"Hi mom, this is "friendsname" my boy-friend" ?If not, do your parents know you are gay? You might start by telling them that before you add another person to the equation.And last but not least, I doubt this is an etiquette-question, probably more of a psychological or relational issue.

Over the years, TV execs have tried to recreate the magic of "Dallas" in a reboot. None have taken off, until last summer, when original cast members Larry Hagman, Linda Gray and Patrick Duffy agreed to reprise their roles in an updated version of the "Dallas" story. Without them, any other rendition would have seemed like a caricature of the fabulous original. Viewers seem to agree, with an average of 6.1 million viewers tuning in each week of Season 1, according to TNT. With the original actors, particularly Hagman's devious ways, the new stories felt properly in context of the Dallas world that millions loved in the '80s. Season 2 starts tonight with a two-hour premiere, and with the sad news that Hagman died in the fall from cancer, there will certainly be a different tone to the series. He is expected to be in at least five episodes, possibly more, The Associated Press reports. But "Dallas" executive producer Cynthia Cidre has been tight-lipped about how J.R./Hagman will exit the series. There will be a funeral, that much is known. Cidre has said how much she admired Hagman, and told the AP, "We want to give J.R., and Larry, the proper send-off." Until that time later in the season, viewers can expect the backstabbing, love triangles and major secrets that have been part of "Dallas" lore for so long. And Hagman's eyebrows. Expect his eyebrows to dominate the screen as long as they can. 9 p.m. TNT
The discovery of two bodies at the same burial site prompt Brennan and Booth to have some serious discussions about their future. Plus, Angela and Hodgins will have to deal with the aftermath of last week's episode. Yep, they're kinda broke. 8 p.m. Fox
The makeover episode is always a fan favorite. After contestants have slaved away for weeks losing weight and enduring the tough love from the trainers, the remaining contestants get a cool makeover. This season, for the first time, eliminated contestants will get makeovers after they have gone home. These makeovers will star airing midway through the season. Tonight, the remaining contestants have to learn to make healthy meals. 8 p.m. NBC

Gronkowski, Gostkowski voice their own cartoon characters for NFL series
Parents with little Patriots fans in their house might want to set the DVR for Nicktoons on Friday night at 9.
That's when, in the third episode of the series "NFL RushZone: Season of the Guardians," New England's own Rob Gronkowski and Stephen Gostkowski will provide the voices for their own animated personas as protagonists Ash and Ish pay a visit to Foxboro.
They're there to help solve the mystery created when Drop Kick (the villain, of course; somewhere, Doug Flutie is offended) nearly steals the Patriots' Megacore (a team's fans and community) by creating a robot replica of a local sports reporter (yeah, it's always the media's fault). Thankfully the Pats' tight end and kicker are there to help advise.
If you're among those who've long believed the gregarious Gronkowski is actually a 6-foot, 6-inch cartoon character living in the real world, well, now you have visual evidence of what that would look like. Already this season, the Lions' Calvin Johnson and Cowboys' DeMarcus Ware have voiced their own animations, while Pro Football Hall of Famers Jim Brown, Richard Dent, and Mike Ditka, as well as the Brothers Harbaugh, will also be among those making an appearance throughout the second season as the series shows Ish and Ash attempting to protect all 32 NFL teams from Drop Kick in what Nickelodeon claims to be the first-ever original half-hour animated series jointly developed by a cable network and major U.S. sports league.
It's also packaged with a website that features games and is also where you can see full episodes if your loyalty to WWE's Friday Night Smackdown preoccupies your DVR in that hour, or if you miss the replay on Saturday morning at 7 on NFL Network.
In the meantime, here are a couple of preview clips showcasing Gronkowski's voiceover work -- plus Rich Eisen and Michael Irvin -- courtesy of the NFL and Nickelodeon.

Shapiro explores the relationship between art and suffering. He says that the difference between what one's suffer in the daily lives and the suffering enacted in a Greek tragedy has to do with how that suffering is shaped and ordered. He concludes by saying that he wants the kind of art that admits it is giving a song and dance when it transforms suffering into pleasure, pain into insight, life into clarifying images of life; the kind of art that recognizes there is no good substitute for the precious flesh.
by Alan Shapiro. Tikkun. San Francisco:Jan/Feb 2004. Vol. 19, Iss. 1, p. 28-32
In the fall of 1999, my brother was dying of brain cancer, my marriage was falling apart, and I had just moved into the basement apartment of a house whose owner was an eighty-five-year-old woman with Alzheimer's who every few days would knock on my door and introduce herself. One night in the middle of this outtake from the Book of Job I had a dream in which The Oresteia by Aeschylus, which I was translating at the time, had been adapted for the Jerry Springer Show. What I remember mostly were the characters as they came on stage: Agamemnon first-decked out in armor, spear in hand, horse hair bobbing from his helmet: as he strides to his chair, the caption on the screen reads: "Sacrificed Daughter to Stop Wind!" He's followed by Cassandra, who staggers out, babbling incoherently. The caption flashes: "Thinks she's clairvoyant!" Then Oedipus, not Clytemnestra, strides confidently to his seat, so confident in fact that he hasn't noticed that he's strayed in off the set of another tragedy while Jerry whispers to the home audience, "Slept with Mother, Murdered Father, Doesn't realize it yet!"

