2.0 out of 5 stars Thoroughly disappointing,
A. Whitehead "Werthead" (Colchester, Essex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Path Of Daggers: Book 8 of the Wheel of Time: 8/12 (Mass Market Paperback)
The Path of Daggers was originally published in October 1998 and was released two and a half years after the previous volume (which had ended on a cliffhanger), the longest gap between books in the series at that time. As a result, expectations for this book were high. When the book finally arrived, people were taken aback by its slimness (at least compared to other books in the series) and its failure to address that cliffhanger from the prior volume. Reviews of the book were negative and even today some fans continue to cite this as the weakest book in the series (although the majority agree that that honour goes to the tenth book). For a series that had almost been immune to criticism up to this point, this book marked a serious turning point for the worse.
The book opens in the aftermath of events in A Crown of Swords. Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, has been proclaimed King of Illian after killing the Forsaken Sammael. His satisfaction is short-lived, however. The Seanchan have returned in great force and in a blitzkrieg campaign lasting several weeks have swept through the south-west of the continent, conquering the kingdom of Tarabon and capturing the cities of Amador and Ebou Dar (the capitals of Amadicia and Altara, respectively) in rapid succession. Already fearing they might march on Illian next, Rand concocts a plan to bottle them up in Ebou Dar, but is unaware that there are those in his own ranks who are preparing to move against him.
Meanwhile, in Ghealdan Perrin makes contact with Queen Alliandre as part of his mission to track down and neutralise the increasingly insane and dangerous 'Prophet of the Dragon', Masema. At the same time, the leaders of the Borderlands have led a vast host southwards for an unknown reason. Nynaeve, Elayne and their loose and fractious alliance of Sea Folk Windfinders, Aes Sedai and Kin have recovered the Bowl of Winds from Ebou Dar and now have to use it to restore normal weather to the world, unaware of the consequences of their actions. And in the White Tower Elaida walks a fine line as she is blackmailed by Alviarin into doing things that will shatter the sisterhood, whilst her secret agents continue their hunt for the Black Ajah.
A plot summary of Path of Daggers sounds exciting, and the news that the book features a significant military showdown between Rand and the Seanchan should be impressive. However, The Path of Daggers is beset by numerous problems that prevent it from being fully enjoyable. First off, the level of filler in this book is much worse than any previous volume. There are several chapters where characters are riding along arguing with one another, or discussing the plot, or making it clear how much they hate one another. These points are slammed home again and again by Robert Jordan for no clear purpose. The battles between Rand and the Seanchan are intriguing and the messy ending to the engagement is an important moment in the series, but it comes far too late in the book. Perrin's story proceeds at an absolute crawl and he barely has any screen-time in the book, whilst Mat has none. Jordan's point that Mat is recovering from his wounds and thus isn't doing anything interesting in the story at this moment is well-taken, but at the same time the ambiguity of Mat's fate in the prior volume was part of what made the book's ending powerful and interesting. It being completely ignored for four and a half years until Book 9 was annoying. However, re-reading the series now this isn't so much of a problem.
Up until The Path of Daggers, the structural and writing problems with the series could to some extent be ignored because the story was still compelling and the reader was encouraged to read on no matter what. However, at this point and through the next two books these problems start to actually interfere with the readability of the books. The pace slows to a crawl and events that would have been covered in a few chapters in previous books now span entire novels. For some reason Jordan ignored the basic writing maxim that as you build up to a series finale you have to increase the pace and intensity of events, and as a result the series becomes somewhat more difficult to read in-depth from this point on.
The Path of Daggers (**�) doesn't suffer from quite so many problems as it did on first release, but it still represents a significant failure in both writing and editing that makes it a shadow of the book it could have been. The book is available in the UK from Orbit and in the USA from Tor.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bored...Zzzz.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Path Of Daggers: Book 8 of the Wheel of Time: 8/12 (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was a big disappointment. Having being introduced into the series by a friend in Febuary 2000, I proceeded to read and purchase all of the WoT books in chronological order. I finished "A Crown of Swords" and went to the bookshop a week later to buy Book 8. After plodding my way through the uninspired plot I came up with several questions. Where's Mat? Why all the political business with Egwene...? Why o why the'folding of arms below breasts'? I thoroughly enjoyed the previous books but this was slow and almost put me off the WoT. Thankfully Book 9 should be out in a little while and Robert Jordan will have taken note of the negative reviews and described the action more graphically and reverted to his original skill and flair.

