The Dallas Mavericks have made a move at small forward, with restricted free agent Chandler Parsons signing a three-year offer sheet worth more than $45 million.
Houston will now have to decide whether to match the offer.
Several photos of Parsons signing an offer sheet were posted on a Cyber Dust account controlled by Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and the team early Thursday, when the NBA's moratorium on signing free agents ended. The photos, including one of Cuban posing with Parsons, appeared briefly just after midnight Dallas time.
The Rockets have three days to match the offer, though it wasn't immediately clear if they would do so for the 25-year-old forward who has played for them the past three seasons. Parsons was a second-round pick out of Florida in the 2011 draft.
Dallas got an agreement in place with Parsons even before small forwards Carmelo Anthony or LeBron James announced where they will play, a signal that the Mavericks are most likely out on the two most prominent free agents.
Anthony visited the Mavericks at the start of the free agency period, but Dallas owner Mark Cuban has acknowledged that he couldn't offer the forward a max contract.
Parsons averaged 16.6 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists last season for the Rockets. He has played 213 games, starting 207 of them, while averaging 14.1 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists.
In Dallas, he would be in a frontcourt with Dirk Nowitzki and recently reacquired Tyson Chandler.
Nowitzki and point guard Devin Harris have already agreed on new contracts that will be able to be signed as early as Thursday. Chandler, part of the Mavericks' only NBA title in 2011, rejoined Dallas in a trade from the New York Knicks.
Shawn Marion, the primary small forward for Dallas the past five seasons, is a defensive specialist and unrestricted free agent.

What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this stylized cartoon series is hampered by a silly 10-year-old female character whose zealous pursuit of her crush entirely consumes her. When she's not smothering him with unwanted attention (including hugs and attempts to kiss him), she's tapping into her own inner warrior and fighting the bad guys who challenge him. Although his red-faced embarrassment shows his disgust at her advances, he never lets her know how he feels. While the show is aimed at the 6-11 age group, the plot (with the significant exception of the inappropriately obsessive love interest) is ridiculously simplistic and far-fetched for kids that old, leaving only the flashy violence to keep their attention.

What's the story?
Ten-year-old Pucca seems a sweet-natured (if flighty) girl who's content to help out at her family's restaurant and listen to the misguided advice of the three chefs who act as her guardians in her father's absence (he's traveling the globe in search of exciting culinary advances). But when it comes to Garu (Brian Drummond) -- the unlucky object of her affections -- Pucca becomes relentlessly determined to win his heart. She follows him everywhere and stops at nothing to win him over. Innocent Garu, who only wants to focus on honing his ninja skills, finds Pucca's smothering presence irritating -- and it's not long before viewers start to agree with him.
Is it any good?
PUCCA chronicles a young girl's exhaustive attempts to win over her one true love, who, despite her best efforts, remains focused instead on his career. But this isn't a soap opera, a dramedy, or even a movie of the week. Pucca is actually an animated kids' series that blends martial arts with a touch of magic and heavy doses of desperate, unrequited love. The mix is a recipe for disaster that will leave parents (especially those with daughters) with a bad taste in their mouths. While Pucca and Garu's problems could be resolved by some effective communication, the situation is complicated by the fact that neither of them speaks in actual words. Inexplicably, they're among the few characters on the show who rely on sounds -- mostly giggles and grunts -- to communicate.
Pucca is plagued by storylines and subject matter that can't find age-appropriate common ground. The complicated love/hate relationship and the prevalence of violence pushes the show toward the upper end of the age spectrum, but the otherwise simplistic plot drags it down and will bore older kids.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about relationships between boys and girls. What's the difference between liking someone as a friend and liking someone as a boy/girlfriend?
How can you let someone know that you like him/her? How does it feel when someone has a crush on you? How would you react if the person you liked didn't feel the same about you?
Can a crush be taken too far? This show offers parents the chance to clarify their rules about dating and might even be a starter for the birds-and-the-bees conversation.

Our scientists proved the effectiveness of Germ Genie, a tool to prevent infections from keyboards, a device that could be very useful for many sniffling workers at the moment.
Germ Genie, was developed by Falcon Innovations and tested at the University of Hertfordshire's Biodet laboratory.
The results of the University's tests on E.Coli, Staphylococcus Aureus and Bacillus Subtillis, reveal that Germ Genie kills ninety-nine percent of germs across most of the keyboard in just two minutes, and across the whole keyboard in ten minutes.
The Genie works by sensing finger movement on the computer keyboard, and after the user has finished it sanitises the keyboard with UV light. This treatment leaves the keyboard ready for the next user so they will not pick up microbes that would otherwise have posed a risk of passing on infections like Flu, MRSA and E.Coli. Unlike other solutions, it will sanitise the keyboard many times each day, at exactly the times it is needed – after each user.

Wouldn't you find it awesome if you could automatically tell what the weather was like outside without having to glance into the Weather application or launch Notification Center? If yes, then check out a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed WeatherBar by iOS developer Rudolf Lichtner.
WeatherBar adjusts the hue of the Status Bar depending on the temperature outside. The data is collected using the temperature of your current location, so you can be sure that it will let you know what its like outside no matter where you are. As shown above, the hue color will indicate the temperature outside colder colors represent colder temperatures and warmer colors represent warmer temperatures.
The tweak supports both Celsius and Fahrenheit. If you're using the Celsius unit of measure, the tweak's colors support anywhere from -20ºC to 50ºC. If you're using Fahrenheit as a unit of measure, the tweak's colors support anywhere from -4ºF to 122ºF. The colors, in order from coldest to warmest are:
- Violet
- Blue
- Green
- Yellow
- Orange
- Red
The colored status bar is transparent, much like the new Status Bar effects on iOS 6, and can be seen on the lock screen, on the home screen, and even from within applications. This means you dont have to be in a certain location in iOS to see what the temperature is like outside and youll be able to see if the temperature changes without ever leaving the middle of what youre doing.
WeatherBar is iOS 5 and iOS 6-compatible. If youre interested, head over to the ModMyi repository in Cydia and get downloading!

