Dell announces Latitude 10 business tablet
Dell has updated its business line of Latitude kit to include a laptop, all-in-one and a tablet. The Latitude 10 uses Intel's new Atom SoC, has 2GB of RAM and features a 1366 x 768 10.1" IPS screen. It also runs on a full version of Windows 8, not RT.
Corning Gorilla glass keeps the screen safe, which incidentally will also work with an optional Wacom Active stylus. Internal storage can go all the way up to eMMC 128GB drives. There are also WLAN, Bluetooth and mobile broadband options.
The Latitude 10's battery is removable and can be upgraded to a 4-cell 60WHr lithium ion, but ships with a 2-cell 30 WHr. USB 2.0, full size SD, headphones, micro-USB, micro-SIM and mini-HDMI complete a pretty robust tablet package. There's a 720p 2 megapixel camera on the front and an 8 megapixel on the rear with LED flash, should you fancy taking a few snaps.
The OptiPlex 9010 is Dell's new business all-in-one. With a 23-inch touchscreen and Windows 8, it fits nicely into the all-in-one world. There is a choice of Intel Q77 chipsets going all the way up to i7. Intel has also built in its vPro system management tech to make things easier for business managers and IT professionals.
An optional HD4000 integrated graphics chip should make the computer a bit quicker in the graphics department. Then there is up to 16GB of RAM for apps. Choices of hard drive include 1TB HDD and 128GB SSDs, there is also a 320GB Opal FIPS-certified self encrypting drive. A Blu-ray player has been added for good measure - which is a nice touch on a business computer.
Finally we have the Latitude 6430u laptop. Featuring a 14-inch 1366 x 768 display, up to an i7 processor and all the same system management offerings as Dell's new all-in-one. RAM takes a hit and can only go up to 8GB, but there are also options of up to a 256GB self-encrypting SSD.
Built-in mobile broadband options, WLAN and a choice of either 3-cell or 6-cell replaceable batteries keep the laptop portable. There is an external only optical drive, not one built in.
On the front is a HD fixed-focus camera for video calling. Added security comes in the form of an optional smart card and fingerprint reader.
Good stuff really from Dell and nice to see such a powerful tablet making its way to businesses. From the brief play we had, all three handled well and the matte effect used certainly felt nice across all the new Latitude products.

If you have cracked manifolds on your Titan/Armada, stop thinking of replacing with OEM manifolds and get these JBA long tubes. The install isn't fun if you do it yourself, but the price/performance can't be beat and you won't have to worry about cracked manifolds ever again. I got the regular stainless steel headers, and after they go through a few heat cycles they aren't quite as pretty, but you'll probably never see them again. You can definitely hear and feel a nice little power increase.

There was a small burr from the coating on the flange. Easily removed with a Dremel or similar. Just cruising it doesn't any louder, a little growl when getting on it. Definitely felt like there was more bottom end.

20 yr old TB mare with two different feet
This is so typical to see in horses! One foot is very upright and "clubby" while the other is flat and either under-run or foundered. The trick is to get the contracted foot to open up while getting the flat foot to tighten up it's connection. With this mare, both feet were almost dead with very little blood circulation from years of shoes and contraction. She was very shut down and depressed with poor conditioning. This photo was taken BEFORE trimming. The clubby foot has a very contracted coffin bone that probably has a lot of bone loss.
After a few trims
Still apparent is the difference in the two feet. Since this horse has only had a couple of trims, she is still in the beginning stages of transition to health. But she has already improved in her attitude and movement.

