Discussion in 'Chill Out Forum:' started by Printed_com, Oct 24, 2012.
What does everyone think of the iPad mini?
Slightly disappointing!
Screen res was expected to be honest...it was predetermined with the old iPad's, it does seem a tad low on the ppi when compared with nexus 7 or samsung tab 7.7, both with 720p screens.
It is very thin... maybe too thin (would have to hold it to see)
Overall to me it does look nicer than the iPad though. I'm not keen on the chamfered edges to the body, seems like it could be a major source of reflection on the silver body.
To me it seems overpriced for what is essentially the new ipod touch (aka the iPad 2) with a larger body and screen... if it was an a5x instead of the a5 it wouldn't be too bad price wise but personally I'd still pick the nexus 7 over it... especially if the rumoured price drop/capacity increase comes true on Monday
Mind you it doesn't matter what people (I) think, it will still sell as it has the 'apple' brand attached and I'm sure we'll see the usual marketing push..
may i ask why?
first of any new product is going to be a lower quality so that shareholders can justify the company's new spend on a product with no sales history to prove it's worth. if you want a great iPad mini it'll be next year's (e.g. look at iPhone vs iPhone 3G, and iPad vs iPad 2).
i like it, i'd use it on the tube as large iPad is not easy whilst standing.
not happy about the screen res but totally expected it for this year's.
£269 seems a lot at first but hardware feels 10x better than the plastic that is the 7" Nexus. glad there's LTE versions, don't mind that they're more expensive.
apple didn't become successful by undercutting competitors. they always made hardware that people would love to use and that would work well with existing devices and future devices. it'll be a hit because of it's quality (e.g. apple modified aluminium to create their own grade for the back shell of the iPad mini - didn't spray paint plastic like Acer or Samsung like to do)
yeah it'll sell because of the apple brand, but also because it'll be a nice product to hold and use. anyone with an existing iOS device will already have apps to use for their ipad (that are full scale 7" versions, which most of the time come part and parcel with the iPhone/iPod touch apps), so people know what they're buying on a higher level than with Android devices.
i'm surprised there's not a comment from Levi or the OP about the iPad 3 being replaced already... after 6 months... bit of a d*ck move if you ask me!
Anyway as a long time early adopter of all apple products I'm feeling very disappointed that they've chosen to upgrade the iPad just months after the previous release.
Also the iPad mini is the first time apple has made a 'defensive' release. A 7" tablet is hardly progressive and is clearly there to answer the likes of the nexus. It should have been cheaper too there's no doubt in my mind about that.
That wasn't part of the original question and I'm keeping on topic
Can't say I like it either but it had to come at some point (lightning port) and like some sites are pointing out the refresh cycle is now hitting the 'holiday' season so I'd say it's likely a more 'money' orientated move.
Um... Squiddy/Greg I think mcskillz broke the forum lol
Edited from my phone and it's went mental!
totally agree with all that you've said except the price point.
all the other manufacturers have admitted that they make 0 profit off the devices and rely on their app/book stores to make any money on them. if anything, this is the main reason why in 2 years Apple will have a large majority of 7" device market share. apple are in for the long haul, but aren't going to screw up their own business in the mean time.
think about it like this: if Amazon and Acer are making 7" tablets that look and feel like sh*t and they're not making a profit on them, why would Apple be able to undercut them with better hardware?
Jobs always said that 7" tablets were dumb, and i mostly agree, but i have no doubt that the cheaper end of the tablet market is so exploitable and open right now, that Apple could jump in and forget their previous principles.
didn't you say that about the first iPad?
more than likely, because that's what it was, it still is
In this case though it's even more true
The new ipod touches (the one with the lanyard) use the a5 dual core processor to run the 4" 1136x640 (727,040pixels) display, the iPad mini (and old ipad 2) uses the same a5 dual core processor to run the 8" 1024 x 768 (786,432) pixels of it's display. So they have the same processor, I'll assume same ram but different screen res/sizes and a slightly larger case (I'll assume the battery is bigger too) which basically equates to the iPad mini being a bigger ipod touch
The new new iPad (iPad 4) uses the a6 processor and the old new iPad (iPad 3) uses the a5x which could have been used as a major selling point as the a5x would have given similar performance to the a6 on the mini due to the lower res etc. Now the mini will realistically perform equally or worse (more pixels to push) than the ipod touch (assuming equal clocks etc).
It's probably part of the reason the iPad mini was being pushed as more of a 'reader' than a gaming machine, which like you've alluded to is likely ideal for places the tube, part of the reason the nexus 7/kindle have probably taken off is due to the idea they fit in your pocket easily for 'travel'.
Having said all that... IF I was to grab an iPad of any sort (say for checking out my website on, an expensive purchase for literally one thing) I'd be grabbing a iPad 3 from the refurb store or 'sales' that will soon happen. All the retina display with the old universal socket and no real issue with performance for the foreseeable future.
Oh and did anyone notice the size of the hand used in iPad mini promotional images... he has the longest fingers ever lol
Yeah I noticed those E.T fingers on the ads!
I think the mini looks great, only downside for me is the price. If this was £200 for the 16GB I would have bought one for my girlfriend for xmas. Right now I think the best thing would be to go for the 9" with the superior internals for an extra 140 quid. Better in the long run, I think the mini will be seriously dated in 3 years just like the iPad 1.
This will fly off the shelf either way.

