Greetings and welcome to Kevin's Korner. The truth that makes men free is for the most part the truth which men prefer not to hear.
The silence has been broken in the aftermath of the settlement of the Heki lawsuit against Michele Bachmann, Kent Sorenson and other Bachmann cohorts. TheIowaRepublican.com obtained this exclusive statement from Congresswoman Bachmann, praising her former presidential campaign staffer:
"Barb Heki is a trustworthy person and a woman of integrity. She was a loyal member of the Bachmann for President team and capably performed her duties. I am not aware of any evidence whatsoever that Barb had any part in misusing or misappropriating NICHE's email list of homeschoolers and I consider her an exemplary homeschooling leader."- statement sent to TIR on behalf of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and the Bachmann for President campaign
This is a bit of well-deserved vindication for Barb Heki, a wonderful person whose life was turned upside-down by the Bachmann campaign's actions, and subsequent inaction in letting her take the fall for the illegal use of the NICHE list. I hope the settlement brings the Hekis some peace of mind.
Republicans in the Iowa Senate are losing two stalwarts: Nancy Boettger (R-Harlan) and Sandy Greiner (R-Keota) both plan to retire after the 2014 session. These two ladies are class acts and will be difficult to replace …
House Rep. Jason Schultz (R-Schleswig) will run for Boettger's seat. Matt Windschitl (R-Missouri Valley) was also considering running, but told TheIowaRepublican.com this weekend that he feels he can best serve his constituentsby remaining in the Iowa House …
This avoids what would have been a very contentious primary, as outside groups like Iowa Gun Owners and Iowa Pro-Life Action (which are basically the same entity) would have most assuredly gotten involved to attack Windschitl … As much as I would have enjoyed watching Windschitl smack down those groups again, I'm glad this fight won't happen. Schultz is a good representative and will make a fine state senator …
No thanks to Iowa Pro-Life Action, but telemed abortions may soon be a thing of the past in our state. In response to a petition initiated by Iowa Right to Life that included 20,000 signatures, the Iowa Board of Medicine will vote on the issue later this year … If the ban is enacted, it will save lives. Web cam abortions are dangerous for women as well … 14 medical professionals are amongst those lobbying to end this practice
With the GOP field in the U.S. Senate race likely to expand to seven candidates in the next few months, there is concern amongst that this race could be decided with a rhubarb at the state convention. That, of course, is exactly what Big Liberty is hoping for. It's their only path to victory.
Is it the role of the courts to keep up with public opinion? Rand Paul seems to think so, as he heaped praise on Justice Kennedy, the swing vote on the Supreme Court. Here's what Senator Paul told ABC after the court's rulings in favor of gay marriage last week:
Paul said he agreed with Kennedy, whom he called "someone who doesn't just want to be in front of opinion but wants government to keep up with opinion." He said Kennedy "tried to strike a balance."
Paul also said the ruling was "appropriate" and Republicans need to "agree to disagree" on the issue … Paulistinians will argue that Rand, and the Supreme Court, are taking the states' rights side of this issue. I disagree …
The Supreme Court just ruled that the federal government must recognize gay marriages and provide tax benefits to those couples. That is hardly an argument in favor of states' rights, especially considering the court also refused to defend the rights of the eight million Californians who voted against gay marriage with Prop 8 … Plus, the next legal battle will be to overturn the gay marriage bans in all the states. Last week's rulings will make that effort easier …
So, is Rand Paul to the left of Barack's buddy Chris Christie, of all people, on gay marriage? Yep.
The New Jersey governor took the opposite stance of Sen. Paul on the court's rulings. "I don't think the ruling was appropriate. I think it was wrong," Chris Christie said. He went on to blast the courts … Christie has twice vetoed a bill allowing gay marriage in his state. However, Chris Christie has expressed support of civil unions …
Sen. Paul also pointed out that the slippery slope of gay marriage could eventually lead to polygamy and bestiality becoming legal. He was right. Then he backtracked, in what is becoming a recurring theme of Rand Paul statements.
Rand Paul is going to try to win the 2016 Iowa Caucus by straddling the libertarian/social conservative line. It cannot be done … Perhaps Rand should consult with Mr. Miyagi about walking in the middle:
"Walk left side, safe. Walk right side, safe. Walk middle, sooner or later get squish just like grape." … This applies to countless other instances in politics … Thanks for the suggestion, BG.
Democrats in Congress claimed the IRS targeted liberal groups just as much as conservatives, and the compliant media fell for it, as usual … Just one problem it's not true, says the Treasury Department's inspector general … 100% of groups with "Tea Party", "patriots" and "9/12" in the name were flagged for extra scrutiny, while only 30% of groups with "progress" or "progressive" were put under the microscope.
While Barack tours the homeland, the Obama White House decided it would be a good time to promote a Voter ID program in Kenya … They sent out a fact sheet claiming the program in Kenya helps young people "obtain National identification cards, a prerequisite to voter registration" … Kenya boasted that its new Voter ID law helped remove 20,000 double-registered voters ahead of their 2013 elections. And Obama is promoting it …
Meanwhile, Barack's former staffer, Brad Hack Anderson, who wants to be Iowa's next secretary of state, attacks Voter ID at every opportunity, because as a lifelong political hack, he has nothing else to say except attacks … Maybe Anderson didn't get the memo from Big Brother Barack, and 70% of Iowans, including 60% of Democrats, who all believe Voter ID is a good thing.
What exactly would President Obama "scramble jets" for? Last week, he said he wouldn't do it to get NSA leaker Edward Snowden … We also know he wouldn't scramble jets to save the lives of Americans in Benghazi … Priorities …
I wonder if he would scramble jets to promote Obamacare. Democrats have been leaning on the NBA and NFL to promote their monstrosity. Thankfully, the NFL said no.
The fact that they feel they have to use professional sports to spread their propaganda says it all. I think Obi-Wan summed up Washington, D.C. perfectly, courtesy of The Comical Conservative:
That's it for this week. Thanks for dropping by. There are attempts, and there are accomplishments. Histories only praise one.

