This article was first published in the May 2017 Corn Hill Gazette.
Editor's note: This month we continue our series highlighting the many fine restaurants in Corn Hill. Look for a different one each month!
West Edge Restaurant is already familiar to many Corn Hill residents, and for good reason. This month the riverside establishment celebrates its second anniversary! Owner Carrie Beagle, a former Corn Hill resident, purchased the restaurant, previously known as Tap and Table, as "a dream come true."
Carrie has many years' experience in the food industry, beginning at age 16 at Penfield Country Club. She worked for five years at Mario's where she learned the intricacies of serving brunch, and spent ten years as director of Food and Beverages at the former Marriott Hotel in Henrietta. After leaving that position she was offered other prestigious jobs, including one at a resort in Vermont. But she really wanted to stay in Rochester, so when the site at West Edge became available, she decided to go for it. It had everything she wanted – outdoor seating, a large bar/lounge area, excellent facilities, and a location in a growing, vibrant downtown area, and she got to be her own boss! She has no regrets about her decision.
West Edge cuisine has been described as "inventive American" by the Democrat & Chronicle. It offers special plates like tenderloin sliders and calamari, 3-course meals, light lunches, dramatic salads, or just beer and popcorn (they have an outstanding seasoned popcorn!), as well as Saturday and Sunday brunch. All food is fresh, never frozen. "We don't even have a freezer!" Among Carrie's favorites: duck breast and the seafood cocktail, which includes langostino.
The outdoor patio, the largest in Rochester, overlooks the river and accommodates over 120, and pets are allowed on the patio. Carrie calls it "Puppies on the Patio."
The fifty-foot bar, the longest one in Rochester, offers traditional cocktails, local beers including craft beers, and over 12 draughts. On Wednesdays, all draft beers are $3 – any size, no exceptions. West Edge offers corkage-free Tuesdays, where you can bring you own bottle of wine. In a special arrangement, Corn Hill Liquors offers a 15% discount on wines to take to West Edge.
West Edge is available for private parties, showers and other special events. (Corn Hill Neighbors held their Earth Day event here.) During the Corn Hill Arts Festival, they will be featuring daily specials and have extended hours, opening early for Saturday and Sunday brunch.
Carrie looks forward to a bright future in Corn Hill. She is at West Edge every day and loves meeting the neighbors and their pets. "Building community is important," Carrie says. She hopes to work with other community businesses and restaurants, and would like to see an association formed that will help support each other.
Stop in and say "hi" and enjoy the ambiance of Corn Hill's (and Rochester's) fine riverside dining!

NEW CASTLE -- Police filed charges this week against a man suspected in a violent robbery Jan. 14 at a home on Butler Avenue.
Daryl Dabney, 44, of 209 North Crawford Ave, New Castle, was charged Wednesday with aggravated assault, forgery and other offenses in the incident. New Castle police said the robbery of Joseph Hernandez took place about 9:30 p.m. Jan. 14.
Hernandez told police that he occasionally provided rides to Ramona Dabney, whom he knew only as Mona. On Jan. 14, he entered her house before taking her on an errand. While he was at the house she said that money she had hidden the previous night was missing.
That night, Mona invited Hernandez into her home and immediately accused him of stealing the money. When Hernandez tried to leave, she called for her husband, Daryl Dabney, who produced a handgun and ordered Hernandez to empty his pockets, according to a criminal complaint with District Judge Melissa Amodie.
When Hernandez refused, police said, Daryl Dabney struck him in the face with the gun, causing a visible injury to Hernandez. After being hit, Hernandez gave Daryl Dabney $40.
Police questioned Ramona Dabney, who has not been charged. She denied the robbery and said her husband never threatened Hernandez with a handgun. However, Hernandez identified Daryl Dabney from a photo suspect array, and police filed charges Wednesday.
Daryl Dabney is charged with aggravated assault, robbery, illegal firearm possession, possessing a firearm without a license, making terroristic threats, reckless endangerment, attempted simple assault, theft and harassment.

Audi is all set to try a new kind of virtual dashboard for A8.
Audi is trying the latest technology in order to make room for the newest Next Generation dashboards in its upcoming models. They are working on the evolution of cockpit technology which will give drivers an extra comfort on driving the car to destination.
This new dash concept was first shared with the concept of Audi Q6 e-Tron Quattro concept car. This technology involves the installation of virtual dashboards. These will include three displays that will handle all the controls of the car along with information processing.
One screen will be positioned in the direct vision of drier in order to make the access easier for him. It will be a thin OLED most probably 14.1 inches in size. It will offer HD 2240 x 720 pixel resolution.
The OLED will be slightly curved so that the glare is minimized for the driver. It will be controlled through the steering wheel of car as well. It will showcase features such as seed, battery, electric range, remaining range and charge status of battery too.
The virtual dashboard will accompany two more screens as well. The two screens will be placed in the canter dashboard. The upper out of these will showcase infotainment content.
It will also display navigation, and media content that can be played in car. The third screen below the second one will be used to text input and to operate the aircon as well.
All the screens will use haptic feedback. Along with that users will feel a vibration and noise while operating the screens. This will let them know if they correct function is pressed or not.
The split screen philosophy like that is in order to increase the efficiency while driving and providing the ease to drivers as well. We might see this concept in 2017 Audi A8.

Author: Ashley Elston
Contemporary YA
Expected publication: May 14th 2013 by Disney-Hyperion
Goodreads | Amazon
I really enjoyed this one. For once the mysteries were kind of hard to deconstruct and the characters weren't half as whiny as I would have imagined for anyone in their situation.
I liked the approach the author took regarding the witness protection program and how it can destroy people's lives and sometimes it doesn't seem worth to live a life like that. And especially how devastating it is for a seventeen year old girl, you can't help but root for Meg right away, hoping everything turns out fine.
Now the romance was really cute (if a little instalove for my liking). It was a bit hard to believe a guy would put himself through so much danger for a girl he just met, but Ethan has a great heart and you can tell that from the start so maybe it's not that surprising that he fell for Meg so hard.
Really action packed, it kept me on my toes most of the time, I ended up really invested in the story and thoroughly enjoyed the ride it took me on.
I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with the ending, though. I was a bit unsatisfied but also a whole lot curious. It felt like the easy way out, not cleared and kind of unfinished, and maybe to some people that would be part of this book's charm but for someone as obsessive as me it means I will wreck my brain trying to come up with theories and I already have too much going on in school.
But then I learned there was going to be a sequel, and then all was right in my world. Because I am nowhere near done with this story and this characters and I am anxiously waiting for our next meeting.
One last thing: that hog hunting scene! Awesome.

California Secretary of State Debra Bowen is in the tech news again, but I'm not at all surprised. It's an election year. And of course, as another election rolls around, the subject of e-voting rises to the surface.
Bowen is once again on the stump for open source software-based voting machines. She recently participated in an e-voting panel discussion at MIT's Emerging Technology (EmTech) Conference, where she reiterated the position that voters and election officials alike would benefit from the increased transparency open source technology brings to the table.
According to Network World, she argued:
"We're basically asking a county IT professional, who may or may not have any experience in crypto-security, to purchase a system. The software is proprietary. In most cases, the person who does the purchase has no legal right to review the software, even if they knew what they were reviewing."
Open source software would change that. Details about how the software works would be available to those who are making purchasing decisions.
On the other hand, the argument could be made, as it often is about open source software generally, that the availability of the code makes it particularly vulnerable to hacking and exploits. The point is well taken and certainly worth considering. But as an independent review of voting machines commissioned by Bowen revealed, every kind of voting machine has flaws and is subject to hacks -- even the proprietary ones. It's a matter of deciding which ones present the least risk.
In Bowen's view, open source is the best choice.

