It is a great deal to get HTC phone with 1.5 and 1 GHz octa core processor. A very sleek designed phone with 13 MP rear camera 8 MP front camera HTC Desire makes a mark in market of style and performance. UI of HTC Desires is worth using and designed with a user friendly approach. 5.5 inch screen is a plus point, but a little drawback of semi HD screen which makes the gaming experience a bit dull. Boom Sound Speaker makes the voice quality and music experience exceptional. Already incorporated with 4G feature, it comes with WiFi, 3G, Bluetooth. Battery capacity is 2600 mAh, which can work for 24 hours. Dual SIM (GSM+LTE), expandable storage upto 128 GB makes it outstanding.
The flagship product of Google Nexus 4 which is the only phone from Google ranging under 25000 rs comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Processor, which gives a wonderful gaming experience. The 4.7-inch screen designed with 320ppi, comes with Cutting-edge G2 Touch Hybrid technology which is very smooth to touch and operate, the display screen of the phone is protected by scratch resistant Corning Gorilla Glass 2. The NFC enabled phone will not heat up while using multi screen or playing games. 8MP rear camera and 1.3MP front camera which is just enough for the normal use. No scope for memory expansion, comes with 16 GB internal memory. Battery capacity is 2100 mAH.
CONS – No expandable memory, No USB slot, Average speaker volume, higher price compared to specifications.
Samsung notes have one of its class and technology and a Samsung note at the price of 21,900 rs is a great deal. we can call it as one of the Best Android Smartphone Between Rs 20000 to 25000. Galaxy Note 3 Neo designed with a 5.5 inch screen super Amoled capacitive touch screen, which is a good screen size for watching movies and playing games. With 720p and 267ppi, users can view the screen even in sunlight. Battery capacity is really powerful with 3100 mAH battery, which provide you with a long lasting battery life. The added feature is the availability of the S Pen. Expandable memory with storage capacity of 64 GB and removable battery is a key feature of the smart phone. WiFi, Android V4.3 (jelly bean) OS, Hexa core processor, 8 MP rear camera and 2 MP front camera with full HD recording makes it a stand out phone in this range.
Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 is a mid range smart phone + tablet, phablet. It is worth a purchase at the rate of Rs. 20000 with the features and durability Samsung provides. It comes with a 5.25-inch 720p display, 1.5GB RAM 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, and Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean). 8 GB internal memory and still it is expandable up to 64 GB. 8MP primary camera and 1.9 MP secondary camera. Internet compatibility with 2G, 3G, WiFi, bluetooth and micro USB slot.
Cons – Bulky, speaker volume dissatisfying.
Sony Experia is my personal favorite. It comes with Android 4.2 jelly bean OS with 2.2 GHz quad core processor and 2 GB RAM. The biggest plus point in this series is it screen comes with full HD display. 20.7 MP rear camera and 2 MP front camera with EXMOR technology makes it one in the class technology at this rate. 3G enables phone has a drawback of non removable battery. 16GB internal memory and 64 GB extendable memory. 5 inch capacitive touch screen with 440 ppi scratch resistant glass. Bluetooth, Wifi, USB connectivity, NFC enabled, and very good quality Sony sound technology.

Seventeen Sphinx AC runners ran this new course in unseasonably warm conditions, with Ashley Miles finishing second overall (first senior male).
Despite the horrible conditions, a few PBs were to be had, including Luke Makins and recently-joined Stuart Atkinson. It was Magge Morgan's first half marathon – and what a baptism of fire it was!
Up until 6-ish miles, I was in second place when the leader pulled out at one of the water stations, leaving me in first place with Gary Payne just behind, until around 8 miles. After that, we were neck and neck then he started to drop me just past the butts college on the final stretch back into town.
I couldn't respond to him pulling away and had to settle for second but a nice prize was received.
Thanks to all Sphinx around the course and afterwards for all the support and encouragement maybe next year I will be 1st.
Many thanks to Paul, Janine and Ben for getting the photos to us so quickly.

