Far Cry 4 ( Xbox 360)
Far Cry 4 borrows a lot from the last game, but it adds enough excitement, fresh ideas and a brilliant new landscape to warrant the return trip.
Dragon Age: Inquisition ( Xbox 360)
Dragon Age Inquisition isn't perfect -- but pretty close and very easily the best in the series by a wide margin.
The Evil Within ( Xbox 360)
Certainly an acquired taste, The Evil Within is sure to satiate the horror fanatic. For those with an appetite for an investment-heavy exploit through the mind of a madman, The Evil Within is more than capable, even with a few bumps along the way.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! ( Xbox 360)
It's not the best Borderlands experience out there, but The Pre-Sequel is a solid entry that will satisfy Borderlands diehards most. If you've never played a Borderlands game though, try starting with Borderlands 2.
Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor ( Xbox 360)
Even if you aren't a fan of the Tolkien universe, Shadow of Mordor is a great-looking and ultra-satisfying action game filled with remarkable villains and countless memorable moments.
FIFA 15 ( Xbox 360)
FIFA 15 is easily the most realistic soccer game out there, even if it at times feels a bit over-the-top.
Destiny ( Xbox 360)
Destiny is a victim of the hype machine created around it. It's a refined console shooter that feels great during the action, but goes stale during just about every other component of the game.
Watch Dogs ( Xbox 360)
Watch Dogs manages to impress at times, but its overly ambitious promise is never fully realized. There's a lot of fluff baked into the experience that might leave some disappointed and wanting more.
Wolfenstein: The New Order ( Xbox 360)
With just the right amount of brutality and craziness, Wolfenstein: The New Order is a genuine good-old Nazi-killing time.
Grand Theft Auto V ( Xbox 360)
Grand Theft Auto V is an absolute triumph that fires on all cylinders. It's a relevant, witty, and satirical experience that's as smart as it is completely addicting.

The Creation Museum demonstrates that the ministry of Answers of Genesis is not first and foremost about Genesis—it's about Answers.
Sometimes when I am studying evolution, I take a step back and worship my Lord because I am so in awe.
A college student raised as a young-earth creationist shares his story of coming to understand and appreciate God's evolving creation.
A short guide to where BioLogos fits in the origins debate.
I became such an expert in young-earth creationist theology and science that it turned into a wrecking ball for my faith.
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
The 1930 showdown between evolutionist Schmucker and creationist Rimmer generated a lot of heat but shed very little light on the real issues behind the debate.
Recent high-school graduate Jacob shares about his journey from young-earth creationism to evolutionary creationism, and how his faith was challenged and strengthened along the way.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
From science and religion blogs: quantum uncertainty and God, the remarkable fact that we have come to understand our place in the created order, and the role of theology in making wise choices about the use of technology.
The new Gallup survey shows in broad strokes the challenge we face. But more nuanced surveys find that only 8% of Americans are convinced creationists whose beliefs are dear to them, and only 4% are convinced atheistic evolutionists whose beliefs are dear to them. The vast majority of Americans are not sure of their position and are open to a conversation.
Because BioLogos accepts the scientific evidence for the age of the earth and common ancestry, Ham believes we are undermining the Bible and denying its authority. However, the authority of the Bible is key for all that we do at BioLogos.
Watch to see whether the debate encourages the opinion that science and Christianity are at war. We don't think you have to choose sides.
Last week Ken Ham addressed BioLogos specifically in a blog post, in response to Daniel Hamlin's testimony told in our blog on October 14th.
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
In this series, Kathryn Applegate addresses the concern that randomness implies the absence of God's activity and involvement in the natural world. She begins by clearing up some common misconceptions about the concept of "randomness", and later focuses on the mechanisms of the immune system to demonstrate that God works through random processes to preserve life. Far from being an indication of a "godless" universe, one might conclude that randomness is one of God's favorite mechanisms for creating and sustaining life!
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.

