La Flèche-Wallonne sportive
19th April 2011
After the Dutch cycle-fest last Saturday at Valkenburg, the low-key Flèche sportive seemed almost like a club run. A couple of flags helped us find the sports hall in a residential suburb of Andenne. For a mere five euros, we signed up with several hundred others. The organisation was perfect, enthusiastic and caring. I was joined by Rapha Mobile Cycle Club's roving supremos Ben and Anton and myself rode out under clear blue skies and soon hitched ourselves to a tidy group of local riders. There was a bit of Flemish banter going on, too, but most of the riders were wearing local club jerseys which gave the ride a distinctively friendly feel.
I used to think, like many, that the Flèche was only about the Muur. The race always looks that way, the podium places only vaguely predictable over the last 300 metres of the race. Gradients are invisible on TV. Ride the route, from where it crosses south of the Meuse river, and you will understand just how strong those riders are when they hit the Muur for the last time. By the time we hit it – for our first and only time – our legs were already lacerated.
We had, naturally, chosen the longer of two signposted routes, 145 kilometres along quiet rural roads, past numerous chateaux and 'chateaux-fermes': clearly many of the farmers round here have had abundant harvests down the generations. In the first part of the ride the odd, short nature of the climb interrupted our cyclo-tourism. But as Ben commented at the first feed, "We've been chugging along, 'cos it's never actually been flat!" I check my Garmin and see that he's right, an average of just over 30kph so far is high enough. The next 50-kilometre section of the ride dishes out more of the same, and I do mean more. The Flèche is the perfect link between the Amstel and Liege. From the short, berg-type climbs of the Dutch Limbourg region to the very real Ardennes climbs such as the Rosier and the Roche aux Faucons (not forgetting the vicious Redoute), the Flèche climbs of the Condroz region sit neatly between the two. Some can be ridden in the big ring, even by us mortals. It proves a tough course but only because we tend to ride these climbs fast (for us, that is). We can't help it and the sheer number of them gives our route just under 2,000 metres of climbing, just half of Liege's 'up'. And, naturally, much of that is in the last stages of the race route.
On the Cote d'Ereffe, we became part of a particularly serious group of riders. It's the penultimate climb in the pro race loop between the second and third time up the Muur and it was then that I got a tap on the shoulder from my local bike shop owner. He rode up smoothly beside me on his Project One Trek, Di2 'n all. I held him in line all the way up the climb while up the road Ben left the whole group in his wake. At least Ben made me feel faster, if only because I was wearing the same Rapha jersey. Said local bike shop owner was impressed. At the top of this deceptively difficult three-kilometre climb we quickly reformed as we prepared for the fast run-in to Huy, the final battle.
Gel tops flew out of mouths as riders chewed nervously on the energy they would need for the Muur. I'd loved to have joined them but although I had a gel somewhere in a back pocket, as we flew down towards the sharp hairpin before joining the main road, there was no way one of my hands was leaving the bars. As our determined dozen or so riders arrived in Huy, the traffic thought best to let us through. We swung a fast right at the roundabout and got ready.
Still riding beside me, my bike shop man confessed he "was dead". In an attempt to show solidarity I replied, "me too." Once we forked right, to where the proper Muur climb starts, every man was left to fight his own battle. To try and keep on a stronger wheel is nigh impossible; everyone has to climb at their max. To envisage putting on a 'spurt' is pure illusion. I had told Ben to wait until the S-bend and then really go, which was probably a bit cruel. He had to just "volle-gas" from the start and then hang on in there until the top. He pulled it off, too. Respect. I pushed my lungs and legs to their own limits, maybe a bit beyond, because I knew I had a "dead man" breathing down my back and there was no way he was going to get to the top first. At the top, bike shop man, Di2 'n all, was beaten. That was all that mattered to me. We shook hands and promised a rematch soon.
Having pushed hard on a climb that is so hard even without trying to beat someone else, I was almost as breathless watching Philippe Gilbert power away from his own "dead men" in the pro race. If he could only go on and win in Liege it would make him the first Belgian to do the triple of Ardennes classics. It would be an emotional moment, probably enough to bring tears to my eyes. But I won't be the only one.