Limited Liability Corporation FAQ
A limited liability company (also known as a limited liability corporation, or just "LLC") is a structural organization that many businesses choose to use as it combines the simplicity of pass-through taxation with the limited liability that comes with corporations. Follow along as FindLaw takes your through some of the varying aspects of LLCs. For more information, see our Incorporation and Legal Structures page.
Here are some of most asked questions regarding limited liability corporations (LLC)
I've heard of LLCs, but how exactly does pass-through taxation work?
The pass-through taxation works as though the profits and losses of the LLC pass directly through to the owners of the LLC. Unlike a corporation, an LLC is not a separate tax entity, meaning that the owners pay the taxes for the LLC. For example, if an owner of an LLC collected $40,000 as his share of an LLC's profits for a year, he would have to add that $40,000 onto his own personal tax statement.
To figure out the limited liability aspect of LLCs, it is useful to look at corporations. People often incorporate their businesses in order to gain the advantage of limited personal liability from their business' dealings. Owners of LLCs enjoy this same benefit of limited personal liability. This means that the owners of the LLC cannot be held personally liable for any debts, judgments or lawsuits against the LLC.
Are there a minimum number of people needed to form an LLC?
No, there are not a minimum number of people needed to form an LLC. If you decide to form an LLC with yourself as the sole owner, however, you must be careful in your actions and documentation to keep your LLC from being considered a sole proprietorship.
Who are LLCs best for?
Organizing your business as a corporation or an LLC makes sense in two situations. First, if the business is engaged in a dangerous activity that makes it more likely to be sued, or if the business has the potential of racking up large amounts of debt, then a corporation or an LLC may be a good idea to shield the owners from personal liability.
Second, when the owners of a business have large amounts of personal assets that they want to shield from any potential liability associated with the business, forming a limited liability corporation makes a lot of sense. This can be true even if your business is engaged in an generally safe activity, like selling teddy bears. There is always the potential of there being a large judgment against your company. If such an instance arises, forming a limited liability corporation can protect your valuable assets.
Are there any businesses that can't form an LLC?
Not every business can form as an LLC, though. Businesses that are engaged in banking, trust and insurance are sometimes prohibited from forming as an LLC. Additionally, some states disallow certain professionals (architects, doctors, lawyers, accountants) from coming together to form an LLC. Check your state's laws to find out if your business is eligible to form as an LLC.
How do I go about forming an LLC?
In most states, you will be able to form an LLC by following four (or fewer) simple steps.
- Business Name: Locate a business name that is available (not taken by another company) and that conforms to your state's rules regarding names for LLCs. Many state governments will tell you whether or not the name you have chosen for your LLC is a valid name under the state's laws
- Articles of Organization: File your paperwork, normally called the "Articles of Organization," and pay the fee associated with the filing. These documents often go by different names, such as "Certificate of Formation" or "Certificate of Organization" depending upon the nomenclature that your state uses. The filing fees can range from between $100 to $800.
- Operating Agreement: Make the operating agreement that will dictate how the LLC will be run. This normally lays out all the rights and responsibilities of all LLC members. Although it may not be required by your state that you file an operating agreement for your LLC (most states do not require it), you should still, nevertheless, create one. The operating agreement for an LLC will set out the rules and regulations for both ownership and operation of the business and is one of the key documents that will significantly help in the long run.
- Publish a Notice: In some states, publish a notice that you intend to form an LLC. Some states require that an LLC take another step to make the business official, namely that the members must publish a notice to the public in a local newspaper of their intent to form an LLC. This publication requirement normally spells out how long the notice must appear (typically over the course of a few weeks), and also how the members will prove they met the publication requirement (typically by submitting an affidavit of publication). If your state requires this publication, your local newspaper should be able to help you.
Do I need an operating agreement?
Although many states do not require every LLC to be run by an operating agreement (typically, states have "default rules" that will govern how an LLC is run absent an operating agreement that says otherwise), it is still probably in your best interest to have one. Here are some reasons why having an operating agreement is a great idea:
- It will establish rules regarding the sharing of profits and losses among the owners.
- It will dictate how meetings are held as well as lay out the voting rights of all members.
- It can help ensure that your business' status as an LLC will be legitimate and more respected by a court when considering your limited personal liability.
- It can possibly resolve conflicts between owners before they arise.
- It avoids the default rules that would be imposed by the state absent an operating agreement.
How will my LLC be taxed?
Unlike corporations, LLCs are not considered to be a separate tax entity, meaning that the taxes pass-through to the owners of the business (like sole proprietorships and partnerships). The LLC, in general, does not pay income taxes for itself. However, the owners of the LLC must pay taxes on their share of the profits from the LLC on their personal tax returns.
However, LLCs may elect to be taxed like corporations, meaning that the LLC would pay taxes on its profits, instead of passing the taxes through to the owners.
Are there differences between a limited liability corporation and a partnership?
An LLC, unlike a partnership, provides limited liability to the owners of the LLC for the business' liabilities, including debts, judgments and others. Because of this, if a judgment is ever issued against the LLC, or if a creditor is seeking payment from the LLC, they cannot obtain payment from your personal assets (real estate, bank accounts).
A partnership does not provide this type of protection. Instead, the general partners in a partnership are directly liable for the debts, judgments and other liabilities of the partnership (there is an exception for partners that are designated as "limited partners.")
Another difference can be seen in how both types of business organizations are formed. While owners of LLCs must file articles of organization, pay a fee and comply with other laws of the state in order to be official, partnerships do not have to do any of this. Partners simply declare that a partnership exists, and it does.
However, because LLCs are not their own, separate tax entity, LLCs and partnerships are taxed very similarly. They both use a "pass-through" tax system where the profits and losses are passed through to the members, and it is the members that are taxed, not the business.
What securities laws impact LLCs?
By definition, a security is an investment in a profit-making enterprise that is not run or controlled by the investor. Therefore, if you are planning on having more than one owner (member) in your LLC, then you may have to worry about securities laws. When a person invests in a company and expects to make a profit because of the work of other people, the government will consider the company to be a security. It is worthwhile to keep in mind that the converse is true as well. If you plan on investing money in a company, and expect to receive profits, but also plan on working for and in the company, then the investment is not a security.
This second scenario is played out in a lot of start-up companies where all the owners of the LLC are actively engaged in the running, growing and management of the company. Even if these people derive profits from their LLC, it will not be considered a security because the investors expect to profit, in part, from their own work within the business. However, if there is just one investor in the company that does not participate in the management or running of the company, then the LLC may be considered a security by the federal Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
If some of the ownership interests in your business will be considered securities by the SEC, you must ensure that you qualify for an exemption from the securities law before you take money from the investors in your LLC. If you cannot qualify for the exemption, you must register the sale of the interest in your LLC with the state and the federal SEC.
Small businesses that plan on forming into LLCs regularly qualify for the securities law exemption, even if they plan on selling ownership interests to non-participating investors. For example, the SEC runs the exemption to LLCs that have all of their owners within one state (even the passive ones), and that only sell goods within that state (called the "intrastate exemption.") There are other exemptions as well, such as the "private offerings" exemption which exempts LLCs that sell to a small number of people (normally fewer than 35), or to people that can reasonably be expected to look after their own investments without government protection.
Hiring a Lawyer to Help With Your LLC
While many of your state's LLC forms may be easy to fill out, understanding the laws and your obligations surrounding them may require the help of a legal expert. If you have questions, contact a business and commercial law attorney in your area today. Finding problems before you start can save you a lot of time and money in the future.

