Construction Halfway Point
By Danielle Schapaugh, Public Relations Coordinator
Construction is going well and the project is starting to move indoors. Windows will be installed soon, and the roof work is almost completed, just in time for the warmer weather and some wild storms. The expansion is on schedule to be completed in December and we hope to have the grand opening celebration in January.
Here are a few photos from a perspective the public doesn't usually get to see.
If you have any questions about the construction project, please contact us at email@example.com. We'll call this one "before."
What do roofers like less than heat? Rain!
This way! The new HVAC system was hoisted into place by crane. The roof was finished very quickly, once the rain stopped!

Documentary maker Saul Landau dies
Documentary filmmaker Saul Landau has died at the age of 77. The acclaimed moviemaker, best known for his films about Cuba, passed away at his home in California on Monday (09Sep13) after a battle with bladder cancer.
Landau made more than 40 films during his career and wrote a handful of books.
His documentaries included 1968 film Fidel, in which the director accompanied Cuban leader Fidel Castro on a week-long tour of the country, and 1980's Paul Jacobs and the Nuclear Gang, which focused on the fallout from 1950s U.S. atomic bomb testing in Nevada.

I have just installed Ubuntu 7.10. All seems well except i have a wireless card, and the driver is giving me trouble. I currently have an ethernet cord connected from the wireless router which is why the eth0 is showing connectivity. I tried disconnecting and restarting the network, but this seems to be a waste of time as the driver is not working properly to begin with.
It is a d-link Xtreme N DWA-522 wireless PCI card
I followed completely the instructions on
and have found myself stuck on 3.5
after entering "tail /var/log/messages" my response was no errors but then after entering "ifconfig" and "iwconfig" here was the response

eth0 no wireless extensions.
No wireless "wlan0" appears.
At this point the instructions assume that a wireless network will appear in the drop-down list from the Network Manager Icon on my desktop, but this is not the case. All that shows is the wired and modem.
I looked further into troubleshooting and found a help section suggesting to check to make sure the wireless card was "turned on"
You'll see below what I entered and what was the response.

This is where I am stuck. Don't know what to try from here as there was nothing in the forums I could find about how to actually turn on the card if it is not on. I do not think this is the problem however, but am not sure as I am fairly new to this.
Tried restarting the network "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
didn't bring the wlan0 out from hiding.
Any ideas?

BRUSSELS (Mar. 27)
A code of conduct for foreign and native Jews, in connection with the campaign for parliamentary elections on April 2, was issued today by the Foyer Israelite, organization headed by Dr. Max Gottschalk whose aim is to adopt Jewish immigrants to Belgian life.
Accompanied by an appeal to Belgian Jews to be mindful of their fatherland's interests in voting for "parties of order," the code: 1) Warns foreign Jews to abstain from actions that may be interpreted as interference in politics and not to attend public meetings even as observers; 2) demands that Yiddish placards be accompanied by French and Flemish texts; 3) recommends that foreign Jews do not speak foreign languages in streets, cafes and other public places.

By Aug 26, 2011-
AS Estonian Air, the country's national carrier, may invest as much as 400 million euros ($577 million) to enlarge its fleet to 15 aircraft, Eesti Paeevaleht reported, without saying where it got the information.
The airline wants to double the fleet in four years and increase the number of destinations to 30 cities from about 20, the newspaper said, citing Chief Executive Officer Tero Taskila. Taskila declined to confirm the size of the planned investment, the newspaper said.

Marianne Richmond has a gift - a gift of creating picture books that speak to children and adults alike! And her latest, Beautiful Blue Eyes, is no exception! I LOVE this tender story of what the parent sees in their child's blue eyes. It is a rhyming story, but it doesn't feel contrived, it flows smoothly and has such a sweet storyline. Richmond also illustrated her book and the illustrations are tender and endearing as well - the chalk blends to give the book a soft, cozy feel.
This book is just for parents and little ones to share - it is truly a gift!
(And I'm off to find Beautiful Brown Eyes for my two daughters!!)

Harold Reginald Williams
Nickname: "Sonny"
Title: The Love of Venus' Life
The youngest and most spoiled member of Team Venus is Harold, a five-year old gray Havanese. Venus found Harold at a pet store in New York City. With a heart that hadn't mended since she lost her last pet five years earlier, Venus was not looking for love. But Harold recognized something special in her. He planted so many kisses on Venus that she called Serena to ask for some love advice.
"I love him already!" said Serena. "Get him!"
Harold has plenty of four-legged company in the Williams family. Serena has two dogs, Jackie and Laura, and Venus's sister Isha has a Havanese as well. But Venus admits that she and Harold have a co-dependent relationship. She is very protective of him, and must know where he is at all times. The only place she doesn't take him is the gym or church. Harold has everything he wants. His only job is to go poo-poo outdoors, which he does most of the time.

Press Release: Statement by IMF Executive Directors at the Conclusion of their Visit to Turkmenistan
October 15, 2009Press Release No. 09/345
October 15, 2009
A mission of Executive Directors of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) comprising Ms. Meg Lundsager, Messrs. Age Bakker, Ambroise Fayolle, HE Jianxiong, Thomas Moser, and Klaus D. Stein issued the following statement on October 15, 2009 in Ashgabat at the conclusion of its visit to Turkmenistan:
"We are grateful for the opportunity to visit the country and thank the people of Turkmenistan. Our visit has provided us with the opportunity to learn more about the country. We met with heads and senior officials from the government and the central bank, as well as other stakeholders, including representatives of the private sector. This will contribute to our understanding in the IMF Executive Board, in assessing and discussing the challenges of the Turkmenistan and the IMF's policy advice.
"With its substantial reserves and no external debt, Turkmenistan has been little affected by the global crisis. The macroeconomic outlook for 2009 remains favorable. The external current account and the budget are expected to remain in surplus, allowing for the continued accumulation of international reserves and fiscal savings.
"Higher future revenue from gas exports are expected to further strengthen the country's fiscal and external positions. This positive outlook provides a great opportunity to deepen and accelerate the economic reforms, which were initiated in 2008 with the successful unification of the exchange rate.
"We welcome the recent steps taken to improve the functioning of foreign exchange system, management of public finance, and operation of the banking system. These measures together with the strong fiscal and external positions provide favorable conditions for deepening and accelerating reforms conducive to sustainable economic development.
"We support the IMF continuing excellent relationship with the Turkmen authorities."