overlooked and powerful tool of diplomacy. The meal that I share with
my counterparts at home and abroad cultivate a stronger cultural

Boston Pops joins Sox for new baseball CD
From the Associated Press
The Boston Pops is going from the concert hall to the baseball diamond.
The orchestra is releasing the "Red Sox Album" on April 6, baseball's opening day, in partnership with the team.
The CD includes baseball standards like "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" and the movie score from "The Natural."
(Courtesy Photo)
Other songs are beloved by Red Sox fans, including "Sweet Caroline," sung during every game at Fenway Park, and the Dropkick Murphy's "I'm Shipping Up to Boston," soundtrack to closer Jonathan Papelbon's goofy Irish jig.
The crack of David Ortiz's bat can be heard during John Philip Sousa's "National Game March."
Conductor Keith Lockhart said Thursday he wanted to make the album because he'd "been thinking it would be really great to tie two of Boston's great traditions together."

Discussion in 'College Tennis Talk' started by Clemson_tennis, Jan 31, 2012.
Clemson won 4-1.
There were no livescore?
Nope. All the Blue-Gray site says (long after the match was over) is that Clemson won doubles and 4-5-6 singles (Ansari-Sanon-Johnson) and Lovett of Alabama beat Harrington at #1 singles.
Interesting lineup from Clemson. I'll be interested to see what the scores were
finally the match scores
So good performance from the bottom of the line-up. I think that I like the new line-up. Johnson can get back into form at 6 while the peaking Sanon can get some wins at 5. Drake and Ansari swap is also good one.
It could have been 6-1 had it been played out. I don't know what was up with Harrington though.
Now vs Princeton?
Yes and need to win. But the more vital match will be tomorrow vs either Texas Tech or USF
Down early in doubles
Well I wasn't expecting a drubbing at the hands of Princeton
Down in singles early
Clemson trying to turn it around in set 2 on courts 4-6.
Princeton twitter is way ahead of blue gray live scoring
Livescore is crap again
Clemson just Bad or is ivy that Strong now? Columbia Harvard Penn Princeton.
I don't know if I would say Clemson is "just bad." They just aren't very good.
The bottom 1/3 of the SEC, on the other hand, is "just bad."
Clemson would be in the bottom third of Sec
I'll tell you what is just bad. Luke Johnson's play this season. Also Harrington's play this weekend.
Hmm..without fun...but i think Clemson should Do better with this players. .
No scores today?
I ve no scores right now are they playing?
The matches are being moved to Auburn. I imagine they are delayed till later but information has been scarce
Updates non-existent
I allways look for it But nothing there
cannot remember from last years that its so Bad
Clemson has no one out there i think?
The twitter person must not go with the team. I wonder why the manager can't do it, that's what I did when I was the manager.
Oh you were with the team? Thats great.
Right now their twitter waits for the livescore. ..
They went on court singles first but had to go back off because of rain. It was "tight".
Info I just got in a text
Hunter lost,
Alex up set 2-4 in 2nd,
Hampton split 1-2 in 3rd.
Austin set down 3-4 on serve 2nd,
Luke tiebreak for 1st,
Daffra up set 0-1 2nd.
Info straight from the source.
Clemson has chance s in this one
Dojas was up 5-3 in the 3rd about to clinch but Augusto has rallied and now leads 6-5 in 3rd.
3-1 tech overall. Sanon just dropped the 2nd set
Now a 3rd set breaker on 2.
Augusto takes it! Shades of last year's clutchness from him on display there.
Now Clemson needs Sanon to win to send this to doubles. He's up 3-1 in 3rd.
Doubles will decide this one.
A rankings catastrophe saving win today over Texas Tech. Augusto came up big.
Ranking the top 6 based on their play in the blue/gray:
1. Alejandro Augusto - great weekend did him. He needed this. One of the main reasons why the team has struggled this year is because of his regression in results from last year to this year. But this win from 3-5 down in the 3rd over Dojas harkened back memories of the clutch wins over South Carolina and FSU last year. Not to mention he was the only one who led at the time of the Princeton abandonment and was about to close out a win vs Alabama too.
2. Daffra Sanon - at #2 after the good 3 set win over Zambon and also had a straight forward win vs Bama. Trailed vs Princeton but he didn't lose it. Good to see him finding his groove in the lineup.
3. Luke Johnson - had two wins this weekend over TxTech and Alabama. Lost vs Princeton. #6 is a better spot for him now it looks like
4. Austin Ansari - didn't have a good weekend overall
5. Hampton Drake - despite early good signs Drake has yet to have any significant win this year.
6. Hunter Harrington - he will want to forget about this weekend in a hurry. 3 straight set losses, 2 of which to players ranked below him.
nice win for the team !
I see Texas Tech as a team that could and will play in NCAAs , so Clemsons win is even bigger for NCAAs. TTech has a lot of decent wins vs Likes MSU, Auburn, New Mexico, UCI, Rice.
How would you rank the performance of the first half of the season?
1. Sanon
2. Harrington
3. Ansari
4. Augusto
5. Johnson
6. Drake?
I think that's probably about right. It feels a little bit harsh to put drake at 6, being a freshman playing higher and higher on the team and he hasn't been killed in any match, but he also hasn't won any important match so 6 is the only acceptable slot for him.
Sanon really has been the only standout thus far this year. Everyone else has only been good in spots
Johnson ahead of Drake? Drake is a five-star freshman who is being forced to play too high in the lineup because of rather weak progress from teammates. Against Texas Tech, he played #3 while Johnson got his big three-set win at #6. More Drakes and fewer Johnsons on the roster would be an improvement.
Thats true Clark. A positive about Drake is that he hasn't had a lopsided loss yet, he competes. I think he should be playing 4, Ansari's chances if winning don't really go up by moving down while Drake's might
Strange open weekend before ACC play now. GT isn't ranked so there aren't a lot of ranking win chances coming up. This weekend would have been good to play a North Florida or South Alabama or Old Dominion or something.
why does Clemson not play Georgia anymore?
Because Georgia refuses to come to Clemson to play and Clemson isn't a mid-major school. Got tired of not getting a visit back from the Bulldogs.
Yannick Maden beat Connor Smith 6-2 6-2 in a Florida future quarterfinal. He's into the semis
I think it's more about the poor sportsmanship Clemson showed the last couple of times they played Georgia.
Huh? What poor sportsmanship? Only thing I can think of was Willems vs Pasha 3 years ago, but Clemson went back to UGA the year after that.
Georgia Tech tomorrow. Don't like this match. Won't get anything for winning and could very lose which would be a loss to an unranked team. GT has the capability to beat Clemson. Hopefully the home court plays a factor.
Segura down at 6 for GT
Match is being held indoors for some reason even though it's sunny and not windy. It's 53 degrees. It should be outdoor
Harrington/Johnson were up 7-4 and now it's 7-7. Tiebreak will decide doubles point
Clemson loses the tiebreak 14-12. That hurts going Into singles. Completely blew the doubles point there.
Uphill but still Chance. Momentum goes to gtech

