Monday night was an exciting night for Folded Wing and the rest of the radio industry, it was of course the 2013 Sony Radio Academy Awards.
Folded Wing were delighted to be nominated in the “Music Radio Broadcaster Of The Year” category for Jamie Cullum on BBC Radio 2.
Jamie and the Folded Wing team all headed down to the Grosvenor House Hotel for the awards, suitably dressed up for the night! Jamie also played at the event and caused a bit of a stir on the red carpet when he decided to turn the tables on the press!
Here’s the photo from Jamie’s view
instagram.com/p/ZSSA4nD0yh/
The first half saw a performance from Robbie Williams and the first awards. Radio 1′s Dan and Phil walked away winners of this years first ever “Sony Golden Headphones Awards”. Danny Baker took an award for “Best Entertainment Programme” for his weekend show on 5 Live, only a few months after leaving his BBC London slot! John Humphrys collected an award for Radio Journalism Of The Year for his interview with former BBC Director General, George Entwistle, John made a lovely tribute to the former DG in his acceptance speech.
The Folded Wing team were particularly happy to see The Listening Project take away a bronze award for “Best Speech Programme”, a project that we all particularly admire and love.
It was also fantastic to see Steve Lamacq walk away with his FIRST EVER Sony award. He was presented with a special award for his 20 years of service to radio, an award that is thoroughly deserved!
Following a performance from The Saturdays it was soon time for the second half of the awards featuring the category we were particularly interested in “Music Radio Broadcaster Of The Year”. Unfortunately Jamie didn’t win an award, but the whole team were delighted to see Cerys Matthews take the Gold. Cerys is an outstanding broadcaster and produces a show that we all love and listen to a lot!
Although a cliché we were incredibly happy just to be nominated in the 3rd year of doing the show with Jamie and we received some brilliant feedback from the judges…..
Jamie has become an accomplished broadcaster as well as a much loved musician. He wears his knowledge and respect lightly to deliver a show of fantastic music with energy and enthusiasm.
The second half of the awards saw Christian O’Connell win his 10th award in 10 years and Eddie Mair win “Speech Radio Broadcaster Of The Year”. Radio 4′s The Today Programme picked up “Breakfast Show Of The Year” and after a superb year with the Olympics and Paralympics, BBC Radio 5 Live won “UK Station Of The Year” .
There was also a lovely moment when Metro Radio won “Station Of The Year (1m+)” as Programme director Chris Pegg spoke of his delight at finally winning an award after years of turning up and leaving empty handed.
It was also fantastic to see so many UK indies represented in the awards and many of them taking awards away too! And to see National Prison Radio in a couple of categorys was a great reward for the work that they do!
All in all it was a lovely night and we had a few drinks afterwards in celebration of our nomination and a wonderful evening, topped off when Jamie Cullum performed to close this years ceremony!
You can listen to some highlights of the awards here…
Congratulations to everyone that won an award and we hope to see you next year!

Which came first: the chicken salad or the egg salad? It’s a question I’d never bothered to ask myself before this year.
Until recently, I don’t think I’ve ever much cared, since I’ve never considered myself much of a creamy, protein-based salad person: egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad, you-name-it salad. Boring stuff, all of them.
So maybe I was wrong.
Thanks to my friends, the Rosas, I have suddenly and quite firmly changed my mind. I developed a mad crush on Coronation chicken salad, thanks to my friend Shannon’s mother when she made them for a charity tea party. More recently, my disdain for egg salad melted away amid the hungry cries of three members of the 10-and-under set. When their father, Craig, asked me if I could whip up some egg salad for the kids, I didn’t bat an eye, though I realized that I had never before in my life thought to make such a thing.
It was a simple affair: hard boiled eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Uncomplicated, unfussy, and just the thing for three sometimes-fussy and anything-but-uncomplicated kids. And it was good– it left me wanting more.
A Moral Pickle
As my mind turned to thoughts of lunch for the week, I couldn’t make up my mind as to whether I should make a batch of chicken salad or egg salad. The annoying old chestnut “which came first, the chicken or the egg?” came to mind? Frankly, I had no idea. It’s a frustrating scientific/philosophic question that has no business complicating my luncheon plans. But I thought about it some more.
“Now who are the people that believe that chickens came first?” I thought. Creationists, of course. But then, I wondered, did the chickens of Eden actually lay eggs? What would be the purpose of that, apart from providing the occasional treat for Adam and Eve? Did the necessity of egg-laying or, at least, egg fertilization occur after The Fall? Were these chickens tainted with the mark of Original Sin along with the humans who caused all the trouble in the first place? These were questions I refused to answer on an empty stomach.
“And who falls into the egg-first camp?” I wondered. I figured it must be the Evolutionists or, if one wants to be less 19th Century about it, Scientists. If I were to make a sandwich to please those who believe that all life on earth began with single-celled organisms which gradually evolved into more complex organisms like, oh, chickens, it seemed to me that I might want to start with a simpler, earlier version of the animal. In other words, eggs.
I was a little overwhelmed by now and uncertain as to whether or not I should even bother with lunch at all– I was losing my appetite. “To hell with it,” I thought, “I’ll just make a salad with chicken and egg and make everybody happy.” It’s a Creative Evolution sort of thing. Of course, people have been trying to reconcile the two camps ever since Darwin came out with that book of his more than a century and a half ago. Some people are still trying. I’d like to think that, should the great minds belonging to each camp ever sit down together to try and hash things out, they might like to have this sandwich for lunch.
The Henri Bergson
As is typical of me, everything I knew about Henri Bergson, I learned from Monty Python’s Flying Circus. So what if his theory of Creative Evolution doesn’t really cut the mustard with scientists anymore. And it certainly doesn’t give much in the way of time-of-day to the Creationists. But he coined the term which I borrowed, so he gets the sandwich. Besides, there was a certain élan vital– a natural creative impulse (in this case, the need to please myself by the avoidance of inner conflict)– that caused the evolution of this here sandwich.
When making this salad, I discovered, much to my own mayo-loving horror, that I had only about two tablespoons left of the stuff in my refrigerator. Hmm. And then it dawned on me: why on earth does one need to add mayonnaise to an egg salad, when it’s already, well, so eggy? What is mayonnaise anyhow but egg yolk, oil, acid, and a few other things? Necessity or, at least, an unwillingness to make an extra trip to the grocery store is the mother of culinary invention. And it’s excellent for its purpose, in case you were wondering. I might never add mayo again.
Oh, and the apple? Totally works, too. Though the apple isn’t specifically mentioned in Genesis Garden of Eden story, neither is celery, with is more traditionally used for crunch in egg and/or chicken salads. And, well, I’m just not a huge fan of celery. In terms of Western mythologies, the apple is the traditional trouble maker. Think Adam and Eve, think Judgement of Paris. It’s sexier and much, much tastier.
Ingredients:
Makes about 6 sandwiches
6 large eggs, hard boiled
2 breasts of chicken or whatever other parts you prefer/have on hand, diced. I poached the bird pieces for this recipe, but bits of roasted chicken would work well, too. Just make sure to yield 1 1/2 to 2 cups.
1 apple finely diced, your preference. Something sweet and tart, like a Pink Lady will do nicely.
About 5 tablespoons of olive oil
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons dijon mustard
The juice and zest of one lemon (Meyer, in my case)
1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar (or more to taste)
A heavy pinch of salt (or two)
Capers (as many as you like)
Chopped chives and dill for garnish
Freshly ground pepper, to taste.
Preparation:
1. Peel and slice your hardboiled eggs lengthwise. If you haven’t the faintest idea as to how you might properly hard boil an egg, you are not alone. To hard boil eggs for this recipe, place the eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a pan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil, then immediately turn off the heat and let sit for seven minutes. Run cold water over the eggs to cool down the hot water, then add ice to the pot to stop the cooking process entirely. Congratulations, you now hopefully ahve six hard boiled eggs.
2. Remove yolks from the whites of your eggs and place them in a medium-sized bowl. Chop egg whites and add to another, larger bowl.
3. Mash yolks with a fork and to them add olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, and salt. No need to worry about emulsifying– everything will blend together. And there’s no need to worry about lumps– it’s an egg salad, for God’s sake.
4. Add diced chicken, apples, capers, and lemon zest to the chopped egg whites and toss together. Now add the egg yolk dressing, chives, dill, and ground pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.
5. If you are not currently feeling rushed by the cries of cranky, hungry small children, you might want to let the salad sit in your refrigerator overnight. The results will charm the pants right off of you.
6. For best eating results, let salad warm for several minutes to shake the chill of refrigeration off its shoulder. So to speak, since it should be (hopefully) obvious to you that chopped salads do not, as a rule, have shoulders unless they have been molded to into the likeness of something with shoulders, in which case, it still wouldn’t have shoulders, but merely looks as though it might have them. I think you know what I mean.
7. Serve over lightly-dressed greens or between two slices of toasted, hearty bread, like pumpernickel (as shown above).
Well, after this enlightening “moral pickle,” I’ll never look at chicken or egg salad the same. Deliciously funny.
Megan– Neither will I. And thank you. Thank you very much!
hmmm…that actually sounds good. (minus the apple. I’m not big on crunchy goodness). Have you thought about the whole mayo potato salad versus sour cream potato salad, egg with your potatoes versus dill? It drives me nuts.
I have a friend who doesn’t like crunchy things. Of course, he’s also terrified of getting paper cuts.
I enjoy hatching eggs and I loved this article. Very informative. Keep up the good work!
This sounds delicious — the olive oil as the added emollient is an inspired touch. I often use plain unsweetened nonfat yogurt for this type of sandwich filling mixture, rather than mayonnaise, as the texture is similar, but then you get a nice bonus zip (or twang, depending). | http://foodforthethoughtless.com/2010/01/the-henri-bergson-a-chicken-and-egg-salad-sandwich/ | 2013-05-18T10:52:19 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

After 2 weeks of not cooking, due to a lack of dishwasher (yes, we were actually so lazy we dirtied as few dishes as possible!), I wanted to try something lengthy, complicated, warm and comforting. Something that could go terribly wrong, but could also go terribly right. So, I broke out my Tagine cookbook, by Ghillie Basan, to find something spicy and filling to warm us on a cold winter night.
This dish caught my eye because even though it was comprised of the traditional lamb that is in many African dishes, it came together as meatballs, with sunny side up eggs, all cooked in the tagine.
The meatballs are called kefta, and they are filled with amazing spices, and are poached in water (which helps them keep their perfect shape), then cooked in spiced liquid that absorbs into the meatballs, and creates a hot, dry bottom of the tagine in which to cook the eggs.
Not only did the dish turn out perfectly, but the combination was nothing we had ever experienced. The spice, ras-el-hanout, is worth seeking out (I found mine at my local spice store, but you can also find it online).
My only caution is to be careful of the spice level. I will write this recipe with the spice level I used so hopefully it will do the trick (vs. the original recipe from the cookbook).
Trust me, it is worth the effort. And, ironically enough, at the end of the day there really weren’t many dishes to speak of – except the tagine itself (which doesn’t go in the dishwasher).
KEFTA TAGINE WITH EGGS AND ROASTED CUMIN
Serves 4
For the Kefta:
16 ounces ground lamb
1 onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons dried mint
3 teaspoons ras-el-hanout
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
a small bunch of fresh flatleaf parsley, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the Rest of the Dish:
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
6-8 eggs
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, dry-roasted and ground
a small bunch of fresh flatleaf parsley
To make the kefta, put the ground lamb, onion, mint, ras-el-hanout, cayenne and parsley in a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix well together. Using your hands, knead the mixture and mold it into small balls.
Fill a tagine (or dutch oven) with water and bring it to a boil. Carefully drop in the kefta, a few at a time, and poach them for about 10 minutes, turning them so they cook on all sides. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. Reserve roughly 2 1/2 cups of cooking liquid.
Add the butter to the tagine with the reserved cooking water and bring to a boil. Stir in the salt and cayenne and drop in the poached kefta. Cook over high heat until almost all of the liquid has evaporated (about 15 or so minutes). Carefully crack the eggs around the kefta, cover the tagine with the lid, and cook and steam until they are just set. Sprinkle the roasted cumin seeds and the chopped parsley over the top of the dish. Serve with pearl couscous and flat bread. | http://foodforthoughtblog.wordpress.com/tag/spices/ | 2013-05-18T10:41:52 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

The Great Tomato Un-Cookoff hosted by Food Systems Network NYC and New Amsterdam Market on Sunday, August 26th was a rousing success. Hundreds of tomato enthusiasts meandered through the market sampling awe-inspiring dishes created by an impressive roster of chef participants. Each creation captivated our taste buds in a different way. While we honor all of our chefs for their tomato mastery, the following chefs took home a special prize for distinguishing themselves in the following categories:
- People’ s Choice Award (voted best dish from our attendees): Alexis Delaney for her Tomatoes with Homemade Stracciatella and Anchovy Breadcrumb Salsa
- Judge’s Choice Award (voted best dish by our judges): Naxielly Dominguez for her Tomato Tortilla Soup w/Chipotle Goat Choose & Chimichurri Oil
- Most Creative Use of Tomatoes (selected by our judges): Renee Baumann for her Zesty Gazpacho Granita
- Best Interpretation of Un-Cooked (selected by our judges): Alicia Walter & Sam Alberts for their Tomato Watermelon Salad
These lucky chefs were awarded unrivaled experiences that included a guided tour of a local Greenmarket; lunch at the Green Table; and sunset drinks and snacks at the new Table Green with the Network’s very own culinary and market experts. Our fourth prize was two tickets to New Amsterdam Market’s upcoming Cider Rival and tasting event in October.

The scholarship offers came early and often for South Garland (Texas) linebacker Austin Moss. The 6-foot-3, 208-pound prospect has been receiving offers since early in his junior season and those numbers have continued to climb since national signing day."I have seven offers so far: Wisconsin, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Virginia, Cincinnati and Louisville," said Moss. "They started coming over time. Wisconsin offered me and pretty soon after that Kansas State did. When football season started Louisville and Iowa State did. Then, the day of signing day, Virginia offered me and the next day Cincinnati offered me."Moss is also hearing from several more programs who could be on the verge of offering. He has taken Junior Day visits to Texas A&M, Texas and Oklahoma and is looking at possibly taking one to Texas Tech in the near future. He uses the events to get a better feel for the coaching staffs - a factor he says will be key when he makes his decision. "I plan on taking my time. Not a long time, but I'd like to have my choice made by the end of the spring or some time during the summer," Moss said. "I'm pretty open-minded about them all. There aren't really any top ones until I can give the coaches a call and get to know them." ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now for a FREE Trial

The Ocean
Wind, Swell and Rouge Waves
The wind not only produces currents, it creates waves. As wind blows across the smooth water surface, the friction or drag between the air and the water tends to stretch the surface. As waves form, the surface becomes rougher and it is easier for the wind to grip the water surface and intensify the waves.
The following images are from the chemical tanker ship "Stolt Surf", built in 1970, caught in a large storm in the North Pacific Ocean. The largest waves of the storm broke over the Bridge, more than 72 feet (22 meter) high. Images © Karsten Petersen. Used by permission.
Going into the trough of a wave
Riding up to the next peak
Nearly at the crest
Topping the crest...just to have another huge wave behind it.
Take it to the MAX! Anatomy of a Wave
Storms of equal size can generate much larger waves in the open Pacific Ocean as compared to the other oceans due to the long open distance of water. How big wind waves get depends on three things:
- Wind strength. The wind must be moving faster than the wave crests for energy to be transferred.
- Wind duration. Strong wind that does not blow for a long period will not generate large waves.
- Fetch. This is the uninterrupted distance over which the wind blows without significant change in direction.
Storms of equal size can generate much larger waves in the open Pacific Ocean as compared to the other oceans due to the long open distance of water.
After the wind begins to blow for a while, the waves get higher from trough to crest, and both the wave length and period become longer. As the wind continues or strengthens, the water first forms whitecaps and eventually the waves start to break. This is referred to as a fully developed sea.
Take it to the MAX! Beaufort Wind Scale
The waves in a fully developed sea outrun the storm that creates them, lengthening and reducing in height in the process. There are called swell waves. Swells organize into groups smooth and regular in appearance. They are able to travel thousands of miles unchanged in height and period.
The longer the wave, the faster it travels. As waves leave a storm area, they tend to sort themselves out with the long ones ahead of the short ones, and the energy is simultaneously spread out over an increasingly larger area. As the waves close in on the coast, they begin to feel the bottom and their direction of travel might change due to the contour of the land. Eventually, the waves run ashore, increasing in height up to 1.5 times their height in deep water, finally breaking up as surf.
There are many sailor tales of "rogue waves", "freak waves", "three sisters" and other "killer waves". Properly called "extreme storm waves" these tales were ridiculed and mariners were accused of using them as an excuse to cover their own mistakes in wrecks. Rogue waves are simply unusually large waves appearing in a set of smaller waves.
Some of the characteristics of rogue waves are:
- their height is greater than twice the size of surrounding waves,
- they often come unexpectedly from directions other than prevailing wind and waves, and
- they are unpredictable.
Most reports of extreme storm waves say they look like "walls of water," and are seen as steep-sided with unusually deep troughs. The USS Ramapo reported one such wave with a height of 112 feet in the Pacific in 1933. Another report of a freak wave occurred with it struck the Queen Mary amidships, south of Newfoundland, at the end of World War II, rolling her to within a degree or two of capsizing.
Just recently, a 70 foot wave crashed down on the Norwegian Dawn cruise ship in April 2005. The average waves that day were 25 to 30 feet high before this monster wave struck. The wave even damaged the hull of the Norwegian Dawn.
What causes these enormous waves? Generally they form because of swells, while traveling across the ocean, do so at different speeds and directions. As these swells pass through one another their crests, troughs, and lengths happen to coincide and reinforce each other, combining to form unusually large waves that tower then disappear. If the swell are travelling in the same direction, these mountainous waves may last for several minutes before subsiding.
It is very seldom that huge waves over 65 feet (20 meters) are developed and normally sailors do not even see them, because ships nowadays will try to avoid such conditions by altering course before the storm hits. But they do occur. | http://forecast.weather.gov/jetstream/ocean/waves.htm | 2013-05-18T11:03:50 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Habana Outpost threw its annual pre-summer block party on Saturday, featuring music, a bathing beauty fashion show, and, of course, cheese-covered grilled corn.
A splendid time was had by many, judging from our exclusive slideshow above.
7 Comments
“A splendid time” was NOT had by those of us, the neighboring residents, at night and into 12AM Sat morning when the crowds had to be dispersed by police…when motorcycles ran amok in the streets of FT Greene…when flash mobs of men kept their party going in the new Fowler Plaza gathering place and seated on cars up and down the adjacent streets on Saturday night. This was a rerun of 2010 out-of-control retail initiative “allegedly” for the community well being by Habana Outpost, while raking in the bucks, but harshly impacting their neighbors because of lack of control…they did not learn (last year it rained…so we got a break!).
Where are the photos of the police…the garbage strewn on the streets…the videos of the almost war-zone-like happenings later in the day and into night???— brooklynsandy
No disrespect intended to brooklynsandy but is 12am Saturday night on a busy road in Brooklyn really considered that late?— zac
Funny, these photos must have been taken hours before the mayhem ensued and I had to listen to two hours of police sirens trying to clear the area followed by another hour or two of folks drinking in front of their cars…as previous commentor stated.
As usual the actual residents of Fort Greene end up having to deal with the resulting chaos over and over again with no regard by Habana or our local representatives.— stingyfeet
I agree with brooklynsandy. There was something gone wrong with this block party by about 10pm when I saw a half dozen cop cars there and it would be great if our local news blog could enlighten us rather than simply post a slideshow. I used to live across the street and it could be incredibly loud around summer 2008, 2009. We moved about four blocks away a couple years ago and on Saturday night i was again thankful i live far enough away that I cannot hear the Habana crowds. When Habana is at its best, it is a wonderful summer asset to the neighborhood. At its worst, it is an enormous disturbance (and disrespectful) to the rest of us residents. I wouldn’t mind one bit if it discontinued the block party since it was clearly ill-equipped to handle the crowd.— AK
this place is a menace to the neighborhood … the discourtesy habana outpost shows to the people who actually live in fort greene is astonishing … y’all need to stop portraying it as anything other than the nuisance it is …— eli
I agree it was mayhem, but Habana Outpost was not raking in the bucks that night. They closed early to try to get rid of the crowds, and, if you looked, the crowds were drinking out of styrofoam cups (presumably with their own liquor), which is not the kind of cup used by H.O. I think it was good intentions and poor planning by H.O. and weak policing by the 88th.
To Zac: There is no way that what was happening on Saturday night was within the range of what should be tolerated on any night of the week or at any hour.— 11238
We (many in the Ft Greene Community) are dismayed by the lack of coverage in the recent and repeated Habana Outpost Block Party melee on May 19th, 2012. There was a headline “Block Party Weekend and The Local Was There” regaling us with the “splendid time”…an article which might have been written by self serving owner Sean Meenan…but nary one follow up on the repeated assault of a flash mob, motorcyclists, police vans trying to take control and the residual shooed off party-goers who used the new Fowler Square plaza to hang out when they didn’t wish to return to whichever neighborhoods they came from. Hours and hours of run amok crowds. Where was the reporting?
As well, had The Local been truly monitoring its own work, it would have referred back to the article written by Linda Villarosa on May 3rd in which Meenan’s sham avowals to avoid and control a repeat incursion gained him a unanimous approval for a liquor license from the Community Board for his planned new additional cafe. Using Facebook and social media to extol their virtues of community outreach, it has in fact been an amplified and unmonitored grab for business…at the expense and assault on many who actually live near or next to Meenan’s business. One can only wonder, with the impending Barclay Center, how many of that enormous ongoing crowd, will be social networked into coming from a couple of blocks away to party at the new 24 hour, 7 days a week Meenan cafe with its new “approved” liquor license…? Where is the reporting?
Page after page of petitions are currently been signed addressing the noise assaults and the FAB engineered “entertainments” …aka FAB Fridays…which are not being managed and residents who are angered at the cavalier use of their neighborhood as “Party Central”. The Community Board…Councilmember James…the 88th Precinct…and the FAB Board & its president, Phillip Kellogg will be called on to explain why we our quality of life, and the Noise Codes of 2007 enacted in NYC are being flouted…why Meenan should be empowered to have a new liquor license. Indeed…where has the reporting been?
Thank you,

