About the Author
Ryan is the founder of Untold Entertainment Inc., a boutique game development studio in the heart of downtown Toronto. Ryan got his start at a Canadian television broadcaster creating small, simple games for kids and preschoolers. By the time he was through, he had built over fifty games for a wide range of clients including McDonalds, Hasbro, Lego, Proctor and Gamble, Nickelodeon, and the Canadian National Institute for the Blind. These games ran the gamut from simple slider puzzles, memory games, and contest entry mechanics to tile-based graphic adventure games and massively multiplayer virtual worlds. Ryan often leveraged his theatre background to perform on-camera in promotional spots for Microsoft and Nintendo. He spent a number of years moonlighting as a video game journalist under the cartoonish moniker "MrSock". Ryan founded Untold Entertainment Inc. in 2007 and has continued to develop great kids' content with broadcasters and independent television producers to help extend their on-air brands online. He packs the company's popular blog with tutorials, designer diaries, and insights into the world of independent game development, employing his signature biting wit and ludicrous photo captions. Through Untold Entertainment, Ryan is developing a number of original properties, which include: Interrupting Cow Trivia, an online multiplayer trivia game; Spellirium, a word puzzle/adventure game hybrid; UGAGS, the Untold Graphic Adventure Game System; and Kahoots, a fun crime-themed puzzle game modeled entirely in clay.

I currently have two games published on the Xbox 360 in the Indie Games section. They are Acid Rain and Acid Rain Heroes. I am a huge huge Xbox 360 fan. When Microsoft announced XNA and the Indie Game marketplace I knew it was time for me to dust the cobwebs out of my brain and learn programming again after a 20+ year hiatus. I previously developed Paladin's Legacy and got it published back in 1985. I spent 2 years learning C#, XNA and numerous audio and graphics applications in order to publish my games on the 360. I even formed a company, PermaFrost Gaming. And all during my development, I watched as Microsoft fumbled and stumbled and most likely even intentionally sabotaged their own Indie Marketplace strategy. They changed the name. They changed the pricing structure (lowering it to be competitive). But ultimately as a business model, the Indie Game Marketplace on 360 is a failure. As a hobby location for creation and distribution of games, it's a massive success. Existing digital distribution models have proven that you can't put up a bunch of barriers and expect mass adoption of a marketplace. Barriers like, MS requires you to buy points in order to purchase anything on the 360. Indie games have a very limited 3 tiered pricing model and there is no free option. Indie games don't have access to some of the most attractive features available on Xbox Live (Achievements). Indie games by default are under 18 restricted. My current view is if you want to learn C#, build 2D games and distribute them as a hobbyist, then XNA may be your thing. But if you have aspirations of a successful business and plan to delve into 3D game development, then Unity is the better choice. This brings me to this current review.
I made the switch to Unity because Unity allows me to further my knowledge of C# but develop and distribute games on multiple platforms. Multi-platform development is the future...if you intend to make a business of game development. And this book is the perfect place to start.
Ryan starts the book off by giving the prerequisite indie game developer warnings. I love these quotes, "I don't want to set my sights too high, so I'm going to make a game like Gran Turismo, except with fewer cars." and "I'm going to build World of Warcraft with fewer class and about half the items." He devotes the first couple of chapters to explaining the core mechanics of games and establishing realistic expectations for beginner game developers. By chapter 3, you're already developing your first game prototype in 3D. That's the power of Unity! After finishing chapter 4, I just laughed out loud. Ryan humorously quips, "Worst. Game. Ever." My thought was, I can't believe what I just created in 2 short chapters. Awesome! For the record, in XNA, I intentionally avoided 3D. Even with the XNA framework library at my disposal, hand coding 3D cameras, lights, viewports, 3D model importing etc. etc. was and still is way over my head. I could go on and on...... XNA doesn't have a built in physics solution or a particle solution or a menu creation solution but I'll stop and just say that Unity has all of that stuff built in along with almost universal 3D model, audio and texture import functionality. (even native Photoshop files .PSD) I'm not embarrassed to say WOW!
At this point, I'm just going to highlight the things I think Ryan really got right in this book. These are things I sticky noted for future reference. In chapter 4, how to display variables in the editor for code debugging. You use Debug.log(). In chapters 5-7, using the GUI (Graphical User Interface) tools in Unity. I would have preferred that Ryan used the GUI feature to build an actual game menu system instead of an entire game. But one could argue that he killed two birds with one stone by creating a 2D game and a simple menu system all at once using the GUI system.
In chapter 8, you begin crafting your first real 3D game. He covers 3D Meshes, physics (rigidbodies and colliders) and the FBXImporter used to import models from Blender. Unity can import from numerous 3D modeling applications. Blender happens to be free which is pretty cool. He covers the use of Tags which helps you identify game objects through code. In chapters 9-10, you begin another 3D game and get introduced to the amazing particle system, Prefabs and audio in Unity. Prefabs allow you to craft multi-component/object Game Objects and then make an unlimited number of copies of that original multi-part creation. By making changes to just the original Prefab, your changes are automatically propagated to all prefab copies in all scenes in your game. In C#, it's the same idea as creating a class with a bunch of stuff and then instantiating that class numerous times in a list or an array thus resulting in multiple copies. Unity is basically perfecting or evolving the idea of Object Oriented Programming with a visual representation in the Unity editor......and calling it a Prefab. And that's really cool!
In chapter 11, Ryan introduces the multiple camera setup and the use of layers to control what those cameras see/display. Yes that's right, Unity allows you to use multiple cameras using layers to define what objects are seen by each camera. Simply assign a depth value to establish which camera is rendered in what order. I don't even want to think about the complexity of that in XNA.
Finally in chapter 12, Ryan goes back to the game you created in chapter 8 and introduces us to lights, more layers, more cameras and using the animation editor to animate one of the cameras in order to simulate a 1st person 3D walking effect.
Again, the book is all paced perfectly introducing us to new features in Unity with each few chapters. The Javascript coding is kept simple and very understandable.
I highly recommend this book to any beginning game developer.

