Does anybody know if the above solution works on the Palm TX and Palm T5?
I also found the above solution works for:
Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Island 1&2, Sam and Max Hit the Road.
There appears to be bug in Monkey Island 2 during the Bones song. Issue: it never stops
There appears to be bug in Conroy house when he starts to sing: crashes my LD
Changes to the above instructions (Personal Preference):
Deleted the skin.pdb from internal Memory
Moved the scummVM-Frontend.prc out of the internal memory and onto the LD.
It just simplifies the process of getting to the ScummVM 0.11.0svn GUI.
Added the following line into the scummvm.ini:
I stuck it inbetween the following lines under the [scummvm] section
Note this will change adlib quality, the default is low.
Finally, as the palm is rubbish at releasing cached memory my LD sometimes crashes when opening the Scummvm GUI,
which has the effect of deleting the scummvm.ini file.
So I take a local backup copy of the file just in case.
Hope this help and hope I'm not DPM someone.

- Remotely-monitored video surveillance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Hand-scanning authorization sensors using biometric recognition for clearance.
- Server racks reinforced against seismic anomalies and scientifically exact bracing that adjoins our server racks and the caging environment to a below-floor channel.

This week in Island history
The news of 10 and 15 years ago is from the Jamestown Press. The news of 100 years ago from the Newport Daily News came from the collection of the Newport Historical Society.
100 years ago From the Newport Daily News, August 14, 1907
The height of the season has been reached and perhaps never before have so many of the cottages been occupied at one time during the summer months. The numbers at the hotels, however, are not up to expectations.
From the Newport Daily News, August 17, 1907
Several young men of the summer visitors gave a cotillion in the dance hall of the Gardner House last evening. The hall was prettily decorated for the occasion.
There was a good sized gathering to listen to the band concert on the boardwalk at Shoreby Hill last evening, but those without thick clothes were kept on the move as the north wind made standing still long too cool for comfort.
75 years ago
From the Newport Daily News, August 12, 1932
(At the Town Council meeting it was voted) that the salary of the life guard at Mackerel Cove beach be increased $2 per week for extra duty as alley boy; owing to the lack of business at the west counter, it was voted that the salary of the clerk at said counter be reduced to $10 per week; and that there will be no discounts on any bath houses rented before July 15. It was voted not to pursue any additional chairs or a stretcher for the beach this season.
From the Newport Daily News, August 16, 1932
George B. Heilner was high hook Monday at Mackerel Cove beach, when he captured two beautiful silvery fish having long streamers of a purplish color. They are about the size of a silver dollar, and swim on edge, being evidently natives of tropical waters, and far from their natural habitat.
50 years ago
From the Newport Daily News, August 12, 1957
A full program of events to celebrate Jamestown's 300th anniversary began Saturday and will continue through this week. Formal opening exercises were held Saturday morning in the recreation hall, followed by a dance in the evening. Special observances marked services in all the churches yesterday with drilling by four corps in competition in the afternoon. A buffet luncheon at the old windmill on North Road at noon, and an outdoor concert at the Jamestown Elementary school at night are today's features.
From the Newport Daily News, August 13, 1957
The Jamestown Town Council last night directed the town solicitor … to prepare an ordinance making it unlawful for an open well, cistern, or other such open hazard to be maintained.
From the Newport Daily News, August 15, 1957
Jamestown's tercentenary celebration, blessed with good weather yesterday for its parade and other features, went ahead in rainy weather today, Governor's Day, with all the scheduled events being held. … Yesterday was Patriot's Day in Jamestown. … More than 4,000 persons thronged the streets to view the colorful parade of eight divisions. It was the largest crowd ever to come to the island at one time.
From the Newport Daily News, August 19, 1957
Jamestown's tercentenary celebration the past eight days was so successful, there are thoughts of a repeat celebration, in part, next year. … Besides the parade, the final day's observance included a water sports show, fireworks, a tercentenary ball, and many private cocktail parties.
25 years ago From the Newport Daily News, August 16, 1982
A huge crowd turned out Saturday morning to watch the 5th annual Fools Rules Regatta at Town Beach at East Ferry. There were 35 entries in the event sponsored by the Jamestown Taxpayers Association.
15 years ago From the Jamestown Press, August 14, 1992
The Town Council voted 4-0 Tuesday night to disband the Senior Center Study Commission, which after five years has been unable to get a building plan for the project off the ground or even located a site.
The state Department of Transportation has been issued a state permit to alter wetlands that it needs to build the cross-island highway.
10 years ago From the Jamestown Press, August 14, 1997
What may be the first North American record for a European bird species was sited this week on Conanicut Island by Christine Ariel and B.J. Whitehouse in their yard and verified by noted Jamestown birders Chris and Candy Powell. The rare bird was a Great Tit, a song bird that looks like a chickadee, but a little larger, with a bright yellow breast, black rib and black stripe running down the middle of the breast.
(photo caption) Kayakers discuss the race around Jamestown after paddling some 15 miles Saturday. The conditions were nearly perfect for the third annual Jamestown Island Paddle. The event, which raised $1,610 for the Jamestown Senior Center, attracted 56 entries.

