To be considered for admission within our competitive selection process, applicants must submit the following documented evidence:
The Midwestern University Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology Program educates students in the general practice of evidence-based clinical psychology serving a diverse population.
The Program's training model recognizes the ongoing need in society for competently trained practitioners with strong foundational knowledge of psychological theories, the scientific bases of behavior, and evidence-based clinical practice, as well as the ability to utilize this knowledge in specific clinical situations. The Program is committed to achieving three major educational goals congruent with its training model:
Consistent with the Program's mission, educational and training philosophy, and goals, the faculty emphasizes in its didactic and clinical curricula that science informs practice as practice informs science. The Program demonstrates their interdependency by integrating theory with research as both apply to clinical situations and experiences to help students understand bidirectional influences of science and practice.
The Doctor of Psychology degree is designed to be a professional degree similar to the doctoral degrees provided in medicine, law, pharmacy, physical therapy, and dentistry. The Psy.D. is considered the degree of choice for persons interested in becoming a practitioner scholar when pursuing a career in clinical psychology. The program emphasis is on the development of the essential diagnostic, therapeutic, and consultative skills for the practice of clinical psychology.
The program of study follows the objectives of the training models endorsed by the American Psychological Association (APA) and the National Council of Schools and Programs of Professional Psychology (NCSPP). Students are educated and trained in the core competency areas related to the current body of knowledge on the biological aspects of behavior, cognitive and affective aspects of behavior, social aspects of behavior, history and systems of psychology, psychological measurement, research methodology, techniques of data analysis, individual differences, human development, dysfunctional behavior and psychopathology, professional standards and ethics, theories and methods of assessment and diagnosis, effective interventions, consultation, supervision, efficacy of interventions, issues of cultural and individual diversity, and attitudes essential for lifelong learning, scholarly inquiry, and professional problem-solving. The program centers on the development of appropriate attitudes, knowledge, and skills reflected in the training competencies of relationship, assessment, intervention, research/evaluation, consultation/education, management/supervision, diversity, and professionalism.
The overall goal is to prepare students for careers in the practice of professional psychology. There are eight specific goals defined as competencies, and the program has key points in the curriculum target to assess progress in attaining competencies. These competencies are:
The Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology Program follows the practitioner scholar model of preparation that was accepted by the American Psychological Association at the Vail Conference. This model recognizes the ongoing need in society for expertly trained practitioners in the field of clinical psychology. The practitioner scholar philosophy dictates that competent practitioners are required to have an extensive understanding of the theoretical principles in the clinical practice of psychology and the ability to utilize the knowledge in specific clinical situations. This program philosophy is to educate and train individuals to enter careers emphasizing the delivery of direct psychological services and consultation. Relevant theory, research, and field experiences are integrated toward the development of competent and ethical practitioners who are respectful of individual and cultural differences in the provision of psychological services.
Information pertaining to the administrative policies and procedures of both the department and the university can be found in the current Midwestern University catalog.
Tuition = $25,740 yearly (At the current rate, total program tuition is projected to be $102,960 on the four year plan and $128,700 on the five year plan). There is an additional fee of $255 the first year for testing material fees. A quarterly continuation fee (ranging from $500 to $1,000) is assessed for completion of the Practitioner Scholar Project beyond the internship year. Students taking less than 12 credit hours per quarter are considered to have a partial course load.
Tuition rates are subject to change each academic year. Historically, tuition has increased between 2% and 7% annually.

the book was different - xxlynchyxx
this is a cheesy girls chick flick with a great story line but it is so different from the book. first of all its based in new york in the book its based in dublin. so there are alot of differences between the film and the book. so if you are going to watch this and expect to see the book on screen you will be disappointed. as far as it goes as a movie the film was a pleasant film. it wasnt amazing but it was enjoyable. very light hearted.

ADTECH IQ users don't need new technical solutions to book video campaigns, but work in the environment they are already familiar with. Your benefit: no extensive migration and no need for additional training. Instead you profit from additional revenues by simply extending your product portfolio.
Support of all common video players
ADTECH Video supports all IAB VAST compatible video players. You are free to choose your player and don't need to switch technologies. It is up to the video player to determine video format, video length, bit rate and resolution of the ad, while the ad server will deliver the adequate video as per request.
Efficient video asset management
All ads which belong to a video campaign are managed together. For a video spot with companion ads, for instance, both spot and related banners are set up, grouped and subsequently treated and booked as one ad. The same spot can be uploaded in different video formats and is automatically served by the ad server with the correct attributes.
Detailed reporting
The integration of ADTECH Video into IQ allows for both video-specific and combined reporting with Display campaigns. Reports can be broken down all the way to the placement level. Detailed event tracking (e.g. start, stop, mute, full screen) as well as the playback durations in quartiles are available in reports.
Ad break – Multiple ads via one ad request
The new Ad break function simplifies the delivery of multiple video ads in commercial breaks. Only one ad request is needed for our ad server to deliver a whole sequence of ads in a given length. Additionally, you can exclude competitive campaigns and avoid the repetition of ads in the same ad break.
- Ad break function to deliver multiple ads in one commercial break
- Exclusion of competing campaigns
- Exclusion of multiple delivery of the same ad
- Built in support of IAB's VAST 1 and 2 and VAST Wrapper for Third party redirects
- Support of linear and non linear video advertising
- Formats: pre-roll, mid-roll, post-roll, overlays, combined formats in which video and display ads are synchronized on the website

Nice studies.
As everyone else, I like your angel, though her thigh is a bit strangely shaped, but that pic has sooo nice details... And I had a fun time to look at your other stuff and reading your comments is a must too... I'm at the end of a somewhat long inactive period and I'm rusty even at SB comments and I always feel words fail me here anyway. Your works touch me way more I can express.
I have to agree with Mrs Blackspot and say that the anatomy studies were a refreshing sight I knew you did some but I like to see them. As for you liking a bit of petting well who the hell doesnt!? thats what I say....
best wishes and "FEED ME MORE!" posts.
sorry have been watching WWE with my youngest boy, thats the american wrestling nonsense, but there is a guy on there called "Ryeback" or some such and you have to see him he is bleeding enormous! anyhow thats what he chants after he turns an opponent into sticky goo in the ring LOL.