Reminder: This offer ends today!
If you remember the cute address labels that were around during the holiday season, well they have returned! You can get 140 custom labels for $3.50 shipped. (Shipping may vary slightly due to area).
If you don’t need address labels, I thought this idea was cute too. Evan is heading off to his first overnight camp this summer and everything needs to be labeled, so I thought these would work great!
You can head here to make your labels.
Thanks, I got a set yesterday for $3.59 shipped. I went back in this morning and got another set for $3.59 shipped for my sister. :)
Thanks I got a set yesterday for $3.59 shipping. I went back this am and got a set for my sister for $3.59 shipped as well. :) | http://forthemommas.com/hot-deals/custom-address-labels-tags-3-50-shipped-3 | 2013-05-18T10:31:30 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

*Edit
This is a direct replacement for the drivers currently in G_B \I1\
I'll see what I can do, but I'm going on 'vacation' for a week starting tomorrow. I'll be off the grid.
If it replaces the drivers in I1, do you use a modified inf to support the other non-4 GPUs?
i thought you just got back from vacation... LOL
I belive it was like a big beach or somthing... rofl
If it replaces the drivers in I1, do you use a modified inf to support the other non-4 GPUs?
No, check out the .inf files yourself. The HWIDs in both are exact duplicates, with no additional HWIDs added.
I uploaded the G_B 8.08a testpack.
I'll be gone in 12-hrs. See you all when I get back.
No more posts from me until then.
...off the grid.
Updated title to reflect general compatability with older gma's. Silly intel
Isn't the current level 14.36?
Isn't the current level 14.36?
It apparently was pulled by intel. Links directly to that driver page are now pointing to 14.34
Yet Another Reason to NOT bother the pack developers about fresh releases. They know full well when things come out. Waiting a week or more hurts no one and prevents the premature release of packs with 'withdrawn' drivers.
That's what nightlies are for
your both right
I'm baaaaacck!!!!!!
and i have a present waiting for you too... did you see it?
and i have a present waiting for you too... did you see it?
Yes, and you got mail!
updated link to v14.36.1.4977
Already updated.
Uploading now.
Acer 5315: Not installed drivers version 14.36.1.4977! Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for WindowsXP 14.36.2.4980 8/27/2008 works fine! and 14.35 works fine too!

Thanks SamLab,
I'll check it out.
On same other PCs trubles too with I1\ 06/27/2008,6.14.10.4964 - on the I1\ 12/19/2007,6.14.10.4906 works fine!
v14.36.2.4980 is now official, title updated.
v14.36.3.4990 out.
OK, once I get G_A rc4 out the door, I'll be all over G_B updates!
v14.37.0.5009 out
I don't see it. They've still got 14.36.4.5002 listed.

Hello all,
this is my very first experience with Sabayon.
I successfully installed Gnome 64bit version with no issue on to my laptop (BenQ P41, AMD Turion X2 TL60, Radeon X1100, Realtek ethernet, Atheros AR 5006EG)
However, I am facing minor problem with the wireless switch.
By the way I am dual booting with windows Xp home 32bit. To activate wireless I had to press Fn+F12
Pressed once : blue led on, wireless on
Pressed twice: orange led on, wireless off - bluetooth on
Pressed 3 times: pink led on, wireless on - bluetooth on
Pressed 4 times: no led, wireless off - bluetooth off
If I pressed Fn+F12 while Sabayon is still booting, everything worked fine; pressed once: blue led on, network manager can connect to my home router. pressed twice: orange led on, bluetooth on but wireless remains on. pressed 3 times: pink led on, bluetooth and wireless on. Pressed 4 times: led off, bluetooth off, wireless still on
However if I pressed Fn+F12 once sabayon finished booting, it does not work at all; i.e. pressed Fn+F12 once: no led, wireless off (I can not wake it up).Pressed twice: orange led on, bluetooth on - wireless off. Pressed 3 times: still orange led, bluetooth on - wireless off. Pressed 4 times: led off, bluetooth off - wireless off.
Bottom lines: I can not activate wireless switch once Sabayon finished booting.
To be fair, I also faced the exact same problem with Arch Linux....
Dmesg gave me the following indication:
[ 747.927495] atkbd serio0: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xc0 on isa0060/serio0).
[ 747.927511] atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e040 <keycode>' to make it known.
Can anybody help me to solve this minor annoyance??
Thank you | http://forum.sabayon.org/viewtopic.php?p=141322 | 2013-05-18T10:43:18 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
You don't need two SecurityEnforcementFilters and you don't need two AuthenticationFilterEntryPoints.
The AuthenticationFilterEntryPoint is used by SecurityEnforcementFilter whenever an AuthenticationException is detected. In other words, when SecurityEnforcementFilter decides the user needs to logon, it launches AuthenticationFilterEntryPoint. You can only have one such filter per webapp. If you really need more customised handling, such as the intended login form is based on the request that was made which failed, you'll need to write your own AuthenticationEntryPoint.
It should also be noted the AuthenticationProcessingFilter.defaultTargetUrl is only called when the login was not as a result of the AuthenticationFilterEntryPoint. If it was the result of the AuthenticationFilterEntryPoint, the SecurityEnforcementFilter will have told the AuthenticationProcessingFilter (via the HttpSession) the URL that should be displayed post-authentication. That URL should be the secured page the user requested but was denied. The defaultTargetUrl only applies if the user logged in of their own accord - not as a result of the application prompting them to. If you want to always ignore the AuthenticationFilterEntryPoint target URL, your best course of action is to write a custom AuthenticationEntryPoint which changes the HttpSession parameter.
Hope this explains a bit more clearly what is going on. | http://forum.springsource.org/showthread.php?10778-Multiple-Authentication-Entry-Points&p=5510 | 2013-05-18T10:14:55 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Hello,
I currently have a hierarchy of JPA entities that relies on inheritance as follows:
-an Account abstract base class
-a ChildminderAccount subclass that extends Account
-a ParentAccount subclass that also extends Account
-an Advertisement abstract base class
-a ChildminderAdvertisement subclass that extends Advertisement
-a ParentToChildminderAdvertisement subclass that extends Advertisement
-a ParentToParentAdvertisement subclass that extends Advertisement
and so on
As one can see this implies quite a number of JPA entities. Because my DAOs are parameterized using the JPA entities, I currently have too many DAOs and I feel my design is flawed somewhere.
For instance in my AdvertisementService class, I have 4 AdvertisementDAOs.
Can anyone please advise a better design?
Regards,
J.

I am new to springsource and this is my first project. I am reading s flat file and saving it to a MS SQL server 2008 table,
but the command below is incorrect. But it works on the similar project that I have been using as a model(I copied the components and modified the commands to read my own input file format and my own SQL server table). The difference between the table that I created for my project and the table from my model, is that my table contains one primary key and one secondary key, as in the source model, the output table has only one primary key.

Hi! I have been given the challenge to plan our visit to Australia and will be traveling soon (late May, early June), and finding it difficult to find a travel agent who is knowledgeable enough to help. We are a couple coming from the US (Boston area) and traveling with 2 adult children (21 & 23). We all love beaches and adventure. We are a little short on time and plan to take flights in the interest of time where necessary. Most of our party will be originating from Sydney having spent several days there. Having trouble figuring out the best way to see a lot and yet have a somewhat relaxing enjoyable vacation. Considering renting a Catamaran and learning to sail to see the islands, however, not opposed to other alternatives including a resort with something for everyone. Really want to see Hamilton Island and Whitehaven Beach, and open to other suggestions (read something about Fraser Island and renting 4x4's?). Any advice will be greatly appreciated! This is most likely a once in a lifetime trip for us.
We are thinking of a sailing holiday in the Whitsunday Islands chartering a yacht from either Abel Point ot Hamilton Island. Can anyone give us information about where we can re-fuel and replenish fresh water on board the boat without returning to either Abel Point or Hamilton Island?
Hi. I live in the Whitsunday area. I love bushwalking or hiking up hills or mountains Ect... Overnighting if need-be. Also enjoy kayaking. I am a male in my forties. I am interested in meeting anyone with the same interests. Who likes participating in these activities for exercise and adventure. I am fit, healthy and easy to get on with. Looking forward to a response from anyone in any age group with same interests.
Hi all, We have relatives visiting in july and they would like to visit hamilton island. Am wondering if it will be too cold at that time of year for swimming/snorkelling spending time on the beaches? If so would a better option be cairns/port douglas? Thinking could then do the rain forest trips/railway etc. Then spend 1 day braving the cold snorkling and would have more options for activities? Thinking of 5 day trip so am worried that cold could ruin a whitsundays holiday? thanks
My Husband to be and I are thinking about having our honeymoon on Hamilton Island or the Whitsunday's. We are from Melbourne but we have spent more time travelling the world than actually seeing our own country and thought we may have a honeymoon close to home. Years ago I spent a week on Great Keppel Island and had a really good time. Our honeymoon dates are between March 31st - April 13th. Is this too long to stay in one place or will there be plenty to do for the 2 weeks that we will be there? I really like the idea of staying in a resort and not just a hotel or apartment block. Can anyone suggest the best place for honeymooners to stay? We understand that we are travelling through the Easter Holiday period which unfortunately can't be helped from a work perspective. We are also extremely active people and will most probably do a lot of tours and island activities. I am leaning towards staying on Hamilton Island because I know we can fly direct from Melbourne but we are also open to suggestions as well. Budget we do't have as yet but like I said we are open to all suggestions. Looking forward to hearing from everyone Thanks Lisa
Hello, I would like to spend some days at the Great Barrier Reef - Whitsunday Islands - for relaxation, swimming, snorkling and meeting nice people. I am traveling alone. What is the best island to visit when traveling alone (but I am not a ClubMed/Robinson Club friend!!). I am planning to fly in to Hamilton Island and it would be okay for me to stay there ... unless I am getting other great recommendations from you :) Thanks a lot for your ideas and recommendations. TM
Hi all. Myself and my two friends are trying to plan a trip from Airlie Beach up to Cairns for the last week of June and the first week of July. We will also have with us a two year old child. We are on a tight budget and so are looking at the cheapest way of doing the trip. Can anybody recommend some budget accomodation? Bearing in mind that we would have a small child with us, we would rather something like an apartment or cabin rather than a hostel. We are looking at spending at least half of the trip around airlie beach/whitsundays. We also looked at renting a campervan but decided it night not be the best way to travel. Any advice or info anyone might have would be greatly appreciated! Thank you :)
Hello all! We are flying to Hamilton Island Airport on the 7th and plan to stay on the Whitsundays! What is the best place there? Should we just stay on Hamilton Island or should we go to a nicer? better? island? We are all together 4pax. Our budget is not luxurious...is it wise to go on a sailing trip to avoid paying hotel fees? Any special recommendation? Maybe a boat where we would be alone? Has anyone stayed in the Hamilton island apartments before? Thank you in advance!
We're planning a trip to Whitsunday Islands particularly to see Whitehaven Beach sometime between late May-middle of July next year. We're coming from LA. I have absolutely no clue where to begin so questions: 1. Does it rain a lot between May and July? When's the best time to go? 2. How many days should we allot for this trip? I've checked the flight schedule and it looks like we'll be losing 3 days to travel. Is 15 days too much if we're really most interested in Whitehaven beach? Thanks in advance :)
Melissa and Graham here! We are visiting Australia in September 2011 as part of our 'celebrate retirement!'round the world trip. We fly into Cairns from Sydney at the end of August and have booked 3 days on Green Island. We have 6 days to see Cairns/ Cape Tribulation/Port Douglas/Whitsundays before flying to New Zealand from Brisbane. [A flight from Mackay to Brisbane and on to Christchurch has been booked.] There are so many amazing places and so little time! Graham enjoys diving but I don't dive. Cape Trib looks amazing but do we need to stay there or is it better to stay in PD and travel for a day? What is the best way to get to the Whitsundays from PD/Cairns and should we fly to Proserpine, Hamilton Island or Townsville or is driving cheaper? Where are the best dive sites? So many questions...so confused...yet very excited! Look forward to advice from the travel experts out there! Thanks! Melissa
Hello, this is our first time to Australia (my husband and me). Our plans are to fly into Brisbane, stay the night, the next day go to the Australia Zoo, the next day do the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary & shopping. So, we have a week left to snorkel the reef. Does anyone know the best way to do this? Should we just get a snorkel cruise, or maybe stay on one of the islands? The cost is not important, but I am feeling frustrated and my travel agent doesn't know much about Australia. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Melissa
As I,ve posted before my friends and I are coming to Australia for 3 months. I was wondering where the best place would be for us to stay with a really good chance of getting a job, and a cheaper place to stay? Would also like to know what are drinks worth there? Whats a beer worth in the bar? Any other prices or expences would help to! Thanks! Cory
Hello, My name is Cory, my 3 friends and I are going on a trip to australia from Canada on Oct 10 through to Dec 29. When we land in Sydney we plan to take a 14 Day tour along the coast and end up in Whitsunday. Hoping to stay in Arilie Beach. Does anyone have any good tips for us? Like cheap places to stay? We plan on working once we have arrives in airlie beach does anyone know of any good jobs to get for the time we spend in Airlie beach? Or is it better to be staying somewhere else if were looking for work? Any tips would be greatly appreciated even if they dont have anything to doing with my questions. Thank you! Cory
We are a family of 5 (mom, dad, kids 10, 14, 16), trying to see as much of Australia as possible in 2 weeks. I have most of our time planned (Sydney, Melbourne/GOR via rental car, 3-day Kakadu/Katherine NP safari out of Darwin, then 3 night sailing trip in the Whitsundays out of Airlie). How do I squeeze in seeing more of the Great Barrier Reef between the Kakadu trip and Whitsunday sail? Is it as simple as booking a seaplane trip out of Airlie (haven't even checked into this in detail yet -- next on my to-do list)? I know this itinerary is very ambitious, so am trying to avoid having to add more airport-to-airport flight to piece this all together. Thanks for any help you can offer!
OK..... We are looking at optionts re: travelling to whitehaven beach to marry. Can anyone reccomend a boat we can hire to take us there please? Whats the weather like at the start of April, and whats the journey like via boat over to whithaven? We will base ourselves in Airlie afterwards we would like to go somewhere for a spoilterness honeymoon for 3 nights- a resort that allows no children, any pointers? Finally how do you get to Airlie from Brisbane? I thanks you for reading this and all my questions and hope you do not have a headache!!!!
Hi, I have been looking into cruises in the Whitsundays and travelling at the end of next week. Does anyone have any previous experience who can help with my choice. There are a lot to choose from and it is a little confusing. Probably want a 2 or 3 night cruise for me and my husband. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi Folks, Im going to be chartering a bareboat later this year and I wanted to find out how good the snorkelling around the whitsundays really is. The charter companys all say its great, but then again they would hey. I know the inner islands typically have rather average reefs. Are there any good spots to know about? Thanks, Ad
hi, I am looking to go on a tour whereby I can see the whitsundays and the great barrier reef, all the ones i've seen so far include the outer barrier reef, is it worth doing a seperate day trip to see the barrier reef or the ones that they are offering? I am travelling between late october amd mid november thanks
I am visiting the Whitsundays in December and am considering staying for 5 nights on Brampton island followed by a couple of nights on a boat sailing and scuba diving around the whitsundays. My husband and I are very keen scuba divers and love water sports. I have read mixed reviews about Brampton Island and I was wondering if anyone has any experience they could share with me about Brampton Island, or if they could recommend places to stay in Whitsundays.
Hiya, I am heading to Sydney for 2 weeks to hang out with some relatives. However, I would like to explore other parts of Australia. One area that was highly recommended to me was the Whitsunday Islands. Does anybody out there have any tips/suggestions for a solo traveler? I'm open to any and all suggestions! Thank you in advance for your help! Best, Eric
Hi, I am 40 and my mum is 73. I want to go to the Whitsundays sometime this year and I will take my mum away with me. I am a business woman and have had an insanely busy year (or ten), and all I want to do is absolutely nothing. My idea of a great holiday is lying in and beside the pool with multiple cocktails for 7 days. We have been to Daydream Island before and really loved it. Would this be the best place for us or does anyone have any other islands they can recommend. I really want somewhere with a pool bar and somewhere where everything is quick and easy to get to. Also, considering I want to spend most of my time in the pool, which would be the earliest month that I could go between June and December where this would be suitable. I don't want to freeze my butt off. Thanks, Heather
Hi! We are three girls that are travelling the Whisundays around christmas 2008. Does anyone know if we should have everything booked (i.e. accomodation and sailing trips) before we arrive? We are a bit worried that everything will be booked out if you do not book before we arrive. Thanks for your help.-)
Hi there- after a rather trying holiday with our 3 and a bit year old son recently, it has occurred to us that we should really take him to a resort with a kids club, as one of his main complaints while we were in Noosa was that he was missing his friends back home. So- the kids club, although not his usual friends, would at least keep him amused- he has no trouble making new friends either, so during school holidays, there would be many diversions I suspect. I've been looking at Dunk, Daydream and Hamilton- perhaps Hayman. Does anyone have any experience of the kids clubs at these places, and in general are they as family friendly as they advertise themselves? Our budget is probably on the higher side of average, but certainly not unlimited (so of the four above, Hayman might be just a little out of our range). Of course we would like to have some fun as well, but it's more about keeping the lad entertained. Thanks, m
Just wondering, what the weather is like in early December? Is it an expensive time to book accomodation and when do school hol's start? Just got an email from Virgin Blue with some cheap flights... Thanks guys Betty
My girlfriend and I recently sailed the Whitsundays for a week at the end of January on a bareboat yacht. Loved the place! Warm water, turtles, dolphins, not that crowded, good diving, lovely islands and beaches. Can anyone recommend another place in the world that is a great sailing playground with good diving and warm water/weather like this? I want to book another holiday, but going back to the Whitsundays might not be that creative of me...! We're UK based.
My boyfriend and I have just book some cheap flights up to the Whitsundays for 5 nights in March. I was wondering where people would suggest we stay – is it better to go out to the islands or stay on the mainland around Airlie beach? I’ve looked up many of the hotels/resorts and they seem either expensive or they don’t get great reviews! ... I’m unconvinced by being stuck with resort food as well! (we probably would spend up to200 a night, maybe a bit more). Also I wanted to ask if there was anything in particular you’d recommend doing whilst we’re there! Thanks! :o)
Hi, Me, my girlfriend and my dad are travelling from Cairns to Sydney by car for 3 weeks and going sailing in Whitsundays would be so nice. I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on what boat to take? We don't want a party boat because my dad is coming with us but we're on a pretty tight budget so a cheap boat would be to prefer. Cheers, Tomas
Hi, I will be arriving Airlie Beach Fri and staying Until Mon (FEB), can anyone recommend a bareboat charter company that does 3 days hires. We are a couple so don't need anything big. Just want to get a feel for bareboat sailing. Thanks
Can anyone advise which month is better to book for sailing & snorkelling - we would like to take a miss on the jellyfish or cyclones or extremely wet weather? Also, would we have to wear the special suits while swimming off islands & barrier reef in late Feb or late March? Thanks Lori
What is the weather like in the Whitsundays in June/July? Is the water warm enough for swimming? | http://forum.virtualtourist.com/Whitsunday_Islands-1868000-12/forum.html | 2013-05-18T11:03:48 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Warranty with vodafone after unlock
Hi Guys
Can someone confirm what your policy would be on warranty should i choice to unlock my bootloader using the htcdev official method. HTC states doing this will void some of your warranty do you have the same stance on this. As i have a requirement to run a number of official android apps from the playstore which dont work as HTC have locked the bootloader. I find it unacceptable that i have to waiver my warranty on a device just so i can use standard android apps. Im actually close to thinking this device was sold unfit for purpose if im unable to run the required apps i purchased this phone for.
Thanks
Gavin

