When I first wrote about the early praise for Zero Dark Thirty, director Kathryn Bigelow's interpretation of the hunt for Osama bin Laden, I figured the next big round of news about the movie would its Oscar nod. Instead, the movie is stirring up all sorts of controversy, and unlike early whispers that the film would essentially be a propaganda ad for the Obama administration, current complaints are related to the waterboarding scene shown in the first moments of the movie.
Even Sen. John McCain has spoken out against ZDT's torture depiction, saying that despite what the movie may lead viewers to believe, extreme interrogation did not provide information that led to the discovery of bin Laden's compound. The filmmakers got it wrong, says McCain -- and others agree. Some are even going so far as to call for a boycott of the film, because it "glorifies" torture.
My take? You need to see this movie for yourself, instead of letting people to tell you what it's about.
If you take the advice of this writer with the Huffington Post, you'll boycott the movie because it doesn't apologize for the torture it shows, and it doesn't specifically call out the fact that the torture that occurred wasn't what led investigators to bin Laden:
Zero Dark Thirty starts with phone calls from the World Trade Center on 9/11 and moves rapidly to detainees being waterboarded and twisted into positions not seen in nature. That torture produces a clue. Which is useful when the film turns to traditional investigative methods. (…) Yes, we tortured. But that sequence of events is wrong. In the film -- and as a matter of widely-acknowledged fact -- it's only the traditional methods that pay off. (…) By front-loading the film with the gruesome reality of torture -- but not presenting a single character who sees what's happening and condemns it as illegal, immoral and ineffective -- director Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal, her screenwriter and co-producer, get to have it both ways. (…) I would bet that audiences won't be sickened by waterboarding and other torture -- they'll cheer.
Okay. So he admits that in the film, it's never falsely implied that torture led to bin Laden's capture. He's saying that the film will make you cheer for torture? You know, I somehow doubt that. I bet there won't be a single viewing which involves audience members leaping from their seats to applaud that waterboarding scene.
McCain, on the other hand, seems to believe that the movie does present a fictionalized account in which torture provides the answers needed to find bin Laden:
Yet the movie, of copy of which McCain said he received Monday, indicates that's how the United States found the al-Qaida leader. The filmmakers fell for it hook, line and sinker, McCain, R-Ariz., said Tuesday.
Meanwhile, another reviewer describes the movie's portrayal of torture thusly:
Yes, the debate about whether the depiction of extreme torture in the film is necessary is a valid one, but as Bigelow said recently, "I wish it was not part of our history, but it was." As for that argument that the torture shown in the movie leads to the clue that tips off the hunt for bin Laden, that's not true. It's actually during a different scene where the prisoner is being treated kindly that the information is revealed. Zero Dark Thirty doesn't chose sides, even in the torture discussion.
See, that's why I want to see it more than ever. Not only because I don't want armchair movie critics or politicians telling me what I should and shouldn't see -- and what interpretations I should make from a drama the filmmakers themselves describe as "a movie -- not a documentary" -- but because that's what I've heard all along about Zero Dark Thirty: it doesn't politicize anything. It doesn't tell us that torture is bad or that Obama is good, it tells us a dramatic story about dedicated intelligence and military personnel whose fierce determination got the job done.
I'm inclined to believe a movie is all the more powerful when it allows its audience to draw their own conclusions. Zero Dark Thirty will surely be divisive no matter what, but the idea of boycotting the film because it doesn't decide our values for us? I can only wonder what the men and women who were actually involved in the massive bin Laden operation think about that.
What do you think about the controversy surrounding the torture scene in Zero Dark Thirty? Are you still planning to see the film?

The Office of Research and Economic Development is again soliciting proposals from Mississippi State faculty who desire to create interdisciplinary, cross-college research groups on campus.
These grants will be in the amount of $2,000 each and limited to a period of 12 months (renewable one time for a total of 24 months and $4,000). The grants are intended to facilitate interdisciplinary interaction between faculty and students that have a common research theme.
The collaborative teams are expected to meet on a regular basis, share research ideas, and prepare one or more proposals within the first 12 months to a funding agency.
To apply for a first time research facilitation grant, faculty should submit a request (not to exceed two pages) to ORED that outlines the proposed research topic, the names and departmental affiliations of the faculty who have agreed to participate, identification of what funding agencies would be interested in funding this topic, and whether or not there is international collaborative potential.
If the request is to renew an existing cross-college group, submit the information requested above plus a third page that addresses progress made during the first year of funding. Specifically identify proposals submitted by the research group and their current status (e.g., pending decision, awarded, declined).
Proposals should be forwarded no later than Oct. 11, 2013, through the appropriate associate dean for research to Associate Vice President for Research Drew Hamilton. Submissions will be reviewed by ORED for funding decisions.
Questions concerning this opportunity should be addressed to Dr. Hamilton at email@example.com or 662-325-3570.

Oilers Quick Hits..
So I had an actual work day today, and missed the goings on with the Oil today.
One of them, was an apology from Kevin Lowe for his comments about there being "two types of fans". I'm pretty sure that anyone offended by his words the other day are going to still be just as offended.
The other was the signing of Yale forward Andrew Miller. This makes me wish I watched the NCAA Frozen Four, but I completely forgot about this. Ah well. It's a one year deal and I don't see any problem with this, although we really should be concerned about the number of contracts we have and not waste them on just anyone. The one thing I've noticed is this guy is quite small at 5'8, 170lbs. Beyond that, I know nothing about him yet.. but will do some digging.
Justin Schultz was also named the AHL defenseman of the year, which is impressive considering how he only played 34 games there. I'm pretty surprised he didn't win rookie of the year too. But hey, defenseman of the year is pretty much as good or better.