"I'm sure you've heard about the Mini Holland funding that the Council has successfully secured to make it safer and easier for cyclists and pedestrians to use our roads.
A significant amount of the funding will be used to address the huge rat-run problem that is affecting roads such as Orford Road, Grove Road and Pembroke Road. The Council is exploring different options and have decided to trial a closure of Orford Road (the retail stretch of Orford Road) to see if it is something that residents would like to see happen permanently. The trial period will be from 26th September until 13th October 2014.
The Council has organised a public meeting to be held on Monday, 15th September 7-9pm at the Asian Centre, 18A Orford Rd, London E17 9LN. This will be an opportunity for residents to learn more about the trial and the aims of the trial – to create a better environment for cyclists and pedestrians. We believe that a knock-on effect would be greater footfall in the area and this could only help to boost the local economy."

Offline Gaffes Gone Social, Another Edition
August 4, 2011 | By admin+ | No Comments
More brands are feeling the sting of consumers taking their complaints social. Former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash recently tweeted to complain about less-than-ideal conditions on a Delta flight. Posted from @Slash: "Left Serbia 8am, just arrived in LA, 10:30pm. Delays, broken toilets, u name it. Gotta love Delta."
If hard rock music wasn't your thing, you may not be familiar with Slash. But to those who grew up banging their heads in the late 80s and early 90s, he's practically a god—one with a Twitter account 831,000+ strong. In addition, the tweet sparked online news stories with titles like "Delta Dumps on Slash…" and "Slash: I Survived the Crappiest Flight Ever."
The second online reputation snag comes to us from vacation rental company Airbnb, who was forced to apologize after an owner found her property ransacked by a customer who'd rented her home through Airbnb. But it wasn't just any property owner; it was a San Francisco blogger who took her to blog after the suspect allegedly walked off with valuables, including items hidden in her closet like her passport, credit card, and grandmother's jewelry.
Of course, we can argue about why a property owner would keep valuables in a home being rented to a stranger, but this case is just one in a series of complaints against Airbnb renters. All of which led to the apology and additional damage control, which included doubling the company's customer support team and launching a 24-hour support hotline.
Social media networks give consumers a megaphone with which to voice their displeasure. Brands who invest in enterprise-quality social media monitoring have access to the real-time intelligence that pinpoints potential online reputation problems.
That's where the Social Strategy1 team comes in. We've got the tools. We've got the expertise. Find out what we will do for your brand—try our free demo.

September 29, 2017, is the final set release date for the new movie "Flatliners." The original film was released in 1990 and starred Keifer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon, Julia Roberts, Oliver Platt and William Baldwin.
It is now clear that this version will be a re-vamp of the original which will star Nina Dobrev, Ellen Page, Diego Luna, James Norton, and Kiersey Clemons.
Keifer Sutherland is also set to appear in the new film. While it is not confirmed yet, his character is rumored to be the same as in the original. He is listed to play 'Nelson, ' and it was hinted that his character would be that of a senior doctor.
The film is set to have the same basic story line as the original. It all revolves around a group of medical students who take each other to the brink of death and then pull out at last moment.
The only problem the things take a sinister turn and something comes back with them, something that is after them because playing with death is a risky game.
Hopefully, Keifer doesn't pull any antics on the set. He is notorious for being hard to deal with due to his excessive drinking. In October of 2016, he publicly announced that he would not give up alcohol but it is a well-known fact that he does not fare well while drinking.
Freddie Prinze Jr. once made an open statement about how unprofessional Keifer was on the set of '24,' and went as far as to state that everyone who has worked with him in the past feels the same way. Hopefully Keifer can pull it together, and it would be nice to see him make a comeback.
"Flatliners" is not a movie to miss. The original was very entertaining and judging by the cast for this new version it is sure to be a hit as well.

Tom Waits on Tom Waits is a book that gathers together interviews and encounters with the legendary musician. Described by the Daily Telegraph as 'the greatest entertainer on Planet Earth' we thought a book on the man deserved a bold cover. We created a striking typographic cover with a triptych of Toms.

I grew up watching blood and guts films and close by individuals with tattoos, given who my father was companions with and my interests in music Best Face Masks The way that it's essentially representation yet on your body was something entirely simple for me to get into. [How I pick my tattoos] isn't something I can without much of a stretch eloquent—it's originating from a more throaty level. On the off chance that I see something and it's excellent, and I feel it instinctively, at that point that to me is something that motivates me. Kid's shows, visual references from either Instagram or a film or a historical center, perusing dream or unusual fiction books, or even traditional writing—I compartmentalize everything and I store it Best Face Masks [Currently], I need a Medusa head, however not a wretched Medusa, an attractive Medusa.
On Having Companions Assemble Motivation for You
I had a companion go into a tat shop that had non specific blaze on the divider—they all sort of resembled the Eddie beast buddy from Press Lady [Eddie the Head] or an abnormal composite of a group of metal '80s and '90s creature folks. Anyway, it was on a divider in this shop in Silver Lake my companion was in and he adored it, so he sent it to me. What's more, I clearly cherished it, as well, so for my 28th birthday celebration, I got it.
On Picking Your Ink Shading
A few people have a harder time taking in shading, yet my skin takes shading admirably Best Face Masks it remains extremely dynamic. Now and again, I lament shading since highly contrasting looks extremely cool, but since I consider tattoos to be a greater amount of delineations, I need the whole thing. On the off chance that I can complement or increase the tattoo, for what reason not? Shading, to me, is critical to the trustworthiness of the picture.
On the Ideal Position
I was never similar to, "I'm going to be a tatted-up young lady and separate myself from the pack." It was more similar to, "Gracious, I like that, I will get it, fuck it!" And after that, they simply gathered sooner or later—so situation turned into an astound. It's tied in with finding the privilege fragile adjust. In this way, I micromanage. Some of the time, it's simply experimentation Best Face Masks you can see how the tattoo will look and cooperate with the other [designs] by putting the stencil the craftsman first makes for you in better places on your body. I'll regularly carry a companion with me so I have their information, as well.
On Knowing When to Take a Break
huge astonishing tattoo craftsman okay anime, up finished Instagram and inquired as to whether he would have been in L.A. at any point in the near future and he replied, most likely with assistance from an interpreter, "Truly, I'll be at this tat tradition in Long Shoreline in a couple of months." Along these lines, I sent him a [reference] picture and a store by means of PayPal and met him there—it was being hung on this journey transport, The Ruler Mary, on the ground floor, so essentially submerged. It felt like he was staying blades in my back for six hours Best Face Masks I needed to [stop] consistently or two. I was so foggy and disoriented, I resembled a psychological patient strolling around that ship. That was three years prior, and I unquestionably enjoyed a little reprieve from tattoos after that. Be that as it may, you in the long run overlook Best Face Masks

Business owners who are renovating or relocating their business can be put in a real bind when delays occur. Renting a temporary mobile office space is an ideal way to keep the office functioning at its highest capacity. Mobile office spaces are extremely convenient. They provide you with the space you need and can be easily returned once they are no longer needed.
Mobile offices can be rented in many different sizes and placed almost anywhere. A temporary mobile office space can be placed on the existing site of the business or on the property where the business is going to be built. Either way, it allows the business owner to maintain operations during the entire process without having to worry about closing their doors while the move is taking place.
If a company is moving to a new location and explores the option of using a temporary mobile office space, the owner may need to employ the use of mobile storage containers to store important records or excess office furniture that may not fit in the mobile office. Storage containers can be reserved in any size and stored on the property so the owner has easy access to it whenever he or she is ready to move it into the new facility.
Mobile storage containers and the use of a temporary mobile office space can save a business owner both time and money when it comes to keeping their business going during a move. Storage containers are ideal for storing excess materials onsite so they are close at hand and easy to find if something is needed in a hurry. When it comes to keeping a business in top form, even during a move, a temporary mobile office space may be the answer.

