Christopher Jenner appointed Eurostar creative director, Tue, 22 Oct 2013 | By Tom Banks
Interior designer Christopher Jenner commissioned Nick Garrett Signs to create the centrepiece gilded panel for Penhaligon perfumery store in Regent Street.
Chris has been appointed to the newly created position of Eurostar creative director. The appointment comes as the rail service is investing £700m in a new fleet.
The £700m investment will see newly refurbished trains delivered in 2014 and new trains in 2015, with interiors for both designed by Pininfarina.
A Eurostar spokesman says Jenner 'is up to speed' on all the fleet upgrades, which are already at the advanced stages of development.
'His work will be complementary and might feature in service design and customer experience but not the fabrics and interiors at this stage,' says the spokesman.
Christopher Jenner
Jenner is being engaged to look beyond the fleet upgrade and will focus on customer experience. He has been charged with bringing what he calls 'a fresh view and a design-led perspective' to new and existing projects across Eurostar's businesses.
Eurostar has a history of engaging designers and Jenner says his appointment is the 'latest chapter' in the rail service's development.
Jenner, who has worked with the likes of perfumers Diptyque and Penhaligon's, is known for creating bespoke opulent looks for his clients and often works with traditional craftsmen.
Penhaligon's Regent Street store concept by Christopher Jenner
Jenner says, 'All aspects of the Eurostar physical environment work together to bring our brand to life and our travellers demand and deserve the very best.
'We have some exciting projects in the pipeline, which will continue this tradition of innovation and excellence.'

Jada Pinkett Smith and her family were, thankfully, out of town when an overzealous fan decided to break into their home and have a look around, but the woman has been issued a restraining order and is on probation after the incident.
The Smiths are the latest celebrities to endure a home invasion after 26-year old Ariel Archer entered their home back in March and took a little tour. The family's maid came upon her in the kitchen and notified authorities, who arrested her on charges of trespassing. Archer pleaded no contest to the charge on Monday.
The restraining order will keep Archer from coming within 150 feet of the entire Smith family. Meanwhile, Jada Pinkett Smith has not commented on the intruder but spoke recently about how important her family is to her, saying she won't take on a project unless she knows they are taken care of first.
''My family is my priority. If my family is stable and everyone has what they need, then I look at a way to fit in a creative endeavour. There is no one way to do it! A woman needs to be deeply connected to herself and her family, and she has got to trust herself. It's about staying present and adjusting the formula which comes in a million forms. Trust takes courage--happiness takes courage; it's not easy!'' Smith said.
Jada seems like a woman you wouldn't want to mess with, especially when it comes to her children. She recently told Haute Living that her strength sometimes hinders her when it comes to roles, because she doesn't know how to play a woman who isn't strong.
"People tell me that I always play strong women. In all honestly that is probably where I am restricted in my creative pursuits. I have no idea how not to be strong, and I don't know if I have the desire to. I tend to gravitate towards strength energy lines," Jada Pinkett Smith said.

Identify the groups that most strongly opposed the New Deal.
- print Print
- list Cite
The group that most strongly opposed the New Deal was conservatives. They did so on ideological grounds. To true conservatives, the New Deal appeared to be a socialist program. To conservatives, it was clearly not the place of the government to intervene in the economy. Conservatives felt that programs like the AAA or NIRA or TVA constituted government planning of the economy instead of the free market system that conservatives prefer. Conservatives felt that government relief to unemployed people was redistribution of income meant to achieve the socialist vision of a society where everyone has equal wealth.
To be sure, there were critics of the New Deal on the left. Critics like Huey Long felt that the New Deal did not go far enough towards helping the poor. However, I would argue that it was conservatives who most strongly opposed the New Deal.

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. - The Orange County Expressway Authority doesn't want your money -- that is, if it isn't recognized by the U.S. government.
It happens on local toll roads all the time, the Expressway Authority said. Instead of paying, drivers dump all kinds of "funny money" into the change booths, like foreign money and tokens from Chuck E. Cheese, Fun Spot and a car wash.
The Expressway Authority is about to auction off about 750 pounds of everything but U.S. coins to the highest bidder.
Hundreds of bags lie behind safe doors because converting the foreign currency is not cost-effective. Banks won't take coins that are glued together that often jam the coin collectors.
It causes trouble for Karen Graham, a driver, when she comes through the tolls because her money doesn't register.
"And then you buzz going through there. I've gotten maybe $25 in tickets because of these things not working," Graham said.
It's happened to driver Chris Langford so many times, he just pays with a transponder.
"They can mess up the tolls for everyone else," he said with a laugh.
The Expressway Authority said they send toll violations to the people who try to pay the toll with the wrong currency.
If the driver is from out of town in a rental car, the rental car company is forced to pay the violation.

