Unfortunately they are not. The only way that a RBN1 song could come over is if a RB3 version was made of that particular track (and there's still no guarantee that HMX will port over said track).

Sometimes i hate RBN 2.0 thx for that useless keyboard. ok i write ASP again and maybe HMX too. But I don't give up now. thx for your "help" ^^ see ya now do your RBN 2.0 requests without me ... i coming back when "Martyr to Sicene" will released :-P
PLEASE convert this RBN 2.0 song to PS3!

Thank you for:
"Martyr To Science" by Deadlock
For the convenience of people in this thread, I'm just going to recopy what I wrote here.
At this point in time, it would require a significant rework of the infrastructure and PS3 pipeline, including a multi-week pause in PS3 song releases. And once we did that, we wouldn't be able to bring RBN2 songs out until we had a second multi-week pause in song releases and shifted the pipeline back.
I personally don't believe that we will ever release RBN1 songs on the PS3 again. Additionally, I would argue stridently against any internal suggestion that we do so, because the inherent nature of the RBN's structure (founded and 100% reliant upon Xbox technology) already causes delays for PS3 players in receiving RBN songs. I am fervently against adding any further, avoidable delay.
If there is ever a chance of getting RBN1 songs again on the PS3, I promise that I will let you all know as soon as I can. And I would be thrilled to hear your RBN1 wish list if that time ever occurs.
But for the time being, I request that you limit your requests to RBN2 songs.
And if there's an RBN1 song that you would really love to have - which is understandable, because there are some fantastic tracks that we were never able to convert - then your best bet is to let the authoring company know about your interest in a RBN2 version.
With that said, there's no guarantee of any given song being converted over to PS3. There are a number of factors involved in how we select songs for PS3, and we are still operating with a limit of 5 songs a week.

I'm not sure how or why this thread got closed, so I'm reopening it.
I'm surprised we never got the Paul Henry Smith songs, they should be released as RBN2.0, especially Night on Bald Mountain; and also the Thomas Walker ones. I think that either Megalodon or Farewell, Mona Lisa would also be great double bass songs.
What we need:
Alien Ant Farm - "Glow"
Antoine Dodson & The Gregory Brothers - "Bed Intruder Song"
Chiodos - "Caves"
Devin Townsend - "By Your Command"
Devin Townsend - "Ziltoidia Attaxx!!"
Free Spirit - "Heroes Don't Cry"
Free Spirit - "Moonlight Ride"
Free Spirit - "Shadow of a Man"
Halycon Way - "Desecration Day"
Neonfly - "Ship With No Sails"
Rishloo - "River of Glass"
Rishloo - "Turning Sheep Into Goats/Systematomatic"
Stagehands - "Now Or Never"
Ultra Saturday - "Dawn Of The Condoms"
What we got:
Insomniac Games - "(pin)Ballz" - 7/19
Rishloo - "Katsushika" - 7/26
Nonpoint - "Crazy" - 8/9
Nonpoint - "Miracle" - 8/9
Special Request For:
A 2x Bass Pedal song, just for the sake of having one.
DLC Wishlist:
[ ] More Disturbed
[ ] More Coheed & Cambria
[X] More Breaking Benjamin - Nov. 1st 2011
"Free Spirit" is simply amazing. I really, really hope that we get the rest of their tracks (with keys, hopefully) on PS3. Such a talented band, I can't stop playing their album in my car.
Hopefully, the Xbox 360 folks will like their tracks and buy them, so that the sales can justify a PS3 port. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe they (at least most of them) are only 99 cents a song?

Know this about Windows 7 sales, support cutoff dates
The long, slow march toward end-of-life of Microsoft's currently most popular operating system is under way.
As of October 30, 2013, Microsoft ceased selling boxed copies of Windows 7 at retail. (ZDNet's Ed Bott posted back in April of this year about the pending October 30 cut-off date, but a few stories have popped up this week about it, so this is just a reminder.)
This October 30 cut-off date doesn't mean that OEMs or retailers are no longer selling PCs with Windows 7 preloaded. I can verify after a trip earlier this week to the Datavision … Read more

Choose City: Emei Travel GuideLocated 156 kilometers away from Chengdu city, the capital city of Sichuan Province, Emei the area of Mt. Emei is of exceptional cultural significance, since it is the place where Buddhism first became established on Chinese territory and from where it spread widely throughout the east. It is also an area of natural beauty into which the human element has been integrated, and natural criterion for its high plant species diversity with a large number of endemic species. It also underlined the importance of the link between the tangible and intangible, the natural and the cultural. Mt. Emei is one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China. The first Buddhist temple in China was built here in the 1st century A.D. in the beautiful surroundings of the summit Mount Emei. The addition of other temples turned the site into one of Buddhism´s holiest sites. Over the centuries, the cultural treasures grew in number. Some famous temples are: Baoguo Temple, Fuhu Temple, Wannian Temple, and Golden Summit Temple. Mount Emei is also notable for its exceptionally diverse vegetation, ranging from subtropical to subalpine pine forests. Some of the trees there are more than 1,000 years old. The Mt Emei climb is filled with hundreds of views of luxuriant scenery and seemingly millions of stairs. The major scenic goal of Chinese hikers is to witness a sunrise or sunset over the sea of clouds at the summit.

