It is generally thought that Mark's gospel was the first of the gospels, written between 65 and 75 AD. The author was most probably a Greek speaking Roman follower of Jesus. The actual location of the Marcan household communities is unknown: possibly an urban setting, perhaps Rome or Alexandria.
Some describe the gospel as a passion narrative with an extended introduction believing that Mark is trying to make sense of the terrible war in the late 60s and eventual destruction of Jerusalem. As 'a war-time gospel' people were asking why everything had fallen apart? Certainly, the circumstances surrounding the gospel suggest an overwhelming sense of despair. Economic policy and high taxation stripped many of their ancestral lands plunging them into deep poverty, which fuelled the revolution against the occupying Roman power. It was a terrible bloody conflict ending with the sacking of Jerusalem and destruction of the Temple bringing the sacrificial system to an abrupt end. The great fire of Rome, blamed on Christians by Emperor Nero, is also part of the backdrop to this gospel.
It's not surprising that Mark's community struggled to be faithful to Jesus and his vision. They were constantly under suspicion from the authorities, who questioned their loyalty to the Emperor and observance of accepted religious practices. Consequently, society showed contempt and hostility towards the Christian community. Internally, there was an air of suspicion and uncertainty, particularly towards strangers, in the face of the betrayal of fellow Christians to the authorities and martyrdom.
Mark's is a short racy gospel outlining the faith of a community seeking to follow Jesus in a world very different from that of Jesus. Some things remained the same: Roman occupation, violent oppression, high taxation, landlessness and deep poverty.
The gospel starts in a place of aloneness and ends in abandonment in a sealed tomb. These are the bookends of a story in which Mark's Jesus invites his followers to create an alternative economy where they are (from the Greek oikos meaning household).
Mark poses the question - 'in a world of tragedy and pain, who is God and how are we to be an authentic disciple community?' Mark wrestles with the apparent absence of God in the face of oppression, suffering and death and provides an understanding of Jesus the Messiah in terms of the figure of the suffering servant. These questions are just as relevant to us today as then.
God is revealed to us in Jesus, as the bringer of the 'important news' that God is not separate from humanity but One who comes among us to set us free, together with the whole of creation. This God draws us into communion and seeks to establish communities of followers that will develop an alternative way of living in the face of suffering, disease, betrayal, abandonment and death; a way that gives expression to a deep hope based on God's unfailing love for all. As New Testament scholar Michael Trainor says: 'The Gospel of Mark and its proclamation ... can offer surprising hope in a world where many know failure and loneliness.'
As we journey through Mark, we need to hear the story from social, political, cultural and communal perspectives not just religious and personal. As we read Mark's gospel we will see reflected there, issues and concerns that we wrestle with as communities of faith. We are invited to make the links between Mark's community and our own.
The liturgical year B is somewhat bitty in that we digress from time to time into John's gospel and Acts as we progress through the year. This makes it more difficult to maintain a sense of continuity. We will offer commentary on the set readings as we go.

Hide Forgot
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.7 sun4u)
Description of problem:
php-mysql-4.0.6-12 looks for MySQL's socket in /tmp/mysql.sock, but Red Hat
7.2's mysql RPMs place this socket in /var/lib/mysql.sock. This can make
mysql_connect fail in this version where it worked previously.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write PHP code of the form:
$db = mysql_connect($mysqlhost, $mysqluser, $mysqlpasswd)
or die("Could not connect to MySQL.");
print "We connected.";
2. Place PHP code in file on web server with this RPM installed, and visit the
page with the PHP code.
Actual Results: Error message:
Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
(2) in whatever.php on line 7
Could not connect to MySQL.
Expected Results: Database connection should be made and PHP script should
continue execution. In the above example "We connected." should appear, not
"Could not connect to MySQL."
Additional info:
This can be worked around by editing /etc/php.ini and setting
mysql.default_socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
then restarting httpd.
ditto. I can recreate this case.
same fix - but it should follow what mysql_config outputs for the socket location.
