Ralf: Actually, eventually the landings are going to be 1/2 M. So it would have to be very accuarate. I'm not sure that kind of accuracy is available. I could be wrong though.
Bernd: I have been thinking about aerotow. However, with everything else going on that's as far as I've gotten, just thinking. I would have to do a bit more research before I could make a decision.
Copper done
It took a bit of doing but I finished my Copper at the ESL contest.
Since there were 15 rounds (one 8, one 7 and the rest 10 min) over two days, getting the 5 min tasks and the landings went quickly. Chuck Pinnell (#21) also got started on his Copper. It did take me three days from the start (on Friday the 30 min flights). Today I got one 15 min before the contest, and one and landing during the 1/2 hour lunch break (with some cooperation from the CD).
Form will be in the mail tomorrow, so now on to Bronze. Might take me a week or so, since witnesses will likely be out on the weekends this time.
Doing it all slope will be fun.
I did notice that the TD/to slope was sort of backwards, but unless those who have done the Bronze slope tasks agree, I guess it can't be changed. Slope is usually double the TD task. If at all possible, I would not give out any Silver sheets until that is fixed. I didn't see anyone doing silver yet.
Also, I am a bit confuse as to what the Basic and A1 means
Does it mean you land at exactly 10 min anywhere on the field?
3 days to do Copper? And now a week to do Bronze?
I'm NOT going to send in my sheet,now. or anytime in the future as the more I think about it,the more I have a mouth full of vinigar.
Now that this program is given the thumb's up by the LSF Exec ,I can see that it is about to be flooded by upper LSF member's with their high tech and high $$ ship's. it.
Don't get me wrong,it's a great program(Steve,youve done a hell of a job!!)and I WILL continue,just as a silent(non-existent)member.
Welcometo the LSF part 2 everyone
So one guy who happens to be a LSF V makes short work of Copper and some people are sticking there heads in the sand? Oh, Steve has not seen the form and validated it, yet.
I meet Tom at the NATs this year, not only is he a nice guy but a pretty darn good pilot ( did better than I did in 2M and Unlimited, manage to get his 2 hour in to boot!) as well but his skills are not chasing me off!!! His skills are a challange to me to do better!
Good job Tom! So how much free time do you have to spend soaring? Can I borrow some?
Good Luck on Bronze and the one week prediction, he, he....
V.P. Sportsman Soaring Program
One issue with altimeters - the ones I have can easily be faked. The data can be saved and edited to show anything you want. The SkyTraceGPS has a time stamp on every second and a hash code that is impossible to fake. When the data is read it will detect any tampering.
[QUOTE=Thermaler]So one guy who happens to be a LSF V makes short work of Copper and some people are sticking there heads in the sand? .....
Thanks Joe...
By the way. It took me a couple years to get to LSF level IV and nearly 8 months to get to Gold Canadian (I blew one XC task 4 years ago and still haven't finished Diamond). It took me 5 years to get from IV to V. And I did 90% of it with an old 100" Gemini RES plane. I had been flying only a year or so when I started doing LSF. I'd be doing the same thing even if I didn't have a nice molded plane. (My 8 hr was with a Bubble Dancer)
I've now been flying 12 years (and am over 60) so you young guys have a real advantage. I'm sure there are some 10 or so year old kids like Lee and Josh Glabb, Jr that could give some a run for their money. It didn't bother me that there were over 120 level V's when I started. Any of whom could have done the same thing I did -- some of whom did it twice.
I think even Copper helps hone ones skills. I enjoy the challenge. I'm just not one of those people who goes out with a high-start and flies for a few minutes and is done for the day. Challenges like this, I guess, are just not for everybody. Though the only way I know to get better at anything is to do it , do it , do it and keep doing it. I have yet to get a first place expert at an ESL contest. That requires being within a few points off perfect, and I doubt I will ever get there. I really admire those that have done it time and time again. I will still enjoy flying with them, even if I'm in last place.
As I recall, LSF LI was no big deal to complete either and I was new to soaring. LII was no biggie either except the contest stuff which I haven't been able to do. (personal reasons) IMHO the tasks through LIV are not that big of a deal. It's the contests that make up the LSF program's difficulty. Now before anyone starts jumpin' my butt because I dared to say that, take a look at the task portion of LIV. 1 1hr TD flight, a 4 hr slope flight and a 2 k G&R. It's really not that bad until you get to the contest requirements.
The problem with the SSP is that it wasn't started as a program. Then it was suggested that it become a program. Now the original idea was to make up 2 or 3 levels and as a group try them, rate them and make changes as the group saw fit until the program developed completely. Then release the final version of the program. Most of the people joining now seem to think this is a completed program and all they have to do is join and give it a go. In reality it's a program in developement and already we have seen the need for changes to Copper level. The slope portion needs to be harder. Now that so many are participating it's harder still to get an answer on what everyone would like to see happen. Some are ready to pull out if we make changes to a level they've started, some still understand what we're trying to do and want to make the changes. Some want to know what all of the other levels consist of. Well to be honest, there are no other levels beyond Copper any more. I've had all of the forms pulled from the site and they will stay that way for a short time. When they do come back they will be all "new & improved". There are 3 other people besides myself that have started on Bronze and we all agreed that we need to fix the program before we move on any further. If it means tougher tasks and more of them so be it. It's just that much more of a challenge and that much more fun we get to have. It means no more trying to show people sample forms and having them print them out before a level is complete and taking them as gospel. The whole point of the SSP was to take a bunch of guys who wanted to "just have some fun" and BUILD a task oriented program that would be difficult and yet fun.

