Trade union banners on the May Day march in London
A socialist revolution in this country will open up the whole of the world, Frank Sweeney, the General Secretary of the Workers Revolutionary Party, told the rally of a hundred after the May Day March last Tuesday.
The May Day Rally took place at the Africa Centre in Covent Garden after a five-thousand-strong march from Clerkenwell Green to Trafalgar Square.
A lively delegation of Young Socialists and Workers Revolutionary Party members shouting Capitalism is collapsing! Socialism now! were joined by youth, students and workers on the march.
At the WRP&YS rally after the march Frank Sweeney told the audience: Today is the day when all over the world the working class comes together in struggle.
We are supporting all the working classes of the capitalist countries all around the world that are fighting their governments.
We stand with all the embattled workers of the ex-colonial countries fighting against the threat of recolonisation at the hands of the imperialists.
We support the workers of the Soviet Union who are battling to overthrow their Stalinist governments and kick out the would-be capitalists.
We stand side by side with the Palestinian prisoners who are in their third week of hunger strike against administrative detention.
We are for a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.
We send our greetings to the people of Syria who are fighting against imperialism as it tries to take away their sovereignty, and tries to take away their stability.
The world crisis of capitalism is fomenting wars and revolutions.
Comrade Lenin was absolutely correct on that.
We are privileged to be living in the final days of capitalism and the forces are going to emerge to complete the revolution.
We have to recruit these forces, assimilate them into our branches, train these forces and build our revolutionary party.
If you bring down the coalition government in Britain, the working class does not want to go back to a Labour government.
The door is going to be open for a workers government and a revolutionary seizure of power in Britain.
The rally opened with revolutionary greetings from the United Workers Party in Sri Lanka.
The chair Bill Rogers read out a message of revolutionary greetings from the South African Revolutionary Peoples Party and from the Workers Revolutionary League in the Soviet Union who are continuing their struggle for a political revolution against the Stalinist bureaucracy and the would-be capitalists.
Rogers said in his opening remarks: We should send our revolutionary greetings to them! Forward to the world revolution!
Anna Athow, a member of the BMA council, spoke in a personal capacity. She said: I have worked in the NHS all my life.
In the last month, the Tory coalition government has passed through parliament a law to privatise the NHS.
On the 20th March they passed the Health and Social Care Bill through parliament.
This Act aims to legislate away the very basis of the NHS, which is health care that is provided free at the point of need.
They want to set up a market within the NHS where any willing provider can move into the NHS to make a profit out of health care.
They have opened the door to charging for health care and health insurance. It is all modelled on the American style of health care.
Millions and millions of people will be denied health care because they will not be able to afford it.
This has to be stopped.
We have to kick out the very conservative trade union leaders that sit there and prop up the government.
We have to replace these right-wing leaders with a leadership that will stand up and defend public services.
The only way we are going to defend the NHS is through bringing down this government and replacing it with a workers government.
We are going to have to lead a revolution to get rid of this system!
Issa Chaer, from the Syrian Social Club UK, addressed the audience. He said: Our organisation is trying to be the voice for all those Syrians who have no voice in capitalist western countries like Britain.
We want a Syria where Christians, Muslims, Sunnis, Shias, everyone of all religions live as people side by side, peacefully as they have lived for two thousand years.
The western governments and their corporate media are preventing the voices of normal Syrian people from reaching the people of Britain.
They only allow the voices of their cronies to reach the ears of the people in Western countries.
They have sent people into Syria from other Arab countries to make problems in Syria.
For the people who live in Syria, they are being attacked every day by these people.
The Syrian army is being killed by them and mutilated by them.
They are hijacking members of Syrian families and demanding ransom. If the ransom is not paid by the family then the kidnapped person is killed.
They are not trying to create a democracy in Syria. The word democracy is an illusion created by corporate capitalism.
They use this word to make corporate war on countries and nations, to grab money and wealth and resources.
This is a war on the people of Syria, a war that is being organised outside of Syria.
They want to create a bureaucratic government in Syria that they can control from outside and steal all the wealth of Syria just as they did to Libya.
Paul Lepper the editor of the Young Socialist paper, said: This is a historic May Day. We are living in revolutionary times. Capitalism is nose diving, it is collapsing.
People all over the world are rising up and fighting against the system.
Youth in Britain are part of a generation that is fighting for a socialist future.
We have been inspired by the revolution in Egypt that got rid of Mubarak, we have been inspired by the revolution in Tunisia, inspired by the struggles in Greece and in Spain against the savage cuts.
We do not want to live without being able to afford university education.
Nine thousand pounds a year means that this government is closing the door to university on working class students.
Education is a right. It should not be a business and international students should not be bled dry by this system.
This system has nothing to offer young people. Over a million young people are unemployed.
The only jobs available are cheap labour jobs or working for free.
Young people will not be treated like slaves. We are not going to have it.
They have taken away Education Maintenance Allowance, that was £30 a week that would go towards a students travel or lunch money or equipment.
The students did rise up, young people did take to the streets and fight against student fees.
They were not deterred by the police that launched attacks on them, threatened them with rubber bullets and water cannons, kettled them for hours.
Students are absolutely defiant! They say that young people are criminals. Is it criminal to want a future?
The real criminals, the real thieves are this government. The source of the real violence is the police.
What has to be done is that we need to build the Young Socialists movement in a really big way.
We are going to take the Young Socialists on the road. We are going to start by organising a big march through Swindon for jobs for youth and to bring this government down.
We are going to take our marches around the country and build in town after town, city after city.
The only future for young people is a socialist future!
Bill Rogers chair of ASLEF Chingford branch and secretary of the North East London Council of Action told the rally: We have been fighting to save Chase Farm hospital for five and a quarter years.
We started with monthly pickets of the hospital but we felt that we had to step up the fight to a daily picket.
Even the government has had to admit Chase Farm is a test case for the whole NHS.
They plan to shut the A&E, paediatrics and maternity.
Occupation is the only way to stop these closures.
The Health and Social Care Bill has passed into law, but the law is just a bit of paper; they have to try and implement it and that is where we come in.
We are going to take the bold step of occupying the hospital. On the tenth of May, Unite are coming out on strike and ten thousand health workers are coming out on strike.
We have a duty to stand and fight for the health service.
The pickets of Chase Farm hospital have to get stronger and stronger.
We will occupy if necessary and we will prevent the closure.
It will be a beacon for others whose libraries are threatened, schools and anything else that is threatened with closure. We say occupy!

Hi everyone! I am writing a paper for my women's studies class in which we have to look at the media and how it portrays women, etc. For part of my paper I am going to discuss female characters with unisex (OR BOY'S) names and how they may be portrayed differently.
If you could please help me out and name some characters (and the show/movie they are from) with unisex names, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Gordon author holds book signing at Fairlawn
Rose, a free-spirited young woman, leaves her fiancée at the altar of their country church in Walnut, Iowa. Driven by forces beyond her control, she flees to the old western ghost town of Virginia City, Mont., where she feels oddly at home.
Drawn to an old cemetery nestled in the mountains, she discovers a weathered tombstone. Only two words are etched on it -- AMELIA 1868. She begins to sob uncontrollably.
Obsessed with uncovering the identity of this long-forgotten woman, Rose finds herself transported back and forth in time between the life of a hurdy-gurdy dance hall girl in the 1860s and her own sheltered life in the year 2011.
Her strange journey into unknown territory becomes more complicated when a love interest materializes and throws her off balance. Her life becomes a bizarre dance, twisting and turning between past and present. Can she find a way to move into the future?
Written by Janet Kay --known as Jan Jenson to her neighbors in Gordon, the book is featured during a book signing. 7-10 p.m. Sunday at Fairlawn Mansion in Superior.
"Amelia 1868 combines history, romance and the supernatural in an elegant tale of love, loss and purpose. I highly recommend it," said book reviewer Melissa Brown Levine.
"Janet Kay is a gifted storyteller who enthralls her readers with her brilliant imagination and alluring plot. You will not be able to put Amelia 1868 down," Stacie Theis of Beachbound Books stated.