you've been so hardworking lately, it's admirable. those bone and pelvis studies are looking amazingly amazing. and i have to add that i like the faces of those two ladies on the bottom of the page
just keep doing what you're doing.
I am relatively new to the forums although I have been lurking through CA before and your sketchbook was one of the things which popped up. I really liked going through your sketchbook you show awesome commitment to your sketching and I really love that Gorey twisted and humorous creativity you've got thar . To me you are an inspiration, I am really hoping to be able to commit and to be able to improve as fast as you did >_<. Keep posting and I love that you are going back to showing more of your rough working I really like going through that more than polished work.
Excellent bone and muscle studies up there! I have to physically sedate myself to do legitimate anatomy, I really need to do more, thanks for the reminder Figures in perspective as well, nice~ Just checkin` the new stuff
A suggestion for horses? Their torso can be broken into 3 overlapping spheres, and a 4th smaller one for the base of their head. Its much easier to think of them in other poses aside from profile this way, since you will simply overlap the spheres more the more foreshortening that occurs. Love the pelvic studies by the way. Cheers
I like what you draw, what ever the shape or the style you use.
This is you , your emotion, feeling , happiness, sadness time, anxiety ect. So that's good.

Nice breakfast! Would have been an awesome still life but I guess at the same time too tempting to eat . I am just wondering, is that all you drew in the past ten days? I have serious respect for the studies you currently doing but couldn't you push out a bit more man .
kevin; thank you very much, I am glad you like some of the drawings
SinEater; I would like to be back on track, but I am pretty much down again,
I hope someday I will meet Milla. Oh, shes so gorgeous and her legs and between,
no words can describe those feelings. Thank you for your kind and motivational words.
Jr.Molcak; thank you very much for the cheer up and for the visit my cool friend
shiNIN; where did you disappeared again, miss you so much
Graham; Mrs. Spot was naughty naughty again, and I am sending
Mr. Gibson to her house pretty soon. I just googled up Mr. Ryeback
and he is scary indeed. Where did he get so much blood to bleed off?
bbwolf; thanks for the kind wishes, I am trying to find my surfboard once again,
but its so hard.
Svenja; thank you for the sweet chocolate words and encouragement my dear,
means much to me
Danny; its a great success for me when someone states that I am an inspiration for him,
I didnt see myself in that stage, but I am glad that I can be an inspiration, I hope that
I will not lead you into anything negative. Behind all these gore and tasteless things
there is a sensible soul. I guess there is. Thank you for you words and for your
appearance, I just cannot describe the happiness that I feel.
Wretched; Thank you for the kind words and for the encouragement, you know
anatomy studies are always welcomed in our arsenal.
Ghast; I was always struggling with animal anatomy, I got used more to the
human one. You got some great points there, thank you for helping me out
and for dedicating your time to visit and to view my things.
Rafid; there are often time emotions, cause I cannot hide them,
I should however from time to time. Its not good to be honest all the
time, I just realized, sometimes is better to hold some feelings hidden.
Or maybe I am wrong, not sure anymore. Thank you for the all time everlasting
support and thank you for everything.
Liberty; pats received , it felt good, thank you very much
Danny; a breakfast screenshot from a movie which I like, its kind of funny,
just looking at that breakfast makes me jiggle. But you also have to take in
consideration that I am a bit deranged.
My left eye was sensible to bright light over the last two years, and I was a bit upset
about it but I managed somehow to ignore it. 10 days ago over a weekend a yellow spot
appeared in the centre of the visual field of my left eye. Something that bothers
you to focus on the regular everyday images. Then I said, I must have overdone
with the computer screen and it will go away if I will be patient. But it didnt.
I went today to the hospital and I was diagnosed with a macular degeneration
on my left eye. Super extra mega cool. This spot will stick in front of my left eye till
I go blind or something. And there are no reversal process or cure as I understood the
guy. I cannot read clearly, I cannot focus normally, I have to hold my hand on
my left eye so I could use my right without any distraction. The irony is that
I am looking more and more like my avatar. I will use an eyepatch in the future, and I will
live like a rebel. I just need to grow a bit bigger beard. So, there goes the concept art
dream, there goes the big art future. Or do you know someone pretty good with one
eye in the industry?
You should stay and witness the declination of my current poor modest art achieved
qualities, cause I dont intend to stop posting for now.
This mission can fail, but the mission to
become a better man would still be ahead of me, it could still be available if I
do things right. So think positive and everything will be fine I think.
Lets drink a beer for another big turning point in my life.

man this sucks. I am sorry to hear about your eye. I hope you are doing fine. One of my classmates is actually going through the same disease. He has it on both of his eyes. But he has not lost hope and still trying his best. I sincerely hope there is some kind of cure that comes out soon. This is really sad. Take it easy for some time man and try using anti glare glasses when you use your pc. Good luck man.

I first wanted to say that I am sorry to hear about your eye but at the same I have to say NEVER and I mean NEVER say that about your dreams, you can still do this! I may not know anybody in Concept Artist industry with such impairment but I know that Beethoven for example was deaf and yet still became the best at his time for playing the piano, Dante during the Renaissance wrote a lot of his best work still remembered to this day although being blind. Whenever there is a will there is a way! I was also looking through future treatments for Macular Degeneration and found a lot of promising treatments from bionic eyes to stem cell research. What ever happens you still are in control of your life and not some obstacle life has put in your way. I know it may be hard but you will pull through, I am counting on it!

A brief history of the clenched fist image;
-A persistent symbol of resistance and unity,
-Clenched fist is used as a gesture of defiance or solidarity. Facing the signer, it threatens physical violence.
-It is also used as a salute to express strength, defiance, or resistance.
The salute dates back to ancient Assyria as a symbol of resistance in the face of violence.
-The human hand has been used in art from the very beginnings,
starting with stunning examples in Neolithic cave paintings.

