The sun's out and the beach is beckoning, so it's time to throw on some shorts and head to the airport. But what gadgets should you take along? You'll want a camera, of course - but what about a satnav, a music player, an e-book reader (primed with a guide to your destination) or even a laptop?
The following article details some of the lightest, cleverest and most useful gadgets worth a space in your luggage.
Planning your trip
One of the most enjoyable aspects of going on holiday is deciding where to go and where to stay. Rather than take a travel agent's word for it, you can use sites such as TripAdvisor.co.uk to get other travellers' opinions on the best destinations.
If you're looking for inspiration for where to go, BestTripChoices.com uses a fun questionnaire to suggest suitable destinations based on your personality. Triporati.com, TravelMuse.com and Tripbase.com, meanwhile, suggest locations based on your interests.
Flights and accommodation
Many sites are devoted to getting you the best deal on a flight. LastMinute.com, Expedia.co.uk, eBookers.com, CheapFlights.co.uk and JustTheFlight.co.uk are among the best known. Some offer more comprehensive searches than others, so check the range of airlines covered by each site before you begin.
When it comes to booking hotels, LateRooms.com and Hotels.com help you to find and book accommodation in hundreds of cities worldwide. Such websites can narrow down searches based on price or star rating, and provide local maps to pinpoint the hotel.
It's worth checking out the hotel on TripAdvisor before you book your stay there. Here, you can read honest reviews by customers who have stayed there previously.
Where to go
Once you've booked a trip, you'll want to check out the locale. Google Maps is an excellent aid here, particularly if your chosen area is also covered by Google Street View. Plenty of detail is also available at streetmap.co.uk and Microsoft Bing Maps.
For suggestions of restaurants and attractions, try PlanetEye.com. This offers colour-coded, geo-tagged Microsoft Virtual Earth maps and photographs and reviews of restaurants, tourist attractions and activities in your chosen location. TripAdvisor and Expedia are worth visiting, too.
Keeping track
You'll need to keep track of all your different booking confirmations to save them being mislaid. A folder full of printouts is one option, but Gmail and other webmail clients offer a handy place to store your various web receipts - you can save them in PDF form and even store the attachments separately.
Forward your flight, hotel and other booking confirmations to TripIt.com once you've registered and the website will create a master itinerary. You can then customise this with maps, weather information, photos and walking or driving directions.
WorldMate.com offers the same function, but does so from your BlackBerry, Nokia or Windows Mobile handset. The free version lets you export confirmations and other travel information from an email into the application, and then create itineraries that can be accessed while you're away. Other useful tools include a currency convertor, weather forecasts and a global clock.
Upgrading your membership to 'Gold' status (from $29 - around £18 - but depends on your particular handset), lets you access real-time flight information from your mobile phone, so you can keep a close eye on whether your flight is delayed.

Destination anywhere
One of the most immediately useful items to take on holiday is a travel guide. If you're driving from place to place and travelling for more than a day or two, it'll probably be worth getting hold of a satnav or buying additional maps for your existing device. Two of the latest are reviewed here. Click here for more satnav reviews.
Remember to plug your satnav into your PC before you go, log into the manufacturer's online portal and update the maps. You may also be able to download new safety-camera locations for where you'll be travelling, along with the most current points of interest.
If you're a smartphone owner, you may be able to take advantage of a trial version of a turn-by-turn navigation service that will see you through the duration of your holiday – although you may then decide that having the TomTom or CoPilot service installed on your phone is worth the extra £5 or so monthly subscription. The PayOnce BlackBerry Pearl comes with a 30-day trial of the Telenav service as well as BlackBerry Maps, for example. The freshly updated iPhone 3G S offers real-time navigation too, as do many Nokia, HTC and other handsets.
Smartphones are particularly handy because you don't need to carry two devices, and they even let you surf the web. It's easy to load them up with travel information, too.
Look out for hotel and restaurant reviews and details of attractions that are worth visiting. If you research the destination in advance and store details of the places you want to go, they'll be easy to retrieve when you're there.

Summertime blues
Even if you aren't planning an overseas escape this summer, there's plenty of gadgetry that will allow you to work outside or while away the long lazy days in the sunshine.
Keeping it light
If you want to have a laptop with you when you make a break for the sun, it makes sense for it to be as light and compact as possible. For the ultimate in portability and connectivity, you can't go far wrong with a netbook – a robust type of laptop that weighs around 1kg and has a long battery life and sub-£300 price tag. The down side is its limited processing power.
The best known range is the Asus Eee PC, of which around eight versions can be bought. Based around Intel's low-power Atom processor, the Eee PC comes with built-in Wi-Fi and is designed for basic tasks such as web surfing and emailing. Conveniently, it has both a webcam for ad-hoc web calls home and a media card slot so you can back up the photos you take of your trip. If you need to keep costs really low, a model that runs on Linux rather than Windows can be had for less than £200. Most consumers prefer the familiarity of Windows, however.
Acer, MSI, Dell and Sony all offer similarly specced laptops to Asus' range. All offer dainty proportions, and come with Wi-Fi and a card reader to back up your photos – a definite must for inveterate snappers, since you can free up SD Card space.
If you need something a little more powerful, Toshiba's £319 NB200 is one of the first netbooks to feature Intel's Atom N20 processor. The NB200 has a 10.1in display with an LED backlight, a 160GB hard drive and a 3D accelerometer monitoring system to protect the hard-disk drive from knocks, shocks and vibrations. More information can be found here.
Asus itself has upped the ante with the superior Eee PC 1008HA (aka the Seashell). Asus Eee PC 1008HA netbook review.
The lightest laptops of all, however, are those that replace spinning hard disks with solid-state disks (SSD). Flash memory has no internal moving parts, which means such drives are also less fragile than traditional hard drives.
Music and movement
It might be fun once you're there, but the process of getting to your holiday destination can be time-consuming and downright boring. The Sony Clip and the Apple iPod shuffle are ideal music players if space is a prime concern.
If you'd prefer a media player with plenty of memory and the ability to select the album or musical genre that fits your mood, you might want to look at Sony's brand-new X-series Walkman, which has a 3in (432x240) touchscreen display and can provide video playback as well as music. The 16GB model costs £179 inc VAT.
Philips GoGear Opus players are also a good buy. Available in 8GB and 16GB capacities, they are among the few portable players to work with BBC iPlayer downloads and the iTunes Store, as well as podcasts, Audible e-books and music-rental services such as Napster To Go.
The £99 8GB GoGear Opus has a 2.8in colour screen and plays video at 30fps. It even has an FM radio.
Of the Apple iPod options, we think the Apple iPod touch is the best choice. It offers a 3.5in (480x320) multitouch widescreen on which to enjoy videos including YouTube clips, for which there's one-click access. Its Wi-Fi connectivity means you can surf the web in blazing sunshine. Available in 8GB, 16GB and 32GB capacities, prices start at £219 inc VAT.

