THQ is looking to further their presence in the Asian gaming market, and to that end they've announced the opening of a new office in Shanghai, China, dedicated to the expansion of local partnerships and the development and publishing of online and offline games in the region, beginning with Company of Heroes Online, the free-to-play version of the popular series developed specifically for the Asian market.
"The Asian markets represent a significant growth opportunity for THQ, particularly as we execute on our strategy to grow revenue from online gaming, an increasingly important segment for our industry," said Martin Good, senior vice president THQ Asia Pacific. 'We look forward to continuing to build new publishing and development relationships in China to expand our presence in this important and fast growing gaming market."
China is of course home to over a billion Chinese people, many of whom turn to gaming in order to have something to look at other than other Chinese people all the time, hence the exploding game market. Good move, THQ.THQ Further Expands Publishing and Development Activities in Asia with New Shanghai Office New Office to Oversee XDG Global Operations and China Development Initiatives; Tim Page and Kevin Chu to Lead Publishing and Product Development Efforts AGOURA HILLS, Calif. & SHANGHAI, China—(BUSINESS WIRE)—THQ Inc. (NASDAQ:THQI) today announced the opening of its new office in Shanghai, China, from which THQ will pursue new development opportunities and expand publishing partnerships in the fast growing Chinese market. Building on its relationships established with local Chinese developers and publishers over the past several years, THQ's new Shanghai office will spearhead the expansion of local partnerships to develop and publish both online and packaged games for distribution in China and around the world. Later this fiscal year, the company plans to launch Company of Heroes® Online, a free to play, micro-transaction game designed specifically for Asia, in collaboration with its China publishing partner Shanda Interactive Entertainment, Ltd. "The Asian markets represent a significant growth opportunity for THQ, particularly as we execute on our strategy to grow revenue from online gaming, an increasingly important segment for our industry," said Martin Good, senior vice president THQ Asia Pacific. 'We look forward to continuing to build new publishing and development relationships in China to expand our presence in this important and fast growing gaming market." Tim Page, market development director for Asia Pacific, THQ, will lead efforts to expand THQ's online gaming portfolio by establishing and maintaining local publishing partnerships as well as bringing THQ online content to other markets around the world. Page's extensive experience includes more than 12 years in the games industry both in and across Asia Pacific. Over the past few years, he has been driving THQ's online strategy for Asia, building successful partnerships and sourcing new online products, many of which are yet to be announced. "We view our China initiative as an integral part of our greater Asia online strategy and Tim Page brings tremendous experience to drive our success in this area," said Good. "THQ China will be a springboard from which to expand our online games content, including Company of Heroes Online, to neighboring markets across Asia." Kevin Chu, corporate director of THQ's External Development Group (XDG), will run THQ's global outsourcing operations and assist in local product development initiatives from Shanghai. Chu, also a veteran of the video game industry, has extensive experience training and building teams in the Asia region. His strong track record of successful co-development partnerships and distributed development projects has driven millions in cost savings, enhanced product quality and improved production efficiencies. "Kevin has played an instrumental role in building relationships with many very talented development teams in China," said Steve Dauterman, senior vice president of product development, THQ. "By expanding our development operations and deepening our commitment to the local market, we will accelerate our growth in Asia and at the same time improve the efficiency of our development processes worldwide." THQ China's new operation is well positioned to capitalize on China's fast growing online games market, which was valued at US$1.7 billion in 2007 and reached more than 42 million online gamers. The market is expected to grow to US$4.2 billion by 2010. (Source: Niko Partners).

Erdan: Cut Gaza power to avoid shortages in Israel
By JPOST.COM STAFF
Minister says it is "absurd" that Israel should experience power shortages while the "terror entity next to us will get electricity."
Environmental Protection Minister Gilad Erdan on Sunday called on the government to cut off the supply of electricity to the Gaza Strip in order to avoid
electricity shortages
it is feared could affect Israel this summer.
Speaking in an interview with Army Radio, Erdan said that Gaza has its own power stations and legally, it is not clear that Israel is responsible for supplying power to Gaza, especially after Israel's 2005 disengagement from the terrotory. Gaza's power plant provides electricity to two-thirds of its population. Power is also supplied to the Gaza grid through power lines from Israel and Egypt.
Erdan said that it is "absurd" that Israel should experience power shortages while the "terror entity next to us will get electricity that they don't pay for." The Energy and Water Ministry expects shortages in Israel between June and September.
The environmental protection minister said that the four percent of power supplied to Gaza could prevent outages in Israel at times of peak usage.
Erdan stated that while "water and energy are supposed to be outside the conflict" if their is no choice and Israel needs the energy than he sees no legal obligation to provide Gaza with the electricity.
Erdan stated that former attorney-general Menahem Mazuz said that their were legal problems with cutting off electricity to Gaza when the measure was considered as a way of combating Hamas during Operation Cast Lead in 2009. Erdan said that in that instance Mazuz had stated that the move was illegal because it constituted "collective punishment" on the civilian population of Gaza, but the circumstances were completely different in this case, as the cuts would be made not as punishment, but rather as a result of need.
The environmental protection minister said that while he was not advocating regime change in Gaza, because alternative groups leading Gaza could be worse for Israel, he was also against strengthening and making agreements with Hamas.
Erdan posited that the Hamas leadership provided electricity for those close to it and cut off electricity for others according to its own political considerations. He stated that they were "not worthy" to receive electricity at the expense of the Israeli population.
Energy and Water Minister Uzi Landau last week recommended a 30-megawatt increase in solar rooftop allocations, as part of a government proposal he submitted for coping with the expected electricity shortages this summer.
The cabinet was expected to discuss measures for dealing with the shortages on Sunday. Erdan sent government ministers a letter outlining his proposal for cutting electricity to Gaza ahead of the discussion.

