microsoft announced that its third-quarter income rose 2% compared to the same period last year. despite the profit, microsoft warned that next year won't be as bright. the company still has hopes for the box, forecasting sales of 9 million consoles by the end of the fiscal year. of course, analysts say the only way that can happen is if ms cuts the price of the box. although the company refused to talk about cuts, the chief financial officer, john connors, said, "we will do whatever it takes to be competitive in the market." the article has a lot of details on microsoft's bottom line, but all that really matters is that it appears to remain committed to the box, no matter how much money it hemorrhages.

|license 6.0 still robbing companies to support xbox. (8:34am est thu apr 17 2003)
it is too bad that microsoft did not do a division by division breakdown of its earnings/loss. they are trying to hide how much xbox has lost.
"no one makes investor statements more user friendly than microsoft. it does a terrific job, presentation-wise, and other companies should take heed. but even hp's labyrinthine earning statements break down sector-by-sector performance in detail, so investors know which parts of the business are making money, and which are not. "
i guess we will have to wait for the sec filing by microsoft to see how much xbox and other division has lost and how much license 6.0 is buoying up failing divisions. – by

it would be just offering to lose more money. people still buy sonys worst product ever. 3 of 4 fail a 2 week burn in period. nintendo has the most to win. they're already giving way lz,wind walker away with purchase of a gc. when they dropped the price to 99l in the uk, they went to #1. if they drop the retail price to $99, with the used/referb price already at $79, i'm buying. – by video gamer

|microsoft has a nice edge… (11:16am est thu apr 17 2003)
not only can they break the law with apparent impunity, but they can then turn around and use the profits from their illegally-obtained holdings to prop up their failing forays into other markets.
before the microsoft apologists decide to jump all over me: there's nothing at all inherently wrong with using the profits from one division or product to fund another. companies do that sort of thing all the time. the problem i have is that much of the cash which microsoft has was obtained using methods that were found to be illegal in court, and yet microsoft wasn't punished at all for doing it.
had justice actually been served in the doj versus ms trial, i suspect the xbox would be having serious funding problems…
|can you imagine (11:31am est thu apr 17 2003)
thaink about just how -well- xbox would have sold had it been able to connect to the internet as a browser and would have usb ports and a real gui with application support. the friggin thing is a computer after all. it is ridiculous the way all you can do with it is play games, when it is capable of so much more.
if ms were to offer up a package including a wireless usb keyboard and mouse, an xbox usb to usb b cable for a printer,and xbox office xp with a gui, i would be all over it! even if it were to cost another $300. – by steveb
|steveb (11:43am est thu apr 17 2003)
well thats the last thing ms wanted to do with the xbox, notice how its marketed as a gaming console instead of a "computer entertinment system" like the ps2. once you add apps and all kinds of bells and whistles you might as well buy a pc. geez, you can pick up a $200 wal-mart pc to do what you want. – by siliconpi
|steveb @ siliconpi (11:59am est thu apr 17 2003)
i agree siliconpi, also remember what market microsoft are aiming at, at the end of the day. its not a computer in everones home, its the box in everyones house doing digital tv, games machine, simple apps, web access. im sure you could name more. this is where ms are aiming at and the xbox is the first step. to market the xbox as a computer would alienate the very people that microsoft need to buy the machine. to get microsoft into this market even if the future machines are very diffrent it needs a games machine now. – by uk geek

|irony, oh the irony… (1:36pm est thu apr 17 2003)
from the geek monty pythons:
microsoft has confirmed reports received by the register that windows 2000 pcs running a specific version of office 2000 have been hit by sudden, unexpected requests to continually register the software with microsoft.
the glitch could leave thousands of office users unable to continue using their software.
the problem appears to centre on the select customer – ie. non-academic volume licence purchasers – version of the office 2000 service release 1 (sr-1) running on win2k. the office 2000 product registration wizard appears when any office app is launched and invites the user to register. there's no way to get rid of the wizard other than filling in all the details each time or clicking register later.
the source of the office 2000 sr-1 registration wizard bug striking corporate pc users around the world appears to have been identified as glitch in code incorporated in the software to prevent requests for product registration after 15 april 2003.
instead, the bug displays the registration wizard, forcing users to continually re-register their product, or dismiss the dialog by clicking its register later button. alas office 2000 sr-1 only allows you to do this 50 times before forcing you to register the product. if you fail to do so, office enters what microsoft ominously calls "reduced functionality mode".
it's a glitch that's particularly galling to corporate customers who bought volume licences specifically to avoid having to deal with this sort of thing.

|future of xbox (3:40pm est thu apr 17 2003)
ok heres what i think. as you should be well aware of if you read this site at all regularly, the next windows version to come out is going to support a 'standard joystick' as well as the ability to play games directly from the cd without installing. can anyone say xbox 2? microsoft is going to set it up so that anyone devloping a game for the pc or xbox2 will have their games work on either platform. its a win win for developers they get the ease of developement associate with the oldest platform while being able to market to console games and computer enthusiats alike.

Alcohol Fermention of Yeast
I am writing a paper and my hypothesis is If the amount of corn syrup (substrate) is increased , then the amount of carbon dioxide produced from alcohol fermentation by yeast will increase over a shorter period of time. My data did not support this; however, I have been trying to find some similar research or data that shows, if I were to do the experiment for a longer period of time then the tube with the most corn syrup would have produced the most amount of carbon dioxide. CAN ANYONE HELP??? I haven't been able to find any data on this, but, I know that if it were left for a longer time that in fact that would happen because there is more substrate for the yeast to consume, but I need other data, not just that I know!!! Thanks!

