It's been a while since we've had enough questions for me to do this but today happens to be one of the days I DO have enough! For those of you who don't know about this I take questions over Twitter you can find me at the LodurZJ user name or you can use the hash tag #asklodur. Ask lodur is where I take the serious and the silly questions from our readers and give them an answer. Think of it as a Dear Abbey WoM style 😉 So without further ado, here's today's Ask Lodur!
Dear Lodur,
Will the new pet store cause the fall of WoW civilization as several WoW-"experts" have suggested?
The Zet
Dear Zet,
I can honestly say I don't think so. Not unless they decide to let you buy say…Onyxia as a pet that you can unleash in PvP! Honestly though the addition of a pet store is nothing more then cutting out the middle man in the quest for more shinny non combat items for us in game. I hardly think that this break the game, and it is a FAR cry from being the Micro transaction model that other games such as Dungeons and Dragons Online and various other MMO's have employed. This is no different then buying the cards for the collectible card game and getting an in came code.
Dear Lodur
Do you condone breaking and entering? Would you be ok someone broke into Blilz HQ for the supersecret t10 Shaman gear?
Dear Kirby,
Well I personally don't condone breaking and entering, I feel that the fact that Blizzard has not released the Shaman tier 10 to be as good a reason as any to look the other way >.> While I myself wouldn't do it… if it happened to find it's way across my desk I wouldn't ask where it came from ….
Dear Lodur,
In the absence of trustworthy feedback, how do you evaluate your healing performance? Especially as a rsham?
Dear The Rogue
An honest judgement of how you evaluate your healing performance can be done a few ways for a Resto Shaman. The first thing to look as is… Did the raid wipe? If the answer is no, then you're pretty good to go. If the answer is yes then you need to look a little bit deeper. Was the cause of the wipe the target you were assigned to heal? Was it caused by a "stupid" death that you couldn't heal through? Honestly it's very hard to judge your performance individually. Basically if no one died or it isn't a wipe, count it as a win 😉
Dear Lodur,
boxers, briefs, none or "other"?
Dear Shamanfan,
um… I don't really know how to answer that one. Honestly though, it depends on the gear. If I'm in a kilt, there's no reason not to go full dress! If I'm in actual chain maille pants well… that's another story.
Dear Lodur
I have this thing were I feel the need to only cast PW:S on everyone. Do I have a problem?
Dear BubbleBoi,
YES! seek help immediately! There is more to life then bubbles alone! If you continue down this path you will develop Bubbleitis! This is a very serious problem that results in tunnel vision, blurry awareness and can escalate as far as deadraidsyndrome! Get help before it's too late!
That's it for todays Ask Lodur, be sure to use the contact form on this site, or pop on twitter and ask away!
Until next time, Stay Classy Azeroth

N.Y. Academy's First Grads Part of Top Ten Visit Dayby Howard W. Hewitt • November 9, 2007 Share:
More than 170 students ranked in the top ten of their high school classes visited Wabash Friday during the fifth Top Ten Scholarship Visitation Day. After completing eligibility and being accepted, the high school seniors became eligible for up to $60,000 in scholarships for their four years.
Plenty of Indiana high school students joined young men from several states to learn more about Wabash College. For some it was their first-ever visit, while others have made previous trips to campus. See a photo album by clicking here.
One group of students from New York City might have had the most interesting path to visit Wabash. Seven students from the Eagle Academy for Young Men were on campus with guidance counselor Don Ruff for visitation.
The Eagle Academy has gotten significant attention in the New York City area. It is a public high school which is primarily African-American and Hispanic students in an all-male setting. The school was founded in 2004 and will graduate its first class of 82 this school year.
Dean of Admissions Steve Klein visited the school to talk about Wabash and 23 members of the senior class turned out to hear about Wabash.
"My goal is not just to get these kids into college but it's their successful matriculation once they get there," Ruff said Friday. "I want to set them up for success."
The Academy has enjoyed extraordinary support from New York chapter of One Hundred Black Men. The organization seeks to improve the quality of life in their community and enhance educational and economic opportunities for all African Americans.
Every Eagle Academy student has a mentor who spends four hours a week with the student. The successful male, African-American role models are often missing from these young men's home in the Bronx.
"I grew up in Harlem," Ruff explained. "I'm a first generation college student and was raised in a single-parent household. I was raised by all women. I grew up in an inner-city community in the projects."
But Ruff won a scholarship to Oberlin in Ohio and it changed his life. "My Oberlin education helped me get out of my negative New York mentality, having a chip on my shoulder and being very distrustful," he said. "Being at Oberlin and not having to worry about what block you're on or not having to look over your shoulder was a Utopia for me.
"That gave me a chance to come back and share my story with these students. My story reflects their experience. Education is the key to making a change in their life."
With no graduates to use as examples it's up to Ruff and other school staff members to provide examples for getting out of the city and getting a college education.
"It's a matter of getting the kids on track, getting them to understand cumulative grade point average and what that means.
"Honestly, the biggest challenge is the sticker shock when they see how much school costs. They clam up. It's something I have to fight just not with students but with parents."
Ruff is battling that hurdle by taking the conversation to eighth and ninth graders. He took a group of very young men to a college fair at Columbia this summer to expose them to the academic world.
"Remember some of these kids have never been out of the city," he said. He is trying to establish relationships with strong liberal arts colleges across the nation.
The Academy has gotten lots of attention for its success and the One Hundred Black Men, Inc. support. That attention has been aided by supporters like former New York City Mayor David Dinkins, actor Danny Glover, and entertainer Bill Cosby.
Ruff was extremely impressed during his discussions with Wabash alums during the visitation day. He hopes to get several of the seven students who visited interested in Wabash.
There were plenty of other stories, students from far away, and curious minds roving campus Friday. The young men and many of their parents were welcomed by Dean of Admissions Steve Klein and President Patrick White. The morning keynote address was given by Rich Calacci '91 who is a senior vice president with CBS.
Calacci told the young men Wabash is more than a place to get an education; he said Wabash provides a "template" for the rest of their lives. He assured the prospects they would learn to think critically and how to serve their families and communities during four years at Wabash.
Throughout the day the students and parents participated in a number of programs. Alumni panel members discussed how they put their liberal arts education to practical application in their careers. Students got real classroom exposure during break out sessions in different academic areas with Wabash College professors. Photos from sessions
The Top Ten Scholarship Day is for young men who rank in the top ten percent of their class after six semesters. Upon admission to the College, participants who complete their applications by the December 1, 2007 deadline will receive a Top Ten Scholarship with an annual value of $12,500 ($50,000 over four years). Students in the top five percent will receive Top Ten Scholarships valued at $15,000 ($60,000 over four years).
All Top Ten Scholarship Visit Day participants who apply for admission by December 1, 2007 will be mailed their admission decisions and scholarship awards on December 14, 2007.