Experience Arm Catalepsy
Those who master self-hypnosis master many of their own physical processes. And hypnotic phenomena, such as arm catalepsy, are an excellent way to discover and explore the conscious / unconscious split.
Catalepsy means becoming rigid, immobile and strong. And as with all hypnotic phenomena catalepsy diminishes as trance lightens, then disappears once you come out of trance. Arm catalepsy can be used in therapy as a metaphor for developing strength and determination in other areas of life, as well as training the client how to 'let their unconscious mind get on with things'.
During hypnotic phenomena such as arm catalepsy, the conscious mind can sit back and observe what the unconscious mind is doing. This gives an unparalleled insight into how to control the functioning of the conscious mind.
And imagine what happens when you become skilled at this and able to give commands for your unconscious mind to fulfil!
Great sports stars and artists often observe their own mastery as if the conscious part of themselves separate from their own unconscious excellence.
As your arm starts to become cataleptic you'll be given powerful suggestions to begin experiencing a great many positive changes in your life.

Graphite Web Hosting is a new UK based venture operated by Graphite Communications Ltd. The venture will focus on the web hosting, domain name and search engine optimisation markets.
Graphite would like to present a business-like, professional and straightforward impression to our web site visitors, so the design needs to reflect this.
Initially we will focus on the UK market, but hope to expand quickly into worldwide English speaking markets. Generally we are targeting non/semi-technical people who need to get web hosting or domain names. Thus the site design should be fairly simple, with obvious promotion of our core sales messages.
Examples of sites we like:
Graphite needs a design creating for the new web site. The design should be relatively simple, allowing clear delivery of our marketing and sales messages, but still retain a modern style, without being overly "new media".
We need both a homepage template and a content page template.
The site will consist of the following top level category pages:
* Homepage (primary focus on web hosting packages)
* Hosting services section
* Domain names purchasing section
* SSL security certificates section
* Search engine optimisation services section
* About Graphite (about us, contact us etc)
Each of the sections (apart from the homepage) must be able to support any number of content/sub pages.
* The design must be 1000px wide, centred within the browser window
* The various components of the design should be modular, allowing re-use across various pages (e.g. promo boxes should be usable on both the homepage and a deep content page)
* All designs must be submitted as layered Photoshop PSD files

Tender Mother Madonna and Teen Girls
Madonna continues to direct W.E. in London. She also wrote the script...
Anyway, Lourdes has been with her mom almost constantly on set – she even has a walk on role – obviously eager to follow in the family business. Has been for a while. Madonna raising a teenager - there are a lot of things I don't love about Madonna right now but this, this I love so much. I love when they hold hands. I love when she kisses her in front of the crew and I wonder what Lola must be thinking.
When Madonna is your mom do you get mortified when she kisses you, or do you say to yourself – yeah, bitches, my mom is Madonna, you're allowed to be jealous. Oh wait, didn't she blog about being embarrassed about her mom's dancing at the Jay-Z concert?
Her latest blog is actually pretty amazing too. She's all about 80s hiphop and Kick-Ass right now. And even the daughter of Madonna puts posters up in her bedroom – click here to see.
Speaking of 13 year old girls, Michael K at Dlisted.com just posted my favourite thing in life maybe of all time. Sydney Dalton was the #1 trending topic on Twitter yesterday because she posted a video on YouTube with her friends trashing a Justin Bieber poster. You can imagine the sh-t that ensued.
Click here to see the post and watch the 2nd video. She speaks like an adult. Note the dramatic pauses. Note the very mature voice modulation. In between the profanity. And the gravitas of it all. The drama. The seriousness with which she addresses the situation. The use of the word INFER. And FATHOM. But no vocabulary can grow the mind.
See? This is why I love teen girls so much.

Since earlier in 2012 UNITAR/UNOSAT and the Swiss Development Cooperation are engaged in implementing a water management and capacity development project in Chad. This project, also known with its francophone name of "ResEAU", has the ambitious aim of strengthening national capacity in the area of water resources by using mapping combined with capacity development techniques tailored to the local requirements and designed together with Swiss and Chadian partners.
In Switzerland, UNOSAT experts work together with the Centre for Hydrogeology and Geothermics at Neuchatel University, and Swisstopo, the Swiss Federal Office of Topography. This collaboration is expected to produce a hydrogeological cartographic concept and first mock-up for map series at 1:500'000 and 1:200'000 scale.
In Chad, UNOSAT expert Marie-Louise Vogt ensures permanent coordination and scientific cooperation with Chadian experts and government officials. Hosted at the Ministry of Urban and Rural Hydraulics, she covers the in-country technical aspects of the project as well as the interface with line ministries and other international entities with the objective of retrieving and systematising all geographic information nowadays available over the territory of Chad. Regular missions from Geneva ensure the necessary backup and overall coordination with other UN partners in the country, especially UNDP and UNICEF.
The project has been designed to also leverage university knowledge from both countries and integrate it in the long-term results of the initiative. Olivier Senegas, the UNOSAT Senior Officer in charge of the project coordination, explains: "We are defining together with the Ministry of Higher Education the basis of a new curriculum in hydrogeology and GIS. Last time I visited the country, we agreed with the Director of Scientific and Technical Research at the Ministry to set up a University course dedicated to professional officers from Ministry of Hydraulics, but also to geology and hydrogeology post-graduate students".
In developing this course, UNOSAT is planning to connect the experience and the knowledge of Chad and Switzerland, working in partnership with the University of Neuchatel on the one hand and with the Consortium of Institutes and Universities of Chad on the other. The plan is to roll out a new Certificate of Advanced Studies to be part of the Master curriculum by September 2013.
While working on medium term goals in Chad, the UNOSAT team is also able to respond to operational requirements to help the country during emergencies. For example, during the October floods that affected the south of Chad along the Chari River, UNICEF and UNOSAT triggered the International Charter Space and Major disasters to acquire satellite data to map the flood extent and provide geographic information on the areas affected by the disaster.