Wessex FM News
Concerns Over Amputations Among Dorset Diabetes Patients
8:16am 8th December 2014
(Updated 8:20am 8th December 2014)
Dorset County Hospital is promising to continue improving services for people suffering from diabetes who develop problems with their feet.
Concerns have been raised by Diabetes UK about the number of leg amputations be carried out on patients in West Dorset.
A few years ago the number was around 40 a year, but that's fallen in the last 12 months to 10.
The Hospital says service improvements have already made a difference and diabetes consultant Dr Adeel Ghaffar says more developments are planned.
He told Wessex FM: "We have two new vascular consultants and I joined the diabetes team this year. We are really starting to see the benefits of the changes we have made since the summer.
"We now have a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) of professionals dedicated to the foot service.
"That team includes a diabetes consultant, vascular consultants, podiatrists, orthotists, an orthopaedic consultant, orthopaedic practitioners, microbiologists and radiologists.
"We discuss cases together and hold a fortnightly clinic for patients which acts as a one-stop shop, so there are fewer separate waits and referrals. This reduces clinic attendances by as much as two thirds as the patient can see all the relevant specialists on one occasion. The whole process is now much quicker and effective for patients - the patient is very much at the centre of everything we are doing. Patients now wait two weeks to see a vascular consultant in a dedicated clinic rather than previously waiting several weeks. Prompt decisions can be made and potentially limb-saving treatment expedited.
"Although we are pleased with the progress we have made, we know there is still a lot of work to do. We currently run a foot clinic four days a week. We want to increase that to five and reduce waiting times further. We also don't currently have a podiatrist who sees patients in hospital so we are hoping to put that service in place too.
Dr Ghaffar explained why diabetic patients often have problems with their feet and why sometimes this can lead to amputation.
He said: "Dorset has been highlighted as having high amputation rates in the past, but our rate is coming down significantly thanks to the improvements in services. We were seeing around 30 to 40 leg amputations a year in West Dorset several years back - in the last 12 months we have had 10.
"Unfortunately there will always be amputations because sometimes people don't seek treatment early enough because of the nature of the symptoms. Also, the underlying problems caused by the diabetes and poor circulation means that even with the best care, in some patients there is little that can be done to prevent an amputation.
"Diabetes is associated with nerve damage and the longest nerves are affected first. The feet become numb so you don't have pain to tell you something is wrong with your feet if you get injured. Pain is important in protecting your feet from harm. A patient may get a blister or ulcer which becomes infected. If that infection gets to the bone before any treatment then it can lead to amputation.
"With diabetes you will also often have a poor blood supply so when you get an injury the blood flow doesn't increase as it should and you don't heal well.
"It's really important that people with diabetes check their feet every day, looking for breaks in the skin, and seek medical attention promptly regardless of whether they think the foot problem is serious or not."
Diabetes Telephone Helpline Extended
As part of the improvements for patients with diabetes, the Diabetes Nurse Specialists are extending their telephone advice service to include weekends and bank holidays. If people are unwell or have concerns about their diabetes over the weekend when they cannot access advice from their GP or practice nurse, they can call the diabetes team on 01305 255342 between 8am and 5pm.
Diabetes Nurse Specialist Lisa Clark said: "Often when people with diabetes are unwell their blood glucose is very different from their usual patterns. This can lead to very high sugars or hypoglycaemia, neither of which are good for people with diabetes and can lead to problems that may require admission to hospital.
"A Diabetes Nurse Specialist will also be available to the Emergency Department at DCH and the admissions ward over the weekend so that we can support people in managing their diabetes and avoid them being admitted to hospital and get them home promptly and safely."
The number of people diagnosed with diabetes in the UK has increased to more than 3.2 million this year and it's one the leading causes of amputation of the lower limbs throughout the world.