Love the writing style, may be aimed a little higher than an early teenager, but very accessible to any smart, motivated reader from about 12/13+ Good foundation material, and nice progressive way of building code - having set reasonable expectations at the front end. Excellent intro to game programming, and good guide to some of the Unity features - not all by any means, just the core functionality. Note although the title is Unity 3D Game Development - this relates to the product, not the projects! The projects are 2D (although a little time is spent around 3D concept) - this is certainly fine for a first outing trying to write games - just don't allow your prospective programmer to think they'll be writing the next Call of Duty at the end of the book!

Except, of course, that this is about the "nice guy" phenomenon, which a lot of people seem to think I was talking about with the "safe" guy phenomenon. That's a very different thing, which this video lays out pretty well, actually.
A "safe" guy video would be pretty boring.

Two Countries Join The Global Effort To Cut Carbon
CREDIT: AP Photo/Andre Penner
As the unofficial Oct. 1 deadline approaches, more countries are submitting their intended nationally developed contributions (INDCs) to the United Nations, showing how they will contribute to carbon emission reductions. This week, Brazil, South Africa, and Indonesia all added their plans to the list, offering two different pathways for developing nations.
Brazil's pledge will keep carbon emissions 37 percent below 2005 levels through 2025, and 43 below 2005 levels by 2030.
This pledge does not actually represent a drop over Brazil's current carbon emissions, because the country has dramatically lowered emissions in the past few years. In fact, a 2014 study showed that Brazil has kept 3.2 billion tons of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere since 2004.
According to Brazil's submission to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, "Brazil's current actions in the global effort against climate change represent one of the largest undertakings by any single country to date, having reduced its emissions by 41 percent in 2012 in relation to 2005 levels."
However, it does represent a significant decrease in per capita emissions, which is especially significant in a growing economy. Brazil was the seventh-largest carbon emitter in 2013 overall, including land use, and it was the eighth-largest emitter per capita. But the country estimates by 2025 its current commitments will represent a 66 percent reduction of greenhouse gases as compared to GDP, and a 75 percent reduction by 2030, both in relation to 2005 levels. While GDP is not a predictor of population, or vice versa, its critical to contain emissions in the face of growth.
"Brazil's climate plan marks the first time a major developing country has committed to an absolute reduction of emissions," Rachel Biderman, director of World Resources Institute Brazil said in a statement. "This is an important shift because it offers greater certainty that emissions can be cut even as Brazil's economy expands."
The commitments outlined in the document mostly formalize goals outlined in Brazil's agreement with the United States, which was announced in June. Brazil will increase renewable energy in its electricity sector to 20 percent — not including hydropower, which has had damaging environmental repercussions in the country. It will also reforest 12 million hectares — some 46,000 square miles, an area roughly the size of Pennsylvania.
Deforestation has been a significant part of Brazil's emissions. The Amazon Basin, which covers 1.4 billion acres and makes up half of the world's remaining tropical rainforest is one of the biggest carbon sinks in the world, making it a critical component of addressing climate change. But deforestation — often illegal, and largely for agricultural reasons — has plagued the developing nation.
Some environmentalists were hoping Brazil's INDC would include a pledge to stop deforestation altogether, but the submission falls short of that goal. Instead, the country is shooting to eliminate illegal deforestation by 2030.
Biderman said in a statement that the reforestation and deforestation pledges weren't as ambitious as they could have been.
"The zero illegal deforestation goal is actually a step back from the country's previous commitments," she said. "Curbing emissions from agricultural lands will depend in part on greater investment in low-carbon practices."
Indonesia, another country that submitted its INDC this week, also has giant forest reserves — and a shocking 63 percent of the country's emissions are due to land use change and peat and forest fires. Indonesia is the sixth-largest emitter, due almost entirely to land use. Its INDC is not nearly as ambitious as Brazil's. Indonesia has a moratorium in place on clearing "primary forests" (forests that have never been cleared or disrupted) and on converting peat bogs, an unusually effective type of carbon sink, which can release huge amounts of carbon when burned.
The moratorium went into effect in 2010 and expires in 2016.
Indonesia's voluntary pledges are not even counted against 2005 emissions levels (used by countries such as Brazil and the United States) or the even more stringent 1990 levels (used by the European Union). The Southeast Asian nation pledges to reduce its overall carbon emissions by 26 percent against the business as usual projections for 2020.
Notably, though, that pledge increases to 41 percent when international support is considered. Developing nations have long argued that they are bearing the brunt of carbon emission reductions without having enjoyed the benefits of the industrialization that is largely responsible for climate change.
Now, they are tasked with reducing carbon emissions while trying to reduce poverty, increase access to electricity, and transition to a modern economy.
"Brazil is a developing country with several challenges regarding poverty eradication, education, public health, employment, housing, infrastructure, and energy access," the country's INDC says.
The United Nations will host climate talks in Paris in December that are considered critical to global efforts to keep global warming to less than 2°C. India is the only major emitter whose plan is outstanding, and it is expected to submit one on Thursday.
While the current commitments fall short of what will ultimately be necessary, they still represent significant — and meaningful — international progress towards combating climate change.
"Paris has already prompted pledges for the largest carbon cuts in history," Natural Resources Defense Council president Rhea Suh said in a statement. "We'll need continued leadership to build on those gains and avert the worst dangers of climate catastrophe," she added.

