THE CURRENT CINEMA review of "John Carter" and "The Deep Blue Sea." The season of quarter-billion-dollar movies has kicked off with a mess. Andrew Stanton's "John Carter," based on an ancient novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, begins with a battle on Mars, or Barsoom, as Burroughs calls it—a battle between two warring cities populated by humanoid figures, the gentle Heliumites and the nasty Zodangans. Immediately, we're lost. Who are these people? Why do the warriors fight with swords while winged battle cruisers rain down death from above? Andrew Stanton, who directed two Pixar classics, "Finding Nemo" and "WALL-E," has given moviegoers as much pleasure as anyone in Hollywood in the past two decades. But, working with live action, Stanton tries to do everything at once. By the end of the picture's opening weekend, the press was already hailing a bomb in the legendary class of "Howard the Duck," "Ishtar," "Heaven's Gate," and "Dune." Terence Rattigan's play "The Deep Blue Sea," from 1952, has now been turned into a sombre and powerful movie by the director Terence Davies. The heroine, the fortyish Hester Collyer (Rachel Weisz), has left her husband, a rich, distinguished barrister (Simon Russell Beale), and is living in a dreary bed-sit in London with a former R.A.F. pilot, Freddie Page (Tom Hiddleston). It's 1950, and dashing Freddie is still (in his head) caught up in the excitement of the war. He's no more than intermittently employed and often drunk. Yet he electrifies Hester, who loves him passionately. Davies embraces Hester's suffering without irony, and Rachel Weisz, with her downward-turning mouth and anxious smile, is extremely moving.

With the cost of manufacture for a standard G200 die reaching up to US $110, thanks to yields as low as 40 per cent, NVIDIA seems to be in a rush for a 55nm revamp of its current GPUs. While nothing revolutionary is on the cards, and with 55nm G92b already in the making, NVIDIA plans to revamp its G200 graphics processors to the 55nm fab process, increasing yields up to 50 per cent. At 55nm, the G200 die will be effectively reduced to 470 sq. mm, implies 120 dice on a 300mm wafer. The pace at which things are moving is having the partners red-eyed. NVIDIA's new Unilateral Minimum Advertised Price Policy (UMAP) has limited partners' playing field and minimizes competition between them. When NVIDIA at the same time decides to launch new cards based on existing cores, at lower prices, partners get upset over diminishing earnings. Add to that AMD's new RV770 chip is looking very tempting to some of these partners. Source: NordicHardware
It costs so much already for partners to purchase the chips from Nvidia, and Nvidia forces the partners to drive their costs down-what AMD said about Nvidia's monolithic faliure was right... 470sqmm is STILL huge.
YEAH!!! everyone sell ATi lol nvidia controls too much and might actually hurt itself in the long run ...
Not bad....BFG HD4870 OC2....on a BFG 790 FX board But yes, merely shrinking everything to 55nm wouldn't help them much. It can only send costs down (which it hasn't, 9800 GTX+ costs more than the virgin GTX). They need a something with 144/160/172 SP's.
I find it downright ridiculous that despite knowing that HD4870 beats (or equals) the GTX 260, they continue to price it $399, and upto $459 for factory OC-ed variants.
this explains why companies like gainward are becoming neutral, as they transition over to ati cards.
Isn't everything about a competitive business market at a 'rush' pace? Crack the whip Nvidia, bring on the 55nm. Because they can 'afford' to, even if the ratio to ATi card sale(s) is low. ATi has a lot of catching up to do both financially and in resources.
Now for ATI to "FINISH HIM!", they need a strategy to ingratiate themselves to game developers with this awesome hardware (a'la TWIWMTBP). With the numbers RV770 is able to produce (across OGL, DX9, DX10) it should happen rather quickly.
One of the prime factors that has NV's partners pissed is the UMAP. Tier-I partners such as BFG, XFX, EVGA make the most, while smaller ones like Zotac, Zogis, Sparkle, are hit worse. We even saw Palit_Guy all red-eyed about this. Thankfully Palit can always prioritize on ATI products.
I 100% agree. Timing is perfect right now for ATI to fire up their own campaign like what nVidia has with TWIMTBP, and I'd fathom to say many game devs would hop on rather quickly . . . and if ATI could garner more developer support pushing DX10.1, it would truly make things interesting. the only wrench in the works is probably the amount of money nVidia offer development teams as well, which is something ATI can't really do to a similar extent. But, we've got some big league titles scheduled for this year, that are rumored to have DX10 support . . . prime crop for ATI to hop on the ball and help them impliment DX10.1 . . . STALKER: Clear Sky, (FEAR) Project Origin and Splinter Cell: Convictions are all slated for late Q3/Q4 release. Seeing ATI work with these teams would be a big bonus to coincide with the flagship 4870x2 release.
Its a bit ridiculous the way Nvidia does business. I hope they make a decent turn around with this. I wouldnt Want ATI to be the only gpu maker out there (not likely to happen, but you get my point)
It's terrible as it is but NV has to find out that they can't continue to sell their junk for so much. When the g200b GTX280 or whatever comes out it'll probably cost just as much as the 65nm GTX280. The performance will be improved but it will still cost too much. Mix that in with UMAP & I can see why distros have a problem with them. When it comes down to it, do ppl realy buy overpriced, undervalued cards, especially when there's something out there that costs $100 less & beats it. An e-penis can only get so big.
They might want to recover their profits, don't expect the G200 (55nm) to bring down prices. At most, expect a $350 GTX 260 for obvious reasons that the $299~$310 HD4870 walks all over it.
well im still thinking Nvidia has a few tricks left, honestly look who where dealing with, look at advertisment. Also Nvidia won't be Finaccaly hurt as terrible as you assume. Under 200 bucks which is also the biggest market availble. The 9600GT/8800GT sell for 50 less than the 4850 and out preform the 3870, below that we have the 8600GT and 8500GT which are going in alot of cheap PC's. Add in the mobile grahpics for desktop replacements and and cheap PC's
Sure there are offerings from NV that have retreated to the $150 bar, but the whole world knows that for just $199 you get kickass smashass card that can scale upto four GPUs. So you can buy a CFX board, keep adding a card whenever feasible and end up with a strong GP-sub system. Kids don't need to sell crack to buy a solid graphics card anymore, their X-Mas income + Mr. Wilson's lawn income would suffice.

