CCM RBZ 75 Flex Composite Hockey Stick
CCM RBZ 75 Flex Composite Hockey Stick
The first expression of this partnership is the new CCM RBZ powered by TaylorMade. Featuring the revolutionary SpeedBlade Technology™ providing insane velocity, the face of hockey sticks has changed forever. The new CCM RBZ features key innovations that will truly classify this stick in a category of its own. Better weight distribution produces a faster swing for a faster puck speed while the constant stiffness profile all the way through the shaft allows for a customized kick point for maximum shot loading. Finally, the revolutionary SpeedBlade TechnologyTM provides a hot blade face which helps rockets the puck off the blade.
Fine tuned weight & flex distribution provide a faster swing for more puck speed.
All new constant stiffness shaft profile provides a precise & customized kick-point for optimal loading.
Revolutionary construction with 4 speed channels helps provide a hot face for insane velocity.
Using some of the same principles that power the TaylorMade Rocketballz, the CCM RBZ features a revolutionary new design that completely eliminates foam from inside the blade. Foam absorbs some of the energy from the puck reducing its velocity. With the patent pending SpeedBlade Technology the foam is replaced by four speed channels engineered to increase the coefficient of restitution providing insane velocity without sacrificing any control or durability.
The C.O.R is also known as the trampoline effect which is the measurement used to determine the amount of energy return at the point of impact. This is a new concept to hockey but one that has been used in golf for several years now in order to assess how to maximize the performance of a driver to increase ball speed. The exclusive Speed Channels inside the CCM RBZ SpeedBladeTM are specifically engineered to help enhance the C.O.R to minimize energy loss for a rocket of a shot.

Golden brown is a nice color — for toast, for flavored coffees, and for pancakes.
Not so much for your birthday suit.
We're told time and time again of the dangers of baking in the sun, or getting the 'fake bake' from tanning beds and booths, yet many of us still seek the light … the light that will darken our skin and make that new white shirt just pop.
Skin that is 'tan' is so because it is damaged.
Indoor tanning has been linked with skin cancers including melanoma (the deadliest type of skin cancer), squamous cell carcinoma, and cancers of the eye (ocular melanoma), according to the Centers for Disease Control.
Indoor tanning exposes users to both UV-A and UV-B rays, which damage the skin and can lead to cancer, says the CDC. Using a tanning bed is particularly dangerous for younger users; people who begin tanning younger than age 35 have a 75 percent higher risk of melanoma. Using tanning beds also increases the risk of wrinkles and eye damage, and changes skin texture.
A tan is a response to injury: skin cells respond to damage from UV rays by producing more pigment, say health care professionals.
Keep that in mind as you weigh the benefits of a new proposed state law that would prohibit minors from tanning businesses.
It's not about personal rights — it's about health, plain and simple.
A dermatologist told state lawmakers this week that North Carolina youths should be barred from getting bronzed at the local tanning salon because their risks for cancer are too great. Dr. Kelly Nelson spoke in support of the bill that would prohibit tanning parlor customers younger than 18.
The House health committee considered the bill backed by several medical and cancer-prevention groups. Current law prohibits anyone 13 or younger from using salon equipment unless a doctor gives the child a written prescription, while children 14 to 17 only must have a parent's permission.
Dr. Nelson, an assistant dermatology professor at Duke University medical school, said the rate of melanoma among women under age 50 is growing during an era in which the number of available tanning beds is increasing. Young people, particularly girls who want the summertime look year round, are being needlessly exposed to higher doses of ultraviolet radiation that can accumulate and break down skin cells over time, Nelson told State House members.
"Melanoma can be deadly, particularly if it's not diagnosed early," Nelson said after showing images of melanoma or the less dangerous basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma of her patients. "Young people really need protection and that's what this bill is about."
More than 61,000 people were diagnosed with skin melanomas and about 9,200 died from them in 2009, the most recent year that figures were available from the CDC.
A committee vote was delayed at least until next week after a spokesman for a tanning salon industry-funded institute argued that bill supporters were misinforming lawmakers about the beds.
The bill is supported by the North Carolina Medical Society, American Cancer Society, N.C. Pediatric Society and the state's Child Fatality Task Force, among others.
The bill makes sense to us and deserves passage.

The best power metal band ever, they wipe their ass with nu metal, emo, "gangsta rap" and all other forms of music for pussies. Grow some testicles. I went to the Blind Guardian concert, and kicked the whiny rich-bitch goth cunt in the face till she bled all over daddy's BMW.

Blind Guardian rank with Helloween and Stratovarius as the main innovators of the Germanic speed/power metal style that has been massively popular in Europe for the past several years. Blind Guardian themselves did derive from Helloween early in their career, but took that style to a new level, with advanced musicianship and folk/fantasy-based lyrical themes predominating much of their work. Hansi Kürsch bass/vocals
Marcus Siepen guitars Andre Olbrich guitars Thomas Stauch drums |
3. | Blind Guardian | ||
the band that pwns you.
"I was just listening to -insert generic rock band-"
"Dude...ever hear of BG?" "WTF NO. WHO ARE DOS GUYZ?" |
4. | blind guardian | ||
amazingly good power metal band. sound like a mix between medieval music and iron maiden. are influenced by the J.R.R. Tolkien. the soulforged is god.
5. | blind guardian | ||
true power metal that kicks your ass blind guardian rocked my face off
6. | blind guardian | ||
one of the best metal bands that has ever walked the face of this earth! SHIT! Blind Guardian fucking kicks ass!!!
7. | Blind Guardian | ||
What can I say? A great Power Metal band liked by great people.
I would argue than Nightfall in Middle Earth is their best album, but again, they all rock. With amazing voal talent by Hansi Kursch, Andre Olbirch on guitars, Marcus Siepen on bass, and Thomas "Thomen" Stauch on percussion, they just kick ass. They originate from Krefeld, Germany. Curse of Feanor and Bright eyes! WOO! Alec: Dude, did you see Blind Guardian at Bloodfest?

