NORTHAMPTON, Mass., July 14 (UPI) -- A Massachusetts man was arrested after he allegedly gummed up the works at a pizzeria in Northampton.
According to police, Patrick Hogan ordered a pie from Mimmo's Pizza and got upset after waiting for over 30 minutes. Hogan "felt that it took too long. He said that he was out of here, that he wanted his money back," Captain Jody Kasper told MassLive.
A Mimmo's employee gave Hogan his money back and let him have the pizza as well, but Hogan felt that the worker threw the food and funds at him.
Angered by the alleged slight, Hogan tossed a gumball machine at the worker, hitting him in the leg.
The suspect then knocked over a cash register and threw a clock before attempting to "make his way around the other side of the counter."
The 24-year-old later allegedly got upset that another patron was recording the incident on his cellphone and punched him several times after a verbal argument. Hogan also smashed the 23-year-old's phone.
He was arrested for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, two counts of assault and battery, malicious destruction of property, larceny over $250 and vandalizing property.

Sen. Todd Akin calls for abortion on demand and free distribution of condoms. The CEO of Exxon decries global warming and demands an end to oil company subsidies along with new public investment in renewable energy. Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio calls for amnesty for undocumented workers.
Not likely, right? But the equivalent of these improbables just took place in international economics. The International Monetary Fund, for decades famed for inflicting harsh austerity policies on developing nations, now says, "Never mind," essentially admitting it got it wrong.
IMF Director Christine LaGarde is calling on European nations to ease austerity measures before they cause another global recession. "The fund warned earlier this week that governments around the world had systematically underestimated the damage done to growth by austerity," the Financial Times reports.
This extraordinary recognition of reality by the IMF raises an obvious question: Will Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and Republicans get a clue? The IMF's call is a direct repudiation of the harsh austerity policies it has been peddling. Just like the IMF, Romney is passionate about deep cuts in federal spending as well as tax reforms that do not lower revenues. (He claims now that he wants to lower rates across the board, but pay for them completely by closing loopholes.)
In addition, Romney and his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, rail against the Federal Reserve for printing money, for taking extraordinary measures to keep long-term interest rates low. They wax hysterical about the inflation ogre that is about to materialize at any moment and lay waste to the economy.
Romney even sent out a fundraising email savaging the Fed, claiming its newest round of "quantitative easing" was "another bailout." That "Barack Obama is at it again — spending your tax dollars to bail out his failed economic plan… money we can't afford for jobs we will never see."
Now, all of this is simply nonsense. Barack Obama has nothing to do with the Fed policy. The Federal Reserve is notoriously independent of the administration and Congress (and its chairman, Ben Bernanke, is a Republican economist who is basically pursuing what conservative guru Milton Friedman advocated: an aggressive monetary policy to counter recessionary currents). And the Fed isn't "spending your tax dollars." In fact, the Fed has been paying billions in profits back into the Treasury, reducing deficits – not adding to them. And we don't have to "afford the money" because the Fed is basically printing it.
Romney's combination of slashing spending and hiking interest rates would drive up unemployment, spread poverty and probably end up adding to deficits, as the economy moves back towards recession. Romney argues that the "confidence" that would come from his election would counter these effects. Don't bet the store on that. (There are precious few businesses that will bet even a new salary on it.)
Getting it Right
Last fall, President Obama called for passage of the American Jobs Act, which included investments in rebuilding schools and infrastructure, rehiring teachers and cops, and a jobs corps for veterans, among other things. It would be paid for by tax hikes on the wealthiest Americans. Independent analysts, such as Macroeconomic Advisers, estimated that it would create 2.1 million additional jobs.
Republicans – committed to slashing spending and austerity – killed the bill in the House, and filibustered it in the Senate.
The IMF turn is a big deal. If nothing else, it should be a wake-up call to governments and candidates across the world. The IMF is saying, essentially, that Obama got it right.
Will Romney, Ryan and Republicans get it? Will the "Gang of Eight" senators meeting with Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles, the Archdruids of austerity, take another look? Will Democrats stop plotting a grand bargain and start talking once more about how to get people back to work and the economy moving?
The Real Deal
In its latest World Economic Outlook (PDF), the Fund explicitly warns against "excessive fiscal contraction in the short term," while reiterating calls for a plan — including tax and entitlement reforms – that places "government debt on a sustainable path in the medium term." Contrary to Romney and Republican's braying on deficits, the U.S. doesn't have a short-term deficit crisis. We aren't Greece, and won't ever be.
The U.S. has to get the economy moving and then take sensible measures to makes its projected debt sustainable. That should involve progressive tax reform, raising taxes on the wealthy to produce more revenue. That's just the reverse of the Romney plan to lower rates, eliminate the estate tax and sustain the capital gains and carried interest tax loopholes that benefit the very wealthy (and enable him to pay a 14 percent tax rate).
And it should involve reforms to get our health-care spending, the driver of our long term debt problems, under control. Here, too, Romney and Ryan just get it wrong. This isn't about gutting Medicare and Medicaid. It's about fixing health care. Ryan's budget slashes Medicaid and turns Medicare into a voucher, doing nothing to control rising costs, only pushing more and more of them onto the very people least able to afford them: seniors, the disabled, the poor, the dying.
What we must address is reform of our broken health care system, which otherwise will bankrupt everything – companies, governments and families. That requires continuing on the path begun with Obamacare, which started to change how we deliver health care and put limits on insurance company excesses. Eventually, after exhausting all other alternatives, we'll get to where every other industrial country has ended up, with exactly what Republicans go nuts about: a "government takeover" of health care. Either through far more extensive regulation (think negotiating bulk discounts for prescription drugs, for example) or through extending a Medicare-like system across the population, we'll get there. If we spent what other industrial countries spend per capita on health care (with better public health results), we would RIGHT NOW be projecting surpluses as far as the eye can see.
The bastion of high finance, the IMF, has come out against austerity. Can Mitt be far behind? Look forward to the next debate, when Romney's new "etching" will no doubt have him denouncing the president for his jobs program, while suddenly offering up his own version to get the economy going.

