Hi. Today I purchased my new spéakers, are a X-530 model from Logitech, need to say It's my first 5.1ch setup. The problem is I'm using Vista and the speakers doesn't work properly, when trying to play a music file it only sounds on STEREO (subwoofer+2 speakers), but setting the setup to 5.1ch using control panel ALL the speakers sounds fine, VERY ODD. I readed various post about this issue, and they say that Vista SUCKS rendering 5.1/7.1ch, but the posts was kinda outdated (more than a year ago). Is it possible that I'm doing something wrong????, I NEED TO CONFIRM that the speakers works fine, It had 1 month of warranty and I'll return to my home tomorrow and I'll not be able to go back here after 4-5 weeks.
Well load up a movie or game that actually uses 5.1 audio to verify, I have the 2.1 X230 set, have for years, great speakers. I save 5.1 duty for my Turtle Beach HPA2's which kick ass, I love em! But, if the output isn't set to spatialize/expand the sound from stereo to multi-channel, then don't expect surround. There's a simple setting in Creative's X-Fi panel for this, and my onboard Realtek too iirc, but it sounds odd in surround, I prefer stereo channels for stereo output tbh. If there's a setting for channel expand or something similar you should be ok. It might add 3d affects, might not, depends on what you're using for a sound device and what it's software supports.
Ok, I'm testing the speakers on my sister's in law house, using a P4 3.2Ghz, 768MB RAM, and a Realtek 7.1 HDA. My new mobo is a Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3 that uses Realtek HDA too. So knowing this is there a way to play music files/normal videos, and all other kind of music files that don't use 5.1ch USING ALL THE SPEAKERS??? It's kinda a waste having 5 speakers and only use 2, also, is there a way to make it work in Vista or I must use a 5.1 DVD capable??? Thanx again...
You've tried going to the control panel and clicking on the realtek icon and changing it to 5.1speakers?
I have the X-540's and mine do the same thir is nothing wonrg with them. 5:1 only works if you are listening to something that uses :51 like crysis or a movie...what i do go into the audio CP and set up 5:1 as your supposed to. then in like media player. im unsure if your setup has this but i have a seperate volume/sub controller with my setup. what you have to do is press the "matrix" button this forces 2:1 channel audio to be utilized through all of the speakers. the speakers are functioning properly its just that your problem is something that is technically supposed to happen most song tracks are only 2:1 channel thus anything more and the extra speakers will not work. if you do not have a matrix button than you might need to find a media player that can force 5:1 channel via the options as far as i know WMP cannot do this.
I suppose it depends on how you look at it, but really 2.1 even on your setup will still sound good, and with music you will have overpowering hi's that may require turning up the bass on the sub (mine is at min volume and still shakes stuff on my desk). I don't have the realtek stuff loaded atm because I'm using my X-Fi, but one make sure you set the sound to 5.1 in realtek, and make sure that windows' main sound speaker config is also set to 5.1. Then you gotta find a setting that will expand 2 channel to 6 channel. I believe it's more of a multispeaker 3D setting in realtek than actual expansion, but I can't quite recall, though depending on what you use to listen to music/watch movies, there might be options for upsampling to 5.1 audio for sound output from a 2 channel source.
and WHERE I can find the Realtek CP, I download and installed the lastest driver a month ago, and I cannot find any Realtek CP, just the Vista Sound CP, and I already set the speakers at 5.1ch. Help please!!
Did you download and install the driver from the MB MFG? If not you won't get the driver that includes the control panel w/eq and sound output settings. Let MS Update take care of newer drivers after you installed the base MB sound driver package.
Some says PowerDVD had the feature that you're talking about, I'll trying to installing right now and see what happens....also, do you know if winamp had the featrure?? by any chance do you know if Realtek HDA has the MATRIX button???, I'll be using a EP35-DS3 mobo in my main rig. the last...so I'm OK if I use Vista???, some says that using XP improves the 5.1ch performance. thanx.
sorry for that, I'll try to pay more atention, It's that I'm not speak english, so some times I tend to misread or don't get the full idea.
