The Timberview football team continues to impress in all facets of the game and is beginning to turn some heads among state pollsters.The Wolves moved to 4-0 on the season with a 34-7 victory against Grand Prairie last week and will square off with rival Mansfield at 7:30 p.m. on Friday at Newsom Stadium.Coach James Brown said he knows his team will have its hands full with the Tigers on Friday and said he expects for Mansfield to give the Wolves all they can handle."They are going to be a physical football team," Brown said. "They're going to run the football. They're going to pound it at us. With Julius [Lewis, running back] coming back, that was a big lift for them. It's going to be a challenge for us. We've got to ensure that we can bottle them up offensively."Timberview had a strong effort in its district opener against Grand Prairie on Friday night, but Brown said he did see a few things that could have been better."It was one of those games where we were a little flat," Brown said. "I think we may have been looking forward to Mansfield a little bit. Grand Prairie does a great job, and they have a great quarterback, but I felt like we had some opportunities we didn't make the most of."We were in the red zone three times against Grand Prairie where we didn't score. I felt like we still played pretty good defensively. We moved the ball pretty well between the 20s, but once we were inside the 20, we struggled a little bit. But that's part of the growth and development of our kids."Brandon Simmons had an interception return for a touchdown against the Gophers, making it the second straight week that the Wolves defense has scored in a game."The defense is unbelievable," Brown said. "They are enjoyable to watch as a coach on the sideline. They have done a phenomenal job. We've really limited guys rushing the football against us this year. We've been very good against the pass. People always look to Ed [Paris] and Brandon [Simmons], but the guys up front are controlling the line of scrimmage right now."[Alejandro] Anzaldua and [Samuel] Amaka at the DT, and [Michael] Badejo and [Dacion] Harris at defensive end, and the three linebackers of [Rashaad] Burton, [Brandon] Garner and [Jacob] Addison did a great job of controlling the box." Brown said, while his team has played pretty well in most areas, there are a couple of things he would like to see improve as the season moves forward.""I think that we have to do better on kick off coverage," Brown said. "We've got some concerns there. With the guys that lay in front of us in our district, we've got to improve in every aspect of the game." • Over at Mansfield, the Tigers defeated South Grand Prairie on Friday by a score of 14-7.Caleb Evans threw touchdown passes to Blake Shipman and Braylon Royal in the game and Lewis rushed for 105 yards for Mansfield.• Lake Ridge came up just short against Prosper, losing 57-42 on Friday night in a game running back Duke Carter rushed for 256 yards and two touchdowns.

Maintenance Franchise UK
Envirocare...the management franchise where the profits literally grow.
Envirocare is an almost unique opportunity in a growing sector which combines a profitable model, a low risk opportunity and a sustainable business with thousands of potential clients. As the economic landscape and the need for efficiency leads to growth in the outsource industry, businesses are turning to grounds maintenance providers where they may have previously employed their own people.
About the Grounds Maintenance Sector
The commercial grounds maintenance sector is a fragmented market with few organised national competitors. Your Envirocare business will allow you to run a business which is more professional and efficient than the local competitors and more personal and knowledgeable than the national players.
The Market
Clients come from the following sector
Hotels, Schools, Business Parks, Hospitals, Military Bases, Housing Associations, Offices, Retail Parks, Theme Parks, Sports Grounds, Motorway services, Heritage Sites, Petrol Stations, Restaurants, Public Houses, Care Homes, Nursing Homes, Solicitors, Local Council Offices, B&B's, Guest Houses, Parish Churches, Doctors Surgeries, Local Authorities, Car Dealerships, Supermarkets
What sort of person are Envirocare looking for?
Our franchisees employ operatives who visit corporate clients to provide a comprehensive grounds maintenance service. As a management franchise you will need to be hands on initially but you will spend most of your time developing the business in the Managing Director's role. The opportunity is based on repeat business from regular visits to business parks, hotels, schools, hospitals, offices and hundreds of other business locations. High client retention and a profitable model means the business can grow as quickly as our clients' plants do.

The unremarkable leather valise was much like any that could be purchased in Vienna, Austria, before World War II. However, its contents mark it as a singular piece of family, and national, history; one that Camilla hadn't spoken of much during her lifetime.

