The momentum generated in the last days, weeks and months around the importance of tackling climate change should now be put to use to serve the most vulnerable children – those who bear the brunt of climate change today. This is very evident in the East Asia and Pacific region, the world's most disaster prone region.

Derrick Douglas had never known it so bad.
"For this particular period between 2014 and 2015, I think no one expected that sort of harsh drought that we experienced. We [farmers] were not aware that it would have been so devastating," he said.
Douglas, 55, became a farmer after being a teacher for several years, in hope of earning more from his efforts. He cultivates a variety of crops and ground provisions, including scotch bonnet peppers, lettuce, pak choi, carrots, yams and cocoa - on a farm in McNie District in the 'garden parish' of St. Ann.

Top class!
I have not a very wide experience of using vaporizers but I've tried the Hot Box vaporizer before. Plenty compared to that unit is a much more pleasant experience! It's heating up fast and is very easy to use. The heating chamber is of perfect size and the included acrylic grinder is of superb quality actually. Vapor is very nice aswell. Build quality is superb and everything just feels good in your hand. It has a very long cord and that can be both good and bad, I see it as rather good. Also one negative aspect can be that there is no built in stand for the unit so it has to lay down unless you use the included brush to use as a stand. Feels like they could make a v2 of this unit with a fold out stand that is built in. I'd say this product is worth it's price to the maximum.

Finally The French Revolution:
Art and Culture The French Revolution: Art and Culture By: Dizon
Tagle Context The French Revolution was essentially a political revolution
New symbolic forms of political practice:
Instrument for refashioning society
Community relied on reason and nature without reference to past
Mass Propaganda: political mobilization of lower class; everyday life invented to regenerate nation
New languages and symbols
New Republican political class (interaction between rhetorical assumptions and collective political practices)
Constant change and development
Coherence and unity Context Ideal of "liberty, equality and fraternity;" love for land
Pushed for standardization and equality
Society for equal citizens
France divided into departments of equal size and population
The French Revolution was recognized as a turning point in the history of both the destruction and preservation of art Transformation of Cultural Institutions:
1) Schools New schools had same curriculum and books
Church's property was confiscated and this disturbed the school and educational system
Government was forced to recreate a system of schools based on free instruction by teachers (paid by state)
Education suffered because of lack of funds Transformation of Cultural Institutions:
2) Academies Scientific and artistic academies were abolished and taken over by government committees
New metric system was standardized
Popular and Republican Society of Arts replaced Royal Academy of Arts open to artists of all classes Transformation of Cultural Institutions:
3) Libraries Royal library became the National library
Housed the collections of abolished monasteries and academies
Government disposed millions of books with topics of religion, feudalism and royalism 4) Monuments The Louvre museum contained objects and paintings confiscated from homes of émigrés and churches
Erase the memory of old regime by destroying the tombs of the kings Transformation of Cultural Institutions:
5) Government/Politics First Phase (1789-1791): Destruction of royal absolutism
Second Phase (1792-1795): Destroyed the monarchy and created the French Republic
The French national flag changed from the Fleur-de-lis to the Tricolore as a symbol for the abolishment of the old regime Transformation of Cultural Institutions:
6)Re-organization of French society Abolishment of privileges of the nobles and clergy, Legal jurisdiction of noblemen, feudal dues, game laws, and the privileges of provinces and towns.
France was now composed of equal citizens
August 26, 1789, the National Assembly issued the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen (Proclaimed the rights to liberty and property, equality before the law, freedom from oppression, and religious toleration to be natural rights) Transformation of Cultural Institutions:
7) Other facts Culture The French Revolution:
Art and Culture Art Iconoclasm and Vandalism France "Treasure House of Western Art" painting, sculptures and architecture had been used as instruments of social control
Defense of philosophes and royal art ministers: paintings and sculptures were always used by governors of men in order to inspire their subjects towards the religious or political sentiments they desire them to hold
Dilemma of revolutionists: fine arts would not suffer under revolutionary regime, however...
Revolutionists were positive that ancient regime values were false and had to be eradicated Preservation of the Arts Newspaper, L'Année littéraire
Other definite efforts to preserve the French art heritage:
Monuments Commission by the Constituent Assembly
due to the sale of church buildings to private individuals
"artistic loss to the nation"
tasked to create an inventory and collect art worthy of preservation
"Instructions concerning the conservation of manuscripts, charters... monuments of antiquity, and other objects relating to the fine arts found in churches."
certain degree of success in collecting
monuments were displayed Preservation of the Arts Monuments Commission earned high praise by the Constituent Assembly
displayed ideals worthy of their time
"[...] The revolutions of an enlightened people conserve the fine arts, and embellish them, while the fruitful concern of the legislator causes the arts to be reborn as an ornament of the empire." - Barere
The more radical observed that:
Statues = not a work of people but of ministers and courtesans
To build a monument is too costly "Powerful Language of Symbols" "order the destruction of all monuments created during the feudal regime." Destruction of the Arts: "Blind Rage" Francisco de Goya (1746-1828) emotional attachment of Iconoclasts = "blind rage"
attacks directed against liberal institutions rather than against art
Friedrich Schiller: attributed iconoclasm to the lowest sort of people caught up in riotous situations
the term 'Vandalism' was coined Destruction of the Arts "Blind Rage" importance of symbolic objects and their manipulation during the Revolution
In contrast to the Reformation, Revolutionists objected more to the symbolic content than to the images themselves
works could be preserved provided that their symbolizing relationship was broken and reinterpreted
this "symbolic content" that was objected to constituted to a wide spectrum of objects; not just arms, portraits, effigies of the monarch, the members of the nobility and the Church, but ANY WORK Towers were deemed enemies of equality
a whole town could be denied of the right to exist (terror and war)
Lyon was deprived of its name Destruction of the Arts "Blind Rage" The emblems of feudalism, of superstition, toys and spoils of prejudice and arrogance were EVERYWHERE (with the ambition to renovate)
Manifestations of Iconoclasm: The Bastille
Symbol of military threat and royal arbitrariness
Produced profane relics representing the fortress and commemorating its fall Iconoclasm Iconoclasm Examples (The Porte St-Denis in Paris)
Values attached to objects (historical testimonies and works of art = motif for preservation)
Objects exempted from destruction (implied a general validity)
Public museums (privileged places and movable art) Stigmatization of Iconoclasm Destroyers/Iconoclasts:
accused of misusing objects they understood and acting in a way unworthy of the regenerated nation to which they belong
accused of destroying public wealth, defaming the image of Revolutionary France and of working for its enemies Stigmatization of Iconoclasm "Vandalism" was associated with the Terror and became an instrument of its condemnation, even if the secularized and nationalized estates continued to fall prey to their owners The Assembly also reorganized the church by issuing the Civil Constitution of the Clergy;
Made the church a state department, made the clergy swear an oath of loyalty to the nation, and ordered that bishops be elected by laymen);
The property of the church was seized
In 1791, the Assembly issued a new constitution, which made France a constitutional monarchy declaring all citizens equal before the law, abolishing titles of nobility, and made marriage a civil contract Transformation of Cultural Institutions:
6)Re-organization of French society Dress styles of sans-culottes
Attempted to de-Christianize France
Churches were turned into "temples of reasons"
Cult of the Supreme-Being è New universal religion
·Calendar was reformed è First day of the year started from September22,1792
Weeks had 10 days
New culture was rejected by the people played a major role at every stage of the revolution
Goal: to foster, incite conviction/fear, and make irreversible changes
Klaus Herding: total elimination was the only solution: in order to fulfill the demands of the eradication of the 'symbolic content' objection
Richard Wrigley: rightful insistence of transformation and reuse

