Success Stories from ActualTests CCNA customers
My virtual bootcampAs per the advice of my friend I couldn't pass CCNA without attending a CCNA boot camp. My fiancé had passed CCNA with the help of material from Actualtests and didn't need any CCNA bootcamp. I also decided to take this way and ordered my material from Actualtests. The material helped me clear my concepts about some complex scenarios of the exam and helped me pass the exam without any problems. Turns out, the Actualtests material is an all in one package.
Rachel Aaron
Nothing else, just ActualtestsI used to change the sources for my training materials often as I couldn't find one reliable training material source. Sometimes I was able to pass and sometimes not and then I would move to the next vendor to buy the material again. One day searching on forums, I found that Actualtests users didn't need any Cisco CCNA boot camp and it seemed strange. All the people I have known have used a CCNA boot camp to pass CCNA. I gave it a try in my CCNA exam and prepared just from the material of Actualtests and I was able to pass easily after preparing by sitting at home. I won't change anymore vendors.
Momal Aaryan
I will buy from Actualtests foreverI am an IT professional and often need training materials for different certifications I want to pursue. I have changed different vendors in the past because of not getting quality at a single place. However, for my CCNA exam, I tried Actualtests randomly and when I checked the material I realized that I didn't need any CCNA bootcamp as the material had everything in it. The feature virtual exam actually made me feel at a real test environment and what's better than testing your skills in a real exam. I dropped the plan of attending the Cisco CCNA boot camp as I knew I would pass with this material only. I got a 97% score and won't buy from anyone else now.
Robin Abid
I have already recommended it to everyoneI had tried previously by attending a CCNA bootcamp and not preparing with any other material and couldn't pass. My friend told suggested me that maybe I needed something more than just the CCNA boot camp, like training material with which I can practice and clear my concepts when I am at home. I bought this material from Actualtests with the Q&A and realized that I didn't need a boot camp anymore because this material was a complete package. It described in detail the lab questions and all other questions and didn't leave a single sub topic unattended. I prepared from this material only and got a 96% is my exam. I have told everybody to prepare just with Actualtests' material.
Marta Abe
Rock it, Actualtests!My job was a total dead end job with no chances of improvements, my colleague asked me to attend Cisco CCNA boot camp and then go for CCNA exam to make a better future. So I was in search of CCNA boot camp when I found out that there were better options available like Actualtests. The material from Actualtests contained everything in it and I really didn't need to attend a boot camp. I went for the exam and it was easy like anything. Actualtests really rocks and it is the ultimate resource for any IT certification material.

Critic Reviews for Red Obsession
All Critics (21) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (18) | Rotten (3)
Despite being a rather thin, by-the-books documentary that abruptly changes course at the halfway mark, Red Obsession tells a fascinating financial tale about the rise of "wine fever" in China.
"Red Obsession" gains interest as it delineates how the production and sale of first-growth Bordeaux has become the biggest of businesses and how the Chinese may or may not fit into the picture.
A film about obsession, about wine-mania, about people who live, breathe, eat, think, drink wine.
The movie raises legitimate concerns about the cultural and economic implications of status-minded overconsumption.
A concise portrait of not only the historic Bordeaux region of France, but also of the way its business has been impacted-for good and ill-by China's emergence as a superpower.
Audience Reviews for Red Obsession
Netflix 5/10/14 Started slowly but turned into a really interesting story not only about wine but about Chinese culture, economics and global influence/implications. Right now average wine consumption for Chinese citizens is 1 bottle per person versus 34 for France and US. If China approaches those numbers they will consume all the wine in the world.
If you're like me and cant tell the difference between a Pinot Noir from a Merlot yous could still find some interesting tidbits about how wine has becomes China's latest status symbol
An enlightening documentary that can be really absorbing, showing us the art involved in winemaking and how wine has been turning into an economic investment due to its always increasing demand - especially from China - leading to an unprecedented impact on the market.

