Recruitment is OPEN Time zone - Primarily US Play style - Mature group catering to casual and competitive players VOIP - Ventrilo Server. Required IP:: 22.214.171.124 port :: 3816 Application - Members must register on forum and drop application Sabotage is born Sabotage was originally started with a group of friends who enjoyed playing games together after work and family time. Over the years we have played multiple games from Guild wars, Darkfall 1.0 to Tera and some others in between. We are mostly from 30+ in age and we have members from Florida to California. Statement Sabotage Gaming is a multi-gaming guild of mature adults aged 18+, united in a desire to cooperate, enjoy and assist each other in a shared MMO gaming experience. If you would like to join Sabotage you have to be at least 18 years old and considered to be a mature player by yourself as well as others. By mature we mean relaxed and laid back, yet serious when required, friendly and willing to help others and above all tolerant and willing to compromise when needed. Sabotage Gaming above all, wants to keep gaming what it is intended for: fun Guilds, rules, and structure are an added element which serves to enhance the game play of players. But when being part of a guild becomes laborious; when it starts to feel more like a second job then it's no longer fun anymore. Our goal is to create & maintain such a structure that we are able to keep the fun in the guild while avoiding over-zealous, senseless rules that do not reflect our founding principles. Being an adult guild, we expect all our members to treat each other in an honorable and respectful manner at all times. While we acknowledge that human relations are never perfect and that tensions between members will arise from time-to-time, we prefer that conflicts are handled at the lowest possible level, with officer intervention only when all other options have been exhausted. Also, we will not tolerate "unnecessary drama" from our members: while we will always strive to protect the rights of our individual members, we will not allow any single person to hinder the enjoyment of the collective guild. The goal of the Sabotage Gaming is to provide a fun and relaxing environment where adults can find like-minded individuals to enjoy the multi-player online gaming experience. We are the casual guild with some hardcore elements. We pvp, plan events, do all the stuff hardcore guilds do but in a casual way, we don't claim to be elitist or Uber, we work full-time, have families, but spend a whole lot of time in-game too RECRUITMENT We welcome anyone looking for a place to call home. Our recruitment application is friendly and fairly simple. So whether you have been playing MMOs for years or if this is your first guild, Sabotage welcomes ALL who share a passion for gaming in a productive environment. Although we strive to reach endgame content in every game we enter, we also understand that real life always takes precedent over the game. You dictate your playtime and your play style. We have members in every US time zone. -Leadership- Hephaestus Xii Trash Gordon Wicked Mind --Currently Playing or Preparing for-- For further information http://sabotagegaming.net/ |

Are you ready to get festive? I hope so, because we're throwing a Cinco de Mayo blog party. The lovely Anita from Hungry Couple was nice enough to invite me to a food blogging group that celebrates the holidays with delicious recipes. Today we're sharing our favorite Mexican recipes for Cinco de Mayo.
I hope you like cheese. I mean, who doesn't? It's only the best thing on the face of the earth. To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, I made a big ol' bowl of creamy queso blanco full of spicy peppers.
It's cheese. It's dip. It's cheese dip!
In my world, the phrase "too much cheese" doesn't exist. The cheesier, the better.
This dip is extremely easy to make. Sauté the peppers, add the cheese and milk, and stir until melted and gooey–only 10 minutes to cheesy bliss!
If you're making this dip for a party, I recommend keeping it warm in a crockpot so it stays melted and creamy…or you can serve right away and eat the entire bowl by yourself. I like to offer options.
If you really want to throw a Cinco de Mayo party, then I suggest pairing this dip with a cold Corona or frozen margarita. It's a must, really!
Happy Cinco de Mayo!

