Ask and you shall receive
Think before you ask, you may ask for

Look around, everywhere you look,

BMW's tuner will present two models at the upcoming ESSEN Motor Show in Germany. The ACS4 Roadster & Coupe are based on the recently facelifted Z4 Roadster and it's new Coupe, including the M editions.The Essen Motorshow is Germany's version of SEMA, and these days it rivals the Las Vegas show.
At the IAA 1997, with the V8 roadster, AC Schnitzer were the first company to show that a V8 engine fits very neatly in the Z3. This concept car, which received a tumultuous reception in numerous tests by the international motoring press.
Suitability for everyday use under far from everyday conditions. Under this motto, engineers and technicians from AC Schnitzer have developed a product range based on a completely autonomous chassis and aerodynamic concept.
The basis is the BMW Z4 3.0i, in which however "no stone is left unturned". The most striking optical feature is the enclosed bodywork, now 13 cm wider, in colours orange / cream.
Psychologically, tension means excited expectation or apprehension of a proposed event which is either particularly desired or feared. Physically, tension describes a force within a resilient body. Mechanical tension (symbol s) is the force per surface unit which acts in an imaginary section plane through a body, a fluid or a gas. TENSION is also the most important instrument of playwrights and authors for motivating the viewer and reader to watch and read further.
For the MINI a complete AC Schnitzer accessory range is available. Performance upgrades, an aerodynamics range, suspension components with wheel/tyre combinations, and accessories for the interior - leaving nothing to be desired.
For the power plant of the most powerful variant, the BMW Z4 3.0i a supercharger performance upgrade is "in the pipeline". A development achieved in close collaboration with the BMW Motorsport Team Schnitzer.
The BMW X5 was a real challenge for AC Schnitzer, and one which they accepted with enthusiasm. For the first time in the history of AC Schnitzer, test drives were carried out not only on the North Loop of the Nürburgring and on public roads, but also in the country with changing terrain, climbs and descents.
The second "SUV" in the BMW family has arrived, and development work is in full swing on a special accessories range to cover all areas of the vehicle.

The Clockspring Zinfandel incorporates some of the younger plantings on the property resulting in moderate alcohol, but it still exhibits the unique depth of flavor, color and structure akin to Amador Zinfandel. The classic ripe varietal berry and black plum flavors as well as the
"port-like" aromas are evident in this release. Extended aging in American oak barrels averaging 14 months has softened the harsh tannins and a "moderate" alcohol level for the region enhances drinkability.
The 2006 Clockspring Zinfandel is expected to improve in the bottle with up to 5 years of additional cellaring. It should be served at a cool cellar temperature to complement a wide variety of grilled or roasted meats and lightly spiced entrees. This release offers outstanding value in a

THAT's what goblin engineering is about.
Oh yeah. Gnomish Engineering. How's that irradiated city working out?
But wait! We've got X-ray goggles! At least the last thing we see is vaguely enjoyable ourselves while our body rots away.
With the sucky semi-IC joking out of the way, it is a little weird that all of a sudden, they think it's a good idea to re-implement the Gnomish/Goblin Engineering split into Wrath, especially when all signs were pointing to the entire idea of profession specialization going the way of dodo in the near future... and than for something like this. It doesn't even make sense from a lore perspective. Gnomes like arrows, now? Huh?
It's a bad omen. First we get an entire expansion full of gadgets that don't actually ever malfunction, /far/ too many Gnome-looking robots, and now being a Goblin Engineer lets me make.... High-end bullets? Pretty lame, Blizzard. Thanks for the Northrend Portal, but bring some slapstick back to Engineering, please.
Yet another Gnomish Engineer who wants to make bullets. Since it's still on the PTR, maybe there's a possibility that we can persuade Blizzard to remove that restriction, or perhaps give us a way to convert arrows bullets. There were quests back in Vanilla WoW that would give you 200 Thorium Headed Arrows in exchange for 200 Thorium Shells, so perhaps you could do the same here.
Here is yet another Gnomish Engineer that wants bullets. Engineering has some very cool little toys... but otherwise, it feels like we get very little real respect. Changing the stacks of healing/mana potions, and removing our injectors was a slap in the face... now this.