The drama and culinary delight of caviar bring an Old World elegance to any meal. Here's what you need to know to bring caviar into your home, whether your budget is that of a pauper or a king.
The Basics of Caviar
To carry the name, Champagne must come from a specific region of France. To earn its name, caviar must come from one of three sturgeon breeds (there are 27 worldwide) from the Caspian sea. There are great sparkling wines that are not "Champagne," and there are great fish roes that are not "caviar," but provide an enjoyable facsimile.
Sturgeon caviars share certain flavor characteristics across the breeds (varietals); a taste of the sea similar to the juice of a perfectly fresh oyster, a taste of brine, and occasionally a metallic finish. Varietal flavors differ fish by fish and tin by tin. Each fish's diet, environment, maturity and time of harvest affect the flavor and texture of the eggs. How quickly the eggs are processed, how much salt is used, and how they are cured affect the product. Iranians, for example, use brine, while Russians stir salt in directly.
Serving & Enjoying Caviar
Mother of pearl is the best way to serve caviar. Silver should not be used, as it passes on a metallic taint, but stainless steel, horn, wood and even plastic will do. Accouterments appear abundantly around caviar, perhaps to distract from the minutia of the main dish. But to appreciate caviar's distinct flavors, allow it to stand alone. A spoonful placed on your tongue and crushed against the roof of your mouth should deliver a firm pop and a delightful burst of flavors. Mushy or gooey texture indicates problems in processing or age. And lest you forget, caviar has long been considered an aphrodisiac, so keep that in mind if you're planning a romantic culinary romp.
Caviar Varieties
True Caviars (Imported) - Wild or Farmed
Beluga - The largest freshwater fish on earth produces the largest caviar. Ball-bearing-sized eggs from dark gray to black. Currently illegal in the U.S., the Beluga is in danger of extinction. ($ N/A)
Ossetra - The "Russian" Sturgeon's eggs are the size of BBs. All the colors of camouflage, from brownish gray to dark olive. Flavors range from creamy, almost custardy, to nutty. Salty richness and a taste of the sea. ($200-241 per oz.)
Sevruga - The "Persian" Sturgeon produces small "pinhead" black or dark gray eggs, and some connoisseurs prefer it to Beluga for the more intense flavors. "Fresh, smooth taste," according to Paramount Caviar. Currently in short supply in the U.S. ($222-241 oz.)
Favorites: With Russian imports banned, wild Iranian caviar is the quality king, but farmed production from Europe is close behind.
U.S. Domestic Caviars (Farmed)
Ossetra - White Sturgeon (aka Transmontanus) produces America's "Ossetra." Similar to imported, but rounder and creamier. California Ossetra is typically "graded" by size and color, more for appearance than flavor.
Hackleback Sturgeon - Black, tiny, glistening, pin-head beads. Smooth and custardy, with a slight nuttiness and pleasant salt. Often a favorite for those new to caviar.
Paddlefish (aka Spoonbill) Sturgeon - Sometimes called "American-style Sevruga". Gray to olive green color, small beads. Sharper flavor than Hackleback, favoring salt and sea to cream and egg.
Favorites: Sterling (also marketed as Petrossian) and Tsar Nicoulai, Domestic Ossetra represents excellent value, 85% of the flavor for 1/3 the price. Hackleback and Paddlefish are a small step down in quality for an even bigger step down in price.
Champagne and vodka are tradition-bound choices, but add little beyond ritual. Great champagne and great caviar taste better apart than together.
Saké pairs wonderfully as it should, once we remember that caviar is seafood. The sweetness of ice wines produces a wonderful offset to caviar's salt, as does a chilled Château Julien Rosato.
Roe - Caviar's Cousin
Trout - Pale orange ball-bearing-size beads. Light flavor reminiscent of smoked trout. Firm casing and pleasant liquid burst.
Salmon - Brighter orange (think jello) and stronger flavor than trout. Fish and salt with notes of lox. "Keta" salmon roe (aka "red caviar") is still available from Russia.
Whitefish - Tiny, pin tip, crunchy eggs. Vapid flavor, so this roe is typically infused.
Pairings: Beer brings a nice counterpoint to the smoked fish flavors.
Infused Roes
Simple roes with flavor added - Caviar's spirited cousin, twice removed.
Beet & Saffron Whitefish - Naturally infused red color. Hint of saffron and tiny tad of beet in a salt brine.
Wasabi Whitefish - Pale green. Strong blast of wasabi flavor. Make this your last taste.
Ginger Whitefish - Pale yellow. Ginger is dominant without overpowering.
Truffled Whitefish - Burnished brown. Pleasant truffle flavor. Begs for creative presentation.
Pairings: Infused roes offer novelty and flexibility, creating pairings as varied as your imagination. Wasabi and ginger roe pair well with English stout (Samuel Smith's) and saké (Momokawa Diamond).

