**Attention: Sprite Movie**
**Note: The first scene is slow to catch you up on background information that would otherwise be confusing. Pace picks up dramatically after first scene**
Ron, the one chosen to be the Game Ranger, has been rescued by Sonic and Shadow. Having been brought to their gaming world, Ron is informed that he must help them stop the menace known as "Evil K".
With little choice, Ron is brought into the battle against Evil K and his army. Is there any chance of survival for Ron? Is Ron going to cause more problems than he's worth?
Please remember to vote and review. We do all we can to respond to all reviews. Remember that the opening scene is there to catch you up on some of the back story, so it' going to be a little slow, especially compared to the rest of the movie.
Running time is 10 minutes with credits and bonus scene. You must watch the credits to access the bonus scene.
There are two hidden buttons on the bottom right of each scene so you can skip to the next or go back to the previous. There is a hidden button on the bottom left of each scene so you can return to the scene selection.
Wow! Daily 4th Place?! Thank you all! Thank you all for voting and reviewing!!!
Corrected an issue in the "Extras" section as well.
Script for GR4 is being written and finalized.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
I didn't watch any other ones
So I had no idea what was going on, but it was a kind've funny parody of Captain N: The Game Master, nonetheless. Man, that show was corny...
Could've tried harder at making Sonic sound more Sonic-ish. One of his prime traits is that high pitched, always overly-enthusiastic voice, which could have been pretty funny to reproduce. You also could've taken more advantage of being able to make fun of the Sonic characters overall. You didn't bash on them enough, and they're easy targets. Actually, you didn't bash them whatsoever.
You didn't put seriousness into them to make them seem genuine, nor did you put sarcasm into them for humor, so I'm not sure what you were trying to do. I'm no professional critic, but, if you're going to parody video games, you should kinda, you know...parody them in some fashion.
Could've definitly been funnier. Voice acting could've been better, too, but some of the voices *were* pretty funny (Kirby & Ganon). I think this thing can be done up better overall, especially if you're working with multiple people on it. J'mon now.
Oh, Captain N was corny as hell, but at the time, it was very entertaining. You need to watch the other episodes to really know how everything ended up where it is now, too.
More "Sonic-ish"? We didn't want Sonic to be stereotypical, which is why the voice choice. An overly joyish and enthusiastic voice would have been annoying. Besides, his entire world was about to be destroyed. There are forces working to change things in each of the realms, which will be shown even more so later.
The point isn't to parody the video games as much as it is to have someone visit the worlds in trouble. The fact that Sonic and Shadow could travel to the Earthbound game world is evidence enough of some major problems occurring.
Better? In some ways, certainly. During the course of this one, I've learned even more ways of animating to make things both easier and more appealing on the eyes. As for the rest of it, no, it couldn't have been, and I mean that in a good way.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
dude it was so awsome when they fought ken ganodorf and kirby.XD.I thought that kirby was going to take the place of that dead bitch.I hope he will come again.
Thank you very much.
This was my first real tinkering with the fights in a sprite movie. Future animations will be a little more dynamic in that section with the Game Ranger series, and a serious step-up in Street Fighter vs Dragonball Z. The short few seconds of each fight I have already shown to a select group of people are amazed already. Well, that's the point with it, anyway.
No, Kirby won't be taking the place of Psylock. You may see some other characters again in the future, however. The script for Game Ranger 4 is still being worked on and changed. I'm even considering scraping what we have already and starting over with new ideas. That's just how we do things.
Rated 0 / 5 stars
you suck
shadow soulde be more cooler and sonic can't do that
You fan boys need help.
Rated 2 / 5 stars
How many voice actors are there again?
However many there are, there ain't enough. I got the impression that it was at least three dudes at most doing ALL the voices. at least this was better than the others, but it isn't a commendable improvement.
Try to improve some more, and I'll give you a better score and review, until then, this is the dude addicted to flash, signing out.
-End Transmission.
Maybe you should work on your reviews period.
You're just watching way too many things here on NG, which is why the voices sound familiar.
See, people like you are scared. You're scared that someone like me, through story, character interaction, and plot progression gets actors like Sonic Mega and Adidaas to work for me. It pisses you guys off that I can get the scores I do.
Too bad, troll. I'm here to stay and I'm only getting more well known actors each time.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
this was the best
i think this was the best of the three.but if #4 comes i think i might be proven wrong.please make another one.i watched the who is evil k part 3 times.i cant belive it was kirby.
I promise to make a fourth. We're still writing and changing the script around to make it the best it can be.

Onset (http://www.onsetcomp.com), a leading supplier of data loggers, today announced the HOBO UX100 Series, the company's next-generation family of data loggers for tracking temperature and relative humidity in indoor environments.

Starting at just $75, HOBO UX100 Series data loggers offer a dramatic price/performance advantage over competitive products by delivering higher accuracy, larger measurement capacity, and more LCD display features to make environmental data collection faster and easier than ever.
Building owners, facility managers, energy auditors, and others will use the matchbox-sized UX100 Series data loggers to quickly and easily collect indoor environmental data in a broad range of applications. This includes monitoring occupant comfort in office buildings, tracking food storage conditions in warehouses, logging temperature trends in server rooms, and measuring humidity levels in museums.
"The HOBO UX100 Series sets a new standard for portable temp/RH data logging," said Jessica Frackelton, Onset's senior manager of product marketing. "It bridges the gap between traditional loggers, which typically don't have LCD displays and are limited in accuracy and memory, and larger, more expensive LCD loggers that require calibration. Users can finally have the logger performance they need, in a small and affordable package that can be installed anywhere data is needed."
Fast, easy deployment
HOBO UX100 data loggers streamline indoor environmental monitoring applications, and make deployment faster than ever. The loggers feature an easy-to-view LCD display that visually confirms logger operation and battery status, eliminating the need to connect the logger to a PC to see the information. A large memory capacity enables users to deploy the loggers for longer periods with fewer site visits.
UX100 loggers also feature start and stop pushbuttons, and rare earth magnet, strap, and command-strip mounting options enabling faster deployment and greater mounting flexibility and reliability.
Powerful software
Once data has been recorded with HOBO UX100 data loggers, it can be easily viewed in graph form and analyzed using Onset's HOBOware® Pro software. Time-saving tools allow users to batch-configure and readout hundreds of loggers in a fraction of the time it would take with previous generations. Additionally, the software features a Bulk Export tool that allows users to export data files to text format for use in spreadsheets, and is available in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and German languages.
Pricing and Availability
HOBO UX100 Series data loggers are available immediately from Onset. The series includes five models, including temperature-only loggers with integrated sensors to temperature/RH and thermocouple loggers with external probes. Prices range from $75 - $189. Please visit http://www.onsetcomp.com for complete pricing details and technical specifications or sign up for a free live webinar to learn more.
Onset is a leading supplier of data loggers. The company's HOBO data logger and weather station products are used around the world in a broad range of applications, including building energy performance monitoring, water resources management, and ecological and agricultural research. Based on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, Onset has sold more than 2 million data loggers since the company's founding in 1981. Visit Onset on the web at http://www.onsetcomp.com.