One of the surprise announcements of E3 this year was an open-world action adventure game set in the same post-apocalyptic universe of the "Mad Max" film series.
There was just one problem: Max had a generic American accent. Deliberately so.
One of the Australian journalists shown the game, Stephen Farrelly from AusGamers, was less than impressed, and quickly kicked off an online petition to give Max back a proper "Strine" sound.
Tuesday morning, Christofer Sundberg, founder and executive producer of Avalanche Studios, capitulated to the fan outcry. He tweeted:
Attn. fans who want Max to have an Aussie accent in #MadMaxGame : It shall be so. We admire your loyalty. You have been heard.— Christofer Sundberg (@CHSundberg) July 2, 2013
The petition currently has 2,883 signatures -- a small amount in terms of fan base, but obviously a vocal crew when it came to social media.
There's no word on who will voice the iconic role in the upcoming games, so feel free to suggest voice actors in the comments below.

NEW YORK (AP) — ABC says it has promoted Lara Spencer to co-host status on "Good Morning America."
Spencer, the lifestyle anchor since returning to the show in 2011, now has billing parity with Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos.
She was the show's national correspondent from 1999 to 2004. Then, for seven years, she was a host of "The Insider."
Her promotion comes as "GMA" continues to beat NBC's "Today" show in the ratings, but after it recently lost two members of its team: Sam Champion and Josh Elliott.
The other current members of the "GMA" family are Amy Robach and Ginger Zee.
This week, "GMA" welcomed Michael Strahan, a co-host of the daily "Live with Kelly and Michael," as a contributor.

DULUTH, Minn.—Cliffs Natural Resources and the United Steelworkers of America have reached tentative agreement on a contract covering union workers in Minnesota and Michigan.
Cliffs and the Steelworkers announced the tentative deal Wednesday. WDIO-TV (http://bit.ly/Qe6RAL) reports negotiations began Monday in Duluth.
Cliffs says the proposed three-year contract would cover about 2,400 Steelworkers at the company's Empire and Tilden mines in Michigan, and its United Taconite and Hibbing Taconite mines in Minnesota. No details were released.
The old contract expired Sept. 1, but the two sides agreed to extend the contact with no strike and no lockout without at least 48 hours' notice from either side.
Members of the United Steelworkers approved a new three-year contract with U.S. Steel last month. ArcelorMittal USA also reached a tentative agreement with Steelworkers last month.

Mark Wahlberg relished looking stupid on Ted set
MARK WAHLBERG had no qualms about looking silly while filming his new comedy TED, insisting he's not as "self-conscious" as he was in his younger days.
The X Factor boyband scooped the gong, which was voted for by listeners of Capital FM and iTunes users.
The Departed star had to use his imagination to shoot scenes in Seth McFarlane's film, which uses CGI to create a foul-mouthed teddy bear which comes to life.
Wahlberg relished acting the fool on the big screen, but admits he would have struggled with the part earlier in his career because he was desperate to appear cool.
He tells MTV News, "I've really found myself in a really comfortable position. I've always said that years ago I wouldn't have been able to do something like this: I was a little too self-conscious. And now, being a married father of four, I don't give a s**t about what anyone thinks. So I'm just ready to get crazy, look stupid, come off as being ridiculous, and that's what acting is...
"I've seen it in some really young actors - coming from a musical background, coming from the street, always worrying about being cool, wanting to be perceived as hip, you don't want to do too many things that may make you look a little sceptical."