These results demonstrate a different requirement of Cdc42 (show CDC42 Antibodies) activity in primary mouse embryo fibroblasts suggesting that Cdc42 (show CDC42 Antibodies) plays cell-type-specific signaling roles.
to complete invasion of the endothelium, staphylococci reorient recycling endocytic vesicles to recruit Cdc42GAP.
we identified novel associations in WLS (show WLS Antibodies) , ARHGAP1 , and 5' of MEF2C (show MEF2C Antibodies) ( P- values < 8x10 - 5 ; false discovery rate (FDR) q-values < 0.01) that were much more strongly associated with BMD (show BEST1 Antibodies) compared to the GWAS SNPs.
study shows that HMHA1 (show HMHA1 Antibodies) acts as a RhoGAP to regulate GTPase (show RACGAP1 Antibodies) activity, cytoskeletal remodeling and cell spreading, which are crucial functions in normal hematopoietic and cancer cells
The interaction of RhoGap protein (show ARHGAP26 Antibodies) stabilizes the tetrameric conformation of p53 (show TP53 Antibodies) and enhances its DNA-binding activity, thereby inducing cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis.
In PC3 (show PCSK1 Antibodies) cells, ARHGAP21 (show ARHGAP21 Antibodies) presented GAP activity for RhoA (show RHOA Antibodies) and RhoC (show RHOC Antibodies) and induced changes in cell morphology. Moreover, its silencing altered the expression of genes involved in cell proliferation and cytoskeleton organization
RhoGAP Stard13 (show STARD13 Antibodies) temporally and spatially regulates Rho activity in the developing pancreas to ensure that morphogenesis and establishment of tissue architecture are coordinated with organ growth.
Rho proteins and ROK (show GRK1 Antibodies) play a pivotal role in this signaling cascade
PA and Rap1 (show RABGEF1 Antibodies) cooperatively regulate RA-RhoGAP activity for promoting neurite outgrowth.
Mutation of three residues of CDC42GAP involved in specific interactions of CDC42GAP with switch domain residues of Cdc42 (show CDC42 Antibodies), as well as individual mutations of each of these residues, yields GAPs that are defective in stimulating GTP (show AK3 Antibodies) hydrolysis.
phosphorylation of Y1214 on VEGFR2 (show KDR Antibodies) is required to trigger the sequential activation of Cdc42 (show CDC42 Antibodies) and SAPK2/p38 (show MAPK14 Antibodies) and to drive the SAPK2/p38 (show MAPK14 Antibodies)-mediated actin remodeling in stress fibers in endothelial cells exposed to VEGF (show VEGFA Antibodies)
This gene encodes a member of a large family of proteins that activate Rho-type guanosine triphosphate (GTP) metabolizing enzymes. The encoded protein contains a SRC homology 3 domain and interacts with Bcl-2-associated protein family members.

I just searched this forum for "Whole House Fan", but I didn't find much about them (except this and this).
I'm curious to hear what experiences you all may have with these simple and relatively inexpensive devices out in the real world.
Here are some pictures and a basic definition of the type of fans I'm talking about:
4.7.12 Alternative Systems - Ventilation Cooling (2013 CA Energy Efficiency Standards)
The CEC also maintains a list of models approved for sale in California. Does this list adequately represent the state of the art?
Or are there other emerging whole-house ventilation technologies that home professionals ought to know about?
For this discussion, let's try to not confuse an old school "Attic Fan" (which isn't designed to ventilate a conditioned space) with a "Whole House Fan" (which is).
Don't hold back!

Roderick, I see that comments here have waned since the 6th.There are a lot of comments before that.
I want to respond to your comments about Airscape. Neil, the founder, went to a great deal of time trouble and , likely, expense to create the world's first 7 speed whole house fans that can be remotely controlled by smart phones from anywhere in the world. Then, apparently because customers were turning the systems on while away with windows closed, he announced a new vacuum sensor to inhibit his systems when windows are closed.
His systems ARE good but the cost per CFM is a bit high, much like Tamarack. Invisco now has the latest in efficiency, a totally automatic speed control that can be remotely controlled or not, and when turned on starts the fan up at high speed for maximum cooling at temps over 85F, then the speed reduces (and power) linearly from 85 to 70F when the fan is off. There is a manual option as well for winter air changes.
Invisco also offers thermally broken dual dampers for cold climates where IECC2012 specs are needed.
I would be interested in your thoughts on this new product line.

- McLaren
Perez 'in a very difficult position' over future
Sergio Perez admits the timing of McLaren's decision to replace him has left him "in a very difficult position" but insists he is not bitter at the team.
It was announced on Wednesday that Perez would not be retained by McLaren for a second season, with the team likely to promote young driver Kevin Magnussen in to a race seat in 2014. Speaking at a FOTA Fans Forum in Austin, Perez was asked if the team was unfairly dropping him after delivering a poor car this year but declined to criticise McLaren.
"I can stand here and tell you that the team wasn't fair to me, but they have the decision and I really appreciate it," Perez said. "I will keep the best from the team which is a great family and I have no regrets. Obviously the decision came very late and it puts me in a very difficult position, but this is life and I have to move forward. I already moved forward and that's why we decided to announce it; so I can relieve this pressure and just focus on these last two races to try to give the very best."
However, Perez admitted the timing of the decision could see him leave Formula One.
"If I don't find the right option for my career then maybe I will look for something else, but the aim is to look for something good with a good team that can give me the opportunity to win races."
Perez also said he didn't feel there was much more he or the team could have done this season with an uncompetitive car.
"I always tried to look after the team. I think there were situations this year when the team was under so much pressure because we are McLaren, we have one of the biggest budgets and with the season we've just had you can imagine the amount of pressure. So it was pressure on me, on Jenson, on Martin, on everyone at the team. I think the most important thing was for everyone to be together and I think we did pretty well. We all as a team - it's what makes me feel proud of my team - we always stayed together and I think that was crucial for such a difficult year."

Man wanted on gun charges arrested in driveway of his home
Police advised to "be on the lookout" for a Rugby Road man found the suspect in a vehicle in his own driveway at 10:50 p.m. Thursday, and arrested him on felony gun charges.
Antoine Sanders, 32, was charged with second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, third-degree criminal possession of a weapon and fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, all felonies, as well as second-degree obstructing governmental administration and resisting arrest.
When officers arrived, Sanders was behind the wheel of a 2010 Honda and, although he identified himself, he refused to follow an officer's commands, rolled up the vehicle's window and got out of the car on the passenger's side with a woman, Northwest District police said.
After a struggle, police handcuffed Sanders and recovered a small amount of marijuana and a loaded gun that was stolen from Lincoln City, N.C., on May 22, 2012, police said.
Sanders also had been convicted of criminal possession of a weapon in October of 2012, police added.

That's just my point. We hear so many complaints about what boxing has become, but the only way things MIGHT change for the better is if fans make it so that it stops being lucrative. I say boycott until boxing is the sport it once was. I know, people would have to turn away in droves for a long time for any of these changes to happen and this is just wishful thinking but, for the most part, I refuse to watch fighters that don't try to become lineal or Ring champions and only go for one alphabet belt. If they win all 4 majors, then I might start to watch them as well. Other than that, I might watch a newer boxer that gets a lot of knockouts.

i would say that the general public threw its arms into the air and gave up on boxing when the ibc was investigated by the federal government and brought to trial and was indicted on numerous charges. After the public learned of the fixed fights and monopoly that the ibc had on the game along with all of the shady people involved they just said its fixed and walked away. The dismantling of the ibc certainly helped to clean up the game yet the stigma of the 40s-50s of a crooked business always stuck. For years it has stood with little integrity in the publics eyes.
get rid of 60 or so of the bull**** world titles and boxing might not resemble a 3-ringed circus as it is percieved now by john q public.