|Perfect length for Seba SR80. I had first used a shorter lace for the shell and a separate one for the liner, but then I realized the better way is to lace through holes in shell first and then continue through lace holes in liner, which was probably the intended way by Seba I suppose. The laces have a nice feature, which is a non stretch thread running through the lace fabric, which make adjustments easier.

A CDE Definition
throwaway domain
A registered Internet domain name that is used to temporarily test a new application or for spamming. In the latter case, the domain may last for only an hour and never be used again. See spam.
(1) See Web spam.
(2) Email that is not requested. Also called "junk email," "gray mail," "unsolicited commercial email" (UCE) and "unsolicited bulk email" (UBE), the term is both a noun (the email message) and a verb (to send it). Spam is mostly used to advertise products and sometimes to broadcast political or social commentary.
The term was supposedly coined from a Monty Python comedy sketch in the early 1970s, in which every meal in a restaurant contained SPAM, Hormel's processed meat (in England in World War II, SPAM was always available while other foods were rationed). Spam may also be an acronym for "sales promotional advertising mail" or "simultaneously posted advertising message."
A Social Plague
Like viruses, spam has become a scourge on the Internet as more than 200 billion unwanted messages are transmitted daily. Unfortunately, as an advertising medium, spam produces results (see below). In order to reduce spam for their customers, ISPs have added an enormous number of servers that do only filtering (see spam filter).
On January 1, 2004, the CAN-SPAM act became law in the U.S., which provides severe penalties for spammers, if they can be located (see CAN-SPAM). See image spam, SPIM, SPIT, mobile phone spam, form spam, mail bomb, Joe Job, SPF, letter bomb, spamdexing, Blacklist of Internet Advertisers, munging, RBL, ROKSO, MAPS, spam relay, spam trap, botnet, rogue site and opt-in.
Why Do They Do It?Simple math. Suppose that out of 4,000 spam messages, one person buys something, and the spammer makes USD $1. If two million spams were sent that day, the spammer made $500, and the job took a half hour to set up. A few hours per week could yield $100,000 a year. Is that enough incentive for techie teenagers, or would they rather go back to their paper routes? Of course, consistent revenue is not guaranteed, but there is ample motivation.
Filters Create Even More Spam
As spam filtering becomes more sophisticated, spammers send even more spam to make the same profit, but email address lists can be purchased for very little or hijacked. There is a thriving business selling lists to spammers as well as lists of compromised computers (see zombie). There are even spam service providers that will do all the work (gotta love that entrepreneurial spirit!).
Easy to Rationalize
Spammers justify their existence by citing the huge amount of physical junk mail sent via the postal system, wasting trees and other resources. They also claim advertisers have been polluting the environment with radio, TV, bus and billboard ads for decades. A slight point perhaps, but a weak one.
Nevertheless, a standard for authenticating email could eliminate most spam. Unfortunately, that can take years to implement worldwide (see email authentication).

This charming, one-room pub is small but perfectly formed, offering customers a choice of six cask ales, three real ciders, eight draught keg products including lager, cider, stout, and fruit beer, and a dedicated craft keg wall with ten lines. The Kean's Head also proudly offers an impressive selection of spirits, with 20+ rums, 60+ gins, and 60+ whiskies on the menu.
The Kean's has been at the forefront of Nottingham's craft beer scene for many years, offering a ground-breaking selection of bottled beers from all over the world.

Beer drinkers can enjoy tap takeovers and tasting nights at the Kean's, plus a "break-even" keg once a month, bringing you something rare and wonderful at cost price.
Food at the Kean's Head is fresh, flavourful, and locally sourced. This homecooked fayre menu never fails to satisfy, featuring dishes like homemade courgetti with pesto and halloumi alongside pub classics and European-inspired meals. Served from 11am, the Kean's brunch menu includes Bloody Mary Huevos Rancheros and the lighter classic of smoked Salmon on toast.
The Kean's Head was named after the early 19th Century Shakespearean actor Edmund Kean – infamous for his turbulence and megalomania, and renowned for his ingenious performances in Richard III, Macbeth, and Hamlet. Act V Scene I of the latter, in which Hamlet holds the skull of the king's jester Yorick, is shown on the pub logo. Kean is recorded to have performed at the original Theatre Royal, which was formally located on St. Mary's Gate.

