It seems the Mechwarrior Online Forum has 28.000 registered Users, according to some Info made in a survery thread.For a game that has nothing to show atm this is pretty impressive.I will go play it, hoping it may end as fully fledged out mmo some day!The PvP possibilites be extremly impressive if done right.But PvP alone does not drive forever...

I'm also surprised at what appears to be low interest. I for one have been waiting for a new mech game with the playstyle of MW3 (the last great one). MW4 was so bad that I literally threw the disk in the garbage, angrily.
Hopefully this game will be like MW3 with online.
If so, I'll be in love!
I'm personally not the least bit excited because I wanted an MMO. After reading the Q&A I was shot down. It's basically just matches with stats. I am an old school gamer and did play Mechwarrior, but I really only play games with Persistant Worlds now. The whole "match" type game is just not my bag.
[MATT C] Each game spawns its own dedicated server, these are not persistent like WoW, as mentioned that would take us into MMO territory. There is persistent game world information, i.e. match results are communicated to affect the balance of power in the Inner Sphere, who owns what planet etc. but there is no true persistent world, more of a persistent meta-game.
When I found out they were just having what they have been doing for years with only a scoreboard added, I was a bit dissapointed. Back before I became hooked on Everquest I stayed up many s late night running a MW4 "No Assault Mechs Allowed" game for over a year on their server. Most of us who have played MW3, 4 and MW4:Mercs have done this to death as well. Hell you can do this even now with Mektek for free, it's MW4 for free, google it, it's legal.
Why in hell would they just give more of the same and expect it to make money? What Mechwarrior truly needs is someone to make a sandbox like any Bethesda style game and just make it huge. Not this same old Call of Duty match style gameplay.
Skyrim/Oblivion/Fallout style but with Mechwarrior, oh man...
What ever happened to MW5 anyway? It kind of dropped off the radar once they got in trouble for having the Warhammer model in their Ad Video.
They need to just get rid of the whole Macross models and move on. So the Warhammer was on the cover box in the 80's, I had the set and it brings back memories. So what, move on and make a damn game that's fresh. Or just make a damned game already!
How about the Clan invasion? That would make one hell of a game. Or have story that highlights Aiden Pride as he learns with Pod mates about his trials before becoming a Colonel in the spearhead of the Jade Falcon advance (yea I read the Jade Falcon novels:p). I could go on and on for ages with this subject.
Yeah, i agree, a real virtual Mechwarrior Universe would be great but its a start to begin with what they do and then grow bigger.As far as i understand the fights will have impact in a sort of a real time camapaign?
I was really hoping for BATTLETECH online..
based it on the rpg. let players be pilots mechwarriors engineers .

I just like to do more then bash away in mechs. Take the ORGINAL idea of star wars galaxies withi more planets and the battletech story. sigh guess I will just dream.
Originally posted by mgilbrtsn Originally posted by dave6660 I reallly enjoyed the Mechwarrior games and looked forward to the day they would announce it as an mmorpg. Now that I hear it'll be F2P, it completely took the wind out of my sails. I'll probably give it a try anyway but I expect the worst.
I agree with this sentiment. I have a poor view of FTP games so I'm not expecting much. But I loved the Mech Warrior games, so I will give it a try. I could be pleasantly surprised.
Whereas this may seem a concern, if done properly it should not matter. The trend now is towards F2P games.
Hopefully hopefully it will turn out well, it is based on a cult game so should have a dedicated following.
And from the website it looks like it will not be too bad, might start slow and grow into a gem.
Sorry guys not happening....
I also wish for a 4-5 faction (inner sphere houses + clans) type of game where planets/resources will be switched and it will be like EVE but battletech universe...
but what we will get is:
WORLD OF TANKS 2
Man, I was so excited to hear about this game as I love Mechwarrior games back in the day. Until I found out this was being designed by Piranha. They made Duke Nukem Forever which was simply horrible. My expectations for this game have pretty much vanished.

Battletech and SJ's Car Wars world are two PnP systems I would love to see realised in full blown sandbox glory.
I'll play it but it's looking like , as other people have said, another "could've been so much more" game.
Hopefully it's not B2W
really hoping they wont screw up what could have been an awesome game.
I remember playing Starlance league in MS Zone with Mechwarrior 3 .. was amazing.. actually i got to the final in Boston where they were giving away some leather coats and an Harley Davidson if i remember.. but since i was not from the US Canada and/or MExico a friend of mine went in my place eheh.. so much fun and only using a 56k modem, lag shooting.. what a blast.
If that worked back then, i bet wont be too hard and/or costy to implement something like that nowadays with good anti hacks code etc..
Lets hope Mecharrior Online will be good..
~ D R A G 0 N . S L A Y E R S ~
personally i am glad that they choose one aspect and focus on it... WAR is a good example of trying to please both camps and end up spreading so thin that you please none.
I am so going to play this when it releases.
This have been a good conversation
I also am very interested in the release of this game. I have played all the single player games and even tried to go online with them but never got past the campers. Did a little digging not to long ago and came across a few pages about Mechwarrior 5. The pics looked awsome and the game play senario was much the same. Even though this is not MW5 I can see how it may be very close. Having said that I will watch this very closely and dream of lance attack stratagies and new weapos to add an edge to any arena. 10 ga.
F2P lobby based gameplay, that's what i'm hearing anyway.