Failure of the customer to follow the instructions properly as per the manual. Failure to upgrade the software as per procedures outlined in network operator’s web site. Downloading ilegal or incompatible software to the handset.
The handset is fit for purpose as it does not require any of the software you have mentioned to run

Re: Warranty with vodafone after unlock
Hi Guys
This is not correct with my HTC Desire i had the ability to run these apps and kept my warranty in tact this is proven by the fact i sent in my old HTC Desire with a cyanogenmod rom on it and repairs were carried out and sent back with the same ROM in place. This was a hardware fault that was no way caused by the changing of the software. I purchased the phone for various reasons including the ability to run these selected apps just because the phone has android doesnt mean its fit for purpose. I could have android on there without and have an issue making calls as it runs android is that still fit for purpose being that its a phone?????
22-05-2012 03:29 PM
Re: Warranty with vodafone after unlock
Those apps require a non-standard version of the HTC ROM and, as such, it's technically void of a warranty
Go read the quite lengthy threads on XDA and you'll see the issues people are having with the One X with regards to getting HTC to honour the warranty on a One X with an unlocked bootloader

Only problem I see is the proper lookout that you are required to maintain at all times. Might be a way to improve this by moving the steerage to the upper deck as they did in the middle age.
Apart from that - highly cool (although not for me ...).
Nevertheless I have my doubts that the cabin walls were reinforced sufficiently to accept solid water ... .
How much ballast does this design carry? Is the ballast internal or external? I can see that it will go downwind well, but how about close hauled and tacking? Seems to be designed for following the tradewinds. First guy who takes one of these new designs accross the Atlantic will get a bottle of Jever, Astra, Becks or Flensburger from me.

Surely the fattest part of the foil should lead and the taper should be aft.

Where DO you guys find these photos??? Wonderful!
As I recall the line is something likea dis:
"Please remove your fenders when underweigh - otherwise it makes us doubt your intentions."

When I was in Miami in 1987 there were a bunch of similar craft mored off Dinner Key near Coconut Grove; one had an Airstream atop a raft made of cast off styrofoam and beer kegs. Ever hear of Captain Nutrino? There was a recent New Yorker article about him.
I'm impressed that a 14fter has its own red spa.
As for keeping a lookout - just look in the back window and out the front one.
I could live there. Call me trailer trash.
I like they've put the buggy down low, unlike Gary's. The red couch will go, fairly quickly. LOL.
Hey, the couch is one of the best parts! Or would that be "rear self-draining cockpit"??
I'd LOVE to be a fly on the wall at the DMV when/if one of these was registered as a watercraft.

Hi all,
I have successfully connected a GPS to a Diecimila board, on the Rx and the Tw pins.
Since the baud rate of my GPS is 115200, I can't use the SoftwareSerial library (limited to 9600 bps). So I am stuck to the Rx and Tx pins, which is not an issue on my Diecimila.
I want to migrate my application on a Boarduino, for cost and weight saving, but the two Rx and Tx pins don't seem to have exactly the same behavior : I can't monitor the serial port with the GPS connected.
Are you aware of that ?
Any workaround ?

Hi
I receive the error in the title bar as a result of the following code but I can't see what I'm doing wrong:

........... etc
Thew line where the error occurs is <cfset stagecol..
Thanks in advance for any advice
Dave
1. Are you using cftry/catch in our component? In some CF verison (at least), var scoped variables couldn't be referenced in cfcatch block.
2. What is your function returning? Is it a structure? Try removing the returntype attribute of the function.
3. Double check for overlapping variable names - try to change your variable names in the function and check if that helps.
And P.S. <cfset stagecol. is better and clearer written as <cfset stagecol.colour1 = oncolour>
Never use pound signs until you're outputting something, or dynamically evaluating a variable name.
-Fernis
<cfset var
Look more closely at that line of code.
What's wrong with it?

<cfset var
Those cannot be seen by the human eye!
...Which is exactly why the habit of using extra "#quotes#" is shooting oneself in the leg.

Thank you both so much for your help and "I promise I'll never do that again"........

Deactivating RealPlayer Browser Plugin as described didn't help. I highly doubt it's the RealPlayer Plugin (which is running fine since ages btw), because all is running fine on a Windows XP machine were the identical RealPlayer Plugin is installed.
I rather think it might be an incompability of the Flash Plugin and protected mode under Win 7 64bit, because afaik it's running with Win 7 32bit.
Protected Mode is not available on XP, which is why you aren't seeing the problem occur with that operating system.
I'm branching this to a new discussion as the issue you're experiencing is unrelated to the conversation around Protected Mode and Firefox 13.
Please check out the Video troubleshooting guide here:
If you continue to experience issues, I'm very interested in following up and collecting additional diagnostic information from you.
Either way, please let us know what happens.
Thanks!

But is protected mode the reason? Remember, disabling protected mode as discribed didn't help. So I still think, it's not too unlikely it's an incompatibility of the latest flash version with Win 7 64bit.
What exactly are you experiencing? What browser are you using?
Sorry if you've already stated this, but I don't see it in the first post on this thread.
My original posting with all informations you are asking is in another thread. For what ever reason parts of the original thread have been moved to this new thread now and the original thread has been locked.
I'm using Firefox 13, Win 7 64bit.
Today I've updated to Firefox 13.0.1, but other than announced it didn't help.
Disabling protected mode via mms.cfg didn't help.
Disabling RealPlayer plugin helps, but I don't wan't to disable this plugin for a longer time than just temporary.
The informations I got during the last three days are confusing. As far as I can see, the real reason for flash crashing in FF 13 hasn't been found yet. It's said some video related plugins like RealPlayer cause the problem, some say it's actually flash, and also Firefox itself could be the problem, which is the reason for launching the 13.0.1 update. We, the users, feel frustrated meanwhile as it seems the involved companies play some kind of recrimination ping pong rather than talking to each other and soving the problem.
However, it can't be the solution that users have to disable competitors plugins like RealPlayer or DownloadHelper to get a new flash version running that has apparently caused the problem by introducing the protected mode not fully tested in non-exotic environments like FF 13 / Win 7 64bit. So imho end-users are again as far too often before the real beta testers :-(
I branched this conversation because there was confusion on our part about whether you were using Windows XP or Windows 7, and the thread was noisy to the point that it was no longer useful.
There are multiple issues in-play that didn't show up during the months of public and private pre-releases that we conducted.
The firefox 13.0.1 update addresses the silent crash on shutdown.
The issue where Flash content no longer loads, and Youtube content no longer plays is an incompatibility with RealPlayer Browser Record. If you're curious about the gory details, the various Mozilla bugs on this topic have them:.
The workaround to this issue is going to require you to disable Real Player Browser Recording. You can still watch content that requires RealPlayer using this method. want to do that, and don't need the features offered by Flash Player 11.3, you can always roll back to Flash Player 10.3. We maintain a version of Flash Player 10 for Enterprise customers, which exposes them to the least amount of change, while keeping them up-to-date with security fixes.
We're currently investigating a stability issue on our end, and continue to work closely with Mozilla on a plan to correct it and get a fix out as quickly and painlessly as possible.
At this point, I'm assuming that you're unstuck, and just unhappy that RealPlayer Browser Record no longer works. Is there anything else that we can help you with?

I branched this conversation because there was confusion on our part about whether you were using Windows XP or Windows 7, and the thread was noisy to the point that it was no longer useful.
Regading the version I'm using: I'd posted the details about OS, Browser and Flash versions in my starting posting in that thread. So I'm not sure what was unclear regarding the OS!? It's still Win 7 64bit. I just mentioned that I'm using XP on another machine where the problem doesn't appear.

The issue where Flash content no longer loads, and Youtube content no longer plays is an incompatibility with RealPlayer Browser Record. If you're curious about the gory details, the various Mozilla bugs on this topic have them:.
I'd a look into this and all I can say is, that the supposed RealPlayer incompatabiliy didn't happen for me until I update Flash to 11.3.300.257. After re-installing the previous Flash version all is fine, so I'm amazed how the RealPlayer should be the one that crashes FF, although it's working fine on my machine as long as Flash 11.3.300.257 isn't installed. Even if disabling protect mode. So from my point of view, it seems to be this Flash plugin rather than any other plugin that causes the issues.
Thank you for your feedback.

This seems like a silly question, but there appears to be no corner grabber to resize my document windows. Is this a new "feature" or am I missing something.
Are you talking about the textured triangle that used to appear in the lower right corner?
I'm running Fireworks CS5/6 on Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard), and that corner grabber no longer exists. In its place, you simply hover over an edge or a corner and look for the cursor to change to double-sided arrow. I'm not sure why this change was made. It does sort of offer more surface area for interactivity (at the edges); however, if two windows are right next to each other (like the document window and the panels), there's no way to tell which is about to be resized until afterwards.
Yes, that's exactly it. Thank you very much that does work. I've never been able to do that on a Mac before and didn't even think of trying it, was beginning to think my install was corrupt or something.