At MoodFood Clinic we discuss your feelings and moods in the context of your biochemistry, the millions of chemical reactions taking place in your body every minute of every day. These tiny biochemical reactions in the body determine things like whether your body is producing enough serotonin to maintain a healthy mood. Your biochemistry determines whether you have enough dopamine to maintain your energy levels throughout the day without coffee, energy drinks, or cigarettes.
At MoodFood Clinic we unravel how biochemical imbalances in the body are contributing to your symptoms of depression and anxiety. We emphasize a root-cause approach and work by identifying and correcting your "upstream" biochemical problems so that "downstream" symptoms and overall health improve.
By addressing the upstream cause, symptoms of depression and anxiety begin to lift. Other seemingly unrelated symptoms often improve in tandem, problems such as acne, weight gain, back and neck pain, joint pain, fatigue, insomnia, headaches, and more! By identifying and correcting your root cause, we help the whole person feel healthier, stronger, and more sound.
To see whether working with us would be a good fit for you, contact us today.

Vermont's Vetoed Legalization Bill Could Still Become LawGage PeakeMay 30, 2017
Supporters met with Scott's staff on Thursday and Friday of last week to discuss possible changes identified by the governor when he vetoed the measure, according to a Seven Days Vermont report. Scott's chief requests were to increase penalties for driving under the influence and consuming cannabis around children, though he also indicated he'd like to extend the bill's timeline for studying full legalization in the state.
"These are not drastic changes," Dave Silberman, a Middlebury lawyer and legalization advocate who was in the meeting, told reporter Terri Hallenbeck.
If the process goes as planned, changes could be made in time for the Legislature's planned June 21 veto session, keeping alive a glimmer of hope that the state could legalize this year.
As passed by the Legislature, the bill S.22 would legalize the possession of up to an ounce of cannabis for adults 21 and older. Adults would also be permitted to grow up to two mature plants at home.
Advocates see promising signs in Scott's willingness to work on the legalization bill and are hoping for a quick turnaround on revisions.
"I think it's clear something different is going on here," Matt Simon, the New England policy director for the Marijuana Policy Project, told Seven Days Vermont. Simon was one of five advocates who met for about an hour Friday with members of the governor's staff. "We would have preferred it if they'd been at the table back in February, but the glass is half full … or three-quarters full."There are still potential obstacles, however. House Minority Leader Don Turner (R-Milton) has said he would be unwilling to suspend procedural rules in order to allow the bill to become law during the planned two-day veto session in June.
But Scott spokeswoman Rebecca Kelley noted there are ways around that obstacle. One option, she said, would be to extend the veto session beyond two days so that no such rule suspension is needed.
"We believe there's a path forward either way," she said.

"Kor Nitaly" – rock band
Rock music, where did it all start? Trust it or not a dark man who played dark music, initially established rock music in the mid-50s, this man was Chuck Berry. Rock got to be famous practically overnight and was acknowledged with open arms by the more youthful eras.
This was to a great extent because of more youthful eras who were energized by the considered having music that communicated their insubordinate streak and their longings to advance against traditionalism. This style of music is a long ways from the cutting edge rock music of today that has advanced throughout the decades and spread out into a large number of distinctive kinds and sub-classifications to make music that is more a lifestyle than amusement. In any case, the still unmistakable truth that stone is a type of self-expression and non-traditionalist yearning still stays solid even after this time.
Rock music became more grounded and more grounded with icons, for example, Elvis Presley, around this time a considerable lot of the dark shake and move specialists left the rock music scene and in their place were a large group of other white rockers with a style and look the greater part they could call they're own.
After Elvis Presley's acclaimed passage, other surely understood rock symbols and groups began appearing from all over the place, yet something was lost along the way, rockers began losing sight the entire reason that stone and roll had gotten to be prominent in any case, which was non-conventionalist and defiant mentalities.
Amid this time rock brought an enormous plunge with the most youthful eras, who were uninterested in a blend of down-home music, people melodies, and rock music. This was in the late fifties and performers, for example, Buddy Holly and the Everly Brothers were principal rockers in the stone music scene.
Generally as things were looking disheartening, Bob Dylan entered the scene amid the Vietnam War and held the heart and consideration of numerous young of the period with his tunes of the Vietnam War and social equality. Around this time, the Beach Boys changed the stone music scene with their new style of rock.
California had its own extraordinary twist on rock and move, which contained exceptionally refined and vocal harmonies; this style of rock music was a change from the compassionate yelling that had first been presented by the dark artists in the mid 50s.
It is difficult to trust that today's rock music started with a solitary dark man, singing a half and half kind of soul, and thrived throughout the most recent five decades to wind up a decision, as well as a lifestyle.
Rock music has advanced to turn into a variety of diverse styles and subclasses, which give satisfaction to a huge number of distinctive tastes in music. What's on the horizon for rock music may not be known, in spite of the fact that it is sheltered to say the stone music will even now be around for the following five decades.
Getting to concert-with style
Shows will be all the more leaving when you know there will be а limousine holding up fоr you when you get out оf your occasion, а loose аnd straightforward ride home is doubtlessly justified, despite all the trouble.
Going to donning occasion or show is fun, however arriving can be upsetting.
These occasions don't need to be a cerebral pain when you go in one of San Gabriel Limousine vehicles.
Ordinarily, limo leasing goes from $50 to $300 every hour, contingent upon the auto leased, and with a booking of least 3 hours. Heaps of organizations need a few hours to offer their best administrations conceivable, aside from the standard air terminal administrations.
Limo Renting Tips for the Best Experience
The expense of limo leasing
Ordinarily, limo leasing goes from $50 to $300 every hour, contingent upon the auto leased, and with a booking of least 3 hours. Bunches of organizations need two or three hours to offer their best administrations conceivable, aside from the standard airplane terminal administrations.
Is It impractical to discover a limo to lease for only 60 minutes?
The greater part of organizations need no less than 2-3 hours booked so as to lease their vehicles. This happens as a result of the expansive costs and expenses that are included when securing or keeping up the autos. Consider the way that a typical limo costs some place from $70,000 to $110,000. Leasing it only for one hour is not exceptionally compelling because of the time vital for planning and the driver's compensation.
On the off chance that it is lawful in the region you live in then the answer is "yes." There are laws that rely on upon every state when booking the limo, however, recollect that underage drinking is illicit regardless of what state you are in, and an expert organization won't permit it. So make sure you regard this standard in the event that you would prefer not to get captured.
In the event that we lease the limo for a show, do regardless we need to pay for the time we are at the show and not utilizing it?
When you are not utilizing the limo you have leased (supper reservations, donning occasions, shows, and so forth.) you will need to pay for the time you have leased regardless of the fact that you won't arrive. It doesn't make a difference in the event that you won't be utilizing the auto when you will be at the show, in light of the fact that the vehicle won't be accessible for other administration.
Remember that the driver is working in this industry simply like some other individual (barkeep or server). In any case, his part is much more essential. Consequently for this situation, the typical tip is 15-20% of the aggregate cost. Obviously, you can simply tip more in the event that you think your driver merits it. San Gabriel Limousine incorporate the tip in the aggregate cost of the administrations naturally. So when you reserve a spot, make a point to inquire as to whether the cost incorporates tip.

