I know that you can trade Pokemon between games of the same generation (Gold/Silver, Ruby/Sapphire) and even trade between 1st gen and 2nd gen. However, I haven't been able to find a way to trade Pokemon so that I can play with my 1st generation Pokemon in HeartGold, for instance. If it is possible, how many steps would it take and what equipment would I need?
As of 2016, this will finally possible. Nintendo have announced that players will be able to trade from the Virtual Console editions of Pokémon Red, Blue, Green and Yellow to the new Pokémon Sun/Moon via Pokémon Bank. Since Gen 6 (X/Y/OR/AS) is compatible with Pokémon Bank, it may also gain the ability to receive Gen 1 Pokémon when Sun/Moon does.
However, if we're talking about the original Gameboy cartridges, it can't be done. The limits on trading are as follows:
Generation 1 (Red/Blue/Green/Yellow)
There are three main reasons you can't trade between Gen I/II and Gen III:
You cannot trade from the 1st Generation or 2nd Generation into the 3rd Generation and onwards.
While it may not be possible to transfer from Gens I and II to III, seeing as Gen III has FireRed and LeafGreen, it would be advisable to just play through that and trade upwards (to gens IV and V) from there..
Linkara from the website Atop the Fourth Wall posted a how-to video showing that it was absolutely possible to go from Generation 1 and 2 cartridge all the way to any Generation (up to Generation 6, the latest as of the video's creation).
It does involve using hardware to extract your save file from the cartridge and manipulating it using a save game editor. However, the end result is having your original team from a real cartridge available all the way to the Pokébank.
*It is not possible to trade pokémon from Generation 5 to Generation 6. As explained on the official website:
However, a paid service called Pokémon Bank has been created to fulfil this gap. The service costs $4.99 (yearly subscription) and it allows users to upload their pokémon to the cloud. The "uploading" service can be used on both 5th and 6th generations, while the "downloading" service can only be used on Pokémon X and Y. Using this service allows de facto the users to trade pokémon from generation 3 up to 6.

Vic So'oto and Dangerfield are the two that stick out here. I think Dangerfield was hurt most of Pre Season.

Vic So'oto and Dangerfield are the two that stick out here. I think Dangerfield was hurt most of Pre Season.
We need to cut 6 more today.
Hmmm...Dangerfield was getting a lot of pub during training camp. Oh well, safety does seem to be a position in which the Steelers have starters and depth.
1.25) Artie Burns - CB, Miami (Mackensie Aleander)
2.58 ) Sean Davis - S/CB, Maryland (Deion Jones)
3.89) Javon Hargrave - DT, S. Carolina St. (Nick Vannett)
4.123) Jerald Hawkins - OT, LSU (Deandre Houston-Carson)
6.220) Travis Feeny - OLB, Wash (Darius Jackson)
7.227) Demarcus Ayers - WR, Hou (Graham Glasgow)
7.246) Tyler Matakevich - OLB, Temple (Travis Feeney)
The referee said that you hit Brian Sipe too hard. Did you hit him too hard?
I hit him as hard as I could - Jack Lambert
Once again, Dangerfield don't get no respect...nyuk yuk yuk....
Looking for Chris Carter's name...hoping we don't keep him at the expense of some up and coming talent...
Wouldn't be surprised to see TE Eric Waters back on the Practice Squad. I thought he was doing pretty well until he got hurt.
Why so'too
he was making plays. Lot more then Chris carter and some others
Moore also was excellent at camp and another guy who excelled as a returner on special teams. Two young guys who showed something at camp but obviously not enough.
Something to again bring up we will be cutting some good football players this year. Just goes to show you there is some depth on this roster unlike what we have had in last few years.
I was reading that players cut today have enough time to clear waivers, so that on Saturday, after last cuts, they can be signed immediately to the PS. A player who is not cut until then will have to wait to clear before being signed. That might explain a case like Dangerfield or So'oto. They will either be signed by another team this week, or be signed to the PS as soon as teams are down to 53.
I don't think So'to is PS eligible. He has been around a couple years I thought. I'd have rather kept him than Carter or Terrence Garvin. Waters should be on our PS if someone else doesn't scoop him up.

