IP Lifecycle Management
The IP Lifecycle domain eliminates costly product development errors by enabling improved cross-functional product design, manufacturing planning and performance simulation. Within the IP Lifecycle domain are the following sub-processes: IP Work-in-Progress, IP Asset Release, and IP Classification and Re-Use.
ENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management
ENOVIA® CPG Accelerator™ for Integrated Product Management enables Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) companies to use structured specifications to build and maintain multi-level formula, packaging and other kinds of bills-of-material (BOMs).
ENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management enables CPG companies to manage formula, packaging and other kinds of BOM data in a single, centralized, scalable structured data environment. In the CPG industry, BOM management, as a superset to specification management, is the foundation for Product Data Management (PDM). BOM management is the logical extension of specification management. Specification management enables enterprises to better manage and standardize the development, review, approval, and distribution of product specifications, including those related to packaging, raw materials, and formulas. BOM management allows enterprises to combine specifications into logical material hierarchies that define product structure.
With this product, research and development (R&D) can define any kind of CPG product specification and BOM including, but not limited to, formula, raw material, packaging components, and work instructions. Its specification development and change management processes have been designed specifically to ensure all impacted stakeholders are kept informed and given an opportunity to review the BOM/specification before its release. As a result, CPG companies can bring products to market faster while maximizing re-use of common specifications to reduce costs.
ENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management can be further extended to manage manufacturing site-specific BOMs, BOM costing, formula optimization, materials compliance, dynamic label copy generation, and primary/secondary packaging design tools (bill of packaging). To ensure consistency between R&D and purchasing, users can integrate this product with transactional systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP).
In sum, ENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management ensures that "a single version of the truth" is shared across the extended enterprise for product data.
- Build and maintain multi-level BOM structures from centrally-managed and approved components
- Realize economies of scale across a distributed supply chain through raw material and supplier rationalization
- Enforce quality and regulatory standards on materials and finished goods originating from multiple countries of origin (COO) and being applied in products across multiple countries of sale (COS)
- Execute change order requests holistically with "where used" analysis
- Manage Manufacturing Equivalent Parts (MEPS) as trade names with their corresponding supplier per location
- Include optional ENOVIA products to manage manufacturing site-specific BOMs, BOM costing, materials compliance, and primary/secondary packaging design tools (bill of packaging)
Product Data TemplatesTemplates drive standards throughout the enterprise by driving the format and definition of all new product data. Templates define attributes and/or sections as "mandatory" versus "optional" and specify which sections should be included in the internal PDF and which sections should be included in the external PDF. In addition, it is possible to define any number of different views of the data. Templates are also under change control. The change process allows the enterprise to notify owners of all derived product specifications of the change in order to take appropriate action.
Support Organizational and Regional DifferencesCompanies can manage product data globally or according to business unit and region. This allows companies to include global teams in the review and approval process. The review and approval process includes electronic signatures that comply with United States FDA (Food and Drug Administration) Part 11 guidelines for audit trails and authentication, Efficient global, regional, and local product specification distribution are benefits also.
Change Management ProcessCPG companies have complex organizational charts focused on their worldwide brands. Automated approval templates ensure that all necessary approvals throughout the CPG organization are obtained as part of a product data item's release process. ENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management provides a change management process that enables manufacturing compliance. These best practices include an optional change request process, which qualifies, analyzes, reviews, and approves change requests for released data (formula, assemblies and technical specifications). The change request process ensures that users follow a common process and the right level of analysis and oversight is employed. Only "approved" changes are implemented, thus reducing the quantity and time associated with implementing the changes. Proposed changes are sometimes too complex to implement as a single change request, and the development team requires more implementation flexibility. A change request can be split into multiple change orders to allow the change to be implemented as work processes dictate. The change order process applies the dynamic approval matrix on the affected components for the approval process. The approval matrix templates are predefined for the different part and specification types with additional selection criteria such as scope, owning responsibilities, etc. The approval matrix templates are assigned automatically to the data during the creation process and are invoked during the approval process.
Dynamic Notification ListSubscriptions notify users of changes and other events associated with the data. . Email notifications are sent when data is at the approval stage, preparing users throughout the organization for the upcoming changes. This gives complete visibility at a business unit level to key stakeholders so that they understand the change impact to complete products or production lines, The benefits are more effective planning and reduction of downtime when changing materials or components.
Integrated BOM ManagementENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management provides an intuitive BOM building process that allows organizations to develop validated, structured product bills from reusable product data components. The "where-used" analysis capability allows for a comprehensive understanding across products of the change impact on any of the component BOM items. . Users can structure BOMs for even the most complex products with thousands of parts organized across many levels of hierarchy. The BOM assembly structure automatically updates when new component revisions are released. An integrated structure browser allows users to navigate and edit multiple levels easily. Comprehensive BOM editing capabilities include copying components to and from existing assemblies, and replacing, adding, removing, and re-sequencing components in the BOM. Mass change operations automate complex BOM changes that affect many parent assemblies. Differences between BOMs can be listed in a detailed text format or an intuitive highlighted side-by-side format. Support for preparing a BOM for manufacturing is also provided. Users can define the BOM with location specific preferred suppliers and component parts and provide a list of engineering approved "alternate" or "substitute" parts that can be used by manufacturing instead of the primary engineering part, BOM markup capabilities are provided to facilitate the change management process. It is also possible to manage Manufacturing Equivalent Parts (MEPs) as trade names and their corresponding supplier per location.
Constituent/Ingredients ManagementIngredients can be managed along with CAS (Chemical Abstracts Service) and EINECS (European INventory of Existing Chemical Substances) information. ENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management provides different flavors of constituent management: - Part constituent management (requires ENOVIA® Materials Compliance Central™ and ENOVIA® X-BOM Materials Compliance license) - MEPS constituent management (requires ENOVIA Materials Compliance Central and ENOVIA® X-BOM Materials Compliance license)
Specification and Part SearchENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management provides a powerful full-text search capability allowing users to search for parts, specifications, and other documents. Users can navigate through the parts or specifications taxonomy and narrow down the results by filtering on metadata. Parts and specifications can be searched by constituents, organizations, suppliers and trade names, Keyword search can be performed against both metadata and file attachments.
The Role of ENOVIA V6 and PLM 2.0ENOVIA CPG Accelerator for Integrated Product Management supports PLM 2.0, product lifecycle management online for everyone, and the ENOVIA V6 values: global collaboration innovation, single PLM platform for intellectual property (IP) management, online creation and collaboration, ready to use PLM business processes, and lower cost of ownership.

