Recovery Console iso file–you asked for it
February 19, 2012 in Windows XP by Gerry Frawley
It's been almost 10 years now, but I still get people asking for this file, a windows xp recovery console as a CD image.
It's not much use on modern computers with sata drives as it does not include the drivers for such devices, but people all over the world download this thing daily through copied links. You can google rc.iso and see links to my website from hundreds of countries.
It's just a simple windows disk with all the good stuff removed so people who received computers without installation disks can recover their computer, but is apparently it is still in high demand if the server logs are any indication.
I've gotten calls from people in New York, Pittsburg, Texas, Florida….and those are just the phone calls.
I guess they are right, once it is on the internet, it's there forever.

DRAMA CLUB: Love Around Episode 17 (2/2)
I'll be the first to admit that over the past couple of weeks I've been incredibly annoyed by the writers of Love Around. Why they found it necessary to throw in a bunch of overly tragic side characters this close to the end is still something of a mystery to me but after a little reflection, I can (almost and only very grudgingly) admit that these characters do serve a purpose; which is why I thought I'd take an even closer look at them today and get your thoughts on them as well.
1. Pei Ni
Pei Ni first appeared as a way for Zhou Zhen to take care of Liang Xiao Shu and Sound of Asia without being directly involved with either of them. Of course we all know that this act of kindness on Zhen's part was quickly overshadowed by his decision to use Pei Ni as a decoy girlfriend in his attempt to break Xiao Shu's heart. It was for this reason alone that I instantly hated Pei Ni but to be fair, it's not like she was in on the plan. In fact, she probably has no idea Zhou Zhen ever used her in this way, so I suppose I have no choice but to let that one slide. Since then, Pei Ni has been used to develop the character of a certain self-centered and childish DJ and for that, I'm glad. I've always wanted to like James but have been put off by his immaturity and incessant need to sweep his hair off his forehead. *SO ANNOYING!* Since learning the tragic story of single mom, Pei Ni and her terminally ill daughter Qian Qian, James has really started to mature; so much so, that I can now overlook his occasional hair swoop and appreciate him as a kind and caring man whose interest in Pei Ni goes much deeper than the superficial crush which it first appeared to be. For this reason alone, Pei Ni has earned a place in my book as a worthy side character and I hope things really do work out well for her and James by the end.
2. Qian Qian
Up next is Qian Qian, the terminally ill daughter of Pei Ni, whose every appearance makes you want to smile and cry, all at the same time. Qian Qian is a sweetheart, there's no doubt, but I have to be honest, her first appearance irritated me more than anything else. At the time, I could only see Qian Qian as a tragic and seemingly insignificant character, whose very existence seemed to bog down the flow of the story and add nothing more than a sad back story for Pei Ni but now I can see that she's had a much more significant role. (And no, I don't mean giving us an excuse to watch Xiao Shu and Zhen be overly cutesie together at an amusement park.) Let's face it, if it weren't for Qian Qian's near death experience in the parking lot of Zhen's hotel, James would have never had a chance to be the hero and Xiao Shu would have never gotten her memories back and we all know that it's these memories that are going to have the biggest impact on the next three episodes. What is Xiao Shu going to do, now that she knows the truth? What's going to happen to her father? Will he fess up? Will he deny it? Will he continue to screw over his family just to save face? See, we wouldn't be asking any of these questions if it hadn't been for Qian Qian, which is why she too, has earned my side character stamp of approval.
3. Pin Ying
And now we come to Pin Ying, the one character we've all been cringing over for the past two weeks as we wail, "WHY!?!" Why on earth the writers decided to bring back a most hated character and transform her into a tragically pitiful sob story is so beyond me. No matter how hard I try, I cannot bring myself to like Pin Ying, especially now that Xiao Shu is starting to believe Pin Ying and Zhen are back together. *Grrr!* Still, she does serve a purpose and though I hate to admit it, it's a rather important one, as it seems Pin Ying is the only one able to talk some sense into Zhou Zhen. Apparently once you become blind, you become incredibly insightful into the heart and mind of your ex and are therefore able to tell him things about his currently messed up love life that he refuses to hear from anyone else. *Go figure!* It's only after talking to Pin Ying that Zhen realizes leaving someone to ensure their future happiness is, in fact, totally lame. One can only hope that after a couple more talks with Pin Ying, Zhen will realize he's been a total douche these past few episodes and will go running back to Xiao Shu with the world' best apology, so we can finish this show knowing they're going to live happily ever after. It's this hope alone that allows me to tolerate Pin Ying and very grudgingly allow her to pass as an acceptable side character.
So now that I've given you my take on these overly tragic characters, I'd like to hear yours. Am I right to give them my side character seal of approval or should I have kept with my initial reaction and just written them off as useless bunk? I'd love to hear your thoughts so be sure to comment below!

