
Remember over the summer when Justin Timberlake accepted a serviceswoman's invite to attend the Instructor Battalion Marine Corps Ball? Well, he kept his promise! On Saturday, the "Sexy Back" singer was combat instructor Kelsey De Santis' date to the shindig—and according to People, he said it "turned out to be one of the most moving evenings I've ever had." Awww!
Justin gave the event a pretty fabulous write-up on his website. He seemed to like Kelsey a lot—they had some time to chat and get to know one another before the ball really went into full swing, and he wrote, "She seemed to me to be so humble and honest… Very cool. She also simultaneously seemed like she was nervous about the whole evening and if I was going to enjoy myself." He reported that she asked him whether he was okay a bunch of times and told him that she hoped he was having fun. "I have to tell you, it's not every day that I meet a 23 year old girl and she's more worried about if I'm having fun or if I'm comfortable!" Justin continued. "It hit me all of a sudden that these were the type of people that look after us and our freedom…. I was really blown away."
He got along with her friends as well, calling them a "'kick-ass' group of people"—but it was the tribute video about the World War II Pearl Harbor attack and the September 11 terrorist attacks that really got Justin. He wrote about the first-hand accounts from the Marines who were there during those attacks, "[They were] so vivid and real. So honest, but so filled with a sense of compassion and adoration for this wonderful country." He continued: "I glanced around the room at young men and women, spouses and soldiers… At kids way beyond their years, really… All so deeply entwined. Not just by battle…. But, by having such life changing experiences through them and to not ever waver in their love and respect for our homeland. That's what I saw. A faith in us that has been tested time and time again. And, through it all, NEVER a drop of doubt."
"I was truly moved," he finished simply.
Read 10 Women Veterans Share Their Stories
Honestly, I had a little difficulty stoaching Justin earlier in his career (I think it had something to do with the whole boy band thing), but in recent years, I've developed a growing respect for him. There's more going on in him than just the standard pop star racket. He's able to make fun of himself (hello, "D*ck in a Box!"), and he doesn't seem to consider himself "above" anything or anyone. What made him say yes to Kelsey in the first place? It wasn't because she gave one of his songs a shout-out (though he loved that), and it wasn't because of the muscle-bound military guys standing behind her in her invitation video. No; it was for a much simpler reason: "I don't get asked out ever!" Justin said during a press conference this summer. That's kind of endearing, amirite?
Justin closed out his blog entry with the following message:
"To people like me who get to benefit from this type of person… One with character and courage. With strength and bravery. With humility and honor… I say: Send your thanks. Do it however you can. Write a letter, type an email… Hell, buy 'em a beer next time you run into someone from our Armed Forces in a bar. When they say thank you for that drink that cost you 3 bucks, they'll mean it. They won't take it for granted and, they won't forget it.
"Thank you Corporal Kelsey DeSantis. Thank you for inviting me. And, thank you for being my hero."
We're with you, Justin!

Rested Angels roll against Torii's Tigers
ANAHEIM -- Prior to Friday's contest, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said Wednesday's postponed game was a disappointment because "when you're trying to find it, as we are, you want to get right back out there and keep playing."
As it turns out, the extra day of rest -- coupled with a return home -- may have been exactly what the team needed as it defeated the Tigers, 8-1, to open a six-game homestand. The Angels have now won three in a row at Angel Stadium.
Albert Pujols, Mike Trout and Peter Bourjos combed for seven of the Angels' 16 hits and seven RBIs, Tommy Hanson turned in six scoreless innings, the defense delivered some key plays and Sean Burnett escaped a tough late-inning jam in what may have been the club's most complete game of the season -- the type of game it has needed badly.
"It was a total team effort," said Hanson, who improved to 2-1. "We pitched well, played good defense and put up some runs against a really good Tigers team. Obviously that's what we all want to see, and I don't feel like anyone has panicked in this clubhouse. We know we have a good team and we know we are going to play well. It was a good day for all of us."
After allowing five runs in five innings during his last start, Hanson worked around trouble against the Tigers. He allowed runners to reach base in each of the first five innings, but stranded all of them. The right-hander threw 102 pitches, allowed six hits, walked four and recorded his 600th career strikeout.
"Tommy was on the edge for a while, and he had some good hitters he had to get out," Scioscia said. "He was walking that tightrope, walked four guys, but when it was all said and done, that's a strong outing against a good offensive team, and Tommy pitched well."