BROGUE-107 Black Skull Buckle Boots
Reviewer: Corinne
The overall shape/silhouette really makes this shoe stand out, and it is relatively comfy! Because of the length of the toe, I would reccomend not ordering a size up (like I did the first time).

Reviewer: Mondia
These boots are brilliant. Better than the ones I had in the 80s. My only criticism is that the calf is narrow. I love them.

Killer boots!
Reviewer: MorganMoonlight
These boots are awesome. The feet are really pointy, so order a size up. But they look so much cooler pointy. They came before the date of expected arrival, which was a pleasant surprise. The boots look great. I'd highly recommend. :)

BROGUE-107 Black Skull Buckle Boots
Reviewer: DC
Nice boots, cool buckle design. These boots are meant to be worn with pant legs inside as the top of the boot width is slightly wide. Almost 8" on the size 11. The buckles have limited tightening capability. All in all I am happy with them and the good and quick service provided by rivethead, I will definitely do more business with them again.

The Harrington Family
To our surprise, our daughter Geneva was born 6 weeks early on July 17, 2008. She weighed in at 6lbs 4.5oz, so was quite large for a preemie. Seeing her and all the other babies in the NICU was heartbreaking, but it was a comfort to know that The Preemie Project would be there for us. I have been a TPP volunteer for a few years now, but was very appreciative to be on the receiving end during that difficult time. I am happy to say Geneva didn't fit in her adorable strawberry hat and booties for long because she has grown so much since she was born! At least we'll be able to use the blankets for years to come. Thank you volunteers for your dedication to TPP. Those colorful hats, booties, and blankets can really brighten a day for families in the NICU.

The national press have confirmed the departure of BBC1 Controller Lorraine Heggessey. Ms Heggessey has spent five years in the position, and is responsible for the commissioning of "Spooks" and of course the new series of Doctor Who. Ms Heggessey is moving to a Talkback Thames – producer of "The Bill" – as Chief Executive.
Candidates earmarked to replace Lorraine Heggessey include the BBCs Jane Tranter, Channel 4s Kevin Lygo, Nigel Pickard if ITV and Daisy Goodwin of Talkback Thames. The Times also tout one Michael Grade as a possibility…
Although a loss to the BBC, and possibly disappointing to Doctor Who fans, Ms Heggessey's departure coincides with a decision by the BBC to introduce more "quality" into the schedule of BBC1. This can only be good news for Doctor Who and British television in general.
It's also worth mentioning that the BBC have been asked by the Board of Governors to reduce spending by 15% across the board. A cut in budget is unlikely to affect Doctor Who, however, as long as it remains popular.
The article in The Times can be found here, and the BBCi report here.

