The anti-ranching, misinformed discourse around Malheur
When my editor asked me to comment on the occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, I was apprehensive. Response to mainstream coverage of this incident has been so anti-ranching that I wondered if I could set aside my strong reaction to those sentiments in order to consider the core issues...
The current system dates to the Taylor Grazing Act of 1934, which split the open range into smaller allotments, each with specific regulations called operating instructions. While this and subsequent environmental policies have codified the land management process in a manner suitable to bureaucratic oversight, approaching the Western landscape like this takes the landscape out of context. Thus, the current system does not support effective management, land health or ranching. Limiting ranch management practices on federal lands to rigid regulations does not allow for the flexibility that healthy ecosystems require. Both commercial ranching in big, arid country and wild ecosystems function best on a large scale. As a result, the allotment system — meant to prevent overgrazinWhen my editor asked me to comment on the occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, I was apprehensive. Response to mainstream coverage of this incident has been so anti-ranching that I wondered if I could set aside my strong reaction to those sentiments in order to consider the core issuesg, rein in monopolistic ranching and establish the grazing rights of smaller ranchers — has been a huge source of contention. With smaller scale ranchers now protesting the original basis for jurisdiction and billionaires again putting together huge spreads, environmentalists are unhappy, people are out of work, and the land is suffering. No one is winning.
A landscape management framework that assesses the components of the big picture and how they work together (which a few ranchers and federal agency personnel have been able to implement in spite of bureaucratic obstacles) promotes flexibility among grazing allotments, allowing ranchers to better accommodate seasonal changes, forage growth, and wildlife. This way, when things like wolves, wildfires, and recreational interests collide with ranching, creative solutions can be a reality, not a dream.
Instead of vilifying grazing on federal lands, we should reimagine Western landscapes from a holistic viewpoint that includes insects, backpackers and buckaroos. Ranchers are required to respect federal title to the land, and if the public also recognized and respected the property rights these ranchers own, we might find ourselves at a good place to continue positive, healthy improvement on federal lands.

Global initialisation
hello everyone, im modelling a combustion problem ( i has allot of post here about that XD), and im working on the correct setup for my simulation, cuz i has allot of problem with convergence (energy equation specially).
and i dont know how to set up, correctly, the global inisialitation setup, i was traying with a few values on the cartesian velocity components but with out look. here is a image of my simulacion:
(ohh and i forget one velocity there, another velocity in the same direction of 32m/seg, but with a value of 86m/seg.)
so, with this value, how can i calculate or determine, the values of the correct velocity componentes for the global inisialitation?
thanks very much:o

VENUE: Lord Fanch Proudly Presents:
Cro-Mags, Everything Went Black, Resolute, Danny Greene, Grand Inquisitor, Cardiac Arrest
3108 Locust St.
St. Louis, MO, 63103
Doors 7:00 PM / Show 8:00 PM
This event is all ages
They first released a demo with songs that would eventually find themselves on their debut album The Age Of Quarrel (1986). The bass player Harley Flanagan and singer John Joseph were not the best of friends and eventually Joseph would part ways with the band leaving Harley to sing on the following Cro-Mags release. After The Age of Quarrel, the band released the record Best Wishes (1989). The record had a more heavy metal-influenced sound which alienated many of their fans. The band released another record Alpha Omega (1992), that saw the return of Joseph, and the departure of guitarist and songwriter Parris Mitchell Mayhew, a record that was only embraced by the most devoted of their fanbase, and followed by Near Death Experience (1993). After suffering from many lineup changes and frequent breakups, the group finally disbanded, seemingly for the last time, after this record. However, in 2000 they released a record that would almost make up for their past two releases. With Revenge the Cro-Mags came back to their early hardcore roots with songs that were comparable to their first release plus some songs with a more melodic/punk rock feel. After the release of Revenge the band broke up once again, and the internal hostility amongst band members (mainly between Mayhew and Flanagan) has never been resolved.
Everything Went Black plays a concise, sophisticated brand of fast and heavy aggressive music drawing influence from the likes of the Hope Conspiracy, Black Flag and Entombed, while still maintaining a sound that is very much its own. Since the band's formation in the spring of 2009, it has self released an EP, a 7" on Hands Up! Records, a split with Louisville, KY hardcore outfit Rattletooth on St. Louis based label I Hate Punk Rock Records, and a full length on Lost Shepherd/Prosthetic Records, home of artists such as Skeletonwitch, Trap Them, and The Acacia Strain.
Everything Went Black have shared the stage with Converge, Have Heart, Black Breath and more. In 2012 Everything Went Black hit the road to support their full length Cycles Of Light. Playing festivals such as SXSW, The Rumble, and supporting metallic hardcore legends Ringworm on the way to and from Chaos In Tejas. Everything Went Black are currently working on their second full length due out in 2013.

FABULOUS FOUR: Fabulous Hits (Vinyl-LP)
In 1957, four fellows from the South Philadelphia area formed a singing group they named The Four J's. They took their name based on the fact that each member's first name began with the letter J. They were Jr. Pirollo, Jimmy Testa, Joe "Judge" Milaro and another fellow named Joe whose last name is not remembered. He didn't remain with the group long enough to record, and left for personal reasons, being replaced by Jr.'s brother-in-law Bob Finizio.
After winning a local talent contest they were approached by Buddy Greco who became their manager and got the group their first recording contract in 1958 with U.A. Records. After a year and several releases Jr. and Bob became part of the "Four Naturals". The group was a studio group and after recording "How Strange" they didn't want to tour or perform live. Jr. and Bob replaced the two members who were unhappy and were on all the following releases including their hit "The Thought of You Darling".
In 1960 Bob Marcucci of Chancellor Records
approached Jr. and asked if his group would be willing to vocally
back up Fabian on both recordings and tours. He also promised them
several recordings on their own, a promise he kept proving to be one
of the few honorable giants in the field. Jr. and Bob once again
teamed up with Jimmy Testa and added Ernie Spano to the group
(replacing Joe Milaro). Ernie was an original member of the "Four
Dates", another Chancellor recording act. The group was now
backing the famous billed Fabulous Fabian, so naturally Bob Marcucci
came up with the groups new name "The Fabulous Four". For the
next 3-4 years the group recorded both with and without Fabian and
toured the entire United States (except Alaska) and most of the
Bob Finizio in his spare time was becoming one of the most
popular producers inthe field - and went on to write and produce
(many times with Jr.) many artists such as Mike Dupree», the
lntensions, the 4-Evers (not the Brooklyn group), Sonny \/ito, and
John Capri who were backed vocally by the Fabulous Four. Probably the
best known work by Finizio was the Guyden release "The Girl From
Across the Sea" by Ernie and the Halos (actually just the Fabulous
4 with Ernie singing Lead).
In late 1964-65 the group changed their name back to "The Four J's" and achieved their biggest success recording for Jamie Records "My Love Possessed" and "Here I Am Broken Hearted". Johnny Octobor was now a member of the group, Johnny was the original lead singer of the "Four Dates". Johnny took Jimmy's place and can be heard singing lead on a "B" side "Said That I Loved Her".
Jr. went on and recorded a few solo records for Cameo/Parkway under the name Joey Roberts Jr. He is still active in the music businesstoday. All other members of the above groups are now long separated from their musical interests. . ' I Ed Engel I Crystal Ball Records .

