An adventure game is a video game in which the player assumes the role of protagonist in an interactive story driven by exploration and puzzle-solving instead of physical (e.g. reflexes) challenge. The genre's focus on story allows it to draw heavily from other narrative-based media such as literature and film, encompassing a wide variety of literary genres. Nearly all adventure games (text and graphic) are designed for a single player, since this emphasis on story and character makes multi-player design difficult.

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
I have run the gui version of the tool and entered my server details, but clicking on "Get ChangeSets" button does nothing. I just have "ROOTPLACEHOLDER" listed in the left hand pane.
Some background:
ROOTPLACEHOLDER is just a kind of place holder object that I had in the tree view to show all the branches below it. In TFS, It's possible to have many root branches and I thought having ROOTPLACEHOLDER on top of all the branches will show nice tree hierarchy
Get Changeset works against Branches only. It does not work against folders as there could be a large collection of folders in your project hierarchy and for large TFS projects this will be a big overhead to show everything in a huge tree view. This was
the main reason why we decided to keep branch objects as a base for generating changelog / release notes.
Now, it's possible for users to turn individual folder to a branch. For example if you have following heirarchy in your project....
then you can right mouse click on $PROJECTNAME/Main folder >>>> Select Branch and Merge >>> Select Convert to Branch option. This way you are differentiating standard folder to a branch object.
After converting to a Branch object, you can run TFSChangeLog application which will allow you to select Main within Branch Hierarchy tree view and you will be able to see all the changelog within that branch.
I hope this answers your question.
Best Regards,
Dharmesh Shah
Thanks for the detailed response Dharmesh. I'll come back to this when I review my usage of branches in TFS

Fujifilm Instax Mini vs Polaroid Snap
The Polaroid lives, and people (especially kids) love them! In an age where every picture can be instantly posted to Instagram or Facebook, Polaroids are just as immediate, but they're also physical. You can put them on your fridge or wall and instantly share them with friends. We review the two most popular instant cameras: the Polaroid Snap ($100, http://sdp.io/snap) and Fujifilm Instax Mini 70 ($125, http://sdp.io/mini70). They both make great gifts!


text: mate of mine (saints supporter) is flogging his tickets at face value. $105 each. I want to do the right thing by him and take all four but dont want to get caught short. 2 are definately covered. Ticket 3 is likely taken, just need confirmation. who wants last and who wants first crack at tcket 3 should my mate pull out. Again no one making a profit. simply trying to get tickets into the hands of those that will get most enjoyment

text: The Effects of Short-Term Propofol and Dexmedetomidine on Lung Mechanics, Histology, and Biological Markers in Experimental ObesityBarros Heil, Luciana Boavista MD; Santos, Cíntia L.

MD, PhDAnesthesia & Analgesia: April 2016 - Volume 122 - Issue 4 - p 1015–1023 doi: 10.1213/ANE.0000000000001114 Anesthetic Pharmacology: Research Report Abstract In Brief Author Information BACKGROUND: Administering anesthetics to the obese population requires caution because of a variety of reasons including possible interactions with the inflammatory process observed in obese patients. Propofol and dexmedetomidine have protective effects on pulmonary function and are widely used in short- and long-term sedation, particularly in intensive care unit settings in lean and obese subjects. However, the functional and biological effects of these drugs in obesity require further elucidation. In a model of diet-induced obesity, we compared the short-term effects of dexmedetomidine versus propofol on lung mechanics and histology, as well as biological markers of inflammation and oxidative stress modulation in obesity. METHODS: Wistar rats (n = 56) were randomly fed a standard diet (lean) or experimental diet (obese) for 12 weeks. After this period, obese animals received sodium thiopental intraperitoneally and were randomly allocated into 4 subgroups: (1) nonventilated (n = 4) for molecular biology analysis only (control); (2) sodium thiopental (n = 8); (3) propofol (n = 8); and (4) dexmedetomidine (n = 8), which received continuous IV administration of the corresponding agents and were mechanically ventilated (tidal volume = 6 mL/kg body weight, fraction of inspired oxygen = 0.4, positive end-expiratory pressure = 3 cm H2O) for 1 hour. RESULTS: Compared with lean animals, obese rats did not present increased body weight but had higher total body and trunk fat percentages, airway resistance, and interleukin-6 levels in the lung tissue (P = 0.02, P = 0.0027, and P = 0.01, respectively). In obese rats, propofol, but not dexmedetomidine, yielded increased airway resistance, bronchoconstriction index (P = 0.016, P = 0.02, respectively), tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-6 levels, as well as lower levels of nuclear factor-erythroid 2–related factor-2 and glutathione peroxidase (P = 0.001, Bonferroni-corrected t test). CONCLUSIONS: In this model of diet-induced obesity, a 1-hour propofol infusion yielded increased airway resistance, atelectasis, and lung inflammation, with depletion of antioxidative enzymes. However, unlike sodium thiopental and propofol, short-term infusion of dexmedetomidine had no impact on lung morphofunctional and biological variables.

The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Chapter 1
One day I was bored and wanted to try a build for Ali that was not just for support and tanking, this was for those who love to messing around with the ENEMY! as u can see this is a tank with alot of Ap!
This build makes Alistar a tank that can handle lots of dmg and still make dmg in the teamfight!
I play this build for solotop but works vry good in 2vs2 line also!
In lvl 1 I start with PULVERIZE as a her*** for line and then go for lvl 2-3 HEADBUTT and by lvl 6 i have 2x PULVERIZE 2x HEADBUTT 1x TRIUMPHANT ROAR and ofc 1x UNBREAKABLE WILL then I focus on levling HEADBUTT first and second PULVERIZE and at last lvl up TRIUMPHANT ROAR!
You may here alot of why u dont lvl Roar from team mates but its just becuse you aint the support here u are then Thrasing tank! ( Your enemy will hate you after sometime becuse u are destroying there teamfights!
I always start with Faerie Charm and 2x Health P 1x Mana P.
After that i farm for get Ionian Boots and if u can efford parts for SHEEN or Philosopher's stone!
As you can see on the Purchase List you got alot of items to go for and it aint importat to get them in that line but i always focus to get atleast Inonian boots sheen and mejai's Soulstealer as fast i can do get farm!
As time goes by you will have good enuff of life and res and still have alot of Ap, sure Alistar aint the best dmg dealer in LOL but with his life and res you can beat them all with some skill!
And if you play right the more unskilled enemy will starting focusing you and that will make them lose the fight!
I hope you will like this build as much as I do!
Enjoy "Alifans"

Pavel Bains
It was a joy to talk with Pavel Bains, founder of a new iPad app for children called Storypanda. There are so many interesting facets to Pavel, whether it's his love for some old school music like New Jack Swing, his work experience at Disney Interactive and for a Vancouver restaurant group or the many lessons sports taught him about competition and how it honed his own competitive spirit. Pavel loves competing in this game of life and a couple minutes on the phone with him exposed his enthusiasm and I think I've been infected. That's a good thing. I hope you can catch some of his start up spirit by merely reading his words. After reading the interview, Pavel would love to read your comments and I bet he'll respond. He's just that kind of guy.

