For days I've been slogging through a rain-soaked jungle in Indonesian New Guinea, on a quest to visit members of the Korowai tribe, among the last people on earth to practice cannibalism. Soon after first light this morning I boarded a pirogue, a canoe hacked out of a tree trunk, for the last stage of the journey, along the twisting Ndeiram Kabur River. Now the four paddlers bend their backs with vigor, knowing we will soon make camp for the night.
From This Story
My guide, Kornelius Kembaren, has traveled among the Korowai for 13 years. But even he has never been this far upriver, because, he says, some Korowai threaten to kill outsiders who enter their territory. Some clans are said to fear those of us with pale skin, and Kembaren says many Korowai have never laid eyes on a white person. They call outsiders laleo ("ghost-demons").
Suddenly, screams erupt from around the bend. Moments later, I see a throng of naked men brandishing bows and arrows on the riverbank. Kembaren murmurs to the boatmen to stop paddling. "They're ordering us to come to their side of the river," he whispers to me. "It looks bad, but we can't escape. They'd quickly catch us if we tried."
As the tribesmen's uproar bangs at my ears, our pirogue glides toward the far side of the river. "We don't want to hurt you," Kembaren shouts in Bahasa Indonesia, which one of our boatmen translates into Korowai. "We come in peace." Then two tribesmen slip into a pirogue and start paddling toward us. As they near, I see that their arrows are barbed. "Keep calm," Kembaren says softly.
Cannibalism was practiced among prehistoric human beings, and it lingered into the 19th century in some isolated South Pacific cultures, notably in Fiji. But today the Korowai are among the very few tribes believed to eat human flesh. They live about 100 miles inland from the Arafura Sea, which is where Michael Rockefeller, a son of then-New York governor Nelson Rockefeller, disappeared in 1961 while collecting artifacts from another Papuan tribe; his body was never found. Most Korowai still live with little knowledge of the world beyond their homelands and frequently feud with one another. Some are said to kill and eat male witches they call khakhua.
The island of New Guinea, the second largest in the world after Greenland, is a mountainous, sparsely populated tropical landmass divided between two countries: the independent nation of Papua New Guinea in the east, and the Indonesian provinces of Papua and West Irian Jaya in the west. The Korowai live in southeastern Papua.
My journey begins at Bali, where I catch a flight across the Banda Sea to the Papuan town of Timika; an American mining company's subsidiary, PT Freeport Indonesia, operates the world's largest copper and gold mine nearby. The Free Papua Movement, which consists of a few hundred rebels equipped with bows and arrows, has been fighting for independence from Indonesia since 1964. Because Indonesia has banned foreign journalists from visiting the province, I entered as a tourist.
After a stopover in Timika, our jet climbs above a swampy marsh past the airport and heads toward a high mountain. Beyond the coast, the sheer slopes rise as high as 16,500 feet above sea level and stretch for 400 miles. Waiting for me at Jayapura, a city of 200,000 on the northern coast near the border with Papua New Guinea, is Kembaren, 46, a Sumatran who came to Papua seeking adventure 16 years ago. He first visited the Korowai in 1993, and has come to know much about their culture, including some of their language. He is clad in khaki shorts and trekking boots, and his unflinching gaze and rock-hard jaw give him the look of a drill sergeant.
The best estimate is that there are some 4,000 Korowai. Traditionally, they have lived in treehouses, in groups of a dozen or so people in scattered clearings in the jungle; their attachment to their treehouses and surrounding land lies at the core of their identity, Smithsonian Institution anthropologist Paul Taylor noted in his 1994 documentary film about them, Lords of the Garden. Over the past few decades, however, some Korowai have moved to settlements established by Dutch missionaries, and in more recent years, some tourists have ventured into Korowai lands. But the deeper into the rain forest one goes, the less exposure the Korowai have had to cultures alien to their own.
After we fly from Jayapura southwest to Wamena, a jumping-off point in the Papuan highlands, a wiry young Korowai approaches us. In Bahasa Indonesia, he says that his name is Boas and that two years ago, eager to see life beyond his treehouse, he hitched a ride on a charter flight from Yaniruma, a settlement at the edge of Korowai territory. He has tried to return home, he says, but no one will take him. Boas says a returning guide has told him that his father was so upset by his son's absence that he has twice burned down his own treehouse. We tell him he can come with us.
The next morning eight of us board a chartered Twin Otter, a workhorse whose short takeoff and landing ability will get us to Yaniruma. Once we're airborne, Kembaren shows me a map: spidery lines marking lowland rivers and thousands of square miles of green jungle. Dutch missionaries who came to convert the Korowai in the late 1970s called it "the hell in the south."
After 90 minutes we come in low, following the snaking Ndeiram Kabur River. In the jungle below, Boas spots his father's treehouse, which seems impossibly high off the ground, like the nest of a giant bird. Boas, who wears a daisy-yellow bonnet, a souvenir of "civilization," hugs me in gratitude, and tears trickle down his cheeks.
At Yaniruma, a line of stilt huts that Dutch missionaries established in 1979, we thump down on a dirt strip carved out of the jungle. Now, to my surprise, Boas says he will postpone his homecoming to continue with us, lured by the promise of adventure with a laleo, and he cheerfully lifts a sack of foodstuffs onto his shoulders. As the pilot hurls the Twin Otter back into the sky, a dozen Korowai men hoist our packs and supplies and trudge toward the jungle in single file bound for the river. Most carry bows and arrows.
The Rev. Johannes Veldhuizen, a Dutch missionary with the Mission of the Reformed Churches, first made contact with the Korowai in 1978 and dropped plans to convert them to Christianity. "A very powerful mountain god warned the Korowai that their world would be destroyed by an earthquake if outsiders came into their land to change their customs," he told me by phone from the Netherlands a few years ago. "So we went as guests, rather than as conquerors, and never put any pressure on the Korowai to change their ways." The Rev. Gerrit van Enk, another Dutch missionary and co-author of The Korowai of Irian Jaya, coined the term "pacification line" for the imaginary border separating Korowai clans accustomed to outsiders from those farther north. In a separate phone interview from the Netherlands, he told me that he had never gone beyond the pacification line because of possible danger from Korowai clans there hostile to the presence of laleo in their territory.

