Game Chronicles (Jun 12, 2003)
This is the ultimate version of Clone Wars you can play. Thankfully, the power of the Xbox has eliminated all of the serious problems and gameplay issues with the title and the Xbox Live is just icing on the cake. I suspect that this game was being used by Lucasarts as a "testing grounds" for their upcoming Xbox titles and if this is any indication of what's to come it's going to be a great year for Star Wars games.
Game Informer Magazine (Jun, 2003)
The Xbox version is the fastest ship in the Clone Wars fleet. Not only have the graphics been enhanced to include self-shadowing, bump-mapping, and a steady framerate, the multiplayer component now features online play that supports up to eight players per map. The diversification in gameplay styles, which switches between a hovertank, dropship, speeder, and more, creates a fairly enthralling single-player package, but the Xbox Live material makes it look meek in comparison and steals the show. The online festivities include amazingly addictive base-versus-base battles, and all-out human versus CPU wars. Even if you've already played the GameCube or PlayStation 2 incarnations, this late bloomer is worth investing in.
XBox Solution (XBS) (Oct 28, 2003)
You'll be finished with the single player campaign in a few short days, make it a week or two if you decide to pound out all the difficulty levels as well, but Xbox Live will keep you going for months to come with downloadable maps and an endless supply of 'wet behind the ears' gamers to smack down on Xbox Live.
IGN (Apr 22, 2003)
Clone Wars has the ultimate upgrade to differentiate it from its PS2 and GameCube predecessors, but not even Xbox Live can make a decent game great. Weaving your way through the single player and multiplayer campaigns to arrive at the Conquest mode will deliver that freshness and enjoyable experience you want out of any new Xbox game. Being a one-trick pony through Xbox Live works for MechAssault, but this first Xbox Live Star Wars game doesn't have the same impact as that first party launch title.
GameZone (May 19, 2003)
The Clone Wars has definitely begun and the action is even more intense online, but the game lacks a few things that this keep it from being an instant classic. Still, fans of the much loved Star Wars franchise will find plenty of things to love about a game that tries hard to be faithful to the intense action seen in Episode Two. For the most part, it does a good job but it's not enough to really be anything more than light diversion until Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic or Star Wars: Galaxies comes out.
GameSpot (Apr 24, 2003)
Convincing is a good word for The Clone Wars, which ultimately succeeds at making you feel like you're on the front lines of a big Star Wars ground battle. Despite some strategic elements, it really is a pure action game at heart, filled with plenty of targets to shoot at, plenty of power-ups to collect, and a good variety of tough missions to accomplish. The online multiplayer mode does a fine job of extending the game's mileage, making The Clone Wars suitable at least for a rental by the casual Star Wars fan, but worth keeping for those who really enjoyed Episode II.
Jeuxvideo.com (Jun 04, 2003)
Même si cette version Xbox ne souffre pas directement de la concurrence avec l'excellent Rogue Leader sur GameCube, le fossé qui sépare ces deux titres en termes de sensations de jeu n'en est pas moins évident et seuls ceux qui n'auront pas eu la chance de découvrir le soft de Factor 5 auront une chance de se laisser séduire quelques minutes par le contenu peu original de The Clone Wars. Le manque de surprise dans la mise en scène s'accorde avec la médiocrité du gameplay pour conférer au titre un potentiel ludique très faible et à l'intérêt franchement limité. Reste cela dit les parties en ligne qui pourront intéresser quelques joueurs...
Next Level Gaming (May 10, 2003)
I would recommend this game for any Star Wars fan that does not have the patience for a flight/race simulator or a single first person shooter. This is a mixed bag, a little of everything for the want-be-Jedi's appetite. But it might be worth a rental just to see if you like the Xbox Live portion better than me. It just wasn't there for me.
Video Game Talk (Jul 19, 2003)
At the very least, "The Clone Wars" would seem to be an essential rental for XBox Live subscribers, assuming they have better luck finding opponents than I did. At a lower price point, I'd have recommended it as a purchase, but the game's flaws make it difficult to suggest plunking down fifty bucks sight-unseen. I still recommend "Star Wars: The Clone Wars", primarily to subscribers to Microsoft's online service, though I'd either wait for a substantial price drop or swinging by the video store for a rental first. A borderline recommendation.
GamePro (US) (May 02, 2003)
Once again, however, the multiplayer modes will make you completely forget about all this. There are the usual deathmatch and king-of-the-hill modes, of course, but the real highlight here is still Conquest, which plays out like a miniature RTS on steroids. Everything runs smoothly online, too, even with eight players lightsabering each other at once.
GameSpy (Apr 25, 2003)
The Clone Wars isn't quite up to the spectacular standards of LucasArts' Rogue Leader and Starfighter shoot-'em-up franchises, but it supplies plenty of Star Wars-themed shooting action, and the Live support considerably boosts the replay value, more than making up for the brevity of the one-player campaign.

