Ranking the top 5 moments from "Riverdale" season 3 episode 18: "She's her Father's Daughter"
Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching the CW's Riverdale season 3 episode 18, the Invasion of the Body Snatchers drama continued, as some of our favorite characters dove deeper into trouble. Whether they were looking for answers or comfort, darkness is never too far away in Riverdale. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet. In last night's episode, "Chapter Fifty-Three: Jawbreaker," Jughead works with FP to investigate the town's latest murder. Meanwhile, Betty tries to get through to Alice, Toni worries about Cheryl's involvement in the Farm, and Archie is up for a rematch with Veronica's full support. My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 3 episode 18 are:
"I felt reborn."
In the beginning of the episode, Betty continues her conversation with Edgar Evernever, who begins to reveal more about himself. Edgar explains that he previously felt lost and found himself on a farm, which made him want to recreate that feeling of being reborn with his own farm. Betty recognizes that it sounds like a nice story and all, but she is not buying it whatsoever. Edgar does not reveal anything about how Cheryl and Alice are seeing their dead relatives, as he vaguely explains that they are discovering the best versions of themselves. Betty refuses to let Edgar turn everything around on her and decides to get through to her mother once and for all.
"I'm always in your corner…"
Archie feels very passionate about honoring Baby Teeth's death and Veronica works with him to get their gym, the El Royale, in the spotlight. Elio agrees to let Archie have a rematch against Randy, but decides to dose him with "G," which is some kind of bad batch of fizzle rocks that apparently turns people into zombies. Not really, but the foaming at the mouth and the extreme behavior sort of had me thinking along those lines. I mean, they are only a town away from Sabrina and Greendale so anything is possible.
Archie is able to knock Randy out, but the drugs may have actually done a lot of damage, as Randy is not waking up yet. Even though the fight was entertaining, I was more interested in the lingering stare between Archie and Veronica. Is there hope for Varchie? It looks that way and even Josie notices that Veronica certainly didn't hold back when she purchased Archie some new attire for the fight.
"You're a daughter who wants her mother back just like I want my girlfriend back."
Finally someone else notices what is going on with the Farm! After Cheryl trades in her signature red for a white ensemble, Toni is beyond concerned about her. Toni approaches Betty, who fills her in on what she knows so far. Toni continues to try and get through to Cheryl, but Evelyn has other plans. Evelyn confronts Toni and Toni tells her, "Bitch I love her and she loves me." Seriously Evelyn, you better watch out. Evelyn proves to be manipulative and conniving, as she tells Cheryl that she needs to choose between Toni and Jason. Toni says that there has to be another way and begins her own runway walk down the halls sporting some white attire.
I was a little worried that we had lost our girl Toni to the Farm as well, but she is undercover, still working with Betty. I have to say that I really enjoyed the interactions between Betty and Toni in this episode. We don't typically see too much between these two, but they both have a common goal now and I'm interested to see them continue to work together to bring down the Farm for good.
"I will kill you…"
After crossing Toni, Evelyn makes the mistake of confronting Betty. Betty has had enough and slams Evelyn against a locker and threatens her. Go Betty! She tells her that she sees right through her and wants her to stop messing with her and her family. Betty doesn't want to give up on her mother and even resorts to kidnapping her and keeping her in Dilton's bunker. It seems a bit extreme, but Betty will do anything for her mother. Betty tells Alice, "The past is part of who you are," but Alice doesn't seem to want to remember the pain. Alice even begins burning the old photos that Betty shows her and Betty comes to the realization that she may need to let her mother go after all.
After listening to one of the tapes, Betty hears her mother's thoughts on her, recognizing the same darkness in Betty that she saw in Hal. Betty continues to confide in her father about everything, but now he wants a favor in return. He's ready to return home, but I'm not really sure how that would work. I mean, you don't just get to leave prison and all. Betty is continuously pushed again and again, but will this release the darkness within her or will she channel her love for her friends and family?
"Save the little princess."
After Jughead and FP catch Kurtz, Kurtz continues to be overly creepy and tells Jughead that "Baby Teeth was only the warm up to the ultimate quest." He further explains that there is still one final game for Jughead and his family and we cut to Jellybean being brought to the Gargoyle King. I have so many questions here. Now that we have been focusing on the Farm so much, the Gargoyle King has taken a back seat, but it looks like he or she is done hiding in the shadows. However, why is the Gargoyle King so interested in the Jones family? Is there a connection between the Gargoyle King and Gladys? We know that she is controlling the drug trade, but is she somehow pulling the Gargoyle King's strings as well. I previously thought that Hermione could be the woman behind the mask, but I'm not really sure what she would get out of hurting the Jones family.
There are a lot more players now and it's difficult to determine who is the true Gargoyle King. Jughead also previously thought that perhaps Baby Teeth was murdered by a copy cat killer. Baby Teeth clearly struggled and he had a matchbook stuck in his throat from the Maple Club, which also potentially incriminates Penelope Blossom. We know that there is a connection between the Gargoyle King and the Midnight club from so many years ago, but what is the real motive here? If the Jones family is at the center of it, we need to carefully look at all of their potential allies and enemies. It looks like no one can really be cleared as innocent, but what is their end goal? Stay tuned!

