BIOS and Windows Settings - Windows Media Center HTPC Build - Part 3
HTPC Build - Part 3
Going to be tackling software next. This will be broken down into many parts.
First a couple of things to do in BIOS. If you using onboard graphics, make sure that you select onboard in BIOS menu under Primary Graphics Adapter (may be different for each motherboard). Also I would recommend disabling onboard HD Audio and enabling Onboard HDMI HD Audio. Last thing is to Enable USB Keyboard/Remote Power On so you are able to wake from sleep with Remote Control.
Next we are going to setup audio devices and sound output.
1. Open up sound in control panel.
2. I would delete everything on the playback menu except for your main audio. For mine, the one I kept was my receiver (TX-NR809) Intel Display Audio. I also made this my default device. (Highly recommend not installing or uninstalling any audio drivers, such as Realtek).
3. Click on Configure. I received advice to set up audio as Stereo here (regardless of how many speakers you have). Don't worry, we will get surround sound once we set it up properly in WMC. This supposedly helps to resolve handshake issues. Click test and make sure you hear sounds.
4. Next click on properties. Under advanced tab you can select default format. I selected 24 bit, 44100 Hz (studio quality). Again, test this to verify your computer/receiver can handle this and output sound correctly.
5. Under exclusive mode, check the boxes next to "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" and "Give exclusive mode applications priority". This will vary from person to person. This is needed to get HD audio if you use plex and also seems to work well with WMC. If you use XBMC you need to experiment because I had to disable exclusivity mode when running that.

Bees delay Charlotte flight for 2 hours
Bees delay Charlotte flight for 2 hours
Some US Airways passengers in Charlotte were stuck on a plane for more than two hours Wednesday due to bees.
The plane was scheduled to take off for Indianapolis around 1:15 p.m., but it didn't take off until around 4 p.m.
A gate agent noticed bees gathering around a tug that was going to push the plane away from the gate, US Airways officials said. The plane was held at the gate, and a beekeeper was called in.
Everyone remained on the aircraft during the delay.

Bombing victim wants suspect to 'get better'
Bombing victim wants suspect to 'get better'
An Iowa woman who lost her hearing when a pipe bomb in her mailbox exploded 11 years ago says she hopes the suspect can someday be released and live happily.
Delores Werling of Tipton says she has no "ill feelings" for Luke Helder, even though she still has problems hearing and with a tooth knocked out in the blast.
Helder has been committed for treatment since 2004 after being declared mentally unfit to stand trial. Investigators say he placed 18 bombs in mailboxes in five states in May 2002 and six detonated, injuring Werling and five others. A judge says he'll order a new competency hearing for Helder this year.
Werling says she's not particularly interested in seeing Helder stand trial and just wants him to get well.