Ive had asthma all my life - I was growing out of it until I moved to another part of the country and it came back 10-fold. Ive managed to keep it controlled and am a competitive athlete.
I started with a dry cough last week so I took more Ventolin and continued as normal with my preventer. I went to my gp on Monday after my family nagged me all weekend, who said it was viral but 24 hours later I developed a chesty cough, headache, high temp, a cold, sore throat and ear ache. The cough is really nasty and I cant sleep or eat anything without violently coughing. Im taking both preventer and reliever and over the counter cough medicines but nothing is touching it. Ive had to stop training in my sport as if I get too hot, I violently cough too. Im getting very frustrated now and am starting to have feelings of shame like when I was a kid.
Any ideas on anything I can try?

Important Elements
The Positive Elements
Despite the fact that George makes plenty of bad decisions in his life, the viewer never gets the feeling that he can also be a big jerk. On the contrary, he comes across as a pretty likeable character, endearing to both kids and their parents. Sometimes he gives the feeling of being too encouraging to the parents (courtesy the sexual content), but for most part of the movie, he just tries to get along. He does encourage Barb, an emotionally fragile single mother, to have more self-confidence. He comes to the rescue of Carl, a married irresponsible man and just like a true gentleman turns down the advances of Carl's wife Patti when she tries to seduce him.
George appears in his best form in the later part of the movie when he starts focusing entirely on his son Lewis. Eventually he comes to the realization that it was his family and not his stardom that was the best thing to have ever happened to him. Despite tripping a few times, he gives his all into mending his dodgy relationship with his young son. He practices soccer with him in the rain, takes him on walks and even joins him on an excursion. He goes to the extent of renewing his relationship with Stacie (his ex-wife) for his son's sake.
Spiritual elements
The only spiritual element that we get to see in the movie is when Lewis talks about looking up his horoscope.
Sexual elements
This element comes across pretty evidently yet subtly in the movie. A former playing buddy informs everyone that back in his heydays George used 'to get more a-- than a toilet seat!' Things don't look like having changed much after George joins his son's soccer club as q coach. We see this element pretty loud and clear when Barb invites herself to George's home and forces him to have a look at her dating profile. Once he approves of it, she puts her arms around him, followed by pressing him against the window and then kissing him passionately. Although the viewers are not actually shown what happens next in the bed, but everyone does get to see George naked from the waist up, reading Barb's note that reads, "Thanks for breaking my slump."
Denise is another soccer mom in the movie who helps George. She helps him in preparation of his audition tape and then in bagging the position of a sportscaster at ESPN. She flirts with him inside a dark studio after the taping is complete. When George resists, she puts her leg around his waist and kisses him passionately.
Then when Carl and Patti encourage George to come to their home for a party, Carl can be seen bragging about his mistresses to George. Later, Patti sneaks into George's home and tries to seduce him by stripping down to her undergarments.