You know who they are… the clients you don't really enjoy working with, the clients that drain you rather than light you up. Clients you work with perhaps just because they pay you, not because you actually enjoy working with them. These clients are NON-IDEAL clients and if you've got them in your business it may be costing you more than you think.
I've seen non-ideal clients impacting the lives of my clients in major ways, often without them even realizing what is happening. I'm excited to share what I've learned with you so you can do what it takes to AVOID non-ideal clients and the damaging effects of working with them.
Non-ideal clients are people that you are NOT meant to work with.
It is not your purpose to work with non-ideal clients. They would actually be helped much MORE by working with someone else, perhaps someone with different skills, ways of expressing themselves or perhaps just a different mindset. This does not mean there is anything wrong with you! It just means there is someone who is better suited for them. And it's for your highest good and theirs to let them go so they can find the person who IS meant to help them.
Working with a non-ideal client is EXHAUSTING! It's draining to work with someone you're not meant to work with. Often non-ideal clients are people you don't really like that much, and even if you do like them, it likely CONSUMES your energy to work with them.
Working with ideal clients energizes you! That's how it's meant to be. So you can keep the fuel going to make an even bigger difference in the world!
This is because you are EXACTLY what they need.
The same, incredible priceless gifts, message and healing you offer to your non-ideal clients does not have the same value because it often does not create the same results. Remember this has nothing to do with your value and pricing, it's simply because they are not meant to work with you. To your non-ideal client your services are not priceless and often you and the non-ideal client can leave the session questioning if what you're doing is of value to them.
So then you go off questioning your value, maybe questioning your pricing. Yet the problem is NOT your value… it's that you're working with a non-ideal client!
You begin questioning your purpose. You can have 10 clients getting amazing results that are truly priceless, you can be transforming the lives of these ideal clients in the most profound ways, just one non-ideal client can send you questioning your purpose.
When you question your purpose you don't move forward.
You're stalled. You're likely not feeling confident, getting your work out to as many people as you can. And when you're not moving forward, all of those IDEAL clients who are MEANT to work with you are waiting.
Everybody misses out! You need FAITH to succeed and to continue reaching more and more people, you need to KNOW that the work you do is truly priceless, and you need all of the energy you have to do the work you're meant to do.
Thanks for the great article, Fia-Lynn. Your article is right on time for me. Had an experience this morning that pushed a couple of buttons and started the doubting pattern. As soon as I realized what I was doing, I did some breathing and toning exercises and shifted right out of it. We do have many clients whose lives have been changed by our work. It helps to remember that too.
Wow! What a wonderful article, Fia-Lynn!
It sure made an impact on me. As I get closer to my dream of becoming a life-coach, I see the importance of attracting and maintaining relations with ideal clients, especially at the beginning of my career when my confidence is not so solid.
To quote you: "and you need all of the energy you have to do the work you're meant to do." Giving myself permission to do what is right for me so that I can do what is right for my people is great advice.
I love what you share, Fia-Lynn. Thanks for showing up for your people.
Thank you so much for giving attention and a beautiful voice to this issue!
I can relate to this damaging experience and I have grown from it immensely. I am just so grateful it was over quickly and that I have a supportive Coach and community to help lift me up again.
This is perfect timing Fia-Lynn!!!!!!! I've had so much success doing energy work and when I come upon a non-ideal client, it seems it takes all my strength to have a session with them and then question if anything was accomplished or any shift took place in their beingness. Thank you for confirming that you don't need to say yes to every client.
I do know the feeling of working with a non-ideal client and you are right on the money with your 3 points. The knowledge that it's okay that we're not meant to work together is so liberating!
Excellent, timely and most helpful! Thank you very much for this, Fia-Lynn!
I had one of those the other day, and spent (too much) time wondering if it was the timing, the setting, my approach, etc.
None of the above! I thought about that session as I was reading your article and realized: I wouldn't really like another session with that person. We are not a match, and that's all it is.
This is actually great news, Fia-Lynn! It's not just me, afterall! It's the two of us – together – that doesn't jell.
I've heard it said that when it's bad for one of you, it's ACTUALLY bad for both of you… except that ONE of you prefers to play the victim (and refuses to tell the truth… that it is bad for you, too)! [In business, coaching, marriage… all of those relationships, and more!] LOL!
I've found myself working with a man for a year and a half… because I paid HIM… and it's just not an empowering place to be. I've been experiencing the 3 effects, myself, on the receiving end.
Ok, I'm persistant, sometimes a good thing, but it's time to cut my losses, I'd think!


Director of the upcoming Sundance premiere "Selah and the Spades" discusses the influence of Chris Marker's seminal short film on her career.
It's also hard to relax when making one. Philadelphia filmmaker Tayarisha Poe knows this all too well. She's about to premiere her debut feature at the Sundance Film Festival. The days, weeks, months and years of writing, prepping, shooting and editing have come to that moment at the Egyptian Theatre in Park City, Utah when the lights fade, the audience settles into their seats and the film begins. Her premiere is called Selah and the Spades, but this wasn't the first iteration of the project.
In "La Jetée", the striking images are made cinematic by sounds and music.
That may seem like a strange way to talk about a semi-experimental film set in a harsh post-apocalyptic world. But Tayarisha has always been much more comfortable (and much more comforted by) the uneasy truths and the revelations most hard to swallow. Even the film's tragic ending brings her surprising solace.
Though Selah and the Spades, a film about divided factions within the student body of a Philadelphia area boarding school, is a much different story than La Jetée, both deal in the human drama of uncovering such truths, especially as they relate to the past, and our memories of it.
"This is the story of a man, marked by an image from his childhood." — The opening line of La Jetée.
The Man, like a filmmaker, finds memory the greatest obsession.
Like The Man in La Jetée, the filmmaker attempts to go back in time with cinema, attempts to recreate pivotal moments, no matter how loosely, from the past still being reckoned with. Yet, even when the film is made and released to the world, the uncomfortable truth remains: there is no escape from the image. It still haunts.
In this reflection, the director of Selah and the Spades offers us a saving grace: a transcendent way out of the cyclical. La Jetée itself ends at its starting point. The film loops back, only, we suppose, to begin again. But is Tayarisha right? Can the invariable number of possible experiences provided by movies create a certain transcendentalism?
This pivotal scene from La Jetée begs a crucial question: when a film built of still, fragmented images suddenly beget motion, and when the entire visual language the film set up for us suddenly breaks down, what else can we attribute to witnessing but the transcendent incarnating itself into the moving image?
A pivotal scene — when still images become, for a moment, moving images.
It's what Chris Marker taught Tayarisha when she first saw La Jetée at the age of 15, and what this film taught the rest of movie history: cinema saves us. It saves us, somehow, each time we get access to another person's vision of the world through cinema. So what better destination for Selah and the Spadesthan the Sundance Film Festival — a place devoted to sharing as many possible experiences, and images, as possible.
So, yes; it's hard to relax while watching a movie. It's hard to relax while making one. But the pursuit is always worth it.

Police oversight discussion overshadowed by comments about police mistrust
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (KMSP) - Control over the Minneapolis Police Department is still up for debate and the conversation grew heated at a meeting Wednesday.
Right now, Mayor Jacob Frey has sole authority over the department, but a proposed plan could change all of that. The renewed discussion came about following the shooting death of Thurman Blevins.
Wednesday's committee meeting was supposed to focus on this proposal to change who has oversight of the Police Department, but when it was opened to public comment, it quickly turned into anger about the Police Department, the officers that killed Blevins and more.
Most of the comments today didn't want the Mayor or the City Council to have oversight, but rather the community. They wanted elected members of the community to serve as an MPD oversight committee.
Those speaking were mostly people involved in Tuesday's protest, including Blevins' cousin and sister. With them was the Coalition for Justice for Jamar, Blake Lives Matter and many others.
Those who opposed the majority were met with shouting and yelling for them to sit down and be quiet.
Some were able to speak in support of the police and the police chief.
"You are stalking us, the Police Department is stalking us," said a resident. "Domestic terrorism and yes, Mr. Cunningham, it's happening in your ward as well."
"I'm talking about African Americans," said another. "We dying, we dying, we fighting for our lives right now, not just by the police but by people in our own community. And that's what's going on."
After five hours, the commissioners finally voted, moving the proposal forward. Friday, the full City Council will see the proposal again. More back and forth will be required to get the measure on the ballot in November. To do so, a decision must be made by Aug. 24.

