Darkstone Preview
Darkstone, a PC role-playing game and a Diablo clone of the first order, is part of Take 2 Interactive's budget lineup.
We'll begin emailing you updates about %gameName%.
The bargain bin has never been a publisher's sought-after display case. Typically filled with software so underwhelming that no one would buy it at full price, the bin is regularly the realm of boring movie licenses and day-old fads like the Deer Hunter clones. Strangely though, a shift in the video game market is occurring. Like Target and Wal-Mart are to Nordstrom and Macy's, budget software is to high-priced video games. In a bold move, Take 2 Interactive was one of the first major developers to willingly make the jump to the discount bargain bins, rolling out four dirt-cheap games for the PlayStation console this summer. Darkstone, a PC role-playing game and a Diablo clone of the first order, is one of these budget titles.
For those not familiar with the PC RPG, Darkstone turned out to be a well-received game in the computing community when it was released last year. Sure, it was labeled a Diablo clone by just about everyone who played it, but patterning yourself after one of the most popular PC games in recent memory isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially when Darkstone did it with some style. Now Take 2 Interactive hopes that the title's original developer (Delphine, maker of the classic Flashback on the Genesis) can do for the PlayStation what it did for the PC - make some rehashed hack-and-slash role-playing action a quality experience at the fraction of the price.
Darkstone's plot centers around the schemes of an evil monk, known as Draak, who has the ability to transform himself into a powerful dragon. As nice and convenient as it would be, you cannot defeat Draak through ordinary means. You can only overcome him after you've assembled the seven broken shards of the time orb. With the orb in your possession, you can face Draak in battle, and your weapons will be capable of wiping his evil spirit from the land.
Gameplay takes place over 32 dungeon-like levels in which you'll encounter 80 different enemies and make use of dozens of spells and fighting techniques. Like in Diablo, you create your character at the outset of your quest by choosing your gender and then one of four unique classes (fighter, thief, wizard, and priest). Gender factors into Darkstone in a unique way, as each class has subdivisions depending on whether you're female or male. A character in the fighter class, for example, looks like a medieval warrior if you're male and an Amazon if you're female, and they will perform differently, making the distinctions more than just cosmetic. This gives you a total of eight original characters to work with, which adds variety and replay value.
Darkstone's developers determined which elements worked and didn't work in Diablo, and they try to give you the best in Darkstone. Just like Diablo, Darkstone offers hours of mindless hacking and slashing. Unlike Diablo, though, Darkstone uses planned dungeons, though items are randomized through a quest generator. Also unique to Darkstone is simultaneous two-player control. You design and manage the actions of both characters onscreen at the same time. An intuitive system made this fairly easy to do in the PC version, so considering that Delphine was behind both the original PC and PlayStation conversion of the title, we can expect it won't mess up a good thing.
Darkstone's graphics were good on the PC, moving silky smooth in high resolutions on the more capable machines. Darkstone's engine should essentially remain unchanged from the PC version in spite of the PlayStation's lower resolution. Characters will be rendered with simplistic but colorful polygons, and the dungeons will be a bit more varied than the endlessly dark corridors of Diablo. Though the PlayStation's Darkstone may not stack up side-by-side with its PC version, it should definitely show up Diablo's 2D sprites.
It's easy to remain skeptical about Take 2's promises of action-packed quality gaming at some seriously budget prices, but Darkstone may prove the dissenters wrong. With the game's original developers fully behind the project, and the game already an established success on the PC front, you may have something to look forward to on October 2, when Darkstone arrives at stores with a $10 MSRP.