If you didn't see them on the sidebar here (or Twitter or Facebook) yet, there are two articles by Mandy Katz in the NYT today featuring fat-o-spherians. The first one references Linda Bacon, Fatshionista, Joy Nash, BFB, The Fat Nutritionist, and Deb Burgard. The second one, a sidebar on intuitive eating, features about the best photo ever taken of me — and we all know that's the important thing. Words, schmurds! (You can go here for an explanation of the giant finger growing out of my arm.) Small quibble about the eating piece: I'm not sure I agree with the assertion there that cave people didn't binge and starve — I mean, probably not on purpose, but wasn't that kinda the nature of their diet? In circumstances where food is scarce, intuitive eating isn't really a viable option. [See comments for why I was wrong.] Other than that, though, two pretty positive articles in the NYT in one day. Damn! Thank you, Mandy Katz!
Also, Lee Randall of the Scotsman wrote a fabulous column about Shapely Prose, including a shout-out to the Shapelings:
The site is also a noisy, companionable community, offering generous space to comments.
That makes it ideal for anyone who lacks a venue such as this one in which to vent their considerable spleen, bemoan injustice and inconsistency, or celebrate their folds and foibles. It strikes me that this is exactly the kind of safe haven that intelligent women need in life, regardless of how well or poorly things are going.
Thank you, Lee Randall — and thank you, noisy, companionable internet friends! (Also, I really need to redo the header to get A Sarah up there, because it is totally my fault that Randall only mentioned 3 co-bloggers.)
Open thread. Have at it.

In addition, Align introduced a series of supporting accessories such as engine starter, pitch gauge, aluminum helicopter cases, clothing line, etc, which quickly became the favorite amongst R/C helicopter enthusiasts. In the short six years, these products enabled Align R/C to position themselves as the premier brand in R/C helicopter industry.

text: I've no clue what makes a man love a woman. Like truly deeply love her. I've a feeling it has nothing to do with her body, her looks, her money, or even her ability to have children. If most men knew the moment they were going to fall I've a feeling they would choose not to. I truly believe the woman that has a man's heart is divinely picked. God, Himself, decides that this man and this woman will love. He also decides forever love. I have to think that it's God's work. Trying to understand man's work is too exhausting. No matter the size of your waist, butt, and breasts, if a man is meant to love you…he will. And like the song says "I can't make you love me if you don't." If I had tapped into this thought process of divine love, I could have saved myself 5 years and 3 months of heartache. It was not meant for the ex factor to love me…it was never part of God's divine plan. Free will can be a blessing and a curse. I chose for years to love he who was not choosing me…divinely. But I was afraid to let go because there was a part of me that felt like I will never love again. I've even said this to Willow, who loves to fall in love, many times. Each time she would say to not speak it into existence. True love will find me. God bless that Willow! She won't allow anyone to give up on love on her watch! I don't want to give up. I'm just too exhausted to wait on this divine love. There's a part of me that wants to keep choosing he who is not divinely choosing me. Why would anyone do this to themselves? Why would I want to continue to break my own heart over and over again? If there's one thing I could say to my younger self…I'd say that the divine love that God chooses for you is worth the wait! No prior broken hearts can stop a love so great. There will be bumps in the road but when God chooses for us we are fulfilled in a way we never thought we could. HIS vision is that large and that great. So to all my readers who chose for themselves and/or are still waiting on their divine love I say….choose he who is choosing you…divinely. I think I'm close and to remind myself of how we got here I will say: Jesus, commitment, and pork. Lol ~KJM trying to figure out when and how a man loves a woman on Hump Day. Be blessed!

"The consultant, the fact that he's a Columbus native is cool. That means that he has stake in the game. It's better than somebody that doesn't know Columbus coming in and trying to figure out what to do."
There will be three more meetings.

Syncytiotrophoblast (ST)
Definition - What does Syncytiotrophoblast (ST) mean?
A syncytiotrophoblast (ST) is the outermost layer of the trophectoderm (the cells surrounding the embryo at the blastocyst stage of development). The syncytiotrophoblast forms shortly prior to implantation and actively invades the uterine wall. After the blastocyst has fully embedded in the uterus, the syncytiotrophoblast goes on to develop the outer layer of the fetal portion of the placenta. If a woman's immune system identifies the implanting embryo as a foreign object it may result in pregnancy complications or even miscarriage.
FertilitySmarts explains Syncytiotrophoblast (ST)
Shortly before coming into contact with the endometrium, the trophectoderm (rim of cells encompassing the embryo) differentiates into two different layers of cells. The inner layer is called the cytotrophoblast (CT) and the outer layer is called the syncytiotrophoblast (ST).
The syncytiotrophoblast produces enzymes that break down the endometrial lining of the uterus. It embeds deep within the endometrium, coming into contact with the maternal blood supply. Once the blastocyst has firmly implanted in the endometrium, the syncytiotrophoblast grows quickly and entirely surrounds the embryo. It continues to erode uterine tissue and blood vessels. By around day 13 the early circulatory system connecting the uterus and placenta develops.
The syncytiotrophoblast secretes hormones and growth factors that promote fetal and placental development and growth. The hormones it produces include human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), estrogen, progesterone, and human placental growth hormone. Progesterone is also secreted by the corpus luteum. By the end of the first trimester of pregnancy, the placenta is able to produce enough progesterone on its own and the corpus luteum is no longer needed.
Typically, a woman's immune cells ignore the invasion of the embryo into the uterine lining. However, it's possible that the woman's body can incorrectly identify the embryo as a foreign object and initiate an immune response. This could lead to complications such as preeclampsia, preterm labor, or miscarriage.

