GAME REVIEW: Hectic brawler 'Anarchy Reigns' priced just right
Platinum Games, the developers of "Bayonetta," "MadWorld" and "Vanquish," have created another action-packed game called "Anarchy Reigns," which has finally released in the U.S. after being available in Japan under another name, "Max Anarchy."
Fans of the developer will feel right at home playing this over-the-top brawler set in a post-apocalyptic future where players take the role of "MadWorld" star and bounty hunter Jack Cayman and Leonhardt "Leo" Victorion," who works for the government as an agent. They are on the hunt for Maximillian Caxton, a former leader of the Bureau's Strike One unit and current fugitive. As the game progresses, new, kooky characters will enter the fray, sometimes giving you the option to play as them. You'll also want to play the campaign mode first to unlock these characters in multiplayer, where you'll spend all your time after completing the silly story. Sixteen are playable, plus Bayonetta if you preordered the game.
Learning all the moves isn't complicated at all. Most will find themselves mashing the weak and strong attack buttons. Doing this will fill up a bar where Killer Weapon attacks can be performed by holding the left trigger. These moves are great for bigger enemies like Mutants or clearing out numerous smaller ones like Killseekers. Pressing the X and A buttons at the same time will unleash a 360-degree attack to give you some room, but I rarely used it since it costs a little bit of health. There are also jump attacks for airborne enemies, objects can be picked up and tossed around, and successfully grabbing someone will result in brutal punishment. Rampage mode gives you super strength for a small amount of time and is great for beating up the big boys quicker. If two characters at once hit each other with Rampage, a hectic button-mashing mini-game begins. Defensive mechanics include dodging and blocking, which I mainly used during boss battles and bigger enemies. Items like shields and grenades also can be used. Pretty much, all the basic brawling mechanics are available.
There are two types of missions: Free and Main. Free missions are little distractions that can be played numerous times to rack up points to unlock more missions. There's little variety here, ranging from dispatching a certain amount of enemies in a time limit to pushing around giant balls into goals. There's even one where you control a hovercraft and race around setting enemies on fire with a flamethrower. Main missions advance the story, and have you fighting off more of the same enemies with the occasional showdown with a character.
Unfortunately, single player doesn't have a lot of depth to it, and really could have used larger overworlds and more missions. There's a day-night cycle where the easier enemies run away and harder ones come out, but in the end there's very little challenge, at least on normal difficulty. The army of smaller enemies that chase you down can be pummeled easily by mashing the regular attack buttons. I recommend hard mode for more experienced players.
Playing through the campaign is good practice for online play, where the real meat is at. A variety of game modes await, including one-on-one cage fights, Capture the Flag and Battle Royale, among others. Even though I lost a lot thanks to my amateur skills and gameplan, it was hectic fun. There will be times in 16-player matches where it can get a little too crazy and kills are stolen or your cheap-shotted from behind when attacking someone else. Action Trigger Events like a plane crashing nearby and black holes appearing out of nowhere make things even more crazy. After playing a few rounds, I didn't mind going back to the slower pace of cage matches for a breather.
With a niche title like this, there's always the fear the online community will move on a few months after release. Fortunately, bots are included in the package for this worst-case scenario.
What I also find appealing about "Anarchy Reigns" is the cost. Most console games retail for $59.99, and this game would have been hard to recommend for that price. This multiplayer brawler is only $29.99, priced just right if you're looking for a not-so-serious game to blow off some steam.
3 stars out of 4

Dear Editor,
Visiting the Clerk of Courts office or the Title office usually isn't listed among anyone's favorite activities; however, if you have visited either of these offices in Meigs County over the past four years, you can appreciate the positive changes that Diane Lynch, current Clerk of Courts, has brought about.
Lynch, her employees, and probationers cleaned, painted, and reorganized the offices on evenings and weekends at no cost to the taxpayers. An updated computer system means that more information can be accessed online. The Title Office was moved into a larger office, allowing more space and increased efficiency. An ATM machine was installed outside the Clerk's office for public convenience. Lynch has also been very active in collecting past due court costs, and collected over $3,000 last month alone. Lynch has made many improvements that benefit the public.
Lynch is a widow as a result of a car accident that claimed the life of her husband. For 28 years, she has served the county in the Clerk's office. Lynch's experience is a valuable asset to Meigs County that cannot be duplicated by any other candidate currently running. Lynch's experience offers Meigs County taxpayers more value for their tax dollars than any of the other candidates. The taxpayers do not have to pay to train a new Clerk. The other three candidates for Clerk of Courts all have jobs; and just want to change to another job. Why go after a Clerk who has done nothing but improve the offices and work diligently for the good of Meigs County. My family stands behind Diane Lynch; and we ask that you join us on November 6th, and offer your support as well. Please help us re-elect Diane Lynch as Meigs County Clerk of Courts.

