Daron Vartan Malakian was born on July 18, 1975 in Hollywood, CA as an only child to Vartan and Zepur Malakian. Like all members of the greatest band in the world, System of a Down, he has Armenian ancestry. His love for music started when he was 4 years old. His cousin played him a KISS record and, like most people in their right mind, he loved it. Daron originally wanted to be a drummer, but his parents bought him a guitar so that they could sleep at night. He started liking heavy metal bands like Cannibal Corpse when he was a teen, but at about 17 he was listening to The Beatles. Daron was also a fan of the LA Kings hockey team. In 1993, something happened that would lead to the best thing ever. Daron met Serj Tankian. They shared the same rehearsal studio but they were in separate bands at the time. Daron played lead guitar for one band, and Serj played keyboard for the other. The beginning of System of a Down was then created. They had named this new band "Soil". Soon after, they accepted Shavo Odadjian as their bassist. Soil's name was changed to System of a Down after a poem Daron wrote named Victims of a Down. Andy Khachaturian was their drummer who was replaced by John Dolmayan. Daron wrote half of the lyrics and most of the music for System of a Down's songs. Some songs could be about the Armenian Genocide (look it up... it's terrible), crazy random stuff, and anything in between. System's debut album was rele... |

To the Times:
The American public's appetite for a Washington sex scandal is unexplainable at best, hypocritical at its worst.
The FBI has known about the inappropriate relationship between Paula Broadwell and Gen. David Petraeus as early as the summer of 2012. The FBI has also known that there was no threat to national security and that the affair had ended. The issue then becomes one of disclosure. Why wasn't the president informed that one of his top national security officers was being investigated and why wasn't the information just given to the president and House and Senate intelligence committees? Why didn't it end there?
The FBI is supposed to investigate crime and prevent terrorism against the American people, yet all our resources and tax dollars are being wasted chasing emails between generals and their love interests. What about privacy and the Patriot Act?
The Patriot Act is triggered by suspicion of terrorism. Is Ms. Broadwell a terror threat? The bureau's history would make the privacy question especially significant; in his decades-long reign as the F.B.I.'s first director, J. Edgar Hoover sometimes directed agents to spy improperly on the sex lives of public figures and then used the resulting information to pressure or blackmail them. History should make us wary of these types of investigations.
David Gergen, CNN commentator, said it best when he said, "The best of men are just men at their best." Gen. David Petraeus is a war hero and a man whose commitment to the United States is unquestionable. Yet in less than 30 seconds we salivate at his destruction. The media circles like vultures eating the carcass of a man who has been felled by one single bullet of infidelity. In the end, at least four families will be destroyed but the cameras would have left by then. My heart goes out to Gen. Petraeus' family, Gen. John Allen's family and the Broadwell family. However, Jill Kelley, the woman who reported this to the FBI, will get her due.
How can one be so stupid? Ms. Kelley, a Tampa socialite, seemed to be having an affair with Gen. Allen or they were exchanging inappropriate emails. How could she not surmise that her email accounts and email history would not be investigated? The boomerang effect – people who live in glass houses should not throw stones. Jesus Christ said it best when he said, "Let him that is without sin cast the first stone."
In this time of crisis, we need leadership. The president must step in and say that if no crime has been committed, the FBI needs to wrap up this investigation.
Sending the FBI over to the Pentagon and CIA to start checking everyone's personal email account is a clear invasion of privacy that will bring Washington to its knees and make us the laughingstock to the rest of the civilized world. Maybe we need to send the FBI over to the House and Senate too to check the 435 personal email accounts of our elected representatives. This must end and end soon.