Schools want to stay together
By Rudy Coggins
Published in Sports on January 25, 2012 1:48 PM
GREENVILLE -- Keep us together, please.
Athletics directors and school administrators from Wayne County made that plea during a realignment meeting conducted by the N.C. High School Athletic Association on Tuesday morning at East Carolina University.
Schools in all classifications from the eastern part of the state voiced their concerns over the Association's two realignment proposals. A majority favored the computer-generated draft which had no split conferences and opposed the Association's submission that included split leagues.
Wayne County emphatically vetoed the split model that places Charles B. Aycock, Eastern Wayne and Southern Wayne into a seven-team Classes 3-A/4-A league which includes Pitt and Craven County schools. The three schools collectively composed a letter to the Association describing their concerns over money, travel and academics.
"For the first time in recent history, we have enough 4-A schools in the mid- to northeastern regions of the state to form leagues without split conferences," Wayne County officials argued in their letter sent to the Association. "The first draft proposal kept many of the conferences very similar to what we have now. We feel this proposal is best suited for all schools involved... .
"These split conferences put an increased amount of travel on the small schools, while also placing them at a competitive disadvantage."
The three schools are currently members of the Eastern Carolina 3-A Conference that includes North Lenoir, South Johnston, Cleveland and Triton. The longest trip for any Wayne County school is to Triton, which is located in Erwin.
Wayne County officials devised a mileage chart that states Aycock, Eastern Wayne and Southern Wayne would experience at least a $20,000 per year increase in travel expenses in the proposed split conference. Additional class time would be missed and student-athletes would arrive home later from road games.
Charles Davis, athletics director at Aycock, said the 4-A schools -- J.H. Rose, D.H. Conley, South Central and New Bern -- had no qualms with either the computer-generated or Association-based draft. However, they requested not to be placed with the Wilmington schools again, but that issue was never tabled during the meeting.
West Craven filed an appeal to stay in the Coastal Conference.
"All we can do is appeal, express our concerns today in person and in writing, which we have done," Davis said. "The question comes in, what are you going to do with the 4-A schools? It's a hard thing to read whether (the proposal) was well-received or not. Hopefully it was, but I have no idea."
Small county systems have always had to venture outside their county to find non-conference games in every sport, which leads to more travel costs.
Historically, Wayne County schools have booked games with at least three to four different counties each season just to fill their respective schedules. In football, schools are required to sign two-year contracts with opponents for home and away contests.
Stretching the schedule further than your own backyard could lead to financial trouble such as the loss of gate receipts. Natural rivalries fizzle out because evenly-matched programs with similar student populations no longer play each other on a consistent basis.
The situation would definitely affect playoff berths in every varsity sport, most notably football. From 2005 to 2008, the 3-A teams involved in a split league with the Pitt County schools and New Bern were a combined 6-34 against the 4-A competition in football alone.
"(A) reduction in playoff appearances and loss of natural rivalries would be financially devastating to our already dwindling resources," county officials stated. "Historically, lower-classification teams in a split conference rarely play for conference championships. Over time, the morale of the student-athletes, the coaches and the surrounding communities dwindles from being continually over matched.
"As morale drops, participation will fall, ticket sales will drop and Booster Club sponsors will leave. This will leave the schools with a terrible and devastating financial burden."
North Lenoir is dropping to 2-A and will leave the ECC.
Smithfield-Selma filled that vacancy in the SAS draft and Davis said that Corinth-Holders, a new school in Johnston County, would also be added to make the ECC a seven-team league. Triton would exit the ECC and stay closer to its Harnett County brethren.
Johnston County officials have lobbied to keep their schools together. But another proposal pushes West Johnston and Clayton -- two 4-A schools -- into a conference with Rose, Conley, South Central and New Bern.
"According to other schools we talked to in split conferences, ticket sales dropped and whatnot," said Jabo Fulghum, athletics director at Eastern Wayne. "(Staying in the ECC) would help us as far as being more competitive. It's hard to tell, but it just depends (about the split league). There will be certain sports that can hold their own and I'm sure that will vary from school to school depending on the sport.
"We'll play where we have to play. We're going to do the best we can and accept whatever they give us."
In each of the last three realignments, Wayne County schools have been shifted in all directions. County officials hope there is no movement this time and they can make one more appeal in mid-March, if necessary.
The Association will finalize the realignment in May.

Pirates are generally a bunch of ill-mannered yobs but the Piranas take it one step further. Yet, ever since she was little, all Rhed ever wanted was to join the crew of the fearsome Capitan Bloodh. So she disguised herself as a man to be taken on, and only revealed her true identity once she'd proved herself as an indisputable member of the team.
If Rhed Cr wins the fight, the player controlling Rhed Cr will win 3 Life points at the end of the round.
The opponent's clan Bonus, if activated, is cancelled.
Clint City, day.

Satriani Vs. Coldplay Who Wins…? – this story broke about a month ago of Joe Satriani suing Coldplay over the melody line of their hit song. So who is right and who is wrong here ? I don't really know that part of it, I know them both and to be honest don't want to take sides. But in the end I think the true winner from Joe's suit is artists in general. Some one stood up and drew the line in the sand once again for the protection of creative property. The last decade has seen the errosion of artists rights, protection and revenue and finally someone has pushed back. Whatever the outcome its a start making people think "hey you steal, use, or rip off my melody line or the whole song by download" you might be in for a fight. Click on the photo to watch the video !