Originally posted by stayontarget F2P lobby based gameplay, that's what i'm hearing anyway.
Yes it is exactly...
as i said in a previous post "World of tanks, I mean mechs". Nothing but get a mech grind using instanced lobby games like world of tanks to higher lvl mechs or just buy it from PAY2WIn shop.
here is my prediction:
Welcome to lvl 20 now u can buy:
PPC - 100000 grind points
ER PPC - 2000000 grind points
ER (CLAN) PPC: 10 mech points (cash shop)
in other news, for hardcore battletech fans, there are few simple but fun Battletech (multiplayer) games out there:
edit: I would so pay a sub fee for a monthly subbased battletech game where u are in a world where u can change/interact like EVE.
I can assure you we won't have Pay2Win as a design mechanic. MWO doesn't have a way for you to be in a 'Mech that can't even injure another 'Mech. There's no wish over here to make it so people HAVE to buy stuff to win. Even though Paul will probably need that...
Same setup I guess as Battletech 3025 Online which Electronic Arts did back in 1999-2000 before they pulled the plug on beta. That was a fun game.

That game rocked, it had some awesome potential, i was very dissapointed when they pulled the plug on that.
Here's hoping to MWO being atleast as good, but hopefully even better than EA's BT3025.

im wet over the thoughts of a good rpg online mech game, used to play in the mw3 msn lobbies for 12 hours a day in league that tracked on paper what we fought over, if you lose the wrong planets you lost access to mechs and weapons (like your clan factories or your ppc factories ect)
as for the f2p model, if they do it like sto itll be fine, just skins and crap for sale and if you pay a sub you get some points monthly to save up to buy the crap, lets just hope its not like forsaken world where he who spends most has most pots to pop on a low cooldown, that kind of crap isnt fun, just annoying.
from the looks of game design mwo is going to have scouts skirmishers and commanders on the teams, scouts feeding intel to the commanders, who tell the skirmishers whats up and the team that works together best wins. i myself like the big mechs armed to the teeth, either set up to snipe on the maps with the room for it, or fuck it point blank loads in the city where i can have the commander tell me theres a guy around the corner with my own radar off so im not so easy to spot so i can turn that bitch and unload in his face with heavy guns or a rocket salvo that leaves him a crater. not that i wont earn my dues as a scout till i can get into the skirmishers (scout mechs might die fast but you are the eyes of the team and you still have a few weapons on ya)
You guys need to check out Hawken. A real mans Mech FPS.
F2P, P2P, Sub, I *almost* don't care. To some people, there are some games that transcend pay models. Some people can see past whatever payment scheme and can recognize the potential in a game.
Is this one of those games? Only time will tell. I am hopeful. Mechwarrior is in my "uber list." That doesn't mean they can put out a shit product and I'm going to fork over the cash. However, if properly done, the hairs on my ass are standing up and chanting "whoa whoa whoa" on the possbilities of this mmo.
Having played all the MechWarrior games in my youth, I must admit I have a touch of rose colored glasses. Nostalgia can be a powerful ally. Or a powerful enemy. I'm *trying* to take off my glasses and see this mmo from a neutral standpoint. I am only partially succeeding. I am awaiting this game with cautious optimism, however I can't remove the images from my mind on how uber this game could be if done properly.
I'm not creative enough to have a signature
Originally posted by gimmesome Really? No other threads? I know there's not any footage or screenshots out yet, but still I would think there would be some hype going around. Some nostalgic pc vets like myself reminiscing about the great times they've spent in Mechwarrior/Battletech games - What's up with this? Not enough PC gamer vets on this site? None of the youngens remember the greatness of the Mechwarrior series? Not enough Mechwarrior/Battletech pen+paper players? bahh....
Oh I am pretty hyped up about it. Being an old GEnie player of MPBT/Mechwarrior 3025 back in 1992-1996. Even almost I think recall my old Comstar number, 5033. Been doing research into getting a whole new throttle/joystick/rudder set up like I used back then. Kids used to love it when my Marauder MAD-3R moved and fired during Solaris duels.
I sort of keep one eye on the Mechwarrior online web site and I'll read news bits when they come out but I dont haunt their web page honestly. Though it was nice to see some of my fellow old mechwarriors are still alive and kicking and will be playing from the posts I've seen on their web site forums.