Teen's Westminster wishes fulfilled, for now
But Henson, a Brookfield resident, hopes to try again next year
The lights were shining brightly on Cameron Henson.
He was on the floor of one of the world's most famous arenas, Madison Square Garden, and in the United States' largest city, New York City, for the 2012 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.
At just 15, Henson could have been intimidated.
He wasn't.
"I had a lot of fun," he said. "I didn't let it get to my head."
And why should he? The Catholic Memorial High School freshman is an experienced handler.
So when it was his turn to bring out Daisy, his 3-year-old Beagle, the Brookfield resident showed all in attendance and everyone watching on national television last week why he's one of the better dog handlers in the country.
"It was a little different from regular shows, but I told myself that it really wasn't that different of a showing, because there's still my dog and the judge, so I just took it step by step," he said.
A true love of competing
Henson used this approach to advance to the finals and was one of eight preliminary winners out of the original field of 111 fighting for the Junior Showmanship title at the 136th Westminster Dog Show.
"When the judge pointed at me, I thought they were cutting it down," Henson said. "But he pulled me out and told me I was a finalist. I couldn't believe it. I didn't realize it at the time, how big of an accomplishment it was. It didn't strike me at first."
While he didn't take home the top prize, Henson won a $500 scholarship for besting more than 100 of his competitors.
The winner, Ania Gabrielle Kelly, took home $6,000. Second place earned $5,000, while third won $4,000 and fourth $3,000.
What was the key to Henson's success in the Big Apple?
"I think the first thing, like anybody that's great at something, is that he loves doing it," his mother, Lindley, said. "And nothing bothers him. Competing at Westminster was just like competing at West Bend. He goes out there and puts out his best performance no matter what show.
"Judges see the dog, but you don't see what (Cameron's) doing. He wants people to look at the dog, not the handler, and many judges say the best handler is invisible."
Success comes swiftly
His accomplishments have certainly not been invisible - he has a slew of ribbons.
In 2011, he competed in 85 shows and took first in class in 26. In 13 of them he was the best junior handler. He also had the No. 2 beagle and No. 8 hound in Junior Show and was 34th in Junior Show for the all-around category.
In addition to Best Junior wins in five other states, he has won Best Junior at almost every dog show in Wisconsin.
These results throughout the year helped him qualify for Westminster, as participants - ages 9 to 18 - must have won 10 or more firsts at American Kennel Club-licensed shows between Nov. 1, 2010, and Oct. 31, 2011.
Overall, he has accumulated more than $3,000 in scholarship money since he started competing when he was 10.
His recent accolades shouldn't come as a surprise; he has been a natural since day one.
In his first show at the International Kennel Club of Chicago in 2007, he was second in his class. Since then he has signed up for just about every dog competition he could find.
It appears that an affinity for dogs runs in the family.
Henson's grandparents bred Pembroke Welsh Corgis. Henson's mother, who breeds Petit Basset Griffon Vendeens, is the former president of the Waukesha Kennel Club and is the vice president of the Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen Club of America.
Hooked on shows
"He's been going to dog shows since before he was born, because I have pictures when I'm pregnant (with him) at the 1996 Waukesha Dog Show," Lindley said.
Her son was at one of her shows five years ago and became hooked on it.
"We were setting up for the Waukesha Kennel Club and one of the handlers asked Cam if he wanted to help him," Lindley recalled. "He did and has been working very hard at it. Five years have gone fast."
Since then, Henson has been working with the Kipp family, who own the Huntwood Kennel in Union Grove. Henson says Susan Kipp has been his coach, and her daughter, Dylan, also has taught him a lot about showing dogs.
"(Dylan's) helped me with everything," Henson said. "We're like one big family."
And that family includes Daisy.
"We're really close," Henson said of the family pet. "She's special. She's a champion."
To win at next year's Westminster Dog Show would take year-round dedication.
"I think I'll be able to accomplish that feat," he said with confidence.
If he does, he'll hope to have a bigger cheering section.
Henson's grandmother was able to see her grandson at the Westminster show, but his mother, couldn't because she is recovering from surgery due to her breast cancer.
Although almost 900 miles separated them, Lindley was watching every step of the way.
"We're so excited," Lindley said. "I had friends texting me pictures the entire time. I could go on and on as the proud mom."