SHOT Show 2012
Is anybody at Shot Show this year, or does anyone know what the new handgun releases for this year are. Or did everybody make releases just before Shot Show as a to garner interest for their booth?
I saw one video about Sig coming out with a small 9mm, called the P928. Looks like the P238, just a tad longer & little larger grips, back strap to front strap.
Kimber is coming out with a .380 competitor to the Sig P238 & Colt Mustang.
I saw a couple of other video intros, but didn't watch them.

Shashank Joshi: Yes. It's an urgent and worthy objective
France and Britain are intensifying their demands that Europe lifts its arms embargo and allow weapons to be sent to Syria. Paris and London hope to push Washington into stepping up from its present backseat role – giving tacit approval to Arab arms going in, and vetting rebel groups – to a more proactive position. And they want to put pressure on Russia to dilute its support for Assad.
It remains far from certain that they will succeed. If they do, it's inevitable that weapons will seep out of Syria's borders and away from the designated groups. Critics say that "militarising" the conflict will just prolong the war. But the war is spinning out of control anyway, and the risks of arms provision must be put in context.
The analogy with Afghanistan in the 1980s is misleading. When Saudi and Qatari weapons wound up in the hands of radical Islamists last year, the US did not simply shrug its shoulders as it had done 30 years earlier when Pakistani arms went to the most extreme of the mujahideen.
Rather, the US seems to have pressured Saudi Arabia into switching track, going through Jordan rather than just Turkey, and targeting more moderate and secular rebel factions. Videos from southern Syria vindicate this stance: the more pragmatic parts of the Free Syrian Army do seem to be the beneficiaries.
Indeed, part of the British and French calculation today is that it is better for their intelligence services to be picking the recipients of arms rather than leaving it to countries like Qatar, which were handing out guns like candy. Moreover, the risk that arms will "leak" must be balanced against the danger that, without outside support, moderate rebels will be eclipsed by the better-resourced extremists.
Arms will not by themselves tip the scales – that would require a much greater effort and more sensitive arms, such as shoulder-fired missiles, than Hollande or Cameron would stomach.
But this is not the point. Arms are intended to change the balance of forces within the rebel ranks. When one looks at the rapid rise of Jabhat al-Nusra, al-Qaida's front in Syria, and the mounting frustration of moderates, it is clear that this is an urgent and worthy objective.
Jonathan Steele: No. It would escalate the death toll on all sides
Lifting the embargo on arms to Syria's rebels is wrong in principle as well as misguided in its timing. The civil war is stalemated.
Although government forces regain territory in some places while the opposition moves forward in others, the basic military position is a strategic deadlock.
It is true that the government has supremacy in the air, and uses this ruthlessly, but it would require a huge delivery of anti-aircraft weaponry for the opposition to make a dent, especially as Russia could nullify the opposition's new capabilities by increasing its supplies. Meanwhile, the death toll on all sides would escalate. There is also no guarantee that the weapons would not fall into the hands of the anti-western jihadis who already play a major role.
The worst thing about adding western arms to those the rebels already get via Qatari and Saudi funding would be to increase the illusion of eventual victory. Why would the opposition negotiate if western cavalry, or at least arms supplies, are about to come over the hill?
Far better to widen the embargo and include Russia and Iran, while letting the UN mediator, Lakhdar Brahimi, work on getting a ceasefire.
Negotiations advance when both sides realise they cannot win.
A breakthrough came in January when Moaz al-Khatib, the leader of the Syrian National Coalition, dropped the call for Assad to resign before the opposition would talk. Assad also changed and said his government would talk to the opposition.
Khatib's courageous move met with resistance from colleagues. For the EU to lift its embargo would be a slap in Khatib's face, when the EU ought to help him to convince his hardliners that they need to compromise. Otherwise they are condemning Syria's civilians to yet more months of inconclusive, but catastrophic, civil war.

Clarification to Category Captains Report, March 7, 2005 issue
NEW YORK -- In our Category Captains report in our March 7 print publication, we misstated the results in the Other Tobacco Products category. While the information in the chart was correct, the accompanying text should have read: "Swisher and U.S. Smokeless Tobacco tied with 37 percent overall, with Swisher taking the lead in marketing and promotions effectiveness and operational efficiency, and USSTC leading in product innovation and category management. Convenience Store News regrets the error.
In the same report, information about our study methodology was mistakenly omitted. A total of 122 responses were received, representing 21,999 stores. The average respondent operates 180 stores.
Of the total respondents, 31 percent are single-store operators, 7 percent operate between two and three stores, 12 percent between two and 10 stores, 20 percent between 11 and 50 stores, 23 percent between 51 and 200 stores and 7 percent operate more than 201 stores.
It should also be noted that responses were not weighted based on chain size, which means that every individual vote cast carried equal weight, regardless of chain size.
As a result of several methodology changes made to this year's Category Captains report, most manufacturer total scores are significantly lower this year than in prior years.