Well said Steve. Glad to help get this program on its feet and at a sufficient amount of difficulty for each level, even if that means I can't work on Bronze for a while. I would gladly redo copper if that helped the program grow.
I 100% agree with you that the long pole on the LSF tasks is the competitions. I am also a Level II and currently have only one competition completed with the second one being done the coming weekend.
Tom, welcome to the program. Not suprised that you got through copper quickly. Jealous that i can't fly as much either.
Money on the other hand does not compensate for the lack of time put in to it.
I would put my much cherished Super Esprit up to prove what I am about to type:
Take the top 100 guys in the world and give them Oly II's and they will remain the top 100 guys because they put the time in to learn how to FLY, i.e. they have developed the skill needed to win.
Hey, that is what both programs are about
Right now my $1400 Victor is seeing less air time than my $300 Aquila XL. Heck my Wanderer 72 has seen more air time than the Victor in the last month!!!! Granted we have only had three good weekends out of the last 6 and I had to work the last one
It will get air time this weekend Dave
Thank You for calling me one of the younger guys Tom, some days I do feel 51 but most of the time it is closer to 31
Interestingly I also know several guys stuck on the 1 hour thermal flights for LSF4.
Me personally I attempted the 2K goal and return at least a dozen times over 4 years.
I do agree that if you take just the non contest tasks of the SAP and compare it to the SSP that the SSP is more difficult. And I think the level of complexity/difficulty is a good thing.
Steve and I did my 1K G&R which could have easily been a 3K.
I have walked the distance we covered flying my Super Esprit but when Steve said "jump in" I could not resist.
Tried to make it a 45 minute flight but only made it to 28 and change.
Could have made an hour easy with my Aquila XL at 2300' but right after the Pic told me the altitude it also said the battery was at 4.9 volts. Still got 39 for the 30 minute for the LSF.
You will obviously be getting good participation, so waiting and working out the tasks will be a good thing. Just don't loose momentum. If there's anything I can help with, let me know. I do like the way you have the sheet laid out with the "or" in the middle. You do need to have a place for the full name and address of the participant, rather than just the name and #. Keep up the good work.
I sure hope catching is allowed for the slope landing precision tasks. Future tasks will require flying a better sailplane and I would definately prefer to catch it. Part of the requirement should be that the sailplane does not cause bodily harm when catching it
Steve, does this mean I have to redo my copper? I was only bluffing man....
Agree with Thermaler's comments on the best are the best regardless what they fly. I have seen Joe Wurts fly a pig in a thermal competition and still kick butt. One thing to note though, more expensive, full house ships are easier for me to land than my rudder elevator DLG. Not that it can't be done, just easier for me to use the technology already available in my quiver of sailplanes.
One of the great equalizers in the program is that everyone has to do a goal and return at the higher levels, regardless of whether you are on the slope or thermal slide. I hope that stays in place while we re-wicker the upper level tasks.

The Shriners Hospitals for Children in the Twin Cities is preparing to receive a number of injured Haitian children. The hospital is coordinating with Minnesota-based aid groups to determine the extent of their injuries and what care they may need.
The children will arrive sometime in the next few days. Hospital officials say any treatment given to injured Haitian children at the Twin Cities pediatric hospital will be free of charge.
Charles Lobeck is the administrator at Shriners Hospitals Twin Cities.
"Shriners has a long history of supporting kids at no cost with pediatric orthopedic care and that extends to regional disaster relief in areas like Haiti," Lobeck said.
"Particularly in this disaster there are a number of orthopedic-related injuries: crush injuries or fractures and other related complications that are best treated by an orthopedic surgeon."
More details on how many children are coming to Minnesota and the nature of their injuries are expected over the next few days.
The hospital is also sending a surgeon who specializes in pediatric orthopedics to the Caribbean nation early next week.

Subject: [ARIZARD] Jane Mason Jeffery?
Date: Fri, 20 Jul 2007 09:18:29 -1000
Hi guys
Got a wonderful email from one of our old favorites - well, she is young, but old to the List? LOL But, got an email from Elvada and she is wondering if anyone has learned anything additionally about Jane Mason (1769-1853) - wife of James "Old Jim" Jeffery II (1759-1843)?
Elvada tells me that an LDS contributor has that Jane was the daughter of George Mason and Ann Eibeck. She has doubts on this parentage.
My records show that Jane's father was a Samuel F. Mason, Sr. from Wales and unknown mother was an American citizen.
Here are my notes to file on Jane Mason and have to tell you that the research is pretty dated:
Subj: Re: [ARIZARD-L] Jane Mason in Virginia
Date: 09/14/2000
From: (Jean Mayfield Cuevas)
Hi Beth,Thanks for explaining where you are coming from. The two brothers, Daniel and Nathaniel both married BRASHEARS sisters. The third possibility was of a Samuel who lived in Greene County, MO., According to Snyder Roberts' book, Roots of Roane. It was also suggested that Daniel died in Greene County, and his body was shipped back for buriel to Roane County.
>From Snyder Roberts Book:
One unverified report is to the effect that Daniel Mason made a trip to Missouri about 1835 to help in the settlement of the estate of his brother Samuel, Jr. This report is significant because, if confirmed, it would mean that Daniel's father was Samuel, Sr. The report also indicates that Daniel Mason died in Missouri, but records in Roane County indicate that he died in Roane in August of 1839. Unfortunately, the Roane probate records in listing the children of Daniel and Martha (2nd wife) used no commas. hence the above listing could be in slight error."
So, we still have a ways to go, in the gathering of MASON information, but
that's why it's so exciting when we get a new MASON contact, as has
happened in the past half year. (One just within the past couple of weeks).
As for anyone going to Illinois.....
I see Franklin County, TN and Hopkins County, TX mentioned in the records of descendants of Daniel and Polly Brashears Mason, according to a descendant. No IL mentioned, I don't think.
At 02:57 PM 9/14/00 -0400, you wrote:
Jean, Jane Mason's brothers were Daniel and Nathaniel both married Brashear in TN, third was Samuel, right? Daniel and Samuel were later in MO? Daniel in Greene Co? Where did Nathaniel die, in TN or IL? Didn't one of those brothers move to IL? Or have I confused another line of Mason?Thanks! Beth
Marriage record? Mason, Samuel F. in Johnson County, Arkansas 1846 Will Bk A. P. 62.
And finally a chart that I have pieced together and with nothing etched in stone:
Descendants of Samuel F. Mason, Sr.
1 Samuel F. Mason, Sr. b: in Wales
.. +? b: in United States
........ 2 Jane Mason b: 1769 in Kingston, Alexandria, Old Virginia d: 1853 in Mt. Olive, Izard Co., Arkansas Burial: Izard Co., Arkansas
............ +James "Old Jim" Jeffery II b: 1759 in Virginia m: 1785 in Kingston, Alexandria, Old Virginia d: 1843 in Mt. Olive, Izard Co., Arkansas Burial: Old Jeffery Cemetery-Mt. Olive, Izard Co., Arkansas
........ 2 Daniel Mason b: 1770 in Potomoc River, Virginia or Maryland d: August 1839 in Roane Co., Tennessee
............ +Mary "Polly" Brashears b: March 13, 1776 in Guilford Co., North Carolina m: May 01, 1796 in Knox Co., Tennessee d: 1819 in Roane Co., Tennessee
........ *2nd Wife of Daniel Mason:
............ +Martha "Patsy" Hicks b: 1797 in North Carolina m: May 20, 1819 in Roane Co., Tennessee d: Aft. 1850 in probably Greene Co., Missouri
........ 2 Nathanial Mason b: in Potomoc River, Virginia or Maryland
............ +Phoebe Brashears m: July 09, 1801 in Roane Co., Tennessee
........ 2 Samuel F. Mason, Jr. d: July 27, 1835 in Spadra Bluffs, Johnson Co., Arkansas
Anyone have anything that they might could add? Any Jeffery researchers? Beth?