It is possible that the main title of the report Motor Neuron Disease is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Motor neuron disease comprises a group of severe disorders of the nervous system characterized by progressive degeneration of motor neurons (neurons are the basic nerve cells that combine to form nerves). Motor neurons control the behavior of muscles. Motor neuron diseases may affect the upper motor neurons, nerves that lead from the brain to the medulla (a part of the brain stem) or to the spinal cord, or the lower motor neurons, nerves that lead from the spinal cord to the muscles of the body, or both. Spasms and exaggerated reflexes indicate damage to the upper motor neurons. A progressive wasting (atrophy) and weakness of muscles that have lost their nerve supply indicate damage to the lower motor neurons.

If you think that insurance has a disadvantage for the insured, think again. The fact is, there are many people in every society start realizing that they all need protection no matter what kind it is. They may have life, auto, health, home protection or whatever based on their needs and also budget since they have to pay for the premium rate. However, if you want to get the benefits, you need to choose the right and best protection for you also family.
What Are The Benefits of Insurance for Your Life?
Generally, there are many benefits you can get from having insurance in your life so you will not regret this protection at all for you and family as the following:
• You waste your money in a useful way
Many people have much money but they are not smart either to allocate their money in a better way. Some just spend it for having fun to get entertainment and some just waste it all to buy their favorite things or go shopping. In fact, they don't use their money to something beneficial for the future like saving, investment or protection. If you choose protection as the way to save your money in the future, you are smart person. Though you may not feel the benefit right away, but in several years, you will know that this is useful not only for you but also the close people around you like family.
• You will get higher amount in the end of contract
Though this protection doesn't belong to investment product but more to risk management, but many people think that as the investment product. Every month or certain time you pay the premium payment; the company will save your money and add it with additional tax or interest. It means your money will be higher than before. If you don't make any claims until the end of the contract, the money will go back to you with different amount so you may feel the benefit of this protection.
That is why, you can consider this insurance as one of your simple way to make your money become useful instead of wasting it to something unuseful.

Ted Siefer's City Hall: Video machines and gambling: What gambling?
July 26. 2014 8:59PM
THIS WEEK'S good question award goes to Ward 5 Alderman Ed Osborne.
The topic at Tuesday's meeting of the Administration Committee was video poker machines and their reputed use for gambling. The city charges $2,000 a year to license a single machine.
"You're allowing people to pay 50 bucks for a pinball machine and $2,000 for another. What does that tell you about what's going on with them?" Osborne asked with a grin.
One person not smiling was Ward 12's Keith Hirschmann, the alderman who put the matter on the agenda. He was alarmed after reading about the bust of a drug ring whose alleged ringleaders were tied to a West Side pizza restaurant that was licensed to have three video poker machines.
Hirschmann thinks the city is essentially selling licenses to gamble and that the machines could lead to other "illicit" activities.
But Hirschmann didn't find a whole lot of like minds on the committee. Its chairman, Ward 1 Alderman Joyce Craig, pointed out that the ordinance governing the "amusement devices" has numerous restrictions.
City Clerk Matt Normand, whose office oversees the licensing of the machines, backed up Craig.
"I would consider it an extremely strong ordinance, regarding not only what devices are licensable, but where they're placed," he said.
"There's no exchange of money permitted, and if they're caught, they lose all the devices, and they risk losing their business license," he said.
Normand didn't mention it, but it bears noting that the machines generated about $240,000 in revenue for the city in the 2014 fiscal year.
Determining whether a video poker machine is being used by an establishment for gambling falls to the police, and it's a resource-intensive task, involving undercover work and surveillance.
Manchester police, in coordination with the state Liquor Commission and federal agents, spent the better part of the past year on an investigation of illegal gambling that resulted last month in seven arrests and the seizure of cash and machines from three establishments in Manchester.
But the pizza restaurant was not among them, and it appears that the machines are still on the premises.
Normand said while drug conspiracy charges have been brought against a co-owner of the pizza restaurant and a person state police described as a former employee, there hasn't been a trial.
"To my knowledge, I believe the establishment being referenced ... has not gone to court yet," he said. "We would work with the Police Department after the trial, if there is a finding of guilt."
The committee voted to receive and file Hirschmann's agenda item, but the alderman is undaunted.
"I will meet with the city clerk and chief of police," he said. "I want police involved because we're basically, for $2,000, licensing people to gamble."
Hirschmann has a meeting tentatively scheduled with police officials this week.
Alderman-At-Large Joe Kelly Levasseur raised another issue.
Noting that state police alleged that the pizza restaurant spent less than $20 a month on food supplies, he said the machines give businesses an unfair advantage.
"As a restaurant owner, I look at what I have to go through every month, every day," he said. "It bothers me because I know a lot of businesses are being propped up because these machines, they're pulling in serious dinero."
City finance officials on Tuesday provided their regular update to the aldermen on the Revolving Loan Fund (RLF), and for the first time in awhile, there was good news - sort of.
The owners of JW Hills, the downtown restaurant and bar, were willing to pay $20,000 of the roughly $25,000 remaining on their original $75,000 RLF loan, with a single $15,000 lump sum payment and the remainder being paid off in $1,000 installments over the next five months.
Normally, a $5,000 loss wouldn't be something to crow about, but over the past year, the aldermen have been asked time and again to accept meager settlement offers, or to write off entire loans, at losses in the tens of thousands of dollars.
Sharon Wickens, the assistant finance director, told members of the Accounts Committee that the latest offer was much better than the last one put forward by JW Hills. "They've been struggling for some time," she said.
"The restaurant business isn't easy. What's being offered is less than being paid in full, but it was definitely reasonable compared to what other people offered to settle."
Alderman Osborne once again summed up the situation succinctly: "Take it while we can get it."
And that's just what the committee voted to do.
By now, you've no doubt heard about STEAM Ahead NH, the program to begin at West High in the fall aimed at setting students on career tracks in science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics.
Mayor Ted Gatsas wants younger students to be able to get in on the action, so he's embarking on something he's calling STEAM Ahead Jr.
The idea is to be able to send all fourth-grade students on an all-expenses paid field trip to the SEE Science Center in Manchester. Gatsas is working on the project with inventor and entrepreneur Dean Kamen, a major booster of science and technology education and the founder of the FIRST Robotics program.
"I think it's a great opportunity to get students interested at a very young age," Gatsas said. "If you get them involved, you're going to keep them involved."