These are the adult swim goggles that provide superior suction and leak resistance. In real-world usage tests conducted by The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute, a panel of experienced swimmers lauded these swim goggles for creating a "complete watertight seal" and "not allowing any leakage after 10 laps," unlike lesser models that "began to leak after only two laps." The goggles fit the contours of your face comfortably and a button quickly loosens or tightens the strap for fast, easy adjustments. The tinted polycarbonate lenses block UV rays and filter 100% of blue light to mitigate distortion and improve depth perception and contrast. Intended for use by adults. 7 1/4" W x 1 3/4" H. (2 1/2 oz.)
Lifetime Guarantee
The Leak Resistant Swim Goggles come with The Hammacher Schlemmer Lifetime Guarantee at no additional charge. If this product ever disappoints you, for any reason, you may return you Hammacher Schlemmer purchase for exchange, credit, or refund.Should you have any questions, we are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The SPEAKER announced the special order, viz.: The consideration of the bill [H. R. 420] licensing persons carrying on the business of druggist and apothecary to deal in spirituous, malt and vinous liquors, prescribing penalties, etc., which was read the second time.
Mr. COLE moved to amend the bill by striking out all of Sections 2 and 3, Section 1 being: "Every person carrying on the business of drugstore and apothecary shall pay to the Treasurer of the County $5 as a license for one year, etc., which sum shall be paid into the school fund." Section 2 being: "Upon the presentation of such receipt to the Auditor of the County he shall execute to the person a certificate stating to him the delivery to him of the receipt, and that such person is licensed to carry on the business for one year from date of the receipt."
Mr. SCHWEITZER was of the opinion that druggists had no more right to sell whisky than dry goods stores.
Mr. FRAZER--I move that this bill be referred back to the Committee on Temperance for amendments so it will pass. It will never pass this way.
The amendment was withdrawn and the motion to refer was agreed to.

Matt Borland Poll
Could they be thinking they honestly think the two combo'd back together can bring back the magic? It doesnt normally happen in the past, when other combos tried the comeback.
With Ryan only having a one year contract, maybe they arent to confident in bringing Ryan back after 2013 so why go spend money on a new CC for him, using Matt as a Bandaid for a year. Will they use Ryan as a dead duck next year.
Or maybe they are filling in the year with Matt because I remember Zippy saying they were waiting to talk to others under contract. Maybe they cant get the CC they want until 2014.

Maine Lobster
Signature Events
What is a Maine Lobster Roll? Go in search of the perfect Maine Lobster Roll!
Steamed, broiled, poached, grilled, stuffed, baked, chowder or bisque… in Maine, you can have your lobster just about any way you can imagine, but perhaps the most popular is in a roll. While opinions vary on what makes the perfect Maine lobster roll, purists prefer fresh chunks of lobster meat stuffed in a grilled, split-top hot dog roll, no mayo or dressing, but perhaps with a light drizzle of melted butter. This down home, unpretentious delicacy can be found throughout the state in restaurants, lobster shacks, hometown diners and sandwich shops.
For a truly unique Maine experience, check the annual schedule and plan your next trip to Maine.
Lobster is practically synonymous with Maine — no visit to Vacationland is complete without the experience of eating a fresh Maine lobster (or two)! You can build an entire trip celebrating this delicious crustacean and its integral part in Maine culture.
Enjoy lobster on a simple roll from a shack or have it expertly prepared by one of Maine's award-winning chefs, take in a lobster boat race or even go lobstering and catch your very own lobster with a Maine lobsterman.
Attend one of our many festivals that pay tribute to the great Maine lobster. If you come in December, Santa arrives in many coastal towns by lobster boat! Many of Maine's great hotels and B&Bs overlook harbors and bays where you can wake up to see the lobstermen heading out for the day. From the lobster Eggs Benedict to your butter poached lobster in the evening — make your next trip to Maine all about lobster!
The Maine Beaches
Quintessential beach communities line the white sand beaches along Maine's southern coast. Lighthouses dot the shore; luxury resorts and inns share stunning views with beachfront cottages and lobster shacks. Enjoy abundant recreation, from swimming, surfing and sailing, to kayaking, hiking, biking and golf. Bird watchers, art lovers and seafood connoisseurs find many reasons to return, year after year.
Greater Portland & Casco Bay
Located on Casco Bay, Portland is the gateway to the region's many islands and surrounding coastal communities.

Scenic bays, craggy peninsulas and sparkling offshore islands surround Midcoast Maine's fishing villages, seaside resorts and bustling harbor towns. This region is rich with Maine's maritime past and the vibrant local arts scene and there are endless options for adventure ? from kayaking to hiking, biking and golf, but be sure to leave time to enjoy freshly caught seafood.