Ancient and modern walking routes in South Tipperary
Ancient pilgrimage roads in South Tipperary and their modern-day benefits will be the topic of a public talk on Wednesday next, October 31, in Cahir.
Newcastle native and archaeologist Dr Louise Nugent will present a lecture on St. Declan's Way and the Rian Bó Phadraig (track of St. Patrick's cow). These medieval roads formed part of an ancient pilgrimage route linking Cashel with Ardmore in County Waterford, passing through Cahir and Ardfinnan, over the Knockmealdowns to Lismore and down to the coast.
It is said that St. Declan and St. Patrick, two men who led the conversion of Ireland to Christianity, travelled to meet one another along the route. Louise will speak about the significance of this route and the findings of her own archaeological research.
Efforts are now underway to develop and promote St Declan's Way and the Rian Bó Phadraig for walking and pilgrimage along the lines of the Camino of northern Spain. Kevin O'Donnell, a walking enthusiast, B&B owner and chairperson of the Knockmealdowns Active Group, will outline the potential benefits of the project for local tourism and the work needed to bring the route up to a proper standard.
The project is also being supported by South Tipperary Development Company.
The meeting starts at 8pm and takes place in the South Tipperary Development Company offices in Carrigeen business Park on the Clogheen Road. Admission is free. For further details contact Conor Ryan on 0877378123.

RetroArch is a multi-system emulator for Linux, Windows, Mac OS X and *BSD. It is formerly known as SSNES.
Its design and background is quite different than most other emulators as RetroArch does not implement an emulation core itself. RetroArch talks to libretro, a generic emulator core API. This means that RetroArch is core agnostic, and it does not care which emulator core is running.

TechCrunch recently had a post lamenting the fact the Barnes and Noble's new How-To site, Quamut, is being spammed by SEO guys looking for some free link juice. The B&N site wasn't adding nofollow to their external links, so it's been open-season for SEOs. (Before you get all excited, they've now changed the links to nofollow.)
To many people, that SEO spamming may look like a bad thing. I think it's the best thing that could ever happen to Quamut.
Unlike other types of spam, good link spam carries with it a wealth of benefits for the site being spammed:
1. It brings users. When a new social site debuts, especially when it is a "me-too" site like Quamut, getting users is tough. Unless you offer some special incentive, or your site provides something necessary that other sites don't, you have to fight a tough battle for users. If someone wants to add link spam to your site, they need to sign up. The thousands of SEO Spammers out there can quickly become thousands of new members of your site. And when the spammers sign up under multiple accounts, they can quickly become tens of thousands of new members.
2. It adds content. It might not be the best content ever written, but SEO spammers do know how to write content that, at the very least, is unique, keyword-rich and geared to any user that might stumble upon it. Contrary to popular belief, SEO spammers are not interested just in backlinks, but also in filling up the SERPs. If they can get a page on your site to rank by combining their content with strength of your site, and then convincing the user to shift to their site, the bottom line stays the same.
3. It raises stature. When your brand spanking new social network has 10,000 members and 50,000 UGC articles after only one month, your site starts to get noticed–even if most of those members are spammers and that content is primarily spam. There's a reason companies like MySpace and YouTube didn't crack down on spammers–and even explicitly allowed spam in their original Terms of Service. If you want to grow–and grow fast–no one will help as much as spammers.
SEO Spammers contributed to padding out Wikipedia; for every great article that was written to insert a spammy link, Wikipedia got a great article. They helped get YouTube to critical mass; for every YouTube embed done to get a YouTube backlink, YouTube got more video views. SEO Spammers keep MySpace growing. Do you still know anyone with a MySpace account? Can you tell me how their growth keeps skyrocketing? Check the inbox of your old MySpace account and you'll see how.
In short, SEO Spammers are helping the internet continue to grow. As each once-spammed site gets big off of the shoulders of spammers, they introduce methods to lock the spammers out, and the spurned SEOs move on to new sites. The cycle continues–and, with it, innovation in the social and user-generated content fields.
If popular sites are suffering under a flood of spam, I sympathize with their decision to add nofollow their links and put barriers to stop spammers–as long as they don't forget who made them popular to begin with.