An Interview with John Johnson, the Director of the PLAN 9 Remake
Posted on April 19, 2016 by Carl Slaughter in Interviews // 0 Comments
Carl chats with Darkstone director John Johnson, who talks about his remake of Ed Wood's Plan 9 From Outer Space.
(See also: SF Signal's interview with Plan 9 novelization author Matthew Warner.
CARL SLAUGHTER: Why a remake of Planet 9 from Outer Space?
JOHN JOHNSON: I have known Conrad Brooks for many years now, and we would talk of Ed's work and crew on their many films and adventures and I always felt for the man. No matter how hard he would try, he never seemed to get a break. Then on the set of one of my other flicks, a PA in a hypothetical question asked me what film I'd remake if given the chance. And my answer…Plan 9 from Outer Space. Mainly for the reason that Ed meant for this film to be taken seriously and affect audiences in a hard way, but he just couldn't seem to get it there. So now, 50 years later…I'm gonna try. It's not so much a remake…As a tribute to the film and the man himself.
CS: How much of the original went into the remake and how much was added/changed?
JJ: The skeleton of the original story is there, but the two films are very different. One being more than 3 zombies. Also our Plan 9 is more of a love letter to mixed genre films as well as Ed Wood and what he means as a filmmaker.
CS: Plan 9 has more hard science than most zombie movies. You've got a lead role scientist spewing scientific principles, data, and analysis, and offering strategy based on scientific deductions and assumptions, pretty much nonstop throughout the movie. How did you integrate the hard science into the plot?
JJ: Well, being a bit of a science nerd as well as co-producer David Simmons, we spent many nights throwing around ideas and research. The original story plays with ideas of science theory quite a bit, so why not dig in and play with some facts to build the fiction on?
CS: Did you write all the hard science dialog or did you use a consultant?
JJ: Simmons and I wrote it together.
CS: In the opening scene, Mr. Lobo's comes across as an egotistical has-been jerk. This is reinforced in the second scene when he berates the convenience store manager for not selling him booze. So the audience is expecting him to be the coward-naysayer-betrayer of the story. But after the zombies attack, he flings himself into the heat of the battle, and stays there. Plus he supports the other fighters. What's the explanation for this surprise character twist and how do you turn him into the hero of the story?
JJ: Well, Criswell has the strongest arc of all the characters in the film. Purposely done. The jerk in these films, never really does, so I thought why not flip the script a bit. Also in my convention travels I have met a few down on their luck talents that once had more of a shine. And I truly believe that they all can be redeemed. Whether they are given another chance or humbled, that shine can be returned.
CS: Plan 9 is a war movie and plenty of humans fall on the battlefield. How did you decide with characters would survive and which would not?
JJ: Believe it or not, I rolled the dice on some if they weren't already in play for the story to die or live later. I knew we had to lose someone in a scene and I thought that assigning each character a number would be a fair and heartbreaking way to tempt fate. So I would say 10 or more died because literally their number was up.
CS: Some of the towns people stand their ground, some try to flee, some assault the fortress of the beast. SPOILER. Characters in the first and second category generally don't fare well. Characters who decide to take the fight to the enemy suffer a lot of casualties but prevail. Is there a message here about how to deal with evil?
JJ: Perhaps. Also I may have by that point loved some of the characters too much to kill. And most of my films have a strong good vs evil concept. Seems to be ingrained in me.
CS: More than one character who in the opening scenes appear to be losers/misfits evolve and surprise the audience, themselves, and their teammates about what they are made of. Was this deliberate?
JJ: Very much so. My life is surrounded by misfits. And I can't help but to love them.
CS: What's the deal with people stripping?
JJ: The 1st one is because a good number of people who commit suicide strip to do so. It is theorized that they do by connecting with their inner-selves or the earth or simply go out the way they came in. The 2nd one is making fun of myself and my previous choices in the film.
CS: Is Plan 9 tribute, spoof, parody, satire; true horror, sci fi, and drama; or some combination?
JJ: I wouldn't say Parody so much, but other than that… All of the above.
CS: Any tropes, themes or character development I overlooked?
JJ: Perhaps. I would recommend renting the movie 10 more times and share with friends. See what ya missed!
CS: In the last scene, the civilian ad hoc assault team town survivors are headed for Montana to fight more zombies. Will there be a sequel?
JJ: Unknown. Depends on how this one fairs with audiences. God help us in the future.
CS: You've collaborated with some of the actors before. Namely Mr. Lobo and Monique Dupree. What is it about working with these actors that made you want to bring them back?
JJ: Talent and indie star power. But more than any other working together we became friends. Makes creating with them so much more fun.
CS: Was Plan 9 released in cinemas or DVDs? What was your marketing strategy? Was the film profitable?
JJ: Few screenings in theaters (One of which in Poland). The marketing is handled by Spotlight Pictures (international) and Gravitas Ventures (domestic), to be honest, I didn't have a lot to do with marketing. They say there will be a DvD release 90 days after VOD release. As for profit, too soon to say. It's all still happening.
CS: Is piracy as bad as entertainment spokesmen have claimed? How has piracy affected you as an owner of a movie production company? Any solutions?
JJ: Ooh, that's a deep one. Yes, pretty bad. Has affected me as much as others. No idea how to fix the issue. The film world as of late is constantly changing. The problems of today will be trumped by the problems of tomorrow. The way we watch movies is changing almost daily. We shall see!
CS: Darkstone does mostly horror, right? Where do you get your ideas and material?
JJ: Mostly yes, but we have done all of the above. Westerns, comedies, etc. I have been very lucky to always have 10 ideas brewing. Not sure where they come from, but grateful to have them.
CS: What's on the horizon for John Johnson?
JJ: 7thguest.com. A series based on the cult video game franchise from the 90's. Also a nap.

I spent about an hour of my day brainstorming new content ideas that I could work on this summer while I am in the Philippines. Considering the two pieces of content that I have already made, the guide to editing let's plays based on Trevor's video, and then a basic RT timeline, I wanted to keep making content that people enjoyed just as much as those two.
Not only is it my dream to work at Rooster Teeth, it is also just a passion of mine to create quality content that people will find fun and/or informative. So, with the amount of content being made by Rooster Teeth, it almost doesn't make sense not to make something awesome based on what they've already done. Some might call it unoriginal, I call it efficient.
So, based on recent content made by Rooster Teeth and myself, here are five projects that I'll be working on over the next few months.
With the newest season of Red vs. Blue just starting, I wanted to take this opportunity to really dive deep into the series again and help everyone appreciate the work put into it.
I fell out of touch with RvB about two seasons back, and after all the research I put into making the timeline, I realized more about how much of a hallmark RvB really is for Rooster Teeth. So, I want to make a monument of sorts that is dedicated to what was accomplished in this newest season, partly because it's not as overwhelming to watch each of episode of this season as it is going through last season and binge watching all the episodes already released.
As I watch new episodes and pick up on new jokes, events, and ideas, I'll be editing what will be in the actual infographic when the season finally wraps up. As of now, I am including: the number of explosions, a body count, number of bullets fired, a curse count, and a list of references to real world entities/events. Expect the finished infographic soon after the season comes to an end.
You can find the statistical infographic here.
Due to the general acceptance of my original Rooster Teeth timeline as well as my updated one, I wanted to revamp it in a new media format. So, I figured I could create a fairly simple animation that gives some life to my timeline. While I'll also be working on a new branching timeline, I want to make the animation based on the updated general one.
I imagine this animation to have a basic flow through all the events described in the timeline with a little more information about each event. As I begin work on this, I'll realize what looks better and what looks terrible, and will update accordingly. There is no release date yet.
As mentioned above, I am also beginning work on a branching Rooster Teeth timeline. This will incorporate all the events laid out in the original timeline, but will be segmented on the different entities that are a part of Rooster Teeth.
These entities include Achievement Hunter, FunHaus, Cow Chop, ScrewAttack, Game Attack, and The Know. As of now, I am most familiar with Rooster Teeth and Achievement Hunter, and know almost nothing about all the others. Thus, this will be a more research heavy project than the others and may take some more time. You can expect the finished project sometime this summer as well.
You can see the finished infographic here.
Oh, the Mad King. Ryan Haywood is, without a doubt, my favorite Achievement Hunter. His obsession with controlling and dominating animals, on top of his wonderfully frequent moments of botching the English language, make him an invaluable source of content.
As anyone who is familiar with Achievement Hunter will know, Ryan tends to totally "flub" words during videos. These flubs are frequent enough that montages have been made that put them in the spotlight, with even Jon Risinger creating a post asking for members to post all the Ryan flubs they know.
I will be using that post, along with flubs in the more recent AH videos to create a portrait of Mad King Ryan. Each of his phrases will be incorporated into one amazing portrait that exemplifies his two exemplary traits: utter insanity, and mastery of botching the English language.
This project will take longer than the other ones due to my (lack of) artistic abilities. No release date has been determined.
Rooster Teeth continues to develop new avenues for their plethora of content. Podcasts have been one way that Rooster Teeth has delivered a variety of their content to millions of viewers. Their most popular podcast, the RT Podcast, or originally known as the Drunk Tank podcast, has continued to air weekly for the past nine years.
While these podcasts cover different topics and each member of the podcast varies tremendously, I want to focus on why Rooster Teeth podcasts tend to do so well. Due to the research-intensive aspect of this guide, there is no release date yet.