I ran the 50 miler and this was my first competitive race, it was amazing. I have run some good distances before but this was my first time competing so i had the jitters for sure. Everyone at the race made me feel right at home and the runners were a amazing group of people who were there to have a good time as well as run. The course itself was def tough with bethel hill being a good 1.5-2 mile climb and the heat and humidity could test anyone. Doug the race director was a super chill dude and you could tell he wanted everyone to have a great race and feel welcome. The aid crews were just as cool and def had some character to them which was nice as they gave you a sense of security even though your running through the backwoods of NC. I was lucky enough to have the support of some great friends and it def helped me when a storm hit as i dread running in the rain and when i saw my buddie going up the hill as i was going down i kicked myself in gear and pressed as hard as i was able. I will def be returning for this race next year and congrats to the Winners and finishers as it was one heck of a run. I was super happy with my 4th overall finish. I really felt lucky to run with some amazing people, also congrats to to Tomasz and Anthony the winners this year!! You guys are Fast!!
I ran the 50-mile race... and won it (as the first female finisher) on my first ultra of the year! I chose this race because it was on pavement (hard to find these days with the ultra), it was hot (to my advantage), and it was hilly (for the challenge)! The course was also beautiful, and never boring! My favorite part was the last 2 miles of each loop: basically all uphill! OUCH!! The aid station volunteers and spectators were the best, and are why I was able to keep going at a nice, smooth pace even in the latter parts of the race! I'm thankful to everyone for cheering me on, even when I was obviously delirious and didn't look so great! I'm thankful for the ice-cold water and soda afterward, and for the endless portions of food that I was finally able to consume after sitting around for four hours, chatting it up! I recommend this race for the challenge, because when you run a good time on this course, you know you're ready to P.R. on most any other course!!
This was my first DNF in over 50 marathons and beyond. Mostly heat issues. That said, the organization, athletes, and yes, the course's toughness, were all as previously reported - world-class. Other than my own failings, I couldn't have been more impressed by and thankful for Doug Dawkins and the rest of the MTC folks who spend so much effort and time each year to put on the wonderful event. Kudos!
This race was chosen because it was a (rare) Saturday night event that you can drive to from DC, and I needed to cross NC off the 50 states list. Despite the remoteness of Ellerbe, it's easy to get to because the highway runs right by it. This is a TOUGH marathon. Think of it as a mini road ultra. Here's the proof: Temps were 90 degrees at the start. (To compare, I ran an 8K under similar conditions 2 weeks later. The organizers were very close to calling black flag conditions. That meant they would shut off the clocks and the race would turn into a fun run. And to think that they run in these conditions every year!) Only 7 aid stations instead of the usual 12. It's mostly hills, so you can never really get going. No spectators, save for family and friends near the start/finish. The course is surrounded by trees and all of 6 houses, which you pass over and over again since it's a loop course. So, why do I recommend this race? It's because this race has soul. Everyone says a prayer at the start. You pass and are passed by just about everybody in sunshine and the middle of darkness. It's BYO light and water (both of which you will have to carry). The tech shirt design is the best Ive seen, and your locally-made finisher's mug wrapped in town newspaper will mean more than 100 generic finisher's medals. And you will always remember Doug's face. All of this adds up to a shared, hard-earned experience that you will never forget. One day, I will be back.
I loved the marathon course - nice tough hills, good challenge. The atmosphere and organization were extraordinary, as well as the contact with other runners. Actually, I felt more mutual support than competition (like you would find in a relay), since we all seemed to share the same pain (although some 50-miler runners seemed tireless). I personally congratulate Doug, Mark, Tom and the Team for their attention to detail and professionalism. I never felt alone or lost, and there were plenty of refreshments and food (not to mention the feast at the finish line). The only question for me is - how can you ever run the 50-miler course?! Even with a little help from the rain and support from other participants, this race is tough and hot. A couple of recommendations: Train appropriately for hills, and also carry a water bottle and a light past 9 p.m. You pass your car 4 times, so use the opportunity to replenish special supplies.
"Super cool" is not a reference to the temperatures... - it was 89 degrees at the start, but the temps dropped all evening, aided by a frog-choker thunderstorm at 11 p.m. (That's right - the race starts at 6 p.m. and the marathon and the 50-miler are run concurrently.) If you like hard races, this is a great one for you! Forget about Boston qualifying (don't think it's certified anyway!). You are either running uphill or down... there's not more than a mile of flat running per 10-mile loop! Hills aren't super steep but relentless and long. But the story here is the event itself. Doug Dawkins really knows how to put on a great event (unbelievable aid stations that even had cheeseburgers!)... and the volunteers are without a doubt the best!! Seriously, most race reviews praise the volunteers deservedly, but these were special. Also, the greatest shirt ever!! Plus, a neat finisher's award - ceramic coffee mugs. If you need crowds and pampering, pass on this race! But if you like a really unique and interesting challenge, this is the race for you!
This was first time I had ever run a marathon at night or seen a 50-mile race. The organization was terrific - a large variety of food to choose from about every 5 miles. The course is almost all mild, with one very long hill - a challenge for this flat-lander who dies in any heat. But I had an absolute blast and they had the best volunteers ever!
The race director said at the start that you would be proud to wear the shirt after you run this race. He did not lie, considering the heat and the hills. However, if you like a good challenge and well-run, smaller, community races, then this one if for you. At the start, I dreaded a multiple loop course, but the start of the course in the light and finishing in the dark made it seem like two different courses. Started at a church and the parishioners were on hand cooking hamburgers, hot dogs, and veggie stuff. The one aid station was well-manned. You will need to carry water and have a headlamp. It was really, really dark when the sun went down.
This is a well organized marathon. You will not get lost like most Ultra's. Your vehicle will be park at the water point which you pass four times you can use it for a re-supply. This will be your toughest marathon you will probaly ever do but you will never stop talking about the Boogie.
a small marathon but a great course... you can park your car along the course by the aid station there so you can have your own personal aid station. i loved it... this was my 2nd marathon ever, and i ran it 9 minutes slower than i ran disney marathon in january but that's b/c of the heat and the hills i guess