Real Christians don't ask tough questions, some say. Wrong. That's how we grow, in both heart and mind.
Ryan knocked tentatively on my office door. "Can we talk?" "Sure come on in and sit down."
His steps were slow and deliberate as he walked over to take a seat. With one great sigh he unloaded his backpack on the floor and it hit with a thud. Then he sunk in the chair and unloaded his heart. "I thought I believed in God ... I mean, I've gone to church, since — well — forever, but I don't know if I really know God or not."
After some further conversation, Ryan unloaded even more doubt and questions about what it meant to believe in God in today's world. 9/11 had happened. Buddies of his were pressuring him to "hook up" with his girlfriend of a short time. He looked around and saw his parents struggling, and an older sister divorced after six months of marriage. The weight of his bookbag was not even close to the weight he was carrying inside.
Ryan (not his real name but his story is real) is typical of some of the students that come through the doors of the Focus on the Family Institute. He has been battered around by the world, and his faith has been put to the test. In the midst of the daily battles he is desperately trying to find out what it means to be a Christian in today's culture. From the church he hears a nostalgia that talks about how much easier it was in the "good ol' days." From the professors at his secular university he hears about the diminished role of the truth and the constant reinforcement of any truth. In that context he tries to figure out who God is and how He matters to his life.
The Institute at Focus is committed to that very idea: Who God is and how He matters not only to your lives, but to the entire world, generation after generation. Ryan's questions and doubts were indicative of what I have found in both secular and Christian colleges and universities for the last decade.
There is a sign on the wall of the classrooms that states our motto, "Equipping tomorrow's leaders for family, church, and society." We are, in essence, a leadership institute. The courses in worldviews, parenting, marriage and transforming the culture are geared toward answering Ryan's questions.
I see so many Christian students walking around with an air of, "I've got it all together." Ryan was afraid to share his doubts and fears about God because of those students, who most regrettably, would have met his questions about God with a look of disapproval, questions of Ryan's spiritual commitment, or out-and-out rejection: "Real Christians don't ask those questions!"
Yes they do. In fact their faith becomes all the more real when the Ryans of the world bring those questions before brothers and sisters in Christ who can help him work through them. Most importantly they all can take those questions before God, who desires, in our most intimate of relationships to be the one we run to when we question whether He is there or not.
Let's get specific here. There were some hefty things that weighed Ryan (and maybe you) down. I literally asked Ryan what was in his full-to-the-top-seams-almost-bursting book pack. Ryan unloaded his bag. He started with a book that he had on his shelf from his English classes that, through its analytical approach to literature, questioned the existence of an absolute truth; the story meant whatever you wanted it to. With this book and a couple others Ryan was demonstrating the weight of the intellectual challenges to Christianity that strike at the very root of who we are. They strike at the nature of an all-powerful, all-knowing, God of Truth. It is the burden of a world that seems to "know" more than God could possibly know.
The next set of books he brought out were books about how to get in touch with his "spiritual" self . There was a book on spiritual "karma" and how to create an environment where one could be at peace with the self and the world. There were books on spiritual healing from gurus and to top it off, there was a "Christian" book about some number of steps to be closer to God. Each offered some "secret" to the challenges we all face about spiritual connections with the Maker of the Universe, our Creator.
The last batch of books he unloaded were books about service. He was especially confused by the high level of commitment these secular authors had to the concept of serving one another, and how little commitment there was in his realm of experience among Christians about serving others. He had gotten these books out of frustration with hearing Christians speak all the right words, but rarely follow through with actions. "Where are the hearts of Christians?" he asked. The line that struck me most was when after a long pause he said, "I guess in my lifetime I've seen a lot of Christians, but very little Christ." Ouch!
Ryan may be very much like you. I know he echoes some of the seasons of my own life. We talked. We prayed. We read God's word. In the weeks to come our conversations moved from the easy (and popular) topic of sports to conversations about topics that mattered eternally.
I watched Ryan figuratively take each of the books out of his bag and lay that challenge down at the foot of the cross. He turned over his intellect to God to be used in not only discovering His Truth, but sharing it with others. He turned his spiritual questions over to God, acknowledging that there may be times that they are so intimate that they can never get enough of one another, and there may be times when to sit in a quiet spot together may be enough. He turned his questions of the heart and service to others over to the Christ who made a life (and death) of serving others in complete ways.
The final challenges I had for Ryan were tough ones. He needed some genuine, authentic and real Christians to turn to. He found some in his fellow students at the Institute. He found others in mentors and guides. He found still others in his church family. He admitted it was hard finding those "real" people (a sad and unfortunate reality), but when he found them, they stood out like a "sore thumb."
The other challenge I had for him was to take his situation before the Lord. Ryan was to put aside all the pretenses of a God was the King so busy He couldn't be bothered with another peasant request; he was, instead, to pour out his heart before the throne. This King listens, cares and wants you to reach out to him and be "real" to Him. In turn, this King becomes more real than anyone can imagine.
In the final week of classes here at the Institute, Ryan graced my doorway, smile plastered on his face and made himself at home in the now, familiar chair.
"Notice anything different about me?"
It wasn't a new shirt, shoes or haircut. I gave up.
"No weighty book bag!" he exclaimed.
"Who's got it?" I asked.
Ryan paused briefly, gave me a wink, and in an energetic tone said, "I gave it to someone who was better prepared to carry it, who wanted it, and promised it would make my load lighter."
After another pause he continued. "I was thinking — would you mind praying with me? I think I want to rededicate my life to God."
In my first year at the Institute, I have seen our faculty and staff go to great lengths to create a curriculum and environment where leadership qualities and attributes are developed in these great college students. On that day, though, Ryan equipped himself better for leadership than anything we could teach in a classroom. He realized the amazing and compelling call that Jesus has for each of us in Matthew 22:37 — "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul and with all your mind."
Our backpacks get so full of the weight of the world and the challenges to our minds, hearts and spirits, that at some point we have to un-shoulder the burden of the pack and lay it down at the foot of cross. Christ, along with the burdens of so many others, finds a way to bend down and shoulder our pack. We just have to put it down.