The Angels used five pitchers to shut down the defending American League champions, who began the game with five players batting over .300, including Torii Hunter, who received a standing ovation prior to his first at-bat at Angel Stadium since departing the club in free agency over the winter.
"There's not a lot of rocket science to this stuff," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. "It's pretty simple, we just didn't have a very good game all around. We got hits, we just couldn't get the big hit. We didn't make a couple of plays that we normally make. We just didn't have a good time. We didn't have a very good game tonight."
Hanson was not the only Angels pitcher who had to escape trouble on the night. While the Angels' bullpen has been maligned all season, Burnett came in during a seventh-inning jam and produced the kind of results the Angels were hoping for when they signed him.
With two on and one out -- and the Angels clinging to a 2-0 lead -- Burnett came on to face Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder. Cabrera singled to load the bases, but Burnett got Fielder to ground into a double play, ending the threat.
Offensively, the Angels entered the game hitting a Major League-worst .155 with runners in scoring position, but went 5-for-9 with a sacrifice fly on Friday. They have 10 hits in their last 22 at-bats with runners on second and/or third.
Hitting with runners in scoring position was not the only sign of the Angels' bats coming to life, as the team scored seven of its runs with two outs.
Offensively, the Angels gave their pitchers a 1-0 lead in the third inning, but really blew the game open in the eighth, when Bourjos' three-run triple highlighted a five-run inning.
"There's no doubt as the game went on I think our at-bats got better and we had our share of clutch hits tonight," Scioscia said. "It made a big difference."

Russia has two main problems, according to an old 19th century joke: "dorogi i duraki", or "roads and idiots".
Over the weekend, many Russian motorists travelling between Moscow and St Petersburg were reminded of this saying, which even made a brief debut as a twitter meme "дураки + дороги" after the first snowfall of the year caused a 160km traffic jam on a highway between the two cities.
Finger-pointing in the wake of the snarl-up predictably pitted the "roads" versus the "idiots", even as government emergency workers toiled frantically to clear new congestion on Tuesday following a fresh snowfall.
It was the drivers' fault, claimed Andrei Kosinov, the head of the road service agency from the province of Tver, where the worst of the traffic jam occurred.
"This is mainly the result of uneducated drivers who are always hurrying somewhere, overtaking each other in the opposite lane, and so on… If there was a normal culture of driving, then these problems would not have occurred," he said. Read more

And the winner of the raffled Prodiver Blue Limited is:
Mr. T.Laamanen from Finland! Congratulations!
We have been in contact with him already and he looks forward to receive this nice and worthful watch ;)
Here a picture of the watch with rubber- and metalbracelett.
Don´t wait to long if you are interested to reserve a special limited number of the limited serie.
We have a lot of preorders.
Delivery will be end of October for actual orders.
Story of the STOWA Sportswatches.
Since 1963 we have built this model in many different versions.
History & Inspiration.
Since 1963, STOWA successfully produces professional sports and diving watches. The resulting watches have been various over the last decades. Especially during the 1970s, STOWA designers have been very active. Exceptional watches with crazy colors were created. Since Jörg Schauer's takeover of the brand, the company's aim is to continue tradition with care but also to modernize the watch models – resulting in new sports watch Seatime (waterproof up to 300 meters) and diving watch Prodiver (1000 meters waterproofness). Former design features have been edited and adapted carefully without destroying the DNA of the watches.
Some former watches.
Collectors watch from the STOWA Museum. Around 1970. Colorful coated dial.
Another collectors item. Built in the last 60th. This blue dial was one of the inspirations for the new Prodiver Blue Limited.
Actual model.
Prodiver black with lime color second and minutehand.
Reissue. Wanted by Watch Fans.
Preserving Tradition - Yet Thinking Ahead.
2004. Seatime limited.
Together with a German internet board community, a new Seatime dial is created and produced as a limited edition. Most striking features of this modern era sports watch are the luminescent index lines and various watch dial colors combined with it.
2005. Seatime Serie.
After the first limited series with index dial, Jörg Schauer presents the serial watch which is produced almost unchanged until today. The watch features a dial with luminescent numerals and date display. Since then, limited colors (for example blue and pink) and patterns (carbon) for the dial have been realized.
