The small flat in which I live is designed for two students. I manage to pay the entirety of the rent myself, so I'm living by myself, but I have 2 LAN outlets in the flat.
I wish to configure a local network of my own with several computers and a router. How can I connect the two outlets to one network? What hardware is required?

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
That pretty much depends on what is coming out of these 2 outlets:
The ZyXEL P-663H-51 is such a router.
depending on your OS, you can use link aggregation protocols. For linux, LAGCP will allow you to bind two interfaces to a virtual interface, and route traffic across the virtual interface. In windows versions before 2003, this was known as shotgunning a lan.
In newer versions of windows this is known as NIC Teaming. Most motherboard/nic manufacturers provide nic teaming drivers as an optional download (ASUS/Intel/BRoadcom/Realtek). Once the NIC teaming driver is installed, its as simple as linking both lan connections to the Team profile under network connections.
Bridging, is not what you're looking for, so be wary of the differences in 'Bridge this network adapater' and 'Team this network adapter'
You can get routers with dual WAN ports, and connect one of these to each connection, or you can get a machine of your own with three network ports, and setup something like pfsense or Untangle on it. I've used some of the dual (and even quad) WAN Drayteks before, but I'm afraid I don't have model numbers handy. A google search for "Dual WAN router" should fine plenty.

THE ISSUE: Departure of refuge manager.
OUR OPINION: Michael Lusk showed dedication and grace through painstaking tenure.
Shortly after being named Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge manager in 2009, Michael Lusk described the position as "a dream come true."
Those who recognize the challenges of managing the Crystal River Wildlife Refuge portion of his territory can appreciate that that "dream" has often been a nightmare. He's been the target of stinging criticism from those with personal agendas for areas where human and wildlife activities overlap.
Given that his job has been to safeguard and enhance the refuge, conflict was inevitable.
While the Crystal River refuge only comprises a tiny portion of a territory that stretches southward to the mouth of Tampa Bay, our unique circumstances have demanded a disproportionate amount of attention. In striving to execute his job, he's been under a microscope from citizens seeking to thwart initiatives intended to enhance the refuge. Through it all, he's remained a mild-mannered, approachable and conscientious manager.
Fortunately, there are many here who respect and appreciate that his assigned mission has been to regulate activities that negatively impact "fish and wildlife" — most notably manatees — and their habitat.
Lusk has faced challenges around every corner — be it residents living near Three Sisters Springs not wanting the public to see their property from manatee-viewing areas, residents opposed to the expansion of manatee sanctuaries and slow-speed zones so they can boat with minimal restrictions, trying to call the public's attention to the long-term management of the greater Chassahowitzka Wildlife Refuge or … well, the list goes on.
Michael Lusk has been cursed at, called bad names and painted as a heartless bureaucrat.
At the extreme, he's been pegged as an emblem of federal government overreach.
Now with his departure and transfer to Georgia's Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, his harshest critics may come to appreciate his willingness to engage public input in pursuing his job. It's possible his replacement will be less sympathetic to a volatile, harsh public.
Both Lusk's detractors and admirers should acknowledge that he has been accessible, articulate and genuinely concerned about the multiple facets of his job.
It's unlikely Michael Lusk could have foreseen the hostility that awaited him in his dream job, but he's persevered and served the refuge well.

Lyric Rising began its musical journey in the summer of 2012. In the duo's infancy, Lyric positioned itself as a stripped-down acoustic duo, developing its own sound and spin to classic rock and pop favorites, in addition to writing and recording their own original material, in preparation for eventual CD release.
As Lyric Rising hits its "one year" mark, they have quickly built up an impressive musical repertoire, and have played numerous performances in the Northern New Jersey area since its first live show in February 2013. The band continues to evolve musically and creatively, continuously adding both new and classic songs to their set list, expanding their depth of sound - both acoustic and electric, as well as combining Keith's original musical compositions with Christy's original songwriting, resulting in a unique and catchy feel all their own.
Christy Nilsen fronts this duet with her passionate and her powerful soulful voice, coupled with her vibrant stage presence.
Keith Dunham compliments Christy by adding his part on both the acoustic and electric guitar.
This duet will be updating their bio as they complete the many milestones that lie ahead of them. Lyric Rising will be returning to the studio very soon to continue refining and recording their original material, and updates on CD release, as well as gig schedules will be posted on ReverbNation, Facebook, and www.lyricrising.com as they become available! We thank our friends, family and fans as we embark on this remarkable musical voyage and we can't wait to see you all at our shows!