No matter how necessary your surgery is, undergoing such a procedure generates a huge wound. Your body will treat this as a health emergency and your immune system will go to work to heal the wound. By reviewing your instructions and planning, you can reduce your risk of infection and other healing hazards. Here are five important post surgery tips for a quick and healthy recovery.
1. Review Your Post-Surgical Care Instructions
Before you schedule your procedure, study your post-surgical care instructions and plan. If you need to hire a housekeeper, a babysitter, a dog walker, or any other support staff, do it before the procedures. Expert plastic surgeons in Miami recommend that your post-surgical process must include rest.
Will you need a:
- wedge pillow to keep your head elevated?
- button front pajamas to keep from tugging clothes over your head?
- cleansing cloths in case you can’t shower for a time?
If so, buy them before your procedure and have them in place during your post-surgical healing time so you can rest, heal and recover.
2. Keep the Wound Clean
Carefully review what’s necessary to keep the incision clean. This may include a prescription-strength topical, a saline rinse, or simply a scheduled dressing change. While reviewing your post-surgical instructions, note whether you will be able to drive, whether you should be monitored for 24 hours, and what medications you should have in-house once you are home.
Make sure you also are checking the wound for signs of infection. If you notice any changes in drainage, inflammation, or fever, you need to contact your team of physicians immediately.
3. Allow for Downtime
Now is the time to luxuriate in rest. If your dog is used to a daily jog, rely on a friend or hire someone. If you’re a high-energy house cleaner who loves to get things done, bring in a crew to deep clean your home before your procedure day.
Cook ahead, purchase some of your favorite pre-packaged foods or keep a supply of food delivery menus on hand to get your favorites delivered. This is not the time to be moving unless you have to for at least a couple of days. From exercise to housework, let things slide for at least a few days to avoid infection and inflammation risks.
4. Stay Hydrated and Fed
Make sure you have plenty of filtered drinking water handy. If you have a coffee habit, balance it with plenty of water because caffeine can dehydrate your tissues during this critical time when you need hydration to carry away inflammation and support your immune system.
If your surgery makes it hard to chew, invest in smoothie supplies so you can keep up your antioxidant intake. Fresh berries, protein powder, and other smoothie ingredients will make it much easier for you to protect your body easily without worrying about more involved food prep choices. Furthermore, if you don’t have the desire to eat after a surgery, you can find out how to improve your appetite after surgery.
5. Support Your Body in the Healing Process
If you have been struggling with some unhealthy habits, from smoking to overeating, take the time between your surgical consult and your procedure to make the necessary changes. A poor diet gives your body less to work with in terms of repairing your tissues and fighting off infection. The toxins from cigarette smoke limit the health of your tissues overall and can get in the way of healthy reconnections across the wound breach.
This is also a very good time to get a handle on your stress level. Listen to one of the many guided meditation recordings to help you calm your mind while your body heals. Don’t put a lot of pressure on your meditation practice; if you fall asleep, you needed the rest. If you have a hard time focusing on the recording, simply take the time to breathe deeply and visualize the movement of oxygen through your wound, repairing the tissues and re-knitting the wound.
The faster you recover, the sooner you can get back into the world. If you are prone to boredom, do make sure to treat yourself to a bit of fun. There are so many healthy things to do when bored. This can be something as simple as a new craft project or as involved as learning a new language. Find activities you can enjoy that don’t require you to move for at least a few days to get past the initial healing stage.
McKenzie Jones is your typical Midwestern gal. When she is not writing or reading, she can be found training for her next half-marathon, baking something sweet, playing her guitar, or cuddling up with her golden retriever, Cooper. She loves watching football, fall weather, and long road trips. It is recommended by expert plastic surgeons in Miami that your post-surgical process must include rest.