I am truly sorry to hear about your eye, man. But keep pushing yourself and everything will be possible. Your studies are top-notch, keep doing them. They seem like a waste of time, but they pay off and they are fun to do after a while, but who am I telling this, you know that all ready.
A man dies and goes to heaven and Saint Peter is waiting for him at the pearly gate with the keys to a brand new Mercedes. He looks at St.Peter questioningly and St. Peter explains to the man that you get the car according to the kind of life you lived on earth. So he handed him the keys and the man drives off with his Mercedes. Two days later St. Peter see the same man crying on the side of the road. St. Peter walks over to see what is the matter with this man.
St. Peter,"Sir didn't you enjoy your car here, you deserved, you were a model and caring husband and father, whats wrong?"
The man, "O, I enjoyed my car, but then I say my wife the other day."
St. Peter, " This is wonderful you two can be together now for all eternity, tell me why are you crying."
The man, "She was riding a bicycle."
Ok, bad joke. Take it easy man.
Ah, I just remembered an artist that I had read about that had lost some sight in one of his eyes. Donato Giancola the painter, he's amazing check him out. You probably have heard of him all ready though.
Really sorry to hear about the eye man, just keep on keeping on. Studies are looking good, just keep on working .

Omg Im so sorry to hear about your eye! Thats like my worst nightmare! I wish you all the luck with adjusting to that. Ive not heard of an artist who has that but I dont see it as a reason to not continue your chosen path. Hell, no other artist dealing with it, makes it even more reason for you to. You will be written down as that person who conquered on despite of it and down the line someone else will be looking at you for guidance through it.

Inspection catches 92 King County tobacco retailers selling to kids
December 22, 2012 · 11:44 AM
Tobacco retailers throughout King County were caught selling tobacco to underage teens 92 times from Jan. 1 through Dec. 5 this year, for an illegal sales rate of over 8 percent. This reflects a drop from the 12 percent rate in 2011, but elevated from the 6 percent average from 2006-2010. Statewide, tobacco sales to minors are at a ten-year high at 16 percent. No retailers in Bothell or Kenmore were on the list.
A listing by city of all 92 retailers who sold tobacco to minors is posted online.
"Underage access to tobacco fuels addiction and early death for King County's children," said Dr. David Fleming, Director and Health Officer for Public Health – Seattle and King County. Almost 90 percent of adult smokers started in their teens, and one out of every three youth smokers will die early from smoking-caused disease.
In Washington state, selling tobacco to a minor is prohibited by law, with a $100 fine and tobacco education for the retailer and a $50 fine for the clerk making the sale. Repeat offenders within two years are fined up to $1500 and may have their tobacco sales license revoked.
"The tobacco industry continues to aggressively pursue new smokers, including marketing products that appeal to kids. We need to continue working to counter tobacco addiction in our community," said Scott Neal, Tobacco Prevention Program Manager for Public Health – Seattle and King County.
In 2010 alone, the tobacco industry spent $80 million dollars in Washington state on marketing activities. In response to tougher federal regulations for marketing and advertising of cigarettes, the tobacco industry has created new products that appeal to youth, such as dissolvable tobacco that resembles gum, candy and breath-strips, mini-cigars and snus (teabag-like pouches of tobacco) in flavors such as chocolate, strawberry and grape.
Countywide, more than 15,000 students -- including one in four 12th graders -- use cigarettes or other tobacco products. Tobacco use remains among the leading causes of death in King County, leading to nearly 2,000 deaths per year and $343 million in medical care costs, lost productivity and other expenses.
Retailer compliance checks are conducted throughout the year by Public Health and the Washington State Liquor Control Board, as well as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) due to federal laws around tobacco and cigarettes. Working with local law enforcement, teens try to buy cigarettes and other tobacco products at King County retailers, some chosen randomly and others based on past violation history.
Anyone who witnesses a merchant or other adults providing tobacco to a minor is encouraged to call Public Health's Tobacco Prevention Program at 206-296-7613 to file a confidential complaint.

Another two men due before courts in connection with helping prisoner escape
11:50am Wednesday 13th March 2013 in News
ANOTHER two men are due to appear in court today charged in connection with the escape of prisoner John Anslow.
Anslow escaped from a prison escort van near HMP Hewell, between Redditch and Bromsgorve, in January last year. He remains at large.
Last night, detectives investigating the incident charged a 25-year-old man and a 29-year-old man with being involved in the conspiracy to assist in the escape of Anslow.
The pair were remanded in to custody and are due to appear before Birmingham Magistrates Court later.
A total of nine men, including the two mentioned above, have so far been charged in connection with the escape of Anslow.

If it doesn't come out by September then i doubt it will be coming out this year
why didn't they just make it for the next gen.. my ps3 doesn't work and its so much effort buying a new one just for this (i will though )
Because they want to sell lots. Not many people will have the next-gen consoles compared to those who already own ps3's / xbox 360's.
I dont see why they wouldnt make a next gen port for it though later down the line (if it gets released before they come out)
I will be playing GTA V on Xbox 360 in 2015/2016
i can confirm this 100%

Micrel, Marvel ally on Ethernet PHYs for in-vehicle nets
Brian Fuller
SAN FRANCISCO -- Micrel and Marvell on Monday (Sept. 24) said they have developed an interoperable IEEE 802.3 standard-compliant Ethernet PHY for in-vehicle networking targeting applications like vehicle diagnostics, infotainment and connected-car platforms.
The technology collaboration, demonstrated in early September at a Japanese symposium, will be sold through the partners' Ethernet products. The will support speeds of up to 100 Mbps.

"Utilizing standard IEEE technology will allow the automotive industry to take full advantage of the vast existing foundation of Ethernet networking applications," said Wiren Perera, a Micrel spokesman. Perera added that the solution also "provides immediate access to multiple other standards such as energy efficient Ethernet for reduced power consumption and power-over-Ethernet for transmission of power without requiring extra wires."
To date, solutions targeting automotive networking applications have been deemed to be too expensive.

