No observations of Colorado beetles in Finland so far
No Colorado beetles have been found in Finland this year. This beetle, which is regarded as the world's most serious potato pest, was most recently found in Finland in 2007. However, the species is commonplace in the Baltic countries and in Russia, so the risk of it spreading to Finland is still high.
Warm weather conditions speed up the development of the Colorado beetle. At this time of the summer, leaves with holes or badly eaten leaves may be found among the potato plants. By examining such plants, one may find both adult beetles and larvae of different sizes. The larvae, in particular, first eat holes in the potato leaves and later eat the leaves completely, resulting in leafless plants in places.
An adult Colorado beetle is about one centimetre long. There are 10 black longitudinal stripes on the yellow back, and the pronotum is orange with black spots. The beetle's 1.5-millimetre-long yellowy-orange eggs are found in tight groups on the underneath of the leaves.
A newly hatched larva is approximately 1–2 millimetres long and darkish in colour. The larvae grow rapidly, and their convex back soon turns orange to pinkish-red. The larva has a black head and two rows of black spots down the sides. A full-grown larva is slightly more than a centimetre long.
Evira asks all professional and small-scale potato farmers to monitor their potato crops. Any observations or suspicions of Colorado beetles must be reported immediately to Evira's service number so as to verify the observations. The plant protection inspectors of Evira and the ELY Centres are responsible for the associated monitoring and control.
The service number for reporting observations is +358 (0)40 801 4407 (9am–8pm).
For further information and contact details, please see Evira's Web site (in Finnish): www.evira.fi/koloradonkuoriainen.
Evira will release a new bulletin on Colorado beetles if they are observed in Finland.
For more information, please contact Raija Valtonen, Head of Section, Evira,

Got 2 emails regarding both EPNs within 7 mins of each other. I do have some Ebay sites...but all traffic was driven BH with all clicks and no impressions. Are these accts finished? Should I bother responding trying to resolve? Or get another EPN and move on?? Any advise in response to this email would help. Thanks.


text: Few events in history carry a collective memory as salient as World War II. The defining, and arguably concluding incident within this struggle occurred on August 6, 1945 and again three days later when the United States decided to deploy atomic force upon the Japanese cities of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Ten days later, Japan surrendered. Two hundred thousand individuals were reported dead within a month of the bombings, yet many thousands more were effected by the radiation throughout their life. This weapon was created by scientists, men and women who unknowingly facilitated the murders of innocent men, women, and children. On the macro level we know what the result of the Manhattan Project was; this website chooses to explore the trauma the scientists who worked on the the project felt at the micro level.

Boy, if you have to wait to buy a dishwasher, you really are living too close to the edge for me
They're not waiting to buy a dishwasher because they don't have the money, but because they're waiting for a good deal to come along.
For example, my old sweatpants are falling apart so I've been looking for a new pair. I'm not going to pay for a pair that aren't perfect for me, nor am I willing to pay $100 for a fancy pair, even though I'm perfectly able to afford $100. I recently located a pair that fit me and look great, and I waited a few weeks until they were on sale and used a gift card for the purchase.
That's not living close to the edge, it's more like delaying gratification in order to save money and get a better deal.

A delegation to explain Arab peace proposals has arrived here, including the first Saudi Arabian envoy known to have visited Moscow in decades.
Moscow has long wanted to improve ties with the influential, rigidly Islamic, generally pro-Western Saudi regime - and to restore formal diplomatic ties cut in the late 1930s.
Such a step would fit nicely with Soviet hopes to counter increased United States' dominance of the Arab-Israeli negotiating process in recent years.
A further sign of this desire has been the Kremlin's general public support for the Arab peace plan, though followed by release of a Soviet blueprint more explicit on eventual Arab recognition of Israel.
Diplomats here saw the inclusion of Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al Faisal in the Arab delegation as meant to stress to Moscow the importance attached to the Arab peace plan, drawn up in September.
The diplomats said they assumed Soviet officials might make use of Prince Saud's presence to broach the subject of improved bilateral ties - but also felt visible progress on that front was not likely. Neither Prince Saud nor Soviet officials were immediately available for comment. Saudi leaders, including King Fahd and Prince Saud, have on occasion suggested Moscow could play a role in Mideast negotiating moves.
The delegation to Moscow, headed by Jordan's King Hussein, is one of several sent by the Arab League to present the Arab proposals to world leaders. Another group, also including Prince Saud, met President Reagan in October.
Moscow has already spoken warmly of the Arab proposals and argues they have much in common with a statement of Soviet Mideast policy made shortly after by late Kremlin leader Leonid Brezhnev.
The Soviets have also vocally contrasted both their own policy and the Arab plan to a Reagan administration blueprint announced in early September, envisaging an eventual Jordanian-Palestinian federation as part of Mideast peace.
Both the Jordanians - and, much more guardedly, some Palestine Liberation Organization officials - have signaled interest in the US initiative.
Arab and Western diplomats feel Moscow may want to sound out the delegation on its precise thoughts on the US and Soviet proposals - specifically on the feasibility of grafting of Soviet-Arab proposals to facilitate an expanded Kremlin diplomatic role.
The stay of the delegation may also provide further glimpses into the Soviets' transition from the rule of Mr. Brezhnev.
Soviet party leader Yuri Andropov seems rapidly to have emerged as prime foreign policy voice for the new leadership, an impression reinforced by the announcement late Dec. 2 he had received King Hussein for an exchange of views on bilateral and Mideast question.
Arab diplomats say they will also be watching Soviet statements during the visit to see whether they dwell on the Brezhnev peace blueprint or include expanded policy remarks from Mr. Andropov.