Beyond the obvious plethora of teachings of dystopian futures and the divisions of rich and poor, The Hunger Games offers us sage advice about falling in love and being in a relationship.
Plus: Hunger Games Pickup Lines That Katniss, Peeta and Gale Swear By
1) I know that when you are in a relationship you want your partner to play by the rules, but even if rules are stated, they can be changed, and they probably never existed in the first place. Forget the rules and try to be a little flexible.
2) Appearances can be deceiving. While there has to be an attraction if a relationship is ever going to work, allowing yourself to get to know someone, their strengths, their weakness, and what they have to offer you before you rule them out is a good idea.
3) Sometimes you have to take a bullet for the one you love, and that's usually not nearly as dramatic as volunteering to take their place as a tribute. Usually it's just something like taking the blame for stuff once in awhile. Unlike in the Hunger Games, it won't kill you.
Plus: 10 Love, Sex And Dating Lessons From The Best Nickelodeon Shows Of All Time
4) The minute you think you have things under control, someone will come out of the blue and throw a fireball (like a broken promises) at you or release an attack dog (jealous ex) in your direction. You don't have to live in fear, but it never hurts to be ready for trouble.
5) You need sponsors. You may think that you don't care if your partner's mom and his sisters like you, but you won't survive if they are working against you. Be nice.
6) Be a man. Or a woman, whichever the case. Just don't be a coward. Situations that are very hard are going to happen whether you like it or not. You don't have to shatter into a thousand pieces at the first sign of adversity; you can handle it.
7) You might die. Or the relationship might die, anyway. Lots of relationships don't make it and unlike in the Hunger Games, if yours bites the dust, you can live to love another day.
8) Run for cover during the bloodbaths. I know you want to grab that bow and arrow and start shooting sometimes; everyone does, but it never helps. Climb up in a tree and take a nap until you calm down.
Plus: 10 Love Lessons You Learn In Every Lifetime Movie
9) Be prepared. They say love is blind, but they be wrong. Know the person you are dating as well as possible, understand your risks, and have back up plans. I mean, you have to, because…
10) This is not a game. It may seem like one, but's your life, and it's the life of someone that you claim to care about, so show some respect.

New York, March 19, 2010—At least five journalists were wounded while covering
violent clashes between security personnel and protesters outside the capital,
Mukiibi Serunjogi, a reporter for the vernacular weekly Ggwanga, told CPJ he was struck in the knee by a gunshot fired by a security agent. Three people were killed during the clashes between security agents and protesters, according to news reports.
Red Cross personnel transported
Serunjogi to
"We deplore
the attacks by both sides on reporters covering this sensitive story," said CPJ's Africa Program Coordinator
Four journalists
were injured by either security guards or protestors on Wednesday, according to
the Ugandan Journalist Association, which said
one of the wounded was hospitalized today in
Protestors attacked freelance reporter Benjamin Ssebaggala and photographer Steven Musoke, both of whom sustained minor injuries, local journalists told CPJ. The two, along with Lemisa, were working for the vernacular daily Bukedde, which is considered a pro-government publication, said Herbert Lemansi, vice president of the Ugandan Journalists Association.
In another incident, Deutsche Welle correspondent Leila Ndinda was attacked by protestors who accused her of belonging to the same tribe as President Yoweri Museveni, the Ugandan Human Rights Network of Journalists reported. Protestors threw stones at the reporter and stole her hand bag, the network said.
The destroyed tomb had been named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2001. Tension has been high between the government and the kingdom since disagreements over land and political rights led to deadly violence last September.