Sony announced its intention to enter into a joint venture with Sharp concerning LCD panel production. More specifically, Sony is going to buy a one-third share in Sharp's latest LCD panel plant that isn't scheduled to be finished until 2010.
The new plant is located in Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, Japan and uses tenth generation glass substrates. Its production capacity will be 72,000 panels a month at full-capacity, but 36,000 per month to begin with. Tenth generation production facilities allow for greater capacity and therefore more efficient production than older, earlier generation plants.
The joint venture will see the formation of a new company around April 2009 and is being seen as benefiting both companies. For Sony, it ensures a supply of panels to help meet growing demand for flat-panels displays. For Sharp, it means a guaranteed customer for its new plant that will help offset the US$3.5 billion cost of building it.
Under the terms of the agreement, Sony and Sharp will gain access to a subset of the total panels produced in line with their investment. That roughly equates to Sony receiving 24,000 panels a month when the plant is at full-capacity.
Read more at Reuters and the Sony press release.
Matthew's Opinion
Yesterday we saw how Pioneer, a company with little investment in the production side of LCD manufacturing was struggling. Now, we have the opposite end of the scale with those heavily investing both benefiting going forward.
The market is such that the more panels you can manufacture the better off you are as a company, since other companies will buy from you. Toshiba is also starting to buy LCD panels from Sharp, but as a customer, not a partner.
Although this new venture does benefit both parties, I think Sony is the real winner. The company has guaranteed a significant number of new generation panels for an investment of money, whereas Sharp has had to do the hard work planning and getting the plant built as well as adding a huge investment.

The Dragon's Tail Ridge is an alternative route up the west side of Grandeur Peak. The route follows the next major ridge to the immediate south of the standard west ridge described in the West Slopes route.
This route is named for the prominent bands of limestone cliffs which snake their way up the lower and middle portions of the ridge, giving the appearance of a dragon's tail when viewed from a distance.
Refer to the main page "Getting There" section for directions to the trailhead.
One-Way Hiking Distance: 2.2 miles
Trailhead Elevation: 4,960 ft.
Summit Elevation: 8,299 ft.
Elevation Gain: 3,339 ft.
Average Gain per Mile: 1,518 ft.
Route Description
GPS coordinates appear in blue and are UTM NAD83.
From the trailhead parking area (432780E 4506582N) follow the trail up the sagebrush slopes to the north of the residential areas until it reaches the flat dirt road which runs north-south along the base of the mountain. Turn right and follow the road south; about 200 feet along the road the standard West Slopes trail (433149E 4506555N) can be seen heading up the ridge on the left.
Continue south along the road for ±0.20 mile and look for the vague remnants (433243E 4506257N) of on old road climbing steeply up the slopes on the left. Hike up this road for approximately 300 feet and look for a trail climbing steeply up the slopes above the road (433271E 4506166N). Follow this trail as it makes a series of small switchbacks, then moves onto the rounded lower portions of the actual ridge.
Follow the trail upwards for ±0.15 mile to the base (433502E 4506104N)of the first low rockband on the ridge, a 100-yard long band of limestone known as "The Reef". On the north side of this rockband is a series of bolted sport climbs. Either hike around the north side of the rockband or ascend around the backside on the south.
At the upper end of The Reef the next major rockband which comprises the dragon's tail portion of the ridge can be seen about 1/3 of a mile further up the ridge. Continue following the faint trail up to the dragon's tail, then pass the 0.25-mile long rockband on the right (south).
Above the dragon's tail the faint hiker's trail soon fades completely, although numerous game trails may be seen. Here the ridge becomes more rounded, and soon after the first brush is encountered. The bushwhacking may appear formidable but is actually not as bad as it looks. With a little routefinding and periodic use of game trails the bushwhacking will rarely exceed Class BW2.
Eventually the brush clears up a bit, and the ridge becomes narrow and rocky. It is possible to remain right on the ridge, but there is a fair amount of brush on the ridge and it is generally easier to contour a few dozen feet below the ridge on the south.
After passing a small dip in the ridge the brush ends for good, and the ridge begins climbing steeply the final 600 feet to the summit. About 50 yards prior to reaching the summit the Church Fork trail intersects the ridge and is followed the short remaining distance to the summit (435821E 4506523N).
The recommended descent route is via the standard West Slopes ridge, which will create a loop hike returning to the starting trailhead.

Antibiotics/Antimicrobials for Gum Disease
Sustained-release antibiotics
How It Works
Antibiotics kill bacteria. Plaque contains bacteria, so antibiotics will reduce the amount of plaque in your mouth. This can reverse gum disease and allow your gums to heal.
Dentists prescribe antibiotics in different forms to treat gum disease. They can be applied directly on the gums (topical), swallowed as pills or capsules, swished around on your teeth as mouthwash, or inserted into the pockets of advanced gum disease. Some medicated toothpastes contain an antibacterial ingredient that reduces plaque and gingivitis when used regularly. Ask your dentist if this type of product would help you.
Why It Is Used
How Well It Works
If antibiotic treatment is combined with proper brushing and flossing habits, gum disease can sometimes be stopped. Then gums can become pink and healthy again.
Side Effects
Some possible side effects of antibiotic pills include:
Sometimes switching to a different medicine will reduce or end these side effects.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
Antibiotic mouthwashes should not be swallowed but swished around in your mouth and then spit out.
Bacteria that cause disease can become resistant to medicines used to treat those diseases or illnesses. When this happens, the medicines are no longer effective at killing or controlling the bacteria that cause the disease. Be sure to take antibiotics exactly as they are prescribed and for the exact amount of time prescribed. And never use leftover antibiotics for a different illness.