Letter(s) from Ekaterina Volkova to Leon (UK)
Letter 1
Hello my dear Leon!!!
At last I get to the Internet cafe and can write you. How are you these days?
Hope everything is fine. As for me I am rather good. It is really excited that I met you.
I do not know you very well but I really find our connection very interesting and delightful.
I do not know what exactly made me contact your ad. Perhaps it was some kind of intuition.
I am really glad that I wrote you and I hope this intuition will not lie to me.
I think you want to know more things about my life here. You know that I have been living here for all my life.
I spend all my childhood in Penza city. I do not like to remember that time.
I explain you why. I am the orphan and I do not have family. I even do not know my mother and father.
I was brought up in the boarding school for children orphans. You know that it is not happy to live without parents.
I wanted to find my parents when I brought up but then I forgot about this idea.
That's why I decided to work in the boarding school and give all my love and care to children who do not have love from parents.
Now I live with two my girlfriends. We rent the room together. Their names are Tatyana and Nadezhda.
We know each other from the childhood. We were together in the boarding school and they like my sisters now.
They work on the textile plant. We spend a lot of time together.
I think any person can have only few real friends.
I have such friends and I know that I always can hope on their help and support.
I also have some friends from my work but we do not spend a lot of time together.
I think it is because everybody has her or his own life. But sometimes we gather together and go for picnics or cinema.
Most of all I like to watch comedies and romantic films.
What else I can tell you about me?
I believe in God. I am Christian but I think that the main faith is in the heart and not just in going to the church. v There are a lot of people who go to the church just for view or fashion.
I am against such faith. You know that I like romantic things. I like flowers.
I like all flowers but most of all I like roses. It is the flowers of love. My favorite color is blue.
I had one dream in childhood. I wanted to sea Blue Ocean. I have never seen ocean.
Hope I will be able to see it one day. Now I have more serious dreams.
You know that I want to have my own family, my own micro world.
I live with my girlfriends now but I want to have close person who will understand me in everything.
I want to share all moments of the life with him. I want to have beloved man who will love me and will care about me.
I dream about having a family and to have close friends, to gather together and to spend vacations, to have picnics, to go out together.
It is dreams again. I hope that they will come true one day. I think I should let you go now.
I have written you a lot of information about me in my letters.
I spend a lot of time writing letters because I type very slowly. Hope my typing skills will be better in some time.
If you want to know anything you can always ask me about it, ok.
Maybe it is strange but I thought about you. You know that I am very interested in you and our connection.
Hope everything will be fine with it.
Well, I need to close here.
I need to go but I will think about you. I already think about you a lot.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Your friend Ekaterina.
Letter 2
Hello dearest Leon!!!
I am very happy to read your words. You know that I wait for your letters with so big impatience.
My life here is so usual. I wake up and go to work.
I like my work and children are the only good I have here and I give them all my energy.
I work since 8:00 till 17:00 five days per week but sometimes I work more hours.
Then I go to sport hall to work out and home and just have a rest till next morning.
And so is every day. Only on weekends I have some free time to relax.
Sometimes I feel that I am alone and I want to have real close for me person.
I do not know what I would do without Tatyana and Nadezhda. It is my girlfriends I have written you about them.
Also my cat helps me to forget about loneliness. I do not remember if I wrote to you that we have a cat.
Her name is Murka. She is very kind and clever. But now I have met you and you like a new breathe in my life.
I begin to miss you when I cannot read you letters.
I usually go to the cafe during my lunch break or after work
By the way I have told my girlfriends about our correspondence.
They are a little skeptical about all of this.
They told me that there are so many lies in the Internet and you cannot believe anybody but I hope we will change their mind, will we? Oh, I have remembered that I need to cook supper. My girlfriends will come home rather late today and I need to feed them.
I do not remember if I have written to you that I like cooking.
My friends like my cooking. I like to cook something delicious and then invite my friends to taste.
I think you would like my cooking too. Maybe you will be able to taste it one day.
Everything can happen in this world. Am I right? I am really glad that we have met each other.
And I am not afraid of anything. Time will show to us everything we want to know I think. Am I right?
I have the feelings that we will have a lot of wonderful moments in the future.
Sorry dear, I need to go now. I need to get to home as quickly as possible to cook the supper.
I will try to write you more next time, ok.
As always I will wait for your letters with very big impatience and will think about you.
Your letters are becoming very important for me. Have a good day.
Your friend Ekaterina.

Raleigh, North Carolina (PressExposure) April 13, 2008 -- The Kustom Koozies website is known for offering a fully customizable line of Koozie products. The company, based out of Raleigh, North Carolina, has fully dedicated itself to keeping beverages cool while at the same time promoting any special event, cause or statement that can be dreamt up. The company recently decided to poke a little bit of fun at one of the candidates by comparing them with one of their customized Koozies, in a rather biased manner.
The concept behind the poke was simply to laugh a little during a tense peak political season. By comparing political candidate Hillary Clinton to one of their customized Koozies, they've done just that. Striving not to take sides or to aim the fun at any one party or another, the Kustom Koozie website also features an article listing reasons for why a Koozie product might be more intelligent than George Bush.
According to Bob Liddle, CEO of Kustom Koozies, "We ship out hundreds of thousands of Koozies for all kinds of events and parties. We thought that it would be fun to take a poke at our political parties. No harm was intended and we hope that everyone takes it for what it is â a bit of levity in a stressful time."
Can-hugging Koozies have been popular as promotional items for many years. Their low price makes them easy to come by, and affordable to give out. âAny special occasion or event can be the right time for a customized Koozie product, regardless of whether it is a high-class wedding reception or a large scale corporate event.â according to Liddle.
Kustom Koozies was founded nine years ago, specializing in personalized can hugging products for weddings, family reunions, special events, product launches and any other purpose that could possibly require a message or logo. Kustom Koozies are available in a low minimum offer of 12 Koozies, making the product extremely affordable for any event.

Mr Brains Pork Faggots
17 reviews from the community
Review of "Mr Brains Pork Faggots"
Mr Brains are probably the longest established Faggot maker in the UK (if not the only ones)! So now that I am a dedicated eater of Meat faggots I feel I am now able to offer my opinion on this food item that you will probably either love or hate. Mr Brain's faggots are made by Hibernia Brands Ltd, who has recently bought out the Sara Lee empire (so I'm led top understand).~~~ What are faggots? ~~~
Pork Faggots are a meatball, which is made up basically from Pork liver and onion. Mr Brain's faggots add a few more things such as rusks, wheat flour etc, and soak them in a rich west country sauce, before freezing them for your convenience.~~~ How do you cook them? ~~~
For best results you should cook from frozen, at the following temperatures and times:
230*c/ 450*f/Gas Mark 8 for 30 to 40 minutes: Alternatively, you can cook them in a microwave for around a total of about 13 minutes stirring half way. Though cooking by this method requires the placement of the faggots from their container to a microwave-able dish.
