My Games |
Bought Tribune about a month ago and want to share my impressions. After a couple of initial plays I was almost disappointed - but then I understood that for the most part it's not that something is wrong with the game, I just was expecting it to be something it isn't. I was expecting to see meaty euro game with a lot of decision options and stragety (especially knwoing it comes for Die Marcher designer) - it turned out to be much lighter than I expected. But disappointement didn't last long as I discovered that Tribubne has a lot of things I wasn't expecting to get with this game:
- one of the best examples of how theme and game mechanics are smoothly blended together. Your are not just placing workers or drawing cards - you are actually competing for influence in ancient Rome
- it's a game you can play with your non-gamer friends. Just like that - explain the rules (OK, not in 3 minutes - it will take a while) and get to playing your first session. For comparision, try do the same with Caylus and it probably gonna be last time your friends will agree to come over for a board game evening
- even not very strategically deep it still gives you a lot of choices that influence the result
- it plays fast with no significant downtime. Round is split in phases and everybody gets do something during each phase and stays involved
- there's a good deal of interaction as players compete for control of the factions and take part in auctions
- for a worker placement type of game it plays relatively fast - and you can actually influence how long it will take by selecting set of Victory conditions to use for particular session
So to make Tribune shine and show it's best qualities don't play it in your gaming group (where most probably it will be tagged as a "filler", "shallow" or the like) - bring it to a table with your friends and this will be enjoyable experience for everyone. And 4 or 5 players is best option, but will work with 2 or 3 either.

I agree that it's lighter than at first it appears. It got lots of my plays at my group until people realized how short it was, and then were kind of like, "What's the point?"
I think it's the big box. (no kidding) (O: Though, there's some more light games coming out in big boxes (Board Games with Scott just did one about packing moving trucks) so maybe the stereotype will get busted.
But, certainly, after learning all the rules, it's odd to realize that in a five player game, you might never get the first player token
'The healthy, fully-functioning person knows herself as both strong and vulnerable, as pure yet tarnished, simultaneously special and ordinary.  The one who feigns flawlessness is a long way from wholeness.' - Marsha Sinetar
I am tempted to purchase this game.
Move him into the sun
Gently its touch awoke him once,
At home, whispering of fields unsown.
Always it woke him, even in France,
Until this morningthis snow.
If anything might rouse him now
The kind old sun will know.
- Wilfred Owen
It's definitely worthwhile - the game was well received by my friends, although we have only played it once - too many other distractions I'm afraid - but it would work with gaming buddies as a bit of lighter gameplay, a break from games with a hell of a lot to think about, like the vaunted Caylus, or Agricola for example. Besides which, I have a soft spot historically speaking for ancient Rome, so this was a must buy when it was released.

I played this game for the first time two nights ago, and I really enjoyed it. I know we don't have all the rules down pat, but I was glad I picked up a copy. The games are short -- our longest game took about 90 minutes -- but that in no way detracts from the fun. I like games like Colossal Arena, so a game with interesting mechanics about bidding and control (and that's what this game is about) really hits me in my geek spot. look forward to playing it again, and introducing it to the rest of my friends and family -- including my wife.
Hmm, the different lacks explained in this thread disappoints me a little...
But I may still see a purchase on the horizon :)
That's no ork horn...
Reading this makes me think this would be a great game purchase in the future because the group I play with at work is fairly new to the more "non-traditional" board games. This is the kind of game they do like, and will keep them playing. I love deep games, but there's something to be said for lighter games. Especially under the right circumstances.
I've been eying this game up a lot lately, and I think I'll probably be getting it, but I have one question first. Since, it seems like this game's learning curve isn't quite as steep, would getting the expansion at the same time and learning both together pose much of a problem? I'm used to deep games, but some of the people I game with aren't, and they get discouraged if it's too hard to learn.

