Diving into integrated communications
Kirstie Russell jumped right into her master's studies in integrated communications. Munich. Berlin. A semester long practicum with Liz Lapidus Public Relations, a large boutique firm in Atlanta. The pool. And soon, she'll be climbing out into an exciting career.
A road less traveled
Every year, many undergraduate students receive funds from the Magellan Scholar program to conduct research based on community and service. Three students from the School of Journalism and Mass Communications share how those funds have helped them study the topics they love most.
Art from a boring product
It is difficult to make an interesting photo of a simple, everyday object, especially if you can't add colorful props or backgrounds. In Dr. Keith Kenney's advanced photography class, students could only vary camera-to-subject distance, angle, composition, focus, depth of field, and lighting.
Student wins Southeast Emmy
Ashleigh Holland won a Southeast Emmy in the University Student News category for "Empty Gun Holsters," produced in her senior capstone course, Carolina News. It also won first place awards from the Society of Professional Journalists and the Radio Television Digital News Association of the Carolinas.
Serving up success
The newest varsity sport at USC is sand volleyball, which features two J-school freshmen who attribute their early success to communication skills developed in the classroom. Standout student-athletes Jade Vitt and Morgan LaVigne have become successful leaders on and off the court.

ACLU Files Lawsuit Against Baseless Border Laptop
suraj.sun (1348507) writes | more than 4 years ago0
suraj.sun (1348507) writes "ACLU Files Lawsuit Against Baseless Border Laptop Searches:
ACLU and other groups have filed a lawsuit challenging the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) practice of searching laptops and other electronic devices at U.S. borders.
The lawsuit, filed Tuesday by the ACLU, the New York Civil Liberties Union and the National Association of Criminal Defense Layers (NACDL), challenges a 2008 CBP policy that allows border agents to search electronic devices of any traveler, without suspicion of wrongdoing. In some cases, border agents have copied the contents of the devices or confiscated them. The lawsuit asks the court for an order prohibiting searches of electronic devices at borders without a warrant and probable cause or reasonable suspicion of criminal activity.
The border laptop searches violate the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures, the ACLU has alleged. CBP has established a "constitution-free zone at the border," Crump said in a video the ACLU released ( http://www.aclu.org/free-speech-technology-and-liberty/railroaded-unconstitutional-border-searches ).

Street Wise Small Fry 8 Million Volt Black Stun Gun (Rechargeable)
It isn't the voltage that makes a stun gun powerful, it's the amperage. But it's the voltage that makes it intimidating, and sometimes, that's all you need. The Street Wise Small Fry Stun Gun has an impressive 8,000,000 volts and a high utility LED light. The Small Fry has a built-in charger, no need to worry about batteries. To charge, simply slide prongs out and plug unit into receptacle/outlet. The disposable pin serves as a safety device so an attacker can't use the gun against you. Simply attach the lanyard to the pin and slip the lanyard around your wrist. To use the stun gun, the pin must be inserted, the safety off and the button pressed. This stun gun comes with a nylon holster for belt carry, or can be safely carried in a back pack or purse..