2006. Prodiver.
The wish for Seatime to become even more excellent and to incorporate all features of a real diving watch in it, resulted in the development of Prodiver. A helium valve and waterproofness of 1000 meters guarantee best functionality. This is why the watch is very appreciated by sportsmen and collectors.
2014. Black Forest Limited.
Inspired by the collaboration with Hartmut Esslinger regarding the Rana watch, Jörg Schauer creates a feature called Dynadots bezel. For the first time, the markings on the bezel appear subtly visible. Ascending luminescent dots clearly show the course of time.
2016. Prodiver Blue Limited.
Inspired by STOWAs traditional blue dials we have using many times before. And after launching two other blue dial models, the Flieger Blue Limited (sold out!) and the Marine Original Blue Limited (sold out!) we decided to do again a colorful sportwatch. The dial fits perfect the look of the watch and in combination with the hands it looks a bit more elegant. But of course all prodiver features are keept.
Actual model.
Prodiver lime.
Awarded. The Prodiver. Winner of the Year 2013, 2014 and 2015!
2013. Orange.
In 2013, orange colored Prodiver won hearts of watch collectors worldwide. The watch appears daring and brisk, and gets rewarded for it. Currently, Prodiver is not only available in orange but also lime-colored, which represents Jörg Schauer's favorite tint and the watch he wears during every sports activity.
2014. Limette.
Lime for watch hands appears to be a beautiful and striking spot of color. Again, watchtime.net's voters like it and, in the category of under EUR 2,500.-, Prodiver Lime earns the majority of votes. For that matter, the lime green hands are also available with rhodium and carbon watch dials.
2015. Seatime Black Forest Limited.
Inspired by the collaboration with Hartmut Esslinger regarding the Ranawatch, Jörg Schauer creates a feature called Dynadots bezel. For the first time, the markings on the bezel appear subtly visible. Ascending luminescent dots clearly show the course of time. We launched a limited Edition of 200 pieces with this special bezel, lime hands and titanium case. The collectors respect this innovative idea of the dynadots bezel.
2016. Prodiver Blue Limited.
Limited to 200 watches. Prodiver Blue Limited, the newest watch of our popular sports watch series. The dial is colered with our wonderful STOWA blue. It was a surprise that the watch - before we delivered the first watches - gets a public prize. Many thanks for this.

LONG BEACH - Arson experts today investigated a suspicious fire that broke out at a Long Beach home a short time after three men in their 20s were arrested there for allegedly being in possession of marijuana, psychedelic mushrooms and peyote, authorities said.
The "suspicious" fire broke out at the house in the 1900 block of Caspian Avenue around 45 minutes after last night's arrests, said Long Beach police spokeswoman Nancy Pratt. | POLICE NEWS
Arson investigators found indications an accelerant was used in setting the fire, police said.
A search warrant was served around 10:30 p.m. Thursday at the house after gang officers chasing a suspect earlier in the day noticed evidence of marijuana growing in the rear of the residence, said Long Beach police Sgt. Timothy Long.
Police ended up confiscating 22 growing marijuana plants -- nine that were in a shed and 13 inside the house -- as well as suspected psilocybin mushrooms and peyote cactus, another hallucinogen, and some dried marijuana, Long said.
All of it appeared to be for personal use. "We don't believe they were selling," Long said, adding that the mushrooms were being grown in "a sophisticated lab."
Police called in a hazmat crew to determine the house was safe to enter and firefighters again called in hazmat crews after the fire broke out.
Also found in the house were four boa constrictors, three tarantulas and a scorpion that were being kept as pets, Long said. Animal control officers took custody of the creatures and will hold them until they can be returned to their owner.
The suspects' names were not immediately released. Pratt said they were facing various drug-related charges.

State officials: California beaches are safe from radiation
Headlines on social media have stated the Fukushima incident has caused dangerous levels of radiation to arrive on California's shores. Lawmakers have responded.
"Our goal here is to get the California Department of Public Health to have good information, updated information about what the levels of radioactivity are and reassuring the public that it is safe," said Assemblymember Bob Wieckowski, D-Fremont.
He said that this week about the California State Government's level of communication with the public about raised radiation levels in the Pacific Ocean caused by the Fukushima incident. The California Department of Public Health sent News Channel 3 a press release stating there is no public health risk due to radioactivity related events in Fukushima. They report they have no data to prove the presence of elevated radioactivity on California shores due to the Fukushima incident. They also report recently found higher levels of radiation at half moon bay are due to naturally occurring materials.