This is probably the most silly way to copy files from an old XP harddrive to a Vista and possible Windows 7 as well.
The problem I was facing was that I had to help someone copy files from an old dead XP computer to his new Vista computer. He bought a external USB casing for the XP harddrive and attached it to the Vista computer.
So a simple copy from XP harddrive to the Vista computer seemed the obvious way forward. But no – apparently he didn't have the rights to copy his own files. XP and Vista have some sort of protection schemes that made that harder than it should be. I'm a Linux/BSD user and not really into the inner workings of Windows, so I had to do at bit of googling and found it was a common issue. I tried many of the tips and tricks and applications, but at best they would only copy some of his files.
Being the Linux/BSD-guy that I am a started thinking, "how can I use Linux to do what Windows apparently can't do?"
Here is what I did. I installed VirtualBox on his Vista computer. With VirtualBox I set up a virtual machine with Linux (Kubuntu in this case) and allowed it to access the old XP harddrive via USB and enabled a shared folder. Once Linux booted I mounted the XP harddrive and the shared folder. And from there it was just a simple copy from the XP harddrive to the shared folder (ie. his new Vista computer). And it worked!
I did have some issues. VirtualBox on Windows doesn't always capture the USB-device. So plug it in and out a couple of times in different USB-port until you succeed.

For the first time since The Corporate Machine, I have a version of one of our games 100% in my hands.
So v1.4 is all mine. Everyone else is now fully on Fallen Enchantress.
I'm not on FE yet because some of the mechanics are still being implemented so I can't work on its AI yet.
It's just you guys and me. So it's like being a modder again except I get to play with the source code.
In this thread, I'll be hanging out talking about the "stuff" I'm doing.
Well, I downloaded it, but now the game won't run. It gets to that first big dragon screen and then just sits there, forcing me to ctrl-alt-delete my way out of the non-responding program.
Sounds like it's compiling the XML. So hang tight on that dragon screen.
I'm getting a issue where the AI is not building huts. Ill keep playing and see if they still do it, and if it effects Empire.
Edit: They seem to want to only build houses in their capital. Their other cities aren't being developed properly.
Edit2: After quite a long time they are know building huts outside the capital, but it took like 50 turns.
Perhaps, AI Magic Research priorities needs to be refined to include: Spell Immunity (protects 1 unit vs magic), Spell Blast (30% damage, area effect spell), Spell Entrophy (30 points damage), Wind Shield (for use when facing human archers). AI sovereigns should put skill points into Intelligence if they will be casting magic in battle as damage from arcance arrow and spell blast are based on intelligence and minimal intelligence = minimal damage. Ai sovereign should protect self with Spell Immunity (Wind Shield) if enemy is casting magic (using archers).
Posted this in the changelog - should have posted it here I guess:
Started a few games but haven't got very far into any of them yet. There are a few things I've come across so far:
Turn triggered automatically even if some units can move. This is the annoying one so far. If you have a number of different units positioned around the map turns seem to be triggered as soon as any unit finishes its move. If other units have stored movement objectives it will play these out - but if a unit finishes its turn somewhere you need to specifically find it to give it new orders.
Bug with movement points when combining units. I've had units combine and the unit that walked into the stack still had full movement points. I didn't check if this was because a new turn was triggered of if the points were reset.
One-turn construction really doesn't feel right. This insta-build doesn't work for me. Would much prefer 3 turns at least for these.
Units don't path through cities. The quickest route is through entering a city at one end and leaving at the other. The pathing doesn't make use of this. I'd be happy if a unit entering a city lost its turn but I don't think this is the case (hard to tell because of the automatic turn problem mentioned above).
Borders don't update until a turn later. I had a series of resources become build-able even though the borders of my city showed otherwise. Next turn the city grew and the resources were within the borders. Think this is tied into the turn-ending bug.
I'll try to keep playing but I'm really not enjoying the movement micromanagement this version requires.
Got a DX Invalid Call after alt-tabbing out.
Technology does't update the turn it's researched, it applies the turn after. Because of this, I could research all 5 tech areas, but then apply the done research to a different category by switching the focus before hitting the end turn button, effectively being able to gain 5 research levels in one area for the research price of researching 5 level one areas.
I like the one turn construction because it doesn't allow the citizens to build a tax base, so you'll start losing gildar if you build too fast. It does lead to city spam though after that initial holding back.
Trying to build pioneers is weird... you can't select "one unit" unless you de-select the town and then select it again (provided pioneers were last selected). Accidentally built a 4-unit pioneer this way and wasted plenty of resources.
A couple of turns my empire borders disappeared, then reappeared the next turn. Also the aforementioned border issues that wait until the next turn to update.
Was having lots of fun until the crash!
I'm getting an issue with automoving units. For example, I set a unit to move across my kingdom which will take 10 turns. It only actually moves every 2nd turn, so the trip takes 20 turns instead.
Played a little deeper into the game now. I'm wondering if threading is the cause of the turns working out of sync. Seems that most of the issues are due to the turn processing while the turn is still being played out. Caravan limits are also flagged on the turn the last one is built even though there are no others in the queue.
Some other issues:
New designed units are starting with 3HP while Peasants start with 5HP. XML issue perhaps?
Faced a rogue wizard who didn't use magic.
Tactical battles feel like they are heading in the right direction.
Overall this is much more enjoyable than previous versions - but still not really close to being a 1.4 release candidate yet.
I tried again today, and this time it loaded most faster. Hm.
Anyways, here are my observations after a first playthrough:
1) So far seems stable, I haven't run into any crashes or bugs. Whew!
2) The low cost for initial improvements is nice and helps speed things along. It is a bit jarring though when you go from a hut at 1 turn to an inn at like 10. Might need to balance those times out a bit.
3) It takes a turn foe certain things to 'fire'. For example, a town will level up and you will get the icon on the right, but it will take a turn to get the city level-up window. Same for tech. It seems to take an extra turn to get the new tech selection screen. When you fill up the meter nothing happens until the next turn. Is this new?
4) The additional HP helps and makes battles a bit more interesting, especially early on. Now you can actually slug it out a bit.
5) I've also noticed the auto-move weirdness.
-AI still does the 'follow a single enemy around the battlefield' thing, ignoring closer enemies. This wouldn't be so bad if it had enough action points left to chase and attack, but it just chases and thus can be kited and slaughtered easily. I suggest switching to some kind of 'attack closer enemy' tactic.
- The 'ghost' counterattack is still there, and I'm fine with it, but we need a way to show it. It is confusing to just have the HP of my unit seem to vanish and a player that doesn't understand what is happening will be really thrown off when their unit seems to have suffered damage out of the blue.
Random Spawns:
-Can we seperate out different types of random enemies? I hate when the human bandits and spiders and stuff all end up in one stack with a pet bear. Just seems weird.
Champion AI:
- AI champions aren't using skill books. In current game, I see an enemy sovereign, Level 1, with 2 of those insta-level XP books and one stat booster. This makes me think that she was questing and getting loot, but isn't using the books. She would jump to at least level 3 just by using those books.
I'm enjoying the game, especially since it seems nice and stable. I think we are on the right track here, we just need further polish and balance. Thanks for the hard work!
The Good:
A lot of small things are coming together. These little things used to drive me nuts and really detract from the game, but now they are fixed.
The economy and the balance between improvements and natural resources is one thing. You don't need natural resources but they are helpful. Food is the exception unfortunately.
The increased importance of materials is another thing. 4 strong groups forces you to build more then 2 or 3 workshops.
The limit on unlimited improvements actually works quite well. Although I wouldn't mind trying out a version where the limit is on the improvements in total not on specific ones.
The reduced build time on improvements is interesting and does make the game faster. However maybe a small increase to 2 or 3 turns. Right now it is a little to instantaneous. It feels kinda weird.
For the first real time WoM has a functioning and deep Economy, and it makes a huge difference.
The Bad:
Lots of little pathing issues. Sometimes units don't continue paths from other turns, and they don't enter cities etc...
Monsters are too weak. My Sov got a cloak from a box and I bought him a padded chest piece. He then proceeded to wreck hordes of monsters by himself without taking damage. I got level four cities way before the monsters got tough. I invested quite a lot in adventure tech but by the time second level monsters started spawning I had light plate! Plains Wargs do like 7 dmg? That would barely hurt someone in padded armor! Monsters need to level faster and they need to be a little bit tougher. A lot of them just don't have the attack power to hurt units in even basic armor.
Boy was I surprised when I completed the Knight quest by going back to my capital, is that ever explained?
I got a message saying I had inherited an Empire but it was actually another AI player who had.
AI seems to develop none capital cities extremely slowly.
I think I've seen the auto moving weirdness too. Will look into.
Some more bugs:
AI massing monuments(ie dozens), even though city level pretty fast naturally.