Arlene Foster must keep Sinn Fein onside while keeping DUP united
As I write it seems a racing certainty that Arlene Foster will be appointed leader of the DUP this evening, the first female unionist leader from Northern Ireland or Ireland.
Home › Opinion › Columnists › Archive › Liam Clarke
As I write it seems a racing certainty that Arlene Foster will be appointed leader of the DUP this evening, the first female unionist leader from Northern Ireland or Ireland.
Can't live with him, can't live without him, used to be an old joke about husbands (and wives, too) that could apply to John Larkin. The DUP and Sinn Fein need him as Attorney General, and have just reappointed him until May 2019.
New politics demands new parties. They may not take over, but they could at least lighten the rather stodgy orange/green mix that makes decision-making so slow and unreliable at Stormont.
The nearest thing I encountered to comprehensive education was in the 1960s at Dundalk Grammar School, which accepted all-comers.
Reading this study is a little like opening a medical report for someone with a long-running, wasting illness.
Let's be honest, there is justification for bombing Daesh/Isis in Syria. Yet it could still end up badly - like most previous interventions in the Muslim world.
We often hear that doctors risk life imprisonment if they carry out abortions in Northern Ireland. What we hear less often is that no doctor has been convicted, never mind jailed, for carrying out a termination within the health service. The courts invariably accept the doctors' view that the potential mother's health would suffer too badly if the pregnancy went full term.
When the Irish Times asked Martin McGuinness about the murder of Frank Hegarty, he told the paper that "the reality is that the past is a very, very dark place for everybody'". He didn't mean just for himself; he denied all wrongdoing and sent out a hint that others could be embarrassed if the full story came out.
Has Sinn Fein finally become a normal political party? And has Syriza paved the way for them? Many members will resent the implication. The party still thinks of itself as bringing about a revolution, although by peaceful means, that will totally transform society fairly soon.
The DUP conference was, as usual, tightly stage-managed. There were no debates or questions from the floor. Yet this is a party which knows its members very well.
It is easy to forget that besides Paris, a city many of us know and like as a city of culture, Russia has been attacked by Daesh/Isis. The group is a threat to the whole world and is seeking to impose its ideology on all countries, starting with the Middle East.
The inability to agree on the past leaves a big gap in the "fresh start" document that has left victims on all sides feeling gutted.
It will take time to find the devils in the detail but, at first glance, this is a better deal than anyone predicted.
Dr Alasdair McDonnell should not have tried to hang on as SDLP leader after he retained his South Belfast Westminster seat.
There are growing rumours in SDLP ranks that the party may "cling to nurse for fear of something worse" when they elect their leader on Saturday.
Yesterday was Armistice Day and I wore a poppy. That is something I haven't done normally since childhood, though I have contributed and also worn one when attending a remembrance service.
The chances are Stormont will trundle towards a deal over the next week or so - but will it last? And will it be comprehensive?
Is Peter Robinson the new David Trimble? Or is he the new Ian Paisley? The Trimble analogy - a leader under internal pressure for compromising - attracts some DUP members and former members.
In the white heat of negotiations, we hope, the parties should not forget to reform or abolish petitions of concern. That is the first step towards normal government.
All the breast-beating by our politicians won't get away from the fact that Michelin yesterday announced that it was restructuring its European operations and we lost out.
When you live on £3.8m of inherited wealth and are a Cabinet minister, like George Osborne, the Chancellor, it is easy to forget, or caricature, how the other half lives. It is also easy to misjudge what is possible politically.
Shambles Corner is Edward Toman's perceptive comic novel about sectarianism in Armagh. In it, a group of born-again Protestants of strong unionist views are entertained by a clergyman, demonstrating how Mass was said to show them the errors of Rome.
Mike Nesbitt has begun to answer the question: what is the UUP for?
How do paramilitary campaigns end? One way is by winning. Then members get medals and positions in politics, policing, the Army and Civil Service. Others get pensions. That is what happened in the Free State after independence and in South Africa after the fall of Apartheid.
Memo to David Cameron. Dear Prime Minister,
Theresa Villiers admitted in the Commons that "in some ways" the report of the paramilitary assessment panel "makes depressing reading", but it does seem to have opened a way forward.
"How long do you stay an ex-prisoner?"
Jeremy Corbyn has certainly flooded Labour with new members and ignited a debate since he took over as the party leader.
Sometime soon, within the next fortnight, we are likely to see Senator Gary Hart back to try and give us the final push to solvency and self-government. Surely this is a good thing.
The DUP owes it to Simon Hamilton to get him back to work next week. It is also in the best interests of the health service and of the party. It is the best course in a difficult situation.
Liam Clarke talks to the new Northern Ireland Shadow Secretary of State about his role, his hopes for progress at Stormont and his relationship with the Labour leader.
After yesterday's accusations Peter Robinson is determined to go to the Stormont inquiry into the sale of Nama assets in Northern Ireland.
The conference season continues tomorrow with Labour. It is the first outing for King Jeremy with the party faithful since his landslide victory and subsequent first-count coronation.
Many people like me leave instructions for their organs to be used by others after death. Others agree to body parts or the whole body being used for medical research.
It almost seemed as if Jeremy Corbyn didn't realise you had to hit the ground running if you got to be leader of the Opposition. He expected to refuse all interviews and then find no journalists waiting for him ("bothering me") as he left the Commons for his taxi.
Is Bobby Storey hoping for the role of Bert the chimney sweep in the remake of Mary Poppins? The thought arose when Big Bob, normally a man to be mentioned in hushed tones, went all wide-eyed to describe how the IRA had turned from a caterpillar into a butterfly and that was it.
Seeing tens of thousands of Syrian refugees being welcomed off the train in Germany was as much of a reality check as the pathetic sight of Ayman Kurdi's young body washed up on the beach at Bodrum.
The Queen has done a good job, but that shouldn't blind us to the fact that the monarchy is now an institution out of its time, no longer necessary.
While the parties lumber squabbling toward talks, we know the odds, but we don't know the truth. The odds are that, if everyone is as good as their word, Stormont will collapse; yet there are no real excuses for failure.
Back in 1938, there was a panic about stateless aliens leaving their own countries to enter the UK - much like now.
DUP leader Peter Robinson last night warned that if evidence proves that the IRA was involved in the McGuigan murder, he will move to exclude Sinn Fein from the Executive.
Is there a chance of a deal next month that will keep Stormont on the road until next year's election? Logic suggests not - one or more players would have to turn turtle - but there have been some straws in the wind, and things are seldom entirely logical here.
Listening to Stephen Nolan's interview with 'Paul' yesterday brought home to me how much attitudes are changing to LGBT rights and how that could eventually drive greater tolerance in society generally.
Was Gregory Campbell right to accuse Martin McGuinness of "selling out" hardline republicans by failing to deliver what they wanted? Do we put too high a premium on consistency?
The figures are all but incomprehensible. Greece is edging towards another €85bn (£60bn) three-year agreement to keep it in the eurozone and avert bankruptcy.
He sees you taking a picture and wants to give you a good one," Sammy Wilson once told me when Ian Paisley shook his fist at me every time I pointed a camera at him during a protest.
I don't compare notes with Nelson McCausland before we write our columns - and it shows. Nevertheless, this week I can agree with some of the comments he made on the radio backing the Parades Commission determination on Sunday's anti-internment demonstration in Belfast city centre.
The Greeks, ancient as well as modern, had words for the sort of situation some politicians are now blundering into. They called it a Cadmean victory.
There is something toe-curling about this rush to America. First of all, the welcome wasn't exactly overwhelming. Martin McGuinness and Theresa Villiers met Drew O'Brien, an important State Department official, but he is in Ireland often enough. There was also talk of someone from the Vice-President's office going along, too. What there wasn't was the "money shot" of Obama shaking hands with our heroes. Not him, not Joe Biden, no pictures at all so far.
It is generally assumed that, overall, direct rule would be a better option for unionism than nationalism, but does that really stack up?