Out with the old and in with the new. This was true for two players at the BB&T Atlanta Open Wednesday. Wild card Christian Harrison burst on the scene with his first ATP Tour win over Alejandro Falla from Columbia. Harrison won the first set easy at 6-1. As expected, Falla regained his playing composure and edged Harrison out of a close second set tie-break. Harrison was able to play mentally tough and win the final set in commanding fashion at 6-2. Harrison stated, "… and I could see his body language at the end of the first start to drop but he fought back in the second. When I got into position to win the second set, I got a little hesitant. I just believed in myself in the third and trusted I could get it done." For two time BB&T champion Mardy Fish, his return to the ATP Tour was cut short by Michael Russell in a 3 set match that spanned over two days due to rain.
James Blake had a hum-dinger of a match with qualifier Tim Smyczek. Smyczek's movement, service game and conditioning attributed to pushing Blake to his limits. Blake on the match, "I felt like I didn't return well and he did a great job of taking care of his serve. At 5 all, I was definitely feeling it. It was my first match in this kind of heat so my legs started cramping a little bit. Being on the tour 13 years, I kind of learned a few tricks of the trade to take advantage when you can…" Blake pulled it out in a tight 3 setter 7-6(3), 4-6, 7-6(4). He then returned to the night session with partner Jack Sock and played another highly competitive match against the Brazilian team of Marcelo Demoliner and Andre Sa. After blowing a 5-2 lead in the first set, the Americans were able to hold on for a 3 set win 5-7, 7-6(4), 10-6.
Others that advanced were Lleyton Hewitt d. Rhyne Williams, Ivan Dodig d. Ricardas Berankis and qualifier Matthew Ebden d. Ivo Karlovic who retired citing fatique.