Skip to comments.Glenn Beck Gives Obama The Silent Treatment
Posted on 05/05/2010 7:40:07 AM PDT by rdb3
In a visually compelling format Glenn Beck heaped justified ridicule on one of the many false precepts of progressivism, to wit, that it is somehow unfair that some people have more money than others.
To do this, Beck gave President Obama (and his audience) the silent treatment on his TV show. (video link)
As a video clip showed the president saying
Were not trying to push financial reform because we begrudge success thats fairly earned. I mean I do think at a certain point youve made enough money.
Beck said nothing.
He went over to his chalkboard and began filling in how much money Obamas friends and cronies have:
George Soros: $14 billion.
Oprah Winfrey: $245 million [that sounds really low for Oprah -MV].
Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton: $35 million.
Al Gore: $100 million (estimated).
Jeff Immelt: $5.1 million (a year).
Andy Stern: $306,000 (a year).
Franklin Raines: $65.3 million.
John Edwards: $30 million.
Michael Moore: $70 million [or so it appears -- it's hard to see the chalk from a long view on the TV screen -MV].
Throughout the segment Obamas voice saying, I do think at a certain point youve made enough money plays over and over again.
At the end Beck writes on a separate chalkboard
Mr President,
Why dont you ask your friends to set the example on how much is too much?
Let the first left-winger who is willing to draw a line between unacceptably high levels of wealth and acceptable levels of wealth donate his or her fortune to help reduce the national debt.
Truly, truly Brilliant!
"and some old Disc Jockeys shall lead them..."
I saw that program and it is why I love this guy. Keep calling the hypocritical bastards out Glenn.
Wondering if this segment is on youtube. Dang...don't know how to word that search.
Beck generally is.
Over three minutes of silence. It was brilliantly done.
The creativity for that show is the best in the business.
Easy, if the other guy has more, then that is too much.
It's simple: first you divide the world into those that produce something useful and those who don't. Second, take all the wealth generated by those who produce....
Watch it here.
He missed a zero. She is worth $2.45 Billion.
Sometimes that Beck guy can be really effective.
Yesterday's show is not on there or it's buried...(there's alot of his shows on there!)
Thank you both!
Ha! I did that with my idiot millionaire cousin a couple of years ago.
"If you are SO concerned about the 'poor people' you say bush and the government are screwing over why don't you just give more of YOUR money to the IRS? There's no rule that says you can't give more to the government than what the IRS says you owe. Come on! Set the example!"
His $4 million mansion is none too shabby:
A question: does it not matter at all that the amount of money one has is not nearly so relevant as how one obtained it?
I just go with "Everything Obama says is a Lie". Things fall into place after that assumption.
Who cares what Glenn makes? that's not the point.. Glenn isn't the one telling you that you make too much money.
Progressivism, liberalism, collectivism, Obamaism ... all just another name for HYPOCRISY.
A good many of the anti Glenn right are actually closet marxists.
"Glenn conveniently ommited the fact that he makes $32 million per year and has a net worth that has been reported to exceed $100 million."
It is not Beck who wants to cap income and redistribute wealth. It is Obama and his supporters. The list was comprised of very wealthy supporters of Obama and his policies.
The difference, which you don't appear to appreciate, is that Beck isn't telling anyone "I do think at a certain point youve made enough money". How much Beck makes (or has made) is irrelevant to the salient point.
Beck's personal wealth is immaterial. He isn't the one that's trying to claim there should be a cap on how much money someone can earn.
And because the Zer0 admonished the press, or was it just Fox news, to get their facts right; Glenn keeps checking the red phone to see if it's still working. 'If I'm wrong about anything, Mr. President, give me a call and set the record straight.'
So far, nothing but silence.
Beck is not the one trying to 'share the wealth', insisting that the rich pay 'their fair share', destroying capitalism or controlling executive pay and bonuses.
If he were, you might have something there.
Go sit in the corner...
There are two Beck clips at this link:
that are important, in case you didn't see that show.
Glen Beck is not telling you that there is some point where you have made enough money. The preso is stating this and wants to take it away from you. Glen wants you to keep it if you've earned it properly!
Stealing doesn't count!
Did you miss that?
BUT, But, but..... Wealth caps aren't supposed to apply to the elites are they? Are They? /sarc....
They're only for people we don't like, or we don't agree with ....like....uh... Republicans/Conservatives/right wing extremists......you know wingnuts.......LOLOLOLOL /do I really need to tag as Sarcasm?
But Glenn isn't the one running around the country telling folks they have "made enough" money either.
You will get lots of symphathy here, /www.democraticunderground.com/
why not go give them a visit.
Yes, but Beck is not suggesting that there is a limit to earnings, so he's not hypocritical like 0bummer & Friends.
Wren't the Obama's recently said to be worth on the order of $5,000,000? Not exactly pikers.
Obama thinking:So you just exposed your self as a non-liberal the party is taking names,you have family in the mother land.
Oprah has always had close ties with Obama. I said a couple of months ago I had no doubts Oprah is connected with the mob...she is closely tied to them like fingernails and flesh. She also lives in Chicago in the middle of the nest of the mob, which wouldnt prove anything any other day other than she does have close ties to Obama and his crooked friends.
Birds of a feather...etc.
Glenn ISN'T COMPLAINING that people make too much....Obama did!!
Glenn is not the one claiming that at some point you have too much money. He is not the hypocrite.
Glenn Beck: Mr. President, Ask Your Friends To Set The Example
When I watched the show in question I thought maybe Glenn missed his cue, what a brillant move playing Obamas words repeating over and over.