Roger Dickey
Weeks in the making, this interview is filled with inspiration and insight from one of the most creative people I've ever met. Roger has been writing code since the fifth grade. He sold an app company to Zynga in 2006. He is now out on his own, finding startup companies he believes can be the next big thing. He helps many with money, he helps others with advice. Roger Dickey is a man who is leaving his mark on Silicon Valley. If you have a chance to catch Roger at a conference near you, get in there, listen, take notes and heed his advice to create, create, create. Enjoy this interview. I hope you get a glimpse of Roger Dickey that you may not have seen in other interviews you've read or watched online. I am in the process of having an article based on this interview published, so a few of my original questions have been omitted for that reason. I'll update this post when that article is published

Bringing Politics Back To Our Communities
The Communities United Party (CUP) objectives is to present a unity in diversity for change and progress in the face of a political climate in which many individuals feel at best disillusioned and at worst betrayed by previous governments. CUP is very impatient to apply the "new thinking" that will end the chaos and sterility of the Conservative /Lib Dem Coalition & Labour for over 18 years. Much of the manifesto deals with the vital social issues, Immigration, NHS, Employment, Crime, Foreign Affairs that affect the personal lives and happiness of us all, the welfare of our Communities and the immediate future of our families/children
A principal objective of the party is to eradicate social injustice that permeates in today's society. The problems faced by our citizens are far reaching and in their multiplicity range from discrimination to homelessness, debt, domestic violence and various aspects of unfair treatment. There is an imperative need to look for urgent solution to societal problems by involving the communities in decision making in British polity. The soaring prices electricity; making living wage mandatory, Social security benefits which have fallen below the minimum levels of human need;
Such problems, if unresolved, invariably lead to mental health issues, personal violence, loss of employment, loss of income, loss of home and loss of self confidence and identity. The Communities United Party recognises a person's right to life, security and their voices to be heard as the very tenants of their human rights. The Communities United Party aims to return the vote to the voter enabling the people's true voice to be heard and have a real influence in the decision making process that effects their lives. Its message being in unity lies strength. The Party seeks to bring accountability whilst in government and rebuild the trust of the people lost through abuse of power, position and false promises aimed at merely securing the vote as opposed to acting in the public interest.
Promote transparency in government
Stop the forcibly imposed parking charges within our communities.
Addressing the issue of excessive rates for small businesses..
Reforming the electoral system & introducing proportional representation.
A review of the 'Council Tax' legislation.
Introduce Free University education for all – as it is the case in Germany where free education is a constitutional right.
End Zero Contract
Controlled Immigration
Environmental protection
Increase Funding For the NHS
CUP Working For Our Community
The Communities United Party consists of staff who work tirelessly to ensure that people gain access to justice that they are entitled to by right and not merely by privilege of birth. The Party has a legal arm, KM Legal Advisory, which offers free legal advice and consultation in: Human Rights, Landlords & Tenants, Employment, Education, Crime and Immigration law.
The Communities United Party fervently believes that the strength of democracy lies with the people and each day we endeavour to restore such a premise to its natural seat. We have, in recent years, witnessed the distortion of this political ideology utilised by leaders who have failed to serve in the interest of those in who have placed a trust and confidence. The first step in this direction is through our advocacy for a reform of the voting system in favour of the Alternative Voting System at local as well as national level. This is aim at enabling the political aspirations of voters to be reflected in Parliament and to restore accountability to the people.
The Communities United Party uphold the real prospect of maintaining sustainable communities in the face of its fragmentation precipitated by the Coalition Government disbanding of vital services as part of its cut of public sector budgets. The resultant increased unemployment lends itself to social breakdown as many struggle to make ends meet.
Both the past and present government have played their part in turning the dreams of many prospective teachers, nurses, lawyers, doctors and engineers into the stark reality of lack of fulfilment and mass unemployment creating a lost generation. What has been viewed as the right of all is now deemed a privilege for the elite as parents now pay the price for the aspirations of their children through the introduction of increased college fees: yet another of the coalition government's empty election promises.
We have seen the legacy of the Labour government in the so named 'Future Academies' evidence of the government failure to address the real problem with falling educational standard inner city schools. The Communities United Party recognise that achievement is in the substance and not the form and merely throwing taxpayers money at failing schools, devaluing the wealth of knowledge and skills of experienced educators and replacing this with the less expensive newly qualified teacher for whom, for some, the profession was an option due to financial incentive rather than true vocation.
The Communities United Party aims to restore the value system in schools in order to raise achievement in real terms and not simply massaging exam result percentages that mislead parents and disappoint pupils. The Party advocates inclusive education reflective of every child's fundamental right to learn in a safe and secure environment in order to reach their fullest potential and, most importantly, develop the qualities of real citizens who make a valued contribution to society.
Perhaps the most immediate and pressing educational matter is glass ceiling education system now implemented which fuels an entire lost generation of: doctors; lawyers, teachers, vets, media producers , as education is now defined by the balance of your account as opposed to the content of your mind. The Communities United Party aims to break that glass ceiling and challenge what is clearly a two tier system that is utterly unjust.
Our country's "investment in people" is still tragically inadequate. The nation needs and CUP will carry through a revolution in our educational system. ( CUP will cut down our overcrowded classes in both primary and secondary schools. CUP will grant to the universities and colleges of advanced technology the funds necessary for maintaining research standards in a period of rapid student expansion.
The Communities United Party addresses the real problems faced by our changing society. How do we address the increasing problem of unemployment, particularly amongst the young? How are real opportunities for employment created? It seems ironic that within a community termed one of the United Kingdom's most deprived boroughs there is a vision for future growth and commercial development through the new gateway to Europe and the forthcoming Olympics. However, the message from the government is not one of sustainable communities, job creation or capacity building but to patronise through social development initiatives: affordable housing, new schools and health centres.
The UK London has a rich history of diverse communities and commercial activity that can be revived. The economic revival of our Communities, in line with the
government forecast of Britain's economic growth, through harnessing local resources and matching skill to opportunity in order to create a clear direction for development, lies at the heart of The Communities United Party's aim for meeting the challenge of unemployment.
CUP would make sure every community has a neighbourhood police team committed to spending at least 80 per cent of their time on being visible in their neighbourhood, and responding to non-emergency issues within 24 hours. The Communities United Party aim to work collaboratively with the local police to ensure that communities can; determine local policing priorities, take part in neighbourhood police teams meetings and upholding the right of residents to hold senior commanders to account.
We believe in a crime prevention system that puts the victim first in the criminal justice system and based on restorative justice National Victims Service to guarantee all victims of crime and anti-social behaviour sevenday- a-week cover and a named, dedicated worker offering one to- one support through the trial and beyond. The compensation offenders and we will now ensure victims get this payment up front. Identify and fight the causes of crime.
NHS- Health
