Jeffrey Stec and Kenneth Handley, former executives of the bankrupt Peak Fitness club chain, have been charged with commercial loan fraud and money laundering conspiracy, the Charlotte Observer reports.
Stec, who owned Peak Fitness, and Handley, who was the company's chief financial officer, fraudulently obtained loans from Wells Fargo and Wachovia, loans that ended up costing the banking institutions almost $2 million combined, according to court documents filed in an indictment on Monday.
Prosecutors say Stec and Handley wanted to purchase a condo on Isle of Palms, SC, for $915,000, and the money from a $590,000 commercial loan from Wachovia obtained in 2007 was diverted into Handley's personal bank account, the newspaper reports. Handley later was approved for an $856,000 loan from Wells Fargo, most of which was transferred back into business accounts, the indictment says.
Stec also obtained three more loans from Wachovia in 2007 and 2008 totaling $3.8 million. The loans allegedly were intended to build or upgrade clubs in Winston-Salem, NC; Kingsport, TN; and Danville, VA, but the money was diverted to other purposes, according to the Observer.
Prosecutors claim Wells Fargo lost about $230,000 and Wachovia about $1.7 million.
Stec sold Fitness Management Group, the parent company of Peak Fitness, in 2007 and bought it back the following year. He also owned Peak Performance Motorsports, which he used for NASCAR competition, according to the indictment.
Fitness Management Group filed for bankruptcy in 2009. Nevada-based Fuzion Investment Capital LLC bought the assets of Peak Fitness out of bankruptcy and later added Allstate Financial Group, Bothell, WA, as an investor. The former Peak Fitness clubs that remained in operation were changed to ZX Fitness. Last month, ZX Fitness closed three clubs in South Carolina.

I am all for the campaign to keep talking about the wonderfully-titled role-playing game Bravely Default: Flying Fairy until Square Enix decides to localize it outside of Japan. It looks fantastic, by all reports it's a great game, and people are buying it! Win-win.
So it's good to see fans organizing to start their own Operation Rainfall-esque campaign in an attempt to convince Square to bring Bravely Default here. Here's to grassroots campaigning! There are only 1,200 of them now, and I imagine that Square would want to sell many more copies than that, but hey. Gotta start somewhere!
(Thanks, James!)

Story highlights
- Port Authority police set up a sting at New York's JFK Airport
- Passengers were complaining of electronic devices being taken from luggage
- Two iPads were planted in a checked bag as part of the sting
- A TSA screener was arrested after, police say, the iPads were found in his backpack
A veteran airport screener at New York's JFK Airport has been charged with grand larceny after he allegedly stole two iPads that were planted in a checked bag as part of a police sting.
Port Authority police initiated the sting after passengers complained of electronic devices being taken from luggage.
While the case highlights a recurring problem of theft at Transportation Security Administration checkpoints, one law enforcement official said it illustrates an even bigger threat.
"If they (an unscrupulous employee) can be taking stuff out of bags, what can they be putting in? That's a serious issue," said the official, who asked not to be named because he was not authorized to talk about the case.
In the JFK incident, there was no suggestion that anything other than attempted theft was involved.
Police said a "decoy bag" was placed among checked luggage at Terminal 4 at JFK on Tuesday.
Police later stopped the screener as he was leaving work on board the airport's AirTrain system. In his backpack, police found the two planted iPads that had been in the decoy bag. They also found in his possession other electronic devices and earphones that had been reported stolen from luggage, and additional stolen items in his home.
Port Authority police identified the man as Sean Henry, 32, of Brooklyn, and said he had been a TSA screener for 10 years.
Henry is charged with three counts of grand larceny, one count of petty larceny and official misconduct. Efforts by CNN to reach Henry were unsuccessful.
TSA spokesman David Castelveter said the individual, who he did not name, "is being processed for removal from TSA."
"TSA holds its employees to the highest ethical standards and has zero tolerance for misconduct in the workplace," Castelveter said.

|My husbands favorite, I have a secret on steak, I only eat the filet side and he loves that I only love the that small little side piece! Why? Because he gets to eat the other side of mine which is the biggest amount, so bonus for my hubby!
4 cloves of garlic sliced lengthwise
garlic powder
Chianti Butter
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (3/4 stick), at room temperature
2 teaspoons Chianti or red wine
1 teaspoon kosher salt
First make the butter spread:
Use a spatula, mix softened butter in a mixing bowl until it's spreadable. Add wine and salt and mix until thoroughly combined. Place compound butter on a sheet of plastic wrap. Shape into a log and twist the ends to seal. Place butter in the refrigerator to harden.
Brush steak with olive oil, season well with salt and pepper, make slits into the steak and fill with garlic slices. Sprinkle with garlic powder lightly and oregano. Heat grill on high till very hot. Sear steaks on each side. Then lower to medium low heat, cook to desired taste, rare, medium or well done.