"When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper which should have been gold, are a token of honor -- your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money." ~ Ayn Rand

After Stanford kicker Jordan Williamson missed a 35-yard field goal at the end of regulation that would have won the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, and a 43-yarder in overtime that allowed Oklahoma State to win 41-38, he reacted in a way that any teammate who felt as if he let down his teammates would react.
Williamson took the weight of the loss on his 170-pound shoulders. And if you've ever seen a kicker in a weight room, you know the result. He crumpled beneath it.
Williamson sobbed in a corner of the Cardinal locker room. And then he sobbed some more. Williamson had made 12 of 15 field goals during the regular season, 10 of 11 inside 40 yards. He missed three of four against Oklahoma State. Any kicker who has steeped himself in his art knows the pitfalls of it. But to experience what Williamson endured last week is the difference between reading about the power of Manny Pacquiao's fists and getting in the ring with him.
Only one person in the world had the license to feel worse than Williamson. If there is an agony greater than that felt by a kicker who missed the game-deciding field goal, it belongs to his mother. Laura Burton could do nothing but watch, ache, and when her son returned home to Austin, Texas, try to lift his spirits.
It turns out she didn't have to. His teammates did that for him.
No one in the Cardinal locker room pointed a finger at Williamson. His teammates shielded him from the media after the game. They patted him on the butt, tapped him on the helmet, hugged him and encouraged him. They emailed and texted and called. The Internet and Twitter cornered the market on vitriol. Williamson didn't have to draw from those poisoned wells.
Laura Burton watched the effect the members of the Stanford team had on her son. Over the course of three days, she saw Jordan sink and she saw him rise anew, buoyed by the concern and, yes, the love of his teammates. At the end of the week, she sat down and wrote an email to the parents of the other Stanford players.
First of all, let me express my utter sorrow for how things played out the other night. All of your families were affected, and despite the sincere and tenacious deflection of blame that the players have insisted did not fall on any one player, Jordan would give anything in the world to have contributed positively to the outcome of that game. He takes his job very seriously, and by far the biggest disappointment he has felt over the last few days has been that of letting down his teammates.
"It was sort of an awkward situation," Burton said on the phone Wednesday night. "It was unfamiliar territory for us as a family. People said, 'You didn't need to apologize to us.' It was not the intent for it to feel like an apology. When he missed the kick, we knew it was going to be a life-changing experience. In many ways, it became life-changing for the better."
The main thing I wanted to communicate to you all is that, while our family has learned many powerful life lessons over the last few days, one key message that has come clear like no other is 'WE ARE IN A SPECIAL PLACE.' Never in my life have I seen the kindness, maturity, and love that has been displayed by this Stanford family, and in particular your AMAZING boys. As you can imagine, Jordan felt he wanted to dig a hole and hide, and watching the players seek him out to give bear hugs and encouragement, despite their own disappointment, has touched us and warmed our hearts beyond believe (sic). So many times he has shaken his head and said to me, 'People are just so nice. I just can't believe it.'
The outpouring of support, Burton said, "renewed our faith in the human spirit. ... It's been such an unexpected surprise." As is the reaction she has received to the email, which has begun to go viral in the Stanford community.
He is looking forward to getting back out there. He knows what he is capable of. He feels strongly he'll have a great year.
"-- Laura Burton on her son Jordan Williamson
Now, more than ever, Jordan knows that he is among friends and he feels motivated to work hard, humble himself, and never EVER let them down again. Of course there will be missed field goals and bad days along the way, but his commitment to this team has drilled through to his core. With each day that passes I see less despair in his eyes, and instead an understanding that things happen for a reason, and a determination to learn what he can from it and prepare even harder to do his part in 2012.
In the locker room after the game, Stanford coach David Shaw defended Williamson, said the experience would strengthen him and predicted that someday he would kick in the NFL. The day after the game, he called Williamson to check on him. Asked about Burton's email Wednesday, Shaw confirmed that he had read it. However, he declined to comment.
Williamson did not respond to an email Wednesday night.
To the seniors who won't be here with us, I can't thank you enough. The love and leadership displayed by those boys has been beyond compare. We are thankful to be in a community of special champions, both on and off the field, who understand that life is about higher level things than one football game, and that despite wishing things had played out differently, they are a family and a team that will go to great lengths to not let any one player fall. It has been a beautiful thing to observe and has touched our hearts beyond words. I wanted to say thank you to all of you for raising such an amazing group of boys.
Two months ago, Jeremy Shelley and Cade Foster of Alabama combined to miss four field goals in the Crimson Tide's 9-6 overtime loss at home to LSU. Foster is from Southlake, Texas, and he and Williamson are friends. On Monday night, Shelley made five field goals in Alabama's 21-0 victory over LSU in the BCS title game. Williamson, who was traveling back to Stanford on Monday night, didn't see the game. His mother updated him via text, and he reveled in Shelley's achievement.
"The good news is he's got three more years," Laura Burton said of her son. "He is looking forward to getting back out there. He knows what he is capable of. He feels strongly he'll have a great year."