Keywords on deviations were built to be an important tool to help discover artwork. But as deviantART grows and strives to create new ways to discover great content, we've found that keywords as we currently use them have become underutilized. We think we can do better -- and can make a better experience for the community -- by making some changes.
In the coming month, keywords will transition into tags, and we'll be improving the way they work. Tags will better surface artwork, allow deviants to form communities around topics, make it easier to find other artists and art appreciators, and increase discoverability.
For example, if you're a fan of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles it can be difficult to know what to search for: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Ninja Turtles, TMNT, Donatello, etc. Public tags provide visibility to see how others are tagging their deviations, which will allow you to align your behavior to the norm, or choose to be deviant!
Keywords are changing to tags.
Tags will soon be publicly visible on deviation pages.
As a reminder, tags on deviations can be edited at any time. If you'd like to update your deviations before any changes are released, now's the time to do so! (Simply visit any of your deviations and click the "Edit" button. You don't need to add a hashtag before a tag, but you can!)
Do you add keywords to all of your deviations? Roughly how many do you typically add?
Do you base your keywords on medium, subject matter, or other things?
What keywords do you commonly search for?
Heidi. Female. American. Tall. Sarcastic. Athletic. Bossy. Financial enthusiast. Olympics lover. TV/fandom fanatic.
I've been fortunate to be involved with deviantART from day one and have held a variety of positions over the past thirteen years. Today, I'm deviantART's Vice President of Marketing.
I graduated college with a Journalism major and Political Science minor, and enjoy all aspects of news and politics. I can often be found watching Fox News, CNN, or CNBC during the wee hours of the morning.
When I'm not working, my hobbies include playing and watching almost all sports (basketball, softball/baseball, volleyball, football, tennis, etc.), traveling, geocaching, investing, and trying to be as funny as humanly possible. When it's time to relax, I'll turn on the television or read a book.
I also used to run GilmoreGirls.org, which was pretty epic during its heyday.
Current Residence: Earth
Favourite genre of music: Christmas songs, jams from the 80s
Favourite style of art: Pixel art, photography, fan art
Operating System: Windows 7
MP3 player of choice: iTunes
Shell of choice: Lobster, shrimp, clams
Favourite cartoon character: Bobby's World, DuckTales, Bionic Six
Personal Quote: I'm not stubborn, I just refuse to settle.
For her outstanding work with deviantART, Heidi is presented with the illustrious Bolt Award for 2008. Heidi is the embodiment of community spirit, dedication, and drive that makes deviantART what it is today. Her positive attitude and inspiring personality has been an influence on the formation of the site since the very beginning, and without her, deviantART would be a much duller and less magical place.

Sesame oil on potatoes tames BP: Blood pressure and diabetes are cited as an epidemic. If you wish to tame the pressure surge, eat a baked potato every day (skin on), and drizzle it with one ounce of sesame oil. According to a British research team, this filling treat could cut your blood pressure down at least 32 points. This happens because each potato is packed with 1,050 milligrams of pressurelowering potassium. And sesame oil is rich in sesamin, which is a rare plant compound that relaxes blood vessel walls, preventing blood pressure spikes.

Which one(s) do you use?
I use Xfactor and Acquisition
And where's the best place to look for torrents, I want to start to use BitTorrent.
I use bittorrent, emule, and DC++. For torrents I use www.isohunt.com and www.torrentspy.com
Azureus is probably the best rated torrent program. It has anonymous trackers, so it's a bit safer to use.
I like Shareaza.
It also has some useful plugins.Quote:

Anything good for the Mac for torrents?
I use Azureus for my torrent client, isohunt.com and torrentspy.com for the torrents.
On occasion I will use IRC or AutoXDCC from ircspy.com
Mostly though, I have a friend "on the inside" who can get me about everything I could want, from books to video games.
Azureus for torrents
aMule (Linux port of eMule) for everything else
Ares for common stuff like songs and video clips, and popular software like MS Office
emule for rarer things such as engineering apps, they also have all the family guy episodes from a season in a single download :cool:
Ares is faster but emule has a much larger selection of files.
Can someone explain to me how bittorrent works?
azureus is the best.
thepiratebay.org (check out the legal threats link. its hilarious)
Whats best for movies ?
Torrents are really slow for me VS P2P
"The inside" no longer exists, since the invention of p2p and BitTorrenting, it no longers any skillzzz or connection to get something... It's actually quite sad how easy people have it now days...Quote:

i use bit torrent, im goign to try azureus though
I've been using soulseek for songs...it takes forever to download but its pretty easy to find hard to find albums, but then I guess there not hard to find, right?
Well, I understand what you are saying, but he can get most albums, movies, etc, before they hit torrent, IRC, and p2p sites. Most of the times 2 weeks before they hit them.Quote:

My download far surpasses my upload speed. I limit my uploads to about 5k/sec since my upload bandwidth isn't very high, never stopped my downloads from hitting 500k/sec.Quote:

This new construction is not quite finished (Builder hopes to complete by approximately November 1, 2014), but if you wait until then, there'll be someone else's name on the mailbox. A 3 BR, 2 bath, luxurious ranch with a 2 car garage sitting on close to a half acre lot close to Jackson, MO. Featuring stone & brick front exterior, 12 X 9 covered deck, plus a large patio with a wood burning fireplace is ready to entertain family and friends on those chilly autumn evenings. As you enter the home through the formal entryway, the living room offers a breathtaking open concept , the living room is equipped with a corner, electric fireplace, vaulted ceilings and wood flooring. You will be very pleased when you realize the kitchen offers stainless appliances, wood flooring, hard surface counter tops and a large eat up bar. The actual dining area is situated by the french doors, that walk out to the covered deck. There is a split bedroom floor plan. The expansive master bedroom has vaulted ceilings, wood flooring, his & hers closets (one of them is a large walk in closet) and a pocket door that leads to the Master Bath. The master bath has a separate shower and a jetted tub. The other 2 bedrooms are also large. There is a main bathroom and utility room adjacent to each other. The full, unfinished walk out basement (which await your artistic abilities) could easily house 2 more bedrooms, a family room and is plumbed for a 3rd bath. The 3 bedrooms on the main level will all have wood flooring, the baths and laundry room will have ceramic tile. So the entire main level of the home will be equipped with wood floors (other than the bathrooms & laundry room, which will be ceramic tile). The wood flooring will add much character to the "open concept" of this home. This all electric home is equipped with a heat pump. At a successful closing, the builder will offer a 1 year builders warranty. You'll need to act fast, as the builder is only asking $219,900.
A Horse and Pony show can be yours as the owner of your own 30 acre +/- ranch, complete with a beautiful barn, tack room & corral. The acreage is fenced and cross fenced, plus has a 3 acres well stocked lake. The western-style ranch is definitely "show ready". There's a bright feeling with it's 4 bedroom, 3 baths, vaulted ceiling, sun-filled rooms, and a open concept floor plan. The vaulted ceiling encompasses the kitchen, living room & dining area. The country kitchen has stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, wood floors and crown molding on top the renovated cabinetry. There's an option to have mother-in-law suite in the finished basement, with it's own kitchen, living/dining room, bedroom, bathroom & even an office (which could be a 4th bedroom) and a convenient mudroom. The basement walks out to the patio, which overlooks the approximately 3 acre stocked lake. You will NOT believe the functionality of the barn, tack room and corral area...just waiting for you! The chiffarobe in the 3rd bedroom in the finished, walkout basement remains with the home. Back deck is approximately 12x40, storage room in the basement is about 15x15 and the metal shelving in the storage room remains with the home. All the bathrooms and the kitchen have been redone with tasteful style. This is NOT the time to "hold your horses" because it's priced to gallop off! Don't let anyone hold you up from seeing this ranch ready acreage & home.
Leave the hustle and bustle of city life behind....COME HOME TO THE COUNTRY! This 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath ranch home is not visible from the road, so there's maximum privacy. The 39.83 +/- acres of rolling hills has access to 2 ponds. The main living area of the home is mostly neutrally decorated and consists of: a 9 x 10 formal entry way with slate floor, formal living room, formal dining room, family room with wood burning fireplace, 3 bedrooms, including a large master suite that has a 14 x 6 walk in closet and French doors that lead to the deck. An extra bathroom measures 8 x 10 and it's located close to bedrooms #2 & #3. Bedrooms 2 & 3 share a Jack & Jill bath. A country kitchen, which is bathed in natural sunlight, has a breakfast or informal dining area. The mostly finished walk out basement consists of: large open game/recreation area, 2nd family room with a wood burning fireplace, a bedroom that has it's own vanity and walk in closet, and another bathroom, plus expansive storage areas. There is a barn/shop with oil change bay, and there's also a chicken coop. The lower part of the deck is wired with 220 to accommodate a future hot tub...wouldn't it be soothing to soak in a hot tub on the deck and absorb the glorious surroundings. This is the perfect location to raise-train & breed show horses! The surrounding area beckons you to make it your own!