The Georgia Department of Labor announced today that Georgia's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for January was 8.7 percent, unchanged from December. The rate was 9.3 percent in January a year ago. There was a loss of 47,700 mostly seasonal jobs and an increase in initial claims for unemployment insurance benefits over the month, but the increases were not enough to impact the unemployment rate. "The good news in this report is that we lost the fewest jobs for January since 1987," said State Labor Commissioner Mark Butler. "And, we start the year with 79,600 more jobs in January than we had in the same period a year ago." The number of jobs increased to 3,956,300 from 3,876,700 in January 2012. Most of the over-the-year job growth came in professional and business services, 25,500; leisure and hospitality, 21,300; education and health care, 16,100; trade, transportation, and warehousing, 13,000, and manufacturing 5,800. The number of first-time claims for unemployment insurance benefits, resulting from layoffs during the month, increased by 20,669 to 71,530 from 50,861 in December. The increase is mostly from seasonal layoffs in manufacturing, administrative and support services, construction, and retail trade. However, the number of initial claims was down by 6,226, over the year, dropping from 77,756 in January 2012. Most of the over-the-year decline came in manufacturing, retail trade, construction, accommodations and food services, and transportation and warehousing. Georgia's labor force grew by 15,704, reaching 4,846,362 in January, its highest level since July 2008. The labor force has grown by 54,127, or 1.1 percent, from 4,792,635 in January 2012. The number of long-term unemployed workers declined by 3,700 to 191,300 in January, its lowest level in 35 months. The long-term unemployed-those out of work for more than 26 weeks-make up 45.2 percent of those unemployed in Georgia. Connect with us on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter @GeorgiaDOL.

To support the management of Colorado's wildlife resources, the Mammals Research section acquires and produces research information for the Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW). Scientific-based original research is conducted that advances the profession's and agency's collective knowledge about wildlife species, their habitats, and their future management. Contemporary research projects and issues span the size of mammals in Colorado, ranging from the tiny Preble's meadow jumping mouse to cougars to moose.
The Mammals Research section conducts projects utilizing appropriate scientific experimental designs, techniques and analyses with the goal of providing objective, reliable, pertinent and cutting-edge knowledge. The intention is to anticipate knowledge needed to manage wildlife species in a constantly changing and confining human-dominated environment and use that vision to help guide the research program. Part of the research program's responsibility is to push the envelope of developing and applying new research information to the management of mammals and their related plant and animal species.
The section has a long-standing working relationship with Colorado State University through the Department of Fish, Wildlife and Conservation Biology, College of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences, many other departments on the CSU campus and the USDI Colorado Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit. Over the decades, much of the research conducted by the Mammals section was funded by federal aid in wildlife restoration Pittman-Robertson Funds along with CPW game cash funds and, more recently, funding also includes donations from Great Outdoors Colorado, the private business sector and private individuals though agency-sponsored programs. The research program presents research results through various verbal presentations, annual reports and scientifically peer-reviewed written publications.
The Mammals Research Section strives to maintain a proud tradition of conducting quality research - as was recognized by The Wildlife Society, which presented the Group Achievement Award in 1986 to the Wildlife Research section of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife "for their exceptional cumulative record of scholarly contributions to the science of wildlife management." An article summarizing the history and purpose of research sections in the CPW, "Solving Tomorrow's Wildlife Problems," can be found in the November/December 2006 issue of Colorado Outdoors.

Former Research Leaders In the 1960s and 1970s, the Mammals section was a big game research section with a primary focus towards deer, elk, antelope and bighorn sheep and these species respective range-habitat issues. Reflecting broadening agency responsibilities, the spectrum of the section in the early 1980s widened to include large carnivores and threatened species. During this time, the section's size of staff and diversity of projects necessitated two research leaders to oversee Cervid and Non-Cervid research programs within the Mammals section. In the 1990s, the section returned to having one research leader.

Just answered the call for TPU crunchers to help the f@h team. Switched both 9800GX2 cards in my system specs over to the team; just finished my first WU.
Hi I'm sneeky, What is all this folding you speak of, and will my X800GTO be able to make good numbers? Sorry I was bored and see the opening
Probably enough to make you ~15th in PPD daily. Pretty nice for one card. Dhoshaw, I added you to the Current Status of F@H Teammates.
Not really great with introductions but im now folding for techpowerup under Arrakis using my GTX260 pulling in about 6k - 9k ppd with a 1600mhz shader clock - - my formal introduction
Correct Moonpig. The 8800GTX is G80(90nm) and creates alot of heat. If you have the card, fold it. I would not buy the card to fold, as your money can be spent better elsewhere.
Hi everyone, I was waiting to have everything set up before I made my introduction. I'm currently running 2x notfred vmware images on my Q9550 and 2x gpu clients tray clients on my 4670s for a total of ~7k ppd. The great thing is, the system is still silent
I guess I should say Hi and tell you that I used to fold alot under variouse names years ago.. I gave it up cause my systems just couldn,t keep up anymore. But I,ve built a new rig and will contribute again Btw my fahmon is telling me 9300 ppd on a overclocked gtx 275 going at 720 mhz I don,t know about the cpu yet only have 1 client running right now and just increased my clocks to 4.2ghz but temps are great so I'll add another client very soon.. I cannnt sleep so thought I,d come in say Hi and raise blck to 200 x 21 and to a stress test
Looks good, but I would drop that core down to about the 620 to 650 range and raise your shaders to 1620 to start with. Good luck with your folding.
Seeing as I've been around here for a bit and folded a tad on and off, I thought it might be best to say hi on this thread. I used to fold while I was away from my pc for classes, but I started to slow down when the summer heat started. Though I've started up again, and I've also just bought a GTX 275, so I will be sure to put that thing to work while I'm away in class. My old card (an 8800gt) will be put to work and won't have a break. I have an old P4 which has been turned into a file/print server running on my LAN, so I can just stick it in there and make it do WUs 24/7.

