Most of us have our go-to recipes, be it for a mid-week lunch, a dinner party pleaser or a sumptuous cake that Nigella Lawson would be proud of. In case you're stuck in a food rut, however, here are some of our readers' fail-safe recipes from around the world to add your repertoire. Bon appétit!
Ayse Davies, UK
"We are a family of five with three children aged six to ten. All the kids love their food, especially Japanese, and will eat most things. We tend to eat mainly at home, but two or three times a month we head out for dinner with the kids for Western or Asian food."
Grilled Mustard Herb Salmon
"I'm actually not sure where I got this recipe from, but we use it a lot! It's healthy, delicious, super-simple and fast to make. My nine-year-old daughter loves it, and everyone who has tried it has asked for the recipe. We serve it with lemony couscous, and a mixed green salad or green beans."
Serves 4
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon minced shallot
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- ¼ teaspoon ground coriander
- Four 170g skin-on salmon fillets
- Kosher salt (coarse-grain) and freshly ground pepper
- Lemon wedges, for serving
- Preheat a grill pan. In a small bowl, mix the mustard with the shallot, dill and coriander. Season the salmon with salt and pepper and brush the mustard mixture over the fish, avoiding the skin.
- Grill the salmon skin-side down over a moderately high heat until the skin is crisp, about 5 minutes. Carefully turn the fillets and grill over a moderate heat until just opaque in the centre, about 4 minutes longer. Transfer the salmon to plates and serve with lemon wedges.
Way Ling Wiesser, UK
"I'm a mother of two and my husband is French. I'm a slave to the juicer, the blender and the wok and a firm believer that everyone can and should cook at home, and that kids should start in the kitchen from as early an age as possible."
Quick and Easy French Chocolate Mousse
"This is one of our standby sweet and indulgent favourites. It's posh enough to serve at a dinner party (if you dress it up a little), yet it's also bang on for an indulgent afternoon treat. It is quite rich, so it's better served inshooter-size glasses. Making the servings small also means that the kids aren't having too much sugar in one go.
It's a really great recipe for the kids to make with only a little adult supervision. In fact, I love it when my son helps as he is much more patient than I am at filling the small glasses, and does it so much better than I do! He takes his time and wipes off all the untidy drips, just like in the restaurants."
Note: Due to its raw egg content, this mousse should not be eaten by pregnant women, young children or the elderly.
Serves 10 (mini-portions)
- 200g good quality dark chocolate
- 400ml cream, whipped
- 4 eggs, separated
- 50g sugar
- Break the chocolate into pieces, melt in the microwave or in a bowl over a pan of simmering water, then set aside to cool down.
- Separate the eggs.
- Beat the egg whites until foamy, but not stiff.
- Mix the egg yolks with the sugar.
- Add the cooled chocolate to the yolk and sugar mixture. Stir well.
- Fold in a large tablespoon of whipped cream, followed by a large tablespoon of egg white, and repeat until all the ingredients have been used up. The mixture will look very liquid but will firm up in the fridge.
- Pour into small serving glasses, cover with cling film and refrigerate.
- Serve with raspberries and blueberries, or whatever takes your fancy.
- The secret to a great mousse is in the quality of the ingredients, so don't scrimp on the chocolate.
- Halve the recipe if you only want a small amount.
- You could substitute the dark chocolate with white or milk chocolate.
- A delicious, but time-consuming addition is to put a layer of berry puree in between the layers of mousse

A few years back I treated myself and went on a bakery course at The Bertinet Kitchen Cookery School in Bath, run by the amazing French master baker Richard Bertinet. Richard inspired me to take my baking to the next level, so I played with a few of my favourite recipes and subsequently started to push the boundaries a little and began to try some new 'bakes', which to date have all worked out really well. My chief tester/taster is my youngest boy, Ashley (Ash), who is any cooks best (or worst) critic.
The first time I made Portuguese Natas was back in 2014 and I've been making them ever since. Sadly, like most pastries that we love, they are really not that good on the old waistline, so I maybe don't make them quite as often as I would like to. Ash who is a 6′ 4″ giant of a lad, absolutely loves them and will gladly harvest a few to take to his office to snack on during the day at a busy accountancy firm on the Isle of Wight.
Part of the trick of taking this recipe to a higher level, is to roll out your pastry over a light dusting of icing sugar instead of flour. Some recipes suggest that you sprinkle the Natas with cinnamon or nutmeg – I prefer not to do this.
Pastéis de Belém na Pastelaria de Belém, Lisboa, Portugal
Ingredients Puff Pastry
- 200 g plain flour
- 200 g chilled unsalted butter – cut into cubes & into freezer for 15 mins+
- juice of 1/4 lemon
- 100 g water – very cold
Quick method
- Squeeze the lemon juice into the chilled water at the last minute.
- Place all ingredients into your Thermomix mixing bowl and mix 15 sec/speed 5
- Mix 10 sec/speed 2/Reverse Blade and turn out onto your work surface, well dusted with plain flour.
- The paste will be quite loose, so lightly dust with flour and very gently work into a brick shape.
- Fold the top third down to the centre, then the bottom third up and over that. Give the dough a quarter turn (to the left or right) and roll out again to three times the length. Fold again for a total of 9 turns.
- Chill for a minimum of 30 minutes wrapped in cling film before using.
For the crème patissière
- 350 g full-fat milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 egg yolks – large eggs, free range
- 80 g caster sugar
- 30 g plain flour
- Place all the ingredients into your Thermomix mixing bowl.
- Cook for 7 min/90oC/Speed 4
- Remove the crème pâtissière from the mixing bowl and scrape into a clean bowl with a silicone spatula.
- Cover the surface of the crème pâtissière directly with cling film (this will stop a skin forming). Leave to cool, then chill in the fridge until needed.
Putting it all together
- Lightly 'grease' a 12 hole silicone muffin tray by melting a little butter and brushing the inside of the cups.
- Remove your pastry from the fridge a few minutes before you roll it out.
- Dust your work surface with icing sugar which you have passed through a fine sieve.
- Roll out the pastry to around 4mm thick, lightly sprinkling the surface with more icing sugar as required.
- Using a straight sided pastry cutter, around 8cm in diameter and line the cups. – mine are about 3.5cm deep, so I have to roll each disc a little more
- Pop your muffin tray into the fridge and chill nicely for one hour.
- Pre-heat your oven to 200oC.
- Remove your muffin tray from the fridge and spoon some the chilled crème patissière into each cup, filling to near the top but don't overfill.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg if using.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the top of the pastry is golden as per the pictures above.
- Allow to cool in the muffin tray for 10-15 minutes before removing and place onto a cooling wire. If you leave them too long, the sugar coating on your pastry can caramelise and may start to stick to the sides of the cups.
- Allow to cool completely before eating – I say that, but these Natas really are so yummy that a few seem to disappear long before they are all cooled.
Malcy Tips
- You can, of course, use bought chilled or frozen puff pastry from your local store.
- If the custard puffs up in the oven, don't worry as it will sink down again as it cools.
- I love to put a little alcohol in my crème pâtissière – a few drops of brandy, white or dark rum or kirsch is always lovely.
- You should have a little quick puff pastry left over, so you might want to make a few tasty cheese snacks.
- The tarts will last for up to 2 days in an airtight box but they don't usually hang around that long in our house – nom, nom, nom!!!!

