There are numerous advantages for businesses in using social media monitoring tools, most of which are regularly discussed. But one of the benefits that is quite often overlooked is lead generation.
The figures are rather extraordinary. 68% of marketers claim to have created leads from social media sites and 55% have closed deals found from a social media lead.
This article is aimed at explaining how to navigate the key areas of creating a lead generation campaign, in order to assist in the finding of viable leads for your business.

Social media monitoring is a complicated industry, populated with hundreds of different tools, varying from the dirt cheap to the shockingly expensive.
The versatility of these tools also means that there are countless uses for them, and keeping track of just which tool you would want and why is understandably a headache for many.
To help you navigate this maze, I'm going to lead you on a journey through some of the key ways employing a monitoring tool can help you and your business.

The sheer wealth of social media monitoring tools available is matched only by the richness of practical uses that they afford users. Considering this, I thought it would be useful to list some of the key ways you can get the most out of your monitoring tool, starting with identifying influencers.

Getting started with Slice for Android
Shopping online has many benefits. You almost never have to worry about how many of an item a specific store has in stock, how bad traffic is at certain times, or having to deal with other shoppers who are angry for whatever reason. It also has its downsides. If you purchase a lot of items online, it can be easy to lose track of what you've purchased, when they're supposed to arrive, or how much they cost.

ZiPPIC™ Rail Standard Color: Black SKU: USZIPPR8 Product Bar Code Number: 896213002814 MSRP:24.99
MSRP $24.99. Now shipping! Buy now from Amazon.com.
Answer: Yes. ZiP™ has a unique system of rails. ZiP™ Std Rail, ZiPPic™Rail, ZiPNite™Rail (Glock style sight provisions), and **ZiPSBR™Rail (Approved Form 1 for legal use). Each rail has a purpose. The ZiPPic™ allows you to attach any type of red dot heads up display on its standard picatinny rail dimensions, and is used as the locating rail for the BattleZiP™ **SBR Survival Stock. While the **ZiPSBR™ Rail allows the ZiP Operator™ to attach ZiP™ to another platform such as a AR-15 or SCAR.
** Note: SBR stands for a special classification of weapon (In this case a pistol) when transformed into an SBR- or Short Barreled Rifle. As such, purchase -or- possession of a rail or a stock does not require an Approved ATF Form 1, however, USE OF THOSE COMPONENTS while in combination with ZiP™ (attached to another platform) e.g. AR-15/SCAR or BattleZiP™ SBR Stock, requires the user to satisfy two separate issues for legal use. 1) is overall length of the entire platform of 26 inches, 2) is barrel length of a minimum of 16 inches. ZiP™ has only a 5.25 inch barrel "Short barrel rifle" when attached) and so the Approved ATF Form 1 (cost $200) is required for LEGAL USE.

The popular link-sharing site has banned a half-dozen prominent sites, including TheAtlantic.com and BusinessWeek.com, according to a recently created subreddit. Other banned sites include Phys.org, ScienceDaily.com, and GlobalPost.
Reddit users who try to submit links to these sites are greeted with a message that informs them that "this domain has been banned for spamming and/or cheating."

IMO guys, the competition for our starting FB spot next year will be the most intense. Kerridge has the experience and blocking, Shallman has the power game, size, and athleticism, and Houma has the speed factor and catching out of the backfield element. Do guys think we'll see FB by committee depending on the situation in the game or do you think one guy separates himself. IMO, its Shallman's job to lose cause he has all the elements needed to be a stud FB. The only thing with Shallman is he thinks he's coming in to run the ball. We all know if you're playing FB, your touches are limited and are an unsung hero. I just think with his size and athleticism, he gives us the best option at FB. I'm excited to see who wins that battle.

When away from their home districts, college students find it difficult to mail in absentees. / AP File Photo
Coverage of the United States 2012 Presidential election is well on its way to reaching a fever pitch as we rapidly approach the middle of summer with who the Republican partys candidate will be finally set in stone.
What is not set in stone, however, for most college students is how they will be voting come fall. For myself, at least, it required a moment of focus to remember that I will be in Tallahassee, not the precinct in Miamiwhere I am registered to vote when election day rolls around. Any university student like myself who has not registered to vote in Tallahassee or their respective college town thus has two options, and one is much easier than the other.
Option one is to drive home days or the day before the election to vote in the precinct in which you are registered. The problems with this option are rather self evident, since anyone who does not have a car, the money to pay for gas,and the ability to take the time to miss a day or days of classes driving home and back is unable to use this method to vote. However, if a student at FSU or another school does decide to proceed with this method and find that it would work for you, more power to you. But, there is an easier way.
For anyone who is initially registered to vote in Miami-Dade County, the process for registering as absentee is startlingly simple. Searching Miami-Dade voting registration in Google brings up the official Miami-Dade voting registration website, which provides easily usable tabs and directions to a page with a link to the actual absentee ballot request form. From start to finish, the process of registering to vote as absentee for a Miami-Dade County resident and registered voterthat voter being metook approximately 10 minutes.
The process for anyone registered in other counties of Florida or other states is essentially the same: entering a search for your own county, and including the specification of voter registration or absentee voting should make the official government website of your home county the first or one of the first results displayed on the page.
From there, it is simple to follow the cues on the website to sign up for the ballot. Following that, an email will be sent to the one you choose to provide with more instructions on what will happen with regards to the approval or disapproval of your request for the absentee ballot.
While Miami-Dade mails absentee ballots between 28 and 35 days prior to the election for anyone other than overseas voters and military voters, it is possible that the county you live in operates under a different timeline, and anyone registering as an absentee should check their respective county website for the information most accurate for them.
Even though the process truly is not a hassle, something I can say based on having recently registered as absentee, it is important to make sure that as many people as possible of voting age get out and vote for each and every election, especially since this general election is also a presidential one. College students generally pride themselves on being informed and up to date on most everything happening in the world, at least on the things they deem interesting, and the determining of who is going to be elected to lead and govern the country in which you live definitely qualifies as interesting.
I implore everyone to take care of their own registration and go out and pay it forward, making sure that at least one other person is registered to vote as either an absentee or in the district where they will be on election day.
Whether you support Obama, Romney, a different candidate or no candidate at all and find yourself supporting certain ideas and policies instead, voting is a civil responsibility and is one of the only ways for the average person to make their voice heard in the political process, so please, dont be your own muzzle: vote.

Unity has it's own excellent documentation: http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ | |||

In addition to the documentation and the unity forums, I recommend the Unity question & answer site: | |||||||||||||||||
There's a giant community wiki of tutorials and resources on Unity's answer's site: http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/12321/how-can-i-start-learning-unity-fast-list-of-tutori.html | ||||

The unity forums also contain a wealth of information. You'll be hard pressed, starting out, to come up with questions that others before you didn't have as well, and it's a pretty helpful bunch overthere. | ||||
When I was learning Unity, the most helpful thing was going through the Lerpz tutorial (http://unity3d.com/support/resources/tutorials/3d-platform-game), but then (and probably even more helpful) going through the FPS Shooter tutorial (http://unity3d.com/support/resources/tutorials/fpstutorial). Going through those two tutorials helped immensely, more than any other tutorials, and even the Unity Development book. | ||||
I've been following a free video tutorial series by the "Tornado Twins" on YouTube.