It didn't take wide receiver Davone Bess very long to bounce back.
Bess dropped three passes last week and muffed a punt that the Kansas City Chiefs recovered in the fourth quarter. The dropped punt and the final dropped pass, which came on a fourth-down play as quarterback Jason Campbell scrambled out of the pocket, all but ended the Browns' chances at a victory.
It brought Bess' drop total to nine according to ProFootballFocus.com, which led the league entering Sunday. According to STATS LLC, Bess had seven drops. Either way, he was in the top-5 of a category no receiver wants to be associated with, in particular a veteran such as himself.
Bess rebounded in a big way for the Browns on Sunday, catching a career-high two touchdown passes and hauling in a key pass on fourth-and-1 at the 43-yard line that kept the chains moving and allowed the Browns to run the clock down in the fourth quarter in their 24-18 victory.
He only had three receptions, but all three were crucial.
"You have got to take it one play at a time," Bess said of rebounding from a bad game. "One snap at a time. That's the only way you can get back. You can't dive in and fix it all on one play."
Bess' first touchdown was from 1 yard out. Campbell threw off his back foot but found Bess, who fought off two defenders for the ball. Later, Campbell hit Bess on a short pass from the 20-yard line. Bess advanced a few yards and then juked Ravens cornerback Lardarius Webb to the ground to put the Browns ahead 14-3.
Perhaps the biggest symbol of Bess' turnaround came on his fourth-down reception, which was nearly identical to the fourth-down pass against the Chiefs he couldn't catch.
"I dropped the one last week, and that definitely went through my head," Bess said. "They was blitzing, bringing pressure. I turned around on my route, saw Jason scrambling and it looked exactly how it was last week. He was rolling, threw it at me and I just came over and fell."
Campbell trusted Bess enough to go to him this week.
"It was a huge play, probably the biggest play of the game," Campbell said of the conversion. "I was so happy for [Bess] to come back in a similar situation from a week ago and step up to make a play to get open. I couldn't be more proud of a guy."
Bess also assured Campbell earlier in the week he'd be there when it mattered most.
"He came to me Monday and said, 'J, I'll be there for you this week. He told me that Monday and I remembered. I told him I believe in him. I said, 'You didn't get this far playing in the league by going in the tank after something like that. I thought he came out here and put [it] in his mind to show people what type of player he is."

Hockey Prospectus is taking a look at the NHL division by division and suggesting ways each team should tackle the forthcoming trade deadline. Tuesday, we continue with the Northwest Division.
Feb. 28 marks the NHL's trade deadline and every team in the league -- those playoff-bound and those likely for the draft lottery -- has needs to address. To prepare for the final flurry of transactions, we're going team by team to see which players can help fill holes on contenders or provide foundational stability for teams building for next season and beyond.
One statistic you'll come across in the analysis below is GVT, the main player valuation metric used by Hockey Prospectus. For a detailed explanation of GVT, click here.
Vancouver Canucks
The problem: As is their custom, the Canucks have seen their blue-line depth completely depleted, thanks to injuries to Alexander Edler (back), Dan Hamhuis (concussion), Keith Ballard (leg), Kevin Bieksa (foot) and Andrew Alberts (wrist). Vancouver is currently employing Christian Ehrhoff, Sami Salo and five guys from the Manitoba Moose on the back end for the time being, with a high probability that the fragile Salo will be back in the infirmary any minute.

The board discussed the item at its Aug. 23 meeting, but gave final approval Thursday.
Beginning in December, the district will increase its contribution to $231 monthly from $197. There will be $500 added to the base salary of certified employees' salary schedule, while 20 cents will be added to classified employees' salary schedule and $200 to bus drivers' salary schedule.
The salary increases and increased monthly contribution will cost the district an estimated $554,000.
According to a report provided in August by Assistant Superintendent Nathan Barber, 472 of the district's 529 employees who participate in the health insurance program will experience rate increases beginning in December.

global-e was conceived as a forum for timely commentary regarding global events, processes, and issues. Each number features a brief essay authored by leading scholars and practitioners, offering provocative reflections on a range of topics with the aim of stimulating discussion among the global studies community. The aim is both to encourage the circulation of commentary essays and to stimulate discussion among readers. Commentaries focus on public issues, theoretical debates, methodological challenges, and curricular concerns.
Launched in 2008 as a pathbreaking collaboration of global studies centers at four major universities and expanding to six in 2009, global-e initially relied on contributions of these centers' federal Title VI resources for its operation. More recently, Title VI centers have been subjected to a wave of federal funding cuts that have reduced their budgets by half and forced them to restructure their operations and commitments. After a breif hiatus in 2012, global-e was relaunched in summer 2013 with a new look, new leadership, and new publishing objectives. As executive editor, Michael Curtin (UCSB) works closely with managing editors Victor Faessel (UCSB) and Steve Smith (U of Wisconsin, Madison), and the journal is based at the Orfalea Center for Global and International Studies at UCSB. It is supported by a distinguished editorial board comprising leading scholars from around the world and by ties to the Global Studies Consortium, an alliance of some two dozen member and numerous affiliated programs on five continents that confer or have plans to confer graduate degrees in global/transnational studies.

Global, Area, and International Archive is a peer-reviewed publications program. GAIA is an initiative of the division of International and Area Studies, University of California, Berkeley, in partnership with the University of California Press, the California Digital Library, and international research programs across the University of California system. Its aim is to represent the best traditions of regional studies, reconfigured through fresh global, transnational, and thematic perspectives. GAIA volumes are published in both open-access digital and print editions.
The Orfalea Center and the Global & International Studies Program at UCSB have facilitated the posting of GAIA-relevant articles for the wider global studies community at UCSB.

First week in the new office
I'm sitting at my new desk, the birds are all tweeting and out of my window all I can see is green. Oscar and Tess love the new regime and are much more relaxed here than in our old office, the one with the one dog clause in the lease!
The light is better here somehow, there's a happy atmosphere.
It's peak time now at the magazine but it's time to shut this computer down and close the door - and go across the garden to start work on my laptop!
See there is still a work home divide! It's just a narrower one.

