Here's an official statement from Denmark's DENIAL OF GOD: "As some of you may have heard most of the shows on our upcoming South American tour have been cancelled for reasons way out of our hands. A couple of shows got cancelled and the whole cardhouse came tumbling down due to very unprofessional handling of it all by David Delgado / Sephira Daath Productions, who never got around to providing us with a fully detailed tour schedule nor plane tickets. He couldn't even find the decency to make it public that some shows have been cancelled (just like in the ENTHRONED case recently) and apparently still owes money to some bookers. All we got was a lot of talk and empty promises and we wasted a lot of time on this. But luckily there are still some serious and dedicated souls out there, so the two planned shows in Brazil in Caverna's Bar, Cuiaba (12/9) and Inferno Club, Sao Paulo (13/9) will still take place as the only two remaining shows out of the promised 12 shows, so come join us for two nights of total fucking death! It's your only chance to catch the ghouls this time." More DENIAL OF GOD at www.facebook.com/pages/denial-of-god/196575850368007

text: It's hard to put into words the inspiration I found while taking portraits of the kids at The Cardinal Cushing Centers in Hanover. I originally had the idea that their rooms would tell the individual story lines but as I wondered around what feels like a campus or small town I quickly realized that the arc of their tales should be told by what makes their day to day lives so unique. Here's a start or a sketch of a greater idea to come . . .

3 Simple Tips for Eating Out
Yesterday we had a team lunch out. As always it was hard to stay away from the good stuff. I tell you this now, our AI Health Assistant wasn't very happy with us. But oh, fried stuff is yummy. So are sauces.
Sometimes you're allowed a treat, we felt we were yesterday, but I we were to follow our AI Health Assistant's advice, this is what we would think of:
Preparation is key
Ask how the meal will be prepared. If possible, stay away from meals which are fried or deep fried. Frying uses lots of oil in the cooking process which means the food tends to contain higher calories and often has lower nutritional value. Foods which are broiled, poached, baked or grilled tend to be cooked with less oil, and thus have fewer calories for the same 'portion' of food and tend to be healthier.
Pick your ingredients
If possible, try to choose dishes made with whole grains, healthy oils, vegetables, and lean proteins. That may mean skipping a burger and instead of having a wholemeal wrap or salad, or it may mean choosing a chicken breast instead of pork belly. Whenever possible try to ensure that at least half of your meals contain vegetables or salads to keep up your macronutrient and fiber intake.
Beware of sauces!
Sauces can be delicious but they can hide calories. Many sauces are calorie rich and can nearly double the calorie intake of a food. If you are choosing sauces try to pick ones which are vinaigrette bases as they will tend to be lower in calories than gravies and creamy sauces.
Happy Eating!