Cigars, Accessories, Pipe Tobacco from Acid, Lighters, 100% Dominican
Acid 1400CC Tubos 18ct Box
Action Little Cigars Full ...
Action Little Cigars Full 200ct I tried BnBTobbacoÕs Action Little Cigars Full Flavor and they were not bad at all. The flavor on these was supposed to be full, but I usually prefer my cigars to be a little stronger. Either way, the flavor was good and the price was even better. IÕll definitely try them again.
Acid Atom (Maduro) 24ct Box
My friend got me hooked ...
My friend got me hooked on this brand a few years ago. I love the deep flavor. The 24 count box is one of the best deals if you know you like this kind. BnB was very easy to work with. They delivered my package in a reasonable amount of time and a great price; they have gained a customer for life.
Acid Blondie Belicoso 24ct Box
I have never been a cigar ...
I have never been a cigar smoker but I bought a box of these for my brother-in-law for his birthday. As it turned out, he ended up handing them out when his son was born in January. We were all in his man-cave and, not wanting to be the only one not smoking, I lit mine up and smoked with the guys. I was truly amazed at how much I enjoyed this cigar. As a cigarette smoker, I expected perhaps a harsher smoking experience from a cigar. This one was very smooth and extremely enjoyable. I don't know if it was the experience, the ambiance, or the company, but I really enjoyed it. In fact, I ended up ordering a whole box for myself, the service was great, just like the first time.
100% Dominican 6x60 25ct BDL
Good smoke for the price
These are a good daily smoke. Not strong but satisfying. They burn faster than a tighter rolled cigars but at this size there's plenty to them.
100% Dominican Churchill 25ct BDL
I've already placed my SECOND order.
Very glad to find a cigar that is affordable and great taste.
4 Aces Mellow Pipe 6oz Bag
mild, tasty
It's maybe a little to mellow for some,... the nic hit isn't full on, but It's a great smoke, Like the flavor...the tobacco is in excelent quality.
Acid Blondie Belicoso Bundle
Fantastic Flavored Cigar
The Blue line of Drew Estates is my favorite. It has a flavor and aroma that cannot be beat. However, the tobacco flavor does come through as well. It is my go-to cigar when I want a flavored cigar.
100% Dominican Figurado 25ct BDL
Surprised! great value good stogie.
Even though all the caps were peeling and the ends are all broken during delivery.... the cigars are a really nice smoke. Construction is adequate and consistent throughout the bundle. The wrappers need to be tighter but the binders were done well so it keeps each cigar together for the duration of each smoke. A small number have green areas on the wrapper; this indicates a QC problem at the source. The flavor is pleasantly mild and tropical with a hint of wonderful old leather bound books on the nose.
4 Aces Turkish Pipe Tobacco Pouches
good. but a little weak
so i usually use turkish in a MYO FF/menthol tube. and while its smoother in the menthol tube, (way way smooth,) a smokers best menthol, and gambler tube cut FF, and golden valley FF tubes. the gambler tubes are a little more bitter and zappy, while the golden harvest ones smooth it a small bit. the flavor is not completely consistent, and its not deep as i thought. mixed it with a full flavor, and cavendish tobaccos, and it helps the whole blend even out and helps the flavor last and transition between the full flavor, and the cavendish. its more of a mediator for blends than a great stand alone. going to try OHM for a solo smoke.
Acid Best of Sampler 5 Pack
Can't Go Wrong with the Sampler Pack
After smoking nothing but traditional hand-rolls and box-presseds, these infused cigars were a welcome breath of fresh air. This sampler pack covers all the bases, from a smooth maduro (the Atom) to a sweet and clovey short story (the Blondie). Each cigar lives up to its online description - the notes of peach cobbler in the Cold Infusion Tea are subtle and refreshing - and the aromas are just as delicious as the tobacco itself. Across the board, each cigar is well-constructed, easy to light, and burns evenly. The draw is not the easiest I've encountered, but certainly not too firm. Perfect for novice smokers, or more seasoned smokers who'd like to try something out-of-the-box. Highly recommended for female smokers, as well.

Broken Ankle or Ankle Sprain?
Medical Author:
Benjamin C. Wedro, MD, FACEP, FAAEM
Medical Editor:
Charles P. Davis, MD, PhD
The difference between doctors who look after mere mortals and those who look after elite athletes may have to do with how many tests they can order, regardless of the cost. And when X-ray and MRI reports lead the news, it makes it difficult for family doctors to explain why those tests aren't necessarily appropriate for them (or even the elite athlete).
Ankle sprains are common injuries and historically, patients expected that if they went to the ER or their doctor's office, they would have an X-ray taken to prove there were no broken bones. As it turns out, the vast majority of those ankle X-rays done were normal and, in retrospect, could be seen as expensive, wasteful, and posed another opportunity to expose a person to unneeded radiation. Ian Stiell and his colleagues in Ottawa, Canada completed a study that showed it was not useful to order all those tests, since less than 15% of those ankle X-rays were positive for a fracture. The results of the study also allowed Dr. Stiell to develop the Ottawa ankle rule guidelines. They give the doctor and the patient a starting point for the discussion about care and treatment for ankle injuries.