The last Saturday of this month ( March ) we are going to hold a Mad Minute Match. While the regulations state the target is to be 48x48", we will use our 24x30" AR500 target.
This match will be open to Open sighted Bolt and Semi-auto rifles.
Semi-auto rifles will be in their own class.
Any type of Military Bolt action rifle can be used providing it is "as issued" and not Bubba'd or have changed sights.
Shooters will be firing from the prone. As many shots as possible in 60 seconds. The rifle will be loaded on the line and ready to go when the order is given.
Scores will be: Total number of Shots fired and Rounds on Target. The higher number of accurate shots on target will win.
I wish I was on the other side of the continent!
% of hits wins, not total hits in 1 minute? If % ...then I am quitting after one carefully aimed shot.
I tried doing the "mad minute" many times with my Enfield's. I can fire my No4 Mk2 quick but usually I can't hit crap! Rob, I envy your tenacity! Good luck with the shoot! If you have any advice on improving accuracy, let me know please.
100% of five shots would not win over 80% of 20 shots.......and so on.
Math involved?..that is honestly beyond me... 15 hits in a minute beats 5 hits. Are Total rounds fired and number of misses even a factor in a speed contest?
I sure will give it a try. Sounds like a fun military surplus shooting day. Greatest part of Rob's club matches?....each match is unique and presents a new challenge.
Come on shooters. Show up and shoot!
Maybe this will give a few tips?
Sorry about the iffy resolution.
Being left handed,I'm at a slight time disadvantage. That being said I can work most rifles as fast or faster than most shooters.
The rifle I'll be using will be my Swiss M1911 rifle. Easy to load and can cycle like the wind. All I have to is to roll the rifle away from my face which is no big deal for me as I cycle the action.
The only member to beat is Ammolab as he wins most of our matches. It should be fun no matter what happens.
Now I need to set up a 800 yard match shooting rapidfire...huumm.
The match Saturday was a blast. Everyone had fun and got off at least ten rounds for score.
We then followed up with a group Volley Firing at the same target for 60 seconds.
Our club did a few of those type matches about 15 years ago . The target was 38t x 20w. The top performers from the WWI matches were : Gew 98- 24 /25 , 1903 - 23 /25 , Lebel - 20 /24 , Enfield - 20 / 22 , 91 Carcano - 18 /18 , M-95- 14 / 24 , 91 Mosin - 14 / 15 . We found the long Gew-98 stayed on target well , 1903 was just easy to shoot , the Lebel was a surprise , the Enfield was slow to reload , M-95 was fast but wild , Mosin's short bolt really hurt , the light recoiling long Carcano stayed on target and was the only 100% gun .


Rind on, whole pork belly, average weight 4 kilos. Perfect for roasting, slow cooking or cut for spare-ribs. Delicious whatever way its cooked and great value compared to many joints of meat. Pork belly is also used in Chinese dishes, and is delicious when marinaded in soy sauce.
Over the BBQ or Grilled with flavouring, this rack of ribs is sublime. It is full of meat and extremely juicy, definitely a must whenever ordering now. Just hope the price (£12.95) doesn't increase because of this review, I would be well gutted..
Fabulous!!!! It's value for money!!!!


Dwarf Planet, Big Flaming Ice Heart!
Pluto is technically a dwarf planet since 2006, but it changes nothing to the sense of wonder. Pluto surprised everyone with this heart-shaped geological feature!
Colors are boosted since only a small fraction of our sunlight reaches the Pluto system. The dwarf planet has known activity periods, and this 2000 km wide flaming heart maybe composed of nitrogen ice.
New satellites (Hydra, Nix since 2004, Kerberos and Styx) added themselves to the larger Charon).
The sense of wonder of those pictures should not make us forget the long years of preparation by NASA astronomers and other teams, the nine-year voyage of the New Horizons craft, travelling more than 5 billions km in spirals to take advantage of the Jupiter sling-shot effect to boost acceleration.
who left me all his guides!
May the next year be filled with light and creativity!
A close-up of a magnificient Lily in full bloom. Picture taken near a garden, in Montréal. I was on site for a comic arts event, the FBDM.
This pic was taken last February in my garden, by minus 20 Celsius. The northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis, don't you love Latin!) and the dark-eyed junco (Junco hyemalis) seemed to observe a truce, in order to keep their energy. They nestled in the center of a wildrose bush invaded by the vines. The junco appears more blue than gray.
Those pics were taken through the windowpane, so the diminished/whitish colors were accentuated afterward in Gimp.
Summer is here, and blooming! Here are a few smiles from my garden. You may use the pics at your convenience!
Perfectly ripe! Nature is as generous as last year, and we have to invite neighbors to gather the fruits!
The wisteria is no more, but we have some unusual four-legged visitors!!
Never letting his or her guard down. Always on the ready. Cottontails lead difficult lives in this urban environment, what with the cars (Mississauga is the dream city for car dealers) and the wide streets and arteries. They come out veeery early in the morning.
This one was spotted on another street, during my 5h00 early-morning run. Note that the winter spotted fur is shedding, revealing the lighter brown fur. Fortunately, our two huntresses are safely inside the house.
And, last but not least, the ultimate proof that summer in upon us… a fiery day-lily (hemerocalle)!


