Nothing anyone here says should make the decision for you. I haven't liked the series since Quake 2, and this game is a little of that and Doom III in my opinion.
I never thought I'd like it as much as I do, you have to try it is all.

I don't have any other games with this issue. I would guess it's an bug in the game or just a bad batch of disks.
Posted 11 December 2005 - 08:13 AM
Anyone had a problem with Q4 crashing during the single player level loads? I've played about 10 xbox live multiplayer matches with no problems whatsoever. Last night, decided to give singleplayer a spin, played through level 1 ok, went to loading screen for the next segment (With the scrolling green Quake background), it freezes before the next portion is loaded (Right before it would normally say Press A to continue). I have 7 360 games and this is the ONLY game that is giving me problems. I even swapped it out for a new disc at CompUSA today and the problem persists. Also tried deleting any saved data on my HDD, still crashes. Any ideas?
i had this problem as well... crash during the loads... happend maybe 2-3 times in the many hours i played. like you only in single player loading levels. I never had any problems in any of the other games i have played. I think its something with the game... its very random but always in the loading of a new level
and as for the goodness of the game... the framerate isn't tight enough for my liking. sloppy port it could have been done a lot better. look at COD2. and yeah its very doom 3 like... lots of hallways...

or maybe its just a buggy port. (it really is)
Posted 11 December 2005 - 11:27 AM
Is this game good?
I am confused gamespot give it a 6.4 and IGN give it an 8.1
but then gamespot give GUN a 6.1 and IGN give GUN a 7.9 weird
I know how you feel. Quake 4 on PC is awesome. I am such an ID fan though, I had to buy it on the 360 as well, regardless of the reviews. I haven't played it yet because I have 3 other games I'm playing right now, but I'll check it out and let you know.
I usually like gamespot reviews more than others, but I may be in disagreement with them about Q4. You are right, there are so many mixed reviews about 360 games.
We'll see...I'll post as soon as I check it out.
Posted 12 December 2005 - 03:31 AM
the framerate arghhh! and it doesnt even look that great. after seeing some of the bumpmapping and texture effects in kameo and condemened this game looks pretty rough. i really couldnt get into the game play. not hatin, just stuff that irks me after playin some gems.