I don't think there's a big issue with sound between XP and Vista, I have yet to notice an issue with 5.1 sound on my onboard and X-Fi in the last year I've been on Vista. I didn't use 5.1 back in 07 during my first run with Vista because I had no speakers/headset's capable at the time. Personally I think 5.1 "performance" is a minimal issue, not really sure what you mean by that...if the sound output is 5.1 from the source, and it's set for 5.1 output, you will have 5.1 sound, you may need to tweak the EQ, maybe speaker placement adjust in the realtek CP, etc, but beyond that and the small amount of CPU utilization onboard uses there should be no issues there in XP, Vista, 7 and beyond.
your fine i think winamp does have this option your fin with vista it works amazing with mine., as for the matrix button im talking about this. i have this with my speaker setup. do you have a similar controller? when i press teh matrix button it forces 2:1 -> 5:1 its not a button in the media player...if your setup doesnt have this than i think winamp can do it.
This PC is a Compaq one, and I'm clueless where the heck my sister in law have the drivers, and I'm almost sure the CD only have for the XP OS. When I finish my rig, hope will be finished on monday, I'll search for the matrix button on the Gigabyte HDA CP, but I asked that if it will be the same if I install XP or Vista, some users say that his 5.1ch speakers worked fine under Windows and they had a lot of troubles using Vista.
Understood a shame that my setup doesn't have one, It's a X-530 model from Logitech, It's pretty much a entry 5.1ch model, but I readed good reviews of It.
hmmm ok man then i guess you'll need to try various media players and see if one of them gives you a force output option.
its the CP option that you need. I run a X530 on my current rig. no matter what I have to go into my realtek CP and set for 5.1 and thats it. find out what chip is on the board and go to that manufacturer for drivers. if you already have the lates driver, find the folder in C:>> program files X86 and look for that manufacturer, then in that folder should be the startup bit for your audio drive CP.
I install PowerDVD with no luck, I haven't try a 5.1ch DVD that's will be my next target. Also find a program called SRS Sandbox that some users said that emulates correcty the 5.1ch. Also I wanna ask if an old HDA device can cause poor performance, I dunno what version is this, but this PC is kinda old, like 2 years when buyed, I think It has at least 3yo, could it be that using a more up to date audio chipset can bring more performance, I'm sure that my new mobo has an updated one. I say this 'cause the sound performance even in 2.1ch is VERY POOR, sounds distortioned and the subwoofer barely sounds, I think It's due a some lack of power, I must raise the volume knob to a half to listen the sound, I think this onboard card is too old....or the speakers came damaged/faulty??
I finally make the sound go through all the speakers, but sounds VERY distorsioned, the equ. are the default one, the subwoofer seems to sound ok with no distorsion, also the center and sorround speakers, but the stereo ones sound like crap. Any idea how to solve this??, could it be the speakers or could it be the onboard HDA???
Ok, mid-solve the distorsion sound, low all volume levels to 60 (it was in 100), but even still at 60 I MUST up the speakers volume nearly 100% of It's capacity and they sounds kinda quiet, not "barely" but sounds if my past 2.1ch HT was setted at 30% aprox. So what happens here????, I blame the onboard sound, I think It cannot handle correctly the power output of this setup....and I'm concerned 'cause my new mobo has a Realtek HDA too, hope It'll NOT sound like this or I'll be VERY dissapointed.
also set the room correction to real distances of the speakers to your ears, it will eliminate alot of the cross talk and clear things up!
This is 100% correct, its because MP3 files are recorded in two channels, i.e. stereo. You can not have more channels than the source permits and magically have channels appear just because you decide to connect more speakers. A two channel source file is a two channel source. It's not necessarily to do with Vista. People usually blame vista because there perception of how a soundcard operates is distorted. Don't worry its not broken, lol Your sound card needs to up mix those 2 channels in MP3s into a pseudo "fake" 5.1, not all soundcards have such a feature, but sometimes its called "virtual speakers" or "movie mode" or "multi channel", the name varies. Edit: Your only other alternative is to purchase a sound card which has encoding of Dolby Digital onboard which will upmix two channels into five channels. But you'll need to be using a digital connection and have a speaker system with amplifier. Edit 2: Indeed. It depends on the soundcard and what features it allows for, there are codecs such as CCC which allow for a fake matrix 5.1 in movie files, don't think it will work for MP3s or games. http://www.cccp-project.net/ Edit 4: The explanation that Solaris17 gave is correct!
that "fake" 5.1 can be done quite easily, but the sounds sounds REALLY weird sometimes... just google it