Kingwood, TX
Overview of Kingwood
Known as the "Livable Forest," Kingwood is a community located in northeast Houston, Texas. With a population of 65,000 according to the city's website, this thriving Texas town is best known for its heavily wooded forest away from the jostle of Houston. Despite its small town feel, Kingwood has maintained steady growth ever since Houston began its sprawl. With its naturally beautiful setting and excellent schools, it is no wonder that many Texans are giving Kingwood apartments for rent a second look.
Living in Kingwood, TX
The areas surrounding Kingswood were originally owned by the Foster Lumber Company. It wasn't until 1967 when a subsidiary of Exxon, Friendswood Development Company, and King Ranch, one of the oldest cattle and quarter horse ranches in the state, began construction on a suburb in Houston, that the city began to truly thrive.
As Houston continued to sprawl in the 1980s, more and more families made their move to Kingwood in search of jobs and attractive homes. By the 1990s, Kingwood became a town in its own right when it was annexed by Houston in 1996.
Ever since, Kingwood has remained a bustling suburb that gives many in the Houston area a chance to experience everything a big city has to offer while still enjoying the rural farming and ranching communities that made the area famous.
Kingwood Work and Study
Kingwood has experienced a stunning 88 percent increase in jobs despite a struggling economy. According to the Kingwood Chamber of Commerce, there are over 2,500 businesses who serve the Texas town, mostly due to its 23 minute drive from downtown Houston and 9 minute trip from Bush Intercontinental Airport.
One of the largest institutions of higher learning in the area is Lone Star College. Lone Star College offers two-year degrees and certifications in a variety of fields while also providing partnerships with many four-year universities. Many students also commute to Texas Southern University, one of the nation's largest Historically Black Colleges and Universities. A sprawling 150-acre campus, this university is known for accepting students from many different social and cultural backgrounds. If you are a student looking for rentals in Kingwood, you may want to begin your apartment search early in the summer since rentals may be hard to find in the weeks before classes resume in the fall.
Rentals in Kingwood, TX and Cost of Living
The median rent in the Kingwood area in 2009 was $1,169 per month, a very affordable price in the Houston area. Since the median household income was $107,815, there should be a wide range of rentals and apartments for renters to choose from in the Kingwood area.
Kingwood Attractions and Special Events
One of the most popular attractions in the area is Kingwood Cove Golf Club, a par 71 championship 18-hole golf course that has beautiful pine tree-lined fairways with a variety of tournaments and memberships.
If cars are more your thing, check out one the community's many auto shows. One of the most popular is the Texas Hoedown, a festival that features classic cars that pre-date 1972 featuring a swap meet, live music, roller derby and many local vendors.
Another one of the most popular community events every year is Kingwood's Mardi Gras Festival and Parade. Part of the Town Center Park Association, the festival features live jazz music, arts and crafts, and local food and beverages to Kingwood residents.

With congressional leadership signaling their support for getting a new farm bill in place within the next several months, activity has begun in earnest to develop legislation that can be enacted this year. The 2008 Farm Bill expired on September 30, 2012, though many of its provisions were extended for one year in legislation that was passed in January to avoid the looming fiscal cliff. The Senate and House Agriculture Committees released their bills on May 9 and 10 respectively and debated the bills in committee this week, according to the Wildlife Management Institute.
The Gulf Coast Prairie Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GCP LCC), one of 22 LCCs across North America, was established to advance the efforts of federal, state, tribal and non-government entities to conserve the natural and cultural resources of the western coast of the Gulf of Mexico and the Oaks and Prairies, Edwards Plateau, and Tamaulipan Brushlands regions of Texas, Oklahoma, and northern Mexico. The GCP LCC initiated six science projects in 2011 and 2012 to provide critical information needed by agencies to protect fish, wildlife, and habitats across this region. With support from the Wildlife Management Institute (WMI), the GCP LCC is now soliciting statements of interest for four additional projects to further enhance conservation.
Lakes and wetlands in Alaskan National Wildlife Refuges (NWRs) provide habitat diversity in boreal forests and critical breeding habitats for millions of migratory waterfowl and shorebirds in North America. Widespread reports of lake drying in the current warming climate suggest that breeding habitats may decline. Any loss of these breeding habitats may have local effects on biodiversity and on subsistence and sport hunting economies as well as far-reaching effects along migratory routes that extend to more southerly parts of North America, South America, Asia, and Australia. In 2006, the Alaska Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Unit began a research program to investigate the magnitude, mechanisms, and biological implications of lake drying in Alaskan refuges. Three research objectives have been met, while work is in progress to meet the other two study objectives.
Evidence that climate change is impacting species and ecosystems in the Northeast Region is growing. These impacts pose significant challenges to the future conservation of our fish, wildlife, and habitats requiring managers to improve conservation tools and modify management strategies within a changing climate. The most urgent question that needs to be answered before others can be fully addressed is: which species and habitats are likely to be vulnerable to, or benefit from, the changing climate? A collaborative project, funded in part by a Northeast Regional Conservation Need (RCN) grant, is underway to assess the long-term implications of climate change on the region's fish and wildlife populations, reports the Wildlife Management Institute. The purpose of the Northeast RCN Grant Program is to address critical landscape-scale wildlife conservation needs by combining the resources of numerous wildlife management agencies, leveraging State Wildlife Grant funds, and prioritizing conservation actions identified in State Wildlife Action Plans.
When I was growing up in central New Jersey, deer were a constant in my family's life. I vividly remember the weeklong firearm buck season with my grandfather's hunt club, culminating in hanging the bucks with all the hunters lined up for a picture after the closing day. I recall racing a large buck on the back of my horse through the woods behind my house one time, and watching does and fawns emerge in late spring in our pastures. But then, I also remember that throughout the year, deer were nibbling on the Christmas trees, corn and soybeans on the family farm. That is, when we weren't swerving to miss them on our country roads or fretting about contracting Lyme disease from the ubiquitous deer ticks.
The 79th North American Wildlife and Natural Resources Conference will be held March 10-15, 2014, in Denver, Colorado. The Conference Steering Committee is seeking ideas and participation from professional conservation interests to help develop the conference agenda. In particular, recommendations for topics, potential co-chairs and presenters for four Special Sessions are invited. Ideas for prospective plenary keynote speakers are also welcome.
Founded in 1911, WMI is a private, nonprofit, scientific and educational organization, dedicated to the conservation, enhancement and professional management of North America's wildlife and other natural resources.