The Coalition Government has recently U-turned with regards to NHS reforms cuts remain on the agenda despite the so called government 'listening exercise. The reality is that we are seeing not just nurses, but cleaners, doctors and speech therapists' posts being cut. However, if you cut nursing staff it will ultimately cost more money at the expense of reduced standards of care.
The Coalition government's plans are to reform the NHS by handing control of much of the NHS budget to GPs in the hope that greater competition will be encouraged with the private sector. However, such plans have been met with huge opposition whilst the bill is still being passed through Parliament. In addition to the government being forced last week to effectively re-open the consultation process after mounting criticism of its proposals, the Minister for Health has received unanimous vote of no confidence from the Royal College of Nursing. Such a turnaround against a wave of opposition simply proves one thing; this government
is self serving and does not serve in the interest of the people who have sanctioned their authority. Unless a continued and united stand is taken the many will certainly suffer at the hands of the few. Since then it has been starved of resources and has failed to adapt sufficiently to modern needs. Serious shortages of hospital staff mean long delays in obtaining treatment. Shortages of general practitioners mean long waits in overcrowded surgeries. Local services for the handicapped and the elderly are severely handicapped by lack of staff. Every part of the hospital service is impaired by outdated premises. As a result of this neglect the patient has suffered – in spite of the efforts of medical staffs. CUP will put the patient first.
CUP will review the whole plan on the basis of a full assessment of local needs and provide the necessary finance to carry the plan through. In particular the plan must ensure that every women who wishes to, or needs to, have her baby in hospital shall be able to do so. CUP will greatly increase the number of qualified medical staff. We shall train more doctors and dentists both by increasing the number of students admitted to existing medical schools and by establishing new medical schools. We shall devote more resources to medical research.
CUP fully back the Royal College of Physicians five-point plan for our Health Service
Remove the financial and structural barriers to joined-up care for patients
"it should be easier for hospitals, GPs and social care teams to work together than separately." They note a number of current barriers to joined-up care which the next government must address. They state that: potential barriers to collaboration such as mergers and tendering should be removed; leadership should be joined-up through involving GPs in trust boards and increasing secondary care involvement in service planning; innovative models of integration should be promoted; the use of shared outcomes should become the norm; payment systems should be reformed with payments made patient-centred; and the use of electronic patient records based on common record standards should be promoted.
Invest now to deliver good care in the future
Improved efficiency and reconfiguration are not enough to balance the books and "a crisis in care can only be avoided by a significant increase in health funding." A transformation fund to enable the development of new models of care. Additional money is also required for building bed capacity, improving medical education and training, investment in research and investment in the health and wellbeing of staff.
Prioritise what works in the NHS and improve what doesn't
Advocate a long-term planning approach to change, looking at a 10-year, cross-party vision for the NHS in all decision making. Politicians should be supportive of service changes where they are clinically led and evidence-based. A national programme for sharing good practice is proposed.
Promote public health through evidence-based legislation
Focus on prevention and the promotion of wellness, rather than just treating illness. This should come through national leadership, giving public health leaders stronger powers to hold decision makers to account, building professional coalitions around major public health challenges and regulation of industry involvement in policy making. National leadership should also address inequality and national action should be taken on tobacco, alcohol and obesity.
Adopt the Future Hospital model as a template for service redesign
Promote their radical new model, which aims to address the changing needs and demands placed on the modern health service. They argue that use of the model will remove barriers to specialist care, prioritise patient experience, recovery and self-management and allow improvements in end of life care.
Climate change is today – a threat in itself to our survival as a species and a warning of more general ecological collapse. The evidence from Copenhagen suggests that mainstream governments just haven't grasped the nature and scale of the changes that need to be made, from massive investments in energy saving, to green technologies and infrastructure, to transfers of funds to developing countries. Human-made climate change is an unprecedentedly serious threat to our welfare.
The mainstream political parties will have you believe that it's just an isolated problem. But it's not. It's a sign of what's to come unless we get our planetary home in order. We know that every person, every community, every country has a carbon footprint that contributes to climate change. And we know that those with big footprints – the wealthy and those with extravagant lifestyles – have to make them smaller.
The scale of economic activity has taken us dangerously beyond what the planet can bear if it is to continue to support flourishing human and other life, and population growth only makes things worse. That is why climate change is more than an
isolated threat – it is a warning of the catastrophic social and environmental consequences of business as usual. The failure of the Copenhagen Conference makes it more obvious than ever that finding a global solution to climate change is not just a technical and economic issue. The solution must also involve justice on a global scale, equity and interdependence. And it is an area where the UK should play a leading role in the EU and at international level to secure a fair, ambitious and binding deal. We support the Contraction and Convergence framework for mitigating climate change. Under such a system all countries would eventually converge on the same low emissions per capita. Rich countries would need to contract to that level quickly, while poorer countries would contract much more slowly to that level, or in a few cases expand to meet it.
Under that scenario, and to avoid warming exceeding 2°C, the UK needs to adopt an initial annual carbon dioxide emissions reduction target of around 10 per cent, with the aim of reducing emissions by 90 per cent from 1990 levels by 2030, and 65 per cent by 2020 – starting now.
The first requirement is to end the competitive scramble for building land. CUP will therefore set up a Land Commission to buy, for the community, land on which building or rebuilding is to take place. Instead of paying the inflated market prices that have now reached exorbitant levels, the Crown Land Commission will buy the land at a price based on its existing use value plus an amount sufficient to cover any contingent losses by the owner, and to encourage the willing sale of land. The Crown Land Commission will not, of course, acquire land which continues to be used for agriculture, nor will it purchase the freehold of existing houses and other buildings so long as they remain in their existing use.
As a result of public acquisition, building land can be made available at cheaper prices; although the land will remain in public ownership, new owner-occupied houses built upon it will remain, under the new "Crownhold" system, the absolute property of their owners as long as the house stands.
Planning For A New Communities
We offer no easy solution to our national problems. Time and effort will be required before they can be mastered. But CUP has a philosophy and a practical programme which is relevant to our contemporary needs. The starting point is our belief that the community must equip itself to take charge of its own destiny and no more Nanny State.
CUP does not accept that democracy is a five-yearly visit to the polling booth that changes little but the men at the top. We are working for an active democracy, in which men and women as responsible citizens consciously assist in shaping the surroundings in which they live, and take part in deciding how the community's wealth is to be shared among all its members.
Two giant tasks now await the nation: first, we must energise and modernise our industries – including their methods of promotion and training – to achieve the sustained economic expansion we need; second, we must ensure that a sufficient part of the new wealth created goes to meet urgent and now neglected human needs.
New Prospects for Peace
To stop the spread of nuclear weapons.
To establish nuclear free zones in Africa, Latin America and Central Europe.
To achieve controlled reductions in manpower and arms
To stop the private sale of arms.
To establish an international disarmament agency to supervise a disarmament treaty.