Here is a video from a live performance at Spectrum of my song Cosmovisión featuring the amazing ensemble, et al.
New Collaborations
I'm really excited to share a new collaboration with the amazing ensemble, et al. this Saturday May 3rd at Spectrum's monthly Crossfade Series curated by composer/performer Matt Marks.
I'll be playing a solo set of my recent songs from my latest project "Angélica Negrón y los Objetos Maravillosos" and will be joined by ensemble, et al. for a very special version of my song "Cosmovisión" which will be performed entirely live (no electronics) for the first time ever! ensemble, et al. will follow playing a set of their delicious tunes from their newest album Present Point Passed which you can listen to here.
More information about the show here.
Rapid Ear Movement (REM)
Now in its fifth year, The Music of Now Marathon, "a massive gathering of adventurous musicmakers"(Time Out New York) continues to be a destination for the newest sounds on the musical landscape. This year, join us for a sonic dream journey with an electrifying range of soloists and ensembles. Like the vivid dreams of REM sleep, Rapid Ear Movement explores varied musical scenarios, lucid–and irrational– interpretations, and unexpected and inexplicable events.
I'll be performing at this year's Music of Now Marathon where I'll premiere a new song cycle "La Búsqueda (The Search)". This new work is comprised of three new electro-acoustic songs that explore the mysterious disappearance of a girl in an unknown town. The amazing percussionist Shayna Dunkelman and my good friend multi-instrumentalist and folk musician Enrique Bayoán will join me on stage. This year's line-up is truly unbelievable so come out on Saturday!
Fore more information, full schedule and to buy tickets please visit the following link:
New sounds!
A few weeks ago I was very lucky to share the bill with Jóhann Jóhannsson at Le Poisson Rouge.
Now you can listen to both sets here thanks to Q2!
And here are some pictures from the event thanks Pop Matters!
The Un(Natural) Course
I wrote a little something about my delayed instincts for janus trio's new awesome composer-centric blog "mouth-piece". Check it out here!
Tomorrow I sing with the amazing vocalist Kamala Sankaram my piece Mi Lumia (poem by Oliverio Girondo) at Opera on Tap's upcoming show "New Brew Gets a Brazilian". This piece was originally for three recorded voices but I made a special arrangement for two voices for us to sing tomorrow. It's the first time I sing something that's not a song. I'm nervous.

One day a worker denied me to take a photo of him because his job was poor and it wasn't beautiful. I tried to insist, trying to let him understand that his white suit and his gentle movements were so elegant that he seemed a statue. He didn't answer to me anymore and he went away. I started thinking about work, about jobs in general. There're few people that works for passion. But there're a lot of sacrifices that everyone does to arrive at the end of the month. Work, no matter what is it, it's a chance to have. Every kind of work are noteworthy: from the worker to the beggar, from the juggler to the retired, from the painter to the merchant, from the farmer to the banker, from the tobacconist to the goldsmith, from the parent to the card player. Every occupation is a job. Every passion becomes a job. We shouldn't disdain what we do, we should live day by day thanking to have an employ and fight against those who are dishonest. We should fight against injustice, against exploitation, against material and soul poorness. We should fight against those who work badly, against those who don't pay, ecc. We should fight and rebel if we're exploited, but, at the same time, we should work well, without recline.
The heroes of this collection were portrayed down the streets and by chance. Most of them smiled to me or I smiled while I was shooting with my Pentax P30 or with my Lomofisheye 2.0 (both film cameras).
New collection on my personal web-site, mestieri.

Dying to know the inner workings of my family's finances? When Jessica and Sarah welcomed me as a guest blogger on their site, Pretty Providence, to share my thoughts about budgeting, I was pretty stoked! Since I feel like I dedicate, oh about 99.9% of my life "watching our finances", this was right up my alley
Their philosophy is gorgeous, "We love nice things just
like the next person, but realize the importance of living frugally. We have always been a support to each other in this regard and we started this blog to encourage & inspire others in their own monetary goals and prove that life can still be great on a budget."
These ladies are just so darn classy–and so cool! Check them out, and thanks so much for hosting me today, Jessica and Sarah!

Who said wardrobe malfunctions were only for girls?
Hunger Games star Josh Hutcherson revealed that he had a mishap while filming one of the most anticipated scenes of Catching Fire: when he proposes to Katniss.
"When we shot it, the actual proposal itself is done where you don't hear what we're saying, so I was just saying gibberish while I was proposing to her on one knee," Josh told MTV News. "Actually, the very first time I went to get down on one knee my pants ripped right down the crotch."
"The worst thing that could happen when you're proposing to somebody is that your pants rip right down the crotch, and that's what happened to Peeta," Josh joked. "So ... he's doomed. He's doomed. Poor guy, he just can't catch a break."
Laughs aside, Josh raved about one scene in particular that was one of his favorites to film.
"The Reaping stuff was really great. The Reaping stuff we did was really powerful, really well written," he said. "The extras were so awesome. Like, literally, every extra was a very, very talented actor, and so in the really emotional scenes, all the background really brought their A-game. It really added a lot. That was really cool to see that all come together."
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire hits theaters November 22, 2016.