Months after Sri Lanka hailed curbing community transmissions of Covid-19, an apparel worker in Divulapitiya tested positive for Coronavirus, raising fears and inducing panic buying in many parts of the island. Officials are now scrambling to trace contacts and place associates of the patient under self-quarantine.
What we know so far
On Sunday, reports confirmed that a 39-year-old female tested positive for Coronavirus, following treatment for acute respiratory issues at the Gampaha Hospital. As a routine PCR test before her discharge confirmed that the patient tested positive for Covid-19, she was promptly transferred to the National Institute of Infectious Diseases (IDH). Meanwhile the Department of Government Information said more than 50 persons were initially identified to have been in contact with the patient, who had been placed under self-quarantine. Some 15 staff members of Gampaha hospital too were placed under self-quarantine.
With the 16-year-old daughter of the COVID-19 patient also testing positive for the Coronavirus, the Ministry of Health issued a directive to close islandwide schools from October 5, due to the detection of Coronavirus positive patients from the community level. However no decision had been taken to postpone the Grade 5 scholarship examination or the GCE Advanced Level examination yet.
The 39-year-old patient's husband and three other children who tested negative for the Coronavirus, were taken to the quarantine centre in Habaraduwa. The Ministry of Health also warned of an emergency situation, adding that every precaution should be taken by the public to prevent further spread of the disease.
Meanwhile Police curfew was imposed with immediate effect in Divulapitiya and Minuwangoda police areas until further notice on Sunday. Head of the National Operation Centre for Prevention of COVID-19 Outbreak (NOCPCO) Lieutenant General Shavendra Silva said that curfew was imposed until the index case from which the Divulapitiya patient had contracted Covid-19, was verified. Authorities however have been unable thus far to verify the index case from which the Divulapitiya patient contracted the virus.
Cluster number 33
By Monday, a further 69 persons who were subject to PCR tests at the Minuwangoda apparel factory tested positive for Covid-19, making it Sri Lanka's 33rd Coronavirus cluster. The 69 persons were identified after carrying out PCR tests on 150 persons employed at the Minuwangoda factory.
1,400 employees of the apparel factory are to be subjected to PCR tests. Brandix, the apparel factory in question issuing a statement said that rigorous protocol was implemented across the company, following the detection of the patient in its manufacturing facility in Minuwangoda. While this new cluster brings Sri Lanka's active Covid-19 cases to 199, the total number of cases reported in Sri Lanka has risen to 3,471. Sri Lanka has reported only 13 Covid-19 deaths —a relatively low figure— while 3,259 patients have been treated and discharged from treatments facilities.
Public health and security officials scrambling to trace contacts of COVID-19 positive employees of the Minuwangoda apparel factory, are however now faced with difficulties in identifying residential details of workers and associates.
Speaking to Daily Mirror Secretary of the Public Health Inspectors Union Sri Lanka (PHIUSL) M. Balasooriya said PHIs are grappling with the challenge of tracing the exact residential details of employees.
“The records we have obtained mostly show permanent addresses of employees. However during investigations we found that most employees do not reside at these locations,” he said.
“There are also those who have been long term employees of the company, but are residing in different addresses to those available on record. PHIs are therefore struggling to find the exact whereabouts of a number of people” Balasooriya added.
Furthermore the PHIUSL Secretary observed that employees have been reluctant to provide accurate details of their own travel and association history. “While conducting routine investigations, we observed that most employees tend to conceal their activities or associations, in fear of revealing personal relationships of others and themselves.” Balasooriya urged the public to take into consideration the gravity of the situation and to cooperate with officials in carrying out their duties.
“If people are reluctant to share details publicly, we encourage them to share details in confidence. They can contact their respective PHI and provide details. We will ensure that their privacy is respected and will not divulge sensitive details to the public,” Balasooriya assured.
He added however, as there were many such cases where officials have been unable to obtain accurate details, assistance of the military has been sought in contact tracing efforts.
Meanwhile more persons associated with the Brandix employee cluster have tested positive for Covid-19 in Kurunegala, Monaragala, Jaffna, Minuwangoda, Katana, Seeduwa, Divulapitiya, Meerigama, Ja-Ela and Mahara, bringing the total reported cases within a day to 101, by 9 pm on Monday evening.
Earlier in the day over 90 students and teachers of the Divulapitiya school which the 16 year old patient attends, have been subjected to PCR tests, while more than 60 students of the Sabaragamuwa university are to undergo PCR tests.
Authorities said 2,000 persons including the Minuwangoda factory employees, their associates and schoolchildren will also be subjected to tests today. The decision had been taken following a meeting with Minister of Health Pavithra Wanniarachchi, in order to prevent rapid community spread of the disease in Gampaha district, a district with the highest population density in the island, after Colombo.
Addressing a media briefing Chief Epidemiologist Dr. Sudath Samaraweera said the Minuwangoda cluster and its containment will be decisive in managing further community spread of Covid-19. “The risk of community transmission is far greater with this cluster,” he said.
Dr. Samaraweera has been critical of several decisions taken over the past few months to permit large public gatherings, stressing that Sri Lanka was not out of the woods in eliminating Covid-19. The President's Media Division this evening said no decision has been taken to impose curfew due to the present situation in Sri Lanka.


"The name chosen by the Ukraine-based black metal band Nabaath for their new EP could easily be an alternate name for the band: Firestorm Bringer. It’s as close to a sonic hurricane of hellfire as one could hope for — utterly ferocious, completely electrifying, and immediately addictive.
Firestorm Bringer is also an archetype of how the EP format can be used to supreme effectiveness. There are only two songs here, both of which are themselves compact, plus an outro track that both contrasts with and complements the flamethrowing ferocity of those two songs. The three tracks don’t feel like a scattering of stand-alone pieces thrown together for want of a better place to put them; instead, they make for a cohesive representation of a particular kind of power, and if the EP had been longer it might well have lost some of its impact. It’s over almost before you know it, but it may still leave you wide-eyed and slack-jawed (as it did me)."
"The two main tracks on the EP are the title song and “Corpses of All Religions”. Both are ripping, racing torrents made of furious, incendiary riffing and blindingly fast drum cannonades punctuated by skull-smashing percussive booms and incandescent cymbal crashes. They bring a level of viciousness that’s breathtaking, yet they display a dynamism in rhythm and pacing (and poisonous melodies) that make the music highly infectious."
"As for that outro track, torrential speed is no longer the objective, and yet it is still a fitting way to complete the EP — because even though the firestorm abates, the EP’s hellish atmosphere doesn’t dissipate. True to its name, “Voices of Hell” sets a cacophony of crazed voices against a haze of slow, repeating, abrading chords and bursts of clattering percussive tones. It’s grim, and convincingly inhuman.
Sometimes the best gifts come in small packages — and this EP is one of those. I’m very happy to join with a few other sites in helping to spread the word about it."