About Quetta
Quetta is the capital of Pakistan's Balochistan province and makes an excellent base for exploration of Balochistan. The name Quetta is derived from the Pashto (the language of Afghanistan) word "Kwatta" which means a fort and relates to the fact that the city is a natural fort, being ringed by hills, dominated by three mountains: Chiltan, Zarghun and Koh-e-Murdar, all of which are capped with snow in the winter.
Strategically, Quetta is an important city due to its proximity to borders with Iran and Afghanistan. Historically, however, Quetta owes much of its importance to the Bolan Pass which links it to Kandahar, Afghanistan. An ancient city, Quetta has been a place of human habitation since pre-historic times. Known as the fruit basket of Pakistan, Quetta if famous for its wild tulips, saffron fields and its glorious selection of fruits and nuts, which include; plums, peaches, pomegranates, apricots, apples, guavas (locally called zaitoon), melons, cherries, pistachios and almonds.
Quetta is 1,680 meters (5,500 feet) above sea level and enjoys a healthy climate. The temperature drops a few degrees below the freezing point in winter.
It is not known when Quetta was first inhabited, but most likely it was settled during the 6th century. The region remained part of the Sassanid Persian Empire and was later annexed by the Rashidun Caliphate during the 7th century Islamic conquest. The first detailed account of Quetta relates to its capture, in the 11th century by Mahmud of Ghazni. The Mughals ruled Quetta until 1556, when the Persians conquered the city, only to have it retaken by the Mughals in 1595. The powerful Khans of Kalat held the fort from 1730. Although occupied briefly by the British during the First Afghan War in 1839, it was not until 1876 that Quetta came under the control of the British Empire. Since Partition, the population of Quetta has increased dramatically; it has also become a popular Pakistani tourism destination.

Hillstar can outshine highly-rated stablemate Arab Spring and claim the glory in the Princess of Wales's boylesports.com Stakes at Newmarket.
All eyes will be on Sir Michael Stoute's Royal Ascot winner, who is the choice of stable jockey Ryan Moore, but Hillstar will certainly want for nothing in the saddle with Frankie Dettori back on board following their recent second in Berkshire.
Admittedly Hillstar proved no match for another Stoute inmate in Telescope in the Hardwicke Stakes, but he may well have been a touch closer than the seven lengths he was beaten had he enjoyed a clear run through a couple of furlongs from home.
While he would not have beaten Telescope, the way Hillstar was staying on at the end suggested that the momentary check on his progress cost him valuable momentum.
Hillstar has not actually got his head in front since winning the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot last June, but he has been tried in top company since with his King George third last summer a highly-creditable performance.
The Dubai World Cup really did not play to his strengths on his initial outing of 2014 while the Chester ground was against him when he was surprisingly beaten on the Roodee in May, so you can probably put a line through both of those runs.
Hillstar will have to prove he is back on song at Headquarters but with conditions to suit, he can remind everyone of just what he can achieve in this Group Two heat.
Mind Of Madness is another Ascot also-ran to pitch up on the July Course and he holds excellent claims in the Portland Place Properties July Stakes.
Well-regarded by connections, he disappointed when well beaten by American raider Hootenanny in the Windsor Castle Stakes on the opening day only to bounce back with an excellent third in the Norfolk later in the week.
He snatched second in the dying strides that day and his style of running combined with his pedigree suggests this switch back up to six furlongs will suit.
Hartnell was a winner at Ascot and he can supplement his Queen's Vase victory in the Bahrain Trophy.
Mark Johnston tried his charge in a couple of Derby trials earlier in the season but as the Authorized colt seemed to lack that necessary bit of zip, the Middleham handler set his sights on the Listed two-mile prize.
Hartnell was clearly the best horse that day as he won by neck despite idling in front and drifting across the track in the finish.
He steps back to a mile and five furlongs here and while he has a couple of pounds to find with the likes of Bunker and Odeon, he is certainly guaranteed to stay the trip.
Pretzel impressed in winning at Ayr last time and can follow up in Newmarket's Hastings Direct Sir Henry Cecil Stakes.
He already boasted a nice bit of form having chased home Ascot winner Muteela on his seasonal bow at Newmarket in May and he built on that with a four-and-a-half-length verdict in Scotland last month.
An 11lb hike in the ratings means the handicap route is virtually closed for now but this move up to Listed level appears a natural progression for a horse who is full of potential.
Richard Hannon should be in the money at both Doncaster and Bath with Burnt Sugar fancied in the second division of the 188Bet British Stallion Studs EBF Maiden Stakes on Town Moor while Cricklewood Green can land the Injured Jockeys Fund 50th Anniversary Handicap at Bath.
Ethics Girl hit the bar last time and should be on the premises again in Epsom's Beach Boys 17 July Handicap with Nabeel a noteworthy Godolphin runner in the BSCL And Tech-ology Solution Partner Maiden Stakes at Nottingham.
BATH: 6.00 Outbid, 6.30 Spray Tan, 7.00 Blue Eyed Boy, 7.35 Cricklewood Green, 8.10 Cataria Girl, 8.40 Danz Star, 9.10 Lucky Diva.
DONCASTER: 2.00 Fever Few, 2.30 Big Bear, 3.05 Burnt Sugar, 3.40 Katie Taylor, 4.15 History Book, 4.50 Xinbama, 5.25 Captain Dunne, 5.55 Blazing Desert.
EPSOM: 6.10 Last Minute Lisa, 6.40 Maftool, 7.15 Harry Bosch, 7.50 Ethics Girl, 8.20 Go Sakhee, 8.50 Pucon.
LEOPARDSTOWN: 5.50 Law Equity, 6.20 Reckless Lad, 6.50 Chance To Dance, 7.25 Hellenistic, 8.00 Starlet, 8.30 Blue Ridge Lane, 9.00 Chill.
NEWMARKET: 1.40 Hartnell, 2.10 Mind Of Madness, 2.40 HILLSTAR (NAP), 3.15 Mange All, 3.50 War Alert, 4.25 Pretzel, 5.30 Go Nani Go.
NOTTINGHAM: 2.20 Scarlet Bounty, 2.55 Nabeel, 3.30 Katawi, 4.05 Khatiba, 4.35 Naivasha, 5.10 Taws.
DOUBLE: Hillstar and Mind Of Madness.