This topic will serve as a free for all bragging forum for when folks do stuff to help in General Siglerisimo's quest for world domination. Pretty much anything can qualify. It could be posting a blog entry about an upcoming book release, 'forgetting' a ripped CD/DVD of the podcasts in an airport, changing your Twitter icon, or converting your friends and family.
You certainly don't need to pull a TwoWire and make up ANCESTOR tee shirts to promote the book release. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, TwoWire put together some tee shirt designs to help promote ANCESTOR in our local markets. These are sold at cost to promote book sales. Neither Scott nor TwoWire is making a dime off of them. So if you're low on cash, buy the book, not a tee shirt! Here's the links if you want to check them out:
http://www.cafepress.com/SCFIANCESPLAIN No txt on the fronts and wording on the back
http://www.cafepress.com/SCFIANCENSORED The Sci-Fi Placard with the "f##K" on the front and wording from the new ANCESTOR preorder announcement on the back
http://www.cafepress.com/No_Censoring The Sci-Fi Placard with "fuck" on the front and a different wording on the back
http://www.cafepress.com/NewANCESTOR The new ANCESTOR cover art with the ANCESTOR preorder announcement
Yes, Junkies, ANCESTOR promo tees are now available in black (and other dark colors) thanks to the Gutter Mistress being monochrome. TwoWire busted his ass and I piped up with an occasional piece of advice when he needed it. Please remember that Scott, A, and I do not want you buying any of these promo tees until after you've alloted sufficient funds to purchase a copy of ANCESTOR for everyone in your family and all of your friends. The goal here is to sell books, not shirts. If you've got some extra $$$ after you buy books to buy a shirt and help sell more books, great. Otherwise, please use your cash to buy copies of ANCESTOR itself.
That being said, here's what brother TwoWire created over at Zazzle. Yes, they're obscenely priced. That's why we didn't do black/dark tees initially:

Which Winegard to replace king dome?
5 posts
• Page 1 of 1
Which Winegard to replace king dome?We have a King Dome roof mounted. We are wanting to replace it with a Winegard. Which one would anyone recommend? We are using DISH on the road service with the 211k receiver.
Re: Which Winegard to replace king dome?If you do not need/want in-motion capability you will have the very best experience with the Winegard Trav'ler. This is the only antenna that will work just like a home antenna and "see" all 3 Dish Net satellites at the same time (110, 119, 129). If you absolutely must be able to watch TV while driving then I would suggest the Mission antenna. It will switch between the 3 satellites but can only "see" one satellite at a time. If you plan to use a DVR, another dual tuner or more than one receiver I would not suggest any kind of a domed antenna from any manufacturer.
Re: Which Winegard to replace king dome?We don't need the in motion. I had done the research and also thought the travler was the way to go, however the closest place to us does not install that one. They only do the mini. I will google and see what might be on our way in some of our travels. We are not planning on using a DVR. Thanks for your input.
Re: Which Winegard to replace king dome?Don't take a lesser antenna just because the local guy ain't so bright.
Where will your travels be taking you. I know a number of other dealers and I may be able to point you in the right direction. Heck, maybe our paths will cross and I can install it myself!
Re: Which Winegard to replace king dome?Right now, the King dome is working fine. This is our first experience with satellite. We know it is outdated and can only see one satellite at a time. So, when we decide to upgrade that is the one we will probably go with.
Thanks for your info.

WHITEHALL, N.Y. -- A Whitehall man has been arrested after a two-year-old was found wandering alone at a playground.
Police said Timothy Crawford Sr., 29, was caring for the child at the time. They believe the child was able to get out of the house and cross a street to get to the playground and was found wearing only a diaper.
Crawford has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child. He was issued a ticket and will reappear in court at a later date.

A look at the PyPy 2.0 release
heh, I think people would argue that the sysV init solved 99% of the problem with even simpler tools.
I think that the simple case is handled well by SysV init, the really complex cases are not handled well by anything short of application specific watchdogs/monitoring/cleanup tools, so the question is if there is enough of a gap between these two to make the cgroups requirement (and overhead) worthwhile.
I've gotten to the point that everything I build is now either a cluster, or at least potentially part of a cluster, so I look at anything with the question in mind of 'how would I do this if it was part of a cluster', and this mindset really makes me question the value of trying to have the init system be more clever in addressing this problem.
One of the most common problems you run into when dealing with clusters isn't "the application exited or crashed", it's "The application is running, but wedged" I just don't see many cases where the cgroups approach to managing the app would have prevented problems (although, I freely admit that it has the 'cool' factor)

Yes, clusters need more development effort and more powerful tools, but don't let that get in the way of the 80% solution.

That might seem illogical at first, until you consider how a developer's environment is setup. When developing a daemon you absolutely _hate_ centralized process management, because it tends to get in the way of debugging, among other things. Instead, you basically have to implement some sort of simple process management yourself, regardless of how your production environment will look. (If you're a web developer for a large website, imagine having to develop, debug, test using your process to upload and install in production... it'd be a nightmare.)
I usually start my development on OS X, and then port to Linux and the BSDs. Not once have I considered using launchd.

inittab worked as intended couple of decades ago. But when daemons started spawning processes left-and-right and started depend on other processes it become useless.
You can view systemd group-using core as "inittab done right".

why does device enumeration belong as part of init (udev)?
why does logging belong as part of init (the journal)?
Posted Nov 15, 2012 22:44 UTC (Thu) by raven667 (subscriber, #5198) [Link]
It isn't part of PID 1 but hardware initialization is a dependency for services being started. The service manager ends up needing to know about hardware state for dependency purposes and therefore shares a lot of infrastructure with udev which is why they are distributed together now.
> why does logging belong as part of init (the journal)?
This is also not part of PID 1 . Whether system logging should be tackled as part of the systemd project is debatable. It is still an optional component though and might solve some real problems.