Tobacco smoking is raising death toll
Singapore: According to a study in PLOS Medicine, by Prof Wei Zheng, professor of Medicine and director of the Vanderbilt Epidemiology Center, and Mr John Potter, a member and scientific advisor of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, Washington, tobacco smoking has caused around two million deaths in the recent years and a rising toll has been predicted.
Of the total population, half of the male population in asia are smokers. The authors believe that this rise in smoking among Asians is due to aggressive product marketing by tobacco companies and a lack of education about health issues related to tobacco.
For this population-based research, investigators pooled data from large cohort studies conducted in Asia and included demographic and risk factor information collected in seven Asian regions from the early 1960s through the late 1990s (although most of the studies enrolled participants after the mid-1980s). The cohorts of 1,223,092 participants who were at least 45 years of age were in Bangladesh, India, mainland China, Japan, Republic of Korea, Singapore and Taiwan.
Among men who had ever smoked, there was an elevated risk of death from cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer or respiratory diseases in all of the geographic regions in 2004. The risk of death due to any disease, however, varied considerably across populations, with the stronger association generally found in Japan, South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan compared to that observed in China and India.
The association with cancer risk was quite consistent across study populations. Men who had smoked were nearly twice as likely to die from cancer, especially lung cancer, but there was also an elevated risk of death from cancers of the head and neck, esophagus, stomach, colorectum, liver, pancreas and bladder - all diseases that have been linked to smoking in previous studies, according to the authors.

Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics safety and tolerability of topiramate in infants aged 1-24 months with refractory partial-onset seizures. Topiramate is an antiepileptic drug approved for use in adult and pediatric patients (aged 2 to 16 years) with refractory partial onset seizures (POS) with or without secondarily generalized seizures, primary generalized tonic clonic seizures, or Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS).
Condition | Intervention | Phase |

Further study details as provided by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C.:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Individual (each patient) and mean (each treatment) topiramate plasma concentration-time profiles.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Incidence of adverse events throughout the study. Changes from pretreatment to the end of posttreatment phase in take-home records, clinical laboratory results, physical & neurologic examination results, ECGs, renal ultrasounds, vital sign measurements
Enrollment: | 16 |
Study Start Date: | June 2005 |
Study Completion Date: | October 2007 |
This is a open-label, randomized (patients are assigned different treatments based on chance), dose comparison, multicenter study of topiramate in infants of age 1-24 months with refractory partial-onset seizures (POS). The trial will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of topiramate used as additional treatment in infants with refractory POS. Topiramate is administered as liquid and sprinkles as adjunct (additional treatment) to concurrent anticonvulsant therapy. The study will consist of 4 phases: a pretreatment phase that includes screening (up to 7 days) and baseline (1 day), an open-label treatment phase (up to 6 weeks), an open-label extension phase (54 weeks), and a posttreatment phase (up to 4 weeks). Seizure diaries will be maintained throughout the study by the patients' parents, legally acceptable representatives, or caregivers. In the open-label treatment phase, patients will be randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatments: topiramate 3, 5, 15, or 25 mg/kg per day. Venous blood samples (four 1 milliliter [mL] samples) will be collected on 2 days during the study to determine plasma concentration of topiramate. Safety will be evaluated throughout the study by monitoring adverse events and by results from clinical laboratory tests (serum chemistry, venous ammonia, hematology, and urinalysis), electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital sign measurements (pulse and blood pressure), physical examination, neurologic examination, Vineland Scales of Adaptive Behavior, renal ultrasound, assessments for adequate food and liquid intake, hyperthermia, oligohydrosis, and rash, and take-home records. Liquid or sprinkles form of topiramate, 3,5,15,or 25mg/kg per day for 54 weeks.