text: Hi folks, I am a German student working on a UAV project. I bought a rotomotion IMU system a couple of months ago. This hardware is badly documented neigher on the Internet nor on the delivered documentation cdrom, but I managed to figure out how to read the gyro and PPM data with a VB.Net engine, where the PPM data was comming from my rc- receiver. Has anybody ever worked with this IMU? What I want to do is to design a computer guided modell airplane which controlls its flightpath by itself using GPS for position evaluation and the VB.NET engine (166Mhz embedded low power PC). How do I get to get this computer to control the servos instead of the PPM data when I let the aircraft control itself? Does anybody know what $ERPNI does ? Thank You?

General question for the thread: (I did do a search, and "ebay" didn't bring any results, so sorry if this was addressed already).
What do you think of Ebay and Half.com for buying anime?
In your experience, are there a lot of bootlegs out there, even for higher priced items?
Also, in your experience, is there such a thing as a "less then 4 dollars an ep" deal for an entire series, that turned out to be legit?
I'm having to rework my entire thought processes for anime shopping, because I'm used to going for the cheapest deal in town.. And that just doesn't seem to work with anime, or even general movie media, if you want a good product.

As a general rule of thumb, I wouldn't buy from ebay. I just don't trust the amount of bootlegs out there. Plus I'm not a fan of second hand goods at any rate. I own almost the entire DVD catalogue that Madman offers here in Australia (R0 discs by Australian law, woo!) and I'm quite proud to have a completely legit collection.
Shop around, by all means, but don't sacrifice quality to save a few dollars.

In most cases it's the same DVDs as released separately. So the contents of the box-set should be the same as if you purchased them one at a time (except you get a box as well).
In this case the Tokyo Underground Box-Set contains 6 DVDs, so chances are they are the same as the Vol 1 to 6 releases. Or in other words, I don't actually know but in the past the complete box-sets are usually the same. Maybe you could fire off an email to Geneon and ask directly.

So far, every "Perfect Collection" thinpack I've purchased has been a complete package (Love Hina Perfect Collection, Azumanga Daioh's Class Act, Martian Nadesico "Complete Chronicles" ... okay that one had some later follow on but meh).
And I'd avoid ebay like the plague unless you absolutely can't find what you want somewhere else. I wish more sellers would provide the ISBN numbers so you could verify they were at least portraying their stuff as "not bootleg". (got hit a couple of times by bootleg goofs and I'm STILL not quite sure my Tsukikage Ran re-issue collection isn't a bootleg...)

Same with my Ai Yori Aoshi vol. 1 (with box), i am not sure if it is really not a bootleg. I bought Ah! My Goddess Premium Boxset and i wonder did i do a good thing will i have all the extras? (not delivered to me yet) One more question about Elfen Lied DVD releases: which release has a OVA episode in it? Is it thinpack release or 4 volume (vectors) release?

Well, actually the way they spun it was to reward people who bought the singles.
It doesn't bother me that much (I don't usually look at extras anyway), but I was worried about what it would mean for an eventual PPD! thinpack, which is why I'm doing them in singles. Still, I have to hand it to ADV, they're still the most affordable/quickest at releasing collected editions.

Question to all ya experienced anime-buyers. I noticed recently that some DVDs come with japanese audio, and subtitles (along with the english subtitles). This is awesome of course if one studies japanese (I learn so much from fansubbed karaokes ) I checked yesasia, and found 1 anime for about 400 bucks (no kidding). Anyone know a source for this language setting for a reasonable price? I dont want bootlegs (of course), but 400???

Do you mean, like the anime comes with romanji and English subtitles? I'm not sure if that's what you mean, but if it is, then no. I've never seen an official R1 DVD release with a romanji subtitle track.