Cards & Games
Pick & Pack

A two player game where you pick and pack apples into crates - the catch is the mechanical arm is broken and you control the arm going vertically while the other player controls its horizontal movement.

Players move a pawn horizontally and vertically along rows, picking the apples they want or using a special action like Rush Order (giving you an extra turn) or Premium (making one of your crates worth double).

Contents:

60 tiles

1 pawn

1 board

Number of players: 2
Ages: 8+
Playing time: 20 minutes

Bridge Troll
$19.99
In BRIDGE TROLL, you and your friends are hideous trolls who each guard a troll bridge. Each turn, you throw boulders to bid for travelers, who vary in number depending on the weather for that day.

Travelers include fat merchants, pilgrims, poor monks (who make good eating), and if you are lucky, royal personages. As travelers come to your bridge, you use them to collect tolls. But watch out! Knights, bandits, dragons, and vicious Billy Goats Gruff prowl the countryside. You'll have to use some of your boulders to chase them away (which means you'll have fewer left to use on your bridge!).

Although you need to collect tolls from travelers so you can buy building supplies, working on your bridge makes you hungry, so you will have to eat some of your travelers instead. It is important to balance tolls with food in order to make your bridge very appealing to travelers. If you eat too many travelers or just collect money, you won't be able to fix up your bridge. The player who uses toll-money,
food, and boulders to build the most impressive troll bridge operation wins the game.

Contents: 6 Troll Bridge Boards, 54 Boulders (wood cubes), 53 Traveler Cards, 15 Bridge Upgrade Cards, 4 Travel Schedules, 6 Trophy Tiles, 6 Rules Summary Cards, 1 Weather Die, Rulebook, and Scoring Markers.

No. of players: 3-6

In Agricola (Latin for "farmer"), you're a farmer in a wooden shack with your spouse and little else. On a turn, you get to take only two actions, one for you and one for the spouse, from all the possibilities you'll find on a farm: collecting clay, wood or stone; building fences; and so on. You might think about having kids in order to get more work accomplished, but first you need to expand your house. And what are you going to feed all the little rugrats?

Agricola is a turn-based game. There are 14 game turns plus 6 harvest phases (after turn 4, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 14). Each player starts with two playing tokens (farmer and wife) and thus can take two actions per turn. There are multiple options, and while the game progresses, you'll have more and more: first thing in a turn, a new action card is flipped over.

Problem: Each action can be taken just once per turn, so it's important to do some things with high preference. Each player also starts with a hand of 7 Occupation cards (of more than 160 total) and 7 Minor Improvement cards (of more than 140 total) that he may use during the game if they fit in his/her strategy. This amounts to countless strategies, some depending on your card hand. Sometimes it's a good choice to stay on course, sometimes you better react on what your opponents do.

Agricola can also be played without cards (family game) and can even be played solo.

Contents: 360 cards, over 300 wooden components, 50+ tiles, 9 boards, tokens, scoring pad.
No. of players: 1-5
Ages: 12+
Playing time: 120-180 minutes

Europe, 1347. A disaster is about to strike. The Black Death reaches Europe, and during the next 4 - 5 years, the population of Europe will be halved. The players settle in the various regions of Europe, while the plague spreads throughout all of the continent. The players gain help from the various classes of the middle ages: The Peasants provide population growth, the wise Monks keep the rats away, the rich Merchants flee when the plague approaches, the warfare conducted by the Knights spreads the plague to new areas, the Witches control the spread through magic and witchcraft, whereas the Kings avoid the plague by staying in their fortified palaces. But the plague does not make any distinction: When the rats arrive, no one can feel safe. When the plague withdraws and the game ends, the player with the highest surviving population wins.

Contents: board, board, 49 rat tokens, 80 wooden cubes, 1 Plague pawn, 6 character cards, rules

Ages: 10+

Update 06/04/2012: For those looking, I have just recently compared PDF Expert, iAnnotate & Goodreader here. It's more indepth than this review.
As promised, here is a comparison between the two infamous PDF Editing apps for the iPad – PDF Expert and iAnnotate. I also wrote about them briefly in my earlier post here.
I know it has been a while since I have last written – I feel as though I can unbiased-ly (couldn't think of the correct term for this) compare PDF Expert with iAnnotate now, after having used iAnnotate and PDF Expert for an equal period of time. Let me quickly list the pros and cons of each so it's not so tediously long for either of us!