The General Manager provides a birds-eye view of happenings at the St. Francis Yacht Club
October 2017
Paul Koojoolian, General Manager/COO
Rolex Big Boat Series: Another great RBBS in the books! This year, we hosted nearly 90 boats and 900 sailors in 11 classes. The weather was perfect and the breeze kicked up every afternoon, allowing for superlative racing. Congratulations to Race Director Jenn Lancaster and her team—they were flawless and knocked it out of the park. Also, a huge thank you to regatta chair Susan Ruhne, co-chair Denis George, and their cadre of Race Committee volunteers (over 100 strong) who put on a world-class regatta. It is because of their Herculean effort that this regatta continues to be recognized worldwide. After the event, we received numerous kudos and accolades, several from longtime members with very high standards. My favorite comment of the bunch was a simple yet powerful sentiment: "I'm just so proud of our Club, and your entire team."
All About That Race: September wrapped up with some great eye candy at the Pac 52 Champs. I was fortunate enough to spend an afternoon on Bad Pak during one of their practices, and I have to admit it was one of the coolest things I've ever done. Special thanks to member Norm Davant and the crew of Bad Pak for inviting me to an experience I'll never forget. We've got a few more regattas to wrap up the season: Kilroy Realty Pro Am, Fall Dinghy and Jessica Cup. The Cruisers' Group reaches its pinnacle this coming month with their annual Bluewater Cruise to Monterey or Tamales Bay, led by Doug Thorne, the week of October 4.
Cruisin' Right Along: Going into Labor Day Cruise, we saw the Island was expecting temperatures exceeding 110 degrees, and we doubled down on preparations. We stocked the Island with water stations and misting barn fans to ensure our guests and the staff stayed cool and hydrated. Despite the challenge, the Cruise was a rousing success for the over 400 in attendance. Several members told me, "You guys thought of everything." Hot on its heels was the Women's Cruise where over 200 ladies enjoyed a weekend of delicious food, exercise, entertainment and camaraderie. Finally, Cruise season wrapped up with the 60th Anniversary Stag Cruise. Thank you to Tom Gilmore and his committee for planning and executing a wonderful weekend. The event capped off on Saturday with a delicious steak and lobster dinner, entertainment by Spirit of Santana, and fireworks that rivaled any July 4th display. A special shout-out to the Island staff for making sure all 500+ guests were well fed and watered all weekend.
That's a Wrap: Tinsley Island season came to a close this last weekend, with a new event, "Oktoberfest", which welcomed 150 guests plus five other clubs who cruised in. Nice job to Island Manager Ross Schiveley and his team for another awesome summer on the Island.
Fitness Room Facelift: The House Committee completed demos on fitness equipment from a variety of vendors and are nearing a decision on which upgraded equipment to purchase. The gym should be newly outfitted by the end of the calendar year.
Good Neighbors: On Wednesday, September 27, the San Francisco Marina held its annual tenant event outside the Harbormaster's office. St. Francis Yacht Club's Hannah Biehl and Jenn Lancaster contributed to the event by pouring wine and handing out fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies to the attendees. Our relationship with the San Francisco Marina has never been better. Special thanks to Harbormaster Scott Grindy for his continued support.
Youth Sailing: Tryouts for high school sailing took place last month and now the season is fully underway, keeping Adam Corpuz-Lahne and Brent Harrill very busy. Last month, StFYC paired with the St. Francis Sailing Foundation to host an Olympic Development Clinic out of the Clubhouse. Thank you to US Sailing for sending such great coaches and to Director Pamela Healy for organizing the entire event; it's a thrill to be at the epicenter of high-end youth sailing development.
Giving: On October 28-29, the Club will host its annual Call of the Sea Outreach Event, bringing sailing to hundreds of Bay Area children on the vessel Seaward. Thanks to TL Diepenbrock for continuing to make this great event a beloved tradition.
Club Events: October's Club Events include Fleet Week (October 6–8); Wednesday Live with Bob Veit (Oct 11); the Father Daughter Dinner Dance (Oct 21) and the Women's Fashion Show (Oct 25).
Ketch All: The Tinsley Island Ketch All is now closed for the winter—congratulations to Cheryl Galli on a great season! In the clubhouse, she is now preparing for a Fleet Week blow-out sale.
Why We Join: September's Membership Reception was held in the Starting Line Room (as opposed to the traditional Northwest Room) due to the sheer number of proposed new members. We welcomed 15 new members, all of whom shared wonderful stories about their impetus to join. Every month, I am touched to hear these stories—people want to join this club not for the free parking or the beautiful views, but because they have a passion for sailing or powerboating, and they want to be a part of a community that supports that, and offers opportunities to develop it. These membership receptions continue to be one of my favorite rituals at the Club, as they have a way of reminding us all what it's all about.
Wine & Dining: We've selected a new house Cabernet from Rutherford Vineyards, which will roll out this month. Next up, the Wine Committee will be endeavoring to select a new house Chardonnay. Our custom-designed wine label by Lourdes Livingston and Anna Hoit is getting affixed to the wine bottles as I write this, and it's spectacular. I'm excited for you all to see it and to try the new wine.
Reminder: the Main Dining Room will be closed on Saturday, October 21 for the Father Daughter Dinner Dance, and for lunch on Wednesday, October 25 for the Women's Fashion Show.