Marvel Assembles an Official Title for Third "Avengers" Movie
Comic Books, Film
Fandom | When comics fan and cosplayer Erin Roberts learned she was dying from a brain tumor, at age 25, she asked that her life be celebrated with a cosplay funeral. Friends and family raised more than £3,500 to pay the expenses, including a horse and cart to bring her coffin to the church. More than 200 cosplayers attended the funeral. Her friends are also organizing a charity event to benefit the hospice where Roberts spent the last few weeks of her life. [Liverpool Echo]
Crime | The thieves who broke into the Pop Culture Company store in Houston, Texas, early Tuesday knew what they were doing: Surveillance video shows just three minutes elapsed between when they hurled a sledgehammer through the store's glass door and when they left with the cash register, the safe, a laptop and a tablet. Although the three burglars ignored the comics and toys, damage to the store is estimated between $7,000 and $8,000. The speed of the robbery has police and store owner Robert Quijano thinking these are seasoned pros. "This is obviously what they do," Quijano said. "I get up in the morning, I come to work, I sell comic books. They get up in the evening and they go out and they steal things from people." [Click2Houston]
Retailing | After nearly 30 years in business, Comic Kingdom — the oldest comic store in Sydney, Australia — will close its doors for good. Clayton Wildridge, who's worked at the store for two decades and now manages it, points the finger at digital comics: "The culture has changed. It's all internet and downloads now. The last thing I read said readership of comics was actually up, but purchases of hard copies were down. People download them instead and read them on the phone." [The Daily Telegraph]
Digital comics | With Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto appearing this week at New York Comic Con, Viz Media is launching a dedicated Naruto app that will offer a chapter of the series every day for free (each chapter will be free for seven days). The app will sync with the VizManga digital comics platform, and users who buy one or more volumes of Naruto on either digital service this month will also get a bundle that includes the original pilot chapter Kishimoto created for the series, plus editors' notes, chapter reviews and fan art. Viz is also offering discounts individual volumes throughout the month of October, with the first five volumes selling for $1.99 each. [Crunchyroll]
Publishing | DC Comics' Vertigo imprint is the first comics company to use the Wattpad "social reading app," where writers and publishers can share their work with potential readers around the world. Survivors' Club writers Lauren Beukes and Dale Halvorsen are starting things off with a list of their favorite horror movies, and Gail Simone and Holly Black are expected to check in as well. [TechCrunch]
Conventions | Journalist Tom Spurgeon and Bone creator Jeff Smith, co-organizers of Cartoon Crossroads Columbus, discuss their concept for a truly comics-focused festival. "We're almost at the point where we're treating comics as a weigh station before you make your money or impact," Spurgeon says. "Comics are solely what we do and it's solely where our efforts go. We want this to be important. We want to celebrate older cartoonists who may have fallen out favor. We want to celebrate the anniversaries of great comics. It's solely comics-focused." [Paste]
Conventions | Comiket, the world's largest comics expo, drew 550,000 attendees to its summer edition, which ended Sunday at to the Tokyo Big Sight. That's about the same number of people as the summer 2014 installment. (Note: Those figures account for the number of visits during the three-day convention to the Tokyo Big Sight, rather than individual attendees.) The winter installment of the biannual event will be held in December. [Anime News Network]
Conventions | In an attempt to avoid the sort of bad press they got last year, organizers of Rhode Island Comic Con put a clause in this year's press application requiring news organizations promise to avoid "insulting or disrespectful comments and giving a bad image of the show" in order to get press passes. That worked about as well as you would expect: The convention quickly apologized and reversed course following push-back from not only the Rhode Island Press Association but also the Rhode Island Convention Center and Dunkin' Donuts Center. [GoLocal Providence]
Libraries | Digital media distributor Midwest Tape has announced a new e-book and comics service for libraries, which will be accessed via its hoopla platform. Unlike the widely used Overdrive, the service will allow multiple checkouts for a single book, rather than limiting checkouts to one user at a time. [Publishers Weekly]
Legal | The trial began Tuesday for Iranian cartoonist Atena Farghadani on charges of spreading propaganda and insulting members of parliament, stemming from a cartoon she posted on Facebook depicting politicians as monkeys and other animals. Farghadani has been an activist in other ways as well, meeting with the families of people killed during the 2009 presidential elections. She was arrested last August and sent to prison, released, and then arrested again after posting a video online describing beatings by prison guards. She has been in solitary confinement since January and suffered a heart attack in February, after being on a hunger strike for three weeks. [The Washington Post]
Creators | Saying his job has become "too much to bear," cartoonist Renald Luzier (Luz) is leaving the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. He said he worked too hard in the aftermath of the January attack on the Charlie Hebdo offices in which 12 people, most of them his co-workers, were killed, and he did not give himself time to grieve. "I needed time but I carried on for solidarity and not to let anyone down," he said. However, the loss is taking its toll: "Each issue is torture because the others are gone." He had previously announced he would no longer draw cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad, saying it no longer interested him, and he is tired of the media attention. "We are not heroes, we have never been, we never meant to be," he said. "Everyone evokes the spirit of Charlie for anything and everything now." [The Independent]
I've heard it said more times than I can count, "Image is the new Vertigo."
In 1993, when DC Comics founded Vertigo around a handful of more adult-oriented titles, mostly featuring faded properties reimagined by British creators as horror, sci-fi and fantasy comics, the imprint was one the relatively few games in town for high-production-value genre comics for adults
That same year Image celebrated its first birthday, and although it was a sales juggernaut, the publisher was at that point little more than a vanity press for a handful of creators doing pastiches of their favorite DC and Marvel superheroes.
Creators | The Southern Poverty Law Center, which compiles an annual list of hate groups operating in the United States, said it will add artist Bosch Fawstin to its 2016 report. He drew the winning entry in the Prophet Muhammad contest in Garland, Texas, where two gunmen were killed Sunday in a foiled attack. The American Freedom Defense Initiative, which sponsored the competition, is already included on the list. Heidi Beirich of the SPLC described Fawstin's work as "virulently ugly" and "hate views." The artist, who was raised as a Muslim but is now an outspoken critic of Islam, responded, "So they want to put a cartoonist on there who doesn't act out violently? Go for it." Fawstin, creator of the "anti-jihad superhero" Pigman, also vowed to continue his work despite fears for his safety: "I understand the threat, but I'm not going to be cowed by it. I still intend to go up there and I still intend to speak out." [Reuters]
Vertigo has announced the fall release of two Neil Gaiman deluxe hardcover editions, The Sandman: Overture and Free Country: A Tale of the Children's Crusade.
The first may seem a tad optimistic, as the six-issue bimonthly miniseries by Gaiman and J.H. Williams III, which debuted in October 2013 as part of the 25th anniversary of The Sandman, has yet to release its final two chapters. Set to arrive in November, the deluxe edition will include all six issues, the gatefold from the debut issue, plus extras like pages from the Special Editions and script pages.
Publishing | Papercutz, which has had an extremely successful program of LEGO graphic novels based on the Bionicle, Ninjago and Legends of Chima properties, is losing that license to Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, which will have its own graphic novels in bookstores by the end of this year. Papercutz reveals it will continue to publish Bionicle and Ninjago through the end of this year, and Legends of Chima through mid-2016. [Publishers Weekly, ICv2]
Passings | Fred Fredericks, who drew the Mandrake the Magician comic strip from 1965 to 2013, has died. In addition to his daily newspaper work, Fredericks drew comics for Western Publishing and Marvel. [ComicMix]
As DC Entertainment continues to staff its Burbank, California, headquarters, prolific writer Jamie S. Rich announced he's been hired by Vertigo as senior editor. He began work there Wednesday.
"Lots of exciting things in the works," he wrote on Twitter. "Stay tuned."
Manga | Dark Horse has announced the September release of Astro Boy Omnibus Volume 1, an oversized collection featuring nearly 700 pages of Osamu Tezuka's most popular creation, billed as the first in a series. The news follows the recent announcement of the publisher's oversized editions of The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service. [Dark Horse]
Publishing | David Carter takes a hard look at Vertigo as part of his analysis of DC Comics' December sales. He notes that most of the series are selling poorly (under — often well under — 15,000 copies) and speculates that the reason may be that creators, even those who do work for DC, are taking their creator-owned books to Image Comics. He also thinks Vertigo's trade policy isn't working, as releasing the trades early and pricing the first one low encourages readers to skip the monthly comics — but then there's a high probability they will forget about a new series altogether. [The Beat]
The Sixth Gun co-creator Cullen Bunn is certainly no stranger to the supernatural, but for his first major Vertigo comic, he's biting into another kind of horror.
The publisher has shared with ROBOT 6 an exclusive first look at pages at Wolf Moon #2, by Bunn and Jeremy Haun. The series explores a viral werewolf disease that transfers to a different victim every full moon, marrying the conceit with a procedural detective story for a bloody addition to the Vertigo line.
Under a cover by Ryan Kelly, Wolf Moon #2 arrives on Jan. 7.

I updated to 0.6.7 today from 0.6.6. Turned the caching off, deactivated the plugin, updated to the new plugin, reactivated, then turned full caching and supercaching on. Back to normal.
I noticed then that I had some expired cache files, so I decided to delete them (and the old non-expired files) through the plugin controls just to have a fresh start. The expired regular cache files deleted fine, but the expired supercache files will not delete. I have 220 stacked up and no way to delete them via the normal method.

I want know which one is good to follow whether auto vacuum or vacuum manually. Right now we are following manually in cron jobs, but sometimes it gets struck to vaccum on particular tables. so we are thinking about the auto vacuum. does it give good performance to production server? please suggest. Lot of thanks in advance.
Autovacuum should be enough for most of the cases. If the autovacuum processes get too intrusive, or not fast enough - it's trivial to customize the settings so that it will be fine.
The only cases where manual vacuum should be used is if/when you know that what you did should be "fixed" immediately. For example - if you're doing massive updates of a table, running vaccuum between batches will make sure that the bloat in table will be limited.
Running an automatic lazy VACUUM (or simple VACUUM), ie VACUUM without the FULL parameter is something that is meant to be enabled in full production with no impact.
It is heavily recommended to run VACUUM FULL during scheduled maintenance windows.

