Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Review by l Dudeboy l
"I want my own Dagger of time now so I can spend more time playing this"
I'll start by saying, WOW. When I played this I was blown away from square one right down to the end, I couldn't stop playing, I had to be pulled away to go to school, I didn't eat much for days and lost half a pound by the time I finished......Ok, so maybe I exaggerated a bit but this game is highly addictive if action/adventure games are your thing.
Prince of Persia lets you into the game giving you examples of each type of move or trick he can do so you can get into the game and (hopefully) master these techniques for the harder stuff later on. You learn most of his tricks and moves early on but as you go, you'll pick up a couple of other nice tricks to help continue with the game and make things a little easier for you.
Even after bashing your way through 50 hoards of sand monsters you'll still be ready and wanting to bash in a few more faces, nothing feels better than pulling off a stylish move, slashing an enemy and then finishing it off. The puzzles will cause you to use up a few brain cells trying to work them out but when you get the hang of how to think of ideas crazy enough to solve a puzzle you'll not only feel good for doing it but you'll be wowed by the amount off style the Prince can put into doing the stuff he does
Luckily the game doesn't ruin itself by giving a hard to follow story where you spent more time trying to work out why you're doing what you're doing, it's as simple as 'you messed up, now sort it out' but you may think ''That 'aint much of a story'' but that's where the game grips you and keeps you playing, as you continue, you can see the development between you and you're new found partner Farah develops and laugh when prince talks trash when she's not around.
You can see every bit of detail in every inch of every meter, this looks amazing, you can see mountains in the distance where the developers spent as much time making sure that they look as real as everything else in the game, when the sun sets, the sky fills with an orange glow that shines on the Prince and fills the whole screen as he hangs on the edge of a pole by his fingertips, this is xbox at it's best. When it comes to music, the game smoothly changes from being an eerie tune as you go through an old abandoned part of the palace to a rock mixed with Arabian music as you battle to keep the Prince alive. When he's hit you hear him cry with pain, speaking about the prince, his voice acting is done superbly, it sounds really authentic and if I had the choice, I wouldn't change a thing
Play time/Re playability
Some people might and have argued that this game is a bit too short, I wont argue there because I thought it was lengthy enough for me because I was enjoying it too much to care but that's not the point. It could have done with being a bit longer as it seemed to end just a bit too soon but on the other hand, when you see what the location of this game is you'll probably agree with how much the developers could have put in before they started to run out of ideas, It happened it Luigi's mansion and unfortunately did here so that's where it looses a few points
Final recommendation
Buy, definitely buy, if somehow you're still unsure then rent but don't expect to finish it, this is at least a one week job IF you have enough spare time to devote to it. You may consider selling it back after completing it after the 12th time but there are a few un lockable's to keep you going when you think that it had just about ended.

Also, I forgot to add that I did install the VZ Access Manager software on the newer PC, but not before I tried to connect to the MiFi without doing so. Before I installed the VZ Access Manager software, I was able to see and connect to the device but also with "local only" connection.
2. Re: "Local Only" access with MiFi (no internet)larrytheG Mar 16, 2010 12:15 PM (in response to susieque)
Did you activate the device via VZACCESS while it was connected to your computer USB?
3. Re: "Local Only" access with MiFi (no internet)susieque Mar 16, 2010 2:44 PM (in response to larrytheG)
I had to call VZ Wireless support. Harliss walked me through activating the MiFi and he patiently waited while I connected successfully to the internet on both my laptops. Thank you, Harliss! (And it didn't take a long time either!) I am now up and running on my work laptop, connected to work through a VPN connection. Exactly what I wanted. This will be very convenient if I need to work from my elderly mother's home (she does not have internet) which I will have to do on Thursday because of some outpatient surgery she is having.

I DON'T understand social media!
I edit and produce Hartford News, and a few months ago I set up its Facebook page.
On November 19, of course, I posted an item about the decision to allow the building of 650 new houses in Hartford.
Loss of green space, the potential for a 30 per cent increase in the population of the village, and all in the face of overwhelming opposition to the plans.
The post has 'reached' 175 people.
On Saturday evening, vandals took the top few feet off the village's Christmas tree.
Granted, it was an unpleasant, unpopular and thoroughly unneccesary thing to do, but in the big scheme of things it probably won't have the same long term impact as the developers.
I posted an item about the Christmas tree on Sunday evening.
Six hours later it had 'reached' some 2,400 people, a number of whom also took the time to comment on it.
I can't seriously believe that the Christmas tree is so much more important; social media is a very strange thing...

I have developed <snip> website. Now i plan to change design into Bootstrap CSS. so i am not much knowledge about bootstrap design. so anyone could explain about bootstrap CSS and also explain advantage and disadvantage.
It's a "framework", meaning a bunch of CSS and HTML already written for you. If that's what floats your boat, then go for it, but IMHO frameworks are more trouble than they are worth.
But your question is too general. Do some reading here:
and then come back with some specific questions if there's something you don't understand.