Gossip Girl star Blake Lively may have been involved in a nude photo scandal last year, but the actress says she has no interest in appearing naked on camera anytime soon. Talking to Style Magazine, Blake says that she's not a fan of actors appearing nude on screen, saying "When I see nudity in movies, I am always distracted by it. I know that if I am watching a scene and someone has their boobs out, then that's all I'm looking at – I can't help it."
Lively added that she doesn't see nude scenes in her future, saying "I just don't think that will ever be right for me." You can catch Blake looking fashionable and fully clothed when the final season of Gossip Girl airs this fall on MUCH.

The latest pet care news, adoptable pets, and cruelty alerts.
Dogs permitted by their owners to run loose, and dogs who attack people or other animals, are real and often serious problems in communities across the country—but how to best address dangerous and potentially dangerous dogs can be a confusing and touchy issue.
"Breed-specific" legislation (BSL) is the blanket term for laws that either regulate or ban certain breeds completely in the hopes of reducing dog attacks. Some city/municipal governments have enacted breed-specific laws. However, the problem of dangerous dogs will not be remedied by the "quick fix" of breed-specific laws—or, as they should truly be called, breed-discriminatory laws.
It is worth noting that in some areas, regulated breeds include not just American Pit Bull terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, English Bull Terriers and Rottweilers, but also a variety of other dogs, including American Bulldogs, Mastiffs, Dalmatians, Chow Chows, German Shepherds, Doberman Pinschers, or any mix of these breeds—and dogs who simply resemble these breeds.
On the bright side, many states (including New York, Texas and Illinois) favor laws that identify, track and regulate dangerous dogs individually, regardless of breed, and prohibit BSL.
There is no evidence that breed-specific laws—which are costly and difficult to enforce—make communities safer for people or companion animals. For example, Prince George's County, MD, spends more than $250,000 annually to enforce its ban on Pit Bulls. In 2003, a study conducted by the county on the ban's effectiveness noted that "public safety is not improved as a result of [the ban]," and that "there is no transgression committed by owner or animal that is not covered by another, non-breed specific portion of the Animal Control Code (i.e., vicious animal, nuisance animal, leash laws)."
Following a thorough study of human fatalities resulting from dog bites, the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) decided not to support BSL. The CDC cited, among other problems, the inaccuracy of dog bite data and the difficulty in identifying dog breeds (especially true of mixed-breed dogs). The CDC also noted the likelihood that as certain breeds are regulated, those who exploit dogs by making them aggressive will replace them with other, unregulated breeds.
BSL carries a host of negative and wholly unintended consequences:
In the aforementioned study, the CDC noted that many other factors beyond breed may affect a dog's tendency toward aggression—things such as heredity, sex, early experience, reproductive status, socialization and training. These last two concerns are well-founded, given that:
Recognizing that the problem of dangerous dogs requires serious attention, the ASPCA seeks effective enforcement of breed-neutral laws that hold dog owners accountable for the actions of their animals.

