Advanced revision to the command 8776 . This revision follows symbolic links. The quotation-marks surrounding $(which $1) allows for graceful handling of errors ( ie. readlink does not complain incase 'which' command generates (null) output) Show Sample Output
to find occurances of expr1 OR expr2
grep - Search file for character string Search for one or more strings in one or more files. Examples:- grep that myfile.txt Look for the string ``that'' in the file called ``myfile.txt'' and print out each line that matches. egrep -in "this|that" *.dat Extended grep search *.dat files for ``this'' or ``that'' case insensitive (-i) and where found print line number (-n) along with the line contents. Show Sample Output
This version builds on my command 8776 (Find the package a command belongs to on debian-based distros). So if you use that command to find package name then you could alternatively use following for
package summary:
function summpkg { dpkg -s $(whichpkg $1 | awk -F: '{print $1}'); }
Show Sample Output
Similar to command 7822, but handles errors gracefully. Show Sample Output
Say your dependencies specified in your Makefile (or dates on your source files) is causing 'make' to skip some source-files (that it should not) or on the other other end, if it is causing make to always build some source-files regardless of dates of target, then above command is handy to find out what 'make' thinks of your date v/s target date-wise or what dependencies are in make's view-point. The egrep part removes the extra noise, that you might want to avoid. Show Sample Output
Shows updated status in a terminal window for connections to port '80' in a human-friendly form. Use 'watch -n1' to update every second, and 'watch -d' to highlight changes between updates. If you wish for status updates on a port other than '80', always remember to put a space afterwards so that ":80" will not match ":8080". Show Sample Output
you can also use cut instead of awk. less powerful but probably faster. ;)
Look mah! All pipes
This command kills all wine instances and each EXE application working on a PC. Here is command info: 1) ps ax > processes = save process list to file named "processes" (we save it because we don't wont egrep to be found in the future) 2) cat processes | egrep "*.exe |*exe]" = shows the file "processes" and after greps for each *.exe and *exe] in it 3) | awk '{ print $1 }' > pstokill = saves processes PID's to file "pstokill" using awk filter 4) kill $(cat pstokill) = kills each PID in file pstokill, which is shown by cat program 5) rm processes && rm pstokill = removes temporary files Show Sample Output
The above one liner can be used to determine what card/driver is Xorg currently using. For additional information, see http://goo.gl/mDnWu Show Sample Output
The dates in the output are Start Date, End Date, Days Remaining in warranty, respectively. This will only work if you are running it on a dell machine. You can substitute the dmidecode command with a service tag if you are not using a dell. Also, you have to either allow your user to run sudo dmidecode with no password or run this command as root. Show Sample Output
Will automatically take the size of the file but longer, usefull only if in an function.
Where COMMAND is the process(es) name. I prefer to get all states but you may add ESTABLISHED in the grep regex.
lsof -c apache2 | egrep -o 'TCP.*ESTABLISHED.*$'
-nP flags are optional and UDP is irrelevant for established connections
Similar but using the process id:
lsof -nP -p PID | egrep -o '(TCP|UDP).*$'
Show Sample Output
Shorter way to find the device for a given mountpoint
scrot, curl, egrep, sed, xsel, libnotify-bin must be installed. P.S. Sorry for so long command Show Sample Output
[Update! Thanks to a tip from ioggstream, I've fixed both of the bugs mentioned below.]
You, yes, 𝙔𝙊𝙐, can be the terror of the Internet! Why use normal, boring bullet points in your text, when you could use a ROTATED HEAVY BLACK HEART BULLET (❥)!? (Which would also be an awesome band name, by the way).
This script makes it easy to find unusual characters from the command line. You can then cut and paste them or, if you're using a GTK application, type Control+Shift+U followed by the code point number (e.g., 2765) and then a SPACE.
USAGE: Put this script in a file (I called mine "ugrep") and make it executable. Run it from the command line like so,
ugrep heart
The output will look like this,
You can, of course, use regular expressions. For example, if you are looking for the "pi" symbol, you could do this:
ugrep '\bpi\b'
REQUIREMENTS: Although this is written in Bash, it assumes you have Perl installed because it greps through the Perl Unicode character name module (/usr/lib/perl5/Unicode/CharName.pm). Note that it would not have made more sense to write this in Perl, since the CharName.pm module doesn't actually include a subroutine for looking up a character based on the description. (Weird.)
BUGS: In order to fit this script in the commandlinefu limits, a couple bugs were added. ① Astral characters beyond the BMP (basic multilingual plane) are not displayed correctly, but see below. ② Perl code from the perl module being grepped is sometimes extraneously matched.
MISFEATURES: Bash's printf cannot, given a Unicode codepoint, print the resulting character to the terminal. GNU's coreutils printf (usually "/usr/bin/printf") can do so, but it is brokenly pedantic about how many hexadecimal digits follow the escape sequence and will actually die with an error if you give the wrong number. This is especially annoying since Unicode code points are usually variable length with implied leading zeros. The CharNames.pm file represents BMP characters as 4 hexits, but astral characters as 5. In the actual version of this script that I use, I've kludged around this misfeature by zero-padding to 8 hexits like so,
/usr/bin/printf "\U$(printf "%08x" 0x$hex)"
TIP 1: The author recommends "xsel" for command line cut-and-paste. For example,
ugrep biohazard | xsel
TIP 2: In Emacs, instead of running this command in a subshell, you can type Unicode code points directly by pressing Control-Q first, but you'll likely want to change the default input from octal to hexadecimal. (setq read-quoted-char-radix 16).
TIP 3: Of course, if you're using X, and you want to type one of the more common unusual characters, it's easiest of all to do it with your Compose (aka Multi) key. For example, hitting [Compose] <3 types ♥.