AI is building all his houses in his capital and very rarely building any in his other cities.
You can still build unlimited Libraries, loreshops, master archivists, embassies, and monuments.
AI building granaries in places with no food.
AI building a lot of small towns beside say a single mine. No the smartest way to play because of food limits.
Unit stats are displaying as group totals which is confusing.
Once you get some civ tech and a city to level 4 it starts producing humungous amounts of resources, more then you can possibly spend. Nothing late game really consumes large amounts of resources.
Ventri Mines are too plentiful and give to much metal.
I will reiterate the monster thing again. Even Trolls and Shrill lords cannot hurt even light plate. A monster boost is needed.
Boosting monsters etc is a bit of an ad-hoc approach when trying to balance the damage/armour in the game. Instead could all the numbers please be looked at holistically. WoM has really suffered through patching problems rather than really addressing the cause of these problems in the past and now we have a good direction it would be a shame to make that mistake again.
A big 'enjoyment' issue has always been that you only ever need one stack to conquer the world. It makes the game really boring really quickly - and even with all the great changes for the game this version is addressing, this problem is still with us. The AI sits patiently is his cities with their forces all nicely distributed while you just roll through with your mega stack. Keeping a single unit or two in your cities is all you need to protect them because of the bonuses to defence. This defensive bonus was introduced to patch the problem of cities being too easy to conquer.
I picked up Hegemony the other day (awesome game BTW) and the way they abstract siege warfare could work very well for WoM as well going some way toward fixing the problem mentioned above.
In Hegemony cities are either walled or un-walled. In WoM we have different classes of wall for cities which is fine.
In Hegemony walls need to be reduced before you can attack. Unwalled cities can be attacked right away. Reducing the walls takes time. While walls are being reduced the besieging units take attrition damage at a steady rate. The more units besieging the city the less time it takes to reduce the city and so the less damage is accrued to units. The more units defending the city the longer it takes and so more damage is accrued to the besieging units. Siege warfare weapons give bonuses to both the defending damage attrition if they are on the defenders side or shortening the wall reduction time if they are on the attackers side.
This could work very well for WoM as well. This whole siege side of things is missing from WoM but the above model is entirely abstracted so it would require very little in terms of art assets etc and when a city battle takes place - it is simply the battle once the breach has occurred. So even the current tactical battle maps would be OK.
Introducing something like this would go some way to addressing the formulaic approach players have for playing WoM and make it a little more strategic.
There are 4 main reasons this happens from a strategic point of view:
1. Teleport is cheap and easy and allows you to retreat to defend anything in your territory.
2. The AI does not attack your weak points. If the AI was in the habit of attacking undefended cities people would garrison more and blob less.
3. Monsters are not a threat to cities with even one half decent garrison unit.
4. AIs don't team up on strong players.
If the AI was in the habit of declaring war if it noticed all your units were far away from your mutual border and that a bunch of cities were undefended then that would be in even better. Really any AI that is not your best friend should ruthlessly attack any city that is weakly defended on the border unless there is a huge strength difference between you, even if your not at war. They should also only declare war after they have troops in position, and none of that bus fare home for peace stuff....
DsRaider and Das123, nice summary of major issues with the AI. This is the reason why I rarely play the game - too easy to win as AI does not present a challenge for a player that uses one large army with archers and a spell blasting sovereign to launch a conquest steamroller.
The question is how to solve this problem? What logic rules should the AI follow? Should Teleport be nerfed (as was bows) by having two spell; one for just the caster (Level 2 and it costs 25 mana) and the other for an entire army (Level 5 & it costs 250 mana)? How should the AI team up on stronger players? How should the AI decide to attack a city? Should the AI build its own steamroller - instead of fielding several small armies that have the same target destination?
Proposed Teleport: Level 5 cost of 250 mana is 10x the cost of just teleporting the caster (Level 2). Why? Teleporting 500, 1000 or 2000 warriors should consume more mana than teleporting 1 person.
I've been playing a decent amount of MOM lately which has given me a good compare/contrast. I'm in a current Impossible game as Sorcery using Beastmaster race. One of the opposing factions already has stack of doom invisible sky drakes and I'm rolling with Minotaurs (have Adamantium though). On top of that the same wizard has suppress magic on so I can't cast a damn overland spell. The AI has me by my balls. Have never experienced that kind of spanking with WOM but I'll be damned if MOM Impossible isn't a real challenge. If I end up winning this game I'm buying a lottery ticket. I WANT EWOM to kick my ass like this.
Below are some off the cuff gut feel solutions that may possible for Brad to implement. I'm purposely ignoring things that I don't think will be possible for Brad to do as a 1 man show.
Actually, I think this is pretty much what Dsraider said, lol.
We just need to realize what is doable and not doable since Brad is the only resource.
But Brad has always been the only AI guy.
Also I Imagine that most the work on the AI here will be brought over to FE as well, and work on the FE AI back-ported probably as well eventually.
About how to make the AIs work better together I suggest three concrete, very specific, and relatively easy measures. If they already exist they should be made stronger and much more noticeable.
1. Any player who is at war gets a diplomatic penalty with all none allied players, so that they are more likely to get double teamed. This is also very realistic. War tends to be contagious and spread to multiple fronts.
2. AIs will seek to ally against the strongest team. I know the AI asks you to fight other players but do they actually do it amongst themselves? If one player is strong the AIs should be going for mutual protection treaties amongst themselves to form a bloc.
3. AIs should fear imperialists. If the strongest player is at war then they get a huge diplomatic penalty.
Played a few hours last night and so far I like the short build time for improvements. The step from 1 turn to 10 on the larger improvements is a bit steep though. I also liked that I could scout with my sov for the first turns without having monsters razing my town.
* I have an idea for caravans. If a caravan is killed (while on an already established trade route), it should be restarted automatically after say... 3 turns? I hate that I have to rebuild caravans and send them down the road manually, it just sucks.
* Units put on "guard" should not show up when I cycle through units with TAB.
* I still want more HP.
Well I have played my 1st game with this new ver and everything went well but one crash. Much better now and keeps getting better.
hope this helps cheers.
Pet Peeve #1: My Sovereign in leather armor and a lone peasant combat unit faces off 3 powerful attack units with 29 HP each on a map with fences. What happens? The enemy AI units follow my combat unit around the map, ignoring my Arcane Arrow costing sovereign. The AI units move past my sovereign ignoring him. The AI units never catch my combat unit and my Sovereign dispatches them with Arcane Arrow spells which he casts 10+ times.
Partial Solution: If AI unit is next to sovereign attack sovereign unit.
Pet Peeve #2: AI sovereign only casts Arcane arrow in combat. Does it not research and know Spell Blast (AOE spell),Spell Immunity or Wind Shield?
Pet Peeve #3: My companies of Longbow archers decimate the enemy whose sovereign never casts Wind Shield to protect his troops.
Partial Solution: If AI Army is facing army with Archers equipped with bows that real damage (i.e. not the weak bows that do no damage against armored units) then Sovereign should cast Wind Shield.
Idea: Spice up combat with recruitable magic casting heros that know one tactical spell from a single spell book - Earth, Air, Fire, Enchantment, etc. Encountering an AI army accompanied by a spell-casting witch that knows Pull of the Earth or Haste would spice things up and make combat less predictable.
Just rewrote the way the AI learns spells and working on how it decides which ones to cast in tactical battles.
I'll post screenshots here as soon as I start seeing results.
Most Excellent.
Suggestion: You may have to look at how the AI levels up the spell casting sovereign. If he is a magic focused sovereign he should be putting most, if not all of his stat points into Intelligence to boost the damage done by Arcane Arrow (Dam: 50% of Int) and Spell Blast (Dam: 30% of Int) - the two most commonly used damage dealing spells.
Example: While my sovereign is doing 10 points of damage with Spell Blast to six units, or 15 points of Arcane Arrow Damage to one unit the AI sovereign was continually casting Arcane Arrow for 5 points of damage (due to Int of 10). Apparantly, this spell casting Sovereign never put any level up points into improving his Int stats - and thus was a wimpy spell caster.
With such a low Int stat the AI sovereign would have done better charging into battle to attack my spell casting sovereign or casting buff spells such as Spell Immunity, Haste, or Wind Shield (if facing archer units).
Idea: What spells the sovereign casts should be a function of his intelligence - higher intelligence should tend toward damage dealing spells, while lower intelligence towards spells that buff a unit or all units.
Idea: If AI faces a wimpy opponent it should conserve its mana and not use magic in the battle.
Have Sovs started to use points at all from leveling up? Last time I played their stats never improved when they leveled.
One Ui thing that I've changed because it's buggy is forcing there to only be 1 pioneer.
Instead, I've made it so that you can build groups of pioneers (and caravans) and you simply get a bonus (like a higher initial population) for building bigger groups.
I've also redone how the AI chooses city upgrades to be a bit mroe intelligent about it (it was just random before).