Hear my voice
If you like to be surrounded by sound but don't fancy plugging in a pair of headphones, some portable or outdoor speakers may suit. If you're simply enjoying summer barbecues and outdoor soirees chez vous, you can get some powerful outdoor speakers such as Ion's Block Rockers or some wireless ones that allow you to enjoy the music stored on your PC or wireless home music setup. The gear4 Duo is a good option and able to run off the mains or from its batteries.
Alternatively, you can opt for DAB radio, perhaps keeping battery use to a minimum with a solar-powered model such as the Roberts Radio SolarDAB. This radio has a solar panel on its top and you can attach an MP3 player for audio playback through the radio's speakers. Fully charged, the SolarDAB lasts for up to 17 hrs between charges.
But if you don't trust the weather of the country you're visiting, an eco-friendly wind-up AM/FM radio that can charge your mobile phone and doubles as a torch may be just the thing. The Mini Eco Radio was designed by Trevor Bayliss and gives up to 20 mins of listening.
For truly portable DAB entertainment, on the other hand, try Pure's DAB1500 or Pure Move radios.
A cheaper alternative is to get travel speakers for your MP3 player. The 7.5W Voix PYT travel speaker is compatible with the Apple iPhone 3G and Apple iPhone 3GS, iPod touch and third- and fourth-generation iPod nano. Measuring 170x170mm, the slimline speaker costs £34 and surrounds your portable player on all four sides. A stand on the back allows you to position the iPod or iPhone vertically or horizontally for viewing video or photos or use as a music player.
Logitech and Creative also do a good line in quality travel speakers. However, if you're keeping the gadgetry to a minimum, you're just as likely to be using your Nokia 8700 Comes With Music phone or a music-centric Sony Ericsson handset. Both come with excellent earphones. Depending on where you buy your phone, you may get portable speakers as part of the deal.
For example, the Sony Ericsson W395 has built-in stereo speakers and an FM radio and comes bundled with Sony HPM-64 earphones. A 1GB memory card can be used for storing a vast amount of music, while a TrackID feature lets you identify songs you've heard and liked and then purchase them through Sony's PlayNow music store.
All charged up: solar-powered batteries
With all this gadgetry to carry with you, it's all too easy to leave behind the chargers needed to keep them all running – little wonder, since each device seems to require a different connection. Many devices can be recharged overnight using the USB port on a laptop, but that's no good if you're going somewhere remote with no mains to plug your laptop into or if you need to travel really light.
Festival goers and those heading somewhere really sunny should consider packing a Solio H1000 charger ($79, around £48; solio.com) or a Powermonkey eXplorer (£64 inc VAT; powertraveller.com). Both come with attachments for a range of gadgetry, including all the big mobile phone brands, MP3 players, digital cameras, the PlayStation Portable and so on.
Powermonkey's eXplorer comes primed with 60 percent of its full charge. You can then gather additional charge using the power of the sun. The solar panel is hidden inside the device, which flips open when you need to catch some rays and stashes away neatly when you're on the move.

Snap to it: digital cameras and camcorders
Even if you take no other gadgetry with you, you'll want a camera handy to snap amazing landscapes and landmarks or your friends' amazing japes. With this in mind, take a look at our huge range of digital camera reviews. One that you may wish to particularly bear in mind is the a waterproof Canon PowerShot D10.
For complete control over your photos, you'll want a camera that offers in-depth manual adjustment and supports RAW file formats – the latter allows you to make comprehensive edits in a photo editor and doesn't lose quality by compressing images.
The average digital SLR camera can capture around 12Mp of detail, which is overkill for most situations but superb if you intend to create large prints from your photos. Don't forget to pack a tripod, though: even one as small as the £15 Gorillapod will help improve your shots immensely.
Fans of digital SLRs and the FourThirds standard should check out new compacts that use a smaller lens version of the same technology. Panasonic and Olympus now have Micro FourThirds compact cameras – the Panasonic G1 is a superb, ruggedised 'bridge' camera, while we review the Olympus EP-1 here.
Digital photography advice and reviews
A camera for everyone
It's tricky to recommend one camera above all others, as everyone's photographic needs are different. If you want to keep things simple (and inexpensive) then you won't go far wrong with a point-and-shoot model such as the Canon PowerShot A590 IS, the Pentax Optio M60 or the Fujifilm Z20FD. These three models come with plenty of scene modes, plus face detection, image stabilisation and the ability to take panoramic shots and stitch them together.
The Canon is unusual in that it uses non-rechargeable AA batteries – useful if you're going somewhere remote and aren't likely to have ready access to electrical sockets. Most lithium-ion models should operate for at least 100 shots before needing a recharge and some are certified by CIPA for 200 or 300 shots. However, Casio claims to have come up with a camera battery that lasts for 1,000 shots.