Funny that you are trying to use cluster-aware approach to oppose cgroups. You do remember that cgroups were invented by Google engineers to manage clusters, right? SystemD just applies the same logic to local system management.
That's strange because I see tons of places where cgroups solve cluster-management problems. What happens with your cluster if some unimportant task start to eat memory or CPU endlessly? With cgroups answer is obvious: it's bound by cgroup's limit. What happens if some task must be killed and restarted because your node is overloaded? Cgroups make sure you can kill the task reliably. Sure, that means that your tasks must be written to be killable, but it makes sense for clusters anyway since failed PSU can do the same thing suddenly and without warning.

I just said that requiring cgroups to properly start and stop a process is using the wrong tool for the job.

In 15+ years of using linux I never came across a sysv init based system that could reliably restart mysql under all typical production circumstances. Now mysql used (?) to be a close to worst case behaving deamon, but it was also very popular, so if no distributor could handle it correctly with the tools given (and the init scripts tended to be very, very long and complex and hard to debug), how can one argue that it's a 99% solution?

IME just because a process is running doesn't mean it's actually in a good state. You need some kind of heartbeat protocol. Does systemd implement something like that?
Posted Nov 22, 2012 22:45 UTC (Thu) by Cyberax (✭ supporter ✭, #52523) [Link]
SystemD nicely solves this problem. Hooking it up with an external heartbeat monitor should also be quite easy.

Oh lordy I got my least documented pick. It's not even turn 1 and I'm already winging it! Pretender'll be in some time tomorrow.
I think myself, Pan and Arco are the players who have no actual MP experience? This is going to get interesting.
(NB: My dropbox account seems to be registered to a different e-mail, but it added me anyway and should be obvious which one is me ;))
Mumble :: Thread :: Click to Join
I think so, though I will have to saw that my MP experience is summed up with "8 odd turns into my first ever game" so im not exactly a pro :-P
I added a folder called 'pretenders' to the dropbox folder, my pretender is already in :)
"What can change the nature of man?"
Visit my development blog: http://www.indigonflash.com
I'll try to get my pretender made tonight. Also, in addition to my lack of mp experience, I have a lack of sp experience, toos.... There's going to be some excellent noob mistakes from me I fear :)
Benevolent dictator of the RPS Blood Bowl Divisions of Death - Join us!
My experience consists of 35 turns from the other RPS game, and that's it. So I wouldn't be too worried.
Yep first game at all here though I've been reading up and running some tests.I'm regretting having pan in the shortlist though having run the tests, would people be okay with my changing to my first choice nation? (it isn't in play).If there's disagreement I'll still have a crack with pan of course.
I've got no problem with you bumping down to what ever your 2nd or 3rd choice was Jarvis, bit harsh locking you into a nation that you dont get on with will just make it painful ;-) Plus I'm not a fan of the stealthy buggers! If anyone else has a objection let us know other wise let us know what your choices were
Pan was second choice, r'leyh which I hope to move to was first choice.That first choice either clashed with someone else and we both got bumped down instead of one keeping it in which case I'd need their permission for it to be fair that I take r'leyh, or else it looks like we may all have had a random pick from our submited 3 and I should simply have done more testing of my choices.
My choices were Vanheim, T'ien Ch'i, Pythium. I think learning how to deal with the unexpected is part of the game, though.
Mumble :: Thread :: Click to Join
Testing choices? What is this you talk of? Sounds like cheating to me!
In the interest of full disclosure, I've never played with any of my 3 choices in either SP or MP, half the fun is far as I'm concerned is digging into a new nation, flailing about madly and hoping your stating scales will work out ok. :-)
If we can get some kind of concensus about whether people are either happy for Jarvis to:
A) Change to his 1st choice,
B) Change to his 3rd choice if not already taken
C) Lump it out as Pan
Really not keen on trying to force a nation on him he hasn't thought through and was clearly a error so I'll be judging everyone who votes on C :-P
Mathematically, I think 4 of us will have not had our first choice. That said, if Jotunheim was someone's second or third choice I'd be absolutely terrified to find out what their first choice was.

Oh, and as far as changing nation, I *think* that Jarvis should just lump it, but I *vote* that he can do whatever he likes, as it's meant to be fun after all.
I guess I favour Sargis' "work things out as you go along" strategy :) And in the end of the day, the outcome of the game will likely be down to diplomacy as much as which nation you pick.
Jotunheim infantry are mostly giants. Giants are very powerful, if expensive. They'll have an excellent early game thanks to the strong armies, lose a bit of steam mid game (where the price of each Giant means that they can fall behind a little on research and multi-province fronts) and given the early conquests, a reasonably strong end game.
For the record, I don't mind Jarvis changing it's just that I'm in a similar situation with regards to T'ien Ch'i / Vanheim as he is with Pan / Rl'yeh, and I suspect there'll be at least one other player like that too?
Pan are actually reasonably tough with their Centaurs, Panii, etc, and have really stong nature magic which can lead to some good summons. For myself, T'ien have reasonable (if a little weak) magic diversity and can be quite powerful defensively.

Well Jarvis the majority view appears to be that you should man up and ride out the randomness but no one is gonna complain if its a deal breaker for you and you really must change!
I'd be remiss if I didn't bring your attention to this thread over on the Dominion 3 forum which gives some basic strats for the different nations. While I like to experiment a bit, having absolutely no clear as to your nation can lead to some game breaking bad decision while designing your pretender. (I'm referring to absolutely screwing your self by picking the wrong kind of order/slough scales for your troop types)
Funnily enough the game I'm playing atm I got randomed T'ien as well and frankly their pretty gnarly, spreading free PD, decent enough infantry, great calvalry and more mage types then you can shake a stick at. Very good :-)

NorCal is startin to get all messed up kinda like the sad fate of socal, but probably not as bad.