mboldt needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 38 designs submitted by 12 freelance designers.
ALICAP insures public schools in the state of Nebraska. ALICAP provides Workers' Compensation, Property, Liability, Auto and Errors and Omissions coverage for its members.
The legal name of the entity is NASB All Lines Interlocal Cooperative Aggregate Pool. Due to the long name of the entity it is sometimes simply written out as NASB ALICAP. The NASB ALICAP is known by its members simply by the acronym "ALICAP" which is pronounced (alley-cap). The logo should likely center around the name as ALICAP.
ALICAP is a risk management pool. The risk management pool is simply a group of approximately 150 Nebraska public school which have come together to self-insure their risk exposures rather than purchase traditional commercial insurance.
ALICAP was formed by and is managed in part by the Nebraska Association of School Boards, which is where the letters NASB came from in the name of the entity.
ALICAP is all about providing coverage to Nebraska Schools. ALICAP coverage includes the protection of the staff, students, administration, and visitors. ALICAP coverage protection proves financial recover in the event of weather related storms, intruders, and injuries incurred by employees while on the job.
ALICAP has been in existence since 1990. ALICAP currently has no logo. Past ideas for a logo centered on the ideas of outline of a baseball cap, images of a school bus, image of a school building, image of a pencil, or other images that might prompt thoughts of a school.
- Can have but is not a must... "All Lines Interlocal Cooperative Aggregate Pool"
- Should appeal to school administrators, school board members, and give a person a positive image about schools.
No crayon look.

ddI (Videx) is a drug used as part of antiretroviral therapy (ART). It is manufactured by Bristol-Myers Squibb and by Barr Laboratories. Didanosine is also known as ddI or dideoxyinosine. Generic versions have been tentatively approved under PEPFAR (see Fact Sheet 925).
Didanosine is a nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor, or nuke. These drugs block the reverse transcriptase enzyme. This enzyme changes HIV's genetic material (RNA) into the form of DNA. This has to occur before HIV's genetic code gets inserted into an infected cell's own genetic codes.
Who Should Take Didanosine?
Didanosine was approved in 1991 as an antiretroviral drug (ARV) for people with HIV infection. The generic version was approved in 2004. It has been studied in adults and children who weigh at least 20 kg (44 lbs.). There are no absolute rules about when to start ART. You and your health care provider should consider your CD4 cell count, your viral load, any symptoms you are having, and your attitude about taking ART. Fact Sheet 404 has more information about guidelines for the use of ART.
If you take didanosine with other ARVs, you can reduce your viral load to extremely low levels, and increase your CD4 cell counts. This should mean staying healthier longer.
What About Drug Resistance?
Many new copies of HIV are mutations. They are slightly different from the original virus. Some mutations can keep multiplying even when you are taking an ARV. When this happens, the drug will stop working. This is called "developing resistance" to the drug. See Fact Sheet 126 for more information on resistance.
Sometimes, if your virus develops resistance to one drug, it will also have resistance to other ARVs. This is called "cross-resistance."
Resistance can develop quickly. It is very important to take ARVs according to instructions, on schedule, and not to skip or reduce doses.
How Is Didanosine Taken?
Didanosine is available in a slow-release capsule (Videx EC) in capsules of various strengths, and as a powder that is dissolved in water. Videx EC should be taken with an empty stomach. Do not chew it; swallow it whole.
The recommended dose of didanosine is based on weight. For people weighing at least 20 kg (44 lbs.) but less than 25 kg (55 lbs.) the dose is 200 mg (milligrams) daily; more than 25 kg but less than 60 kg (between 55 and 132 lbs.), 250 mg daily; and over 60 kg (132 lbs.), the dose is 400 mg once a day.
If you have had liver or kidney problems, the dose of didanosine may need to be reduced.
The original form of didanosine could not be absorbed in an acid environment. It contained a buffer to reduce the effects of stomach acid. The original form of didanosine was taken on an empty stomach, 30 minutes before eating or two hours after a meal. Taking it with food reduced blood levels by as much as 50%.
What Are the Side Effects?
When you start any ART you may have temporary side effects such as headaches, high blood pressure, or a general sense of feeling ill. These side effects usually get better or disappear over time.
The most common side effects of didanosine are diarrhea, headaches, vomiting and rash. Diarrhea, caused by the buffer in the tablets, is sometimes severe. Side effects are less common with the EC version of didanosine.
In rare cases, didanosine may cause a serious liver problem called portal hypertension. Other serious side effects of didanosine are peripheral neuropathy, pancreatitis, and lactic acidosis:
Peripheral neuropathy is a form of nerve damage. It occurs in up to 20% of people who take didanosine. It usually shows up as tingling, numbness, or a sharp burning sensation in the feet, legs, or hands. The nerve damage is usually temporary and will go away if you stop taking didanosine, or reduce the dose. If you continue to take didanosine after nerve damage shows up, it may become permanent. See Fact Sheet 555 for more information.
Pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas, a large gland located behind the stomach. Less than 7% of people get it, usually after taking didanosine for a few months. Pancreatitis can be fatal. If you are taking didanosine and have sharp pain near your stomach, back, or sides, with nausea and vomiting, stop taking didanosine immediately and call your health care provider. Pancreatitis is more common in older patients, people who have had it before, and those with kidney problems.
Lactic acidosis is a buildup of lactic acid in the blood. This is a by-product of abnormal energy production by the cells. It may be caused by damage to the mitochondria. See Fact Sheet 556 for more information on mitochondrial toxicity. Lactic acidosis can cause severe damage to the pancreas and liver. Symptoms of lactic acidosis can include weight loss, abdominal pain, and severe fatigue.
Didanosine may also cause some immune disorders through immune restoration syndrome (see Fact Sheet 481). This can occur many months after initiation of treatment.
How Does Didanosine React With Other Drugs?
Didanosine can interact with other drugs or supplements you are taking. These interactions can change the amount of each drug in your bloodstream and cause an under- or overdose. New interactions are constantly being identified. Make sure that your health care provider knows about ALL drugs and supplements you are taking.