How much private cloud do you really need? A private cloud is all about the IT department getting out of the way of its internal customers, enabling business units and individual developers to provision their own VMs and get on with doing their jobs. But building and operating a private cloud is a complex, and therefore expensive, task. There needs to be a large payoff before there is a real business benefit. Some businesses don't really need a private cloud platform. Often, their business processes will prevent real self-service on their private cloud. For these organizations, there may be simpler ways to achieve their desired business outcomes.
IT as a Service
IT as a Service (ITaaS) covers private clouds, hybrid clouds, and on-premises clouds, as well as cloud management, including performance management offerings used to create and manage these entities. Consider this IT consumption as a utility. (Read More)
This topic explores Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) private and hybrid cloud offerings, Platform as a Service (PaaS) private and hybrid cloud offerings, and Software as a Service (SaaS). It also investigates emerging areas such as Desktop as a Service (DaaS), Storage as a Service, and Applications as a Service.
The key areas covered include enterprise applications and use cases that are appropriate for private and hybrid clouds, and how consumers and vendors should select cloud management offerings they will use to manage the various types of cloud services and the journey to the cloud: from A to Z and all points between.
Inventing Complexity
Recently, a number of marketing campaigns have seemed to be inventing complexity to try to give products the appearance of having some sort of competitive advantage. The invented complexity involves real-world items that many folks just do not use, or even care about, in order to make products look like something different. We have spoken about in-kernel vs. VSA in the past, but now we are seeing invented complexity within the mainstream storage world.
Container as a Service?
Every day, IT professionals live and breathe applications, yet our focus for operational tools is a single container, virtual machine, database, etc. How do these items map to the application in use? Even the monolithic-looking applications of yesterday were actually made up of services. Those services will be reborn as microservices within the applications of tomorrow. How do we make this transition? Is it possible with a container as a service model? Or should we scratch the past and start over?
Microsoft — The Renaissance Continues
Microsoft's turnaround over the two years since Satya Nadella became CEO has been nothing short of phenomenal. During the Ballmer years, Microsoft had become increasingly sidelined and irrelevant, focused on aggressive and negative marketing techniques. Anybody remember the painful Microsoft Mythbusters video featuring then–Microsoft executive David Greschler and Hyper-V product manager Edwin Yuen? Not that you can find it anymore; all references I have located now link to the Microsoft store (even Microsoft is too embarrassed).
Getting to Green: Monitoring Your Cloud
Recently, we upgraded our cloud environment. This raises the question, "What is wrong with the environment after an upgrade?" As tools improve, we get new warnings, messages, and analytics. This often leads to a decision to ensure that after the upgrade, all monitoring, alerts, and other diagnostics show green across the board. Is this required, desirable, and even warranted? Wouldn't it make sense to understand a change between releases first, before blanket acceptance?
In Cloud, Cost Is Everything
The use of the cloud is not governed by technology so much as it is governed by cost: the cost of on-premises management, support, expertise, and environment vs. the cost of cloud services and outsourced expertise, management, etc. The cost differential must be high enough in the short term to allow it to become valid in the long term. There are lots of cloud calculators out there. Since Apple, Dropbox, and others have changed clouds or moved to their own data centers, what does this tell us about the future of cloud?