Arlene Dickinson
"Dragon" on Dragon's Den | Star of "Under New Management" (CBC)
"The purpose of marketing is to deliver results," says Arlene Dickinson, former CBC "dragon" and one of Canada's most successful communications entrepreneurs. Whether explaining how to leverage marketing in even the toughest of economic times, sharing backstage stories from "The Den," or giving audiences a look into her personal story of success, Dickinson's experience and expertise always shine through. +
Dickinson is one of Canada's most renowned independent marketing communications entrepreneurs. As CEO of Venture Communications, her creative and strategic approach has turned the company into a powerhouse with a blue chip client list. She is also the CEO of District Ventures Capital, a fund investing in Canadian companies in the food and health sectors.
Best known to Canadians as one of the venture capitalists on the award-winning series Dragons' Den, an investor on The Big Decision, and a judge on Recipe to Riches, Dickinson is also the author of two bestselling books — Persuasion, and her most recent bestselling release, All In.
Her success and leadership has been recognized with multiple honours and awards including: Canada's Most Powerful Women Top 100, the Pinnacle Award for Entrepreneurial Excellence, as well as PROFIT and Chatelaine's TOP 100 Women Business Owners Awards.
Dickinson is an Honorary Captain of the Royal Canadian Navy and is the recipient of honorary degrees from Mount Saint Vincent University, Concordia University, Saint Mary's University and NAIT. She is a recipient of the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee medal. She also sits on numerous public and private boards and is dedicated to giving back to her community and country. --
Arlene Dickinson's Speaking Presentations:
Lessons from the Den: Succeeding at Business and Being an Entrepreneur
In this talk, one of Canada's most high profile business women distills a lifetime of experience to reveal everything you need to know — and do — to start, to run, and to grow a great business. (A customized clip from the hit show Dragons' Den provides buzz; though that's just a starting point.) +
On stage, as on the small screen, Dickinson displays a palpable and infectious belief in the entrepreneurial spirit; she reminds us of the major contributions Canadians have made to international business and the entrepreneurial tradition. --
Leadership and Strategic Marketing
"Like laying bricks to build a house, each dollar you spend on marketing should measurably build your business." Marketing plays a fundamental role in all businesses — yet it is seldom held accountable the way other departments are. +
A superstar marketer driven by corporate objectives, Arlene Dickinson shows us why marketing must be a top concern of leadership, and why creativity and accountability must go hand in hand. Otherwise, why bother with marketing at all?
Dickinson, as she does weekly on Dragons' Den, will help decision-makers grasp the essential strategic function of marketing in an insightful, accessible and frank talk, anchored squarely to the bottom line. --
Don't Slash Your Marketing Budget! (Not Now, Not Ever)
The marketing guru on Dragons' Den, Arlene Dickinson shows us why the best companies don't stop marketing during a recession. With striking examples, and peerless business sense, she shows you how to leverage your marketing through the tough times — in order to come out ahead when the good times return.
Marketing Yourself
Success is often taken for granted; few stop to think about where it came from, what shaped it, what trials were involved. In this refreshing business talk, Arlene Dickinson tells her story, providing a rare look into the making of one of Canada's most powerful business women. Brimming with lessons in self-doubt and self-confidence, this refreshing talk is underscored by modesty, grit, and enormous heart.

Stamford Bridge forward wants to leave.
Check-In to Man City v Real Madrid
The Daily Mail reports that Chelsea forward Fernando Torres is looking to leave Stamford Bridge for a return to his native Spain.
The 28 year old is apparently ready to force the issue after a less than glorious spell at the West London club despite the fact that Roberto Di Matteo has steadfastly stuck with the former Liverpool man this term.
The Italian boss only appeared to lose faith in the striker last night when he elected to leave Torres on the bench for their crucial tie in Turin, a move that backfired as Chelsea had no recognised forward in Di Matteo's starting eleven as they crashed to a 3-0 defeat against Juventus.
Torres has however started all 12 of Chelsea's Premier League fixtures but has just four goals to his name and is still nowhere near justifying the £50m outlay paid for his services.
A move back to Spain's top tier may well help to reignite his career but would depend on a side being willing to pay at least half the fee Roman Abramovich paid for him in January 2011 and currently such a sum is unlikely to be forked out in a hurry.
Torres has netted a total of 19 goals in 88 matches for Chelsea.

Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and Cooperative Extension Program agents implement innovative and contemporary programs that meet the needs of local clientele and communities.
These programs result in measurable outcomes that truly "Make a Difference". One of the methods agents are recognized and rewarded for effective programming is through the County Extension Agent Career Ladder system.
The purpose of the career ladder is to provide a system for measuring and documenting the progress of Extension Agents in their profession and to reward their professional accomplishments.
The following table provides a timeline from June through September for managing promotion in the Professional Career Ladder System for County Extension Agents;
The effectiveness of the career ladder process is directly correlated to our Level IV "mentors" RPL's and myself with engagement in coaching D11 County Extension Agents. The success of this system is important for Extension to maintain a competent, committed, and dedicated workforce.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you stuck Princess Diaries, Center Stage and Ilene Chaiken in a blender and pressed "frappe"? Well, you're about to find out. The CW is teaming up with The L Word creator to produce a drama based on the teen novel Confessions of a Backup Dancer.
I may be using the word "novel" a little too loosely. Confessions of a Backup Dancer makes Cecily von Ziegesar's Gossip Girl books look like Pulitzer Prize-winning literature. In fact, Confessions of a Backup Dancer makes Junie B. Jones' first grade journal look like Pulitzer Prize-winning literature.
See for yourself:
Junie B. Jones, seven years old, in Junie B. Jones, First Grader at Last.
Kelly Kimball, 17 years old, in Confessions of a Backup Dancer.
The premise of Confessions is that Kelly Kimball takes a job as a backup dancer for pop superstar Darcy Barnes. They become best pals until Darcy's mom, Darla, kicks Kelly out of the show, and she is forced to take a position with an opposing dance troupe. The story is told through Kelly's entries in her personal diary software.
It sounds like The CW's version is going to be a little different. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Confessions will "explore the glamorous and gritty behind-the-scenes world of a major pop tour from the point of view of the star's troupe of backing dancers."
And, of course, it doesn't really matter if the the book is crap. I mean, look at Gossip Girl. The CW has adapted von Ziegesar's sophomoric writing into the Greatest Show Ever. What really matters is that the script writer — in this case, Ilene Chaiken — is adept at creating authentic, well-rounded characters and is able to tell organic stories the audience can relate to.
Ruh-roh. Sounds like Confessions is already in trouble!
Or, you know, maybe not. Maybe Chaiken's move to the CW signals the time to wipe the slate clean and give her another chance to win our affection. Everyone makes mistakes. Maybe she's ready to learn from the debacle of the last few seasons of The L Word and bring us something fresh and entertaining. With her at the helm of Confessions of a Backup Dancer, we just might get ourselves an actual lesbian teen on TV.
We'll just have to cross our fingers that Chaiken doesn't kill her.
What do you think about CW's plan to team up with Ilene Chaiken?

