Brokencyde Reveal Track List for 'Will Never Die'
Albuquerque, N.M.'s Brokencyde, the crunkcore crew you love to hate, would probably survive if there was a nuclear holocaust. The band has just released the cover art and track listing for their upcoming sophomore album, 'Will Never Die,' which is slated to hit retail shelves on Nov. 9 via BreakSilence.
"With this whole album, we're putting our middle fingers in the air toward the entire industry," said Brokencyde's Mikl in an official statement. "The album artwork is pretty much self-explanatory. We want to smash everything and anything that stands in the way of us making music. We want to show all our detractors that all the hate they spew only fuels our music and makes us that much stronger."
Brokencyde are scheduled to embark on a U.S. headlining tour beginning in November, with dates being announced shortly.

How your EPOS system can be more than a piece of technology, and help you build on your relationships with customers.
It seems like hardly any time passes between food fraud incidents. Whether it be an animal disguised as an alternative kind of meat, or products incorrectly labelled, consumers are demanding transparency.
For those looking to join the meat industry, there are options beyond cutting. Engineering is a viable way of working in the sector and an opportunity to learn new skills. ABP UK runs an apprenticeship programme for those looking to work as an engineer in the protein industry.
Putting the right hygiene and cleaning systems in place may prove pricey, but can safeguard meat processors from greater financial and reputational costs in the event of a recall or prosecution
Providing a safe work environment is crucial to running a successful operation. While the raft of regulations faced by businesses is a logistical challenge, it is vital that they keep on top of the constantly evolving obligations.
Changing consumer demands continue to drive trends in meat packs, creating a challenging market for suppliers, Alyson Magee investigates the packaging world.
Environment is still top of the agenda for refrigeration, and suppliers are keen to help meat firms comply.
Butchers are facing an onslaught of evolving demands from harried, price-conscious shoppers accustomed to cash-free transactions, escalating labelling requirements and potentially a reduced workforce as the National Living Wage puts pressure on operational costs. Installing the right EPoS system can streamline the operations of a butcher's shop, creating a more efficient business from stock control through to labelling and sales, allowing shop staff to focus their valuable labour hours elsewhere.
With businesses of all sizes facing ever-increasing demands for information about the meat products they sell, from traceability of ingredients through to allergens and nutritional content, IT solutions are on hand to make life easier while boosting efficiency and profitability.
It's no lie that butchers – like all professions – face a challenge to recruit the right staff. There has been a 60% reduction in the number of UK butchers since the mid-1980s, according to AHDB. This decline presents a serious challenge to an industry already under pressure from a saturated retail market.
With consumer demands evolving, processors are having to offer ever-more technologically advanced portioning equipment and solutions.
How is the packaging industry responding to increasing demands on sustainability, portion size and freshness?
Scrutiny on the meat industry means businesses need to be at the top of their game when it comes to detection and inspection. Helen Gregory looks at what's new in the sector.
We've come a long way since using snow and ice to keep our food fresh. Thanks to the development of technology, we're able to keep our food refrigerated year round without having to rely on the unpredictable nature of the seasons.
Whether a major processor or independent, butchers are having to cut meat to satisfy changing consumer demands.
In most butchers' shops 80% of the fresh meat sold is cut and 20% is minced, retail butcher Allan Bennett estimates. Bacon and cooked meats are the main meats sliced, of course.
Unlike the volatility inherent in the stock market, commodity prices or indeed the price of meat itself, the market for butchers' sundries is one that does not tend to fluctuate wildly over the course of the year. Although trends do come and go, there is no doubt that butchers need a steady supply of ancillary products to run their businesses, and that these incorporate everything from twine to sausage casings, hygiene products and knives to pre-packed and display trays.
Legislative and consumer pressure are coming to bear on the packaging used by industries, including the meat sector. Carina Perkins looks at the most recent efforts made to tackle packaging and food waste
Proper investment in IT can be even more critical during a recession, as companies struggle to save money. Adam Baker finds out more

The Groupon performs as an assurance settlement creating use of ThePoint's system: if a specified variety of men and women indicator up for the provide you, then the offer will get obtainable to all if the predetermined least is not achieved, no a one receives the offer that working day. This decreases threat for suppliers, who can deal with the discount coupons as quantity reductions as well as revenue advertising instruments. Groupon helps make funds by retaining approximately fifty p.c the funds the consumer pays for the coupon.

For illustration, an $eighty massage could be acquired by the shopper for $forty by means of Groupon, and then Groupon and the retailer would split up the $forty. That is, the retailer presents a therapeutic massage valued at $eighty and will get about $twenty from Groupon for it (beneath a fifty%/fifty% break up). Or, if $240 price of property portray companies is acquired by the customer for $fifty by implies of Groupon, then the firm will get $20 5 and Groupon retains $20 5. The purchaser gets the therapeutic massage, or the residence portray support, in these illustrations, from the retailer for which they at first compensated $forty (or $fifty) to Groupon. There are specified companies to which Groupon to get started with did not source its suppliers, which includes capturing ranges and strip golf products nevertheless, using pictures ranges have been showcased on Groupon.

In distinction to labeled promoting, the support provider does not spend any upfront price to just take part: Groupon collects individual particulars from ready customers and then contacts only folks shoppers, mostly by working day-to-day electronic mail, who may possibly probably probably be intrigued in a certain product or service provider.