Hello. I am using the default wordpress blog. I would like to make my post links underlined and a lighter color like this guy does here:
His post links are underlined and then the line disappears when you hover. Also the home link he made on the side does the same. All his other links are just like the template.
How can I do this too? I think it will invlove editing the .css file which I can do I just would like to know which lines to hit and how.

A local Japanese politician was carrying over 3.3 kilograms of narcotics when he was detained at an airport in southern China late last month, according to Chinese public security officials.
Takuma Sakuragi, 70, a member of the Inazawa municipal assembly in Aichi Prefecture, was taken into custody at Baiyun airport in Guangzhou on Oct. 31 while going through the baggage check.
He has told Japanese diplomats who met him at the detention house that he is innocent, sources close to the Inazawa municipal assembly said Saturday.
Sakuragi, who traveled to China on private business, had apparently received a suitcase containing shoe samples from a Nigerian, the sources said.
Chinese public security officials said Baiyun airport security personnel found over 3.3 kg of methamphetamine in Sakuragi's possession.
Sakuragi traveled to Guangzhou on Oct. 29 on business for a trading company that he owns. He apparently met the Nigerian in Guangzhou on business.
According to Chinese public security officials, Sakuragi was heading to Shanghai on a China Southern Airlines flight when he was detained.
Sources close to the Inazawa municipal assembly said the narcotics were found hidden in the shoes he was carrying.
Sakuragi, a fifth-term member of the Inazawa municipal assembly, told Japanese diplomats he has no plan to resign from the assembly, the sources said.
According to the Japanese Foreign Ministry, the maximum penalty for drug smuggling in China is the death penalty. In 2010, four Japanese were executed in China on drug possession charges.

How To Write The Best Dissertation
Your dissertation comes from you. It comes out of your mind, out of your work, out of your time, out of your efforts and your attitude. It is part of you. Writing the best dissertation happens when you optimize your time, your efforts and your attitude. Best doesn't mean harder or more work.
- Block out your most productive time. For some people, it's early morning. For others, it's evening. When are you the most alert, the most apt to do your best work? That's the time of day you need to dedicate to writing your dissertation. It's the priority; it trumps everything else.
- Divide tasks into 3-page bites. A manuscript as long as a dissertation – we're talking book length here – is better tackled in smaller pieces. Doing 3 pages at a time keeps up your writing momentum and also the habit of writing regularly. Studies have shown that regularity in writing is more productive than almost any other strategy.
- Have a support system. True, this isn't part of the actual writing process. But it does give you support and encouragement so you can continue to write. Make and keep appointments with your supervisor. Have a small group of family or friends that can help to keep you encouraged and motivated.
- Don't forget about your passion. You started your dissertation with a real passion for your work. Make sure you revisit those feelings often. The passion will come out in your writing and make for a fabulous dissertation.
- Get expert writing help. There are professionals available online to help you over the bumps in the road toward your dissertation. If you have done a lot of research and started writing but don't really know what to do next, consult one of these online experts. They don't have to write your whole dissertation for you – unless you want them to – but they can certainly assist you with the difficult parts.
Write even when you don't feel like writing. If you have an outline sketched out, use it to divide things into approximately 3-page portions. It's fairly easy to do 3 pages at one sitting. For example, a chapter may have 3 main ideas. Each idea could map out approximately 3 pages.
Statistics estimate that up to 50% of all graduate students that start their dissertation don't finish. That's really sad and grim to think about. Just push forward and keep going. If you need help, see a counselor or talk to your advisor. Do anything that's required to complete your journey.
Follow these simple guidelines and before you know it you will have written the best dissertation you could possibly write.

