I've just had an idea. How about putting the national champions of each playable league into one league system and having a 'proper Champions League'. Would the likes of Man United and Barca stand out or be overtaken by the champions of less successful nations. What do you think?

Quite a good idea there. I have an idea if you want to start a challenge. I can pm you if you would like to know more.
Yeah feel free to pm me, I'm open to ideas. Can't guarantee I will do it but if its good you never know
i've just had an idea hit me, but as i've got exams till mid June, i wont have time to put the idea into a game till then.
the idea is a sign up, and it will make use choosing whether the manager is male or female (still need to check the editor to see if its only player managers that can be female, or if i can set staff to be).
it would probably go along the lines of: if they all start out in the BSS/BSN, who can rise to the top first, and who can earn the most money over a period of time.
thats as far as my thinking got, feel free to rip it to pieces
ah. thats probably where i got it from. my brain must have stored it until i was bored and then popped it out, making me think it was my own idea
My Champions League is up and running http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?p=3157384
I've thought up an idea for a save . Because i've been bored of th numerous careers i've done and got really far - i need a new kind. (this is in the General Discussion but here it is) My first little idea is to put a team like Man United or Chelsea in the League 2 or BSP, take away their funds, take away ALL their coaches and players except 3 selected good players and try to totally re-build th club and return them to glory. If you have any ideas to make it better and if you like this plan - let me know!
Good idea but tbh the clubs will just go bankrupt. Still a good idea.
How will they go bankrupt? Im not meaning take ALL the money away. Enough to re-build. Cos you'd still have to take in crappy players for the time being eh? Any ideas to make it better?
Oh right. An idea for you is so they keep all their under 21 players that are English and have come through the academy.
Good idea! Do you think i should keep like three first teamers so it is still Man United or whoever?
Yep but only the diehards e.g Giggs, Scholes, G.Neville.
Are you gonna make a thread containing info etc. Might start as either Chelsea or Man U.
Im not sure yet, still thinkin bout it. Not much people have given help so i dont know yet. Ill PM you if i do.
Plan it properly before you make the thread
One major factor is that the debts will need to be wiped or at least severely cut or they'll be obliterated financially within a couple of months at the most
Got an idea for a Top Trumps style sign up.
20 people sign up supplying just their name and nationility all attributes are random. Scores are awarded based on goals, assists, etc. At the end of the season the bottom three players can challenge an opponent Top Trumps style with any attribute, if it is higher they win points to add to their attributes or take away from the player they challenged. If they lose the challenged player gets the same choice. Screen shots are PM to players so no-one knows strengths or weaknesses of your player.
I was thinking CA of 80 and PA of -8 for the players strating in BSP or similar league. Not sure what kind of points to award for challenges won - thinking about 6 points with no more than 2 to any attribute. Could also include CA and PA as things you can use points on.
Thoughts? Appreciate any feedback.
Love it. PMing would be the only way. If it's done right that could be a very successful sign-up imo.
@ CircusCarnie - Yeah, I like the idea. The thing that jumps out at me initially is the problem with screenshots. Obviously to show screenshots on these forums they need to be uploaded to a site like, for example, imageshack or photobucket. Once a link is sent to someone via PM then they would be able to navigate away from their screenshot and into the album in which all the screenshots. One way around this would be by operating on trust, although that could never be "policed".
I hope that makes sense.
1. I'd get a link from you to an image of my profile
2. I could then click on a link which would say something like "back to album", and then view everyone elses screenshots.
Is it possible to navigate back to album? Didn't know that.
Here's a link - http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/4...obigabelli.png - to a screen shot from a sign up running at the moment. It doesn't show a back to album feature so I assume it would be okay to use it this way. Otherwise it means doing them all indivually which does not appeal to me
I like the idea of the top trumps game. Another way of getting round the screenshot problem that tomsmith mentions is to attach the photos to emails which you would have directly uploaded via your computer so theres no chance of cheating. This also should ensure that the people involved would be unlikely to forget about the sign up as they would most likely check their emails often.
Edit: I just tried with that photo and I couldn't work out a way to get to others so it could work.
Yeah imageshack seems to work. I couldn't find a way of getting back to the albums.
EDIT: Is it possible to search for users from the imageshack homepage and then access their albums from there? I cant test this as I dont know anyones user name for imageshack.