Second in a series on America's imperiled future.[I, III, IV, V, VI]
Who are we? What are we?
Fifty years ago there was only one answer. We were Americans, and most knew what that meant. When American principles were found lacking in practice, reformers stepped forth. In those days, reform meant to apply the principles, not to overthrow them.
Today there are as many answers to the questions as there are hyphenated-Americans and organized "victim groups." Assimilation is no longer a function of America's educational system. Not even native-born whites are being assimilated. The real answer to the questions is that America is a Tower of Babel, not only in races, languages, religions and cultures, but also in beliefs.
Multiculturalism teaches that all cultures are equal with the exception of traditional American culture, which is a racist, sexist, homophobic, hegemonic white male engine of oppression. The formerly venerated Founding Fathers are despised as "hegemonic oppressors." A common interpretation of the U.S. Constitution is that it is an anti-democratic device for protecting rich property owners and "hate speech" offensive to minorities and women.
In his bestseller, The Death of the West, Patrick Buchanan shows how American intellectual confidence was sapped by the relocation of the Frankfurt School of German cultural Marxism to U.S. universities. Substituting accusations, propaganda and emotion for knowledge and reason, cultural Marxists have blocked the transmission of the beliefs that cemented America together.
With the cement gone, what once was a nation is dissolving into a collection of victim groups taught to regard white males as oppressors. We are left with a thin gruel of comity between the races and the genders.
Hatred cannot be taught without consequences.
Communists taught hatred of the upper classes, and the result was tens of millions murdered in Russia and China.
German intellectuals taught hatred of Jews, and millions were murdered.
Now it is whites who are demonized. Earlier this year a number of black youths were arrested in idyllic Charlottesville, Virginia, for a series of brutal racial attacks on white university students. Just the other day, when Cincinnati police broke up a street fight between two teenage girls, 300 blacks shouting "get whitey" attacked the police and white motorists who were driving by.
Recently at the University of California, Berkeley, a student publication criticized a Hispanic student group for advocating the liberation by "bronze people" of California and the Southwest from "the gringos." The Hispanics responded with violence, breaking into the publication's offices, destroying copies of the publication and issuing death threats to the staff.
Nonwhites feel confident and justified in assaulting whites. Nonwhites have been taught that they are victims of white oppressors and that they are justified in responding to oppression with violence.
Nonwhites have learned that, despite the "hegemonic" white power structure, they have little to fear from confrontations with white students. A double-standard operates. Hispanic violence is due to "anger and resentment" and is met with "understanding," but whites who responded to violence with violence would definitely face expulsion and hate-crime charges.
In multiculturalspeak, whites lack the moral status of a victim group. When whites are beaten and shouted down, it is seen as retribution. The confidence and courage of whites to defend free speech is undermined, because everything whites say can be said to be "offensive" to preferred minorities.
"Anger and resentment" has also become a protective cover for women's violence against men.
Once violence is exonerated by "understanding" the motives, all constraint is gone. Donald Kagan, perhaps Yale's most distinguished scholar, writes in the current issue of the Intercollegiate Reviewthat among the faculties of the prestige universities, the main response to 9/11 is to sympathize with the desperate, angry and bereaved Muslims who, understandably, replied to offensive cultural messages with violence.
A country, especially a moralistic one, whose intellectual elites do not believe its history and culture are defensible, and whose politicians will not protect its borders from illegal immigration, will become a country whose youth will not serve it in combat.
The U.S. does more to defend the borders of Kosovo and Bosnia than it does to secure its own border with Mexico. How long can a country, portrayed by its own educators as a bastion of white racism, continue to bomb brown-skinned Muslims in a war on terror?
We are told that the war on terror will last for years, but where is the belief system to sustain it?
Will multiculturally-indoctrinated youth kill and die for racist, sexist, hegemonic power?

The Sermon part 3 -- fasting
Presented by Pastor Lynden on June 4, 2017
Fasting, praying, and giving alms must be done secretly and without hypocrisy to be rewarded openly by your heavenly father. Read More ...
This prayer is awesome. It releases angels to do God's work when you pray. And it binds demons and destroys the purpose of the devil himself.