MELBOURNE, Australia — A world away from the leather-cushioned chairs which held Lance Armstrong and Oprah Winfrey in their interview Thursday, third-round tennis opponents Novak Djokovic and Radek Stepanek sat in their own wooden swivel chairs behind podiums under Rod Laver Arena, and discussed Armstrong's revelations.
Neither had yet been able to watch the interview, as it aired during the third-round match between the two, which Djokovic won 6-4, 6-3, 7-5.
The overlapping timing of the two events had frustrated Stepanek, a 34-year-old Czech veteran.
"I was getting ready for my match — I really wanted to see it," Stepanek said of the Armstrong interview. "So I will see it definitely when I have a chance. But I don't think it's an excuse, that 'I was doing it because everyone was doing it.' I don't think it's an honest thing; if you want to do it, then you know that it's cheating. And you have to live with it, which is the thing for me personally which I don't understand, because I wouldn't be able to live with it. But, you know, it's what it is. I have to first see it, and I am really looking forward to see it. Because I think everybody in the world was waiting for that, and I'm not the exception."
Djokovic, the current top-ranked player in the world and a five-time Grand Slam champion, was asked if he shared his opponent's eagerness to see the Armstrong interview himself.
"I think everybody was expecting him to do that," Djokovic said of Armstrong's admission, before tearing into the man in question.
"It would be ridiculous for him to decline and refuse all the charges because it has been proven," he said. "They have like a thousand proofs that he's positive. I think it's a disgrace for the sport to have an athlete like this. He cheated the sport. He cheated many people around the world with his career, with his life story. I think they should take all his titles away because it's not fair towards any sportsman, any athlete. It's just not the way to be successful. So I think he should suffer for his lies all these years."
Djokovic added that the scandals surrounding Armstrong and others had dampened his enthusiasm for the sport.
"I lost a lot of faith in cycling," Djokovic said. "I used to watch it. All the big champions that were there, Marco Pantani, now Lance Armstrong. I don't want to say 'all,' I really don't know. There has been so much controversy about that sport. I'm sure that there are many cyclists in the world who are training very hard and trying to not use any enhancing drugs for their competition."
Djokovic seemed to place some of the blame for cycling's cheating epidemic on what he sees as the unreasonable demands of the formats of the sport.
"But I think it's not acceptable that they have physically so much races in short period of the time," he said. "I think basically every single day, day and a half, they have to go through 200 miles. Uphill, downhill in Giro D'Italia, Tour de France, that's inhuman effort. As you can see, Lance Armstrong, many other big champions, had to use something to succeed."
Djokovic insisted, however, that tennis fans should be confident in the cleanness of his own sport because of the paucity of tennis professionals who have been caught with performance-enhancing drugs.
"The results are showing that," he said. "In last few years there maybe has been one or two cases, but those players were more or less outside of the hundred. We are keeping this sport clean. We are working towards it. There is awareness with the players and with the officials. As long as is like that, we are in a good road."

I love this bra, I bought it to wear after my breast surgery, it's great for keeping your bust in place and to feel secure. I will continue to wear it, I have 2 of them. I like the quality. thank you
Women tend toward round shoulders as we age. Lionisa is a reminder to stand tall and roll our shoulders back. It doesn't do the work for me. It gently reminds me to stand tall. Improved posture makes wearers appear more youthful. Front closures are difficult in that I rely on a mirror or my glasses to align and fasten hooks easily. Results are worth it though and I've been recommending back support Lionisa to friends.

Five Displaced in Wyndmoor Fire
A fire rips through a house in the corner of East Gravers Lane and Stenton Avenue.
A house fire in the 500 block of East Gravers Lane in Wyndmoor displaced five residents and closed the street for about five hours. According to Springfield Township Fire Marshal Charles Baily, the fire started at about 7 a.m. The house was occupied when the fire started, but everyone escaped unharmed. No fire fighters were injured. The house, a large 3-plus story structure in the corner of East Gravers Lane and Stenton Avenue, is a one-family dwelling, Baily said. "It's a huge, old house," Baily said. "It's got a lot of rooms and an open 3-story staircase." Baily said the residents have made arrangements to stay with local friends or relatives. The last fire fighters started packing up and leaving the scene at about 12:15 p.m. The cause …

Ahoy! You Scurvy Dogs! (in a nice way, of course).
My also-male long-time companion (gasp) are getting legally married in San Francisco on August 8, 2008 and would like to have a FSM officiator at the service. The state also has a One-Day Deputization for a non-accredited officiator.
Also, any local Pastafarians or Noodletarians are invited. The hall will have images of His Noodliness and (one of) the themes is a Pirate ship.
Please contact me for an invitation.
May you all be Touched.

