Southern Tier Internet uses UniFi™ Products for Zero Handoff Seamless Roaming technology.
Perfect for permanent or temporary indoor/outdoor hotspots.
Zero Handoff Roaming enables seamless roaming by wireless clients such as laptops, iPads, smartphones and other wireless devices.
Zero Handoff Roaming can work with any client and requires no special software, no drivers, and no interaction from the client device.
With Zero Handoff Roaming, multiple AP's (access points) act as an AP cluster and appear as a single AP. A wireless client detects only one AP, so it seamlessly maintains its connection as it switches to the nearest AP. There is no need for the client to re-negotiate; instead, any negotiation is offloaded to the APs. They decide which AP should take over the live connection next.
Case Study: Hangout Music Festival
The deployment included the following:
20 UniFi AP-PRO Access Points
20 UniFi AP Outdoor Access Points
10 airRouterTM devices
2 airFiber devices
The UniFi 3.1 Controller software made it easy to deploy and manage multiple sites. Each site supported multiple groups; for example, the Stage 4 site supported its production crew, management team, and bands. Some groups had festival-wide Wi-Fi; any band member could roam across the entire festival and still use the same artist Wi-Fi network.
UniFi products supported multiple wireless networks over large areas. airFiber was used as a backhaul link to send traffic from the festival site to the closest fiber ring. Installation of the airFiber connection took only 20 minutes.
The UniFi network reliably delivered fast Wi-Fi coverage to support the festival's network activities, which ranged from VoIP to credit card transactions to mapping software:
8-10 Mbps, synchronous performance for each group on the network
2-3 Mbps to each user

Things have been a little quiet on the Jet Set front, non?
I'm happy/pleased/sad/exhausted to admit that life is getting the better of me at the moment. Pulling a double shift isn't the easiest thing in the world. Of course I'm not doing a double shift on the factory line or anything, but I do have a shift at work and then one at home.
No matter how Other Half tries to keep the house and the kids in order, he's just not me. For instance, I know when laundry needs to be done (when there is a pile of it.) I know when the kitchen floor needs to be mopped (when you walk on it and it's alternately sticky and crunchy.) I know what's for dinner (because I'm making it.) These are difficult concepts!
But enough about the Working Mom Blues.
I want to take this moment to rub something in your face. RUB IT!
He's been sleeping through the night for three weeks. That's right, at the ripe age of two months and three weeks it's not uncommon for him to sleep from eleven pm until seven am. Some days he makes it midnight to eight, or one am until nine. Oh ho ho!
In your FACE!
Why am I twisting the screws? Because I know my next kid will be a horrible sleeper and I just need to revel in the one that's a good sleeper for a little while.
Can you dig?
Meanwhile, I have a tip for you. Have you ever heard that you can sprinkle in baby powder into your hair if it's too greasy and it will absorb the grease, allowing you another day without shampooing your hair? Well, I heard that. I've also heard that you can do the same thing with oatmeal, but that seems like a waste: I love to eat oatmeal but not baby powder.
Why do I still have to find tricks to cover up my third day without clean hair when the baby is sleeping through the night? The answer lies somewhere between: I am too tired to shower at night after I've cleaned up, and I don't have the necessary time in the morning to straighten it (because when it is this long, my hair in its natural curly state looks ridiculously like it would be more at home on stage with Def Leppard circa 1987, pour some sugar.)
That's a long way of saying that I tried the baby powder this morning—what did I have to lose? If I didn't use the powder I'd have to wash my hair and be late. If I did use the powder and it didn't work, I'd have to wash my hair and be late. I tentatively shook the bottle's contents onto the roots of my raven-lite locks and watched them turn a muddy gray. I combed and shook the powder out. It worked! The Jet Set gives thumbs up to baby powder on the scalp.
Now I just need a way of shaking baby powder all over my kitchen to degrease that pit too.