Seems like every network wants a witch show these days. FX has "American Horror Story: Coven." Lifetime has the "Witches of East End." Witches are casting spells in CW's "The Originals" and "The Vampire Diaries," Fox's "Sleepy Hollow" and a number of other shows.
On Friday, the latest witch project took off, sans brooms I'm sure, when production began in Shreveport, La., on "Salem," WGN America's first original scripted series.
"Salem" tells the story of the notorious Salem witch trials in 17th century Massachusetts. According to WGN America, "'Salem' explores what really fueled the town's infamous witch trials and dares to uncover the dark, supernatural truth behind them."
"In 'Salem,' witches are real, but they are not who or what they seem," reads a press release from WGN America. "The show, which centers on an epic romance wrapped around this explosive revelation, delivers a bold new vision of Salem--and an even bolder new vision of witches."
That epic romance is likely to involve handsome, hardened war veteran John Alden and Salem's most powerful witch and Alden's one-time love interest, Mary Sibley. "Nikita" star Shane West has been cast as Alden, while Janet Montgomery, currently in the Starz miniseries "Dancing on the Edge," will play Sibley. Artist Anne Hale, played by Tamzin Merchant, falls for Alden but is unaware of his history with Sibley.
"Salem" boasts a mostly familiar supporting cast, including Seth Gabel ("Fringe" and "Arrow") as aristocrat Cotton Mather, who fans the flames of Salem's witch hunt; Ashley Madekwe ("Revenge") as Sibley's mysterious, carnal accomplice; Xander Berkeley ("Nikita") as Magistrate Hale, and Elise Eberle ("The Astronaut Farmer") as the mysteriously afflicted Mercy Lewis.
WGN America has ordered 13 episodes of the drama that is set to premiere in Spring 2014, prior to the summer premiere of the network's "Manhattan" series.
Brannon Braga, whose credits include "24" and the "Star Trek" series "The Next Generation," "Voyager" and "Enterprise," and Adam Simon ("The Haunting in Connecticut") co-created, write and executive produce "Salem." Along with the creators, Prospect Park's Josh Barry and Jeff Kwatinetz executive produce, with co-executive producers Liz Sarnoff, Tricia Small, Jon Feldman and Vahan Moosekian. Richard Shepherd is directing the drama from Fox 21, whose projects include "Homeland" and "Sons of Anarchy."
WGN America, like RedEye, is a Tribune Company property.

Found my mojo...
When I first agreed to do this, I was very scared. I truly thought I could never be motivated enough to get my lazy butt in gear. Boy, was I wrong! I had so much fun putting together my 10 christmas cards. I want to share them with you, but I want to keep it a surprise for Michelle. So, I plan on posting my christmas cards after this Saturday, once I have had a chance to meet up with her and do our swap.
I owe Michelle the biggest inky hug for helping me find my stamping mojo. It is also because of her that I have the guts to start my own blog! Check her blog out. She is a very creative stamper and I absolutely lover her work. (MEG Bee Designs).
My mother is currently in the hospital recooperating after having major surgery. Like I mentioned above, she has stage IV bladder cancer. The doctors removed her entire bladder last Thursday in a very delicate surgery, which took about 5 1/2 hours with two surgeons. This is still going to be an uphill battle. When she leaves the hospital, she will have another bout of chemo & radiation to deal with. My father and I have a wonderful outlet of friends & family supporting my mother and both of us. I am blessed and truly grateful to have these people in my life.

Jimenez, Campbell share lead in Hong Kong Open golf
Spanish veteran Miguel Angel Jimenez, bidding to become the oldest player to win on the European Tour, grabbed a share of the lead after the third round at the $2 million UBS Hong Kong Open on Saturday.
He was 10-under-par 200 for the tournament, level with the overnight leader, Michael Campbell. Matteo Manassero, winner of the Barclays Singapore Open last week and less than half Jimenez's age, moved ominously into contention with six-under 64.
The Italian, 19, was joint third with China's Zhang Lianwei, a shot behind the co-leaders. Next up, another shot adrift, was Swede Fredrik Andersson Hed. Peter Lawrie of Ireland and the Dane Anders Hansen were three off the leaders.
With world number one Rory McIlroy on the plane home after failing to make the cut, the 48-year-old Jimenez made his move on the Kiwi Campbell, who is hitting the kind of form that saw him lift the US Open in 2005.
Jimenez, who carded a 68, is chasing a hat-trick of titles at the Hong Kong Open, which is co-sanctioned between the European Tour and Asian Tour. He was also victorious at Fanling in 2004 and 2007.
"Today was a bit scrappy," said Campbell, who clung onto the joint lead with a 15-foot putt on the 18th to save par.
"I managed to grind out a score, which is important when you are not playing so well. I turned a 73 into a 69, which is always nice, and I've still got a chance to win tomorrow.
"Miguel has played some great golf once again. He's obviously won this twice before, so he's the man to beat, and also Matty (Manassero) is playing some great golf again after winning last week, then there is the local favourite Zhang."
Manassero, whose scorching 64 included an eagle at the 13th and five birdies, said: "Everything is coming together. Last week really made me relax a lot on the golf course.
"These three rounds and my position coming into this Sunday are certainly due to last week (victory in Singapore) and what happened last week. I've got more freedom.
"I'm just more relaxed on the golf course and I take it the way it comes," added the rising star, who had said he was suffering from fatigue after his heroics in Singapore, where he triumphed after three play-off holes.
"It's going really well because everything, the game is coming together. I have to say, this is a great moment."