Topic: We got to meet Kris!!!
Hi Everyone,
Lauren, Lisa, Kris and myself got to meet for lunch today. It was so wonderful for all three of them to get together and swap stories , show scars, and just be part of a club nobody wants to belong to. We all had so much fun and I hope you all get the chance to meet a fellow CC.org person.
There is such a comraderie and you instantly feel that person is a great friend. We had a wonderful time meeting Kris in person for the first time. She is such an awesome person. We keep in touch with Lisa a lot and she has become such a great friend. Thanks CC.org for bringing people together! I put a pic on here but don't know if it will work. I will try again if it doesn't.
https://www.facebook.com/mobileprotecti … mp;theater
My comments, suggestions, and opinions are based on my experience as a caretaker for my daughter, Lauren and from reading anything I can get my hands on about Cholangiocarcinoma. Please consult a physician for professional guidance.

(written from a Production point of view)
Star Trek: Voyager – String Theory is a trilogy of Star Trek: Voyager novels from Pocket Books. The three books in the trilogy are:
In this Star Trek: Voyager trilogy, the crew of Voyager discovers a region of space that has been used for experiments by the Nacene, the race responsible for their presence in the Delta Quadrant in the first place. Having discovered a space station containing various information about the Nacene, the crew learns that the Caretaker, Suspiria, and numerous other Nacene are exiles, living away from their people as a punishment for tampering with the cosmic strings that the universe consists of; the other Nacene believe it is a sacred duty to care for the strings (although Q told the crew that the Nacene were exaggerating and the strings would be fine on their own).
When Voyager came into possession of the Key that would allow the Nacene to return to Exosia, their home dimension from which they were exiled, a Nacene attempted to infiltrate Voyager by altering the crew's memories to make them believe that the Nacene was Captain Janeway's sister, who had been with them on the mission from the beginning. However, despite her attempts to escape attention, she was quickly discovered thanks to Naomi Wildman and Harry Kim, whose molecular structures were slightly out of sync with the rest of the crew due to them both coming from the duplicate ship created in "Deadlock", and were thus immune to her tampering (she even activated a backup version of The Doctor to try and escape attention, but the two programs were so different that the crew soon realized that something was wrong).
During their research into the space station, Q rescues Tom Paris and Harry Kim from an accident and subsequently recruits them to help him track down an Ocampa/Nacene hybrid who holds the key to repairing damage that has recently been caused to the space/time continuum. During this appearance, Q reveals that omnipotent beings are actually rather fond of games of choice and chance, as it is only under these conditions that beings such as Q can feel the thrill of not being in total control.
The Nacene launched an assault on Voyager to regain the Key, but Voyager was able to hold them off, using the neurotoxin that Tuvok had developed in their encounter with Suspiria. The Doctor becomes trapped in Exosia when the rift is briefly opened, causing photonic energy to be drawn in, and then gets sent into Ocampa's distant past by a Nacene who wanted The Doctor to prevent the birth of a Nacene-Ocampa hybrid that it perceived as a threat. Developing a fondness for the hybrid's mother, an Ocampan general who reminds him of Kes, The Doctor chooses not to prevent the birth, and the Nacene-Ocampa hybrid was able to stabilize reality and negotiate peace between the two Nacene factions (after the hybrid's future self was tracked down by Tom Paris and Harry Kim, aided by a young Q). Aided by Kes, the Nacene evolved to a higher stage of being, as Kes and her "son" – only Kes' body could cope with the strain of giving birth to the hybrid, although another Ocampan contributed the genetic information – returned to Ocampa to repair the ecological damage that the Nacene caused long ago, and, three years later, rain finally fell on Ocampa once more. However, as a result of the rift being opened, all photonic energy in this region of space has been drained away, with a new history being created to 'explain' the change, as well as Janeway's exposure to the Key leaving her vulnerable to certain 'mood swings' in the future, with her only chance at recovery being a continued ignorance of the events that have taken place.

Installment 1 of an opinion series by Linda Bradshaw about SEO and blogging
One of my favorite classes in college was sociology – the study of society. I like to think that we, as bloggers, are members of a fairly new society. One definition of a society I recently found online is: "An organization or association of persons engaged in a common profession, activity, or interest."