A Stalker From Hell
May Northcott is a woman at the end of her rope. She'd almost gotten used to her employer, the ex-demon lord Magoth, spending his days hanging around her home and interrupting her private moments with her lover, Gabriel. Then trouble appears on her doorstep in the form of a nearly dead man.
With May fighting to control the dragon shard, Magoth wrangling to regain his position and powers, and a mysterious and deadly dragon bent on their destruction, Gabriel has his work cut out for him. Now he'll have to claw his way through all the distractions and convince May that their love is strong enough to conquer all enemies.

Fans will enjoy visiting the chaotic charming world of Ms. MacAlister where the unbelievable becomes believable.----------- Harriet Klausner
i've been in love with kaite's dragons series. I started reading the aisling grey series back in 2008. since then ive been all about katie mcalister's dragon series. i love all the characters each with their different personality. its a series i can never put down and never want the story to end. its quite remarkable how katie built this world of dragons and septs with all the history behind it. im excited to start reading the light dragon series!!! and cant wait for katie to write the next dragon series!! keep writing katie cause im not going to stop reading :)
i have read all of katie macalister's vampire books and was hoping that she would continue the same type of book with the dragon books, what a disappointment. i read the whole series just because i needed to know what happens, but as soon as i was finished, i took the series to the local book swap.
Katie has allowed us to continue our visit with the Dragon septs and has kept things hot and exciting. No one beats her sense of humor and ability to draw you into the story and world so fully. So thrilled to get more Jim (you should know who he is by now) and he gets extra belly rubs for his continued awesomeness... Indeed with out spoiling I would say Magoth deserves some too, however, I am not volunteering to administer them. :D I am so very much looking forward to the new Dragon series. This is why I continue to be Katie's loyal Minion!
I love all the books in the Dragon series, but Gabriel and May's story is one of my favorites.
What a great book to the Silver Dragon series. I loved every minute of this one. Gaberial and May make you want to believe in true love and happily ever after.
Had a hard time putting the book down

Stemedica Asia PTE and PT Kalbe Farma's Stem Cell and Cancer Institute have entered into an agreement through which the latter firm will be the exclusive licensor of the former's ischemic-tolerant adult allogeneic mesenchymal and neural stem cells to be used in clinical trials conducted in Indonesia, Philippines, and Thailand.
Through this licensing agreement, Kalbe has first rights of refusal for additional countries including Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar. In addition, Kalbe's Stem Cell and Cancer Institute will be responsible for organizing and funding clinical trials in Southeast Asia, Stemedica said. Financial details of the agreement were not disclosed.
"We have chosen to license Stemedica products based upon the quality of their cGMP manufacturing and the unique attributes of their ischemia-tolerant stem cells," Kalbe's Boenjamin Setiawan said in a statement. "Their ability to scale production to treat hundreds of thousands of patients from a single tissue donation is in keeping with our objective as a pharmaceutical company: to bring a safe, effective, off-the-shelf solution to millions of people in Southeast Asia suffering from disease."

I am projecting that the US govt is near insolvent and that we will be facing a new Bretton Woods currency agreement bringing gold back into the monetary system in combination with a sudden fiat currency devaluation (across the board-most currencies) against gold over a long weekend or an outright sovereign debt panic by 2020-2025. The least expected outcome double digit inflation is very likely sometime in the future. The Fed PRO-POVERTY policies are going to crush the poor, fixed pensioners and lower middle class since disposable income growth is limited. Beware middle class and retirees your purchasing power will drop dramatically when everyday necessities absorb a larger % of your income. To spread the word to the brainwashed American drones that this economy is one big illusion ponzi scheme and you are infact broke. Issuing more debt to solve a debt problem is crazy.

