The apartment was fine. It was clean and there were plenty of towels and the like are present. Furthermore, the location ideal for us. Well 10 minutes outside the center, but if you sit at the top of a double decker bus have you started with sightseeing. Furthermore, there are plenty of shops nearby for groceries. The sea was around the corner for delicious fish & chips and if you get the Leith end towards the sea there are some nice pubs where you can eat. The city itself is indeed really great, eenechte recommended!
Het appartement was prima. Het was schoon en er waren voldoende handdoeken en dergelijke aanwezig. Verder was de ligging voor ons ideaal. Wel 10 min buiten het centrum, maar als je bovenin een dubbeldekker bus zit ben je al begonnen met sightseeing. Verder zijn er in de buurt genoeg winkels voor boodschappen. De gold sea om de hoek om heerlijke fish & chips te halen en als je de Leith afloopt richting de zee zijn er een aantal leuke pubs waar je heerlijk kunt eten.
De stad zelf is trouwens echt geweldig, eenechte aanrader!!

SAIC Loses Bid Protest for U.S. Army Ground Combat Vehicle
SAIC Inc.'s protest of the U.S. Army's decision to award development contracts for a new ground combat vehicle to two competitors was denied by the Government Accountability Office.
The decision was released in an e-mail today by Ralph White, managing associate general counsel for procurement law at the GAO.
"Our review of the record led us to conclude that the Army's evaluation decisions resulting in the award of only 2 contracts were reasonable, consistent with the stated evaluation criteria, and did not improperly favor the successful offerors over SAIC," White wrote.
SAIC, based in McLean, Virginia, on Aug. 26 protested the Army's award a week earlier of technology development contracts to two competing industry teams.
The Pentagon announced on Aug. 18 that a team led by BAE Systems Plc of London received a $450 million contract and a team led by General Dynamics Corp. of Falls Church, Virginia, received a $440 million contract.
"We are disappointed to learn that the GAO did not sustain SAIC's protest, and as a result of that decision will not grant the requested relief to award a third GCV contract to SAIC's Team Full Spectrum," Melissa Koskovich, a spokeswoman for SAIC, wrote in an e-mail. "We are confident that our innovative approach provided a best value solution to the Army and U.S. taxpayers."
International Partners
SAIC was partnered with Chicago-based Boeing Co., as well as Germany's Krauss-Maffei Wegmann GmbH and Rheinmetall AG.
The Army initially planned to award up to three contracts for the 24-month technology development phase of the program. The overall program is estimated to cost as much as $40 billion, according to a March GAO report.
The service wants to buy as many as 1,874 vehicles to replace a portion of its fleet of Bradley infantry fighting vehicles. The new armored vehicles are designed to carry nine soldiers and their equipment.
Army Secretary John McHugh on Nov. 2 said the service may also consider buying for the program Germany's Puma vehicle, made by a joint venture of Krauss-Maffei Wegmann and Rheinmetall, and Israel's Namer, made by General Dynamics.
Program Frozen
White of the GAO wrote that the decision "expresses no view as to the merits" of the initial proposals and that the bid-protest process examines whether procuring agencies complied with statutory and regulatory requirements.
SAIC's protest froze development of the program for about three months. The Army wanted to begin delivering the vehicle in seven years, or fiscal 2018.
"We're ready to support the Army," Rob Doolittle a spokesman for General Dynamics, said in a telephone interview. "We're looking forward to getting back to work on the contract."
The General Dynamics team includes Lockheed Martin Corp., Raytheon Co. and Tognum AG. The BAE Systems team includes Northrop Grumman Corp., QinetiQ Group Plc, iRobot Corp., Tognum AG and Saft Groupe SA, according to the company.
"We are pleased with this decision as it paves the way for this important program to progress, and we look forward to working with our Army customer to move ahead," Shannon Booker, a BAE spokeswoman, wrote in an e-mail.

Easy Country Gravy
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 15 mins
You can use half chicken broth and milk if desired, add in some cayenne for some heat also.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 cup vegetable oil
- 3⁄4 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt or 1 teaspoon salt
- black pepper (lots black pepper!)
- 4 cups milk or 4 cups half-and-half cream or 4 cups 18% table cream
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; whisk in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth.
- Cook and stir over medium heat until browned (about 10 minutes, the mixture MUST be browned!).
- Gradually whisk in milk or cream; cook/whisk until smooth and thickened (no lumps must remain).
- If the gravy becomes too thick add in a litle more milk and whisk until smooth and heated.
Most Helpful
Don't listen to those clowns. 4 oz of oil to 32 oz of milk is not too much and if you even have a smidge of an idea on how to cook this recipe is described just fine. The gravy came out great! I always made mine from the packet but decided I would try from scratch and I'll never buy the packet again. I added hot Italian sausage and cayenne pepper to mine. Thank you Kittencal for sharing this recipe I will definitely try your others
Horrible. The instructions weren't especially helpful. Might be good to go back and add detail like when and how the mixture is supposed to thicken. Might also like to specify what you mean by browning - like making caramel, there are shades of brown and which one you stop at is important. Light brown? Dark brown? Medium brown? Either way, the result tasted like reduced cardboard with milk, and adding heaps of salt and pepper is done more to mask the lack of flavor than enhance it. I'm typically never this negative about a review, but this recipe was unnecessarily vague (incomplete/unhelpful recipe instructions) and the result was shameful.
I followed the recipe to the T and it came out terrible. I should of known, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil is ridiculous. This was disgusting, I wasted a lot of oil, flour, and half & half for a big pot of nasty thick "gravy". Disappointment.

