Not far from Budapest, on the fringes of a forest, there stands Tamás Dévényi's shingle covered new house. The disarmingly simple building creates generous spatial relations on the 1,5 hectare land. The proximity of the bustling city life doesn't mean that we can not relish the convenience of nature and the separation of a farmhouse. Borrowing its form and use of materials from the Central-European peasant architecture, the building's modular structure follows contemporary design thinking.
Via Lauren Moss
"The requirements for a country house have changed a lot during the past hundred years, but using the old Hungarian peasant house's archetype was a good starting point for the design in a situation where the strict local building regulations tie the architects' freedom," said writer Brigi Bugya.

text: New York (ANI): Pop singer Madonna, who has been rumoured to be dating Alex Rodriguez while being in the midst of a divorce battle with estranged hubby Guy Ritchie, is reportedly planning a Malawi getaway with the baseball player. The Queen of Pop, who is a devout follower of the Kabbalah religion, is said to have invited A-Rod to accompany her on her next trip to Malawi, where she has been structuring a Kabbalah-enlightened school. The power-hitting third baseman may trail Madonna when she heads to Brazil, Chile and Argentina in December for her ongoing Sticky & Sweet Tour, according to a source. The ace player had reportedly been in the audience while the singer performed in Los Angeles, reports the New York Daily News. While another source said that the reported figure of a 500,000-dollar donation made by Alex to the actress Raising Malawi was far from the truth, a charity spokesman refused to comment.

BOURNEMOUTH East MP Tobias Ellwood joined hundreds of primary school pupils in their bid to highlight the urgent need for education for children across the world.
He met more than 400 pupils at St Katharine's in Hengistbury Head and heard their reasons for backing the national Send All My Friends To School campaign.
Every pupil was involved in creating a huge 'X' on the school field, waving their paper buddies – symbols of the campaign.
Pupils enjoyed creating the symbol in the summer sun but were aware of the need to stand up for the rights of children across the world.
Teacher Rachel Dickinson told the Daily Echo: "The children are outraged that some 57 million children across the world do not have a school place and they wanted to do something about this.
"They have such fantastic energy and enthusiasm and know that they could make a real difference."
All 466 pupils at the Rolls Drive school made a colourful, cut-out buddy, with a written message to the government, to remind politicians of their promise to make education available to all.
The buddies were presented to Mr Ellwood during his visit in the hope that he will deliver them to Prime Minister David Cameron.
The campaign has been organised by the Global Campaign for Education UK and is asking teachers and their pupils to be creative and remind world leaders that all children throughout the globe have an equal right to learn.

In an attempt to respond to the cultural conversation on the LGBT community, the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary on the campus of Andrews University published a 21-page document showing just how unfit they are to contribute to the conversation. The document, An Understanding of the Biblical View on Homosexual Practice and Pastoral Care, lacks basic understanding of human sexuality as its authors conflate sex, gender, and sexuality.
In this month's Adventist Review, Jimmy Phillips writes about the NFL's draft – specifically on the historical moment of the first openly gay player (Michael Sam) being drafted. Using Sam as a straw man, Phillips uses "scare quotes" to describe Michael's coming out.
Like a lot of denominations, the Seventh-day Adventist church is getting it wrong when it comes to its LGBT youth. We're completely wrong, and we're putting lives at risk. I've spoken up on behalf of dialogue, bridge-building and elevating the conversation between the church and its LGBT members, but sometimes reprehensible acts of spiritual violence and misinformation must be called out directly.
Since my first blog on HuffPost, "I'm a Seventh-Gay Adventist," my email has continually been flooded with people wanting to have a dialogue with me. People of all different backgrounds, religions and beliefs on sexuality have sent emails wanting to have constructive conversations on human sexuality and religion. Above all the other questions I receive in those emails the one that always gets asked is "Why are you still Seventh-day Adventist?"
For years I've been intrigued by languages. Being raised bilingual, I had Spanish and English languages underneath my belt, yet I was always dreaming of traveling, experiencing different cultures and learning new languages. That interest quickly turned into desire, which is why one of the bachelor degrees I'm currently working toward is in French studies. Through my education at my current university, Andrews University, I've had the incredible experience of living abroad in France for an entire school year and traveling through South America for a month, and Europe for another.
"That'll be $31,606.00 plus fees. How would you like to pay for that?"
Like most students, I would like to pay with "fake" money through student loans and worry about the bill down the road. The question many students start to ask only too late is "At what cost?" Christian education is a staple in the Adventist community. "Church, Home, and School" has been touted as the chain links of a young person's spiritual development.
I made my way into the living room and sat down on the comfy couch directly in front of the television screen. I didn't want to miss a second of it. Never in my wildest dreams would Ihave thought there would be a film produced regarding sexual orientation and Christianity, especially within my church. The Seventh-day Adventist church. After an introduction from theproducers of the film, the lights went out and the journey began.

Funds giant Invesco and Altis Property Partners have snapped up a combined $154 million worth of
As foreshadowed by The Australian Financial Review, Invesco has acquired Cromwell's Melbourne office tower at 380 La Trobe Street for $113 million, while Altis purchased Cromwell's HomeBase property west of Sydney for $40.45 million.
Cromwell chief executive
"Cromwell will look to redeploy the sale proceeds over time for balance sheet acquisitions or to support new product offerings by our funds management business."
The first asset, an 18-level A-grade office tower, originally purchased by Cromwell in 2005 for $88 million, will be sold on a yield of 8 per cent.
The 22,000 square metres of office space, mostly leased to global agricultural services company Agrium, will be a key asset in Invesco's new global real estate platform in Australia.
Colliers International's Nick Rathgeber and Leigh Melbourne, and CBRE agents Mark Coster and Mark Granter, handled the La Trobe Street property.
The second asset, HomeBase, acquired by Cromwell in 2012 for $38.5 million, sold to Altis on a premium of 9.6 per cent to its current book value. Mr Weightman said the proceeds of the sale would go toward new investments.
"We continue to seek acquisition opportunities that complement our investment strategy and existing portfolio and to recycle capital employed in smaller non-core assets," Mr Weightman said.

