text: When listening to music via the music player through headphones, any movement of the headphone input in the headphone jack causes tracks to FF it seems. I.E., If you spin the cord while in the jack, or even if you just push it in farther to see if it is fully seated tracks will FF. Not a showstopper, but I wanted to put this out there and see if anyone can reproduce this or is my phone just weird? Thanks for the feedback

DAS is a company that, since inception, has strived to make the highest quality peripherals for the price. We had the opportunity to put the new DAS Keyboard 4C Ultimate through its paces.
DAS is a company that, since inception, has strived to make the highest quality peripherals for the price. We had the opportunity to put the new DAS Keyboard 4C Ultimate through its paces.
Longtime BaseLAN and AYB Online sponsor Patriot announced their launch into gaming peripherals yesterday at Computex 2015. I have been a big fan of the quality of Patriot products since I started using their mobile power banks (FUEL+) to keep my phone charged at conventions and when I am out and about with people.
The GTX 970 launched back in September 2014. Back then it was regarded as a staggering leap in price/performance for desktop graphics cards. It has now been more than half a year since the launch of that card and we're going to find out if it still offers the same kind of value now, as it did back then. Several things have changed since the launch of this card. Especially for us Canadians.
Gog.com have been friends of AYBonline for a number of years. They often provide keys to games we host so that our participants can enter Baselan tournaments for games they may not otherwise have. We always appreciate the support our sponsors give us, so when one asks for support we're happy to help in any way we can.
Yesterday, Gog posted a request for help in improving their download speeds worldwide.
"It's no secret that GOG.com (the platform and the community gathered around it) is growing at an exceptional rate all around the world. We're trying to keep that in mind as we look for new ways to improve our service for everyone. Obviously, one of the most important functions for all of you is downloading your games – preferably as fast and as reliably as possible For some of you this might sound familiar (yep it's our 3rd time!), once again we are in the process of benchmarking various download locations and trying to get the most representative sample of worldwide results. That means wee need to look at as many unique ISPs / cities / countries as possible, and we need a little help from you! Below you will find a simple test that requires just one click and won't take more than 2 minutes of your time to complete:"
If you've ever used the service, and plan to use it again, it might be worth the 2 minutes of your time to take the GOG speed test.

ati 4890 driver issues
Hello new to these forums and having a strange problem with the ati overdrive feature on all versions of ati catalyst drivers,The system is win7 home edition ,core 2 duo 8500 running at 4gb, asus p5e mb, 8gbs ddr2 ram, and ati 4890 grapic card and HP L2475 W screen. the graphic card works well but when ever I try to use auto tune in the catalyst control centre it seems to crash the system ,ie the screen goes blank ,but the hard drive usage indicator on the tower shows a lot of activity ,it seems to take forever and i end up getting fed up waiting and press the reset button and rebooting the system ,so has any body ever used the ATI auto tune feature ,? with any success many thanks for any help or info given peter

Sounds like a power supply issue; however, looking at your specs, 650W should be sufficient.
(I had a Radeon 3870 where I would use the auto-tune function and it would crash with a 500W psu.)

Best advice, don't use it. You are much better off sticking with ATI overdrives manual feature to set your clock speeds, or use else 3rd party tools.
It reports it @ v1.1 when the 2D/3D clock speed is in the cards 'idle' state. You can 'catch it' running @ 2.0 if you open the sensor tab and then quickly switch back the first page.

I'm working on a portfolio to apply with at an university. I already applied with another portfolio at this school but was rejected. Before handing it in, I asked a teacher and a former student from this university for critiques and comments. They were quite pleased and only suggested a few minor changes. After the rejection, I asked another of the university's teacher what I could have done better. According to this teacher, the portfolio was obviously bad. He found a lot he was not pleased with, but couldn't give any precise suggestions for what the school wanted. I know of course, that art is very subjective, and if one person likes a picture, it doesn't mean the next one has to like it, too. Nonetheless, I'd like to make it this time because I'd really like to work as an illustrator or concept artist.
I'll upload here some of the pictures I'm working on; not all, because they ask for 30 - 40.
I'd appreciate any critiques and comments you may give to help me make this portfolio seriously rock. Leave the kitty gloves off, please.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Unanswered: SPSS compatibility: database selection advice?
Does anyone know of a particular database management software that allows easy export of tables to SPSS? I am looking for a system that is able to export variable labels and value labels automatically.
I have over a thousand variables, so when the data needs to be exported to SPSS for analysis, it becomes tedious having to manually copy-paste variable labels and value labels.
Your inputs will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Wherever you choose to hold your Hen Party, we can arrange to come to you. Whether that is at a holiday cottage, a self-catered apartment or even in your own living room! All we need is enough space for everyone to get crafty with a needle and thread and room for us to plug in our irons or sewing machines if they are needed for the workshop option you have chosen.
Alternatively, if you are stumped for venue ideas, we have a long list of tried and tested venues all over the UK and we will be more than happy to make some suggestions until we all agree on a location. We have held our crafty hen party workshops in friendly pubs, bars and cafes all over the UK. So we are sure to have somewhere local to you to recommend as the prefect venue for your alternative hen do!
From Belfast to Newcastle and from London to Devon, we have held our hen party workshops in every corner of the country, spreading the crafty feeling far and wide!

An understanding of the spatial distribution of the black-legged tick, Ixodes scapularis, is a fundamental component in assessing human risk for Lyme disease in much of the United States. Although a county-level vector distribution map exists for the United States, its accuracy is limited by arbitrary categories of its reported presence. It is unknown whether reported positive areas can support established populations and whether negative areas are suitable for established populations. The steadily increasing range of I. scapularis in the United States suggests that all suitable habitats are not currently occupied. Therefore, we developed a spatially predictive logistic model for I. scapularis in the 48 conterminous states to improve the previous vector distribution map. We used ground-observed environmental data to predict the probability of established I. scapularis populations. The autologistic analysis showed that maximum, minimum, and mean temperatures as well as vapor pressure significantly contribute to population maintenance with an accuracy of 95% (p < 0.0001). A cutoff probability for habitat suitability was assessed by sensitivity analysis and was used to reclassify the previous distribution map. The spatially modeled relationship between I. scapularis presence and large-scale environmental data provides a robust suitability model that reveals essential environmental determinants of habitat suitability, predicts emerging areas of Lyme disease risk, and generates the future pattern of I. scapularis across the United States.