EVENT Manish Arora Spring/Summer 2014 VIP Cocktails
WHERE On Pedder at Joyce, New World Tower, Central
HAPPENINGS: Spring is coming, which means it's time to say goodbye to our heavy and weary - but fashionably safe - coats to make way for brighter, bolder and lighter pieces. One designer who knows colours and prints is designer Manish Arora. He is no stranger to the fashion world, having dressed the likes of international superstars Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Katy Perry.
Unsurprisingly, Hong Kong's own hip fashionistas, including Feiping Chang and Olivia Buckingham, were eager to meet the designer, hailed as "John Galliano of the East", at the special launch party for his spring/summer 2014 pop-up store at On Pedder. Guests mingled with the designer while enjoying snacks and cocktails.
OVERHEARD I love all of Manish Arora's prints. He's simply print-astic.
CHIC CHAT with Manish Arora
Welcome back to Hong Kong. What's your favourite thing about the city?
I love the food on offer, especially fresh seafood and street food. I also like the way people dress up here - everybody makes an effort.
You are obviously very inspired by India and your heritage. Are you inspired by Hong Kong in any way?
All I can say is this: for my next show, there are a lot of Oriental influences.
You introduced backpacks for this spring/summer collection. Do you think they are coming back into vogue?
Backpacks have definitely already made their way back. They are trendy and practical.
You recently won awards for your debut fashion film, Holi Holy. What's next?
I'm hoping to create five-minute microfilms every year based on fashion, but with strong, impactful messages behind them. I already have an idea for my next film.

GPS and Geography: Using Technology to Apply Geography with Middle Grade Students
Miguel Gómez
University of North Carolina at Greensboro
Despite the emphasis on 21st century learning in our schools, the use of technology and the opportunity to think creatively is often lacking in our social studies curriculum. Specifically, opportunities for students to apply the five themes of geography to the world around them is hard to undertake when teaching is primarily conducted via a traditional textbook or supplemented with only audio and visual materials. In order to give students an authentic opportunity to apply the five themes of geography and to build their 21st century learning skills through the use of creative thinking tasks, handheld global positioning system (GPS) devices were introduced to a middle grades classroom. This manuscript documents the steps taken with these handheld GPS devices over the course of a two-week unit on the five themes of geography. Following a detailed explanation of each day's activity, a discussion highlights how the infusion of technology and the opportunity to think creatively created a culture of learning within the classroom.

Does your family have a favorite restaurant? We definitely do. We've celebrated birthdays, baptisms, retirements, graduations, the big things, and the little things at this place. We know the waiters, the bartenders, the managers, and owners. It's really is like walking into our second home. One night (after a lot of wine I'm sure) we ended up with a huge container of their seasoning to take home. It was amazing, and so nice to have a little taste of our favorite place at home!
Now that we are all grown ups (well…that's what we tell ourselves) with jobs, and kids we don't get to go to our place as often. I was never sure when the next time I was going to be able to go grab some seasoning so I decided that I needed to make my own. I can't say that mine tastes exactly the same but it's pretty dang close, and that's good enough for me! I keep a mason jar full in my spice cabinet and put it on everything from roasted potatoes to pizza! I don't want to make this every week so I normally double or triple the recipe.
Seasoning is one of the most important parts of the cooking process and will enhance the flavor of your dishes, so don't be afraid to use that salt and pepper. Quick Rant: If you are seasoning your dishes with table salt, stop. Table salt is too harsh tasting and its tiny grains make it very hard to control the amount you use in your dishes. Rant over!
I keep a salt cellar next to my stove filled with kosher salt that way I have easy access to it when I'm cooking. The one above is not the one I use, but it's beautiful if you are looking to add one to your kitchen! I promise once you make the switch to kosher you will definitely be able to taste the difference in your meals and you won't go back to table salt!
As always let me know if you make and use the seasoning or if you decide to make the switch to kosher salt! Tag me on instagram and use the hashtag #graceandwineeats.
2 Tbsp Kosher Salt
1 Tbsp Coarse Ground Black Pepper
1/2 Tbsp Dried Basil
1/2 Tbsp Dried Parsley
1/2 Tbsp Dried Oregano
1 tsp Dried Thyme
1 tsp Dried Rosemary
1 tsp Red Pepper
1 tsp Sugar
Add all ingredients to a mason jar, a bowl with a lid, or even an old seasoning container.
Close lid and shake to combine.
Use on everything!
It's really important to use kosher salt and coarse ground black pepper in this recipe! I promise if you aren't already using these you will not go back to using regular salt and ground black pepper in your dishes!