1.0 out of 5 stars Slower and slower the Wheel turns.....,
By A Customer
This series started off so well- action, pace, adventure, it had it all! Now it looks as if the Wheel of Time will have turned full circle by the time the series ends! Path of Daggers continues the deteriation of this series from its excellent beginnings to the current below-boredom threshold. If only I'd never started reading the series and didn't want to get to the end (if there ever is one?).
A pity Rand doesn't even get into the story until half way through the book, and then achieves so little he may as well not even be in it.
A little less colourful description of the scenery and a lot more plot development in the next book may restore my faith that the books do actually have an end- come on Robert, you can do better than this- just go back and read the first two books in the series and you'll get my drift.
In summary, if you haven't started reading this series yet, now is not the time to start! Wait another 4,6,8,or ten years until its finished(?), then it might be worth reading the whole story in one go, otherwise you'll forget most of the point of the series by the time you get to the end.
P.S. Sorry if you read this Mr Jordan, but after all the hype in the build-up to this book (your best ever, you've been quoted as saying)it was such a terrible let-down. As my teachers used to say 'must try harder'.

I was not disappointed with Path of Daggers, but I would hope the next/last installment won't be long in coming. I re-read the whole series before reading it, and I think that made the difference in how enjoyable it was. If a measure of a good book is that it leaves you wanting more, Path has accomplished it's goal. I want to know what Cadsuane is going to teach the Ashamen and how Logain is going to gain glory. Who's is the other cage that Moriden has, and how Moiraine will return (Min's viewings NEVER fail)
I'm not after a 'quick' fix, but I would like a properly involved resolution with his next book. I would rather wait for a few years and have a 2000+ page finish, than to keep being strung along. Besides, there will always be another age and Rand can show up in someone elses head!
Bring it on!

