In reality this means Motorola will no longer sell or market its smartphones and tablets in South Korea. The company's R&D center will also shut down operations.
Motorola is not the only manufacturer to exit the dense South Korean market. HTC also fled the country recently. Of course, Samsung, LG are the most popular brands out there, along with Apple.
Here is the official explanation from Motorola:
Our Home business and iDEN go-to-market operations will continue operating in Korea. We will also continue to provide customer service and warranty support for mobile devices that have been sold in Korea.
This was a difficult but necessary decision. We are very proud of the work done by our talented teams in Korea, and the many contributions they have made to our business over the years. We will offer relocation to about 10 percent of our R&D staff there. For other employees we will strive to make the transition as smooth as possible.
We are grateful for the support of our customers in Korea."

MONDAY, July 23, 2012 (MedPage Today) — Women with high plasma levels of bicarbonate were at decreased risk for developing type 2 diabetes, a nested case-control study showed.
Those whose plasma bicarbonate exceeded the median level of 22.4 mmol/L at baseline were less likely to develop diabetes over a period of 10 years, according to Ernest I. Mandel, MD, of Harvard Medical School in Boston, and colleagues.
After adjustment for hypertension, body mass index (BMI), and plasma creatinine, there was a 4 percent decrease in the likelihood for developing diabetes with each unit increase in bicarbonate, the researchers reported online in CMAJ.
Epidemiologic studies have linked biomarkers of metabolic acidosis with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, but it has not been clear whether the acidosis plays a causative role in the development of diabetes.
To examine this prospectively, Mandel and colleagues compared plasma bicarbonate levels among participants in the Nurses' Health Study who had blood drawn in 1989-1990.
Between 1990 and 2000, 630 women developed type 2 diabetes.
When they were compared with controls, those who developed diabetes had higher baseline BMI (30 versus 26), more hypertension (52 percent versus 31 percent) and dyslipidemia (49 percent versus 39 percent), and more often had a family history of diabetes (48 percent versus 23 percent).
Women who developed diabetes also had higher baseline values for C-reactive protein, fasting insulin, and hemoglobin A1c.
Further adjustments for cholesterol level, smoking, physical activity, and menopausal status had little effect.
In addition, they adjusted for baseline C-reactive protein level and again found no differences in odds ratios.
"The association between lower plasma bicarbonate and development of diabetes may be explained by metabolic acidosis promoting insulin resistance, and this association may be independent of systemic inflammation, given the similar results observed even after we adjusted for C-reactive protein," Mandel and colleagues observed.
They suggested that the association between bicarbonate and diabetes also may be independent of levels of dietary acid, because they adjusted for factors that influence this, such as intake of animal protein and fruits and vegetables.
Further research will be needed "to confirm this finding in other populations, to elucidate the mechanism by which this occurs, and to explore increased dietary or supplemental alkali intake as a novel strategy for prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus," they concluded.
Limitations of the study included the possibility of measurement errors in bicarbonate levels since specimens were shipped and stored and the availability of only a single measure of bicarbonate, so no information was available on how changes in levels might influence risk.

Scare may increase breast-feeding
The scare may prompt more mothers to consider breast-feeding their infants, a Medical Association council member said.
'We are not blaming any mothers in this case as they must be stressed enough. But we have always advocated breast-feeding.' said Dr Lee Ka-yan. 'After this incident, mothers about to have babies would probably reconsider breast-feeding their children.' Chairwoman of the Hong Kong Breast-feeding Mothers Association Vivian Leung Yuet-kan said that if more mothers had breast-fed, there would have been less panic.
'We don't see it as the mother's problem. The environment in Hong Kong is not very supportive of breast-feeding.
'If you ask the Government whether they support breast-feeding, they'll say 'yes'. But in the past two days, the Government has not once come out to say that breast-feeding is the safest way to feed your baby.' A survey conducted last year by the Baby Friendly Initiative Hong Kong showed 47 per cent of mothers breast-fed their infants after they left hospital. But only 16 per cent of mothers still breast-fed two months after giving birth, a separate study showed.

JERUSALEM (Nov. 26)
Political analysts here said today that a meeting between Premier Shimon Peres and King Hassan of Morocco was unlikely at this time although the two leaders have just stated publicly they would be willing to meet.
Hassan told French journalists yesterday he would like to meet the Israeli Premier for direct negotiations if Peres came up with serious proposals for a solution of the Middle East conflict. Peres said here today that he would gladly visit Morocco or anywhere else at any time if he received an invitation from Hassan, or that he would gladly host Hassan in Jerusalem "to talk peace." He confirmed there have been "exchanges of messages" between himself and the Moroccan ruler who is the current chairman of the Arab League.
"In my view, anyone can contribute to the advancement of peace in our region, especially heads of state. King Hassan could have an important contribution," Peres said in response to Hassan's statement.
But the analysts said today that Peres does not need Hassan's mediation in the peace process at present because the main objective of his foreign policy is to reach some sort of agreement with King Hussein of Jordan.
They noted that unlike the negotiations that preceded President Anwar Sadat's trip to Jerusalem in 1977–which Hassan played an important part in arranging — Jordanian-Israeli contacts do not depend on outside Arab intervention. The U.S. is the main broker in that process. (Washington Reaction, P.3.)
According to some observers here, Hassan wants to play a mediating role in the Arab-Israeli conflict for his own political ends and is more interested in doing that than the parties to the conflict are in seeking his intervention.
Nevetheless, Israel has had contacts with Morocco over the years and, considering that the latter is an Arab League member-state, they have not been unfriendly. Peres in fact met with Hassan five years ago when he was a member of the Labor opposition in the Knesset. His secret visit to Morocco at the time was subsequently leaked to the press. But the content of his talk with Hassan has never been disclosed.
Morocco has become relatively open to Israelis in recent years. It hosted a delegation of Knesset members to a conference there last year. Israelis of Moroccan origin get visas to visit that country without much difficulty.