When it comes to classic shoot 'em-ups, few titles have been able to match 1942. This series has been known for its vertically scrolling, non-stop shooting goodness since being originally released in 1984. This time around it's on your Xbox 360 in the form of a downloadable game for Xbox Live Arcade players.
Everything you remember from playing 1942 back in the day is pretty much unchanged–it's your standard vertical scrolling shoot 'em up with the same non-stop, fast-paced action. And it's still you against legions of bad guys, most of whom don't stand a chance against your assortment of weapons. While the mechanics are the same as always enough was changed that the game stays interesting. The most noticeable upgrade was that the graphics are fantastic and even though you you rarely get a chance to stop and look, the art is quite impressive. As you probably guessed from the name, the game also gets a team mode so you can join up with a buddy and fight the forces of evil together.
Joint Strike is made up of five increasingly difficult levels all of which are capped off with bosses. As the levels progress the enemies get tougher and there are more of them, but the gameplay stay quite constant. This means its probably a good thing that there are just five levels–the sixth and seventh would just be more of the same. Instead players can focus on replaying the game at harder difficulty levels, racking up higher scores, and earning Xbox achievements. The difficulty levels will determine how many lives you start the game with. They will bring the game anywhere from relatively easy, to tough but management, to downright insane.
As firepower goes, 1942 is pretty simplistic. You have a basic gun which you will never use in the game as there is almost always an upgrade available (one pops up when you die). The upgrades come in the form of a straight quad-shot, a spreading shot, and a laser. While three options sounds like fun, players will quickly realizes that the laser is the only way to go so it basically becomes your standard weapon unless you want to make things harder on yourself. Occasional powerups include health, more bombs, and two limited-quantity weapons: a fast-firing but not particularly effective machine gun and a powerful set of rockets which destroy even tougher enemies in one hit. By picking up the same upgrade you are using you can double your firepower, but this trick only works once, after that you just get points. You can also shoot a charged up shot, using homing missiles, and drop screen-clearing bombs.
As far as the co-op playing, you can play online or offline with a friend. When doing this your normally excellent homing missiles will be replaced with a somewhat less fun lightning attack which is brings an interesting dynamic but doesn't really take the place of the missiles. It's great to be able to play with a friend, but it's more an added bonus than a reason to buy the game.
You can choose between three planes, following the predictable pattern of a fast but light one, a middle-of-the-road choice, and a slow, but heavily armored plane. You can attempt to beat the game with each, but it's a lot harder with the fastest of the bunch so despite it's appeal this one is for experts only. Disappointingly, no other planes are unlockable.
{ad}Part of the beauty of the 1942 series is that you know that you are getting. If you like shmups then you can't go wrong this one. You will have to be the type of player that enjoys replaying the five levels in order to rack up the highest score possible or earn achievements, but for 800 points, its not a hard decision to make. Joint Strike is one of the best picks to hit the Xbox 360's downloadable content area recently.