The Salathe Wall is an incredible route with lots of infamous wide cracks. The climb might be the longest route on El Cap at 35 pitches. There are many great ledges on this route, so consider leaving the portaledge at home. A common strategy is to either pre-haul to Heart Ledges, or rap once you get there and haul the next day. Four fixed lines bring you back to the ground. I wouldn't recommend hauling the free blast because it traverses a lot, is low angle, and will have the biggest crowds of the route. This climb breaks up nicely into several days worth of climbing. The first logical block is the Free Blast, which consists of the first 10 pitches of the route. Most of this can be free climbed for a 5.10 trad leader, and can be done fairly quickly. The climbing is low angle in comparison with the rest of the route, with a thrutch up the half dollar chimney on pitch 8. The free blast will leave you on top of Mammoth Terraces (where the Shield and Muir Wall diverge). From here, rap off the left side about 200 feet to Heart Ledges. From Heart, some non-obvious climbing leads up to Lung Ledge. Scramble up this ledge system until near its left end and set a belay. The next pitch is the hollow flake, with a pretty big pendulum required to gain the start of the flake. The lower part of this pitch can take a #6 camalot, but it can't be left because it gets too wide before you are above your pendulum point. The upper part of the hollow flake is extremely run out. This pitch ends up on the spacious hollow flake ledge (not a bad place for 2 people to sleep). From here, the route becomes a lot more plum, with a ton of traversing up to this point. A difficult chimney pitch right off of hollow flake ledge leads to two straight forward pitches. Above that is the other well known pitch of the route, the Ear. This pitch climbs into an overhanging bombay chimney. As you climb higher, it keeps getting narrower, until you have to chimney outwards and possibly remove your helmet. This pitch has good gear. Another pitch leads up to the Alcove, a great bivy ledge. From the back of the Alcove, a chimney leads to the coolest bivy spot ever, El Cap Spire. This spire is flat and airy, is big enough for a tent, and is detached on all sides. It is a big step across to gain the next crack system. Sleep here and enjoy it because the ledges are quite a bit worse above. A few more pitches of aid continue up, with a squeeze through a 5.9 chimney. This brings you to the base of the Sewer. This pitch almost always seeps water, and requires placing aliens in goo covered cracks. The end of this pitch is a hanging belay, so link it another short pitch length to the sloping but roomy "Block". This is an ok bivy, but you have to be creative. The climb tends diagonally up and left from here to a small ledge. the Sous Le Toit. A nice place to belay, but not a place to sleep. One long linked pitch gains the base of the roof below the headwall, where the climb gets exciting. Tackle the roof on mostly fixed gear, and continue up to a hanging belay. This jug is as airy as it gets. The headwall is split by a beautiful finger crack, which ends at Long Ledge. Long Ledge is the home stretch, and it is a very narrow ledge in a cool position. From the right side of the ledge, climb up for a few more pitches to the top.
Follow the El Cap trail to the base of the Nose. Head uphill to the left a short ways to the base of the route. The route starts up easy climbing to a ledge, then a finger crack above.
This route amazingly has very little fixed gear. There aren't even fixed anchors in many spots. 2 sets of nuts, including small HB offsets. Required cams are debatable, but a single black and blue alien (offsets useful too), double to triple set of green through red aliens, a triple set of .5 camalots through #3 camalots, two #4 camalots, and a single #5 and #6. A second in this big size would be useful, but is a tradeoff in weight.
Dan W. and Bill G. and I climbed this route over the first 3 1/2 days of May 08. On day 1 we dropped our pig at the base of the fixed lines directly below Heart Ledges. There are lines in place but they are not super awe-inspiring. We climbed Freeblast and rapped to the ground and bivied at our pig. Day 2 involved jugging and hauling to Heart ledges, and climbing to the top of El Cap spire. It was sprinkling as we ended and decided to sleep at the Alcove, which aside from the view on the spire, looked WAY more comfy that the top of the spire. Day 3 involved climbing to Long Ledges. We bivied there and this turned out to a comfortable bivy for three. My favorite bivy to date. Day 4 topped out and hiked off. Tips: 1. Aside from the Freeblast, not many anchors are solid bolts. Many are a single good bolt and gear, or old pins and gear. 2. Link a lot of pitches. Ending above the sewer are OLD 1/4 inch bolts and a totally hanging belay. If you keep going 40 more feet it is a awesome sloping ledge. 3. The pitch above the sloping ledge is sort of confusing. You take the left most crack, and pendulum at the 1st pendulum spot. The crack you are aiming for is kinda hidden but once you swing, you will find it. There is a lot of left gear higher to the right, don't go for it, it is all off route. 4. The roof pitch is all fixed, minus once cam placement which could probably be skipped. 5. The pitch off the right, east, side of Long Ledge is NOT 5.8. It starts as easy c1, but the crack ends, the pin marked on topos is missing and mandatory 5.10 climbing is present. The climbing is probably 8+ feet above you last solid cams. Drop the rack (bring a single set for the anchor and getting to it), sac it up and fire! I actually led to the free climbing, I pussed out and Bill G. made a 3 points off dyno to a sloping side pull. 6. The ear is a hard grovel put protected. Don't bring your helmet. Also, careful with you cam placements. My last one pinched the rope and I could not pull the rope, I actually backcleaned it to get to the anchor. 7. Rap, don't hike. Its a long way. Especially when you go west instead of east. Yuck. Enjoy! -Matt
Matt, you rapped the route?
No don't rap the route. Matt means find the East Ledges rappels on the other side of the Capitan.
This is one of the most awesome routes on the planet! The 95 degree headwall is an amazing stretch of stone. Drop anything here and it will free fall for like 15 seconds.
Finally climbed this a couple weeks ago and as usual El Cap doesn't disappoint. Great route with some truly classic pitches