Exane BNP Paribas' banking expert Ian Gordon said today that the shares may be "overcooked" and advised investors to dump the taxpayer-controlled bank's stock.
RBS surges to high as bank confirms bonus overhaul
"Whereas we do still see some residual relative value in the buoyant UK banks, RBS does not form part of that view — its share price appears more than up with events'," said Gordon. He also predicts that the government may be tempted to sell some of its stake to claw back some cash.
He has a 50p price target for the shares, which were today changing hands at 58.4p, up 2.6p.
The rest of the banking sector was also better as investors were optimistic about the first-quarter earning season which kicks off this Friday with numbers from Barclays. Lloyds Banking Group gained 2.1p to 70.6p, and Barclays was 9.7p stronger 372p.
Shares in London rose thanks to gains in Asia overnight and amid growing hopes of an end to Greece's financial woes. The FTSE 100 index rose 27.8 points to 5751.45.
But BSkyB claimed the Footsie's wooden spoon, off 12½p at 617½p. The satellite broadcaster, which posts quarterly figures on Thursday, suffered from a warning from Jefferies International that the numbers will be "uninspiring". Jefferies predicts that new subscriber numbers in the post-Christmas quarter will be significantly below last year's and has lowered its rating on Sky's shares from buy to hold.
The results are likely to be over-shadowed by Sky's battle with broadcasting watchdog Ofcom, which has ruled that the pay-TV group must sell its premium sporting content to its rivals at a significant reduction to current prices.
Sticking with the broadcasters, Adam Crozier's first day at the helm of ITV was greeted with a positive reaction, with the shares ticking up 0.3p to 69.8p. The company behind Britain's Got Talent is said to be considering a bid for rival Five, owned by RTL.
Media analysts at UBS said that a tie up would be welcomed by the market, but that such a deal is unlikely to happen soon. It could also raise concerns with competition regulators.
On the FTSE 250, Chloride Group was the star performer as it spurned the advances of an American suitor. Shares in the maker of back-up power equipment rocketed 86p to 295½p — or 41% — on news that Emerson Electric had prepared a hostile takeover bid.
Chloride shares rocket as it rebuffs Emerson move
The energy giant's offer values Chloride at 275p a share, but investors — and Chloride's bosses — clearly believe Emerson will have to cough up more. Shares advanced far beyond the bid price and management said the offer "significantly undervalues the company".
Talk in the market was that Emerson — or another suitor if hopes of a bidding war prove to have any foundation — would need to offer around 325p to convince investors.
Strong earnings figures boosted mid-cap engineers Weir Group, 90p stronger at 1026p, and Cookson Group, 40p better at 607.6p.
After-sales rush pumps up Weir profits outlook by £30m
The possibility of further consolidation among the housebuilders buoyed the sector after Hugh Osmond, the entrepreneur, said he was interested in privately owned Crest Nicholson.
Shares were also helped by a positive trading update from Redrow, which said it would be back in the black in the second half of the year. Barratt Developments climbed 7.2p to 139.1p, Taylor Wimpey advanced 1.9p to 45.9p, Bovis Homes gained 17.3p to 457.5p and Bellway was 24p stronger at 824.5p and Redrow was up 2.3p to 153.4p.
Back among the big boys, Home Retail Group marked time at 294.8p ahead of results on Wednesday. Talk has spread that the Argos and Homebase owner could return some of its £400 million cash pile to investors in a bid to fend off rising expectations of a break-up or takeover. But Execution Noble poured scorn on the talk — as well as on takeover speculation. "We are sceptical of rumours of a return of cash to shareholders, as the company has repeatedly said it does not regard itself as under-leveraged," said analyst Caroline Gulliver in a note to clients. "Speculation that Wal-mart might be interested has damped and we see few attractions in Home Retail for private equity at the current valuation."
Also on the top flight, testing group Intertek fell 24p to 1505p as talks ended with Norway's DNV to buy its business assurance arm. With the deal expected to be done in shares, DNV was expected to become an investor in Intertek.
Trader talk
US fund manager Harris Associates has upped its stake in retailer Carpetright to 5,380,062 shares from 4,783,204 giving the US investment group an 8% stake valued at just under £47 million. The fund specialises in hunting down undervalued companies and groups which it believes have potential to benefit from restructuring.
Carpetright, whose chairman and chief executive Lord Harris is not related to the fund, bought Allied Carpets last summer after its rival went bankrupt. But with so many consumers still worried about parting with their cash and house sales still weak, Carpetright warned last month that its profits are unlikely to match market expectations. It said the size of the carpet and flooring market had shrunk by 20% in the first couple of months of the year. Clearly Harris — which has been building its stake over the last few months — thinks that is a problem the country's largest flooring company can overcome.
Tomorrow's agenda
The explosion and fire at a drilling rig for BP's Macondo project which caused it to sink in the Gulf of Mexico last week is expected to overshadow the oil major's first-quarter figures. The catastrophe may also remind investors of the fire at the firm's Texas City refinery in 2005 which left 15 workers dead. BP spent years re-building its reputation afterwards.
Lloyds Banking Group faced the ire of the Association of British Insurers (ABI) last week over concern about its bonuses. "There is some residual concern among some shareholders in the way the remuneration committee made its decision on bonuses," Peter Montagnon, director of investment affairs at ABI, told investors. That will be one of the issues shareholders will be thinking about when Lloyds — which is 41% owned by the taxpayer — reports a first-quarter update tomorrow. The bank last month said it might make a profit during this year.
The ABI has also put executive pay in the spotlight at Reckitt Benckiser, the manufacturer of cleaning products such as Vanish, Finish and Cillit Bang. Reckitt's chief executive Bart Becht earned £90 million last year and £36.8 million the year before, which led the insurance group to tell its members to think carefully before voting in favour of pay proposals at next month's annual meeting. However, good trading results tomorrow might give the firm's board some breathing space.
Now is the time to snap up shares in Costa Coffee owner and hotel group Whitbread, say analysts at Panmure Gordon. Ahead of the firm's preliminary results on Thursday, Panmure has ramped up Whitbread's target price from 1840p to 1935p, mainly because it expects better trading from budget hotel chain Premier Inn. The broker expects Premier Inn to record an improvement in revenue per available room, forecasting growth of 2% compared with its previous assumption of the figures staying flat. Last month chief executive Alan Parker said he was retiring from Whitbread after six years as boss.
Pubco Punch Taverns is "not investment grade" according to Seymour Pierce, which tells shareholders to dump the stock. At a recent trading update Punch said net profit was down 22% and flagged up a theme of "stabilisation", with the management claiming that the sale of pubs from the core estate was virtually finished. But Seymour Pierce reckons "the message was mixed" because the firm's management also admitted that pre-tax earnings are likely to decline "well into 2011". Analysts say sell shares in the group, and name a target price of 70p.
Keep hold of shares says Altium Securities ahead next week's AGM for the specialist in heat treatment, materials testing and metallurgical coatings. Altium flags up "volatile demand patterns" hitting the engineering firm's bottom line, noting particularly that the European car market is expected to decline by around 9% this year. Analysts add that Bodycote's costs will rise materially this year which "adds an additional hurdle." Altium says the share price "is clearly anticipating upgrades" but says if that happens investors should take some profits. But in the meantime, hang onto the shares, says the broker.

