Government Argues Bradley Manning Was An Anarchist, As Case Closes
from the the-lies-your-government-spreads deptWe haven't been covering the day to day of the Bradley Manning trial, though it has been interesting (and frustrating) to follow. However, in its closing argument, it appears that the government is trying to smear Bradley Manning and his whistleblowing every possible way:
After more than four and a half hours of proceedings, the government wrapped up its closing argument in the trial of Pfc. Bradley Manning, the soldier being prosecuted for disclosing information to WikiLeaks. Prosecutors called him an "anarchist," a "hacker," and a "traitor" before the argument was over.Really? All three claims are flat out ridiculous. From the very beginning Manning was quite clear in his motives, which were about making sure the American public was better informed. The bogus traitor claims have been mentioned before, and seem to have no basis in reality. But the anarchy one is a new one. As Kevin Gosztola explains:
Quoting chat logs between hacker and government informant Adrian Lamo and Manning, Major Ashden Fein said that he expected "worldwide anarchy" would occur after releasing the diplomatic cables and these were not the "words of a humanist but the words of an anarchist." He also said he was a "hacker" and not a humanist.Of course, if you read the actual chat logs and put the statement back in context you realize it's not the words of an anarchist at all. That's just some boasting about how releasing these files will have a major impact. But, as he immediately explains in the following statements, his goal is to create change and stop the US government from lying. He notes that releasing these documents "might actually change something" in how the US goes about its business. He's not talking about anarchy, he's talking about actually having a representative government that doesn't lie and deceive all the time.
Of course, the big claim that the government is trying to make is that Manning knowingly "aided the enemy":
For the "aiding the enemy" charge, which if convicted could lead to maximum sentence of life in prison, Fein argued that Manning had deliberately transmitted the "Collateral Murder" video, certain State Department information and military incident reports from Iraq and Afghanistan.But how is revealing factual information about the US military screwing up and then trying to cover it up "aiding the enemy." It seems like, once again, that's only true if "the enemy" is the American public and you have information you want to hide from them. In fact, the government appears to argue that any release of information to the public can be seen as "aiding the enemy"
"The public included the enemy and he knew that as an intelligence analyst," the government stated. The government added that this was not public data. It was US government information that Manning was trained to use.But, under that argument any journalist or any person who publishes anything that might make Al Qaeda happy is "aiding the enemy." That's crazy.
Manning's defense will give its closing argument on Friday, and then... we wait for the judge to decide.

In Eastern Europe and Central Asia, the prevalence of HIV continues to rise. And although injection drug use (IDU) remains a leading risk factor, transmission via heterosexual sex is increasing. While commercial sex work plays a central role globally in the heterosexual transmission of HIV and STI, little is known about female sex workers (FSWs) in this region.
The authors of the current study evaluated STI and HIV prevalence among FSWs in Moscow and potential risk factors, including IDU, sexual risks, and violence victimization. During an eight-month period in 2005, 147 Moscow FSWs completed a clinic-based survey and were tested for STI and HIV.
The results indicated that HIV prevalence was 4.8 percent, and 31.3 percent of the women were infected with at least one STI including HIV. Sexual behaviors found to be significantly associated with STI/HIV included anal sex (adjusted odds ratio 3.48), high volume of clients (AOR 2.71 for three or more clients daily), recent "subbotnik" (sex demanded by police, AOR 2.50), and regularly being presented with more clients than was originally agreed to (AOR 2.45).
Also associated with STI/HIV were past-year experiences of physical violence from clients (AOR 3.14) and threats of violence by pimps (AOR 3.65). "IDU was not significantly associated with STI/HIV," the researchers reported. "Anal sex and high client volume partially mediated the associations of abuse with STI/HIV."
"Findings illustrate substantial potential for heterosexual STI/HIV transmission in a setting better known for IDU-related risk," the authors concluded. "Many of the STI/HIV risks observed are not modifiable by FSWs alone. STI/HIV prevention efforts for this vulnerable population will benefit from reducing coercion and abuse perpetrated by pimps and clients."

The NCUA approved 23 mergers in July in 18 states, bringing the total number of approved mergers to 155 for 2013.
Four of July's mergers occurred in California and all but one of the credit unions had assets of less than $50 million, according to NCUA's monthly Insurance Activity Report posted in late August on the regulator's website.
Sixteen of the small credit unions merged with larger counterparts to expand services to members, while only one merged because it was in poor financial condition and two consolidated due to the "inability to obtain officials" or were unable to find a new CEO, according to the NCUA report. One credit union merged because it lost its sponsor, one consolidated due to a loss or declining membership, one merged because of lack of growth and one consolidated with a state-chartered credit union.
The $7.3 million Delta Wye Federal Credit Union in Dorchester, Mass., which merged citing poor financial condition, posted a net worth of only 2.60% in 2012 and 3.06% on June 30, according to NCUA financial performance reports. The credit union, which was chartered in 1961 by the Electrical Workers Local 103 and served 1,789 members, consolidated with the $85.6 million River Works Credit Union in Lynn, Mass.
One of the smallest credit unions to merge was the $1.4 million Angelus Can Employees Federal Credit Union in Los Angeles, after its corporate sponsor shut down the Pneumatic Scale Angelus plant in November 2012, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The credit union served only 226 members when it consolidated with the $407 million Vons Employees Federal Credit Union in El Monte, Calif.
Another very small credit union, the $2.8 million Harper & Row, Keystone Employees Federal Credit Union in Throop, Pa., merged because it was seeing its membership dwindle for more than 10 years. In December 2002, the credit union was serving 1,282 members. By June 30 of this year, it had only 832 members, according to Callahan & Associates.
Other mergers of note included the $56 million Security One Federal Credit Union in Arlington, Texas into then $763 million Texas Trust Credit Union in Mansfield, Texas; the $42 million Carepoint Federal Credit Union in Anaheim, Calif., into the $807 million Financial Partners Credit Union in Downey, Calif.; the $40.6 million NEO Federal Credit Union in Miami, Okla., into the $1.3 billion TTCU Credit Union in Tulsa, Okla., the $31 million Fort Bragg Community Federal Credit Union in Fort Bragg, Calif., into the $135 million Mendo Lake Credit Union in Ukiah, Calif.; and the $20 million Kilowatt Credit Union of Madison, Wis., into the $195 million Heartland Credit Union in Madison, Wis.