An amazing journey through the thriving worlds of fantasy and gaming What could one man find if he embarked on a journey through fantasy world after fantasy world? In an enthralling blend of travelogue, pop culture analysis, and memoir, forty-year-old former D&D addict Ethan Gilsdorf crisscrosses America, the world, and other worlds-from Boston to New Zealand, and Planet Earth to the realm of Aggramar. "For anyone who has ever spent time within imaginary realms, the book will speak volumes. For those who have not, it will educate and enlighten." -Wired.com "Gandalf's got nothing on Ethan Gilsdorf, except for maybe the monster white beard. In his new book, Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks, Gilsdorf ...offers an epic quest for reality within a realm of magic." -Boston Globe "Imagine this: Lord of the Rings meets Jack Kerouac's On the Road." -National Public Radio's "Around and About" "What does it mean to be a geek? ...Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks tackles that question with strength and dexterity...part personal odyssey, part medieval mid-life crisis, and part wide-ranging survey of all things freaky and geeky ...playful ...funny and poignant...It's a fun ride and it poses a question that goes to the very heart of fantasy, namely: What does the urge to become someone else tell us about ourselves? " -Huffington Post --このテキストは、ペーパーバック版に関連付けられています。
from Kirkus Reviews, "Big Book Fall Preview":"In the late '70s, playing fantasy role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons put [Ethan Gilsdorf] on equal social footing as the AV club. Thirty years later, though, fantasy films rule the box office, J.R.R. Tolkien is considered essential reading and games like World of Warcraft are pop-culture phenomena... But there are still pockets of fantasy culture-Lord of the Rings conventions, Society for Creative Anachronism battles, LARP (Live Action Role Playing) camps-that the casual fantasy nerd wouldn't even dare to tread... 'I wanted to know why a 40-year-old man is still so interested in this stuff that he'd dress up in armor on the weekends,' [Gilsdorf] says. The author traveled from the woods of South Carolina to libraries in Wisconsin, from battlefields in Pennsylvania to the mountains of New Zealand-all in the quest to find some answers. His conclusion? They get to the heart of why any of us, geeks or not, become involved with any group. 'It's all about a sense of belonging,' says Gilsdorf. And maybe a bit about killing stuff." "This is a delightful book-more fun than being a Dungeon Master to a group of high-level mages and thieves." -A.J. Jacobs, New York Times best-selling author of The Know-It-All and The Year of Living Biblically "Witty, downright funny, poignant, honest and ... well, wistful. Anyone who has ever embraced 'escapism' will understand, and those who haven't taken that leap of imagination will want to after reading Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks... Reading Ethan Gilsdorf's tale conjured my own D&D and fantasy experiences, vividly, right down to finding some of my old character sheets in a 3-ring binder a decade and more after I had stopped using them." -R.A. Salvatore, New York Times best-selling author of The Dark Elf Trilogy, and lead storyteller of 38 Studios game company "A fun, quirky and fresh perspective for those wanting to know more about the amazing world of gaming." -David Brin, futurist and Nebula, Hugo, and Locus Award-winning author of The Postman and Startide Rising "Ethan Gilsdorf's quest for himself leads through the fantasy world of millions of gamers in a breathless adventure/quest/memoir that is uniquely contemporary. This is at once a primer on the world of gaming, a self-help manual, and a wistful meditation on the passing of real time in a (nearly) virtual world."-Andrei Codrescu, NPR commentator and author of The Posthuman Dada Guide "An Orcs-and-all journey through geekdom, told with affection for every elf, wizard and dungeon master it meets along the way. Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks is for anyone who's ever been lured by the enchantment and secrets of faraway fantasy worlds; meticulously researched and lovingly told, the book gives a personal face to the cloak-swishing, wand-wielding, lightsaber-rattling gamer in us all." -Melissa Anelli, author of Harry, A History: The True Story of a Boy Wizard, His Fans, and Life Inside the Harry Potter Phenomenon "Vivid, moving, evocative, intriguing, engaging." -Chris Castellani, author of A Kiss from Maddalena and The Saint of Lost Things "Gilsdorf ... returns to the fantasy games that he used to navigate a difficult childhood as a jumping-off point for a full-scale investigation of geekdom." -Huffington Post "A detailed, funny, and loving account of all things dorky." -The Wire "Like many who will pick up his book, [Ethan Gilsdorf has] got one foot squarely in the real world, the other in the fantasy one. This is a journey well worth taking." -Booklist --このテキストは、ペーパーバック版に関連付けられています。商品の説明をすべて表示する

If you're someone who put the dice away a long time ago and are wondering whether it's okay to feel like dusting them off again...or if you never were involved in such hobbies and are wondering if it's okay for your significant other to be...then this book may be written just for you.
If you're still avidly into these pursuits, then you may come away from this book feeling a bit unsatisfied. I felt like I'd read a book that said "It's okay for you to be into this stuff", and I was saying, "Well...yeah. I knew that. Thanks." It's still worth reading the book, as he has a lot of enjoyable stories along the way...just don't hold your breath for any deep revelation at the end.
I felt the angst that Ethan dealt with as he slipped back into gaming and fantasy after years of self-denial. Anyone who has felt that twinge of embarassment over being a gamer or fantasy fan will enjoy Ethan's journey and obeservations.
I certainly did.
The book confused me a little and like a previous reviewer mentioned, you read and are left with "....well, and now what - what did I learn?" He identified an issue with his mother early on and I think he should have embraced that a bit more in his findings and carried through MORE - maybe the fact that there are many people he met who also were geeks and they all lived through this fantasy life at one point, but each of us have moments of harsh reality that will either not allow us to continue on on this path (for him, his mother's failing health) or you embrace it and become a geek regardless in the open. There were moments of this, but lots of empty pockets.
Hard to say, but the book was just flat from mid way (the online gaming part) through the end. Maybe for me there is no issue here for me - I am a geek in my heart and I also made that trek 3 years ago to my local gaming shop to see what has changed after 15+ years and I was ok with that. Did Ethan finally find the right balance here? Hard to say - maybe a second book will improve on a few of the issues I picked out.
In the first and admittedly more readable piece, he outlines in tones of sad nostalgia the affliction of his mother, his escape from that and his marginalization at school, and the repercussions he feels now in his forties at choosing the easier road of escapism over trying harder to be there for a mother who was at the same time both suffering and very difficult to love. He provides through carefully chosen and striking imagery a potent glimpse into awkward adolescence in the 1970's even for a reader who wasn't alive then or did not experience the same difficulties, and is at once both emotional and objective. In this former part, he shows the roots of his entrance into fantasy fandom and much of his sentiment about how it affected him. It is, in and of itself, a touching memoir.
The second part, hinted at when he first speaks of going off to college and growing up past the phase of Dungeons & Dragons and J.R.R. Tolkien and begun at full speed after the near-cathartic moment involving the blue cooler, is rather like listening to a tape on a machine that's running out of batteries. The narrative begins strongly, connected through Tolkien to the world of fantasy fandom at large, but steadily slowing down and dwindling in energy and enthusiasm to the end, by which time we're left with the unfortunate impression of a grown man playing with toys in the woods and growing continuously more pissed off that he can't get a decent girlfriend who shares his interests. The latter half of the SCA segment and more or less the whole convention trip are pretty much disconnected from the rest of the work by an incessant, almost nagging theme of "I can't bed a woman." I found this to detract tremendously from the original intent of the book. In addition to that, the final chapter places the author in New Zealand (a thoroughly beautiful place), a journey "to Middle-Earth" which should be the culmination of a great personal and emotional journey. However, the entirety of the trip feels tacked-on, as if Gilsdorf didn't feel like he had enough to finish his book yet, but really didn't have anything left to explore. More than anything, the end of the work reads like the author gave up, shrugged, and said in a resigned tone, "That's good enough."
My recommendation is to pick up the book, to be certain. Read the first part, where he touches on some things that are universal to humans who have survived childhood. Read the beginning of his quest, on the pub crawl with the Tolkien society, as some of the people he meets and their insights prove equally relevant and wide-reaching. Read his adventure into LARPing. If nothing else, it provides some eye-opening examination of a world I had joined the larger society in snubbing. And then stop.
The author does visit some interesting people, but instead of exploring them in any amount of detail, we get his boring whining and introspections. The book is not labelled as an autobiography and thus such ramblings should be kept out of it.
All in all, other books would be of better service to readers interested in this topic.