Most people know others whose quality of life has been changed by going on psychiatric medication. When I try to tell them all that I have learned in a decade of research and personal experience about antidepressant withdrawal and long term use, I am met with shock and disgust. After all don't I want people to get better?
The more scientific types start demands for peer reviewed journals describing double blind clinical studies. They do not accept non scientific sites. I was told that Dr.Healy's site is not reputable. I also directed them to this website and madinamerica.com
We here know, that there are no studies that have been done, due to the fact that the whole industry is in denial about these drugs.
What is the best way to respond to those demanding valid research and proof?

Chevy introduced two new engines in 2004, the 3.5-liter V-6 and 3.5-liter I-5. These two engines were the replacements for several older Chevy engines: the 3.1-liter V-6, 3.4-liter V-6 and 4.3-liter V-6. The V-6 was used in several cars between 2004 and 2011: the Malibu, Malibu Maxx, Monte Carlo and Impala. The I-5 version was used in the Colorado in 2004 and 2005.
The Malibu and Malibu Maxx were sold with the same version of the 3.5-liter engine. This engine was used in these cars from 2004 through 2007. This engine had a bore --- cylinder width --- of 3.7 inches and a stroke --- piston travel inside the cylinder --- of 3.31 inches in 2004, and 3.3 inches from 2005 through 2007. This engine produced 200 horsepower (hp) at 5,400 rpm in 2004 and 2005; 201 hp at 5,600 rpm in 2006; and 217 hp at 5,800 rpm in 2007. The torque was rated at 220 ft.-lb. at 3,200 rpm in 2004 and 2005; 221 ft.-lb. at 3,200 rpm in 2006; and 217 ft.-lb. at 4,000 rpm in 2007.
Monte Carlo
The 3.5-liter V-6 was also placed in the Chevrolet Monte Carlo during the last two years of its production life --- 2006 and 2007. This version of the 3.5-liter engine had a bore of 3.9 inches and a stroke of 2.99 inches in 2006, and 3 inches in 2008. This engine produced 211 hp at 5,800 rpm and 214 ft.-lb. of torque at 4,000 rpm.
The Chevy Impala had a 3.5-liter V-6 installed as the standard engine from 2004 through 2011. This engine has a bore of 3.9 inches and a stroke of 2.99 inches in 2007, and 3 inches from 2008 through 2011. This engine produces 211 hp at 5,800 rpm in every year. The torque rating is 214 ft.-lb. at 4,000 rpm from 2007 through 2009, and 216 ft.-lb. at 4,000 rpm in 2010 and 2011.
The 2004 and 2005 Chevy Colorado's 3.5-liter engine is completely different than the others. Instead of being a V-6, this engine is an inline five-cylinder (I-5). This engine has a bore of 3.66 inches and a 4-inch stroke. The 3.5-liter I-5 produces 220 hp at 5,600 rpm and 225 ft.-lb. of torque at 2,800 rpm. This engine was replaced in 2006 by the 3.7-liter inline five-cylinder engine.

OMGWTFNZBS Review
OMGWTFNZBS doesn't offer a free public membership. If you want to get access to the site, you'll have to pay and they only accept Bitcoin. The site has around 5,000 members at last count.
Membership Plans
The basic membership plan is $10 per year, payable in Bitcoin. This is the only way you can join OMGWTFNZBS.
The paid membership definitely comes with advantages. You don't have to deal with advertisements on the site, making it a less cluttered interface. VIP members also get to download as much as they want.
Other advantages include:
- Release watcher
- RSS integration
- Advanced filters
- Adult content
- Sickbeard, NZBDrone and CouchPotato
The membership can take as long as twenty-four hours to be processed. When we signed up, however, the process was instant, so the delay clearly isn't a factor in all cases. If you want to get more details on the site, you can check out irc.servercentral.net, on EFNET, to chat.
Technical Details
This site isn't Newznab based. It's faster than Newznab sites, and that's really its most significant selling point. New releases show up quickly on the indexes. If you find yourself refreshing your NZB searches over and over again waiting for a recent release to show up, OMGWTFNZBS might be a good option for you.
The releases are added to the index by users. While this might seem advantageous at first blush, there are some accuracy issues involved. Essentially, you might get access to new releases more quickly than you would from other indexers, but you won't' have the type of accuracy you'd expect from a Newznab site.
OMGWTFNZBS requires that you buy a membership; there aren't any free options. This site isn't Newznab based and it tends to get new releases very quickly, at something of an expense where accuracy is concerned.
OMGWTFNZBS might be a good option if you're really keen to get the newest releases as fast as possible. If you're a stickler for accuracy—or you have a transfer limit on your USENET account—you might not tolerate getting a wrong binary now and then. However, if you just want releases and want them fast, OMGWTFNZBS might be a good choice for you.