San Juan Basin, Northwestern New Mexico, USA
Altela partnered with a large natural gas exploration and production company in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico. The produced water and frac flow-back water produced at several of its wells was able to be piped to the local publicly owned treatment works (POTW) for treatment and eventual discharge to a local river. Following recent EPA regulatory changes, the POTW was no longer able to accept these high TDS waste brine fluids. Following desalination of the produced and frac flow-back waste fluids by the AltelaRain® System, the clean water met the EPA requirements for acceptance by the POTW thereby saving the customer further transportation and related disposal costs. In addition, the treated, clean water that was discharged to the POTW and then into the local river provided valuable in-stream flows and increased environmental sustainability to the river.

Sustainable Centre: ACUPCC Action Plan
Climate Action Plan, 2009The Centre College Climate Action Plan is availble in three formats:
(a) The complete document (PDF)
(b) The narrative portion pages 0-26 (PDF)
(c) The appendices and references, pages 27-45 (PDF)
In early 2007, Centre President John A. Roush became a charter signatory of the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC). Today, Centre is among nearly 700 institutions to have signed the pledge. By making this public commitment, Centre has agreed to:
- • Complete a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory.
- • Set a target date and interim milestones for becoming climate neutral.
- • Take immediate steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
- • Integrate sustainability into the curriculum and educational experience.
- • Make the action plan, inventory and progress reports publicly available.
In May 2007, following the signing of the commitment, an advisory committee made up of Centre professors, staff members, and students was formed to carry out these goals. The advisory committee serves to inform the campus about important sustainability questions, to identify opportunities to reduce environmental impact, and ultimately, to bring Centre College to a position of climate neutrality by the year 2040.
Tangible goals
The commitment early on calls for participating schools to "create institutional structure to guide development and implementation of the plan" and to initiate at least two immediate tangible actions. In November 2007, the committee fulfilled this ACUPCC goal by recommending (and President Roush endorsing) that Centre adopt three actions and since then a fourth has also been reached:
1. Energy conservation in all new construction: All new buildings and major renovations will be designed and built using LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) silver standards or equivalent. Certification through the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) will be pursued as appropriate.
2. E.P.A. Energy Star© purchasing policy: Energy consumption and life cycle costs will be considered in purchases of all equipment and appliances. The intention will be to purchase E.P.A. Energy Star© products in all areas for which such ratings exist.
3. Promotion of waste minimization throughout campus: Specific activities will depend upon technical and economic opportunities and currently include: vigorous recycling collection program in all major buildings; participation in the RecycleMania competition; encouraging use of re-useable drink containers by providing re-useable mugs to students and price discounts in café and grill.
4. Sustainable energy sources: Centre College now supplies more than 15 percent of its electricity via sustainable sources, including the Mother Ann Lee Hydroelectric Station on the Kentucky River. Click here for more.
Greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories
In fall 2008, the first comprehensive inventory of Centre's greenhouse gases (GHG), based on fiscal year 2007-08, was completed, fulfilling another goal of the ACUPCC. This inventory, as required by the ACUPCC, is publicly available online here. The GHG inventory from 2007-08 is the data foundation upon which Centre has created its ACUPCC action plan goals. Click here for GHG Inventory for 2008, 2009, and 2010 (PDF).
In addition, the GHG inventory for the 2009 and 2010 fiscal years are also complete and available online.
Ultimate goal: Climate neutrality by 2040
In December 2009, the committee completed and submitted its action plan, fulfilling another ACUPCC goal. Under the terms of the plan, Centre has publicly committed to achieving climate neutrality by the target date of 2040, with the following timeline:
2020: Reduction of GHG emissions by 25% from 2007-08 levels
2030: Reduction of GHG emissions by 50% from 2007-08 levels
2040: Climate neutrality
Please examine the entire Climate Action Plan available in PDF format on the advisory committee's Web page by clicking here. Also available on this page are Centre's GHG inventories, minutes from committee meetings, and progress reports.