BSU football overcomes poor special teams, rallies to defeat Minot State
MINOT, N.D. -- The Bemidji State football team defeated Minot State in the season opener Thursday night at Herb Parker Stadium.
Bemidji State won the annual Beaver Bash by overcoming poor special teams play and a 12-point deficit in the final 19 minutes of play.
In his first game as Bemidji State's starting quarterback, sophomore Derek Edholm hit George Kadlec on a three-yard, game-winning touchdown pass with 3:24 remaining to give the Beavers the 27-24 victory.
Bemidji State nearly gave the game away with special teams miscues through the first three quarters that included a blocked field goal, a missed extra point, a missed field goal, a punt return for a touchdown and a kickoff return for a touchdown.
Edholm was able to key the final two scoring drives for the Beavers and finished the day 32-for-44 passing with 305 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. It was the first 300-yard passing game for the Beavers since 2005 when Nathan Sannes reached the mark.
Kadlec caught a career-best 10 receptions for 107 yards and two touchdowns.
Sophomore running back Brandon Miles had two rushing touchdowns for Bemidji State. He led the team in on the ground with 16 rushes for 68 yards.
The win marked Bemidji State's sixth straight victory over Minot State in the series that marked its 11th year Thursday.
Bemidji State opens the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference schedule next Saturday in the home opener and Shrine Game against NSIC newcomer Minnesota State University, Mankato.
Thursday's game began with turnovers from both teams.
Bemidji State cruised into Minot State's red zone on the opening drive, but were stopped and forced into a 27-yard field goal attempt. The kick by all-conference and all-region kicker Paul Potemra was blocked.
It was the start of a rough game for Potemra, who was one of BSU's most consistent performers last season.
Minot State recovered the blocked kick and returned the ball to the BSU 20-yard line.
Bemidji State's defense held strong and forced MSU quarterback Jon Meier to fumble and linebacker Jordan Lardinois recovered.
Minot State scored first when Nick Banks ran off tackle on a 45-yard touchdown run to give MSU a 7-0 lead.
A strong defensive play by Bemidji State linebacker Jake Anderson set up BSU's first touchdown of the season.
The BSU junior intercepted a Meier pass, returned the ball to the Minot 3-yard line and running back Brandon Miles scored the touchdown on the next play.
But Potemra, who was 41-of-41 on extra points last season, kicked the ball off the right upright and the Beavers trailed 7-6.
On MSU's next drive, BSU cornerback Terrell Phelps set up the next BSU touchdown with another Meier interception.
BSU scored on the following possession on Edholm's 36-yard touchdown pass to Kadlec. The ensuing 2-point conversion attempt failed and BSU led 12-7.
MSU return man Johnny Lester put MSU back ahead with 1:30 left in the second quarter with his first spectacular special teams play.
Lester returned Potemra's punt by scrambling around the field and finding a seam on a 73-yard run to the end zone. The touchdown gave Minot State a 14-12 lead.
Bemidji State managed to get back into field goal range before the half ended, but Potemra's attempt from 35 yards out missed wide left and capped off a disastrous first half of special teams play for the Beavers.
Special teams problems continued immediately in the third quarter as Lester returned the opening kickoff of the second half 89 yards to give Minot State a 21-12 lead.
Lester returned three punts for 77 yards and two kickoffs for 103 yards in the game.
Nik Levnaich's 31-yard field goal at 4:08 of third quarter gave Minot State its largest lead of the game at 24-12.
Bemidji State began the comeback when Miles scored is second touchdown of the game on a 2-yard run with 17 seconds left in the third quarter to cut MSU's lead to 24-19.
The Beavers completed the comeback and took the lead for good when Kadlec pulled down Edholm's pass in the back corner of the end zone.
Thursday's victory kept Bemidji State undefeated at Herb Parker Stadium. The Beavers are now 4-0 all time in games played at Minot State.
E Running back Eurise Watson made his first carry of the 2008 season, marking his comeback from a season-ending dislocated kneecap injury he suffered in last year's homecoming game on Sept. 29 against Northern State.
E Wide receiver George Kadlec had his second career two-touchdown game. He had seven touchdown catches all of last season.

Poets Touching Trees and Conducting Tree Interviews
We're really into this new Tumblr, Poets Touching Trees (though Melissa Broder is on the money with this one). If your onyx don't work, bury it. Writes Ryan Doyle May in his tree interview:
Do you ever think about trees?
When I was twenty, I spent a week in an abandoned prison in Morges, Switzerland. It was being renovated by a group of musicians, one of which was the lover of the woman I was traveling with. I am referring here to a time before college, pre-writing, pre-New York, pre-everything. One of the musicians, named Bjorn took me on a hike somewhere. I don't remember if we were alone or not. I want to believe we were.
He led me into two giant willow trees. They were close enough together, that when we stood beneath them they encased us completely. Surrounded in green, the light breaking through the leaves reminded me of the stained glass windows I had seen in the gothic cathedrals I visited in France prior to my arrival. At the time I would not have been able to assign an architectural period to these cathedrals.
What is a vivid/significant memory you have involving a tree or trees?
I was told to look away, so I looked up. I looked up because my babysitter's daughter, a toddler, had fallen into the lake where we were fishing. Before I looked up, I saw my babysitter reaching for her daughter's head, at that point, it was completely underwater. For a moment I thought she was under glass. I looked up and saw the branches of a dead tree. It was summer. Why are branches bare in summer?
Are trees involved at all in your writing or worldview?
Throughout middle school and high school I collected stones and crystals, specifically black onyx. It was something between Goth and Grunge, and the color of the stone appealed to me. Black onyx is considered the devil's stone. It has many healing and defensive properties, but is also thought to control sexual impulse. At the time, I equated being gay to an impulse. This is something you believe growing up in a religious household, this is something you wake up in the morning and pray about, you pray about it over the bathwater before you bathe. You pray the water clean.
Because my onyx wasn't working, I buried it beneath an aspen tree in my backyard. I did this beneath the borrowed light of a full moon, left it there for a full week, in order to neutralize and cleanse it.
I buried the devil, and then I dug him up again.
Other poets touching trees so far include Sampson Starkweather, Steven Karl, Christine Kanownik ("I would say approximately 1 in every 7 thoughts I have is tree-related"), Guy Pettit, Paige Taggart, and Jono Tosch (pictured above). Keep 'em coming, folks.