Apple Gets a Break From PunishmentWe are all too familiar with the endless patent disputes between Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) and Samsung Corp. However, a July 9 decision by a British court that Samsung's Galaxy tablets don't infringe on Apple's registered designs has gone a little too far in treating the giant manufacturer as if it were a naughty kid. Judge Colin Birss ordered Apple to publish a notice for six consecutive months on its UK Website and in major UK newspapers saying that Samsung didn't copy designs for the iPad. So far, I have seen no "I'm sorry, Samsung" on the Apple site. And I hope I will never see such an embarrassing statement from Apple -- or any other manufacturer, for that matter. It's simply too ridiculous. The court decided last week to delay Apple's punishment, at least for a couple of months until the ruling is appealed. As many of us had expected, Apple's attorney, Richard Hacon, appealed the decision. The appeal will be heard in October. This buys Apple some time that it might use to reach an agreement with the South Korean manufacturer. No company on this planet likes to advertise its competitors on its Website. However, from a marketing point of view, the ruling that Samsung's tablets are unlikely to be confused with the iPad because they are not as cool is a big affirmation of the uniqueness of Apple's products. In the eyes of Judge Birss, there is no reason for Apple's claim that Samsung is a copycat. One question that pops into my mind is what would happen if Apple decided to stop being one of Samsung's biggest customers. Billions of dollars go from Apple to Samsung. In an ideal world, it would make sense for both CEOs to sit down like adults and come to a mutually satisfying agreement. The companies have practically lost control of whose technology is whose anyway. What could happen if the appeal were denied? I don't see Apple advertising for Samsung in any possible way. Stopping Apple's products from shipping to the UK while this issue gets settled? That sounds like a more reasonable way for Apple to keep its integrity as an enterprise that shouldn't be punished like a kid. Was this ruling the best a judge could do, or was this a way of telling the world that the patent litigation is out of control and needs to be stopped? After all, both Apple and Samsung have been embarrassed this time by the same judge in the same court. They should join forces and spend their time and money finding better solutions to their multibillion-dollar patent problems. Meanwhile, in the US, Apple and Samsung are continuing their $2.5 billion patent dispute in a federal court in San Jose. That is, until it's time to go back to the British court. |

Ulster County deputies find pot, $12,000 in cash after stopping Poughkeepsie man in New Paltz
NEW PALTZ, N.Y. -- A 44-year-old Poughkeepsie man faces a drug charge following a traffic stop on state Route 32 by Ulster County Sheriff's deputies, who said they found more than two pounds of marijuana and about $12,000 in his car.
Andrew F. Bruno of 3 Ansara Road, Poughkeepsie, was arrested at 1 p.m. Sunday and charged with criminal possession of marijuana, a felony.
Deputies said their investigation and a search of the car, with the help of the town of Poughkeepsie police K-9 unit, turned up more than two pounds of marijuana and the cash.
Bruno was sent to the Ulster County Jail pending arraignment.
The car he was driving, a 2004 BMW 5451, was seized pending forfeiture, deputies said.

Rango [Blu-Ray]
Director : Gore Verbinski
Screenplay : John Logan (story by John Logan and Gore Verbinski and James Ward Byrkit)
MPAA Rating : PG
Year of Release : 2011
Stars : Johnny Depp (Rango / Lars), Isla Fisher (Beans), Abigail Breslin (Priscilla), Ned Beatty (Mayor), Alfred Molina (Roadkill), Bill Nighy (Rattlesnake Jake), Stephen Root (Doc / Merrimack / Mr. Snuggles), Harry Dean Stanton (Balthazar), Timothy Olyphant (Spirit of the West), Ray Winstone (Bad Bill), Ian Abercrombie (Ambrose), Gil Birmingham (Wounded Bird), James Ward Byrkit (Waffles / GordyPapa / Joad / Cousin Murt / Curlie Knife Attacker / Rodent Kid), Claudia Black (Angelique), Blake Clark (Buford), John Cothran Jr. (Elgin)
A kind of crazed, loving homage to spaghetti westerns, Gore Verbinski's computer-animated comic adventure Rango lacks the narrative and emotional refinement of Pixar's best films, but what it loses in coherence and dexterity it gains in pure sensationalism, whether it be visual, verbal, or narrative. The screenplay by John Logan (Gladiator, The Aviator), from a story he concocted with Verbinski and James Ward Byrkit (who worked as a storyboard artist on Verbinski's Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy) is the prototypical postmodern mishmash of cinematic tropes, which means the film will be best appreciated by movie buffs who can spot all the sources and in-jokes and see how all the recycled pieces are carefully woven together into a completely unique fabric. Viewers who don't know the difference between Sergio Corbucci and Sergio Leone will still find much to enjoy in the film's antic, sometimes exhausting exuberance, although some of the movie's more distinct pleasures will fly over their heads or under their radars.
The film begins with a well-constructed nod to its own artifice by introducing our lizard hero, Rango (Johnny Depp), enacting his own dramatic world with a wind-up fish toy and a Barbie torso inside a glass aquarium from which the camera never strays until it flies out the back of his owner's SUV and smashes on the hot pavement of what we can only surmise is the Arizona desert. This opening sequence, which self-consciously contrasts fantasy and reality, establishes the film's anything-goes pretense, a tendency that is confirmed only moments later when Rango comes across a semi-squashed armadillo (Alfred Molina) who speaks like a messianic sage while informing Rango about "the Spirit of the West" and giving him a cryptic mission that begins in the ramshackle, dried-up town of Dirt, which serves the mythic role of intermediary between civilization and wilderness. Rango puts his dramatic chops to use as he playacts the role of the western hero, convincing the town's rough-hewn denizens (which include all manner of desert dwellers, from horny toads to possums to nondescript rodents of every shape and size) that he is a dangerous gunslinger. Naturally, they elevate him to the role of sheriff, a move that is politically motivated by the town's corrupt mayor (Ned Beatty) as a distraction from his nefarious backroom dealings.
The plot itself, which revolves around the theft of the town's precious water supply, is lifted straight from Roman Polanski's despondent neo-noir Chinatown (1974), whose influence also extends to Beatty's Mayor, a visual and aural dead-ringer for John Huston's villainous Noah Cross. That is just one of the film's many, many cinematic allusions, some of which are breathtakingly obvious (such as a wonderfully absurd action sequence involving an army of giant bats that riffs on the "Flight of the Valkyries" aerial assault in Apocalypse Now) to the extremely subtle (Rango literally takes his name from a label that says "Hecho en Durango," but savvy spaghetti western fans will note its similarity to the name of Franco Nero's mythic antihero Django). Some of the film's best moments are the ones in which a strange, surrealist impulse takes over, albeit sometimes within the confines of physical reality (when Rango suddenly sheds layers of skin in the desert heat, the image is alien even as it conforms to biological reality).
Despite the visual and tonal influence of the spaghetti western, those Italian-Spanish co-productions of the 1960s and '70s that turned the American western on its head by infusing its mythic narrative framework with various shades of nihilism, Verbinski and company are clearly in the redemption business, giving us a nobody playing the role of hero who essentially becomes a hero via his complete commitment to the role (shades of Don Quixote, perhaps?). The literal arrival of the fabled Man With No Name (voiced, alas, by Timothy Olyphant doing his best Clint Eastwood impression, rather than Eastwood himself) is actually a bit of a red herring, since he is probably the least interesting incarnation of the spaghetti western aesthetic. Rather, it is Rango's ability to take the genre's darker impulses and find ways to make light of them that keeps the film from sinking into a one-note homage.
Johnny Depp, who is reuniting with his Pirates of the Caribbean director for the first time since At World's End (2006), is given free reign in his performance, and he runs with Logan's stylized dialogue, racing through the dense, alliterative prose in a way that makes you laugh out loud, even if you missed half of it (the influence of the Coen Brothers and their love of anachronistic regional dialects and oddball turns of phrase is everywhere, especially as the film arrived in theaters in the shadow of True Grit). Amazingly enough, Depp's mania allows room for the other performers to shine, as well, including Isla Fisher as Beans, the requisite love interest, whose lizard defense mechanism of freezing in place is humorously mistimed, and Bill Nighy as Rattlesnake Jake, an impossibly large serpentine gunslinger whose gravelly cadences match the threat of his machine-gun rattler. As a whole, Rango doesn't quite hold together, but with all it has going on, it's a miracle that it holds together as well as it does, and I can only imagine that repeat viewings will unearth additional layers of its bold mixture of the surreal and the screwball.