The police are to be given sweeping new powers to stop and search people and vehicles for weapons, the Government announced yesterday.
An offence of persistent harassment will also be created to tackle racist abuse. The new law, which will provide for a maximum penalty of a six-month jail term or a pounds 5,000 fine, will also protect women from constant pestering.
Under the forthcoming legislation, officers will be able to search anyone where they believe violence is likely to break out - this is expected to include areas around football grounds, pubs, and public demonstrations. The move was immediately attacked by civil liberty groups who believe it may contravene human rights laws and will lead to black people being victimised. Labour called for strict monitoring of the scheme and warned it was 'open to abuse'.
The new stop and search powers have been introduced as an attempt to stem the sharp rise in gun and knife attacks. Police will need authorisation from a superintendent or inspector and will operate in a limited area. They are expected to target demonstrations by neo- Nazi groups, football hooligans, and places where drugs are sold.
The powers will last for up to 24 hours but can be extended by six hours if violence breaks out. Records will be kept of the ethnic origin of the people stopped.
At present police can stop and search a person or a vehicle only if there are reasonable grounds to suspect that a prohibited article will be found. The changes will be made as an amendment to the Criminal Justice Bill, which will be debated when the Commons returns on Tuesday. A second amendment will mean police can arrest people who whip up racial hatred by distributing racist literature. Officers will be able to search homes and property and carry out fingerprinting.
The offence of persistent harassment will be introduced as an amendment to the Bill when it reaches the House of Lords. This measure is considered an attempt to pre-empt amendments already made by the all-party Commons Home Affairs Select Committee that surprised the Government with calls for more radical proposals, including a new crime of racially-motivated violence, which would carry an extra jail sentence of up to five years.
Sir Ivan Lawrence, Conservative chairman of the committee, yesterday said he would continue to press for more far-reaching legislation.
David Maclean, a Home Office minister, said: 'People must be protected from thugs who carry guns, knives and other offensive weapons. These new powers will give the police the powers they need to prevent violence, not just react to it.'
The Police Federation yesterday gave its support to the increased stop and search powers. Others believe the powers hark back to the discredited 'sus' laws of the 1970s and early 1980s, which enabled police to stop people merely on the suspicion that they were committing an offence.
Andrew Puddephatt, general secretary of Liberty, said: 'The 'sus' laws - which can be compared to these new stop and search powers - did nothing to improve community relations, they only exacerbated the situation.'Reuse content

Hi all
In the topic description line of your thread, I am going to trial putting the type of birth you have posted about, unless it is already stated in the topic title.
Vaginal birth = for vaginal births
Assisted birth = for all forceps and ventouse births
Planned caesarean = for all pre planned caesarean deliveries (including those that dont make it to planned date). This covers those births that are medically indicated caesareans that weren't truly ELECTED by the patient.
Unplanned caesarean = generally those classified as Emergency Caesareans
Homebirth = planned or unplanned
Waterbirth = planned or unplanned
Hopefully this will enable people who are looking to read particular types of birth stories, to better access the information they want.
I will go back and edit those that have been posted since beginning of June initially and continue with those that are posted from now on to see how this works.
If you have any worries/issues/concerns with the above, could you please PM me.