Paige Premium Jeans
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Paige Hoxton Jeans in Black
Snapped while doing some shopping at the Paige store at the Grove, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wore head-to-toe Paige. She paired her Paige Hoxton skinny jeans in black with a striped tee and jacket from the brand.
The way that Rosie styled these jeans is perfect. Tucking her shirt in and adding the black booties, makes her already long legs look miles long and really shows off her figure. You can buy Paige online from Shopbop.com
Images from Instagram.
Harry Styles in Paige Croft Skinny in Black Shadow
Harry Styles took to the stage once again, this time at KISS FM's Jingle Ball in Dallas, Texas. The singer kept it monochromatic with his favorite Paige Croft Skinny in Black Shadow with a black shirt.
I can see why these are Harry's go-to jeans for the stage and off. They are the perfect pair because of their comfort and they have a bit of stretch that will definitely allow him to jump around on stage. You can click here to purchase these jeans from the Paige website.
Weekend Going Out Look: Paige Jackson Joggers Black Gravel
As it is Thanksgiving weekend, I wanted to do a look that was comfortable and on the athleisure side of dressing. We all will most likely still be dealing with the food comas of the holiday and this is a look that is still cool for the guys for whether you finally hit that hike or just want to be about town.
I chose the new Paige Jackson Joggers in Black Gravel to base the look around. They are one of my favorite pants that I own as they have the look of sweatpants, but the smartness of a chino. Not to mention that they have some edge to them with the zippers.
To bring in the athleisure, I paired them with simple staples that many guys would have similar pieces to in their closets. I went for a James Perse t shirt and sweater by Visvim, as they help bring in the cozy vibe. Then to bring in the sports sense, a pair of the Adidas Ultra Boosts and my favorite hat by Gents Co.. This is a look that I can see many guys wearing. How many of you are planning to keep it comfy this weekend?
DENIM REVIEW: Paige Croft Skinny in Howell
My next review is on a pair of jeans that I have been looking forward to doing since the cut first came out, the Paige Croft Skinny in Howell. As you all may know, I am such a fan of the cut as they are the brands first foray into super skinny for men. They are a pair that I have just been waiting for any brand to come out with and I am happy it was by Paige as they created it in their amazing TRANSCEND fabric.
For the sizing, I based these on the Lennox cut and went with the smallest size which is a 28. The Lennox was a bit bigger on me all around in the same size and I was expecting these to be the same. They were not and fitted all around, which only adds to their appeal even more. They don't slip down, which is great, and they retain their shape really well.
Though I do prefer most women's style over men's, one thing I was happy about with these is the higher rise. Other than the Paige Verdugos and a few other styles from different brands, many women's styles sit lower. This is a reasonable aesthetic choice, but I am just happy that there is a men's style that I can appreciate like my other pairs because of this. With the higher rise, it allows more coverage and also minimal to no slipping down the waist. This just made them all the more better.
The cut of the jeans is just as they say, which is super slim down the whole leg. Being that they are men's jeans, I expected that they'd be on the longer side. They have a 33″ inseam which is pretty long on me, but I wear them with a cuff and that solves the issue. But ideally, they'd be perfect with a 30″ inseam for me.
The Howell wash is part of Paige's TRANSCEND line. So you already know how comfortable they are going to be. Even with how soft they are, they don't lose their shape and there is a bit of stiffness to them that I quite like.
The color of them is a classic dark blue wash on the outer shell, but at the lining they have a black tone to them. This detail is interesting and I am interested in seeing how they would look with wear or distressing to see the subtle contrast of the darker threads peeking through.
This is just a personal nitpicking issue, but one thing I am not the biggest fan of with the wash is the stitching. They have a yellow stitching that I find a bit stark against the dark blue/black wash of the denim. It's something that I found, for me, just takes away from the blue. This is just something I have a problem with, but I'm sure you readers won't have this much of a concern about it like me.
Overall, they are a great pair of jeans to own if you are a guy that has been looking for a pair that is super skinny, but doesn't want to buy a pair of women's jeans. The cut is amazing and comfort is lovely. Once you get a pair, you can see why we have started to see more and more celeb sightings of men in them lately. I cannot wait to see where they take this style over the seasons. You can click here to purchase these jeans from the Paige website.

Spotty calcium, positive remodeling and other features of high-risk plaques seen on noninvasive CT images have predictive value for identifying acute coronary syndrome, according to data reported in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Predictive value held even with adjustment for age and other risk factors, and clinicians "should look carefully at patients with intermediate stenosis and high-risk features on CT," said researcher Dr. Maros Ferencik.