Shooting memories
If you want to take video as well as photos, you've probably already read our round-up of low-cost camcorders from last issue. As well as models that use the ageing MiniDV format, there are hard disk-based camcorders, ones that record to mini DVD or Blu-ray Disc and others that record to flash memory. If you're shooting something special, you might want to record in HD – the amount of detail and quality of the images will be superior to standard-definition.
If you need to conserve luggage space, however, you may want to go for a slimline flash-based model. The trail for these was blazed by the bestselling Flip – a lightweight device about the size of a mobile phone. Since this model came out two years ago, similar models have been launched by the likes of Creative, Sony and Kodak.
The Flip models weigh less than 100g, have built-in memory and connect directly to a PC to download footage. The Kodak Zx1 and Zi6 and the Sony Webbie, meanwhile, have removable memory in the form of SD Card and MemoryStick Pro Duo respectively.
Many users find the upright design and limited zoom restrictive, however – a charge also levelled at cameraphones, many of which allow you to take video footage too.
A better bet may be to go for a hybrid camera and camcorder – an idea forged by Sanyo in its Xacti models. We were mighty impressed with the Sanyo Xacti HD2000 and by the superb Panasonic SDR-S26 – our Best Buy camcorder. In common with the Xacti range, the Panasonic has separate photo and video buttons so you don't need to remember to turn a dial to switch modes.
It's also worth noting that camera manufacturers are beginning to add better video-capture capabilities to compacts – the Sony W290 is a good example. It can capture HD video and then upload it straight to YouTube.
Sony also makes a Bluetooth dongle that can be used to add geographical information to your shots as you take them – ideal for plotting them on a map on your return.

Running 32-bit and 64-bit snap-ins in Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP Professional operating systems
Updated: January 21, 2005
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
Running 32-bit and 64-bit snap-ins in Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP Professional operating systems
The 64-bit versions of the Microsoft® Windows°Server™°2003 and Microsoft® Windows®°XP Professional operating systems can run both the 32-bit Microsoft Management Console (MMC32) and the 64-bit MMC (MMC64). MMC32 can run only 32-bit snap-ins, and MMC64 can run only 64-bit snap-ins. However, some snap-ins are available in both 32-bit and 64-bit form. A snap-in is considered available in 64-bit form if it defined by an HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\snap-in clsid\InprocServer32 key in the registry, where snap-in clsid is the registered CLSID for the snap-in.
This topic describes how to determine and control which version of MMC is run in 64-bit versions of Windows operating systems.
Start-up considerations if /32 or /64 is specified
MMC can be run from the command line by using a command such as the following that includes a console file name:
%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\ username \Start Menu\programs\Administrative Tools\myconsole.msc
On the 64-bit version of a Windows operating system, you can include one of the following command-line parameters:
- /32
- Specifies MMC32.
- /64
- Specifies MMC64. This is the default on the 64-bit version of a Windows operating system.
If both of these command-line parameters are used, the last one on the command line takes effect. MMC64 yields transparently to MMC32 if certain conditions are met, as described in the following section.
Start-up considerations if a console file is specified
If the command for running MMC does not contain a /32 or /64 parameter, but does contain a console file name, MMC64 examines the console file before determining which version to run. The decision sequence is as follows:
If all snap-ins in the console are available in 64-bit form, MMC64 is used.
If all snap-ins in the console are available in 32-bit form and some are not available in 64-bit form, MMC32 is used. (MMC64 starts MMC32, and then MMC64 terminates.)
If some of the snap-ins are available only in 64-bit form and others are available only in 32-bit form, the version of MMC that can run the majority of the snap-ins is used. The remaining snap-ins are not loaded.
For example, if a console contains three snap-ins that are available only in 32-bit form and two snap-ins that are available only in 64-bit form, MMC32 is used and only the three 32-bit snap-ins appear when the console is opened. The two snap-ins that are available only in 64-bit form would not be loaded.
If some of the snap-ins are available only in 64-bit form and an equal number of snap-ins are available only in 32-bit form, you will be prompted to specify which version of MMC to run. If you choose MMC64, only the 64-bit snap-ins are loaded. If you choose MMC32, only the 32-bit snap-ins are loaded.
When to specify the path to the console file
In Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 operating systems, the system files are stored in the %windir%\system32 folder. In the 64-bit versions of these operating systems, the \system32 folder contains 64-bit files, including 64-bit consoles such as eventvwr.msc. If there is also a 32-bit version of the snap-in, it resides in the %windir%\syswow64 folder. In this example, the 32-bit version of Event Viewer would be %windir%\syswow64\eventvwr.msc.
If there is both a 64-bit version of the console in the \system32 folder and a 32-bit version in the \syswow64 folder and you want to explicitly run the 32-bit version, you must bypass the MMC decision-making process by specifying both the path and the /32 command-line parameter. For example:
MMC /32 %windir%\syswow64\eventvwr.msc
Double-clicking a shortcut to a file in the \syswow64 folder is like double-clicking the file in Windows Explorer: it will run MMC without the /32 command-line parameter. To open the 32-bit consoles in the \syswow64 folder, click Start, click Run, and then type the command specifying both the path and the /32 command-line parameter, instead of using a shortcut.

No one would have guessed in 1941 that we would be attacked in such an unsportsmanlike manner as we were. No one could have visualized Pearl Harbor, either out there or in Washington. But if we had known then what we know now, we would have expected an attack in 1941.

