Wizardry: Bane of the Cosmic Forge
[add review | score detail | rate game]
Not an American user?
DescriptionIt is said the the Cosmic Forge is a magical pen possessing an enormous power: whatever is written with it instantly becomes true. A group of explorers ventures into the castle that where the king, the queen, and the wizard who created the pen used to dwell. Nobody knows what has been happening there for the last hundred years, since nobody dares to enter the haunted castle. As the heroes step in, the doors behind them close forever. They are left alone to discover the truth about the Cosmic Forge and the drama that occurred between the castle's inhabitants.
Bane of the Cosmic Forge is the sixth entry in the Wizardry series. While retaining the basic premise of creating a party of up to six adventurers to roam first-person dungeons and fight enemies in turn-based combat, this installment contains numerous enhancements and new features. It is the first game in the series to feature full color graphics and a mouse-driven interface. Combat options are more detailed, with precise weapon moves (such as thrust and bash) available. Magic is divided into six different schools, the spellcaster's powers increasing if he or she concentrates on one of them. Picking locks or disarming traps by thief-like classes is done actively by participating in a simple minigame. Characters can learn skills unique to their class when leveling up. These skills range from weapon proficiencies to field abilities that can be used outside of combat.
In addition to the traditional races of humans, elves, dwarves, hobbits, and gnomes, the player can choose between the Lizardman, the cat-like Felpurr, the canine Rawulf, the pixie-like Faerie, the intimidating Dracon, and the furry Mook. Each race has its own strengths and weaknesses, as well as predispositions to certain classes. Exotic character classes such as Valkyrie, Alchemist, Psionic, Ninja, Samurai, and Monk are also available during character creation, though they require a higher amount of bonus points received during the initial dice roll. It is also possible for characters to switch to another class during the course of the game.
Conversations with NPCs have been extended, the player being able to talk about various topics with the same character. The game also features a branching storyline: depending on the player's choice to believe or mistrust a key character, the plot will split into different directions, resulting in several different endings. The entire game takes place within the castle and its surroundings, without the possibility to travel back to the town or create other characters after the game has started. Unlike the previous entries, it is possible to save the game anywhere manually.

From private companies to associations and organizations, litigation support professionals and lawyers have many options to become "certified" in e-discovery. These programs offer different curricula and certification upon completion.
You need to collect data in response to a discovery request. Do you hire a forensic consultant? Or can you rely on your own IT staff or counsel to handle it? Find out more about when self-collection is, and is not, appropriate.
Failure to comply with electronic production obligations can lead to serious sanctions, sometimes to the tune of millions of dollars. Let's examine important issues that have arisen and how courts have ruled in the aftermath of the FRCP amendments that became effective on December 1, 2006.
In today's business, all information is electronic. Paper may have been heavy, hard to store, and time-consuming to review-but it was a tangible thing, easy to inventory, and it tended to be limited in volume, even in the largest cases. Electronic communication has led to exponential increases in the amount of data that companies store, and the locations where the information is stored.
Electronic discovery is about fact finding, accuracy, truth . . . and money. Corporate clients pay millions of dollars, in some cases, for the time and expertise of their lawyers and technologists. These costs are rising, the direct result of rising quantities of discoverable electronically stored information (ESI).
Do we keep our current review platform or upgrade to one of the newer in-house models? For many law firms, now's the time to ask that question.
Predictive coding (also known as technology assisted review) heavily leverages statistics to reduce the time needed to examine large document sets that in the past may have taken a group of attorney reviewers weeks or months to review at great cost. What are the benefits and risks involved with this tool?
Have you ever received a call or letter from opposing counsel, "kindly" advising you that they discovered an incriminating photo on your personal injury client's Facebook page that shows your client performing ski jumps at a time when they were allegedly injured and unable to work?
Written transcripts of audio evidence are an extremely helpful tool in defending litigation. Frequently, in both civil and criminal trials, recordings to be placed into evidence by the prosecution are submitted to the defense without the accompaniment of a transcript. This article will explain some of the dangers associated with using audio evidence without a transcript.
There is guidance from the courts that may help your company increase its chances of identifying anonymous bloggers who may be liable for claims such as copyright infringement, trademark infringement, or defamation.