good stuff. Thats the first potential problem sorted.
The other problem I envisage is people signing up and not checking in to challenge a player. Would you suggest giving the challenge to the next player on the list or no challenge at all.
In all likelyhood you will get a lot of interest in this so you will either be able to pick the people you feel are most likely to follow the sign up constantly or to get a long reserve list to easily replace the person who is not checking in.
As its the person at the bottom of the league I say they lose it. Its in their interests to check in as they have the most to gain but its up to you. You could try running a test season first to see what happens.
That would work. A way of making sure that people are around for the challenges if they are in the bottom three is to give a sensible time limit. It has to be remembered that not everyone can come on and check things everyday so a decent time period will give them as much chance as possible. Another way of cutting down on this would be to "hand select" the people who sign up instead of basing it on a first come, first serve basis. It seems that getting people to PM you with reasons why they want to join the sign-up, how active they are etc... seems to work well.
When I mentioned the user name thing in the previous post I hadn't thought of something. What has come to mind now is the fact that we don't know your user name and we can't find it from just screenshots so that makes no difference
Sounds like a great sign-up Quite a few good ideas coming up atm
I was thinking three days to make the challenge and select what attributes to increase. I work shifts so it can sometimes be a few days before I'm around anyway. The player making the challenge would be able to choose what they want to increase as soon as they select a player. There would obviously be a slight delay if they lose the challenge and the other player is not online but I don't think it would be too much of a problem.
Could you try this link it is another screen shot from my album but I have made it private. Hope this way no body would be able to search for my profile and find the screenshots but still be able to view them.
thanks for feedback so far
Only way I can see people getting round it is by searching for the image name
I don't think theres a way to look at your album from that photo. I also copied and pasted the address into google and nothing came up.
I too have tried many different rhings and not been able to locate any FM related albums. Even searching for the image name doesn't work. Seems thats solved
Feedback has been positive, thanks guys.
Another idea is to add a wildcard challenge in there. At the start of the season there is a vote from three choices. things like highest league position, most games played, worst discipline. Whoever wins the wildcard also gets to challenge a player. It would mean that players who are not scoring enough to challenge the top or to many for a bottom three will also be involved.
Credit where its due. I got this idea from blowcrapup's third prize idea in the random game
Decided to give the Top Trumps game a go.
Sign up thread is here for all interested. Forum regulars and those who gave feedback earlier will be almost certainly guaranteed a place.
Do we have any supporters of either of the old firm clubs here in CSE?
I'd go for Celtic myself.
I mean real supporters of either club, people who go to go to their games etc.
Cheap fans ftw.
By that I just meant people who consider Rangers/Celtic the club they support, I probably wrongly assumed 'I'd go for Celtic myself' to mean you just preferred them.
You a Celtic fan then?
No. Your first assumption was correct.
Anyway, if there's any Rangers Celtic fans about, send me a PM.
Why? I'm not, just really intrigued now...
You called? I obviously don't physically attend the ground every other week though...
Boo to Old Firm, Hearts is where it's at
i have a challenge idea
where you start in say the bsn and you have to make it to the top but you can only get promoted once with each team
would be hard enough
tell me what you think
Clearly it's the last Scottish team to win a European Cup Aberdeen
I'm a Celtic fan (well I say fan, my father is and I guess I'll always have a soft spot for them) but we live to far away to go to games, bar special occasions (birthdays etc.)
I know there is the career thread but I was just wondering if it might be a good idea to have a 'one club career thread' for those who tend to play with one club and take them to glory (but that club isn't a non-playable one and thus doesn't qualify for the various challenges).
For instance, I tend to have a save game with the Saints along the same lines as Dafuge's Challenge, however there isn't anywhere for someone like me to update. I imagine that there must be others like me who have picked a playable team and aren't intending on having a journeyman/career style game.
Perhaps it should be a 'Lower League Management Updates' thread instead? I'm not sure but I think something like that might be good for CSE. Might be a good idea for the future.
Any thoughts?
I don't know - they already have some sort of facility for that in GPTG don't they?
I think it's been brought up a lot by various different people and I think the answer is inevitably to post in GPTG or LLM sub forums, or the career thread. I'd have no problem with a thread like that being in the forum though.
I've always been fond of managing a non-league team, even to the extent where in Cm01/02, I went on the editor and swapped all the league teams for non-league teams...
So fast forward to FM09 where I have swapped every team in the premiership to blue square south with non league teams... it's quite difficult in the blue square south with a wage budget of £25 p/w...
So here's the link, and let me know if I should make a thread for it...
"The South African Draft with REAL Money"
I will be needing 32 (I know it's alot!) people for this sign-up. Basically, it's taking over the 1st and 2nd division in South Africa and for forum users to create 32 teams to play in the league.
First thing would be to give points (not sure how yet), and the highest scorer would get to name the top league. 2nd highest the 1st division, 3rd the next competition and so on.
These points will also determine whose teams will enter the African continental competitions.
Second, they need to name and create a team as normal. Each club would be given a high reputation (as the leagues have a high reputation), a large stadium, plenty of cash etc etc.
Each team would have a formation of 4-4-2.
Thirdly, a secret bid would take place. Each player would be given 100,000 points, to split between GK, defence, midfield and attack. The highest bidder in attack, would be given the two best CA ST/FC, the 2nd highest the 3rd and 4th etc. All players picked would be set to love the club they have been picked for, and the manager etc. Then as backups to the team, the highest bidder would get the 65th and 66th highest (to make 4 strikers). For midfield, the person who bid highest would get the best ML, MR, MC(AMC) and MC(DMC) players.
When each team has 23 players (3 GK, 8 defence, 8 midfield and 4 attack), the league would be run until halfway, with a full update on the status of both leagues, and players in each team. At this point, you will be given your teams game budget, to spend on players in the forum. You can PM, or make public bids - probably 72 hours will be given from the update and I will make the changes in the game. Then at the end of the season, with one game to go (just like the Role Models sign up) I will do a commentating update on the final game, confirming champions, and relegated and cup competitions.
As a final twist, the teams that are relegated from the 1st division (so they wont be playing in the next season) will have all their players released to the rest of the division, but might come back up (depending on the game letting them!).
At the end of the season - each manager will be allowed to put 5 players on the "transfer list" - which other teams can bid for with in game money (as mentioned before). These players will be transferred by me 1 day before the season starts so they dont move during the summer on their own!
Please let me know soon(ish) as I will need to get cracking on my test DB - also if you have any ideas let me know.
Wow, sounds like a lot of work, but if you can pull it off then fair play, sounds great
Very good Mate, as Denther said it will be alot of work but if you can do it, Could be a cracker.
Will support this mate
A quick couple of questions about the editor if anyone can help - Is there anyway to quickly delete all players from a team or nation, or do you have to do it one by one?
And is there a way to delete records (most goals, biggest win etc) from clubs' and nations' history pages?
I'm pretty sure that records can be deleted but you have to release players one by one if doing it just at the one club.
Hey Hawkini. Even though I totally hate you for being from NTI I've love to get in on that South African sign up if you do and if not, I'll support it the whole way!
dafuge - did you ever do a CSE Awards last year? If so, are you planning on bringing it back this year? It was suggested around this time IIRC.
page 6 of this thread has the first thoughts I think
Laziness!Originally Posted by dafuge;3213359[B
Awards are always very good
Cheers for the reply Paul
You know what bugs me about the editor? The different scales.
Attributes are out of 20.
Relationships are out of 100.
Languages are out of 10.
Most annoying.
I have found that aswell actually! I reckon that a scale of 20 right across (excluding reputations of course) would be the best way to fix that.
Launch of premier league
Go back to 1992 when the premiership launched and teddy got the first goal in front of the cameras. re-create database and even put in todays players i.e. a 6 year old wayne rooney and basically acheive better than sir Alex at man u i.e. win 12+ prem titles, at least 3 european cups (maybe 4) etc etc.
Staying incharge will be some acheivement aswell.
Also i believe Brian Deane scored the first ever premier league goal for Sheffield United against Man Utd
I'm not sure of the number of teams in a league can be edited either, I think there were 22 teams in the Premiership back then.
Yes, Deane got the first although I think Teddy got the first televised goal (a bit of a Sky gimmick).
Hi everybody,
I'd like to share my idea for an AI Experiment.
The Goal - The goal of the experiment is to explore the effects of running a game on Full Detail. The experiment will create multiple versions of the same save, with a different number of games in the EPL run on Full Detail. The saves will all have a certain amount of results in common with each other, and I will report, and compare and contrast, the differences in the results of each save.
The Set-Up - I'll run this experiment on FM08, 8.02. A database will be created with the English Premier League and the Coca-Cola Championship leagues running. This will be called Database A. I will immediately create a copy of this database, and call it Control.
In both Database A and Control, the Under 18s and Reserves competitions will run without Full Detail. The FA Cup, The Carling Cup, and The Championship will all be run at Full Detail. In Control, the EPL will run at Full Detail, while in Database A, it will not.
The Experiment - Both files will be holidayed 6 games into the EPL season, to the point where as many teams as possible have played 6 games, but no team has played 7. At this point, I will report on the status of Database A only. (I will not report on Control until the very end.) Both databases will be saved, and then I will create a copy of Database A, which will be called Database B. In Database B, the EPL will have Full Detail changed to on. After 6 games, Database A and B will have identical standings in all competitions.
The three databases will all be holidayed another 8 games into the EPL season, to the point where as many teams as possible have played 14 games, but no team has played 15. I will report on Databases A and B, and see what sort of differences have developed with one database having played 8 games with full detail and 6 without, and the other having played all 14 games without. At this point, another copy of Database A will be created. This will be called Database C, and it will also have Full Detail changed to on. The experiment will continue on as above.
At the conclusion of the experiment, there will be six databases, each with a different number of EPL games run at the Full Detail level.
Control - all 38 games played on Full Detail.
A - no games played on Full Detail.
B - 6 games identical to Database A, 32 games played on Full Detail.
C - 14 games identical to Database A, 24 games played on Full Detail.
D - 22 games identical to Database A, 16 games played on Full Detail.
E - 30 games identical to Database A, 8 games played on Full Detail.
At each point where I create a new save, I will report on each save, and some of the key differences that have come up.
I understand that the random nature of the AI will have a significant impact on the results. In fact, I could probably do the exact same experiment never changing the Full Detail option and come up with six completely different results. But like any good experiment, you need to be able to exert control over some element in order to create an environment for different results, and this is a lot easier to manipulate than the habits of the AI.