Spent 4 nights on the route last week or so. A few additions: Rack: 1 set offset nuts (#3-11), 1 set regular nuts (#3-11), pink and red tricams, double set of the smallest cams, triple set of blue TCU to #3 camalot, double new #4 camalot, single new #5 and #6 camalot. Didn't use any cam hooks or hooks. Mostly aid climbed with moderate backcleaning. Bivies: Hollow Flake Ledge is a nice bivy with a portaledge. Alcove is plush (one 2 bolt anchor and one portaledge bolt, room for 3-4 pretty comfortably on the ground). Ended up using the sloping ledge below the Teflon Corner - decent spot if you have a ledge. The Block is as advertised - large and sloping. Hollow Flake is pretty tame as long as you focus on the climbing and not the runout. On SuperTopo's pitch 16, there's an intermediate anchor out left at a smaller than 4x3 ledge - continue to the 4x3 ledge. The Ear is fantastic - walk some big gear above your head so you're on TR for the whole pitch, and backclean it so your partner doesn't curse you while jugging this thing. Clip the bolt out right at the end for smooth rope organization. Climbing the Sewer makes it feel like you're on an adventure - relish the wetness and then enjoy the sweet handcrack corner to the block! The pitch up to Sous le Toit is a bit inobvious - after a mantle move, clip a pin which hopefully has a long piece of tat on it, then look left about 15 feet for the pendulum point. Do not get sucked up right along the beautiful flake to multiple bail slings. Up higher, there are 3 spots on the route where it felt like C2: just before the pitch 27 (SuperTopo) anchor (which you should skip and continue to just below the roof); from the protection bolt to the belay on pitch 29 (just above the roof); and a short bit just below long ledge. The pitch 34 "5.9 squeeze and C1" involved a short squeeze to good gear at the top of the chimney, then lowering out to good face holds outside the slot. Then enjoy the beautiful low angle hand crack to the top of the route! I linked pitches 34 and 35. There's a horizontal crack at the top that takes good .4, .5, and .75 camalots. Also there's a nice, flat, unprotected bivy near a tree directly above this final anchor. Enjoy!
Matt makes a good point about the climbing off of long ledge. I found it to be the crux of the route- mandatory 5.10 out of aiders. For whatever reason, moving out of aiders into free mode becomes suprisingly hard after 29 pitches or so.
Got on this for my first El Cap route last October- had to bail after getting off-route in the dark- good thing as it ended up snowing and raining all night. On P5, after the thin 10d am I missing something as to how the 3 bolts over 40 feet to the belay is aid climbing? Felt like mandatory 5.10 slab free-climbing to me. Then again it was my first aid climb, and the winds were blasting like crazy bringing in the storm. The topo I looked at says 10d or A1, and again on P6 there was spicy free climbing to a knifeblade- topo says 10b or A1. Newer topos call it C2 in both spots. My experienced partner figured it is mandatory free climbing- but I can't reconcile that with the A1/C2 rating on the topos- can anyone help?
Snowhazed, I think I remember supertopo calling it 5.11 or 5.9 AND A0. So you can do it all free at 5.11 or you can aid it and only have to pull 5.9. Where did the "R" in "5.9 C2 R" come from? Just the hollow flake?
Some beta for the pitch after Long Ledge... Unless you're pretty tall the free climbing may feel a bit desperate. If you poke about a bit you'll see where the old blade or bugaboo used to be right before the thin seam/crack slams shut....right before the free climbing starts at the top of the pitch. I was able to fiddle in an INVERTED medium sized cam-hook into this placement and then high-step onto it on a shortened sling and I could just reach the greasy, polished, sloper/side pull and then paste my feet and do the move. A taller person (I'm 5'9") would find this move pretty casual. The camhook looks super jingus, but It's bomber (for a camhook). Rock shoes help for this pitch.
FFA: Todd Skinner, Paul Piana, 1988
The more I read about some of the specific pitches that are WAY more complicated than the topo makes it sound, I seriously have to wonder: How in the world did those guys put up this route in the first place? Had to take some serious smarts and MAJOR melons!
Reading about the pitch off Long Ledge brought back memories. In 2001 we watched a leader from another team (actually a guide from another continent) totally freak on this pitch and then take a whipper. My turn to lead next - what a way to start the day. No problems for me. Also - easy to lead the hollow flake using double rope technique with some Big Bros for the 2nd lead line. I didn't mind having an extra rope. After rapping from 20 pitches up the Nose the first attempt, having an extra rope was sort of like insurance to ensure success first try on Salathe.
Climbed this at the end of June after a bail last year from the Alcove (ugh). General reactions: 1.) More aid-to-free and vice versa than I expected, but it REALLY helps in certain spots to avoid awkward aid placements. 2.) Double brass offset micronuts are great to have. I didn't have to cam hook at all, although I tried a few times. While that would probably been faster, most of the C2 sections were pretty solid with offset brass. 3.) We brought doubles in cams with several extra finger-size pieces, but had a back clean a fair amount on the headwall (the topo recommends triples). Definately go heavy on offset finger-sized cams. One set of regular nuts and one set offset regular nuts. 4.) The roof is wild, my favorite pitch on the climb! 5.) Great route, great stances, and great to have no crowds compared to the Nose. Beta as of 2013: 1.) Lung Ledge works as a bivy, but we slept on hollow flake ledge and found it was nice to have the pitch and the pendulum logistics behind first thing in the AM on day two. 2.) There is an intermediate belay on pitch 16. It's on a nice stance, but make sure you keep going 40-ish more feet to the 4x3 ledge. 3.) El cap spire is kickass. Make sure you stop here! 4.) The 5.9 squeeze on the pitch off the spire is pretty stout 5.9 w/o a ton of pro. 5.) The second part of p23 is all fixed (manky) pins save one or two placements. Free climbing at the very top of this avoids a hook move or two. Great pitch. 6.) The pitch to the sous le toit is weird. I had heard a lot about it and probably over thought it a bit but you need to pay attention, as the flake our right is very tempting. You can see slings above; this is NOT the penji point. I didn't have to truly penji at all on this pitch. Rather, head right up the corner off the belay, the flakes looked sketchy and more like 5.10. On the ledge above, pull left up on a blind arete. It demands a few moves of faith but follow the chalk. Pro isn't wonderful for the first part of this section but it gets better as you go. After a tricky mantel, there was a pin/fixed sling and straight up from there to a flake you can sling. I was able to lean way off a piece from there and get into the the final flake (this is probably where most people penji). If you aren't in free mode, it would require a few hooks between placements. It was .11a/b according to some guys who rapped in on Freerider. 7.) The anchor at the top of p27 is crap, plan to link 27/28 8.) Pitch off of long isn't bad. Bring offset brass or you will hate life. The free section felt like 5.9 with a wall rack and three days of fatigue.
My question is about the Hollow Flake pitch. If one had a Valley Giant, how high up the pitch would it be usable and which size of VG would one need. That is my question, not if it is worth carrying the thing up the route in your haulbag, or if someone should just man up and accept the runout, or if Big Bro's are lighter, cheaper, and/or better.

