They've got your back
Heroes that insist on doing everything on their own must be socially inept, trying to compensate for their insecurities, suffer from horrendous body odor, or all of the above. Saving the world isn't something you do by yourself--you need allies at your side to give you support and cover your six when you're going up against a seemingly unstoppable evil. And no genre emphasizes crowded adventuring parties like the RPG, where everyone has a part to play and no party size is too big (outside of combat, that is). It's always the more, the merrier, and some followers even end up being more interesting than the protagonist who's leading them.
But, as with any video game trope, certain patterns in party member behavior have cropped up over the years. Maybe there are only so many ways to write a supporting character, or maybe writers just like to lean on these tried-and-true archetypes when trying to hit some kind of party member quota. Whatever the case, it seems like the majority of RPG side-characters fall into at least one of these 15 classic archetypes. Just try telling us you haven't grouped up with characters like
The Cool Cat
There are varying degrees of "cool," but The Cool Cat always conveys some level of badassery. Maybe this party member never really feels threatened by the impending doom your team is repeatedly facing. Perhaps they always seem to show up at just the right time, solving your particular crisis with barely any effort and acting like it was no big deal. Rarely do they feel a need to raise their voice, and if there's a particularly emotional scene, you best believe The Cool Cat will just be chillin' calmly on the sidelines while everyone else in the party weeps and moans. You might think they're too detached at times, but it's hard to deny their nonchalant charms and combat prowess.
Notable examples: Garrus (Mass Effect series), Linca (Atelier series), Auron (Final Fantasy X)
The Noble
Whether in the thick of battle or dialogue trees around the campfire, The Noble always conveys a sense of importance and gravitas. Their clothing is the cutting edge of virtual fashion, and they do everything with a sense of proud (arrogant, even) conviction. Some are friendly; others seem cold and distant. But at all times, The Noble is driven by their own motivation--a personal goal that they hope to accomplish on the way towards helping you defeat evil once and for all. This goal can be the righting of a personal wrong done by or to them, or the exorcism of a personal tragedy that has haunted them for years. Carrying a conversation with The Noble can be tricky, but you know they always mean well.
Notable examples: Miranda (Mass Effect series), Ashe (Final Fantasy XII), Kiefer (Dragon Quest VII)
The Gentle Giant
Just because you're physically imposing doesn't automatically make you a big bully. Appearances can be deceiving--just ask The Gentle Giant, who's constantly getting misjudged for their colossal stature and intimidating physique. In truth, The Gentle Giant loves peace above all things, and prefers a simple life to all the bloodshed inherent to most RPG adventures. They tend to be more of the strong, silent type, offering a few key words of wisdom to the conversation when you least expect it. On the other side of the spectrum is The Gentle Giant that talks a big game about how tough they are, in a thinly veiled attempt to hide their soft side.
Notable examples: Kimahri (Final Fantasy X), Oengus (Child of Light), Sten (Dragon Age: Origins)
The Irritable Punk
Smirks, scoffs, and "Tch!"s are the native language of The Irritable Punk. They'll help you, sure, but they don't seem particularly happy about it--because they don't owe you anything, man. Like The Cool Cat, you can always count on The Irritable Punk in a fight--but outside of combat, they're incredibly antagonistic, questioning your every action like they know better. When you first try to pry into the deeper layers of their personality, The Irritable Punk will vehemently resist--but keep at it, and you'll soon uncover the good-natured comrade underneath all the unnecessary attitude.
Notable examples: Jack (Mass Effect series), Teepo (Breath of Fire series), Kanji (Persona 4)
The Compassionate Mystic
Healing is, by its very nature, an altruistic role. Putting others before one's self is what The Compassionate Mystic is all about, and they'd gladly sacrifice their well-being if it meant sparing another party member harm. The Compassionate Mystic is often the last of a great lineage, or burdened with a great supernatural power--but they'd only think to use this power in the quest to help others. They're the voice of reason and empathy when other party members demand aggression, acting as a soft-spoken mediator between party members. Even if their constant selflessness sometimes borders on annoying, The Compassionate Mystic is adept at keeping your party healthy during tough fights and rambling on about ancient traditions.
Notable examples: Agnes (Bravely Default), Bastila (Knights of the Old Republic), Yuna (Final Fantasy X)
The Adorable Cutie
Kawaiii! The Adorable Cutie seems too delightful to exist--luckily, this is a video game. Here, they really can maintain that cheery, upbeat attitude all night and day. Upon meeting them, you'll immediately discount their combat abilities; how could anything so sweet possibly do harm to another being? Sometimes, that assumption is accurate--but often, The Adorable Cutie's cuteness conceals expert combat skills or a propensity to cause chaos, knowingly or not. You might find The Adorable Cutie to be gleefully endearing or disgustingly precious, but you can't deny that they always seem to find the lighter side of whatever hardships your party is going through.