Microsoft is introducing a new Internet-based service that helps companies use data analysis to predict behavior, in a bid to gain more customers in the fast-growing field of machine learning.
The service lets users more easily build algorithms to predict purchasing patterns, electricity usage and more. The work and results can be hosted on the Web through Microsoft's Azure cloud offering. The new product, dubbed Azure Machine Learning, has been in a trial period for about a year and now has about 100 customers testing it, said General Manager Eron Kelly.
Microsoft, under new CEO Satya Nadella, is trying to boost its focus on cloud software as more companies gravitate to hosting data and other operations on the Web. Nadella ran the cloud business before becoming CEO in February. The Redmond, Washington-based software maker wants to bolster usage of Azure as it tries to narrow the gap with market leader Amazon.com Inc.'s Web Services business.
Machine learning, which is an artificial intelligence field that involves constructing systems that automatically analyze and learn from data, has been on the rise. Even as companies collect more information, the challenge has been how to extract value from it. As a result, the market for analysis software is growing about 18 percent a year and will reach $6.5 billion by 2019, according to Transparency Market Research.
"One of the challenges is as you create more data -- data in and itself isn't all that valuable," Kelly said. "It's the insights you can create from it, and as the datasets get larger, it becomes harder to analyze."
Microsoft said its new product can be used by full-fledged data scientists to speed up their work, as well as by analysts who aren't trained in the mathematical underpinnings of the field.
Microsoft's own retail stores are using the software to predict fraud, while another unnamed retailer is analyzing past customer purchases to decide future inventory, said Kelly. Carnegie Mellon University is tracking weather patterns and electricity usage in its buildings and has told Microsoft the system will enable them to save 30 percent on energy, he said.
Microsoft will offer a public preview of the service, which was code-named Project Passau, in July. It's the product of work from the company's research unit and its data platform team, helmed by Joseph Sirosh, a machine-leaning executive who Microsoft hired from Amazon in July 2013.
"Soon machine learning will help to drastically reduce wait times in emergency rooms, predict disease outbreaks and predict and prevent crime," Sirosh wrote in a blog post. "To realize that future we need to make machine learning more accessible."