Republicans to 9/11 Responders: Die, and Die Quickly
(h/t Heather)
This clip of Anthony Weiner going ballistic on the House floor is one for the ages -- it should be watched again and again and again, and not only because he was angry and frustrated, but because he spoke a truth that all of us expect from our representatives. It's really quite simple: "If you believe that it's right, you vote yes. You don't hide behind procedure and give cover to your pals."
It's really that simple, but here's the backstory. The House has been trying to re-open the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund through 2031 for 9/11 responders whose health has been affected.
When it became apparent that the Republicans were going to attach "poison pill" amendments to the bill that had nothing to do with 9/11 and everything to do with their political agenda, Democrats shut down the possibility of amending the bill by moving it to the suspension calendar, where a minimum 2/3rds vote is needed for it to pass.
Republicans applied the same old talking points, calling it a "massive new entitlement program". Actually, that's not quite right. They called it a "massive job-killing new entitlement program", because that's the Frank Luntz mantra of the week. (I was monitoring the Senate at the same time, and somehow the Small Business Jobs bill also became another "massive job-killing new entitlement program.") Of course, that's nonsense too, given that it had been structured to be paid for by closing a tax loophole for foreign corporations.
If you believe it's right, you vote yes.

Hi everyone,
I'm working on a work station where there is 4 monitors.
2 for the general UI (samsung)
1 HP Dreamcolor for accurate color and contrast
1 wacom tablet for mask and pen work
When I'm clicking on "video on second monitor", Red Cine doesn't let me choose which one... Depending of where I position the UI windows it gives me random results, positioning the second monitor in the tablet or one of the samsungs.
Of course, I would like to be able to use the Dream color obviously...
Any one knows of to specify this?
Thanks in advance

text: PHULBANI, India, MAY 4, 2009 (Zenit.org).- The prelates of India are hoping that a visit from the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom will bring justice more quickly to persecuted Christians in Orissa. Archbishop Stanislaus Fernandez of Gandhinagar, secretary of the India episcopal conference, spoke with AsiaNews about the visit next month, saying he hopes it will "speed up the path to justice for the Christians of Kandhamal." The commission prepares an annual report on the status of religious freedom in nations around the world. While in India, they plan to focus on the state of Orissa in the east, the site of heightened persecution against Christians, and the state of Gujarat in the west, where Muslim faithful were persecuted in 2002. Both situations involved Hindu extremists.