You should talk to the people that SWIM in them lakes! IMHO, they should be committed...
nice picture. Did you take it?
I'm in Beaumont, on the other side of the Sabine River from you, and on the morning last month when we got snow, I was on a break at work and saw a poor, deranged soul riding his bike along the service road that morning, with snow all around.
I don't remember it being much warmer in August!
Enjoy the blog! I grew up in this area... I sure don't miss that cold!!
- Greg
Yeah those are my home waters and sometimes, well sometimes the water gets HARD. The tradeoff is that it kills off the crawly bitey critters that made my dog afraid to go out in the yard for awhile after we moved to Texas. Not so good for bikes, but not impossible for the really dedicated (I do not count myself among them). X country skiing can give you as good a workout as your bike ever did though. Just have to get them to stop plowing away the snow and we'd be set! Wool sweaters and good to go.
I was at RTC a few years ago for my sons graduation in late November, I am from AZ and the place was brutal........
I hear you Xavier. I was in Division 919 out of Great Lakes. One... Chicago... Two Chicago...
There was nothing worse than getting the midnight sidewalk snow shoveling "watch". February was cold!
I do enjoy living in Houston, but from time to time I do miss the cold.

We Love Katamari
Review by vihena
"Girls love this game! Seriously! That means it's FUN!"
The first Katamari Damacy was deemed one of the best Playstation 2 titles you could possibly own. The gameplay was entirely new and unique. Never seen before. Incredibly simple, and addictively fun. We Love Katamari is no different. If you haven't played the first one, NOW is the time. If there is only one PS2 game I would ever recommend, it would have to be Katamari. It's also on the top 10 list of favorites for girl gamers!
Gameplay 9/10
How is this different from the first Katamari Damacy? It's no different at all. The objective is to take a ball that can get stuff stuck to it, and roll it up. Starting with small objects to increase the ball's size to roll up bigger and bigger objects within the time limit. It sounds incredibly simple, but because of this unique little gameplay, it's incredibly (and surprisingly) fun! You start off rolling up small things like paper-clips and 4-leaf clovers, but eventually, you start rolling up small animals, such as mice, cats, varieties of dogs, and you get big enough to roll up larger objects, like household appliances, and people. It's very funny to hear these people scream comically. Some of them sound like they even enjoy being rolled up. Eventually you get even bigger and start picking up automobiles, large animals (like giraffes and elephants) buildings, houses, and bridges. For the hardcore gamers, extra challenge is presented to find all the presents and the cousins in each level. The game is overall, a lot easier to beat than the first one. Meeting the objectives is a lot easier for the casual gamer. There isn't much frustration involved. It's just plain fun. If you're hardcore enough to play all the way through and unlock absolutely everything, be prepared to spend about 100 hrs or more on it (mind you, 99% of the objectives can be done in 30 or so hrs). The cooperative multiplayer aspect of the game is a great addition as well, if you have a significant other that you'd like to play with, or a good gaming partner. One player controls the left side of the Katamari, while the other player controls the right side. They both have to keep in constant communication to determine which direction the Katamari will ultimately go. There is also a speed bonus with playing multiplayer - they move twice as fast as a single player game.
How much fun is this game? Here's the keyline - My wife rarely plays video games. She was hooked onto this for two weeks straight, putting in at least 30 hrs total. She's addicted to the wonderful gameplay.
Controls 6/10
Although the type of control for this game is necessary, it's by no means the best. It's very much like steering a tank, where your left analog stick controls the left track, and the right stick controls the right stack. You push both analog sticks up to move forward, push down on both of them to go down, and push up left/right on both to go left/right, or down left/right on both of them to back up left/right. If you pull one analog stick up, and one analog stick down, you'll do sharper turns. Unfortunately, to get good at the game, you must learn how to properly do sharp turns, otherwise you'll end up frustratingly hitting a lot of walls and objects, and lose some of the things you've picked up. Also worth noting is that the turning circle of Katamari Damacy 2 is not as good as Katamari Damacy 1. The controls in 2 are smoother, and you don't wobble as much, but the turns are harder to make. You'll find many casual gamers twisting their arms, and leaning to one side until they fall off their seat (which is quite entertaining to watch).
Graphics ?/10
I really can't rate the graphics. Mainly because it's obviously intentional that they chose such blocky characters, and 2 frame animations. However, as a comparison with Katamari 1, The graphics have improved slightly. You can tell that the textures are sharper, more high resolution. The characters are also a little bit more animated than the previous one. Polycount hoever, is still pretty much the same. This goes for objects as well as people. The lighting is pretty flat, and hasn't really been improved. The overall style and look is very cartoonish, with a low production look to it. Some may feel cheated that so little was put in the graphics, while others will be entertained by how it meshes well with the game.
Sound 5/10
The sound effects in this game are humorous and simple. It gets the job done. They're not outstanding, but it meshes well with the environment. There is no ambient noise, and creatures do not make noise until you pick them up. The only things that seem to make sounds before you pick them up are police officers who try to shoot your ball when you get to a certain size - which can be annoying, and you want to pick them up right away to stop the annoyance. When you pick something up, you hear a cartoonishly satisfying "shloop!" noise, no matter what size the object happens to be. There are various tones to this, to prevent repetitive annoyance.
Music 9/10
The music has always been a major highlight with Katamari Damacy 1, Katamari Damacy 2 is no different. The tunes are soothing, and upbeat. There is a large enough variety of music that you won't get bored. There are one or two tracks that I find gratingly annoying, but they suit the environment and style well. Fortunately, there is a BGM selection. The game recommends a track, that you can switch to any other track that you've already listened to (so you have to unlock tracks as you go). The very wonderful thing is that almost all the BGM can be applied to any other level, and it gives a completely different feel for the level. Some may argue that the first Katamari Damacy has better music, but that's up to you to decide.
Experience 9/10
Overall, the experience of Katamari Damacy 2 is much better than the first one. With all these extra modes of gameplay, you won't get bored of it. The amount of crazy whacky things that you can pick up (like a cat wearing a diving mask underwater) is very entertaining. I've had a captivated audience of 15 people (most of which aren't even gamers) watch one person play, fully entertained.
Differences between the first and second Katamari:
Katamari Damacy 1's main objectives were almost always time limit based. Make your Katamari a certain size before the time runs out to complete your objective.
Katamari 2 is roughly the same, but there are extensions to those objectives. One example is the Campfire stage, where you control a big ball of flame. The objective is to get the ball of fire big enough to take to the bonfire location and start a nice huge campfire. The ball will continually lose its flame, so you must pick up objects to keep the flame alive. Living beings cannot be picked up, but you can light them on fire. They run comically.
Katamari 1 had about 3 different stages - the house, around town, and the world. Katamari 2 offers way more variety of stages, including inside a school, a racetrack, underwater, a flower paradise, and a gingerbread house, witch included. The "World" has now been broadened to include monuments around the world.
Overall 9/10
Do not bother renting this game. BUY IT. It's totally worth it. The first one was worth it as well for the outstanding price. If you liked the first one, you will LOVE the second one. There is absolutely nothing disappointing about this game. Any gamer, no matter what favorite genre, will like this game if they give it a chance. It truly is that great.