Lake Effect's Stephanie Lecci will conclude her series Friday on death and dying in the 21st century. She joined WUWM's Bob Bach during Morning Edition, to discuss the reasons she addressed the subject and what the series uncovered.
Yesterday on our death and dying in the 21st Century series, we heard about a special group of volunteers who work with the Final Hours Program at Horizon Hospice and Home Care. In patients' homes and in the hospice's inpatient unit in Mequon, these volunteers sit with patients as they approach the last hours of their lives. The volunteers offer support to the patients and their families in what is a very difficult time...but what is the experience like for the volunteers?
WUWM environmental reporter Susan Bence brings us the story of attempts to quantify how the fish population is doing on the Milwaukee River in Ozaukee County.
Sometimes, despite the best efforts of doctors and the determination of a patient, there's just nothing more to be done to fight against a terminal illness. As we heard yesterday on our death and dying in the 21st century series, palliative care can then offer medical, emotional and even spiritual support as treatment to cure a life-threatening illness transitions into quality-of-life management.

As the legislative session kicks off this year, there are several key issues that will be addressed. One of the most pressing of those issues, is the issue of payday lending.
Payday lenders offer short-term loans called cash advances, or payday loans. In theory, the idea of borrowing some quick cash when one needs it, sounds like a good idea. The only problem is, it doesn't work that way. I know, because I was a payday lender. I was also a customer.
It works like this. A financially-strapped customer walks into a payday loan center. He provides some basic personal information, and a personal check. The lender offers a loan, based on the customers gross income, and then the customer writes a personal check for the amount borrowed, plus a fee of $10 for every $100 borrowed. The customer is given a due date two to four weeks in the future, when he must return with his payment of the amount borrowed, plus the fee. At that point, his check is returned to him and the loan is closed. Sounds like a done deal, right? Not exactly.
The truth is this. Ninety to ninety-five percent of payday loan customers continue to borrow and re-borrow, and in many cases, it goes on for years. They simply pay one loan, and then take another one out for the same amount right on the spot. In the end, consumers pay thousands of dollars in payday loan fees, for something they'd be better of without. In fact, I can't think of any other "product" that is more useless than the payday loan.
Payday lenders also charge an APR of 260% for their loans. Yet, they will tell you not to pay attention to the APR, since their loans are short-term and fee-based, and shouldn't be subjected to annual percentage rates. Then why in 2007 did Congress make payday lending to members of the military illegal? Because they deemed payday lending "a threat to our national security."
Thirteen other states have already outlawed this predatory form of lending, and now is the time for Rhode Island to be the next state to ban this ridiculous practice. If not, these out-of-state and out-of-country lenders will continue to make huge profits at the expense of decent, hard working Rhode Islanders.
What you've read is the truth about payday lending. Don't believe the industry's lies and rhetoric. The time is now for payday lending reform in Rhode Island.

You pawn a $1,000 dollar ring and get $200 on the condition you pay it back in 30 days or they keep the ring. You sign a contract to do this knowing the penalty.
You default on the contract you lose the ring. You get a loan from a bank for a car or a house, and default or make a late payment; You are either losing the car or house, a reasonable penalty. No difference then this business. Banks depend on the payments to make money for their stock holders, and in this case the owner of the business is the stock holder.
I do not default on my water, or any other bill, because I make sure they are paid first. If I cannot afford it I do what ever I can to make sure they are paid on time. If that means I must get a 2nd job or do with out other amenities in the family or life stye then you do it period. Government is not a business!!! It is a nessisary requirement for any civil society period.