Fill 2/3 potting mixture in the pot, and planting a lavender plant, fill the pot with the remaining soil. However, afternoon shade is beneficial on hot summer days. Moreover, you can plant it in a raised bed that is filled with premium bed soil like the 100% organic Miracle-Gro Soil for a raised bed. Heat can cause oils to evaporate. This will mimic the affect of having a pot without drainage holes in the base and the plant will die of root rot. Touch the soil with your finger to identify and feel the moisture. Lavender is a great cash crop, and you can easily grow some as a side business. Lavender (Lavandula spp.) Water again when the topsoil looks dry. Then, plant directly in a lightly moist, and sandy soil. Pick a container that has plenty of drainage holes. The plant has beautiful foliage, with dark blue flowers. Lavender is found in all parts of North America. Companion plants that help lavender grow: Companion planting works well as a means of repelling insects and preventing disease when certain plants are growing next to or near each other. Perhaps trying it in a container would be a better option. It is best to harvest lavender early morning, as the fragrance is at peak and they retain most of the essential oils. Shade reduces growth and fragrance. It flowers most of the time in a year, making it the top choice when growing lavender in pots.

This variety is one of the most popular kinds of lavender. It’s lovely in bouquets or dried for sachets. Pro Tip: As Lavender is a drought-resistant herb, take care not to overwater the plant, as it may lead to root rot. Having short spikes, it’s a great choice when it comes to growing lavender in containers! You can also make edgings of lavender near vegetable patches to save your vegetables from aphids and other pests. Lavender repels many harmful insect pests, making it especially useful when planted as a border around the vegetable garden. Avoid overwatering the plant to prevent root rot. A 10-12 inches deep container is great for this purpose. I love lavender, it’s so classic and fragrant. This will help them retain their deep color and oil.

Judge says no to policy denying green cards based on age
NEW YORK (AP) — A federal judge in New York is ordering the Trump administration to stop denying green card applications for certain young immigrants because of their age.
A program lets immigrants under 21 who have left abusive families to seek a court-appointed guardian and a green card.
But the Trump administration has been issuing denials, saying some are too old after turning 18.
Immigrant advocates had filed a lawsuit. U.S. District Judge John Koeltl in Manhattan had recently ruled in their favor, saying the administration’s policy violates law.
His order filed Monday says immigration officials can’t use the policy for denial of pending cases, and cases that have been denied based solely on it must be re-evaluated.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services says it’s evaluating the decision and has no further comment.

FANNIN COUNTY cued-up “Dixie” on its PA system every time it launched a home run Friday against Jefferson. By the end of the day, the tune was seemingly on repeat.
The top-seeded Rebels swatted six homers and piled up 28 runs in a Friday double header sweep – winning 11-4 and 17-14 – to take the best-of-three series from the young Dragons (9-13) and end Jefferson’s season in the first round of the region playoffs.
“I’m pleased with where we were,” Jefferson coach Tommy Knight said of the season overall. “From day one practice to where we’re at right now, it’s not the same group of kids.”
The Dragons managed to reach the region playoffs despite losing 11 seniors from last year. Jefferson goes into next season with a host of starters back as it tries to earn the state tournament berth that eluded it this year.
“I’m happy with the way we progressed and where we’re headed with this group,” Knight said. “So, yeah, it’s baby steps when you’ve got a young group, but I thought they did well and they handled themselves well. “We’re going to get better. Next year will be a different ball game.”
The final day of this season wasn’t without drama, though.
Down 15-4 in fifth inning of game two and in danger of being run-ruled, the Dragons posted a seven-run rally to stave off elimination temporarily. Then, trailing 17-11 in the bottom of the seventh (Jefferson played as the home team in game two), the Dragons scored twice and brought the tying run to the plate before Fannin County recorded the final out.
“We got way down, and the kids really showed some character and kept fighting and got themselves back in the ball game,” Knight said. “When the ball game ended, we had a chance to tie it and keep playing.”
Making the long trek to the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Jefferson took a 1-0 lead over the unbeaten Rebels (15-0-1) in the first inning of game one with an RBI single from Drew Carson. But Fannin County grabbed a 2-1 edge with solo home runs in the bottom of the second and third innings, setting the tone for the day. The Rebels eventually built a 7-1 advantage heading into the fifth inning.
“They swing the bat well – probably the best hitting team we’ve seen all year by far really,” Knight said. “Our pitchers haven’t given up runs like that all year.”
Max Ford provided the Dragons with an offensive spark with a two-run homer in the top of the fifth to briefly reduce Fannin County’s to 7-3, but the Rebels scored four times in the bottom fifth to lock-up game one.
Fannin County wasted no time establishing itself offensively in game two. The Rebels’ Garrison Sisson led off with a homerun – the first of four in the nightcap – to ignite a five-run first inning for Fannin County.
With Jefferson down 5-1 in the bottom of the second, Jason Demos answered with a blast to left centerfield to cut the lead to 5-4, but Fannin County responded with 10 runs over the course of the third, fourth and fifth innings.
Turns out, the afternoon was just getting started.
Jefferson rallied furiously in the bottom of the fifth inning with RBIs from Drew Carson, Andrew Bartek, Austin Thompson, Andy Nicholas, Ford and two from Nathan Carson to turn a blowout into a 15-11 ball game, and Dragons remained in striking distance the rest of the way. With Jefferson down 17-11 in the final inning – and darkness setting in at a Fannin County field with no lights – Jesse Tallent delivered a two-out, two-run single and Demos followed with an RBI double to pull the Dragons within three runs.
But the Rebels survived by forcing a Kevin Ross fly out to end a wild game two. The teams combined for 31 runs in the nightcap.
“Those games are fun to watch but not a lot of fun to coach,” Knight said.
Now the focus is on 2012.
Jefferson goes into the offseason but with far less overhaul than it did a year ago when it had to replace 11 seniors.
“We’ve got just about everybody coming back,” Knight said. “We lose Nathan Carson and Jason Demos. We’ll miss them. But the kids we’ve got coming back, (for them) to get some experience in a game like this, that’s going to make us better for next year. It’s just all a growing process when you play ball games like that. I’m proud of them.”