Bravo is an American cable television channel owned by NBCUniversal launched by Cablevision as an advertisement-free premium channel in December 1980.[1][2] According to Nielsen Ratings Data, Bravo is currently available in 88 million homes.[1]
In the early 2000s it switched from covering performing arts, drama, and indie film to being focused on pop culture like reality shows, fashion shows, makeovers, celebrities, and so forth. Bravo's programming schedule includes feature films, primarily from the Universal catalog. Bravo also airs reruns of series from parent network NBC, and produces original reality content, most popularly The Real Housewives of..., Inside the Actors Studio, and others. Bravo's corporate offices are at NBC's Rockefeller Center in New York. Andy Cohen is the Senior Vice President of Production and Programming.

Bravo launched as a commercial-free premium channel on December 1, 1980 owned by Cablevision's Rainbow Media; the channel claims to be "the first television service dedicated to film and the performing arts".[3] Cablevision launched Bravo as a premium channel available two days a week and sharing channel space with the softcore porn channel Escapade.[4] In 1981, Bravo had 48,000 subscribers in the U.S.; four years later there were around 350,000.[5] A 1985 profile of Bravo in The New York Times observed that most programming consisted of international, classic, and independent film. On Bravo, celebrities such as E. G. Marshall and Roberta Peters provided opening and closing commentary to the films.[5] Performing arts on Bravo included the show Jazz Counterpoint.[5] During the mid-1980s, Bravo converted from a premium channel to a basic cable channel.[6] By the mid-1990s, Bravo began adding sponsorships as PBS did and included commercial breaks by 1998.[4] Bravo signed an underwriting deal with Texaco in 1992 and within a month broadcast the first Texaco Showcase production, a stage adaptation of Romeo and Juliet.[7]
In the Encyclopedia of Television, Megan Mullen perceived certain Bravo programs as "considered too risky or eclectic for mainstream channels". Those programs were Karaoke and Cold Lazarus, the final serials by British playwright Dennis Potter shown by Bravo in June 1997, and Michael Moore's documentary series The Awful Truth from 1999.[7]
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer owned a 20% stake in the channel from 1999 to 2001. NBC bought the network in 2002 for $1.25B; it had owned a stake in it and its siblings for several years up to that point.[8] Parent company General Electric merged NBC with Vivendi Universal Entertainment in May 2004 to form NBC Universal.
Bravo's "makeover" came in 2003 with reality series Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, which hit 3.5 million viewers.[2] Entertainment Weekly put "Bravo reality shows" on its end-of-the-decade, "best-of" list, saying, "From Queer Eye for the Straight Guy's Fab Five to Project Runway's fierce fashionistas to the kvetching, perma-tanned Real Housewives, Bravo's quirky reality programming mixes high culture and low scruples to create deliciously addictive television."[9]
A study released in May 2008 ranked Bravo as the most recognizable brand among gay consumers.[10] Bravo's age demographic is people 18-54, according to the Cable Television Advertising Bureau's cable television profiles.[1]
This section does not cite any references or sources. (October 2009) |
Bravo utilizes block programming for both new shows and existing ones. Bravo has also had success with programming franchises. These include: Project Runway; Top Chef, The Real Housewives of..., franchises and Flipping Out. Which are all still on the air today.
NBC Olympics[edit]
In 2004 and 2006, Bravo carried coverage of the Olympic Games during the overnights and mornings produced by NBC Sports. In 2008, the channel carried no coverage, as NBCUniversal had acquired Oxygen, allowing Bravo to continue to carry their general programming schedule during NBC coverage of the Games. In 2012, the network served as the near-exclusive home for the Games's tennis tournament at Wimbledon, with up to 56 hours of coverage except for the men's and women's singles finals, which aired over NBC.[11]
Bravo HD[edit]
Bravo HD (known on-air as HD by Bravo in line with the network's imaging campaign) is a 1080i high definition simulcast of Bravo. It launched on October 3, 2007, and DirecTV was the first provider to add it.[12] It is also available on Dish Network, Verizon FiOS, AT&T Uverse, Cablevision, and some Comcast, Cox Communications, Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks[13] systems.
This is the second version of Bravo HD; the current Universal HD launched as Bravo HD+ in August 2003. Bravo HD+ had a completely different schedule than the regular Bravo and aired only HD programs. The current Bravo HD airs programs in both high definition and standard definition.
Relationship with international Bravo channels[edit]
An Australian channel called Arena re-branded its presentation in 2008 to align with Bravo as a result of an agreement with Bravo Media. Arena uses the Bravo slogan "Watch What Happens" and has access to Bravo-produced programming.[14]
A Canadian version of Bravo was launched in 1995 by CHUM Limited. The channel originally aired much of the same genres of programming aired by its American counterpart. However, since Bravo USA's shift towards reality programming, Bravo Canada airing more dramas, and its adoption of a new logo in 2012 with little semblance to Bravo USA's current branding, there is now essentially no connection between the two channels. The channel still airs the few arts-related series aired by Bravo USA (such as Inside the Actors Studio and Work of Art), but due to Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulations which require the channel to still air programming related to arts, Bravo Canada does not air the vast majority of the U.S. channel's reality series—most of them have been picked up by other Canadian specialty channels.
United Kingdom[edit]
In the United Kingdom, a TV channel called Bravo launched in 1985 independently of the U.S. service. The British channel, which closed on January 1, 2011, focused on men's programming for most of its existence, and never carried an arts or pop-culture format, nor much, if any, of the U.S. channel's programming.