A Cautionary Tale
Ok, I'm talking about Florida and not Kansas and perhaps I could have called this "Alligators, Sharks, and Cardiologists, Oh My," but I needed to get someone's attention, especially since I haven't been able to get the attention of my patients who visit Florida every winter. And while I don't want anyone to mistake this essay as something from Mutual of Omaha I do wish many of you would think of the classic video of the thousands of wildebeest attempting to cross a river full of dangerous predators – with the wildebeest acting as the elderly patients migrating down to Florida for the winter and the lions and wild dogs as the carnivorous doctors looking for their prey.
It was an ordinary "Snow Bird" trip to Florida for Mr. Irving Schwartz (not his real name), an elderly Jewish fellow with heart disease, accompanied by his girlfriend. Prior to his departure, Irving got his usual warning from me: "Don't let the doctor do anything to you unless you call me first."
Every year, just before the winter storms hit up north, thousands of elderly patients make their way down to Florida. Many of these patients have lot of health issues and are in need of a doctor to care for them until they make the migration northward in the Spring. It's a boon to the ailing Florida economy, for the restaurants, markets, and also for the doctors. With the economy in a tailspin and a relative glut of physicians in some of these communities, some physicians await these naïve elderly patients to boost their income.
Irv had a heart attack years ago and as a consequence of this large MI, developed a rather large clot in the apex of the heart chamber. But aside from his medication, which includes the blood thinner Coumadin, and a bad stomach, which once caused some bleeding from his stomach a few years ago, Irv was feeling great. His last stress test, several years ago, was pretty good and because he remained active and had no symptoms, he never had another.
Irv likes to have a cardiologist when he runs down to Florida for the winter, "just in case", and to take his blood level for his Coumadin. But he made a big mistake when he didn't call me after the first visit with his new doctor (we'll call him Dr. Moe Howard), a doctor that was referred to him by a few of his friends. Dr. Moe told him he needed a nuclear stress test. Irv was told, "Don't worry about it your insurance will pay for it" and decided it might be a good idea to have it. I guess Irv forgot what I had repeatedly told him when he asked me why I didn't do a stress test on him every year like so many of his friends have, "there is no clinical indication for you to have a stress test other than your friend's cardiologist's need to drive a Mercedes Benz while I am fine with my Subaru." And I always reminded Irv that abnormal results sometimes lead to inappropriate and dangerous procedures, like an unnecessary cardiac angiogram.
But Irv figured, why argue with Dr. Howard. Irv did tell me that he checked Howard on the computer and did find that he was under criminal investigation in the past but that had to do with insider trading and nothing to do with the practice of medicine. So Dr Moe, who apparently works with his relative Dr. Shemp Howard, performed a stress test on Irv and, wouldn't you know, it was abnormal. Irv is an old man, has a previous heart attack and, although he had no symptoms, and didn't need the stress test was more than likely to have an abnormal study. And Irv got what the doctor ordered.
Dr. Howard apparently told Irv he was at risk of having a heart attack (what eighty-year-old with a previous heart attack isn't) and he recommended he have a cardiac angiogram as soon as possible — performed by Dr. Howard, of course.
I guess at that moment Irv must have heard a voice in his head, kind-of like the Obi-Wan Kenobi voice, "Irv, call me. Call me before you let a doctor down there do anything on you." And so Irv called my office. But the day Irv called was a day I was off playing with the kids, and wouldn't be back for a week, and Irv got too tempted, too worried, by the words of Dr. Moe Howard; Irv went for his angiogram — wish I had a visual of an old-style cash register showing the enormous cost for these worthless and dangerous tests.
Dr. Howard performed the angiogram (I later reviewed the films of the study) at the hospital he apparently runs. The first catheter, not meant to go into the chamber of the heart, slipped into the heart chamber. He injected dye into that chamber to look at the heart function (not that he needed to since he already had imaged the heart during a stress test) and could have broken off that clot that I mentioned that could have caused a huge stroke. He then made some other injections and found a blockage in a relatively small artery.
If you recall, I mentioned Irv had stomach problems and with that the risk of a bleed from it. Dr. Howard could have left that lesion alone or, at the most, put a type of stent in without a drug coating but instead he put in a drug coated stent. The problem with drug coated stents vs. stents without a coating is that those stents require very aggressive blood thinning drugs (usually aspirin and Plavix) for as long as the patient can take it or preferably three years. The non drug coated stents require a much shorter duration (as few as three months) of therapy with both agents. So now, this old man with a risk of stomach bleeds is on the blood thinner Coumadin plus Aspirin and Plavix.
Amazingly… no bleeding so far!
So what can we conclude? Well, in spite of the fact that our healthcare system suffers from a severe shortage of primary care physicians, in some places there are just too many cardiologists around, especially in some areas of Florida, and the more there are, the more machines they have to use, the more mouths they have to feed, the more tests people like you and I and Irv are going to have, especially in those winter months.
So please be advised: Before having a stress test or a cardiac catheterization, ask the following questions:
- Is the doctor board-certified in cardiology, nuclear cardiology, or invasive cardiology?
- Does the doctor own the invasive cardiology lab?
- Is the center you are going to a university hospital staffed by doctors affiliated with a major medical school?
- Can you show me where this type of procedure fits into the recommendations by the American Heart Association.
- Can you call my doctor to discuss this before proceeding?
Dr. Evan S. Levine is a cardiologist in New York and a Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Montefiore Medical Center – Albert Einstein College of Medicine. He is also the author of the book "What Your Doctor Won't (or can't) Tell You". He lives in Connecticut with his wife and children.