Caregivers have been overlooked. There are many books covering bereavement for the terminally ill and their families. However, due attention has not been paid to those family members and friends who faithfully and selflessly care for the terminally ill person until he or she passes on. Author Roy Harris faithfully stood by his wife of 33 years as the two navigated the uncharted waters of breast cancer, ultimately resulting in her death. Roy's 16 years of experience as a pastor, someone who has been there for countless families going through the death and dying process, adds special insight to the helpful Caregiver Principles he provides at the end of each chapter. Caring for the Caregiver is a priceless gift of grace providing support, empathy, and edifying advice for the caregiver.

Eve Torres' Film and and Rocky Jones Documentary Have Debut Screenings
– Two wrestling-themed films had their first screenings in the past week. The first, the French comedy Les Reines du ring (Queen of the Ring), screened at the European Film Market in Germany earlier this week. The film is about a female ex-con who, fresh out of prison, decides to become a WWE Diva to build a relationship with her wrestling-loving son. Eve, CM Punk and The Miz appear in cameos and several WWE-related materials appear within the film, which has its climax at a WWE event. WWE Studios is partnered with the producers and has first distribution rights in the US.
The second film, a short film about Rocky Jones who worked as Mike Masters in the WWWF, Florida and Los Angeles among others, was screened in advance of its festival run. The film is forty-one minutes and focuses on his decision to turn down a WWF job in favor of spending time with his newborn daughter. Little Guido and Kodiak Bear are among the wrestlers who appear in the film as students of Jones'.
Here is an interview with Jones and Guido from PWInsider discussing the film and more:

Regardless of when they took the caffeine, the study participants reported disturbed sleep. Even when they took caffeine six hours before bed, they lost more than an hour of sleep compared to when they took the placebo.
Everything else aside, missing sleep can compromise your running, because you won't be able to recover as quickly from hard or long workouts. If you're regularly dragging by mid-afternoon, you're probably better off examining your morning and midday nutrition habits than taking a coffee break.
The research was published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.

A Topeka motorist convicted in 2006 of reckless second-degree murder in the death of an American Medical Response paramedic driving to work will be back in court Wednesday.
Victor Anzua-Torres, 36, will appear before Shawnee County District Court Judge Nancy Parrish at 1:30 p.m. for an evidentiary hearing.
Anzua-Torres was sentenced in June 2006 to four consecutive prison terms totaling 13 years and nine months for acts tied to the death of Ryan Ostendorf, 28, of Lawrence.
Ostendorf was driving to work on US-40 highway near S.E. Green Road. Anzua-Torres was driving 70 to 80 mph in the wrong lane on Dec. 5, 2005, when his Cadillac Escalade hit Ostendorf's oncoming Jeep head-on.
Anzua-Torres was sentenced for reckless second-degree murder, reckless aggravated battery for injuring a passenger in his Escalade, driving under the influence and driving without a license.
Anzua-Torres appealed his conviction of second-degree murder and his sentences, challenging jury instructions, severity level classifications and due process.
The Kansas Supreme Court affirmed the lower court's findings. Anzua-Torres then filed a "1507" motion. A 1507 motion is filed by an inmate claiming the right to be released on grounds that his constitutional rights have been violated, that the court lacks jurisdiction or that a sentence is excessive, according to Topeka Capital-Journal archives.
That motion was denied and the decision was appealed. The dismissal was reversed and remanded for an evidentiary hearing, which will take place Wednesday.
Anzua-Torres was sentenced to:
■ Eleven years and six months for reckless second-degree murder.
■ Nine months for aggravated battery.
■ One year for driving under the influence of alcohol.
■ Six months for no driver's license.
During Anzua-Torres' sentencing, Ryan Ostendorf's family and friends for two hours talked about Ostendorf, saying he was a compassionate paramedic and a best friend.
Anzua-Torres is currently housed at the Lansing Correctional Facility.