MICHELLE MEYER: The 4 Hot Housing Topics You Need To Watch
Bloomberg TV via YouTubeSome experts are willing to argue that the housing market has begun a slow, long recovery. Home prices have been increasing, inventory has declined, and demand is picking up. All of this in turn is creating room for more construction.
But housing isn't expected to be strong enough to support the economy, writes Bank of America economist Michelle Meyer.
"National home prices have bottomed, but we expect prices to retest these lows early next year," according to Meyer. "We look for prices to essentially move sideways through next year."
Nonetheless, housing plays an important role in the economy. And in her latest research note to clients, Meyer points out 4 "hot topics" in housing in the past month. These issues will continue to play an important part in the housing conversation.

From the Publisher
The Secret Garden (1911) is a novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett. It is the story of little Mary Lennox, a girl who'd grown up in India spoiled by her servants, whose primary job it was to be seen and not heard. When Mary's parents die, she is sent to live in England with her uncle, a crotchety old widower. At first blush Mary is a spoiled, self-absorbed brat - she grew up unloved and unwanted, and is certainly "quite contrary." When she discovers behind high walls a mysterious and unkempt garden on the manor's property, her imagination and emotions begin to awaken.
Mary's ability to grow and change after losing everything make it even more profound than a fairy tale. The other characters help her along: one is a good and healthy adult-child relationship, another helps her to recognize and develop her sense of empathy for her fellow kind, and a third teaches her about beauty and a love of nature. The power of this work to portray strong characters overcoming adversity, while charming and filling readers with imagination, has made The Secret Garden a cherished book for a 100 years.

Be Careful What You Wish For.
Sunday, January 10, 2010
Last week I bloged about not being on line much during December and how I was trying to answer all the emails that had piled up because I did not set the new message notification to OFF while I was so busy elsewhere.
Well on Friday, I finally got through all the "new" messages. I thought that was great until I realized that I had not received any of my regular emails for Friday. No Recipe of the Day, Wellness email, Exercise email, or Food Showdown, etc.
I went into my email preferences only to discover that all these things had been turned OFF. as in unticked, unchecked, unselected. Now they were all received the day before and I had not been in there to change the settings since, so what caused them to turn OFF? I reset all the selections,and hit save. It told me that it had saved my requests.
Then I went to the community boards and found a thread where someone else had not received thier emails either, so I added my 2 cents worth. I got the usual jargon of how when the system gets a returned email, it automatically removes your name from the list, but never really answered my question about how some items were deselected............ I know the system automatically takes your NAME off the email list, but does it also deselect items in your email preference.s If so, why would it not deselect all the emails (like the condition centre emails, etc)
In the meanwhile, I asked a friend to send me a message - received it. Went to another email account I have with a different carrier - I received it. I also received some daily emails that I get from various other sites. So it appears the problem is only with Spark emails....
I expected to start receiving emails from Spark againafter resetin and resaving my preferences. ( I know there should have been at least 3 because I had 3 new sparkmails during that waiting time but did not get the email notification.) But nothing came.
So back to the community board and asked for suggestions. Response: "Either talk to my email provider or get a new email address."
I opted for a new email address as a temp measure. I wanted to make sure I got all the messages over the weekend, and I will try to contact my email carrier on Monday.
In the meantime, until I get my regular email up and running again, I am trying to reconnect with the idiocyncrocies of this other provider.
We Careful What you Wish For. You may just get it and it's not what you wanted afterall....