Best Dr. Ever! Celebration, FL
Show More I'm not the ideal weight bmi is over 38 so most Dr's. Aren't trying to perform surgery on you. So I wasn't expecting to even schedule a consultation. To my surprise Ms. Barbra, put me at ease and scheduled me for the very next day. Also when making my appt. I found out its a Christian facility. Amen!! My appointment was amazing ! She said of course losing weight is ideal, but as long as my Health is great she was willing and able She never gave me false expectations. She was direct, sweet and caring very calming. Needless to say I called back that day after talking to my Wonderful hubby and paid in full!
5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
47 Yr Old Mom 100 Lb Weight Loss Tummy Tuck-Extended with Lipo Flanks Now It's Time to Get my Sexy Body Back! - Celebration, FL
Show More I researched many plastic surgeons in the Orlando area and I finally chose Dr Roxanne Sylora of Institute of Aesthetic Surgery at Florida Hospital Celebration, FL. I went in on 3/30/15 for my consultation. She was so wonderful. I had a list of questions and she answered them all in a very caring way. She was very honest and realistic. I went ahead and paid my deposit and booked my Tummy Tuck- Extended with Lipo-Flanks for 4/16/15. Her staff was extremely professional and caring. I felt a wonderful connection with my doctor because she was a female and she would understand what I was feeling. It was definitely worth the investment!
5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck

Show More What a wonderful Dr. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and all my interactions with Dr Sylora. She was amazing!
5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
Tummy Tuck & Thigh/knee/flank Lipo - Celebration, FL
Show More Dr Sylora and the team of nurses & staff have been wonderful! I met w/ several Drs before choosing Dr Sylora but confirmed my surgery appt the same day after meeting her.

5 out of 5 stars Panniculectomy
Procedure That Completely Changed my Life!! - Celebration, FL
Show More My interactions with Dr. Sylora were very positive. She listened to my concerns. I got the immediate impression that she really wanted to help me achieve my goals. My results were excellent, and my aftercare was outstanding.

T-abdominoplasty After Major Weight Loss - Celebration, FL
Show More I believe Sylora is the only female plastics dr in Central Florida. I think that makes her more compassionate and easier to talk to. She works a lot with post bariatric weight loss patients. I am so happy with my new flat tummy. I have recommended her to several friends.

The Activision vs Infinity Ward Of The Racing Game World
Codemasters, the studio behind racing games like Dirt and the upcoming F1 2010, is taking another developer to court, accusing it of "poaching staff".
Codemasters, the studio behind racing games like Dirt and the upcoming F1 2010, is taking another developer to court, accusing it of "poaching staff".
Six monitors, bolted together, might make your gaming better. It will certainly make it take up more room and, as Kotaku learned yesterday, it introduces a couple of new complications.
After following up Dirt with Dirt 2 last year, the studio behind the rally racer confirms that it's working on a Dirt 3
Codemasters trotted out the PC version of Colin McRae: DiRT 2 today at the Windows 7 launch in New York, showing off the snazzy DirectX 11 features the game was delayed for.
Don't blame us for the horribly punny headline. Responsibility lies squarely on the shoulders of Codemasters' marketing and PR department.
Dirt 2 has plenty going for it from what I've seen of the early build I spent the weekend playing. But more on that later, right now I want you to soak in this odd use of Xbox 360 avatars.
Unlike E3, there were no stars of adult movies to distract us from focusing on Dirt 2 when the game showed up in New York this week. It's muddy racing with some unexpected narrative touches.
Plenty of video game developers have booth babes on hand at this year's E3 to add a little sizzle to their games, but only Codemasters has an award-winning porn star in attendance.
Last Thursday's Codemasters event had some major pluses and minuses. I'm counting Overlord II as a plus – and all three times the speakers blew out as minuses.
New screens show off just how pretty a little mud can be in Codemasters' DiRT 2, the sequel to 2007's acclaimed off-road racer.

the swirls of the ocean were quite mesmerizing
hope you like
hope you like
Amazing... somehow seems like a dream - not real, fav!
fantastic shot! I'm not too into ocean photography, but I adore the color/general tone of the piece and the motion in the waves crashing and receding. Well done!
mm, great shot, I always have so much trouble capturing the water patterns, I can never get it quite right, well done, perfectly exposed...I know you requested advanced crit, but I really don't have any to give except that its maybe a bit noisy...need a noise reduction filter perhaps ;D
i love the slow shutter effect on water.
Such beautiful colors!
This is fabulous
Beautiful photo. I love the blue tones. It could be a little brighter, or have a little more contrast, just to make it stand out more. Also, I feel the border could be slightly bigger; it will make it look more 'professional', however that's just my personal preference.
Overall it's a very nice shot
Overall it's a very nice shot
Stunning! +Fav!
i agree with the previous comment. it does look like a fantasy place or a painting. very nice photo!
THIS IS AMAZING!!! It's looks mythical and almost as if it were a fantasy place. It also reminds me of a painting! This piece is absolutely beautiful!