Representatives from the Department of Environmental Planning (DEP) were at the last Community Board 5 meeting at Christ the King High School in Middle Village last Wednesday with plans for constructing an oxygen aeration system in Maspeth in an effort to create a better habitat for marine life.
The project, currently in the design phase, includes the utilization of a vacant lot along Newtown Creek for construction of a treatment plant at 58-26 47th St. in Maspeth and the installation of an aeration pipeline along the bed of the creek.
Board members were concerned that the process might produce a smell, but DEP representative Anthony Costello assured the pressure of the proposed methods would be low enough to avoid agitating the polluted water.
"When the air comes in it's going to transfer oxygen into the water, and if the dissolved oxygen in the water is greater than 1 mg. per liter, then hydrogen sulfide will not be produced," Costello explained. "The main odor that comes out of the septic conditions is the hydrogen sulfide, so by putting the air in, there is no way or the odor to be produced."
According to DEP representatives, a consent order to clear the property, build the new facility and install the pipeline allows for a three-year construction phase, if the Public Design Commission approves the plans.
Shane Ojar of DEP assured the board this is the best way to create a habitable Newtown Creek for area wildlife.
"We have projects that have similar goals," Ojar assured the board. "This is the right method for this area."
CB5's Environmental Committee plans to further discuss the proposal at its next meeting scheduled for May 28 at 7:30 p.m. at the board office, 61-23 Myrtle Ave. in Glendale.