SOFIA, Bulgaria (July 6, 2012) – The U.S. Men's National Volleyball Team advanced to the semifinals of the 2012 FIVB World League with a 25-21, 25-16, 25-17 victory over host Bulgaria on Friday.
The U.S. Men earned three points with the victory and won Pool A with four points and a 1-1 record. They will play Cuba (1-1), the second-place team from Pool B, on Saturday while Bulgaria (1-1) will face Poland (2-0). The winners will play Sunday for the gold medal while the losers will compete for bronze.
The U.S. victory was its fifth in 17 matches against Bulgaria. It last played Bulgaria in 2008, going 1-3 during World League pool play.
On Friday, the U.S. led Bulgaria in kills, 40-34, blocks, 10-5 and aces, 5-1. The U.S. Men also took advantage of 20 Bulgarian errors while committing 14.
"Our outside hitters passed the ball really well, which helped us run our offense," U.S. opposite and team captain Clay Stanley (Honolulu) said. "Our middles had an excellent match getting numerous kills off the net. Donny (Suxho) set them really well. I look forward to the semifinals."
U.S. outside hitters Matt Anderson (West Seneca, N.Y.) and Sean Rooney (Wheaton, Ill.) shared the scoring lead with 15 points each. Anderson scored on a match-high 11 attacks (50.0 kill percent, .455 hitting efficiency), three blocks and one ace. Rooney totaled 10 attacks (62.5 kill percent, .563 hitting efficiency), three blocks and two aces.
Stanley added eight points on six attacks, one block and one kill.
Middle blockers David Smith (Saugus, Calif.) and David Lee (Alpine, Calif.) each scored seven points. Smith scored with seven attacks while Lee added four attacks and three blocks.
Setter Donald Suxho (Korce, Albania) contributed two points on two attacks and serving substitute David McKienzie (Littleton, Colo.) scored on an ace.
Suxho was credited with 16 assists and no faults. He set the United States to a 52.0 kill percent and a .455 hitting efficiency. Bulgaria had a 38.6 kill percent and a .182 hitting efficiency.
The U.S. was credited with 16 excellent receptions, including eight from Rooney and six by libero Rich Lambourne (Tustin, Calif.).
Todor Aleksiev paced Bulgaria with 12 points on 10 attacks and two blocks.
"What I'm most proud of is how our team responded and the attention to detail and energy they brought tonight," U.S. Head Coach Alan Knipe (Huntington Beach, Calif.) said. "We are going to need to show that in these next two matches."
Knipe started Anderson and Rooney at outside hitter, Lee and Smith at middle blocker, Suxho at setter and Lambourne at libero.
McKienzie and Paul Lotman (Lakewood, Colo.) played as substitutes.
It is the first time all four teams have reached the World League semifinals together. The United States and Cuba have each won one World League title. The U.S. won World League in 2008 before going on to win the Olympic gold medal. The U.S. also won bronze in 2007. Poland won its only bronze medal at the 2011 edition and Bulgaria's previous best result is fourth in 1994, 2004 and 2006.
The U.S. Men faced Cuba in May in the semifinals of the NORCECA Men's Continental Olympic Qualification Tournament. The U.S. defeated Cuba, 28-26, 25-18, 25-20. The U.S. is 3-2 against Cuba since 2008.
The U.S. Men took an 8-6 lead at the first technical timeout (TTO), scoring on two kills from Stanley, one each from Smith and Lee along with three team blocks. The U.S. led 16-15 at the second TTO and extended it to 17-15 on a Rooney block. With the U.S. leading 18-17, Bulgaria served into the net and then hit the ball out to give the U.S. a 20-17 lead. The U.S. reached set point at 24-20. Bulgaria scored on an attack by Georgi Bratoev before Rooney ended it with a kill.
Bulgaria led 4-2 in the second set when the U.S. scored on an Anderson block giving Smith the serve. Smith's jump serve caused problems for Bulgaria and the U.S. put away two straight overpasses along with a third kill to lead 6-4. The U.S. led 8-6 at the first TTO then used a 4-1 run to increase the lead to 12-7. In the run, Lee, Anderson and Smith had kills and Rooney had an ace. The U.S. Men still led by five at the second TTO, 16-11. The U.S. kept up the pressure and reached set point at 24-16 on an ace by Anderson. A final attack from Rooney ended it for the U.S.
The U.S. Men took an 8-6 lead at the first TTO of the third set. With the score tied 6-6, the U.S. scored on a Bulgaria error and a block from Rooney and Lee. The U.S. extended its lead to three at 13-10 before Bulgaria pulled to within on at 13-12 and 14-13. The U.S. came back with two points, including a Smith attack, to lead 16-13 at the second TTO. The U.S. was leading 20-17 when Bulgaria's attack hit the net. McKienzie came in to serve for the finals five points, which included two block and a final kill by Anderson to win the match.

Danbury doctor develops funny bone
Prescription for a healthier life: two Marx Brothers' films per week and nightly viewings of "Seinfeld."
Well, not exactly, but Danbury physician Mitchell Prywes, 56, who is trying his hand at stand-up comedy, said that laughter can have some serious health benefits.
"We do know that when we are happier our immune system functions better and when we are sad the opposite is true," he said.
Prywes, who has been practicing medicine in Danbury for 25 years, recently performed at the Ridgefield Playhouse as part of Christine O'Leary's Comedy Workshop. Prywes is a fan of legendary comics like the Marx Brothers, Mel Brooks, George Carlin, Jerry Seinfeld, Billy Crystal and others. He was drawn to the workshop in part because of his love of comedy.
"I have been going to The Ridgefield Playhouse for a long time and I kind of got to know her (O'Leary), then I heard about her class. I heard people had a lot of fun doing it," he recalled. "I have always loved comedy."
As part of the class, Prywes had the opportunity to perform his routine for a live audience, which gave friends, patients and colleagues a glimpse of the doctor's funny bone.
"He is a very serious doctor. That is why seeing this side of him was so enjoyable," said Bruce Pearlman, of Brookfield, a long time patient and friend. "The material he prepared showed you a very interesting side of the doctor."
Prywes' stand-up comedy debut took place at the playhouse on Nov. 24 and it looked like he had been doing stand-up comedy his whole life. A YouTube video of the performance shows him walking on stage to a round of applause, and then grabbing the microphone with one hand saying to the audience, "Ok, my name is Mitch Prywes and I'm a Jewish doctor. What are the odds?"
The audience responded with a round of laughter. With one hand casually in his pocket, the other gesturing to the side, Prywes later asked the audience, "Why do they call it practice anyway? After 25 years, shouldn't I have it down by now?"
The routine surprised some of Prywes' friends and co-workers.
"I've known him for quite some time and I have to say I was very impressed with his routine. He didn't share his routine with us ahead of time so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was very impressed," said Richard Roseff of Ridgefield, a physician and colleague of Prywes. "He was quite good. It looked like he had been doing it for quite some time."
Prywes graduated from The Mount Sinai School of Medicine's Residency program in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and in 1990 he established the Center for Pain Rehabilitation at 105B Newtown Road, Danbury. He also has training in Osteopathic Manual Medicine and Acupuncture. Prywes and his wife Ilene have two children, Bryan, 24, and Lisa, 20. A native New Yorker, he has been living in Danbury since the late `80s.
In the future, Prywes may take O'Leary's workshop again, as he still has more material to develop, but he's not ready to trade in the stethoscope for a comedy mic just yet.
"I kind of always admired comedy from a distance more than saying this is something that I'd want to do," he said. "I'm not ready to quit my day job, but it was a great experience."
Prywes has been known to tell a joke or two at the office.
"Sometimes my patients (the ones I've known for a long time) they tell me jokes and I'll tell them jokes," he said. He added that humor helps him form connections with patients. "We all like to laugh. I think that is something we have in common and in relating to patients it is important to find common ground. I enjoy the opportunity to combine humor with health and wellness whenever possible, both in clinical practice and when giving a lecture.
"In ancient traditions, laughter opens up the heart chakra, allowing one to experience more joy."

