Clippers cut Chinese star Ma on eve of season
MA Jian, hoping to be the first Chinese player in a regular-season National Basketball Association game, will have to wait longer for the opportunity.
The Los Angeles Clippers made Ma their final roster cut entering the opening of the season. The club also put Pooh Richardson on injured reserve to reach the maximum 12-man roster.
Ma had played at the University of Utah and was given a strong chance to make the Clippers. He played in several pre-season exhibitions but was edged for the final reserve berth.
Ma said he was shocked and surprised at being cut, but added he has not given up on reaching the NBA. He remains a free agent and could be signed by any club should injuries arise.

We've rang in the new year, reminisced over the previous year's highlights and inevitable low points and made our resolutions (whether or not we stick to them remains to be seen).
In business, it seems as though we make resolutions too, though we call them goals, objectives, and projects. And as the resolutions that we make as individuals sometimes are quickly forgotten, the goals we set for our own businesses and organizations are sometimes set aside for what appears to be bigger and better ideas.
As I reflect on 2012, the single biggest endeavor that I've had the opportunity to embark upon is my role at the Williamstown Chamber of Commerce.
In taking the lead at the Chamber, I've been able to spend the last four months contemplating our goals, resolutions and the future for our member businesses and organizations and the greater Williamstown and Northern Berkshire area.
I assure you, I certainly don't (and can't) do it alone!
I have a dedicated board of directors and community partners that have assisted me along the way.
Just as I rely heavily on the support of others to meet my goals, our businesses and organizations rely on each other.
A major initiative that I've implemented includes building stronger partnership within our community.
When I look at my listing of Chamber members, I am impressed with the variety of membership: for-profit businesses including restaurants, hotels, retail stores, service industries, realtors, banks, craftsmen and women, attorneys, accountants; non-profit organizations that provide direct service, education, healthcare, community services.
And the list goes on.
The partnerships that I'm most interested in fostering growth within include those between the for-profit and non-profit members.
Depending upon whom I mention this to, I generally receive two responses: "Oh, you feel bad for the non-profit because they have tight budgets" or "The for-profits have cash to spend."
In reality, neither of these statements is true.
Sure, I am altruistic in philosophy and deed, probably not any more than any of you are, but I don't think that the for-profit businesses are a cash cow with piles of disposable money either.
Strengthening the relationships between these entities is mutually beneficial. In fact, I think the greater benefit spills into our entire community.
For instance, I'm working with a local non-profit human service organization and a for-profit restaurant to build a relationship that wouldn't have normally existed.
The organization will benefit from having a fundraising event at the restaurant.
In turn the restaurant will benefit from the business and possibly gain future customers.
Also, they're able to show their commitment to their community. I know, it all seems so easy, why am I putting such an emphasis on it?
Often times, the most obvious relationships that should exist, don't.
Our non-profit businesses have gotten a bad rap by some, the some that assume non-profit equates to saying they have "no money."
However, these organizations employ local people, utilize local goods and services and put money back into our local economy.
In the same way, for-profit businesses don't want to be seen as an endless opportunity for donations, but they do realize the benefit of supporting their local non-profits because it will lead to their own greater growth.
And look at that, we see growth for the greater community.
I told you that would happen.
So in keeping with the spirit of resolutions, goals, initiatives, I'm happy to note that this column is another new endeavor for 2013.
While the topic of bridging the non-profit and for-profit world is the focus for this column, I'm interested in offering the Chamber's perspective on many topics.
I'm hopeful that you, as the reader, will send some topics of interest to me so that I can consider them for the column.

United States | 1963 | Jack Smith
Critic J. Hoberman calls Jack Smith's Flaming Creatures "the most liberating Underground movie of the sixties…also the most notorious." (It was banned repeatedly.) Inspired by such trashy and exotic 1940s Technicolor fantasies as Cobra Woman and Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, the movie depicts a makeshift harem where an odd assortment of transvestites and women play "dress up" and thrash around, half naked, in a nonstop orgiastic frenzy. "The most important avant-garde film ever made in America." –David Ehrenstein. Preceded at 9:30 by Barbara's Rubin's controversial, confrontational, double-screen projection of sex and genitalia, Christmas on Earth (USA, 1963), also marking its 50th anniversary this year.