Can a muse subscriber reconfigure the forms widgets to something other than BC?
Forms on the web require two pieces: The form that users input data in to, and information on how to process and what to do with the form data. Muse outputs standard HTML forms that are configured to work with Business Catalyst so that you can take advantage of some of the cool features they have to offer like the CRM (Customer Relationship Manager) database. It will manage and handle the processing and storage of the data for you and with a Web Marketing plan you will be able to access and store additional information on these contact requests with ease.
That said, if you are not hosting your site on BC, as I said Muse outputs a standard HTML form. After exporting the code, you can modify the form element that we output to point to whatever processing code you have set up to handle the data. As for processing the form on the server, that is something that will change based on your environment and we won't really be able to assist in that portion. But the short answer is, yes. Since the form is just a standard form, you could modify the exported HTML to point to a different service of your choosing.
Do note that, by default, we display a warning when a user tries to submit a form saying that this form hasn't been configured to work. When you reconfigure your form, you'll want to remove this code so users don't get this message.
Hi Andrew,
Could you make a guide how to make the form work without Bc, currently exported my website to DW
Unfortunately I'm not able to do so. The process will vary based on the configurations of your host, what you want to do with the data, and what software is used on the server. There would be no way for us to create a helpful guide on how to modify your form after it has been created in Muse.
Form processing, depending on the above, can be a non-trivial task. There are guides out there that offer more targetted help based on the programming language you would need to code the form processing in, what you wanted to do with it, and on helping secure your form to prevent exploitation and the hacking of your server. Note though that these will be code heavy, and we can't recommend any in particular. We highly recommend the use of BC so that we can take care of the code for you, but if you are unable to do so for one reason or another, you should know that this task isn't for the faint of heart when it comes to coding.
An alternative is still the use of services like Adobe FormsCentral, JotForm or Wufoo which will handle the form processing as well.
Well I just want to have a basic contact form whitch send me a E-mail with what the client have asked. What is the best option for that?
Added: the Jotform works! jeej
I tried Jot-Form. It worked beautifully! Looks like I don't have to quit using it if I don't pay a subscription either. Thank you so much for the suggestion! I have it bookmarked!
Is there a way to have my client post a monthly newsletter to the original page? The other choice would be a link to download a PDF, but that isn't working either. Let me know here - what can I do?
Andrew: I have a simple web site and want to have a contact us form with Captcha for security. Looking at the Business Catalyst price list, it appears you cannot get this feature without paying for a Web Marketing level account- vast overkill for this little site. Am I wrong?
webBasics hosting ($5.99/month) includes web forms (including captcha support). It would be helpful to know what web page(s) led you to believe otherwise, so I can recommend they be modified.
Web Marketing adds E-mail marketing and Customer Response Management functionality (among other things).
With a webBasics hosting plan form submissions are sent to one (or more) e-mail addresses for the business owner to process however they choose. No access to the integrated database and e-mail marketing functionality in Business Catalyst is provided.
Zak: here is the price grid that seems to indicate that reply forms with Captcha are not available for the lower end plans. I am really enthused by Muse, but having a hard time blundering through such a mountain of forum questions to get simple things resolved. I do zero code, but love doing in Creative Suite. I must say that, while your progress is impressive, Adobe Customer support seems needlessly complex. I use GoDaddy, and they make it very easy. ml
Thank you. This page is confusing. I've pinged the Business Catalyst team to see if we can get it clarified.
What it's referring to is the fact CAPTCHA are only available in some other features of Business Catalyst when using a higher level hosting plan, but I completely agree that how it appears now implies CAPTCHA is not available with forms in a webBasics plan. That is not the case. Forms, including CAPTCHA, are part of a webBasics plan.
I took the plunge and tried zipform, which worked OK- does not look like the rest of my muse site, but works with my existing hosting plan. I would like to add that I find it very hard to find information about how to get a muse site hosted by Business Catalyst. It is easy to get it 'live' within the BC URL, but when I am ready to launch it under its own URL and continue with BC hosting, how do I do that? Is that part of my Creative Cloud, or not? The info is probably there somewhere, but I can't find it.
Thanks, and keep up the great work. You are on to something huge with Muse, and you will probably have to endure a mountain of picky complaints like mine to get it right, but when you do get it right, it will be transformational. Best, D
Hello David,
I would like to confirm that Captcha does work with webforms in a lower level hosting plan. The page that you have mentioned is referring to Captcha option which you get under Site settings of the Admin panel of a Business Catalyst website.
This option (under Site settings) is available only in WebMarketting and higher site plans and it allows users to change the version of Captcha (Easy or harder to read) and also allows user to manage other Captcha settings.
Please refer to screenshot below :
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sachin
I have a site configured to work with BC and my own service provider (morrored sites) partly because I don't want the extra BC baggage in the address box. That being said, if I set up a simple email reply form in the site, will the form on my private site not simply direct the information to my BC site for a response?
Herb
HPaynter: I used Jotform to get a quick Captcha-enabled form, which is hosted outside of BC. Works fine.You can specify where responses are to be directed. Graphics are not as easily customized as in Muse, however.
Do I understand that Jotform is subscription based? Does this mean that creating a form is tethered to their servers and is only operable as long as the subscription is live? I'm looking for a closed-loop form generator that simply culls data and reports that data back to me via email. I have other tools for email campaigns etc, I just need a basic reply form.
Herb
HPaynter,
"because I don't want the extra BC baggage in the address box"
Any website can (and usually does) have multiple domain names (both and xyz.com, for example). Once a site on Business Catalyst is upgraded either by redeeming one of the webBasics plans included with a subscription to Muse or Creative Cloud, or by upgrading to a paid hosting plan, additional domain names can be added to the site and thus your site visitors will use and see whatever domain name you've purchased and assigned to your site as the default domain name (and not the xyz.businesscatalyst.com domain name).
Form processing requires code running on the server. At a minimum this code accepts the form data from your web page form, reformats it and sends you an e-mail containing the form content using a mailer program that must also be properly configured and running on the server.
Muse forms are configured to work with the server side form processing provided by Business Catalyst. If the web page containing the form is served by Business Catalyst then the form will work. If the form is served by your hosting provider, the form won't work without developer changes to both the Muse output and the configuration of your hosting.
HP: Jotform is a fremium model; you can use it free just by registering your email, get a username, then create your form on line. When done, it gives you a link to the code; you can either cut and paste the URL, and paste that into Muse as a linked object, or you can capture the actual code and put that in. I don't do code, so I did the former. The cool thing about it is, they give you the option to direct the user back to your Muse site, wherever it resides. So, although they go to a different URL to fill in the form, when they hit "send" it can return them to your site.. I imagine that Muse will eventually either replicate this functionality within Muse, or buy Jotform. visit my site to see how a muse site with a jotform reply form works-
Hope this helps!
upgraded either by redeeming one of the webBasics plans included with a subscription to Muse or Creative Cloud
Zak: this is where I am stuck. I built a site in Muse, and was ready to have it hosted as part of my creative cloud subscription, but the URL I want to use is currently hosted elsewhere. I could not find any direction on how get my domain transferred to BC and "convert" my site to BC hosting. Can you point me toward a resource on how to do this? Thanks, David (which contrary to the name is exclusively Muse information).
Look at the section "Launching a Muse site to push it live".
Zak,
Help me understand something please. I have both a paid subscription and a Creative Cloud -CS6 account. I also own the domain name Imageprep.net. When I publish my Muse material through BC it gets published as "" I just want my readers to go to my imageprep site directly.
At the moment all I know how to do is upload the Muse files to my existing website "Imageprep.net" to avoid the businesscatalyst verbiage. Where have I gone wrong?
That is covered in the second part of the Tutorial Zak mentioned i.e.
Read through below specific sections:
For adding your domain "Imageprep.net" to your published site "imageprep.businesscatalyst.com", read -
For setting up DNS correctly at your registrar's end, read -
If imageprep.net is a current operating site under a web hosting company, what is the procedure to switch? I have active email accounts with the other provider that I don't want to lose or confuse. Do I simply advise my current hosting company to... what? shut down the site? I don't know how this works.
Thanks,
Herb
If you want to transfer just the hosting to Business Catalyst and keep using your existing email services, then you can add your domain "imageprep.net" to your site "imageprep.businesscatalyst.com" as using External DNS services (rather than This Service).
You would also need to add an A-record (enabling imageprep.net to point to your BC site's IP address i.e. 192.150.2.140) at your DNS service provider's end (usually your registrar, if you have not redelegated to your current hosting provider).
For more information read this document: ml Section titled: Point externally hosted domains to your Business Catalyst site
This would leave your emails untouched and only direct the traffic for your website to the site hosted on BC servers.
It's good to know that the Muse forms widget can be modified to work with other scripts, however, this still presents a problem. The modifications need to be done in another program and not in Muse, so that if I have to make adjustments to a site and then hit command-E to export the site to html, the form data gets overwritten by what's in the Muse file, thereby requiring repair each time.
What is needed is a dedicated non-BC forms widget that is modifiable within Muse. CoffeeCup Software's Web Form Builder is an excellent example of making a forms tool that will work on most servers. WFB requires that the following are installed on the server: PHP 5.3 or higher, Curl Extension and PHP Sessions. This is easy to set up by simply calling your hosting company and telling them to add this to your server or migrate you to a server with those specifications. WFB's forms work amazingly well on all Mac browsers I tested (Safari, Opera, Chrome and Firefox), and apparently also work on all current Windows browsers, although I haven't personally tested this yet.
The whole purpose of Muse is to create a web development tool that is designer-friendly and fast, without the need for learning all kinds of code. Adobe has done an AMAZING job with Muse that promises to get more capable with every version (natch) by adding the tools designers need to create modern, up to date sites that utilize current web technology. A web forms widget for non-BC servers is ESSENTIAL because not everyone will want to or be able to host client sites on BC, quite possibly a large percentage.
Also, despite the workable "Insert HTML" function, I'd like to be able to access and alter the code on site files witnin Muse before outputting them to HTML. This will allow custom changes that don't require redoing each time AFTER I export the site.
What I did for my forms was create a copy of my Muse site file where I deleted everything except for the page with the forms (there were 2 on one page, and there are none anywhere else on the site). I kept the master, made a copy of it, and took everything out of the master. I then went to the page (titled "reach me", containing two forms, one for questions, and one for a mailing list) and selected everything and grouped it. The grouped item allowed for Muse to give me a width/height of all of the elements together. i took those dimensions and set them as the page defaults on the master i had just wiped out. i set all margins, footers, padding, etc to 0 and made it 1 column. i published the site to catalyst, and then copied the url to my clipboard. opening my site up again (the muse file i made the copy from) i went to PLAN and made a copy of the Reach Me page (as a backup, should something go awry, i called it "Reach Me-old") i opened the original "reach me" (being that all my other pages linked to it and not the copy i had just made) i wiped out all of the forms and content and inserted an html code snippet. i typed:
<style type="text/css">
#frame {overflow-x:none;overflow-y:none;border:0px;};
</style>
<iframe id="frame" src="URL" width="WIDTH" height="HEIGHT" scrolling="no" seamless
* replace URL with the url you copied earlier
*replace width and height with the ones you typed in the b-master (or it might be called "A-Master copy" in your business catalyst site
this worked out just fine for me hope it helps you guys
check it out working:
ilenepricedesign.com (reach me page)
ilenepricedesign-contact.businesscatalyst.com (the page i created an iframe of)
===============
update: there were some issues with it (it worked for the most part, just some visual problems)
i created a copy muse file, deleted all except the page and the master i needed, and uploaded as-is to catalyst. i then fixed all hyperlinks on the master for the copied muse file to link back to original site and then on site linked the menu item for the page to go to the catalyst page. this works perfectly, i dont mind the url changing when everything looks the exact same. to the average user, i think you should be fine.

Hello,
I have a video on a layer with cue points. I would like to have a still fade in over the video at a cue point. I made a movie clip with my still in it on frame one to frame 12. My project is 12 fps. I made a classic tween between the keyframes and adjusted the alpha on the first frame to zero. This did work, but when my video plays it cues to the movie clip and fades from white, which is my project background rather than from the video. Is there a way to adjust or code the movie clip so it will be transparent?
Mark.
convert your still to a vector (use modify/bitmap/trace bitmap) and remove the background. fade that vector.
I appreciate this, I will try this tomarrow. Thank you so much for your help.
Mark.
I tried to do this, when I went to modify/trace/ the trace bitmap was not available. I saved this as a png. Do I need to save it as something else?
Thanks again,
Mark.
if you import a bitmap into flash (including a png), drag it to the stage, make sure it's selected and click modify/trace/trace bitmap.
I made a movie clip, imported a png to the stage on frame 1. Went to fram 12 made a keyframe and selected both frame and made a tween. Selected the first frame and clicked on it, went to properties and selected the alpha channel and reduced it to 0. When I select modify, then bitmap, it give no highlighted way to go, there is nothing to select.
I'm sorry I'm not getting this, I removed the tween and started over. I imported my png to the first frame. I went to modify/trace bitmap and it gave me these options,
color threshold: 100
minimum area: 8 pixels
curve fit: normal
corner threshold: normal.
I'm sorry, but what do I do? I have changed the threshold to 0. but it didn't really seem to do much, same with teh minimum area. The curve fit, and the corner threshold don't have any mention of converting to a vector.
Mark.
1. drag your png to the stage.
2. while it's still selected click modify/bitmap/trace bitmap.
3. experment with the trace bitmap settings panel. the smaller the min ara, tighter the fit and lower the corner threshold, the higher the resulting vector's fidelity and the larger the size of your swf. click ok and your png bitmap has been converted to a vector.
4. right click the background and click cut. you may need to do that more than once if the background does not have a uniform color.
5. convert the vector to a movieclip and assign a library symbol name (eg, vectorized png).
6. double click the vectorized symbol in the library so you are editing it.
7. add a keyframe on frame 12.
8. select everything on frame 1 and assign it an alpha of 0.
9. create a tween.

I am trying to load the Illustrator SDK sample FreeGridUI. In the documentation supplied by adobe, it says:
1. In the IDE, choose File > Import > Flash Builder > Flash Builder Project.
2. Select "Project folder" and browse to SDK_root\samplecode\FreeGridUI.
3. Click Finish to import the project.
4. Build the project.
When I do that I get an error message that says:
"Could not find project's extension manifest file. Make sure the manifest exists at .staged-extension/CSXS/manifest.xml."
But as you can see from the attached screen shot, the manifest is in that exact location.
Also when I edit the manifest in the "bundle manifest editor" and then close the manifest tab, is asks me if I want to save the manifest. When I choose yes and re-open the manifest... none of my changes have been saved.
Anybody got any ideas?

Okay,
I feel stupid, but I also feel like adobe should feel stupid too. Turns out I missed the "." at the beginning of the ".staged-extension" path. But adobe put that folder in their sample without the "." in front. So much for a "working sample." Anyway, I dropped into terminal and did a "mv staged-exnestion .staged-extension" and now all is well. Hope that helps someone. Sorry for crying wolf.

Apologies for the confusion Bill. According to the AI SDK team, this issue will be fixed in future releases. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

ARM7TDMI - Exceptions
#1
Posted 02 June 2011 - 10:25 AM
I have a doubt in ARM7TDMI exception,
Once exception (FIQ, IRQ, or Data Abort, Pre-fetch Abort) occured, then regardless of the previouse mode (ARM or THUMB) the lr value will be as follows
FIQ -> PC+4 , where PC is the next instruction to be executed after return frm exception
IRQ -> PC+4, where PC is the next instruction to be executed after return frm exception
Data Abrt -> PC+8, where PC is the instruction which got aborted
PreFetch -> PC + 4 , where where PC is the prefetched instruction.
Why this is same for both ARM and Thumb mode?
Can anyone explain?

Posted 02 June 2011 - 02:09 PM
It makes writing exception handlers which don't care about the ARM/Thumb state of the interrupt code very easy.

Unfortunately tonight I had to use the PRP for my XBox 360. Everything went smooth and I was happy with the service. However, now I'm aware that my new console (I upgrade to an Elite) has a different kind of protection, and I'm a bit annoyed. My question is:
What does the "Black Tie" protection give me? The answer seems like not much, but maybe I'm missing something. If I have a problem during the 1 year Microsoft warranty...they will mail the box to Microsoft for me. Which I could do myself. If it's past the one year and it's *not* the RRoD they will...mail the box to Microsoft, but I won't have to pay the repair fee. If it is the RRoD they will do nothing.
So what exactly did I just pay $60 for?
04-05-2009 09:40 PM
I went today to clarify and it would seem the answer is "not much". Oh, wow, they'll take care of all the paperwork for mailing back to Microsoft. Yeah, like that's hard. The difference between taking it to Best Buy and taking it to the UPS store with a prepaid label is incredibly minimal. Oh, and they don't cover RRoD at all, but they'll still mail it for you.
I think I'll get my $60 back.

Good afternoon, Gurus!
I am in my first year of Computer Science classes, and the first day into class my Foundations of CS prof recommended becoming familiar with a Linux system. I was already considering the purchase of a netbook, as my current laptop is very bulky and a pain to transport in between classes. Would it be functional to purchase a Linux based netbook, such as the ASUS X201E that comes preloaded with Ubuntu? I wouldn't use it much for C++ as our department prefers using Microsoft Visual Studio, but I could use it for note-taking, web browsing, email and to learn Java. Does anyone have any useful comments or incites that could be useful to me? Any suggestions about purchasing a netbook?
Side note - would it be possible to set up a netbook like the ASUS for dual boot mode Linux/Windows?

He expected the Koran Mohammad Koran Koran 25 times while the name of "Mohammed"(Peace Be Upon Him) was mentioned only 4 times, so he became more confused. He started reading the Koran more thoroughly hoping to find a mistake but he was shocked when he read a great verse which is verse number 82 in Surat Al-Nisa'a(Women) that says: “Do they not consider the Koran uranuran, on the contrary, tells you that it has no mistakes and asks you to try to find one and you won’t find any. Another verse that Dr Miller reflected on for a long time is the verse number 30 in Surat “Al-Anbiya’a” Mohammed: “Mohammed is saying that I will not become a Muslim and that I will go to the hell fire, but I’m telling you now that I want to convert to Islam and become a Muslim. What do you think about Mohammed 1 minute! But this did not happen because those are not the words of Mohammed uran)!”(surat Al-Masad). Dr Miller says about a verse that amazed him: one of the miracles in the Quran is challenging the future with things that humans cannot predict and to which the “Falsification Test” applies, this test consists of looking for mistakes until the thing that is being tested is proved to be right. For example, let’s see what the Quran said about the relation between Muslims and Jews. Quranuran says that we are your enemies, the Quran-84) This verse applies to Dr Miller as he was a Christian but when he knew the truth, he believed and converted to Islam and became a herald. May Allah support him. Dr Miller says about the unique style of the Quran that he finds wonderful: no doubt there is something unique and amazing in Quran that is not present anywhere else, as the Quran)”(3: 44). “Such are some of the stories of the Unseen, which We have revealed unto thee: before this, neither thou nor thy People knew them. So persevere patiently: for the End is for those who are righteous”(11: 49). “Such is one of the stories of what happened unseen, which We reveal by inspiration unto thee: nor was thou (present) with them when they concerted their plans together in the process of weaving their plots”(12: 102) Dr Miller continues: “no other holy book uses this style, all the other books consist of information that tells you where this information came from. For example, when the (distorted) holy bible talks about the stories of the ancient nations, it tells you that a this king lived in a this place and a that leader fought in that battle, and that a certain person had a number of kids and their names are…. But this book (distorted Bible) always tells you that if you want to know more, you can read a certain book since that information came from that book”. Dr Garry Miller continues: “this is in contrary to the Quran Mohammed (PBUH) nor by his people at that time, and despite that, they never said: we know this and it is not new, and they did not say: we know where Mohammed”. May Allah reward Dr Miller for this nice reflection on the Book of Allah Back to top DianaJoined: 16 Jan 2003Posts: 494Location: Guam, USA Posted: Sat Sep 06, 2003 11:39 pm Post subject: Distorted Holy Bible? If Dr. Gary Miller believes that there are no disputes and no mistakes in the Quran, then why are there many different sects among Islam (just like the Christians)? For example, you have Sunni Islam and Shi'ite Islam. Why are there Sunni Muslims and Shi'ite muslims who study the same Quran but end up with different doctrines just like the Catholics and the Protestants?

Yes i do he seems good
No i dont and i explained why
Shadow Stalker
Name - Shadow Stalker
Class - Agi - 120 range (melee)
Affiliation - Legion
Attack Weapon - Dark Dagger
Story :
Always hidden in the forests of Newerth the Shadow Stalker
watches his enemies awaiting moments to trow his own
shadow to take them apart. He joined the Legion to avenge his brother
killed by the Helbourne. Now anyone who sees his shadow becomes
stabbed to death not even knowing what hit them.
IF YOU LIKE IT DON'T FORGET TO VOTE !!!
__________________________________________________
__________________________________________________
1st -Shadow Possesion
Shadow Stalker can manipulate shadows and send his shadow at an enemy disabling him and soul linking 2 of them together. Any movement made by Stalker the enemy imitates. And if he or his enemy is hurt the damage is spread to both of them. Lasts 3.5 seconds at all levels.
Level 1 - Shadow Stalker takes 20% damage and an enemy 25%
Level 2 - Shadow Stalker takes 30% damage and an enemy 50%
Level 3 - Shadow Stalker takes 40% damage and an enemy 75%
Level 4 - Shadow Stalker takes 50% damage and an enemy 100%
Mana Cost: 100
Cooldown: 20 seconds
Important: So if shadow possesion is activated if your damaged enemy gets 100% of damage and if enemy is damaged you get 50% of that damage. (if you attack one target the enemy will attack the same target if you attack possesed unit , that unit will attack you if it can)
Dowa not stack with barbed armor!!!!!
__________________________________________________
2nd - Dark Knives
Shadow stalker can trow his Shadow knives at the target enemy he trows 4 knives in a 2 seconds duration channel time trowing each knife every 0.5 second. If the enemy goes out of 600 range channel is broken.
Level 1 - Each knife deals 35 damage
Level 2 - Each knife deals 50 damage
Level 3 - Each knife deals 65 damage
Level 4 - Each knife deals 80 damage
Mana Cost: 110
Cooldown: 15 seconds
__________________________________________________
3rd - Shadow Dagger
Every hit that Shadow Stalker makes steals the part of an opponents soul and deals bonus damage with each hit made. Buff lasts 4 seconds
Level 1 - Each subsequent attack deals 5 bonus damage
Level 2 - Each subsequent attack deals 10 bonus damage
Level 3 - Each subsequent attack deals 15 bonus damage
Level 4 - Each subsequent attack deals 20 bonus damage
Important: Ability is passive. ( like ursa ability from dota stacks with Dark Knives and Ultimate)
__________________________________________________
Ultimate - Shadow Grip
Shadow stalker can make a target suffer imense pain over time. He channels the ability for 1 second and a shadow becomes attached to him and his enemy.In the first second the shadow arm comes and disables the target, and then the shadow arms come and hit the target 10 times each dealing severe damage. If he moves 750 range, gets damaged, stunned or disabled the link is destroyed.
Level 1 - Each shadow strike deals 30 damage and first shadow grips the feet (immobilised)
Level 2 - Each shadow strike deals 40 damage and first shadow grips the feet and arms (immobilised and cant attack)
Level 3 - Each shadow strike deals 50 damage and first shadow grips the feet arms and mouth (immobilised, cant attack and silenced)
Mana Cost: 200/250/300
Cooldown: 150/140/130 seconds
Explanation : In the first seconds shadow disables the target then in 2nd second 1 shadow arms comes and deals dmg, in 3rd second 2 shadow arms come and deal dmg, in 4th second 3 shadow arms come and deal dmg, in 5th seconds 4 shadow arms come and deal damage = 10 attacks

Good concept, HoN needs an Ursa to negate Scout.
Only problems I see is that the knife throwing skill shouldn't be channeled but more like Forsaken Archer's Ult, but that is just my opinion, seems like it would make more sense in functionality and balance the hero more between single target and AoE damage.
Also the damage counters for each level of the Shadow Dagger skill may have to be lowered because unlike Ursa (who was a Strength hero), this one would be Agility and that would lead to major imbalances as the game progresses and the player accumulates agility items.
Other than that I'm all for it.