In baseball playoffs: Hot-hitting Rangers double up Highlanders
by Richard Creaser
copyright the Chronicle June 5, 2013
ORLEANS — The Lake Region Rangers (11-5) hot-hitting ways continued Tuesday as they faced the visiting Harwood Highlanders (8-7) in the first round of Division II baseball playdowns. The Rangers rapped out ten hits against three Highlander pitchers en route to a convincing 8-4 win.
"I feel like that was our best hitting game this year," Rangers freshman second baseman Kolby George said after the game. "I really liked batting today — lots of nice, straight pitches."
George's early at bats may have contributed to the early departure of Highlander starter Ty Delphia. George battled his way through 11 pitches in the first at bat for the home team before launching a double deep against the centerfield wall.
"I knew our guys were going to hit it," Coach Eric Degre said after the game. "We've been really dialed in at the plate. Today we worked the pitch count and took advantage of our opportunities."
Coach Degre took a chance using his number two starter, Dustin Bathalon, opting to save flame throwing starter Matt Messier's arm for later in the playoffs. It was a good call, as Bathalon pitched six innings surrendering four runs, only three of them earned.
"Dustin was pretty awesome," Coach Degre said. "He's been pitching pretty well all year."
Though Lake Region has played a primarily Division III schedule and Harwood a Division II schedule, Coach Degre was confident that his team was up to the challenge. Tuesday's game was the first match-up between Harwood and Lake Region this year.
"I don't care who you play," Coach Degre said. "You still have to catch, pitch, throw and hit to win the game. We knew what we needed to do to win, and we did it."
Despite never having faced Harwood before and fielding a relatively young team, the Rangers were not in the least intimidated by their opponents, George said.
"I knew they would be a similar sort of team," George said. "They would play a lot like us. We knew this was a playoff game and I figured we'd step it up."
The Highlanders got on the board early as Lucas Russell came around to score on Dylan MacIsaac's RBI single in the top of the first. The Rangers would respond by bringing around four batters to jump out to an early 4-1 lead.
The Rangers endured some costly defensive lapses that allowed Harwood to tie the game at four apiece in the second inning. Despite those costly errors, the Rangers rallied back.
"I always talk to the guys about dealing with adversity," Coach Degre said. "They know how to handle it. They're very supportive of each other."
Lake Region reclaimed the lead in the bottom of the third after Logan Harper reached on a single and advanced to third on a pair of brilliantly executed stolen bases. With the bases loaded and one out, Highlander Coach Mitch Casey made a pitching change and brought in Dominic Moreno to relieve Dephia. Though Moreno retired the first batter he faced, he plunked Alex Beauregard to bring in the go-ahead run before inducing a groundball out to end the inning.
Lake Region plated two more runs in the bottom of the fourth to cement their lead, and add their eighth and final run in the bottom of the sixth. Bathalon continued to pitch into the top of the seventh before a single and an error put men on the corners. Coach Degre let Messier take the mound.
Messier struck out all three batters he faced to secure the win and help the Rangers advance to the quarter-final round. With the win the Rangers will face either number two seed Otter Valley or number 15 Montpelier High on Friday, June 7.
"To advance to the quarter finals with such a young team really feels wonderful," Coach Degre said. "They're young but their learning."

When Superstorm Sandy submerged Len Drive in south Bellmore last Oct. 29, it was particularly cruel to the home of David and Rona Weiss, who are in their mid-60s and bought their 2,450-square-foot high ranch in 1983.
Sandy's floodwaters breached the Weisses' downstairs, soaking their belongings in a pool of murky, brown saltwater. When Rona returned home after the storm, she found her wedding dress and album floating across her downstairs.
The Weisses' cleanup contractor removed more than three feet of water by lifting a bathroom toilet and letting it flow into the sewer. When workers started ripping up linoleum tiles downstairs, they discovered a spider's web of cracks –– some hairline, others deep –– radiating across the cement floor and up the foundation walls. In one section, the floor collapsed into a small pit.
The Weisses could not return to their house, they were told. It was uninhabitable and would have to come down.
Now it is gone, and their 60-by-100-foot lot is barren except for weeds. The couple are living in a rented house in Levittown, hoping to begin building a new home soon, but they are uncertain when they will be able to.
David, an attorney with an office on Bedford Avenue in Bellmore and the chairman of the Town of Hempstead Board of Zoning Appeals, grew up in Bellmore and graduated from Kennedy High School in 1968. He met Rona, who was raised in Hewlett, while the two were students at the University of Buffalo, where they graduated in 1972. They married in 1976, after David finished Hofstra Law School. Rona, who majored in political science, stayed home to raise their three children, who are now adults.
The past year, Rona said, has pushed the Weisses to their limits. "You think you're crazy," she said. "You think this can't be happening."
An earth-movement exclusion in the Weisses' National Flood Insurance policy, which they first purchased 30 years ago, has held up their settlement for nearly a year. Estimates are that the Weisses' home would cost $430,000 to rebuild. Their flood insurance is supposed to cover $323,000 in structural and personal property damage, according to David. But Travelers has fought the claim virtually from the time it was filed, shortly after the storm last year.