Dear Parents/Guardian(s),
This year, all Richmond County schools are charged with completing their registration process earlier than in previous years. Accordingly, this letter is provided to give information that may be helpful in considering whether or not to include Advanced Placement (AP) courses as a part of your child's curriculum next year.
What is AP? Advanced Placement Program® (AP®) courses are college-level courses offered in high school. AP courses reflect what is taught in top introductory college courses. At the end of these courses, students take AP Exams—standardized exams that measure how well students have mastered college-level course work.
What are the benefits of taking AP Courses? AP can set students apart in the college admission and scholarship process by showing that they are willing to challenge themselves with rigorous work. Additionally, students who earn credit for advanced placement courses based on their AP exam score may save significant amounts of money and time in college. In addition to gaining subject-area facts, students also benefit by building skills in time management, research, communication, problem solving and analysis. Their creativity is also tapped as they address course challenges and students are better prepared for college-level work.
When can my child begin taking AP courses? In accordance with the College Board's recommendation, AP courses are available beginning in grade 10. Typically, AP World History is the only course available to sophomore students.
What AP Courses are available? At Davidson, the following courses are taught in grades 10 -12.
AP English Literature*
AP English Language &Composition*
AP Statistics
AP Calculus AB
AP Environmental Science
AP Biology
AP Chemistry
AP World History
AP US History
AP Studio Art: Drawing, 2-D Portfolio, 3-D Portfolio
AP Music Theory
AP Psychology
*Currently, all juniors take AP English Literature and all seniors take AP English Language.
Students also have the opportunity to take advantage of other AP courses not taught at Davidson through the Georgia Virtual School Online Program. In total, the College Board provides more than 30 courses.
How can a student enroll in an AP course? What are the requirements for AP Courses? Students in AP courses must demonstrate willingness, a solid work ethic and necessary academic preparation. To enroll in an AP course, students must:
What are other things to consider if my child wants to take an AP course? Given the rigor of AP classes, students who enroll in AP courses should carefully evaluate their extracurricular obligations. Students should be prepared to spend several hours beyond class time studying or completing AP coursework. Reading and research outside of class, tutoring sessions etc., are common activities for AP students. Additionally, students should pick courses that match their interests, talents and priorities. They should also think about courses they've previously taken and the ones they found to be most interesting and enjoyable.
Where can I find out more information about the AP Program? www.exploreap.org

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the predictive factors in detecting the possible degree of difficulty in laparoscopic cholecystectomy as well as possibility for conversion to an open cholecystectomy, pre-operatively, in order to take appropriate measures if laparoscopy is scheduled or select the patient who will require open procedure to avoid the possible complications which may result from using laparoscopic procedures in these cases. Recognition of these factors is important for understanding the characteristics of patients at a higher risk of conversion since they require longer hospital stay and place more demands on the health care facilities. Also the surgeon should keep a low threshold for conversion to open surgery in those high-risk patients.

Established in the year 1832, Longines was pioneered by Auguste Agassiz, in a small town called Saint-Imeir. Starting off as a pocket watch manufacturing brand, by 1867 the Longines factory was set up, now aiming towards long term brand stability. With gradual entrance into the international market, by 1876 it was able to engineer a mechanized form of production with a focus towards higher accuracy and precision.
With the start of the 20th century, Longines was now leaping towards new and more unique innovations. The year 1913, marked the release of its very first collection of wristwatches, soon followed by the introduction of its very first Quartz clock. Today, a globally acclaimed brand, Longines has celebrated over 180 years of presence, with a goal of reflecting performance, style and tradition.

To add to its alluring appearance, the dial is embellished with 12 stunning diamonds as hour markers, along with simple yet radiant black hands. The dial has been housed within a sturdy steel case of diameter 34mm, giving this piece of art a perfect finish. The unique dial is also protected with a scratch resistant sapphire crystal, assuring the timepiece great value.
This Swiss engineered timepiece has been designated with a quartz movement, making it highly accurate in performance. Built to be water resistant to a level of 30m, the timepice it perfect for daily use. With its unique finesse and modern style, this watch has been made to suit the needs of every bold and youthful man, making it a perfect adornment for every occasion.
The Longines Elegance Collection is an eloquent embodiment of the much-quoted Longines motto "Elegance is an attitude". Featuring timeless designs with sleek and graceful lines, the timepieces in this collection boast a craftsmanship as glorious as their rich history. Select designs of the rectangular, oval, or tonneau forms have been inspired by the balanced symmetry of the Art Deco movement, the admirable crusade that advocated art that was decorative without being ostentatious; proportioned without being too sharp.
Connoisseurs enjoy the privilege of choosing cases crafted with striking stainless steel or stunning 18-carat pink or yellow gold. There are also gorgeous pieces that feature a dual combination of steel and pink or yellow gold. For the ultimate lovers of luxury, extravagant masterpieces encrusted with Top Wesselton VVS diamonds make for highly covetible accessories.
Dials in lustrous Mother of Pearl, black, white and midnight blue form the heart of the timepiece. A generous offering of stainless steel bracelets, stainless steel and 18 carat gold bracelets, and alligator straps enables the wearer to realize their ideal vision of beauty. In certain timepieces, transparent casebacks let you observe the magic behind each momentum with a vision that is crystal in its clarity.
Timepieces in this edition function on a precise Quartz movement. A water-resistance of 3 bars promises uncompromising virtue inside and out. Functions are fairly uncomplicated and include hours and minutes or hours, minutes and seconds. A date window at 3'o clock gives you a holistic view of time in select pieces.