No progress on any knitting project since Friday, I'm starting to feel like the biggest slacker around. Especially after seeing all of your gorgeous projects, and since I have an overachiever of a sister who is already working on her second sweater! I am so behind. My lack of progress my also be in part to the fact that I've cast on another project.
The pattern is Asunder, and at first I did feel a little guilty for having cast it on and working on it instead of focusing solely on Aidez, but as time goes on I have found that this is the perfect project to have on the needles at the same time. Aidez is a lovely pattern but it has a lot of cables, and while I've gotten the hang of it and I don't have to watch every stitch on every row, it's not quite as mindless as good old garter stitch. So I have been picking up Asunder after every few hours of working on Aidez – just to give myself a break. Or I'll pick up Asunder when it gets late in the evening and my eyes start drooping. For me, that is never a good time to knit a project that requires even the littlest amount of concentration because it always ends in mistakes.
The yarn is String Theory sock yarn. It's a great yarn, absolutely no complaints with it and I would definitely buy it again. They have some really great colors too. I was able to pick this up at one of my LYS, and while the price looks a little high ($26/skein) there are over 400 yards per skein!
So fess up fellow Nice & Knit-along friends — who else is two-timing their knitting projects??…or maybe even three, or four-timing?

Mental health professionals: what can you expect? In the stereotypical therapy session, the pa-tient plops down on the couch and the doctor asks him about his childhood. In reality, the therapist's office may not even have a couch. What should you expect when you seek help from a mental health professional? The first thing you will probably be asked is "Why are you here?" That may be followed with "How did this situation develop?" Next may come questions about basic demo-graphic information. When is mental help vital? At points the session will be more conversa-tional, but the patient may talk about things he would not talk about with friends. Warren Lowe, a local psychologist and chairman of the professional affairs committee of the Louisiana Psychological Association, said he asks patients about the circumstances under which the problem occurs and previous treatment of the problem. A normal session will be about 50 minutes, according to local professionals. The number of times a week that a person goes to therapy will depend on the individual, the type of therapy and the therapist. The actual form a therapist's help takes also varies. While some professionals may make explicit suggestions, others may act as a guide as they strive to help their client solve his own problems. In general, Lowe said, the trend is for therapists to be more directive and more in-volved in the therapy. Lowe, for example, may assign a patient homework. If a person is depressed and withdrawn, he may be asked to read a specific piece on depression and keep a daily log of his activities. Lowe may then go over the log, emphasizing the activities that gave the patient pleasure. A patient may also be given specialized tests during early sessions to test such things as his intelligence quotient. Lowe also believes a patient should ask questions during the initial session. For exam-ple, fees and the therapist's cancellation policies should be discussed. March 24 1981 By JUDY PACE Of The Times Staff You've been depressed for months. You can't seem to get your work done any more. It's been weeks since you've had a good night's sleep, and you've dropped more than 20 pounds. According to local experts, you should con-sider professional psychotherapy. However, suppose your symptoms are not so severe. How do you know when to seek help from a mental health professional? How much will it cost you? How can you pick the professional who is right for you? In an effort to answer these questions, The Times interviewed a variety of local experts. They agreed that a person should seek help when he has trouble functioning in his day-to-day life. __ Dr. John Brauchi, head of the d e p a r t m e n t of psychiatry at Louisiana State University School of Medicine in Shrevepdrt, said depression is the most frequent symptom that [ brings a patient in. Others may include I weight loss, a slowing down Brauchi of activities and interests, an inability to concentrate, job dissatisfaction or an inability to sleep. Those interviewed emphasized, though, that the symptoms which cause a person to seek help vary. They also stressed that every symptom does not concern everyone. Just because a person is unhappy with his job, for example, does not necessarily mean he needs psychotherapy. Anxiety may be a symptom which brings people to psychotherapy. Brauchi and Ronald Nathan, Ph.D., head of the division of medical psychology in the depart-ment of psychiatry, said that everyone has some anxiety, which can be useful in life. People have a coping range, they said, which they I may go outside of on oc- Nathan casion. However, a person who is always out-side his coping range is chronically anxious and could use therapy. Anxiety, Brauchi said, is an undefinable sense of impending doom. The men said a person may wish to seek help from a mental health professional if he has chronic self-defeating behavior, is not able to form close relationships or makes frequent job changes. "The patient is frequently the elected representative of an unhealthy family," Brauchi said. A person may also want to consider therapy if he feels life is not fulfilling, according to Nathan. For example, a person may feel trapped in a role he or she did not expect, such as the bored housewife. While some people may be content to continue their life feeling unfulfilled, others may want to try to change it. Psychotherapy can help people try out new ways of living, according to Nathan. Physical symptoms may often accompany other symptoms, Brauchi said. Tension headaches, for example, are among the most frequent. He said that many times potential psychotherapy patients will see a family doctor with physical symptoms. Symptoms may shift around the body, he said, from complaint of a heart attack to diarrhea to headaches as the person plays out his anxiety. "You can chase it all over the body," he said. Dr. Erie Harris Jr., who works with Area' Psychiatric-Psychological Associated Services, said many times problems de-velop with predictable changes in life. For example, young adults who are getting out into the world may have t career and job problems or problems completing their ^dependence. Middle-aged people may ex- Yrience problems when they no longer have |ldren to care for. Older people may have yible coping with their age. Harris Those interviewed agreed that the stigma attached to mental health care has lessened as people become more educated about the sub-ject. However, some people still fear others will think they are crazy if they seek help and would rather blame their problems on someone else. When a person decides to seek professional help, he is faced with a variety of choices. He must decide whether he wishes to see a psychiatrist, a psychologist or a social worker and who the professional will be. Those interviewed said most patients come to them through the recommendation of a family doctor, friend or minister. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who has specialized in psychiatry. He can prescribe medicine. A psychologist has done undergraduate work and received a doctorate degree from an ac-credited university. In Louisiana, he must have a license to practice as a psychologist. Other mental health professionals include social workers and psychiatric nurses. The ethical psychiatrist, psychologist or social worker will be interested in making sure that the best qualified person takes care of the patient, those interviewed said. Therefore, they will refer the person to the proper professional for treatment, if they cannot provide it. Warren Lowe, Ph.D., a local psychologist, is chairman of the Professional Affairs Commit-tee of the Louisiana Psychological Association. Lowe recommended that patients use a licensed professional, whether it be a psychiatrist, psychologist or social worker. Such licensing requires scrutiny by pro-fessional committees, and patients have an Lowe avenue to complain if they are dissatisfied with the service they received. As a consumer, Lowe said, a patient can com-plain, for example, if he thinks he was charged un-reasonably. In many cases a clinic I will include a variety of support personnel. A pa-tient may see a psychiatrist at first and then go into' group therapy led by a social worker, for example. Harris, whose clinic offers diversified services, said such series are being offered more and more now. A professional may see the family as a group, he said. The parents may then be directed to a social worker for informa-tion on parenting, and the child may receive help with learning difficulties. The type of treatment a patient receives is a clinical judgment based on the individual's needs. * If a person's condition requires medication, a psychiatrist is the mental health professional he needs to see. Depression, for example, may be treated with a mild drug. "Depression is like a financial depression and occurs when people stop invest-ing" in such things as hobbies, their job, church or relationships, Brauchi said. Drugs may be needed to make the person feel like investing in life again, helping him explore what caused his problems in the beginning, he said. The cost of therapy depends on the type of A patient may also be interested in the access he will have to his therapist during non-office hours. He may want to know about the therapist's background: Is he licensed? Where was he trained? Has he had experience treating pro-blems similar to his current patient's? The patient has the right to be informed of any side effects or limitations of a type of therapy, Lowe said. He also has a guarantee that the therapist will not reveal any informa-tion from the sessions, or even the fact that he is in psychotherapy, without the patient's consent. therapy and the professional. Estimates of the price for a session with a local psychiatrist range from $40 to $90 an hour, with the average at about $60. The cost for a session with a psychologist is approx-imately the same. Group therapy is cheaper, and generally ranges from about $20 to $35 a session. Patients who cancel appointments may be subject to charge, depending on the rules of the person they are seeing. Some professionals, for example, require 24 hours notice of cancella-tion. For those who cannot afford therapy at a private clinic, other help is available. The Shreveport Mental Health Center at 1310 N. Hearne and Family Counseling and Children's Services at 864 Olive offer therapy at a price based on the patient's income. At the Mental Health Center, prices range from $1 to $23.50 for a 45-minute session. The facility is funded by the state, and its staff includes psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, nurses and occupational therapists. It has an active caseload of 3,500. The center is open to anyone, and patients do not have to be referred there. "If a person is experiencing a problem in their everyday liv-ing, they can just pick up the phone," said administrator Beverly Stuckey. People who come to the center complete an application and are sent to the proper pro-fessional. Family Counseling Services,-a United Way Agency, provides therapy from master social workers. The fee is from nothing to $30 an hour. Sessions can make difference They made fun of her, told her she was stupid, and made her mad. They were eager listeners and a built-in set of friends. That is how one woman who sought psychological counseling described the people she came into contact with during group therapy. The woman, who asked jiot to be named, spent about two years in therapy after her marriage broke up. She praises the difference the sessions made in her life. Before her divorce, she and her husband also saw a psychiatrist in private sessions. The doctor was recommended by a family friend and seemed to be the only alternative at the time, she said. When she and her husband split up, the doctor put each of them into separate groups. She admits she was dubious at first. "You think, 'I'll go, and I'll listen, but I'm not going to get involved.'" However, it did not take long for that to change. Soon she was talking to the group regularly, eager for suggestions. "I wanted somebody to listen," she said. "Here you have an audience of people who are willing to listen and help if they can." A new perspective The sessions, she said, also helped put her own problems into perspective.' "I thought my problem was bigger than anything in the whole world," she said. "Then you get to listening to problems other people have and yours become kind of minor." When you say your problem out loud, she said, you get feedback. The way your group members see it may be so different from the way you see it. Included in the sessions were two social workers who served as leaders. Although the leaders rarely gave a direct answer, she said, they asked questions and helped make mem-bers think. "They sort of keep you on the right track and don't let you get off the subject." The sessions were considerably cheaper than the private meetings with the psychiatrist. While she paid $65 for an hour with the doctor ("and an hour is actually only 50 minutes"), she paid $27.50 for a 1 1/2-hour group session ("more) time for less money"). Because of limited tiime, group members were required to register if they wanted to talk during a session. If they did not register, they could not air their problems even if they decided during the session that they wanted to. Group problems The problems of the group ranged from the unusual to the pathetic. The specific problem that the woman con-fronted the group with was her feelings of rejection after her husband left. "You don't think you're worth much any more," she said. Her husband, she learned in the group, had been her entire base of support. .While she should have used friends and family for sup-port, she had leaned entirely on him. When he left, she had no base of support. The group soon became a support system for her, she said, and its members were "sort of built-in friends." The members exchanged phone numbers and were encouraged to call each other during the week if they needed support. Members also occasionally got together for social outings, she said. When members called her for help, she said, she would drop everything else because she knew it was important to them. One benefit she received from the group was the incentive to lose weight. At first, she said, she was so depressed that she' didn't care. However, as she felt better, it became impor-tant to lose. Her group members told her she should lose weight. A group leader drew up a contract with her in which she agreed to lose a pound a week or pay $2. "I never did have to pay them any money," she said proudly. Sinking in Sometimes when she told the group a pro-blem, they would laugh at her foolishness. "To them it was so outlandish that it finally began to sink in to me," she said. "You'd get mad sometimes, and you say, 'but, but, but, but," she said. "They (group members) just beat my head against the wall — telling me I was all right by myself." She quit therapy when the group began to dissolve, but recommends it for anyone. "Do i t It can't hurt. It is going to help in some way. "I know that there is supposed to be a stigma to it, but it didn't bother me," she said. "I wanted the help so bad I didn't care." She said she reached the point where she was proud of it because she was helping herself. "The big thing," she said, "is that support-system business." — JUDY PACE