Father's Day Trailer (2009)
29 September 2009 10 mins
Young Keetje wants to surprise her father with a wonderful father's day breakfast. Wearing a red checked apron and with her tongue out, she finishes her drawing and puts a thick layer of marmalade and chocolate confetti on a slice of bread. Meanwhile, the inevitable egg is boiling on the cooker. When the cooking of the egg turns into a dangerous situation, Keetje is painfully confronted with herself.

Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple loci associated with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) susceptibility, but further progress requires integration of epidemiology and biology to illuminate true risk loci below genome-wide significance levels (P < 5 × 10−8). Most risk SNPs lie within non–protein-encoding regions, and we hypothesize that long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) genes are enriched at EOC risk regions and represent biologically relevant functional targets.
Methods: Using imputed GWAS data from about 18,000 invasive EOC cases and 34,000 controls of European ancestry, the GENCODE (v19) lncRNA database was used to annotate SNPs from 13,442 lncRNAs for permutation-based enrichment analysis. Tumor expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis was performed for sub-genome-wide regions (1 × 10−5 > P > 5 × 10−8) overlapping lncRNAs.
Results: Of 5,294 EOC-associated SNPs (P < 1.0 × 10−5), 1,464 (28%) mapped within 53 unique lncRNAs and an additional 3,484 (66%) SNPs were correlated (r2 > 0.2) with SNPs within 115 lncRNAs. EOC-associated SNPs comprised 130 independent regions, of which 72 (55%) overlapped with lncRNAs, representing a significant enrichment (P = 5.0 × 10−4) that was more pronounced among a subset of 5,401 lncRNAs with active epigenetic regulation in normal ovarian tissue. EOC-associated lncRNAs and their putative promoters and transcription factors were enriched for biologically relevant pathways and eQTL analysis identified five novel putative risk regions with allele-specific effects on lncRNA gene expression.
Conclusions: lncRNAs are significantly enriched at EOC risk regions, suggesting a mechanistic role for lncRNAs in driving predisposition to EOC.
Impact: lncRNAs represent key candidates for integrative epidemiologic and functional studies. Further research on their biologic role in ovarian cancer is indicated. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 26(1); 116–25. ©2016 AACR.

Hotel info, schedule, cancellation policy and more:
Of course! I designed these weekends for women who want to learn about being the best they can be – in ALL aspects of life. You get to train with, hang with and learn from me in an intimate setting. We cover IN-DEPTH nutrition, macros, how to customize them for YOU, training tips that will change your game, and so much more – including a Q&A with me! You will be inspired by new confidence and memories that will last a lifetime!
The $400 price includes the Friday night Meet & Greet check-in (6-8 PM) with me and the rest of the awesome women attending and a full day Saturday of nutrition and training seminars, lifting/weight training and cardio workouts (depending on the location). The weekend ends with a Saturday Jessie's Girls night out where we relax, eat and get to know each other even better. Your Meet & Greet check-in includes appetizers and wine. Your Jessie's Girls Training Camp weekend includes a Jessie's Girls tank, TONS of amazing goodies, and an opportunity for you to learn all my tips and tricks in the weight room and out.
The entire camp will be held at Hitz Fitness in Phoenix, Arizona. Address is:
2505 E Indian School Rd
Phoenix, AZ 85016
Map it
I recommend staying at the Hampton Inn Phoenix-Biltmore at 2310 E Highland Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85016 (602) 956-5221. That hotel is close to the gym, they have a free shuttle to and from the gym and is close by a Whole Foods and lots of other shopping, restaurants and more!
Friday: Meet & Greet check-in (approx. 6 – 8PM)
Saturday: Full day (approx. 8AM – 6PM including a lunch break)
Saturday night Jessie's Girls night out (9 – ?PM)
How are Jessie's Girls Training Camps different from all of the other fitness camps and bootcamps out there?
Jessie's Girls Training Camps stand out from the rest in so many ways: • The extensive knowledge and background in fitness, training, nutrition and the fitness industry of Jessie Hilgenberg, means you will learn and take home SO much valuable information. Whether it is the beginning of your fitness journey or if you are just trying to perfect your skills, Jessie's compassionate & fun personality keeps the energy and camaraderie going all weekend. • You get to exercise in a fun, supportive and motivating group environment while you gain knowledge and tools on how to empower yourself to continue your new healthy lifestyle. You'll learn nutritional balance so you can be fueled and satisfied on your personal fitness journey. All this plus a camaraderie, support and bonding that is vital for achieving your fitness & wellness goals!
You are responsible for your hotel accommodations. Hotel, food, and air travel is not included in the price. You will receive the recommended hotel information anytime 4-6 weeks out from your Jessie's Girls Training Camp date, and you are responsible for making the reservation. I do not guarantee any hotel pricing. You are welcome to book at any type of accommodation you would like – the recommended hotel is only chosen to be the most convenient to the events throughout the weekend. You do not have to stay at the recommended hotel if you live local – it is only chosen to be the most convenient to the events throughout the weekend.
Yes, I email you a full itinerary 1-2 weeks before your Jessie's Girls Training Camp begins.
Lunch is not provided unless otherwise noted. Everyone is on their own for breakfast, lunch, dinner and any meals you need to eat throughout the day(s). You may bring food with you and eat anytime during seminars, the format is casual (there may not be access to refrigerators or microwaves). During the lunch break, you may stay and eat your packed meal or you may go out to lunch with or without the group within the scheduled lunch hour.
Absolutely not! Jessie's Girls Training Camps are for the mainstream woman of all shapes, sizes and of any age that are interested in all sorts of training styles. Everyone has a different story, a different goal, and different backgrounds!
Absolutely!! I instruct women of all levels and show you different variations to fit your current ability level. I have women that are just beginning to workout, pregnant women (requires doctor's release), young, old, experts and everything else in between! It is for everyone 🙂
Throughout the weekend, I teach you every detail of my training philosophy and walk you through how to set up your own training to maximize your results…I will demonstrate the most important exercises to me and will work one-one-one with you on those exercises after I demonstrate and instruct.
You are responsible for your own transportation throughout the weekend. However, feel free to stay in touch with the Jessie's Girls Training Camp group Facebook page and see if there is anyone looking to share a hotel room and/or a ride from the airport for your particular location.
If a Jessie's Girls Training Camp does not sell enough spots, you will be notified no less than 1 week before and receive a full refund in a timely manner. You will have the option to apply your registration to a different Jessie's Girls Training Camp if you choose. I regretfully cannot refund any airline, travel or accommodation costs.
Any payment you make holds your name on the official list for the Phoenix, Arizona Camp that you registered for. A $50 administration & planning fee is non-refundable at any time and applies to the payment in full and 50% deposit options. Due to our limited spaces, no Jessie's Girls Training Camp refunds are permitted within 60 days of the camp you originally registered for. I have to enforce this in order to be able to secure my host gym and numbers for all of our catering, rental spaces, and samples/goodies throughout each weekend. If an emergency arises and you need to cancel within 60 days, your registration may be moved to a future Jessie's Girls Training Camp within the current calendar year from the camp you originally registered for. A $25.00 charge to transfer a registration applies. You do not receive a refund if you cancel any Jessie's Girls Training Camp that you moved your original Jessie's Girls Training Camp date to. You may also transfer your Jessie's Girls Training Camp registration to someone else, but you are responsible for finding that person and collecting payment from them.
If you pay in full, you don't have to worry about this, obviously. But If you reserve your spot with the 50% deposit option, your balance is due 14 days before your Jessie's Girls Training Camp date – you will receive an email reminder.
- Casual, cocktail hour clothes for the Friday night Meet & Greet mixer.
- Saturday evening Jessie's Girls night out (usually just dinner & drinks) outfit
- Any fitness industry-related questions for Jessie for the Q&A session
- Proper gym workout clothes and gym shoes
- Pen & paper to take notes
- Camera (NO video taping of the workouts or talking seminars is permitted) to share all of your moments!
- Any snacks, water and/or meals you plan on eating/drinking throughout the day (you are responsible for eating breakfast before camp each day, you will have a lunch break Saturday, and you will be done each day before dinner)
- I.D. and medical info in case of emergency
- Gym towel, hair ties, hats, sunglasses, SPF
- Water
- An AWESOME attitude and a smile!

