Discover the waterside town of Riverspring and Sarwyck Keep, the seat of the region's ruling family and abandoned home of Alester Sarwyck, one of the game's two main characters
SourceAtlus, in collaboration with Cyanide Studios, have unlocked a new portion of the official website for "Game of Thrones," an upcoming RPG based on the internationally bestselling book series A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin and critically acclaimed HBO television series, Game of Thrones. Alongside new story details, character profiles, screenshots, and video content released as part of the website expansion, Atlus also confirmed that "Game of Thrones" would release on May 15 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.
The new section of the game's official website turns its focus to the troubled waterside town of Riverspring and Sarwyck Keep, the home of its ruling family. A vacant lordship and civil unrest greet Alester Sarwyck, one of the game's two main characters, as he returns home after a fifteen-year self-imposed exile. He arrives as the town mourns the passing of his father, the elder Lord Sarwyck, forcing Alester to consider reclaiming rule of Riverspring and restoring order to his lordship.
Riverspring, a new town created exclusively for the video game, joins key areas around the Seven Kingdoms that players will explore. Fans craving to know more about Alester, Sarwyck Keep, and the town of Riverspring can visit the official website for the "Game of Thrones" RPG and check out the wealth of new content. The update also includes a new video trailer that provides a brief preview of the story and struggles that await players in this disquieted river town. Both the "Riverspring" and previously released "The Wall" sections of the official site feature quests through which visitors can unlock exclusive media!
Game of Thrones is currently scheduled to release on May 15, 2012 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. For more information, visit http://gameofthrones-thegame.com.

I love the book series and the HBO tv series and i want this game to be good but in my opinion it will most likely end up being subpar.

meh. Not expecting much. Huge fan of the books and I am pleased with the series thus far. I'm not going to worry about the game unless word comes out that it is exceptional and adds to the world-setting as a whole.

Agree with everyone here. I got into the show. I want to get into the books, but at the same time, I don't. Just because I started with the show, I want to see it through to end without knowing what's going to happen. But I'm sure the books are much better. Sorry, kinda rambled on there lol. But as much as I love the show, these games usually end up being mediocre at best. So I'll wait to see how it turns out
Thanks to THUGGEDOUT for the sig, The Black Wolf for the av.Life's too short to be sober! Drunk with power!

Is there going to be a part where you control a young kid climbing up the side of the castle wall and then at the top you catch the Queen banging her brother?! LOL! Why do I see another Lord of the Rings type game flop coming here?! But, seriously I'm a huge fan of the series. Game of Thrones and Walking Dead, best two series out there right now! In my opinion anyways!!

In a interview with GameInformer Bethsoft claimed they was originally approached about taking the license to make this game, but they only wanted to wok on TES V instead. Ill have to wait on some reviews for this game though.

Corsair, a worldwide leader in high-performance computer and flash memory products, today announced the launch of its new Dominator GTX ultra-high performance DDR3 memory modules for Intel and AMD platforms, designed specifically for performance enthusiasts, gamers and extreme overclockers. Corsair Dominator GTX modules are individually screened and tested on multiple high-performance Intel X58 and P55 chipset platforms to ensure that they operate at the incredible frequency of 2250MHz at low-latency timings of 8-8-8-24 at 1.65V. They are designed specifically for performance enthusiasts and overclockers who want to achieve the highest performance possible and to break benchmark world records. "Corsair has a long history of delivering the fastest overclocking memory on the planet, and our engineering expertise and unique understanding of the enthusiast market allows us to continue to push boundaries," said Kevin Conley, VP of Engineering at Corsair. "Corsair Dominator GTX modules are the most tightly-screened, highest-quality and fastest DDR3 memory modules in the world, and we look forward to seeing what the enthusiast and overclocking community can do with these exciting new products." In addition to the incredible frequencies possible on Intel platforms, Dominator GTX modules have also been tested and verified to operate at up to 1800MHz CL6 in high-performance Socket AM3 motherboards for AMD Phenom II processors, providing AMD enthusiasts with a powerful new weapon in their overclocking arsenal. The following table shows baseline performance in a number of popular DDR3 platforms. Dominator GTX modules use Corsair's unique DHX+ heatsink and are supplied with extra-tall cooling fins to maximize heat dissipation. The part number for this module is CMGTX2, and it is sold as a single module, allowing enthusiasts to purchase two modules for dual-channel configurations or three modules for triple-channel configurations. For the highest performance and frequency scaling, Corsair recommends using the GT Airflow fan with tall mounting brackets, which is also available from the Corsair Online Store (part number CMXAF2 GTL). The CMGTX2 is screened by hand, in multiple passes, by Corsair's lab in Fremont, California, and availability will be extremely limited. It will be launched exclusively on the Corsair Online Store on December 8, 2009, at 9AM Pacific Time, and will be sold on a first come first served basis.
Corsair wanted over $300 US(around $350 if i remember correctly) for 4GB of 6-6-6-18 1600mhz for AM3. As much as I wanted it when they offered it to me, I had to decline at that price. Now, these do 1800mhz 6-6-6-18? YIKES!!! $400 or more, maybe? I need 8GB!!! Too much to ask, for me. Doesn't mean I don't drool over 'em though. I'd drop $250 on 4gb, no sweat, but not a penny more.
Well it won't be long till we hit 3000Mhz memory. Too bad they don't keep the speed with more dimm's in use. Wonder what the price of the 2000Mhz GT's will cost after these hit the market.
I totally agree!!! DROOL!!! (We don't have a drool smilie yet??? ) I dropped $215+tx on my current 4Gb DDR2 Dominator paired kit and it was worth it!
yeah I like the spreaders too. Nice speeds and timings but I expect this to be over 300 bucks US when it hits.
Here's the product page for the ram I was refering to...I hoped onto the "notify" list(as it's not available anywhere but direct), and when I got on the list, there were no prices. So, they send you a "limited time offer, do not close webpage or you cannot buy...no re-loading the page" email.... :shadedshu https://shop.corsair.com/store/item_view.aspx?id=979672 $350 USD for 6-6-6-18, 1600mhz. I really am expecting $400 USD, maybe over $500. Ugh. What horrid timing. Maybe next year. Dual 5970's...or these....hmmm....