Out of cash and understaffed, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department has suspended its faltering effort to analyze DNA evidence from thousands of rape and sexual assault cases, the Los Angeles Times reports.
The department halted shipments of the genetic evidence to private crime laboratories at the end of May after funds allotted for the testing ran dry, according to a report submitted by Sheriff Lee Baca to the county Board of Supervisors late last week.

Rick Nichols is feeling nostalgic for a time before Philadelphia's BYOB boom, a time when a visit to Dmitri's was almost magical. Now Nichols visits the third Dmitri's and finds that the Northern Liberties location can take you home again.

Bart Blatstein has been running Vino at the Piazza at Schmidt's and effective Monday, February 1st he'll be handing the reins over to Italian restaurateurs Fabio Auguadro and Andrea Scotacci. The new name will be Apollinare and upgrades to the setting and staff can be expected. [The Insider]
Dmitri's third location is about a month out at 944 N 2nd Street. [The Insider]
Among the dinner additions coming to Hawthornes on February 3rd, a french fry menu with toppings like pulled pork, jerk chicken and dipping sauces. [Meal Ticket]
Verdad is adding 30 seats upstairs as well as a garden deck. [Philadelphia Inquirer]
Michael Klein reports that Dmitri Chimes is adding a third location to his Dmitri's empire. The grilled-octopus emporium is going in to the old Elixir Cafe on North 2nd Street. Opening is set for late September and like the original, it will be BYOB.
A third Dmitri's [The Insider]
We have a soft spot for soft shell crabs. We've already sampled the soft shell crab sandwich at the Standard Tap. We're looking forward to our first order of soft shells at Dmitri's. It looks like Bridget Foy's might be just as crazy about the cuddly crustacean as we are.
From now to June 30th, Bridget Foy's is offering four different soft shell crab specials.
Bridget Foy's [Official Site]
Tim McGinnis breaks down where to enjoy octopus all year round but in so doing, he takes a big-time shot at Dmitri's!
When compiling a list of all things overrated in Philadelphia, Field Guide has Geno's Steak's, Hall and Oates and Rocky 2 through 6 all somewhere near the top. But after dining on Dmitri's (2227 Pine St. 215.985.3680) octopus we've decided it beats them all to a pulpo. The "small plate†of drywall tough legs was served up in a fishy, oily sauce by an apathetic slacker staff more interested in reading their art industry magazines than delivering great grub. It made us as disappointed as a kid at Christmas with a stocking full of tube socks.
So what do you think readers, does Tim have a point?
Is the octopus at Dmitri's overrated?

Dimitri's is an affordable way to sample some of the finest seafood in the city. Two appetizer plates and three large entrees came to $60 before tip. Large plates are also very large. I'd been on a small fast all day to save room for the dinner I knew I was going to love, but I still had to ask for half a dozen of my scallops to be wrapped up for lunch the next day.

Chesapeake's $3B loan puts pressure on McClendon
- Staff Houston Business Journal
Chesapeake Energy Corp. (NYSE: CHK) received a $3 billion lifeline from New York banks May 11, increasing the pressure on CEO Aubrey McClendon to sell Texas oilfields and find deep-pocketed drilling partners, Bloomberg reports.
Chesapeake told investors on May 11 that it may be forced to postpone oilfield sales and joint-venture agreements to conserve cash flow needed to comply with bank covenants. Within hours, the company announced a $3 billion short-term loan from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Jefferies Group Inc. to tide it over until it can find buyers for assets, Bloomberg reports.
Chesapeake, the worst-performing U.S. oil and natural-gas stock this year, can't afford to delay $14 billion in asset sales that it warned investors may hurt its ability to comply with earlier loan agreements. The company is trying to cope with a cash crunch caused by low natural-gas prices, Bloomberg reports.
Indeed, Dallas billionaire investor T. Boone Pickens said he sold his entire stake in Oklahoma-based Chesapeake. The Pittsburgh Business Journal, citing a Bloomberg report, said that Pickens told attendees at the Skybridge Alternatives Conference in Las Vegas that his investment company, BP Capital Management, had sold its stake.
The company, the nation's second largest natural gas producer, said it plans to sell $9.0 billion to $11.5 billion in assets this year. Chesapeake's major competitor is Irving-based Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE: XOM), which has a significant presence in Houston.
Chesapeake expects to close the sales of its Permian Basin property in West Texas and Mississippi Lime joint venture in the third quarter, and said it had "strong interest for prospective buyers" for those two assets.