Luis Suárez's cunning in the penalty area rescued a point to keep Liverpool in the top four of the Premier League. With his side trailing to a game Aston Villa, in the 52nd minute Suárez galloped into the box in pursuit of an over hit forward pass from Steven Gerrard. As Villa's keeper Brad Guzan advanced, Suárez flicked the ball beyond his dive and everyone in the stadium knew what was coming next. There was the slightest of contact and the Uruguayan ensured a positive outcome with the kind of exaggerated tumble that would earn him maximum points on Tom Daley's Splash.
"Brad used his experience to pull his arm away," said Villa's manager Paul Lambert of the collision. "But the referee's got a split-second decision to make."
"It was," said his opposite number Brendan Rodgers, "a Uruguayan penalty."
Lambert may have been philosophical, but how the Liverpool owner John Henry, at Anfield for the first time this season, must have been relieved by his best player's initiative. Sitting in the front row of the directors' box, for 45 minutes Henry must have wondered about the accuracy of the reports he was getting across the Atlantic of Liverpool's coruscating first half of the season. This was not the performance of a side apparently in contention for the title.
"I didn't think we were anywhere near our level in the first half," was Rodgers's assessment. "But you have to give credit to Aston Villa. I thought their front two were excellent."
From the off Aston Villa appeared determined to spoil Henry's visit. In the first minute, Gabriel Agbonlahor hinted at what was to come when he burst on to Christian Benteke's shrewd flick, and drove at Simon Mignolet. His shot, however, slipped past the post. Villa continued as if determined to follow up their victory here last season. With the debutant Ryan Bertrand marauding down Liverpool's right, and with Agbonlahor's pace constantly alarming Kolo Toure and Martin Skrtel, the visitors were in control.
Then, in the 27th minute, a clearance from defence found its way to Benteke, who held the ball for a moment before sending Agbonlahor in behind Toure with a deliciously inviting pass. The erstwhile England forward stretched away from the Ivorian, crossed and there was Andreas Weimann, to slide in the goal. He looked a stride offside, but it was a neat finish.
For the watching Henry, worse was soon to follow. Just eight minutes later, Agbonlahor managed to be first to Karim El Ahmadi's pass down the line and swung in a cross which Mignolet, confused by Skrtel's presence, merely slapped on to a surprised Benteke. The Villa man – recently bereft in front of goal – stilled his astonishment at such a gift to stoop and head in the second.
"I thought in the first half we should have been out of sight," said Lambert. "I thought we played better this year than we did last year, when we won 2-1."
Perhaps inspired by the owner's presence, it was then that Liverpool's man of the season decided action was required. It had been a frustrating half for Suárez. His flicks and feints weren't being read by colleagues, passes to him were too long, he suffered the indignity of being elbowed in the side of the head by Villa's full back Leandro Bacuna. But even when stewing in fury, Suárez is capable of changing things. In first-half stoppage time, with Villa supporters giving a cheery olé! to a sequence of passes by their side, he suddenly emerged from his side's trough. Galloping at the Villa defence he speared a pass at Henderson, whose beautifully timed back heel sent in Daniel Sturridge to flick the ball over Brad Guzan.
Suárez set about Villa in the second half with his customary dash. In the 52nd minute he charged into the area, Guzan approached him and the inevitable ensued: Steven Gerrard dispatching the penalty. "I thought it was a penalty, once he's touched it round him, his body's made contact," reckoned Rodgers.
By now, the view from the directors' box was growing more comfortable. Without ever dominating, Liverpool appeared to be finding their rhythm. Sterling began to gallop, Sturridge was full of tricks, Henderson took control of the midfield. Liverpool's sense of renewal would have been encouraged by the sight of Agbonlahor limping off to be replaced by Grant Holt to make his Villa debut. The former Norwich man, on loan from Wigan, has his qualities. But winning a sprint against Toure isn't one of them.
It seemed from there Liverpool must win to send the boss home to Boston happy. Yet, somehow the final onslaught never came. Villa began to seize more of the possession, getting the ball more frequently into Holt and Benteke, killing off the game as Liverpool simply could not make their resurgence pay. The closest they came was in the 75th minute, when Suárez fizzed a free kick from forty yards just past Guzan's post. When Sturridge in a position to win it, he shot tamely at the Villa keeper, the home fans began to pour for the exits, their team's title credentials undermined by Villa's insistence. As they left, the visiting fans were chanting long and loud at the delicious arrival at a point few can have anticipated.
Liverpool 4-2-3-1 Mignolet; Johnson, Toure, Skrtel, Cissokho; Gerrard, Henderson; Sterling, Coutinho (Lucas 45, Allen 66), Suárez; Sturridge. Subs Jones, Alberto, Aspas, Moses, Kelly.
Aston Villa 4-3-1-2 Guzan; Bacuna (Sylla 61), Clark, Vlaar, Bertrand (Luna 81); Westwood, Delph, El Ahmadi; Weimann; Agbonlahor (Holt 49), Benteke. Subs Steer, Helenius, Albrighton, Gardner. Booked Bertrand, Bacuna, Clark, El Ahmadi.