Perfect Winter Albums
The Unwound appreciation thread has got my thinking about Leaves Turn Inside You and how it is one of "those" albums...from start to finish something very special. IMHO a flawless collection of claustrophobic songs, consistent in tone, that build to the twin emotional peaks of Terminus and Below The Salt...the ultimate winter album
Whenever I think of Leaves Turn Inside You I am also drawn to three other similarly themed and similarly brilliant albums, namely:
Spiderland by Slint, I Could Live in Hope by Low, and The White Birch by Codeine.
All of these albums maintain a consistency of tone and quality throughout, that frame a peak, that complements what comes before and after rather than making the others look poor by comparison (Washer by Slint (other would probably say Good Monring Cap'n), Lullaby by Low, Ides by Codeine).
So I guess after that, what albums fit this sort of bill for ya'll?
yeah totally, that record alone evokes many similar ones
City of Caterpillar's self titled
post-rock stuff, Mogwai, Explosions, Godspeed etc.
nothing to do with Unwound though
I always find Clarity by Jimmy Eat World to be a pretty good example
To each their own
Kid A is brilliant but OK Computer is a masterpiece.
I also think Pablo Honey is one of their best albums, just to be controversial!
But OK Computer isn't wintery...
If anything it's more summery. Kid A sounds wintery.
The trials of van occupanther
The courage of others.
By The Cure...
...Seventeen Seconds, Faith and Pornography.
By Echo & The Bunnymen - Crocodiles, Heaven Up Here and Porcupine.
I like to imagine the early 80s as being permanently winterbound.
Permanently winterbound- exactly
Faith especially! Something about that gated snare sound is really bleak and lonely.
I'll add Chameleons- Script of the Bridge to your 80s nuclear winter playlist if I may
You may indeed
I almost included that myself :D
Darkthrone- A Blaze In The Northern Sky
Nico- The Marble Index
Nick Drake- Pink Moon
Big ^this for Spiderland too
nothing like some Nils Frahm
on a sunny, icy morning in winterignatz this'd this
The definition of perfection
I wish the vinyl version wasnt so expensive :(
Kate Bush - 50 Words for Snow
PE Hewitt Jazz Ensemble - Winter Winds
Gas - PopOissin_ this'd this
Cold House and Outside Closer both fit the bill nicely
Choose A Bright Morning
by Jeniferever for those cold but still winter mornings.
first Fleet Foxes
Lyrically and musically.
couldn't disagree more...though i loath them no matter what the season.
Oh sorry, I should have said
Seefeel - Succour
The Field - From Here We Go Sublime
But seriously, FF really does feel wintry. It even has cute lyrics about snow. What's not to like?
no probs...fleet foxes are just one of those nails on a chalk board bands for me...
Fennesz and Sakamoto - Cendre
Tim Hecker - Haunt Me
Johann Johannson - Englaborn
Thomas Koner - Permafrost
Zelienople - Give It Upfunkycow this'd this
The Sight Below - Glider
Emanuele Errante - Migrations
Sickoakes - Seawards
Echospace - The Coldest Season
Sleep Research Facility - Deep Frieze
Biosphere - Substrata
- Luis_Carruthers and theescapedslave this'd this
For Emma Forever Ago..
Also From a Basement on the Hill.
Wolf Parade - Apologies To The Queen Mary
Burzum - Filosofem
- Oissin_ this'd this
What an album
I'll listen to it now :)
Some great shouts
I'll add
Biosphere & Higher Intelligence Agency - Polar Sequences
Lanterna - Sands
Songs Ohia - Didn't It Rain
Mark Mulcahy - Fathering
and anything Mark Kozelek has ever put his name to
Hex Enduction Hour
I think "Winter" is the most perfect rendering of wintery-ness in music that I have ever heard. It doesn't sound like a romanticised version of winter, or a horribly hard winter, just ordinary British winter. But that sounds boring which it isn't in any way. And this version is one of the most perfect things ever recorded. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKI5NGFvCEQ
The rest of the album always sounds very wintery to me as well, especially the opening riff of "Fortress/Deer Park" and "Who Makes The Nazis?"

Hope's Dailure
This is going to sound so Birckenstockie-treehugging-earthy-crunchy-nutty but we haven't had a television for over a month (they've been fixing our roof so the cable is down) and it's been wonderful. I think when there's so much wallpaper noise it's hard to really hear things that are beautiful. For example classical music. It takes on an entirely different nuance. I am really appreciating listening to talk radio so much more and am able to understand (a bit) what it was like BEFORE tv, how one must use their imaginations so much more, picturing the face behind the voice or the different environments from which reports are coming. My kids complain that "we need" a tv. But I don't think so.

The classic n-queens problem asks for placements of just n mutually non-attacking queens on an n × n board. By adding enough pawns, we can arrange to fill roughly one-quarter of the board with mutually non-attacking queens. How many pawns do we need? We discuss that question for square boards as well as rectangular m × n boards.

The Woodlands, TX (PRWEB) May 25, 2012
Rigaku Americas Corporation today announced that the Department of Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, & Biochemistry at Brown University has chosen the Rigaku Ultimate HomeLab macromolecular crystallography diffraction system, equipped with a BioSAXS-1000 small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) system, for Brown University's structural biology center.
The purchase was funded by the generous support from the Office of the Provost and the Office of the Dean of the Alpert Medical School of Brown University. The structural biology center at Brown University is currently comprised of three faculty members, with additional faculty to be hired in the near future. It is being equipped not only with the new macromolecular crystallography diffraction and SAXS systems, but also with an 850 MHz NMR spectrometer with a cryoprobe to be delivered in November, 2012. A newly hired facility manager will ensure that all instruments are maintained to their highest quality and performance standards.
At the core of this system is the Rigaku FR-E+ SuperBright X-Ray source, a third generation true microfocus rotating anode generator, engineered to provide the highest power in a small X-ray beam.
The configuration will also include a Saturn 944 HG CCD detector - optimized for fast data collection for macromolecular crystallography, a VariMax HF Confocal X-ray optical assembly with an OpticAlignment computer-controlled alignment system and a BioSAXS-1000 Kratky SAXS camera system, which is specifically designed for scattering studies on protein solutions.
Commenting on the choice of Rigaku, Rebecca Page, Associate Professor of Biology at the Department's Center for Genetics, Genomics and Proteomics, explained, "We selected this system because it is the most powerful home source system available for both macromolecular crystallography and SAXS and will be the only one of its kind installed throughout the US "
The new instruments will also be available for outside users.
Catherine Klein, President of the Life Sciences Division at Rigaku, elaborated that, "what excites Rigaku about the new center is Brown's desire to include SAXS in their structural biology workflow. Having the Rigaku Ultimate HomeLab with the BioSAXS-1000 will allow Brown to take advantage of the complementary nature of macromolecular crystallography and SAXS to further the research goals for the new center. We look forward to the installation of these instruments and working with the Brown scientists to push the envelope of the mutual benefits of protein crystallography, SAXS and NMR."
The new system will be used for high-throughput protein crystal screening and data collection and also for performing small angle x-ray scattering experiments. The ability to carry-out SAXS measurements rapidly at home is a key advantage of the new system and will open up new areas or research.