This review is from: Corsair Gaming K70 LUX Mechanical Keyboard Backlit Red LED Cherry MX Red (CH-9101020-NA)
Pros: A very nice typing feel to the keys, solid non-flexing feel to the strokes. The anodized / brushed aluminum construction looks great and feels like it was built for aircraft durability.
Although the palm rest compliments the aesthetics of the keyboard nicely and provides wrist support as it should, the fact that it is plastic seems almost Anti-climactic to the use of nice solid aluminum on the rest of the construction.
The rolling volume adjustment is my favorite control feature on this keyboard. It is placed well above the number pad and its surface is lower that the keys so that you don't inadvertently swipe across it and the single key mute is placed directly beside it although a quick slide down the knurled barrel of the control does the same thing.
A small sealed plastic package in the box contains the typical key removal tool and the keys that you need to customize for gaming. Look and feel is Excellent
Cons: OK. all that being said about the Linux side of things, lets move to the disappointment of Windows 7 Pro 64bit.
Well first off, if you are using a dual boot system ie. Windows/Linux this thing becomes a nightmare. My advice is just don't bother, it seems (at least for my HPDesktop) that it does not function until the system boots, meaning you cannot select what OS you want during the boot process from Grub. Connecting my old Keyboard during boot got me into Windows and once up and plugged in it was detected by Windows and worked … somewhat.
Proceeded to Corsair Downloads site and selected what I figured was the correct "Engine" as it said K70 (the directions are no help here as they just tell you the website and say to follow on screen instructions during install. Once this was installed it flashed up that no device was detected and to please connect the device … ??? really? , I was typing with it! I then realized the multimedia key were non-op although the selector button for back light setting that failed in Linux did. I revisited the Corsair sight and querried the message the "Engine" had given me and the answer it seemed was that since this is a NON-RGB that I needed to download the "Gaming" software. Low and behold! There is absolutely NOTHING, NOTTA, ZIP on the download page that has ANYTHIG to do with the K70 NON-RGB only the K95 AND guess what? That did not work for it either. """ I think Corsair needs to put a little attention to Directions and Software Availability! I certainly have nothing good to say about that aspect at this time. """
Other Thoughts: I will always be the first to point out if the items I review work well with Linux or not, or in the case of this keyboard and many other "Gaming" keyboards … Partially. My Ubuntu16.04 64bit booted up fine with the keyboard and all keys except one seem to function as they should. The only one that does not is the back light control button which is supposed to allow you to control the brightness of the back light and this is not a specific fault to this particular keyboard, all back lit keyboards I have used have all had this same fault. So in general the Corsair K70 LUX will function on Linux (or at least Ubuntu) as long as you do not wish to try and adjust the back light. If you do press the button, the lights go out and all other functions of the keyboard cease to work as well, requiring a reboot to function again. As I said, this seems to be the "norm" for most back lit keyboards in Linux, my Saitek is exactly the same.
So yeah, Overall works somewhat on Ubuntu Linux … Works somewhat on Windows 7Pro … does NOT play well with dual boot systems at all.
This review is from: OCZ TRION 150 2.5" 960GB SATA III TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) TRN150-25SAT3-960G
Pros: Solid State drives continue to drop in price and this fact makes this drive a good buy at the $200 price range for (virtually) a 1TB SSD. The benchmarks I obtained from this drive were on par with some that I have worked with in a bit higher price range. I have opted to put this drive into a older Acer Netbook and although due to limitations of the Netbook I don't see major benefits of the SATA III SSD the biggest two pluses I have are much faster boot times and the netbook runs a significant bit cooler as the heat produced by the SSD is much lower than that which the old platter drive was putting out. These are certainly worth pointing out for anyone wishing to upgrade their drive in an older laptop and being a SSD I am sure that battery performance will benefit as well although I did not look at that aspect specifically.