Airmen at Schriever Air Force Base have started a 40-hour dodgeball marathon in attempt to break a world record.
The current record of 31 continuous hours of dodgeball was set in Albany, NY less than two years ago.
"I know we can do it. Everyone is real supportive, everyone has our backs," Senior Airman Sam Weaver said. "We all know it is for a good cause, for the Air Force Assistance Fund--helping out other airmen."
The game at Schriever began at midnight on March 22 and isn't scheduled to end until 4:01 p.m. on March 23.

The Netherlands is failing to vigorously pursue foreign bribery allegations and must do more to enforce its foreign bribery laws. Fourteen out of 22 foreign bribery allegations have not triggered the opening of an investigation, calling into question the Netherlands' ability and proactivity in investigating and prosecuting this crime.
The OECD Working Group on Bribery regrets that Austria has not had a conviction of bribing foreign public officials despite a number of allegations, 13 years after ratifying the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention. However, enforcement appears to be picking up, with one case being tried, two more cases soon to be tried, and four ongoing investigations.
Die OECD-Arbeitsgruppe gegen Bestechung bedauert, dass in Österreich bisher noch kein Urteil wegen der Bestechung von ausländischen Amtsträgern ergangen ist, obwohl seit der Ratifizierung des entsprechenden OECD-Übereinkommens vor 13 Jahren eine Reihe von Vorwürfen vorlag.
To mark the 15th anniversary of the signature of the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention, Mark Pieth and Huguette Labelle call on Parties to the OECD's Anti-Bribery Convention to step up enforcement of their anti-bribery laws.
Colombia will become the 40th Party to the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention on 19 January 2013.
This study focuses on the challenges that arise in providing and obtaining mutual legal assistance (MLA) in foreign bribery cases. Because these cases take place across borders, effective MLA between countries is crucial for the successful investigation, prosecution and sanctioning of this crime.
In its series of anti-bribery typology reports, the OECD applies its expertise and experience in implementing anti-bribery measures to analyses of the methods and patterns used in corruption cases.
This Working Group on Bribery consultation with the private sector and civil society focused on collective action in the fight against foreign bribery.
This book features the results of a stocktaking exercise of business integrity and anti-bribery policies for 20 countries in Africa. It is the result of a collaborative initative between OECD and the African Development Bank.
The economic crisis that started in 2007 gave rise to a crisis of legitimacy and a widespread collapse of trust in markets, in firms, and in the governance of our economies. We need to build up that trust again and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention are essential tools for fighting bribery and promoting responsible corporate behaviour.

This mustard is delicious.....full of flavor but not overpowering. It's wonderful in German potato salad, as an added flavor in sauces, and perfect on a ham sandwich. I will continue to use this mustard, replacing other brands that I've used for years.
This is my 2nd order for Alstertor Dusseldorf Mustard. This goes extremely well with all the various sausages and franks. Very distinctive taste and texture. Highly recommended for all your mustard choices. Fast shipping and excellent pricing.

Need help with turbo
Well this guy has 2 garrett gt2871 turbos he said he has never used them! He said they were for mock uP
he said he bought them 2 years ago, but never used them
The housing is rusty but from the pics the insides look newish
what should I look for?
shaft play for sure. in & out isnt too bad, but side to side is bad! if none thats best other than that maybe the seals? turbos are fairly strong pieces of machines.
agreed there
Also, gotta make sure the housing offset is correct for the SPA. Manifold. So it will stick out far enough to not touch the CFM oil separator. Then if it has a 2.5" flange for the down pipe. But probably gonna have to have the dp modified again, to fit.
What's the housing offset for the spa?
I dont remember the offset ,sorry , you can contact Comp and ask them I am sure they would tell you
You are going to have to make a new down pipe and more then likely change the pipe that hooks to the Turbo
Ugh more work to do
yeah its terrible all this custom fab work in order to have fun lol

Wines and Spirits: sectorial report reveals scale of estimated loss to Europe
The European Observatory's eighth sectorial report on the economic cost of IPR infringement, covering the economic cost of IPR infringement in the spirits and wine sector was launched earlier this week, on 26 July 2016.
In line with its mandate, the Observatory is continuing to evaluate the negative impact of counterfeiting and piracy and its consequences for legitimate businesses, governments and consumers, and ultimately society as a whole. The idea is that the results of this study, which will be followed by some other sectorial studies, pave the way towards quantification of the scope, scale and impact of infringements of intellectual property rights in the European Union.
The bottom line is that that 4.4% of legitimate sales of spirits and 2.3% of legitimate sales of wine are lost each year due to the counterfeiting of alcoholic drinks. Those lost sales are estimated to translate into 4,800 jobs directly lost across the spirits and wine sectors in the EU, as legitimate manufacturers employ fewer people than they would have done in the absence of counterfeiting.
The link to the study is now available on the Observatory website here.
The Observatory's reports are also available in French, Italian, Spanish, German and Polish.