For us it's Crystal Clear
Let us take you on our journey…
We must got back to 1945, when the seed that would become Fagerhult first began to grow. Throughout the decades, we have placed people and the environment at the centre of all our activities.
Our environmental initiative
Crystal Clear is Fagerhult's environmental initiative. It's our way of emphasising the importance of working in a way that leaves behind the least possible environmental impact. And in doing so, it is also important that we focus on people. The people for whom we make lighting, but also our employees, and above all the coming generations.
We are continuously working on improvements and spur ourselves to come up with ideas and initiatives that make us proud and ensure to call us sustainable company. We want our customers to be confident that we have the knowledge necessary to propose the most sustainable lighting solution.
The important energy efficiency
A sustainable lighting solution is the sum of many parts. Energy efficiency is extremely important, because it is of great importance to the environment, but all the other decisions about the design of the solution have an impact, too.
Efficiency should not either be confused with ergonomics. Of course we want our products to contribute to better living and working environments. But to actually achieve this combination, you need to take into account all factors right from the start, as the product is being developed. That's what we do at Fagerhult. We put together intelligent solutions that can often halve electricity consumption without compromising on lighting amenity.
Good light levels with light control
With a contemporary lighting control system you can save a lot of energy, and at the same time improve the ergonomics in terms of the lighting for the people occupying the room.
A luminaire system with daylight and motion sensors ensures that the amount of light in the space is always at a good level for seeing and working unimpeded. But the system also ensures that the levels are not too high, adjusting them to the amount of daylight and the activities in the space. If no one is there, the lights simply switch off.
One example of an innovative control system is e-Sense move.
Choosing the right technology
The energy efficiency of a luminaire describes how much of the energy it consumes it is able to transform into light. The higher its efficiency, the better!
The choice of light source affects energy efficiency, and it is also very important that the luminaire has been developed for the particular light source used.
The wrong light source in a luminaire is not just a waste of energy – it can also be downright dangerous. Fagerhult uses only modern, energy-efficient light sources intended for use in public spaces: T5 fluorescent tubes and compact fluorescent lamps, as well as LEDs.
From cradle to recycling
How is the environment impacted by our luminaires? Fagerhult investigate this in detail – with the intention of making our solutions even better.
We have investigated the entire life cycle of the luminaire – from raw material through manufacturing and distribution, to use and recycling. We have even investigated how much carbon dioxide (CO2) is emitted when our co-workers travel to work! That's why we can report (with a high degree of precision) the amount of CO2 emissions contributed by each of our luminaires during their lifetimes.
The amount of emissions is dependent on what materials are used in the luminaire, where it is manufactured and where it will be used.
The work that we do to reduce environmental impact is long-term and innovative, and guided by detailed objectives. The development of new products is the core of our activities – from the technical solutions we use in our products to the optimisation of raw material use and environment-friendly manufacturing methods.
When you hire Fagerhult, you can rest assured that your lighting will be economical, and kind to the environment and human health while at the same time stimulating creativity and promoting well-being. For us it is Crystal Clear.

Racing forward De Paul set for Valencia switch
Valencia have announced the Racing Club forward Rodrigo de Paul, subject to the player passing a medical.
The 19-year-old has made 33 league appearances for the Buenos Aires club this season after making his breakthrough during the previous campaign.
A host of clubs, including Udinese, had been linked with a bid for De Paul, but he will move to La Liga for the start of 2014-15.
Valencia confirmed they would pay Racing €6.5 million for the attacking player, providing he passes a medical in the coming days.
"He's a proven player in Argentina despite his youth, he was captain of his team and is overflowing with talent," Valencia general manager Rufete said.
"We believe Rodrigo has everything (required) to succeed in Valencia and European football."
Valencia coach Juan Antonio Pizzi also expressed his delight at signing De Paul.
"Rodrigo is the player with the biggest impact to come out of Argentina in the last five years. This is great news for Valencia," he said.

William Pritchard is a fine, old-fashioned critic who reads fiction and poetry for their literary qualities. Yesterday's Times Book Review featured Pritchard's essay on the publication of Robert Lowell's Collected Poems: "The whole Lowell."
Speaking of Lowell's For the Union Dead, Pritchard concludes: "[W]e hear the depressed, regretful tenor, again 'frizzled, stale and small,' of most of the poems in 'For the Union Dead'; then at book's end the title poem, which moves beyond private turmoil into civic, momentous statement. About a number of poems in these two volumes it can be said what Jarrell said about 'one or two' of them in 'Lord Weary' — that they 'will be read as long as men remember English.'" Here is "For the Union Dead." See for yourself.
The Times caption reads: "Robert Lowell in 1962."