Summary: As a child, Joon-young was always teased because his mother owned a bar that served Americans. When he meets Hae-in, a blind girl, they become childhood sweethearts and he vows to always protect her. However, Hae-in and her mom take off one night, leaving Joon-young and his promise behind. Hae-in later meets Kon-woo, the rich son of a CEO. Among these three, a tragic love triangle begins to form...
Plot: Behold the pinnacle of melodrama! Yeah I know that tragedies are supposed to be dramatic and I excuse that. There are, however, exceptions to every rule. I really do not like this Manhwa. The tragedy was too much! The drama was too much. And the ending kind of cut off the story without actually ending; the ending they DID give us was the biggest "WTF?!?!?!?" moments (and not the good kind). I can't really tell you without spoiling anything but it makes absolutely no sense why Joon-Young (the main character) did what he did. I will give it 2 points because of its unique story.
Art: The proportions of the faces were off. The chins were just done horribly. Even though I'm sure the average Shoujo drawing style is different in Korea, I'm also sure that proportions exist in Korea!
Characters: The characters are walking stereotypes. Now let's start with the least annoying character, Kon-Woo. Kon-Woo needed a hug. Even though I don't like him all that much; he still needs a hug. His character fueled the unnecessary melodrama of the series. He was the poor sap in love with the main character (because we HAVEN'T seen that type of character). I disliked Hae-in. She let Hwuah-Jung treat her like crap and didn't do anything about it. I hated Joon-Young. Joon-Young was one of those characters that distanced themselves from the one they loved because they are a just simply a bruiting teenager. Joon-Young was an asshole. I DESPISE Hwuah-Jung! The type of stereotypical character I hate the worst is the jerk girl in love with the male main character. And Hwuah-Jung is no exception. She is horrible! There are no words in the English, Japanese, or Korean language to express how much I hate this character! She left a blind girl with heavy make-up on in the middle of the red light district! I can't really say what else she did without spoiling anything, but if you read this Manhwa you will probably hate her as much as me.
Overall: I hated this Manwha. The only reason I did read this was because my friend said I need to expand my horizons. Che! This was so melodramatic, it had annoying characters, and the art was horrible. The only time you should read this is if you like melodrama. If you don't, and you want a tragedy x10 better than this- read The Snow Queen.

Getting there
The easiest way to get to Croatia is by air, and during the summer season most parts of the country are accessible by flights from the UK and Ireland. Though there are a few direct flights to Croatia from outside Europe fares can be expensive; a cheaper option may be to fly to a major Western European city and continue by air, train or bus from there.
Airfares always depend on the season. Peak times for flights to Croatia are between May and September, and around the Easter and Christmas holidays; at these times be prepared to book well in advance. Fares drop during the "shoulder" seasons (April and October), and you'll usually get the best prices during the low season (Nov–March, excluding Easter and Christmas). Many of Croatia's cities are served by budget airlines, although flights may be limited to the summer tourist season (May–Sept). The best deals are usually to be found by booking through discount travel websites or the websites of the airlines themselves.
You may sometimes find it cheaper to pick up a bargain package deal from a tour operator. The main advantage of package holidays is that hotel accommodation is much cheaper than if you arrange things independently, bringing mid-range hotels well within reach and making stays in even quite snazzy establishments a fraction of the price paid by walk-in guests. The season for Adriatic packages runs from April to October; city breaks in Zagreb and Dubrovnik are available all the year round. Croatia is also the venue for an increasing number of maritime packages – ranging from sailing courses for beginners to boat charter for the experienced (see Travel agents and tour operators).
Flights from the UK and Ireland
Flying from the UK to Croatia takes between two hours fifteen minutes and two hours forty-five minutes. Direct scheduled flights are operated by Croatia Airlines, which flies from London Heathrow to Zagreb, and British Airways, who run year-round direct flights from London Gatwick to Dubrovnik and London Heathrow to Zagreb. EasyJet operates from London Gatwick to Zagreb throughout the year, while seasonal (usually May–Oct) services run by Wizzair, easyJet, Jet2 and Ryanair) fly to Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar, Rijeka and Pula from a wide range of UK airports. Travelling from Ireland, Aer Lingus fly from Dublin to Dubrovnik, while Jet2 fly to Dubrovnik from Belfast.
Expect to pay around £150 return low season, £220–280 return high season if travelling with Croatia Airlines or British Airways, although bear in mind that prices rise drastically if you don't book well in advance. Tickets with budget carriers can be significantly cheaper – again, you have to book well in advance to take advantage of the lowest fares.
Package deals
The widest range of package deals is offered by Croatia specialists (see "Travel agents and Tour Operators"), who can put together customized flight-plus-accommodation deals; in high season (June–Sept) expect to pay from around £650 for a week, and from £800 for two weeks. As for city breaks, a three-day stay in Zagreb or Dubrovnik will cost £400–500 per person depending on which grade of hotel you choose. A few specialist operators offer naturist holidays in the self-contained mega-resorts of Istria.
Motorsailer cruises in Dalmatia start at around £620 for seven days. To learn the rudiments of sailing, you can arrange a one-week beginner's course – prices start at about £660 per person. The cheapest seven-day holiday in an eight-berth yacht is typically around £550–650 per person (rising to £750–850 in a two-berth yacht), depending on the season. Prices rise steeply for fancier yachts. You won't be able to charter a smallish three- to four-berth bareboat yacht for much under £700 per week, while prices for larger craft can run into thousands; a skipper will cost upwards of £120 a day extra.
Flights from the US and Canada
There are currently no direct flights from North America to Croatia, though most major airlines offer one- or two-stop flights via the bigger European cities, often in conjunction with Croatia Airlines, the national carrier. From the US, a midweek round-trip fare to Zagreb in low season starts at US$750 from New York (US$1200 from US West Coast cities), rising to US$1300 (US$1800 from the West Coast) during high season. From Canada, round-trip fares start at Can$1450 from Toronto and Can$1900 from Vancouver during the low season, rising to Can$1800 and Can$2300 respectively during high season. Note that the above prices are for tickets bought from airlines directly, and the pricing varies hugely depending on the route and the carrier combination; discount agencies usually have lower fares.
Specialist travel agents such as TravelTime offer air-inclusive independent packages. Expect to pay about US$1100 for eight days in Dubrovnik or Dalmatia in low season, $1650 in high season. There are also several North American tour operators offering escorted and independent tours and activity holidays to Croatia – a number of which also include Slovenia in their itinerary.
If you're planning to visit Croatia as part of a wider trip across Europe, you may want to get the cheapest transatlantic flight you can find, and continue your journey overland – in which case it's worth considering a Eurail pass for train travel.
Flights from Australia and New Zealand
Flying to Croatia from Australia and New Zealand with major airlines usually involves two stops en route and can work out quite expensive – fares hover around the Aus$2800 mark from Australia, NZ$3400 from New Zealand. It probably makes far more sense to aim for a big European city such as London or Frankurt and then travel on to Croatia on a local budget airline. This can work out quite cheaply if booked well in advance over the internet.
A small number of package-tour operators offer holidays in Croatia from Australia and New Zealand, including accommodation, cruises along the Dalmatian coast, sightseeing packages and rail passes.
Flights from South Africa
There are no direct flights to Croatia from South Africa, but plenty of airlines offer one-stop flights via European hubs such as London, Frankfurt or Paris. Flying with an airline such as Lufthansa from Johannesburg to Zagreb via Frankfurt costs around ZAR9200 in low season, ZAR10,720 in high season, and takes around eighteen hours. Flying to Split or Dubrovnik usually involves one more stop and costs ZAR1500–2500 extra.