International Travel by Congress: Legislation, Background, and Potential Policy Options
R. Eric Petersen, Coordinator
Specialist in American National Government
Terrence L. Lisbeth
Reference Assistant
Mabel Gracias
Reference Assistant
International travel by Members of Congress and their staff is an issue of long-standing interest among some members of the public, media outlets, and Members. Questions regarding the purposes and destinations of international travel by Congress frequently arise, as do questions about the ability to track the costs and benefits of such travel. There is no single source that identifies all international travel undertaken by the House or Senate, and no means to identify the number of trips taken, destinations visited, travelers, total costs, or costs paid for by funds appropriated to government entities other than Congress. This report provides information and analysis on the use of foreign currency expended in support of congressional travel to international destinations that is paid for with appropriated funds and authorized by the House or Senate; on measures related to international travel by Congress introduced in the 111th and 112th Congresses; and on potential options for Congress related to international travel by Members and staff. This report does not provide data on travel costs borne by executive agencies that support congressional travel, as those data are not publicly available.
Under current law, the use of foreign currency in conjunction with international travel by Congress must be disclosed. Those data were tabulated, and suggest that the number of disclosures filed in both chambers and expenditures have grown since 1993, but not in a consistent manner suggesting a readily identifiable pattern of activity. It cannot be determined from available data whether the increase is attributable to increased travel or use of foreign currency, decreased utilization of privately sponsored travel, or change in the manner in which the House or Senate document their use of foreign currency through the disclosure process.
In the 112th Congress, legislation has been introduced to study and change the manner in which such travel is authorized, funded, and disclosed. Measures include H.R. 2340, introduced by Representative Mike Quigley; H.R. 638 and H.R. 882, introduced by Representative Timothy V. Johnson; and S. 429, introduced by Senator Claire McCaskill.

Recently, a fellow video dude emailed me with a question about YouTube.
"If a YouTube video is embedded on a website, but it's set to autoplay, will those views count as a hit?"
This is a great question, because you want your hits (read: views) to be recorded, no matter where the video is posted. If a video on your site is getting a lot of love, you really want that to show. But alas, the answer is probably not what you want to hear. While an embedded Youtube video does add to the hit count (once 5 seconds of the video are viewed, as far as I know), a video on autoplay does NOT. What counts is that the play button is hit.
Note, though, that you have your channel set to play one video after another on Youtube, those are counted as views. It's when they're embedded on auto play that the views are not counted.
So, I guess you have to weigh the advantages; autoplay gets your video WATCHED, but making viewers hit a play button actually gets you a view count.

Hi there; > Auntie Beans wrote: > > No, no, and no. PWD is for CUB SCOUTS. if you are a Boys Socut, you > >are not a Cub Scout anymore. Agreed, Adults and Boy Scouts have other fish to fry and should not compete with Cub Scouts...those older folks have more delicate egos and when bested by energetic little guys who don't waste time being "cool" the damage can be savage. 'round the campfire down this way talk is that Webelos Scouts aren't allowed to compete at camp-o-rees anymore 'cause of the embarrassment caused by dens consistently putting a large whuppin' on patrols in all the basic Scouting skills. But then, that is just talk. Somebody better get word to Lost Pines Reservation. Last summer camp they held a wildly successful Pinewood Derby (optional) and there was not a Cub Scout in sight. Boy Scouts got their kits, made their cars and raced them, with the top three finalists recognized at the campfire just before the OA tapout. While the roster of participants leaned more toward Tenderfoot than Life, they had fun. It may be that they had a better time because there were not many adults to get in their way of building their cars. True, there should not be any breaking of regs. just so Dad can get one more design "built" by sonny boy. Boy Scouts and adults should not be in competition with Cub Scouts, but there are ways to include everybody in the fun. In our Pack, the boys race against Ms. Dori (DL) and some of the other Boy Scouts and leaders (me too!) after their races are run and the awards handed out. These races are just for fun and help wind things down after the main event. The boys in the Troop wish that they could participate...I think I'll invite them this year. Hmmmm.