Boehner: Senators should get 'off their ass'
House Speaker John Boehner told Republicans in a closed-door meeting Tuesday that the House doesn't need to pass a third sequester replacement bill before the "Senate gets off their ass and passes it once."
It's a familiar refrain from the Ohio Republican, who has consistently criticized the Senate for failing to act to blunt the sequester. The call for the Senate to move legislation came at a meeting at the Capitol Hill club.
Story Continued Below
( Also on POLITICO: Boehner's big bet)
"It's time for the Senate to act," Boehner said during a media availability after the meeting. "It's not about the House. We've acted. Where's the president's plan to avoid the sequester? Have you seen one? I haven't seen one. All I've heard is he wants to raise taxes again. Where's the president's plan? Where's the Senate Democrats' plan? I want to see it."
President Barack Obama plans to travel to Newport News, Va., on Tuesday to highlight the effect of the sequester on the military. He will be accompanied by several lawmakers, including Virgina GOP Rep. Scott Rigell.
( WATCH: Boehner: Obama using military as prop)
House Republicans passed their plan to replace sequester cuts with cuts of their own in the 112th Congress, rendering it useless during this session. Boehner said his chamber will "be prepared to move quickly" if the Senate passes a bill.
Action in the upper chamber is coming. The Senate will vote on dueling plans this week designed to stave off the $85 billion, across-the-board spending cuts known that are set to take effect on Friday.
Senate Democrats plan to take up a bill that will replace the sequester with a mix of spending cuts and revenue, mostly garnered from a minimum 30 percent tax on millionaires known as the "Buffett rule." That approach, however, is a nonstarter with Republicans because of its focus on tax hikes.
Senate Republicans are currently trying to decide whether to offer their own alternative to the Democratic bill, which would give Obama more flexibility in implementing the automatic spending cuts. Both bills would most likely need to surmount a 60-vote threshold when the votes are held on Wednesday or Thursday — and both are likely to fail.
But top Senate Republicans worry about placing so much power in the hands of a Democratic president, who would be able to wield the budget-cutting knife at will.
( Also on POLITICO: Sequestration: Bring it on!)
"I spent long hours writing the defense [authorization] bill," McCain told POLITICO, "I'm not about to give up my constitutional obligations to the president of the United States."
"I think the appropriations process belongs in the legislative branch," said Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.). "And to give the administration carte blanche to decide what they're going to fund and not fund, as you're already seeing in some of the statements they're putting out, they're trying to in some ways to maximize the destruction that this creates for political purposes."

Ready to Lead the Rays
As a player, Cail MacLean made Hershey Bears' history by scoring the first goal ever at Giant Center, and if one judges by the Washington Capitals' organization's recent history of hiring coaches from within, the rookie head coach of the South Carolina Stingrays could stand next in line to make history behind the bench in Chocolatetown.
Going undrafted, despite a 34-goal total in his final year of junior hockey, MacLean's ties to the Capitals organization started immediately in rookie season of 1997-98, where he skated for former Washington head coach, Bruce "Butch" Cassidy, with the Jacksonville Lizard Kings of the East Coast Hockey League.
In addition to his stay in Jacksonville that season, MacLean also had brief auditions with the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks of the American Hockey League and Cleveland Lumberjacks of the International Hockey League, setting an early tone for what became a trend throughout his playing days.
"I like to think that I understand a lot of different situations because I had been in so many different ones over the course of my playing career," said MacLean, who skated for 15 different teams over the course of 11 seasons in the pro ranks. "I know what these guys are trying to do and the pressure that they put on themselves."
After the conclusion of the 2004-05 season, which he split between the Bears and Reading Royals of the ECHL while on a Hershey contract, MacLean realized that he had been bitten by the coaching bug for the first time.
"I had played most of the previous year in Reading, being under contract with Hershey and Reading. I had always had a prominent leadership role in my playing career, from junior on," said MacLean, who captained three different ECHL clubs.
"I thought that I was getting older and my sights were no longer set on the NHL, and I really appreciated the leadership aspect. So, I went down there and tried to take note on the coaching aspect and see if I could convert my love of leadership to coaching."
While beginning a head-coaching career in South Carolina on the heels of the perennial ECHL powerhouse's third Kelly Cup title might seem like a tall challenge, one shouldn't shortchange MacLean's chances of overcoming obstacles, like he did so many times in his days of donning a hockey sweater.
"My job is to win hockey games, but I think it is equally important to develop good young hockey players and good young people. I want to come in and do the best job I can in South Carolina. I was fortunate to work under Jared Bednar last year (as an assistant coach); he was an exceptional coach at our level. I'm looking forward to carrying on that winning tradition."
MacLean, quiet, yet insightful, often used the term "tradition" during our conversation, but I got the feeling that he has a deeper sense of the true meaning of that term than the average player. So, it's not surprising that his "heightened sense of history" factored heavily into the Middleton, Nova Scotia native triggering the red light on his historic goal.
"To score the first goal in the history of that building was a real honor," said MacLean who scored an AHL high 16 goals that season with the Bears. "It's one of those moments that I knew that being in Giant Center that night, I understood how much tradition had come before us and we were about to embark on another era of that."