Spider-Man feeds hungry in Birmingham
AN UNIDENTIFIED 20-year-old man is patrolling the streets feeding the homeless – dressed as Spider-Man.
During the day the wannabe action hero pulls pints in Birmingham city centre, but once darkness falls he dons the Marvel comic book inspired outfit to hand out sandwiches to rough sleepers.
His actions have caught the public's imagination, however he says he just wants to raise awareness about people living on the street.
Spider-Man – not his real name – said: "The first time I went out, the people I handed the sandwiches to had a massive smile in their face.
"Passers-by would ask for a photo, when I told them what I was doing, they would say that's really cool."
The man, who refuses to reveal his identity, said friends believe he looks similar to Peter Parker, the high school student behind the mask in the comic books.
The do-gooder even admits to buying a sarnie from Tesco and getting into his costume to hand out the snack to people.
He added: "It sounds surreal. When I go home I have to look in the mirror and say 'I'm not Spider-Man'."
The good samaritan has been helping the hungry since he was 17 after he joined a church group handing out food.
He said: "I noticed we would get a lot of people coming up after we had run out of food.
"Even when I had nothing to give them, I used to talk to them. At least it was something for them."

For the first time in 39 years, Aquinas College in Nashville, Tennessee broke ground on new construction. Siena Hall will provide housing for 99 female students on 3.5 stories and 44,000 ft². The project also includes renovation of an academic building next door. This is the very first on-campus residence in the history of Aquina College and is the also the first stage of a planned five year, $30 million construction process that will bring additional residences and academic buildings.
Lithko Concrete Contractors provided the concrete construction with general contractor BL Harbert International. MevaDec slab formwork and the MEP shoring system were selected as the main formwork to pour the decks, assisted by MevaFlex in smaller areas. The slabs were formed with minimal filler areas. MevaDec also offers great flexibility in its ability to switch forming direction, keeping assembly fluid despite the number of concrete beams. There is no fixed grid, reducing filler areas to a minimum and it is easy to adapt to the needs of different floors.
MevaDec proved the quickest solution, providing for easy and fast setting and handling. It does not require a crane and can be set up by only two workers.
MevaFlex complements MevaDec
The MevaDec slab system includes a drop Head that allows for early stripping and cycling, reducing inventory, minimizin labor and saving money.

One of Ontario's busiest transportation corridors, Highway 400, began a major expansion project through Kings Township in late 2016. This $79.3 million dollar (CAD) project includes the widening of the highway from three to six lanes in each direction for a two mile stretch and also entails safer on and off ramps, the expansion and realignment of culverts, and the replacement of two bridges − one of them the South Canal Bridge.
The new theater is called The Otto M. Budig Theater and located in Cincinnati's Over-The-Rhine district. When completed, it will become the last section of the planned "Classical Arts Corridor" in Cincinnati, which also includes a Music Hall, School for Creative and Performing Arts, and a park.

Gothic 1 - Serious Issues Need Help!!!
View Single Post
November 26th, 2010, 14:49
It is strange indeed that only the Gothic series caused those problems.
As for me, all the Gothic games have run flawlessly although i haven't used an ATI graphics card in the whole of my gaming life span (i'm pure Nvidia) - PB also recommend Nvidia eg: as per the G3 start logo.
G1 - out of the box - runs smooth as a babies bottom.
G2 - out of the box - runs like a hot knife through butter.
G3 - last 'official' patch (no CP) - runs without a hitch.
All games were boxed retail, my best 'series' gaming experience ever.
As a gamer, it is sad but seems that we are opposite ends of the Gothic experience spectrum from what appears as no more than mere technicallities….. i offer my sincere gothic commiserations to Mondain_the_Mad.