Secondary Teacher Education Programme (STEP)
Download STEP 2013 Prospectus (Low Quality - 712 KB)
Download STEP 2013 Prospectus (High Quality - 1.53 MB)
Watch Introduction to STEP Video
The Secondary Teacher Education Programme (STEP) is for practicing and prospective teachers. STEP takes exceptional graduates and works with them to develop their skills and shape them into teachers and mentors who can inspire and teach. On completing STEP, graduates will teach The Institute of Ismaili Studies' Secondary Curriculum to Ismaili students worldwide aged between 11 and 16. The master's level teacher preparation aspect of STEP is being undertaken through a pioneering collaboration between the University of London's Institute of Education (IOE) and The Institute of Ismaili Studies.
The programme extends over two academic years and culminates in two postgraduate awards: a Master of Teaching (MTeach) and Master of Arts, Education (Muslim Societies and Civilisations). Following completion of the academic programme in London, participants proceed to work in the field as Secondary Teachers employed by their national Ismaili Tariqah and Religious Education Board (ITREB).
What are the key features of the MTeach and MA Education (Muslim Societies and Civilisations) programme?
The Master of Teaching (MTeach) and Master of Arts, Education (Muslim Societies and Civilisations) is a concurrent programme of study which leads to two postgraduate degrees. The programme is designed for Ismaili students with an undergraduate degree who wish to become teachers primarily within the Ismaili religious education system worldwide. For those already in the teaching profession, the programme will enhance their professional learning by integrating a humanistic, civilisational and normative approach to the study of Islam into their teaching practice.
A Double Master's Degree
The STEP programme comprises two interwoven Master's degrees, namely the Master of Teaching (MTeach) and the Master of Arts in Education (Muslim Societies and Civilisations). The
MTeach, led by the Institute of Education, allows participants to utilise their teaching experiences as the basis for informed critical reflection on their personal and professional learning. Modules such as Leading Learning also allow course participants to gain the knowledge, understanding and tools for successful subject leadership and change management.
Teachers' experience in the classroom environment is the basis of all assessed coursework and therefore the MTeach provides guidance for participants in practice-based research design and implementation strategies.
The MA Education is structured around the IIS Secondary Curriculum which is designed to provide a deep insight into Ismaili heritage within the broader dimensions of Muslim Societies and Civilisations. It prepares participants to understand and respond analytically to relevant scholarship and research in order to facilitate an understanding of the philosophical and pedagogical framework of the various secondary curriculum modules published by The Institute of Ismaili Studies.
Practicum – Teaching in Practice
The practicum stream gives students an opportunity to develop their teaching and reflection skills within the classroom. The practicum comprises the following:
- Teaching the IIS Secondary Curriculum and developing teaching practice
- Introduction to research and research data analysis
In addition, students teach for three terms in Ismaili Muslim religious education classrooms in the United Kingdom or Europe. They will also spend a total of four months in their home context during their second year of study working once again in the Religious Education Centres as trainee teachers. During the practicum experience, students compile a portfolio of evidence for assessment which demonstrates their progress as teachers and reflective practitioners. The final portfolio will include clear evidence of teaching practice, integrated with critical reflections and engagement with theory.
UK secondary school placement
Students are given an opportunity to experience the UK educational context throughout the first year of study. Each student is allocated a secondary school in London or the surrounding regions, where they will have the opportunity to observe and deliver lessons in a number of subjects. Students are also provided with a school based mentor, who will provide guidance in developing their teaching practices
Field Trips
STEP field trips take place in the first year of the programme and aim to provide a holistic understanding of the historical content that they will eventually bring to life in the classroom. Students visit Cairo, Egypt and Andalusia, Spain. Accompanied by IIS faculty and local tour guides, students are exposed to significant examples of Islamic Art and Architecture. Prior readings, orientation sessions and an evaluation programme help to enrich their experience of these regions.
What are the key outcomes of the programme?
STEP caters directly for students wishing to embark upon a career in teaching within the wider Aga Khan Network of Institutions, with a particular focus on teaching at the Ismaili Religious Education Centres (RECs) at the secondary level.
Participants are trained to deliver the IIS Secondary Curriculum, which provides particular emphasis on humanistic, civilisational and normative perspectives in the instruction of religious education.
Upon completion of the programme, participants will have gained a sound knowledge on subject matter that positions itself around the IIS Secondary Curriculum framework, as well as broad insights into pedagogy, thus allowing teachers to apply this skill in a variety of educational spheres.
Through field based research, educational trips to Cairo and Andalusia, UK REC and secondary school placements and a four month formative teaching practice in the home context, participants will develop a holistic understanding of educational practice both in terms of the role of a teacher as well as the role of an educational leader.
As they develop an increasingly sophisticated understanding of learning environments and student needs, course participants are assessed through summative essay writing, formative in-term presentations on classroom instruction and practice based research projects. In turn, participants will gain deep insights into religious education instruction within a community framework.Top of page
The programme is currently open in thirteen countries only: Canada, France, India, Kenya, Pakistan, Portugal, Syria, Tajikistan, Tanzania, UAE, Uganda, UK and the USA. Therefore only individuals from the Ismaili community of these countries are eligible to apply at the present time.
Upon completion of the programme, participants will return to their home countries, where they will be deployed as teachers for a minimum period of three years with the Ismaili Tariqah and Religious Education Board/Committee (ITREB/C) in their country.
For an application pack for STEP Cohort 7, please contact your national ITREB or email email@example.com
The application deadline date is Monday 24 September 2012
At present, STEP is a fully-funded scholarship programme. Successful applicants receive accommodation and a living allowance (stipend) during their stay in London. Programme-related travel costs are also covered.
For further information, please contact: email@example.com.