As they are served with gravy, we enjoy them with mashed potatoes and peas (just like it shows on the pack). However people tastes vary, so eat them with whatever you want – chips (I've just got into chips with gravy!), jackets whatever turns you on – as to speak.~~~ Are they fattening? ~~~
A highly important question if you are watching your weight, or need to eat healthily for health reasons. The faggots are high in fat (12.5g cooked), but for your information here are a few values: Calories –242: Carbohydrates 22.5g (sugars 4.3g): Saturated fat 5.9g: sodium 0.9g. All values are for the cooked version of the product and per 100g.~~~ So what do they taste like? ~~~
These Pork faggots are rather Moorish, and although not addictive are excellent for a difference. The easiest way I can sum them up is that they taste a wee bit like Haggis. They are simply meatballs made with pigs liver and onion, and can be made at home (see recipe below). I am the sort of person who is typically British in their eating, with the occasional Chinese pancake roll or chow mein…and these pork faggots suffice the requirements of my somewhat picky diet.
~~~ Overall ~~~
Mr Brains Pork Faggots are to be enjoyed, maybe not on a regular basis but nonetheless they are worthy of some praise. I believe faggots originate from Wales (please correct me if I am wrong), and served with mashed potato, peas and the rich West Country sauce it comes with and what more could you want? In favour of the faggots are – taste, price, ease of cooking (just loosen the lid and bung in oven). Against- some of the faggots stick to the dish, not big enough pack for more than one person, the lids can be a little difficult to remove when hot.~~~ Other information: ~~~
Mr Brains Pork faggots come in packs of four (I am not sure whether other sizes are available-but I have noit seen them if they are) and cost £1.39 per pack. At time of writing (13/6/02) Iceland have faggots on offer –buy two packs for £2.00. They are made by Hibernia Brands ltd of Bristol. You can store in a freezer for up to 1 month in a two star freezer or follow the best by date for higher models. Alternatively you can store them for up to twelve hours in a fridge. The pack does warn that you should handle the container and lid carefully when cooked as they do get hot, and I can vouch for that.Ratings:
Packaging – 7/10
Product quality – 9/10
Ease of cooking – 9/10
Taste – 9/10
Overall – 9/10
The recipe as promised:
1lb pig's liver2 large onions (or according to taste)
4oz fresh breadcrumbs3oz suet
2tsp chopped sage2tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Mince the liver and onions finely and place in mixing bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix to form dough.
Shape into small balls and place on greased baking tray. Cook for about 30-40 minutes at about 200 C/400 F/ Gas mark 7 (approx) (ensure product is piping hot throughout). Make gravy (if chosen) and serve as desired

Pheonixx published 21/11/2002I love faggots. I like to chop them up when they are cooked and add tinned veg, stick them in an oven proof dish and spread mash on top. A wicked alternative to shepherds pie.
Little_Raven published 12/11/2002oooh yes I've not had these for years...must rush out and get some immediately ;o)

When car dealers evaluate your trade, they ask for the keys and registration. They need the keys to drive the car. They need the registration to make sure it's current, and to confirm ownership information, the vehicle description, the vehicle identification number (VIN), and so on.
In yesterday's article, I introduced my friend Jan. When she tried to leave a car dealership after saying no to the deal they presented, the salesperson and his manager literally refused to return her keys and registration in a failed bid to make the sale. In time, Jan was able to get her keys and vehicle registration back. As she drove away from the dealership she was angry, frustrated, and perplexed at how a business could treat her in such a callous and disrespectful manner.
Bad Behavior
When we talked later that day, I explained to Jan that all car dealers make every effort to make the sale at the time the customer is in the showroom. Past experience tells them that if a customer leaves without buying, the dealership probably lost the deal. Thus, dealers will pull out all stops to try and make the sale now.
For most dealers, trying to make the sale immediately does not mean engaging in unethical behavior, such as not returning their keys and registration. Instead, most will drop the price, or entice you with extras that you normally wouldn't get with the deal, such as free service or accessories. However, some dealers turn to the dark side to make a deal at any cost.
"Old school" dealers train their sale staff to do whatever it takes to make a sale. This can include being pushy, rude, offensive, callous, disrespectful, and act with inappropriate bad behavior that is unacceptable under any circumstances. It's a big reason why dealers have a bad reputation.
What to Do
What should you do if you're in dealer's showroom and you just gave the salesperson your keys and registration to evaluate your trade? When I was Internet Manager for a major dealer, the savvy customers always asked for their property back as soon as I returned with the trade valuation. They literally stopped the sales process until their keys and registration were returned.
What should you do if your salesperson tells you that the manager has your keys, but he just stepped out for a few minutes? At this point you need to take control of the situation: simply inform the salesperson that you'll take your business elsewhere unless your property is returned immediately. Then, follow through on your threat. After all, do you really want to do business with someone who treats you in this manner?
Jan's Story
What happened to Jan? Did she go back and buy from the dealer who mistreated her? We'll have the final chapter of Jan's story, tomorrow.

Antelope Valley College (English -Journalism)
Los Angeles Valley College - A.A. Degree (Other)
I am an English/Journalism major at Antelope Valley College (AVC) preparing for a second career in teaching at the high school level. I am taking classes to transfer to California State University at Bakersfield (CSUB) as a junior in the very near future. I received my first Associate in Arts degree in Business/Secretarial Science from Los Angeles Valley College (LAVC) many years ago, which prepared me to work in the legal industry for over 25 years as a legal assistant and paralegal. While on the job, I trained many employees in preparing various correspondence and pleadings for court filings. I also recently taught a Legal Assistant/Paralegal course at a local school for profit.
As a 4.0 GPA student in my field of study, I have assisted many fellow students in composing and writing grammatically correct and properly punctuated sentences, selecting appropriate sentence structures, and producing well-developed and coherently organized paragraphs. I have written and published many short stories, columns, and am a published author. I believe I can bring life to the subject of English in students, help students to comprehend and think outside the box, and create an enthusiasm in students to become creative writers through learning the necessary tools. I enjoy helping students blossom.
I have completed the following courses (including oral and PowerPoint presentations) with passing grades of A's and only a couple of B's: English 102 (Critical Thinking & Literature); English 103 (Critical Thinking & Research); English 221 (American Literature 1600-1800); English 222 (American Literature 1865-Present); English 225 (English Literature 800-1750); English 230 (Close Reading & Critical Theories); English 242 (Studies in Fiction); English 257 (Native American Literature); English 256 (Hispanic and Latin American Literature); English 259 (Gender, Image & Rhetoric); Journalism 121 (Beginning Journalism); and Journalism 123 (Newspaper and Magazine Production). I have prepared various reports with tables and charts. I have prepared correspondence to people and businesses from myself and on behalf of others for a variety of purposes. I have written a variety of articles and weekly columns (Ask Auntie Lopa, The Professor's Corner, and "Say What" for AVC). I was Assistant Editor in Chief for The Navigator Newspaper and The Oasis Magazine at AVC. In 2012, I wrote and published a book to help women of all ages ("Girl Talk – The Consequences of Sexual Promiscuity"), which can be found through Google.com, Amazon.com and Outskirts Press Publishing. I also participated in and conducted Bible Studies where I have prepared discussion notes for adults and prepared student activity plans.
If you need punctuation, grammatical and comprehension assistance in writing, contact me. If you want to be able to think outside the box with your ideas and put it on paper, contact me. If you want to communicate your ideas concisely through writing and receive the reward of receiving better grades, contact me.