DAVIE -- Miami Dolphins cornerback Will Allen was placed on injured reserve Sunday, ending any hope the 10th-year player had of returning from mid-August knee surgery.
Coach Tony Sparano refused to disclose specifics on why Allen, who had started all 43 games he spent with the Dolphins over the past four years, was placed on IR. The move was among a flurry of activity for the Dolphins over the weekend.
"I'm not going to get into the specific reason why we did any of these things," Sparano said, "but I just think that it's something that had to be done right now."
Among the Dolphins' other moves Sunday they terminated the contracts of defensive ends Charles Grant and Marques Douglas and guard Cory Procter. Miami also was awarded four players off waivers -- rookie defensive ends Clifton Geathers and Robert Rose, and offensive linemen Jermey Parnell and Joe Reitz.
The Dolphins, who were 7-9 last season, now have 20 players who are either rookies, first- or second-year players. They have 23 players who are five-year veterans or older.
Miami expects to start three rookies (defensive tackle Jared Odrick, right guard John Jerry and strongside linebacker Koa Misi) and four second-year players (cornerbacks Vontae Davis and Sean Smith, free safety Chris Clemons, and wide receiver Brian Hartline).
Allen's veteran wisdom could have helped the young secondary and during training camp rookie cornerback Nolan Carroll, a leading candidate to start at nickel defensive backs, mentioned more than once how it was comforting to be able to pick Allen's brain.
Nevertheless, Sparano feels good about the mix of experience and youth from a team that also features play-making linebacker Karlos Dansby and Pro Bowl wide receiver Brandon Marshall.
"We're trying to develop some young players and you have some of the young players you have developed in that mix and then you have a good group of veteran players," Sparano said.

This Samsung TV is our second from Walmart and are looking to purchase a third very soon. Fantastic Service, Ordered Online and Shipped to the Local Walmart. Arrived in a week just in time for the weekend. Super easy to install. When the TV cane online all the wife could say was "OMG WOW"!!!
With popcorn and the soda, you will feel like you are in the theather. Theimages are just amazing.
This tv is great and came with a great price. I don't yet know how to completely work the tv, so I don't know what all it is capable of. The only problem I had was the package in which the tv was shipped had a giant foot-print on the front of it. I didn't like the idea of somebody stepping all over my $1700 tv. However, my life was not complete without this tv.
Purchased 1 month ago and could not be happier. Avatar Blu Ray disc is beautiful on this thing! Paired this with an HW-C500 receiver and a BD-C5500 Blu Ray player. This is a great combo. The BD-C5500 has the internet@TV connection to view Netflix on demand (which is wonderful) so I didn't need to get it on the TV. Haven't performed a side-by-side with a 120hz model, so there may be a difference, but it's not something I notice or miss. Had friends over to watch a college football game (in HD) this weekend and everyone was blown away. Great TV and great value.
Best TV I've ever purchased. With Samsung Bluray player it's better than the theater. This TV replaced a 42' Samsung Plasma, so it is saying a lot to claim it is superior. We kept the plasma; it's a great TV, too.
The title says it all. The TV provides high performance--great contrast, high refresh rate, was easy to set up, and was packaged with value-added apps. So you get an eye-popping picture that is a pleasure to use.
I ran a tv repair shop for 6yrs., and what a change has been made in tv's. The quality is great, price is sure a lot better. I get the best picture i have ever seen,even with the large screen it is sharp.
This product is unbelievable. The picture quality is great and people are amazed at this tv. Two buddies liked it so much, they went out and bought the same one.
looked at alot of tv this tv had the best picture it was just like being inthe show it was playing
Overall 5 of 5. 55" Class (54.6" Diag.) 5000 Series 1080p LED HDTV (2010 model)
This product has great features great picture it hits plenty of high points,
My husband Love his TV. Best gift I brought my new husband .
Love it! It's a great TV, been very happy with it.
This television is absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend it to others.