STAR readers are getting behind the bid to help spread festive cheer to youngsters in St Helens who might not otherwise get a gift this Christmas.
Hattons Solicitors are joining forces for the third year running with St Helens Council's Early Intervention Service to appeal for donations of gifts for both children and teenagers, who may not receive gifts.
The gifts will be given out in the week before Christmas.
They will ensure gifts are targeted towards the most vulnerable families.
Senior partner Bruce Hatton said: "We were amazed by the success of the last few year's Christmas gift appeals, not only with our own staff donating but also the overwhelming generosity of the local community too. We are again supporting this worthwhile cause to try and make a difference, as far too many children in our local area do not have the happy home life we often take for granted."
Councillor Alison Bacon, Cabinet Member for Children and Young People's Services said: "It is very sad that while most people look forward to the festive season there are children in St Helens who have little or nothing to look forward to with the arrival of Santa very unlikely.
"This is why this appeal is so important to help families out at this time of year."
Hattons Solicitors have also teamed up with Café bocboc in Eccleston to offer one free drink when you drop off a donated toy for the Christmas Gift Appeal at the Café (visit www.hattonslaw.com for terms and conditions).
If you would like to get involved and give a child or teenager a gift this Christmas please follow these guidelines.
Gift Ideas
Children aged 0-3 years old: Rattles, Books, Mobiles, Cuddly toys, teething toys etc
Children aged 3-12 years old: toys, games, books, art sets, any other age appropriate gifts
Teenagers: Toiletries (male and female), cosmetics, books etc
Please make sure your gifts are NOT wrapped.
Gifts can be handed in Monday- Friday 9am-5pm at Hattons Solicitors reception: 3 Victoria Square, St Helens, WA10 1HQ

Tucked inside a spring practice update by Ken Gordon in today's Columbus Dispatch comes the revelation that Buckeye freshman quarterback Antonio Henton is known as "Willie" to his teammates. As in Willie Beamen, the character played by Jamie Foxx in Oliver Stone's NFL-inspired film Any Given Sunday. Lineman Alex Boone offered up this classic:
"Yeah, Willie Beamen, from Any Given Sunday. That kid's crazy, he can do anything he wants. He can run, he can throw, he's awesome."
Henton was supposed to draw comparisons to Troy Smith and with a testimonial and nickname as fresh as that, he's clearly on his way to becoming an 11W legend.

Power Plant Expected To Bring Jobs To Southwest Ohio
MIDDLETOWN, Ohio
A Florida based energy company says it plans to spend more than $500 million on a natural gas-fired power plant in southwest Ohio that could mean jobs for 400 people in the area.
NTE Energy said Tuesday that it plans to operate "one of the most efficient natural gas-fired power plants in the United States" in Middletown, between Dayton and Cincinnati, according to the Dayton Daily News.
Officials say permit applications have begun. The project is expected to begin construction in 2015 and go online 2018.
The company said the bulk of the 300 to 400 construction jobs are expected to be filled by the members of skilled trades unions. When it's finished, the plant is expected to add around 25 to 30 full-time jobs to the Middletown area.

Rex Jung on Neuroscience of Creativity
Can you actually see creativity in the brain? It turns out you can if you put a living, breathing human being inside a brain scan. Neuroscientist Rex Jung describes his innovative research on the science of creativity.
You can also listen to the EXTENDED interview, and read the extended transcript.
Counselling & Psychotherapy Training
I am currently working within a University as a lecturer with Psychotherapy students. I have an abundance of clinical experience and am quite new the institutional way or working, I am constantly wondering whether the academic criteria fully embraces the creativity needed for the nuances of therapeutic work which in the main focusses upon relational creativity in order to attach. Students are currently marked using an academic system measuring understanding and knowledge, relevance to learning outcomes, analysis and discussion and structure, writing style and referencing. I sometimes fear that 'out of the box' responses may be limited the marking system which encourages a academic intelligence.

From fiscal stability a decade ago to roiling debt crises and violent market downturns, just how did western economies lose their bearings? And is there a way out?
Some observers liken the course of events since the late 1990s to a Shakespearean tragedy, marred by excess, greed and hubris. The first act in this scenario would be housing bubbles across much of the western world, a product of a global gorging on debt at a time when the cost of borrowing was next to nil.
The drama began to unfold as credit costs tumbled in the early part of the last decade as U.S. and European central banks sought to spur economic growth in the wake of the 911 attacks and a shallow recession following the bursting of the dot.com bubble in 2000.
The period of exuberance gave rise to so-called NINJA loans to borrowers with no income, no job and no assets — a phenomenon that emerged in the wake of Democrat President Bill Clinton's push in the 1990s to relax the threshold for securing a mortgage.
Those loans, which drove up commissions and revenues for banks in the subprime lending market, were then taken up by Wall Street, which parceled off the debt to investors around the globe, often disguised as solid, blue-chip holdings.
Then, in 2007, with politicians including then-U.S. president George W. Bush in denial about mounting debts and an emerging housing bubble, the U.S. Federal Reserve began to hike interest rates. That in turn unleashed a wave of defaults by borrowers when their variable rate mortgages came due for reset.
In September 2008, brokerage Lehman Brothers with its heavy exposure to the toxic subprime mortgage market slid into insolvency, followed by insurer AIG.
The collapse sparked a global credit crisis as banks refused to lend to each other in the overnight market amid fears about the quality of assets on their competitors' books.
Stock markets crashed and more banks failed as the dodgy mortgage loans imploded, triggering the worst global economic downturn since the Great Depression.
World leaders in 2009 responded with a bailout of banks, insurers and the auto sector, pledging $5 trillion in spending to rescue the global economy. The effort succeeded to a point, although the ultimate impact was to pass on a huge parcel of private debt into the public arena.
War in Iraq and Afghanistan, a Medicare prescription drug subsidy program and two tranches of U.S. tax cuts wiped out a $250 billion 2000 surplus under Clinton when his administration was forecasting the surplus would increase by as much as $1 trillion over the next 10 years.
But when the financial crisis hit, the Bush deficit ballooned to $400 billion. In early 2009, U.S. President Barack Obama took over and ordered an $800 billion spending increase at the same time that U.S. gross domestic product growth took a dive and tax collections cratered.
The growth in spending coupled with a drop in revenue pushed the deficit to $1.4 trillion. The economy and tax collections improved modestly last year and the deficit shrank to $1.3 trillion annualized.
In Europe meanwhile, a credit-fueled real estate bubble led to a bailout of Greece in 2010 by the European Union, followed by bailouts of Ireland and Portugal to prevent debt defaults, along with moves to shore up Italy and Spain.
While the troubles are confined to the so-called peripheral nations of the EU, they have also led to a crisis in confidence across the EU, reflected in a widening of bond yield spreads and risk insurance on credit default swaps between these countries and other EU members. Many critics say the crisis should not have been allowed to spread, charging EU leaders with reacting too late and with too little
In May 2010, Europe's Finance Ministers approved a comprehensive rescue package worth almost a trillion dollars aimed at ensuring financial stability across Europe by creating the European Financial Stability Facility
But in May 2011, the crisis intensified, mostly over the refinancing of Greek public debts as concern about rising government deficits and debt levels across the globe together with a wave of downgrading of European government debt created alarm in financial markets.
The contagion in Europe is the first euro zone crisis since its creation in 1999, though many economists call it part and parcel of the woes that have enveloped the U.S., an offshoot of lax government oversight and easy money.
Add in a massive credit expansion in China yielding rising inflation, higher interest rates and new credit restrictions and the world is in store for what Queen's University associate finance professor Louis Gagnon calls a prolonged period of slow growth, declining markets and tightening credit.
But Craig Alexander, chief economist at TD Bank Group, said he believes the market reaction to Friday's downgrade of U.S. debt is overblown, calling the crisis one of confidence in the ability of the economy to grow, not in the U.S. ability to pay off debt.
He said what's needed to restore business and consumer confidence in an acutely fragile economic climate is a credible debt containment plan in Europe, and a clear sign the U.S. is getting its fiscal house in order.
Those are the key steps needed to engage business, which has shown a reluctance to invest and hire despite record amounts of cash on corporate balance sheets, he said. An uptick in business spending would in turn create jobs and boost consumer incomes along with tax revenues to spur U.S. growth.
An ancillary benefit would be to lift economies in Europe, where Gagnon said the risk of a debt defaults is the most pressing issue facing the global economy.