I charge $30/hour for 1 to 2 students (together). I will still be paid the hourly rate If the student is late to the tutoring appointment without providing the 3-hour cancellation notice.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I have taught the Word of God, the Bible (aka Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth), for many years to many people from teenagers to adults. One particular subject I taught at New Beginning Christian Center was "Psalm 91 - Your Protection," which discussed fiery trials that all people go through in life, and how God protects us in those trials, as stated in 2 Corinthians 4:16-18. This class also reiterated that God is omnipresent (present 24/7); He knows all about us, our weaknesses, and our needs; He is omnipotent (all powerful); and He will bring comfort, peace, and rest to us, as stated in Isaiah 51:12, which states: "I, even I, am He who comforts you. Who are you that you should be afraid? Of a man who will die, and of the son of a man who will be made like grass?"

General Question
What is the cause of reversals in Earth's magnetic field?
Asked by AstroChuck (37278) November 27th, 2009
Every so often (the range is between tens of thousands and several millions of years) the polarity of the Earth's magnetic field switches. What causes this change? Why is there such an extreme variance in the years between these shifts? Has any pattern been determined in the timing between each event?

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by Kazp3r, Sep 7, 2010.
Link up with bbm and iphone users check it out
Blue Planet Apps - CrossTalk v1.0
Smells to me like its another replacement program. I highly doubt that you can sit on "CrossTalk" and the blackberry user can sit on BBM and talk to each other. Just another program that you have to have downloaded on both sides to use.
hope not, its still in development we'll see what happens when they drop the beta
Blackberry has locked down BBM pretty well. The only way I think they would ever have an attempt at doing this is if they knew how/where BBM's get transmitted from. If they somehow were able to intercept the bbm on the network, and reroute it to another location, they could create a web based messaging service to do it. I dont think they have those details...I dont think anyone does, besides the guy who created the source and a few select bb employees I bet.
Its the only thing REALLY keeping them a float above other smartphone competition.
not sure when it will be released, as stated by the developer. because they are focusing on biolock
It is 100% possible, i am doing a form of this right now for a client.
The project entails allowing the admin (my client) to sit on his computer and type a message into a website textbox, which is then sent to a server, and in turn sent to a list of clients who have installed his blackberry app that we built. The devices are located by PIN number (which is also what bbm uses)
So i know for a fact its possible to go from server to blackberry PIN number, what i dont know is if it can go from bb PIN to the website, and in turn parsed to a new messenger client.
I have to assume its 100% possible based on what i know has been done.

A 45-year-old woman was attacked Thursday morning while walking through a North Athens apartment complex, Athens-Clarke police said.
The woman told police she was approached just before 8 a.m. by a man, whom she recognized, but didn't know by name, and was punched and knocked to the ground, reports said.
The man reportedly dragged the woman across the parking lot and attempted to rape her before she was able to break free and run to a relative's apartment, where she called police, reports said.

I had blogged about company networking previously and it should be an eye opener for entrepreneurs for realizing the need for a network within their company. Business computer networking is a very common thing to see today, with most companies, form the smallest to the largest, have an active computer network in their offices. These networks are mostly created in order to share a single internet connection and save money, but in some cases these networks can have other purposes as well such as physical resource sharing.
Business purpose network can include several computers and a lot of networking hardware. This is why you will probably need the help of a professional to purchase the needed network and to properly connect everything in order to have a working network. You can also consider seeking the services of a network consultant for the purpose of maintaining the network.
If you don't have a business network yet I will have to give you some reasons to start benefiting right now:
* Printer sharing – your employees will no longer need to wait in line in order to use the only computer that is connected to a printer. Imagine the amount of time you save. Every minute your employee saves results in higher utilization for your business, also you can combine between the best photo printers 2017 with your computer networking and if your photo printer have wireless features, you and anyone in your network can print wirelessly from your mobile devices, laptop, notebook, etc (no cable needed at all)
* File sharing – reports and other important information will no longer need to be printed out and sent physically to your office desks. Once a person finishes the report, the same can be emailed to the intended recipients or put on a common shared folder so that anyone can access them
* Remote access – one of your workers is out of town and he forgot to bring some files with him for his business meeting. If you have a network established he will simply connect to his computer from anywhere in the world and get the files he needs without any more time being wasted. This is especially useful in cases of remote monitoring or using ACE or ACS or other servers
* Seamless communication – everyone knows what everyone else is doing, so your employees can organize themselves easier and collaborate for making work easier and faster
* Data protection – because you are using a network you are able to create duplicates of files on a server and ensure that if something happens to the original files (hard drive failure or they are deleted by accident) you have the copies to work with.
Now, this is probably a list of some of the things that you see that lacks in your business. By investing in the benefits of the business computer networking, you will be able to see a growth in productivity and this means a successful business. Business computer networking is the technology of the present that allows your company to grow faster and become what you have envisioned when you started it

It costs an insane amount of money to live in beautiful San Diego, but you get good food, perfect weather, and the beach. You just have to pay through the nose for it. The access to fresh produce and fish is unreal. I found some delightfully fresh Sea Bass at my local Farmer's Market and decided to cook it up based on a dish I had seen on Bravo's Top Chef. I love Top Chef because there isn't usually the drama associated with, say, popular reality cooking shows on network TV. They try to keep it about the food. Every once in a while on the show you end up with a bully chef (or chefs) and an easy target. Chef Beverly Kim was an easy target and my heart ached for her. If you didn't watch that season then you have no idea what I'm talking about. You just need to know that she made great food on the show. For a Quickfire Challenge she made a really delicious looking Sea Bass so I looked up the recipe on Bravotv.com (those recipes can be vague and very hard to follow) and adapted it for the home chef. The result is a 5 star fish dish that is simple to make for the home chef. The fish is delicate and sweet served over a bed of spicy avocado, and topped off with some delicious sauteed mushrooms. It is light and flavorful and the combination of flavors sings in your mouth.
2 filets Sea Bass
1 avocado, diced small
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 red radish, diced small
2 limes, juiced
2 leaves basil, chopped
4 leaves cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 onion, minced
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
2 tsp soy sauce
1/4 cup butter
1 tsp ginger, minced
Salt and Pepper
1. Make the avocado "salsa" by combining the diced avocado, minced jalapeno, minced garlic, diced radish, the juice of 1 of the limes, and the basil and cilantro in a small bowl. Stir together and set aside.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Add in the minced onion and mushrooms and saute for about 3 minutes. Add in the juice of the other lime, soy sauce, and minced ginger. Saute for another 1-2 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside (keeping warm).
3. Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Cook the sea bass by searing it skin side down first. It should take about 4 minutes per side to cook through (actual cooking time will depend on the thickness of your filet). The fish is done when it can flake easily with a fork.
4. Serve the fish on a bed of the avocado salsa and top with the mushroom mixture and juices.

The most 'simples' selfie ever? Meerkat climbs onto photographer's shoulder for a picture
THIS photographer has taken the most 'simples' selfie ever - after a meerkat climbed onto his shoulder to pose for a snap.
Stunned animal lover Anthony Kershaw was preparing a quick picture to test his camera when the cheeky creature clambered up his back.
And, as he pressed the shutter button, the meerkat jumped onto his shoulder to use him as a vantage point.
The 21-year-old, of Dorking, Surrey, was taking snaps of the cute animals at Tilgate Nature Centre, in Crawley, West Sussex.
He revealed his friends have now joked that the attention-seeking meerkat even looks like him, because of his fuzzy beard.
He said: I had just gone into the enclosure and was setting up my gear.
"I was planning on using a remote control camera so I wouldn't disturb them, but I needed to take a picture up close so I knew everything was in focus.