Dataloggers (or Data Logger, Data Recorder, Data Acquisition) refers to electronics designed to capture analog signals or measurements over time for study and review later.
Benefits of Dataloggers/Data Recorders
Quiet, unattended 24/7 operation
Simple to setup and operate. Many portable models available
Wide variety of measurement types and measurement speeds possible
Help troubleshoot and identify problems in many fields
Steady declining cost
Parts of a Datalogger/Data Recorder
Built in sensor, such as temperature, or electrical terminals to connect an external one
A/D or analog to digital converter and signal conditioning electronics
Non-volatile storage memory for the collected data and a method to specify the storage rate and on some models the scan interval
PC Communications or other method to move the data to a computer and to configure the unit
Optionally a local display and keypad. Not always needed, so "blind" units are a cost saving option
Optional Outputs. More advanced units may have alarm relays or can re-transmit signals to other equipment
My handheld Digital Thermometer logs so is it considered a Datalogger?
For our website purposes, no. We further classify data logging instruments as dedicated to data logging. Typically they will be "blind", i.e. no display or buttons, and intended for long term unattended operation. A handheld digital thermometer will have a host of other features, one of which may optionally be to record data. We have categorized these measuring instruments here Products > Thermometers.
What is the difference between data logging and data acquisition or data recording?
Data logging is a subset of data acquisition/data recording. While some may use the terms interchangeably, there are differences. Here is a list of notable differences. Of course, there will be exceptions, but dataloggers or data recorders will have most of the characteristics from their respective list below:
Typical datalogger characteristics
Handheld or portable instruments
Many have a built-in sensor
Measuring one or two variables
Slow rates compared to data recorders.
Typical data acquisition system and data recorder characteristics
Bench instruments
Imagine digital replacements of the paper chart recorder
Sampling rates better than 1 Hz
Multi-channel capabilities from 1-2 to hundreds
Have a built in real-time clock for more accurate time stamps
Often have network connectivity
Many are AC powered and built to withstand power fluctuations and continue logging
May have a local display replacing the traditional paper chart. These are called videographic recorders

Watch video tips and tricks
1 (14 ounce) can
sweetened condensed milk
2/3 cup
chocolate syrup
2 cups
heavy cream
This is a wonderful ice cream recipe. I used my 1-qt. ice cream freezer and it worked very well. This ice cream stays relatively soft in the freezer (if there's any left over, that is) so you don't have to get it out ahead of time to let it soften. DELICIOUS! (Update: I tried it today with caramel sauce instead of chocolate -- scrumptious. Can't wait to try strawberry ice cream topping -- or even . . . well the choices are endless now.)
I agree with the Frosty comment, and it definitely is VERY sweet. Since I didn't have any choc syrup I made a substitute of it using choc baking cocoa- which made my ice cream taste a bit like frozen choc frosting- not that my husband and I minded :o)
82 Ratings
I have found that tossing this into my Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker is a quick solution to needing a desert ASAP. It tastes like a more elegant version of Wendy's Frosty's. My family loves it!
I think this was a good idea for people who don't have ice cream machines. This ice cream is pretty sweet, because of all the sweetened condensed milk. I Would cut down a little on the sweetened condensed milk next time I make this. But overall pretty good.
ok, for those who experience problem like i do - ice cream wont freeze - u need to take it out, beat using electric mixer at high speed and re-freeze. perhaps next time reduce the condensed milk and avoid using hersheys choc syrup..some said if the content of sugar is too high, it wont freeze.
I have been making this recipe for 25 years and still love it! It's creamy, tasty, easy and quick. Now that I have a Cuisinart Ice Cream maker, I combine all the ingredients and put it in the ice cream maker...no whipping the cream.
This was delicious! Everyone loved it! I made half da recipe and I couldn't use choc syrup cuz we never by em. I used cocoa instead and it was great! My parents said its real sweet but they still liked it. My sisters and I love it and I was just eating some a while ago :D. I made this in a matter of minutes in our ice cream machine. This was our first "proper" ice cream we made! This is definitely a keeper! Thx for posting the recipe!
I love this ice cream. My family makes this, but we have always added mini marshmellows and chopped up almonds to make Rocky Road. It is so creamy and delicious!