English soundtrack dub
Japanese soundtrack (no translation subtitles)
Japanese soundtrack (with translation subititles)
... and the new PPD footnotes option (cover the screen with explanations)
edit: (okay.. maybe some of the crossover repackaged stuff like Pokemon doesn't... but meh).
I also use anime to practice *listening* to Japanese with the caveat that anime characters are routinely far ruder than actual japanese are ever likely to be. And there's no reason to provide a romaji subtitle I can think of unless the character is mispronouncing a phrase so badly that even japanese would need a subtitle.. and then they'd want it in -kana. Sitting near japanese groups and eavesdropping is good practice as well (or actually interacting ).
Oh, and I'd avoid yesasia like the plague.. they run high, they often don't have what they say they have, and their shipping charges suck (my experience with them).
amazon.co.jp, nippon-export.com, cdjapan.co.jp -- are all more recommended if you're trying to buy R2 anime DVDs. But for listening to japanese, the R1s mostly are fine (dvdpacific.com). I hardly ever listen to the english tracks.
@rooboy: I used to be more "thinpack" driven but dvdpacific.com offers such a discount my desire wins out over long term economics I mostly buy thinpacks because they're all thats available for older works sometimes.

I meant like the entire episode, not just the OP/ED. That's what I got out of the guy/gal's post... but like I said, I'm not sure if I interpreted the meaning correctly.

One reason i get the thinkpacks is because some of the regular release don't have a Artbox.

EDIT: I should also clarify that I'm not really thinpack/collected driven so much as there's a lot of stuff that I've never owned. If I'm going to spend $30-$60 a month on DVD's, I'd rather get a full series or two than pick up one or two dvds. Of course this is all highly theoretical as I'm still buying singles for some series that I can't wait for the collected edition (Fullmetal Panic!The Second Raid and soon to be Black Lagoon), some that I'm afraid of what the thinpack will cut (Pani Poni Dash), and some that I'm trying to finish off because I decided not to wait on the collection on a whim (Mai Hime).
EDIT 2: I've been thinking about moving to Rightstuf too - not so much because of the DVD's, but because my whole DVD budget actually rolls up into my manga budget. And I'm thinking it might be cheaper to get it through RightStuf than through my local comic shop.

Does anyone knows about Spiral Complete DVD Box Set? As i noticed box has a different art. But what worries me is the amount of extras (not only on disc extras, but any printed extras too (if that exists)), is it the same or something has been cut?
I usually buy singles and limited editions, because i am a "collecting guy", but my interest and hobies are hurting my wallet badly I am ordering from Rightstuf, DVDPacific and Amazon.com and i didn't have any problems so far

Nothing has been cut from the DVDs, Spiral was released through Funimation. Their complete sets are just the dvds in the box (not thinpacked or anything else). On the other hand, Funi is usually rather sparse with extras for their second and third tier titles (i.e. the not Fullmetal Alchemist level).
I've almost bought that exact same box set like ten times. If you get it, would you PM me and let me know if it has the OP song in its entirety?

Board to consider school projects
The Catawba County Board of Commissioners will consider several repair and improvement projects at area schools at its meeting today.
These requests for approval include a funding-transfer request for Hickory Career and Arts Magnet High School (HCAM), a classroom-addition project at Webb A. Murray Elementary School and a cafeteria renovation at St. Stephens High School.
Funding for school projects and the debt associated with those projects comes from various sources in the school systems, such as federal stimulus dollars and lottery funding.
Catawba County applied in 2009 and 2010 for allocation of Qualified School Construction Bonds (QSCB), which were available through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The county received more than $21.5 million to build Newton-Conover Middle School and fund additions to Arndt Middle School.
Catawba County was notified in 2010 of additional QSCB funds, and it received $6.3 million in funding for a classroom-expansion project at Webb A. Murray Elementary School. That $4.6-million project was planned for the next four-year construction cycle and includes the addition of 16 classrooms, The O-N-E reported in December.
Catawba County Schools Board of Education chose not to add two additional classrooms to the school. Money remaining from the Murray project will fund the SSHS cafeteria renovation, which upgrades the school's kitchen and adds seats to its lunchroom.
"Rather than send those back, we planned on going to the next project," said Steven G. Demiter, CCS assistant superintendent of operations.
If commissioners give CCS the go-ahead, Demiter said the CCS Board of Education will bid out the SSHS project and hopes to approve bids in the coming month.
Commissioners will also consider a funding transfer at Hickory's newest high school. HCAM needs an asbestos abatement and design project completed at its facility, formerly Catawba Valley High School on Eighth Avenue NE in Hickory.
The improvement project requires commissioners to transfer $140,000 remaining from a roof-replacement project at the school. According to the Catawba County Board of Commissioners meeting agenda, the asbestos project costs $85,000 plus an additional $5,000 for air monitoring throughout the abatement process. The $5,000 for air monitoring will come from the maintenance budget.
Design costs for HCAM are $61,200. All, but $1,200 of that project, will come from the commissioners' transfer, if approved. The remaining costs will come from per capita or maintenance funds.
This is HCAM's first year in session, and the school focuses on technical- and career-center academies for students interested in criminal justice, cosmetology, culinary arts, acting, firefighting and other careers.
To pay off debt incurred during school construction projects, Catawba County uses North Carolina Education Lottery funding for the equivalent of one cent on the property tax, or $1.5 million, according to the board meeting agenda.
For fiscal year 2009-10, the county received more than $3 million in funding from the lottery to be distributed among the county's three school systems.
CCS received $2.1 million; Newton-Conover City Schools received about $530,000; and Hickory Public Schools received about $847,000.
Commissioners typically meet the first and third Mondays of every month, but this month's Jan. 17 meeting was moved to Tuesday because of the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.