Friday, January 22nd 2016. | Animals
Facts about Cockroaches may get you attracted and sickened at the same time. However, the information below is worth of learning. Cockroaches aren't that bad and you need to know more about them regardless their species, size, and origin. You can read more here.
Facts about Cockroaches 1: Are They Pests?
Most people consider cockroaches as dirty and unhealthy. Actually, there are more than 3,500 species on this earth. Only 30 of these species are considered pests. In fact, not all cockroaches live in people's house.
Facts about Cockroaches 2: The Diet
Cockroaches eat almost anything. They are scavengers in nature. They are able to eat soap, grease, leather, hair, and many others. Cockroaches are also great garbage collectors of their surroundings.
Cockroach Image
Facts about Cockroaches 3: The Age
Believe it or not, they have appeared million years ago. The ancient roaches were extinct during the Mesozoic Age.
Facts about Cockroaches 4: The Touching
In nature, cockroaches like the touching. They will love it when you make a contact with their body. They may look for cracks to squeeze in. As long as the spot is comfortable, they will live in there.
Cockroach Pic
Facts about Cockroaches 5: The Ootheca
Female roaches will protect their eggs by putting them in a solid case namely ootheca. For your information, some cockroaches are able to input about 35 eggs in a single case. The larger roaches are only able to store around 13 eggs each ootheca. The mama cockroaches have the ability to produce many egg cases over time.
Facts about Cockroaches 6: The Bacteria
Cockroaches and bacteria are good buddies. The bacteria live well on roaches' body. As for the exchange, they produce valuable nutrients for the cockroaches.
Facts about Cockroaches 7: The Headless Cockroaches
The nasty fact is that cockroaches are able to live without a head for at least a week. Why? Their head isn't much important for them. They can even survive without foods for at least several weeks. Get facts about Bobcat here.
Facts about Cockroaches 8: The Speed
Cockroaches indeed have a nice movement. They can move fast and swiftly. They are able to sense threats by sensing alterations in air flows. Once they use all their legs, they can sprint in an amazing speed. Some of them can even fly!
Facts about Cockroaches 9: The Tropic Cockroaches
Domestic roaches don't big enough when compared to tropical cockroaches. In Australia, you may find rhino cockroaches weigh around 34 grams.
Facts about Cockroaches 10: The Conditioning
They can be conditioned too. There were some studies in Japan regarding this issue. The researchers introduced the scent of peppermint and vanilla just before providing the roaches sweets. The roaches drooled eventually as their antennae sensed the scents. Get facts about budgies here.

La  du Tour de France 2014 s'est déroulée le mercredi  entre Ypres dans la province de Flandre-Occidentale en Belgique et Arenberg-Porte du Hainaut dans le département du Nord sur une distance de  après avoir été prévue initialement sur une longueur de . L'arrivée se situe devant la Trouée d'Arenberg et la Fosse Arenberg comme lors de la troisième étape du Tour de France 2010.

Parcours
Après un départ d'Ypres en Belgique, l'épreuve revient en France avec la traversée du département du Nord.

L'épreuve part d'Ypres en Flandre-Occidentale, passe par Roulers puis arrive en Wallonie, à Mouscron. La course pénètre en France pour passer dans les cités textiles de Tourcoing et Roubaix. La course a ensuite lieu dans un cadre plus champêtre à Hem, Forest-sur-Marque, Ascq et Sainghin-en-Mélantois. L'étape passe alors à Bouvines, à l'occasion du  de la bataille qu'y s'y est déroulée entre Philippe Auguste et Jean sans Terre. Plus loin, le chemin appartient à un paysage plus vallonné à Gruson et Templeuve, où un sprint est effectué. Le tour se dirige ensuite vers Orchies avant d'arriver à Wallers devant la trouée d'Arenberg et la fosse Arenberg.

La particularité de ce parcours est le franchissement de plusieurs secteurs pavés. En effet  de pavés répartis sur 9 secteurs sont empruntés en totalité dans le Nord et dans le sens inverse de ceux utilisés lors de Paris-Roubaix. Ainsi les coureurs franchissent successivement les secteurs : n°9 de Gruson ( au km 87) en direction du Carrefour de l'Arbre non emprunté, n°8 d'Ennevelin à Pont-Thibaut ( au km 103,5), n°7 de Mons-en-Pévèle ( au km 110), n°6 de Bersée ( au km 114,5), n°5 d'Orchies à Beuvry-la-Forêt ( au km 125,5), n°4 de Sars-et-Rosièress à Tilloy-lez-Marchiennes ( au km 131), n°3 de Brillon à Warlaing ( au km 135), n°2 de Wandignies-Hamage à Hornaing ( au km 140) et n°1 d'Hélesmes à Wallers ( au km 149). La sortie de ce dernier se situe à  de l'arrivée.

Cependant, à la suite des mauvaises conditions météorologiques, les secteurs n°7 (Mons-en-Pévèle) et n°5 (Orchies à Beuvry-la-Forêt) sont annulés ce qui raccourcit l'étape à  au lieu de .

Déroulement de la course

L'étape est disputée dans des conditions climatiques difficiles rendant les pavés glissants. Neuf coureurs s'échappent durant les premiers kilomètres : Tony Gallopin, Lieuwe Westra, Simon Clarke, Mathew Hayman, Tony Martin, Samuel Dumoulin, Rein Taaramäe, Marcus Burghardt et Janier Acevedo. De nombreuses chutes interviennent en début de course. Le groupe échappé perd rapidement Burghardt et Acevedo. Le vainqueur du dernier Tour de France, Christopher Froome, déjà tombé la veille, chute deux fois, avant même d'atteindre le premier secteur pavé. La deuxième chute, peu avant le Carrefour de l'Arbre, provoque son abandon.

L'équipe Cannondale mène le peloton. L'avance des échappés est stabilisée autour de trois minutes, tandis que les coureurs ne pouvant suivre ou tombés forment un deuxième peloton. Parmi eux se trouvent Alejandro Valverde, Tejay van Garderen, Marcel Kittel. Dans le deuxième secteur pavé, Nibali, Van Den Broeck et Talansky accélèrent et distancent Contador. Ce dernier perd rapidement du temps, tandis que le groupe maillot jaune est emmené par les équipes Astana et Lotto-Belisol.