If you are looking for safeguarding information please click here.
At Wilson Stuart our main priority is our students safety, not only physically, but online too. E-Safety is a topic which is reviewed at least once a year, with some classes carrying out a sequence of lessons which allow them to understand the dangers and the new potential risks surrounding online activity. Within school we have a CEOP trained Ambassador, Mr Perrens who is the Computing Coordinator, so he is able to deal with any potential problems and is able to give advice to students, staff and also parents. Once a year parents are invited to a parents workshop which allow parents to get an insight of the potential dangers, how to stay safe and useful websites which will allow them to implement a safe environment not only at school but at home.
Visit the National Crime Agencies Safety Centre to find out more about being safe online and get help.

There is nothing wrong with traditional pizza toppings. We're big fans of the traditional combinations ourselves! The combination of red sauce, pepperoni, and mozzarella cheese is a classic for a reason: it's delicious. That flavor combination isn't going anywhere anytime soon, and you'll find it on our pizza in Santa Fe, too. You'll find other classic pizzas in Santa Fe on our menu, including the Margarita pizza, the Meat Treat and the Veggie. They are all incredible and packed with traditional pizza toppings. But they are not the only way to create a delicious pizza. At Upper Crust we have some pizza toppings that might seem a little unusual, but give them a chance! You might find that they become your new favorite pizza flavors.
In the mood to shake up your usual pizza toppings? Here are some that we recommend you try.
Try These Toppings for Big Pizza Flavor
Feta is a crumbly, salty, and slightly bitter cheese that's absolutely delicious. It's a great alternative to mozzarella cheese, or you can combine it with other cheese for the ultimate tasty blend. You'll find feta on a lot of Greek dishes as well as many salads, where it pairs well with flavors like kalamata olives and spinach to bring a little zest to the dish. The cheese is made with sheep or goats milk, which is part of the reason is has such a bold and tangy flavor when compared to a cow's milk cheese, such a mild cheddar. We use it on our Grecian Gourmet pizza, which has feta, kalamata olives, bell peppers, mushrooms, and fresh garlic. If you are looking for a pizza with a burst of flavor that doesn't feel like it's weighing you down, this is the one for you.
Not all pizzas have to include red sauce! In fact, some of the best pizzas in the world shy away from the red and go for the green. Pesto is a sauce primarily made with basil and olive oil along with a mixture of pine nuts, grated cheese, and garlic. It seems like every chef has a different recipe for this green treat, but it's hard to find a pesto that isn't delicious. Pesto originated in Genoa, Italy in the 1500's. Thanks to it's Italian origin, it's no wonder that it's a great way to start a pizza! It's not spicy, but it packs a lot of flavors. We use pesto on our Sunny Chicken Pesto pizza. This one has pesto, fresh marinated chicken breast, and sun dried tomatoes. It's delicious!
Chorizo is a spicy sausage that's used in a lot of Mexican and Spanish cooking. If you love meat on your pizza, you need to try it with chorizo. The pork sausage is packed with heat and spices that will make any pizza a little bolder. It's tasty enough to stand on its own, though, so don't feel like it has to be a part of your meat-heavy pizza. Chorizo gets a lot of it's flavor from the smoked paprika and salt that's used in its creation. We use this delicious pork sausage on our New Mex pizza. This one has Tortilla Flats red chile, shredded cheddar, onion, tomato, and chorizo. It's a fusion of Italian pizza and Mexican flavors that you and your whole family are sure to love!

In what will be the third time in four months, the national spotlight will be on Chatham-Kent thanks to a large-scale event.
Chicago Jersey Bears Jersey Butkus Bears Chicago Butkus Butkus Bears Chicago Municipal council received an update Monday concerning the Rogers Hometown Hockey Tour, which will be making a stop in the community the weekend of Dec. 15-16.
On the evening of Dec. 16, there will be a live NHL broadcast, at a festival site still to be determined, between the Winnipeg Jets and Tampa Bay Lightning.
According to a staff report, there is an average national viewership of 700,000, with an average of 1.8 million tuning in for the Hockey Night in Canada live hit on the Saturday.
Chatham-Kent is coming off of two recent large-scale events: the International Plowing Match & Rural Expo held in Pain Court, followed by the Princess Auto Elite 10 curling event in Chatham.
"I think we're very fortunate where we live," said North Kent Coun. Leon Leclair, who also gave a rundown of the IPM during non-agenda business. "We have a lot to offer."
Council also approved authorization to spend up to $30,000 for costs associated with the delivery and promotion of the Rogers Hometown Hockey event, to be funded from the community human services operating budget.
In 2014, Rogers created the event, which is a touring festival stopping at a different Canadian community each weekend of the NHL regular season.
The event is intended to be a local celebration of the game culminating in a live national broadcast during an NHL game on Sportsnet.
The festival is open to the public and features numerous activities, entertainment, giveaways and appearances by NHL alumni. Average weekend attendance is over 10,000 people.
"It's completely free with lots of family-focused activities," said Ian Clark, Chatham-Kent's business systems and planning analyst, who gave Monday's presentation.
According to the report, the preference for the festival site is Chatham's downtown core. The parking lots of Memorial Arena and the John D. Bradley Convention Centre have been identified as backup locations.
"We know that King Street itself is simply too narrow," Clark said. "However, there are some other downtown configurations that still can be explored."
Rogers is responsible for the majority of costs associated with the event, including asset delivery and construction for stages and tents, entertainment, festival labour, giveaways, hotel rooms, broadcasting and national marketing.
Road closures will be required from the Thursday until the Monday morning, with Rogers beginning the tear-down process immediately following the Sunday night game.
"Rogers does require significant space to install their many festival assets," Clark said.
Chatham Coun. Doug Sulman said the municipality has received much positive exposure as of late.
Panthers Panthers Nfl Nfl Carolina Carolina Jerseys Panthers Carolina Nfl "This is another great opportunity for us to showcase Chatham-Kent," he said.
Mayor Randy Hope said the event should also feature the official renaming of the arena in Dresden after the late Ken Houston, who played in the NHL in the 1970s and 1980s.
Clark added that Rogers was interested in incorporating that aspect into the weekend.

It is quite obvious that there is a huge rift between developed and developing countries in the world in terms of economy, education, defence, etc. Similarly, there is a distinct barrier between native English teachers (NESTs) and non-native English teachers (NNESTs). Without a Cambridge DELTA or TESOL certificate, one can hardly study ,migrate or teach in an English speaking country.
As English is the international language of communication, the pride of native English teachers significantly grows with more need and demand across the globe. To be honest, Cambridge English language learning and teaching courses are applied in abundance to ascertain the teaching credibility. But the sad truth is that, though many people possess a PHD in English with national teaching certificates in their own country, they are not eligible to teach internationally as they happen to be non-native teachers. Even if one obtains a degree and CELTA, TESOL or other recognised teaching qualification, an international job is not assured. Perhaps an MA degree in Cambridge may help to procure a better job. There is nothing wrong in taking International teaching and training accreditations, but with the void in national accreditations, it becomes improbable. Every day of one's continuous professional development becomes irrelevant and meaningless.
Personally, I would suggest that there is no difference between NEST and NNEST teachers, as teaching any language is just the desire for updating and promoting the teaching and learning skills in that language. For instance, a native English teacher may be not good at teaching grammar whereas a non-native teacher may excel in teaching this. Moreover, English medium schools, colleges and universities are widespread worldwide and English language teachers are doing great jobs even without a CELTA or TESOL qualification.
Teachers who possess an inherent quality with passion and desire towards teaching grow their skills and update in their continuing professional development. All teachers do not cherish this attitude to grow professionally. I would conclude by stating that there is little use if there ever exists a disparity between the NEST and NNEST in future.