FrostyBowlz, an innovated approach to providing your pet with cool, refreshing drinking water, has developed a frostycore technology that keep water cool and pets hydrated and happy.
According to PetMD.com, in addition to serving a well balanced diet, providing enough drinking water is a vital part of your pet's daily routine to maintaining overall good health. Consuming the adequate amount of water aids in the digestion of food, helps the body absorb nutrients and also serves to cool the body while helping maintain a normal temperature.
Many parents believe that like their selves, their pet prefers drinking cold water – as many as 43% of pet parents will put ice cubes in their pet's dish to keep the water cool and encourage the pet to drink more. Understanding the important role water plays in keeping pets happy, healthy and well hydrated, the Talega® team developed FrostyBowlz®. Unlike ice cubes, this one-of-a-kind pet necessity keeps pets' water refreshingly cold all day long, even in direct sunlight.
The secret to FrostyBowlz® is in the FrostyCore™ technology (patent pending). Filled with a non-toxic freezable gel, the FrostyCore™ fits between the custom designed, high-quality stainless steel bowl and its non-skid bottom tray. Just pop the bowl's center core in the freezer overnight and in the morning place it in the bowl to instantly upgrade your pets' drinking experience. The FrostyBowlz® temperature control lasts between 12 and 16 hours – providing pets access to colder water as much as 6x longer than other methods.
Clearly, FrostyBowlz® is more than a creature comfort, it's made from durable, stainless steel that's easy to clean and dishwasher safe. And when the bowl's bottom plate is filled with a little water, the tray acts as a reservoir to keep pesky ants away. For more information on FrostyBowlz® visit their website to get the scoop on the bowl that serves pets better, www.FrostyBowlz.com.

The junk mail filtering has generally been extremely accurate. Current stats show 89.22% accuracy with 1.64 false positives, which is a MUCH better batting average than Sunbelt Software's iHateSpam program running on Outlook 2002 - my previous set-up.
But every now and then a great deal of spam gets through all of a sudden - as if the spammers are using a new trick to get by the filters. This has been occuring in the last few days with an alarming degree of success. For the spammers, that is.
Most troubling is the analysis offered by the Junk Filter dialog when I tried to train it for some new junk mail that got through, and then hit the Test button:
Message "Sweetheart wants a Rolex ?-webmaster extremum inaccessible cranky" would NOT be considered junk mail at any sensitivity. [XPS5]
+3 [X-MAILER=] (X-Mailer)
+2 [FROM=%ADDRESSBOOKS%] (From %Addressbooks%)
I immediately checked my address book to see if the From adddresses were getting added, but they're not. I checked the full header and it is not spoofed to show it's sent from me.
The message with full headers showing is pasted below, with my pertinent info (e-mail adress and IP info) changed and in red, as well as hyperlinks disabled. Nothing offensive, but if this isn't allowed, Moderator please feel free to remove or edit as necessary.
A lot of the recent spam is getting through and being scored this way. What are they doing to trick the filters into thinking the From address is in my address book, and has anyone found a way to thwart this?

What would happen if we were allowed to embrace the arts and not have to apologize for it? This pioneering work dares to chart a new path—one that stops justifying the arts as useful in teaching "core" subjects, and argues instead for the powerful lessons the arts can provide students. Davis is a cognitive developmental psychologist and founder of the Arts in Education Program at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. She provides a set of principles and tools for arts advocates and instructors already working to secure a strong place for the arts in education, and reaches out to those who care deeply about education but have yet to consider what the arts uniquely provide. She acknowledges and respects those who advocate for testing to provide assurance that students are learning as well as those who want students to have knowledge and experience that defies measurement and encourages thinking "outside the box" of standardized curriculum. Co-published with Teachers College Press.

Wade Robson: Michael Jackson Sexually Abused Meby Free Britney at .
Wade Robson is accusing Michael Jackson of sexual abuse, 20 years after it allegedly occurred and eight years after swearing it did not occur in court.
The choreographer, now 30, filed legal documents asking for money from the Michael Jackson Estate, on grounds of childhood sexual abuse.
He met Michael when he was 5. They became close. By the time he was 7, he had sleepovers at Neverland and MJ's homes in L.A. and Las Vegas.
The sleepovers continued until Wade Robson was 14.
In Jackson's 2005 molestation trial, MJ's former housekeeper, Blanca Francia, testified she witnessed him in the shower with Wade, who was 8 or 9.
Robson, however, testified in the child molestation case personally and denied that the King of Pop engaged in any kind of inappropriate conduct.
Now he's telling a dramatically different story.
Wade's lawyer filed documents May 1 asking the judge in the Michael Jackson Estate case to allow him to file a late creditor's claim against the Estate.
The claim stems from alleged "childhood sexual abuse" and the complaint specifically outlines the alleged abuse at the hands of Michael Jackson.
Robson's attorney also mentions a psychiatrist who treated Wade after the alleged abuse, likely to bolster the argument that he deserves compensation.
Robson has worked with top names in music including Britney Spears, *NSYNC, Usher and P!nk; he's also worked on So You Think You Can Dance.
He is believed to be the "other man" who Britney cheated on Justin Timberlake with way back in the day, inspiring JT's 2002 hit song "Cry Me a River."

OLYMPIA, Wash. — A gray whale that died after getting stranded on a West Seattle beach had a large amount of garbage in its stomach — ranging from plastic bags to a pair of sweat pants and even a golf ball.
Most of the whale's stomach contents was algae — typical of the bottom-feeding mammals. But Cascadia Research Collective, whose experts were among those who performed the necropsy, said "a surprising amount of human debris" was found, including "more than 20 plastic bags, small towels, surgical gloves, sweat pants, plastic pieces, duct tape, and a golf ball."
On top of all that, the whale "also had cuts on the head possibly from a boat propeller," the group said in a statement. It added, though, that "these did not appear fresh or deep enough to have been involved in the death of the animal."
Cascadia emphasized that no evidence suggested the trash was responsible for the whale's death, but added: "It did clearly indicate that the whale had been attempting to feed in industrial waters and therefore exposed to debris and contaminants present on the bottom in these areas."
Cascadia co-founder John Calambokidis, a biologist, said the debris was a reminder of human impacts below the water.
"Even with all our awareness and attempts to improve the Sound, there is still quite a legacy of our past behavior and current behavior that still exists down there on the bottom," NBC affiliate KING TV reported him as saying.
A local community college hopes to preserve the skeleton.
The 37-foot-long male beached itself last Wednesday. It was the fifth gray whale to have died this year in Washington state and the fourth in Puget Sound in April.