Wrong Dan D. If the business is in violation of the law, it is your responsibility to reprot them to the proper authorities. If you do not then you are as guilty as the business violating the law, because you won't report them. Do you allow criminals to rob you and sit back and say oh well it happens and take the loss?
Jack Baillargeron
February 12, 2013 at 04:07 PM
We all know there are Bad Laws and this one was in my opinion. Don't like it then change it; if you are one who uses these places and feel they are wrong. That is called redress under the US Constitution. If you feel they are violating the law, report them. If you like getting taken over the coals and just whine about it and sit back and do nothing. Well then you are at fault and a fool if you are sitting at home waiting for people who do not use it to change it for you. Get some back bone and complain to the State not just sit and do the woe is me dance in my opinion.

Ted it come from; "14th Amendment guarantees "equal protection of the laws", since all States have mandates for Public education, Under the 14th Amendment the Supreme Court has ruled many times that it must be applied equaly to all citizens. Therfore the Constitution up hodls the rights of education. Most famous case was Brown vs the board of education, when Blacks were denied the same right to education as whites.
If anyone knows of a State that does not mandate basic education, I would love to know which one it is. Far as I know it is mandated in all 50 States and territories.
Ted Geisel
February 12, 2013 at 04:58 PM
The Constitution does mandate equal protection under the law. I'm not arguing that Jack. You said "Schools, same thing, that are mandated by the Constitution and the right of all citizens for grades 0-12 and a mandate by law for all citizens to send their children too. No choice at all." They aren't mandated by the Constitution at all. Equal treatment under the law is mandated by the Constitution. If RI changed it's law tomorrow would the Constitution have any say? You should look into San Antonio Independent School District v Rodriguez. The SCOTUS said there was not a fundamental right under the constitution. Per the SCOTUS: " Though education is one of the most important services performed by the State, it is not within the limited category of rights recognized by this Court as guaranteed by the Constitution."
I believe you are correct that all states mandate some form of education but the majority of them (I counted 35) only do so until the age of 16 which is not K-12 like you stated above. RI for example: "Every child who has completed or will have completed six (6) years of life on or before September 1 of any school year and has not completed sixteen (16) years of life shall regularly attend some public day school during all the days and hours that the public schools are in session in the city or town in which the child resides."
Jack Baillargeron
February 12, 2013 at 05:16 PM
Ted, I did forget about the right to opt out at age 16 which is in most States. But the rest of my post stands as I cannot forsee any State sunddenly saying they will no longer provide public education, and most States have it in their Constitution in any case.
It is a right that the States have, as all rights not expressly in the Constitution are reserved for the States. Having said that the Federal government has found a loop hole in denying Federal aid if they do not follow guide lines from the department of education. Personally I think that is wrong and a violation of States rights.
I also think the recent ruling on Obamacare may effect that. The Court said that the Fed could not force State to set up exchanges by denying Federal Funds if they don't. I suspect some lawyers will sue on that concerning Education. It is a fact that many of the Department of education Mandates have destroyed School system across the Country forcing the increase in taxes enormously to meet these mandates.
This however is a subject for a another blog for sure. It is complex and very divisive because so many do not know how much the Fed government is involved in education. Again in violation in my opinion, infringing on States rights.
As well as the States cannot have any law that Violates the US Constitution, so defacto, if it is Constitutional it is in the Constitution to me under the 14th Amendment. The Constitution is the last word on law. ;-}
Jack Baillargeron
February 12, 2013 at 05:20 PM
I should have Stated it as mandated to age 16 but provided till 12 grade. My Bad lol
I would also point out that the Founder were very supportive of public education of the populace, especially Jefferson. Many of them Stated and new that in order for a Free Society to evolve, education was paramount.
Ted Geisel
February 12, 2013 at 05:34 PM
I'm not arguing that states don't have laws mandating education Jack. It's just not in the Constitution like you stated. That's all. Read San Antonio Independent School District v Rodriguez, you'd love it. Property Taxes, Equal Treatment under the Law, and Education all in one case, you'd love it. You said it best "It is a right that the States have, as all rights not expressly in the Constitution are reserved for the States."
"I suspect some lawyers will sue on that concerning Education." I suspect some lawyers will sue because the sky is blue and it's Tuesday.