Additionally - the configure script for php has:
if test "$PHP_MYSQL" = "yes"; then
echo $ac_n "checking for MySQL UNIX socket""... $ac_c" 1>&6
echo "configure:29800: checking for MySQL UNIX socket" >&5
for i in \
/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock \
/var/tmp/mysql.sock \
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock \
/var/mysql/mysql.sock \
; do
if test -r $i; then
it should really just call mysql_config --socket and use that value as the sock
then you can build it based on the lib NOT the current config on the build system
*** Bug 60623 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Not to be a nag, but any movement on new pkgs to fix this? I'm waiting to roll
out these patches and I'd rather not have to hand edit each php.ini for all
those systems if possible. At the same time I don't like having this php bug
sitting open either :)
this is whats happening
the mysql.sock named socket only exists when mysqld is RUNNING. The build system
here obviously doesn't have every last daemon running so /var/lib/mysqld.sock
doesn't exist durring the compilation.
The default config.m4, when it doesn't find the socket in any of the proposed
places sets MYSQL_SOCK=/tmp/mysql.sock as a last ditch attempt to make the world
a better place.
Fortunately as you already know, you can OVERRIDE the compiled in default in
locate the line 'mysql.default_socket =' and type in /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
That should sort you out, though you should always read through and tweak the
/etc/php.ini file as appropriate for your configuration
I've patched the default php.ini for the next errata (should be a 4.1.2 errata
at some point)
wouldn't it make more sense to fix the configure script to reference
mysql_config --socket rather than patch the ini to fix it for THIS one case.
that way - in the future if the mysql's named socket location changes in the
mysql package then you don't have to huntdown the modification to php.ini - it
will just FIX the problem.
Then to keep from having to apply that patch forever, it might be worthwhile to
send it upstream to the php folks - its a patch that makes sense no matter what
os someone is building php on.
*** Bug 60542 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Well thats kinda what I did!
basically if I can find mysql_config, use it else hard code the bugger to
wonder if upstream will consider taking this as it's silly to expect mysql to be
running to get the location of the named socket.

A battle over language is at the heart of Northern Ireland's crisis of governance – The Washington Post
BELFAST — There's a sign on the Falls Road announcing that you have entered the "Gaeltacht Quarter," a pocket of Catholic West Belfast where the Irish language — at least a wee bit of it — is spoken with pride and defiance in the classrooms and pubs.
There are bilingual street signs here, a high school where 600 students study the ancient Gaelic tongue and an Irish theater troupe. There's an Irish radio station, too, where on Friday afternoons the DJ hosts "Beo go Deo" ("Alive Forever"), an hour devoted to "the timeless hits of the king of rock and roll Elvis Presley."
Down the block are fading murals glorifying beefy paramilitaries in balaclavas brandishing AK-47 rifles — just another stop these days on the tourist trail.
The people of Northern Ireland sincerely believe that the bloodshed of 20 years ago is in their rearview mirror. But if sectarian strife has cooled, the culture wars are hot.
The power-sharing government of Northern Ireland, a province of the United Kingdom, has been paralyzed for more than a year, in large part over the question of what to do about Irish — embrace it as an official language or keep it at arm's length — alongside a parallel fight over same-sex marriage.
Today there is no functioning executive in Northern Ireland, and multiple deadlines for its restoration have come and gone. There have been veiled threats from London to reestablish direct rule if compromises are not reached, although that would signal a failure not just for the U.S.-brokered peace process, but also for Prime Minister Theresa May's Conservative government.
The parties met for roundtable talks in Belfast on Monday, the first since June, with no results, and are scheduled to meet again Friday. Britain's new secretary of state for Northern Ireland, Karen Bradley, has refused to use the word "deadline" but said this week, "I firmly believe that an agreement in the coming days, while not certain, is achievable."
Perhaps the world has grown weary of Northern Ireland and its battles about what look to outsiders like mere symbols. But symbols remain no small thing in a place where lives have been lost over flags, colors, parades, words.
A leading advocate for the Irish language is Ciarán Mac Giolla Bhéin, who sat in a cafe in an Irish culture club in Belfast last week and translated for the waitress who asked a visitor in Gaelic if we'd be wanting milk with our coffees.
"We've turned the tide of history," he said. "We've revived a language, brought it back from the dead."
But that's not nearly enough for the activists who want Irish to be given the same status and protections that other indigenous minority languages have in the United Kingdom, as in Scotland and Wales.
Pushing for an Irish Language Act is Sinn Fein, the left-wing nationalist party allied with the outlawed Irish Republican Army during the Troubles, Northern Ireland's 30-year-long sectarian horror show and low-intensity civil war that largely ended in 1998 but left more than 3,600 dead. The fighting pitted mostly Catholic nationalists against mostly Protestant unionists backed by the British army.