Edward, The Duke of Windsor
In my opinion, probably the most stylish man who ever lived. He definitely wouldn't look out of place today given his love of mixing bold patterns and colours. Yet, for all his eccentricity, he always looked dashing and elegant!

This is one of my favorite pictures of the Duke since it captures his flamboyant pattern mixing. From http://www.designspongeonline.com:
According to Suzy Menkes' book The Windsor Style, while the Duke always prized a dressy, elegant style, he was unlike the Duchess in that he always wanted his clothes to be comfortable. Katell le Bourhis is quoted: "The Duke picked up things from English country life and turned them into fashion for the city. And from the point of view of fashion history, he was the first man to dress in unstructured clothes with no stiffness or interlining." (125-126) |

1 First time in his IPL career Kieron Pollard ended on losing side despite scoring a fifty. All his previous 5 fifties had come in winning causes.
2 Number of fifties scored by Mumbai Indians in five games this year. Rohit Sharma and Kieron Pollard are the two batsmen to do so.
5 Number of consecutive matches lost by Mumbai Indians - their worst losing streak in the IPL.
27 Runs conceded by Amit Mishra in his last over (17th of the innings) – most expensive in IPL 2014. Rajasthan Royals' Dhawal Kulkarni had also conceded 27 runs in one over against Kings XI Punjab at Sharjah.
37 Number of balls taken by Pollard to reach his fifty – his slowest in the IPL!
47 Runs scored by Pollard against Amit Mishra. Only one batsman has scored more runs off a particular bowler in an IPL match. Royal Challengers Bangalore's Virat Kohli scored 52 off Delhi Daredevils' Umesh Yadav at Delhi in 2013.
83.33 Sunrisers Hyderabad's win-percentage after losing the toss - easily the best for any side.
100 Mumbai Indians became the second team to play 100 IPL matches after Chennai Super Kings.
101 Sixes conceded by Amit Mishra in the IPL – most by any bowler.

Flexibility of choice versus reduction of ambiguity
This paper explores the problem of a social planner willing to improve the welfare of individuals who are unable to compare all available alternatives. The optimal decision trades off the individuals' desire for flexibility versus their aversion towards ambiguous choice situations. We introduce an axiom system that formalizes this idea. Our main result characterizes the preference maximizing opportunity set. It is a maximal set that consists of mutually comparable alternatives. It also has the property that it maximizes the sum of the distances between its ordered elements for some appropriate metric imposed on the set of possible choices.