Deacon Formation
In response to contemporary circumstances and needs, bishops attending Vatican Council II voted to restore the ancient office of the permanent diaconate. The move to establish the diaconate in Oakland originated with the Priests Senate in 1973. Bishop Begin approved the program in 1974. The first deacon class of twenty-seven men was ordained on February 17, 1978. Since then, six additional classes have been ordained. Currently, over 100 deacons provide distinguished service to the community.
The formation process moves through stages: Inquiry and Discernment, Aspirancy, Candidacy and finally Ordination. As with all vocations, a man considering the Permanent Diaconate must discern God's will for his life and whether he is being called to be a deacon. During the Inquiry and Discernment stage, workshops providing tools for discernment are conducted prior to application to the program. These workshops are for the inquirer and his wife, if married.
Currently, there is a class in formation. We can place your name on a waiting list or provide further information to assist with your inquiry and discernment. Learn more...

Executives at Barneys knew their Holiday 2011 retail extravaganza Gaga's Workshop would be a tough act to follow, so this year they got someone even bigger: Disney. For Holiday 2012, the store and the brand collaborated on products, window installations, a short film, and a 3D light show as part of a retail concept dubbed Electric Holiday. The full scope of the project will be unveiled on Nov. 14.
The centerpiece of the collaboration is a short film that will be screened in the windows at Barneys' Madison Avenue flagship store in New York City. In it, Minnie Mouse realizes her dream of modeling in Paris, and ends up walking a runway dressed in Lanvin alongside model-sized versions of Goofy (in Balmain) Daisy Duck (in Dolce & Gabbana) and Mickey Mouse (in Balenciaga).
Products from the partnership marry the fashion world with the Disney experience, too. L'Wren Scott and Rag & Bone designed Mickey Mouse ears that will be sold in select Barneys stores around the holidays, and Diane von Furstenberg and Paul Smith created Mickey Mouse-shaped vinyl figurines.
Barneys CEO Mark Lee called the Disney collaboration a good fit. "The legendary characters and world created by Disney live in the active mind and memory of virtually every citizen of the world," he said. A look at how those characters were reimagined for Electric Holiday in the gallery.
Revealed! More Pics From Anna Dello Russo's H&M Collection
Remember during Couture week when Anna Dello Russo was spotted frolicking around Place Vendome in a pink ball gown and toting a set of turquoise luggage? Turns out that luggage — and in fact all the accessories she was wearing, right down to the bejeweled gator sunglasses perched atop her head — belong to her upcoming H&M collaboration. (The dress was Oscar de la Renta; the frolicking, part of a photo shoot for the September issue of Vogue Russia.)
Now that the issue of Vogue Russia has finally hit newsstands, those images — plus others — have made their way onto the web. What they reveal is not only a much more complete look at the collection, but also a much more intriguing one. Diamante "A" earrings, oversized chain necklaces emblazoned with Dello Russo's name, hinged alligator collars, giant deer charms, bejeweled minaudieries, gold ankle booties — all the pieces are big, glitzy, and very ADR.
Click through for a first look at the collection — hitting H&M stores worldwide Oct. 4 — in the slideshow.
Revealed: Exactly One Red Dress From Margiela's Collaboration With H&M
The September issue of Elle France includes a sneak peek of the highly anticipated Maison Martin Margiela collaboration with H&M.
An elegantly draped, asymmetrical red dress from the collection made its way onto one of the pages of the magazine and was promptly scanned by a blogger and uploaded to The Fashion Spot. This dress is the first piece of the collection to be revealed since the partnership was announced in June. The rest of the pieces are expected in H&M stores worldwide and online Nov. 15.
Alexa Chung to Launch Her Own Label
Alexa Chung has confirmed that she's working on her very own clothing line.
"Yes, I'm definitely going to do that," Chung said when Numéro Tokyo asked her about the idea in an interview for its September issue. "I'm looking into it right now."
A spokesperson for Chung later confirmed the plan for the line to Vogue UK, but offered no other information. Though the line is in its infancy, Chung told Numéro Tokyo she's committed to creating it herself.
"I've got nothing to lose, it's a bit of fun," Chung said. "In this current era of celebrity no one believes you actually design the stuff anyway, even though I sketch everything myself. So if it sucks I can say I had nothing to do with it, and if it's really good I can say 'Here are the drawings, it's all my own work!'"
First Look: All the Pieces From the eBay Holiday Collective
Not to be outdone by the announcement of Target's and Neiman Marcus's upcoming collaboration extravaganza, eBay has announced that it too will partner with some very big names for Holiday 2012.