Symbol(s) for the non Premium DeviantsHello my Ryceballs. So eversince DA's recent symbol changes, I have been hearing a lot of complaints. Mostly about how regular non premium members don't even get a symbol. It makes them feel like they are not important. Its ok I hear ya I hear ya. And you know me, I am all about the people. Ry-Spirit cares. So I thought about this a lot and try to think of an appropriate symbol that best suits our non premium friends, at the end I came up with a symbol... WELL I say a symbol but its more like a string of symbols. I feel like this is the only option for it to work. And I have used myself as an example of what the symbols would look like if I am in fact a regular deviant. Ok please look below.You may need to right click and view the image to see the whole thing. Now what does it mean? I will tell you. It stands for "Sad because no money therefore no premium membership and seems like Im not considered an artist argh *swears*.. Sigh.. oh well..

OMG its an Asian!I don't know if you guys know this but Im actually an Asian living in Australia. And there's always something from my family that ticks me off, and it's how they always view themselves as an outsider living in a foreign country. My father especially, would always say 'We Asians bla bla bla' and 'The westerners bla bla bla'. Nothing too racist but always drawing a line between the Asians and everyone else who doesn't have black hair and HD widescreen eyes. Very often we would be watching something random on TV and as soon as there's an Asian or mention of Asian, my parents would turn into meerkats sitting right up and bringing their full attention to it. They would be like "OMG its an Asian!" and try to listen closely, sometimes even turning the volume up to find out what is going on. Like as if to find out whether the Aussies are making fun of the Asians. And when there's an Asian in movies, even just a not important character who only appears in the movie for 5 minutes, my dad
If Im born a girl, I would be sluttyWARNING: CONTAINS SEXUAL REFERENCES, stop reading if you are under 18. If you are over 18, I would prefer if you read with your pants down for the full experience.Above is a visual representation of what I will look like if I was born a girl. The answer is I would be a hot big boob sexy Asian chick. How did this thought came about? It started when my friend omuuu asked me today. "What do you think of your appearance?", and I was like "i think im decent enough to not scare people away, and look quite handsome from some angles and lighting". Then she asked "if you were the opposite gender, would you have changed in either aspect?" and that got me thinking. I actually stumble upon this thought a few times before, and in all scenario I always end up a slut. Let me explain.Did you know that if you are a girl, you get bonus face points?

Do you collect anything?I collect porn. Nah I joke, there's no need to because you can just stream them.. right awkward. I think it is in human nature to want to collect something right? For me I had many things I used to collect as a child and eventually gave up on.. this says a lot about me, I don't have a lot of patience probably?There was a point in my life when I collected different Australian 50 cents coins. I can't remember why exactly, but I had a habit of collecting them for some reason. Until I reached a point when I couldn't find different designs anymore.... actually there wasn't a lot. yeah bummer.Then I got into collecting empty toilet paper rolls, now THIS I really got into, because its little effort with great satisfaction, I used to keep them next to the toilet bowl too, like a whole stack of them. I was planning to collect as many as possible so I can one day build my own toilet paper roll castle. However one horrific day came when my parents threw all my hard earned treasure

I went on a bit of hiatus due to a large artist block concerning the comic, and have had the hardest time bouncing back from it. It's not so much the story that's the problem. It's how I want the pages to look that's kept me at a standstill. I never knew what I was getting myself into when I decided to play around wit a comic as a side hobby...hehehe x_xAnother contributing factor to my disappearance is that I was playing WoW heavily at the time, and then eventually switched back over to Ragnarok Online where I spend most of my time now lol.