Robert W. Wilson (philanthropist)

New York City, New York, U.S.
|Alma mater
|Businessman, philanthropist
|Marilyn Wilson (divorced)
Robert Warne Wilson (November 3, 1926 – December 23, 2013) was an American hedge fund manager, philanthropist and art collector.
Born in Detroit, Wilson gained his undergraduate degree at Amherst College and his masters from the University of Michigan. He attended the University of Michigan law school, but later left to work as a securities analyst. He founded his own hedge fund Wilson & Associates in 1969 and retired in 1986. By 2000 he was worth an estimated $800 million.[1]
According to BusinessWeek he gave away over four hundred million dollars, and according to others more than $600 million,[1] to environmental and preservation organizations including the Nature Conservancy and the World Monuments Fund.[2] "The idea of 'But for my money, it would be gone forever' appeals," he once remarked.[3] After his death, an email correspondence with Bill Gates revealed that Wilson opposed The Giving Pledge, calling it "practically worthless".[4]
An avid art collector at the time, Wilson had been on the board of trustees of the Whitney Museum of American Art for over thirty years.[5] His name surfaced during a dispute between John L. Stewart (with whom he had formed an art partnership) and Stewart's former assistant Neil W. Stevenson (who went on to become an art dealer himself) and said "John thinks that Neil possesses some pieces of art that belong to us. And Neil thinks John owes him some money. And I suspect both of those statements are true, and why the matter can't be settled is beyond me."[6]
In his will Wilson left his art collection to the Whitney with the exception of James Rosenquist's 1997 painting, "The Meteor Hits the Swimmer's Pillow".[7]
He was chairman of the New York City Opera board from 1981 to 1993.[1] Wilson was passionate about criminal justice reform, and was a member of the American Civil Liberties Union for over four decades.[8]
Wilson died on December 23, 2013 at the age of 87, after leaping from the 16th floor of his apartment at The San Remo on Central Park West in the New York City borough of Manhattan. He had suffered a stroke in the month of June and another in the month prior to his suicide.[3][9]
Wilson was openly gay[7] but had been married to the former Marilyn Wilson and was divorced from her. He had no children.[1] He was survived by his brother William.[10]

Black History Month dates back to 1976, when "Negro History Week" was extended to the month of February. That year doesn't seem so long ago, but when we stop to consider where we are in 2009, it's shocking to see how far we've come. Along with celebrating black history, we're also celebrating the fact that the NAACP will celebrate its 100th anniversary on February 12. We're rejoicing that a man of color now occupies the most powerful position in the country. It might seem like social change happens slowly, but witnessing such momentous events in our lifetime makes its occurrence undeniable.
Though Obama's election ignited a nation with optimism, it is just as inspirational that a woman came so close to the presidency. We have much to be grateful for this month, and it seems essential to recognize the achievements of some of the African American women whose pioneering efforts made this groundbreaking election possible.
1. Sojourner Truth
Sojourner was born into slavery with the name Isabella Baumfree. She changed her name after escaping from her owner and became a Christian preacher while living with a family in New York. After the state's Emancipation Act was passed, she became a vehement and vocal supporter of abolition and women's rights. She traveled the country giving speeches, including a famous one entitled Ain't I a Woman? that emphasized the strength and power of women and the need for equality between the sexes.