Digital Agenda: how new EU telecoms rules would ensure easier and fairer access to telecoms services for customers
Telephone and internet customers enjoy significant new rights including more transparency, guaranteed quality of service and the right to switch operator within one working day under new EU telecoms rules due be implemented in national law in all Member States by 25th May 2011 (see IP/11/622). This MEMO explains the details of these new rights for customers.
Right to switch, in one working day, fixed or mobile phone operator while keeping the same number
Currently it takes on average four days for EU customers to switch their mobile operator and seven days to switch their fixed operator while keeping the same phone number, with some customers facing even longer delays. Under the new rules, customers have the right to do this in just one working day. This means customers will be able to shop around and take advantage of attractive alternative offers from telecoms operators with minimum inconvenience or interruption of service.
Contract duration
The new rules also make it easier for customers to switch phone operator, and so take advantage of more attractive offers, by preventing operators from binding in customers with contracts of three years or more. Instead, the maximum initial duration of a contract signed by a customer with an operator must be no longer than twenty four months. Operators must also offer customers the possibility of a contract with a maximum duration of twelve months, if the customer so desires.
Greater transparency on services available to customers
Under the new rules, operators must give customers better information to help them to make informed choices. In particular, operators must give comprehensive and accurate information to customers in advance - before customers sign a contract – about what they can or cannot do with the communications services to which they are subscribing.
For example, customer contracts must specify, among other things, information on the minimum service quality levels, as well as on compensation and refunds if these levels are not met, subscriber's options as regards listing in telephone directories and clear information on the qualifying criteria for promotional offers.
Internet service providers must, for example, inform their customers about possible restrictions on access to particular services (such as voice over internet services) or degradation of such services (e.g. by so-called 'bandwidth throttling'), actual connection speeds and possible limits on internet speeds. Customers should not be led to believe they can access services that in practice are blocked or degraded. Nor should customers be given misleading claims about connection speeds.
Better quality of internet services
The new rules require Member States' telecoms regulatory authorities to promote the ability of internet users "to access and distribute information or run applications and services of their choice" (Article 8(§4)g of the telecoms Framework Directive 2002/21/EC, as amended by Directive 2009/140/EC).
Under the new EU rules, national telecoms authorities also have the powers to set minimum quality levels for network transmission services so as to promote "net neutrality" and "net freedoms".
Internet service providers have powerful tools at their disposal that allow them to differentiate between the various data transmissions on the internet, such as voice or 'peer-to-peer' communication. Even though traffic management (such as 'bandwidth throttling') may allow premium high-quality services (such as IPTV) to develop and can help ensure secure communications, the same techniques may also be used to degrade the quality of other services to unacceptably low levels or to strengthen dominant positions on the market.
The Commission has asked the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications (BEREC) to undertake a rigorous fact-finding exercise on issues crucial to ensuring an open and neutral internet, including barriers to changing operators, blocking or throttling internet traffic (e.g. voice over internet services), transparency and quality of service.
The Commission will publish, by the end of 2011, evidence from BEREC's investigation. If BEREC's findings and other feedback indicate outstanding problems, the Commission will assess the need for more stringent measures.