SHIRLEY -- The Shirley Finance Committee voted 4-1 in favor of supporting the proposed $56.5 million Ayer-Shirley Regional High School renovation that is eligible for 70 percent reimbursement through the Massachusetts School Building Authority.
The project would create a larger, more user- and technology-friendly space that is more energy efficient than the current building. Two wings of the current structure would be demolished, a new wing added, and a new roof added to the current courtyard space, which would become the library/media center.
A small addition would provide space for band and chorus, and a second-floor addition would include new art and computer classrooms. There also would be improved spaces for special education and STEM (science, technology, engineering and math).
Making fiscal sense
Finance Committee Vice Chair Mike Swanton began the discussion about the project at the Nov. 1 meeting by asking if it makes reasonable financial sense.
"We have these funds available and there is a window on these funds," said Finance Committee member Lisa Maria Steinberg. "Lura White (Elementary) has to be dealt with at some point, but with the money available for the high school, I don't think we can turn it down."
Committee member Joe McNiff suggested considering not only the money available from the state, but also the amount (about 10 percent of the total) that Shirley would pay.
There is a direct correlation between the quality of an education in a town and the amount houses are worth," he said. "We have to put more money into the school system. When people hear that people in Shirley get a better education, that gets around."
When the housing market comes back -- and it will -- what causes the price of your house to go up is the demand, and if you have a better school system and a better facility, people tend to want to move in, especially those with children of school age," said Swanton.
The choice-out issue
ASRSD Superintendent Carl Mock estimated that the district currently spends 10 percent of its budget paying to educate students in other districts and charter schools, most of them at the high-school level. Although the choice-out numbers have declined since regionalization, the number of students choicing-in has also slightly declined.
If we turn this down, then all eyes go toward LAW and Page Hilltop (Elementary in Ayer), and the towns would start their own projects to renovate them and the high school will continue on the trend of more choicing-out," said McNiff.
"People whose confidence was going up will begin losing their confidence and people will not want to move here. This is a critical decision for the benefit of the kids and the town, and I think if we don't vote for this, we will be going in the wrong direction."
"Then we would have three buildings in limbo," Finance Committee Chair Frank Kolarik added.
"And if the primary schools aren't cutting it in terms of going with the 21st century, that is a much smaller concern than turning out high-school graduates who can't be competitive in the marketplace," Steinberg said.
Mock said based on a recent assessment of the building, the district believes that LAW can survive another 10 to 15 years without a major renovation.
The payments for the (middle and high) schools at the 10- to 15-year mark begin to level off. That is the point at which we should be looking to do something major for LAW," said McNiff.
The educational benefits
Swanton said he does not see any downside from an educational standpoint for the current high-school project proposal.
Since I am new, I haven't seen the previous proposals, but as a parent, child of two educators, and an educator myself, I see this proposal favorably," Steinberg added.
"Without that new building, (the school district's) chances for success to move forward with a good educational programs are significantly diminished," weighed-in Kolarik. "To try to have an advanced program in the current building would be difficult."
"The building is no longer appropriate to deliver the education program for students in the coming years," concurred Swanton. "And the plan (the district) put together for the coming years is much more optimal for the educational process than what we have today."
Fifty years ago, students were competing with other students in the general area or maybe in southern states, depending on the particular profession you were going into. Today's high school graduates are competing globally," he added.
"I think we all agree the educational piece is a win-win all around," Steinberg concluded.
Concern about LAW
Finance Committee member Bob Schuler said his concern was that the Shirley School Committee had contracted an engineering study of LAW in 2005, and "it was estimated that LAW was not in very good condition, and now I am hearing it has 10 to 15 years left.
"I think it is based on a small amount of assessment and I think that it's optimistic to think that anyone is going to want to teach there," he said.
The recent feasibility study for the middle-high school concept that would have closed LAW, said Mock, indicated that for 860 students, the cost would have been at least $72 million, plus $3 million to convert the middle school to an elementary school.
The impact on this community would have been more than double," he said. "I'm not sure as a taxpayer and as an educator I could have supported that option. It would hamstring the town in a way that nothing else could be done."
A collaborative effort
These are the intangibles that got us into trouble in the first place -- the perception that the towns were not supporting the schools, especially Shirley, and that Shirley would go down the tubes because we couldn't afford our schools to begin with," said Kolarik.
"If this doesn't pass, we will be back to where you started: people leaving the school district. Now we have one problem solved: We have a middle school everyone is happy with. To go back to the other, we put everything on hold for another 2 to 5 years. To me, I don't think we can afford not to do it."
I can't see anything better that we could give the kids of this town for a better education at the high school," said McNiff. "Just keeping the momentum of the confidence in the district, that just rolls into the town. There is no way I cannot vote positively on this. This is a stepping stone and the towns must go forward."
Kolarik said Ayer's support in voting to help pay off the debt on the now-shared middle school indicates mutual respect and the willingness of the towns to work together.
I wish the (Shirley) selectmen would do that as well, and think they should take a vote to support this before the (Nov. 17) vote. That has been the weak link -- the perception that the town leaders have not been joining together to support the solutions. But I am for it," he concluded.
I fully support this program now, and I think it is the way to go," said Swanton. "I really think now is the time, and waiting will cost us significantly more money in terms of the construction costs, interest rates and labor rates."
This is a no-brainer," added McNiff.
After the 4-1 vote in favor of the project, with Schuler the lone dissenter, the committee agreed to draft a letter of support for the project.

Following every Baltimore Ravens game this season, Ryan Chell and I will take to the airwaves Tuesdays on "The Reality Check" on AM1570 WNST.net with a segment known as "The Five Plays That Determined The Game."
It's a simple concept. We'll select five plays from each game that determined the outcome. These five plays will best represent why the Ravens won or lost each game.
This will be our final analysis of the previous game before switching gears towards the next game on the schedule.
Here are the five plays that determined the Ravens' 24-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field…
(Note: not all pictures are always of actual play)
Glenn Clark's Plays…
5. DeMeco Ryans intercepts Joe Flacco pass intended for Dennis Pitta (3rd quarter)
4. Jeremy Maclin 23 yard TD catch from Michael Vick (3rd quarter)
3. Jacoby Jones 25 yard TD catch from Joe Flacco nullified by offensive pass interference (4th quarter)
2. Joe Flacco pass intended for Ray Rice incomplete on 4th & 1 (4th quarter)
1. Joe Flacco pass to Dennis Pitta incomplete on 3rd & 1 (4th quarter)

Liferz finds the band expanding their sound and honing their aesthetic while staying true to their roots. Approaching the new material in the studio with the same earnest energy that characterizes their live shows, Blood On The Wall have crafted their best record to date. The raw energy is still there – tracks like album opener Hibernation and the relentlessly catchy "Rize" nearly bubble over with the band's patent explosiveness. But Blood On The Wall are no one-trick pony, and Liferz is most definitely a diverse outing. The band balances their frenetic bursts with tempered songs like the slow-churning "Lightning Song".
Having gone from hometown heroes to national fan favorites and critical darlings, the band has earned its reputation as top of the rock heap. Along the way they've been able to translate their notoriously wild live show effectively to the studio, putting out raucously fun records. Liferz is a portrait of a band at the top of their game – somehow they have managed to get even more "awesomer".