Ephesians 4-6
View Full Reading Plan
The Church adopted the term order from its use in the Roman Empire, where it referred to a governing group. In the Sacrament of Holy Orders, there are three degrees or "orders": bishop, priest, and deacon. The rite of ordination is the sacramental act that makes this possible. Ordination "confers a gift of the Holy Spirit that permits the exercise of a 'sacred power' . . . which can come only from Christ himself through the Church" (CCC, no. 1538).
The first priest figure to appear in the Old Testament is Melchizedek, who offered a sacrifice of bread and wine on behalf of the patriarch Abraham (Gn 14:18-20). He symbolized the permanence of priesthood: "Like Melchizedek you are a priest forever" (Ps 110:4). God also chose Aaron and his sons to be priests (Ex 28:1ff.) and designated the tribe of Levi for liturgical service. They acted on behalf of the people and offered gifts and sacrifices for sins. They proclaimed God's Word and led people to communion with him through sacrifices and prayers.
But these priests were unable to provide the fullness of salvation or definitive sanctification for the people. Only the sacrifice of Jesus Christ could bring this about. The priesthood of Melchizedek, Aaron, and the Levites prefigured the priesthood of Christ, as is seen in consecration prayers for the ordination of bishops, priests, and deacons.
The priesthood of the Old Testament found its perfect fulfillment in the priesthood of Jesus Christ, who is the one mediator between God and us. Jesus' sacrifice of himself on the Cross was a priestly act of perfect self-offering accepted by the Father and culminating in his Resurrection from the dead so that, as Risen Lord and High Priest, he continues to offer salvation to all.
By Baptism, all the members of the Church share in Christ's holy priesthood. It is called "the common priesthood of the faithful" because the entire Church shares in it. To build up this priesthood, Christ gives to his Church the ordained ministries of bishops, priests, and deacons through the Sacrament of Holy Orders. Only the ordained bishop and priest may be ministers of Confirmation (or Chrismation), the Eucharist, the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation, and the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. Only bishops may ordain deacons, priests, and other bishops. "The ministerial priesthood differs in essence from the common priesthood of the faithful because it confers a sacred power for the service of the faithful. The ordained ministers exercise their service for the People of God by teaching (munus docendi), divine worship (munus liturgicum) and pastoral governance (munus regendi)" (CCC, no. 1592). Deacons in the Latin Church can baptize and witness the Sacrament of Marriage, as do priests and bishops.
The ordained bishop and priest serve the Church in the person of Christ as head of the Body. "Through the ordained ministry, especially that of bishops and priests, the presence of Christ as head of the Church is made visible in the midst of the community of believers" (CCC, no. 1549). The Sacrament does not preserve the ordained from weakness and sin, but the Holy Spirit guarantees that the minister's sin does not impede the effectiveness of the Sacrament and its graces. The ordained are called to a holiness of life and an attitude of humility that conforms them to Christ whose priesthood they share. The priest acts not only in the person of Christ, the Head of the Church, but also in the name of the Church when presenting to God the prayer of the Church, especially in the Eucharist.
-CCC, no. 1554, citing St. Ignatius of Antioch, Ad. Trail. 3, 1
By ordination to the episcopacy, bishops receive the fullness of the Sacrament of Holy Orders and become successors of the Apostles. Through this Sacrament, a bishop belongs to the college of bishops and serves as the visible head or pastor of the local church entrusted to his care. As a college, the bishops have care and concern for the apostolic mission of all the churches in union with and under the authority of the Pope-the head of the college of bishops, the Bishop of Rome, and the successor of St. Peter.
"There are two degrees of ministerial participation in the priesthood of Christ: the episcopacy and the presbyterate. The diaconate is intended to help and serve them" (CCC, no. 1554). The three degrees of the Sacrament of Holy Orders-bishop, priest, and deacon-are all conferred by ordination.
Deacons receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders from a bishop and are ordained not to the ministerial priesthood but to the ministry of service. Through ordination the deacon is conformed to Christ, who came to serve, not to be served. In the Latin Church, deacons may baptize, proclaim the Gospel, preach the homily, assist the bishop or priest in -the celebration of the Eucharist, assist at and bless marriages, and preside at funerals. They dedicate themselves to charitable endeavors, which was their ministerial role in New Testament times.
Whether they are involved in the Church's liturgical or pastoral life or in her social and charitable endeavors, deacons are "strengthened by the imposition of hands that has come down from the apostles. They would be more closely bound to the altar and their ministry would be made more fruitful through the sacramental grace of the diaconate" (AG, 16, no. 6).
Since the Second Vatican Council, the Latin Church has restored the diaconate as a permanent rank of the hierarchy. Now, diaconate as a permanent office may also be conferred on both married and unmarried men. The Eastern Churches have always retained it. Seminarians preparing for priesthood have always been ordained to the diaconate before ordination to priesthood.
-CCC, no. 1573
Although after the Ascension, Mary occupied a privileged place in the little circle gathered in the Upper Room, she was not called to enter the college of the Twelve at the time of the election of Matthias. The Apostles continued Christ's practice and so, too, did their successors through the centuries.
The Church has the power to determine the way in which the Sacraments are to be celebrated, but she has no ability to change the essential aspects established by the Lord Jesus. Sacramental signs are natural, but they also carry a divine meaning. Just as the Eucharist is not only a communal meal, but also makes present the saving sacrifice of the Lord Jesus, so too ministerial priesthood is more than pastoral service: it ensures the continuity of the ministry Christ entrusted to the Apostles.
The priesthood has a sacramental nature. The priest is a sign of what is happening. Sacramental signs represent what they signify by a natural resemblance. This resemblance is as true for persons as for things. When the priest acts in the person of Christ, he takes on the role of Christ, to the point of being his representative. He is a sign of what is happening and must be a sign that is recognizable, which the faithful can see with ease.
An image used to explain this reality talks of a priest as an "icon" of Christ. An icon is a religious painting that is considered to make present the mystery of salvation or the saint it depicts. To say a priest is an icon of Christ means, then, that a priest is not just a reminder or image of Christ but is also a real means by which a person can be touched by Christ. Because Christ is a man, it is fitting that a priest as the icon of Christ should also be a man.
Another reason why the Church understands that ordination is reserved to men is the recognition of the priest's responsibility to reflect Christ as the Bridegroom of the Church. This image and understanding can be reflected most truly only when the priest is a man.
The teaching that priestly ordination is to be reserved to men alone has been preserved by the constant and universal Tradition of the Church (d. Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Declaration on the Admission of Women to the Ministerial Priesthood [Inter Insigniores], nos. 9-10, 13, 20-21, 26-27). Pope John Paul II reaffirmed this teaching in these words: "In order that all doubt may be removed, I declare that the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women and that this judgment is to be definitively held by all the Church's faithful" (On Reserving Priestly Ordination to Men Alone [Ordinatio Sacerdotalis], no. 4). In that same document, the Pope underlined the incomparable achievements of women for the benefit of the People of God:
When God chooses men to share in the ordained priesthood of Christ, he moves and helps them by his grace. At the same time, he entrusts the bishop with the task of calling suitable and approved candidates and of consecrating them by a special seal of the Holy Spirit to the ministry of God and of the Church (Admission to Candidacy for Priesthood, 5).
All candidates for ordination in the Latin Church-with the exception of permanent deacons, who can be married at the time of their ordination-are chosen from among those who intend to remain celibate "for the sake of the kingdom of heaven" (Mt 19:12). Their celibacy is a sign of their intention to imitate Christ's own celibacy and to serve God in the Church's married clergy of other Christian churches who convert to Catholicism have been admitted to Holy Orders. In the Eastern Churches, only the bishops must be celibate. Priests and deacons may be married; however, in the United States, priests in Eastern Churches are normally celibate.
A bishop is given the grace to teach in the name of Christ; to sanctify the Church through the celebration of the Sacraments; to guide, govern, and defend the Church; and to be a sign of the unity of the Church.
A deacon in the Latin Church is ordained to proclaim the Gospel and preach, to baptize, to assist the bishop or priest in the celebration of the Eucharist, to assist at and bless marriages, to preside at funerals, and to serve the community through works of charity.
- Through Holy Orders there is another participation in Christ's priesthood, the ministerial priesthood of bishop and priest. This differs in essence from the common priesthood because it confers a sacred power for the service of the faithful.
- The ordained ministry occurs in three degrees or orders: bishop, priest, and deacon. These ministries are essential for the life of the Church.
- Bishops receive the fullness of the Sacrament of Holy Orders. They are the chief teachers, sanctifiers, and shepherds in their dioceses.
- "Priests are united with the bishops in priestly dignity and at the same time depend on them in the exercise of their pastoral functions; they are called to be the bishops' prudent co-workers" (CCC, no. 1595). With the bishop, priests form a presbyteral (priestly) community and assume with him the pastoral mission for a particular parish.
- Deacons receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders, but not the ministerial priesthood. Through ordination, the deacon is conformed to Christ, who came to serve, not to be served. Deacons in the Latin Church may baptize, read the Gospel, preach the homily, assist the bishop or priest in the celebration of the Eucharist, assist at and bless marriages, and preside at funerals. They dedicate themselves to charitable endeavors, which was their ministerial role in New Testament times.
- "The essential rite of the Sacrament of Holy Orders for all three degrees consists in the bishop's imposition of hands on the head of the ordinand [man to be ordained] and in the bishop's specific consecratory prayer" (CCC, no. 1573). Ordination confers a permanent sacramental character.
- Only men may be ordained.
- Normally in the Western Church, ordination to priesthood is conferred only on those men who freely promise lifelong celibacy.
- Only bishops may confer the Sacrament of Holy Orders in the three degrees.