Cons: At the time of this review none noted.
Other Thoughts: Being a SSD that has ample storage space and a decent price point it would be a good choice for an external storage device as well when paired with a fairly priced USB 3.0 SATA III enclosure. Fears of damage due to accidental rough handling are minimized because of the fact that SSD's have no moving parts, adding to the draw for the use as an external device or use in a laptop.
Of course as with any electronic device Longevity is always a concern, two weeks will not offer any input to that particular category, but as time goes on if I have any concerns about its reliability I will make sure to "Revisit" my review, as for now all things working great and just a bit faster and cooler!
This review is from: WD Red 3TB NAS Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM Class SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD30EFRX
Pros: Quiet! Wonderfully Quiet! If your NAS is in a location near your entertainment center the fact that these drives are virtually silent is a huge plus.
Cons: Not a con of the drive nor the brand, but a bias of my own. I have been burned by WD drives in the past (lost major amounts of data) and have a hard time considering them for any major use. I would certainly NOT take anything away from these drives based on that and from the performance I have seen so far with these I may have to start considering them again.
Other Thoughts: I normally don't take this long to do a review, but I wanted to have these drives in place and in use for a while to try to make a better judgment call. I have always used drives that were designed for Video surveillance systems as they are designed for 24 – 7 use. The WD Red series are intended for use on NAS Devices so should hold up well to the task. Only time will attest to that of course, so at this point longevity is not something that can be critiqued.
I have two of these drives running in my Netgear NAS to do my review and so far they have been running smoothly and from a performance stand point I have had absolutely no issues. Raid has been keeping them mirrored without issues. Temperatures have remained even, there have been no spikes even during times of heavy access.
I feel that only a couple weeks is really not sufficient time to do a review on an item such as these, Although I have had no issues so far only time can be the determining factor in the ultimate review. I must follow up with a review at a later date to feel confident in my breakdown on these drives. I would most definitely recommend and consider these drives for any NAS system that is in need of large capacity drives.

Infographic: Where's the E-Waste Going?
A good year for the electronics industry means more products made and sold. We all celebrate. At the same time, we need to be thinking about where the devices being thrown out and replaced are actually going.
Everything from cars and refrigerators to cellphones and gadgets are littering landfills all over the globe. The organization Solving the E-Waste Problem (StEP) estimates that, worldwide, by the end of 2017 end-of-life electronics, including refrigerators, TVs, mobile phones, computers, monitors, e-toys, and other products with a battery or electrical cord would comprise enough volume to fill a line of 40-ton trucks end-to-end on a highway straddling three quarters of the equator. Over five years, that's a 33 percent jump, the organization said.
As an industry, it's time to get a handle on the question of product lifecycle, from cradle to grave. Jane Nishida, acting assistant administrator at the US-EPA Office of International and Tribal Affairs, said in a StEP press release:
EPA partnered with the United Nations University's Solving the E-waste Problem (StEP) Initiative understanding that the growing e-waste problem can only be addressed effectively when we have better information on the global flows of used electronics. We are pleased that StEP, working with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the National Center for Electronics Recycling, was able to deliver a report that provides a scientific-based approach to generating information on US exports of used electronics.
Take a look at this infographic from Good for an eye-opening look at just how big a problem this is. What's the role of the supply chain in tackling this growing issue?