I put this down with a reluctant sigh. My first encounter with O'Farrell's writing was so engaging I had to immediately acquire an earlier novel to counter the feeling of loss. The central characters, Daniel and Claudette, meet on a rural road in Ireland. They're both on the run: Daniel from a failed marriage and horrible custody battle in California; Claudette from the public gaze as a famous film star. They fall in love, have children, and carefully construct a life in rural isolation. This life is put in jeopardy by Daniel's misreading of a pivotal event in his past. Juggling multiple perspectives, chronologies, and continents, this engrossing novel is contemporary in structure but feels like good old-fashioned storytelling.
An irresistible love story, an unforgettable family. Best-selling author Maggie O'Farrell captures an extraordinary marriage with insight and laugh-out-loud humor in what Richard Russo calls "her breakout book." Perfect for readers of Where'd You Go, Bernadette.
Meet Daniel Sullivan, a man with a complicated life. A New Yorker living in the wilds of Ireland, he has children he never sees in California, a father he loathes in Brooklyn, and a wife, Claudette, who is a reclusive ex–film star given to pulling a gun on anyone who ventures up their driveway. Claudette was once the most glamorous and infamous woman in cinema before she staged her own disappearance and retreated to blissful seclusion in an Irish farmhouse.
But the life Daniel and Claudette have so carefully constructed is about to be disrupted by an unexpected discovery about a woman Daniel lost touch with twenty years ago. This revelation will send him off-course, far away from wife, children, and home. Will his love for Claudette be enough to bring him back?
MAGGIE O'FARRELL is the author of six previous novels, After You'd Gone; My Lover's Lover; The Distance Between Us, which won a Somerset Maugham Award; The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox; The Hand That First Held Mine, which won the Costa Novel Award; and Instructions for a Heatwave, which was short-listed for the Costa Novel Award. She lives in Edinburgh.


Excuse me?! Obama ignores his own foreign policy weaknesses and the disaster that is America's policy toward ISIS and Syria.
But, no action has been taken against the Syrian regime led by dictator Bashar al-Assad, so there is no red line in play, Obama White House.
So much for Obama's red line in Syria, where Assad and his regime conducted at least 40 chemical attacks.
So much for that red line from Obama some years ago, right? Now Assad could be an ally of the U.S.? Wow.

Child of the Dark
Carolina Maria de Jesus
Carolina Maria de Jesus and Child of the Dark Background
Literary Devices Themes
The Symbiosis of Rich and Poor
In Child of the Dark, the fates of the rich and poor are intertwined, and the rich ignore the existence and plight of the poor at their own peril. Though the rich might want to forget about the poor and push them out of sight in the favelas, the poor are as vital to the city as the rich are. When Carolina crosses the dividing line between these two worlds, she sees the contrast and connection between them more clearly. Several times, strong imagery highlights this parallel track, such as the image of the city as a beautiful woman with cheap, torn stockings underneath her ritzy clothes, and especially in terms of the image of São Paulo as a house where the favela functions as a backyard garbage dump. The rich would be lost without a place to dump their garbage, Carolina seems to be saying, and this unsettling observation provides a new perspective on the ever-present link between rich and poor.
The Value of Independence
Carolina's pride in her own independence is the central value that determines both her identity and the way she interacts with other favelados. On one level, her independence is the main guiding force in a strong set of values that she adheres to in the face of numerous threats and temptations. Rampant theft, alcoholism, and violence surround her, and to set herself apart from these scourges, she must maintain a mental distance from them. On another level, Carolina's sense of independence grows out of her resistance to, or mistrust of, other people. Manuel repeatedly proposes marriage, and when she turns him down, Carolina refers to her closely held sense of independence. She points to the subservience that other women must endure in marriage as her reason for staying alone, and since Carolina's independence defines her sense of self, giving up her autonomy would compromise not only her social standing but also her sense of identity as a writer.
Whether she is simply recording daily events or creating complex critiques of those around her, Carolina derives tremendous power and identity from the act of writing. On the most basic level, Carolina uses her diary as a weapon against those in the favela who wrong her—she threatens to put them in her book. If Carolina didn't sense that words have intrinsic power, she wouldn't bother making such a threat. There are subtler means, however, that Carolina uses to express the power of writing in her life, such as when she describes how writing makes her feel as though she lives in a golden castle. When she writes about her desire to escape the favela, she is putting words to—and therefore making more real—something she only dreams about.
The Blindness of Authority
Fighting back at figures of authority in both the church and the government through her writing, Carolina accuses those in power for being blind to the needs of the poor. She chides the president of Brazil for being like a bird in a gilded cage, ignorant of the hungry cats (the favelados) who are circling. She takes on rich business owners, who price common goods at a level that is out of the poor's reach. She castigates clergymen for preaching sermons that are not only out of touch with the favela but may in fact be harmful. For example, one sermon advised faveladosto have more children. Throughout the diary, Carolina repeatedly calls attention to the responsibility that those in power have shirked. In that sense, her diary acts as a corrective to the neglect that the favela has endured for so many years.