Lounge Review: The More Lounge, Terminal 1, Taipei Taoyuan Airport
Cathay Pacific's lounge in Taipei was closed for renovation until 11 November, so earlier this month when I checked in for a Cathay flight I was directed to a shared lounge called "The More". It is located on the way towards the B gates, up one storey – just a few yards along from where the old (and the new) Cathay lounges were.
This is a sizeable lounge with two main parts, next to each other but each with a slightly different style. The style of the lounge is faux Rococo, a bit like one of those KTV palaces or restaurants in Taiwan or a lower tier city in China. At one level this is a bit overwhelming, but it did also give the lounge a lot of character and made it feel more homely than many lounges, so overall I appreciated the decoration despite its gaudiness.
The seats are very comfortable although the tables are a bit low for them. There were also a couple of private rooms passengers could use, which for example if travelling as a family or wanting to have an ad hoc business meeting could be ideal. Plus they had very comfortable looking Chesterfields inside.
The food selection in the lounge was very good. They had a wide range of local Taiwanese foods as well as some western options. There was a noodle bar similar to the one in the Cathay lounge although the bowl of noodles I had here had a bit more variety. There was a freezer with Haagen Dazs ice cream.
The drinks experience was more mixed. There were a decent range of soft drinks, soy milk and the like, with a coffee machine and a draft tap for beer (disappointingly Tsingtao rather than the local brew). The wine choices were shocking, with a "European" appellation and the spirits choices were fair but nothing special, for example Johnnie Walker red label.
The lounge had an excellent array of computers, albeit with seats which would not make it very comfortable to use them.

This Report is prepared in support of open discussion on radiofrequency microwave radiation levels (RF radiation levels) that are produced by wireless electric meters (i.e., smart meters) in California. There has been virtually no information made available to the public, nor to decision-makers on RF radiation levels. Significant unanswered questions still exist about what levels of radiofrequency microwave radiation will be produced by these meters.
This question has very important consequences for public health and welfare, because the public may be subjected to exposures at levels that either violate federal safety limits, or face chronic exposure levels that have already been associated with adverse health impacts, or both.
This Report uses computer modeling to predict power density levels that may be present where smart meters are in operation. The methodology used in this assessment is consistent with FCC OET 65 equations for prediction of RF power density levels. Many scenarios are modeled, to bracket the range of reasonably predictable RF exposures in typical living conditions. Many variables must be considered (installation very close to occupied space, how many meters are installed on a single wall, how frequently they will transmit an RF pulse, how powerful the RF radiation pulses will be, how far inside a home they will penetrate and at what intensities, how much 'piggybacking' of RF signals will occur from neighboring wireless meters, reflections that may increase RF levels, and what amount of RF wireless exposure may already be present beforehand, etc.)
To date, California's electric utilities have told the California Public Utilities Commission only that they will comply with applicable federal safety limits. However, there are substantial discrepancies in what the FCC compliance testing says is needed for wireless meters to comply with their safety limits, and the manner in which many meters are being installed and are operating.
People may use this assessment to further their knowledge about wireless meters, using the tables that predict RF radiation levels, the tables that highlight potential violations of safety limits, and the health study-related tables showing RF radiation levels reported to pose health impacts. Although the authors expect there will be differences of opinion about the content of this report, we believe it will provide a basis for more educated decision-making and full disclosure of impacts.
The Report is not intended to be a substitute for disclosure of RF radiation levels by the CPUC and the electric utilities it regulates. They are responsible to the public to provide reliable and comprehensive information on impacts from wireless meters.
- Olle Johansson, Assoc. Prof.,The Experimental Dermatology Unit, Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institute on CCST Report (Sweden)
"Many smart meters are close to beds, kitchens, playrooms, and similar locations. These wireless systems are never off, and the exposure is not voluntary. The smart meters are being forced on citizens everywhere. Based on this, the inauguration of smart meters with grudging and involuntary exposure of millions to billions of human beings to pulsed microwave radiation should immediately be prohibited until 'the red flag' can be hauled down once and for all."
"I have been involved in review and analysis of studies on electromagnetic fields, including radiofrequency fields, for many years…The evidence for adverse effects of radiofrequency radiation is currently strong and grows stronger with each new study…
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this faulty report, and on the general issue of smart meters. Their use is unwise from both a public health point of view, which is where my expertise lies, but and also from a purely short and long-term economic point of view."
David O. Carpenter, Public Health Physician, (former) Dean of School of Public Health, NYU, Albany, NY, USA
- A Collection of Expert Letters on CCST Report (Sage)
When two of the most central errors are corrected – the failure to take into account duty cycles of cell phones and microwave ovens and the failure to utilize the same units (they should compare everything in terms of average whole body exposure) the cumulative whole body exposure from a Smart Meter at 3 feet appears to be approximately two orders of magnitude higher than that of a
cell phone, rather than two orders of magnitude lower. [emphasis by SMD] (Hirsch)

Identification of Research Needs Relating to Potential Biological or Adverse Health Effects of Wireless Communication (National Academies of Science, 2008)
Nuclear and Radiation Studies Board (NRSB)
The section from the Report entitled "Base Stations" gives a strong statement that all types of workers' exposures as well as exposures to the general public are not addressed in the existing research record.
This section of the report says clearly that the existing research has not studied exposures typical to roof-top workers from real-time, real-life exposures in the workplace where they regularly encounter multiple antenna arrays and multiple frequencies of exposure. Nor does the existing research address antenna base station exposures to members of the public that live in close proximity to the antennas. The Report finds that the studies to date:
assume a single antenna rather than the typical arrangements of four to six antennas
do not pertain to the commonly used multiple-element base station radiators.
The Report goes on to state:
Also, unlike highly localized cell phone RF energy deposition, the base station exposures involve much, if not all, of the body and would have slightly different radiator origins (for multi-element base stations) and may be multi-frequency as well, particularly if several different-frequency base station antennas are co-located. Further more, because of the whole-body resonance phenomenon, the SAR [Specific Absorption Rate] is likely to be higher for shorter individuals due to the closeness of the frequency/frequencies of exposure to the whole-body resonance frequency. In addition to the rapid growth in the number of base stations since 1990, there has also been growth in other sources of RF radiation from cordless phones, wireless computer communications, and other communications systems. The last general survey of RF levels in U.S. cities was during the 1970s, and an updated survey of RF intensities would be useful background for future epidemiologic studies. There are many indoor wireless systems as well as cell phones, which are used both indoors and outdoors. Measurements of the differences in the exposures generated by the use of these devices in these environments will be of value in determining if there are any health effects resulting from exposures to low levels and intermittent sources of RF radiation.
. . . An important research gap is the lack of models of several heights for men, women, and children of various ages for use in the characterization of SAR distributions for exposures characteristics of cell phones, wireless PCs, and base stations.
Presently, there is negligible or relatively little knowledge of local SAR concentration (and likely heating) in close proximity to metallic adornments and implanted medical devices for the human body. Examples include metal rim glasses, earrings, and various prostheses (e.g., hearing aids, cochlear implants, cardiac pacemakers). Research is therefore lacking to quantify the enhanced SARs close to metallic implants and external metallic adornments.
Abstract : …The Scientific Panel recognizes that the body of evidence on EMF requires a new approach to protection of public health; the growth and development of the fetus, and of children; and argues for strong preventative actions. New, biologically-based public exposure standards are urgently needed to protect public health worldwide.