It's always a good idea to go into a licensed game with low expectations. If nothing else, expect some cut corners in the name of easy profitability and quick release. While some of these issues are evident in One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2, they don't stop the game from being more fun than it has any right to be, even for somebody who has no background with the One Piece anime or manga.
For those of you who are One Piece fans, this game contains an original "Dream" story set in the New World. It's not meant to be canon and is basically an excuse to throw a bunch of popular characters from the setting together, giving the Straw Hats a series of crazy battles to fight and unlikely allies to collect. In fact, the Straw Hats are separated early on, meaning that Monkey D Luffy and his navigator Nami will be fighting alongside a lot of unlikely allies before they manage to get the rest of the crew back together.
The story is secondary to the action, however, which is an entertaining mash-up of brawler gameplay with light real-time strategy elements. Each level has territory that the Straw Hats must capture and hold, all while taking out powerful enemies and meeting various goals as set out in the game. There's always one major goal for a level, but it's broken up into smaller, intermediate goals such as capturing specific areas, defeating certain enemies, or protecting AI-controlled allies. Things can change quickly on the battlefield, so players need to stay on their toes and always keep an eye on the current battlefield objective.
Combat itself involves simple combinations using the square and triangle buttons, with characters learning new combination attacks as they level up. The X button allows characters to dodge or charge enemies, and the circle button is used for special attacks, which have usage limited by a spell-power bar. Levels are packed to the gills with mobs of enemies, most of which can easily be mowed down by the player character's attacks. Different types of these basic enemies have different kinds of attacks, but they're so easy to defeat with the simplest of combos that it's hardly worth worrying about that.
Instead, the best way to beat levels is to rush through the little guys and concentrate on boss-level characters, which range from mid-boss pirate and Marine captains to dangerous named characters. This is where the game's "Style Action" mode comes into play. Beating up little guys fills the Style Gauge, and entering Style Mode allows Fighter characters to do devastating damage and Technical characters to slow down enemies while they attack at normal speed. It's best to use Style Mode carefully, as named bosses can enter a state in which they can only be successfully attacked by a character in Style Mode. There are usually a lot of little guys around to punch, though, so the Style Gauge is easy to fill.
If a character defeats enough enemies in Style Mode, a circle prompt will flash, and pressing that button allows the player character to execute a special attack, then summon in a crew member who can fight in the main character's stead for a few moments. With good timing, the player can get free special attacks out of both the main character and crew member, which can devastate even a room full of several mid-bosses and a main boss. Style Mode adds a bit of complexity and strategy to an otherwise simple combat system.
Another aspect of the game that adds complexity and entertainment value is the huge variety of characters available to play. Each of these characters feels unique and has its own array of combination and special attacks. The rubber warrior Monkey D Luffy is a great all-rounder, with attacks that excel at both close and medium range. The fish-man Jinbei is a huge bruiser who clops along slowly in his wooden sandals but unleashes devastating water-based attacks on foes. Marco the Phoenix, on the other hand, flies through the air at blazing speed. It's easy to avoid being damaged with him, but he's difficult to control. There's something here for every kind of player, and a nominal (in-game money) fee raises any character's level to the current maximum, so there's no need for tedious character leveling.
Each level is fairly fast, and the brawling action is fun. The only real downer is that AI-controlled allies are generally useless and must frequently be rescued by the player character. The game has a tendency to throw an army at the player's home-base territory directly after the player has defeated a big boss on the opposite side of the map, so a single player will spend a lot of time dashing from place to place. Thus, teaming up with another player not only makes the game more fun, but also it appears that the levels have been designed with two players in mind.
There are two multiplayer options available. Couch co-op provides a horizontal split-screen view that can make the action a bit more difficult to follow but allows for easy in-person communication. Players can also request a "rescue" online, becoming matched with whatever Internet stranger answers the call. The game is easy enough that playing with strangers shouldn't be an issue, and players gain bonuses for answering rescue calls. Still, couch co-op seems like the best way to play the game overall, and my spouse and I had a blast playing it together. There's a lot of button-mashing involved, so it's best to play in short sessions in order to maximize the fun factor, another aspect that lends the game well to co-op play.

Watch how to make this recipe.
Put the almonds into a large skillet over medium heat. Gently toast the nuts, being careful not to let them burn, for about 3 minutes. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes, 1 chopped garlic clove, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook for another 3 minutes and transfer to a plate to cool. Crush the almonds roughly and put them into a bowl along with the feta cheese, olives, and 1/3 of the basil leaves. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
Put 3 tablespoons olive oil and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes into the skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, remaining garlic, and 1/3 of the basil leaves and cook until the onions start to soften, about 5 minutes. Put in the eggplant and cook until it is soft, about 10 minutes, adding more olive oil if necessary. Add the zucchini, fresh tomatoes, and capers; season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until these vegetables are soft but still whole. Add the canned tomatoes, vinegar, and remaining basil leaves. Continue to cook for another 15 minutes; remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
To serve, put the ratatouille into a bowl or platter and top with the feta, olive, and almond mixture.