specs are better than the iphone and the interface looks nice. how much is it? I think the $299 price point is the most that most people are willing to pay
500, in October. [engadget.com].
That works out to $712 USD as of this post (click for a more up-to-date rate [xe.com]), but that will probably be European style - unlocked and with no contract.
It will be up to carriers in countries like the US to decide how much to subsidise the phone, over what contract term.
€ symbol is available by HTML entity: €
If you just poked it in by keyboard, I think slashcode will eat it.
Why? Cuz it's slashcode.
Slashcode supports UTF-8. Slashdot doesn't.
It's headed for T-Mobile. It cleared all the FCC requirements a few weeks ago and the specs list the 1700/2100 band that T-Mobie USA uses.
Hmm... what is thin "European" style you are speaking of. I don't know how it's in other European *countries*, but here in Germany, you got two options:
Either you buy it without any contract or anything (like simlock and branding), and pay the full 500€, or you buy a plan for two years, and depending of the size of that, you will pay between 150€ ($213) and 1€ initially. With branding at the network providers themselves, without branding at independent (and usually cheaper) resellers, and sim

How are these specs better then the iPhone 3GS? The 3GS contains:
Aside from the hardware keyboard, I'm not seeing how it's better hardware-wise.
You missed the part where it said "it runs Linux". At that point whatever stats it has you multiply by 911 to get the real stats. If comparing to the iPhone, you multiply by 911 *twice* to get the comparison stats.
Act, Gary, act.
much better camera and 16GB removable SD cards are supported in addition to the internal memory
i have an iphone 3GS 32GB and if this thing is good in 2 years i'll trade my iphone for it. I like the iphone but it has enough problems for a competitor to come in and take market share.
My BB Curve has much better battery life than my iphone when comparing push email
Apple screwed up contacts importation and allows double and triple contact creation. RIM is better at this.
Apple seems to have taken a cue from Microsoft and if you read the forums, the magic fix is to restore as a new phone. Just like reinstalling Windows.
I like the iPhone mostly for it's flexibility. i have 150 apps on mine which take up over 1GB of space. with RIM's ancient OS it's impossible to do this. The Pre is still in beta but is looking very promising.
even though I'm an MCSE, Microsoft is dead in the mobile space. I don't even think they care. They licensed Active Sync to Apple, Palm and Google but you can't access MS Exchange from most WinMo phones or the Zune.
I would think that by then both of these things will have been thoroughly outclassed.
The US is funny - most europeans (with contracts) get a new phone every year, though the companies are trying to elongate that at the moment.
Built-in FM transmitter
Given that these are illegal in much of the world (although the relevant laws are not enforced for low-power transmitters), I wonder if this will limit adoption.
Low power FM transmitters are very common in the US. Many people use them to connect their MP3 player to their car's radio system. I'm guessing that is what this one is for. With 32GB (or 48GB) of storage you could use this instead of an iPod or other MP3 player.

I think you forgot the most important new feature.
It has a removable battery!
The iPhone is a fashion accessory, and fashion accessories do not require removable/swappable anything.
You dispose of, and replace.

And it even takes care of that for you by conveniently exploding when it's done.
Uhh yes there is. What the heck are you talking about? You hold the home and power buttons simultaneously for a few seconds, ignore any on-screen shutdown prompt and it will do a hard reset. I'm laughing at you waiting till the battery drains to start using your phone...read the manual.
> Removable battery
That does it for me - I'm getting the iPhone!
N900 has a single-touch resistive touchscreen, compared to the iPhone's capactive, multitouch screen. The demo video shows an interesting single-touch zoom method on the N900 - draw a spiral, like winding a display closer or further away.
Actually the real things that set it apart from the 3GS are the following:
* Expandable storage with up to 48 GB with external microSD card (vs nothing)
* 800x480 resolution screen (vs 320x480)
* Video playback file formats:
* Removable battery
The rest is basically the same, especially CPU and GPU wise. I am not sure about the virtual memory stuff. Might be interesting for multitasking applications, although I am not sure how well this works out on the Maemo platform.
The iPhone has on the other side the advantage of a really slick interface and IMHO very good usability. We will definitely also buy one or two N900s for development, and so far I haven't seen one in real life. But I am looking forward to compare them to the iPhone in both performance as well as usability. Also I am looking forward to see what the SDK looks like, never worked with Maemo before.

Operating frequency
* Quad-band GSM EDGE 850/900/1800/1900
* WCDMA 900/1700/2100 MHz
That's right. This device will be available with CDMA support. Which means that people in the US who are customers of carriers who didn't adopt GSM like everybody else in the world ( eg: Sprint, Verizon ) will, in theory, be able to use the phone, too.
And before you say that we should al
Much, much higher resolution screen, 800x480.
Where's the iPhone's 3GS 5 megapixel camera with flash (and Carl Zeiss optics and integrated lens cap), and 800x480 @25fps video? Oh, wait, iPhone 3GS only goes up to 640x480 on the video and 3 megapixels on the camera, no flash, no lens cap.
Also, what's the display resolution? The N900 ix 800x480, a whopping 384K pixels. The iPhone 3GS weighs in at a paltry 480x320, sporting less than half the screen real estate at 153K pixels.
Identical specs indeed.

This is Slashdot, we are not supposed to click on TFA link to see more details....

Look at the N900 feature list [nokia.com] - "Phone" is fourth down.
Maemo may power Nokia's high-end devices, but this is no reason to sound the death knell for Symbian. With regard to Nokia, they make a lot of phones that are not the N900, and do not cost 500 euro. There are also dozens of other companies supporting the Symbian Foundation [wikipedia.org], including many other manufacturers like Samsung [samsungmobile.com] and Sony Ericsson [sonyericsson.com].
Symbian^4 will use Qt as its UI layer [tamoggemon.com], and Maemo is moving into a similar direction [maemo.org] (that's why Nokia bought Trolltech!) - targeting both platforms should be quite simple.
What state do you live in? Hawaii or Alaska? Is there a lower 48 with AT&T coverage that bad?
From the Nokia press release that showed how to get root access ( http://flors.wordpress.com/2009/08/27/software-freedom-lovers-here-comes-maemo-5/ [wordpress.com]):
"If freedom is your concern then you donâ(TM)t need to âoeunlockâ or âoejailbreakâ Maemo 5. From installing an application to getting root access, itâ(TM)s you who decide. We trust you, and at the end itâ(TM)s your device. Nokia also trusts the open source community in general and the Maemo community particularly helping in
The spec says "Music playback file formats:
Being Linux-based, I suppose it would not be too hard to hack it to support Ogg Vorbis. It's however rather annoying that such support is still not provided by default...
Given this looks like a major upgrade from the existing Nokia tablets, this link [maemo.org] might fill in the gap
I'm a bit surprised that "Maemo media player" does not list Ogg Vorbis or Theora as supported formats...
I assume there are add-on packages that do support them, but it seems like an odd omission for a Linux-based platform that's been around plenty long enough to have developed support for legally-free codecs.
(I still want one...)
Surprised? You need to keep up on your geek news.
This is a NOKIA phone. Nokia is one of the two main companies that objected to OGG formats (vorbis & theora) being specified in the HTML5 spec. They aren't fully confident about the patent situation regarding OGG.
* 3.5mm AV connector
* TV out (PAL/NTSC) with Nokia Video Connectivity Cable
* Micro-USB connector, High-Speed USB 2.0
* Bluetooth v2.1 including support for stereo headsets
* Integrated FM transmitter
* Integrated GPS with A-GPS
I'm sure they mean receiver, from the other pieces I've read, but I still wonder if they have low-wattage TX capability for hands-free calls, a'la iPod transmitter for use in the car, the john, or other places where an FM receiver and speakers are available.
It's a low-powered FM transmitter, so that you can use it to play music over your in-car stereo without needing an interface cable.
Since we have clarified that there is indeed an FM transmitter, and that OGG format is available, does this mean that I can now broadcast a Truly Free (TM) radio station of my own design to any listeners within 4 meters?
Can we now, thanks to Nokia, create a new HAM radio scene, operating on Free (TM) Codecs over public wavelengths?