One of Rango's great strengths is its unique visual design--both photorealistic in the details and yet undeniably cartoonish, which together creates a particularly cool cinematic look--and the 1080p/AVC-encoded high-definition transfer on this Blu-Ray disc does not disappoint. The image is crisp and sharp with outstanding detail, the kind that makes you feel the heat and dust in the air. Repeat viewings turn up all manner of tiny details you likely missed the first time around, which is part of the movie's pleasure. And, despite the film's high-tech CGI nature, it has a cinematic look with just the slightest veneer of (faked) film grain. The lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround soundtrack is also expertly rendered, with clear dialogue, great separation, and a strong low end that gives the aerial assault sequence a real sense of depth and presence. | |
You have a number of different viewing options for Rango. You can watch either the original theatrical version or a slightly longer (about 4 minutes) version. While watching the theatrical version, you can opt to utilize a picture-in-picture feature that shows you the original storyboards, and while watching the extended edition you can turn on an informative audio commentary by director Gore Verbinski, co-writer James Ward Byrkit, production designer Mark "Crash" McCreery, animation director Hal Hickel, and visual effects supervisor Tim Alexander. Breaking the Rules: Making Animation History is a comprehensive 48-minute making-of documentary broken into two parts: "The Stage is Set" covers the 16-month pre-production, where the filmmaking team ensconced themselves in a Hollywood Hills mansion and developed the story, characters, and environments, while "Now We Ride" covers the actual process of animating the film at Industrial Light & Magic. All the commentary participants appear in the documentary along with a host of other collaborators, including writer John Logan, cinematographer Roger Deakins, composer Hans Zimmer, and stars Johnny Depp and Isla Ficher. "Real Creatures of Dirt" is a 22-minute featurette about the actual desert-dwelling denizens that inspired the characters in the movie, while "A Field Trip to Dirt" is an interactive featurette that allows you to see the completely three-dimensional virtual environment of Dirt created for the film along with the three-dimensional models of all the major characters. There are also 10 deleted scenes, including an alternate ending that would come after the theatrical ending, and the original theatrical trailer. |

This is monster ofa phone, I'm eagerly waiting for the battery life verdict.
23. redsox420 posted on 15 Nov 2012, 07:47 0
HOW do you know? This phone has a weak ass battery @ 2020 mAh.. The Note 2 has a 3100 mAh battery.
The DNA will be DOA within 6 months. Nice specs but no way to upgrade battery. No sim card slot, etc.
What they didn't mention is that you WONT get LTE on ATT if you use it there. You might just get 2g/3g

Hey ,
Even it gets locked with an update can we install a Custom Rom and we are ready to go for any Sim ?
17. Droid_X_Doug posted on 15 Nov 2012, 06:24 2
I doubt you will have to worry about VZW locking the phone at a later date. VZW had to agree to unlock their LTE phones as part of a deal with the FCC for more LTE spectrum. VZW values LTE spectrum more than locked phones.

I am telling you this phone is looking more & more pleasing as I read up on it. To have this phone unlocked is going to be so insane. True WORLD PHONE.
Also I am reading that the phone comes S-OFF meaning that all you need to do is unlock its bootloader & you can install custom ROMs with root.
That means you can remove the resource hungry HTC Sense & add an Android 4.2 AOSP ROM with an incredible Kernel & get 1 to 2 more GBs of memory & better battery life on the phone.
They are also saying the 1080p SLCD 3 screen is incredibly frugal & the battery life so far is actually quite good.
I just want some more reviews ESPECIALLY from "Jooooohn V here from phonearena.com", to bring validity to that claim.
I am getting more & more intrigued by the HTC Droid DNA.
20. Droid_X_Doug posted on 15 Nov 2012, 07:05 2
Your post in the earlier DNA article got me wondering about the DNA as well. If Sense could be dumped and if the phone and camera were state-of-the-art, the DNA could be compelling if the battery life was competitive.
HTC may have a winner with the DNA. I hope they have one. More competition is better for the consumer.
25. SuperAndroidEvo posted on 15 Nov 2012, 08:12 0
That is clearly my mentality, that is why I am willing to give the HTC Droid DNA a fair shake.
Let's hope the battery life is compelling.