Template:Royalty infoboxAmlaith of Fornost (T.A. 726 - 946, died aged 220) was the eldest son of Eärendur, the tenth King of Arnor.
He was destined to become King of Arnor after his father's death in T.A. 861, but there were constant quarrels between Eärendur's sons. A civil war erupted when Eärendur finally died. Amlaith, however, failed to overcome his two younger brothers, so the Kingdom of Arnor was split into three and Amlaith became the first King of Arthedain. (His brothers founded the kingdoms of Cardolan and Rhudaur).
His reign in Arthedain was largely a peaceful one, although border disputes with the realms of Cardolan and Rhudaur - especially over Amon Sûl and the Weather Hills - never fully ceased. Under his rule the capital was formally removed from Annúminas to Fornost.
Unlike his forefathers, he did not take a name in Quenya the "High Tongue", but instead took a name in Sindarin, as did all of his descendants.
Amlaith ruled for eighty-five years, and as succeeded at his death in 946 by his son, Beleg.

A construction project that aims to reduce traffic congestion around George Mason University is now under way.
The $15 million construction project will connect the east and west sides of Mason's Fairfax Campus with a road that will be accessible from Braddock Road and will cross Ox Road (Route 123) via an underpass. This new gateway will ease access to the university and reduce traffic at the intersection of Ox Road and Braddock Road. The project is slated for completion in December 2013.
Once clearing is complete, a Route 123 detour will be built to allow for the construction of two parallel bridges that will span the new Campus Drive to carry traffic in each direction. The detour, which is slated to open mid-February 2013, is expected to cause traffic delays. There also will be lane and parking closures on George Mason University's Campus at times during the construction.
A community forum will be at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30, in the Kings Park Library Meeting Room, 9000 Burke Lake Road, Burke, to address any community questions or concerns.
The Fairfax County Park Authority will conduct its annual public comment meeting on the agency's proposed fee adjustments for this year at 7 p.m. Jan. 30 in Room 106 of the Herrity Building, 12055 Government Center Parkway in Fairfax.
This meeting will feature a brief overview of the fee process and provide an opportunity for public comment. Citizens wishing to speak at the meeting may preregister by calling the Public Information Office at 703-324-8662. Preregistration is not required.
A document outlining all proposed fee changes is now available for review at http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/feemeeting.htm. Additionally, a desk copy of the fee proposal is available for review at Park Authority offices in the Herrity Building and at staffed park facilities, including all RECenters, golf courses, nature centers and historic sites.
Park users may also submit mail and e-mail comments through Feb. 12, 2013. Email email@example.com or send written comments to: Attention Public Information Office/Fee Comments, Fairfax County Park Authority, 12055 Government Center Parkway, Suite 927, Fairfax, VA 22035-1118.
The Virginia Department of Transportation's $110 million project to increase safety, reduce congestion and enhance bicycle and pedestrian access at the intersection of Lee Highway and Gallows Road in the heart of Merrifield is now complete.
Lee Highway has been widened from two to three lanes for a half-mile in each direction between I-495 and Merrilee Drive. Gallows Road now has three through lanes for nearly a mile between Gatehouse Road and Prosperity Avenue.
Route 29 now has a six-foot sidewalk on the westbound side, and a five-foot sidewalk on the eastbound side. Gallows Road has a 10-foot asphalt path on the west side, and six-foot sidewalk on the east side. The project also added dual left-turn lanes on Route 29 at Gallows Road and landscaped medians.
Before construction could begin, the project required two years of massive utility relocation and right of way work costing $76 million. VDOT acquired 70 parcels of land, moved seven underground fuel tanks and relocated major water mains.
At the intersection, Route 29 carries about 35,000 vehicles per day, with about 38,000 per day on Gallows Road. By 2035, up to 57,000 vehicles per day are expected on Route 29 and 46,000 on Gallows Road.