I do not think it is a good idea , if the first skill stacks with the damage return item (i do not remember the name) , that makes the enemy get 200 % damage return ...

Strange question maybe, but I'm considering running single channel RAM on my new setup (z68 + 3570k). Reason being that I've got 3x 2GB DDR3 1600 left over from my old i7 920 setup. So my choices are:-
1) Run 2x2GB dual channel = 4GB total
2) Run 3x2GB single channel = 6GB total
3) Buy either a 4th 2GB DIMM or maybe 2x4GB and run a total of 12GB at full speed.
Option 3) is obviously better but is too expensive for now.
Now I know from the i7 920 days that triple channel RAM is no better in the real world. So will the same hold true that while I'll only get half the RAM bandwidth will I actually notice a performance drop using real programs rather than benchmarks? | http://forums.hexus.net/motherboards/248213-running-single-channel-ram-z68-motherboard.html | 2013-05-18T10:13:28 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Given that Mint is free free free, and mighty good good good, maybe if everyone using this wonderful operating system put a penny in a jar every time they used Mint, then sent their pennies to Mint, it would help Mint grow, and get even better better better in time. If ten million people sent in their 50 pennies each, how many Mint dollars would that be?
How many people run Mint now?
Maybe if Mint had an automatic counter of how many times users used Mint globally, so users would know how many pennies they should donate to the Mint project. Most people need a little push to do good things for others. Maybe this is just enough push to make average people want to donate to this good cause.
All you need to do is give people their reason to do something, and they'll do it. | http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=152&t=37800&p=590963 | 2013-05-18T10:55:51 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
I installed Mint 13 Cinnamon 64bit using Mint4Win on a Win Vista 64bit OS and Im have a weird problem. After a reboot ANY & ALL changes I made are gone and the install reverts to the default. I mean everything. Bookmarks/Folders in Firefox, System setting changes, New software installed such as Chromium browser, Minitube and others, Walpapers, clock settings ...everything is gone after I reboot. Ive been using Mint since version 9 and have never had these problerms. I know they sound really strange but it has happened four times now.
Has anyone else seen this problem? I know it sounds crazy but it is happening.
Any help is appreciated.
BTW I love the new release.

I dont have to say that I am a newbie, you will know it immediately
First: The grub is working without any problem, but I have the blue menu with text. In the Mint page, shows a nice image as Grub (With a time counter and the mint logo). What can I do to have it also?
Second: The image when I have to put my user name and password is completely screwed. It is very big resolution and my monitor cant show it well. I just put my user and pass by memory
Is there a way to solve it?

Im seeing the movie of The Woman in Black next week and if the trailers are anything to go by it should be a treat. Hell House was one of those books i always meant to read but never got round to it so it will be an horrific February

Seems to be the hot topic of the moment ANGELES - Andrea Bargnani has heard the trade rumours. He knows he has been targeted in the media and by the public for much of what ails the Raptors.
And all of it is having zero effect on him. In fact, he even understands it.
“No, of course it doesn’t affect me, but I think it does make sense on this team,” he said. “Who else would you blame? I don’t really know what you want me to answer.”
Even the trade rumours, the kind that keep popping up, the kind that can mess with a player’s head aren’t having any impact on him.
“Of course I hear the trade rumours,” he said. “But trades are part of the job. Since the first day I joined this team seven years ago, I knew I could be traded. That’s the reality. From Day 1 you know that can happen at any time.”
In Bargnani’s almost Spock-like logical world, there is no point in letting something that has always been a distinct possibility affect him one way or the other, and there’s certainly no point in getting oneself prepared for such an eventuality.
.
“Maybe you have more chance of being traded when you’re playing good, right? Because your value is up ... I don’t panic, honestly. So all these rumours and the talking? What does thinking about rumours get you at the end of the day?”
Bargnani has become the focus of much of the fans’ ire for a number of reasons. Two of the biggest are that his scoring is down and his inability to show emotion which is often misinterpreted as a guy who just doesn’t give a damn. But Bargnani will never be a guy who wears his emotions on his sleeve. Heck, his emotions may never leave the inside of his skin, but he knows this about himself and he’s fine living with whatever consequences that brings.
“I am very able to (stay even-keeled) which is a very good thing from one side but from the other side it’s not such a great thing, so you have two sides. But I’m definitely able to do that.”
Bargnani had one more revelation that came out when he was asked if he thought his team had hit rock bottom with the 30-point loss in Utah on Friday.
“Losing by 30 is different but it’s still losing,” he said. “I mean, for me personally, the loss in Sacramento didn’t feel any better than the Utah loss. It’s still a loss. You could say Utah was the bottom because we lost by 30 but I think we hit the bottom a couple of weeks ago.” | http://forums.prosportsdaily.com/showthread.php?786739-Bargnani-speaks-on-trade-rumors&p=24667587 | 2013-05-18T11:04:24 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Help! I'm not super tech-savvy (just know enough to get into trouble)...my 1TB OneTouch III now makes a horrid clicking sound when powered up, and isn't recognized by Vista anymore. Nneedless to say, we have a ton of files stored there (some backed up, but I admidt I felt fairly safe with the RAID 1 configuration). So how do I get the data back?
The manual is great about telling me how to set up RAID 1, but not how to take advantage of it.
My apologies if this has been asked, I failed miserably at searching this forum.

Public call outs are against forum rules, I hope BSC isn't this guy's actual handle.
I have no idea who BSC is, and I'm EVERYWHERE
Why because I am calling you out for breaking the rules? I don't even know who BSC is.
then dont respond.
There has been plenty of debate over WotS. And there is no consensus of if it is even overpowered or not. Once the new patch nerfs the Vasari I'm sure it will start up again. I'd suggest everyone wait until then.
It is our sworn duty as Forum Trolls to respond in a way that is inflammatory.
WotS is an interesting ability that really doesn't need to be there.
I feel that the developers have decided that sacrificing a planet is worth far more than researching and building a superweapon, which I also feel is rather backwards.

I also must clarify that we usually only troll people who are obviously clueless when it comes to forum rules, or whose OPs are just totally incoherent

Bringing this back to the top.......copied and pasted from a post years ago....posted by Thewildcat
I was at the races the day Mrs. Barabara Ray ran, and got a chance to meet each and every one of owners of her. Which one were you. I even asked if any of the owners resided in Houston, and they looked at me like I was crazy. You asked me the other day, if Vickey Foley and Greg Foley were married. If you owned a piece of this horse, like you said, you would definately know the answer this question. Remember Greg Foley trains for me. I spend a lot of time on this board trying to decide who to listen to and who not to. It's obvious that there are certain people who know there stuff, and that are truthful. ie)qman,bigdadi,justdave, and countless others. I would like to think that my hard earned money would go toward a website like this, with the intention we all could share info and all "beat the man!" Why be dishonest. I spent many early morning hours hung over in college, mucking stalls in the heart of horse country, and have gotten to know a lot of great people in the industry. I'm not questioning your knowledge of handicapping, but claiming to own a piece of a horse with a group of people that I know personally, is absolutely absurd. One would like to think that the info they read on this board is truthful, but I can assure you, that after reading some of your posts, I am starting to figure out who is in this to be honest and helpful and to put in a lot of time, and not to mislead people. I don't post much, since I have only been with Statfox for a short time, but I am starting to figure out who is sincere, and honest, and who is full of ****!!!! You must be in a make believe life, living in a make believe world. I was kind enough to give back a small portion of my appreciation last week with four selections on horses that I own a piece of. My Saturday started off with an automobile accident on the way to Churchill, but my day got better as I watched three of "my" horses perform brilliantly, on TVG. If you have any doubts whether I own them or not, I would be more than glad to fax over to you the foal papers, if you would like. Apparently, after reading some of the other posts on here, I think there are others that question your legitimacy also. Why mislead, when there are obvious straight up, hard working guys, that put in countless hours of handicapping so that we can all benefit. I know that those horses I posted that day, didn't light up the tote-board, but they were my horses, and they did go 3-1. However, if you would have played them in your exotics,as well as straight, as I advised, it would have been a very profitable day for you and everyone else. I think you need to take notice of some of the other legitimate and sincere handicappers, as I mentioned above and stop the dreaming, or maybe statfox administration can some how weed out the nonsense or the flat out actors. This is not directed to any other of the hard working, hard handicapping folks on this board, but I am beginning to find out who's full of **** and who isn't. You need to take notes, as I said from BD,Skeez,JustDave, and last but certainly not least The Qman.... I joined this thing to win money and learn, not to listen to a bunch of BS from a few actors living in a pipedream... Sorry, for the long post, but it's been a bad two or three weeks on here..... Sincerely, The Wildcat......
I will bite. My daughter is sleeping and I am just browsing for a few minutes.
Why did you just put the 1st post of that very lengthy conversation?
Either way, for those that do not know, I gave absolute proof that these accusations were unfounded. I posted the ownership paperwork of the horses in question.
I am only replying because I do not want people to ever get the wrong idea of me or my family. We have been blessed enough to have received so much great help from the people of this board and I do not want that tarnished in any way no matter what I have to do.
As for my current situation, I feel I have given proof. If you have any questions or need more proof I do have it. I did post pictures of all my documents and my home and just about everything I could think of to back what is a truly horrible situation for me and my family. I even went so far as to trust my friends and family the fox den with my home address. I have nothing to hide.
This could have been done in a private message. Settle it there.

UK crime-busters knock hiphop site off the Internet …
Looks like SOCA are doing a fine job of fighting serious crime and protecting the public.
Well...
... they just rounded up a bunch of gangstas!
?
Don't forget to leave them a nice comment in their server log files... (as suggested on slashdot)
or't_need_to_threaten_innocent_visitors_to_this_site_do_you
Feel free to get creative...
Sir
Feel free to get creative...
Done.
ACS Law tried something similar with IP addresses, and the courts were really impressed by that.
FFS they can't even cobble together a single web page without errors. Not very inspiring in what is supposed to be an "elite" police unit.
teehee
I checked out the site just for that purpose, being Dutch myself, my check poisons their results.
Let's all check them out!
I'd like to see them investigate me :)
why can't the rest of the world do what we do? downloading (movies and music) is legal here.
For anyone who wants to leave them a message
Assuming you are running Linux:
Put your message, using only alphanumeric characters and spaces, into a file called socamessage, then run the following command:
cat socamessage | sed -e 's/\s/_/g' | (while read L; do wget -O /dev/null ""; done)
If you have a long message to send, it can be split over several lines.
This will also anonymise, although only through a single proxy.
My own just let them know my displeasure at the Serious Organised Crime Agency threatening to investgate the probably innocent visitors to the site, and asking why they don't have better things to do (like investigating SERIOUS ORGANISED crime)
Communications Act 2003?
I've just realised that it isn't just me that thinks the message displayed is threatening, and I had never been to or heard of the site before today...
Does this mean that the CPS will be prosecuting whoever at SOCA was responsible for the threatening web page? I mean if it works for a twitter joke with no intent then why not this? Or is a threat to enforce legal powers that (I'm told) doesn't exist, exempt it from being threatening?
Priorities in check then
FFS !
SOCA try dealing with scrap metal theft, that's a SERIOUS ORGANISED CRIME PROBLEM !
That, and that every farm, inside a 50 mile radius of my current location, has had some sort of heavy machinery stolen (we're talking tractors and jbc's.. 100k+ items), in the last 8 months.. but crack on guys, go find the software and entermaint pirates.. nevermind that we have 3 or 4 civilain patrols, circling our farms and industrial areas, with not a word from the local cops.... and god help anyone they stop that looks a bit suspicious...
Similarly fuel theft. Just about every transport firm and building site round here has been targeted.
A pair of lads came unstuck one night at a local lorry park though when they got spotted by a driver having a kip in his cab.
I gather they had a pretty sophisticated set up - a transit van full of drums and electric pumps.
According to one of the drivers they got a "severe kicking" and their van trashed. He said they didn't bother involving telling the police as they would have turned up far too late and charged the drivers with assault.
These lads were well known locally for selling cheap diesel, so it probably wouldn't have been the hardest crime to investigate.
Or just...crime, in general?
Instead of matters of civil law
Record Companies Paying Police ?
Seems like Virgin were paying the police:
Sad really, when Robert Peel invented the police force, it was this exact sort of behaviour he was trying to wipe out. Peel's police men were assembled to replace the ad-hoc city guards and watchmen, who were usually beholden to the local magistrate and were generally a bunch of bullyboys and criminals, who would gladly take payment to lock up people for being in some rich idiot's bad books.
Full circle...
Virgin? The biggest distributors of illegal files in the UK? Well, that takes some balls. We realise they actually host pirated files for free distribution, right?
No, Im not substantiating that, but any one who thinks about VM and its services should suss what is insanely wrong here.
Expect a whole load of faked links directing people to that site and getting them on the police records. How are little old ladies going to react when they see that kind of threat when they were looking for pictures of fluffy cats?
Think of the children
And dirty old men looking for fluffy pussy's.
*BANG* A Quantum Leap style flashback to 70's TV and there, right at the forefront of my memory, Molly Sugden's bizarre pastel coloured rinse!
Thanks a lot! It took years to shift the horrendous chimera images of pussies and Molly Sugden, now they're back in a flash!
Well now they have my IP address, hope they have fun with all the ones they are collecting :-)
SOCA? Really?
So what's the reference to pro-music.org doing on the page? Is UK law enforcement in the habit of shilling for special interest groups?
Given the language and that strange reference, I'm thinking that this might be a fake.
One would think so, but it isn't.
SOCA press office confirmed it was genuine.
Yeah, the "SOCA press office confirms genuine" meme is on Slashdot too. So who called them? I'm not seeing an actual *quote* from the SOCA press office in this story, or anywhere else.
This is so obviously a hoax I can't believe people are giving it the time of day. SOCA wittering on about young musician's rights? "Fraud" in the first place (for a link site)? "Recordings stolen from the artists"? Stolen? I thought it was fraud? And then "visit pro-music.org". Please. This is a blatant troll. And boy did it work well.
People of the internet, turn your bullshit filters back on.
Wow, I was wrong, this is real. Apparently SOCA have become internet trolls.
Better take my bullshit filters in for realignment. You think you understand the world and then something like this happens.
I was aware that 'making available', ie uploading it was a naughty (thought it was only a civil offence though), and probably running a website knowingly hosting copyrighted material is probably a bit dubious.
Is downloading a file from a website a criminal offence?
>Is downloading a file from a website a criminal offence?
My understanding is no, but making a copy-right protected file available for others to download is.
Of course others such as Cory Doctorow and Jonathon Coulton or Woodie Guthrie have no issues with their files being spread far and wide since it means more fans.
I wonder how long before the mafRIAA try to get downloading a file to be a crime though - you can bet they want it to be.
ttfn
Woody Guthrie?
I'm sure he hasn't complained about his files being spread far and wide, but I equally doubt he's voiced his support either - what with him having been dead for going on sixty years, and all.
> Is downloading a file from a website a criminal offence?
It can be.
The notorious section 107 of CDPA88 turns copyright infringement into a criminal offence if it is performed in a commercial context.
Quote why SOCA is wasting valuable resources investigating civil infringements is beyond me, though.
Vic.
Re: Woody Guthrie?
While I expect SOCA would want to bang up his boy for what he might have brought into Los Angeles, where their spiritual home would appear to be.
Seriously?
This take-down notice looks like it was written by a 12 year old. No reference even to the statute upon which the site was taken down? Some vague statement about young penniless artists.
What's the betting that the site owner is going to be released and charges dropped after a real judge looks into this? The only thing that surprises me is its not accompanied by a press release to The Sun that the site owner may have child porn stored on his servers.
Really, this just makes SOCA look like amateur stooges hired by the MAFIAA. Not professional at all. But I suppose theres no danger of Tony Blair writing a letter to drop the investigation here, is there?
Tony Blair?
IIRC, when he was PM Tony Blair asked SOCA to kindly please stop investigating bribes allegedly paid to BAE by Saudi princes, in the interests of national security. SOCA complied.
I remember that now.
National security you say, sir.
Of course, sir.
Can I stand up straight now, sir?
I'm concerned that even the fusking police think that the songs were "stolen" from the artists. I'm even more concerned that, despite this apparent grand-scale theft of songs, there is still a metric shit-tonne of mass-produced, lowest common denominator, well, shit being pushed out by "artists" every day. You'd think they'd be locking up their songs in bank safes to prevent this kind of crime happening (coincidently also preventing the crime of these songs being inflicted on the general public).
Title goes where?
"mass-produced, lowest common denominator, well, shit being pushed out by "artists" every day"
Or "Complete & utter Cowell" as I like to call it.
Looks like BS to me
As others have noted, the text looks like it was written by someone quite young. Aside from that, the nameservers never changed, so it's still with rackspace.
Look at every site that the UK/US government have taken over in the past and you'll note that they redirect the nameservers, and THAT is how they "take over" the website.
lets have fun
Everyone hammer the site from as many Ip address you can and confuse the shit out of them.
Odd thought
It's dot com site hosted by go daddy , Could go daddy just say see you when you come to America and serve us ?
SOCA Crime Figures
Last year we solved 1 million crimes. Give us all a bonus please.
One million downloads stopped. = 1 million crimes solved.
Never mind the low level crime like car theft, scrap metal theft, low level fraud, pissed teenagers kicking off, child abuse, wife beating and MegaCorp tax fraud. You know the stuff the that really pisses people off
SOCA because we go after the real criminals.
Web Standards
Well for one they don't follow web standards. The new "SOCA" site is littered with errors, some of them don't even make syntactic sense.
I would think if they are going be posting professional messags about how they can trace you they could at least make a attempt to look professional and do things right.
lol

and too ;)

Straight Outta Suffolk
It's true, there is an epidemic of agricultural machinery theft. Where I live pieces of machinery & fuel is regularly stolen (sometimes from inside secure areas- thieves will cut through locks easily enough). Only at the end of last year our family farm had a load of spare parts taken from a shed to the value of £6000 for scrap. No-one saw anything. The police never seem to catch anyone or bother to investigate (the some of the thieves are probably from outside the local area).
The level of police interest depends on the area
My wife works for a vehicle tracking company who regularly assist a number of police forces around the UK who set up tracked honey traps for Farm and Industrial machinery.
I really don't think this is genuine.
"The majority of music files that were available via this site were stolen from the artists."
I can't see SOCA making this absolute statement no crime has been proven and copyright infringement is not theft. surely SOCA would know this.
" If you have downloaded music using this website you may have committed a criminal offence which carries a maximum penalty of up to 10 years imprisonment and an unlimited fine under UK law.
Utterly untrue.
"SOCA has the capability to monitor and investigate you, and can inform your internet service provider of these infringements."
Visiting a site proves nothing so this threat is baseless and surely no government organisation would say something so ridiculous.. Also WTF is my ISP supposed to do?
"You may be liable for prosecution and the fact that you have received this message does not preclude you from prosecution."
Another baseless threat straight out of the TV licensing's playbook.
"As a result of illegal downloads young, emerging artists may have had their careers damaged. If you have illegally downloaded music you will have damaged the future of the music industry.
As a result of illegal downloads young, emerging artists may have had their careers damaged. If you have illegally downloaded music you will have damaged the future of the music industry.