I've just added a new NZ libertarian blogger to the 'Libz & Elsewhere' part of my blogroll. Welcome aboard Graham Clark, AKA The Tomahawk Kid, who will already be well-known to readers the Bay of Plenty Times's letters page as a regular and provocative contributor, to readers of The Free Radical as the man responsible for the magazine's graphics, and to followers of his band Brilleaux as a songwriter, singer, guitarist, harmonica legend and Theremin stalwart.
Welcome aboard, Graham. And while writing about and adding to that part of my blogroll, good to see Julian taking up the cudgels on behalf of Greed and against Direct Democracy, James taking them up on the subject of Europe's Cultural Decay, Duncan on Biased Reporting and Kaiwai (briefly) on behalf of Fun; also good to see Susan the Libertarian back from holiday and back in action, and Richard at Benzylpiperazine just back in action.

Philanthropic activities often yield unexpected community development. Nebraska Philanthropy: Investing In Our Future explores that relationship. What began as a fundraiser for a nonprofit organization in North Platte has turned into a destination event for railroad enthusiasts from all over the world. In Prague, brothers Jeremy and Justin Stanislav have created an annual mud volleyball tournament that helps women battle breast cancer while bringing people and attention to their hometown. Through it's Hometown Competitiveness model, the Nebraska Community Foundation is helping Holt County attract young entrepreneurs to the region. And the Nebraska Children's Home Society reaps the benefit of a $4 Million gift, 120 years in the making.

It's the weekend, can't call midwife til Monday and even then she'll take forever.
There are several reasons I'd like to start taking L-Tyrosine vitamin supplements. . does anyone know how safe/unsafe these are during pregnancy? Are any vitamins unsafe during pregnancy?
I've been. . "off" this time around. I know why and I need to start feeling better. Vitamins usually help get me started. I deal with fibro, RA, and a history of severe depression. My midwives aren't willing to put me on an antidepressant I know works for me so I need other options.

They are selling standalone units and bundles. I'm torn between like and dislike. More dislike than like though. At least you have the option to get the bundle or the standalone.
10-04-2013 #3
10-04-2013 #4
Bah, read between the lines, this is pure BS. It specifically says if they want the pre-orders by launch.
It specifically didn't clarify if they were launch day pre-orders. It sounds like instead, if you have a pre-order but it's not a launch day pre-order, then you have the option of turning it into a launch day pre-order by going with the bundle.
Either this or Simply Games simply lied about launch versions and oversold beyond the quantity of launch non-bundled PS4's they were allocated.
Sony isn't forcing this on customers, Sony is simply saying here's what you're getting a launch. It doesn't say that Sony scaled back the amount of non-bundled units at launch. If they did, I'd have expected a direct statement to such a thing, which did not occur.

PS: FWIF, I'd be willing to swap out my Launch day PS4 for a couple different bundles since I've also got a second controller, PS4 Eye, Watch Dogs and AC:BF on order for launch.

Sounds like small time retailer received an allocation of both standalone and bundles and is trying to pull a fast one on it's customers, by forcing an up sell.
Says more about the trustworthiness of "simply games". BTW I've never heard of them and I've been buying stuff online in the UK since 2001.