Lamar to host McMurry for homecoming
Despite opening the Southland Conference 0-2, the Lamar Cardinals look to get back on track when they host McMurry University for Homecoming on Saturday, Oct. 13, at 7 p.m. at Provost Umphrey Stadium in non-conference action.
The Cards (2-4) are coming off a 30-23 road loss at Northwestern State while the War Hawks, a Division II school, are 3-2. Their losses have come to Abilene Christian (51-0) and McNeese State (69-7) while McMurry beat Wayland Baptist (76-13), Oklahoma Panhandle State (42-33) and Southern Nazarene University (22-19). The War Hawks are coached by former University of Kentucky head coach Hal Mumme.
A celebration of Cardinal camaraderie awaits Lamar University alumni as they will "get their red on" for an alumni tailgate party 5-6:30 p.m. on the porch of the Montagne Center. The Homecoming celebration precedes the 7 p.m. kickoff.
Lamar alumni will be admitted to the tailgate area for $5, payable at the gate, which will cover pork shanks, smoked boudin balls and Cajun drumsticks, plus two beverages, said Linda LeBlanc, director of alumni affairs.
Alumni may purchase Homecoming game tickets for half price, providing them with seating in any section. These tickets may be purchased online using the promotional code "getyourredon" (code is case sensitive), by calling (409) 880-1715 or visiting the LU ticket office in the Montagne Center in person. Alumni must mention the code "get your red on" when purchasing tickets in order to get the half-price rate.
Additional information is available at the LU Office of Alumni Affairs, (409) 880-8921 or Alumni [at] Lamar [dot] edu.
The Beaumont City Council issued a proclamation Oct. 9 to declare the week of Oct. 8-13 as the "Get Your Red On." The council will join Beaumont residents and businesses in proclaiming their support for Lamar as the university "acknowledges and expresses appreciation to the many individuals, business owners, government leaders and alumni who have made the return of football successful and who are responsible for the community-wide show of Cardinal spirit and of support for its students on behalf of the ties that bind campus and community."
The Lady Cards suffered their first setbacks of the fall exhibition season, dropping games to LSU-Eunice, Belhaven and LSU at the LSU Tournament last weekend in Baton Rouge.
The Lady Cardinals dropped a 6-5 decision to LSU Eunice, then lost 7-6 to Belhaven and were blanked 13-0 to LSU, a team that finished eighth at last year's College Softball World Series.
"We were outworked all three games," said LU head coach Holly Bruder. "I can handle lack of hitting and execution — those are things my coaching staff and I can fix. But I won't accept the lack of work through seven innings and the lack of passion on every pitch."
"We will step it up this week to get better," she said. "I hope that my girls gain knowledge and experience from playing good teams and suffering through a tough weekend."
Lamar traveled to Louisiana-Lafayette for an exhibition game at 1 p.m. on Oct. 13.
Taylor Mitchell's goal midway through the second half lifted LU past Southeastern Louisiana (7-6-1, 1-2-1) on Oct. 7 to help the Lady Cards improve to 6-7-1 overall and 2-1 in conference play.
LU returns home for a pair of SLC games beginning with Central Arkansas on Oct. 12 at 7 p.m. and Northwestern State at 1 p.m. on Oct. 14.
The losing streak is now at five as the Lady Cards dropped two matches last weekend, losing at Oral Roberts, 3-0, and Central Arkansas, 3-0, to fall to 9-12 overall and 1-6 in SLC play.
LU's next three matches are at home as they host Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Oct. 11 at 7 p.m., Sam Houston State on Oct. 13 at 1 p.m. and Nicholls State on Oct. 16 at 7 p.m.
Men's golf
The Cards placed ninth at the David Toms Intercollegiate on Oct. 9 in Baton Rouge. LU shot a three-round total of 100-over 964. Host and 16th ranked LSU won the nine-team tournament with an 897 total (+33).
Senior Erik Knudsen was the Cards' top finisher as he tied for 31st with a 22-over 238. LSU's Andrew Presley won individual medalist honors with a 4-over-par total of 220.
Other Cardinal golfers were junior Stephane Dubois (T39, 242), sophomore Gustaf Burenstam (T41, 243), freshman Greg Wiggins, who played in his first collegiate tournament and tied for 46th with a 245, and sophomore Luke Jerling tied for 49th with a 252.
The Cards next tournament will be the Royal Oaks Intercollegiate in Dallas beginning Oct. 29.
Head coach Scott Shankles was pleased with his first-ever fall tournament at Thompson Family Tennis Center last weekend during the Cardinal Classic.
"It's been a long three days, but I think we had a pretty good tournament," Shankles said. "I think that these last two days especially have shown the type of team we have. This was a good step for us, and now we'll spend the next two weeks getting ready for ITA Regionals."
The Cardinals will return to action in two weeks at the ITA Regional Championships in Ft. Worth on Oct. 20.
The Lady Cards competed in the UL Invitational at Lafayette over the weekend as Alessandra Pennesi picked up a singles title in one of the flights by defeating Andriana Castillo of Southeastern Louisiana.
They will next compete Oct. 12-14 at Northwestern State in Natchitoches, La.
Social media challenge
For the first time ever, Lamar University and McNeese State will do battle in a different way as the two schools continue their storied rivalry – a social media challenge.
The event is now underway and runs through Nov. 16, leading up to the football regular-season finale between the schools at McNeese State's Cowboy Stadium on Nov. 17.
The challenge is designed to see which school can gain the most followers on Twitter and likes on Facebook during that time period. The winning school will receive, at the expense of the losing school, a pre-game party for the Boys & Girls Club prior to a Southland Conference basketball game in the spring.

Roots Sports filled out its Rockies broadcast lineup today, announcing the hiring of Joel Klatt and Jenny Cavnar. Both have deep Colorado roots.
Klatt, the former University of Colorado quarterback, will be the on-air host of the Rockies pregame show and the Toyota Postgame Shows. Cavnar will be both a sideline reporter and a host.
The duo replaces two longtime Roots Sports personalities. Alanna Rizzo recently signed with the MLB Network and has moved from Colorado to New York. Tom Helmer learned earlier this month that his contract had not been renewed.