I have not been able to locate a database that defines this error. The problem is on the record function and I have not been able to record CD/ROMs or DVDs since the laptop was new. A call to service said that the DVD recorder was not covered under the warranty and repair would cost more than a new laptop ($398 by Walmart) Any help is greatly appreciated.(Satellite L455D-S55976)

I have the Satellite L655-S5147 and within a couple of months of purchasing it I have lost the functionality of the keyboard that had to be sent back to Toshiba for replacement and now the CD-DVD drive is not recognized by the computer. It may have been that way since new because I really haven't had a need for it until now. Trying to load software via a cd and the program did not automatically load as it does on most computers. I went to to My Computer only to find out that the drive did not exist. I then went to Device Manager to find that the CD-DVD drive has an alert. Tried to update the driver but it came back as having the most recent driver. Went to Microsoft website to look for fixes, no luck. Tried to have Toshiba hardware troubleshooter fix the problem and again, nothing changed. Not feeling very confident in the quality of the products made by Toshiba and will be reluctant to purchase one in the future.
Does anyone have a fix for the computer to recognize the CD-DVD drive? and the proper drivers or patches needed to ensure it continues to work?
Thanks,

I finally have my laptop back and fixed. I kept taking to Best Buy and they would send out, it would come back work once then nothing. I kept a log of everything! Finally I wrote a letter to Toshiba. The nicest lady from Public Relations called me. I sent her my laptop and she sent to there repair co. Seems my driver was not installed, software was corrupt. When Best Buy sent my laptop out twice, they replaced ODD 2 times said CD worked and when I picked up. Didn't work. My laptop problem was BEST BUY..................
Toshiba has been the best and my laptop is working perfect.
If you bought from Toshiba, call them, they will make it right.
Toshiba America 949-583-3000
Tri-Star Computer is where they sent my laptop.

Call or send a letter. Im so happy with my laptop now, and was ready to buy from another co. Toshiba will make it right for you.

>> know doctors can accept or refuse any patient but in general this has to happen BEFORE the first visit. The problem in this instance is the patient had already been seen once. While practices can fire patients, there's the risk of med-mal suits and medical board reprimands for patient abandonment. I'm not sure how this will play out well or reasonably. If the practice has a patient who weighs 249 for years and he or she suddenly gains a pound will the doctor say "Get out"? Will the doctor have all patients sign some sort of form stating they won't receive care if they reach the 250 mark?
supposed to be trained on how to move large patients safely.
Is she going to stop treating men over 250? A lot of men are
over 250-why is she discriminating against women? If she is
just basing this on the safety of her staff then is she going to
stop treating patients with contagious conditions like flu and
colds? Her staff can become sick from treating contagious
patients. Has she ever heard of the Hippocratic Oath? I am
pretty sure there is no weight limit mentioned in it.
I would also support any doctor who refused to treat patients who smoke.
If you do not have the equipment to deal with very large patients safely, you shouldn't have to do it. I am a nurse, retired now, but it is very difficult to move large patients safely unless they can move themselves or you have proper mechanical lifts, large guerneys, etc. It is also about safety for the patient.
Nurses have a large amount of back injuries due to lifting/transferring patients over and over. As a nurse, I really appreciate the doctor protecting his nurses.
Patients may have to go to a bariatric specialist for care who can accommodate larger patients.
As a heavier person myself, who has only gotten her weight under control these last few years, it would be tough. I am 61 years old and finally found an exercise program that I like well enough to stick with. But it has only been three years, who knows....
Take care, Annette
PS - I assume the doctor refuses men as well as women who are above his weight limits.
I could see the doctor refusing if the office doesn't have the machines to help move people, or if the paitent is unable to move themselves,
This articule doesn't seem to be complete, typical writer, doesn't have all the facts, or they weren't printed
I feel it is unethical to express this, to discuss risks and issues of high weight is important but this section of the patient population cannot be left out in the cold. I also see his patient pool being very small like the patients he wished to treat.
I am 170lbs (overweight) still high on the BMI chart but I was 220.....before saying enough and getting on a plan for loss and restructure. I was a shift worker and a mother with alot of stress....all this adds to weight, it is not just what goes in your mouth.
The foods that are offered to the public 24/7 are the issue....you can eat anything anytime of day!.......education and empowerment to help people will be best approach. BUT in the stress lab I see many OUT OF SHAPE ILL SKINNY PEOPLE...and GREAT SHAPE CHUBBY'S (for the shape they are in)....
I think it is terrible...............Nancy B
I have seen people up to 500lbs but can only test to 425lbs.
They are a group of patients in need and despite the face you see, suffering...........
They are mobile to their abilities, I don't lift...yet a hand needs to be given to some (good body mechanics) if I have not assessed them in their Jazzy chair......My tables are rate for 500lbs...we also set cynder blocks under the toilets to give support to the toilets off the wall. The ER was sued for one breaking off due to a patient....
(they won)
Sure enough ours was loosening....so they are safe now. With nice tiling around the block so no one knows how we did it* (smart thinkier there).
I do so much skin care teaching and skin care....It is an epidemic in the USA, but you can't say OUT...I won't care for you. I really again have to say it is unethical. I also think if they are an established patient you are open to Patient abandonment......
OK, you got my juices flowing this morning..........
Take care, Nancy B from the FM board.
My guess is she is incompetent to practice medicine. She is after the money only with no interest in the patients well being. The patient should be glad she found out the person claiming t be a doctor lacks the necessary knowledge to practice.
What really makes my blood boil is the responses from people judging the patient for being over weight. Before parkinson and a thyroid that does not work i weighed 130 and ran every day or used the treadmill.
currently i am over 200 fighting a uphill battle. people need to remember what my parents taught me. treat others as you would like to be treated.

What about patients who used to smoke and have health problems because of it? What about people who don't eat enough fruits and vegetables? What about people who eat too much candy or drink six Cokes a day? What about people who eat prepared foods with artificial ingredients? What about people who do potentially dangerous things like ride motorcycles or skydive? What about people who don't get enough exercise? What about people who are sick because they allowed themselves to get old?
What's the cutoff in your scenario? 199 pounds and you'll allow them medical treatment, but 200 pounds and you condemn them to death? What behavior is acceptable when you're deciding who should be allowed to live and who shouldn't?
Doctors are supposed to heal people; not heal people only if they meet the doctor's standards.
It's a slippery slope when doctors refuse to treat certain patients; where does it end? Nazi Germany had sort of the same attitude. People who were considered "defective" were killed. Most of us are defective in one way or another, but that doesn't mean that doctors should be allowed to refuse us medical treatment.
I am a woman who weighs over 200 pounds. I hate that I weigh that much, but I do. My weight is the most negative thing about me.
I am a kind and generous person. I volunteer and donate to charities. I am always there to support friends and family who are going through tough times. I am empathetic and sympathetic. There are a lot of people who care about me, and who would miss me if I were gone. I am a daughter, sister, wife and aunt. I help my older relatives who can't drive or are unable to do certain things for themselves. I am quick to write letters of encouragement to friends who are struggling, or to thank people for doing nice things. I try to always treat people with care and respect.
But you're saying that my weight is the only thing about me that matters. That because of my weight, I don't deserve medical care and that, if that causes my early death, that's OK because I'm fat. It breaks my heart to know that so many people agree with you, and that you, and they, think a woman who weighs 120 pounds and beats her children is more deserving of medical treatment than I am. No pun intended, but it makes me sick.. | http://forums.webmd.com/3/debates-community/forum/115/40 | 2013-05-18T10:34:04 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

[Q] problem with ColorFunction in ListDensityPlot
I am putting together a demo for a class in which I am trying to use
Newton-Raphson to iterate the equation z^3 - 1 = 0. I then want to plot
which points in the complex plane go to which root by coloring the initial
starts points three different colors (results in a fractal). Here is what
I am doing:
I first define the function I will be iterating:
f[z_] := N[z - (z^3 - 1)/(3 z^2)];
Then I create the an array of points in which each element of the array
corresponds to the root to which the iteration converges for a given
starting value:
p = Table[ FixedPoint[ f, x + I y,
SameTest -> (Abs[#1 - #2] < 10.^-4 &)],
{x, -2, 2, 0.01}, {y, -2, 2, 0.01}];
Then I label the points 1, 2, or 3 depending on which root the starting
value converges to:
points = Table[ Which[Im[p[[i,j]]] < -0.8, 1,
Im[p[[i,j]]] > 0.8, 2,
True, 3],
{i, Length[p]}, {j, Length[p]} ];
Now, I get a grayscale density plot by using the following command:
ListDensityPlot[points, Mesh -> False,
MeshRange -> {{-2, 2}, {-2, 2}}]
The question is, how do I color it say Red, Blue, and Green? Why doesn't
the following command work?
ListDensityPlot[points, Mesh -> False,
ColorFunction ->
( Which[ # == 1, RGBColor[0,0,1],
# == 2, RGBColor[1,0,0],
True, RGBColor[0,1,0] ]& )
]
Thank you,

Re: determinant of sparse matrix
In article <ds1s8j$fse$1 at smc.vnet.net>,
Mark Fisher <mark at markfisher.net> wrote:

A general n x n tridiagonal matrix with diagonal entries a[i],
super-diagonal entries b[i], and sub-diagonal entries c[i], is
tri[n_] := SparseArray[{
{i_, i_} -> a[i],
{i_, j_} /; j - i == 1 -> b[i],
{i_, j_} /; i - j == 1 -> c[j]
}, {n, n}]
The determinant of such a matrix can be computed recursively using
standard properties of the determinant:
Clear[det]
det[0] = 1;
det[1] = a[1];
det[n_] := det[n] = a[n] det[n-1]-b[n-1]c[n-1]det[n-2]
with no need to explicitly construct the matrix. As a check
Simplify[ det[7] == Det[tri[7]] ]
For a large matrix you will have to increase the $RecursionLimit, say
$RecursionLimit = 10^4
and, if the expressions for a[i], b[i], c[i], are exact, then the
resulting expression can be huge. On the other hand, for numeric
entries, the result is likely to be quite reasonable.
Cheers,
Paul

Re: Hi
On 2/7/11 at 6:05 AM, isableng at gmail.com (Isabella Blengini)???
To start, try actually creating what Mathematica recognizes as a
vector. Note
In[1]:= test = Array[a, 10]
Out[1]= {a[1], a[2], a[3], a[4], a[5], a[6], a[7], a[8], a[9], a[10]}
In[2]:= VectorQ[a]
Out[2]= False
In[3]:= VectorQ[test]
Out[3]= True
In Mathematica, the syntax a[100,1] is interpreted as the
function a evaluated with arguments 100 and 1. It is definitely
not a vector as the above demonstrates.
VectorQ[expr] returns true whenever expr is a one-dimensional
list. And when VectorQ[expr] is true, you can plot expr using
ListPlot. For example the following will plot the sin function
for one cycle
test = Sin[Range[100]*(Pi/50)];
ListPlot[test] | http://forums.wolfram.com/mathgroup/archive/2011/Feb/msg00187.html | 2013-05-18T11:04:36 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
When billionaire Madoff investor Jeffry Picower was found dead at the bottom of the swimming pool at his oceanfront estate in Palm Beach, Fla., on October 25, he left behind lingering questions about the nature of Bernard Madoff’s $65 billion Ponzi scheme. Could Madoff have pulled off the massive fraud on his own, or were others aware of, and even complicit with, the record-breaking scam?
While only Madoff and his accountant have faced criminal charges in the affair, few believe that they acted alone. Picower, who allegedly withdrew at least $5 billion in profits from Madoff accounts, was the subject of a civil suit brought by the trustee of the Madoff bankruptcy, claiming that he “knew or should have known” that Madoff’s operations were fraudulent.
An autopsy found that Picower drowned following a massive heart attack. The lawsuit against Picower will continue, according to Irving Picard, the Madoff bankruptcy trustee. With Picower’s death, however, no one will have the chance to question him under oath.
“Looking objectively at the facts, you can infer that Picower probably had knowledge,” said Steven R. Schlesinger, a Garden City, N.Y., attorney representing Madoff victims. With Picower dead, however, Schlesinger thinks that some questions may go unanswered: “How will you ever know for sure what Picower’s real knowledge of Madoff’s conduct was, unless a smoking gun turns up? So far, that hasn’t come to light.”
During the immediate fallout from the fraud in December 2008, Picower and his family were perceived to be among the hardest-hit victims of the scandal. The Picower Foundation, which gave away more than $24 million in 2007 to not-for-profits, including Limmud NY and the Jewish Outreach Institute, alongside medical research and other causes, closed almost immediately.
Pic.
News reports following Picower’s death noted that his lawyer, William Zabel, said that talks regarding a settlement with Picard were progressing. According to The New York Times, Zabel said that talks had been undertaken “to avoid years of extensive litigation.”
Zabel could not be reached for comment, but in a July 31 filing, he argued, “The Trustee’s villainous portrayal of Mr. Picower is unsupported by facts.” He maintained that Picower had no knowledge that Madoff’s firm was a fraud. Further, he said that the “underlying premise of the Complaint is specious, given that the Defendants’ account returns were not implausible.”.
Chais’s defense has yet to respond to these charges, as it has been caught up in arguing with the court over the trustee’s attempt to freeze Chais’s assets. Chais has been arguing to free funds to pay for medical care for a blood condition that requires ongoing chemotherapy, as well as for the freeing of funds to pay legal bills..”
Shaviv painted a picture of Chais as humble, even modest, for such a major donor. “This is a man who dressed simply and takes walks in the park rather than going to expensive restaurants to have discussions,” Shaviv said. Chais preferred to dress informally, wearing a tweed jacket with jeans and no tie. He “ran away, like from fire, from any honors that donors are usually after. He didn’t want anything named after him, didn’t want big dinners in his honor,” according to Shaviv.
This unassuming image is at odds with the character portrayed in a lawsuit brought against Chais by the SEC. In the SEC’s suit, Chais is accused of misrepresenting himself as a financial genius when in fact he had little experience as a money manager.
“For the last forty years he has held himself out as an investing wizard, purporting to execute a complex trading strategy on behalf of hundreds of investors, despite in actuality being an unsophisticated investor who did nothing more than turn all of those investors’ assets over to Bernard Madoff,” according to the SEC’s lawsuit, filed in June in the United States District Court in the Southern District of New York.
In an e-mail, Chais’s attorney, Eugene Licker, disputed the SEC’s characterization of his client. “It is not true that Mr. Chais held himself out as an investment wizard,” Licker wrote. “Friends and family came to him and asked to invest with him. He uniformly told them that he was investing his money with a broker and that he could not reveal the identity of the broker. In fact, he had invested with Madoff since the ’60s with great success. Everything Madoff did seemed to confirm his skill, and of course he was repeatedly investigated by the SEC, who repeatedly found nothing wrong.”
Licker took a similar tack in an October 21 court filing in response to the SEC’s complaint against Chais. In that filing, Licker argued that the SEC could not hold Chais accountable for not seeing through Madoff’s fraud when the SEC itself investigated and cleared Madoff’s firm. The filing reads, “[The SEC’s] claims are barred by virtue of [the SEC’s] own conduct, which provided credibility to Madoff.”

Earlier this month Sonic Foundry sponsored the The Future of Technology in Education (FOTE) conference. Hundreds of individuals interested in educational technology flocked to London, England to hear from experts in the field and learn what the future holds for classrooms.
One reason the conference was a success: The discussion extended far beyond the physical confines of the conference. The sessions were webcast live to a remote audience via Mediasite by Sonic Foundry.
If would-be attendees weren’t able to get a ticket to attend the in-person event or were unable to make it due to geography, time or budget restraints, they could still participate remotely. All they had to do to feel like they were actually there in person was register using a passcode to get access to sessions via their internet browser. Through the magic of Mediasite they didn’t miss out on anything, and they were able to ask questions and participate in discussions via the Ask button.
Creating hybrid or blended events – meaning a meeting or event has at least one group of face-to-face participants connecting with other participants in one or more additional locations – is becoming more and more common.
New research released by the Meeting Professionals International Foundation and sponsored by Sonic Foundry shares some interesting insights on the topic. MPI surveyed nearly 1,800 meeting planners, attendees, technology vendors and consultants and conducted in-depth interviews with nearly 40 people, and research shows that 70 percent of respondents feel that hybrid meetings will be important to the future of meetings.
Meeting professionals are using hybrid meetings to share content, ideas and experiences with attendees across multiple geographies and time zones. Plus, on-demand content is also important because attendees may not be able to participate at the exact moment the meeting is happening.
The research cited that the potential for cannibalization of the face-to-face meeting is a concern of 50 percent of those surveyed. However, this concern appears to be largely unsubstantiated. The data suggests that face-to-face attendance increased or remained flat – 88 percent of planners who have done hybrid meetings say there’s been no negative impact on onsite attendance.
By going hybrid and streaming your content live and on-demand you’ll be extending your reach, creating instant online video libraries of knowledge that can be reviewed anytime and you’ll allow many more people to attend your event. Just ask the University of London Computer Centre (organizer of FOTE). Going hybrid is a win-win.
Mediasite by Sonic Foundry is used for video management and academic, enterprise and event webcasting. Its Mediasite Events group globally.