Brian Hill, classroom and technical services coordinator at the University of St. Thomas' downtown Minneapolis campus, will give a free guided tour of the university's frescoes from 11 a.m. to noon Tuesday, Dec. 28, at the campus, 1000 LaSalle Ave.
Hill will discuss the frescoes in the context of the Dec. 26-Jan. 1 celebration of Kwanzaa, the African-American festival that celebrates family, community and culture.
Artist Mark Balma completed the 17- by 112-foot atrium ceiling's frescoes in 1994. They are an allegorical depiction of the seven virtues — faith, justice, prudence, hope, temperance, fortitude and charity — discussed by St. Thomas Aquinas, the university's patron. Kwanzaa, too, celebrates seven principles: unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith.
Hill has worked at UST for 12 years, 10 of them at the Minneapolis campus, where he witnessed the frescoes' creation and produced a Web site about them. It can be found at http://www.stthomas.edu/www/fresco/.
For further information about the tour, or to arrange special guided group tours, call (651) 962-4000 or send e-mail to email@example.com.

Until the advent of pirate radio in 1964, the evenings-only English-language broadcasts from Radio Luxembourg—208 on the dial and transmitted from the grand duchy—represented the only pop music radio regularly available to British fans. Although the station's policy of leasing airtime to record companies meant having to hear a sequence of forgettable records on, for example, the Oriole label, there were unmissable treats, such as the American Top 20 on Sunday nights, which featured records that would not be released in the United Kingdom for weeks or even months—and that, even when released, might not be aired. Several stalwarts of British radio made their reputations at the station, including Barry Alldis, Paul Burnett, Noel Edmonds, David Jensen, and Jimmy Savile, who went from Radio Luxembourg to television's Top of the Pops. Perhaps the name most inextricably linked with the station is that of association football pools forecaster Horace Batchelor, whose Keynsham address—"that's K-E-Y-N-S-H-A-M"—was immortalized as the title of a Bonzo Dog Band album in 1969.John Pidgeon

Four Principles for Reducing Total Cost of Ownership
Difficult economic times require new perspectives and strategies for reducing the cost of storage infrastructure. The past several years of IT procurement have left many IT organizations with underutilized and oversubscribed storage capacity. Now, with a squeeze on capital and credit, many organizations are faced with edicts to do more with less and to make tough decisions on where to invest available funds. In particular, there are increased demands to do more with the existing, sunk infrastructure costs in the IT department. This paper outlines methods of quantifying storage infrastructure costs and identifying those that can be reduced. It presents techniques, developed on the basis of several years' findings, for reducing those costs.

Undaunted by suggestions that U.S. President Barack Obama might be turning sour on the Keystone XL pipeline, Premier Alison Redford said Thursday she's still very optimistic about American approval.
"Everything we're doing right now is about ensuring that we have a more sustainable and stronger record with respect to environmental management," she said.
Alberta's top customer and the Keystone pipeline draw Redford to Washington, D.C. this weekend.
Market access for the province's bitumen will top the agenda as Redford and Environment Minister Diana McQueen attend the National Governors Association winter meet. Looming by summer, an expected decision on the Keystone XL Canadian extension to transport Alberta bitumen to the Texas Gulf Coast.
Redford responded to questions about comments made by U.S. Ambassador to Canada David Jacobson last week, who suggested additional Canadian action on climate change could help pave the way for the Keystone.
"It's not as if any of the comments in the last couple of weeks took us by surprise," she said
"This is what we've known we're dealing with, this is what's important for us to deal with, and we're going to take it very seriously."
Redford also said increased carbon tax isn't on the table right now. She drew fire last year from critics who said she should advocate more heavily for Keystone.
The province's message is one of openness and transparency of energy development, a world-leading oilsands monitoring program, arm's length governance and a comprehensive land-use plan, a government release said.
Alberta was the first jurisdiction in North America to require all large industry to take action on greenhouse gas emissions, with a $15 per tonne price on carbon in excess of legislated limits; with some $312 million collected to date, the province has invested nearly $167 million into 43 clean energy projects.
Redford will also meet with western governors, as well as Manitoba Premier Greg Selinger on the Canadian Energy Strategy, which both premiers chair.
On Sunday she'll attend a Western Governors Association meeting hosted by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar.
McQueen will continue to Vermont and Maine, where lobbyists have been vocal in opposition to letting Alberta bitumen cross their borders.
Travel costs for the premier and two staff is an estimated $19,100.
Travel for McQueen and one staff member is an estimated $26,000.