I want to create and configure a jME3 Application
How do I start writing a preconfigured jME game?
Write a Java class that extends com.jme3.app.SimpleApplication.
Learn more: Hello SimpleApplication, TestAppStateLifeCycle.
How do I change the background color?
Can I customize the SimpleApplication class?
Yes! Actually, you MUST customize it! For your own games, you always create a custom base class that extends com.jme3.app.SimpleApplication class. From now on it's no longer a "simple application – it's now your game. Configure your application settings, implement methods, and customize away!
Learn more: SimpleApplication, AppSettings.
How can I switch between screens or states?
You should break down your application logic into components by spreading it out over individual AppStates. AppStates can be attached to and detached from the game. AppStates have access to all objects (rootNode, PhysicsSpace, inputManager, etc) and methods in your main application. So each AppState can bring its own subset of input handlers, GUI nodes, spatial nodes, and even its own subset of game mechanics in the update() loop.
Learn more: Application States.
How do I pause/unpause a game?
You split up your application into several AppStates and implement the setEnabled() methods for each state. Then you create, for example, a GameRunningAppState and a GamePausedAppState. GamePausedAppState's job is to attach all your AppStates that contain the logic and GUI of the pause screen, and to detach all the AppStates that contain logic and GUI of the running game. GameRunningAppState does the opposite. By attaching one or the other to the game, you switch between the paused and unpaused states.
Learn more: Application States.
How do I disable logger output to the console?
During development, you can switch the severity level of the default logger to no longer print FINE warnings, but only WARNINGs.
For the release, switch the severity level of the default logger to print only SEVERE errors.

What is java.lang.LinkageError: Version mismatch?
This rare exception shows a message similar to the following:
Exception in thread "LWJGL Renderer Thread java.lang.LinkageError: Version mismatch: jar version is (number), native library version is (another number). jME3 needs native libraries (.dll, .jnilib, lib*.so files) to run LWJGL and jBullet. The correct versions of these libraries are included when you install the SDK or download the binaries. However there are circumstances where jME3 cannot determine which copy of the native library it should use:
If you install another application that needs a different version of a native library, and this app globally installs its version over jME3's.
If an old copy of a native library is in your project directory, your home directory, or Java library path, or in the classpath.
If you permanently linked an old copy in your IDE's settings.
Java then assumes you prefer these native libraries over the bundled ones, and your jME3 application ends up running with the wrong version.
To fix this, search for .dll (Windows), .jnilib (Mac), and .so (Linux) files for jBullet and LWJGL on your harddrive and in your path and IDE settings, and verify they don't interfere. (If you have other jME versions installed and linked somehow, the outdated natives may also be in a lwjgl.jar or jbullet.jar file!)
I want to load my scene
How do I make objects appear / disappear in the 3D scene?
To make a spatial appear in the scene, you attach it to the rootNode (or to a node that is attached to the rootnode). To remove a spatial, you detach it from its parent node.
rootNode.attachChild(spatial); // appear in scene
rootNode.detachChild(spatial); // remove from scene
Learn more: The Scene Graph, Hello Node, Hello Asset, Spatial, com.jme3.scene.Node and com.jme3.scene.Geometry.
Why do I get AssetNotFoundException when loading X ?
First check whether the file path of the asset is correct. By default it is relative to your project's assets directory:
// To load .../jMonkeyProjects/MyGame/assets/Models/Ninja/Ninja.j3o
Spatial ninja = assetManager.loadModel("Models/Ninja/Ninja.j3o");
If you are not using the default
assets directory, verify that you have registered a locator to the AssetManager. Different Locator types are available.
this.assetManager.registerLocator("assets/", FileLocator.class); // default
this.assetManager.registerLocator("c:/jme3User/JMEisSoCool/myAwesomeFolder/", FileLocator.class);
this.assetManager.registerLocator("town.zip", ZipLocator.class);
Note that you should not register every single folder containing a texture as the assetmanager will not be able to discern between images with the same name anymore.