This action packed adventure set in rural Alabama revolves around Moon, a ten-year-old boy who has lived his entire life living off the land in the forest with his father, a Vietnam Veteran survivalist, who dislikes rules and distrusts the government. After his father dies from a broken leg, refusing to see a doctor, Moon is left on his own. Before his father died, he told Moon to go to Alaska so Moon sets out to do this, but folks have different ideas about what is right for Moon. When Moon makes his first friend, tastes his first sweet roll and begs to stay in jail saying it has the, "best bed he ever had", he begins to wonder if everything his father told him was right. This first time novel by author Watt Key left a memorable character in Moon that will not easily be forgotten! Recommended by: Kimberly Andersen, West Indianapolis Library
You get a real sense of what it is to live off the land in this book. The author, Watt Key, lived for 14 days in an Alabama swamp as part of a school project so he knows what he's talking about. This experience eventually lead to Mr. Key writing this story. You can read about what he really experienced as a boy in the woods online and you can also watch a slide show. The description and pictures of some of his swamp dinners, including cottonmouth snake and armadillo, just go to show you what a person will eat when really, really hungry! Author: Watt Key
An Alabama Moon movie is coming, althought I don't know when. Here is a video clip about the premiere on September 27, 2009.

I bought this as an add-on for the kids. I have 3 kids and we decided that the Incredibles and the Monsters, Inc. figures would be theirs since the hubby and I use the pirates (Jack and Davy Jones). The character is very cute and figure is very detailed as well as in the game. The voice is correct and the kids love it. They play as Sully/Mike and Mr. Incredible/Dash. This is also great because the starter pack already includes the world. Even thought I bought it on sale as a BOGO 50% off, I just thought the price should have been $10. The 2-pack set with the world should be $25. The chips at $5 is too much. I could deal with maybe half that price. I may sound cheap, but when you have to buy for 3 or more (including my hubby and myself) you have to be!

My son asked for this character. He enjoys bringing the figure to life in the game. The quality is flimsy, like a McDonalds happy meal toy. Skylanders are cheaper and have much better quality. Coming from Disney, I'd expect more, since we are paying for the brand instead of the quality.

William R. Clark, professor emeritus in the department of molecular, cell and developmental biology at U.C.L.A. and author of a number of popular books, offers the following answer:
Fear¿which in humans ranges from generalized anxiety to specific phobias¿is an important biological adaptation and a common behavior in all mammals. Fear is an emotion, an unspoken memory, stored in special parts of the brain. It provokes individuals to react rapidly, almost instinctively, in the face of perceived danger. Fear can be present in greater or lesser degrees in different individuals. When a tendency to fear is present in excess, its consequences are not always helpful.
As many as one fourth of all Americans will suffer from potentially debilitating anxiety, panic disorders, animal phobias and post-traumatic stress reactions at least once in their lives. These disorders cause not only mental anguish but a variety of real physical symptoms, including localized pain. As with other forms of behavior, we would like to know to what extent fear is learned from environmental experience and to what extent it is influenced by our genetic makeup.
Image: BROOKHAVEN NATIONAL LABORATORY |
The study of fear in animals such as mice has shown that fear can be selectively bred into succeeding generations, suggesting a strong genetic component. Randomly selected mice subjected to an "open-field test"¿a brightly lit, open box with no hiding places¿exhibit a range of different responses. Some mice cower motionless near one wall, defecating and urinating repeatedly, whereas others roam about, sniffing and exploring without concern. Most mice are somewhere between these two extremes. If fearful mice are bred with one another repeatedly over a dozen or so generations, it is possible to develop lines of mice in which all members are highly anxious and fearful in a variety of different tests. But they do not learn this from one another or from their mothers. A newborn mouse from a fearful line, reared by a fearless mother together with fearless siblings, will still be fearful as an adult.
Specific genes associated with such behavior are currently being identified in laboratory mice. Not surprisingly, many of the genes associated with fear or the lack of it encode neurotransmitters or their receptors. These are the molecules within the brain responsible for chemical communication between nerve cells; they ultimately underlie all behavior. Mice lacking functional nerve cell receptors for the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-amino butyric acid) are more fearful than mice with the receptor.
GABA is used by higher regions of the brain to tone down some of the lower brain's initial impulses and may function to decrease overly fearful responses to environmental stimuli. Similarly, mice lacking a receptor in the brain for glucocorticoid stress hormones are much less anxious than control mice. An unexpected category of genes associated with fearfulness in mice includes some of the genes involved in the operation of biological clocks. How these genes relate to fear is unclear at present, but unraveling their role may shed new light on the origins of fear within the brains of people as well as mice.
There is considerable evidence in humans, derived largely from studies of adopted children, and identical and fraternal twins reared together or apart, that a tendency toward anxiety and fear is a heritable trait. The specific form that fear takes¿phobias with specific associations, such as snakes, fear of pain, or of heights or closed spaces¿is almost entirely associated with individual environmental experiences. But the tendency to develop fearful or anxious responses to the environment in general has a clear genetic component.