Waxman and Stupak demand BP detail scope of greenwashing campaign
While on vacation, I missed reposting this Brad Johnson piece from Wonk Room:
In a letter to BP America CEO Lamar McKay, Reps. Henry Waxman (D-CA) and Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) are demanding that BP disclose its "spending on corporate advertising and marketing relating to the the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and relief, recovery, and restoration efforts in the Gulf of Mexico." Their request follows the efforts of Rep. Kathy Castor (D-FL) to get answers about BP's massive greenwashing campaign, which includes months of full-page advertisements in national and regional newspapers, radio spots, television commercials, and Internet ads on websites including ThinkProgress.org. Outside estimates of the scope of the greenwashing campaign managed by BP's public relations firm Mediashare are in the tens of millions of dollars, the Washington Post's Krissah Thompson reports:
After the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded in April, BP went on the air with television ads and bought a series of full-page ads in The Washington Post, Wall Street Journal and other papers to position itself as an imperfect but responsible corporation committed to the cleanup of the gulf. The company has spent $55.8 million on television and print advertising so far this year, according to the Nielsen Co., which tracks ad spending.
According to Media Monitors, BP's radio spots surged to 10,684 last week, with a particular focus on Florida stations. Since mid-July, BP's internet ads have been running on political blogs, including Talking Points Memo, the Common Sense Media network of liberal sites from FireDogLake to AmericaBlog, and a host of right-wing sites, including Eagle Interactive's network with RedState and the Salem Web Network's Townhall.com and Hot Air.
BP seems to be working harder to protect its brand than to help the people of the Gulf Coast, argued Alabama Attorney General Troy King. He has filed suit against BP because "while BP is spending millions on print ads and airtime, it's not spending what it should on claims." Fortunately, BP's control of the claims process will finally end Monday, with the launch of Kenneth Feinberg's Gulf Coast Claims Facility.

Exxon talked about how generous and responsible they were after the Valdez spill. The oil companies think that we are suckers who will believe anything, and consider PR ads a better investment than actually helping people or designing for safety.
This is not really a smart financial decision, because Americans aren't as dumb as they think we are. Their PR campaigns are just another expression of these companies' deep inner sickness.
General Motors is leading the auto industry in shifting their traditional advertising campaigns to online marketing. The third-largest advertiser will spend half of their $3 billion advertising budget online.

Chicken Little is a 2005 American computer-animated science fiction family film based on the popular fable, The Sky Is Falling. The 46th animated feature film from Walt Disney Feature Animation, Chicken Little tells the tale of a neurotic little chick, Chicken Little (voice of Zach Braff), who sees the end of the world around every corner. In the typical "boy who cried wolf" fashion, however, the end of the world is, eventually, around the corner and no one will believe Chicken Little when he tries to warn them! An alien invasion is imminent and, as Chicken Little's warnings are merely scoffed at, it is up to Chicken Little and his band of fellow outcasts, Abby Mallard (voice of Joan Cusack), Runt of the Litter (voice of Steve Zahn), and Fish Out of Water (voice of Dan Molina), to save the day. Chicken Little is a cute film about friendship, identity, and fighting for what you believe.

Come on Jimmy can't ya take the Heat ? I have heard it all now
That's because Cramer has been getting absolutely SLAMMED on twitter the last few days for his outright BASHING of Apple and constant regurgitation of "my daughter thinks apple isn't cool, yada yada yada". The fact that he waited to lay it on thick until after the WSJ/order cut news rubbed alot of people the wrong way.
It's safe to say alot of his Mad Money lemmings panic sold this week. Poor sods.
and he then has the nerve to get repulsive about it ? Wow what brass he has.
I think I even saw a tear...
Now he wants Aapl UP ... so his Charitable Trust can make more money... lmao
Keep in mind, Cramer may talk big, but he only holds about 150 shares in his charitable trust.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I guess the fool reads this board. Either that or he knows the higher ups are watching his every crooked move. Too late for redemtion....you`re time is over Jimmy. Hopefully there is a nice indictment waiting for you.