I was in my early teens when my Grandfather died. I loved him very much and was, naturally, very sad to lose him. However, I remember just how much more of a loss it seemed to be to my sister, 8 years my elder, and never really understood why, at least not until I started thinking about Grandpa recently as the time of year comes around again when remembrance poppies are everywhere and the long running and oft ill tempered debate over their use (ubiquitous on television), symbolism and message rears it's head yet again.
It's clear to me now that my sister's grief seemed to be so much deeper because she had a more mature relationship with my grandfather. For most of the time I knew him, I was very young and as such, I saw Grandpa as most young children do, another elderly relative who, whilst being very nice and generous with his chocolate, had little in common with me. Now, in my early thirties, I would give anything to be able to have him with me now, so that I could engage with him on a different level, ask him questions that would never occur to a child and discuss issues that had little relevance previously.
One thing I was aware of whilst he was still with us was that he, like so many others of his generation, had fought in the second world war. It was never discussed with me directly by either my grandfather or my parents or even any of my siblings but there was no doubt. I had seen photos of him in uniform, I had seen many medals of all kinds, and my Grandpa was also a champion shot (he shot for Scotland and I later realised that many of his medals were for sport shooting, not fighting). A young boy in possession of these facts doesn't need any more information to jump to the right conclusion. However, I never ever raised the subject of the war with my grandfather and I realise now, looking back with a different perspective, that it was because he never discussed it, or at least he never discussed it when I was around and somehow the unspoken inference that it wasn't to be discussed got through to me.
As a youngster I took this lack of discussion as unquestionable proof that my Grandpa must surely have been some kind of super secret agent who couldn't talk about what he did in the war. I don't know for certain but it is much more likely that the reason my grandfather didn't talk about the war was not because he couldn't but rather that he wouldn't.
Many claim to have the loveliest grandparents but in my case, it was proven in the way he was revered by all he met and not just his family or close friends. He was the very essence of a gentleman and as fine a man as you could ever meet. It is hard for me to imagine this lovely man ever taking part in such a terrible and violent thing as war but it goes some way to explaining why a man can have a room full of memorabilia from his time in service but is unwilling to talk about it. It is the difference between remembrance and glorification.
In the debates about the wearing of the Poppy, that line is all to frequently blurred.
This country has been fighting an awful, awful war on 2 major fronts for the best part of ten years. Whilst we may no longer be deployed in Iraq, the toll is still being paid by the men & women who returned. Not only are the wars truly awful for those fighting, they are also deeply unpopular with the public at home. No wonder then, that the issue of wearing a poppy is courting more controversy each year as many people no longer feel that to wear one is a choice but more of an obligation.
I will wear a red poppy this year, as I have every year. I will wear one because from a young age I understood why it was important to have some recognised form of remembrance for those who had died while fighting in the service of their country. Be in no doubt, they did indeed die for their country. Whether you agree with the political ends of whichever conflict they may have been engaged in, they were ordered there by the people we elected to power. Rightly, or wrongly, each serviceman or woman that dies is owed a debt of honour by us.
What I won't tolerate, however, is the almost fanatical insistence from some that not wearing one is disrespectful, offensive or in some way displays hostility to the armed forces. A friend & colleague of mine wears a white poppy and I fully support his right to do so. I understand his reasoning perfectly and support him wholeheartedly. He will also wear a red poppy on Remembrance Sunday, yet for sure there will be those who take issue with his decision or cite a lack of respect on his part, even if they don't voice it directly to him.
There should never be, in any circumstance, an order to remember the war dead in a certain way and at a certain time. Of course it is correct that there exists a day of remembrance and a symbol of it but never, should people feel bullied into observing that day or wearing the red poppy for surely that defeats the very point of fighting for personal liberties and choice?
Let's remember the original reason for the red poppy was not strictly remembrance: it was a fundraising tool. The British Legion was formed to pick up the slack where the government of the day had not, or more correctly - would not, provide adequate care for injured or retired servicemen. It evolved into the recognised symbol or remembrance some time after it was first used. The British Legion did, and continue to do a fantastic job in caring for ex servicemen and providing the support they needed. Unfortunately, nearly 70 years on and still our service personnel have to rely on charity to get the appropriate care, this time in the form of Help for Heroes.
On Remembrance Sunday, the heads of our armed forces and our political leaders will line up, with the Queen to lay poppy wreaths and the public, largely, will ignore the irony of the sight of those who sent troops to war, failed to care for them while in service and failed to care for them out of service using the poppy to show their respect whilst not doing anywhere near enough to rectify the situation that led to the poppy being adopted in the first place.
It is right that people are educated as to the sacrifices made on our behalf. It is right that people have a way of honouring their memory. It is right that people can show their objection to war. It is not right, nor never will it be, to demand it of people. Wear a poppy, don't wear a poppy. It's up to you, not me.