It is also revealing to see how these experts use emacs for routine tasks while they go about demonstrating new features. Though some screencasts are only visual, without sound, they nevertheless reveal some useful patterns. Learning from screencasts is like looking over the expert's shoulder and silently watching them work.
There are a number of ways of learning, but screencasts have proven unmatched for demonstrating complex command sequences in easy to see, low-cost method.

Maintnenance FTW
By Reed Fiegener in Customer Service, Infrastructure, TechnologyI am a bit of an automotive enthusiast, so when I'm not working, I do spend a fair amount of time browsing automotive websites. I, like many people in the hosting industry, crave information. I like hearing about new design directions, emerging technologies, and past stories about others' experiences with their vehicles. While browsing, I came across some images of the guts of a BMW that had gone in excess of 60 thousand miles without an engine oil change. Needless to say, the internals were slathered with a gummy sludge and the engine was ruined.
Many technologies we use these days have become so common place and are operationally intuitive enough that we are often able to figure them out and use them without ever having to crack open an owner's manual. I bring this up because, many technologies in the hosting industry follow suit. There are a number of developers who create software that is designed to make it easy to host websites. They are marketed as the only solution you ever need and, in some cases, imply that all you need to know is how to use a web browser to successfully host websites, not only for oneself but a plethora of other clients too! The servers run themselves, and you only need to spend a few minutes setting your clients up! It's like free money!
Unfortunately, as the owner of the previously mentioned BMW found out, this is not the case. There are a lot more things going on behind the scenes than just seats and a steering wheel, as are the same with servers. On occasion, we receive support tickets that just say "the site stopped working." In an attempt to gather more information, we will often ask the client a wide range of questions that help us find the problem faster and come up with the best possible solution. However, sometimes the answer from the customer is, "I haven't touched or logged into the server in days/ months/ (hopefully not) years." The more relevant metaphor for this is, "I haven't changed my BMW's oil in years!" Servers are like any other complex machine. They require constant maintenance. This includes: updating anti-virus definitions, monitoring bandwidth usage for anomalous spikes, rotating logs out if they are getting too large (provided some other rotation scheme is not already in place), keeping an eye on disk space usage, and creating a disaster recovery plan and backups. So take some time, get to know your server, and familiarize yourself with good preventative maintenance techniques. Your server, your clients, and your BMW (if applicable) will love you for it.

Vino Salida takes local to a new level, making not only good wines but also being connected in the community in a really positive way. Stop for a tasting and go away with a whole new understanding of wine and local--Vino Salida is a treat!
Loved our wine tasting and wine making tour! Great time with our old friend Steve, the owner. Some of the best wines we've tasted and we do love our wine!
After we past through town, we spotted Vino Salida- needing a bottle of wine, we stopped; however, it's not a liquor store but a local winery! What a pleasant surprise to have stumbled upon this gem! We tried several wines before selecting a red and a sweet mead. Nice people, great find! Can't miss it- it's the pink building!
OK, sure, the Monarch Tram is out there, but Vino Salida is much more a hit, with all due respect... We're talk in' fine red wines, tasty whites, people who pour so much more back into the community in the way of tastings, food pairings, smiles over a nice cool Riesling during an art show, All of the above. Next... More
Love this little winery. Try the Tenderfoot Stomp and the Vino Rosso. Steve the winemaker is making up some great wines!
When we arrived Steve the Vintner was crushing viognier grapes (from western Colorado) and his very pleasant helper took me back and gave me a bunch of grapes to taste. What a treat to savor the surprisingly sweet grapes on their way to being fashioned into such tasty, dry wine! I sampled the 2009 and 2011 viognier and the mead... More
Highly recommend....especially after white water rafting. Wine is really good here. Bought 2 bottles on the spot of their rare foot stomped, "tender foot stomp" merlot. Will go back on next visit to salida and buena vista
This place looks a little unusual from the outside but it is definitely worth checking out. You are greeted at the door by the owner who is excited to offer wine tastings and very passionate when he describes his wines. He offered my boyfriend and I a tour of his winery and even gave a sample from the barrel. I... More
At Salida's 7,000 feet elevation and climate, grapes just don't grow well, so the owner Steve Flynn buys his grapes from vineyards in the western slope of Colorado and California. He makes all his wines and bottles them on premise. Tastings and tours at this small winery are currently free. His white wines are unusual, complex and highly drinkable, while... More
I went for a wine tasting and was pleasantly surprised by the excellent wine and knowledge of their wine. It was a very nice friendly place to try some new wines. The owner gave us the wine tasting and the experience was like talking with a friend. The place seems odd from the outside but you will be pleased with... More