Pride, passion and fascinating stories from Asia Minor
Sefa Atay
The Good
Trabzonspor
The league leaders, and deservedly so. Senol Gunes’ men once again proved their title credentials with a battling win at Istanbul B.B. Under Gunes, Burak Yilmaz has looked twice the player who was sold by Fenerbahce last season and helped himself to a brace before Umut Bulut secured the win. Five points ahead of their closest rivals, a fantastic following and an experienced manager – there is seemingly no stopping them!
Trabzonspor fans
What do you get when you mix 50,000 Trasbzonspor fans, a huge stadium and a league leading side. Oh, and did I mention this was an away fixture for Trabzonspor - over 1,000km from home...
Yildirim Demiroren
Following the transfers of Guti and Quaresma, the Besiktas chairman has impressed everybody and pulled another rabbit out of his very deep hat. Highly rated midfielder Manuel Fernandes has joined from Valencia and will restore some much needed bite to the Black Eagles. He is the first of a Portuguese hat-trick reported to be on its way with Simao and Hugo Almeida’s arrivals ‘imminent’....
Karabukspor
While the prize for ‘Surprise package’ could potentially be given to a number of sleazy Super Lig players, the blog will resist in order to congratulate Karabukspor in their debut season. As we approach the half way mark, the team from...Karabuk..are currently sitting nicely in sixth position and boast the league’s top goal scorer – Emanuel Emenike. Long may it continue!
The Bad
Guti
As if his little car prang didn’t result in bad enough press, Besiktas’ star man went one step further when he saw red at Eskisehirspor. A rash kick and a ‘book him’ hand signal (video below) provided Goldilocks with an early bath and even had the commentators suggesting ‘It’s as if he is trying to get sent off’.
But why would he do that? It’s not as though his suspension coincides with the start of the winter break, ensuring an extra week off...not at all!
Fenerbahce and Galatasaray
Over £100m worth of talent yet still struggling to win two consecutive games on a regular basis....
Emre Belozoglu v Ankaragucu directors
‘Firstly, some people need to become men’...hardly the first words the Lig TV reporter was expecting when he started a post match interview with Fenerbahce’s tireless midfielder. It later emerged that Emre had become a little ticked off with a certain member of the Ankaragucu board who had said something, to someone, that the Turkish international didn’t like. All a bit too confusing for the blogs little brain not matter how entertaining!
Kayserispor
Two points from their last four games has seen Kayseri drop to fourth place. Before their dip in form, the blogs dark horses were just two points off leaders Trabzonspor. Now? 10 points – sigh!
Ridiculous
Bursa v Kasimpasa
The sight of 22 men running around in the snow is one I thought I’d seen for the last time during a University skiing trip some years ago. While on that occasion there was certainly no lack of ‘balls’, Monday night’s fixture at Bursaspor was like a Where’s Wally? puzzle. The heavy snow that has taken over the country, and Bursa’s lack of an appropriately coloured ball proved quite surreal viewing. At least the home team’s stadium ban meant no fans were present to witness this farce. | http://fourfourtwo.com/blogs/turkishdelights/archive/2010/12/16/the-good-the-bad-and-the-down-right-ridiculous-of-the-s-252-per-lig.aspx | 2013-05-18T10:14:22 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
BETTER TODAY: Well, yesterday’s forecast was a disaster. Thicker clouds, evaporative cooling, and rain destroyed any hopes of nailing the high and the feel of the day. Not handled well by the models or the meteorologist! Today is much different story. High pressure slips in for a day and brings us some sunshine with some cool air offsetting the temps.
Highs today will hit the middle 40s. Sunshine will filter through some high clouds through the day. Clouds will continue to thicken later in the day into the overnight hours. We’ll drop to the freezing mark overnight. It’s a dry day.
FRIDAY SHOWERS: Isolated rain is possible beginning in the morning hours Friday. However, the best chance for rain showers comes later in the day. From midday onward, scattered showers will dot the landscape. It won’t rain all afternoon, but expect an hour or two of some light to moderate rain showers. Highs will hit the mid 40s under mainly cloudy skies. Rain tapers into the evening and overnight hours.
WARM BUBBLE: The jet stream plays see-saw over the weekend. It’ll orient SW to NE over the central part of the country. While the plains and Midwest will deal with a pocket of very cold air, we’re on the other side under a large bubble of unseasonably warm air moving across the Northeast. Saturday, we hit the middle 50s easily. Sunday we’re near 60° for highs! We’re mostly cloudy all weekend.
Storms systems tend to ride along the path of the jet stream and this weekend will be no different. Saturday looks dry, but our first system rides through Sunday. The heaviest rain looks to stay well to our west, but showers are possible Sunday.
Sure enough, another system will ride along the jet Monday, with another following Tuesday. We’re keeping rain in the forecast through Tuesday, but model differences now keep us from better timing and amounts. Slowly, the warm bubble is forced east and temps fall to 50° on Monday and into the 40s by Tuesday & Wednesday. Still above average though!
Have an awesome Thursday and enjoy that sunshine!

White Sox Beat Royals 4-2
CHICAGO — In an all-out pitchers’ duel, the Chicago White Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 4-2 on Monday night at U.S. Cellular Field.
An RBI double by catcher A.J. Pierzynski gave the White Sox a 1-0 lead in the second inning. In the fifth, right fielder Jeff Francoeur tied the game at 1-1 with a solo home run to right, his 11th HR of the season.
In the seventh, it was Billy Butler’s turn. Butler crushed a solo HR over the center field wall to give the Royals a 2-1 lead. It was Butler’s 21st HR this season, which ties his career-high for home runs in a single season. Later that inning, White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko answered with a solo HR that tied the game at 2-2.
Royals starter Luis Mendoza pitched seven quality innings, but made a couple costly mistakes late. Mendoza (5-8, 4.36 ERA) gave up four runs on seven hits in 7 1/3 innings, striking out five and walking one.
White Sox All-Star lefty Chris Sale pitched a beauty. Sale (13-3, 2.59 ERA) gave up two runs on eight hits in 8 innings, fanning seven and walking none.
The Royals (45-63, 24-31 away) wasted a golden opportunity to add runs in the eighth inning, when they failed to score after having runners at first and third with no outs. Both teams went 1-6 with runners in scoring position.
A solo HR by second baseman Gordon Beckham, and an RBI double by third baseman Kevin Youkilis gave the White Sox (60-48, 30-23 home) a 4-2 lead in the eighth.
Closer Addison Reed (3.83 ERA) slammed the door shut with his 20th save.
Lefty Bruce Chen (7-9, 5.66 ERA) takes the hill against White Sox right-handed pitcher Jake Peavy (9-7, 3.04 ERA) for game two on Tuesday night at U.S. Cellular Field. | http://fox4kc.com/2012/08/06/white-sox-beat-royals-4-2/ | 2013-05-18T10:42:22 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Today, we are completing a sequence which started with the vote on UNSCR 1973, when the international community decided to act to prevent Gaddafi from slaughtering his own people.
During the seven months which followed, we have seen dramatic events where the Libyan people have succeeded in freeing themselves, with the support of NATO.
The government of Libya announced on 23 October the liberation of the Libyan territory. So it was perfectly logical to decide to put an end to the authorization of the use of force.
First, NATO announced that it would put an end to the use of force on 31 October; subsequently, on the generic end to the authorization of the use of force, the Security Council has done it today.
It is a very important stage which finishes today, which was basically the liberation of Libya with the support of all the countries which wanted to be part of this magnificent endeavour.
As the French Ambassador to the United Nations, I should say we are particularly proud of having been, since the beginning, on the side of the Libyan people fighting Gaddafi.
Now a new stage has started. We have to help the Libyan people, our Libyan friends, to rebuild their country. Libya is a very proud country. They will do it by themselves. They told us so and we respect their will. But of course, as the UN, as France, we are ready to help them as much as they request our help, to prepare, to organize institutions, a constitution and so on…
As I said, it is the end of a stage, a stage that we are particularly proud of – we, the UN and the countries which have risked the lives of their soldiers.
Q. On what Ambassador Churkin just said about the fact that sometimes some countries may have violated the terms of UNSCR 1973, either by dropping weapons or having troops on the ground, what is your response to that?
Let the historians decide. As for dropping weapons, a lot of countries considered that the OP4 of UNSCR 1973 allowed in some cases the dropping of weapons.
Q. Since the Libyan case is over, when do you think it will be the right time to try again to do something on the Syrian front?
Unfortunately I am not in a position to give you an answer. I think you have to ask the countries which opposed their veto to the resolution we have presented. We are all appalled by what is happening in Syria. Thousands of people have been killed and every day we see dozens of people being killed. All the promises of reform by the Syrian government went simply nowhere.
I think we will have the right to ask these countries which opposed our proposal: “What is your alternative? What is working?” Again, we have to wait, but maybe at some moment we will come back to the Security Council. For the moment we are supporting the Arab League, but there is not a lot of hope of success of this initiative. So maybe next week we will be in a better position to see what we could and should do.
Q. On Yemen, your past resolution seems to be based on the GCC initiative, which seems to provide immunity for Saleh and his family.
No, it is “based upon”: the words have a sense for diplomats and if we have chose “based upon” it was precisely to say that the GCC initiative was the only political framework we could rely on. I had the opportunity to explain this to Ms Karman. I do understand her reaction and I respect it. There are also elements in the resolution calling for accountability and saying there will not be impunity. | http://franceonu.org/france-at-the-united-nations/press-room/speaking-to-the-media/remarks-to-the-press/article/27-october-2011-libya-adoption-of | 2013-05-18T10:30:29 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Arguments: (staging-stream stream) &body body
If output to stream is synchronized (as per synchronized-output-stream-p), then bind staging-stream to a string output stream whose contents are written atomically to stream upon leaving body (even if by a non-local exit). Atomicity in this context means that stream is locked with with-locked-stream, thus output is safe even in face of concurrent use, provided that all threads use with-staged-output or lock the stream directly.
Currently almost all functions that write streams employ with-staged-output, so that the user only has to (setf (synchronized-output-stream-p stream) t and output to the stream will not be mixed, lost, etc. even if several threads write the stream at the same time.
print-unreadable-object, write, write-sequence, write-vector, write-string, write-line, pprint, pprint-fill, pprint-linear, and pprint-tabular all use with-staged-output. format does too except when creating a string (i.e. its first argument is nil).
Notable functions that do not use with-staged-output (because the overhead would be too high): write-char, write-byte, and terpri.
Nested occurences of with-staged-output do the right thing by default: unless the staging stream is synchronized, the inner with-staged-output will simply bind staging-stream to stream.

In honor of Halloween, I decided to read a Batman graphic novel mtreiten gave me a while back. It's called Haunted Knight, and it's actually a collection of three stories that were apparently all published as Halloween specials.
Here's the thing: I've been blogging a lot about Heroes lately. It's probably my favorite new show of the season. And it turns out, the two guys mainly responsible for Haunted Knight are both involved in that show. Jeph Loeb, the writer, is credited as co-executive producer (as spacezombie pointed out in comments a while back). And Tim Sale, the artist, does all of Heroin Boy's artwork (paintings of the future, as well as the 9th Wonders comic book from the future that Hiro reads).
Synchronicity strikes again.

Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale working together on Heroes is not a coincidence. They've worked together on various projects for about 10 years or more. | http://fraziersbrain.blogspot.com/2006/10/batman-and-heroes.html | 2013-05-18T10:12:27 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
There?
More creator owned work is not the answer. More REALLY FUCKING GOOD creator owned work is.
Some people, like me, just want a fun job that gives some security. There comes a time in life for some people when you have to make the trade: do you want to take the chance, or do you want to make sure the people you love are taken care of?
I full-well realize that I'm in the minority when it comes to liking the corporate comics, but to look down on them as less creative or unoriginal is cutting yourself off from the things that made comics what they are today. 'Watchmen" might not have existed without the Charlton heroes, after all.
The best point here, though, comes from Jacen:
More creator owned work is not the answer. More REALLY FUCKING GOOD creator owned work is.
Jacen seems to have traveled across the same convention floor I have over the last few years.There's so much garbage out there, and everyone thinks that their shit is wonderful. It's not.
If you're going to hold creator-owned comics to a rigorous standard, demand that they be great rather than just OK, that's fine with me. But you need to hold your corporate-owned comics to that same standard...
But they're all trying to emulate that. That's where the argument for originality dies.
Also what was with the dramatic music?
And why doesn't Matt Fraction have to give a fuck about Image now? Aren't they still the publishers of Casanova?
It's always felt to me like the editors and partners at Image really enjoy the breadth of their catalog and want it to stay fresh and appealing.
In order for the perception to change (by Kirkman's arguement) there needs to be an Image-like exodus of the 'top talent' at the big two... the people who create the big books for them, in order to change perceptions.
There are a lot of problems with getting comics racked at the traditional non-direct marketsWhich could potentially be fixed if we did it somewhat like Japan does. I've been thinking that for years! For those that don't know they make weekly/monthly magazine serials with many different creators/stories an issue that are collected separately in trades when appropriate. They could even print in greyscale and the trades could be color for even more incentive to buy both (and for lowering the price for the newstand magazine). YTF has this not happened yet? I can think of some reasons why it wont work (and be hard to coordinate) but a lot more reasons why it will.
So why not offer them a better deal? Maybe a page-rate/advance on royalties comprable to what they might expect on their DC/Marvel books? If Image feels it needs to attach the ancilliary rights, leave the creators with at least as much of the rights as they would have at DC or Dark Horse.This would go against most of the values that the company was founded upon. What if the Sex Pistols never disbanded and somewhere in the early 90's they went disco? It would be shameful to say the very least.
Bendis really has cast aside a chance at using some of that notoriety to push more creative work
Bendis really has cast aside a chance at using some of that notoriety to push more creative work. There's no denying that. Still, he seems acutely aware that his time at Marvel is limited, so he's jumping at the chance to basically be the architect of a fictional universe for awhile. Kirkman just wants him to jump ship before it sinks for him, as it has for so many creators in the past. He's completely right about that. | http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3309&Focus=76270&Feed=ATOM&page=1 | 2013-05-18T10:30:49 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Which party reflects your values?
Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan and the Republicans did not deny God in their platform, nor did they screw up the "language" when it comes to Jerusalem and Israel.
FACT: Obama signed off on the platform before it was presented to the delegates.
FACT: No God.
FACT: No acknowledging that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.
When the chosen planks of the platform proved to be problematic in this election year, the Dems attempted the redo. Obviously, the amendment to their platform didn't pass. The delegates did not approve it. The spectacle was as awkward as the count was inaccurate.
Is the Democrats' platform like ObamaCare? Do you have to pass it to find out what's in it?

If only you could go back in time and force the Founding Fathers to put God in the Constitution.
I have no desire to go back in time and "force" anyone to do anything.
I am content with the Bill of Rights and the protection it offers me regarding the free exercise of religion.
I am content with the wording of the Declaration of Independence.
What does bother me is Obama's assault on the Constitution and his oppression of Catholics. I find his attack on my most precious freedom absolutely appalling. | http://freedomeden.blogspot.com/2012/09/democrats-and-god-no.html | 2013-05-18T10:41:14 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Cycle of harm
EDITORIAL, THE TIMES
It is the Hippocratic Oath - first, do no harm.
Yet for seven years, the City of Abbotsford has hampered the ability of its medical community to reduce the suffering of our most fragile citizens: intravenous drug addicts.
In 2005, council approved a zoning change to ban harm reduction services such as needle exchanges.
The move was brought in under an air of self-righteous morale belief, not on information based on facts.
Under the tutelage of former Abbotsford MP Randy White, who railed against harm reduction, then-mayor Mary Reeves declared "harm reduction is a social services job creation program."
Despite stacks of evidence supporting harm reduction in countless jurisdictions around the globe, the councillors firmly pulled the blinders over their eyes. Abstinence was the only way, they said.
Reeves warned needle exchanges would attract drug users to the city. Then-councillor George Peary said handing out clean needles would encourage addicts' "pathological behavior."
Sadly, the opposite has been true. Chilliwack's Fraser Valley Connection Services had dispensed clean needles at that point for a dozen years, and reported Abbotsford addicts went there to get clean needles. Chilliwack had almost no needles in its city parks. Abbotsford city crews went to FVCS for advice on how to dispose of more than 3,000 needles they found in their parks every year.
Abbotsford now has the third highest rate of hepatitis C infections in B.C., which already has double the national rate. Drug overdose hospitalizations are higher in Abbotsford than the rest of Fraser Health.
Harm reduction is not just about doling out needles or methadone. It gives desperate people basic health services, counselling and hope that there is a way out.
People do recover.
Drug addiction is a medical issue. It can happen to anyone. On May 28, after two years of "studying" the issue, the council will finally have another look at this ridiculous, ill-informed bylaw. It's time for the city council to go cold turkey and drop its addiction to governing by morality.

full article at free paradigm
Here is a nice little article from the Houston Chronicle about “elected” and appointed thugs alike (politicians and bureaucrats) working together to “fix” the government school system. The only way these people work together is at the expense of you and me. The government school system cannot be fixed. That would go against the general tendencies of state-held coercive monopolies. The only way children can be freed from a childhood of harmful indoctrination is to abolish the statist system itself. | http://freeparadigm.wordpress.com/ | 2013-05-18T10:12:03 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Cliff Deal Hinges on Senators White House Meeting Ends With Expressions of Cautious Optimism From Both Sides on Negotiations By JANET HOOK and CAROL E. LEE
WASHINGTONT.
(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ....
We went over the cliff years ago.
Just make up a meaningless term like "fiscal cliff" and watch the monkey's fall all over themselves.
It looks like McConnell is getting ready to sell us down the river.".
Like Boehner, McConnell is but a single vote. Just like when Boehner caved, it will mean nothing when McConnell caves because whatever concessions he makes will never get through the house.
I do for one.
It's good to see the people's House score one (even though a little one) for a change.
Also good to see Hairy Reid have to back down.
Good point. His base would have a fit..
You're right it doesn't work. That's why other measures must be taken. Extreme measures.
“statement. If you throw a Republican out, you’re going to get a Democrat who is more liberal. Period. There are “
Same thing, different label. The R version differs only on how fast it wants to travel to the same destination.
“statement. If you throw a Republican out, you’re going to get a Democrat who is more liberal. Period. There are “
Same thing, different label. The R version differs only on how fast it wants to travel to the same destination.
I, ‘cuz re-electing 97% of the same people have done SUCH a wonder?
So, no Rep = instant Dem? Damn, the 2-party cartel really gives out the kook-aid by the gallon. If people actually did their research and demanded a REAL debate/election, you’d see more 3rd party, like there should be.
The ‘lesser of two evils’ BS still doesn’t fly for the more open minded around here. Say howdy to the GOPe plantation bosses for me; but they sure as shit ain’t doing anyone any favors these days..
Listen you dolt, before you comment you might take a few moments to at least understand the subject and what the conversation is about.
tenmountainman suggested we throw all the bums out on both sides. I pointed out that it was a terrible idea which never goes anywhere, and that if we voted all incumbents (bums) out we'd actually end up voting more liberal Democrats in. In 2010 we did not just vote all the bums out, we voted Democrats out and kept our Republican incumbents in.
Now perhaps you're caught up and can quit with the diarrhea of the mouth.
obozo was elected representative of the Communist/Socialist/Marxist/Revolutionary/Jihadist/de-mocratic Parties. He’s not my president, he is the occupier in OUR White House....resist, delay, deny, obstruct.?
Boehner was trying but getting no cooperation from Reed OR Zero. I think he did the right thing, demonstrating that his caucus wasn’t going to rubberstamp the Dems wishlist. Then heading home.
I am sensing a capitulation from the left on this issue in the last few days...I think Zero knows that if we hit the cliff the economy will suffer on his watch and no blaming it on Bush this time.
I think Zero blinked.... | http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2973059/posts?page=40 | 2013-05-18T10:12:46 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

For example, the phosphoric acid in many types of soda removes calcium from the bones and teeth.
Ban soda, and several problems will be solved. Or, at least teach everyone in the world about its hazards for us and for the planet itself. Destroy the market for soda/pop, before it destroys us!
- |2010-01-18 15:27:37 kp - HFCNot to mention the High Fructose Corn Syrup that is used in all coke and pepsi products, a recent study found that at least half of all store products that use HFC have high levels of mercury in them. Mercury should not be there in nearly all cases because at no point is it used in processing of any of these products. Not to mention that corn is one of the major GMO crops which in a recent study was found to cause organ failure in most of the rats they fed it to.
We arer being sickened and depopulated, Obama's science czar, Holdren explains it in his book Ecoscience, he tell of how we "need to put sterilantz in the staple food and water" to depopulate the planet, he also calls for a "planetary regime" to enforce forced abortion and forced sterilization.