Windows Home Premium, 64 4.096 bit
Google Chat
Good Day to all you tech wizards on the forum:
The problem I have is not related directly to Windows 7, although there may be some connection of which I'm not aware. I've tried going through the various Google forums and all I get in reponse is basicall a big "Huh?" Since many of you folks are very technically literate you are my last option.
Recently my wife asked me to install a webcam so she could see her new grandaughter in real time. I installed a Logitech C260 camera and it seems to be working fine. (I can see my bleary-eyed self in the morning with unkempt hair and unshaven face, in my housecoat with a cigarette dangling from my mouth.) I then set up an account for her on gmail which is the program her daughter uses.
After opening her gmail page, I then went to the chat icon, opened the drop-down window, and clicked to install the voice & video app. The downloader went through it's routine and informed me that the app had been installed. When I tried to use it to initiate a call I got routed back to the installation window. After much dicking around with this I clicked on the "problems with download" link and this time I got the Windows banner asking me if I wanted to install the download. I clicked on yes and got the window asking me if I wanted to run the program, to which I replied run. Back to gmail. Same thing. I get routed to the app installation screen. I checked my add-ons manager and it shows the app as being installed. I checked my Revo uninstaller and the icon for video chat shows up there. I then tried to install the program from the saved downloads folder and I get a message the the Google installer failed for an unknown reason. ????
I've been messing with this thing for three days and I'm at a loss. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Full Disclosure: I am not familiar with the intricacies of Google's labyrinthine social networking apps (I use the computer as a tool, not a toy) or, for that matter, any other social networking site, it may be that I have missed some small tweak or failed to sign in to one of their hundreds of personal data gathering apps to get this thing operational. I have tried some Google apps in the past (including gmail) and found them to be complete disasters so maybe the system just recognizes me as a Google hater and therefore refuses to co-operate.
Best Regards
Powell Lucas

Review: Black Star
Posted Nov 25, 2009, 12:00pm
Baby, you're a star. Being a modern star means in part the making of a public image, or in actuality co-creating that image with image-makers and media. It is this construction of public self or star that artist Modou Dieng engages for his show, Black Star*, at Marylhurst Art Gym with his collages of album covers, LP records themselves, the graphic images of flyers, and neckties loosely decorated with a limited palette of metallic paints. The collages resemble those u...

Does viewing websites of other countries take more megabytes compared to viewing websites of our country ?
true or false...? reason?
Asked by vivek, 05 Jul '12 09:07 pm
Earn 10 points for answering
Answers (3)
It is completely false. See the web sites with more graphics (image, text, animation etc) combined in their pages takes more MB to download. Not that is associated with countries. Any of the web page containing less image and animations will take less time to open as they are not giving any temporary files to your computer, where as the web with more images and animations will make some temp files and after those being downloaded to your temp, the site opens.Answered by ashutosh, 05 Jul '12 09:11 pm
It's untrue...only when you download date, the mb or gb count...!Answered by Dil Se, 05 Jul '12 09:39 pm
No it doesn't depend on countries but ...depends on the website ..some sites are heavy some are not fro example msn.com is heavier to load than rediff.comAnswered by Jazz, 05 Jul '12 09:12 pm

Mono Allows .NET and VB Apps on the Mac
Mono is an interesting Open Source Project, sponsored by Novell, that "provides the necessary software to develop and run .NET client and server applications on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, Windows, and Unix." The most recent version, 1.2.3, adds support for a Visual Basic 8.0 compiler meaning that Visual Basic applications can now be run on the Mac. The Mono project has an active Mac community already, and if you're looking to investigate you might start with this Xcode tutorial. Now, of course, the question of whether it's a good thing that it is easy to compile a VB application for the Mac is something else entirely. Nonetheless, Mono now seems to represent an inexpensive alternative to REALbasic for writing cross-platform applications.

A man who escaped custody last week in Welsh remains at large. U. S. Marshals are still searching for Damien Guidry.

Carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases contributing to global warming and subject to the Kyoto Protocol. Carbon emissions from deforestation, the burning of fossil fuels, changes in land use, and other human activities are increasing, while the earth's ability to soak up, or "fix" the carbon, is decreasing because of ocean and forest changes. Reforestation is a way to help restore the balance.

Due to a government plan to shut down the Desert Tortoise Conservation Center in Nevada, up to 1,400 captive tortoises will be relocated into wild tortoise habitats. However, desert tortoises in captivity are often not capable of surviving in the wild, and could even attract predators and spread disease to the already declining wild tortoise population.