I, of course, had to make her a tailor made card. It was hard to live up to all that perfection, but I tried :)
I knew the venue with the old barn and that inspired the use of the fiercely hoarded Gmund woodgrain cardstock. The bridesmaids carried bouquets of yellow wild flowers and that's where the hero arts stamps came in. I added bits of gray in the border and leaves, but I was stumped with the turquoise. I knew I wanted something inn the middle of the flowers, but I didn't want to use bling, and buttons seem too informal. I decided on brads, but didn't have the right colors in all the different sizes I needed. My solution :) Spray paint those bad boys! I poked them into the bottom of a cardboard box, whipped out a can of spray paint in the appropriate color (I keep a small collection of spray paint in my favorite colors, cause you just never know when you might need it) and literally 2 minutes later I was done!

Worst. Episode. Ever.
Dom literally had half a word in the entire episode...screw Jungle Fury
Not bad in theory but poorly executed.
It was written so that it could be placed anywhere in the season, but because of that, it doesn't fit anywhere.
I liked it.
It as funny episode...
Pretty bad episode....
Im a very huge fan of JF but everything has a dislike too. I think this episode is surely good idea but It doesn't amazed me.. Its just like a rewind all over ...Just like a Post Examination... But actually I answered all the questions correctly lol..
How I wish I can go to Hawaii too
Well this episode dont have much huge influence in the JF plot but its quite funny because the Plan of Camille it as put the rangers inside of TV for the Dai Shi rule the World and it as too when Dai Shi have the ideia to use Whiger to go face Casey in the final scene of the episode of "One Last Second Change" because Dai Shi want to use Whiger to fight Casey.

The in-store experience gets up close and personal
Point of sale is moving away from passive marketing and promotions to engaging, two-way experiences that actively change shopping behavior. From the moment consumers enter a store to the point at which they make a purchase, new innovations enhance the variety, convenience, and personal service that motivate consumers to buy. Intel technology is driving this transformation.
Interactive point-of-sale technology is just one of the components of the Intel Connected Store model for better, more immersive retail experiences. To learn more, watch this Connected Store video, read about Intel's vision for retail, or explore developer resources for point-of-sale system design.
Computing intelligence throughout the store
Intel point-of-sale technology can take many forms. You'll find it driving stand-alone point-of-sale kiosks, attracting shoppers to engaging multimedia endcap displays, extending merchandising through virtual touch-screen walls, and simplifying checkout via networked transaction devices. Retailers are even incorporating it into LCD screens mounted on shopping carts.
What do all these point-of-sale systems have in common? Whether they work independently or in concert, they can all intelligently engage consumers with targeted messages and incentives right where they are most likely to buy: when they are already in the store.
Combine online convenience with physical engagement
As far as convenience goes, online shopping delivers the ultimate to the consumer. But what it lacks is immediate gratification. Networked point-of-sale brings online shopping convenience in store, and combines it with the satisfaction of enjoying a purchase the same day, knowing that it fits correctly, and that it can be returned easily. This creates memorable experiences that will keep customers coming back again and again.
Manage systems and messages remotely
Connecting point-of-sale systems over a network offers several advantages:
Targeting and personalization. Similar to web-based shopping, point-of-sale systems connected to a network can provide customer reviews, identify return shoppers, and record shopping histories. Going one step further, Intel® AIM Suite technology gives retailers the power to anonymously identify the characteristics of each passing shopper and dynamically adapt marketing messages accordingly.
Remote management. Connecting networks with Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT) allows retail administrators to manage all systems at once, reduce energy consumption, and take advantage of security and maintenance options such as system diagnosis.
Reduced energy and maintenance costs. Because systems can be managed remotely, retailers can turn off all POS systems overnight to increase energy savings. It also reduces the need for technicians to go on-site for system maintenance, lowering operational expenses for retailers.

I love this print and the frame was great. the only problem was the glass. I ordered the glare proof glass and it had a hazy white film on it. I have ordered other framed prints with the same glass and it was not the case. I had to go buy another piece of glass and am very happy now.

The Premier Collection passenger prefers to travel in style, with the knowledge that they are being well looked after and certain comforts will be met," said Mark Grundy, President.
Wendy Wu, founder and CEO added, "When we opened our office in New York, I quickly realized that the American market was unique. I knew right away that I wanted to begin offering a Premier Collection for that particular niche so prominent in the USA. I've put together the perfect blend of affordability and luxury, excursions and free time for American visitors to China."