When ibibo Group, a unit of South African media company Naspers Ltd, bought Pilani Soft Labs Pvt. Ltd, which runs the bus ticketing website redBus.in, on 21 June, it delivered a fresh fillip to e-commerce in India. The deal value wasn't disclosed, but people close to the development said it was around $135 million (around Rs.805 crore today). Promoters of redBus.in, who started the site with initial capital of Rs.5 lakh, went home happy.
RedBus.in co-founder and chief executive officer Phanindra Sama has overnight became the new poster boy of e-commerce start-ups.
The takeoff
Redbus.in was founded by Sama, Sudhakar Pasupunuri and Charan Padmaraju in 2006, when one of them found that all bus tickets had been sold out by Bangalore travel agents when he was hunting for a ticket to go home to spend his Diwali holidays with family. Sama and his friends, all from BITS Pilani, wasted no time in launching redBus.in. E-commerce initiatives such as e-Choupal by ITC Ltd and irctc.co.in by Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corp. Ltd had just begun gaining traction those days.
The ticketing website started with just two bus transporters offering the inventory of around a dozen seats daily. Later, it created a single platform where travel agents, bus operators and passengers could all transact.
The thrust
Many online travel agents started selling bus tickets online, posing competition to redBus.in. But it stayed focused, adding more channel partners and forming partnerships with state-run bus services. By June 2012, redBus.in had turned profitable. In addition to the Internet, redbus.in now sells tickets through phones and physical stores.
RedBus.in passed up on options such as selling other travel products like air tickets and hotel rooms, to selling advertisement space on the website or going international.
"We had to trade off many other things to be focused on selling bus tickets. We could afford to do this because of the large untapped market in India. We believed in the market and it proved us right," Sama says.
In February, redBus.in launched a mobile application for Android and Windows phones under the guidance of chief products officer Alok Goel, who joined the company in November from Google Inc., where he was heading search and mobile products.
"Even within the scope of bus ticketing in India, we further focused sharply on our b2c (business to consumers) channel, the redBus.in. Every bit of bandwidth we had, we put it on redBus.in," Sama says.
Redbus offered customers a wide choice between using credit cards, debit cards, Internet banking, cash-on-delivery, cash cards and mobile phone payments for buying tickets.
Happy landing
By the time redBus.in was sold to ibibo last month, it was handling one million passengers every month. This figure could reach 10 million in a few years, given the opportunity to scale across more cities and routes.
RedBus.in has already grown to be the country's largest bus ticketing service, selling tickets worth more than Rs.600 crore on over 10,000 bus routes in fiscal 2012. Its revenue that year was Rs.350 crore.
The $135 million acquisition by ibibo not only cheered the redBus.in founders, but it has also imparted fresh momentum to India's start-up ecosystem.

One thing I really respect Samsung for is that

One makes a concept, then in the next few months, it's on production.
Of course, it can be suck ass Omnia or whatever-you-think, but in matter of the frontier spirit, I salute samsung.

Quintessential Wairarapa Weekend Approaching

Quintessential Wairarapa Weekend Approaching
Celebrating the start of the grape harvest, watching hot air balloons drift through the sky and walking amongst Martinborough's vineyards will be top of mind for visitors to the Wairarapa this weekend.
Destination Wairarapa general manager David Hancock says
the region is preparing for an influx of visitors this
weekend (March 14 – 16) with four key events on. These
include Saturday's Wairarapa Wines Harvest Festival,
Sunday's annual Martinborough Round the Vines fun run and
walk, the Tora Tora Tora Coastal Music festival and the
three-day Wairarapa Balloon Fiesta, the latter which lifts
off on Thursday.
Mr Hancock says with autumn about to set in, it was the perfect opportunity for people to enjoy another brilliant weekend outdoors in the Wairarapa.
"Fantastic wine, delicious regional food and a beautiful setting await people attending this weekend's almost sold out Harvest Festival while the Balloon Fiesta will be just spectacular," says Mr Hancock. "This diverse range of events will showcase the best of the Wairarapa's wine, food, coastline and outdoors."
The weekend's activities begin early on Thursday with the three-day Wairarapa Balloon Fiesta that has attracted more than 20 balloons and their pilots from all over New Zealand. The annual event will also feature two special shaped balloons, a seven-storied high flying house and a 54-metre tall Space Shuttle replica, both making their first ever appearance at a New Zealand balloon fiesta. The Fiesta programme feature a series of competitions and displays and weather permitting, balloons will launch each day at dawn when the breeze is gentle and drift over the region's characterful towns, farms and vineyards.
The programme also includes Saturday night's family focused Trust House Night Glow at the Solway Showgrounds in Masterton where tethered balloons light up the night sky in a dazzling display set to music. It will conclude on Sunday morning with the popular 'Splash 'n Dash' at Masterton's Henley Lake.
As ballooning is dependent on the right weather conditions, decisions about each flight will be made each morning with updates on the Wairarapa Balloon Fiesta's facebook page and website www.nzballoons.co.nz.
For those wanting to sample the region's wines and fresh food in a relaxed and unpretentious riverside setting in the popular Gladstone wine growing area, then Saturday's Wairarapa Wines Harvest Festival is the place to be. The almost sold out event, celebrates the beginning of the grape harvest and will feature 16 local wineries, 10 high profile restaurants and local food producers. Visitors to the Festival will have the opportunity to sample wines from well known and smaller boutique wineries as well as meet the wine makers from the vineyards involved, giving them an insight into the wide variety and styles of wine available in the region.
Music lovers are also catered for at Tora Tora Tora 2014, a music festival that brings Wellington's awesome music scene to the beautiful Wairarapa coastline. This private family event has grown from a few musicians and friends camping out under the stars to an annual event showcasing up and coming as well as long standing members of the Wellington music scene.
The weekend's events conclude on Sunday with the annual Martinborough Round the Vines fun run and walk. The 10km and 21km courses start and finish in Martinborough's picturesque village square, crossing normally inaccessible vineyards with stunning views of the famous Martinborough Terrace edge and surrounding country side.