The Horse Forum
- Horse Talk
- - What would you do?? *warning long post*
What would you do?? *warning long post* Right I will warn everyone now this is a long post and will try and put as much detail into the post about the situation as I can. Right my boyfriend at the time helped me relise my childhood dream of having my own horse and he brought me a horse, we have since split. My mum was struggling paying rent for the yard she rents and said I could keep my horse with her ponies and my 18 year old sisters horse (She dont pay rent ect mum does pays all for her apart from now and then her boyfriend buys stuff for her) As long as i payed rent and pay towards the food for my horse cause there was no point me buying my own food as it would take up space and no point having double feeds there as shes on the same as some of my mums. Im a single parent and looking for work to get more coming in, My mum know says I owe her like £300 (shes brought stuff with out notifying me) and now shes telling me i should send my horse to the collage my sister studies at (which will mean there will only be four days a month I can actually go and see my horse casue i only have 4 days a month where my daughter goes to her dads parents) or sell my horse... Mum has being going on about how im to fat to ride my horse too (she does need more build up on her top line but i ride her once every two weeks and thats if my mum allows me too, My 18 sis rides her a lot to help build her up and even then thats with out them asking me first or again letting me know) I dont even have a key to the gate to the yard or the tack room so I cant do nothing with my horse enless they are there anyway. So mums been really nasty today all because i told her i dont want to send my horse to the collage and i broke down in tears and said i would rather sell her so least im not feeling like im letting my horse down by hardly being able to see her ect and so shes not being wasted and my mum rekons she wont allow me to sell her till i pay her £300 for the stuff shes brought her like extra hay and girths ect she didnt need at the time ect, So i said you can have that money when i sell her so she said or you can just give us your horse and scrap the £300 you owe me and you can ride her next year when you lose weight, Im 12 1/2 stone 5 foot 6, My horse is a dwb 16.2 and her privious owner who had her many years was same height but 15 plus stone and never had any problems. this horse jumps up to 6foot and could possibly go higher and is very high in dressage and also does XC... my boyf at the time payed £1000 for her and my mum said she was worth more than that, she knows privious owner and she was only that price as it was health issues that previous owner has that forced her to sell her. Im just wondering what other people would do in this situation?? Its breaking my heart big time and its caused many hours of tears too... :'( |
That sounds like a rough situation all around. How old are you? If you are a parent yourself, it sounds like you're plenty old enough to be running your own life rather than having your family run roughshod over you. You may need to take a hard look at yourself, your life, and your finances. Can you afford to take care of this horse on your own? If so, it sounds like you need to move her somewhere else, where you can take care of her and ride her as you see fit. If it was me, I'd pay my mom off the money she thinks I owe her over time as I could afford to, just so she couldn't hold that over me any more. If your mare is a healthy horse, at 16+ she should have no problems carrying your weight. If you cannot afford to take care of this horse, then selling her may well be your best option. I expect that no matter what you decide to do, it will be very dramatic and with much complaint from your family's side. Oh well. You'll have to learn to do what you know needs doing or continue on with the status quo... |
Hmm! Nothing you have written, sounds good. You say you are a single mum and seeking work. Who is keeping you now? If you are on government assistance, then you shouldn't be owning a horse. If you have some kind of other income and are well able to take care of your home and child and with money left over, then you should possibly find another yard, in which to stable your horse. Pay that which you owe to your mum and move. You sound very young. Does the father of your child, help with finances? If not, make sure he does. Your writing suggests the need for more schooling. Sell the horse. Go back to school. Learn a trade. Later, when you have a paying career, you can easily purchase another horse. You say your horse jumps 6'. Very unusual for the average horse. If indeed this is true, then you should be able to generate a quite good price for him. I wish you well. Young, single mothers, have a very difficult time these days. Lizzie |
I'm sorry for your situation, but I have to agree with FeatheredFeet's post. You are a single mother and have a child to raise so selling the horse or if you can't part with her letting your sister take it would free you up from the expense and worry of owning her. You need to concentrate on supporting yourself and your child, and working on your future financial security. I don't mean to be harsh but you can't have it all sometimes. Work now to secure the future, and then worry about keeping a horse after you've provided for your child. |
OP-as difficult as it may seem, you have gotten good advice, and right now-the kid(s) are priority 1. I was not a single parent and still had to give up riding until they were a bit older....then I leased for abit. Reassess, reprioritze if necessary and do what you have to do to place family first. |
I dont mean to sound ungreatfull for all you advice ect but I think its a bit out of order some of the things said. 1. My daughter gets everything she needs and always does. She never goes with out what she needs and has all my time and love to. My daughter is NOT missing out on anything just because I have a horse. 2. There are MANY people in the world who dont work but have a horse. Me not working is not my choice and hence now my daughter is at full time school it is giving me more time to find a job to get back to work. Im not just some 'scum' on benifits who is not caring for her daughter cause i have a horse ect. 3. Im 27 years old 4. So yeh my daughter is loved and looked after and feed and watered and bathed and clean and all she should be, im not a bad mum and my horse is the same. Im not the kind to neglect either my daughter or my horse. What I am saying is that i dont just have a spare £300 sitting in my pocket to give my mum just so she gives me the permision to sell MY horse if thats what I decided to do, and I dont just intend to 'hand over' MY horse to my sister who dont pay for sod all her self, but with my mum not letting me sell her first then give her the money I apparently owe its making the situation difficault as I dont like the situation and I love my horse to bits but trying to do whats best for her but my mum is making that hard but not allowing me to sell her till she gets £300 or just hand my horse to them etc |
No one is implying that you are "scum on benefits", simply that if you don't have the income to have the extra 300 pounds your mother seems to be holding your horse hostage for then perhaps you should reevaluate your priorities. Best of luck whatever you decide to do. |
Hear what you say, and stand by what I said. Good luck. |
If your mom is holding that money over your head, then I think you're best option is to sell the horse, use that money to pay your mom back and save for a horse all on your own, no strings attached. It sounds like if you keep this horse, there will always be something she will hold over your head making it more of a hassle than it is worth. Good luck! |
OP, you asked in your thread title, "what would you do" and that is exactly what the people responding to you answered with - very kindly and politely I might add - so there is no reason to respond with venom. Seeing that you are not receptive to honest assessment of the situation I am not going to waste my breath. |

The aircraft would even have the ability to transform into inconspicuous objects, like an "innocuous piece of trash hanging from the cable." This would be achieved using existing technologies for collapsible wings and "sliding skins" that would allow the fuselage to change shape.AdvertisementNaturally, the notion of landing on a power line is riddled with challenges. For starters, the device could easily cause a discharge of sparks that would give away its position. Despite these challenges and the admission that the whole concept is "bizarre," the AFRL is planning on conducting test flights in 2008. [New Scientist]Reply36 repliesLeave a reply

This is absolutly brilliant. How many times have you gone to the lunch room only to find some idiot has commandeered your sandwhich? It works by pre-painting fake mold on the sandwich bag.
But such delicacies are often stolen by people who "accidentally" mix them up with their own bologna on Wonderbread.

text: Well, yeah, because prewarn is not a real word, while preheat is. "Prewarn" is just a dumbass's word for "forewarn", which is a real word. But I don't think "forewarn" makes less sense than "preheat", because you can warn someone off your property, or you can warn someone that you're gonna be late... but you can forewarn someone like, "the council has been forewarned of any deliberate intention to incur an annual deficit." It makes it 100% clear that the warning was intentionally issued before any harm could come, just as preheat makes it clear that you should heat the oven before putting the frozen pizza in.