What neighborhoods in San Diego are good for eating out?
Old Town San Diego boasts the best and greatest variety of SD eats. With a wide variety of cuisines including Mexican, Italian, Japanese, Creole, Peruvian and regional California fare, there is something in Old Town to suit every appetite and budget.
Jack and Giulio's Italian Restaurant features some of the best homemade pastas, veal dishes, and seafood specialties in the city. Del Mar is another San Diego foodie hotspot with picturesque ocean views and delicious, diverse cuisine. Or pick up a tasty fish taco from Brigantine, or enjoy some world-class prime rib at Bully's, both located in Del Mar. -
My grandson is stationed in San Diego, Ca. 92108, he will be shispped out for seven months, but after that I would like to find a hotel/apartment type place to stay for awhile.
We have over 700 apartments in San Diego to choose from. We'd guess that he'd want to be near the beach and recommend Ocean, Mission or Pacific Beach neighborhoods.

Singer Morrissey says no to Kimmel, 'Duck Dynasty'
LOS ANGELES (AP) - The TV series "Duck Dynasty" is coming between Morrissey and Jimmy Kimmel.
The singer and animal rights activist says he canceled his appearance Tuesday on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" because "Duck Dynasty" cast members will be on the talk show.
Morrissey says he can't perform on a show with what he called people who "amount to animal serial killers."
A&E's "Duck Dynasty" reality show follows a Louisiana family with a business selling duck calls and decoys.
A&E did not immediately respond to requests for comment from it and the Robertson family.
A person familiar with the Kimmel show's plans confirmed that Morrissey was to appear. The person lacked authority to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
The person says Morrissey's performance will be rescheduled.
ABC says the Churchill band will perform Tuesday on Kimmel's show but declined comment on the switch.

I'm afraid this movie might not be your cup of tea.
Thank you and enjoy:)
Daily 2nd place and front page:-o Thanks one hell of a bunch!!
Since no one else...
has anything intellegent to say here I am again! I have to say normally stuff that is classified as "surreal" fails to get my attention, the fun loving, easy going, guy that I am, howver, this movie was very, very well done. The animation was smooth and defined (if not stylized) and the music worked very well along the sombre vein of the flash itself. Yes the content was strange but that is what symbolism is all about, it is up to you (the veiwer) to interpret the content, if you attempt to guess at what he (FoxCato) means behind it the vast, VAST, majority of you will be stumped because you can't fathom anything on a level with this. Forgive me, back to the reveiw. I think that you did an excellent job in all aspects of flash animation and I have rewarded you accordingly. 5/5 10/10, keep it up, ill keep my eyes out for you.
PS: To those of you who do write insightful and meaningful reveiws, I tip my hat to you, to those of you who think about as much as a log rolling down a hill I insist that you wipe yourself off the face of the earth because I am so sick of your idiocy.
PSS: Yes I am angry, there are way to many morons in this world today and I am sick of seeing the majority of them writing useless and/or retarded reveiws, but then I keep coming back don't I? Guess I may as well suck up my bitterness and move on.
Thank you:)
It's always a joy to read intelligent reviews:)
Not bad
I didn't really understood it, but the animation was good. A little dark for my taste.
i think i see the light now
hey,that was awesome...but its sad she is like living alone....but still awesome...can you send me more videos like that???
this was an awesome video clip, although you might have been able to draw the little girl better

Guild Wars: Factions (PC) ... battle set forth in Guild Wars, the ground-breaking online role-playing game that took the gaming world by storm in 2005 with its fantastic design, depth of play, and no-subscription-fee model. Guild Wars Factions opens another gateway into the Guild Wars universe, allowing new players to join the community of more than one million gamers already playing Guild Wars and providing veterans with a new world of conflict, combat and thrilling adventure in the mysterious realm of Cantha. As the saga continues, the factions of the empire battle for the realm; players will be able to pledge their allegiance to one of these factions and by their actions determine who the winner will be. While Guild Wars Factions is a standalone product that does not require the Guild Wars to play, gamers with Guild Wars accounts who purchase Factions will be able to play in the both campaigns with their existing characters.