Opposed to any legislation that would enshrine Irish as an official language — in schools, courts, bureaucracy and everyday life — is the dominant Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), representing hard-and-fast British loyalists.
Irish speakers hail the language as the island's native tongue, a glorious survival story, spoken for thousands of years. Some unionist opponents have disparaged it as a "leprechaun language," revived by IRA terrorists in prison and used as a cudgel against the British.
A few years back, DUP lawmaker Gregory Campbell began an address to the Northern Ireland Assembly with the words "Curry my yogurt," mocking the Irish phrase used by nationalists in the chamber to say "Thank you, Mr. Speaker," which begins "Go raibh maith agat."
Afterward, Campbell told the BBC, "I exposed the fallacy and the nonsense of people who insist on using Irish to begin every single contribution, no matter what the topic is, when most people don't understand what they're saying."
Sinn Fein says a majority of lawmakers support an Irish language act. The DUP stresses that it supports "mutual respect for all languages and cultures in Northern Ireland but not one elevated above all others."
A year ago last month, the government of Northern Ireland collapsed when Sinn Fein, led by the late Martin McGuinness, withdrew from the power-sharing executive called for by the Good Friday Agreement of 1998. The pact had ended the violence of the Troubles, but not the conflict's underlying cause — British identity versus Irish.
The long marbled halls of Stormont Estate, site of the assembly, are mostly empty these days. The province of 1.8 million people is being run by unelected civil servants. Major decisions about the budget, health, education and the economy have stalled.
The sleepy security guards at Stormont read newspapers, which recently featured an article about a patient who endured a record-breaking 49-hour wait at a local emergency room. A Belfast reporter noted with bitter humor the only thing missing from the TV reports at Stormont is tumbleweeds blowing by.
Unionists and nationalists alike describe the atmosphere as toxic, the worst in years.
Twenty years after the optimism of the Good Friday Agreement, "I would have thought there would be more progress, more reconciliation," said Emmet McDonough-Brown, a Belfast city councilor from the middle-of-the-road Alliance Party.
"Yes, the violence is gone, and that is great. But don't we deserve more than that?" he said. "The feeling now is, 'Is there no fixing this place?' "
Nobody in Belfast sees widespread violence returning, but everyone adds that a power vacuum creates anxiety. McDonough-Brown recalls that in 2012 there were death threats — and petrol bombs — targeting members of his party who pushed for a compromise over how many days a year the British flag should fly over the Belfast city hall.
He supports the Irish Language Act but said, "You're not going to unite Northern Ireland with bilingual traffic signs."
Northern Irish politicians say everything now is complicated by Brexit, the decision by U.K. voters to leave the European Union. The voters in Northern Ireland came out against leaving, but theirs was a minority voice.
Both unionists and nationalists here worry about a return to a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, which remains in the European Union. In the bad old days of the Troubles, the frontier was widely described as "bandit country."
Last February, DUP leader Arlene Foster vowed, "I will never accede to an Irish Language Act" and said that Sinn Fein was using language to beat unionists over the head. Asked about compromise at the time, Foster added, "If you feed a crocodile, it will keep coming back and looking for more."
Sinn Fein seized on the remark. "See you later, alligator," its outgoing leader, Gerry Adams, said, and sent campaigners out in crocodile costumes.
There have been two elections since. In the first, Sinn Fein gained; in the second, the Democratic Unionists did well — enough to prop up May's weakened government in Westminster.
Peter Weir, a DUP lawmaker and former education minister (who upon taking up his position removed all the Irish language from his portfolio's website), said the recent elections have hardened positions.
His constituents aren't opposed to anyone speaking Irish, he said, but are opposed to an Irish Language Act because "the general feeling is why is this needed? Why spend the money?" Supporters of the legislation say the program's costs would be modest — about $12 million to initiate it and $3 million a year after that.
Weir said, "It feels threatening to some, it seems partisan." Signs in Irish, he said, look "like a marking of territory."
Máirtín Ó'Muilleoir is a Sinn Fein member of parliament. "I speak Irish, and my kids speak Irish," he said. "There will be no back of the bus for anyone anymore."
About 170,000 people in Northern Ireland have some knowledge of Irish, he said, with a fraction speaking it fluently. Ó'Muilleoir said, "It's a sustainable figure."