Most of Amtrak train jumps tracks in S.C.
Most of a nine-car Amtrak train derailed near Spartanburg County, S.C. early Monday, the railroad says.
There were 207 passengers and 11 crew members on board, Amtrak reports, adding that no serious injuries were reported, though two people were hospitalized.
Officials tell CBS Spartanburg affiliate WSPA-TV the Amtrak Crescent was heading from New Orleans to New York when seven of the nine cars left the tracks. All remained upright, as did the train's two locomotives.
Heat and light were quickly restored, Amtrak says. Restrooms were available and there was food for the passengers as they waited for buses to take them to their destinations.
Passenger Jessica Smith told CBS News that at midnight, the train began rattling and shaking abruptly, waking passengers. She called it "traumatizing."
Smith says the approximately 200 passengers still on the train were told buses would take them to their destinations. Later, Smith said passengers werere moving to the first few cars that hadn't derailed and hoped to get moving again "shortly." She said the engine and baggage cars were on the track and may be the cars that get passengers from the scene.
Amtrak says the train left New Orleans Sunday morning and was due in New York City Monday afternoon.
The incident will be investigated by the Federal Railroad Administration Amtrak and Norfolk Southern, which owns, controls, maintains and dispatches that portion of track.
Norfolk Southern spokesman Robin Chapman said the Associated Press that the normal track speed in that area is 79 mph, and conductors were slowing down other passenger trains to "walking speed" in the area around the accident.
Chapman said he did not know how fast the Amtrak train had been going when it derailed.

"Man must harness nature in order to create a better life for himself. The Narmada Sardar dam is the new temple of modern India," booms a 1971 Indian government propaganda film, A Village Smiles. But the Adivasi, original inhabitants of the area under threat of submergence by this massive dam project, are not smiling.

Fabian Rucker
musician, composer, producer
" …an unfamiliar player from Vienna … Rucker was a revelation." (allaboutjazz)
Born 1985 in Salzburg/Austria,
Fabian Rucker grew up listening to his parent's record collection that included basically everything from the Beatles to Pink Floyd, from Bach to Arvo Pärt and from Bob Dylan to Janis Joplin. His family got him tons of instruments: whistles, recorders, drums and what not. Till the day the director of the local music school said: "He is a saxophone player!".
Not even a week later he had his first saxophone lesson followed by a visit to the local record store where he got his second record of all times (the first being "Peter und der Wolf") "Charlie Parker plays Standards". From this moment on he was obsessed with the idea of becoming a musician.
About 6 years later, when he was 15, he met his fellow friends and musicians at the Anton Bruckner Private University. Andreas Lettner (with whom he now runs their studio "Ziegelwerk" in Vienna and plays with in numerous bands), Phil Nykrin, Eva Klampfer (aka Lylit), Stephan Kondert, Matt "Pedals" Loescher, Peter Kronreif and many more.
He started to study not only saxophone but also composition, went to masterclasses to learn about Jazz, New Music and Classical Indian Music, listened to Coltrane, Shorter and the M-Base all day long and then found out that also Hip Hop won't harm is mental state of mind too much.
His goal soon became being able to move freely in a huge variety of musical concepts but develop his own sound, not only as a musician but also as a producer.
In 2009 he founded "Namby Pamby Boy" together with Phil Nykrin (rhodes) and Andi Lettner (drums). A collective of musicians and producers who include anything and everything and worship nothing.
They released 3 records so far: "Lunchbreak" (2011), "Greatest Hits Vol.2" (2014) and "Namby Pamby Boy" (2017 Babel Label).
Some years later he met the man who opened his eyes and new doors for him.
Master composer and drummer Bobby Previte.
Previte's unique energy, his ideas and concepts plus his immense generosity are a huge influence on Rucker.
Together they already worked on numerous projects including Bobby Previte's "TERMINALS"(Cantaloupe), that Fabian Rucker mixed and co-recorded featuring Greg Osby, Nels Cline, Zeena Parkins, Jon Medeski and SO Percussion as well as Bobby Previte's latest piece of work "Rhapysody"(Rare Noise).
He also produced Charlie Hunter's trio record "Let the bells ring on" featuring trombone legend Curtis Fowlkes and Previte.
Fabian Rucker's latest project "Fabian Rucker 5" is his first appearance as a bandleader and debuted in April 2017 at the well known "Porgy and Bess" in Vienna. The album will be released in early 2018.
Throughout the last years Fabian Rucker became an internationally performing musician and producer and worked in Europe, Asia and the USA.
He also worked as a lecturer at the universities of Vienna (mdw) and Linz (Anton Bruckner Privatuniversitaet).
Credits (as a musician and/or producer): Namby Pamby Boy, Bobby Previte, Charlie Hunter, Thomas Gansch, Lylit, Mike Gamble, Paul Gulda, Michael Mantler, Jim Black, Mühlbacher USW, Christian Muthspiel, Mathias Rüegg, Wolfgang Muthspiel, Mathieu Michel, Gerald Preinfalk, Wolfgang Puschnig, Harry Sokal, David Helbock, Alegre Correa, SK Invitational, Sunny Murray, Janus Ensemble Wien, Nouvelle Cuisine, Gerd Hermann Ortler Orchestra, Silke SILK Grabinger, Flip Philipp/Ed Partyka Dectet, Beni Schmid, Frank Schwinn, David Murray, Brittany Bosco, Erik Rico, Lia Pale, Peter Herbert, Philipp Nykrin, Andreas Lettner, Stephan Kondert, TEXTA, Blumentopf, Flip, Mono und Nikitaman, Russkaja…