Notable examples: Selphie (Final Fantasy VIII), Rise (Persona 4), Rikku (Final Fantasy X)
The Boring One
Hey, it'sthat person! If only you could remember their name, backstory, abilities, or motivations, maybe you'd actually like The Boring One. But as it stands, nothing about them seems all that memorable, and your other party members are so much more interesting by comparison. It's not that they're downright awful--they're just so "meh." If you're going to be spending 80 hours with a virtual ally, it sure as hell isn't going to be The Boring One. Yeah, you'll talk to them between quests, but only to see if they've somehow developed any kind of distinctive personality yet. Spoilers: They haven't, and likely never will.
Notable examples: Kaidan (Mass Effect series), Carth (Knights of the Old Republic), Kellam (Fire Emblem: Awakening)
The Raging Flirt
Keeping it in their pants is nigh impossible for The Raging Flirt, no many how many +5 defense trousers they've got equipped. Every other sentence out of their mouth is either a pick-up line or some form of innuendo--the kind that would typically be grounds for mandatory sexual harassment seminars. Maybe The Raging Flirt is constantly overwhelmed by lust; maybe they're just romantics who think they're God's gift to the present company. Usually, The Raging Flirt's incessant advances get them absolutely nowhere, but that certainly won't stop them from trying. Yes, they're complete horndogs, but you love them anyway.
Notable examples: Ringabel (Bravely Default), Zelos (Tales of Symphonia), Irvine (Final Fantasy VIII)
The Outlier
To quote Kermit the Frog, "It's not that easy bein' green." Or blue, or red, or an AI--basically, anything other than a light-skinned human. The Outlier hails from a race quite unlike the rest of the party, and though they're not ostracized for their differences, they always stand out in your party's group photos. Because of their appearance, The Outlier may cause NPCs to swoon at the mere sight of them, or get ridiculed by your enemies for not banding together with their own kind. Sometimes The Outlier has defected from the opposing side; other times, they're the last of a rare lineage. It's likely that The Outlier will end up being one of your favorite characters, but not the favorite.
Notable examples: Frog (Chrono Trigger), Red XIII (Final Fantasy VII), Legion (Mass Effect series)
The Rebellious Royal
"I hate you, dad!" Even if they never actually say it, this phrase is what's running through The Rebellious Royal's head at all times. They come from a place of power, wealth, and prestige, yet they've felt helpless their whole lives for how little control they have over their own destiny. The Rebellious Royal is often related to a primary force of evil, by blood or duty--but they've since renounced the ways they grew up with as wrong and unjust. Now, with the help of you and your fellow party members, The Rebellious Royal can finally show their ancestors their newfound independence and ideology.
Notable examples: Garnet (Final Fantasy IX), Sabin (Final Fantasy VI), Mint (Threads of Fate)
The Merc with a Heart of Gold
Greed is what motivates these Han Solo types when you first meet them. Joining you on a righteous quest is all fine and dandy, but The Merc with a Heart of Gold always puts profits before the greater good. As an adventurer for hire, they're constantly reminding you of the mercenary profession's self-centered ways, and the eventual payoff they expect to receive at your journey's end. But somewhere along the way, The Merc with a Heart of Gold gets over their obsession with money, experiencing a Grinch-like revelation when they realize that there's more to life than coins and bills. Way to go, champ.
Notable examples: Balthier (Final Fantasy XII), Vashyron (Resonance of Fate), Zell (Final Fantasy VIII)
The Unwitting Bigot
Sad, but true--even in fantastical realms or the deepest reaches of the universe, racism is alive and well. Skin color typically isn't the determining factor--it's a more a species thing where The Unwitting Bigot is concerned. When they first join your party, The Unwitting Bigot will make you and all your allies extremely uncomfortable with their rampant intolerance and discrimination. But after a few anti-elf or xenophobic outbursts, The Unwitting Bigot will inevitably snap out of their prejudice-filled ways after something drastic happens. Whether that's salvation at the hands of their feared race or a righteous punch to the jaw depends on the game, really.
Notable examples: Javik (Mass Effect 3), Wakka (Final Fantasy X), Mordin (Mass Effect series)
The Grizzled Veteran
They had their chance, and they blew it. But now, here you are, offering The Grizzled Veteran one last chance at redemption before they succumb to death and/or disease. They can be a mentor, father figure, or reluctant curmudgeon, but they always have some wisdom to impart when your party needs it most. The Grizzled Veteran has seen what evil can do to the world, and they're pretty keen on making sure that you don't repeat their mistakes. They may be old enough to be one of your grandparents, yet they can somehow hold their own in swordfights.