"We preserve our old beautiful buildings," he added. "We should preserve our old beautiful language, too."
The East Belfast Mission, in a neighborhood with deep support for the DUP, holds classes for folks wanting to learn Irish. Most are Protestant. The students said they were curious about the language and did not see it as belonging to either Catholics or Protestants, nationalists or unionists.
"It's a shame the language has been so politicized," said Ian Fleming, a local artist, struggling with his first Irish phrases: I am happy. You are sad.
"But you also know why, and I know why," Fleming said. "Everybody knows why."

George Fabyan
George Fabyan
|17 May 1936 (aged 69)
|Burial place
|Forest Hills Cemetery, Boston, Massachusetts
|Fabyan Villa
|Nelle Wright (married 1887-1936)
"Colonel" George Fabyan (1867 – 1936) was a millionaire businessman who founded a private research laboratory.[1] Fabyan's laboratory pioneered modern cryptography, though its initial findings, supporting Fabyan's belief that Francis Bacon wrote Shakespeare's plays, were later disproven by the cryptographers who trained there.
Early life[edit]
Born in Boston to George and Isabella Fabyan, the second child and eldest son of five children, he left home at age 17. Eventually ending up in Chicago, he ran the Chicago office of his tycoon-father's textile business Bliss, Fabyan & Co. from 1895 on. Inheritance from Bliss, Fabyan & Co. provided the financial foundation from which he and his wife, Nelle, established their legacy.
Illinois Governor Richard Yates appointed George Fabyan to his military guard in 1901, giving him the honorary title of Colonel, by which he was generally later known.[2]
In May 1909 Fabyan was awarded the Order of the Rising Sun by the Japanese government for his service to same. Fabyan had spent some time in Japan before 1905, developing relations with Japanese government and business representatives. He also was appointed as a liaison to General Kuroki Tamemoto during the Russo-Japanese peace negotiations (Treaty of Portsmouth) held in Maine in 1905. Between 1907 and 1910, he served as a host for General Kuroki, Baron Komura, and Prince Fushimi during their visits to Chicago.
He and his wife developed a 325 acre country estate in Geneva, Illinois, 40 miles west of Chicago, beginning with the purchase of 10 acres on the west bank of the Fox River.[3] "Riverbank", as they named their estate, featured among other things, a Japanese Garden, a private zoo, a Roman-style swimming pool, a lighthouse, gardens, grottoes, greenhouses, a farm and the research laboratory. They lived on their estate from 1908 to 1939 in a farmhouse remodeled by Frank Lloyd Wright, which they called the Fabyan Villa. This site also contained George's and Nelle's expansive private library and museum.[4]
In 1914 Fabyan purchased and had moved a Dutch-style windmill built c. 1870 from its original farm site in York Center, IL to his estate. Known as the Fabyan Windmill, this 5-story grist mill was restored to working order in 2004.[5]
Baconian theory[edit]
Fabyan supported the Baconian theory, which was popular at the time, that Shakespeare's plays were written by Francis Bacon. He established a cryptologic research group to study alleged ciphers in Shakespeare's work.[1][6] Known as Riverbank Laboratories, it was the first privately owned research facility in the United States.[7]
In 1916 William Nicholas Selig, a film producer, sued Fabyan on the grounds that profits from forthcoming films of Shakespeare's works, along with a film on the life of Shakespeare, would be damaged by Fabyan's claims that Bacon was the author.[8] On 9 March 1916, he obtained a temporary injunction stopping the publication of a book by Fabyan on the subject.[9] Selig was intending to capitalise on the celebrations organised for the upcoming 300th anniversary of Shakespeare's death, which occurred in April 1616. A Cook Country Circuit Court judge, Richard Tuthill, found against Shakespeare's authorship - he determined that the bi-literal ciphers identified by Fabyan's analyst Elizabeth Wells Gallup were authentic and that Francis Bacon was therefore the author of the works. Damages of $5,000 were awarded to Fabyan for the interference with the publication of the book.[10] In the ensuing uproar, Tuthill rescinded his decision on 2 May 1916,[11] and another judge, Frederick A. Smith, dismissed the ruling on 21 July 1916.[12][13] It was later suggested by the press that the case was concocted by both parties for publicity, since Selig and Fabyan were known to be old friends.[14][15]