Thoughts, comments, criticisms welcome. This is my first go at this, so if I've missed something, or there's something you'd like to see included, please let me know.
I've got a sign-up idea, and I was hoping for some help...
Basically I want to see if anyone can "recreate" Lev Yashin arguably the best and most legendary goalkeeper in the history of football
I imagine creating about 10 players in certain selected clubs in Russia and Ukraine (possibly some other eastern european countries). Starting at 21 or 22 years old with CA about 175 and PA about 190-197. I'm too young to have seen Lev myself, but after reading up on him he's obviously have certain attributes pre-set to 19/20 and then people could select a certain number of attributes to 17/18.
I need some help though... I could do the actual sign-up thread and create the database, but I'd need someone else to run the game thread and the actual FM09 game as I don't realistically have enough computer time myself. All it would involve is a holiday game and writing updates in the game thread...
Would anyone be interested?
im in the process of making a DB for myself, and i thought i would open it up as a sign up.
the idea: the martians have landed and taken control of Gateshead in the BSN. the have murdered all the players there. realising they need players to play for them, they have brainwashed 28 of the (in my opinion) best footballing talents in the world to play for them. they will be given new names. the martians have a lot of backing (hopefully, if i got it correct), so the players will stay for a while. as they are brainwashed, they love the club.
can the martians actually win the champions league? however, the martians are slightly allergic to our level of sunlight, meaning they only have 10 seasons to complete their challenge. not all of their samples will last that long, so they also have full youth academy/facilities to replace any that fall.
where the sign up player comes in: all i need is a name for your player. i will post a list of positions with short descriptions of the players as i see them.
any good? i'll finish the DB and see if there is any interest
imo get rid of this 'martians' thing, and perhaps plant in a couple of Russian/Arab tycoons, just my opinion though and since it pretty much destroys any uniqueness your sign up has you probably shouldn't listen to me.
with martians i can get away with taking the best players in the world and renaming them, since they can obviously brain wash them . i really have no idea, its just what i threw together whilst i was waiting for the editor to load
Evil Genius? sounds good. i shall have to come up with something menacing for a name.
mad Doctor Heinrick von Gummi-Bahren has been banished from Germany for making a mind control device. he has come to England (how he got it through customs i dont know) and made a not so secret lair near Newcastle. he has taken over a small football club, and whilst testing his new toy, managed to kill all of the players at the club whilst fine tuning it. realising he needs players, he has used his device to brain wash 28 of the brightest stars in world football. they answer to his every command, although he has managed to retain most of their personalities and abilities. they all have no idea who they really are. their clubs all believe they have gone AWOL to a big party on Svalbard, which is a cunning decoy.
Heinrick's aim: to win the Champion's league within 10 seasons, and to keep all of his minions under his control for as long as they are players. he has used his device to gain millions (he hopes) of pounds to keep his club afloat. with that he has build what he believes to be a 150,000 seat stadium, full training facilities and full youth academy/facilities.
where the sign up is involved: i will post a list of positions, with a short description of the player, and all i need from people is a new name for the player, and a position they want.
notes: Heinrick is mad, some of this may not work (namely the cash and the stadium, but in the spirit of things, i wont test it. )
Well, I am going well with my first sign-up, the FMX-Factor, and have had loads of positive feedback from those involved. It's now a case of playing it through and reporting on the eliminations and stuff. Thanks for the advice I was given on here, it really helped.
Anyway, I have another sign-up idea that I want to suggest for advice. Although I won't be officially starting it until the Summer when the FMX-Factor inaugural champion has been decided, I want to get started on the setting up as I think it might take a while.
Basically, I was watching the WWE the other day (I'm not a huge fan but I do find it mildly entertaining when there's nothing else to watch!) and I thought that it could be a basis for a FM sign-up.
What I am thinking is:
- 20 CSE members to take charge of a club in the Premiership (reputations set to equal, details decided by the CSE members) and rename their club. The team to be replaced will be drafted as the backroom staff and chairman could be a positive impact on the sign-up.
- A draft using the best first elevens from the current Premiership teams (based on 442 formation) so that each CSE member is given eleven players for a 442 formation. A manager draft will also be used as well as further player drafts involving promising football league and European players.
- The aim will be to be a champion - like the WWE. We'll have a World Champion and an Intercontinental Champion but these will be determined using FM. Different types of matches will be used - sometimes the winner will be decided by highest position, best aggregate scores, best cup performances etc ... Others will be able to challenge each other in order to try and move themselves up the rankings in order to get into a better position for a title shot.
- Players will be able to be traded on the thread so that underperforming teams can improve with skill and good decision making. They will also be able to select formations etc ...
Any comments?
Cool idea - would be interesting to have a 'belt' changing hands on the basis on single matches. Perhaps when a particularly juicy weekend of fixtures comes up, you could cover it like Wrestlemania or Royal Rumble (if the pay-per-views are still called that ).
It might be an idea to get some peronalities from the WWE involved, maybe as club charimen or user-created players. Or perhaps have each person who signs up assume a wrestling personality - that would make for some great banter in the thread
I think I would have to be 'Big D'
Sounds excellent mate, and your right, your current sign-up is going well and I will definitely be interested in signing up to it!
Ok guys, need some feedback:
With my JoseRR challenge complete (conveniently after a nice round 20 seasons) I have now made a 2nd save. This save I plan on using for an experiment that I've been keen to do for a while now.
Basically the idea is so simple. I will resign my post and then observe Savona's progress without me as I holiday through the seasons. It will be very much inspired by kipfizh's Bandits experiment in terms of the presentation as well as the particular things he looks at and follows.
The intention is to see how the AI deals with maintaining a team at the top. Who they bring in to replace me. Which players stay. Which players go. Basically everything, I want to know what will happen to the great club I created!! Will they sink or swim!?
Now over to you guys (if you'd be so kind ) - firstly do you think its worth running? Would people be interested? Secondly what would you want to see in the opening post with regards to screenshots/info about the gameworld?
Any help/ideas are more than welcome guys, I'll be very grateful and if things go to plan, could be getting this up and running soon
It is definitely worth running and I would interested to see how the AI manager plays Rotunno.
Give some background info what you've accomplished over the years at Savona at a minimum. I think other people can suggest a lot more than I can...
I certainly would be interested in following the thread if you do it iacovone.
OP wise, I think a summary of your history at Savona along with details about the current squad would be needed along with an overview of the current state of affairs in Serie A (past winners screenie and recent league tables etc).
Would you be open to other people doing the same thing and posting in your thread. If I complete any of the challenges, I'D be interested in doing the same thing and it could make for a good comparison with your findings.
Overall its a great idea, good luck with it
You could also have some mini contests to determine the #1 contender, such as most points won in a month or FA Cup/League Cup/Premier League Champions getting an automatic title shot.
I think the lower ranked players shouldn't be completely ruled out though. It just wouldn't be wrestling if we didn't see some jobber pull off an upset once in a while and hold the title for a day!
One more thing - how will you work in fold-up chairs and interference in matches?
Hey GCB,
So will there be a hard core match, all tackling set to hard, most red cards wins
Looks a good idea
Daft as it sounds DodgeeD and Denther, I had thought about that - well the hardcore element anyway!
Need to decide how to work the rankings. Easiest way to explain would be with an example.
Lets say I had these players involved and after the starting Battle Royale, I have them with these points (in brackets):
1. Edge (20) --- 2. Jeff Hardy (19) --- 3. Chris Jericho (18) --- 4. Rey Mysterio (17) --- 5. Shelton Benjamin (16) --- 6. Triple H (15)
This would make Edge the World Champion and Triple H the Intercontinental Champion.
Now I would probably decide that the Title Match would be Edge vs. Jeff Hardy and would use FM to determine their result. However, Triple H might decide that he wants to improve his ranking. I'm thinking that to improve your ranking, you need to challenge and defeat someone above you. So Triple H challenges Chris Jericho - they have a difference of 3 in their points. If a player defeats a higher ranked player, they get half of the difference so Triple H would move up to 16.5 points. I'd probably round up/down in these situations or else it'd get messy!
So now we'd have Triple H above Shelton Benjamin - that sound OK?
There is no point challenging a lower ranked player as it cannot improve you.
If you are challenged by a lower ranked opponent, you cannot refuse. So, if you wanted to challenge someone, you'd have to challenge them quick before someone challenged you.
If a player was the World champion and lost the title, I'd swap the champion and the challengers ranking and points around. So if Jeff Hardy defeated Edge, Edge would drop to second on 19 points and Jeff Hardy would go first with 20 points.
How about an "vs the AI, career challenge" ?
Will require using the official DB editor (so LLM regulars may not like the concept)
Create 3-5 new AI managers with CA 100, PA 200
Contract Field to be left blank (unemployed at start of game)
Set Ambition & Determination to 15
All other attributes to be set @ 0 (Optional extra difficulty level: Physio/Chairman ratings set to 1 (this gives more weighting to the scouting/coaching & managing skills they have))
None of the added AI managers can be given a starting Reputation level that will be LOWER than you choose for your own
There should be a minimum of 2 added managers that have a starting Reputation level that will be HIGHER than you choose for your own
There should be a minimum of 1 added manager that has a starting Reputation Level EQUAL to the level you choose for yourself
Set Reputations as follows
Automatic Rep: Home 20; Current 20; World 10
Sunday league Rep: Home 30; Current 30; World 15
Semi-Pro Rep: Home 65; Current 65; World 32/33
Pro Rep: Home 120; Current 120; World 60
International Rep: Home 160; Current 160; World 80
Age 29-31 on game start (eg Dob xx/xx/1978 for FM09 users)
Staff Role : Manager 20
Prefered Formation : Any (except 424)
No preset Club or Player Likes/Dislikes
Allowable Nationalities - Only those you will be loading to create the save, so Dual Nationalities must be have both nations loaded.
Nations and League depth are optional, but i feel a minimum of 5 nations with all playable leagues enabled especially for the first few
Create your Manager choosing from Automatic, Sunday League or Semi-Pro experience ONLY, and give a dob in the xx/xx/1978 (for FM09) range, Nationality as above, finally check the Unemployed box.
From here the save runs much the same as any other Career Save challenge, how high can you climb up the footballing worlds ladder, but you need to compare how well you are performing compared to your AI Rivals
Can you earn more over your career than they do ?
Can you win more Awards, Cups and Titles than they do ?
Can you win more games, or draw and lose fewer games than they do ?
Can you last longer at 1 club (shortest AND longest time at club) than any of them do ?
Can you do it spending less, and receiving more on transfers than they do ?
If you decide to accept an offer to manage an International Team, you MUST resign from your club role (just as the AI managers do)
I would also recommend making use of the Weekly 3 file rolling Autosave feature as occasionally your AI managers will "retire" suddenly without warning or news items.
The challenge will be over when ALL your added AI managers have retired.
Thought's, suggestions and/or improvements are welcome.