Difference between revisions of "Port Louis"
Revision as of 03:24, 31 December 2012Port Louis is the capital of Mauritius. ContentsGet inFrom the International Airport, head north-west and follow the signs "Port-Louis" (Port-Louis is at the opposite side of the island, an about two hours drive). Get aroundThe city of Port-Louis has played a leading part in the struggle between the French and British occupation (1735-1935) and was considered during that period as `the star and the key of the Indian Ocean`. There are many historical places and buildings to visit. It is also one of the best place to learn and appreciate more about the Mauritian cultures and traditions. See
DoVisit the Caudan Waterfront, a meeting place for teenagers and young lovers, which is comprised of a shopping centre, kiddyland and a huge food court offering most cuisines. If you want to have a glimpse of Mauritian life, go to the Port-Louis Market where varieties of exotic food, fruits and other items are sold. There you will meet Mauritians from all over the country who have come to shop. BuyPort-Louis is famous in Mauritius for the low price of clothes sold there. Imported from China or India, or made locally, the articles sold in Port-Louis really offer value for money. You can easily get something of your choice from the numerous hawkers found all along the streets in the city. Mauritian food is pure abundance of savoury international flavors, including but not limited to delicious Creole curries, cuisines from all over Africa, Southeast Asia and India, and an abundance of fresh seafood that has never been frozen or shipped on an airplane. All of that, and more! DrinkBlue Mauritius Rum, a very special world-recognized liquor. There are also many highly acclaimed white rums, including spiced, vanilla, and coffee. Quality Merlot from local wineries. Also look for Lagrein and Diamond wines. Award winning Mauritian Phoenix Pale Ale and beer,locally called 'spider beer'.

General Hardware General hardware related questions. |
Thread Tools | Display Modes |
I have an older LCD from around 2004/2005 that will give the "no signal" error message if it is not turned on before the PC. I don't think it damages anything as it now on my wife's PC and still working fine.
"The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words." -Philip K. Dick |
Thanks, that's interesting. It sounds like for that one the "no signal" screen could be a safety feature to prevent some problem when it's used wrong, perhaps. My new monitor though will sync to the signal if it's turned on after.
There's another side to this apart from the power-on order at the start or end of a computer on/off cycle.
If you're using the DPMS features of X, such as setting the StandbyTime in xorg.conf, then when the inactivity timeout arrives, X shuts off the video signal. The monitor then shuts off the backlight and the power light goes orange, but it's still on. Once there's activity again (keyboard or mouse), the signal is restored and the monitor will come back on. This should be OK because it was never off before the "computer came back on". Where it gets tricky, it seems, is that the monitor can be configured to turn off completely after 3 minutes of no signal. If you enable that feature (to save more power), and if you want to obey the power-on order rule, then there's a potential problem. You need to turn the monitor back on by hand before doing any activity that would restart the signal. But, you can't be sure of doing this because there can be accidental mouse activity that restarts the signal while the monitor is off, and of course you can't see that it happened! So you could be turning the monitor on after the signal is back. ISTM to avoid this you have to leave the 3-minute power-off feature disabled. |
I haven't had issues with the ordering of monitors/computers in many years.
However, back in the day, it used to be very important that the monitor was turned on first. Some PCs, if it didn't detect a video signal at boot, would disable the video port completely. Again, hasn't been an issue in many years, but if you are using ancient hardware (pre-P4 I think), then it's something to watch out for. |
Well from personal experience, a machine that's older than that never had any problems with monitors being off on startup.
On the other hand a P4 machine had a small issue with a CRT monitor. If I started it without the monitor being on and then switched it on it would display a low intensity image. If I rebooted the machine with the monitor still being on the display would have a normal intensity again.
May the source be with you! |
Thanks Beastie. Yes, I also didn't have a problem with the previous machine, an AMD K6-2 500 (similar to Pentium). I guess it could be very specific to the design of some machines, to decide to turn off the graphics signal if no monitor is detected. Even that is not so bad, no damage would occur, and you could just reboot.
Now this is interesting. I dug up the manuals for the two monitors previous to the previous monitor.
(previous)^3, TTX 1400F monochrome CRT: Quote:
(previous)^2, IBM 17V CRT: Quote:
Older monitors needed sync signals from the computer when you turned them on. Otherwise, the CRT "beam" would sit in the middle of the screen and burn it out or heat up the internal circuitry. CRTs soon added protection for that, of course.
Thanks drhowarddrfine. That would explain such warnings on older monitors, though I never had that problem with the IBM (the manual warning could take on a life of its own for some time I suppose). I don't think the TTX had that problem either, though it's been a long time ... it's still packed away in storage, might even work.
Being, uh, frugal, I have six CRT monitors, five in storage. Three are from computers I bought from 1998 to 2001. Two are only lightly used. I will wait till they all burn out before I buy a flat screen monitor.
I guess I'll never own a flat screen monitor. |
I use a crt as a foot rest!!
I have a samsung sm 23 inch model that cannot start if i turn it on after the pc. So it is possible that newer model too have these problems. |