- Threading beads on Soft Flex wire one by one can take a long time--because of its soft and flexible nature. But now Soft Flex has designed a unique needle that grips the end of the wire, allowing the quicker picking up and loading of beads.
- If you work with big, hollow beads, this tool is an invaluable asset. Since hollow beads have no channel, there is nothing to guide the wire out of the bead and the wire often curls inside. Soft Flex Speeder Beaders will make stringing these beads quick and painless.
- The Speeder Beader is a needle with a hollow channel at one end. Push Soft Flex or Soft Touch beading wire into the pan at a 30-45 degree angle. The pan will guide the wire into the hollow part of the Speeder Beader. Beads slip over the Speeder Beader and onto your wire quickly and easily.
- Simple directions and a small diagram are included on the back of package.
- You will receive ONE Speeder Beader needle inside a protective tube. Tubes are color coded, in case you use several sizes.
- Black Cap fits .010 Inch Soft Flex. Needle is 2.25 Inches long
- Please note: Because the Soft Flex fits inside the needle, the needle is slightly wider than .010 inches in diameter. Bead holes must be slightly larger than .010 Inches (.26mm) for the needle to fit through.

Oh I'll grant all of that - but when these schools routinely graduate
functional illiterates who can not even fill out a basic job
application, I feel they are shortchanging an entire generation. Some
high pressure programs even put their players on steroids. I have a
major problem w/ that....

Generally, it allows installation on one machine only. So, while in principle you can use the same CD, you need a new license.
However, the CD's come in different variations. If it's an OEM CD it might refuse to work with a non-OEM-license you can buy with Microsoft.
Hope this helps.
I have Windows 98 on my desktop computer. If I use my Windows 98 disk to install Windows 98 on my laptop, and then use an upgrade to Windows XP that I have available through LSU, will this cause a problem? The upgrade is only available if you have a previous version of Windows on your computer. I'm just thinking Windows will somehow detect that I used the same disk for both computers, even after I upgrade the version on my laptop. Anyone know how this might work out?