Singapore did well in World Junior Championship, but...
In the just concluded team event in the World Junior Championship in Korea, team Singapore did well to finish 6th overall. Notably they defeat England the previous round to force the 5-6th place play off with Japan.
The standings are:
1st: Korea
2nd: China

5th: Japan
6th: Singapore
7th: Thailand
8th: India
9th: Chinese Taipei
10th: England
11th: Germany
12th: Russia
13th: Denmark
14th: Netherland
15th: Czech Republic
16th: Turkey
17th: Hong Kong

27th: South Africa
28th: Egypt
Look at where our Juniors are ahead of the likes of England and Demark is amazing. But the immediate question spring to mind is: whilst our Juniors did well at this stage of their badminton life, why we could not make similar achievement in the senior level? We struggle to consistently qualify for the Thomas Cup and Uber Cup finals.
Even in individual events, the likes of Thailand, India and Hong Kong can even boast more competitive players than we have at the senior level comeptitions.
It appears there is no continuity (Kendrick Lee is a good example). Was it because of there are much more choices available in our society that these Juniors would put badminton as a lesser priority ine their career choice? Or was there lack of management and coaching of these yound talents when they reach adulthood?
Anyone cares to share their insights?
Hey Linus,
You know, when I was much younger(when I was in primary school) I used to go fishing alot. Thats prolly because its the only place my dad will bring me along with him. Because of the regular visits, I began to think I like fishing.
But now, I realise I enjoy diving more...in fact I dont fish anymore. My dad still enjoy fishing though.
Ok back to the main topic, how many of the Juniors you mentioned truly love badminton for the game? Many of them, in fact are too young to know what they really enjoy doing. I believe most were told what to do rather than telling what they want to do, so its only natural that many will stray away from badminton when they reach adulthood.
When one is young, especially when in primary school, the parents dictate what is 'good' for the child. Unfortunately, most parents still feel that 'study hard is better than play hard' as with a good education and good academic results, one's future will be more secure. So our children spend more time studying than training in sports. The paper chase is still very much preferred.
Although the mindset of some parents is changing in that they allow their sports talented children to attend the only Sports School in Singapore, this started only about 3 years ago. The talent pool is still very small and the SBA has resorted to importing talented badminton players from time to time to fill the gaps so as to maintain the popularity of badminton in Singapore. If the BWF as the world badminton body is able to attract more sponsors who are able to raise the prize moneys of international tournaments, as they will for the Super Series next year, more will be attracted to make badminton their profession. Once parents feel that their children can make a living from sports, they will be more comfortable.
Then our talented juniors, who are now ranked a creditable 6th in the world, will be more inclined to take up badminton more seriously and move on to fill the ranks of the seniors in due course. Then we will be able to field teams of players that are worthy of the high standards of the Thomas, Uber and Sudirman Cups.
But we need time to train champions and the SBA, with the help of the Sports School and the Sports Council, already have action plans to ensure we are on the right track.
As someone has said, give us another 10 years to place ourselves in a more secure and firm foundation. Hopefully, we can shorten this time to show some good results that will encourage and inspire all involved to aspire for higher goals.Last edited by Loh; 11-07-2006 at 12:06 AM.
It's true. In some other local forums, people were questioning the need for the Sports Hub. Saying it's a waste of taxpayer's money, why the need for S'poreans to excel in sports, blah blah blah.
Hopefully I can contribute something in the areas of psychology and physiotherapy once I complete my studies (Bachelor, then Masters... ). It will take quite a while!
or maybe just apply for PR in Australia?
I am just curious. How many 'imported' players are there in this Junior team?
Singapore's Junior Representatives
These are the names I managed to fish out from the result postings by Sandy:
1. Derek Wong Zi Liang
2. Jonathan Tang Yew Loong
3. Terry Yeo Zhao Jiang
4. Thng Boon Seong, and
5. Chen Guo Rui
All first 4 are local-born Singaporeans who have been training full time. Not sure whether Chen is Singaporean.