Beware if you have a lot of tweaks. Have yet to find the tweak on my phone it conflicts with.
Waste of cash. Why would you buy this when you can do it for free with SbSettings or ios7
I think that you guys are missing the point of this Tweak. Lets say you want to turn on private browsing for Safari.
Normally you would go:
safari -> homescreen -> settings -> safari table -> private browsing -> home screen -> safari
With an activator activation this simplifies to:
safari -> settings -> safari table -> private browsing -> homescreen-> safari
With SideSettings, you don't even have to leave safari. And it opens up the safari settings automatically:
safari -> safari table -> private browsing -> safari
This may seem like a small change, but it works with every app that has a settings page, and I've found that it makes it a lot easier to change settings on my device. Although I may be a little bit biased.

Red welts06/30/2008 |
3 days ago I broke out with small red welts on the inside of my thighs,basically where the leg openings of your underwear rest, and they itch and also have a tip such as you would find from a bite. I have been doing some gardening, the only thing different from usual activities
From your description alone, it is not possible to pinpoint the exact cause. This rash should be seen by your primary care doctor who will advise whether further consultation is necessary.

Another of my friends has it and he says its got wierd controls and just doesn't feel right to play it. He says it's fun but definatly don't get this as your only game.
i actually got the game at launch and have spent many hours playing it and personally love it the controls are a little awkward at first but after u get used to them the game is pretty interesting in idea and story but the game play does need a little work i would say rent it before buying it but if u like that style of gameing check out far cry its awesome
ive learned to not trust the magazines and tv shows because they tend to be biased and also have way to high of expectations so i just always rent before i buy i would try game fly or something:)
Sometimes it makes you wonder. A company spends alot of money on advertising in a magazine...then their new CAN'T MISS title comes out and gets good ratings....and you get it home and it sucks lol. I always find it interesting to check out a few sites just because some opinions are so extreme. I remember exit for the psp got horrible ratings on ign but did well everywhere else.
I also heard that there is no blood in the game! Is this true? How could a game with swordplay not have any BLOOD?!?!?
Red steel is fun, but not great. It's a middle-end gamecube looking game. Im not a fan of sword fighting, but I love shooting, no surprise.
This game was a launch title, so of course it's going to be a bit sketchy, just like COD3.
But don't fret.
Look at Halo 1 (launch title) vs. Halo 2, and clearly notice the diff in graphics.
RE4 for GC, a late title, but well worth it.
I predict that within months, they will know what they can do with the Wii, including giving us simple firmware updates to exceed their graphics. There will be an absolutely insane shooting game for the wii. be patient. Red Steel was what u can call...a test

text: Is "Burn-In" Still an Issue on TVs and Monitors?Whitson Gordon2/06/13 10:00amFiled to: Ask LifehackerTVTelevisionsHardwareburn inMonitorsComputer MonitorsPlasmaLCDTop902EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Dear Lifehacker, I remember in the old days of CRTs, my dad would warn me about dreaded "burn-in" on my computer screens and TVs. I know there was a big debate about plasma TVs and burn-in too, but is it still a problem? Does it affect LCDs? Do I need to care at all? Advertisement Sincerely, Screen SaverDear Screen Saver, In general, burn-in isn't nearly the problem it once was. However, you should still be aware of what it is and how to prevent it. Here's what you need to know.What Is Burn-In? Burn-in is permanent damage to a screen caused by showing the same image for a long period of time. For example, if you have a TV on which you watch CNN 24 hours a day, you'll likely experience the burn-in of the CNN logo in the bottom right-hand corner. Even when you change the channel or turn off the TV, a faint outline of that logo will still be there because it's "burned in." Advertisement Burn-in is permanent, but it's often confused with "image persistence," which is a temporary version of the same thing. Burn-in is most prominent in CRT and plasma screens, which use phosphors to create the image on your TV or monitor. However, it's also possible to cause image persistence on an LCD-based screen, though it's rarer. Photo by Nate.The Current State of Burn-In and Image Persistence CRTs and Older plasma TVs were quite susceptible to burn-in, but many modern TVs have features designed to lower the risk. Many contain a feature called "pixel shifting," for example, that shifts the image on your screen just enough so that the pixels are regularly changing, (but not so much that it's noticeable to you). Some cheaper plasmas may be more susceptible, so this is an area where you get what you pay for.That said, you should still practice good habits with your TV and monitor. Screens are most susceptible to burn-in in the first 100 hours of use, says CNET, so for those first 100 hours keep your contrast low (below 50%), and try to avoid watching non-widescreen shows. Those black bars on the sides of the screen can cause image persistence. Other than that, just use common sense: turn on your computer's screen saver. Don't leave your TV on the CNBC ticker for days at a time, and don't play video games without breaks (since their menus and overlays stay in the same place). You don't need to go overboard with worry, just treat your TV with a little care—primarily within those first 100 hours—and you'll be fine.How to Get Rid of Image Persistence If you do experience a little image persistence, it's probably just temporary, and you can get rid of it with almost no effort. We've shared one method before, but you probably don't even need to go that far. All you need to do is watch some TV. Make sure its widescreen, try to avoid anything that has the same image that's burned in (obviously), and it should go away within a few minutes or hours, depending on how severe it is. The chances of getting permanent burn-in are pretty slim these days. You'd have to actually try to burn in your screen. With regular home use, you're probably not watching the same persistent image for long enough. If you have a business that shows the same image on screen all day long, that might be a different story, but for most personal use, you shouldn't have to worry. Photo by Aaronyx.