A US energy company's chief executive has walked away with $44 million in severance pay after just one day in the job.
Bill Johnson was chief executive of US-based Progress Energy when the company entered a merger agreement with Duke Energy on June 27, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Mr Johnson assumed the same role at the combined company and signed a three-year deal to stay on as chief executive when the merger was confirmed on July 2.
But at midnight on July 3, after just one day in the role, Mr Johnson announced his resignation, apparently after a falling out with the company's board.
Mr Johnson's hourly pay rate has been calculated at $5.5 million an hour, or around 765,000 times the US minimum wage.
Duke Energy is now facing pressure to reveal what led to the Mr Johnon's sudden departure while the North Carolina Utilities Commission, which approved the merger, is considering launching an investigation.
Mr Johnson has been replaced by former Duke Energy chief executive Jim Rogers.

So Why Would YOU Want a Fox Trotter???
Why would someone want to get a Missouri Fox trotter?
Fox Trotters are versatile, sure footed, horses and have a personality and affection that is unique to the breed. They excel in many disciplines, including endurance, cutting, roping, ranch work, jumping and agility. There is nothing quite like this horse breed with their good ambling gait for enjoyment and purpose on a long, all day trail ride. Finding an easy going comfortable horse to ride with spirit, personality, and comfort that will go the distance is what you get in the fox trotter. They are loyal and strong, and yet forgiving. The fox trotter is a great horse to consider for a retirement horse and every day use.
As we age many of us remember the fun we had as a youth riding horses. However, even if you have never ridden before and have always thought you wanted to learn, then finding a good, well tempered, smooth gaited horse will answer and satisfy a life long love quest for the right horse. Staying involved with horses as an older rider can be challenging. It just might be that you will find a new lease on life by getting involved with a fox trotter. Whether you are looking to find a horse who will go through big life transitions with you, or join you as you retire, spending time and interacting with this fantastic breed will be an adventure in itself. The fox trotter is one such companionable horse.
In Palm Springs, Florida, and in many other areas, folks are enjoying the Fox Trotter and starting large groups of retired and semi retired riders. More people are discovering what a pleasant ride, personality and relationship you can have with fox trotters. They are easy to train, easy on the back with their Cadillac of gaits, and wonderful to partner up. When you find a good horse match that is well broke but always ready to learn more, you can, at 60 years of retirement age, continue to ride into the horse's 20's giving you riding pleasure into your 80's and more! Gaited fox trotters will make all your transitions smooth and enjoyable.
This sweet, sensible breed with a nice and easy going, ground-covering gait will give you miles of enjoyment and you can endure longer in the saddle. You may even find that the unique gentle motion of the fox trot may improve your muscle tone, balance, and give your body a mild workout, while strengthening your side to side muscles around your spine instead of the up and down jarring of the hard trot. As a bonus you can see and enjoy some great local country on your outings. I look at it as health insurance because you are getting fresh air, exercise, and engaged in an activity that provides emotional, physical, and mental stimulation. For retirees or anyone looking to find a friendly mount with a comfortable gait and engaging personality. G
et a Fox Trotter!

Myra and her two offspring Skywalker and Flash. Flash is the paint filly out of Southern Sunrise's Jackpot, born 9/5/10 and Skywalker is the big boned red sorrel gelding, out of Kings Peppy Badger, born May 10th 2001. Miss Myra a 1986 bay quarter horse mare and matriarch of the ranch.
This corner is dedicated to Miss Myra our beloved quarter mare with my son Evan on top. We compared her hard trot to the fox trotter trot...what a difference!

Her last foal "Flash" is an excellent example of what a Quarter Horse/Fox Trotter cross can do, however we are dedicated to preserving the Fox Trotter lines in our top fox trotter breedings and have quality fox trotters for sale each year. Each pure bred fox trotter will receive a fox trotter brand mark on their left shoulder.

Anonymous said: Once when my best friend and I were really drunk we kissed and we promised to never talk of that night again. But I think about it sometimes and I wonder what it would be like to kiss her sober and possibly do more than kiss and I think I could be good for her. We always tell each other what if one of us was a boy, but... what if neither one of us has to be a boy?
I think that is something you just need to talk to her about. Tell her your feeling and see where that goes. The worst thing she can say is no ya know?
There is nothing bad about asking :)