Thanksgiving Meets Chanukah
. . . and they find they have a lot in common.
There's got to be some connection between Thanksgiving and Chanukah. Why? Because the Baal Shem Tov taught us that everything a person sees or hears is meant to be a lesson in life. Thanksgiving is the American holiday right before Chanukah. In fact, in 2013, American Thanksgiving fell on the first day of Chanukah.1. Tell me there isn't meaning there.
The Wrong Match?
Yet, if you're looking for a Jewish thanksgiving, it's Sukkot—which is the last Jewish holiday before Thanksgiving. Sukkot is the original biblical Thanksgiving. The Torah calls it The Festival of Ingathering—in other words, when all the crops, fruits included, have been gathered in. At that point we gather for seven days to show our thankfulness. After we left Egypt, Sukkot also became a festival to celebrate the divine protection we enjoyed for forty years in the wilderness. And that protection continues to this day.
Sukkot never coincides with Thanksgiving. That's a good thing. On Sukkot, we sit outdoors in a makeshift hut—not necessarily the way you would want to end November if you lived in, say, Portland, Maine.
When you think about it, Thanksgiving has more to do with Chanukah than any other holiday.But Thanksgiving comes right before—occasionally even colliding. And, when you think about it, Thanksgiving has more to do with Chanukah than any other holiday.
Beyond Corn & Watermelons
Thanksgiving is not your typical harvest festival. It's about more than bumper crops and giant watermelons. Thanksgiving comes packed with a deep narrative—what Peter Gomes calls the "American sense of mythic past."2 It's a narrative about an arduous journey to escape religious persecution for freedom in a new land, the establishment of a democratic charter, and the sense of divine providence that carried those refugees through their plight.
Thanksgiving & Chanukah are both deep narratives in a nation's collective consciousness.That's Chanukah, as well: a narrative deeply embedded in the collective Jewish psyche of how we fought back against religious oppression in our own land, earned our freedom, and thanked G‑d for the miracles.
In America, most holidays have lost their original significance for most people. With Thanksgiving, that may not yet be the case. Americans still act as though they identify with the plight of those Pilgrims. Most of us, after all, are descendants of those who fled to this side of the planet seeking a new future unbridled by the oppressive restrictions of the old world. And when we think of America, we still think of a land of promise and liberty.
The Thanksgiving Mantra
So, Chanukah and Thanksgiving are deeply connected, and that connection can be summed up in just four words: "Thank G‑d, we're free."
Why are those words important? Thanksgiving is a national holiday, not a religious holiday. But please tell me, whom are Americans thanking? The turkey?
So, what's so important about thanking G‑d?
Because it's at that point that you become truly free of religious oppression.
That may sound strange. Hold on.
Liberty from the Bogeyman
Let's say you can't get yourself to say those words, not because you do not feel free, but because you claim to not believe in G‑d—at least, not one that can be thanked?Whom are Americans thanking? The turkey? But what if you think that belief in G‑d is irrational? What if you think that such belief is irrational, primitive and unscientific?
Then you need to ask yourself if you are still carrying the Pilgrims' bogeyman of the Church of England, if Diderot is still screaming in your ear that "men will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest," and if the collusion of church and state is looming in your mind as though King Louis XIV and Czar Nicholas I came along on the Mayflower.
It's hard to find a real atheist. Deep in the human consciousness lies a belief in a G‑d who cares. Deep—yet close enough that it will emerge in a crunch. In a typical conversation with an atheist, scratch the surface and you'll find that a caring G‑d is not the real issue. The fear of an oppressive church and "organized religion" hijacking democracy is the real bogeyman.
But there is no bogeyman. We've left that behind. We are free. So, it's okay to thank G‑d. And it's extremely liberating.
It's liberating, because that's the foundation upon which liberty is built.
The Stuff the World (and America) Is Made Of
Let's face it: America wouldn't have been possible if no one thought that G‑d cares. If there weren't people who believed that the state of humanity is of cosmic significance, that there was nothing that touched more closely the very core of existence than the way one human being treats another, then all that we call social progress could never have happened.
Thanking G‑d means you feel an affinity with whatever it is you believe is behind this whole existence. You feel there's some sort of interaction going on here. You feel that this super-being, this transcendental oneness—as strange as it may sound—actually cares.
Which is a powerful statement. It says that caring doesn't just make the world go 'round—caring is the reason it's here to begin with. More than that, caring is the stuff this world is made of: as the psalm goes, "the world is built of kindness."
Caring is the stuff this world is made of.I've written before that if the leaders of the environmental movement would embrace those sacred root-values of American culture, presenting us as the appointed stewards over a G‑d-given planet, they would finally find their way into the hearts of the people. The same applies to those struggling to bring peace in distant places, those fighting crime and injustice in not-so-distant places, and those bringing compassion and values to corporate America. Belief makes change. Belief in a G‑d who cares makes lasting change for lasting good.
Free At Last
Hi, America, I'm Thanksgiving.
And I'm also Chanukah.
Hold my hand.
Take a deep breath.
Now say, "Thank G‑d, we're free."
Doesn't that feel good?
America was formed by G-d fearing people, family values and a love of country. By 1948 America enjoyed a world wide respect unprecedented in modern time. This respect, due in no small part because of military superiority, was purchased over many years and born of G-d infused decisions and Spirit led people. America, which has not always stood with the Jews, led a coalition of a few to push through the reestablishment of the state of Israel. True, it is an extremely downsized piece of land from what G-d deeded to his people. Examine where Great Britain and America is today, compared to 1948, after carving away large portions of the Holy Land. However does anyone believe that in today's political climate this miraculous feat could be accomplished? It was G-d's timing which is always on time. America has completed its' greatest mission. I still give thanks for America.
Joel, have you ever seen a number? Can you explain what it is? Can you prove they exist? Mathematicians I have asked have answered either in the negative, or in very convoluted sentences to all the above.
Thanking G‑d for every day of life, now that's real.