Not sure if this is a crisp or a cobbler, so I have stated both ;-) This is made with canned peaches which makes this an easy desssert, serve warm with vanilla ice cream *so* good! The topping is sweet but you can reduce one or both sugars slightly if desired ;-)

A Model of Growth with Intertemporal Knowledge Externalities, Augmented with Contemporaneous Knowledge Externalities
The present model is essentially Romer's (1990) model of endogenous growth with intertemporal knowledge externalities, augmented with contemporaneous knowledge externalities to give a richer explanation of the growth process. Both types of knowledge spillovers seem essential to capturing the features of knowledge in a model of growth. Introducing synchronic complementarities and knowledge externalities across inventive firms immediately creates the possibility of multiple equilibria and threshold effects in the present model. Another advantage of this theoretical formulation is that it allows for an analysis of the effects on steady-state growth of a variety of technology policies relying on changing knowledge complementarities parameters.

Fudgy Chocolate-Walnut Cookies
How to Make It
Preheat the oven to 350°. Position 2 racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
Spread the walnut halves on a large rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven for about 9 minutes, until they are golden and fragrant. Let cool slightly, then transfer the walnut halves to a work surface and finely chop them.
In a large bowl, whisk the confectioners' sugar with the cocoa powder and salt. Whisk in the chopped walnuts. Add the egg whites and vanilla extract and beat just until the batter is moistened (be careful not to overbeat or it will stiffen). Spoon the batter onto the baking sheets in 12 evenly spaced mounds.
Bake the cookies for about 20 minutes, until the tops of the cookies are glossy and lightly cracked and feel firm to the touch; shift the pans from front to back and top to bottom halfway through.
Slide the parchment paper (with the cookies) onto 2 wire racks to cool completely before serving.

Google may be tackling a couple of the longstanding annoyances of smartphones in Android M.
According to Android Police, Google wants to make major headway with better battery life and RAM usage. All signs point to a developer preview of Android M being announced at Google I/O and made available shortly after (as was the case with Lollipop last year), so we could find out more about this soon. While the Android M preview will be a rough build, we should get an idea of the key features and other optimizations that Google is working on.
There aren't a ton of details about the rumor, only that Google may be turning an eye toward Google Play Services, looking for methods to optimize this key app that powers most of the APIs and tools behind Android and third-party apps. Location checkins and other background features that eat up RAM are also said to be in Google's sights.
Why this matters: Better battery life is something that seems to elude every smartphone release, with the only marginal improvements coming from larger batteries. Google took a shot at this in the past with Project Volta, but it didn't turn out to have as significant an impact as we hoped. If Android M can show improvement in this area, and find ways to scale back RAM usage, that would certainly be welcome.
This story, "Report: Google targeting battery life and RAM usage in Android M" was originally published by Greenbot.

The myth of the green Gabba monster grows fangs before each Brisbane Test, and the build-up to this series-opener against South Africa has been no different.
The myth was all the more seductive this year with the best fast-bowling attack in the world, and a pack of exciting, confident Australian quicks hell-bent on matching them.
In the end, Michael Clarke resisted the urge to select four fast men and stuck with the spin of Nathan Lyon ahead of the left-arm pace variety of Mitchell Starc. The Proteas, though, broke with tradition and added a fourth seamer, Rory Kleinveldt, to the fancied trio of Dale Steyn, Vernon Philander and Morne Morkel, leaving leg-spinner Imran Tahir on the sidelines. By the time the first session had elapsed, with Hashim Amla looking completely unperturbed, it was clear this Gabba Test pitch was not the hissing, spitting green monster it was cracked up to be.

It's that time of year, Philadelphia. Candy canes, snow and presents should have you thinking of one thing: tech events.
Well, maybe that's just the staff of Technically Philly. However, despite our love for tech, our calendar is feeling the effects of the holiday season with only two events to speak of.
First, The Philadelphia User Group reps the west side and chats maps in the 'burbs and Hive 76 hopes you attend its open house before settling in for the holidays.
Details for both after the jump along with a special South Philly Christmas poem.
Monday, December 21: Head on out to Malvern to hear speaker Brian Stempin, research assistant at Temple University, talk GIS with the PLUG West crowd. According to his LinkedIn profile, Stempin has open source chops as well. Someone call Avencia. 7:00 p.m. Malvern. INFO. [view more events]
Wednesday, December 23: Hacker space Hive 76 tries to squeeze in an event right before the holiday with its weekly open house. We recommend you attend, at the very least, to get some sweet last minute gift ideas as written about in the Philadelphia City Paper by our very own Brian James Kirk. 8:00 p.m. Callowhill. INFO. [view more events]
Because we were unable to give your promised slate of three highlighted events, please accept our humble apologies with this South Philly version of a "Night Before Christmas."

Now bear with me here........
so the D-backs wanted Vaz, FA Pitcher, and Gordon(i think they want him to be their closer).
-so here is a elaborate deal I came up with
-First the Yankees sign Jaret Wright
-Braves sign Millwood, Dye, Burnitz, Drew
-4 team deal-
-D'Backs Get-
~Mike Hampton (Braves pay 2mil, Yanks pay 5, D'Backs pay 1)
~Jaret Wright (Yanks sign and trade and pay all of his salary)
~Ugueth Urbina (from DET)
-Yankees Get-
~Randy Johnson
~Andrew Jones
-Braves Get-
~Javier Vazaquez (yanks pay 50% of his contract)
-Tigers Get-
~Chris Reitsma
~Pete Orr (Braves 2B prospect)
~Dioner Navarro (From NY)
-The D'Backs would get the 2 starters like they wanted and the closer plus would only being paying 1 mil/year.
-Yankees would do this for Randy Johnson and Andrew Jones.
-Braves would do this to get a starter and clear some back-loaded salary. Plus after this I would trade Giles to OAK for Hudson, Mulder, or Zito. I probably would also try to trade Chipper to maybe boston for the OF prospect murphy to free up salary and third base for Marte.
-Detroit would get two future starters and a set-up man for their "new" closer.
so after all of my madness...........
1.Furcal SS
2.Drew CF
3.Estrada C (not sure how else to arrange it)
4.Burnitz RF (I like him because he is a true clean-up hitter and he bridges the gap to Francoeur well)
5.Dye LF
6.Laroche 1B
7.Marte 3B
8.Green 2B
1.A's ace
set-up:Cruz (to replace Reitsma)
-you would have too tinker with the excacts(line-up, rotation), but I think it would work for all parties and the Braves would have a hell of a pitching staff.