Lord Kelvin's Machine: A Tale of Langdon St. Ives
Lord Kelvin's Machine: A Tale of Langdon St. Ives
Written by: James P. Blaylock
Published by: Titan Books
Page Count: 277
Where to buy: Titan Books, Amazon, and other fine book retailers.
Publisher's Comments:
Within the magical gears of Lord Kelvin's incredible machine lies the secret of time. The deadly Dr. Ignacio Narbondo would murder to possess it and scientist and explorer Professor Langdon St. Ives would do anything to use it. For the doctor it means mastery of the world and for the professor it means saving his beloved wife from death. A daring race against time begins…
Greetings to ill and sun-dried,
Today our own Alanna Quinn brings us a review of steampunk pioneer James P. Blaylock's novel Lord Kelvin's Machine. Enjoy!
Signed in human blood,
Sean Lee Levin
I am pleased to have a new (to me) genre of reading material to pick up, I wondered what authors were doing in the science fiction realm that could breathe new life into vintage territory Jules Verne and others have mapped into posterity. My favorite devices of this genre are the technology, properly described processes and machinery that can create a vivid narrative that suspends disbelief, keeping a story from becoming a period potboiler/melodrama. In addition to mechanics time-travel, early cryogenics and "controlled vulcanology" or causing volcanoes to activate made for interesting reading.
James B. Blaylock's Lord Kelvin's Machine was first published in 1992, not long after his previous novel Homunculus (which will be reviewed next.) Curious as to the moniker "Steampunk Legend" following his name I did a search through Wikipedia and found that in 1987, author K.W. Jeter originated or used "steam-punks" in a submission letter to Locus magazine, naming Homunculus and Tim Powers' works under the term: it is an honest and legitimate tag.
The themes in Lord Kelvin's Machine are classic: love, revenge, ambition, and a life's work. Connecting these elements is Lord Kelvin's time traveler, a machine that allows scientist/explorer Langdon St. Ives to jump through time in order to change the future, in addition to discovering things about himself that return to him his humanity, rather than his default setting as a to-the-bone scientist. The story goes through three major parts, with the final goosing up the action after the substantial build up of character and motives, notably of St. Ives and the obsessions that plague him. I enjoyed the density of the development; it engaged me visually with the story and allowed me to have more empathy even for the villains. With his manservant Hasbro and partners Jack Owlesby and Bill Kraken, St. Ives pursues his nemesis Dr. Narbondo and endeavors to prevent the doctor and his confederates from attempting to destroy the world through seismic manipulations, among other criminal pursuits. In the vernacular, a ripping yarn.
Final Thoughts:This book would be enjoyed greatly by fans of science fiction and those interested in the steampunk genre with more of an emphasis on science. I enjoyed the story immensely and am pleased to discover how far back the steampunk genre's origins went. It is very good that Titan Books has reprinted and re-released Blaylock's titles. He is worthy of rediscovery. I give this most enjoyable book four and a half out of five tentacles.

What should the average person know about science? Because science is so central to life in the 21st century, science educators and other leaders of the scientific community believe that it is essential that everyone understand the basic concepts of the most vital and far-reaching disciplines. Evolution 101 does exactly that. This accessible volume provides readers - whether students new to the field or just interested members of the lay public - with the essential ideas of evolution using a minimum of jargon and mathematics. Concepts are introduced in a progressive order so that more complicated ideas build on simpler ones, and each is discussed in small, bite-sized segments so that they can be more easily understood.
Evolution 101 provides an introduction for non-scholars to this most powerful scientific theory, covering such issues as:
This essential resource will answer the questions students and lay people have regarding evolution, and will point them on the path to further understanding.
These two volumes follow the same template, but have very different styles. The author of Cosmology 101 interweaves details of the nature of the universe with interesting narratives including the women "computers" who measured spectral lines of stars, the Copernican revolution, the impact of space-time, and the current status of Pluto. Topics include the tools and techniques of study, theories past and present, and speculations about multiverses and extraterrestrial intelligence. The authors of Evolution 101 offer superb illustrations to clarify discussion of the dynamics of the evolutionary process, including the use of simple figures with wafflesmoozers (nonexistent whimsical animals). One chapter focuses on the evidence for evolution, and another applies evolution to daily life. Appendixes include a time clock showing humans appearing just before midnight, a time line of evolutionary thought, and the products of evolution. The nature of science and its impact on culture are addressed in both books. They have carefully selected bibliographies that include a brief statement qualifying each choice. These books are not for casual reading, but even younger, motivated students should be able to gain some understanding of these topics without assistance or prior knowledge. Teachers will appreciate the depth and clarity of these two valuable additions to the library. Reviewer: Marilyn Brien