America has an ample number of leaders, in the workplace and in politics. But unfortunately, what many of these leaders are actually doing is "leadIng."
You'll note the capital "I." That's not a typo.
We have politicians who don't so much govern as self-promote, grandstanding for future fundraisers with little thought of making the world a better place. And we have bosses and managers leading as a means to get ahead, ignoring the importance of the people they purport to lead.
LeadIng is quite different from leading. For more on that, let's turn to a new high-profile leader who is making the "i" in leading nearly invisible.
When Jorge Mario Bergoglio was chosen as the 266th pope of the Catholic Church in March — taking the name Francis, after St. Francis of Assisi — he immediately showed the world his leadership style would be different from that of his predecessors.
He said no to the fancy red loafers favored by Pope Benedict XVI, opting for simple black shoes. He declined the papal limo for a bus ride. For living quarters, he chose the Vatican guesthouse over an apartment in the Apostolic Palace.
Author Chris Lowney has observed the behavior of the first Jesuit pope and used him as a case study in effective leadership. In his new book, "Pope Francis: Why He Leads the Way He Leads," Lowney writes of Bergoglio's first days as pope: "We were not watching someone trying to act like a pope. We were watching a person unafraid to be who he was."
And from that, Lowney draws this spot-on conclusion: "Be comfortable in your own skin. Know who you are, the good and the bad. And find the courage not just to be yourself, but to be the best version of yourself. These are the foundations of self-leadership, and all leadership starts with self-leadership because you can't lead the rest of us if you can't lead yourself."
I asked Lowney about the artifice that often masquerades as leadership.
"I'd say we're kind of plagued with managers who feel like fakes a lot of the time," he said. "You think, 'This guy is putting on an act here and trying to lead us.' And you feel like this person doesn't have his own thing figured out. Or you feel like this person is in it for themselves. Powerful leadership is where you get the impression that this person knows who he or she is, they've thought deeply about it, and this person is willing to sacrifice for some project or mission."
If you look at various surveys about how much we trust our leaders — both in business and in politics — the results are abysmal. Part of the problem, Lowney posits, is that we're victims of a "leadership industry" in which people believe workshops and advice books are all it takes to excel at managing.
"The culture is such that everything has to be digestible in five easy tricks," Lowney said. "We can encapsulate important ideas in a very simple way, but I think getting to be that person requires hard work. To imply that I'm going to take an airplane ride and digest a few tricks and be a better leader is just absurd."
A former Jesuit seminarian who went on to a long career in corporate America, Lowney highlights the Jesuits' yearslong training, much of which revolves around self-examination and working among the people they seek to lead. It's "dirty-footed leadership" with a focus on understanding other people and their circumstances and putting their needs ahead of one's own.
Of course an aspiring manager isn't going to follow the path of a Jesuit priest. But there's something to be borrowed from this approach, a way of focusing people on the greater good earlier in their careers so they might embrace that attitude.
"We never think about investing in anything like this," Lowney said. "Our perception is, 'We're going to equip you with technical skills, and then boom, you do your job.' Only when people were well down the road and starting to come into very senior positions, might we say, 'Well, we need to give this person a coach.' The things they should have figured out about themselves when they were younger and more malleable, we never thought to tell them about."
Again, the issue here is not one of religion or faith, but of encouraging people to look outside themselves. I would argue that's the right thing to do on a moral basis, but in the workplace, it's also the right thing to do pragmatically.
You will be a more effective leader if you place your own self-interests aside. People will work harder for you. Loyalty will increase. You don't need an academic study to prove that — just think of the bosses, coaches, even parents, who have led you and helped you reach a better place.
In the book, Lowney distills Pope Francis' leadership principles like this: "Commit to yourself deeply, including your frailties, and come to some peaceful acceptance of yourself and your calling to lead. Then, commit to 'get over yourself' to serve a purpose greater than self."
He recognizes these might be lofty expectations for those of us who aren't the pope.
"My unrealistic hope would be that this — or something, or anything, or maybe this pope — might help to catalyze a much wider conversation about what good leadership looks like. That maybe we'd be more willing to call out politicians and businesspeople who are self-absorbed in ways that we just see are not helping us meet our broader goals."

The Wandering Child: Keeping Your Growing Toddler Safe
February 12th, 2013 posted by Armin Brott
by Armin Brott
My year-old child has begun to climb out of the crib at night. How do I keep her safe?
Start by thinking about her environment in larger and larger circles, from the crib to the door. First, the crib. There get rid of all those bumpers (those oh-so-cute fabric pads that used to protect your baby from banging her head against the inside of the crib). Bumpers make great stepping stones for climbers. Also, take all those big stuffed animals, pillows, and heavy comforters out of the crib. These items were dangerous as suffocation hazards when your baby was small. Now that she's bigger, they're tickets to freedom. Start by explaining to your child that this is her very own, safe, special bed, and that she can sleep there all night, just like Mommy and Daddy do in their bed. Then, if you haven't done it already, adjust the crib's mattress so it's at the setting closest to the floor. If the lower mattress and lack of climbing materials still don't prevent escape, you have a few options.
// You might consider buying one of the commercially available safety nets that fit over the top of the crib like a large dome. These nets always seem a little like you're imprisoning your child, but they're a temporary solution (they're also excellent for keeping roaming pets out of the crib). If safety nets aren't your style, consider installing a gate across her doorway or using a doorknob safety cover that your child won't be able to open. If you go this route, though, be absolutely sure that your child's room is completely childproofed. As your child approaches two, she'll begin associating climbing and jumping with the possibility of falling, and may become more cautious on her own. You can help the process along by reminding her-"Remember how you fell down and bumped your head and cried?" Whatever you do, don't just give up and put pillows around the crib, as some people do. Because pillows can shift around and expose the bare floor, this is not a good long-term solution. The next step is a "big girl bed," which can be a mattress on the floor or a twin bed. The twin bed should be pushed against the wall, with a bed rail on the outside. This all applies until it is time for potty learning, when the world gets even bigger!