Travelling to Croatia by train from the UK is unlikely to save money compared with flying, but can be a leisurely way of getting to the country if you plan to stop off in other parts of Europe on the way. It's certainly simpler and more cost-effective to buy a rail pass, invest in an international rail timetable and plan your own itinerary than to try and purchase a rail return ticket to Croatia: most ticket agents deal exclusively with premier express services, and fares often work out more expensive than flying – a London–Zagreb return will set you back something in the region of £230–300. The high cost is at least partly explained by the fact that almost all through-tickets from London to European destinations now use Eurostar trains, rather than the (traditionally cheaper) ferries. It's still possible to travel by rail from London to the continent via ferry, but (unless you have a rail pass) you'll probably have to buy individual tickets for each stage of the journey.
There are two main London–Zagreb rail itineraries: the first is via Paris, Lausanne, Milan, Venice and Ljubljana; the second via Brussels, Cologne, Salzburg and Ljubljana. The total journey time on either route is around thirty hours, depending on connections – considerably longer if you cross the Channel by ferry rather than taking the Eurostar. If you're making a beeline for Dalmatia, consider heading for Ancona in Italy (16hr from Paris), the departure point for ferries to Zadar, Split and Stari Grad.
Rail passes
If you're planning to visit Croatia as part of a more extensive trip around Europe, it may be worth buying a rail pass. Croatia is covered in the Inter-Rail pass scheme, which is available to European residents.
Inter-Rail passes can be bought through Rail Europe in the UK and come in over-26 and (cheaper) under-26 versions. They cover most European countries, including Croatia and all the countries you need to travel through in order to get there. A pass for five days' travel in a ten-day period (£225 for adults, £148 for those under 26) will just about suffice to get you to Croatia and back; although a more leisurely approach would require a pass for ten days' travel within a 22-day period (£321 and £216 respectively) or a pass for one month's continuous travel (£537 and £355). Inter-Rail passes do not include travel between Britain and the continent, although pass-holders are eligible for discounts on rail travel in the UK and on cross-Channel ferries.
Non-European residents qualify for the Eurail Global pass, which must be purchased before arrival in Europe from selected agents in North America, Australia and New Zealand or from Rail Europe in London. The pass allows unlimited free first-class train travel in twenty European countries, including Belgium and Germany. The pass is available in increments of fifteen days (US$800), 21 days (US$1034) and one month (US$1270). If you're under 26, you can save money with a Eurail Global Youthpass (second-class travel only; US$530 for fifteen days, US$830 for one month, or US$620 for ten days' travel in a two-month period). Further details of these passes can be found on w raileurope.com.
By car from the UK
Driving to Croatia is straightforward. The most direct route from the UK is to follow motorways from the Belgian coast via Brussels, Cologne, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Munich, Salzburg and Villach as far as the Slovene capital, Ljubljana, from where you can continue by ordinary road south to Rijeka on the Adriatic coast or southeast to Zagreb. An alternative approach is through France, Switzerland and Italy as far as Ancona on Italy's Adriatic coast, from where there are ferries to various points on the Dalmatian coast. Farther down towards the heel of Italy there are ferries from Bari to Dubrovnik.
Note that if you're driving on Austrian motorways you'll have to buy a vignette (a windscreen sticker available at border crossings and petrol stations; €8 for ten days, €23.40 for two months). In Slovenia you'll need to buy a vignette to drive on all but minor country roads (€15 for one week, €30 for one month).
By bus from the UK
The bus journey from London to Zagreb (changing in Frankfurt) takes 34–38 hours and is slightly cheaper than the train, with a return costing £160 (£140 for under-26s and seniors).
By ferry from Italy
Seasonal ferry services (usually spring to late autumn) run from Ancona to Split, Stari Grad and Zadar; and from Bari to Dubrovnik. passengers can usually buy tickets on arrival at the relevant ferry port, but if you're travelling with a vehicle it's wise to book in advance, especially in July and August. Services to Split and Dubrovnik usually take eight to twelve hours; services to Zadar slightly less.
From northern Italy, Venezia Lines serve Mali Lošinj, Poreč, Pula and Rovinj from Venice; while Emilia Romagna Lines operate passenger-only services from Cesenatico, Pesaro and Ravenna to Mali Lošinj, Rovinj and Zadar.
Simple deck passage from Ancona or Bari to Croatian ports costs about €65–70, but as most crossings are overnight, consider investing an additional €30 for a bed in a basic cabin. Pushbikes are free, motorcycles cost about €45, cars €85. Return tickets are usually twenty percent cheaper than two singles.