Behold, American Brontë-Heads: You Can Now See the Jane Eyre Manuscript in the Flesh
The moment you've been waiting your whole life for.
By Dayna EvansThe moment you've been waiting your whole life for.
By Dayna EvansIn this week's reviews, Cuozzo draws his six-shooter on Tim Love and Ted Turner, Ryan Sutton drinks the $12 bottled water at Gilt, Andrea Strong's blood boils over the pricey wines at Devin Tavern, and more. Cuozzo to Tim Love and Ted Turner: "Welcome to New York: Now leave!" [NYP] Ryan Sutton takes the temperature at Gilt now that the foam has cleared and finds that "if Liebrandt's cuisine was hyperactive, [new chef Christopher] Lee's is hyper-restrained." Though the grub's a bit cheaper, there's still a $12 "you just got fleeced'' fee on bottled water. [Bloomberg] Julia Moskin visits the Morgan's dining room, the latest in arty eateries, and finds the nicest restaurant salad she's had in years. Of the beef Wellington: "Some dishes, like musicals, should never be revived." [NYT] Paul Adams contemplates the sublime porkiness of Momofuku Ssäm Bar [NYS] At Palo Santo, a Pan-Latin joint on a Slope side street, $25-and-Under (not the super-stingy Meehan we've been loving) unearths off-the-menu items like beef-cheek asopado. [NYT] Reeling from "Spain's 10," Augie taps the tapas at Boqueria and finds they rock almost as hard as Jane's Addiction doing "Ripple." [Augieland] Taking up the good fight alongside Meehan, Andrea Strong visits Devin Tavern and her blood boils over the $40-plus wine list: "This is not very tavern like. Come on." [Strong Buzz] Ignoring the Gobbler's advice on how not to get made, the Amateur Gourmet is exposed at Country. [Amateur Gourmet] Katie Julian weighs in on the Tasting Room and agrees with everyone else: Some dishes work (porcini topped with a fried egg and crispy pork skin), and others don't (raw matsutake-mushroom slices drizzled with "cheese-pumpkin juice"). [NYer] BlackBook delves into Haute Barnyard at Flatbush Farm. [BlackBook]

A polarizing pop star, an experimental filmmaker and a Swedish clothing company join forces for a new commercial and, surprisingly, it works. To promote their fall 2012 collection, H&M enlisted the help of singer/songwriter Lana Del Rey and filmmaker David Lynch.
The result is a two-minute music video of LDR performing Bobby Vinton's "Blue Velvet" while a series of Lynchian characters (little person and all) look on. The only indication that the video is tied to a brand is the sudden H&M title card at the very end. Watch the clip below. [HT]

Well, the good thing is to know that most people in the world from more humble backgrounds (or maybe especially them) try to cook visually pleasing. Like the one set of pictures after the mutilated chicken-at-school-dish. With the rest of his pictures, I'm sure he's just trying to provoke the viewers of "one of the most reclusive threads" on SF. He could give some information about the culture he lives in and how it relates to the food he posts, but somehow he doesn't. I don't mind looking at those pictures, I just mind that he's trying to provoke with them.

As robots patiently seek coadunation with their human counterparts, it only makes perfect sense that we begin
designing them to mimic the finer parts of our own behavior. Like alcoholism and panhandling, for instance. Creepily
misanthropic, the Bar Bot's primary objective is beer consumption, which it accomplishes by begging passersby for
money. When it's collected enough dough for a brew, it orders one up from the bar (someone still has to hand it to the
Bar Bot, though) which it proceeds to drink; only then will the Bar Bot interact with you outside of asking for money
or booze. Kind of like going to a singles night, if you think about it.