I'm 36 just like the author of this thread and I can relate to what he's saying. When people talk about boxing it is just either Mayweather or Pacman. When I think back on my youth this is a sad state, Yes, Mayweather and Pac are good. But, where's the Tyson's, the Leonard's, the Hearns, the Chavez's(Although we do have JC jr.), the Whitaker's, the Hagler's, the Duran's, the "young" Holyfield's, the Holmes etc. We have 2 superstar boxers who are basically just "little" guys. It's pathetic!! I'm not even much of a fan of either one, myself. I think if we had more boxing coverage like we did in the '70's and '80's we would have more exposure to young talent. Boxing would for sure become hot again. HBO and other networks need to focus on the whole sport rather than just 2 famous boxers.

Empowering deserving military families with educational support and opportunities.
Billy Horschel claimed his first PGA Tour victory by tying the course record eight under par-64 to win the Zurich Classic. The 26-year old began the final day two strokes back of the lead and wasted little time catching the leaders, carding four birdies on the front nine for a 32. Continuing his red hot play, Horschel made consecutive birdies at 10, 11, and 12 to race to the top of the leaderboard.
Dropping a stroke at the 15th, Billy rebounded with a birdie at the following hole to keep the lead. Needing a birdie at the par five final hole to wrap up the victory, Horschel drained a 27 foot birdie bid and exploded into emotion at the realization that he is now a PGA Tour winner.
Horschel relied on FJ ICON MyJoys and StaSof throughout his breakthrough performance.

What a great performance by Horschel today. 8 birdies and wins on the final hole with that 8th bird. He has been close 3 times in the recent past and today he did it. And now I beleive that we are going to see a lot more of Mr. Horschel in the winners circle in the coming months.
Wonderful victory for Billy H. Congrats on his first win. I would've worn the Blue and White MyJoys Icons with that outfit.
Fabulous 8 Birdie win for BH & Team FootJoy ! Congrats...Those MyJoys & StaSofs were full of magical energy for sure ! And that Shoe Count isn't to shabby either.....
Very impressive display of total concentration. FJ wins again.
Great way to record your first win ! Great looking shoes ! Congrats Billy and Footjoy :)

DDi gets new loan agreement
Post a comment
DDi Corp., Anaheim, Calif., today announced that its principal operating subsidiary, Dynamic Details Inc., has successfully reached an agreement to amend its senior credit facility, effective June 28.
The amendment, which covers $73 million in outstanding term loans and a $50 million revolving credit facility, either waives or resets the financial convenants through December 31, 2003 and establishes two new covenants, one related to liquidity and the other related to minimum revenues.
The amendment did not change the interest rate spread nor the repayment schedule for the outstanding term loans, which mature between July 2004 and April 2005, but did reduce the revolving credit facility to $50 million from $75 million.
At May 31, DDi Corp. had $54 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and $12.5 million in restricted cash for interest payments relating to its $100 million, 6.25% convertible subordinated note offering, which closed on April 2, 2002.
In addition, the EMS company had no amounts outstanding under its $50 million revolving credit facility and had $1.2 million reserved against the facility for letters of credit, it said.
"We are pleased with the outcome of the discussions that weinitiated with JPMorgan Chase Bank and our bank syndicate," the company said in a released statement. "Their willingness to provide us with flexibility during a protracted, soft end market illustrates the strength of our ongoing relationship with the loan syndicate and its support for DDi Corp. The amendment to the credit facility should provide us with the financial flexibility to sustain our current operations in this challenging economic environment."
DDi said the June quarter is in-line with prior guidance of net sales of $60 million to $65 million and a net loss of 10 cents per share to 15 cents per share, excluding any non-recurring charges.

Dedham School Committee recently signed a $168,000 contract with Michael Welch, who will be taking over as the new superintendent.
Welch, 50, was the board�s top choice of three finalists to succeed retiring Superintendent June Doe, starting July 1.
After 14 years as a principal, including five in Newton South High School and most recently nine in Framingham High School, Welch said he's ready for a more influential role.
"I�m honored and humbled to be the next superintendent in Dedham and I really appreciate your vote of confidence," Welch said at a May 7 meeting. "I hope that I can live up to the high standards that June Doe has established here and has consistently maintained."
In other business, the School Committee voted unanimously to file a substitute motion at Town Meeting to indefinitely postpone warrant Article 38, which would authorize the Board of Selectmen to grant a resident a license to expand his Hillside Road driveway into a portion of Riverdale Elementary School�s property.
"With the agreement of Mr. Engdahl, we�ve decided to request indefinite postponement of warrant Article 38 to develop a policy around abutter land transfers," Chairman Jennifer Barsamian said. "We have quite a few abutters."
Mark Engdahl, a Precinct 2 Town Meeting member and former selectman, was hoping to move the fence on the right side of Lot 26 on Hillside Road eight feet to the first post on the school�s walking gate.
According to Engdahl, he is forced to park his vehicle on the street because his driveway is too narrow. He said at an April 16 meeting that the easement would allow him to expand his driveway.
Engdahl will seek Town Meeting approval once the new policy is complete.
Town Meeting will be held at 7 p.m. May 19 at Dedham High School, 140 Whiting Avenue.

Exchanging Debt for Health in Africa: Lessons from Ten Years of Debt-for-Development Swaps
Of the dozen or so issues on the agenda when the Group of Seven held its annual meeting in Cologne in June, 1999, few captured the attention of the world as much as debt relief for the poorest and most indebted nations. In the past half-decade, wide-ranging and active support has developed for reducing the debt owed by poor countries to banks, governments, and multilateral institutions in the developed world. Most proposals for debt relief have also called for more resources to be invested in improving the welfare of the poorest people, often through direct investment in social programs of the savings generated by debt relief. The purpose of this paper is to describe and assess one feasible approach to debt relief in sub-Saharan Africa: the debt-for-health exchange. Following up on proposals recently put forward by several international organizations and governments, it presents and assesses the past decade of experience with transactions that involve the exchange of poor country debt for a commitment to invest local resources in a social good, such as environmental protection, child health, or education. From this experience, it draws a set of lessons for designing debt-for-health exchanges for sub-Saharan Africa. The lessons provide guidance on how exchanges should be structured and emphasize the importance of transparency and accountability in managing the debt savings funds.

Tyan Trinity KT400 Motherboard Review
This content was originally featured on Amdmb.com and has been converted to PC Perspective's website. Some color changes and flaws may appear.It has been some time since we have heard from Tyan in regards to a single processor motherboard for the AMD Athlon XP processors. Until now Tyan has been content with being the leading manufacturer and designer of Athlon MP multi-processor motherboards with their extensive line of Thunder K7 and Tiger MP series of motherboards.
Perhaps seeing a new niche market coming into place with the release of the 333 MHz front-side bus and the addition of the Barton processor to the AMD lineup, Tyan has once again made an attempt to enter the enthusiast market. What's more, where Tyan used to be known for their very bare-bones setups and with meager options, the new Trinity KT400 board is changing that by offering one of the better KT400 feature sets we have seen here at Amdmb.com.