Anyone here ever been to Twin River? Of course you have. Tell me there is not perpetual poverty going in and out of that place. How many people take their tax refund and dump it into a one-arm bandit, while connected to an oxygen tank and sucking down a cigarette.
The kicker? You guys voted to expand this dump. Hypocrites.

Ted@ I agree on the lawyers lol. I could have listed proably 100's of cases by the ACLU on the rights to education that have been won every single time. My point as I said is that if it is held up by the Constitution it is Constitutional and therfore part of the Constitution. Anything that set a Constitutional Precident is part of the Constitution until it is overturned or Amended. Granted my take on it, but also pretty much historically proven ;-}.
I did read that case breif, but it is one the distribution of funds and discrimination. I know they said no fundimental right in the 14th. However the thing with that is the right under the 14th exist only if the States have a madated law for public education. So for me that case is not really relevent in that it was about funding disparity, which also has been sued for in this State for the same reason. I think it was Centralfalls and I believe Bristol/Warren tried it also when Sundun did not follow through with all the funding for the regionalization, but still funded other districts fully that were not regionalized. Not sure but seem to remember that happening and we lost, since distribution of funding is the purview of the General Assembly and redress is through them not the courts I think was the ruling.
Sadly Education is so screwed up in this State and Country. I have a plan but it would never happen, it makes to much sense I think lol. Posted it before but I think we are getting way off topic lol.

February 12, 2013 at 06:30 PM
Nelson, you can not get a payday loan without pay stubs. It is a "payday" loan, it works that you have to be able to pay the loan back on the date you yourself receive your paycheck from work. You also must have an active bank account.
You can't just walk into a payday loan center as a homeless person and expect money on the spot.

" I could have listed proably 100's of cases by the ACLU on the rights to education that have been won every single time." But you didn't...
You seem to have a unique view on the Constitution. I can eat ice cream just like you. We're are equally protected in our right to eat ice screen. To say it's part of the Constitution because of the equal protection clause is kind of out there though and that seems to be what you're saying.

Ted@ Not a fan of the ACLU by a long shot, but sometimes they do get it right, but most times are just breaking the banks of States to make money now and have lost their true mandate a long time ago in my opinion..
My view I do not think is out there, because any law that is passed, must pass the Constitutional test. If it is Constitutional then that proves the Constitution, which is the "Law of the land" as they say, is part and parcel the same. I see no other way to look at it. I may not be explaining it as well as I am thinking it, but oh well, times have changed and so has this senior brain lol.
The Constitution is the document that confirms whether a law is legal, bottom line is it not?
Ted Geisel
February 12, 2013 at 07:20 PM
I thought I could write a lot Jack. Where do you find the time and energy? ;)
Your original statement was "Schools, same thing, that are mandated by the Constitution and the right of all citizens for grades 0-12 and a mandate by law for all citizens to send their children too." I disagree that they are mandated by the Constitution. Mandated being the key word there. The Constitution says if you have something it has to be equal for everyone but that is far from a mandate on education.
Jack Baillargeron
February 12, 2013 at 08:49 PM
OK Ted@ How about this.
Constitution of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations
Section 1. Duty of general assembly to promote schools and libraries. -- The diffusion of knowledge, as well as of virtue among the people, being essential to the preservation of their rights and liberties, it shall be the duty of the general assembly to promote public schools and public libraries, and to adopt all means which it may deem necessary and proper to secure to the people the advantages and opportunities of education and public library services.
Section 2. Perpetual school fund. -- The money which now is or which may hereafter be appropriated by law for the establishment of a permanent fund for the support of public schools, shall be securely invested and remain a perpetual fund for that purpose.

Ted Geisel
February 12, 2013 at 09:32 PM
Come on now Jack, you know we have been talking about the US Constitution here.
Jack Baillargeron
February 12, 2013 at 09:46 PM
Ahhh contrare Teb, No State Constitution can have anything the does not conform to the US constitution though can it lol.
We are a "Representative Republic" with a guiding principle and law of the US Constitution, and nothing can violate that unless it is Unconstitutional correct?
So anything that is a Constitutional law is within the scope and purview of the US Constitution and therefore one and the same. If someone disagree's with the Constitution there is a little thing in the 1st Amendment that allows redress to change it.
So it matters not what law is passed or Constitution in any State as long as it conforms to the US Constitution it is the same as the law of the land. Though I will admit not all States are required to follow every States laws, because of States rights. We however are talking about every single State that has a mandate for Education, which also happens to be, well all 50 of them ;-}.