Roy's San Diego Waterfront
Online Reservations
May 6, 2013: I had a dinner meeting with my boss and 2 customers: excellent for discussion and food was excellent ! Near the Congress center we walk to the Restaurant and it is near as well from the Manchester Grand Hyatt Hotel I will return when I am back to San Diego !
Every time we visit Roy's we have a great time. The food is excellent, I love the well thought out and beautifully prepared meals, both for lunch, dinner and brunch. The chef is very innovative, it is always a tough choice to pick one entree, there is just so many delicious options to choose from. Service is always friendly, it feels as if you are on a mini vacation. Highly recommend the outside seating and bar.
We visited Roy's for a romantic dinner for two and were extremely pleased with the food, the ambience and the service. The butterfish was delicious beyond words and we would highly recommend the Baja Roll.
Anyone who goes should have the short ribs for appetizer, it's off the chain! The seared ahi was decent but pales compared to the ribs. Scallops were cooked to perfection & butterfish was really good. Our friend did not care for his surf and turf. He said the meat was not cooked to his like, the lobster tail looked a bit on the small side. The Side Car, Moscato, & Jalapeño margarita were really good! The only shortcoming was our waiter being quite slow, the table of 2 came about 20 min after us and got their entrees served before our entree came. We were not very happy about it.
We're from out of town and went to Roy's for our Anniversary.. They had great food, the service was amazing and they even offered up bread and a dish of ice-cream for my Son at no cost.. We all had a great meal and wen't for a nice walk along the harbour after dinner as the sun set. Highly recommend this place.
Better than most chains - portions are small - so you won't leave stuffed - but everything was nicely prepared and a nice mix of tastes worthy of the fusion moniker- our waitress was top notch. Best Mai Tai I have had. Try the upside down pineapple cake for dessert - you'll have room.
We had the Trio of Seafood and Duck Confit Salad--we shared both and they were both superb! We also shared the boat of appetizers and that was excellent as well. All three are definitely recommended!
A tad pricy but your taste buds will live you for it. Our waiter had a great personality and the service was awesome. Didn't appear to have a huge kid menu but for adults it's great. Wine list is extensive and the view of the marina is nice. If you get the chance? Go enjoy!!!
We've enjoyed fabulous meals at many of the Roy's restaurants in HI, SF, Pebble Beach, and now SD. We've had great meals at all (well, except the time that the Maui Roy's ran out of butterfish!), but for some reason, this SD Roy's seems to have been exceptionally good. My favorite butterfish was outstanding, as was our entire meal, as well as the service. A wonderful view, as well. They were also able to accommodate my husband's need for a gluten free meal.
I am NEVER disappointed by Roy's. Another fabulous meal!
This is a new great find for us and we will return with and without friends! Everybody should try the Roy's Trio of fish and it appeared that the wife enjoyed the scallops as well.
One of the most enjoyable dining experiences I've had in a long time. Great food, great service, great atmosphere.
Didn't get to the wine list. . .their cocktails are amazing! The food was fantastic. The service was perfect. View of the fireworks just topped off the evening. We eat out often. Nobu 57th is a family favorite but we have never enjoyed ourselves more there or anywhere than our evening at Roy's San Diego Waterfront.
This was our first time visiting Roy's. We sat on the patio with a great view of the bay and was able to people watch. The food was very good and the martini's to die for. Will definitely go back.
Normally I don't do chain restaurants because I am a purist, but this is the exception. We dined outside for my boyfriend's birthday. The waitstaff made everything perfect for the occasion - everyone said Happy Birthday, note in the menu, complimentary dessert. The food at Roy's is excellent, and the outdoor dining is great - it's off the tourist path so not overly noisy or chilly. We had sushi appetizers, then he had swordfish and I had butterfish, both were delicious. We also had the South African sauvignon blanc which was a perfect pairing. Our waitress was energetic and fun, as was everyone we encountered on staff. The dinner is certainly not inexpensive, but well worth it for a special occasion.
This was our first time at Roy's, as we were not disappointed! The drinks were great and the food was amazing! The only drawback was the waiter was VERY pushy about us ordering more appetizers, food, drinks, desserts, etc...I know that is part of their job, but he went overboard. We started to feel uncomfortable with all the things he was pushing on us to get. He was never rude, he was totally friendly, but it was just TOO MUCH!
Expensive for the choice and quality of seafood. But the setting and service are excellent.
The butterfish, amazing ... mushroom apetizer, delicious... surf and turf, perfect... split plate perfect size for two ... will be back.
Pre-dinner drinks at the bar outside are a must! Great drinks, and even better atmosphere! It feels like you are in Hawaii for a night! The food is great too, and reasonabily priced for a special occasion dinner! Little tip: enter from the Marriott and enjoy the beautiful view of the gorgeous pool from the bridge (it helps the hawaiian feel!!).
We enjoyed this Roy's for the first time last month and have been anxious to return. We brought friends who had not been here before. All four of enjoyed the patio setting, food and drinks. The 'group' service was very good, but our personal server ordered one drink wrong and made an inappropriate comment when I turned down ordering a third round of drinks. We probably over tipped him!
Went during comic con and wanted to find a place that didn't have a long wait. Thanks to open table we were able to book our reservation and walk in and be seated in little wait. Because it was comic con weekend it was packed and really loud. Possibly on a regular night it wouldn't be that way? Food was delicious and perfectly cooked. Their molten chocolate cake was just alright, would not order it again. Service was great considering how crowded it was.
They were able to take care of my team and provide great food.
Enjoyed the food and excellent service. Beautiful waterfront view.
Roy's food is always outstanding. I will keep coming back!
I've dined at Roy's many times in many different locations. This one is special because of its location, on the water in San Diego overlooking the harbor and bay. Its a lovely locations with great outdoor seating and views. The food was amazing as always. I had the butterfish, yummy, and my husband had the yellowfin tuna. We shared the chocolate souffle for dessert. We also enjoyed very nice wine with our meal. I will definitely return.
We love Roys! It's great every single time, the food is fresh, different and very tasty! You can't go wrong! Our server was fantastic and very attentive.
Patio very nice. Great views of harbor and marina. Food was very weil prepared, presented and tasted fantastic!. Service was a little spotty in the beginning but was fine after that. Bar drinks were good, but you get the shaft for premium alcohol! Ex: Bloody Mary, $8.95 for well vodka. Added another $5.00 for Grey Goose to the already $8.95 for a total of $13.95 for one drink!!!! Sorry, but no matter where you go that's a total rip off! $8.95 for a regular Bloody Mary should have included premium spirits!
The food was excellent as usual and our waitress was great. She was very personable and attentive.
We went to Roys for an early dinner with friends before the SD Symphony Pops Concert. We asked to be seated outside and it was delightful; We had a nice table and marvellous view. The service was really good, and the food was a feast for the eyes as well as the tongue!! Every plate was a work of art. The subtle flavors in my sushi appetizer were wonderful and my entree of scallops were perfectly cooked with nice contracting tastes of sweet apricots and herbs. I would definitely want to go back.
Located overlooking the Marina this Roy's is the perfect San Diego dining spot for both dining and people watching. Within the grounds of the Marriott Marquis in a very elegant building, this large restaurant with Private Dining on the upper floor and Main dining Room on the lower waterfront level is the perfect dining experience. We opted for the Prix Fixe menu three courses for under $40.00 each, great value and as always super presentation with service by Dan to match. The Roy's house Chardonnay is worth a mention, very reasonably priced at around $40.00 a bottle, the taste is that of a much more expensive wine.
Sitting outside on the patio and seeing the boats in the harbor and the people walking by on the boardwalk is a great San Diego summer experience. We go to Roy's before attending a Summer Pop's program and always enjoy a wonderful dinner.
The seafood entree I ordered (the Trio) was delicious - moist, tasty, and just the right amount.
This is a wonderful location to take out-of-town visitors whom you wish to "wow" with San Diego and its waterfront. The restaurant is suitably classy without being pretentious. On sunny days, there is nothing more stunning than to sit at an umbrella equipped table and view the collection of boats, yachts, cruisers and pedestrians crossing San Diego Bay and walking along the Embarcadero. It's a bit on the pricey side due to its target audience being the myriad of convention goers who are always filling the nearby hotels and who are on company expense accounts. We've dined at several Roy's in Hawaii and California, but we think this one is extra special. If you are looking for a restaurant to impress your out-of-town guests - this is it.
Very good seafood for reasonable prices, we had a great table with an awesome view of the harbor. Girlfriend had a butterfish dish that was one of the best pieces of fish I've tried. I had the shellfish sampler which was very fresh and crab cake was delicious We really enjoyed the view and feel of the restaurant, only downside I would say was it was a tad confusing on how to get in the restaurant from the Marriott hotel.
The experience was just as great as the last time. They have lots of gluten free options, including an amazing chocolate souffle! I had a great business dinner this time, it was pretty much social the last time. The noise level and ambiance are great for any time. Service was perfect, even with our large party.
We stayed at the San Diego Marriott Marquis where Roy's is located so the location was very convenient for us. The food was outstanding. We really enjoyed the samplers as appetizers and the entrees were superbly prepared. The service was equally very good. I highly recommend this restaurant and would consider it a "must visit" for anyone staying in San Diego.
Love this restaurant. The food combinations are so unique and delicious. Romantic, beautiful view. You are never rushed through your meal.
We celebrated our anniversary and this was a perfect environment! Staff were very attentive, food was excellent, and the view was to remember. We even got a special dessert and a note commemorating our celebration! The restaurant was very accommodating to seat us with a great view!
We are fans of Roy's restaurants and have eaten at many. This one is unique in that it is near the harbor, lots of outdoor seating and the tiki torches gave a Hawaiian feel . We ate here to celebrate an anniversary and were not disappointed. We enjoyed an outdoor table near a firepit, and our favorite meals, the Ahi and the Butterfish, were prepared to perfection. Our waiter provided excellent service and we are happy to say that most Roy's restaurants have the best servers. Next time we are in San Diego we will eat here again.
I took my girlfriend here for our 6 year anniversary and this place was nothing but good vibes. Our waitress was very nice and the service here is incredible. They acctual took the time to take a picture of us and printed us out a congratulations letter to us. I dont think any other restaraunt does these type of things for special occasions. And on top of it all they gave us free dessert for our anniversary. I would recommend this place to anyone!!!
the food was great, but the wait staff was exceptional. they were very attentive, friendly, and helpful.
Delicious food. Table along window with view of water was very nice. Calamari appetizer was excellent as well as Roy's Trio for main course. Our wait staff was very good as well. We had a really good time.
I haven't been to a Roy's Restaurant in about two years, and was ecstatic that I was staying within steps of the one near my Marriott hotel. The service and food were dynamite, and the margaritas were killer. This is a great place to go if you enjoy sushi or seafood. Their Lakanilau Roll was even better than I remember it. We had the filet with lobster and the mixed seafood trio (all fish). It was incredible. We left stuffed and didn't mind the price- you get what you pay for! I highly recommend a visit to Roy's!
The food at Roy's is consistently flavorful and delicate.
The ambience was great. I received very attentive and amiable service and the food was marvelous--absolutely delicious and beautiful presentation. By the way great cocktail choices as well
They always do a great job here and be sure to try the "Three Fish Dinner". It is a good variety, not to large yet plenty of food. If you want to look out yet be comfortable get a booth rather than the window tables.
Been to many Roy's most often in Jcksonville Beach Florida Typcial ROy's exprince great drinks great sushi and seafood nice atmosphere in San Diego and very convenient for those at the confernce center
This is our 8th dinner at Roy's restaurant in 2013 and perhaps one the best in a line of great experiences. In addition to the very fine food and service (thanks Rick and Cris) but nature decided to treat us to the most beautiful, after sun set, sky glow that evolved for over 30 minutes during the hour. Bye the way, the restaurant visits have split evenly between the Two in San Diego and the one in Las Vegas.
Nice environment and excellent service... I only hoped the food were a little more for my stomach...
The food and service are fantastic every time we go!!