In designing the 15-story headquarters for international luxury clothier Shinsegae International, the design team sought to create an iconic landmark in the heart of Gangnam-gu, one of Seoul's largest districts.
Completed in 2015, the commercial flagship unites more than five hundred Shinsegae employees, who were previously spread between several buildings throughout the city. The program includes staff offices, meeting spaces, design studios, a rooftop garden, and ground-level retail space that faces onto a public plaza.
The building is visually divided into two portions – the lower portion relates to the lively motion and interaction happening on the street, while the upper portion relates to the larger urban context of the Gangnam-gu neighborhood.
Movement and materiality are particularly evident within the building's first four floors where seven custom eight-foot-diameter steel wheels open and close a series of custom 35-foot-tall external panels that modulate natural daylight. The dynamic ethos of the fashion world is captured in these kinetic components: each time the panels are engaged in a new configuration, the building's presence is
The lower portion of the building relates to the pedestrian experience, and is all about revealing and display, i.e. making visible the large wheels and counterweights that move the metal panels.
The atypical façade treatment of the upper portion of the building employs a major/minor envelope grid that defies the expected floor breakup, resulting in a more pleasing proportion than the typical high-rise tower seen elsewhere in this urban context.
The rooftop garden provides a sky-level retreat for employees and sweeping views of the energetic city.

The Miami Heat continue to struggle in the 2016-17 NBA season after losing all their "Big Three" in the recent offseason. The latest NBA rumor claimed that Hassan Whiteside is on the trading block and the Heat plan to rebuild the team.
In the recent free agency, the Heat decided to make Whiteside their main priority, resulting for Dwyane Wade to leave and join the Chicago Bulls. Despite Whiteside's incredible performance every game, the Heat still end up as one of the worst teams in the league. President Pat Riley revealed his plan to rebuild the team to immediately return to title contention.
Goran Dragic has been mentioned in various trade rumors in the past months. In his Podcast on ESPN, Zach Lowe revealed that no one is safe from being traded, not even the Heat's franchise player Hassan Whiteside.
"Up and down the roster, literally every player," said Lowe towards the end of his latest podcast. "Literally no one is untouchable, not even Hassan Whiteside, by a long shot."
Here are the four teams who are expected to trade for Hassan Whiteside:
Aside from Kevin Durant, Whiteside became one of the top free agency targets of the Lakers. They headed into the recent offseason looking for a quality center to replace Roy Hibbert. Unfortunately, the Lakers failed to even have an appointment and targeted Timofey Mozgov.
The Lakers have a plethora of trade assets the Heat need to rebuild the team. Whiteside's four-year, $98 million contract looks enticing for the Lakers as well. Since Kobe Bryant retired, they continue to find his replacement. Whiteside will undeniably be a great fit for the role.
The Portland Trail Blazers need to boost their frontcourt to strengthen their chance in contending for the title this season. Whiteside almost became a Trail Blazer in the recent free agency, as he told Erik Gundersen of Miami Herald.
"Portland was my second option," Whiteside said. "I would have came here."
The Trail Blazers are one of the worst defensive teams in the league. They rank 28th in NBA's defensive efficiency, allowing 109.4 points per 100 possessions. Adding a quality rim protector like Whiteside will undeniably boost their defense.
The Boston Celtics prove to be an ideal trade partner for the Heat. They have plenty of trade assets, including the Brooklyn Nets' picks. Since acquiring Al Horford, the Celtics continue to be active on the trade market, looking for another big man.
Acquiring Hassan Whiteside lets Horford slide to power forward, his natural position. The Celtics eye to dethrone the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference this season. However, with the Cavaliers continuously upgrading their roster, the Celtics should start making a move.
The New York Knicks tried to improve their defense by acquiring former Defensive Player of the Year, Joakim Noah, in the recent free agency. However, they're still one of the worst defensive teams in the league. The Knicks rank 26th in NBA's defensive efficiency, allowing 108.4 points per 100 possessions.
The Knicks are currently 17-21 in the 11th spot in the Eastern Conference. If they're serious about contending for the title, the Knicks should consider improving their roster. Trading for Hassan Whiteside will make them a real "Super Team".
Compared to Noah, Whiteside is undeniably the better big man on both ends of the floor. However, the problem is the Knicks don't have enough assets. The Heat are expected to demand a huge return to let the star center go.

If you recently upgraded your HP Touchpad to CyanogenMod 9, at first you may not be able to see the tablet as an external USB drive and access its storage space from your computer when connected via the USB cable. Relax, nothing is wrong – the problem is in CyanogenMod 9 configuration, which by default presents the tablet as a camera instead of as an external USB storage.
You can easily fix this with a few changes in settings that are kind of hidden and tricky to access:
1. Go to "Settings" (press the bottom right area of the screen where the clock is usually displayed, then press the big clock again, scroll down to settings):
2. Scroll down and press "Storage", then press the three vertically aligned little squares (usual sign for config menu on Android ICS) on top right and press "USB Computer Connection":
3. Instead of "Camera (PTP)", select "Media device (MTP)" and you should be good to go.
Another cumbersome thing in this temp version of CyanogenMod for TouchPad is that its USB storage won't show on your computer as HP TouchPad, but as cm_tenderloin, and after you open it you'll see a drive named "SD Card", which indeed is storage space of your HP Touchpad tablet.