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Sept. 23, 2005) - The East Tennessee State volleyball team edged Campbell 31-29, 33-31, in games three and four, as the Lady Bucs downed the Fighting Camels, 3-1, to earn the victory in their first-ever Atlantic Sun contest, Friday night in Brooks Gym.
Junior Jennifer Sartor (
Down 29-23 in the third frame, ETSU rallied with eight-consecutive points tying the Camels at 29, and surging past to a 31-29 victory. Freshman Betsy Jones (
Senior Sara Scandiffio (
Sartor paced the Lady Bucs in the frame with six kills, followed by Jones with four of her career-high nine.
"We didn't want our opponent to control the outcome," said head coach Lindsey Devine on her team's third-game surge. "When the ball entered our side of the court, we took control and took it one point at a time."
Game four was a battle all the way, as ETSU's largest lead in the frame was a mere three points. With the score tied 29-29, the teams traded points beginning with a kill by Sartor, to take the 30-29 lead.

"Betsy Jones did a great job stepping in," said Devine of the rookie. "It's great to see a freshman come in add to the success of the team. Crystal Palmer also stepped up her game. She'd been in the gym all week and played like we all knew she could."

...38...Wednesday, September 11, 2013
The random number generator chose number 38, Bogna. (Sorry, no link for the name.) Please email me (address in sidebar) with your information so that Reversible Knits can land in your mailbox.
Last Sunday, I decided we needed a few new potholders around here. (Ours were looking really bad!) So, I dug out the old loom maker my grandfather made and we finished one that had been started around three years ago. Boy did that feel good. I left the loom and a bowl of the loops on the coffee table for anyone to get started when the urge hit them. It hit Andrew on Monday.here. I have the original little directions which suggests leaving the loops on a while (the longer the better) which will make it easier to finish off and will result in a larger potholder. And, if you don't feel like making a loom, you can always buy a metal one. But, believe me, there is something SO special about making a potholder on a handmade loom.
Back tomorrow with another book giveaway!

Justice - Electro Music With Punk Attitude.
French duo Justice are one of the hottest electronic-music acts today. They have achieved great success since the release of their debut album last year, which was even nominated for a Grammy-Award for "Best Electronic/Dance Album". With an impressive live setup and some cool-sounding records, here's a great opportunity to check out which gear they use...
Justice are Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay. Either releasing super-catchy pop singles such as "D.A.N.C.E."; remixing major acts such as Britney Spears, Franz Ferdinand and Daft Punk; or causing widespread controversy (at least back home in France) with their ultra-violent video for "Stress", Justice have put their mark on the current music scene. Their eclectic sound has managed to attract indie rock and dance music fans alike, and their influences couldn't be more diverse. They say they are "hardcore fans" of acts such as Sparks, The Beatles, Parliament, Snoop Dogg and Steely Dan, among others.
"We never aimed to do proper dance music. Some of our tracks are being played in clubs by DJs, and that's great. But we wanted do an album that you could listen to at home - not just a collection of bangers. " Gaspard told Remix mag.
Unlike many modern DJs, they don't use MP3s when DJ-ing.
"I think the technical possibilities are wider with CDs than with Serato. You play faster when you don't have to choose from a million MP3s." said Xavier.
The act is also vocal about their preference for music software such as GarageBand and Cubase:
"We love the flexibility and the possibilities offered by software. A lot of people say that software is s*** because it doesn't sound like analog-hardware stuff. I think the fact that it doesn't sound like analog gear — but something else entirely — is why we like to use it. And with Cubase SX and GarageBand, we mainly used the sound libraries, which are quite amazing."
Their electro-punk (or "heavy-metal techno" as dubbed by some) sound has gained them fans worldwide and the band has performed on major music festivals across the planet. Their live act is very impressive, consisting of their trademark glowing cross in the middle of the stage, an impressive amount of racks and two mighty walls of Marshall cabs on both sides of the stage.
Justice and their Pioneer CDJ-1000 turntables
Equipment used by Justice in their productions include:
- An Apogee Ensemble Recording Interface
- A Power Mac G5
- GarageBand software
- Cubase SX
- Neve Preamp (on some vocals)
- For monitors, Altec iPod speakers and a Bose radio alarm clock
This isn't Spinal Tap...Justice's rocking stage gear
Their Live setup includes:
- JazzMutant Lemur as their main instrument, plugged to Ableton Live.
- They have also been seen using Pioneer's CDJ-1000 turntable and Korg's microKONTROL midi controller.
- And, of course...lots of Marshall cabinets...