This phone although some might say looks very nice, really is not. It is far too tiny for comfort. The amount of times I have lost it in my pocket does not warrant the novelty of the size. Also when you want to play the games on this phone, the buttons really are far too small. This is emphasised when you want to make a phone call. You end up calling the wrong number as you tend to press two buttons at once. The phone is rather expensive and i feel that it really is not worth it. There really are so many more phones on the market now that are far better in total.
Well, what can be said about this phone. It is absolutely brilliant, it's a revolution. In looking at the aesthetics of the T28, you really can not find a better looking phone. It is very stylish and is a phone that you will be proud to own. It also has the functions, such as vibration and voice activation. These can come in handy when you are in a meeting or something. The phone though is a little pricey, which is the only downside.
Robbie williams has once again been voted the sexiest man. Though it is clear that all this has not gone straight to his head as his is producing some masterpieces. After leaving Take that, he released some very well selling songs. He is now teaming up with Kylie Minogue to produce a very well choriographed film. This i am sure will be a very popular song that people will not wait to get their hands on. Robbie williams does not fix to one specific music category, must if you had to, it would be pop.
The corrs are a brilliant group made out of 3 sisters and a brother, which one would have thought is a very unusual situation. They concentrate their pieces on pop mostly, but there is definitley an element of classical. Their first album forgiven not forgotten was the make or break album, and it was clear that they achieved what they wanted. This first album was the making for them. They have not stopped and are now producing vry modern, popular songs such as breathless.
Well, Billie Piper is a very impressive young lady, she has only just turned 18 in the past couple of months. She solely concentrates on the pop side of the music and often appears on Top of the Pops in the UK. She has produced some very impressive music in the past, however is yet to establish herself among the Britney Spears of our time. Yet she is a British gal and is yet to go very far, so good luck to her.
The backstreet boys a couple of years ago, were a very successfull band with a vast amount of number one hits, and that is not just in the USA but here also. They although this success, recently just willowed out for a little. They concentrate solely on pop tunes to impress the public. An impressive recent song for them was The One. This was very successful here in the England. There are five members in the band that concentrate to the performance of the band.
All saints have been around for a very long time and have produced a number of hit songs. These songsa consist of Lady Marmalade, Pure Shores and Black Coffee. Of which the latest one, Black Coffee is very addictive and full of tune. The singles, in CD form cost £3.99 and cassette is about £1.99-£2.99. However all saints are a very good girl band and their albums consist of many superb songs that most people would enjoy. The range of music that they cover is usually pop music but it varies very slightly.
This game was THE game to have with the Nintendo 64. A couple of years on it still is. It is such a brilliant game. It is 1-4 players, so you are able to play it with your friends. The game has so many different levels and areas to discover that it seems as if the game never ends. It costs about £49.99 and i feel is well worth it. It is one of the best games around and i am sure it will stay like this for a long time to go.
This game had a lot publicity when it came out. It involves a snowboarder travelling down a slope. The difficulty level is not very variable on this game, however it is still a little addictive. This game is not very good when playing by yourself, but if you have friends round then it becomes a whole lot of fun. It is not too expensive at about £30.00 . The game is able to allow for 1-2 players. I feel that it would probably be best to wait until a new snowboarding game comes out.
Well, this console has been around for a very long time. Although having said that, there have been a number of modifications to it, such as the colour gameboy. However, the games on the gameboy are priced at around £19.99 obviously depending on whether it is a new game or not. The game play is still very good and the gameboy has the added function of being portable. It is well worth while to consider the newer version of this console.
This programme has to be one of the worst things that has ever arrived on the screen of my t.v.. That says something about this. The acting is not very convincing and the script although meant to be funny, really is not. I can't explain more of what a waste of time this is. It is on 9:00pm on channel 2. The humour is very sick and repulsive. I do not recommend this programme to any one. This is waste of broadcasting and should not be shown.
wow, apart from looking stunning, she is also a good actress. I am a regular viewer, and find that each and every episode gets even better. The characters are brilliant and what i feel stands out about Ally Mcbeal, is that it is so different to the normal comedy/soaps. It is on at 10:00pm on channel 4.The programme lasts about 45 minutes, (I have a very poor sense of time) Although it is a little science fiction, it still deals with some real life problems. Its brilliant, watch it if you can.
Knight Rider has been around for a very long time and i feel personally that it has far exceeded its sell by date. When i was younger i used to watch it, however nowadays the programmes produced are far more detailed. Knight Rider is a lonely character as it is always him who saves the world from evil. However some might say that it is his car that seems to do all the saving. This is the car that can speak, respond to commands and maneouvre itself. A very clever car!! However it really isn't. It is a man's voice behind the dash board. Thrilling huh!!
Neighbours is on everyday of the week at 5:35pm apart from Saturday and Sunday. Neighbours is very addictive and is very good to watch. Some of the characters are exceptionally nice to look at, and there is always something going on. Neighbours has just had a break for 2 weeks due to the olympics. However I am thankful that it is now back on. Although the same problem with soaps occurs with neighbours, that is that is does become a little repetative after a while.
I have been watching eastenders for longer than i wish to remember. It is not only very addictove but also very interesting. You get to know the characters of the 'Square' and feel that you are part of the soap. Although generally i have to admit that some of the storylines are a little tedious, there are a number of great ones that have been and gone in the past. Such as the death of Steve's old girlfriend. Eastenders is on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. (The time varies from 7:30pm - 8:00pm).