Wouldn't it be great to achieve your goals effortlessly? Wouldn't you want to rid yourself of all of the barriers to your goals once and for all?
You may be wondering what a "goal barrier" is? Simply put, they are the things that prevent you from achieving your goals. A goal barrier could be one tiny thing or it could be a mixture of things. It does not really matter because just one belief or one recurring negative thought is enough to block your goal. In this article you will discover several reasons goals are obstructed. As you are reading this article, evaluate each one and see if you recognize any of them in your own life.
What could be the reasons why people do not achieve their goals? What prevents people from receiving all of the things that they really want in life and/or business?
Many people struggle with trying to achieve their goals and there are a myriad of primary reasons why they do not. Following are some of the key reasons why people do not achieve their goals:
- Believing that they have attempted everything or that there are no other options. The challenge with this fabricated belief is that they person that holds it will not try anything new. They are not open to receiving new ideas. Basically, they have given up. We all know what happens to a quitter-they will not prosper. This "I have tried everything" attitude creates an obstacle that prevents new ideas into your life, even if they are right in front of your nose. Most likely, you will not even notice when a small shift could change everything. Holding this attitude repels ideas and the attraction energy. If you feel that you have tried everything, I urge you to think again, and again, and again. It is good to be open to everything and not be attached to anything. The following statement is VERY important to goal achieving: There is no need for you to know HOW you will achieve your goal. You simply need to decide WHAT you want, stay focused on what you want, have faith that you will get it, and it will show up. That is it! Really simple, right?
- Not believing they are worthy of the goal-not feeling deserving of it. This comes from a low self esteem. Make your first love, self love. Know that you have tremendous worth and that you do deserve great things-unconditionally! You must believe this! You must know it.
- Not having goals that are clear. "Wanting more money" as a goal could possibly bring you just $1 more added to your wallet and your goal will be achieved. If you know what you want, be specific. I would also like to suggest that you add the words "this or something better" or "this or something better that will be beneficial to all" as part of your goal statement. People who do not write their goals down, or do not have goals, or they have a goal that they continuously change their mind about (scatter-brained), do not achieve them. While it is fine to change your mind and your goal(s), remember that your goals are energy in motion. The energy is moving in one direction and you will shift the energy in another direction when you change your goal; consequently, you will immediately begin to move in another direction. No worries. This is all a part of the process. Invest some quiet, uninterrupted time and focus on what you want. When you have clarity, commit. Take pen to paper.
- The goals are not a stretch. Most of our growth occurs when we are stretched beyond our comfort zones. Goals that are too easy are not motivating or inspiring. The discomfort that comes when you are out of your comfort zone positions you for growth. Consider becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable.
- Goals seem too unrealistic. This belief really creates a paradox. Although it was possible in 1963 to run a mile in under four minutes, no one believed it except for Roger Bannister. He proved this in 1964. When you believe that your goal is unrealistic and you tend to hold on tight to that belief, you will likely obtain whatever result that will validate your belief! You substantially increase your chances at achieving your goal if you create the belief that it can happen, you intend to make it happen, and you hold that belief. This is not to say that you can go to you will be able to fly off of the top of the Empire State Building just because you believe you will-ridiculous. Unwavering faith moves mountains. As I stated earlier, you do not have to know HOW you will achieve your goal. Your faith in the unknown and will reveal the way to you.
- Dwelling on negative thoughts. All negative thoughts are poisonous and it only takes a little bit of poison to kill". You may have great goal statements and be doing all of the things in order to move towards your goals. But if you have one thought that is negative,only one, you can think of it as planting and nurturing a seed and then pouring poison right on top of it. You can fight this repetitive destructive behavior. Try placing an elastic band on your wrist and monitor your thoughts. Whenever find yourself thinking negatively, snap the elastic. An additional exercise that is effective and powerful exercise would be to write out your goal statement (or a powerful affirmation) no fewer than 60 times per day (three times a day write down your goal 20 times). Monitor your thoughts consistently and really give some thought to what you are thinking about.
- Using the wrong word forms: "I want" rather than "I have" or "I am" when writing or speaking about your goals. When you write and affirm a goal statement that says "I want", the Universe responds with "Yes, indeed you do" and you will continue experiencing the "wanting" of it. Substitute the word "I have" or "I am" to eliminate this goal obstruction.
- Not taking action towards achieving the goal. Yes, we are all energy and we each have the ability to attract our heart's desires to us. However, we also need to be moving toward the goal–taking action. If there is a powerful magnet and a pile of nails and the magnet is too far from the nails, it will not attract them to it. However, when you move the magnet toward the nails, that magnetic power will attract the nails and then the two will be combined. This same principle works for you and those goals of yours. Do engage your magnetic power of attraction and you will then begin to move towards your goals.
- When we do not take care of yourselves physically, goals are slowed down. Poor eating habit, drinking heavily, lack of proper sleep and lack of exercise are some things that will have a dramatic and negative impact upon your goals.
- Judging oneself and their current results and/or judging other people. Beware: this is negative energy and will pull you down.
- Sitting back and waiting to receive but not giving anything. This is totally backward thinking. You must first give and then you will receive. That is one of the universal laws.
- Failing to "act as if" and stepping into that full body experience of already having the goal before you have a physical manifestation.
- Lack of gratitude for what you already have.
While you are working through this list, honestly evaluate whether there is some goal-obstructing behavior that you are currently engaged in. If there is, commit to eliminating it right now and free yourself up to achieve your goals.

A Brick Lane stalwart, Sheba has been knocking out dishes from India, Bangladesh and Pakistan for more than 40 years. It's been in the same family all that time.
The menu is typical curry house fare – think samosas, onion bhajis and tandoori lamb chops to start followed by mains of chicken tikka masala, lamb bhuna, prawn vindaloo and a number of biryani dishes. Signature dishes such as shorisha chicken, lamb noorani and king prawn malabar look interesting.
Drinks include a short selection of wines, pints of Cobra and Kingfisher and lassi. John Smith's is conspicuous by its absence - Sheba was the setting for one of their TV adverts, starring Peter Kay.

Really, really bad service - the staff were so rude and made a scene when we noticed that we had been overcharged on our bill. Overall the food was pretty average. Few bits of meat in a sweet sauce that could well have just come in a jar. Even with our 'special' 20% discount from the sales guy out the front still came to £20 pp for a few curries and some starters. Better, and friendlier, options to be had on Brick Lane
I was looking forward to visiting Sheba, having heard good
things about it from friends. Having already eaten at several of the Brick Lane
curry houses it was interesting to find out that this was one of the originals,
established in 1974.
Knowing that it had won the best curry house award in the Cobra Good Curry Guide 2013, I had high expectations, and am pleased to say that Sheba more than lived up to them.
The staff were great – the perfect balance between being attentive and over-fussy, and our waiter was happy to recommend dishes.
I've always thought the key to getting a good curry is delving into the house specialties and regional dishes on offer and our waiter was happy to make recommendations.
We tried a shafi ghust, which is a traditional Bengalese dish of slow cooked lamb with pumpkin, in a sweet and medium-hot sauce, and a khora bhuna – finely diced slow cooked lamb with fresh herbs.
Both of them were fantastic and cooked to perfection, the meat was melt-in-the-mouth good and it was obvious that everything had been produced from fresh.
As well as its specials I judge a curry house by the quality of its standard sides and starters. The sheek kebabs were also recommended by our waiter and were moist and full of flavour. We also had onion bhaji, vegetable samosas and peshwari nan, which were all very high standard.
Their website says that they attribute their long-lasting success to excellent customer service, comfortable environment and use of premium quality fresh produce. After my visit I would say it is certainly hard to disagree with any of that. It's rare to find a curry house that gets all three of these essential factors spot on, and getting harder in London. But Sheba certainly comes highly recommended from me.
There was glass in the curry dish that landed in my friends mouth. We were not compensated (price reduction etc) for this and when staff offered to replace the dish they repeatedly kept returning to 'check' with us that we really wanted another dish! The restaurant is very small and the staff were inappropriately and physically close to us, leaning on our chairs and 'accidentally' brushing against us. They placed two complimentary chocolates at the end of the meal with the bill when there were 3 of us and then took them away without leaving us a chance to even have one! Lamb was undercooked.