I've always heard of the best-selling Habanero Hot wings from Frontera that apparently make one sweat buckets because of the spiciness. Being a fan of spicy food, both Saucer and I were ready to take the challenge! It was made possible when we won some Groupsmore vouchers that entitled us to a basket of Habanero Hot Wings and Taquitos de Pollo. Without further ado, we made our way there during the weekend, to find the place quiet and peaceful.
Dining area of Frontera
The bar
Since we had 2 vouchers, we ordered for one basket of wings to be non-spicy (BBQ sauce) and the other to be extra spicy (inferno). The Basket of Habanero Hot Wings and Taquitos de Pollo arrived soon, smoking hot from the fried tortillas.
Basket of Habanero Hot Wings and Taquitos de Pollo
The BBQ Sauce wings were tasty, tender and juicy. Almost too flavourful to be eaten on its own, it had a nice shiny glaze on the outside.
BBQ wings
Taquitos de Pollo, which are fried corn tortillas filled with shredded chicken, were served with salsa and sour cream. Give it a good dip in those sauces and sink your teeth into the munchy goodness of the tortilla. It was an extremely delightful snack! The shredded chicken inside was moist and flavourful, making it almost an irresistible and addictive bite. But bear in mind though, it's quite filling! I had 2 of these and I was half full. 😛
Taquitos de Pollo with sour cream
The attention of the day though, was the Inferno Hot wings. We were all trying to procrastinate eating them for fear of the effect it might have on us! *LOL* Saucer started with the first piece, and he said "It's not that bad" after his first bite. After about 20 seconds though, the first beads of sweat started to develop on his forehead. I looked at him curiously, "Are you ok?" and he said, the spiciness was starting to kick in! And that's when he started sweating buckets, as you can see from the photo below! 😀
Inferno Hot wings
True enough, when I ate it, the effect of the spiciness would only be felt after about 20 seconds, and when it did, every bite after that would feel like a burning sensation to the lips and tongue. I have a slightly higher tolerance to spiciness than Saucer, so I didn't sweat that much but it was indeed spicy and hot! You have to try it for yourself to know how it feels like! 🙂
Spicy and sweaty!
As for our mains, we had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich which came with a reasonably huge size of grilled chicken, topped with cheese, onions, tomatoes and lettuce in between the burger bread. I have mentioned time and again that I'm no fan of chicken breast, but Frontera has a way of making even chicken breast taste good. The outer layer of the chicken was grilled until golden brown, while the interior was juicy and tender. One of the better chicken sandwiches around, and healthy too!
Melted cheese is love
Grilled BBQ Chicken Sandwich (RM17.95)
Last but not least, a serving of Sizzling Fajita Platter with Chicken. Arrived sizzling hot and smoky, the aroma was unmistakable and appetizing. I always thought the addition of capsicums on sizzling dishes gave it a very nice and pleasant smell. A serving of fajitas came with 3 slices of corn tortilla, shredded cheese, salsa and sour cream.
Sizzling Fajita Platter – Chicken (RM31.95)
Smoking hot!
Shredded cheese, Pico de Gallo, sour cream and home made tortilla
How we prepared the fajita – Spread the sour cream on the tortilla slice, add the shredded cheese on top, followed by chicken slices and capsicum. Finally, a sprinkle of the salsa before giving it a good and hard wrap! Dig in! It's very tasty and juicy. One of the better fajitas around indeed. We vow to return for the Beef fajita next time! 🙂
This is how we do it 🙂
It was overall a very enjoyable lunch, what with the spicy and sweating experience. I also like the area being more quiet during weekends, a place that we can sit back and relax to while away the Saturday afternoon. 😉

World-first research by Sydney doctors has found that premature babies have much lower levels of a natural protein that protects lungs from inflammation.
Doctors at Sydney's Royal Hospital for Women have monitored 165 newborns over the past two years to compare the levels of Clara cell secretory protein in premature and full-term babies.
The hospital's director of newborn care, Dr Kei Lui, said the research proved that the amount of protein in full-term babies was 20 times higher when compared with premature babies born at 24 weeks.
Dr Lui said scientists at the hospital's laboratory were examining how the protein helped babies.
"We know full-term babies tend to recover much quicker [from] any form of lung inflammation and premature babies tend not to," he said.
Clara cell secretory protein had anti-inflammatory agents and Dr Lui said babies produced a "surge" of the protein after birth.
"We need to define the role of it in the newborn lung and then we need to do much more to see whether it is beneficial," Dr Lui said.
Many premature babies suffer from lung inflammation and require extra oxygen and a mechanical ventilator to breathe.
Premature babies have fragile lungs and when injured, the tissue inside the lungs becomes inflamed.
About 230 seriously ill premature babies are treated at the Royal Hospital for Women each year.
Declan Stamp is one of those babies. Born 15 weeks premature, he needs a ventilator to help him breathe.
The tiny boy has been included in the Clara cell secretory protein study.
His mother, Tayla, of Singleton, said she hoped Declan soon would be transferred closer to home, to John Hunter Hospital at Newcastle.