Terry (bookplate, their sale American Art Association/Anderson Galleries, 4 December 1935, lot 126); Alain de Suzannet (bookplate, his sale Sotheby's, 22 November 1971, lot 130).
FIRST EDITION IN BOOK FORM. AN OUTSTANDING PRESENTATION COPY, INSCRIBED BY DICKENS TO HIS FRIEND CHARLES KENT on the dedication page: "Charles Dickens To Charles Kent. Seventeenth November, 1865." As the last number of Our Mutual Friend was issued in November 1865, this copy was apparently inscribed shortly after the complete work was published.
At the age of twenty-two, Charles Kent became editor of The Sun in December 1845. As one of the first journals to publish book reviews, Kent came to know many of the writers of the day and "it was through Kent's review of Dombey and Son that he first met Charles Dickens, who had written asking the editor to express his 'warmest acknowledgements and thanks' to the reviewer. Kent's admission of authorship was the beginning of a lifelong friendship" (DNB). Kent would contribute to Dickens's Household Words and All the Year Round, these articles later being collected as Footprints on the Road (1864, dedicated to Dickens). Kent organized the lavish final dinner before Dickens's 1867 trip to America and wrote of these performances in Charles Dickens as Reader (1872). Kent was the recipient of the last letter Dickens ever wrote, which he presented to the British Museum in 1879. In addition to Dickens, he was friends with Leigh Hunt, the first and second Lord Lytton, Charles Reade, Robert Browning, George Meredith, Wilkie Collins, and Matthew Arnold.

On reaching the conclusion of Chloe Hooper's relentlessly dark first novel, one is left struggling with the incompatible needs - what Miss Hooper might call "core desires" - for a stiff gin and a skip in a meadow with ringleted, apple-cheeked infants. She would certainly not approve of the latter, since her book concerns itself with our need to understand that our children are not the cherubs they seem, but, rather, knowing personages who "understand tragedy in a way adults are unable to, atom by atom".
Miss Hooper's heroine, a primary school teacher called Kate Byrne, is a deeply troubled young woman. Between the cheap sex she has with the father of a pupil, she spends her time obsessing about the local murder of another young mistress, retold in a recently published book by her lover's wife. Consequently she becomes convinced that she too is for the chop.
Threaded into this narrative is another version of the murder, but here retold for children and narrated by Australian animals. One chapter begins:
Terence Tiger reckoned Missy Pink-Princess, the gregarious three-legged tabby who roamed the peninsula's hotels, could well have witnessed something crucial.
We are supposed to like Kate Byrne, for her connection with her pupils and because she is presented as a symbolic victim of the corrupt adult world. But she is not in the least likeable, and I found myself hoping somebody would indeed finish her off. She delivers her opinions in a tone you might find in a postgraduate thesis on child psychology, and in any case they are profoundly undermined by her fantasies - had her lover, Thomas, "cut the fan belt as practice for my throat?"
In this novel of ideas, the easiest to swallow is that children's story books are "the true opiate of the masses". Hooper writes of children, "The idea that they needed to be protected from the truth was surely a way for adults to protect themselves". Another of the novel's "truths" is that true crimes are "deeds" that "are with us", and we read about them "to learn about ourselves". She illustrates this assertion with revolting examples. A young woman's face is smashed to bits, undergarments are found soaked in blood, there is the tale of half a female corpse in the grass, "pelvis tilted upwards". Now, I am perfectly happy to entertain the idea that children are more savvy and intelligent than we silly adults think, but when a novelist didactically attempts to align my psyche with that of a psychopath, using phrases such as "a way of fetishising death", she is asking for trouble.
I did not enjoy this book, and yet I applaud its ambition and originality. It is what Kate Byrne calls a "goodbye-to-childhood book", one you sense Hooper had to write. I await her second.

Work is currently (October 2013) ongoing to implement a series of improvements to Roundhay Road between Roseville Road and Harehills Road junctions. The work is scheduled to be completed before Christmas and includes:
- a peak-period outbound bus, cycle & taxi lane
- the introduction of traffic signals at the Shepherds Lane junction
- the introduction at one-way streets at key locations to facilitate traffic signals
- improvements to and the provision of additional pedestrian crossing facilities
- formalised traffic lanes and turning manoeuvres to improve road safety
- a review of the parking restrictions along this section of Roundhay Road to meet local need.
The council say 'the majority of the works will be carried out during off-peak periods with two-way traffic flows as normal, though lanes will be narrowed. In addition, it may be necessary to utilise 2-way traffic signals during the construction of central islands in order to maintain safety. This will be assessed whilst on site and, if required, done in the early stages of the programme with additional resources to ensure the works duration is maintained.'
Updates on this project can be found www.leeds.gov.uk/roundhayrd. The plan of the works (HDC-716738-TRO-03) is attached to this page.

In the beginning, there was the Encyclopaedia Britannica. And Jim McKay had it with him wherever he went, from Bridgeport to "A Bridge Too Far."
"It was a savior during those early days of 'Wide World of Sports;' you'd be amazed what good, concise articles it has on just about every game known to man," said McKay, on the occasion of the show's 30th anniversary special on ABC Sunday (4:30 p.m.)
What an adventure it has been the last three decades, not only for the veteran anchor of the program, but for viewers who grew up enjoying the full spectrum of sports, often presented in travelogue fashion.