*Current Fragrance: Back to Black from By Kilian
*Currently Listening: White Christmas sung by Frank Sinatra
Oh the Office/Workplace Holiday Party... Yep, it's that time of year again! Forget visions of Sugar Plums dancing in your head (that's an UPCOMING blog post), and belly up to the possibilities of your boss with a lamp shade on his/her head, the know-it-all that got YOUR promotion losing her eggnog, or finding yourself under the mistletoe with that cute guy from several cubicles over.
I've been to my share of lame holiday work parties, but then again I've been to my share that are flat out fabulously fun. There's so much you CAN'T control, you should relish in what you CAN control: looking and smelling fab! I'm here to help you with the smelling part. :-) As for the looking, just click my heels and your mouse on over to my lovely collaborator on this project, The Boston Fashionista. (As I'm collaborating with another Boston Blogger, I've taken special care to list fragrances that Bostonians can walk into a store and sniff TODAY!)
Not all office parties are created equal (in mood level of awesome/lame), just as not all perfume wearers needs are created equal: so, I tried to pick three vibes that I think encapsulate how wearers would want to feel or portray themselves at these Holiday parties.
1) Get Rid of the Grinch - Perhaps your work environment is a bit on the aggressive side. No one wants to carry that into a party environment. If I were faced with a situation like that, I'd reach for a bottle of an emotional bolstering. I think something like By Kilian's Love would be perfect. Love is a cozy, sugar dipped orange blossom that doesn't go TOO zesty or TOO cloyingly sweet. Think of the imaginary olfactory nexus of where a pomander ball and Dewdrop's (from the Nutcracker) costume. This is working under the assumption that Dewdrop's costume is made entirely of sugar cubes and orange blossom flowers..... Love from By Kilian can be found at Saks 5th Avenue, and you can read my review here.
2) I'm Not Myself Tonight - It might be something as finding yourself under the mistletoe with that cute guy from several cubicles over, or as broad as just being "someone else" for the evening. One listen of the X-tina song by the same name...girl don't wait, take the mistletoe to HIM! Anyway...so you want to vamp it up a bit, please vamp it up to the amount that you'll still have a J-O-B come Monday morning. I suggest on enlisting a little help Material Mother Madge and spritz on some of her Truth or Dare. Truth or Dare is a vampy tuberose with a tender edge. (Remember - you want to KEEP your job, as well as Monday morning under-the-breath-jokes to a minimum!) Truth or Dare is JUST gourmand-y enough to encapsulate the holiday vibe, while still letting you be a little vampish. It struts the perfect line between naughty and nice! (Gotta have all those bases covered!) Madonna's Truth or Dare can be found at Macy's, and you can read my review here.
3) Pass The Stapler and The Sparkling Cider In The Plastic Flute Please - Sometimes it just happens (although it makes my supremely sad), your workplace chooses/has to celebrate IN the office...DURING the work day. I'm also going to guess that this is an office where scent isn't necessarily celebrated. Don't worry Cindy Loo! We won't let them stop your holiday office party sniffy merriment from coming, we just need to be more mindful! Enter Jo Malone's Blackberry and Bay. Jo Malone's fragrances are notoriously on the lighter-handed side, so they're PERFECT for this type of shindig. Blackberry and Bay take very ripe photorealistic blackberries and both tamps down any excessive sweetness and gives a slightly spicy twist with the bay. Perhaps not your everyday scent, but PERFECT to kick it up a notch for that 9-5 holiday party. Jo Malone's Blackberry and Bay can be found at Saks 5th Avenue and Neiman Marcus, and you can read my review here.
I hope you enjoyed this little Office/Work Holiday Party Fragrance guide and find it useful! What fragrances have you enjoyed or had success with at your holiday work parties? I'd love to hear all about it in the comments!!! Now, click on over to The Boston Fashionista to read her post!

East Lyme High graduates told to remain curious, keep exploring what's new
East Lyme — In a ceremony of cheer and gratitude, East Lyme High School graduates listened to advice to embrace their diverse interests and continue exploring.
"Class of 2013: You are all Renaissance men and women," said valedictorian Charley Ren. "It's hardly a bad thing, in fact it means that you are all explorers, that you approach new things with curiosity and hardly ever walk away from something without having learned something new."
Principal Michael Susi lauded the graduates, who accepted their diplomas in maroon caps and gowns among family and friends on the high school athletic field Thursday.
"The Class of 2013 is a class of respectful, caring, hard-working and compassionate students," he said.
In the senior laureate address, graduate Laura Kastner highlighted the graduates' sense of community, evidenced through kind deeds, such as leaving notes signed "someone who cares" in other students' backpacks.
"We are compassionate, and we are exceptional, and we owe it to the place that raised us to remain that way," she said.
Salutatorian Jacob Wang advised graduates to embrace failure as a part of life so they can "start living with clarity and consciousness."
Superintendent James Lombardo urged students to listen to their hearts: "And when you hear that call, the call to do something important, pay attention. Don't ignore it. That sound may very well be your clarion call."
Class President Piper Hays reflected on the bittersweetness of knowing that although she felt proud during the school's sports games and drama productions, she knew her classmates would one day have to bid farewell to each other.
But she recalled wisdom from her childhood favorite, Winnie the Pooh: "How lucky we are to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
"Remember this," she told her fellow graduates, "and cherish those loved ones around you, as they're the ones who have shaped you into the young adults that you are today."