Notes for a shoot
I'm thinking about doing a shoot soon, and wanted to check some stuff out near Little Creek, right on the shore of the Delaware Bay. These are some of the things I saw that might be useful backgrounds. Watch the blog and see what develops. Get it? I kill myself sometimes!

Kubrick's day of pampering at Pooch Park Doggie Day Care Metro East
Shantee the Dog Fashionista is still a nursing doggy mom (yay, her pups are now a month old!), so it's her "boyfriend" Kubrick who's taking up the role of "dog model" and "service tester" for the time being. He isn't too happy about it (he's not vain and hungry-for-humans'-attention like Shantee), but I think he eventually enjoyed it. Because this time, he got to try out Pooch Park's full grooming services thanks to mypetchannel.tv!
That's Kubrick in his summer cutie crew cut with the Pooch Park groomer. We were gone for five days on a trip to El Nido a few weeks back, and unfortunately, Kubrick wasn't able to have his daily brushing as regularly as usual. And since he doesn't really care about whatever he walks on, Kubrick's fur on some parts of his body had become tangled and matted. I was given the option to just have the areas that are too matted to be shaved while the rest remained intact, but I imagined he'd look like an elongated earth globe with a head, feet and tails, so I just opted to let them go all out! Besides, it's summer already and the heat makes Kubrick very uncomfortable. With his adorable new bob, he's comfy… and he smells soooo good too! 😀
See that other Shih Tzu in the background? That little guy threw a fit when he saw us pick up Kubrick. According to the Pooch Park Metro East crew, the noisy one is a regular, and they were unfazed at the tantrum he's throwing. Apparently, the noisy Shih Tzu throws a fit every time he sees another dog gets picked up. But once a staff member pays attention to him, he shuts up 😛 He's just an attention-hungry pup like Shantee 😀
I always make it a point to chat up staff members of grooming salons I take my dogs to even when I'm not writing a review. Talking to them gives me a glimpse of how they treat their canine clients, and if they're just in it for the love of money and not of dogs. After all, I'll be leaving my pet under their care for a few hours. I needed to know if they'll treat my pet right.
So far, I'm very satisfied with the crew of Pooch Park Metro East — they know their canine clients, and seem to have a genuine concern for them. Kubrick was literally shaking in fear when I handed him over to the lady behind the counter, but calmed down a bit when she cooed and comforted him. The interaction between staff and the dogs gave me assurance that my Kubrick was in good hands — he'd be safe until I pick him up after a few hours in the nearby gym.
Pooch Park Doggie Day Care in Robinsons Metro East is strategically located by the entrance of the mall's fourth level. The mall does not allow dogs to wander about, but Pooch Park is so near the entrance that you can easily drop your dog off their store before doing your shopping. Pooch Park started as a doggie day care center with a purpose: give dog owners a place to stay in a no-pets-allowed establishment. They've now expanded to grooming services and selling dog stuff; your dogs get the pampering they deserve while you do your shopping.
What most attracted me to check out Pooch Park when it first opened in Metro East is their unique setup of doggy treats. It's a like a buffet, a dog's dream come true! 😀 It kind of reminds of the those candy stores usually located near movie theaters, where you get to pick the flavors you want and pile it up inside a bag. Pooch Park's doggy treats corner is similar to that, though the treats are priced as per piece instead of by weight.
My dogs just adore the "burger" treat — looks like a tiny burger — they absolutely go gaga over the bag of treats I take home for them after a round of workout in the nearby gym. 😀
Pooch Park also has reasonably priced dog clothes. My sister already got Kubrick a dog shirt (Php 250 for a "macho" polo shirt) from them which he wears over his crew cut whenever we turn on the air conditioner in the office so he won't get cold. They also have these creatively-labeled spoof shirts — my husband particularly like the one with the label "No Gay, connecting pretty" a spoof of "Nokia, connecting people," it'll look so funny on a macho-looking dog!!! 😀
Pooch Park Doggy Day Care Metro East has so much to offer to dog-lovers — it's like a doggy wonderland! Check it out and give your dog the pampering he deserves 😀
Hey wait, there's more!!! Would you like to be the winner of a gift certificate for an Executive Grooming Package from Pooch Park Doggie Day Care? If the answer is yes, head over to mypetchannel.tv and join Pooch Park's Sleeping Bow-wowties Photo Contest!