skins-on easy tomato sauce to freeze
I SPEND RAINY DAYS in harvest season writing, and reading, and streaming a bounty of BBC Television series such as "Broadchurch" and "Silk"–oh, what would I do without public TV from both sides of the Atlantic? All the while I'll set consecutive small batches of tomato sauce to bubbling on the stove…destined for the freezer. Keeping things really simple, my basic freezer red sauce goes like this:
fast red sauce for the freezer
- olive oil for sautéing
- 1 large head of garlic, whole cloves peeled
- 3 chopped quarts of plum tomatoes
- fresh basil, chiffonaded (as much or little as you like)
- generous handful of fresh parsley, chopped
- (salt and pepper to taste, if desired)
Sauté all the peeled whole cloves from one head of garlic slowly in olive oil till they are really soft and almost caramelized. I leave the cover on the pan, and use low heat so they don't get crispy (later, the cloves will sort of melt into the sauce).
To the soft garlic, add a mixing bowl full of chopped whole paste tomatoes (above). By mixing bowl I mean 8-inch diameter, holding about 3 liquid quarts.
Yes, I leave on the skins, and leave in the seeds, terrible person that I am! Hey, more fiber and vitamins for me, right? (If you really hated the skins, you could use a food mill to strain them out of the cooked mixture, but I love chunky sauce.)
I do remove any dings or occasionally the cores if they are really substantial – just that greenish-brown spot where the stem attached, I mean, not the innards. But the small, very reliable and productive paste tomato I grow for sauce, the hybrid called 'Juliet' (below) or the newer variety 'Verona,' really don't have much core to fuss over.
Cover, and after things start to soften slightly, add chopped basil to taste. Cover again, and let the ingredients really get thoroughly soft–then remove the cover to let steam escape and the sauce thicken.
I chop some of my favorite parsley, the Italian-style giant flat-leaf type, and add it in after I remove the sauce from the heat, so the leaves just wilt but stay bright green.
The whole process for each small batch might take half an hour, prep to finish. When the sauce is cool, I ladle it into straight-sided canning jars, leaving some headspace for expansion, and freeze. (I say straight-sided because jars with "shoulders" can crack more easily when liquidy ingredients push up while freezing to solid. Wide-mouth straight-sided are best of all.)
One more tip: Vary the size of jars you stash with sauce. Sometimes you just need enough for one serving, like a half-pint jelly jar, or even half that, perhaps to use as the "liquid" in some sautéed vegetables or to enrich another sauce. Other times, company's coming: Make sure there are some quarts on hand.

If you've got a genuine SanDisk and the problem exists, it's been reported by various others. If I were you, I would try the following:
use another SD reader with a different interface, and/or even a different PC (or Mac) to try reading it to rule out defective reader or interface (unlikely)
with the card as-is (i.e. don't format it) try a commercial purpose-built recovery tool like Lexar ImageRescue (try as many as you can). This might not work since these tools work on formatted or corrupted cards (you might be lucky). If that fails, as a probably last resort, try:
format the card in the camera using the Yes, not overwrite (Yes, will just erases the fille allocation table & not the images themselves - this will force a recoverable situation based on no file allocation table), and then try using the above image recovery tool.
alternatively (b)
don't do any of the above, and contact Leica customer support & maybe they'll take on the recovery of your SD images as part of an investigation.
Please make your choice, without holding me responsible
Additionally, (hopefully after you get back your images) I would also suggest a card (write/read) test as I outline in my blog (in sig below). Note this will completelly erase your card. This will prove the card is not defective, and indicate another issue.
Good luck - but sorry to say, I am not optimistic given the extend of the damage.

Boo-Yah: The Supreme Court Turns Down Five State Appeals Seeking To Ban Gay Marriage
Seemingly out of nowhere, a important victory for marriage equality arrived today as the Supreme Court rejected bids from Indiana, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin to ban gay marriage, refusing to address cases in which their federal appeals courts decided that the Constitution affords same-sex couples the same marriage rights as straight couples. Basically, those five states took the issue of gay marriage tot he highest court in the land, after their own lower courts ruled that banning gay marriage was unconstitutional, and the Supreme Court was all "NOPE SORRY, NOT LISTENING." While offering no explanation, this decision makes gay marriage effectively legal in 30 out of 50 states. It also, of course, allows SCOTUS to maintain that the issue of gay marriage is a states rights issue, and while I would seriously prefer they just stand up and make gay marriage as legal as straight marriage, across the board, I suppose when all they'll allow is baby steps towards progress, baby steps is what we'll have to take.

What's fair in the legal profession? And who decides?
Because of NALP, lawyers, law schools and law students are able to connect on an even playing field—which means that lawyers find great jobs in some of the nation's leading firms. NALP also helps law firms and others recruit, develop, and support some of the best legal minds in the country. When faced with the challenge of how best to position themselves with their key audiences, NALP turned to Mission Minded who led the research and strategy that established a new brand. We then helped them bring their brand to life through key messages, visual identity and tagline. The new brand gives focus and clarity to NALP's communications, helping the association better connect with its members.

LOVE was in the air when two Cumbrian churches staged mass wedding ceremonies.
Churches in Crosthwaite and Coniston were part of a nation-wide attempt to break the world record for the number of couples renewing their wedding vows simultaneously.
Crosthwaite Church opened its doors to welcome 21 couples, while a further 18 couples joined in 'The Big Promise' at St Andrew's Church, Coniston.
They were among 1,400 couples who took part in 70 venues across Britain on Saturday.
The Rev Tim Harmer, of St Andrew's Church, and his wife June joined in the celebrations.
Mrs Harmer said: "It was lovely, and a really special moment with everybody taking it seriously and looking into each other's eyes."
Over at Crosthwaite Church, the Rev Michael Woodcock performed a ceremony for people who had been married between four and 55 years.
"Collectively we worked out that we had achieved 721 years of marriage together," he said.
In traditional style, both ceremonies ended with champagne and - cakes.
From Cornwall to Orkney married couples made their promise in unison at 5.15pm and together beat the current Guinness World Record set by 1,089 couples in the United States in 2009, although it has not been officially confirmed.