Brilliant idea GCB, I'd certainly be interested.
I'd certainly be interested in finding out what would happen Iavcone, Great idea for an experiment.
I have created a manager sign-up because we have not had many this year.

So, you think that you can do a better job?
The one thing that I would like some advise on is on how I will award bonuses (increased rep, PA etc.).
I am planning on giving them for matches managed, trophys won etc.
But, I would like some obscure unexpected bonuses that I could give but I can't think of any.
Can anyone help me with an idea here?
Very good idea, Denther and I think that I will include that.

KILLEEN (October 30, 2012)--A Killeen mother was sentenced to prison Monday for burning her baby with a curling iron in April.
Jasmine Janae Morris, 18, was sentenced to seven years on an injury to a child charge after she admitted she used a hot curling iron to burn her 3-month-old daughter's hands, feet, legs and buttocks during an incident last April.
The Bell County Grand Jury indicted Morris on June 5 following her arrest after Child Protective Services workers said her 3-month-old daughter was burned intentionally.
Killeen police spokeswoman Carroll Smith said officers were sent to the CPS office in April after workers there reported they had a child who had been burned.
CPS workers told police the mother brought the infant to the office to give her up after the girl was injured.
After speaking with the baby's mother, the officers placed her under arrest.

GENESEO, N.Y. - Four State University of New York at Geneseo students have received a 2013 Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence.
The chancellor presented the award to the following Geneseo students, all seniors:
• Jessica Carl from Johnson City, N.Y.
• Olivia Derella from West Nyack, N.Y.
• Melissa Graham from Orchard Park, N.Y.
• Delfin Iglesia from Branchburg, N.J.
"The students we honor today have strong records of achievement as student leaders, scholar athletes, aspiring artists and community volunteers," said SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher in presenting the awards today in Albany. "By exhibiting excellence in class, on campus and in their local communities, these students truly represent the power of SUNY, and we honor them with great pride. Congratulations to all of the students being recognized today."
The Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence was created 15 years ago to recognize students who have best demonstrated, and been recognized for, the integration of academic excellence with accomplishments in the areas of leadership, athletics, community service, creative and performing arts, campus involvement or career achievement.
Each year, campus presidents establish a selection committee, which reviews exemplary members of their college communities who are graduating. Nominees are then forwarded to the Chancellor's Office and are subject to a second round of review. Finalists are then recommended to the chancellor to become recipients of the Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence.
Each recipient received a framed certificate and medallion, which is traditionally worn at commencement.