We've all been to that point, that breaking point where you are convinced that's it, I have nothing more to give. Just let me curl up in a darkened room and feel sorry for myself. As unpleasant as this point is in one's life we need moments like this to truly move to the proverbial next level. Without these breaking points we would be comfortable and we know comfort is highly overrated.
Well known football coach Mike Ditka, is quoted as saying in response to people faced with breaking point challenges " be flexible, bend, but don't break" This saying is the pivotal point that we all need to keep at the forefront our minds and write into our hearts. Believe it or not, facing situations that are deemed breaking point moments and choosing to break is actually the easy way out.
I learned some of my greatest leadership lessons from my mother. Not only was she faced with daily breaking point moments; as a single parent who lost her spouse to illness and faced with raising eight children on her own; let's say breaking point moments were the norm for her, not the exception. Yet, I noticed she wouldn't break but would demonstrate a flexibility in bending that would make the palm trees along the beaches of South America and the Caribbean appear stiff and rigid.
These are the qualities of an emotionally intelligent leader that Daniel Goleman wrote about in his book Primal Leaders: Unleashing the power of emotional intelligence. Same is true when one reads the works of authors such as Cy Wakeman in her book, The Reality-Based Rules of the Workplace; James Kouzes and Barry Posner, The Leadership Challenge: How to make extraordinary things happen in organizations. These authors and many others like them through their research into what makes great leaders, demonstrate the incredible qualities of resilience I have seen my own mother model all my life.
Why do some people faced with a breaking point situation actually break but yet others choose to bend but not break? Of course the answers to this question are many and hinge on multiple conditions some of which we will never know their true contributions.
If we were to focus on 'normal' healthy personality types ( no known health maladies) we would see the leadership and emotional intelligence practices demonstrated by people such as my own mother. In asking her about the multiple decisions she made back when we were younger and what motivated her to keep moving forward, her response has always been along the lines of, she owed it to us ( her children) not to give up.
In this simple yet powerful statement lies the answer to why certain leaders within organizations are successful in actually having willing followers while others are just out taking a walk, no followers.
Nelson Mandela described success in the most beautiful way I have ever heard, Do not judge me by my successes, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again. I think about my mother and all the great leaders with whom I am privileged to work. This is the power behind leading with the mind set that no matter how many times we might fall down that doesn't define us. What defines us are the number of times we get back up.
The next series of blogs will speak to the topic of personal responsibility and accountability.

Royals vs. Tigers - 6/17/16 MLB Pick, Odds, and Prediction
Detroit Tigers (34-32) at Kansas City Royals (35-31)
MLB Baseball: Friday, June 17, 2016 at 8:15 pm (Kauffman Stadium)
Michael Fulmer (7-1) (2.52) vs. Y Ventura (5-4) (4.93)
The Line: Kansas City Royals -102 / Detroit Tigers -108 --- Over/Under: 8 See the Latest Odds
The Detroit Tigers and Kansas City Royals clash once again late Friday night for game two.
The Detroit Tigers look for consistency after splitting their last eight games. The Tigers have scored 24 runs in their last three games and six or more runs in four of their last six games. The Detroit Tigers offense is red hot at the moment, and they've won eight of their last nine games when scoring more than three runs. Ian Kinsler leads Detroit with 83 hits, Miguel Cabrera has 39 RBI and Victor Martinez has 12 home runs. Michael Fulmer gets the ball, and he's 7-1 with a 2.52 ERA and 52 strikeouts this season. This will be Fulmer's first career game against the Royals.
USA TODAY Sports
The Kansas City Royals look for another win after winning five of their last six games. The Royals have scored 16 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in four of their last seven games. The Kansas City Royals offense has been hit or miss lately, but they have won 10 of their last 14 games when scoring more than three runs. Eric Hosmer leads Kansas City with 78 hits, Lorenzo Cain has 36 RBI and Salvador Perez has 11 home runs. Yordano Ventura takes the hill, and he's 5-4 with a 4.93 ERA and 54 strikeouts this season. Ventura is 5-0 with a 3.82 ERA and 38 strikeouts in his career against the Tigers.
The Tigers are 4-0 in their last 4 during game 2 of a series and 7-0 in Fulmers last 7 starts. The Royals are 7-2 in their last 9 during game 2 of a series and 20-9 in Venturas last 29 starts. The over is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings in Kansas City.
Ventura is due for a breakout performance as he's really struggled this season but is a far better pitcher than what he's shown. The Tigers offense is bound to cool off eventually as double-digit runs over and over isn't realistic. I'll take the home team and small line.