Good Sam RV Travel Guide & Campground Directory
Good Sam Camping App
Aiken, South Carolina
By Lisa Halvorsen
This historic winter escape now boasts year-round attractions in "Thoroughbred Country"
Attracting visitors year-round, Aiken, South Carolina, offers the sublime complement of agreeable climate with many attractions. This western South Carolina city is also known throughout the world as "Horse Country," for its excellent thoroughbred racehorse training facilities producing such champions as 1990 Preakness winner Summer Squall and 1993 Kentucky Derby winner Sea Hero. It also claims a place in history as the site of one of the last Civil War battles.
On Saturday mornings, a two-hour guided tour of the city is offered on the Aiken Trolley. The tour departs from the Washington Center for the Performing Arts at 10 a.m. and provides a good orientation to the area's history, equestrian sites and attractions. At the visitor's center, you can pick up a map for a self-guided tour of Aiken that focuses on the historic architecture, from shotgun houses and mansions with names like The Nook, Chinaberry, and Let's Pretend, to historic schools, churches and public buildings. The map also shows the locations of horse racing tracks and Hitchcock Woods, considered one of the largest urban forests in the country. .
Before setting off to explore on your own, be aware that certain roads – primarily the dirt roads in the horse district – are off-limits to large vehicles because these roads are used to train horses. You can obtain information about vehicle restrictions at the visitor's center.
In the 1800s, Aiken became a popular destination for Charleston residents escaping the hot, humid summers with their threat of malaria. In the post-Civil War years, some of the country's wealthiest families – among them the Vanderbilts, Cabots and Whitneys – discovered Aiken, turning it into their winter playground.
America's social elite built grand mansions that were referred to as their "winter cottages." These estates had elaborate gardens, beautifully landscaped grounds, and later – when the families brought horses with them – stables and polo fields. Included among these estates was Rose Hill, the first property in Aiken to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Today most of the homes that were part of the "Winter Colony" are privately owned and not open to the public. However, a few houses and places, like Hopelands Gardens and Hitchcock Woods, do welcome visitors.
Banksia, a 32-room Victorian mansion named for the banksia rose, now houses the Aiken County Historical Museum, which fills three floors of the mansion. Here you will learn about the history of Aiken County, beginning with the first European settlers. Other exhibits focus on the area's plant and animal species, and geology.
Outside you can visit the China Springs one-room schoolhouse (circa 1890), the Ergle log cabin (circa 1808) and the remains of an observatory. The latter was built in the late 1880s to view the Transit of Venus, a rare astronomical phenomenon during which the planet Venus crosses in front of the sun.
Another of the grand cottages is Rye Patch, today a popular spot for weddings and other catered functions. Named after a local carriage restorer, the Clifford S. Gerde Carriage Museum, on the grounds, displays several vintage carriages, buggies and surreys, including an 1890 buckboard phaeton and a 1900 three-seat surrey.
Hopelands Gardens was once part of the winter estate of C. Oliver Iselin and his wife, Hope, who was known as the "the great lady of racing." In addition to horses, she was interested in horticulture and developed lovely gardens on their property. When she died in 1970, at the age of 102, she bequeathed her home and gardens to the city.
The 14-acre garden, located adjacent to Rye Patch, showcases many plant species found in the South, including camellias, azaleas and 100-year-old live oaks. It's also the site of free concerts and performances throughout the summer, so check to see what's scheduled during your visit.
The Thoroughbred Racing Hall of Fame, housed in a historic carriage house in Hopelands Gardens, features photographs, racing silks and other memorabilia relating to champion thoroughbred flat racers and steeplechase horses that were trained locally. Admission is free.
If interested in horses, you might want to watch a polo match. The sport has been played here since 1892, not long after it was first introduced in America, making Aiken a U.S. polo capital both then and now.
If visiting in March, plan to attend the Aiken Triple Crown. This premiere occasion features three weekend events – the Aiken Trials (horse races), the steeplechase and polo, along with related activities.
The Aiken area also offers a number of natural sites that provide opportunities for outdoor recreation, including horseback riding, hiking and birding. One of the most popular is Hitchcock Woods. This 2000-acre parcel was set aside for preservation in the early 1900s by William C. Whitney, a prominent thoroughbred horse breeder and Secretary of the Navy under President Grover Cleveland.
You can also walk the trails and observe wildlife at the Carolina Bay Nature Reserve, a natural wetland within city limits. Another option is the floating boardwalk through the marsh at the Wetlands for glimpses of turtles, fish and waterfowl.
Birders will find the National Audubon Society's Silver Bluff Center and Plantation in nearby Jackson an ideal spot for bird watching. The 3145-acre wildlife sanctuary is home to the endangered wood stork, bald eagles and more than 200 other bird species. Deer, armadillos and alligators can also be seen at Silver Bluff.
Be sure to also check out the ongoing archaeological dig site of an 18th-century trading post and fortified home. You can canoe or kayak here on the Savannah River, or visit the Aiken State Natural Area in Windsor for an easy paddle along the 1.7-mile canoe trail on the South Fork Edisto River, which meanders through the park.
For a look at the night skies and to learn more about the solar system, visit the DuPont Planetarium at the Ruth Patrick Science Education Center on the University of South Carolina — Aiken campus. Programs for the public are scheduled for the first and third Friday and Saturday of each month.
Aiken also has an interesting Civil War heritage. It was the site of one of the final battles and one of the last victories for the Confederate Army. The Battle of Aiken, which occurred on February 11, 1865, is re-enacted every February at Confederate Park just north of Aiken, near the site of the original battle. Spectators are welcome.
After visiting the city of Aiken, take in some of the sights in the County, also named Aiken. Several special events are held throughout the year at the Living History Park in North Augusta, providing hands-on experiences to introduce visitors to the area's history, people and events. Open for touring are the meeting house, 18th-Century tavern, slave cabin and other historic buildings.
At Redcliffe Plantation State Historic Site in Beech Island, visitors can explore the property that had once belonged to James Henry Hammond, a South Carolina senator and wealthy plantation owner. In addition to touring the Greek Revival antebellum home built in 1859, you can visit the preserved slave quarters and heirloom gardens.
To learn more about Beech Island, one of the state's oldest settlements, visit the Beech Island Historical Society visitors and history center. You also might want to stop for a tour or wine-tasting at the family-owned Montmorenci Vineyards in Aiken or Valentine Sagefield Vineyards in Jackson.
Whether you are interested in history or horses, the night skies or nature, Aiken has what you are looking for, much as it did more than a century ago when many of the country's most affluent families made it their second home.