Groupon employs a substantial amount of copywriters who draft descriptions for the offers highlighted by electronic mail and on the net site. Groupon's marketing and advertising text for the 'deals' has been seen as a contributing aspect to the popularity of the web site, showcasing a distinctive merge of extensive fact-examining and witty humor.

Owing to Groupon's market place place currently being largely composed of feminine customers, the provides are usually centered on the wellness, overall health and health and fitness and elegance marketplaces.

There are future troubles with the group design and style. For illustration, a profitable offer could briefly swamp a little enterprise with way too a lot of consumers, jeopardizing a probability that consumers will be dissatisfied, or that there will not be enough product to satisfy the desire. Gap, a large outfits retailer, was completely ready to deal with 445,000 discount coupons in a nationwide offer (even though it seasoned server problems at 1 specific level), but a scaled-down sized organization could change into all of a unexpected flooded with shoppers. A single coffee shop in Portland, Oregon struggled with an enhance in buyers for 3 months, when it bought close to a single,000 Groupons on the one particular doing work day it was offered, in accordance to a single report. In response to equivalent problems, Groupon officials position out that 'deal' subscriptions must be capped in development to a affordable amount.

He accelerated to deliberatly leave me stuck (in my opinion). A police officer arived, and said he wasnt going to charge me , but he could. Surely there is a distance from me were he doesnt have right of way, and when he passes that point he has right of way
Thank you for your answer, but if I hadnt commited a criminal offence, the officer would only have been able to give me a talking too on road etiqutte.
Thanks for your help.
Just a quick question.
The police officer only took my name and address, he nether asked for my licence or anything else, he then dismissed me from the scene without charging me.
Can he change his mind?
Because I feel a fool for allowing the incident to happen.

Professional American football is an incredibly strategic game. It also resembles the way an effective social business should be run. Before every play, both the offense and defense huddle up to call the next play. Most of the time, a play is chosen by how much yardage is needed for a first down, but also giving special attention to how much time is on the clock.
As the game goes on, both teams learn about the other and take advantage of any weaknesses. For this to happen, there needs to be people observing from the sidelines and taking detailed notes from coaches in skyboxes, as well as players reporting how things are working on the field. This information is consolidated and given to the coach so that he can modify the game's strategy - if necessary.
On the field, and before the ball is snapped, players are communicating back and forth as the offensive or defensive formations are seen by the opposing side. Sometimes the player captains call an audible (a verbal call) to change the play, in order to adapt to the perceived threat. After the ball is snapped and the play is in motion, offensive players are running the play while the defensive team is reacting to it. When the play is over, both sides study the impact of the play while planning their adjustments for the next play.
Though this is, of course, a simplistic example of in-game football strategy, it's meant to demonstrate how almost everything is monitored, measured, and adapted depending on multiple competing factors. That's also the way you should set up to monitor the success of your business within your own industry. But this example is only meant to highlight what's needed from day to day. As in football, the most important strategic work is done before and after the game.
If you ask ten National Football League coaches how they develop a game strategy, they'll give you ten different answers. Football is a sophisticated sport with several ways to win. But all will scout out upcoming teams, have strategy sessions with their assistant coaches, watch game tape, and use the information they gather to make a playbook and to prepare their players for the next game. It's all about the data.
The job of the people responsible for social strategy is to create the infrastructure for the business so that they can receive market and competitive information in real time and on an ongoing basis. This is critical to a sustainable, adaptable business. If you want to remain competitive, you simply must have the best information available so that you can develop a suitable strategy. As in NFL games, there are several ways to "win": you must build the infrastructure, but first you need to map it out to make sure you are able to monitor and measure everything you do.
Also remember that your strategy will change and so will the map. Develop an adaptive approach to building the analytical infrastructure. Continuing with our football analogy, your industry is full of potential fans, thought leaders, industry media, competitors, suppliers, and partners. In short, it's the external market and market players for which you are competing. The more you monitor and measure your organization's impact on the customers or prospective customers in the industry (and them on you), the better you will be able to adapt to its changes in tastes, competitive forces, and disruptions.
This is not only how you make it to your industry's Super Bowl – this is how you win.

Shamed soap star Michael Le Vell is back with his lover Louise Gibbons just a week after they split following his drugs revelation.
To prove they were giving their romance another shot, Louise posted a photo of the couple on Facebook.
It showed the Coronation Street actor, who has taken time off work to battle his drink and drugs problems, enjoying a night out with Louise and his sister Susan Westcott.
Le Vell, 49, later posted a comment saying: "That's a great picture of me! Only joking beautiful. Love you xxxxxx."
Louise, 38, who has been seen using crutches recently, replied: "Love you too :))) xxxxx Night out with the family when I'm back on my feet."
Le Vell split from Louise in the wake of his cocaine shame, insisting he needed time to "sort his life out" after being told to stay away from Corrie and seek help for his problems.
A source told the Mirror last week: "He has gone into hiding and told friends it was over with Louise.
"He was bowled over by her but needs to sort out his demons." Yet the couple, who started dating in February, were only apart for a few days.
A friend of Le Vell's said he had struggled to cope without her in his life.
"They were only apart a week," revealed the pal. "She has been an amazing source of strength for him and he realised what he was throwing away."
Le Vell, who was acquitted of child sex offences last year, returns to TV screens on Friday. His character, Kevin Webster, will be seen throughout April, but will then disappear again.