2.0 out of 5 stars A Disappointing Addition to a Great Saga,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Path of Daggers: The Wheel of Time Book 8 (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was a big disappointment. Unfortunately, Books Seven and Eight of the Wheel of Time have been the weakest entries in the series. What's worse is that the waits between books have been getting longer. Which means that the momentum that had been building up through the first six books has slowly faded away. The only silver lining for Wheel of Time fans is that this book ends with promise. If Jordan can't deliver the goods in Book Nine, it will be clear that his reach exceeded his grasp. Fans expect more after such a long build-up than countless pages describing a trip to a farm, or women squabbling like hens. Give us something to get excited about RJ! This just ain't gonna cut it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Dont be such Cynics,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Path Of Daggers: Book 8 of the Wheel of Time: 8/12 (Mass Market Paperback)
Robert Jordan set out to create one of the greatest fantasy Epics of all time, and up till now has been amazingly successful. However, everyone is complaining that this book is too short, or that it took to long to come out etc. This is simply not true. Since he started Robert Jordan has been giving more than should be expected of any writer. But many people have been spoilt and now expect this all the time. Give the guy a rest. And those people complaining about the plot, calm down. It may be a bit fuzzy for most of the book, but the plot was so complex at the end of the last one that he needed to slow down a bit and start trying to tie up loose ends. Dont worry. It will pick up again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointment, thy name is The Path of Daggers,
Josie Wells - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Path Of Daggers: Book 8 of the Wheel of Time: 8/12 (Mass Market Paperback)
What has happened to this series?! The first 6 books were great, setting higher standards for the genre. So without a doubt this has to be the biggest disappointment EVER of the series. It takes 5 chapters to get to a farm and get up a hill!!! Whenever an action scene materialises (which is rare), its always about weaving the flows of the one power or something thats completely irrelevant about someones clothing or how that asha'man was looking at me funny. And what is the constant obsession with Perrin and Faile's feelings towards each other? The progress in this book is non-existent. Instead of actually interesting stuff we're given dull feelings, details about clothing and the mind numbingly boring shaido! WE GET IT ALREADY, THEY HAVE NO HONOUR! Only buy this book if you want to complete this series.
4.0 out of 5 stars Better focus makes for a better book eight,
Jim J-R (West Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Path Of Daggers: Book 8 of the Wheel of Time: 8/12 (Mass Market Paperback)
A seventy day gap between the previous novel and this one seems to have been a little too long as I have lost track of who several characters are and what others are up to. In a way I pity those readers who have been reading these books as they were published - they do suffer from a lack of catch up at the beginning, instead assuming that you have put one book down the same moment that you pick up the next.
This book starts well, then ducks down a little toward the end, before jumping back up again at it's conclusion. For the most part the storyline comes in chunks, with a section the length of any normal paperback focussing on just one character's story before moving on to the next, which makes the book feel more structured than one that flits around. Toward the end though it switches back to flitting for a while as the various threads are tied up, which while necessary feels a little awkward.
The main focus of this novel is back to Rand I felt, but with equal parts dedicated to Elayne and Egwene in the first half and to a lesser extent Perrin. Several coincidences occur that are just about believable as the characters pretty much continue with what they were doing before, with the added bonus of a Seanchan attack. I still think of Rand as the main character despite the rather large ensemble cast and so was glad to be back in his head for significant portions of this book.
I am disappointed with the characterization of Nynaeve in this one though - despite only a day having passed from the previous novel she has undergone something of a paradigm shift overnight and barely says a word. Mat is also completely absent again which is irritating as we're left completely in suspense. There were only a few passages that irritated me. One big reveal was made far to easily, then another. The aforementioned coincidence was deal with well, but there was an occurrence near the end where the reader was left to infer what had happened in the narrative, but the glossary at the end gave it away completely. I recommend not reading the glossaries - they contain spoilers but none of the information you need about what has happened in the earlier books.
4.0 out of 5 stars Patience is a Virtue,
By A Customer
It would appear that many readers are losing patience as Jordan's tale unfolds. I suppose they would prefer it if the Seanchan signed a nonaggression pact sealed by Mat's marriage to the Empress, if Taim and the Aes Sedai finally found the pull of ta'veren too powerful to resist, and, after the discovery of a secret cache hidden in Tar Valon, everyone armed themselves with sa'angreal to wink through a gateway to Shayol Ghul, blasting, with the requisite degree of drama, the Forsaken and the Dark One into the next Age. This would certainly satisfy action junkies inured to the simplicity and contrivence of authors such as Eddings, McCaffrey, or Brooks. And, as ninety-five percent of fantasy fiction is pure pulp published at the rate of at least one book a year, demanding little in terms of reader participation or discrimination, I suppose it should not be surprising that many readers are abandoning this series in favor of the quick fix.
Granted, this book is, along with "Eye of the World," one of the weaker offerings of the series. Devoted in large part to serving the evolution of the larger storyline, much of "Path of Daggers" is concerned with developing the plot and positioning the characters in obvious preparation for the next major phase in the story. Like a strategist readying the field, Jordan is moving his players around prior to launching the next campaign. But to do otherwise, I would contend, would do much to undermine the realism and credibility he has built up in the story thus far, and could only be accomplished by means of contrivance or expediency that would erode the plot construction he has worked so skillfully to create. Certainly it would be expedient to swiftly bring the army of rebel Aes Sedai before Tar Valon by means of a gate, or have Mat accidentally bump into the Empress on the streets of Ebou Dar, but only at a cost to the realism of the story. However, what has distinguished Jordan so far from the majority of his fellow writers, beside the sheer scope of his story, is his ability to believably create a vast and multifaceted world interwoven into a rich and multi-layered tale consisting of many threads without tangling either the overall pattern or losing the individual detailed strands of the story. It remains quite an accomplishment for this genre.
Those readers seeking simple diversion through reading - and there's nothing wrong with that - should abandon this work and look elsewhere. Those who want more from their reading will be rewarded in continuing. Finally, for those who have counterposed Martin's new work to Jordan's, let my suggest the following qualification: Much as I admire "Game of Thrones" and "Clash of Kings," and have great expectations for the future, Martin's series has just begun, and has a ways to go before comparisons can become constructive.
1.0 out of 5 stars Too slow and doesn't progress plot,
By A Customer
Like other reviewers I am frustrated and annoyed that, after waiting since July 1996 for this latest volume, the wait has been in vain. If anyone out there picked up Path of Daggers as an introduction to the Wheel of Time they would probably read a couple of chapters and, understandably, ditch it.
Nothing very much happens in 550 pages to progress the plot and the eventual (?)denoument of the whole series. I know American fanatsy authors are taught to pad out the story by including copious descriptions of everything and anything but even so Jordan has written a book that seems to be nothing but. As I read another detailed description of womens' dresses, mens' armour,aristocrats' insignia, castles, inns houses, tapestries, bottles, horses, hair or fingernail colours I began to fear for both my sanity and the english language. Would this man ever run out of adjectives?
This is a real pity. The early books had description, but in context, and a lot of pace, charcter and excitement. They were real "page turners". This is a "put down and pick up when you've exhausted the back of the cornflake packet."
Robert Jordan has created a magnificent saga with many imaginative, stimulating and orginal ideas and characters. What he doesn't seem to be able to do is bring the same focus to the later books that he did to the first. I would love to see someone like David Gemmel handle the same material and develop the story with a verve and drive that the material deserves.
I bought this volume hardback as I did Lord of Chaos and Crown of Thorns. I think I'll wait for the paperback the next time - assuming there is another volume. At this rate there must be a race between the story finishing and Mr Jordan's dotage.