This paper presents an online scheduling methodology for task graphs with communication edges for multiprocessor embedded systems. The proposed methodology is designed for task graphs which are dynamic in nature either due to the presence of conditional paths or due to presence of tasks whose execution times vary. We have assumed homogeneous processors with broadcast and point-to-point communication models and have presented online algorithms for them. We show that this technique adapts better to variation in task graphs at runtime and provides better schedule length compared to a static scheduling methodology. Experimental results indicate up to 21.5 percent average improvement over purely static schedulers. The effects of model parameters like number of processors, memory, and other task graph parameters on performance are investigated in this paper.

The Brothers Karamazov: A Novel in Four Parts and an Epilogue
by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
58 used & new
3.0 out of 5 stars
Tough read but rewarding classic
July 17 2004
This review is from:
The Brothers Karamazov: A Novel in Four Parts and an Epilogue (Paperback)
This was without compare the slowest, painstaking read yet for me. I am in a book club with two others and neither finished it because it is so heavy. I found enough treasures in it to keep me going, but it was tough.
The book is strong on character development and dialogue but weak on action and plot advancement. Dostoyevsky takes many opportunities to discuss philosophy, theology/spirituality and politics. Most of these treatsies are enlightening as are the characters speaking.
I have so often seen quotations taken from this book that I expected to enjoy it much more than I did. It felt like work, but I am done and glad that I read it. I'm sure you will be too if you can get through it.
The Maker's Diet

Provides good insight into health & nutrition
July 12 2004
This review is from:
The Maker's Diet (Hardcover)
Is there a divine plan for health and nutrition that we can follow? Jordan Rubin emphatically says there is in The Maker's Diet. Based on his study of scriptures, health and nutrition, and his own experience of sickness and recovery, Rubin presents a diet and overall wellness plan that he believes lines up with God's plan for healthy people.
The Maker's Diet begins with Rubin's inspiring story of his battle with severe Crohn's disease. His doctors called his case the worst they had seen. During college, Rubin went from the picture of health to death's doorstep-6'1 and weighing 111 pounds due to digestive problems related to Crohn's disease. Rather than giving up after over a year of sickness, Rubin clung to his faith in God and sought one more solution. The final try was a man who had developed a Biblically-based diet and health plan. This early version of the Maker's Diet saved Rubin's life and led to his complete recovery and healing over the course of several months. He includes astounding before and after pictures of himself that demonstrate the diet's effect.
This experience inspired Rubin to enhance the Biblically-based diet through additional research and create Garden of Life, a health and wellness company.
Rubin's in-depth analysis of the typical American's diet compared to what he considers to be a healthy, nutritious diet impacted me. In the recent weeks since reading the book, I have changed my grocery shopping and eating habits to better follow the book's general guidelines for healthy eating.
Rubin emphasizes the benefits of natural and organic foods in contrast to the nutritional deficits found in processed and engineered foods. He also compares the nutritional value of foods God included in the diet plan for the Israelites versus those excluded such as pork and shellfish.
While he makes no claims that his diet is a "cure-all," he believes "the book was inspired by God and that the practical protocol it contains can greatly improve your health."
The Maker's Diet offers a 40-day diet plan targeting not only weight loss but overall health and disease prevention. It consists of three phases. The general diet is a list of foods to enjoy and foods to avoid during the phases. For example, Rubin encourages readers to enjoy beef but to avoid pork. For all of the food, he recommends natural, organic or free range products for reasons he specifies. He includes sample meals and recipes. His diet also includes regular fasting for physical and spiritual health.
His Garden of Life company supplies many nutritional supplements and products to complement the diet. He recommends some of these but also lists various other suppliers of natural foods and products for the reader's benefit.
Some of Rubin's comments focus on healthcare and exercise. These are not Rubin's areas of expertise. His sincere though pedestrian writing about these topics offers little insight and may do a disservice to readers who follow his advice too literally. At times he seems combative toward the medical profession, as he contradicts what physicians and medical experts would advise regarding medicine, vaccinations and exercise.
He does come across as an expert in nutrition and natural remedies. Although not from mainstream or even physical universities, his advanced degrees are in naturopathic medicine, nutrition and natural therapies.
I think The Maker's Diet will benefit all readers who are willing to make changes in their diets. It offers general guidelines and specific programs to follow. Throughout the book, Rubin expresses the importance of his relationship to God and the Biblical foundation to his diet. In addition to his own miraculous story, he includes testimonies of sick people who recovered on this diet and overweight people who lost weight while on it.
Magnolia (Widescreen)

Powerful, impacting movie
June 28 2004
This review is from:
Magnolia (Widescreen) (DVD)
This is not a perfect movie but I think it comes across powerfully. The acting is superb. Tom Cruise's character suits him well and Julianne Moore plays her part so daringly that I ended up hating her and then pitying her. The other actors/actresses all do a great job. The film is fast-paced, a good thing considering it lasts about 3 hours. There is a coming together of several seemingly unrelated stories. A common thread that I picked up is the severe pains caused by personal, self-serving decisions that hurt loved ones. The message of the movie is powerful and compensates for some of what I consider the movie's shortcomings--such as the seemingly constant yelling and cursing--much usage of the f-word (just like in real life) and several scenes drowned out by loud music and an odd even of the sky raining bullfrogs, an event that plays an integral part in the climactic ends to the several stories.