This is largely related to a high consumption of total fat and undesirable saturated fatty acids present in meat. High consumption of total and saturated fatty acids has also been demonstrated to be positively related to the development of coronary heart diseases, diabetes and obesity.
Scientists from the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) are actively working with international partners in China, Portugal, Spain and others towards making meat healthier via genetic selection and manipulation of animal diets, as well as developing novel cutting edge tools (bio-sensors) for rapid and cost-effective analysis of meat quality traits.
"There is bad fat and good fat in the meat", says Professor Olena Doran, Director of Centre for Research in Bioscience at UWE Bristol, "Meats containing large amounts of saturated fatty acids are not good for health. However, unsaturated fatty acids are known to have a number of health benefits. Furthermore, consumers are interested in seeing meat with less subcutaneous fat, but with sufficient level of intramuscular fat which gives the meat tenderness and juiciness.
"We are working with international partners on improving fat content of the meat and making the fat healthier via the development of biomarkers for desirable fatty acid composition and modification of animal diet. Our research is also about developing technology that can effectively and rapidly test nutritional quality and safety of meat.
"For the past few years we have been working on a project supported by the UK Research Council, BBSRC, Biosciences Knowledge Transfer Partnership and an industrial partner that will provide data to form a basis for developing a genetic test for intramuscular fat to assist pig breeders in genetic selection."
To investigate the effect of animal diet on fat content, the Centre for Research in Biosciences at UWE Bristol has been working in collaboration with the Technical University of Lisbon, Portugal (supported by British Council and Portuguese Government) and the University of Lleida, Catalonia, Spain to look at interaction between diets and breeds using not only commercial European pig breeds, but also specific Portuguese and Spanish breeds, such as Iberian, which are used for production of high quality dry cured ham.
Furthermore, in collaboration with colleagues from Food Research institute IRTA in Catalonia, and China Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the researcher team has been developing novel technologies for food quality analysis. The collaboration with China is a part of the BBSRC UK/China partnership on novel technologies that recently saw a co-organised international conference in Beijing in September 2012, where the researchers discussed the latest achievement in both fundamental research on food quality and technology development.
The particular emphasis was on such bio-sensing technologies developed at UWE Bristol as electrochemical bio-sensors, magnetic immuno test 3D vision technology, DNA and protein biomarkers and bioluminescence bacteria based sensors.
The colleagues from China presented their research on the development of analytical techniques for agro-products, new methods for detection of veterinary drugs, microbial toxins and food borne pathogens, presented multi-contaminants screening and other techniques. New links between UK and Chinese academia and industry has initiated discussion about long-term research and educational programmes.
Editor's notes
'Genetic control of fat partitioning in pigs' is funded by the Biosciences KNT (former Genesis Faraday Partnership) BBSRC Industrial CASE Studentship award. The Biosciences KTN supports industry-relevant research in the area of genetics and genomics of farm animals and this is the first Genesis Faraday BBSRC CASE Studentship awarded to UWE. The research on novel technologies for food quality has been supported by BBSRC UK/China Partnering Award to the University of the West of England.

I freaked out until 2 days before hand. At that point, I said eff this, what will be, will be.
Wanna know what happened?
The only sticky situation was at the RD- people wouldn't sit down/too busy being social to let others find the open seats.
Everything else was absolutely perfect, in no small part to my coordinator's help, my awesome DJ and officiant, and my mom (my moron sister never thought to press the flower girl dresses for my nieces, despite them being shipped to her and then carted across the country- she has a BS from MIT and an MD, yet it took my mom seeing the dresses and suggesting they needed an ironing for the light bulb to flicker on. Mom ended up pressing them- in the photos, they look great, but Mom told me originally they looked like they'd been stuffed into a remote corner of the closests in the girls' rooms for 3 months).
@always, they did, though DH was grumbling in front of everyone that "we should have planned the RD better (ie, have place cards for everyone)"- for the record, we had a last minute 4 person cancellation for the RD due to work issues, and last minute invites in their place (i know i know, but it's not my fault- parents sprung these sets on us at the last minute, AFTER they'd invited these people. I wanted to punch a puppy). So even if we'd done place cards, we wouldn't have had the right ones. DH and I discussed his grumbles later, and I told him the next time we have a party that takes a year to plan (I did at least 96% of all the work for the wedding planning), he can plan it, and I will whine and grumble about planning better for things beyond our control.
As long as you are nice to everyone, feed them, give them at least water, and not make everyone stand around in the heat and direct sunshine, they will enjoy themselves/you will fulfill your obligations as a good host.
I was the same way a few weeks beforehand, so here is how I coped. I will answer your questions:Always2014 said:Am I forgetting something? Should I bring a jacket? What have I forgotten to pack? Will our suitcases be over the weight limit? How will I get my dress to my hotel room? What if there is no space in the closet on the plane? Should I contact everyone when they get in?