Are the bundles by Sony or by the retailer?
10-08-2013 #11
update from simply games the retailer in question
Online retailer Simply Games has confirmed to MCV that it's PS4 pre-order upgrade plan has not been forced upon it by Sony.
The company has been contacting customers who have pre-ordered a PS4 telling them that they must upgrade to a more expensive bundle to secure their machine.
"We are aware of some fairly major inaccuracies that have been reported on various web sites," Simply Games director Neil Muspratt told MCV. "Whilst this is very regrettable, we have taken the decision not to get involved with internet speculation, rumours and untruths.
"We can confirm that ours is largely a retailer-lead initiative and on site we have listed a combination of Sony bundles and our own PS4 bundle offers. By and large these offers have been very well received, to the point at which our launch allocation has now all been sold through."

Seems this is limited to a single retailer but I don't think it would be necessarily bad of Sony to have a certain amount of stand alone and certain amount of bundles at launch. You can always wait for a stand alone...also Sony may have teamed up with certain publishers to help push their games in exchange for marketing support/dlc. There is a trade off. As long as they aren't forcing people to change their order to keep their launch date this is no news to me. If its just people upset because Sony said we have 1.5 million stand alone units and 250k various bundle units...and the stand alone are sold out and thats all that is left...well that isn't a problem to me. I'm super happy with my pre-order but if all that was available was a BF4 or KZ4 bundle I would have done it.
10-08-2013 #15Statement from Sony (SCEE)
Sony is not and would not force anyone to buy something they don't want. We value our consumers and offered the bundles precisely to give them choice and value. And the key word there is choice.
We continue to work closely with our retail partners to ensure we offer this choice against the challenges of managing demand and inventory in the climate of amazing excitement and unprecedented demand for PlayStation 4.
10-08-2013 #16
I mean so far the bundles have been good and as said before ps4 are doing standalone buys so yeah I think they are doing great
10-08-2013 #17
Sony is launching in multiple terrtories including NA , asia , australia et al and i haven't heard about bundles being forcefully mandated by sony elsewhere. This here could be a retailer thing (maybe their margin on selling on a bundle is higher).

WU-TANG so funny. I get it
WU-TANG so funny. I get it
This is one of those movies I saw when I was 8 or so, forgot about it but remembered constantly scenes of. Pretty sure I had dreams about it. It was stuck in my subconscious, but now it's out! THANKS GIANT BOMB!
WUTANG isn't as good when the movie isn't terrible.
wonderful universe of TANG ain't nuthin ta fuck wit
The lesson of this movie was "Don't trust old people". Oh, and "Sell your Atari stock because trouble is coming".
I hope it has been mentioned that Ryan has the same tattoo on his arm that Jack from Mass Effect 2 has on her head, right?
Cool wutang
720p ftw
The new season is coming great. Just a wonderful time for odd movies.
Awesome sauce!
Nice ending :)
"This was my exact same thought.I was hoping for this "
" Do Grandma's Boy! "
I really like this movie a lot ... probably more than I should ;)
"I am glad I was not the only one, but hey, this is not Comic Vine!I was hoping for this "
that picture is WAY TOO intense!
dungeon master is listed on imdb as RAGEWAR. Here is a picture of that vhs release cover
I guess they never figured out how to get video from the VHS tape.
Ok seriously. Where's the new Wu TANG?
So uh... I thought we had a thing going on here, guys.
All I want for Christmas is a new WU TANG
So, where did TANG go?
good news, no need to use the vhs for dungeon master: it's now on netflix instant
That is one good goddamn question.
" So, where did TANG go? "
For a second, I thought the VHS tape was going to fit in the DVD player lol.
" So, where did TANG go? "Ryan doesn't want to do it anymore.
" @SupberUber said:He said that?" So, where did TANG go? "Ryan doesn't want to do it anymore. "
I would love more TANG
" I would love more TANG "i would expect him to do at least one more for Tron: Legacy. right? right?! please great Whiskey Gods!
And we never did get to see that VHS of the Dungeonmaster.
I'm still holding out hope for more TANG or WUTANG!
When are we going to see more TANG?
They could totally look at Prince of Persia, and those two Tekken movies (one of them being the animated Bloodline Rebellion)
Dungeon Master.. sill waiting. :(
They should do TANG's of the Street Fighter series and the multiple Mortal Kombat series.
So is this where all modern action games got the futuristic looking soldier drabbed in darkness walking away from an explosion box art from? (Damn that was a long sentence.)
I loved this movie!
I believe I speak for everyone when I say I want more TANG
where's tang?! we miss it! pwease come back!
Has TANG been stopped? I haven't seen any more uploads from it... and I need more... Just one more TANG man... Just one...
....aaaand there goes the last TANG. Sunday well spent...I guess! Suppose I need to start watching Happy Hours and TNT from the very beginning next.
There should be another season of TANG @ryan. This could be the lineup:

"South Africa Insurance Report Q1 2011" is now available at Fast Market Research
Fast Market Research recommends "South Africa Insurance Report Q1 2011" from Business Monitor International, now available
For non-life insurers, difficulties over the last year or so have come from the patchiness of the economic recovery, higher losses (sometimes as a result of one-off events) and fairly low underwriting margins by historical standards. The published results from the three largest non-life companies for H110 suggest that overall premiums have stagnated over the last two years or so. This indicates that 2009-2010 was a very different period to 2006-2007, when the non-life segment achieved double-digit growth. Nevertheless, if BMI's forecasts for economic growth in South Africa turn out to be accurate, and our prediction of a moderate rise in non-life penetration comes to fruition, the segment could return to double-digit growth from 2012.
Conversely, the figures from the Association for Savings and Investment South Africa (ASISA), the trade association for South Africa's life insurance companies and asset managers, suggest that 2010 may be seen as something of a year of respite after a very challenging 18 months to the end of 2009.The good news is that financial markets have been far less volatile than they were in Q408 and Q109. The bad news is that customers have become risk averse. In its South African Insurance Industry Survey 2010, KPMG notes that sales of single premium products have fallen. The lapse rate has also continued to rise. It appears that life premiums increased by about 8% in the year as a whole. This is a marked, positive turnaround after 2009 and an outcome that is in line with the trend that prevailed prior to 2008.
Concentration In The Market
Although none mention it, it is possible that the structure of the market has helped participants to maintain prices and margins compared to what they might have been. Both the life and non-life segments continue to be dominated by companies from South Africa's large domestic financial services groups. In the life segment, the largest players are Old Mutual (the owner of Nedbank and much else) and Sanlam. In the non-life segment, Mutual & Federal, Santam and the local operations of Zurich account for nearly 40% of total premiums. Absa has non-life and life subsidiaries. FirstRand Group is represented by Momentum Group (life insurance) and OUTsurance (non-life). Standard Bank owns Liberty Group, a major life player. Nevertheless, there are several substantial independent companies, including Discovery, which focuses on health insurance, Metropolitan and Hollard, a private company expanding into Australia and elsewhere.
A key development in the life segment has been the proposed merger of Metropolitan with Momentum. Metropolitan will make an all-share purchase of Momentum. FirstRand will then distribute its shares in Metropolitan/
The responses to a challenging year vary. However, in general the impact of the downturn on profits was softened by at least one of the following: lower claims; lower administrative costs; corporate restructuring to emphasise more profitable lines and businesses; restructuring to reduce volatility of earnings; growth in healthcare products (thanks partly to the Government Employees Medical Scheme, GEMS); foreign expansion (usually into embryonic markets elsewhere in Sub-Saharan Africa, but also into Australia's non-life segment); and, perhaps most importantly, higher investment earnings.
Of the insurers that emphasise niche businesses, it is possible that the one affected least by the downturn was Guardrisk, part of Alexander Forbes (a broker of short-term insurance and provider of various risk management solutions). Guardrisk is one of the world's leading providers of captive cell solutions to its clients. Guardrisk grew by virtually all measures in the year to the end of March 2009 as its customers sought the advantages of underwriting their own risks through captives.

Rehabilitated vultures still struggle to survive
Vultures treated in rehabilitation programs are still much less likely to survive than other members of their species, researchers have found.
Cape vultures are veering toward extinction. Many of the birds suffer from poisoning or crash into power lines, so rehabilitation centers often treat the injured vultures. But "few studies have actually tested the efficacy of the technique," the study authors write in Animal Conservation. "After all, if rehabilitated birds are unable to survive in the wild, then the technique can hardly be called a conservation tool."
From 2005 to 2012, the researchers caught 242 Cape vultures at 12 locations in South Africa, then tagged the birds and released them back into the wild. The team also tagged 163 sick or injured birds that went through rehabilitation and were released. Landowners, bird-watchers, and other members of the public were then enlisted to spot the same vultures later.
In most cases, the rehabilitation centers couldn't diagnose how the bird was hurt. People saw 234 of the vultures that had been previously captured or treated, the researchers report. The wild-caught birds' survival rate was 91 percent, but the rehabilitated birds' was only 75 percent. "[O]ur results underscore the importance of tackling the causes of these injuries to Cape vultures before rehabilitation becomes necessary," the authors conclude. — Roberta Kwok | 29 May 2013