What are the major differences between GPS, GLONASS, COMPASS and Galileo?
Some differences, which comes to my mind now: - they use slightly different frequencies (thus are (may be) incompatible, but EU and Russia are working now on making them compatible). Also chip manufactures announced they will produce single chip capable of receiving GPS/Galileo (maybe also GLONASS) - Galileo will offer 5 different services (open access navigation, commercial navigation, safety of life navigation, public regulated navigation, search and rescue) - Galileo should offer higher accuracy for every user (GPS has high accuracy signal restricted to military/government agencies) But as George said, they all works on the same physics and has the same problems to overcome. | ||||
GPS is older, more mature and have many more consumer products made for it. GLONASS and Galileo are still in the development phase, as what I know. But they are much newer and has higher accuracy. Galileo is not made mainly for military systems and are not controlled by a single country. | |||||
First of all: they all work according to the same principles. GNSS Systems are composed of a cloud of known position satellites (geostationary) and a receiver. Each satellite and receiver have an atomic clock on it's system. The receiver, when it's turned on, tries to locate as many satellites as possible. As each one is located, the receiver, sends out a radio signal on a very specific frequency and counts the number of computer clocks until the signal is received back. You know how fast the radio wave goes, and time. From it you can calculate distance. From time spent between send from receiver and signal coming back, the handheld estimates distance to that satellite. When you have 4 or more satellites receiving and sending you signals, the GNSS software is able to triangulate your position from theirs. That is why GNSS systems suffers way too much from atmosphere, buildings surrounding, weather, number of satellites available, etc. The GPS system, a few years ago had a "signal scrambler" that altered randomly the delivery of the satellite message, estimating your position with a few tens of meters in error. That was called SA (Selective Availability), but that was disabled (in 1995 if I'm not mistaken). The precision of a receiver is directly related to your earth models (ellipsoid/geoid/etc) and if your GNSS device can be post-processed. Precision GNSS devices have very specific geometries and they have accurate phase-centers, which help determine the actual location where the signal is being received. If it can be post-processed, you can get accurate measures of satellite orbits and a huge collection of points (or signals received and processed). From those, and a few minutes with a device steady in one position, one can enhance it's precision, by using that collection of points in a interval and achieve best positioning. These are complicated algorithms and most precision devices have specific softwares to process them. A normal GNSS device cannot be post-processed because the device does not store the collection of points, only shows you the current processed point (it's possible with some hacks) I'm not sure if all that applies to all GNSS systems, but the physics are the same for all of them. | |||||||||||||||||
GPS is the American satellite system. GLONASS and others are systems created by other countries. IRNSS: India Galileo: EU Compass: China GPS is the oldest and tested and true system. Others are in their infancy, or there wasn't enough funding to complete the system. | |||

Testing FAQ's
Families homeschooling under a Notice of Intent are required to evaluate the academic progress of their children in the odd grades beginning in the 3rd grade by using a nationally standardized test or by having an evaluation done by a qualified evaluator. Parents can administer these standardized tests on their own or have someone to do it for them.
Families homeschooling under the CHEC Independent School must fulfill the evaluation requirement at the end of every odd school year after a student reaches the 3rd grade.
Where do I find the test?
You can order a test from several different companies. Please click here to navigate to the list of companies who offer testing services.
The test or evaluation results are to be submitted to the school district that received the notice of intent or to an independent or parochial school within the state of Colorado that is willing to hold test scores. If the test or evaluation results are submitted to an independent or parochial school, the name of the school shall be provided to the school district that received the notice of intent.
The CHEC Independent School is able to hold test scores for those families who have filed a notice of intent and are looking for a place to file the tests. For a one-time fee of $25.00 we will create a file for your family and add test scores as you submit them to us. Please print and mail the Request Form, copy of test scores, and payment to CHEC Independent School, 10461 South Parker Rd., Parker, CO 80134.
Both the homeschool law and the CHEC Independent School policy is to require a nationally standardized test. The TCAP is specific only to students in Colorado which does not fulfill this requirement.