To maximize performance, Gettelman and the Bobrick organization emphasize the importance of selecting the right product initially for the long-term and an aggressive schedule of preventive maintenance. "Spending time and money up front to put in equipment that is consistent with the function of the building (its environment, traffic and use pattern, and abuse and maintenance characteristics): You either program that in at the front – spend a little bit more – or over the life of a building you're going to end up spending more with 'quality-challenged' equipment that has to be frequently replaced," says Gettelman.
Michael Bross, operations supervisor at Monroe (MI) Public School District, addresses such concerns every day in the 19 buildings (elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as administration and operations/transportation facilities) that serve 6,800 students and the surrounding community. "When I started 20 years ago, the school made budget-type decisions on equipment," he says. "Over a period of time, I have proven to the school board [the importance of] buying quality products and making them last longer through scheduled maintenance. As we extend the life on the products we install in our buildings, it helps our board because we project expenses a lot better."
Performance – and the proof to validate it – begins (and, ultimately, ends) with Bross. With the due diligence he applies to his daily activities, Bross and his staff of 55 custodians and a 20-person maintenance crew "that represents all the skilled trades" have developed a formal documented program that records the quality products that have met their exacting standards. "When we bid a job, we say, 'These are the materials we want to include,'" he explains.
Getting on that list is no small task. For the local Bobrick representative, it took many calls, a dramatic demonstration of product performance (literally, climbing all over the product to demonstrate its resistance to school-age abuse), and a free installation in selected areas to convince Bross that the company's solid phenolic partitions were a long-term "solution" to the school's graffiti, vandalism, and corrosion problems in school washrooms. Once Bross and his colleagues were convinced, however, the partitions became a school-wide solution – that now, 10 years later, remain attractive and require low maintenance.
"They tell me I'm the hardest guy to please because of my ethics and expectations," says Bross, "but I think that's a compliment."

Keiko Fukuda Shihan passed away yesterday at the age of 99. She was the last surviving student of the founder of judo, Jigoro Kano, and the highest ranking female judoka in history. She was promoted to 10th dan (degree) black belt just last year, a rank that at the time was held only by 3 other people, all men living in Japan. Fukuda Shihan left her homeland and refused marriage to achieve her dreams of training in judo, constantly battling gender discrimination which kept her from being promoted as quickly as men less skilled than her. "As far as I know, no one has lived their life completely for judo as I have."

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Pollard, a longtime entrepreneurial advisor, distills his extensive experience into sound suggestions in this useful and much-needed book. According to the author, too many individuals hesitate in creating a business in line with their goals, skills and values out of fear or a lack of self-confidence or funds. Pollard argues that entrepreneurship need not imply stress or risk, and he coaches readers through the process of identifying their passion, choosing the right collaborators and discovering unmet needs in the marketplace. Helpful charts and exercises guide the reader in finding where their purpose, passions and gifts intersect; and bite-sized case studies of entrepreneur success studies abound and help illustrate his points. Along the way, Pollard warns against settling for work that is anything less than satisfying. The ideal job—what he calls natural enterprise or the sweet spot—is an innovative business that touches people's lives. Pollard gives an insightful overview of the entrepreneurial process, and the book itself stands testament to the success of the author's methods. (Sept.)