Greensleeves rises to a new standard of quality in cleaning with the highest regard for health, both our customers and our employees, and a most sincere respect for the environment. The primary goal is a new level of quality, a cleaner clean, without the chemical residue or the detrimental effects of harsh, toxic solvents.
Keil Bros' garden center and nursery is heartily stocked with a plethora of seasonally changing plant products hailing from a number of regional growers, including Chesapeake Nursery and Monrovia Nursery. With the summer solstice recently passed, the center's verdant and sprawling inventory is now focused on helping the mid-season gardener. Ready-to-go planters ($25–$50) and pre-arranged hanging baskets ($15–$25) keep green thumbs green and pristine fingernails clean while also adding opulent oxygen sources to homesteads. Come the auburns of autumn, Keil Bros turns its gardens over to organic goodies such as apples from the Hudson Valley, ornamental cabbages, and pumpkins just begging to be brought to cackling life through blade and flame. Year-round, the center also provides essential tools and lawn-care goods from brands such as Toro and Lawn-Boy.
Since Jim and Mike Amore opened Jet Cleaners in 1956, the place has become a rite of passage not only for Mike Amore Jr., who worked there as a teen and now represents the third generation of his family's business, but for New Haven residents. The company's Facebook page fondly catalogs photos of staff through the decades, occasionally noting the growth of their careers and families, or marking their passing. The good feelings are mutual, as the community voted Jet Cleaners Elm City's Best Dry Cleaner and Tailor in 2011. Voting with their dollars, the Yale Repertory Theater and Yale Medical School entrust Amore and his team with their costumes and lab coats, a practice begun after hearing the school's dean relied on them to starch his upper lip. A light touch with these delicate materials extends to refreshing heirloom quilts and wedding gowns, as well as tailoring suits. Free weekly pickup and delivery services save trips to the cleaner's modernist building on State Street, which is instantly recognizable not only for its austere design but also for the garden flourishing within its glass walls.
In 1929, Tom Pinchbeck's great grandfather traveled to Guilford with his family and staked their new territory with a massive greenhouse. For the next 79 years, Pinchbeck's Rose Farm nurtured 100,000 rose bushes until highly industrial competition began to cloud their traditional production methods.
Rather than closing the doors on his farm, Pinchbeck restructured the business with his friend Jim Lyman. Lyman had been seeking a meaningful job opportunity for his son and other individuals on the autism spectrum. Through Roses for Autism—and in coordination with Ability Beyond Disability—Lyman and Pinchbeck aim to facilitate independence in the business world for individuals with autism. Employees at the farm take part in each step of the process by selecting roses, cutting stems, arranging bouquets, checking inventories, processing orders, and packaging shipments to be enjoyed by hungry bees and brides across the country.
Eco Green Cleaners drivers zip throughout Armonk, Pleasantville, and Bronxville, picking up and dropping off clothes of all kinds. Each garment is meticulously dry cleaned with nontoxic and biodegradable solvents—or with hydrocarbon dry-cleaning techniques—and processed with energy-efficient machines for a minimal impact on the environment. Clean clothes are returned in biodegradable or reusable bags, and the cleaners recycle their hangers to reduce waste. In addition to its dry-cleaning and shirt-laundry services, Eco Green also cleans leather, suede, and rugs, preserves wedding dresses, and alters clothes to accommodate weight changes or tail growth.
The owners of Big Z Cleaners, Twin City Dry Cleaners, & Squeeky's Cleaners & Laundromat wash and dry-clean garments with environmentally friendly practices and a keen eye for detail honed over a span of 40 years. After dry-cleaning silk blouses, suits, or dress shirts stained with business-related marinara sauce, specialists press collars and cuffs and preserve their shapes with a customizable dose of starch. The team also carefully executes wash, dry, and fold services that conclude with exemplary folding and placement on hangers.

Strong and good umbrella. Like that it is bright and cheery. I want to buy the same but with a different drawing!

Poorly made
These Jonathan Adler umbrellas have a very cute print but are of extremely poor quality. I bought one for myself and one for my sister. Both umbrellas are broken after less than 5 uses. These are worse than the umbrellas they sell on the street. I would only recommend buying this if you're looking for a disposable umbrella.