Five reasons I got hooked on crypto
Wednesday 09 March 2016
I fell into the crypto world two years ago, and was immediately hooked. Here are just a few of the reasons why.
1) Participating means you’re changing the world. Literally: if you use bitcoin to buy goods, if you are paid in crypto or purchase services yourself, if you use this new technology as a means of payment in any form, you are helping to create a completely new economy - something radically different with the power to change the way we think about and use money forever. That kind of opportunity doesn’t come along every day.
2) It is the purest meritocracy I’ve ever seen. Crypto is the free market, turbocharged and on steroids. (I don’t pretend that capitalism is free of problems, but the system we currently have - more accurately described as extortion, or of privatising gains and socialising losses - could use a little tweaking.) Whilst more and more ‘traditional’ companies are taking an interest in blockchain tech, the grassroots, ad hoc community-driven approach is still where a lot of the work gets done. Here, you trade on your skills and reputation alone; it’s fast-paced, exciting, and those with the motivation and ability make things happen. If you do good work, word gets around.
The crypto world makes the financial sector look like capitalism-lite
3) You get all sorts. The developer who speaks code but not human. The trader who lives in exchanges and thinks in chart patterns. The guy who inhaled most of his stash of bitcoins back in the days of the Silk Road. The businesspeople who see the potential in a new technology, put their money where their mouths are and run with it. The ideologues and amateur economists. The trolls who try undermine everyone and everything because they didn’t get enough hugs as a child. Ok, maybe we could live without them.
4) The pace of innovation is incredible. Without the bureaucracy that holds back regular companies, new ideas can be realised in a blindingly fast timescale. A single developer might code an alpha for a new platform in a week. And a lot of these guys are doing it in their spare time, too.
5) I won’t lie to you, I like the idea of a commodity that might increase in value by tenfold in a year. The bit where it can crash by 90%, well, I can take or leave that.

I am sure that most of you have been aware that those of us who reside in the front range of the Rocky Mountains (Denver and Colorado Springs) have been hit with quite the snow storms over the past few weeks. Kristal Kraft has some great posts about the weather. I have even done a few posts myself. (See below…)
What does all of this snow this mean to Colorado?
Well, nothing good. First, there have been avalanches. Luckily no one was seriously injured. But, according to a local news article, despite all the snow that we have been getting, “much of the states snow-pack is below average.” This is not good because we need snow-pack in the right places (mountains) for our water supply. Proper snow-pack alleviates the problems associated with living in a high desert like watering restrictions and, more importantly… forest fires.
On the other end of the spectrum… there ARE parts of the state that have above average snow-pack- up to 124%! But they are in the N/E and S/E parts of Colorado and do not really effect our water supply. What’s worse? These are rural communities that rely heavily on livestock. Despite rescue efforts of the Colorado National Guard, these past storms have killed over 3,000 cattle, causing a major hit to these area’s economies.
I think we need to strike a nice balance with Mother Nature. (Although I would never trade snow storms for hurricanes…)

- Larger deductions for companies that need to invest in fixed assets or small assets
Larger deductions for companies and businesses that need to invest in fixed assets or small assets
Before Christmas, Folketinget has decided to give the business sector tax benefits from investments before the New Year.
We have summarized the initiatives and commented on them below.
Increased depreciation basis on new fixed assets from 2020
The political agreement of December 8 2020 states that an increased deduction will be introduced for investments in newly manufactured equipment (machinery, equipment, etc.) in the period 23rd of November 2020 to 31st of December 2022. The intention is to accelerate investments in business.
The law provides a gain for companies in the form of an increased depreciation basis of 116% of the cost price for brand new acquisitions. The rule will apply to vans and lorries, but not to passenger cars or ships, nor to a number of machines that are or can be powered by fossil fuels, ie. Among other things, petrol, diesel, oil, gas, coal and gas.
The increased depreciation basis can give companies a real tax saving of an additional 4% of the investment, in addition to the initial depreciation rate of 25% of fixed assets.
Increased amount limit for small assets
Furthermore, it has been decided that the amount limit for immediate depreciation of small acquisitions must be permanently raised from DKK 14,100 to DKK 30,000 (2020 level). This change also has effect for acquisitions made on 23rd of November 2020 and thereafter.
The measures give companies a tax advantage by speeding up their investments in brand new fixed assets. If positive earnings are expected on the bottom line this year, and you still have to go out and invest in new fixed assets, it will be an advantage to consider doing so during the remaining part of 2020, and thus achieve an increased depreciation basis in the coming year. The larger the investment, the more it speaks to advance the investment, as companies can achieve a tax saving of 4% of the investment over the depreciation period.
You are more than welcome to contact us if you have any questions about the above.