I don't normally take selfies, but I thought it would have been easier than trying to get one of the meerkats to pose up
"I don't normally take selfies, but I thought it would have been easier than trying to get one of the meerkats to pose up.
"But as soon as I pointed my camera at my face, one of them climbed up my leg and t-shirt and just stood on my shoulder, proud as punch.
"It was like he was using me as a vantage point to get a better look at what was going on.
"People say we could be brothers, but I don't see the resemblance."
Mr Kershaw later set up his camera inside the enclosure, which is home to seven adult and two baby meerkats, and captured a string of cute pictures of the loveable critters - made famous by the hilarious Compare the Meerkat adverts.
Tilgate Nature Centre manager Simon Woodard said: "We have recently moved our meerkats into a new enclosure, which they love.
"Since we're having quite a hot summer, we've been feeding them iced lollies, filled with fruits, nuts and mealworm, which keeps them happily amused for hours."

I keep staring at that "Block RainbowDoubleDash" button, and I can't help but wonder what would happen if I clicked it...
Nice job breaking the multiverse, Twilight.
Huh... well that just happened.
So, this is the incident that Shining was telling Trixie about in "At the Grand Galloping Gala"?
Okay, she had better get punishment for this.
There are a couple of places where a light editing pass might be needed, especially near the start, but overall this is looking good.
Why did this have to get posted right before I went to sleep!? You're updating like crazy these day's, not that I'm complaining! :D
oh well not sleeping now.
I liked the history lesson on Poniszawa and it's conversion into a historical tourist trap, it suits the family well, that they'd spend their holiday's in such scholarly places.
Interesting idea giving Twi a pocket dimension, I have mixed feeling about it, but that's likely to do with personal head canon on Twilight's powers, and it was well executed regardless glad to know Twi hasn't been suffering to bad on the money front at least.
Twilight comes across as very sympathetic & relatable here, which was the point.
Nice to see that given enough time Twi was able to realize to seem extent that she'd done wrong, even if she can't admit Trixie is the element of magic, though she also seems conflicted on that front as well.
Very well done scene with the bubble shield. Twi and Shining scene was very heartbreaking.
Epic ending there, both with the blackness claiming Twilight and the "impossible place"
Great chapter and an excellent set up for the cross universal shenanigans, I can't wait for more!
Dammit, Shiny
Personally, I'm hoping she gets perspective more than punishment.
I don't think L!Twilight's a bad pony, she's just been making atrociously bad decisions, and has been too afraid to own up to them.
Also, poor Shiny. He just wants his family back.
Twilight, the unicorn voted Most Likely to Sprout Wings three years running. Seriously, if she ever decided to drop the moon onto some spot in Equestria, I wouldn't want to be standing there...
A Twilight Sparkle backed into a corner is a dangerous Twilight Sparkle...
Pretty heart-wrenching to see the brother and sister meet up after all this time and still not get any closure. The Crisis will be more than just a bunch of worlds colliding.
Let's see how this Final Countdown goes from here.
1964308 Hey, there are times I wish Mane-verse Twilight gets her head verbally ripped off. *Shrugs* Here or M!Six, she needs a good talking-to. At least.
Even more fun: the upcoming scene, whether here or in Crisis itself, where L!Twilight and M!Twilight rip each other's metaphorical heads off about the flaws that they can see "in the mirror."
oh boy. This won't end well.........
1964308 Indeed, her go-to response to social anxiety appears to be a magical excursions on a sliding scale from calamitous to apocalyptic.
What a messed up kid...
Ooooo, me likey.
Am I the only one who thought it was hilarious when Haymaker got punched?
Great job cracking the universe, Twilight.
I am so going to read this... even if it does take a tagline from one of the most overhyped pieces of dreck I've ever watched in my entire life.
I mean, Transformers 3 sucked, but it's not like anyone expected it to be good.
Lovely. Say, is Crisis on Two Equestrias a reference to a certain straight-to-dvd animated movie?
even if it does take a tagline from one of the most overhyped pieces of dreck I've ever watched in my entire life.
What are you talking about? Lawrence of Arabia is a great movie!
It's a reference to Crisis on Infinite Earths, a mega-crossover that DC comics did in the 80s.
Uh, oh. This should be fun...
I would say it's a reference to the comic book industry, myself.
Excellent work as always, RDD.
*unfolds a chair and sits*
Dis gonna be gud.
This chapter reminded me of an old sci-fi story about an institute researching alternate realities. They turned test subjects into dimensional travelers by tying them to a machine that unstuck them and making them extremely uncomfortably, leaving away as the only available escape direction. Yeah, I know it's weird...
So i'm not the only who thought it was a reference to DC comics instead of that movie of which we do not speak?
It's a reference to Crisis on Infinite Earths, a mega-crossover that DC comics did in the 80s.
Rut Roh, Shaggy, wasn't that kind of a blood bath? I mean they killed (hippish) Super Girl.
Then tried to bring her back.
When they tried to bring back Batwoman, they brought her back gay...does this mean Trixie finally gets some?
I can't wait till it's done, so I can read this then Crisis
......Leave it to Twilight to crack a hole in the universe, talk about the ultimate escape.
Always enjoy the world building in these, it always feels like you put the extra effort into it.
It's starting!
Indeed, her go-to response to social anxiety appears to be a magical excursions on a sliding scale from calamitous to apocalyptic.
I think that describes both Twilights
Oh, dear. She was almost ready to admit that just maybe, she might have been wrong and WHAM, she broke reality. This is far worse than enchanting a doll.
That being said, her meeting M!Twilight will be far more traumatic than L!Trixie meeting M!Trixie. I mean, the other Lunaverse versions of the bearers would to one extent or another give the Mane Six pause but to see what she could have been in a world that feared the Sun would probably be the thing that finally gets the screw-ball to see reason.
By the way, has Twilight crossed an Alternate or a Parallel?
Because that's kind of important.
Alternates are fine. They're on the same causal-planar field, so travel is easy and safe, provided you're in the right areas of the Omniverse. It really varies from place to place, but as long as the barriers around your Alternate aren't too rigid, you can slip in and out with relative ease.
Parallels, not so much.
Bridging a Parallel basically means you're creating a connection between two places that are really not ever supposed to interact with one another. It's risky business, and it only leads to branching Parallels which get messy fast.
Ironically, Alternates run on the exact same causio-temporal track to each other, and Parallels are constantly branching off into more Parallels. Makes no sense, but that's the Omniverse for you.
Don't even get me fucking started on nested multi verse clusters. Especially chain clusters.
Motherfucking chain clusters. You take out one Alternate, and every Alternate afterwards has a total event collapse. Easily the worst kind of cluster to find yourself living in.
Please don't turn Lunaverse!Twilight into Superboy Prime... of all of the possibilities in the multiverse, that would be the Worst. Possible. Thing.
...um...I'll give you the same explanation I gave vazak:
The way I'm going to approach dimensional travel is kind of like a Stargate. If you learn a spell that will teleport you to Universe B, then you can now travel to Universe B. Now that you are on Universe B, if you cast that spell again to try and get to Universe A...nothing happens, you stay on Universe B. You need an entirely different spell to get from Universe B back to Universe A. So dimensional travel is therefore necessarily limited, since you have to learn completely new spells each time you want to go to a different universe (and indeed I may even make it so that you need specific spells even to go from one universe to the next to the next, so you need one spell to get from A to B, another to get from B to A, a third to get from A to C, a fourth to get from C to A, a fifth to get from C to B, and a sixth to get from B to C).