As rising inland transportation costs continue to present a challenge for ocean carriers and other private asset owners, REZ-1 has developed a suite of business services including container visibility and distribution, automated rail billing, and line haul storage and invoicing tools to provide asset owners with an effective solution for marketing these containers for reload and reducing the amount of empty repositioning.
Built on REZ-1's proven platform of web-based applications and business services that have been serving the rail-controlled container and trailer markets for over 13 years, the domestic reload program is an extension of service options geared towards the specific needs and challenges of ocean carriers and other private equipment owners.
New services include the integration of ocean carrier and private asset owner container and trailer inventories into the REZ-1 reservation interface that provides real-time, event driven visibility to availability at the rail terminal, satellite depots, and virtual street pools for efficient interchange and reload. With equipment secured, customers will then be able to submit rail bills directly to REZ-1 for conversion, processing, and submission to the appropriate rail. Rounding out the domestic reload program, corresponding line haul rates will also be stored and managed by REZ-1 systems along with optional billing and collections services to further increase operational efficiency.
Serving this market will be a virtually seamless transition for REZ-1 with an existing application user community that consists of over 250 of the leading intermodal marketing companies and third-party logistics companies, as well as hundreds of regional drayage companies throughout North America. This built in community has been relying the ChannelSpeed and StreetSpeed applications as part of their daily operations for access to rail-controlled container and trailer programs including CSXU and EMP fleets as well as free running trailer programs, prior to privatization.

The Son That Former NFL Player Rae Carruth Tried To Kill Turns 18, Still Suffering From Permanent Brain Damage
The former wide receiver, who plotted the murder of his ex, Cherica Adams, is scheduled to be released from prison soon.
High-calorie sports drinks and candy bars will be removed from school vending machines and cafeteria lines as soon as next year, replaced with diet drinks, granola bars and other healthier items.
The Agriculture Department said Thursday that for the first time it will make sure that all foods sold in the nation's 100,000 schools are healthier by expanding fat, calorie, sugar and sodium limits to almost everything sold during the school day.
That includes snacks sold around the school and foods on the "a la carte" line in cafeterias, which never have been regulated before. The new rules, proposed in February and made final this week, also would allow states to regulate student bake sales.
The rules, required under a child nutrition law passed by Congress in 2010, are part of the government's effort to combat childhood obesity. The rules have the potential to transform what many children eat at school.
While some schools already have made improvements in their lunch menus and vending machine choices, others still are selling high-fat, high-calorie foods. Current standards already regulate the nutritional content of free and low-cost school breakfasts and lunches that are subsidized by the federal government, but most lunchrooms also have the "a la carte" lines that sell other foods - often greasy foods like mozzarella sticks and nachos.
Under the rules, those lines could offer healthier pizzas, low-fat hamburgers, fruit cups or yogurt, among other foods that meet the standards.
One of the biggest changes under the rules will be a near-ban on high-calorie sports drinks, which many beverage companies added to school vending machines to replace high-calorie sodas that they pulled in response to criticism from the public health community.
The rule would only allow sales in high schools of sodas and sports drinks that contain 60 calories or less in a 12-ounce serving, banning the highest-calorie versions of those beverages.
Many companies already have developed low-calorie sports drinks - Gatorade's G2, for example - and many diet teas and diet sodas are also available for sale.
Elementary and middle schools could sell only water, carbonated water, 100 percent fruit or vegetable juice, and low fat and fat-free milk, including nonfat flavored milks.
One principle of the new rules is not just to cut down on unhealthy foods but to increase the number of healthier foods sold. The standards encourage more whole grains, low-fat dairy, fruits, vegetables and lean proteins.
"It's not enough for it to be low in problem nutrients, it also has to provide positive nutritional benefits," says Margo Wootan, a nutrition lobbyist for the Center for Science in the Public Interest who has lobbied for the new rules. "There has to be some food in the food."
The new rules are the latest in a long list of changes designed to make foods served in schools more healthful and accessible. Nutritional guidelines for the subsidized lunches were revised last year and put in place last fall. The 2010 child nutrition law also provided more money for schools to serve free and reduced-cost lunches and required more meals to be served to hungry kids.
Last year's rules making main lunch fare more nutritious faced criticism from some conservatives, including some Republicans in Congress, who said the government shouldn't be telling kids what to eat. Mindful of that backlash, the Agriculture Department left one of the more controversial parts of the rule, the regulation of in-school fundraisers like bake sales, up to the states.
The new guidelines also would not apply to after-school concessions at school games or theater events, goodies brought from home for classroom celebrations, or anything students bring for their own personal consumption.
The USDA so far has shown a willingness to work with schools to resolve complaints that some new requirements are hard to meet. Last year, for example, the government temporarily relaxed some limits on meats and grains in subsidized lunches after school nutritionists said they weren't working.
The food industry has been onboard with many of the changes, and several companies worked with Congress on the child nutrition law three years ago.