A teenage drug dealer has been sentenced to two years in detention for stabbing a customer in broad daylight in Epsom High Street.
Deighton Wilson, 17, from Thornton Heath, was handed down the detention and training order at Guildford Crown Court on Tuesday. Normally youth offenders spend half the period in custody.
Last month the jury returned a unanimous verdict of guilty of wounding, a lesser charge to the one he had been accused of, which was wounding with intent.
Wilson stabbed Carlos Ferreira in the ribs, thigh and leg during the afternoon of November 27 last year.
During the trial Wilson claimed that he only stabbed Mr Ferreira in self-defence after he and his friend Dean Price stole cannabis from him during a drug deal gone wrong.
Before the trial started, Wilson - who was 16 at the time of the stabbing - had already pleaded guilty to possessing a knife and five bags of cannabis, worth £50, with the intent to supply.
The court heard that the trio met in Rosebery Park in Epsom before travelling to the high street where a fight broke out outside Santander Bank that afternoon.
Mr Ferreira, a Portuguese man who has lived in the UK for nine years, said that by the time they reached the high street Wilson "ran to start a fight with my friend".
He said: "I tried to stop it and I pushed Wilson. Then he came in front of me and stabbed me. I felt something on my ribs. I felt something was wrong."
The victim ran off across the road, towards Derby Square, followed by Wilson.
Mr Ferreira added: "If I had stayed there he would have stabbed me even more because he came after me for about five seconds."
Prosecutor Richard Elliott told the court: "When you run a small business you can get insurance for fire damage and theft and if something goes wrong you can call the police.
"Drug dealers need their own insurance policy. This man has his own insurance policy which is carrying a knife."
Mr Ferreira was released from prison last October after serving six months for a string of burglaries in 2012 in Epsom - from the Ladbrokes betting shop, William Hill bookmakers, Pizza Express, Mountain Warehouse, Spreadeagle Walk and Forfront Net.

Adriatic Explorer - Great Cruise on the majesty: Thomson Majesty Cruise Review by cruiser9320
Overall Member Rating
Adriatic Explorer - Great Cruise on the majesty
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Corfu
We did not arrive at the ship until 22:30 however check in was speedy, we arrived at our cabin 907 and we were surprised to find that our junior suite had a balcony, which was a great surprise. at 22:45 we had the safety drill and set sail.
Our cabin was a good size, and spotlessly clean. Although a suite it wasn't overly big, there was just enough room for three of us. I think the room would of been bigger without all the furniture, such as a large glass table, two huge lamps, and vases of flowers. We cannot give enough praise to our housekeepers Anthony and Rocky, nothing was ever too much trouble, they are both a credit to Thomsons. There is a safe in the room and a minibar which are both available for an extra charge. The furniture on the balcony consisted a two chairs and More a table, however it would of been great to have a sun lounger.
The cleanliness of the ship cannot be faulted, hand sanitiser was available all over the ship and at meal times staff stood at the restaurant entrances to ensure that every passengers hand were sanitised.
The food on the ship was lovely, at evenings we ate at the Seven Seas restaurant and for breakfast we ate at cafe royale. The buffet restaurant was also tasty with plenty of selection however we preferred the waiter service for our meals at night. Our waiter Amro was very attentive and catered to my dads gluten free diet ensuring that dad was given gluten free bread for breakfast and dinner. Dad was also given the next days menu so he could pick what he wanted and a gluten free option would be made.
We enjoyed the entertainment on the ship especially the guest comedian however we preferred to sit on deck 10 with the friends we had made. The barman JD on deck 10 was hilarious and provided us with plenty of laughs. Aya who was waitress at night on deck 10 was also fabulous, we had plenty of laughs and she was brilliant.
In some parts the ship is tatty but its nothing major unless you're just overly picky.
The excursions on the ship were expensive, we did the cable car and old town tour in Dubrovnik however we found it to be slightly rushed and although our guide was informative we struggled to hear him. With the adriatic explorer itinerary also towns are within walking distance or a short taxi ride. My advice is to do your own days out rather than their excrusions.
We enjoyed all the places we visited and we definitely be going back to Dubrovnik for a holiday.
All staff on the ship are very friendly and attentive. All in all we had a great holiday and after coming home we decided to book another cruise. We will therefore be back on the majesty in August and we are very much looking forward to it. Less