Glory of Forgetfuleles: Glory of Heracles and the Amnesiac Hero
Can a worn out RPG cliche be made interesting again?
By Philip Armstrong Mar 21, 2010 7:02AM PSTTags: Nintendo DS The Glory of Heracles (NintendoDS)
Back in 2000 when the first RPGMaker was released for the Playstation I used to browse the GameFAQs boards and read the story ideas players were preposing for their RPGs. Without fail nearly every plot synopsis would start with either the hero's hometown destroyed by the big bad empire or with the hero waking with no memory of who he was. These cliches are so ingrained into the fabric of what JRPGs are it was like the players felt that not including them was blasphemy. This wasn't really the case, these players were just lazy writers who used old cliches because they were easy. Both the destroyed hometown and amnesic hero are cliches in the truest sense of the world, easy shortcuts for ideas that have become so familiar and expected that they've lost the power to interest.
Consider amnesia, which usually pops up to allow for easy exposition ("of course with your memory loss you wouldn't remember how magic works, let me explain it to you") or for a third act twist revealing the true nature of the amnesiac's identity ("I'm not really the great hero at all, I'm really a tomato magicked into thinking I was!"). We players of JRPGs have seen this so many times that anytime a character has amnesia we assume they're not who they think they are. What a surprise it is then when Glory of Heracles, the most traditional RPG released this year, uses our assumptions against us to make the amnesiac character interesting again.
The game opens with our hero, Three Question Marks, waking up on a beach with no memory of who he is. He soon discovers that he is immortal after a fall off of a high cliff fails to kill him. It's a little silly that the game keeps up the pretense that Three Question Marks isn't Heracles. He's the main character, has super strength and immortality, and his picture is right there on the front of the box. We assume that the game will reveal the "big surprise" soon enough and we can get back to punching medusas or whatever.
However, Three Question Marks begins to meet up with other characters who are inexplicably immortal and have also lost their memory. We begin to realize things are more complicated than we have first guessed. Our assumptions are destroyed when we meet up with another immortal claiming to be Heracles who is far stronger and looks the part better than our nameless hero ever did.
The game has gone from a cliched affair where we just know that our unnamed hero is the title character to something much more interesting. The central theme of identity and memory loss is so pervasive that all of the main playable characters have amnesia and there are no less than four immortals wandering around claiming to be the son of Zeus.
By embracing amnesia so throughly Glory of Heracles has transformed it into something viable and interesting again. It subverts our own easy expectations and the question of who these people really are becomes the driving motivation to play. It's a progressive little trick for a game that in many ways hues so close to the (if you'll excuse my overuse of the word) cliched idea of what a JRPG is.
Ultimately, Glory of Heracles doesn't do anything new with the idea of amnesia or say anything particularly profound about the nature of identity. But it doesn't need to. It tells a compelling story and that's more than enough to make the game worthwhile. That it does it with one of the oldest and overused JRPG tropes is an achievement worthy of Heracles himself.

Wait...Posted: Mar 21, 2010 12:00AM PST by Kerro
When I first read about the story to this game I read about the amnesia and was turned off. But if the story progresses that way it might be interesting to pick up sometime later.
Too bad you said it still doesn't do anything new. I've been holding off on buying JRPGs because of issues I have with storytelling.
I ran into a similar situation with Star Ocean 4. There was a part in the beginning when the main character made a decision that really affected him in a way I had never seen a JRPG go (except maybe FF4). Unfortunately, that plotline was soon dropped because all the character did was mope about it until a new event happed in the game.
There was a JRPG released in May 2009 for PSP called Crimson Gem Saga that I enjoyed. It needed some work in the battle system, but the overall story was less cliche than the typical JPRG, and it helped me enjoy the game more.

sounds hilarious, a game that pokes fun at the whole Amnesiac concept. Altho I don't think I'll pick this game up (too many higher priority releases as of late), it does sound pretty interesting.
Let's just hope the protagonist isn't actually a magicked tomato. :p

look absolutely horrible, even for DS.
Solid game but had to put it down...Posted: Mar 21, 2010 12:00AM PST by AgitatorAcadamia
Heracles' localization was great and there are interesting characters in the game. I do want to finish the game. I put in a good 10-12 hours with the game and had to put it down. I felt bogged down by the dungeon crawl and slightly stereotypical JRPG combat. Things had just crawled to a slog where I was at. There appears to be a lot going on with the combat in the game but I found that Auto will take care of all but the bosses or the more challenging random battles.
I know it's a remake of an old NES title, and yes it does something great with the amnesiatic protagonist, but it doesn't do much of anything else new mechanically with the genre.
With the marketing N put behind the game I'm actually surprised to see how little enthusiast press coverage the game's received. Too many DS RPGs, so little time I suppose.

i happen to enjoy the use of stylus to boost skills and spells - makes one feel like they actually have a hand the actual combat...muff up your boost and your spell fizzles out like a turd in the toilet. while it doesnt do anything new, the game really is interesting to play at least.