The second thing I'm going to do is that universes kind of move and shift around. Travel is only possible when they're close enough, which only happens every thousand years, and the window for travel is only about three months wide.
And the third thing is that travelling requires power, a lot of it. Generally speaking, only an alicorn can gather together enough raw magical energy, and it's exhausting even for them.
An alicorn, or an exceptionally gifted unicorn who then blacks out for three days from the effort.
An exceptionally gifted unicorn who then blacks out for three days from the effort, or a unicorn that happens to be struck by lighting the very instant they try to teleport.
Under no circumstance will I be turning anyone into Superboy Prime.
Ah, so they're Alternates in a large, loosely packed cluster. Likely either ellipse or orbital, by your description.
If the drifts happen in a regular, constant pattern, it's likely orbital. If they were irregular and random, then it would be more of an ellipse. A loose cloud as opposed to a tight series of orbits around one another, you see.
Good thing too, because Spiral and Chain clusters are the ones that have Prime Alternates, and those suuuck because as I've mentioned, if you were to incite an event in, say, the 10th alternate, every alternate from 11 onwards would feel it in some way. The effects get more pronounced as you approach the Prime alternate, leading to the whole thing where if so much as the planet Earth were to be destroyed, every Earth (and Earth analogue!) In that cluster just ceases to be.
And that is why you need to take good care of your Primes. Be active in your cluster, and all that.
Likely either ellipse or orbital, by your description.
A mix of both regular and orbital. Some universes move in regular patterns...some don't. Like the
thirteen twelve moons of Eberron.
Oh my god, I know, right?
And then you have those times when clusters move around each other, and everything just goes out the door when you get to that point, because, hey, that alternate wasn't here yesterday! Looks like our alternates just got switched around, and we'll likely not see that other alternate for fucking eons
Motherfucker. That just ruins my entire weekend when that happens.
...your entire weekend is ruined because Xoriat, the Realm of Madness, the fell plane of the Daelkyr whom the demons themselves feared and whom the Dhakaani Empire gave their lives to ensure that it could never again enter Eberron's orbit?
See, most people see that Xoriat's exile is one of the few times when the motiff of
thirteen twelve things was considered a good thing for Eberron.
An exceptionally gifted unicorn who then blacks out for three days from the effort, or a unicorn that happens to be struck by lighting the very instant they try to teleport.
Magic lightning is still a bit shaky to me, if it's used.
I get the sudden impression the two Twilight will bee swapping places?
Well, yeah, when you want to get rid of the asshole Alternates, it's great.
But man, when you have good relations with a world populated by sentient hats, and all of a sudden their alternate gets jacked by the causio-gravitational pull of some ellipse cluster that just happened to skim your cluster?
I mean, yeah, it's an accident, but that shit can tear families apart if they're on different alternates at the time. Loving, mixed-species hat-human families.
Wait struck by lightning to go through dimensions? Why do I get the feeling that this may some how end with Trixie gaining a Dangerous Forbidden Technique overclocking mode (possibly of the Cast From Hit Points type) that ends up looking something like this when engaged:
That looks badass! and super awesome! In equally epic measures!
kinda makes me think of "storm avatar"?
I actually quite like the idea of a cool but very risky magical spell like that plus ticked of Trixie getting her effects is cool.
Maybe I'm still hyped up on getting my chapter out, but was that thing about multiverses supposed to make any sense? I'm up to Sliders level competence when it comes to multiverse theory, where the universes are either evil alternates, a society wide change that changes everything, or a action movie plot, so I'm not quite up to snuff on the metaphysics of it all.
Well, Part 2 certainly came up fast, which is great because waiting was torturous. Can't wait to see what comes in the actual Crisis!
Well, L!Twinks, you've screwed up yet again. Hopefully this time it'll be less 'rampaging bears' and more 'friendship and adventures'.
Aw, who am I kidding? Putting two Twilight Sparkles together is like mixing ammonia and bleach.
A good idea.
My lawyer has informed me that I'm no longer allowed to tell people to mix ammonia and bleach. It's dangerous. Don't do it.
Do it.
oh man........
I do like the fact that Twilight knew that she probably shouldn't meddle in this other worlds affairs. Too bad it looks like she'll be forced to. And I do like how you talk of the differenced between governments(though admittedly the mention of Ministries made me think of Fallout Equestria....well, that and Fina Fantasy XI)
Bets are being placed on Twi's being swapped and that It's was a freak convergence of both spells that caused this.
Though I'm not betting on that, because that's obvious.
Hmm........Without the Great Game to attract M!Trixie's attention, there's no real mystery why she became a showmare here. Also, leave it to a Twilight to realize what's wrong when there's nothing she can do about it yet.
Also, thank you for explaining WHY nopony in the Celestiaverse knows who the Mane Six are. The same impulse that caused Celestia to let the Nightmare Moon incident get swept under the rug made her protect her little ponies for receiving due credit for their efforts.

What's the biggest health fear facing Americans today? According to a survey done by the American Foundation for the Blind, most Americans fear loss of vision even above the fear of getting cancer, heart disease, diabetes, HIV or any other life-threatening health problem. The national poll revealed that age-related blindness or low vision is the topmost fear because it incapacitates people from living a normal life and increases dependency levels.
Apparently, this fear is real and is the major factor driving the growth of the vision health supplement industry. Over the years, the sale of vision health supplements has grown dramatically, largely supported by America's teeming population of senior citizens.
A report in the November 2009 issue of U.S. Eye Health Ingredients, interest in vision health nutritional supplements is backed by America's rapidly rising aging population. Americans over 65 are particularly affected by common eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts and diabetic retinopathy Statistics from the Administration of Aging show that by the year 2030, 20 percent of the American population, will be over 62. Next year the oldest baby boomers will turn 65. This is indeed, a brimming consumer market for vision health supplement manufacturers.
Nutritional Supplements – an Increasingly Popular Consumer Option
The importance of supplements has been gaining unprecedented interest since 1994 when the Dietary Supplement Health & Education Act (DHEA) allowed nutritional supplement labels to describe specific health benefits to ingredients in nutritional products. Since then, the industry has been providing targeted nutrients which address key health conditions meeting the needs of a wide body of consumers looking for natural solutions.
The recent regulations to the dietary supplement industry have served to re-enforce high quality standards and thus boost the respectable image of nutritional supplements. Consumer usage of nutritional supplements is expected to rise as research widens and validates the efficacy of certain nutrients and herbs for specific health conditions.
Nutrients and Herbs Addressing Vision Health
Various herbs, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients have been intensively researched for their role in supporting vision health, especially age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataract, night blindness and low vision. Herbs and nutrients have also been identified to address issues such as dry eyes and eye fatigue. Eye fatigue is often caused by modern living which involves long hours in front of visual display terminals.
According to the American Optometric Association (AOA), vital nutrients essential for supporting vision health are lutein, zeaxanthin, essential fatty acids, zinc, Vitamin C and Vitamin E. Other important nutrients and herbs include Vitamin A, Vitamin B2, selenium, copper, N-Acetyl Cysteine, astaxanthin bilberry extract, eyebright and lycopene.
According to Frost & Sullivan, opportunities in the American market are open for eye health nutrients such as zeaxanthin, bilberry extracts, lutein, beta-carotene and astaxanthin. Analysts predict the nutrient, lutein, to grow at a volume of 6 per cent. Zeaxanthin is predicted to have a 9 percent growth rate.