Who we are |
Amicus is a small legal charity which helps provide representation for those facing the death penalty in the United States. We were founded in 1992 in memory of Andrew Lee Jones, who was executed by the state of Louisiana in 1991. We believe the death penalty is disproportionately imposed on the most vulnerable in society, violating their right to due process and the concept of equal justice before the law. We are not a campaigning organisation. We believe we can make the greatest difference through active involvement in frontline work. Our mission is to provide better access to justice for those who could not otherwise afford it. The quality of representation in a capital trial is literally a matter of life and death. Capital defence lawyers in the US are generally overworked and underpaid. Some are also woefully inexperienced and a significant number of US citizens have gone to their deaths because of poor legal representation. Our internship programme sends 20-30 trained interns out to the US every year to carry out vital work that would not get done without them. Our casework programme provides additional remote support from here in the UK. In addition, we run a twice yearly training programme on US capital law, we organise a range of awareness raising and fund raisising events and we publish the Amicus journal. Our founder, Jane Officer, was a retired school teacher who joined the penfriend organisation Lifelines after seeing the BBC death row documentary 14 Days in May. In 1990 she received Andrew Lee Jones' name as a penfriend and started writing to him. They gradually formed a strong friendship and Jane travelled to Louisiana to speak at Andrew's pardon board hearing and to be with him on the day of his execution. After Andrew's death, Jane set up the Andrew Lee Jones Fund, which awarded scholarships to British and American law students who were interested in capital defence. Over the years, Jane's small group of committed volunteers evolved into Amicus. We now have an office in London with three Directors managing our activities. Our Board of Trustees includes members of the original Andrew Lee Jones Fund founding committee and Jane Officer is now one of our patrons.