General Court: Mad Catz v. Monster
The following summary about this "cat fight" was kindly prepared by Vlotina Liakatou, Trade Mark associate at MARQUES member Baker & McKenzie.
In Cases T‑567/15 and T-429/15 (Monster Energy Company v EUIPO & Mad Catz Interactive, Inc.), handed down on 14 July 2016, the General Court ("GC") found no likelihood of confusion between the following parties' marks:
In 2012, Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. filed EUTM applications for the figurative marks shown above for "clothing footwear and headgear". Monster Energy Company opposed both applications on the basis of its earlier registrations (also shown above) covering inter alia goods in the same Class.
The Opposition Division refused the oppositions and the Board of Appeal ("BoA") upheld its decisions. Monster Energy filed further appeals, but they were also dismissed by the General Court.
In Case T-567/15, where the EUTM Application No. 011390853 was opposed, Monster Energy claimed that the BoA had wrongly assessed the similarities between the mark applied for and its earlier mark No. 6433817, which are figurative and not composite marks (the opposition was eventually restricted to this earlier mark only). It also argued that the BoA wrongly assessed the overall impression created by these marks by stating that the mark applied for might be perceived by the relevant public as scratches, whereas the earlier mark might resemble claws. Lastly, Monster Energy criticised the BoA for finding that there was no likelihood of confusion and for failing to take into account the distinctiveness acquired by the earlier mark through its extensive use for energy drinks and clothing for extreme sports.
The GC did not concur with Monster Energy's allegations and found no likelihood of confusion in this case. After establishing that Class 25 goods were everyday goods intended for the EU average consumer and that the goods covered by the marks were either identical or similar, it went on to compare the marks at issue.
The Court agreed with the BoA's assessment of a low degree of visual similarity between the marks: although the marks were visually similar in so far as they both depicted a number of stylised lines, they differed in other respects such as the shape, colour, number and position of these lines. Contrary to what was suggested by Monster Energy, i.e. that the only perception of the marks at issue would be scratches and claws, it was held that "the mark applied for depicts a black square on which four diagonal parallel white lines are placed which might be perceived by the public as "scratches", white brush strokes or a purely abstract device, whereas the earlier mark shows three vertical parallel black shaky lines of different lengths whose upper part is broader and which, from the perspective of the relevant public, might resemble three "fingers" or "claws" or a very abstract depiction to which no specific and clear meaning can be attributed".
The fact that the perception of the earlier mark as "scratches" was not the most obvious and that the relevant public could perceive the marks at issue as abstract devices without associating them with any meaning, made them conceptually dissimilar. On this basis, Monster Energy's argument that there was at least a degree of conceptual similarity between the marks because they were liable to convey "the message of something aggressive and that something is being ripped open" could not be accepted. Regarding phonetic similarity, no phonetic comparison was possible because the marks were purely figurative.
Regarding the enhanced distinctiveness claimed by Monster Energy, the GC held that the BoA was right to find that Monster Energy's mark did not enjoy enhanced distinctiveness, since the use of the earlier mark on clothing and headgear was essentially for the purposes of sponsorship or promotion of Monster Energy's non-alcoholic beverages and energy drinks. The fact that its mark enjoyed a reputation for drinks had no relevance in relation to the reputation claim because Monster Energy had claimed reputation in relation to Class 25 goods only.
Given the low level of visual similarity between the marks, the fact that the relevant public could perceive the marks at issue as abstract devices without associating them with any meaning (and not only as scratches) and the normal (and not enhanced) distinctive character of the earlier mark, there was no risk of a likelihood of confusion.
In Case T-429/15 where the EUTM Application No. 011390846 was opposed, the GC also found no likelihood of confusion on the basis of similar reasoning. In this case, the marks were even less visually and phonetically similar given the additional elements "MAD CATZ" included in the mark applied for.

Online Business Models Infringing Intellectual Property Rights: here's the report
The EUIPO Report, Online Business Models Infringing Intellectual Property Rights, was released on 12 July 2016. What was this all about? According to the European Observatory:
"The aim of this independent research is to provide an overview of different infringing business models, assessing how they function, how they are financed, how they generate profits for their operators, what kinds of content they disseminate and how large their user bases are.
The study will provide enhanced understanding to policymakers, civil society and private businesses. At the same time, it will help to identify and better understand the range of responses necessary to tackle the challenge of large scale online IPR infringements".

General Court: Piccolomini v Piccolo
In Case T-20/15(Henkell & Co Sektkellerei v EUIPO (PICCOLOMINI), the General Court of the EU rendered a Judgment regarding the sign PICCOLO, which highlighted that the importance of proof of use in EUIPO cases is not so "small". The following summary was kindly prepared by Andy Cornforth, Trainee Solicitor at MARQUES member Baker & McKenzie.
The GC held that the BoA was correct to find that evidence submitted pursuant to Art 42(2) of the Regulation did not show genuine use of an earlier mark as a trade mark. The case concerned the registration of the mark PICCOLOMINI by Ciacci Piccolomini di Bianchini Societa Agricola ("Ciacci") which was opposed by Henkell & Co ("Henkell") on the basis of a likelihood of confusion with its earlier mark PICCOLO.
Henkell, at Ciacci's request, had provided evidence of genuine use of the PICCOLO mark, and on the basis of this its opposition was upheld. However, Ciacci appealed, and this appeal was upheld by the BoA. The BoA's reasoning was that:
The GC examined the evidence Henkell had submitted, and agreed with the BoA. Henkell had relied upon (amongst other things) a statutory declaration by its marketing director that the PICCOLO mark had been used in 20 Member States. The GC said that such a declaration could not be given the evidential weight accorded to a statement made by a third party, and that its particulars required confirmation by other evidence. The other evidence here did not provide such confirmation.
Henkell had argued that the BoA's examination of the distinctive character of the earlier mark in the context of assessing proof of genuine use was ultra vires, and that it was wrong in finding that the mark was devoid of distinctive character. The GC disagreed, saying that the BoA's examination complied with all applicable rules and case-law. It had not ruled on whether there were absolute grounds for refusal, but confined itself to a genuine use assessment. Furthermore, it had not examined the distinctive character of the earlier mark per se, but the perception of the sign in the context of its actual conditions of use as a trade mark within 42(2)
It seems relatively clear here that the use of PICCOLO could very easily be considered to be descriptive, and that its validity as a mark might at best be regarded as borderline. Though the evidence Henkell submitted as proof of genuine use may have demonstrated that the term had genuinely been in use, given its size and position in relation to "Henkell" and its comparable status in relation to other clearly descriptive terms, it did not show that the term had genuinely been in use as a trade mark.