David Cameron and Prince William have made a dreadful mistake by dragging the poppy into sport. Whatever about William's motives there can be little doubt that Cameron has done so for political purposes. It is amusing, though not suprising, that a British Prime Minister is unaware of the diffulties the poppy could present for Norn Iron team - already losing players to the more sucessful Ireland team.
Come next November it could be case of '2 World Wars* and One World cup qualifier'.

It's like a REALLY, REALLY fun party...in the middle of winter
BIG Winter Classic was born out of an idea to celebrate Calgary year-round, not just in the fleeting summer months. We take the best and funnest people in our city and put them in a room together to create, imagine,dream, drink and play, all in the dead of winter. Because we're Calgarians and dancing underneath the heaters it's -15C outside actually sounds perfect. Arts, music and local craft beer will collide at BIG Winter Classic for a three-day winter wonderland weekend that doesn't involve getting up at 6 am and hitting the slopes. Let's not hide away this winter, let's emerge from our homes and into our community; let's re-group after the holidays and kick off the new year with glee; let's bundle up, share some homegrown beers and support our thriving music scene. It's already a classic.

FALCON HEIGHTS, Minn. (WCCO) — Seeing all the animals out here is an experience as essential as grabbing a Pronto Pup, visitng the Grandstand or eating Sweet Martha's Cookies.
So what's the best animal exhibit in Minnesota? You voted to send Natalie Nyhus to the most adorable place at the fair — the CHS Miracle of Birth Center!
"The CHS Miracle of Birth Center is all about agriculture education. It's the goal of the Minnesota FFA, the Minnesota Veterinarian Medical Association and the University of Minnesota Veterinarian Medical students to teach the public all about animal agriculture through showing the miracle of birth," Leadership Development Coordinator Lavyne Rada said.
And it's incredibly popular, drawing over a million people each year.
"The second you walk in, you'll see animals and people everywhere. Right as you walk in you can see our rabbits, chicks that are hatching, ducklings that have already hatched," Rada said. "We also have goats, sheep, pigs and dairy cows that are calving."
It's just like on the farm.
"We breed them just enough before the fair so they are timed to give birth at the fair," Rada said.
For instance, pigs are pregnant for three months, three weeks and three days before giving birth.
While Natalie got some great advice from the new mothers at the Miracle of Birth Center, most people just come to see the cute babies.
"I think everyone really like to see newborn animals," Rada said. "It melts your heart every time you get to see an animal born. From the very beginning, you can't argue with the miracle of life."
The CHS Miracle of Birth Center is the most popular free exhibit on the fairgrounds. It debuted in 2001 and moved to its current location just east of the Warner Coliseum in 2006.

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and Spectroscopy (STM/STS)
Our main experimental tool is the Scanning Tunneling Microscope. Besides instruments that operate in ultra-high vacuum at room temperature we also have two instruments that work at liquid helium temperatures. These are dedicated to the investigation of electronic properties of surface and adsorbates by Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy.
Low-energy Electron Diffraction (LEED)
Whereas STM can at best help to identify surface structures a true analysis of the positions of the atoms at and near a surface needs to be done by a diffraction method. We use LEED combined with structural analysis of LEED intensity spectra to resolve the surface structure.

Beat up Sandbag
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Very nice
Very nice collab here with sandbag getting beaten up. Great style points for using non main characters of course, and the amount of hard work you all put in this... must have been hell. I would have loved to give you a four but unfortunatly there are quite a few errors here that ruined the movie a bit. the main problem was the sound, sometimes the sound blended to gether horribly (non tetris part), Huge mute spots in two of the fights scenes, and it seemed that some hits didnt register the hit sounds. If you can fix that then Ill give ya a 4. (Your golden boys in this was meta sonic and Osuka in my opinion)
Nakito...the walking dead
Rated 1 / 5 stars
well, not a terribly bad flash. The first thing I see wrong with it is its file size its ungodly way too big for the length of this thing. My guess is you put two full length songs into this and then just used the stop sounds script to seeminigly merge them. PLZ PLZ PLZ get a music program to cut the music file to the point you want to cut it off at, that way you have a much much smaller file size. The graphics were okay as you actually make some details into it and the casket. Also, this thing is just way to short to matter much, please add to the story and fix the music if you resubmit it.

Not bad at all.
Not too bad as a game. It took me a while to understand what to do but after I learned, it was smooth sailing and fun. by the way, to all who wonder why the pumps do not carry the liquer on up, the first pipe to connect to the barrel must TOUCH THE TOP. It was made clear in the instructions if you saw them.
Breakout v1.10
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Its getting better. A few suggestions like the other people.
1)Either add choices for backgrounds or have background change every few levels.
2)as said before, more realistic ball movement (this is a biggie).
3)Add more music, YOU BETTER KEEP KARINKA!!!!! (love tetris music but add a choice of music to play.
Keep the falling bricks, thats good.
some bonuses you can put to make this better:
1)bonus items that effect gameplay.
2)add the option of a mute button
3)choices of balls and/or panel.
Excellent suggestions, cheers. Look out for the next version, I'll try to get everything thats suggested in.
Turret Defense
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
This was a great game! Loved it and also brought back memories of starcraft. Personally though, I think u should make more of the PAD type of games then defender, more fun! And for those complaining of the save feature, dont cheat but when u lose just start the game over and when u are on the field, press ENTER, ull skip to the next level, just skip to where u last died. I had to do that for lvl 2 4 times... dam lvl. Oh well. Ill wait to see more.