Elizebeth Smith (later Elizebeth Friedman), a Shakespearean scholar, was employed by Fabyan to work with Gallup. Later, a geneticist employed by Fabyan, William Friedman, joined the effort, initially as a photographer, and then later drawn into the cryptography effort, such that he eventually became the head of the Codes & Ciphers department in Friedman's lab.[16] Both Elizebeth and William went on to have significant careers in cryptanalysis (a term coined by William), and their work became the foundation for what later became the NSA.[17] Decades after working for Fabyan, William and Elizebeth collaborated on a study to discredit the ciphers that Gallup claimed to have discovered. This book won the Folger Shakespeare Library Literary Prize of $1000 in 1955 for its definitive study that is considered to have disproven the claims of all researchers that the works of Shakespeare contain hidden ciphers that disclose Bacon's — or any other candidate's — secret authorship. The study was condensed and published in 1957 as The Shakespearean Ciphers Examined.[18]
World War I[edit]
The Friedmans played a significant role in World War I. Nearly all American military World War I cryptography was done at Fabyan's laboratories. In particular they uncovered a plot against the British by Indian nationalists supported by the Germans. The National Security Agency has recognized Riverbank Laboratories as the birthplace of U.S. cryptology, and honored Fabyan in 1992 with a plaque reading "To the Memory of George Fabyan From a Grateful Government: In recognition of the voluntary and confidential service rendered by Colonel Fabyan and his Riverbank Laboratories in the sensitive areas of cryptanalysis and cryptologic training during a critical time of national need on the eve of America's entry into World War I."[19][20]

Telmex Telcel and Western Union foundations join forces with WPDI to empower youth from the States of Chiapas and Baja California as engineers of peace and prosperity in their communities
We are proud to announce that we have just entered a new partnership with Telmex Telcel and Western Union Foundations to improve conditions for lasting peace and sustainable development in vulnerable areas of Chiapas and Tijuana in Mexico. The objective of the collaboration is to empower young people from these areas by mentoring 200 of them as peacemakers and entrepreneurs and to mobilize our community learning centers to equip another 7,000 with skills in ICTs and entrepreneurship, which will increase their capacity to finds jobs and make a difference in their communities in general.
Activities under the partnership will take place in the context of our flagship program, the "Youth Peacemaker Network" (YPN). This groundbreaking program provides opportunities for youth in conflict- and violence-affected environments to increase their participation in the civic, socio-economic and cultural life of their communities. This is a tried and tested program already implemented in Africa, in South Sudan and Uganda. These places may seem quite different from Mexico in the first place but they actually share somber characteristics as harboring places where armed violence has left and still imposes a deep imprint in the social fabric of local communities. One main victim is the youth of these places: whether the armed violence is caused by gang wars or civil strife, young people are often treated as capable of being only victims or perpetrators of violence. This is a double curse since it often means that the young people of violence-impacted communities will be abandoned to themselves in the present and barred from contributing to the future of their country.
Young people are viewed very differently by WPDI. To us, they have the power to engineer change and transform their communities from the inside. What they need, we believe, is trust from the adult world, which means that we must have the courage to trust them with responsibilities and resources. Our vision is that young people can be instrumental in promoting peace and sustainable development in their communities. In a first phase, we will enroll a group of highly-talented young people from vulnerable areas in Chiapas and Tijuana. Once trained, they will go back into their communities and develop projects with hundreds of local young people, including income-generating projects, twelve of which are planned under the partnership with Telmex Telcel and Western Union foundations. We will also establish community learning centers in these two areas, fully equipped by our partner Ericsson, where young people and others will have access to computers, connectivity to access online resources and daily certified training programs in conflict resolution, arts & crafts as well as vocational trainings in entrepreneurship and ICTs, which will increase their employability.
We salute Telmex Telcel and Western Union foundations who have chosen to endorse our vision. This is a long-term commitment since we are going to work with these young peacemakers and entrepreneurs for the next three years. In the end, this is an investment in a future of opportunity for the youth of Chiapas and Tijuana.

No matter how good people is when it comes to writing press, everyone at some point runs into obstacle or challenge that they have difficulties dealing with. However, there are a few advise for effective essay writing that you can follow.