Head Boy, Richard Warwick, delivered his speech at 2016's Prize Day as he prepared to leave the School. Richard now goes onto study an artchitectural degree at Leeds University.
It is almost exactly three years since I first set foot in Newcastle School for Boys. Being perfectly honest I was quite nervous about the whole situation. I had just spent eight years at another school, and had lost my enjoyment of learning and felt that I could have done better academically. Three years on and things could not be more different – thanks to NSB and its amazing staff team, I am already standing with an exceptional A Level result under my belt with hopefully a few more to follow. I have enjoyed representing the school where I can and I have taken tremendous pleasure out of being part of the sports teams in particular. I have relationships with staff which are positive, meaningful, mutually respectful which I wouldn't have imagined from teachers. I even have to own up to enjoying singing and performing with Newlands House, featuring the legendary Mr Drax at the House competitions which we won.
I can honestly say I have learnt so much at NSB, and not necessarily just in the classroom. I have learnt about kindness, compassion, inclusiveness and I have been given a sense of responsibility and purpose. I have learnt that whilst passing exams is important, there is so much more needed to become a rounded human being and to put something back into your community. NSB, itself, is an inclusive community and one which welcomes everyone. If you had asked anyone who knew me when I joined the NSB community if I would be Head Boy and stand up in front of everyone here to make a speech, they would not have believed it would be possible – to tell you the truth I wouldn't have believed it would be possible.
By entrusting individuals with responsibility and encouraging them to stretch themselves and get involved in things that might seem challenging or even uncomfortable, NSB has a way of bringing out the best in its pupils. There are academic opportunities which have led to numerous boys accessing universities such as Durham and Oxford, the development of musical talent which has led to us all being able to enjoy many performances from fellow students and the school creates a strong sense of belonging. When you are outside of school – whether representing the school in a sporting fixture or "socialising", you can spot an NSB pupil straight away – a strong sense of togetherness, fair play and belonging – fun and lively, but knowing where the boundaries are.
It has been a privilege to serve the school as Head Boy especially in this prestigious year which celebrates the tenth anniversary of the School, and what a celebration it was, culminating in a fantastic ball which brought together the entire school community with current boys, staff, parents and old boys all there. I would like to thank Mr Tickner, the Senior Leadership Team and the Governors for putting their faith in me for this role. I would also like to thank all of my teachers for all of the help and guidance they have given me. I have personally benefited from subjects being tailored to my own individual needs. I know of no other school who would care so personally for me, even with my stroppiness!
I would particularly like to thank Stuart Lancaster for agreeing to be our guest today and undoubtedly the boys will draw comparisons with the direct style of coaching he employs with the way we have been coached in all sports by our outstanding sports department.
NSB is not just about subject knowledge, it's a family where many people care about each other. On a more personal note I would like to thank every teacher who has supported me by giving their time, care and commitment to help with the pressures of this last year, I would also like to thank all of my classmates for the fun and wise words of encouragement my time here.
And finally, I would like to thank the NSB Community for inviting me in and making me feel so welcome and I'd like to wish Cam Baker, better known as Baz, all the best for next year, I'm sure he'll do a great job!

Shouldn't this technique be classified as bunshinjutsu?--126.96.36.199 (talk) 19:20, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
- Indirectly maybe. Creating Zetsu copies does not seem to be its purpose. ~SnapperTo 23:17, March 12, 2010 (UTC)
how does he plant the spores on people? do they travel through the air or are they give through physical contact?18.104.22.168 (talk) 23:07, May 4, 2012 (UTC)
- While it wasn't said, I'd say they're airborne. Zetsu was never shown touching the Kage and their escorts in their summit, but they still got the spores. Only the Raikage touched him when he killed the clone. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 01:11, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
Bringing this back, it seems more likely this also a clone technique if the spores are fully grown, as shown with the spores that were on Sasuke. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 21:43, April 10, 2013 (UTC)

I know that it doesn't fit to BZ's techniques anymore, but when it was used for the first time, it was clearly BZ who claimed that he can't believe nobody noticed his Spore Technique.

Altern ist Leben - Ist es auch finanzierbar?
The ageing of the European population gave rise to heated discussions. Most participants recommended severe reductions of public pensions, a shift towards a funded system and increased savings of the current generation to reduce the burden of the next one. The paper elaborates five counterarguments: (1) The total burden will not increase much, as the additional pensioners are partly compensated by a reduced number of unemployed. (2) Even with 1 percent growth per capita GDP will be some 60 percent higher in 2050, which should suffice to increase the living standard of the old and the young. (3) The real burden cannot be shifted, and a shift of the financial burden can prove counterproductive. (4) The pay-as-you-go system should not be abandoned, as it covers wider and more severe risks than a funded one. (5) Surveys show clearly that the population appreciates a public pension scheme and prefers higher contributions to reduced pensions.