It's Perfectly Normal is an impressive book about puberty and sex for young people because it manages to keep the tone light yet serious and informative. That's largely because of the wonderful illustrations by Michael Emberley. Throughout the book a bird and a bee comment on the topics: the bird is larger and more enthusiastic about finding out about sex, while the bee would prefer not to know and thinks it is gross. The drawings also show the stages of sexual development in boys and girls, the many various different kinds of bodies people have, drawings of genitalia and the reproductive organs, different forms of contraception, tampons and pads, and people engaged in talking about sex and even having sex. There's nothing pornographic here and this is certainly not a how-to manual for any sexual activities. The aim of the book is to help reassure children and teenagers that what they are experiencing in puberty is perfectly normal.
The book is non-judgmental and accepting about homosexuality and bisexuality, and represents gay and lesbian sexuality as simply another way of being. It does explain that some people feel hate towards homosexuals and says that their opinions are usually based on misinformation. It promotes self-acceptance and self-knowledge, and gives fairly detailed information about the different parts of the body and what happens through puberty. The text acknowledges that some people, both adults and children, feel uncomfortable talking about sex but it points out that others find it quite comforting and helpful. One of the main themes throughout the book is that it is not necessary to feel embarrassed or anxious about puberty, masturbation, or nocturnal emissions. The book also emphasizes people should respect other people's feelings and should never force to something they don't like.
One feature of It's Perfectly Normal that I like a lot is its attention to language. It gives clear definitions of words and explains how different people have different names for the same thing. But it does say that sex includes activities apart from vaginal intercourse, such as oral sex and anal sex. Strangely, the book says very little about virginity, and the word does not appear in the index. Many young people place value in either staying a virgin or in losing their virginity, and so it is an important question what counts as losing one's virginity. While the text does not really discuss this, it does explain that abstinence or postponement are options for couples and it explains the importance of avoiding sexually transmitted diseases as well as staying in control of any sexual situation to avoid rape or abuse.
So It's Perfectly Normal does a great job in explaining sexuality to young people. It would be appropriate for children of any age so long as parents felt comfortable explaining it, but it is probably best for children aged between 8 and 13. Older teens might find the drawings too silly and young for them, although they might still well benefit from some of the information the book provides.

Thursday at the 2013 United States Disc Golf Championships, 2008 US Champ Nate Doss surged ahead on Thursday with a 57 (-10) that put him at (-17) for the Championship, one stroke ahead of Wednesday's leader, Steve Brinster, who cooled off a bit today with a 63 (-4).
Behind Doss and Brinster are: Steve Rico, of Sylmar, Calif. (-15), defending US Champ Will Schusterick of Nashville (-14); and Matt Orum, of Mobile, Ala., Jared Roan of Highlands Ranch, Colo., and David Wiggins Jr., of High Point, N.C. are all at (-13).
Consistency was the story for Doss as he hit fairway after fairway which led to manageable birdie putts and few substantial mistakes.

The festivities included champagne and cake in the West Hollywood bistro, Bagatelle. As Gomez herself posted in the caption to an Instagram image:
"Thank you to @bagatellela for an amazing bday!!!! It's a birthday WEEK! #werk #becauseIcan"
Actress Ashley Benson had her own Instagram photos to share from the party. One was another group shot of the gang celebrating. In her caption, Benson referenced another reason for her friend to be happy — her number-one single "Come and Get It."
"And she beat jay z number one baby"
Later in the night, Benson and Gomez did the standard Instagram thing and posed for a selfie.
"Happy birthday sweet girl"
Remember that cake? As it turns out, it was a fancy taco cake. Raisa was happy to commemorate that.
"My lil sis is finally 21!!! You know what that means….. Taco cake! #turnup"
Now that she can party legally, will Selena Gomez start getting into trouble like other celebrities? Based on her innocent-looking photos, that doesn't seem too likely.

Captain's Report
Eye-Popping Performance with Turns Like a Speed Boat By Capt. Robert SmithManitou's new Cruise series takes much of its design from the Oasis line, yet has added quiet a bit of pizzazz. The V-toon technology and Sport Handling Package (SHP) aren't just catchy marketing terms either. These boats actually do handle like a V-hull cutting sharp, tight turns including snappy figure eights with little effort and barely a reduction in speed. The center tube is 27" in diameter and the two outboard tubes are 23" in diameter. Match that with some keel designs and strakes and you have a pontoon boat with sport boat handling.Practical Features and LayoutEntry gates on the 20 include wide gates so you don't have to struggle to bring along big items or wheelchairs. The cushions are dense and vinyl leather touch that are scuff, mildew and mold resistant as well as they are easy to clean. The seat bases are Roto-molded but with double walls. This allows the speakers and floor lighting to be mounted inside. Typically, base mounted speakers don't carry sound as well, but the Kicker speakers are in the sandwich which really helps direct the sound better. Most all storage boxes have ventilation, but I bet the dual wall also makes it easier to keep the gear dry and drained as well.With family or mixed company, changing on board is always a challenge. A changing room on an upscale pontoon boat isn't new, but what they do is relatively new. Their changing room is mounted in the end of the aft lounger next to the center gate. Most are in the stern eating up much needed storage. You can also have a port-a-potty inside. It's not bigger, just placed smarter.At the HelmIf you zeroed in on just the helm panel and blocked out everything else, you would swear you were aboard a high-end speed boat. Bezels are color coordinated to the upholstery as well as the Dino tilt wheel with hydraulic power assisted steering. The radio faceplate and switch panel sparkle like a diamond ring due to the highly polished metal. The stereo is Sirius Satellite ready. What makes it even more interesting, fun and versatile is the auxiliary input panel to the opposite side of the wheel. On this side is a cradle for an iPod or MP3 player, input to bridge it to the stereo AND a jack to plug in a flash drive to download up to 1 gigabyte of music into the stereo. That is definitely something I have not seen before. Below the dash, you do have room to stow some things like the soft side cooler. Inside is the hydraulic steering pump and plumbing as well as wiring harness and board. There is unpainted plywood in here, but it is marine grade and covered under the warranty. The door has pockets in it that will be convenient to stow some charts of your favorite lakes or a book to read while lounging at anchor.The Gathering SpotAft seating is where everyone will gather for a chat. The lounger wraps around from the center gate to the stern gate and is just as comfortable as the two relaxing loungers in the bow. Additional storage space below the seats insure you have room to bring along enough snacks, store the table that sets up back here and keep the life jackets handy. The sun pad across the back is large enough for an adult to stretch out. It has a rolled edge bolster to keep you onboard with a 7" safety rail for added security and safety. Lifting up the lid, you find a huge, deep wet locker for storing the tow lines, skis or boards. Below that, are the battery switch, oil reservoir, battery and fuel tank which is accessed through a hatch on the end next to the stern gate. Through the stern gate you have a telescoping swim ladder with high arching grab rails that mean every one should be able to pull themselves on board.Everyone can stay under cover with the easy to deploy Sunbrella bimini cover. The square frame has quick connects that mean in about one minute you can have it set up, stowed in the boat or dropped down for towing. There are no web straps to sing in the wind or break down with the ultra violet light.In conclusion, I was wowed by the performance of the Cruise series. I am told often that a pontoon is a performance boat, but this is the rare occasion that I can actually agree that it has V-hull type performance and response to the wheel and throttle. Many boaters with a family that want more room, but demand to still have a boat with some guts will like this pontoon.Test Result Highlights
- Top speed for the Manitou 20 X-Plode Cruise SHP is 43.3 mph (69.7 kph), burning 15.2 gallons per hour (gph) or 57.53 liters per hour (lph).
- Best cruise for the Manitou 20 X-Plode Cruise SHP is 23.4 mph (37.7 kph), and the boat gets 3.97 miles per gallon (mpg) or 1.69 kilometers per liter (kpl), giving the boat a cruising range of 203 miles (326.7 kilometers).
- Tested power is 1 x 175-hp Evinrude E-TEC.