1. Siti Noor Ashikin Leman
2. Thng Ting Ting
3. Jill Vanessa Poo
4. Colleen Goh Li En
I believe all 4 are local-born Singaporeans.
5. Sari Shinta Mulia
6. Xing Aiying
Both are imported talents and are now Singapore citizens, Xing for sure.
Apart from Sari and Xing, Siti is training full time. The other girls are still studying; Ting Ting in the Sports School, Jill in Secondary School and Colleen in JC
Not all of the above players took part in the team events, I think. All participated in the individual events still ongoing. But I think all were knocked out except for Derek Wong (singles and doubles with Jonathan Tang and Jonathan and Sari in XD.
Disappointed that Xing, our best hope in WS, could not advance further even though she was seeded. Apart from Sari and Siti, I do not expect the others to do well in such a competitive field. Hopefully, they have gained from the experience. Let's hope Derek Wong can do us proud by advancing to the QF in MS.
As expected, Korea and even Japan seem to be playing well.Last edited by Loh; 11-07-2006 at 06:17 AM.
Don't worry Loh.. in time Spore will do well.
Here is an interesting thought to think about though: Prior to the rise of Singapore Sports School, how far did Singapore manage to rise up that ladder? I don't know the answer, but most probably not higher. It is indicating that this newer batch of boys is doing better than their older batch. They are making a difference in my view. And whilst their seniors may not have made it well in the international stage, they may make that difference as well.
One thing though, I've been hearing that this batch of Sports School Players are really tough to coach because they do not have self motivation inside of them. Some were saying that they get shouted at a lot to get them moving right. As a coach myself, this is an indication that their hearts needs to be trained a bit more to love the sport that they play. However, if the rumours weren't true, then my bad All the best for the sports school players.
Oh, and Chen Guo Rui is a local I believe. The only boy that Sports School sent to Guangzhou Training Centre for 3 months I heard.
There is a world of difference between the top world senior players and their junior counterparts. Juniors are mostly amateurs, school boys or girls, and mentally not as matured. To ensure that top junior players do well in the senior ranks they must turn professional and dedicate their future to badminton. In addition you have to have enough of these players, because one or two promising ones do not have the firm grassroots or numbers to flower. That is why China is streets ahead of the other countries in developing juniors to be world beaters, even if their juniors do not come out no. 1.
Yes, I agree with Taneepak.
Compared with before and now, badminton has been made more popular, in no small part owing to the determined efforts of the now BWF (ex-IBF) and the national badminton associations to ensure badminton's continued existence in the Olympics. A number of hitherto 'unknown' countries are now taking up this game more seriously. Fresh talents from both the East and the West have propped up from time to time. The recent Denmark Open 2006 has really opened our eyes.
Relatively unknown Poland's Kostiuczyk and Augustyn beat the experienced English pair of Gail Emms and Donna Kellogg in straight games to clinch the WD title. The Russian players have also been in the news although they haven't captured any major title yet. These players are now no 'push-overs' as before. They have improved, perhaps with better coaching and better facilities and the fact that some of the retired players from China are now allowed to coach in other countries to share their knowledge and expertise.
That is perhaps one reason why our own Kendrick Lee and Ronald Susilo (apart from his Achilles tendon injury) are at a standstill, not moving ahead from their old position and even got behind. The competition is getting hotter and tougher!
If our young aspirants from the junior ranks think that they have arrived and should be accorded 'star' treatment, they will be sorely disappointed. A World Junior Championship like the one currently held in Incheon, South Korea, is timely to put them in their right places and to let them know where they stand in world badminton.
Commitment, enthusiasm, discipline, hard work, an ever willingness to learn, humbleness (like what Lee Chong Wei possesses) plus a mental resolve to be the best one can be must never be relegated if one is to succeed in the ever demanding world of competitive badminton.
So our Sports School trainees must learn not to make themselves 'difficult' to be coached. The sooner they learn this the better for their badminton prowess.Last edited by Loh; 11-08-2006 at 04:58 AM.