- Samples: In Great Britain, France, Germany & Spain the Muslim population in each of those countries was 'oversampled'. Nearly half of those surveyed were Muslim despite the fact that the Muslim population as a percentage of the whole in each of those countries would be a single digit figure. PEW doesn't seem to have done this in 2005. PEW does claim that the data from these countries is "weighted to be representative of the general population". Well, maybe, but still it seems a strange thing to do.
- 2005 results: Undoubtedly the trend since 2000 is down, but when the Times reports that "[a]s the war in Iraq continues for a fourth year, the global image of America has slipped further", you have to bear in mind that there had been a general rise in this rating in the 2005 poll. So, the Iraq war has continued, yes, but I doubt it's necessarily responsible for the fall in America's favorable ratings after the 2005 rise. Other than Katrina, I can think of no other event that could have caused the 2006 fall-off.
- Many of the falls are actually within the margin of error, so there may be less to this story than meets the eye.
Thursday, June 15, 2006
The PEW Research Center has published its annual Global Attitudes Survey. The NY Times reports that the poll indicates that the global image of the US is worsening. That does seem to be the case based on the numbers the Times notes, but the picture is far more complicated. I'm not saying the Times is wrong, but there are a lot of aspects to this poll to take into consideration.

Banks continued to make progress last quarter reducing their exposure to commercial real estate, but it is too soon to declare an end to their problems.
"We're seeing a reduced inflow of nonperforming real estate loans," said David A. Aloise, division executive for restructured real estate at Bank of Boston Corp. "That is being offset by harder work trying to get rid of problem assets."
Some experts say an increasingly tough market for real estate sales will force banks to take additional losses. This prospect follows a quarter in which some banks built loss reserves equal to nearly half the loans' face value.
Bleak Outlook in California
Moreover, the slow economy could cause more problems, and conditions are still worsening in California.
Wells Fargo & Co and BankAmerica Corp. gave investors and analysts the most unpleasant surprises
New problems prompted Wells to add $400 million to reserves last quarter. BankAmerica's goodwill, reflecting newly recognized losses on assets being acquired from Security Pacific Corp., increased by $800 million.
"We're still looking at a multi-year process," said Nancy A. Bush, who covers eastern banks for Brown Brothers Harriman. "And we're looking at a core of nonperformers that are going to be on the books for some time."
Reflecting a shift toward disposing of bad assets, Fleet Financial Group and First Chicago Corp. announced bulk sales, using one-time gains to reserve for real estate-related losses.
Nursing Troubled Assets
But analysts noted that few have the capital to add to reserves. Most will probably favor nursing troubled assets back to health, either by working with developers or seeking investors to assume smaller mortgages.
Optimism that the actions by Fleet and First Chicago would set a price floor for real estate -- and ultimately revive the market -- quickly evaporated.
"Fifty cents on a dollar now is probably on the high end" of what banks can expect to recover, said Ms. Bush.
Indeed, First Chicago revised its estimate of the average it expects to get to 49 cents on the dollar, from 54 cents.
And Fleet told analysts it was carrying troubled assets at 45 cents on the dollar, Ms. Bush said. Previously the bank had anticipated a $500 million bulk sale for 50% to 55% of face value.
A spokeswoman said the average in the First Chicago portfolio dropped because some of the better assets were sold before the portfolio was formed.
Also, because the bank expects to sell the better assets first, the average should continue to drop, which wouldn't necessarily require additional reserves, the spokeswoman said.
Andrew P. Garr, who heads Millennium III Real Estate Corp., New York, said latecomers will be stuck trying to sell unleasable property, because buyers in earlier deals will have gotten a head start in pitching space to business tenants.
Due to overbuilding, "20% is going to stay vacant for years to come," Mr. Garr said. "Do you want to be the last guy to wade into the market?" Because not everyone can be first, he said banks should focus on workouts rather than liquidations.
50 Cents on the Dollar
Weston Andress, a senior vice president who heads bulk sales for NationsBank Corp., said well-leased property still can command significantly above 50 cents on the dollar. But he acknowledged 50 cents may be the most banks can get for unimproved land.
Analysts noted that Bank of Boston and Signet Banking Corp. had preceded First Chicago and Fleet in liquidation strategies. And both had already tested prices in the area of 45% of the face value of original loans.
That put Bank of Boston in position to announce two major acquisitions in the quarter and restore its dividend. Signet announced an increase in its dividend.
"At a bank like Midlantic, the reserve coverage is simply not as high" as at Signet or Bank of Boston, said John A. Heffern, bank analyst at Alex Brown & Sons. "One would have to wonder if their recovery might not be interrupted by a poor quarter."
"The real risk is some surprising fallback into recession," he said. But banks are "in a position to muddle through in most cases."Making HeadwaySelected changes in nonperformingloans for the third quarter Total Change ($ millions) from 3Q 1991Bank of $846 -51%BostonSignet 243 -31Nations-Bank 1,702 -11Fleet 1,424 -10Chase 4,347 -2 Source: Company reports