The official publication date for Lean In is still a day off, but as the Sheryl Sandberg tsunami approaches landfall, its historic scope and impact are readily apparent.
Like any self-respecting treatise in the Internet age, Sandberg's opus—currently #1 on Amazon.com—has spawned wave upon wave of impassioned commentary, crashing ashore in predictable stages. First comes the announcement, then the critique, then the backlash against the critique, then the meta conversation about the conversation. (For the record—and likely due to time constraints and a problematic Facebook habit–my own contributions tend to come towards the end of this cycle.)
My initial plan to track Superstorm Sheryl quickly fell by the wayside—there was simply too much coming in too fast for me to absorb (at least absent a decision to lean out of my full-time job). That said, I've been paying attention and reading quite a bit. And more and more, I find myself stuck on a single question: Why aren't we just taking what we can use and forgetting about the rest?
A somewhat baffled Paul Krugman seemed to say as much this morning on ABC's This Week: Of course, Sandberg's prescription is not for everyone. It seems to be quite helpful for some. What is the big deal?
So what is the big deal? (Because, clearly, there is one.)
The more I think about it, the more I suspect that some of the debate's ferocity stems from an atavistic faith in the myth of the Right Answer. Many of us, me included, grew up in an era where female ambition often found its outlet in efforts to be the Good Girl, to fulfill goals set by others, not to define our own. The successful Good Girl's stock in trade was her ready store of right answers. Not right for her, but right period. She cultivated excellent listening skills and became a world-class mimic. In return, she got gold stars and As. She did not get raped or killed.
Put differently, perhaps one of the reasons we care so desperately about what Sandberg thinks is because we are aren't entirely clear what we think ourselves. We latch on to her ideas—or, alternately, lash out against them—because we don't see (or aren't comfortable with) other more nuanced options. This shouldn't be surprising. We live in an age when the competing voices are loud and many—and often far outstrip our capacity to choose among them or shape our own course. (Intriguingly, even Sandberg herself sounds familiar with the dilemma: "Every woman I know feels guilty about the choices they've made," she told 60 Minutes this evening.) We are, in the words of Harvard's Robert Kegan–who put forth this theory in a book of the same name–"in over our heads." (N.B. This is a problem not just for women but for pretty much everyone. Another place it's especially visible–and anxiety-provoking–is, as I wrote here, around career choices in the aftermath of the Great Recession.)
But there's another reason that it's a big deal, and it's an important one: The danger that a vision intended to inspire could become an oppressive cudgel. The danger that women already struggling–and they are infinitely more numerous than Sandberg and her black swan peers–will be told that, if they'd just lean in more, Presto!, problems solved. Not that anyone's likely to say this in so many words, or that it's what Sandberg intended. But these things have a way of seeping in. The process is gradual. That Sandberg and other uber achievers have become the most visible faces of women's workplace issues is, as Carolyn Edgar compellingly writes, both absurd and disturbing.
Late last month, the ever-thoughtful Kate Gace Walton, who runs the blog Work Stew, mused that Sandberg's choices would never be her own. "For me personally, a book that would resonate more might be called 'Lean In, Gasp with Horror, and Run the Other Way,'" she quipped. At the same time, she took the opportunity to take the conversation deeper—to ask friends and readers how they'd responded, what was true for them: "What path makes sense for you, and what changes (in yourself, and in society) need to happen to make that possible?" she wrote on Facebook.
This is another kind of leaning in that I think we could use more of—a leaning into our own lives, to our own values and needs. How do we decide whose advice to follow? Where do we look for guidance? Here, Sheryl Sandberg is beside the point. We can only look to ourselves.

Prosecutor says DNA found on blanket is key to trial in teen's 1974 Iowa farmhouse murder
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
OTTUMWA, Iowa – Decades after a teenage girl was beaten and shot to death in a rural Iowa farmhouse, DNA testing on a blanket provided the evidence that investigators needed to finally charge a man who had been the prime suspect all along, a prosecutor told jurors Wednesday.
Assistant Attorney General Denise Timmins laid out the prosecution's first-degree murder case against Robert "Gene" Pilcher in the April 9, 1974, slaying of 17-year-old Mary Jayne Jones outside of Ottumwa.
But Pilcher's attorney, Allen Cook, told jurors in his opening statement that his client was not responsible for the teenager's death and that the semen from Pilcher came from a sexual encounter days before her death. He said some semen found on the blanket came from someone who still has not been identified.
"I think, generally, the defense theory would be that Mary Jayne Jones got involved with somebody that she didn't know was dangerous, somebody she trusted, and she paid the ultimate price," Cook said. "Undeserving as it is, that's what we believe."
Jones, an outgoing drive-in restaurant employee who had moved to Iowa from North Carolina to live with her sister in 1973, was beaten with a gun then shot with a rifle, once in the head and once in the heart, Timmins said. Investigators suspected Pilcher because he had access to the house, which was owned by his cousin, and Pilcher had been accused of sexually assaulting another woman in the same bedroom four days before the slaying, the prosecutor added.
Pilcher, then 27, was also a regular customer at Henry's Drive-in, had asked the teenager out on dates when she served him and was rebuffed repeatedly, she said. But she said Pilcher wasn't charged because investigators could not find "a direct link" to the crime scene.
That changed, she said, after a cold case unit with the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation started to re-examine the case in 2010. She said a DNA specialist at a state crime laboratory in 2012 conducted testing on a semen-stained blanket on which the teenager's naked, bloody body was found 38 years earlier.
Most of the semen came from the cousin, whose bedroom it was and who was in California at the time of the slaying. But Timmins said three stains — two on the side of the bed and one stain found directly under the Mary Jayne's crotch — "were found to be a match to the defendant."
"The state has now found a direct link to the crime scene, the evidence that puts the defendant there," she said in a courtroom at the Wapello County Courthouse in Ottumwa, as several of Mary Jayne's relatives watched.
But Cook, the defense attorney, told jurors that Pilcher left his semen on the blanket during a sexual encounter in the bedroom with another woman four days before the killing. He said investigators were aware of that encounter in 1974, which led to a sodomy charge against Pilcher that was eventually dismissed by the Iowa Supreme Court.
None of Pilcher's DNA was found on Mary Jayne, and DNA from a third individual was also found on the blanket, he noted.
After getting the DNA match to Pilcher, investigators interviewed him at a Des Moines homeless shelter where he was living and questioned his associates. A former girlfriend told investigators that Pilcher had once bragged about having "offed someone" years ago in the Ottumwa area, Timmins said. The woman, Kim Armstrong, is expected to testify during the trial, which is expected to last into next week.
Pilcher also sent his wallet and money to a brother-in-law after saying vaguely he might have to go away for bad acts from his past, Timmins said. Pilcher was arrested in November 2012 and has been jailed since then.
Pilcher, now 67, faces a mandatory life sentence if convicted.

Save The Bay to host the 37th Annual Bay Swim this Saturday. More than 400 swimmers from across the country, joined by up to 200 kayakers, will take part in the 1.7-nautical mile course off the Eastern shore of Conanicut Island in the East Passage of Narragansett Bay.
Additional swimmers will participate remotely, swimming in open waters or pools as far away as Rome, Italy. U.S. Congressman David Cicilline, Providence Mayor Angel Taveras and other elected officials will also be in attendance at the completion party to congratulate swimmers.
For 36 years, the Swim's course was across the East Passage, from Naval Station Newport to Jamestown. This year's Swim course has been altered due to federal sequestration. The "Sequestration Swim" will start and finish in Jamestown, yet will allow opportunities to capture images and interviews from swimmers both before and after the event.
The public is encouraged to join swimmers, volunteers and Save The Bay staff at the completion party from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. immediately following the Swim. The party will take place across the street from the finish line at Potter Cove on the lawn of the Rhode Island Turnpike & Bridge Authority.
Save The Bay's Annual Bay Swim is a Rhode Island tradition and the largest open-water swim in the Northeast region. It brings together some 2,000 people – ranging in age from 15 to 83 – to raise awareness around the continued need to protect and restore Narragansett Bay.