À  de l'arrivée, au secteur de Bersée, Van Den Broeck et Talansky chutent, tandis que Lars Boom et Sep Vanmarcke, tous deux de l'équipe Belkin, s'échappent quelques minutes. À  de l'arrivée, le groupe de tête est repris, formant un groupe de seize coureurs. Parmi les coureurs repris, Lieuwe Westra devient une aide précieuse pour Nibali. Dans le secteur de Wandignies-Hamage-Hornaing, il permet de distancer Fabian Cancellara et Peter Sagan, à la faveur d'une crevaison de Kwiatkowski. Les trois coureurs d'Astana ne sont plus accompagnés que par Lars Boom. À 7 km, Boom attaque seul. Il n'est pas rattrapé par ses poursuivants à passe seul la ligne d'arrivée.

La victoire revient ainsi à un spécialiste de ce type d'étape : appréciant les pavés et Paris-Roubaix, dont il a pris la sixième place en 2012, Lars Boom a pu utiliser son expérience en cyclo-cross dans les routes boueuses. À l'arrivée, il déclare ainsi

En finissant troisième de l'étape à 19 secondes de Boom, Nibali, qui n'a jamais participé à Paris-Roubaix, marque les esprits. Il prend du temps sur tous ses adversaires au classement général. Alberto Contador rejoint notamment l'arrivée avec près de trois minutes de retard, Alejandro Valverde, Thibaut Pinot, Tejay Van Garderen, Rui Costa, Romain Bardet deux minutes et demi, Richie Porte et Van Den Broeck plus de deux minutes.

But unlike photography, where a good background helps you focus on the subject, in the world of non-contact ultrasonic level measurement, even a "good" background has a negative influence. Background never contributes to a level reading, it only detracts. But Siemens has a built-in function to "cure" for the influence of backgrounds in their level devices.
Ultrasonic level instruments are always mounted on the top of the vessel, looking down at the material or liquid. The instrument transmits a "ping" of energy and looks for an echo to return off the material in the tank. The problem is that the return echo profile includes not only the material echo, but echoes from any and all other objects in the tank.
Tanks can have a lot of stuff on the inside – ladder rungs, agitator blades, and baffles. The echoes from all the other stuff are real, but they're unwanted, so we refer to them as False echoes. Except for agitator blades, the non-material stuff is stationary; it's always there, in the same location. And even though agitator blades move, they're stationary in the sense that they're always at the same distance from the sensor at the top of the tank.
The classic way to deal with these unwanted false echoes is to tell the instrument to take a scan of the tank with all its background warts and pimples. The background scan profiles the stationary echoes and can then be used to adjust the baseline curve, known as the time-varying threshold or TVT curve, to ignore them. Only signals above the TVT baseline are used for calculating distance or true level.
The background echoes are 'added' to the adjusted TVT which allows the instrument's algorithm to ignore the permanent stationary echoes and concentrate on the remaining True echo from the material's level.
Because false echo suppression is so important to accurate level detection, Siemens lists it in the quick-start, right after the six primary setup parameters.
Remember, this routine needs to be run when there's a relatively low level for an obvious reason: there won't be any echoes from stationary objects that are already covered by the material in the tank.
Running a background scan is an easy two-step process: Tell the instrument the distance over which it should run the profile (P838), and then do it (P837). The distance you need to know is the length in engineering units from the transducer face to the material surface minus 0.5m (18″).
It's becoming apparent to me that people are reluctant to initiate the sequence, and I think know why. Siemens calls the background scan "Auto False Echo Suppression", which can be a scary term. It sounds like something that could really screw things up.
But, auto false echo suppression is there to maximize the instrument's performance and is a major contributor to reliable level echo processing. Using it does NOT require any user decisions or input other than the distance value; it runs a profile and does the TVT adjustment all on its own.
Customers who use Siemens SIMATIC PDM software for commissioning their ultrasonic level instruments have told us that the manual covers the handheld programmer procedure for running the Auto False Echo Suppression routine, but that it isn't clear how to run the routine in PDM software. (The radar manuals have a procedure and show a screen shot).
To address this, I've written a short technical note that shows the simple step-by-step procedure for running Auto False Echo Suppression in PDM.

Q: Missing Documentation: MVCContrib UI-Testing Is there any documentation or example how to use MvcContrib.TestHelper.Ui and WatinDriver?

A: I haven't found any real documentation for it, but there are examples of its use in the source code for the   CodeCampServer project.
You might also want to take a look at Chapter 20 "Full System Testing" in the book "ASP.Net MVC 2 in Action."
It's a really great look at a similar approach to what the WatinDriver is trying to accomplish.
Its discussion is also great in terms of designing your UI/HTML to be testable with tools like WatiN, and techniques to help make your browser testing less brittle.
EDIT: The WatiNDriver in use in the Code Camp Project source code isn't technically the one from MvcContrib.TestHelper, but I'd be surprised if it differs by more than 2 lines of code.  Basically it looks like they borrowed the code directly from MvcContrib and added some of their own stuff on top of it.

A: The code in codecampserver is the test bed we used to create the MvcContrib source code.  We have recently brought on a new committer to the MvcContrib project that is going to focus on this area of the codebase.  Also, you are right on about the Mvc2 in Action book. We really followed that approach that is outlined in the book. Also, feel free to email the mvccontrib email list.. We do reply to that list, we do not follow the SO questions as much so keep that in mind.