Cabin review: junior suite907
A great room with an unobstructed view from the balcony. Although the cabin can sleep a maximum of four I would say that it is only ideal for 3 people. The sofa bed was uncomfortable so I slept on the sofa rather than having the bed pulled out. The bathroom is small but practical. There is too much furniture in the room especially with three people sharing. Our cabin was lovely and clean, with crisp fresh towels changed daily. I am not sure if it is really worth the extra thought.

General News of Thursday, 20 September 2012
Source: XYZ
The National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) says students across the country are more interested in educational policies geared towards offering them quality education, rather than the freebies being bandied about by some political parties.
This was contained in a statement released on Thursday by the leadership of the students body.
The New Patriotic Party, the Progressive People's Party and the Convention People's Party have all made free education an integral part of their policies if given the nod in the December election.
Nana Akufo-Addo, flagbearer of the NPP has vowed to ensure that within the first term if voted into power, he will make sure that all students who graduate from the Junior High School are able to enter the Senior High Schools.
Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom of the PPP is also in the same league with the NPP flagbearer. He has promised to make education to the tertiary level free if he wins the December polls.
But the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) has described these promises as unrealistic and unachievable. The party says the country needs to expand educational facilities as well as enhance the quality of teaching in the schools before think ing about free education.
But in a statement, NUGS said: "The National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) sees the education of the Ghanaian child as a significant one that is why the Union sees issues such as; how to deliver quality education; provision of jobs for jobless graduates and unemployed non-students; how to rally funds to upgrade facilities and infrastructures in the existing schools [as paramount] and not free education [which is] dominating in the coming General Election."
NUGS expressed regret at the deteriorated nature of Ghana's education system saying it is "pathetic that for close to a decade the lives of Ghanaian students have been used for experiment by our national leadership and our politicians seem to be operating on the same tangent".
The statement said "a tour on our various campuses shows signs of lack. It is not a lack of food but lack of quality tools, equipment and infrastructure that will motivate them to unleash their God-giving potential without which our nation-building agenda would be stunted. Education has become the reserve of the rich instead of the constitutional injunction that 'education is a right not a privilege'."
NUGS said many schools across the country continue to record zero percent (0%) in the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE); a situation which has created room for charlatans to extort moneys from students in the name of re-sits.
NUGS stressed that "securing the promise of education for the Ghanaian students and youth will be our reason for taking part in this December polls. We must and will vote for a party with good educational policies and not junk".
The group urged students across the country to vote wisely for the most effective policies because it will define the future of the youth today.

"It also owns patents related to interfaces and controlling electronic devices " Well that why the sharks are circle it.
Just sell to those idiots for 15Billons and retire.

All 3 could do some useful things with it. I just dont want Apple to get it because I dont have any Apple products....lol. I hope Google gets it for my sake.
Seriously.....Android and home automation is a good match. Android is in just about everything else.