This unique piece of furniture presents brand new idea how to make your home a little private gallery. Based on an elaborate concept and a carefully planned study this unique artistic creation is a perfect combination of functionality, and the art of painting, sculpturing and design. The idea of combining these elements is definitely one of the most interesting and unusual ideas, which has not been seen before. The piece is made of wood, dressed in canvas, and oil painted. It is 3,8m in length, 2,15m max in height and 1m max in depth.
Enrich your interior design by painting can make your home design look wonderful and modern also art painting can change your wall color by artistic painting.
New, revolutionary design of unique pieces of furniture does not only pervade the space, filling it up with a soul of its own, but also creates a charismatic essence of the object of art itself. This piece is the fruit of work of two promising young artists; Klemen Benedik, painter and designer, and Tomaž Erzetič, sculptor and designer, both from Slovenia (EU). Elaborately planed furniture design and a tender, refined painting are the artistic soul and an added value of this unique piece of furniture, which moves one's heart by its very existence, suggesting and narrating its story.

Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: The market demand for organically produced rice has driven the steady increase in the acreage of organic rice in the U. S., with Texas and California being the largest states. Yield potential and disease management are among the principal challenges associated with organic rice production. We evaluated 27 rice cultivars and breeding lines to determine their responses to diseases and yield potential under organic production conditions in Texas over two years. Narrow brown leaf spot (Cercospora janseana) was a constant yield-limiting disease and was severe on Jazzman, Presidio, Sierra, and Cocodrie and its derived lines in both tilled, water seeded and no-tilled, dry seeded production systems. In the no-tilled production system with significant amount of previous cover crop residue, straighthead was another significant disease, occurring in all the cultivars and lines, with Cocodrie and its derived lines having the most severe symptoms. Brown spot (Cochliobolus miyabeanus) was also commonly present regardless of the production system used whereas sheath blight (Rhizoctonia solani), bacterial panicle blight (Burkholderia glumae), and leaf smut (Entyloma oryzae) were minor in severity on the majority of the cultivars and lines. The cultivars Tesanai 2, GP2, Rondo, PI312777, and PI338046 had the lowest levels of all these diseases and had yields that ranked among the highest. Tesanai 2 outperformed all other cultivars and lines in yield potential. These results can help identify the rice cultivars that perform best in managing diseases and increasing rice yield under organic management.

Graduate Council Meeting
October 31, 2013
I. The meeting was called to order at 2:05 p.m.
Voting members and alternates present were: A. Chamberlain, C. Cherrington, D. Cipollini, W. Dragon, K. Duffy, A. Goshtasby, R. Grandhi, M. Gruys, B. Hull, A. Jeyaraj, G. Kozlowski, M. Lee, J. McAlearney, W. Mosier, B. Rigling, M. Schultz, E. Self, J. Warfield, and B. Young.
Non-voting members, alternates and other attendees were: R. Ayres (chair), M. Brainerd, D. Curry, H. Dregalla, S. Foster, E. Gilles (scribe), L. Hong, J. Keferl, M. Mamrack, M. Ragas, and S. Watamaniuk.
II. Approval of Minutes It was moved and seconded that the minutes of the September 26, 2013 meeting be approved as written. Motion carried unanimously.
III. Report of the Interim Dean (R. Ayres) Fall Graduate Open House – The Open House was held on Wednesday, Oct. 16. The attendance number was 250, which is down a little from last year. The number of applications received was 175, which is also down a little from last year, but this number may be lower in part to the newly imposed limit of one free application per attendee. The yield rate for applications received at the Open House is historically high. Discussion: A suggestion was made to start the Open House later or extend the time later to better accommodate people coming from work.
Enrollment – (Presentation) Slide 1: The Marketing Issue – Domestic applications have been relatively flat over the past 5 years: up a little in 2008 due to downturn in economy; down a little in 2011 due to the impending switch to semesters; up a little in 2012 due to semester start. Slide 2: The Capacity Issue – The number of admitted students follows a similar track as the previous slide. Note that some programs cannot take additional students even if more applications are received. Slide 3: The Recruitment Issue – The number of enrolled domestic students is trending downward slightly. Slide 4: Yield Rate – The number of domestic students that have been accepted but are not enrolling is clearly trending downward in this slide (from 82% to 65%). Discussion: Is there a macroeconomic effect that would be apparent in a longer period of time? How does this data compare to other state universities? Can the unemployment rate be included in these graphs? Can scholarship dollars be included in the graphs? Slide 5: Marketing – Three marketing research surveys are underway: one is surveying prospective students (people who have shown an interest in WSU or who may just be interested in graduate education); one is surveying students who were accepted but did not enroll to find out why (lost to competition or decided not to start graduate school); and one surveys new students to see why they chose WSU. The information gathered from these surveys will be used to redesign the Graduate School's overall marketing strategy.
Announcements – The Graduate Program Directors Workshop will take place Fri. Nov. 15, 12-2:30 p.m. in E156 SU. A call for nominations for an outstanding alumnus from a graduate program will be emailed next week. A policy discussion for undergraduate and graduate certificates will take place before the next Graduate Council meeting. This discussion is being prompted by state-level discussions that certificates may be included in the SSI funding formula and also by the Higher Learning Commission.

The problem was, that when I called function from another source with messagebox api there, the code returned or something and the code which was under the function call didnt got executed. When i commented those messagebox functions in the source file, the code ran well without any problems. So i wanted to ask, is there something i dont know about messagebox function then, or why it acts like that?

A special group of veterans was honored this week by the people who helped provide their end-of-life care.
A special group of veterans was honored this week by the people who helped provide their end-of-life care.
Dozens gathered at the Jacksonville cemetery early on Wednesday morning for the Onslow County Home Health and Hospice belated Veterans Day ceremony. The service honored veterans the organization has cared for, both past and present. Caregivers, veterans and family members gathered as Home Health and Hospice employees reflected on how unique it is to care for veterans at the end of their lives, reflecting on stories shared over the years and how proud they are to know many of Onslow County�s aging veterans.
�It�s good that Vietnam veterans are finally getting the recognition they deserve,� said Army and Marine Corps veteran George Billet, 76, of Jacksonville. �When we were over (in Vietnam) we did our job like we were supposed to. It hurts me today to think of how we were treated, but people coming up to me now makes me feel good. My wife didn�t even welcome me back. It was really hard.�
Billet said that he shut himself off for many years, ashamed to tell people he served in the military. Today�s veterans, according to Billet, are much better off; but many people don�t understand what veterans go through each and every day.
For Army veteran Steve Hemby, 82, of Jacksonville, his service still makes him smile and feel good decades after he was discharged.
�There�s still a lot left to do for vets of all generations to be honored the way they should be honored,� he said.
The ceremony, Hemby said, showed the veterans that no matter when they served, they are appreciated, cared for and will not be forgotten � whether they know it or not.
As a member of the Home Health and Hopsice staff, Joseph Durgin, 26, of Wilmington said that no amount of ceremonies can ever express his gratitude for veterans and their service.
�Some veterans made the ultimate sacrifice so we can do things in life that we probably take for granted,� Durgin said. �I think it�s important that the veterans be honored and shown the respect they deserve because they provided us all with the freedom to be able to take those things for granted.�
Durgin called caring for veterans �very rewarding but very difficult.�
�It�s a learning process each and every day,� he said. �Depending on their diagnosis and quality of life it is very hard but overall they have a lot to teach us and it�s an honor to help them each and every day.�

Oakland Raiders assistant Randy Hanson claims he made a prediction right before fists flew at a now infamous coaches' meeting the night of Aug. 4.
"You know what's gonna happen there," Hanson recalls saying in a lengthy tell-all to Yahoo Sports. "Tom's gonna come out of the meeting and say I'm the problem, that I'm the one confusing them and blame it all on me."
And then Hanson says Head Coach Tom Cable delivered said blame with a body-slam into the furniture, death threats and enough f-bombs for a Scorsese movie.
U.S. & World
Randy Hanson is speaking publicly for the first time since the alleged brawl at Raiders' training camp, and gave a lengthy and detailed version of events to Yahoo! Sports. Hanson says a brewing interpersonal conflict between coach Cable and himself came to a head the night of Aug. 4, with Cable blowing his top and throwing Hanson's body across a room and into a cabinet.
"He was screaming, 'I'll f——- kill you! I'll f——- kill you!' And I have no reason to believe he wouldn't have killed me if they hadn't pulled him away," Hanson said. "If my head would've hit a different way, I might be dead right now."
Make no mistake. Those are the words of a man who is a plaintiff in a pending lawsuit.
Hanson also names names by telling who was in the room. He says defensive coordinator John Marshall and defensive assistants Lionel Washington and Willie Brown were present. He says they had to pull the enraged Cable off of Hanson. Marshall confirmed he had been interviewed by Napa Police, but told Yahoo! Sports, "I can't talk about any of this."
Hanson actually wore a Raider jersey to his interview session with Yahoo! Sports. Despite having his face allegedly rearranged by the Raiders' coach, Randy Hanson still remains a fan.
After Sunday's awful loss to the Giants, Raider Nation can relate to what it's like to get beat up and still keep wearing your Raider gear.
Joe Kukura is a freelance writer who is still trying to avoid any and all "scores and highlights" shows after Sunday's Raider game.

Soya chunk curry in a spinach and jalapeño base
There's a lady called Agnes in my aqua-fit class.
My mind has a tendency, even on an average and non-pool day, to go into overdrive and often feels like it's floating away with the echoes of the pool. Light and drifting. Sometimes sinking. Washing and leaving.
'Get those knees up HIGH, come ON ladies and gents!' and I wonder where it is all going to end up in 5 years' time. Oh my goodness, I've just realised how old I will be in 5 years' time. Am I focusing on the right things? Do we move or do we stay what of the house prices. I can't send him to school in this area, look at how much I have invested in him. Look at what it has yielded; he's so polite, smart, and sweet and never hits another child, ever. But what of those house prices. More work, move abroad, or to invest, what to do? 'Oh I am getting them up high, I have lots of practise, he he, he' yells Agnes. I laugh, with the group, in the present.
'Rocking horse AND TRAVEL'. What am I doing with this body, why haven't I been eating those iron tablets regularly, why haven't I removed this chapped nail varnish from my nails? I miss looking after myself, but that's a ridiculous thing to say. I should make more time. How long does it take to put some hair oil in my hair at night? Exactly. Some oil in the bath? Some lovely hand cream. And I need to eat better too, I need to cut those cakes out. I come from a family of diabetics; do I want to be one of them? No! 'oh, I love that rocking motion, you know what I mean!' chuckles Agnes, then there's a room full of echoes to the same tune, including mine.
'PUMP those arms, come on, PUMP, and PUMP' I need to get sink unblocker. I need to get the house sorted, I can't live like this, I'm going to go mad if I continue cooking in that kitchen, and it HAS to get fixed. I cannot believe the neighbours have built their entire extension without planning permission or even telling us. It's looking worryingly light-reducing. More paperwork to deal with, great. 'Oh I like it, I love it, I like a bit of pumping action, ha ha ha'…belly laughs all round, Agnes throws her head back.
We all need an Agnes in our heads don't we, well, I do anyway. Clearly.
Just like Agnes, I like it hot. This curry is hot, tangy, and fresh with green glory and has a tang! Again, I am sharing with you an unusual recipe, I don't think I have cooked spinach and jalapeno peppers in a curry in quite this way, but believe me…it works SO well.
Cooks note: I have used vegetarian chicken from the TKC brand available in wing-yip and it works fabulously. I have also used meet the alternative which is pretty good. I would not use those popular vegetarian chicken products that are made from mushroom protein for this dish.
400g soya nuggets
200g fresh spinach leaves, very finely chopped in a food processor
175g jalapeño peppers in brine, 100g pureed and the rest finely chopped
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
One medium onion, diced
Salt to taste
1 tsp. cumin seeds
1 tsp. coriander powder
½ tsp. garam masala
450ml water
1 tsp. cumin powder
½ tsp. turmeric powder
The juice of half a lemon
2 tsp. tomato puree
2 tbsp. cooking oil
- Defrost the soya nuggets per the packet instructions
- Heat the oil in a pan and add the turmeric, cumin and allow the seeds to sizzle. Then stir in the onion and salt then sauté until the onions have softened.
- Add the garlic and sauté for a further minute before adding the soya nuggets and coat them well in the tempering.
- Sprinkle in coriander powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and grow the tempering to a to a high heat over 30 seconds to a minute then pour in 250ml of water and stir in the tomato puree.
- Cook the soya until most of the water has evaporated; it should take about ten minutes.
- Add the spinach and cook the curry for a further 3-4 minutes.
- Add the jalapeno puree and the sliced jalapeno peppers and cook for a further 3 minutes before turning off the heat.