It was necessary to clear an area covered by squashed and tangled vehicles
left at his Muqata compound during previous Israeli incursions.
But it was not until his people learned that he had died - first thing on
Thursday morning in a hospital in France - that the job of digging his grave
Diggers, bulldozers and lorries worked in the shade of six trees standing
incongruously in the middle of the large open stretch of tarmac in the
south-east corner of the Muqata.
They dug a hole about two metres deep, five metres long and two metres wide,
carting off the earth to another corner of the Muqata, where the other
debris had already been piled up.
Cement, sand and bricks were stacked up by the graveside, as electricians
rigged floodlights along a nearby wall and erected a solitary street light
near the burial place.
Bird's eye view
The cheerless task was undertaken in full view of the big international
media outlets, which have taken up positions on several tall buildings
overlooking this corner of the Muqata.
From here we could not only see all of the compound, but also half of
Ramallah - with its square sand-coloured buildings and black plumes of smoke
from burning tyres - to the hills of the West Bank beyond, some of them
crested by Israeli settlements.
For people outside the compound though - mainly Palestinians who have come
to mourn the passing of their leader of nearly half a century - the work was
hidden behind high concrete walls, which was perhaps more fitting compared
with our hungry see-everything attitude.
The numbers of mourners have not been huge, but they have been bolstered by the occasional
organised demonstration of Fatah youths numbering a few hundred.
They waved banners and palm fronds with Arafat's poster attached to them,
punching the air and shouting: "Yasser was the
people, the people will not die" and called for revenge on Israel for
"poisoning" their leader.
Left hanging around
Other people were milling around too: a knot of peasant
women in embroidered toab garments, singing traditional funeral laments for
Mr Arafat; another group of women, puffy-eyed but smart, in black western
clothes, trimmed dramatically with the black-and-white ghutra headscarf
made famous by Mr Arafat himself.
One young black-clad woman complained that she had come along expecting some
kind of opportunity to pay her respects properly.
She asked me if I knew anything about the funeral arrangements, of which I was
able to tell her vague details.
"It's typical that we, the Palestinians, are the last to find out about
anything. We're left to hang around outside in this street when what we
really need is support from our leaders at a time of grief."
Suddenly about 10 gun-toting militiamen in black balaclava helmets marched
up the street, sparking a frenzy of activity from the assembled TV cameramen
and press photographers.
Their leader mounted one of the wooden platforms built by an Arabic TV
station, gave a quick interview, before they marched back down the streets,
cameramen in tow.
Sand burial
Back at the BBC vantage point, I could see that the workmen had now built
the beginnings of a wall around their hole.
In my absence, I was told, a concrete sarcophagus had been lowered in, ready
to receive the leader's body tomorrow.
It was still not clear if it was going to be just an exterior wall around
the tomb, or a roofed structure.
It would have to be something simple probably, because there was only 24
hours to go before the burial.
Apparently Mr Arafat's casket is to be encased in sand - so he can be reburied
in Jerusalem at some time in the future, which Israel will not allow at the
It reminded me of the millions of Palestinian refugees living in this region, many of whom live in wretched conditions, waiting to be allowed to return to homes in what is now Israel.
Final years
A former Palestinian minister was waiting for his turn on camera and I
engaged him in conversation as we watched from on high.
He explained that the burial location was where Mr Arafat had had a prayer
hall - demolished by Israeli forces some time ago - where he and his cabinet
also used to receive visitors.
A little to the right was the building where Mr Arafat spent his final
years, before being rushed to Paris for the last short episode of a life
spent mostly in exile.
The minister pointed out three tall buildings nearby from where Israeli
snipers had ensured that Mr Arafat never left his meagre quarters for the
last two-and-a-half years.
Before today dozens of crude anti-helicopter devices - blue barrels filled
with concrete holding upright 3-metre-long metal tubes - had been scattered
throughout the area to prevent an Israeli snatch-squad from grabbing Mr
Arafat and taking him off to Gaza or to exile.
In the end, it was a medical emergency that achieved what the Israelis had
threatened to do.
The barrels have now been lined up in two rows to make a rather sorry
ceremonial walkway leading to another Muqata building, the conference hall
where Arafat's body will be taken after its arrival from Egypt tomorrow.

You'll make a vow to return again and again...
On Thursdays, Steve Kerin entertains the Chapel by playing all your favorite songs, but in a way that you've never heard them before - on solo pipe organ!
We renovated the historic Little Chapel of the Chimes (ca. 1932) into community gathering spot for everyone, young and old alike. The main floor houses a family-friendly neighborhood pub with seating for 100 people, along with an outdoor patio, while the second floor serves as McMenamins' company headquarters.
While you're here, check out the beautiful ironwork throughout the property, fashioned by talented craftsman O.B. Dawson in the early 1930s. Look familiar? Perhaps because Dawson's work is also showcased at Timberline Lodge, the University of Oregon and Oregon State. You're also welcome to enjoy our company artists' quirky murals and portraits throughout, painted in homage to the building's history and former life.

And all this with a background of modern skyscrapers, traditional old shophouses and colonial architecture.

"Kamperland" Kamperland by Twan
Kamperland Travel Guide: 3 reviews and 17 photos
Kamperland is a village in the municipality of Zeeland North Beveland. The population is 2049 (January 1, 2008). It is the largest town on the island.
The place was formerly known as Campen and is already mentioned in 976. The name is derived from the Latin campus, that "field" or "enclosed land" means. Campen in 1170 is listed as an independent parish. It must have been an important place, because the current Veere in Walcheren Camp Vere was formerly called the place where the ferry to Campen left.
Two floods in the 16th century, St. Felix Flood on November 5, 1530 and November 2, 1532 at All Saints flood ravaged North Beveland, and hereby Campen also disappeared in the sea. Since 1598, North Beveland again drained. After the embankment of the Lord-Polder Jansz was the site of the old Campen current Kamperland built, the last of the reconstructed North Beveland places. Unlike Colijnsplaat, Kats, Kortgene, Geersdijk and Wissenkerke, Kamperland was not systematically applied.
Since the conclusion of the Sand Creek dam (1960) and the Veerse Gatdam (1961), is Kamperland in Lake Veere. From May to September there is still a ferry at Veere maintained, albeit only for pedestrians and cyclists. Agricultural village, the place gradually developed into tourist center, with several parks and campsites.

'Eats, Shoots & Leaves'
Punctuation, Long Abused, Makes a Comeback
Web Extra: Extended Interview with Lynne Truss
Lynne Truss, writer, journalist and advocate of proper punctuation, has come to rescue us from the misplaced comma. In her book, Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation, Truss shows how an improper punctuation mark can make all the difference. Unearthing examples of bizarre and careless errors through the ages, this narrative history also shares witty teasers and ambiguous phrases, all entirely dependent on the punctuation.
One such example lent the book its title:
A panda walks into a bar. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.
"Why? Why are you behaving in this strange, un-panda-like fashion?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda walks towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.
"I'm a panda," he says, at the door. "Look it up."
The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.
"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
Already a best-seller in the United Kingdom, Eats, Shoots & Leaves is now available in the United States. NPR's Bob Edwards speaks to Truss about her book and those powerful little commas and apostrophes.