One thing to realize when thinking about effective essay writing is that each person offers their own way of thinking and their own individual style of writing. The last item you want to do is try to emulate another persons matter associated with writing style. Although in the beginning, this can seem like a good idea, (after all, we all want to i highly recommend you the teacher right? ) Ultimately you'll end up selecting it very difficult to keep up that one style for any length within your paper. You may wind up by means of something that at best, when errors in and for worst sounds like someone else composed.
In short, you may also find that a writing flow will simply never be there.
Similarly, some other tip is to of course keep in mind the rules regarding proper composition form and language people also want to be able to generate in your own voice and this are probably the key things you need to know when it comes to effective essay producing.
Finally, remember that when you want to really achieve effective essay authoring, you need to give yourself the time period to do it but also you must allow yourself the luxury of errors the first time through. One more thing you want to try to do is write the perfect paper in the first revision. If you allow yourself the luxury involving errors or mistakes although you rewrite clean these up, you will find that you will actually get things done that much quicker.

Thanksgiving Culinary Traditions
Dressing or stuffing? Pumpkin or sweet potato pie? Brine, baste, roast or deep-fry the bird? What you consider to be the "correct" answer to these and other culinary questions about our nation's annual Thanksgiving feast depend largely on where you live.
Let California Entertain You
Home to less than 4,000 residents, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California is a wonderland for gourmands, with a jaw-dropping 50+ restaurants situated within its one-square-mile area. If that statistic amazes, consider the little town's location: Tucked away two hours south of San Francisco on the Monterey Peninsula, Carmel-by-the-Sea benefits from the bounty of the Pacific plus ultra-fresh foodstuffs delivered from the neighboring Salinas Valley.
10 Must-Go Chocolate Stops in the U.S.A.
The mere thought of chocolate can bring smiles. Cacao has been used to uplift the spirits of those lucky enough to get their hands on it since it was first discovered. These days, there's great news for all chocolate lovers: Not only can chocolate satisfy sweet teeth, it's chock full of antioxidants and other health benefits—let that fact quell any guilt you may feel about indulging in bars or truffles! To help ensure you're never without a sweet treat—especially on vacation!—trust your taste buds to these 10 drool-worthy chocolatiers and chocolate-making tours across the U.S.A.
10 Foodie Experiences from Classic Movies
"I'll have what she's having" is arguably one of the most recognized lines in movie history. Rob Reiner and Nora Ephron's 1989 "When Harry Met Sally" humorously explores the difference between men and woman and whether or not they can really be friends. Sally, played by Meg Ryan, is depicted as a picky eater who wants things the way she wants them. She's eating a deli sandwich in the classic scene, proof that movie food scenes layer theme into cuisine.
Dining on the Daily Catch in Morro Bay
In Morro Bay, California, an ancient 581-foot-tall volcanic plug known as Morro Rock presides over the quaint fishing village. The odd-looking landmark is the essence of this place. The rock's very existence speaks to these exceptionally nutrient-rich estuary waters where a longtime small fleet commercial fishing industry retains its sturdy sea legs.
Honey Hotels
Choosing overnight accommodations that keep bees on the property can have some sweet benefits: You might get a taste of the honey those bees produce when you order a breakfast biscuit, salad dressed with house-made vinaigrette, glazed veggies or meats, or even a cocktail at the on-site restaurant or bar.

TGS: localizations of moddable fighter EF-12, They Bleed Pixels, Analogue
September 24, 2013 10:28 AM | Lena LeRay
Playism Games, a company which does localization, marketing, and distribution of indie games in both English and Japanese, didn't have its own booth at Tokyo Game Show this year. However, its representatives were on hand to assist their clients with interviews and demonstrations. Most of their clients weren't there on the same days that I was, but the few to whom they introduced me had good things to show.
Quad Arrow's EF-12 is a fully-moddable fighting game, reminiscent of Elecbyte's M.U.G.E.N., but in 3D. Character models, moves, button configurations, fighting rings, even computer AI -- all can be modified without any programming experience. Modification of enemy AI is accomplished using if-then logic in a spreadsheet program. Graphical modifications require the use of a 3D graphics editor such as Blender or Maya, but once models or any other mod files are created all you have to do is drop the files in the appropriate folders. The game reads and incorporates them automatically. The game has been crafted with the ability to emulate the play styles of popular fighting games such as Tekken, Virtua Fighter, and Street Fighter, but with a great deal of flexibility in customization.