Used to be that vacation planning had a lot to do with how long you were taking off and where you were going. These days, a big part of the vacation calculus has to do with plotting how available you're going to be to your workplace.
The biggest question is how responsive you plan to be to your work email. One of the worst parts about going on vacation for many of us is the prospect of returning after a week to find an inbox overflowing with requests, important messages and desperate follow ups to inquire why you haven't responded to the requests and important messages.
And then there are the acres of spam and other junk you'll have to root through. If I skip a day of answering e-mail, I pay for it with hours of inbox organization the next day.
It's no wonder that more and more people opt to keep themselves plugged in, not only when they leave on vacation, but even when they're not on the clock. The expectation is that we are always reachable by email, no matter what. And worse now, people expect us to be instantly available in other ways, through Twitter and Facebook. Who has the time to check Facebook every five minutes?
I like technology and spend a great deal of time with it. But one thing I have, so far, refused to do is join the approximately 35 percent of Americans who own smart phones. Even though I am in a profession that would seem to demand it, I've resisted the urge to go and sink two years of money and commitment to a shiny new smart- phone.
The first reason is practical: smartphone plans are ridiculously expensive. I refuse to believe that turning on 3G data should cost me twice as much as my current mobile plan. There's no way providing that service costs what AT&T and Verizon say it does.
Second is, I don't want to have email and the whole web at my fingertips everywhere. As compelling as that is, I know I would abuse it. I'd be one of those guys checking my email at the park bench, the family barbecue, etc. I already spend too much time with online services. A little self-imposed limitation is not so bad.
It's for this very reason that I've never signed up for MLB TV. If I had access to every baseball game televised, I'd never get off the couch. It's important to know your limits when it comes to self-control.
My solution is an iPod Touch that I've used as a mobile computer (what a smartphone really is) for about six months now. I pay nothing for a plan. When I need to check email, I just find a wi-fi hot spot (at every coffee shop, library, and fast food joint in the country these days) and check. I've even set up the iPod to make voice calls over wi-fi using Google Voice. It's not great, but it's not far off from the call quality I get right now with AT&T.
For anyone else on the fence, I'd recommend the iPod route. I've got off-line calendar sync, voice recording, note taking and it makes a reliable HD video recorder. It's just not a good point-and-shoot camera. My dream is an unlocked, affordable Android device that I could put a data plan without voice. But with mobile companies raking in the dough on the smartphone boom, I don't think I'll see anything like that on the market anytime soon.
So I'm going to continue to hold out and leave the iPhones to everybody else. In the meantime, I'll return that email, but it just might take a while.

Alabama Had Playbook Stolen Before Title Game
By Bill Strange
January 12, 2018
It was a strange lead up to the national championship game for eventual winner Alabama. According to WSB-TV in Atlanta, Crimson Tide defensive line coach Karl Dunbar had his playbook stolen 2 days before they beat Georgia at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. It was taken at the Marriott Marquis. A suspect was caught on video grabbing a bag that contained the playbook and other personal items, but has not been identified.
Alabama defeated Georgia 26-23 in overtime to take the 2017 college football championship game.

WALTHAM, Mass. – The Brandeis women's soccer team scored once in each half, with two of their three senior captains earning the goals, as the Judges defeated visiting Wellesley College, 2-0, in nonconference action on Gordon College tonight. With the win, Brandeis improves to 4-5 on the season, while the Blue fall to 2-6-2.
The Judges opened the scoring early with a 10th-minute goal. Following a corner kick, the ball found its way through the box to sophomore forward Madeline Stein (Mount Kisco, N.Y./Fox Lane). Stein fired a hard shot and Wellesley rookie Claire Cerda (Coral Gables, Fla./Ransom Everglades) made the initial save. Judge senior back and tri-captain Ali Maresca (Wyckoff, N.J./Ramapo) was there to slam home the rebound at the 9:50 mark. It was her second goal of the season, the fourth of her career and her first collegiate game-winner.
Brandeis notched an insurance goal early in the second half. Rookie forward Sapir Edalati (Great Neck, N.Y./Great Neck South) made a nice run down the left side of the field. She crossed the ball through the box to senior midfielder and tri-captain Alanna Torre (Weston, Fla./American Heritage School), who sent it home at the 51:47 mark to give the Judges some breathing room. The goal was Torre's first of the season and ninth of her career. The assist was Edalati's first of the campaign and gave her a team-leading five points.
For the game, Brandeis outshot Wellesley, 24-11, putting 15 of those shots on goal. Cerda had a fine performance in net, making a career-high 13 saves. Sophomore Emily Wilson (Portland, Ore./St. Mary's Acad.) led the visitors with three shots, two on net.
Brandeis junior Francine Kofinas (Dix Hills, N.Y./Half Hollow Hills West) made four saves for the Judges to earn her first complete-game shutout of the season and the sixth of her career.
Brandeis returns to action on October 1 when the Judges open University Athletic Association play against the University of Rochester at 3:30 p.m., while Wellesley faces NEWMAC foe Springfield the same day at 2:30 p.m.

I work from home now (which is good and bad, but that's a different story). Denver is very dry. And winter is very dry. And I don't think our furnace has any humidifying capability. So the air in the house is almost always very dry. This results in a lot of static shocks. I'm very conscious around computers and things, and I discharge before I start working (typically by touching a screw in a light switch panel). Unfortunately, my dogs don't understand why their nose gets shocks randomly when they sniff things around the house. They also don't realize that it's bad for computers. This results in Kuma shuffling his feet around the house and rolling around on the carpet and then heading for my desk. I can hear the static crackling on his hair. Then he goes in for the sniff on my keyboard tray and *ZAP*. He recoils and the shock goes into my tray and my keyboard and makes it stop working. I have to unplug and plug it back in to make it work again. Good stuff.