Many of your pieces have touched me deeply; this one definatly had emotion tied to it. I don't know what you plan to do from here on out, but I wish you the best of luck.
I hope very much that i can get my music to be played in movies/games or at least get signed and me able to sell my songs. Im glad that my music has made an impression, an artist always looks forward to hearing that his work has moved someone in some way.
Thanks for the review, and the wish of luck ^^

text: Our new gas tank skid plate is a cover-up style skid plate that bolts over the factory skid plate. This skid plate simply bolts on right over the original so you don't have to drain your gas tank and remove it. That makes the installation a snap! Normal installation time is less than an hour. They are made from 3/16" thick steel on the bottom and sides, and come powder coated in semi-gloss black. We have one installed on our project TJ Rubicon with a D44 rear axle and it works great!


text: I was itching to lay hands on the Linea 2012 immediately post the launch. Today I had a chance to take the Linea 2012 for a spin along with fellow TFI'ans ramjn and sathya_sc. So here's a short review from myself, ramjn and sathya_sc will add more. The good *Looks beautiful in the oceanic blue shade *No more scrapping even whilst fully loaded with 5 adults on board *Ultra soft clutch *Reduced NVH *Same old handling & excellent steering feedback *Improved plastics and rubber beading's at few places *Improved air-conditioning The Bad * Fit & Finish still not so great at few places eg. Glove box, Horn pad, front quarter glass chrome strips * Doesn't have a monster of engine Let's look into each of the improvements what Fiat has got on board and how it affects us in real life Improved ground clearance The Linea now stands at 185mm which is almost 24mm more than previous version, The increase is due to a suspension upgrades and 16" alloys from the T-Jet. The Linea earlier was an mellowed Italian beauty, but looks like ready to charge with the increased presence. The immediate feedback was that she has lost her charm a bit, But I think we need to consider that our roads aren't exactly autobahns and we expect unmarked speed breakers to what not in our Indian roads. Whilst unladen there is a bit of gap in the wheel well clearly visible, however with people on board it doesn't seem to be visible at all. That emotion variant now is shod with 205/16/55 tires and the wheel well can easily accommodate 17", but the rear wheel well seems to have protrusion which the tires may rub against if going for higher profile tires. Once you get into the drivers seat you get more of commanding view, but not like the SUV's though :wink:. The car was driven around mostly with 5 people on board and not a single time we scrapped her underbelly. Also we didn't really care about the potholes as we literally glided over without having to do zig-zag maneuvers. This to me a big improvement because even now whilst taking unknown roads I'm afraid about scrapping my car, with this GC I'm sure we can conquer Leh with ease. Handling & Ride Quality We all know that Linea was the benchmark for Ride & Handling. I'm happy to say that it's still the benchmark in it's segment. The suspension has gone a bit stiffer in order to aid the handling, But it's not as stiff say 1.6 S. Your backbenchers will never complain, although we didn't get a chance to do triple digit speeds at regular city speed the undulations were masked very well. We took couple of S bends and she took it without drama, although whilst ramjn was putting it through the corner I was scared at the rear seat :grin:. One thing I noticed is the steering felt lighter than my Punto - ramjn and sathya_sc confirmed it's actually the same in their cars as well. Interiors We all know that the Fiat's interior is most cribbed due to the Plastic quality. The Linea now gets the T-Jet grade plastics, it looks good now although not matching the Vento's which is a benchmark for myself. The chrome near the Airbag area rather looks nice, may be the actual facelift will give some better looking interiors. However there are areas where the overall quality has improved example the rubber beadings. See the below picture and you will understand The Linea Diesel emotion also gets Leather upholstery from T-Jet and three headrests at the rear. If you remember the Linea initially came with 3 head rests and later reduced to 2, But the Dynamic and Active will still only get 2 head rests. Other Improvements The NVH has definitely been reduced at the optimum temperature. This was confirmed by Sathya_sc and ramjn post comparison with ramjn's 10K run Linea MJD. Check the below video, you can rather hear the diesel hum than the clatter. Inside the cabin we didn't find much of difference may be because the Linea was already a silent one. The Air-conditioning was also felt to be better than the previous versions, But honestly we didn't care a lot because the existing one's where already a chiller. The Linea emotion also gets Goodyear NCT5 tires instead of the bog standard GT3, these tires are from the original T-Jet's again. Should be hopefully better than the GT3's. Fit & Finish There are few things which Fiat can't probably do perfect, Whilst these are not really serious and wouldn't be noticed by layman they didn't escape from the eagle eye's of TFI'ans. Look at the chrome alignment between the front doors and front quarter glass The glove box and horn pads still had bit of gaps which has certainly reduced from the initial versions, but still are not completely eliminated. The international version also seems to have the same issues, may be the GP EVO wouldn't have these issues. Overall everyone agreed that it definitely seems like a improvement without loosing Fiat's legendary handling. However the Prices quoted seems to be a bit high for the 1.3 Motor. The Linea Diesel emotion stands at 10.7 Lakhs on-road, I personally feel it should be priced around 30k lesser. But the price hike may be justified with additional features like 16" alloys, Automatic wipers & headlights, but they don't cut it for me. Fiat please bring the 1.6 MJD with awesome torque, this chassis really begs for more power. Thanks to ramjn & sathya_sc for their inputs and also Ramanan from Concorde who gave us an extensive test drive on the vehicle. Attaching the brochure - Thanks ramjn for scanning them.