Principal Brochill is in the building, and the highly anticipated Con Bro Chill music video has arrived on Rainbreak.com! Check out Con Bro's "Respect Your Partner" below and drop your reactions in the comments section.
Overall, this is Con Bro Chill's best produced video yet. That's probably because he's teamed up with a bunch of other creative geniuses to form Rainbreak – "A collective of artists and friends dedicated to releasing a new video every month… rain or shine." The whole group was involved in the creation of this new music vid from Con Bro, and it shows! Kind of makes you want to buy a sweet Come To My Party tank, doesn't it?!
Props to Mr. Connor Martin. Keep the good stuff coming, and keep growing the game!

NEW YORK (AP) -- "Late Show" host David Letterman treated John McCain's decision to cancel an appearance on his talk show more like a stupid human trick than the act of a statesman. (Click here to watch video)
The Republican presidential candidate said he was halting his campaign activities Wednesday, citing the need to deal with the nation's financial crisis, and called Letterman to drop out of the show's late-night lineup. On the air Wednesday night, Letterman assailed McCain's rationale and, with prickly humor, questioned whether the nominee - now trailing in some polls - was in trouble.
"This doesn't smell right," Letterman said. "This is not the way a tested hero behaves. Somebody's putting something in his Metamucil."
McCain spokeswoman Nicole Wallace said Thursday that the campaign "felt this wasn't a night for comedy."
"We deeply regret offending Mr. Letterman, but our candidate's priority at this moment is to focus on this crisis," Wallace said on NBC's "Today" show.
Letterman called McCain "a true American hero" but told his viewers: "This is not the John McCain I know, by God. It makes me believe something is going haywire with the campaign."
Instead of suspending a campaign, Letterman said, a presidential candidate should go to Washington to deal with a crisis and let his running mate shoulder the burdens of politicking.
"That's what you do. You don't quit. ... Or is that really a good thing to do?" Letterman said, a reference to McCain's running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. "What's the problem? Where is she? Why isn't she doing that?" he asked.
Letterman later asked: "Are we suspending it because there's an economic crisis or because the poll numbers are sliding?"
Making matters worse for McCain, his replacement was MSNBC's "Countdown" host Keith Olbermann, a constant critic of the Arizona senator.
McCain told the CBS show that he was immediately flying back to Washington, Letterman told his audience. Then Letterman showed a TV feed of McCain being made-up for an appearance on news anchor Katie Couric's "CBS Evening News."
"Doesn't seem to be racing to the airport, does he?" Letterman said. "This just gets uglier and uglier."
As McCain spoke to Couric, Letterman shouted at the feed: "Hey, John, I've got a question. Do you need a ride to the airport?"
Letterman later said: "We're told now that the senator has concluded his interview with Katie Couric and he's now on Rachael Ray's show making veal piccata. ... What are you going to do?"

Howse family pay tribute to first Australian awarded the Victoria Cross
Thursday 20 January 2011 by LEUT Debra Holland. No comments
Accompanied by her own children and grandchildren, Canberra identity Mrs Valerie Howse OAM came to the Australian War Memorial recently to tour the newly opened Hall of Valour and to pay tribute to her late father-in-law, Major General Neville Reginald Howse VC KCB KCMG, honoured as the first Australian to be awarded the Victoria Cross in 1900 during the Boer War.
Born 26 October 1863 in Somerset England, Neville Howse studied medicine at London Hospital before migrating to New South Wales. He established his first practice in Newcastle later moving to Taree. He briefly returned to England to undertake postgraduate work before finally returning to Australia in 1897 and settling down in Orange.
In January 1900 he received his commission as lieutenant in the New South Wales Medical Corps and sailed for South Africa and the Boer War. On 24 July 1900, while serving with a mounted infantry brigade at Vredefort, Captain Howse rescued a wounded man under heavy fire for which he became the first Australian to be awarded the Victoria Cross.
Howse returned to Australia, but went back to South Africa as an honorary major in the Australian Medical Corps in February 1902, just as the war was ending. Howse was twice elected mayor of Orange and married Evelyn Pilcher in Bathurst in 1905. Howse later served in the First World War and in September 1915 he was given command of ANZAC medical services and in November became director of the AIF's medical services.
In 1917 Howse was knighted and in 1920 he made a brief return to private practice before resuming work with the army. He resigned in 1922 and won the federal seat of Calare for the National Party. In 1930 he went to England for medical treatment but died of cancer on 19 September of the same year. He was survived by his wife and five children.

text: Watch a Package's Entire Shipping Journey from the Package's Point of ViewCasey Chan4/03/13 10:30pmFiled to: POVPackagesPackagingwatch this21EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Few things are more fun in life than tracking shipments and then seeing how it'll eventually reach your front door. But what happens in the in between process? This video shows you what happens when you send something by mail. The drop off locations, the sorting facilities, the delivery process and everything in between. There's a lot of steps! It seems like the life of a package could be made into a Pixar movie like Finding Nemo or something.AdvertisementThe project, which was created by Ruben van der Vleuten, rigged a cardboard box to record the whole shipping journey. He used a cheap $5 digital camera, an Arduino programmed to help the rig sleep and save battery and an external timer circuit to take a three-second video every minute. In addition, he added some tilt switches which would sense movement and record even longer moments (the thinking was if the package was moving, it'd make for more interesting footage).He actually had to send out the package multiple times to piece together the footage but eventually captured the whole process. It's impressive how efficient it is. [Ruben van der Vleuten via Fast Co]