ONKYO Introduces Its First HD DVD Player, Including High-Bit-Rate and Lossless Audio
I think I might hold off on upgrading my XA1 to one of Toshiba's 3rd gen players - there's a new player in town:
ONKYO Introduces Its First HD DVD Player, Including High-Bit-Rate and Lossless Audio Streaming via HDMI 1.3a
UPPER SADDLE RIVER, NJ (8/9/07) – ONKYO USA has announced the launch of its first HD-DVD player, the DV-HD805. This player has been introduced to realize the potential of high-definition HD DVD content. It is also one of the first HD DVD players to take advantage of high-bit-rate audio streaming via HDMI version 1.3a. The DV-HD805 will be available in the fall of 2007.
The DV-HD805 is designed to partner with Onkyo's 2007 A/V receiver line-up. Both the HD DVD player and the A/V receivers feature HDMI version 1.3a connections, making the combination of these components the perfect platform for high-definition 1080p video images. It also nicely complements Onkyo's A/V receivers by streaming of the new lossless surround sound formats, Dolby® TrueHD and DTS®-HD Master Audio, as well as two "lossy" formats, Dolby® Digital Plus and DTS®-HD High Resolution Audio.
The Onkyo DV-HD805 has the capability to support different frame rates, including playback at 24 frames per second, which is the native frame rate of the original sources for most HD content. This ensures that the user will be able to experience the playback of films recorded to HD DVD with the smoothest, most stable reproduction possible.
HDMI version 1.3a allows the DV-HD805 to offer the full potential of high-definition 1080p video (the native resolution of HD DVD discs). Furthermore, HDMI version 1.3a enables Deep Color™ technology to improve color tones and achieve finer color gradation. Also, when connected with the new Onkyo HDMI version 1.3a A/V receivers, the DV-HD805 is capable of high-bit-rate audio streaming output. Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio surround sound codecs enable bit-for-bit reproduction of the studio master meaning that this player is capable of the highest clarity and most advanced realism from movie soundtracks. It also has the capability to provide Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio bit stream data.
HD DVD specifications allow for the inclusion of web-enabled network connectivity to develop new and unique content such as additional materials and bonus features. In addition to downloading content, HD DVD users also have the ability to upload content and interact with providers, to participate in interactive polls for example. Compared to other media formats, HD DVD is advanced in this capacity. The DV-HD805 includes an Ethernet port to allow users access to these capabilities, as well as enable the user to easily download any future firmware updates.
Recognized as the leading video processing technology in the home theater industry, the DV-HD805's onboard HQV Reon VX video processing chipset provides exceptionally precise video scaling (to 720p, 1080i or 1080p). When used with the standard-definition DVD format, HQV Reon VX enables viewers to enjoy superior video quality at the native resolution of the connected high-definition display. HQV Reon VX processing also eliminates or substantially reduces video noise for improved video reproduction.
The DV-HD805 will be available in the fall of 2007 at a suggested retail price of $899.
Onkyo, which takes its name from the Japanese "On" meaning 'sound' and "Kyo" meaning 'harmony,' has been producing precision audio components for over a half-century. The company's philosophy is to deliver products that are superbly designed and built to a consistently outstanding standard of excellence. Today, Onkyo is at the forefront of the home theater and digital revolutions. For more information about this and other fine Onkyo products, visit www.onkyousa.com or call 800-229-1687.

Awesome news, wow its coming this fall.

Hell Yeah !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PIHB
oooo really tempting, toshiba has more competition, i wonder if toshiba will have anything to do with manufacturing of these
resevilfan86
Denon Blu-ray-$2000
Onkyo HD-DVD- $899....hmmmmmm I wonder which player more high end home theater enthusiasts will buy.
Actually dont get me wrong, I am sure that denon is going to be a FANSTASTIC player, I am sure it will sell some to high end users. But still, if people bought the XA2 at normal retail price, quite a few I am sure will buy the Onkyo.

Ill give you the answer, in one word..."quality". Can't beat their quality.
tranzparentl
HD DVD now has Toshiba, Onkyo, and LG drives available.
Samsung is on the way for Xmas.
Lite-On is making drives for the 360.
and before anyone says anything about LG's crappy standalone, they have some very nice PC drives with full HD DVD playback. I'm sure they have a "Gen2" dualformat player on the way as well.

Ok yeah that makes sense. I guess for me sometimes it's easier to buy two players for the price of one. That way, even if one breaks, I can still buy a second one and pay less for it than buying one top quality product. That doesn't ALWAYS apply to everything in our lives. But in terms of an entertainment player, it makes sense to me.

Game Of Thrones: Richard Madden On Robb Stark's New Crush & Theon's Betrayal
There have been plenty of interesting changes to the characters introduced a year ago in "Game of Thrones," but easily one of the most pleasant to watch in Season 2, is the hero's journey taken by "the young wolf," Robb Stark.
Played by Scottish actor Richard Madden, Season 2 began for the King in the North winning battles and showing off – so far – some shrewd logic (like keeping the most valuable prisoner, Jaime Lannister, with his forces).
But life slaying Lannister forces can be tough on a young man, and viewers recently saw Robb strike up a couple of conversations with the raven-haired Tulisa (Oona Chaplin, BBC America's "The Hour"), the latest of which certainly revealed Robb in the first blush of a crush.
Richard actually played another young character, Romeo, who became quickly smitten by a woman — Juliet – in the Shakespearian play when he was barely 20, so do those first pangs of infatuation give Robb and Romeo something in common?
"Hmmm…," he paused, after AccessHollywood.com asked if there were parallels among the young men. "I think it's different. With Romeo, he's kind of, very quickly head over heels and Robb's got much more kind of reserve there, where he's never been in a situation with a woman before, where he's been taken by someone. Whereas I think Romeo [has] kind of been there, he's fallen in love how many times already… Robb's never been there and he doesn't know what it is yet. And also, rather than kind of knowing how much he likes this woman at this point, he's just kind of surprised and intrigued by her, and wants to kind of get to know her, this woman that challenges him, and is a kind of light in the darkness for him," Richard added. "He's not taking it all too seriously yet."

De volgende gebeurtenissen speelden zich af in augustus 1935. Sommige gebeurtenissen kunnen één of meer dagen te laat zijn vermeld omdat ze soms op de datum staan aangegeven waarop ze in het nieuws kwamen in plaats van de datum waarop ze werkelijk hebben plaatsvonden.

