Sega Superstars Tennis piles on the Jet Set Radio references - SendMeRSS
2008-01-30 23:35:00 Sega Superstars Tennis piles on the Jet Set Radio referencesFiled under: Screens If, like us, Sega Superstars Tennis has driven you into a tennis frenzy (a "tenzy"), you will be very happy to gawk at these new screenshots. If you're not into tennis, but all about Sega (which we were until Sega convinced us fully) you can enjoy picking out characters in the background of the Jet Set Radio stage.In this screenshot, there's an obvious police contingent surrounding the stage, leading us to wonder if they're there to spectate or if Captain Onishima will be arresting us for playing tennis.

When Freelance Writing Piles Up
2008-01-26 00:18:00 In freelance writing, it's often a case of feat or famine. Some weeks I have little going on besides regulars and a few residual income projects. Other weeks, last this week, I have slammed pretty much beyond capacity. How do you handle it when you're pretty sure that no human can do the amount of work you have?1. Breathe. Panic is not an option. Keep breathing, and believe you can do it- Little-Engine-That-Could style. 2. Rewards. Break up the work into smaller chunks and give yourself a reward after each one. I'm trying to keep some New Year's resolutions and not opting for food rewards as often. This month it has been YouTube rewards. After each successful increment of the mountain o' work, I give myself license to watch something cool on YouTube before delving back into the pile.3. Be more realistic. Three Elance projects, one RAC one, three regulars, a PLR package, a Bella article and four blogs probably wasn't the best idea for one week's work. Next week, anyone who can...

Government piles filesharing pressure on UK ISPs
2008-01-08 18:06:00 Minister threatens legislation deadline By Chris Williams → More by this author Published Tuesday 8th January 2008 15:50 GMT The government turned up the heat on internet providers today, warning that laws to force disconnection of illegal filesharers are already being drafted for a parliamentary debut in November. Lord Triesman, the minister for intellectual property, said that if ISPs can’t agree a voluntary scheme with the music and film industries by the end of summer, he will press Gordon Brown to introduce legislation in the next Queen’s speech. It’s the first time Triesman has put a public timescale on the threat he made last autumn to bypass self-regulation. The minister was speaking at the launch of the government consultation on new copyright exceptions following 2006’s wide-ranging Gowers Review of intellectual property in the UK. Triesman emphasised that the government speaks with one voice on illegal filesharing. “We’re not prepared...

2007-11-21 11:00:00 Folks!MalaysiaKini today released another delicious video and it was all about our most favorite word, ?Corruption!? Yes folks, I go nuts and do a ?joget? dance right in front of my laptop whenever I hear that magical word.Courtesy of MalaysiaKiniI have no idea what that video was all about since MalaysiaKini as of time of writing did not provide us with any details about it. All I know is that GERAK?s Chairman Mohamad Ezam Mohd Noor today gave ACA a visit to seek news about some classic cases of corruptions.We should give Ezam and GERAK a big round of applause. Their persistence and commitment towards eradicating corruptions are highly laudable. Such persistence shown by GERAK would make those folks over at ACA sweat a little bit and this would spur them to do their jobs better. Let them know that they are being watched!Concerned ordinary Malaysians who have their very own blogs should do the same too. We should work in tandem with GERAK and this would pile more pressure on ACA and...

Rocks & Piles of Dirt
2007-09-23 19:59:00 Top Photo: Berm!Bottom Photo: Rock!Okay, Msugarcity, here it is. I made a berm out of upside down sod, which in turn freed up my wheelbarrow, which in turn made room for a rock. Now the rock has wheels and I'll be able to move it up front!I may goof around with shape of the berm, and I may make it go behind the little azalea instead of in front of it. But here's my thought: I'll cover it with a little compost, put a weedblock on it for the winter, and then in the spring maybe I'll plant some groundcover on it. I already have some Kinnikinnick there, I could add to it. I suppose I could do other things too, but what's neat about this is that it provides a little bit of a border between our yard and our neighbor's yard. Our back yard has no fence, and we like it that way since it opens on to a green space and then looks out over a cute little alley which bisects the neighborhood. This makes our yard appear bigger and more woodsy than it really is. The berm creates a smidgen of ...