Weekly MMORPG.com columnist Dan Fortier uses this week's MMOWTF to share his own personal opinions on solo play versus group play.
When someone outside looks at the MMO genre they don't see things the same as folks who have been playing for years. The terms like buff, nerf, AoE, and mezz don't mean as much to someone who has never played an online game since they are were rarely applied to the same effects in the old RPGs. (I don't recall ever calling Hold Person a 'root' spell in AD&D) Another misconception that is generally shared by the MMO-less crowd is that a vast majority of MMO gamers choose the genre because they are interested in the social aspect of the games. Why else would someone choose a Massively Multiplayer game over the much prettier, cheaper and more stable single player titles?

As I always said, solo is the single most important aspect of a MMO-RPG; after grouping.
Before tradeskills, before raiding, before PvP...there must be a good, strong, PvE-soloing option.
If devs can't get solo right, they can't get anything right.
Happy soloers provide the raw ressource for appealing grouping. Yeah, a big chunck of them won't group today; but that is cool. Having 100k soloers happy and 500k groupers is better then having no soloers and 200k groupers. Grouping is better when not enforced on soloers. Best soloers should be peoples who solo a lot. Best grouping have to be groupers. There are many ways to achieve this. Happy soloers = better community = happy groupers. You don't want peoples to group because they have to, you want peoples to group because they want to. If Joe Blow is in a poor-piss mood, he is better left alone, soloing. Tomorrow maybe he will group, maybe not.
It is my experience that in a game that is solo friendly, all soloers eventually prefer grouping over soloing at moments...as long as they can commit to grouping. Maybe they won't like me, or groupB. And this is cool, they will group peoples they enjoy grouping; and they will avoid peoples they dislike.
A big part of the problematic come from some geek who took offense that peoples rather solo then group him. But I would prolly prefer soloing over grouping that geek myself. And this come from a grouper. Some peoples are better left alone until they learn how to behave in society. Enforced grouping isn't working, never was, never would.
Peoples need a reason to solo, which is solo-uberness. And they need a reason to group, which is group uberness. Having 1 overall system can only work in a casual setting with no "deep hardcore" desires. Which is cool, but then all paths have to lead to total uberness, including soloing.

Originally posted by KordeshI think you imagine correctly. I certainly dont have time sitting around trying to get a group togeather. When I'm online I want to play. And I've found that I can level up faster solo. I hear the cries of not possible. Sure a group can normally make xp faster than a solo but what about that down time whilst the group is forming. Or the down time because everybody got killed, something that happen rarely to me when I solo play. Or the times when somebody says, afk dinner. Grrrrr.
Now I've grown up, I've got work and relationships to contend with my gaming hobby. There just isn't time left to be wasting 2 hours organizing a 60 man raid to do anything. I would imagine there are quite a few who are in the same boat as I am.

Its rare these days that topics started by staff writers appeal to me or rather that they make any sort of real sense and are written with people with real brains but this one is perfect. As in I agree or rather empathize with the writer. I just don't have the time like I did when I was a teenager or in college to muck around for hours on end with a group everyday all the time.
While i'll never put down raiding because there should be something that everyone can hero worship over (as in so and so's guild did this OMG thats so awsome I wish I had time for that) why should we as people with lives who can only put in a few hours a day maybe even less be punished from good gear? I'm perfectly wiling to take up a quest that requires me to do it by myself and take several days or even weeks to get an item that is on par with raid drops. End Game has in some games become so repeative so tedious and requires dealing with so many people at once that even some hardcore players are sick of it.
When I read about WAR I was like oh my god its going to be WoW with DAoC RvR, then they put more and more out about it and I now I admit I'm on the bandwagon. The fact i don't need a guild or need a group to progress or to even do the big stuff completely appeals to me. I can jump in and have a good time form friendships with people if I want too and not feel I need too. I really wish, no hope that more games (if this built in point system works instead of playing constantly for player given points (DKP or whatever guilds call it these days) ) take a look at what WAR is doing and embrace it. If a player can play and play well do the work even if they dont' live in the game constantly the player should be rewarded by the game!
More MMO's need to reward all players equally even if one way or the other requires more work to get it. (im not saying it should be some outrageous grind but we can't expect things to be handed to us on a silver platter).