Valentine's Day
Valentine's day can be stressful, especially if you've been caught out with no booking, no present and worst of all - no plan. Time to get your mission boots on and pull together that perfect day. Here's a selection of low-cost ideas to help you:
Valentine's day falls on a Monday this year, why not start with a Valentine's breakfast. Surprise them with their favourite cooked or Mediterranean breakfast, plus champagne or bucks fizz, plus a morning massage and a single red rose. Embellish to taste.
Having V-day on a weekend makes a perfect opportunity to do something romantic together. It doesn't have to be expensive. Take them to your favourite place, park - or a winter walk along the beach. Or how about a cold-weather picnic? Pack sleeping bags and some umbrellas, a flask full of something warming, and a hamper with flowers. Go somewhere green and by water - or to where you first met - lay out a rug and get cosy together.
Show them how much you care by tailoring the day to their personal tastes and your personal history. Make an occasion with a few romantic gestures - sing them their favourite song, learn some cocktails and set up bar in your kitchen,decorate your house and bedroom with heart shapes, candles and photos of your favourite memories, learn a romantic poem and recite it to them over candle-lit dinner - or better yet write your own listing the things that make the special to you.
Essential and inexpensive. Try to find out her favourites - or a single red rose is always well received. It's easy to buy them but you could get her heart racing by picking them from an obliging field or garden.
Expensive presents are great, of course. We have a huge range of gadgets for him and gifts for her that would suit the occasion - but take the effort to find out what they want first (or better, what they never knew they wanted). Think about their passions, life story and hobbies. You know them best - they'll tell you what they want, if you listen carefully. And if you get stuck you can always ask their friends for help.
If you're short on time or money there is no substitute for something personal and romantic. You could write them a set of coupons for them to claim whenever they want - a back massage, foot rubs, household chores, baby-sitting, a cooked dinner... we're sure you can think of others. Alternatively, write and sign a resolution about your relationship - promise to tell them you love them every day, or never to go to sleep angry with each other, or to wake them each day with a kiss and a smile. Frame a photograph of both of you together. Bake some biscuits or flapjacks and cut them into hearts. Whatever you choose, a little effort and some good intentions go a long way
Wine & Dine your partner at home.Buy some easy-to-make but expensive ingredients – mussels, oysters, quality steak and chocolate covered strawberries are all a great aphrodisiac. Throw in a cheese course and some extra trimmings. Buy a cracking bottle or red. Select mood music. Set a table covered in hearts and candles. Dress up in formal and seductive clothes and spend a little extra time on your appearance .Write your partner a formal invitation, promising a menu of great food, a massage, and a night of passion with the chef! How about renting their favourite film on DVD if you're feeling cuddly?
Important. Exhaust them during the day (a treasure hunt, laps round the garden or some heavy household chores are recommended) so you can pack them off to bed early - or get a baby sitter if you're going out
Not recommended
Go on, be brave. There's few better times than on Valentine's day to do this. We won't prescribe how you should do this – you're on your own when it comes to where, when and how. Just make is personal and a moment to remember all your lives. We have a selection of beautiful rings to make the occasion extra special. Best of luck!
Valentine's can be stressful – but avoid complaining about the expense or the stress. It's probably better to do nothing than to grudgingly plan something half-hearted. Also – nobody likes a martyr. Don't act as if you expect to be thanked for your efforts. Give them as much attention as possible – plan some conversation topics, lock them in with your eyes, give them warm, slow smiles: there's more than one way to tell them you love them. It's important to make them laugh: a fun night in can be more romantic than being bored at a fancy restaurant.

Steve Deace, an influential Iowa radio host, endorsed Newt today saying he has a proven ability to govern and undo what the Left has done to America.
Sadly, there are only two candidates offering a real means by which to actually undo that which the Left has done to this country for the past 50 years, and not just conservative platitudes. One of those candidates is Ron Paul, but his foreign policy is naive at best and reckless at worst. The other is Newt Gingrich, who has campaigned on what I believe is the most important issue facing us as a people—the loss of the rule of law.
The Left has used unelected judges and judicial oligarchy to reinvent the American way of life, from secularism to the loss of the sanctity of life, to the redefining of marriage, the confiscation of private property, and the granting of imaginary rights. There is an entire chapter of my new book devoted to the need for conservatives and Christians to confront judicial oligarchy once and for all. I have spent the past two years of my radio program educating my audience on this issue, and was a vocal proponent of Iowa's historic judicial retention election last year, and Newt's assistance with that effort was vital.
After offering every candidate in the race the chance to show they understand the gravity of this issue, Gingrich is the only one who has demonstrated he does, and can also use the bully pulpit of the presidency to educate Americans on the need to return to the rule of law.
I understand Newt has taken positions and done things in his personal life I do not agree with, but to his credit he has come on my radio program and been very transparent about those things, and has shown humility and a willingness to be transparent in the process.
I'm willing to take full responsibility for this decision, just as I hope those that have chosen to support other candidates who themselves have fatal flaws are willing to do the same. It is my hope the other Republican candidates will follow Gingrich's bold leadership in providing the country a true alternative to President Obama.
It is my prayer that next year that for once we actually have something to vote for, and not just something to vote against. I am making this endorsement in the hopes that will be the case. Sometimes the most broken people are the ones God does the most tremendous work through. I know that has been true in my life.

Rarely can a rugby league book have required such research and dedication, but in The King of Brilliance author Graham Morris has produced a work that is worthy of its subject – the early 20th century star James Lomas – as well as providing a remarkable insight into British rugby league before the first World War.
The King of Brilliance is a grand tome from the moment you set your eyes on the 272-page, nearly A4-sized hardback.
It's the kind of book that is fitting of a man who captained the Northern Union team on its first tour of Australia and New Zealand back in 1910. Tales from that tour are outlined in Tom Mather's Best In The Northern Union, another worthy historical title from London League Publications. [Read more…]