DOBSON — In these troubled economic times, it is often necessary to put off taking care of yourself, but the Surry County Health and Nutrition Center is offering some help for this year's impending flu season.
County officials say the center is offering a limited number of free flue vaccines to the general public.
The vaccine is being supplied by the state of North Carolina and will be administered on a first-come, first-served basis.
"The vaccine is available to anyone 6 months of age or older," said Thomas Williams, spokesman for the county's health and nutrition center.
Members of the public can come to the center, located in the County Government Building in Dobson, on Monday through Friday, between 8:15 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., or from 1 to 4:30 p.m., Williams said.
"There is no appointment necessary," he noted.
For more information about this year's flu, visit www.surry.com.

I'm a big sucker for fan art – well, appropriate fan art – and that's why I've been pounding my desk all morning over the news that the world's biggest patent troll is going after Etsy's new $40 million investment. But while soulless thieves are going after the sources of the Internet's showcases for art and inspiration, they'll thankfully never be able to crush the actual artists. At least not yet. I'm sure they'll find a way eventually.
My Internet Artist of the Day of the Week goes to the guys at Double Scribble, a Tumblr site devoted to NBA fan art.
Double Scribble is the lovechild of basketball and art; two of Nick Kastner and Mike McGrath's favorite things in the world. From the coldest, murkiest depths of Cleveland, OH (and now to some extent, some obscure part of North Carolina) Nick and Mike have forged a blog out of blood, sweat and tears in their unwavering vision to provide you, the viewer, with a never ending source of basketball related art.
And it's pretty awesome. I've been shuffling back and forth through its archives since a friend emailed the link last week and there is just a ton of great artwork on this site that has really inspired me to consider re-launching my web comic series, "The Erotic Adventures of a Sports Blogger." Spoiler alert: it's sad and gross.
After the jump, I've included many of my favorite efforts of Double Scribble's authors, but I encourage you to check out the submissions that they've posted from other artists as well. It's a highly recommended worm hole to limit your productivity today.

Pod Farm Protools plugs are dry ! HELP i'm going to be crazy
Like (0)
My win7 x64 is up to date, everything is ok with my "toneport di gold",
every plug i open in protools see the DI and all the packs but the sound is dry,
the pod farm 2.5 standalone is working fine.
I try to fix this problem since monday.......!
Why can't i refund to ilok version ? The tone port di gold was at a upper price than the ilok version when i baught it, and of course the ilok was not existing at this time.
Thank you.
Line6 support, i need a ticket !
Some are working.... but not all the authorised packs i have in the di gold, just 2 or 3 reverbs for exemple.
I need a ticket !
I think i need a ticket
i need a ticket !
thank you
Completely uninstall POD Farm 2.50, then, download and install POD Farm 2.51 from the Line 6 downloads page.
An error message pops up at startup with the following: Pro Tools could not load the following plug-ins either because no valid authorization could be found, the iLok key was not connected or the plug-in was damaged. It also lists the POD Farm 2 and POD Farm Elements plug-ins below the message.
This is a Windows-based problem and seems to be an issue if Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable is not updated or installed properly on the computer system. Using Windows Update to install/update Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable so that POD Farm 2.5 can have access to the libraries it needs to run correctly usually fixes the problem.
If you are using a Custom Plug-in folder location for your DAW, make sure to delete the old POD Farm 2 and POD Farm Elements plug-in files from that location, and move the new POD Farm 2.51 plug-in files to that same location.