Many things in life have a determined natural order. We wake-up every morning to live life, go to work, then go to sleep again. The moon and stars cycle across the sky in endless seasonal beauty. Even The Lion King acknowledged the "circle of life". Business however, is no stranger to its own natural order. Corporate leaders and industry analysts are always trying to evolve their strategies and business tactics to reduce cost and maximize profits. It is the natural evolution of business to try and cut out the proverbial middle man, making it cheaper and easier to give a service or product to a customer. As video games have grown from a lowly hobby to a multi-billion dollar industry, the wiles of modern business have not eluded them. Once a common sight, the arcades of the 80's and 90's have all but vanished, turned obsolete by affordable and powerful home consoles.
Brick and mortar stores are going the way of the Dodo as well. Before a staple of all electronic goods, physical stores are becoming less and less appealing to consumers. Trumped by the simplicity and cost effectiveness of digital distribution and online retailers, their place in a new world of commerce is waning. Even publishers of massive titles are facing a dire fate. The ability of self-publishing and penetration of marketplaces such as the iOS Marketplace, XBLA, PSN, and Steam, have many developers considering other options besides showing their game off to a publisher and hoping for a wealthy suitor. Could we be seeing the inklings of a future where publishers are no more? Could the space where Gamestop sits in the mall be left empty? Could we be facing the death of a video game salesman?
Brooding and verbalization of ill will aside, the scene of the industry is changing. No doubt about it. Thus, many companies are trying to figure out what kind of strategies they are going to use in the coming years. As a way to combat the loss of sales due to used games, things like online passes, day-one DLC, and a few other intruding measures are in place to ensure they get some crumb of the pie after the retailer gets their cash. But is this the best way to go about doing business? Obviously developers and publishers can cope with these circumstances, but what about the other partners in the video game industry?
Renters of video games that purchase hundreds upon thousands of copies such as Game Fly and even smaller ventures like Redbox, are not able to give their customers the full game they paid for. Gamers that rented games such as Battlefield 3, Mass Effect 3, Mortal Kombat, Batman: Arkham City, and many more, are going to have to pay $10 or more to access the full content of the game on top of the rental cost or a subscription to a rental service. Could publishers strike deals with these outlets to give their customers access to this content? Hopefully, but the whole enchilada hinges on the profitability of the matter. If deemed unprofitable, gamers might abandon rental services and give way to the preferred method of simply buying the games themselves.
In an odd love/hate relationship with Gamestop, publishers are both condemning and condoning the sale of used games. Developers don't receive any profit from the selling of used games and thus are upset with the seemingly endless amount of revenue that could be potentially earned, and as a reaction to this the previously mentioned passes and DLC have been implemented. While they have every right to do this (it is their product after all) the true origin of the problem is rarely addressed, a problem named Gamestop. Those very developers who are extremely verbal about the evils of used game sales have promotion after promotion encouraging consumers to go to Gamestop, buy their game, and, in a way, feed the beast.
Although it is good that these promotions and retailer specific bonuses create sales for the developers, this is the same outlet that is causing them economic strain. A survey from 2008 stated that 26,000,000 gamer's trade-in used games, and out of that number only 16,000,000 take that credit and buy new games only. While the latter statistic is a good sign, this means that potentially 10,000,000 gamers that trade-in used games are using their credit to re-invest in the used game market, giving no funds to the deserving developers and publishers that are creating the content being sold.
With 25% of all video game sales coming from Gamestop, publishers and Gamestop have formed a symbiotic albeit abusive relationship. But instead of grinning and bearing through financial loss after financial loss, could developers and publishers be looking for a healthier alternative?
Self-Publishing and digital alternatives are the wave of the future, no doubt about it. EA has Origin, Valve has Steam, Ubisoft has Uplay, Sony has the PSN, Microsoft has Xbox Live, and many other major publishers have their own distribution platforms. In February 2011 Forbes reported that Steam, a PC only video-game distribution platform, has made tremendous growth in the last couple of years. The article stated, "Valve announced last October (of 2010) that it was on track for its biggest year ever, with 200% year-over-year growth. (Gabe) Newell says that, per employee, Valve is more profitable than Google and Apple." Even though these stats are dated (As a private company, Valve rarely shares financial information) they certainly are amazing.
Digital distribution is the best, cheapest, easiest way to get a product to a consumer. Obviously because it removes many of the problems associated with physical merchandise going full digital is a huge step in companies remaining solvent. But there are some problems with this model. Not necessarily with the model itself, but the pipeline used to deliver services and products to a consumer. The Internet in all its meme-filled glory, isn't the most perfect thing for getting high data applications and products to people at this time in history.
Currently there isn't a universal standard of speed and bandwidth, which means an inconsistent experience for downloading or streaming games. Also you've got to factor-in that cable companies are limiting the time we spend on the internet through data-caps. So to a person that has a cap on how much data they can use, that 25GB+ game that Id or D.I.C.E just released may not look so good on their 120GB monthly limit. Looking at the Midwest or rural areas, the speed to efficiently download and play a game online just simply isn't there, or the lines aren't running to the houses.
Obviously there is still a market for physical media, but for gamers, who seem to always be on the bleeding edge of technology, have moved on to greener digital pastures. We love our games in whatever way they come to us, whether it's a disc or a download, a massive RPG on our consoles or a bite-sized adventure on our phones. There are many kinks to be ironed out in the field of digital commerce, but for every stumble and triumph we will be here to support it, even if it causes the inevitable death of a Video-Game Salesman.