Baseball Claims Series Opener over Coker, 9-5February 28, 2014
ANDERSON, S.C. – Out-hitting Coker 14-3 on the night and capped off by a stellar pitching performance, Anderson University baseball captured the opening game of a three-game set against the Cobras, 9-5, Friday evening at Anderson Memorial Stadium.
Junior right-hander Spencer Earle tossed seven complete innings and held Coker hitters, who entered Friday with over 100 hits as a team for the young season, to just three hits. Earle struck out eight Cobras and did not give up his first hit until the fourth inning.
After Earle threw seven complete, junior reliever Evan Jordan closed the door on the visitors, completing two innings and not allowing a hit. Jordan faced the minimum and struck out one Coker hitter.
While the Trojans received one of their best performances of the year on the mound, Anderson's offense picked up when it left off, pounding out its third-highest total of hits for a game this season with 14. For their last two contests, the Trojans have totaled 32 hits after posting a season-high total of 18 against North Greenville on Thursday.
Leading the AU attack was sophomore first baseman Steven Cooper with three hits, including two doubles, with a run scored and an RBI. Anderson's middle infielders of Brett Cash and Kyle Bailey, who were the two hitters ahead of Cooper in the lineup, added two hits apiece as the top of the Trojan order combined for a 7-for-15 evening with two runs scored and four RBI.
With Cooper's three hits on the evening, the sophomore extended his hitting streak to 14 straight games with four games in the span being multi-hit contests. For the season, Cooper is hitting .319 with a .472 slugging percentage. Cash is now on a five-game hitting streak, while Bailey snaps a three-game hitless span.
Senior Nathan Galliford clubbed his league-leading fifth home run of the season in the first inning to give the home side an early 2-0 lead. After Earle blanked the Cobras in the top-half of the second inning, the Trojans continued their hitting spree with four hits for inning. Senior Paul Como began the bottom-half with a double down the left-field line and senior David Jones drove home Como and LJ Newman, who walked, on a two-RBI single. Later, Cash doubled to bring Jones home to give Anderson a 5-0 advantage after two innings of play. Jones would finish the evening 2-for-2 with the two RBI and a run scored.
Como would add a single in the third to finish with his second-straight multi-hit game and increasing his hitting streak to five games.
Senior Jonathan Zalud, who entered the game 7-for-7 in his last two games, finished 1-for-4 on the night, but continued his hitting streak to six games as he leads the team in average at .419.
For the night, the Trojans were able to maintain the quickness of the Cobra lineup, as they entered the night with 49 stolen bases. Coker's clean-up hitter, Fico Kondla, added two swipes on the night, bringing his league-leading total to 13 on the season.
With the win, Anderson is now 4-3 in South Atlantic Conference play and tied for fourth-place in the standings, joining this weekend's opponent, Coker. Currently, the Black and Gold is chasing Lincoln Memorial for the top-spot with a 7-2 SAC record.
AU looks for the series victory on Saturday when the teams lock up for a doubleheader. First pitch of the opening game is slated for 1 p.m.

How do I make myself more hirable?
My situation is as follows:
I'm a student, currently working on, and almost finished with, a degree in Creative Writing for Entertainment at Full Sail University. However, I do my courses online as I live in Berlin, Germany.
I have a relatively decent sized portfolio that consist of several scripts I have written, as well as 3 50+ page game design documents, 2 working flash-based prototypes, several action and reaction flowcharts, and some concept art. I like to think I write well, as that is mostly the feedback I get from companies, but I can't seem to get anywhere.
I know that the obvious answer is: "Well you don't have a degree, yet." Yes, this I am entirely aware of. However, I'm not content with just sitting alone and writing my own work anymore. I want to actually make a game that gets out there and gets played, even if it's just by my friends and family.
With this desire comes my biggest obstacle: I can never find groups of people to work with for fun as a writer. No one can see the need for me, as all of the game development groups I frequent make games of such a basic scale that there is no storyline or dialogue they need an entire person for. I try to sell my ability, or come to people with ideas, but it's always, "That's too in depth, we just want something we can do on a Saturday afternoon and have a basic, working concept out."
Because of this, and my inability to grasp the vast world that is programming, my portfolio seems a bit lacking. I constantly get feedback from companies of: "You're work is so good, but you really need to have experience on a shipped game." or "We really like what you're doing, but we just don't really have the need for a writer at any point."
Granted, the studios I have been in contact with are relatively small ones that don't produce very narrative games, but there has to be some sort of a chance? I can't just walk into a huge company, throw my resume on the desk, having no real work experience, and walk out with a job.
If anyone has any ideas as to how I can market myself better that would be excellent. I'm sick of getting, "You've applied to the right place, but we just don't have any positions open for you at this time." responses.
Very sorry for the long post. Obviously if more information is required I'd be glad to oblige. Too long, didn't read; How can I make myself more hirable without having any shipped/really playable products?

Dear P_George,
You have received an infraction at Pacers Digest.

Boy some of these calls...
Thanks Frank!
There is no NBA player named Monte Ellis.
Meanwhile, the Heat are burying the Jazz in the third. They can afford to play possum for a half.
The Pacers can't.
Yeah, not gonna win when your 2 best players play that bad.
This would make sense if the Heat didn't lose to this team at home as well.
There is no NBA player named Monte Ellis.
if nothing else hopefully this loss helps us regain our focus that we can't just roll in and just expect to win, detroit knew they'd get rolled if they weren't on top of their game and thus brought the necessary effort good game for them as long as we kick miami's *** on wednesday I could really care less.
Scola would have made that

When I open Google Calendar on my Android phone, it starts up showing October 1 2011. The phone knows the current date; pressing menu and then the today button goes to the correct day. I'd just like it to default to today like it did before 10/1. Any ideas?
This is Calendar 2.3.6, Android 2.3.6 GKR39F, on a Nexus s.
This forum thread seems to describe the same problem, but it's unresolved.

An example from Diablo 3:What is this view style called?
These games are example of parallel projections, so named because lines that are parallel in the 3D space remain parallel in the 2D display. In games these are usually - but not always - axonometric projections.
An isometric projection is a type of axonometric projection. Sometimes this term is used in games as a catch-all for all kinds of axonometric projections, but this is not accurate. In an isometric projection, not only do parallel lines remain parallel, but the angles between axes are preserved (hence iso, equal).
Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, and many other games which are often said to use "isometric graphics", actually are closer to dimetric projections (since they're hand-drawn, it's hard to tell and a bit inconsistent between sprites). Diablo (including III I believe) is using a real isometric projection.
Contrasting the parallel projection is the perspective projection, in which parallel lines get closer together and objects get smaller as they get further away.
This is generally referred to as isometric view.
While it is true that these games in the past used dimetric projection (nod to @JoeWreschnig), and that gamers and game devs call this "view from the corner" isometric projection (nod to @Beofett)... Both Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 use something else - perspective projection.
As there is much discussion on each answer, I'll try to word an answer to rule them all.
The general, colloquial term is "top-down view" or "top-down perspective". If contrasted to games like World of Warcraft or first-person games, it can also be called "fixed-camera view".
Exact projection types differ.