Ladies, Get Your Man a Hat for Christmas–They're Not Just to Cover Bald Spots
Hats are back in style!
I'll admit that although I like hats, they don't necessarily like me. I've got a big melon and a longer face, and many hats that I've tried just don't look good on me. And you know something? Hats are not just for guys who feel the need to cover up a bald spot.
However, after watching an Episode #71 of Mansome's–'Hats,' I think I'll give it another try. I might even hint to my wife that a Newsboy or Fedora would be a nice gift for Christmas. And I sure don't need another baseball style hat.
There are a number of things you'll need to consider before taking the plunge. Ladies, if you're trying to keep the hat a secret, and you want to get the right size the first time, you may want to measure a hat in advance that he wears a lot.
But check out the video for some comedy relief and some good ideas:

Alternative Title: "L'Être et le néant"
Learn about this topic in these articles:
discussed in biography
...Psychologie phénoménologique de l'imagination (1940; The Psychology of Imagination). But it was above all in L'Être et le néant (1943; Being and Nothingness) that Sartre revealed himself as a master of outstanding talent. Sartre places human consciousness, or no-thingness ( néant), in opposition to being, or...
place in development of
...a philosophical movement. Its leading figure, the French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre (1905–80), propounded his ideas in novels and plays as well as in his major philosophical treatise, Being and Nothingness (1943). Sartre held that there is no God, and therefore human beings were not designed for any particular purpose. The existentialists expressed this by stating that...
...that all that exists in society beyond the individual is "expressible by a minus sign," and Sartre affirmed, in his major work L'Être et le néant (1943; Being and Nothingness), that "the Other is the hidden death of my possibilities." For other forms of existentialism, however, a coexistence that is not anonymous (as that of a mob)...
... The Emotions: Outline of a Theory (1939), and The Psychology of Imagination (1940). In 1943 Sartre published his first major philosophical work, Being and Nothingness, which immediately established his reputation as the leading representative of existential phenomenology, or existentialism, in France.
In L'Être et le néant (1943; Being and Nothingness), an essay on phenomenological ontology, it is obvious that Sartre borrowed from Heidegger. Some passages from Heidegger's Was ist Metaphysik? (1929; What Is Metaphysics?), in fact, are copied literally. The meaning of nothingness, which Heidegger in this lecture made the theme of...
problem of other minds
...statements about one's own sensations. The approach to the problem of other minds within existentialism is exemplified in a long chapter of L'Être et le néant (1943; Being and Nothingness), by Jean-Paul Sartre.

Sheffield has failed to make it into a new list of top destinations voted for by tourists – despite rivals Leeds and York both featuring.
The city was absent from the UK category of the Travellers' Choice awards for Destinations, announced by TripAdvisor, and has not featured in the past four years.
Plaudits for the best places in the UK, Europe and the world are based on 'millions of reviews and ratings'.
TripAdvisor said it was 'clear that Yorkshire's popularity among holiday-goers is on the rise' after Leeds came ninth and York sixth.
London was number one, while the seaside towns of Llandudno and Torquay also made the top 10.
Some Star readers said Sheffield has much to shout about, including its proximity to the great outdoors.
But others suggested improvements are needed to attract visitors, from filling empty shops to celebrating the city's music heritage.
David Smith, a fan of The Star on Facebook, said: "There's a lot to be proud of with Sheffield, it's a great place to live. But, like anywhere else, there are improvements to be made.
"It would help if the powers-that-be could make a decision, then stick to it.
"I don't buy Meadowhall as a problem as Leeds has The White Rose shopping centre and Manchester has the Trafford Centre.
"What they do is embrace what made them big in the first place, and make it an asset."
Donna Eyre added: "We've got museums, the cathedral, Cutlers' Hall and Meadowhall. We've got as good as Leeds has got for a start."
Brendan Moffett, director of Marketing Sheffield, said the only way was up.
He said: "We're delighted Yorkshire is getting such a great profile, and this will undoubtedly get another boost with Sheffield in particular hosting the Tour de France Grand Départ.
"Sheffield has seen a significant increase in overnight visitors in recent years and, with additional investment from hospitality providers such as the recent opening of the Hampton by Hilton, the visitor economy is on an upward trend and pushing for the top 10."
Litter, the demolition of historic buildings, and too many betting shops were highlighted as off-putting by Sheffield residents.
Gill MacLaine said: "Sheffield isn't helped by its misguided belief that pulling down old buildings is good for the city. York is popular because it cherishes and preserves its heritage."
Craig North added: "I think more should be made of Sheffield's fantastic music heritage. You rarely see legends like Phil Oakey, Martin Fry and Joe Elliott celebrated like Manchester celebrates its musical icons. A music museum would be a great idea."

A West Texas post has suspended its Adopt-A-Soldier holiday program because of fewer young, unmarried soldiers needing a place to go for a family meal.
The El Paso Times reported Thursday that Fort Bliss cited changing demographics at the installation.
Public affairs officer Jean Offutt says there just weren't enough soldier volunteers to meet the needs of the community who wanted them in their homes.
Offutt says people in El Paso have always embraced the program, which goes back at least 25 years. Up to 70 percent of the soldiers at Fort Bliss are married.
Offutt says the suspended program will be re-evaluated later to see if there's more interest or in case Fort Bliss starts getting more single soldiers.

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of San Marcos? Is it the amazing restaurants praised for their hospitality and variety? The lush parks full of picnic-goers, families and biking enthusiasts? Is it the beautiful northern San Diego County panorama you can only see from the Double Peak Park or the image of the San Bernardino Mountains towering over the Great Los Angeles Area almost like a mirage? Is it the city's rich history, dating back to the late 18th century when the Spanish named the area in honor of St. Mark's Day, the day that this stunning valley was first discovered?
San Marcos Home & Room Additions
Many San Marcos citizens' answer to some of these suggestions might be a positive one. Others might have other things on their mind: dear, personal memories of growing up in this beautiful city. They might think of their child's baby steps in the old family home, or playing with their siblings in the courtyard. Some might think of how difficult it would be to leave all this behind because their old family home is becoming too narrow to house them. Are you one of them? Then let Murray Lampert Design, Build and Remodel step in and help.
Is your home becoming smaller? Consider home additions in San Marcos
Home additions are an easy solution to your housing problems. Rather than leaving your old family home because of the lack of space, take matters into your own hands and make the additional space you need. Home additions in San Marcos are a huge hit with growing families, who welcome the option of staying in their neighborhood rather than moving out and selling their old home along with all of the memories it holds.