Hot Sauce, as many of us know already, is one way that a Chillihead can get a quick fix of their favourite kinds of food. It's a quick and easy fix to an otherwise bland meal. There are of course lots of sauces out there for you to buy, however there are some of us that want to try and have a go at making our own.
After a little research some can find this a little daunting, especially for someone who just wants a quick go at it. It's not that it's especially hard, it's just the sheer amount of choice of recipes and methods can leave you scratching your head.
And this is where the Chilli Experience Hot Sauce Making Kit comes in.

Geothermal Potential Of The Swiss Molasse Basin
From Open Energy Information
OpenEI Reference LibraryAdd to library
Journal Article: Geothermal Potential Of The Swiss Molasse Basin
AbstractThe Swiss Molasse Basin (SMB) is characterized by a relatively smooth temperature field (average geothermal gradient 30-degrees-C/km with a slight tendency for the gradient to decrease from north to south). In terms of geothermal energy potential (=possibilities to use the heat content of the subsurface) several categories are addressed: a) thermal springs, b) stratiform aquifers, c) artificial systems (shallow geothermics: Vertical earth heat exchangers, VHE; deep geothermics: Hot Dry Rock, HDR). The absence of thermal springs in the SMB is indicative of generally low vertical permeability of Molasse sediments. Several potential regional aquifers can be identified: Obere Meeresmolasse, top Mesozioc carbonates (?), Oberer Muschelkalk. Exploration and development risk increases with depth; a potential assessment with rather optimistic assumptions yields marginal figures. On the other hand, VHE potential is considerable (at least 5000 TJ/a); the SMB exhibits the highest VHE density in the world. The potential of HDR systems is difficult to assess; figures in the range 50000-500000 TJ/a might be conservative. This option still requires intensified research and development efforts.

SE250, More than expected
Arrived at my door in perfect shape, really liked the free shipping.
I love how neat and organized this keeps my tools! As a professional mechanic I can't begin to explain the appreciation of finding the tool you want on the spot. Holds everything you'd need for just about any common job and it just begs to be organized when your done. I look forward to years of use out of this thing! Will probably buy another for home.

Superior Quality & Organization
I needed a box to store a full set of standard tools plus screwdrivers, hammer, punches, grease gun, multimeter, etc. As a territory rep for an ag equipment company, I spend a lot of time on the road, and often find myself in remote locations. The Montezuma SE250 provides plenty of room for all of your tools, all the while keeping them in place and perfectly organized. Another great thing about this toolbox is the weather resistance. Even while driving in thunderstorms, the interior stays bone dry. Once home, I can move the SE250 to my bottom box, where it fits perfectly. (Posted on 8/8/2013)

Badfinger – Queen Of Darkness lyrics
Queen of darkness colour your hair
Let it shine bright. He'll be there
Queen of lies. Magic smile
Spin your web. Watch him die
Queen of sorrow is what you are
Sad and lonely, with no truthful friends
No truthful friends
Queen of darkness with your head in your hands
So full of sorrow just won't understand
No you won't understand
Lyrics taken from http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/badfinger/queen_of_darkness.html

Today at panasonic i've met with joey, who introduced the latest in washing machines: a system that washes and dries your dirty cloths foe much less water and electricity. In fact, panasonic claims it uses 20k gallons less per year (!!)
The machine does that by tilting the drum on an axcel, this achieving the safe rabric to water contact as a regular drum for less.
Currently the machine is sold in japan only. Joey explained that homes in US need a much bigger unit such is why they are not making a move yet.

HA NOI – The funeral for beloved Guitarist Ta Tan, one of the most influential artists in Vietnamese music, was held earlier this week in Ha Noi after he passed away at the age of 87.
Tan was born in 1925 as Ta Duy Thai in suburban Ha Noi. He helped his parents in business and by chance had an opportunity to learn guitar from a Japanese musician.
He was immediately attracted to the instrument and pursued the art. He continued his studies with a professional guitarist from the Philippines and joined his band to perform in HCM City.
Tan opened Ha Noi's first guitar class in 1944 which was followed by many other classes for people from all walks of life.
He was one of the founding members of the National Music Academy in 1955 and during his 30 years as a teacher there he trained many guitarists who have been honoured at home and abroad.
Tan's contributions of teaching, holding workshops and composing Vietnamese folk songs for guitar earned him the noble title Excellent Teacher in 1990.
In addition to music, Tan also had a passion for sculpture and painting. His 300 sculptures and paintings were displayed at exhibitions both at home and abroad and some are part of the collection at the National Fine Arts Museum.
"In both fine arts and music, I work with desire for love, happiness and equality," he said. "Working for art is my joy." – VNS