Looking for something to get you through your last final? Getting pumped up for Dead Week revelry? Just want something #orangeandblack to rage to? Hats off to Nikki Muller '05, who I'm pretty sure has come up with this year's Reunions anthem. We think this song is gold.
UPDATE — We got in touch with Nikki Muller to get some insight on the inspiration behind her video. A few comments from the artist herself:
On the origins of this song:
The idea came from the fact that most female Ivy Leaguers super downplay their educations in a social setting because it's immediately perceived as bragging. My friend Aliza Pearl and I (class of '04, also in the video) were saying that guys react to you saying you went to Princeton on a date as if you just said you'd served time… "You went there? What for? When was that?"
On the choice of musical style:
I thought it'd be funny to, for once, give a girl a chance at some no-holds-barred Kanye West-style self-aggrandizing, which of course is best done through aggressive rapping.
On post-Princeton struggles, but seriously (#payattention2012):
The self-deprecating turn applies to a lot of us who are having a tough time finding jobs these days, and pretty much points out a great education doesn't guarantee you a comfortable life, nor does it mean you think you're better than anyone.
On douchey Whartonites:
I also went to the prom of a guy who'd gotten into Wharton when I was in high school, and he absolutely sounded exactly like Greg does in the video. His improv was a little too close for comfort.
On how this song can change your life:
I actually wrote it nearly a year ago and then put it away for a while because I was afraid the tongue-in-cheek quality wouldn't translate… then I revisited it and thought, "Why haven't I recorded this yet?!" The song's been my alarm ringtone on my phone for the past month, which a.) reminded me to get off my butt and make the music video and b.) motivates me to get out of bed. "You went to Princeton, bitch. Stop being lazy."
No promises of a live Reunions performance (yet), but Muller is starting to tour colleges with her musical standup, so keep an eye out (eating clubs, potential for next fall's comedy nights? Come on). In the meantime, the Ink suggests you follow her on Facebook and Twitter.

High school wrestling: Lake Catholic edges Madison in final match (with video)
When a dual is decided in the final match, it's usually 285-pounders throwing their weight around the mat. When Lake Catholic and Madison, two of the top teams in the area, met on Friday night, the finale was much different.
The Cougars' 106-pounder Liam Monahan pulled out a 9-7 overtime decision over Tyler McGroder in the evening's final bout, and Lake edged the Blue Streaks on the road, 34-29.
Madison beat West Geauga, 74-4 to start the night. The Cougars were equally dominant in a 58-12 win over Kenston.
Even on paper, the matchup between Madison and Lake looked about as even as possible. The Blue Streaks had Nick Montgomery (145) returning to the mat for the first time this season. The three-time state qualifier had back issues that kept him out for the first two months.
Also, Lake Catholic's returning state runner-up, Anthony Tutolo (126), had the night off to rest. Madison, though, wasn't at its best, making uncharacteristic mistakes.
"It really doesn't come down to that final match," Madison coach Ryan Wirtzberger said. "You can't hang it on a freshman who weighs 98 pounds. We made a lot of mistakes. (The team) didn't line up properly, which cost us points, and we had tons of cautions. It's like we have to go back to youth wrestling."
The Cougars trailed, 20-11, halfway through but won five of the last seven matches. Major decisions by Matt Ludwig (160) and Kaz Struna (170) gave the Cougars a 20-19 lead.
Madison heavyweight Sam Dull pinned Marcus DeSantis in the third period to bring the Blue Streaks to within two points, before McGroder lost to Monahan.
"You know you need to win the match, and if you don't the team loses — that's tough for any kid to have to do that, especially at 106 pounds," said Lake Catholic assistant Mike Matteo, filling in for Coach Jim Ayers, who was unable to attend the match. "It usually comes down to the bigger guys, but it made it fun tonight. You don't see that kind of excitement in a dual much anymore." Continued...
Pins by Montgomery and Aaron Sweeney (152) gave the Blue Streaks its 9-point lead through seven matches. Jacob Steigner (120) won by tech fall, and Ryan Montgomery (126) got a major decision in Tutolo's absence.
"The guys who won, and even some of the guys who lost, showed a lot of aggression," Wirtzberger said. "They didn't back down against a team like Lake Catholic, which is good to see. We just had a few guys not wrestle up to their ability."
Nick Montgomery, who finished seventh in the state as a freshman and fifth as a sophomore, returned with pins in both of his matches.
"He looked fantastic," Wirtzberger said. "He's going to be a force to be reckoned with at the local level, the state level and I think the national level. The kid has got all the tools in the world to be a state champion. That's his goal and our goal as a coaching staff."
A Jon Brace (195) pin and a major decision by returning state placer Brad Taton (113) helped give the Cougars enough bonus points to win the dual, even though the two teams split matches, 7-7.
"We think we're headed in the right direction with sectionals only a couple weeks away," Matteo said. "Even with state duals, we're going to see atmosphere's just like this."