Notable examples: Cid (Final Fantasy VII), Wrex (Mass Effect series), Basch (Final Fantasy XII)
The Staunch Optimist
Nothing gets The Staunch Optimist down, no matter how much you wish they would just shut up for a second. As the upbeat member of your party, they always chime in with compliments and reassurances, even when things look grim. For some players, this constant reassurance will be a comfort; for others, it'll be like chipper nails squeaking down a jolly chalkboard. The Staunch Optimist usually fills the role of your protagonist's best friend, or the party's comic relief. They seem to wear a smile at all times--but as the plot progresses, you might learn that it's all a front to forget a dark past. Or maybe they really are just that happy.
Notable examples: Teddie (Persona 4), Snow (Final Fantasy XIII), Riki (Xenoblade Chronicles)
The Bench Warmer
You don't care about The Bench Warmer. Whenever they open their mouths, you either yawn or groan. They probably have a lot going on in their virtual lives, but you can't be bothered to find out what that may be, exactly. At best, you'll forget that they even exist, since you never speak with them or take them into battle. At worst, something in the plot will force you to utilize them, creating an agonizing stretch where one of your party slots feels utterly useless. There's probably someone out there who loves The Bench Warmer--but you just wish they weren't wasting precious time and game memory.
Notable examples: The Bard (Final Fantasy IV), James Vega (Mass Effect 3), Quina (Final Fantasy IX)

Hum.... interesting that all in introverts are responding.
Although I need my garden time to get my head together (which makes me
an introvert), I also need time with my friends to gain my sense of
humor back and regain control of my stressed life. (so does that make me
an extrovert )....
It always amazes my DH that no matter where we go, I always run into
someone I know.... and it doesn't matter what state we are in. :( I am
not one that looks the other way, always stop to say hi. So a five
minute trip into a store can last a good hour.... boy does that tick him

I love the idea of having a surface by a sofa—whether it's in front or on the sides. I never like a sofa that seems like it's floating by itself.
I started out working with really small spaces. I quickly learned that the only way to make a small space successful is through proportions. Even when you start working on bigger spaces, it's still key.

Dawkinsia filamentosus
2 Attachment(s)
Family: Cyprinidae, Subfamily Barbinae
Common Name: Filament Barb, Blackspot Barb
Origin and Habitat: Endemic to southwestern India. Most common in coastal floodplains where it occurs in both fresh and brackish waters of rivers, estuaries, reservoirs and marshes.
Compatibility/Temperament: Generally peaceful but may be somewhat aggressive if not maintained in groups of at least eight. An active fish, it can be maintained with other similarly-sized non-aggressive active fish such as the larger barbs, rasbora and loaches.
Filament Barb Diet
Omnivorous by nature (feeding on insects, worms, crustaceans and plant matter), most prepared foods like flakes and granules are accepted; frozen bloodworms, mysis and river shrimp are relished.
Attains six inches though normally between 5 and 6 inches.
Minimum Tank Suggestion
4 feet in length.
Water parameters for Filament Barb
Soft to moderately hard (hardness to 15 dGH), slightly acidic (pH 6 to 7) fresh or brackish water, temperature 20-25C/68-76F.
The attractive larger barb is sometimes seen under the common name Blackspot Barb. Given its larger size and active swimming behaviour, it requires a 4-foot tank at minimum, and should be kept in a group to curtail any aggression. A gravel substrate with small rocks and some plants along the sides and back would provide a suitable environment. Reported to live up to 8 years.
Juveniles are difficult to sex. Males are larger and more colourful than the rounder females, and have a filamented dorsal fin when sexually mature; when in spawning condition they also have a cluster of small white 'nodules' on their noses. Spawning happens at any time of day or night and can last for hours. The males chase the females in wild swim patterns involving sharp turns and steep dives; eggs are scattered by the female and the male swims into the cloud of eggs fertilising them.
This species shares very similar colouration and patterning with (currently) six other species; these were differentiated thoroughly by Pethiyagoda and Kottelat (2005). The authors also included information on the natural habitat of this species.
This fish is sometimes encountered under the scientific names Barbus filamentosus, Systomus filamentosus, Leuciscus filamentosus, and Systomus maderaspatensis. When originally described by A. Valenciennes in 1844 it was named Leuciscus filamentosus, until being assigned to Puntius in 1987 by C. Selvaraj and M. Abraham. These names are now all invalid synonyms. Pethiyagoda et al. (2012) assigned this species to their newly-erected genus Dawkinsia, named for Richard Dawkins in recognition of his contribution to the public understanding of science and, in particular, of evolutionary science. The species epithet filamentosus is Latin and refers to the filamented dorsal fin.