Linda Donelson pulled into her driveway at six o'clock on a wintry Monday evening in March. She'd just picked up her seven-year-old grandson, Caleb, from daycare, and he was eager to see his mom.
But before Linda could open the garage and go in the house, she noticed a piece of blue paper taped to the door. When she first saw the crest for the City of Aurora, she wondered what the officials wanted this time. They'd already required Linda and her husband, Everett, to replace their fence abutting Hampden Avenue earlier in the year. But the handwritten note simply told her to call a Denver number regarding her daughter, Sherri Majors. Another blue note with a similar message was taped to the front door.
Thinking Sherri had been in an accident, Linda rushed inside and dialed the number. The line was busy. After several more frantic attempts, a man's voice finally answered. It was the Denver coroner's office.
Linda begged the man for information about what had happened to her daughter, but he'd just started his shift and didn't know anything about a Sherri Majors. A few minutes later, the man called back: Sherri's body was in the morgue.
Fifteen minutes later, a Denver police detective called and told Linda that Sherri's body had been found that morning in an alley off 24th Street between Blake and Walnut. She had been beaten and strangled to death.
It took Denver police just two months to identify a suspect -- 51-year-old truck driver Chester Leroy Todd -- and to issue a national warrant for his arrest. But that was back in May 1996, and the case has since gone cold. After agonizing over their daughter's murder for seven years, however, the Donelsons are finally feeling some hope. A private investigator they met through Families of Homicide Victims and Missing Persons (FOHVAMP) says he's hot on the trail of Chester Todd -- and may nab the fugitive before Christmas.
Sherri Majors most likely met Chester Todd for the first time on the night of March 16, 1996.
Sherri had asked her parents to watch her three sons -- Caleb was seven at the time, and her twins, Mitchell and Joel, were five -- so she could spend the weekend with her boyfriend, Brian. She needed a break, some time off, and she and Brian needed to work on their relationship. The 27-year-old had moved back in with her parents two years earlier, after she and the boys' father had divorced, and she was struggling to support her children on her own.
Even though her parents didn't like Brian -- "He was abusive," Linda says -- the Donelsons agreed to care for their grandsons.
On Saturday night, Sherri and Brian went to the Happy Chinaman, a Commerce City restaurant and pool hall. But they got into an argument, and Sherri demanded to go home. Brian refused to take her. Upset, Sherri walked down the block to the Town Line Pub, where she called various friends for a ride. The Donelsons say Sherri probably had too much pride to call them. "She knew we didn't like Brian," Linda says. "In some ways, I'm glad she didn't call us, because I don't know how we could have lived with ourselves if we'd have said 'No.'"
Sherri didn't have much luck reaching anyone that night. Her friend Fred came home late to find a message on his machine, but by then, Sherri had probably already left with Chester Todd, a Town Line regular who had overheard her phone calls and offered her a ride. She had little reason to be leery of Todd, an older man with a kind face, particularly since he was a trucker. In her family, someone who drives a big rig is someone who can be trusted.
But on the morning of Sunday, March 17, an employee at a manufacturing company on Blake Street discovered Sherri's snow-covered body. When the Denver police responded, they couldn't find anything -- Sherri's body was concealed behind a cement barrier and visible only from a garden-level window inside the building -- and left. When the employee returned to work on Monday morning, Sherri's body was still there, and he called the cops again. This time, they found her.
The Donelsons and their grandsons were expecting to see Sherri that evening. Caleb, in particular, who was very close to his mother, was excited for her return. "I half expected her to call me Monday afternoon, because she'd do that; she'd call and ask what I wanted her to make for dinner, because she'd get home from work first," Linda says.
Of course, no such call came.
As soon as Linda and Everett learned that their daughter had been killed, Everett began having chest pains and had to be hospitalized for the night. The Donelsons decided not to tell the boys anything until the next day, when they could think more clearly. However, Mitchell, now thirteen, says he knew something was going on. He remembers seeing his relatives crying, but he thought it was about money.
After Everett was released from the hospital the following day, the boys' father, Jeff Majors, stopped by the Donelsons' house to comfort his sons and help break the news to them. Caleb, who is now fifteen, has a hard time talking about his mother's death, but the twins say rehashing it helps. "I started crying," Mitchell says of his reaction when he heard the news.
"Joel ran to his bed and hid under the covers," remembers Linda.
Right after the murder, the company Linda had been working for moved its operations to Indiana, and she used her severance money and time off to launch her own pursuit. She bought a computer and e-mailed information about Todd to a fugitive Web site, then sent a letter to America's Most Wanted, which aired a segment about Sherri's murder in August 1996. The show's host, John Walsh, said that the five-foot-ten, 200-pound Todd frequents casinos, plays guitar and might try to pass himself off as a musician in clubs. Linda taped the show and sent copies to weigh stations across the country. The popular television program ran Todd's photo a few more times until July 1999.
"Early on, I was consumed with finding him," Linda says.
When detectives learned from other bar patrons that Todd lived out of his truck, Everett suggested that one of his relatives make an announcement over their CB radio asking other truckers to be on the lookout for him. But he says the detective told him not to interfere.
Todd was reportedly headed west with a load of meat in his refrigerated trailer, but when he hadn't shown up three days after the delivery was due, the company expecting the shipment offered $500 over the airwaves for whoever found the missing trailer. Two hours later, both the rig and the trailer were spotted abandoned at a truck stop in Sioux City, Iowa. Sherri's blood, hair and an earring were found in the trailer.
Greg Tyner has personal reasons for wanting to see killers behind bars. When Greg was just eighteen, his father shot his mother in the head. His dad evaded police for a while, but he was eventually captured and sent to prison, where he died.
Shortly after that, Tyner and his wife divorced, and he began having to track down his two children, because their mother continually moved around with them. He discovered that his children were being molested by two of his ex-wife's boyfriends, and by the time he could get them out of harm's way, he knew he was going to make a career out of finding bad guys.
He became a private investigator in California, where he worked white-collar-type cases for several years. In 1996, he came back to Colorado, his home state. It was a fortuitous move for his crime-fighting career.
One evening this past spring, Tyner came across www.unresolvedhomicides.org, the Web site for Families of Homicide Victims and Missing Persons (FOHVAMP), a two-year-old Colorado nonprofit. As he scanned the site, which reads like an FBI Most Wanted list, but with victims instead of fugitives, he was simultaneously impressed and appalled. He'd never seen such an organized group of civilians united to solve cold cases, but he was shocked and angered by the number that were unresolved. Eighty victims, ranging in age from just one year to sixty, are currently listed on the Web site, and students at the University of Colorado at Boulder have identified another 400 unsolved homicides from the past three decades (see "Student Aid"). A study conducted by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation found that between the years 1997 and 2001, 245 homicides out of 816 -- or 30 percent -- went unsolved in the state, slightly better than the national average of 36 percent, according to the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports. Last year 16,204 murders were committed in this country.
Once Tyner realized how big the problem was, he knew he had to help. So he called FOHVAMP's executive director, Howard Morton, and offered his services free of charge. Morton was naturally skeptical of the offer, so he called Tyner's references. "They all checked out," he says.
Tyner could understand the hesitation. "Being in the business myself, I hate to admit it, but there are more shysters than not who will prey on the vulnerable," says Tyner, whose practice consists largely of investigating cheating spouses and embezzlers.
The State of Colorado doesn't regulate private investigators, even though the Professional Private Investigators Association of Colorado (PPIAC) has been trying for years to convince the legislature to license the industry. Lawmakers turned down a bill last year that would have introduced standards to the profession after numerous private investigators opposed it. "Anyone can call himself a private investigator in Colorado," notes PPIAC president Rick Johnson, who is unfamiliar with Tyner's work. (Tyner is not a PPIAC member.) "The buyer really has to beware in this state."
But in California, where private investigators must meet strict criteria in order to obtain the requisite license, Tyner says there are "still a bunch of knuckleheads, so a lot of regulation doesn't necessarily help."
Because Tyner's background checked out, Morton decided to make a deal with the private eye: He would initially take a few cases without pay, and the families would cover his expenses, such as long-distance calls and mileage, if they could afford it.
A few families agreed, and Tyner recently began looking into some of the crimes, including the Littleton bowling-alley murders (employees Erin Golla and James Springer Jr. and bowler Robert Zajac were shot to death at the AMF Broadway Lanes in January 2002) and the case of Michael Reichert, who was fatally struck on the head in October 2000 in a Colfax parking lot. But since there is already a suspect in the Sherri Majors case, he's focused most of his efforts over the past few months on finding Chester Todd.
Shortly after Sherri's death, Linda and Everett Donelson joined Parents of Murdered Children, where they met Morton, whose eighteen-year-old son, Guy, was murdered while hitchhiking between Flagstaff and Phoenix.