Young: Boston shows that those intent on harm don't need guns
There's nothing new about tragedies being spun for political gain. So it's hardly surprising, if still disappointing, that both sides in the debate over guns have been using the Boston Marathon bombing to score points. Some gun-control proponents argue that firearms are a far bigger public threat than terrorism. Meanwhile, defenders of gun rights say that the restrictive gun laws in Massachusetts, resulting in few guns in private hands, left residents helpless during the hunt for the suspects.
While posses of armed citizens may not be the best response to terrorism, in this instance, the lessons of the tragedy suggest that, at the very least, gun control is no panacea.
Some attempts to find an anti-gun message in the events that unfolded in Boston have been downright odd. As suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was captured, Derek Thompson, a senior editor at The Atlantic Monthly and adjunct professor at the Columbia School of Journalism, posted on his Twitter feed, "The only thing that stops 1 bad guy with a gun is 10,000 trained policemen and a 24 hour manhunt. Maybe time to rethink that one" -- likely referring to the National Rifle Association's "good guy with a gun" line.
But Tsarnaev was no mere "bad guy with a gun" -- authorities feared he might have explosives -- and there is at least anecdotal evidence that many good people in Massachusetts wished they'd had a gun to stop him if necessary.
Meanwhile, New Yorker blogger John Cassidy invoked the defeat of a federal bill providing for expanded background checks for gun buyers as cause to lament the folly of "a country that so vigorously confronts one source of death and destruction while turning its back on another."
Cassidy asserts that, partly because of gun politics, our society does not respond to shootings nearly as aggressively as it does to terror bombings: a perpetrator using "crude, homemade bombs" instantly becomes "Public Enemy Number One," with no manpower or intelligence spared for his capture, while a shooter with a semi-automatic rifle is dismissed as a lone nut.
But that's a flawed comparison. Surely, a mass shooter who had managed to flee the scene of the massacre would have become "Public Enemy Number One," and the focus of a manhunt as intense as the one that paralyzed Boston (as was the case with the Washington-area snipers in 2002).
Meanwhile, Cassidy seems oblivious to the irony of his own admission that the Tsarnaev brothers were apparently able to construct lethal bombs using pressure cookers, nails and recipes found on the Internet. If religious zealots can do it, so can disturbed individuals driven by more personal demons. Even if gun laws managed to keep all guns out of the hands of such people (which is doubtful: The Tsarnaevs illegally owned a gun), some would turn to homemade weapons.
While Cassidy believes a gun attack on the Boston Marathon could have killed a lot more people, that is far from certain. Indeed, in an area packed with police, a shooter might have been stopped almost immediately.
Tighter background checks for gun purchases may well be desirable. But they are unlikely to stop terrifying acts of extreme random violence.
America's gun culture has its dark side, some of it evident in post-Boston bombing discussions: Pro-gun activist Kurt Hoffman wrote on the Examiner.com website that the Tsarnaevs' ability to "shake the security apparatus of the United States" shows that privately owned weapons can still effectively protect against government tyranny. Responsible Second Amendment supporters should strongly reject such odious rhetoric.
But we should also be wary of rhetoric that turns a horrific act of non-gun-related mass violence into a pretext to denounce guns -- and to demonize responsible gun ownership.

Ashley Madekwe Raids Our Fashion Closet

In addition to Jerome Dreyfuss' slouchy Max Leopard Bag ($2295), Madekwe eyed Proenza Schouler's The PS11 Classic Textured Leather Shoulder Bag ($1950) in Bright Blue, noting that she would wear it cross-body style to add a touch of prep to her outfit.
When Madekwe's embracing her edgier sensibilities, Saint Laurent's Leather Ankle Boots ($950) in Red are the perfect finishing touch.
Madekwe showcased her affinity for the boyfriend jean when she turned up at our office wearing a pair with Chanel flats. She confirmed her love for the slouchy style when she picked the similarly slouchy Relaxed Straight Leg Jeans ($88) by Blank NYC.
A fan of the grunge trend for fall, Madekwe quickly fell for the Marc by Marc Jacobs Aimee L'Oeil Merino Wool Sweater ($280). "I would wear this with a really dark maroon lip, some ripped jeans, and Dr. Martens, " she says.
Madekwe first called out the swishy silhouette and studded detailing of Versus' Allover Gold Studded Skirt ($595) in Black, but she also liked the fact that she could "dress it down with a denim shirt and some brogues."
"A sweatshirt with leather sleeves is all me," Madekwe says, laughing, pulling AllSaints' Niro Top ($260) off the rack. "This would be a great everyday piece with skinny jeans, flats, or sneakers. You could definitely wear this in the evening as well."
Of all the jewellery pieces in our closet, Madekwe was most smitten with J.Crew's Spiky Rope Necklace ($128). "I love wearing really ornate embellished pieces with more dressed-down items," she says.
A good pointy pump, like Brian Atwood's Cassandra Pumps ($613) in Rouge Suede, are a staple for the actress. So what would she wear with them? Simply put: "Everything I own."
"Stripes are a great basic," Madekwe says. She immediately gravitated toward towards LNA's Ruby Tank ($84), commenting on its ability to quickly pull an outfit together. "This would be great with a red lip—very French," she added.
Not just any denim jacket will do for this British stunner. "Again, it's a basic with something special," she said about Versus' Jean Jacket with Studded Details ($625). "I love the embellishment and that it has that old-school '90s vibe."