Interview w/ Madden NFL Senior Designer, Josh Looman: Franchise Mode Finally Getting Some Love
Today we are back for the second installment in our three-part interview series with the developers of Madden. In our first interview, we sat down and talked all things art and presentation with Madden NFL Art Director, Michael Young. We had a great time talking with Mike and that made us even more excited to get to our second interview. This time we are chatting with Madden NFL Senior Designer, Josh Looman, to talk about franchise mode and several of the new additions to this year's game.
ZoKnowsGaming: Dynamic Player Performance is set to turn gameplay in franchise mode on its head. What we want to know is what have you done to make sure it doesn't have too much of an affect or too little affect on gameplay?
Josh Looman: Tuning will be the key to this mode, we wanted to make sure that it was noticeable and meant something every week. We didn't want to make it so that if a rookie QB got on a cold streak it was so bad that it made the game unplayable. We have played lots of games to make sure that things are balanced and I think it feels really good right now. We really wanted to capture the element week to week changes in the NFL and I think we did that.
Additional Thoughts: The big thing that I took away from this part of the interview was the fact that EVERY week, EVERY player's ratings will be slightly different. Josh noted that tuning has been a big focus from the start and depending on community response it may require additional tuning. In an interesting side note, did you know that they actually came up with the concept for Dynamic Player Performance five years ago at lunch.
Alright so next we talked player roles. Lots of our readers sent us questions about this and we promised we would ask. Josh confirmed that while a player can qualify for as many roles as their skills make them eligible for they will only ever have a maximum of two of those applied. All the roles have a preset value and the game dynamically applies them in terms of highest value first. So for instance the Tennessee Titan's Chris Johnson might qualify for Feature Back, Offensive Playmaker, and Team Leader. If Feature Back and Offensive Playmaker are more valuable than Team Leader then Johnson will have those two roles applied. Just in case you were wondering, the Injury Prone role is the least valuable role, so if a guy has two roles it will always be the lesser of the two.
We also found out that different roles don't have different value depending on the player, so the attribute bump that you get for having Chris Johnson as your feature back will be the exact same that you would get for turning Knowshon Moreno into one so sorry to disappoint on that. The final thing we asked Josh about player roles was whether or not there were a maximum number of specific roles per team and he answered yes but says it varies by role. A team can only have one Franchise QB or Feature back but they might be able to have multiple players will the Team Mentor or Defensive Playmaker role.
ZoKnowsGaming: The salary cap has always been the bane of some folks existence. You guys have already mentioned some small changes to salary cap, what are they?
Josh Looman: Every year we have to make trade-offs and most years it is the small things that get overlooked. We didn't get a chance to focus on this as much as I would have liked this year but hopefully we will get to it next year. Speaking of the salary cap, last year we had a tough call to make do we default the salary cap to off which would be the most realistic or take another approach. Ultimately we chose to make it easier to work under the cap by adding lots of extra money to play with. Going forward regardless to what happens in real life, Madden will have a cap. This is another area where we spend a lot of time tuning and it's still a work in progress. We want it to be more challenging but still fun.
Next, we wanted to talk to Josh about the all-new scouting system as well as the improvements to free agency. As you all know, scouting has been completely reworked to include combines, pro days and individual workouts. What we wanted to know was whether any of this was interactive or was it all just a bunch of screens. Unfortunately, it's a bunch of screens but Josh said that they plan on developing these concepts in the future so there is a good chance they will become more and more interactive. Interactive or not they will still be key to building your franchise. In each phase you can only choose a few guys to target so you have to be smart about how you focus in on. As the phases progress you can get more and more information about a player, so you get only basic attributes about a player unlocked during the combine, then even more stuff at their pro day, and then if you decide to bring a guy in for an individual workout you unlock everything about them.
He said the that he thought the draft has been too easy in recent years, you would just look at a player's potential bar and that pretty much took all the skill out of it. Josh says that he actually been trying to get it removed for the last few years. He wanted the whole draft process to be more challenging and to make the draft as hard in Madden as it is for teams in real life. The team wanted the fact that you ran a good draft and identified good prospects to mean something, they wanted players to have a sense of accomplishment when it was all said and done.
ZoKnowsGaming: Free agency has been streamlined to be much more rapid with the CPU being much more aggressive. What was done to make sure it's not too fast and overwhelms the player?
Josh Looman: This was a tough thing to balance. Lots of time went into tuning it, I almost wanted it to be too rapid and a little overwhelming. We wanted to create that same feeling that real teams have right before free agency starts, they are waiting to pounce. Players will have to focus in on the players they want and go get them. In the past, I felt like players had an unfair advantage, too much time to just evaluate. This year the first thing you will get is a pop-up, whenever you are ready to go, press start. The bidding notice will start, remember there are lots of players and the shortest time for any player is 1 minute. Don't panic right away, instead figure out what your needs are prior to free agency. Focus in on your key players and put in a bid. There is plenty of time to look at the list and make a decision, never feel so overwhelmed that you don't get a bid in on the guy you want. This year free agency is more frantic than last year, more overwhelming by design, the more you play it, the more you will get used to it. Remember you don't have time offer 35 free agent contacts, target your guys, be smart and get YOUR guy. Sometimes you are not going to make the right decision, it's like real life. We think it's a much more fun experience; you really have to earn it.
As a long time Madden franchise fanatic the thing I really have been waiting for in franchise mode is some way to size up my GM skills against other franchise players. Josh agreed and says he thinks this is definitely something that they need to do in the game at some point. He thinks that franchise mode would really lend itself to something like this, they just need to come up with a good rating system to make it work. As you can tell Josh really agreed with this concept but I wouldn't expect to see it in a game for a few years.
As we prepared to close out our conversation with Josh he reiterated the fact that his goal was to make franchise mode much more of a challenge this year and he thinks he has done that. He said that this year "the CPU is a lot more dangerous and a lot smarter, you need to be on your game". For his part, Josh says that his work for Madden 12 is mostly done and he is now actually already focusing on Madden 13 if you can believe that. That is the highly condensed development cycle they work in though.
Another interview in the books, we want send a really special thank you to Madden NFL Senior Designer, Josh Looman, not just for taking the time to talk to us but for coming in from paternity leave to do it. You guys can find him on Twitter @josh_looman. Don't forget to stay tuned for the third and final installment in the series when we talk all things Madden, with Madden Executive Producer, Phil Frazier.