Standardized Tests
Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) – 4-year degree required by the administrator; is timed; gives detailed report of test results; HSLDA now interprets the core total from ITBS as satisfying Colorado law for a composite score, so the extra tests to get a "composite" score from ITBS are not deemed necessary. Click here for a sample of the Performance Profile you will receive after completing the test.
Stanford Achievement Test (SAT) – 4 year degree required by the administrator; is untimed; gives detailed report of test results. As of late 2012, qualified parents or relatives are allowed to administer the SAT to their own children without at least one other family being present for testing. (Please Note: this is not the SAT that high school students take for college admission. You can find information about the college admission SAT test below under High School Testing)
California Achievement Test (CAT) – No special requirements for the administrator; basic report of test results, online version available (When you see Catform, it is referring to a testing program, not a specific test). For more information on interpreting CAT results Click Here
Terra Nova Comprehensive Test of Basic Skills (CTBS) - the publisher of the CAT/5, with its 1991 norms, has released this new test that was last normed in 2005. There are no special requirements for the administrator.

The "Niantic" was a whaling ship used during the Gold Rush of the 1800s and then run aground to be used for storage and as a hotel in a place now known as San Francisco.
As the city grew and changed, the ship was built over and around many times, becoming part of the foundation of the city and now residing, at least in part, in the San Francisco Maritime Museum.
A group at Google has adopted that ship's name, with the goal of crafting apps that encourage users to explore the world around them and, in the process, discover such hidden gems.
The idea, according to John Hanke, vice president of product development for Niantic Labs, was to get people moving, exploring, and having fun during the normally stationary act of playing on their phones.
"The theme of the group was the things around you that just lie beneath the surface, the unseen world," Hanke said. "The information exists on the Internet, but these are probably things you don't notice in the real world. The information, although it is there, is often difficult to get to."
Niantic Labs has been working on two apps -- "Field Trip" and "Ingress."
"Field Trip" links 130 different information sources to your smartphone's GPS, resulting in alerts to interesting things currently around you.
The app, which is available for iOS and Android phones, has been out for about a year, but is now available for use with Google Glass as well.
The advantage of Glass, Hanke said, is that it lets users walk around, hands-free and experience things in a new way.
"The idea (with Google Glass integration) is that the information can get to you in a way that isn't disruptive with what you are doing," he said. "You can still interact with the people around you; you can glance up and see it; you can have it read to you. But you have that awareness of 'This is what that place is, this is what used to be here.' "
During a demonstration in Washington, the app alerted me to nearby restaurants in the Google Glass display. I could choose to ignore them or go deeper into the information without pulling out a phone or bothering the people around me.
In another example, the background and history on an unusual building popped up and could be read to me as I studied the building.
"You're not lost in your phone. You can get (the information) read in your ear. You now know that information and you can do with it whatever you want," Hanke said. "It's kind of like having a smart local (person) walking beside you telling you where everything is."
If "Field Trip" is meant to be a helpful app for a leisurely stroll, "Ingress" offers something else entirely: a competitive, worldwide game for the Android phone where the enemy could be the person next to you on any given street corner.
While encouraging fierce competition, "Ingress" has organically evolved during its beta run into an app that brings people together socially and creates connections between players beyond the game.
Recently, Google has been touring the world for an in-game event called Operation Cassandra. The goal of the game, according to the elaborate, sci-fi inspired story Niantic has crafted for "Ingress," is for groups representing the two warring factions -- the Enlightened and the Resistance -- to create virtual fields that blanket an area and control the people therein.
Virtual hot-spots, called "portals" in the game, appear at the GPS locations of real landmarks like public art, historic buildings, museums, local institutions and churches.
Players must be in the real-world location of these portals to "capture" them for their team.
Hanke said his original plan was to create an MMO (massively multiplayer online) game where people all over the world could play in their own time toward a common goal. But when people started gathering in cities to capture portals, he says, something amazing happened.
"Getting together in the real world, people are going out and playing for an hour -- or sometimes all night -- and then having beers or breakfast together," he said. "People are doing that; I never expected them to when I designed this game."
In "Ingress," there is always competition on a local level, as well as the occasional special event, with a specific, time-sensitive goal, that can draw dozens of players from both factions. Recently, Google has been hopping from city to city for major gatherings, though, drawing player numbers in the hundreds.
Sydney, Australia; New York, Chicago, Boston, Washington, and Cologne and Dusseldorf in Germany, have all been the sites of such events.
Daphne Domingo, one of the main organizers in Washington, said that while she isn't normally a competitive person, the social aspects of the game make it fun.
"You have so many different socio-economical backgrounds in the players and we've all become dearest friends," Domingo said. "You really can't do it alone. You have to work with other people and we've all become good friends, no matter what side you're on."
Lindsey Boyle, a tech researcher for the U.S. Department of State, said the game is addictive, but not so much that she won't invite everyone, even opponents, out for brunch afterward.