Have Location-Based Social Media Stalled?By Larry Mogelonsky I first wrote over a year and a half ago on how hoteliers could use Foursquare, a network experiencing exponential growth at the time. As a rising star, it was critical that hoteliers know the playing field and be ready to anticipate marketing tactics for this new channel. A lot has happened in the online realm since then, and yet it doesn't seem as though location-based social media services have flourished into the omnipotent customer influencers as previously purported. Yelp has reached critical mass. Then there are other emergent geo-social networks like MyTown, Loopt, Hotlist, Geomium, Socialight and many others either active or now defunct. There's movement, but the hype engine has stalled. However, just because location-based services aren't getting a boatload of press coverage to tout their business successes does not mean that web companies aren't hard at work to refine functionality and develop a more alluring end user experience. One bright light: Facebook. It has "Places" with its own check-in system, now fully operational and integrated into the main platform. No doubt this friend-connecting behemoth is also making good use of the Gowalla team's wisdom – a Foursquare competitor which saw key members join the Facebook banner in January 2012. One experiment in June was Facebook's Friendshake, which allowed users to find other online friends close by using the GPS technology in smartphones. This attempt was met with scorn over its privacy-invading potential and was quickly squashed, although it might reappear in another form. Elsewhere, in a rather bold move in July, Foursquare has launched their Promoted Updates services, enabling corporations to advertise to nearby customers. Like its social media brethren, Foursquare is seeking a means to monetize. It's a double-edged sword – money lets them pay more programmers to build more applications features and enrich the user experience, but advertising-laden pages may alter consumer perceptions and detract from the user experience. The bottom line: location-based services are a work in progress, but should hotels care? It depends entirely on your existing consumer base, and for the most part I can't bestow a positive endorsement for this geo-social media niche. As of now, their significance is marginal, not mainstream. Yes, location-based services are a way to reach out to new customers, but on a minute-by-minute comparison, your time would be better spent elsewhere. Going by the numbers, Foursquare (the largest geo-social network independent of any internet flagship like Google or Yahoo) currently lists over 20 million active users – big by anyone's standards, except for Twitter and Facebook which both have over 500 million. If you are scrounging for the time to manage your social media campaigns, this simple number comparison should tell you how best to allocate your resources. Second, you have to factor in the stigma associated with location-based services. Friendshake was deemed a 'stalker app'. It was toxic, highlighting people's innate aversion to making their present locations public knowledge without consent at every occasion. If geo-social networking is viewed as one more step towards decreasing personal privacy, is this something you want to wholly embrace? Next, ask yourself whether your current clientele are the types who might use location-based services. Has Facebook Places caught on amongst the baby boomers or is it more an outlet for harried, money-strapped GenXers and Millenials? Is Foursquare still primarily a tool for urbanites seeking local tips and restaurants? Your use of these avant garde technologies has to be congruent with your target audience. For instance, I don't foresee geo-social networks aligning with business trips. That is, would a surge of activity on Foursquare sway a corporate traveler to stay at one hotel versus another? Pre-established loyalty programs and company deals are two far weightier decision factors. Then again, fortune favors the bold and the creative. Perhaps Foursquare or Facebook Places could be harnessed as fun tools to revitalize a conference venue, directing businesspeople to various meetings and breakout rooms via the check-in system depending on whoever is already there. Location-based services can, however, be adequately leveraged for your F&B portfolio, as has already been demonstrated by international chains and by independent restaurants. Offer a coupon with check-in at one of your outlets. Use said coupon to highlight one or two exceptional menu items. A well-distributed article by Fast Company in tandem with APT, a research firm, cited the average revenue bump for corporate geo-social activity as hovering around 2%. So, if your goal is to marginally increase restaurant foot traffic, this strategy will work, but does this translate into increased room revenue? I'm skeptical. Location-based services haven't reached the critical mass where they're imperative marketing tools for hotels. Stay in the loop though, and I'm sure good things are coming.