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Gold futures on Friday closed back above the $1,200-an-ounce as traders recovered a portion of the more than 3% drop in the prior session that sent prices to their lowest settlement in more than three years.
Gold for February delivery US:GCG4 tacked on $10.10, or 0.9%, to settle at $1,203.70 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. For the week, prices settled 2.5% lower.
On Thursday, gold futures lost 3.4%, or $41.40, falling to $1,193.60 an ounce, their lowest settlement in more than three years and the biggest single-session loss since late June, pressured by the Federal Reserve's January tapering plans and a rally in the U.S. dollar DXY, -0.03%
March silver US:SIH4 added 27 cents, or 1.4%, to $19.45 an ounce on Friday, after suffering a 4.4% drop on Thursday. Prices saw a loss of 0.8% on the week.
"The game of musical chairs with the [Federal Open Market Committee] regarding when to taper is over. Reality has now hit home that gold will struggle in this coming environment," said Richard Gotterer, managing director and senior financial advisor at Wescott Financial Advisory Group.
With the "FOMC fully on the taper trade, it's going to be hard to see gold make any significant headway going into year-end and 2014," he said.
Gold futures prices have lost roughly 28% for the year as of Friday's close, ready for their first yearly loss in 13 years.
During this year, the "'will they or won't they' debate on tapering took its toll on the price of the precious metal," said Jeffrey Sica, president and chief investment officer of Sica Wealth Management.
Investors were fearful of a possible taper and gold maintained a reasonable price, but once the taper fears subsided and investors started chasing the equity market, there was an "exodus from gold and it was viewed as an unnecessary investment," said Sica. Now that tapering will begin in January, "albeit small and insignificant, the fear of a pullback in the equity market will return and investors will be looking to return to gold in 2014."
But not everyone completely agrees.
Jeffrey Wright, managing director at H.C. Wainwright, said gold in the short term will face pressure due to a stronger U.S. dollar and "further emphasis on money flowing into broader equity markets in search of return." That will increase volatility for gold, with prices having the potential to test the $1,100 support levels in coming weeks, he said.
But in the medium term, "these scenarios typically overplay themselves and gold could attract institutional and central-bank interest in an 'overreaction' to the taper," said Wright. For 2014, he sees gold moving in the $1,050 to $1,250 range without some additional catalyst.
In economic news on Friday, the government revised its estimate for U.S. third-quarter economic growth upward to 4.1%, topping expectations. Gross domestic product got a lift from increased consumer spending and more business investment in intellectual property such as software.
Elsewhere in metals trading, January platinum US:PLF4 added $13.80, or 1.1%, to $1,332.20 an ounce while March palladium US:PAH4 tacked on $2.45, or 0.4%, to $698.75 an ounce. Both metals, however, loss more than 2% for the week. High-grade copper for March delivery US:HGH4 added over a penny, or 0.4%, to $3.31 a pound, down 0.1% from a week ago.

Do you know what Saturday, November 26th is? It's Small Business Saturday! We've all shopped Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Let's help to make Small Business Saturday a success. I love small businesses where the owners and employees care about their products and their customers. Especially those that give back to the local communities. Not the ones where the girl is poppin her gum, looking past you, and lets out a sigh to grab a shirt that is 7 feet up a wall, out of your reach. If you dont want to be bothered, how about you put it down a little lower. But I digress.
Help spread the word. Shop at a local small business. If you need help finding a business to support, you can go to this facebook page and put in your area code. It will list the small businesses in your community.
If you are a small business and would like to promote your business and add it to the list, you can go here. The "For Your Biz" link will give you all the informaiton that you need. It will provide you with signage to post in your stores and badges for your website. It also gives you free facebook ad credits!
So lets get ready to support our small businesses. I'll be supporting some of my favorite businesses like the Savory Spice Shop and TrySports in Raleigh, NC. I'll definitely need Trysports to help me get myself back together after Thanksgiving. Lets not make Saturday the only day. Lets support these businesses throughout the year.
Who will you be supporting?