Christian Heroin Treatment
A lifelong commitment to Jesus might help some Christians from getting caught up in a drug addiction, but that doesn't mean belief in Jesus automatically keeps you from a substance like heroin. The Bible is very clear that all people have sinned and that every Christian makes mistakes. For some Christians – new believers and those with lifelong faith – drugs might be the mistake they fell into.
Heroin is a commonly abused drug among those who are experimenting with illicit substances, but you could also fall into heroin dependence after being medically treated with prescription opiates such as oxycodone or morphine. If your body becomes physically dependent on these, it's a surprisingly small number of steps before you find yourself taking risks to obtain any substance that feeds your needs and staves off withdrawals.
While faith might not always keep you from addiction, it can be a valuable part of recovery. At Road to Freedom, we believe Christian heroin treatment is critical to success. If you're struggling with heroin use, call us today. Compassionate, Christian counselors are waiting to answer your call at (844) 402-3605. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every day of the year to provide you with information about rehab that combines the best of Christian counseling, behavioral therapy and medical detox.
What is Heroin?
Heroin is an illegal substance that is synthesized from morphine, and it usually looks like either a brown or white powder. Drug dealers on the black market sometimes cut the substance with other white powders so they can make more money when selling it. Both the heroin and any powder used to cut it can be extremely dangerous to your health.
Heroin is extremely addicting. Approximately 23 percent of people who use heroin, even in a recreational manner, become dependent on it. People can snort, inject or smoke heroin, and all three methods deliver the drug to the brain quickly, increasing the high and the chance of becoming physically dependent. In the brain, heroin converts back to morphine and begins acting on opioid receptors. The changes heroin causes in the brain are responsible for the feelings of euphoria associated with the high, but they can also change certain body functions, including those that regulate critical processes such as breathing and blood flow.
Heroin Withdrawal Symptoms
One of the reasons heroin addiction is so hard to beat is because of the heroin withdrawal symptoms. Withdrawal occurs because your body is physically dependent on a substance – it's been tricked into thinking that it needs that substance to function. You can have withdrawal symptoms if you stop introducing any number of substances into your body; for example, if you stop drinking caffeinated beverages you might experience headaches. People who stop sugar all of a sudden often have digestive issues and other symptoms.
Heroin withdrawal symptoms are some of the worst you can experience, and the severity depends on how long you've taken the drug and how much you use on a regular basis. Withdrawal symptoms usually start within a few hours to a day of stopping drug use, and they can continue for a week or more, making someone extremely uncomfortable and often resulting in them turning to heroin again for relief.
Common withdrawal symptoms of heroin include:
- Abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting
- Extreme sweating
- Shaking
- Agitation, irritability, anxiety and paranoia
- Nervousness
- Depression and even suicidal thoughts
- Intense drug cravings
- Muscle spasms
The Effects of Heroin on Your Body and Life
Heroin and other drugs are extremely hard on your body, and use of these drugs can result in long-term health concerns including heart problems. The impact of heroin on your life doesn't just stop at your health – heroin can bring death to all aspects of your life, including your relationships and career.
Some Christians believe a season of drug addiction is "God's will" for their life; they believe they are being punished for something, prepared for something or being taught a lesson. But James tells us that we shouldn't say '"I am being tempted by God," for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one."
God loves you, and he doesn't want you to suffer. He wants you to have life – and to have it abundantly. Jesus himself tells us this. We are not blessed by a trial such as drug addiction, but we can be blessed if we seek God despite addiction or affliction. James also tells us that we lure and entice ourselves by our own desire, and "desire, when it has conceived, gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death." (James 1:15)
Don't stick with your desire for heroin above your desire for Christ and for a drug-free life. Seeking heroin is seeking death, but seeking sobriety and Christ is seeking life. We can help you take those first steps away from heroin and toward sobriety. Call us right now at (844) 402-3605. We are here 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. There is never a wrong time to ask for help with your addiction.
Getting Help Via a Christian Heroin Treatment Center
At Road to Freedom, we never pretend that to recovery is easy. We know it might be one of the hardest things you ever do. But we want you to know that you aren't alone. Jesus stands with you, walking every step of the way alongside you, and he is evident also in the Christian counselors and medical professionals who help with your treatment.
Identifying the root causes of heroin use
We usually recommend combining medical detox with spirituall and Biblically-based Christian therapy. Medical detox helps you overcome the first few days or weeks of heroin withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms can be hard to endure, but our medical team is here to keep you as safe and comfortable as possible during this process. God doesn't want you to suffer and neither do we.
As our medical staff help you deal with withdrawal, our Christian counselors and pastoral support help you begin to identify root causes for your drug use. Figuring out why you started using drugs in the first place helps you address the problems masked by heroin abuse and it lays the foundation for creating healthier coping mechanisms.
Education and skill-building during rehab
Throughout an inpatient stay in our Christian heroin treatment center, you'll work with counselors and pastors to build new skills and develop an understanding of the addiction cycle. Some treatment options in our facility include:
- Group and individual therapy to help you understand triggers, coping mechanisms and how drugs impact your body. Therapy helps you work through these issues so you are better equipped to guard your sobriety when you return to regular life.
- Pastoral counseling and Bible study to help you understand Christ's role in your life and help you develop your relationship with Jesus.
- Educational opportunities, including help with nutrition and exercise, career advice and retraining, and family therapy to better prepare your support system.
- Legal liaison services to assist with communication and other matters related to court dates associated with previous drug activity.
Building a Strong Aftercare Foundation
"Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul." 1 Peter 2:11
This verse from 1 Peter echoes the sentiments of family members who love someone who is addicted to drugs. It might even echo your own sentiments to yourself – "Why can't you abstain, knowing these drugs wage war on your entire life?"
Unfortunately, it's not always that easy, which is why strong aftercare is critical if you want to stay off heroin. At Road to Freedom, we never send you on your way with only a blessing and a prayer. We work with you to develop an aftercare plan that includes group and individual counseling, NA meetings and 12-step programs and community and pastoral support.
Find out more about how fellowship and professional intervention can help you overcome heroin addiction. Call us today at (844) 402-3605. Every call is confidential and free.