Fuzzy MemoriesPosted: Mar 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by rhombus
Amnesia catches alot of flack for being an overused trope in RPGs, but as with any other narrative device, it's really all about the writing and the execution. Done well and you'll really enjoy the mystery, sense of discovery, and the payoff of a world-shattering plot twist. Done poorly and you'll groan through awkward dialogue where no one asks the right questions or where the exposition is cranked up to 11, making the entire first half of a game feel like a neverending tutorial. I personally have no problem with the amnesiac hero, it's a somewhat transparent but still effective way of helping you the player identify with a character—you both experience the newness of the world at the same time—without creating an essentially personality-less cipher (like a silent protagonist or the like).
It's also not a "cliche" limited to JRPGs, as I can think of several Western RPGs which use variations on classic amnesia storylines, and to pretty good effect as well. Planescape Torment is the game that defines the very concept of the amnesiac protagonist, The Witcher, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., and the KotOR games feature prominent memory-challenged heroes, and even more recent characters such as Dragon Age's Shale touch on the subject of amnesia and identity.
It's hardly limited to RPGs either, as games like Bioshock, the Tenchu series, Metal Gear Solid series, Indigo Prophecy, hell, even Prototype and Infamous, all deal with notions of memory, perspective, and identity in different ways and in ways different from the standard JRPG treatment. It seems like comparing games to movies is all the rage these days, and if Hollywood can come up with new takes on memory with movies like Memento and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, surely there's still plenty left in the amnesia well for games to draw from. Sure, some games handle the subject more effectively than others (and I'm not about to say which ones, that's a whole other topic) but despite the occasional overuse of the trope there are still plenty of compelling stories to be told... or maybe the good stories have all been told and I just forgot them. Can't remember...
Enjoyed itPosted: Mar 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by beanburritos
Glory is a fun game. It has a very old-school feel to it, and that's something we hasven't had for a good long time. The only other game with that sort of feel that I was able to play (that wasn't a remake!) was Crimson Gem Saga. Someone else mentioned it, but I want to reinforce the point that it's a JRPG worth playing. The party setup and combat feels like a good old fashioned AD&D 1 or 2e romp, the story is a bit better than your typical JRPG fare, and overall it kept me playing from start to finish.

It also helps that the game has its tongue firmly in cheek with the script. The game would loose a lot if it was a strictly serious affair.

Still Missing SomethingPosted: Mar 22, 2010 12:00AM PST by bdogthehog
I am about 2/3 of the way through the game and am pretty bummed to see a lack of actual Greek Mythology influence. It is almost lazy of the to choose the Greek them because they didn't have to think up names/abilities/purposes of gods in the game nor did they have to think up new town names or anything. Moreover, they did not expend any effort to actually really incorporate any greek mythological stories into the game. Fun to play but again I was hoping for more mythology.

Four immortal characters that later discover their identities while battling a greater evil.... This sounds oddly familiar.

No, possessing guards does not directly increase chaos, as long as the guard survives.

Greenland's Melt Will Be Unstoppable by 2040, Berlingske Says
The melting of Greenland's icebergs will be irreversible by 2040 at the latest, Berlingske Tidende said, citing a report based on data compiled by Denmark's Meteorological Institute.
The report's findings are "alarming" and show that the "melt can go at a much faster pace than one would normally imagine," said Jens Hesselbjerg Christensen, one of the report's authors, in an interview with the Copenhagen-based newspaper.
The melt will prevent Greenland's icebergs from reforming over a period that may stretch thousands of years into the future, Berlingske said, citing the report.