In March 2001, Howard and his wife, Virginia, decided to create a local answer to the national support group. So along with Lieurance and Shirley Sullivan, whose daughter Polly was murdered on Christmas Day 1998 but whose killer remains at large ("Silent Night," December 23, 1999), they looked into forming a nonprofit for families like theirs. By the time FOHVAMP became official, in October 2001, the group had thirty members. Now there are 132.
To join FOHVAMP, a family has to have a loved one who has been missing or dead for two years with no resolution and must have a Colorado connection, meaning either the victim was from this state, disappeared here, was found here or has family members residing here. Members don't pay dues, but they are encouraged to make contributions, which, along with a U.S. Justice Department grant, help maintain the organization's Web site.
But for all their efforts and organization, the Web site has yet to result in any arrests, and Morton is not even sure whether any good tips have come in. Basically, the group acts as a conduit to the police. "We're not trying to be Dick Tracy," Morton explains. "We're just trying to generate leads."
But the fact that the Web site is getting hits -- more than 12,000 people have visited it since June, when the organization started keeping track -- helps the families. "Its shows them that something's being done," Morton says.
As far as the police are concerned, Sherri Majors's case is solved: They know who did it and told Linda and Everett that when Todd slips up someday, they'll get him.
"Do I have a detective working full-time on it? No. I have eleven detectives that handle between 55 and 100 homicides every year, so we can't concentrate full-time on any one case, but we do periodic reviews of cases," says Lieutenant Jon Priest, commander of the Denver Police Department's homicide unit. "Nobody might be working on Chester Todd this week or this month, but we have a nation of detectives looking for him electronically.
"I know that's not particularly comforting to the family," he adds. "They don't care about the 100 other cases out there; they care about theirs. But we solve cases that are five, ten, fifteen years old all the time. We have forty warrants out right now for people who are at large. One dates back to 1968. We don't stop working on cases simply because we get new ones."
Right now, Greg Tyner, not the DPD, is the one giving the Donelsons hope for closure. But like so many families looking into a loved one's cold case, Tyner and the Donelsons have had to start from scratch to find Sherri's killer because the police department is reluctant to release its investigation files.
"The Denver Police Department has been thwarting my investigation," Tyner says. "The police won't give me or the family access to the file. I've had to start from the ground up, but a lot of the witnesses aren't around anymore. And they won't verify any information with me.
"I've called them with leads, but they won't call back to say whether they've followed up on any of them," he continues. "I don't think they want this case solved outside of their department. I think their biggest fear is that I'll bring this guy in and they'll look bad. But I couldn't give a crap who finds him. I'd just like to see him behind bars before Christmas."
Priest, however, says the police can't just hand over information to a private investigator. "We have an obligation to maintain the integrity of the case filing by limiting the exposure of it to the public," he says. "We have to protect the rights of the defendant, even though the family looks at it like 'Fry the bastard.' We can't just sic some private investigator on this guy so we can bring him in, because that would make him our agent, and then he'd be restricted by the same guidelines as the police department."
For example, if a private investigator working in concert with a police department does something illegal to capture a fugitive or to obtain evidence, it could compromise the arrest or cause that evidence to be inadmissible in court.
"A lot of times, private investigators can eliminate and generate leads for us. We can certainly say we have looked into something, but we don't need to share stuff with them to satisfy their curiosity," Priest continues. "It's not that we're being uncooperative; it's that we have to weigh every decision very carefully."
Despite the lack of information from the police department, Tyner has gotten many leads on Todd, who goes by at least two different names and has been married twice. But the fugitive lives a transient lifestyle that makes pinpointing his exact whereabouts difficult. "He's one of the hardest types of people to find. Even the most private people sign their names to stuff, like vehicle registration, insurance and rental agreements. Someone who can evade those things for so long has no ties to society. He's been in various areas of the country for up to a year, but he keeps on the move, staying in motels," Tyner says.
However, Tyner believes sketches of a suspect in two East Coast murders match Todd's description, and he has reason to believe that Todd killed two women before Sherri and two more after her. Priest says if that's true, his department doesn't know anything about it.
Tyner has narrowed down some locations where Todd might be staying but doesn't want to divulge them publicly lest the details jeopardize his hunt. He will, however, say that he's getting closer every day. If local police won't arrest Todd once Tyner figures out where he is, someone will. Throughout his many years of investigative work, Tyner has built up a network of colleagues on whom he can call when the time comes to apprehend Todd. "I don't care if he gets whacked on the head, shoved in a trunk and dropped off at a police station," Tyner says. "He needs to stand trial."
And if the man who killed Sherri is, in fact, Chester Todd, it would be at least his second time committing murder. Todd was convicted in 1967 of shooting a sailor to death in Illinois and was sentenced to more than thirty years in the Joliet Correctional Center, a maximum-security prison. He was paroled after serving fifteen years.
For now, Tyner is happy to be back doing what he loves most. "I made a really good living from investigating white-collar crime, but it was the important cases like these that I didn't have time for. I know what it's like to have someone you love taken from you, but I can't fathom how you move on when the person who did it is still out there," he says. "I'm doing it now because if the police won't, who will?"
Howard Morton is trying to raise money so that FOHVAMP can employ Greg Tyner full-time next year. If Tyner can break a case like Sherri's, Morton thinks individuals and foundations will be more inclined to donate.
FOHVAMP is also planning to put up billboards featuring up to a dozen specific cases in the hope of generating more leads. A portion of a $25,000 U.S. Attorney's grant will make it possible to post rewards for information leading to an arrest in those cases. But before any billboards go up, Morton needs to figure out what contact number to provide. Last November, Michael Reichert's family put up a billboard on Colfax, near the scene of his murder, offering $50,000 to anyone who could crack the case. But after six months went by with no tips, they removed it.
Morton thinks he knows what the problem was: The billboard directed people to call Denver Metro Crimestoppers, a nonprofit that accepts anonymous tips but doesn't cover the line 24 hours a day. "You get a recording after regular business hours," Morton says. "No one who wants to remain anonymous is going to leave a message on a machine!"
Denver Police detective Steven Antuña, who acts as a liaison between the Crimestoppers board of directors and police agencies, says he understands Morton's frustration but explains that no one ever calls the tip line between midnight and 6 a.m. Tipsters, he notes, "sleep when the rest of us sleep."
However, Antuña acknowledges that boardmembers are discussing the possibility of expanding the hours beyond the current 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. period when he, a cadet and a sergeant take calls. Although the Denver Police Department and Crimestoppers are separate entities, the department helps staff the line and is trying to supply it with additional officers. Beyond that, Crimestoppers would have to hire an answering service to take calls or enlist the help of volunteers.
Still, the fact that no tips at all came in on the Reichert case surprised Antuña. "I thought it was unusual because of the amount of the reward; $50,000 is a lot of money," he says. "Maybe the only person who knows what happened is the suspect."
While Crimestoppers tries to figure out whether to expand its hours, Morton is trying to find hope for families who have had theirs dashed too many times. He's applying for more grants and would someday like to see every state have its own convicted-murderer registry. "You can see if a convicted sex offender lives next door to you, but not a murderer," he says.
And Tyner has created a brochure for FOHVAMP, which he dedicated to his mother, to help families continue their own investigations. In "How to Manage Your Own Cold Case," Tyner cautions members about hiring psychics, provides a fee structure for private investigators so they know about fair pricing, and offers tips on how to obtain records related to the case.
The Donelsons, however, are just trying to live their lives as best they can.
Sitting in her immaculate Aurora home on a recent Tuesday night with her husband and twin grandsons, Linda flips through old photo albums. There's Sherri in her sister's wedding, wearing a lilac bridesmaid dress. Sherri standing with her hands on her hips, her blond hair framing her pretty face, Farrah Fawcett style. Sherri with her beloved dog, Princess, who bears a striking resemblance to her sons' new mutt, whom they also named Princess. And Linda's favorite: Sherri in a swimming pool holding baby Caleb.
Linda and Everett never thought they'd be raising teenagers at this stage of their lives, but the boys' father isn't very involved, and they wanted to make sure that Caleb and the twins remembered their mother.
"I get disappointed and angry with the police about why they can't do more. Maybe the case isn't high-profile enough for them," Linda says. "We were watching something on television recently about the Elizabeth Smart case, and Caleb said, 'Those people are rich; that's why the police helped them.' You take a common Joe and Jane like Everett and I, and not much gets done."