Prince Charlez - West Coast State of Mind
Artist: Prince Charlez
Featuring: Kendrick Lamar
Producer: KNotch
Album: Untitled (TBD)
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 8 votes )
Fresh off his newly signed deal with Island Def Jam, the 21-year-old Prince Charlez is ready to make his imprint on the industry. As is right now. Hailing from Compton, it's only fitting that his new single and DJBooth debut finds him providing a California answer to Jay and Alicia by demonstrating his West Coast State of Mind. Produced by KNotch, the instrumental maintains a simplistic skeleton, with buoyant snares and rising synths that allows Charlez quasi-sung voice to take center stage. To accompany the singer on the song is fellow Angeleno Kendrick Lamar; who drops a guest verse that, in my opinion, is frankly rather neutral; it doesn't add much or subtract much. All in all, it's a decent introduction, and if anything shows some serious promise for Prince Charlez. His distinct drawl could easily prove to be catchy, something that can carry an artist far (see T-Pain). For now, West Coast State of Mind has no official home, but I have to imagine one will form soon. And if this joint is any indication, I'll be eagerly awaiting its arrival.

At Nest, we conduct regular, rigorous tests to ensure that our products are the highest quality. During recent laboratory testing of the Nest Protect smoke alarm, we observed a unique combination of circumstances that caused us to question whether the Nest Wave (a feature that enables you to turn off your alarm with a wave of the hand) could be unintentionally activated. This could delay an alarm going off if there was a real fire.
So, apparently people may wave their arms in a real fire. The company is suspending sales until they come up with a fix and will disable the feature on existing devices.
This is one of the cooler features of the Nest to silent alarms out of reach on the ceiling. Seems a little weird, frankly. If you waving your arms in a fire induced panic, would you just go back to bed if the alarm goes off?

Ted Cruz - The Controlled Opposition: How Another Foreign National Plans to be President of the United StatesSubmitted by barracuda_trader on Mon, 08/26/2013 - 07:00
This is the "TEA Party Conservative" Ted Cruz plan. While pounding the drum that he is opposed to Amnesty and wants a Secure Border, Ted hopes you don't hear the next two amendments he wants to add to Senate Bill 744. Ted wants to more than double immigration to this country at a time when almost half of working age Americans are out of work.
If that's isn't enough, he wants to increase the H1B visa FIVE HUNDRED PERCENT. These are the visas for highly skilled workers, you know, the jobs you send your kids to college for so they can get one of those good jobs. But Ted Cruz wants those jobs to go to foreigners, not Americans.
And if that isn't enough, Ted Cruz wants to DOUBLE the general worker visa. If you can't afford to send your kids to college, don't worry, Ted has a plan to keep them at home too - he'll make sure any job they could get also goes to foreigners. This is an Act of War Against America and the very definition of Treason in the US Constitution. This is Ted's amendments in pertinent part:
Cruz 1324: Green Card (LPR) reform to modernize, streamline and expand legal immigration
Provisions of his amendment include:
· Doubling the overall worldwide green card caps from 675,000 visas per year to 1.35 million per year (not including refugees and asylees): [This is in addition to the 1 million immigrants that come here every year without a work related visa.]
o Family-based green cards: Creates a single family-based visa category that treats all immigrant families equally by redefining "immediate relatives" as "spouses, minor children, and parents of citizens or LPRs."
Cruz 1325: Increase high-skilled temporary worker visas (H-1B visas) five-fold
This amendment would increase the H-1B cap from 65,000 to 325,000. It would also help America retain the people it educates by authorizing dual-intent student visas and address the need for high-skilled labor by creating a block grant to promote domestic high-skilled workers. [Why are we educating foreigners while our own citizens drown in student debt?]
Cruz 1326: Combines Cruz 1324 and Cruz 1325. Implements Green Card reform to streamline and expand legal immigration and increases high-skilled temporary worker visas five fold. [These are for the good jobs Americans go to college to get, only to find companies hiring foreign nationals rather than them, and more often than not turn out to be permanent positions.]