JEditorPane Text selecting and cursor position problems after scaling
I have a JEditorPane that displays HTML files, with overriden paintComponent function as follows :
Java Code:protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) { Graphics2D g2d= (Graphics2D)g; g2d.scale(zoom, zoom); super.paintComponent(g2d); }
My problem is that when i do that, with zoom diferent than 1, whenever I select text from the EditorPane with the mouse, it selects the text that would have been there before the zoom, thus returning wrong results.
To further explain the getSelectionStart() and getSelectionEnd() of the editor pane dont work correctly, any possible workaround ?Last edited by xlomo; 10-29-2011 at 08:10 PM.

"We're not going to build a phone," he said during the social network's earnings call Wednesday. "It's not the right strategy for us to build one integrated system...Let's say we sell 10 million units -- that would be 1 percent of users. Who cares for us?"
I can think of plenty of people who care -- investors in particular. The company's stock, which has been fluctuating in after-hours trading, took another downward turn after the revelation and is currently trading about 4 percent down from its closing price of $31.24.
Zuckerberg's firm denial, a recurring theme on earnings calls, contradicts a smattering of Facebook phone rumors that resurfaced ahead of the company's Graph Search announcement earlier this month. Of course, that's not to say Zuckerberg and Co. don't have ambitious goals for getting Facebook more deeply enmeshed inside your smartphone. Quite the opposite, really, as Zuckerberg was also quick to point out.
What that means exactly, we don't know, but it's clear that Facebook intends to be a core component of mobile phone operating systems.
Zuckerberg's statements came after Facebook released a very strong fourth-quarter earnings report. Facebook made $1.59 billion in revenue and posted adjusted earnings per share of 17 cents in the fourth quarter. The company, which said it made 23 percent of advertising revenue from mobile, also proved for the second quarter in a row that it could monetize mobile attention.

A longstanding challenge for the global economy is the possibility that some countries compete for export markets through artificially low prices. Political leaders and pundits sometimes propose import tariffs to offset the supposed price advantages and exert pressure for policy changes abroad. What proponents often fail to realize is that such tariff policies, while certainly hurting their targets, can also be very costly at home. And surprisingly, the self-inflicted harm can be substantial even when trade partners do not retaliate with tariffs of their own. Continue reading

Oh no! Our gal Gagz announced via Twitter and Facebook this afternoon that she's postponing the rest of her current tour due to chronic and debilitating synovitis, or inflammation of the joints. She says she's been hiding the pain from her staff, but she just can't cope anymore and will be postponing her next four tour dates (in Chicago, Detroit, and Hamilton, Ontario). Advertisement"I barely know what to say," she writes on her Facebook page, Tuesday. "I've been hiding a show injury and chronic pain for some time now, [and] over the past month it has worsened. I've been praying it would heal. I hid it from my staff. I didn't want to disappoint my amazing fans. However, after last night's performance I could not walk and still can't.""I hope you can forgive me, as it is nearly impossible for me to forgive myself," the rest of her Facebook post says. "I'm devastated & sad. It will hopefully heal as soon as possible. I hate this. I hate this so much. I love you and I'm sorry."Sure you don't want to just break out the "Paparazzi"-era wheelchair and golden crutches? Making crutches fabulous is kind of your THING, Gaga. Just a thought. (Also get well soon, etc.) [People]Bryan T. Norwood, the Virginia police chief who maybe-possibly-probably signed off on Chris Brown's falsified community service records, has resigned his position over the incident.AdvertisementThe L.A. County D.A. claimed last week that the records are bogus and that Chris had a prior relationship with Mr. Norwood, who wrote a letter to the judge on September 14, claiming Chris successfully completed 202 days of community service, 22 more than he was required.Mr. Norwood also provided documents showing Chris worked at the Tappahannock Children's Centre doing odd jobs such as painting, washing windows, waxing floors, cutting grass and picking up trash.The D.A. claimed that following its investigation, it found no ''credible, competent or verifiable evidence'' that Chris performed 180 days of service and called his documentation ''at best sloppy ... and at worst fraudulent reporting.''Chris' lawyer has slammed the allegations as ''scurrilous, libellous and defamatory'' but the judge has asked Chris to verify his hours.Wait, did Chris Brown really say "scurrilous"? Is he the ghost of William Jennings Bryan? Is he John Goodman in Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? Is he an SAT flashcard?

"But once I realized that I wasn't gonna run myself off the pier of life with alcohol, drinking vodka out of the bottle every day . . . I have wine now, mostly when I eat."..."It just always has seemed whimsical to me, to think about it. You don't get an Oscar for comedy, and you don't get it for shooting people. You get it for novelty, for being fascinating to watch in some character role," the action star sniffs. "But the Die Hard stuff and Dirty Harry are all fraught with the same thing that every story is fraught with."Don't worry, bro. They're just embarrassed because they know they fucked up by snubbing Hudson Hawk. [Us]GIF Philip Seymour Hoffman says the Hunger Games books are good for kids because it teaches them about the horrors of kidnapping children and making them fight to the death."It's unbelievable what this woman has done," said 45-year-old Hoffman. "She literally tells our modern history of war and the awful things that have happened through these science-fiction novels. In the modern day, we send children off to die to protect our way of life, basically. It's very powerful the way she does it."Amazed by the Collins trilogy of books, Hoffman immediately wanted to be a part of the films, reports MSN. Though the story involves a heavy dose of violence among children, Hoffman says that the message of The Hunger Games isn't "kids who kill each other."He says that if the films are done right, they are something that kids should see.Sounds like a plan!