But then we have another problem - in classic D&D, when you hit 0 you're dead. With players starting with single digit hit points, and often remaining in the teens for several levels, the game is extraordinarily lethal. This isn't the worst thing ever, but it does discourage players from bothering to invest in those characters until much later level, and that's a shame. Rather than tacking on the -10HP system, I had a thought for something I found slightly more interesting.
Alternate Mortality Table
When a character reaches 0HP, they have been dealt a potentially mortal blow and are taken out of action. The DM will consult the appropriate table below, but keep the actual result to himself while narrating the blow appropriately. If the PCs can get the character to relative safety and bandage the character up, then the results are revealed, which may even include that there was simply nothing they could do. If the fallen character is left behind, or the entire party is taken out of action, all characters are assumed dead.
D20 | EffectObviously, this table is mostly particular to melee mechanics, but it's served me very well so far. There's just enough nastiness on the table that being taken out of action is serious, but not enough that it guarantees that it will force you to retire a character.
1-3 | Instant death from obvious source - decapitated, crushed, disemboweled
2-5 | He's dead Jim - Despite the efforts of their companions, they go into shock and 10-20 minutes after the wound is dealt.
5-8 | It's in God's Hands Now - Could go either way as the character bleeds out from their wounds. After d3 hours, they may make a CON roll. If they pass, they survive.
9 | Severe Head Trauma - roll a d4. They lose 2 points of either (1)Dex, (2)Intelligence, (3)Wisdom, (4) Charisma.
10-11 | Sucking Chest Wound - the character is in for a rough night, but will ultimately recover, albeit at the permanent loss of 1 point of Con.
12 | Arm Destroyed - part or whole arm was either sheered from the body, or so badly destroyed as to require amputation. Roll a d6 (1-2) the hand (3-4) at the elbow (5-6) at the shoulder. Odds is left, evens is right.
13 | Leg Destroyed - part or whole leg was either sheered from the body, or so badly destroyed as to require amputation. Roll a d6 (1-2) the foot (3-4) at the knee (5-6) at the hip. Odds is left, evens is right.
14-15 | Limb Fractured/Broken - Roll d4 to determine which, limb is badly injured or broken providing an inconvenience and -1 to any rolls using it until healed.
16 | All Fun and Games - The character loses an eye, reducing their ranged attack by 1.
17 | Ugly Stick - Damage to the face leaving them monstrously scarred. -2 Charisma for reaction checks and hiring NPCs.
18-19 | Gnarled and Scarred - Character earns a few new scars, and will take -1 to everything for the next 24 hours, but comes out no worse for the wear.
20 | Sucker Punched - Character took a blow to the head that knocked them out, but they otherwise have no lasting effects.
My two cents.

This introductory chapter begins with an overview of the evolution of extreme right parties in Western Europe since the 1980s. It highlights the emergence of new extreme right parties that do not share any commitment to neo-fascism, but rather are anti-system as they undermine the democratic system's legitimacy through their discourse and actions. They also respond to the needs generated by post-industrial society that traditional parties have failed to address.
Keywords: extreme right, Western Europe, neo-fascism, political parties, ideology

Here is our pick for the top venues offering Balayage in Brisbane .
If you're looking for hair balayage in Brisbane, you've come to the right place. Being big fans of the look here at Bookwell, we know all the best salons in town.
Balayage is a hair colouring technique that came out of Paris in the 1970s, and then disappeared for a bit. Thankfully it's a style that's back big time, with a whole host of celebrities sporting this amazing look.
Similar to ombré, balayage is used to create natural-looking colour, that gets lighter towards the ends. This gives a sun-kissed effect that looks gorgeous, and does away with obvious regrowth. However, it is a very specialised colouring technique.
This is one you really don't want to tackle at home. The reason being that it is quite different to applying a solid colour, or even highlights. Rather than saturating the hair in dye, the colour is painted on freehand.
It takes a professional eye to know which colours to use, to suit your skin tone, and how to apply the colours for texture and movement. Done properly by an expert colourist, the results really are stunning.
Balayage is a great option for most hair lengths, and perfect if you are growing out a solid colour or foil highlights. It's not just for blondes, either! Brunettes, redheads, and black-haired beauties can all enjoy beautiful balayage highlights or lowlights.
The point is, it's not just about the colour. It's about bringing out your best features and making a fashion statement. Balayage says sophisticated, yet natural. It appears timeless and effortless. But only when it's done right.
If you live in the Sunshine State of Queensland, balayage is a great choice, as it totally says carefree beach babe! Teamed with a tousled cut and beautifully conditioned shiny locks, it's the ultimate look for year-round impact.
Ready to make the change? It's easy! Just browse our selected salons and easily book online at Bookwell.

Global Health Innovations and Security

The challenges of identifying, developing, introducing, and scaling global health solutions—whether they are medical devices, drugs, diagnostics, vaccines or consumer products—are innumerable, but almost always require a collaborative and multi-sector engagement. The aim of global health innovations and security thematic area is to advance cutting-edge thinking and implementation of innovative products, practices, and policies. It recognizes that critical need to advance the Global Health Security Agenda—which works to build capacity to address infectious disease threats—but may also include broader areas such as refugee and migrant health.
The Implementation Science Collaborative's work in this area could include involvement in clinical trials, the testing of new technologies, the testing and scale-up of new medicines or combination therapies, or providing other critical inputs into the research-to-use pathway. Given the multi-sectoral nature of this work, we foresee that opportunities for collaboration will arise among the health, security, environment, and agriculture sectors.