Scrappers rally falls short in 4-3 loss to Spikes
Niles, OH - On Monday night the Mahoning Valley Scrappers fell victim early to shaky defense and were never able to recover, despite rallying in the 9th inning, as they fell 4-3 to the State College Spikes.
State College would get on the board first in the top of the 3rd inning. Chase Raffield doubled to start the inning. He would then score on Luis Cruz's RBI single.
In the top of the 4th inning, the Spikes would add the rest of their runs. The inning started with Jake Stone reaching on an error. Stone would come around to score in Cruz's second RBI single. Raffield and Cruz would also score on Jhohan Acevedo's single and Darren Seferina's RBI sac fly.
Mahoning Valley would get their first run in the bottom of the 4th inning. Francisco Mejia led off the inning connecting on his second homerun of the season, a solo shot to right center to cut the deficit to 4-1.
The Scrappers would get two more runs back in the bottom of the 5th inning. With one out, Greg Allen was hit by a pitch and Steven Patterson walked. Bradley Zimmer then tripled to left center to score both Allen and Patterson. It was Zimmer's second triple of the year.
In the bottom of the 9th inning the Scrappers would get the tying run on base on Drake Roberts' single. But the Scrappers would strand the run at first after back to back fly outs ended the game.
Juan Santana (1-8) started and took the loss for Mahoning Valley. He went 5 innings while allowing 5 hits. Santana gave up 4 runs, all earned. He walked 3 and struck out 2. Luis Gomez worked an inning of relief. He walked 2 and struck out 1 while picking off 2 runners. Justin Garcia then worked the final 3 innings. He allowed no runs on just 2 hits. He did not walk a batter and struck out 1.
The Scrappers and Spikes will meet for the last time this season on Tuesday night at 7:05.

To read all comments associated with this story, please click here.
Hum, I watched the screencast and I guess I missed something. Sub icons within the main icon which allows the user to lauch an app and open the document. Well, I'm sorry but I really missed something here. I've been able to do that for ages with a single icon without the new sub icons. I do understand other corners'icons can be used for other purposes so I'll wait to see what this new feature has to offer. But so far, I'm not really impressed by that precise feature although I see lot of exciting things coming soon along with kde4.
Another thing is I don't use icons much and certainly not for documents on my desktop. Of course, I might one of these days but for now, my only icons on desktop are: big ones for the kicker/panel, my drives, two or three folders and a few apps, and small icons in the system tray. Now, for konqueror (as file manager) or dolphin, I never use the 'icon view'. I have been using 'detailed list view' for years. I know most screenshots out there show nice (or less nice lol) icons in konqueror but frankly even if 'some' icons are cool I don't see the interest to have a few icons when I can have much more info within the same space in a much more elegant way. And frankly, I don't think I'm the only one in that case.
Anyway keep up the good work kde team and please, please, keep it simple and pure, do not overload the beast ;-)
Please stop telling us what do "you" use and how do "you" interact with your files.
You dont like this, ok, dont use it.These Sub-Icons are something new.they are not replacing any other functionality, they are Added, so nobody will not Lose anything else.you want Small icons, ok they could be small, resize them.
and Im sure most these negative comments are because:
a)People have not tested it yet
b)Change is hard.in all of the world, Files and Icons look similiar, so now Plasma changed it, its a little hard to accept it.
and about the Kroc:
Please stop offending.he tried to share knowledge.its not the boxing ring.

DETROIT — The Cadillac CTS will likely make some headway in the resale value arena thanks to the 2011 CTS Coupe being brought into the fold this summer, July/August estimates from ALG indicate.
ALG indicated that a reduction in incentives, tighter inventory control and the focus toward design — all of which can be found in the CTS Coupe — are what have pushed resale values up.
"Competitive products, innovative styling and a value driven pricing strategy are contributing to a resurgence of the Cadillac brand," explained Matt Traylen, ALG chief economist and client partner.
"The introduction of the Coupe broadens the potential CTS customer base and elevates the Cadillac brand as a whole with emotional appeal, dynamic performance and enthusiast credibility," he added.
The 2011 CTS Sport Sedan is projected to hold 55 percent of its initial value after three years, according to ALG. Compared to the projected 36-month resale value of the previous model, this marks roughly a 9-percentage-point gain.
The 2011 CTS Sport Wagon is predicted to show the same upswing, as the new edition's projected three-year resale value (54 percent of original price) is 9 percentage points stronger than the 2010 variety.
As far as the CTS Coupe, its price after 36 months of ownership is projected at 59 percent. The model started hitting dealer lots in July, and has garnered industry praise, including taking honors as the best concept car at the 2008 North American International Auto Show's Eyes on Design Awards.
Don Butler, vice president of Cadillac marketing, said these resale upswings stem from Cadillac's long-term brand-development commitment.
Looking at another model whose resale values are on the up-and-up, the predicted resale value of the redesigned 2010 SRX crossover has shown a double-digit year-over-year percentage hike.
"Cadillac continues to deliver products that stand out in the luxury market through bold design, exceptional performance and advanced technology," Butler commented. "The SRX has brought Cadillac style to the fast-growing crossover market. The CTS Coupe pushes design and performance even further on Cadillac's award-winning CTS line."