Welcome to Gilden Test & Inspection Ltd.
– The PATesting Specialists
Gilden Test & Inspection Ltd, based in Sevenoaks, work for clients in a wide range of business sectors. Our clients range from very small companies with just a few appliances to large organisations, including the National Trust and Kent County Council, with thousands of appliances across multiple locations.
Accredited by ConstructionLine. GTI have achieved accreditation with ConstructionLine – the UK's most connected and progressive provider of procurement and supply chain management services, making contracting simpler.
Health & Safety accreditation by Acclaim Accreditation. Acclaim is a member of SSiP and enables Gilden Test & Inspection to demonstrate compliance with relevant Health & Safety legislation.
If you have any questions about electrical appliance testing please contact us.
About Us
Gilden Test & Inspection Ltd is a family run business with over 15 years experience. We have built a good relationship with loyal clients who continue to use us year on year due to our thorough yet unobtrusive approach. We pride ourselves in offering a bespoke, risk assessed service, whilst maintaing reasonable cost and high efficiency.
What is PAT?
The definition "portable appliance testing" can be misleading. The Code of Practice for the In-Service Inspection & Testing of Electrical Equipment has a broad scope and applies to any appliance which is connected to a mains electrical supply.
So the appliance may be portable or it may be stationary. It may have a three pin plug or it may have a hard-wired connection into the mains circuit. All should be maintained so as to prevent such danger.
When testing a microwave oven for electrical safety we also carry out a radio frequency or microwave leakage test. We are able to test both domestic and industrial microwave ovens.
Testing Process
Our testing procedure adheres closely to that established in the Code of Practice for the In-Service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment.
We find that many PAT companies will only do a "visual check" on sensitive IT equipment. At GTI we have invested in equipment which can safely test IT appliances so that a complete service is provided.
As each appliance is tested, the results are recorded in a computerised asset inventory which includes much more information than purely whether the appliance passed or failed.
Of course, our test equipment must be safe and accurate. To this end it is annually calibrated and tested. Copies of our calibration certificates are included in our Exchange of Information file.
Record Keeping
There is very little value in receiving a written report that just states whether appliances have passed or failed the test. In fact it defeats the object of In-Service Inspection and Testing.
With GTI as each item is tested the results are recorded in a fully computerised asset inventory which shows not just the current test results but also those of the preceding test periods. This helps to keep track of deterioration and can give some forecast as to when appliances may need attention or replacement in the future.
We have included here a sample electrical testing report which shows the test results from a range of appliances over a period of years.

Captain Younus Khan believes Pakistan can build on their World Twenty20 success when they vie for an elusive Champions Trophy title in South Africa.
Pakistan, who have never won or played in the final of the Champions Trophy since its inception in 1998, face a second-string West Indies in their opening Group A match before crucial games against India and Australia.
Younus, who led Pakistan to the World Twenty20 title in England in June, hopes his team can emulate that feat in one-day cricket.
"Our World Twenty20 win has given us confidence and I think we can build on that success in the Champions Trophy. Maybe there is a difference of overs, but the style remains the same and now a team can chase 350-plus," said Younus.
Pakistan have lost their last three one-day series -- the first against Sri Lanka at home which resulted in Younus taking over from Shoaib Malik -- but Younus said the losses have not dampened spirits.
"The way we lost the one-day series in Sri Lanka, losing the first three matches and then winning the last two with big margins proved that we have the capability to win when we play to our potential.
"We will not take the West Indies lightly, and if we win big against them it will help in our matches against India and Australia. I am confident we can qualify for the semis."
Pakistan also lost 3-2 to Australia in their neutral venue series in the United Arab Emirates in April-May.
Pakistan's 15-man squad prepared extensively for the eight-nation Champions Trophy, with a fitness camp in Lahore and another short batting stint with former great Javed Miandad in Karachi.
Younis and veteran Mohammad Yousuf lead a solid batting line-up with Imran Nazir and Kamran Akmal to open the innings --- a problem for Pakistan batting for several years now.
The middle-order also have explosive Shahid Afridi, Malik, Misbah-ul Haq and the sensational new find Umar Akmal, younger brother of Kamran.
Afridi was Pakistan's star with both bat and ball in the World Twenty20, winning man-of-the match awards in the semi-final and final but his one-day form has been scrappy.
"We have a blend of experience and youth, Umar has given us solidity in the middle-order," said Younus of the 19-year-old who hit a hundred in only his third one-day match against Sri Lanka last month.
Paceman Mohammad Asif's return after a one-year doping ban gives strength to Pakistan bowling line-up.
Asif's return will compensate for Shoaib Akhtar's failure to make the squad due to lack of fitness.
The ever-improving duo of Umar Gul and Rana Naved-ul-Hasan, fast rising Mohammad Aamir and hard working Rao Iftikhar make up a potent bowling attack with Afridi's leg-spin and Saeed Ajmal's off-spin giving variety to the attack.
Younus confident Pakistan can build on T20 success
Captain Younus Khan believes Pakistan can build on their World Twenty20 success when they vie for an elusive Champions Trophy title in South Africa.