Roberto Martínez has said his Wigan Athletic team are determined to show the world at Stamford Bridge on Sunday that they can defy the odds for a fourth time this season by adding to their victories over Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal.
Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed Manchester United would be "clutching at straws" if they expected Wigan to give them a chance of the title by holding or defeating Chelsea, who will be champions if they win. But Martínez believes his players are capable of another major surprise.
"As a footballer, you play for the memories and the memories come by winning medals," the Wigan manager said. "But for our club to perform well when the whole football world is watching is going to give us special memories. Our season is finished but Sunday is something more special than that. It is about showing what we have learned and how we have defied the odds. Everyone expects Chelsea to turn up and win but it is more than just a game of football for us. Our youngsters could learn more in 90 minutes than they could in two or three years."
Martínez cited the 3-1 defeat of Chelsea at the DW Stadium in September, during which Petr Cech was sent off, as the moment his players started to believe that they could beat anyone. "We had a mental block before that game," he said. "We had played 24 times against a top-four side but had never won. That afternoon we had to realise that, if we were brave enough and good enough on the day, we should be able to beat anyone. What was pleasing was that we stopped them being Chelsea.
"We were the better side. We had a few chances in the first half and scored from a set play and in the second half, when Chelsea equalised, I felt it was a real test of how we would react. To finish the game and win got rid of that mental block that we would never beat a top-four side."
The omens, however, are not good. Wigan have won at Stamford Bridge before, but that was in the FA Cup in 1980 when Chelsea no more expected championships than Wigan dreamed of top-flight football. Martínez has broken Wigan's mental block against the Big Four but it is four years since they last won in London and of the five times the Premier League title has been live on the final afternoon only once, in 1995, has the side who were top going into the final day lost. And even then Blackburn kept first place because Manchester United only drew at West Ham.
"But we have nothing to lose," said Martínez. "We have a very young squad but they are arrogant – in the right manner. On our day we have proved we can beat anyone, although we have also proved we can lose to anyone.
"For me, the worst moment was losing 4-0 at Portsmouth [in October]. It was my lowest point. People ask me about losing 9-1 at Tottenham but we learned a lot that day and were probably able to beat teams like Liverpool and Arsenal after that because of that defeat. My proudest moment was actually beating Liverpool – we took them on face to face and tactically they are very strong."

The Best Elder Scolls Game?
View Single Post
March 22nd, 2011, 12:29
Well, I played DF, Redguard, MW, and Oblivion. Daggerfall made me a TES fan, but I agree with the majority that MW was the highlight so far. It did have its shortcomings in many ways, but to me "the sum of its parts" was a really great experience. Not to mention the hours of fun I had while modding it.
While I was well entertained by Oblivion, it didn't even come close to fascinate me as much as Morrowind did (and hyped as I was, that means it failed my expectations by a wide margin). The handholding got in the way first, and the lack of a meaningful development of the lore and the ultimate blandness of the version of Cyrodiil that was presented here did not allow me to oversee the flaws as much as I did with Morrowind. Interestingly, the level scaling was only a minor grievance for me.

Apple use AdWord advertising to show their Apple Add for the following key words.
Windows 7
Windows 7 download
Windows 7 upgrade
Apple is quite famous in this kind of marketing campaigns in history. This time Microsoft has clearly showed that they have answered the Windows Vista Complains through Windows7. Fixing all the compatibility issues and User interface problems.
On the other hand according to AdWord Terms and Conditions it is not appropriate to use some other brand name to advertise your product. Let Google Microsoft and Apple can handle that later.
However for me it is faults advertising. Apple is damaging it reputation by these type of marketing campaigns. Apple is branded and has different market where Windows target a different set of audience.
One thing is proven that launch of Windows 7 is already become a threat to Apple.

On the Shoulders of Giants: Co-location with Dominant Firms in the Emerging Fiber Optics Industry
In this study we investigate the location choices of start-ups and established firms relative to dominant firms in the US fiber optics industry from 1976 to 1994. We test the propensity to co-locate with dominant firms and whether proximity to a dominant firm impacts the strategic choices made by start-ups and established firms. Contrary to our predictions, we find that both start-ups and established firms are equally likely to co-locate with dominant firms. We also find that start-ups exhibit greater new product adoption rates and greater product-line breadth than established firms. This implies that start-ups are relatively more likely to realize greater strategic gains with entry into emerging markets.

One of the most dramatic and affordable ways to modernise the interior of your home is by putting up some new wallpaper.