How to solve the key distribution encrypted with the public key? How to make public key authentication? How to distribute public keys in the network without losing its credibility?
closed as not a real question by Gilles, rook, Scott Pack, Terry Chia, Iszi Nov 5 '12 at 14:29
It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Distributing a public key does not affect its security. That's why it's called a public key. If you, on the other hand, distribute the private key, then in that case you will be giving everyone who has access to that private key the authority to act as if they own the key pair.

Sorry - Thanks.
I liked it better (and bought it) yesterday when it was $19.99.
Anyone found the Bluray's for a good price?
I liked it even more when Target had the same for $9.99 last month, as announced on this site. I was one of fortunate few to grab one before they were gone.
Up to $39.99 now? That was the price I saw when I added it to the cart

Melinda's Garden
The hotel description is not the opinion of the owner but solemnly composed of customer reviews.
It is really close to Paradise. The sea is fantastic, the sand is white and the beach is surrounded by coconut palms which give you a fantastic view close to a Hollywood movie.
Melinda's Garden is closed to Station, at the quieter end of the beach. The walk to the beach is literally 2 minutes. It is excellent. The place is easy to find as it is sign posted from the main beach strip.
Melinda's Garden is an amazing tropical garden full of plants and trees.
It is a piece of natural atmosphere hidden away from the monstrous concrete hotels on the island. Melinda's Garden offers a taste of more tranquil times in Boracay before recent developments began threatening the harmony of the island.
The cottages are made of bamboo and coconut leaves with a bathroom made of stone and a fantastic veranda with hammock, table and bamboo chairs. The hammock is a great place to relax and take a break from the sun. The rooms are awesome, so romantic and clean every day. These traditional huts make a nice difference to all the other resorts on the island and although the standard cottages are simple, you get everything you need for a great price. It feels rustic and homey - just what you are looking for.
In the Aircon and Aircon Deluxe Cottages they try to combine the rustic style with some luxury: fresh sheets, towels (including beach towels) everyday, refrigerator, TV and king-size beds.
Cottages in the jungle (at least it feels that way), yet close to famous White Beach but away from the party area. The quiet relaxation of drinking coffee on a hammock in the morning with maybe only a curious lizard for company is an experience that cannot be matched by a 4 star tourist hotel with impersonal buffet style service.
The staff is so helpful and friendly, always available for anything, no matter what time of day. They even give you beach mats, books and fresh coconuts directly from the tree. They answer your questions and give you information about the island. A nice little bar serves breakfast and there is a little massage hut on site where you can have cheap massages at any time.
Cooper, the dog might look scary and bark when you arrive but he is really harmless. The cats around the property are so nice and cute.
Even so the area is the quietest of the island it is not so far from the nightlife with plenty of entertainments, restaurants and night shows. Everything is quite cheap there. Transport around the island costs a few cents. Tattoos are as well cheap as massages. The food is great and the fish is fresh at surprisingly cheap prices. It is really worth to try fresh coconut as a drink and a meal as well as tropical fruits like mangoes and papayas which taste great here. You can eat for as little as 1 euro per meal and 5 euro for a tremendous 'Eat all you can' fish dinner with plenty of fresh oysters. If you are travelling alone it is so easy to find a nice company. What else do you want from a holiday?

How to get to Melinda's Garden:
- Upon arrival at the Caticlan airport, take a 5-minute tricycle ride to the Jetty Port. This costs 50 pesos.
- Enter the Jetty Port building and buy your boat ticket as well as pay the terminal and environmental fees. The boat ticket costs 25 pesos, the terminal fee 75 pesos and environmental fee cost 100 pesos.
- Then you take a 10 minute boat ride to the Jetty Port in Boracay. This is located on the southern side of the island and is quite far from the white beach.
- Once in Boracay take a tricycle ride to the White Beach. This costs 20 pesos per person. Tell the tricycle driver that you want to go to Boat Station 3 and to Melinda's Garden. He will drop you off at the main road at a centre point.
- The road from the centre point to the white beach is a long and straight cement road. Keep walking until you reach the beach. This walk takes about 5 minutes.
- Once at the beach, turn to the left and after a 100 metre walk you will reach our sign board. We have a laundry and souvenir shop half way, which you can use as orientation.
Another possibility to get to Melinda's Garden from the Jetty Port in Boracay is to hire a whole tricycle. This costs 100 pesos. Tell the tricycle driver that you want to go directly to Station 3 and he will bring you almost to the beach.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW)__In one of the more crowded City Council meetings in quite some time, Topeka welcomed a brand new era of elected city officials.
With his last strike of the gavel, outgoing Mayor Bill Bunten ushered in a new wave of elected officials who will serve the capital city.
Larry Wolgast began his first day as Topeka mayor in front of a packed crowd inside the council chambers. He said, "It's exciting and great for the council and for the city I think.
Once settled in, the new look Topeka City Council, which features women on the majority, made some first day decisions.
District 1 Councilmember Karen Hiller and new District 2 Councilman John Campos were voted by their colleagues to serve on the Metropolitan Topeka Planning Organization board.
New District 5 Councilmember Michelle De La Isla and Councilman Chad Manspeaker will serve as 2013 board members on the Joint Economic Development Organization.
Councilmembers chose Mayor Wolgast as Chair of that same JEDO committe.
Replacing Mayor Wolgast as Deputy Mayor in unanimous fashion is District 3 Councilmember Sylvia Ortiz.
Getting the new group of elected officials to mesh will take time but Mayor Wolgast says the diverse group is great for Topeka.
We have ideas and opinions and represent different areas, but thats good. That happens with anything but we will have to compromise and sacrifice to decide how to move all this forward
City Manager Jim Colson announced a neighborhood summit will be held April 20th.
It is meant to enhance the relationship of city officials with the community.

Save 75% on Sid Meier's Civilization V on Steam for $7.49
Gods and Kings Expansion is also down to $7.49
All downloadable content upgrade only $5
Everything else also 75% off
5 Comments add a comment
FWIW, reviews of Civ V from regular players seem to say that it isn't as good as some of the older ones. (Check the Amazon Downloadable games sale.) I just grabbed the complete Civ IV off a steam sale the other day so I need to play through that one before I try Civ V.
I bypassed this edition, but at this price, I'm ready. Is this just the Civ V and I need to get the expansions separately? I'm feeling a bit dense today and can't quite get my head around it on the site.
The Civilization 5 game of the year edition comes with all the DLC but Korea and Wonders of the World add-ons, but you could toss another 2-4 dollars to buy those too if you felt obliged. It also doesn't include the expansion Gods and Kings, which adds things like espionage and religions which are prominent in early Civs.
Be warned however, if you haven't upgraded your computer in a couple of years it's going to take a dive in late rounds of games using maps above standard size.
I would say give either the game of the year or straight vanilla edition a try just to see if you like the changes before you make further purchases.
Or get the Amazon bundle:
I got it yesterday, better deal (same price) than steam offers if you are interested in getting steam Civ4 complete thrown in for free, and Stronghold (windows only) on steam as well for free.
Get the Amazon Bundle and don't look back. Civ V with Gods & Kings is loads of fun AND you still get the complete Civ IV if it's not to your liking. I was hesitant on Civ V myself, but I am VERY glad now that I picked up the bundle.