'I'm not falling for it!' Hilary Duff slams model moms and the pressure to look perfect post-baby as she shows off her hard worked for physique in sexy ensembles
Hilary Duff may be looking great - but she wants other mothers to know that she did not wake up like this the day after giving birth.
After three years of workout dedication, the 27-year-old star is showing off her hard work in Shape Magazine's May issue - and using the publication to clear up some Hollywood 'truths.'
Hilary wants other moms to not feel pressure to bounce right back after having their babies.
Scroll down for video
Fitness inspiration: Hilary Duff showed off her hard work in Shape Magazine's May issue - and used the publication to clear up some Hollywood 'truths'
Show off those buff abs like Hilary Duff in a For Love & Lemons crop top
Hilary Duff is totally buff in a For Love and Lemons Luna crop top! Even after post baby, she's been working out and it shows in her photoshoot with Shape Magazine.
The brand has been heavily photographed on the Kardashians and lots of it-girls. The collection is defined by a sweet, girlish playfulness but the serious skin shown by these pieces give off a sexy, grown-up edge. Bodacious bods are a must to rock these belly, back, side boob baring designs. But you'll be turning heads for sure in this.
With summer here and everyone sweating it out at the gym, show off your assets in this. Style the top with low hip hugging cut offs or if you've been a little lazy with those crunches, go for a high waisted skirt to hide any imperfections.
Head over to Shopbop to pick up this sexy crop or if it's a little bit too expensive we found a super similar almost splitting image of it in white from ChicNova.
The body confident star told the magazine that even she struggled to not feel pressured.
Hilary said: 'There's so much pressure to always have it together, and I'm not falling for it.
'You see supermodels who have babies, and the next week they look as if they were never pregnant. That was not the case with me.'
Hard work: The 27-year-old may be looking great but wanted other moms to know that her figure was thanks to a lot of excise and for them not to feel pressured by model mothers who just seem to bounce back easily
Mixing it up: The star said she does not just mindlessly go to the gym each day, instead three days a week she tries different workouts involving weighted balls, battle ropes and even a huge hammer
But the mother of one - Luca, three - said she is learning to not be so hard on herself.
'Some days I feel great, others I feel pretty normal, and that's acceptable.'
But while she may have her up and down days, the Younger actress is certainly looking very good at the moment.
Wearing a cropped lace For The Love Of Lemons top with low slung jeans, Hilary showed off her enviable midsection.
Saucy staple: The star got to wear her fashion favourite, denim, and be a little sexy wearing a denim Guess Moto Zip Up Corset
Of her workout regime she said: 'I don't do auto-gym. I go three times a week and mix it up every time.
'I work out with weighted balls, battle ropes, and big rubber bands. I do this thing with a sledgehammer where I swing it and hit a rubber block, and it gets out all of my aggression. Everyone is like, ''Uh-oh, Hilary's got the hammer - get out of the way!'''
Hilary also shapes up on a daily basis by carrying her 35-pound three-year-old tot all around town.
Just being me: But the mother-of-one said she is learning to not be so hard on herself, 'Some days I feel great, others I feel pretty normal, and that's acceptable'
No diets: The actress said she avoids dieting, saying she'd rather have her fingernails pulled out then restrict herself when it comes to food
'The other day we went to Disneyland and he fell asleep in my arms, and I had to carry him back to my car, which was a 30-minute walk. I was dying,' the Elixer author explained.
Dispite her impressive physique - which she showed off in a myriad of different looks - the star says she does not diet.
'I rely on grown-woman food.
Out now: Hilary's interview appears in the May issue of Shape
'I'd rather have someone pull my fingernails off than hunker down and go on an actual diet. It's so hard for me!
'My sister Haylie and I once considered doing a baby-food diet, but it just sounded too disgusting.
And that 'grown-woman food' includes having some cheese handy at all times.
'The key to a happy life is cheese. It's a real problem. I can't say no to it! There's a cheese shop in Beverly Hills, and my car is like a magnet to it. Luca is crazy about it, too. Love the cheese.'
But her absolute favourite snack is pretty healthy, a 'Wasa cracker topped with avocado, radish, chica seeds, a little olive oil, some sea salt, lemon, and dill.'
Talking about her eating preferences, Hilary revealed she roasts all her vegetables with olive oil, as steamed veggies 'bore' her.
But it is not just her figure which has changed, the actress also spoke about how she is trying to leave her squeaky clean child star image behind her too.
'I embrace the mess. I had to be careful not to screw up in public as a child actor.
'So on my new show, Younger - which is written by Darren Star, who created Sex And The City - it's really fun for me to play Kelsey, a 27-year-old book editor whose personal life is a hot mess. She always chooses the wrong guy, drinks way too much, and has to cover for herself the next morning.'
Incidental exercise: Hilary also shapes up on a daily basis by carrying her 35-pound three-year-old Luca, pictured earlier this month, all around town
Keeping it real: The actress (pictured right, last month and left, last week) stays healthy but does so by eating normal foods and not any fancy Hollywood fads
For the cover of the magazine, the beauty is glowing in a patterned push-up ruffled bikini top and tiny cut-off denim shorts.
Inside the magazine, the star had a chance to indulge her passion for her favourite fashion staple - denim.
Hilary got to wear her beloved material and be a little sexy in one shot, wearing a denim Guess Moto Zip Up Corset.