Thoughts On What Drives Me....
Is there a method to my madness? I always hear "Man, you get so much done! How do you do so much so fast?" I gave it some thought and here are my rambling reasons :c)
I tend to choose patterns that work up quickly....they hold my interest because they aren't too tedious and anyone can do them. I also like patterns where I don't have to pin every dang piece to match points. I like it when I can just oppose the seams and sew across them and they match up. (Or not match up, I'm not too stressed out about it being perfect...it is what it is!) I've been known to do whole quilt tops without pinning anything! I do pin the borders in at least 3 places to keep those straight and from waving. It's gotta be scrappy, and it's gotta have more than 3 colors in it. This is why the storm at sea dear jane has been sitting for 2 years. It's pink and brown on one shirting print background....it's torture to work on it!
I've done a few quilts with inset seams, but I really don't enjoy doing them. So I tend to find ways to work around those. I like spikey pokey looking triangles....and things that create alot of movement. I like things busy and scrappy....very seldom will you see calm and serene coming out of my machine!
Some friends about fell over backwards when I showed them a
30's Trip Around The World
that I had done. It was all pastel prints and solids, and mostly LAVENDER! 30's are not my thing...they are too sweet and cute, and everyone knows that I run from them, but this quilt I did was for a shop display and my friend the owner twisted my arm to piece it for her because she knew I'd have it done in no time. When it had finished living at the shop, she sent it back to me to keep and now I have to live with this thing? Ackkkk! (My apologies to all the lovers of 30's prints out there.....I know we each have things we love to hate :c)
I used to make mostly Queen/King quilts to fit beds, but the past year I have discovered how fun it is to make people sized quilts to fit people....a bit bigger than a lap size, but big enough to cover someone while snuggling on the couch. You get that "FINISHED FIX" alot quicker when the quilt is smaller! You can try more designs and not get bored and leave a UFO behind you when you find something else you want to do or try....And a lap/people sized quilt isn't going to have to revolve around someone's decorating scheme or colors. This is the big thing for me. Maybe Suzy has a bedroom that is moss green and pink......but I don't want to make a bed quilt for her that is moss green and pink....I can make a lap/snuggle size in whatever I want and it still won't kill her decorating (which might change to different colors after the 1st of the year, who knows!)
And basically, you can't go wrong with scrappy....whatever color their decorating is...if I go scrappy, that color is IN THERE!

Great piece Bonnie..thanks for thinking about this while you sewed..LOL.
Organization is definitely a factor. With the pineapple blossoms done with Christmas, I had to stop and keep cutting more 2" strips from those fabrics. Not that I expect to do many Pineapple blossoms from christmas fabric.
I definitely see the advantage of having the scraps cut up. And I'm working on pulling smaller pieced out of my stash and cutting them up also.
But still, you are the speediest piecer, quilter, binder I know..LOL And my hat is OFF to you!!!