MINNEAPOLIS — Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder has gone, during the past five games, from being propped up to poised, ineffective to downright incisive.
All in a month-plus stretch with green and gold as the bookends.
Ponder imploded in a winnable game in Green Bay on Dec. 2, taking the rest of his teammates down with him in a 23-14 loss. But Sunday in the Metrodome, Ponder had the best game of his short career in the Vikings' 37-34 victory. Which is why, after walking up to the podium for his news conference Tuesday, Ponder grinned and did his best Jim Mora impersonation:
"Playoffs?!" he squawked into the microphone.
From a comedy of errors to comedy, period.
As the Vikings prepare for Saturday's wild-card game against the Packers, the steps Ponder has made from that Lambeau loss have been small at times but distinct. After that Green Bay debacle — when Ponder threw two second-half interceptions in the red zone to cost the Vikings a chance at victory — teammates and coach Leslie Frazier felt compelled to offer the quarterback a figurative hug. Running back Adrian Peterson and defensive tackle Kevin Williams voiced their support. Frazier, anticipating the criticism his quarterback was about to face, pulled him aside before Ponder met the media. You're our quarterback, Frazier said. Next game you'll be the starter.
Since then? Baby steps.
"I think the biggest thing for me is making better decisions," Ponder said. "Obviously I made some bad decisions in that first game (vs. Green Bay). It's something I knew I had to improve on. I think each week it's gotten better. … You've got to continue to learn as a quarterback and grow up."
Both Frazier and Ponder say the process hasn't changed. Ponder hasn't changed his study habits or his approach to the job. Ponder insisted again Tuesday that confidence has never been an issue.
And yet something has changed. Some teammates talked Tuesday as if Ponder was a new man since that loss in Green Bay.
"From that point on, he realized if he can take care of the football, then we have a great chance to win," guard Charlie Johnson said. "From that point forward, he's just been really confident in his approach."
Said fullback Jerome Felton: "I think he's starting to take this team over."
The Vikings offense is powered by Peterson, but Ponder has done a better job at the controls. This is not to say that Ponder has proven he is the Answer, but perhaps the questions no longer have a capital Q. After the loss at Green Bay, Vikings coaches scaled back on what they asked of Ponder. But in each week since, Ponder has been given a little more responsibility.
In his past four games, Ponder is 60-for-99 for 630 yards, four TDs and one interception, good for an 88.4 passer rating. In those same games he is 22-for-35 for 247 yards and a TD on third down, a 93.4 rating. His 120.2 passer rating Sunday was the highest of his career.

I just don't want fin fans to start sounding like Jet fans when defending Sanchez. Let Tannehill earn the label franchise qb. At this point, he has not done that and should be still "under evaluation" because he is just that. No more, no less.
I'm just not sold on Tannehill yet. He is a rookie, but I won't be buying a jersey until he can prove that he will be here for years to come while playing at a high level ala Luck or Griffin.

Octal to invest in downstream facility in Saudi Arabia
9:56 AM MST | February 9, 2014 | Natasha Alperowicz
Octal Petrochemicals, a major producer of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle resin at Salalah, Oman, has announced plans to set up a $20-million project in Saudi Arabia to manufacture PET cups and trays for dairy and poultry industries. The company says the project will generate annual revenues of $70 million. Octal will hold 100% in the venture, which is at an advanced stage of planning. The company will export PET sheet from Salalah to the new facility, due on line toward the end of this year. Octal in December 2013 completed construction of the...

Democrats line up to challenge Republican Rep. Farenthold, Democratic incumbent Hinojosa
A field of Democrats seeking to challenge Republican Rep. Blake Farenthold or his GOP rival grew Monday and ensured a spirited primary battle regardless of federal court scrutiny over a controversial redistricting map.
Another congressional incumbent, Rep. Ruben Hinojosa, D-Mercedes, faces stiff opposition in his own party primary, in which three challengers are seeking the party nomination in the 15th Congressional District.[Read More]