The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Alexandria saturday was another major success. large crowds turned out not only to participate, but to cheer on friends who were taking part in the race. survivors ranged from one who had been cancer free to another who was on day 80. crowds were somewhat smaller this year due to the fact the alexandria event is now a local rather than a regional race, as is has been in the past. Seventy-five percent of the money raised stays local to be granted out through non-profit organizations. Twenty-five percent goes to research.
Unemployment in Louisiana fell to 7% in September, according to federal Labor Department numbers. That's down from 7.4% in August and lower than it was one year ago. LSU economist Dr. Loren Scott says he believes upturns in the chemicals and oil & gas industries are largely behind the surge.
Sundrop Fuels Inc. has hired some plant managers and has started preliminary site work north of Alexandria, where construction on the company's $450 million synthetic gasoline plant is to begin early next year with completion in 2014. The Colorado company, which chose Central Louisiana for its first commercial plant, continues financing negotiations with lenders. The company, plans to use natural gas and woody biomass to produce car-ready synthetic gasoline.
We know the New Orleans Times Picayune is now only delivering three days a week, but now Newsweek magazine has announced it will stop printing all together in order to concentrate on online publication. Is print becoming a thing of the past? LSU Mass Comm Dean Jerry Ceppos he isn't at all surprised by the Newsweek move. Ceppos says, though it depends on the situation, but using paper journalism as a legitimate news source is essentially dead. in big and struggling markets like New Orleans, scaling back daily delivery is what makes the most economic sense. However he says smaller market newspapers are still steady on their feet.
Ten years ago today, former Governor Edwin Edwards woke up to his first full day as a federal prisoner, after his conviction for conspiring to fix casino licenses. U.L.-Lafayette political science professor Pearson Cross says a decade ago, it must have seemed like rock-bottom for Edwards...but things have dramatically changed for him. While in federal prison Edwards met Trina Scott, who is some 50 years younger than he. The two were married in 2011, and are planning to have a child. Cross says Edwards has found happiness in his senior years. Edwards served 8 & 1/2 years of his ten-year sentence, and was released in early 2011, with time off for good behavior.

Sebastian Copeland and Keith Heger set off an expedition to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of Perry and Henson's treck to the North Pole and in the process teach us about the importance of polar ice caps.
The images are stunning and the message is unmistakably clear; The polar ice caps are melting at an alarming rate and if we don't change the way we pollute our environments, our future generations are going to have a really tough time.
The photography makes a lasting impression, at times you actually feel that you are right there with them in the most inhospitable place on earth.
Mr. Copeland should be applauded for caring so much about the world that he is willing to risk his life to bring this message to the everyone.
I encourage everybody to see this film. It is visually amazing and covers a desperately important subject-matter.
As for the filming, no movie set could ever do this justice. And likely, no Hollywood actors are going to go to the real place to get the job done. These men are in THE real place on THE very top of our planet capturing its incredible glory. It's stunning and beautiful and courageous, and it takes you somewhere you will never go....to The North Pole.
Envigorating to watch. Visually beautiful! Impossibly daring. Into the Cold is a story of unbelievable determination against incredible odds. And, if you have a big screen, all the better, because Into the Cold is even bigger than that.
One thing to note... I highly suggest you bring your coat, because Sebastian and Keith are taking you INTO THE COLD.
Absolutley recommended!
Visually stunning the film gives a good idea what its like to be alone on the ice. The visuals in this film are amazing and and are the reason the film should be seen.
The trouble is that the film is kind of a mess other wise. The film is very much a self love letter to Copeland with narration that is much too purple and self congratulatory. I came to despise the central figure of the film because its all about him.
How much is it about him? We get a good look at his life, but at the same time we learn almost nothing about Keith Heger who made the trip with Copeland. Sure he's there, but he's more a body than anything else, its all Copeland. The film also gives almost no background on the original trip of Perry and Henson. It was something that happened and other than a couple of pictures and an odd mention about how they had to walk back and were not helicoptered home (as Heger and Copeland were).
There is also way too much talk of climate change. Its clear that there is a problem, but Copeland the director drones on repeatedly about it at every opportunity so that it isn't long before we want to scream "enough". It would be fine if he had managed to work the subject into relevant parts of the narration, but he doesn't with the result it seems out of place. (actually it's like being hit over the head with a toaster).
However with all that is wrong with the narrative, there is the images. the images are amazing. The images are the films saving grace. If it wasn't for the spectacular images the film would be a major bust."