Much like any society, each group within that society tends to prefer the company of other people in the same group. Sometimes people find themselves in one group or the other without even realizing that they have choices that they can make to change from one group to another. Rather like "gang" activity on the city streets. If you are born in one area, you are surrounded by the "Purple" gang and if you join a gang, it will be the "Purple" gang, and if you know what is good for you then you will not even talk to a member of a different gang. Now I'm not implying that bloggers are gang bangers, but I think you get the idea of what I'm trying to say! Peer pressure may prevent people from changing to a different group, and fear of rejection from the other group may prevent people from even trying to change membership from one group to another.
Members of one group, in some cases, may feel themselves to be superior to others in different groups, and they may even strongly dislike and/or distrust the other groups. They may even blame their troubles on the other group. This is called "scapegoating" and it is a normal and completely natural way that societies work. The "benefit" of "scapegoating" is that it builds cohesion within the group so that they will put aside their own personal and petty grievances with each other and work together in their desire to focus their negative energy onto the "scapegoat" of the moment.
I'm not saying that is a good thing, but it exists and it can be manipulated by people with great leadership skills. It can be a great motivator for change. That change can be good, or it can be evil. This, for better or for worse, is one of the ways that society works.
The perfect example of this would be how Hitler manipulated the German people into doing terrible things to each other.
Somewhere, sometime, in a universe far, far away, self-proclaimed SEO experts decided to separate SEO techniques into three groups and call them "White Hat" (Google loves) "Black Hat" (Google hates.) and "Gray Hat" (Google suspects but hasn't proved it to be evil yet.) There is a web page that I just found and decided to share for this article that discusses the definitions and differences of the three SEO Hats. As for me, well, I'm a member of the Ladies Red Hat Society, so I'm just a little bit crazy and try to make the best of any situation I find myself in.
(There, now do you see how I got Hitler into a discussion about SEO and hats? I warned you, I'm a little bit crazy! And I am wondering if by putting both of those words in the title of my post I might get some strange search results!)

WINTER PARK, Fla. – The Saint Leo volleyball team did not have much of a response after last night's loss as the Lions found themselves on the wrong end of a 3-0 (25-14, 25-9, 25-20) sweep by Rollins College in Sunshine State Conference action on Saturday afternoon. The win improves Rollins to 9-6 overall and 2-1 in conference, while Saint Leo drops its third-straight contest and falls to 6-6 and 2-2 in the SSC.
Things looked good for the Lions in the early stages as Saint Leo took a 10-5 lead in set one, but the host Tars would shut down the Lions for the remainder of the set, going on a 20-4 run to post the win. After Rollins dominated set two, the Lions would give up a large lead in set three, but would close to within four points to try and continue the match. It was not to be as the Rollins attack closed out the straight-sets sweeps.
Danielle Bletso led the Lions in the losing effort with 10 kills as she hit .350. Heather Martin, notching her second-straight impressive outing, played all three sets hitting .300 and blocking three RC attacks.
As a team, the Lions hit just .070, matching a season low set last week against West Florida.
For Rollins, Megan Hodges hit .348 and connected on 11 kills to lead the hosts. Camille Indest hit .562 with nine kills.
The Lions will return to Saint Leo and regroup before hosting Lynn University on Friday night. Saint Leo and Lynn will get underway at 7:00 p.m. in the Marion Bowman Activities Center.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd got measured, met with some scouts and then left Florida Field.
The rest of his workout will happen in 10 days.
Florida's top draft prospect missed the majority of the school's Pro Day on Tuesday. Widely considered a top-five pick, Floyd skipped the on-field session because of an ankle injury. He has a private workout planned for NFL teams on March 22.
Without Floyd, safety Matt Elam, linebacker Jon Bostic and tight end Jordan Reed were the biggest draws for scouts, general managers and head coaches on a rainy day in Gainesville. Elam, Bostic and Reed are the only other Florida players considered early-round picks heading into next month's draft.
Running back Mike Gillislee, linebacker Jelani Jenkins, safety Josh Evans, offensive lineman Xavier Nixon, defensive tackle Omar Hunter, and receivers Omarius Hines and Frankie Hammond Jr. also worked out.