Writing Time: Everlasting #80
by Nojh on Aug.05, 2014, under Writing, Writing Updates
Writing Session
Consecutive Daily Writing Count: 205
Magic Spreadsheet Points: 19,945
There was no actual writing session today. Or yesterday. Why is that, do you ask? Because I'm done. I finished the first draft of Everlasting, my very first novel. As of Sunday I wrote something like two hundred and fifty words and realized that there was nothing else left to write. I could have extended the epilogue I was writing to fill in the five hundred and fifty words per day I was up to but it would have been superfluous and forced.
So to celebrate I didn't write yesterday, save to do a little bit of design work on Video Board Game. I didn't write today, save to write this blog post. I wish I could say no writing left a great hole in my schedule but it really didn't. Using The Magic Spreadsheet, I was writing five hundred and fifty or more words a day, usually more, and on a good day I could knock that out in twenty minutes.
So yeah. Yay me! I've wanted to feel some serious elation over this but honestly the moment came and hen it was past. I've gotten congratulations from friends and family but for the most part it was just another thing. My writing friends understand and my friends who don't write are still encouraging. Each writer is different and I've known those who have finished three or four rough drafts of novels in the time it has taken me to finish this one. So I didn't have a party thrown in my honor when I finished.
Which is fine. I have a hard time celebrating it because I'm well aware that it is in no state to be called anything but a first and very rough draft. I even know major changes I would already make. Should I take up Everlasting again, I'd be doing much more search and taking time with my world building knowing where my story is going through the world.
Taking a vacation from writing the last two days also means I've lost my chain in The Magic Spreadsheet. But honestly I don't mind. It was a tool to get my novel finished. I'll use it again when I start in on a new novel, which probably won't be till NaNoWriMo this year. The intervening time, after a small vacation, will be dedicated to working on short stories, editing what I have of Free Writings and other short stories, doing more design and prototyping of Video Board Game, and maybe working more on my MTG organizer.
Everlasting Update
Novel Word Count: 263,276 (+54,758) [Days: 119] [Avg. Wpd: 461]
So it has been a long while since I updated. Honestly writing doesn't lend itself to updates without being forced. I supposed I could use a Magic Spreadsheet style to force myself to update weekly? Maybe yet I will do that. Regardless if you read above you know I finished the first draft of Everlasting. It has been four years, ten months, and two days since I decided to write a novel. Not all that time was focused on Everlasting. In fact I didn't finish the first NaNoWriMo that started the entire thing and even that NaNoWriMo only produced a partially completed world bible. So it's really only fair to say it has been two years or so. Maybe two and a half? The last year, or rather the last two hundred and twenty days or so has been the real push, doing the daily writing, a majority of it going towards this novel with only a few days to short stories or just ramblings.
So Everlasting will be trunked. I doubt the world will be. After all there is still Werewolf Zombie Steampunk, the prequel novel that should also never likely see the day, and Monster Hunters, which might be set in the same universe, if not the immediately same time period. I also could see some other stories focus on just Captain and Steampunk Sky Pirates or something similar. And there's always the chance I'll want to re-write Everlasting. Actually, I do feel like I want to re-write it. I know I shouldn't. I should feel elation and being able to put it down, but I do think I want to revisit Everlasting sometime soon. So perhaps we'll see.

Other (Non-Writing) Projects
Video Board Game
Since I didn't do any serious writing, I found myself adding to my design document several times over the last few days on this. The design document has gotten rather unwieldly and I might be discarding it here soon. And by that I mean starting a new one and copying over good ideas. I'm still having difficulty figuring out how best to mange my brain storming of this game and get the ideas down. Google Docs is great for access but not very good when I want to convey visual ideas or move things around. I could start a scrivener project for better modularity of organization but that doesn't help my visual problems much either.
I may resort to pencil and paper. I lose the ability to easily edit and organize but I gain near infinite visual capability, limited mostly by my drawing skills, which aren't stellar but I play on improving that as well. I seem to remember the creators of Scrivener released a brain storming tool. This might be a time to try it out…

Bring Reading Rainbow Back for Every Child, Everywhere
LeVar Burton is attempting to raise funds to re-start Reading Rainbow as a multi-pronged internet venture, targeting tablets and the internet. Which seems incredibly smart to me. I've seen the recent upcoming generations and at least a good portion of them are being weaned on tablets. Being on the web will make it very accessible for schools to incorporate it in the classroom. Not that this campaign mentions it, but this could also be the step to getting it back on television.
Either way, look it over, and see what you can afford. This is definitely one of those projects worth donating to.

Muzzled the Musical
Never mind the premise, which seems both silly and awesome, the music is super catchy and the cast list is full of amazingly talented and funny people. Kevin Sorbo (Yes, Hercules/Captain Hunt), Lisa Foiles, Ashly Burch (Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin'), Jeff Lewis (The Guild), several actors from the Lizzie Bennet Diaries, which I've never seen but is supposedly hilarious and awesome, and many more.