Race #1 | North Tahoe Challenge
North Tahoe High School
August 28th, 2016
Tahoe put on its best face for the first-ever Nevada League mountain bike race. Over 150 riders, from as far away as Mammoth and as close as Tahoe City, descended upon the world-class trails adjacent to North Tahoe High School for the Tahoe Challenge. They were met by bright blue skies, perfect racing temperatures, and more than just a couple of yellow jackets! But other than a few run-ins with one of Mother Nature's questionable species, the Nevada League's first race was an unqualified success. A friendly and supportive vibe buoyed nervous riders before their races, and supported tired and satisfied riders afterwards. Parents, grandparents, coaches, friends, teachers, and the community at large all came together to create an amazing experience for our middle and high school students. Mother Nature herself, perhaps feeling bad about all of the yellow jackets, helped out with a little rain a few days before the race, keeping the decomposed granite soil of Tahoe from becoming full-fledged moon dust.
Parents, grandparents, coaches, friends, teachers, and the community at large all came together to create an amazing experience for our middle and high school students.
The course itself was beautiful, with a finish line reminiscent of an Olympic mountain bike race and plenty of viewing opportunities for fans. Races ran so smoothly that it was hard to believe this was the inaugural Nevada League event. Representatives from NICA, the national organization of which the Nevada League is a part, were on hand all weekend, guiding the Nevada League's launch. Their presence certainly helped the event become such a success. But most of the credit must go to league founder and director Doug Bedient who has worked incredibly hard for years to make high school and middle school mountain biking in our area a reality. Thanks Doug! Post-race, volunteerism reined supreme as parents and coaches from all of the participating schools jumped in to help clean up the venue before the awards ceremony. From the bottom to the top, everybody involved with this fantastic day deserves kudos!
The races themselves began with the middle school girls. Seventh grader Astrid Crow of the Reno Composite team nipped Ciara Wing of Truckee High School with Astrid's teammate, Abby Swall, taking the 3rd spot on the podium. The middle school boys raced in two separate groups. The lower division of the middle school boys raced two laps of the course, while the advanced middle school boys completed three laps. Truckee's Matt Seline finished just ahead of Mammoth's Aidan Le Francoise, with Matt's teammate Jake Solberg finishing 3rd in the lower division. Two Placer Foothills Composite racers, Khy Kinsey and Travis Boucher, took the top two spots for the advanced middle school boys with Truckee's Finn Loper hot on their heels for third.
On the high school side, freshman girls Mya Dixon of Galena, Lily Bradley of North Tahoe, and Emma Herschbach went 1-2-3, while in the sophomore girls race, the top three were Mikaela Echo of Galena, Adelaide Crow of Reno Composite, and Taylor Jenkins of Carson High. Truckee High proved its mettle once again in the girls JV race with a victory from Syra Fillat. North Tahoe's Anna Yamauchi wasn't far behind for 2nd , and Carson High's Mallory Otto took 3rd . Independent rider Aubrey Milner rode unopposed in the varsity girl's race, but still put up some strong lap times to earn the victory.
With 27 participants, the freshman boys group was the biggest of the day – boding well for the future of the Nevada league! Taking 500 points for the victory was Galena's Sam Ouzounian, followed closely by Incline Village Composite's Ryan Herhusky and Reno Composite's Crispin Hilliard. The sophomore boys winner and new points leader was Shane Swigard. Tobin Mcrae of Carson High was second about a minute behind, and North Tahoe's Andrew Bourke and Nathan Gracey were 3rd and 4th respectively. The JV race was nip and tuck the whole way, with close friends Drew Swall of Reno Composite and Matthew Nugent of Galena High battling it out. At the end, Nugent took the well-earned victory.
The boys varsity race was also hotly contested. Alta Alpina Composite's Danner Hillman led the first two laps with Galena High's Austin Smith just behind. Cooper Anderson of North Tahoe lurked 30 yards behind. Anderson charged up the "Purple Trail" climb to pass both Hillman and Smith on the last lap. Nevada League fans screamed for their favorite as these three young men fought for the victory. It wasn't until the last climb that Smith was able to surge ahead to claim the win, followed closely by Anderson and Hillman. An exciting first Nevada League boys' varsity race, to be sure!
Complete event results of all the amazing athletes who conquered the "Challenge" can be found at http://my4.raceresult.com/60297/
On Saturday, September 10th , the Ironhorse Roundup will convene at Hidden Valley. Wild horses will be our guides through the chaparral in the hills above Reno as the Nevada League comes to life again in its second incarnation. Moving from the granite dust, tall trees, and mountain air of Tahoe, riders will tackle the terrain of the high desert – a different, but welcome challenge. Who will be victorious is not yet decided, but what is certain is that the good vibrations of the event, the amazingly supportive parents and coaches, and the sportsmanship and good will of the competitors will be on display. We are all proud of the success of the Tahoe Challenge, and excited to see that success continue at the Ironhorse Roundup. Ride on!
Next Up – Ironhorse Roundup – Reno, NV – September 10th
Special thanks to North Tahoe High School for hosting our inaugural Nevada League event and Olympic Bike shop for providing technical support for all participants. Along with the regional land managers, setup and race day volunteers, including our onsite medical staff, we were able to come together as a community to make the race a success. We could not provide these events for our student-athletes without your support. Now stop reading this and go riding. Until next week…