stubby4j – HTTP stub server written in Java with embedded Jetty is now hosted on Maven Central. Check Maven Central for the latest releases.
I released a Java-based HTTP stub server. We are actually using it on our current project. Give it a go, perhaps it can help you too. In brief, why would you use a stub HTTP server?
Spent some time yesterday playing with LaTeX again, and to be more specific – with fonts in LaTeX. I created a resume template by applying XeLaTeX type setting. The latter allows me easily to load system fonts (both OTF and TTF) in .TEX files.
It is very similiar to CSS – XeLaTeX allows you to load system fonts simply by calling font's name in your commands. Have a look at the following example: I declared a new command HoeflerFont which uses one of my system fonts by its name: Hoefler Text
\newcommand{\HoeflerFont}[1]{\fontspec[Alternate=1,Ligatures={TeX,Common,NoCommon, Rare}]{Hoefler Text}\selectfont #1}
I used several different fonts for my resume with ligatures enabled. Ligatures are curly little letter tails that make text style look somewhat medieval. From Wikipedia:
In writing and typography, a ligature occurs where two or more graphemes are joined as a single glyph. Ligatures usually replace consecutive characters sharing common components and are part of a more general class of glyphs called "contextual forms", where the specific shape of a letter depends on context such as surrounding letters or proximity to the end of a line.
In order to enable ligatures, the font needs to support them. In other words, not all fonts have ligatures enabled. The following image is a screenshot of my resume using fonts supporting ligatures.
I created a library that measures amount of WTFs per package or project. This library is a by-product that derived from what I was doing few days ago:
I was dabbling with Java and decided to take a break. I came across a well know image that depicts code review session behind closed doors. The image called "The only valid measurement of code quality: WTF/minute". I decided to make an extension to the latter concept.
This library brings you the ability to mark code smells in your source code (Classes, methods, fields etc.) with 'WTF' annotation. The WTF annotation accepts an arbitary message, if none provided, the default message 'Dude.. WTF?!' is used instead. When source compiles, the compiler generates a warning using the message from the detected annotation(s) and information about annotated element. The following is a sample output from compiling a class containing WTF annotations:
Warning: : In CLASS [wtf.per.project.model.DummyPojoImpl] :CLASS level => WTF?! Are you for real?! This naming convention is bad!
Warning: : In CLASS [wtf.per.project.model.DummyPojoImpl] : FIELD 'SOME_CONSTANT' => WTF?! What is this non-descriptive name?
Warning: : In CLASS [wtf.per.project.model.DummyPojoImpl] : CONSTRUCTOR 'DummyPojoImpl(java.lang.String)' => WTF?! Dude.. WTF?!
The library also provides a custom JUnit test runner class. The runner consumes package name, annotation class and search filter through @Grep annotation (used in conjunction with @RunWith). The runner scans .class files under the given package, its sub-packages and JARs for the given annotation (for example WTF.class) occurrences. If String regex pattern provided in @Grep, classes are filtered out from being scanned based on the filter. The runner uses a test class internally to assert whether the code is still infested with WTFs (or any other annotation class set in @Grep).
The analysis of .class files within given package, its sub-packages and any JAR files found is done using reflection. At first I was using third party library called 'Reflections' for this task (which is a very good tool btw!), but I ended up not using it anymore. I did not want to have third party dependencies and implemented my own meta data analysis in order to keep the library size small and lean. In the near future, I will extract the metadata analysis logic into a separate library. It should be quite flexible since there different .class file scanners in place. For example, scanner for constructors only or for method parameters, fields only etc.
So, if runner's test assertion fails (given annotation like @WTF found present in the code), the test class generates metrics about how many WTFs are there and where. These metrics appended to the assertion failure message. For example, the following is the example of the custom JUnit runner:
@RunWith(WTFsPerProject.class) @Grep(packageName = "wtf.per.project.model", classNameFilter = ".*", annotationClass = WTF.class) public final class WTFsPerProjectRunner { }
I have few POJOs marked with WTF annoation, the following is the produced output after running the above runner:
Another example of the custom JUnit runner:
//Grep only inner classes
@Grep(packageName = "wtf.per.project.model",
classNameFilter = ".*[$].*", annotationClass = WTF.class)
public final class WTFsPerProjectRunner { }
I created this library for fun. Nothing more. If someone actually decides to use it – great.

Recently I listened to a talk given by an ex-ThoughtWorker, Simon Harris. One of the things that Simon talked about was how we, developers (and generally speaking – human beings) sometimes tend to reject what is unfamiliar to us. Within software development context it can be an existing/legacy application or a module that we need to extend, and which is difficult to understand.
Really, how many times we looked at someone else's work (eg:. a developer that has left the company a long time ago) and thought "Dude, this is so weak … come one"?
Instead of just pointing fingers, maybe we should stop for a moment, try to think and understand, what were the reasons for producing that mediocre piece of code? Look at the current software's state from a different angle. Sure, sometimes a poorly written software is simply just that – a poorly written software without a particular reason. But at other times, perhaps there were unknown variables in the equation that prevented developers produce something of a higher quality: technical limitations? Some internal politics? Tight deadlines? Environment?
Understanding the historical/current state of an application, can only help us to come up with better results in the long run. I really enjoyed Simon's talk, he clearly draws from his extensive experience.
If you want to add a watermark image to your LaTeX document, you can achieve it easily using three packages: graphicx, tikz and eso-pic:
Graphicx package allows to load images into documents. If you want to add transparency to your image, you need also to use tikz package. Tikz is used for producing vector graphics from a geometric/algebraic description, but is also allows to play with opacity levels.
Eso-pic package provides hooks to inserts the images on one or more pages as a background (in other words – a watermark).
I have attached a final result as PDF, so you can see the output: PDF with semi-opaqued watermark.
I was playing with LaTeX in order to create a resume template for my self. I was looking for a way to style title generated by the \section command. My goal was to generate color filled box with some text inside and some padding.
This is what I have came up with:
{\\parbox{6.5in}{\\vspace{.03in}\\hspace{.03in}\\LaTe X{ is really cool}\\vspace{.03in}}}}}
Which produced the following result:
I have some good news: I am going to be a ThoughtWorker. After two or three weeks of interviews, I have recently accepted their offer and going to start with the company in August.
I am really looking forward to it, since many bright, passionate and talented people work for ThoughtWorks. The company is known for its cutting-edge technology development and being one of the global leaders in enterprise Agile development services. In other words, I am really happy
I will keep writing updates from time to time about my experience at ThoughtWorks. Stay tuned.