I've always been an all or nothing kind of person, anyone who knows me can attest to this. As soon as I put my mind to something I instantly want it all straight away, or nothing at all. It's a good quality for many things, I certainly think I'm quite driven and persistent when I have a goal, but this trait isn't always so beneficial.
I speak to many health enthusiasts that have this personality trait, but in their case it can come out when they try to navigate their health. Eating well can become less about feeling great, and more about sticking within the border of what one deems to be healthy. It becomes more restrictive and less intuitive. This is where you need to find a balance.
The medical term for obsessing over healthy eating is Orthorexia, which is something not many people would like to identify with. The thing is, it's a humongous spectrum, and one almost all of us can slightly identify with. Haven't you ever felt very guilty after 'splurging' on something slightly naughty after weeks back on track? Then you splurge and you feel like it's a downward spiral because you cheated. It's a little like a new years resolution, the ones that are easy to break are the ones that have rigid walls. If you just embraced that splurge, appreciated it for what it was (probably bloody DELICIOUS!) and didn't think about it again, you'd be back with your bowl of Quinoa at the drop of a hat.
So here are five things to help you find balance, appreciate the odd indulgence and be truly healthy:
Sometimes a rigid 100% healthy is not healthy – you need to have flexibility, balance and an open mind. When I first started eating well there were so many more boxes I felt I had to tick in order to be healthy. It almost felt like a rule book that had "something-free" on every line. However, navigating your health by sticking within other peoples' parameters is not healthy, you need to find your own. Over time I found out what worked for me, the foods my body thrived off and the foods it didn't, and through this self-discovery the meals I choose to eat never feel restrictive but taylor-made. Of course I want to eat the food that I know makes me feel my best!
I seriously loathe the term "cheat meal." It says that the way you eat is a chore, and all other foods are a guilt ridden escape. Emotion and food are so highly linked that thinking of eating something to cheat, is not the best way to look at it. Embrace a bit of balance, you don't have to put a label on it.
If I'm out with my friends and we fancy a sorbet, I'm not going to flinch at the sugar content….. well I will, but it's not going to stop me loving every bite! The foods you steer away from you steer away from because you know how they make you feel, so having one once in a while is not a "cheat" it's simply an indulgence for your tastebuds that shouldn't be associated with anything other than a healthy bit of balance.
I often speak to women who have gone vegan for weight loss, but hide behind the term to subconsciously distract friends and family. In so many cases the natural effect to eating a plant rich diet and cutting out processed foods is shedding a few pounds here and there, and that is perfectly natural. Where it gets unhealthy is if you change your diet radically and instead of replacing the nutrients in (some-what) equal measure you only go for basic salads and vegetables you are depleting your body of the things it needs to stay strong. Focus on how you feel eating a wholesome plant based diet and if you feel fabulous, your weight will fall where it needs to be. If you do make the leap, know why your doing it based on how you feel.
What's the best thing about food? I would say the incredible way it brings people together and of course how simple combinations and flavours can make you feel. What do you think?
Food is supposed to be fuelling you to have wild adventures and immense success. It is of course a pretty emotional thing, but I do feel that in the world of wellness you should never take you or your diet too seriously. As my ballet teachers always said growing up "Have a strong core, and a flexible back bone." The same goes, know what works, but know you can adapt from time to time and that's cool.
Don't just respect your body, but respect your mind in equal measure. Health isn't a singular thing, and being truly healthy is as much physical as it is mental.
Love the skin you're in, nourish yourself and embrace your balance.

As I mentioned above, right after reading all the comments, I felt the intense need to have to make my own comment, something I dont generally do on a stranger's blog. In Oklahoma the title act has been repealed and you might call yourself an interior designer, but only those who have passed all 3 sections of the Q can be referred to as Registered Interior Designers. All of these complement the environmentally aware design and style and construction of period 19th century properties and are effortlessly adaptable for use right now. Education: No much less than 60 semester 90 quarter credits of interior design coursework that culminates in a certificate, degree or diploma. There was a prominent designer right here in Houston who was referred to by a magazine as an Interior Designer. You can also export a snapshot of your interior view to JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and BMP.