I agree, I'm much more comfortable with Google controling key technologies.
5. Bilpocalypse (Posts: 301; Member since: 13 Oct 2012)
I think that Microsoft would be the best bet on this one... mainly because they will make the software for it compatible with all mobile devices, regardless of OS. Apple won't share, and Google won't allow it on MS devices.
6. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
Google would allow it on MS devices as soon as it would be worth it for them too.
10. Bilpocalypse (Posts: 301; Member since: 13 Oct 2012)
Its worth it now. Google makes their money from advertising, they could offer their products on any platform and make money. However, for some reason, they haven't developed windows phone versions of any of their products.
11. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
because the user base just isn't there yet.
12. Bilpocalypse (Posts: 301; Member since: 13 Oct 2012)
There's enough of a user base to warrant it. I think its more of the fact that Microsoft competes with Google where it actually makes money. Apple doesn't offer alot of competing services, where as MS does.
13. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
that's just what you think and that doesn't matter. Google has never been hesitant in offering their services to products that'll help them make money. remember Google is primarily a service company.
14. Bilpocalypse (Posts: 301; Member since: 13 Oct 2012)
The point is... Google can make money by offering their services to WP8/WP7 users, they just don't. Apparently they have been hesitant in this aspect.
15. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
but they don't think it'll be enough to justify the resources used for development. they've been down the road before with WP7.
16. Bilpocalypse (Posts: 301; Member since: 13 Oct 2012)
Its a phone. You don't need alot of resources to develop for the platform. An independent developer could write a google app for the OS in less than a month. That includes working or going to school full time. Google could put together a five man team and probably push out an app a week if they wanted.
17. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5713; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
of course they could but there's a lot more to it than that. it's not something you just finish real quick, put out and say you're done. you've got to keep it updated, squash bugs and add support for different devices for as long as the platform exsists. there's a threshold for when it's just not worth it and for Google WP is beyond that threshold but just for now.
7. roscuthiii (Posts: 2241; Member since: 18 Jul 2010)
I'd rather see them all go in on this one together like Apple and Google did for Kodak's patents. If any single one company gets it, then it's a loss for consumers.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 14/1/2013 (1682 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Enthusiastic crowd for workout
THE Jets were pleased to be back in front of their fans, officially, for the first time since the lockout ended, with Sunday's open practice. About 5,000 showed up on short notice at the MTS Centre. "It was fantastic," said Blake Wheeler, the team's leading scorer in 2011-12. "We all know how privileged we are to play in a market like this. To have that kind of reception... that might be some team's home game's (attendance) in the early going. It was awesome. It was great to be back and to have meaningful practices again with a direction. I've kind of had that for a little bit, but for a lot of guys this was their first real meaningful practice in a long time. It was great to be out there as a group again to start the process."
Impressive Day One
WE liked Mark Scheifele, Kyle Wellwood, Evander Kane, Dustin Byfuglien. The fans were into all of them on Sunday.
Poni has lots of giddyup
ALEXEI Ponikarovsky played his final KHL game a week ago Sunday, then flew to his Florida home last Monday to spend a few days with his family. His final leg to Winnipeg, on Saturday, was only a few hours, so he showed no signs of jet lag.
Measuring progess
JETS coach Claude Noel is aware not every player is starting training camp in the same conditioning place. But he's not prejudging these results. "I need to see who's at the top of their game as the week goes on," he said. "What you're going to have to measure here is the players who have played, been in the American league or in Europe and have been playing, they're going to look good at the start. But how's this going to shape up when you hit Wednesday-Thursday and the other guys hit their stride?
Pressure's on Pavs to play well
ASKED if Ondrej Pavelec might play 40 games this season, Noel said: "I wouldn't put a number on it because it's going to be based on performance. We're going to have to really monitor energy level and fatigue. You're going to have to be in touch with your goaltending guy and your medical guy with regards to your goaltending and how he's feeling. You're going to have to be plugged in to your goalie coach."
Antro a no-go
NIK Antropov was not allowed on the ice for Sunday's opening-day workout, having failed his physical. The veteran forward has a small "upper-body ailment" according to coach Claude Noel, and will be listed as day-to-day and assessed during the week.
Montoya won't be idle
NOEL said early on, he's a fan of backup goalie Al Montoya. "We brought Al Montoya here to play," he said. "How many games is that? We don't know. I like his attitude. I like the way he works. I think we're getting Al Montoya here in a good situation because I think he's at a point in his career where he understands things. How will it be managed? It will probably be managed like everything else: and that will be from the seat of my pants."
Top pick toughs it out
MARK Scheifele arrived in camp just past a flu bug and an annoying travel delay home after the World Junior. It didn't look like it bothered him Sunday. "I liked him," Noel said. "I thought he was good. I thought he battled hard and scored a couple of goals that he had to earn. Well see where he lands and where that goes."
Noel does Scheifele shuffle
ONE more from Noel, when asked what line or with whom he envisioned Scheifele playing:
"All that stuff will play out. I mean, I know you guys will read into this. He's on the third line, the second line, the first line... if you guys wouldn't mind, could you just let me know who is first, second, third and fourth line? That would be appreciated. Then I can call them as such."
-- Tim Campbell, Ed Tait

The behind-the-scene footage from 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' gives a look at the logistics of location shootings and the shooting process on the set of Hobbiton in New Zealand.
Peter Jackson has just given a special Christmas treat to fans of the "Hobbit". Taking to his official Facebook page, the Oscar-winning director posted a brand new production video for "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey", unleashing a look at how he and his crew move the whole production unit from the studio to an open field to recreate Middle Earth.
The 12-minute video also provides footage of the Hobbiton village, where plenty of extras dressing in Hobbit costumes are around. At one point, Elijah Wood shares his thought about returning to the set 11 years after filming "The Lord of the Rings". There's also a glimpse of Andy Serkis who is performing his duty as the second-unit director.
"The Hobbit" focuses on the adventure of Bilbo Baggins as he is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, which was conquered by the dragon Smaug. Approached by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, he finds himself joining a company of dwarves led by Thorin Oakensheild. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapesshifters and Sorcerers.
Martin Freeman tackles the part of Bilbo, while Richard Armitage plays warrior Thorin. Joining them in the cast ensemble are Ian McKellen, Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Christopher Lee, Evangeline Lilly and Luke Evans among others. The movie is due to open in the U.S. theaters on December 14, 2012, while its follow-up "The Hobbit: There and Back Again" will be released nationwide on December 13, 2013.

One of the best things about traveling is seeing how the place you're visiting is different from your home. I've traveled widely in Europe and Russia was probably the most different place I've been yet. To sum it up in one sentence: Russia is not for wimps.
There didn't seem to be many rules there at all, and much of the public safety infrastructure we now take for granted in the US—safe and stable stairways, pedestrian crossings, lanes on the interstates, no holes in sidewalks smoking bans—do not exist. Not even medicines cater to the weak—check out the non-coated ibuprofen tablets.
You all probably know by now that I really enjoy taking pictures of oddball things. Here are a few more images from weird and wonderful Russia:
Even after a week, I never did figure out the rules of parking, other than that there weren't any. Seeing a car parked like this was the rule, not the exception.
Jetskis are permitted on the Neva and the canals, apparently.
Speaking of the canals, they seemed to be a popular drinking spot for many Russians. Can't blame them since a beer costs about a dollar in the store and $3-$4 out at a bar or restaurant. This was a common sight.
We got served orange juice every morning for breakfast. It seems to be a very popular beverage for Russians. I have never seen a machine like this anywhere else…have you?
This isn't too weird, but it is wonderful. Dottie and I had no problem following these footsteps, though we didn't quite become caviar lovers.
Another wonderful thing we did was visit the Udelnaya flea market. A few subway stops north of the city, it felt like the real Russia — no tourists around for miles. I got some great bargains, but we had to walk through a lot of crap stalls selling made in China tracksuits, scarves and the like along the train tracks before we got to the real flea market portion.
The only weird thing about it is that Russians don't heckle you at markets (well, at the non-tourist ones, anyway). I actually had one guy say, when I commented that a certain article cost too much, "think about it and come back later." Had I not known how good Dottie's Russian was, I might have thought she'd mistranslated. I did later return, prepared to pay full price, only to be offered an "Amerikanka" discount!
We saw a lot of limos in Russia. Most were Hummer limos, but I found this one especially eye-catching and snapped a pic while Dottie was standing in front of it . We never did find out how much it cost to rent a pimpmobile.
Back to public safety: while our hotel was a great value, and the people were friendly, the FOUR FLIGHTS of decrepit stairs leading to it left something to be desired. They were full of atmosphere, though, and we took full advantage.
The mounds of sauerkraut and pickled veg at the market were definitely wonderful.
One day we were walking to the Hermitage and came across a military procession. It seemed to be made up entirely of 16-year-olds, but the scale of it was impressive.
And, last but not least, the weirdest thing we came across the entire trip: Upright sunbathing outside the Peter & Paul fortress. Imagine walking along a quiet beach, past parents and kids feeding seagulls, and turning a corner to see this:
Possibly the best picture I've taken my entire life. Dottie, when are we going back?