Federal drug czar William J. Bennett, who praised Gov. William Donald Schaefer's anti-drug efforts as a model for the nation 11 months ago, endorsed Mr. Schaefer's Republican opponent, William S. Shepard, yesterday.
Appearing at a $125-a-person fund-raising breakfast at the posh Center Club atop the USF&G Building at the Inner Harbor, Mr. Bennett criticized the governor for "stiffing" Mr. Shepard by failing to debate him. He said Marylanders deserved a competitive two-party system, but otherwise only made a passing reference to the central Republican charge that Mr. Schaefer is an uncontrollable big spender.
Paul E. Schurick, Governor Schaefer's press secretary, called the endorsement just five days before the election "confusing," noting that "Mr. Bennett has on many occasions praised Governor Schaefer and praised the governor's policies and programs."

CORONA — Cops are on the hunt for two men — including a suspected serial rapist — who allegedly attacked and sexually assaulted a woman near LeFrak City.
One of the suspects, Ibrahima Ragis, 20, is also wanted for two rapes and a robbery in Forest Hills.
According to police the two men confronted a woman, in her 20s, as she walked along the Horace Harding Expressway, near 99th Street, with a shopping cart at 2:30 a.m. on June 22.
Police said that the second suspect walked up behind the woman and sexually assaulted her, but fled when the victim hit him with the cart.
That's when police say Ragis ran up to the victim, threw her to the ground and attempted to rape her. The woman fought him off and Ragis fled.
Police said the victim was taken to a nearby hospital where she was treated for bruising and cuts to her body.
The second suspect is described as 18- to 20-years-old, stands 5-foot-9 and weighs about 150 pounds. Police say he was seen wearing only dark blue basketball shorts.
Police have been searching for Ragis for over a month for a string of rapes and robberies in Forest Hills in May and June.
All of the victims have been women in their teens or early 20s.
His picture has been plastered on the walls of subway stations in Forest Hills and Rego Park and Queens politicians have handed out flyers to warn residents about the rapes.
Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS. The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers Website at WWW.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.COM or texting their tips to 274637(CRIMES) then enter TIP577.

John and Ros made us feel welcome at the very beautiful Village Green. The stay was exactly what we were looking for and fit the description provided by John and Ros. Everything was clean and comfortable and the grounds are amazing. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great activities filled trip just outside of Melbourne.
We had such a great experience staying with John and Ros at the Village Green. From the moment we arrived we were treated to exceptional hospitality. The bunkhouse was much more than a bunkhouse with the pot belly fire, open lounge/dining kitchen area providing a huge family environment. The cricket ground was in excellent condition, even if our skills didn't match those of the ground keeper. On Saturday night John had prepared a large campfire for our group to sit around, catch-up, reminisce and enjoy. The feedback form everyone within our group has had a common theme…….."Best Weekend Ever". John and Ros we can't thank you enough, wishing you all the best for the future. Thanks, Pete.
Thanks John and Ros for a great 3 days. We felt like we belonged right from the start with the quick cricket tour. It was great to have a group as large as ours under the same roof. (16) The wood heater was amazing. Loved the mountain climb, a bit of effort but even the 4 year old made it The Landcare grudge cricket match was a bonus. We enjoyed the few games we had on ground. Have some great family photos to take to Europe for the year.
The hosts, Ros & John were very welcoming. They accommodated our family at late notice even with some delays caused by Airbnb processing. We really enjoyed our stay at the Pavilion and it was a wonderful break from the city. Peaceful mornings and fabulous scenery of the rolling hills. My son was delighted to have met and patted Tom (resident horse), which was a real bonus. He also got to see wildlife at night: a wombat and many Kangaroos. Warning: drive very slow on local roads at night or avoid altogether if you are not familiar with the Australian countryside. Ros gave us some local tourist advice, which made our time in the area more valuable. We had dinner at a pub in Broadford and lunch in Yea. Altogether a very memorable trip.

Savior! I've no one else to tell --
And so I trouble thee.
I am the one forgot thee so --
Dost thou remember me?
Nor, for myself, I came so far --
That were the little load --
I brought thee the imperial Heart
I had not strength to hold --
The Heart I carried in my own --
Till mine too heavy grew --
Yet -- strangest -- heavier since it went --
Is it too large for you?