Steinbeck's tough yet charming portrait of people on the margins of society, dependent on one another for both physical and emotional survivalPublished in 1945, Cannery Row focuses on the acceptance of life as it is: both the exuberance of community and the loneliness of the individual. Drawing on his memories of the real inhabitants of Monterey, California, Steinbeck interweaves the stories of Doc, Henri, Mack and his boys, and the other characters in this world where only the fittest survive, to create a novel that is at once one of his most humorous and most poignant works.
John Steinbeck knew and understood America and Americans better than any other writer of the twentieth century. (The Dallas Morning News) A man whose work was equal to the vast social themes that drove him. (Don DeLillo)"

When I saw the title to this thread I thought that was the group you were going to link to.They are protestant. They purchased a masonic hall to use as their church. Once on the site this "Archbishop" was in full Orthodox Episcopal regalia sans the miter. He was however, wearing a Russian wedding crown. There was a letter from Patriarch Bartholomew on there which was sent to this group. Most likely it was a cordial letter of good wishes. Some groups use such things as a validation for their group. They did have lots of Orthodox materials on their site. They simply pick and choose.Do your Catholic friends looking to Orthodoxy live near this group in MA?

I have a blog with a large number of posts. I need to give someone a hard copy of the posts, just title, content and date. My immediate thought was to go to phpMy Admin and export the table to Excel, filter out all but the post-type=post and cut out a few columns.
But the option to export to Excel is no longer there.
I've tried exporting to csv, but I don't know how to get this to display in a meaningful Excel manner.
I've looked at many of the other export options like xml etc, but it isn't obvous to me how to remove all the stuff I don't need without cutting and pasting and going through every one of several thousand posts isn't on.
Any ideas?

I'm constantly wondering where names and words come from, so why limestone? Being basic in nature it neither tastes like a lime nor is it lime coloured.
Toothpaste etc... (added this header to make TOC show up in the right place)[edit]
in toothpaste? can we find a source for that?
Kaens 21:17, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
Limestone is a sedimentary rock. It is used in lots of ways; it used for buildings, for agriculture etc. It is strong, but easy to cut when you have a big sword. Easily corrodes in acid rain
How is limestone "readily available relatively easy to cut into blocks" and yet "quite expensive"? Kwertii 04:42, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
What different types of limestone are there
In reply..[edit]
In reply to both previous discussion topics: 1) "Easy to cut when you have a big sword"??? (It's the year 2006, not 1206!)
2) Kwertii, the rock is fairly common therefore readily available, and it can be chopped into blocks of all sizes, but the extraction process is expensive - involving blasting the rock with explosives, seperating it from the impurties, and getting rid of the impurities produced. Therefore, the rock costs about £5/tonne, or $9/tonne. --LeFrog 11:06, 26 May 2006 (UTC) 3)how does it transport the limestone
Fixing "Uses of Limestone" Image[edit]
On Thursday September 28th, 2006 I fixed the "Uses of Limestome" image at the bottom of the page to center it. The image used to be docked on the left side of the page but it was causing problems with the text below it.
Ratio of limestone to marine life[edit]
For there to be so much calcium carbonate or lime on the planet, there must of been a hell of a lot of marine life over 290 million years ago, to have all this lime all over the planet. are you sure there is not some natural chemical reaction that has formed all this excess limestone?
continued malicious edits in the last 24 hours[edit]
So, lots of very malicious edits to this article. It looks like the same person even though they are coming from different IPs, and they appear to be deliberately misleading. Perhaps we should start considering a semi-protect on this article. Debivort 21:54, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Limestone Value[edit]
So just how much is a quarry worth if it has 100 million tonnes of limestone reserves and a viable market to go with it? Is there a typical value used per ton once a quarry is permitted and operational? I have read $3.5 million per acre if an acre had 430,000 tonnes making the value about $8 a ton.