Arrow function expressions were definitely a great addition in ES6 and thanks to tools like babel the new syntax has been quite widely adopted. Besides more concise syntax, an interesting thing about arrow function expressions is that they preserve the context, i.e. they don't define their own
this, which was sometimes annoying and resulted in assigning
that or
self variables to keep the outer context that could be referred inside functions. As great as it sounds, arrow function expressions cannot be used in all cases. One example would be Ember computed properties.
Arrow Function Expressions - A Quick Introduction
Let's start with a quick introduction to arrow functions. Before ES6, anytime we were using function expressions and wanted to refer
this from outer context, we had to do some workarounds which are (arguably) a bit unnatural, especially comparing to other major programming languages.
Let's do some pseudo-object-oriented programming with JavaScript (ES5) to illustrate a possible issue with function expressions:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
We have a simple class-like functionality using constructor function and prototype to implement
Order with some questionable ( ;) ) way of assigning id and some
items. We can add more items with
Order.prototype.addItem function and we can log them with
Order.prototype.logItems function.
But there's a problem:
logItems function doesn't log
id, but logs
undefined instead. Why is that?
Function expressions create their own context and define own
this, so it no longer refers to the outer context, which is the
order instance. There are several ways to solve this problem.
The most obvious is to assign outer
this to some other variable, like
that or
1 2 3 4 5 6
You can also pass outer
this as a second argument to
forEach function:
1 2 3 4 5
You can even explicitly
bind outer
this to callback argument inside
forEach function:
1 2 3 4 5
All these solutions work, but aren't really that clean. Fortunately, since ES6, we can use
arrow function expressions which preserve outer context and don't define own
this. After little refactoring
Order.prototype.logItems could look like this:
1 2 3 4 5
Much Better!
As great as it looks like, it may not be a good idea to apply arrow function expressions everywhere, especially for Ember computed properties.
Ember Computed Properties And Arrow Functions? - Not A Good Idea
Recently I was doing some refactoring in one Ember app. The syntax in one of the models was a bit mixed and there were some function expressions and arrow function expressions which looked a bit like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
So I decided ES6-ify entire syntax here and ended up with the following code:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
And how did this refactoring end up? Well, instead of a proper
fullName I was getting
undefined undefined! That was surprising, but then I looked at the changes and saw that I'm using arrow function expressions in computed properties and referring there to
this, which won't obviously work for the reasons mentioned before. So what are the options for computed properties?
The first one would be to simply use good ol' function expressions:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
But if you don't really like it, you may define explicit getter:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
And the last option, my preferred one: unleashing the power of ES7 decorators and using ember-computed-decorators addon. That way we could define
fullName computed property in the following way:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
which looks just beautiful ;).
Wrapping Up
Even though arrow function expressions are very convenient to use, they can't be used interchangeably with function expressions. Sometimes you may not want
this inside a function to preserve outer context, which is exactly the case with Ember computed properties.

Trend survey on business situation among DIB member companies
The biotechnology industry is confident for 2014
For the present year 2014, the biotechnology companies in Germany are expecting moderate turnover growth. Roughly 50 % of companies want to expand their research and investment activities. This forecast by DIB (the German association of biotechnology industries) excludes plant biotechnology, because of the limitations to this sector's innovative potential in Germany.

State Rep. Bill DeWeese was a mere "figurehead" and didn't really run the House Democratic Caucus when he was minority leader, a former investigator hired by DeWeese told a Dauphin County jury this morning.
William Chadwick, a former state inspector general, said he was hired by DeWeese to investigate and try to restore the caucus' public image after the so-called Bonusgate scandal erupted in 2007.
Chadwick was the first defense witness called by defense attorney William Costopoulos during the fifth day of DeWeese's trial on charges that DeWeese had state-payed employees do election work on state time from 2001 to 2006.
His investigation showed that then-Minority Whip Mike Veon and DeWeese's chief of staff, Michael Manzo, actually ran the caucus, Chadwick said.
Veon and Manzo both were caught up in Bonusgate, which involved the caucus giving employees state-paid bonuses for political work. Veon is serving a prison term. Manzo, who testified against DeWeese last week, has pleaded guilty and is awaiting sentencing in Bonusgate.
Chadwick said his investigation showed that the caucus was "out of control" and that public and political work was intermixed.
"It was a very mushy environment," he said under questioning by Senior Deputy Attorney General Kenneth Brown. "The rules weren't clear. People weren't following them...There was evidence of campaign activity all over the place."
Overall, the caucus was run "negligently," Chadwick said, and DeWeese supported his recommendations to make its operations comply with the law. He said his firm was paid $1.7 million for its two years of work for the caucus.
Kenneth Finnell, DeWeese's driver, said he repeatedly heard DeWeese tell staffers not to do political work on the taxpayers' dime.

The announcement of Tengai Makyo Ziria: Harukanaru Jipang for the Xbox 360 was one of Microsoft's biggest surprises from last week's Xbox Summit. A remake of the 1989 PC Engine CD-ROM Tengai Makyo debut title, little was revealed on the Xbox 360 version, except for a trailer showcasing new 3D visuals and lots of animation.
Featured in the latest Famitsu Xbox is a two page look at the game, with a few new details. While the Xbox 360 version will retain all the main characters, including Ziria, Shinade and Orochimaru, publisher Hudson and developer Red Entertainment are redoing the story telling side of the game completely.
The game's battle system will also see a huge update, as suggested by the Xbox Summit trailer. Your characters will enter battle directly as they move about on the fields of play. We can count on dynamic camera work, which is something that was impossible with the battles in the original, since they were flat.
Hudson has yet to announce a release period for Tengai Makyo Ziria. Also, because we're sure you're wondering, the game has yet to be announced for stateside release.