Longing for Passovers and Memories Missed: Pesach 5770 (2010)
At Monday night's Passover Seder we used hard-covered, bound copies of a Haggadah with a copyright date of 1923. The first user of the book — a relative or friend of our host family — had carefully inscribed his name on the inside cover.
In the many years since my conversion from Roman Catholicism to Judaism, I've used a variety of Haggadot but none like the one we used last night.
Some of them were faded blue, mimeographed copies, dog-eared and stained with wine and brisket gravy. Others were stapled and patched together with cracking glue and brittle cellophane that incorporated feminist interpretations. A few years ago, we enjoyed the company of a blind guest at our Seder. She used a Braille Haggadah in Hebrew. When it was her turn to read, she simultaneously translated the text into English. Amazing.
Reading from an almost 90 year-old Haggadah, with the name of the octogenarian sitting next to me written in childlike cursive on the inside cover, was an extraordinary experience. It struck me that he had been Jewish 60 years longer than I had been. It filled me with a deep longing for the Passovers and memories I'd missed. At the same time, I felt tremendous gratitude for the spiritual home I'd finally found.
Celebration of Passover is a biblical command for all Jews worldwide to come together as a community to singularly and collectively remember: What the Eternal One did for me when I came out from Egypt. At Passover, I am — along with the ancient Israelites enslaved in Egypt. I am with them redeemed from bondage, and I am promised the care and love the Eternal One blessed be He.
Growing up in a large observant Roman Catholic family, I often felt spiritually displaced. Praying and having a relationship with G-d was always important to me, but I struggled with how to do it within the structure of my birth-religion. The idea of Christ and His divinity got in the way of the personal relationship I wanted to have with G-d.
Holy Week was the only time I felt intimacy and safety with Christ. And then it was as a supremely saintly man who modeled how we are to have a relationship with G-d. Holy Week was the only time Christ became real. From His ride into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday to the Passover dinner with His disciples, the Stations, and His death on the Cross on Good Friday, I felt comfortable with Christ.
Now that I have found my spiritual home in Judaism, I no longer struggle with Christ. I understand Christ and His teachings from a Jewish perspective. I see Him as a wise and holy Rabbi falsely accused and killed by the Romans like another of our other Jewish saints, Rabbi Akiva.
I am grateful to have found Judaism and the community to which I can belong. I am no longer in Diaspora… I am home.

The San Rafael Pro Rodeo is gearing up for July 29, 30 and 31 in Castle Dale. Performances begin at 7:30 p.m. each evening. Scott Cameron is back by popular demand and will perform with his man eating chicken. Scott will entertain all three nights of the rodeo. Scott and his horse Saturday Nite Racket will perform for the crowd. Saturday Nite Racket is not fast, tall or pretty, but he's still a pretty good horse. He does have a little problem with his front foot which can be fixed in no time. All Scott has to do is knock him out and trim him back a little with a chainsaw. When Scott gets him fitted with some high speed running shoes he'll be good as new. Scott and Racket are sure to bring a few good laughs from the crowd. Scott also has a diving board act with a "chigger."
Scott is extremely funny and his rodeo humor is fresh and new each evening as he can't remember the jokes he told the night before. Scott is a tremendous barrel man and cowboy protecting machine.
Troy Lerwill will jump a truck and trailer on his motorcycle in true Evel Knievel style and land in the dirt arena. Troy will perform each evening at the rodeo.
A horse colt will be given away during the Thursday night performance. This colt is donated by the Castle Valley ranch and the lucky winner will be pulled from the ticket stubs. So hang onto your ticket stub for your lucky number and you could just leave the rodeo with a horse of your own.
The San Rafael Pro Rodeo is in its sixth year and the Desertview Federal Credit Union is proud to sponsor the rodeo this year.
An event you won't want to miss is the wild cow milking contest. Contestants compete for cash each evening and winners in the all-around will each take home a belt buckle. Local cowboys wishing to sign up can call the recreation district at 381-2108. There are eight teams that compete in this event and sometimes on Saturday night a couple of wild card teams get out in the arena to add to the confusion.
Tickets for the rodeo are available at all the usual outlets and there is a discount on tickets if purchased in advance.