This is becoming a habit, posting something after a workout. But here I am.
For those non-Uechi readers, palm strike is one of our common Uechi Ryu techniques. Our three main katas do not have punches, but plenty of palms.
I know that various people have various opinions, mine are based on my bad boys days doing my thing in Boston's Combat Zone and elsewhere.
Oops, I should say this first: Don't get into a fight if it is not absolutely necessary. Avoidance, back off, let it go, give him what he wants, be the gentleman that you are, but if all else fails and he is about to attack, then here it goes-----
Before I go any further, let me repeat here that kata techniques do not have to be executed exactly as in the katas during a real self defense situation.
Let me repeat here also that unless one practices the techniques specifically selected beforehand for use in a real street type situation and practice them repeatedly, probably no effective techniques will out during a crisis. Of course I am referring to us normal folks here and excluded those guys who fight all the time because they are so used to it.
The hundred fancy techniques and thirty katas are great for demonstrations but will just be useless during a real street-type situation due to the infamous chemical-cocktails unless you select a few and practice them for that purpose. The fancy concepts and textbook theories won't do anyone any good during a street-type situation. The fancy kata movements won't miraculously jump out to save anyone's whatever, unless--- (read on).
If you haven't done it yet, don't worry. Do it asap. Pick may be three or four at most, techniques that you feel are most comfortable with; the safest to use; the most effective in "most" self defense situations without the need for much accuracy whatsoever, then select the one that you can execute most devastatingly during a sudden attack to concentrate on. Now you have something you can use as your "primary carry" so to speak. Practice it repeatedly until it can come out without thinking during an attack by the bad guy.
As I inferred, there is no one technique that can counter effectively against all sudden attacks. Therefore you need to consider what are some of the most common sudden attacks and concentrate on the one attack that is most widely used by street thugs. Practicing too many defenses against too many different attacks will again, confuse you during the "chemical cocktail" and you will most likely be a sitting duck.
Nothing wrong with practicing defenses against numerous different attacks though-- but you need a "primary carry". One that would be most effective against an attack from most attackers. Of course you should also practice several other techniques against different type of attacks in case that bad guy tries to be fancy. I would say practice one for a right sucker punch (the most common), one for a left sucker punch, one for a takedown and one for a kick.
And to the naysayers who spout that one should not come up with Defense-A against Attack-B, I generally agree with you but this is not what I am talking about here. I do not rely on using different defense against different attacks anyway simply because I just can't remember even the most simple things. What? A knife attack and you do this then grab that and do a wrist lock and tap him on his nerve point and ----, wut? Fugetaboutit!
OK, so my first immediate defense movement is a palm strike. Yours can be anything you like as long as it meets the conditions I mentioned above.
Before I forget, never stop with just one counter strike. Do at least three continuously, then more if needed or if possible. Stop when he is down or give up or you will risk legal consequences that are designed to protect everyone but you.
Coincidently, GEM's December Newsletter also mentioned the three movements concept: https://vimeo.com/80546734 (Password is: space0202. Is it OK to give out the pw?)
So, just for information or use it as my suggestion anyway, my sequence of movements against a sudden attack (say a right sucker punch):
1. Step forward with a left block toward his sucker punch and simultaneously blast a palm strike (with the lower palm area) at his nose (straight on if he is about your height, if he is much taller, no mercy here because big guys aren't supposed to attack little harmless guys like us so, blast the palm strike upward at an angle from the bottom of his nose).
2. Follow up with a left palm strike to his right ear area (less chances of missing his entire head if aiming for his temple), anywhere in the ear area would be good.
3. Then follow up with an elbow to his chest area if he is a tall guy. Elbow his neck if he is about your height.
4. Then blast an upper cut to his liver. From this point on, knee butt, groin strike, whatever-----
Of course you will need to practice the movements repeatedly to get into the muscle memory. Can't do them with a real person or a heavy bag though so, good old Bob again. Alternate the height at 5"-10" and 6'-3" and blast away.
I assume we all know that punching someone's head with your fist is a no no, right? Unless you are wearing gloves. (I learned the hard way as mentioned in one of my old posts).
If there are questions on the effectiveness of palm strikes, look up some of the old Pancrase fights before folks started wearing gloves in MMA matches. Here is a sample of Bas Ruten using the palm strike in some of his fights. There are plenty more:

We both love Chipolte, Cilantros, and Pancheros (both similar to Chipolte) but eating out adds up and we don't have the money to do that very often so I make as much as I can at home and call it "Take-out At Home". When we do eat out at one of the places listed above we both tend to go for the vegetarian option – I always get a bowl because it is gluten-free (the corn tacos are as well, but I like the bowl better) and Bryan goes back and forth between a bowl and a burrito. We are not vegetarians, although we do try to eat several meals a week that are vegetarian, but we always order the vegetarian option at these places. Why? Because you get free guacamole (except for Pancheros)! Go ahead and laugh but I would rather save the extra $1.00 – $1.50 and get the guac instead of meat. It's a much healthier fat anyway.
These are so simple to make at home and cost way less money! Below is a simple, quick, and delicious way to prepare the vegetarian bowls at home. This is also a great recipe for those on a budget because it utilizes what you have in your freezer and cupboards! You can however feel free to use non-instant brown rice, or dried beans (soaked, and cooked), and fresh corn on the cob (if in season).
Vegetarian Burrito Bowls (Serves 2)
- Brown Rice, boil-in-the-bag 1 bag
- Cooking Spray As needed
- Corn, frozen – defrosted 1 cup
- Black beans, canned, no salt added 1 can
- Cumin, ground 1/2 teaspoon
- Cayenne Pepper, ground 1/2 teaspoon
- Lime, juice and zest 1 zested then sliced into wedges
- Avocado 1 pit removed, and flesh scooped out
- Cilantro 2 tablespoons chopped
- Salsa 1/2 cup, divided
- Lettuce, mixed greens 1/2 cup, divided
- Cheese, shredded 1/2 cup, divided
Method of Preparation:
In a medium sauce pan bring 4 cups of water to a boil and add the brown rice (boil-in-a-bag) and cook on medium high heat for 10 minutes. Once cooked, remove from water and drain slightly over the sink. Divide evenly between the two bowls.
Lightly spray a small sautee pan and heat over medium-high heat. Add corn and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. You are looking for a nice roasted color on the corn, you may need a little more or little less time depending on your stove. Be careful not to burn them.
In a small sauce pan add the canned beans (no salt added or low sodium is best). Add the cumin, cayenne pepper, a pinch of lime zest (1/4 teaspoon), and the juice of 1/4 of the lime. Cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes.
In a small bowl add the flesh of the avocado and mash it up with 1/8 teaspoon cumin, and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Squeeze 1/4 of the lime into the bowl and mix well. Set aside.
Add the remaining 1/2 of the lime juice, cilantro and lime zest evenly into the bowls with rice and mix well.
Top the rice with roasted corn, black beans, guacamole, lettuce, and shredded cheese. Serve with additional lime wedges if desired. Also great served with tortilla chips.