"We were very fortunate to have had the detective we had," Everett points out. "She laid a really good case and got the warrant, and so many of the cases in FOHVAMP don't have that. We got to bury our daughter, and there are a lot of people who don't get to do that, either. Everything's been done in our case but finding the guy. It just gives you a big old pit in the stomach."
But he and Linda aren't getting their hopes up too high. They've gone down that road before. "I'm just going to let Greg handle it. My purpose is to raise these three boys. I appreciate what Greg and Howard are doing, and I pray something comes of it, but Chester Todd has been out there for seven years, and I'm not going to suddenly focus on finding him, because if I did that, I'd be back to the place I was right after Sherri died, and I'm not going to do that to myself."
Although Linda is more adamant about seeing her daughter's killer captured, she has mixed feelings about enduring a trial. She wonders how she'd cope if Todd was caught and then acquitted. "Then it would be over, and we'd really have no closure."
But Mitchell is looking forward to the day he can face his mom's killer in court: "I want him to see the kids whose mother he took away."

I just found disc 1 & 2 of Gta IV that I've had since 09 or whatever. Never had a good enough pc to run it, and now I finally do. Anyway, disc one is covered in tiny lines. None of the scratches look deep tho. Just looks like its been slid around in a junk drawer for years. Disc 2 however is immaculate. So hopefully disc 1 is the install, and it works. Do you play on disc 2?
Thanks guys,
Old Gta IV disc

You need both discs for installing the game and disc 1 in the dvd drive to play. It is possible to resurface a disc if it is damaged. A dvd rental place might offer the service.

I am SO HAPPY that I got the last ounce of this from Stacy this week. It will be hard to stretch it until more is available.
As I said before… smooth and sweet, like no other tea I've tasted. To me, it is a rounder, more luscious tea than the Mi Xian black.

2005 Nissan Titan - Titanic Power
Nissan's Big Boy Gets Blown
America's most powerful base V-8 engine is securely mounted in Nissan's fullsize Titan pickup. At 305 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque, the 5.6L is no slouch, especially when the long, skinny pedal is mashed to the floor and all those horses are unleashed. Bolt-on aftermarket performance parts can exponentially add incredible horsepower to this potent powerplant; however, nothing adds more power than a supercharger. After 13 months of extensive research and development, Stillen released its own supercharger unit, complete with electronics that add serious cajones to the Titan.
Based on the Eaton-style twin-rotor system, the Stillen supercharger replaces the entire intake manifold and includes an additional eight injectors just for the blower. An intercooler mounted inside the casing adds even more power to the unit. It comes equipped with Stillen electronics, a new mounting plate, a serpentine belt, a coolant pump for the cooler, a high-volume fuel pump, and every nut and bolt required for the installation.
We arrived at Stillen with a 2005 Nissan Titan donor truck, strapped it on the dyno, and the stock truck promptly layed down 276 hp and 334 lb-ft of torque. After watching the install with cameras firing, the Stillen supercharger-equipped Titan wowed all of us as the dyno quickly ran up to 390 hp and 415 lb-ft of torque, a huge 114hp improvement. Retailing at $5,995, the Stillen kit is an all-inclusive, out-of-the-box power adder. Available with a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty, the supercharger is guaranteed to make power safely. Read on as we show you an abbreviated version of the install. As always, this story is an illustrated version of the installation, and Stillen's instructions should be used and followed to properly install the supercharger.

Might and Magic 3: Isles of Terra Sound&Music
Just started replaying this gem after 20 years. Since I don`t have the real Roland device I figured I should get the best possible sound&music combination via software emulation. Been searching the net for whole weekend and found some instructions and info on various forums but none seem to work properly.
Here is a simple guide for best sound&music you can get in Might and Magic 3 beside the real Roland device. This has been tested on windows 8 64 bit and Windows 7 32 bit and works flawlessly. Beautiful music very close to real device like in this video. :p
1. Download and install the latest version of Taewoong DOSBox SVN (already includes Munt software) http://ykhwong.x-y.net/
2. Download and extract the MT-32 and CM-32L ROM control sets (https://mega.co.nz/#!O8xk3bYa!X_qwcn…XAE24wDwD5OxA4).
3. For Might and Magic 3 it's best to use the CM-32L ROMs rather than the MT-32 ROMs. so put CM32L_PCM.ROM and CM32L_CONTROL.ROM into main DOSBox folder.
4. Go to your DOSBox folder. Under "TOOLS" folder click on "Run DOSBox configuration" file and scroll down to check "[midi]" section. Make sure you have this setting correct "mididevice=mt32".
5. Mount your M&M3 folder in DOSBox and run install.exe. Select option 1 for graphics and option 1 (Roland LAPC-1) for sound. Save and run the game. Use CTRL+F12 to speed the game if it is too slow.
Does this work for like M&M 4?
Check out this link:
Yes this procedure works on M&M4, 5 and World of Xeen but you won`t get the best possible music with MT-32 emulation as these games use Sound canvas device for music. Much better sounding but sound effects are weird with sound canvas emulation so overall I would still prefer to use MT-32.
Some guy on RPG Codex forums found quite good solution for sound canvas emulation http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index…2#post-2801605
Mt-32 emulation
Soundblaster pro emulation
Thanks but your method doesn't work at home.
At the step 4
"Run DOSBox and type in "mixer /listmidi"."
I have only
0 microsoft GS wavetable synth
1 sb xfi synth a
2 sb xfi synth B
I downloaded daum version dosbox and I copy *.rom in dosbox folder.
I don't know how have MT-32 Synth Emulator in listmidi
Yes you are right. This was a leftover from my base DOSbox setup with separate munt install. If you use Daum then there is no need for this step. I have updated the guide in first post. I just reinstalled the whole thing on Windows 8 64 bit and it works flawlessly. Please let me know if it works for you.
The problem is that with World of xeen (M&M 4 +5), game crash if I use CM32L_PCM. and CM32L_control.rom or Mt32_PCM.rom and MT32.control.rom.
I select Roland LAPC/MT32 in game setup
Have you tested with world of xeen?
I have tried all version dosbox daum since one year and same problem. Without these rom files, game doesn't crash but some sound are very very bad (open door song is like phone ringing).
I have tried to send a mail at creator of dosbox daum but I never have an answer.
I have just tried the same setup for World of Xeen for couple of minutes and Roland emulation is working without problems. I am using GOG version of the game at the moment. Where do you have crash problems? Immediately when starting the game or during gameplay?
You must choose Roland LAPC for music and sound blaster pro for speech.
Perhaps you should try Sound Canvas emulation for World of Xeen if you have problems with Roland. Follow this topic
I choose roland lapc.
I don't use gog version but original floppy (3"1/2)version (it's a french version but the only difference is the translation. The sound engine is the same) .

Artist-designer Andy Bartlett is putting the joy back into art with school children in Sussex.
Andy - otherwise known as Onnie Bucket from the way he used to say his name - was drafted in to Balcombe CE School last March.
Using his expertise and enthusiasm the pupils have been working on different art projects combined with their educational learning topics.
The result is a school building full of corridors and classrooms of bright murals that are the result of input from every pupils as well as staff and parents.
Head teacher Wendy Littlefair said initially the children expressed the greatest interest in graffiti and were taught how it was done as well as where graffiti was appropriate.
Andy and teaching staff then tapped into the pupils' fired-up enthusiasm and embarked on an online school art competition which led to the murals and a dinosaur project.
Wendy said the children helped choose the themes and subject matter for the murals and then watched as a blank wall in the reception area was transformed into an imagined view of the South Downs complete with animals representing the school teams – bears, bats, badgers and bees.
Later, while discussing safety in the school, Wendy said some of the youngest children said they felt nervous when going to the toilet, as to them the facilities were "large, dark and unfriendly".
Andy was asked to design artwork for both the boys' and girls' toilets and the whole school submitted ideas.
A selection panel made up of children chose the most popular themes and Andy set to work creating designs that combined them all.
Finally, under cover of dark, he transformed the toilets giving the children a surprise when they returned to discovered mermaids, turtles, clown fish and killer whales on the previously bare walls.
Andy, who had a job in the City before moving to Lindfield less than two years ago, said working with schoolchildren was the most "exciting" aspect of being an artist-designer.
"It's given me the opportunity to do something I have really wanted to do for a long time without it feeling like work," he said.
A gallery of the entries in the school art competition can be viewed on Andy's website at www.onniebucket.com by selecting the 'schools' menu tab and clicking 'The Great Outdoors Art Competition'.