Also, I see many emerging market entrepreneurs practicing jugaad not for fun or as a hobby (as with DIY), but rather as a matter of life-of-death in extreme conditions: hence, I believe that by infusing the DIY movement with that kind of extreme frugality and resilience that characterise jugaad we could conjure up amazing grassroots solutions in America that can address major socio-economic issues we face today in the US in a bottom-up fashion. What challenges would you have to reckon with when you spread your word about this innovation in the West?
Radjou:I see the biggest challenge is convincing senior executives in large Western corporations to empower their employees so they can improvize solutions as they see fit -- rather than expecting their superiors to tell them what to do. Ultimately jugaad is about catalyzing "bottom up" innovation by unleashing and harnessing the ingenuity of all employees. The good news is that enlightened leaders in forward-thinking organizations across sectors in the West -- such as 3M, Unilever, Siemens, Renault-Nissan, Mayo Clinic, and FEMA -- are empowering their employees to think and act as nimble jugaad innovators. My hope is that in the coming years more Western organisations will emulate them and follow their lead in adopting the frugal, flexible, and inclusive principles of jugaad.

Two recent Louisiana Supreme Court decisions have sent a clear message to the lower courts (in particular to the Third Circuit Court of Appeal): "Adjudicate, dont legislate."
In the first of those decisions, Oliver v. Magnolia Clinic, the majority told the lower courts that "trial courts and courts of appeal are bound to follow the last expression of law of the Louisiana Supreme Court." In this case, the lower courts had not. The opinion went on to revisit its reasoning in a prior case to remind the courts of their obligation to follow the latest expression of law regarding the constitutionality of the states $500,000 cap on medical malpractice claims.
The court was careful to acknowledge both the primacy of the legislation and the limits of its own role. "Our job," the court wrote, "as a court tasked with reviewing laws, is to ensure statutes are free of constitutional infirmities. Once satisfied that legislation does not infringe upon constitutional rights, any other perceived infirmity is to be addressed by the legislature."
In the second opinion, Arabie v. Citgo Petroleum Corporation, the Supreme Court again took the district court and Third Circuit Court of Appeal to task for their far-reaching decisions which would have given punitive damages (in addition to their compensatory damages) to 14 plaintiffs. These decisions were rendered, even though the Louisiana Legislature had specifically repealed a punitive damage provision in 1996.
The plaintiffs had asserted that, because CITGOs corporate management had been headquarted in Tulsa-and then moved to Houston-and had made corporate decisions from those states, Oklahoma and Texas laws which allowed for punitive damages should trump Louisianas absent law.
However, the court said: "As we have previously discussed, the legislature has seen fit to authorize punitive damages only in certain specific instances. The fact that punitive damages are only authorized in particular situations shows that the State has a general policy against punitive damages." And the opinion went on to dispel the notion that punitive damages should be awarded because of an out-of-state law under a conflict of law theory.
What a refreshing idea: leaving "lawmaking" to the "lawmakers." Unfortunately, until relatively recently it was a novel idea in many of our appellate courts-including the state Supreme Court-that legislating from the bench wasnt the prerogative of the judiciary. Over the last several decades, the Supreme Court has handed down many decisions creating law from judicial fiat or changing the intent of legislative acts. The current Supreme Court, to its credit, is reversing that trend.
These two decisions, though quite dissimilar, are the Supreme Courts messages back to the lower courts that the job of the states judges is to interpret the law as written and intended by the Legislature, not to make new law.
If the lower courts pay attention to the Supreme Court whose rulings they are obligated to follow, it could be an indication that Louisiana is on its way to an improved judicial climate where businesses and individuals can operate with predictability based on the laws written by the Legislature.

Prediction: NBA / Atlanta Hawks VS Houston Rockets
NBA -- Match Time:11/3/2012 07:30 Saturday
Atlanta Hawks VS Houston Rockets Head to Head | Statistics| Odds
The Rockets come into this game after an embarrassing loss to the weak Memphis Grizzlies 109-97. The high scorers for the Rockets in that game were Luis Scola and Rafer Alston, who both went for 16 points. Even in the loss the Rockets shot the rock well going 35/72 from the floor for a FG% of 48.6%. On defense the Rockets took the night off allowing the Grizzlies to shoot 39/76 from the floor for a FG% of 51.3%.
The Hawks come into this game after losing to the Dallas Mavericks 100-98 on Friday night. The high scorer for the Hawks in that game was Joe Johnson going for 32 points on 12/22 shooting. For the game the Hawks shot 34/75 from the floor for a FG% of 45.3%. On defense the Hawks allowed the Mavericks to shoot 40/84 from the floor for a FG% of 47.6%.
This season the Hawks rank 14th in the league in scoring (98.6) and the Rockets rank 21st (96.6 ppg). The Hawks are one of the better 3 point shooting teams in the league with a 3-pt FG% of 40%. On defense the Rockets are legit, ranking 3rd in the NBA (92.3 ppg), while the Hawks rank 13th (97.1 ppg). The Rockets are better on the glass having a rebounding differential of +1.5 rpg, while the Hawks are at -.5.
This season the Rockets are 10-10 ATS and the Hawks are 10-9. In terms of Over/Under games the Rockets are 13-9 and the Hawks are 9-12-1.
On the injury front C Al Horford C and PG Acie Law are day-to-day for the Hawks and SF Ron Artest and SF Shane Battier are day-to-day and Tracy McGrady and Brent Barry are Out for the Rockets.
Same old song and dance for the Rockets, as injuries are killing them. In their last game they were without Ron Artest and Tracy McGrady and only dressed 10 players. Dude, if Artest, McGrady, and Yao Ming could stay on the court they would be a legit contender, but that has not happened this year or for the past few for Ming and McGrady. Ming and McGrady are about as durable as a Yugo on a road trip.
The Hawks were dominated by the Rockets last year going 0-2 and in those games shot a FG% of only 35.5%, which was their lowest percentage against any team in 2007-08.
For the Rockets to win this game short-handed they will have to play good perimeter defense on the Hawks, as Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, and Mike Bibby can really light it up from the outside.
Since McGrady, and maybe Artest, is out Yao Ming will have to pick up the scoring slack and Hawks C Al Horford will have to step up and play some D, but he is banged up having a sprained ankle.
The PG match up is key with Mike Bibby (16.2 ppg) going up against Rafer Alston (11.8 ppg). For the Hawks to win Bibby will have to stop Alston from scoring. If he can do that the Rockets will have limited scoring options.
If Artest can play tonight, which he should, his toughness will give the Rockets a big advantage, since they cannot outscore teams with leading scorer McGrady still out with a bum knee.
The Rockets have been in 1st place in the Southwest Division for most of the year, but now are tied for 1st with the New Orleans Hornets. The Rockets need to, at least, keep up with the Hornets until they are healthy, even though the healthy Rockets is a sort of oxymoron.
Pick: I like Atlanta to get one on the road here.