If you draw a mental picture of the natural form of a tree and make every effort
to protect the tree from the local environment, then it will thrive, putting out good fruit
year after year. Pruning only creates a need for more pruning, but if the grower
realizes that trees not in need of pruning also exist in this world and is determined to
grow such trees, they will bear fruit without pruning. How much wiser and easier it
is to limit oneself to minimal corrective pruning aimed only at bringing the tree
closer to its natural form rather than practicing a method of fruit growing that
requires extensive pruning each and every year....
...5. The pruning techniques used in fruit growing tend to change with the
times, but the natural form of a tree remains always the same. Use of the
natural form is the best approach possible for stable, labor-saving, high-
yield fruit cultivation. Success is especially easy with trees such as the
persimmon, chestnut, apple, pear, and loquat, which can readily be trained
to a natural form. Considerable success can also be had with vines such as
the Chinese gooseberry and grape.
- FUKUOKA Natural way of farming Chapter 4 (the practice of natural farming) Section 3 (fruit trees)
Georgina Nelson Thomas wrote:The no-prune approach doesn't work for trees like peaches, that only fruit on one-year wood. You *do* need to prune, because if you don't, the branches get longer and longer, with all the fruit at the tips (instead of further in towards the trunk). I don't know if the same is true for apricots, because altho I have 3 apricots, I only see blooms in the spring -- but no fruit yet (trees are 3 or 4 years old). I've had zero success, but I keep trying (and hoping for a very early summer because the trees bloom so early!).
Masanobu Fukuoka wrote:(one of the disadvantages of naturally formed trees is that..) the natural forms of young grapevines and persimmon, pear and apple trees have low branch, leaf, and fruit densities, and thus produce small yields. This can be resolved by discreet pruning to increase the density of fruit and branch formation.
Masanobu Fukuoka wrote:The natural form consists of an erect central trunk, causing little entanglement with neighboring trees or crowding of branches and foliage. The amount of pruning required gradually decreases and little disease or pest damage arises, necessitating only a minimum of care. However, in open-center systems formed by thinning the scaffold branches growing at the center of the tree, the remaining scaffold branches open up at the top of the tree and soon entangle with adjacent trees. In addition, secondary scaffold branches and laterals growing from several primary scaffold branches oriented in unnatural angles (such as in three-stem systems) also crisscross and entangle.
Alder Burns wrote:I've gone back and forth on this issue my whole life, and the only principle I can bring to bear is "it depends".

Anne Fenninger put in a classic "What's your limit" run to try and wrestle the Super G Globe from Lara Gut's grasp and took the lead in the race. Gut came down after her and posted a faster time that grabbed the Globe. For HEAD World Cup Rebel, Anna Fenninger, the 'consolation' of eighty points that she took for second saw her take an unassailable lead in the Overall World Cup. Tina Maze took third place in the race.
Fenninger was praised, by the watching Maria Hoefl-Riesch, for the tremendous battle that she had put up all season and that she was a worthy winner of the Overall. It took a while after the race for the magnitude of the result to sink in for Fenninger but with strong performances in downhill and Super G, she was runner up in both disciplines and is challenging for the Giant Slalom as well, the Overall was always on the cards.
Afterwards Fenninger said: "Until now I have not really believed in it. I was very nervous, but now I am so happy that I can experience it. The Olympic victory was psychologically extremely important because I then had absolutely no more pressure. I would like to thank all of have supported me," was Fenninger's first statement in the finish area.
Kajsa Kling, one of the new generation of racers that have made the breakthrough to the top echelons of the World Cup this year placed ninth with Julia Mancuso finishing her World Cup season in tenth. Mancuso summer her season up with "I just made it down," said Mancuso. "I'm definitely ready for next year and it was fun racing and (I'm) happy to have my last World Cup race of the season. … I'm psyched about the Olympics, that's pretty much it."
While the Super G Globe may have eluded her, the Overall is heading home with Anna Fenninger: "It's amazing for me. I am really full of emotions right now," said Fenninger about winning the overall season title. "I am shocked. It is the biggest things I can win in my career, it's unbelievable."