The Tribeca Film Festival was created to promote New York artists following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, but critics say many of the most compelling entries during the event's eight year-history have been foreign documentaries and dramas. Organizers believe a strong slate of foreign films each year echoes the multi-cultural spirit of the city.
The Tribeca Film Festival was trimmed down this year as a result of the economic downturn, showing 86 features instead of the 120 last year. Films from 36 countries are among the works being screened, with many of those movies competing in Tribeca's two main categories, World Narrative and World Competition.
Hollywood actor Robert DeNiro and his partner Jane Rosenthal launched the festival shortly after the September 11 terrorist attacks. The pair wanted to bring both money and people back to lower Manhattan, and established the Tribeca Film Festival as a way of promoting local and foreign artists. Tribeca is a trendy neighborhood, located just blocks from the site of the World Trade Center attacks.
The festival grew in leaps and bounds, and Rosenthal said each year takes on a theme. This year, the festival sought more comedies as the world struggles through an economic recession.
"We've got Woody Allen and we've go Spike Lee's movies. We've got a lot of filmmakers that you haven't heard of and a lighter fair of entertainment than you've ever heard of before. I think we all need a laugh this year," Rosenthal said.
Even with a scaled-back festival, organizers said it's essential to keep the event's mix of homegrown artists and foreign newcomers. Genna Terranova is the festival's senior programmer.
"New York is a melting pot, as we know, so it's very easy to represent and have all different types of movies from all different countries. We automatically have a built in audience being such an eclectic mix of people here," Terranova said.
Some of this year's most anticipated films include About Elly, an Iranian drama about a group of old college friends who reunite for a weekend adventure on the sea, but lies and deception quickly lead to a catastrophe. Asghar Farhadi took the Best Director prize at the Berlin Film Festival this year.
"This is just such a beautiful film, it's superbly acted. We are really proud to have such a strong Iranian film in competition," Terranova said.
Another film earning critical acclaim is Fixer: The Taking of Ajmal Naqshbandi. The documentary examines the 2007 kidnapping and beheading by the Taliban of the 24-year-old translator and intermediary hired by foreign journalists in Afghanistan. Directed by an American, Ian Olds, the movie is being shown in English, Dari, Pashto and Italian subtitles.
As in previous years, Latin American films are making a strong showing at the festival. Terranova said one highlight was the Brazilian movie, Garapa, directed by Jose Padilha.
"It's a documentary about hunger in Brazil. He follows three families, with a 16mm black and white camera. He sort of lives with this family. It's a tough film," Terranova said.
It's not just critics who flock to Tribeca's independent and foreign offerings. Outside the box office, audience members said they were excited about seeing a variety of films from different countries. Filmgoer Ann Jones said the festival atmosphere adds to the experience.
"I really like the fact that you see a film and the people that have made the film, most often the director, is present afterwards for questions and answers," Jones said.
Because many foreign, small budget and independent films often have a hard time finding large audiences or a distributor in the United States, the festival's programmers say that promoting those works is part of what makes Tribeca a special outlet for artists from all around the world.

Transitioning to college can be much easier when you live in a residential college.
A residential college is a place where freshmen of the same discipline live, study and work together under the same roof. The LSU College of Engineering Residential College (ERC), or North Hall, houses 350 students studying computer science, construction management, or engineering.
"The benefits of living in a residential college are countless. Students who choose to live within a residential college community have access to resources and events that other students simply aren't privy to," said Derek Calderara, residential life coordinator for the North Community.
Living in a residential college comes with many perks. Numerous classes, supplemental instruction sessions and professor office hours take place in the same building where students live.
On top of academic help, ERC students also build a sense of community by making friends outside of class.
"Community is the sound of friends kicking around a soccer ball in the courtyard. It's the silence of a study room being shared between a dozen students, and it's the vision of faculty, staff and students all sharing space in the dining halls on campus," Calderara explained. "We are all part of the same LSU community."
According to ERC Rector Mark Rabalais, students who live in the ERC are more likely to graduate on time compared to their peers who live elsewhere. Rabalais said that the combination of the ERC's community and academic perks is what contributes to students' higher graduation rates.
"I think a sense of community just adds to the sense of belonging somewhere and increases your chances of succeeding," he said.
Students form relationships and friendships with their classmates in the ERC for different reasons.
"Students often come together naturally whether it's due to common interests in the same video games or sports, or simply due to coursework. Students have bonded regularly in developing study scheduling that match up with the challenging schedule they face," Calderara said. "Most of all I notice the overall optimism and enthusiasm that radiates from almost all of our students in the ERC. Everyone seems genuinely happy to be a part of the community here."