Known for his fabulous, long blonde hair and outrageous personality, Wil Heuser of Louisville, Ky., will compete as one of 12 houseguests (HGs) on season 14 of CBS's "Big Brother."
Premiering Thursday, July 12, BB14 won't be the first time Heuser, 24, has appeared on reality TV. During season 8 of "American Idol," his audition was featured as one of the more unique performances with his strong vocal range, complemented by some slightly bizarre facial expressions.
His audition invoked laughter in judge Simon Cowell, but that didn't faze Heuser, who's used to adding comedy to his musical routine. Gaining fame as host of the YouTube sensation "The Wil Show," Heuser has proven he doesn't take himself too seriously, and there's little he's afraid to reveal to the camera – as seen in the music videos for "I'm Still Hot" and "Glitter on the Dancefloor."
Listed as a marketing consultant on Big Brother's website, Wil has spent much of his life traveling the world, singing and dancing. Though afraid of snakes and bananas, Heuser's outgoing nature and ability to make people laugh should put him at an advantage on the show, along with a flat iron, an iPod and a bottle of Woodford Reserve.
"(I'd bring with me) a flat iron since I have crazy hair and I have to keep it in check! An iPod because music helps me think and meditate. A bottle of Woodford Reserve… I'm from Kentucky – Bourbon – it's in my blood," he said in an interview for the "Big Brother" website.
While already well-known around Louisville and cyberspace, as cast member on "Big Brother," Heuser's fame is likely to shoot through the roof. "I wouldn't change much in my life. Fame comes and goes. I would, however, probably use a little bit of press to help bring light to causes close to my heart," Heuser said.
Fame may come and go for some, but for Heuser it's inclining steadily – further demonstrating that this musical genius is, in fact, still hot.
"Big Brother" Season 14 premieres Thursday, July 12, at 9 p.m. ET on CBS.

This may be a very basic question but I am not seeing how it works. Consider the standard example of an ice skate rotating about his/her center of mass and pulling in his/her arms. The torque is zero so we have conservation of angular momentum. This implies that $\omega$ increases to keep $I\omega$ constant, but then $K_{rot}=\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$ doesn't stay constant, it increases. This implies that there is work done, but what force is doing this work?
The energy comes from the ice-skater's muscles; they have to work to pull their arms in.
There is no external work done on the skater - the energy is converted from the chemical potential energy stored in the skater's body to kinetic energy.
Work is being done by the force that rearranges distribution of matter. If you want to pull in your arms, you have to fight centrifugal force.You can see it as being in some kind of a force field, much like gravitational, for example.Work done by your muscles while contracting your arms is just integral of a force over some path.

It's a funny thing to be raised by both parents, go to a good school, get a few good jobs, then look back at the journey I've made over the years. And with all that I've accomplished, I can't help but feel a little bit guilty. A little bit confused. A little bit like I haven't maximized the opportunity that's been given to me.
EBONY.com gave me the opportunity to attend the launch event for MANIFEST, a discussion amongst men about men and, in particular, fatherhood. There I was, the introverted guy I can be at times, sitting with a room full of extroverts clawing to express their lives, their ideals, and the philosophies that have guided them through time. And there I was, reflecting on everything I've been through and looking for the right words to express myself in front of cameras and a group of strangers.
I found myself sitting there and thinking about the last time I had such an intense conversation with Black men, and I couldn't find anything to compare it to. I couldn't find one example of where I felt so inspired, so introspective, so enlightened by the sound bytes of men that have existed in a timeline so different from my own. Every demographic of the Black man was represented at B Braxton's. Every demographic of the Black man had given up his Sunday to engage in not only a real discussion, but an important one. To my left was Jermaine Spradley from Single Black Male, and to my right was David Lemieux, father of EBONY.com's News and Lifestyle Editor Jamilah Lemieux (who I came to know in her "Sister Toldja" days). I remember making the connection to who he was and immediately thinking of how proud a man he must be to attend an event moderated by his daughter. I asked him about it and his response was simple:
"I'm so proud. So very proud of what she's done."
It was that type of day. I had no idea of what I was getting myself into when I RSVP'd, but I was glad I attended. I couldn't help but feel proud myself. Not just because of her, but because of all the men that showed up. Proud to be in a room with so many talented and opinionated Black males. It was both a rarity and an oddity. I found myself thinking about the last time I was in a room with so many Black men open to discussing issues that are usually saved for blog posts and unremembered nights filled with alcohol and...other stuff. I couldn't find an event to compare it to. I felt blessed.
I've been on panels. I've been interviewed. I've been asked to share my thoughts on a myriad of topics with the world. But nothing compared to what I felt in that room.

We are not "old Black" nor "new Black" we are ALL Black.
I've been on panels. I've been interviewed. I've been asked to share my thoughts on a myriad of topics with the world. But nothing compared to what I felt in that room. Nothing compared to raw honesty, the brutal realism, the truth about what men think on topics that are rarely discussed.
The question that led off the discussion -- posed by moderator L'Heureux "Dumi" Lewis-McCoy --was "At what point did you become a man?" We were asked to share our answers in one sentence, which you can imagine was difficult. And with that being the case, the first few men to speak couldn't condense their thoughts into a brief string of words. They told stories. Stories that I couldn't necessarily identify with, but they resonated all the same. I listened to each as the words got nearer to me. And as the voices got closer, the magnitude of my answer amplified. I wanted to be candid. I wanted to say something potent. But all l I could think about was the passing of my father, and how I had to pull myself together for the sake of my family and, most importantly, my mother.
Legally, I became a man when I turned 18. But emotionally, I didn't become a man until my father passed when I was 25. I can remember being at work, getting a phone call from my mom around 11am, and knowing that it couldn't be anything good. I'd dreaded the call for years, but something told me that this time my worst fear was about to become tangible. An event that would change my life forever.
My father's passing was the first time something deeply tragic happened to me, but it wasn't about me. It was about my family. It was about my mother's mental and emotional well-being. And for me, it was about being stoic at a time when I felt my emotions bursting through the seams of my denial. It was about keeping myself together when the emotional glue was breaking down before everyone.
I still think about the day I had to take his favorite suit to the

this is my first time here and i am new in the bike sport. I have a mtb for a month now and i usually use it for road trips with some dirt intervals. It has a 7 speed shimano cassette (14-34) and on the road it seems too light now. I would like to change it to an 8 or 9 speed cassette with 11-30 or 11-32 assembly. Is this possible with my current hub or will i need to replace the whole rear assembly? Of course i will also change the shifter. Thank you all in advance