Long time followers of this website know that I started Stockton City Limits on a very simple premise: Stockton should curb excessive outward growth and instead prioritize infill development in the city's existing neighborhoods, with particular attention to Downtown Stockton. This is the guiding principle of pretty much everything I've written and what I believe to be the healthiest way our city should grow. I believe in this so much that I've dedicated my career to the revitalization of Downtown Stockton through my work with Ten Space. Steering growth to existing neighborhoods creates the most equitable communities, increases our city's tax base, and makes the most efficient use of existing resources, whereas expanding our city's foot print strains Stockton's limited budget while increasing our dependence on cars and pulling our residents further apart.
So it's with particular importance that I write about a decision that our city council will make in the near future regarding our city's growth. As you probably know, the City of Stockton is undergoing its General Plan Update—a process that in the end will guide how and where growth will occur in Stockton until 2035. On Tuesday, the city council will hear from staff on their progress and will also give guidance on which growth pattern staff should pursue as part of the General Plan.
To date, the consultants hired to conduct the update have held numerous meetings, workshops, surveys, and tours to hear what the citizens of Stockton want to see in this updated plan. All of that work has led to the recent release of the boring sounding but very crucial "Land Use Alternative Maps." These maps are essentially scenarios that city leaders will pick from to determine Stockton's growth.
To be blunt, there is only one scenario that is acceptable for Stockton. See for yourself:
The three scenarios represent vastly different views of what Stockton will become. They are roughly "status quo sprawl," "some sprawl," and "no sprawl." In my opinion, there is only one healthy and sustainable option of the three—Alternative C. This scenario allows for some growth on the periphery, but mainly focuses growth inward into the communities the sorely need it. Alternative C is the best chance for our city to revitalize our neighborhoods, leverage our historic buildings and lower our vehicle miles traveled to create ideal environmental and public health outcomes.
This is why "Alternative C" is the best
Alternative C gives Stockton the best chance to create meaningful infill and equitable communities. According to the consultants, the growth pattern in Alternative C will decrease solo driving trips by 17%, increase transit use by 24%, and increase biking and walking trips by 30%. In addition, Alternative C is also projected to lead to fewer vehicle miles traveled and less congested roadways than either of the other two scenarios.
Alternative C achieves these outcomes by nudging development to parts of the city that already exist. Instead of solely large-lot single family homes—the dominant development pattern of the last 50 years—Alternative C provides the greatest variety of housing options, leaving room for the single family homes, but also encouraging a diversity of housing options such as lofts, townhomes, and urban apartment complexes that today are virtually nonexistent.
If I want to live in a single family home, I have unlimited options in Stockton, but if I have the audacity to want to live downtown or in a more urban style residence, there are virtually no options. Alternative C will go a long ways towards alleviating this gross imbalance.
Moreover, you cannot be for downtown/infill and for excessive sprawl at the same time as too much outward growth undermines efforts to revitalize existing neighborhoods. In city with limited resources like Stockton, we have to make a choice: do we expand our city's footprint, thereby stretching our limited critical services such as fire and police protection, teachers, sewers, roads, etc, or do we build in areas that are already serviced? Do we allow low density housing that creates relatively little economic return for the city's general fund, or do we build up our historic communities where we can maximize the financial efficiency of land we already have? To me, the choice is clear.
We already have enough single family homes to meet demand for the foreseeable future
Some might see these three alternatives and make the mistake that we should allow for *some* sprawl because we need to grow somewhat to accommodate future demand. This is a grave error and ignores a very simple fact: Stockton has tens of thousands of single family homes already approved to be built within existing city limits.
Depending on the source, Stockton's growing population is expected to require between 19,000 to 41,000 new homes by 2035. The reality is probably somewhere in between those numbers, but it's crucial to point out that the city of Stockton already has about 20,000 homes approved to be built within the current city limits not including any potential infill opportunities. That means that under the most conservative population estimate, Stockton already has enough housing approved to serve our population to 2035, an astounding number that doesn't even consider the potential for infill development across the city. Given this scenario, it seems appropriate to conclude that there is absolutely no need to expand the city's current boundaries to accommodate more growth. And in Alternative C, there still is a bit of room to grow north along West Lane below Eight Mile Road. Given the realities of lots that are already entitled and the massive opportunity for infill, Alternative C is by far the best choice.
It's important to note that the General Plan can be changed in the future. If a big employer drops into our laps in five years and requires 100 acres, or our population booms beyond expectations and creates a housing shortage, the city has the power to amend the General Plan to accommodate this. We do not need to codify excessive growth in our General Plan today in hopes that we *might* need it in the future. What will happen in this instance is the oversaturation of the single family home market, which will drive our already neglected single family home neighborhoods into further decay.
What now?
All of this being said, our elected officials will ultimately provide guidance to staff on which alternative (or components of the alternatives) to pursue. This is where the public plays an enormous role in shaping our city's future. If you believe as I do that Stockton has grown too far for too long, and that we must invest in our existing neighborhoods to ensure the best possible outcomes for our city, now is the time to let your elected officials know how you feel.
To a certain extent, this has already occurred. Information gathered by city staff during the various workshops showed that residents preferred to keep the city's existing boundaries while prioritizing existing areas, South Stockton and Downtown in particular. The staff presented these results to the Planning Commission last week, here is one slide in particular that underscores that point.
This is a marked shift in public thinking that has occurred in a relatively short time frame. Instead of endless growth, the public understands that Stockton must think holistically when it comes to building capacity for our city. Land is a finite resource, we must treat it as such.
There is still plenty of time to make a strong impact on the outcome of the General Plan. This Tuesday, April 4th, the council will have a "study session" during the council meeting to hear about these alternatives. It's my hope that residents and organizations with a stake in our city's future show up to express their desires for a sustainable, inclusive, and smart General Plan Update.