The Made in Italy Business Directory
Founded in 1967, Pomellato serves as a brilliant example of the art of Italian goldsmiths. The company started life as a small craft workshop, and even though it has now grown to become an internationally famous brand, still maintains the fresh approach of the original business. Even the guiding principles which govern the daily work of the enterprise have remained the same: dedication, consistency, and careful planning. We asked Andrea Morante, the managing director, about the strengths of the company and his plans for the future.
Mr. Morante, what are the strengths of Pomellato as a business?
The company is consistent in its approach, maintaining its position in the realm of European jewellery, where the markets are more demanding. The quality of the product is also consistent, but at the same time extremely creative.
Also, the decision to introduce an annual collection compels the company to enrich its range, and creates a sense of anticipation in the market.
What do you think is the secret of your success?
The development and launch of an additional line of jewellery (DoDo) instead of trying to extend the existing Pomellato brand into a new product sector. Within Europe, DoDo has been one of the biggest success stories of recent years. Then there is the special relationship we have with our clients. Pomellato customers are loyal because itŌĆÖs very hard to find similar products elsewhere. Finally, we have huge potential for expansion on overseas markets and a great capacity for creativity.
Which of the overseas markets do you favour?
We think in terms of the worldŌĆÖs most important cities. This is where you increasingly find the greatest concentration of buying power, and interest in new products and trends
The big cities of America and the Pacific region are our current marketing target. It is no accident that in the next couple of months we are opening shops in Beijing, Chicago and Beirut.
The important thing is to always maintain a high degree of craftsmanship in our work.
Which product best personifies the Pomellato brand?
For Pomellato, perhaps itŌĆÖs the Nudo ring, with its simple design and rounded shape. The central stone stands out, like a great solitaire; the setting is invisible and the coloured stone is quite simple, beautifully faceted and shot through with light. For DoDo, it must be the pendant, representing an animal bearing love and friendship, or a good luck charm.
What is the quality that distinguishes you from your competitors at an international level?
We are the fifth most important jewellery company in Europe, but the smallest in terms of gross turnover when compared to our competitors, who sell perfume, watches, leather goods, and accessories in addition to jewellery. These help to promote the jewellery side of their business.
How do you envisage the companyŌĆÖs future?
There are three very important challenges. We want to make Pomellato one of the worldŌĆÖs top five jewellery businesses, and we want to ensure that DoDo becomes an international brand. WeŌĆÖd like to make it a real cross-border business, with its roots firmly in Italian design, and still managing to maintain the spirit of the company as it expands. We are also planning to have RA.MO listed on the Stock market: thatŌĆÖs the parent company for Pomellato and DoDO.

Ricoh Achieves Color Electronic Paper Display with Significantly Enhanced Brightness and Color Reproducibility
Ricoh announced that the company has achieved a display of color still images with about 2.5 times brighter (in white reflectivity) and about 4 times wider color reproduction range compared with presently commercialized or announced color electronic paper technologies.
Ricoh developed in March 2009 the world's first new organic electrochromic material producing three primary colors (Cyan, Magenta and Yellow) while improving memory properties . The company at the same time proposed a simple laminating element structure, forming three electrochromic layers between two substrates. This proved the feasibility of color electronic paper capable of achieving a bright display at low power consumption and low cost.
Based on this result, Ricoh moved from the development phase of element technology to the development of a practical application of prototypes featuring high resolution electronic paper. This led to success in achieving bright images with high color image reproducibility. Ricoh will accelerate development toward practical application by improving reliability/repetition durability (guaranteeing tens of thousands of rewrites) and larger screen size. Although development will expand to include document display devices that can display fine characters, the evolution will progress with various applications developing in parallel.

A collection of classic Western Tales
"Canon Walls" by Zane Grey
Smoke Bellew enters a remote Mormon settlement only a jump ahead of a posse. Finding employment as a ranch hand working for a dowager Mormon, Smoke finds that his life undergoes a transformation and he is able to make her ranch a financial success, at the same time falling in love with her wanton daughter, Rebecca. But it is too good to last. The law follows him.
"Black Sheep" by Max Brand
YoungMary Valentine - upstart, tomboy, and general troublemaker - is seeking to protect a man wanted by the law. To complicate her life even further, her two cousins, who have been dodging the law, return home and decide with their father to join the notorious Markle gang in holding up the local bank.
"Showdown on the Hogback" by Louis L'Amour
Tom Kedrick is hired by a financial syndicate to run off a gang of vagrants and outlaws from a certain strip of land. Kedrick setsout to serve justice, but to his dismay, these "vagrants and outlaws" turn outto be hard-working ranchers and farmers also claiming the land.

"Totally Enjoyable combination of stories"
This collection hit the spot. It contains an out-and-out romance by Zane Grey, a suspenseful story by Max Brand told from the unusual perspective of a child, and a full-fledged mystery//western by Louis L'Amour.
I always enjoy how Louis L'Amour can put some historical education and perspective into his stories. The background for his Captain Tom Kettridge is an example of that: the character's resume is a survey of wars and battles fought around the world at the time of the Old West era.
The descriptions of sliding down a haystack in the moonlight made for a fun and memorable scene in the Zane Grey story. For the rest, shootout scenes are always fun.
I could have listened to it all at once if time had permitted, it was all that good. But the audio player sometimes cut out on me and I had to pick up the story later.

Morrowind - Diary, Day 4
Alec Meer hits an Existential Crisis:
I've stolen clothes from corpses. I've made an old woman run up a mountain. I've hidden drugs in the cellar of a religious organisation. I've beaten up adorable animals. So many adorable animals. But.. what am I? As I finally approached the outskirts of Balmora, second-largest city on this hostile island, questions about my purpose and my nature weighed heavy upon me. This much I knew: I was named Loaf, a Dunmer by birth, and an Agent by trade. Beyond that, I was simply a empty cipher at best, a irritating clown at worst. At least, I realised, this was probably why I'd been slowly but intently wending my Machiavellian way to Balmora these past few days – somewhere amidst its hubbub, grime and crime, I hoped to find an answer to that most ultimate of questions. Why am I here?

Sosa went 1-for-2 with a walk and a strikeout against Birmingham Barons left-hander Ryan Meaux. The Diamond Jaxx took their 1-0 Sosa-given lead and turned it into a 2-1 victory over the Barons, Double-A affiliate of the White Sox.