As the desire for BYOD increases at the edge, the need for flexibility in the core also increases. Extreme Networks has the solution for both.
Announced recently at CommunicAsia in Singapore, Extreme Networks (Nasdaq: EXTR) will support and encourage the use of BYOD within organisations using closely controlled wireless access points.
In conjunction, Extreme's Software-Defined Networks (SDN) strategy will assist in the convergence of desktop and BYOD solutions.
Based on the expectation that there will be almost 15 billion wireless network connected devices (according to Secure Edge Networks) and the expectation that Wireless is always on (just like the lights as Extreme's Bill Wester notes) there is a huge and growing need for versatile wireless access.
Extreme Networks offers a significant advantage by not tunnelling wireless traffic through existing wired infrastructure, but instead implementing "local bridging."
As Wester describes it, "basically our access point can map an SSID directly to a VLAN, and that VLAN can terminate the SSID directly on the switch where the IP [address] is plugged in and that allows the switch to do the data forwarding across the network. That eliminates the data plane portion of the controller's job. We call it Local Bridging, which we believe is the future of wireless network forwarding".
{loadposition davidh08}This means that there is much tighter integration between Wireless Access Points and the backbone switches that manage them.
In conjunction with their announcement of OpenFlow support across the entire range of backbone products, the recognition of BYOD and tightly-integrated edge routing means that any device can be served with corporate-grade networking.
"Customers should be able to program their network like compute and storage apps," said Shehzad Merchant, vice president of technology strategy at Extreme. "Extreme plans to use OpenFlow and other standard protocols to standardize SDNs as part of a larger strategy to create all-Ethernet open fabrics. We believe OpenFlow is shaping up for networks what Linux represented to servers 20 years ago."
As part of their launch at CommunicAsia, Extreme has introduced a range of specialised wireless access points addressing the needs of BYOD and the demands of such users on corporate environments. Details are available at Extreme.

Reviews for Brunch Casserole
Average Rating
"I have made this several times now... and it is FANTASTIC and simple to make!"
"Love this recipe - I've made it several times for work and family breakfasts and it's always a big hit. Unless you have a couple other dishes, it does not serve 8 though. 4-6 servings at most. Plan on doubling for a big group."
"very good and so quick to make. Make it the day before and you are all set for the next morning"
"This was easy to make and very good!"
"Very good and tasty. I don't see wht this couldn't be prepared ahead of time and baked in the morning."
"I have made this many times and my family loves it. We oftten eat it for supper. I sometime add bacon and saucage in it. Tonight I am trying something new I have leftover steak and trying it. My husband loves his steak and eggs."
"I've made this omelet for my family and for special brunches. Even though I have access to and endless number of recipes, this is the one I go back to time and again. And I always receive compliments."

It seemed like while I was playing through Dead Money, I had a HELL OF A TIME getting these things to go off while the Ghost People were swinging them around. I mean I used the Holorifle, the Automatic-Rifle, the Police Pistol...in VATS, outside VATS, and out of maybe 50 tries I got them to blow up once (I had a strong character too, on Level 30, maybe level 32 when I finally got around to entering the bunker, with 100 Guns and 90, then 100 Energy Weapons).
I would chalk it up to this just not being very likely or even possible, but Dean SPECIFICALLY tells you to aim for them!
Anyone else notice this?
Timfever 06:36, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, noticed it too.. It simply seems not possible to detonate it in their hands. It is possible to shoot it out of the air though. xNOKIx 08:10, February 26, 2011 (UTC)
Gas bomb Edit
Thought you were supose to blow it up in their hand, and they do alot of dmg when they explode.
- You would think so after Dean Domino specifically tells you to. Why it's virtually impossible to actually do it is a question we have to ask Obsidian. --an0my(talk) 21:02, October 1, 2011 (UTC)
Bug with throw distance Edit
I'm getting a bug where thrown frags or plasma weapons have pathetic range after using a gas bomb. Can anyone confirm this too? It happens after I throw my last bomb, then use grenades.
Gas bombs w/ Pyromaniac Edit
Is the fire explosion dmg of gas bombs affected by pyromaniac perk?
Bizarre effect Edit
So I walked into the Bitter Springs Recreation Office and found three Giant rats. Scrolling through my inventory to decide how to deal with them, I came across the Gas Bombs I was carrying. Perfect, I thought, as the Gas Bomb's miserable damage-to-weight ratio would make it ideal for use on low-health critters. So I threw one behind the counter and it blew up all three of them. Lo and behold, after being blown up like this their corpses turned partially transparent, and glowed green! --Trogdor
(Reply from robert):There's a certain companion perk where this is supposed to happen for a moment. Thanks for your comment about the "pathetic damage". I was looking into this to determine if they were a waste of a sensor module. It seems with the low skill requirement of 40, they're only useful for an earlier character who can't make bottlecap mines, or someone without lonesome road who can't make satchel charges. Otherwise, you might wanna save your materials for something stronger or more efficient.

So I am trying to convince my old man to start blogging. Lately he has been actively voicing his concern about shark fining - particularly against www.alibaba.com. He has been working with various organizations to spread the message, so far the approach has been subtle - phase two will be more aggressive.
However, I also think it is a great space for him to talk about his experiences, views, and the opportunity to start discussions on various topics. Maybe even post some pictures from his trips.
Get with it old man and Merry Xmas!!!

The Russian Federation contributes 2.1 Million US Dollars to help address micro-nutrient deficiencies amongst women and children in Tajikistan
DUSHANBE, 13 June 2013 – UNICEF Tajikistan received a 2.1 Million US Dollar grant from the Russian Federation to address child malnutrition and micro-nutrient deficiencies amongst women and children in Tajikistan.
Despite significant progress made over the last decade, malnutrition among children and women remains a major challenge for the country. The 2012 Demographic and Health Survey showed little improvement in the nutritional status of women and children in recent years.
The contribution from the Russian Federation will be used to improve the micronutrient status of women and children through targeted micronutrient supplementation with iron, folic acid and other micronutrients. In addition, the donation will contribute to promotion of good nutritional practices, including optimal breastfeeding and adequate and timely introduction of complementary feeding, through capacity building of health staff and community members. The Russian contribution will also help to prevent and treat severely malnourished children through strengthening of therapeutic feeding centres and through community-based interventions in the most affected areas.
The project will be implemented in close collaboration with the Government of Tajikistan during the next three years and will target 200,000 children aged 6-24 months and 150,000 pregnant and lactating mothers, 300,000 caregivers of children aged 0-24 months and 600 primary health care workers across the country.
"This donation from the Russian Federation will contribute to achieving the fourth and fifth Millennium Development Goals in Tajikistan - Reducing Child and Maternal Mortality. Improved nutritional status of children and mothers will contribute to better health and education outcomes and will reduce the economic losses the country suffers as a result of malnutrition", said Laylee Moshiri, UNICEF Representative in Tajikistan.
This year's contribution is the second grant that UNICEF in Tajikistan receives from the Russian Federation in the last two years. In 2012, the Russian Federation allocated 1 Million US Dollars for the national diphtheria immunization campaign to prevent a potential diphtheria outbreak and for improvement of routine immunization services.