I got to play the Japanese version, which is already available on Playism's Japanese web site, and I can tell you that the two characters I tried out played very, very differently. I don't play fighting games that often, so I can't given an in-depth analysis of the two characters' fighting styles except to say that the second one I played only seemed able to attack with her legs. What I can say is that the game itself doesn't have hardly any text in it. What Quad Arrow and Playism are really working to localize for English audiences are the manuals -- they contain all the information on how to mod the game, to do things like changing character behaviors to allow for characters as dissimilar as the ones I tried out.
The game currently doesn't feature online capabilities, but it's something Quad Arrow's Masahiro Onoguchi wants to work towards if possible. There are a couple of big obstacles to doing so; what if, for example, two players don't have the same modded characters installed? It's something he would love to add, but right now multiplayer is only doable locally. That doesn't mean there won't be any online support, however. Quad Arrow and Playism want to build a community around the game. They're considering creating an online hub for mods, and there is a serious possiblity of including well done and popular mods in official builds of the game.
It's a pay-what-you-want game which costs a minimum of $0, so if you're more interested in playing it than modding it, you might consider checking it out now.
They Bleed Pixels
Miguel Sternberg of Candian studio Spooky Squid Games was running demonstrations of They Bleed Pixels at Tokyo Game Show. This, too, has very little in-game text, but there is a lot of flavor text to be localized. Sternberg is hoping that a release in Japan will go well because of the "creepy cute" trend in Japan right now. Personally, I think the creepy cute appeal has a good chance of drawing attention to the game, and if the amount of time the man pictured above spent playing the game is any indication, I think the game has a pretty good chance of doing well in Japan.
Of perhaps greater interest to English-speakers is the fact that in addition to working on Mac and Linux ports of the game, Spooky Squid also is considering creating a sort of training version of the game designed to help people unfamiliar with the genre get into it. Things would start out simple and easy, ramping up in difficulty as it goes along to bring new players up to a skill level capable of tackling the main game. That's a huge undertaking, said Sternberg, because they would have to rework every level individually to do it right.
Analogue: A Hate Story
When Christine Love learned about Korean history, she couldn't imagine what it was like to be a woman in Korea back in the day. What better way to help herself figure that out than to make a game out of the idea? Analogue was localized for Korea some time ago, and soon it will be making its way to Japan. It sounds like it's been an interesting challenge to localize a visual novel written by a Canadian about women's issues in old Korea for a Japanese audience. Love has Japanese fans playing her games in English already, however, and the localization is underway. I got to play the demo myself, and though I didn't get very far, the localization seems very well done to me.

text: nicolaferraro opened a new issue #249: Add support for template endpoint URL: https://github.com/apache/camel-k/issues/249 I would like to write a route as: ``` from("timer:tick") .to("template:out") ``` ... leaving the last endpoint open. Then you can provide the actual value of out in the trait configuration, like: `kamel run -t template.out=knative:channel/a`. The reason why we don't just use placeholder here is that having the actual value in the trait configuration allows to add the required libraries at build time. It will support named endpoint, so we can template sources, sink and patterns with this strategy. E.g. ``` from("template:source") .split().tokenize(" ") .to("template:sink") ``` Then provide the value for "source" and "sink". This is a simpler requirement than using a "routebox-like" strategy for creating "connectors", but it should be enough flexible to create e.g. a CamelSource in Knative.

"We're certainly not denying the fact that he's Latino. It is something that is acknowledged, and we plan to acknowledge it throughout the series," executive producer Eric Guggenheim said at the Television Critics Assn. press tour panel for the show Sunday.
However, executive producer Peter Lenkov admitted that although he considers their writers' room "very diverse," they don't have any Latinx writers because "it's incredibly hard to find writers." The gender breakdown of the writers' room, Guggenheim said, was closer to parity, with four men and three women.
Lenkov said the reboot has the "spirit" of the original 1980s series that starred Tom Selleck, most notably through the "charm" of the titular character.

Cost of being in EU rises to £666 a family
EUROCRATS are to demand an extra £900million from taxpayers next year, taking the annual cost of EU membership to £666 for every family in Britain.
Brussels was accused of gross hypocrisy for planning what one critic branded a "disgusting" cash grab while demanding swingeing austerity measures across Europe.
Yesterday the UK signalled it would press for restraint but no single country can veto the EU Commission's annual budget, meaning the Government would have to build alliances with other like-minded governments to win a vote to block an eye-watering hike.