I have a personal connection this week. 🙂 Enjoy.
"So I sit. He's on the backrest and I'm on the seat. We don't touch. We don't speak. We aren't even at eye level with one another. And today, for the first time since I came to this school, the courtyard isn't nearly so horrible after all." (221).
This reminds me of when I became friends with my friend Kevin. I had gotten out of an abusive relationship and school was like a war zone. Friends fled, strangers stared, I'm pretty sure rumors I was pregnant went around 4 different times (yet I never gained a pound!). When bathroom stalls no longer provide comfort and the voices of the unspoken speak louder than the chatter in the halls- you need a friend.
Back to my connection- Nastya really dislikes this school and I hated mine. She hides during breaks and tries to be completely alone because she's depressed and prefers to alienate herself. I would do that exact thing, whenever someone came up to talk to me was the downer of my whole day. When I found Kevin though, he gave me a place to sit. I hung with his group which eventually left but he always stayed- giving me a place to sit and suddenly my school didn't seem so utterly horrible anymore.
Love ya Kevin.
Hope you enjoyed my story.

The newest yarn is now in the shop. It's called "Grapevine." Here's a picture:
There's a pretty good amount of yardage in this one for as bulky a yarn as it is. There are about 174 yards and 5.1 ounces. I'm getting ready to work on a fun yarn project next, but am keeping the name and inspiration secret until it's done. You'll just have to check back to find out more! Better get busy...thanks for reading!

"Cinque Pieds Deux (Five Feet Two)" (#45332) is performed in both French and English by Patrick Louis "Dak" Pellerin, accompanying himself on the banjo. It's a rendition of a Percy Weinrich and Jack Mahoney song called "Has Anybody Seen My Gal? (Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue)" written in 1914. A rendition had gained popularity in 1925 and was still fairly popular by the late 20s. While his French is difficult to decipher, it does seem he changed the lyrics slightly between the two different verses.Cinq pieds deux, yeux de bleus,
Oh, ça ces cinq pieds peut faire.
Qui ça donc vous qui voir ma belle?
Nez troussé, bas roulés,
(O'lay), oui monsieur, l'un (de ceux),
Qui ça donc vous qui voir ma belle?
Là si tu vois une fille, cinq pied deux,couvert fourrure,bagues diamants, ça fait là pari ta vie, c'est pas (lui).Mais, quand (même lui) l'aime, (même lui) l'aime,L'aimait comme jamais voir.Qui ça donc vous qui voir ma belle?-----------Five feet two, eyes of blue,But, oh what those five feet can do,Has anybody seen my girl?Turned-up nose, turned-down hose,Flapper, yes sir, one of those,Has anybody seen my girl?Now if you run into, five foot two,Covered with fur,Diamond rings, all those things,Bet your life it isn't her.But could she love? Could she woo?Could she, could she, could she coo!Has anybody seen my girl?
Five foot two, eyes of blue,Oh, what five feet can do.Who has seen my beauty?Nose tucked up, (hose) rolled down,(O'lay!) Yes mister, one (of those),Who has seen my beauty?If there you see a girl, five foot two,covered in fur,diamond rings, bet your life,It's not (her).But, would she still love? she still love me?Love as you've ever seen,Who has seen my beauty?
His performances are probably the only example of real Cajun vaudeville type stuff ever heard.

I made this side table from a 18" X 14", $5 walnut slab and a 1 1/2" thick walnut board.
Top: I planed the top and bottom of the slab with my router sled planer and cleaned the sides of dirt and bark with a wire brush and sand paper. I cut one end with my circular saw and cut the opposite end parallel. To join the legs, I cut the mortises using a forstner bit and chisel. I sanded the top and eased the edges up to 220. There were a couple of checks on the top and bottom so I put five total walnut butterfly joints on the top (3) and bottom (2) of the table top. This was my first attempt at butterfly joints and I was very happy with the outcome.
Legs: I cut the legs and braces (?) from a 1 1/2" thick walnut board that I had left over from another project. I jointed and planed the final thickness of the legs to 1 1/4" square (more or less) and sanded to 220. I cut the tenons to attach to the table top using my table saw and sled and chisels. Originally I was going to make the mortises and tenons for the braces square like the tops of the legs and then decided it was easier to leave the mortises in the sides of the legs circular (forstner bit) and turn the tenons on the ends of the braces on my lathe. This was also my first attempt at mortise and tenon joinery and both methods turned out pretty well… Although I have more than enough room for improvement.
Assembly and Finishing: After tweaks to the tenons here and there to ensure everything was square, I assembled and glued (Titebond III) the legs and braces first to make it easier to apply the finish. I applied Natural Danish Oil and a few coats of wipe on satin poly to the legs and top separately and attached the top once they were completely dry and to my liking.
All-in-all I was very happy with this project. As always, I welcome feedback and tips.
Thanks for taking a look.

Love it! I just bought two slabs, and I'm trying to figure out how to make a router jig to plane as well.