Park Ridge business sells signings from the stars
Sports enthusiast Dan Parker, holding a signed lithograph of Taylor Swift, operates Hobbs Hobby Hut, an online memorabilia business, in Park Ridge. | Joel Lerner~Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: February 25, 2013 11:17AM
Dan Parker's business, Hobbs Hobby Hut, gives him access to today's biggest sports stars.
But getting gear signed by Jonathan Toews and Brian Urlacher isn't about turning a big profit. Parker sells coveted autographed sports memorabilia for the love of the game.
"It is about making money like any business but it's not like breaking the bank," he said. "I wasn't getting into this to get rich or retire. I understand it's all about putting a smile on (someone's) face."
Parker and his wife, Katie, operate Hobbs Hobby Hut's online storefront from Park Ridge. They specialize in supplying one-of-a-kind memorabilia on consignment for charity fundraisers.
Parker, a self-declared sports nut and longtime collector of baseball cards, started Hobbs Hobby Hut as a side business a decade ago. Last year he left a career in corporate purchasing to make it his full-time job.
The company — which is named for Robert Redford's character in "The Natural," Roy Hobbs — does more than supply run-of-the-mill autographed jerseys.
Parker uses creative framing and unique inscriptions to provide memorabilia most people hadn't seen before, such as a "Derrick Rose MVP '11" autograph or a throwback football helmet signed by Bears Hall Of Famers Gale Sayers and Mike Ditka.
What sells, however, depends on what's happening in the world of sports. No one wanted hockey gear during the NHL lockout, Parker said. When a player gets traded, signed gear can become worthless.
"It's a tough market because auctions sometimes do as well as Chicago teams," Parker said.
Yet typically there are more wins than loses. Memorabilia from aging and deceased Hall of Famers tends to increase in value over time. Parker expects D-Rose's comeback to provide a boost for items signed by the Bulls' number one player.
Since counterfeits and forgeries put a damper on the market for signed collectibles, the only ways Parker gets his goods are by witnessing an autographing in person, and taking in items verified by the Professional Sports Authenticator.
Hobbs Hobby Hut also works to appeal to a variety of tastes and offer different price points. One of its most popular items features vintage photos of Chicago's four sports stadiums. A map of the city's neighborhoods and photos of the Chicago River dyed green for St. Patrick's Day are also good sellers.
Over the last year the company began working with an auction packaging agency to create unique experiences: a trip to The Masters, a hot air balloon excursion, and the chance to drive a NASCAR racecar.
The only memorabilia not for sale is part of Parker's personal collection, which includes items bearing Michael Jordan's mark.
"He's a tough autograph to get," Parker said of the basketball legend.
Another prized possession is an original program book and collage of player autographs from the 1961 World Series champion Yankees.
As for the age-old question of which Chicago baseball team he sides with, Parker maintains neutrality.
"People ask, 'Are you a Cubs fan or a Sox fan?'" he said. "I'm a sports fan. I'll go to any event I can."

Nissan drops GT-R engine in the Juke-R: Video
Nissan, in its quest to garner as many Facebook "likes" as possible, released the fourth video in its Juke-R series.
This clip shows Nissan engineers planning how to shoehorn the massive 3.8-liter, twin-turbo V6 from the GT-R in the Juke's engine bay, made for a 1.6-liter. First they had to support the frame by welding a jig in place. Then they can attempt to mate the engine and the frame, customizing spots for mounts and plumbing.
Heat management is key, according to Nissan, considering the 480-hp transplant produces massive amounts of heat. That means that the bodywork has to make aerodynamic sense and all of the heat shields need to be placed properly. The entire cooling package will be ported over from the GT-R.
On Tuesday, Nissan revealed the first Juke-R for journalists in Spain, in all of its carbon-fiber and matte-finish glory. Nissan doesn't plan to sell the Frankensteined crossover, but two have been made as engineering exercises--one right-hand drive and one left-hand drive.
Testing of the car begins in November.

Update: May 13, 2013
Approximately $1.5 billion of the funds recovered in the national settlement are being used to compensate borrowers who lost their home to foreclosure during the period of January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2011. The deadline to submit a claim form has now passed. If you have submitted a claim form, the Settlement Administrator Rust Consulting, will contact you if any additional information is needed to complete your claim.
Rust Consulting can be reached at 1-866-430-8358. Checks to borrowers who submitted claim forms are expected to be mailed mid-2013. The processing of the claim forms is underway and until it is completed, the exact dollar amount of the payments is not determined, however, it is anticipated it will exceed the minimum payment of $840 that was indicated on the claim form. Borrowers who submitted claims have been contacted if additional information is needed for the processing of the claims. The Settlement Administrator is not authorized to release specific information about the number of claims submitted at this time, pending the conclusion of the distribution process.
Please be aware that Rust Consulting is also the settlement Administrator for the Independent Foreclosure Review (IFR) Payment Agreement obtained by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve Board. The IFR settlement is completely separate from the National Mortgage Settlement and does not include the same governmental agencies. The IFR payments began in mid-April of 2013, and will continue in mailings until July 2013. You can find additional information on the OCC Independent Foreclosure Review settlement at this website: http://occ.gov/topics/consumer-protection/foreclosure-prevention/correct...
You may be eligible for payments under both settlements. Accepting a payment from either settlement will not affect any rights you may have to take legal action related to your foreclosure.
Homeowners should also be wary of scams. Unscrupulous companies are contacting homeowners with offers of assistance for a fee to receive the settlement payment. You should not pay a fee to receive a payment under either agreement.
Federal Government & Attorneys General reach landmark settlement with major banks
Roughly $25 billion in relief for distressed borrowers, states and federal government...
In February 2012, 49 state attorneys general and the federal government announced a historic joint state-federal settlement with the country's five largest mortgage servicers:
The settlement provides as much as $25 billion in relief to distressed borrowers and direct payments to states and the federal government. It's the largest multistate settlement since the Tobacco Settlement in 1998.
The agreement settles state and federal investigations finding that the country's five largest mortgage servicers routinely signed foreclosure related documents outside the presence of a notary public and without really knowing whether the facts they contained were correct. Both of these practices violate the law. The settlement provides benefits to borrowers whose loans are owned by the settling banks as well as to many of the borrowers whose loans they service.
- About the Settlement: Learn about the settlement, who is affected and what claims may still be pursued against the banks. Find links to your state Attorney General's Office to find state-specific information and contacts.
- Help for Borrowers: Learn how to find out if your loan is affected by this settlement, the timeline for relief, how you will know if you are eligible. Find links to your state Attorney General's Office to find state-specific information and contacts.
- News: Read the national news release and find links to your state Attorney General's Web site for state-specific news.