I know that some payday lenders charge just crazy interest rates and simply get their consumers into the debt. But on the other hand, why people complain but proceed using this service if it's so predatory and expensive? It's because they believe that it's possible to be in debt, have a low credit and continue borrowing money. Payday loans are easy to get and I think it's the main reason why so many consumers use them. But there are many alternative lending options, today's lending market offers a variety of different loans. It's not worth to get a loan just because it's easy. I understand that many people can't make ends meet and take out payday loans because there's no way out but what do they expect then? If you have serious financial problems, debts and low income then payday loans will not help to change your life into the better. This service is intended for emergencies and it's worth to apply only if you need to borrow small amount of money for a couple weeks and you are sure that you'll be able to pay back.

Christmas Eve
Christmas Eve was actually first telecast on December 22, 1986, but nobody cared about the "error" then, so why should we? Making her first television appearance in 23 years, Loretta Young (her ageless beauty undimmed by her silvery hair) plays a wealthy New York matriarch who learns that she is dying. This strengthens her determination to be reunited with her three grandchildren, whom she hasn't seen in 16 years thanks to a bitter argument with her avaricious son Arthur Hill. As Hill wages a court campaign to have Young declared incompetent and thus get his mitts on her millions, private eye Ron Leibman races against time to locate her lost grandkids before Christmas. Do you honestly think you'll get through Christmas Eve without a box of Kleenex handy? ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Foreign Body
Victor Banerjee, the India-born star of David Lean's A Passage to India, is the central figure of director Ronald L. Neame's Foreign Body. Jobless in Calcutta, Banerjee steals money from his own father to afford passage to Britain. There he makes contact with his cousin Warren Mitchell, who arranges for Banerjee to get a job as a bus conductor. But when he begins to ardently pursue a lovely young white woman, Banerjee loses his job at the behest of the girl's influential father. His luck changes radically when Banerjee administers mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on a bus accident victim, whereupon he is mistaken for a doctor by friendly model Amanda Donohoe (probably the nicest she's ever been on film). Donohoe talks up the skills of this "new Indian doctor", and before he knows what has hit him, Banerjee is head physician to the Prime Minister of England--with virtually every woman in the land vying for his services in bed! Never letting on where it is heading next, Foreign Body is adapted from an equally tricky novel by Roderick Mann. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This French-Belgian co-production is set in a remote, squalid South African farm. Jane Birkin stars as Magda, the "proper" farmer's daughter who murders her father (Trevor Howard) when she learns of an affair between him and a local woman (Nadine Uwampa). By rights, Magda should leave for parts unknown at this point. Instead, she becomes obsessively involved in the lives of her father's mistress and her native husband (John Matshikiza). An inevitable second tragedy results. A multiple award winner, Dust was adapted by director Marion Hansel from In the Heart of the Country, a novel by J.M. Cotezee. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Flashpoint Africa
The role of media manipulation of the news is also the starring role in this political drama involving a female broadcast journalist who travels to Africa to cover a breaking story about a revolution, only to have her material cut and recast back in her London studios. Lisa Ford (Gayle Hunnicutt), her cameraman (Siegfried Rauch), and her Cuban advisor (James Faulkner) are taken to the head of the guerrilla forces (Ken Gampu) who holds two young women hostage (to attract world attention to his cause). As the cameraman films the story and Lisa adds her commentary, they themselves have to choose and select what they show since there is not enough air time to run hours and hours of videotape. Once their installments reach the program controller in London (Trevor Howard), he uses his own judgment to basically censor Lisa's story. Although director Francis Megahy's point is well-taken, it may be stated one too many times for some viewers -- for others, perhaps, it could not be stated enough. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

In this uneven dramatization of a legendary sword-and-sorcery tale, the Green Knight (Sean Connery) is a magician who appears at King Arthur's court brandishing an axe and challenging anyone to do battle with him. When no one responds, King Arthur himself steps into the breach -- but is turned back when Gawain (Miles O'Keeffe) takes up his axe to stand in for the king -- and promptly decapitates the Green Knight. But lo-and-behold, the Knight's magic is so great that he puts head and body back together again and then further challenges Gawain with a riddle that must be solved within the next 12 months or Gawain is dead. Lucky for Gawain, the riddle involves several rescues of the charming Princess Linet (Cyrielle Claire) -- but how will he manage to outfox the Green Knight and the evil Morgan La Fay (Emma Sutton)? ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