COMMERCE CITY, Colo. – When the final 28 players concluded their Sueño MLS tryout at Dick's Sporting Goods Park on Sunday, Rapids youth academy senior director Brian Crookham told the aspiring youngsters, "Your job today was to make our job as hard as possible, and you excelled."
Within an hour of Crookham's speech to the group, the players sat before a live television audience and heard the names of six players chosen for the final selection in Los Angeles on May 9-12. Those players were Daniel Ontiveros, Brayan Arreola, Erik Barragan, Juan Hernandez, Brian Loaiza and Miguel Jaime.
Goalkeeper Ontiveros was listed right after Shane O'Neill on Topdrawersoccer.com, assuming people knew about him. If he outperforms Luis Aranzazu from the D.C. United tryout and the final netminder from the Los Angeles tryout next weekend, he'll win the Allstate "Good Hands®" top goalkeeper award - El Portero Allstate."
Sueño MLS: DC United academy scouts get more than they bargained for from well-traveled talent pool
Ontiveros plays for the Longmont United Soccer Academy north of Denver and Adams City High School in Commerce City, which at 1.9 miles away makes it the closest school to the Dick's Sporting Goods Park complex. In 2010, Ontiveros helped Chivas Guadalajara of Denver win the State Cup, and he minded the net for the Colorado Rapids U-16 State Cup champion team in 2011.
Arreola also plays for Adams City High School, but Tigres UANL is his club team. A midfielder with solid skills, Arreola moved from Mexico when he was five years old. He had to work during the last Rapids Academy tryouts and is thankful for a chance to train with the team (and miss a little school when he heads to the Sueño MLS finale).
Barragan helped Hernandez answer questions after the announcement, working like teammates that have been together for years. But they only met that morning. A defender, Barragan was one of six guys who drove from Garden City, Kansas for the tryout. He plays for GC Manchester and will be a sophomore at Garden City High School. At 14, he took his first shot at Sueño MLS in Los Angeles last year.
Hernandez, now 14, strained his left hamstring a week ago but worked through the pain for two days of tryouts. Playing for Poudre High School in Fort Collins and the Bootleggers in Greeley, Hernandez says Cristiano Ronaldo is his favorite player and considers teamwork to be the best part of the game. He didn't really need much help with translation, but working with his teammate seemed natural to him.
Sueño MLS: Six prospects headed to Los Angeles after DC United academy scouts make their picks
Loaiza lists Royal Palm Beach, Florida as his hometown, but Deportivo Cali in Colombia has been his home since February. The defensive midfielder completes his studies online through the Florida Virtual School while gaining great experience abroad. On a return trip for the Florida State Cup with FC Florida, Loaiza first heard about this year's tryout while watching Carlos Valderrama's invitation with his dad. They jumped online immediately, but the D.C. United event was already full so they preregistered right away and booked a flight to Colorado.
Jaime's recent honors include Denver Post/Max Preps Colorado Player of the Year, Gatorade Player of the Year and NSCAA All-American selection following his junior season at Cherry Creek High School in 2012. He scored 16 goals during his high school season, and he also plays for the Colorado Rush Soccer Club.
The 17-year-old from nearby Glendale meshed with teammates and kept possession on Sunday. He got the strawberry of the final tryout when he slid about 10 feet to save a ball from going out. For him, it was a small sacrifice for a much larger dream in Los Angeles in the second weekend in May.

Eileen Fulton is the original Diva of Daytime. As Lisa Grimaldi on As the World Turns, she has navigated uncharted territories and forged pathways for actresses who came after her — and she did it all on her terms. I spoke with Eileen recently about the time she spent on this venerable soap — 50 years in May, to be exact.
Daytime Dial: Did you have any idea when you first started on ATWT back in 1960 that you'd be celebrating your 50th anniversary with the show?
Eileen Fulton: Never! Not in a million years. I remember I screamed and hollered and yelled when they wanted me to sign a seven-year contract. I said: "Are you crazy? I'm not going to be here in seven years!" I wouldn't sign it. They had to get it lower, but I don't remember what I finally decided on.
DD: How has the soap-opera genre changed and evolved since you began all those years ago?
EF: Pardon the pun, but it was a world of difference. First of all, we were live and we were a half-hour show, and it was in black-and-white. We read the script in the afternoon, rehearsed, fought for our cuts and changes and blocked it. And the next morning, we came in and had a dress rehearsal, got our final notes and went on live. It was like doing a play every day. Sometimes there would only be four of us on the show that day; those were tough days. The stage managers would be offstage just in your peripheral vision, telling you to speed up or to stretch, and I would tell them, don't do that to me, because I totally forget where I am. We made a deal, they'd do all that to Don Hastings, because he could handle that and I could not. I couldn't even use a teleprompter; it takes you out of it.
DD: How are you and Lisa similar?
EF: Lisa is extraordinarily impulsive, like Eileen. That's about the only thing we have in common.
DD: Lisa is THE prototype of the daytime diva, which now every show imitates. How does it feel to be such a trendsetter?
EF: I am very proud of that. I really am. It's just terrific. The thing that really surprised me is people would come up to me and say, "I named my daughter for you." I'd think: "How could you name your daughter after my character? She's such a bitch." They'd say, "Lisa is a survivor."
DD: What are some stories from the early days of filming, while you were all finding your footing in this new way of telling stories?
EF: My first day on the set, I was supposed to meet Bob at the sweets shop for a milkshake. Being that I am a Method actress, I was supposed to enjoy it and tell him so. The prop guys were freaking out, because I actually drank it. What it was was shaving cream to really make it stand up tall and look really pretty. But I had to say how delicious it was. That really took some acting!
But the thing that really interested me was how they did it, how they got the effects they were after. For example, I loved it when we had snow, but you just didn't stand too close to the window, because it would come right through the window, because we didn't have window panes. The same for the rain; if you got too close, you'd get soaking wet. So later on, they finally put windowpanes in.
Stay tuned next week when Eileen talks about catching flak for instilling the infamous "Granny Clause," as well as how she's like to see the show end.

Interview (GH): Could Dante Falconeri Be Pulled Over to the Dark Side?
No one was more shocked than Dante Falconeri to discover that mob boss Sonny Corinthos is his father. However, his portrayer, Dominic Zamprogna, was ready and willing to play the good-guy son of Port Charles' resident bad guy.
Daytime Dial: When you first came on "General Hospital" as the character of Dominic, you knew you would end up being Sonny's son, Dante. How do you like that twist?
Dominic Zamprogna: My manager is a huge fan of "GH," and she told me this would be a huge part, because they had been looking to fill this character for years. When I got the script and it said "Dominic," I called the head writer, Bob (Guza), and asked what was going on. He told me that my character was going to be undercover as Dominic, but I really was Dante, Sonny's son. At first there were some nerves, because I wasn't sure if people were going to dig what I was doing. But the part has far exceeded what I thought it would be.
DD: Dante is having a rough few weeks — first he is shot and almost killed by Sonny, then he finds out Sonny, the man he's been trying to take down, is his father. How is Dante feeling about all this?
DZ: He's a little confused. He's still the same guy underneath, but he's being pushed and pulled in so many different directions. As far as his mother goes (with her keeping this a secret from him), that wound will heal a lot quicker. He's a smart guy; he knows his mother did what she did to be a good mom. But the hurt and pain of that will hang around for a while, because it is a massive betrayal. This thing with Sonny, it won't be an instantaneous "all is well" kind of thing. I think it is going to go on a long time.
DD: He must also be conflicted, because he was starting to develop a respect and a liking for Sonny, even though he's the bad guy and Dante is the good guy.
DZ: He's not a one-note guy. Things we are shooting now, I am making him a little less sure on the things he normally would never think twice about. Anytime he's going to be around someone, he's probably going to reach for his gun a little sooner. He's not going to trust. Now everyone else seems to have an ulterior motive, and he doesn't know who, apart from Lulu, he's supposed to trust.
DD: What will it take for Dante to accept Sonny as his father?
DZ: Eventually he could, because of that pain of not having that person in your life that you've wanted to have your whole life. To now find that person, if he hadn't shot me, it still would have taken a lot of time. But it would have been just that — constantly deep down wanting to be close to this man and wanting to acknowledge him as your father, just wanting to have a father. It obviously would have happened a lot quicker had he not shot me in the chest.
I think time is the main thing that will bring them closer — either time or a major occurrence.
DD: Dante has such strong morals and principles — how does that coincide with what his father does for a living? I don't see Dante being pulled over to "the dark side."
DZ: I honestly don't ever see Dante becoming bad. When I spoke with Bob about Dante, we were saying how he has this great sense of right and wrong, and morals and all that stuff. I don't even entertain the idea that he could become bad. If they decided to write it that way sometime down the road, sure, but I can't see it happening anytime soon. Another option would be for Dad to retire and not do illegal things anymore. But I don't think that's gonna happen either.
DD: The fans really love Dante and Lulu together, as well as your chemistry with Julie Berman. What is it that makes you guys click so well?
DZ: A sense of humor — we make each other laugh a lot. If you can make each other laugh, you are one step ahead. We have a mutual respect for each other. And she is ridiculously talented. It makes me happy to hear that people are digging it. It is so much easier to go to work with someone who brings it every day, and she does.