Life In Film x Yimmy Yayo for Burberry
We speak with the UK band about continental breakfasts, Stevie Nicks, and listening to one album for the rest of eternity.
We mentioned a little while back that UK band Life In Film had been selected by Burberry Chief Creative Officer, Christopher Bailey, to front the brand's SS12 Aviators campaign. The four boys — singer Sam, guitarist Ed, bassist Dominic and drummer Mickey — recorded a music video especially for the campaign, which you can see below. The bands from the eyewear campaign have been playing at special Burberry events around the world (we were there to see Marika Hackman in NYC), and last week Life In Film were flown to Australia to play at the Burberry store in Sydney. I met with them at a very noisy CBD cafe before Yimmy Yayo took some pictures.
Ariane Halls: What's been the best thing about being a part of the Burberry Aviator campaign?
Mickey: This trip, definitely, I'd say. Coming over here and like…seeing Sydney… we've never seen it before. It's been really nice.
Have you all been overseas much before?
Ed: Not really. Not this far…
Mickey: Furthest I've ever been.
Dominic: Yeah, furthest we've been. Been in Europe, but…
Apparently 80% of English people never go within 20 miles of where they were born. Or something.
Ed: Really? [Laughs] I don't believe that for a second. I think that's an Australian myth!
So, are you all wearing your Aviators?
Dominic: Yes, so we aren't squinting. That's a good thing about the glasses.
Sam: So we can come to Australia without squinting.
[A waitress comes to collect everyone's drink orders.]
Mickey: Was that your next question — "What do you guys like to drink?" [Laughs]
Yeah, what do you guys like to drink? Tea?
Ed: [Laughs] "What's your favorite type of juice?"
What is your favorite type of juice?
Ed: Good question, come back to me.
Mickey: Can I answer that? Elderflower.
Sam: I like Tropicana Ruby Breakfast. It's got grapefruit and then blood orange… It's, like, sweet and sharp … It goes well with a continental breakfast.
Mickey: And if your next question is "Does Sam like a continental breakfast?" the answer is a definite "Yes!"
Would agree that a continental breakfast isn't real breakfast?
Dominic: No, it's everything; everything.
[Rest of band] No, no, no.
Mickey: It's just like cereal, cheese, pastries…
Ed: Cheese, ham…
Dominic: I thought we had a continental today?
Sam: No, we had a full breakfast!
You know you've made it when you get the full breakfast.
Dominic: We had the $30 special.
Sam: We had the full breakfast, and then they went back, and went to the continental stand.
Dominic: But they had everything!
Sam: They had the salmon from that, the ham…
So, we've established that the full breakfast is better. OK, if you could each only listen to one album for the rest of your life what would it be?
Dominic: Hatful of Hollow by The Smiths.
Sam: Could we listen to each other's?
Ed: No.
Sam: Uh, that's a good one, I don't know.
Ed: Probably David Bowie… Ziggy Stardust.
Sam: I'd say Van Morrison.
Mickey: Lust For Life, Iggy Pop.
If you could be in any band, which band would it be?
Dominic: This one.
A band that's not this one!
Sam: The Walkmen.
Mickey: Do they have to be dead, or alive?
First we can do an alive one.
Mickey: I'll get the piss taken out of me, but probably Belle and Sebastian. I'd like that.
Who would be the girl?
Mickey: I'd be the girl… Yeah, I'd be the girl.
Dominic: I'd be in Fleetwood Mac.
Sam: They gotta be alive! They have to still be going.
No, it's OK… Are you Lindsey Buckingham?
Dominic: No, I'd be the guy who goes out with Stevie Nicks — but at the time, not now.
Mickey: I'd probably still say yes to Stevie.
Sam: If it was 'dead', I'd say the Ramones, probably. I just think it would be sick to play 15 of the same songs in a row. [Laughs] We're not far off of that.
Ed: [Laughs] We're working on it!
How have your wardrobes changed since you started working with Burberry?
Dominic: They fit better.
Sam: I've had to extend mine.
Dominic: I've had to throw loads of clothes away.
If you guys weren't in the band, what do you think you would be doing?
Mickey: Crying [laughs].
Ed: I'd probably be working at my Dad's — he's an architect; I'd probably be an architect.
Sam: Probably working at some [unintelligible] shop or something…
A shampoo shop?
Sam: A chapeau shop, is it? It's from Spinal Tap. Do you know what it is?
Oh yes, it's a hat shop.
Sam: Is it? [Laughs] Wow. [Quotes from movie] "Do you like this one, Sir?" No, I'd probably be a movie star, or something [everyone laughs].
Aim high. Five years ago did you think that you would be here?
Dominic: Yeah.
Dominic: Not here. Here, here.
Mickey: I kind of thought that we would be here three years ago [laughs], but if it's taken this long, so be it.
Sam: Yeah, on the plane over here I was thinking, "This is mad!" It was pretty out of the blue when we were told that we were going to Sydney, and then a few weeks later we were on the plane. It's pretty surreal.
What are you guys up to for the rest of the year? What's next?
Dominic: We are going to start releasing some material, like an EP and singles… and tour.
Sam: The EP is coming out in June. It's going to be called Needles and Pins and it's going to have five tracks on it. It's going to have 'Carla' on it, which is the tune we did for Burberry. So, we're excited for when that comes out. It should give a bit more of the story of what we are all about, I guess.