The joy of sport is its hearty contempt for subjectivity
Matthew SyedRoy Hodgson must believe his England team have a chance in the World Cup even if the rest of the nation is sceptical. Asked yesterday if he would put £10 on Brazil to win the tournament, Hodgson replied: "No, I'd put it on England." Before Hodgson is accused of delusion, or is said to be suffering from heatstroke at the baking venue for this afternoon's finals draw, he was not claiming that the bookmakers have got it horribly wrong by listing England as distant outsiders at about 25-1. The England manager was, though, striking a note of optimism at a time when the expectations of supporters have never been lower. He wants the country to look forward with hope and anticipation when the balls are drawn this afternoon and England learn if they are to face Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez or perhaps Neymar in Brazil. "I'd have a chance of losing it [£10] on Brazil so why not put it on the team I want to win it?" Hodgson said, sounding determinedly bullish after so many months in which England's chances have been written off, not least by Greg Dyke, the chairman of the Football Association. "You work hard to get here, sweat a little blood and [shed] a few tears along the way and suddenly you arrive at the draw and you realise that you have got that reward," Hodgson added. "It's such a big occasion. You know the World Cup is big but being here brings it home to me even more. Thousands of TV broadcasters, thousands of journalists, billions of people watching it and hanging on every word
English clubs last night reaffirmed that they will not to be entering the Heineken Cup next season and will instead press on with exploring "other options". The unanimous decision was taken at an emergency meeting of all 14 Premiership Rugby shareholders in London. The other options being pursued include a tournament with teams from South Africa, who are said to be "seriously interested in a European alternative to Super Rugby", and an expanded Aviva Premiership. The prospect of the four Welsh regions joining the English league or competing in an enhanced LV= Cup competition is also on the table. Another meeting will be held in January to discuss the options. "Our options boil down to expansion of the league or international competition," Mark McCafferty, the chief executive of Premiership Rugby, told The Times. "We now have six or seven weeks to put the