Seven designers — Billy Reid, Chris Benz, Fallon, Jonathan Adler, Ruffian, Steven Alan, and Tibi — have teamed with the cyber giant to create a limited edition collection, online November 12. The 40-piece collection — titled eBay Holiday Collective — will feature about five pieces from each designer and will include womenswear, menswear, jewelry, travel, electronic accessories, and home decor; all pieces will ship for free and are priced from $50 to $100.
"Thrilled to be collab'ing w @eBay_Fashion this holiday on a ltd edition, locally made collection. All my friends can attest I love Ebay!" Fallon's Dana Lorenz tweeted following the announcement, while Chris Benz responded "You & me, both, sister! Xx". In fact, it seems a love of eBay was somewhat of a prerequisite. All the participating designers were chosen because of "their genuine enthusiasm for eBay," the brand's general manager of fashion, Jeff Somers said, adding that "each [designer] brings originality and a distinct point of view, and embodies the entrepreneurial spirit of our marketplace."
See all the pieces, with prices, here.
A First Look at The Target Neiman Marcus CFDA Collaboration in Action
It's only natural that last week's news of the upcoming Target and Neiman Marcus CFDA designer collaboration would be followed by an all-out marketing blitz — and now, it's finally begun. First up: this just-released and pretty intriguing behind-the-scenes glimpse at the collaboration's starting point, which, logically, included lots of meetings in colorfully decorated studios and lots of fabric, print, and sketch reviews. The video shows all that, plus offers cameo appearances by nearly every one of the collaboration's key players, including — but not limited to — Diane von Furstenberg, Ken Downing, Eddie Borgo, Georgina Chapman, Robert Rodriguez, Tracy Reese, Stacey Bendet, and Prabal Gurung. See it all below, and keep those eyes peeled for any clues as to what the 50-piece Holiday collection might actually look like.
Jason Wu to Introduce Lower-Priced Line
Jason Wu says he wanted to "explore the other side of myself" when he created Miss Wu, the lower-priced line he'll begin selling exclusively at Nordstrom in January.
"I always see Jason Wu [the collection] as my aesthetic, my design sensibility," Wu said. "Miss Wu is my personality. It was really fun to explore that facet of who I am — slightly more downtown, and with a more relaxed attitude."
The 40-piece collection features Wu's signature feminine, floral aesthetic with touches of inspiration from the '60s. Clothing will be priced from $195 for a sleeveless silk bow blouse to $795 for a black leather jacket. (A sleeveless blouse from Wu's main collection, by comparison, costs $565.)
Nordstrom will carry the line in 49 stores across the country and has exclusive rights to sell the brand for one year. After that, Wu plans to expand the line into a full wholesale operation and expand the brand's offerings. "The first two seasons are based solely on ready-to-wear," he said. "By 2014, we plan to have accessories."
A Peek at The Francisco Costa For Calvin Klein Macy's Collection
Francisco Costa brings his clean-lined Calvin Klein minimalism to Macy's this month with a limited-edition capsule collection of dresses in architectural shapes and sunset hues — all inspired by his home country of Brazil.
The collection of jersey and crepe pieces — titled Francisco Costa For Calvin Klein — will be priced from $135 to $180 and is part of the retailer's "A Magical Journey to Brasil" Spring initiative. "The collection really represents Calvin Klein; its really light, its really well-made, and the price is really right." Costa told us. "It's always a challenge but very exciting to design within a different block. It's good that we can bring our collection product to a much larger audience."
Francisco Costa For Calvin Klein hits Macy's and macys.com May 15. Click through for a peek at pieces from the collection.

Marchesa Confirms Plan For Contemporary Line
"We have always had a vision for Marchesa to be a lifestyle brand," Designer Georgina Chapman explained. "We have been so specific for such a long time, and the idea to broaden out to a different consumer, and to our same consumer as well." Chapman also added that she was "hoping Marchesa will have something to offer that is very different from what's on the floor at present."
At left, Siri Tollerod models a look from Marchesa Fall 2012.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to Design Lingerie Line
The 33-piece capsule collection, titled Rosie For Autograph, will include everything from lingerie sets, camisoles, and a kimono-style silk robe. Some of the pieces will be covered in a rose print, while others will feature art deco patterns.
"M&S is an iconic British brand, adored by many so I'm very excited to be launching my debut lingerie line with them," she said. "I thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with the design team to create my dream collection and I'm looking forward to a fun and creative time ahead."
Huntington-Whiteley isn't the only model with a lingerie line — Gisele Bundchen launched Gisele Bundchen Intimates in May and Bar Refaeli started marketing her basics line under.me in April.
In the past, Huntington-Whiteley has worked for Victoria's Secret and Burberry, among other brands. She's the current face of Marks & Spencer's Autograph line and starred in its Fall campaign alongside actor Ryan Reynolds.