Neural Communication: Weak Electrical Fields in the Brain Help Neurons Fire Together
An "unexpected and surprising finding was how already very weak extracellular fields can alter neural activity," he says. "For example, we observed that fields as weak as one millivolt per millimeter robustly alter the firing of individual neurons, and increase the so-called "spike-field coherence" — the synchronicity with which neurons fire with relationship to the field."In the mammalian brain, we know that extracellular fields may easily exceed two to three millivolts per millimeter. Our findings suggest that under such conditions, this effect becomes significant."

this set is awesome we use it all summer fall and spring people are always asking where I got itRead More
This is an adequate patio table of average quality. My only complaint is that the chairs have such large arms that it makes seating two people side by side inconvenient because the arms take up so much room. Had I realized this before I ordered the table I probably would have made another selection. However, I have had the table two years and it has stood up well.Read More
We received this set last week. The chairs were very easy to assemble, the table a tad more difficult, but all in all not too bad. It is nice and sturdy, and the chair backs are so pretty. The arms are unusual, quite large. The table works best if you use place mats or a tablecloth while dining. There is an umbrella hole which I don't think the product description mentions. You DEFINITELY need seat cushions and perhaps a lumbar pillow with the chairs! Our cushions haven't arrived yet, it is uncomfortable to sit in without cushions. All in all, though, this is such a nice set for the price.Read More
This patio furniture is very sturdy and looked good. It has been sitting outside for over a year now and it looks good still even though the color black is now a matt black. I have it in my garden and stays there rain or shine. We use it as an extended dining area on warm days when eating outside is so welcome.Read More
Product arrived extremely fast, easily assembled, is surdy and well built. Appearance is excellent only minor issues. Large seats (invest in oversize cushions) with sturdy armrest comes in handy for my Dad and Mom when they need a little boost to help them up. Table solid and sturdy accommodates umbrella (currently have 11') did ensure that had a 75lb counter weight under table to protect against sudden wind gust. Satisfied with usage, durability, and appearance thus far. See how it holds up during the winter. Found identical on summer clearance O-stock still beat'em by almost a Ben Franklin.Read More
The patio set was nice when I received it, but two years later, the paint is all coming off to reveal rusted iron. Paint is coming off in great big pieced revealing poor quality of iron used to make the patio furiture. I had to take brush to remove rust then spray each piece several times. Still nice furiture, but did not hold it shape.Read More
I purchased this patio group in April 2008. By June of the same year, the wrought iron had faded from black to dull charcaol. When the furniture arrived it was damaged with dents and major skinned spots. I voiced my concerns and Overstock refunded a large portion of the price back, but by one years exposure in the mountains of western North Carolina the furniture has huge chunks of the black coating and paint coming off. The furniture is extremely rusty and it is embarrassing to think that I paid this much for the quality of furniture that I now have. It visually looks impressive because it is beautiful on my patio but looking closer one is deceived by its beauty. I now have to figure out how to salvage the metal to make it a few more summers of usage. The seats are big and it was easy for me to put together without any help from my husband. If you want something unlike anything in local retail stores buy this, but also invest in lots of paint for the rust.Read More
The only real problem with the outdoor furniture is that it began rusting after the first dampness outside. This necessitated us in giving the new furniture a coating of rust proof paint. The rusting came at the weld points. On the good side, it was easy to construct and arrived on time. The construction is solid. the seats are also wide. It was worth the money paid but not happy about having to rust proof it after arrival.Read More
Each item had one or more rust spots on it due to poor painting.Read More
My first review, ever. Just purchased this 7 piece patio set last week for our patio and and my husband and I are extremely pleased with it. He is not handy with assembly but we were able to put the 6 chairs together in about an hour. So easy, we did not ever have to consult the instructions. (They are in the box with the table.) We had a problem with one screw fitting into the slot, but after loosing one bolt, we got it. The other 5 chairs were a breeze. The table is awesome! But the main thing we love is the appearance, construction and durability. This furniture is heavy with big, deep seats. I give the value 6 stars. I have another wrought iron set for the my deck and and I was worried that this set would look cheap. To my surprise...this set is far superior to the one I paid much more for last year.Read More

Matt LeBlanc Is Returning To TV With Episodes
Matt LeBlanc is coming back to TV with a new series on ShowTime. Episodes stars LeBlanc himself. On the show, the fictional Matt LeBlanc is cast in an American remake of a British series a la The Office.
And thought the show is a comedy, it was no laughing matter for LeBlanc to go back to a series full time a nd sacrifice time with his family.
"There was a few network shows that came and went that crossed my desk that I said no to," LeBlanc said at the Television Critics Association fall press tour. "I just took the time, 12 years [of Friends and Joey] every day was a lot. It was a great time but I wanted to take some time off and spend time with my daughter, just take some time away from the business. It's nice to be back with writing I have a real faith in, with a cast that's really talented."
Episodes is very different from Friends, it is shot more like a movie on a closed set, and definitely has some of the edge that other cable series display.
"It was a little different, this is single camera versus multi-camera. When the punchlines came up and you say the punchline and there's no crowd laughing it's a little unnerving. Besides that we had a great time and it shows."
So how close is the fake Matt to the real Matt? "It's not really myself I guess. It's just a character that David [Crane] and Jeffrey [Klarik] wrote that happens to have the same name as me, pretty much. There are some similarities but for the most part it's a fictitious character," LeBlanc explained.