The genus Puntius was erected in 1822 by F. Hamilton for the spotted barbs, and some 139 species have recently been included; the name Puntius comes from the Bangla term pungti (small cyprinids). Some ichthyologists do not recognize all member species as such and believe that a full revision is needed. Rainboth (1996) suggested that the old demised genus Systomus should be reinstated as valid because Puntius currently appears to be a polyphyletic grouping of species. [Polyphyletic means the taxon is composed of unrelated organisms (here, fish species) descended from more than one ancestor, i.e., not from a common ancestor.] Rainboth described physiological differences between certain species in Puntius to support his proposal. The revision by Pethiyagoda et al. (2012) considering the species native to Southern Asia (the Indian subcontinent) has moved six species into the resurrected genus Systomus, and erected three new genera, Dawkinsia, Pethia and Haludaria [originally Dravidia in the paper, but subsequently changed] for several other species respectively.

The world's best new cars at the Geneva Motor Show
Designers and manufacturers from around the world prepare to descend on the annual car show to showcase their latest models. See them here
Slideshow: Geneva Motor Show
Lamborghini Aventador J
For most of the year, carmakers work secretly behind closed doors, dreaming up wacky ideas that never see the light of day, whilst developing new, more exciting versions to replace the vehicles on sale now.
But every March, from Munich, Detroit, Maranello, and the West Midlands, the world's greatest carmakers migrate to Geneva to reveal some of the new models and concepts in development over the past year.
It's the most prestigious car show on the planet, and this year is no exception. Visitors to the show, which runs for ten days, will see Ferrari's new Grand Tourer, the fastest model that the company has ever produced. Land Rover will show what it claims to be the world's first premium SUV convertible (whatever that is), and Lamborghini will reveal a one-off roadster version of its Aventador (as revealed in InGear on 22 January).
See our slideshow for some of the most interesting cars on display and keep checking for updates as more cars are revealed throughout the week.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Veteran winger John LeClair cleared re-entry waivers today, meaning no other NHL team opted to pick him up for half of his salary for the remainder of the season. He reverts to being Penguins property.
If LeClair, 37, chooses not to retire, the Penguins must decide what role he will play. That could include keeping him on their NHL roster or assigning him to their Wilkes-Barre farm team.
LeClair's role diminished in his second season with the Penguins, and he was put on waivers last week. No teams claimed him at his full salary, so he was assigned to Wilkes-Barre, then put in re-entry waivers.
More details in tomorrow's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

A Clean Cut franchisee finds his new career through Franchise Direct
Paul Keyworth
"I became a Clean Cut franchisee in March 2014 and I simply hit the ground running. Previously I was head green keeper at my local golf course. But after years of hard work and dedication I began to feel unappreciated and under-valued so I decided it was time to do something drastic and that's when I came across the Clean Cut opportunity.
Although I was slightly nervous about running my own business I soon realised with the Clean Cut back office support network behind me I would never feel alone, and any worries I had were short lived.
Even the incoming calls are answered for me so I don't have to down tools and race back to the van, scrabbling for a pen and paper to write the contact's details down.
I would recommend to anyone who wants to go into business for themselves, who likes the outdoor life and being their own boss to get in touch with Clean Cut. If you're anything like me you won't regret the decision."

Handbuilt 4-Rotor Engine
This was a project that took about five years of weekends to put together. There was a lot of trial and error as jury-rigged parts were improvised and revised, leaks were identified and plugged, and byzantine electrical diagrams were decoded. It still does not run smoothly, as there likely is a problem with the intake system that has prevented smooth timing at idle. But she runs! lots of people wanted to know where the E-shaft came from: it was custom ordered from a shop in New Zealand.

A leading Canadian Media and Entertainment Company selects Concept Interactive Inc.
HR portal built on Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 enables HR Departments to easily, effectively and cost-efficiently serve employees.
The client chose Concept for its unparalleled ability to create web pages tailored to the needs of each of its workers. As all employees and managers at the client organization used it as a primary base for information, the HR Intranet portal found itself at the hub of standardization attempts. Manual processes engulfed nearly all of the resources of the HR Department, introducing delays and frustration. Most of the processes relied on human intervention, paper forms, e-mail messages, and phone conversations, presenting many opportunities for errors, rework, and redundancy. It was also found that HR business partners spent 50 – 75% of their time on administrative tasks. The client was highly motivated to improve operational efficiency by enabling the HR partners to focus on more important activities such as workforce and talent management.
Intended to deepen the company's relationship to employees, personalized employee pages based on their individual profiles will be a very critical component of the clients' strategic employer-employee communication portal initiative.
Client's HR Department is also looking to improve how they deliver consistent information related to company benefits and policies to their employees while streamlining administrative costs and fostering an environment of employee self-sufficiency.
Concept will play a key role in the client's business strategy to promote employee well-being and loyalty across the organization by improving employee satisfaction in the way they communicate. The HR portal will also add great value in delivering clear and specific answers to queries related to company policies – such as Maternity/Parental Leave, Short term Disability Leave, Employee benefit schemes, and other issues relating to work.