Debunking the "Dinosaurs" of Kachina Bridge
About 65.5 million years ago, the last of the non-avian dinosaurs were wiped out in the fallout from one of the earth's most catastrophic extinction events. They left only bones and traces in the rock behind. Yet there are people who claim that humans actually lived alongside dinosaurs. Young earth creationists have a habit of twisting natural history to fit within the narrow confines of their interpretation of Genesis, and they insist that humans once co-existed with sauropods, tyrannosaurs, ceratopsians and other dinosaurs within the last 6,000 years or so.
To support their fantastical claims, some creationists cite what they believe to be various sculptures, carvings and other artistic representations of dinosaurs made by ancient cultures around the world. Most of these have been discredited as forgeries and misinterpreted objects, but creationists continue to use them as evidence for their peculiar view of earth history. Among the most oft-cited is a petroglyph of what appears to be an Apatosaurus-like sauropod on Kachina Bridge in Utah's Natural Bridges National Monument. According to the fundamentalist-apologist group Answers in Genesis, "The petroglyph of a sauropod dinosaur clearly has important implications—indicating that dinosaurs were indeed known to men after the Flood until they eventually died out and became (apparently) extinct." The assumption is that the petroglyph was intentionally carved by humans to represent a single animal that people had actually seen walking around the landscape in the recent past. A paper just published by paleontologists Phil Senter and Sally Cole demolishes this argument.
Have you ever watched the clouds go by and thought you saw one in the shape of an animal, or seen the "man in the moon"? These are examples of pareidolia—seeing what we believe to be a significant shape or pattern when it isn't really there. This phenomenon also explains the "dinosaur" on Kachina Bridge. Upon close inspection by Senter and Cole, the "sauropod dinosaur" turned out to be made up of distinct carvings and mud stains. It is definitely not a depiction of a single animal, and, viewed in detail, it looks nothing like a dinosaur. The separate carvings and mud stains only look like a dinosaur to those wishing to find one there.
While certainly the most prominent, the supposed sauropod was not the only dinosaur carving creationists thought they saw on the bridge. Three other dinosaur depictions have been said to exist, but Senter and Cole easily debunked these, as well. One of the "dinosaurs" was nothing but a mud stain; a proposed Triceratops was just a composite of petroglyphs that do not represent animals, and what has been described as a carving of Monoclonius was nothing more than an enigmatic squiggle. There are no dinosaur carvings on Kachina Bridge.
The Kachina Bridge petroglyphs were not hoaxes or frauds. They were carved by people who once lived in the region, but there is no indication that any of them represent animals, living or extinct. What creationists thought they saw in the rocks has turned out to be an illusion, but I wonder how many of them will actually admit their mistake?

Looks like I'm updating my articles with this!
Yeah i wouldn't count on the new paper swaying any on the biblical side… after all, it was researched and published by fallible man in service of evilution! but seriously, it's good to see an actual scholarly rebuttal to the silly petroglyph myths peddled by creationists.
First on of all, not all of us on the "biblical side" believe in the literal seven days. Many of us see them as God's timing and, yes, we believe in the Big Bang.
I do think Creationist try to "box God" to fit thier own beleifs. I've seen it several times. You can't box God or put your limits on Him. -
[...] in Utah, hailed by creationist groups as evidence of man and sauropod walking the Earth together, don't actually depict a dinosaur. Let's hope creationists are [...]
[...] in Utah, hailed by creationist groups as evidence of man and sauropod walking the Earth together, don't actually depict a dinosaur. Let's hope creationists are listening.Thanks for the great posts to all the contributors. [...]
If it had been a picture of a horse, there would be no debate, but since it threatens your religious worldview you bring out the arsenal of microscopic examination. You "experts" are truly amazing, you can't go on fooling the public forever,careful …. your bias is showing. OH…. and Don't forget to see if I spelled words right and used proper grammar or used paragraphs correctly so you can dismiss me as a stupid layman.
[...] the 'Dinosaurs' of Kachina Bridge," Brian Switek, Dinosaur Tracking, Smithsonian [...]
Clearly Craig @6 must be absolutely correct! It's gotta be the author's (and scientists') bias preventing us from seeing that the carving is all too obviously a winged brontosaurus chowing down on an enormous turtle with antlers. I mean, this is God's work, right? And he can create anything, right? Including giant turtles with antlers!
Methinks the commenter doth protest too much. "Bias" indeed.
The religion is just a symptom of an impaired mind. Some of these followers (not all) cannot be reasoned with because they may have impaired reasoning or logic. For example, one with the same brain raised in China would have a completely different belief, but the symptoms would be the same.
I'd like to point out sevral things here. Firstly, I do not believe that dinosaurs were roaming the Earth just a few thousand years ago, I do not believe that Humans and Dinosaurs ever lived side by side. And I most certainly do not believe in some all powerful bearded man who created the universe.
That being said, I do believe that any scientific opinion must be carefully measured, well thought out and thouroughly unbiased. This article is one of the most blatant pieces of pseudo-science I've seen recently. The author essentially just says "You are all imagining it and that's the only explanation." There is no evidence presented nor any alternative theories. Not good science. I came here looking for an intelligent discussion of the possible explanations for this petroglyph and what I found was no better than the articles made by moon landing hoax fanatics who use pseudo-science to try to debunk that famous event. -
Chris, that's because you have to actually read the study. It would be illegal for them to copy and paste the study here. The study has the details of how the 3 "dinosaurs" in question where actually not paintings, but several paintings, with old mud stains between.
Though I agree it would have been nice if this article went into a little more detail as to how the study was conducted.
For instance, spectroscopic analysis can show us what materials were used in pigments, that lets us tell the difference between paint and mud, that the naked eye cannot. We use the same technology to analyze paintings and can see the several layers of paintings, or paintings underneath other paintings.
My name's Eduardo
I'm from Brazil and not speak english. so sorry my spelling errorsBut it does not matter, I believe in God,as evidencie of cration are many. how to explain eg the Cambrian explosion? And evolution of the eyes? and the lack of transitional fossils. Everyday someone people talking "I found…" when we search only a farce.
If you want to discuss with me my email: email@example.com -
[...] the 'Dinosaurs' of Kachina Bridge," Brian Switek, Dinosaur Tracking, Smithsonian [...]
It looks like they glanced at it with a pair of binoculars and with complete bias state it's an illusion. Here is better research:
http://www.untoldsecretsofplanetearth.com/docs/kachina_bridge-2011-10_mb.pdf -
http://evidenceweb.net/pdfs/kachina-bridge.pdf Refutes Senter and Cole.
http://www.untoldsecretsofplanetearth.com/home.html Proves that dinosaurs were called dragons. Before they were called dinosaurs.
they did a close up examination and they found one continuos mark and no mud absolutely none so debunking the "dinosaurs" is debunked
The authors are correct. However, the explanation for the creationists who have really no scientific proof and base everything on what they are taught by blinded religious individuals who cannot think for themselves. The universe was not created by a Bearded Man in a Robe.
The real fact for all is that we are all from a genetically manipulated species that was put into action by a superior Alien race thousands of years ago which can explain all the lose ends that Archeologists search for. Besides if classical Dinosaurs existed along side of man we would all have been their food. -
I find it odd that a picture of the paintings was not placed on the website. If these creationists are simply seeing cloud figures then let us see for ourselves. This link does a better job.
http://hudsonvalleygeologist.blogspot.com/2011/03/kachina-bridge-dinosaurs.htmlHe allows us to see the drawings. Cave painting involves paint. . . mud. Its seems like the traditional scientists are saying "I know it looks like a dinosaur, but its not". Guys, it looks like a dinosaur.
Evolution is a fact…because evolutionists have irrefutable facts to back it up! Oh wait, they don't? I'm confused…evolution is most assuredly perpetuated as absolute truth. Can that be appropriate if the theory of evolution is still just a theory? One should not be surprised to learn the person or persons who've 'proven' this particular cave drawing as anything but a dinosaur simply viewed it binoculars. See below article, sixth or so paragraph from the bottom. And that's sufficient inquiry to turn the assertion this drawing is a dinosaur completely on its head? Not quite…
The theory of evolution is largely a faith-based religion. That is all.
I don't have a particular stance on the age of dinosaurs, but this article is ridiculously slanted and biased. Not to mention that the whole argument begs the question–among other fallacies. This article says, in short, "dinosaurs are old, so any evidence that suggests they may be young is false, because dinosaurs are old. Therefore, dinosaurs are old"
C'mon, Smithsonian–this is beneath you.
Humans have depicted all sorts of fantastical creatures for many thousands of years. Are gargoyles and green men proof of the existence of such creatures? Of course not! No more than the fact that pegasi have been depicted proves their existence. Mankind is artistic and creative. It's also a fact that people tend to prefer to impose their beliefs on reality, rather than adjusting their beliefs, based on reality. Tbh, I'd be more surprised if there were NO historical depictions that bore similsrities to dinosaurs. The laws of probability should make such examples almost certain. Especially considering the many similarities, in appearance, between dinosaurs and present day animals. If vague similarities in historical carvings are the best evidence that creationists can come up with, to support their co-existence claims, it speaks volumes about how shaky their 'argument' is. Especially considering the mountains of, verified and overwhelming, evidence that totally contradicts their viewpoint, from across the scientific disciplines…