Roast chicken with apples
Serves 4
Apples lend a hint of sweetness to a traditional roast chicken and paired with rosemary and thyme, the fruit becomes savory. Roast chicken is quintessential comfort food. It's also economical and easy. A whole chicken is less expensive than parts and if you have 15 minutes to prep the bird, you can have dinner on the table in a little over an hour. This bird cooks in a hot oven surrounded by apples, carrots, and onions tossed with fresh herbs. The chicken is intentionally large. On another night, add shredded meat to pasta or wrap it in a whole-wheat tortilla with lettuce and tomatoes. To stretch the meal even further, simmer the carcass with more onions and carrots to make homemade stock.
|tart apples, cored and quartered
|carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
|medium onions, quartered
|sprigs fresh rosemary
|sprigs fresh thyme
|Salt and pepper, to taste
|tablespoons olive oil
|whole chicken (4 to 5 pounds)
1. Set the oven at 425 degrees. In a large roasting pan, place apples, carrots, and onions.
2. Remove the leaves from 4 sprigs of rosemary and 4 of thyme and roughly chop. Add all but 1 tablespoon of the chopped rosemary and thyme to the apple mixture. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss well; move the mixture to the edges of the pan.
3. Remove giblets from chicken and pat chicken dry with paper towels. At the neck end, gently pull the skin away from the flesh to create a pocket. Insert 4 sprigs each of rosemary and thyme, pushing the herbs well down into the breast.
4. Place chicken in the center of the roasting pan, breast up. Insert a few pieces of apple and onion inside the cavity of the bird. Generously season the cavity with salt and pepper. Rub the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil on the chicken. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon chopped herbs.
5. Roast the chicken for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 170 degrees. Remove the bird from the roasting pan and set in a warm place for 10 minutes. Return the vegetables to the oven. Continue cooking for 10 minutes while the bird rests.
6. Carve the breast meat off the bird. Cut off the whole legs, then separate the legs from the thighs. Carve the meat off the thighs.

Mass Effect Trilogy
Everyone loved Mass Effect. Well... they did until the ending of part 3. That notwithstanding, it remains one of the finest trilogies in existence, and often raises the response of 'Oh, I still need to play that' when a conversation strikes up about how people's own personal journeys came together. Furthermore, given how much replayability it has - the ending of Mass Effect 2 alone can be toyed around with to an insane degree - we'd imagine even those that have finished it would fancy going through it again.
After all, what else is there to play on the Xbox One and PS4?*
Skyrim is a magnificent achievement. A world that big, and packed with that much content is a revelation on current-gen machines. It stands to reason, then, that on consoles with more powerful hardware it'd be absolutely outstanding. Such the move would also tidy up some of the performance issues it did struggle with, offering the most complete version out there. We imagine visually it'd look ridiculous as well.
Much like Mass Effect, the sheer size of Skyrim would ensure that both new and old players alike would probably be enticed by it. Even if you've done the main quest, there's quite literally hundreds of other things to lose yourself in.
Crysis Trilogy
So, yeah... Crysis is a little boring. And never forget: 'Be The Weapon'. Putting those things aside, it does have one major thing going for it, namely, that it has always looked phenomenal. Crytek has become the kings of visuals, seemingly putting that before anything else, so remastering this trilogy would give graphic-whores the world over something to really kick up a fuss about.
Remember that there are already a pretty badass PC version already doing the rounds and surely it'd be an easy job for the developer, too. Unless they're still sticking to that whole 'free-to-play only' nonsense they spouted a while ago...
The Witcher 2
There's a lot of fuss about The Witcher 3, so there's a lot of stock in turning back the clock and trying to give its prequel another day in the sun. As good as the CDProjektRed's original sequel is, if you decide to play it on 360 over PC... well you could be insane. Therein lies the genius in getting it onto the Xbox One and PS4, though. It takes a very good game, builds hype for the third, and finally gives console players the chance to experience it in the right way.
So just do it.
Far Cry 3
'I didn't play Far Cry 3 because of all the hoopla about it eventually coming to next-gen consoles' said VideoGamer.com's own Tom Orry. He's not the only one either. When the internet started shouting that Ubisoft had something big up its sleeve in regards to its open world shooter - or that it may come to Microsoft's and Sony's new babies - some people held off. Now, that seems like a rather daft decision (it doesn't look likely anymore...), but if the French-based publisher were to spring it on us now, a whole new audience may descend on the franchise.
Is it happening? Isn't it happening? Will it even come to PC? No one knows the answer. We all assume we do, but until Rockstar says so there's nothing to go on but hearsay and rumour. After All, the original noise stated it was going to make its way to next-gen consoles in March. Don't bet on that anytime soon...
If it does eventually come to pass, however, it'll probably be one of the biggest games to hit the Xbox One and PS4 despite coming out last September on the 360 and PS3. GTA 5's sales figures remain ridiculous. A dolled-up version will only make the adoring audience all the more ravenous for it.
State of Decay
If you watch our stupid video content, you'll know we've spent a good deal of time trying to convince you that although State of Decay looked pretty rough, there's a cracking survival game buried underneath. The original version on the Xbox 360 has seen a number of hefty patches that fixed the real glaring issues, including the possibility that your console would implode if you bumped into too many zombies, and the later release on PC is a much better game all round. But wouldn't it would be nice to see the game done justice on a technical front?
It's unlikely that we'll see such a remake, as Undead Labs' immediate future lies with the Zombie MMO they've been dreaming of since the beginning, but a prettier, more robust State of Decay easily makes its way onto our list.
Fallout 3
Falling in line with Skyrim, Fallout 3 - or New Vegas - would excel on next-gen formats because of the tidying up process it can go through. While the technical issues didn't do much to take away from the overall power of the game, it's been long enough that an 'ultimate' version would tickle many people's interest.
Given that Fallout 4 may be imminent the chances of this happening are arguably slim, but if the internet has taught us anything it's that if you shout and moan enough, you'll probably get your way. Even if you shouldnt.
Resident Evil
The best version of one of the best games ever, Resi Remake has one fatal flaw: its beautiful (for the time) pre-rendered backgrounds were made for resolutions that now make it look terrible when being played on any television that can be carried by just one person.
So now we're going to have to get Capcom to make Resident Evil Remake Remake. Or REMake HD. Or Super Resident Evil HD Remix. Or something. What we're trying to say is that if Capcom can make seventy-two versions of Street Fighter IV, it can spend the time restoring this classic to its former glory.
Aliens: Colonial Marines
Because if they get another chance, maybe Gearbox will actually get it right this time...