The company began business operations in August this year. The logistics service provider has leased a unit with a total area of almost 4,500 sq m which will be equipped and serve as a pharmaceutical state-of-the-art warehouse. The US-based developer ProLogis is the developer of the ProLogis Park in Senec. Cushman & Wakefield, a real estate consultancy, was involved in the transaction. "MOVIANTO was looking for warehousing space in Bratislava, or in the vicinity of the D1 motorway. As the storage of pharmaceutical goods must be done fulfilling the most stringent requirements, the warehousing space has to meet this wide range of quality standards. Cushman & Wakefield opened a tendering procedure for developers, resulting in several developers and owners of warehousing facilities in the required locality signing up for the tendering procedure. Following consultations with the Cushman & Wakefield team, MOVIANTO selected ProLogis with their logistics park in Senec near Bratislava as the winning developer," says Martin Baláž of Cushman & Wakefield, who was involved in the transaction. Movianto Slovensko s.r.o is part of the European Movianto Group, a logistics company specialised in pharmaceutical logistics and services along the supply chain. The Group is present in 13 European countries and serves large pharmaceutical companies with their logistic and distribution needs. At present, the last 5,000 sq m out of a total of 180,000 sq m are still unoccupied in the ProLogis Park in Senec. Developer ProLogis is preparing the construction of another approximately 70,000 sq m of warehousing space in Senec. For further information please contact Mgr.

One of the best finishes in recent memory will make the 2013 Bryan County Basketball Tournament go down as one for the ages.
Boswell took a 58-57 win over Calera to capture the tournament championship as Scorpion Markell Henderson and a trio of Bulldogs exchanged late three-pointers in a classic battle of wills.
Henderson scored 17 points to go with 13 rebounds and four blocks to lead Boswell, capturing his second tournament MVP award in three weeks. Cameron Collier added 16 for the victorious Scorpions (18-4).
Jonathon Diamond led the Bulldogs with 17, including three from behind the arc. Preston Barkley scored 14 and Braxton Barton had 13 for Calera. Conner Hamilton pulled in 15 rebounds to help the Bulldogs take a 46-33 advantage on the boards.
In the first half, Henderson delivered a pair of crowd-pleasing dunks to help Boswell build a lead as high as 10 points. A 15-9 first quarter helped the Scorps maintain a lead until the final minute of the game.
Barkley and Barton sparked a Bulldog rally in the third, but Boswell quickly rebuilt a double-digit lead and led 48-40 going into the fourth quarter.
Tyler Black hit a three to cut Boswell's lead to 50-44, then Barton took a steal to the house to cut the deficit to four. Caleb Brown's jumper completed a four-point Boswell run to push the lead back to eight.
Diamond hit a corner three, then Calera scooped up a loose ball which led to the first of a pair of Barkley triples which gave the Bulldogs (11-8)a brief 57-55 lead with 40 seconds to go.
The teams traded turnovers in a frantic final minute, until Henderson's pull-up three rocked Bloomer Sullivan Arena at the 10 second mark. He then blocked Diamond on the other end, forcing Calera to foul while running off the final seconds.
The All-Tournament team included Cameron Collier of Boswell, Diamond and Barton from Calera, as well as Kendall Shives of Silo and Preston Rice of Colbert.
Boys Third Place – Silo 52 Tushka 46 (OT)
Leonard Sandler scored 18 and Kendall Shives scored six of his 12 [points in overtime to help the Rebels escape with a 52-46 win over Tushka in the third-place game of the Bryan County Tournament on Saturday.
Tushka took a 9-5 lead after one quarter and still led 21-16 at the half before Silo tied the game at 26-all. Sandler and Andrew Bolin scored from close range and benefited from defensive tenacity in the form of blocked shots by Jarris Hamilton and Lance House.
But a pair of threes from Tigers' Lane Faulkenberry kept Tushka on top going to the final frame. There, an 8-2 Silo run pushed the Rebels ahead. Garrette Wall's shot off the glass and a pair of free throws from Jody Moreland allowed Tushka to tie the game.
Wall came up with a huge block under the Silo basket to force overtime, where Shives was able to put the game away by getting into the lane and taking advantage of Tushka's foul trouble. Silo outscored the Tigers 9-3 in overtime.
Moreland led the Tigers with 14 points, followed by 13 for Faulkenberry. Lance House added eight for Silo, Bolin had seven, Hunter Jackson four and Hamilton three.