Representatives from all 32 NFL teams, including Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin and Jacksonville Jaguars coach Gus Bradley, were in attendance. Those two teams also had the only general managers in attendance, Kevin Colbert of the Steelers and Dave Caldwell of the Jaguars.
"That's how a Pro Day is supposed to look at Florida," Gators coach Will Muschamp said. "All 32 teams are here, and that's how it ought to be. If we continue to do a good job evaluating, recruiting and developing our players, which we will, our Pro Days will continue to look that way."
Elam and Reed skipped the 40-yard dash. Elam decided to rely on his time for the NFL combine, and Reed is recovering from a bruised bone in his knee. Reed, Nixon (shoulder) and defensive end Lerentee McCray (shoulder) are scheduled to join Floyd at the private workout in two weeks.
Jenkins may have had the most to prove Tuesday.
He left school after his junior season despite missing the Sugar Bowl because of a broken bone in his right foot, an injury that left him limited at the combine.
"I think today was just to prove that I'm still able to run around," said Jenkins, who added he has private workouts scheduled with the Kansas City Chiefs, Miami Dolphins and Carolina Panthers. "A lot of people were concerned about how he's going to come back after the injury, but I think that's one of the things I proved today. Everything we did out here was still football related, still the same thing I did when I was playing at Florida."
It's unclear how high Jenkins will get drafted.
Elam, Bostic and Reed, however, are expected to be taken by the end of the third round.
All three enjoyed productive careers at Florida.
Elam had 176 tackles, 23 ½ tackles for loss, 13 pass breakups and six interceptions in three seasons. He used Pro Day to show his versatility.
"They see a lot of film of me playing nickel against a slot receiver," Elam said. "There's not a lot of me playing in the back end at middle safety and opening up my hips and showing them how fluid I am and my versatility. I didn't get the chance to do that at the combine."
Bostic, who started 32 games in four seasons, ran the 40 in 4.61 seconds at the combine.
"A lot of eyes were opened at the combine," said Bostic, who said he improved his time to 4.5 seconds Tuesday. "People didn't expect me to run as fast as I did and be as agile as I was. ... The main thing with me was a lot of people wanted to see if I could run. Their prediction for me was 4.8, so that was kinda funny."
Reed, who led the team with 45 catches for 559 yards and three touchdowns last season, will get his chance to run in two weeks. Still, he performed individual drills Tuesday.
"I wasn't going to do anything," Reed said. "Once I got started going hard, I didn't think about (the injury) anymore. That's kind of what happened."
Floyd did even less. He didn't even walk on the field to mingle with teammates and NFL team personnel. Nonetheless, his stock has been on the rise the last two months, and Muschamp believes he knows why.
"The guy can anchor. He can play the run. He's got great initial quickness. He can rush the passer," Muschamp said. "He's everything you want for an inside player. ... From a general manager's prospective, talking to his owner and talking about spending money on a player, a clean player that's got no issues off the field, you know that's a very smart pick in my opinion because you've got a guy that can be a very dominating player that's got so many positive things surrounding him and he's been exposed to so many different things within our scheme."

One more place before you die...
You play these sorts of games when you travel. There's a lot of down time in amongst all those train rides and plane flights and everything, so you have to kill it somehow.
One of my standard time-fillers is the "one more" conversations that I seem to get into all the time – the High Fidelity-style nerdy chats about favourite things. OK, you can only have one more meal in your life – what do you eat? You can only listen to one more album for the rest of your life – what's it going to be?
Another one: you can only travel to one more country for the rest of your life – what's it going to be?
This one, I ponder frequently. The rules are you can travel there as many times as you want, but that's the only country you'll ever get to visit outside of your homeland.
So if you were into beaches I guess you'd choose an island nation. If you were into nature you might go with Canada. If you were into fast food you'd choose the USA.
Mine? There are a few in contention. India is up there, because it's endlessly interesting – human existence there is often boiled down to its smallest, most important elements, but it's all done on a dizzyingly grand scale. But maybe the hassle of India would get tiring after a while, maybe you'd just pine for somewhere to relax.
New Zealand is up there, because it's beautiful and exciting. But maybe you'd want a more foreign culture to explore? Mexico, too, is a place that's diverse and amazing, but it's quite volatile, and gun violence isn't always as fun as the movies make it out to be.