I would like to see us
I would like to see us dramatically increase our legal immigration while dramatically decreasing illegal immigration. After that, let a free market figure it out.
So far, I have pretty much no alarm bells with Cruz. Which is a whole lot more than I can say for 99% of politicians.

Sadly, his position on work visa's is very similar to Rand.
The both want to dramatically expand the number of workers entering the U.S. So apparently "free market" doesn't extend to "free labor market", as business is provided the relief of foreign workers and citizen workers are left to fend for themselves.
I will not support Cruz.
I get this gut feeling that he is similar to Mike Kelly. Mike touted, no, bragged, that he was Tea-party and that our Republic was long overdue to return to the principles of what once made it great.
Then, in 2012, Mike earned a 30% voting rating. He continues to support bush/obama agendas, and went on to vote AGAINST Amash's HR2399. Mike will make up for those votes right before election, but no worries, he will return to his sorry habits after the people vote him in again. He is after all, R.
So, Cruz may be good right now, but if/once in office can potentially further destroy what little we have left. Remember how bush w. sounded before he became president - exactly like Ron Paul.
If Cruz really cares for our Republic, he will keep the seat that he has and continue to make the difference there. He will not politicize, and try to twist his version of natural-born, but rather hold to principle and the Law of the Land. IMO.

I think hes a politician and

f him.
Always blame on someone else
when Americans can compete for the same job with immigrants, its someone's fault for letting them in to compete. When our English speaking college graduates can't compete with non-native English speaking college graduates, it is also the fault of someone who allow such competition to exist.
This is the complaint on Cruz, then we deserve the kind of government we have now and in the future.
You make a fair point, but
keep in mind that many companies would rather hire immigrants over natives, because they (often correctly) assume that they'll be able to take advantage of immigrant workers.
As for that, sure, those immigrants could always quit...but then what? Go on welfare? Given how many people in the US are already on it, coupled with our current unemployment rate, it wouldn't be much of a stretch to believe so.
Either way, I see it as a lose/lose scenario, at least given the way the system currently operates. Take away the handouts from able-bodied people (far easier said than done, I know), actually enforce laws regarding *illegal* aliens and then maybe it'd work out in the long term.
Also, there are several complaints people have about Cruz, this is far from the first one. I've been pretty lukewarm with the guy, but having just caught wind of this...it's definitely a red mark in my book.
A signature used to be here!
I don't think those immigration laws regarding living or working here should even exist. All our ancestors are immigrants.
On a side note, Cruz will never qualify to be President.
That would be fine IF....
...there were no welfare or social programs financed by tax dollars, right?

Why anyone would listen to Michio Kaku I don't know. What I do know is that H1B visa entrants from India into the tech field are most often incompetent. From what I've heard even their professors back in India are hopeless.
What we SHOULD be doing, instead of playing politics.
Should we now be concerned
with his allegiance? Born in Canada to a Cuban father?
The MSM is pushing him because in their eyes two wrongs make a right. There's no difference between republicans and democrats, or the MSM that promotes them.
Sometimes you Paulites can be
Sometimes you Paulites can be a little dramatic.