Alan Jay Wildstein (born January 7) is the president of The Alan Jay Automotive Network, open since 1992.
Early Life
Alan Jay Wildstein was born in Coral Gables, Florida. When Alan was 15 he started working at the family business, Tropical Chevrolet. He held several different roles throughout his years there until college at Northwood University in Midland, Michigan. Graduating in 1989 with his BBA, BBA Business and Social Science degrees, he returned to Tropical as a Sales Manager and then General Manager. In 1992, Alan moved his family to Sebring, Florida and started his first automotive dealership.
Alan started with one dealership and has increased his Network to include several different brands. Serving Highlands, Hardee and Hendry Counties, Alan Jay Automotive Network handles the sales and service for 16 different brands. Not only is Alan heavily involved in the auto industry but he has other business entities including Gold's Gym - Sebring, Sebring Aviation Services, The Melting Pot Restaurant, Grillsmith Restaurants Group - as partner and Sebring Food Mart, LLC, as a managing member.
Alan is currently on the board of trustees for Highlands Regional Medical Center. He is a member of the Greater Sebring Chamber of Commerce, Lake Placid Chamber of Commerce and Avon Park Chamber of Commerce. Alan is a member of the United Way Alexis de Tocqueville Society. Over the years Alan along with Alan Jay Automotive Network has won a large number of awards for various accomplishments.
Achievements / Contributions
It has been a passion of Alan's to give back to the community and be an example to others and his family. He lives his life based on a quote by Winston Churchill he heard long ago, "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give". He continues to strive to make the community a better place for everyone, not expecting any rewards in return.
Alan continually supports all efforts to improve the quality of life and education for the children of Highlands County Florida. A few of the many Councils and Foundations he contributes to are Children's Services Council and Foundation, Children's Advocacy Center, Avon Park Florida Youth Academy, Boy Scouts of America, Boys and Girls Club, Fred Wild Elementary - adopted school, Drivers' Education at 3 different schools and the Children's Car Seat Safety Program - Inspection/Replacement Program.
In 1998 the "Wheels for A's" program was initiated. This program has given one deserving graduate from 5 different high schools a low mileage, economical vehicle for commuting to and from college or work. The program has given away 64 cars to date, 2016 will mark the 69th car given. There are many stories of students that had a very real need for a vehicle and this helped them have the ability to go to college. Another worthy program that was initiated between Alan Jay Automotive Network and The Greater Sebring Chamber of Commerce is the Alan Jay Automotive Network & Greater Sebring Chamber of Commerce Scholarship Fund. This program is for the students that receive the "Student of the Month" award at their high school, they are then eligible to receive this award.
His efforts do not stop there. He has several other institutes he contributes to in several different ways. Habitat for Humanity is close to Alan's heart. In 2001 an employee and her family were Habitat for Humanity home candidates. The employee and her husband were struggling to find the time to do the requested "sweat hours" to complete the home while trying to still work every day. Alan donated $35,000 towards the construction costs of the home. This donation helped push the construction forward and made it possible for them to receive their home approximately 12 months earlier than scheduled. Alan has then donated funds to build more than 16 Habitat for Humanity homes in Highlands County, Florida.
Alan instills in each of his employees the need to help with community projects. The United Way Day of Caring is another exceptional event that several of the team members get together and spend the day cleaning or repairing local nonprofits. As a 9/11/01 initiative, Alan Jay Automotive Network dealerships donated $100 for every vehicle sold. The Red Cross Relief received $45,600 for that effort to give back after the tragedy. There are a great number of smaller donations that are given throughout the year starting back in 1992. Alan strives to make sure that he gives back to the community that supports his family and his employees.

Roughly one out of every 37 to one out of every 70 sunlike stars in the sky might harbor an alien Earth, a new study reveals. These findings hint that billions of Earthlike planets might exist in our galaxy, researchers added. These new calculations are based in data from the Kepler space telescope, which in February wowed the globe by revealing more than 1,200 possible alien worlds, including 68 potentially Earth-size planets. The spacecraft does so by looking for the dimming that occurs when a world transits or moves in front of a star.
When it comes to the 100 nearest sunlike stars within a few dozen light years, these findings suggest that only about two might have Earthlike worlds. Still, Catanzarite did note that red dwarfs might host Earthlike planets as well, and that such stars are far more common than sunlike stars. Although researchers will find it much harder to detect an Earth-size planet transiting in front of dim red dwarfs, scientists are currently trying to detect such planets around these stars by the gravitational tugs they would exert on each other.