Revenue in the Instant Coffee segment amounts to US$6.14bn in 2023. The market is expected to grow annually by 6.55% (CAGR 2023-2025).
In global comparison, most revenue is generated in Japan (US$34,650.00m in 2023).
In relation to total population figures, per person revenues of US$4.21 are generated in 2023.
In the Instant Coffee segment, volume is expected to amount to 76.3mkg by 2025. The market for Instant Coffee segment is expected to show a volume growth of 3.7% in 2024.
The average volume per person in the Instant Coffee segment is expected to amount to 0.05kg in 2023.
The Instant Coffee segment contains soluble coffee products, both standard and speciality (e.g. cappuccino) designed to be mixed with hot water. The segment does not include roasted coffee, as well as Ready-to-Drink Coffee beverages which are instead included in the segment Ready-to-Drink (RTD) Coffee in the Non-Alcoholic Drinks market.
The market for Hot Drinks Drinks is structured into retail sales for at home consumption and on-premise or foodservice sales for out-of-home consumption. The at-home market, also called off-trade market, covers all retail sales via super- and hypermarkets, convenience stores or similar sales channels. The out-of-home market, also called on-trade market, away-from-home market or HORECA encompasses all sales to hotels, restaurants, catering, cafés, bars and similar hospitality service establishments. Both the at-home and the out-of-home market are valued at retail selling prices including all sales and consumption taxes. The price per unit in the out-of-home market always references the total price over the amount of coffee, tea or cocoa consumed, regardless of the other components of the finished beverage. The valuation of the out-of-home segment at retail prices means a significant change of the market definition in comparison to earlier iterations of the Consumer Market Outlook, as out-of-home consumption was valued at wholesale prices before. This means, market totals are not comparable to published data from prior years. The price per unit in the out-of-home market always references the total price over the kg amount of coffee consumed, regardless of the other components of the finished beverage. One cup of coffee (0.2 liters) is assumed to contain on average 11 grams of Roast or 2 grams of Instant Coffee. One kilogram therefore represents 500 cups of Instant Coffee. In terms of green bean equivalents, 1 kg of Instant Coffee roughly represents 2.6 kg of green coffee beans.

The Chibok girl who escaped from the captivity of Nigeria’s notorious Boko Haram group says she misses the man – identified by the military as a militant Islamist – who is the father of her four-month-old baby, Reuters news agency reports.
In her first interview since being rescued, Amina Ali, 21, told Reuters:
“I want him to know that I am still thinking about him. Just because we got separated, that does not mean that I don’t think about him.”
Ms Ali is the only Chibok girl to have escaped since the high-profile abduction of more than 200 of them from a boarding school in north-eastern Nigeria in 2014.
She was found by local people in a forest with the suspected militant who identified himself as her husband and their child.
The Nigerian government kept her and the child in a safe house for a “restoration process”, while the whereabouts of the child’s father are unknown.
Ms Ali told Reuters:
“I just want to go home – I don’t know about school. I will decide about school when I get back, but I have no idea when I will be going home.”

HOUSTON - A former judge was arrested at Sunday's Astros game after allegedly hitting a Yankees fan at Minute Maid Park. The 21-year-old Yankees fan says he initially thought the man in front of him was joking when he told him to shut up and stop cheering until he says the man hit him in the face.
Fans who were there say James Warren Dinkins began yelling at the 21-year-old who was at the game with his mom.
"He started by saying, 'You're in the wrong section for that,' and the kid laughed it off like, 'I know,' and he said, 'No, I'm serious, you need to cut it out. The kid patted the man on the back and he and his mom apologized and tried to shake the man's hand but he refused," says Astros fan Lea Menchaca.
It wasn't long before Dinkins' harsh words allegedly turned physical.
"He reached back and slapped him on the face five times. It was very shocking to see," says Menchaca.
Dinkins was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault.
Dinkins is actually a former Montgomery County Justice of the Peace who was indicted in 2012 for fraud for receiving federal disaster relief funds related to Hurricane Ike.
According to court records, a mental health evaluation has now been ordered for Dinkins, which is highly unusual.
"Traditionally at the misdemeanor level it’s not done regularly," explains Misdemeanor Division Chief Nathan Beedle of the Harris County District Attorney's Office.
Some Astros season ticket holders say Dinkins has also verbally attacked others including a special needs teen.
"Next thing I noticed, the boy was sitting there in tears and it was kind of shocking to see," explains season ticket holder Jaime Zamora.
Zamora and several others have reached out to the Astros asking the organization to do something about Dinkins.
"I think this person should be banned from coming back as a season ticket holder. We all make an agreement when we sign our season ticket holder contract with the Astros that we’ll be responsible. We’ll treat people with respect," says Zamora.
"I have not seen an assault in the stands happen, which is why the allegation is so concerning. Us as a community, the Houston area, we’re better than any sort of fan altercation," adds Beedle.
I reached out to the Astros. The organization is not making a public comment.
The 21-year-old and his mom ended up leaving in the 9th inning before the game was over.
As for 73-year-old Judge Dinkins, he worked in Montgomery County from 1972 to 1990.
Now he faces a $4,000 fine or up to a year in jail if found guilty of assault. He's due in court Monday.