The Seven Lottery Secrets Revealed
There are lies we are told, and there are lies we tell ourselves. There is no subject where this is truer than the lottery. Whether it's a little white lie or a full blown Whopper, we seem willing to believe. So, I have the Lotto Lie series written to clear the air.
The first lottery lie is the comment of the classic skeptic.
Lotto Lie Number One – There is nothing you can do to improve your chances of winning the lottery.
In the lottery lie # 1 article, I suppose the skeptics on the head. I met them with everything they do not like; Reason, logic and facts.
It probably will not have much effect on them, but you will probably like them squirm as I put my case.
The first lottery lie is actually quite naive. Like so many other games, such as Blackjack, Roulette, Craps and Texas Hold'em is the lottery is a game of chance. And like all gambling, the pro player has a distinct advantage over the novice; he knows how to play the game. If you agree with this, you should enjoy Lotto Lie # 1 item.
The second lie Lottery article focuses on the word "random". The word "random" is so misused, abused and misunderstood that I classify it as a lottery secret. So, read the lottery Lie # 2 items and all will be revealed.
Lotto Lie Number Two – The lottery is a random game of chance.
Blackjack, Roulette, Craps and Texas Hold'em have all but random luck games were called. So why is it that professional players do quite well on these games? Could it be they something we do not? If this is true, why thelottery should be any different? Is not it. Read 2 items in Lotto Lie # and discover why professional players see the words' random gambling "as an opportunity.
The lottery Lie # 3 Item sells the myth that the lottery a fair game. At first, you can accept it and move only the statement. But if you stop and think about it a second, many questions come to mind like "Who says so?" and "why." In fact, when you see how many lottery strategies there begin, you will see the game is not fair at all.
Lotto Lie # 3 – The lottery is a fair game. The odds of winning the lottery are the same for all.
Of course, the state lottery officials must say it is a fair game just like the casino operators must say, the blackjack tables are fair. But, you know that this simply is not true. Would you think it was fair if Doyle Brunson sat down at your table Texas Holdem? Although, it would be fun, you know where your money is going to end up. The lottery Lie # 3 article is a real eye opener.
The lottery Lie # 4 article addresses another common myth about the lottery: A computer can not help your chances of winning thelottery jackpot. Well, you guessed it. Another lie bites the dust.
Lotto Lie # Four – A computer will not help to improve your chances of winning the lottery jackpot.
I've heard this a lot. It amazes me that otherwise intelligent people would make such a silly statement. Think about it. Is there something in our lives today that the computer has not helped? It has created the internet, mobile telephony, sent robots to Mars, unravels the genetic code, but can not help you improve your lottery game! You'll enjoy 4 article really the lottery Lie #.
There are skeptics who say that using a computer for lottery number analysis is a waste of time. Of course, they have never tried, but are convinced that they are experts in this field. If they had taken the time to look around, they'd be shocked, lottery trends and patterns can be found on every corner. They are everywhere, like agates on the beach. This brings us to Lotto Lie # 5
Lotto Lie Number Five – There are no such things as lottery trends.
Did you know that there are people who look a unique opportunity to gain a number Lotterys history and look to own lottery number patterns and trends? They are few and far between, and I admit, I have not a clue how they do it. Just thinking about it makes me to look for a bottle of Motrin. But give me a computer and I'm going to find trends and patterns all day long. The lottery Lie # 5 article you will get your juices flowing.
Have you ever deal with something holier than thou, sanctimonious self-appointed example of human purity, down his nose at you because you are in desperate need of redemption. Well, I have some fun with the lottery in the Lie # 6 articles anointed among us. I'm sure they will not look that way, because their heads are so far up in the clouds, it's a wonder she can breathe. If you have ever met someone so, you will take great pleasure in reading the Lotto Lie # 6 article.
Lotto Lie Number Six – people should not play the lottery, because that's gambling.
So, it's gambling. So what? It is fun, exciting and easy to play and if played responsibly, it is cheap and not cause financial losses to play for everyone. So what are you waiting for? Start the bubble machine and leave us a drawing.
Well, if someone does not play because of an intimate religious faith, I'm fine with that, and even to respect their decision. But if a hypocrite he expects somehow superior and tries to lay claim to some moral ground, then I have to calm down and write something like Lotto Lie # 6 only for them. I hope you enjoy the lottery Lie # 6 articles as much as I enjoyed writing it.
There seems to be no shortage of skeptics and critics who enjoy their contempt to the use of lottery software, a player express to improve chances of winning the lottery. They think it's all basically nonsense. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, from the analysis of the stories of the winning numbers from all lottery, the skeptics and critics fall back on what they think is their trump card. With lottery software is fraud. That's Lotto Lie # 7; Subject of the last article in the series is lottery.
Lotto Lie # Seven – If you use lottery software, you are cheating.
There is no question that with quality lottery software a serious lotto players can benefit from. But is not fraud. Without predictions and forecasts the economy, industry and government would come to a standstill. All professional players for a game.

This is not an op shop find but I'm excited as I received it this morning over a coffee with my girlfriend who decided to brush the dust off her machine and whipped this up for Kitty. Of course it was frantic undressing mid flat white, my impatience does not do 'waiting until we get home'. The fabric is beautiful and it fitted perfectly. Well done Alecia, you are pure genius!
Pop to Sophie's for more bargain treats.

Information Overload: Do As I Say, Not As I Do?
"I don't really spend that much time on e-mail…" "E-mail sometimes overwhelms my day."
These two perspectives sound as if they represent two polar extremes in the knowledge workforce, but they actually are coming from the same people.
In a series of surveys and interviews by Basex, over the past year, we found some interesting trends in how knowledge workers are impacted by Information Overload, and what they are doing about it.
But we also found that what the survey respondents tell us in surveys is directly contradicted by what the same people tell us in telephone interviews.
After conducting a series of surveys that reached a total of 1000 knowledge workers at a large North American company, we would like to share with you some initial analysis, as well as out thoughts on some contradictory data we received.
From our surveys, we found that knowledge workers at the company were spending a relatively low amount of time reading, writing, and managing e-mail messages. Specifically, around 50% spent 15-30 minutes reading e-mail and 15-30 minutes writing e-mail. Around 65% also spent 15-30 minutes managing their inboxes. We took the low numbers to be a positive sign in that it didn't indicate an e-mail-obsessed work culture. Additionally, when specifically asked about sources of Information Overload, very low numbers of respondents felt e-mail was a significant problem.
Surveys are typically one of several parts of our research process, in this case the second part. It was when we got to the third part, one-on-one interviews, that alarm bells started sounding.
Interviewees consistently reported rampant overuse of e-mail in the form of excessive cc'ing and bcc'ing. In addition, the use of attachments in e-mail messages in lieu of using one of the company's document management platforms was a clear problem.
The contradiction between what knowledge workers reported in the survey and what they said in interviews is intriguing, and may simply be a function of the format. When filling out a survey, answers must fit into the rigid format of the survey, without room for nuance. In an interview, there is more room for conversation that allows for ideas to be expanded.
Knowledge workers were also asked to tell us what methods they used to deal with Information Overload. The top three responses were all very personal actions, meaning actions taken on a personal level that do not necessarily extend to teams or work groups.
The following were the top three techniques that survey respondents reported using when dealing with Information Overload:
1.) Focusing on work and limiting self-interruptions (84.5%).
2.) Use of productivity and time management systems (33.4%).
3.) Using better search techniques (33.1%).
While all three selections are valid ways to address Information Overload, the problem is that some of the most effective methods are more group-based. Those techniques were selected by low numbers of respondents
For example, indicating one's up-to-date presence information via instant messenger has been found to be an effective way to minimize interruptions when adopted on an organizational level, yet only 14.7% of respondents reported using that technique. Additionally, turning off e-mail notifications is a highly effective method of focusing on work and not constantly checking one's inbox; however for employees to feel comfortable in doing this, there must be a top-down understanding of expected e-mail response times. Only 12.3% of respondents indicated that they turn off e-mail notifications.
It's clear that the knowledge workers at this company suffer greatly from Information Overload-related issues. What's compelling about our findings here is that it's clear that surveys without significant follow-up via interviews can result in significant underreporting of the problem.

Farming the Valley
For two millennia, East Meon was an agricultural community, in which all other trades existed to support the farmers, their families and workers. In 2016 the History Group started a project researching the history of farming, and our findings form the basis of this report, which covers the periods from 10,000 BC to 2,000 AD. The medieval hundred embraced Steep, Froxfield and the tithing of Ambersham in West Sussex. Our research has concentrated on the bowl defined by the South Downs to the south of the village and, to the north, by the boundaries of Privett, Froxfield, and Steep.
"Farming the Valley" is an account of this history. Each chapter summarises the research into a period of our history; for those who require more information on any topic, there are links to PDFs of more detailed research reports most of which contain references and source materials for our findings.