Restaurant open until midnight.
Not easily available 230 VAC power outlet.
Friendly staff, clean facility and a good restaurant too. Excellent stay.
Very good facilities , excellent room size and quiet location even though centrally situated. Helpful staff.
Friendly and attentive staff, pets welcome, good cuisine.
Staff not speaking English, noisy street (but it's OK by closed windows)
ok, the food was not so great, coffee was not very good, but they had very nice staff
i did not like the shower cabin - I took a shower and the entire bathroom was filled with water due to poor instalation of the cabin
It was nice and clean. The breakfast was very tasty, but it was a bit noisy at night.
Good room and bathroom;nice garden-restaurant ;air conditioned;very clean all over
very small and uncomfortable pillows;poor ventilation of the bathroom
We chose the location as we were in transit, for only one night. Nice and welcoming staff, restaurant opened until 11pm, Romanian cousine.
Well there was nothing special to emphasise, we wanted a place to sleep over during our journey to Bucharest and that's what we got. The good thing is the closed parking in the backyard so you don't have to worry about your car. The recepcionist was very kind too.
There were some ants in the room that attacked our cheese so we had to throw it away.
Garded oarking
Hotel stuff excellent.
We take 4 person rooms but is for only 2.25 persons. Room space is OK but beds are terrify not for even 3 years old children's.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Sketching is a powerful means of working out and communicating ideas. Sketch understanding involves a combination of visual, spatial, and conceptual knowledge and reasoning, which makes it both challenging to model and potentially illuminating for cognitive science. This paper describes CogSketch, an ongoing effort of the NSF-funded Spatial Intelligence and Learning Center, which is being developed both as a research instrument for cognitive science and as a platform for sketch-based educational software. We describe the idea of open-domain sketch understanding, the scientific hypotheses underlying CogSketch, and provide an overview of the models it employs, illustrated by simulation studies and ongoing experiments in creating sketch-based educational software.

We stayed five nights, two in the biggest cabana and one in the next smaller. Both were comfortable and very clean. The smaller room had a little better shower. Greg and Rita are helpful if you want and unobtrusive if you don't. The beach right in front was great especially in that in the water there were no rocks or seaweed, just nice firm sand. Tina's little restaurant on the road right behind the house is great - we carried out lunch from there every day and ate on our patio. About $4 for fresh snapper, rice and beans. There is a little grocery store right across the street, a fresh bakery down the road and internet and tv if you want it about 50 yards away down the beach. One of the local dogs seems to adopt whoever checks in if you want a canine companion. It really doesn't get any better.

My one huge complaint about the hotel is that the rooms advertised as "King Executive Suites" are not suites at all. I specifically paid $30 extra for this room because I don't like my pets sleeping in the bed with me and wanted to be able to shut the door. I was quite disappointed when I walked in and the "Suite" was nothing more than a room with a couch added. Maybe it's bigger than the "normal" rooms, but had I known I wouldn't have two separate rooms, I would have saved the extra money.
I have terrible allergies and am very allergic to dogs, which makes me very much not a dog person. So I was hesitant to stay here given some of the prior reviews. My fears were unfounded. Are there dogs? Yes, but it's not like there were dozens of dogs running around the lobby. I never once heard a bark while I stayed and all the dogs were on leashes. Since I'm not a dog person, I'm hyperaware of "dog" smell or anything indicating that my allergies are about to go into overdrive. I didn't think any area of the hotel, including my room, smelled at all like a dog. The room was clean and the beds are comfy. All in all, not a bad hotel, although I am still very annoyed about the "suite" situation.