We've looked into our crystal ball, and it doesn't look good.
Obviously your first thought when you hear "edible bus stop" is "Stay away! It was built by witches!" (No? Just me?) But shockingly, the Edible Bus Stop project is not about luring children to bus stops by building them out of gingerbread. Instead, it's about providing food to the community by turning bus stops into public gardens. The Edible Bus Stop began as "a guerrilla garden project" alongside a South London bus stop. A small strip of land was being offered up for sale, and a group of locals started growing things in it. The group's founder, Mark Gilchrist, told …
Here's a kind of awesome way to get trucks off the road: put them inside trucks inside other trucks, like some kind of truck turducken. Turtrucken. It's three, or four, or nine trucks for the carbon footprint of one! This picture came originally via Reddit, so there's little context, other than that it was taken in England and there's a relevant Simpsons reference: But England would not win a recursive truck contest. It's China, apparently, that has mastered the art of turtrucken: Four's better than three, obviously:
Waiting for a bus is never the most fun part of a commute, but if you lived in Isahaya City, Japan, you could at least pretend you were some kind of magic bus-riding mouse in a fairy tale. Bus shelters in the city are sculpted and painted to look like giant fruit.
Back in mid-19th century England, public transportation was popular enough that even dead people had their own railway. P. D. Smith writes: The London Necropolis Railway station was constructed by the London Necropolis & National Mausoleum Company, specifically to serve their Brookwood Cemetery, 25 miles away in Woking, Surrey. The Company's logo was, somewhat ghoulishly, a skull and crossbones. The railway transported the deceased, in their coffins, to the cemetery, as well as some living people — the mourners headed to the cemetery for the funeral. In the late 19th century, the train ran every day, a "daily funeral express." …
An assessment of the top 100 metropolitan areas in the country finds that most jobs are accessible by transit – but the workers might not be.
Maybe. Possibly. But not for a long time. Unless you live in California, in which case it's a slightly less long time.
Final transportation bill is a major letdown for advocates of transit, bikes, and other car alternatives.
After months of wrangling, the House and Senate have settled on a final transportation bill. It's not pretty.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) -- Senior Matt Gatens scored a career-high 33 points and Iowa beat No. 16 Wisconsin 67-66 on Thursday night for its second straight win over a ranked opponent.
It was the second straight career-high for Gatens, who had 30 points in Iowa's win over then-No. 18 Indiana on Sunday.
Wisconsin (20-8, 9-6 Big Ten) lost for just the third time in 11 games. The Badgers got within 65-63 on Jordan Taylor's layup with 4 seconds left, but Gatens made two free throws to cap his brilliant night for the Hawkeyes (15-13, 7-8).
Taylor's meaningless 3-pointer at the buzzer was the closest the Badgers would get in the second half.
Josh Gasser and Ryan Evans each had 14 points for Wisconsin, which never led and got swept by Iowa in the regular season for the first time since 1994-95.

The Deluca family has always had seawater in its veins. In 1898, Naples native John Deluca settled in the port city of San Pedro and began to support his family as a fisherman. His oldest son, Jack, soon acquired a similar passion for the ocean—as a young boy he pulled lines at the docks and learned to fillet fish. By the age of 21, Jack co-owned State Fish Company with his friend and future brother-in-law, Gerald Cigliano. Jack went on to work for a decade at L.A. Fish & Oyster. He decided to branch out on his own in 1939 and set up a shop at the end of the Santa Monica Pier with his younger brother, Frank. Santa Monica Seafood Company was born.
Jack and Frank would grow the company for more than four decades, selling fish to famished tourists before selling fish to some of the top area restaurants, moving to a larger location to match their success. Their cousins and nephews would eventually purchase the company and expand it to new facilities in Orange County, Costa Mesa, and Las Vegas, with a corporate headquarters in Rancho Dominguez. The headquarters boasts a marine tank system that holds 12,000 pounds of live crustaceans, or one bodybuilding mermaid and all her weights.
Today, the four-generation family tradition continues at retail stores with cafés and oyster bars in Santa Monica and Costa Mesa. As part of their commitment to quality and respect for the sea, they work closely with organizations such as the Monterey Bay Aquarium and FishWise to help develop their research and educational programs.
Novel Cafe puts an elegant twist on the café experience—the tastes are always sophisticated, organic, and internationally inspired. Crisp salads arrive topped with grilled chicken and candied walnuts or roasted beets and goat cheese. Wraps are rolled with black beans and housemade pico de gallo or seared ahi tuna and wasabi spread. Some locations even serve dinner entrees, including roasted duck and rib-eye steaks, as well as microbrews and imported beers on tap. Espresso drinks, freshly squeezed juices, and organic, imported coffee and tea are on hand, too, to complement the eclectic flavors.
Dr. Isaac Kashani didn't always know he was going to be a dentist, but looking back at his upbringing, you'd think he was born for it. By age 15, Dr. Kashani was already combining his intelligence and superior manual dexterity in junior-college classes and auto-mechanics courses that he took in addition to a full schedule of high-school classes. Now, his years of experience and obsession with perfecting even the smallest details manifest themselves in a full menu of cosmetic and restorative dental services. Additionally, patients at Lasting Impressions can benefit from the work of Dr. Kashani's colleague, Dr. Sargon Lazarof, who invented the same-day implant.
During treatments, high-magnification optics and high-power microscopes guide the doctors' hands to the millimeter as they seek out the deepest cavities while continually devoting themselves to comforting patients. The staff also dotes on clients with spa amenities that include hydrating paraffin hand waxes and sugar-free reading material.