How do I Create 3-D models, textures, sounds?
Follow our best practices for the multi-media asset pipeline.
You create 3-D models in a 3-D mesh editor, for example Blender, and export it in Ogre Mesh XML (animated objects, scenes) or Wavefront OBJ format (static objects, scenes). You create textures in a graphic editor, for example Gimp, and export them as PNG or JPG. You create sounds in an audio editor, for example, Audacity, and export them as WAVE or OGG.
How do I load a 3-D model into the scene?
Use the jMonkeyEngine SDK to convert models from Ogre XML or Wavefront OBJ formats to .j3o binary format. Load the .j3o file using the AssetManager.
// To load .../jMonkeyProjects/MyGame/assets/Models/Ninja/Ninja.j3o
Spatial ninja = assetManager.loadModel("Models/Ninja/Ninja.j3o");

How do initialize the scene?
Use the simpleInitApp() method in SimpleApplication (or initApp() in Application).
Learn more: Hello SimpleApplication, SimpleApplication.java.
I want to transform objects in the scene
How do I move or turn or resize a spatial?
To move or turn or resize a spatial you use transformations. You can concatenate transformations (e.g. perform rotations around several axes in one step using a Quaternion with
slerp() or a com.jme3.math.Transform with interpolateTransforms().
spatial.setLocalTranslation(1,-3,2.5f); spatial.rotate(0,3.14f,0); spatial.scale(2,2,2);
Learn more: Hello Node, Spatial, math_for_dummies.
How do I make a spatial move by itself?
Change the geometry's translation (position) live in the update loop using setLocalTranslation() for non-physical and applyForce() or setWalkDirection() for physical objects. You can also define and remote-control a spatial's motion using Cinematics, e.g. to record cutscenes, or to implement mobile platforms, elevators, airships, etc.

How do I make procedural or custom shapes?
You can programmatically create com.jme3.scene.Mesh'es.

I want to change the surface of objects in the scene
Why is my UV wrapping / texture appearance all wrong?
The most likely reason is the flipping of textures. You may be using the following default method:
material.setTexture("ColorMap", assetManager.loadTexture("myTexture.jpg"));
You can set the boolean value in the constructor of TextureKey to flipped or not flipped. Toggle the boolean to see if it fixes your UV wrapping/texture problem:
material.setTexture("ColorMap", this.assetManager.loadTexture(new TextureKey("myTexture.jpg", false)));
How do I scale, mirror, or wrap a texture?
You cannot scale a texture, but you scale the texture coordinates of the mesh the texture is applied to:
mesh.scaleTextureCoordinates(new Vector2f(2,2));
You can choose among various
com.jme3.texture.Texture.WrapModes for individual texture maps of a material: BorderClamp, EdgeClamp, Clamp; MirrorBorderClamp, MirrorEdgeClamp, MirrorClamp; Repeat, MirroredRepeat.
How do I change color or shininess of an material?
Use the AssetManager to load Materials, and change material settings.
Learn more: Hello Material, How To Use Materials, Materials Overview, Asset Manager.
Code sample: TestNormalMapping.java, TestSphere.java.
How do I make a surface wood, stone, metal, etc?
Create Textures as image files. Use the AssetManager to load a Material and use texture mapping for improved looks.
Why are materials too bright, too dark, or flickering?
If you use a lit material (based on Lighting.j3md) then you must attach a light source to the rootNode, otherwise you see nothing. If you use lit material colors, make sure you have specified an Ambient color (can be the same as the Diffuse color) if you use an AmbientLight. If you see objects, but they are gray or too dark, set the light color to white, or make it brighter (you can multiply the color value with a scalar), or add a global white light source (AmbientLight). Similarly, if everything is too white, tune down the lights. If materials flicker under a directional light, change the light direction vector. Change the background color (which is independent of light sources) to get a better contrast while debugging a light problem.
How do I make geometries cast a shadow?
Use com.jme3.shadow.BasicShadowRenderer together with com.jme3.light.DirectionalLight, and setShadowMode().
Learn more: Light and Shadow
Code sample: TestEverything.java, TestShadow.java
How do I make materials transparent?
Assign a texture with an alpha channel to a Material and set the Material's blend mode to alpha. Use this to create transparent or translucent materials such as glass, window panes, water, tree leaves, etc.
Learn more: Hello Material, How To Use Materials,
How do I force or disable culling?
While debugging custom meshes, you can switch the
com.jme3.material.RenderState.FaceCullMode off to see the inside and outside of the mesh.
You can also deactivate the
com.jme3.scene.Spatial.CullHint of a whole spatial to force jme to calculate it even if it is behind the camera and outside of view.

I want to control the camera
The default camera
cam is an instance of the
Camera class.
Learn more: com.jme3.renderer.Camera
How do I keep the camera from moving?
SimpleApplication activates
flyCam (an instance of
FlyByCamera) by default.
flyCam causes the camera to move with the mouse and the WASD keys. You can disable flyCam as follows:
How do I switch between third-person and first-person view ?

Actions, Interactions, Physics
How do I implement game logic / game mechanics?
Use Controls to define the behaviour of types of Spatials. Use Application States to implement global behaviour, to group subsets of input handlers or GUI screens, etc. Use the
simpleUpdate() and
update() loops for tests and interactions. Use Cinematics to remote-control objects in scenes.

How do I let players interact via keyboard?
Use com.jme3.input.KeyInput and a Input Listener.
Learn more: Hello Input, Input Handling
How do I let players interact by clicking?
Players typically click the mouse to pick up objects, to open doors, to shoot a weapon, etc. Use an Input Listener to respond to mouse clicks, then cast a ray from the player; if it intersects with the bounding volume of a spatial, this is the selected target. The links below contain code samples for both "fixed crosshair picking and "free mouse pointer picking.
How do I animate characters?
Create an animated OgreMesh model with bones in a 3-D mesh editor (e.g. Blender).

How do I keep players from falling through walls and floors?
Use collision detection. The most common solution is to use jme's physics integration, jBullet.
Learn more: Hello Collision, Physics, com.jme3.bullet., CapsuleCollisionShape versus CompoundCollisionShape, CharacterControl versus RigidBodyControl.
How do I make balls/wheels/etc bounce and roll?
Add physics controls to Spatials and give them spherical or cylindrical bounding volumes.
How do I debug weird Physics behaviour?
Maybe your collision shapes overlap – or they are not where you think they are. Make the collision shapes visible by adding the following line after the bulletAppState initialization:
How do I make a walking character?
You can use jBullet's CharacterControl that locks a physical object upright, so it does not tip over when moving/walking (as tall physical objects are typically wanted to).
Learn more: CharacterControl
Code samples: TestQ3.java (first-person), TestPhysicsCharacter.java (third-person)
How do I steer vehicles?
Use a VehicleControl that supports suspension behavior.
Learn more: Vehicles, com.jme3.bullet., VehicleControl
Code samples: TestFancyCar.java, (Press HUJK keys to steer, spacebar to jump.)
Can objects swing like a pendulums, chains, ropebridges?
Use a PhysicsControl's hinges and joints.
Learn more: Hinges and Joints, [com.jme3.bullet.joints.], TestPhysicsHingeJoint.java (Press HK keys to turn, spacebar to swing.)
Default GUI Display
What are these FPS/Objects/Vertices/Triangles statistics?
At the bottom left of every default SimpleGame, you see the StatsView and the FPS (frames per seconds) view. These views provide you with extra information during the development phase. For example, if you notice the object count is increasing and the FPS is decreasing, then you know that your code attaches too many objects and does not detach enough of them again (maybe a loop gone wild?).
Learn more: StatsView
How do I get rid of the FPS/Objects statistics?
In the application's simpleInitApp() method, call:
setDisplayFps(false); // to hide the FPS
setDisplayStatView(false); // to hide the statistics
How do I display score, health, mini-maps, status icons?
Attach text and pictures to the orthogonal
guiNode to create a heads-up display (HUD).