'Without the shedding of blood, there's no serving of dinner."
The kid laughs like the only hyena in on a dumb joke.
"Get it, Mom?"
Yeah — yeah, I get it, Son. I'm gathering up his little bloodied test strips.
He looks as white as the snow that's been falling like a death shroud around us for days.
He'd woke up looking ashen when our 2016 was hardly more than 24 hours old.
Grey, translucent skin. Sunken eyes, like bruised blue half moons had set under his eyes. Gaunt, his shirt hanging angular off bony shoulders.
Yet the kid never left the table without asking for second and third heaping helpings. But nothing seemed to be helping?
A robust farm boy of 13 eating like he was famished — and yet fading away.
The Farmer and I'd been saying it for days — as soon as the holidays were over, we were taking Kai in for the doctor to ply a fine tooth comb over him and tell us why the boy ebbed.
But when Malakai came in from the barn early on January 2nd and stepped on that scale some brother had left in the kitchen to weigh the dog, he muttered, "7 more pounds this week —" he looked up at me, "I've lost 20 pounds since my birthday."
No lie, I lunged toward that scale, not believing, shaking my head, looking down stunned at the number: 107 pounds. 5 foot 8 and 107 pounds? And relentlessly eating like the boy hadn't seen food this side of a month?
"I'm thinking ER. Now." The Farmer's in from the barn right behind him, standing behind him, wasting no words. "No waiting till Monday and regular clinic hours after holidays. We go now. Brush your teeth, Malakai, and get your coat."
"And underwear. Get on clean underwear." I'm looking for my boots, Malakai's health card, a brush for Saturday morning bedhead, a tube of lipstick for my bag, trying to remember important things, things that'd have made my grandmother nod approval — and I'm trying not to think why a voraciously eating boy looks like death warmed over and is dropping pounds like dying flies on the last days of summer.
I don't know when I knew.
But I knew before the doctor on call told us.
I'd murmured the name of the thorn that I thought was waking us, murmured it to the Farmer on the way to the hospital — and he'd turned to me: "Well, that wouldn't be what we'd really planned or wanted here. But it's looking like it might be the easier of all the possibilities we've got here."
Snow had started to fall, large flakes, lazy and soft and soundless.
"We're going to be okay, right?" I had mouthed it to him, the worship CD and Ellie Holcomb playing the strings of the guitar unworried.
"Definitely. It's all going to be okay. You know what we've always said —"
He squeezed my hand at the top of the hill there, just before you go by the vet's. "All God's plans are always good and all His ways are always for us."
I know it.
I know it and there words that aren't some cheap cliche but are your dying creed — and I swallow hard round that burning ember lodged up in the throat of me.
The Farmer said it later, when it was just he and I in an empty hospital hallway —
that it hadn't really hit him, even when the nurse took Kai's blood and told us the numbers.
Even when she said a normal blood sugar is 5 mmol/l — and your boy's is seven times higher — 35.
It sorta echoed down the hall when the Farmer said it:
"It didn't really hit me until the doctor came in and sat down on the end of his bed and just said that so quiet: "You have Type 1 Diabetes. And to live, you will need insulin 4-6 injections a day for the rest of your life."
The Farmer's standing there, letting that settle: This isn't a broken arm and 6 weeks we get the cast off. This isn't the flu and we beat this virus. At least for right now, there's no cure. At least for right now, there's no pills, no diet, no exercise will ever make it go away, no getting a reprieve from it.
It's constant insulin awareness or death.
I squeeze his weathered hand.
"Happy New Year to us." And he winks, smiles, nods, everything believed coming to meet us now.
Right out of the new year's gate, you can sorta feel flattened by a bus speeding over a 100 down a straight back road.
You can feel like everyone else is mapping out their future, mapping out a new year — and you're standing there with the map, looking for the red arrow that indicates where in the world you even are now.You can make your plans — but it's God's plans that happen.
You can blink and the landscape of your whole life can change and you ain't in Kansas anymore and how do you not look a little bit lost, how do you look like everything is fine, and everybody is going to be fine, and really, we really are all just going to be just fine, everyone move along, we just need a minute to pull ourselves together here.
"I feel like we just joined a club." The Farmer squeezes my hand back — yeah, just some green, very junior members in a club where there are some serious fighting warriors.
The Club that knows we don't get to make the plan, where there are veterans fighting on the front lines of the unimaginable, IV drips of cold chemo coursing down the veins of the beloved and defiant, The Club that knows about the hurling vomit in a life battle all through the hours that everyone else sleeps and mothers stay up all through the godly hours with the seizuring and the struggling to breathe and there's so many brave all down our streets in this war dance in the face of death.
This Club of warriors with medicine bottles at their sinks and needle marks up their arms and doctor appointments on the calendar and there is The Club of all of us who hurting in hidden ways and are beating back the grave.
"Happy New Year to Us —- Welcome to The Club." He pulls me close.
It's okay — it's all really going to be more than okay. Grieving how plans change — is part of the plan to change us.
It's okay to let go of comparing suffering, let go of avoiding or ranking or minimizing suffering and simply embrace suffering and all those suffering.
It's okay to not be okay, to not feel strong, to carry an unspoken broken. It's okay to be real and grieve losses and hold each other tight. He and I hold unto each other in the dim light of the hospital rooms, alarms going off down the hall.
Malakai pushes himself up in the hospital bed and he tells us something I will never forget, sunken half moons under his eyes:
"Looks like God knew my story was going to be bit different…. and that's sorta cool."
He smiles quietly, nods like he's telling places in me of forgotten things.
"And this hard thing's going to make me rely on Him more —- and that's even more cool."
I nod. Yeah, Son — cool.
yeah —
Never fear the moments you imagine will freeze you: Unexpected blasts of cold can be what draws you nearer to the flame of His love.
Darn the cold. Thank God for the fire. Welcome to The Club of those braving the cold blasts in a thousand daily ways.
"He's real —-" the kid's nodding his head, "I've never felt God so real."
I wanna tell the kid — That's what happens when you get pushed out of the shallow end. When you find yourself in the real deep end — that's when you know He's real. Adios playing and splashing in the shallow end. Live where you can't touch bottom — swallow God.
"I can see that, Mom —" He's smiling. "The hardest things can be the greatest gift. I can see that."
The kid's seeing things. Things I forget, things that can feel like a mirage at times for me, the kid's feeling solid… things that I've let slip through my rope-burned fingers, the kid's holding on to like a lifeline in his brave hand.
Kai pulls up his shirt, aims the needle at his own skin, injects his belly with 21 units of insulin, dabs away the bit of blood: Stay in this moment: You're safe in this moment because God is in the present — I AM.
Malakai grins over at me, needle still in hand: "I am glad — I am glad God gave me joy."
The kid's courage draws more attention that his complaining ever would. I want to write it down on my hand to remember: Brave joy is the magnet for everything you need. The boy knows things I'm learning.
I sit on the edge of his bed, trying to read the kid's eyes, my heart trying to braille-read what his heart's really saying by the way his eyes make my heart feel.
The kid's got no idea that The New Normal means heading down to city's Children Pediatric Hospital.
Where our farm boy will sit with his needles in the waiting room at paediatric oncology with rows of brave kids with bald gleaming heads sitting on their mamas laps like strings of courageous pearls and you'll look into Mamas eyes and smile at their warrior babies and you'll be loving The Club of the Broken with all your broken heart.
The New Normal means 42 injections in his stomach of insulin every week, 56 needle pricks in the fingers, then milking his finger for drops of blood for test strips that will tell him how much sugar runs through his willing veins.
The New Normal means a life of being vigilantes, of charting numbers, of thinking your heart might bust with loving all the suffering in The Club and it turns out every single one of us, in one tender, hurting way or other, are in The Club.
The kid doesn't need to have any idea of this — because the kid knows he only needs this: this moment's grace.
And I nod at his grinning brave.
The grace that's in this moment is your mana.
Wish for the past and you drink poison.
Worry about the future and you eat fire.
Stay in this moment and you eat the mana needed for now.
When I stand out in the hallway while the Farmer helps Kai and his IV pole to the washroom, when I'm standing there reading through the kidney, heart, and nerve issues surrounding Type 1 Diabetes, reading about how someday, a mandatory year or so down the road, maybe doctors will let us think about an insulin pump and how maybe the road will smooth out a happy bit then — and how we'll stir pots of chilli with one hand and give insulin injections with the other and this new normal will be like old hat — when I'm standing there refusing to be sucked into into the worry burn of the future, I read:
"Type 1 diabetes, which is only 5% of those diagnosed with diabetes, may reduce the normal lifespan by 10-15 years. Approximately 1 in 20 younger people who have Type 1 Diabetes die in their sleep, what is generally referred to as death in bed syndrome."
Oh — that can change — it doesn't have to mean 10 less years.
Oh — that doesn't have to define or mean much of anything — a 1 in 20 chance he won't wake, death in bed syndrome.
I stay that night at the hospital, watch Kai sleep in a hospital bed, watch the snow fall outside his window during the middle of the night hours.
And I think of 10 full spins around the sun, 10 more puffs over birthday candles, 10 more first days of spring and how March sun feels on your face. I want him to wake, I want him to wake every morning, I want him to have those full 10.
I want all the hurting and brave in The Club That is All of Us, to beat back the odds, the dark, the fear, the pain, I want all the fighters in The Club That is All of Us who swing Hope at despair, who pummel worry with worship, who make every move with courage while everybody else moves on —-
I want that Club to inhale fresh air and have another glass of orange juice right now and taste the phenomenon of being and feel wind through the hair and believe that what you believe will come to you in your hour of need and today is a miracle — why do we get two?
It falls like fresh snow in the middle of the night, like the steady beat of the heart, like the rhythm of our being:
This life of ours is not our own — He owns our life.
This life of ours is not our own — His life is our own.
This life of ours is not our own — We are His own.
And I turn from the night window and the falling snow, to our boy sleeping in a hospital bed the second day of the new year:
There's The Club of the Broken who ask: So what if we suffer — here is not our home.
There's The Club of the Broken who believe: Suffering is a gift He entrusts and He can be trusted to make this suffering into a gift.
There's the Club of the Broken who live it because there is no other way:
Just stay in the moment. The grace in this moment is your mana. Stay in this moment and you eat the mana needed for now.
I watch how the kid's eyelashes tremble a bit in sleep. Even in dreams, we can't deny that getting to live is holy ground.
Come morning, the snow gives way to the light, like the hope of a lifting shroud.