Nico Rosberg claimed his second Monaco Grand Prix pole position on Saturday, beating Lewis Hamilton and Daniel Ricciardo...
Nico Rosberg: "I've felt really good in the car for the whole weekend and to get pole again here in Monaco is fantastic. The team has done a great job again this weekend because our performance is so strong even on this unique circuit - which shows that we have developed a really strong chassis and engine package for this season. I did a really great banker lap at the beginning in Q3 but Lewis was very close, so I gave it another try and pushed a bit more, unfortunately just a bit too much over the limit. I locked up the rears and then the fronts offline at the bumpy downhill part of the track before turn five but I just managed to get down the escape road. I have apologised to Lewis for having hindered the opportunity for him to improve his lap time. Now I will look ahead and forward to the race. I need to have a good start and I hope for a strong race with a good strategy."
Lewis Hamilton: "I'd had a good weekend so far and I've just been concentrating on my own performance and working on the pace one step at a time. Qualifying was going well today but in hindsight, I should have nailed my best lap before the end of Q3. This is Monaco and there is always the risk of yellow flags here. Of course, I'm extremely disappointed that I didn't get to finish my lap as I was a couple of tenths up. That's motorsport. I have to get the best possible start and then see what we can do from there."
Red Bull:
Daniel Ricciardo: "I think I could have been closer to the front today and I don't like it when that's the case. I made a mistake in the last run in Q3; we were up and I thought it was going well, but then I made a mistake and lost the time I had made. Anyways, there's no room for excuses here so I'll just have to learn for next time. I would be disappointed not to finish on the podium tomorrow. I think we have the pace to hang with Mercedes, so hopefully we can at least get one of them off the line and maybe do something with strategy and give ourselves a real chance of taking a win."
Sebastian Vettel: "I had some problems in qualifying today. Somewhere in Q1 we lost ERS, so basically the electric power to discharge the car and we didn't get it back. In the end we ran a different mode which was fine, but surely not as good as it should be. It was the first time it had failed this weekend, but these things happen. We tried lots of different modes, but at some point you have to just get your head down and get on with it. My time was okay but then we weren't able to improve on the second flying lap in Q3 as there was a yellow flag. I thought we would give Mercedes a hard time today, but we struggled with some things and the gap was too big - it's still good to be on the second row for tomorrow."
Fernando Alonso: "Today's result encapsulates the state of play this weekend and it's more or less what we expected, but I don't think it went badly, because we managed to stay ahead of rivals who have been front runners so far, such as Williams and Force India and, most importantly, we are closer to the Red Bulls. We have made more changes than usual here, because we were suffering with understeer and we had some problems under braking and the car has improved a lot. Compared to what we expected, the tyres seem too hard and we are struggling a lot to get them up to temperature. If the race is run in the dry tomorrow, then it will be an endurance race to see who can stay out on track the longest. However, if it was to rain, as has been suggested, then just getting to the finish will already be a good result, because as we saw on Thursday from the few laps we did, it's really on the limit, like sliding around on ice."
Kimi Raikkonen: "I'm not happy with this qualifying, because even though we worked hard on the set-up, making several changes, my feeling with the car didn't improve much. Right from Thursday I had to fight to find the best solution and the time lost during the second free practice session certainly didn't help. On top of that, we are not able to make the tyres work well here and in that situation, it's not easy to put together a good lap, especially on a track where you don't get a second chance. Sixth place is not ideal, but neither is it a disaster and tomorrow we will do our best to get the most out of it all."
Toro Rosso:
Jean-Eric Vergne: "I'm very happy with today's Qualifying, certainly for myself but also for the guys, who have deserved some good results for all their hard work. To have both cars in the top ten is a great achievement for everybody. My last lap on the Super Softs was effected by the yellow flags but the first one was enough to secure P7, which is quite a good position to start the race tomorrow. If we can put everything together, I'm confident we can finish in the points with both cars. I will definitely push to at least maintain my seventh position until the chequered flag."
Daniil Kvyat: "This was definitely the messiest Qualifying session of my career. In Q1 I lost the rear all of a sudden and touched the wall, so I had to come back to the pits for a nose change. I regained confidence straight away though and managed to do two good laps in Q2, which I'm very happy about. Unfortunately Q3 was a bit unlucky, because I was not able to go for a proper lap then, having started off on used Options. When I went out for the final run on new Options, I had to back off because of the yellow flag. Obviously this is frustrating because it is a track where you cannot overtake easily, but this is the way it is. We will now focus on preparing for tomorrow's race, where we aim to finish in the points."