Creative, pioneering adventure tale
June 8 2004
This review is from:
Robinson Crusoe (Paperback)
Not only is Robinson Crusoe an extremely well written, entertaining novel, but it was the first of its kind. Defoe's novel is fresh and intriguing today just as it was when written.
Defoe's language reveals classic appreciation of the English language that really appealed to me as a reader. His narrative accounts of adventure, shipwrecks and survival are precise and captivating. this book is made up of many short stories tied together in following the main character. The character grows and matures through his trials and becomes a man worthy of emulation.
Defoe shows brilliant insight into humanity through his writing as his main character challenges nature, savages, and his inner darkness. I enjoyed the spiritual aspects of the book. Any close look at a character such as Crusoe would be lacking if it did not follow his spiritual transformation as well as his physical changes.
There are some brief slow parts interspersed in the book that are more like speedbumps in a great tale that many have tried to imitate but failed.
Case For A Creator

The Case for a Creator is a Slam Dunk
June 7 2004
This review is from:
Case For A Creator (Hardcover)
For decades, many scientists, educators and the media have portrayed the theories of Darwinian evolution and the naturalistic formation of the universe as the products of proven science. Public schools and universities continue to teach these theories as the exclusive explanations for the formation of the universe, living creatures and human consciousness. As recently as last month a scientist believing in a Creator was scratched from an NPR program discussing creation, and teachers are still prohibited from criticizing Darwinism or favorably discussing intelligent design theories in public schools.
But is science really backing up Darwin and the spontaneous creation of the universe? Is belief in God as the Creator of all things consistent with the latest discoveries in science? Lee Strobel's latest book, The Case for a Creator, attempts to determine and explain whether the arrow of science is pointing in the direction of God or Darwin.
Strobel presents solid scientific and philosophical evidence supporting the idea that God as Creator is the only reasonable theory for creation. Strobel's case is built on information garnered from interviews with several experts in the fields of biology, physics, cosmology, astronomy, biochemistry and the human mind.
Strobel's latest book follows the patterns of his previous books, The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith. In all three books Strobel creates a narrative of investigative journalism delving into the mysteries in question.
The Case for a Creator begins with Strobel providing an introduction to the conflict between theories of Darwinian evolution and intelligent design. He gives his own history of buying into the godless theories of creation hook, line and sinker during his years in high school and college. It was his faith in these theories that led him to accept atheism as a reasonable approach to life. His later investigations into the evidence for Christ and faith led him to reject atheism and to accept Christ as Lord and Savior.
The premise for this book is found in a quote by Stephen Meyer, Ph. D, one of the experts interviewed by Strobel. He says, "Science and faith are not at war. When scientific evidence and biblical teaching are correctly interpreted, they can and do support each other. I'd say to anyone who doubts that: investigate the evidence yourself."
The Case for a Creator invites readers to investigate the evidence. Strobel lays it out for you in as readable a manner as I think possible.
Critics claim that Strobel sets the table in favor of a Creator by interviewing only experts who believe in the Creator rather than other theories. It is true that he does not interview any atheistic scientists, but he uses many of their arguments to query the experts he interviews.
In fact, he regular quotes Darwin and his supporters. He quotes several other opposing scientists such as Stephen Hawking and Stephen Jay Gould. Strobel presents many of the theories opposing theism. What becomes clear while reading this book is that many educators and researchers are committed to keeping God out of the equation at all costs, even at the cost of clinging to outdated and imaginative theories of creation.
Strobel gives his readers plentiful ammunition to attack the theories espoused by the evolutionists and atheists in any arena. As he shows, the holes in atheistic theories require much more faith to fill than is required to believe that an intelligent God created all things according to Biblical truths.

Enjoyable--Best "Guy" Movie in a While
May 12 2004
This review is from:
The Rundown (Widescreen) (Bilingual) (DVD)
I had delayed watching Rundown because I assumed it would be poorly scripted with less than adequate actors. I finally got it when my dad and I wanted to watch a tough entertaining movie. We were definitely satisfied with Rundown. The Rock comes through solidly as an action figure--tough guy. His moves are good and his acting passes. The script is entertaning. Christopher Walken fills a gap lacking in many action movies. His character is ruthless but witty. The combination of actors and actresses gives a good balance, and the story is positive. If you are looking for a good action movie, check out Rundown.

Excellent Biography of the Man, St. Patrick.
May 11 2004
This review is from:
St. Patrick of Ireland: A Biography (Hardcover)
Although the holiday bearing his name has become associated with legend and myth, St. Patrick, the man, lived such a life that warrants admiration and commendation from Christians everywhere. The man behind the myths exemplifies the Christian life of sacrifice, reliance on God, love and passion for souls, and unfoundering hope in eternal life through Jesus Christ.
Philip Freeman's book St. Patrick of Ireland presents the life and times of St. Patrick. Patrick's story is inspiring and astonishing. It reads like an addition to the Book of Acts in the Bible.
Patrick was born in Britain in the late fourth century to an aristocratic family. Irish marauders kidnapped him from his home when he was 15 years old and took him as a slave to Ireland. He labored endlessly for six years before escaping and returning to Britain and his family.
Patrick had atheistic beliefs when kidnapped, but during the course of his slavery he was transformed into a devout Christian, burning with love for Christ. After several years of religious study, Patrick willingly journeyed back to Ireland on a mission to share the message of salvation with a godless people known for their barbarianism and paganism which he had experienced first hand.
Freeman tells the story of Patrick's life from information garnered from the two writings left by Patrick. These are two letters Patrick wrote from Ireland to Britain that relate significant events of his ministry and life in simple, honest language. Freeman also references other historical texts and archeological discoveries to explain the culture of Patrick's world.
Freeman displays his expertise in Irish history by offering the reader a comprehensive picture of the cultures in which Patrick lived. Freeman is a professor of Classics at Washington University in St. Louis and earned his Ph. D. in Classical Philology and Celtic Studies from Harvard University. His expertise in Irish history is apparent by his writing. He adroitly fills in many of the blanks concerning Patrick's life.
This biography illustrates the ordeals and sufferings of Patrick while a slave and while a missionary in Ireland, as well as highlighting his amazing accomplishments. At every turn Patrick faced opposition from Satan and from men. Freeman's writing reveals Patrick's closeness to God by emphasizing portions of Patrick's two letters that Freeman interpreted and included in full in this book.
Through Patrick's own words, we see his enthusiasm and love for the Irish. His words are reminiscent of Paul's writings to the Thessalonians and Philippians. They are the words of a shepherd about and to his sheep.
In his letter of confession, Patrick writes of his compulsion to preach to the Irish, "I must proclaim my good news, I must pay God back in some way for all that he has done for me here on earth and what he will do in eternity-blessings no one can even imagine...The love of Christ carried me here to be a help to these people for the rest of my life."
Freeman's biography of Patrick tells a story of transformation-the transformation of a selfish boy to a Christian man and the transformation of a pagan people to a people brimming with love for Christ. This story will change your perspective of the Christian life and will give you a reason to celebrate St. Patrick's Day as a day of devotion to God.