Switch views in order to see and stroll around the structure in 3D. Make modifications to your house style project in effortless drag-and-drop workflow. Unfortunately, this group Texans for Interior Style Deregulation" recently lost their very first bid – out maneuvered by higher priced lobbyists. Essentially – numerous in the field believe there is no need to have at all for regulation of interior design and style. Although front doors get a lot of consideration, they are hardly the only exterior doors in a home. It is hard to see why the Interior Decorator/Designer, whose primary work consists of colors, fabrics and furniture selection and placement demands state involvement.
At this final stage you might decide to pursue any specialist region or niche of interest to you in interior style. His most significant publication was The Grammar of Ornament (1856), eight in which Jones formulated 37 key principles of interior style and decoration. Nonetheless, as an avid virtual window shopper, there are a lot of other stores in addition to Pottery Barn that I go to and shop at routinely. Upgrading your self in this profession guarantees an enjoyable career and a better future exactly where you will move and mingle with the higher flyers in the interior style globe. In this section I have integrated many commercial interior design pictures and ideas to show you how we can look at issues which can give us thoughts and suggestions from a different prespective, which we can downsize and adapt to our home.
Even though you could not see the advantage straight off, this is in fact great for cleaning or refinishing the doors and cabinets. Firstly, the interior is inherently ephemeral, as individuals are constantly moving objects around in interior spaces, altering the way the space is configured and as a result how it operates. An individual may possibly wish to specialize and create technical expertise certain to one region or type of interior design, such as residential design and style, commercial design, hospitality style, healthcare design and style, universal design and style, exhibition style, furnishings design, and spatial branding. By including these added elements of the interior – the temporal and the phenomenological – into an interior history, we can begin to realize how the interior is much more than just an architectural container. So according to TN regulations, two are interior decorators and one particular is an interior designer.
When we enter a developing, we cease becoming merely its observer we grow to be its content material." (Abercrombie, 1990: 3) Importantly, the interior is defined by Abercrombie as inseparable from the individuals who inhabit it, so an interior history that just catalogues and analyzes empty architectural containers seems inadequate. Several people wanting to enter the interior designing profession remind me of a large arts and crafts franchise starting a new retailer and hiring people to get it launched in the locality. Pocket doors are a great answer to regain significantly needed square footage as effectively as enable the doors to be hidden from view when not in use.

Oil Boiler Control
Boil your oil or run too cool no more! Improved Racing of Orlando, Florida, just released the first oil cooler adapter with a built-in thermostat for the C7 Corvette. Improved Racing's president and lead engineer Michael Ihns stated, "the C7 factory water-to-oil heat exchanger is acceptable for street use but insufficient for track or performance use." And went on to explain "replacing the factory unit with a traditional air-to-oil cooler can reduce both oil and coolant temps at the track, but without a thermostat one risks over-cooling the oil on the street and will experience long engine oil warm-up times, resulting in excess engine wear."

"Duncan Cameron's solo on "What Kind of Love is This?" still amazes (no pun intended) me; supposedly it was one take at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio (the new one on the river). Too bad Amazon chose not to list the tracks but the CD also has nice covers of "Wild Nights" and Dan Penn's "You Left The Water Running"."