LED Solar Paneled Roads, Driveways, Parking lots
by Nojh on May.23, 2014, under Articles, Culture, Design & Development, Science, Technology, Visual Media
So here is a hilarious video about a technology someone is developing that needs some financial support.
Personally I'd love to see this, or something like this, instituted. We are at a time where technology can solve a significant amount of our problems but we're being held back by commercialism and the need to make a profit. For profit corporations, who have the capital do things like this, can't because it wouldn't be economically feasible, but we, as a society, can use crowdfunding to give money to the people who are willing to make today and tomorrow a better place, even if they don't make a profit.
That isn't' to say I'm not hesitant myself. Their prototypes honestly look kinda ugly close up, and the LED idea is really neat but I'd like to see actual pictures of the LED system, in broad daylight, and up close. But when I think about it, asphalt really isn't all that pretty either. And there are questions of maintenance. How often will streets need to be cleaned to keep them energy-efficient, for example? Plus there are people who staunchly feel solar technology is the savior people like to make it out to be. What happens when newer technology comes out?
The best I can say is that these questions will be addressed, or this will never catch on, but we won't find a perfect solution, nor any solution without trying. Solar panel technology been progressing steadily in both efficiency of energy gathering and efficiency of cost over the last decade. The proposed hexagonal system appears modular enough to be upgradable as newer breakthroughs are made. Cleaning might be easily done with current street sweeping technology.
Ultimately I think this could be a significant investment in the future, and it is worth taking a gamble on.

Writing Time: Everlasting #79
by Nojh on Apr.08, 2014, under Articles, Writing, Writing Group, Writing Updates
Writing Session
Word Count: 365
Consecutive Daily Writing Count: 89
Magic Spreadsheet Points: 3,908
Been a while. Sorry about that. As you can see I've added two new metrics. Consecutive Daily Writing Count (CDWC) is how many days consecutively I've written at least two hundred and fifty words. It's related to the Magic Spread Sheet I talked about last post. Which brings me to Magic Spreadsheet Points (MSP), which is how many points I've earned from the sheet. Like I Should Be Writing, the game is real but the points don't matter, but I felt like reporting them anyway.
Today's writing session has been relatively easy. I'm actually at writing group today for the first time in a few weeks. Sadly being able to write every day has lessened the value of going to a place to write with people but I was still looking forward to it all day. It is also good to connect with people who share a similar hobby at least.
One thing that has fallen to the wayside with the writing every day and not attending writing group is the Weird Words column. I apologize for that. It will likely make a return at some point but not this or next week, quiet likely.
Everlasting Update

The end is in sight and it is amazing, and sucky at the same time. I'm so close to finishing and I'm still seeing problems and plot holes as I write out my outline. I'm following the outline closely, only deviating a little. At this point I'm only writing down inspiration notes which I think would make really good ideas but this story will require a significant rewrite.
Same old same old, I know.
A few characters have died and I have a better idea of how airship docks work in my world now, at least. Dead people is progress right?

DC Charter Leaders and Educational Experts Discuss Common Core Standards and Student Achievement
As new Common Core standards are being implemented in school districts across the country, DC's charter authorizer, the Public Charter School Board (PCSB), and Fight For Children, hosted a day-long symposium, "Ahead of the Curve: What Leaders Need to Know to Implement Common Core State Standard in DC," aimed at giving school leaders the tools needed to fully integrate these programs and policies into curricula and instruction. PCSB's Executive Director Scott Pearson welcomed charter school leaders, educational experts and thought leaders. After the welcome participants discussed ways for school leaders to fully align Common Core goals with the DC Comprehensive Assessment System (DC CAS) that could ensure each student's success.