We don't know what type of heaven these people think they're going to, but God never agreed with Swingers, no matter which way they swing. There is a scripture in the Bible that points out, they will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven. Dean Parave who allegedly claims to be a christian, created a website for christian swingers.
In Galatians 5:21, it clearly says: 'Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.' That word right there, 'revellings,' means orgies, and having orgies is swinging. God says they have no place in heaven. So where you think you going, taking part in some nasty mess like this?
If you love your spouse, you ought not want to share them or yourself with anybody else and you don't know what type of diseases they got or what you could contract. After so many folks dying of AIDS, it looks like people would be scared, but that lust demon has got so many of them deceived. God is a clean God, He's not a nasty God and so, therefore, He expects for us to be clean in our spirits, including our bodies. In the book of I Cor. 6:19, it says: your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. Therefore, how can you share your body with other people and think the Holy Ghost is going to abide in your spirit? So, this is why you can't go to heaven like that.
According to Pimppreacher.com, Dean Parave told Barcroft Media that he doesn't think that his swinger lifestyle conflicts with his Christian beliefs. In fact, he considers it a kind of ministry.
It doesn't matter how good it feels or if you been doing it for a longtime, if you're doing it, stop it now and get delivered and set free, in the name of Jesus.
Is Wife Swapping Fornication? No Says Creator Of Christian Swingers Website
Well it's been confirmed by multiple sources – there is actually a website for wife swapping of Christian Women. A website established just for Christians who are interested in swinging lifestyles, and swapping partners has caused the Body of Christ to...Read full article here.

A real jazz player!!! Finally! :)
As the guy ahead said you're one of the few real jazz players here (i do not consider myself one of you). And that's great.
Very good sax lines, pretty good mixing: midi parts fit very well with the live recorded solo.
Originality = 8 ONLY because it's a jazz standard but the overall arrangment and solo lines are great.
Please keep playing!

We would be using 2 tricks in this tutorial which we posted about long time back in following tutorials:
Add Your Favorite Application Shortcut in Desktop Context Menu in Windows
Create Shortcuts to Themes, Desktop Background, Screen Saver, Display Settings and More
Windows Vista and later have a built-in feature which we revealed long time back. We can put our desired application shortcut in Desktop context menu which was not possible in Windows XP and other older versions.
So in this tutorial, we'll use the same trick to add shortcut in Desktop context menu and will use the shortcut commands to open various tabs present in Desktop Properties window like Theme, Wallpaper, Screen Saver, etc.
So here we start our tutorial:
1. Type regedit in RUN or Start Menu Search box and press Enter. It'll open Registry Editor.
2. Now go to following key:
3. Now we'll need to create a new key under "Shell" key. Right-click on "Shell" key and select "New -> Key". Give the new key any desired name e.g. "Change Sound" (without quotes).
4. Now we'll need to create another new key. Right-click on the new key which we created in the last step e.g. Change Sound and select "New -> Key". Give the new key name of command.
5. Now select "command" key and in right-side pane, you'll see "Default" String value. Double-click on it and set its value to as following:
control mmsys.cpl,,2
6. That's it. Now you'll have a new option "Change Sound" in Desktop context menu.
7. You can use the same steps 3-5 to add other options. Simply give the desired option label in Step 3 and set the required command in Step 5. Following are the required codes which you'll need to provide as "command" in step 5:
Administrative Tools: control admintools
Change Cursor: control main.cpl,,1
Change Date / Time: control timedate.cpl
Change Regional Settings: control intl.cpl
Control Panel: control.exe
Device Manager: mmc.exe /s devmgmt.msc
Empty Recycle Bin: explorer shell:::{645FF040−5081−101B−9F08−00AA002F954E}
Folder Options: control folders
Fonts: control fonts
Internet Options: control inetcpl.cpl
Network Connections:control ncpa.cpl
Power Options: control powercfg.cpl
Printers: control printers
Programs and Features or Add/Remove Programs: control appwiz.cpl
Registry Editor: regedit
Run: explorer shell:::{2559A1F3-21D7-11D4-BDAF-00C04F60B9F0}
Search: explorer shell:::{2559A1F0-21D7-11D4-BDAF-00C04F60B9F0}
Security Center: control wscui.cpl
Security Configuration: msconfig
System Properties: control sysdm.cpl
Task Manager: taskmgr
Task Scheduler: Control schedtasks
Turn Firewall On / Off: control firewall.cpl
User Accounts: Control userpasswords
User Accounts Classic: Control userpasswords2
Windows Switcher (Flip 3D): explorer shell:::{3080F90E-D7AD-11D9-BD98-0000947B0257}
8. That's it.
9. You can add any other desired control panel applet using the same way.
10. To remove any option, simply delete its key.
PS: If you want ready-made registry scripts to add the shortcuts automatically in Desktop context menu, then download following ZIP file, extract it and you'll get several .REG files for adding each shortcut. Just double-click on the desired .REG file, it'll ask for confirmation, accept it and you have done:

Forex Brokers – How to Find One and How Much to Pay
Trading without transaction prices is plainly a benefit. Nonetheless, it in some cases is not the bargain it seems nor the most effective bargain readily available. In fact occasionally it could even truly suck.
The Forex trading market is various to state the securities market. One of its unique attribute is the many techniques brokers utilize to attract investors to trade more. They could assure no exchange or regulative costs, no information charges as well as amazingly -no commissions. To the new forex trader this sounds as well excellent to skip. Make indisputable – the brokers are there to earn cash from YOU. It's just a question of exactly how they attract you to them with disguised offers.
I'll currently show you how you can assess foreign exchange broker's charges and also payment structures to discover the one that will function best for you. As well as don't worry – by choosing a broker you have set absolutely nothing in concrete and could alter at any time.
Payment Structures:
There are three kinds of compensation used by brokers of US Forex Brokers. They are;
taken care of spread, variable spread as well as payment based on a percent of the spread.
Just what do they indicate by "spread"? The spread is the difference between;
the cost the market manufacturer is prepared to pay you for acquiring the money (the bid cost), versus the rate at which he is prepared to offer you the money (the ask rate).
Expect you see the complying with quote on your screen:
Some brokers might additionally bill a really small payment of say 2/10's of one pip. He then passes the orders he receives from you as well as others on a big market maker with whom he or she has a great partnership. By doing this you can obtain a very limited spread that usually just larger investors can get access to.
When it comes to the broker that provides a variable spread, you could expect to see a spread that will (at times) be as low as 1.5 pips and at various other times as high as 5 pips – all depending upon the money set being traded and the level of market volatility at the time.
This stands for a spread of three pips, the distinction in between the bid price of 1.4831 and also the ask rate of 1.4834. You are taking care of a broker (market maker) that is supplying a fixed spread of 3 pips instead of a variable spread. With him, the difference will always be 3 pips, no matter market volatility.
Don't worry concerning all of this for now. Trade profitably for time first. When you have gone up the discovering curve further compared to you have until now, after that take another look at broker agent fees. With some performance history behind you, then reevaluate what are the acceptable fees you are prepared to pay.
So which is the very best choice? It does seem that the repaired spread could be the right option considering you would recognize just what your expenses will be. However, there are a couple of other issues you should consider.
Just what is the bottom line?
Each type of computation still indicates you pay a commission on your trading. there's no freebie. All brokers will certainly find a means to make cash from you some just how.
In the meantime you require find a broker you (logically) could deal with for a reasonable price. Keeping that account, get some record. Get your trading profitable. These are the most immediate points – as well as where your Forex Robotic is needed.
Also, understand that not all brokers are equal. That there are other aspects to think about when choosing the most advantageous trading account to go with.
Different Service Degrees from Various Brokers:
The connections are based upon the capitalization and also creditworthiness of each organization. Strong players get the very best rates and could determine prices to the weaker ones.
Due to the fact that it is connected to credit history agreements between each gamer, when it pertains to an online brokers, the broker's cost-effectiveness will rely on his or her relationship with financial institutions. As well as just how much quantity the broker performs with them.
Huge gamers have credit-worthiness advantages. The foreign exchange market is an over-the-counter market. There is no exchange in the middle to assure performance. This indicates that banks – the primary market makers – have partnerships with other financial institutions and cost collectors (the retail online brokers).
Typically, the higher-volume forex players are priced quote tighter spreads.
Not all brokers are able to make a market similarly.
If the broker has;
After a little broadening the spread to account for their profit, the dealer will certainly be able to pass on a much more affordable spread to you. Competitors that are not well exploited can not.
You ought to search for a broker that can offer "ensured liquidity" at appealing spreads. Liquidity implies that you can liquidate your placements right away. You want "at-the-money" executions every time you trade. Paying a "fixed pip spread" for this is good worth.
When it comes to a compensation broker, whether you need to pay a small compensation depends upon just what else the broker is offering.
* a solid connection with a line of financial institutions and also
* could aggregate, state, twelve banks' estimate, then the brokerage firm will certainly be able to pass the average "quote and also ask" (spread) financial savings on to its retail clients.
Selecting a Forex Broker: You must constantly take into consideration the overall plan when deciding on a broker. Some brokers may offer superb spreads but their platforms suck or don't talk to your foreign exchange robotic. The one constant is that you will certainly require your robotics, and so you must have a data feed that will certainly speak with them.
" Slippage" happens when your profession is executed away from the cost you were supplied. It includes a price that you do not want. So a reduced commission with slippage is a false economic climate. The true price of the transaction would be" slippage plus pip spread".
Intend a broker charges 2/10's of a pip (about $2.50 – $3 each 100,000 system profession) in exchange for accessibility to a remarkable proprietary software program system. Because instance it may deserve paying the little compensation for this additional service.
So take into consideration the following:
* Exactly how well exploited is the firm?
* The length of time has it been in business?
* Who takes care of the firm and just how much experience does this person have?
* Which and the number of banks does the company have connections with?
* Just how much volume does it negotiate monthly?
* Just what are its liquidity assurances in regards to order size?
* What is its margin policy?
* Exactly what is its rollover policy in case you want to hold your placements overnight?
* Does the firm travel through the favorable carry, if there is one?
* Does the firm include a spread to the rollover interest rates?
* What kind of platform does it provide?
* Does it have multiple order types, such as "order terminates order" or "order sends order"?
* Does it guarantee to perform your quit losses at the order cost?
* Does the firm have a dealing desk?
* What do you do if your web connection is lost and also you have an open position?
* Does the company provide all the back-end office functions, such as P&L, in real time?
Final thought:
See my web site for 40 independent testimonials as well as other helpful info concerning forex trading.
Ultimately, the least expensive method to trade is making a profit. If your earnings is large, after that you don't mind sharing a little of it with an extremely reliable market manufacturer who could offer the liquidity you have to trade well.
Check out the spreads on one of the most preferred currencies. Really frequently, they will be as low as 1.5 pips. If this holds true, a variable spread might work out to be more affordable compared to a repaired spread. Some brokers even provide you the selection of either a repaired spread or a variable one.
To obtain the best offers, choose a credible broker(s) that is/are well capitalized as well as have solid relationships with the large forex financial institutions.
If it looks also good to be true, it probably is. You may getting a great deal on the spread as well as you might be sacrificing various other benefits by doing so. Yet one thing is certain: as an investor you constantly pay the spread as well as your broker always makes the pip and spread.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Corporate News, Science
NASA has launched an investigation after cocaine was discovered at Florida's Kennedy Space Center, according to reports.
A NASA spokesman told reporters on Tuesday that 4.2 grams of "a white powdery substance" was found last Monday at the NASA facility and tested positive for cocaine.
"Law enforcement personnel field tested the substance, which indicated a positive test for cocaine," Renee Juhans, an executive officer with the office, told CNN. "The substance is now at an accredited crime lab for further testing." She wouldn't comment on where in the facility the drug was found.