7 Fad Diets To Avoid
5- The Cabbage Soup DietThe New Cabbage Soup Diet - Margaret Danbrot
How it works: This word-of-mouth diet was finally put into writing by Danbrot, who claims that you can lose up to 20 pounds in seven days by consuming a vegetable-based soup (cabbage, onions, peppers, tomatoes, celery, and onion soup mix) and one other food. However, she stresses that it should not be followed for more than seven days since it consists of less than 1,000 calories a day.
Pros: Rapid weight loss.
Cons: The weight loss, which is due to loss of water or lean body tissue, is temporary. It can also lead to side effects such as nausea, lightheadedness and gas... so don't plan a date if you're on this diet.
Long-term: As with most "crash" diets, weight loss is practically impossible to maintain.
6- The Grapefruit DietThe Grapefruit Diet - Creator unknown
How it works: Although it has never been put into writing, this diet is one of the most popular in the United States. It requires you to eat a grapefruit at every meal, along with a small amount of protein (eggs, beef or chicken), black coffee, and salad. Since grapefruit is believed to contain a fat-burning enzyme and the average number of calories consumed is a mere 800 per day, rapid weight loss will occur. Many claim to have lost between 12 and 20 pounds after following this diet for a week or two.
Pros: You'll be getting high amounts of vitamin C and fiber.
Cons: This diet is nutritionally deficient since it restricts followers to a few specific foods. Most men will find it very difficult to survive on so few calories.
Long-term: You'll gain back what you lost once you return to your old eating habits.
7- The Caveman DietNeander-Thin: Eat like a Caveman to Achieve a Lean, Strong, Healthy Body - Ray Audette
How it works: According to Audette, modern processed foods such as wheat and grains are to be blamed for obesity. He also opines that the caveman stayed lean thanks to a diet composed of lean meat, fish, nuts, seeds, berries, and fresh fruits and veggies.
Pros: The recommended "whole" foods contain more vitamins and nutrients than processed foods. This program may be easier for men to follow than calorie-restricted diets.
Cons: His theory isn't supported by research.
Long-term: You'll likely fall victim to carbohydrate cravings and gain back the lost weight.
it's not workingLet's face it; fad diets work initially because they cut back the number of calories ingested. When you burn more calories than you consume, weight loss occurs. However, when you return to your old eating habits, you'll pack on the pounds once again.
The major problem with fad diets is that they offer short-term solutions rather than permanent lifestyle changes. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The only way to lose weight and keep it off is by adopting healthy eating habits along with a regular exercise regimen.

'No laptops allowed' at the Adams House printing press
By Ken Gewertz
Gazette Staff
Staff photos by Stephanie Mitchell
In this age of desktop publishing, on-demand printing, and more copy machines than pay telephones, it's easy to forget where the whole thing started, but a visit to the Bow and Arrow Press in Adams House is a good place to refresh your memory.
Johannes Gutenberg would have felt at home in this place. So would Ben Franklin. No digital fonts here. No lasers or ink-jets. This is moveable type in its original sense little backward letters made from lead alloy, lying in wooden cases. You move them, not with a keystroke or the tweak of a mouse, but by picking them up with your ink-stained fingers and fitting them into a compositor's stick. And mind your p's and q's in the original sense, that is. P's face left and q's right, the opposite of the way they turn out on the page.
Ralph Vetters '85 is the pressmeister here. Now a student at Harvard Medical School, Vetters became hooked on printing as an undergraduate when he made a poster for a roommate who was putting on a play, becoming acquainted with the Bow and Arrow Press in the process. He now has two printing presses at home in addition to the three at Adams House and is on the lookout for a good used Linotype machine, a complicated keyboard-operated affair that sets type automatically the latest in printing technology, circa 1886.
Nothing pleases Vetters more than hearing that some old-time printing company is going out of business. It means that more of this wonderful, irreplaceable technology will be up for sale trays of type or dingbats (not Edith Bunker, but decorative designs used at the beginning of a paragraph), logos, pictures, diagrams, or fine old presses like the Vandercook #4 that sits squarely in the shop's alcove with the authority and solidity of a block of granite.
Hung around the walls are examples of work printed in the shop posters, greeting cards, poetry broadsides, and others that defy categorization. One of these might be the motto of the Bow and Arrow Press itself with its defiant affirmation of predigital technology. The letters are a little crooked, a little smudged, but the message is clear: "Keep yer stanky laptop outa here!"

Last week, a flash snowstorm brought me around 2ft of snow overnight. I thought, "If I'm going to clear that much snow, might as well have some fun and make a timelapse out of it", and so I did. While watching it, I realized, "Hmm… that's an interesting metaphor for the huge amount of preparatory and cleanup work we've been doing in the past few years":
Category Archives: Pitivi
Pitivi status update for Q1 2014, fundraiser launch
Since my previous technical update in January, I haven't had time to touch Pitivi's code. Thankfully though, Alexandru Băluț has been filling the gap with a ton of refactoring work: around 150 commits! That took a fair amount of time to review and merge, believe me. Besides code cleanup, he also finished the port of the viewer to a cluttersink, fixed fonts and theme colors detection for the timeline (so it looks fine even if you're not using the Adwaita GNOME theme).
Applying for a GSoC project is all about early involvement and commitment
This year, Pitivi's focus for GSoC projects will be a little bit different than in 2013. As you can see in our preliminary ideas page, there is much less GStreamer (or GES) work involved, as we tried to focus on Pitivi UI work — easier, concrete projects, mostly only in Python. Most of the hardcore backend work we needed to accomplish was done throughout 2013. Of course, there are still some hardcore project ideas around if you feel like you're up for a challenge. Anyway, the list of ideas is just that: a list of ideas. We're more than happy for you to come up with your own ideas (thinking outside the box is a positive trait, feel free to impress us).
Presenting and hacking Pitivi at Pycon 2014
Pycon, or what I'd call the "main Pycon" (vs one of the sub-Pycons), has traditionally always been held in the United States of America. This year, it will be held in Montréal.
Scratching some Media Library itches
Besides catching a cold and shovelling snow, this holiday season I spent some time scratching itches in Pitivi. For starters, thumbnails generation: if you've been using the new Pitivi, you certainly ran into this:
Wanted: documentation specialist
The Pitivi project is looking for someone who loves teaching/writing, to fill the position of "documentation specialist" among our team! The documentation specialist will be responsible for updating our fantastic user manual (online version here) based on release notes of 0.91 and 0.92 as well as your own imagination/ideas for improvement.
Pitivi 0.92 and the wandering opensourcerer
The past few weeks have been pretty crazy.
At the last minute, I ended up going to the GStreamer Conference in Edinburgh, thanks to the GStreamer project sponsoring my attendance. As always, it was a fantastic event and it was great to meet up with old friends and see great topics being discussed. I was pretty impressed by the amount of attendees too. I'm feeling guilty for having missed good talks while being dragged into hallway discussions or being hammered by jetlag, but our pals at Ubicast recorded everything so I should be able to catch up later. My good friend Luis summarized the event much better than I could, so I won't go into detail here. Except that Thibault won a bottle of whiskey and was unable to claim it, so I picked it up and brought it back for him (I don't hack on GStreamer itself, so I don't need the whiskey):
Pitivi 0.91 "Charming Defects"
And so it has come to this.
Fix it thrice
Some of you may be familiar with the good old "fix it twice" adage: fix the problem and then ensure it never happens again.
Prague, Brno, London, GNOME + Pitivi