Ew!When I first called to set up our phone service here in Idaho Falls last October, the nice lady I talked to was a virtual welcoming committee, sharing all things good and bad about the area.“Hobos are horrible here,” she said at the end of our conversation.I imagined scads of homeless people filing the sidewalks of old downtown, complete with smudged faces and polka-dot bindles. I said something silly about not knowing Idaho Falls had a problem with the destitute.She laughed. “No. Hobo Spiders. They’re nasty!” She explained how the Hobo killed entire populations and kept most Idaho residents entrenched in fear. Okay, so I’m exaggerating. She said something about them being poisonous and drawn to large piles of unfinished laundry. Just what I n...

Saturated Fat Diet Piles on Pounds Around Organs
2007-08-16 09:48:00 Scarsdale Low-Carb Diet. This is the last diet you’ll ever need. 100% Guaranteed. CB Only. Having a large amount of such “visceral fat” is associated with increased risk of heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes, said Dr. Kerry Stewart, an associate professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. It’s not clear if switching to a diet containing more unsaturated fats, like those found in vegetable oils, will reduce or prevent the accumulation of visceral fat, Stewart said. The Mediterranean Diet. Safe, easy (very easy) achievable diet & recipes. Centuries of proof and it’s tasty. However, there are many reasons to eat diets low in saturated fats, including lowering one’s risk of heart disease and high cholesterol, according to Stewart. “Our study would suggest that less visceral fat is another reason,” Stewart said. The research was scheduled to be presented Sunday in Chicago at the American Col...

Broder Piles On
2007-08-06 18:20:00 Believe me when I tell you that I am in absolutely no mood to defend the 110th Congress at this moment, but I am compelled to do so because of this particularly awful column by David Broder that appeared in the Washington Post and the Bucks County Courier Times yesterday.The distinguishing characteristic of this Congress was on vivid display the other day when the House debated a bill to expand the federal program that provides health insurance for children of the working poor.Even when it is performing a useful service, this Congress manages to look ugly and mean-spirited. So much blood has been spilled, so much bile stockpiled on Capitol Hill, that no good deed goes untarnished.How artful of Broder in ultimate ?concern troll? mode to heap blame like this anonymously, attacking the Democrats through implication since they?re running the show. And Congress was not ugly and mean-spirited towards Clinton while his administration produced 22 million new non-farm sector jobs and deliver...

Lima: Defining cluster munitions and destroying stockpiles
2007-05-27 11:30:00 Disarmament Insight note ? although the world's biggest producers of the munitions - the United States, Russia and China - are still not among them, delegates from 68 countries met late last week in the Peruvian capital, Lima, to broaden support for a declaration agreed to in Norway in February calling for a ban on cluster bombs by 2008. More than a third joined the process for the first time, having missed the Oslo meeting. The post below from our guest blogger Jamie Stocker reports on the second day of this meeting: reporting on the Lima Conference?s final day will follow soon.The second day of the three-day Lima Conference began with talks about storage and stockpile destruction of cluster munitions. Though the majority of delegates expressed support for the destruction of banned weapons as soon as possible, others thought it necessary to allow more time, as well as renewal periods for states ?unable? to destroy their stockpiles within the set deadlines.

Brush Piles 101
2007-05-16 02:53:00 That autumnal chill in the air means one thing for many homeowners: the season of leaf raking is at hand. Thoughts naturally turn to cleaning up the yard in that annual ritual of outdoor orderliness. But before you pile a season's worth of leaves, tree limbs, and garden debris by the curb, consider the year-round needs of your wild neighbors. You can make a difference in restoring and preserving wildlife habitat in your communities, and creating a brush-pile shelter for wild animals is a simple way to start. Throughout the year, wild animals need dense cover in which to hide from predators, rest, nest, and seek shelter from severe weather. When deciduous trees and shrubs lose their foliage, permanent sources of cover become even more important. Creating a brush pile is an inexpensive and easy way to provide critical shelter and cover for ground-nesting birds, reptiles and amphibians, chipmunks, rabbits, and other small ...