Absolute Beginners Spanish Course
Hola All new Spanish speakers,
It's pretty hard learning a new language, and even harder finding a decent course to get you started. I know, I'm in the same boat, but I have found a course that gives you a sneak peak and some time to check out what they are all about. It is pretty easy, fun and best of all, its all downloaded onto the PC or Mac and you can transfer it to your MP 3 player too. Check it out if you like, no obligation of course, but well worth a look just for the 6 day free course!!! I put a link in my signature to make it nice and easy. I reckon its pretty damn good, did the freebies and now onto the beginning of the paid course. So far so good and enjoy it alot. Good luck Pete |

We, along with other local rugby clubs, have been invited by our old friends Cambuslang RFC to support a charity dinner on Saturday 16 February at 7.30pm. Let me know if you would like to go. I have now told Cambus we would like to take two tables as we have 20 people willing to attend.
Dress should be smart/lounge suit, not formal. Ticket money will be collected on the night. There will be a short cabaret act, raffle and presentation regarding wheelchair rugby.
If anyone else is interested, we may be able to secure other places. It is all for a good cause:
Many of you will remember the Cambuslang player Ciaran Pryce who, while at school suffered a severe rugby injury in 2007, leaving his legs paralysed and with only limited use of his arms.
Ciaran will be twenty-one next year and is now involved in wheelchair rugby. A team has been set up in Scotland in the last year (Caledonian Crushers) and has team members from Glasgow and all over Scotland. The sport has had a huge influence on the rehabilitation of the players and improves confidence, motivation and fitness.
Frances Pryce, Ciaran's mother, would like to help raise funds for the on-going costs of running the team and is organising a fund raising dinner to invite people to help support the team and encourage other wheelchair users to participate in sport.
The event is Cambuslang Rugby Club, Langlea Road, Cambuslang, G72 8HG on Saturday, 16 February 2013.
John Beattie (not the well known comedian altho' he is occasionally funny) is MC.
The cost is £30 per head but clubs are encouraged to take a table of 10 for £300.
Let me know if you would like to go. This is for a good cause and as we currently share two youth teams with Cambuslang is very worthy of our support.
Information regarding Caledonian Crushers can be found here

Oliver Ekman-Larsson's Undervalued Season
Josh L.
May 22 2012 12:33PM
Source: Wikipedia Commons
Very few people are familiar with the Phoenix Coyotes. Even fewer could pick Oliver Ekman-Larsson out of a lineup. There are numerous reasons for this unfortunate scenario, and with the season he just had that should change quickly.
The Phoenix Coyotes are an unremarkable team. They win by playing a conservative game, soaking up loser points, and praying. This is a close approximation of the narrative used to explain the unlikely success of the 2012 version of the Coyotes. Under each narrative there is some shred of truth. The Coyotes were 19th in the regular season in Fenwick Close. They had three players reach the 20 goal plateau of which the youngest was 30 year old Radim Vrbata. They have leaned heavily on a goalie the goaltending desperate Tampa Bay Lightning cast aside, and somehow he rewarded them with a .930 save percentage.
The aforementioned realities of the Coyotes 2012 season give the national media few easily accessible hot button discussion points throughout the course of the season unless the franchise is in trouble or someone gets a massive suspension. Combine that with the Coyotes home address being in the desert of Arizona (which might as well be the desert of Iraq considering how little coverage they receive), and it becomes very easy to write the Coyotes off completely.
These factors have culminated to overshadow the impressive second season by one of the NHL's top young defensemen. Oliver Ekman-Larsson is a really good two way defenseman playing for a team that emphasizes sound transitional play. After a solid rookie season Ekman-Larsson shined in 2012 with added responsibility and more minutes.
The most obvious evidence of Ekman-Larsson's rise are his offensive counting stats In 82 games Ekman-Larsson scored 13 goals and added 19 assists in 82 games. He was 40th among NHL defensemen in Points/60, and tied with Yandle for 3rd in Goals/60. He was an excellent offensive defenseman in the regular season, and should be going forward even if his shooting percentage falls from the 8.8 he shot this past year. Defensemen will generally shoot around five percent given that they're usually shooting from further out than forwards so his 8.8 rate isn't alarmingly high.
Hockey-reference allows us to put his offensive contributions in context fairly easily with their Player Season Finder. Since the first puck was dropped in an NHL rink only 33 defensemen 20 or younger have scored 13+ goals. Phil Housely, Scott Stevens, Bobby Orr, Ray Bourque, and Larry Murphy all did it twice. Paul Coffey, Brian Leetch, Dion Phaneuf, Glen Wesley, Denis Potvin, Drew Doughty, Craig Hartsburg, and Erik Karlsson also accomplished the feat. Since the lockout only Doughty, Karlsson, Phaneuf, and Ekman-Larsson have been able to pull it off.
What makes Ekman-Larsson's season so special is that he was able to produce positive results without playing defensively sheltered minutes like so many young defenseman. To add a little context notice the table below which compares the recent Doughty and Karlsson seasons to Ekman-Larsson's 2012.
Player | TOI/G | Corsi QoC | Pts/60 | Corsi Rel | OZ% |
Ekman-Larsson | 22:07 | 0.817 | 0.95 | 6.4 | 48.5 |
2011 Karlsson | 23:31 | 0.491 | 1 | 5.1 | 57.1 |
2010 Doughty | 24:59 | 0.932 | 1.1 | 5.5 | 56.2 |
All three played big minutes. All three played against above average competition with Karlsson receiving the easiest matchups of the three. All three had similar production at even strength. The biggest statistical difference between the three is that Ekman-Larsson was trusted with a higher percentage of defensive zone draws than the other two.
Ekman-Larsson's defensive prowess shouldn't come as much of a surprise. He's an intelligent player that can skate and cover a large amount of ground with his wide wingspan. This is a clear case of where statistics and the naked eye agree. He looks the part and he compares favorably statistically with some of the top young blueliners in the game. The actualization of his defensive ability on a consistent basis in the NHL at 20 years old is surprising though.
The Coyotes in general might not have many compelling storylines, but the continued development of Ekman-Larsson into a premier two way defender should provide a significant talking point in the coming years for a team looking to establish positive storylines in the wake of several years of ownership chaos. He may never have the offensive ability of Karlsson (who does?) or the overall game of Doughty, but there are many tangible reasons to believe that Ekman-Larsson is close to becoming a household name across the NHL-watching community.