Dear Sugar
I have been best friends with my neighbor Steve ever since I can remember. Suddenly, out of the blue, he started acting really strange around me. I could swear that he's flirting with me and I feel really weird about it. Now I don't know how to act around him. Do you think talking to him about how I only love him as a friend will make things better or worse? I just want things to go back to the way they've always been between us. Missing My Buddy Missy
To see DEARSUGAR's answer
Dear Missing My Buddy Missy
Every time you think that a man and a woman can be platonic friends, one of them gets a crush and ruins everything. Think about When Harry Met Sally .
I am sorry that your best bud has to be your first lesson on this subject. It can be very upsetting and confusing to find out that one the person who you thought was interested in your well being really has an ulterior motive.
It's unfortunate when only one person finds the other attractive in "that way." It would be ideal if it worked out so that everyone got to date/marry their best friend of the opposite sex - but life doesn't usually work out like that and someone always gets hurt. Here's my advice.
If you've been confiding in him about your love interests – stop. He could be feeling territorial. If he's heard you talk about feeling interested in dating someone else, then maybe it's making him want what he can't have. Men like competition.
I would try my best just to act normal and let it go until it really becomes a problem or he confronts you. Don't embarrass him and bring it up because maybe it will pass. Then you will have wished you never addressed it head on. When you see him next, treat him like you would any other day.
Hopefully he'll understand that you always have and always will just seem him as a best bud.

That Awkward Moment
Yesterday a student asked a question so good that I didn't have an answer.
I'm hoping my wise and worldly readers will have a suggestion for a good response.
We were talking about the implications of more classes moving to OER. Most of the implications are positive: less debt for students, everyone has the textbook on day one of class, and the like.
Then the student asked the stumper:
Wouldn't the last group of students who bought regular textbooks be marooned, since they couldn't re-sell the books after the switch to OER?
I didn't have an answer for that.
Is there a better answer for that than "such is the price of progress?"
<< Home
Only adopt an OEM for the course as the course's traditional textbook goes to a new edition, which kills the resale value of the previous edition
Considering the nationwide market for books, Amazon prices wont change much. The transition will be gradually, not sudden from that perspective.
Used textbook prices fluctuate rapidly depending on which schools are still using a particular edition. Most used books lose value gradually, even after a new edition comes out, as other schools gradually switch over. A gradual switch to free online texts would cause a similar slow loss of value for used books.
That is quite easy, as the first comment pointed out. The last student who bought edition N the semester before a change to edition N+1 is just as much out of luck, and that happens every three years or so in the current scheme of things.
Doesn't this depend quite a bit on local campus bookstore set-up? My graduate institution had a warehouse/distribution center for a bookstore, rumored to be the largest run by a university anywhere. My current institution's bookstore is a Barnes and Noble. They seem to send all the books back to a center BN location every semester... so I can adopt OER scot-free, I think.
If your campus bookstore is part of a nationwide chain, they buy based on national prices. There will be a bit of a hit on resale value because sometimes buyers offer a premium if they know they won't have to ship the book to a distribution warehouse, but there won't be a huge change in prices overall/
Do you know how HARD it is to resell textbooks? I've never made enough back to even consider it worth the effort. Most semesters they go in the recycling bin.
My campus bookstore is part of a nationwide chain (B&N). They have NEVER accepted back one of my books. Not once, no matter how pristine the condition.
Plenty of resellers out there redistribute to other colleges. You're in a relatively dense area for colleges, so it shouldn't be too hard to find a market. If it was Community College of Middle-of-Nowhere, maybe it's a different issue.
Given that it will be gradual, I expect that to be a very small subset, and given that it will likely happen last at the Ivies, they can afford it.
They'll miss out on the 'retail' buy from the local bookstore, but the buyback is probably handled (or at least aided) by a national wholesaler who would still be buying the books, albeit for less money.
Timing the oer transition to happen when the new edition comes out would mean no buyback value at all regardless, which would eliminate the unfairness to the students, but wouldn't feel like it to them.
Timing the oer transition to happen when the new edition comes out would mean no buyback value at all regardless, which would eliminate the unfairness to the students, but wouldn't feel like it to them.
What's the baseline you're comparing to? Students won't be able to resell their current traditional textbooks, but then they'll save money by not having to buy new textbooks. The latter is likely greater than the former, so compared to the current world, they'll save money.Post a Comment

Spyro: Year of the Dragon
Review by Robbie Kennedy
"Spryo. Great for all"
Spyro the Dragon. Some call it the rival to Crash Bandicoot. Some say it is much better. And I think they are about the same. They are both really fun to play and are great for all ages.
New boss this time. Basically, All The Dragons are sleeping when a magic portal pops out. Out comes a witch and 2 henchmen. They then proceed to steal all the dragon eggs. One of them trips and the noise wakes up Hunter, the Leopard. He then wakes up the other dragons and tries to go after the witch and henchmen but gets stuck so they get away. Fast forward to the witch reporting to her head mistress and Zoë, the fairy, spots them and reports to the dragons and tells them where they are hiding. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, wait, you have to accept it, is to rescue all the dragon eggs and beat the witch.
The graphics are great in the game. The fire looks awesome and there is a reflection in the water.
There are a couple of new additions to this game. Before, you could not touch water, but now, you can swim in water and dive in it. You can also skateboard and ride in various vehicles. Skateboarding is crucial to get quite a lot of the dragon eggs but it is easy to learn, and easy to master. This is more than can be said for real life.
You also have a diving spinning headbutt that you can use. And, wait for it, you can control 5 characters including Spyro. Without going into great detail, you can buy other characters affected by the witch from the ever popular (not really) Sir Humphrey Moneybags. They all have unique skills and unique moves. One of them flies, one has a laser and the others are good as well.
Using these characters well is crucial to getting past the levels. There are character specific levels so you need them. And during boss fights, they will pop along and give you stuff to help beat the bosses which is great.
There are also some new non playable characters (NPC's). These include a professor who will give you stuff to help you in your quest to rescue all the dragon eggs.
The loading times have gotten a lot shorter in this game which is good if you are pressed for time. There is also much improved voiceovers so there is virtually no pause while it loads up the file the voice and text are stored on.
There is a much greater number of levels than there were in the previous Spyro games. And there is a great tutorial hub which was not found in previous games so if you are new to playing the Spyro series, you can easily learn how to play.
Overall, it is a great game. Only flaw is the speed that Spyro moves at but that is perfectly acceptable. I would recommend you get this game as it is quite fun to play and people of all ages will enjoy playing it.
Reviewer's Rating: 4.0 - Great