Recalls and repairs are the least of Toyota's worries
Friday, February 12, 2010
Los Angeles Times: In addition to facing possible liability suits for damages resulting from accidents involving their cars with known safety defects, Toyota could also face a class action over the loss of their vehicles' value. "It's easy to prove damages here," said law professor P. Tim Howard. "You don't think you're damaged, try to sell your Toyota and see if you can get for it today what you could have four weeks ago."

text: This episode of The Marty O Radio Show discusses a Myriad of topics from politics in old time movies, Obama insulting American's throughout his history, Hillary's pulling her own Romney-esque 47% comment to Trump Supporters, how half our country has lost it's patriotism since we all hung our flags on our porches the day after 9/11, and truly so much more topics that one could shake a stick at. However, here, as well in the show I would like to make a statement. I have always been an NFL fan. I have seen every Super bowl since the very first Super bowl (I am a very big Packers fan). From Bart Starr, Paul Horning, Jim Taylor, the "Ice Bowl" etc. to Rogers. By the NFL denying the Cowboys to honor the fallen policemen in Dallas, to an upcoming threat to fine a player for remembering 9/11 and wearing 9/11 cleats as a tribute… Yet, to allow players to not respect the American flag (which granted is the players right). I also have a right; I shall exercise my right to not watch one football game including the Super bowl this year unless the NFL stops supporting negatives and denies positives. (There's always lingerie football!… Do they still do that? :o). And yes, I can certainly trace even this NFL flag thing to Obama going back to the Beer Summit. Thanks Obama for dividing our country like no enemy could ever have.

KTFA's FillyJJ Shares His/Her Bank Story
Isn't it strange in Dinarland how some bank employees are totally in the dark about the Dinar - some "deny" knowing any thing about the Dinar - or some say they will not sell or exchange the Dinar and then some boldly say it is a scam? Well here is a different tale --
Post by FillyJJ » October 2nd, 2013, 2:19 pm • [Post 367]
I spoke to a WF private banker about a week and a half ago, she was very helpful and knew all about the dinar. She said it is not live yet, I told her I knew that but wanted to know how she could help me when the blessing arrived.
She said she would have to have our accounts with WF transferred to her in Texas and said her Wealth Manager was well aware of her clients with dinar and other currencies and he would have a team of people there to help us,
Read More Link On Right
Then she ask if we would have over 50 Million, if we did she would need to know that when we set our appointments up with her. So to be sure and let her know.
She also told us they were ready that everyone had been trained.
One thing that bothers me is there will be no de laure machine there, she said they would exchange by using books. (this is the only thing I'm not sure about)!!!
She also told me she has hundreds of dirar clients some with several hundred million :daisy: WOW!
We emailed her all our information and she said she would put us on her call list to let us know when it happened.
We also have a group of people (mostly family) that have currency, however she said she would not exchange anyone who did not have an account with WF before the RV. I kinda find that hard to believe.
We live in Oklahoma and they do not have WF Banks here so most of our group will not have accounts 4 hours to the closest bank and some just can't travel that far. We will just wait and see who wants our money the most!!!
Below another story: A Personal Banker does not know what a Dela-rue machine is??? Really????
Post by lorie777 » October 2nd, 2013, 3:15 pm • [Post 392]
Funny I just called a local WF here in Az and I spoke to the personal Banker.
He had no idea what a delarue machine was and knew nothing about the IQD, he looked it up and Iraq nor Vietnam were listed on his list of foreign currencies.
But was more than willing to talk to me if I needed exchange it in the future.
Post by AzProf » October 2nd, 2013, 3:22 pm • [Post 396]
Lorie, Im in the Phx area, and my bank says I can exchange right now. I assume the rate is 1166 though.
10/2/2013 12:03:17 pm
Wichita, KS has WF and is only 160 miles from Oklahoma City.
10/2/2013 12:07:39 pm
did she happen to say why it was important to tell her if you had over 50M.
10/2/2013 03:35:20 pm
Over 50 million in assets at Wells Fargo gets you to a whole other level of financial advisor, an Abbott Downing Wealth Manager.

What is a de laure machine?
10/2/2013 12:25:51 pm
Just for info.when I called my wellfargo bank,they took my info and had it set up and we went in and signed as well adding security stuff.ask her if my family could do this also,over the phone,yes....it is an hour to the closest to us...they did need them to have done before can exchange foren currance...that's just business ...we have accnt that has nothing yet...have a great day...go RV
10/2/2013 12:29:38 pm
The reason that they don't know about delarue machine is several years ago that part of the company was solid to the telorus company they make the currency counters that verify.
10/2/2013 12:41:15 pm
WF does not need a Delarue to identify your dinar...I have discussed this with them and was assured they could verify them
10/2/2013 01:15:30 pm
And how will they verify them? What means will they be using that has you assured?
10/2/2013 04:05:59 pm
I was told this as well. Currency is made with many identifiers imbedded and printed on the money itself. They have a book of verifications, "black lights," liquid verifier (like the high liter marker looking thing that some stores use on anything higher than a 20). They said they can verify any amount... that of course larger amounts will take longer, but it a valid exchange procedure.
10/3/2013 07:34:38 am
The Iraqi currency is supposed to be the most counterfeit proof currency in the world.
10/2/2013 05:32:50 pm
I have a personal friend who is a supervisor at Scotiabank here in Canada so I visited her office and asked her to show me the book where they check different currencies, she showed me a two inch thick book with all the currencies of the world. A picture of a different bill on each page and an explanation what to look for aunthenticity. They indicated they do not need a Delarue machine if they have the book :)
10/2/2013 12:41:51 pm
Just to show you how uninformed WF bankers are...I set up two trust accounts with a young private banker I've been working with and he let me do it with zero dollars which is what I wanted. Well, he hadn't heard about the Dinar either until I told him which got him a little excited but here's the kicker....he never heard of an Abbot Downing account which is WF high roller accounts over 50 mil. He never deals with that so he never heard of it. So not knowing about the Dinar is no gauge at all about it's authenticity.
10/2/2013 01:04:46 pm
OILGENRL7, you are right. I am with Citibank, in crowed southern California, and they also do not have a delarue machine. They will be using a book to verify immediately
10/2/2013 01:09:29 pm
I called a WF in Tempe last week asking if they were going to work with Dinar. She flippantly said, No we dont do that, it is not real money. I asked, We meaning WF? She All banks in America, it just isn't real money anywhere.
10/2/2013 02:40:58 pm
my wells fargo in springtown texas told me they were ready and waiting and had the currency book to verify the money. she said as soon as it is released she would be happy to exchange my foreign currency. and as soon as the dong rv's I could exchange it there as well. so you see not all wells fargos tell you the truth and not all of them will be associated with the rv.