Revolution And Evolution On America's Bad-Boy Pickup
It's hard to believe that the Dodge Ram pickup has been around in its current configuration for eight years. In fact, it still seems like a new truck to many of us (a feeling we can no doubt attribute to what has been a revolutionary, even radical, approach to truck styling), although in the broader scope of automotive evolution, the Ram is rapidly approaching the long-in-tooth category.
When Chrysler presented the revised Ram to consumers in the '94 model year, the company launched the first of many volleys in its battle to ascend to a more commanding position in the car, truck, and SUV markets. To more effectively compete with GM and Ford in commercial and consumer truck segments, Dodge had to do something different…really different. In redesigning the Ram pickup, company brass placed their bets on a radical and refreshing "retro-styling" approach that year, with distinctly lowered front fenders and high-cab design. The gambit paid off big time, and seemingly overnight the new Dodge Ram leaped to the front of its competition, if not in total sales, then in widespread appreciation by consumers. In the ensuing years, this has continued. Though the Ram has had a few rough edges, these have always been eclipsed by the overall package.
Now DaimlerChrysler is focusing its attention on putting a fresh polish on the vehicle that helped push the company to its currently enviable market position. For the 2002 model year the Dodge Ram pickup will host a number of refinements inside and out, its first true redesign since the debut. There's nothing radical going on, so don't worry that the bigwigs are planning to tamper with success. Rather, the engineers have been hard at work trying to make the Ram a smoother, quieter, more functional, and more efficient vehicle. It's the same old Ram, only better.
Dodge is beginning the 2002 Ram relaunch by focusing attention on the 1500 series trucks-specifically the Regular Cab and Quad Cab models. Production begins this summer, with the finished products heading for the dealer showrooms in the fall. Similar revisions for the 2500 and 3500 series trucks will be made for the 2003 model year.
ExteriorNow before anyone gets their shorts in a bind, understand that the new Ram will not feature any shocking appearance alterations. In fact, most folks won't even be able to see that anything at all has happened to the Ram, because the exterior engineering has essentially been limited to tweaking-primarily to improve the vehicle's aerodynamics, reduce wind noise, and improve cooling.
For starters, the windshield has been raked back slightly to help with airflow and water management. This was designed to work hand-in-hand with the revised A-pillar/door seam. Now the front doors overlap the A-pillar to smooth out front and side air flow, and to better allow channeling of water over the roof instead of along the side windows. To reduce wind noise, the dual-lamp headlights and side mirrors have been redesigned. Minor stuff, really, but at this stage of the game, improvements to an already exceptional package come mostly in small increments.
On the styling side, the Ram grille is bigger than before, and each trim level (ST, SLT, Sport, and SLT+) will receive its own "interpretation" of this distinctive front-end piece. Another small change is a more pronounced hood crown as it slopes down to the fenders. Beneath that bulbous hood, designers have now integrated an air dam to help with engine cooling and enhance air flow to the A/C condenser for better A/C performance.
InteriorProbably the most significant and recognizable changes for those familiar with the current Ram can be found inside the cab. In both the regular cab and Quad Cab, the interiors have been lengthened by 3 inches. This was accomplished by taking 3 inches from the bed length and adding it to the cab. Preliminary literature claims that with this change the truck "remains essentially the same length as the previous model." We checked that out against the 2001 Quad Cab specs and found that "essentially the same length" means that the new Quad Cab has an overall length of 227.7, which is 3.6 inches longer than the old model. If the engineers traded bed length for cab space, we haven't figured out where that extra 3.6 inches comes from. Likewise, the regular cab sports an extra 3 inches in overall length, although the listed specifications show a box-length decrease of 5 inches from the old model. Go figure.
Whatever the case, the new Ram has more interior space than its predecessor, providing more passenger room and interior hauling space. Another noticeable update is the new instrument panel, which features bright white gauges for better visibility. Cool options include a dual-zone climate-control system, heated leather seats on the SLT+ model, and optional power adjustable brake and accelerator pedals for a more custom driver fit.
Engineers also addressed some safety concerns. Front and rear side-curtain air bags are available, and the rear seat of the Quad Cab is bigger and comes with lap-and-shoulder belts in all three seating positions-allowing more accommodations for child safety seats and boosters. The center seat position on the Regular Cab also has lap-and-shoulder belts.
DrivetrainFor 2002, the 1500 series trucks continues to boast three engine options-one V6 and two V8s. The hard-hitting 5.9L Magnum is still in the lineup, but the 3.9L V6 and 5.2L V8 engines have been displaced by all-new powerplants.
Economy-minded buyers will like the new 3.7L Magnum, which replaces the old 3.9L, for the simple reason that there are no sacrifices by going with a smaller displacement. The new V6 delivers 210 hp (at 5200 rpm) and 230 ft-lb of torque (at 4000 rpm est.), with a fuel economy of 16/21 (manual) and 16/20 (automatic). That's 35 more horsepower, the same torque, and one mpg better fuel economy in city driving than the 3.9L.
The new 4.7L Magnum gives only a slight horsepower improvement over the 5.2L it replaces, delivering 235 hp (at 4800 rpm) compared to 230 hp for the 5.2L. The smaller engine does go backwards in torque rating. With its 295 ft-lb of torque (at 3200 rpm), the 4.7 has 5 ft-lb less torque at the same rpm than the 5.2L. Fuel economy is only slightly better in the various 2WD/4WD/manual/automatic configurations. Unfortunately, the rumored new Hemi V8 will not be part of this year's model lineup.
Only one change has been made to the transmission. The NV3500 five-speed continues to be the base manual tranny for the two smallest Magnums, but the 42RE automatic is now replaced with the new-to-the-Ram 45RE four-speed auto, which is purported to be a quieter and more responsive slush box. The 45RE is also the only tranny in its class with a Reverse-gear ratio equal to the low-gear ratio, and an alternate Second-gear ratio which kicks in when needed for extreme towing, hauling and steep grade climbing. Trucks with the 5.9L Magnum can still be optioned with the 46RE four-speed automatic. For 4WD models, the manual NV 241 manual shift or NV 243 electric-shift transfer cases are the two choices.
Platform EnhancementsFor 2002 the Ram has also undergone some slight changes to improve safety, ride quality, and capabilities. A lot of engineering, for example, has gone into the frame. The front structure is now made through the hydroforming process which GM has been exploiting in their pickup and SUV lines, and has been designed to be stronger and better able to absorb impact forces, thereby offering increased passenger protection during collisions. In back, the frame has been additionally reinforced to maintain better crash integrity.
On the handling side, new steering ratios are aimed at helping maneuverability and steering ease. Engineers also revisited the braking system and, according to the company, have integrated the largest four-wheel disc brakes available in this truck segment. Four-wheel-drive models get a new torsion bar independent front suspension, while the traditional rear leaf springs have been lengthened by 3 inches for reduced wheel hop and added durability. Ground clearance comes in at a healthy 9.5 inches, with suspension travel increased by half an inch over the previous Ram, to 8.5 inches. Seventeen-inch wheels and tires are standard, but for those who want some truly impressive rolling stock, a 20-inch wheel/tire combo will be offered.
Performance And ConclusionSo what do all of these changes mean in the real world? We're not able to give you any quarter-mile numbers at this time, but from the "work mule" point of view, the 2002 Ram has a leg up on its predecessor. Both payload and towing capacities are up in the 1500 series. The Quad Cab towing capacity jumps from 7,650 pounds to 8,350 pounds, with a payload increase from 1,567 pounds to 1,750 pounds. The regular cab's towing capacity goes from 7,950 pounds to 8,660 pounds. Each model features increases in Gross Combined Weight (GCW) and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). Plenty of Mopar grit to tote boats, campers, engine blocks, show cars…you get the picture.
The original Ram design was one that gave truck buyers and owners a chance to have something different. In keeping with the Dodge: Different motif, the 2002 remake, though not as radically different as its first-generation predecessor, will continue to stand alone in an ever-increasing pack of competitors in its marketplace.