Interview with Owen Matthews, author of Pushkin Prize 2014 shortlisted book 'Glorious Misadventures'
Interview by Andrew Jack (@AJack)
What is your connection to Russia?
My mother is Russian, and I have been going there since birth. I never really considered myself to be properly Russian but perhaps I am more so than I think. With age, I have started to ascribe some of my more self-destructive character traits to Russianness.
What inspired you to write the book?
I had seen the Soviet Union's first ever rock opera, Juno and Avos, at the Lenkom theatre in Moscow, which opened in 1981. It tells the story of a dashing Russian aristrocrat, and his quest to conquer California's fairest daughter, Conchita. It's based on a poem by Andrei Voznesensky, a protégé of Pasternak. It turned out to be a true story, to my great surprise, based on my protagonist Nikolai Rezanov, and it's very well known in Russia. But it's not at all known in the west. For many years it was in the back of my mind. I thought it was time to revisit this quixotic corner of history.
How easy was it for the Soviet regime to permit that story on stage?
It's an extraordinary miracle that it was ever produced under Brezhnev and Andropov: a story all about Russian imperialism and Tsarist aristocrats, with an icon hoisted on stage and the Orthodox liturgy. It was a very strange, radical event in those pre-perestroika days. Like so many in the Soviet period, it happened by accident. It was not that anyone on high approved it, but rather that the director just happened to get a very sleepy, lazy board of censors, buttered them up in the usual way, and this committee of old Bolsheviks just nodded it through. They had especially written it with bits they intended to be cut, and were utterly amazed when passed in toto. They were so delighted, they went on a two-day drinking session in the National Hotel.
So what is the underlying story?
It's about Russia's failed attempt to colonise America from the other side. My hero, or anti-hero, is Rezanov. It encompasses the whole idea of longing, of being separated by the tides of history – a very Russian theme.
Any thoughts on the story's relevance to the recent events in Ukraine?
One of the most interesting things about the whole period is that it is the moment when Russia first really starts to assert itself as a European power. You have entirely surprising things: the Russian army occupied Rome in the 1790s. Milan. The Russian naval power defeats the Ottomans at Cesme in the 1760s. Rezanov is from Russia's really true imperial generation, when the idea emerged of projecting Russian power beyond its borders as part of a concerted imperial government strategy. Before it had been ad hoc, with expansion by merchant adventurers. By the end of the eighteenth century, Russia was emerging as self consciously expansionist, trying to carve out a place in Europe.
What was the most surprising experience for you during your research?
One is very used to seeing imperial echoes of France and Britain – ticket machines, trams, French lampposts. They are very familiar phenomena. It's much more surprising to see imperial echoes of Russia. But in Alaska, the main feature of every village is a Russian church on the coast. Almost all the native Americans are Russian orthodox. They have Russian names and surnames. It's all very odd. On one island there, I was sitting in a room with two Russian priests, one who was Japanese and the other a white American from Washington state, plus three deacons who were all Aleut natives. They were all discussing the liturgy in English, wearing black cassocks, beards. Yet I was the most Russian person in the room. In California, you have the Russian River marking the furthest advances, and at Fort Ross, there are extremely Russian-looking, buildings, church, cannons and double-headed eagles from the1840s – which were all rebuilt by the National Parks Service in 1976!
How difficult was it finding source material?
That was one of the great joys of writing this book – there was plenty of information. One of the central events is when Rezanov sets out in 1883 on his first round the world voyage. It turned out to be incredibly fractious and disastrous. Luckily for me, almost every participant wrote a diary. There was an enormous richness of detail, including some which was very amusing and extremely rude because it was not written for publication. Rezanov himself was a bureaucratic, a dedicated scribbler. And a lot of correspondence exists in triplicate so it has survived. Because he knew of the unreliability of communications across Siberia and the Pacific, he always sent three copies. Luckily, a lot of the Russian-American Company archives were sold to the Americans, so it is in the Library of Congress.
What was Rezanov's legacy?
At one point Rezanov wanted to make the American settlement a kind of Russian version of Australia. His initial vision was as a penal colony, where convicts were shipped off – a kind of giant gulag. After he got there, and spent so many years away from St Petersburg, he realised it was not going to work if you tell people to work. It would fall apart into corruption, alcoholism and incompetence. He saw the only way to make it work would be to create a class of property-owning smallholders to buy, trade, prosper and become citizens. Exactly the model the east coast of the same continent followed. Had he lived longer and succeeded, it would have been very interesting to see how this reformed version of Russian society would have evolved. We think of the Decembrists in 1825 returning from occupied Paris after the Napoleonic wars, but many also spent time in the Americas and brought back these ideas.
Is your book translated into Russian?
It is underway. There are a large number of Russian enthusiasts and amateur historians for whom Rezanov is a hero. I think they'll be slightly upset. He was not a hero but a chancer, a bit of a scoundrel. For me, he's much more interesting as a result: he's a man who saw the world as it might be, not as is it. Instead of a banal romantic history of an imperial conquistador, there is a rather complex, conflicted man who went in search of a fortune, suddenly stumbled on the new world and created a new version of his own country to plant there.
What is your next book?
I'm writing a novel set in Chechnya during the second war, which I covered for Newsweek. It's about a war crime that carries across the generations.