Anonymous Coward, Jul 24th, 2012 @ 7:53pmAt one time regimes like Assad's could shut the borders down and be reasonably sure that they were controlling the flow of information by the judicious use of censorship and adopting the Goebbels way of propaganda and terror to keep the subject people in line. The Internet has changed all that. While states like Syria can shut the internet down there are alternatives such as Blackberry's own mail servers and PIN messaging that don't use the Internet meaning that rebel communication continues while holes are poked in the official firewall from both inside and out.
It doesn't work when a determined populace fights back with all the technical tools and smarts at their disposal. And have more skills and ability than the regime that oppresses them.[ reply to this | link to this | view in thread ]

Go ahead and tell us all about the poor suffering Al Qaeda gunmen who have been co-opting this "revolution" from the very start. Just like they did in Libya, and just like they're doing in Iraq.
While you're stumbling around blind as a bat, be sure to explain how the US has any credibility claiming they have no idea whether or not the proxy army THEY created which has flown flags over government buildings in EVERY country they've overthrown since 2003, is actually involved with the "Free Syrian Army".

Syria closes down its own internet services
An amazing coincidence. Syria shuts itself down, at the very time when external forces are trying to carry out the same thing! See: http://thetruthserumblog.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/the-media-war-on-syria-hitting-high-gear.html[ reply to this | link to this | view in thread ]
Q�r Tharkasd�ttir, Jul 25th, 2012 @ 1:44amMike, as much as I like you and your endeavour... there's much, much more to what's going on in Syria than meets the eye���as has been the case in Lybia or about anywhere the would-be masters of the world are pushing their dirty agendas. For starters, a few days ago:
http://www.voltairene t.org/NATO-preparing-vast-disinformation
In the light of this, who is anyone to tell that it's actually the Syrian government that's behind whatever happened?[ reply to this | link to this | view in thread ]
Mike, i'm sorry, but obviously you didn't pay attention to what was happening in Lybia. It wasn't an uprising. I don't know what's up with Syria as i haven't been watching closely, but Lybia was a completely different scenario from Egypt.[ reply to this | link to this | view in thread ]

It's real war Mike
It doesn't matter whether Syria turns internet on or off. What matter, is whether one side can kill enough people on the other.
It's not facebook-type "protest" - but real, full-blown civil war.[ reply to this | link to this | view in thread ]

Civil War
Let's see here, Syria says it is targeting militants, yet they blatently fire upon the civilian population. The Iraqi refugees from Saddam Hiesein's reign of terror noted that similar tactics were used by Saddam Husein himself to hide the practices of his regime. There were daily showings if beheadings and dismemberment of "dissidents" over the state controlled media.
Now these tactics aren't as similar as what happened to Iraq, but then again, Saddam Husein was known to use nerv gas on an entire population of his own people.[ reply to this | link to this | view in thread ]

"Although these are not an exact replica of the famous candies, they are delicious just the same. Letting the dough rest for a few minutes after kneading may make rolling easier." — Diane A.
Watch video tips and tricks
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
1/2 cup light corn syrup
3 cups confectioners' sugar, divided
3/4 cup powdered milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
These were pretty good. I had a problem because the first time I made them the powdered milk stayed in flakes and it looked like moldy tootsie rolls. So the next time I crushed them a little finer and it worked much better.
The kids ate it because they made it and it was chocolate, but the flavor and consistency was like soft, generic fudge. Quick and easy, but not something I'll make again.
9 Ratings
Pretty good, although I would say the texture is much closer to fudge; they don't stick to your teeth like Tootsie Rolls! I didn't use up quite all the powdered sugar before the dough got too hard to work with, so I would say go scant on the last cup and add more only if you need to.
I made these candies to put in baskets for the ones with sweet tooths...didn't last the evening before they were ALL gone!
The dough didn't work out for me. I was watery and sticky.