text: Dallas Cup - Day #9 March 22, 200812:00AM PDT Previous Next Day #9 Hello all once again, hope your all in good form. Today was a good day, we recorded our first win against Leicester City, so the vibe in the group is a positive one. It was good to finish off the trip on a positive note, like Thomas said to us earlier, its going to be a lot easier to get on the plane now with a win under our belt. It was another windy day, on a pitch that made it difficult to keep the ball for long periods of time. But we seemed to make it work and we got two good goals from both Randy and Dever. After the game some of us went away with our parents, while the others went out to lunch and just hung out at the hotel. Antonio and Marcus are still star struck, they ate lunch in the same restaurant as Jessica Simpson, and got a couple pictures with her. I don't really have to go into how jealous the rest of us are.. Tomorrow morning we are going to try and catch the English Premier League games, Liverpool vs Manchester United and Chesea vs Arsenal...(can't get much better than that). Then we are scheduled to catch the Finals in our tournament between Tigres and Liverpool at Pizza Hut Park, should be an interesting game. I'm going to place my money on Liverpool though, maybe someone here will take me up on that. Happy Easter to all you Whitecaps fans, hope the Bunny was good to you all. Take care.

Paul Walker + Roger Rodas May Have Been in a Street Race
More theories about what happened with the Porsche in which Paul Walker sat as a passenger at the time of death as one of two people in a one-car crash in Los Angeles on Nov. 30. This time, there is suspicion of a street race.
While there has been the suggestion of mechanical failure and a steering fluid leak, cops are also investigating a tip that Walker and experienced driver Roger Rodas were in the middle of a high-speed street race with another vehicle at the time of the crash.
That sounds a bit like a scenario from the 'Fast and Furious' film franchise that made Walker, 40, a household name. It also sounds like a bit of a reach, with life imitating art, but cops are still looking into things.
The authorities have received tips that Walker and Rodas, both of whom were killed in the tragic wreck, were racing in the $500,000 cherry red Porsche. The crash site has a checkered history and is considered a street racing location. Speed has also been suggested as an initial factor in the crash.
Cops continue to look for any video or witnesses that can produce evidence of another car being involved, which could change the complexion of the investigation.
R.I.P., Paul Walker.