It was Richard Attenborough's lifelong dream to bring the life story of Indian political and spiritual leader Mahatma Gandhi to the screen. When it finally reached fruition in 1982, the 188-minute, Oscar-winning Gandhi was one of the most exhaustively thorough biopics ever made. The film begins in the early part of the 20th century, when Mohandas K. Gandhi (Ben Kingsley), a British-trained lawyer, forsakes all worldly possessions to take up the cause of Indian independence. Faced with armed resistance from the British government, Gandhi adopts a policy of "passive resistance," endeavoring to win freedom for his people without resorting to bloodshed. In the horrendous "slaughter" sequence, more extras appear on screen than in any previous historical epic. The supporting cast includes Candice Bergen as photographer Margaret Bourke-White, Athol Fugard as General Smuts, John Gielgud as Lord Irwin, John Mills as the viceroy, Martin Sheen as Walker, Trevor Howard as Judge Broomfield, and, in a tiny part as a street bully, star-to-be Daniel Day-Lewis. Gandhi won eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Director. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Inside the Third Reich
The two-part TV movie Inside the Third Reich was based on the extraordinary revelatory (if self-serving) autobiographical book by Albert Speer. Played herein by Rutger Hauer, Speer is a young man of privilege in pre-Hitler Germany who happens to be a brilliant architect. Becoming a member of Hitler's inner circle, Speer is appointed the Nazi regime's master builder. According to this film, Speer is egomaniacal and ambitious, but somewhat blinded to the inherent evils of Nazism. Though he'd later claim to be ignorant of Hitler's horrific policies aimed at the Jews, he was certainly aware of the use of Jewish prisoners as slave labor: as Germany's armaments minister during World War II, Speer exploited these enslaved unfortunates as much as anyone, if not more so. The cast includes Derek Jacobi as Hitler, Blythe Danner as Speer's wife Margarethe, John Gielgud as Speer's father, Ian Holm as Goebbels, Maurice Roeves as Hess, and George Murcell as Goering. Originally running 5 hours, Inside the Third Reich was filmed in Munich; it was first telecast on May 9 and 10, 1982. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Set in India during World War II, this fair action drama relies heavily on the good acting talent gathered to convey its slight, uninvolved story. Gregory Peck is Col. Lewis Pugh, backed up by Roger Moore as Capt. Gavin Stewart, David Niven as Col. Bill Grice, Patrick MacNee as Major Crossley, and several others -- all retired and past the age for active duty. At issue are three German freighters that are parked in the waters off Goa, the Portuguese coastal colony on the subcontinent of India. Since Portugal is neutral, the regular army cannot destroy the freighters, and it is up to the retired army officers and a large corps of over-the-hill volunteers to take on the mission of eliminating the German ships. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Trevor Howard stars as the titular Native American chief in Windwalker. Told in flashback, the film relates the early life of the Cheyenne chief, with particular emphasis on the deaths of his wife and son at the hands of the Crow tribe. In the interests of authenticity, the actors converse in the Crow and Cheyenne languages, compelling the producers to fit the film out with English-language subtitles.

The Shillingbury Blowers
An old-fashioned drama about old-fashioned values in an old-fashioned town called Shillingbury, this conventional film may not be quite the ticket for a more cynical, demanding audience (whatever their age). Pop musician Peter (Robin Nedwell) and his wife Sally (Diane Keen) take refuge in Shillingbury when their mod, mad life in the Big City gets more than they can handle. The problem is that the small town's band assaults the senses, especially the musical senses, every time the group gathers to play. They can empty out a room quicker than a fire alarm. So Peter agrees to take them on, coach them, and bring back an audience. As a result, the band members rebel because they love their old leader, Saltie (Trevor Howard) and resent his being shoved aside. Their rebellion, it turns out, produces exactly the opposite of what everyone in the town had expected, including themselves. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Though Colonial India is a thing of the past, the couple clings to their fading memories of the Raj's glory days.