1990: Home Alone
I was 5 years old and thought that Home Alone was the funniest thing I had ever seen. I wanted to set booby traps all over my house. I desperately wanted to be friends with Macaulay Culkin. On the other hand, I was also terrified of being left home alone and the house being burgled. This was already a deeply ingrained fear because my brother and I loved watching Unsolved Mysteries and Rescue 911, so a cheerful comedy about a kid beating two inept burglars at their own game turned a bit more sordid in my impressionable young mind. Still, my brother and I definitely spent the next month shouting, "KEEP THE CHANGE, YA FILTHY ANIMAL" to each other, much to my parents' chagrin.
1991: Hook
Ask me how many nights I spent afterward sitting in the doorway of my bedroom, wearing the floor-length nightgown I was all about, belting out "When You're Alone" like the girl in Hook. Better yet, ask my poor family.
1992: Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
Now that I live in New York City and know how much townhouses and renovations cost, I can't help but rewatch Home Alone 2 in horror as I think about the hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage and months of construction setbacks Kevin causes with his shenanigans. In conclusion, becoming an adult makes you FUN.
1993: Mrs. Doubtfire
I'm pretty sure my whole family picked up everything Robin Williams is putting down here.
1994: Little Women
This was definitely a major acquiescence on my sibling's part, because there's no way in hell my 13-year-old brother agreed to watch the film adaptation of one of my favorite books without some major coercion. Actually, my mom probably twisted his arm under the guise of the fact that he'd just had his bar mitzvah (Presents! Party! "Becoming a man!"), and I was probably feeling a little left out. I'm going to ask her if this was the guilt card she played, because I'm 100% sure it was. Whatever; I got to see Little Women.

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Earth of 2080 continues a cold war with the chilling aliens the Psy in Singh's fourth fierce installment of the Psy-Changeling series (after Caressed by Ice). Half-human, half-leopard changeling Clay Bennett is shocked when lovely Talin McKade, wracked with illness and similarly half-changeling, returns to his life, having disappeared from his childhood 20 years before. Talin works at San Francisco's Shine Foundation, dedicated to helping gifted but needy children, and a growing number of her missing charges have been turning up sans brains. There's plenty of purring passion to keeps things hot as the Leopard shape-shifters Clay and Tally fall breathlessly in love, while the Psy continue to use children as guinea pigs for developing a hive mind. While this is paranormal romance at its best, newcomers are advised to check out the earlier adventures first. (Feb.)

Clay Bennet is barely holding on. He's dangerously close to going rogue, even within the confines a loving and healthy pack - the San Francisco DarkRiver leopards. Too tangled in a tragic past, it eats at him still. The slaying of a depraved monster may have seen the streets rid of one more evil, but it cost Clay his freedom and the person he cared more about than anything. When he finds out she's dead, well, Clay no longer had a reason to be good himself.
Talin McKade vowed to stay away from the man who used to be her best friend. An act of violence, born of violence, triggered her flight and fear didn't allow her close...till violence once again brought her full circle to the one person she always wanted to count on. It's her job to see that children like she had been have a chance at a better life. And when her kids start dying, she takes a wild card from the past, hoping Clay will help her solve the mystery. Little did she know, once marked by a leopard, there's no going back.
What was interesting about Clay and Talin's relationship is how seamlessly it's integrated into the storyline in this installment.Read more ›
If you are already a fan of this series and somehow haven't managed to read "Mine to possess" yet, run to your nearest bookstore and buy it. The fourth book in the Psy-Changeling series is just as good as the previous ones, and in this case that is a lot to say.
On the other hand, if you are one of those who haven't heard about this series, and are reading this review just by chance, don't feel too badly. Truth to be told, the Psy-Changeling saga is relatively new: the first book, "Slave to sensation", was published in 2006. That story begins to acquaint the reader with a different world where three species live side by side, if not always in harmony. The Psy are a race with psychic powers and devoid of feelings; the changelings, shifters that embrace those feelings; and finally, the humans, less powerful and not always taken into account in the arithmetic of power. But what happens when a Psy killer on the loose that preys on changelings breaks the fragile equilibrium achieved by the two main races? That premise is the starting point to the story of Lucas, a powerful changeling, and Sacha, a cardinal Psy, two persons that should be enemies, but that soon realize that they can be much more.
"Slave to sensation" is also the beginning of an universe that Nalini Singh weaves even more consistently with each book, a strange world that makes sense and that ends up engaging the reader, and making him want to know what happens next.Read more ›