Ohio State: Meyer not viewing Indiana as a cupcake
COLUMBUS — This is supposed to be cupcake time for the Ohio State football team, isn't it?
After back-to-back wins over top-25 teams Michigan State and Nebraska, the Buckeyes are in from some R&R against Indiana, right?
Urban Meyer's not buying it.
The Buckeyes (6-0) enter Saturday night's game at Indiana with a 17-game winning streak against the Hoosiers. The last time the Hoosiers defeated Ohio State was 1988 — four years before IU starting quarterback Cameron Coffman was born.
But Meyer isn't letting his team downshift into cruise control for Saturday's prime-time game.
The reason?
Hoosiers coach Kevin Wilson.
"Offensively, that guy's a heck of a coach," Meyer said. "He was at Northwestern back in the Randy Walker era. He was one of the originators of this up-tempo. … Tremendous. He was on the cutting edge."
If there's anyone who knows an effective up-tempo offense when he sees it, it's Meyer.
With the Hoosiers (2-3, 0-2) entering Saturday's game averaging 305.2 passing yards per game — and Ohio State yet to hold any team to less than 300 yards total offense in a game — Meyer's reasoning is sound: The Buckeyes have waltzed trough the Hoosiers for years, but this one could be different because of the new man in town — Wilson. Continued...
"He's a tough guy," Meyer said. "He's a very good coach. They're getting better in all phases. I wasn't here last year, but I watched some of their film. They're a much better team. They have pretty good players, too."
Indiana has lost three straight to Ball State, Northwestern and Michigan State after opening the season with two wins. But offense hasn't been the problem. Even in last week's four-point loss to Michigan State, the Hoosiers scored 27 points.
Wilson's offense has produced at least 24 points in each game.
Coffman diced up Michigan State's defense for 282 yards passing and three touchdowns. Nine different Hoosiers caught passes.
That Indiana ran for only 35 yards doesn't sway Meyer.
"They throw the ball very well," Meyer said.
Wilson shied away from Meyer's praise earlier this week and denied he is the innovator Meyer makes him out to be.
"You don't take your cards and fold your hand in college football. You have to play the cards," he said. "Coach Walker told me a long time ago that every hand is a winning hand, but you've got to know how to play the cards. Sometimes you're bluffing, sometimes you've got a good hand, but you've got to play your cards."
While Meyer heaped praise on Wilson, Wilson acknowledged the trump card Meyer holds in sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller.
Miller is coming off another spectacular game in which he ran for 186 yards and threw for 127 in a 63-38 win over Nebraska. Continued...
"It's not just the physical skill set," Wilson said. "You've watched him set his feet and throw the ball now vs. last year, and that's coaching. But that's also a kid that's committed to getting better, and he's playing at a good level. He's a great player."
How great depends on who is asked.
Some pundits have already thrust Miller into the conversation when it comes to the Heisman Trophy.
Meyer again shrugged off the Heisman talk this week and said he still doesn't think his sophomore quarterback is Heisman worthy yet.
But the time could be coming.
"He's got the ability," Meyer said. "But then again, I don't know who is (a candidate). We're only halfway through the season. In about two or three games, I think you can start talking about that."
Two or three statement type of games, starting with the one Saturday in Bloomington.
A statement for both the Buckeyes and their Heisman hopeful, not a weekend retreat or vacation like many other meetings with the Hoosiers have been.
Despite the past, Meyer insists this Indiana team poses a bigger threat to him, Miller and the Ohio State program.
All because of Kevin Wilson. Continued...