ONE of Yorkshire's obesity blackspots is launching a drive to get children and their parents to eat more healthily.
Hull Council is launching a pilot nutrition programme which aims to teach youngsters and adults skills to embed health eating habits into their daily lives.
According to new figures, nearly 20,000 children in Yorkshire and the Humber leave primary school overweight or obese.
Hull and Bradford, along with Redcar and Cleveland and Middlesbrough, have the highest numbers, with 36 per cent of the 10-to-11 age group - 970 children in Hull alone - weigh too much, increasing their risk of heart disease as they grow older.
Nearly three-quarters of the city's primary schools will be taking part in the three-year project, being delivered by the Soil Association, at a cost of £60,000.
The Whole School Food and Nutrition Programme will involve cooking classes, farm and allotment visits to understand food origins, education around healthy eating and cooking and a focus on increasing fruit and vegetable consumption.
As part of the three-year project, 50 specialist volunteers will be trained to deliver 'cook and eat' sessions and 50 training sessions will be delivered to school staff.
Coun Rosie Nicola, portfolio holder for Learning, Skills and Safeguarding Children, said she hoped children would teach their parents skills they'd picked up at school in the same way youngsters taught adults about recycling.
She said: "We seem to have lost the generation of people with the mentality to cook their own food from scratch."
The latest scheme is one of a number of measures aimed at improving the quality of food eaten by the city's youngsters.
The cost of dinners for primary schoolchildren was slashed in July 2014 to just 50p. Nearly every primary school offers a breakfast club, while brunch clubs opened in two city primaries, Foredyke and Longhill during October's half term to ensure children are getting at least one square meal during holidays. In next month's half-term the programme will be extended to four schools.
Coun Nicola agreed "that we shouldn't have to be doing this in the 21st century" but said: "We have to take steps as a city council otherwise there are cohorts of children who will not have a level playing field educationally."
After three years the nutrition programme will be evaluated against a set of targets - including children who don't have a hot meal having a "nutritionally improved" packed lunch.
Coun Helena Spencer, portfolio holder for Public Health, Prevention and Safeguarding Adults, said: "We aim to get both children and their parents actively participating in sessions where specially trained staff and volunteers teach them how to cook healthy meals, ensuring that good habits learnt in school can be reinforced at home. "
The British Heart Foundation is calling on the Government to ban all junk food TV advertising after revealing that children were being bombarded by junk food adverts during popular shows like the X Factor.
Weak regulation was blamed for adverts for up to four adverts for high-saturated fat and salt pizzas being shown during every 30-minute episode of Hollyoaks, which is sponsored by Domino's Pizza. Eighteen organisations including the BHF are also calling for a 20 per cent tax on sugary drinks.