We live in interesting times.
The advances of technology bring us information around the world instantly.
The past few years have brought financial challenges and upheavals the likes of which
most people have never seen or experienced before in their lifetimes.
The middle east is going through radical changes.
Terrorist activity – any type of violence against others seems widespread.
People are going through severe hardships and our planet is calling out for care and conservation.
Roy Eugene Davis asks,
"How do you live freely in a world being unduly influenced by negative news or unpleasant circumstances?"
He suggests:
1) Observe current events with dispassionate objectivity. Regardless of what occurs, know that an intelligently directed Power is certain to eventually produce ideal conditions for everyone. You can nurture the collective consciousness of the planet with your optimistic thinking, spiritual awareness and constructive actions.
2) Adhere to a wisely chosen, holistic lifestyle. Be mentally peaceful and emotionally stable. Acknowledge the innate, divine nature of everyone while being self-reliantly self-determined. Be responsible for your personal circumstances and improve your understanding of your true, spiritual nature and relationship with the Infinite.
Be thankful that you have the invincible power within you to prevail.
Like the Jaguar, be courageous and determined.
Know there is a Higher Power and that we are one.
🙂 Lee

Just wanted to throw my vote into the hat. I am interested in an ADE solution for Android OS as well. Checking out books online is great, but i want to read it on an Android tablet, many of which are to be released in the second half of this year. I hope Adobe is working on a solution.

Shortcovers is a version of KOBO ebook reader. It is based on Adobe EPUB format. So far I haven't figured out how to import books into my shortcovers app it seems to use the web browser to read the books on my account.

4. Re: ADE in Android?paulmonpics May 23, 2010 4:37 AM (in response to Jim Lester)
Another request for this. Android is really kicking off big time now and with the depth of devices it's going to on you want to get in there early with ADE support.

For what it is worth. I would like to say that I could perhaps understand not including Adobe Digital Editions on Android because of system limitations and what not. However, would it not be theoretically plausible to create an Adobe Digital Editions reader essentially creating an ADE profile making the phone or app a device? That is how the eReaders like the Nook and others that use Android as their OS do it. Somehow they have an ADE profile file that does all the communications and opens the doors for the books. Unless they somehow added Flash on those devices I don't see why it would be more difficult to create the same type thing for the Phone/tablet/netbook OS as well.

Bummer. I've had an ebook on hold from my library via Overdrive and was looking forward to reading it on my HTC Evo. Today the book became available, but it took quite a while to figure out I wasn't going to be able to get it on the Android. Nothing I had read through my library's website, Overdrive, or ADE had indicated Android was unsupported.
9. Re: ADE in Android?cxmedical Jun 29, 2010 4:43 PM (in response to Jim Lester)
At this point I am pulling the plug on ADE. I will not buy another book in the pdf format. It is very frustrating to have paid for something to find it to be of limited use.
10. Re: ADE in Android?clux13 Jul 11, 2010 8:12 AM (in response to amandajlee)
OK i found this link to and Android app.
There is says it opens PDF files. My question is still the same as the rest hear i believe. If i get the Android Pad and download this app will it open and read the PDF e-reader files from my local library? I dont want to buy the pad if this is not possible as this is the reason im getting any kind of e-reader in the first place. Some here say it doesnt but the video shows them opening a PDF file. Does it only open some document like files and not e-book type ones?
11. Re: ADE in Android?RobMcDougall Jul 11, 2010 4:03 PM (in response to clux13)
I think JimLester answered that very clearly already. No it won't. It's for basic PDF viewing and nothing more. No forms, no digital editions, no Rights Management, no Reader Extensions.
Apparently, those things are in the plan, but they have other platforms that they want to provide basic PDF viewing on before they can get around to adding extras onto the platforms that already have it.
12. Re: ADE in Android?clux13 Jul 12, 2010 3:47 PM (in response to clux13)
I did a little more internet digging and i found this app which works for some android
items. Does anyone know if it works for the tablet?
Aldiko Book Reader
The site says it works for the EPub type files that some librarys have. I still havent seen a full App for the book PDFs, But if this one will work for some i might still get the tablet and wait for and PDF app.

For what it is worth. The Nook app includes ADE. However, it seems that it doesn't support books with DRM aside from protected DRM books from Barnes and Noble.