I'm new here, so I'll give a brief intro. I typically do some small shows on the side (weddings, small parties, reunions, etc.) for a little extra money to pay off student loans. My setup consists of 2 Mackie Thump TH-15A's (powered), a Numark M6 USB mixer, cheap XLR cables that came with the Thumps, and Virtual DJ Pro Basic. The speakers and cables are less than a year old and the mixer is about 3 years old but seems to be in good working condition. I use an audio cable and a USB cable between my laptop and mixer and have never had a problem with that setup in VDJ over the last 3 or so years.
I DJ'd a wedding reception last weekend and had a problem that I can't seem to quite figure out, so I'm looking for advice/help since I have a class reunion to do this upcoming weekend. I was about half way through the show when suddenly I realized that my right speaker would stop playing about half the time. After a couple times, I came to realize that the right speaker would only go out when I was playing off of the deck on the right in VDJ, so I would always have to fade that song to the deck on the left in order to use both speakers. Since I was in the middle of a gig, I couldn't really play with the settings and do a root cause, so I took the stuff home but I can't figure it out because I can't get it to happen again.
1. I'm not sure if this is because of the XLR cables. They're cheap and don't quite connect/snap in to the mixer very well, but wiggling them doesn't seem to affect the sound quality. I swapped the right speaker's cable out for a spare I have and it didn't fix the problem. Should I upgrade before Saturday just in case?
2. The right deck plays through the USB. Could my USB cable be bad?
3. Is VDJ the issue?
4. Could there be something wrong with my mixer?
5. If this were to occur again, should I risk daisy chaining the right speaker through the left and see if that works?
6. This was the first time I ever used lights at a gig and ironically the first time I've ever seen this problem happen. I can't imagine this is the issue since only one speaker didn't work on only one specific deck, but could it be that they didn't have enough power? I plugged the non-working (right) speaker into a different outlet and it didn't seem to help.
Please let me know if this has happened to you or if you have any thoughts.
Thank you!

Maine to DC: Update #6
Gary has been making great time, and got to the Bronx last night and is already through New York this morning and making his way through New Jersey. Gary has run 475 miles and has 230 miles left to go!
As always, you can track his progress at MyAthleteLive.com and make a donation on his website, Maine2DCRun.com. Gary has been posting frequent updates to Twitter and Facebook if you'd like to see some photos from along the way.
Gary was featured on News 12 in Connecticut yesterday with a good story about his run, which you can check out on their website by clicking here.
Maine to DC: Updates #4 and #5
Gary has been making great time this weekend, and as I write this on Monday morning he's over 335 miles into his trip, and is making his way through Connecticut! Pretty soon he'll be going through my old stomping grounds.
Fun stat #1: Gary covered 327 miles in his first week of running.
Fun stat #2: Gary is running through 9 states plus DC. Maine, the first state, comprised 29.7% of his total mileage.
You can follow his progress at MyAthleteLive.com and donate on his website at Maine2DCRun.com. If you live on his route, he always appreciates folks coming out to cheer for him.
Today we've got 2 updates for you, one from Saturday (day 6) and one from this morning.
First, here's Saturday's update: Read More…
Maine to DC: Update #3
Yesterday was day 4 of Gary Allen's run from Maine to DC. He totaled around "43″ miles, and I put that in quotes because he discovered that if he leaves the orange line his mileage stops counting until he rejoins it, and then it's just the original mileage no matter how much extra he has run. As you can hear from his update, which he left early yesterday morning (but requested be delayed in posting) he was running with Joan Benoit Samuelson and she took him on a few detours to show him some of the sites in Freeport.
He determined to stay on the line the rest of the day, but had to detour again after a few miles on the Eastern Trail proved too difficult for his ankle, but more on that later.
First, here's his morning update: Read More…
Maine to DC: Update #2
Gary got about 90 miles through yesterday, and today has already passed the 100 mile mark. It looks like he will be running through Portland tomorrow for anybody in the Brunswick to Biddeford area that wants to join him for a few miles or to bring him some food or coffee or just cheer him on.

Gary Allen Begins Running from Maine to DC
Gary Allen, founder of Crow Athletics and the race director for the Mount Desert Island Marathon and the Great Cranberry Island Ultramarathon, has begun his run today from the top of Cadillac Mountain to Washington, D.C. His goal is to raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project while getting to our nation's capital in time for the inauguration. Gary has 2 weeks to complete approximately 705 miles, and as of when this update goes up, he's already run almost 22 miles since beginning at 6 a.m. this morning.