Guild Wars: Factions - the first expansion pack of the series. Expansion pack probably isn't the right word - you don't need the first game (Prophecies) to be able to play this one. It works as a stand-alone package. Factions introduces 2 new professions to the game: Assassin: Dual blade wielding 'ninja' type character. Shadowstep to your enemies and strike them down in a matter of seconds. A quick, slippery character who is able to get in and out of a tricky situation in a flash. Ritualist: Control the spirit realm - summon spirits to be your aid. The Ritualists thrives on spirit summoning, a wall of blue 'floating' ... Read the complete review

Guild Wars to many is considered the poor mans World of Warcraft as there are no monthly fees attached and it is a smaller game in many respects. The game combines the action RPG genre with co-operative and competitive gaming. Guild Wars Factions can both be used as a standalone game or an expansion to the main Guild Wars game. It takes all of gameplay and features the first game presented and throws it into a vibrant and bleak Oriental kingdom, mixing various folklore and eastern culture to create a hellish and yet beautiful landscape for the player to explore. The game expands on the ability to pursue a solo game as well as the co-operative and ... Read the complete review

Guild Wars Factions is the first expansion pack for the original Guild Wars.

This Entry is about (Issues)
Elevator Pitch: Help us pitch this solution! Provide an explanation within 3-4 short sentences. Share a concise summary. This will be the first introductory text about your solution that viewers will see.
WDL is a virtual firm providing digital services to clients, proudly owned and powered by Pakistani women. It is working for economic development of the country by mobilizing a vast dormant workforce which is either discouraged from working outside or has trouble finding work opportunities.
Problem: What problem is this solution trying to solve? Describe the specific context within which this solution operates.
There is a huge dormant workforce comprising of educated, skilled women who for various reasons cannot work outside their homes. Women make up 50% of Pakistan's population and 59% of them between the age of 18 and 27 are educated. Girls in remote areas are given education by NGOs but they don't have work opportunities and hence not enough incentive to study.
Solution: What is the proposed solution? Be specific!
WDL's focus is on:
-women in rural areas without the necessary infrastructure or training to do digital tasks
2- Women in urban areas discouraged from working outside or too busy with family lives to have full time careers
The first tier works out of IT Centers in their villages on data entry and data conversion tasks. These women are trained by WDL and partnering organizations. These NGOs or Not-For-Profits have a long history of working with these communities making it easier to persuade male members to allow women to work out of the IT Centers operated by them.
Second tier joins WDL's online portal where they can work on advance tasks like wordpress, writing, graphic designing etc for which they are screened and tested by WDL.
Example: Walk us through a specific example of how this solution makes a difference; include its primary activities.
We connect with these women through NFP organizations working on the ground for long years with these communities and have formed a strong trust among them helping in persuading men to allow their women to come work at the IT Centers also built and managed by the partner organizations. After carefully screening, testing and training them we put them on our portal. Their skills are marketed to clients who post tasks to our portal.
We have tested the model without the portal in the remote northern areas of Pakistan through a local NFP. We were able to provide work worth Rs. 8000 ($80) a month to 6 women. In a town of roughly 20,000 people they are reduced to tilling their lands. Simple work at $3/hr can be life-changing for them.
Impact: What is the impact of the work to date?
We have worked with several Pakistani women over the last few years belonging to both rural and urban areas. They have worked on tasks for US-based clients doing things like data entry, data conversion, content writing, graphic designing, social media management and SEO. We ran a pilot project in Karimabad, Hunza. With limited work we were able to employ 6 women full time for a month. That's when the impact of this idea really hit us. Now we are doing capacity building with our partner and have trained about 200 people in last 2 months. The training will run for another 4 months. 50% of the trainees are women who will then be connected to work through us. The same pilot program will be expanded to other areas of Pakistan. By providing not only training but also work opportunities from their homes or villages we give an incentive to people to send girls to school.
Barriers: What barriers might hinder the success of your project and how do you plan to overcome them?