MORE single mothers joined the workforce while others increased their work hours following Howard-era welfare reforms, according to preliminary findings from the National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling at the University of Canberra.
The researchers set out to measure the impact of three major reforms designed to boost the supply of labour of women with children. They concluded a 5 per cent increase in the employment rate of single mothers was largely attributed to changes which tightened eligibility criteria for parenting payments in 2006.
Under the changes, new parenting payment recipients were required to participate in approved activities once their youngest child turned eight.
The lead researcher, Xiaodong Gong, said changes had effectively ''forced'' some of the women with older children into the workforce because they would otherwise lose their benefits.
The researchers found other changes were responsible for employed single mothers increasing their working hours by an average of almost six hours a week.
In 2004, the government lowered the rate at which family benefits were withdrawn as income rose in order to allow parents to keep more of their increased earnings.
But Dr Gong said generally only women who changed jobs were able to take on more hours. He said the fact that most women had not been able to work longer hours without switching jobs pointed to ''rigidity'' in the labour market.
The researchers also said that the childcare tax rebate, which came into effect five years ago in 2006, appeared to have encouraged higher-educated and higher-earning women to take on more hours by making childcare more affordable. The rebate allowed families to claim 30 per cent of their out-of-pocket childcare costs through the tax system.

SAN DIEGO - Padres left fielder Milton Bradley tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee when he was spun to the ground by his manager Sunday during a blowup with an umpire and will miss the rest of the season.
Bradley, who helped spark the wild-card leading Padres during the season's second half, was ejected by Mike Winters. He then hurt his knee during a bizarre scene when manager Bud Black spun him to the ground to keep him from going after the first base umpire in the eighth inning of Sunday's 7-3 loss to Colorado.
The Padres were incredulous, saying Winters baited Bradley, leading to the confrontation.
Bradley, whose volatile temper has overshadowed his career, called it "the most unprofessional and most ridiculous thing I've ever seen."
"It's terrible. And now, because of him, my knee's hurt," Bradley said Sunday. "If this costs me my season because of that, he needs to be reprimanded. I'm taking some action."
As Bradley walked to the plate in the eighth, umpire Brian Runge asked the player if he had flipped his bat in the ump's direction after taking a called third strike to end the fifth.
"I said, 'Are you kidding me? That's ridiculous,'" Bradley said. "He said, 'Well, it was reported to me by the other umpires that you threw your bat at me.' And I said, 'That's completely ridiculous. I've done a lot of things. I'm trying to turn it around. I would never harm anybody.'"
Bradley singled, asked Winters if he told Runge he threw his bat. "He goes, 'Yeah, you did.' I go, 'Are you kidding me? That's completely ridiculous. If I strike out and the inning's over, why are you looking at me? Everything's always about me.'"
Then, a fan heckled Winters.
"I pointed to the guy in the crowd, affirming it," Bradley said.
Bradley said Winters responded with a string of expletives.
"That's when I went at him, and he kicked me out," Bradley said.
First base coach Bobby Meacham began to restrain Bradley, and Black came running out. Bradley got away from Meacham, but Black grabbed him by the jersey.
Bradley tried to get free and, after a few seconds, Black spun Bradley around and the player collapsed. Bradley immediately grabbed his right knee and eventually had to be helped off the field.
"I was trying to pull Milton away from the argument," said Black.
Meacham defended Bradley, and also said Winters used profanities.
"In 26 years of baseball, I can honestly say that's the most disconcerting conversation I have ever heard from an umpire to a player," Meacham said. "It was almost like he wanted to agitate the whole thing. He wanted to get Milton boiling for some reason. ... I was just appalled" Meacham said.

Police arrest suspect in threat, lockdown at Mount Si High School
A lockdown of all Snoqualmie and North Bend Schools ended just before 10 a.m. Thursday, March 6, when police apprehended a man who'd threatened to kill people at "Snoqualmie High School."
No one was hurt in the incident, which began at 6:43 a.m. when the subject called 911 to issue his threats.
"Somebody did call in 911 threatening to do harm," at Mount Si High School, which is the district's only traditional high school, said Snoqualmie Police Captain Nick Almquist in a phone call after the man's capture, "and to basically kill law enforcement if he sees them."
School officials were notified of the threat, and as a precaution, they initiated a modified lockdown of most North Bend and Snoqualmie school buildings. King County dispatch kept the subject on the phone for most of the incident, Almquist said, and were able to determine his location in a North Bend home.
While Sheriff's deputies gathered a tactical team and negotiators in preparation of confronting the man, Snoqualmie Police brought in additional officers to establish a presence at North Bend, Opstad, and Snoqualmie Elementary Schools, Twin Falls Middle School, Two Rivers and the Mount Si Freshman Campus. Police established a command center at Mount Si High School, working with school administrators to coordinate communications.
The modified lockdown secured all entrances to the buildings, but allowed the school day to proceed as it normally would.
"At this time, it's just a precaution," said school district spokeswoman Carolyn Malcolm, during the lockdown.
Malcolm was notified at 9:50 a.m. that the man who'd made the threats was taken into custody peaceably.
"He basically surrendered," said Almquist. He couldn't say whether the man had any weapons, or comment further on the case, since King County has jurisdiction.
All school lockdowns were called off by 10 a.m.