Carnival Dream Review
Gina Kramer
Even before its January 2017 makeover -- which welcomed Carnival favorites like Guy's Burger Joint, BlueIguana Cantina, the Alchemy Bar and Bonsai Sushi -- Carnival Dream had a lot to love. The ship is one of the biggest in Carnival's fleet (second to the line's Vista class), which means dining options abound, and you'll never be bored with activities ranging from themed trivia and charades to comedy shows and top-deck dance parties.
All entertainment and most dining is included in the cruise fare
No dedicated sports bar; games are streamed at the casino bar
A ship with a happy vibe, where passengers have fun and crew is friendly
Western Caribbean, Eastern Caribbean, Panama Canal & Central America
To balance this out, Carnival Dream offers something that can be hard to find on other ships of its size: a place to escape all the action. The Lanai Promenade, a wraparound exterior walkway on Deck 5, has ample seating (including a handful of deck chairs) and four cantilevered hot tubs, yet never seems to get crowded, even on sea days.
Carnival Dream is also full of "hidden" decks -- two of which offer some of the best views onboard. You'll find them all the way at the front of the ship, on Decks 6 and 7, through doors at the end of the cabin corridors. Elsewhere throughout the ship, you'll find slivers of deck space and seating nooks to accommodate the larger number of passengers onboard. On the flip side, be warned: The ship does have a few tight spaces that can make it difficult to navigate -- including the internal walkway on Deck 5, next to Ocean Plaza, and Deck 4, near the kids' clubs.
What truly sets Carnival Dream apart from other ships, however, is its service. The crew members seem genuinely happy and interested in making sure passengers have the best vacation possible. In addition, they go above and beyond -- whether that's having your go-to glass of lemonade waiting for you at the main dining room, or guiding you to one of the secret decks so you don't get lost. With this level of attentiveness, it's no surprise Carnival Dream has won the line's internal flagship award for best service, multiple years.
Get Carnival Dream price drops
Between the friendly service and everything there is to do (and eat) onboard, Carnival Dream is one big happy ship -- and we have a feeling you'll quickly forget about any minor gripes.
All meals in the main dining room, buffet and select room service items
All theatre production shows and Punchliner Comedy Club shows
Use of the water park and sports deck
Daily activities unless noted below or in the FunTimes daily program
Use of the fitness center, excluding organized classes or training sessions
Use of the Carnival kids club (children aged 2 to 17) until 10 p.m.
Gratuities ($13.99 per person, per day for standard staterooms; $15.99 per person, per day for suites)
Automatic gratuities of 18 percent for beverages and spa treatments
All drinks except water, tea, coffee and juices served in the buffet
Meals in the steakhouse specialty restaurant
Treatments in the Spa and salon; personal training or group fitness classes
Entry to the Thermal Suite, including Thalassotherapy Pool, at the Cloud 9 Spa
All shore excursions
Select activities like bingo, alcohol tasting events and Build-a-Bear workshops
Photos and artwork for sale
Late-night (10 p.m. to 1 a.m.) events in the Kids Club
A huge chunk of the passengers on Carnival Dream drive to their cruise from states all over the southern United States. Ages run the gamut from kids (lots of 'em in the summer!) to folks in their 60s and 70s, though the average age is usually somewhere in the mid-30s to mid-40s. The ship is popular with groups, including family reunions and wedding parties.
Carnival Dream Dress Code
Daytime: Casual is the name of the game on any Carnival ship. On most days, you'll see men in shorts and T-shirts and women in shorts and tees, capris, sundresses or bathing suits with cover-ups.
Evening:Most nights people remain casual for dinner but on Cruise Elegant nights, you'll see women in gowns, sundresses and pants and blouse combos, while men don anything from tuxes to full suits to trousers with button-up shirts (with or without a jacket and/or tie). You'll also see plenty of people who choose not to dress up at all.
Not permitted: On all nights, cutoff jeans, men's sleeveless shirts, basketball shorts, T-shirts, sportswear, baseball hats, flip-flops and bathing suits are not allowed in the main dining rooms, though we saw lots of women in flip-flops and men in T-shirts and baseball caps.

The cruise was really nice except for the rain (which I can't blame on Carnival) and we were always able to find seating for shows and a chaise by the pool, probably because it was 60% full!Read More