VoiceThread offers a natural online interaction that lends itself to students presenting & defending their work before experts and peers.— Educause Learning Initiative
One of the things I felt was missing from our curriculum was the real seminar like we had back in college where you read some heavy material and then sit around the table and dig into it together as a class. ... Because the seminar-style course [I was] desigining would be delivered completely online with no face-to-face component, [I] needed a way to recreate the seminar table virtually...— Adena Schutzberg, Penn State University

Those in multi-sensory environments always do better than those in unisensory environments. They have more recall with better resolution that lasts longer, evident even 20 years later.— John Medina, author Brain Rules
Over the last decade a great deal of research has been conducted on the impact of multi-sensory interaction on learning in general, and VoiceThread in particular. Below are abstracts and links to some of this research, and a more complete listing can be found here.

In today's digital world, Extension professionals are using a wide variety of tools to gather feedback and data from program participants and stakeholders (Rowntree, Wittman, Lindquist, & Raven, 2013). Through online asynchronous discussion boards, chat rooms, and even online live synchronous discussions, the Internet has changed the manner of qualitative data collection forever (Stancanelli, 2010). VoiceThread (http://voicethread.com) is a multimedia platform used by primary and secondary school educators around the world as a storytelling and collaborative tool that also offers promise as a tool for qualitative program evaluation. The unique features of VoiceThread provide a rich backdrop for conducting virtual focus group interviews.

This paper discusses how synchronizing Web 2.0 technologies, particularly by using VoiceThread, is able to help English speaking teachers to improve their formative feedback in the teaching of speaking skills. This study shows that the use of VoiceThread able to become one of the solutions to help teachers who want to provide specific, clear and accurate feedback on oral performance activities. This study is an action research, which involves six EFL learners at one of the universities in Indonesia. Before VoiceThread can contribute to improving teachers' formative feedback, this study found that teachers need to do the following five matters, they are: (1) Making learners profile; (2) Making lesson plan; (3) Understanding formative feedback; (4) Determining assessment rubric, and (5) Implementing VoiceThread. Implementing VoiceThread is not only designed to help teachers improve their formative feedback, but also make their students able to notice and learn their teacher's formative feedback afterward. To achieve these objectives, the result of this action research study indicates that giving formative feedback by using VoiceThread is worthwhile since it is a mechanism that combines the asynchronous learning and face-to-face. Thus, this can be considered as an action research on blended learning.

The current study investigated the effects of the use of VoiceThread (VT) on the listening comprehension and attitudes of college students of Arabic as a foreign language. Thirty-five students in two 10-week classes of beginning Arabic participated in this study. The instruction in both classes was the same except that, for one group, the instruction was supplemented by the use of VT to enhance listening and speaking skills during the 10 weeks. Upon completion of the class, students using VT showed superior listening skills. Moreover, an Attitude and Engagement survey showed that the students enjoyed using VT and viewed it as a valuable tool that enhanced their language learning.

This study surveyed 39 students in a College of Education fully online master's program and in a blended doctoral program regarding their experiences using VoiceThread in their courses. Results indicate that students perceive VoiceThread positively in the creation of online community. Students reported feeling more connected their classmates due to the tool's ability to add voice to online activities. Students also felt more connected to their instructor due to VoiceThread's ability to humanize, or make the instructor seem real.

This article describes a VoiceThread /FTC project carried out with advanced ESL students at the Virginia Tech Language and Culture Institute in the National Capital Region. This project is the culminating activity of a series of tasks created with the "backward design" approach in mind. Backward design is a method of designing educational curriculum by setting goals before choosing instructional methods and forms of assessment (Wiggins & McTighe). In this unit, the overarching goal is an oral presentation on Art, which will be recorded by the students using VoiceThread.

The movement to advance the clinical nurse leader (CNL) as an innovative new role for meeting higher health care quality standards continues with CNL programs offered on-line at colleges and universities nationwide. Collaborative learning activities offer the opportunity for CNL students to gain experience in working together in small groups to negotiate and solve care process problems. The challenge for nurse educators is to provide collaborative learning activities in an asynchronous learning environment that can be considered isolating by default. This article reports on the experiences of 17 CNL students who used VoiceThread, a cloud-based tool that allowed them to communicate asynchronously with one another through voice comments for collaboration and sharing knowledge. Participants identified benefits and drawbacks to using VoiceThread for collaboration as compared to text-based discussion boards. Students reported that the ability to hear the voice of their peers and the instructor helped them feel like they were in a classroom communicating with "real" instructor and peers. Students indicated a preference for on-line classes that used VoiceThread discussions to on-line classes that used only text-based discussion boards.