THE United States on Wednesday condemned a reported petrol bomb attack on the home of an aspiring Zanu PF councillor a day earlier.
William Chapepa was hospitalised with serious burns following the raid on his home in Makoni West, Manicaland Province – it is thought by a single suspect – shortly after 2AM on Tuesday. Police said Chapepa – vying for a council seat in Ward 11 – woke up after a ball of fire landed feet from his bedroom.
On opening the door, he noticed a 5-litre plastic container on fire, picked it up and threw it away. But investigators say a mystery man picked it up and hurled it back at Chapepa, and his clothes caught fire from the petrol spray. He was hospitalised at Rusape Hospital where he remained on Wednesday.
In a statement, the US embassy said it was "deeply concerned about the alleged petrol bombing" which came barely two weeks after the house fire death of a 12-year-old boy in Headlands – originally blamed on Zanu PF militants – but later revealed by police to have been the result of an explosion of tobacco chemicals.
The US embassy said: "As in the case of the death of Christpower Maisiri, the son of an MDC-T Headlands district deputy organising secretary in February, this terrible occurrence is an opportunity for the Zimbabwe Republic Police to conduct a thorough investigation, and, if it is determined to be arson, to hold all responsible for this atrocity to account.
"Swift professional law enforcement work to bring the perpetrators to justice is vital to reassuring Zimbabweans that their political leaders sincerely want, and will insist on, peace and peaceful elections in 2013."
Zimbabweans vote in a referendum on a new constitution on Saturday. Political leaders are anxious to see the vote pass peacefully, which could augur well for general elections set to be held in July.
Police chief Augustine Chihuri has named Senior Assistant Commissioner Lee Muchemwa as the 2013 elections commander, aiming to avoid a repeat of the June 2008 presidential election run-off which was marred by violence and accusation that the police stood akimbo as militant foot soldiers of President Robert Mugabe's targeted his rivals.
Muchemwa said Tuesday he had a mandate from Mugabe, who has been speaking out against political violence, to "deal with malcontents and hooligans".
The US embassy statement added: "As Zimbabwe brings its Global Political Agreement to an end, non-partisan, efficient, and professional law enforcement is critical to gaining the confidence of the Zimbabwean people, neighbouring countries, and the international community.
"Respect for the rule of law and apolitical policing are also essential for creating the conditions for credible and non-violent Zimbabwean elections later this year."