Consider this also, before the days of Prozac and the rest of the pharma garbage that finds it's way into the water supplies, people were more likely to kick off big time to injustice, oppression and suppression, being ripped off day by day and being told that black is white and white is black by the powers that be, much more of this kind of thing is happening now than than ever before and yet the apathy is suffocating, and aren't the water companies being payed by consumers to filter this crap out?

How ridiculous. There is an abundance of water. Yes most is salinated in the form of ocean water. But so what? As soon as the powers that be begin charging ridiculous prices for water, other alternatives will become available. The same can be said for energy.
Individuals and communities need to become more independent from the capitalistic crooks that successfully squeeze us for every nickel we own. They really are worst then the government.
But do not be alarm. The people hold the power, and always have, and always will. You just have to believe that you have the power and make things happen.
Complacency is luxury only in times of abundance. Yes times are changing. But let no one tell you that you cannot control your own destiny. Those who say so, or imply such...are not to be dealt with.
- At one time, in the past and in a location I'll NOT divulge for what I hope will obvious reasons, the small town I lived and grew up in went into a full blown panic. We had but ONE MAJOR water supply for the foothills city/town that was (I use past tense as all of the waters since have been diverted and SOLD off) constantly supplied by fresh mountain run off - worry free. It was discovered that a large stash of dangerous/toxic chems had been discovered - stored away in old, abandoned mining tunnels in the nearby mountains and close to this reservoir. I'll not divulge the name(s) of these chemicals either. Firstly no one would believe it, factually this event occurred so long ago that any trace of truth would surely be next to impossible to obtain to help verify my listing these chems, etc.
These were water soluble chemicals - nothing that was or could be of use to mining techniques of the time. And it was determined that a plot to purposefully contaminte the pure/fresh water reservoir was an immediate threat. We didn't have biggie-named funded and specialized agencies to step up to the plate. No. The State itself was quick to turn the other cheek. Law enforcement people, friends and volunteers devised a plan to monitor our reservoir continually, and vehicles were "standing and ready" and nearby should firearms need by employed to defend our water. MY POINT?????? It has happened, is happening, and will happen again. Some of us have been trying to get people to wake up for decades. And? We keep trying - don't we? TY

You are a perfect example of what's wrong in this world. You need the prozac being dumped into the water!!!! Take a pill and get a handle, cause your headed for the rubber room!!!!!
- Where we live, television commercials love showing toilets (esp at dinner time) being flushed with outdated medications and cigarette butts being dumped into the toilets for disposal. ONE SUCH COMMERCIAL AIRED FOR... ready? For "KAISER PERMANENTE"... and self promoting "health insurance" (concerned?) conglomerate.
No one.. no one took up the path of fighting this fight while it was escalating. I did, however - including a raging letter to KAISER concerning their commercial content and possible, inevitable future repercussions. There have been others.. lots of others. Thankfully, the "THEME" of flushing all toxins, meds and unwanted TRASH down the convenient toilets into systems to treat and recycle the same waters, has begun to disappear. So. NOW WHAT? TY
- |2010-01-18 10:22:23 Terry Hagan - Evidence?Where is your evidence for drugs in UK water, we do have fluoride of course but you state that UK water along with the US and Canada is "contaminated with Prozac and a "vast array" of other drugs". I read a lot and whilst I have read that this is indeed the case in the US, I have heard nothing about it for the UK. Please inform me!
- |2010-01-18 11:03:32 Acharya SThe third article linked here is about the U.K. In fact, it's by the BBC. Here it is again -
Prozac 'found in drinking water'
That article is specifically about Prozac, but I would not be surprised if there are other drugs in British water for the same reasons we have them here.
In fact, here's another article -
British drinking water 'may be tainted with prescription drugs'
Quote:Cancer drugs are of particular concern because they dissolve easily in water.
The "cytotoxic" drugs, which are used in chemotherapy, are potentially dangerous because they are hard to break down through traditional water purification methods and remain potent in low concentrations....
In January the DWI warned that tap water should be tested after they found traces of bleomycin, a cancer chemotherapy drug, and diazepam, a sedative, in samples of drinking water.
Apparently, British water is fluoridated, at least in some areas:
Minister orders fluoride to be added to water
A simple search revealed these articles.
- Water borne sewage is a dangerous system, as these results are clearly indicating. As long as we have theses systems in place we need to pay particular heed to effectively decontaminating the water before releasing it into natural systems or re-using it. Imagine what these drugs are doing to the entire food chain, from microorganisms right up to fish, soils irrrigated with this water, and the plants grown as food upon these soils.
- Self education and research is the key. There are books and web sites to explore. Flouride was never allowed in Europe for instance or fertilizers or weed killers. Salt is only put on the roads in winter when absolute nessesary. The first book "Fit for Life" made me think and research and study. Now I have a Ch.T. in Holistic Healing and it is very interesting what I learned.

illy:' title='
illy:' class='postemoticon' /> would have us think the jews are behind every ill. One must tear that veil down and see who really controls the jews and hires them into the top visible offices of power. That is a non issue here.
Secondly. We are not running out of water. The same amount of water is still on earth. It may be polluted, salty, or existing as atmospheric water vapor and/or contained in lifeforms but, I assure you it is still around. We have the means to purify/freshen water. This is a play on our fears and when you are afraid you lose your critical thinking and become a fight or flighter, and easily manipulated.
Stand up to, or make an end-run around the soulless non-entities called corporations and the soulless humanoid parasites that run them. What they hate more than anything, and BTW disables them is love. Keep your enemies close and beam love at them. That makes them squeamish and they do want to get away from you. Case in point: Ghandi.

- |2010-01-19 20:23:38 just meuncapped, unlimited capitalism is the blame for many of our ills-greed. corps don't care about people -they care about bottom line. governments protect them not us for the kick backs. government allowed all here to think anyone could get rich and the race to the bottom began.
the jews invented capitalism, i think, so u may be able to blame them some tiny bit-but really it is the people's fault for not heeding the words of those who tried to set up a gov't by the PEOPLE, for the PEOPLE and of the PEOPLE-no standing army, don't give bankers control (wall street) and never trust ur gov't -WATCH them closely. to the gov't those benefitting from corporations (the very rich) and the corps themselves are the only PEOPLE worthy. the rest can eat crow-no better than the kings of old. and when the people get restless cuz they can see they are being shortchanged and even harmed, the gov't calls for war against a trumped up, demonized 'enemy', so we forget with whom the real beef is. obama was a trick. and now if u say anything against him-u are a bigot. a fine way to shut u up. just like with israel. say anything against it and suddenly u are anti-semitic -whatever-a fine trick say i. america, the people of the world better take charge of their leaders and militaries before armegeddon becomes more than a biblical fairytale.

And the Southland Corporation was the owner of about 6000 7-Eleven stores. In other words, the AMA, thru its 7-Eleven stores, was, and maybe still is, feeding to Americans some of the most dangerous junk that was ever called food, including the "soda pop" mentioned above.
Maybe their secret unannounced motto is, "Stimulate business by feeding them junk that will cause them to need a doctor."
- |2010-01-19 09:57:27 Mal - ChloramineHere in the Adelaide Hills we have this chemical called chloramine in the water (and god knows what else) - chloramine contains AMONIA. Recently I received a letter from the water authority (can't find it so I'll just give you the gist).
The letter was a warning regarding fish tanks. It said that if tap water is used to fill fish tanks it must be put through a filter first, as chloramine will KILL THE FISH.
They signed off by saying that it is perfectly safe for humans.
So OK to drink - no worries - perfectly safe - but don't give it to your fish 'cos it will FRIGGIN' KILL THEM.

The filtration will take most of the chemicals out and the ozone will neutralize and chemicals that make it through the filtration process. That's what I did and my water tests out at 4 ppm! That's about as pure as you can get on this planet from a tap.

Just because its not confirmed doesn't make it untrue. I know for a fact DH is part Shawnee and Sioux. But I have no actual proof. One of his grandmothers on his paternal side was full blooded Shawnee. Not sure where the Sioux comes in but he's certain about that too. If he could prove it he could be carded. But without that proof all I can say is..we know he's part Native American. I don't care if people believe him or not, and neither does he. We know what the truth is, whether we can show it on paper or not. That's kind of like arguing that a dog isn't a certain breed just because it isn't a registered breed. If it looks like the breed, it probably is.
Of course I realize that. I said that "most of the time" it's not true; not *all* the time. ;)
It really would be nice to find a true family rumor one of these days for someone. It's sad to break the news to them that their ancestor, who looked so Native American, really wasn't. | http://freya-newenglandgenealogy.blogspot.com/2012/04/grandmagrandpa-was-full-blooded-native.html?showComment=1335639658444 | 2013-05-18T10:54:03 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Just sayin.'
In case you missed this as it was happening, it began in the chat room and sort of spilled over into the Creations board with a help thread. One by one people chimed in with different vocal takes and instrument performances, and I slugged them all into place and chopped the videos up.

Happy late morning, everyone. I’m getting a late start today after a very long birthday yesterday. I worked all day and then spent the evening at a monthly gathering of maker friends, two of whom I’m coaching through knitting projects (one giant snood and one kimono-style sweater). Which really probably shouldn’t be done in combination with birthday libations, I’m just saying. But getting to be at an event full of people I love on my birthday, without it actually being a birthday party, is among my favorite things. And that followed a long, fun weekend of crab and champagne with my husband and good friends plus girls’ day downtown.
So I slept in a bit this morning, but wanted to tell you about a few sweet gifts I got that will factor into my knitting kit. First came the navy-blue Stitch & Hammer pouch I’ve been a little bit obsessed with, which my husband and a dear friend conspired to acquire for me. I believe it will eventually hold the Dreamz interchangeable needles that my darling sister got me (but we won’t know for sure until I get Webs to send them — they inadvertently sent the wrong thing). And another dear friend, who shares my love of paper and blank books, gave me the Rowan Morrison Found Paper Journal, with a giant pair of scissors embossed into the kraft cover. I also might have bought myself a new African market basket for piling all my WIPs into. And in a very pleasant surprise, a brand-new friend sent me some digital patterns. So I’m feeling flush with good friends and good supplies. What more could a girl ask for?
.
Happy belated birthday! It sounds like you had a wonderful day!
Thanks, Jennifer.
Yay! Happy Birthday Karen! I love your pouch and journal, you lucky girl. Those are great presents. Sounds like you had fun last night with other creatives too. Good for you!
You’re right, a girl can’t ask for much more than all those fabulous gifts :) It sounds like the perfect birthday.
Pretty much.
Happy belated birthday!
Dang it all. I wish we still lived close to each other. I do remember spending a few great birthdays with you. What fun!
I share that wish.
Much love and creative happenings in the year ahead! I adore birthdays and your celebrations sounded perfect!
Happy Birthday! Sounds like a fun one.
Happy belated birthday! Hope this year brings lots of wooly, lovely goodness.
Thanks, all of you. And yes to “wooly, lovely goodness” — for all of us!
You deserve all that and more! I hope it was a great one!
I’m a bit behind with my reading so please accept very belated birthday wishes. Hope you had a great one.

We’re no longer emigrating, now we’re migrants!
It struck me when a kindly Customs Officer turned to her colleague and said “These migrants are declaring wood, cud ya take a luk?”. It was a throw away comment to her, but for me it was huge. As we passed through customs we were ‘home’, legal immigrants in a land of opportunity.
I’ve skipped ahead of myself here though, completely skirting over the flights. Looking back I think it’s a bit like childbirth – painful when you’re going through it but you soon forget just how difficult it was and at some point I may even start thinking it’s something I could do again. I’m going to have to at some day so it’s probably just as well not to dwell on the lack of sleep for 36 hours and having to entertain three small children in a confined space, as well as lug tons of hand luggage on and off the plane in Dubai, Bangkok and Sydney whilst balancing a baby on my hip and trying to keep track of the boys through security and on travelators. It was tricky but could have been worse, and we survived.
Equally tricky was having to negotiate our way through customs and out to the taxi rank with the kids and three very full baggage trolleys. Chris and I took a trolley and a child each, one of whom is short enough to walk under security barriers without a second thought, and the other who couldn’t care less about any barriers or listening to his parents if he spots something more interesting somewhere else. Thankfully, despite it being bigger and considerably heavier than him, Griff was delighted to be ‘driving’ the third trolley. He should probably have had ‘L’ plates but it was down to his zigzagging his way to customs that the lovely officer opened a new section to whisk us through the baggage check. Bless them both.
Two final thoughts about our airport experience.
1. We needn’t have been so concerned about customs. We’d heard and read lots of horror stories about people getting fined for bringing banned items into the country, mud on shoes, certain wood products, food, liquids and more. But, they weren’t bothered about going through all our bags. They only dealt with us because we’d declared a wooden toy Brecon had been given for her first birthday, and that was all they were interested in. We got to keep her present and breezed through to the arrivals lounge.
2. The Australians were warm and friendly. The staff we’d spoken to were all great, very welcoming. But it was a complete stranger who made me smile most. She came over to tell me how well I was doing managing with three small children with all our stuff, and it was just what I needed to hear. She didn’t have to say anything, it’s not like she was standing next to me and one of the kids had bumped into her or tugged on her skirt. She had come out of her way to come and speak to me.
So I’ve caught up on my blog a little. I’m still more than three weeks behind but at least we’re in Oz now. Next time Sydney…
Looking forward to the next instalment. If you’d travelled in the 60′s you would have had several weeks on a ship to contend with! At least this was relatively short and sharp.

Forward:
I am a Software Consultant/musician/recording studio owner. I operate in the business
world as a sole proprietorship with no employees. As such, I both create and purchase
software. My first two comments apply to the entire bill, including the warrantee section.
1. Too Complex
I read the UCITA document on your web site and a couldn't fathom it. I have never
written a computer program that is that convoluted and I can't believe a document this
complex will ever do what even the drafters intended. For example, if I draft my own mass
market license containing the phrase "Production and releasing software to mass
market distribution will indicate acceptance of these terms..." and send it to every
vendor I buy software from it looks to me like sections 107b and 108a would make my
agreement legally binding. I think we can be pretty sure that is not what the authors
intended...
2. Impossible Compliance Burden
I own at least several hundred software packages (for both personal and business use).
I am only one person. If I were forced to treat every shrinkwrap license as being legally
binding, I would spend so much time on contract compliance that I would not have time to
do any work. I think any sort of shrinkwrap license puts an unconscionable burden on
individual consumers and small businesses. It also imparts a significant expense on large
businesses. I think ONE STANDARD shrinkwrap software license would be wonderful (I
currently adhere to fair use copyright principals as best as I understand them, but there
are some grey areas regarding the limits of person use when a one person business is
involved -- it would be nice to have this spelled out).
You asked in your notice "Are consumers able to comparison shop for different
computer information products or services based on the terms of warranty coverage?"
The ones I have read have all been too full of legal jargon to be understandable and don't
address the question of real importance: How good is the company's support going to be in
the long haul.
"Are consumers interested in doing so?" This one isn't as they exist in
current shrinkwrap licenses or in UCITA.
Do manufacturers or sellers of software and other computer information products and
services compete with each other on the basis of warranty coverage? In a way, yes, but
they compete in terms of "support quality", not warrantees. This is much more
prevalent in high end business computing than mass market, shrink wrap, software.
It's also very hard to define.
3. Software is Different
Treating warrantees for mass market software the same as warrantees for hard goods is
not appropriate. For example, the best warrantee a purchaser of mass market software can
get is that the manufacturer stays in business and keeps supporting the product with bug
fixes and enhancements. I think the public would be best served by the following:
There aspects of software which make it different from hard goods are:
4. Copy Protection
Many mass software vendors use copy protection to ensure people stick to the vendor's
definition of fair use (whatever that may be). Most of these schemes have become fair to
consumers over the years due to pressure from some of the more ethical computer press
people, but a lot of companies in niche markets (recording studio software for example)
take advantage of the fact that purchasers become locked in and have very unfair copy
protection policies (which the users usually don't find out about until a disk goes bad
and they need a new copy of the software key). The vendors should be required to bear all
expenses related to maintaining copy protection: They should be required to do this
forever or until they put out a non-protected version of the program in question.
5. Existing Protection
"Do existing laws and industry practices protect consumers in the event that
software and other computer information products or services are defective?" They
haven't done well by me, but you aren't focusing on what really caused pain:
Products becoming unsupported when I already had a lot of my own data for them.
Companies changing their copy protection policies making it too risky to continue using
the product.
"How often does this occur?" Not that often, but about $1200 for two software
products, in my case. The reality is that consumers are completely at the mercy of the
vendors once they have used the product for a month or two and become dependent on it for
manipulating their data.
6. UCITA Impact
"How would the proposed Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA)
affect consumers?" It is impossible for me to keep track of hundreds of different
software licenses. I will be forced to either unknowingly violate the law or go out of
business.
7. License vs. Copyright
"What is the impact of characterizing a mass-market software transaction as a
license as opposed to a sale of goods?" This strikes me as an attempt by large
manufacturers to make the transactions completely one-sided. They give up almost nothing
from the warrantees implied by UCITA (most computer hardware and software comes with a
no-questions asked money back warrantee anyway and it takes so long to really figure out
you've bought a turkey that no traditional warrantee is going to change things much). What
they get from UCITA is to write up a legally binding license of their own choosing that
includes such things as gag orders forbidding public criticism of the software (i.e.,
preventing consumers from warning other consumers about sub-standard products).
8. Public Forum
Which interests should be represented at the Commission's initial public forum on
"Warranty Protection for High-Tech Products and Services?"
Individual consumers who purchase a lot of software small business owners information
system managers from non-computer companies