<!--P>You can take a look on live demo.
This is an ActiveX control based on the OpenGL library, which allows you to plot three-dimensional data. The control is entirely written on ATL/STL, and does not link to MFC libraries.
Axis customization, including customizable font, colors, and titles.
Plot a large number of points and updating one or more plots on the graph with new data, replacing the old plot with the new plot.
Plot the multiple elements with individual properties such as line and point color, line width, and point size.
By setting the Projection property you should be able to change the viewing to: (0) Perspective (in which objects that are closer appear larger), and (1) Orthographic (in which the sizes and angles between objects are maintained no matter what their distance from the viewer).
By setting the TrackMode property you should be able to do: (1) Zooming, (2) Rotation, and (3) Panning at runtime.
Before you start, the control must be register as a COM component using Regsvr32.exe. Regsvr32 takes one argument the DLL or control to register and any of several command-line switches, the most notable of which is /u to uninstall a control. By default that is, when run with only a dll or ocx Regsvr32.exe registers the control.
Note: you must do this on every computer that you are going to use the control!
For more information on how to register and how to include the control in a VC Project, refer to my article 2D Graph ActiveX Control.
Note: I am not expert on OpenGL, therefore all good suggestions, code and help for imporving the control are welcome!
Send mail to nteofilov@yahoo.de with questions or comments about this article.
Thanks to Alexander Chernosvitov for the Excellent article Function graphics in 3D.
Great starting point! Thanks for contribution.
Initially looked promising, but lack of documentation, (apparent) lack of ability to swap axes (so that Z is up/down, not Y!!) , (apparent) lack of ability to set & lock min/max values of each axis, renders this control rather useless for my particular project.
how to change line color like rainbow? plz!!!
How to display the excel file to LED display?
Bad criticism . Not helpful.
Please describe what you are missing and where you found problems!
i am trying to plot surface graph (similar to example "double sine" but solid) and set color of surface based on Z value.
am not sure if i use this properly but i am having some problems. so far i am still playing with the code trying to see how to use it.
for example right now i just use lineplot (modified from "double sine" example) and while plot looks fine, it is next to impossible to see anything because everything is same color.
i can change color but is always applied to entire graph not just line i am ploting.
i expect that after each ".AddElement", and it's ".ElementLineColor(n)=RGB(100 + (n mod 128), 0,0)" i color set for only that element (".PlotXYZ X, Y, Z, n").
for some reason it does not work (or maybe I am not understanding how this is supposed to be used).
Eight years old and still seriously awesome!
tried to register it on win 7 and then add it to com from C# it worked but then tried to pull in from toolbox and then vs crashed .
Re: visual studio 2010 ?
Hi, I encounter the same problem,did you fix it finally??
Is the src project is supposed to generate an ActiveX control ?
2008, I find there remain a couple of unresolved issues.
1) if this is supposed to generate an ActiveX control, why is no OCX file generated ?
The NTGraph3D.dll was loaded, but the DLLRegisterServer entry point was not found.
This file cannot be registered.
This problem can occur when the ActiveX controls are not properly registered on the deployment machine.
here where we can all appreciate your brilliance.
Re: Is the src project is supposed to generate an ActiveX control ?
I apologize for my ignorance concerning ATL ActiveX controls. I have discovered that my above post is completely in error. In fact, MSDN provides a detailed walk-through on how to create such an ActiveX control.
Once certain corrections are made in the NTGraph3D_src program, the code will compile using Visual Studio 2008. Further, the Custom Build Event to register the dll will work (Vista requires run as admistrator).
Once the dll is registered, the Demo3D will run but the 'torus' selection causes a runtime error related to some vector subscript boundary error. Similarly, the Torus demo will compile but encounters an immediate runtime error, likely for the same vector boundary reason.
I want to thank Ido Ben-Ami for restimulating my interest in this topic. With his help, I was able to correct the NTGraph3D_src to produce a workable dll.
Would be nice if this were NOT an ActiveX Control ?
I fail to see how making Alexander Chernosvitov 's code into an ActiveX control adds much utility. I believe that ActiveX controls have fallen out of fashion. It would be nice if the author would update this code without involving ActiveX. Then it would be extremely useful to many. As it is, it is full of errors and warnings when one attempts to compile it in VS 2008. While I certainly appreciate the effort the author put into this, I hope he or someone can update it. Still gets a 5 from me, but it's now too long in the tooth.
Re: Would be nice if this were NOT an ActiveX Control ?
I can't run this demos (Demo3D and Torus) from C++ Builder 6. Please, tell me step by step what I must to do.
Can anybody please help me to solve these errors???
Does anyone have a complete VB example of how to get this demo working in a VB project?
download NTGraph3D demo, extract files and double click on Demo3D.hta to see it run in a browser.
you can open same file and code is nearly identical to VB, so you can simply copy and paste.
of course you need to create new VB application (standard EXE) and add reference (Ctrl+T) to NTGraph after registering ntgraph3d.dll.
this will allow you to drop new NTGraph control onto VB form.
can't post file but here is entire form of VB6 demo version.
Caption = "ibyk30 : NTGraph3D demo in VB6"
or Picturebox to present sort of landscape.
i don't recall where i saw the original code but here is modified version.
it allows simple scale and rotation of the plot.
for the last code sample, just add button and six textboxes.
Could you write some examples how to use this library in my С# -project?Thx for help!
does one have to register it with the system first ?
Have you checked the exact name of the control in Access? If yes, have you then tried writing NTGraph3D0.Object instead of just NTGraph3D0 (or whatever your control`s name was) in the With line of the Torus example? Torus example with this .Object modification works fine in Access for me.

Jihadist attack on besieged Shiite towns ends in failure
BEIRUT, LEBANON (8:15 A.M.) – For the third time this week, the jihadist rebels attacked the besieged Shiite towns of Al-Fou'aa and Kafraya in the Idlib Governorate.
Led by Saraya Darayya and Hay'at Tahrir Al-Sham, the jihadist rebels stormed the towns of Al-Fou'aa and Kafraya from three different axes last night.
However, this attack by the jihadist rebels would ultimately fail after several hours of intense clashes at the outskirts of Al-Fou'aa and Kafraya.
According to the National Defense Forces (NDF), the jihadist rebels suffered a number of casualties during the attack, forcing them to ultimately retreat after failing to advance.
Saraya Darayya was a jihadist group that was previously fighting in the Damascus countryside before they were transported to northern Syria.
The aforementioned jihadist group led this offensive with their Uzbek allies in Hay'at Tahrir Al-Sham.

BURT AND CHARLIE's ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN PAID FOR BY KEN AND KRIS BILDERBACK TO HELP THEM FIND THEIR FOREVER HOME.
Charlie is partially blind. Burt is Charlie's seeing eye cat and they must be adopted together.


Emblematic of the newspaper's approach of acknowledging the uncertainty of many intelligence assessments only to quickly throw caution to the wind to embrace them as certain facts, was a December 15 report by Adam Goldman and Matt Apuzzo in which the two reporters wrote that the "hack influenced the course, if not the outcome, of a presidential campaign."  The sentence is astonishing for not only stripping the CIA finding of its immanent uncertainty, but in venturing well beyond the intelligence agency's judgment to aver what no one could possibly know, namely, whether the release of DNC e-mails influenced the presidential campaign.
Let's recall how much uncertainty underlies the CIA finding which the New York Times now accepts as fact, in the same way the newspaper quickly accepted as fact an equally tentative, and evidence-free US intelligence finding that the Syrian government had used chemical weapons in its war against Al Qaeda and the Islamist group's allies, offshoots and auxiliaries. Today, "Assad's use of chemical weapons" is bandied about in the Western media as if it were an incontrovertible fact, belying the reality that the US intelligence finding on the matter was based on belief, not evidence, and that there was, by Washington's own admission, no "smoking gun." What's more, the idea that the Syrian military would use chemical weapons, which are less effective than conventional arms, when doing so would have crossed a redline drawn by Washington, and invited a more muscular US intervention in Syria, never made sense….