Revamp Your Hosting Reel - With Mark Turner of Abrams Artists Agency
Written by: Kelly Calabrese Hello! And welcome to Revamp Your Hosting Reel. I'm
your writer, Kelly Calabrese. Today, I'll be revealing all the nitty-gritty
details about what agents look for in hosting reels with insight from our
expert - agent, Mark Turner. As part of a visionary team in the the Host/Broadcast Division of Abrams Artists Agency, Mark Turner represents quality hosts, anchors and reporters for all areas of reality based television in both NY & LA with a specialization in pitching and packaging TV shows. By the end of today's article, NYCastings members will have all the knowledge they need to make or make-over their hosting reels. So, let's get started! Tell me Mark... Q: What are your overall expectations when viewing a hosting reel in terms of content, length, variety... As a general rule, it has to show off a person, their personality. A good demo reel can be three minutes in length, with different looks, edited in a way that you are not on one segment too long. And, if someone is an expert, make sure you are showcasing your knowledge in your area of expertise. But most important, is personality. The reel should grab the viewer right off the bat. Q: How long should each segment be? Pretty quick. I wouldn't stay on any one clip for more than ten seconds. To clarify, this is for hosting reels, not news reels. News reels are a different story. For hosting reels, I would not have an interview go on for a minute straight. You can do more than ten seconds of an interview, but cut it up where you see bits and pieces rather the whole interview straight. Q: You mentioned having "different looks" on the reel - What do you mean by that? It means that the reel should show diversity. It can have an interview bit, a straight-to-the- camera bit, an in-the-field bit. Show different sides of who you are. It should be diverse in showing your qualities and attributes. It doesn't have to do with what you look like or wear. When you interview someone in a field - that is a look. Reading from a teleprompter- is a look. You should show all sides of your personality... being comedic, being serious. Be versatile. Q: What stands out to you on a hosting reel? I would use the term charisma. A sense of humor. You need to be a big personality without coming across as phony, or unnatural. Or else it looks forced. Q: When watching a reel, how long does it take for you to spot the kind of charisma you want to represent? Very quickly. Within the first 30 seconds. Q: What are some common mistakes that one can avoid on a hosting reel? I see people putting things on their hosting reel that shouldn't be there - like commercials or infomercials or something that looks really homemade. In today's world, the video has to look professional. It can't look like you made it in your basement. Q: Since having a niche is important in hosting - How should a reel showcase a niche if the host has one? If you are solely an expert, say someone is a scientist, then their reel should be solely about that. However, if someone has multiple areas of expertise, they should make it metered to that. So... If someone is a general host and also a real estate expert, they should make a general reel and a real estate specific reel. These days, we want to be as specific as possible. Q: If a person has a niche and wants to become a host in it - does a self-made reel interest you even if the person as no actual hosting experience? It does. And the reel doesn't have to be perfectly professional but it can't look so homemade. Q: When creating a reel to specifically showcase a niche, can the reel have one sample clip /show or should it have several, quick moving segments as you mentioned earlier? The model should be the same as for a hosting reel. Q: If an actor has hosted for industrials, should they include that on the reel? Truthfully, I don't do many industrials. That tends to be much more straight-laced. Infomercials don't usually showcase a lot of your personality. If someone sends me an industrial reel, it is not usable for getting most jobs. You might want to put some of your industrial work on your reel, if it shows a different side of your personality. But in general, industrials tend to be more on the serious side. Q: Should a host keep in mind a target audience that they hope to host for? I think you just want to be who you are. Be authentic. Q: Any advice on how an actor can sharpen their hosting skills? You can take classes to help you with interviewing and teleprompter, but hosting is something that you either have the personality for or you don't. It is hard to teach charisma. The best hosts are the ones who are most comfortable in their skin. Q: Once a person peeks your interest with a reel, what should they expect when they meet with you? They should be themselves. Have a conversation as opposed to an interview. Tell me who you are, what you do and have a realistic understanding of the types of shows you are right for. Never say, "I will do anything." Realize what your strengths are and tell me why you are right for certain shows. Q: What types of hosts are trending right now? Outdoors. Survivalist. Military. Therapists. Scientists. The auction collectable space. Therapy. Parenting. Tech. Q: What does it take to break into entertainment, food or travel? The kind of hosting gigs that everyone seems to want to get into. Well, that is the million dollar question. When you talk about fashion and food, those are crowded spaces. They have been done extensively. To break in, a lot of it is based on personality - what you have that is not already out there. And success. A major chef, who has written books and owns major restaurants, is going to go a lot further than someone who just graduated culinary school. Q: How hands-on are you with your client's reels? We don't create reels here. We advise as to what should and shouldn't be on one and refer hosts to editors. Q: Do you watch non solicited reels? I look at everything. Q: How do you prefer to see hosting reels? Online, DVD? Online links. Vimeo and YouTube are ideal Q: What is the most rewarding part of representing hosts? When someone works hard, is marketable, and I am able to book them on something - that is very rewarding. It makes me proud. Well... I'm proud to share this advice with NYCastings! Thank you so much for joining us, Mark. For more info on Mark Turner and Abrams Artists Agency, check out abramsartists.com |

2 RGB outputs...
I want something that I can plug three RGB devices into and have two RGB outputs. Is there anything out there that can do this well?
I don't really want to be spending more than £250 if its an AV receiver, I could really do with some kind of hub device.
Thanks for any help!
I think, provided you don't need to be able to view any one of the three sources on either output at the same time, that this might do the trick, in that it has four Scart ins and two outputs for about £60.
Or from the same brand you could use one of these and one of these to give you four in/four out capability for about £70 all-in.
Thanks for the reply.
I already have a device for scart I/O. I need one that has 3 Red, Green, Blue inputs and two RGB outputs.
On standard phono sockets?
Yes. I have found AV recievers with three RGB inputs but only one output. I have three devices on RGB (DVD, 360, PC) and I want all three to output to my TV using RGB and to my projector using RGB.
Does that make sense?
When you mentioned RGB I automatically assumed you meant RGB video signals and thus Scarts. I think we're talking component video, on red/blue/green plugs.
This will do it, for about £125 delivered in the UK. 4 in, 2 out, with pushbuttons on the front panel and remote control.