Eves, B., 1997. The Colour concept generator: a computer tool to propose colour concepts for products. Doctorate Thesis (Doctorate). Bournemouth University.
Full text available as:
PDF (.pdf supplied by EThOS)
This thesis documents research undertaken into the design and evaluation of a computer tool (Colour Concept Generator) to produce colour schemes for products from verbal descriptors depicting a required aesthetic image or style. The system was designed to translate between descriptive words and colour combinations and aims to provide a form of ideas stimulus for a product designer at the initial stages of the design process. The computer system uses elements of artificial intelligence (AI) to `learn' colour and descriptor semiotic relations from a product designer based upon a proposed objective criteria or to reflect a designers personal style. Colour concepts for products can then be generated from descriptors based upon these semiotic relations. The philosophy of the research is based upon the idea of computing colour aesthetics at the front end of the design process and the design of an Al software mechanism to facilitate this. The problem was analysed with respect to the available literature on colour and a set of detail requirements for the system were presented. The system was then designed and code based upon the requirements and evaluated in terms of the overall philosophy, system methodology and application of computer media. The research is a contribution to the field of computer aided design regarding colour aesthetics and demonstrates the possibility of using an artificial intelligent machine to inspire and stimulate creative human thought. The Al software mechanism of the Colour Concept Generator is presented as an application of Al to aesthetic design. 11

The Collaborationists is an extensive exhibition of the multi-faceted works of Canadian artists Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins. Comprised of major installations and kinetic sculptures, as well as a selection of paintings and an audio station, this landmark exhibition highlights the recent production of this highly insightful artist duo. Drawing from the theories of mid-century modernist art, with a focus on information as a subject, the works explore intellectual subjects in a refreshingly playful manner.

The Oracle-BEA deal: Expert analysis
Oracle's acquisition of BEA Systems Inc. is likely to make the merger-happy database and business applications giant the market leader in enterprise middleware, and IBM and SAP are unlikely to take the threat lightly, according to one IT industry expert.
"SAP's NetWeaver is among the weakest of middleware platforms, despite [the fact that it is part of] one of the strongest ecosystems," said Ray Wang, a senior business applications market analyst with Cambridge, Mass.-based Forrester Research Inc. "[And] IBM will be threatened by an Oracle dominance in middleware."
Oracle's planned $8.5 billion takeover of BEA also highlights just how important middleware is to the big players' software marketing plans.
"Each vendor's last mile solutions depend on a strong middleware tool and a community of individuals and solutions providers who build and extend the platform," Wang said. "[The] acquisition also marginalizes SAP NetWeaver's role as a standalone middleware solution."
Wang added that Oracle probably sees BEA's attractive customer base as a means to further its "vertical ambitions."
"BEA brings high end custom development clients to the table," Wang said. "With a blue chip base of the best internal IT shops — those in telecom, financial services, and public sector — Oracle or any acquirer could cement its leadership in middleware over IBM, Microsoft and SAP. These custom development shops represent the best and brightest user base and the most lucrative."
The bottom line?
"Oracle's long term merger strategy centers on gaining the biggest installed base around not only mission critical applications, but also middleware," Wang said. "At the end of the day, it's also about selling more database and gaining the largest share of the IT wallet. We expect accelerated consolidation along key battle grounds of middleware platforms such as Master Data Management, business intelligence, portals, business process management, and other information management tools. Don't expect the competitors of BEA to sit still."
Do Wang's points make sense? Is Oracle a good fit for BEA? Let us know.

Went for lunch and shopping during June school holiday with my children. When without DH along we will opt for western meal as he is a more traditional man who only goes for Chinese meal.

Time flies and looks like we had just celebrated Father's Day, that was 1 year ago. This year Father's Day is a joyous occasion as my eldest girl had graduated and is guaranteed a job even at this downturn economy. She has started working since April and offered to sponsor dinner.
Crystal Jade Restaurant offered different set menus which we settled for a 5 pax set. The service was attentive even though the place was crowded.
Big mushrooms fried with springy fish bladder and vegetables. The mushrooms were big with good bite.
Large prawns fried in salted egg yolk. The flavor of the yolk was very distinct and was the best dish of the night.

How to Install Bathroom Accessories on Ceramic Tile

Bathroom accessories can be difficult to install on ceramic tile; the tile is difficult to fasten to, and choosing a fastener can be tricky. Here are some steps to help you finish this task successfully.
1Choose the accessories you need to install. These will often include information such as their location, mounting height, and a template for drilling holes to anchor them.
2Determine the best method for drilling holes required for mounting your accessory, and the best anchor to secure the device.
3Use the supplied measurements or template to lay out the location for holes you will need to drill for your installation. Make sure the layout is level and plumb, so the fixture will look pleasing when it is installed.
5Keep the drill cool while drilling through the tile by dipping it into water frequently. This will also decrease the amount of debris that may collect on the drill bit, allowing it to drill more efficiently.
6Drill all of the holes needed, then tap an anchor into each hole, driving it flush to the surface. Be careful to strike the anchor cleanly with your hammer, since a miss may crack the tile. Hammering softly will decrease the chance the tile will be vibrated enough to crack the tile's joints.
8Hold the accessory in position and fit the screws through their mounting holes, then use a screwdriver or screw gun to tighten them.
9Check the appearance of the mounted accessory to make sure it looks right, and that it is level/plumb.
10Clean up dust and debris from the floor and wall. Do this immediately, since this dust can stain surfaces if it becomes damp or wet before it is removed.
11Remove protective films or coatings when you are satisfied that it looks good.
Community Q&A