The holiday season is fast approaching and Coquito Trigo is a beverage that is traditionally enjoyed within Puerto Rican culture -- it is often referred to as their own iteration of an eggnog. The Coquito Trigo is a liqueur that is created on the foundation of coconut cream and its highlighting element is its aged rum -- the one-year-old rum adds a traditional flavor to the Latin drink.
It is then blended with sweet flavors consisting of vanilla notes, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg to complete the festive drink, often served alongside holiday food items. Although it is traditionally a Puerto Rican holiday drink, the Coquito Trigo can be enjoyed all year round.

<input type="checkbox" ng-click="statusChange()" ng-model='statusBox.isChecked' ng-true-value="true" ng-false-value="false">nur unbeantwortete

Lösung anzeigen

When user clicks on the checkbox it should trigger the click event to some update. Then, I want checkbox to go back to its normal state (unchecked state).
app.controller("QuizController", ['total', '$scope', '$http', function (total, $scope, $http) {
    $scope.statusBox= { isChecked: false };

$scope.statusChange = function () {
        $scope.quizzes[$scope.count].exclude= true;
        $scope.statusBox.isChecked = "YES";
        $scope.incrementOne();
    }

    $scope.excludeQuestion = function () {
    }

    $scope.incrementOne = function () {
        $scope.disableStatus = false    ;
            $scope.selection = [];
            $scope.three = "front";
            $scope.count = $scope.count + 1;
        $scope.statusBox.isChecked = false;
    }
}]);

The value of $scope.statusChecked.isChecked becomes true but it does not uncheck the checkbox.
Can anyone here please help me?

A:     $scope.statusBox= { isChecked: false };

<input type="checkbox" ng-click="statusChange()" ng-model='statusBox.isChecked' ng-true-value="true" ng-false-value="false">nur unbeantwortete

     $scope.statusChange = function () {
        $scope.quizzes[$scope.count].exclude= true;
        $scope.statusBox.isChecked = "YES";
        $scope.incrementOne();
    }

You said that ng-true-value = true , but when statusChange function it's change for "YES" value is not "true" value.

A: You should use ng-checked.
Example:
<input type="checkbox" ng-click="statusChange()" ng-checked='statusBox.isChecked' ng-true-value="true" ng-false-value="false">nur unbeantwortete

It will checked for truthy value and unchecked for falsy value.

Welcome to the 36th edition of the Mommy Monday Blog Hop Hosted by Mrs. Tee, Mrs. AOK and me, The Squishable Baby. I'm so glad that you have made it here to link-up with us – because without you, there would not be a hop! I invite you to link-up a post or two and take the time to visit a few and network.
It's my pleasure! I thought it was a great post and a great idea. I hope you have a wonderful (and less ice and snow than we have) start to the brand new week! You might want to link-up your post on the #homeschoollinkup! I think the homeschoolers there would really appreciate your post.
karen recently posted…Would I Even Listen?
Hey. Sneaking some in at work sounds great! Actually, I'm like – she can go to work tomorrow? Supposedly, there is 12 inches of snow coming. Right now, it's just a dusting, so we will see.
Hello Lisa! Happy Monday! Thank you for once more hosting the 'Mommy Monday Blog Hop'! Have a great week!
I so appreciate your comment on my blog because your concerns about unschooling bring to light so many of the fears I had about it while I was still researching it. I know that so many other people also feel the same way. Your comment actually prompted me to write a post about it. If you're interested, you can head on over and check it out. And no worries…you didn't vomit on my comment section. You voiced your concerns, and, in the process, inspired a post. Have a great day!
I wanted to thank you for the excellent posts. I have been thinking about them for week. Unschooling is definitely interesting, but just not something I would feel comfortable with.
You're welcome! And believe me, I still go through moments of panic. If ever my kids would decide to jump back into a more traditional method, I'd gladly do it because what's important is that they're learning, not how they're learning, right?