i believe the govt is not helping enough. The education system in Singapore is so 'paper based' that many top players dare not commit so much to badminton as they and their family are afraid that without a cert in singapore, u cant survive. with this mentality, SG will find it extremely difficult to rise to top ranks like china when the govt provide schemes for the players

Now, just like some of the 'O' level graduates who turned professional early this year, they make a personal commitment and 'sacrifice' to train full time to achieve international success. I suppose they really want to know how far they can go if they put in their best efforts. The SBA does have a programme to compensate them and if they win honours for themselves and the country, financial incentives and other arrangements are available when the time comes for them to retire.
But the talented must be bold enough to make the move first! And they can only do this when they are young, not when they are past 21, 25 or 30!
11-27-2006, 08:00 AM #16Originally Posted by Loh
so I'm a few weeks late for this, but I'm super psyched about #21.
Hooray for my lab partner/friend who barely trains and semi-friend who spends six hours a day training!
I'm just excited that they got to go, and made it past first round. It's so hard for North Americans to do well on the world stage.
Although perhaps if the CDN government funded us to train, that would help our results. Not like they care, since it's not hockey, speed skating, skiing, or any other sport in the winter olympics...

Do antibiotics cure the common cold? If you answered yes, you've got good company in being wrong. A recent poll found that many Americans don't know enough about antibiotics and their proper use.
The CDC surveyed more than 1,000 people nationwide. Most of those surveyed correctly knew that antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections. But more than 33 percent believed in error that such drugs also work on viruses, such as a cold and the flu.
Other revealing statistics focused on antibiotic resistance. Forty-one percent of those surveyed had heard little or never heard about the topic. Of those who knew about it, their understanding wasn't always correct. For example, many people believed that antibiotic resistance happens to the person taking the antibiotic. They thought that he or she builds up a tolerance to the medication. But it's actually the bacteria that become resistant to the drug. In turn, the drug becomes less effective in treating the bacteria.
Antibiotic resistance poses a serious concern for doctors and patients. That's because the overuse of antibiotics has fueled the growing number of "superbugs." These are infections that have become hard to treat with antibiotics. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, commonly known as MRSA, is one example. The number of Americans hospitalized for MRSA jumped from 2,000 to nearly 370,000 from 1993 to 2005.
The use of antibiotics is declining. It has dropped by 17 percent since 1999. But Americans can do more to prevent antibiotic resistance. Lauri Hicks, D.O., medical director of the "Get Smart: Know When Antibiotics Work" program at the CDC, offers these tips:
Talk with your doctor about when to properly use antibiotics.
Always take antibiotics as prescribed. Use them until they are gone even if you feel better.
Stay up to date on recommended vaccinations.
Prevent illness in the first place by washing your hands often.
Always talk with your health care provider to find out more information.

FDA - Combating Antibiotic Resistance

It can prevent colds, food poisoning, and even the flu-all without a prescription. What is this medical wonder? Simple hand-washing. According to experts, washing your hands regularly is one of the best ways to protect yourself from harmful germs and prevent passing them on to others.
Crucial times to make sure that you wash your hands include after using the bathroom, before and after preparing food, before eating, and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. In order to get the most out of this key step to good hygiene, consider these hand-washing tips:
Use the right hand-washing tools. You need clean, preferably warm, running water and soap.
Take your time! Soapy hands should be rubbed together for 20 seconds. This is about as long as it takes to sing the birthday song twice.
Go for full coverage. Scrub your hands, wrists, fingernails, and between fingers.
Rinse and dry hands using a paper towel or air dryer. If possible, use your paper towel to turn off the water.
Use a sanitizer. If you can't get to soap and water, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer to clean your hands.

MEMBER ALERT: AOPA Pilot Information Center and Member Services will be closed today, Dec. 12, after 2:30 p.m. Eastern, and will reopen Dec. 13 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern. Thank you for your understanding.