No More Hairy Chinny, Chin, Chin!Finally, no hair on my face. One of the embarrassing parts of aging is growing hair where you don't need it or want it. I've tried paying for waxing, but my beard grows so quickly that I needed to have my chin waxed more than once a month. I started doing the waxing myself which worked for a while, until I ended up with chunks of sticky wax on my chin - MOST UNPLEASANT! I decided to try the epilator, despite being concerned about the pain. So far, I've ONLY used it on my face. You don't use it as you do a shaver. Instead, you go after each individual whisker. It feels like you're being stung by a bee. Annoying but not unbearable! The best part is I no longer spend most of my interactions with people rubbing my chin! I figure using this on my legs will be a piece of cake!Feb 14, 2013Barb R. / Denver, Colorado

Good ProductGood on larger areas such as legs, less suitable for underarms, a bit too large in shape for it. It does plug well even longer hairs. I like that it runs on batteries, hence can be used anywhere (dry!).Dec 12, 2012Ilona / Canada

Awesome Product!I recently purchased this product and absolutely love the results. The product works better than anything I have ever tried before!
I have dark thick (beard like) hair on my chin and it is beyond emberassing. It took me maybe 5 minutes (if that long) and the hair was gone and my skin was smoother than it has been in years!
In the past I have used the tweeze and it took me a good 20 minutes to remove the hair and i still had to use tweezers.
I am hoping for long lasting results, but even if it doesnt last long, it removes it fast and thats perfect for me!Jun 13, 2012LeanneHAIR TYPEBlack / Thick or Coarse Hair

Better Than My Electric EpilatorI have been using an electric epilator for a couple of years now and have loved it. I was looking for a battery operated one so I can use it anywhere without having to worry about looking for an outlet. I was not expecting too much from this unit because I thought that battery power would not be as strong as electric. Boy was I wrong. This epilator works better than my old electric one. It is made well to fit in the hand easily and has two settings. I was also surprised that it did not cause me pain as my electric one still does. This unit glides on the skin making it super easy to use. It has a good weight to it when the batteries are put in and cleaing the unit is easy. I really love this epilator more than my old one.May 16, 2012Maryann / Indianapolis, INHAIR TYPELight Brown / Dry Hair / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Smooth & Painless!!!This is my 1st epilator; I have been afraid of them due to the horror stories that I have heard. I have to tell you that I was MOST SURPRISED with the results of Emjoi Divine Battery Epilator! WOW! Not only did it do a great job of removing hair from my chin, upper lip & bikini line - it was painless (& I am a BIG BABY!!!!) Tweazing & waxing is MUCH MORE unpleasant than the epilator process! I have used this only once - so I can't report on the long lasting effect of it yet, but just had to let all of you know - THERE IS NO LONGER FEAR IN THE EPILATOR WORLD - THANKS TO THE EMJOI DIVINE BATTERY EPILATOR!!!! Oh, I almost forgot... THE PRICE!!!! $29.99!!!! and I bought it when they had $10.00 off all products... $19.99 try that for a wonderful epilator!!!! BEST MONEY I HAVE EVER SPENT!!!! Thank you Emjoi & thank you Folica!!!May 11, 2012Celindy K. / Atlanta, GA

Best Purchase Of 2012I know it's Only April, but I bought this and I couldn't be happier. So easy to use, Haven't used it in a week and I don't need to. Don't get me wrong ladies it does hurt at very first, but after a second or two it stops. You get used to it, but I also have a high pain threshold, just FYI. I also have a lot of coarse hair, so my very first time using it, I was at it for a while. Like maybe an hour+, because I wanted to make sure I got every hair. I did both of my under arms and my bikini line. I had to try again the next day, because I was afraid my skin would get irritated, but I had no problem there. Just make sure you exfoliate in the shower before and/or after if you feel like it. But definitely worth the purchase if you like to be hairless, like me and don't want to visit a spa every 3 weeks. :)Apr 13, 2012Kris / NOLAHAIR TYPENormal Hair

Many gamers have labeled Star Wars: The Old Republic a "singleplayer RPG", but is this truly a fair criticism? What's the larger issue here? We discuss it all in this week's SWTOR column!
Unfortunately, one sort of comment has been nagging at me for going on two years now and I really can't ignore it (or the subject) any longer. It goes something like this:"Star Wars: The Old Republic is a singleplayer RPG."
There are a ton of variations on this comment, but it's pretty much used both in context when responding to threads about grouping or just as a catch-all criticism about the game whenever someone feels it's deemed appropriate.