Pilot makes emergency landing after suffering heart attack
SUN-TIMES MEDIA WIRE November 2, 2011 11:30AM
Updated: November 2, 2011 11:45AM
A 65-year-old man suffered a heart attack while piloting an experimental aircraft in northwest suburban McHenry County on Tuesday, but made an emergency landing in a farm field and was hospitalized in critical condition after emergency responders resuscitated him.
At about 5:33 p.m. Tuesday, members of the McHenry County Sheriff's office and Hebron Alden Greenwood Fire Protection District responded to the 7000 block of Miller Road, southeast of Hebron in McHenry County, for an airplane pilot having a heart attack.
Fire Protection District Deputy Chief Laufer and a retired paramedic administered CPR to the victim, Steven R. Nusbaum, and police brought an external defibrillator to assist. Two shocks were administered to Nusbaum, who was taken to Centegra Northern Illinois Medical Center, where he was listed in critical but stable condition.
Nusbaum had been flying an experimental aircraft and made an emergency landing in a field, police said. The plane sustained no apparent damage. The pilot's son, Chance A. Nusbaum, had been monitoring his father's flight and saw the plane land in the field, police said. He arrived first on the scene and found his father lying back in the seat on the plane.
The FAA was notified of the incident.
The defibrillator was one of five donated to the sheriff's office by the Sara Kathleen Schacht Memorial Foundation. Fire District Capt. Thomas Linneman said that in such instances, "early CPR and early defibrillation are key to the chain of survival."

What Did You Learn This Month?
Night School would not be complete without a quiz! Don't worry about your test-taking skills or grades. This is an open-magazine, true or false test. Clues can be found within the Night School text, photos, and captions. Have a good month!
True or False Questions:
1. Thrust misalignment could mean the rear axle has shifted. Worn springs, bad spring bushings, or a bent frame may also account for thrust problems.
2. If a vintage monobeam axle and frame are straight, the springs set evenly, the kingpins fit properly and caster angle meets specification, it is possible to set toe-in yourself.
3. Viewed from the front of the vehicle, camber degrees are the tilt of each front tire from a vertical centerline. If the top of the tire tilts inward, camber is "negative."
4. If a twin I-beam chassis rises straight up, the beams drop in fixed arcs. Each wheel shifts in positive degrees of camber, and the tire contact pattern at the road surface narrows.
5. Specs call for more right side caster angle than left. Extra caster compensates for road crown, enabling the vehicle to steer without pull on a straight, crowned roadway.
6. It is perfectly all right to align a frontend with worn bushings, loose steering linkage, worn knuckle ball joints, or damaged components. You'll save money.
7. With independent SLA front suspension, the toe-in can be adjusted separately for each wheel. This allows adjustment with the steering gear and steering wheel on center.
8. A common tire problem is radial pull. If the tires have a non-directional tread, radial pull can sometimes be corrected by simply switching the front tires from side to side.
9. If you cut the coil springs to lower your truck and a spring ends up too short, a twist-in spring spacer is a great way to compensate for sagging or short coil springs.
10. When caster and camber are on specification and SAI is out of specification, the spindle or steering knuckle could be damaged.