In this game-day staple, blogger Matt Vensel makes four sometimes-courageous predictions for the game. All he asks is that you don't hold it against him whenever those predictions end up being embarrassingly wrong.
After back-to-back losses, the Ravens are at a crossroads. And the bad news is that the tractor trailer known as the Denver Broncos is barreling downhill at them at full speed. The Broncos have won eight straight games and are vying for playoff positioning with the Houston Texans, New England Patriots and Ravens.
Yes, believe it or not, the Ravens are still in the conversation. If they can beat the Broncos, who locked up the AFC West a couple of weeks ago, the Ravens will jump ahead of them for the No. 3 seed in the AFC. Crazy, I know. It seems like those two straight losses doomed them, but at 9-4, they're still in good shape record-wise.
Momentum-wise, and maybe more importantly, health-wise, not so much. Linebacker Jameel McClain has been ruled out for the game and fellow linebacker Ray Lewis won't play. It doesn't look good for Pro Bowl guard Marshal Yanda or safety Bernard Pollard, who did not practice this week. And I'm not even going to go there with linebacker Terrell Suggs, whom I predicted would play last weekend only to see him on street clothes.
I apologize for this in advance, but I could only see a lot of doom and gloom in my crystal ball when looking ahead to Sunday. The good news, though, is that I have been way off with my predictions in recent weeks.
I know this one is a no-brainer, that maybe the hottest quarterback in the NFL, Peyton Manning, will pick apart the banged-up Ravens defense for 300 passing yards. But the Ravens haven't allowed a 300-yarder passer in more than a month, and the last guy to do it, Carson Palmer, threw the ball 45 times to get there. That run should end Sunday, though, when Manning, who has won eight straight starts against the Ravens, throws to towering targets like Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker. Plus, unproven linebacker Josh Bynes will be wearing the green dot due to injuries. His chances of winning the chess match with Manning are not good.
The past few weeks have been tough for Baltimore's young offensive tackles, particularly Michael Oher, who has watched his guy knock the ball away from quarterback Joe Flacco in consecutive weeks. Bouncing back won't be easy against a Denver defense that has one of the NFL's top pass-rushing tandems in linebacker Von Miller and defensive end Elvis Dumervil. Dumervil has eight sacks this season, which is pretty good. Miller has twice as many, which is why he is considered to be one of the top contenders for the NFL Defensive Player of the Year award. I see him adding two sacks to his total Sunday. And if it gets ugly, it could be three or more.
With Jim Caldwell taking over for offensive coordinator Cam Cameron, who was fired on Monday, I think the Ravens will put a little more emphasis on running the ball. Then again, they probably would have anyway, as Rice's workload has picked up the past couple of Decembers. The Ravens hope their new coordinator will help them become an explosive offense by the time the playoffs start, but on this afternoon, I think they will try to shorten the game and play keep-away with Manning, and that means running the ball with Rice. And if they fall behind, Rice will be involved in the passing game, too. Either way, he will touch the ball 20 times.
This is maybe the biggest key to Sunday's game in my eyes. The Ravens, despite all their injuries and uneven play, rank first in the NFL in red-zone defense, only allowing touchdowns 40 percent of the time. The Broncos rank 10th in red-zone offense at 56.9 percent. Manning and the Broncos are going to move the ball at M&T Bank Stadium. We know that much. But if the Ravens can rally when their heels are touching their own goal line and hold the Broncos to field goals, they will have a chance. The woeful Oakland Raiders were able to do that a week ago. If the Ravens can keep it tight until the fourth quarter, they might be able to steal a win.

High-End Auto Upgrades to Splurge on, and Skip
More car buyers are splurging on heated seats. Rather than settle for the base model, they're paying a premium for luxury features. Extra costs, however, may not translate to long-term added value. Kelli Grant reports. Photo: Lexus.

Some games's UI does not scale
Posted: Sun Feb 04, 2018 3:50 pm
Besides the retro-feeling purpose, there are games that just have their user interface being bitmap-based and not scaled at all according to resolution, which is especially awful at such high resolutions as 4K (3840×2160).Zeus wrote:I'm surprised one would choose non-blurred upscaling over uprendering as this is clearly an inferior method.
Can't say for Glide games in particular, but there are a lot of such pre-4K-era games in general, e.g. main menu in Half-Life 2 gets tiny at 4K, same happens with toolbars in Cities XL Platinum that makes the game literally unplayable at 4K. Switching to a lower resolution helps, but then the picture gets blurry.
We would all appreciate nonblurry integer-ratio upscaling in nGlide that would make nGlide even greater.Zeus wrote:On the other hand, the thread at nVidia forums is now almost 3 years old and they clearly don't give a damn, so maybe you're right, maybe I should think about it...

I preached a sermon a few weeks ago on prayer. A few days after I preached this sermon on prayer, Jesus came to me one morning. It was just as plain as anything.
Jesus was telling me to quit complaining about these wicked leaders we have running our country and start praying for them.
This made me realize all the complaining I did did not do any good because our leaders kept coming up with one evil thing after another.
Praise the Lord, Jesus showed me he was the only one who could handle this situation.