Good article. I fully agree with you on all points. Some people just love to be nay sayers.
I only joined groups for flashpoints. if i came up to a 2+ 3+ or 5player or flashpoint i could just stand thier for like 5 min at launch and some random would invite me and we would beat it. I had no reason to lvl with somone else, it was actually less experience for me to go trew the questing areas as a team. At the end of reaching lvl 50 it was just about grinding gear. I gave up after i got my champion set. I had no intrest to grin fleet gear, since there was no real good explination of which I started at first or how to get good enough gear by grinding daileys solo to get the world medals to get the gear. Sorry but untill you can fleet or when if at all you want a flashpoint which is not necessary it is a single player mmo with multiplayer optional.
The problem with this game is not grouping though, it's the game itself.
I love playing solo and queueing up for group content when I want to do that type of content but even now with the dungeon finder I still don't feel the draw to play this game anymore. I've unsubbed now while too because of that reason.
Nice article, good points, bad game.
Moving around the world was a series of loading screens and corridors, this for me really took away any massively multiplayer feeling from it, everything was an instance and when you were in there you were on your own most of the time apart from on planet surface and on main fleet. Space should have been open to fly around in rather than another single player activity.
It's not a single player game but it's a co-op RPG its not an MMO just because it has hubs you can actually meet other players in.
Today's epic /popcorn thread brought to you by MMORPG.com's very own MikeB.
I agree, Mike. Just because the game doesn't force you to group doesn't mean its SP. Grouping is still fun, just like in other games. It still broadens the experience, just like the other games. It still builds friendships, just like the other games. And it still isn't required to get a "nearly full" experience of the game, just like the other games.
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil
SWToR isn't a SP rpg but it would have been better of if it was, the MMO part does nothing but detract from the main point of the entire game IE the story.
I feel like this is a console game that just happens to work on PCs. Calling this a MMO is like calling a politician honest.
SWTOR to me is more SP-RPG than mmorpg. I do not see a reason to pay a sub fee for a game that offers you an okay levelling experience and then an endgame that frankly wow/rift/eq2 does better.
The problem is not in which systems a game uses, but HOW it uses them. The problem with SW:TOR for me was that it had more single-player instanced content than any other MMO I've ever played. And that was mainly due to the need to deliver a coherent personal story.
And because story was a central pillar of the game, it HAD to take you out of the common game world to deliver that story to YOU. But the side-effect of this is that people remember the story parts of the game more than the general play.
They may have only spent 25% of their time ingame in story instances, but that experience is remembered far more clearly than the dozens of hours spent in open world play.

I agree the game shouldn't have a sub, but a sub does not an MMO make.

The game CAN be an MMO, it just lends itself more to a single player RPG experience. Seriously. Imagine this: take away the sub fee and other players, sell the game as a single player RPG on consoles and boom, it's the next Kotor. It just "feels" like a single player RPG. Now, it needs a ton of MMO aspects patched in to get away from this feeling, and they are slowly, oh so slowly doing that with LFG finder, legacy system, upcoming dual specs and hopefully at some point, better achievement system, housing, collections, and so forth. Until then though, I feel like I'm loading up a single player RPG every time I play.
I recently subbed again and my friend and I really are enjoying grouping through all the content. The main issue i have is story missions dont meld well in a group environment, other than that, good fun.

In all fairness though, even if I enjoy both games, GW2 has loading screens and is plenty instanced as well from my experience in the latest Beta weekend. Yet no one seems to complain there. Granted, I guess the zones aren't as... corridored.. Which I agree with is a major problem in TOR.
Bravo Michael. I completely agree with all your points. This game gets way too much hate on these boards. SWG was also my first MMORPG love.
Definitely good points raised in the article and I even agree with most of them. I wish I could put my finger on why SWTOR disappointed me so much -- I think it was only the lack of complexity of game play and the fact that only 2 of the 4 base classes were interesting to me. I wouldn't have minded seeing a bit more of the story but was too bored with the other two classes to persist.
I don't play SWTOR anymore but i agree with you on that, SWTOR has a lot more grouping and incentive to group leveling up than WoW does. Zone chat had requests for groups all the time which never happens in other MMOs anymore, most others have some automatic dungeon queue and that's it for grouping.
Nice article. I agree with the points you mention. I also believe history will be much kinder to TOR as it was to GW1 and many others that received a lot of ire at launch. Personally, I grouped more in TOR than I did with WoW, Rift, CoH and many others.
Calling SWTOR a singleplayer RPG is just a comment on how bad it is as a MMORPG.

I don't think that anyone, or at least most people, who call SWTOR an SPRPG means it literally. It's just hyperbole to make a point. We all know that SWTOR is technically an MMORPG.
The problem is that it seems like 80% of the development effort in SWTOR went into stuff that is almost best experienced by a single player. It's no secret that the story, questing, and VO are the main selling points of SWTOR, and where most of the dev effort went. But all these things are kind of a pain to experience cooperatively.
Unless you are at the exact same point in questing as another player, you'll always run into the issue of "Oh, I already did that quest" or "I still have more to do in that quest chain."
Couple this with the extreme instancing and lack of any interesting social hubs, and the game really seems to fall flat in the MMO department. That is why people call it an SPRPG.
Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob?
It's our fault that it's single player, EA and Bio say so. We have no excuses, we should have made it differently.