Hermosa Beach, CA (PressExposure) December 31, 2009 -- Marriage ranks as a very low priority among New Yearâs Resolutions in the U.S. even though an alarming number of couples describe their marriage as unhappy and are worried more than ever about divorce, or being stuck in an unhappy marriage for the rest of their lives.
The top New Yearâs resolutions for 2010 are entirely focused on self-help. This would not ordinarily be a problem, but because marriages involve another person, leading marriage counselors and educators are shocked that more couples remain so singularly focused; and so dangerously unaware that by not committing to resolve their marital problems in 2010, they put their entire familyâs happiness at risk.
According to more than a dozen published surveys, 2010âs top ten popular New Year's Resolutions include:
1. Lose weight 2. Enjoy life more 3. Quit drinking 4. Stop smoking 5. Get organized 6. Learn something new 7. Get out of debt 8. Spend more time with the family 9. Help others 10. Get more fit
"This is astonishing and very sad! Divorce remains at pandemic levels, husbands and wives are fiddling in the New Year while their marriage burns," exclaimed Jeff Ullman, CEO of HappierCouples.com, the worldâs first relationship coaching and concierge service for couples. âWe have two choices: change the conversation from all about "ME", to "WE" or risk being divorced or married for a very long time.... unhappily. Why not make a New Year's resolution to make marriage a priority in 2010? This is not about spending more time with âthe familyâ. Itâs about spending time with your spouse; itâs about doing whatever it takes to make your marriage happy, passionate and thriving! Does anyone wonder why January remains the month with the highest number of divorce filings?â
A survey conducted by HappierCouples at the end of 2008 and again in 2009, suggests an even more dire prediction among married couples in 2010. Of the 300 couples surveyed, 68% admit they are stuck in an unhappy marriage, but have made no resolution to fix their marriage in 2010. âCouples are in denialâ, said Cindy Ullman, HappierCouples Co-Chief Happiness Partner. âWe will see an increase in addictive behaviors as alternatives to unfulfilled relationships. It wonât just be unhappy couples; it will be a generation of unhappy children raised in unhappy marriages."
The Ullmans recommend 25 resolutions to make 2010 a couplesâ happiest relationship ever. Here are five:
Couples Resolution #1: Make a list of everything that makes your spouse happier and do them no matter what. Couples Resolution #2: Whenever you leave for extended hours apart, give each other a special loving gesture. Couples Resolution #3: ABC (Always Be Courting). Remember how you felt when you dated. So, put your date on your calendar and stick to it. Whether itâs night or day, do something fun. Alternate whose choice it is. Couples Resolution #4: Stop doing something that makes your spouse unhappy. (You know what it is, so cut it out!) Couples Resolution #5: Create and keep practicing your own unique rituals, whether itâs pet names, expressions, insider jokes, or anything that only the two of you hold precious.
Industry experts predict that unless more New Yearâs resolutions and the commitments that follow contain the word âweâ instead of âmeâ, 2010 will likely see more divorces and millions more unhappy spouses in unhappy relationships.

The Anchorage, Alaska Municipal Pretrial Diversion Program: An Initial Assessment
Cory R. Lepage & Jeff D. May
Pretrial diversion programs have the potential to prevent future criminal behavior through intervention and community based services. This may be particularly true for specific populations of offenders such as those with mental illness, substance abuse disorder, and those with co-occuring disorders. Pretrial diversion programs take low-level offenders out of the jail population, both reducing system overpopulation and costs of incarceration. The programs also provide speedy case processing for minor crimes resulting in savings to the court system and personnel. Pretrial diversion can help an offender avoid a criminal conviction and potentially avoid future criminal violations. Results indicate that most Anchorage pretrial defendants comply with and complete the pretrial conditions in a very short time period, an additional savings in case processing time. This research details the initial assessment of the Anchorage Municipal Prosecutor Pretrial Diversion program. This assessment examines system savings in time and money, as well as policy implications for the justice system that may assist other jurisdictions as they consider implementing a pretrial diversion program.
Truth and Reconciliation Commissions: A Needed Force in Alaska?
Heather Parker
Truth and Reconciliation Commissions are official, temporary bodies used for communities to come to terms with past violence, promote education and awareness of historic trauma, and to provide recognition and closure for victims and successors. By bringing past issues to light, such commissions promote healing and allow these communities to move forward. Although the Commission on Truth and Reconciliation in South Africa after the Apartheid-era is best known, several similar commissions have been established throughout the globe and within the United States. This paper compares commissions from South Africa, El Salvador, South Korea, and Canada with those that have been established in the United States to examine whether such a commission would be useful in Alaska to address current social problems in the state.
The Economic Loss Doctrine in Alaska and the Design Professional Exception
Ashley K. Sundquist
The economic loss doctrine has prevented countless plaintiffs from recovering their economic losses in tort. However, over the last several decades, numerous courts have found exceptions to this doctrine. Alaska currently provides two important exceptions: the independent duty exception and the design professional exception. These two exceptions as applied provide for inconsistent results which create liability for design professionals and cut off liability for non-design professionals. Providing the same approach and analysis for all professionals creates greater consistency and predictability and provides an opportunity for design professionals to limit their exposure to negligence claims.
Children and Alaska's Permanent Fund Dividend: Reasons for Rethinking Parental Duty
Eli Kozminsky
Alaska's Permanent Fund Dividend (Dividend) is an annual payment to eligible residents derived from state investment earnings on mineral royalties. Since 1982, the Dividend has averaged a payout of approximately $1,000 annually. The Permanent Fund Dividend program allows a parent, guardian, or other authorized representative to claim a Dividend on behalf of a child. Yet Alaska law currently imposes no requirements whatsoever on how parents use a child's Dividend. This Note questions Alaska's lack of parental duty when it comes to managing children's Dividends. Part I sketches the Permanent Fund Dividend's history and motivations, the mechanics of the program itself, and the case law that has developed regarding parental duty under the program. Part II then proposes that the way in which a child's Dividend is characterized influences what sort of parental duty (if any) attaches. In Part III, a reinterpretation of the Dividend as income rightly belonging to the child is offered as a compelling alternative to current doctrine. This Note concludes that the lax treatment of a child's Dividend under current Alaska law is suspect, and argues that an income conception that imputes a higher degree of parental duty better advances the program's aims.
The Future of Challenges to the Alaskan Public School Funding Scheme After State v. Ketchikan
Kate Wheelock
In 2013, the Ketchikan Gateway Borough initiated a challenge to the Alaska public education funding scheme by paying its required local contribution (RLC) to its school district under protest. The Borough subsequently filed a lawsuit against the State of Alaska in 2014. This Note discusses the supreme court's constitutional analysis of the RLC in State v. Ketchikan. Despite extensive discussion of the RLC in the context of the Alaska Constitution's Dedicated Funds Clause, the court failed to sufficiently analyze the RLC (a critical component of public school funding) in the context of the state's responsibility for education—a duty rooted in the Public Schools Clause. This Note will argue that, unlike the challenge to the RLC under the Dedicated Funds Clause, a successful challenge to the RLC under the Public Schools Clause is a possibility. To prevent a hasty legislative response, the State should consider alternative funding schemes less reliant on RLCs before a court order demands it do so, particularly given the disparities in local contributions that are not necessarily proportional to borough revenues as well as the increased criticism of the RLC after State v. Ketchikan.