Choosing The Right Bench For Bedrooms – Tips And Examples
One of the most practical (and therefore most popular) pieces of furniture that can be placed at the foot of a bed is the bed bench, sometimes called the "bedroom bench". The bedsteads not only provide comfort when dressing, but also help to create order in the bedroom. But choosing the perfect bench for the bedroom is not always easy. Color and style, the practical piece of furniture must match the design of the bed and form a unity with the interior. Also in terms of size and proportions, there is a lot to note. Read our tips and let the great examples below inspire you!
Table of Contents

Materials: Contrast Wins
Normally you would choose a bed bench after the bed is already in place – the exception is when you purchase complete bedroom furniture set. Interior designers recommend choosing a bedside bench for the bedroom that will stand out easily from the bed pad or vice versa. If your headboard is upholstered, then a wooden or metal bench at the foot of your bed might look nice. If your headboard is made of metal or wood, opt for an upholstered bench.
Silhouette: light and airy
Opt for a bed bench with elegant feet. Curved or crossed foot variants look particularly noble. A massive bench with heavy feet, on the other hand, seems too bulky and blocks the view of the bed.
With or without footboard?
Unexpressed design rules state that if the bed does not have a footboard, it makes sense to add a bench with a backrest. So you can lean on, for example, while wearing the pants. But that's not a must. Of course, the reverse also applies: If the bed has a high footboard, a bench without a backrest is recommended.
Width: The bed bench should be narrower than the bed.
So that the bench does not protrude on both sides of the bed (which would be both awkward and disproportionate), the bench should be narrower than the bed width. Allowed are 15 to 20 centimeters on each side. So, if you have a queen size bed (160 x 200 cm) that means your bench should be about 120 cm wide. For a king size bed measuring 180 x 200 cm or 200 x 200 cm, the length of the bench could be as high as 140 or 160 cm.
Height: The bed should not be too high
Usually a few inches lower than the bed is best. Here you have a bit more scope. For example, if the bed has a footboard, the bench should be the same height or less.
Depth: It depends …
"how much distance you have between the bed bench and the opposite wall. The piece of furniture should not block the way. A narrow and tall bench takes up less space in a small room.
Now you know what to look for when choosing the right bedside bench for bedrooms. And now we want to show you some inspiring examples.
Play with color and pattern!
If you want to furnish a large bedroom, you can not only buy a comfortable king size bed , but also a large bed bench. To further enhance the style of the room, designers create a strong contrast with color and pattern. In the picture above, we can see how beautifully the colorful fabric of the bench pad contrasts with the linen of white linen.
Pick another pattern in the room to create a consistent look. Here, the bank design repeats the same marble-like pattern used for the wall paneling behind the bed.
Gleaming surfaces
Through different foot and frame variants you can also set effective accents in the room. Cozy fabrics and shiny chrome in a gray-black neutral color scheme set the scene in this bedroom. The bench and the bed give the room a raised, modern look.
Warm metal colors such as gold, brass and copper are the best when setting up and decorating as an accent. Many designers combine them with pastel colors, light wood and fine concrete.
Create practical storage space at the foot
Here the bed bench gets a double function: from seating and shelf. The shelf offers space for reading material, blankets, pillows or other things.
This example shows how important it is to choose the perfect shape for the cot so as not to interfere with the openness of the room. This simple design allows the room to appear tidy and provides a nice frame for the bed.
Think about how you feel
Consider the emotional impact that bright and muted colors can create together in a room. Emotional design is an exciting topic these days. This unique ottoman at the foot of the bed brings character and soul into the quiet bedroom while creating a sense of coziness and luxury.
Create optical connection through color
When setting up and decorating it is important to create a uniform look through colors. It is therefore advisable to choose a color that can be found in the pillows, the art and the bedside tables. Let these pieces be your splash of color and keep the rest of the palette neutral. This creates an optical balance.
Alternatives to the bed bench: As long as the functionality remains
If a long bench does not fit your needs, you could always place a few stools or two shorter benches at the foot of your bed. When choosing, you should stick again to the interior design style in the bedroom.
Two stools with storage space
A bench with a lid can often seem bulky. However, if you do not want to go without the storage space, you can use two stools instead of one seat. In the stools can also store various things.
Floor cushion
Floor cushions are family and pet friendly, but they often appear out of place – such as in the middle of a room.
A simple (and stylish) solution: the floor cushions at the foot of the bed. They offer a nice difference in height as the eye moves through the room, and have an interesting Shibori pattern.
Wooden chest provides an antique charm
Another alternative to the bed bench is the wooden chest. The chest is ideal for stowing blankets and pillows and is a real gem. If you are a fan of classic country style, this model will fit perfectly with you.