Lacustrine limestone[edit]
There are quite a few articles that use the term lacustrine limestone. Some just point here, others to lacustrine (a disambiguation page) and some to lake, none of which seem like ideal solutions. Is there enough to say about this form of limestone that it could have its own section here, or article in its own right, so that clearer links could be made? --Derek Andrews (talk) 13:05, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
Relative importance of uses[edit]
It seems a little odd that the section on 'uses' spends a lot of time on the largely historical use of limestone as a building material, but mentions its major modern uses, for cement manufacture and crushed aggregates, almost as a throwaway. Maybe some knowledgeable person could add a little table showing the main uses in percentages? 220.127.116.11 (talk) 14:54, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
Natural limestone erosion in the wild, in lengths of time[edit]
If any geologists or chemists know the properties that allow water to erode limestone in nature, it would be helpful to add that information. Stone Forest is an area in Yunnan Province that has formed over time as a result of water eroding the rocks. Creationists believe that the Earth is 6,000 years old, so limestone erosion should be be explained, and then amended to the Stone Forest article.

DALLAS (March 22, 2013)—What's described as a "pristine" copy of The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album autographed by all four band members is up for auction by a Texas-based auction house.
Dallas-based Heritage Auctions said bidding for the album has already passed $110,000 and could top $150,000 by the time bidding closes on March 30.
Heritage originally estimated the album would go for about $30,000.
The Beatles signed the album jacket on the gatefold above the pictures of their heads.
Heritage spokesman Noah Fleisher says the bidding started at $30,000.