Does the Nook app work for ADE book from public libraries?
17. Re: ADE in Android?fezzik77 Aug 10, 2010 11:35 AM (in response to clux13)
Sorry I can't say. I haven't used any books from the library. I know the app supposedly supports loaning books so I assume it would be the same deal. I have some books I downloaded from KOBO and I haven't tried them yet I kept having issues with trying to copy books that didn't exist to my sd card through ADE but now I have one that actually shows size so who knows.
Ok so I just tried to open the Stand which I bought from KOBO and it is a no go. I can read it in ADE but not on the Nook.
18. Re: ADE in Android?bookskt Aug 11, 2010 7:41 PM (in response to amandajlee)
I download books from the library all the time and usually read them on my Tablet PC
but I have gotten them to work on my phones.
The mobipocket books with DRM from the library have worked on my verizon droid . Unfortunately the vast
majority of the books are epub or pdf. I think I used the 'iReader' app which allows you to put in your
mobipocket PID number both in the droid as well as up on the library site and then it will open them.
It will usually say 'unable to open' and then it opens them and loads them to the droid.
The old Adobe (I used to use version 6 to read ebooks but then Adobe screwed things up after that)
worked fine for sending things to my old Windows PC phone. But when they came out with that horrible
ADE it didn't work anymore. How can a company be so regressive to have had a perfectly good working
product like the Adobe 6 (or maybe it was 7) and then pitch it for the stupid current reader -- you can't
even change the font size for heavens sake.
I have been looking for an ereader and haven't found the perfect one to satisfy me yet since I want to
be able to download library books as well as buy new books. Also want it to read academic journal
articles without it messing up the formatting. I have already purchased two ereaders and ended
up taking them back. The Sony drove me crazy because of the screen redraw and the incredibly long
time it took to turn pages -- I read pretty fast and that was unacceptable in keeping a reading flow going.
I got the Libre by Alurtek and that did read the epub DRM but the formatting was terrible with line breaks in
all the wrong places. Also it kept forgetting how to open a DRM and I had to keep going back and resetting
it. It stopped working completely after 2 weeks so I took it back. However, it did a fast page turn.
I think I probably will spring for a android tablet (been looking at the velocity micro ones and they look pretty
neat and a good price) but will still have the problem of not being able to read the adobe drm library books.

20. Re: ADE in Android?Sicilygirl Aug 19, 2010 2:02 PM (in response to bookskt)
I'm amazed to read your post! I have the same problems and reading needs apparently. I've been downloading books from my local library for years, starting with Adobe 5, then 6. I had/have a Palm Treo that I used. Once Adobe stopped ebooks and went to ADE I was stuck downloading Mobipocket ebooks. And you're right, there isn't nearly the selection of books available in this format. I'm dismayed with the inability and lack of awareness towards the needs of consumers of libraries. More and more people are relying on digital books by choice and no one wants to carry a plethora of devices for all the different formats.
I recently dumped an iphone in favor of the HTC Evo and among the top reason was that Overdrive Media, the overseer and facilitator of ebooks for libraries released a news post that they were making available epub books for mobile devices, androids to be the first to get released. Further communication with Overdrive, via email, disclosed that, though they couldn't tell when, it was eminent. This was in mid May, 2010. For those of us patiently waiting for over 2 years now, each day seems like a lifetime.
I too tried the Sony reader and couldn't deal with the screen redraws! I've returned 2 of them, and found the same on all readers I've tested so far, leaving me back with the Palm Treo I'd like to retire my Treo and start using my Evo!
21. Re: ADE in Android?jitenderADE Sep 8, 2010 12:07 PM (in response to amandajlee)
I recently discovered txtr, which supports epub books with ADE DRM. I say "discovered", but really I mean "noticed it on the list of supported devices/apps and gave it a try." Getting the books onto an android device is a little bit clunky, but once there, the books are readable.
To get the app/phone ready:
- search for txtr in the market and install
- start the app, go to the settings screen, and enter your adobe account details
- also on the settings screen, select 'Sign up for free' to create a txtr account
- close the app
To transfer books to the device:
- plug the device into the computer with ADE
- the device should now be recognized in ADE as a result of init step 2 above
- use ADE to transfer the book(s) to the device, necessary to get the license onto the device
- in a file browser, go to the Digital Editions folder and delete the book's epub file (txtr won't be able to find it)
- safely disconnect the device from your computer
- in a web browser, log in at www.txtr.com and upload the book(s) from wherever ADE put them on the computer (it's 'My Documents' for me)
- now, finally, on the android device, open txtr, go to the 'archive' tab, select the collection where you uploaded the book(s)
- download the book(s)
Like I said, getting books onto the phone along with a usable license is a pain. It would be nice if txtr could just find them in the 'Digital Editions' folder, since then you wouldn't need a txtr.com account or the extra upload/download steps. Still, this is the only method I've found that actually works for reading library books on my phone, and once you know the method, it's not that big a deal.
22. Re: ADE on Android via Aldiko (next version)BabloopBlaboo Sep 8, 2010 4:52 PM (in response to amandajlee)
Just wanted to share some info about Aldiko.
I received confirmation from Aldiko's support team that the next Android version (of Aldiko) will have support for ADE!
I quote: "This version of Aldiko app doesn't support Adobe DRM, the next version will support it and it will be released soon."
Aldiko is listed on Adobe's "Digital Editions Supported Devices" page (http://blogs.adobe.com/digitalpublishing/supported-devices).
I've read and seen a lot of good things about Aldiko, so this is very promising.