I've got two delicious summer desserts both take just a few ingredients. The Green Kitchen Stories Strawberry Rhubarb Ripple FroYo is amazing it's a little sweet, a little tart and very refreshing. The ingredients are strawberries, rhubarb, honey vanilla and Greek yogurt, simple.
When this was cooking the fragrance of the strawberries, rhubarb, vanilla and honey had me wishing that it was in a candle that I could keep going all summer long, yum! Right now is our time to find these ingredients at their peak. The ice cream freezer we have is a just the old fashioned electric plug-in where you add ice and salt to make the ice cream freeze. We've tried every kind of freezer on the market and none do as well as this type. It work's, it lasts, it's cheap and it does it's a half gallon at a time, more is always better ;) The ice cream when it's finished (sorry no good shot I was too busy eating) is fluffy and smooth really good, we doubled the recipe and the freezer had no problem holding it. Pop over here for a pic of the finished Froyo scooped up and the recipe.
My Brown Butter Blackberry Blondies are again easy with a few ingredients but they do have naughty brown sugar & butter, mmmm. These brownies you can mix all in the same pan that you melt the butter in, one pan easy clean up. These you can double not a fussy recipe at all a single batch makes a 10 x 10 pan.
I'm going to give you the faster recipe without browned butter. To have browned butter read the next bit: *If you want browned butter put the butter in a small sauce pan over medium high heat. It will foam and then calm down you need to watch it as it cooks, pulling it off the heat once the butter browns. It will get a light caramel color. Be patient- it seems to take forever then poof it will be brown. Now take the butter off the heat and let it cool 30 minutes.
From there you can put the butter back on the heat over low heat and add the brown sugar stirring just one minute and pulling the new browned butter & brown sugar mixture back off the heat and let it cool. The two cooling periods for the browned butter keep you from burning the sugar which will happen if you don't cool the browned butter…fussy but not too bad. I know it sounds like a lot but that's why I'm giving you two choices :) And now the recipe tah dah:
Browned Butter Blackberry Blondies
*1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup of blackberries (raspberries work too)
350 degree oven – 8 inch or 10 inch pan greased
Melt butter *(see above for browned butter) in small sauce pan over low heat. Add brown sugar and cook 1 minute, stirring often until it bubbles. Remove from heat. Cool 30 minutes. Stir in one egg and vanilla, then flour, baking powder and salt. Pour into pan and spread evenly. Dot the blackberries across the top. Bake 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. I love this recipe!

Subject: General Tech | January 18, 2006 - 02:06 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
The Techzone grabbed Ideazon's ZBoard Customizable Gaming Keyboard, and tried it out on a few games. Read the review, maybe you'll be tossing your old keyboard out later on today.
"Ideazon has a great idea here, and one that has held up well since its introduction. The Gaming
Keyset supports a surprisingly large number of games, and keymaps are easily accessible from the
menu. Well over 50 games are supported, including not only oldies-but-goodies such as Leisure Suit

UPDATED: John Cena Files For Divorce
UPDATE: Liz Cena's attorney tells TMZ that John Cena blindsided her with the divorce filing. The two had been having issues, but she refused to sign a pre-divorce financial settlement agreement that Cena had approached her about. She apparently still believed the relationship could be worked out.
ORIGINAL: According to The Miami Herald, John Cena had filed for divorce from his wife of three years. The divorce papers state that the marriage is "irretrievably broken." Cena's soon to be ex-wife Liz, who was his high school sweetheart, has hired Miami attorney Raymond Rafool, the same attorney that represented Linda Hogan in her divorce from Hulk Hogan.
Cena is reportedly worth over $18 million, and the couple has a prenuptial agreement signed in 2009, that is said to include the ability to take back all gifts and presents.
Rafool released the following statement today…
"Although it is indeed unfortunate that John Cena decided to divorce his high school sweetheart Liz Cena; particularly, after they have come so far in their lives and in his career together, Liz will and really has no choice but to pursue all of her rights and entitlements. Although Mr. Cena pushes a prenuptial agreement and that the parties have only been married for approximately 3 years, Liz Cena has always supported John Cena, even when no one else did, and stood behind him and pushed him forward to achieve their goals for the last 14 years. Sadly, divorce is not the way Liz thought her perfect love story would end."

You need to be on the same wavelength and your children need to feel as though you can relate to them and they can relate to you.
Developing rapport with a person of any age is important when it comes to relaying information and when it comes to creating a sense of trust with that person. It is easy as parents to forget to honor our children enough or to take the time required to move into the child's world and meet them there.
Life is hectic at the best of times and slowing down to develop rapport with our children often does not factor into the equation. However, taking the time to do this makes a great deal of difference in your relationship.
In NLP there is a highly effective way to develop rapport with someone, whether that person is a child or an adult. This is called pacing. Pacing is a subtle, yet powerful form of mimicry that is not obvious to the person with whom you are establishing rapport.
That is to say that it is not obvious on a conscious level. However, pacing reaches the subconscious, a part of the mind that feels flattered by the attention it is receiving.
You see, making a connection with a child does not mean merely showing an interest in that in which the child is interested. Trying to buddy up to the child will not bring about the rapport you wish to build.
No, you need to move completely onto their plain, become part of your child's world. You have to go to your child, whether your child is a toddler or a teen.
Establishing rapport with a child with pacing is really very easy. You need to do two simple things that tell them that you are working with them, on their level. These things are:
1. Physically get down on the same level as your child (if they are smaller than you). If the child is older and bigger, sitting down at the table together might work best. This will bring you eye-to-eye with your child.
2. When you speak to your child, match their tone, facial expression, movements, and the rate of their speech.
Just doing these two simple things will allow you to establish rapport with your child very quickly. You and the child will connect immediately and then with the rapport in place, you can then work on whatever issue is facing your child.
Rachael is a very experienced international corporate professional and is also a certified Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) practitioner. She wants to share her skills and experience with people who want to learn and apply strategies that will bring out the best in their children at home, at school and their future lives.

Are there other websites like Pandora.com or iheartradio.com where you can put in bands or songs you like and they recommend and play songs/bands that are similar in style?
Asked by Self_Consuming_Cannibal (4256) February 5th, 2013
If so, would you tell me their web address? I like Pandora, but here lately it's just playing a lot of the same songs/bands over and over again. I'm looking for one that will really "broaden its horizons."

The new version 4.0 - shown at NAB in Las Vegas - brings storyboard, batch capture, and OLE features to the resolution-independent tool. AIST also used the event to preview its up-coming Movie3D tool, which the company says can be used to created sophisticated 3D models that can be used in MoviePack. MoviePack 4.0 adds new canvas, capturing, timeline, and customization features. A new storyboard view allows editing without the timeline, and the software now sports an automatic scene detection feature for swift clip creation. Pre-marked clips can be batch captured, says AIST, without the need to capture the rest of the footage. An OLE Generator debuts, which lets creators link files, charts, and graphics with other OLE applications, such as Microsoft Excel. The application now be skinned, says AIST, with users able to change the look-&-feel of the interface via a new skin browser. New effect modules will ship with the new version, including floating masks, warping, morphing, MovieParticle, MovieCube, MovieLightning, and MovieXplosion tools. Movie3D was shown at the conference, and is being pitched as a 3D solution for DV and 3D creatives. It sports NURBS technology and Subdivision surfaces for controlling complex object deformation. AIST says the shipping version will include a particle system that lets particles be paitned directly onto an object's surface to create hair and fur. 3D painting will also feature, as will a bones system for character-based animations. Price and shipping have yet to be set.