Iraqi football players, who have performed exceptionally well at the Olympics, are cautioning President George Bush not to use their success in his re-election campaign, according to the US monthly Sports Illustrated.
US media has touted the success of Iraq's under-23 team as it beat Portugal 4-2 and Costa Rica 2-0 and sailed through to the quarterfinals.
However, the sudden interest in the team - particularly from the US Republican re-election campaign platform - has irked some of its members.
"Iraq as a team does not want Mr. Bush to use us for the presidential campaign," Iraqi player Salih Sadir told SI.com.
"He can find another way to advertise himself."
Sadir has so far scored two goals for the team.
But some players went further: substitute Ahmad Manajid, who played as a midfielder in Wednesday's match against Morocco (1-2) told the monthly sports magazine "How will he meet his god having slaughtered so many men and women?"
"He has committed so many crimes."
Manajid went on to say "I want to defend my home. If a stranger invades America and the people resist, does that mean they are terrorists?"
"Everyone [in Falluja] has been labelled a terrorist. These are all lies. Falluja people are some of the best people in Iraq."
According to Sports Illustrated, one of Manajid's cousin was a resistance fighter who was killed by US occupation forces. He allegedly told SI.com that he would have become a resistance fighter had he not been on the Olympic team.
Iraq's second coach, who filled the gap left behind when German manager Bernd Stange left the team due to security concerns, told SI.com that he believed US occupation forces destroyed everything in his country.
"My problems are not with the American people," Adnan Hamad told the sports monthly.
"They are with what America has done in Iraq: destroy everything. The American army has killed so many people in Iraq. What is freedom when I go to the [national] stadium and there are shootings on the road?"
So it's the coaches who are indoctrinating these kids.
We should FedEx the team concrete soccer balls, iron maidens, and cattle prods if they lose...
That's discouraging to hear, I was rooting for them.
Excellent idea!
"The American army has killed so many people in Iraq."
Yeah...how bout them Marines! Good job, men! Let's hope these terrorist punks join the resistance when the Olympics are over and our boys throw a surprise victory celebration for them complete with 72 virgins.
That's pretty impressive. Portugal and Costa Rica must SUCK!
Or what?
Makes you realize how hopeless it is to try and help islamicics. I think they'd rather be tortured from their own kind for losing than excelling under our help.
he's a Sunni - what do you expect.
hey, if they don't win the gold, maybe we can use some of that torture equipment that Uday and Qusay used on other iraqi athletes who failed to win. then perhaps his opinion of the US and Bush will change.
Perhaps these players would like to go back to their old system. You know? The one where, when the Iraqis don't get gold, they get shoved into wood chipping machines feet first.
he's a Sunni - they were the elites in iraq, the ruling class who had all the corrupt privileges.
"the agony of defeat"
Course some of this might be propaganda to show that the Iraqi success at the Olympics isn't US-bought.
It wouldn't surprise me if some team members with family links to terrorism or sympathy to terrorism are causing the rest of the team to not speak out.
"They are with what America has done in Iraq: destroy everything..."
Sheesh.That's the thanks we get for liberating a few million people.Watta bunch of crap.
Evidently these Iraqi idiots preferred life with cattle prods stuck up their asses.
Oh, Al Zazeerha - the KERRY media outlet form the DNC convention,
Big time bump!
All I can think is these athletes world is incredibly insular and controlled. In spite of the media bias, there have been a few reports of Iraqis gratefully cheering us on
for liberating them.
Shove it Al Jazeera! Bush don't need no stinky Iraq soccer team, to help him win the Presidential Election!
That's because of the LSM. I have it on authority of a family member who recently served there that the people are extremely grateful.
I do not know when I have been so angry.
President Bush represents the American people with whom they supposedly have no problem. He represents the men whose blood was and is being spilled to prevent Saddam and Sons from torturing the Iraqi Olympians.
If he misses his elite status perhaps we can get him some of it in Palestine where he can spill his life for the virgin class.
Those people deserve not one drop of American blood any more than one penny of American currency!
I would gladly let Iran take them over and arm Israel for their own defense.
I hope this revolts Americans thoroughly.
I'd be curious to know what the others think, although I suspect most of them have the same sentiments.
Or, of they don't, leftist SI wouldn't print what they said.
After all, they had to rely on a subsititue player for their harshest quotes.