I could see maybe a 3D screen peripheral attachment. That way you can buy it separately and enjoy the 3D but if you already have a 3DTV or don't care for the feature, it's not a price burden from the on set. AND it doesn't bulk up the controller.
Yeah, an accessory would be the wiser route to take.
That spec is gonna push the retail price over 400USD... Imagine PS3 with four times the RAM and a MUCH better GPU. For 1080P with MSAA in 3D (probably 30Hz per Eye, too) you need a FAT GPU. And I mean something akin to ATI 6850 or even more powerful (at least in PC terms).
Kept you waiting
I did my own BOM earlier tonight and I get about $200 for it.
A $35 (probably $25 for vendor price) already walks all over the PS3 GPU. A $70 GPU is easily several times more powerful. A 6850 in a closed system would just be nasty.
More powerful is not the question here. If we want "more powerful than PS3 at 4xMSAA 1080P and 3D", you need a LOT more power than RSX. My 8800GTS is already a lot more powerful than RSX, yet anything beyond 1680x1050 (with 2 or 4x MSAA) makes the games unplayable... and that is below 30Hz. For 3D to work you need 60Hz, 30Hz for each eye.
Though, with their recent comments about how they wait for glasses-less 3D, I doubt Nintendo will go with 3D... but on the other hand, TV technology is independent of console tech, as long as the connector (HDMI1.4a) stays the same. So if a glasses-less TV comes out soon, they might still do it.
The other question would be, if they actually need to target 1080P3D, because as of now, 1080P3D only gives you 24Hz per eye, which might not be enough for gaming.
Kept you waiting
4xMSAA 1080P in a closed system could be done easily with an 8800 GTS. And a modern equivalent to an 8800 GTS would run about $25.
Want something a few levels more powerful, a modern $60 GPU in a closed system would give you plenty.
Well... the 8800GTS was (back then) the biggest GPU chip ever made. I doubt anyone could produce it at that price. Though I give you that closed system will give it a boost. 1080P with 4xMSAA will need a LOT of RAM for the framebuffer and a lot of bandwidth, though. Twice that if they go for 3D.
Kept you waiting
Sure it was big, but that's also nVidia's architecture at work there. They are the king of the giant monolithic GPU. Nintendo is in bed with ATi (AMD now) who are known for pushing just as much power from a much smaller die size. The 8800 was 484 mm with 681 million transistors. The HD 6700 series would walk all over it with a die size if just 170 mm and 1.04 billion transistors all for about $60.
As for RAM, did you see what I posted about that already? 4 GB is going for about $38 right now. Probably under $30 from the vendor. More than plenty for 4xMSAA, 1080p @ 60 fps.
Sure sure... I just put the 8800GTS as a comparison here, as it was released more or less day and date with the PS3 (and since I have one).
Kept you waiting
Fact is, they'd actually have to try real hard to make a console less powerful than the PS3 because all the vendor components right now are superior. They'd have to specifically order inferior parts which would end up costing more.
Not necessarily. They can just buy the IP, similar to what MS did, and fab the stuff themselves. It's not the same as with HDDs, where there are basically no rentable fabs that can do this. Chips however, especially older ones, can be made this way. Can Nintendo fab stuff themselves?
Plus, they might even go the ARM route. With parts like Tegra2 and newer, they could surpass the Wii easily and make it a cheaper system, too.
Kept you waiting
The power should be moderately high, as I think Nintendo will just opt for the best value for their money. That is, the most modern hardware they can afford while making the final product profitable since launch.
The new system could probably feel underpowered compared to the following systems in terms of raw power, but much like the 3DS, they'd implement modern shaders and whatnot that would make graphics appear to be more detailed than what they really are like.
PSN ID: VGAficionado
They don't fab anything themselves.
Sony has 168,000 employees.
Nintendo has 4,200.
And I don't see them going ARM or Tegra2. No point in either at all. They'll likely stick with IBM and ATi (AMD). Going ARM and Tegra2 wouldn't even get them to X360/PS3 level and this thing is supposedly going to surpass it.
Supposedly NGP was as powerful as PS3 too... you know the language they use. Well... I guess this is all speculation anyways...
Kept you waiting
For whatever its worth can we please nix the power brick on the cord? I don't care if it's like the N64 but just put that damned thing in the system.