Staff Writer
WILLIAMSON - The area has seen a large number of local musicians get discovered recently, with each one getting a start for a chance at stardom.
Holly White can now be added to that list.
The 19-year-old pop singer/songwriter from Belfry, Ky., who likened herself to Avril Lavigne and Taylor Swift, sat down the Daily News on Thursday to discuss her inspirations, influences, aspirations and dreams.
And like most musicians, she's had experience. However, in her case, she's been practicing for nearly 80 percent of her entire life.
"I've been singing since I was 2-years-old," Holly said. "I was watching the Wizard of Oz and I just started singing along."
The image of a toddler singing "Somewhere, Over the Rainbow," in one's mind was not a stretch, Holly said.
While she said she was always a fan of Judy Garland, she did not influence her. Unlike many young musicians, she wasn't caught up in what was fashionable at the time to motivate her. Rather, it was her family that started her down a musical path.
"My brother, Brandon, influenced me a lot," Holly said. "He plays guitar and sings. My dad, Oscar, sang in church. My mom, Sandra Cline, supports me and drives me to places to sing."
While racking her brain for anyone else, she said that she had to mention her sister, Kayla.
"She sings as well," Holly said. "I sort of got her into that."
When the family is together at home, Holly said they often sing and play music.
However, Holly said she wasn't interested much in instruments. Despite that, she still called herself a "triple threat."
"I sing, dance and act," Holly said. "I took dance lessons since I was 3-years-old with Ms. Flippin, now I'm mainly self-taught"
She also spoke of how she was cast in performances at BHS, in the choir during the Cotton Patch and an extra in Steel Magnolias.
When not performing in her variety of ways, the triple-threat of Holly said that she enjoyed participating in 4-H programs in Kentucky and Ohio, most recently having helped with a military kids camp. She is currently enrolled at Big Sandy Community and Technical College, but hasn't chosen a major yet. Though, she said she was leaning towards theatre, for obvious reasons.
Now that she has signed with John Carlin's Lyrick Talent Group, Inc., she told the Daily News that in two weeks, she'll be in studio laying down tracks for her demo CD. And, it is hoped, before too long, she'll be performing around the globe.
However, everyone has to start somewhere. But that's okay with her, since she said that she enjoys performing no matter the venue.
"I love it," Holly said. "The biggest reward I get is when people applaud after my song. I guess it helps that I have a passion for what I'm doing.
She said that her biggest event was at the Kentucky State Fair, where she performed for approximately 1,000 people. After her performance, those 1,000 people rewarded her with an applause.
While attending WinterFest one year with a friend, with around 28,000 people in attendance, she shared a memory with the Daily News.
"I looked at my friend and said, 'I'm going to be performing here one day."
And she has the confidence to do it, and said Carlin has had an impact on that.
"He tells me to change my 'ifs' to 'whens,'" she said.
So when she gets there, where does she see herself in one year? "Doing shows to get noticed."
Within five years?
"Well, hopefully I'll be a star," Holly said, laughing.
She said that she doesn't want to make it big by being on some reality TV show, but wasn't entirely opposed to it.
"I'd rather come out from nowhere," she said. "With people saying 'Where did she come from?!'"
To brace herself for that impact, she has already fixed her Twitter name to handle her inevitable explosion of fame. She uses @RealHollyWhite, and looks forward to getting that verified checkmark to separate her from the posers that would try to be her.
Holly said she has a collection of 20 songs that she has written, that are mostly based on: love, losing love, hating love, being yourself and religion.
"I have a couple of Christian songs I've written," Holly said. "My religion is very important to me."
And while on the topic of BSCTC, she said she participated in the Big Sandy Idol competition while in high school. Although she didn't win, she came away as an honorable mention.
That didn't stop her from achieving her dream. This 19-year-old is now a professional recording artist.
And how might that feel?