Rep. Michael Burgess Congressman (R-Texas) :
(Interview with POLITICO's Catherine Cheney)
What is the economic argument against the drilling moratorium?
There are people who are desperate that we not do this because what economy they have left that hasn't been hurt with the oil spill itself. The jobs that are left are basically oil industry-related jobs, the Gulf production-type jobs related to offshore drilling.
It needs to go away. Probably the most compelling thing of all the information we've gotten over the past several weeks was when we heard from one of the women who lost her husband on the rig. And she said the drilling in the Gulf must continue.
I think the entire delegation, not just from Texas, but from the Gulf Coast states, have been unified in a bipartisan manner to speak out that this was ill-advised and premature. We sent a letter to the administration asking them to revisit this. At every hearing we have, every opportunity we have, we do keep trying to get this information from the administration: where is the indication that it is necessary to do this and destroy what remains of any livelihood of the Gulf Coast?
What do you think should be done?
I'd say let's put a moratorium on BP rigs, on those wells where they bragged about the cost of production being so low. We had the meeting with the big CEOs from the oil companies, and none of the CEOs from any of the other oil companies said they'd drill an oil rig the way BP did.

We've been enjoying glorious spring weather here in Houston. Cultivated bluebonnets are appearing in neighboring yards:
Frilly azaleas are in full bloom (on the heels of the redbuds, lorapetalum, and Japanese magnolias). It's almost as if the city were spray painted with big splotches of pink, purple, and white:
Those are what I call azaleas!
These huge azaleas tend to be found on older homes. Landscapers today tend to favor Encore azaleas, which grow in tidier formations not much more than about 16 inches tall, and promise to bloom year round. (The "bloom year round" thing, unfortunately, is kind of a joke. They manage to choke out a few blossoms in the warmer weather, but they are decidedly not spectacular.)
Encore azaleas
I came across a tree that was filled with birds that I didn't instantly recognize. There must have been 30 of them, flitting about, eating the berries on the tree. I sat and watched them for a while, completely mesmerized. I later learned that they were Cedar Waxwings.
Cedar Waxwings
The farmers market was packed this weekend, with people coming from all over to enjoy the great weather. I came home with some beautiful produce, including tender broccoli side shoots (we love these):
Green onions in bud (I think these look like baby leeks, but am always told they are green onions):
And never-cease-to-delight-me candy-striped Chioggia beets:
Don't be fooled by their plain exterior
The beauty within
Most of the produce came from Atkinson Farms, one of my favorite vendors. As I completed my purchase and started to walk away, I noticed something on a back table, a sort of Land of Misfit Vegetables. Beep, beep, beep — I backed up to get a better look. Wait. Was that . . . . Could it be . . . ? Cardoons?
Mr. Atkinson confirmed that they were, in fact, cardoons. Up until then, I had only read about cardoons, and at this point, my nose was probably twitching with excitement. I asked him what do you do with them, and he answered with the same answer I get whenever I ask him about any vegetable he sells — "eat them." I told him I figured that out, and he kind of smiled and very patiently explained to me how to prepare them. Turns out, they are a bit of work, which is why, he said, people don't like to buy them. Silly people. He handed me a bunch, told me they were on him, and to let him know what I thought of them. Oh, Joy is my new middle name!
Cardoons, like artichokes, are thistle-like members of the sunflower family. Mr. Atkinson was right, they are a bit of work. You first have to strip the leaves, which are bitter, and trim the outside layer, which is stringy. I'm not sure how to describe the inside of the stalk — it looks like a series of tubes. As the stalks mature, they become hollow and more stringy.
Next, the prepared cardoons need to be simmered in salted water for about 30 minutes until they're tender. Then they're ready to be used in any number of ways — sliced and added to pasta, breaded and fried, gratineed, etc.
I topped my cardoons with a mixture of 1/2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs and 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, then dotted it with about a tablespoon of butter and baked at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes, until the topping was browned.
Looking at cardoons, you might expect them to taste like celery. You would be wrong, and really, why would you want to go to all that trouble for something that tastes like celery, when you could just eat celery? You may have heard that they taste like artichokes. More accurately, they taste EXACTLY like artichoke hearts. And for that, the hassle is worth it.