Sauk Rapids-Rice School District Enrollment Increases
Enrollment is skyrocketing in the Sauk Rapids-Rice school district.
Enrollment is skyrocketing in the Sauk Rapids-Rice school district.
Earlier this past month one school district has decided to limit their gym and health classes. The Elk River school board discussed cutting back on physical education and health classes required for graduating for more language and tech classes for grades K-12.
With a lot of items on the agenda, the Sauk Rapids-Rice school board held their organizational meeting this evening (Monday).
Parents and grandparents in the Sauk Rapids-Rice school district who want to volunteer in their child's classroom are now required to pass a background check. Superintendent Dan Bittman says the new policy went into effect on July 1st.
Area schools will soon get additional funding to help pay for all-day kindergarten programs. The state will spend an extra $485 million on schools.
Area superintendents want to reassure parents that their children are safe at school. This is the first day of classes since last Friday's deadly school shooting in Connecticut.
Today's classrooms are a lot more high tech than the old days of blackboards and calculators. Angie Kalthoff is the Technology Integrationist for the St. Cloud Area School District. She says a modern classroom is equipped with Smartboards, which are much more interactive.
The Sauk Rapids-Rice school district is expected to reduce its 2012 budget by about $760,000 dollars when the school board meets tonight. Superintendent Dan Bittman says the cuts are necessary because of a failed levy referendum.
It's one giant book club. The Sauk Rapids-Rice school district is launching their "One District, On Book" program today (Friday).

Because of this programs are extending scholarship offers earlier to hopefully secure a commitment from a recruit who has proven he deserves the scholarship offer.
"I still think we do our due diligence when it comes to offering scholarships," NC State recruiting coordinator Jerry Petercuskie stated. "We do our homework and make sure we have all our facts together, and then we're going to make the offer if it's due."
Pack Pride has published a series of stories over the past month looking back at previous recruiting classes to see if there is a correlation between landing early commitments versus late commitments when it comes to signees panning out.
The results have been mixed, and when we asked coach Petercuskie for his opinion he indicated that he didn't believe there was a direct correlation one way or another.
"I don't think that there is a definite correlation in terms of the best players are always the first guys you take," he said. "A lot of our kids we took late, Jamie Silva being one that comes to mind at Boston College who is now playing in the NFL.
"We had Sean Ryan who was a walk-on... when you think about the walk-ons who have been successful for us who are now playing in the NFL.
"You look at some of your early takes... no one knows the injury factor either," Petercuskie added. "It's a very, very difficult thing to measure when it comes to evaluating recruits. I think if you're going to do it in a honest way, if a kid gets hurt it wouldn't count either way, but if you stay healthy for your four or five years I don't know if there is a correlation."
Recruits who land a bunch of early scholarship offers normally are rated higher than a prospect who emerges on one of the national recruiting networks closer to National Signing Day because of the early exposure and attention they receive.
Barring an explosion of high-major offers, that "late" recruit is generally tabbed a sleeper or under-the-radar recruit. However, even though a late pickup might not be known by the recruiting gurus or various fanbases, college coaches have likely thoroughly evaluated them.
"If we take someobody late, most of the time we've known about the kid in some shape or form," said Petercuskie. "The area coach has especially known about him, but the kid may not have been around all of us.
"Some instances we've had kids in camp but didn't offer them at that time... maybe they get better, film looks better as a senior, position needs may dictate whether we can offer right away or not, a lot of factors go into it.
"I do believe, without question, the longer you recruit somebody... the earlier you identify them as a player you would like to recruit, the better you know them and the better they know you. The chance of success I think would increase in that scenario, but those are the perfect scenarios, they don't always work that way."
A lot of college coaches are starting to show support for an early signing period due to early commitments being hounded by other programs after they verbal. Coach Petercuskie believes that an early signing period could be extremely beneficial.
I think it's something that is worthy," he stated. "It definitely should be in discussion. You have young guys who, once they've committed, would sign in December if they are ready to do so.
"Kids tend to camp in June and July and recruiting slows down a little during the season. However, by December, right around the junior college signing period, there is an 'X' amount of kids committed and more are committing before the first of the year than ever before."