Can Running Help You Stay Dry in the Rain?
As I write this, I'm watching the rain come down from my living room as the world supposedly comes to an end. Then I came across this video from minute physics, and it seemed to appropriate not to share. Will you get wetter if you run through the rain, or if you walk? What about if you are standing still?
Granted, standing still does not help you get from one place to another, but this video explains the differences between the three different states of enjoying the rain:

Mexico Trip-President Calderon Cracks Down on Human Trafficking
Mexico has dominated the news in recent years for drug trafficking, crime, human trafficking and illegal and deadly border crossings. But what I saw on my recent trip to Mexico City may surprise you.
Pamala Kennedy Chestnut 6/05/11
From recent trip to Mexico City
On May 25-26 at the request of President Felipe Calderon of Mexico I was honored to be a part of a Human Trafficking delegation in Mexico City. I learned that President Calderon had invited CEO's of companies, International rescue organization leaders, Major business owners and educators—I felt like I was there on assignment. I may elaborate on this more as there is certainly a story to tell so you will know why I was there—but that's for another blog post.
The amazing thing I realized once we were all together is—these individuals were all on assignment—to end human trafficking! President Calderon's purpose was to showcase what his country is doing to crack down on human trafficking and to keep the momentum moving in that direction by reaching out to various leaders of different organizations and agencies. He also told us about the changes he has made since taking office in Mexico and how his administration is cracking down on human trafficking and crime and wanting to make serious, long-term changes.
The President shared with our group that since taking office in Mexico:
- Crime, (21 homicides per 10,000; in USA he named 15 cities where that ratio is 40 per 10,000)
- Of the 38 most wanted cartel leaders 20 have been executed, and the other 18 are being targeted.
- He has built 100′s of new educational facilities.
- Added the LaRed values and principles mandatory for all federal police weekly.
- 100′s of New hospitals, search and rescue teams for human traffic victims.
- Raised the standards for the entire justice system employment.
His speech to us was informal and off the record…so I can't tell you most of what he said, but he asked for our suggestions in each of our areas of expertise, if we had anything to add.
Was able to speak to the President about the respect issue that I blogged about prior to my trip: new blog: "Domestic Violence/Human Trafficking-Change Only Comes by Respect"which is what I shared with President Calderon. He listened and agreed heartily! One of his cabinet members requested that More Than Rice be translated into Spanish for distribution in bookstores and high schools. We will keep you posted on this. Please pray about this request.
I also got to speak several times with Margarita, his wife. She is sweet and humble, and pictures do not do her justice, she is beautiful! She did take a photo with me, by her request, since there were supposed to be NO pictures of she nor the President that day. She told her staff she wanted one for me; you will see it attached. She signed my name tag, it reads: "Pamala, Thank you for your job and for your love to Mexico." Margarita Vazala…(I will also frame this)
However the most moving time for me was when I got to meet about 16 young girls who were rescued from human traffickers and were living in a halfway house that a congress woman has established. They stole my heart, especially one. She was about 11, and breathtakingly beautiful! She hugged me tightly with tears running down her little brown face and said, "I will miss you!" Of course I cried and cried for her later! These were not teenagers, but children ages 7-12! How can we sleep at night knowing about this horror? I want to do more, pray that I will know how to!
Mexican Children Perform Skit to Show the Tragedy of Human Trafficking:
Now for the not so spiritual stuff: The Presidential lunch itself! It was FABULOUS! I did save the small descriptive menu that was beside my plate to frame. I will give highlights. Everything was served on silver and fine china, flowers from all over Mexico decked out the white canopy covered tables, nestled in the gardens near Los Pinos residence.
More could be said, but enough for now. Thank you so much again…It was an experience I will treasure for all of my life.
Customs was a breeze, I always felt safe.
Together, we CAN make a difference, Pamala

I have read with great interest the lengthy dialogue on the greatest threat to reenacting. Yes, we *are* graying . . . I myself will be 59 next Saturday (but no gray yet).
But we don't need to be despairing and despondent over the incessant current of time. We only need to adapt gracefully to that which we cannot stop.
Perhaps it's time for reenacting to enter a new era -- the old soldiers' home.
We can select events at different places around the country (perhaps in towns and cities that might still have old 1890's residential areas), and convene for events. We'll sit around and reminisce about the War. For those who aren't yet comfortable with a mastery of reminiscent dialogue, they can either silently play checkers, rock on the front porch, or nap.
I suppose it does mean that the new reenacting age will at first consist mainly of EBUFUs. It will take time to swing the public away from the expectations of afternoon battles, to observing more sedentary activities on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
And events will of necessity be small, perhaps no more than 30 or 40 senior reenactors. I haven't thought the logistics of national events through yet.

In the USA, an average of 560 grams CO2 is emitted per generated Killo Watt hour.
Of course it's important to be energy efficient, but that's utterly secondary. Reusable energy sources, or nuclear power, have zero emission.
It's not enough to reduce CO2 emission by a few percent. The source of the issue has never been energy consumption, but releasing CO2 into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuel.
Posted 22 December 2009 - 01:51 PM
Oh yeah, most of these discussions are a little flaky, and I'm not entirely convinced it's as bad as they say. We went through this with Y2K and everything. It's always something imminently terrible is going to happen any second but these changes are very gradual and a little warming probably isn't that bad considering we're sitting between ice ages. We're going to run out of fossil fuels in a bit anyway and they will continue to become more expensive so alternatives will be found. Fusion will be best if they can work it out. Some countries are dumping nuclear waste in the ocean right now and it has a half life of what, 4 billion years or something? Man alive, that's way more dangerous. Chernobyl came just a little from wiping out a huge percent of the population. It's the snake you don't see that bites you.
I just didn't know that PHP was 10 times slower, but I think, like the discussions, there are a lot of factors involved. Like how much of it actually gets used. These languages are meant only as a glue for c code.