I am a template designer and i have recently posted those 50 kubrick headers.
After finding that header many people asked me whether i can give them PSD (photoshop source file) to edit themself, so they want to pay $10 to $20 for the header psd only.
Suddenly i thought it seems a good idea so i can do this type of custom jobs. But my question is whether i can sell and showcase tuned version of any GPL based themes , may be particularly Kubrick.
Please reply,
Thank you,

Magazines are recurring items in the Final Fantasy series. In the vast majority of occurrences, the magazines are of pornographic nature and are only found as an Easter Egg and bear no relevance to the plot.
In the North American releases, some magazines were either renamed due to censorship, or removed from the game completely.
Final Fantasy IVEdit
The Magazine (エッチな本, Etchi na Hon?, lit. H book) (GBA), also known as Playboy, Playboy Magazine, Smut (PS), PornoMag, Penthouse, or Lustful Lali-Ho (3D), is an item heavily implied being pornographic in nature and the screen turns pink when the player reads it. It can only be obtained in the Developer's Office, which was not included in the initial American release, meaning the magazine could not be obtained.
The magazine serves a purpose in the 3D version; after getting a copy, placing it on a stool in the Developer's Room causes it to be confiscated, one of the requirements for getting the Reach Augment. There are, in fact, multiple pornographic magazines in the 3D version: the Lustful Lali-ho found in the Dwarven Castle, and the Ninja Sutra, several of which can be found in Eblan. The player can use it in battle, but it will not do anything. It is apparently Cecil's favorite magazine.
Cecil is not the only character who can read the magazine; since any character can be in the lead, any playable character (except for Tellah) can read it at any point in the game.
Final Fantasy IV -Interlude-Edit
The Lustful Lali-Ho works the same way as it did in the prequel, it is found inside the Developer's Office by defeating Game Designer.
Final Fantasy IV: The After YearsEdit
Many dirty magazine copies can be obtained. If the player fights the Game Designer in the Developer's Room after giving it a Lustful Lali-Ho, they will sometimes receive a Discovery Book, an item that increases a character's max MP by 50.
Final Fantasy VEdit
In the library at Castle Surgate, if the player chooses the bookcase before the "A" file, Bartz will say "A..., as..., aha!... Hey, this is about donkeys!" Lenna will reply "Er... Bartz, what were you looking for?", and he will respond "uh? Nothing, nothing at all!" implying Bartz was looking for an adult book (presumably he was searching for the word "Ass").
Final Fantasy VIEdit
"Bushido in the Bedroom" (also referred to as "Book of Secrets") is an item found at Mt. Zozo in the World of Ruin, when the party encounters Cyan. Along with guides for understanding and operating machinery, the player finds the book in Cyan's trunk.
Before the release of Final Fantasy VI Advance the item was merely called "Book of Secrets", and the game shed no light on the nature of its contents. With the release of the GBA version it is implied the "secrets" refers to advice on sex.
In the original Japanese version, the party member calls it 「ちょっとエッチな本」 (Chotto ecchi na hon), literally "a little naughty book".
Final Fantasy VIIEdit
Included with the International Version's special fourth disc is a large collection of various background items seen during the course of the game. "H-Books" is an adult magazine from Corel Prison, "Ecchi Manga" is an adult magazine from Junon, and what appears to be a gay theme magazine is from the Honey Bee Inn.
Final Fantasy VIIIEdit
Weapons Monthly, Pet Pals, Combat King, and Occult Fan are series of magazines that give players information on remodeling weapons, teaching limit breaks to Rinoa and Zell, and hints to optional sidequests respectively. Collecting all Weapons Monthly, Combat King, Pet Pals and Occult Fan magazines in the Steam version earns the player the achievement Magazine Addict.
Laguna also used to work as a journalist and many of his articles were published in Timber Maniacs, a magazine that has since ceased publishing due to being viewed too controversial due to its openly political nature. Other magazines mentioned in name only are Battle Series, found scattered on the Timber Maniacs building's floor, to which Squall comments he has read them all, and Anarchist Monthly, of which some paper clippings can be read on a notice board in the Forest Owls' base.
There is a key item called The Girl Next Door that can be traded to Zone in exchange for either 25,000 gil or a Rename Card and Shiva's card. It is described in the menu as "A naughty magazine" and can be found in Timber Maniacs building. If the player attempts to purchase one in Timber they get told they are not of age. Irvine also appears to have a stash of his own, as he leaves a magazine for Squall and Rinoa in the "secret spot" he has prepared for them.
Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the RiftEdit
The Bonga Bugle is a monthly magazine run by two seeq, the Owner and the Head Editor.
Final Fantasy DimensionsEdit
A magazine can be found by either the Warriors of Light or Warriors of Darkness. If used from the inventory, the player gets a different response from whichever character they have in the lead. A dirty magazine can also be found by looking under a bed, but a party member makes Sol put it back.