Chapter One
The klaxon suddenly woke her up.
As she came to consciousness she could hear the voice of a slightly annoyed young man announcing something.
The ship's klaxon sounded again.
It took her a moment to remember that her name was Joan Sherman, and that she was a Lieutenant (Junior Grade) in the Navy of the Republic of Freya.
Oh, and that she was also the captain of the Freya Navy Ship Reliable.
Joan donned and zipped up her gray shipboard jumpsuit. She didn't bother to put on any shoes before punching the button that opened the door of her tiny cabin.
The first thing Joan noticed as she stepped onto the cramped bridge of the Reliable was that there were no stars, planets, or other bodies visible in the forward windows. There was only the unlit dull gray of Jumpspace.
There was no real emergency, only a randomly scheduled battle drill.
But as the captain Joan still had to play her role in the exercise.
There were three other people on the bridge when she entered it.
Sitting in the pilot's seat was the executive officer, Ensign Hal Banning. At the fire control station running a simulation of the tactical scenario was the gunner, Petty Officer Third Class Jim Ripley. He was only wearing the tee shirt and boxer shorts that he normally slept in.
Standing on deck was the Chief of the Boat.
Normally a vessel such as the Reliable, an elderly Swift class multi-mission sloop, one of the smallest craft capable of transiting Jumpspace, would only rate a Petty Officer Third Class, or Second Class at best, as the senior noncommissioned officer on board.
The Republic of Freya Navy had very politely asked a retired Master Chief Petty Officer of the Freya Colonial Space Guard, the predecessor service to the Navy, to come out of retirement for one year. Dennis Compton wasn't quite old enough to be Lieutenant Sherman's grandfather, but he was fairly close to it.
It was time for the captain to speak.
"What's the situation?"
Master Chief Petty Officer Compton replied.
"Captain, we have a Federation Tango class patrol ship on an intercept vector to us." He said. "We are running evasive maneuvers."
"What the hell do they want?" Said the Lieutenant.
"They want us to surrender." Said the Master Chief.
Up until about five years ago the Federation was the coalition of English speaking nations and their allies who held political domination over the Earth. The eruption of the Yellowstone super volcano brought an abrupt end to it. With the Federation capital buried under several meters of volcanic ash and anyone who could not leave the planet dying of starvation or killed in the vast planetwide food riot the Federation as an effective political entity was dead.
But the vast fleet of starships paid for by ten billion no longer living taxpayers still existed. Some of those ships were still operated by the coalition of core colonies that claimed to be the continuation of the Federation. Some ships went to those worlds who put in the highest bid for their services. Others simply went pirate.
And some of those had already attacked the Freyani homeworld.
The Tango class patrol ship had four times the size, mass, and firepower of the Reliable and had twice the acceleration. In a fight with conventional weapons the Reliable would lose.
But it didn't really matter who was in control of the attacking ship. Surrender was simply not an option.
"We are not going to surrender." She said. "Load the Bird."
It wasn't a technically correct order but the gunner understood it clearly.
"Load Mark Two anti-ship weapon, aye, aye." He replied.
The Reliable carried a single triple weapon turret fitted in what the Freyan Navy called the Bravo configuration. Two beam lasers rated at 750 megawatts each, and a single missile launcher. The missile launcher normally carried three of the Mark One anti-ship missiles in the ready rack.
A basic anti-ship missile such as the Freyan Navy Mark One was a kinetic energy kill system. The warhead was a segmented mass of steel with a bursting charge to scatter the fragments should the missile's guidance system fail to achieve a direct dead-on impact on the target.
But it was understood by the political and military leaders of the Republic of Freya that not all of their patrol vessels would have the upper hand in every situation. Thus a "battery-round", which was one weapon per launcher, of Mark Two anti-ship weapons would be issued to each patrol ship regardless of its size.
The Mark Two anti-ship weapon carried a five kiloton boosted fission nuclear warhead. In the parlance of the patrol forces of the Freyan Navy it was called The Bird or The Finger. It was simply the weapon of last resort.
In the aft section of the ship in the accessway to the single turret the rest of the crew practiced the loading procedure with blue painted inert practice rounds.
On the bridge Lieutenant Sherman turned to the Master Chief and gave him an order.
"Chief of the Boat, unlock the safe." She said.
"Unlock the safe, aye, aye." He replied.
On the aft end of the bridge a bright and shiny box was bolted to the bulkhead. The Master Chief dialed the combination of mechanical lock on the box. With the final click of the lock he opened the box, reached in and picked out one of the two manila
envelopes in the box. The first envelope was marked with a red stripe and sealed with red colored wax. The other envelope had no markings and was merely closed with the flap in.
The Master Chief picked out the second envelope and handed it to Lieutenant Sherman.
Joan opened the envelope and removed the practice arming key for the Mark Two anti-ship weapon. She turned to the ship's gunner and spoke.
"Fire Control, what is the status of the Mark Two?"
"Captain," he said, "I show the Mark Two loaded and ready to launch. Firing solution is laid in."
"I am arming the weapon." She replied.
Lieutenant Sherman turned and stepped towards the pilot's station.
On top of the forward control panel between the pilot's and co-pilot/navigator's seats was bolted a small shiny box with two key slots and red and a yellow light. Joan inserted the key into the slot under the yellow light.
"I am arming the weapon." She said.
She turned the key and the yellow light lit up.
"Captain." Said the Gunner. "I show the weapon is armed."
"Launch weapon." Lieutenant Sherman ordered.
"Launch weapon, aye, aye!" The Gunner replied.
The Gunner pressed a button and watched the results on the fire control display.
"Weapon away!" he yelled.
Joan heard the click of a stopwatch being stopped. She turned to the Master Chief to see that he had pulled the stopwatch from a pocket in his shipboard jumpsuit.
"How did we do?" She asked the Master Chief.
"We passed, Ma'am." He replied.
"And?" She said.
"We could do better, Ma'am." Said the Master Chief.
Ensign Banning in the pilot's seat failed to suppress his own groan.