- The two strength areas that I chose that I think I scored high in are; work and social support. I think I scored high in social support because I think of myself as a very social and outgoing person. I come from a big family of 10 people living with me, so I feel as if my social support at home is very large in a sense of I always have someone I can go to for support and help on things. I also think I have a big variety of friend groups, I was never the type to just stick with a couple of friends, I like to have a range of people I can go to for things. Also having a boyfriend being your best friend as well has helped me a lot the past 5 years with situations I could never have dealt with myself, I find myself very grateful when it comes to the love and support a person needs in their life.
Scoring high in the work area had me a little confused as to why I was so happy in that field, but then I got to thinking more about it and I realized that working and doing something with my life instead of just being at home all day has me very happy. I got my first job at 18 and now I could never imagine not working. looking back to myself being a couch potato and not doing anything during the day, I wasn't very happy with myself, I knew I could do better than this, so I ended up getting a job and making money that I never thought I would make. It was a great feeling, and now I never want to go back to not working, I enjoy working, I've made friends with people I know will last a life time and that makes me extremely happy.
2. The two areas that stood out for me that are pretty much the only two areas that I noticed dropped in happiness are; community and time balance. Reading those two, I had no idea what they meant, reading their descriptions I got a better insight of why I scored less in these fields. For community, I think I didn't get a high score, because yes, even though I consider myself outgoing, when it comes to giving back to the community or helping with fundraisers etc, I find myself being really shy connecting with people in my community, so I think that's definitely one of my weaknesses when it comes to being happy with my community.
The second area that I didn't score very high in is, time balance. This one I can see where I wouldn't score as high because I feel as if I need to make time for more important things in my life. Seeing my grandparents more, taking on more shifts at work, going to the doctors more for check-ups etc. I think sometimes I need to realize the more important things in life and make more time for them every day, I need to start realizing what's in my life and how I need to keep it there before it goes, and not watch it slip away every day.
a) 3-4 helpful classes that will help me improve or increase my personal happiness will be week 6- Meditation, week 7- Positive Emotions, Week 8- Compassion, and lastly week 10- enjoying life. I am hoping I will get a more positive outlook after being in class in these weeks.
b) 3-4 helpful classes are week 7, week 10, week 11 and week 8. The one I chose that stood out for me and I'm actually looking forward to this class, is week 10. I read that this week we will learn a lot about enjoying life and the well-being in life. I think what I need to gain from this week's class is just looking at life better, taking bad situations and seeing the good from, not blaming other people or putting your bad moods onto other people. I want to start believing that I'm going to be living a long, healthy life and I also want to stop seeing the bad news on to and believe that everything will be better eventually.
- – What I learned about happiness by completing this entry is that happiness comes from everything we do in our everyday life. Everything we do and say defines whether or not we are happy. The way we see things, the way we say things, the way we do things, it's all about whether or not you are happy, anything can make you happy or sad.
- What I learned about my own happiness from this entry was, when it comes to most things in my life I am a generally happy person, but at the same time I still feel as if I can improve and gain more happiness in life by getting myself out there more and stop looking at the bad so much in life.
- The one thing that stands out for me in this entry is that work is a big part of my happiness and I couldn't agree more. working makes me feel more responsible and I feel as if I learn something new every day at work which also makes me feel more educated at the same time, without work now, I would feel useless and as if I wasn't doing anything good with myself. Im happy im a working girl and love doing what I do as a career.
- How I can use my success and strengths in my future entries is using my experiences and my happiness to get me through life. Doing these entries makes me look at my life a lot different because I like to see results in my tests and I like to learn and gain more knowledge of what I need to improve on etc. so reading my results is going to let me use my experiences I have and gain more experience because I know now what I have to do in the future.

June 28, 2016: US Gulf Coast Unprepared for "The Virus from Hell"
This from Robert Ferris at CNBC. "Zika stands to infect 4 million Americans by the end of the year, and the number of children born with conditions related to the disease may one of the biggest impacts on child health care since HIV and AIDS in the 1990s.
"That is the verdict drawn by Peter Hotez, the dean of Baylor College of Medicine's National School of Tropical Medicine, in a special
bq. communications article published online by JAMA Pediatrics. Hotter called Zika "the virus from hell," for what it does to the developing brains of unborn babies.
"The birth defect known as microcephaly has been widely publicized since public health officials connected it to the virus earlier this year. However, doctors and scientists are just beginning to grasp the range of effects the disease has on fetuses and developing children, and that microcephaly is just the 'tip of the iceberg,' Hotez said.
"Zika causes microcephaly because it attacks the stem cells that become brain cells. In babies affected by the virus, the brain simply does not develop. The developing skull simply 'implodes' around the brain, which is only developing minimally.
"'So I think people don't often appreciate how devastating Zika virus is,' Hotez said. Because the virus appears to attack the neural stem cells, there is a range of potential effects beyond microcephaly that are possible, and that we simply have not seen yet. Children may even be vulnerable to the effects if they are infected after they are born, since the brain continues to develop in infancy.
"Hotez said he fears the disease is already gaining a foothold in the Gulf Coast region and is calling for more monitoring of vulnerable areas.
"'My concern is that Zika could already be here on the Gulf Coast, it is just that nobody is looking, because none of the country and local health departments have funding to conduct active surveillance,' Hotez told CNBC in an interview. 'So I am quite worried that Zika is already here, and that we have no programs in place to actively look for it.'
"There are three things that contribute to a Zika outbreak: the presence of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, crowded human dwellings, and poverty. The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is also capable of spreading the disease, but is far less efficient than its relative.
"All three conditions are present in many cities across the Gulf Coast of the United States. The combined population of Houston and Galveston, Texas, along with New Orleans and the entire state of Florida total about 60 million people, the article noted. Out of that, about 1 million pregnancies could be at risk for the virus.
"This includes educating the public about getting tests for the disease if symptoms such as fevers arise, as well as more aggressively testing mosquito populations. It is also going to require a cohort of pediatricians and pediatric neurologists to sort out the effects, and new programs will need to be put in place to assist the children who live with the effects of the disease.
"Hotez is also skeptical that a vaccine will come to market any time soon, despite news reports on Monday that one has been approved for human trials."

Acer Aspire 5810TZ :: Flashing BIOS - Boot It Up And It Just Showing LogoMar 13, 2013
Flashing the bios. I have a Aspire 5810TZ. I boot it up and it just says 'acer' and won't go any further. I went to the download page for BIOS on us.acer.com and it has a zip file with 5 files:
JM4151135.exe FLA... GPC_V135.bin readme.txt FLASH.BAT
What do I do? I have tried copying the files to a USB and powering on with Fn-Esc held down. After letting go of the power button and holding Fn-Esc a different screen appears after 30 seconds. I let go and have given it 30 minutes but it is not doing anything. I have read online from other people the power button should be blinking. Do I need to rename one of the files.