is there a way to add attendees to an event manually?
And if so, is it possible to add them even if the event is already booked out?
The reason I need this functionaility is that I want to export the attendees list along with special event persons, e.g. the speaker of an event. I would like to add this person after the registration for the event is over.

A set of mighty jewelled artefacts, each keyed to one of the eight domains of magic. Once wielded by the Lords of the High Council of Linnarson, today they have been scattered to the four winds: some lost, some destroyed, and some in the hands of the mighty.
Everyone knows that that Senthia Khlack died with her father, the Duke Eldward Khlack, after their failed Rebellion. But what they do not is that Senthia still lives, after a fashion.
Blind mage that casts spells from Braile scrolls.
A one eyed mercenary the ladies just can't get enough of.
A bald, runic-tattoo covered elven mercenary who looks out only for himself.
Feu'mer the inspector was quite adept at his work of solving and preventing crimes. He was known for a very sharp eye - and not the one remaining eye that was in his head.
Made of dark steel by those of an age gone by, this is the last of the giant war golems. Taller than elder dragon is long, this clanking behemoth plods across the land, obliveous to all works of men, elves, or dwarves.
Without these stone disks, there would be no Elventi Society. It is the HearthStones that hold the society together, allowing Elves to live together and in their beloved forests.
This enormous blade is capable of leveling more than just men.
It sees you, can you see it? Even when the room is lit?
Funny how those shadows twist, as though the room were filled with mist.
But theres no mist, the room is clear! About now, you should start to fear.
clear your mind, take a last breath. For in a second, you'll meet with death.
A set of land, roughly six hundred meters squared, which has JUST not enough trees to be called woodlands. Though there IS something most curious about these lands. Perhaps the fact it is pure glass.
The tale of King Shorthold and The Window of the Mind
This discreet and stylishly concealable weapon is quite capable of cleaning up its own mess.
A weary adventurer-turned-lord. His fief is slowly growing, but threatened by growing forces of humanoids… and approaching winter.
A land being plunged into chaotic energies, wild superstition, massive prejudices and distrust. More of a campaign setting than anything else.
This is more of a concept applied to a particular setting than the setting itself, bear this in mind.
A dagger, seemingly crafted from plain oak wood…
Betrothed to Skundaath Lord of Chaos, Celdea lives in perpetual fear of being found and taken to be his bride.
The tale of colourshade of the two-fold, and his reknowned skill of painting.
Cheating death always has a price. For those who don the Shroud of Ster, the price is pain and suffering for ages.
Pembridge Maccadia, the Mindless Ruler, the Crafter of Graf Malin, sacrificed his very life to destroy a nation. A breathing, living machine with the heart of blades, a testament to his loathing of Man. His hatred for his own people…
Societies of beings who in some way reflect the dogmatic, superstitious, religious, idiotic, political, etc. views of large (or small) groups of people in real life.

A year-long search for the vice-president of McCook Community College is not finished, Mid-Plains Community College President Ryan Purdy said Friday.
Michele Gill has been the interim vice-president at McCook since January 2012.
Gill was promoted from her job as the Dean of Student Life and replaced long-term McCook vice-president Richard Tubbs, who abruptly retired after the college president took a job in Norfolk.
A search committee was formed to look for a permanent replacement for Tubbs, and the committee interviewed applicants. Purdy said.
We brought candidates to campus a couple of weeks ago, Purdy said in his email.
Purdy said there is an expectation to have the position filled by the end of this spring semester in May.
I am committed to finding the right candidate for this very important position and will not settle for the sake filling the position, he said.