Everything You Hope for in a Novel--Ranks with the Best
April 21 2004
This review is from:
Purple Sun: An epic tale of war and redemption (Paperback)
Lawrence McAuliffe has written an entertaining, creative and thought-provoking novel. His story consists of all of the ingredients that I think readers desire in fiction. He writes eloquently, even exquisitely at times. He uses imagery and descriptions that will make you stop to re-read lines several times to savor them. He superbly develops diverse characters: a southern-black couple--the man a Vietnam War Veteran, a Wyoming newspaper editor, a Vietnam Veteran freelance writer/loner, a Vietnamese woman, an ex Vietcong soldier, Buddhist monks, and an American soldier searching for a connection to God-all true to life, dead-on accurate portrayals.
The story is about war, life, death, redemption, reconciliation, remembering and relationships with God and others. McAuliffe skillfully crafts the events so that they stir the reader's imagination and lead to variable interpretations and insights. He doesn't just tell a story; he presents episodes of life, drawing the reader into the circumstances. As he was a soldier and chaplain in the war, he writes with the experience of action and the wisdom of a spiritual mentor.
This book succeeds at combining fiction with spirituality, something many books try and fail to do. Although shorter in length, Purple Sun is written in the classic tradition of Les Miserables by Hugo and Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky, and A Farewell to Arms by Hemingway, and it reminds me of A Separate Peace by John Knowles, also a story focusing on relationships before a backdrop of war.
As soon as I finished it, I thought of several people to share it with right away. I think you will appreciate the author's honest, humble approach to writing about serious issues without being overly serious. This book will definitely speak to you; only you can find out what it will say to you.
Dont Waste Your Life

Inspiring book on livng a passionate Christian life
April 9 2004
This review is from:
Dont Waste Your Life (Paperback)
Anytime you need a spark in your passion for Christ, a John Piper book is a dependable igniter. Don't Waste Your Life targets Christians desiring to live a meaningful life that produces lasting fruit.
Piper is a prodigious Christian writer who has authored more than twenty books. He pastors Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis. I have read several of his books, and he continually offers solid, refreshing Christian teaching.
In Don't Waste Your Life, Piper tells the reader about his personal discovery of the single passion worth pursuing in life. He writes, "It was not always plain to me that pursuing God's glory would be virtually the same as pursuing my joy. Now I see that millions of people waste their lives because they think these paths are two and not one."
He describes a typical married couple working through life to accumulate wealth so that they can retire and leisurely collect seashells in Florida. He calls this course of life a waste. Any life that treasures anything above Christ is a tragedy, writes Piper.
According to Piper, we were created for more than merely providing for a family and trying to live a good life. For Christians, Piper writes of a cause that is paramount to all others.
He encourages us to consider the cause of Christ, the greatest king who ever lived. He writes, "The greatest cause in the world is joyfully rescuing people from hell, meeting their earthly needs, making them glad in God, and doing it with a kind, serious pleasure that makes Christ look like the treasure he is."
Piper avoids rules, formulas and steps to living a fruitful live. He proposes becoming single-minded in possessing a passion for Christ and for glorifying him above all else in our lives. As we do this continually, we are sure to live satisfying, fruitful lives, says Piper.
Piper accomplishes more than covering the basics of living the Christian life. Using personal stories, quotes from other writers, and many scriptures, he emphasizes the values of Christ and his calling upon our lives.
Piper summarizes his view of Christ's calling upon our lives, "God seldom calls us to an easier life, but always calls us to know more of him and drink more deeply of his sustaining grace."
The book consists of ten chapters with each chapter having several sections. A theme that runs through the book is the virtue of taking risks in life for the glory of Christ. Piper emphasizes courage as characteristic to the Christian-courage to take steps of faith, to risk losing life to gain glory for the name of Jesus.
He writes, "There can be no weary resignation, no cowardly retreat, and no merciless contentment among Christ's people while he is disowned among thousands of unreached peoples."
Piper calls Christians to arms in a battle that we can join no matter who we are or where we are. We can advance Christ's kingdom in the workplace or on the missions field. If we become passionate about living for Him, we will experience his passionate joy and avoid wasting our lives.
Don't Waste Your Life succeeds in creating passion and purpose in the reader. Piper concludes the book with a prayer that will help the reader communicate the desires of his or her heart to God.
Ripley's Game [Import]

Thrilling, suspenseful movie
April 2 2004
This review is from:
Ripley's Game [Import] (VHS Tape)
I enjoyed this movie. It reminds me of Hannibal with Anthony Hopkins. John Malkovich perfectly plays Tom Ripley. He is the evil protagonist that you end up rooting for. The intrigue in the movie stems from an innocent Italian husband and father being pulled into the role of assassin as part of a sick game played by Ripley.
The movie contrasts the sociopathic Ripley who easily justifies killing with a conscience-stricken picture framer who can't stomach killing others but learns to do it. The movie also shows the consequences of evil actions--that there is no such thing as getting away with it, even for the conscienceless Ripley.
The acting is superb and the plot driven at a face pace. The events are realistic and not far-fetched like so many thrillers recently.
With a main character like Tom Ripley, no one is safe in the movie. He is cast as very much like Hannibal Lector--the refined psychopath.