I see a lots of happy children. I went on a tour to see this school and I want to add that this was the third school I had visited. The staff was very pleasant and the children appeared to be excited about the lesson that was being presented by the teacher. I'm a teacher as well so it's important to me that my child is happy in her school. I went home and discussed this with my spouse and we decided to enroll our child a week later. It's been 5 months and my child just adores her teacher and this school.
Great School. My niece attended this school and she loved it, now she's almost 11 yrs old and still remembers her teacher Ms. Anahit. Fast forward to this morning, my twins just started to attend this school. Guess what? Ms. Anahit welcomed them with open arms. Ms. Angela provided a wonderful place away from home for kids. Ms Anahit and Ms Jennifer are very nurturing!
Great school. Excellent Management/Excellemt teachers /Excellent curriculam /Excellent public relation. and mostly Excellent education Very safe school with the great tuition rates. What else can I say . I love this school all my three children attended and they are doing so great .
My son loves this school and he learned a lot such as oral,writing,communication and behavioral skills from the preschool . Miss Angela is wonderful and guided him and us from day one . My kid likes it there and it feels like family to send him to the school.His skills from the preschool made him an outstanding student in the next level of schooling. Highly recommend this school and he was in the school for 2 years.
My daughter attended this school for 3 years and it has been a home away from home for my daughter. It was definitely a place where I could leave my daughter and know that she would be safe. Also her teachers Ms Roxanne and Ms Jasmine have been some of the best I have seen.They work hard with the kids, think of innovative ways to help them learn(my 5 yr old reads at 2'nd grade level). The principal Ms Angela is the perfect blend of warmth and discipline. The kids behave at their best when she is around or they know they would be sent to her office.! In addition the school also has other activities that the kids could be enrolled in like music,dance & compters. I gave it a 4* and not a 5 because I would have definitely liked a better equipped play area.
Both of my children have attended this preschool. It is absolutely top-notch, especially for a preschool. Ms. Angela, Ms. Gina and Ms. Lucy care so much for the students and it shows. You won't regret your children spending time here in this safe, educational environment.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Once someone's joined a raid group for something, you owe them the courtesy and respect of not replacing them on a whim. My guild usually PUGS 5 people or so for raids these days (mostly because of recent work scheduling conflicts amongst some of our players... the economy sucks). Once someone's in, they're in... unless they totally suck and give us a good reason to boot them and look for a new player.
I know there have been a few cases (i can think of two over the past few months) where RL got in the way of raids and i logged in half an hour late or more. Sure, the raid was still going on, but i didn't expect to get my slot - that would just be rude. Now, in both of those cases someone had to leave early and i got in for the last few bosses that way, which is nice, but they certainly weren't asked to leave or booted.

Surviving the Holidays with Little Kids
While the holidays are an exciting time for children
and adults, they also can bring out the worst behavior
in everyone. The holidays can stress you out so much
that you forget to have a good time and enjoy your
Many families are stretched too thin during the holiday season. Even young children can sense added stress in the family. If you are uptight, more prone toward yelling or punishing your children, or are unable to give your children some undivided attention, your
children may act out as a result. Late nights and the
frenzy of visiting friends and family may make your
normally reasonable toddler or preschooler prone to tantrums and whining. Taking your children's needs into account
and planning in advance for possible behavioral
problems can minimize family stress.
Getting a Handle on the Holidays
Here are some strategies for coping with schedule
changes, exhaustion and other problems that can cause
children to act out:
- Make an effort to provide some structure for your child. Maintaining the familiar routines that
surround bedtime, meal times, and daily activities
enable young children to deal with the excitement
of the holiday.
- Set aside time exclusively for your children each
day. If you are preoccupied and unavailable, your
children may act out to get your attention. For
example, plan to choose a Christmas tree together,
go shopping as a family, play games or watch a
video together.
- Be aware that children (and adults) who don't get
enough sleep can be testy. Avoid late-night
outings if you can help it. If not, prepare yourself
for some whining or other difficult behavior. Be
sympathetic, rather than annoyed or upset.
- Be honest with your children about your own
feelings. If you are feeling pressured, uptight or
overburdened, tell them. Ask for their help or tell
them you need to get away for a walk or need a
time out in your room. If you do get upset and
yell, apologize and move on. It's important for
children to understand that you are human and
make mistakes, but that you can admit your
mistakes and ask forgiveness.
Don't sweat the small stuff. Minor issues will
arise. Assess whether it's really important, or
whether you can ignore it. If you are concerned
about gift-receiving etiquette, talk to your children
in advance about appropriate behavior. But don't
let societal pressure cause you to be harder on
your children than you normally would be.
Remember, children often don't mean to hurt
feelings. They simply say what they think.
Put your family–not your chores for your
family–first. Remember that having perfectly
prepared meals or perfectly wrapped gifts or
perfectly decorated trees is not more important
than creating great family memories. Holidays are
for enjoyment and doing with family and friends.
Relax and let go or share some of the little jobs.
Think of all the jobs you do that little hands would
- scrubbing potatoes
- decorating paper place mats
- mixing turkey stuffing
- putting stamps on or sealing cards or
- stenciling window decorations
- decorating the tree
- There's no end to the number of jobs you can
delegate to your energetic elves. Even if they
don't do the job as you would have, you'll see their
faces glow when you praise them for their
creativity and helpfulness.
- Plan time just for togetherness. For example, take
a walk or ride around town to see the lights and
cut your own Christmas tree.