Addressing issues that employees care about will allow them to focus on work related activities rather than spending time searching for information. The HR portal solution built on Microsoft Office Sever 2007 solution is also one of the most cost-effective solutions available in the market today.
"Our client is at the forefront of forward-thinking organizations who realize the strategic importance and bottom-line significance of improving employer-employee communications. We look forward to working closely with our client as they unveil their employee portal", said Christopher Federico – CEO and President, Concept Interactive Inc.

~ "Remember Annette and Smile" ~
Thank you for visiting Annette's memorial.
The flowers and visits are so appreciated.
Annette Peckham Hallonquist
Annette Peckham Hallonquist, age 65, was born December 3, 1945, to
M.O. Peckham
Doris Peckham.
. Annette passed away Friday night,
September 9, 2011
at 11:45 pm at her son's home, with both of her children by her side, (although, the official date is September 10, 2011). She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Marvin "
" Hallonquist.
~~~Happy Memories of Annette~~~
Annette was a loving and very caring mother, sister, aunt, mother-in-law, grandmother and friend. She owned her own beauty shop in the early 70's and worked various other jobs through the years. She was never one to be idle. She was always busy and loved to work in her yard. Her house was always spotless and so was her yard.
Annette was an awesome cook and baking was her favorite. Our family loved to sit down at her table for a family meal. Everything she cooked was delicious!
Annette kept a bowl on her kitchen table that she kept filled with different candy for each of us. The bowl was never empty of my favorite candy...Kraft caramels. She always thought of each of us.
Annette prayed for each of us every day. She would do anything she could to help any one of us. She loved her family and we loved her.
Annette was a good Mother. She was deeply devoted to both of her children. She was as gentle as a kitten, unless she thought somebody mistreated one of them.
Through the years, I watched Annette care for both her parents and for her husband, Marvin. Family was everything to her. After Marvin had the stroke, she took time off from work, and cared for him at home. She made his life as comfortable as she could. The last 10 months after the stroke were 10 of the most special and precious months of our lives. We still had our family gatherings every Sunday, and we all worked hard to finish the house that Marvin and Annette began building before he had the stroke. Sadly, Marvin died before the house was completed. Annette spent the last 9 years of her life living there, and she enjoyed it so much. She loved sitting on the front porch, and watching the ducks and geese on the 7 acrea pond that Marvin and his brother built. She had the most beautiful view any season of the year.
Annette was a good person with a loving and caring heart, and she left this world knowing she was deeply loved by her children and family. We love and miss her so much. We speak of her every day.
Losing Annette taught us how brief and precious life is, and how we always need to love one another and be there for each other. We will love, miss and honor Annette's memory for as long as we live.
"The Day God Called You Home"
God looked around his garden
and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this earth
and saw your loving face.
He put his arms around you
and lifted you to rest.
His garden must be beautiful,
He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain.
And he knew that you would
never get well on earth again.
He saw your path was difficult,
He closed your tired eyes,
He whispered to you" Peace be thine"
and gave you wings to fly.
When we saw you sleeping
so calm and free of pain,
we would not wish you back to earth
to suffer once again.
You've left us precious memories,
your love will be our guide,
you live on through us,
you're always by our side.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you
on the day God called you home.
~Author Unknown~
Our lives go on without you but nothing is the same. We have tried to hide our heartaches when someone speaks your name. Sad are the hearts that loved you. Silent the tears that fall. Living our lives without you is the hardest part of all. You did so many things for us, your heart was kind and true, and when we needed someone we could always count on you. The special years will not return when we were all together, but with the love within our hearts you will walk with us forever.

I believe there is an overwhelming scientific case for censoring adverts so that only average-looking models are permitted, though it will never happen. Hard evidence that repeated exposure to Kate Moss et al causes depression and eating disorders in women, and dissatisfaction with partners in men, has been growing for 30 years.
In a seminal Seventies study, American psychologist Douglas Kenrick barged in on male students watching Charlie's Angels and asked them to rate a picture of an averagely attractive female student. He did the same with students watching babe-free shows.
Kenrick found that the babe-watchers gave the average student a lower score, suggesting that male students' standards were raised by exposure to babe-packed programming, a conclusion borne out by further experiments. Slides were shown to three groups of male students - of Playboy centrefolds, averagely attractive women and abstract art, respectively. Sure enough, the Playboy perusers rated an average-looking woman lower than the others.
For his next trick, Kenrick repeated the study, but the men were asked afterwards to rate their partners in terms of attractiveness and how much they loved them. The Playboy-affected men rated their partners lower.
Next he turned to the effect on women. Viewing slides of female models lowered their moods, and after being shown beauties rather than neutral images, women vulnerable to eating disorders wanted to be thinner.
There can be little doubt that TV advertising and the stuff in between has been a major contributor to the three to 10 times increase in rates of depression since 1950 (with twice as many women as men depressed). What's more, in theory, this use of beauty could be stopped.