They used to get tortured when they lost and money when they won. They're just PO'd that there is no cash windfall for them this go-round.
You have to remember that the Iraqi coaching staff, and those athletes that did well and were not tortured by Uday, would have been part of the Baathist elite. The U.S. destroyed their power over the rest of Iraqi society. Too bad.
Katarina Witt had a similar attitude after the fall of the Berlin Wall.
However, in her case, I would have volunteered to sympathize with her and comfort her over her loss. ;-)
President Bush? Sure gets around a lot doesn't he? He's either in Crawford "Vacationing" or in Falluja committing atrocities. It's a wonder he finds the time to campaign.
Thank you! What a bunch of freakin ingrates.
Guess we shouldn't be surprised. Bush has been fighting to protect Americans from terrorism, including creeps like Michael Moore.
I think the biggest mistake we made in Iraq is assuming that everyone in the world wants western-style democracy. The lesson, as it turns out, it that some people are in dire need of being oppressed.
Can anyone make sense of this? Weren't these jackasses being tortured by Uday and Kusay whenever they lost in the past? Why are they against the man who has allowed them to lead more civilized lives?
I think the biggest mistake we made in Iraq is assuming that everyone in the world wants western-style democracy. The lesson, as it turns out, it that some people are in dire need of being oppressed.
They're going to be at the RNC with their own banner, unlike at the DNC.
I hope that issue of SI is circulated widely to every American soldier in Iraq.
I want someone to conduct a poll, "What do Americans think of Iraqis?" I,, for one, have learned to truly detest them and I don't give a flying fig what becomes of the creeps. I'm sure I'm not the only American who feels that way.
AT the RNC? how very unfortunate...Ah well, may be they'll see the errors of their ways... right /s
The problem with Arab men is that they're all macho bravado, but no brains. A deadly combination. Their pride is hurt that they had to be saved by us. I say screw em. Let Saddam back. I think these bastards deserve him.
Ok, and I realize that this coach perhaps doesn't speak for everyone, and that this comes for SI, so maybe there's more positive quotes left out, but I hear that and just shake my head. In any case, I'm still going to root for them, the country needs a win.
Gratitude is one of the most fleeting emotions.
I recently returned from an assignment in Iraq- one of my Iraqi friends sent me the following message (please bear with the spelling/grammatical errors):
hi my friend
don't be upset cause these fools they uneducated people cause they don't understand and they don't want understand that iraq needs time to be good state. iraq really needs time and work to be good state sadam damaged every thing he damaged the iraqi people too and the iraqi people have to work with americans to get iraq better.. i like the americans so that i work with them and i would like to be with them all my life.
Perhaps--in That regard--the Cultures are Similar.
One can understand how a Totally Male-Dominated "Macho" Culture might be psychologically unable to accept a "Boon" from a Superior Culture!
If we are dealing with such a "Macho" culture, we've "got our Work cut out for us!!"
The silence of "Good people" is overwhelming.
"Moderate Muslims", "Grateful Iraqis". So silent they are.
Even if they exist, they have no influence and no power.
Sooner or later, Idealism must stop and Pragmatism must be the deciding factor. Iraq government will revert back to what it has been--rule by force. Wrong people, wrong place, wrong time.
Northern Kurds seem to appreciate us, we should maintain a presence with them. South is Kuwait and nearby, Saudi Arabia. I'll bet they both would want us around--in Kuwait, of course.
Time to pack up and adjust our forces. We rid the world of Saddam. We have given a country a new start. Those were idealistic accomplishments. Time to adjust.
its a bit out of context but i think of this sometime when i am bending over backwards to help people who don't appreciate it....as jesus said,
"Don't give pearls to swine! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you."
i still think we had to go to iraq for many reasons but am not surprised when ungrateful people don't say thank you.
i am sure there are many more grateful people in iraq than there are ungrateful. however, you have a generation of people that have grown up under this kind of tyranny--it would take a long time to overcome that. i think it has been said that former slaves make the most tyrannical masters.
What a bunch of ingrates. If it weren't for us they
would be facing a hard time if they lost.
sounds like someone is afraid that GWB will get a big applause....on the world stage.....
..."...former slaves make the most tyrannical masters."...
I haven't heard that before. But I do know that Tyrannical-Bosses who are successful are frequently regarded as 'role models' by many of those who worked for them. College and HS Football coaches, for example.
and no good deed goes unpunished.