10/2/2013 01:49:57 pm
Funny:-) I called W.F. in Witchita Falls TX. They had told me there are NOT dealing with the Dinar. Just on whim I called BOA In my town and they will be doing exchanges as long as you have an account. She said you can do this at the same time. We talked about the different accts. And as long as you have one they do not charge for the exchange. WF is over rater IMO.
10/2/2013 02:03:42 pm
FillyJJ. Im sorry to bug you again. In my previous post I ask about wealth manager and I meant private banker. Im in TX and wondered if you would share her contact info. Thank you!

I just bought my first dinars today. I know very little about this so can anyone point me in the right direction on what I am doing now? I am a complete and utter newbie at this and after reading all these posts, I really feel ignorant now so can anyone help me??
10/2/2013 03:10:50 pm
Would someone please tell me how to post on this site. I have been reading the posts daily for well over two years and the only think I have been able to post is in "reply" to a post from another Dinarian. Yet this "Angie sites" above says she purchased her first Dinars just today, and already she is able to post. I am not dumb, but I cannot figure out how to post with an original posting. Thanks

Hi Angie.... I have been invested in IQN Iraqi Dinar Notes for about 3 years.... The GCR Global Currency Reset is about to take place any day now... (or this is what I am hearing).... Do not.. under any circumstances... loose this money you have... keep it in a very safe place.... I put mine in a Bank Safety Deposit Box...
10/2/2013 05:09:53 pm
Jamie and all did you know that Bank Safety Deposit Boxes are NOT federally insured like your accounts are? Had a friend who had put about $100k in cash, her $30,000 platinum diamond ring and a few of her deceased father's important papers in it. She would go monthly and take a little bit out here and there. Well, one time she showed up at the bank and her box was in a different place. They could not find her box. When they finally located it, it was empty except for a couple of documents. She could not recoup the money the value of the ring, nothing. There are no video cameras in the safety deposit box room so they could not even figure out who did it. It was a total loss. Your accounts are FDIC up to $100K-$250K but not the boxes. Nobody sees what you put in a box and nobody can verify what was stolen. Check with your bank. Rethink your 'safe' place.
10/2/2013 03:49:55 pm
Its pretty late for catch up but If I were you I'd start by reviewing all of Tony's (TNT) call transcripts on Dinar Recaps, at least back to mid September. Then look at all the reference materials under the Bulletin Board and Post RV (at the top of this page).
10/2/2013 03:39:01 pm
You can verify your money by buying a black light bulb at any hardware store. The money will light up under the light to show its real. The bulb cost around 6.00. Or if you have a black light somewhere, like over your fish tank, or a friend with one. Some let stores use them also. Sneak a bill in and see what happens.
10/2/2013 04:01:09 pm

Thanks for the great info. I have spent all morning trying to figure this stuff out and my head is swimming. Ok here is another stupid question .... When this dinar rv now will we know? I mean is there a site that I can check to find out when this thing happens? I figure that I would just check this site and if it does happen I am sure there will be so many posts that you can't count them lol.

Galbijim in Seoul
Gangnam Myun Oak (강남면옥)
At any given moment, if you ask me what my favorite food is, I will most likely respond with a wide variety of answers depending on what I'm particularly craving at that point in time. Most of the time, however, I will without any hesitation say that Galbijim is my absolute favorite. I finally got a chance to try this galbijim restaurant in Seoul which was recommended by several grubbers and man was it delicious!
I grew up eating this stuff at my family's restaurant – and still to this day I have memories of my step dad's recipe being my most favorite dish of all time! Of course my palette has probably changed, and it may or may not have been the best tasting dish in the world, but eating this traditional cuisine always leaves me beaming with delight. Gangnam Myun Oak is located in Apgujeong, a little ways off the Sinsa & Apgujeong subway exits. I've come to find out that there are other similar (if not the same) restaurants throughout Seoul. This post will be about this particular location.
The Galbijim is a must – which comes in 3 different sizes depending on how much beef ribs you want in your belly. The portions come out with the full bones attached, which look more like beef ribs you usually get in America. The lean and fatty mixture of the ribs are very tender and the marinade is a delicious blend of sweet and salty goodness. The meal comes with other great banchan, some yooksu (soup beverage), and whatever else your heart desires. We ordered some Mandu, which were pretty hefty, and some mul naeng myun (cold noodles), both of which were excellent.
The meal doesn't come with rice, however, you can order some bokkeumbap after you're done with your entree. The waitress will take the stone pot away and bring it back with some sizzling rice that you can stuff yourself with if you're still hungry. The restaurant itself is pretty large, however, depending on the time and day you decide to visit, there may be a wait to dine at this grubbery. Gangnam Myun Oak has become my favorite restaurant (so far…) that dishes out my favorite food and I can't wait to visit again.
Low down: Galbijim, mandu, naengmyun, and some bokkeumbap to finish it off! =)
Price: $$$
Stars: 5

Park Development Plans
In 2010, the Town was awarded an Environmental Protection Fund (EPF) grant through New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to create a plan for the park.
The planning project was directed by the Park Design Committee working with the consulting services of Doug Gerber, RLA and Jo Anne Gagliano, RLA of EDR Companies. Joining the project were Maren King, Assistant Director of the Center for Community Design & Research (CCDR), and students from the State University College of Environmental Science & Forestry School of Landscape Architecture. EDR, in concert with CCDR consulting performed an inventory and analysis, developed project goals, program options, and alternative conceptual approaches which was completed in 2013. A PDF file may be downloaded here
To finish out the project, plans are to develop an Interpretive Plan in 2016.