G'day all, If Ozdozer or Oldmagnet or some of you highly experienced guys can tell me if I can get the D2 starter pinion out of my D2-5U if I remove the governor housing cover ? There seems to be no other way to get it out from my attempts so far.
The pinion throws out to early once I load the pony with diesel compression.
My D2 came from Perth and has damaged pinion latches that I could see thru the little inspection hole near the left foot po'sn. So no choice but to go thru the whole pony lift etc.
Thanks, Christopher

In a general form interest in science, and in particular technological and scientific research, was always the main goal in my professional plan of carrier. Allied to the need of specialized learning, I understand that academic research can provide a level of knowledge to face the professional challenges of the present world.
I am currently a research associate and casual academic at the University of Newcastle - Australia, where I have been awarded a PhD for studies in corrosion analysis and prediction. I initiated my studies on steel structures as a research trainee in 2004 at the Federal University of Vicosa - Brazil, where I graduated as a civil engineer in 2007. My interest for engineering scientific research lead me to the EESC University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, and as result of completing a master's degree in structural engineering in 2008, design guidelines for cold-formed composite steel and concrete beams were added to the Brazilian Standard of Steel Design. Research interests include structural reliability and assessment of infrastructure.

- Corrosion and Deterioration Modelling
Defined as the destruction of a material due to its reaction with the environment, corrosion poses a serious threat to new and existing infrastructure. Understanding such phenomena is detrimental when considering long term prediction of structural service life.
- Structural Reliability and Assessment of Structures
Detecting the role of existent uncertainties in structural projects in terms of risk and structural failure has been proven to be a major step in modern engineering design, assisting adequate allocation of resources and decision making.
- Numerical and Computational Methods Applied to Structural Engineering
Once real life applications adopt differential equations for elements of scientific nature, engineering computational methods is a powerful tool for approximating accurate solutions for such complex engineering problems.
- Experimental Methods and Material Analysis of Structures
Understanding modern engineering experimentation including design, system calibration, data acquisition, analysis and presentation is a key skill for any academic engineer.
- Structural Stability and Evaluation of Steel Elements and Composite Systems - Theory and Design
The key to efficient structural design is the optimization of the mechanics, properties and behaviours behind the materials and shapes of structural elements. Understanding your structure in accordance with the applicable codes of practice a more reliable, efficient and durable structure can be built.

MARTIN, Tenn. – UT Martin quarterback Derek Carr, defensive back Thad Williams and wide receivers Jeremy Butler and Quentin Sims earned College Football Performance Awards (CFPA) Ohio Valley Conference honors for their effort in the record-setting 66-59 victory over rival Murray State Saturday.
Carr, a senior from nearby McKenzie, was named the National Quarterback of the Week and the National Performer of the Week.
Carr completed 42-of-46 passes (91.3%) for 560 yards and seven touchdowns without an interception or being sacked as his team improved to 5-2 on the year and 3-1 in OVC play.
He had touchdown passes of 22, 15, 22, 34, 17, 42 and 34 yards in the victory. The seven touchdown passes set the UT Martin school record (and momentarily tied the OVC record, until broken later in the game by Murray State's Casey Brockman), as did his 560 passing yards. The seven touchdown passes pushed his career total to 54, setting a new Skyhawk career mark in that category as well. The 560 passing yards are the second-most in a single game in the FCS this season and the seven touchdowns are tied for second among all FCS players.
During the game Carr moved into seventh place on the OVC career passing list (7,172), ninth place in career completions (559) and 10th in career total offense (7,205). Carr currently ranks sixth nationally in total passing yards (2,020), seventh in passing yards/game (288.57), 14th in total offense (284.29 yards/game), 16th in passing efficiency (146.22) and completions (22.57/game) an 14th in total offense (284.29 yards/game), 16th in passing efficiency (146.22) and completions (22.57/game) and 20th in points responsible for (13.71/game).
Williams, from Adell, Ga., started the game by intercepting Murray State's Casey Brockman and returning it 42 yards for a touchdown to put UT Martin up 7-0 just 1:29 into the game. That set the tone as the Skyhawks would not trail in the game on its way to a 66-59 shootout victory. Williams also had a key pass breakup down the stretch as the Racers were attempting to tie the game. Williams finished the game with six tackles (5 solo) and a tackle-for-loss.
Butler, a wide receiver from Bradenton, Fla.,set the UT Martin record for touchdown receptions in a game, catching eight passes for 177 yards and four touchdowns in the Skyhawks 66-59 shootout win over Murray State on Saturday.
He caught a 22-yarder in the first quarter, a 34-yard score and a 17-yard score in the second quarter and capped his quartet of touchdowns with a 42-yard score to open the third quarter. The four touchdown receptions are tied for the most by a FCS player in a game this season.
Sims, a wide receiver from Cincinnati, Ohio, caught 12 passes for 146 yards and two touchdowns.