Weldon and Robert,
Your current post about why we are charging for the live stream is complete BS. I think it is comical coming from you guys. Why don't we have a debate on skype on this topic and post it for the world to see? That would allow the community to decide for themselves. I doubt you guys would do that though, because it would not help your narrative.
I am here and my number is below to do this anytime.

What a heart warming story. http://www.dump.com/dogreunited/
Awwww, LES in a good way.
I've Been Boo'd
I've been Frosted
What a wonderful story, though incomplete - it doesn't say how the second woman found her, or where, and how she got in touch with her original owners - was she microchipped, or how did that transpire?
I've Been Frosted
I'm so happy for the dog and her original owners. I agree with Karen that there are some unanswered questions.
The unanswered questions are answered in The More Information link.
They still don't know how the dog traveled so far from home, but the people who ultimately found Leia
took her to the Vet where they discovered she had a chip & she was traced back to the shelter were she had
been adopted from, etc, etc.
I've Been Boo'd
I've been Frosted
I really should not have watched that while I'm at work. I am in tears now. You know how you try not to cry and your throat hurts.
That was amazing!!!
Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
Cindy (Human) - Taz (RB Tabby) - Zoee (Australian Shepherd) - Paizly (Dilute Tortie) - Taggart (Aussie Mix) - Jax (Brown & White Tabby)
I must tell you what a lovely way to get back your dog. I watched the link and tears came out rolling. Its Amazing!

#LitBeat: Tumblr Writers BEA Party
By Laura Yan
On Wednesday night I went to Housing Works Bookstore Cafe early, and watched as the quiet, dim bookstore steadily transformed itself. With cheery red and white name tags (with a space for your Tumblr URL), and free flowing wine, the few attendees wandering through the store quickly turned into a lively crowd; their conversations became a steady soundtrack, overtaking the pleasant indie music that played on the stereo. From my perfect vantage point next to the reading stage, I could count no less than six flannel shirts in the crowd in front of me.
I had expected everyone to be avid bloggers, but it turned out there were quite a few people there who hardly knew what Tumblr was—"Can you sign up for it like Facebook?" one woman asked me. A few of the early arriving guests I spoke with were there to see Baratunde Thurston, author of How to Be Black, funny person, and owner of a name that is apparently impossible to pronounce.
As it approached 8 (an hour after the event's listed starting time), Housing Works's events director Amanda Bullock took the stage to introduce the store that hardly needed introductions. The first reader, The Millions's own Edan Lepucki, began with a proclamation of how much she loved Tumblr. She read, from the opening of her novella If You're Not Yet Like Me, a story of inviting a first date home while wearing granny panties, full of self-aware humor: "it was all so predictable—you don't need me to describe it," she said of the minutia of seduction, and the audience chuckled appreciatively at her evaluation of the characters's date: "it was a classy response."
Next up, novelist Alexander Chee, author of Edinburgh, was introduced by Tumblr events director Rachel Fershleiser as "a legit literary writer who really gets the Internet." As if to prover her point, Chee read a short story from his iPad about an unexpected summer job at CVS. The unfortunate narrator, Stanley, crashed a car into a stone wall with a Mexican exchange student named Paco in tow.
Finally, Thurston, author and stand-up comedian (an unfair advantage Fershleiser pointed out, introducing him as "our last performer"), took the stage. Thurston, the "reverse introvert," told a story about an encounter with an overly friendly person at a bar. The woman was a "horrible overlap of curious and excited," and while his inclination was to tell her "Look, I'm over 30—my friend circle is closed," he treated her as he would a parent after a phone conversation goes on for 20 minutes too long. He gave hilariously flattened, one word answers to her hyper-excited questions. The exchange eventually culminated in her exclamation of "You're the whitest black guy I've ever met!" A fitting end to his pep talk on his book, which includes guidelines on "how to be the angry Negro," not to mention, the important scientific tagline: "If you don't buy this book, you're racist. If your friends don't buy this book, your friends are racist."
Racism covered, readings accomplished, Fershleiser reminded the crowd that there was still plenty of time for "booze and flirting." The crowd complied.