Difference between Winter and Summer months
Both times of year have their negatives and positives. While the Summer offers outdoor fun and action around the pool and total nude sun bathing, more women can be found during the Winter months. Summer also means BBQ's in outdoor gardens, nude volley ball and soccer games as well as lounging around huge outdoor pools. Some clubs have indoor pools and full service, sit down restaurants that are not affected by the weather.
Germany gets some snow during the Winter, which also explains some of the reasons for less talent during the Summer. Women prefer to spend off time during the best weather of the year, thus make plans to go home or visit family during the Summer months. Clubs tend to be more crowded during the Summer due to the tourist season being in full swing. Airfares are lower in the Winter months when tourist traffic is highest in Europe.

What is e-Challan?
e-Challan Traffic Fine Rates
A road user who has been issued e-Challan can request for a photographic evidence of the traffic violation from Hyderabad or Cyberabad Traffic Police. Since the system and technology adopted by the traffic police is evolving, the facility to view these traffic violation images online is only available for e-challans generated after 1-May-2013. If you have a pending e-challan which has been issued before 1-May-2013 then you have to visit the traffic police station which is mentioned in the e-challan or as mentioned against your e-challan to check the photo proof of the violation.
While the above two reasons are the main reasons because of which a road user is unable to receive e-challan others do not pay them on time. Hyderabad Traffic Police has initiated legal action by approaching the court to identify repeat violators who do not pay traffic fines even after repeated reminders. Many such violators have been prosecuted and have been fined even more by the court. You can find more information at this link. Some repeat traffic offenders have also been jailed.
Traffic Challan User Charges
You will find another charge which is added to your total amount above. This is User or Service Charge which the Traffic Police applies to every e-Challan and is irrespective of the Traffic Rule disobeyed by a motorist. You can find further information on the User charges breakup here.

Join me today to help reach our goal to rescue and restore more girls in celebration of International Day of the Girl!

He has much better plans for them, and we, as His abassadors are shining His light for all to see - today and every day - into the darkest corners we can find!
World leaders agree, a host of evils can be demolished by equipping girls. Everything from slavery to poverty to child marriage are best addressed by helping girls to live free and empowered.. That's why the UN has named October 11, International Day of the Girl.
"Hope Shines" is the She Is Safe initiative for this special day to let the world know that all of our friends agree in freeing and equipping girls as we shine the light of God's love into the darkness. And on the evening of Oct. 11, we want to brighten the night by shining our lights, and gathering for prayer. We want to see how many we an possibly free and equip from this one shining night. You can shine where you are!
She Is Safe has been shining the light of hope and freedom for abused and exploited women and girls for over 10 years. Every year we seek out pockets of darkness where we can help light the way to a whole new life.
It takes on average about $365 to free and equip one woman or girl in our yearlong effort of prevention, rescue and restoration.

Michelin tyres is playing a key role in the defining the overall performance of the new Peugeot 308, for which it is supplying two different tyres as original equipment.
The Michelin tyres will offer strategic support to the overall performance of the new vehicle, which makes its public debut at the IAA motor show in Frankfurt, in terms of energy efficiency, dynamic features and weight reduction.
The updated model will be available with two different Michelin tyres as original equipment; models delivered with 15 and 16-inch rims will be fitted with the Energy Saver +, while the Pilot Sport 3 will be mounted on 17 and 18-inch rim versions.
The co-development project carried out by Michelin and PSA Peugeot Citroën engineers for the new Peugeot 308 was guided by a commitment to providing drivers of the new model with tyres that enabled them to get the most out of their car.
Mike Bundick, Original Equipment Marketing Director for Michelin, commented: "The close-knit strategic partnership between Michelin and PSA Peugeot Citroën teams is readily apparent today in the new Peugeot 308. The 15 and 16-inch MICHELIN Energy Saver + tyres and the 17 and 18-inch MICHELIN Pilot Sport 3 tyres support the new model's performance in terms of road holding and steering precision. As a result, they play a significant role in improving its energy efficiency while delivering outstanding safety and total mileage. Taken as a whole, this is the result of the MICHELIN Total Performance strategy."
Laurent Cléro, Technical Account Manager in charge of the co-development of Michelin tyres for the new 308, added: "The highly ambitious specifications submitted by PSA Peugeot Citroën for the new 308 focused on three areas of performance. The first was the importance of the vehicle's dynamic features through its handling, steering precision and driving enjoyment. The second covered the energy efficiency required by the tyre to adjust to the vehicle's lower weight and to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The last key aspect was safety, as every effort was made to reduce vehicle braking distances on wet surfaces while maintaining tyre performance in other areas, especially longevity. For the Peugeot 308, the new MICHELIN Energy Saver+ tyre shortens braking distances on wet surfaces by 3 meters, reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 3 grams per kilometer and delivers remarkable handling without sacrificing tyre longevity."
Denna Bowman, Head Office