I wonder how Oscar Klefbom compares to OEL at the same age?
So Oilers fans think that trading Edmonton's number 1 pick 2012 for OEL is too much. Phoenix would laugh at this deal.
I don't think Phoenix would laugh at that deal. They have so little up front that they'd have to consider making it happen.
I thought it would be hard to trade a potential Norris winner in the future. who has a track record.
It would solve some of the problems with the Oilers
It's a little early to call him a potential Norris winner. He's really good, but that's premature.
They probably don't make the move because he's so critical to their current success, but value wise they'd have to at least think about making it happen. They have absolutely nothing up front.
Thanks for the reply
He's so good - his playoff run is a shame for other teams that may have recognized his play earlier.
@Josh L.
Phoenix would have to get something else is that deal.
@Derek Zona
They aren't laughing at Tambo for making the call though.
@ Derek Zona
What do you think the Oilers would have to bring to the table aside from their first pick for OEL
@Josh L.
Certainly not.
I'm not certain. Maloney is usually very good, but sometimes signs Derek Morris.
One last thought on the OIlers .
If they do pick Yakupov, I think a good move for the Oilers would be to trade for Nikolai Kulemin. He is a big skilled 2 way winger that would help in the transition of Yakupov and the Oilers.

Rock climbing was recognized as a sport in England in the 1880s.
Globe reporter Erin Ailworth climbed a rock face at Hammond Pond in Newton.
In speed competitions, competitiors win when they are the fastest to clamber up the wall. Since 2007, the International Federation of Sport Climbing has set a standard wall for the world record.
Ian Rubijono-Bond raced up the rocky terrain at Hammond Pond.
Abseiling, or rappelling, is the controlled descent a climber makes down a rock face. Next
Unlike speed competitions, lead compeitions are about height, endurance and strategy, according to the IFSC. Atheletes have eight minutes to climb as high as they can—the highest wins. Next
Boulder climbing, the final of three disciplines, allows a maximum climbers of 10 movements, according to the IFSC. Next
The IFSC says that the worldwide climbing community counts 25 million people as its members, and the number of climbing gyms increased by 50 percent between 2007 and 2012. Next
In 2012, there were 1,630 licensed climbers, 660 of whom were female, according to the IFSC. Next
Rock climbing continues to win people over, with 3,000 people climbing for the first time each day, according to the IFSC. Back to the beginning

NPL Homecare, Inc.:20 years in the making
Thursday, July 4, 2013
At NPL HomeCare, Inc. they know that "There's No Place Like Home." Started by John Thaler to serve the home medical equipment needs of Northern Ohio, NPL opened for business 20 years ago this past April.
What is home medical equipment? It is a variety of products that can assist the daily activities of people with a minor injury or major disability. These include: Canes, hospital beds, wheelchairs, walkers, and crutches - all provided to meet the individual client need.
Many of these items are only rented for a limited period of recovery; other items may require long term usage and are purchased. Bathroom safety products, jar openers, sock aids and reachers are a few examples of accessories for daily living. They can be very simple items that just help around your home.
NPL has a showroom to display these many options, as well as, an experienced sales team to help you find the best product for your needs. "We started out different," says John. "I wanted a friendly store where customers could see, touch and try-out some of the equipment." So a professional medical equipment company that offers a wide range of ambulatory, mobility, rehabilitation, orthopedic and hospital-type products for use in a home setting was created.
Throughout the years, NPL has continued to grow in the number of people serviced, but also in the variety of products offered. Years ago, a new type of walker was introduced. It had wheels, hand brakes and a seat. Today, that product is known as a 'Rollator' and has become the walking assistant of choice by many customers.
Recovering at home or remaining in your home is very important. In response, NPL began selling and installing stair-lifts to help customers access all levels of their home in a safe reliable manner.
Scooter and power wheelchairs need to be transported from place to place and also come in and out of your home, vehicle lifts and ramps were added to our product lines. With every new product comes new training and service instruction for the staff.
At NPL, they recognize that customers have a choice when it comes to their medical equipment and services. They strive to provide the best in service, selection and product knowledge. "We also offer repair service on almost everything we sell," says John.
Safely using new medical equipment can seem complicated, that is why the staff takes the time to instruct the customer or caregiver. There are also two Assistive Technology Professionals on staff, certified by the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA). "The customer will find our commitment to education and training will make their entire experience less frustrating, especially when dealing with insurance coverage, continues John.
Located in Elyria Township at 7033 Lake Avenue, NPL HomeCare is open from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and is open on Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
A large 1700 sq.ft. showroom display area where customers can try-before-they-buy welcomes you. If your equipment has been prescribed by a doctor and qualifies as a covered item on your insurance policy, NPL can bill to a variety of insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid.
Do you need medical equipment? Do you want to know if a product is covered by your insurance provider? Give the team at NPL a call and they will guide you through the process.