Karen Tanaka: 'From the composition of Crystalline for solo piano in 1988, I have desired to project the image of crystals in sounds and space. Hommage en cristal (1991), Metallic Crystal (1994-95) and Crystalline II (1995-96) are linked to this earlier piece, in which a glassy, solid, yet transparent sound suggests cold, crystal sound sculptures. This idea has been extended and developed in Crystalline III, but it has become more joyful and more rapidly fluttering in space.

7.5 to 8.8 swap
how hard is it to go from a 7.5 to a ranger 28 spline 8.8? what would have to be done to the drive flange and u joint plate? finally, will the 7.5 shafts fit in the 28 spline 8.8? they are the same spline and diameter i believe. all the brackets should line up?
Sponsored Links | |||
April 17th, 2009, 02:14 AM | #2 |
SFA Ranger
The 8.8 out of another ranger should bolt right in, The shafts are also the same.
You will not have to change anything, I took an 8.8 out of a 94 and bolted it right in to my 97 with no problems. I also had the 7.5" axle before. The parking brake cables are also the same. The axles are different on the 92 and older rangers, they aren't as wide. http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/index.php Any info you need to know about Rangers can be found there. |
April 17th, 2009, 10:05 AM | #4 |
in my opinion i wouldn't wast time swapping in a 28 spline 8.8, it's just not much of an upgrade.
Go strait to a 31 spline from an explorer, it's a little harder swap, but still very easy. you won't notice the width difference |
April 17th, 2009, 07:40 PM | #6 |
Ranger Addiction?
IF they were the same width, I believe so, but they're probably not.
8.8's from (IIRC) 93+ are wider by 1.5" or something like that. But if you upgrade to an 8.8 with the small shafts, it's almost a downgrade. there only an increase in strength in the R&P, so unless yo're going through pinions and ring gears, thats pretty pointless. And it will greatly reduce the ground clearance, the 8.8 is surprisingly larger than the 7.5" Though 8.8" from a GenI or GenII I think are the same size. But really: http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/Axles.html That is a very good page on the differences. Go, Read you must. |
April 19th, 2009, 03:06 PM | #7 |
i read on TRS a lot. i know the 28 spline 8.8 isnt any stronger. the upgrade would be in the LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL and possibally 4.10 GEARS and maybe even a DIFF COVER. that i cold transfer over to a 31 spline 8.8 later. im really asking a few specific questions.
1. How hard will the swap be? 2. What if any thing needs to be swapped out to make the different axle work? 3. will the axle shafts from an 89 BII 7.5 fit into a 92 ranger 8.8, both are 28 SPLINES? |
April 20th, 2009, 08:20 AM | #8 | |
April 20th, 2009, 09:17 AM | #9 |
thanks, i might take you up on that but im not 100% sure what im doing right now. a friend of mine has a 4.10 31 spline 8.8, but it needs brakes. another friend has a 3.73 trac-lok 7.5. the upgrade there would be the limited slip unit. and i might go with a 28 spline just depends. i think im leaning toward the 7.5 since my deal on a 28 spline 8.8 fell through. id be able to save a lot of money since i would have an entire second axle for parts. im really thinking about swapping up to a dana 35 too.

Did you ever come across one of those quotes that made your draw drop? You know the kind I'm talking about. You read it, and read it again, and then realize that drool is leaking from the corner of your mouth because you're staring and your mouth is hanging open. I recently had one of those moments when reading J.I. Packer's classic book, Knowing God. Packer writes:
If you want to judge how well a person understands Christianity, find out how much he makes of the thought of being God's child, and having God as his Father. If this is not the thought that prompts and controls his worship and prayers and his whole outlook on life, it means that he does not understand Christianity very well at all.
Does the thought of God as my Father control my whole outlook on life? Do I see every circumstance, every trial, every joy, and every sorrow through the lens of God as my father? No, I don't.
I often worry about my little girl, Charis. Will she be healthy? Is she developing properly? Will she live a long life? How would all these fears and worries change if the thought of God as my loving, caring father controlled my outlook on life? If I was regularly aware that the God of the universe calls me 'son', what would happen to my worries? Most of them would probably evaporate.
I'm often a legalist. When my spiritual 'performance' suffers, and I miss devotional times and pray weak, half-hearted prayers, I feel distant from God. If I was keenly aware of God's intense, fatherly love for me, demonstrated most clearly on the cross, what would happen to my legalism? Legalism would be replaced by joy.
Aren't you glad that God is your father? The God who made you calls you 'son' or 'daughter', and we call him 'Father'. I want to see life through the prism of God as Father.
What about you? Does the thought of God as Father control your outlook on life?

I have never eaten a s'more. I have nothing against s'mores. In fact, I'm quite sure I'd like them.
I figure I've never eaten one, because we never made them at home, and nobody's ever offered me one. I think they're a Brownie/Girl Scout thing, no?
I must admit that never having eaten a s'more makes me feel a tad un-American. I'll just have to cowboy up and get over it, or find a s'more and eat it.

The Trojans advance to the semifinals and will play Benedictine of Savannah next week. Both the Trojans and Cadets are #1 seeds and a coin toss will be held Saturday, likely in Dublin, to determine home field advantage. Lamar edged BC last year on a last second field goal by Tyler Scandrett.
Realtime scoring from the sidelines was provided by Walter Geiger.