Eight years after the end of the original Freelancer and the defeat of the Nomads, the four houses of Sirius have banded together to form the mighty New Alliance, successor to the Alliance destroyed in the Sol System by the Coalition eighthundred years before. The quarrels between the houses have stopped and relative peace has settled in. But a new danger lurks in the shaddows of unknown space. The same year, one of the Alliance's exploration ships discovers one of the Dam Ko'Vosh hypergates. By sending unmanned probes through it, it is discovered the gate leads to the Sol System, mankind's home. But the system lies in ruins, destroyed by a Nomad superweapon shortly after the launch of the sleeper ships. Instead, the first Alliance fleet sent through to research encounters a fleet of the Coalition, arch-enemy of the Alliance for almost a millenium, having mysteriously survived the Nomad attack as well. There is no time for talks. In the chaos of a Nomad ambush, both sides open fire on each other, renewing a conflict that had gone for centuries...
Freelancer: Return to Earth sees itself as an add-on for Freelancer, more than doubling its contents in every respect, most prominently featuring an entire new sector with almost fifty new systems as well as a complete rework of all the old systems and additional new systems in the Sirius Sector, too. Return to Earth also offers a few changes to gameplay, including all-dynamic asteroid fields, an enhanced trading system and a far greater emphasis on mining.
But most important of all, Freelancer: Return to Earth is the first mod to feature a new singleplayer storyline, consisting of 14 all-new missions, set in the new Sol Sector. The mod is also the first to include voice performances for all the new systems, stations and factions, delivering an incredibly dense atmosphere. This is supported by background stories for every tiny bit of the mod, starting from the development of a new technology since the main game's end, to the history of the Sol Sector.
A bit later than usual, this is our third weekly update.
The reason I am late and the reason I'll keep this short is that I am currently working on something big I am hoping to be able to show you with the next update. Now let's get this done quickly:
1. - I have created the population zones and patrols for the Cygni system. The rumors and infocards will follow some time soon.
2. - I have written all the texts for The RealJulien and recording has since commenced.
3. - Most importantly, I have begun to script the rough cut of the first story mission. This now has second highest priority.
Also, we will have to go into an intensive phase of research soon. We still have to figure out the details of how the format of animations in Freelancer works and how to get the collision detection of ships exactly as we want to have it.
So, we are working towards a larger update next week, jopefully with images for the first time. Stay tuned!
We're back again with the second weekly update on how Return to Earth is developing. Well, I guess I'll have to face it: During the last week...
It's been too long a time since we last posted something new. While we assure you, we are still working hard on our mod, we from now on also want...
It has been quite a while now. This news is to show you 'no images' is not equal to 'no progress'. While our visual department is...
Hello everyone. First of all, I'd like to express my gratitute to all the guys watching the mod right now and those who will add it to their watch...