When you're out in nature, you need to make sure that you've got the right gear with you at all times. This can make a really difference between a good and bad trip, but you also need to consider the fact that you really can't carry million tools with you. You need to find a multi tool that is good enough for several things. Plus a trustworthy pen is just as important, you'll never know when important information arises. Check out Gear Hungry for this. They have a fantastic list to suit all budgets.
Now, before you just pick one tool, you really ought to go through these 4 steps in order to make sure that you've got the best one out there. The first thing to consider is the manufacturer that ought to be good, and that you've gotten something that works for you. But, these aren't actually the steps, this is just a general guideline, and when it comes to the steps, we'll get right on them.
Step 1 – How Would You Carry It?
You have to make sure that the multi tool that you've selected to carry with you to your trips does several things at once, and that it can be carried with you at all time. This means that the tool cannot weigh 2 pounds and be over 3 feet in length. You can choose from several tools in order to fulfill this need, and these tools include:
-The Keychain Tools which are small and really handy. You can just carry them on your keychain that you always take with you. Even though you'll have to sacrifice some tool abilities, you'll get some portability.
– The Pocket Multi Tools are a bit heavier and bigger, but can still fit your pocket, not to mention your backpack or purse. They'll offer you a lot in the sense of capability. These include pliers and other tools that are manageable in terms of size and that offer great capability and strength.
– The Belt Multi Tools are a bit more complex (shown below). There is a lot more of them, and they include real tools, wire cutters, bigger pliers, etc. Most can fit into the pockets, but are usually found on the belt.
– The One-Piece Multi Tools are slim, flat tools made of one piece of metal. They can be fitted wherever you need them, on your belt, bag, bike, etc. They are extremely handy, but are limited in terms of application due to the fact that they're just one piece of metal. You can use them as a flat screwdriver, a box wrench, a scrapper tool, and that is it.
Step 2 – What Do You Need?
This is what we have mentioned that the tool needs to be something that works for you. Only you know what some of the needs for which you're going to need the tool are, and that is why only you can choose the perfect one. These steps are just guidelines. The first thing you should do, in this regard, is finding if there is some kind of a specialized tool for your needs. If there is, than that's the tool you ought to get. If a specialized tool for your needs doesn't really exist, then try to find a smaller set of tools that could be carried around easily. Usually, this set includes a small flat driver, scissors, bottle opener, a small saw, etc.
Step 3 – Don't Trust the Marketing, and Find a Quality Product
In order to achieve this, you need to differentiate bad products from the good ones. The best way to do this is to avoid anything with a flashlight on it, because it's always good to have a flashlight on its own, and not a part of a tool. Also, never buy stuff from a bad source made by an unknown company. GearHungry.com have a great 'best' article on Multi-tools . Get something made by a respected and a well-known firm. Try not to buy any knock-offs, because these things will break in no time. And finally, get a toolset without any additional features or functions, because they just complicate the tool and can only drive the product to break down a lot quicker.
Step 4 – Buy the Multi Tool
There is nothing left for you now buy to use the things you've learned while going through these steps and buy your multi tool. We hope you'll be able to pick a good one now that is going to serve you for many years and trips to come.