North of Lägern (Cantons Zürich, Aargau) is one of the six potential siting regions for a geological repository confirmed by the Federal Council. The region to the north-west of Bülach is suitable for both a high-level waste repository and a low- and intermediate-level waste repository.
The geological siting area covers an area of around 65 square kilometres. The host rock formations occurring within the area are the claystone sequence Brauner Dogger and the Opalinus Clay (with its confining units).
Understanding of the spatial conditions in the area is based on 2D seismic investigations and results from a deep borehole (Weiach). The siting area is located in a region that has partly been tectonically overprinted by the folding of the Jura mountains (precursory folding zone). For this reason, the host rock has areas with largely quiet bedding as well as zones with increased tectonic dissection.
Overall, the siting area is evaluated as being suitable.
The underground installations for a deep geological repository for low- and intermediate-level waste in the host rocks Opalinus Clay and Brauner Dogger could be constructed in the area shown in green.
Siting communities:
Canton Zürich: Bachs, Bülach, Eglisau, Glattfelden, Hochfelden, Neerach, Niederweningen, Oberweningen, Schleinikon, Schöfflisdorf, Stadel, Weiach
Canton Aargau: Fisibach, Schneisingen, Siglistorf
Planning perimeter for surface facilities
The required surface infrastructure (e.g. the portal of the access tunnel) could also be located outside this siting region. Working together with the affected Cantons and representatives from Germany, the Federal Government has defined planning zones (so-called planning perimeters) that include these additional areas. The planning perimeter extends up to 5 km around the geological siting region and should have good road or rail access. Mountainous and hilly zones and protected natural areas are restricting factors. The Federal Office of Energy announced the planning perimeters in provisional form on 10th December 2009; these were approved by the Federal Council on 30th November 2011.
Additional communities within the planning perimeter (besides the siting communities):
Canton Zürich: Bachenbülach, Dielsdorf, Embrach, Höri, Hüntwangen, Niederglatt, Niederhasli, Oberglatt, Rafz, Rorbas, Steinmaur, Wasterkingen, Wil, Winkel
Canton Schaffhausen: Buchberg, Rüdlingen
Canton Aargau: Ehrendingen, Endingen, Freienwil, Kaiserstuhl, Lengnau, Mellikon, Rekingen, Rümikon, Unterendingen, Wislikofen
The area is located in the community of Mellikon and partly in Rekingen. The eastern section is used for agriculture, while the western section is in an industrial zone and is already developed with good access. Two factory buildings would have to be demolished to allow construction of the facility. The facility would not be clearly visible from residential areas.
The area lies in the community of Weiach close to an existing gravel-pit. A small part is used today for agriculture. Construction measures would be required to provide access to the area. It is visible particularly from the north, but this could be minimised by lowering the facility to the level of the bottom of the gravel-pit.
Tel. +41 (0)56 437 12 99 |
2012 (20th January) | At a media conference held by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE), Nagra announces its proposals for potential siting areas for the surface facility. These will serve as the basis for discussions within the framework of regional participation. |
2011 (30th November) | The Federal Council decides to include the siting region North of Lägern in the further Sectoral Plan process. Stage 1 of the process is completed and Stage 2 initiated. |
2010 (1st September) | Start of the public consultation phase on Stage 1
of the site selection process for deep geological repositories. |
2010 (26th February) | The Swiss Federal Nuclear Safety Inspectorate (ENSI) approves Nagra's proposed siting regions following a review of safety and engineering feasibility aspects. |
2009 (10th December) | Announcement of the provisional planning perimeter by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE). |
2008 (20th November) | Glattfelden. Together with the ENSI and Nagra, the SFOE provides information on the proposals for geological siting regions. |
2008 (6th November) | Announcement by the SFOE of the proposed siting regions for deep geological repositories. |
2008 (2nd April) | The Federal Council approves the conceptual part of the sectoral plan for deep geological repositories. |
1993 | Completion of the site investigations for low- and intermediate-level waste, comparative assessment of the results for the four sites, proposal of the Wellenberg site. |
1991 – 1992 | Regional seismic investigations between the river Aare and Lake Constance (2D seismics). |
1988 | Recognition by the Federal Council of the feasibility and safety of disposing of low- and intermediate-level waste in Switzerland. |
1985 | Submission of Project Gewähr to the federal authorities (demonstration of the feasibility and safety of disposing of all types of radioactive waste in Switzerland). |
1982 – 1984 | Regional seismic investigations in the area Olten – Schaffhausen. |

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Hydropower Country Notes
United States of America
The hydro resource base is huge: the gross theoretical potential was assessed in 1979 as 512 GW, equivalent to 4 485 TWh/yr. The United States WEC Member Committee has reported that the annual technically exploitable capability is 1 752 TWh, of which 501 TWh is economically exploitable, both based on publications of the Idaho National Environmental and Engineering Laboratory. The end-2005 US hydro capacity of 77.4 GW had an average annual capability of about 292 TWh, equivalent to 58% of the assessed economic potential.
Actual hydroelectric output of 269.6 TWh in 2005 accounted for 6.7% of US electricity generation. Only 8 MW of hydro capacity was under construction at end-2005, and 16 MW was at the planning stage.
The reported technically exploitable capability of small-scale hydropower is almost 584 TWh. The installed generating capacity of small hydro plants totalled 2.84 GW at end-2005; actual generation in 2005 was about 10.7 TWh, equivalent to 4% of total US hydro output.