you are viewing a single comment's thread.
Of course the 'EPS' numbers you cite for 2003 were per quarter. Now the company, after years of immitating the Crossbow's marketing strategy, would love to make 67 cents in a year. Naturally newcomers to the company have a vested interest in 'going for broke' on new markets. Sure it probably won't work out for shareholders, but we can slap them back into line with stories about how there's no alternative, the survival of the company, etc.Management newcomers don't get much quick career credit for understanding what's really going on, they get credit for flashy viewgraphs, B-school buzzwords and 'key concepts.' As competent people quit in disgust, the kids will move up into the empty slots. That looks good on a resume, and by the time layoffs hit upper-middle management, those kids will be off to the next exciting opportunity.
astral,You make some very good points. You very well may be right, however, do you ever consider that you might just be wrong as well? Just wondering if being wrong has even entered into your equation with regard to this issue.
Sure, I could easily be wrong. In this case I'm just agreeing with the other poster, but we could both be wrong.If what you're really saying is that you're looking for more respect for your own posts, it's easy: do some research beyond the price and volume action for the day. Read the SEC filings and build some sort of a case for what you think the stock is worth.

Dim Stars, Bright Sky
by John Doe
- Record Label: Artist Direct
- Release Date: Sep 10, 2002
- Summary: Founding member of Los Angeles punkers X and occasional actor John Doe returns with his fourth solo album, this one produced by Joe Henry with guest appearances from Rhett Miller (Old 97s), Aimee Mann, Jakob Dylan and Jane Wiedlin.
- Record Label: Artist Direct
- Genre(s): Indie, Rock
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 6 out of 10
Mixed: 4 out of 10
Negative: 0 out of 10
The tunes here are full of immediately memorable, if not obvious, hooks, and the vocals capture a tenderness and vulnerability he's never before revealed.
ResonanceSeems the perfect sweet and sour soundtrack for some yet-to-be-made Paul Thomas Anderson film. [#36, p.54]
Q MagazineA marvellous, surprising comeback from a forgotten talent. [Mar 2003, p.103]
The album forsakes Doe's past rockabilily, country, and punk leanings for a fairly morose, maudlin mood.
The problem is the songs. Oh, the songs - they're pretty, all right, but there's no substance.
UncutIf Doe intended to create an interlocked set of pieces that sustained a mood of pensive reverie, he succeeded, though there's a marked shortage of ear-grabbing, individual songs. [Mar 2003, p.95]
BlenderSo low-key that even the amplified instruments sound semi-acoustic. [#10, p.116]
Score distribution:
Positive: 1 out of 2
Mixed: 1 out of 2

Perfect stay, quiet place with regular bus connection to city center.
The room was spacious, the common bathroom clean and the kitchen amenities usefull. The only drawback I found was, that there was no chair or even a stand in the room.
It was definately worth its money, and thus recommended for a short or longer stay.
My stay in liverpool was fantastic. Carmel was great and very helpful. The room is very nice and has everything you need. From Liverpool Lime Street, to Anfield, and the Pier Head, they're all just 20 minutes away on bus. In my opinion you can't beat this room at such a good price. I highly recommend staying here! Thanks Carmel!
We had a great time at Carmel's house.
She's very kind and a wonderful host. Very helpfull with tips about Liverpool.
Thanks for receiving us, Carmel!
Laura & Pablo
Our stay in Liverpool was really nice. Carmel's house is really comfy and clean and our room was lovely. It's very easy to get to the city centre and back by bus (~ 15 min) but it would probably take about an hour by foot. There are shopping facilities for groceries nearby (although breakfast is provided) and you can use the kitchen 24/7. Unfortunately we only saw Carmel for a couple of minutes, but she seemed really nice and helpful. Would stay there again.
Very friendly and helpful host, plus perfect location with easy travel options both to Liverpool centre as well as to the airport. Katerina
Everything was perfect!
Hello Carmel,
we are back to Germany! Your Bed with Breackfirst was very good! These days at your home-we will never forget.many greeting to you and Penny Lane, Klaus&Claudia
Can you please write us when the Beatles fan week is in ougust next year ,we want to come back at this time with 2 another friends and live at your rooms.
Very friendly and nice host!!! Recommend 100%
Really nice. Lovely place to stay!
Since the first time we got in touch with Carmel we thought we had made the right choice. She sent us an email with all the details about anything we could need, how to get to her place, how to buy the bus tickets, places around where to eat... that makes you feel comfortable beforehand.
Once there everything was much better than expected. Everything was perfect, very clean, comfortable, and quiet house.
Carmel is very friendly and will help you and give you some advices to anything you might need.
If I'm back to Liverpool I will definitely repeat with her.