The Author as Autarch
In their very interesting draft paper that Dan mentioned, Professors Bradley and Froomkin suggest that virtual worlds might be testbeds for legal rules. However, with regard to experimenting with intellectual property, they aren't so sure that virtual worlds are a good fit. They say:
Like zoning, intellectual property involves complex technical issues in the real world that a game could not test.
This may be true, but a bigger problem with using virtual worlds as testbeds for experimental intellectual property rules is that virtual worlds are intellectual property. Putting aside trademarks, patents, and other relevant forms of intellectual property, software is protected by copyright. The copyright is not just limited to a game's source code and object code, but also extends (to an unclear extent) to other salient aspects of the program.
With regard to intellectual property rights in avatars and MMORPGs, Ren Reynolds, Molly Stephens, and Dan Miller have all looked at the issue. And Joseph Beard has a funny and well-written piece that isn't directly on point, but is worth reading to understand the greater context of virtual property rights. I'm not going to foray into the legal issues here in a blog post -- I'll just say that IP issues in virtual worlds are very complicated and, as a practical matter, much depends on the language of click-wrap licenses and the degree to which those licenses might be enforced.
What I did want to say is that we should bear in mind how intellectual property issues and governance issues in game spaces overlap. T.L. Taylor has a very interesting article re ownership in Everquest, that demonstrates how governance and IP ownership issues can be intertwined. As Taylor and others have noted, it can be argued that the participants in MMORPGs are like actors who give life to the world. But even if that is true, huge investments of creativity (as well as money) are made by the designers (and corporations) who set the MMORPG stages for the actors, and then market, distribute, maintain and improve them.
Dan and I pointed out in our article that analogizing virtual worlds to real life legal regimes is problematic because we don't usually need to credit our elected officials with the authorship of our worlds, whereas we usually accept the fact that authors and artists "rule" absolutely the worlds they create. (Admittedly, some fan feedback websites to the contrary.) Therefore, seeing games as akin to governments, while it may be appealing at first glance (especially to players) is hard to reconcile with the rights of authors. Pavel Curtis suggested that in virtual worlds, dictatorship is inevitable. It will be interesting to see, therefore, to what degree democracy, authorship, and intellectual property can reach a market equililbrium as these environments continue to develop.
Comments on The Author as Autarch:
Pavel was the first of the developers who had to confront issues of legitimacy and ownership within worlds. That is, the conflict between the sense of being a member of a community while realizing that d4 m4n 0wnz j00.
It didn't help him (though it has, I think, done us all a huge long-term service) that his world was built to encourage community and novel governance forms. I don't think it's too much to say that the future of VWs is the history of lambdamoo.
As he reflected back on the experience, he made the obvious but difficult point:
"Deep in its very structure, LambdaMOO depends on the wizards and on the owner of its machine. These are not and cannot be purely technical considerations. Social policy permeates nearly every aspect of LambdaMOO's operations, and only the wizards can carry out those operations. As a result, the wizards were at every turn forced to make social decisions. Every time we made one, it seemed, someone took offense, someone believed that we had done the wrong thing, someone accused us of awful ulterior motives. It felt a bit like the laws of thermodynamics: you can't win, you can't even break even, and you can't get out of the game." http://www.techtv.com/screensavers/print/0,23102,3388608,00.html
A lovely last analogy that hasn't been lost on current commerical developers. Their approach will continue to from the "All Your Base Are Belong To Us" School of Democratic Governance:
"And now the fine print: As with all of your other contributions to our Web site, we own whatever you write. We can change it or delete it any time we feel like it, for any reason. And we can block you from access if you piss us off enough. So, don't. Thanks." (From the TriadCity MUD Terms of Service)
Every one of my (business-law oriented) colleagues is convinced that a well-drafted terms of service contract is the complete answer to any problem that VWs present. One part of me says that they're probably right, and the other part of me says this is just an insufficient answer. I honestly believe that Terms of Service are the work of Satan, and that the lawyers who draft them will be spinning on the Rotissirie-Of-The-Endlessly-Tormented-Soul for all eternity in the Inferno.
As Greg knows I don't pretend to have an answer to his observations. It's early days yet, and I don't think we've thought about the implications of this enough.
Posted Sep 21, 2003 7:50:56 PM | link
"Their approach will continue to from the "All Your Base Are Belong To Us" School of Democratic Governance"
Agreed. They will continue down this rickety path.
On one hand how can we not expect the game companies to try their hand at "all your base are belong to us" licensing when they get assaulted on all the legal fronts, from IP to Freedom of Speech.
On the other hand how can you not expect users to push back when they get the Draconinan treatment, are told nothing they do in there is really theirs, not even for an instant. What if they have a chat discussing a new invention of a Bird Diaper ( http://www.delphion.com/details?pn=US05934226__ ) and subsequently apply for a patent. Does this also belong to the game developer? How far does this go? Are you considering me your employee and the game is my workplace??
Evidently this field needs some clear-cut laws to afford users with a modicum of certainty against increasing abuse of EULAs as well as give game companies more freedom to focus on their games, not lawsuits.
Posted Sep 22, 2003 1:34:25 AM | link
As you'll see from the trackback above (isn't trackback neat?), Professor Froomkin has disagreed with part of this post on his new blog:
"While it's certainly right that there are some IP obstacles to using existing games as research tools, if one is setting up a set of parallel games to serve as testbeds for legal rules then rather than be subject to IP constraints one is actually aided by them. Our suggestion is not that experimenters should colonize existing versions of Ultima Online or something and run trials on them. The idea is to purchase the rights to an existing game engine, customize it, and then run parallel versions of the game, or perhaps to license some shards/facets of a game and customize them. Any serious attempt to use Virtual Worlds to test legal rules will require careful design, and a control group. The IP issues will get sorted as part of the design process."
First: In my pattern of "wow--people are reading this!" comments, it is wonderful to have Prof. Froomkin visiting Terranova.
But while Prof. Froomkin may disagree with me, I don't disagree with him. My discussion of governance wasn't my real concern about experimenting with IP in these environments. Actually, I did not say what my concern was, so here goes: IP already is virtual. A poem or other form of IP composed by an avatar is not a "virtual" poem -- it is a "real" poem. So there is a potential here for jurisdictional conflict, because, as the VW EULAs clearly indicate, real IP laws don't stop at the borders in this case.
And the EULAs, I also might observe, constitute an interesting "real life" experiment in the degree of participant investment you'll find under the "all your base" terms. It will be interesting to see if anyone might experiment with another approach.