It's like a digital multitool!Dan Woolley was caught under a pile of rubble when the earthquake hit, injuring both his leg and his head. A first-aid app instructed him on the best way to create a tourniquet for his leg and a bandage for his head, and even warned him against falling asleep after head trauma—so he set his iPhone's alarm clock to go off every 20 minutes as a precaution. Evidently the strategies worked, because he survived long enough to be rescued 65 hours later and reunited with his family. I can't figure out exactly which app he used, which is mildly inconvenient since now I'll have to download every first-aid app I can find. [MSNBC via Wired]Reply218 repliesLeave a reply

No need to drink and drive.
Plan to stay at your
If your mates have been drinking let them know they don't have to drive home. They're welcome to your sofa, bean bag, bathtub, stale corn chips... whatever.
Let your mates know your motel is open
Create your personalised motel sign and share with your friends to let them know your doors are open. Once the word gets around, there'll be Mates Motels popping up all over Queensland.
Rethink drinking and walking
When you've been drinking you think you're a really good dancer – but really you look like a newborn giraffe on an ice rink.
So you think you can walk? Think again.
8 pm
So far so good, but the
night's young.
11 pm
Weird. This footpath seems
to be moving.
2 am
Keys? Dropped. Phone? Lost.
Judgement? Gone.
More than 30 percent of pedestrians killed on the road have .05 blood alcohol readings.
So before you go staggering off into the night, plan another way home. And whatever you do, make sure it isn't riding a bike!
Mates motel menu
The day after a session at your Mate's Motel, you might wake up bleary eyed and disorientated. So, it's a good idea to hang out for the late check out, rather than take off right away. One thing you'll need to keep you going is food. What do you do when you've got hungry mates crashed at your place and nothing to eat but left over party foods? You improvise.
Breakfast pizza
Basically bacon and eggs with cheese on a pizza base. Left over cold cuts make a great replacement for bacon and any fancy soft cheeses will add extra flavour. Pop it on a pizza and shove it under the grill. Then let the headache drift away on the greasy seas of melted cheese.
Italian taco
Take your taco to the next level. Use a leftover slice of pizza as a taco shell. Then fill it up with sour cream mince and cheese. Total power move.
Budget nachos
Left over corn chips, sausages, dips and cheese can make some mean nachos for your mates.
Health kickstart
Just get whatever fruit is laying around put it in a blender with some ice and whizz it up.
Donut burger
Use two glazed donuts as your burger bun, then pile on the meat and cheese and you've got yourself an epic breakfast donut burger worthy of a king.
Brekkie noodles
Crack an egg in your mi goreng and mix in some leftover cold cuts from Christmas lunch to take it up a notch. Bam! You're in flavour country.
Classic sausage and sauce sarnie.
Left over sausages and a splash of tomato sauce make great early morning fuel to keep your guests going.
Potato salad dippers.
Grab some cold sausages from the barbie and dip them in potato salad for creamy meaty morning goodness.
Mates motel video channel
Who needs cable tv? Just switch on the in-house video channel, butter up the popcorn and dive into our free video library.

1. So after 5 years of medical school you graduated with grace.
2. Had a summer of many classy celebrations.
3. And a few less classy.
4. But you knew trouble was on the horizon, come the first week of August.
5. Because you are now a year one foundation doctor.
6. You've heard your new hospital does not have helpful seniors when you need them.
7. That the patients are demanding.
xomommyoxkristinxo.tumblr.com / Via tumblr
8. And that the managers and the doctors don't quite see eye to eye.
9. Immediately your Med Reg seems to dislike all of your management plans.
10. Giving you the impression they do not view you as an equal colleague.
11. You have no clue how to do the paperwork.
12. You are asking the nurses for help every 10 seconds.
cafepress.com / Via cafepress.com
13. As you don't quite trust your consultant's judgement.
medicalmemes.tumblr.com / Via tumblr
14. And the cracks are beginning to show.
gifsoup.com / Via gifsoup.com
15. Your first night shift.
16. Your bleep just won't stop, er, bleeping.
17. 8 hours in, you cram down any junk food you can find on your first and only 5 minute break.
18. It's tough.
forever-sinned.tumblr.com / Via tumblr
19. You just hope it isn't your treatment that is making any of the patients worse.
20. However, eventually your success rate with putting in iv cannulas begins to go up.
21. Maybe because you stare at people's arms at the supermarket and imagine trying to take blood from them.
scrubsmag.com / Via scrubsmag.com
22. You are getting used to the procession of ward rounds.
23. You gain some respect from your seniors.
24. And you realise that certain procedures you felt uncomfortable with at first.
25. Are becoming second nature.
funnyjunk.com / Via funnyjunk.com
26. You even find the confidence to try your own treatment plans sometimes.
27. You realise that, though it's scary, you are lucky to have an in-demand job.
28. Even if it isn't like it seemed on TV.
29. Remember there is ALWAYS someone you can call.
30. That planning fun things in your free time is invaluable.
31. And at least you don't have a film crew recording your mistakes.
32. You are lucky you can bond with colleagues over how many bodily fluids you've had splash on you that day.
33. That you get to meet a variety of interesting people.
34. Work for an incredible institution.