But why not the nexus 4? Lol
26. SuperAndroidEvo posted on 15 Nov 2012, 08:14 2
No 4G LTE. To me I could never go back to 3G no matter how kick a$s a phone is. 4G LTE is a life changer. You need to experience it to know what I am talking about.
12. PhenomFaz posted on 15 Nov 2012, 03:16 2
it is a great phone but i have to wait for the review especially on the battery...and for what its worth its an awesome smartphone but not a phablet
15. BillyG posted on 15 Nov 2012, 04:41 0
its HTC for god sake, if you really use it, it will only be about 2 hours. but if it only for show and left idle, it will easily last a day... better go with GNote2 with its 3100 mAh. i cant understand why htc always screw their customers: no sd slot, non remov. battery, and only put small battery inside.
27. ngo2dd posted on 15 Nov 2012, 08:23 1
From your post you have never used an HTC phone. I can easily get 3 hour of screen time with full brightness on my EVO LTE
29. BillyG posted on 15 Nov 2012, 23:33 0
woww, i'm amazed that you're so proud of that 3 hours...
fyi, i did buy a htc one x, after couple of weeks i sold it to a friend and it becomes his problem now, bringing ext. battery everywhere he goes. few months later htc one x+ comes, and i'm laughing so hard at him and others that bought and stay with one x.
2. GUNDAM posted on 15 Nov 2012, 02:45 1
would've been a better phone had it had a battery of at least 2500mah
4. takay0 posted on 15 Nov 2012, 02:53 3
no way man! you think it will be better phone with 2.5 RAM and 2GB S4 pro ?
oh curse it will be a better phon man
lets hope the lcd-3 its power saver and it will be just right
8. GUNDAM posted on 15 Nov 2012, 03:02 0
i never said anything about the other specs being bad.... just very worried about this beast's battery life since it has to power over 2000000 pixels. My gs3 has a 2100mah battery and a lower screen resolution but it has a hard time staying above 15% by the time i go to sleep. i doubt that the droid dna will beat the gs3's battery life no matter how energy efficient the screen is :(
22. Droid_X_Doug posted on 15 Nov 2012, 07:10 1
If the S4 Pro chipset is frugal power-wise, and if the display is also frugal with its power demands, there MAY not be an issue with the DNA's battery life.
Next question is when is PA going to do a review of the DNA?
30. takay0 posted on 17 Nov 2012, 11:39 1
i know man... i was sarcastic... i know what you ment i was just kiddin... i agree with you that it would be better... but the screen is maybe with more ppi but its power savin compare to s-LCD2... and the chip is also better than the s2... so i hope it will be just enouth for 1 day use
31. GUNDAM posted on 18 Nov 2012, 23:38 0
i hope so too :) but right now the battery is getting mixed reviews >_
13. JC557 posted on 15 Nov 2012, 03:24 4
My Rezound does surprisingly well for a phone with a 4.3" 720p display and old SnapDragon S3 on 1620mAH. Stand-by life is very good while mix usage is quite good.
A larger battery would've been nice considering the larger display with 1080p resolution. Hopefully the S4 Pro and new LCD3 will have advance power saving features.
If this thing is unlocked from the get go, has good battery life (considering), and is pleasing to hold/ use I can see myself buying this phone outright within the first week.
19. SuperAndroidEvo posted on 15 Nov 2012, 07:00 1
I am going to have to agree with you. The HTC Droid DNA is looking very, very sexy to me. I just hope the battery life is decent because if it is on STOCK, then once I root it will be excellent.
5. blackspot posted on 15 Nov 2012, 02:56 4
This phone just keeps looking better & better. I can't say the same for the 2,020mah non-removable battery though. But I have to admit, this phone is starting to grow on me.
9. Retro-touch posted on 15 Nov 2012, 03:03 2
HTC always put in small batteries for some reason, but either way its a solid device and it shows people can never be satisfied despite all it offers
16. blackspot posted on 15 Nov 2012, 04:56 1
As solid and as well-rounded as the HTC Droid DNA may be, HTC's decision to go with that size battery in such a powerful device is questionable at best, when compared to a phone such as the Razor Maxx HD (3300 mAh battery) and even the Galaxy Note (2500 mAh).
Though I'm not very fond of HTC's "non-micro sd card slot/non removable battery" approach, if HTC can achieve solid, if not commendable battery life in this phone, in relationship to the phone's specs and size of the screen, I will be impressed.
24. redsox420 posted on 15 Nov 2012, 07:52 0
Note 2 @ 3100 mAh..
The DNA will be DOA within 6 months. The battery life will kill this phone and HTC's chances of being a leading maker of phones.
HTC should have put at least a 3000 mAh battery and offered it to ALL carriers. But they didn't as far as we know. HTC is dying a slow costly death by sticking with one phone to one carrier. Like the EVO & others..
I'd consider this IF it were on ATT and had a better battery. This will be another Thunderbolt, just a HUGE dud
6. wendygarett posted on 15 Nov 2012, 02:58 4
Can you unlock the carrier logo as well? Coz I hate that logo :)