The Advertising Standards Authority could use a public panel to judge the beauty of women used, and insist on more averagely attractive ones. The cries of 'nanny state' from corporations and the many men and women addicted to seeing gorgeous actresses and models would be deafening. But change is only likely to come from making gender roles more equal.
In Denmark last year, I was staggered to find a population in which the men are more concerned with their weight than the women, who are often a bit plump, wear loose-fitting clothes, and hardly a miniskirt is to be seen - even among teenagers.
This is because being extravagantly sexy is not the main way for women to advance themselves in Denmark. It made a striking contrast to my previous destination, Russia, where the women nearly all look like Maria Sharapova and where gender inequality has mushroomed since perestroika. Reasons To Be Like Denmark, Part 1.
The mental block
From around the age of seven, children become increasingly less engaged with schoolwork. In accord with previous studies (see www.selfdeterminationtheory.org), a recent series of experiments suggests why.
Eleven-year-old children were given a text to read about the food chain. One sample were told to do it because it would help them be healthy and physically fit - an intrinsic goal with its own, inherent satisfaction. The other sample were told it could help make them more attractive or beautiful - an extrinsic goal, concerned with how others perceived them (praise and reward).
Tested as to what knowledge they had absorbed, and how, those primed to do it for intrinsic reasons grasped the material better because they became much more absorbed in the task. The extrinsically motivated sample had a more rigid, narrowly focused and superficial understanding - they were distracted from absorption by the craving for an external reward.
In subsequent experiments, instructions that encouraged a sense of autonomy ('Decide for yourself whether you follow these guidelines') resulted in better learning than authoritarian injunctions ('You have to ... '). Likewise, guilt-inducing instructions worked far less well than encouraging ones did.
Implication: Little Jimmy's exuberant love of school at age five need not become his pretence of having flu at age 10, if he is not made to feel a failure, as in the present system.
Reasons To Be Like Denmark, Part 2 - they have been educating their children through intrinsic interest for 50 years.

USC's defense probably had the toughest nonconference draw last week -- having to defend Utah State quarterback Chuckie Keeton, who entered the game tied for the national lead with 12 touchdown passes while completing 67 percent of his throws.
But the Trojans' defense, behind hybrid defensive end/outside linebacker Morgan Breslin, kept a Utah State offense that was averaging 50 points per game in check most of the afternoon, limiting it to just 14 points and 285 yards of total offense.
Breslin recorded two sacks, three tackles for a loss and two hits on Keeton, who threw a pair touchdown passes but was just 21 of 39 and held to 179 passing yards. Perhaps more importantly, the Trojans kept him from making an impact with his legs, sacking him four times for minus-15 rushing yards.
Worth noting that USC also got plenty of help from defensive tackle Leonard Williams, who added eight tackles, including three for a loss.
Since sitting out of the season opener against Hawaii game because of injury, Breslin has come on strong, posting four sacks and 5.5 tackles for a loss. He ranks seventh nationally in sacks per game and eighth in tackles for a loss. He's now tied with teammate George Uko for total sacks and he leads the conference in tackles for a loss per game.

England are refusing to put a date on Andrew Flintoff's international comeback. The team flew back last night having secured a 2-1 series win with victory in the final Test at Napier on Wednesday.
The coach Peter Moores is now looking ahead to the summer and the return series against New Zealand, which is followed by four Tests against South Africa. Their options for both series would be improved if they could call on Flintoff, who is now playing again after a fourth operation on his left ankle. But Moores said, "We're deliberately not putting a date on it. He's got to be fit and feeling good about himself first.
"Andrew's progress is very promising. He's bowling and the reports back are good. The key for him is not to push it until he feels happy and the medical staff are happy at where he's at. When he's in the right form we will decide how and where he will fit into the England team. It's nice he's progressing so well, because he's one of those players that can make a difference."
Flintoff, who featured in all but one of Lancashire's games on their pre-season tour in Dubai, has targeted that first Test against New Zealand on 15 May as a return date. But with England winning their last two Tests against the Kiwis and both Matthew Hoggard and Steve Harmison also competing for places in the side after being dropped, they can possibly afford to wait for Flintoff's return.
"The progression he's going through at the moment with Lancashire is for him to get stuck into the season," Moores said. "He'll get a chance to play as a batsman and a bowler and get battle-hardened again in county cricket after a reasonable time out."
Flintoff could play 23 days of senior cricket before the first Test with Lancashire's fixtures and the MCC match against Sussex in the season curtain-raiser.