Welcome and thank you for visiting the on-line home of the Rhode Island Lottery.
Please take some time to visit the pages of our site, which are updated continually, not just with winning numbers and new game announcements, but with information you as a Lottery player, Retailer, Rhode Island resident, or casual observer will find interesting and informative.
Why not become a member of our VIP Club? Enjoy the benefits of receiving automatic winning number notifications, advanced announcement of new games and more. VIP members also have exclusive access to a variety of promotions and prize giveaways.
Also, remember that in Rhode Island, when you play the Lottery, everybody wins. Since 1974, the Lottery has transferred more than 6.9 billion to the State's General Fund, which supports almost every aspect of life in our State, from education and health care to public safety and the environment. So, you don't have to play the Lottery to reap its rewards. In addition to the money generated for the General Fund, there are the sales commissions paid to the hard-working Lottery Retailers; those business establishments, restaurants, and small stores across the State where Lottery products are sold. So, the story does not end with the purchase of a Lottery ticket, rather it is just the beginning of the many ways funds are channeled back into the local economy.
As a business, the Rhode Island Lottery has a responsibility to maximize revenues. However, as a State Agency, our challenge lies in maximizing revenues while maintaining the trust and best interest of the citizens of the State of Rhode Island. It has always been, and will continue to be, the Rhode Island Lottery's goal to achieve both.
The success of the Rhode Island Lottery would not be possible without the commitment of the Rhode Island Lottery Retailers, our employees, and most of all our players. We encourage everyone to Play Responsibly and continue to enjoy the Lottery as it was intended when it started in 1974 - a fun, positive way to generate additional revenue for the State of Rhode Island.
Our goal is to make this site as user-friendly and informative as possible. We value your opinions, so feel free to contact us with any suggestions you may have or questions you don't find answered on our site.
Thank you and enjoy!

Washington, DC – Priests for Life, recently named among the top 20 Christian Organizations in the nation that promote political involvement, announced today that it has designated three Sundays as "National Voter Registration Sundays." The organization is urging Churches of every denomination to give the members of their congregations the opportunity to vote by having voter registration forms at Church for the people to fill out. The dates chosen are June 4 (Pentecost Sunday), July 2 (the weekend of Independence Day), and September 17.
"This is not about partisan politics. This is about involvement as citizens in self-government, and involvement as Christians in renewing the culture," explained Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life and President of the National Pro-Life Religious Council. "It is completely legal and perfectly appropriate that in the very places where people hear the Word of God telling them to make the world a better place, they be given one of the simplest tools to do that. Unless we enable Christians to exercise their citizenship, we risk becoming marginalized and irrelevant," Fr. Pavone concluded.
Priests for Life provides basic information on how to conduct Voter Registration Sundays at www.priestsforlife.org/vote.
Priests for Life is the nation's largest Catholic pro-life organization dedicated to ending abortion and euthanasia. For more information, visit www.priestsforlife.org.

Sewer Problems?
CALL AHEAD!!!! Call us 24 hours a day at 793-5080 whenever you have signs of a developing backup. We're on duty around the clock; working together, we can prevent most sewer backups. Signs of blockage include:
•Slow Draining Sinks
•Wastewater back flow
•Continuous Sewage Smell
If there's a problem with the City line, we should be able to fix it before sewage backs up into your house. If your private line is blocked, we'll tell you so you can get it fixed.
Be sure your home owner's insurance policy covers damage due to a sewer backup. Even if a backup is due to a blocked City main, the City may not be allowed to pay for damages.
Under State law, cities are liable for sewer main backup damage only if there has been prior notice and time to fix the problem. Although City crews can help clean up the immediate mess, home owners - not the City - must pay for replacing carpets, furniture and repairs. Another sewer backup safeguard is to install a check valve. This simple device keeps wastewater from flowing back up your private line into your home. (Check valves are now required on some newer homes).
Improvements to the City's sanitary sewer system have reduced backups considerably in recent years. That doesn't mean much, however, if it happens in your house.