Café society
|This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (March 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Café society was the description of the "Beautiful People" and "Bright Young Things" who gathered in fashionable cafes and restaurants in New York, Paris, and London beginning in the late 19th century. Maury Henry Biddle Paul is credited with coining the phrase "cafe society" in 1915.[1] Lucius Beebe created the term "chromium mist" for the cafe society lifestyle he chronicled in his weekly column, "This New York", for the New York Herald Tribune during the 1920s and 1930s.
They attended each other's private dinners and balls, and took holidays in exotic locations or at elegant resorts.
In the United States, café society came to the fore with the end of Prohibition in December 1933 and the rise of photo journalism, to describe the set of people who tended to do their entertaining semi-publicly, in restaurants and night clubs and who would include among them movie stars and sports celebrities. Some of the American night clubs and New York City restaurants frequented by the denizens of café society included El Morocco, the Stork Club, and the 21 Club. A complete history of New York café society was published by McFarland Publishing in 2015.[2] The book is illustrated with photographs by Jerome Zerbe.
In the late 1950s the term "Jet Set" began to take the place of "café society", but "café society" may still be used informally in some countries to describe people who habitually visit coffeehouses and give their parties in restaurants rather than at home.

Posted by ESPN.com's Bill Williamson
The Chiefs are honoring Willie Roaf this weekend.
The star tackle had a brief but stellar stay in Kansas City. He played for Kansas City from 2002-2005. The 11-time Pro Bowl player made the Pro Bowl each of his four seasons with Kansas City. Roaf retired from the NFL in 2006.
Roaf will be honored at halftime during Sunday's home game against San Diego. There will be a video presentation and Roaf is expected to address the crowd.
"Willie Roaf is arguably the finest left tackle to have ever played in the NFL," Kansas City general manager Carl Peterson said in a release by the team. "We were very fortunate to execute a trade for Willie with the New Orleans Saints. What the Chiefs received was the 'personal' protection of QB Trent Green for four years which led to four Pro Bowl appearances for Willie. At the same time, he became a member of one of the most highly-decorated offensive lines in Chiefs history.
"Throughout his professional football career, Willie conducted himself in a manner both on and off the field that has served his reputation well and is a quality one would hope all NFL players would emulate," Peterson continued. "We are delighted to pay tribute to him and hope to do so again in the future when he is welcomed into the family of greats as a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. We wish Willie and his family all the best for the future."
This is a nice honor for Roaf. The Chiefs have long had a reputation of treating their players well and this honor for a player who was in Kansas City for less than half a decade is an illustration of it. It shows a player doesn't have to be in a city for 10-plus years to be appreciated.
Meanwhile, tickets for the San Diego game and the home season finale against Miami on Dec. 21 are still available.

Schwarzenegger votes wrong. Again.
OK, so Arnold Schwarzenegger doesn't technically "vote" when he vetoes or signs legislation. But he's gotten a good share of that wrong anyway. Just count up those horrific budgets alone.
Now we see the governor got it wrong again.
We'll let the Sacramento Bee explain this faux pas:
"Fresh off a morning news conference in support of the 'top two' primary measure, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger accidentally picked two candidates for the GOP Senate nomination when he cast his own ballot at a Los Angeles polling location."
The Associated Press says: "California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger had some trouble saying 'Hasta la vista, baby' to the voting booth because of a ballot mishap in Los Angeles. Poll worker Keta Hodgson says a scanning machine rejected Schwarzenegger's first ballot Tuesday because he selected two Senate candidates, instead of one."
They gave the guv a do-over. Speaking of do-overs, remember when he was elected?

"Camden County, Georgia" Kingsland by HSC123
Kingsland Travel Guide: 4 reviews and 6 photos
Introducing Camden County
Camden County is located in the far southeastern corner of Georgia, with the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the state of Florida to the south. It is bisected by Interstate 95, a busy six-lane highway that funnels hordes of sun-seeking tourists to and from the vacationlands farther south. In addition, its location about 35 miles north of Downtown Jacksonville makes it easy for the more than 50,000 residents who live in Camden County to benefit from that city's employment, recreational, and regional amenities. While the government seat is Woodbine, a tiny town off the beaten path in the northern part of the county, the larger towns of St. Marys and Kingsland, in the southern part of the county, share most of the population. Camden County's entire coastline consists of Cumberland Island National Seashore.
St. Marys & Kingsland
St. Marys (pop. 17,700+) and neighboring Kingsland (pop. about 16,000) are old Southern towns with quiet neighborhoods and old-fashioned ?Main Street? downtowns that are experiencing growth spurts. Both would probably have remained unassuming quiet towns if it were not for the fact that they straddle a very strategic location, sitting not only across the border from Florida but also within close proximity to Interstate 95. The towns themselves are linked together by a commercial highway that sports roadside accommodations, restaurants, and service stations, with some in Kingsland doubling as Georgia ?welcome centers? offering maps, trinket souvenirs, and ?cheap? gas. Though the smaller of the two in population, Kingsland is actually bisected by the busy interstate and thus sports the characteristic highway commercialism that drivers see when passing through the area. St. Marys, situated a few miles east of I-95, is the home of the Kings Bay Nuclear Submarine Base. St. Marys? primary tourism draw is a historic waterfront downtown along the St. Marys River that not only offers views of Florida across its harbor, but also serves as the mainland departure point for the St. Marys-Cumberland Ferry service to Cumberland Island National Seashore.
Cumberland Island National Seashore
Cumberland Island is the largest of Georgia?s sea islands in terms of land area, but it is maintained by the National Park Service, which regulates how many visitors are allowed to set foot on the island each day. Most of these visitors arrive via the ferry since there are no bridges that link Cumberland to the mainland. Cumberland Island?s claim to fame is its population of wild horses that roam freely on the island?s beaches, woodlands, and ruins. In terms of human development, there are very few structures on the island, except for those dating back to the time when the entire island was privately owned by steel magnate Andrew Carnegie and his family. The ruins of Carnegie?s Dungeness mansion still stand on the island, though most of it burned down decades ago.
Cumberland Island?s well-regulated status ensures that it remains a protected area for many species of flora and fauna. On the flip side, the island?s limited accessibility means that locals and visitors seeking the closest traditional (and easily accessible) beach experiences have to either drive south to Amelia Island, Florida, or north to Georgia?s Golden Isles. While I have not actually set foot on Cumberland Island myself, I have seen it, several of its feral horses, and a view of the Dungeness ruins from the Intracoastal Waterway as part of a sightseeing cruise offered by Amelia River Cruises. Amelia River Cruises operates sightseeing boat excursions out of Amelia Island, Florida, which is located across the inlet from Cumberland Island?s southern tip.
Beyond Camden County
Destinations within an hour's drive of Camden County include Jacksonville, Amelia Island, and Georgia's Golden Isles.