More than 100 Globe/Temco Swifts—including one piloted by a veteran of the Royal Canadian Air Force—filled the skies of the United States, Brazil, Canada, and France during an international fly-out on Nov. 4. The event was called "World Domination: The Day of the Swift."
Fort Myers, Fla., Swift owner Perry Sisson thought it would be fun to see how many pilots of the low-wing, retractable-gear airplanes would be interested in flying on a single day. He said he got the idea one morning while looking at a photo of a Swift on Facebook, and "wondered whether I was flying my Swift at that same moment in time."
Sisson used Facebook as well as phone calls and emails to invite the entire Swift community to fly on Nov. 4, and to send him data and photos on where and how long they had flown. The final tally: 101 Swifts took flight, and 32 Swifts were in the air at the same time around the world. The airplanes flew an estimated 136.2 hours.
Sisson said Joseph Armand Gerard Fernand "Fern" Villeneuve also flew on that day. Villeneuve, born July 2, 1927, is a retired lieutenant colonel in the Royal Canadian Air Force, and, according to Sisson, is widely considered in Canada to be one of the nation's finest RCAF pilots.

NetJets has added a new safety feature to its long-range fleet: a doctor who is always in.

Comet 2012 S1 ISON
UPDATE!!!! 2012 has come and gone and this is the only real prediction that has been overlooked by the general public that still has a good possibility of being accurate. This would indeed prove the Bible Codes are real and correct regarding Comet ISON. Originally we thought that the Bible Codes were indicating that this comet would come in the year 2012. Instead the Bible Codes meant that the comet would be discovered in that year. Comets are named according to the year in which they are discovered. Notice how the two Bible Code predictions always mention 2012 after the word comet and never before it. The Bible Codes were not indicating the year, but the name instead.
These 2012 predictions are based on a comet or possibly a group of comets hitting earth. These predictions were pulled directly from the Bible Codes.
We believe that a lot of the 2012 predictions were created to discredit revelations in the Bible. Moses wrote the first five books of the Bible (also known as the Torah). These five books are believed to contain secret codes put there by God himself. The odds are 10 million to 1 that the Bible Codes do not actually exist.
We also feel Wormwood (as referred to in the Bible) is the comet.
Two predictions were found in the Bible Codes:
- Comet 5772 (2012) Earth Annihilated
- Comet It will be Crumbled I will Tear to pieces 2012
One suggests that a comet will hit earth in 2012 and the alternative suggests that the comet will be destroyed! (lets hope so anyway).
We hope that the second statement could mean that the comet is destroyed. However; there is a real fear that the second statement could mean the comet breaks up into multiple pieces before hitting the earth.
In order to believe that a 2012 comet is possible, you first have to believe that the Bible Codes (and the Bible for that matter) are in fact true/exist.
We think you might be pretty shocked at the credibility of the people who feel the Bible Codes are in fact true.
However; we also feel that they were placed in there to help and not hurt anyone. This could mean that if NASA (or any other space agency) believes that they are in fact true, then there is a possibility that the future could be altered.
Who knows what the US/Russia actually have sitting up in space right now? It's possible that the comet has already been found and there is a team working to prevent it from hitting earth. Let's hope so !
From what we understand, NASA is either tracking 90% of all NEOs or will be soon. The Near Earth Object Program is the website where NASA lists comets and asteroids that are being tracked.
Apparently, it is impossible for NASA or anyone else to find all of the asteroids and comets in our universe. But, we are encouraged that they continue to search for them.

Nashville, Tennessee, April 23, 2010: Today marks the day of the long-awaited release of "That's My Job", the latest CD from the "Global Cowboy" himself, Brent Moyer. "That's My Job" is a powerful record that grabs the listener and takes them on an emotional journey from start to finish of the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. As with any Moyer production, the music cuts across genres, and is filled with catchy pop tunes as well as gut-wrenching story songs that expose a certain vulnerability and melancholy that gets straight to the heart of the matter.
Brent Moyer (guitar/trumpet/producer & songwriter) was raised in the mountains of Wyoming and now lives in Nashville, Tennessee. His musical journey began at age six and has taken him around the world. Known as the Global Cowboy, he has shared the stage with many artists; from country star Willie Nelson to pop diva Donna Summer; he played guitar for country legend Lynn Anderson; was a cast member in the hit Broadway Show, "Ring of Fire", the songs of Johnny Cash. As a solo performer and songwriter, he continues to amaze his fans with his impeccable guitar playing with styles ranging from Tex-Mex to Country, Cajun to Jazz. His songs have been recorded throughout Europe and North America; Gary Allan, Reckless Kelly, Wayne Carson, Joe Sun.
Co-writer Tim DeBolt contributes his edgy style with "Just a Stepping Stone" and "Tammy", two solid radio-friendly rockers.
"Tear the Building Down", written with Bob Saporiti, is a powerful and evoking ballad; right and wrong, good and bad, with lush strings and a George Harrison style slide guitar.
Glass of No Regret" and "Glass of Regret" deal with alcoholism in two different ways. Co-written with Uschi, Brent's wife, they take on closet drinkers that are so prevalent in today's society. They also penned "The Bubble of Hope", an inspirational song dealing with tragedy, and the title cut, "That's My Job", as told only by Max, a dog on death row.
"Walk His Way" will lift your spirits; written with 2010 Norwegian Grammy winner, Tore Andersen.
"That's the Truth" is a beautiful love song; written with Ron Davies, a true poet and wonderful writer who left us way too early in 2003.
Exploring the European sounds of Flamenco and Gypsy, "Tango", co-written with Texas legend Richard Dobson, tells the story of passion gone badly and "Smile" was a dream that turned into a story about the cycle of life.
There is also a rousing instrumental version of Ghost Riders…always a real crowd pleaser!
Introducing the new CD, Gypsy Rendezvous. This CD features some of the original cast members from the Ring of Fire Broadway show. Jeff Lisenby on keys and accordian, Ron Krasinski on drums, Dan Immel on upright bass and vocalist, Beth Malone (Ring of Fire). Songs include the hit, Winds of Change (Tim DeBolt/Moyer), the Kostas/Moyer collaboration, Blue Blue Tears and a special rendition of the June Carter/Merle Kilgore classic, Ring of Fire...
Johnny Cash — farm boy, leftist superstar, biblical scholar, novelist and drug addict — had a life as outsized as an American folk tale. How to capture that giant spirit without the man himself is a conundrum never quite solved by Richard Maltby Jr.'s easygoing songbook tribute, "Ring of Fire," now at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts.
"Nashville, Tennessee, singer-songwriter Brent Moyer, in a stylistic turnback to great songs and well-crafted productions, has released his New-Country CD named Global Cowboy. It appeals to the strong traditional and versatile modern tastes of music fans worldwide as "Global Cowboy" Music. It is his fourth CD release on the Swiss label, Brambus Records.