The Witchfinder reviews a truly appalling game called Depression Quest (DQ), written by Zoe Quinn from the #Gamergate controversy. DQ combines condescension with poor execution. Bizarrely, the supposedly 'right on' media has actually given this game a pass due to the author's alleged PC credentials.
The Witchfinder says it is time game journalists stop defending Zoe Quinn and promoting her work – not for gender reasons but because of her comments on mental health issues.
For those of you new to this blog, the author is a law student. Your Inquisitor spends a lot of time helping vulnerable people and their families in Court, pro-bono, as a McKenzie Friend with a specialism in Mental Capacity (the Court of Protection). Since starting this blog some years ago, the Witchfinder has actually passed some exams and now holds a Graduate Diploma in Law. He has moved on to studying a Master's Degree in Law combined with an LPC (British equivalent of a US attorney's certificate).
This blog is mostly about politics, with law and the very occasional game review.
One of the first things you need to know about UK Equality Law, which is mostly codified in the Equality Act 2010, is that having the same characteristics does not get you off the hook (s24). So for example, a female boss who fires a worker for getting pregnant is not off the hook for being female. Similarly, having the same disability does not get you off the hook for discrimination. Actionable discrimination need also not be deliberate it could be by accident or even subconscious – see Swiggs and Others v. Nagarajan [1999] UKHL 36.
DQ will be reviewed in accordance with Inquisition Game Review Guidelines, ranked in the four categories of – Graphics, Sound, Gameplay and Ease of Use / Glitches. Finally there is a +/- 10 adjustment category for overall impression.
Graphics – 8 / 25
DQ is an interactive text driven story game in which the player is presented with a passage of text in which a few words are highlighted as mechanisms to provide more information or to progress the story. The modern term for it is Twine – basically it is a slightly more baroque version of 'choose-your-own-adventure'. Games using similar mechanics are 'Weird City Interloper', 'Progression' and 'Beneath Floes'. For budding game developers, the Twine engine is here.
Twine-like text games are never going to get top marks for graphics, but the Witchfinder considers that DQ is still a poor example of the genre. DQ has bog standard, grey, by the-numbers-backgrounds and three polaroids at the top of the screen. The three other comparison games mentioned have more memorable graphics. Weird City Interloper, for example, has tentacles. Progression does minimalism, well, minimally, whereas Beneath Floes has eye-catching art.
Your author considers that a pure text game could only ever get 6, and a text game mixed with spectacular still artwork could only ever get 10. DQ has functional mechanics, so avoids the 0-5 zone. It has some grainy, re-used pictures so slightly better than pure text, and the images are overlaid with static as your character gets 'more depressed' so gets an 8.
Sound – 11 / 25
The game's audio is a truly grim piano track. On the other hand, it does evoke the 'depression vibe' the game is trying to express. The soundtrack gets glitchier as your character gets 'more depressed' but this is apparently deliberate. There are no obvious bugs. The game's sound gets an 11. On the one hand, a single crappy track. On the other hand, relevant to the context with context specific audio adjustment.
Gameplay – 6 / 25
The real problem with Depression Quest is the gameplay and the dangerous ignorance it demonstrates. What we have here is a clumsily caricatured depiction of depression. Depression and anxiety are the most common mental disorders and roughly 1 in 6 people will experience depression in their lifetime.
Depression is as varied as the 16.6% of the population likely to experience it. What we get in this game is a clumsy, Hammer Horror interpretation – the soundtrack (sad piano) is a case in point.
It is true that a person cannot just 'snap out' of depression – saying 'get over it' can be unfair. Having said that, research shows that getting enough sleep and exercise can have a profoundly beneficial effect. The British National Health Service website advises –
Do some exercise
Even moderate exercise releases chemicals in your brain that lift your mood. It can help you sleep better, have more energy and keep your heart healthy. If you're trying to reach a healthy weight, exercise will help you lose the pounds.
Choose an exercise that you enjoy. If it helps, do it with a friend or listen to music. Adults should aim for 150 minutes a week.
Get enough sleep
Around seven to eight hours is the average amount of sleep an adult needs for their body and mind to fully rest, but this can vary. Some people need less and some need more before they feel ready for the day.
Whatever the case, make sure that you make sleep a priority. Some people, such as new parents and shift workers, can find this very hard. Ask your partner or a family member to help you so you can catch up on your sleep.
In a game that is supposed to educate you one would expect this to be pointed out. In DQ? No. Very near the start of the game, you are presented with a choice of trying to stay up late to work on a personal project, or turning in –
Nope. Looks like 'turning in' just made you more depressed. At best this is ignorance and a missed opportunity –
The incident is not isolated. The whole game is just crass. At the bottom of the screen is a 'status' section, like the one out of a survival horror text game –
Even the name, 'Depression Quest' is surprisingly crass for someone who claims to have experienced depression. Mental illness cannot be slain by a magic sword, Quinn. So, 6 for Gameplay. It is not bugged but it *is* moronically crass and ignorant.
The game also emphasises a patriarchal, paternalistic approach to mental illness with its emphasis on medication and therapy. Why have this obnoxious woman and her friends Patrick Lindsey and Isaac Schankler obtained such grovelling press? The game is the equivalent, for mental illness, of putting on blackface in a racial context.