I have a split entry house with two bathrooms...one up and one down. I began to have trouble with the water pressure. At first, the pressure had a large increase. After time, the hot and cold water pressure decreased to a trickle. We had the pressure regulator changed and also a washer in the shut off valve on the cold water pipe leading to the hot water tank. The pressure seemed normal for a brief time (until the plumber left). Then, the cold water pressure remained, but the hot water was/is erratic. The only way to get the pressure back is to turn on the cold water first, then the hot water at the laundry tubs in the basement (a few feet away from the hot water heater), then, the pipes bang a little and we get the pressure back in the whole house. (The downstairs bathroom pressure is also affected until we do this)
Any suggestions?

Chapter 18
Elijah is sent to meet Ahab—Obadiah saves a hundred prophets and meets Elijah—Elijah challenges the prophets of Baal to call down fire from heaven—They fail—He calls down fire, slays the prophets of Baal, and opens the heavens for rain.
1 And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the Lord came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.
2 And Elijah went to shew himself unto Ahab. And there was a sore famine in Samaria.
3 And Ahab called Obadiah, which was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah
4 For it was so, when
5 And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go into the land, unto all fountains of water, and unto all brooks: peradventure we may find grass to save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts.
6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.
7 ¶And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou that my lord Elijah?
8 And he answered him, I am: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.
9 And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me?
10 As the Lord thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not.
11 And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.
12 And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of the Lord shall
13 Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel
14 And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he shall slay me.
15 And Elijah said, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely shew myself unto him to day.
16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him: and Ahab went to meet Elijah.
17 ¶And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that
18 And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have

21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between
22 Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the Lord; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
23 Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:
24 And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.
25 And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your
26 And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.
27 And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is
28 And they cried aloud, and
29 And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded.

31 And Elijah took
32 And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the Lord: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.
33 And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four
34 And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.
35 And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.
36 And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the

39 And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The Lord, he is the God; the Lord, he is the God.
40 And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there.
41 ¶And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain.
42 So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees,
43 And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times.
44 And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not.
45 And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.

We describe some perspectives on corporate social responsibility (CSR), in order to provide a context for considering the strategic motivations and implications of CSR. Based on this framework, which is based on characterizing optimal firm decision making and underlies most existing work on CSR, we propose an agenda for further theoretical and empirical research on CSR. We then summarize and relate the articles in this special issue to the proposed agenda.

By COREY BLUEMELStaff Writer
Acting Mayor Dennis Jones opened the meeting by welcoming an Elmo resident, Cort Jensen, to the regular monthly meeting of the Elmo Town Council. Jensen requested the approval of an Eagle Scout project he has been considering. His idea is to replace and repair the street signs in Elmo.
Councilman Kirt Rasmussen stated there are approximately 11 street signs missing from street corners in town. There are several where the sign is gone or the post is bent. He has been in contact with a sign company and investigated the cost of purchasing the needed signs and there is enough money in the road fund to cover the cost of the supplies. Rasmussen stated that he felt this was a good project because its completion would help Elmo come into compliance with the new Emery County addressing ordinance that was recently enacted.
Following specific discussion of what signs are missing and the needed list of materials for the completion of the project, the council approved this project for Jensen to work on for his Eagle Scout project. Jensen was then given instructions to inventory the exact needs for the signage.
Jones read a letter from Brock Johansen, the attorney who represents the town when needed, stating that Johansen has returned to Emery County to reside, and was asking that a new contract be signed for his services. The council approved to resign a contract with Johansen for legal services.
Jones informed the council of the training for town officials that are held throughout the year. He urged them to strongly consider which training they could attend. These trainings will be especially important following the elections for those newly elected officers also.
The progress of the fire station project is waiting for the return of plans by a contractor. When the estimates are received, the council will have a better idea where the project should be cut back. The council stated that the size of the project will need to be trimmed. Rasmussen read a letter that he has written in response to USDA and the grant that has been awarded for the fire station project. The letter was an update of the progress of the project. A representative of the USDA is coming in October to review the site and plans for the project.
Councilman Bill Reed opened a discussion concerning an employee for the town. He stated that in his opinion, contracting services from individual workers for specific duties in town is not proving to be efficient. Since the town's only employee resigned to take other employment, the duties have been hired out to contractors. So far, the only job that has been bid on is the maintenance of the park and cemetery. No one has stepped forward with a bid for reading the meters, or other duties that have been advertised. The council approved to have town clerk Delena Fish do a comparison study of the amount being paid out to individual contractors and the amount that it would require to hire an employee.
Jones announced that the curb and gutter projects that have been ongoing in Elmo this summer are nearly complete. The construction crew has several small items to finish up before it is finished.
After one resident voiced concern about a sign that is missing from the DUP building, the meeting adjourned. The next Elmo Town Council meeting will be Oct. 25 at 7:30 p.m. in the Elmo Library.

Anyway, back to the latest chapter, I liked it but felt yet again that pain of not getting what I want - a conclusion. Every week for the past month, I've been thinking, "Deidara's finally going to die!" only to be disappointed. It's not a big disappointment, but it's there.
Nonetheless, the chapters are good. I can't wait to see what Tobi does, after Deidara's dead, and when in a fight.

text: The average vegetable or fruit consumed in the United States travels almost 1,500 miles before it reaches someone's dinner table. And in winter the fresh produce travel-time really ramps up. In New England, eating during the winter can often mean buying produce grown as far away as California, South America or even Israel. to bring the winter eating experience closer to home, some Massachusetts farmers have started using a new winter distribution system.