Blizzards are nothing new. Spare me the "historic" business.
Man o man, everyone in that area get ready, food, water, medicine, good books. That monster looks to big to outrun at this point. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
#1, Blizzards are nothing new, thats true but that does not make them harmless. As someone sitting smack dead in the middle of the worst of it I am bracing for 30" of snow and 40 to 50 MPH sustained winds.While many like to recall 5 and 6 foot snowfalls where they had to still go to school and no one missed work, I respectfully opine, you are full of it. This blizzard is as big if not bigger than the one in 1978 that left thousands stranded, miles of abandoned cars on the interstates and knocked out power for weeks to some.Yes, blizzards happen, about once every decade. We who live here understand the whole just stay home for a couple days thing. We have bread and water and a good book and lots of candles and flashlights. Its one thing to live with this weather but the minute you stop respecting the power of such events you put yourself and lots of others in mortal peril.While end of the world reporting is getting a little monotonous losing sight of just how dangerous this kind of event is dangerous.
Now, how can we blame this on Global Warming, Bush, Limbaugh, and Bitter Clingers.........
Spent seven winters in Rochester NY. This was routine. People just went about their business.
#3. I grew up in New England. My point was about language in the media. As in:better to say "blizzard conditions on Friday night and Saturday...be sure to have food and batteries, and stay home."instead of "OMG, Historic, Superstorm, Possible End of the World as we Know IT!"
I was going to make a comment about blue states, but I won´t.
If this happened in flyover country we´d hear only a footnote about if. Gotta love the hysterical media when it affects them.
I hope the Yankees find themselves better prepared for this weather event than they were for Hurricane Sandy. I expect the South will once again have to come to their aid and rescue in man hours and tax dollars.
Don´t worry about your tax dollars being ill-spent in Massachusetts, #9. This state is one of the top ten sources of revenue for the federal government, and gets back 79 cents for every dollar it sends to Washington. As for the power crews and other emergency services, we send them where they´re needed, including to Texas during the terrible drought and wildfires. Our crews plowed out Virginia and DC during their blizzard a few years ago.No one hear is panicking. No one here is asking for help. No one here is responsible for the media hysteria. But thanks so much for your good wishes.
The media hype this (and other stories) simply for viewers and readers. Now the Weather Channel is naming storms to ramp up the interest. Not to say this thing isn´t dangerous so use common sense.The lofo´s of course won´t use common sense and I am sure we will see some stories about the poor and homeless dying in the streets.
I´m in NYC. It´s 31 degrees, wind 3 mph. It´s not snowing now ... looks like a light rain. I´m up on the 10th Floor - ground looks like it may be slushy.So far, so good.
#12, right now I am in Florida, and it´s warm and sunny. I ain´t going back up north until that snow all melts!
For the next 6 months the LSM will lead their news with this storm and how it is the fault of the Republicians that every thing in the area isn´t back to normal.
What 3 and 10 said.Thank you.
#13 ~ I´m so jealous right now!!
The newest media fetish is naming snowstorms. How stupid is that? Gives them something to fret about.
historic? More like hysterics.Much snow but it has been going on since the beginning of time.