I want to access to back-end properties
How do I read out graphic card capabilities?
If your game is heavily using features that older cards do not support, you can Read Graphic Card Capabilites in the beginning before starting the app, and then decide how to proceed.
Collection<com.jme3.renderer.Caps> caps = renderer.getCaps();
Logger.getLogger(HelloJME3.class.getName()).log(Level.INFO, "Capabilities: {0}", caps.toString());
How do I Run jMonkeyEngine 3 with OpenGL1?
In your game, add
to the AppSettings (see details there).
For the jMonkeyEngine SDK itself, choose Options > OpenGL, and check OpenGL1.
How do I optimize the heck out of the Scene Graph?
You can batch all Geometries in a scene (or a subnode) that remains static.
Batching means that all Geometries with the same Material are combined into one mesh. This optimization only has an effect if you use only few (roughly up to 32) Materials total. The pay-off is that batching takes extra time when the game is initialized.
How do I prevent users from unzipping my JAR?
Add an obfuscator to the Ant script. The SDK comes with a basic obfuscation script that you can enable in the project settings.
I want to do maths
What does addLocal() / multLocal() etc mean?
Many maths functions (mult(), add(), subtract(), etc) come as local and a non-local variant (multLocal(), addLocal(), subtractLocal(), etc).
Non-local means a new independent object is created (similar to clone()) as a return value. Use non-local methods if you want to keep using the old value of the object calling the method.
Example 1:
Quaternion q1 = q2.mult(q3);
Returns the result as a new Quaternion q1.
The involved objects q2 and q3 stay as they are and can be reused.
Example 2:
Watch out: This calculates the expected result, but unless you actually use the return value, it is discarded!
Local means that no new objects are created, instead, the calling object is modified. Use this if you are sure you no longer need the old value of the calling object.
Example 1:
Calculates q2*q3 without creating temp objects.
The result is stored in the calling object q2. The old value of q2 is gone.
Object q3 stays as it was.
Example 2:
Calculates the expected result without creating temp objects.
The result is stored in the calling object v. The old value of v is gone.
The objects a and b stay as they were.
What is the difference between World and Local coordinates?
World coordinates of a Spatial are its absolute coordinates in the 3D scene (this is like giving GPS coordinates). Local coordinates are relative to the Spatial's parent Spatial (this is like saying, "I'm ten meters left of the entrance).
How do I convert Degrees to Radians?
Multiply degree value by FastMath.DEG_TO_RAD to convert it to radians.

Harbin ethnography:
... To engage Harbin on its own terms, the ethnographic methods I develop here involve reading Ishvara's first impressions in historical record, as actual place and emerging milieu.
What can ethnography tell us about actual and virtual Harbin in the present vis-a-vis method? While understanding some of Ishvara's low-key influence at Harbin over the years opens many possibilities for exploring the remarkable fabric of Harbin life vis-a-vis its emergence from the 1960s, the community, and ways of life, which have emerged at Harbin, since 1972, are especially significant in fathoming Harbin's unique fabric of life and its vision. In addition to one far-reaching interview with Ishvara in 2008 (MacLeod 2008), as well as interviews with a number of long term residents, the significance, in particular, of the Harbin pool area, and especially of the pools themselves, is central to the understanding on-the-ground Harbin. And pool work, emerging out of the practices of ethnographic field work, is a new, anthropological method emerging here, finding form in fluidity and release in an warm aqueous environment, vis-a-vis participant observation. In the context of Harbin as Heart Consciousness Church, interpreting both 1960s language, as well, as New Age processes significantly given form by hippies, in some ways may involve developing relatively unexplored, anthropological connectednesses – in the pools.
To study a virtual Harbin, or virtual Harbins, in relation to an ethnographic interpretation of actual Harbin vis-a-vis its pools, as well as its emergence from the 1960s, involves relatively new approaches to ethnography vis-a-vis cyberspace, and comparison. ...

Soffit and Fascia in Tampa, FL
From the ground, what looks like a simple matter of repainting your home's fascia boards can actually be an indication of rot and water damage that could start reaching into the rafters and roof. Left long enough, critters and the elements can infiltrate the eaves and roof of your home, creating the opportunity for more extensive damage to your rafters, roof decking, ceilings and more.
If you suspect a problem with your home's soffit or fascia, take steps to protect your home as quickly as possible. ANDY OnCall® offers a free evaluation and estimate of the cost for soffit and fascia repairs or replacement.
Soffit and Fascia Repair
The fascia boards are the flat pieces of trim that hang down along the roof line. If they aren't properly installed and protected, such as with a drip line and proper fasteners, water can get into and behind the boards. Faulty gutters that trap wet leaves against the fascia or allow water to stand on the board also contribute to problems with moisture and rot. Soffits, on the other hand, are located under the eaves.
If you stand under the edge of the roof and look up, the flat covering, which is often vented, is the soffit. Though it would seem to be somewhat protected from the elements, this area of a house is still susceptible to damage from wind, water, squirrels and other animals, as well as the simple passing of time. In fact, when rainwater doesn't drip properly away from the fascia, it can begin to run along the soffit. Problems with the fascia and soffit often go hand in hand.
Soffit and Fascia Replacement
When water or animal damage is more extensive, it is wise to consider a larger project for total soffit and fascia replacement. As with all ANDY OnCall® jobs:
- Our craftsman visits your home to assess the scope of the work.
- You receive a free, no-obligation estimate of the labor costs.
- If you choose to proceed, the work can begin immediately or at the time of your choosing.
- You pay the actual cost of the materials with no markup.
- When the project is finished, you approve the work and make final payment to ANDY OnCall.
Vinyl Soffit and Fascia
Our years of experience working on homes in Tampa, FL, have taught us a few things. One thing we know for sure is that investing in the right materials for the job usually saves time and money in the long run. You can minimize your future maintenance costs and protect your home by choosing vinyl soffit and fascia products. Wood is certainly fine, but it does require additional preparation and upkeep to maintain its appearance and integrity. We're happy to answer any questions you have about upgrading to vinyl soffit and fascia for your project.
Choosing ANDY OnCall®
Peeling paint, ragged-looking corners and misaligned boards may be the first clue that your fascia boards are failing. Upon closer inspection of the damage, you are likely to discover rotted sections that need immediate attention. Let ANDY OnCall® match you with a qualified craftsman who can complete your soffit and fascia installation or repair project to minimize the risk of more expensive repairs in the future. Our craftsman will also help you identify the source of the problem so that the repair will be successful in protecting your home. Contact us today to set up your appointment for a free estimate.

As a growing number of homes contain more than one computer, their users must find ways to network them. The primary purpose for creating a home network tends to be to provide Internet access to all computers within the house. There are other good reasons, however. These include enabling LAN gaming, data backups from one machine to another and the sharing of music within the home.

On the way back from
the Alberoni to the centre, we suggest you to walk
or ride by the XVIII century Murazzi,
reaching the Excelsior Hotel and the Casino area.
Here rose another old fortress called "Quattro
Fontane" and now, in its place, between sea
and lagoon you can see the Casino
and the "Palazzo del Cinema", built during
the thirties. They are the ideal places for many international
events, such as the Film festival, taking place every
year at the beginning of September.
Just keep going along Via Dardanelli, flanked
by liberty-style houses and gardens, and you
will get to the Gran Viale, the all planted
with trees, a wide road which stretches all
through the island from lagoon to sea, connecting
the old district of S.Maria Elisabetta where
you can still find some small, renovated XIX
century hotels, with the Blue Moon, the brand
new building facing the sea.
A shady lagoon promenade, flanked
by many liberty-style houses, takes you from the Votive
Church of S.Maria Elisabetta, built after World War
II in the main square, to S.Nicolò,
which once was the biggest fortress of the island.
Nowadays you can still visit the XVII century church
with its cloister, where the Serenissima used to celebrate
the "Sea wedding" on Ascension day : the
same ceremony still takes place by parading decorated
Do not miss the old and charming
HEBREW CEMETARY, built in 1389,which
has been restored and can be easily visited.
Just nearby, you can see the NICELLI
AIRPORT, where small private jets
and some tourist planes can land. Flights
to Venice are permitted as well as parachute