Only 10?
Mr. Styrofoam Greek columns strikes again.
Item #9 suggests that it might not even be obama in the pic, instead it´s possibly a body-double. Really? You mean there could be someone out there who would KNOWINGLY wear momjeans to lay his life on the line for the One?
I don´t know. The picture is probably real. He is probably not shooting skeet but rather shooting clay pigeons from a portable trap. At least he shot the gun at least one time.Obviously he has no skill at shooting a shotgun. He is holding it like he never had one before.Many of the many comments made about it just don´t hold water. And yes, I have shot both skeet and trap many times.
Pwesident Fudd is the pwoblem.
Those are shooting glasses. Wiley X or some similar brand.
How was the photographer able to shoot the picture at the precise time of the firing?
Give it a rest. So many of the so-called problems aren´t problems at all. Is it not enough that they´ve only been able to produce ONE photograph after a week of frantic searching?The guy is not a shooter. He said something dumb. We already know that he is not trustworthy. Let´s move on...
Agree #8.
I agree with #8. We all know what he is, so why bother? The funniest part of this whole thing was their hilarious protestations in advance about photoshopping.
The shotgun in the picture is a Browning Citori, over and under twelve guage. I know because it is the same gun I use at the range for skeet and also in the field for bird hunting. I can tell you that the way he has shouldered the gun in the picture, if he fired it any more than about twenty times with it mounted that way, he would have a sore bruised shoulder, especially since he is not wearing a padded shooting vest and the stock has not been customized to fit him.
Agree with #7. Photog snapped that picture at the millisecond when the smoke appeared as the rifle was fired. Amazing timing or there are many more pictures that were not released because they included Obama being helped off the skeet range holding a painfully bruised shoulder and cheek.And Obama´s agonizing second act only has 47 more months to go. (groan)
One explanation for the delay between event and picture posting might be revealed in the poor quality audio from the wireless bug in the Valkyrie´s office.It seems to indicate that they were waiting for a reply, which never came BTW, from Martha Stewart asking for her best recipe on the preparation of skeet. (JIC he actually got lucky and bagged one rather then having to purchase from the exotic game market) /ticsarc
I love the way his cheek is pressed against the stock.
Seriously, an odd throw away comment doesn´t deserve all this attention.
I´ll bet he posed with the shotgun and the smoke was photoshopped later.Why no video? Why are there not 50-60 different pictures?SUNGLASSES? Was someone dumb enough to put the targets in the direction of the sun?Fraud, fakery, just like everything else about this man.
I figured the ear protection was there to cover up the body double´s normal sized ears.
Shooting right next to a road?Photos of the skeet shooting area at Camp David showed more of an enclosed area.
From now on I´m calling this prez Skeeter Fibby.
If the picture was snapped at the moment of smoke ejecting from the barrel, his shoulder would already be in recoil from the blast. He is either the strongest man who ever lived, is capable of defying the laws of Physics, or the smoke was Photoshopped in after he was snapped merely holding the shotgun up against his cheek.
In our 5th year, it still kills me that the Administration shoves these badly executed contrivances at us and expects we will believe Him on matters of consequence.
When is bamboozler going to take up Marsha Blackburn on her shootin´ challenge? Will he too fall, hit his head and be out of action for a few months before he magically reappears, rip roarin´ ready to go shootin´? Don´t be surprised. ha ha ha ha.
The article makes good points. The posted replies make good points.But what does it matter NOW? The lofos have already been persuaded.What are we going to do about it?
Arrogant B@stard isn´t he????As for respecting the pres -- he deserves no respect and I´ll never consider him my president nor will I bow down to his incompetence as a leader....LZK
Anyone who has shot a 12 gauge knows the kick would push the shoulder back and possibly bruise the shoulder if held wrong. This picture shows he is totally unaware of the pain he is about to endure.My guess is this was posed and the gun smoke was photoshopped. No way this is an actual shot. He would be on his arse.
Note the long excellent comment by Standing Wolf that follows the article.Is that OUR Standing Wolf from his site many moons ago I wonder?
He appears to be shooting across a road. Does the skeet range have a road running in front of the shooters? I don´t know. It just seems odd.
The famouse head scar is plainly visible. Like to have someone explain it.
Saul Alinsky's Rule #5 for Radicals: "Ridicule is Man's Most Potent Weapon."Judging by many of the comments on this and similar "Gun-Totin' Obama" threads, turnabout, on the part of those who are doing the commenting, is fair play.
A photo op with a shotgun hardly makes him a man. It is likely he held the gun and the smoke was photoshoped.
We are preaching to the choir, here. Those who adore and vote for the fraud do not care if he lies. They do, too. They want their Obama phones, EBTs or adoring press want their moment of fame. Then when Tyranicalsaurus Rex and his Evil Maniacal spouse are done with the useful idiots they will be cast aside. Who will help? No one will have a weapon at all but, as the Homeland Security suggests, we have scissors and a desk under which to hide.
The country is going to hell in a hand basket and we´re surmising that the Pretender might have staged this stupid picture.This, my friends, is another smokescreen for the "low information" people of the correct viewpoint to stagger upon.Our country is about to become czarist Russia, people! Obamacare is the law of the land! That´s more important than whether this photo was shopped for.Let´s be more interested in Bengahzi, which is about to be swept; the administration coming after our 401ks; and/or an administration that bypasses congress by executive order and a congress who says, "ok" by way of passivity. Our taxes are about to skyrocket, the military is about to be axed, and the people being appointed to positions of power are anti-american.This picture is a "red" herring.
To start with I´m not a skeet or trap shooter although I have shot skeet. Why the muzzle brake on only the upper barrel of the shotgun? Does seem like a bit much smoke. As for shooting level, that would indicate, to me, that he was following the bird down to the ground and did not shoot it when most others would already have fired. I don´t know how much recoil would show if he were firing a light target load, even from a 12 ga. Overall, especially knowing the subject, I´d vote for fake. I´d also like to know his score if he ever did shoot skeet - 0 just like his name? Maybe he thinks it´s golf and low score is good.
Right on #20. Not only that, but his body looks to be photo shopped over some sort of green area background. Phoney from every aspect.
Still awaiting that pic of Two Won placing his halo over his eyes, Annie Oakley style and performing on stage in demonstrating his accuracy on the firing range. Will he do it on a horse?
As to the phony photo of our raging leader, why are there absolutely no photos allowed of this magnificent liar, playing golf ?Talk about a censoring, unquestioning old media. At least a few newsbreaks how he cheats at golf just like Slick Willie does. Where´s Breitbartian New Media ? with cameras virtually everywhere? Why aren´t there photos of the tax raping family on all their tax rip off vacations?What´s happening? Is New Media asleep, too?
If they´d photoshopped the smoke coming from Obeyme´s nether region, no doubt the photo would have looked more authentic.
If you don´t think he´s the strongest man who ever lived you must be a racist.
The President is clearly an experienced marksman. I was a committed Conservative sportsman all my life, but now I see the error of my ways and fully support the Presidents plan to confiscate my weapons. Yup. This one picture changed my mind. s/
I downloaded the original picture from the White House Flickr account, and here is selected EXIF information from it:Image: 4096 pixels wide by 2730 highCamera: Canon EOS 5D Mark IIIResolution: 240 pixels per inchFile date and time: 2013:2:1 17:11:38Date and time of original data generation: 2012:8:4 19:19:21 (that is, photo was taken at 7:19 PM on August 4, 2012)Shutter speed: 1/320 second at F4Software: Adobe Photoshop CS6 (Macintosh)In other words, the photo was at least uploaded into Photoshop in preparation for release. Was Photoshop used to alter it, also?August 4 is Obama´s birthday. He spent his birthday playing golf and shooting skeet? Where were Michelle and the kids?
More info about this photo: If you view the original on your computer, where it can be enlarged to full size, you will see that the picture was snapped just at the moment of discharge, and the shotgun is blurred, meaning it is recoiling, but the recoil has not yet been transmitted to 0´s body (except for the right forearm). I am suspicious of that smoke, though.
Aug 4, 2012Should be easy to check the WON´s schedule for that date.Was he in fact anywhere that he could have taken this photo ?Great job #41
#27. It probably is. He hangs out at one of the firearms forum sites I frequent.I´m a bit confused by the end of Dreyfus´ point #3. I am left-handed and shoot left handed (although no doubt quite a bit better than that dork.)
Love this from the article..."Faux-tography"That says it all.
Modern professional SLR´s can be set to shoot multiple frames/sec. And then it´s a matter of choice which frame is published.The EXIF data published above does not show the camera set for high-speed shooting.Looks like the photog was very lucky or Photoshop wins again.
#24: Jackpot! Besides the poor shooting position and a bruise on the shoulder, the thing that annoys me the most is the smoke.I am a paper puncher not a skeet shooter so I can not say for sure on shotgun shells. However, nothing I shoot makes smoke.I believe he posed for the picture and never fired the shotgun. Smoke was added so most would think he actually fired.
Perhaps the White House looked up the date when Obama was at Camp David, then photoshopped the photo and dated it for that date. They have been known to fake stuff (the birth certificate).Hard to believe he spent his birthday shooting skeet.
Contrary to what some posters are whining about, that its time to "let it go"...I will never cease to be amazed at all the LIES coming from Barry and Jay and the rest of the circus clowns known as the Democrat Party? Enough? No! Keep exposing their obvious LIES until all the low-info idiots begin to see that they have been hoodwinked by Biden, Clinton, Axelrod, Soetoro, Carney, Rice, Holder, Geithner, and all the other liars and phonies who get propped up and supported by the ass-press media water carrying lap dog rump swabs! Get it? GOOD!Now I´ve got to get back to my "skeetin´"
I don´t care if it is real or fake, but take a look at that shotgun...is the government providing these for the play time shooting? If so, I would guess this to be about a $4-5000.00 piece of hardware. Looks like the real spendy stuff the real rich guys I see at the range using. Who says we don´t have any money. Ha.
Why the two trails of smoke going in different directions starting from different points? I´m a but new to the shooting sports only about 48 years. In the spirit of full disclosure darned little of my experience has been shotgun shooting, mostly rifle and pistol. I´d have that barrel checked for a leak about 4in shy of the business end. He posed with a shotgun, may have shot it, may have shot it well, but this wasn´t a photo of that happening.
Can someone please explain the missing lower choke ?
The photographer and all present were in clear and resident mortal (or is it morbid) danger.If you think ole Dick Chaney was dangerous this girlie is not only dangerous but probably infectious.Check with roiters news for it´s shot STD records.
If the barrel is ported, why does the "smoke" come out of the right side of the barrel? That would tend to push the barrel to the left.
That certainly sounds like ´´our´´ Standing Wolf. This posting is worth it for SW´s excellent comment and the comments following it. The only unfortunate part is that those commentators could get audited. (And probably lots of people on this site).
He appears to be aiming with one eye. That is not the way you hold on a target with a shotgun. Both eyes remain open and focused on the target.