When Clayton County teacher Shekema Silveri won the Milken award last month, the most prestigious prize in education, another teacher commented to me, "That's her ticket to a better job anywhere she wants."
Silveri won't be cashing in that ticket, saying she is where she was called to be — with students who thrive on her love and support.
"I want students who actually appreciate a teacher who loves them," she says. "I would not be in my element in a school where students said, 'I don't need a teacher to love me because I have two parents and a nanny.'"
Silveri's deep affection for her students at Mount Zion High School in Jonesboro takes many forms, from cautioning them at the start of the weekend, "Come back to me safely. I love you," to daily texts to a teen whose mother died three years ago, "Good morning princess, God loves you, and so do I," to shopping for groceries on Saturday for a needy student.
She gives her students her cell phone number for homework help at night and regularly engages in online writer's conferences with them via Skype.
As winner of a $25,000 Milken Educator Award, Silveri, chair of her school's language arts department, has now been recognized as one of the top teachers in the United States. She is married to fellow Clayton educator, William Silveri, who shares her belief that the job is a calling.
"I am my students," she says. "I grew up in public housing after my grandmother died and I had to go back to live with my mother. I have been homeless with a 5-week-old baby. I knew that I wanted more than what I had seen in my life."
The 35-year-old mother of four understands the appeal of more affluent schools in upscale suburbs. Silveri attended one of them under the minority to majority program, M-to-M, which allowed students from less-successful schools in south Fulton to attend higher performing ones in the north side of the county.
"I graduated Riverwood high school in Fulton County through the M-to-M program. I was getting on a bus at 6 a.m. just to get a good teacher. I promised then that if I ever had an opportunity to fix that, I would."
Her first opportunity came through a free after-school tutorial program she began in Atlanta to work with girls ages 12 to 18, but she decided that she could accomplish more in a classroom fulltime.
In Silveri's own life, two Riverwood teachers inspired her, Melissa Anderson and Connie Dyleski. "They saw something in me that I didn't see in myself,'' she says. The pair insisted she was college material and encouraged her to apply.
"My mother was on public assistance," says Silveri. "I never even thought poor people could go to college."
A top student in college and grad school, Silveri is a doctoral candidate at Georgia State University. At her high school, she has become a teacher leader, with colleagues from Clayton and the state observing her classes. She travels this week to St. Louis to help rewrite the National Assessment of Educational Progress 12th-grade writing standards.
In giving her the award, the Milken Foundation cited her accomplishments in the classroom, noting that 100 percent of her students passed the state End of Course Test for American Literature. This year Silveri is teaching only advanced placement classes where she uses technology on a regular basis. During a recent visit to her classes, students engaged in a discussion via Skype with Megan Felt of the Lowell Milken Center about its Unsung Heroes project, which Silveri's students are doing, and watched a documentary about an environmental activist in Africa.
In one class, after listening to a director of an area nonprofit describe his agency's mission, Silveri marched her 25 AP students outside where they huddled in groups to figure out ways they could help. (She may use some of her prize money, she says, for a gazebo on the green so students could sit and work.)
Her students leap up to volunteer information about why they love Silveri, lining up to laud her ability to take discussions to a higher level and to connect passages in books with real-life events and personal experiences. During class discussions, students openly relate literature to their own experiences being homeless or never seeing their father.
"I tell students there will be tears. But this class is a healing place, a therapeutic place. It has to be," she says. "The hardest part about my job is that I never get a moment alone. Even at lunch, kids come to sit and talk with me."
So where is her therapeutic retreat?
"My place is in my van in my driveway," she says. "I go sit in my driveway and crank up the music. But it has to be gospel."

@ slob
No one likes to be patronized. You have used your spawn's school and held it up to equal ALL schools. And about the contract; feel free to contact your representative and let me know how that goes…
November 13th, 2011
12:44 pm
Hey doc
I'm not holding up anything. I call it like I see it here in mighty whitey world. And I have discussed the contract with Brooks Coleman among others. Mr. Coleman claims teachers are overworked and under compensated. But that is coming from a retired teached/administrator who also has a daughter in the business. Things that make you go HHMMM?
I think this mornings article titled "If parents set real limits, students will succeed" has a very good point. If teachers will also contribute to the solution making certain students don't leave school each day unless they have a command of the days lesson, we together may have stumbled on the solution to this problem. I think this will correct bad behavior as teachers will no longer tollerate such behavior in schools. Not when it affects what time they are allowed to walk out the door each school day. And if your students don't pass the CRCT, teachers will be mandated to teach during the summer until students have a command of the material taught during the year. And none of this every student has an A for a grade. They all already have that. They just seem to be having a hard time scoring at or above a MEETS SCORE on the CRCT. Kind of takes something away from all those wonderful A's.
All in favor say "AYE."
Everyone else continue to say Iphone. Perhaps they now have an app for that!