Repute of McDonald's family of marks allows it to prevent "Mac--" prefixed marks for food/drink
The General Court of the EU held that the repute of fast food chain McDonald's trade marks makes it possible to prevent the registration, for foods or beverages, of trade marks combining the prefix 'Mac' or 'Mc' with the name of a foodstuff or beverage; (case T-518/13; Future Enterprises v EUIPO of 5 July 2016). This case is likely to strengthen the concept of a family of trade marks and includes a helpful summary of case law in this field.
A Singaporean company registered the mark for foodstuffs and beverages at OHIM (now EUIPO). American fast food company McDonald's applied to have the trade mark declared invalid on the basis of its earlier EU trade mark McDONALD'S as well as 12 other trade marks it owned for fast food restaurant services; all of which included the word elements 'Mc' or 'Mac' as prefixes. These include McFISH, McTOAST, McMUFFIN, McRIB, McFLURRY, CHICKEN McNUGGETS, McCHICKEN, EGG McMUFFIN, McFEAST, BIG MAC, PITAMAC and McDonald's.
The GC now held in McDonald's favour and invalidated the MACCOFFEE mark finding inter alia that:

Battle of the Alfredo's in General Court: what's in an Italian name?
In a true Italian fashion of family sagas over the name Alfredo which gave birth to the "famous" dish of 'fettuccine Alfredo', the EUIPO and the EU Courts ruled on a conflict between the following parties:
According to the legends of pasta, Mr. Di Lelio created in 1914 the original recipe for "fettuccine Alfredo"- uber famous abroad but not so much to Italians- to soothe his pregnant wife, which became one of the most renown dishes of his restaurant. His original restaurant in Rome is named Alfredo alla Scrofa at Via Della Scrofa, and his fame spread worldwide so much to be nicknamed Alfredo the Emperor of Noodles. Alfredo semi retired and sold his restaurant, to Mr. Mario Mozzetti which is still in business to this day. Some years later, Alfredo Di Lelio opened another restaurant nearby named Alfredo II and today dubbed Il Vero Alfredo ( the "true" or "original" Alfredo).
In 2009, Mr. Mozzetti obtained the two registrations above which were the object of invalidity actions on the basis of the Italian mark L'ORIGINALE ALFREDO filed in 2012.
The Cancellation Division and Board of Appeal upheld the invalidity action. The General Court dismissed the appeal.
Regarding the first plea, the Court confirmed that the request for proof of genuine use of the earlier mark was untimely and should be dismissed.
Regarding the second plea based on Article 8(1)b) EUTMR, the relevant public is the average Italian given the nature of the the goods and services. It is also undisputed that the goods and services covered by the contested mark and the goods and services covered by the earlier mark are identical or very similar.
Mr. Mozzetti claimed that the distinctive character of "alfredo" is weak since the use of the word common to the conflicting marks, is widespread in the area of products and services in question. First, the term "alfredo" would be related to the "fettuccine", a type of pasta, due to the existence of a dish called "fettuccine alfredo". According to a research conducted on the Google search engine , the use of "fettuccine alfredo" is generalized. Finally, numerous marks containing the term 'alfredo' are registered in countries of the European Union for services in Class 43.
However, the Court held that the list of Google search results was solely for the phrase "fettuccine alfredo" and not the term "alfredo" alone, so it did not demonstrate that this term has become widespread in the area of products and services or that it will be perceived, without the addition of "fettuccine" as referring to pasta.
Furthermore, it should be noted, as did the Board of Appeal, that the name "alfredo" is the element of the marks which the consumer will pay the most attention. Indeed, given that the name "alfredo" is placed above and it is written with letters of a size greater than that of the accompanying phrase ( "alla scrofa"), the consumer will grant him more attention. In the earlier mark, the name "alfredo" is also the element that the consumer will pay the most attention, the 'original' term is perceived as a simple adjective to qualify the name.
So, give the identity or the high similarity of the goods /services, that the earlier mark had a normal distinctive character, and the fact that the term "alfredo" present in both signs, is of a more important distinction as the other elements, there is a risk of likelihood of confusion.
Last but not least, the Board of Appeal correctly found that the coexistence of the marks in a central area of Rome could not be considered because it was not demonstrated for a significant part of Italian territory. In addition, that coexistence was alleged for restaurants and not for food products covered by the marks. Finally, the contract concluded in 1943 by the ancestors of the parties was not relevant, because the risk of confusion must be assessed in light of current factual circumstances and in particular the similarity of brands, products and services in question.
The Judgments in original version are cases T‑96/15 here and T‑97/15 here.