A couple of weeks ago, I was going to West Palm Beach for a conference. From Chicago, I could fly to Tampa, change planes and then onto West Palm Beach, or I could fly to Orlando, rent a car, and drive 2 ½ hours to WPB then drive back to Orlando after the conference and catch a flight home the next day. I chose the latter for one reason only. If I drove, I could stop at the Disney Store in Downtown Disney on my way. By doing so, it cost me, an extra night in Florida $63, Car rental for 4 days $150, Gas $60.
I really love beautiful, heavy, expensive looking pens when I'm working. It makes me feel super successful. I was on a mission. I wanted to get a new Disney Pen, because the one I had purchased several years ago wore out, a few journals and a few gifts. I found this beautiful pen. This is no ordinary pen. This pen is fit for a Princess. So much so that it has a crown on the top. I bought 5 of them, one for myself and four for gifts to special women in my life. And while the cost of each pen was $19.99, plus my added expenses, the value to me was so much more. I was able to spend a couple of hours in Downtown Disney all by myself.
Just one little problem when I got home. Watch this three minute video I made yesterday and sent to Disney about my poorly designed pen.
I sent this video to 2 different places, not knowing where I should send it. Within 30 minutes, I received a call from Lee in Orlando at the Disney Store Customer Service. He had viewed my video, called me to get some more information, and was forwarding my information onto someone who can do something about the problem. I had not even provided my phone number. Lee assumed, correctly I might add, that I had probably ordered from Disney.com before and he found my phone number.
This is not unusual service. Disney provides this kind of outstanding customer service to each and every one of their guests each and every time. This is one of the reasons I love Disney.
There is so much to learn from Disney, and here is some of what I have learned from them over the many, many times, I have visited.
I have learned about marketing, merchandising, customer service, company culture, detail, building a brand, innovation, how to treat your employees, but most of all, I have learned about creating an experience. For it is in the experience where the value of your ticket is found. Even in their free experiences, like Downtown Disney, there is tons of value to be found, if you just look around and take the time to notice it.
I sent the video to Disney, not to complain that I had been ripped off, because I wasn't, but because I know they would not want to sell a pen that was not up to their high standards.
I was telling my husband about this, and he said, "My Company doesn't even respond when someone complains on Facebook about a problem with a $100 product they purchased from us." My husband is my business partner in our franchise stores, and he understands how important good customer service is. It's too bad the company he works for does not.
I would like to know, how would your company handle this problem? How would you have responded to my video? Or, would you have responded to my video? Keep in mind; I have already given 3 of the 5 pens I purchased away as gifts. I have one, and the last one was for a gift for a friend's birthday next month, and I realize you aren't earning the kind of money the Disney Corporation is, but I'm just wondering how you would handle this?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal Aviation Administration officials say they are strengthening procedures for alerting the military when air traffic controllers lose contact with planes.
The move comes as a result of the Northwest Airlines plane that overshot Minneapolis last month.
FAA Administrator Randy Babbitt told reporters Friday that air traffic control managers waited 69 minutes after the last contact with Northwest Flight 188 before alerting the military of the problem. He said the guidance to controllers since the 9/11 terrorist attacks has been to alert the military after 10 minutes
Babbitt said the plane was without any radio contact for a total of 77 minutes. He said he wasn't notified until after contact was re-established.

A bit about my mom. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2009. We could see changes in her as early as 2006, but I guess we all just thought nothing was wrong and Alzheimer's never enter our minds till about 2008 when things really started to get out of hand with her. She started calling me telling me the same story day after day, sometimes 3 of 4 times in one day. Then she started saying someone was taking things out of her house. I kept telling her no one was taking anything out. I had told my step dad to go to the Doctors with her and talk to them about what was going on.
My beautiful wife of 54 years started with Alzheimer's disease 7 years ago and now is unable to do anything for herself and must be cared for 24/7. Sad thing is we have 8 beautiful grandchildren and she is unable to know them or her 4 children and will ask me where her husband is. We, all of the country, must understand this disease and help in any way they can, with contributions, or just help your neighbors.

About GHRI Ratings
XGood Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
Testers liked the Archos 9s size and portability making it an option if you will be carrying it with you to class or work. This tablet is designed primarily for web browsing and has a built-in camera and kickstand that props the screen up. It is slow to respond and open programs, and file-transfer speeds were disappointing, to boot. Some testers had trouble typing on the keyboard so if you plan on taking a lot of notes, you may want to look elsewhere. archos.com.

Pamela Denise Anderson (born July 1, 1967) is a Canadian-American actress, model, producer, author, activist, and former showgirl, known for her roles on the television series Home Improvement, Baywatch, and V.I.P.
She was chosen as a Playmate of the Month for Playboy magazine in February 1990. For a time, she was known as Pamela Anderson Lee (or Pamela Lee) after marrying Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee. She holds both United States and Canadian citizenship.
Anderson was born in Ladysmith, British Columbia, the daughter of Barry Anderson, a furnace repairman, and Carol (née Grosco), a waitress. Her great-grandfather Juho Hyytiäinen was Finnish, a native of Saarijärvi, and left the Grand Duchy of Finland (which was a part of the Russian Empire at the time) in 1908, changing his name to Anderson when he arrived as an immigrant. Anderson also has Russian ancestry on her mother's side.

Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Kevin Doherty officially opened a number of new capital projects in Duck Mountain Provincial Park including upgraded electric campsites, the Fen Trail and a new service centre for Birch Campground.
Doherty also announced a second round of electrical upgrades of campsites will begin soon. Birch Campground will receive expanded electrical service to 130 campsites in the second phase of the electrical expansion project.
Electrical service will be provided to 36 existing non-electric campsites and upgraded at 94 existing electrical sites. Government is also committed to providing an additional $10 million for capital improvements over the next four years for a total investment of nearly $54 million.
"Duck Mountain Provincial Park is one of Saskatchewan's original parks," Doherty said. "These upgrades will strengthen Duck Mountain and ensure it continues to provide an enjoyable camping experience for visitors today and in the future."
These upgrades are in addition to the improvements made in phase one of the project when electrical service was added to 73 non-electric sites and upgraded at 86 existing electric sites in Duck Mountain's Spruce and Poplar Campgrounds. Those sites opened this spring.
In total, 289 new and/or upgraded electrical campsites will be available in Duck Mountain once the second phase of the electrical expansion is complete.
Government is also pleased to announce the completion of Duck Mountain's Fen Trail. Not only is this boardwalk trail system accessible to those with disabilities, but it allows people to view the fen environment without harming it. Calcareous fens are rare wetlands that support a variety of plant life.
Birch Campground's new service centre is also complete. It is modern, energy-efficient and a welcome addition for visitors to the campground.
Over the last two years, government has invested more than $1.5 million in capital upgrades for Duck Mountain Provincial Park.
Government has invested $33 million over the last four years to improve Saskatchewan's provincial parks. In addition to expanded electrical service and trails systems, government has replaced or upgraded service centres, change houses, potable water systems, picnic tables and barbeques.
This year, government is providing more than $13 million to parks capital projects.
Government is committed to providing an additional $10 million for capital improvements over the next four years.

Has anyone gotten a tech victory yet? I know people who have gotten domination,economic,culture but not a tech?
Has anyone gotten a tech victory yet? I know people who have gotten domination,economic,culture but not a tech?
Yep lots of people have. All you have to do is build the parts of the space ship and launch it.
I've gotten Tech victory few times. Takes a lot of time, but you get nice animations.
More points for more SS parts, and faster victory with more thrusters.
he means worst because it has so many more requirements to achieve.
You have to get all the way up to space flight before you can even build parts, each of which costs nearly as much as the world bank or united nations wonders.
It takes much more time. In the time that you just get to space flight you could have easily got 20,000 gold.
I've got tech victory on deity, but it took a long time. I mostly did it because I wanted to try it. Personally I like Culture victory the most because you get so many great persons
The best victory is domination, you can win from 11-12 turns if you are lucky (in the game of the week it's possible for example). In king i have won in 44 turns and i think i could win in less turns. Economic victory is the second, cultural the third and tech victory the fourth.
And in the time that you need for the tech victory you can build a lot of temples and cathedrals. So you can build 6-7 wonders, you can flip 5-6 cities if you have some gold to rush cathedrals and temples in new cities, and some great person
You wouldnt win online in 11-12 turns. I only play SP to train for MP and then you need to be able to win in whatever means you can For example, a player might pay up to 100 gold for that wall to make it so that you dont flip his city. Such things would never be done by the AI.
Online i know no. But i could win in 40 turns online, YES, it depends from luck. However in about 15 turns i could have taken 2 capitals at least (I'm not kidding or saying bla bla bla.. For example TheMystic knows that i have taken 2 capitals in a head to head, that were of China and Japan, in about 15-20 turns. And you can't rush the wall for 100 gold, you need at least 350.
What? I was talking about online. I could win in 40 turns. In last game i think i used about 30 to take Washington and to take all enemies cities (I have finished it about 2 minutes ago), and he was about top10-15. And in a FFA, last time in 15 turns i killed greeks and i haven't killed anymore because i was far enough to others. I'm not so noob as you think
Last edited by MorteEterna; 07-11-2008 at 12:36 AM.
Tec Is the best victory ever i built everything on my spaceship.
It is not, because you have to research a lot of technologies, you have to build a lot of things, and what does mean rush? If you can rush for 2000-3000 gold you can win for a economic victory.. However the cultural victory could be the third or the slowest, it depends from how many wonders you built
can some one help i tried to do a tech victory and got space flight but i cant build the rocket.
I've never won any other way...

By Ellis Beard
Back at the old home place is a huge oak tree said to be more than 100 years old. It has weathered storms, tornadoes, hail and everything else Mother Nature has thrown its way.
Occasionally, the tree lost a limb to the wind, but it always recovered to stand tall and proud.
It was much more than a landmark, as it provided comfort, pleasure and strength to all taking advantage of it.
People walking by often stopped for a rest under its shade. The temptation was always there to climb upon its huge limbs to enjoy the scenery and get that "out in space'' feeling.
Kids spent many happy hours on the rope swing. Farm workers often spent most of their dinner hour soaking up the cool breeze under its shade. Birds found it to be a safe and secure place to nest and roost. A swarm of honey bees once attempted to nest in one of its cavities.
It is sad to see that old tree now in decline, returning to the soil from which it came. However, it will be remembered by all who found it to be a real source of tranquility.
Thank you, Lord, for trees.