IMO, 1973 was Grateful Dead at it's finest. The fall '73 Winter '74 had some of the greatest shows. This show features Keith really coming into his own. His playing, along with Jerry during the 2nd set is simply unreal.
The sound on this is pretty good, not great, but good. The China/Rider is a highlight, as is the 2nd set openers Row Jimmy and Jack Straw.
But when they break into Playin'>Uncle John's Band>Dew>Uncle John's Band>Playin' it just becomes unreal. 50 minutes of non stop heaven. The Eyes>Sugar Mags is just icing.Then the shows closes with a pretty good Casey.
Keith took a lot of crap when he first came into the band. He had big shoes to fill. By this time in late '73 he was on fire.
Give it a listen..
Another 1973 Gem

This information will help you read a food label. It is based on the research we have done by interviewing food processors and experts in the field of food science.
Amaranth Amaranth comes from an herb. Gluten free and high in nutritional value, it is puffed for cereal or ground into flour.
Back to top
Arrowroot A gluten-free starch made from the root of an herb. It is a thickener that works like corn starch.
Barley A grain that contains gluten. It is found in some soups and is processed to make malt flavoring.
Brewers yeast See yeast.
Buckwheat Despite the name, buckwheat is a fruit. Nutritious and gluten free, buckwheat can be ground into flour. Buckwheat groats are the hulled seed of the buckwheat plant. When groats are roasted, they are called kasha. Buckwheat is sometimes combined with wheat flour in pancake and baking mixes, so you can't assume all buckwheat products are gluten free. Always read the label.
Caramel color Corn is used to make caramel color in the U.S. The FDA does permit use of barley malt but all major caramel color producers say corn makes a better product.
Citric Acid This ingredient is gluten free. It is usually made from corn, beet sugar or molasses. Even when made from wheat, citric acid is so highly processed and purified that no gluten protein would remain.
Corn A gluten-free grain. It is used to make corn flour, corn starch, grits, hominy, and polenta, all of which are gluten free. Also called maize. Corn gluten does not contain the protein harmful to those who have celiac disease.
Dextrin Dextrin made from corn, potato, arrowroot, rice, or tapioca is gluten free. It can be made from wheat, though this is rare and would not be gluten free. If dextrin is made from wheat, "wheat" will appear on the label.
Dextrose An ingredient made from starch, including rice, corn or wheat. It is a highly processed ingredient that is gluten free no matter which starch is used.
Flavors Flavors are rarely made from gluten-containing grains, according to the Flavor Extract Manufacturers Association. If wheat is used to make a flavor, "wheat" must appear on the label. Some flavoring is made with ethanol that comes from wheat. In that case the flavor would still be gluten free because ethanol is distilled. Distillation removes the gluten protein.
Glucose syrup A gluten-free sweetener made most frequently from corn, but also from tapioca, potato, sorghum or wheat starch. It is such a highly processed and purified ingredient that the source of the starch does not matter. Even if you see glucose syrup derived from wheat on a label, it is still gluten free.
Gluten The protein component of wheat, rye, barley, spelt, kamut, einkorn, emmer and dinkle that is toxic to those who follow a gluten-free diet. The single word gluten is rarely used on a food label. It is listed more commonly as "wheat gluten" or just "wheat." Other grains such as corn also have a gluten component. If the grain is safe, the gluten portion is safe.
Guar Gum A gluten-free thickening ingredient made from the guar bean. It is used in gluten-free baking to help provide the stretch that normally comes from gluten. It can work like a laxative if consumed in large quantities.
Herbs All plain herbs are gluten free
Hydrolyzed vegetable protein (HVP) or Hydrolyzed Plant Protein (HPP) The source of the protein should always be listed on the label of a food that contains HVP or HPP. If it is "hydrolyzed soy protein," it would begluten free; if it is "hydrolyzed wheat protein" it would not be gluten free.
Lecithin Used to thicken food, lecithin is usually made from soy and is gluten free.
Malt Malt flavoring is usually made from barley and is not gluten free. Labels do not have to specify the source of malt flavoring but some companies voluntarily note which grain is used. In rare instances, malt is made from corn and wouldbe gluten free. Malt extract, malt syrup and malt flour are made from barley and are not gluten free. See Vinegar for info on malt vinegar.
Maltodextrin Maltodextrin is gluten free. It can be made from a variety of starches, including corn, potato, rice or wheat. However the source does not matter because maltodextrin is such a highly processed ingredient that the protein is removed, rendering it gluten free. If wheat is used to make maltodextrin, "wheat" will be appear on the label. Even in this case, the maltodextrin would be gluten free.
Millet A gluten-free grain that is used as a whole seed or ground into flour.
Modified food starch An ingredient made from a variety of starches. Modified food starch is gluten free unless it is made from wheat. If modified food starch is made from wheat, "wheat" will appear on the label. Also, more and more companies are listing all sources of modified food starch voluntarily.
Mono and diglycerides Mono and diglycerides are fats and are gluten free.
Montina Brand name of a gluten-free flour made from Indian rice grass.
MSG Monosodium glutamate is a flavoring made through the fermentation of corn, sugar beets, or sugar cane. It is gluten-free.
Oats Pure oats are gluten free. However, oats require very strict growing conditions to eliminate contamination from wheat. Oats grown under normal conditions and used inmainstream oat products are rarely "pure," and are not considered gluten free.There are a few brands of gluten-free oats grown and processed in a manner that eliminates cross-contamination. These are labeled gluten free.
Oat gum Oat gum is rarely used as an ingredient. It is made from the carbohydrate portion of oats. Since gluten is a protein, oat gum would be gluten free.
Potato A vegetable used to make potato flour, potato starch and potato starch flour. It is gluten free.
Quinoa This ancient grain-like plant from South America is gluten-free and very nutritious. It can be eaten as a whole grain or ground into flour. It is also used to make nutrient-packed gluten-free pasta.
Rice A gluten-free grain. Brown, white, enriched rice and other kinds of plain rice are gluten free. Rice mixes are often seasoned and the seasoning can contain wheat which would be labeled. This is often true of wild rice mixes, though there are some brands that do not contain wheat and are gluten free. Rice flour is a common ingredient in gluten-free foods.
Rye A gluten-containing grain. Rye flour is primarily used in rye bread. Aside from rye flavoring, it is rarely used to make ingredients.