Virgin America, the airline that carries Boing Boing Video as an in-flight TV channel, launched service from Los Angeles to Dallas-Forth Worth, Texas this week. I joined other press for the inaugural flight, to live-tweet snapshots of the festivities. This included a bunch of cowboys and longhorn steer right on the tarmac at landing, and later, a "secret" performance by Willie Nelson with impromptu on-stage hoedown involving Sir Richard Branson and gorgeous flight attendants.
As a business story, their upstart break into the Dallas market is interesting: 80% of flights into and out of this hub have been American Airlines, until now. But as a visual story, I found it even more interesting.
Highlights of the evening: Sir Richard wearing a "Free Willie" t-shirt to introduce Sir Nelson, and asking, "Wouldn't it be nice if we lived in a world where they decriminalized [marijuana]?" And, sitting so close to the stage, I could read the tiny words carved into the face of Willie's beat-up guitar. He tossed one of his bandannas to me during the show, and I got a kiss and a handshake.
As has been widely reported, Nelson was just busted for weed by federal Border Patrol agents at a checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas. When Branson introduced the 77-year-old Texas native (who appeared to be in better shape than I!), he said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I recently met someone who is so fit, he lost six ounces just last night. Please welcome Willie Nelson." What an amazing performer and a totally cool human being. — Xeni

ACTA - Civil Enforcement Summary
Lydia Grunstra
April 23, 2010
April 23, 2010
The EU released the first official consolidated draft of ACTA on Wednesday. Below is a summary of the section on Civil Enforcement and an analysis of how this latest text differs from previous leaked versions.
This section features no major changes from earlier draft versions. It dictates that parties to ACTA shall make civil or administrative procedures available to right holders regarding enforcement of either IP rights or copyright and trademark rights (the type of rights implicated is still under debate). Disagreement over the scope of the treaty – whether it covers copyright, trademark, and/or patent rights – is a recurring theme throughout the text.
1. Each Party's judicial authorities have the ability to issue injunctions to deter infringement and prevent the import or export of infringing goods. Here, the negotiators added language qualifying the judiciary's authority to issue injunctions for infringing goods "subject to any statutory limitations under its domestic law," perhaps acknowledging concerns about ACTA overriding the domestic law of participating countries.
2. This provision, included in earlier drafts, allows right holders to enjoin ISPs for their customers' infringing activity, regardless of whether or not the ISPs promoted such infringement or whether their products or services were capable of substantial non-infringing uses. ("The Parties [may] shall also ensure that right holders are in a position to apply for an injunction against [infringing] intermediaries whose services are used by a third party to infringe an intellectual property right.")
1. Under this provision, judicial authorities have the power to order the infringer to pay the right holder damages. When determining the amount of damages, judicial authorities must consider "any legitimate measure of value submitted by the right holder." In previous versions of the treaty, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand had argued for softer language ("judicial authorities may consider…") but the U.S. and Japan prevailed. The current language provides great deference to the right holder in determining damages.
2. This section provides a framework for the types of damages an injured right holder may receive, including "pre-established damages" (i.e., statutory damages), actual damages, or "additional damages." This last option is a new addition to the treaty: although a footnote in the text states that "No Party is required to provide the right holders with more than one of the options" for damages listed, it implies that a Party may still choose to do so.
Absent here are suggested clauses from previous leaked versions of ACTA mandating that damages "constitute a deterrent to future infringements." Nevertheless, the inclusion of statutory damages achieves the same deterrent/punitive effect. Statutory damages have been a highly controversial addition to ACTA. Many countries do not currently impose statutory damages for IP infringement, and in those that do, like the U.S., the system has been criticized for allowing disproportionately high awards in relation to the harm suffered.
3. Even where an actor did not know or have reason to know that he was infringing, he can still be held liable for actual or statutory damages. This provision is in keeping with earlier leaked texts of ACTA.
4. Right holders have the right to elect either actual or statutory damages (where available), a provision in keeping with U.S. copyright law.
5. Two options have been put forth for paragraph five of this section. Under either option, judicial authorities shall be able to order the losing party to pay the prevailing party's court costs or attorney's fees and "other expenses as provided for under that Party's domestic law" (a phrase absent from previous drafts). On the one hand, this could deter right holders from bringing frivolous infringement claims that would not stand up in court. On the other hand, it will also impose a greater burden on defendants found liable for infringement.
1. At the right holder's request, judicial authorities may order either pirated/counterfeit or infringing goods to be destroyed without compensation. The main difference between this version of the treaty and earlier drafts is that the more serious remedy, destruction (which was suggested by the U.S.), has now been added to the main text, while other alternatives (such as removing the goods from the channels of commerce) are still bracketed for discussion.
2. "Materials and implements" predominantly used to manufacture or create the infringing or pirated/counterfeit goods may also be destroyed without compensation or "undue delay." This could include devices or systems that have been used for infringement, even if they also have non-infringing uses.
3. The remedies listed above shall be carried out at the expense of the infringer, "unless particular reasons are invoked for not doing so."
4. Judicial authorities "shall take into account the need for proportionality between the seriousness of the infringement and the remedies ordered as well as the interest of third parties."
This section allows judicial authorities to order alleged infringers to provide to the judiciary or the right holder information regarding people involved in "any aspect of the infringement" (including third parties involved in the distribution or production of infringing goods or services) and the means of production or distribution channel of such goods or services.
Two important changes here: first, the word "alleged" was added to the text. This means that judges can compel not only proven infringers, but also suspected infringers, to release sensitive information to right holders. Secondly, the new draft does away with the qualification from earlier versions that the distribution must be "on a commercial scale" in order for this section to apply. This broadens the scope of the provision to apply to individuals.
Parties to ACTA may issue injunctions to prevent "imminent infringement." This applies to infringing intermediaries as well (e.g., ISPs). Even before "the commencement of proceedings on the merits," judicial authorities may seize or take samples of the infringing goods or documents "to preserve relevant evidence." The courts must act on requests for provisional measures "without undue delay." This phrase eliminates the possibility that courts will be held to a specific time period for responding to right holder requests (the U.S. wanted a 10 day turnaround time for such action, Mexico 20 days), but the provision still forces courts to process IP cases with unnecessary haste and prioritize them over other matters. Authorities may (but do not have to) require the plaintiff to provide "any reasonably available evidence" regarding infringement and to provide "a reasonable security or equivalent assurance" to prevent abuse of the defendant. However, the text also stipulates that "such security or equivalent assurance shall not unreasonably deter recourse to such procedures."
This recent draft of the treaty also omits a paragraph included in earlier versions, which allowed provisional measures to be revoked upon the defendant's request if the plaintiff failed to institute proceedings within a month. Removal of this paragraph allows right holders to request injunctions of suspected infringing goods without having to prove in a timely fashion that the goods were in fact infringing or counterfeit.