This and the PSP2 is using 1/4th the screen resolution (compared to 1080p). PSP2 is not as powerful as a PS3. I'd say not even half as powerful. But what it does have is modern shaders, good texture resolutions and a small, sharp screen. Makes it sorta 'look' like PS3 graphics.
Taking a look at the RSX GPixels (4.4) and comparing that to modern GPU's, even an HD 6570 tops it (5.2) and they don't even sell that on the market. It's an OEM only part for HTPC's.
I just don't see how Nintendo could launch a system that doesn't exceed the PS3 unless they purposefully order components to do so which would probably cost just as much due to economies of scale.
Well we all hope that it would be easy to top the PS3 given the time span between the two. Besides if our very own iSupply (viper) can spec a potential machine at $200. They could price it like the Wii at launch ($250) and still be cheeper than the PS3 w/Move or Kinect bundled 360. Toss in motion control superior to Move and or Kinect and thats going to be a really attractive system for those who have a Wii (if BC is confirmed) and no other next gen system (there are a lot of them).
PSN: CptnAmerica
Twitch: CptnAmeric4
I say good move by Ninty, Sony and MS don't really need an upgrade as much, (MS do a little with DVD) but in order to not be overshadowed by a "Wii2 hype", they simply need to re-market there system--which can be difficult, but MS did it with a HD camera so
Overall though, this should be a system more tailored to hobbyist gamers with a vastly improved online system, which is always a welcome addition, though I have no interest in picking up a new home console anytime soon with the new handheld releases this year. I'm positive it'll be PS3 powerful and at an affordable price, I don't see why Nintendo would abandon a successful site.
Had the religion of Christianity been preserved according to the ordinances of the Founder, the state and commonwealth of Christendom would have been far more united and happy than they are. Nor can there be a greater proof of its decadence than the fact that the nearer people are to the Church, the head of their religion, the less religious are they.

The state has earmarked almost $1 billion for infrastructure projects in Northwest Florida, more than two-thirds of it in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties.
"These are projects that have been planned and talked about that we thought might happen sometime in the future," Florida Senate President Don Gaetz, R-Niceville, said Jan. 31 at Pensacola City Hall. "Thanks to negotiations we in the Northwest Florida (state legislative) delegation have had with the governor and the transportation secretary, we've moved up money in the (Florida Department of Transportation) Five-Year Plan and these projects are going to happen."

If your assets are in a tax-favored retirement fund such as a company or Keogh pension or profit-sharing plan (including thrift and savings plans), 401(k), IRA or stock bonus plan, when it comes time to take distributions you have several options:
Your retirement assets may be distributed in kind-as employer stock, or an annuity or insurance contract. Sometimes certain withdrawal options may be associated with certain retirement plans, for instance, annuities are more common with pension plans. Other types of plan favor the other options, but for the most part most of these options are available for most plans. And more than likely, you'll want to preserve the tax shelter as long as possible by withdrawing no more than you need at any given time.
Timing your withdrawal can be a factor, too. Withdrawals before age 59 ½ risk a tax penalty. At the other end, withdrawals are generally required to start at age 70 ½ or face a tax penalty. The only exceptions are Roth IRAs and non-owner-employees still working beyond that age.
Your personal needs should decide. You may need a lump sum to buy a retirement home or retirement business. If your employer requires that you take a lump sum distribution, it may be wise to roll it over into an IRA.
There are several things you might do depending upon your needs:
If you don't need the assets to live on, try to continue the tax shelter and leave the money where it is.
Transfer or roll over the assets into your new employer's plan--if that plan allows it (this can be tricky, though).
If you've decided to start your own business, set up a Keogh and move the funds there.
Roll them over into your IRA.
In general, employer plans such as your 401(k), IRAs and pension plan funds are protected from general creditors unless you've used these assets as securities against a loan or you are entering into bankruptcy. If this is the case, there's a chance they could be seized, but if the money is in a registered IRA, pension plan, or 401(k), it's more than likely they will be protected in case of bankruptcy (subject to state and federal law of course).
Each state is different, but in general, consider the following:
While withdrawals are generally taxable in states with income tax, some offer relief for retirement income, up to a specified dollar amount.
If your state doesn't allow deductions for Keogh or IRA investments allowed under federal law, these investments and sometimes more may come back tax-free.
Money from retirement plans, including 401(k)s, IRAs, company pensions and other plans, is taxed according to your residence when you receive it.
If you move from a state with a high income tax, such as New York, to one with little or no income tax (Texas, Nevada and Florida have none), you will indeed save money on state income tax.
However, establishing residence in a new state may take as long as one year; if you retain property in both states, you may owe taxes to both.

The Verge of Insanity
It might seem that the lonely lighthouse life would encourage communication between those who manned it together. But even two people were too many for one keeper who lived at the Halfway Rock Light in the 1880s.
G.H. Toothaker refused to speak to his assistant for weeks, justifying this only by saying that he, the keeper, often was "moody, and did not care to speak to another person." Toothaker eventually resigned after an inspector reported that he was "on the verge on insanity."