No one here ever mentions resolution as a feature on phone screens, and they should. I have eyesight just good enough to pass the DMV tests without corrective lenses and that's sufficient for my old iPhone's 320x480 screen to be painful for me in comparison to the 640x480 screen on my new phone. I can read significantly smaller text, meaning I can see much larger chunks of real web pages, on the higher resolution screen.
The N900 described in TFA has an 800x480 resolution. That should get people very excited!
The n810 is great, except when you need to make a (non-skype) phone call.
The new keyboard looks good, although it will take me another 9 months to adjust to the new key layout.
The black plastic finish should take more of a beating (drops, in particular) compared to the metal finish of the current unit, but Man! It looks so thick! http://www.sizeasy.com/page/size_comparison/23639-Nokia-N810-vs-N97-vs-Nokia-N900 [sizeasy.com]
The diplay appears to be the same, which is great, unless you're viewing through polarized lenses. The biggest complaint I have with the n810 display is the PDA-class GPU. The PowerVR chip should turn things around. Is it the same core as in iPhone?
Good to see the stand present on the rear.
Alert me when the price & demand drop so I can pick one up for $250.
I own an N800 and this thing is a huge improvement compared to it and the N810. The keyboard is not new, but there are features that are just making this thing right:
1., It's a phone. How much I which the N800 would have that. It's an actual phone!
2., They added a very good camera, but no video conferencing, which is smart. Skype video conferencing still does not work on Linux (yay, closed source software) and the early tries to make video conferencing work just went horribly wrong (they closed the video co
The product page says it has 256MB of physical RAM, and 1GB virtual...
Using virtual memory on a phone's flash storage strikes me as questionable. There have to be reasons that the iPhone/Pre/Android don't do that.
Isn't all the swapping going to wear out your flash pretty fast? And, assuming this thing only has one or two flash chips like most phones, and therefore can't bond a bunch of channels together with a fancy controller for speed like a SSD, isn't it going to be really slow?
Do the previous Mameo devices do this? If so, how does it work.
I have the N770 with only 128mg RAM, I get by very well and have not wore out my 1 gig flash by all that swapping. The apps are not from win32land, they are quite well suited to low memory. What the N770 lacks is CPU and the N900 delivers 600mhz (read: I am jealous!!). These Internet Tablets are very well designed and each revision is greatly improved. I am very happy to see a new model as I was worried that Nokia was throwing in the towel on Maemo, which is another great asset for this line.
You are in a maze of little twisting passages, all different.

My impassioned "72-year-old" friend (who is now 76, but who's counting?), who goes by the Twitter name @42bkdodgr, would like to share his feelings of frustration about the state of politics and our dysfunctional Congress. I am more than happy to oblige, especially because I feel the same way.
This rant reminds me of one I did awhile ago: We have no choice. It might be time to revive that one.
Now on to "Fed Up." But first, a personal note from 42bkdodgr:
Many of you may wonder why I chose to use the "72 year old friend" as the introduction to my Special Comments. I selected the moniker so readers could see that from my age and life experiences I give a different perspective to the issues of today.
Now for his Special Comment:
Like most Americans, I'm FED UP with the dysfunctional government we have.
I'm FED UP that there is a segment within the Republican caucus that refuses to compromise.
I'm FED UP that Republicans have more loyalty to a pledge they signed with Grover Norquist, to never raise taxes, forgetting the oath they took when sworn into office.
I'm FED UP that Republicans in Congress would rather spend government funds on phony investigations than pass a jobs and infrastructure bill, that would create jobs for millions of people, which would move our economy forward.
I'm FED UP with all the hate and racism that exists in our country.
I'm FED UP that the leaders of the Republican Tea Party don't denounce the use of racist remarks, hateful signs and pictures, displays of the Confederate Flag at rallies they attend in Washington D.C. and in their home states.
I'm FED UP with the disrespect shown President Obama and the office he holds. This has been going on since Joe Wilson yelled "You lie!" during a speech President Obama was giving to a joint session of Congress.
I'm FED UP that, after five years, there are still Americans who don't consider President Obama an American citizen or a Christian.
I'm FED UP with a party that lost a national election in 2012, that tries to use a government shut down and threat of default on national debt to force their ideology on Americans-- which the people had rejected-- and in the process, cost the country $24 billion.
I'm FED UP that a political party felt shutting down the government was a good thing, and brags about it and is threatening to try it again in 2014.
I'm FED UP that there are members in Congress who got elected with the sole intent of destroying the government.
I'm FED UP that the Republican Party is trying to defund and kill the Affordable Care Act, knowing full well it can't be done, in the process wasting more government funds.
I'm FED UP with members of Congress willing to cut funds that help those Americans in need while continuing to provide subsidies to farmers and oil companies, plus they refuse to close tax loop holes that benefit the rich.
I'm FED UP that states have or will enact laws to suppress the voting rights of Americans, when voter fraud doesn't exist in the country.
I'm FED UP that states have passed laws that don't allow women to control their own bodies.
I'm FED UP that the Evangelical Christians wanting to impose their religious ideology on all Americans and want to bring down the wall separating church and state.
I will continue to be FED UP, until these issues are addressed, or we will remain an extremely divided country pulling in different directions.
It's sad thing to say, but we are becoming a government, that unless one party controls Congress and the presidency, the chances of any important legislation getting done is almost nil.
That why it is extremely important for Democrats to vote in 2014 if we want to retain control of the Senate and possibly gain control of the House. Americans better begin to wake up and learn; the foundation of our democracy is being threatened by the radical right and it must be addressed.
Many thanks again for another thorough, relevant piece, @42bkdodgr. You often say what many of us are thinking and feeling, and we thank you for your unique perspective.