Medtronic on Thursday announced that it is enrolling the first patients in its MIRACLE EF global clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers (CRT-Ps) in delaying the progression of heart failure in patients with mildly reduced heart pumping function.
The study will be the first to evaluate CRT-P in what Medtronic calls a widely underserved patient group – those who have a slightly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) but whose hearts work a bit more efficiently than heart failure patients who are currently approved for the device.
The CRT-P devices used in MIRACLE EF are not approved by the FDA for the patient population being studied. Dr. Edward Schloss performed the first implant at The Christ Hospital's Lindner Research Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. The primary investigator for the site is Dr. Greg Egnaczyk.
"Previous studies have proven the real-world therapeutic benefits of CRT in treating mildly to severely symptomatic heart failure patients with moderately to severely reduced cardiac pumping capacity and electrical dyssynchrony," said Professor Cecilia Linde of Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, and worldwide principal investigator in the trial. "Through this large global study we hope to further our research on the overall effectiveness of CRT-P by showing its benefit in treating patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure symptoms, but with milder impairment of heart pumping capacity than previously studied."
Medtronic said that up to 2,300 patients at approximately 275 centers throughout the world – including in the United States, Canada, Europe, Japan and developing markets – will be enrolled in the trial. Patients will be followed for at least two years or until close of the study. The trial is expected to take four to five years to complete.
"We are hopeful that, when completed, MIRACLE EF will influence clinical practice guidelines regarding the use of advanced cardiac resynchronization devices and potentially lead to another expanded indication for Medtronic CRT devices," said David Steinhaus, M.D., vice president and general manager, Heart Failure, and medical director for the Cardiac Rhythm Disease Management business at Medtronic. "We look forward to the positive implications these findings could have on heart failure patients whose disease is less pronounced, yet who still experience symptoms and need advanced therapeutic solutions."

US retailers posted August sales that exceeded forecasts, according to data compiled by retail analysts at Retail Metrics Inc. and the International Council of Shopping Centers. Same-store sales for chain stores on a whole rose by 6%, driven by promotions for back-to-school shopping as well as cooler weather conditions.
Sales were also aided by state sales tax holidays.
The research collected tracked same-store sales for more than 20 retail chains, excluding drug stores and Wal-Mart. Same-store sales are sales in stores that have been open at least a year, and do not take into account sales made online.
Wet Seal and Zumiez were the only retailers that did not meet sales expectations.
Analyst Chris Donnelly told Bloomberg: "Despite a lot of challenging macroeconomic fundamentals, the American consumer finds these opportunities where they just pick themselves up and they go out and shop, and that's what we saw this month."
A strong third quarter is expected, boosted by August sales. Women's wear and home goods are forecast to rise 8%.
Top Retailers
Gap, Macy's, Nordstrom, Bon-Ton and Target all saw an increase in sales, with Nordstrom leading the way and benefiting from its Anniversary Sale to see a major increase of 21%. Estimates had been around 11%.
Gap saw sales rise 9%, with sales highest in its Old Navy chain, which reported a 12% increase. Estimates for Gap had been around 5.4%. Macy's, which includes Bloomingdale's, saw sales rise over 5%, beating estimates of 3.3%.
At the lower end of the increases, Target saw sales rise 4.2% and Bon-Ton had a 2.2% increase.
Back-To-School Retail
Back-to-school shopping for K-12 and college students is expected to total close to $84 billion this year, according to the National Retail Federation. The back-to-school shopping season runs August and September, and is the second-highest selling season.
The increase in back-to-school sales gives retailers confidence going into the holiday season, analysts say. However, rising gas prices, unemployment and weather conditions could have an impact on holiday shopping.
Some 70% of US economic activity is from consumer spending, reports Reuters.
Key Statistics - US Apparel Retail Industry (source: MarketLine)
- In 2011, the apparel retail industry in the US had revenue totaling over $329 billion. Between 2007- 2011, this represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of close to 2.7%.
- In 2011, the US apparel retail industry's most lucrative segment was women's wear, which had revenue of over $170 billion, or nearly 52% of the total industry value.
- For the five-year period 2011–2016, the industry's performance is predicted to accelerate to a CAGR of 3.1%. By the end of 2016, the industry is forecast to be valued at $384 billion.

4 Of the coming of the Elves
Following the special desire of Arvegil145 I post here my first draft of chapter 4 Of the coming of the Elves.
Our basis text is that of Later Quenta Silamrillion given in HoME 10; page 158-171. Were ever the text is different from that of including the changes introduced in the second phase (LQ2) this is marked by an editing mark.
The markings are:
CE-EX-xx for Of the coming of the Elves, Expansion
CE-SL-xx for Of the coming of the Elves, story line
Some conventions of my writing:
Normal Text is from the basic text that is mentioned above (when I change the basic-Text it will be mentioned)
Bold Text = source information, comments and remarks
{example} = text that should be deleted
[example] = normalised text, normally only used for general changes
<source example> = additions with source information
example = text inserted for grammatical or metrical reason
/example/ = outline expansion
Normally if an inserted text includes the beginning of a new § these is indicated by a missing > at the end of the § and a missing < at the beginning of the next.

It looks great (so far), but I haven't looked at it closely enough. I've been busy these days, and could not afford to take a more thorough look at it.
And jumping ahead a little - is Elulindo still valid as a son of Olwë? And where would you (if you would indeed) place Gostir, the dragon known only by name - but I think that it needs a mention somewhere.
In any case - I will be analyzing your post with great attention. And I have only praise for your relentless work.

Elulindo seems to be still valid, but I see no role he would play in any narative. Therefore I think if included at all it will only be in genelogical tables if we provide these.
I don't remember Gostir at all in the moment. Please provide us with a source information about him.