Before the distributive computing concept supported by the current computers, all processing was done in centralized data centers. Indeed, only monitors, not computers were needed. So, you think that the paradigm used 30 years ago was better?Dec 18, 2011 Comment Link

it is posible ?thank you!Dec 17, 2011 Comment Link
While it is an interesting concept, it is actually kind of being done with amazon web services, and windows azure.The problem I see with this is you still need some amount of processing to handle the data being sent back and forth between the "super computer" and your laptop. I think this idea would be best suited to be implemented when we have computers that roll up like paper :).Dec 17, 2011 Comment Link

Poll: Sick of Politics on Facebook
With less than 60 days until Election Day, Facebook is packed with political talk.
As the Presidential race swings into high gear, the political discourse on Facebook has reached epic proportions.
Hardly an hour goes by without some new posting proclaiming one party or candidate's virtues or the lack thereof.
The overly political tone of Facebook has forced some folks to take a break from the popular social media site. Others have defriended folks who post too often about their political beliefs.
We want to know how you're handling all the political banter. Vote in our poll below and share your thoughts in the comment section.

I don't mind the discussions, at all. It's the tremendous amount of ads for Obama that I don't like. This is supposed to be a social network not a political pact for Obama. It makes me sick that even facebook is carrying water for Obama, just like the main stream media.
Lindsay Street
7:56 am on Tuesday, September 11, 2012
Ken, anyone can buy advertising on media or on Facebook. During my local primary campaigns here in Summerville, several candidates purchased ads. It doesn't mean we're "carrying water" for any of them.
Chris Winston

If Facebook were half as good as targeting as it says it is, it wouldn't offer anyone in South Carolina ads for either side, would it? It's not like that will make a difference.
I think the questions at stake here are: Are you tired of seeing your Facebook friends fill your newstream with political blabber? Has anyone EVER changed their political ideology because of someone else's post?
Or, are all of your friends seeing the country the same way you are, so you're getting your political opinions backed by others? Is that rewarding?

@Chris Winston
'I think the questions at stake here are, etcETC...'
i dont do facebook but ask myself why i post, eg, to PATCH...no one cares what i think...certainly dont think any opinions are changed...i should get a life...OTOH...
discussions here have initiated 'googling for facts'...so maybe there is an educational value...OTOHoh
talking heads get paid for 'political blabber' which is no more earth shattering than most on PATCH.

I believe that to many people get their information from mainstream media and aren't getting all of the facts. And, in such a crucial election some of us are just trying to inform or educate our friends on things they may not have heard about. I notice that there is not just one, but three ads for Obama on this page. Think they're worried?
Chris Winston
10:54 am on Tuesday, September 11, 2012
That's probably where you and I would differ, Shawna. I believe TOO many people are getting their opinions supported (without facts) from TV and radio programs that claim to be news (there's at least one TV network on each side of the aisle, I would argue) and NOT ENOUGH are getting their news from mainstream media or anywhere else.
stanley seigler

I think we needed a fourth option in the poll: "No, I've got a big bucket of popcorn and am heartily enjoying watching my friends launch verbal tirades at one another." The "I love the discussion" option implies taking part in said discussions, sometimes it's just a lot more fun to watch other people go at it.

Opinions are one thing. There is no such thing as a wrong opinion. But getting facts wrong bugs me. We can all come to different conclusions on whether or not the blue sky is happy, sad, indifferent, summery, wintery or just a plain bad idea. But so long as you acknowledge the fact that the sky is blue, I'm a happy camper.
Speaking of googling and learning, why is the sky blue: http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/General/BlueSky/blue_sky.html
Jonathan Allen
1:40 pm on Tuesday, September 11, 2012
an interesting philosophical/metaphysical discussion is whether what I see as blue is the same as what you see as blue. I'm not talking about arguing if a particular shade of blue is closer to green or purple, rather it's the question of whether everyone experiences nature the same way. We know that the perception of color is dictated by the parts of the spectrum of visible light that are absorbed or reflected by an object, and no matter who sees the light bouncing off that object the same segments of the visible spectrum are either absorbed or reflected. A colorblind person sees the same light reflected off an apple as a person with normal sight, the color blind person's eyes just can't perceive the color the same way the rest of the population does. Logically we all evolved from a common ancestor so our sense organs and our brains which interpret the nerve signals from those organs all function the same way (with exceptions like the color blind person in the above example), but the question goes to the individual experience of the perception of the world around us. Since you can only perceive your own experience how can you know how everyone else perceives the same experiences. Since the visible light spectrum determines how we name colors we all agree that a specific wavelength of light is blue, but do you and I see the same color when we view that wavelength? And how do we know either way?
2:14 pm on Tuesday, September 11, 2012
Jonathan Allen: Please, don't confuse pwople with fact, their minds are already made on the political spectrum.

I think a person can change their political bent if they're open to new ideas, better or worse. And the political parties have obviously changed over time including flip/flopping in the 1950s and 60s. I feel like they're both sitting to the right now, with the Democrats occupying the political space the Republicans held in the 80s and 90s.