Russell Libby
An Organic Maine: What is it? What would it look like?
By Russell Libby
MOFGA Executive Director
I think about these questions often as I travel around the state. For every major issue that confronts us, there are approaches that tie us more deeply to the existing economic system, one that is in many ways at the root of the problems. There are also possibilities that would give us both more independence and a deeper sense of community. These possibilities, taken together, form the basis of the Organic Maine that I see as our shared future.
As I write this in November, oil prices are approaching $100 a barrel. Is this because of Peak Oil? Maybe, says a recent German report. Or a weakened dollar? Definitely, say the financial pages. Increased demand is definitely part of the story, too. What would continued high prices or lower availability mean for Maine? The community-based solution, the "Organic Maine" solution, begins to shorten supply lines, to look at how to make local food more easily and widely available, to think about how organic systems can lower the fuel input to food production systems.
Closely related, and intertwined, is the growing discussion about climate change and its impact on our daily lives. For the first time in 24 years, we had a 150-day growing season in Mount Vernon this summer. That follows two springs where we had over 15 inches of rain in May, and couldn't really plant many crops until well into June. With uncertainty comes increased risk. What will it take to adapt and adjust while we work to prevent more damage in the future?
David Fleming and Lawrence Woodward from the Organic Research Centre in England wrote recently about the need for 'flexible diversity' as part of the solution to oil problems, to climate change, to rebuilding our local food systems. I agree. That, to me, is why we greatly need to develop relationships among farmers and fishermen, among the people who eat and those who grow and produce food, and, yes, to deepen our understanding of people in similar and different situations elsewhere. We need to learn from one another, and that can happen only if we talk and communicate – as MOFGA and the fisheries group, Penobscot East Resource Center, have been doing.
For me, after participating in the Body of Evidence study and report this year, an Organic Maine is also a less toxic place, a place where we unhook ourselves from the use of toxic materials in many forms and ways. I am excited about the green chemistry movement that is occurring in Maine and beyond; about the push to make safe "plastics" from potatoes grown in environmentally sound ways, for example.
Obviously, an Organic Maine is about the food we grow, share and eat as well. Several recent MOFGA gatherings (the food vendors' meeting, the joint steering committee/board meeting) featured the bounty of what is available if we look. Local, seasonal, organic is the heart of what we do. I really like a guide that I first heard from MOFGA member and grower Paul Volckhausen a few years ago: 80% from here, 20% from people we trust elsewhere. That is a goal that we can all work toward. Right now we are almost at the reverse – 20% from here, and 80% from away.
Sharing is an important part of an Organic Maine, too: sharing our food, our stories, our experiences, and, yes, our concerns about where we are and where the world might be going. Our Farmer-to-Farmer Conference is a prime example of such sharing. This year the conference was full, as successful and enthusiastic growers of all ages shared a weekend dense with information, full of hope, and bounteous with Maine organic food. Farmer-to-Farmer could be a model for "Organic Maine" agritourism weekends at our state's wonderful resorts.
We can fear the changes that are in front of us, and it is easy to do so; but we can also look at the changes and possibilities ahead as part of the grand adventure that we are all experiencing. After sitting with MOFGA member John Bunker at his outdoor table two years ago, I went home and built my own crude table out of cedar logs and pine boards that now sits under the sugar maple in the yard. More and more, it is the place where I start my day. During the growing season, I watch birds splashing in the birdbath, see which flowers are blooming, note what the weather looks like for the day ahead. Often we find ourselves around the table for meals, for quick visits with neighbors as they walk past, for the day-to-day happenings that tie our lives together. As the leaves fall, I sit and watch as new views open beyond the orchard and the sugar maples, off to the pines and hills to the south and east
As we work to build an Organic Maine, as we work to build this local and organic food system, we need to remember that we are part of a larger world, and we need to find ways to build joy into all that we do, the joy that comes from sharing our lives with others. This, too, is part of the Organic Maine that is both our present and our future.
Wishing you all the best in the year ahead.

Last season, despite winning the La Liga title, Barcelona would have felt they had underachieved by not reaching the Spanish Cup or Champions League final, such are the high standards at the Catalan club.
I feel the main reason for their failure to reach a cup final was the defensive cracks that are beginning to be exposed in the Barcelona back-line, as seen in the 4-0 and 3-0 defeats by Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-finals.
These alarming defeats, coupled with the fact that Carles Puyol is in the twilight of his career are the reasons why I feel they need to recruit a new centre-back.
The new recruit needs to be a ball-playing centre-half to be able to fit in with their style and will, therefore, hopefully become part of the spine of the team for years to come.
This article looks at three centre-backs that Barcelona could sign in the coming transfer window.
Thomas Vermaelen | Arsenal
The Arsenal captain didn't have his best season last year but there is no doubting that on his day he can be a striker's nightmare to try and get past.
I feel his poor season was down to the added expectations placed on his shoulders after being made captain for last season - and he just couldn't deal with the pressure.
In terms of his ability he is quite quick across the ground and can match most strikers in terms of aerial prowess, although due to the style of the Spanish league is a less needed attribute as most of the football is played on the ground not in the air.
With him being left footed this could add some balance to the Barcelona defence with his probable defensive partner Gerard Pique being predominately right footed.
He also has the ability to play as a left-back and therefore offers cover for Jordi Alba at left-back, an area which is lacking after the departure of Eric Abidal.
Whether or not Arsenal would want to sell their captain might be influenced by their ability to find a replacement, but they have been strongly lined with Swansea City defender Ashley Williams.
David Luiz | Chelsea
David Luiz is a fan favourite at Chelsea but it is rumoured that Jose Mourinho has reservations about the player's ability to defend. He is quite prone to the occasional burst forward, which does leave the back-line with a gaping hole in it, and that has been taken advantage of by opposing teams in the past.
However, he has managed to control the frequency of those bursts forward and at Barcelona, due to them constantly dominating possession, he is less likely to burst forward and when he does it is less likely to be taken advantage of by the opposition.
He clearly has the technique desired by the Catalan club both in terms of passing vision and his ability to score from distance, as seen several times last season at Stamford Bridge.
He can be prone to putting in a physical tackle, which can sometimes be deemed as a dirty challenge, and in La Liga it could lead to him receiving several red cards over the course of a season.
Whether or not this transfer takes place rests primarily upon the shoulders of Mr Mourinho and whether or not he believes David Luiz is good enough defensively to remain at Stamford Bridge. This ability has been shown at times in the Confederations Cup for Brazil and could persuade Mourinho to stick with the long-haired Brazilian, but if he doesn't Barcelona will surely be looking to recruit him.
Mats Hummels | Borussia Dortmund
Finally it is time to examine the German centre-back, who was pivotal in enabling Dortmund to reach the Champions League final last season.
He is highly regarded around the world of football for being a strong centre-back and would definitely be able to add some stealth to the Barcelona defence. He has the ability to time his challenges to perfection and again is strong in the air which is beneficial in both boxes.
He has at times in the past allowed the big occasions to affect his performances, most notably in the semi-final of the European Championships of 2012 when Mario Ballotelli ran rings around him for the whole game, and that short back pass last season against Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-final.
Obviously this would be a concern for the Catalan club due to the amount of big games that they are expected to play in every year. However, Hummels has won the German League and the German Cup so has shown he has the ability to perform consistently over a season.
Whether or not Hummels would be available is another matter, but with players like Mario Gotze leaving and Robert Lewandowski expect to leave, Hummels may be tempted to join the exodus if the Catalan club make an approach.