Ofcom to probe high cost of directory enquiry calls
Telecoms regulator Ofcom says it is "very concerned" about the rising cost of calling directory enquiries and plans to examine the situation.
One popular enquiry service - 118 118 - recently increased its prices to a minimum of £8.98.
But Ofcom says some firms charge even more than that - up to £10.50 a call.
In a previous enquiry the watchdog decided against imposing a stipulated price cap on such charges, but it could now review that decision.
Under the current system operators are therefore free to charge up to a maximum of £23.97 for calls of less than a minute.
Anyone calling 118 pays two separate charges:
- A flat-rate connection fee, which Ofcom says is typically up to £7.
- A per-minute charge of up to £3.50. However, Ofcom says some providers "may charge significantly more".
In addition, there is an access charge of up to 50p a minute from the telecoms operator.
"Ofcom is very concerned about the rising prices of some 118 numbers, and we are already planning to review this market to ensure prices are transparent and fair to consumers," an Ofcom spokesperson said.
It said it would announce further details soon.
'Shock bills'
Some 118 services are far cheaper: Verizon UK, for example, charges a flat rate of 35p a call.
Other phone services that carry advertising and automated responses are free.
Many internet services are also free to users.
However, Citizens Advice said the current system leaves elderly people particularly vulnerable to high call charges.
It said one client had called them after receiving a £150 bill for calling a 118 number.
"Often it is unclear just how expensive a call can be," said Gillian Guy, chief executive of Citizens Advice.
"Elderly people who aren't confident using the internet are most at risk of shock 118 bills because they use these services to find information instead."
Ofcom said it was also aware of one consumer who called directory enquiries in 2009, and ended up with a bill for £350.
Alex Neill, of Which?, said the true costs of using directory services should be clear.
"Our advice to consumers looking to avoid being hit with these exorbitant charges is to check online for a cheaper, more direct way to obtain a contact number," she said.
'Failure of choice'
Operators add additional costs if consumers agree to be connected directly to the number they asked for, rather than dialling the number themselves.
Typically they are charged at up to £3.50 a minute for the service.
When directory enquiries was deregulated in 2003, calls to BT's 192 service cost just 40p.
David Edmonds, head of Ofcom's predecessor Oftel, claimed consumers would get more choice and "real competition on price".
By 2010, calls to the two dominant providers - 118 188 and 118 500 - cost at least £2 and have continued to rise since then.
A study by Rufus Pollock, a research fellow at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, described the deregulation as "a failure of choice".
The company behind 118 118 said it offered a no-frills telephone service for £1, and a free service on the internet.
In a statement, it said that it "strives to account for the diverse needs of its customers by offering a range of services at different price points."

At the end of last season one team gained what I would consider an unfair advantage by loaning 20 rated players for a very important game. I presume that these players were loaned from teams that had nothing to play for although I haven't checked. The opposition manager rightly complained but it was too late for me to do anything by then. I'm now hoping to have something in place to stop it occurring this season if I can.
Anyway, I need a way of stopping this so am looking for ideas. The only one I have so far is to disable loans for the final 4 or 5 weeks of a season when the important games are. I don't particularly want to disable transfers but just disabling loans may not be a bad idea.
In the future when I have implemented the new ratings and player salaries then it may be something that managers don't want to do anyway but it can always be reviewed once they are in place.

New Life 2
The other day
my husband was cutting the lawn.
We noticed a clump of grey-brown bedraggled former plant life
which huddled under the window of the den
almost unnoticed, forgotten.
Realising that the patch would look better
if it were rid of this deadness
I began to pull it away.
It came unresisting out of the earth
glad maybe that is was going to offer new life
on the compost heap.
I caught my breath after a couple of handfuls
because underneath
strong verdant green shoots
were standing there
waiting for a summons
into their rightful space
in the order of new birth.
They had grown faithfully
(in my defence, the eye is drawn beyond them
to the confluence of two rivers and the Great North Sea)
(in my defence, the ear is drawn beyond them
to the tow of the waters meeting)
uncared for
(to my shame).
What they taught me is
that new life springs up
irrespective of
or hearing,
or tending.
New life springs up
that is its purpose
that is its nature
for this came it into the world.
It is our privilege
to notice
to listen
to care for it