PM: Infrastructure will lift Isan
- Published: 19 Oct 2013 at 11.56
- Online news: News
Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra on Saturday reaffirmed her government's commitment to improve transport and tourism in the Northeast through transport infrastructure investments.
Speaking live from Nong Khai on the weekly Yingluck Government Meets the People programme on NBT, the premier also defended her government's plans to build more dams to manage water better.
Transport system development in Isan, she said, was part of the 2-trillion-baht infrastructure development programme for which the government is seeking borrowing approval.
The megaprojects include a high-speed rail link between Bangkok and Nong Khai and a four-lane highway to Nong Khai.
The premier said the northeastern province could benefit from tourism through more promotion of its attractions including the naga fireballs on the Mekong River.
The government is planning to upgrade many border checkpoints in the Northeast as special trade zones to increase trade and investment in the border provinces, she added.
The premier also insisted that it was necessary for the government to build dams to contain water and prevent flooding.
The projects would cause some damage to the environment, particularly forest areas, she acknowledged. However she maintained that reforestation projects would plant three times as many trees as those lost.
Asked whether her government would stay on until its full four-year term ends, Ms Yingluck said that would depend on what the people want.
Discussing the ongoing anti-government protests, the premier said the government was ready to listen to all opinions and suggestions and would use peaceful means in dealing with protesters.

You might be able to build a sports car with experience alone. But never a Porsche – and especially not a 911 GT3. That takes much more: engineers who are dedicated to the development of race cars right from the start. Whose passion is for motorsport, above all else. Engineers who firmly oppose any form of compromise. Developed from the heart. The new 911 GT3.
At the heart of the new 911 GT3 is a new engine. A development from motorsport, of course. An engine with more power than its predecessor, but with a similar level of fuel consumption.
The key data: a flat-six Boxer engine located right at the back for a low center of gravity and increased traction on the drive axle. The displacement has been increased to 3.8 liters. The engine has advanced VarioCam, a system for adjusting the inlet camshafts, and now also the outlet camshafts. This gives even more Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) ensures a responsive drive and superior handling.
Everything that's crucial for use on the racetrack can be adjusted on the chassis, including the settings for height, camber, toe angle and the anti-roll bars on the front and rear axles.
Also, for the first time, the 911 GT3 has Porsche Stability Management (PSM) with two control systems: Stability Control (SC) to help provide stabilization within the limits of driving dynamics and Traction Control (TC) to regulate the longitudinal dynamics and improve acceleration on various road surfaces. Both systems can be disabled completely in two stages – for an active driving experience on the racetrack.
One feature that has come directly from motorsport is the central locking device for the newly designed 19-inch GT3 wheels. The road-approved sport tires are designed to enable higher cornering speeds, as well as precision handling on the road or racetrack. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is included as standard.
Everything on the new 911 GT3 is designed to save weight. The doors and front hood are made from aluminum and the new engine cover is made from a lightweight synthetic material. The result: a weight-to-power ratio of just 7.1 lb/hp.
Even everyday use has been considered, with a new optional ride-height lift system for the front axle. At low speeds, the front of the vehicle can be raised by 30 mm if there is a risk of it grounding.
Our approach to safety is as uncompromising as usual, in terms of both active and passive safety features. New compound brake discs with aluminum monobloc calipers and a totally reinforced but lighter braking system offer excellent performance, even in extreme conditions. The Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) is also available as an option. The latest in communication technology is also included with the new standard CDR-30 audio system or the latest optional Porsche Communication Management (PCM).
The new 911 GT3. Developed from the heart so that you do not have to make compromises.

text: I actually think this news is refreshing. New minds, new coders - fewer bugs, timely fixes. Personally, I don't mind paying for a good product. In our hobby, we shell out huge bucks for hardware; why not put a few bucks on the software that can help make things more managable. HRD is a great program, but we all know it has its blemishes. It would be great to have those bugs fixed and perhaps see some innovative enhancements. Everything costs money. Coders have families as well. Give them a fair chance to show what they can do. If you are not satisfied - move on to something else - just quit all the whining - it is unmanly, you know:-)

These people are prepared to spend unconceivable amounts of personal money to defeat Obama. Why?
Have they been making less money under his presidency than under Bush's?
Adelson is making most of his money, as I understand it, from casinos in other countries. Why is he so intense in his desire to defeat Obama?
These people have done extremely well under all our presidents, so I can't see why they care so much.