In connection with this subject, I summon the following articles.
#"Volunteer revolt" by Janelle Brown
#"Gargamel's Revenge" by Misty "Former SRC Hamlet" Matonis
I'm wondering what is happening with regard to this case.
Posted Oct 8, 2003 10:07:53 AM | link
It seems to have petered out, I remember a rumor that it had been settled, but can't find any confirmation. But the effect of the case (and the related AOL volunteers suit) was to pretty much close off volunteer programs as an option for US-based games. UO and AC have both shut theirs down, and no new game is making much use of volunteers. EQ may still be running their Guide program, and there are very small-scale player feedback organizations in AO and Camelot.
US labor law makes it very difficult (and potentially disastrous) for a commercial organization to use volunteers on any significant scale.
I get the impression that this is not the case in Asia?

Somewhat related to this subject..
WEMADE vs. SANDA
A Korean gaming company,'WEMADE' sued a Chinese company,'Sanda'for copyright infringement/breach of licensing agreement in PEKING district court last month.
WEMADE that developed the Legend of Mir(a korean word means dragon)2. gave a license to SANDA for doing service the game in China.
As soon as the licensing term expired, the SANDA launched its MMORPG named . then conflict between two companies occurred.
Major issue is whether SANDA had stolen the player database(which contained character's status, record of item, etc.)of Legend of Mir to facilitate chinese playes' emigrating into its game.
There is a Korean proverb that says a shrimp is crushed in a battle between whales.
While each company claims rights of the player database respectively, the interests and privacy of players are ignored and untoched.
Background of the confict is as follows.
Unggi Yoon
No Fair, China! Korea Will Tell on You!
Korean game developers are having a rough time gaining a foothold in the Chinese market because the Chinese are big fat cheaters:
As the situation is getting complicated, some game developers in Korea are even considering pulling out of the Chinese market - once and for all. The reason: Chinese partners cannot be trusted.
According to domestic game developers, some Chinese partners are forcing Korean firms to disclose source codes and handle all sorts of service glitches. In extreme cases, Chinese partners are refusing to pay licensing fees, dealing a blow to Korean game developers.
Among the downtrodden are Wemade Entertainment (Legend of Mir II) says that it is owed some 5 billion won by its Chinese partner Sanda, but hasn't received any payments in three months. In addition, Sanda has demanded that Wemade turn over its source code. Webzen has tried to get into China, but has experienced problems with payment systems. CCR has had some luck, but is delaying a new version of its game in China because the system is unstable. Hunh. Who'd have imagined that working in the world headquarters for software piracy would be so tough on game developers?