Hi Friends,
Is it possible to use Adobe RMSDK on android ?
I want to develop android based reader to read DRM protected pdfs.
Please help me.
25. Re: ADE in Android?Jim Lester Sep 10, 2010 9:24 AM (in response to SLSCorp)
Yes it is possible to use RMSDK on Android, both on purpose built devices (Nook, Entourage Edge, Spring Design Alex, etc...), as well as for general purpose apps submitted to the Marketplace (Aldiko was already mentioned on this thread).
For more information on the RMSDK see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/readermobile/ (there are subsequent contact links on that page)

Never mind. I mounted it as a drive and it recognized it.
27. Re: ADE in Android?Sicilygirl Sep 15, 2010 12:47 PM (in response to Rational_Egoist)
Sorry but I haven't tried anything else yet because everything I've read on
Adobe's site indicates the software isn't ready yet. I download from the
library so I'm most interested in the software that will allow me to
download from there. I'm assured it will be happening soon??? Hopefully by
end of year.
28. Re: ADE in Android?bookskt Sep 15, 2010 1:21 PM (in response to jitenderADE)
I was very excited to hear about TXTR. I downloaded it to my Android, synchronized it with my main Adobe account through my laptop ADE. I then downloaded files from the library. My ADE on my laptop easily recognized my phone library and listed my 'droid' as a device. I then dragged and dropped the files over to my phone. When I click on a file, it asks me which of several programs should I use to open the file -- and I choose TXTR. Then it says "unable to read document'. I also can find no way of opening the file from within the TXTR. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Also was a little confusing when setting up because it asked a bunch of questions that I wasn't able to answer and it wanted an address and a credit card number -- but only gave me the option of 'Germany' as the country name.
29. Re: ADE in Android?jitenderADE Sep 18, 2010 12:06 PM (in response to bookskt)
Did you follow all of the directions in my post about txtr? My post points out that you won't be able to read the epub file that was transfered to the phone by ADE. You need to transfer the book in order to get the license onto the phone, but after that, the epub file itself is useless for txtr. Instead, you have to create an account at txtr.com and upload the epub from your computer running ADE to the txtr web site. After that, you can download the book from within txtr on your phone so that it can be read.
If you use the 'sign up for free account' option from the txtr settings menu, it does not ask for either an address or a credit card, so you may need to read my previous directions more carefully. If you are having trouble with one or more of the steps in my origin post, tell us which one and we might be able to help.

31. Re: ADE in Android?bookskt Sep 20, 2010 8:10 PM (in response to jitenderADE)
I found that I was doing some things wrong (I was using the wrong site for TXTR, for instance)
but redid everything based on the step-by-step email by jitender.
However, once I got the book transferred to my phone through ADE and then independently
uploaded to the site and then downloaded to my phone, it still would
not work if it is from the library . However, I have made progress because it will read other
DRM books that I have purchased and it will read plain text books which I have uploaded.
I put in an order for the Velocity Cruz which is 7-inch screen Android ereader. It arrives
later this week so I will give an update on how it works. It has Android 2.1 (although my phone
now has 2.2). It appears that they have an independent android market and not the same one
as my phone uses.
32. Re: ADE in Android?mwlieu Oct 1, 2010 8:26 PM (in response to jitenderADE)
Thanks tons for getting me started with TXTR. I just thought I would add my slightly different experience in successfully transferring an ePUB from the library onto my phone (in this case, a Motorola Droid).
I started off the same way. I set up my TXTR account online and uploaded the ePUB file to TXTR. I also set up the TXTR app on my phone with my ADE account info. Now here's where things are a little different.
1. I downloaded the file onto my phone using TXTR. Once downloaded, DO NOT click "Read".
2. I connected my phone to my computer and activated it as a USB drive.
3. I opened Adobe Digital Editions and it recognized my phone as a device (for some reason it identified it as a Nook - maybe because I downloaded the app).
4. I clicked on my device in ADE to make sure my ePUB showed up as being on my device. This seems to be the only thing needed to activate permissions. I checked the item info, and the file ADE finds is located in the TXTR folder on my phone.
5. I then disconnected my phone as a USB device.
6. I loaded TXTR, found my book, and only then clicked "Read."
I don't know if this works for everyone, but I couldn't transfer the book to my device any other way. BTW - if you click "Read" before connecting to the computer and allowing ADE to find the book on your device first, something messes up (probably the DRM) and TXTR won't be able to read it. You'll have to delete the files on your phone and then redo the six steps.
33. Re: ADE in Android?amcelwee72 Oct 17, 2010 2:34 PM (in response to mwlieu)
Any luck with DRM protected PDFs? PS, your advice on ePub files works great, Thanks a million! I am currently reading a library book on my Droid! I can not get the pdf that I checked out to load however. Maybe more steps or different steps? If anyone has advice, I would greatly appreciate it.
34. Re: ADE in Android?mwlieu Oct 18, 2010 9:24 AM (in response to amcelwee72)
Nope. I haven't crossed that bridge yet. By and large, the ebooks through my public library are ePub, so I haven't had to wrestle with DRM PDF files for reading a book.

I don't know if anyone else has been having some problems, but I found that if I connected my phone via USB to transfer books I have problems both transferring and/or opening the book.
This process worked for me!
On Phone:
- Install txtr to my phone
- Open txtr - in settings set up txtr user account and logon to Adobe Account using same email & passwords as I have in my Computer's Adobe Digital Editions
- Connect to PC via USB and enter adobe credentials to activate
DISCONNECT phone from computer!
On PC:
- Download library book to Adobe Digital Editions on computer.
- Logon to online txtr account, using same id and password as on phone, upload the book from my PC.
On Phone:
Open txtr, Select the Archive field, Inbox and download the books from txtr online, read!
On Samsung Fascinate...