I read with interest the article "Big Time Ball: Should Rutgers Just Punt" in the June 1, 2003 issue of The Home News. As an alumnus of Rutgers College and current member of the Board of Governors, I am proud of my alma mater and the quality of its faculty, students and programs. As a public AAU research university, Rutgers provides an excellent education for its students, both in and out of the classroom. In addition to taking classes with distinguished faculty members from Pharmacy, Mason Gross School of the Arts, or our very respected arts and sciences departments, they participate in student life activities, including leadership, community service and club and intercollegiate athletics. Their college experience is enriched for the great diversity of options available at Rutgers.
Many faculty members are involved with governance and some have expertise on financial matters. The comments contained in the article, however, seems to indicate that there is an erroneous impression concerning intercollegiate athletics at Rutgers and its budget. I am writing in an attempt to provide some information. For many, athletics is synonymous with football. I expect that much criticism of the Football program results from its lack of success on the field. However, a new young coach with a football pedigree, Greg Schiano, has been entrusted with building the program from scratch and there are some early tangible signs that the program is being built on a firm foundation of athletic accountability and academic integrity. The athletic quality and character of his recruits makes for a bright future.
However, there is still much criticism of the program and it revolves primarily around the implication that Football expenditures have created a 'black hole' of massive deficits in our athletic budget. The repetition of this theme has created a perception that is a distortion of the facts. Lack of success on the field appears to reinforce in some the willingness to misrepresent the facts or accept without question distorted facts.
It is difficult to explain a budget in narrative form, but I will try. For the fiscal year covering July 1, 2001 through June 30, 2002, Rutgers collected revenues of approximately $11 million from ticket sales, conference and NCAA distributions, corporate sponsors, etc. which offset expenditures and reduced the University's responsibility to $18 million. This amount comes from two sources: $13.7 million from the University budget and $4.5 million from student fees. Although it is a worthy goal for the Athletic Department to strive for financial self-sufficiency, it is worth noting that at this moment the University's investment of $13.7 million represents 1% of its $1.3 billion budget.
While researching this topic, I found it interesting to learn how the $13.7 in University funds and $4.5 million in student fees are distributed among the 30 varsity sports. The 'big three' of Football, Men's Basketball and Women's Basketball receive a total of $4.5 million. The 27 'Olympic' sports receive $8.4 million (the entire $4.5 million in student fees and $3.9 million in University funds). The amount allocated to the general administration and support services of the athletic department is $5.3 million. This includes the cost for facilities maintenance, Media Relations, Marketing, Sports Medicine, Academic advising and other associated services provided for the 30 varsity sports!
With respect to Football, it has an allocation of $2.7 million. That is, from a pool of $18 million (University funds and student fees), only 15% goes to the sport that has approximately 13% of the student athletes. So, why is Football frequently the scapegoat for the Athletic Department's financial expenditures? I expect it is a function of the University's past failure to communicate information that might have avoided these false perceptions.
As it relates to our 'Olympic' sports, should we be concerned about the size of our budget and reduce our commitment to Title IX and the $6.1 million allocated to women's sports? Of course not. We should take pride in the accomplishments of our women student athletes and the 650 student athletes in our 'Olympic' sports programs.
Perhaps it is important to share some information about scholarship funding. Forty-seven percent of a total of approximately $4.9 in scholarship support comes from outside sources and are designated for specific sports, leaving approximately $2.6 to be funded by the University. Interestingly, of this $2.6 million, $1.7 million is allocated to 'Olympic' sports while only $740,000 is allocated to Football and the remainder to Men's and Women's Basketball.
I provide this information in an attempt to dispel the erroneous perception that Football is the 'budget buster." Further, I illustrate the University's commitment to 27 'Olympic' sports programs and its student athletes and its superb effort to support Title IX as a source of great pride.
Rutgers is a great state university that aspires to be in the elite group of public universities in the country. I sincerely believe that included among the many development opportunities afforded our students should be the ability to participate in intercollegiate athletics and compete at the highest level.
I would like to see the faculty, administration and student body support our student athletes and athletic teams, who represent our University and our state, with genuine enthusiasm and create an atmosphere of success throughout the entire University community. It would be wonderful to see, in addition to the various student-to-student mentoring programs, the development of a faculty mentor program in which several faculty members form a 'team' and provide for a specific athletic team the same academic, career, and personal counseling that faculty provide for other student organizations. A new 'winning spirit' at Rutgers!

The Internet has forever changed how retail businesses operate and how consumers shop. I enjoyed this infograph and wanted to share it with you since the stats are well researched and the impact offline to retail is quite astounding. Looking forward to new advertising tools that will allow retailers to track inshore visits from an ad click as discussed in the Spring edition of Digital Dollars and Sense. Full credits to the infograph's publisher and creators here .
Believe it or not, any reason we engage with content boils down to one simple motivation: filling a need.
All companies jump into the world of digital marketing with strong expectations to get the most out of their advertising and marketing activities. The "jumping" step is important as it signals intent. And supporting this intent through a digital strategy is the next necessary step in the process of maximizing the effectiveness for digital marketing programs and actions.
Right Hand Side Paid Text Ads are gone and with it much speculation on the impact of Google's new policy to advertisers, business, industry related companies and users of Google's search engine.
What's the Google Change? There will now be four paid search ads at the top of a search return page now that Paid Search Text ads have been removed from the right hand side of search return pages (SERPs). With the addition of a fourth paid search ad at the top of the page, this pushes organic search return listings further down the page and in some cases, organic search return listings will only be "below the fold." The Bottom paid search ads remain unchanged. Google Knowledge Graph, Rich Answers and Shopping Feeds also remain on search pages, in the same location.
What's the Impact to Google Paid Advertising Campaigns?