The Orange Whip will help you find your ideal swing plane, create tour pro lag, achieve perfect sequence of motion and promote balance thats supported from the ground up. Your strength, flexibility, and swing speed will increase, and your shot-making will become more accurate and consistent. Orange Whip Trainer: Large The Trainer is the longest version and most demanding of skill, we recommend the user to be above 5 6. As ability increases, height of user becomes less important, but strength and athletic ability are still important. The Trainer most resembles the motion one feels when swinging a driver. The Trainer will provide the most improvement to range of motion and flexibility, due to the length. The extra length also encourages more patience in the transition to avoid the "quick swings and the common "over the top swing. The proper transition leads to the development of Lag. The Trainer will most emphasize a free flowing swing(Ernie Els like) by developing Tempo and Balance. This occurs because the user must wait longer for the momentum to gather. A potential drawback to the Trainer is that it may be difficult to swing for less skilled or shorter golfers. Also, the Trainer is the longest version, therefore most difficult to swing indoors and in confined spaces. Orange Whip Golden: Medium The Golden is the most manageable Orange Whip for those new to the game or having less developed skills. Yet, many of the top tour players have chosen the

Each June, the Walla Walla Chamber Music Festival presents over 30 events around the Walla Walla and Touchet Valleys. Many of these events take place in area wineries or other social settings. Tickets can become scarce quickly, as venues vary in size and the events are very popular with locals and visitors alike. While scoring a ticket to the annual Special Event performances in may prove challenging (One of June 2015's events sold out in early April), there are many more opportunities to experience great music around the valley.
Are you new to chamber music? Perfect. The Festival is designed to satisfy both lifelong fans of classical music and newcomers alike. Supporting the slate of ticketed evening performances are a host of free events such as Open Rehearsals (10 events) and children's concerts (4 events) all set in public spaces around the community. These events take place daily, and offer great opportunities to deepen your understanding and appreciation of both classical chamber music and music in general.

Mrs. Doubtfire
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that as funny as Mrs. Doubtfire is, it's really about the pain of separation and divorce. Serious issues such as the perception that Daniel is a bad father because he doesn't make a lot of money, and the implied criticism of careerist mother, Miranda, are buried under a lot of padding and jokes. Kids whose families are going through divorce might find this painful in spots (particularly the separations as seen from the parental perspective). Kids who fear separation should not see this until they feel safe and secure. But some kids may find the movie helpful because it lessens feelings of being alone or unique. Expect strong language (including "s--t" and one "f--k") and some drinking.

What's the story?
In MRS. DOUBTFIRE, loving-but-eccentric dad Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) is devastated when his wife, Miranda (Sally Field) files for a divorce and gets custody of the kids. Regular visits with his three children aren't enough, so when he hears that Miranda is looking for a nanny/housekeeper, he gets his make-up artist brother (Harvey Fierstein) to transform him into a matronly old woman. Posing as the veddy proper Mrs. Iphegenia Doubtfire, Daniel gets the position and quickly wins over the kids. But his double-life ruse gets complicated when Miranda starts dating the dashing, debonair Stu (Pierce Brosnan).
Is it any good?
This is one of those great movies that grow better over time. Director Chris Columbus uses the hilarious Robin Williams to his fullest. Williams clowns around, talks a mile a minute, drops pop culture references, and does vocal impersonations that might have little to do with the story but that leaven what would otherwise be too painful and poignant for some kids.
What raises Mrs. Doubtfire above other movies about separation is the care it takes in dealing with real human problems. Though it provides a basis for a comedy, the issue of divorce and custody is treated seriously. Irresponsible Daniel grows from the experience of looking at the world from a woman's point of view.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about the impact of divorce in families. Do you think Mrs. Doubtfire deals with the topic realistically?
Why is Daniel seen as too irresponsible to have custody? Do your kids think that's fair? What about the working mom -- does the fact that she works full time and makes more money than Daniel make her a "better" parent?
How do the characters in Mrs. Doubtfire demonstrate self-control and gratitude? Why are these important character strengths?

Shimano SH-R241 Men's Road Shoes Black/Blue
This product is not currently available. Contact us for more information.
Highlighted Features
- Heat-moldable insole and upper
- Micro fiber leather upper with mesh panels
- Anatomical last
- Carbon fiber composite outsole for maximum stiffness
- Asymmetric buckle and off-set straps secure the fit
- Anti-slip heel lining
- Heel Cup: Medium
- Toe Box Height: Medium to High
- Toe Box Width: Medium
- Arch Structure: Dependent on insert
- 298g per shoe (size 44)
The R241 is an elite, heat moldable shoe, second only to the R320 in Shimano's vast lineup of well-engineered shoes. Shimano perfected a method of head-molding to achieve a perfect, customized fit. The R241 provides excellent comfort in a feathery light shoe with pro-level stability.
A curved, anatomical last creates a natural shoe-to-foot interface while a supple micro-fiber upper supplies a snug, supportive fit. Shimano shoes traditionally look pretty traditional. But this model has some flare with the blue accents. A lightweight hollow channel, weaved carbon fiber composite sole is ultra rigid.