38. Re: ADE in Android?dlcullen Nov 11, 2010 6:21 PM (in response to npcohen)
This is what I have done to read library books:
Make sure both Adobe Digital Editions and txtr account have same Adobe
Account info as far as email and password
Rent library book, download to PC (at this point you should be able to
read the book on your PC)
Logon to txtr account on your PC, UPLOAD the book from your PC by
browsing to where book downloaded to
Open txtr on your phone, in the Archive section select Inbox, you
should see your library book listed, select it to download, then you
should be able to read.
I didn't have any luck transferring books from PC to phone via ADE by
USB connection!

Craigslist Continues To Be A Legal Bully When It Comes To Aggregators
from the disappointing dept
But the one thing that the company has done for years that still really strikes me as odd is how they lawyer up and go after others aggressively at times. There are a few areas where they do this, but the least defensible to me is when they go after sites that aggregate their listings and point people back to them. We first noted this more than six years ago, when Craigslist threatened a site for creating a universal search. Craigslist, itself, only let you search within a certain location, rather than globally. And because someone else did it, Craigslist pressured them to shut it down. It looks like that's still happening.
timlash points us to the news that the site Jaxed recently received a cease & desist and shut down its links to Craigslist's listings. The C&D apparently claimed that listing Craigslist results in its aggregated search results was a "misuse" of Craigslist, but I don't quite see how. I know that Craigslist hates anyone scraping their site, and claims that it uses up bandwidth and resources, but there are technical means to block such things, rather than breaking out the lawyers with dubious theories about how linking to a site is misuse of that site...

5 of the best iPad 3 concepts – by unknown artist
Having cradled the sleek lines of the iPad 2, we're not sure this chunky iPad 3 would be welcomed with open arms. But we reckon we could overlook its girthier frame in exchange for the finger-friendly Mac-like experience provided by merging iOS and OS X.
Of course, in putting OS X on the iPad, Apple would run the risk of making the same damaging mistake Microsoft made in putting a desktop OS onto a tablet. Is it likely we'll see it on March 7? Not a chance in hell. Do we still want one? Of course we do.
5 of the best iPad 3 concepts – by unknown artist
If you spot an iPad 3 rumour story on your web travels, it's likely to be accompanied by this rather delectable – and incredibly far-fetched – iPad 3 concept image.
Its anonymous creator certainly had their head in the clouds when dreaming up the iPad 3's spec list, complete with a 3D AMOLED display, 3D apps, the purported quad-core A6 processor and a slimmer chassis minus the home button.
We'd be surprised if Apple killed off the iPad's bezel for an edge-to-edge 3D display, but there's no denying this image is pretty drool-inducing, isn't it?
5 of the best iPad 3 concepts – by Guilherme Schasiepen
An iPad 3 that rocks the gorgeously high-end glass and stainless steel frame of the iPhone 4 and 4S is the dream of many. It's also the dream of Guilherme Schasiepen, who created this mock-up iPad 3 rocking an iPhone 4-inspired aesthetic.
Doing away with the iPad 2's aluminium backside and its slimline form factor, this iPad 3 concept's does away with the current iPad's design in favour of an oversized iPhone 4 guise.
5 of the best iPad 3 concepts – by Robert Vanhauwere
Dubbed the Ecological iPad 3, this concept design by Robert Vanhauwere puts Apple's pretty rectangle on a diet and gives it the green treatment, spawning the tag line "Faster, better and ecological". An iPad 3 offering improved performance and eco-friendly upgrades certainly isn't too far-fetched an idea.
Its wafer-thin physique might be a little harder to achieve, though, if the iPad 3 is going to get a beefed-up processor, improved cameras and a super-sharp Retina Display. iPad 6, perhaps?
5 of the best iPad 3 concepts – by Roman Vladimir
A glossy plasticky finish, a touch of class and curvaceous edges come together in this highly desirable iPad 3 concept. Other than giving the impression it feeds off fingerprints and doubles up as a mirror, it rocks an edge-to-edge display with a glossy finish, hinting at the hotly-anticipated Retina Display.
With the iPad 3 launch edging ever so closely to its purported March 7 release date, the rumour mill is in serious overdrive. We have all the iPad 3 gossip you need to feed your Apple addiction with our extensive rumour round-up. Check it out.

What Research Says to the Educator, Part Two: Environmental Education and the Affective Domain
Louis A. Iozzi
The Journal of Environmental Education v. 20 n. 4, p. 6-13
This article from the Journal of Environmental Education provides six recommendations for effective environmental education. The recommendations are as follows: infuse environmental education with an emphasis on the affective domain in all grade levels, use activities which help students understand their own environmental values and illustrate how to improve them, help students develop moral maturity as it relates to environmental problem-solving, include outdoor experiences as much as possible, to use inquiry methods to directly involve students in investigating real environmental problems, and provide environmental education across all subsets of socio-economic status, gender, age or place of residence. Each of these recommendations includes further details about how it can be accomplished in the classroom.