Indie RPG Unwritten: Echoes of Twilight.
Unwritten: Echoes of Twilight is a single player, open world, role playing adventure game that combines the visual appeal of modern graphics and animation technologies with the classic role-playing elements hardcore RPG gamers love. In modern games, immersion, interactivity, and customization are often watered down by major studios, resulting in diluted replay value and degradation of the role play nature of the games. As RPG gamers ourselves, Druid Gameworks understands all those fun nerdy things RPG gamers want to see, or do, and we plan to give it to them in spades.
In this precursor and introduction to the Unwritten series, players are introduced to the world of Arthanswold through the heartland isles of Aerendwel and Byre, where the diverse and often unforgiving landscapes range from perilous mountain passes to dark ominous marsh lands, and overgrown jungles. In a player driven adventure, you can explore the world in any direction you want your story to go! Unearth hidden locations, unique characters, and dynamic quests. Chronicle your adventure in your journal, taking real notes whenever something important crosses your path. Customize pets and companions, take ownership of shops, wield powerful ritual magicks, join factions to form friendships, and uncover the shards of an ancient mystery that echoes from the past.
So what is a player driven adventure?
Think of it as a choose your own adventure video game. Most RPGs out there today would be considered story driven, where a main quest line is presented as the overall premise for the game play. Even when its possible to delay the main quest, its not usually possible to avoid it and still progress within the game. In the Unwritten series, game play is player driven, meaning you create your own game experience as you play and develop your avatars story. As you explore our universe and make your choices you will lock and unlock different experience pathways with every play through.
Your consciousness stirs in an otherworldly place; all around you plays of light and shadow distort your surroundings in a shroud of mist. You can feel yourself lifting into the air, held aloft as if by magic, as a glowing form appears before you; so bright the only detail you can make out is the delicate outline of feathered wings. A distant voice echoes in your mind urging you to reach forward and it's only then that you notice the great husk of an ancient tree that seems to cradle you in the remnants of its tattered boughs. All along the carved wood, unfamiliar symbols ebb and glow. When you reach out and touch them awareness blooms inside you and you begin to piece together a plan for the future that awaits you. Again that haunting voice beckons you from within "You will be Unwritten," it says in hallowed reverence, "The fulcrum of our salvation or our destruction, we do not know, but pray you are not led asunder. Go forth into the world and write your destiny."
You awaken as if from a dream, the same dream you've had over and over again across the years of your life. Returning to the present the dreams fade away like the last shades of night withering before a rising sun. Today is a special day, your clan is preparing to celebrate your coming of age; a time of great change and a chance to make your way in the world.
Choose from one of six playable character races to design and customize to suit your vision for your avatar. Explore dynamic and changing landscapes, supernatural worlds, interact with rich characters and their unique stories. Recruit companions or join a faction to make new allies. Choose your path and write your story as it unfolds. Will you choose to be the hero? Or the villain? The everyman? The choice is yours and the possibilities are almost endless.
Druid Gameworks Studio LLC began back in 2010 when core members Cole MacLean, Jamie Ford, and Mark Buckley were two years into development on a 40+ gameplay hour expansion project for Bethesda's Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It was during that long collaboration that they discovered a shared passion for making great games. They began making plans to finish their major mod projects, and move into indie development with a new breed of RPG game. The first draft of the dev plan for the Unwritten series was born three years ago with these words "Make a better RP Experience for Immersion Players" and that remains our goal.
Today Druid Gameworks is a fledgling Indie Game Studio made up of several veteran developers from the Elder Scrolls Modding community as well as industry experienced developers. Combined we have over 50 years of game design credit and we're ready to put it to the test in our first commercial title. For more about Druid Gameworks, please visit our About Us page and take a spin by our F.A.Q thread. We'd love to hear what you'd like to see most in an open play RPG environment so stop by and tell us, We're Listening!

Glad to see you've relaunched your kickstarter. I hope it goes well, this game sounds great.

Jerad S. Marantz started his career at an early age interning for special effects houses. Trying a little of everything enabled him to narrow his focus to character design, creature design and costume concept illustration. His acquired skills in sculpture, painting, illustration, 3D modeling and Adobe Photoshop all aid his unique sense of design. Marantz' s many credits include Batman vs. Superman, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Rise of the Planet of the Apes,Noah, Clash of the Titans (Lead Designer), Sucker Punch (Lead Designer), Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Green Lantern, Snow White and the Huntsman,G.I. Joe: Retaliation, Riddick, American Horror Story,Grimm, Infamous 2 and others.
"I always look forward to Jerad's creatures. He's got a unique and realistic design style that is a great balance between fantasy and function. You believe these creatures were alive at some point. He has a raw talent and understanding of imagination, mixed with that human touch that you don't find in most creature designers. Jerad Marantz is a true and pure creature designer to the core, even before all the new technology. Look at his sketches and you can see it there first."

The SI prefix "mega" represents a factor of 106, or in exponential notation, 1E6.
So 1 megapascal = 106 pascals.
The definition of a pascal is as follows:
The pascal (symbol Pa) is the SI unit of pressure.It is equivalent to one newton per square metre. The unit is named after Blaise Pascal, the eminent French mathematician, physicist and philosopher.
The pound per square inch or, more accurately, pound-force per square inch (symbol: psi or lbf/in² or lbf/in²) is a unit of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch.