text: Taxes A Hedge Fund Buying Up Huber Heights? WYSO's Lewis Wallace Talks to Bloomberg Reporters By Lewis Wallace • Oct 24, 2013 WYSO/Lewis Wallace A story in Bloomberg earlier this week found that hedge fund Magnetar has bought up a significant chunk of the rental stock in Montgomery County's Huber Heights—and then requested a major reduction in those properties' values. That reduction, if approved, could affect the city's taxes and levies. Widener Introduces Bill to Give Medicaid Expansion Savings to Taxpayers By Jo Ingles (Ohio Public Radio) • Oct 23, 2013 One of the Republican Senators who voted to allow the state to accept two and a half billion federal dollars for Medicaid expansion has introduced a bill to give Ohioans a tax break. The legislation is designed to capture savings in state government and give that money back to Ohio taxpayers. Miami Valley School Districts Seek Levy Funding on November Ballots By Lewis Wallace • Oct 23, 2013 Openclipart/Kib School levies are among the biggest issues on the ballot in the upcoming November 5, 2013 election. Ohio schools depend on these levies as an essential funding stream, and many are facing new or additional levies that can be difficult to pass. Money for Ohio's public schools comes from three sources: federal funds, state funds, and local tax levies. "Levies then become the source really of their chief operating funds," explains Mark Smith of Cedarville University. "For most cases those local schools are very dependent upon those local property taxes." Income Taxes Go Down, Sales Taxes Go Up Statewide This Weekend By Karen Kasler (Ohio Public Radio) • Aug 30, 2013 Two big changes are coming to taxes in Ohio this weekend – the state sales tax goes up, and the state's personal income tax goes down. The income tax for individuals will drop by 8.5%, while the state sales tax increases from 5.5% to 5.75%.Tax Commissioner Joe Testa says most people won't notice the sales tax increase unless they're making major taxable purchases, such as buying cars. But he says even then it's more than a wash. Tax Revenues End Above Estimates By Andy Chow (Ohio Public Radio) • Jul 15, 2013 Ohio's economic recovery is showing up in the figures on tax revenue that state government is taking in. The final money tally from state budget year that just ended has Ohio up three percent compared to original estimates. The newly released final numbers from the budget year which ended June 30 show the state getting more money than predicted, $670 million more over the past year to be exact. That figure is about three percent more than original estimates. Business Groups Weigh Kasich's Tax Proposal By Nick Castele (Ideastream) • Mar 11, 2013 As Gov. John Kasich's budget moves through the Statehouse, lobbying groups are meeting with lawmakers, talking with the governor's office and giving testimony. Among the more controversial pieces is Kasich's proposal to cut the state's sales tax and extend it to include services, most of which are currently untaxed. For Ohio Public Radio, WCPN's Nick Castele reports business group lobbyists are weighing how to respond. Ohio's GOP Treasurer Opposes Kasich Tax Hike By Associated Press • Mar 7, 2013 A fellow Republican state official has come out against Gov. John Kasich's proposed tax increase on drillers. Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel tells a meeting of the Ohio Oil and Gas Association he believes the governor's proposal to increase the severance tax stands to scare away Ohio oil and gas investment at a critical time. Mandel's remarks Thursday mark the second time in under a month he has bucked the governor on a major policy issue. Riverside vs. State of Ohio on Tax Issue By Jerry Kenney • Feb 20, 2013 The state of Ohio wants a federal judge to dismiss the city of Riverside's lawsuit that seeks to tax civilian employees and contractors who work at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Back in 2007, the city of Riverside announced it would begin collecting taxes on civilian employees who work on the portion of Wright-Patt that falls within Riverside city limits – that's Area B. Riverside's lawsuit argues that an unconstitutional provision in Ohio's municipal income tax law prevents them from collecting taxes from those employees. Ohio Tax Plan Hits Concerts, Sports, Even Bowling By Associated Press • Feb 19, 2013 Gov. John Kasich's plan to expand Ohio's sales tax might take some of the fun out of going to concerts, high school football games and amusement parks. Kasich wants to cut the state's overall sales-tax rate while also applying the lower 5 percent tax on new items like bowling alleys, pool halls, circuses and arcade games. Admission to fairs, museums, and theme parks would come under Ohio's sales tax for the first time. So would tickets to pro, college and high school games. Budget Gurus Analyze Kasich's Second Budget Through Agreement and Argument By Karen Kasler (Ohio Public Radio) • Feb 11, 2013 Gov. John Kasich has long said Ohio needs to be competitive when it comes to taxes – it's his argument for lowering and eventually eliminating the state income tax. With both tax cuts and tax increases in it, along with the expansion of Medicaid, Kasich's second budget has generated both praise and controversy. Neil Clark was the chief financial officer for the Ohio Senate Republican Caucus in the 80s, and is an expert on budgets and taxes. He doesn't have much love for the plan to levy sales taxes on services where there were no sales taxes before. Pages« first ‹ previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 next › last »