The answer is that Zoe Quinn has somehow become a minor celebrity. The issue is not a bad, or patronising game. It is about women in gaming. Quinn has somehow become vaguely associated with characters like Anita Sarkeesian a 'media critic' who has inched her way onto the z-list thanks to a YouTube channel called Feminist Frequency. The essence of Feminist Frequency is that female characters in video games are often stereotyped and hyper-sexualised. This is of course true. So are the men. Video games are full of pneumatic women and Arnold Schwarzenegger type males.
Men have been concerned about body image for just as long as women, and as insecure. For exhibit A, your author presents a 1949 Charles Atlas advert –
The reality of life is that people like to look at physically healthy and attractive men and women, wherefore Hollywood and other media provide them. As the media can afford to always select the best specimens most people will not measure up. Anyone who says that only women feel a pressure to achieve a certain look simply needs to glance at Men's Health magazine.
Charles Atlas and Men's Health have made good money out of male concern over body image.
Where the Witchfinder differs from leftists is he thinks that is a good thing. Why not exercise, get more health, feel better, look better? As an alternative to say, whining about how everyone is thinner and better looking. A few years ago the Witchfinder followed a Men's Health exercise programme and lost a lot of weight. He has put some of it back on and you know what? Your author intends to do another exercise programme instead of suing exercise magazines for creating a hostile environment.
The Witchfinder (a Conservative) thinks the answer to the issue is exercise. Zoe and Anita on the other hand, like most leftists, imply that the answer is speech control. This is, of course, an impossibility in a state with a First Amendment that even protects hardcore pornography and pictures of religious icons in urine. The correct approach to Zoe and Anita is to ignore them or mock their cookie-cutter left wing views.
Unfortunately some sad insecure types have gone beyond legitimate criticism and taken to threatening to murder and rape them. This is doubly unfortunate. First, death and rape threats against anyone online are abhorrent – your Inquisitor condemns them. Secondly, sympathy for the online verbal harassment has obscured Quinn's very real flaws, the weakness of her arguments and her own risibly offensive conduct in the sphere of equalities.
At the same time there have been factually incorrect allegations about Quinn's relationships with game journalists. Again, these are irrelevant. The legitimate and fatal criticism is that Quinn's history of mental health problems does not give her the right to be spokesperson for the 16.6% of the population. Her work is crass.
A more legitimate approach is a write in campaign seeking a boycott of the companies that advertise for her and support her. Recently campaigners succeeded in persuading Intel to withdraw adverts from Gamasutra.com (not linked to avoid increasing traffic). The Witchfinder is more than happy to assist in organising a more general boycott of the site.
Ease of Use / Glitches – 12 / 25
The game is mostly stable, having no serious bugs. On the other hand it has no outstanding or innovative ease of use features. One minor but persistent annoyance is the occasional freeze-pauses after a choice is clicked. The game seems to assume that transition will be quick so there is no AJAX wait animation. As a result, the game is very much in the mediocre category – 12.
Subtotal – 37 / 100
Adjustment -10
The reviewer's adjustment is this site's final comment. Depression Quest is a mediocre free indie game (we say 'free' as payment is optional, though the author does seek donations). Ultimately its only selling point or redeeming feature is in its 'education' and 'raising awareness' of depression. It does so poorly in a condescending, stereotyping, author-centric, clumsy way. This game fails on its central goal and is fundamentally no fun in any other way. Minus 10.
Final Score – 27 / 100
A sledgehammer-over-the-head treatment of the sensitive topic of mental ill health. Does not justify death threats or harassment. Does justify criticism, mockery and boycott.
Boycott Campaign
If you feel offended by Anita Sarkeesian (@FemFreq) or by Zoe Quinn (@TheQuinnspiracy) then a polite campaign to persuade media outlets that their work is offensive is your lawful right. Gamasutra is owned by a company called http://www.ubm.com and the Corporate Chief Executive Tim Cobbold. The Witchfinder suggests a polite mass email campaign or snail mail letter to the address below.
Subject – Gamasutra Boycott Campaign
Dear Mr Cobbold,
We would like to write and express our concerns about the activities of a division of UBM, Gamasutra.com . We believe this property falls under UBM Tech. Gamasutra has recently, like many gaming sites, given prominent and sympathetic treatment to a game called Depression Quest and its author Zoe Quinn.
We understand the reasons for doing so. Superficially, the game does intend to raise awareness about mental health. Ms Quinn has indeed been subject to threats by less pleasant members of the online community and we, like all reasonable people, condemn such activity.
However, despite Gamasutra's undoubted good intentions we feel that Depression Quest is a clumsy and superficial, condescending treatment of mental health. The game has been described as 'equivalent to blackface' by matthewhopkinsnews.com. We consider it offensive. In the past the wrongful misogynist threats a small minority have directed at Ms Quinn have obscured the problems with the game, which is fundamentally a poor to mediocre interactive fiction.
We ask you to direct that Gamasutra cease supporting Ms Quinn and her ideological comrades and whilst we hope you will be persuaded by reason, we are committed to exercising our 1st Amendment (in the US) and Article 10 ECHR (in the UK) rights by organising a boycott or even lawful, peaceful pickets of UBM offices if necessary.
Kind regards,
Tim Cobbold,
Chief Executive