Introduction Ever wondered how to fit an oak floor? With this in mind we have created this handy guide showing the different stages of one of our recent installations. Throughout this guide we have enlisted the help of one of our highly skilled floor fitters, as he shares some of his helpful tips and tricks from his experience in the trade. ( To download a printable pdf version of this guide, click here ) Glueing Method In this particular floor fit, the Hakwood Bonneval engineered oak boards were fitted by glueing them to the sub-floor, which had an underfloor heating system already installed. To make things extra tricky, one side of our room had a plastered wall which would eventually have skirting running along it. On the other side, there was a pointed stone wall, where the flooring needed to run clean up to the edge of the wall, and would therefore require some scribing. A timber frame...

on special teams, we are absolutely awful. i don't think there's any way that you can convince me it's not as bad as it looks. it's usually much worse. we can't cover a kick off, we can't return a kick off, our players make bonehead plays (witness cecil sapp fielding the ball at the 1). again, this is not an indicator of a team that will even compete in the playoffs.
our offense has gotten worse and worse over the season. how are you possibly going to excuse our worst rushing output in years last week? or the way the running game has simply failed to help denver hold onto the ball in critical situations? i give jake a lot of grief for not ever converting 3rd downs, but on the flip side, the running game should NOT be putting him into so many third and long situations. playoffs teams simply don't have as many third and longs as we've had lately.
and again, great, they're amazing offenses. what do you think we'd face if we made the playoffs? the cleveland browns again?
i don't recall us doing much of anything for jake last week. keep in mind that, as many dumb plays as he may make after the fact, he avoids a LOT of sacks simply by being mobile. matt lepsis erik pears is not. our right tackle situation has just been weak this year.
denver has all the talent to turn it around, but most of thing i see are lack of execution and poor coaching (pointing specifically to the defense). if those get turned on again, anything's possible, but from the last three weeks, broncos fans have a good reason to be a bit pessimistic.

A grand and glorious tennis career that began on the public courts of Compton and was nurtured by a proud and ambitious father edged closer to the end at Wimbledon on Friday.
Or maybe not.
Venus Williams went out in the third round. She is 34, is living with a condition called Sjogren's syndrome that can bring unusual fatigue, has won five titles here, but hasn't sniffed one since she got to the final in 2009 and lost to her sister Serena.
This was a third-round match against a talented opponent, 2011 champion Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic. The final score was 5-7, 7-6 (2), 7-5. It might have been even closer than the score.
"There were three break points in the entire match," said Tracy Austin, the former major champion, who was a commentator on the broadcast here. "You were on the edge of your chair the entire time."
So when Williams seemed to tire near the end, and dumped her last shot on match point into the bottom of the net, the first thought was that this might be a last hurrah for her at a place that she has loved and been loved.
But her public stance is that she will soldier on.
"People have been trying to retire me since I was like 25," she said. "For some reason in tennis, we always do that to our players. It's weird. We don't encourage them to stick around. It's like, get out of here.
"So, I'm not getting out of here."
She said she might even add a tournament or two to her summer schedule, which already includes commitments at Cincinnati and Montreal.
And she said she is still geared up here to advance in the doubles with Serena. Together, they have won 13 Grand Slam doubles titles and three Olympic doubles gold medals.
She spoke to the quality of her match with Kvitova, as per Austin's assessment.
"It's a shame there had to be a loser in this match," she said, "and more a shame that it had to be me."
Statistics usually tell the story, but in this match, they did not.
Kvitova, seeded No. 6 and 10 years younger, had 48 winners to Williams' 25. But Kvitova had 34 unforced errors to Williams' 19.
"I think the match just showed how great a battle it was from both of us," Kvitova said. "She's a huge player, a big champion. We all have respect for her."
Was this the best match she had played since the year she won here?
"Yes," Kvitova said. "I think can say that."
She also said, further confirming Austin's assessment, "I think both of us tried everything we could."
Williams has been playing in major tournaments since 1997. She got to the final of the U.S. Open that year when she was 17. Her father, Richard, taught her the game and continues to have involvement in her coaching, and her sister's.
Serena is seeded No. 1 here and has also won five Wimbledon singles titles, three of them with Venus across the net in the final.
Venus was asked what was at the core of her sister's ongoing success, at her age of 32, soon to be 33.
As she watches Serena, Venus says, "I'm fighting with her. I'm standing, rocking back and forth, almost hitting the ball. I'm pretty much right there with her, fighting."