Pork producers must determine when to sell pigs, which and how many pigs to sell, and to which packer(s) to sell them. We model the decision-making problem as a linear mixed-integer program that determines the marketing strategy that maximizes expected annual profit. By discretizing the barn population into appropriate weight and growth categories, we formulate an mixed-integer program that captures the effect of stocking space and shipping disruption on pig growth. We consider marketing to multiple packers via shipping policies reflecting operational sorting constraints. Utilizing data from Cargill Animal Nutrition, we implement the model to obtain solutions that characterize significant strategic departures from commonly-implemented industry rules-of-thumb and that possess the potential to increase profitability in an industry characterized by narrow profit margins.

Information Loss as a Foundational Principle for the Second Law of Thermodynamics

In a previous paper (Duncan, T.L., Semura, J.S. in Entropy 6:21, 2004) we considered the question, "What underlying property of nature is responsible for the second law?" A simple answer can be stated in terms of information: The fundamental loss of information gives rise to the second law. This line of thinking highlights the existence of two independent but coupled sets of laws: Information dynamics and energy dynamics. The distinction helps shed light on certain foundational questions in statistical mechanics. For example, the confusion surrounding previous "derivations" of the second law from energy dynamics can be resolved by noting that such derivations incorporate one or more assumptions that correspond to the loss of information. In this paper we further develop and explore the perspective in which the second law is fundamentally a law of information dynamics.

As expected it hides the content and prompts the reader for a password.
When you enter in the password though...
you end up at a blank page.
The address bar indicates I'm looking at wp-pass.php
I edited the file and tried to echo out wp_get_referer() ... it didn't display anything.
If I go back the post and refresh - the content displays so the password did "process".

Anybody have any ideas?