"I have always loved the desert. One sits down on a desert sand dune, sees nothing, hears nothing. Yet through the silence something throbs, and gleams…"
– Antoine de Saint-Exupéry –
When you go to Colombia's Tatacoa Desert, no one is going to go with you. Among travelers, it's one of those "Why are you bothering to go there?" kind of places. You can't answer this question, you just know that the desert calls you.
The day you go from San Agustin to the Tatacoa Desert will be an adventure. All the workers at the bus companies in town will laugh at you for thinking you can get a direct bus to take you anywhere near there. Nope, it's going to take several vehicles and several hours and you'll be lucky if you get there before the sun goes down.
As you sit in a minivan headed toward Pitalito, you wonder if you even should've left lovely little San Agustin and that lovely eco-hostel filled with great people. But this rickety minivan is gliding forward along the edge of a mountain and it's too late to jump out now. Besides, your days in Colombia are winding down so you gotta keep moving.
You've barely got time to set your feet down in the Pitalito bus station before people rush you over to another even more rickety minivan. Your van driver has communicated to another driver that there is a turista going to Neiva. There is one more spot on a Neiva-bound minivan and they're saving it for you.
They quickly move your backpack from one van to the other. The attendant takes out a weather-worn booklet of tickets and hands you one as you hand over your pesos. Your spot on this van is half of a seat between the driver and a large man. Your task is to try not to panic the entire way. Out of all the passengers in the van, you have the best view of the unpaved road and the maniacal driving of everyone on it, including the driver sitting next to you.
You are thrilled to safely arrive in the dusty, busy little city of Neiva. But seriously, by now, you really should know better than to be relieved until you actually reach your destination. Neiva is not your destination.
After asking around to find transportation to Villavieja, you catch a ride in a large pickup truck collectivo where most of the seating is on benches in the cargo bed. But you're lucky enough to be one of the first passengers so you get an actual seat. Yes, a seat!
Neiva is a ugly place made beautiful by the homeyness and friendliness of its people. Most people in this vehicle seem to know each other and they welcome you into their little transportation family. The Huila Department has vastly different landscapes — from the cloud forested mountains around San Agustin to the desert you're headed to — but the one constant that flows through the region is kindness.
The truck empties as people return to their homes on the outskirts of the city and beyond. The truck's final stop is Villavieja, a little town at the edge of the desert. But how do you get into the desert?
The sun is in pursuit of the horizon and you know chances of finding transport into the desert at this time are slim. Panic arises, the kind you get when you doubt your independence and wonder why you don't just do things the easy way. But there is no time to dwell in panic, you have to act quickly.
Before you get off the truck, you ask the driver how to get into the desert. He says he can take you in for a price that's astronomical for Colombia considering the distance. It will be a 15 minute drive but it's about three times the cost of the hour ride from Neiva to Villavieja. Looking around the empty little desert town of Villaveija, you know this is your only option to get to the Tatacoa desert. So you fork over the pesos and he drives you into the desert.
The desert is empty. It's golden. It's glorious. The warm desert hues are even more radiant in the evening sun. You are nervous about going into such a desolate place on your own. You are exhilarated about going into such a desolate place on your own.
Dogs bark wildly as the driver pulls into a dirt driveway. He tells you this is the guesthouse you requested to be dropped off at. I looks like someone's rustic desert home. A man comes out and he looks stunned to see that a visitor has arrived.
As you grab your things from the truck, he asks you which room you want to stay in. You have your pick of the lot — every single room is available. You pick a small private room with a private bathroom. It's hot inside and as bare bones as a room can be. When you turn on the sink, you hear the water pouring onto the ground just outside your room. Desert livin'.
You lay out your still wet laundry from San Agustin knowing it will dry up fast, and go for a walk to explore the desert before the sun goes down. You see a rainbow and cacti and glimmering clouds. You see picturesque rust colored eroded landscapes that look like a miniature Grand Canyon. You see no one.
Back at the guesthouse the family is making dinner. They have you sit at the visitors' table. Tonight, it is just you. Three generations of the owner's family eat at the family table. But little girls in the family aren't satisfied with being stuck at the family table. They come to your table and ask you question after question. They are fascinated with the curious stranger. They say your name over and over again as if repeating it will make it less foreign. They giggle and play around you and make you smile.
After dinner you return to your guest room which you now realize is powered by solar electricity. The single, dimly lit lightbulb that hangs from the ceiling barely lights up the room. You were hoping to stay out and look up at the stars, but your stargazing plans are foiled by clouds. So you stay in your room and read by flashlight for awhile before calling it a night. Sleep tight, don't let the sand flies bite.
You wake up before the sun rises; before the desert becomes unbearably hot. You go for a walk in the opposite direction of the previous evening. Again, the desert glows, the desert is melancholic, the desert is poetic.
When you researched the Tatacoa Desert before you went there, you saw that its name can be translated to Sadness Valley or Valley of Sorrows. Now that you're here, the desert's name seems fitting. It looks like a forlorn, lonely place.
But it's not a sadness that festers and explodes. It's a beautiful, calm, cathartic sadness. In all that wide, sad, open desert, you confront yourself. You embrace the simultaneous melancholy and magnificence of the world, of life, of yourself. Immersed in the desert's palpable harmony of beauty and sadness, you feel at peace. You know why the desert called you.
"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well."
– Antoine de Saint-Exupéry –

• Generators can be applied during peak times of day to avoid high utility charges.
The Yancey Power team provides customized power solutions, including the required mechanical equipment and controls to capture and transfer engine thermal energy. We also offer exhaust emissions for highly regulated emission environments, and utility grade Cat paralleling switchgear to sell excess electricity generated to the local electric grid.

Elois Gurske: Best Video Games For Play Station Fans

- Published date: November 20, 2015

December 14, 2014 - Many individuals feel that video games should be played only by children. This, however, is not true! There are lots of games on the market adults may enjoy, including those with exercise and army themes. The field of gaming is large, and in this particular article are ideas to help.
Take time to think carefully before choosing which gaming console you will buy. Assess your preferences carefully, after which examine the various consoles to get the best match for you. Also, the Internet can be a very valuable source because of this information. Go over various reviews with the consoles that others have posted. Before buying a console, become knowledgeable.
Don't just toss away your old game titles. Lots of stores nowadays prefer to purchase those older games and provide cash or even a trade for something newer. You can use store credits out of your old games to look towards the acquisition of new ones.
In order to find inexpensive games or mouse click the next site to your kids, watch out for liquidation or going-out-of-business sales for local business owners. Sadly, game retailers are struggling today. If you are lucky, there may be one closing near you that will have great sales on game titles. While the discs should be in condition, a quick clean works wonders.
Many game titles offer quite a bit of downloadable content, or DLC. They give you new levels, weapons, maps and much more. You should not pay an arm and a leg for a game. Sometimes the information can multiply the game's costs.
Consider downloading games online. Plenty of games, particularly older ones, could be played online for free. You can enjoy winning contests this way as much without spending $40 to $60 per game.
Check out online video game review forums before purchasing game titles. These forums are an excellent source of information. You will find the reviews in all honesty as not one of the forum members are paid through the developers. They'll give honest reviews that you could trust.
Ask for some help from gamers or employees with a video game store. Many individuals enjoy a specific form of game; however, they won't be aware of any new games. Most gaming employees have a good working familiarity with the current, and older games, that'll be helpful to you.
Gamers are continue right along with the gaming industry. Today, gamers expect to have access to inexpensive and varied gaming options. In the event the price of a new game seems excessive, delay you buy for a couple of months. The price will go down, often in the short period of time, since the makers wish to keep producing up to possible.
Before choosing a game for a child, make sure the game's ESRB rating is suitable for that child's age. The sport might appear child-friendly, but then a whole new can of worms reveals once the game is played. Consider the rating and choose games that wont expose your kids to violence, sexual content or bad language.
Consider price when you are looking for a new game. Just because the price is high, does not mean the quality is really as well. Check the box and figure out if it looks appealing. It's also wise to spend some time considering reviews online or even in magazines before purchasing. You ought not buy a game you may not know if you'll like or not.
Understand what your game ratings mean. Game titles are no longer only for children, so not every game remains safe and secure for all ages. The ratings begin with Early Childhood (EC) and progress upwards towards the most graphic or violent rating of Adults Only (AO). You should always be purchasing games that are appropriate for anyone's age.
These days, a lot of popular video games offer a great deal of downloadable content (commonly called DLC). These be more expensive and enhance the game. You shouldn't pay a leg and a leg for a game. Sometimes buying DLC games could be two to three times more expensive than a single game.
If you are selling some old video games, there are plenty of web sites that will draw some fascination with what you are offering. Avoid using auctions like eBay; only achieve this if you have few other options. There are lot of times, however, where there are shipping problems or people who won't pay on auctions. Try Craigslist, or use the marketplace app on Facebook.
Gamers should always decide whether playing on a computer or console is most advantageous. Most favored titles are let go on more than one platform, but some niche titles are freed only on PC or perhaps a specific console. You will sometimes find that you enjoy playing on one or two platforms a lot more than you enjoy playing on others.
Game titles are much more fun if you know what it is you are doing! No matter what kind of game you prefer, it is made. Search for the games you have interest in, then sit back and have a large amount of fun. This is actually the most fun activity ever! co-author: Terry X. Covey