AMARILLO, TEXAS -- People with drug or alcohol addiction problems are being sent to prison for non-violent crimes rather than rehabilitation centers where their problems would be tackled.
The highest number of arrests in the U.S. last year was for drug abuse violations with 1.5 million arrests. Possession of drugs is a serious criminal charge here in Texas. The punishment for drugs possession can range anywhere from probation to serious prison time. Those with drug problems and are caught with any drugs are typically sentenced to jail versus being sent to a rehabilitation center.
Jail is a place designated to house criminals, not help individuals get better. By placing those with drug addictions in jail, people sometimes leave the jail worse than they came in.
Providing help rather than avoiding the problem would help reduce the amount of repeat offenders and ultimately save tax dollars because the root of the issue would be solved.
More information on help for drug addictions in Amarillo can be found here.

This is a good part of why pvp took so long / never really arrived. That said, personally I would say it's a very bad direction to start nerfing pve skills for pvp balance.
As to Path of Exile, we'll see if PoE is the savior some claim it to be -- I'll play it and I'm sure portions of it will feel like, "why didn't blizz do that". Other parts will feel like, "man, blizz did this a ton better." From what I've seen of it on youtube, the combat doesn't look very fluid but it may be fun to mess around with the skill tree and other systems. Whatever the case, I'm fully confident that Blizzard is/has been watching and will take the good parts that make sense and improve Diablo with them. No, I'm not saying we will have a poe skill tree in D3 -- but I would not be surprised if they have people working on a map system to expand the D3 end game.
Copying the copiers is something WoW did over many expansions -- whatever competitor popped up, they'd mine it for the good ideas or innovative systems that would fit within WoW and improve their game. Over many iterations of failed competitors and new features put into WoW, this makes the wall to climb all that much higher for future competitors. Pretty sure, you'll see much the same in D3 and personally I look forward to where D3 will get to over the year(s) as these improvements get implemented.

"Never had a bad one"
The churchills and toros are a staple in my humidor. They are always consistently solid cigars. CA is spot on with its review. Love the flavor the Brazilian wrapper brings to the cigar.
Jason in SC May 28, 2012
Cigar Aficionado has it right,this little cigar packs flavor along with style,it has bean years since I have had A cigar this good. Great for after dinner lunch breakfast, OH Hell, anytime.
Chris in Simi Valley California February 10, 2012
I tend to go for smokes like the La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero or the Camacho Triple Maduro but they're a bit much to take on a daily basis. I was looking for something a little milder and smoother but with really good flavor. I was determined I would purchase the Maduro Fuente Hemingways (fantastic smoke) when I found these Torano Maduros. For the money, they are Unbeatable! I like the churchhill because it unleashes different seasons throughout the cigar, subtle changes and each very welcome, fragrant and flavorful. The burn and pull are perfect. The appearance is dark, rich, everything you could ask for. I typically buy a bunch so some get smoked immediately while others wait. They are great to start out with and only get better as they rest in your humidor. This is my daily choice.