Graphic Wall Paper – Instantly Make Over Your Room With Adhesive Wall Graphics
Re-decorating a room within your home can not only cost a great deal of money but also a considerable amount of time. From choosing the ideal color scheme and finding the required paint, wall paper and accessories, often, by the time we complete the room we may find that we no longer like the finished product or worse, may find we cannot afford to finish the decorating process. It is due to reasons such as this that when it comes to decorating a room, we often opt for 'safe' colors and palettes which we are less likely to grow tired of. Although this is sensible and can save money, it can leave our home looking dull, lifeless and not a true reflection of our taste and personality. Whether your plans are to decorate one room or the entire house, one thing is for sure, its eye appealing and brings your distinct personality alive. Three glorious years ago my family moved into our dream house. It was large but not so enormous that it would be too hard to maintain. It seemed to be perfect. Our only dilemma was that after the down payment, closing costs and the many rooms of new furniture there was very little we had left to spend. If you're a parent who grew up in the 80's and 90's, no doubt your walls were covered in posters of all your favorite bands and heroes. If your kid is a fan of wrestling, you've probably been asked to get some wrestling wall decals. Read on to learn why this is a great thing. Instead of using paint, wall graphics is a good alternative. You can use pictures of different pet animals or people with pets. Wall papers are known to be highly decorative and for this reason, they are popular among a large percentage of the population. In most instances, they can range from sporting graphics to those of personalities and individuals who have left a mark in the lives of people. These are often used as decorative pieces and they can be posted on home walls or office walls among other places. There are several avenues through which you can get he same and while this is the case, there are a couple of factors that need to be reviewed. Interior designers must use every accessible material in order to improve on their craft. It is advisable to look at the latest trends, even with the printing technology. You must know when you can use such advancements as adhesive vinyl and the likes to achieve a different look each time you service a client.
With the re-introduction of wallpaper into modern day interior design, creating a "feature wall" or redecorating an entire room has suddenly taken on a whole new meaning. Rather than simply painting a chimney breast a darker shade of chocolate brown paint, we've now been given the perfect excuse to utilize the new trend for brightly colored and elaborately patterned wallpaper to transform our homes from the neutral 90's to the colorful Noughties! Upon entering a house, people will almost always notice the walls first since they are the largest surface area in any given room. The designs on the wall will attract anyone's attention, and even if there's luxurious furniture and decor all around, if the walls aren't done well, the room doesn't light up the way it's supposed to. Simply put, walls play a crucial role in interior planning and design. You don't have to look far to find a floral print. They are everywhere – on curtains, cushions, sofas and even on our clothing. This season's catwalks are flush with pastel colours and botanical prints. So, how can we incorporate floral designs into our home without turning it into a chintz palace? Has it been a while since you thought about using wallpaper in your house or apartment? Maybe it's time to revisit what's on offer. Certainly, I know my earliest memories were of gaudy, tangy 70s prints guaranteed to induce a fainting spell for the most hardy of eyes! Thankfully, times have changed and the range of high quality wallpapers has increased to accommodate a range of tastes and budgets. For many people the dream of an old house is not a grand country house but a stylish Victorian Terrace. Much like any well planned house in Victorian Terraces the fireplace is the focal point of the house. Many people will try to match modern accessories with antique fireplaces, this is possible but often the most sympathetic restoration will rely on using some other Victorian decoration. Wallpapers range from the expensive hand-blocked variety to the mass-produced high-street ranges. Many of the mass-produced types are actually made from vinyl or PVC and are washable making them suitable for kitchens and bathrooms.
Floral Wallpaper Designs – Makeover a Room With Home Decorating Wallpaper
Upon entering a house, people will almost always notice the walls first since they are the largest surface area in any given room. The designs on the wall will attract anyone's attention, and even if there's luxurious furniture and decor all around, if the walls aren't done well, the room doesn't light up the way it's supposed to. Simply put, walls play a crucial role in interior planning and design. History doesn't reveal as much about wallpaper as perhaps it should. On the other hand as it is by definition temporary, it's perhaps unsurprising that less hard evidence of it remains than of murals and paintings. The pyramids and caves of our own distant forebears were not, so far as we know, wallpapered. But then we have come a very long distance since that time. Miss E Wakerly is making quite a name for herself and it's not difficult to see why given her clear talent and eye for the sublime. Here I take a look at what is making the young London designer such a hot topic of conversation in design circles. Direct comparison of the relative merits of wallpaper and wall stickers. Impartiality guaranteed. For generations, decorating experts have known that one of the simplest ways of making a style statement is via a floral tribute. What started as a late-Victorian obsession with the natural world, evolved into William Morris's stylised botanicals and between-the-wars vernacular schemes that saw walls, floors and windows adorned with everything from sweeping trails of rambling roses to subtle sprigs. Wallpaper that has the look of belonging in the years from the 1940's to the 1970's is usually considered retro. The floral, striped, or geometrical patterns in colors like orange, brown, aqua, and grey are unmistakable. Most of the time they have a bold and stylized look that is different from the contemporary designs today.