NONE of the six players who failed illicit drugs tests last year tested positive to cannabis, a result the AFL described as remarkable.
The league was forced to defend a reduction in the number of tests carried out as all six players who tested positive were first strikes in the three-strikes-and-out policy under the illicit drugs-outside-of-competition code.
Although AFL medical director Peter Harcourt said ''three or four'' footballers were still playing with two strikes, he said the policy continued to be a successful deterrent.
''The pool of players that have got a detection is shrinking every year and the number with two detections is shrinking each year as well. It's only a few players,'' Harcourt said.
He said in most cases players had taken drugs as a result of poor decision-making during a night out when alcohol and illicit drugs had been freely available.
It was the first year since 2006 that no player tested positively for cannabis, with all positive tests being for stimulants, which include cocaine, ecstasy and amphetamines - any drug that speeds up the nervous system.
League operations manager Adrian Anderson said he was surprised by the result, considering 30 per cent of men aged 20 to 30 try marijuana and other illicit drugs.
''It is an outstanding and incredible result when you compare it with what's happening in the wider community,'' Anderson said. ''We've put this in place to try and be a support network and to intervene and reduce the use of illicit drugs.''
There were also six positives to illicit drugs in 2010, although the number of tests dropped last year, from 1654 in 2010 to 1489.
Anderson and Harcourt defended the reduction in tests. ''There was no real intent in reducing the numbers, it just so happened that from a logistical perspective we ran a shorter number because we had an aggressive strategy to do more weekend [testing],'' Harcourt said.
Anderson was pleased testing had ''stabilised'' at six positives, although he admitted he would have preferred to have seen a continued fall. ''When you bear in mind that 30 per cent of blokes aged 20-to-30 in the community are trying illicit drugs, it's naive to think that no player will.''
Under the policy, players are named publicly only if they test positive three times in an out-of-competition scenario. Those who test positive for the first or second times are afforded counselling and advice by their club doctors and external drug experts. Any players who test positive three times to illicit drugs in out-of-competition testing can be suspended for up to 18 matches.
In 2010, Hawthorn's Travis Tuck became the first player to be suspended under thethree strikes policy. He was banned for 12 matches and fined $5000 and has since been delisted and is now playing in the VFL for Werribee.

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) performs many functions on your vehicle. The module accepts information from various sensors and computes the required fuel flow rate necessary to maintain the correct amount of air/fuel ratio throughout the entire engine operational range and controls the shifting of the transmission.
Based on the information that is received and programmed into the ECM's memory, the ECM generates output signals to control relays, actuators and solenoids. The module automatically senses and compensates for any changes in altitude when driving your vehicle.
Removal & Installation
- Using a scan tool, retrieve the percentage of remaining engine oil. Record the remaining engine oil life.
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the wheelhouse filler panel.
- Disconnect the engine wiring harness electrical connectors as shown (1) from the ECM.
- Remove the ECM bolts (2).
- Remove the ECM.
- Installation is the reverse of removal.
Program the ECM.
Service of the Electronic Control Module (ECM) should consist of either replacement of the ECM or programming of the Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM). If the diagnostic procedures call for the PCM to be replaced, the replacement ECM should be checked to ensure that the correct part is being used. If the correct part is being used, remove the faulty ECM and install the new service ECM

More blood is splattered in this trailer as a knight fights to stop the deadly plague from killing people in his country.
A new sneak peek to "Black Death" has been provided in form of a red band trailer which is debuted by Hulu. Still highlighting the apocalyptic situation in Medieval England, the video shares more gory scenes as a knight and a monk's journey to hunt down a necromancer, who can bring the dead back to life, involves some bloody battles.
Torn between his love of God and the love of a young woman, the young monk named Osmund discovers the necromancer, a mysterious beauty called Langiva. After Langiva reveals her Satanic identity and offers Osmund his heart's desire, the horror of his real journey begins.
Sean Bean portrays fearsome knight Ulric, while Eddie Redmayne takes the role of Osmund. The British film, filled with fear and superstition, is directed by Christopher Smith. It will be dropped in limited U.S. cinemas on March 11, 2011.

Will renewing rivalry with Celtics help Sixers get noticed in Philadelphia?
Philadelphia has many passionate sports fans, and lately the 76ers make the list after the Eagles, the Phillies and the Flyers. But with the Sixers winning last night to advance to the 2nd round of the NBA playoffs, they're starting a new chapter in their storied rivalry with the Celtics that once featured Larry Bird and Dr. J -- Julius Irving.
Kevin Owens watched the game at home in Cherry Hill. And he said he tried to keep it down - his wife is pregnant.
"I was standing up for most of the fourth quarter and just pacing back and forth," said Owens. "I was trying to get into a position that I would break the least amount of things and cause the least amount of noise. But when he made the second free throw there was definitely a yell."
Owens said after recent loses by other sports teams, Philadelphia needed the Sixers to win.
"When you look at the Flyers it's just so depressing when they lose," said Owens. "The Sixers it's like you're gambling with house money. I mean you're not expecting anything."
But to get real attention, they need to do more, said Michael Levin, the co-editor of the Sixers blog LibertyBallers.com.
"They need to have a superstar and actually contend for a title for more than one year, to make people care," said Levin.
Longtime fan Brian Ward said the victory almost makes up for years of Sixers heartbreak.
"I remember watching them on TV during the championship year and I think the first game I ever went to was during Charles Barkley's rookie year and the end of Dr. J's career and I was just completely hooked," said Ward.
So how does he feel about the Sixers' next foe: the Celtics?
"I think in all of sports the Celtics are the team that I hate the most," said Ward. "It's a rivalry that's kind of been dormant. Hopefully this is going to be where the mantle for the Atlantic Division is passed from Boston back to Philadelphia."
Ward said he'll consider changing the name of his blog: "Depressed Fan" -- when the Sixers win a title.

Honey Quartet
Designed for the Fingerless Gloves Fanatics Group for the September Mystery KAL. The pattern has been updated and combined into one complete pattern as opposed to three separate clues.
The versatile design has a little bit of easy cables, and some more challenging lace work. There are four possible variations, firstly you will get to choose between making a wrist or mid-arm length glove. Then at the end you will also be able to choose between completely fingerless and half finger gloves.
This glove is fitted and has some negative ease (~1") to allow the lace to open up when worn. Additional sizes can be achieved by changing needle sizes.
Advice on yarn choice: Using a semi or completely solid yarn will let the stitch pattern do all the talking while a variegated yarn will let the stitch pattern show off the colours. I don't think a self striping or variegated yarn with long colour repeats would work very well with this pattern.
To join in the fun please visit the thread at the Fingerless Glove Fanatics group here.