Update 03/02/2015 18:30
Zoe Quinn has changed her screen name on her Twitter @TheQuinnspiracy to 'found witch'. A response to the Witchfinder's interest?

Cheese Whiz, Cheese Ball, Cheoah-Woah, Che.
Note on her name
A few months before Cheoah, we ran into a woman who said she was a member of the Lakota tribe. As a spiritual woman, she said, she wanted to meet the Herd. After talking to us for a while (she was quite fascinating), she told us she saw us getting a new female Siberian who would be named Cheoah, the Cherokee word for Spirit. So, when this dog came into our life, we decided to make the prophesy come through by naming her Cheoah. One minor issue. After, and only after, naming her, we decided to check and make sure the name really meant Spirit in Cherokee. Of course, it does not. It means Otter. While it may seem odd to name a dog "Otter," we decided to let it stick because we liked the name and because she loves – I mean loves – to be soaking wet. She will immerse herself into the water bucket for drinking just for the fun of it (and at the utter disgust of Queen Natasha).
A call came to us from a local rescue in late May 2008. A Siberian Husky had been found tied to a tree behind a foreclosed house. The owners had been contacted and they said they had been unable to find a home for the dog. She came with AKC papers claiming she was 2 1/2 years old, but my vet and I both agree the dog is probably closer to 10 months old. The original plan was we were going to foster her until she found a home. She found a home – she just never had to move. If we believe the AKC paperwork that was left at the house with her, she was born December 22, 2005. Interestingly, the Dam's name on the paperwork was Nikita Natasha. How appropriate.
Whatever her background, she had never been dog socialized and came into the Herd trying to make eye contact with everyone. Needless to say, she has found herself corrected many times by Queen Natasha and Kiska. She is learning how to be submissive to the older, bigger females – a very wise move.
Oh my, what a talker. And her sound of displeasure is a scream. She yelps, woos, howls, and more.
Where she sleeps
Like all newbies, in a crate. Fortunately, she likes her crate a lot and goes to it when she is tired.
Favorite activities
Wrestling with Kodiak and Rusty (the Red Team), aggravating Natasha and Kiska, snuggling (which is cute except when she is soaking wet).

Sold a Single Family home in 2006 for approximately $550K in Petaluma, CA.
I used Peter to buy my home in Petaluma. Peter was my realtor in Marin and had help sell my home there. He did an excellent job in finding qualified buyers and did a great job getting us top dollar for that home.When I told Peter I needed to purchase a home in Petaluma, he told me he had not done any business in that area but was willing to take on the task. In no time at all Peter became very acquainted with the Petaluma area. He found a perfect number of home for sale that met my requirements. Within a week, Peter found my current home and negotiated a price that fit very well with my budget.I would use Peter again if I needed a realtor.…

Sold a Condo home in 2012 for approximately $425K in Novato, CA.
Peter provided outstanding service to us and to others in the sale of our house in a very difficult market. His thoroughness and expertise in pricing the property, organizing the marketing and following up with potential buyers left absolutely nothing to chance. He worked diligently with the bank, buyer realtors, escrow, county officials and ourselves making sure that all procedures were followed, everyone participated in a timely manner, and that the sale process moved ahead. We were very satisfied with his service, and recommend to anyone seeking to purchase or sell a property to consider Peter as their representative in such a transaction. They will not be dissappointed.Larry and Anne Lien…

Bought a Condo home in 2012 in San Rafael, CA.
My husband and I offered Peter a very difficult task! We bought property in Marin County while currently living in New York. While I am a native Marinite who has owned several owner-occupied and rental properties in Mill Valley, Fairfax, and San Anselmo, and thus worked with several agents; I have never worked with a more responsive, detail oriented, go the extra mile sort of real estate professional. Peter was in direct communication with our lender when we couldn't be. He always returned calls, emails, and documents immediately. Peter was so patient and thorough that our confidence in him enabled us to stay on course even through a death in the family and medical emergencies. We would recommend Peter Nielsen without hesitation and plan to utilize his expertise on future purchases. He listens and is flexible as well as analytical and thorough. We are so pleased with our recent purchase! He has even watered the plants until we can arrive! Thank you, Peter, you are outstanding.…

Sold a Condo home in 2009 in Novato, CA.
Peter is one of the most personable agents you'll find. You'll not only get a great, complete knowledge of the market which is so very vital, but you'll have someone who understands and cares about you and your family needs. I highly recommend him and will certainly use him again whenever I'm in the market.

Helped me rent a home.
I heartily recommend Peter Nielsen, Your Marin Realty Expert, based on his work successfully helping find our new office space, and negotiate the lease. He followed up on all leads suggested, located and suggested additional leads based on his knowledge of our needs for office space and price, took the staff to see proposed spaces, recommended the best choice, and completed the contract with the company on our behalf. He is a visionary, and a thorough and dedicated agent.Yours very truly, Roberta Wain-Becker General Director, Golden Gate Opera

Sold a home in 2006.
Peter Neilsen is a good friend and and excellent realtor. When I joined a Marin firm and needed housing, Peter assisted me in finding the perfect condo in the perfect location at the perfect price. (One I could afford.) When I retired from the firm some years later, Peter helped me find the perfect buyer, willing to meet my selling price. His advice upon buying is only exceeded by his knowledge in attracting buyers upon selling. So from my personal experience, whether you are looking to buy or sell, I can recommend Peter Nielsen as your Marin realtor.