Waterford, CT — The Waterford Speedbowl completed their Wild 'n Wacky Wednesday program with a full card of six events on June 10. Berlin's Jason Palmer extended his Speedbowl-record winning streak to eight consecutive events in Legends Car action, while Allen Coates padded his career win total by taking in the NEATV Truck Series event. Also reaching Victory Lane were Patrick Williams in the X-Cars, Bubby Brouwer in the X-Modifieds, Alex Canestrari in the Super X-Cars, and Chris Lamartire in the Bandoleros.
The Legends cars were up first for their 20-lap event, and Farmington's Justin Rau led first six laps when the only caution of the race waved for Dylan Liseo who had spun in turn two. On the restart, Rau again jumped out to the lead. Palmer moved into second on lap eight after starting mid-pack, with George Whitney advancing to third. The bottom lane was open for Palmer to challenge Rau at the event's halfway mark, and he overtook the lead as the pair reached the backstretch.

Cheney suffered his first attack at the age of 37, something many geeks can relate to. He had four more heart attacks and he eventually got a pacemaker and digital defibrillator installed a few years ago.
Interestingly, when the time came to replace the defibrillator in 2007, Cheney ordered the doctors to disable wireless connectivity for fear that terrorists could hijack the device and cause him to suffer yet another heart attack.
In 2010 Cheney underwent surgery to have a battery operated pump installed, while he was waiting for a proper heart transplant. He received the transplant last year, after waiting for a donor heart for 20 months.
He told CNN's Sanjay Gupta that he's feeling fantastic now and that he practically got a new lease on life.