Hello I'm Chris. Thanks for visiting Just Answer.
I am sorry you have had to wait so long for the first contact. Sometimes this happens when the question you ask is not detailed enough or its just hard to address online. Many have viewed your post, but have decided to pass. I will do my best to help you. I have access to many repair sites, so at the least I can provide something to address at least part of your concern if it is not something I can address from memory and experience. I mainly work in the last half of the day 2pm-midnight cst. , so that is when I do all of my responding. Once you get an answer, you will be prompted to rate me. You are rating my help, not the website, or answer. If you feel the need to rate negative, please save the rating so I can try again or find someone whom may be able to help better. Thanks for using our site, we will do all we can to earn your business, again sorry we did not get to you sooner. X Do you still need help?X Is there any more information you can add?X At minimum what do you need to know if I can not address all of your concern? Chris>>
I don't know what more I can tell you. I start the car. It starts up like any other healthy car does. I put it in drive and it does not move at all, same with reverse. I put it back in drive and give it a little gas and the speedometer stay at zero. The rpm's move, just not the speedometer.
I shut off the car, put the shift into neutral, got out of the car and pushed it and it moved. got back in the car started it up and it would not go forward in drive. Tried 1,2,3 and would not move forward. Battery fine. Again, I am going to ask; is this caused by a faulty vehivle speed sensor?
I have made a short video of my car for you to see the problem easier. The url is a link to online file folder. The file is 10mb. Hope this helps
You need to have the transaxle line pressure checked to see if its low. Low would mean the pump is damaged or the pump shaft has stripped or broken. If line pressure is good then you have a input shaft broken or clutch pressure seals faulty. This trans can only be fixed with an overhaul.
What kind of PUMP?
Is an over haul expensive?
Not the engine speed sensor?
By the way yesterday, I noticed a puddle next to my right tire....anti-freeze? Any relationship to the current problem?
There is a hydraulic fluid pump inside the transaxle that moves the fluid, you must have pressure or nothing in the trans will work. An overhaul will range from 1400-2200$ depending on what all is needed once out and apart. No sensors will result in no engagement. The antifreeze leak is a separate concern.
I rated you this morning as the best feedback.
Can there be any other reason for my problem,?
would a bad speed sensor stop the car from going forward?
Any other scenarios.
If it is what you say it is, I will be burying my 14 year old car.
All electrical items on a trans can be disabled and the trans will still move forward and reverse, it will just not shift gears. I am sure its internal.

Boy starts nursery in January, this is a whole new world for both of us. I'm not all that keen on school, it un-nerves me somewhat. I have tried, I even helped at a teaching session in a school with the museum's education team once. I quite like kids and I think I would make a reasonable primary school teacher. However, the fabric of school un-nerves me. I remember standing outside the headmasters office and writing lines and being picked on and top trumps and school dinners and well, probably more about it all than I can remember from what happened to me last week. It all came flooding back to me as I sat in the school hall listening to, frankly drivel about where I could buy the school uniform and why I shouldn't be late.
It didn't go well, I tried to get into the door, honest I really did! How was I to know that it opens in the opposite direction to all other normal doors? Big Fail. I think the office staff had my card marked from that moment. I made my way to the hall and they had me down as not attending. Clearly they read minds there. This caused a massive kerfuffles and need for photocopying whilst I stood there like a lemon. Gucci and Boden clad mothers swirling past with the efficiency of Germany. It was not a good look and none of the other mothers could bring themselves to talk to me, one even moved when I sat down next to her. Great. I am not a tramp, I am a working mum who happened to not notice the large cereal stain down her jumper, the snot on her shoulder and the trail of mud behind her.
Thus after being harangued by the headmistress as apparently their photocopying was actually existent on the table already and I clearly couldn't read, I decided to ask a question. It didn't go well, I was told that it would be more appropriate to answer my question in private at the end. Some of us have to go to work. Some of us were actually bunking off work to go there. Can you truant from work? I was in a rush, I didn't have all day.
My card is marked…sigh.
Anyway, the image is of me when I was at primary school. It's one of my favourite pictures of this period of my childhood. I did, on the whole, love being primary school age I hope this new phase of Boys childhood will be as happy, despite the efforts of his mother!

A Republican pollster said Monday that a new survey shows more GOP support nationally for the Common Core academic standards than generally thought.
"Based on the relentless drumbeat of opposition coming from the political right, a Republican candidate could be forgiven for assuming conservatives don't support the Common Core State Standards," pollster John McLaughlin said in a prepared statement.
"But in fact the view of Common Core among Republicans isn't nearly as clear-cut as many conservative activists think," he said.
"Ordinary Republican primary voters, which far outnumber the grass-root activists, are generally very supportive of the standards," McLaughlin said.
The findings show that more than four in 10 GOP primary voters do not know what Common Core is.
Among those who do, support for the academic goals is 33 percent while 41 percent oppose them.
McLaughlin said the margin shows the issue is not as polarizing as some activists believe.
The poll also found that Republican primary voters are more likely to back a candidate who backs the standards, 48 percent, than one who links them to the Obama administration, 36 percent.
The national online poll was conducted April 7-13 of 1,000 likely general election voters, with an oversampling of 500 GOP primary voters from April 14-17.
The larger sampling results have a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percent, and the primary voters check has a 4.4 percent margin of error.
Common Core is one of the key issues in the final month of the 2014 Legislature.
The standards, which take full effect for the 2014-15 school year, represent new rigor in reading, writing and math and have been adopted by 43 states.
Gov. Bobby Jindal has said he would consider unilaterally scrapping the tests that go with Common Core and earlier backed a bill that would replace Common Core with new academic goals written by state educators and others.