When soldiers arrive at his hometown in Cambodia, Arn is just a kid, dancing to rock 'n' roll, hustling for spare change, and selling ice cream with his brother. But after the soldiers march the entire population into the countryside, his life is changed forever.
Arn is separated from his family and assigned to a labor camp. Working in the rice paddies under a blazing sun, he sees the other children, weak from hunger, malaria, or sheer exhaustion, dying before his eyes. He sees prisoners marched to a nearby mango grove, never to return. And he learns to be invisible to the sadistic Khmer Rouge, who can give or take away life on a whim.
One day, the soldiers ask if any of the kids can play an instrument. Arn's never played a note in his life, but he volunteers. In order to survive, he must quickly master the strange revolutionary songs the soldiers demand - and steal food to keep the other kids alive.
This decision will save his life, but it will pull him into the very center of what we know today as the Killing Fields. And just as the country is about to be liberated from the Khmer Rouge, Arn is handed a gun and forced to become a soldier. He lives by the simple credo: Over and over I tell myself one thing: never fall down.
Based on the true story of Arn Chorn-Pond, this is an achingly raw and powerful novel about a child of war who becomes a man of peace, from National Book Award finalist Patricia McCormick.

Yes, because it was so enlightening as to the plight of the Cambodians in the years right after the end of the Vietnam War.
When the main character had to decide whether to kill his younger sister or leave her to die.
Truly credible for all characters.
The entire book was so depressing but I think when the main character understood why he had lived when almost everyone around him died.

I probably didn't explain it very well, but what basically happens is that the audio jacks and game port are fitted into a space in the back of the case (one where there isn't a PCI slot) and then they are plugged into some pins on the motherboard. The USB ports I mentioned at the end work in the same way, just like the second two USB ports you get with motherboards.
I am more concerned with the sound, and will test the USB ports myself at any time to see if they are any good, although they will not be USB 2.0.

Small electric shocks make giant changes in MS patient's life
Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) 32 years ago, the Council Bluffs woman's chief symptom of the debilitating nervous system disease has been difficulty walking. For a decade, she managed to work around the problem by taking daily injections of medication to slow the spread of the disease.
Then, in late February, Beckman saw a segment on The Today Show that highlighted the Bioness L300 Foot Drop System: a new piece of technology helping people with neurological conditions to walk. "The L300," as Beckman calls it, is an advanced system that acts as the nerves in patients' legs. Once they strap the device to their calf and attach a sensor to their foot, all they have to do is lift their heel. The sensor relays that message to the device, which then sends an electric pulse into the leg, stimulating it to lift the rest of the foot.
"I'd never done physical therapy before and I hadn't really tried many drugs to manage my condition," explained Beckman. "But this really stood out to me as something to try because I didn't have to worry about any side effects."
A little research and a few phone calls later, Beckman set up an appointment at Immanuel's Rehabilitation Center to try it out for herself. "I honestly thought I was going to go in, put this thing on my leg, and then walk right out of there," said Beckman.
But after ten years without adequate use, her muscles had atrophied – or partially wasted away. Even with the stimulation of the L300, Beckman was barely able to walk up a few stairs.
Over the next few weeks, she worked hard to rebuild the muscle mass she'd lost over the years – and even harder to retrain them to walk. Before a month of therapy had passed, she reached a milestone: "I climbed up two flights of stairs really without much effort at all."
Beckman now has an L300 of her own, which she will rely on as long as she is able to walk. Unlike some stroke patients, who use the device as a tool to regain their ability to walk on their own, people with MS will never be able to walk without the support of the L300 or other tool. "Due to the nature of multiple sclerosis, devices like this will never give Margaret her nerves back," explains Jessica Wissink, Alegent Health physical therapist. "The electric pulses will, however, act as her nerves and they will strengthen her gait quality."
"I know that this isn't going to actually improve my disease. But it is going to facilitate it," said Beckman. "In the end, I just hope to one day have enough strength to walk without a limp."
The L300 does not work for all patients; anyone interested should contact their physician to see if they qualify. For more information about this or any other rehabilitation services provided by Alegent Health, call Lead Physical Therapist Sharon Malick at (402) 572-2065.

I usually use hot soapy water with a touch of bleach in and try to do it twice a year in the autumn and again in the Spring before it starts filling up with seedlings. The soapy water gets rinsed off with a power spray. Never had any major infestations and haven't used a sulphur candle.
I also wash down the potting bench and wash all my pots.
Good for you Perki, I really struggled with my GH during the build, had to take it down first and then rebuild it in a new home as it was second hand...but onward and upward...happy growing...
After tracking a garden order, I waited in half the morning for the delivery, then mid morning went to have my hair done leaving the neighbour on full alert for the delivery. Was ever so disappointed when it didn't arrive so contacted the delivery service, they want to charge an extra £12 to deliver on Saturday making delivery costs £17.99......and they could not give a day or time next week when they can deliver...not a happy bunny......have just e-mailed the company to say how disappointed I am, the order is on it's way back and hope this can be resolved as I really have enjoyed shopping with them.
On a more positive note it's been blue skies here in the NW. Received an e-mail to say I'm on an allotment list of only 5/6 people...and spoke to another and am being considering for a shared allotment...
little-ann - all three have just gone on my places to visit, I'd heard of the one in Beetham but not visited, all within a short drive too.. Do you like wildlife, Brookholes is a good place to visit, there are walks round the reserve. but we are going right off topic now...
I'm the nurseries will all sell spuds though...
little-ann - you must mean the one on Ashton Road, the book sections well worth a look in and the cafe sells nice cakes. There are two nursery/farm shops just past Garstang on A6 which maybe worth a look in when next in the area.
I like Hayes GC in Ambleside
Clueless - Think I may have watched the programme. The spray was used on hosta's in the garden to repel slugs and snails, not to prevent damping off.
Haven't got a spray recipe but vermisculite helps prevent damping off, a thin layer on sowed seeds allows light in for germination but will help prevent the stems from getting to wet/moist when they germinate by absorbing excessive moisture which it then releases as the compost dries. Watering from underneath also helps to prevent damping off, and you'll know when to stop watering because when vermisculte becomes saturated it changes colour and will be darker.
When potting up new seedlings you don't need to cover all the compost in the pot just ensure vermisculite is around the stem.
Garlic spray however is ever so effective for detering slugs and snails if started early, in March, before the little critters start appearing
Sarcoccoca another good one, not so sure about honeysuckle Verdun, I have trouble growing honeysuckle in the back garden so don't hold up much hope for the front
little-ann, It's at The Friends Meeting House, Meeting House Lane, Lancaster. It's not a big fair though 4 to 5 varieties tops of salad, 1st, 2nd and main crop spuds.
It's within walking distance for me but unless you planned to do something else in the area you'd be disappointed if travelling from Lakeland South just for the spud fair. A fair sounds good but grand this one isn't, it's abit like an old bring and buy sale, you'd get round the Lancaster one 5 to 10 mins. Some of the bigger fairs offer 90 or more varieties, so wouldn't recommend you travelled any distance just for the Lancaster one.
The fair was advertised on the internet but now the date is advertised in the local paper the week before, sometime in January on a Saturday. I look to buy old varieties and then do a recci of the GC's and nursery's in the area after the fair. The date hasn't appeared yet.
I agree with landgirl but whilst keeping them in a place which is frost free make sure the place is not to warm either, heat will encourage them to think it's nearly planting out time and they could grow long and spinderly when you want short shoots.
I keep mine in the spare bedroom, out of direct sun light, so not on the window ledge, where it can get quite warm in the sun, even on winter days and turn the radiator off.
Thanks Patsy, just checked out Mahonia and am quite taken by it, very seasonal, cuttings would make a nice table decoration at Christmas and it flowers from November to March.