Arsenal and Liverpool go head-to-head in the Premier League tonight (Wednesday), with the Gunners looking to repeat their 2-0 victory at Anfield earlier in the season.
Wojciech Szczesny is set to continue in goal for Arsene Wenger, despite a few moment of concern for the north London outfit in their 3-2 FA Cup victory over Brighton at the weekend.
Captain Thomas Vermaelen missed the trip to the south coast with an ankle injury, but should be back to line-up alongside Bacary Sagna, Per Mertesacker and Kieran Gibbs in the Arsenal defence.
Mikel Arteta is also scheduled to return for tonight's clash at the Emirates Stadium, but is likely to find his place amongst the substitutes. Jack Wilshere and Santi Cazorla are the certain starters in midfield.
And, up-front, Frenchman Olivier Giroud has certainly found his goalscoring form at the right time. He is likely to keep his place following a brace against the Seagulls, with Theo Walcott and Lukas Podolski in support.
Arsenal predicted line-up v Liverpool:
Wojciech Szczesny; Bacary Sagna, Thomas Vermaelen, Per Mertesacker, Kieran Gibbs; Santi Cazorla, Abou Diaby, Jack Wilshere; Theo Walcott, Olivier Giroud, Lukas Podolski.

LEMONT FURNACE, Pa. -- The Penn State Board of Trustees granted emeritus status to two former members, Dave Jones and Anne Riley, recognizing them for distinguished service during their 15-year tenures.
"Both Anne Riley and David Jones have served with distinction as Penn State Trustees," said Keith Eckel, chairman of the board's Governance and Long Range Planning Committee. "No one has ever been more loyal to the University or more dedicated than Anne. She made many difficult decisions during her years of service and always made the decision based not on her personal preference but what was best for Penn State.
"Dave Jones was truly the conscience of the board and always asked the tough questions that thoroughly probed the issues and assured that no decision would be made without thorough analysis," Eckel said. "Their outstanding service has been invaluable. I look forward to their future contributions as emeriti trustees."
Although retired from voting and serving as officers, Penn State's trustee emeriti continue to serve on the board as their schedules permit.
Jones, a former assistant managing editor for The New York Times and alumni appointee to the Board of Trustees, served from 1997 to 2012.
For seven years, he was a Wall Street Journal reporter in New York and Pittsburgh. Since 1963, he worked for The New York Times in Detroit, Washington and New York. As national editor, he directed the Times national news report for 14 years, including coverage of four presidential elections. He later served as editor of national editions and assistant managing editor.
A native of Connellsville, Pa., Jones received his bachelor of arts degree in journalism from Penn State in 1954. He was editor of The Daily Collegian and a member of Parmi Nous alumni interest group and Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity. He also has a master of arts degree in American history from New York University (1961) and was a U.S. Air Force officer. He received Penn State's Distinguished Alumnus Award in 1979 and the Alumni Fellow Award in 1987.
Riley, a retired English teacher who worked 31 years at State College High School, was elected to the board by alumni in 1997 and served until 2012.
A native of Centre County, Riley is former president of the Penn State Alumni Association, serving on its council and executive board for 18 years, during which time she was part of the building committee for the Hintz Family Alumni Center. She helped to establish the Alumni Association's Penn State Distinguished Teaching Fellow Award and to expand international alumni programs, specifically Penn State/U.K./Cambridge.
Riley graduated from Penn State in the College of the Liberal Arts with a bachelor of arts degree in English in 1964, and a master of arts degree in English in 1975. Riley received the Lion's Paw Medal for service to the University in 2004 and the Alumni Service to Penn State Award in the College of the Liberal Arts in 1998. She also is an Honorary Lion Ambassador.

Submission + - Verizon LTE Can Use The Monthly Data Cap in 32 Min 1
adeelarshad82 writes: Verizon's new 4G LTE network is so fast that you can use up your entire 5GB in as little as 32 minutes. The 2010-era speeds are soured by the 2005-era thinking on data plans. Verizon has priced LTE pretty much like 3G to encourage data sipping, not guzzling. As soon as you start using the latest high-bandwidth Internet services, your whole month's allotment can evaporate in no time.According to a test, the network's speed maxed out at 21Mbps, which means that it takes only 32 minutes to smoke up the 5GB monthly data cap on the plan. While the 21Mbps speed was hit on a low traffic network, Verizon estimates you'll be able to get around 8.5Mbps with a loaded network which still means that the cap can be exhausted in about little under an hour and a half.

Also, you are the only one who seems motivated to continually evolve, improve, and enhance your platform. Maybe my best reason to keep ChartLabPro and lose the others is because I have actually earned a small profit tapping the platform's resources, more specifically, in AAPL and NKE.