SHAWNEE, Okla. -- When news broke of the alleged BTK Killer's capture in Wichita, it sparked new discussions and feelings toward a decades-old case: fear, relief, intrigue about such a person.
Public interest in serial killings and psychopaths is always high, says a local psychologist. But her involvement in the field is from a more analytical perspective.
Dr. Sue Stone is a clinical psychologist at the Citizen Potawatomi Nation in Shawnee, a position she's held since January. Although her work here is in general psychology and therapy, her specialty area is psychopathy, and she came from three years' work at the Department of Corrections, doing criminal court evaluations, consulting on capital murder cases and more.
Stone says there's an adage in her field: Not all psychopaths are serial killers, but all serial killers are psychopaths. While psychopaths as serial killers are a relatively rare phenomenon, there are people functioning in society who exhibit various degrees of psychopathic behavior in their daily lives, she said.
That makes the term psychopath a relative one, but there are definite characteristics of such people, Stone said.
Psychopaths demonstrate antisocial behavior and an aggressive narcissism -- they use people through charm, intimidation or violence, she said.
"They have a parasitic lifestyle -- they live off people. Their whole mindset is domination over other people," she said. "Psychopaths are not necessarily criminal in their activities, but they are attracted to positions of power. In the corporate world, there are examples of psychopathic behavior where people use up their employees' life savings with no genuine concern about it. They have no anxiety about their behavior."
There also is a lot of thrill-seeking with psychopathic behavior, Stone said. Over time, there will be an escalation of their behavior because they've gotten sensitized to a certain act, but then have to "up the ante" to capture the thrill they seek, she said.
"Psychopaths have a need for recognition, not just a need for attention," she said. "They have a sense of being invincible, of 'I can outsmart you.' They're taken in by their own narcissism. It's almost like a game."
In the BTK case, Dennis Rader has been arrested and charged in the killings of 10 people beginning in 1974. His seemingly normal life as a churchgoer and Scout leader has shocked many, but that type of appearance is not unheard-of in psychopaths, Stone said.
"It's a misnomer to think that if we saw a psychopath, he would look odd. Often, that's not the case," she said. "A psychopathic individual can be a chameleon and learn to act a certain way. That advances their opportunity to engage in certain behaviors because who would suspect?"
Psychopaths also differ in that their intellectual and emotional understanding of things don't match. Stone said psychologist Robert Hare has a saying for this condition: Psychopaths know the words but don't know the music when it comes to emotions.
"They know intellectually what it is to be sad, but their empathy and regard for other people is not there," Stone said. "They can mimic the feeling, but they really can't put words to how they feel because they don't have that internal experience."
There is no known treatment for psychopaths; rather, behavior management is the course of action, Stone said. Psychopaths don't say, "I need help" because they see others as the cause of their problems; they don't have anxiety to prohibit their behavior, she said.
And studies have shown that group therapy not only doesn't work for psychopaths, it makes their behavior worse, Stone said. They use the therapy setting as practice for manipulating people.
One percent of the general population in the United States meets the criteria for psychopaths, Stone said. But the percentage is 15-20 percent in prisons because of the criminal activity psychopaths often engage in.

2-alarm fire in Cape May Co. hampered by flood waters
Firefighters in Cape May County battled a 2-alarm house fire in Strathmere, New Jersey Saturday.
LOSING AMERICA: It is not just our Constitution and freedom we have that made America the greatest country in the world. It was the ethics the moral fibers that the older generation was taught. The patriotism that America shared the days when a handshake once word was just as binding as a legal contract today. and if we look at the last eight years we clearly see a president, administration, and former Secretary of State. That are clearly shown this no longer exist,one used to take pride in their job what they created and accomplished. it now seems no one seems to care about honor, respect,even a simple courtesy of opening a door for a handicap or one's elder no longer exists. The history that made America great is no longer taught in our schools, greed, playing games on one cell phone, texting one's friend, and getting as much as one can for free. Seems to be the modern trend we now see. Respect, helping one's fellow American, supporting our law enforcement, and our military, which keeps this great country safe. No longer seems to be important. But without all of these factors America will not exist, it will not have to worry about turning your cell phone on, playing that game, texting a friend. For the freebies they can obtain. They will no longer exist,