Your floor is literally and figuratively the foundation of every room in your home. And it doesn't matter if you're designing for a house, an apartment, or a loft, ultimately you want a beautiful covering for your foundation. Utilized for centuries for both durability and appearance, Ceramic Tile offers a vast amount of colors, textures, and patterns to choose from.
The gorgeous styles found in our Natural, Rustic, Slate, and Classic Collections of Mohawk Ceramic Tile give your surfaces the finish of natural marbles, travertines, and other picturesque stones. In addition to its visual appeal, tile will not absorb odors or support bacteria, thus making it appropriate for kitchens and bathrooms as well as great rooms, sun rooms and foyers.
As you embark on your flooring adventures, it is important to take into account the different types of Ceramic Tile and characteristics of each. Learning about the properties that distinguish our Glazed Ceramic, Glazed Porcelain, and ColorBody Porcelain can better assist you in finding the perfect fit. Testing for qualities like scratch–hardness and water absorption lend invaluable knowledge during the shopping process.
For instance, styles like the (Ristano/Risalto) and (Del Norte/Delgado) found in our Natural Collection also feature tile designed for walls and countertops. It should be noted that most wall tile is glazed with a semi–gloss or matte surface that typically has less slip resistance than tile designed specifically for flooring. By including the Coefficient of Friction (slip resistance) for every tile type Mohawk has to offer, we can find the appropriate finish for any surface.
You've come to Mohawk for options — together we can make sure you leave with the right one.
We at Mohawk strive to produce attractive, affordable solutions for your surface needs and our Glazed Ceramic Tile succeeds in doing just that.
Found in nearly all of our tile collections, styles such as Sierra and [CERAMIC WILLOW GLEN] achieve the look of natural marbles and stones for your floor without added cost.
In an age–old creation process, clays are mined, ground to fine powders, blended with water, pressed together to form the body of the tile and finally dried to reduce moisture content.
After being coated with glass–forming minerals and stained with a colored glaze, the tile is fired in kilns at approximately 2000° Fahrenheit to form the finished product.
From (Monticino/Travino) to (Sorriso/Seguro), (Riverstone/Stone Creek) to (Borghesi/Alviano), our Glazed Porcelain can be found in every Mohawk collection of Ceramic Tile.
Although similar to our Glazed Ceramic Tile in surface, the blend of fine–grain clays and other minerals that compose our Porcelain translates into a more dense body. As a result, these styles are highly resistant to moisture, staining and wear.
Strong enough for exposure to freeze/thaw cycles, outdoor use of our Glazed Porcelain should be confined to covered areas.
The Montara and Trapani styles that highlight our Slate Collection are made from ColorBody™ Porcelain, the densest of all Mohawk tile types.
With a through–color body and a water absorption rate of less than 0.5%, these styles are created with your heavy traffic area in mind.
Whether making a restaurant patron–proof or turning your own patio into a fine–dining establishment, ColorBody Porcelain is ideal for any indoor or outdoor, commercial or residential location.

Digital preservation is the active management of digital information over time to ensure its accessibility. Preservation of digital information is widely considered to require more constant and ongoing attention than preservation of other media. This constant input of effort, time, and money to handle rapid technological and organizational advance is considered a major stumbling block for preserving digital information. Indeed, while we are still able to read our written heritage from several thousand years ago, the digital information created merely a decade ago is in serious danger of being lost, creating a digital Dark Age.