There is a shortage of highly skilled workers in some fields because most of our students are too lazy to study hard enough to compete with foreign students for jobs as engineers.
Oh get off it
Ted Cruz is a bad mamma jamma. I live in Texas, now I will say he is no Ron Paul, he isn't even a Rand Paul. But a friend of liberty, yes. He is our red headed cuban step child that we need to keep close so he doesn't go sleeping with his second cousins in the back of the reunion. I would vote Cruz over Christie any day. Either way, I am not going to pay attention to the pres race this time. Not as important as the locals.
You just got PAULED!
He may actually be loyal to liberty & the constitution, but...
...he is not eligible.
The fact he is even considering running shows me he is likely not loyal to the constitution, and if he is, he better go read it a few more times.
PEOPLE OPPOSING TYRANNY - Real Grass Roots!
Are you a POT or a PET - Person Embracing Tyranny?
I think he is completely fake
I don't believe he loves liberty, he only pretends to cause he wants to stay in office. I beleive, once in office as president, he will do nothing different than Bush. I would rather write in Mickey Mouse than vote for Cruz or Christie, but then again, Mickey is for raising taxes. ;)
More and more MSM sites are
More and more MSM sites are pushing him as a 2016 contender over Paul.
Makes you wonder.
Southern Agrarian
has stepped back.. he signed up for a second term as Senator, Kentucky law says he can not run for Senate and president. Maybe he will change, he has that right, but for now.. he's stepping back from the presidential bid and letting the others face the music.
He isn't stepping back from
He isn't stepping back from it.
Quite the opposite. Sen. Rand Paul's fundraising has picked up the pace
He's in the daily political headlines every day.
So Granger you're little comment above is evidence that YOU are actually controlled opposition lying about things like you do.
Read your article
within YOUR article
//Paul has said he will decide on a presidential run after next year's midterm elections. He can't file for the Senate and the presidency simultaneously, but there are ways he could keep his options open until he sees how he performs in early caucuses and primaries.//
I said he has stepped back.. it says in your article, " he will decide on a presidential run after next year's midterm elections."
That is stepping back in my book.
I would LOVE to see Rand not only run for president but WIN, and I FULLY EXPECT TO BE A RAND PAUL DELEGATE IF he goes there.
I think it's very smart of him to step back from the presidential arena and let Americans hear what the other candidates have to say, let MSM beat them up, or see who MSM is promoting, see who Rove is supporting, so we can come back, rather than watch Rand get attacked by MSM for Hunter (racist), Benton (grudges), and other issues he's been taking a undeserved beating. Maybe you just like seeing Rand attacked in MSM and YOU are the controlled opposition? Hmmm?

Larry Lucchino reflects on 10 years since Red Sox' trade for Alex Rodriguez fell through
|12.24.13 at 10:11 am ET
Red Sox president and CEO Larry Lucchino, in an interview with WEEI.com on Monday, looked back at the Red Sox' near-deal for then-Rangers shortstop and reigning American League MVP Alex Rodriguez in December 2003. The deal fell just over 10 years ago when the Players Association ruled that Rodriguez had sacrificed too much value in his deal while renegotiating his 10-year, $252 million deal in an effort to fit within the Sox' budget.
"It was as vivid a reminder as one could have about the old cliche: The best trades are often the ones that never happen," said Lucchino. "It was also a bit of a reminder of the power and influence of the Players Association. I can't say how it would have influenced our operating practices going forward. It would be purely hypothetical. I'm not going to try. All I can say is we wanted to win, we were in it to win it, and we wanted to win it right then. We didn't want a long period of time to pass. Having won three in 10 years, we feel a sense of satisfaction and pride in what has developed in place of an A-Rod-led Red Sox."
The trade not only would have brought Rodriguez to Boston in exchange for outfielder Manny Ramirez and then-Single-A pitcher Jon Lester, but it also would have set in motion another move dealing Nomar Garciaparra to the White Sox for outfielder Magglio Ordonez (to replace Ramirez) and right-hander Brandon McCarthy. The implications for the Red Sox' run of three championships in the past 10 seasons would have been considerable, encompassing not just those six principal players but also potentially such other notables as Edgar Renteria, Josh Beckett and Jacoby Ellsbury.
For a more thorough look at the near-deal and its aftermath, click here.

The new Moto X, with high-end specs, metal frame, and leather back, is a real contender September 5, 2014 at 7:42 am
Motorola has unveiled its second-gen flagship phone: the Moto X. It keeps the same name as last year's offering, and also the same kind of factory-level customization as its predecessor, but everything else is much better. The new Moto X has much better, flagship-level internals, a glorious Super AMOLED 1080p display, and the chassis now has a metal edge. The Moto Maker customization tool remains, but the second-gen Moto X now has the option of having a real leather back — and according to early hands-on impressions, it feels fantastic. In short, the new Moto X is now a bona fide flagship phone that actually stands a chance of competing against the likes of the HTC One M8 and the upcoming iPhone 6.
Real-time emotion detection with Google Glass: An awesome, creepy taste of the future of wearable computers September 4, 2014 at 9:11 am
The wily geniuses at the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany have created the world's first real-time emotion detection app for Google Glass. The app (glassware, as Google prefers to call it) can also accurately detect someone's age or gender. Real-time emotion detection could be of great use for people with disorders such as autism, who often struggle to interpret facial expressions, or simply for people who struggle to divine their partner's true emotional state when they say that they're "fine.'
Google begins developing its own quantum computer chips, to prepare for the future September 3, 2014 at 11:18 am
Google's Quantum Artificial Intelligence team, not content with merely sharing a D-Wave kinda-quantum computer with NASA, has announced that it will now be designing and building its own quantum computer chips. Rather than start from scratch, Google will absorb UC Santa Barbara's quantum computing group, which recently created a superconducting five-qubit array that shows promise for scaling up to larger, commercial systems. Google, probably just behind IBM, now appears to be one of quantum computing's largest commercial interests.