[Editor's Note: Here you will find the other Books I've Been Avoiding: Overlooked or Over-hyped? columns.]
Blissful Ignorance or the Soul-Crushing Despair of Knowledge: You Decide
So I'm assuming you're a reader -- otherwise you're not terribly likely to be reading this column on a web site dedicated primarily to reviewing books. You're probably a person who loves books, maybe even as much as I do. Well hello there, and welcome to my new column on books. Now I'm going to crush your soul in seconds flat. Don't believe I can do it? Read the following short paragraph, really think about it, and you will be a quivering, jellied mass of despair. If you want to avoid soul-crushing anguish, skip ahead. I seriously recommend you skip ahead. Really, I mean it. This is your final warning: do not read the next paragraph; choose blissful ignorance instead.
Abandon All Hope Ye Who Read Here
OK, if you really insist on desolation and despair, here it is: how many books do you read each year? Realistically, how many more years do you expect to live? A quick calculation will result in what can only be the shockingly low number of books you will read before you die. Think about it for a moment, and despair.
You had to know, didn't you. Well don't blame me for your insatiable curiosity. I'm just the messenger. A couple of years ago, a misguided friend thought he was doing me a favour by using this evil argument to dissuade me from reading anything but really good books. Having had my heart and soul compressed into a soggy wad and tossed into the gutter, I thought I would share the love. (You're welcome.) Quick calculation, and bye-bye happiness. Forever. Because, like Adam and Eve, once you have the knowledge, the innocence can never be regained.
OK, so now you have to move on and deal with your lost innocence. Now you have to make some hard choices. First choice: you can wallow in your despair. Not a good option. It can get messy, it won't really make you feel better, and everyone around you will eventually get fed up and leave you to your pathetically self-indulgent wallowing. Option two, you can increase your lifespan, thereby increasing the time you have to read and, by corollary, the number of books you can read before your ultimate demise. Not a bad option if you can pull it off, but it's a long term goal that can be difficult to attain. Also, it may require a diet and fitness regime that could curb your enjoyment of your unnaturally long lifespan and, irony of ironies, cut into your reading time. It may therefore prove to be self-defeating. Third option, you can read more. This is probably your best option, although it may put your eyesight at some risk, and if you are not careful could have an impact on your relationships, your job, or your capacity to ever again find your way home from the library.
You may be wondering how you could possibly read more. I'm pretty sure you can do it. Television, video games, sleep -- all of these activities can cut deeply into your reading time. It's all a matter of prioritizing.
All this to say that no matter how many books you read, there will always be many more that you will not read. By simply spending more time reading, I've managed to whittle down my stack of volumes waiting to be read to a mere 420 or so books. Plus all the ones I haven't bought yet. But some of those 420-odd books have been there for years. Last year, I decided I would take an even dozen of those I had been avoiding for years and read one each month. In this way, I managed to get through Dante's Divine Comedy (the John Ciardi translation -- his footnotes are invaluable), Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe, James Joyce's Ulysses, Darwin's On the Origin of Species, William James' Varieties of Religious Experience, and other classics of literature and non-fiction.
The Matter at Hand: To Quest for Elfland or Hide in Trembling Fear from the Scary Monsters
This year, I decided to target the classics of science fiction and fantasy that I've been avoiding. And in my continuing endeavour to read more, I thought why not make it two books each month instead of just one -- all in addition to my regular reading, of course. But for the sake of variety, I've got two stacks on my "waiting to be read" shelf for this particular project: a dozen classics of science fiction and fantasy, and a dozen more obscure titles that I've also been avoiding and have several times rescued from the annual household garage sale. It's time to check out these overlooked or (possibly) over-hyped books and test their mettle.
Well, what a convoluted way to say "He was illiterate," which was all the story required at that point. But on the other hand, notice the hauntingly beautiful imagery conjured by this single sentence -- it says so vastly much more than simply "He was illiterate." You'll also notice the structure of the sentence, the order of the words. The whole book is deliberately written in this simulated archaic style to make it seem like it's a tale of long ago -- like a genuine fairy tale.
The story is simple: the people of Erl want to be ruled by a magic lord, so the king sends his son Alveric to Elfland to win the King of Elfland's daughter for his bride. Boy meets girl, love happens, boy steals girl away from her father and his magical realm and returns to reign in Erl. They, in their turn, have a son. Eventually the Elf King's daughter returns (magically) to Elfland, which the King of Elfland withdraws from the mundane world. Alveric undertakes a life-long quest to find Elfland once more and be reunited with his wife. Meanwhile, their son Orion grows up and rules Erl in his father's absence. He is a bit magic, which rather scares the people of Erl who now decide maybe they were better off before they had a magic lord after all. There's just no pleasing some folks.
So, we've got a romantic love between man and elf-maid, defiance of a powerful father for that love, and finally the lifelong quest to regain the lost bride -- all this sounds like a potent romance story, and it's a significant chunk of the plot (note the title). And yet, I never really feel the passion I'm informed of in this book. In his attempt to emulate traditional fairy tales, Dunsany may have done his job too well. I've read a lot of fairy tales, and frequently they toss in things that don't really make a lot of sense and just expect you to go along with it. I'm told that Alveric and Lirazel (the daughter of the Elf King) have this undying love, but I never really feel it.
On the other hand, Dunsany is capable of brilliant character treatment. When Orion recruits trolls from Elfland to be in charge of his hunting hounds, there's a whole chapter dedicated to Lurulu the troll discovering the enigma of the world that is not Elfland. Here's a little guy who never before experienced time flowing; in Elfland nothing changes, but now he finds himself in a strange land where night follows day and so on. Furthermore, poor Lurulu is a little mystified that most birds and animals can't understand him when he speaks to them. It's an absolutely inspired depiction of alien first contact, and it's handled with delicate compassion.
The thing that really struck me, though, was Alveric's quest for Elfland.
He'd go to people and say (in much more flowery language) where's Elfland
gone to? And they'd just look at him blankly or blink stupidly. So
he'd say You know, that place that used to be just east of here? Where is it? And they'd say, Oh,
if you go north from here you'll find such, and if you go south you'll find this other place, and if you go west
you get to somewhere else. It was like they couldn't even bear to think about what they didn't want to
believe in. I find people are frequently very much like that.
Dakin is a young drummer boy from London, and a fresh recruit for this adventure. The Cockatrice train chugs along to Manchester, fighting monsters all the way, where Dakin's prescient cousin Sauna is rescued from a creepy old aunt. Then they get orders to head up to Scotland to track down the source of the monster invasion.
...Y'know, I'm not sure a plot summary is going to do justice to this book, so I'll abandon my attempt to tell you what it's about and instead tell you what I thought of it. First of all, I think the UK marketing had it right: this is clearly a YA novel, even though the US Tor edition calls it "Aiken's first adult fantasy novel." If you know from the outset that this is an outrageous lie, and as long as you have no objection to YA fiction, then you'll be better equipped to enjoy this book. Because it is an enjoyable book, if somewhat flawed. It's funny, and creepy, and odd, and frightening. There are several elements that don't make sense if you pause to think about it. My recommendation is don't pause. Just hop on the Cockatrice express and enjoy the mad ride.
Among the moon-sized holes in the plot is the following: the monster invasion has only affected Britain. So even if you try to just go along with the story and not think too hard about it, you may find yourself wondering why the English don't just get the hell out of England. I lived in London for a year and I often wondered that about the English. Particularly in London, an awful proportion of the population (those who are struggling to earn a living) seemed absolutely miserable most of the time they were sober. I was only in England for a year, absolutely miserable almost all of the time since I couldn't even afford to get drunk very often. But for me there was a light at the end of the tunnel because I knew that, once my wife was finished school, we would have options: we could stay and make a better go of it (since the two of us could then be earning money instead of just me) or we could go elsewhere. In the end, we chose the second option and ended up back in Canada where we've lived in comparative opulence ever since. When I lived in London and spoke to the English, I was surprised at how many of them told me they utterly despised living in England and were desperate to go and live somewhere -- anywhere -- else. I would say to them, so why don't you? And they would just look at me blankly or blink stupidly.
I don't mean to pick on the English. It's also true that wherever I've been when I was travelling, people would always say to me, I wish I could just pick up and travel like that. My inevitable answer: then why don't you? And I always receive the same reaction. Blank stares.
Paradiso Regained
So to come back to what I was talking about earlier, if you did read the soul-crushing paragraph and if you're actually beginning to feel that black hole of despair, then believe me when I tell you that you actually can read more. And who knows, maybe it will even help you live longer, or at the very least keep your mind active enough that you'll still be able to appreciate your later years.
It's like my friend Chris says about dancing to Led Zeppelin: you actually can dance to Led Zeppelin; you just have to want to badly enough. So please don't blink stupidly when I tell you that you can read more; Elfland can be as real as you want it to be. You just have to want to get there badly enough.