UPDATE: Best Buy to resell LightSquared 4G service
With its planned acquisition of T-Mobile that was announced on Sunday, AT&T highlighted opportunities to bring LTE to suburban and rural areas by combining spectrum from the two companies. On Tuesday, Swedish mobile equipment giant Ericsson announced a partnership with NetAmerica Alliance, a service provider that plans to unite many small owners of spectrum in rural areas and piece together a national LTE network, offering broader coverage through roaming agreements.
However, some observers question the economic viability of networks designed to reach sparsely populated areas, particularly with traditionally expensive technologies such as satellite.
"If it was really that hot a market, the (major) carriers would have built there," said NPD Group analyst Eddie Hold.

A rumor that started buzzing around the web late yesterday, that the overhead multiplayer space combat game Subspace was shutting its doors to gamers on October 31st of this year has been gaining momentum over the last 24 hours. Despite EA's apparent lack of influence and Westwood's insistence that the rumor is a result of a technical problem, gamers are getting fired up about the possibility that their favorite stomping ground may be at threat.
Angry gamers have already put together a web-site at http://fun.gibbsnc.com/subspace/ to act as both a formal protest of server destruction and as a petition against it. While all of this seems a bit premature, gamers seem very concerned that the recent EA/Virgin shakeup will eventually cause trouble for their favorite title. Although it is possible for gamers to set up their own servers, a letter from a SubSpace player that we received earlier today notes that these player servers won't be searchable without the VIE Zones site. Another concern revolved around long-time players loosing the names and point totals that they have played so hard to earn over the past years.

– it is present in daylight and helps us to stay awake – over-exposure can cause eye
strain, eye fatigue and even sleeplessness.
HOYA BlueControl is a coating that can be applied to your glasses to help combat
these effects by neutralising a significant proportion of the blue light that is emitted
when using digital devices. This should help to provide more comfortable, relaxed
vision with enhanced natural colour perception.

For the last two decades, the band has been fighting under the flag of Latvian Pagan Metal, an extreme blend of traditional Baltic Folk music and various Metal influences ranging from Norwegian inspired Black Metal through to 80s-rooted Heavy Metal. The band's unique combination of ancient and modern influence has given them a wide appeal throughout both the Metal and Folk scenes, and has brought great variety to their song writing over the course of the seven Skyforger albums.
The first of these was unleashed from the forge in 1997. Titled 'Semigalls' Warchant', the demo tape told tales of the last free Pagan tribes of the Baltic peoples; and their struggles with Christian invaders throughout the thirteenth century. These tales of ancient tribal Latvia and its Heathen tradition were to be expanded upon in 1998 with Skyforger's first full-length album, 'Kauja pie Saules' ('The Battle of Saule'). Later, in 2000, band followed with their third release, the First World War themed album 'Latvian Riflemen'.
Skyforger signed to the German label Folter Records and soon the world saw the release of their newest Pagan Metal masterpiece, – 'Thunderforge', which was a fine return to their old themes of ancestral culture and Heathen gods. The next album in line, recorded also in 2003, was the self-released 'Sword Song', – an album of purely acoustic Latvian Folk music and a long coming tribute to their ancient forefathers' heritage. In 2005 Folter Records released re-mastered demo album 'Semigalls' Warchant' on CD format, with additional EP 'Asinslauks'.
Skyforger spent next few years working on a conceptual album about the legendary Latvian fairytale hero, Kurbads. The album, similarly entitled 'Kurbads', was published worldwide via Metal Blade Records in 2010.
Through the years, band has been busy on festival stages all over Europe, has performed also in USA and South America, and Skyforger is well known for their non-compromising live performances.
Skyforger released their new opus 'Old Prussia' on April, 2015 on Thunderforge Records. Album tells about old Baltic Prussian tribes, their mythology, life and death. Album was supported by two years heavy touring across all the Europe (Heidenfest European tour, North Winds European tour, Hellfest, Metaldays, Wave Gotik Treffen, Steelfest, Kaltenbach Open Air & many more) – in total 16 countries.