Lycos Different Than Alltheweb
Posted 22 September 2003 - 10:22 PM
I read that Lycos was going to be showing many LookSmart results and it appears that they are.
The first page of results (at least for search engine optimization) are apparently all paid ads (although not marked that way) and the 2nd page is where the real results begin. The second page is more like what you see on AllTheWeb's first page of result.
Apparently, they don't have enough sponsored ads at the top (6!), so they have to show even more (without marking them) in the actual search results.
Am I the only one who is bothered by the fact that users are being deceived into thinking the results at the search engine are algorithmically produced, not simply paid for?

5-Step Runway Looks: Red Smoky Eyes at Charlotte Ronson
To us, experimenting with eye shadow usually includes dabbling in brights like turquoise and violet, or maybe using a blue mascara (to enhance the whites of our eyes). These hues however would be a snooze fest for the makeup artists backstage at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. Just ask Gilbert Soliz, a lead artist for Sephora PRO who opted to create a red smoky eye with brown-based pencils for Charlotte Ronson's Fall 2011 collection.
We know what you're thinking: red hues around the eyes are usually the result of a poor night's sleep or a mean case of allergies. But as we learned from Soliz, the shade can be quite wearable and surprisingly flattering. Here are his five tips for pulling it off.
1. Use a combination of colors. Soliz actually used lip liners (Sephora Collection Nano Lip Liner in Beau Bordeaux and Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencil in Chocolate Brown) in place of eye shadow. One reason was because the formulas of these lip pencils blended easier, the other was because they stayed creamy throughout the wear. He smeared the pencils on his hand first, and then mixed.
2. Be a blending master. Using his fingers first and then a fluffy eye shadow brush, Soliz blended a wash of color over the model's lids and out past the corners of the eyes. Like any smoky eye, getting the color to fall in all the right places is key.
3. Tone down your eyeliner. Rather than drawing a line from the inner to the outer corner of the eye, Soliz took Make Up For Ever Aqua Eye in Pearly Brown and dotted it along the lash lines. This effect made the overall eye a bit softer and "less perfect," as Soliz said.
4. Keep the rest of your makeup simple. When working with such a unique eye color, you don't want to overdo your complexion with blush and bronzer. Soliz finished off lashes with Dior DiorShow Mascara in Black. Next he applied Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer and YSL Touch Eclat to skin, then contoured the hallows of the cheeks with Make Up For Ever Sculpting Kit.
5. Pay attention to your arches. Well-groomed brows are a must for any makeup look, so he shaded in sparse areas using Dior DiorShow Brow Ultra-Fine Precision Brow Pencil. A good rule of thumb when filling in your brows: Go by the color of your hair and choose one shade lighter. That hue will create the shadow effect that your brows need to look natural.
Check out the final look on the model below. Not so intimidating, right? You can layer on as much or as little color as you want, or switch out these red-based browns for a brown with plum in it.
Tell us: Would you try this red-based eye the next time you're going out?

It Used to Be Paradise - 11/17/2006 I was raised in Mill Valley and lived there or nearby for 30+ years. I always thought it was paradise until it got too expensive. Former celebrities, former dot-com gazillionaires and yuppies ruined it. It doesn't seem fair but it seems more middle-class, native Californians like me have to live elsewhere to survive. I had to move out-of-state to find an affordable place to live. I sure miss it but not the Rat Race it's become![read more...]
Mill Valley - 8/19/2005 Mill Valley is beautiful. The two problems with it are: Too expensive for the average citizen to live, and a bit snooty. Mill Valley is located in Marin County which is known for great schools, liberal attitude, and the beautiful land. Marin definately has all of these, but lacks diversity (both ethnically and socioeconomically). From my experience Mill Valley specifically has proven that the rich stay rich, and the poor must find elsewhere to live...[read more...]