Hello everyone, my name is Bar Bot, and I have a problem

CLERMONT - For many military veterans, the journey home means a longer than expected recovery more than it means returning.
Many veterans bring home extra baggage in the forms of physical or mental disabilities due to a wide variety of stress-related reasons.
Bullitt County was located along the road for a handful of veterans now raising awareness of such issues as part of The Long Road Home Project.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - Last year an estimated 1.5 million students across the U.S. took the Preliminary Scholastic Assessment Test with hopes of becoming National Merit Scholars.
When Bullitt East High School senior Kelly Farner found out she was named a semifinalist in the 2013 National Merit Scholarship Program after earning one of the highest scores in the state she was overwhelmed.
FOX CHASE - Lois Whitis likes to try new things.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - Folks from throughout the community recently gathered at MillaNova Winery in Mount Washington for a Summer's Night Out benefitting Bullitt County's Court Appointed Special Advocates.
MOUNT WASHINGTON - Between going to school and practicing four to five times a week, it's hard to imagine Eastside Middle School cheerleaders have time for anything else, much less community service.
But somehow these youngsters manage to balance it all and they recently stepped up their service efforts.
In light of National School Spirit Week and the Universal Cheerleaders Association's Community Service Week Eastside cheerleaders participated in a number of service initiatives.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - Students at Shepherdsville Elementary may have fresh ink all over themselves...but don't you dare pick on them!

Bob Stinson of Hillview has been a previous participant in contests in the Kentucky State Fair.
He won ribbons in the past. Thanks to his wife's purchase of a lathe upon his retirement in 2005, the woodturner had equipment to use in his hobby.
This year, Stinson captured his first blue ribbons at the Kentucky State Fair. He won blue for his free standing wooden decoration vase.
He also won a second-place red ribbon for his bracelet and pendant made of wood.

- - 1st nor'easter
1st nor'easter
Hey all,
I am experiencing my 1st nor'easter in NE with my PSC31. She has a double 7/8 double braided line pennant each with a galvi thumble attached to the top of my "pass through" mooring ball. The two pennant lines are laced together with for the first 6 feet with small stuff and floats to make a bridle. The bridle needs to be a bit tight so that one bridle line does not wrap around the mooring ball when things go "willy nilly". There is not much fetch from the NE in my harbor but if the wind was out of the SW there would be 3or4 footers. As the boat sails back and forth the loaded pennant crosses the bobstay, which I was able to cover with a length of 5/8 clear tubing split and taped closed. There is also double chafing gear on the pennant where the bobstay makes contact with the pennant. Seems to be wearing fine for now. Question is: the hawsers in the bulwarks are three feet back from the bow, how would the boat behave with a single pennant or both pennants on the same side?? |
From my anchoring experience with attempting a single hawse hole I don't think the single side is a good idea. It presents a lot more windage and swinging. I no longer use that method of holding the chain.
But New England harbours are not nearly as sheltered as Chesapeake creeks. For anchoring, we bring the rode in over the roller. |
One worked for me
I used to have to anchor Asylum out in a creek during hurricane warnings and we did have some hurricanes, Cat2, blow through. Using one hawse worked just fine with a lot of chafe gear. Although I was never out to watch during the storms, everything seemed fine in the prelude and aftermath.

BIG things happening around here
They also decorated inside. It was a party!
The boys were pretty excited to meet their new sister. They sported "Biggest Brother" and "Big Brother" shirts and came bearing gifts. (Please excuse my crazy bed head)
Kyle was a bit apprehensive at first as we tried to help him hold her hand.
Truthfully, I don't think he was very impressed at all. Don't worry, he's since warmed up to her.
Zach was bursting at the seems waiting for his turn to hold her.

Without any prompting from Mom, Zach decided to wait for his brother at the top so that he could give him some moral support. He took his hand, counted to three...
And away they went!

Big Truck Day
One of the favorite "big trucks" was a stretch hummer limousine. Zach's entire class fit comfortably inside. Pretty Fancy!
After making the rounds through most of the trucks we took a break for some ice cream.
Though I really regretted the fact that I only had 3 wipes left in my clean up arsenal. Oh Boy!
We finished off with a visit to "Optimus Prime",
Checked out some HUGE wheels

Grandma's Pancakes
And we giggled at Grandma's silly mini pancakes.
Mmmmm.... they sure taste good!
(Apparently, Zach wasn't super thrilled with having his picture taken at this moment. He really did enjoy his mini pancakes though)
Truth is, try as I might. I just can't seem to make mini pancakes like grandma does. I guess I just need some to get some more practice. Pancakes anyone?

Rocket Launch
And off it went into the sky. Kyle was sure he saw where it went and all of the cousins bolted to see if they could catch it on it's way down. I was sure it was gone forever. Zach was sure it had struck the moon.
By some miracle, Uncle Trent managed to locate the tiny green rocket (among a bunch of green shrubs no less) and he retrieved it for Zach. Zach excitedly retold the story numerous times.
"Mom! We shot the rocket clear into space! It TOOK off. And it went to space mom! And then it came back down and we FOUND it! We FOUND it mom! After it came back from space!"
I think we're going to have to put rocket launching on our list of things to go again as soon as we have the opportunity. Thanks Uncle Tyson!