You don't need to change the whole hub, but you might well find it easier to do so. You will need a new freehub body.
The new hub assembly might be wider - http://sheldonbrown.com/frame-spacing.html#standard - in which case you will need to redish the wheel to get it central again. You can probably get away with using the same axle, as also described on that page, but you might need a new quick release skewer.
And you may need to spring the dropouts apart by 5mm. If you don't have a steel frame, and it's 130mm at the moment, give up and live with the 7 speed. http://sheldonbrown.com/frame-spacing.html#frameadjustment (or use a road hub, I guess).
EDIT: heltonbiker makes a good point about freehub vs. freewheel. I'd been considering upgrading my own bike which has a 7 speed cassette on freehub, and forgotten that a newer 7 speed might well be a freewheel, even though your question does say cassette. See http://sheldonbrown.com/free-k7.html (And even if you really mean cassette, someone else searching might have a freewheel.)
I've recently upgraded my wife's bike from 7 to 9. I replaced rear hub (old hub had threaded freewheel, not cassette), chain, cassette, rear mech and shifter. Also replaced gear cables (as inner and outer) but that might not be required. It is likely that you'll need to do all of that. Even if your hub has 7sp cassette mount, it is unlikely to accommodate 9sp cassette, as they have different width.
Quite a radical upgrade, but well worth it!

Heidi Klum: "I'm Proud of Being the Curvy Model"
Richie Buxo/Splash News Online
Heidi Klum didn't plan on walking the runway of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last night, but let's just say she's a little bit impulsive. "I felt great the night of the fashion show and decided last minute to walk," the supermodel, 36, who welcomed daughter Lou, with husband Seal, last month, tells PEOPLE exclusively. Klum, who had already been fitted for her dress, opened the Enchanted Forest-themed part of the show, wearing a vine-strewn corset and a full white skirt. "I loved my outfit," she says, "so I thought, why not?" Her surprise appearance, known only to Victoria's Secret insiders, drew screams and applause from a shocked audience during the live show Thursday night. Though Klum, who was expected only to host the festivities, said that while her new job behind the scenes meant there was "definitely less pressure," walking in the show was a thrill for her. "I'm proud of being the curvy model on the Victoria's Secret stage," she says, adding that she enjoyed the show herself. "The Black Eyed Peas and all of the looks for the show were fantastic!" You can watch Heidi — and all the Angels — hit the runway when the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show airs on CBS at 10pm EST on Dec. 1.–Charlotte Triggs

Clarification of Radiation Therapy-related Information in Time
Please use for reference only.

To the Editor:
While your article on prostate cancer (Medicine, April 1) successfully educates the public about the need for diagnosis and treatment, it does a disservice to the hundreds of thousands of men treated with radiation therapy by failing to include remarks from specialists in the field. Radiation is a standard therapy for this disease and is performed as often as surgery.
Results from several major institutions show that 40% to 60% of all patients treated with radiation for all stages of prostate cancer have a favorable prostate-specific antigen test five years after treatment. Results for patients comparable to surgical candidates are even better. The American Urological Association, which has analyzed all the available data on radiation and surgery, has concluded that "there was no clear-cut evidence for the superiority of any one treatment." Please set the record straight on the success of radiation as an important treatment option for prostate cancer patients.

Missing "operation" argument in Store Load Event
Since last Architect update (2.1.0 B676), "operation" argument is removed, why ?
How can I catch "operation.error" property when store load fails ?

26 Nov 2012 12:12 PM #6
This is more of a framework question than an Architect question, but I think the store's load event does not include the Operation object because an Operation is closely tied to a Proxy, and the load event can be fired by stores that do not have a proxy.
You should take my advice with a grain of salt, and follow up in the Ext JS forums if it doesn't work, but I would look into the 'exception' event fired by the proxy: http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-1/#!...vent-exceptionJason Johnston

Lake home and cabin kit, second edition
NOTE: This is a Web Sampler. Information about the publication and how to order is available here.
Welcome to the newly revised, second edition of the Lake Home & Cabin Kit. The excellent response we received from the first edition prompted us to further develop the topics, which so many lake home and cabin owners found helpful.
You spoke. We listened! Our customer survey showed that our first edition Kit answered your most common cabin questions such as how to prevent septic systems from freezing, how to prevent erosion of your shoreline, and how to protect trees during construction. But you asked for more.
Our University of Minnesota Extension experts once again went to work to add resources and refine and develop new information. The Lake Home & Cabin Kit, Second Edition not only answers more questions such as how to start your septic system in spring and preparing it for the fall, what you should know about heating your home or cabin, and even how to create your own rain garden...it also directs you to our programs, publications, and websites for more in-depth advice. Plus, the second edition is updated to include all current environmentally responsible practices that you need to know about as a property and lakeshore owner.
Another bonus; we've added even more excellent resources from the University and other trusted sources. The information you'll find in these pages comes to you from the University of Minnesota Extension so you know it's reliable.

I noticed a couple of small issues when checking out the 2.0 version.
- When you click somewhere that causes one of the colorpicker indicators to animate to the new position, the color at the new position is applied immediately to the swatch in the picker, not after the indicator has stopped moving.
- The text fields for RGB/HSV all resist selecting the text in them. This can make it quite interesting to figure out just how one would go about keying in new values. Either change the fields to allow manual selection or change them to auto-select the value upon focus/click.
Additionally, I have a couple of feature ideas.
Jeff Howden
- The text boxes that take numeric values ought to use the spinner UX posted in these forums so that there's a clear indication of how to change the values along with superb keyboard interaction.
- I'd like to see this ux as an extension to a trigger field so those that need more than colorfield has to offer can use this.

I've made a draggable version of this. There's only a few lines to add, so it's fairly simple. I'm also making a field wrapper for this, so it can be easily tied to fields/field buttons etc. I'll post them both when I'm done.

#ux-colorpicker .x-window-body { border: 0pt none !important; }

Hi guys I am not able to install Ubuntu 11.10/SUSE on my new Sony Vaio, All the Linux distributions get hanged on the Initial USB boot saying "Syslinux 4.04 EDD XYZ"
Can anyone suggest how can I proceed with the installation.
Configuation of system is as below: AMD E450 6320 GPU AMD VT Enabled 2GB RAM 320 GB HDD
I have tried 32 bit and AMD64 bit versions of Ubuntu.
thanks Shakti


text: Hi! I'm back with another tutorial, this time requested by Dizzy_Duckie. This will teach you how to draw Swiftkill, a wolf from an awesome onine Graphic Novel called The Blackblood Alliance. Hope this helps those who are having trouble drawing her :D for this tutorial I used Paint.Net, but it doesn't realy matter what you use, pencil and paper or Photoshop it's all good.