Different types of stock require different investing strategies. These 3 stock investing tips will help you to figure out which stock investing strategy suit your needs.
Stock Investing Tips #1: Income Stocks
Income stocks is about getting consistent income from the company. Normally, investors will get paid in the form of dividends. Although the dividend will be taxed, it helps investors to generate consistent passive income out of the stocks they bought.
Why the company give dividends?
Why don't they use the cash for themselves?
A company will decide to distribute the excess cash as a dividend when its business operation does not require so much money to grow. This can be either due to limited growth opportunities or the company is able to borrow cash from borrowings instead of reinvesting its earnings. And by giving out the excess cash as dividends, the company is able to maintain very high return on equity too.
The investing strategy would be buying the stocks when they are undervalued, or known as value investing.
Stock Investing Tips #2: Growth Stocks
Growth stocks are hot; as hot as iPhone or iPod in fact. They are so hot due to its ability to double, triple or even quadruple investors' initial investment in just in few years! However, hunting growth stocks is a challenging quest.
It is not easy to discover the next Microsoft.
If you do, it needs time to grow.
But here are some tips for you. Look for stocks that have great Earnings Per Share Growth Rate (EPSGR), consistently growing sales and followed by operating cash flow as well as its profit margins. By having that kind of stocks, you are certain that the stock is growing healthily.
You can play momentum investing game with this stock.
Stock Investing Tips #3: Speculative Stocks
Speculative stock is high risk high return investment game plan. It is about making 100% returns in no time or losing them altogether! The return potential can be very good because it normally deals with penny stocks. In the same time, the risk is too high since nobody knows if the speculation takes place.
Speculators are normally seasoned traders.
But the victims are mostly beginners.
Thus, if you are new to stock market investing, avoid these types of stocks first. Yes, they can make you rich but you went broke if you are not using the right strategies.
You might find fundamental and technical useful to trade these stocks, and don't forget to place stop loss order. Otherwise, your losing streak won't stop!

Precious Metals are trading lower this morning, as central bank buying finally wasn't enough to keep prices in positive territory. Renewed concerns out of Greece and Spain have driven the euro downwards and strengthened the dollar. However, analysts at Commerzbank noted, "Central banks are likely to continue to buy gold for the remainder of this year, thereby stripping supply from the market and contributing to climbing gold prices."
Protesters have taken to the streets of Greece and Spain yet again. The fresh Greek government is currently working on a budget with the European Central Bank, International Monetary Fund, and European Commission in order to receive more bailout funds. The problem is that the Greek people have apparently reached a breaking point on austerity measures. Author and economist Vicky Pryce said, "They are trying to see whether they can have a stay of execution, and the protests are actually probably going to help, because it's obvious that they can't take any more austerity. The cost has been great for the Greeks … There's just no light at the end of the tunnel at present."
Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy seems to be gambling with his country's well-being. The latest speculation out of Spain is that Rajoy is delaying a bailout request because he believes that issues in Italy will worsen, making the bailout terms more friendly for Spain when it does finally request a bailout. Raphael Gallardo of Rothschild Asset Management said that Spain "would be in better company and would suffer less stigma if it was to ask for a rescue at the same time as Italy. Italy needs further austerity efforts so those are probably more reachable with the support of the European Union and the ECB."
At 9 a.m. (EDT), the APMEX Precious Metals spot prices were:
- Gold, $1,747.90, Down $17.50.
- Silver, $33.69, Down $0.27.
- Platinum, $1,621.60, Down $11.20.
- Palladium, $624.00, Down $16.80.

Gov. Sam Brownback announced Oct. 17 a brand-new initiative in his quest to get more education funding into classrooms with a website for people to report incidents that show room for increased school efficiency.
At least, that's one way to look at it. Another way to look at it is as Brownback's latest effort to drum up excuses to cut school funding. Brownback likes to cite a report that says only 54 percent of school funding goes into classrooms and for instruction, with the implication that the remaining 46 percent is wasteful spending.
There are plenty of perfectly valid school functions that aren't counted in Brownback's 54 percent. Students can't learn if they can't get to school, and buses are expensive and require trained drivers. Unless Brownback wants to switch to half-day school for all grades, kids need lunch. Hungry children are unfocused children. Districts certainly attempt to minimize the amount they subsidize food service, but few lunch programs are able to operate in the black. Librarians, counselors, speech pathologists, and others contribute directly to students' learning but aren't included in Brownback's 54 percent.
Even sports and extracurricular activities can serve an academic purpose. Many students don't appreciate how important education is to their futures, so other incentives may be necessary to motivate them. By demanding students meet academic eligibility requirements to participate in sports and activities, schools have an extra way to motivate students.
Brownback likes to talk about schools working together to reduce costs, but it isn't as if schools aren't already working together. Just in Marion County we have two monumental examples of districts working together: Marion County Special Education Cooperative and Technology Excellence in Education Network. Both programs directly increase student learning opportunities and improve educational outcomes while doing so more efficiently than any single district could.
Brownback says the right things about wanting to improve schools, but his actions tell a different story. His school efficiency task force only has one member whose career has been in education, and that was a late addition to a team filled with accountants and efficiency experts. That sounds more like a CEO planning layoffs than a governor trying to improve education.