Firefighters, Cops Warn Republicans Anti-Union Stance Has Consequences
Firefighters, Cops Warn Republicans Anti-Union Stance Has Consequences
WASHINGTON -- Leaders from two unions known to support the Republican Party warned of serious repercussions for GOP candidates in the 2012 elections, saying the onslaught of anti-labor bills in state capitals has shifted their political allegiances.
"Our political principles are pretty straightforward. We'll support those that support us," Harold Schaitberger, general president of the International Association of Fire Fighters, told HuffPost. "We tend to stick with those who stick with us."
"I don't want to say we are unhappy with Republicans but we are very unhappy with the far-right wing of the party that seems to have taken the Republican Party hostage," said Canterbury, whose union endorsed George W. Bush and John McCain in the last three presidential elections. "We are extremely unhappy with the snowball that rolled in in Ohio and we are traditionally a very conservative organization. We've been bipartisan.....But with the actions that have taken place, there's going to be tremendous reprisals taken out at the polls" by police and their families."They feel like their public officials turned their back on them."

Adrian Clayborn is by far the best. He lead the team in sacks last year, where was Bennett? I'm not saying I don't like Bennett. He lead the team in sacks in his rookie year, he would have this year.
Our problems at DE are the result of him being down and Te'o Nesheim, a capable backup, having to be a starter. Would the Vikes pass rush be hurting if Jared Allen went down or the Broncos if Miller went down? Very few teams if any who wouldnt see production go down when their best pass rusher gets hurt.
Welcome To Tampa Vernon!!!
Bennett is fourth in pressures on 3rd and 4th down and 8th in there pass rush productivity formula.
Well guys its safe to say that we should have one hell of a DE combo with Bennett and Clayborn, and not to mention throw Bowers in the mix....now we just gotta get that damn secondary fixed
Lmaooooo at ppl still mentioning Bowers

^^^how do you give up on guys after less than a calendar year....hes literally been a tampa bay buccaneer for like 20 months...smh
Welcome To Tampa Vernon!!!
M. Bennett has 9 sacks this season, and he is also a beast against the run. If Clayborn is better then an all around DE that has 9 sacks in 13 games, then I would say we are pretty set at the DE position. You guys go out and find a guy that can stop the run, and produce double digit sacks, that we can afford after extending Freeman & Willaims, replacing/re-signing R. Miller, and fixing our secondary issues. You find the guy, and I will admit that we should do it! I think some of you are living in fantasy land!

BTY, to those of you who think we should go after Umenyiora-
Giants fans cannot wait for him to be gone. He is 31, and terrible against the run. He had one good season a few years ago, and that is it. He is also a bad teamate, and a guy that can only be used on 3rd down. Don't think that we need to go out there and simplt sign a guy who has a well know name. That is not goning to solve our problems!
@ aecon...are you saying clayborn is not better than bennett or are you agreeing? you kind of said it in a wierd way.
I know a couple of guys in here from what I've read think similarly to me and that is if Bennett is re-signed that is fine. If the money he is looking for lands a better player and it's a slight upgrade than that's fine too.
One thing that does need to be pointed out is that Bennett only had 6 sacks in his previous 3 years. 1 each of his first two and 4 last year. Right now I get the feeling that we re-sign Bennett, let Miller walk and possibly sign Martellus Bennett..hopefully we get a 2-1 discount.

There are plenty of challenges to painting outside, perhaps the most frustrating is the wind. The breeze provides relief from the heat of the day, but also, sudden wind can flip your wet painting face down onto the ground. I've spent a fair amount of time picking bugs and grass off of my paintings. C'est la vie!
Here are some of my recent paintings done in the great outdoors, under the hot, hot, hot sun.

speaking as an Irishman, American evangelicals are just not good at cross-cultural "humour". i've experienced it first hand. it sucks! America is no longer "land of the free", if it ever was. it also no longer has a one-time dominant-role in the future of Christianity, thank God! believe it or not, God is a bit bigger than the USA :)
Christoph Koebel
Well I'm neither an American nor Asian. It is another example of insensitivity by a (well-known) American.
I am an American Chinese that had been in the US since the 1960s. When I read the respond of Pastor Warren, asking everyone to have a sense of humor, I wonder what Pastor Warren found so humorous about that picture? Is it the act of posting that picture humorous, and I hope it is not the starting of a church in Hong Kong humorous. If we read the history of mission in China, we found many example of missionaries not understanding the culture of China. Their intention was good, but they did not receive much blessing from God toward their ministry. I hope we will not make that mistake again.

Getting Pretty Muddy for Cancer Research
Brendan Fleming's support of charity got down and dirty recently with Zoe Brettle leading our team getting Pretty Muddy at Crofton Park in Longbridge in support of Cancer Research. Not your typical fundraising event, Race for Life Pretty Muddy is a 5k muddy obstacle course where women of any ability can climb, jog and walk all over cancer. And that's exactly what our girls did, raising £270 for Cancer Research UK; and playing their part in the £145,390 raised by the event in total. Watch this space for further fund raising from the team!