 1: Danzig laat goederen, inzonderheid voedsel, uit Oost-Pruisen vrij van invoerrechten binnenkomen. Hiermee gaat Danzig in tegen een verdrag dat stelt dat Danzig douane-activiteiten onder Poolse controle moet laten plaatsvinden, en zet een nieuwe stap in de handelsoorlog met Polen.
 1: De scheiding van kerk en staat in Nederlands-Indië wordt voltrokken.
 2: De nieuwe grondwet voor Brits-Indië wordt van kracht.
 3: De Volkenbond houdt zich bezig met het conflict tussen Italië en Abessinië. Er wordt opgeroepen tot intensivering van de pogingen tot arbitrage. Het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Frankrijk en Italië zullen zich in Genève in gezamenlijk overleg hiervoor inspannen.
 3: De Großglockner-Hochalpenstraße, een noord-zuidverbinding door de Oostenrijkse Alpen van Zell am See naar Heiligenblut wordt geopend. Het is de hoogste autoweg van Europa.
 4: Joseph Goebbels staat de buitenlandse pers te woord:
 Huwelijken tussen Joden en niet-Joden zullen worden verboden.
 Het nationaalsocialisme staat positief tegenover het christendom, maar verwacht wel van de kerken dat zij ook positief ten opzichte van het nationaalsocialisme staan.
 5: Abessinië meldt weinig te verwachten van de Brits-Frans-Italiaanse besprekingen in Genève en een militair conflict als onvermijdelijk te zien.
 7: In de Verenigde Staten wordt een nieuwe belastingwet aangenomen, waarin de belastingen voor de rijken worden verhoogd.
 8: In de Verenigde Staten wordt een wet aangenomen die het na een termijn van zes maanden onmogelijk maakt om van de regering schadevergoeding te eisen voor verliezen geleden door de devaluatie van de dollar.
 9: Alle niet-Arische badgasten dienen Bad Tölz binnen 24 uur te verlaten. Dit is de eerste officiële verdrijving van Joden uit een Duitse stad.
 10: Het handelsconflict tussen Danzig en Polen wordt bijgelegd.
 De invoerrechtenvrije invoer door Danzig wordt beëindigd.
 Goederen die via Danzig in Polen worden ingekocht worden in zloty betaald.
 Treinkaartjes vanuit Danzig naar Polen worden in zloty betaald.
 10: De Italiaanse minister van openbare werken, Luigi Razza, komt om bij een vliegramp.
 12: In verband met het conflict met Abessinië krijgt Italië geen kredieten meer voor aankopen in de Verenigde Staten.
 12: Ossinski, de voorzitter van de commissie voor het vijfjarenplan, wordt uit zijn functie gezet.
 12: Bij de Moerdijkbrug worden werkzaamheden begonnen om de spoorbrug te verhogen en een verkeersbrug bij te bouwen.
 13: Tatsuzan Nagata, de chef van het Japanse bureau voor Militaire Zaken, wordt door zijn adjudant vermoord.
 13: De regering van China neemt ontslag.
 13: De Orba overstroomt en vernietigt de dorpen Ovada en Molare. Meer dan honderd mensen komen om.
 15: De dader van de aanslag op Nagata wordt ter dood veroordeeld.
 15: In Duitsland worden maatregelen tegen de anti-nationaalsocialistische richting binnen de Evangelisch-Lutherse Kerk genomen:
 Alleen door rijksbisschop Ludwig Müller benoemde predikanten krijgen salaris uitbetaald.
 Theologiestudenten dienen bij voorkeur aan staatsuniversiteiten te studeren.
 15: De SA protesteert in München tegen het politieke katholicisme.
 16: In Litouwen wordt een nieuwe kieswet gepubliceerd, waarin een aantal artikelen staan die duidelijk bedoeld zijn om de Duitsers in het Memelgebied te treffen. Zo zijn personen van wie de burgerrechten zijn ontnomen, genaturaliseerde personen en personen die een toezegging hebben het burgerrecht van een ander land te kunnen krijgen, allen uitgesloten van het passief kiesrecht.
 18: In Denemarken worden de eisen van de boeren bij hun protestactie van 29 juli afgewezen.
 18: Het aantal slachtoffers van overstromingen in China bedraagt officieel meer dan 100.000 doden en 14 miljoen daklozen.
 18: De onderhandelingen tussen het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Frankrijk en Italië worden afgebroken. Het Verenigd Koninkrijk en Frankrijk wensten handhaving van autonomie en grondgebied van Abessynië, terwijl Italië een protectoraat dan wel uitgebreide territoriale claims wilde.

India is well known for it's chaat items. The taste of chaat items varies among different states. Masala puri is famous in the streets of Karnataka. Can be easily prepared at home and is a very healthy dish. Everybody loves this and can be served as a appetizer, evening snack or as a substitute for meal.
Traditionally, hot/mint/green chutney and tamarind/sweet chutney is used to add extra flavor. You can skip it if needed.
Prepare gravy masala/ragda the previous day for better taste.
Let the gravy masala/ragda be hot while serving for better taste.
Eat as soon as you serve else puri will become very soft and looses it's taste.
Gravy masala/ragda goes well with dosa,chapati,poori and parathas also.
Boil pigeon peas/fresh green peas.
In a Mixer jar, add cooked/boiled pigeon peas/fresh green peas along with garlic ginger paste and grind it into a fine paste.
Transfer the paste from a mixer jar into a pan and add sufficient amount of water to form a thick gravy.
Boil the gravy by adding salt,pepper powder,turmeric powder,chaat masala,cumin powder and red chilly powder.
In a plate, add crushed puris.
On that pour masala gravy/ragda. Remember, gravy masala or ragda should be hot for better taste.
Sprinkle some khara/spicy sev or sev puri's sev on top and garnish with coriander leaves.
Serve hot and enjoy the taste.


Now, for those of you who actually kept a food journal and want to know what you need to do in order to lose weight, here is a link to www.calorieking.com. It is a great resource to locate the energy content (protein, carbs. and fat) of food.
Begin by averaging the number of calories you ate last week.
Second, compare that to the final number you came up with in last week's equation. If you are significantly LOWER than that number, you're going to actually have to eat more per day/week to get your metabolism going – if you're not already losing about one pound a week. I would recommend increasing your caloric intake by 200 calories a WEEK (about 30 a DAY). You don't want to overload your body all at once with more energy. That's a recipe for weight gain, no matter how little you're currently eating. Then, every Monday weigh yourself. If you weigh the same, increase your calories by another 30 a day and keep repeating until your metabolism starts up again and you see the number on the scale go down. Once it does, and you're still not at your target caloric intake number, stop increasing the calories, but MAINTAIN them until you reach your next plateau.
If you are significantly HIGHER than that number, you have a choice. Either increase your activity level (intensity) so you can burn more calories or cut your calories on a daily basis. I would not recommend doing both just yet. If you do, youre body may think it is being deprived and will begin to store everything you eat as fat. If you choose to decrease your calories, don't skip meals. Either make healthier choices or eat smaller portions. As mentioned before, don't make drastic changes. You didn't gain that weight overnight and you won't lose it overnight either.
I know this is a lot of information and work, but I really want to see all of you reach your goals.


Republicans plan to embrace tactics to attract more racial minorities, women, youth and low-income Americans as part of their attempt to rebuild their conservative political party, according to a report released on Monday.
The report, posted by the Republican National Committee on its website, also calls for better efforts to use digital technologies and databases to spread the party's message, register voters and raise money.
Altogether, the party's self-assessment lists 219 recommended changes as it seeks to recover from its losses in the 2012 election that denied it control of the White House and Senate. Republicans also lost some seats in the House of Representatives, but they still hold the majority.
Democratic President Barack Obama, whose two presidential campaigns were noted for their digital savvy and grassroots support, won re-election last year with strong backing by Hispanics and other minorities as well as younger voters.
RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, previewing the party's study on CBS on Sunday, said Republicans also want to improve their presidential primary process to select nominees in part by delaying debates and moving up its convention from August to June or July.
"Our primary process is way too long," Priebus said, noting that the many Republican candidates led to too many debates and too much money spent on fighting each other, rather than against rival Democrats.