JUNEAU (AP) --A bill that gives Alaskans rights in medical disagreements with insurance companies was signed into law Thursday by Gov. Tony Knowles.
Rep. Norm Rokeberg's ''Patient Bill of Rights'' sets out new appeal procedures when patients are denied requests for services.
''The idea is to increase quality of care and freedom of choice and minimize the frustration people have in getting preapproved for procedures,'' said Rokeberg, R-Anchorage
However, Rep. Eric Croft, D-Anchorage, said the bill falls short of a comprehensive resolution to questions surrounding managed care.
''The fundamental issue in health reform is what happens when a doctor says a treatment is medically necessary and the insurance company says it will only pay for a cheaper, less effective alternative,'' Croft said.
Croft said early versions of the bill attempted to address the ''medical necessity'' question but the final version favors insurance companies over doctors and patients.
Rokeberg said the medical necessity question has been disputed by insurance companies and medical associations for more than 30 years. He said the new law's claims review process incorporates elements of the debate, such as standards of care in a community, and gives patients a way to overcome denials.
He said the new law addresses an issue that has frustrated many Alaskans: preapproval of benefits, in which insurance companies require a call before they agree to pay for a medical test or service.
Under the law, patients denied a service have the right to an internal appeal. The appeal must be reviewed by an insurance company employee holding the same professional license as the patient's health care provider. In other words, Rokeberg said, if a patient's doctor orders a test and preapproval is denied, the appeal must be reviewed by an insurance company doctor, not a nurse, physicians assistant or other company employee.
''They have a better understanding of the diagnosis of the case,'' Rokeberg said.
If a claim is denied internally, the law requires an external claims review procedure. Claims must be reviewed by an independent panel, under contract with the insurance company, of at least two physicians or specialists. Patients must have an answer within 21 days of filing their appeal.
''The two-step internal review mechanism and the third-party external review appeal procedure gives the average person an opportunity to have a fair and impartial hearing of whether or not the disputed benefits should be paid,'' Rokeberg said.
For insurance policies that cover emergency services, the law sets up a ''prudent person'' standard. Policies must cover emergency services that a layman would say was necessary, Rokeberg said.
The law prohibits insurers from limiting a patient's choice of doctors, Rokeberg said, although using a physician outside a company's list of providers could mean an increase in the patient's premium.
The law also prohibits financial incentive clauses between insurers and doctors that reward doctors for not recommending expensive procedures.
The law also:
--Allows physicians to advocate for their patients without risk of penalty or termination by the managed care company with which they contract.
--Prohibits ''gag clauses'' that deny health care providers the right to inform patients of all treatment options.
--Requires coverage of services in another community if a medical service is not available in a patient's home town.
--Requires health plans to describe which prescription medications are covered and which are excluded.
--Requires health plans to describe available translation or interpreter services.
Insurance companies could face civil liabilities for violating provisions of the law.
The bill takes effect July 1, 2001.