Vision health supplements can be manufactured in various delivery forms such as tablets, capsules, softgels, liquids, powders and also include homeopathic eye drops.
Vision Health Supplements – Growing Market
According to Functional Ingredients, the US eye health ingredients market was worth $138 million n 2008, and is predicted to grow annually at the rate of 5 percent. The CAGR from 2008 to 2015 is forecast at 5.3 percent.
The National Eye Institute estimates that there are 3.3 million Americans who are 40 years or older suffering from low vision or blindness. These numbers are expected to increase to 5.5 million in 2020 as more baby boomers reach the ranks of senior citizenship.
Nutritional supplements are fasting gaining consumer trust. Combined with the expanding population of aging baby boomers the nutritional vision health market is certainly at the threshold of burgeoning expansion and growth.

Supercut, Feat. Big Boi, Safaree, Bizzy Bone & More
With no knowledge of who the lyrics belong to, a variety of artists give their unfiltered opinion on other rappers' bars.
The social media side show that is Azealia Banks is back to stirring the pot. This time, the rapper has come forward to blame President Barack Obama for the violence that has occurred in Baton Rouge since the police killing of Alton Sterling.
Banks tore into the president regarding his comments on the recent police killings, blaming him for not doing enough to fight for the well being of Black Americans. While she is not the first person to voice this sentiment, her comments are among the most scathing we've heard from a public persona — though they do seem to be in line with her modus operandi.
Banks' all-caps rant started with, "NO OBAMA. YOURE WRONG. JUST BECAUSE YOURE AFRAID OF SEEMING TO IN LINE OR IN SUPPORT OF BLACK INTERESTS DOESNT MEAN YOU GET TO KEEP SPITTING IN OUR F***ING FACES LIKE THIS." The femcee continues to say that while he has looked out for the interest of other social and ethnic minorities during his term as president, he has sacrificed the well-being of the Black community.
Her comments are incredibly scathing, but considering Banks' history of lashing out at people for a seemingly countless number of reasons, this latest social media eruption will just be one to add to a long list of similar incidents.

Discussion in 'Online Adventures' started by dotcom, Jan 22, 2007.
Anybody going to be playing on launch?
I was thinking about checking it out. Seems like it could have potential even though a lot of people are beginning to flame it after SoE took over...
game fucking rocks
I heard from a friend of mine who's in beta that they totally revamped the exp system so that it takes exponentially longer to level up. And they had some other horrible changes.
He won't be playing beyond beta, and has told all of his friends not to waste their time.
I dont see a problem with taking longer to level up. Then people wont be at the cap a week after release like some other mmo's.. I will probably still check it out might as well.
First day I got to 11 without much effort.
So what is everyone's impression of this game?
I'm enjoying it. On the Flamehammer server if anybody is playing.
I only played it up to level 10 in beta 5 and I couldn't stand the low frame rate with moderate graphics settings. I have 2.25GB ram, 256mb ATI X800 card and an intel 3.0 processor. I'm sticking to wow and the expansion. My first impression of the game makes me think of EQ/EQ2 and WoW blended all together.
The low frame rate could have just been the beta servers, but meh I don't really feel like starting a whole new MMORPG and leaving all my guildies back in WoW. Besides the burning crusade is rad times!
No...if SOE is anywhere near this game, I"m out. They showed just how much they respect their community (NONE) with SWGalaxies. If you don't know what they did, well you should look into it.
Basically a year after release....maybe 2, they completely changed the game so everything people had been working on was gone. No warning, no discussion, no surveys of their current user base to see if they were even interested in such changes....just boom...here's a whole new and different game. Not only that, they implemented these changes like a week or 2 after an expansion pack had been released.
SOE has admitted they made HUGE mistakes with this game. That's fine, I can forgive mistakes but they haven't changed anything back. So it doesn't really appear that they are sorry about the affect on the players, they are simply sorry because they aren't making more money.
No...SOE has zero credibility with me and I won't ever play another game from them.
I downloaded the game from Direct2Drive last night, and will be logging on today after I get off of work. I will check out Flamehammer. Just looking for something different than wow for a while. Personally never really cared for it.
SIGIL is running the show as far as PR is concerned. In all my gaming ive never seen dev's communicate so well with the players. Brad and the other devs have been active daily on fan forums such as gu comics, wtfcomics, vanguardlive, vanbard, and the safehouse; which any that played eq1 would know many of those forums as highly active MMRPG forums. I've seen brad on gucomics many times asking questions and answering concernes from the player base to tailor the game to what the masses want to play. And that is an extreme non-WoW type game. That's what they made it and that's why i love it.
I dont want to be able to dish out 4 lvls a day with ease, i dont want to play instances that anyone can do anytime they feel. I dont want to be able to solo all the way to 60 and totally defeat the whole purpose of "Massive multiplayer" (go play fable for god sake).
I want to have trouble lvl'ing, i want to be punished when i die so maybe im a bit less stupid when adventuring in unknown areas. I want to race to a mob and actually feel the thrill/defeat when going for a mob or raid target. WoW to me seemed the least interactive MMRPG i've ever played. where it almost wants you to play solo rather than with people. EQ1 forced you to interact and that's the whole point of a MMRPG and that's what i want.
Now you can solo in VG but you wont be able to solo the whole way up or rather if you do you're going to find yourself limited and slow in the lvling. 60% of the game is based on grouping with 20% solo and 20% (for now) raid content. Personally its exactly what i expected/wanted of a RPG. havnt enjoyed gaming this much since eq1.
I just got 15 !
So I have an AMD athalon 64 3000, 1 gig ram, and a tweaked nvidia 6800
Is there any point to me buying this game? I can run Age of Empires 3 in 1900x1440 at like 25 FPS
Hey if someone has one of those free trial keys, can they hook an OTOG up?
my buddy plays on a amd 3000 with a 6600gt but on the lowest setting. Honestly though... I have a amd 4200+ X2 7800GT 2gb of ram and I run it on the lowest settings as well and get pretty much same fps. It does not look that great but its a really fun mmo. I think once they get a few more patches in it will be perfect.
if someone hasnt sent you one by my lunch ill send ya one
With your settings you should be decently ok, wont be able to turn it way up tho.
Im playing 1690X1050 using a amd 3700 with 2 gigs ram and also a tweaked 6800. Im able to go about 50% settings and run 20 fps. Even at 50% settings though my roomate who play's WoW Was blown away.
Damn that would be awesome. I'm and old school MMOer. I played Ultima Online before T2a, and EQ1 since launch all the way up to velious. I've tried a bunch of others but none have really got me like those old days, not even WoW.
I don't know if you need it, but my email is paddok @ gmail . com
I dont have one or I'd give ya one. It reminds me so much of old skool eq.
Damn well if this game is as good as you say it is, I can certainly get my good friend who played eq and uo with me into it as well.
This game is crazy good.
They fixed the server/lag issues pretty quickly and the UI which was pissing people off.
Its true, the game was probably rushed out before it was ready for whatever rason, but the improvements are still coming in, and pretty quickly.
The remaining beef i have is character animations - the world scenery/monster looks AMAZING - like AMAING as in like omfg let me trek to the top of the mountain jsut so i cna get a view AMAZING like.
but yea - fcking beef up teh character models - other than that
frikn ridiculous!!!!