Attachment And Neglect - Instrumental Role Experiences For Child
The authentic and hidden intention of the essay is to offer some useful "keys" for a theoretical approach to the phenomenon of attachment, cues which invite to a dynamical, volatile and transdisciplinar reading exercise. The informational axis has three key elements: attachment, security and negligence. The approach is mixed, providing a complex "vision": educational sciences, social work, psychology and psychiatry. The central idea of the article is: attachment is both a primary emotional bond between the child and parent-mother, but above all, is an existential instrumentation for the quality of any future relationship with himself and with others. The consequences of the attachment's management is a prerequisite not only for the child's sense of security as well as for the quality of superego's and for world and his own life conception. Investigative tool is the the hermeneutical discourse, whose main role is to decrypt the possible options and alternatives to the meaning of messages subject to reflection. The theoretical study, but argued with statistics, activates the attachment and neglect understanding versions, providing openings for practitioners in children's behaviors management.

Woman dies after wreck on North Side
Updated 2:26 pm, Tuesday, August 6, 2013
A 22-year-old woman died Monday after she crashed into multiple objects including a tree and power line pole, according to an email from a San Antonio Police Department spokesman.
The victim has been identified as Kandace Lynn Morris, according to the email.
The incident occurred around 9:50 p.m., in the 800 block of W. Bitters Road on the city's North Side. Morris was driving westbound on the road, and a witness told police that Morris appeared to be speeding.
After she collided with the right-hand curb of the road, she subsequently crashed into a tree. She then hit a stone fence, a power line pole and a "stone framed business sign", respectively, according to the email.
News Channel
Morris was pronounced dead at 10:05 p.m. Monday. Her relatives have been notified.
According to an email from a San Antonio Police Department spokeswoman, police have previously received calls for about two other major traffic accidents within that block this year.

Pain Management
Crushed Vertebrae
My daughter was in a car accident and got ejected from her jeep.she crushed the 11th vertebrae and L-1.this happened in October 06.in the hospital they took x-rays and discovered that the 11th vertebrae was crushed.do to a lots of lower back pain we went back and they found the L-1 was also crushed.this was last month,also her spine is now almost like an S and they say she has a small amount of arthritis.her fingers in the right hand tingle and she is getting headaches that affect her right eye.is there any thing what can be done?and does 2 crushed vertebrae can make her spine and neck crooked?she had no problems like this before her accident.and where is the arthritis coming from?she just turned 21.thanks for your answer.
A motor vehicle accident (MVA) can result in structural damage to the spine as evidenced in your daughter's case with fractures in 2 of her vertebrae (T11 and L1). A vertebral compression fracture usually heals in a matter of 3 months. Having persistent pain may be related to other structural changes. If the vertebral collapse was severe with the fractures, it may explain the scoliosis (S shaped spine).
A frequently reported entity with MVA (especially rear ending) is cervical (neck) whiplash injury. Patients with cervical whiplash often complain from neck pain and headache that may radiate to the area behind the eye.
Your daughter needs to follow up with a pain medicine specialist and possibly with a spine surgeon for more diagnostic workup such as an MRI of the lumbar spine and diagnostic neck injections. A rheumatologist can perform the appropriate work up to rule in or out arthritis.

|It is already 10 years since the European High Temperature Reactor (HTR) Technology Network (HTR-TN) launched a programme for development of HTR Technology, which expanded so far through 3 successive Euratom Framework Programmes. Many projects have been performed in line with the Network strategy that defined early, beyond mere electricity generation, near-term co-generation of heat and power (CHP) as the main specific contribution of HTR to the growing needs of European industry for this type of energy supply. HTR can fulfil such a versatile mission due to the unique potential brought by its high operating temperature and by its unique flexibility obtained from its large thermal inertia and its low power compared to other nuclear systems. HTR-TN strategy has been recently integrated in the global strategy proposed by SNETP in its "Strategic Research Agenda" as one of the 3 "pillars" of future European nuclear R&D. It is also in line with the orientations and the timing of the "Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan)" for the development of CO2-lean energy technologies and thus strengthens the nuclear option in a future European energy mix. The recently created SNETP working group on nuclear cogeneration with strong end-user participation will work out a Nuclear Cogeneration Industrial Initiative (NC2I) aiming at demonstration of this technology consistently with the SET-Plan agenda for curbing CO2 emissions.

Who Wears Short Shorts? Bill Clinton!
I'm kind of obsessed with this embarrassing photo of Bill Clinton and Al Gore from the '90s. I happen to think the former president was, is, and always will be a stone cold fox. I refuse to be ashamed! Nothing is sexier than a man with brains, clout, and a history of infidelity. Am I right, ladies? Oh … is that Al Gore's …. nevermind. [Buzzfeed]

Small companies already struggling to reach analysts' radar screens are concerned that a shortened profit reporting season will reduce even further their chances of arousing significant institutional interest.
With the period for reporting interim and full year profits reduced from 2 months to two months, companies will have until the end of next month rather than mid-March to produce the first half figures.
Small company analysts expect most of the stocks they cover to report within the final two weeks of the shortened season and readily acknowledge it will be much more difficult to fit every results briefing into their already busy schedule.
"It may prove more of an issue for those of us covering small-caps, given the average analyst covers between 15 and 20 stocks," said Chris Sleep, head of the small-cap team at ABN Amro.
Analysts said that under the previous regime of 75 days it was possible to drop in to the results briefing of a company that was not officially covered, to see if any previously missed investment opportunities had revealed themselves in the latest set of earnings numbers. With the new timeframe, such spontaneity looked unlikely.
"When the Australian Stock Exchange shortened the reporting timetable, it may not have realised the difficulty that small-cap companies have in gaining the attention of the market and the extra pressure the change will create," said Anthony Tregonning of public relations firm FCR. "Results announcements . . . will be swamped by those of the large and mid-sized companies."
One small-cap analyst said he did not mind the new regime. "It would be better if . . . the companies spread the results evenly throughout the season. Realistically, though, the smaller companies are going to cram themselves into the final two weeks."
Another analyst said that the daily routine of looking at the results of three or four small companies a day could suddenly jump to six or seven.
He said the shortened reporting period was good for analysts looking to add more value than just filing through the standard earnings numbers.