text: Home » News » iPhones get turned into musical instruments iPhones get turned into musical instruments Stuart Davidson December 4, 2009 News Apples iPhone has been a huge success for the computer giant with continual growing sales across the globe. The latest story involving their use comes from the University of Michigan where students are using them to design and play instruments … with their first public performance scheduled in for the 9th of December. The course behind all this is called "Building a Mobile Phone Ensemble" and it is the first worldwide being taught by George Essl, a computer scientist and musician who has a resume of working on developing both musical instruments and mobile phones. Essl and his team began using the microphone as a wind sensor a few years ago which helped to found the creation of such iPhone applications as the widely downloaded "Ocarina" – which turn the iPhone into a wind instrument. "The mobile phone is a very nice platform for exploring new forms of musical performance," he said. "We're not tethered to the physics of traditional instruments. We can do interesting, weird, unusual things. This kind of technology is in its infancy, but it's a hot and growing area to use iPhones for artistic expression. The touch-screen, microphone, GPS, compass, wireless sensor and accelerometer can all be transformed so that when you run your finger across the display, blow air into the mic, tilt or shake the phone, for example, different sounds emanate." Its a very interesting concept and we hope to have a reporter at the performance next week. Share On

When I built Paludarium 1.0, I was positive on having solved the water poisoning by not using potting soil anywhere in the landmass. As it turns out, the plants on land rot away leaves and build their own soil inside. Very nice for the plants, not so nice for the fish inside. since the water streams through the soil, it picks up a lot of chemicals that aren't very healthy for the fish in the aquatic part.

Lusty Leo packs a fat girth with a gentle insertable length. He'll definitely help open you up wide before he pushes you over the edge. Best of all, when you've reached the point of no return you can squeeze his balls to shoot a load of hot liquid gushing into you.
We recommend filling it with lube. If he starts to rub you raw, you can squirt a little pre-cum to smooth things.

Let's face it; Ferrari has a presence in the automotive industry that not many other companies have. Sure, there are the Lamborghini's and the Masserati's, but there can only be one Ferrari.
To mark the company's long history in the US, they (of course) held a big, star studded event to celebrate and show of the car they designed specifically to commemorate the occasion.
On Saturday night, the who's who of Hollywood, the automotive industry and top Ferrari execs got together at the Beverley Hills Town Hall in California to celebrate 60 years of Ferrari sales in the US.
The event was also the stage for the new Ferarri F60 America to be shown off. The car was specially designed for the anniversary and is a really beautiful car. It took centre stage at the vent where its stood at the entrance, basking in the glory of the (several) spotlights focused on the car. (more…)
Ferrari never ceases to amaze us. There is just something about this legendary automaker that makes us go weak at the knees – and we're pretty sure they know that they have this effect on a lot of people.
The latest creation to come out of the Ferrari garage is undoubtedly one of their finest. In terms of design, looks and power, the Ferrari 458 Special A is absolutely gorgeous – and finally t has been revealed in all it's Italian glory.
After leaked images of the car appeared all over the internet this past week, Ferrari decided that it was time the world was officially introduced to their new baby (well, really they didn't have a choice after it spread like wildfire through the internet).
So, ladies and gentlemen, here it is, the all new Ferrari 458 Speciale A. (more…)