4 who spotted kidnap victim honored by police
BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Idaho State Police are honoring the people who first spotted a teenage kidnapping victim and her captor in an Idaho forest last summer.
The four residents of the community of Sweet are being recognized for their help in the rescue of Hannah Anderson, of California.
Former Gem County Sheriff Mark John, his wife, Christa, and Mike and Mary Young were horseback riding in Idaho's Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness when they encountered Anderson and 40-year-old James DiMaggio. They later saw the pair on TV in connection with an Amber Alert, and called police.
DiMaggio was the focus of a massive manhunt for allegedly abducting the 16-year-old and killing her brother and mother at DiMaggio's home about 65 miles east of San Diego.
DiMaggio died in an August shootout with FBI agents who rescued Anderson in the wilderness.

Pickup Crashes Onto Western Pa. Pond; 3 Men Killed
MARION CENTER, Pa. (AP) – Three men were killed when a pickup plunged into a small pond in western Pennsylvania and overturned, trapping them inside, authorities said.
Emergency crews in Indiana County were called to South Mahoning Township just before 12:30 a.m. Sunday, officials said.
State police said the three had gone to the location on private property to meet friends at about 10 p.m. Saturday and remained there for a short time before leaving.
But, police at the Indiana barracks said, they returned in the pickup and were heading up the dirt access road to the property but continued traveling straight toward an incline that contained the pond, and the vehicle crested the incline and plunged into the pond.
Police said once in the water, the vehicle "for unknown reasons" rolled onto its roof, trapping the men in the cab while under water. Several friends rushed to the pond to try to help but were unable to rescue the victims.
Volunteer firefighters from Plumville recovered the bodies of the men, who were pronounced dead shortly before 2 a.m. Sunday.
Chief Deputy Coroner Jerry Overman identified them as 20-year-old Sean Titus, 19- year- old Zane McMillen and 18-year- old Cody Douglas, all of Kittanning.
State police say the investigation into the crash continues, and the coroner said toxicology tests are planned to determine whether alcohol was a factor.