• A retrospective analysis of 50 patients with childhood systemic lupus erythematosus seen during the past 13 years shows 35 living patients, 13 dead, and 2 lost to follow-up. Fourteen patients were males and 36 females, with the median age of onset 14 years. Clinical presentation was multisystemic in 31, primarily renal in 12, hematologic in 5, and atypical in 2. Renal involvement occurred at some time in all 50 patients. Central nervous system symptoms were present in 22 of 50. Survival in the present series is compared with previously reported survival models in the pediatric age group.

According to Ken Fisher in an article in Forbes, "Find Stocks Like Tim, Tim and Timken," it is a "reasonably priced way to play Latin America's growth." Enersis is held in exchangetraded funds such as Claymore Frontier Markets (FRN, quote).Increasing the appeal are very solid and stable financials. The price-to-sales ratio is just 0.98. All of the returns and all of the margins are healthy. The forward price-to-earnings ratio is 11.88.The dividend is equally attractive in its strength and stability. At 3.89%, it is much higher than the average of around 2% for a stock on the Standard & Poor's 500 Index. In addition, it is very sustainable, as the payout ratio is well under 40%.When Fisher was touting Enersis earlier this year in Forbes, it was trading around $24 a share. Now it is about $19.70. The mean analyst target price for Enersis over the next year is $30.27. This is the same stock Fisher recommended, only trading at a substantial discount with the same upside.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Dec 01st, 1991
Running Time: 74
Director: Sal Thomas
Company: Factory Home Video
Cast: Bridgette Aime, Alicyn Sterling, Don Fernando, Melanie Moore, Jake Steed, Cal Jammer, Jerry Butler, Maxine (I), Saki Satina
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
Bad sound in some spots doesn't hurt this tale of a porn exec's (Cal Jammer) problems replacing an uppity starlet named "Beverly Wills." The old "casting couch" scenario gets some new life heavy-breathed into it thanks to the enthusiastic, horny cast and some inspired sex performances. The best scene has Cal exploding all three of Bridgette Aime's adorable cavities. Fans have come to expect anal sex when Aime's around, and she doesn't let anyone down here, least of all Jammer. Their backdoor scene is a scorcher, complete with mondo close-ups.
All six hardcore scenes are general pleasers, even the throw-in with Alicyn Sterling and Don Fernando. It's never explained who they are or what they have to do with the story, but Sterling's pretty face and huge tits, which appear to be ready to explode upon impact, are in fine form. Melanie Moore and Maxine's jail cell lesbian gash grinder is another winner. But whenever you put two blondes behind bars, that sort of stuff always happens. On the whole, an above-average offering from F.H.V.. Not exactly Something New, but it'll do just fine.

My friend left his job a year ago and did not hand in his corporate laptop. He recently contacted his old employer and they told him not to bother returning it.
However the laptop is now completely unusable as there were several layers of encryption and he is completely locked out.
I was told that the only way to make it usable again would be to completely change the motherboard.
I found the motherboard going for £160 online and the laptop is worth over £600, so it would make financial sense to do this?!
But will reinstalling the motherboard really solve the problems of being locked out? Can I reuse the old cpu/ram/hardrive etc?
How hard a job will this be?

Released: Jun 01st, 1998
Running Time: 114
Director: Thor Stephens
Company: Fox Studios
Cast: Lance Goodthrust, Anthony Gallo, Troy Halston, Sharon Kane, Morgan Allen, Eduardo (I), Vince Harrington, Sam Crockett, Matt Bradshaw, Mark Mason, Duncan Starr, Kyle McKenna, Kurt Stefano
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Gay and Bi
If your customers enjoy porn with a plot, \"Thunder Balls\" should please them.
In true Bond-like fashion, Thunder Balls opens with agent 007-1/2 James Blond (Duncan Starr) betrayed and presumably killed by an amorous enemy agent (Kyle McKenna), and then miraculously escaping unscathed. Over the theme song, the credits roll while split-screen sex and Lava Lites combine to create the look and mood of a classic secret agent film. The plot unfolds, replete with double agents, clues, betrayals and lots of sex. Vince Harrington and alter persona Lana Luster play Boris and Tanya Whobitchercockoff, evil twins heading the diabolical organization CONDOM, which aims to destroy the world. The numerous trivia references from many Bond films contained in this farcical romp should please any 007-phile.
Directing (Thor Stephens), Videography (John Simms and Peter Goesinya), Editing (Kevin Glover/Aries Post), Art Direction (Galaxy Productions) and Writing (Thor Stephens) should all be noted at awards time, as well as Vince Harrington/Lana Luster's demented, dual, sex/non-sex performance.

36. Open a Door With No Knob
The key is engaging the spindle—the four-sided bar connected to the knob that retracts the bolt or latch. If the knob is off but the spindle is still sticking out, use pliers to grip and turn it. But if the spindle has fallen irretrievably on the far side of the door, find a suitable substitute—say, a large flathead screwdriver or even a fat pen. Fit it tightly into the spindle hole and turn.