Nokia Promises Another Revamped N-Gage
From the "Can You Please Just Let It Die?" department, Nokia plans to continue throwing millions away by backing the N-Gage cell phone/video game console hybrid. The latest from them is that they plan to bring an updated version of the N-Gage QD to the market, hoping that will breathe new life (or really, initial life?) into the device.
"We're looking at new colors, a new look and feel for the QD in the next few months," said Gerard Wiener, director and general manager of the games business program at Nokia.
Hey Nokia, I know technology moves really fast and all, and I know how forgettable it was. However, you did have an N-Gage before the QD, and no one bought it. Then you said you would bring a redesigned version to market, in the hopes that it would spark sales. It really didn't happen for ya. Now you can stop wondering why you guys have that sense of deja vu. You're welcome.

Aroma is medium sweet, nicely spiced, yeasty and citric. Flavor is mild spice, yeasty, doughy malt and light alcohol. Finish is dry and very yeasty. lMedium to full bodied, a very enjoyable beer to share with a coupple friends.

Given that, I got this as a gift and had to try it. The color was a nice golden, the head was one finger floating above four in a snifter, slowing melting to a nice coat on the top. Ale was about 36-38 degrees F. (I like my IPAs cold) Smell was mild, fruity, typical of a belgian, with no individual overwhelming flavor. Taste was nice, extremely complex, sweet after-taste, but enough bitterness not to be cloying. Spices well mixed, several different fruity hints overlapped each other. Mouth feel was great - smooth, thick almost, left nice coating. Alcohol was nicely hidden by the complexity of the flavors, nice buzz after a while. I just might try some more of these unique belgians from now on.

No carbonation pop upon opening. Pours moderately hazy bright golden amber color with a thin lace cap for a head that reduces to a ring. Minimal clinging bubbles on the glass. Aromas of lemon, pear, apple, grape, banana, clove, pepper, honey, wheat, candi sugar, bubblegum, herbal, and yeast earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of malt and fruity/spicy yeast notes; with good strength. Taste of lemon, pear, apple, grape, banana, clove, pepper, wheat, honey, candi sugar, bubblegum, herbal, and yeast earthiness. Lingering notes of light fruits, banana, clove, pepper, wheat, honey, candi sugar, bubblegum, herbal, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast esters and malt sweetness; with a great malt/spiciness balance and no cloying flavors after the finish. Zero carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a moderately slick and fairly smooth mouthfeel that is decent. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming present after the finish. Overall, despite having nearly zero carbonation; this was a very good Belgian strong golden. All around nice balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast and malt flavors; and quite smooth to sip on for the ABV. A very enjoyable offering.

The beer has a finger tall dense foamy off-white head that slowly reduces to a thick film covering the entire surface of the beer with a slightly thicker ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed. S: Moderate aromas of Belgian yeast (peppery) and spices along with some lighter aromas of pale malts and citrus/orange zest hops. T: Upfront there is a moderate flavor of pale malts along with moderate to strong flavors of peppery Belgian yeast and spices. There are light flavors of candi sugar sweetness and just a hint of citrus/orange zest hops. Light amounts of bitterness are present and linger. M: Medium bodied with moderate to heavy amounts of carbonation. Light amounts of dryness and a moderate amount of prickliness (likely from the spices). O: This beer is pretty easy to drink and the alcohol is well hidden - there is a decent amount of complexity. I found this one enjoyable and I would recommend checking this one out.

I've kind of burned out on the rich brews and the Belgians, but this is still very well crafted. it was my fault for going on an all-out Belgian-fest and getting tired of these beautiful rich brews... not sure why I even picked this one up.... but here I am, here it is, and I haven't officially logged a review on this one yet although I've had it many times....

Free-to-play RPG Guardian Hearts headed to Vita
Q Entertainment has announced Guardian Hearts Online a free-to-play RPG for the Vita, coming to Japan some time this month. Andraisang reports the game is likely a port of mobile effort Guardian Hearts, and only the second free-to-play game to grace Sony's new portable to date. You probably know Q Entertainment best from Lumines and Child of Eden, but it was also partially responsible for Ninety-Nine Nights.

Q trademarks Guardian Hearts
Q has trademarked something called Guardian Hearts, reports Siliconera.
As the site points out, Q isn't "trademark-happy" compared to other publishers, and has only applied for six since it opened: Meteos, Q? (the company logo), Lumines, Every Extend Extra, Genki Rockets and Guardian Hearts.
We love you, Mizuguchi. Make something good.