Al-Ḥākim
Fāṭimid caliph
Alternative Titles: Abū ʿAlī al-Manṣūr, The Mad Caliph, al-Ḥākim bi-Amr Allāh, al-Ḥākim bi-Amrih
Al-Ḥākim, in full Al-ḥākim Bi-amr Allāh (Arabic: "Ruler by God's Command"), called by Druzes Al-ḥākim Bi-amrih ("Ruler by His Own Command"), original name Abū ʿalī Al-manṣūr, byname The Mad Caliph, (born 985—died 1021?), sixth ruler of the Egyptian Shīʿite Fāṭimid dynasty, noted for his eccentricities and cruelty, especially his persecutions of Christians and Jews. He is held by adherents of the Druze religion to be a divine incarnation.
Al-Ḥākim was named caliph in 996 and depended at first on the Berber regiments in his army for his power. When he took control of government, his policies proved to be arbitrary and harsh. He ordered, for example, the sacking of the city al-Fusṭāṭ (near present-day Cairo), the killing of all dogs (whose barking annoyed him), and bans on various kinds of vegetables and shellfish. His religious persecutions affected Sunnite Muslims as well as Jews and Christians. At times, however, his administration was tolerant. During famines he distributed food and tried to stabilize prices. He also founded mosques and patronized scholars and poets. In 1017 he began to encourage the teachings of some Ismāʿīlī missionaries (members of the radical Shīʿite sect to which his dynasty belonged), who held that he was the incarnation of divinity. The Druze religion developed from the teaching of these men.
Al-Ḥākim mysteriously vanished while taking a walk on the night of Feb. 13, 1021.

On Friday 11th January, the Joel & Son Fabrics team paid a very special visit to the wonderful St George's Children's Hospital, in South London, to hand deliver bags and bags (and bags) of gifts for the brave children in their care.
So many of our lovely customers sent in brand new toys over the holiday period, for us to pass on, and clicked on to the hospital's fundraising link to donate to the charity. The awesome Ed Sheeran also sent in a big box of merchandise! Thank you Ed! It was a joy for us to see the children's faces light up as they spotted their treasure haul - games, action figures, dolls, craft sets and remote controlled gadgets, to name just a few!
These spirited children endure so much, and often have siblings who are also forced to spend endless days, weeks and months in the facility alongside them. A mountain of exciting new toys and gifts, to be distributed amongst them over the coming months, was definitely a welcome surprise for the children, their families and the fantastic team who work for the charity.
Here is a picture of our E-Commerce director, Coby, with some of the children undergoing treatment, and the staff, during our visit. Thank you for having us, St George's!

Loft - Ghost Trains and Country Lanes: Studio, Stage and Sessions 1984-2005
by Tommy Gunnarsson
published: 7 / 4 / 2021
In our 'Re:View' section Tommy Gunnarsson reflects on a new double CD retrospective by influential early indie act The Loft.
In the mid 1980s, the coolest place to be in the UK if you liked alternative guitar pop was at The Living Room, a club run by Alan McGee at The Adams Arms in London. And in 1981, four guys in London started rehearsing as The Living Room, not knowing that they would be regulars at that very same club just a few years later. When they got in contact with McGee at his Living Room club, he offered them the opportunity to play there, but only if they changed their name, as it would be a bit weird to have a band playing with the same name as the club. The quartet settled on the name The Loft (which was appropriate, as the club was located in… the loft), and eventually ended up on McGee's new label, Creation, in 1984. Their debut single, 'Why Does the Rain', was the ninth single released on Creation, and after that, they only managed one more, 'Up the Hill and Down the Slope' (1985) before the band fell apart and the members went their different ways and founded new bands - vocalist/guitarist Pete Astor and drummer Dave Morgan started The Weather Prophets, bassist Bill Prince played with The Wishing Stones and guitarist Andy Strickland founded The Caretaker Race. But enough about all that. This new compilation is all about The Loft. The first disc focuses on the studio recordings, starting off with the seven tracks released on the two singles on Creation, and also the five songs they recorded when reforming in late 2005 (which produced the single 'Model Village', released on Static Caravan in 2006). Between those two studio efforts, we are also treated to four songs recorded for Janice Long's show on BBC Radio 1 in December 1984, of which 'Lonely Street', which appeared on the second single, is the only track that was previously released The second disc consists of two live recordings, the first one recorded at the aforementioned The Living Room club in June 1984. The ten songs are prime examples of the band's rawer live sound, and among the tracks are live versions of both 'Why Does the Rain' and 'Up the Hill and Down the Slope' (while it was called 'Over the Hill and Down the Slope'). One of the Living Room recordings was previously released on the Creation live album 'Alive in the Living Room', which came out in 1984, and features other regulars at the club, like The Pastels, June Brides, Jasmine Minks, TV Personalities and The Legend! The rest of this show is previously unreleased. The other part of the second disc is a recording that the reformed band made for Gideon Coe's 6 Music show in September 2015, where they played four songs - three old ones and one new ('I Can't Keep My Mind Off You'). For those of you with any interest at all in indiepop history, and especially the C86 and British indie scene of the mid 80s, this is a must. The Loft may not have produced a lot of music in their very short lifespan, but as early contributors to the Creation catalogue, they have played an important part in how the indie scene evolved during the '80s, and also the creation of Britpop in the '90s. And if you like this, I can also recommend you to check out those other bands the members formed after the demise of The Loft, as they kept the musical spirit of that band alive.

A punchy fattoush salad which is packed full of flavour. The tangy dressing gives it real guts, while the delicious croutons remove any idea of it being too wholesome.
I first came across this salad in Oman and fell in love with it. It's a lovely punchy salad which is packed full of flavour. The tangy dressing gives it real guts, while the delicious croutons remove any idea of it being too wholesome.
I often make this salad at the start of the week, I keep the dressing and croutons separately in the fridge and just mix them in to the amount of salad I want to serve. It keeps well.
Similarly if you are looking to feed a large number of people this is a great salad which multiples up easily. I recently fed 20 with it as part of a large meal, just increase the ingredients by 4.
Preheat the oven to 190 C / 375 F / Gas Mark 5.
Half the cherry tomatoes and put them in a large salad bowl. Cut up all the other salad ingredients to a similar size, except for the garlic and onion. The onion needs to be finely chopped and the garlic crushed. Mix everything together.
Open up the pitta bread and separate into two pieces. Brush the pitta on both sides with the mixed oil and sumac. Lie on a baking sheet.
Place the pitta in the oven for ten to fifteen minutes or until crunchy. Take them out and let them cool before cutting up into small pieces.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well, then add the croutons to the top and serve straightaway.