Videogame Biz: Women Still Very Much in the Minority
Jade Raymond doesn't bristle when asked about the small number of women working in the videogame industry. It's a question she gets a lot since she's one of the few female executives running a major game studio.
As the head of Ubisoft Toronto, she led a team of 300 in producing "Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Blacklist," a game that was released in September and designed to revive one of the publisher's biggest franchises.
In a very male-dominated business where an estimated 12% of the workforce is made up of women, Raymond's role is unusual.
"We're like unicorns," she jokes, but adds that there are more women entering the games industry, after representing just 3% in 1989. "When there's a woman as the head of a studio, you do attract more women."
At game publishers around the world, women are making inroads: Bonnie Ross and Kiki Wolfkill, at 343 Industries, are heading up high-profile tentpoles that include Microsoft's juggernaut "Halo" franchise. Kim McAuliffe and Elizabeth Sampat are leading game designers at Microsoft Game Studios and Storm8. Julie Uhrman and Kellee Santiago are launching hardware including the Ouya videogame console. Robin Hunicke, after producing the indie hit "Journey," started a game studio. Alisa Chumachenko produced the hit mobile game "Paradise Island" through Game Insight Intl. in Russia. Reine Abbas has scored with Lebanon-based Wixel Studios.
Women in leadership roles in the business come as more femmes are playing games.
Much of that is due to the growing popularity of social and mobile games like "Angry Birds," "Farmville," "Minecraft" and "Candy Crush" -- addictive casual games that can be played on smartphones or tablets and don't require a heavy commitment of tens of hours to play. More than half of all social and mobile gamers are women, according to industry research firm EEDAR, but surprisingly as many as 30% of women play more violent games like "Halo," the group found. "Call of Duty" counts around 20% femme players, while "Grand Theft Auto" is around 15% for the whole franchise, their creators say.
The call to recruit more women to work in game companies also has an acute economic impetus spurred by the pressure to figure out a way to broaden the appeal of titles beyond men (the average age of videogame buyers is 35) after sales have disappointed much of the year.
While making "Halo 4," Wolfkill's goal was to make the franchise more approachable in order to become a blockbuster experience. That requires a diverse workforce.
"Games often reflect the culture of the studio they're from," says Wolfkill, who has also worked on testosterone-targeted franchises like "Gears of War" and "Project Gotham Racing." "I think studios where diversity of thought is present definitely shows in the games that they make. A lot (of women) want to be pulled into a world and immersed in a story and a universe, and I think that's something that's always been a part of 'Halo.' We're always trying to tell a story with some emotional resonance."
Gary Carr, a creative director at Lionhead Studios (the "Fable" franchise), believes the games development workforce will be evenly split between men and women within the next five to 10 years.
"I think as developers, in terms of job applicants, we're noticing now that we're at last getting the diversity we want when you're coming up with a creative team," Carr points out. "I don't just want guys making games for guys. I want guys and girls making games for guys and girls. You have to reflect that in your workforce, and it's starting to happen."
The more high-profile games are also starting to look different.
Activision will enable players of the upcoming "Call of Duty: Ghosts" to customize their characters and play as a female soldier for the first time. This comes as hits like "Mass Effect 3" have also added playable female characters.
"It's something we've wanted to do for a long time," says Eric Hirshberg, president and CEO of Activision Publishing. "Our fan base is huge," adds "Ghosts" executive producer Mark Rubin. "We said, 'We know there are women playing, how can we be more inclusive and embrace them?' "
The industry can do much more than just adding female characters.
There are still big differences in salary, with the average income for women 27% smaller than the average income for men in the biz.
And the industry must still wrestle with other issues of sexism and the cliche of the booth babe at conventions.
In March, Brenda Romero, a 30-year vet of the industry who has worked on 22 games over her career, including "Dungeons and Dragons," abruptly resigned as co-chair of the Intl. Game Developers Assn.'s Women in Games group after the org co-sponsored a party at this year's Games Developer Conference, which employed scantily clad women dancers to entertain guests. During a prior panel, she stressed her disdain for booth babes at E3, saying they made her uncomfortable. "It felt like walking through a construction site," she said. "Why do I feel this way? I founded this fucking industry, you motherfuckers. I felt like I was receiving a lot of gazes I didn't want to receive."
More changes are guaranteed as more women play games.
The growing popularity of new YouTube stars such as Lisa Malambri (aka Lucy Mae) and Dodger, who record themselves playing action games like "Grand Theft Auto V" on networks like Machinima and Maker Studios, draws millions of viewers of both sexes.
"I think that female gamers -- particularly younger gamers -- are becoming more comfortable saying that they're gamers, and that has a huge impact on the industry's perception," Wolfkill says.
And execs like Hunicke also are putting pressure on her counterparts.
"You are either working actively to broaden participation in our industry, or you are in the way," she said during a panel at GDC as a reason for why she promoted the #1ReasonToBe women-in-gaming movement that had launched on Twitter.
Adds Raymond, "Once there's a critical mass (of female gamers), you'll get more women entering the industry. They won't feel alone."