Romney Hits Campaign Trail In Ohio
In this last mile of the presidential race, Mitt Romney has been all over the country. Yet half his events this week are in Ohio, which looks to be the most important battleground in this race.
Copyright © 2012 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
Republicans may be downplaying early voting, but the Romney campaign is working to build voter excitement. Their candidate is in North Canton, Ohio tonight after taking a bus tour across the state yesterday. NPR's Ari Shapiro reports.
ARI SHAPIRO, BYLINE: Mitt Romney adopted a new theme in Cincinnati yesterday. Actually, it was an old theme that his opponent made popular four years ago. This branding effort was impossible to miss.
MITT ROMNEY: The Americans want to see big changes, and I'll put us on a new path, a big change path. The big change Paul Ryan and I represent has five big - don't you think it's time for a big change in the course of this country? On November 6th, I'm counting on Ohio to vote for big change.
SHAPIRO: That was not even half the big changes in a single, 20-minute speech. And his characterization of President Obama was just as persistent.
ROMNEY: The path we're on, the status quo path, the status quo path of the president - the status quo path says that we're going to have Obamacare.
SHAPIRO: At this event, Romney was introduced by three women who own small businesses, more evidence of Republican efforts to close the gender gap. That courtship hit a road bump this week with Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock's comments about pregnancy and rape. Indiana voter Amanda Sargent came to the Romney rally in Cincinnati yesterday. She's willing to accept that Mourdock misspoke and move on.
AMANDA SERGEANT: I definitely don't agree that, you know, rape is God's plan, but I think he just meant that everyone is part of God's plan, everyone created.
SHAPIRO: The Romney bus rolled north from Cincinnati to Columbus, where a banner hanging outside of a metal fabrication plant proclaimed victory in Ohio.
UNIDENTIFIED GROUP: Ohio.
ROMNEY: I was afraid you'd say that. I guess Joe Biden was here the other day and said it was sure great to be here in Iowa.
SHAPIRO: Ohio's unemployment rate is almost a full point below the national average, but even 7 percent unemployment hurts when you're in a position like Melody Stevens-Koo. She lost her job in August of 2006.
MELODY STEVENS-KOO: I've applied for over 400 different jobs. I've had two interviews. I was 50 years old at the time. I went through all my unemployment, and now I am just living - my husband and I are living on his retirement.
SHAPIRO: Now she sees her competition: young people graduating from college who don't have jobs, either, and she wonders how much longer it's sustainable.
STEVENS-KOO: After a bit, when I didn't get any interviews and whatever, I was very disheartened. And I had my, you know, my family, my church and stuff, but it still kind of makes you feel, you know, like a little less of yourself because you want to work. I'm very capable. And so it was hard.
SHAPIRO: With an election just around the corner, she's feeling like things could finally change. Romney tried to tap into that hopefulness.
ROMNEY: This has been a tough time for the American people, but I'm optimistic it's about to get a lot better. On November 7th, it's going to start getting better just with the news we voted for big change.
SHAPIRO: His third and final stop of the day was in Defiance, Ohio. At a high school football field, the lead singer of the band Alabama warmed up the crowd, along with the rocker Meatloaf.
SHAPIRO: Meatloaf said he'd never been involved in politics before.
MEATLOAF: I want you to know that there is one man who will stand tall in this country and fight the storm and bring the United States back to what it should be: Governor Mitt Romney.
SHAPIRO: Romney attacked President Obama intensely again, and he also struck a bipartisan note saying that as president, he'll reach across the aisle.
ROMNEY: There are good Democrats who love this country. There are good Americans who love this - good Republicans who love this country. I'm going to work with both. I'm going to meet regularly with Democrats and Republicans, work together, work together to solve our problems.
SHAPIRO: At the end of the rally, Meatloaf, Randy Owen and Mitt Romney joined in song as fireworks exploded overhead, one of the American hymns Romney mentions at nearly every campaign stop.
SHAPIRO: Ari Shapiro, NPR News, traveling with the Romney campaign.

Time capsule is to mark Queen's 60th anniversary (From Ledbury Reporter)

Time capsule is to mark Queen's 60th anniversary
2:50pm Saturday 14th April 2012 in News By Robert Hale
LEDBURY Rotarians are asking for help from local people to create a time capsule for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
They want to fill it with items which create a snapshot of life in 2012, and leave instructions that it should be opened in 40 years, the 100th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II taking the throne.
Among the items being sought are poems and stories from local schools, essays on life now, and a variety of local papers and magazines.
Jan Long, who came up with the idea, said: "We want to provide a focus for the many organisations and agencies who carry out vital work in Ledbury, and invite people in the private and voluntary sectors, arts groups, local communities, individuals and town council to donate something to the capsule.
"We need to think of what is important to us all now, the way we use technology, networking sites, other communication media and then imagine what the world will be like in 40 years and how our artefacts, such as a computer memory stick or DVD, will be viewed by those opening the capsule."
She has written to the Queen and Prime Minister David Cameron, asking for letters to place in the capsule, Herefordshire Council has given permission for the capsule to be buried in the town, and it is hoped to hold the burial ceremony in June.
Rotary president Tony Knight said: "The time capsule is a wonderful way to reach into the future and provide a real-life picture of Ledbury, a way for us today to give the future generations a sense of who we are and what life was like for us.
"We are confident of leaving a great legacy for the people of Ledbury and we invite members of the community who wish to contribute an item to the capsule to contact Jan Long."

My daughters first birthday is fast approaching (June 13th) and i'm starting to panic! I've been buying bits and pieces and putting them away for her but I feel that as its her first birthday, we should be buying her something really speial, not just toys etc.
What gifts have you bought your little ones? Any ideas?
some great 1st birthday ideas. my twins first birthday we had a huge party with their naming day first both dressed in beautiful white outfits. also i ordered from cabbage patch america( go to website) a doll for each of them that looks like them with their names and birthdates so they have something to keep. another good idea is take them to a park or somewhere and take a million photos( because 1 in 100 works!! ) and make a cute photo book for them for their birthday and get everyone to sign it as a keepsake. and saving the best for last, we had 3 cakes for the party but we made a special number 1 cake each in pink and blue and sat them on a blanket in the yard with all the party goers watching and filming and let them go for it, it was the most entertaining part of the day for our guests. you just need to keep in mind that they will not remember this day so the more you can keep the better for down the track for them.