"I know many people who claim the title CHRISTIAN, but I know of only a handful who do what this woman does. Very refreshing to see someone who's acts mirror their beliefs."
How right you are! You should read the Book of James. Now, do you consider yourself one of these people? Do your actions reflect your words?
November 13th, 2011

Not taking anything away from her achievements, but there ARE many teachers in Clayton and all around GA with the same level of dedication. Just curious, was her Friday class was aligned with the almighty standards? Was her essential question posted and addressed? My big question is how does she get to go to St. Louis give Ed Heatley's punitive teacher attendance policy?

Our forefathers were very aware that the word GOD was a term that covered many beliefs and religions. The term God wasn't what caused them to leave Europe. The Jesus Christ seems to have been the culprit. That is the imaginary fellow that seems to have caused them all their pain and suffering. Please note. Our money dosen't say in Jesus Christ We Trust.There is a reason for that.
As for what I/we give and contribute to the local needs, I contribute as much as I/we can afford. Time included. The we is our family if you are confused by the term. It may be less than others contribute and in some cases it may be more. Our giving has nothing to do with standards. Simply needs. You see, there is no REVIVAL TENT in our yard. So much for Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show.

@Slob. You seem to have misunderstood my question. First, what are your beliefs? Second, do your actions mirror them?
A simple, yes, no, or sometimes, would suffice.

"Milken Educator Shekema Silveri believes her classroom has to be healing place for her students."
Oh brother. A "healing place?" Really? So 90's, might as well have Jesse or Useless Lowery standing in regurgitating some additional nothingness.
All flash no substance.

Truth in Moderation-Says you?
Are you really that important that you think you can tell people how to respond and what to say? Now that is a typical modern day teacher mentality. And your first response was priceless. Read this and then tell me if you are one of these people? Please get some help. They have medication today to help with these overwhelming feelings of self importance. Keep working on trying to get your dog to sit on command. One step at a time. Good luck!
If the english language isn't your strong suit please advise and I will see if I can find someone to translate my last post to your native tounge. Perhaps that will help you to find the answers you so desperately seek. Now go child! And may God be with you!

@Dr. No,
In a perfect world, you would be correct. But it isn't, and it is rapidly getting worse. Severely dysfunctional homes are becoming the norm. It is undeniable that children who are victims of violence or sexual perversions, will bring their cares with them to school. They don't have a normal healthy emotional support system at home. Their parents aren't parents, but in some cases, are criminals to be feared. This teacher recognizes this status of many of her students and tries, in the power of her faith, to overcome this evil. It would seem that she is having success, AND THIS IS A GOOD THING! There is a lady at my church who is a Foster Parent. She is very kind and loving to them and brings them to church, so they can have the hope of Christ in their heart and emotional healing. Her current foster child is a beautiful 10 year old girl. My friend told me that all six children in the family had been abused by the father. This young girl, now separated from her family, will be put up for adoption. Even with this heart breaking background, surrounded by a loving church family and the redemptive love of Christ, she is starting to smile again and trust again.

Elite Mens Start of the Boston Marathon.
The race will be televised in its entirety locally on WBZ-TV (Channel 4), and the station will also be streaming live race coverage throughout New England on CBSBoston.com. The race will be broadcast nationally on Universal Sports, and online at UniversalSports.com.
1996 - Centennial Boston Marathon
The historic centennial Boston Marathon in 1996 was monumental for many reasons. It was the not only the first time that the ChampionChip timing and scoring device was used in a major US Marathon, but it was the largest running event ever held at the time.
The starting field of 38,708 stood for more than seven years as the largest in the history of the sport. Included among the finishers were 16 Boston champions.

After managing to tidy up her house, she noticed a jellybean plant outside, and being a lover of jelly-beans, she greedily ate one… which turned her blue.
She was so angry she kicked over the gnome, and then went inside to practice her Alchemy, with high hopes of getting to the top of the Alchemist career one day. She had to start somewhere.
Her new house and already disaster had struck - the plumbing was broken and there were puddles everywhere.
Katie Turner decided to get down to work and start repairing everything, before she moved all of her important furniture in.