Holly is so excited to be out and about northern Michigan every morning doing live shots for 7&4 News Today!
GRAND TRAVERSE -- Now that televisions have gotten sleeker and slimmer, what are we supposed to do with all those old clunky entertainment centers? Designer Denine Dingeman has some great ideas on how to ReVibe those 80's style sets into something functional and modern. This time Denine took an old futon and combined it with the great storage from underneath an old entertainment center and made something comfortable and useable!
Some other ideas of what to use them for from Designer Denine:
1. Laying the whole Entertainment center on it's back and using it as a platform for a box spring and mattress. Platform beds are popular and a nice clean look and the shelve structure of the piece makes it strong and sturdy.

Nothing new, Fedora must target less new features. Don't byte off more than you can chew, end of story.
Phoronix: Fedora 18 Isn't Looking Too Good, Anaconda Problems
The release of Fedora 18 has already been delayed five times and it's still uncertain when this next Fedora Linux release will actually ship...
Nothing new, Fedora must target less new features. Don't byte off more than you can chew, end of story.
IMO 6 month release schedules are just silly in the first place, I wish fedora (and ubuntu) would consider having longer time between releases, and more post-release updates/support for existing releases.
On the bright side, while Anaconda holds the release the distribution packages actually get into shape. I've been using Fedora 18 and it's rock solid so far.
Will be interesting to see if Red Hat will put this new anaconda installer also onto RHEL 7. Maybe that's the reason why they hurry this anaconda revamp into Fedora 18. It's likely that RHEL 7 will be based on F18. I read that somewhere but have no idea if this was rumor or for sure.
Is this similar to the issues openSUSE were having post 12.1? They started slipping behind schedules and it eventually led to some soul searching, and then procedural changes within the distro's release management.
They need to further though, using ubuntu as an example, their LTS releases are too slow with he hardware enablement updates, and you often get stuck with old software, having to use a bunch of ppa's to keep things up to date.
For example I have ivybridge graphics, so ubuntu 12.04 isn't really an option with its old kernel/drivers. At least fedora is usually decent about updating those.

That's what she said
Na na na na na naaaa Fedora is going to shit. Ubuntu is the king! Fedora is clearly inferior to Ubuntu and less usable. Now they can't even ship. Good times for debian though... I always felt there were too many distributions. At least 90 percent of them should just die and the devs put effort in the few viable ones. Too many people doing the same thing.

Bright Neon Tutu
Comfy, very neon, but stringy
I got a S/M and I usually wear a kids 16 in pant or sometimes a small in junior sizes. It fit perfect! The waist band was a little loose on me, but my waist is tiny. I wore it for my halloween costume. My friend and i were neon freaks and it was insanely neon! sadly, we didnt get to wear them at night because of hurricane sandy, trick or treat was in the day time. One downside, after only one wear, it started to get lots of strings on it. other than that, awesome!

I bought this tutu and wow. In this pic it looks more like a baby yellow...but its actually like BRIGHT neon...which is pretty cool. The day after I bought it , i wore it over some ripped jeans and i wore it with knee high boots, and a black vest. I can honestly say I was an eye-catcher (in an awesome way). So many compliments!!!!

Explore Tour Leader / DriverCycling Information
On this tour we cycle 228 km over six days (an average of 38km per day) with further optional rides available. Four of the cycling days are circular routes and therefore optional. We travel mainly on canal towpaths and country roads, on flat or gently undulating terrain. Maps are provided to cycle individually or in groups while the tour leader drives the support vehicle, except on circular routes when the tour leader will cycle with the group. We have graded the route as easy.