Gorgeously executed painting in fine detail on paper mounted on Chinese scroll.
Portrait of a civil servant couple with lovely detail in the background screen, altar table and clothing.
The master who produced this unusual and beautifully executed yantra on stiffened cotton cloth used vegetal pigments and natural ink. In lieu of Buddha sitting at the center of the drawing and the symbolic center of the cosmic universe, there is a cross containing powerful sacred gatha (chants) and representing Mount Meru. The overall effect of the combination of 28 Buddhas alternating with cabalistic squares is one of dimension. Elegantly drawn deva, spirits or angels, guard each cardinal direction, giving a contradictory impression of being anchored to the central mandala and of ethereal flight. This magical drawing invites respect for Buddha and his teachings and invokes compassion, support and protection from all directions. 42" x 42"
A rare painting by a very fine hand of a Chinese Lohan in liquid gold on a persimmon background. Artist unknown.
Detail from a set of three paintings of Boddhisattvas, China, early 19th century.
A rare oversized portrait of a nobleman painted on silk and mounted on a Chinese scroll.
Ink and pigment on cotton cloth depicting Taoist gods and ancestors. Mounted on cloth stretched on a wood frame.
A piya yantra for compassion and affection, filled with charms and full of charm, probably for a man who intended to win the heart of a woman, it features double-tailed geckos, a half-horse deva (spirits or angels), and an earth goddess at the center of the cosmos. Within circles are the peacock and the hare representing the sun and the moon. The eight circles represent the eight major and minor compass points, assuring the the magic will travel in all directions. 2'3" x 2' 2.5" mounted on cloth stretched over a wood frame. (Reference: Chinalai, "Sex and Spirit in Magical Yantra")

The games will be "customized and developed" specifically for PS3 and include additional features such as Sixaxis support, new add-on content, and/or stereoscopic 3D support. Save files will be transferable back and forth between the original PSP game and the PS3 version. Ad-hoc mode gameplay will also be supported though the "adhoc party for PlayStation Portable" application on the PS3 system but not with every title. Sony notes the application is not supported on the 20GB model (CECHB00) which does not include Wi-Fi.
In Japan, the first PSP Remaster title will be Monster Hunter Portable 3rd HD Ver. from Capcom. "The graphics of the PS3 version, including monsters, fields, equipment, as well as Felyne Comrades, are more gorgeous and vibrant than ever, and will deliver dynamic gameplay when played on the large TV screens," Sony said.
No other details, such as North American or Europe release plans, were revealed at this time. The press release notes that PSP "blockbuster games" will be remastered, so the selection will likely be limited to top-selling titles only.