I thought Obama ads were bad on Facebook. Now, it's the Patch! Come on guys, I know you want to make money from advertising, but this looks like an Obama site with so many ads. Three (3) just on this page.
9:45 pm on Saturday, September 22, 2012
Romney's only advertising on the sites of exclusive country clubs.
Greg Hambrick
9:53 am on Sunday, September 23, 2012
Romney ads have been on Patch. But, much like TV ads, the Obama campaign is outspending Romney online. In the heat of the primary, you'd have found Santorum and Gingrich ads on here, not just Obama. We've also had several local Republican advertise directly on our sites.

I've just been trying out the dbpoweramp Music Converter and it can convert directly from FLAC to Apple Lossless (or to mp3, wave, etc) absolutely effortlessly! It will almost certainly do an interim conversion to wave during the process, but, as a user, you would be unaware of that.
If you want a single tool to convert your FLAC files this seems as good as any. Mind you, you will have to purchase the thing after 12 days if you like it!

I support the aggressive steps taken by the Federal Reserve to attack unemployment.
Traditionally, the Fed has been the nation's guardian against inflation. However, with the inflation rate below 2% and unemployment hovering at 8%, the Federal Reserve has structured a program designed to stimulate economic growth while allowing for only a slight rise in inflation.
Chairman Ben Bernanke and 11 out of 12 policymakers voted to implement QE3 - Quantitative Easing 3. This involves the purchase of $23 billion in mortgage bonds by the end of this month, escalating to $40 billion next month - the number changes in subsequent months as needed. Contrary to QE1 and QE2, which were limited in time and sum, Bernanke is adamant that QE3 will continue until the unemployment crisis is clearly over.
Purchasing mortgage bonds is designed to lower mortgage rates, drive an increase in housing starts, and create high-paying jobs in industries such as construction. This would have a ripple effect on the rest of the economy.
Fed officials believe that unemployment will decrease much more rapidly in the coming year because of their decisive action. Economists outside the government do not expect sudden, dramatic growth, but they do support the proposition that QE3 will have a positive impact over time.
Wall Street applauded the Fed's action as evidenced by the 1.6% jump in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (206.51 points). Democrats also applauded the move. No surprise - Republicans, including presidential candidate Mitt Romney, did not support the Fed's action despite their pro big-business agenda.
While QE3 is a positive step, it is not enough by itself. It is time for Congress to do its part and pass President Obama's jobs plan.
The president's plan will create good-paying jobs in infrastructure, research, and education. When an organization as conservative as the Federal Reserve sees the need for stimulus, the House and Senate Republicans must break with their obstructionist policies. Congress must put the American people first – they must stop playing "Let's see what happens at the election," Russian roulette style.
In particular, Congressman Rodney Frelinghuysen (R-11) has to place the needs of our district and state above those of his party.
New Jersey has one of the highest unemployment rates in this nation (9.8% as of July 2012), ranking very close to the top of 51 states surveyed (including the District of Columbia).
That is not acceptable. I urge Mr. Frelinghuysen to put partisan politics aside and to vote to do what's right for the citizens of our state and our country.
1:03 am on Tuesday, September 18, 2012
This Arvanites guy is totally out to lunch. QE3? Really? You just wrote an article saying how good quantitative easing is? Arvanities - Do you understand what devaluing the dollar means? How has the other rounds of quantitative easing worked out for the American people?

" I support the aggressive steps taken by the Federal Reserve to attack unemployment.
Traditionally, the Fed has been the nation's guardian against inflation. " those first two sentences make no sense, how can you possibly say the fed traditionally is a guardian against inflation? When the gold standard was nixed and the fed started printing money with nothing to back it, thats when inflation soared and has ever since.. Gold was $50 and oz. look, at the price today...thats litterally the definition of inflation haha the federal reserve is the direct cause of inflation not a gaurdian against it, common sense....when you print money out of thin air you increase inflation no ifs, ands, or buts. The federal Reserve is a private bank with the power to control americas money supply! Central banks are a very dangerous thing! Thomas jefferson is quoted saying "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

If the blue dog Democrats in your party didn't run this state for most of the last 60 years, then perhaps the right steps would have been taken along the way thereby reducing the unemplyment rate of our district and state. Unfortunately, dogs and dead peoople figured out how to vote, and they always vote Democrat in NJ, especially in Hudson County!!! (I can say that because I grew up there.)
QE3 and more jobs in research, infrastructure, and education are not essential right now. Didn't Obama already promise that these types of shovel-ready jobs would boost the economy? Oh, I guess you forgot about Obama's "recovery summer back in 2009 and 2010".
We need free-market, private sector jobs to be created, and that only happens when big government Democrats go away taking with them all of their regulations that restrict businesses from thriving. The pro big-business agenda should be the only agenda given consideration. "We the people" not "we the government" built this country into the most prosperous one on the face of the Earth through freedom and individual liberties. You know....., the reasons why your Greek and my Italian familes came to this great nation in the first place!!

These Democrats must live in an alternate universe. They keep pushing the same old tired, failed policies and keep wishing and hoping (definitely not praying! ;) ) for a different outcome. Hey, isn't that the definition of insanity?
they bore me with their drivel. They want to take money out of our pockets, to put into their pockets, to redistribute where they see fit towards initiatives that DON'T WORK!!! But, don't let us bore you with those pesky things called facts. Leave my money alone and let me handle my life. John needs to go live in a nice socialist country and cozy up with his anti-freedom, anti-liberty, anti-free markets soulmates.
Dems are so anti everything this country stands for it's absolutely sickening - especially when they have prospered from it.