With recent public hearings on national Common Core education standards by Wisconsin lawmakers in October, another element of the national battle is becoming increasingly obvious: This has become a fight largely between concerned citizens and parents on one side, with Big Business, Big Government, and a cadre of establishment billionaires like Bill Gates on the other. This week, efforts of pro-Common Core forces to demonize the grassroots opposition — which transcends the traditional political spectrum — reached the point of absurdity. Citizens and even lawmakers, though, are now hitting back at bizarre and inaccurate allegations made in an apparent effort to dismiss public concerns about the nationalized standards.
Alongside the highly controversial nationalization of education via the Obama administration-backed "Common Core," the federal government is bribing and bullying state governments into collecting huge amounts of private data on students for use by the U.S. Department of Education and other bureaucracies. Despite establishment efforts to downplay the links, the outrage surrounding both schemes — removing local control of schooling through dubious national standards and vacuuming up information on America's children — continues to grow nationwide.
In a brief video on the Obama administration-pushed nationalization of education through Common Core standards, part of an ongoing series about the scheme produced by The New American, veteran educator Mary Black highlights yet another troubling element of the national educational agenda. Considering the teaching styles and the standards themselves, she explained, Common Core could lead to potentially disastrous effects for future generations of Americans and the nation itself.
With nationwide outrage escalating quickly over the Obama-backed nationalization of education through "Common Core" standards, Manchester, the largest school district in New Hampshire, voted last week to move beyond the national scheme and create its own set of superior standards. Under intense public pressure to reject the establishment's controversial program entirely, the school board refused to adopt Common Core and the curriculum aligned with it. Instead, however, they voted to create "The Manchester Academic Standards" (TMAS) — using the national standards as a supposed "floor." Both sides are claiming victory, but the battle is far from finished.
With the national uproar over the Obama administration-backed "Common Core" nationalization of education reaching a fever pitch from Florida and Louisiana to New Hampshire and Wisconsin, education expert Dr. Duke Pesta is now speaking out in an exclusive video for The New American about the looming nationwide school standards for history, science, and sexuality.

Orcs & Elves DS
- Publisher: Electronic Arts
- Release Date: Nov 13, 2007
- Also On: Mobile
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
n-Revolution Magazine UKA superb blend of dungeon exploration and turn-based battle. It feels old-fashioned, but in a good way. [Issue#18, p.83]
If you're a fan of old school, simple role-playing and haven't had the pleasure of playing the mobile version, then Orcs & Elves is a grand diversion that won't leave you feeling like someone stole $30 from your wallet.
It is my sincere wish that the backstory gets fleshed out a bit more; we know very little about the wand and the reasons that the evil has attacked the dwarves, much less the unanswered questions revolving around Gaya. For a port of a mobile phone game, Orcs and Elves is a good title indeed.
It's a Doom RPG from cell phones with a fantasy theme ported to the DS. Odd? Sure, but it's a good, unique dungeon crawler that's surprisingly addictive in spite of its somewhat simplistic nature. If you're a fan of the genre (or simply curious), it's certainly worth your while to try it out.
There is no doubt that fans of id Software are probably going to be a bit disappointed with the fact that there really wasn't anything that stands out about this game. However fans of the older RPG's are going to sit back and really enjoy this game, not only for its old school mechanics but also its overall experience.
Although dungeon crawlers can be irksome, the save function is a saving grace with Orcs & Elves as it makes playing the game much more fun.
Its story makes us sleepy, but the hack-and-slash fighting has us hooked. Highly recommended.
Happily, the gameplay avoids the trap of many dungeon-set games, which is that combat becomes repetitive and not very challenging.
It doesn't really add a great deal to the original mobile phone release but Orcs & Elves DS remains an extremely polished and playable adventure that is well worth splashing your Dwarven gold on.
The dungeons are well-designed, the action is well-balanced and fun, and even the characters are likeable. This is a must-have for any action-RPG fan or anyone looking for something different on the DS.
Even with its limitations, Orcs & Elves' fast-paced, turn-based style is a refreshing change of pace from the evolved role-playing game design, and deserves a playthrough even if you love the epic presentation of those other RPGs.
One of the biggest surprises in Orcs and Elves is the clever game design, which keeps the game engaging and fresh.
If anything, Orcs and Elves will remind you of the old school classic PC RPGs like Lands of Lore and Eye of the Beholder--which is to say that there's not a lot of originality here. But given the restrictions, id's first DS game is a success.
Pelit (Finland)Suffers from the maddenigly generic fantasy setting and the redundancy of some features, but comes through with addictive dungeon scavenging and suitable gameplay for a portable device. [Jan 2008]
If you're looking for some fun role-playing light gameplay, then Orcs & Elves is for you.
I remember feeling concerned that the game was flying by way too fast, and it wasn't until I actually looked down at the total time played that it hit me that this thing isn't short: I was just enjoying it so much that I didn't notice.
The problem with the DS incarnation of Orcs & Elves is that it doesn't give enough incentive to buy it over, say, a $5 download for your cell phone.