Drugs are a complex social and health problem that affects millions of people in the EU. The human and social costs of drugs addiction are very high. They generate costs for public health (on drug prevention and treatment, healthcare and hospital treatment), public safety, the environment and labour productivity. In many countries around the world, drug trafficking also affects national stability and governance.
Drug trafficking and drug production remain among the most profitable criminal activities for organised crime groups active in the EU.

The inimitable Thom Wise on "Love Never Dies"
Thommy Wise, the irrepressible theater and dining critic at the Rocky Mountain News from 1997-2000, offers his thoughts on Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Love Never Dies," the long-awaited sequel to "The Phantom of the Opera" that has opened at London's Adelphi Theatre:
Ten years later, and a continent away, The Phantom returns … with all the glorious voices and head-scratchers that only a genius such as Andrew Lloyd Webber could muster.
"Love Never Dies" continues the story that no one really thought needed continuing, that of Christine Daaé, played deliciously by Denverite Sierra Boggess.
Sir Andy needed a locale that would allow him to follow his inner freak, so he places the story on Coney Island. Cleverly, it also allows him to incorporate one of his favorite art eras as well, that of Art Nouveau. Think Mucha, with a lot of black, and you have the entire set.
While there are two big plot twists, you'll only read one reveal here, and only because it's so blatantly obvious.
After all the ruckus the Phantom (a sexy, youthful Canadian named Ramin Karimloo) causes in Paris during Phantom of the Opera, he steals away to New York City with the help of Madame Giry (Liz Robertson) and her daughter Meg (Summer Strallen) – and opens a show called "Phantasma."
Meg, the little tart, turns out to be sleeping with all the local politicians and press to smooth the wheels for the ol' Phantom, all the while hoping to catch his eye with her provocative showstopper: "Bathing Beauty." Her dear mum remains the loyal-but-tortured confidant/assistant to Monsieur Phantom yet gets nothing in return for her efforts.
Christine has married Raoul (Joseph Millson, most recently seen in "The Priory," named best new comedy at this years Olivier Awards), who has turned out to be a ne'er-do-well, a gambler and a drunk. And yet – he still manages to be great-looking.
But now "The Spoiler" (don't read any further if you're one who loves (non)surprises): Christine brings her 10-year-old son with her, Gustave (played by any one of seven, count 'em), and the young man immediately wants to go explore all the dark delights of Phantasma … and he really likes music… You guessed it: Evidently the Phantom and Christine spent a little more time under his cloak down in the bowels of the Paris Opera House than anyone suspected.
And voila! We have Son of Phantom!
There are numerous other oddities within the story. Christine doesn't sing, and barely even speaks, for the first 45 minutes of the show. And then they're taken on a ride in a glass horse carriage – think Cinderella meets Waterford Crystal wrapped in wax paper. Then the rest of the story is one gigantic buildup to "The Big Aria" that Christine is to sing for the Phantom … the title song, which sadly turns out to be a bit of a let down. There's no high-G, like in the title song of the original Phantom score, while the first 36 bars feel more like a recitative.
The set has an economy to it, meaning the economic belt-tightening is universal, yet one that doesn't befit the $100 top ticket price. The proscenium looks to be lit with LED lights; the backstage door appears to be made of muslin; and the only Big Wow happens in the Phantom's rooftop lair during "The Beauty Underneath," which sounds more like a rock anthem rather than a musical.
Yes, there's a tattooed man, a man on stilts, dance-hall girls and even a hot-air balloon. (For a minute, I thought we might be getting the next great chandelier drop or helicopter whirligig, but alas… we merely see the ropes tethered to the balloon.) Oh, and there are some fine "new media" projections at the top of the show. Nothing to do with the period, but visually interesting nonetheless.
Denverites who might venture the 4,700 miles to get to London to see our very own Sierra will not be disappointed. It's a new Andrew Lloyd Webber, his first in years, and Boggess sings magnificently, with all the grace and skill of a true diva. Brava, Sierra, you deserve those standing O's.
Heck, she even mentions in the program that her first "clear memory" of seeing a show was the Denver touring production of Sunset Boulevard that "changed her life" — please, not the one with Petula Clark! – plus she manages to get in that her favorite food is Mexican. Go Sierra! (One wonders where she goes for a green chili in London?)
It's truly not "Paint Never Dries" as those vicious London critics have deemed the show. Rather more like "Sequels Never Easy" or perhaps "Webber Always Tries."
Oh, and about that second plot twist… Remember, it's "Phantom of the Opera." Get it? Opera, damnit!