By Kevin M. Guite, AMSAA contributing writerJuly 9, 2013
ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, Md. -- The Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity (AMSAA) initiated the Center for Army Acquisition Lessons Learned (CAALL) in response to a 2010 Army Acquisition Review recommendation that the Army should develop a single database that captures "appropriate programs, issues, trends, solutions and successes in acquisition programs."
The AAE (Army Acquisition Executive), the honorable Heidi Shyu, signed a memo on January 8, 2012 directing AMSAA to "create a web-enabled database for Acquisition Lessons Learned and provide analytical capability to conduct the analysis."
After more than a year of tweaking and refining, the capability is delivering relevant trend analysis and lessons learned to Army counterparts.
The memo tasked program, project, and product managers of all ACAT programs to conduct an After Action Review (AAR) after all milestone events and program terminations, and submit these lessons through the website in order to share this knowledge with the Army acquisition community.
"We have to put data in and have the Program Managers use it, or it is just a repository. It comes down to how easy it is to search, digest the information, and identify trends" said Shyu.
Gabe Camarillo, Principal Deputy to AAE continued "The most useful aspect is to filter lessons, depending on milestone or phase, to easily find the information needed."
User access to valuable acquisition lessons learned and best practices is obtained through the Acquisition Lessons Learned Portal (ALLP), which is a web-based application managed by AMSAA's Acquisition Lessons Learned Team. Within the portal's database is a collection of practical lessons submitted by Army acquisition professionals in response to real-world acquisition challenges. These lessons tackle a variety of Army acquisition program challenges that most likely could not be addressed in official Army acquisition training courses.
"The Army has become risk averse. There are multiple documents needed to show you've laid the program out right. Failures are no longer accepted. Thirty to forty years ago it was understood that failures are part of the learning process" said Shyu during a live demonstration of the portal, which occurred earlier this year.
She added that the acquisition processes are "forcing Program Managers to be more rigorous, to think through the affordability of requirements."
Program, project, and product managers have been encouraged by the AAE to use the database as a means to learn from what other programs have already experienced. Lessons can be searched according to acquisition milestone, category, and ACAT level. The ultimate goal is to improve program success while supporting Army acquisition planning, programming and decisions.
For those government users wishing to provide or capitalize on the Army's Acquisition Lessons Learned, please visit https://allp.amsaa.army.mil to request an account.