Jim Jennings' cheap flight turned expensive Tuesday.
When ValuJet suspended operations at midnight Monday, Jennings' ticket to Memphis suddenly had about as much buying power as Confederate currency after the Civil War.
ValuJet refunded his $99 fare. But it barely put a dent in the $424 the Tennessee man spent to fly home on USAir.
"ValuJet said, `You're on your own.' I had no choice but to pay the extra money," said Jennings as he waited at Newport News/Williamsburg International. "I told them I wouldn't ever fly ValuJet again."
Jennings was one of dozens of local passengers who scrambled to get refunds or get home after the Federal Aviation Administration pulled the plug on ValuJet.
Airline analysts predict that when the scrambling stops, major carriers will raise fares in ValuJet's absence and budget-conscious passengers will stop flying and start driving again.
"A lot of people who flew ValuJet flew with them because the price was low, not because they had to get somewhere," said Michael Boyd, president of Golden, Colo.-based Aviation Systems Research Inc. "These are the people who saw a ValuJet ad to Atlanta for $59 and decided to go there. The fares are what created the demand.
"They will drive themselves or not go at all."
Boyd estimated that ValuJet boarded about 250,000 people in Atlanta every month. "About two thirds of that will evaporate," he said. "In Newport News, if ValuJet isn't there, most of those people aren't going to be flying."
ValuJet passengers Jackie and Bonnie Belt decided to rent a car and drive home to Dallas when ValuJet's sudden demise left them stranded in Newport News. "We got $236 back," Bonnie Belt said. "We can't fly for that price. It would have cost us $1,000 to fly back on USAir."
Walk-up fares typically cost two or three times as much as tickets bought several weeks in advance. USAir spokesman Paul Turk said his airline had agreed to accept ValuJet tickets on a space-available basis, but could not explain why some stranded ValuJet passengers had been asked to pay extra to book last-minute USAir flights.
The Belts decided to cut short their weeklong vacation, planned in part to meet their new grandson, and return to Texas.
"It's going to take us three days to get there," Bonnie Belt said. "We'll have to leave on Friday. We'll even miss something they had planned for Saturday for us."
So far, travel agents said, major carriers haven't raised fares. And USAir's Turk said he didn't know whether his airline would increase prices anytime soon.
Boyd doubts that ground transportation companies like Greyhound and Amtrak will snag many ValuJet passengers. Amtrak spokesman Steven Taub said, "it is really too early at this point to tell how reservations are doing."
But executives at budget carriers such as Orlando-based AirTran, which flies into Norfolk and Richmond, and Air South, a Columbia, S.C.-based airline that will offer cheap fares from Norfolk to New York, Jacksonville and Chicago starting Thursday, are eager to fill ValuJet's void.
AirTran spokesman Eric Hanson couldn't predict how many ValuJet passengers will turn to his airline in the wake of the Atlanta-based carrier's "unfortunate shutdown."
"ValuJet did an excellent job in bringing new travelers to Newport News," he said. "We believe that our service is very similar. If they don't have the option of going to Newport News, I think they could look to Richmond and Norfolk if their destination was Orlando.
"We certainly welcome those passengers."
Budget-conscious passengers already have flooded Air South reservations agents with calls, said Dennis Crosby, Air South's vice president of airline services. Since the FAA announced its decision to ground ValuJet, call volume at Air South's reservations center has jumped 50 percent, he said.
"We're finding flights this morning with every last seat filled," Crosby said.
Air South serves several of ValuJet's primary markets, including Atlanta to Jacksonville and Atlanta to Miami. Crosby predicted that Air South's Jacksonville-to-Norfolk route also will get more passenger traffic.
"We're glad to have them come fly with us," he said.
One airline analyst wasn't surprised other budget carriers had picked up ValuJet's passengers. "They are available," said Barbara Beyer, president of AVMARK, an Arlington-based aviation consulting firm. "They do have the capacity, and they are offering low fares."
Most budget carriers won't be hurt for long by the bad publicity that has shrouded ValuJet since its May 11 crash in the Florida Everglades, Beyer said. "Right now they are being tarred with the same brush," she said. "In the longer term, people don't tend to focus on that. They tend to look at their own travel plans and the cost of traveling. They clearly recognize that this was an accident, that air transportation is safe. They know that the safety requirements are the same for the start-up carriers."
However, passengers who try to ferret out deals offered by major carriers might have a tough time, Beyer said.
"An awful lot of capacity is already booked for the summer," she said. "This has been an exceptionally good summer for advance bookings. This is the first really excellent year since the recession, and basically people have bought their new cars and replaced their washing machines. They have a few extra cents to take a family vacation."

Maersk Lines Limited adds more U.S.-flag ships
Maersk Line, Limited (MLL) announced today that it has enhanced its U.S. flag capacity with a weekly U.S. flag service to the Middle East.
MLL is a global, provider of logistics, maritime and transportation services to U.S. government agencies and their prime contractors. Based in Norfolk, Virginia, it has provided the U.S. government with transportation and maritime services for every major military operation from the Vietnam War to those now underway in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Its parent company is A.P. Moller - Maersk.
MLL has taken several strategic actions to improve customer service, including the introduction of three new U.S.-flag container vessels.
Two of these three G-class containerships, the MAERSK MONTANA and the MAERSK OHIO, have already sailed their maiden voyages as U.S. flag vessels. On August 21, MLL will flag the MAERSK IOWA to complete the expansion of the service. The addition of the three vessels, all built in 2006. will allow Maersk to offer greater frequency, capacity and reliability to U.S. flag customers on the MECL1 route.
"These vessels represent a significant investment in the U.S. flag fleet and will shape the future of MLL's U.S. Flag Liner Business," said John Reinhart, President and CEO of Maersk Line, Limited. "The changes announced today signal Maersk's ongoing commitment to better serve our U.S. flag customers."
Reinhart credited the leadership of MLL's partners in labor, the U.S. Maritime Administration, the U.S. Transportation Command, and the U.S. Coast Guard for their support in making these investments and improvements a reality.
The new MECL1 service route will begin each week with port calls in Newark, Norfolk and Charleston before crossing the Atlantic. The first foreign port of call will be Cagliari, Italy, which will serve as a relay point for cargo out of Houston on the West Med service.
After Cagliari, the MECL1 will now call on Port Said, Egypt. This port was added to support customers previously served by the Eastern Mediterranean service route, which is being phased out. Relays to Alexandria, Egypt; Ismir, Turkey; and Haifa, Israel will be handled through APM Terminals' operation at Port Said, helping to improve service levels to East Med destinations. The route will complete its outbound route with calls in Salalah, Oman; Jebel Ali, UAE; Port Qasim, Pakistan; and Nhava Sheva, India. These stops are the same as the current MECL1 route.