The Famagusta region
Liopetri is a great location and the perfect base to explore the island. Head South to the nearest blue Flag beach of Ayia Thekla. For a great family day out the famous Ayia Napa water park is a few minutes further. All along the coast lie many splendid beaches such as Konnas Bay, Macronissos, or the famous Nissi beach for the young and the hip.
Those wanting some lively nightlife should head into Ayia Napa or Protaras, where there are plenty of bars, restaurants and nightclubs to keep you entertained. Parillimini is the largest community in the district, and is named after the seasonal lake which forms between here and Sotira. Parillimini today combines the advantages of a traditional village with the amenities of a contemporary town. There are a number of unspoiled tavern's known for their delicious local cuisine. Modern shops such as Benetton, Gucci, DKNY, Calvin Klein, Converse and M&S sit aside individual boutiques, excellent home wares and old stores; traditional coffee shops mix it with subtle, cool lounge bars, and the main thoroughfares with traffic lights are crossed by narrow streets towered over by old, venetian-style houses.
Take all this and add beautifully constructed modern churches overlooking the crumbling architecture of the older places of worship, standing proudly beside their mellowed stone and fading mosaics. While you savour this rich mixture of ancient and modern, enjoy your coffee in a modern café while listening to the afternoon church service and the harmony of the church bells as they ring out across the old square. Continue on past Paralimini and you are soon on the East coast where an abundance of beaches and coves await you, from Firemans Cove to Penera with calm waters that are ideal for toddlers. For days out there are daily boat trips from the neighbouring Paralimini fishing shelter. A National Forest Park is at the south-eastern end of the island. This unique area has its natural beauty but also offers a wide range of interests such as cycling, riding, climbing, air sports, and hiking.
There are about 300 plant species in the area. Also observed in the area are foxes, hares and various species of bats, reptiles and butterflies. To date, 9 trails have been constructed in Cavo Greco - Paralimni area. For most of the visitors it is a thrilling experience to climb to the top, where you can enjoy the magnificent views or even watch a spectacular sunset. The surrounding Red Soil villages of Avgorou, Sotira, Vyrasoulles, Frenaros and Dherynia are all full of history, take the open top Red Bus tour which will give you an insight into the history of the Famagusta region, or spend a day on the tour to Famagusta City to explore inside the Venetian Walls. Further afield, the capital Nicosia is about an hours drive away, or for some fresh cool mountain air, head for the Troodos mountains. A bus service has recently started, which can take you to Ayia Napa, Protaras, Paralimin and many of the surrounding villages and as far afield as Larnaca.
Liopetri is just a 10 minute drive away from the city of Paralimni which offers a wide range of facilities one would expect from a city including large supermarkets, bars, restaurants, banks etc.
Trips to paralimni offer that city break atmosphere where contemporary boutiques stand adjacent to distressed old tavern's and where your senses are treated to the scent of fresh coffee, the sound of church bells and the interaction of people traversing the square. Here you will also find the large scale supermarkets of Kokinnos, Lidls,and Carrefour.
Just a 6 minute drive from the complex is the world famous Nissi Beach where the 'azure blue' Mediterranean sea await your arrival.
Snorkelling around the secluded clearwater coves of Cape Greko is popular and you will see water sport excursions and boat trips to the uninhabited city of Famagusta advertised widely throughout the region.
Water World (water park) is a family favorite and is a short journey from Liopetri.
Whether you prefer the bustling night life or evening seafront walks with the family Agia Napa & Protaras are a short distance away

through my lens
Born and raised in the country side of Holland, with yearly trips in the summer to southern Switzerland during my childhood, I started my real travel experiences during my study days. Traveled on a shoe string to places like Ireland, Turkey, and the United States. In those days backpacking and camping.
When I started working after I had worked in Holland for 1.5 years the travel bug bit me real hard and in between jobs I went to South-Africa, Cape Town area and backpacked there and started doing some adventure sports...
after this trip I moved to Malaysia for my new job. Did some projects in China, Shanghai and short one in Taipei and fell in love with Asia. My company then posted me back in Holland and when I was back in the office there, with dreary weather, and no project at hand, I took 3 months unpaid leave. Of course, to go traveling!
That trip I started of in Shanghai, visiting my Chinese friends that I had hanged out with during my working time there. Traveled a bit with a few of them who could take leave and then I headed off on my own along the silk route all the way across to the Pakistan border. Went to the beautiful Hindukush mountain range along the Karakoram highway, still one of the most interesting and beautiful places I visited. From there to India, Delhi, up to Kathmandu where I joined a 5.5 weeks tour through Tibet. Not for the faint-hearted, it was camping out in the wild, albeit with tour guide and cook who would find a suitable place with streaming water. One of the most amazing places ever. The 3 day trekking around the mount Kailash was one never to forget. I would say, marking the start of the next phase in my life.
After this trip, back in an interesting project at work in Amsterdam. But I couldn't stop thinking about Asia, how at home I had felt there with the culture and life style. After working for another few months (recover my funding of the trip), decided to make a move. I quit my job, packed a suitcase and booked a flight to Singapore. There I stayed with friends for 3 weeks and looked around for a job. That was in the year 2000, the Asian crisis had come to an end and the IT industry was booming. I had no problem landing a job and started working in Singapore soon after.
Though work in Singapore is exhausting at times, it also brought me to new places. I did some projects in Brunei, Indonesia, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong. And still had some chance to take leave once in a while to travel to the nearby countries, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, China, India for leisure trips.
I also picked up scuba diving in 2006, so I found a new reason to travel more... the world underwater is just amazing...
My upcoming trip will be to Thailand, when I'm having a friend over from Holland. We will be going to Bangkok - Kanchanaburi - Phuket and counting down! early July 2008...