Looking deeper into the case of Elulindo, I have some doubts. When the charachter recieved the Name, he was the son of Elwë or Elu in the speak of his own people. Then Olwë, the brother Elu took ofer the role of the 'Lord of the Ships'. We knew that Olwë had many sons. but we can by no means be sure that on of them was still suposed to be named Elulindo.
About Gostir: I can see why you would like to have him mentioned, but I see not were we could include him without cerating a fact that is not based on any hint from JRR Tolkien. If you can think on a way to introduce him under that premission, I will gladly discuss it with you.

I promissed to give some comments on my changes and here is the first part of this:
First an unusual general change {Morgoth}[Melkor]: I suppose we start calling him Morgoth after Feanor named him thus.
CE-EX-01: The sleep of Yavanna entered the history only in AAm therefore we need this addition.
CE-SL-01: In the later scripts the Balrog were not made by Melkor.
CE-EX-02: Again a long insert from AAm, but what is said there is otherwise not found.
CE-EX-03: The reason from council should be given.
CE-EX-04: Here I have inserted the Legend of the Awaking of the Quendi. As this is a relatively late text I see good reason to insert it.
CE-SL-02, -03, -04 and -05: Our version is a flat earth story, there fore we have to change all passages that refers to the day cycle.
CE-SL-06, -07: This editorial additions serves the same reason: It brings this to reference to the sun and the daytime in line with a flat earth version.
CE-EX-05: A long addition from AAm where the more detailed description is given.
CE-EX-06: Following the idea of gondowe, I added part of the Orc-texts from MT here, and therefore this sentence has to go.
CE-EX-07: I start with the how Melkor did it.
CE-EX-08: The transition to the etymological stuff might be a bit hard. I would appreciate if some one comes up with some thing smother.
CE-EX-09: We also might consider too take more then only the introduction.
CE-EX-10: This half sentence is moved to a later position.
CE-EX-11: If we want transport the full picture, this info from the Munby letter has to included.
CE-EX-12: I just wanted to indicate the origin of the text we go on with.
CE-EX-13, -14: Since what follows in my draft is exactly this consideration of the ultimate origin I changed this sentence accordingly.
CE-EX-15: This sentence was moved.
CE-SL-08: Again we stick to our flat earth version and to the time structure in which Men arrive with the first rising of the sun.
CE-EX-16: This is a change made by JRR Tolkien himself.
CE-EX-17: I included this additional info about the Maia-Orks because I found it important. But I removed the comparison to Sauron. We have to discuss if we want to keep the poltergeist.
CE-EX-18: This reference to the third age must go.
CE-EX-19: In the end this is more a paragraph taken out.
CE-EX-20: This back reference is to the paragraph taken out.
CE-SL-09: Again Men are not available until much later.
CE-EX-21: This wild mixture is to e included, I think.
CE-EX-22: Again a reference to Morgoth to be taken out.
CE-EX-23: A last summary of the Ork creation.
I will follow with further comments as fast as I can handle.

One more character came to my mind while I was rereading the Lost Tales: Ainairos - although he doesn't come until later - should he be kept? I don't see a reason why he shouldn't.

Uffff. With patience. I need time to revise. Of course with a first look, there are many things very different with my edition. For the moment only say that, in my opinion, the MT texts in many cases are very "essayist" to include in a "narrative" stuff. (CE-EX-39 f.e.).
Well, when I can do it.

A second go on Comments:
CE-EX-24: This headline for the sub-chapter has no source in Tolkien. If someone has more authoritative idea I would gladly take it.
CE-EX-25: At this point the source info was wrong. Actually we change back to our basis text LQ.
CE-SL-10: Ælfwine is out of our version and this does together with our inserts provoke the grammatical change from {they}the Elves.
CE-SL-11: Oromë's help in making language is mention some were else already and the rest is deleted due to Tolkiens own change.
CE-EX-26: The pure joy of the Valar at the coming of the Elves is only hinted at in the later legendarium. I see nothing that speaks against the more direct version of LT.
CE-EX-27: In the later legendarium Oromë seems no longer in need of his mother to tell him about the children of Eru.
CE-EX-28: Angainor is still valid as the inserts from MT show. So I think we should also take up it making. At least we should take the next paragraph with the counsel taken.
CE-EX-29: The change from the direct story telling of LT to the remote comments of the essays from MT adds a nice contrast.
CE-SL-12: In the later legendarium the Valar have to deal with Utumno and Angband.
CE-EX-30: The armour taking of the Valar might be to pictorial, but I find it still fitting.
CE-EX-31, -32: Okay, Makar and Messa have no place in our version.
CE-EX-33: In the later legendarium some tasks that were Nonores were taken up by Eönwë and of course all the parts of Fionwe. Thus we might choose if Eönwë should be behind Manwë on the chariot or go before.
CE-EX-34: Nahar, Orome's horse is white not brown.
CE-EX-35: If one of the Valar of the later legendarium would be probable to have a son then it is Tulkas, but still I think it is much safer to leave Telimektar out of our version.
CE-SL-36: Ops! A pure numbering error it should be CE-SL-13. To the point itself, as we learn from MT even in this battle Melkor was not willing to fight it out personally.
CE-EX-36: Here follow a long insert from AAm which provides the best description of the war.
CE-EX-37: This is an insert in the insert. And it takes the breaking of the gates from LT. No later account is found how the Valar broke that gate, so why not by the magic of Oromë's horn?
CE-EX-38: These changes are based on Tolkiens plan to reduce the number of the Balrogs and by that make them more formidable. As we have based our work in FoG on the assumption 3 or maximum 7 we are obliged to take this changes as well.
CE-EX-39: Here it is high time for this addition, as it explains nicely what the Valar had archived in the war up to this point.
CE-EX-40, -14: As explained in my last post, Morgoth has to go. But the theory here bound to that name is valid and for sure worth recording.
CE-EX-42: This is the only descriptive look into the pits of Utumno we will ever get. It would be a shame to lose it.
CE-EX-43: This is dangerous territory. Has Melkor given to the Orcs and Balrogs the power of recuperation and multiplication? Not if the Orcs were at least in part Elves, Men, Maiar or even pre-existing beasts and for the Balrogs not if they are Maiar. Therefore I think it much more safe to eliminate the examples.
CE-EX-44: Again a description from LT that never changed: The gates of Utumno were blocked but the caverns were still full of evil creatures that a times would find a way out.
CE-EX-45: We later seldom get a chance to ears drop on the Valar in council.
CE-EX-46: Again Makar the War-God of Tolkien that later was removed.
CE-SL-14: Melkor is no longer bound. He has to hold his peace by himself or his plans, recorded in the MT-passages would come to light.
CE-SL-15: Again: Melkor is unchained.
CE-EX-47: Here at long last we come back to our basis text. And we have to discuss if Melkor was bound with Angainor while he was prisoner in Mandos or not. My feeling is that this was not the case. The reclusion was probably not even meant as a punishment but a help in repentance and selfabasement in order to reassemble his 'disperesed' inherent power.
CE-SL-16 and -18: This rearrangement is due to my additions. Probably we can delete what follows as redundant, but found it more profitable to keep at least the three ages of peace.
CE-SL-17: Again we are talking of Utumno and Angband and not one of them alone.
CE-EX-48: Here we have the next chance to listen directly to the Valar in council.
CE-EX-49: Nearly a regular change from the later abounded children of the Valar to their folk.
CE-EX-50: Ulmo is the one Valar that we knew to oppose the bringing of the Elves to Valinor. Therefore I shifted this argument of Makar to him even so that might be discussed.
CE-EX-51: Again, we know that Ulmo was in opposition to this.
CE-EX-52: Being back in our basic text we add here the info who brought the message to Cuivienen.
CE-EX-53: The second council again reported most excellently in LT. Here might be mentioned that the motive for Ulmo's smile is changed significantly. When it was written he hope for the Elves to come soon, now he has found some hope that they might refuse the summon.
CE-SL-20: The old timeline had Melkor in prison for a long time when the Elves arrived. This was clearly changed.
CE-EX-54 to -58: AAm and LT have here the fuller accounts and are therefore the texts I have chosen.
With CE-EX-59 begin the additions from Q&E, but since it is getting late already and I think I missed at least one of these, I will stop here and come back to it later this week.
About Ainairos: Up to now I have not included him or his role as leader of the Teleri party speaking against the Noldor after the kin-slying into my draft. But now he will be one of the points checked before I post these part of my draft.