Google X, the web titan's secretive special projects lab, has revealed that it's working on a drone-based delivery system called Project Wing. Outwardly, the Google X project sounds a lot like Amazon's Prime Air, but a closer inspection reveals that Google has loftier goals than air-dropping emergency bottles of sriracha.
Apple's iWatch is finally coming in September: Are you ready for the wearable revolution? August 28, 2014 at 10:46 am
After years of rumors, leaks, and false starts, it seems the stars are finally swinging into alignment this fall: Apple is now expected to unveil an iWatch smartwatch alongside its new large-screen iPhone 6 at an event on September 9. Presumably the iWatch would also be released alongside the iPhone 6, a week or two later. Previous rumors had pointed to an October unveil for the iWatch, but it seems Apple has moved it forward — possibly in response to the Samsung Gear S, LG G Watch R, and the Moto 360, all of which will be released over the next month or two. Just as the iPhone and iPad popularized the smartphone and tablet, will the arrival of the iWatch signal the beginning of the wearable computing revolution?

Here's what I don't understand
If we allow our bodies to naturally overcome sickness then we can get a natural immunization from it. Why isn't this an option pursued by doctors?
In theory, natural immunization would be passed from generation to generation, building stronger as it went on. In my mind, prescriptions & vaccines are bandaids for the issue, but not a real solution.

- pets not allowed
Why The Owner chose Playa del Coco
In 2008 we took our first trip to the town of Playas Del Coco and absolutey fell in love with it, it's people and it's relaxed way of life. We knew after our first time in Coco that it would become a regular destination that we would return to again and again. It only made sense to purchase a condo so that we could keep coming back.
What makes this condo unique
Our condo has the best view of our pool in our community. We were lucky enough to be one of the first to purchase a condo here, so we had the option to choose from all of them. We ended up choosing this condo in our community, because it has the best view of the pool and is one of only two condos in our community that has an ocean view.
Our community is a two minute walk to the beach and Pacific Ocean. You're also close enough to enjoy what the town of Coco has to offer, you can take a short walk (by beach or by road) to the center of town and spend your time at one of the town's many restaurants, cafes, bars or shops.
Our condo is in the perfect location. It's far enough from the main strip to enjoy peace and quiet, but still close enough to walk to everything Coco has to offer.

Harrisburg, PA - The Trenton Thunder used a five-run third inning to propel them to an 11-4 victory over the Harrisburg Senators at Metro Bank Park, clinching the Eastern League Championship in a three-game sweep. It is Trenton's third league title. They went 6-0 in the playoffs, defeating the Binghamton Mets in the divisional round before eliminating the Senators.
The Senators took an early 1-0 lead in the first on an RBI single by Justin Bloxom. However, with two out in the third for the Thunder and one on, Nathan Karns hit Jose Pirela with an 0-2 pitch and it was downhill from there for the Senators. The next six hitters all reached, the big blow being Tyler Austin's RBI triple. Karns didn't make it out of the inning, lasting just two and two-thirds.
Trenton added to its lead in the fifth on a two-run homer off the bat of Ali Castillo, who was named the playoff MVP. He went 5-for-10 in the championship series and 8-for-21 in the playoffs with five RBIs.
The Senators battled back with a pair of runs in the sixth on Jeff Howell's two-run single, but left two runners on base and could not inch any closer. On the night, they went just 3-for-16 with runners in scoring position and stranded 13 base runners.
Ricky Hague had three of Harrisburg's 14 hits to lead the way for the Senators. Billy Burns, Brian Goodwin, Sean Nicol, and Jason Martinson delivered two hits apiece.

Other than my pickle-fingering an entry during the install, this worked out quite well! After my mess up, i just had to fix the config file and be on my way.
Would be great to add support for choosing an ftp server and directory to place the zip in, have it auto unzip if wanted, and have it run at certain intervals via crontab.
I recommend this to anyone.