Location description from manager
The Brighton and Hove region
Brighton & Hove, Britain's favourite seaside city. Nestling between the South Downs and English Channel on the sunny south coast.
80 miles of coastline means super beaches for the family; here are lovely gardens, history and heritage; castles, abbeys, priories, stately homes and historic houses. There are family amusement parks and wildlife centres; the nostalgic, the curious and the simply fun, including museums of bygones, steam railways and caves.
Sussex boasts numerous theatres and arts festivals, golf courses, horse racing, many ancient churches and buildings plus large Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty over the South Downs and Ashdown Forest, (including the soon-to-be-designated South Downs National Park) - and don't forget the Sussex Pub!
Info provided by tourist board
Brighton is a rich mix of regency heritage, specialist shopping, lively arts, beach front fun and year round events, not forgetting the exotic Royal Pavilion.
England's loveliest and liveliest city by the sea. Brighton and Hove is fun, cosmopolitan and uniquely eccentric all year round. Regency architecture, pleasure pier, specialist shops, pavement cafés, lively arts scene and vibrant nightlife everything's in walking distance, so take time to explore and enjoy.And with a backdrop of the Sussex Downs and traditional English countryside, Brighton and Hove is a great base for exploring the region. Brighton and Hove is the most enchanting, exciting, extraordinary seaside city in Britain. However brazen that may sound, it is no exaggeration. With its cosmopolitan air, oodles of restaurants, feverish nightlife and abundance of culture, the place defies comparison with anywhere else this side of the English Channel.
For centuries it has been regarded as a 'pleasure dome', and that's not about to change. If you love life, welcome to Brighton and Hove.

"Nice cute house, excellent location"
Sweet little house in the Hove Actually, clean and very well equipped. We immediately felt at home, the kids loved the built in bunk beds. Some lovely pubs nearby. Couldn't fault the house, and would recommend it as an ideal place to stay. Stairs a little dangerous for very young children.
"Short Break in Brighton"
I visited Brighton over the weekend with a group of friends, and there was 7 of us. It was my first time in Brighton and the trip was very enjoyable indeed. The main positive of the house for me is it's location it's very near everything, and you can get around by walking and it's only a 5-10 minute drive from the train station. The house itself is nice and cosy, only one bathroom so can be busy but we managed it. The only down side is that the sofa bed isn't the best and appears quite old, so we instead used the floor by laying a quilt. Finally the house is very secure and in a nice area. Overall the short break in Brighton was an enjoyable and memorable one, would definitely stay here again!
Owner's reply: We are delighted you enjoyed your time in Brighton, the owner is at the property this week checking the sofa bed following your comments. Many thanks for taking the time to leave your review.
"Great location"
Stayed with my wife and 15 year old son, great property, situated next to the Old Market and well looked after and beautifully planted courtyard/garden leading to the Waterloo Arch, Lovely quirky bars and cafes within five minutes stroll north, Hove Gardens and seafront five minutes stroll south. Absolutely loved our weeks stay, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, only gripe being Brighton is not very car friendly for obvious traffic reasons, we parked outside the controlled zones and didn't need the car all week. Would recommend and will definitely be back.
Owner's reply: We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Vintage Cottage and on behalf of Crown Gardens Ltd and the landlord, thank you for taking the time to leave your comments.
"Christmas Break"
A lovely little property, beautifully decorated and maintained. We stayed there for a few days over Christmas and had a wonderful time. Our only criticism is that when we arrived the heating was off (and clearly had been off for a period of time) so the house was COLD! It did warm up, eventually, but it would have been just that little bit more welcoming to have stepped out of the cold, pouring rain into a warm, snuggly house. Other than that, it's a delightful house and we would certainly consider staying there again.

I'm headed to NM in Sept for an elk archery hunt, I've read thru the Big Game regs and cant seem to find anything that states whether or not its legal to carry a sidearm while archery hunting in New Mexico.
And I guess more importantly if you even feel it's neccessary to carry one?
I'm not schooled in hunting the mountains in NM but have been reading about the encounters elk hunters can have with lions,bears and even theives at camp where they either had a sidearm or wished they did.
I am going to contact the G&F Mon or Tues to get a definitive answer but thought I would ask here to see if most even felt it was neccessary.

Rizvi: India to sell old-fashioned weapons to Bangladesh through defence pact
Priyo News
March 18, 2017 - 4:12pm
Bangladesh's defence would be an extension of Indian defence system if the agreement is inked as it would create a sort of obedience, said Rizvi
BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has said that India wants to sell archaic weapons to Bangladesh through the proposed 25-year defence pact.
Referring to a statement by one of India's former military chiefs, Rizvi said that most of the weapons India would provide were old-fashioned and far from the standards of modern weaponry equipped with the latest technology.
He made the claim during a press conference held at BNPs Nayapaltan headquarters on Friday afternoon.
The BNP leader said: "It is matter of great confusion what type ordnance would India, a military hardware importing country, export to Bangladesh."
"Bangladesh's defence would be an extension of the Indian defence system if the agreement is inked, as it would create a sort of obedience," Rizvi added.
"India has proposed a $500 million in line of credit to Bangladesh to purchase their military equipment, which means Bangladesh will have an obligation to spend a huge amount to purchase their military hardware."
Bangladeshi people have started realising that India has hidden motives behind the deal, Rizvi added.
Media reports suggest that India and Bangladesh are going to sign a defence cooperation agreement, including the purchase of military equipment from India, during Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's visit to New Delhi in April.
The senior BNP leader also called upon the government to make around 50 other "secretly" signed treaties with India public.