For example, MMORPG might have full access to DRI/DRM stack, PulseAudio but very limited access to filesystem. I can do this right now with AppArmor, but it's a bit clumsy in that regard.
Or I might want to be able to pass file handles to seccomped sandbox while it's running.
I don't really mind statefulness in syscall firewall if it helps. Just as I don't mind it in iptables.
Seccomp filters: permission denied
Posted May 27, 2011 13:40 UTC (Fri) by talex (subscriber, #19139) [Link]
If so, you don't need any fancy custom syscall rules, just the ability to pass file descriptors to sandboxed processes (so the MMORPG either starts with DRI access before dropping privileges, or starts with a Unix-domain socket over which it can request it from another user-space process).
It seems to me that the only calls we really need to block are the ones that operate on global namespaces rather than on descriptors (e.g. open, connect, kill).
Posted May 27, 2011 14:07 UTC (Fri) by Cyberax (✭ supporter ✭, #52523) [Link]
Won't work. MMORPG also needs to read assets, so it must have access to a part of the filesystem. Also, it might need write access to local preferences storage.
OpenGL drivers also might need to have read access.

But with Linus' suggestion ("new flags to pathname lookup that say "don't follow symlinks" and "don't follow '..'""), you could allow openat calls and pass in the FD for the subdirectory you wanted it to access, I think.
(Plash doesn't allow processes to hold a directory FD because that would allow them to escape Plash's sandbox, but seccomp mode doesn't need to worry about that. http://plash.beasts.org/wiki/DirectoryFDs)
Posted May 27, 2011 15:47 UTC (Fri) by nybble41 (subscriber, #55106) [Link]
Posted May 27, 2011 15:57 UTC (Fri) by Cyberax (✭ supporter ✭, #52523) [Link]
So they'll probably going to write a 'filesystem server' which will have to do path sanitizing, permission checking and so on. Then one might think, why not write something like PulseAudio - a central filesystem server that can be reused by various software so each software won't have to reinvent it. Do you see where we're heading?
Yep. Microkernels.

Washburn]. None of them hit me like this one oddball quilt-top N4. When I pulled that out of the case, Mike immediately said, 'I remember that one.'" It turns out Sherman had built that very guitar years before while working at Washburn.
"I had been attached to Mike's work for years before I even knew who the heck he was," he says. Since then, White has acquired four Shermans—and he has six more on order.
Local Wood, Carefully Guarded
Sherman takes the utmost care when choosing materials for hiscreations: He uses quartersawn lumber from local mills, and out-sources only pickups and hardware—veneers and fretboards aremade in-house. "I pride myself on American-made products, andtry to use them wherever possible," he says. "I deal with [SouthernCalifornia-based pickup company] Nordstrand a lot, becausethey're willing to build what I want, and they have a laser cutterand can accommodate fan-fret pickups."If Sherman isn't getting the right tone out of a certain wood,he'll manipulate it until it's just right. "I can tailor the sound,"he says. "Believe it or not, if you glue two pieces of woodtogether, they become one different type of wood with a voicingall its own." In this manner, Sherman blends beauty, elegance,and playability into something many players find stunning, bothvisually and tonally.

More Deaths as Another Stage Collapses at Belgian Festival Featuring 30 Seconds To Mars, Foo Fighters
Hollywood Reporter – Early reports out of Belgium and Holland Thursday are claiming that six people were killed and others injured as a tent collapsed at an annual music festival called Pukkelpop.
The BBC is now reporting four were killed, details are still emerging as to number of dead and injured.
According to Holland's Trouw.com, one of the tents where a band was playing was blown down after a storm, resulting in chaos and injuries.
Per Belgian radio station Studio Brussel, ambulances have been in and out of the festival and the remainder of today's festival has been canceled.
The sudden storm Thursday caused the Chateau Tent, where American band Smith Westerns played, or were about to play, to collapse. The band wrote on Twitter: "Stage collapsed max almost got crushed by the tress, I hope pukkelpop has insurance bc all our [stuff] is broke."
A brief but fierce storm produced strong winds and large hail which brought down trees, per reports. Additionally, a sound tower beside the main stage came loose.
The annual festival's lineup this year includes many American bands, including 30 Seconds to Mars, Foo Fighters and Rise Against.
Jared Leto tweeted that "four stages were down" and that it was "still raining" Thursday from the festival. "Be safe," he added.