On the third day of the 2009 Sea Otter Classic, we dug around and found that Specialized and Rocky Mountain have turned up the full-suspension 29er heat for 2010, while DT Swiss has expanded its carbon wheel offerings. French outfit Commencal celebrates the Atherton family's twin world championships with the Supreme DH WCS frame, while our keen-eyed tech editor James Huang spotted the as-yet-unreleased SRAM XX hydraulic disc brakes.
Here's his report from the pits of the Laguna Seca Raceway, a scorching Saturday in Monterey, California.
Specialized delve deeper into 29" wheels with carbon hardtail and Epic models
Specialized dipped their feet into the 29er pool with a handful of mid-range models and now jumps in headfirst with two additional high-end offerings: an S-Works carbon hardtail and an aluminium Epic Marathon.
The new 100mm-travel Epic Marathon 29er offers the same performance advantages of the 26" aluminium version – such as the inertia valve-equipped FlowControl Mini Brain rear shock, four-bar FSR rear suspension design, and lightened M5 manipulated aluminium tubing – but with adjusted geometry to accommodate the bigger wheels. Chain stay length is reasonably short and the head tube angle is steepened by about one degree to maintain reasonably speedy handling.
Specialized have also maintained the standard version's tapered steerer and head tube design by melding their existing FACT carbon fiber crown and steerer assembly to an otherwise-standard 100mm-travel RockShox Reba 29. According to Specialized, the hybrid creation yields additional stiffness and steering precision – crucial given the longer legs' extra leverage relative to the 26" version – but also lightens things up to the tune of about 100g.
Target weight for the complete Epic Marathon 29 will be around 11.3kg (25.0lb).
Likewise, the upcoming S-Works Stumpjumper HT 29 offers all of the performance features of the 26" one with no concessions made to fit the bigger hoops, including the same FACT 10m carbon construction techniques, carbon driveside and forged aluminium non-driveside dropouts, and FACT carbon crankset with integrated bottom bracket bearings.
As on the Epic, the hardtail melds a Specialized FACT carbon upper assembly to RockShox Reba uppers, lowers and internals. However, in keeping with Specialized's other race-oriented hardtails, travel is limited here to a custom 90mm.
Target weight for the complete S-Works Stumpjumper HT 29 is 9.3kg (20.5lb). Specialized also plan to produce a limited run of singlespeed versions, but interested parties may want to act quickly – only 200 or so will be made.
DT Swiss introduce full range of carbon road and mountain bike wheels
DT Swiss have apparently recovered from last year's RR1250 hiccup – the carbon road clinchers were introduced but never actually released – with an impressively complete collection of RRC carbon fiber road wheels for 2010.
DT Swiss will offer 32mm, 46mm and 66mm section depths in both tubular and clincher varieties, all built with the company's Aerolite bladed stainless steel spokes, Pro Lock hexagonal internal nipples, and 240s hubs with road-specific interchangeable alloy freehub bodies. A carbon tubular rear disc with flat sides will be on tap as well.
Maximum pressure on the clincher rims is 140psi and all of the wheels will include SwissStop carbon-specific brake pads and RWS ratcheting skewers with titanium shafts.
Claimed weights for the 32mm, 46mm and 66mm-deep tubulars are 950g, 1000g and 1360g, respectively, all with a US$3240 cost for the pair and measured without skewers. Clinchers are expectedly heavier at 1250g, 1300g and 1650g as well as more expensive at US$3530 for a pair. Claimed weight for the disc is 1055g.
DT Swiss have also expanded the range of carbon mountain bike wheels with the new XRC 1350 and EXC 1550 models. The XRC 1350 is essentially the same wheel as the top-end XRC 1250 – using the same 24mm-wide 300g carbon disc-only clincher rim and Aerolite bladed stainless steel spokes – but uses Center Lock 240s hubs with steel cartridge bearings and standard ratchets instead of the ultra high-zoot 190 hubs' ceramic bearings and more milled-out driver rings.
Standard 9mm quick-release axles are offered for both hubs with options for a 15mm thru-axle up front and 10mm thru-bolt out back.
For all-mountain riders, DT Swiss will offer the EXC 1550 with a 28mm-wide carbon rim weighing just 400g for additional strength and stiffness, plus better support for wider tires. Hubs are based on the six-bolt 240s but with a wider range of fitment options. The front will be compatible with 9mm quick-release and 15mm or 20mm thru-axles while the rear will be offered in 10x135mm thru-bolt or 12x135mm thru-axle. OEM customers may also request the new 12x142mm thru-axle standard currently being promoted by Syntace.
Though it still isn't quite ready for production, DT Swiss also showed off a new set of ratchet rings with 36 teeth instead of the current 18, thus decreasing engagement speed from a languid 20 degrees to a far speedier 10. Testing has been completed but the company is still deciding where to install them as the additional teeth add engagement speed but also friction.
DT Swiss also add a few items to their suspension category. The limited edition XRC 100 Race LTD fork steps things up from the standard XRC 100 fork with a molded carbon fiber crown and steerer that shaves nearly 200g from that already-light figure. Claimed weight is now around 1200g complete with the remote lockout lever, easily making it one of the lightest – if not the lightest – fully featured 100mm fork currently available.
Though the stanchions measure just 28.6mm in diameter, the carbon fiber lowers, beefy hollow carbon reverse arch and reinforcing rib inside the lower section of the steerer tube help to maintain steering precision.
Suggested retail price is US$1550.
At the other end of the scale is the new M 210 rear shock, a price point model intended to bring DT Swiss suspension technology to a wider audience. Pedaling platform comes courtesy of a factory-tuned shim stack and external adjustments will include air pressure, rebound damping and manual lockout.
Air chamber design is borrowed from the now-defunct SSD 210 with its floating chamber wall for a more linear feel and DT Swiss will also include their usual spherical ball joint eyelet hardware.
Weights are competitively light at around 210g for the shorter 165mm size.
Rocky Mountain celebrates 29 years with 29 inches
Rocky Mountain fittingly celebrate their 29th anniversary with a new range of 29" mountain bikes. Sitting at the top of the big-wheeled lineup will be the 2010 Altitude 29 with 120mm of front and rear travel courtesy of Rocky Mountain's new SmoothLink four-bar suspension design.
The frame will be built with a custom FORM29 hydroformed 7005 aluminium tubeset and Rocky Mountain will also include the StraightUp geometry's extra-steep 76-degree seat tube. Up front, a tapered head tube will be ready to accept a tapered 1 1/8"-to-1 1/2" steerer and clearances will be wide enough to accept aggressive 2.3" rubber.
The Vertex 29 hardtail will also be built with FORM29 tubing but is obviously aimed more at racers and pure cross-country riders than the more versatile Altitude 29. A tapered head tube will be included here as well for improved strength and steering precision while Shimano's new Direct Mount front derailleur interface will allow the seat tube to be dramatically flared at the bottom bracket for additional drivetrain rigidity. Adding to that will be the BB92 bottom bracket shell with press-fit bearing cups.
More budget-oriented 29" riders will also have a Rocky Mountain Hammer 29 at their disposal built with Reynolds 725 chromoly tubing.
All of Rocky Mountain's new 29" models will be available this fall.
New rigs from Commencal
Commencal celebrate Gee and Rachel Atherton's twin UCI World Championship wins with a new Supreme DH WCS frame. Though essentially just a special paint job, the commemorative frame is still an impressive bit of kit with 200mm (8") of rear wheel travel via Commencal's Contact System linkage system, an adjustable head tube angle (64 +/- 1), micro-adjustable rear dropouts, and an 83mm-wide bottom bracket shell to maintain a good chain line with the 150mm rear end.
Slopestyle riders can opt for the new Absolut SX, still in prototype form but apparently fitted with 140mm (5.5") of rear wheel travel via a concentric bottom bracket pivot and supplemental shock link mounted beneath the top tube. Interchangeable dropouts will easily accommodate either singlespeed or geared builds and the tapered head tube is ready to accept the latest crop of aggressive long-travel single-crown forks.
For trail riders, Commencal will offer the Carbon Meta 5.5, a lighter and stiffer version of the company's proven aluminium version. Claimed weight is 2.68kg (5.9lb) with the included Fox Racing Shox RP23 air shock and interchangeable rear dropouts will fit either standard 10mm quick-release, 12mm thru-axle, or Maxle thru-axle systems.
Spotted! A sneak peak at SRAM's upcoming XX brake in the flesh
While we were in the Specialized team pit area at Sea Otter getting the scoop on the company's new 29" models, we also couldn't help but notice that Burry Stander's S-Works Epic happened to be fitted with SRAM XX hydraulic disc brakes – conspicuously camouflaged with strips of electrical tape.
Now that we've seen the 2010 Avid Elixir CR Mag though, it seems that the XX brakes are essentially the same save for a few upgrades. Stander's brakes were fitted with a full complement of titanium hardware and the 160/140mm front/rear rotors feature stainless steel brake tracks riveted to alloy six-bolt carriers.
We're still wondering about the caliper material – magnesium, perhaps? – but will have to continue to wait until the official launch later next month.
Check back for more Sea Otter Classic highlights this week, including video!

Author Notes: This recipe is pretty easy, and kind of pretty although you do have to multitask a bit. I think corn and quinoa combine well, and then you just add a roasted pepper and seasonings and you are on your way to a hot summer bee sting. —pierino
Serves: 4
2 ears corn
cup black quinoa
cups vegetable stock
yellow bell pepper
Olive oil
Salt and generous cracked black pepper
In This Recipe
- In your kitchen, over a gas burner, roast the yellow pepper until it get's charred all around. Stick it in a paper bag, crimped to seal or in a bowl which you can seal up with cling wrap.
- Fire up your grill, we always prefer real wood charcoal, but gas is okay here. Pull back the husks on the corn and grill until it's cooked and showing some charring. Set aside.
- Back to your yellow pepper. When it's cool enough to handle, peel off most of the charred skin but actually a bit of black is still desirable. Cut off the stem end and remove the seeds. How hard is that? Strip out the veins and cut the damn thing into strips. Hold covered until ready to use.
- Using a sharp knife strip the corn kernels off the cobs and hold in a bowl until I tell you not to.
- Bring the vegetable stock to a simmer and add the black quinoa (I did say black right), cook for about 15 minutes covered. When done dress with just olive oil, the salt and black pepper.
- To present, mix the corn kernels with the quinoa. Spoon out onto a platter and then arrange the yellow pepper strips crosswise over that.
- Note to cook: I'm keeping the seasonings minimal here because I want these flavors to sing on their own, although black pepper matters. Also if you are grill master you can roast that pepper over your hot coals but be sure that you have enough heat to finish the corn.