Northern Maidenhair, Alpine Spleenwort, Alpine Lady, Lady, Lace, Parsley, Brittle, Triangular Wood, Male, Oak, Licorice, Bristle or Vancouver, Mountain Holly, Sword, Bracken, Deer, Stream or Sierra Water...Yes, these are all common names of the true ferns which can be found and identified here in Mount Rainier!! I thought I had just about conquered the identification of the ferns in the park until I looked into the park collections!
Ferns have been around for quite some time. In fact, they have been on Earth for 500 million years and are among the oldest vascular plants in the fossil record. Their claim to fame occurred during the Carboniferous period when they were among the dominant land plants. Today there are about 10,000 known fern species in the world. Thirty of these can be found in the Pacific Northwest.
The plant we commonly think of as a fern is actually only one of the two stages in the life cycle of the fern. It is an asexual generation which bears spores. These spores are dispersed and if they find suitable conditions the spores will form tiny one-half inch, heart-shaped plants called prothallus. These are self-supporting green plants containing both the male and female reproductive cells, which in time will grow into the asexual fern with which we are familiar.
Here in Mount Rainier National Park there are 17 species of true ferns. Sword fern is the most common of these. Bracken ferns often will grow in disturbed areas created by roads, clearcuts, and fires. Licorice fern has a licorice taste. Mountain Holly fern grows in rocky areas, Maidenhair fern received its name from either the slender black leafstalks or from the fine black fibrous roots. Some ferns such as Parsley fern resemble a moss or as the name suggests the flowering plant, Parsley. Lady fern and Male fern in some way must have represented to early herbalists the two sexes, often growing together in the forests. Other ferns may have habitats ranging from rocky cliffs to damp, dark rain forests. Unlike flowering plants which you sometimes need the flower present to easily identify, ferns, unless found in the prothallus stage, can be identified year-round. With a little time and patience you can become familiar with and become able to identify many of the common true ferns found here at Mount Rainier.
Evony Smith
During off-season in the museum, I would ask visitors who wandered in if they knew what a Brown Creeper is, and if they didn't, I would ask them to guess what it might be. a Several interesting answers came forth. A few believed that it is a mammal that is active in the nighttime. Others guessed that it is a bug (like a Brown Recluse), still others thought of it as a vine (Virginia Creeper's cousin.)
Some visitors were right on the mark--it is a small, inconspicuous bird, mottled brown in appearance, that inhabits the forested sections of the United States. The Brown Creeper is active on the trunks of trees where its curved beak helps to locate bark insects, eggs, and larvae. What a delight it would be to see this bird on one of those twisted trunks, for its manner of movement is in a spiral one--always circling upwards rather than down. In fact, the bird will fly all the way back down to the base, and only then will he ascend, using his stiff tail as a prop on the trunk.
This bird is of interest to us because of its reliance on dead standing trees. The Creeper builds an elongated cup nest behind loose bark attached to the trunk, and sometimes will use the mycelia of fungi to fasten the nest onto the tree. In order for the Brown Creeper to survive, it needs a constant supply of trees with sloughing bark. Since the park has no shortage of dead trees, the future of the Creeper's existence in our park is secure.

From: Mount Rainier - A Record of Exploration ed. by Edmond S. Meany 1916.
GRAND PARK -- A high and extensive area in the northern portion of the Park. The miles of relatively level ground, flower-strewn and ornamented with circular groves of sub-alpine firs and hemlocks, with deer abundant every summer, make the name an appropriate one. Elevation @ 5,700 feet above sea level.

The Garden Center and Nursery is My First Stop at the Hardware Store
My wife and I find ourselves at our local hardware store on a semi-monthly basis, and most of the time, we have different goals in mind. I usually have something to fix, whereas she may have an idea about how she would like to decorate. One thing that we both agree on, however, is that the garden center and nursery is almost always our first stop in the store, and there are occasions where it is the only stop that we make before heading home.
One of my wife's favorite pastimes is gardening, and she is always looking for new ways to improve the appearance of our yard. She regularly wants to go to the garden center and nursery at the hardware store we frequent, and she has become an expert at picking out the best flowers and shrubs to decorate our yard and porch. She told me that she loves the idea of having all sorts of colors and flora in our yard because it reminds her of where she grew up, in the country.
I have gotten the gardening bug as well, and I will often go to the garden center and nursery to buy fresh fruits and vegetables to plant. I have to say that there is no greater feeling of accomplishment for me than to plant fruits and vegetables, water and care for them, and then harvest them so that our family can enjoy them at our dinner table. Each year, my wife and kids can depend on fresh tomatoes, corn, watermelon, green beans, squash, and a variety of other produce cultivated by the hands of dear old Dad!
The garden center and nursery is not just good for things to grow, either. My wife and I will go there a lot of times to buy edging and river rocks. We have also gone there to buy bricks to serve as barriers for different areas. I, personally, like buying mulch from the garden center, because I know that it will have all of the nutrients my fruits and vegetables need to grow hardy and healthy. I have also bought cedar chips to make a walkway in our backyard, which makes a nice little trail and smells great!
The garden center and nursery is one of our favorite places to shop. There are so many things we can get from there, and it is a way for us to spend time together doing something that we know is going to make our home a little bit nicer. We never get tired of it, and hopefully we will one day be able to pass that on to our own children.