PrefaceA -armor strategy uses heroes who can lower the enemy teams armor while doing physical damage. Its main advantage is making physical attacks stronger, making physical damage spells stay strong from the beginning to the end of the game and forcing the other team to spend gold on +armor items just to get back to normal armor levels. A -armor team relies on hero synergy instead of picking a group of the strongest heroes.
The goal of this thread is to promote discussion of -armor strategies, why they work or don't work, what comps work, what is lacking to put more depth into the strategy (more heroes with physical spells ect), hopefully to teach people and collect replays of people playing this strat.
This thread and the discussion that it produces is going to be used to make a guide to all the different and under the radar strategies in hon. I don't pretended to know any thing so feel free to shout out if I said some thing you feel is wrong just back it up with some logic.
Overview of a -Armor Team
Facts to Know
-armor does not scale as well past 0 so stacking an excessive amount of -armor does not have much benefit.
Articles on armor hondb article and mechanics reference thread do mention other things i should link to or mention
Heroes, Items, and Bans
Heroes: Andromeda Armadon Pandamonium Deadwood demented shaman Pestilence Soulstealer Predator Defiler
-armor Items: Shieldbreaker deamonic breastplate
+armor Items: plated greaves ring of the teach/abyssal skull/nomes wisdom astrolabe whispering helm others. Most of these items are a good counter to a -armor team if a single hero has one of the aura items taking them out first is a good idea.
- Plague Rider he has a massive + armor ability
- Accursed he can dispel -armor effects and is strong on his own
- jeraziah his ult makes your set up worthless
- keeper of the forest he has a massive +armor ability as well but since hes pretty bad you don't need to ban him most of the time
Heroes picks extended information
Note worthy lanesAndromeda pandamonium: double stun lane a comet can give you good set up for a flick and the combination of flick and aurora's -armor will get any heroes starting armor bellow 0.
demented shaman pandamonium: Flicking some one into your creep wave fallowed by demented shamans heal is a great one two punch that can easily drop most heroes. This combo is a great counter to any lane that has a melee hero in it.
demented shaman pestilence: great offensive lane with an aoe stun and strong slow.
These are just 2 set ups I feel would work well feel free to mention your own or ask questions. If you play these teams please post a replay link in the thread.
Short lane Andromeda Armadon
Mid deadwood
Long lane demented shaman pestilence
- Pestalinces swarm -> deadwoods willowmaker instantly kills heroes for most of the game
- demented shaman and pestilence are a strong offensive lane
- Andromeda and armadon can hold a short lane and score a kill if the enemy over extends them self
- later in the game you have good initiation with pestilence and deadwoods ult + andros ult can make the fight a 3v5 if you are lucky
- You don't want to use this set up if deadwood can't take their solo mid.
- You have a triple melee set up which is hard to pull of.
- armadon andromdea lane is not optimal
- -armor is more single target then aoe making quill spam less awesome
Short lane Glacius Armadon
Mid soulstealer
Long lane demented shaman pandamonium
- soulstealer can solo mid when deadwood can't
- demented shaman pandamonium lane is just as strong as pestilence pandamonium if not more so
- glacius armadon lane is quite good and the aura lets all of your lanes spam their spells
- good amount of aoe magic damage to mix in if they buy a lot of armor
- you have a much more even spread of -armor for quill spam
- can't take out single targets as well
- not much initiation
- has more low health heroes
more stuff to be added as people talk

I remember a lineup with pesti/dsham long lane, soulstealer mid (going for shieldbreaker later on), andromeda and <cant remember lanepartner> shor lane, played by a hightier clan.
nasty thing.
One thing I'm seeing problems with is if mid loses.
For example, lets say you end up going with Deadwood vs. (Insert super hard mid that beats deadwood). There's absolutely nobody available to roam in either one of the lanes. Lets say they start triganking- You have nobody that is able to port without losing a lane (Unless you want like Demented Shaman to start getting his farm on.)
Tri-Melee: If Andromeda roams, Armadon loses lane dominance very easily and you will lose that lane. If Demsha leaves, Pestilence loses the lane. Lack of roamers would screw you against an Ophelia sitting at your ramp ganking mid.
Effectively the same with Tri-ranged.
When looking at this build, you're heavily relying on momentum to carry you through the game. Deadwood does well, farms a portal key, and then you have enough to insta-gib them the entire game.
What happens if Deadwood doesn't do well and gets shut down? Same with soulstealer in your other one?
In my opinion, you don't need more than Demented Shaman and Pestilence. These two combined are enough to bring target hero to negative and everyone else to low armor. I would suggest as an example: If you have demented shaman pestilence / soul stealer mid, have Andromeda roam and have someone capable of soloing a lane- doesn't matter if they have armor reduction or not. Defiler, as mentioned, would be a great pick. As you mentioned yourself, Demented Shaman + X hero is great against any lane with a melee in it. However, recent trend shows 4 ranged / 1 melee. Or worse.
Also, your team lacks tower killing skills. If the enemy has a fast creep nuker, you won't be able to really push the towers early game. I'd recommend a physical based pusher, such as engineer. Tinker would let you mow down towers very early. Turret + Him = lots of physical DPS. His ultimate would be very good utility in any team. (Proposed: You're looking at Demented Shaman / Pestilence / Engineer / Andromeda / Defiler)
Saccing bans on Keeper of the Grove doesn't seem worth it to me, especially if Pestilence is a sure pick. Plague Rider and Accursed is completely understandable. Jeraziah is very weak early game, but I can see it happening.
Last edited by Meowshi; 06-22-2010 at 06:01 AM.
Is there an instance where this lineup would not be ideal? ie, against casters/ carry heavy team/ turtle strategy?
My line up:
Demented Shaman
Soul Stealer
Corrupted Disciple ( His ultimate also deduct -armor )
Long Lane:
Pestilence + Demented Shaman: This lane is powerful with DS as babysitter and Pest will rush for PK for initiation.
Mid: Corrupted Disciple. Why not SS mid? CD needs the farm to carry the team. He has only 1 aoe spells for farming.
Short Lane: Soul Stealer. SS will play defensively. He needs the level, not the farm. He will be able to catch up with farming when he hits lvl 9 and so on.
Roamer: Andromeda. With 2 solo lanes, andromeda should be roaming to provide lane presence and provide support if one of the lane is out of control.
CD and SS will benefit greatly from Andro Aura. CD also benefit from DS arcane hide, make him fairly hard to be killed. SS and CD can provide AoE for team fight.
Soulstealer in a dual lane would get rolled. He wouldn't get a single creep kill, and with his starting health/no escape ability means he would have to sit at tower and would probably get outleveled by the dual lane. Not even possible.
You don't really need everyone to get -armour for this to work I think.
Andro is necessary, buffing base damage, reducing armour, ranged attack and being a strong ganker/roamer.
I guess Predator would be a nice carry, especially with a Demonic Breastplate for the aura.
Pest is also a nice pick, as initiator.
For the rest, something like Dsham/Glacius would be nice, while Glacius is primarily magic based, he does have that aura, and Dsham is a great support with -armour ult and Entangle which is physical.
The main problem I see here is that either Predator or Andro have to solo mid, which leaves a support playing 1v2 if Andro is roaming. For this I'd propose swapping either Dsham or Glacius out for someone like Soul Reaper.
The other heroes OP mentioned I feel are situational. Panda is great when you suspect a lot of Shrunken Heads (or they picked someone like Predator first), Defiler if you want to push more, Soulstealer is probably too squishy, but great if he gets the farm off. Predator can be swapped out for Armadon if Carnivorous won't have too much effect and you need the tank.
Another unmentioned pick could be Swiftblade for his ult, using his magic Blade Frenzy early game and his physical ult, Counterattack and especially built-in crit (imagine 130%-damage crits) lategame.
The Game. You just lost it.
pesti/demented would work fine for bot lane.
melee heroes can port in to stop a gank just as well if not better then the ranged heroes. Picking up panda or pest and roaming a bit with them works against a hard mid but if the mid is to hard for deadwood don't pick him and grab some one else to mid (ss, defiler, cd.)
If your mid player is getting shut down completely the other team is probably better then you. The strategy is dependent on all of the heroes working well together so even if your mid can't hold his own if your side lanes did well you should still come out on top in team fights.
Its less about getting the -armor and more about having the physical damage to take advantage of the enemy having sub 0 armor. Current meta game using 4 or more ranged heroes might just be a trend that means right now is not the best time to play a -armor team.
If the other team didn't pick engineer I would pick a team around him and ignore a -armor team. As for not pushing early on why would you need to? Gank early/mid game and push mid game and force team fights where you have an advantage.
Keeper is a forth ban(forth ban is in case they ban one of your first 3) just to make sure they don't counter pick you. I would save banning plague until last so if they ban him for you, you can ban keeper as well.
Its a general sort of team that should work against most other teams. There are probably set ups that it is really bad against but that is some thing I can't save for sure based of mostly theory. (need people to play these set ups and talking about them)
This would work rather well.
-armor is more effective early and mid game then late game. Basically what you want -armor to do is reduce the target to 0 armor late game when heroes naturally have more armor and items this becomes harder to do. Early on when they only have maybe 3 armor even the weaker -armor abilities will reduces them to 0.
You don't need every one to have -armor abilities I just pick up a lot of them since they have physical damage abilities which works well with the over all idea of a -armor team.
pandas a great ganker don't see him as situational at all. Armadon is perfect for a -armor team its like that is what he was made for easily a better pick for this kind of set up then predator in my mind.
Swiftblade could work rather well in this set up I am just not in love with him compared to the other melee heroes to pick from.