Texting While Driving More Dangerous than Being Under Influence of Drugs, Alcohol
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cell Phones, Handhelds, Transportation
A study conducted by the Transport Research Laboratory in the UK has determined that text messaging while driving is more dangerous than being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The report found that those texting had a 35% decrease in reaction time. That's quite a bit higher than those who smoked the evil weed who were 21% slower and those juiced up who were 12% slower. The study also concluded that texters were more likely to wander out of their lanes and that their steering was 91% worse than those who drove without being distracted.

Instymeds Dispenses InstyDrugs
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Household, Misc. Tech, Science
It won't be long before pharmacists are replaced by InstyMeds, vending machines that can be placed in clinics, hospitals, and doctors offices. The current model holds 100 different drugs and 8 to 22 bottles of each drug. It labels and dispenses tablets, capsules, inhalers, sprays, creams and ointments, suspensions and syrups. Using PC writing software, the physician merely enters the patient's information. The patient then uses a touchscreen to enter name and date of birth, chooses a printed prescription or fills it there and inserts cash or credit card. Insurance companies are billed automatically for co-pays. Not only will this cut down on handwriting errors, it may cut back on pharmaceutical errors, as long as it is loaded properly.

A commemorative tablet was unveiled at Adpar Mill last week, to mark the birthplace of prominent painter John Elwyn Davies.
The idea of a plaque was hatched many years ago by Duncan Davies and the late Aynsleigh Davies, past headmaster of Ysgol Dyffryn Teifi, and was unveiled on July 24.
Carol Davies introduced Duncan who with the help of Carol and Wenna Bevan Jones had organised the celebration.
Duncan introduced Professor Robert Meyrick of UCW Aberystwyth, John Elwyn's biographer who then outlined his life and work. He introduced Gillian Davies, John Elwyn's widow who gave a short speech of appreciation and unveiled the plaque made by Ieuan Rees of Llandybie, watched by around 35 people, including some of his relations, neighbours and people who had collected his paintings over the years.
The whole project had been supported by friends of John Elwyn and the surplus will go to the Carmarthen School of Art. The fund will remain open for a time and anyone wishing to make a contribution should contact Duncan Davies, Cyncoed, New Road, Newcastle Emlyn, call 01239 710828.
The area is steeped in history, and is where the last man was put into the stocks in Cardiganshire. The last fatal duel in Wales happened near the spot in 1814, when John Beynon shot Thomas Heslop, 'a gentleman from the West Indies.' On the square at Adpar is also a tablet to the first printing press in Wales, established by Isaac Carter in 1718.

Big Show becomes champion… wwe fans finally get tired of no action and move on to some Total Nonstop Action!
this will be a trend
if wwe keep up not making stars to replace who they lose then i can see that happening.
the rock, SCSA, the undertaker, jericho, among others have only so much time left to be able to do in ring work imo.
some ppl pay too much attention to ratings.
especially for tv shows that are over 1 hour. most ppl watch tv for 1 hour past that they are likely to record what they want to watch and watch it at a convenient time for them.

We've known for a while now that Ubuntu is slowly making the transition to mobile devices, but Canonical founder Mark Shuttleworth has finally laid out the plan for Ubuntu, which is to have it as one OS from mobile to desktop by 2014...

Good if the mobile OS imitates/provides the desktop experience. Not the other way around like Windows 8.

Ubuntu is a failure with Unity interface...it will loose its market to Android very soon

Still, unity is mature than metro UI.....

I quite enjoy Unity. I prefer GNOME3 a bit more, but there are just more lenses and things to add on to Unity, so it gets the win for me.

But once he said that UI will be same across all ubuntu devices.....

It has a while to change things. I am sure that Unity will change all together, if it's still Unity by then.

I use Ubuntu for 7 years and Unity has been a joy so it's no surprise that it'll be making it's move to mobile devices.Linux has been around forever but everybody sleeps on it.