Timeraiser – Capital Style
Kimberly Senf (Twitter) is a displaced Montrealer living in Ottawa, by way of Halifax. She's a librarian by trade, currently working for the government as an information manager, organizing and categorizing data and information by day. An avid bookworm, she loves to visit the library and roam the aisles, lugging all-too-many books home each time. Dedicated knitter, coffee lover and garage sale enthusiast, she enjoys wandering around Ottawa neighbourhoods to find previously undiscovered pockets of the city. She's also one of the co-founders of the retired Montreal blog, The Tragically Unhip.
Imagine bringing home an enticing, brand new piece of art you didn't spend a penny on. If you've ever been to a Timeraiser event and won artwork, you'll know exactly what this feels like. Saturday night in Ottawa marked Timeraiser's fifth event in our capital city and, like in years prior, it brought people out in spades to enjoy local artwork and spirited conversations with non-profit agencies. It got people bidding their time in order to have their favourite art pieces living atop their mantles for years to come.
In case you don't know, Timeraiser functions as a volunteer fair and a silent art auction – with an intriguing twist: volunteer hours are used to bid on artwork, rather than money. Asking attendees to volunteer their time rather than open their wallets levels the playing field of interested art aficionados. Purchasing art is an experience not everyone can afford, and volunteering time to a cause of your choice is certainly a unique way to open up the bidding (and the artwork) to anyone with an interest in volunteerism.
The event works as follows: over the course of several months, a variety of artwork is purchased from local artists. Non-profit agencies are approached to participate in the event. On the night of the event, a smattering of these agencies invite attendees into conversation regarding the type of volunteer for which they are looking, and ideally an excellent match is made. After a couple of drinks and a handful of coversations, anyone with the aim of bidding on art surely has their eye on a couple of pieces. Once it's announced that bidding is open, everyone can bid to their heart's content on any of the artwork available, but in the spirt of fairness they will only be able to win one piece. Each artwork has a maximum number of 100 volunteer hours that particpants can bid, in order to give winners enough time over the course of the year to complete the volunteer pledge they've made to an organization. At the end of the year, each successful art winner/volunteer is presented with the piece they won at the previous Timeraiser, and the fun starts all over again. Sound intruiging? It surely takes the excitement of the silent art auction up a notch or two.
After hearing about Timeraiser through a friend, I was immediately entranced by the innovative idea and got in touch with the organizers to volunteer. The entire process of setting up for the event is transparent and available to any interested party on the Timeraiser planning site for each city, which is an aspect of the organization that drew my interest. From the moment I met with Amanda, the communications manager for Timeraiser, I was enveloped into the fold and given the go-ahead to tweet, poster and spread the word for the event as far and wide as possible. On the night of the event, getting to work with such an engaged group of people and volunteers was a fantastic introduction to the Timeraiser experience. The goal of the evening was to raise 5,000 volunteer hours for Ottawa, and we came in just shy of the total, at approximately 4,400 hours pledged.
As a volunteer I was encouraged to let other participants bid on artwork, rather than bidding on it myself, so I must admit my new challenge is the dilemma between volunteering with Timeraiser or bidding on next year's selection of artwork. If the pieces that were on offer this year by Paul Sharp, Tony Taylor, Norah Taylor and Dylan Farrell were any indication of what's to come, it's going to be a difficult choice.
Did any of you attend last weekend's Timeraiser event? We want to hear what you bid on (because this sounds like such a neat experience!)

CENTRAL COAST Mariners ended one of the A-League's longest hoodoos after claiming their first home win against Brisbane Roar.
Tom Rogic scored an 81st-minute winner and had an important role in the Mariners' first goal to prove that he's no longer just a star of the future, but perhaps already one today.
The hosts started the match knowing they had to do what no other Mariners team had done before and topple the Roar. A Bernie Ibini goal after only three minutes gave Graham Arnold's men early hope. Rogic had found space on the counter-attack and put in a pin-point pass to Daniel McBreen, who failed to control the ball in his stride. The veteran striker recovered, however, to find Pedj Bojic down the right flank and the defender whipped in a deep cross to the unmarked Ibini who headed the ball past the outstretched arms of Michael Theo.
Rogic nearly doubled the Mariners lead in the 19th minute when he was put into space in the box by Josh Rose and unleashed a stinging left-foot shot that rattled the upright.
Brisbane began to dictate possession after escaping the scare, but the champions struggled to unlock the Mariners defence. Massimo Murdocca eventually created the Roar's first chance with a long-range shot that sailed wide of the goal.
Midway through the first half, Besart Berisha and Nick Montgomery tangled and the Mariners midfielder was ruled to have fouled the Albanian striker. A tussle followed and the Mariners complained that Berisha stomped on the English midfielder while he was getting up off the ground.
The Roar levelled the match in the 32nd minute through a fierce Murdocca drive from outside the box. The midfielder scored his third A-League goal with a shot from 20 metres that beat Mat Ryan at the near post.
Though, Berisha nearly soured the Roar's celebrations immediately after the kick-off. The Albanian striker fouled Trent Sainsbury and appeared to have attempted to head-butt John Hutchinson during the skirmish. While he escaped with a yellow card, he received a spray from coach Rado Vidosic.
''[I told him to] Take a drink and cool down. What can you tell him?'' Vidosic said. ''He's very passionate and if things don't go our way sometimes he reacts a little bit silly. He should try and control his temper as much as anybody else.''
Brisbane started the second half more composed and controlled possession in the first 10 minutes. The lively Mitch Nicholls came on for Henrique and wearing down the Mariners became their goal for the second period. Though, the hosts were happy to sit deep to contain the Roar and hit them on the counter.
Late in the game, Bojic made a darting run down the right flank and looked to have skipped his way into the box before Matt Jurman fouled the Mariners defender. The Roar's defence failed to regather from the set-piece and poor marking allowed the Mariners to snatch the lead late in the game. Michael McGlinchey latched onto a looping Oliver Bozanic free kick and headed the ball back into the middle of the box for Rogic to fire a volley from close range.
The Roar's lapse in defence bore the brunt of their coach's criticism, who put his players on notice to take responsibility for their poor form.
''It was just kindergarten stuff,'' Vidosic said. ''Players need to have a good look at themselves. I can't go out there, they all got instructions what they need to do and if I tell you to mark him, that's all that you need to do. You stay with him, you follow him. If he goes to toilet, you go with him to toilet, it's simple as that.''

text: daniel1 31 Report post Posted February 12, 2013 I've been impressed by Brunner so far this year, he seems to be a fairly complete player and has been defensively responsible as well as lighting the lamp on a consistent basis. I was worried that he would be another Brunnstrom and not live up to the hype of having had success in an overseas league but I've been pleasantly surprised. His six goals so far leads all rookies, which bring me to my question of his eligibility for the Calder. I know the NHL put in the Makarov rule the year he won it but I'm not sure what the age restriction was? Brunner was born in 1986 so that would make him 27, is that too old to win the Calder award? What does everyone think Brunner's ceiling is after seeing him for about a quarter of the season? I would not be surprised to see him score over 30 in a regular 82 game season, especially if he stays on Z's line. I wouldn't be surprised to see him hit 20 this in this abreviated season even. Also, that got me thinking about who the last Red Wing to win the Calder was? I remember Barasso beating out Stevie Y in his rookie season, Feds scoring 31 in his rookie season but Eddie the Eagle "If you had a million dollars would you let me go" Belfour beating him out that year and Barret Jackass, er, Jackman being selected over Z in his rookie year (possibly the worst ever Calder selection) so, without running to Google, who can tell me the last Wing to win the Calder?