John: If you want more employment how about reducing the size and scope of government so the free enterprize system can generate economic growth and jobs. At this point governmen is in the way of the job makers. We have has about three or four years of goverment masivley "priming the pump" by spending money it does not have and nothing to show for it but more debt.

Robert, you got me completly wrong, its the endless spending promoted by both parties of this country that has lead us too here. i agree with you on many points. In my opinion though the federal reserve is one of the most dangerous and destructive forces we have in our country today.

The Federal Reserve has added more than $2 trillion to the base money supply since 2008 – an unprecedented number that is intended to cover their deep losses and spur lending & investment. Instead, as banks continue their enormous deleveraging, almost all of their new money remains at the Fed in the form of excess reserves. Corporations are holding the largest amounts of cash, relative to assets and net worth, ever recorded. And yet, despite what pundits claim about strong balance sheets, firms' debt levels, relative to assets and net worth, also remain near record-high levels. The velocity of money (the frequency at which money is spent, or GDP relative to base money) continues to plunge to historic lows this offsets any impact of monetary policy. Federal Reserve manipulation of interest rates, however, does not influence time preference, even though it signals such a change. The resulting inconsistency creates distortions: as with any price control, capital receives an incentive to flow to investment that is inconsistent with actual supply and demand. The Fed, in the long run, simply cannot direct entrepreneurs to lend, borrow, and invest; investment capital will inevitably shrug when faced with oppressive manipulation of free markets. When that happens, we see the true result of loose monetary policy: not the creation of more economic activity, but the destruction of the natural mechanism of economic coordination and adjustment, robbing the system of its resilience

"Awesome!" 05/07/13
I love this product from Icebreaker. I have several of their other products, all really good, but this is my favorite. I have it in 2 colors, a light grey and a dark grey. I have had one for several months and liked it so much I purchased another. They are comfortable in a wide range of temperatures. I wear them at leisure and for exercise. Unlike synthetics they don't hold odors, so they can go a while without washing. ( I have 2 so I always have one clean) I like them better than my cotton T's because when wet and sweaty they still function to keep me warm.
"Very warm and Comfortable." 03/12/12
This was the first Icebreaker product I bought, but I love Merino wool and the hefty discount made me decide to give it a try. I am about 5'8" 150 lbs and I got a medium. It fits like a glove, very warm and versatile. The loop holes in the sleeves are great and seem very durable. All in all it is a great shirt, very comfortable.

"Evertyhing you want but...." 02/25/11
I love icebreaker. I own several garments that are awesome. This has everything you love about icebreaker. Comfortable, warm, can wear it forever before my wife tells me I'm disgusting but it's too short in the body. I think I'm proportioned normally. Wearing a pack it consistently rides up. Running a chainsaw it leaves my lower back exposed. That sucks. Try a different style if you'll if you'll be wearing a pack or bending over.
"Best top I have ever worn!" 01/11/11
I'm actually wearing it right now as I write this review. This thing is the best. The zip-up turtle neck does wonders for when the wind is blowing or you need that little bit of extra warmth. The thumbholes are AWESOME for layering other things. This thing NEVER smells and is the warmest piece of clothing I own. Also, climbing in this is a breeze - I can work on a hard V4-V5 and still be completely dry due to the wicking effect this has.
"Potent base layer, but annoying care requirements" 12/21/10
The good: Soft and comfy, looks good, and very flexible. It won't keep you very warm when worn alone, but for the thickness it has, it's pretty impressive when you pair it with a soft shell or something else on top.The bad: You can't put it in the dryer or it shrinks. Some people might not mind this, but I really hate not being able to use a clothes dryer. It's dusty as hell where I am at so if I hang it out to dry, it just gets dirty again which defeats the purpose of washing it. But if your circumstances permit and you aren't bothered by this, then I recommend this shirt.
"Freakin' Sweet !" 12/17/10
Like everything I have purchased from Icebreaker, the 260 Zip is an impressive garment. I use these shirts mainly for aerobic activities such as cycle spinning, step class, and most of all - cycling/touring. The wool doesn't develop stench nor itch. The quality is unsurpassed. I even wear these shirts casually. Being in Grand Forks (and Spoons), North Dakota, these shirts help keep the soul nice warm, especially when the temperatures hit -65 F.My only complaint is the actual size of the garment. I am 5' 9" (~ 180 lbs) and I choose to wear the 2XXL because of the torso length. The sleeves tend to be quite long as a result. I wish there was a XL-long option. I like me shirts long & baggy.
"Good fitting and comfortable" 11/25/10
You don't have to worry about this shirt not fitting you without having tried it on. I normally wear a Large, and the Large fits me perfectly. I have just gotten it and haven't had time to get it drenched in sweat, but thus far it is very comfortable, no tag on the neck to scratch you, nice and soft. I would like to emphasize that this is a "base layer" and will not keep you very warm on a cold day by itself. The wind cuts right through it, so it is good for when you are being physically active in the cold, but not for just hanging out unless you are in the sun and its only just "cool" outside.
"great midweight base layer" 11/11/10
This item is incredibly efficient. It does exactly what it is supposed to do, pull moisture off your body, dry quickly, keep you warm, and repel odors. Keep in mind it will not dry as fast as a comparable synthetic base layer; but it won't become permafunked either. It mildly itches before the first watch but that goes away. Fit is true to size and thumb holes are useful.