landlord's an idiot, i can't imagine what fool would move into that spot willing to pay $3,000 a month in rent.
By "next door space", do you mean the gorgeous empty building that corners on Pine? Say it ain't so, that place should be it's own complex of art spaces, not more condofication.
Yeah, but what's this got to do with the viaduct?
I thihnk it's the Trace Lofts that are moving in there, however, I think they are keeping the building, not knocking it down...if that makes you feel any better.
Northwest Actor's Studio, just down the block from Vogue, is facing problems with the landlord too.
OMG -- what does this mean for Barbie and Purr next DOOR!!??!!
No - the Trace is at 12th and Madison. Not sure what's going in there, but I think they are tearing the building down.
"The Vogue isn't the kind of place wealthy singles fresh from suburbia are going to want right outside their bedroom windows."
Bu - but, what are those wealthy singles fresh from suburbia going to think when they discover they've moved into an ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD full of people who go to places like The Vogue?
And whose to say at least SOME of those WSFFS wouldn't want to move into those condos precisely BECAUSE places like The Vogue exist in the neighborhood?
It's not Trace Lofts -- that's further down the street, I think.
The development planned for the Vogue block is a mixed-use condo/retail project called James Blunt Beautiful Terrace -- www.jamesbluntbeautifulterrace.biz. It's aimed at young city-dwellers who seek urban amenities with a sophisticated edge and gorgeous cheekbones.
Time for the gay & hipster community to pick up stakes and find a new rundown community they can fix up.
I vote for Tacoma!
I miss the days when people who had decided to say fuck you to society didn't complain about the neighborhoods they lived in. Suck it up and move to White Center, Erica. This "I want to be a rebel... but I still want to enjoy all the comforts of suburbia... while disdaining suburbanites who want to move into my neighborhood" crap has to end.
I lived at the Monique Lofts from 2001 to 2004, just across the street and up the block from the Vogue. I grew up in Redmond, and have lived in Seattle since 1995, during which time I lived downtown at Tower 801, on 103rd just off Aurora, in the U District, on First Hill. Lots of different neighborhoods. I never encountered a more difficult neighbor to live with than the Vogue.
During the summer, the Vogue would keep their front door open until closing, letting music at pretty much full volume out onto the block. This happened night after night, and the music was loud. This made it difficult to sleep.
"Bu - but, what are those wealthy singles fresh from suburbia going to think when they discover they've moved into an ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD full of people who go to places like The Vogue?"
Bullshit. All kinds of people live along the Pike Pine corridor. Some go to the Vogue, others Wild Rose, others to the Comet, and some to none of those establishments. The Vogue and other night club operators in mixed use neighborhoods have a legal obligation to control noise after 10 PM. The Vogue repeatedly failed to do so.
Boo hoo, poor me, I know. Still, losing sleep night after night grew pretty frustrating after a while. We moved to a quieter neighborhood.
Hey "M"--
When did wanting to continue to live and work in the neighborhood in which you've invested your life become a "fuck you" to society? I've lived and worked in the Pike/Pine for twenty years now, but the building my bar is in is about to be torn down for more fucking condos, and chances are we won't be able to find an appropriate place to move the business, due to the increasing lack of affordable spaces in the neighborhood.
I work two jobs, and my boyfriend works just as hard for us to be able to live in a rather crappy overpriced apartment in my beloved neighborhood where the rent just keeps going up and up. It's been happening for years, and I'm sure will continue to do so, but more than likely we won't be able to stay much longer.
Seattle continues to lose people who make valuable contributions to the life and culture here. Grant Cogswell? Art Chantry? Just two examples of hard working, fascinating artists driven from Seattle by its increasing yuppification.
I guess choosing a life in art and entertainment rather letting money be our driving force could be considered a fuck you to society. That's tragic.
And in defense of Ms. Barnett, I don't think pursuing a career in political journalism is a fuck you to anything. It's as noble a calling as anything else.
So, M, no fuck you to society here, just a fuck you to you.
I stopped reading at *tequila tasting* and comment on that:
It's high time tequila lost the bad rap given it by frat boys downing shot upon shot of tequila falsa.
I've hosted tastings of single malt scotches where I've slipped in a mediocre los altos añejo, and everyone thought it was a well aged Islay.
Save the cheap tequila for charo negros, find an añejo or reposado bottled in arandas (ask for a charo negro not a beso negro which is something quite a bit different though no less enjoyable), and drink it neat, no lime, no salt, no nada. It's the drink of a pueblo who know what tierra means. The french talk of terroir. The jalisciense live it.
Lo lamanto si esto es recargadatito.
Muerto a Calderon! Viva AMLO! Nos todos somos Oaxaca! Donde carajos esta mi jarrito?
Wait - the building at the corner of 12th and Pine is being turned into condos? I know, no surprise there, but DAMN. I agree with Beachhead @ #2 - I've always thought that building needed to be an arts center.
Tom @ 13 you and your three legged cat are not real.
Tom, you are stupid, and this is why: Why would someone who does not like noise move to a neighborhood with a bunch of clubs, bars, restaurants, and college campuses? You should have lived in a quieter neighborhood in the first place. Let's hope the people who move into the new condos are not like you. Unfortunately, they probably WILL complain about the noise, and then all the clubs and bars and restaurants in the neighborhood will eventually get shut down.
Tom Harpel, you are stupid, and this is why: Why would someone who does not like noise move to a neighborhood with a bunch of clubs, bars, restaurants, and college campuses? You should have lived in a quieter neighborhood in the first place. Let's hope the people who move into the new condos are not like you. Unfortunately, they probably WILL complain about the noise, and then all the clubs and bars and restaurants in the neighborhood will eventually get shut down.
Hi Stacey. I argue that it is the Vogue who is stupid for deciding to operate a business in a mixed use neighborhood that repeatedly violated noise ordinances. Why doesn't the Vogue move their club to a neighborhood where they are permitted to exceed 100db (or whatever it is) after 10 PM?
...oh, and of all the clubs in that neighborhood (Vogue, Comet, Wild Rose, at the time Bad JuJu), the Vogue was the only one with a problem containing the noise. And now I'll go away.
the vogue has always been a sleazy pit - with blow jobs and butt eating in the john and many drugged out/freaked out people on the sidewalk
good bye, no lost love
yes, go to tacoma
Actually Sam, I've had the complete opposite experience at the Vogue and go there precisely because (from this girl's perspective) it's _not_ a "sleazy pit", especially when compared to the Pioneer Square meat-markets.
According to Shawna, the Vogue recently looked around at other vacant locations close-by to rent and came up with several, at affordable rates (as low as .50/square foot). The problem was that none of the landlords are offering long-term leases. They'd love to have you rent their spaces right up until they boot you out for those condos.
Oh, and so Tom Harpel lived in the Monique lofts? As one of the lowlife Vogue trash I've often looked up across the street and wondered about those units.
Wow. Old growth wooden beams; Sub-Zero wine coolers conveniently divided between Red and White; playful 60' catwalks for extra storage space. "Safe and secure in this rooftop retreat, you're just an elevator ride away from Capitol Hill's vibrant Pike Pine Corridor." And you can buy one for, oh, under a million dollars.
Sweet. If you can afford it.
Ronski: where I lived on the third floor, units were between 500 and 1000 square feet and did not feature cat walks. It was nice, just not that nice.