Published: Tuesday, April 8, 2008 at 11:22 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 8, 2008 at 11:22 a.m.
The following is a rundown of action taken by the Terrebonne Parish Council during its Budget and Finance Committee meeting Monday. All council members attended. All decisions were unanimous.
Action: Approved Parish President Michel Claudet entering a one-year contract with Dr. Richard Haydel and Dr. Scott Haydel to provide medical services for juveniles in the parishs Juvenile Detention Center.

Action: Approved Claudet signing an agreement with the state Office of Youth Development to house up to eight females in the Juvenile Detention Center.
Notes: The parish government will be paid $143 per individual per day.
Action: Bought $60,384 of surveillance cameras for the parishs new public bus fleet.
Notes: The cameras are fully paid for with the same federal government grant that bought the parishs eight new buses.

The following is a rundown of action taken by the Terrebonne Parish Council during its Policy, Procedure and Legal Committee meeting Monday. All council members attended. All decisions were unanimous.
Action: Agreed to oppose the state Legislatures House Bill 612, which proposes to exempt certain businesses and professionals from obtaining occupational licenses to do business in a particular parish.
Notes: The parish collects one-fourth of the amount the state allows in occupational license fees. The exemption would apply to printers, lithographers, attorneys at law, accountants, oculists, physicians, osteopaths, dentists, chiropodists, bacteriologists, veterinarians, chemists, architects, and engineers.

Notes: The program, paid for by a federal government grant, supports early learning for 200 children in six centers throughout the parish. Enrollment is currently at 170 children, putting class sizes at about 17 kids per room.
The center, under construction behind Schriever Elementary, should be completed by summer, Powell said, and will have two classrooms for 34 children and five staff members.
Action: David Battard, parish Human Resources and Risk Management director, gave an update on the parish acquiring NACo-sponsored discount prescription cards for uninsured citizens.
Notes: Residents are eligible to participate in the discount program because parish government is a member of the National Association of Counties. Battard said the 30-page contract to join the plan is under review by Parish Attorney Courtney Alcock. The parish is paying nothing to join the discount prescription plan; all that the government must do is distribute the cards.

A 'kavi gosti' was also held on the occasion. Lauding the literary achievements of Rajhans during the five decades of his career, noted Hindi poet and lyric Satya Narain said his satirical poems must be included in the curriculum of Hindi.

Noted poet Bajrang Verma said the entire country was passing through political turmoil and social upheavals. It is high time to give message to the society through the satirical poetry of Rajhans.

Expressing his gratitude to the participants and organizers, Rajhans said he carried on the pursuit of writing satirical pieces with an aim to enlighten the society with bare realities of life. "I, as a poet, have been a catalyst with the sole aim to cleanse the ills of the so-called educated society," he said, adding that writing poems was his passion for life. Prominent among others who also spoke on the occasion included Padma Shri Dr Narendra Prasad and Padma Shri Dr Gopal Prasad Sinha.

Very good.
For a minute there I had to look and make sure this wasn't a Firth piece- consider that a high compliment! The style is very reminescent of Firth, but not so much that it looks like a cheap imitation. Some of the dialogue is a bit difficult to understand, but otherwise excellent job. 5/5
Oh, the Jerry Jackson bit at the end was a nice touch.
Well Done.
I have to admit, before I watched this, I thought "This is going to be stupid," and it was, but in a good way. You copied Firth's style quite well, and everything was handeled tastefully. An excellent tribute to two NG phenomenon.
I also enjoyed the bit at the end, after the credits, very funny.
I very much enjoyed you fine little movie. I hope to see more. Here, I'll give you my fiver. Please, make more. =)
Utter. Fragging. Genius.
Muhooly. XD If there's one twisted love child I'd really wanna adopt, it's gotta be this one. YOU WIN LIEF. ^___^
Everything here is perfect. There is nothing that needs to be changed. ^_^
I especially liked the bit with the Sorrow - PERFECT balance between creepy-as-heck and fragging bilarious. ^_^

It is sometimes hard to get the one on one attention you need, I don't think there are enough employees to help students with things such as externship placement, verification forms and financial aid problems. Also, the tuituon was $16,798, which is WAY too much. Overall it is a good school though.