Everyday they are patching it. I'd say within 2 months it will be almost perfect.
heard the same with SWG, EvE Online, WOW, EQ2 and everyother MMORPG manufacturer on the market. WoW has more money to spend then all the other MMO companies combined and they still have bugs/balance issues.
No game will ever be perfect.
I really enjoy the game thus far. I think that they did a great job. I am running the game on High settings, not very high but with HDR/Bloom turned on and at 1280x960.
My computer is nearly a year old now... AMD 3800+ 1gig 3200 ram and an nVidia 7800GT Overclocked. Runs smooth for me. I will probably upgrade to 2gigs soon and see if it will run any smoother on the highest settings.

with Secret Invasion winding down, we look forward to next summer's crossover. this seems to be more along the lines of Annihilation, so am not sure what happens to the more-Earthbound heroes (a.k.a. Spidey).
as this poster suggests, it seems to boil down to a showdown between a revitalized Black Bolt and the Sh'iar emperor (and third Summers brother) Vulcan. this means the Inhumans rescue Black Bolt from the Skrulls, although will he still be their king, as his batshit crazy bro Maximus sits on the throne?
among other players, we have the Starjammers leading the resistance against Vulcan. The 'Jammers current leader is Havok, who took his dad's place after being killed by Vulcan/Gabriel. Alex is doubly pissed because he's no longer the youngest child, who always gets all the privileges.
there's also my favorite space cop Nova (sorry, Green Lanterns - his job is much harder because he's all alone policing the universes), who'll likely oppose Vulcan. i hope the Guardians of the Galaxy follow suit.

The Family Synod Survey, developed by a coalition of COR members, which closely followed the questions posed by the Vatican, was completed by a little over 16,500 people by the December deadline. A preliminary report, summarizing the easily tablulated results, was sent to Archbishop Kurtz, President of the USCCB.
The full report, using professionally randomized samples and objectively validated summary techniques, is currently being prepared. When completed, it will be sent to all coalition members as well as Vatican and USCCB officials. We will keep you posted!
Call To Action (www.cta-usa.org) will be holding a webinar discussion of the results with Sr. Chris Schenk, former Executive Director of Future Church and Peter Fagan, the analyst at the end of the month. See the CTA website for details.

Are You Leaving the Heavy Lifting to Pope Francis?
This Pope has been a refreshing change for our Church and the media is going crazy following him, capturing quotes and taking pictures wherever he goes.
Our faith has always been a counter cultural faith and now we are graced with a counter cultural leader. But what does this really mean for our Church? Personally, I am excited and filled with hope on the one hand but my alter-ego is angry as all get out. My anger comes from the passivity of the Baptized.
Many favor this Pope, his espoused and practiced theology, his current priorities to clean house by examining the Curia and making the needed changes by investigating the Vatican Bank improprieties. BUT, most Catholics just watch and talk about their hopes and dreams for the Church under Francis and look to him to do the heavy lifting. Is this fair? Is this just? Is it realistic to leave this big a job to one man?
It's time to wake the sleeping giant of the laity to see themselves differently, to realize they need not be obedient to goofy pronouncements coming from Church leadership that sees them as servile. We have real rights as a result of our Baptism, but we act like children either accepting old Vatican directions or running away. We simply can't give up at this time of opportunity! We're going to Rome to represent you! Please review our collaboration with CCR below to view our plans during this Francis Revolution. These are indeed exciting times!
With hope in YOU,
Janet Hauter, National Chair, ACC
Our Affiliation with
Catholic Church Reform (CCR)
As many of you are aware, we have forged a collaborative relationship with this group that holds a similar vision of the future: the governance of the Church needs to change. This offers common ground for us to have robust conversations and targeted actions. CCR has collaboration already with reform groups in England, Ireland, Austria, the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Australia, South Africa, etc. Relationships are slowly evolving in Japan. Here's what they have achieved so far:
Committees have been formed to develop a parallel lay event at the same time as the October, 2014 synod in Rome (we have a site). The objectives of that event are:
At our fall COR meeting, it was felt that the one-year anniversary of Pope Francis' election (March 15, 2014) created a window of opportunity to get Catholics together for discussion and discernment. "What do you think of how things are going under Francis?" is the basic question. A coalition of COR organizations, including ACC, are collaborating to create a template for a local gathering to do this. Different organizations are contributing two page "resources" on varying topics, to make the discussions easily prompted. The template will include a general introduction and a prayer service as well. All this will be available on a separate website, which will be operational in mid-February. Save a date in March now, to engage with other reformers in your area evaluating the state of our Church and how we can be part of a growing movement of change. Your meeting can be in a living room or a hall, but it is time to plan local change in support of Francis' "revolution".

Amber Heard gets to marry Johnny Depp and have super powers? Some ladies get all the luck!
A source confirms to E! News that the 29-year-old actress is in talks with Warner Bros. to star in Aquaman. Per The Hollywood Reporter (which was first to report the potential casting news) Heard will play Mera, the love interest of Aquaman, who will be played by Jason Momoa.
Per DC Comics' website, Mera's powers include "super strength, Durability, Control over water, Exceptional swimming ability [and the] Ability to breathe underwater." She also "rules the seas alongside Aquaman," the bio notes, "and stands as one of the most powerful women in the D.C. Universe."
We can totally picture Heard playing this part! And if all goes swimmingly, she will first appear as Hera in Justice League Part One, which introduces multiple D.C. Entertainment characters including Aquaman (Momoa), Superman (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) and Batman (Ben Affleck). Per THR, Justice League Part One is due to begin shooting in April 2016 and is set for a Nov. 17, 2017, release.
If you're in need of your superhero fix before then, though, you're in luck: Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice hits theaters Mar. 25. A slew of other DC superhero movies are scheduled for a release over the next two years, actually, but you'll have to wait until July 27, 2018 for Aquaman (the standalone film for Momoa's character and hopefully Heard's) to hit theaters.
On another note, watch Heard show off her buff bod in the video below.

"Appointment booking at GP surgery"
About: Berkshire East PCT Berkshire East PCT Windsor SL4 3DP
Posted by revido (as ),
I recently moved within the same local authority area and consequently changed GPs. My current surgery opens at 8: 30 for appointment booking, which is all handled by phone. I had a number of symptoms which concerned me and which were getting worse, so called at 8: 30 and re-tried until about 9am. I was told that unless my problem was urgent, I would need to wait 3 weeks to see any of the GPs (it's a medium-sized health centre). I didn't feel I could wait that long, so asked for an urgent appointment and was told to call back at 2pm, when urgent appointments are scheduled.
I called at 2pm, again re-dialled until 2: 30pm when I was advised that all the urgent appointments had gone, but one of the GPs would ring me back. I've now been waiting for two and a half hours and am not sure what I need to do if for whatever reason I don't get a call.
My previous surgery (in the same health authority area) had an IVR system where patients could select either urgent appointments, same-day or future appointments up front; obviously you would have to wait longer to see a specific GP or to have an appointment at a specific time, but could generally get an appointment within a couple of days for non-urgent cases. This worked well as it gave patients the flexibility to take a later, routine appointment if they preferred.
It is a concern that my symptoms are quite alarming and that I need advice on how to handle them; happy to have triage over the phone before going to A&E, but it would be useful if I had had this option earlier in the day for an urgent issue.