Two new movies titled "Sherlock Holmes" currently dot the landscape. One, of course, features Robert Downey Jr. The other features rockets and dinosaurs, junior.
Confused? Then I'm assuming you've never heard of Asylum Home Entertainment, which specializes in riding the coattails of Hollywood's big-budget offerings with direct-to-DVD productions. Fans call them "mockbusters"; Asylum prefers the term "tie-in." For example, at the same time "Transformers" was making bank in theaters, you could rent "Transmorphers" at home. It's the kind of thing upon which Roger Corman practically based his entire career.
And now there's "Sherlock Holmes," which can be titled as such because the character is in the public domain. In this film, Holmes (newcomer Ben Syder) and Dr. Watson (Gareth David-Lloyd, TV's "Torchwood") undergo an adventure the great detective asked his pal not to commit to paper. And no wonder, because it's one readers likely would never believe. After all, do you recall encountering prostitutes and prehistoric creatures in Victorian London's alleyways?
Things start off interesting, with a ship being downed by a tentacled monster, and the introduction of Holmes and Watson is done in a manner befitting of the characters. But I quickly lost interest, although the scenes in which they " or others in the cast " run from dinos admittedly carry a kick of kitsch. By the time Dominic Keating (TV's "Star Trek Enterprise") showed up in a steampunk-ready rocket suit, my attention had diminished.
You could fault the addition of anachronistic horror and sci-fi elements to the Arthur Conan Doyle canon, but you'd be a wet blanket for doing so. Lighten up, because the flick certainly does. The real problem, I'm afraid, is the decision to give Syder the lead role; he's too short, too wussy and too unappealing, casting a dull pallor over the entire proceedings.
At least the crew tries. The movie may exist as a cash grab, but it's not phoned in, either. As the behind-the-scenes footage plays out, everyone involved seems young, eager and energetic to give this thing a try, low budget be damned. For Asylum fans " and I know they're out there " the disc also includes several trailers for other look-alike releases, most notably "Paranormal Entity." "Rod Lott

If you're interested in auto news and have an iPhone we've recently brought you posts about a Mercedes mbrace iPhone app and also an iPhone Car Kit from Navigon. Now, if you have an iPhone and need help with directions you're in for a nice surprise as Garmin has finally unveiled its StreetPilot navigation app for the iPhone. It will set you back $40 so if you're wondering how it compares with a hardware Garmin GPS navigator, this could help you out.
An article by Charlie White over on Mashable, compares the StreetPilot for iPhone app with the Garmin Nuvi 1690. White notes that the reason the Garmin app for iPhone has been such a long time coming is because Garmin has been focusing on smartphone hardware and asserts that Garmin has done pretty well with adapting its software for an iOS device. One of the big positives with the software version is of course that maps can be regularly updated over a 3G network.
White points out that this could be a problem if you are outside a 3G network area but that he didn't find it a cause for concern. The app is also said to have many of the features of the Garmin hardware versions, such as points of interest, and spoken street names. In fact White indicates that the iPhone app included more information than on the Nuvi 1690 and was only occasionally slower than the Nuvi 1690 but had the added benefit of giving street names in advance.
If you want to read all of the information that White speaks about then check out the full article at the Mashable link above. The article concludes though that $40 is a reasonable price and that Garmin has done an "admirable job" with the StreetPilot app. You can also see a video of the testing over on the full article.
To get more details of Garmin products and also apps go to the website here which will tell you everything you need to know. What are your first impressions of the Garmin StreetPilot for iPhone app? Why not send us your comments to let us know.

Mike Keenan expects a rough game tonight in Anaheim.
His Calgary Flames played a strong first period when they last met the Ducks in Orange County, but gave up four goals in the second frame of a 4-2 loss Feb. 17.
Part of the reason was a ramped up physical game.
"We had a good first period and a good third period, and the middle stanza was not good enough.
"They changed the momentum of the game, became more physical in the second period and took the game away from us," Keenan said yesterday. "We're going to expect the same from them tomorrow."
He expects Miikka Kiprusoff to be challenged by traffic.
"They're very aggressive. They run the goaltender," said Keenan.
"Hopefully, our team will be ready and have the disposition to protect our net. And certainly we expect the officials to do their jobs as well."
Keenan wasn't happy about the way his team practised yesterday.
Asked in the media scrum if the mood has changed since the passing of the trade deadline, the head coach responded with a criticism.
"If the mood was different, it wasn't good enough," he said.
"There's no time to sit and get casual because you weren't moved or there were no changes. It's time to move it up and raise the bar and drive the expectations up amongst themselves."
Keenan was then asked if he saw the bar being raised.
"No, I didn't," he said.
"So I reinforced it to make sure they're aware of it.
"I want the practices to be perfect practices. We don't come here to waste our time and to be nonchalant about our preparation.
"We've got to be spot on every day from here on in."