Optimal Chia Seeds by Seeking Health are black chia seeds high in Omega-3, Protein, Fiber, Antioxidants, B-Vitamins, Calcium, and Boron, and are very beneficial in overall health care. Save money. Buy black chia seeds instead of white chia seeds! There is no nutritional difference between them. Enjoy our Bulk Pricing on Optimal Chia Seeds. See below for quantity discounts on our Optimal Chia Seeds. Optimal Chia Seeds ship free on orders over $75.00.
We offer naturally-organic and chemical-free Optimal Chia Seeds in bulk 1 lb resealable bags. Optimal Chia Seeds are a great super food with an outstanding nutritional profile. As a natural food source that is highly concentrated with a complex supply of quality nutrients. Optimal Chia Seeds Contain:
Optimal Chia Seeds contain many essential nutrients and may be helpful with the following health conditions:
How to Prepare and Use the Optimal Chia Seeds
Optimal Chia Seeds should be considered part of your regular diet, not a supplement. They can be added to all of your favorite meals just like you would add a spice, and since the Optimal Chia Seeds have little to no taste, you won't even realize they're there! Simply sprinkle them over salads, soups, veggies, or any other foods of your choice, and help benefit your overall health without even tasting it.
The lack of taste in Optimal Chia Seeds is very important since you usually end up with healthy foods that have strong flavors or unfamiliar textures, making it a challenge to consume them. You can add Optimal Chia Seeds directly to your foods, dry, or as a gel. Whether you are eating Optimal Chia Seeds in your food dry, as a gel, or directly from the container (not recommended, but possible), remember to drink an ample amount of water, as you normally would when consuming any food that is high in fiber.
How to make Chia Gel: Put 1/3 cup of dried chia seeds into a resealable glass container. Add two cups of filtered water and stir with a whisk. Wait 5-10 minutes and whisk again before refrigerating. Chia gel will last up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator. If you choose to eat the Optimal Chia Seeds in a gel form, you can add them right in to jams, jellies, peanut butter, milkshakes, nut spreads, smoothies, hot or cold cereals, yogurts, mustard, ketchup, tartar sauce, barbecue sauces, and more. It makes a great fat substitute, promoting energy and endurance.
High in Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Optimal Chia Seeds naturally contain more than 60% of Omega-3 fatty acids--higher than any other plant we know of. Chia seeds do not have to be ground up prior to consumption like many other seeds that are high in good fats such as Omega-3s--which adds a huge convenience factor in adding them to your diet.
High in Protein
Between 19–23 percent of the Chia seed by weight is protein--a much higher protein weight than other seeds and grains. Good fats combined with an excellent source of protein make Optimal Chia Seeds perfect for those who are dieting.
High in Fiber
Optimal Chia Seeds can absorb up to 30 times their weight in liquids such as juice or water. This ability can prolong hydration (we call it time-released water) and retain electrolytes in body fluids, especially during peaks of exertion or exercise. A 15 gram serving of Optimal Chia Seeds can provide you with 4-5 grams of fiber.
Optimal Chia Seeds contain Vitamin C and Vitamin E, but also have Cinnamic acids. It is believed that these three (especially the Cinnamic acid) help preserve the seeds and, more importantly, protect the good fats from oxidizing (going bad). Because of this process, Optimal Chia Seeds can last for years.
Just 2 oz. of Optimal Chia Seeds contain 600 mg of Calcium--compared with 120 mg for milk. Optimal Chia Seeds are a top suggestion for those seeking more calcium in their diet without resorting to tablets or capsules. Plus, Optimal Chia Seeds contain Boron--a critical mineral in bone health--so it's ideal for those concerned with Osteoporosis and overall bone care.
Health Benefits of Chia Seeds:
Weight and Blood Sugar Level Control
Having fiber before a meal can help curb your appetite by giving you the sense of being full. Since Optimal Chia Seeds can absorb up to 30 times their weight in water, you will have the sensation of feeling full though you have not consumed a lot of food.
Also, as previously mentioned, Optimal Chia Seeds are high in protein. Protein is very beneficial in any metabolic maintenance program since it provides a great energy source and helps in assuring that you keep your muscle mass while burning off fat.
When Optimal Chia Seeds are mixed with water or stomach juices, a gel forms that creates a physical barrier between the carbohydrates and the digestive enzymes that break them down. The carbohydrates are digested eventually, but at a slow and uniform rate. Optimal Chia Seed gel also can slow digestion and help balance blood sugar levels. There is no insulin surge or spike needed to lower the blood sugar level after eating Optimal Chia Seeds. This balancing of blood sugar levels is also critical for those with both hyper (high) and hypo (low) blood sugar.
Heart Disease Prevention
With regards to heart disease, the Optimal Chia Seeds can provide added dietary support. We know that a high-fiber diet is recommended for those with high cholesterol and other forms of cardiovascular disease. Also, Omega-3 fatty acids are recommended for heart health. The Omega-3 fatty acids found in the Optimal Chia Seeds (ALA) can be converted into EPA (the heart-healthy component of fish oil). Adding a few servings of the Optimal Chia Seeds to your regular diet is a huge step in the right direction for anyone concerned with cardiovascular disease.
Overall Good Bone Health
As previously mentioned, the Optimal Chia Seeds are high in calcium and other minerals known to be helpful in overall bone health. Getting your minerals (and vitamins) from a food source, instead of using tablets or capsules is most ideal. You get better digestion, absorption, and retention when they come from food rather than synthetic products. A recent study showed that women who consumed more calcium in their regular diet had better bone health and required less calcium than those who took most of their calcium from supplements.
Digestive Disorders
Fiber is critical for healthy digestion. We need to consume 35+ grams of fiber per day and if it doesn't come from your food you must supplement. Now, with Chia, 1 tablespoon serving can give you about 1/5 of your daily needs (7.4 grams). One tablespoon of Chia isn't very much, so we recommend at least 2 to 4 per day as part of your everyday diet.