Hardwired for Passion
- Saturday, July 09, 2011
It was the love of the Cause that led a pastor to say, after spending night after night chained in a Chinese prison simply for preaching the gospel, "I will preach until I die."
Like heroes and history-changers throughout time, you know you were made for something beyond yourself. If you've ever felt afraid of that ultimate purpose, don't be. It's wooing you. You've felt it sneak up on you, taking a giant spoon and stirring up your soul, calling you in a voice that seeps into your bones and makes itself unforgettable.
The ultimate Cause is calling you.
Too often, we confuse the Cause with other causes with small c's. I've mistaken it tons of times, pursuing wild goose chases like beauty, acceptance, and even "respectable causes" like other people's esteem or love. (Who doesn't want to feel respected and cherished?) But those chases have left me empty-handed, feeling silly and used.
Here's the only thing I can say: If you and I come face to face with the Cause, I guarantee we will never be the people we were before. We will cease to revolve around thesun as our lives find a new, blazing center. Our search fora purpose to define our existence will end. We will not run out of questions, but we will, at last, find the Answer to all things.

Remember when Sega and M2 added new songs by Manabu Namiki and Chibi-Tech to Out Run 3D? Well… you can buy them, along with like every song ever from the series, in a three-volume soundtrack collection released yesterday.
Volume 1 (Out Run, 3D Out Run, Turbo Out Run) Volume 2 (OutRunners) and Volume 3 (Out Run 2) are $9.49 each on Amazon or $9.99 each from iTunes. Of course, you could also buy individual tracks if you just want one on loop for your cross-country drive.
BUY Nintendo 2DS & 3DS/XL, upcoming games
Not sure why, but M2 went ahead and added new music (and a new car?) to the 3D Classics version of OutRun, coming out April 23 in Japan: "Cruising Line" by Manabu Namiki and "Camino a Mi Amor" by Jane-Evelyn Nisperos.
There's also… a new car, three different simulated cabinets, four screen modes, totally remappable controls, replay saving (with multi-speed playback), mid-race saving, customizable volume for game audio, engine noise and ambient arcade machine sound…
This is deluxe even for Sega 3D Classics! M2 has OutDone itself.

For some reason, I feel like people were worried this wouldn't happen, but of course it is! OutRun's logo has been added to the group of Sega 3D Classics on Sega's Japanese site, confirming that it will be next.
There's no information on it – including release date or what crazy abundance of options will be available, but it's coming to Japan sometime soon.

I haven't been paying attention to Sonic & All-Star Racing Transformed at all, but apparently it's a top-tier kart racer? I don't think I can disagree, not when it has Shenmue's Ryo Hazuki drifting in an Outrun cabinet (just like this crazy thing I wrote about three years ago).
It looks like this might be free DLC coming to the PC version, though I haven't seen it ruled out for the console editions yet. There's also a pic of Ryo riding a Hang-on sit-down machine in water. O_O

VB Racing, a homebrew Outrun clone for the Virtual Boy.
I totally missed this, but Planet Virtual Boy held a homebrew coding competition earlier this year, and Martin Kujaczynski's VB Racing took third place (out of six entries).
Unfortunately, VB Racing doesn't share Outrun's wonderful soundtrack, but it's still a remarkable looking game, especially when you consider that this is Kujaczynski's first Virtual Boy project and that he managed to include the following:
As for the game that beat out VB Racing and won the homebrew coding competition, that would be Pat Daderko's Mario Kart Virtual Cup:

Geez.. it's like the season ending finale... and having to wait for the next season opener.... Until then, know you are not alone.... *alone with CT, that is*
Been in that place Chubbs.. pretty much every weekend since I bought the Egg... inviting over people for Saturday, and spending Sunday sheepishly cleaning up and apologizing ALOT...
(flowers don't help as much as they should)
And the worst...wondering if SWMBO has found about next Saturday yet, or if I should stick to the "don't ask for permission, beg for forgiveness" reasoning........it's a vicious cycle.
However... I always, always, always, remove the empty Fat Tire bottle from the shower. Always. (Watch more CSI... it's called evidence.)
I have little concern... you have the cooking chops to carry you through the haziest of haze. If the city doesn't like your food....send them to McDonald's for a McRib. Then... find a recliner with some more Woodford. All's well.
Realized today when I cut on camera I forgot to post pics from this cook.... Here you go..

About Us
The founders of Exolus were part of the very first generation of global strategic advisors, the "investment pioneers" who expanded companies to the most remote and farthest corners of the world. They set off as the Soviet Union collapsed and a new global economic landscape was unveiled with the fall of the "Iron Curtain", most of it previously unexplored by foreign investors. As they worked their way across the entire span of previously-unexplored Central and Eastern Europe, they were also working their way across other major largely-unexplored geographies of the world. They pushed the proverbial global investment frontier, heading off to all of the world's new markets as each began to open to foreign investment -- deep within such countries such a China, India, Vietnam, Brazil.
Since the onset of that extraordinary global transformation, they have continued to take the world's leading corporations to virtually every major geography in the world. They advise their clients on leading global strategies and carry out complex cross-border transactions: M&A, Greenfield Investments, Joint Ventures, and Outsourcing. Leveraging a wealth of experiential knowledge, they carry out projects that range in investment size from USD10 million to greater than USD1 billion ...

2008 Nissan Quest 3.5 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
We bought a NEW Nissan Quest in 2008. When we first bought we enjoyed every aspect of it. About a month later the problems began. The windows would whistle as we picked up speed (dealership claimed it was normal), we had some problems with ac not working properly (dealership fixed), and then a few years later the cheap car starts having more and more issues. The passengers side mirror cover on the visor falls off, the body rattles, the passengers side window motor quit working, the brake disks warped and had to be replaced, you so much as sneeze on the thing and the paint will scratch or the body dents. Features are nice but van is built too cheap. Cant wait to get rid of it!!

2008 Nissan Quest 3.5 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Well within the first year and a half, I had to take van back to dealer for quite a few fixes. There was a missing piece in the braking component, they replaced it, they had to replace the seals for the sliding door and hatch, the visors broke off just by opening them, they were replaced. My van was bogging while driving,check engine light came on with that,car had to be towed back to dealership, they had to change out the cylynoids. The a/c came on when it felt like it.they changed two major components for the a/c. went to p/u van after a/c repair, van would not start. end result, could not lemon law. didnt have 3x for the same problem.traded van in for a 2009 altima.wish me luck! :(

2008 Nissan Quest 3.5 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
My Quest is Awesome. It gets great gas mileage that ranges between 27-30 MPG on the highway. Tons of space. Phenomenal acceleration. Maximum performance is obtained by using 5W-30 Valvoline SynPower Oil or Castrol Edge (Synthetic Oil). Have not had any problems with it at all. Absolutely the best Mini-Van option on the Market. I got a great deal, that Ford, Toyota, nor Honda could match. The fold down rear seating options come in handy for moving days or hauling delicate items. Would buy again it opportunity arises. Great amount of features for base model. This van gots it all.

2008 Nissan Quest 3.5 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
We needed larger transportation so we checked out Honda, Toyota and Nissan. The Nissan had what we needed and at the right price. We drove 300 miles to the shore the next week and got 29.6 mpg all highway with cruse control. Mixed driving is 21 mpg. Love the tinted glass on the base model. It carries everything you need to take the family on vacation. It is also great for getting on the highway, very good acceleration.

2008 Nissan Quest 3.5 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
We looked at all minivans before looking at the quest, it was our final stop. I test drove it and loved it! It does drive like a car and is very comfortable. I love the room inside. The seats are very comfortable. I am getting the average minivan gas mileage so i cant complain about that. I would recommend this van to anyone, and for what you get for the price compared to odyssey and sienna its a great deal. I also love that all the seats can fold flat without having to be taken out of the vehicle.