After almost a year of updating to the latest app, finding it too buggy and then going back to an old version (3.2.4) that worked on my iPad 2, I was finally able to update to the latest version (3.5.1) without disappointment.
On every previous update I was experiencing crashes and freezes. The crashes seemed to be caused by various actions, but the freezes (at 11 sec) were mostly caused by playing videos with high data rates or bitrates of over 2900kbps or 3000kbps respectively. Much to my surprise, the high data rates where not a problem for the old version (3.2.4).
Well obviously I recently tried updating the app again and much to my surprise, it works flawlessly. And it has many nice features the old one didn't. But I'm going to hold onto version 3.2.4 just in case. :)
Thanks again to the Plex guys who have been working on it diligently and got the bugs out.

Record Dividend Lifts Cheapest Stock Gazprom: Russia Overnight
The prospect of a record dividend payout is bolstering OAO Gazprom, the world's biggest natural gas producer and the cheapest Russian stock traded in the U.S.
State-controlled Gazprom climbed the most this month in New York yesterday, as futures expiring in June on Moscow's RTS Index rose 0.6 percent to 158,020. Russia's gas export monopoly traded for 3.6 times estimated earnings on April 11, the least since Feb. 1 and three times cheaper than the valuation for American depositary receipts of PetroChina Co., China's second-largest oil refiner.
Gazprom's ADRs sank 6.3 percent last month as the government floated the prospect of boosting taxes on the gas industry to pay for election promises made during President-elect Vladimir Putin's campaign. Management of the Moscow-based company yesterday recommended doubling its 2011 dividend from the previous year. The 8.97 ruble (30 cents) payout, the most ever according to six years of data compiled by Bloomberg, compares with an average 2.22 rubles between 2006 and 2011.
"This is a good sign that it has increased because Gazprom has been paying nothing in dividends," Hawk Sunshine, who manages $300 million in assets, including Gazprom stock, at brokerage IFC Metropol in Moscow, said by phone yesterday. "Maybe this is a sign of things to come. It's a small sign but a noticeable signal of potential improvement."
Gazprom's ADRs gained 1.6 percent to $11.98 yesterday, the most since March 30. The stock traded at a 0.2 percent premium to the Moscow shares. Gazprom lost 0.1 percent to 175.91 rubles, or $5.98, on the Micex index yesterday.
Gazprom Valuation
The Bloomberg Russia-US Equity Index of Russian companies traded in the U.S. rose 1.4 percent to 105.51 yesterday, the highest level since April 5. Gazprom, Russia's biggest company, is the cheapest stock on the Bloomberg Russia-US Equity measure, with OAO Lukoil trading at 4.4 times estimated earnings and OAO Mechel at 5.3 times.
Putin, who will take up his third term as president in May, has pledged to increase government spending by as much as 4.8 trillion rubles, or 5 percent of economic output, through 2018, according to estimates by London-based Capital Economics Ltd.
The new government should consider "drawing additional revenue from the gas industry through the increase, and by evening out, domestic prices and foreign prices," Finance Minister Anton Siluanov told reporters on Feb. 18. The Russian government gets about 50 percent of revenue from the energy sector and oil and gas make up around 17 percent of gross domestic product.
Gazprom's tax burden may increase by as much as $22 billion a year over the next five years, analysts from Alfa Bank, Russia's biggest private lender, said in a report on March 19.
No Rally Ahead
While the prospect of a record dividend is "good news" for Gazprom investors, it won't translate into a rally for the stock, according to Ronald Paul Smith, an oil and gas analyst at Citigroup Inc. in Moscow.
"The stock will remain under pressure until we find out what's going on with the taxation side," Smith said by phone yesterday. "Until we have clarity on that, it'll be difficult for the stock to move up very much."
United Co. Rusal, the world's largest aluminum producer, climbed 3.4 percent to HK$5.77 in Hong Kong trading as of 11:19 a.m. local time. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index gained 0.8 percent today as concerns eased over a rocket launch by North Korea after the projectile broke up and fell into the sea.
Russia ETF Gains
Oil, Russia's biggest export earner, rose for the second day yesterday on speculation central banks will stimulate economic growth with supportive monetary policies. Crude for May delivery gained 0.9 percent to $103.64 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent oil for May settlement added 1.3 percent to $121.71 on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange, while Urals crude, Russia's chief export blend, climbed 1 percent to $118.30.
The Market Vectors Russia ETF, a U.S.-traded fund that holds Russian shares, climbed 1.8 percent to $30.34. The RTS Volatility Index, which measures expected swings in the index futures, lost 0.2 percent to 32 points in U.S. trading.
VimpelCom Ltd. the world's sixth-largest wireless operator by subscribers, climbed 1.4 percent to $10.75 in New York, the biggest advance since March 28.
VimpelCom's subsidiary, Orascom Telecom Holding SAE, North Africa's biggest mobile phone company, is disputing the $1.3 billion fine imposed by an Algerian court against its local unit for allegedly violating foreign-exchange regulations and submitted an arbitration notice against the North African nation, according to a statement e-mailed yesterday.
RTS Advances
Algeria is in talks to buy a stake in the Djezzy unit from VimpelCom, which merged with Orascom last year. It is still discussing a purchase price for the 51 percent stake, Finance Minister Karim Djoudi said in an interview on March 29.
Russia's 30-stock Micex Index lost 0.3 percent to 1,501.63 in Moscow yesterday, while the RTS gauge advanced 0.3 percent to 1,620.19.
OAO Mobile TeleSystems, Russia's largest mobile operator, gained 2.5 percent to $18.30 in New York, the most since March 13. The company said yesterday its board recommended paying 72 percent of net income as dividends for last year.
MTS, as the company is known, said its board recommended paying a total of 30.4 billion rubles ($1 billion) in an e-mailed statement yesterday. It may pay 14.71 rubles a share or $1.01 per American depositary receipt, the company said.
MTS's shares on Russia's Micex Index fell 0.3 percent to 230.55 rubles, or $7.83. The ADRs were at a 17 percent premium over the company's Moscow-listed shares, the most since April 5, data compiled by Bloomberg show. One ADR is equal to two ordinary shares.

Cool Crossing on Seabourn Quest This trip had a disappointing beginning as our landing at Miami airport was delayed by a storm. The sky remained heavy and threatening looking for the whole time we were there. Transfer to the ship was easy and we boarded straight away and were greeted by our CD Heather clancy, with whom we have sailed before. Heather's assistant was Judy Lombino an old friends. We also met a charming woman from NY who we had previously become friends with on Seabourn Pride three years ago. Lunch was in the Colonnade and suites were ready very soon. We felt at home! Suites on Seabourn are roomy and comfortable. The bathroom has twin wash basins with shelving...

Buzz, Woody, Superman, Dora the Explorer and Scooby Doo all
showed up to Queenstown for one night only at the City Impact
Church on Saturday.
Over 150 parents and children attended the Toy Story 3 show
staged by the church to hear the story of Christmas with one
or two little twists.
The characters in the show battled it out to find who was the
favoured toy, but they all took a step back when 30 little
ones stole the show by stepping on stage to show off some
neat dance moves they had been practising.