Review: Tokyo Jungle – Playstation 3
10:04am Tuesday 2nd October 2012 in Freetime By Adam Pettifer
Wow. This game is just… warped. To quote Jeremy Clarkson, it's "more warped than Windsor Castle after the fire". How to describe this game? An eat-em-up? A survive-em-up? I guess so.
Well, Tokyo Jungle is a downloadable game for the PS3. It costs £9.99 to download from the Playstation Network. It's a survival action game set in post-apocalyptic Tokyo… So far, so good. But there are no humans, just animals. For some reason, all of the humans have disappeared.
This means that all of the domestic pets such as cats and dogs are on the loose, all of the animals have escaped from the zoo, farm animals are running loose – it's mayhem. You have to pick an animal, either a carnivore or a herbivore and get out into the bleak ruins and survive.
The most obvious choice is to start as a tough, predatory carnivore. In this case, you begin as, er, a Pomeranian dog. You have to run around Tokyo as a fluffy handbag dog fighting and killing other animals, eating their carcasses and hiding from larger predators.
Also, of course, you have to mark as much territory as you can and claim it as your own. So it's a pee-em-up too. Do enough of this killing and territory marking and you can attract the interests of a mate. Your animal's lifespan is only limited and it's vital to do this to keep your lineage going. So let's say you were still a Pom – you would have to attract another Pomeranian dog – but she may or may not be interested in you depending on her class (mates come in Prime, Average or Desperate classes – charming). If she was a Prime mate – you would have to mark more and more territory until you had use of the local nest – and then kill and eat enough prey that she would be suitably impressed.
After this, it's possible to lure your new mate to your nest and, er, mate. There is some light butt-sniffing, followed by the beginning of the male mounting the female, then the camera fades to black. So it's a mate-em-up too.
Do this enough and you can raise a pack of followers and when your first animal dies out, you can take over the second generation descendent and so on.
I skipped over the herbivore class of animals – initially you can play as a Sika deer. They definitely require a different style of game play. The good news is they don't have to kill – they can graze on plant life. The problem is they are all but defenceless. It is vital to move from patches of long grass, to behind cars – from cover to cover to avoid any predator seeing you. Certain death results from any skirmish.
And that's the game. The graphics are far more PS2 than PS3 – ok but not remotely impressive. For some reason, in the story mode, you are meant to find USB sticks containing info about what happened to mankind and their disappearance (how very useful for animals).
But it's very, very warped. This game will either horrify you or give you the most guttural belly-laugh you've ever had from a video game. I laughed initially when I first saw it on display at Eurogamer. I was impressed that Sony had the courage to release it. But play it for a while – hunt down and kill a baby chick, or play as a deer and hear the sound it makes as you die… Nah, this isn't for me.
But, again, I do genuinely respect the fact that Sony did have the courage to release a game that is so radically different from anything else you will have ever played. The fact that it is shocking and unusual isn't quite enough though – I certainly don't love it.
7/10 then – try it if you want, but don't say you weren't warned. This game is for strong-stomached adults only.
Sweet dreams all!
Tokyo Jungle is out now to download on Playstation Network

High-Risk Lung Cancer Criteria Questioned
February 1, 2013 2:25 pm | by Crystal Phend | CommentsHigh-risk criteria in lung cancer haven't been picking out truly higher-risk patients and instead may be unnecessarily keeping some from more complete resection, a study suggested. There was no difference in surgical complications, mortality, and final pathology between patients who met the major criteria -- lung function or diffusion capacity half of normal or worse -- to be considered "high risk" and those who didn't.
Spine Surgery Safety Not Seasonal
February 1, 2013 9:14 am | by Kathleen Struck | CommentsThe storied "July effect" that new residents and fellows have on patient outcomes in teaching hospitals is negligible in spinal surgery patients, researchers found.

"When you start to stack up very innovative solutions, either as designs or as processes, any one of these is OK," Mann said. "But when you start to build an aircraft entirely out of very innovative approaches to problems, you start to think, do you really want to allow the oversight agency to hurry along the certification process?"
Boeing's influence in Washington partly stems from its position as one of the nation's largest manufacturers, with a workforce topping 150,000. As a larger defense contractor, its fortunes trickle down to myriad other companies and industries that supply parts.
Boeing spent $11.8 million on lobbying last year and $3 million during the latest election, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. Boeing competitor Lockheed Martin came in second place, among big aerospace firms, spending $11.5 million on lobbying, according to the center.
Obama tapped Boeing CEO James McNerney to chair the President's Export Council in March 2010.
McNerney has sought to calm fears about the Dreamliner. On Wednesday, McNerney said in a statement that he is "confident the 787 is safe and we stand behind its overall integrity."
Calls and e-mails made to Boeing seeking comment for this story were not returned. The FAA had no immediate comment on the story.ok