January 25, 2013 08:45 ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 25, 2013) - Tyhee Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TDC) ("Tyhee" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has awarded the contract for Final Engineering and Procurement for the Yellowknife Gold Project (YGP) to Lyntek, Inc. ("Lyntek") of Denver, Colorado. The Company has also contracted Merit Consultants International Inc. ("Merit") of Vancouver, British Columbia to perform a peer review of the CAPEX of the independent YGP Feasibility Study, released in August 2012, and prepared by SRK Consulting, Knight Piésold and Lyntek out of their Denver, Colorado offices.
Tyhee's President and CEO, Brian Briggs, said, "These engagements with these two well respected and experienced firms represent the latest important milestones in our advancement of the YGP towards production, targeted in 2015. Lyntek will provide a detailed plan for all of the project's real engineering and logistical requirements, while Merit will be supplementing the estimates provided in the Feasibility Study with an even more detailed break-down of the best and most cost effective way to manage and deploy the capital that will be going into this project."
About these Companies:
Lyntek is located in Lakewood, Colorado and has been providing engineering and construction management services to the natural resources and environmental remediation industries since 1982. Lyntek provides services from process engineering and feasibility studies through detailed engineering, procurement, construction management, plant start-up, and pilot plants. Lyntek has developed projects on every continent, including the following recent projects:
In addition to these recent projects, Lyntek has extensive experience working on precious metals projects in cold weather regions throughout the world, notably two projects in Northern Alaska (Nixon Fork and Illinois Creek), as well as gold projects for the government of Magadan, and Geometal in Siberia.
Merit has provided Project and Construction Management services to numerous companies in the mining sector, including many projects with both study and construction levels similar to the Yellowknife Gold Project, several of which were gold projects located in northern environments.
Some of Merit's recent projects in these areas include:
Project during the previous study stage;
Merit also continues to work with Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC) for the planning stage for the reclamation work at the Giant Mine in the Northwest Territories.
About Tyhee Gold: Tyhee is focused on developing the first gold mine on its flagship Yellowknife Gold Project ("YPG") in Canada's Northwest Territories. The project is located in the same prolific Archaen Greenstone Belt as the renowned world class "Con-Giant" deposit, which produced a combined 14 million ounces of gold. Tyhee is led by a veteran, project-driven, management team committed to aggressively advancing a permitting and development path targeted to enable mine construction to begin in 2014. An independent Feasibility Study ("FS") has been prepared by SRK Consulting, Knight Piésold and Lyntek, Inc. out of their Denver, Colorado offices, which estimated that, at a base-case gold price of US$1,400 per ounce and a projected 4,000 tonnes-per-day processing plant comprised of a conventional gravity-flotation-cyanide process and incorporating open-pit and underground mining methods on the Ormsby, Bruce Lake, Clan Lake and Nicholas Lake deposits, the YGP is estimated to return a pre-tax net present value (NPV) at a 5% discount rate of approximately $216 million and an internal rate of return of 20% based on initial estimated capital cost of $193 million (including a 10% contingency.) At current gold prices of approximately US$1,600 per oz., the YGP would have an NPV of $375 million, an IRR of 28% and a payback period of 30 months.
The study also estimated Proven and Probable mineral reserves(1) for the YGP at 20,433,000 tonnes at an average grade of 2.03 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold, containing 1,334,000 ounces of gold, resulting in a mine-life of approximately 15 years. Tyhee's technical team has identified six separate gold deposits in the YGP, including Ormsby, Bruce Lake, Clan Lake, Nicholas Lake and Goodwin Lake. These areas have a combined Measured and Indicated resource(2) estimated to total 1,715,000 ounces of gold contained in 27,115,000 tonnes at an average grade of 1.97 g/t, and Inferred resources of 487,000 ounces of gold contained in 5,774,000 tonnes at 2.62 g/t.
(1) The mineral reserve estimate for the YGP is shown above and was calculated by Bret C Swanson BE (Min), Principal Consultant, of SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc. Effective Date of July 1, 2012. Reserves are inclusive of mineral resources.
(2) The mineral resource for the YGP shown above was estimated by Jeff Volk, P. Geo. of SRK Consulting (U.S.), Inc. Effective Date of July 1, 2012.

The Tim Tebow error in New York finally -- mercifully -- is over.
The New York Jets announced Monday morning that Tebow was waived after one season with the team. NFL.com's Albert Breer and Ian Rapoport reported that Tebow was told face-to-face by new general manager John Idzik and coach Rex Ryan when Tebow arrived for phase two of the Jets' offseason program.
|Take a look back at Tim Tebow's career.
Idzik insisted on keeping Tebow through the 2013 NFL Draft in case the Jets could find a trade partner or use for him. After selecting West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith in the second round, Tebow -- not Mark Sanchez -- is the odd man out.
Tebow threw only eight passes as a Jet and rushed the ball 32 times, without great effectiveness. Despite awful quarterback play in front of Tebow, Ryan and offensive coordinator Tony Sparano never wanted to use Tebow as a starter. And they had no idea how to use him as a backup. The Jets wasted a fourth- and sixth-round pick in exchange for Tebow in a trade last offseason that smacked of ownership involvement.
Jets owner Woody Johnson wanted headlines; he got them. He just didn't get a lot of victories. Ryan threw one, last useless verbal bouquet to Tebow on his way out the door.
"We have a great deal of respect for Tim Tebow," Ryan said in a statement released by the Jets. "Unfortunately, things did not work out the way we all had hoped. Tim is an extremely hard worker, evident by the shape he came back in this offseason. We wish him the best moving forward."
Rapoport has reported all weekend that the Jets plan to bring Sanchez to organized team activities and let him compete with Smith for the starting job. It costs a lot to cut Sanchez, and it appears he will remain on the roster this season.
Tebow, on the other hand, is cast out into the wilderness at just the wrong time. It's going to be hard for him to get a job at this stage, much less one with a realistic shot at playing time. Tebow will go through waivers and it's very likely he won't be claimed because of his salary. After he clears waivers, Tebow will be free to sign with any NFL team.
Even if Tebow ever rises again, his stay in New York will go down as a huge career setback. Otherwise, his stay with the Jets will be remembered as the beginning of the end of his quarterbacking career.Follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter @greggrosenthal.