Exterminator in Washougal
It is likely that at some point in the future you will require a pest control treatment completed on your property, whether this is within the home or in the yard. It might be as a result of the larger pests, such as mice or rats, entering the home or much smaller bug issues, such as an infestation of ants. Irrespective of the pest problem it often benefits to call on the services of a professional pest control contractor in Washougal WA to make sure a problem is dealt with as soon as possible.
Hiring the services of a skilled and qualified pest control expert provides numerous benefits over self-attempting to eradicate pest and bugs, such as ants, spiders, cockroaches, squirrels, and rodents, at home. A competent pest controller has the knowledge to prevent and resolve most infestation issues, while also being able to take action in emergency situations. Once on the scene, a pest controller is able to determine the culprit for the damage and advice on the best cause of action to eradicate the problem.
The advantages of using a professional contractor are wide-ranging. An expert exterminator is able to provide an in-depth inspection and evaluation of the property to find the potential pest problems and advice the right cause of action to take. A pest controller will also have access to chemicals that are a far-sight more effective at eradicating problems while also being more friendly to the exterior and interior of a property. They also give advice on what steps need to be taken to secure a property and prevent future infestations.
To completely eliminate a problem, a Washougal Washington pest inspector will provide an extensive inspection of the property. This is likely to involve examining each area of the home to establish the parts that might be at risk or have already been infested. They might also inspect the area to determine other pests that might be within close proximity to the property. On completion of the property review, the professional pest controller is able to offer a choice of services dependent on the type of pest and extent of infestation. Services offered might consist of pre-treatments, pest termination or removal, cleansing the infected areas, as well as repeat visits if required.
A further advantage to using the services of the pro pest controller is the high-strength treatments and chemical available to them. Many of the products available at a local DIY store aren't that potent and can take several repeat treatments before making any noticeable difference. Professional services are also able to offer preventative treatments over a desired period of time, which is perfect for those that want long-term protection in place.

Some Common Q & A's
Bed Bugs? Exterminator?
I Think I Have Bed Bugs, And I Wanted To Know What The Exterminator Will Do And How Long It Will Take.
Ie, He Will Fumigate The House For X Days.
Only your exterminator can make that determination.
Pets, if you have pets, thats a complicating factor.
Could be fleas, could be lice, bedbugs etc.
Most critters and their larvae cannot survive a trip through the washer and a dryer on a hot setting.
If your mattress is old, then maybe it's time for it to go too.
Time for a serious house cleaning, evaluate possible causes, get a exterminator in there and get all of your bed things through the laundry.

How Much Does Pest Controls Cost?
People Who Lived On Our House Infested Us With Bugs How Much Is It To Get Rid Of Them
Depends on how much of an infestation there is. You can do a simple smoking which will cost about 80 bucks, or you might have to do an advanced full house smoke which can cost about 350 dollars and leave you out of the house for a while. If you are lucky a few traps can be set and they can spray the place down for about 60 dollars. Unless it takes him a few hours , then he will charge for labor which can cost 20 an hour ! >.<!!!
Can I Leave Food In House For Flea Extermination?
Getting Carpets Taken Care Of, Do I Need To Remove Food?
No, but everything should be in closed cupboards or in the fridge, or at least covered.
The flea-bombs make a sort of mist that's heavier than air, so it spreads out on the floor in a thin layer. A tiny bit of it gets into the air and settles on everything in the room, but it's too small an amount to worry about. But you can at least avoid eating it by closing off food or covering it.
What Is A Conventional Loan? Does He Require Home Inspection For Pest?
conventional is regular bank loan. just the ordinary type.... and yes they require pest inspections and also home inspection, and someone to inspect the house to see if it matches the price your asking.

Alex will be screening films like 'Nebraska' and 'August: Osage County' at this year's TCFF.
Tag Archives | TCFF
TCFF QUICK TAKES: 'It's a Disaster,' 'Dust Up,' 'Not Fade Away,' 'Dead Dad'
Alex and Justin provide brief reviews of four Twin Cities Film Festival films.
TCFF REVIEW: 'Silver Linings Playbook' (2012)
Despite its shallow script, 'Silver Linings Playbook' has some solid performances and stylish direction worth bragging about.
TCFF REVIEW: 'Finding Home' (2012)
Gripping, complex and perhaps even brave in its choices, 'Finding Home' is a diamond for which scouring the rough is quite worthwhile.
TCFF REVIEW: 'The Iran Job' (2012)
'The Iran Job' brilliantly uses basketball as a framing device to put a human perspective on the revolution in Iran.
TCFF REVIEW: 'Stag' (2012)
'Stag' is less mean-spirited than many of its contemporaries in the bromance comedy sub-genre, but it's not that much funnier.
TCFF REVIEW: 'Quartet' (2012)
Dustin Hoffman's first feature 'Quartet' is a loving ode to the British actors and musicians of yesteryear. For many, that will be enough.
TCFF REVIEW: 'The Sapphires' (2012)
'The Sapphires' tackles racial injustice with a song and a smile, and somehow pulls it off without feeling glib.
2012 Twin Cities Film Festival Line-Up and Preview
Justin and Alex will be covering the 2012 Twin Cities Film Festival. Check out our schedule of the many movies being screened!

A note from Paolo Cantele:
I've just returned from the U.S. where Vias Imports, our importer for the U.S. market, just finished up its annual portfolio tasting with all of the wineries it imports.
The tour made three stops: New York, Boston, and Scottsdale.
My family and I have been really happy with the U.S. sales of our Salice Salentino Riserva 2009. My impression is that what's happening in the U.S. is similar to what's happening in many European markets: wine lovers are looking to maximize the price-quality ratio in the wines that they buy and our Salice is a great value.
But I've also seen that higher-priced wines are also doing well, like our Amativo, one of our top sellers in the North American market.
This year's tour marked Vias' 30th anniversary.
Congratulations and heartfelt thanks to everyone at the Vias team. And thanks to all our friends in the U.S. for making it such a great trip for me!