Dear Amy: I have a good friend who is very nice, very thoughtful and very dependable. Whenever anyone needs to reach her, my friend is just one text message away. But that is just what seems to be the problem -- she is always reachable and her phone is always there, ringing off the hook with text messages.
I recently spent time with her, and we hardly talked for the few hours we were together, because of her constant receiving and sending messages.
She was texting at least three times every five minutes.
I appreciate that whenever anyone needs to text her, she never fails to answer promptly, but it is extremely annoying to witness. I feel as though when I hang out with her that I am really hanging out with her phone.
What is the best way to approach her about this?
-- Annoyed With Texting
Dear Annoyed: I don't get it. Unless your friend is a paramedic on duty or perhaps a renowned heart surgeon waiting for the delivery of an organ to transplant, why is it necessary for her to be in constant contact with her circle of connections?
I agree with you that it is very annoying to watch someone you're with read and respond to text messages. Furthermore, it is exceedingly rude of the person to do this with abandon when she's with you.
Perhaps you should send your pal a text, telling her in 140 characters or less how this habit affects you. Here goes:
"Dear friend, your constant texting while we're together is driving me nuts. Let's both put our phones down while we're together. I'll start."
(This message measures exactly 140 characters of text.)
After sending your text, turn your phone off and toss it into the middle of the cafe table.
Dare her to do the same.
Dear Amy: My husband has two children and three grandchildren. They all live about an hour away from us. I am not close to them.
His relationship with his kids can best be described as "polite."
One granddaughter, whom we have seen once in the last four years, just graduated from college.
We sent her a card, a book and money.
The youngest granddaughter was just "promoted" from elementary school.
We gave her money.
At the last event where we saw her, she barely acknowledged us, and only spoke because her father made her.
We have not heard from either one of these kids with a thank-you.
The mother of the college grad said she (the granddaughter) was going to contact us.
The father of the 11-year-old said he "thought" she had written us a note.
I would like to write them off. My husband is indifferent.
I'd like to know your thoughts.
-- Beverly in California
Dear Beverly: You and your husband have no relationship to speak of with these children, and yet you expect them to act in a way that denotes some sort of closeness.
A child will naturally act shy around a virtual stranger, especially when they sense that this stranger is watching in judgment, as you obviously are.
You and your husband live close by. If you wanted these children to value you, you would make some sort of effort to be a part of their lives.
I agree that these children should thank you for their gifts. But it is an extreme shame that your relationship with them is so flimsy that it hinges on this act alone.
Dear Amy: I'm responding to the letter in your column from the "Bothered Bride," who was worried about the performance of the 5-year-old flower girl at her wedding.
Balky 5-year-olds make for wonderful wedding stories, and pictures of them can be used later for blackmail.
The bride should give the child a good idea of what she should do, and if something happens during the ceremony, said bride should grin big, enjoy the show and let her guests know she's ready to roll with life's punches.
-- Valerie in Maryland
Dear Valerie: Exactly.

Wakefield will be examined today and given a cortisone shot. The stiffness is similar to what he experienced late last season. ... Michael Bowden is scheduled to start for the PawSox today, so it looks like either Devern Hansack or Charlie Zink will get the ball on Tuesday night.
With Wakefield out and Bartolo Colon not due back until September, the Red Sox will likely have to stay with a struggling Clay Buchholz in the rotation and ride out his on-the-job training. Mike Lowell on Buchholz:
I think his pace of game has to improve. I don't know if he's thinking too much. I'd kind of prefer him to just go out there and fire because he's got good stuff. ... It's that consistency thing. It's everyone. It's the pitcher, it's us as hitters. I think that's what we look ... It sounds so simple, but it's not that easy.Colon pitched three innings (34 pitches, 27 strikes) for Pawtucket yesterday, allowing three hits and no runs. After the game, he left the team to be with his ailing father in the Dominican Republic.
Dustin Pedroia's road hitting streak is at 29 games. The Herald reports that "according to the best research currently available", the club record is Tris Speaker's 32-gamer from June 17 to August 11, 1912.
NY Post: "That tick ... tick ... tick ... you hear is the countdown to a Yankee-less October."
That's very nice, but it would behoove the Red Sox (4.5 GB East, 1.5 GA WC) to get their collective ass in gear.

Can I use it?
Effective use of Crystal requires training and knowledge of both Crystal Reports itself and the database structure of the information system being accessed. Because most of Baylor's information systems have very complex relational database structures, anything more than very basic usage requires some level of technical expertise or literacy. Also, only those employees with approved access to university systems (e.g. Banner) and with an established "need to know" additional data, can be granted access to those systems through Crystal Reports. For questions regarding these issues, contact Steven Kucera (ext. 4565).
How do I get it?
Assuming the criteria above are met, Crystal Reports requires a license which must be purchased by the client department through Technology Procurement within the Baylor Purchasing Office. (approximate cost: $400-$500)
What about training and support?
ITS provides general Crystal Reports training as well as come-and-go consulting labs. Click HERE to browse the all the POD seminars for those related to Crystal Reports and if you don't see any courses scheduled at a time you can attend, contact Alisa Dabney (ext. 4310). (Hint: Choose to browse just the ITS Seminars to reduce the list of sessions returned.)
Also, Information Systems & Services staff can provide additional one-on-one Crystal Reports consulting. For help with Crystal, contact Alisa Dabney (ext. 4310).

Loving the game but it is unplayable for me. My issue is that when I enter combat it becomes a hour long fight. Everything runs and looks fine at first. When I try to firer my weapons that's where the issue starts. Everything run's like I have 2 frames a second. I was only able to test out 2 weapons.
Laser: the dots move around the circle normally. After you hit the first the animation stops for the other two. The game still reads the dots moving but I see them staying still. I know this because if I wait the animation jumps to me missing. I have to guess using the speed they are going before the animation stopped. This is really hard leading me to only hit one laser most of the time.
Torpedo: This is the worst. When I try to hit the lines in the circle it's like hitting a dart board while moving and blind folded. Depending on the speed of the line effect's how hard it is to hit. Slow line's are "OK" in letting me see them moving up and down. All the other speeds range from jumping all over the place to sitting at the bottom of the screen then teleporting to the top. I think I was able to hit one hit the whole time playing.
I have not tried any other weapons so far. I did the first three missions in the past three days. It takes so long to do anything in the game. I end up just shooting one laser and wait for the slooooow recharge. Is there a fix for this issue? Thank you.

Re: Droid turbo frame drop in combat
Likely a known audio issue with Android 5.x+. Workaround is disable sound/music in the game options menu. You can also test out our latest beta build if you want to confirm we've fixed it.
Hope that helps.

In November and December 2017 we asked for your views on Castle Gateway ideas - although the deadline for formal feedback has passed, you can take a look at the latest information on the Castle Gateway Masterplan and join the conversation online.
Piccadilly developed as a street throughout the 19th and 20th centuries to improve access to the city centre. Once a flood plain, it was then used for industry and warehousing. With these uses gone, development is needed to give the area a role in 21st century York.