Living in Pakistan, the first thing to keep in mind is the law and order situation. Frequent strikes and shut downs cause a lot of problem for businesses. Fortunately, WDL is a team of women working from home. This helps in ensuring the 24/7/365 operations that we aim for. Notice for new tasks are sent at the backend to workers with relevant skills who then bid on it – tasks are then awarded based on response-time, previous feedback, and amount quoted. Two women are chosen for the task – if the first one does not activate the task within 30 minutes of being awarded at the backend by going through the right process and starts working then the second worker take over by default. This ensures if there is a problem such as power-failure there is always someone else there to do the job.
Also, we have a project where we collaborate with IT Centers run by local institutions and bring in local women to do basic data entry tasks. Since these IT Centers are based in areas where law and order situation hardly ever gets out of hand, we are able to deal with this problem. Similarly, the IT Centers have power backups such as generators and UPS devices. Through funding we plan to equip these centers with laptops to cut back on energy consumption.
Some women are not only discouraged form working outside their homes but from working at all. Through personal stories from women who have worked with WDL, we are able to break through that barrier and build a trusting relationship. The founder being personally from a highly conservative family, a mother and a working woman is someone that these women and their families can relate to at many levels.
Full Impact Potential: What are the main spread strategies moving forward? (Please consider geographic spread, policy reform, and independent replication/adoption of the idea or other mechanisms.)
This is a tried and tested model that can be replicated anywhere in the world. We receive expression of interest from men and women from countries like Bangladesh and India but also from the US to work as service providers. We are running a 6 month online internship program for Pakistan only. Once tested the idea is to open it up to people anywhere that might be interested in capacity building, polishing their skills,building portfolio and learning how to work with an International clientele.
Through funding we want to take the mission to government level so it may be replicated at a large scale throughout the country in IDP camps, relatively safe tribal areas, and to other places that we lack resources to reach.
We are working with Technovation Challenge (http://iridescentlearning.org/programs/technovation-challenge/) to generate interest among school girls in coding and business. For this again, after running in beta, we plan to introduce to our government to make it a large scale activity for both boys and girls.
Marketplace: Who else is addressing the problem outlined here and how does the proposed solution differ from these approaches?
Major competitors are portals like oDesk, Elance and Freelancer since they not only take the clients but also attract a lot of the workforce that would rather work with an established system than trust in a new one. India and Philippines are big competitors.
Most freelancers & companies offer niche services e.g. website-related work, administrative tasks, writing or data entry. At WDL the goal is to provide all these services under 1 umbrella. It won't be hit & miss as all workers will be screened and matched by us. Also being a social enterprise gives that extra gratification.
Sustainability Plan: What is this solution's plan to ensure financial sustainability?
We are talking with several NGOs and NFPs that have a well-established presence in areas we are trying to reach. They also have necessary infrastructure in buildings and electric supply, computer labs and Internet. We require about $50,000 in startup cost to acquire office space and set it up,hire fulltime IT,finance,marketing professionals,travel inside the country for training and sales,legal firm.
Founding Story: Share a story about the "Aha!" moment that led the founder to get started and/or to see the potential for this to succeed.
When I had my 2nd child I had to leave my teaching job. It wasn't possible for me to work fulltime with an infant. I had heard of people working online as "content writers" so I searched on Google. That was the beginning of a new life for me. Working online from home with clients from around the world on portal such as oDesk was very exciting. It was then I heard about the Picth Night Competition arranged by Women 2.0. and I entered idea for an all-female remote team of Pakistani service providers which received great feedback. There has been no looking back.
Partnerships: Tell us about your partnerships.
We have partnered with Karakoram Development Organization (KADO), a NFP working in remote northern areas of Pakistan. We are helping them with capacity building as well as providing work to trained service providers.
We are also partners with Think Global Initiative (TGI), a 501(c)(3) NFP in the US working with women entrepreneurs. We are advisors to TGI as well as mentors to the business women and provide digital assistance to the trainees.
We are also partners with UAE-based Consult and Coach for a Cause, a social enterprise helping social enterprises in the MENA region achieve maximum community impact.