It lacks certain elements, but Ive found this game (I for one found it unused at afans of DOOM or older RPGs will definately enjoy this. It lacks certain elements, but Ive found this game (I for one found it unused at a gamestop for $10) to be more enjoyable than some of the more expensive games out there. The game is simple but I found it enjoyable even if it is shorter than most. I wouldnt recommend it for the gamer who needs amazing graphics or indepth character and plot. Overall a good quality game to pass by some free time.… Full Review »
JonasS.Jan 29, 2008Oh man its great to see this kind of games on the DS! If you have played and enjoyed Eye of Beholder or Lands of Lore you will love this one!
TimS.Dec 28, 2007Albeit short, this game was far more fun then people seem to be giving it credit for. Kudos to Carmack and co. for making a great hack-n-slash RPG.

Goodbye, Krystal Klei – ABC7 Meteorologist Leaving El Paso
Krystal Klei has done her last weather forecast for Mike and Tricia Mornings.
Krystal Klei has done her last weather forecast for Mike and Tricia Mornings.
The Las Cruces firefighter we first told you about last week has been disciplined over a photo of his wife breastfeeding while wearing his uniform.
Oh my, was that ABC-7 at Noon anchor Denise Olivas dropping the F-bomb on live TV?
We all make mistakes, but news anchors make mistakes live on-air. NewsBeFunny has compiled a blooper reel featuring the best mistakes by local news anchors, of August 2014. Surprisingly, a local anchor for KVIA is spotted in the video!
Two years after facing tumor surgery that could have made having children nearly impossible, KVIA anchor/reporter Maria Garcia is a brand new mom.
Paul Cicala used to be a sports reporter here in El Paso. He worked at KVIA for a couple of years, and is still well known around town. He loves El Paso and comes back often for events, but he ran into some trouble while covering a story a couple of days ago, and now, he'll live forever in Youtube infamy for tripping and falling on live tv...
For a city that has more than 302 days of sunshine on average each year, we sure do have a ton of meteorologist. Some are a little crazy, like NewsChannel 9's Mark Mathis, some are all business, like KFOX's Sandra Diaz and everyone has their favorite. Cast your vote below for your favorite El Paso meteorologist.
Every Monday morning, I write a blog post called 'Military Mondays'. We started this post so friends and families of troops stationed at Fort Bliss could tell us all about their loved one who is serving in the military. Today, I'm going to be on the ABC 7 'Noon Show' to talk about Military Mondays.
Mike and Tricia Morning's is kicking butt and taking names, baby! First, Mike got a tweet from Lee Brice, this year's Sun Bowl halftime entertainer, confirming his appearance at the game waaaay before the "official announcement". And, Friday morning, we'll hear from the First Lady of El Paso News, Estela Casas, about a rude remark Mario Lopez said at a weekend fundraiser! Take THAT, TMZ!
Last night on Conan, Will Farrell announced the return of Ron Burgundy, the highlarious anchorman from the movie 'Anchorman'. If he's going to gear up for another go-round as R.B., he better brush up on our famous local ex-anchorman who rocked the Ron Burgundy 'stache first!
El Paso County Commissioner "Willie" Gandara Jr. will resign his seat on Commissioners Court today. His lawyer, Joe Spencer, said he will also withdraw from the State Representative District 75 race. Gandara Jr. was in court this morning on federal drug charges after he was arrested last week.
GREAT MOMENTS IN EL PASO BROADCASTING:Estela Casas and Rick Cabrera were caught horsing around late last week while recording a promo during a "Nightline" commercial break. The two veteran newscasters were apparently unaware someone in the master control room had pressed the wrong switch.