It is crucial that a -armor team either picks or bans demented shaman. It is impossible for this strategy to work effectively in fights against shaman.
I tried this once when playing BD. Probably my favourite mode btw because seeing possible strategies there mostly beats the classic "strong hero" picks with no strategy.
Remember it working really well. Will have to try make my buddies go for this again soon, will report results.
With the old BS -magic arm was far superior
HB life voids, BS hammers, mag jumps in, behe jumps in and swift mops up. really no counter for it as Idol is the only item and doesnt stack.

Look for my highlighted text (important information) and grey text (interesting but not required information).
I'm simply not a fan of Pandamonium. Also, I see Armadon and Predator as having two different roles. Armadon is carry and AoE-machine, being able to damage everyone for a lot of health, and if they try to kill you, you deal even more damage. Predator is carry/anti-carry, the more health you have the faster you'll go down and the more he heals. Two different picks, both viable. I feel Predator is the better pick here.
There are probably better picks, but he can be a nice against disable or magic-heavy teams (as can Predator though).
I also forgot about Deadwood in my line-up, he can probably instagib. I guess I'd go with Andro (still think she's mandatory), Defiler (not sure), Deadwood mid, Dsham (either pick or ban him) and Predator. Maybe Pest or something for Defiler, but that's triple melee.
A slightly related question: I guess Andro's passive doesn't work on Defiler's ult?
The Game. You just lost it.
I think a DS/Pest lane with SS mid is plenty enough -armour to make a strategy out of it, with initiation potential and powerful physical attacks to make the most of that armour drop. Hopefully both Pest and SS will go for blink, and should get their blinks reasonably early as they are in strong farming lanes (bottle/crow mid).
The other lane would ideally be a kill lane involving Torturer (because he can tear down towers in no time at all, giving the team strong pushing ability). Tort/Magmus or Tort/Voodoo work very well, Tort/Voodoo is less standard but very, very nasty for your average semicarry/babysit combination.
I just think the advantage of a powerful offensive short lane is worth losing more -armour heroes, when you're going to need fast pushing power anyway; Defiler/roaming Andro is a possibility but I'd rather just run over their long lane with double stun.

The Aimpoint Throw Lever Mount is a compact, quick-detach clamp that mounts directly to AR-15/M16/M4 flattop receiver rails for solid, ultra-secure attachment of optics and other holographic sights. The strong, yet lightweight aluminum base is secured to the rail by steel throw levers and locking feet, while a recoil lug locks into one rail slot to prevent unwanted sight movement under recoil. Quick-release levers close securely against the side of the mount to prevent snagging on other objects, yet release easily when you want to remove the sight and mount as one unit without loss of zero. Compact, single-ring mount for Aimpoint CompML, CompML2, CompML3, or similar red dot sight requiring a single 30mm ring. The top half of the ring is machined steel for superior strength and secured by four hex-head screws (wrench included) to ensure full contact with the sight body. Add your choice of 1/2-inch riser mount for co-witnessing with iron sights. The MKII allows for the mount to be adjusted to fit oversized and undersized rails. These adjustments are made by simply turning the screw on the throw lever and rotating the adjustment wheel in the desired direction.

Phils Sign Cliff Lee
Pitcher Cliff Lee, who helped get the Phillies to the 2009 World Series, is returning. Phils Broadcaster Chris Wheeler says he was surprised that Lee turned down a better offer from the Yankees because players do not normally take discounts on their salaries.
"The association gets involved with the agents and all of that, and they always want the player to take the highest number because then it all trickles down to the other guys, and Cliff Lee bucked that trend on all counts and he's going back to where he wants to be, and that's with the Phillies."
Wheeler says Manager Charlie Manuel's respect for the players is probably one reason Lee decided to return, and the Golden Age of Phillies Baseball just got a little shinier. His signing will be complete after he passes a physical exam. Wheeler, a Blue Bell resident, appeared Tuesday on the WNPV talk program Comment Please by Univest.

I used Logitech trackman marble trackball with snow leopard OS X 10.6.8 successfully, but now that I have upgraded to Mountain Lion (new computer) logitech claims its software does not work when I try to download it.