You don't pay for tutoring unless you find a good fit!
I am a new graduate from USC's MPW program. I have always been interested in teaching. I got my start during my undergraduate studies at CSULB, where I offered private tutoring to several students of local public schools. I took on a few students as a private tutor at first, helping them write both academic essays and creative pieces. After graduating, and experiencing a number of small successes, I had the opportunity to try my hand at full-time teaching. I traveled to Wakayama, Japan, and taught for seven months at a small language arts college. There, I taught a group of eight students writing, literature, TOEFL, TOEIC, conversation, and debate. It was a defining experience for me, and I knew I had made the right decision in my academic focus. Since I returned to Los Angeles, I have been tutoring sparingly and consulting one-on-one with students at USC's Writing Center, helping students become better essay writers. This was a great experience for me, and it included not only working with regular students on an individual basis, but also leading weekly workshops on Grammar. I enjoy teaching very much, and I know without a doubt it is something I am capable of doing well. I am eager to get back into the field on a more regular basis, and I believe I can excel as a tutor.

Not to be offensive, but can you name the position that is head of state in more than 2 or 3 European countries ? I'm sure most Americans don't know that Sweden has a Royal Family. North Americans, and I include Canadians in this (although to a somewhat lesser degree) are painfully unaware of most of the world. I admit that I can only name the positions for maybe half a dozen european companies, my relatives frequently mock my ignorance. -t |

you try running HDL Dumb instead of HDL Dump?
I finally got hdl_dumb 0.8.6 to work right! Yeah! It still gives the error message of "No Device detected" when starting from PC even though I have hdl_svr(0.8.5) started on the PS2 with correct settings. However, once hdl_dumb is started I can hit "Attach" from the window & it works.
I didn't have any problems with this stuff on the old XP machine. Oh well, at least I got it working for now. I still like hdl_dump better because that's what I was using on the XP rig but I'll stick with hdl_dumb because I got it to work finally on this Vista machine. Thanks guys!
I get the "No Device detected" error on my xp machine. i ignore it and go on with transfers.
But it works, that's what matters
Hi !
have you tryed analcobra´s Java-based HDLdump/b tool ?
because of based up on java it should work on all linux / windows / mac?! maschines with correct installed java...
Link: http://www.modcontrol.com/downloads,detail,922.html
it has language support for different languages, also english.
Yeah! IT WORKS & that's what I want so no biggy. However, my old XP machine never gave me any errors or problems with hdl_dump period. I only sparingly used hdl_dumb back a good while ago. I had been using hdl_dump to transfer games over the network for quite some time & hadn't used hdl_dumb in at least a couple years. I'm just happy to get it working. Thanks!
ok I'm new to this and i've been lookin for this info for a while so bear with me please. i'm kind of confused.i have fat ps2 with a hard drive in it. With your method, do i need to connect my hard drive to my pc? also are these the only programs i need.

No, you need to connect the PS2 via the Network Adapter to the PC via an Ethernet connection. You'll need a RJ45 (ethernet) cable to do this.

The kiteboarding capital of Cabarete, in the Dominican Republic, offers great vibes to those of visit and enjoy its winds. There are great kitesurfing spots, kite shops, tasty gastronomy and stunning weather.
Ideas come easily in relaxed environments. That is why Jacob Rachniowski, video producer and cameraman, decided to offer everyone a different view of the kiteboarding world. "After a lingerie party at Millennium Resort, in the kite town of Cabarete, Dominican Republic, a few friends and I decided that making a kiteboarding video with that theme would be a good idea", tells Rachniowski. The result is funny and creative. Two beautiful kiteboarding girls get all the gear ready and luxurious cocktails served from a couple of boys, before hitting the water for a show of wind riding. Watch the sexy kiteboarding girls in pink lingerie, enjoying life. |

More quote details and news » the answer was to help produce a digital sitcom.
The 40-episode series, called "Sufei's Diary," weaves product placements for Estée Lauder's Clinique brand cosmetics and other products into plotlines about a college student in Shanghai named Sufei. The online series has been a hit in China, home to the world's largest population of Internet users and one of the fastest-growing markets for Web ads.
"Sufei's Diary" is a Chinese twist on "Sofia's Diary," a Web series that originated in Portugal in 2003 and was later adapted to plug products in places including Brazil and Britain. But the Chinese version is more overtly commercial and has more interactive elements.
The digital sitcom 'Sufei's Diary' incorporates Estée Lauder's Clinique cosmetics into plotlines about a college student in Shanghai. Sony Pictures Television International
Sony Pictures Television International
Sony Pictures Television International, which owns the "Sofia's Diary" franchise, produces the show and marketed it to Estée Lauder, whose Clinique brand targets women in their 20s and 30s. At one point in the series, Sufei goes to the Clinique beauty counter. At other junctures, she is seen using a Sony Vaio computer and a Cybershot camera, and she takes part in a competition run by Chinese job-search Web site 51job.com, another sponsor.
Viewers have a hand in the plot. They vote via blog posts and text messages on the resolutions to challenges Sufei faces: Should she watch an awards show or study? Sing karaoke with friends or go on a date with an attractive guy? (The audience picked karaoke.)
Since its debut in December, "Sufei's Diary" has attracted more than 20 million views on major Chinese Web sites Sina and Youku, and on Cernet.com, a Chinese university broadband network. The show's format "actively encourages people's creativity -- everyone can be the playwright or director," says Dou Wanru, executive director at Sina's Entertainment Channel.
Mark Heap, managing director at Omnicom Media Group OMC -0.59% Omnicom Group Inc.