Skip to comments.Texas high school silences Valedictorian's microphone during speech on Constitution, report says
Posted on 06/08/2013 7:45:18 AM PDT by AtlasStalled
A Texas high school silenced its Valedictorians microphone during his speech when he diverted from his pre-approved remarks and instead spoke about the Constitution.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Go head, make the argument we are not on a precipice of a totalitarian state.
I guess that school authorities need to go to constitution class remediation.
I probably support the young man's views on the Constitution wholeheartedly; however, he was fully aware of the school's rules and decided to shirk them. For his sake, I hope he learns to abide by rules more closely at Annapolis. Godspeed on his time there and in serving our country.
My daughter is Valedictorian....she won't let me write her speech....
Government schools are training students that they have no freedom of speech if government officials do not approve of what they say, totally unconstitutional.
he Superintendent and principal and school board members should be taken to court over this.
School District ordered to eliminate any reference to our Constitution by the Obama/Duncan Common Core Education Mandate?
I'm sick of the pre approved speech crap.
Let the kids say what they want as long as its within reasonable common decency norms.
What surprises me most is that this happened in Texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There was a time I would have agreed with you but no longer.
As the left has taught us, there are time you need to "speak truth to power"
For the elite in this nation, only one view is protected speech, anything else is "hate speech".
If you go along with their "rule" then you surrender your rights as a free person.
I applaud all those that are standing up to petty dictators in this nation.
I certainly ignore plenty of stupid and petty rules, and live as a free man.
In Texas, of all places!!! And pursuant to "policy and procedure."
I told ya, Texas has an issue. Austin can not be contained.
Fair to wonder if he offered his Constitution speech and it was rejected.
Our Constitution is hate speech now?
Quite a slick trick, actually. Take money from people at gunpoint in the name of education that they could have spent on their children's education, then the schools you provide are forbidden from teaching them what you believe, only what the government wants them to believe.
That is a pertinent question and I'd like to know that as well. If I were him, I'd submit his non-approved speech for publication in an editorial or a friendly blog — like this one.
Even in Texas, government schools stink. Parents who care will find a way to avoid these indoctrination centers that scar their children. The sacrifices required are well worth it.
I suppose if they had launched into some obscene tirade or something of the sort, the principal would have took it upon himself to cut off the mike, but that was about it.
I remember the class president/jock launching into what many of us thought was an inappropriate tirade against parents/students whom he felt didn't show sufficient support for high school athletics and team sports, but we figured that it was more or less balanced out by the class valedictorian whose talk included this tribute to Jesus Christ which put things into a more proper perspective.
Looks like this was near Dallas.
Typical liberal moves. If you don't like what you are hearing you silence it. They want to tell you how they want things and ban or silence what they don't like. Terrible.
This is not a blog.
The person who silenced the mic. should be fired. I do not care what the rules are. If we lack the courage to break stupid rules like these, it will be absolutely be the end of this country. We will get what we deserve and our children will spit on our grave for it.
I think anyone in the audience can bring suit. The right to "Hear" what someone is saying is covered under the First Amendment. I forget the complete Supremem Court cite...Va. Pharmacy v. something.
The PC people that silence the patriots who speak about the Constitution will wish they hadn't once those onstitutional rights have been stripped. It's coming.
Fine, "forum". Happy now?
I am not kidding this time... People need to be horsewhipped over this crap.
it's not just public schools. There is a very big push to turn Texas back into a blue state. Many parts of it already are. I lived in San Antonio for 6 years and honestly am happy to be gone (except for missing fabulous TexMex) Castro is doing his best to turn the city of the Alamo into a liberal mecca of dependency that can be counted on for democratic votes.
Would have been way cool if somebody in the crowd tossed him a big honking bullhorn megaphone.
Amen. We have allowed the left to define the debate for far too long. They have been far to successful in overreaching and seeing us meet them "midway."
Amen, Johnny.
If he had wanted to speak on diversity or tolerance then I'm sure he would have been praised by school officials and the volume on the mic turned up.
If I were him I would have used the opportunity to talk much much louder after they turned the mic off to show how what they were doing is precisely what the Constitution forbids.
The government cannot hand someone a mic and then turn it off based on content or viewpoint discrimination.
I'm sick of the "rules are rules" crowd. No! The Constitution IS THE RULES when it comes to government conduct towards the citizens that its power is derived from. Screw these people! I would sue their ass in a heartbeat if they did this to my son.
Only if he went off in such a way as to breech the peace or other unprotected "speech" should they be able to do this.
Yeah, because rules are more important than principles.
In the sixties "they" were afraid of the Abbie Hoffman's and the black raised fist salute ... today, it is conceivable Achmed calling for the triggering of the bombs that are under the gowns.
But in fairness to your comment .. I would like all speeches to be whqatever the valedictorian wants to say ... he/she didn't GET to be Valedictorian by being a radical and stupid.
Well so much for Texas being the greatest state to move to.
Any well run place (usually leaning right) will be prosperous, drawing in many from the poorly run places (i.e. California) who hope to do well...problem is, the newcomers bring in their old style politics (which caused the problem in the first place), infecting the new place with the old crap.
Don't mess with Texas.
Obviously the school powers that be understand neither the Constitution nor its First Amendment.
Went to my brothers college grad and remember the speaker glorifying liberalism...guess that's the only speech ok in academia. A student can't mention how God and the Constitution influenced life.
Well said.
Pinciples trump "rules"'every time.
The ONLY way to abolish PC group think is to SPEAK AGAINST IT AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY!
> What surprises me most is that this happened in Texas!
Why are you surprised?
The government school collective is run by the same machine virtually throughout the country.
With notably few exceptions, the teachers have been thoroughly indoctrinated in the collectivist statist worldview.
Almost all school collectives are run by the same unions.
Fedzilla's Department of Education distributes money and regulations to all school collectives throughout the country.
You see, the "public school" has become the Bus Ministry of the State Church of Humanism.
The "public school", including the "charter school", is BY FAR, the largest, most expensive, most subversive, and most destructive entitlement program in the country.
The "public school" is better understood as the "government school collective".
It is silly to imagine that you can fix the public schools, because the very concept itself is collectivist.
It is hypocritical to submit your children to an authority with whom you fundamentally disagree. Children do not trust hypocrites, so this will undermine your own authority, let alone influence, with your children.
Any child that comes out of the government school collective with their moral compass and common sense intact does so in spite of the government school indoctrination, not because of it.
To understand the content and compass of modern education, see ...
If you want to win the culture war, have lots of children (see my tagline) and homeschool them or form your own school cooperative with your church or synagogue and like-minded friends and relatives.
Nobody loves your children more than you do.
Nobody can teach your children better than you can.
Nobody knows your children better than you do.
Your children would love nothing better than to be taught by you, if you start doing so before they are corrupted by the government school collective.
If you have children, make whatever sacrifices you must to get them out of the public schools.
Especially not with your own children.
And DO NOT TAKE GOVERNMENT "EDUCATION" MONEY!
He that pays the piper calls the tune, and that's especially true for any government entitlement program.
This gets back to the old statement that "all politics is local." This, apparently more ominously, translates to "all problems with Freedom is local."
What really needs to happen to effect meaningful change, what really needs to happen I cannot say here.
Some rules don't deserve to be followed just like unlawful orders.
Sometimes no rules deserve to be followed.
"however, he was fully aware of the schools rules and decided to shirk them. For his sake, I hope he learns to abide by rules more closely at Annapolis."
I hope he continues to revere the Constitution, and say "to hell with the so-called 'rules' " when he gets to Annapolis.
Rules like this are for communists and tyrants. The Constitution is for free men. Silencing speakers is for wimps, p*ssies, and the LGBT crowd. Sounds like they were ready for him. Also sounds like you'd fit right in at that High School - maybe as a hall monitor. Grow a pair.
What do you expect in Texas?
Hmmm. This doesn't appear all that straight forward. The school officials may be trying to enforce some level of decorum considering the audience may have family members including younger children as well as parents. Can you imagine someone launching into a tirade of obscenities just for the hell of it? Would the speech this young man gave have been approved if he had submitted it? Was the speech censored because of the topic or because he did not follow rules that may actually be reasonable considering the venue?
I wouldn't be so hasty to condemn the school officials since there are too many unknowns and too much speculation about motives.
The "follow the rules" days are over my FRiend. We are now engaged in a war to try to save the Constitution. We need young men and women who are willing to put their lives, their careers, their future on the line to battle the forces of evil which are bent on destroying this nation.
I do not believe any valedictorian should be submitting their speech to the government for "approval". Not in this poisoned atmosphere.
They can shut off his mike, but he earned the right to speak his own mind.
We are at war my FRiend. The time for blindly following the rules is over. Either we fight with all the tools at our disposal or we surrender.
There is an effort in Texas don't kid yourself. If Texas goes blue . . .

Closing the print security gap - The market landscape for print security
Today, many organisations continue to rely on printing to support business processes, particularly in the public sector, finance industry and legal profession.

Rated 4.5 out of 5�by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by mikkp20 BLOODSPORT STAND Serious Treestand. Change sets quickly and quietly. Bought the new four piece outfitter sticks with stand. Love the setup and can take stand in and out to prevent theft. Best stand ive owned. December 7, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by matthews fan Great stand. This stand has a lot of great features. You can place it in trees that would otherwise not work with other stands. This is because of the adjustable seat and platform. It is lightweight and the seat is thick and comfortable. The cam rope feature makes this ideal for packing in and out if you prefer not to leave your investment hanging in a tree for some rogue to steal. Although a little pricier than other brands, Muddy seems like they listen to hunters needs and deliver! January 31, 2013