An early memory is of waking my siblings at 6am on the day of a family picnic to Rouken Glen to warn if we did not get a move on the park would be full.
They said don't worry. Rouken Glen park is r eally big (140 acres). We would probably get in.
Let me advise that for most of next week Rouken Glen, in its temporary guise as the Electric Glen, will be full. You won't get in without a ticket. The woodland and water features of the park are being turned into a light show.
Loading article content
According to advance publicity, it will be a "complete sensory experience that intrigues all ages and piques all kinds of interests". See Giffnock? See getting your senses piqued?
Even without a light show, Rouken Glen was a magical place for those Easter Monday pilgrimages when I was a lad. It was so long ago we went by tram.
Mother made fairy cakes for the picnic. We took our own sugarolly water. There were corned beef sandwiches, a big outsider if you were lucky. The girl upstairs took her own toast. (She also took toast to the pictures.)
Easter eggs were rolled down the hill beside the boating pond, the broken decorated shells put into a matchbox for later use as a jigsaw. (We were poor but we were happy.)
On the boating pond you went for a trip on the penny launch. Like going doon the watter but shorter and cheaper. Better still, you could hire a rowing boat and take it to the other end of the pond and fill it with illicit passengers when the parkie wasn't looking. It was like the Dunkirk evacuation.
Voyages could be dangerous, especially the time Margaret Wilson removed the bung to let water out and the boat sank. There were wild swans which, as every child knew, would break your arm if you went too close.
The best fun was to be had down the dark recesses of the glen itself. Getting too close to waterfalls. Climbing steep ravines as a rite of passage and causing heart attacks in passing women who would exclaim: "Thae weans ur gonnae fa' aff an kill themsels."
We stayed in the park till dark. We would have stayed later if there had been a light show down the electric glen.

Figallo blow for Argentina
ARGENTINA will have to plan without tighthead prop Juan Figallo for Saturday's international against Ireland after his citing arising from their loss to France was upheld, writes Conor George.
Figallo was initially cited for 'striking with the head,' but that was recategorised as 'charging into a ruck or maul' and was deemed to be at the mid-range of IRB sanctions.
A suspension of three weeks was imposed on the player.

Internet traffic reports indicate that the majority of all data downloaded on the Internet is video from sites like Netflix and Hulu and Youtube.
Cable providers are increasingly worried about internet streaming eating into their market share.
They say Americans, especially young viewers -- teenagers -- are turning away from the TV screen and towards the ipad or computer screen.
But it turns out, that picture might not be so accurate. According to a new report, the plain old tube still takes up the majority of a teenagers' leisure time.
Here to talk with us in today's Mid-day Extra is Todd Juenger, senior analyst with Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., who wrote the report.

A group of mentored youth has received preliminary approval to shoot wild turkeys at a county open-space preserve.
The Board of Supervisors on Wednesday moved to allow firearms and archery equipment for the annual two-day, juniors-only hunt at Santa Ysabel East Preserve beginning in March. A maximum of 10 youngsters per day would be allowed to participate.
"I know that there are some philosophical differences in regards to hunting. Some people support hunting, some people don't," Supervisor Dianne Jacob said "There are philosophical differences about guns. Some people would like to ban all guns and other do not.
"But I think in this case we're not talking about a special interest other than the interest of kids."
The 3-2 vote — with Supervisors Ron Roberts and Pam Slater-Price dissenting — comes less than a year after a divided board opted to permit a similar youth hunt at William Heise County Park in Julian. The supervisors are scheduled to vote on the formal agreement next month.
Roberts maintained that he wasn't opposed to hunting or gun ownership. However, he said the proposal was "an assault on the definition of 'preserve.'" He said rule changes required to host the event amounted to establishing a hunting ranch on county property.
"We have legal agreements that establish that hunting will not be permitted and allowed on a preserve," Roberts said. "It makes me wonder why I support the acquisition of these things if we are going to get way off course."
He also warned that the number of event days and participants would increase significantly in the future.
The previously approved event was held last March without incident. Six children participated and brought home four turkeys.
Both proposals drew the ire of environmentalists and animal-rights activists. They took issue with children firing weapons on an open-space preserve as well as the impression it might give them that killing animals was something to be celebrated.
"The turkeys in these parks are proven to be anything but wild," said George Courser, representing the Back Country Coalition of Santa Ysabel. " … Killing the very animals that attract people to the park just doesn't really make sense."
Kath Rogers, programs director for the Animal Protection and Rescue League, said the youth hunt doesn't square with the purpose of the park and ignored public sentiment that wildlife should be protected.
Both board decisions were heralded as victories for local sportsmen who for years have sought to hone their hunting skills on expansive swathes of rural backcountry.
Wild turkeys were reintroduced into the county in 1993 when the Department of Fish and Game, San Diego Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation and Safari Club International freed 243 birds on the McCaw Ranch, Eagle Peak Ranch and Canta Rana Ranch.
Bob Fusco, president of the local chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation, said there are now more than 20,000 turkeys in the county.
Rather than a matter of population control, the upcoming event on March 17-18 is designed to expose youngsters to hunting on a small section of open space. The entire preserve would be closed off to the public during the hunt.
"These youngsters are sitting in a blind," Fusco said. "They aren't wandering around. And their mentor is at their shoulder."
Jacob also sought to draw a distinction between the open-space preserve and a county park. She said the city of San Diego for years has sanctioned a hunt at Lake Sutherland near Ramona.
"We're not opening the floodgates," she said. "We're talking about two days."
The agreement with the San Diego Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation will go before the board on Jan. 25.

Claims in a new book,'Ikea Moving to the Future' (Ikea på väg mot framtiden), about internal family friction have rocked the Kamprad family claims Göran Grosskopf, who is the chairman of the board of directors for the Ikea group.
He initially declined to comment on the findings in the book but has since added that the Kamprad family is "naturally extremely distressed and disappointed" over suggestions there is an internal power struggle.
"In all families there are conflicts of course but I do not know of any conflict which in any way affected the Ikea group," Grosskopf told Dagens Industri.
The book penned by Lennart Dahlgren, the former head of Ikea in Russia, and researchers Stellan Björk and Karl von Schulzenheim claimed that Kamprad's sons hired a star lawyer to dispute the family fortune. Founder Kamprad is estimated to have as much as €3.2 billion in net wealth.
As yet, the Kamprad family have yet to issue a statement on the book with Grosskopf saying the sons haven't read the book in its entirety.
"They have not had the chance to read the whole book and I don't know if they will comment on it when they have," he said.
Grosskopf downplayed the reports in the book which claimed that the alleged familial battle led to Kamprad senior falling into bad health.
"From the excerpts I have read there isn't much evidence," he added.
Ingvar Kamprad,87, founded Ikea in 1943 establishing it into one of the largest retail giants in the world. He has resided in Switzerland since 1976 but announced in June that he intends to return to Sweden by the end of the year.

Sea the Stars is a great horse, but i dont see why Frankel is being compared to Black Caviar when she is clearly a Sprint Specialist, thats like comparing a Quarterback to a linemen. But Frankel is still active and i believe he will prove to the world that he is something special. I hope Juddmonte and Henry Cecil decide to bring him down for the BC this year.

Are all three books of the trilogy already out in the U.K.?
The second book is and I'm working on the third book now.
I was very heartened to see the title of the second book is The Song of the Quarkbeast. Dare I dream that this means what it suggests – the return of the Quarkbeast?
Yes, it means exactly that. As soon as people read the first book, they complained, 'How could you do that? I so loved the Quarkbeast.' And I was perplexed. It doesn't do anything. It's hideously ugly. About all you can say in its defense is that it is loyal. But that was enough, I suppose. There was an outpouring of demand for more Quarkbeast. And it's such an unusual creature, I thought, there probably is some way in which it could rise again. And so, yes, in book two, the Quarkbeast returns.