COLLEGE STATION Each year, thousands of people die from the flu. Thousands more are hospitalized because of the virus. What happens when those numbers start climbing higher?
Research happening at Texas A&M could help protect us from the next pandemic and save millions of lives.
"We had a pandemic in 2009," said Dr. Scott Lillibridge. H's the Chief Scientist at the Texas A&M Center for Innovation and Advanced Development and Manufacturing.
"Every year we are continuing to provide surveillance. We're looking at H5N1, H7N9. There's a number of strains that we have our eye on, on a worldwide basis," continued Lillibridge.
It's the nightmare scenarios of movie plots. Millions of people all over the world sick and no way to quickly treat them. In the movie Contagion, an unknown virus spreads quickly with no known vaccine.
In real life though, researchers at Texas A&M are working on combating a more common enemy - the flu.
"With respect to the population we're seeing the most impact for hospitalization, it is typically in the 18-64 years of age range, right now," said Lillibridge.
"That's a little unusual because we normally expect the flu to impact people 65 and above. We're keeping our eye on that. We think the flu vaccine this year is very well targeted," he continued. Lillibridge is one of many at the center who have a deep background in infectious diseases. His job is to oversee a new way of mass producing flu vaccines.
"In the past we had to gather eggs. It was a slow process. It took about 6 or 7 months. The new process we grow vaccines in individual cells, mammalian cells, and we're able to complete up to 50 million doses in four months or less," said Lillibridge.
2009 was the last year a flu pandemic swept the globe. Between 20,000 and 275,000 people died. The front lines of flu many times are emergency rooms. It's here that the first signs of a flu pandemic will show up. So, how do we know when the next pandemic will hit? And could we be seeing those signs now?
"I would compare this year to the 2009 H1N1 flu epidemic, where we had a significant number of flu cases and a significant number of sick patients," said Dr. Aaron Buzzard with St. Joseph's Hospital in Bryan. He says he's seen a significant increase in flu cases this year.
"The unusual part is that we've seen it in younger folks this year, like in 2009. And for reason's that I can't explain, this virus, H1N1, seems to prefer younger people and gives them more serious illness than a traditional influenza virus," said Buzzard.
Even though flu season peaks nationally in February, reported cases are dropping in Brazos County. Still, the number of people getting sick this season is high.
"It's important to realize that Texas A&M wants to fundamentally transform how in the world we do vaccine manufacturing. We have the processes here to do it better, faster, cheaper and will give us the ability and the tools to transform public health on a worldwide basis," said Lillibridge, as he stood in front of a learning lab at the National Center for Therapeutics Manufacturing.
The process of producing vaccines in cells, not eggs, means more vaccines get to the public faster. But you might ask, why bother, when we can't predict the next flu virus or pandemic?
"Our limitations in response for a public health emergency has always been in our ability to manufacture vaccines and antidotes," said Lillibridge.
"We're pretty good at identifying threats and warning people. We were just pretty bad about having the antidotes and vaccines available. This is the final end of that that corrects that deficiency," he continued.
One that will be put to the test during the next health crisis.
Doctor Lillibridge at the Center of Innovation says the partnership with Texas A&M and private vaccine company GlaxoSmithKline gives students the opportunity to get real-world experience in the bio-medical industry. That exposure means a workforce is growing that is already familiar with the new vaccine process.

The lights are on
Video game storytelling has grown tremendously. In less than
40 years, we've gone from two ping-pong paddles and a ball to full-blown
narratives, multidimensional characters, and complex themes. I love watching
people dissect modern games and come away with different interpretations, and
that developers even hide secret messages for the most dedicated players to
unravel. Despite this, many gamers haven't reacted well to non-traditional storytelling
and cryptic endings.
Spoiler warning: This
editorial discusses the endings of The Last of Us, BioShock Infinite, Mass
Effect 3, and Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward.
Lately, I've noticed more and more blowback at endings that
don't wrap things up in a neat little package, and instead leave gamers to make
their own interpretations. Ambiguity is looked at as the ugly stepsister of
endings. How dare the writers leave any unanswered questions? One of the
problems with video games and why gamers yearn to have the loose ends wrapped
up is the time commitment. Compared to watching a movie, there's more buildup and
hype to the culmination of our efforts. Being left unsatisfied stings,
especially when you've spent numerous hours with the characters and universe.
Not every game should walk the ambiguity route, but I wish gamers would take
some delight in coming to their own conclusions.
Take Naughty Dog's recent hit, The Last of Us. The writer
made a deliberate choice to end with Joel lying to Ellie and the audience not
knowing what that lie will mean for the pair. Ellie actually asks him if he's
telling the truth, acknowledging to the audience that even she is speculating about
Joel's motivations. However, Joel continues his lie and she responds with a
simple "okay." You can take her "okay" to mean a number of things, but the
credits roll leaving you with just that word. While many defended this ending,
the first question I was asked by many gamers is if I thought Naughty Dog would
release DLC or a sequel to "provide closure" and "wrap up the story." My
response has and always will be that knowing the complete outcome would ruin it
. Part of the magic is putting together all the information and interpreting those
last lines for yourself. I've thought about that ending long after I saw it
because it left me to connect the dots. I am satisfied by my interpretation,
and don't need Naughty Dog to spell it out in order to enjoy one of the year's
best tales.
Not all stories have clean resolutions, and neither do those
in reality. Life is messy and complicated; journeys don't end with all the
pieces in place. Some of the best writing must be analyzed, left to one's own
interpretations, without having writers commit to one "right" way to take their
Science fiction often leaves loose ends and unanswered
questions. For whatever reason, this has been met with resistance when it pops
up in games. Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward's ending is a classic take on
the sci-fi genre, yet the complaints are rampant. Many gamers thought it was
simply a setup for a future game, despite it being reminiscent of many speculative
science fiction stories. Few absolutes are presented in VLR; by the end, you
can't trust your own thoughts, and that's where it succeeds. Did the game end
where it began? Time travel is always complicated and some of the best sci-fi
plays off its ambiguity.
However, a bad ending is a bad ending, and there's no
getting away from that. Just make sure you're calling out the company because
it was poorly executed, not just because it's different. Fans felt like Mass
Effect 3's often-debated finale didn't fulfill the cocktail of promises BioWare
waved in front of them, especially regarding their own choices. The fact that fans couldn't
bear any loose ends, such as not knowing the impact of the destruction of the
mass relays, says something about how powerful the series' storytelling is. Nonetheless,
for some the ending overshadowed the entire game. When fans have a five-year
investment in a series, sky-high expectations can make ambiguity hard to pull
off. This is also a two-way street, though. Fans must meet writers halfway, and
allow them to experiment and not force-feed them all the answers.
As the industry grows, more styles will emerge. This makes
me worry they won't be embraced because we're too rigid in our expectations,
rejecting anything that turns away from the norm. Still, I'm hopeful. Over the
last few years, not all ambiguous endings have been met with displeasure. Games
such as BioShock Infinite inch closer to great literature and film; gamers
weren't just watching and having all their questions answered, instead being
invited to think through what Infinite's ending meant.
The best games spark us to discuss and analyze them with
others. This
is the most gratifying experience a gamer can offer and I'd hate for gamers' longing for neat conclusions to deter writers from
going outside of the box. We have to be okay with not having our hands held;
the writers are sharing their stories with us, and sometimes the best storytelling
asks for a little more of its audience than a passive acceptance of perfectly
laid out details.