Comparative religion is a field of religious studies that analyzes interpretive differences of common themes and ideas among the world's religions. Often in parallel with comparative mythology, this field of study relies heavily upon the examination of myth and spirituality, deriving essential themes from religious metaphor, and tracing in various ways a possible direct cultural connection between them. It also makes comparisons between the rituals and other aspects of various faiths besides just the myths.

The funny thing is that with Linux, the stuff you learned in the 90's is still relevant today... Contrast that with pretty much anything you learned about MS-DOS, OS/2, windows...
Talking about MS-DOS, in the early nineties my wife was a secretary using WP 5.1 on DOS as her word processor. Since she moved on she has remained stuck in that period. She does not like any GUI based word processor like Abiword or Openoffice Writer. So for the past few years I have set up WP51 in Dosemu on Linux for her. Originally I had to use DRDOS 7 for it to work but now it works fine in FreeDOS.
Try running WP 5.1 for DOS using XP or Vista, I not sure it can be done.

Brady, Tom (Thomas Edward Patrick Brady, Jr.), 1977–, American football player, b. San Mateo, Calif. He attended the Univ. of Michigan (1995–99), where he was co-starting quarterback (1998–99) and led the team to win the 1999 Orange Bowl. Drafted by the New England Patriots in 2000, Brady replaced the injured Drew Bledsoe in a Sept., 2001, game and became the team's starting quarterback. Canny, strong, and steady, with an accurate arm, Brady has led the Pats to three Super Bowl victories (2002, 2004–5) and was named that game's most valuable player twice (2002, 2004). In 2007, he marshaled New England's offense to what often seemed an inevitable undefeated regular season and was named NFL MVP, but he failed to win the Super Bowl. Brady passed for 50 touchdowns that year, breaking Peyton Manning's single-season record. He also was named league MVP for the 2010 season.

The Fuzz Ball
this wiki
- "The Policeman's ball is being held at the Old School Hall near the Callahan Bridge and they'll be looking for some old school action. Now, I got girls all over town walking the streets. Get 'em to the ball. They'll make a bundle. Get as many of them as you can, before the cops drink away all their green."
- ― Luigi Goterelli
The Fuzz Ball is a mission in Grand Theft Auto III, given to protagonist Claude by Luigi Goterelli from his bar in the Red Light District of Portland Island, Liberty City.
Mission Walkthrough
The mission begins with Claude going to Luigi's Sex Club 7 looking for more work from Luigi. Luigi informs Claude that a police ball is taking place in the Old School Hall in Chinatown and tells Claude to get a minimum of four prostitutes to the venue before the officers spend all their money.
There is a total of eight prostitutes, all located in Portland:
- Harwood Autocrusher and Junkyard (in Harwood)
- Saint Mark's (two)
- Hepburn Heights
- Chinatown (two)
- Portland Harbor
- Trenton
The difficulty of the mission lies in the time constraint. The player must complete the task given within five minutes, but can only ferry a maximum of three passengers should they use a conventional, four-door vehicle. For this reason, the Coach, a bus, is best suited for this mission, as it is the only vehicle in the game capable of carrying all eight prostitutes at once. Try to get the Coach before assigned the mission, so you do not waste time locating it. Using the Coach, the player must chart a single course across Portland, allowing them to transport and deliver all the passengers in a single go. One effective route is as follows:
- Passenger #1: Head north from Sex Club 7 to Hepburn Heights;
- Passenger #2: Head northeast, jumping offs the road into the Harwood Auto Crusher and Junkyard;
- Passenger #3: Head south from the entrance of the Junkyard, and make a left turn in Saint Mark's to a road where the third passenger is;
- Passenger #4: Drive uphill to the east, turn right at the end of the road, and continue south and west the road until you see the fourth passenger waiting on a downhill incline on the southern edge of Saint Mark's;
- Passenger #5: Continue down the road towards the west, past the subway station, all the way to the western end of the road, where the fifth passenger is waiting to the right at the border between Chinatown and the Red Light District;
- Passenger #6: Enter Chinatown and locate the southern entrance of Chinatown's open air market (the only entrance without the Chinatown arch)
- Passenger #7: Drive east, cutting across Portland View's grassy field and turning right to head to the entrance of Portland Harbor. Passenger #7 is waiting there.
- Passenger #8: Continue down the road until you reach an intersection just before another intersection linked to the Callahan Bridge. The last passenger is waiting on the western side of the Liberty City Sawmills. At this point of time, the old school hall is only around the corner.
You get an extra bonus of $2000 if you deliver all 8 girls. Another effective way is to get a fast 4-door car and start delivering the distant prostitutes first in this order: 3-1-3.
Transcript | ||||||
Video walkthroughs
PC | iPad |
The reward for completing the mission is $2,000 for delivering the required amount of prostitutes (four), with a further reward of $500 for each additional prostitute, with a maximum of $4,000.
- It is possible to pick up and deliver up to three prostitutes at once if you get a proper car.
- This mission is similar to Ho Selecta in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
- After delivering four prostitutes to the ball, the timer will still run. Claude can either wait for the timer to end or pick up the remaining prostitutes. If the player has met the minimum but is carrying prostitutes in his vehicle and runs out of time, it will not be held against the player and the prostitutes will simply get out and walk away.
- The mission will fail if any one of the prostitutes are killed. Even if the player has dropped off the minimum number of prostitutes, if any one of the remaining four girls die, the mission will fail.
- If the player is in front of the old school hall's doors before the time runs out, after the cut scene they can quickly drive the car across the doors to prevent it from closing. It will not close fully until the car is removed or despawned. A video of this can be seen here.
- Two police cars are parked in the parking area, accompanied by a banner saying "Liberty Police Annual Ball". This only happens in this mission.