Before I go on with my comments on the changes I would like to introduce some more material:
Here only the comments on the first part I added:
CE-EX-09 and -12: I changed the source inforamtion to make clearer where to find this text.
CE-EX-13.2: This is Appendix C of Q&E. It is very linguistic stuff, but with some info include that seems to me worth consideration.
CE-EX-13.3: I moved this paragraph up to hold the info about manish tongues together.
CE-EX-13.4: This should be used later. Probably in the chapter 13 Of the Sindar.
CE-EX-13.5: I moved this Note from the Essay into a footnote in our text.

On we go with my comments:
CE-EX-58.3: Here I added the linguistic Information about the Name Avari.
CE-EX-58.4: Since we moved the texts we have to Change the reference.
CE-EX-58.5: Again here, but 'it will been said' seems not okay for me.
CE-EX-59: As this contains a lot of Information about the debate among the Quendi I find it improtant to include it.
CE-EX-60: This should probably have been a -SL- number, but the fact is the sun is not around in our version of this time.
CE-EX-60.3: The Calben/Morben info fits (if at all) in this place.
CE-EX-60.4: The reference is to paragraph we did not take up fully, so it has to go.
CE-EX-60.5: Both Information (about Eöl and Saeros insult) must be considered for inserting in the proper place in the narative.
CE-EX-61: The Long Addition from Q&E does bring in the Information about relative numbers of the sundering of the Elves.
CE-EX-62, -64 and -65: Here are inserted the lingustical information about the respective clan names.
CE-EX-63: A Change in the Basic text made by JRR Tolkien.
CE-EX-66, -67 and -68: The use and Definition of 'Umanyar' is much broder given in Q&E.
CE-EX-69: The journey of the Eldar is best described in AAm.
CE-SL-21: Do we hold that chronology? I found it safer to remove the years.
CE-EX-70: Namo is no longer valid as shown in Q&E below.
CE-EX-71: Linguistics about the Nandor, denying the validity of Namo.
CE-EX-72: Do we Change the chronology? If yes, These might stand. Safest way would probably be to remove both 'not' and 'long'.
CE-EX-73: Again we take up AAm because it gives the fuller account.
CE-SL-22: Again a question if we want to fix the chronolgy or not.
CE-EX-74: I couldn't resist this nice and melacholic part from LT maken clear how horiable that journey must have been.
CE-EX-75 and -76: Linguistics about the Sindar.
CE-EX-77: Since Dân no longer seems to be the right name, his people should be named after him.
A view Point in addition:
- I have marked that I missed some of Tolkiens notes especialy in thses last paragraphs. I will later work on that point.
- I am currently think about an addition here from Q&E about the Falathrim and probably including the Essay Círdan.

Okay, I did the work with the Notes directly, so why not share it:

Okay, I discovered a mistake of mine: Starting with CE-EX-73 I expanded a part of the LQ that was deliberately a summary of events told later in a much fuller account. The summary is given at this place to complete lingustical account (that is original in LQ) of the names of the Elvish groups. The next chapter 6 Of Eldamar and the Princes of the Eldalië begins with the Vanyar and Noldor reaching the shore of Beleriand. Therefore here is only the palce for linguistic information to be added and not for expansion the story telling. I worked through the text again keeping that in mind and give it here starting with last paragraph before the changes begin. This paragraph is from an addition coming from Q&E:
CE-EX-73 (with CE-SL-22) This Story is told in the next chapter. If the AAm has to be inserted there must be discussed when we edit that chapter.
CE-EX-74 Same is true for this material from [/b]LT[/b].
Accordingly §30 of the original LQ is restored.
CE-EX-75 and -76: These are unchanged from the last version.
CE-EX-76.1: This is a long addition from Q&E. It includes some farther information about the Sindar an general but also adds names in Sindarin for the Noldor and the devision of the Sindar themselves.
CE-EX-76.2: The reference was from one part of Q&E to an other, but due to my editing they are now very close together.
CE-EX-76.3: I removed this spoiler. The enmity between Thingol and the Feanorians should not be fortold.
CE-EX-76.4: Here I removed the structure of the Q&E text.
The last 3 paragraphs about the Círdans folk I would rather use in chapter 6 Of Eldamar and the Princes of the Eldalië were also the essay Círdan is used.