WoW is not solo friendly.
It is a soloer trap, not solo friendly at all.
Saying that WoW is solo friendly is like saying a trap with cheese is mouse-friendly. Sure, the cheese is good, sure some mouses may work around and get the cheese. It still isn't the ideal setting for mouses.

Excellent article.
It's unfortunate that developers seem to miss the boat on the concept of solo vs group play. So much potential lost to raid mentality.

I am a quester...always have been. It gives me a sense of purpose and direction while working on them and a feeling of accomplishment once I complete them. But this can be a real hassle with finding groups in MMORPGs.
Most PUGs in games I have played are experience groups. They may do a quest or two along the way if it is easy to get (talk to mob in zone, get quest, randomly slaughter until complete). But if the quest requires doing something far away from the latest hot grinding area, it is tough luck finding comrades, unless the quest results in some uber-reward that everyone wants.
Oh, and I want to comment on the notion that I should just play a single player game. Those games are often too linear. I like quests, but I also like deciding when and in what order to do them. I like the Elder Scrolls games for that reason, but I found Oblivion to be too much like a console game (navigating nested menus designed to controllers drives me batty).
I played many times whit WoW, so I understand that what other peoples says who playing only in solo. Finding a group in this mmo is not a really hard. The other opinion is that you not playing in group, you can't join a guild and you haven't got any friends ingame. So you not received any help.
Hardcore play, yes is the mmo games hardest way, sitting before the computer whole hours (4-5 h) and following the leader's commands is really hard and you getting bored after 1 or 2 hours.
I can't say that I am a big fan of grouping,
I mostly solo for three reasons
1. If I only have three hours to play, I don't really like having to spend an hour of it looking for a group.
2. I feel having to do something in a group makes my accomplishments less important than if I did it myself. Grouping makes my character seem less useful and powerful.
3. This is probably most important: it seems that as my character gets to higher levels there are more dungeons/instances to do or even worse, raiding, and the more he has to rely on other players to survive. It seems that all that leveling was for nothing, now that my health recharges slower than ever and I need a full team to even think about tackling a dugeon. Yet when I was level two I could solo stuff so easy, I actually felt more powerful by comparison. MMOs should really put the grouping stuff at the beginning and give players the ability to solo as a reward as they get more powerful.
Don't you worry little buddy. You're dealing with a man of honor. However, honor requires a higher percentage of profit
I'm by no means an MMORPG social butterfly, but I'd say I enjoy grouping a little more than soloing. However, the time commitment involved in raiding and dungeon crawls doesn't always make it an option. But as the author of this article pointed out, even when I am soloing, I do like the unique sense of life that is present in MMORPGs that is just not there in the static world of single player games. Even if I'm running around the woods killing goblins by myself, I like that sense of other players running around on their own quests and the possibility for random, spontaneous things to occur around me in-game.
If there are a bunch of solo players all hoping to complete the same objective, there's always the possibility they will A) politely stay out of each other's way, team up to reach their goal collectively, or C) act like antisocial immature pricks with only their own motivations in mind. Granted, option C happens all too frequently and usually results in me cursing at my screen, but it's a much more exciting array of options than the simply point + click + kill of single player titles. I personally feel that casual grouping is the life's blood of MMORPGs, and its the way I first met many of the players who later would become fellow guildies or good in-game friends.
Hi, I happen to be a big MMORPG fan ever since i discovered them playing the sweet Maple Story, maybe not the best game to star but a nice game in overall, now im a Lineage player and 9Dragons lover, I'm part of a great team of people who have moved from one game o the next and we ussually Solo, hehe, sounds kinda weird, but we share the same killing desire but rarelly hunt in groups, rather we share knowledge of the games we play and so making a great way to pass time. I dont even mind not finding a group if someone else allready told me where to do a great hunt soloing, but i have to agree, soling rewards need to get beter, so a antigruping can have the very same items and skills than the best leader of a guild.
What can I say, I enjoy soloing. Vast freedom to do what you want, where you want, when you can. But to get better end game type rewards, the chain arcs would have to be huge or multiple arcs combining to be worthwhile. Besides it would be an excuss to give more storyline.
Although not a fan of PUGs, I find it inevitable if i do want to make some friends online or better yet quest with some people instead of joining a guild blindly. Some of my best times in MMOs were with a static group in FFXI to get all the advance classes. But the down side to that game was your level progression would creep unless you and a group stay in a corner of a dungeon and grind. Now thats borring! Thankfully most games have gone away from that.