So here's my choice: Japan. I don't think I'd ever tire of Japan. There's something about the country that I've always found fascinating. It's the sort of place that will keep surprising you, keep interesting you.
It's the clash of cultures within a culture that's the source of so much of Japan's appeal. It's all of the contrasts that make it so fascinating.
Japan is old, a place of ancient cities and emperors' rule. You can wander around these tiny old mountain villages, through temples strewn with knotted trees and monks in traditional dress.
But it's also an ultra-modern country, a place of megalopolises, these huge cities that flash and beep at you, with forests of skyscrapers, bustling pavements, and all the trappings of contemporary urban life. Stroll around Shinjuku in Tokyo and you wouldn't think a place could be more modern, more cutting edge.
Japan has ancient traditions that are fiercely preserved. It's built on strict societal rules that are always obeyed. It has cultural quirks from times past that are still adhered to.
But it's also mental. Anyone who's wandered around Harajuku on a Sunday and seen the cosplay girls and gothic lolitas would know that. Anyone who's been out in Amerikamura in Osaka would know. There's a streak of eccentricity that runs deep through Japan, but which seems completely at odds with the neat, orderly façade of the country's society.
Japan can seem extremely conservative. Repressed, even. But then you sit down at an izikaya and the businessman next to you is reading a porn magazine. You hear about the love hotels in the heart of Shibuya, or the fetish clubs in the depths of Roppongi. How does that gel with the buttoned down country you think you know?
It's not just the clashes that make Japan interesting though, and perfect for travel. It's an easy place to get around once you figure out how things work. The language barrier can be a challenge, but one that's always negotiated with good humour.
The food is amazing. From soba to ramen to nigiri to okonomiyaki to takoyaki to tataki and tempura, eating in Japan is one of life's great experiences. Even the convenience store food is good. Everything is perfectly presented, expertly crafted. It all tastes good.
The bars, from traditional izakayas to tiny whiskey dens to huge nightclubs and weird theme pubs, are always great. And sake rules.
As for Japanese people ... you'll never meet a friendlier bunch.
This doesn't mean that the Land of the Rising Sun is necessarily the best tourist destination in the world. But if I could only visit one more country for the rest of my days, that would have to be it.
Which country would you choose if you could only visit one for the rest of your life? Post a comment and tell us where and why below.

Raspberry Pi and Motorola Lapdock
Here's some info for those interested in setting up a Motorola Lapdock to work with the Raspberry Pi. This is extremely easy to set up and should work without the need for any hardware modifications. I used the Atrix Lapdock, which can be found between $50 and $100 on various websites. I used the Debian Squeeze image from the Raspberry Pi downloads section. I haven't had luck with Arch Linux ARM.
Parts List
~Raspberry Pi
~Motorola Lapdock (Atrix works)
~1 USB Male to Micro USB Male cable (Standard cell phone cable)
~1 USB 2.0 A female to Micro USB B female adapter cable FF
~1 Micro HDMI Type D Female to Micro HDMI Type D ~Female Connector Adapter Gold
~1 USB Male to USB Male cable *You will need to open this cable and cut the red 5 volt wire*
~1 MICRO HDMI to HDMI cable
*Please note, my Micro USB and Micro HDMI ports are reversed on my Lapdock due to a previous modification unrelated to the Raspberry Pi. Yours should work out of the box, without any modifications to the Lapdock.
|Slice open the USB Male to USB Male cable and cut the red, 5 volt wire. Tape closed using electrical tape.
|Connect the USB Male to USB Male cable to the Lapdock
|Connect the Micro USB end of the USB to Micro USB cable into the Micro USB power port of the Raspberry Pi
|Make sure your SD card and Ethernet cable are connected, then open your Lapdock to power on your Raspberry Pi!
Sound through HDMIOnce your logged into Debain Squeeze, you will need to edit config.txt and set hdmi_drive=2
Step 1: Enter command sudo nano /boot/config.txt
Step 2: Enter hdmi_drive=2
Step 3: Press Control-x
Step 4: Press y
Step 5: Press [enter]
Step 6: Enter: sudo modprobe snd_bcm2835

I used a Netgear wg111v2 adapter plugged into one of the Lapdock's USB ports. I used this guide as a reference, but obviously my adapter is different. The Debian Squeeze image has the drivers for the wg111v2 adapter preinstalled.