Bought a home in 2012.
Very pleased with Peter and his help in locating the perfect home. I looked at many, and as I am a first time buyer really appreciated his comments and insights on looking a home over.

Sold a home in 2012.
Hello, I have purchased a home with Peter and sold two homes with him. I have been 100% satisfied with his service in all my dealings with him. He is always polite, calm, and knowledgable. I am a demanding client, and he always responded promptly to my communications and addressed escrow business expediently. Peter was always honest and applied excellent judgment. One of my escrows was a very difficult short sale, with 2 different lenders. It was a very long process, and Peter was diligent and stayed with it to the very end; even though the commission was small. You will enjoy working with Peter, especially if you like calm, non-pressuring, expert real estate agents!And others had this to say:
"Peter Nielsen both rented (in 2014) and sold (in 2015) my condo at 52 Margarita Ter in Novato. I do not live in Marin and he was very thorough and considerate of my needs through both transactions. With the winter season and some major financial considerations affecting marketing the condo, we were able to complete the sale in a very satisfactory manner and I will definitely recommend Peter to anyone with property needs." "Thank you so much for your professional, personable & efficient effort & time. We are deeply grateful for your help in making [this condo] our home. As I've mentioned, I will recommend you to anyone renting or buying a home. You've been so great!" Warmly, Sonja & Marisa
"Peter did a phenomenal job of selling my home. With the economy in a downturn in the last year, selling a house was a bit of a difficult proposition. In addition, I had moved out of state, so Peter had to manage a long distance sale. The sale became an epic comedy/tragedy at times, but throughout the entire experience Peter was the consummate professional. He always operates with integrity, is patient and results oriented. He went way above and beyond on multiple occasions to facilitate the sale. He truly was my trusted advisor in this challenging situation. I would reccomend Peter with the highest marks possible. He is a true gem to work with." - Hailey Gabriel, Director of Client Support, Fair Isaac
"Peter's a joy to work with, knows how to get a quick read and feel for what your parameters are as well as your objectives - he helped keep us within our parameters and still find the perfect home for our needs. I strongly recommend him." Top qualities: Personable, High Integrity, Creative- Heinz Bartesch, Principal, PNC Staffing (Heinz hired me first to represent him in the sale of his home, and again to represent him in the purchase of a replacement.)
"Peter did an excellent job marketing and selling our house in San Rafael, CA. It was a pleasure to work with him. He is a true professional and brings many years of experience in real estate to the table. He is a straight shooter. He helped us price the house to sell and the sale happened in a timely and effortless way. I highly recommend Peter." - Melissa Hood
"Peter found and facilitated the purchase of a lot that we developed in 2007. He went quite beyond the call of duty in finding, and showing me lots all over the Bay Area. On several occasions he also did complete financial work ups for us on the property, comps, and sales history of the neighborhoods we were looking at. In all my years, I have never had so thorough and knowledgeable of a RE agent. He definitely earned and deserved his commission! He is easy to work with, trustworthy and extremely knowledgeable- I would recommend him on any RealEstate transaction in the Bay Area, particularly the more financially challenging and complex ones." -Andrew Blake, PMP
"Peter and I worked closely together on a purchase transaction for a first time homebuyer. Our client (a single mom with 3 children) needed a significant amount of handholding during this process. Not only did Peter find her the perfect house (well within her price range) for her family, he also went WELL above the call of duty to get the job down in a very tight time frame." - Dan Frost, Mortgage Broker
"It was...quite a mathematical feat to pull it off. But it was such a good deal, we couldn't pass it up. We're just astounded with how it all worked out. It wasn't like we were sitting on a bunch of cash. We were sitting on a dream, basically, and we just got lucky."- John Stein, first time Marin home buyer (The Stein family benefited from a "short sale" that I negotiated as their agent.For more information, see the front page article in the Marin IJ, 02/06/2010.)"My new home closed on the 18th of February. Thanks to my realtor Peter Nielsen. He is the best. He even sent a house warming gift. Thanks Peter!"- Tammy Hill, posted on her Facebook account

U.S. Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) today blasted the House Ways and Means Committee's legislation to temporarily patch the Highway Trust Fund, which funds improvements to roads, bridges and transit systems, by transferring nearly $10 billion from the general fund. The $10 billion transfer is spent within a few months but paid for over 10 years using budget gimmicks.
"This disgraceful practice of borrowing money to cover a few months of spending and paying for it over a decade is nothing more than generational theft," said Corker. "If Congress believes these transportation projects are important, then Congress should have the courage to pay for it in the same timeframe the money is being spent rather than cowardly throw future generations under the bus. It's shameful for a nation of our greatness to be handling infrastructure funding the way that we are."
The federal Highway Trust Fund provides half of the country's spending on transportation projects and will run dry in August, likely halting the construction of any new transportation projects without action from Congress. This will result in a 50 percent reduction in Tennessee's transportation budget in 2015 and create a $160 billion hole in state budgets nationwide over the next decade at a time when they can least afford it.
Last month, Corker and Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) announced a bipartisan proposal that would create a long-term, stable funding mechanism for the Highway Trust Fund.