Feast of Saint Louis IX, King of France
Saint Louis IX, the city of St. Louis' namesake, is a great saint of the middle ages. We celebrate his feast day today, August 25, and look to his example of great faith and generosity as a model for our own lives.
Some of St. Louis' life is recounted on this website on a page titled Saint Louis, King of France:
Louis gave generous gifts of money to poor people whether others considered them worthy or not. He also built hospitals and homes for those who needed them. He is quoted as saying, "I would rather my extravagance should be in almsgiving for the love of God than in the pomp and vainglory of this world."
In 1254, Louis issued his Great Ordinance. His officials had to swear to give justice to all. They could accept no bribes and allow no gifts to their wives, children, or other close family members. Finally, they could not buy land in the territories they served.
Most of all, Louis seemed to enjoy the company of other people, especially his family and the guests he had to meals. "Nothing," he said, "beats a free and friendly conversation."
You can read more about St. Louis' life on our own website, and you can also find a beautiful statement of faith in St. Louis' last instructions to his eldest son, Philip III, on the 'fisheaters' website.

A sneak peek of my brand refresh and business card layout. Hugely influenced from Swiss style design focusing on big typography, overlapping and a strong accent colour. Using the vibrant green as the accent and then a nice clean grid for typography.

A police force has admitted more than £100,000 has been stolen from a "secure storage area" at one of its stations.
Warwickshire Police said £113,000, which was seized from criminals, had disappeared from the designated site at its former headquarters in the village of Leek Wootton.
The money was seized under the Proceeds of Crime Act in 2009 and was linked to an operation that resulted in the conviction of three people in January 2010 for a variety of offences, including possession of firearms.
It was reported as missing on September 30 last year and a confidential investigation began, carried out by the Anti-Corruption Unit of Warwickshire Police's Professional Standards Department.
No offenders have yet been identified, the force said, so a public appeal has now been issued.
The force has formally referred the matter to the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC), which has decided that it should be investigated locally.
Warwickshire Police Authority has also been informed.
All members of the force have been told of the theft and anyone with any information is asked to contact Warwickshire Police on 01926 4150000 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Hair salon
5-7 Hazel Lane, London, SE10 9FZ
ABOUT THE CURIOUS COMB- "Salon of the Year" grand finalist.
After 6 wonderful years in Humber Road we are excited to present a bigger and better Curious Comb! With more space and new services, we are looking forward to welcoming you to our new abode!
Our cosy salon blending the old with the new was inspired by the 50's era. Come and see us on Hazel Lane as part of the new Greenwich Square Complex.
Here we tame the unruly tresses of men, women, children (and the occasional guinea pig) in a friendly, relaxing environment with thirst-quenching beverages and home-baked treats.
So if you're feeling curious, come in and say hello!
Come and get 10% off exclusive discount for Mumsnet Greenwich users during weekdays between 10a.m. and 4p.m.
I recently had my hair done at Curious comb.
The location of the salon is very good, it is just next to Greenwich library.
The staff are very friendly. You are met with a smile never mind if it is sunny or pouring outside.
Once you come in you are offered a drink - water, coffee, tea you choose. So you can wait in this beautiful salon for your appointment. The interior design is really eye catching and quorky so you have plenty of things to look at. Once my appointment came lovely Charlotte ( with whom I had my appointment) came and greeted me. She asked if I wanted one of the magazines and which one I wanted, fashion, gossip all hot off the press. We had a long chat about what I wanted and how I wanted. She was very patient and listened well to me. So I was sure she understood, what I wanted and I was listened too. In stead of being rushed off and getting a standard haircut. She washed my hair and gave a little head massage that was really welcome.
She cut my hair nicely and did a really god job giving me a glamorous blow dry. It has been long time, since somebody really cared and took time to make my hair look good. She was very patient and dealing with every lock, I do not have that patience to do what she did myself! At the end I was really happy with my haircut and blow dry.
This is the salon I am returning and deffo reccomend it. The salon is pretty big, so it is easily accessible with buggies. The staff are very child friendly and do not mind to hold your baby or keep your child busy whilst you are heaving your hair treatment. There is toilet and a kitchen if you want to use it for breastfeeding or changing the baby. But there is no baby change as such, but plenty of space to use the changing mat. And 10% off for Mumsnet was a big bonus too!
I take my 2 1/2 year old daughter in from time to time for her haircut and the staff are great with her. She gets a booster seat to sit on, the hairdressers are all very patient and usually give her a treat/ sticker and lots of praise when she's done. Would recommend for kids.
Please login first.

WWDC 2016 will feature more than 1,000 Apple engineers who will lead more than 150 hands-on labs and events aimed at helping developers get code-level assistance and deeper insights into creating new apps and more for users, according to the company. Attendees will gain access to the latest innovations, features and capabilities of iOS, OS X, watchOS and tvOS, as well as best practices for enhancing app functionality, performance, quality and design.
The WWDC first-day kickoff events, including the keynote address, will be held at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, and the rest of the week's conference sessions will be held in the Moscone West Convention Center.