My name is Kristin Heehler and I have been having fun blogging for the online shop, Hängematte.de.
Now I've been asked to write articles for the LA SIESTA blog. I thought that sounded great, especially when I heard what my first topic would be: the use of hammocks in occupational therapy in the treatment of children with ADHD. I think that's really fascinating!
ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) has been a topic of conversation for years. It is a disorder that affects many people (and not only children!). You could almost say that it's an epidemic. During the time when I worked at a bookstore, I met many parents whose children were suffering from ADHS. But what is the story behind all of this? I wasn't sure, so I did some intense research.
I learned quickly that ADHD is associated with a lot of prejudices. There are many people who think that this disease is a product of the current times. Others believe that ADHD is the result of poor parenting. Actually, none of this is true, ADHD is a neurological disturbance.
The brain of those affected cannot filter all of the impulses from its surroundings and cannot differentiate between important and unimportant things. This over-stimulation cannot be adequately processed, which results in behavioral disturbances. Deficits often appear, such as the impairment of math or reading and writing skills. These produce additional stress. One doesn't grow out of ADHD, it remains throughout adulthood.
I was interested in how ADHD was normally treated, because certain forms of therapy, especially occupational therapy, have produced good results. First of all, disturbances in motor function and cognition are treated. The patients get to know their body and its limitations better within a controlled setting. The main goal of treatment is the improvement of gross and fine motor skills, as well as the ability to communicate. In order to treat ADHD holistically, various therapeutic approaches are combined. For example, educational therapy may be combined with various active games and behavioral therapeutic elements.
Music is even used in occupational therapy, enabling patients to better express and work through their problems. I am discovering that there are many elements in treatment which are intertwined.
The hammock is also increasingly being used in the treatment of ADHD. One plausible reason: The use of a hammock stimulates many of the senses which are important for a child's ability to concentrate. This means that when these systems are stimulated or are well-integrated throughout the body, then the ability to concentrate also functions.
I think this is great! Because the use of hammocks has proven to be of value in the treatment of children with ADHD, LA SIESTA has sponsored a clinical trial. We wanted to make a contribution to those children that are affected, so that the use of hammocks in occupational therapy can be selectively applied. Mara Lodder, an occupational therapy student, will carry out this study. She wants to prove that hamocks can play an important role in the improvement of ADHD.
How did she decide on this topic? Mara Lodder was just so interested in this topic that she is including it in her bachelor's thesis. Furthermore, she wanted to do something practical and in particular, something involving children.
Most kids love to lie in a hammock!
I wanted to know what the current state of technology is. It has already been proven that the stimulations that occur in a hammock activate the sensory systems. Yet, there are no clinical studies which provide evidence that the use of hammock in occupational therapy improves the clinical picture of those with ADHD. Every occupational therapist knows, however, that it works. Occupational therapy is just in its beginning stages as a scientifically-based profession. Mara Lodder is convinced that every occupational therapist knows its effectiveness, but concrete evidence needs to be found.
The fact is: Almost every occupational therapist you talk to agrees that the hammock belongs in the treatment of ADHD. Unfortunately, until now no one has proven this scientifically. The subject of hammocks has been neglected in research, resulting in gaps which need to be closed. The time has come to change this!
We are convinced that hammocks should be used in the treatent of ADHD and kids should be allowed freedom of movement. The hammock is a great place to let off steam and also to do play-oriented exercises with an occupational therapist.
It's fun to rollick in a hammock!
With the aid of this clinical study, we would like to find out what contribution the hammock can make to the treatment of ADHD.
I will reveal how the study is proceeding in Part Two of this series.

Raptor Red by Robert T. Bakker (1995)
Hardback cover blurb
A pair of fierce but beautiful eyes looks out from the dull green undergrowth. The eyes follow every movement in the great herd of plant-eating dinosaurs that mills around the open meadows, moving back and forth with the rapid scanning of a hunter who is thinking about everything she sees. She is an intelligent killer…
So begins one of the most extraordinary novels you will ever read. The time is 120 million years ago, the place is the plains of prehistoric Utah, and the eyes belong to one of the most unforgettable heroines you will ever meet. Her name is Raptor Red, and she is a female Utahraptor dinosaur.
Raptor Red's tale begins with tragedy. She and her mate are stalking prey, a giant astrodon feeding in a nearby meadow. They approach silently and attack with deadly force. But at the moment of triumph, something goes terribly wrong and Raptor Red's mate is killed. It is the beginning of a yearlong odyssey of survival, a thrilling story told by leading paleontologist Robert T. Bakker. Now, in Raptor Red, he dramatizes his revolutionary theories in a one-of-a-kind tale.
Raptor Red strikes out on her own, and before long she has rejoined her sister's clan. Together they will hunt and devour iguanodons, brave a monstrous storm and the ensuing flash flood, migrate toward the western ocean to escape powerful predators, and eventually move north to a snowy mountain region in a desperate attempt to escape the threat of the deadly acrocanthosaurs.
At the same time, Raptor Red must obey nature's command to find a new mate. But when a bold and graceful young male presents himself, she is stymied by her conflicting loyalties to her sister's brood and her own powerful impulses to mate and produce chicks of her own. On a snowy mountaintop in the frozen north, Raptor Red's search for a new home and a new mate will culminate in a thrilling climax.
Painting a rich and colorful picture of her lush, exotic prehistoric world, the novel is convincingly told from within Raptor Red's mind, revealing the powerful instincts and Darwinian forces that shape her remarkable consciousness. Her story is filled with a unique cast of characters that includes a white pterodactyl, a giant prehistoric crocodile, a small furry aegialodon, hulking astrodons, and an incredible range of other exotic creatures.
Raptor Red is a completely unique and utterly compelling story of a year in the life of a dinosaur – and is sure to be one of the most talked-about books of the year.
The above cover blurb pretty much gives away the entire plot of the book, so there really isn't any need to summarize it again. Raptor Red is told from the point of view of a female Utahraptor as she struggles to survive in her early Cretaceous world. Bakker, a famous paleontologist, is aiming for realism so this isn't Watership Down with talking dinosaurs instead of rabbits. His animals behave more or less like the real thing, although Raptor Red herself comes across as a bit too smart and emotional at times.
One result of Bakker's approach is that Raptor Red's story is pretty simple as far as novels go. There are no plot twists or any attempts at grand themes. It's simply a tale about an animal living in her environment. The exotic nature of the setting keeps the novel from becoming trite after the first few chapters, and Bakker's quirky sense of humor comes across in several passages.
More than anything, Raptor Red serves as a vehicle for Bakker to give science lessons in a user-friendly format. The paleontologist is well-known for championing the idea of active, warm-blooded dinosaurs. It probably should come as no surprise then that the very first illustration in the novel features Raptor Red on a snowy mountainside, a place you wouldn't find cold-blooded reptiles. Many of Bakker's more radical theories are far from universally accepted, but other than in a few places, he doesn't really delve into them.
Chances are you will still find Raptor Red in the science fiction section of your local bookstore, the paperback sporting a holographic cover. The book has had a remarkable shelf life for a work of paleofiction. It's worth picking up a copy if you're a fan of dinosaurs.
There seemed to be a time, not long ago, when every TV dinosaur documentary had to feature at least one interview with Bakker. He is instantly recognizable with his beat-up cowboy hat and his long hair and beard. He also served as the inspiration for the character of Dr. Robert Burke in the movie The Lost World: Jurassic Park. Burke meets a rather nasty end in the jaws of a T. rex in the film.
The Utahraptor was co-discovered by paleontologist James Kirkland, who has also authored a work of dinosaur fiction. He co-wrote the Star Trek novel First Frontier with Diane Carey.