WASHINGTON — Russia's proposal for Syrian President Bashar Assad to place his chemical weapons under international supervision and then destroy them is quickly gaining steam. Assad's government accepted the plan Tuesday morning. A few hours later, President Barack Obama, British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Francois Hollande announced that they'd seriously explore the proposal. It already has the backing of United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and a growing number of influential lawmakers from both parties. There's just one problem: the plan would be nearly impossible to actually carry out.
Experts in chemical weapons disposal point to a host of challenges. Taking control of Assad's enormous stores of the munitions would be difficult to do in the midst of a brutal civil war. Dozens of new facilities for destroying the weapons would have to be built from scratch or brought into the country from the U.S., and completing the job would potentially take a decade or more. The work itself would need to be done by specially trained military personnel or contractors. Guess which country has most of those troops and civilian experts? If you said the U.S., you'd be right.
"This isn't simply burning the leaves in your backyard," said Mike Kuhlman, the chief scientist for national security at Battelle, a company that has been involved in chemical weapons disposal work at several sites in the U.S. "It's not something you do overnight, it's not easy, and it's not cheap."
The decades-long U.S. push to eliminate its own chemical weapons stockpiles illustrates the tough road ahead if Washington and Damascus come to a deal. The Army organization responsible for destroying America's massive quantities of munitions says the effort will take two years longer than initially planned and cost $2 billion more than its last estimate. The delay means an effort that got underway in the 1990s will continue until roughly 2023 and ultimately cost approximately $35 billion.
To be fair, the U.S. stockpiles were far larger than Assad's. At its height, the American military possessed 30,000 metric tons of mustard gas, VX and sarin, the nerve agent Assad is alleged to have used to kill more than 1,400 civilians late last month. Assad has similar weapons, but his arsenal is thought to be significantly smaller. On the other hand, the U.S. chemical weapons were stored at just a handful of sites. Assad's have been disbursed across dozens of sites, many of them moveable, so locating all of the facilities would require the complete cooperation of the Assad regime. That, to put it mildly, is far from guaranteed.
Gwyn Winfield, the editorial director of CBRNe World, a magazine that focuses on biological and chemical weapons, said the success of the Russian proposal "depends on Assad making an honest declaration of where his munitions are" because the personnel charged with destroying those weapons can only work at sites they know about. Assad, he noted, would have a clear incentive to hold on to as much of his stockpile as possible.
"The reason why they created this program in the first place was as a deterrent to the expected Israeli nuclear option," he said. "That isn't going to go away."
(Optional add end)
Finding and securing all of Assad's sites would be the first major challenge of implementing the Russian plan, but it would be far from the only one. The U.S. and allied personnel would then have to separate the chemical substances themselves from the warheads of his rockets, artillery shells or missiles that had been designed to carry them to their targets. The work itself would be carried out by either robots, contractors or specially trained troops, but it would still be time-consuming and dangerous.
The next step would be to physically destroy all of chemical weapons, which can be done through one of two basic options. The first involves spraying the chemicals themselves into specialized furnaces and then burning them at around 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit for one or two seconds. Nerve agents like sarin can also be rendered largely harmless by the addition of liquid sodium hydroxide, while mustard gas can be made safe with alkaline water.
Kuhlman and other experts say that either type of destruction would have to be done at individual Syrian weapons sites because it wouldn't be safe to move the munitions to a centralized collection point inside Syria while the fighting was raging. That would mean either building a new permanent disposal facility at each Syrian compound or bringing in newly fielded mobile disposal units from the U.S. The mobile systems have not been tested in an active warzone and may not have the capacity to deal with Assad's huge quantities of weapons.
"Do you really want to have truckloads of chemical weapons driving around Syria during the current situation?" Kuhlman asked.
A senior Defense Department chemical weapons specialist raised a different concern. The official said the biggest security challenge would be keeping the weapons safe while they were in storage waiting to be destroyed, not while they were being moved.
"Does an insurgent group attack a heavily armed convoy of chemical weapons moving from one or more sites to a disposal facility, with lots of response plans and forces on call, or does it wait until the weapons are moved and the nasty military units go away and the disposal operations start," the official said. "The easier target is the disposal facility."
The official said a safer option might involve moving the weapons out of Syria entirely and doing the disposal work in a safer and more secure country.
Cheryl Rofer, who supervised a team responsible for destroying chemical warfare agents at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, said none of the work could be carried out until there was a full cease-fire between Assad and the rebels fighting to unseat him. There are no indications, she noted, that either side was prepared to come to the negotiating table or wind down a civil war that has already been raging for more than two years.
"This is simply dangerous to do while people are shooting at each other," she said.
If the U.S. and Syria came to a deal — a very, very big if — there would still be one major wrinkle. Rofer said that the only two organizations who really know how to get rid of chemical weapons are the Russia and American militaries. Given the amount of time it would take to build and then operate the disposal facilities, those specially trained troops would need to stay in Syria for years. In a war-weary U.S., keeping that many boots on the ground for that long would be an extremely hard sell.

Top 10 most surprising movies filmed in Ireland, see photo gallery
Ireland has a wonderful history on the silver screen. From John Wayne's famous "The Quiet Man" to Roddy Doyle's utterly irreplaceable "Commitments", Ireland has a huge legacy in the film world.
However there are a couple of movies which have been filmed in Ireland but you might never guess.
Here are the top ten most surprising movies filmed in Ireland.
Following this Mel Gibson Hollywood blockbuster the tourism industry of Scotland recorded a boost of over 100 percent. Little did the tourists know that most of the battle scenes were filmed in Ireland.
All scenes depicting London were shot at Bective Abbey, County Meath. The Battle of Stirling Bridge was filmed on the Curragh Plains, County Kildare and the scenes set in York were actually filmed at Trim Castle, County Meath.
2.Saving Private Ryan
The famous opening twenty minutes of "Saving Private Ryan", which is set on D-Day on Omaha beach, were actually filmed in County Wexford.
Filming lasted for two months and took place on Ballinesker Beach, Curracloe Strand. The Irish Defense Forces supplied 2,500 men to act as extras.
3. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
In this number six of the eight films there's a dramatic scene when Harry Potter and Professor Dumbeldore are battling with evil. The camera swoops in towards some cliffs (the Cliffs of Moher, County Clare) and then we spot our two heroes standing on a rock (Lemon Rock, County Kerry).
4.The Princess Bride
This 1987 fairy tale tells the story of heroes whose goal is to rescue a beautiful princess, Buttercup. They are followed by a masked man in black across the sea and up the Cliffs of Insanity (again the Cliffs of Moher, County Clare).
This film is a childhood favorite of million with a star studded cast including Mandy Patinkin, Cary Elwes, Andre the Giant, Peter Cook, Billy Crystal and many others.
5.The Italian Job
In this 1969 classic, staring a very young Michael Caine, all of the jail scenes were actually filmed in Kilmainham Jail, in Dublin.
This is a hugely historically important location for Ireland. This is where many leaders of Irish rebellions were imprisoned and some executed in the prison by the British and latterly in 1923 by the Irish Free State.
6.King Arthur
This 2004 incarnation of the legendary tale of King Arthur and round table was mostly filmed in Ireland. The movie starred Clive Owen, Ioan Gruffudd, Ray Winstone and Keira Knightley.
Britain's beautiful old buildings and structures were in fact mostly filmed in Ardmore Studios, County Wicklow. What might have seemed to be Hadrian's Wall was in fact Ballymore Eustace, County Kildare and the Luggala and Powerscourt Estates in County Wicklow were also used.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. The sciences of Human-Computer Interaction and Interface Design are very well represented in electronic games. Menus, buttons, toggles, and making selections is inherent to the process of interacting with almost every game ever made. Because most games provide an interface unique unto that title, standardized conventions of design can be few and far between. Because most platforms have different methods of input, no one action can be trusted to behave the same way from one game to the next. Whether you find it bacon-saving or redundantly annoying, some games choose to confirm your actions immediately after you make them, as though you might have made the choice mistakenly. This design element can serve as a guard against hasty decisions, but most often doubles the amount of time and interactions required for the player to make decisions. It can triple the actions required if the confirmation defaults to No. Example: navigating and selecting a menu option that says Load Data, and then having to choose a Yes or No prompt asking if you would like to load your data.