The upper material of the shoe regulates temperature through mesh panels and an anti-slip heel lining prevents heel lift. The fit isenhanced through an easy-to-use top buckle and ratchet system, while two off-set straps eliminate pressure points.
Shimano has its own oven that is necessary to mold the shoe, and you should seek out someone trained in this process to reap the full benefits of this innovative technology, but many people find it to fit great right out of the box.

Opportunistic fungal pathogens cause serious infections in humans, especially in immunocompromised hosts, such as patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Even with highly active antiretroviral therapy, opportunistic infections are a considerable problem in patients with advanced HIV disease, in patients who experience failure to treatment, and in patients who discontinue therapy due to adverse drug interactions or economic reasons. These infections are also on the rise in cancer patients and organ transplant recipients due to improved immunosuppressive strategies and intense chemotherapy regimens. Currently available therapies for fungal infections have several limitations including drug resistance, toxicity, drug interactions, high-cost, and severe side effects. New antifungal drugs that act on new molecular targets are greatly needed. The overall goal of this project is to identify new compounds, as well as new pathways, for the development of new treatments for the major AIDS- and cancer-related disseminated fungal infections. This project expands our previous work in the area of antifungal drug discovery, with an emphasis on the mechanistic characterization and validation of antifungal and synergistic compounds. The proposed approach is to determine the mechanism of action of lead compounds, validate the relevance of the mechanisms in fungal pathogens, and discover new lead compounds targeting the new pathways identified.
The specific aims of this project are: (1) Determine the mechanism of action of lead antifungal compounds using genomic, genetic and proteomic approaches;(2) Validate the newly identified molecular pathways by determining their relevance in the susceptibility and virulence of fungal pathogens;(3) Identify novel mechanisms of antifungal drug resistance by evaluating new synergistic compounds and new resistance-conferring genes;and, (4) Identify additional new lead compounds with unique mechanistic profiles, including compounds that inhibit newly identified molecular pathways. Successful completion of the proposed work will yield new prototype lead compounds that will serve as templates for development of new classes of antifungal agents, as templates for the development of new drugs to be used in combination with existing antifungal agents to reverse resistance to these agents, and as probes to identify novel mechanisms of action that can be exploited in the future search for other new derivatives. This information will expand the foundation of knowledge regarding the therapeutic control of opportunistic fungal infections and the understanding of the basic biology of the pathogens involved.
There is an urgent need for the development of new antifungal drugs for clinical use due to the following reasons: (i) life-threatening fungal infections are a serious public health problem in immunocompromised patients (e.g., patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus, cancer patients, and organ transplant recipients), (ii) current drugs used to treat life-threatening fungal infections are inadequate due to problems related to toxicity, resistance, high cost, serious side effects, and drug interactions, (iii) drug-resistant fungal strains are on the rise, and (iv) new fungal pathogens are continuing to appear. The overall goal of this project is to identify new compounds, as well as new pathways, for the development of new treatments for opportunistic fungal infections. This project will also result in the discovery of new drugs that can be used in combination with existing antifungal agents to improve their activity in resistant pathogens.

I just knocked up a mobile version of my nixi site (http://nixi.ca) using leaflet.js and tried loading it with Firefox for Android to see what would happen.
Here's the URL: http://nixi.ca/mobile.html
(I'll try to keep it up for a while)
Performance in general is janky, but more importantly it's very easy to trigger a crash just by panning/zooming in on the page. Just move to the center and pinch-zoom in and out repeatedly.
This is reproducible on all versions of Firefox for Android I tried (beta, Aurora, and Nightly).
Can you provide the crash ID from about:crashes?
1. I forgot to mention that this is on a Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.1. Haven't tried other platforms yet.
2. Weirdly enough, I don't see these crashes in about:crashes? Maybe it's due to some kind of out-of-memory condition that prevented the crash from being reported.
3. I also just realized that the example I put up wouldn't really work outside of Montreal. I put up a new version here:
4. I also did some digging and found that people have had similar problems with other sites and the android stock browser:
There's a suggestion in the bug to set `window.L_DISABLE_3D = true` before including Leaflet (to disable hardware acceleration). Doing so does indeed seem to fix the crash here.
At least, do you have a logcat?

Logcat just before crash
Attached a logcat, nothing really interesting that I could see. I also ran top to see what was going on:

It looks like RSS shoots right up just before the crash.
If it is caused by the screenshot code (as you surmised in your blog post) then bug 791263 should help here.

Part 1: Define state directory in mach context object
I'm gonna take a quick stab at this. But, it requires a new feature in
the mach core.

Part 1: Define state directory in mach context object
lgtm; some comments might be nice
I accidentally. Bug 794580.
For what it's worth, this site still reliable crashes fennec, and doesn't produce any bug reports.