Lingula (brachiopod)
Lingula is a genus of brachiopods within the class Lingulata. Lingula is known as "moule-à-queue" (tailed mussel) in New Caledonia, "bec de cane" (duck bill) along some coasts in the Indian Ocean, and "shamisen-gai" in Japan (for its likeness to the shamisen, a Japanese lute). Lingula is known to have existed possibly since the Cretaceous or at least the Tertiary. Like its relatives, it has two unadorned phosphatic valves and a long fleshy stalk. Lingula lives in burrows in barren sandy coastal seafloor and feeds by filtering detritus from the water. It can be detected by a short row of three openings through which it takes in water (sides) and expels it again (middle). In Thailand, there is limited Lingula anatina fishery, where it is known as hoi pak ped.[3]
Living fossil[edit]
Lingula has long been considered an example of a living fossil; in fact, the perceived longevity of this genus led Darwin to coin this concept. This living fossil status is now considered unjustified however. This status is based on the shape of the shell only, and it has been shown that this shape corresponds to a burrowing lifestyle, occurring in different brachiopod lineages, with different and evolving internal structures.[1]
Lingula is probably derived from the Latin word for tongue "lingua" and a diminutive suffix -ula, so small tongue. Alternatively it may be derived from the Latin word for spoon (Lingula) directly. The origin of the epithet anatina is not known, but in Latin "anatina" means "belonging to the duck", possibly due to its resemblance to a duck bill. Another possible derivation could be from the French "Anatife" (goose barnacle), for its likeness.[1]
Reassigned species[edit]
The following species, previously assigned to Lingula are now considered better placed in other genera:[4]
- L. albida = Glottidia albida
- L. alveolata = †Dignomia alveolata
- L. attenuata = †Palaeoglossa attenuata
- L. audebarti = Glottidia audebarti [1]
- L. criei = †Tomasina criei
- L. davisii = †Lingulella davisii
- L. imbituvensis = †Langella imbituvensis
- L. lesueuri = †Ectenoglossa lesueuri
- L. nebrascensis = †Trigonoglossa nebrascensis
- L. pinnaformis = †Lingulepis pinnaformis
- L. plumbea = †Monobilina plumbea
- L. polita = †Dicellomus polita
- L. semen = Glottidia semen [1]
- L. subspatulata = †Barroisella campbelli
- L. williamsana = †Lingulipora williamsana

Some governments in Southeast Asia, such as those of Thailand and Vietnam have clear policies to restore large areas of degraded land to native forest. However, knowledge needed for the success of these ambitious programmes is still inadequate, and considerable further research is required. Furthermore, very little literature is available to conservation practitioners about the restoration of tropical forests for biodiversity conservation. This paper introduces the framework species method of forest restoration, which is being developed to restore forests in Thailand. The paper examines the potential for adoption of this technique in different forest types across the Southeast Asia region, and identifies priorities for future research needed before the method can be widely implemented. These include the identification of forest types, the selection of candidate framework species, maintenance of genetic diversity, and development of methods of seed collection and germination.

What causes TMJ syndrome?
The causes of TMJ syndrome are not completely understood. Multiple factors contribute to the muscle tightness and dysfunction that characterize this condition. It is not clear whether some of these causes directly lead to TMJ syndrome or if they are a result of the disorder. Causes may include
- misalignment (malocclusion) of or trauma to the teeth or jaw,
- teeth grinding (bruxism),
- poor posture,
- stress or anxiety,
- arthritis and other inflammatory musculoskeletal disorders,
- orthodontic braces, and
- excessive gum chewing.
What are TMJ syndrome symptoms and signs?
The main symptom of TMJ syndrome is pain in the jaw joint. This joint is located just in front of the ear, and pain associated with TMJ syndrome may involve the face, eye, forehead, ear, or neck. Signs and symptoms of TMJ syndrome include the following:
- Pain or tenderness in the jaw, especially at the area of the joint
- Popping/clicking of the jaw
- Pain that feels like a toothache
- Ear pain or sounds of cracking in the ears
- Ringing or popping sounds in the ears (tinnitus) or a sense of fullness in the ears
- Headaches, including migraines
- Blurred vision
- Tight, stiff, or sore jaw or neck muscles
- Muscle spasm in the jaw
- Facial pain, mouth pain, cheek pain, or chin numbness or tingling
- Pain at the base of the tongue
- Pain, swelling, or a lump in the temple area

Hi There,
While I have been using WordPress for a while I am not a coder in any sense of the word. I can follow direction though and I'm willing to try anything.
Today I attempted to add a small block of HTML code in the Text widget, I did something wrong with the code and I received an error, Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in
I searched on this site and followed the suggestions to fix the problem, some did not work at all, so I went down the list trying new things. When I tried,
// define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
// define('DB_COLLATE', '');
I put a /* before and after the above code each line,
This did something! When I went to log into my wp-admin what came up on the screen was as though I had just installed WordPress!!!
In order to keep my users from making any changes I quickly added my blog info.
All of the files are still on my server. The question is how do I associate all the Database files?
I don't want to make a mess (I think I'm too late!) But I would appreciate some help so I can get my site back up!
Thank you.

I've googled my site name and it only comes up if I enter the name all as a single name: ie- xxxyyyzzz rather than xxx yyy zzz. the site name is indeed: xxx yyy zzz.
I'm wondering if it's due to my welcome/home page url which is xxxyyyzzz.com
And...why can't it be googled and found under ***both*** xxxyyyzzz and xxx yyy zzz?
I am currently trying to sort through site map changes to fix this, but am not sure it's the real cause....
real site is at:
FYI- I do have Google xml sitemaps and All in One Seo plugins up and running.
Also FYI- when I had the site 'under construction' sign up while building it, the site came up when googled xxx yyy zzz with an under construction sign on the description. Been launched for about 9 days now.

Fire destroys barn, threatens home
Around 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 30 firefighters were called to a structure fire on SE 20th Avenue about two miles south of U.S. 54. Richard and Darrin Smith farm the land and Cherie Riffey lives in the house on the property. When firefighters arrived an old barn was fully engulfed in flames and had spread to nearby trees and dead grass. Tall dead cheat grass helped spread the fire. Near the fire were empty diesel fuel tanks, a propane tank and an oxygen acetylene cutting torch was in the barn but the tanks did not explode. Firefighters from Township 12, Iuka and Cullison combined to fight the blaze that gave off intense heat on a day when the temperatures were already hovering around 100 degrees. The firefighters surrounded the property and prevented the fire from spreading beyond the immediate area around the barn and trees. The wind pushed the fire away from the house and it was not damaged. The barn burned to the ground. Also destroyed in the barn was a1975 John Deere tractor and a small truck plus everything else in the barn. Because of the intense heat, firefighters rotated to give each other a break to cool down and get cold water. Pratt County EMS sent an ambulance to the site to provide a cool resting place for firefighters that got too hot. Several firefighters took advantage of the cool break. None of the firefighters was injured. The Cannonball Trail Chapter of the American Red Cross assisted at the site with extra water for the firefighters. It took a couple of hours to get the fire out and all the hot spots extinguished.Posted Jul. 5, 2012

The logical empiricists often appear as a foil for feminist theories. Their emphasis on the individualistic nature of knowledge and on the value-neutrality of science seems directly opposed to most feminist concerns. However, several recent works have highlighted aspects of Carnap's views that make him seem like much less of a straightforwardly positivist thinker. Certain of these aspects lend themselves to feminist concerns much more than the stereotypical picture would imply.