Virtuoso Life Magazine's July/August issue features Vvego International, Inc.'s unique cufflink sets as being "Not Off the Cuff."
Birmingham 7/05/2012 09:51 PM GMT (TransWorldNews)
Win a Vvego Very Cool Custom Made Wallet with $100 Inside!
Vvego's Cufflink Sets Get Thumbs Up in Virtuoso Life Magazine
Vvego International, Inc. today announced its appearance in Virtuoso Life magazine, which characterizes itself as being, "The Traveler's Guide to inspired pursuits."
In this month's Stylish Traveler department, Vvego's uniquely designed cufflink sets, which are made from "polymer-bound crushed gemstones" and polished to a high gloss, are touted as being perfect for traveling. They're TSA friendly, since this version of the Vvego cufflink has no metal (though Vvego does make cufflink sets from materials such as titanium and beryllium copper, as well) the cufflink sets mentioned in the article are perfect for frequent fliers.
Without the metal base that you find in most cufflink sets, Vvego's acrylic and crushed gemstone products will hopefully keep fliers from the annoyance of removing metal jewelry that might make scanner alarms at the airport sound off.
Robert Porter, Founder of Vvego International, said, "We were excited to know that Virtuoso Life wanted to feature our unique cufflink sets in their July/August edition. Their audience of travelers is a great demographic for Vvego's fun, brightly colored links. The fact that they are non-metallic should ease people's minds with regard to security check points both at home and abroad. Anything we can do to add style to a person's wardrobe, while decreasing the stress of having to remove personal items, makes for a win-win situation."
Vvego's products have been applauded in other publications, such as UrbanDaddy.com, where a December 2011 article called Vvego's cool wallets, belt selection, and cufflink sets, "Indestructible Things." All of Vvego's products may cost a little more, but the functionality of the items and the materials used in their construction are of such high quality that they will indeed last a very long time. UrbanDaddy also agrees that Vvego products are uniquely rugged and wrote, "It's the kind of accessorizing Ernest Hemingway would have done before heading out to a four-star hunting lodge in Manitoba."
However, Vvego's TSA friendly cufflink sets come in several attractive colors, including bright pink – for "the Cause." As a socially-minded company, Vvego donates 100% of the profits from every sale of the "pink links" for Breast Cancer Research. So, though Vvego is known for its exceptional men's accessories, any of its cufflink sets can easily be worn by women, too.
Vvego International, Inc. opened its e-commerce store in early 2011, and has already become a leader in boutique men's accessories. Its founder, Robert Porter, is by profession a commercial airline pilot, and by heart a designer that considers functionality that embraces style.

In 1636, the English were still relative newcomers to the continent. There was no Army, Navy or Marines, but there was a National Guard. English settlers had landed in the New World and established the Massachusetts Bay Colony seven years earlier. Feeling the need for protection, the colony adopted the English system of a militia, a band of citizens who would train together and be ready to fight when needed.
On Dec. 13, 1636, the growing colony divided the militia into three formal regiments. Though the title of National Guard wouldn't be widely adopted until much later.
For that reason, each Dec. 13 is celebrated as the birthday of the National Guard. This year, America's first military force is 377 years old.