Gospel Reading
Document Actions
Sunday of the 7th Ecumenical Council
The Gospel according to Luke 8:5-15
The Lord said this parable: "A sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell along the path, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it. And some fell on the rock; and as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns grew with it and choked it. And some fell into good soil and grew, and yielded a hundredfold." And when his disciples asked him what this parable meant, he said, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God; but for others they are in parables, so that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand. Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. The ones along the path are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, that they may not believe and be saved. And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy; but these have no root, they believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away. And as for what fell among the thorns, they are those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not mature. And as for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bring forth fruit with patience." As he said these things, he cried out "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

Good morning, Audrey! How have you been? How are you dealing with leaving your job? How is Mariposita? Have you heard from Larry? Najla and I haven't heard from him in a while and we thought that he may be having surgery on his knee or something else.

Cardstyle Find #102: Family Circus
With summer vacation in full swing, many family reunions are being held across the country. I've never been much of a fan of the cliche family reunion shirts I've seen, but when I came across these options from Kin, I was sold. They're understated and give a great sense of family history; I think they'd be the perfect addition to a reunion this summer.

For runners seeking a near barefoot experience, the Inov-8 Bare-X Lite 150 features no cushioning and an extra-firm ride.
The Inov8 Bare-X Lite 150 is the lightest shoe to date in the Inov8 road line. For those who want a minimal shoe but still need some comfort under their feet, this barely-there shoe has a thin midsole to give just a hint of cushioning and protection on the road. The 0mm heel-to-toe drop brings feet level with the ground to encourage forefoot striking, and the ultra flexible outsole will bend any way your foot can, keeping you well connected to the road.
Model Number:
Weight: 6.1 oz (size 9)
Stack Height: Heel (7mm), Forefoot (7mm)
Available Widths: D=Medium
How It Fits (based on width D)
The Bare-X Lite 150 is a minimum feature, minimum neutral trail shoe designed for road racing.
Comments: Very light, responsive, and comfortable. Toe box is wider than other inov-8s, and stretchy like other inov-8s. The lace system and the shape really offers a snug fit! It feels like it has more cushioning than the F-lite 230. Great to bring along on your trips.
From: Ed, Santa Clara, CA, USA
Comments: Stiff during first few runs. The midsole then "broke in" and the ride is very comfortable. This is not a forgiving shoe, but very comfortable and light feeling. So far the sole is not showing undue wear, which I find remarkable given the lack of rubber underneath.
From: Brad, Charlotte, NC, USA
Comments: Love the X Lite 150s. This is the perfect shoe for doing triathlons for a minimalist runner. The first 1/4 of mile is usually a bit rough for me until I get my stride right, but then they are just a pleasure to run in. I received mine on a Friday and ran my triathlon in them the next day. This did break the "don't try anything new" rule, but these shoes fit so well. I have to reiterate Chas's comments about how quiet this shoe is to run in. I have since bought the 195s and 233s and love all of them. Inov 8 is quickly becoming my go to brand.

Comments: Best zero drop shoes I have tried to date. Far better (and faster) than the NB Minimus Zero. Just the right balance of road feel and protection for pavement. You can really crank on these when you need to drop the hammer, but can sit back with a nice tempo as well. The shoe will tell you how you are striking but won't punish you too much. Note that my first two runs in them were miserable due to shoe break-in issues related to the plastic/glue that holds the laces against the sides of the shoe; I even developed a red tender area where this area on the shoe was contacting the outside of my foot. Thankfully, it just required a little bit of break in to resolve. The laces, by the way, and the tongue design -- all work very well on this shoe. Hats off to Inov-8, which I think is making the best minimalist shoes these days. Can't wait to get something from the Trailroc series!

Comments: Took these X Lite 150s out of the box, on to my feet, out the door for a 19 mile test drive, AWESOME. I have been wearing the Lite 230s and love those too.

Comments: First impressions are nice lightness. Little stiffer and harder than anticipated. Heels are somewhat large and slip quite a bit. I find the Inov-8 Talons, one of their trails shoes to have a better fit and softer ride ironically.

Comments: There aren't enough great things I can say about this shoe. I got my first pair of Inov-8's a few weeks ago, and I have 4 different models now. This one may be my favorite out of them. It definitely will be my go-to shoe for 5k-10k road races, and triathlons if and when I get into those. I could see myself doing some longer distances as well with them. They are fantastic for speed work. Super light, great ground feel, superior breathe-ability, and easy on/off. I especially like not having to mess with tying laces. Also, these shoes are QUIET! Instead of the "thwack,thwack, thwack" I get from many other shoes, my footfalls in these sound like a whispery "pit, pat, pit, pat." Something about that appeals to me. I feel lighter and faster. If you are a minimalist runner with good form, add these to your collection. In a few weeks is the Leprechaun 8K in my town, and you know I will be rocking the green model of these there!

Comments: I like the low profile (zero drop) and the toe box, but the quick lacing system caused bruises on the the tops of both feet. I really hope that, given a little time, these shoes will break in and the fit will be more comfortable. I am tempted to reverse the lacing (top to bottom) or put some real laces in...