|Bass guitar, double bass, piano

|Radio Stars, Jet, Sparks, John's Children
Martin Gordon (born 3 May 1954, Ipswich, Suffolk) is an English musician, who plays bass guitar, double bass and piano.
Martin Gordon was born in Ipswich, and grew up Hitchin, Hertfordshire. He studied piano and classical guitar as a child, attended summer schools hosted by the British National Jazz Youth Orchestra, where he took lessons from Nucleus bassist Jeff Clyne and later studied harmony and counterpoint.
Gordon began his musical career in the 1970s with the Californian pop brothers Ron Mael and Russell Mael in Sparks, who were seeking a bassist after their relocation to the UK. Gordon played with Sparks on the album Kimono My House, which featured his trademark Rickenbacker 4001 bass. "This Town Ain't Big Enough for the Both of Us" and "Amateur Hour" were UK hits from that album. "This Town..." made No. 2 in the UK Singles Chart but, after one album, Gordon and Sparks parted company.
He then formed Jet (described by Allmusic as "the first supergroup of glam"[1]) and then Radio Stars, who were in reality Jet wearing different trousers. Both bands featured singer Andy Ellison and drummer Chris Townson. Jet's eponymous album was produced by Queen producer Roy Thomas Baker. Between the demise of Jet and its reincarnation as Radio Stars in 1976, he performed briefly with pioneer of American punk Ian North; along with drummer Paul Simon, Gordon played a handful of dates with Ian's Radio before rejoining members of Jet to form Radio Stars.
Radio Stars achieved a modicum of success with a single 'Nervous Wreck' (which charted at #38) and two critically well-received albums Songs for Swinging Lovers and Holiday Album. The band has been anthologised with Two Minutes Mr Smith (Moonlight Records) and Somewhere There's a Place For Us (Ace Records). Ace Records re-released the Radio Stars catalogue on CD in 2003. In 2008, Radio Stars reformed for a gig at London's Blow Up Metro Club, to promote the release of live recordings from the 1970s entitled 'Something for the Weekend'. The performance featured original members Martin Gordon, Andy Ellison and Ian Macleod accompanied by drummer Steve Budney from Gordon's 2007 solo debut in Boston, USA. The band also performed one-off gigs at the Rebellion festival in London (13 December 2008) and at London's 100 Club (22 January 2010).
Session musician[edit]
Following the end of Radio Stars in 1979, he moved to Paris, France, where he worked as house producer for Barclay Records, and played bass with the Rolling Stones during the recording of 'Emotional Rescue'.[2] He returned to the UK at the beginning of the 80s, and worked as producer and in other capacities with such musicians as George Michael, Boy George, Blur, Primal Scream, Kylie Minogue, S'Express, Tiger Lillies and Robert Palmer, as well as a host of minor talents.
World music[edit]
At the beginning of the 1990s, world music took Gordon initially to Bombay with Asha Bhosle and Boy George, and subsequently to orchards and deserts in Pakistan, Jewish cemeteries in Morocco, libraries in Egypt, percussion schools in Ghana and to remote villages in The Gambia. After studying gamelan in Bali on a Darmasiswa scholarship, he formed the Mira ensemble with journalist Peter Culshaw in 1995, releasing an album 'New Hope For the Dead'. They created an elaborate theatrical presentation, which collapsed under its own weight after two performances at the Place Theatre, in London and an appearance at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1997. He was a member of the SOAS-based (Balinese) Gamelan Kembang Kirang between 1996–1997. Gordon performed with (Indonesian gamelan group) Lindhu Raras in Berlin in September 2013.[3]
Following the recording of an album in Istanbul with Turkish diva Sezen Aksu, Gordon played bass on Aksu's subsequent European tour (2002). This prompted his return to his pop music roots in 2003, via his own label Radiant Future Records.
He has seven solo albums to his credit, most recorded in collaboration with Swedish vocalist Pelle Almgren. The first three solo releases were collected in a box-set titled The Mammal Trilogy (2006). Allmusic noted that 'any release that reminds the world of the brilliance of Gordon's first three 21st century solo albums can only be applauded'.[4] His solo albums also feature a selection of Lennon–McCartney and Gilbert & Sullivan tunes alongside Gordon originals. In 2007 Gordon made his live debut as a solo performer in Boston, United States.
The fourth album God is on His Lunchbreak was accompanied by a book detailing the origins of the material, lyrics and assorted musing entitled The Illustrated and Annotated 'God's on His Lunchbreak, Please Call Back' Companion Volume, with illustrations by drummer Chris Townson.[5] The fifth album Time Gentlemen Please was accompanied by the album Time Gentlemen Please – Demos, featuring Gordon's original demos of the material (available only via his website).
Gordon and vocalist Almgren made appearances in 2011 and 2012 as part of the Swedish garage-punk outfit 70-5, and various performances are to be found on YouTube. The sixth and final installment of the Mammal Trilogy was entitled 'Include Me Out';[6] released in August 2013, it was recorded in Berlin, Germany and Gnesta, Sweden and was accompanied by 'Words in Your Shell-Like', a book of Gordon's lyrics from Jet to the Mammal Trilogy. This brought the Trilogy to completion.
An album of Gilbert and Sullivan compositions 'Gilbert Gordon & Sullivan' was released by Radiant Future Records in April 2016.
Gordon is known for using the Rickenbacker 4001 bass guitar, most notably on the Sparks album Kimono My House and the later album Jet by the British group of the same name. He has stated in the Rickenbacker Forum [1] that he used H&H amplification for this recording, specifically a H&H bass combo. He used Rotosound round-wound strings to produce his benchmark sound. Such was his identification with the 4001 that he stated that he preferred to be sacked (from the group Sparks) rather than accommodate the request for him to use a different instrument [2]. In Radio Stars, he used a Rickenbacker 3001 and then, when the demands of punk became irresistible, a Fender Precision bass. In more recent times he has used Yamaha 5-string basses and Stagg upright e-basses, before returning to the Rickenbacker 4003 in 2014 [3].