When an email came in from Duke's associate dean for medical education asking Duke Anesthesiology's Dr. Nancy Knudsen to be the distinguished speaker at this year's Hippocratic Oath Ceremony at the Duke University School of Medicine graduation, she had to catch her breath.
"I was sitting next to my mom when I received the email and I couldn't believe that I had been asked to speak at such an occasion. I immediately thought, I'll never have this feeling again," says Dr. Knudsen. "I was honored but wondered why they chose me," she jokes.
According to Dr. Caroline Haynes' email, the advisory deans extended the invitation to Dr. Knudsen because she is so well-regarded by the administration and the medical students, along with being known for her "wonderful approach to teaching and the care of patients." Together, they thought Dr. Knudsen would deliver an inspirational speech, leaving the graduates with "a message to hold onto."
And that she did. On Friday, May 13, Dr. Knudsen delivered an emotional yet humorous speech (inside the newly renovated Duke University Chapel) with no shortage of celebrity spoofs. And she left the graduating class with an inspirational mnemonic, CHARGE, which stands for curiosity, humility, adaptability, respect, gratitude and empathy (watch Dr. Knudsen's full speech).
"I was honored but intimidated to think that at the end of their careers, before they start their internships, I was the one who was going to give them some of the last words of advice. It was a privilege," says Dr. Knudsen. "Before I delivered my speech, I realized in that moment that how I was feeling, is how all those students must feel before they begin their internships – scared and excited, yet hopeful."
For Dr. Knudsen, the speech was certainly a high point in her career as she joins a list of high-profile leaders at Duke who have delivered the Hippocratic Oath Ceremony speech, including Dean Nancy Andrews and Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Robert Lefkowitz. Dr. Knudsen teaches four courses for medical students. She is the course director for the fourth-year acute care curriculum, faculty member for the PRACTICE course, faculty member for the Clinical Skills course and Capstone. It's easy to see that teaching is a passion of Dr. Knudsen's; a passion that she says allows her to learn just as much from her students, if not more, than they learn from her.
"I love to think that I will have some ability to shape the way they care for their patients in the future," adds Dr. Knudsen. "I think back to the role models I have, how much they mean to me, and how they have influenced the type of doctor I've become. If I have any ability to impact the type of doctor these students will become, I feel I will have accomplished more in my career than I have ever hoped for."

Holden driver Paul Radisich has been rushed to hospital after a spectacular 150km/h crash that ended up with his Commodore flipping onto its side.
Rescue crews worked furiously to remove the New Zealander racing veteran from the stricken car.
The car slammed almost head-on into a tyre barrier, heavily damaging the left-hand side, to the point where the passenger door could not be opened.
The Commodore then landed on its right-hand side, trapping Radisich in the cabin.
Radisich was believed to be conscious during the rescue operation and he was eventually freed and taken to hospital with some understandable soreness.
He is believed to have been in good spirits but has back pain, so was taken to a Sydney hospital as a precautionary measure.
The Radisich crash was the biggest so far in the 2006 running of the legendary Bathurst 1000, which has seen a number of crashes and retirements.
At the half way point racing had been slowed five times due to a number of incidents in what is fast turning into a race of attrition.
Bathurst favourite Mark Skaife retired after just one corner when his car suffered mechanical problems and was slammed from behind by race rookie Jack Perkins, son of multiple winner Larry Perkins.
A host of other drivers, including Steven Johnson (son of Dick Johnson) also retired with damage when he slid into a wall across the top of the mountain.
The latest incident comes just two days after two drivers - Mark Porter and David Clark - were critically injured in a 180km/h impact during a V8 Supercar support race on Friday.
Both drivers remain in a critical condition, although Clark has regained consciousness and is showing signs of improvement.
At the half-way point for the 2006 race, brothers Rick and Todd Kelly were leading the Bathurst enduro in their Holden Commodore.
They were followed by two more Commodores, those of Greg Murphy/Cameron McConville and Steven Richards/Paul Dumbrell.

Datsyuk's OT goal lifts Red Wings past Oilers

EDMONTON, Alberta — The Detroit Red Wings were feeling rather fortunate to have ended up with the win on Friday night.
Pavel Datsyuk scored at 3:39 of overtime to give Detroit a 3-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers, snapping the Red Wings' three-game skid.
Datsyuk made a nice move to get past defender Jeff Petry and blasted a shot past Oilers goalie Devan Dubnyk.
"We didn't have anything to lose in that third period," Datsyuk said. "We were on the road, we didn't have any pressure, we just had to go play.