Department of Revenue News Release
April 11, 2011Local Business Named as New Agent for Marble Hill License Office; New Location Also Planned
JEFFERSON CITY - Bollinger County Abstract & Title Co., Inc. will be the new agent for the Marble Hill Motor Vehicle and License Office. The winning proposal was chosen as part of a competitive bidding process used for all of Missouri's local license offices.
The winning bid was one of five submitted for the office. Bollinger County Abstract & Title was founded in 1909, and its president, Donnia Besher, has been associated with the company since the mid-1990s.
The Marble Hill License Office will be moving to a new location. The office will be located at 101 Gilmore St.
The management contract for the office became open in February when the state canceled the contract with the previous office agent.
The opening day and any changes in office hours or other operations of the license office will be announced by the new agent.
According to figures from Fiscal Year 2010, there were an estimated 19,869 transactions conducted at the Marble Hill office, and it generated about $66,962 in agent processing fees.
Bidders have the option of returning part of the office revenues to the state. The company's winning bid included a 2 percent ($1,339) return to state. About $1 million is estimated to be returned to the state during the first contract year from all 183 local license offices.
Although the Missouri Department of Revenue implemented the new bidding system in January of 2009 after being authorized to do so by Gov. Jay Nixon, it didn't become part of state law until legislation was signed by the Governor in the summer of 2009. The new law was overwhelmingly approved by both Republican and Democratic members of the Missouri Legislature.
Alana M. Barragán-Scott, director of the Missouri Department of Revenue, said she was glad the new office will be opening soon.
"I'm pleased that the new agent has been selected, and I'm confident that the office will provide excellent service to the citizens in the Bollinger County area," she said.
During the interim period before the new Marble Hill License Office opens, there are several other area license offices where Bollinger County customers can go to conduct transactions. The offices, their addresses, phone numbers, and operating hours are:
Cape Girardeau - 112 S. Spanish St., (573) 335-3659, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Last Saturday of the month, 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
Chaffee - 129 S. Main St., (573) 887-3485, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; Last Saturday of the month, 8:30 a.m. to noon.
Fredericktown - 135 W. Main St., (573) 783-7772, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Last Friday of the month, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Last Saturday of the month, 9 a.m. to noon.
Jackson - 125 E. Main St., (573) 243-5406, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Last Saturday of the month, 8:30 a.m. to noon.
Perryville - 624-B N. Old St. Mary's Rd., (573) 547-6100, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Last Saturday of the month, 8 a.m. to noon.
A list of all license offices is available at http://dor.mo.gov/offloc/.
All local license offices provide services that are overseen by the Department of Revenue, but each office is operated by an independent agent.

A Students for a Free Economy Introductory Video (Part 2)
Economic Freedom Matters
Following on the heels of an award-winning first installment, Students for a Free Economy returns with "Economic Freedom Matters," the second in a series of introductory videos.
Economic freedom matters.
Economic freedom may not sound relevant to everyday life, but economics involves an essential part of our social life: our exchange of goods and services with others. Freedom in this area means allowing everyone to make his or her own decisions, so long as those decisions don't threaten the lives, property or liberty of others.
Economic freedom brings energy and meaning to human life. Restraints on economic freedom can be damaging. It's found that the economically freest countries are not only wealthier, with more dynamic economies, but also have lower unemployment, greater political liberty, higher life expectancies and fewer children in the labor force.
No country has a perfectly free economy, and even the most free — Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, Switzerland, the United States and Ireland — still impose numerous controls on individuals' decisions. But these economies, though not fully free, demonstrate the power of even partially unfettered cooperation and exchange.

Arnold Palmer Awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor September 12 2012
The Great Arnold Palmer
The Great Arnold Palmer joined the company of elite Americans like George Washington and Neil Armstrong, when he was honored for his far-reaching lifetime contributions on Wednesday by being awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor.
The Speaker of the House John Boehner, praised Arnold during the ceremony in the Rotunda of the Capitol building, he said;"He didn't set out to change the game. But he did. Arnold Palmer democratized golf. And made us think that we too could go out and play, and made us believe we could do anything really. All we had to do was go out and try. You've struck our hearts and our minds, and today your government and fellow citizens are striking the Golf Medal for you." Arnold has become the sixth athlete to be honored with the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest honor that can be bestowed upon any living citizen, following Roberto Clemente of the Pittsburgh Pirates, track and field Olympic champion Jesse Owens, Brooklyn Dodger pioneer Jackie Robinson, boxing legend Joe Louis and of course fellow golfer Byron Nelson. Arnold mentioned Byron and the respect golfers have for each other in his acceptance speech; "It's interesting that two of the six recipients of the honor have been golfers. I like to truly believe that golfers promote some sort of human value that symbolizes so many Americans, such as characteristics of honesty, hard work, dedication, responsibility, and respect for the other guy. I hope I can thank you properly and tell you how much it means to me to be here to accept this award. I'm very humbled, thank you very much." Jack Nicklaus, a fellow competitor on the Golf course as well as in business, honored his close friend, with a heartfelt speech built around the theme of the Arnold Palmer I'll never forget. Jack reiterated the story about the first time he watched Arnold hit a ball, at age 14. He was standing and watching in awe at Sylvania C.C. outside Toledo, Ohio as Arnold hit piercing long irons into the rain, on the driving range before the 1954 Ohio Amateur Championship, which Arnold went on to win. Jack said; " Arnold embodied the hard-working spirit of America, and he played a game we all could try to be good at." Among Arnold's numerous charitable contributions include the Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, the Arnold Palmer Prostate Center in California and Arnie's Army. Congratulations Arnold, and I hope you have tried the putter I sent you.