More quote details and news » ad agency PHD, which manages the Estée Lauder account, estimates that the show averages about 453,000 views an episode, dwarfing the 50,000 views an episode attained by Britain's version, "Sophia's Diary."
Those numbers reflect that young people here spend lots of time on the Internet and relatively little watching TV. According to Forrester Research Inc., young adults in metropolitan China spend 16 hours a week using the Internet for personal purposes, compared with 11 hours watching TV.
Part of the reason is that the Chinese government's control of TV makes for stodgy fare like the didactic newscasts on state broadcaster China Central Television. "The traditional TV demographic is a 45-plus female, watching historical drama series," says Mary Chan, Sony Pictures Television's vice president of production, who is working to line up sponsors for the show's second season.
Estée Lauder hasn't signed on as a second-season sponsor, but it is pleased with the results of its first Web series, says Mr. Heap. He says China's less-regulated Internet space offers a relatively cheap opportunity for advertisers to experiment. To replicate a "Sufei's Diary" on TV, sponsors would probably have to spend at least five times as much, he says.
In response to a questionnaire posted on Sufei's Web site, more than half of the 1,500 respondents said they were more likely to consider buying Clinique products than they had been three months earlier. Almost half those potential customers were male, a market the brand doesn't typically reach through magazine ads.
"Sufei's Diary" demonstrates how swiftly online advertising is changing here. It "will change so drastically that in my view, brands in three to five years will no longer be using banner ads on portals," says Magdalena Wszelaki, regional vice president at WPP-owned interactive-marketing firm Agenda.
Mr. Heap says advertisers were drawn to "Sufei's Diary" because the show allowed them a freer hand in shaping plotlines.
Unlike the British series, in which Sophia is a middle-class teenager in high school, Sufei comes from an affluent family, because Estée Lauder wanted to tap an older, more upscale demographic.

MUMBAI: BEST general manager Om Prakash Gupta on Wednesday assured Mumbaikars that power supply would be restored at the earliest in areas which faced power cuts during the monsoon.
At the committee meeting, Congress member Ravi Raja said that during the first rains last weekend, several pockets in the island city faced power cuts. "Electricity was not restored for two to three hours. When citizens in Sion called the fault repair control room, the line was constantly busy," Raja said. BEST committee chairperson Sunil Shinde said that Chinchpokli residents also faced similar problems.

The NHL's trade deadline is Wednesday, April 3. Following is a player that may be moved. For more "Trade Bait," click here.
Thursday in Nashville, Steve Sullivan will play his 1,000th regular-season game in the NHL.
It's been quite the career for the diminutive center, now 38 years old, who was a long shot to make it in the world's best league.
In 1994, Sullivan was drafted 233rd overall by the Devils. Around two decades later — and throw in some serious back issues along the way — he's still at it.
Sullivan's production has fallen to just 12 points in 30 games this season, his first with the Coyotes. But with a number of teams in the market for a center, it's possibly he could be on the move prior to next week's deadline.
Sullivan is a pending unrestricted free agent on a one-year, $2.6 million contract.
Will Phoenix be a seller at the deadline?
Well, the Coyotes lost again last night, blowing a late lead to the Wild and falling 4-3 in overtime. Phoenix now sits 13th in the Western Conference, five points back of a playoff spot, with only 15 games remaining.
According to Sports Club Stats, the Coyotes have a 5.5% chance of making the playoffs.
So to answer the question: yes, they'll probably be sellers.

The animation probably makes no sense unless you've played the game. Iron Flesh is a Pyromancy spell that.. Makes you turn into iron. Quite useful, made the game much easier. Took about 2 days to animate.
It's been over 2 years since I made my last animation, this was more of a practice animation to get me back into things. And the song used in the second part is Rama Lama Ding Dong by The Edsels!
Edit: Oh? I got a Daily 2nd Place trophy! Silver! YES.
Cant stop watching, LOOL, so awesome, trolol
Thank you :)
Haha I was not expecting that. I wish my hours spent on this game were as carefree as this video and not me banging my head against the wall.
Umm.. You just summed up my 70+ hours of game play in less than 2 minutes! lol
29 seconds to be exact!
I havent been able to pass the part with the dragon in the end of the brigde. But when i find this guy il play this song THE WHOLE GAME. But good animation dude keep it up.
There should be a way around him.. :) Or.. Under the bridge..