text: Elementary school burglarized for 8th time Cameras may catch crooks Erik Waxler 5:52 PM, May 28, 2013 6:36 PM, May 28, 2013 Share Article Previous Next At some point over the weekend, someone broke in to Calusa Elementary School in New Port Richey. Just last week, 20 laptops and six desktops were taken from Long Middle School in Wesley Chapel. WFTS WFTS Copyright 2013 Scripps Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed. Show Caption Hide Caption Previous Next NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. - At some point over the weekend, someone broke in to Calusa Elementary School in New Port Richey. Windows were smashed. Computers and electronics were stolen. A maintenance supervisor discovered the burglary during a walk-through. He was checking things, because the school is a frequent target. "This is the 8th time. It's very frustrating to have these kids keep coming back," said school district spokesperson Linda Cobbe. Authorities have already arrested members of a group they say worked together to steal from various schools in the area, including Calusa Elementary. But the crimes continue. Just last week, 20 laptops and six desktops were taken from Long Middle School in Wesley Chapel. And now Calusa was hit again. They say they don't know if this latest burglary is connected. The district says it realized from past incidents, its surveillance cameras weren't doing the job. So workers installed new ones at the school, which officials say captured good images of the people who broke in. The sheriff's office says those images give them confidence they'll be able to catch the crooks. "I think they think they are outsmarting us. But between the Sheriff's office and the school district we will not be outsmarted," said Cobbe. The district says it took advice from sheriff's office and others, but won't reveal what security changes were made in the wake of all these break-ins. But thefts of IPads, lap tops and other items have cost about $200,000 so far. "It's valuable, but some of the technology needed to track it is very expensive as well. So we have to look at how we can achieve our goals of catching these guys without breaking the bank," said Cobbe. Officials with eht school district say the goal is to put new cameras at as many schools as possible. But right now they are focusing resources on the places where problems seem to be worst.

Thanks everyone for the responses, Been to Ford this morning, technician took car and myself out on test drive. After 5 mins, steering started to wobble when brakes were getting hot. Technician said he was 99% sure it was front brakes and couldn't understand why the rears was replaced, told him that I had front discs and pads changed early last year, and he says that's probably why they thought it was the rears! but they should have checked all the discs. He says it could be one of a number of things. A warped disc due to over heating, or when I had the front discs changed if they didn't clean the hub properly the discs wouldn't sit correctly and cause misalignment. Or it could be the spindle and wheel bearing? Have to take it back next week so they can check which one is causing the problem. Why didn't they check in the first place? My rear brakes may have been ok and not the cause of the problem.
Bolts are tight
I haven't checked the wheel bolts, was assuming the highly trained Ford mechanic might have done this. But saying that, who knows, I will check now just in case
If you had 2 hands on the wheel when you touched the brakes, you can see you hands judder left and right, sorry for the rubbish description. I would say it was similar to an unbalanced alloy wheel when driving at speed
Ahh ok, but both near side and off side rear brakes had burning smell. Didn't have burning smell before I took it in, would a caliper cause steering to wobble when brakes applied, Sorry not mechanically minded, Just a bit p***ed that they said they have checked everything and sorted the problem out and the problem persists and may have caused more problems
AndyHerrington started following Mis-Diagnosed Problem
Good evening all, Just after a little advice, I took my 58 plate Ford Smax into main dealership today. I told them I had a problem with my brakes, I told them at 60mph when I applied brakes I had severe steering wobble and that I may have a warped disk or brake binding. I had new discs and pads on the front last year, (genuine ford ones) they told me they would check them and get back to me. Went to pick car up and they have replaced back brake discs and pads. Receptionist went and asked the technician to confirm that everything was checked and the problem had been rectified. £240 lighter I took the car and drove home, took it upto 60mph and hey ho, steering wobble still there when I applied brake and now back brakes getting seriously hot and burning smell from pads. Rung dealership and they have told me to bring it back tomorrow. Where do I stand as they haven't fixed the problem?
Update Rang local Ford dealer, Explained what had happened and the DTC code from system test, They said I would need to bring it down to dealership so they can plug it in, £75 to plug it in but they were unable to do it until next Wednesday, So I rang Ford's main customer service center who were unable to help but gave me Fords technical helpline which was a premium £1 per minute call center, explained to their technical support worker for 5 minutes and he explained the code that was flashing up on my Smax wasnt any of the codes they have, and was put on hold whilst he went to check another system, 10 mins later he returned with the following explaination C41668 = U0416-68 U0416 = Invalid Data Received From Vehicle Dynamics Control Module U0416 = Invalid Data Received From Vehicle Dynamics Control Module 68 = DTC Failure Subtype definition for failure category "6". 68 = DTC Failure Subtype definition for failure category "6". Event information — This subtype is used by the control module to indicate the detection of a system event that was not caused by the control module itself but forces the control module to store a DTC (eg missing functionality from another system/control module). Event information - This subtype is used by the control module to indicate the detection of a system event that was not caused by the control module itself but forces the control module to store a DTC (eg missing functionality from another system / control module). unquote I Asked what that meant in english and he said i could have a faulty sensor on my ABS, Hallelujah!!!!!!! I asked is this a common fault Reply "It can Be"
No Cruise control, just a bog standard Zetec, Going to ring Frauds up, sorry Ford, (slip of the tongue) to see if they can enlighten me,
Just an update, Found this code Dtc#01 C41668 Any Ideas?
Hi All, I am new to the Ford Owners Club and wanting some advice, I have a 58 plate 2.0tdci Zetec SMax, I got in it today to do the school run and as I set off an Engine Malfunction warning came on the Dashboard screen along with the amber traction controle symbol on the dash and the traction controle off light above the stereo, I had no loss of power as I was climbing a steady incline but pulled over asap and turned off the ignition, Went to start the car 30 seconds after and the fault had gone, Could anyone shed any light on the problem? Cheers Andy