Some of the Ideas You May Need To Make Bathroom Renovation Smooth
One important thing most homeowners consider when improving their homes is enhancing the condition of their bathroom. It is common that any homeowner will renovate their bathroom more often compared to other rooms of their house. The reason the bathroom is renovated often is that it is used more frequently than other rooms. One good way of increasing the quality of your life and adding more value to your home is by renovating your bathroom. You need to feel you have relaxed enough and gotten refreshed once you get into that bathroom to bathe.
It is important to agree that you cannot have a remarkable bathroom renovation before you have done the right planning. Most of the people who do exceptional bathroom renovations are those who read a lot of publications on interior design. A good bathroom renovation project begins by thinking about new bathroom fixtures and tiles. It is a great thing to be sure that the bathroom ideas you have come up with are cost-effective to avoid a stagnating project.
It is important for everyone to first think about where they would get the materials and items they need for the renovation project. Some of the renovation items you would require include lighting, fixtures, and faucets. It would not be possible to renovate your bathroom project if you haven't prioritized all the aspects that concern the new structure, plumbing, and electrical systems. As you move on with your renovation project, it is important to ensure you bear in mind the time the project would take, type of materials to use, tools to use and the project cost.
The other thing you need to know is that bathroom renovation cannot be done by someone who doesn't have the right skills. If you don't hire an expert with the right skills, it would be hard for them to change the paint, old tiling, water fixtures and plumbing system as you would have wished. It is not possible for the renovation experts to come up with a great re-layout without having to strip the entire bathroom in the first place. If you don't mind about how the bathroom was designed, it would be hard to come up with fixtures as well as lighting that would match it.
For those who use hot water for various uses, it would be important to consider the shower heads that are effective in saving water. For any do-it-yourself renovation project, it is always a good idea to know the entire cost before you do the first thing. It is great if you can allow the experts who renovate bathrooms to do it for you.

There's no better way to build up excitement for a device than by incorporating it into some historic moment, and that's exactly what Samsung did with the Gear 360. Casey Neistat took Samsung's 360 degree camera to the Oscars just a few days ago and managed to capture Leonard DiCaprio's first ever win for his role in The Revenant, all in 360 degree video.
And, of course, it got uploaded to YouTube, which also shows off YouTube's ability to play 360 degree videos. Watching it in a normal YouTube window is a little weird, since it basically just looks like a distorted fish-eye angle, but if you have a browser capable of watching it in surround video, it's worth checking out.

You come home, find a box on your door and you know it is about to be a happy mail day.
Try on the pieces. The ones you love are to keep and the ones that are not so loved will simply be sent back...with no shipping charge! You can also send your stylist specific notes on a "theme" to pack. This is great if you have a wedding or photoshoot coming!
Unfortunately, they were really long and had to be rolled. Since it is getting closer to winter, I dont want pants I will have to roll because I will turn into an icecube (no exaggeration)
I actually went back to my style profile and requested that jeans not be sent only because 99% of the time, I have to find super short legged jeans in order for them to not drag across the ground.

Taste of Home Pineapple Curry Chicken
This recipe has 19 ingredients. It takes 25 minutes of prep and six hours of cooking time and makes 6 servings. I made one major modification to this recipe. The price of bone-in chicken breast halves was higher than I cared to spent. It would have cost approximately 20 dollars for 6 breasts, so I chose to use bone-in thighs instead, which were less than half the price. I had to go to multiple stores in order to find light coconut milk, our area only had regular full-fat. Finally, I chose not to top the curry with basil and toasted coconut. I followed the remainder of the recipe as written.
Substituting the chicken thighs for the breasts worked well and the chicken was very moist. The taste of the curry was very mild and kid friendly. My husband felt that the flavor was a little too mellow, but would be perfect for someone that wanted to try curry dishes that didn't want a strong/spicy curry flavor. If you like more curry flavor in your dishes I would recommend adding a lot more curry powder than the 3 tsp. recommended by the recipe. Overall, I liked that the crockpot did all the work for me and the prep was easy. My kids ate their servings and liked the mild taste.
For the recipe go to Pineapple Curry Chicken.