Tips & Tricks for Hosting a Great Game
Question Styles
Game Show Studio comes with a variety of question set styles:
Warmup Questions: These questions come in sets of ten, and are intended to be the basis of a quick first round of play to get the players warmed up. These questions are generally fairly easy, so that the players can get a feel for the buzzers and answer questions with confidence.
Regular Questions: These are short or medium length questions that can form the basis for the main rounds of play.
Long Form Questions: Long form questions are great for challenging the players while still making it possible for the players to successfully answer many questions. This balance is achieved by giving several clues within each question. The first clues are tough and obscure (this is where the challenge comes from). The clues get easier as the question goes on (this means that most questions will probably not go unanswered by the time the question is finished).
Timed Round Questions: These questions are short, so that the questions come at a rapid pace, matching the frantic and exciting feeling of the Timed Round.
Consider how you want your game show to be structured as you pick which question sets to include. Also keep these style options in mind if you write your own questions.
Round Styles and Rules
You can set up several rounds before you gather everyone together to play. Try starting out with a round with no penalties for incorrect answers to get players warmed up, then in future rounds, make correct answers worth more points and penalize incorrect answers. For the final round, try using a Timed Round to end on an exciting note.
With large groups, it's often a good idea to have some rounds where teams can work together to answer questions. To do this, disable the buzzers, and, instead of having teams buzz in, have teams take turns answering questions. Or have teams write down answers to the same questions simultaneously. Then, you can tap the team's score on the Host's device and then tap "Award Correct Answer with Sound" or "Penalize Incorrect Answer with Sound."
Automatically Advancing the Round and Question Sets
When you get to the end of a question set, you will be presented with options for what to do next, so that you can quickly move on to the next round. These options include:
beginning the next starred question set (instructions on how to star question sets are below),
activating the next set of round rules, and
putting the Round Intro on the TV (or beginning the Timed Round Sequence, if the next round is a Timed Round).
A little advance planning can go a long way toward making a smooth and effortless game show experience. Star the question sets you want to use and put them in the desired order before you play. One way to make the end of question set decisions easy is to make the same number of rounds (in the Round Rules Pane) as there are starred question sets. That way, at the end of a question set, you can always make sure that the "Begin Next Starred Set" and "Activate Next Round" options are enabled, and know that you will get the result you want.
In the example screenshots above, there are five starred question sets and five rounds that correspond to one another.
Starring Question Sets
To star question sets, tap the "Choose Question Set" option on the Q/A Pane. There, you can tap any of the stars that are not filled in on the Standard or Custom tabs, and the question set will become starred (tap the star again to unstar). The starred question sets will then appear in the Starred tab.
The Timed Round
For a Timed Round, it is best to use questions that are short, so that the exciting action of playing against the clock remains fast-paced. Tips for introducing and running these rounds can be found on the Timed Round page.
Tailoring the Game to the Players
For a great game, try to tailor your trivia questions to your audience. Even if you use a question set that comes with Game Show Studio, there is nothing stopping you, the host, from inserting fun questions of your own from time to time, or from creating an entirely new round with questions targeted toward the players. Consider questions about:
players' interests,
the players themselves, especially for themed parties like bridal showers and baby showers, or
local events and interests.
Also consider using themed trivia from other sources, like board games that come with trivia questions.
Using Timers
There are two main kinds of timers in the game (in addition to the timer for the Timed Round). After you read a question, you can start the timer, and it will count down from the Round Settings' Time to Buzz In. After that timer expires, a sound will play, and the buzzers will become disabled for a brief period of time. This use of the timer is optional; the host can move on to the next question at his/her own pace instead of using this timer if that would be a better fit for the game. This timer can be hidden from the TV display by toggling the switch on the TV Pane labeled "Show Timer to Buzz In."
A timer also begins automatically when a player buzzes in, counting down from the Round Settings' Time to Answer. Once the timer runs out, nothing will happen automatically; the host must still indicate whether the player answered correctly or incorrectly.
Making Corrections and Adjusting Team Colors
You can make corrections to a team's score, change a team's color, and more, by tapping on the team's score.
Plan how you want to use music in your game ahead of time. Figure out which tracks you want to play at each point in the game, and prepare any round intros with songs you want to use before the game.
Keep in mind that a single tap of the Pause button causes songs to fade out. Use this feature to effortlessly provide a polished feel for your game show.
Turning Automatic Sounds On or Off
Game Show Studio automatically plays sounds whenever a player buzzes in, when a player answers correctly, when a player answers incorrectly, or when a timer expires. You can adjust the relative volume of each of these sound effects on the Sound Pane. If you don't want one or more of these sound effects to play, turn the volume mixer for that sound all the way down.
The Correct Sound's volume mixer is all the way down.
Television Performance
If the television display's performance is not optimal (if the image freezes or lags behind), try putting the Apple TV, Host iOS device, and your wireless router closer together with no walls between them. See the TV page for more tips.

In video games, as in many other fields, change is essential to evolve. Surely this is what the Blue Byte staff thought when they decided to work with The Settlers: Rise Of An Empire. This launch is part of the famous Settlers franchise, which has garnered so many fans over the years.
Of course you will be faced with a strategy game in which you must aspire to build big cities set in medieval times. This means that you shall not only confine yourself to the construction, but also will have to pay much attention to other aspects of your society, such as the economy (the main), control the limits, security and proper exploitation of natural resources. You can see that all the buildings are finely detailed, which adds a great realism to the whole game.
In Rise of an Empire, you must have in mind that you can further diversify the creation of resources across different towns and cities. If you manage to do that, you'll be able to create an impressive empire. Although the initial control of the game is simple, to get to master The Settlers: Rise of an Empire is another matter, because you will have to take into account many factors at the same time. Graphically, this is a game that has invested lots of time in very carefully built scenarios, detailed models and a good display of visual effects that exploit the full potential of the latest graphics cards you can find on the market.
Audio is paramount when it comes to giving realism to a game, The Settlers demonstrates this fervently. If you pay attention, you will even be able to hear the jungle sounds around you.
Jomel Manaig I recently installed Win7 and also Lifeframe3... But whenever I start Lifeframe, an error message appears saying that "Lifeframe can only be used in Asus laptops."
MY LAPTOP IS ASUS! Why can't I get it to work???