After hearing Dr Ben speak about Chia seed on one of the podcasts, I decided to try them. My order arrived quickly and was well packaged and dry. I made some of the Chia gel and (rather nervously) tried it with some peanut butter spread on some sprouted grain toast. It was really good! Great and painless way to add fiber, plus you get all the additional benefits Chia offers. Thanks for all the great information you provide on your website!!

Locally chia seeds go for $22 per pound, so I decided to see if I could get a better deal elsewhere. The chia seeds I ordered from HealthEGoods were much more reasonable, and were the same or better quality than the seeds I'd bought locally. The seeds arrived quickly and in good shape. I will definitely do business with this company again!
(Posted on 10/17/12)
Great item from seller! Prompt delivery and my chia seeds were safe and sound (and dry)! My favorite way to eat/drink the seeds is by making the gel and then adding a few tablespoons of the gel to lime juice. So refreshing!

To get the most out of Chia, make Chia Gel. It's one part Chia Seeds to 9 parts water. I make it in a Mason jar (shake or stir until the seeds begin to suspend in the gel) and keep it in the refrigerator. It creates a thick gel that you can add to most anything and it doesn't change the flavor. Chia seeds are phenomenal. (Posted on 10/17/12)
This is my first experience with Chia. I bought the book and read the nutritional value of the product. I have been using it for a month. It really cleanses the digestive system. It takes getting used to at first, as it has the texture of Okra. It has no flavor to speak of, so I use it twice daily and have sprinkled it on cereal, salads and mixed it half and half with jam. With Jam, used when it is mixed with water. I mix up a 1/2 cup of Chia with 9 equal parts of water and put it in the refrigerator to have available to use. I have a cup of green tea and put approx. 1/4 cup in the tea. (Posted on 10/17/12)
Honestly, the idea of Chia "gel" is not appealing to me at all. I haven't tried it yet, so I guess I can't knock it. However, mixing them in oatmeal, yogurt, smoothies and sprinkling them on things works great for me. They really do have almost no flavor. I often just eat them by the spoonful. It takes a little getting used to as they can stick in your teeth and are kind of dry. I often eat a spoonful followed by a big glass of water about 1/2 hour before meals. They really help keep me full so I eat less at meal time. (Posted on 10/17/12)

I ordered 3 lbs of chia seeds and were happy to see them arrive in a solid cardboard package in sealed bags of 1 pound each. I've read that other sellers just cram a single bag of seeds into a padded envelope and I was glad to recieve such study packaging, made me feel confident in the quality of the product and the seller. Order ID: # 41620 (Posted on 10/17/12)
The order was arrived on the scheduled day and in excellent condition. I would definately order this product again. Order ID: # 41860 (Posted on 10/17/12)
The chia seeds are exactly like other chia seeds I have had. They are excellent and I think they have far-ranging health benefits. You can mix them with coconut put hot water on the mix and eat them like a hot cereal. Truly delicious. Plus, HealthE Goods customer service was EXCELLENT. Thank you! (Posted on 10/17/12)