You may strive to be the perfect employee, but sometimes even the most competent workers can screw up an assignment or make a bad career move.
While some mistakes can be easily smoothed over, others might require more drastic measures to redeem yourself. The important thing is to take responsibility for your mistake, learn from it and move on. In fact, the mistakes you make now could even help your career in the long term.
Get started with a free financial assessment.
Get started with a free financial assessment.
"Making a mistake can absolutely have positive effect on the future by showing you that something does not work," says Robyn Dizes, manager of career development Services at Peirce College in Philadelphia. "By recognizing your mistakes, you give yourself the opportunity to learn from — and not repeat — the same mistake."
From oversharing personal information on social media to misspending millions of dollars by ordering too much paper, here are seven true-life career blunders that offer some pretty valuable lessons.
Mistake #1: Kissing a Consultant
Name: Richie Frieman
Occupation: Author, illustrator and columnist www.richiefrieman.com
"I was maybe three years out of college and went with my boss to meet a consultant we hired. My boss, a female, and the consultant, also a female, had met many times before, but I had only met the consultant twice. When we got to her office, my boss went in first to greet her and did so with a kiss on the cheek. They were so happy to see each other, it was like they were old friends. I got caught up in the excitement I guess. So, then it was my turn and well, I went in for the kiss on the cheek too, without hesitation. This is only having met this person – who was a business contact – a couple times before. Hardly enough for a kiss hello on the cheek. Nothing was said of this at all, and I don't think she thought it was weird, but to this day, I can't recall anything that happened in that meeting after that kiss hello. I felt like it was a total rookie mistake.
"After this, I realized that a handshake can say a lot more and is always the safest way to go. Now, I always give a nice handshake and let my smile and words express how happy I am to see them."
Mistake #2: Taking Criticism Personally
Name: Terry Lin
Occupation: Equity salesperson for UBS Investment Bank
"At first I had trouble adapting to the culture at an investment bank, particularly on the sales and trading side where pressure is high during trading hours. Many movies have tried to capture the energy of a trading floor, but most miss the mark. Oftentimes, it can be a feast or famine situation with regards to the pressure. Colleagues may email you and ring you up 30 seconds later to see if you've read it. Traders may yell at their colleagues one minute, then be very cordial on the phone with clients with the snap of a finger.
"I almost quit two months into the job, thinking it was too much for me. But then I realized that in a hyper-competitive industry where perfection and client presentability is important, one cannot take criticism personally. Once I got the mindset that it wasn't about me, it made things a lot easier. It's like when you meet someone in a bad mood at a grocery store — are they really a bad person, or did they just have a terrible day at work? I changed my mindset to solutions-oriented thinking, which is what your line manager cares about the most. If you can demonstrate that you've processed what went wrong, not take it personally and know how to avoid it the next time, you are well on your way to becoming a valued member of the team."
Mistake #3: Messing Up Important Orders
Name: Steve Belanger
Occupation: Writer, actor and author
"Back in 1988, at the age of 22 and in my first big job in Manhattan, I accidentally almost put a huge company into bankruptcy. I had just gotten a job in the production department of Penthouse Magazine, and I was responsible for ordering all of the paper used to print not only Penthouse, but the dozen or so other titles that General Media Inc. produced. I somehow screwed up the initial order and repeated it for months, doubling and tripling the amount of paper I was ordering. Nobody noticed it until the resultant bills and storage charges finally almost drove the company broke.
"I was very nearly fired, but instead everyone further up the chain of command was afraid of being drawn into my blunder, so they just hid the problem and made me figure out a way out of it. We eventually used up all of the paper and I went on to have an extremely successful career in publishing. I was a vice president/general manager at Time Inc. when I left the executive side of the biz to be a writer.
"The 'big picture-ness' of that event didn't really hit until further on in my career. In later years, when I'd run into big problems, I would think back to how I recovered from that massive error and know that no matter how huge the problem, there was always some type of solution. I include the story of my paper debacle in my memoir 'My Penthouse Past: Failing My Way Up the Corporate Ladder of an Empire Built on Skin.'"
Mistake #4: Putting Up With Verbal Abuse
Name: Heather Taylor
Occupation: Social media manager, MyCorporation.com
"I think the biggest mistake I made in my career happened really early on, and that was staying in a place for too long where you get verbally abused constantly. When I graduated from college three years ago, I worked as a copywriter in a small advertising agency where getting talked down to every day was the norm. There was a ton of micromanagement on everything you did and how you did it. No Facebook or email checking, no text messaging, and you had to keep a log every day of what you did and how long it took you to do it. Any kind of talking — from just regular chitchat to even asking a work-related question — was off-limits, which is literally insane to do in an advertising environment.
"I was there for nine months and job searched constantly to get out and finally did in the ninth month. Once I did get out, and was made a social media manager at my current job over a small team of two additional people in my department, I knew from day one that I wanted to be the kind of manager who would never go on a power trip. Lots of open communication is key to how I work as a manager. I sign off on almost all of my emails to my team with a little note saying that if they ever have any questions or comments, to let me know. And I definitely don't yell at them or make them feel incompetent. Nobody should be sitting in their room or their cars before starting the work day crying, because they dread it that much."
Mistake #5: Not Paying Attention to Detail
Name: Carly Fauth
Occupation: Director of marketing and outreach, MoneyCrashers.com
"When I was younger, I worked for an independent retail company and every item in inventory for sale had a 12-digit bar code associated with it. One day when I was working on an inventory audit, my supervisor asked me to transfer a few item numbers to the home office to clean up the in-store inventory on the computer system. The computer system had options to transfer selected items or to transfer all of the items. I had done plenty of audits in the past and knew full well that you should never click on the 'transfer all' button, but I wasn't paying attention and that's the one I pressed, which resulted in my major mistake.
"It happened on a Saturday and there was no one at the home office who could fix it. We had to write down the item numbers for all sales for that day and could only take cash payments. After we got the problem fixed the following Monday, we had to enter in all of the sales from the previous Saturday. It was quite embarrassing.
"I learned that no matter what you're doing at work, whether you think the work is mundane or not and whether or not you've done it many times before, it's still important to pay attention to detail. It did make me a better worker in the long run."
Mistake #6: Oversharing on Social Media
Name: Joel Ehrlich
Occupation: President, The Harmony Group, LLC
"One of my biggest mistakes was going overboard with social media postings that didn't truly represent the personal brand I wanted. I posted silly photos on Facebook and even made some political comments on Twitter. My way out was saying that as a big-time marketer, I had to live the life as one of my client's targeted consumers and without that knowledge I couldn't plan a proper marketing roadmap/strategy. I learned that social media can be very dangerous."
Mistake #7: Not Planning for the Future
Name: Ian Aronovich
Occupation: President and co-founder, GovernmentAuctions.org
"When the recession first set in, we thought our business would hold up and that there was no way we would be affected. However, the recession eventually caught up with us.
"Back in 2003 when we first launched our business, the membership fee for subscribing to our website was $39.95 per year without any free trials to start or automatic rebilling at the end of the membership term. Each customer whose membership expired would have to go back, put in payment information and start a new subscription. And we did not even send them a reminder. When the recession hit, the rate which we acquired new members and retained old ones put us in a position where our business reached a growth plateau. In fact, we actually began to decline to a level we could not be comfortable with given our monthly expenses.
"If we couldn't come up with any redeeming ideas, the business would end in failure. My business partner and I had meetings to deal with the crisis. During the process, we realized the key to our problems was that our initial revenue model was not as focused as it should be on the future.
"After tossing a few ideas around, we decided to adjust our revenue model by providing every new customer with a free trial upon membership activation along with a monthly rebilling system, all while simultaneously collecting payment information to bill them monthly until they cancelled. We tested dozens of monthly billing price points and eventually came up with a three-day free trial to go with a recurring $18.95 monthly subscription fee after the trial period is over. Had we not come up with a creative plan to change the way we handle our customer memberships, our company may not be around today."