If you haven't heard of Nicole Chavez before, you definitely know her list of famous clients: Rachel Bilson, Kristen Bell, Jessica Simpson, Nikki Reed, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. And she "just started working with Reese Witherspoon a little bit." Last night at the LOFT Summer collection preview in LA, we got a chance to catch up with the superstar stylist — clad in this fabulous floral henley blouse ($60). Aside from inspiring this affordable Spring purchase, Nicole doled out her expert seasonal styling tips, the answer to what every girl needs in her closet this season, and what she would wear with a few of our favorite pieces (like a floral miniskirt and white pumps).
POPSUGAR: What are some essential pieces that every girl needs in her closet for Spring?
Nicole Chavez: For Spring, I'm all about the bold palette. I just think that bright, punchy colors are the way to go this Spring. You can do it head-to-toe brights or you can mix it up and do something like what I'm wearing, which is just a punch of color and something neutral. Another one of my favorite trends for Spring was that black and white, really graphic — we saw polka dots, we saw stripes, we saw the checks. That's a really easy trend that you can incorporate day to night.
PS: Any Spring color combinations that you really love?
NC: I'm a really big fan of hot pink and nude. There's another combination that was a LOFT combo that I really loved, which is their really punchy yellow blazer paired with black and white stripes. People would normally think bumblebee, but they have this really great neon yellow.
More from Nicole, including Rachel Bilson's favorite brands.

I am so with you on that. I can just see the f-in idiots who cast this shit and have never even read a f-ing comic having conversations about shi* they don't even really know about - "I know lets get the guy who played human torch to play captain america". "I mean cap and torch are alike in terms of physicality, and personality right?"
"Come to think of it, we should have gotten Chris Evans to play Thor too. Ryan Reynolds could have been Loki. Or maybe Evans should be Loki and Reynolds Thor. Or would Reynolds make a better Odin and Evans could play Heimdall. No we have Idris Elba playing Heimdall. Yeah, maybe we should have Evans play Sif, I mean who says Sif HAS to be a woman right. Yeah that's a great idea. - 7:41 PM

The actor dressed in Johnny Depps Pirate avatar danced like his father, Jeetendra in his upcoming film.
Actor Tushar Kapoor got into the Pirates of the Carribbean avatar for the title song of his upcoming film, Hum Tum Shabana. The title song for the film, in which Tusshar tries to woo Minissha Lamba, the female lead, has been picturised on a beach and Tusshar is dressed as Johnny Depp, in his Pirates avatar. However, the twist in the tale in that the actor shakes a leg ala Jeetendra, his father, in the Johnny Depp look. Sources claim that the audience on the beach thought it was indeed Johnny Depp who was dancing like the Jumping Jack Jeetendra.

Wow...........where to start?? I am not sure if there is a perfect rig for you but i would consider a small Cat like twin v, this would provide a stable platform with a shallow draft and the ability to run in some rough conditions........
Sorry if I post twice with a similar thread, tried to post once and it didn't.
Anyways, I have a late model bass boat, it's my 3rd. I've been bass fishing the tributaries hardcore for the last 20yrs. I'm getting bored.... I almost feel like I've mastered it, and catching 3lb fish on average with a big river fish going 7lbs is cool, but I could be catching 30" fish a lot, at least it seems. I don't want to give up bass fishing all together, I just want to have a more "bay" worthy boat. I live 5 minutes from the bay, and 15 from the bridge in central AA Co, but I end up towing the bass boat to either Charles County to fish the potomac, or up to the flats to fish susky and the ne.... I once in a blue moon get to enjoy the bridge area of the bay, but I honestly spend $60 a trip just in fuel for the truck, while departing from one of the best areas of the bay. I've been fishing the flats a lot the last few weeks enjoying the spring rocks and it's a blast.
I know I would be more of a LT guy, but at the same time I don't want to rule out some trolling. I've been on charters trolling before, and it's fun, but it wouldn't be my preferred style of fishing, and I like to fish solo a lot as it's my escape from reality. I also don't want to give up the TM on the bow as I still would like to venture to the rivers once in a blue moon to get some bass fishing in... and I also want to be able to go to the CBBT in the winter, and once in a great while, meaning once a year if the conditions are right go offshore... I know I am asking for the perfect boat, however there has to be something...
On my current short list is:
Young 24
Triton 240LTS
Ranger Bay Boats (probably to much $ for what it is)
Charger 223
Basscat Bay Cat
I am open to other suggestions though, as I am not real familiar with the options as I have never seriously looked. I know a flats skiff would fill the bass fishing and "some" salt, but it wouldn't be the most pratical. I know a deep gunnel CC would rock on the bay and some light offshore, but it would suck in the rivers bass fishing... sssooo...
Wow...........where to start?? I am not sure if there is a perfect rig for you but i would consider a small Cat like twin v, this would provide a stable platform with a shallow draft and the ability to run in some rough conditions........
I was once in your shoes, but have learned that you do not need a TM on the Bay. You control your drift by using your power motor by turning it one way or the other when the power is off.I also don't want to give up the TM on the bowI recommend a boat that is 21 or larger and seaworthy.and I also want to be able to go to the CBBT in the winterIts a good idea to have 2 motors on your new boat..conditions are right go offshoreNot really, but you cant have my boat. It will take me in 14 of water or offshore safely.I know I am asking for the perfect boat, however there has to be something...
Perfect boat is a 22ft Pathfinder with a 200 or 250 hp motor equiped with trim tabs. I ran all over the bay with that rig which included a 100lb MK trolling motor. I now live in Florida and fish off shore or inshore , my boat drafts 11in. We fish lake Okeechobee and it becomes the perfect bass boat with 115 gallons of livewells or fish for Snook and Tarpon in the rivers.
Retired to Palm Beach Florida fishing offshore out of a 27 ft. custom Blackhawk CC twin 200 etecs. My heart is still in lower Dorchester county, miss my ersters and crabs, don't miss the skeeters.
I can't say for the other boats, but I have some experience on a Triton 240LTS. I enjoyed it alot.
Could definitely troll it on decent days, better in rough water than I expected, and generally just a fun boat to fish off of.
Doing a buddy plan I'd have no issues making runs offshore.
I know of at least one guy that charters on a 240 here in the Bay, so maybe a trip with him might prove helpful.
Best of luck in your search.
Ya need at least 3 boats.
Why mess with those freshwater boats?
Get a real saltwater boat.