In a post many many moons ago I was in a sort of Castlevania trance after finally playing Symphony of the Night and Rondo of Blood, now with my recently purchased DS I find that the spell has come upon me all over again. The first real Castlevania game I ever played and successfully beat was Circle of the Moon so it really is only fitting that I return. As a kid I never understood the Castlevania games, I owned Simon's Quest and the Pizza Hut downtown had an arcade machine that played the original Castlevania but still I would play the games for a little bit of time and end up stopping due to lack of interest. It wasn't until the Metroidvania gameplay style was introduced to me that I finally enjoyed the games, something about the continuous world, the leveling, and the equipment clicked with me and I couldn't stop playing. Also at this point it should be noted that I'm a sucker for games with a snails pace for innovation, I don't quite know why that is but hand me the next Mega Man, Castlevania, or Dragon Quest and I always manage to find myself glued in, I guess people really do fear change. There is nothing better then when you enter the final area of these recurring games and you meet Dracula or Dr. Wily face to face for the big show down. Their repetition alone turns them into icons and defeating them becomes like defeating a legend, it always feels so rewarding to me.
In just this week alone I picked up the Harmony of Dissonance/Aria of Sorrow double pack (what a great deal), Dawn of Sorrow, and Portrait of Ruin. I'm about 38% of the map through Harmony so I would say I'm traveling at a pretty steady clip seeing as I started yesterday. I plan on picking up Order of Ecclesia after I make it through Portrait of Ruin. I'm really kind of disapointed to see that as the series progresses it starts to take on a more Anime feel and leaves behind the more Gothic aesthetic but I'm sure that isn't going to be something to hold me back from enjoying them all. It's time however for me to get back to storming the Castle.

Released: May 01st, 2005
Running Time: 116
Director: Dale Jordan
Company: Cherry Boxxx Pictures
Cast: Georgia South, Aria, Cherokee (I), Trevor Zen, Sophia Sandovar, Reno, Van Damage, Grant Michaels, Sofia (I), Dick Tracy
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
Nudge this to folks who like Cherokee. It also fits in most generic categories.
Cherokee and her little Betty Boop voice take command of this with her presence in three of the scenes. Despite occasional sloppy camerawork, which tends to be a jerky distraction when it occurs, when they are on, they are on.
Cherokee shines when her mouth is full of cock attached to Trevor Zen or Grant Michaels or when chowing down with, and on, Aria. Georgia South is also a chowhound, but her target is Dick Tracy, and their screen time together shows how two inspired performers can really work up an energetic sweat.

"Echodog. A new breed of music. I was driving thru downtown Provo and saw a crowd of people gathered on the side of the road where a band was playing to the lights of living room lamps and hanging overhead bulbs, in the front yard of a house on the corner. The group is called Echodog and I soon figured out why people were gathering on the front lawn of a rented collage flop house. This band was good! What a great and fresh blend of percussion, tempos, vocals and harmonies this group had. People were coming out of surrounding houses, stopping in their cars and filling in the gaps of the front yard. One of the best hours of music I have heard. The band had a super mix of acoustic and electric instruments paired with very talented percussion. Every note counted in their original music as well as thoughtful and provocative lyrics. I booked them right then to play our 2013 music festival in Central Utah. JRE/Birch Creek Music Festival "

Philippine Rebels: Will Kill Hostages if Attacked
Muslim rebels holding 20 hostages in the Philippines threatened on Tuesday to kill them if the army attacked, prompting the government to impose a news blackout on military operations.
The military, under orders from President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to use force against the Abu Sayyaf rebels following Sunday's abductions, said they had yet to pinpoint their location and that of the hostages, who include three Americans.
"We are at a very sensitive stage at this moment," Arroyo told a news conference, after a spokesman for the Abu Sayyaf told a radio station that the rebels would conduct "mass killing" should the military attack them.
"It is better to have a news blackout. When there is a war, you know where the priorities are, and there is a war going on in that part of the Philippines," she said.
"To the Abu Sayyaf, it's better for you to free the hostages you abducted while there is still time. Otherwise, bullets will rain on you," she added.
Arroyo, an admirer of Britain's "Iron Lady" Margaret Thatcher, asked reporters to avoid the southern islands of Basilan and Jolo -- where the rebels say they have taken the hostages -- but she said they would not be prevented from going.
Earlier, the DXRZ radio station said it had received a fresh telephone call from Abu Sabaya, a spokesman for the Abu Sayyaf who had earlier claimed responsibility for Sunday's kidnapping from a beach resort at Dos Palmas near the island of Palawan.
"We will not think twice to conduct mass killing once the military will launch offensive operations," the radio station quoted him as saying.
A senior police official said villagers had reported seeing Abu Sayyaf rebels and captives on the island of Jolo, 600 miles south of Manila, on Monday.
Lieutenant General Gregorio Camiling, chief of the military's southern command in Zamboanga, the staging point for any operations on Jolo or Basilan, could not confirm the report.
"We have no indication they landed," he told reporters. "We have already implemented contingency measures, including at possible landing sites."
The government has vowed it will take strong measures against the rebels and will not negotiate.
"Force against force. Arms against arms," Arroyo said in a nationwide broadcast on Monday. "This is what the challenge you hurled against me calls for. I will oblige you."
Abu Sabaya said in a telephone call to a local radio station on Monday that the hostages had been split into two groups and had been taken to Jolo and Basilan.
The military has said that could be a ploy to mislead authorities and that the rebels could be holed up on any one of the tiny islands which dot the area. They said the telephone call to the radio station was probably made by satellite phone.
Last year, Abu Sayyaf seized more than 40 people, including Western tourists from a resort in neighboring Malaysia, and held them for months in the remote hills of Jolo before releasing some in exchange for ransoms of up to $1 million per hostage.
Others escaped or were rescued when the government finally lost patience and ordered a military assault on rebel bases.
Much of the ransom money was used to buy sophisticated arms, powerful speedboats and other equipment, officials have said.
The rebels sailed into the Dos Palmas beach resort before dawn on Sunday and left with their victims without firing a shot -- ZAMBOANGA, Philippines (Reuters)