25 foot prehistoric shark had spiral of teeth that worked like a Chainsaw
Ouch! Image at link.
A 25ft monster 'shark' with chainsaw teeth that roamed the prehistoric seas 270 million years ago has been revealed by scientists.
The bizarre fish Helicoprion, an early ancestor of sharks, had a conveyor belt of jagged teeth that spiralled out of its lower jaw and ripped prey to shreds.
Using state of the art scanners to create 3-D virtual reconstructions of its jaws, researchers have now discovered what the ancient beast would have looked like as it homed in on marine animals.

Delicious and has a great texture! I used the Magic Bullet and just threw in all the ingredients and blended for 30 seconds. Viola!
I made this today. It's very good and would make it again. It took less than the 20 minutes to make. Very tasty.
A bit garlicky but we like it that way! Had all the fresh herbs on hand, and might have added some fresh tarragon, too. Tastes even better the next day.

West Kelowna News
Hall renos await green light
A decision by an insurance company will ultimately determine when the Westbank Lions Hall will be ready to open again.
Construction at the hall has been going on for about two months in an effort to repair damage caused by a fire that partially destroyed the building on Sept 1, 2013.
Lions Club spokesman, Rick Hebner, says phase one of the re-construction is complete - now, they are waiting.
"What we are waiting for now is for the insurance company to make a decision on who is going to finish off the re-construction of the building," says Hebner.
"Up until this time Winmar has been looking after it because it has all been considered building stabilization. Now that the envelope of the building is complete the insurance company has to decide whether they are going to carry on and let Winmar finish the job or whether they are going to go out to other contractors."
Hebner says if Winmar is able to finish the job, they figure the Lions could return to the hall by the end of June.
"If they go out to tender and go with another company we have no idea when we will be back in the building."
He says everyone involved is pushing for Winmar to continue on and complete the project.
"Winmar has done an excellent job for us. Everything is on time and on budget," says Hebner.
According to Hebner about 80 or 90 per cent of the work remaining is interior work such as insulation, replacing the furnaces, plumbing work, drywall, flooring, carpets, paint and fixtures.
Siding on the exterior also needs to be put up.
Hebner says the Lions have started taking wedding reception bookings for the fall but adds they have been telling clients to keep checking back on progress of the re-construction.
The Westbank Lions Hall was insured for just under $3M.
The fire, deemed suspicious, is being investigated by West Kelowna RCMP.
No arrests have been made.

This is a rather dramatic overreaction to something that isn't half as bad as half as bad as you make it sound.
As it stands you are NOT levelling fast enough to simply not know how to use your abilities. You would have to be levelling at 5, maybe 10 times normal speed to not have the chance to test out the skills you get.
There are two types of players in the recruit a friend program, new players and the vets. Now the new players have a vet holding their hand throughout almost the entire experience so them not understanding what to do isn't an issue. The only issue I can see with this is that they are missing old world content but the old world is mostly dead and they will probably see it eventually anyway if they level an alt later on (after the 90 days are up).
The vets will already have experienced playing WoW and will almost certainly have a vague idea of how to play a class. As I said before you aren't advancing fast enough to not learn to effectively use the abilities you get at each level so learning how that class plays specifically isn't an issue either. Missing content is also a nonissue since the players will have already grinded their face off through the old world at least once (and in alot of cases many times).
Ofcourse this is all very general. There will always be the mouthbreathers who still manage to "do it wrong" and no amount of extra time levelling will fix that other than possibly causing them to get bored and stop playing.

I can offer some advice to holy paladins.
You'll want devotion aura for this fight, since the only magic damage is the black blood which nobody should be taking. Additionally, since the damage is almost entirely physical, glyph of divine protection is useless.
Now, given your high armour level it's worth considering having yourself be the soak with the tank, defensive cooldowns like divine protection will reduce healing intensity slightly but I never found the damage high enough to be mandatory until he frenzies, at which point you should start throwing out any offensive cooldowns you have laying around still as well as popping bubbles for stomps.
Flash of light will be your top heal, it's also worth considering glyph of LoD for 10-mans but given the very dynamic positioning requirements you might just go with Lay on Hands instead, again Divine protection is a bad choice so you might as well replace it with something.
Mana isn't a massive concern for this fight because it has a very clearly established cooldown period to regen, I never found mana to be a problem even during progression and even with the heavy reliance of Flash of Light.