Which one is the real saltwater boat, Kevin - the Parker or the Grady next to it ?
Ralph M.
Trophy 2002WA / 150HP Merc
Some may know what my answer will be.
I have walked the path you are on, knew what I wanted while still keeping my eyes and options open, and this is where it led.
I am VERY happy with it.
The only thing that could be icing on the cake, would be, the Gen II 300hp and a jack plate.
The 300 isn't really necessary and I wouldn't gain that much from it but the JP will be worth it.
I fish it the same way I did My Stratos 201 Pro and then some.
No problem easing down the bank throwing a spinnerbait or flippin a worm for bass or catching YP in January not to mention chasing stripers any way you like em.
Lots of room, more stable, easier on my back when running in the sloppy stuff, gunnel rod storage as well as rod lockers, walkable gunnels, loads of storage, 2 humongous live wells, 1 bait well, 5 batteries, 101 lb thrust TM, trim tabs, 100% salt water ready, etc...
Boat= 2450 lb.
engine= 650 lb.
79 gallons of fuel= 500 lbs+/-
fishing gear= ?
fishing partners= ?
I tow it with a 96 Ford E150 Chateau, 5.8L (175,000 miles) and launch it by myself all the time.
I'll be on the Flats tomorrow if you would like to see it.

TUESDAY, May 22 (HealthDay News) -- The number of liver transplants in the United States has decreased since 2006, a new study finds.
Researchers said one reason for the decline is that harvesting livers after cardiac death has become more commonplace, and many of those livers end up being discarded after doctors determine the organs aren't healthy enough to attempt a transplant. Another reason livers are discarded is because of damage due to a condition known as fatty liver disease, which is associated with metabolic syndrome and high cholesterol.
Researchers analyzed data from the United Network for Organ Sharing to assess factors that prompted doctors to discard a donated liver.
With standard donation, a patient is declared brain dead and kept on cardiovascular support so the organs continue to receive oxygen and blood until they are removed for transplant.
In recent years, there has been increasing use of donor organs after cardiac death. In these cases, organs are harvested for transplant after a patient dies and the heart stops on its own. This type of organ donation is promoted as a way to increase the total number of organs available for transplant, and now accounts for 12 percent of organ donations, compared with fewer than 2 percent less than 10 years ago.
Doctors are becoming increasingly reluctant to use organs donated after cardiac death, however, according to the study, which is scheduled to be presented Tuesday at the Digestive Disease Week meeting in San Diego.
The researchers found that the total number of donors who have at least one organ recovered for transplant has stopped increasing over the past few years, despite an increasing proportion of organs donated after cardiac death.
"Cardiac death donation is negatively impacting the overall number of liver transplants that we can do," study leader Dr. Eric Orman, a gastroenterology fellow at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, said in a meeting news release.
He and his colleagues also found that donor characteristics associated with a condition called fatty liver -- including diabetes, obesity, old age and high blood pressure -- all were associated with discarding a donated liver.
Because this study was presented at a medical meeting, the data and conclusions should be viewed as preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Step 2: Once dry, quickly roll two-inch sections of hair onto large Velcro rollers before hair cools from the blow dryer. Allow to set for 10 minutes and then unwind the rollers.
Step 3: Dab styling cream on your fingertips and run them through the ends to create soft definition.

New Goals and Priorities Unveiled
The University of Georgia's J.W. Fanning Institute for Leadership Development announces its 2013-2014 goals and priorities. Fanning's mission will focus on leadership development in three primary areas: community, non-profit organizations and professional associations, and youth. For each area, training and technical assistance will be designed and delivered that specifically aims to develop leaders who can implement sustainable solutions to community challenges.
Community leadership programs will aim to strengthen the capacity of local leaders to address community issues and will help establish a pipeline of emerging leaders. Nonprofit leadership development training and technical assistance will prepare effective leaders, managers and professional staff in the nonprofit sector, which provides employment to one out every 20 paid workers in the state. Youth leadership development programs will help underrepresented populations and at-risk youth meet the challenges of adolescence and adulthood.
In addition to setting the programmatic focus, new mission, vision, and value statements, as well as operating priorities, were outlined. In fall 2012, the Institute was renamed to better communicate its focus on leadership development, coinciding with the naming of Matt Bishop as the new director.