The Commission's draft budget for 2013 is understood to propose a "substantial" seven per cent, £7.4billion, increase in spending power from this year's budget of 129.1billion euros, or around £107billion. The percentage rise would be double Britain's latest inflation rate and more than four per cent above the EU's cost of living increase.
And it would raise the cost of EU membership for Britain – which contributes 12.4 per cent net of the Brussels budget – by £898million next year to £14billion.
Yesterday the UK signalled it would press for restraint but no single country can veto the EU Commission's annual budget
The EU insisted reported figures were just "speculative" as no figures were yet on the table – and that the money was required to pay the bills for projects being completed in member states.
Conservative eurosceptic MP Douglas Carswell said Britain should refuse to hand over any extra next year.
Conservatives in the European Parliament also pledged to fight the increase "all the way". Tory MEP leader Richard Ashworth said: "The Commission's demands are simply outrageous in the current climate."
An EU Commission spokesman declined to comment on the "speculation" about figures, which are not expected to be agreed until Wednesday. The spokesman insisted the Commission had "little room for manoeuvre" on annual budgets. Talks have already begun on the EU's next seven-year spending framework, for 2014 to 2020.
In February Chancellor George Osborne highlighted his concern over mismanagement of EU funds by refusing to sign off the EU's 2010 accounts in protest at "errors" worth £4billion. The EU budget has now failed to get auditors' clearance for 17 years in a row.
In 2010 Prime Minister David Cameron proposed a tight cap on future EU spending. It helped ensure the EU budget increased by just 2.02 per cent in 2012, a freeze when inflation was taken into account. In 2011 the rise was 2.9 per cent, below the five per cent Brussels had wanted.
In the seven-year budget talks now under way, many EU countries are gunning for Britain's annual rebate on its contributions to the EU, negotiated by Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in 1984 and worth £3.3billion a year.
According to the Office for Budget Responsibility, Britain's net contribution to the EU in 2010-11 was £8.1billion – £320 per household. The EU calculated that in 2010, after taking into account the rebate and project funding Britain gets back from Brussels, the UK's net contribution was £4.75billion.

NYK to Build New Revolutionary Container Hangar
July 30, 2008
NYK has decided to build an innovative, state-of-the-art container hangar, the first of its kind, at the Oi Container Terminal's no. 6 berth, which is leased and operated by the company. This new hangar, which will be built in fiscal 2010 and open from the beginning of fiscal 2011, will improve yard usage, lead to increased efficiency in loading and unloading, and result in operations that are much more environment friendly.
- New Container Hangar Details
Length :150 meters Width :56 meters Area :8,400 square meters Height :31 meters Units :Two Capacity :420 TEUs per unit
Two modern stacker cranes will load and unload the containers. Electric outlets will be fitted for use by reefer containers.
- Advantages of this new container hangar
- Increased efficiency in loading and unloading
a) Containers on the bottom of the stack, which previously could not be reached until those above were moved, can now be easily removed from the bottom of the hangar without first moving any other containers. b) The two stacker cranes for this hangar will be able to handle 48 containers per hour, whereas present two transfer cranes can currently handle 36 containers per hour. c) The combined impact of a) and b) above will lead to a reduction of eight minutes off the current handling time required for each container.
- Improved yard usage
The new hangar will be able to handle 60,000 TEUs per year, which is a 66 percent increase over the current handling volume of 36,000 TEUs per year.
- Environment-friendly
The new stacker crane will run on electric power, thus reducing CO2 emissions by 63 percent. Moreover, use of the diesel-powered transfer crane will no longer be required.
- Increased efficiency in loading and unloading

I am not sure I agree. Is it exact, no. Is it close, very much so. Yes the
cabane struts are not correct since they were designed to facilitate easy
removal of the upper wing. The fuse outline is pretty close. Nose slightly
longer than it should be. Is it Scale Masters, no. With a bit of work (not a
lot) will it do well in Sportsman. I think so. Mine did pretty well last
year at Rhinebeck.
Yes it is light. And yes it gets bounced a bit. So? I would rather have a
light plane that flies well than a 1/4 plane with 25 - 30 oz wing loading!
Mine has about 14. I have no serious trouble here in winds up to 18 mph. In
fact if the wind is right I can an alomost verticle descent.