Nice find!

I come from a really fractured, dysfunctional family, but even so, some of my best memories growing up were spent around the table w/ my folks and my brother playing a bunch of the 'mass market' games of the 1980's (Risk, Payday, Life, etc.). During my highschool years, I was heavy into sports, but I also was on the chess team. The gaming continued when I joined the USMC in 1993 and while I didn't play many board games during my 9 active-duty years, we played a bunch of card games. Everything from Spades, Hearts, Tonk, Texas Hold'em, and finally, Magic the Gathering, were popular with me and the fellas. When I left active duty, in 2001, I stopped playing all games, save for Texas Hold'em. To be honest, I didn't even know that hobby board games existed, until 2009 my wife, Amanda, and I stumbled upon a game store in a mall in Las Vegas, Nevada. I was awestruck by the games that I saw and was immediately smitten at the idea of playing all those games! Unfortunately, I wouldn't get that opportunity for another 3 years, but once I started in this hobby, there was no stopping.
From the beginning, I've been drawn to heavier, more intricate games. While I won't say that there is no game too heavy (I'm looking at you, The Campaign for North Africa!), I've yet to play one that I feel is too heavy to enjoy. That's not to say that I can't enjoy a lighter game, it's just that if given the choice, heavy board games are my bread and butter. I enjoy the competition of decision making that they provide as well as the deeper, more intricate story that they have to tell. Everything from heavy Euros, to 18xx games, to war games are my sweet spot. I am a game player first, game collector second.
I started a how-to-play video series called "Across the Table" which I hope to continue at some point. In the meantime, I brought up the idea for this podcast to my good buddy, Tony, earlier in 2014 and he was all for it. We have similar tastes in games, but not identical, which I made for some interesting conversations.
Currently, my wife, Amanda, co-hosts the show with me. We are not the normal married couple, in that we do not take it easy on each other, and we are not afraid to argue our points!
I currently live in Denver, Colorado, where I work in the avionics field. I'm fortunate to live with my best friend and wife (and gaming partner), Amanda, and our rescued greyhound, Asher. I'm an avid cook and a big-time foodie and I love music.
I have played board games my entire life. When I was very little, I was visiting my grandparents' house and did NOT want to go home for whatever reason. In order to get me to go home, my grandfather bribed me with going to Albertsons and buying a game. That became a tradition…and I soon owned every game that Albertsons carried.
I started playing "serious" games in 2012 and fell in love with the hobby. I'm so happy that I found this hobby, because not only has me closer to my best friend and husband, Edward, but it has also brought wonderful people into my life.
My favorite types of games are worker placement and economic games. I'm the girl that will begin the day chuckin' dice in Roll for the Galaxy and then head into a game of 1880 China without batting an eye.
I am VERY meticulous about logging all of the games I play through the awesome app BGStats, even down to scores. You can always check my profile out on BGG (AmandaU) and see what I've been playing lately…and to see if I've been winning! I also love to take photos of the games and post them on Instagram (AmandaU825), so give me a follow if you like board game pics and pictures of the best greyhound on the planet.
I work as a medical biller, and specialize in ophthalmology. I work for a great company and have wonderful co-workers that are like my second family that I get to hang out with for 10 hours a day.
One last thing. I have an illness called Borderline Personality Disorder. To find out more about this mental illness, and how I feel on pretty much a daily basis, go here. And please understand...if you also suffer from a mental illness, know you are not alone. We're all in this together.

I've played the D6 system a fair bit in the past (mostly Star Wars 2nd Edition), but I hadn't kept up on recent developments in D6 system gaming. I got a review copy of Heaven's Shadow from the author, John Berry, and did a bit of research on MiniSix, a streamlined (the core rules are under 40 pages) variant. But this isn't about MiniSix, it's about Heaven's Shadow, so let's jump into that.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW: Published by Bedroom Wall Press, Heaven's Shadow is currently free in PDF form, and $10 in print. It runs 84 pages and is powered by MiniSix, as noted above. The premise is that the PCs are Shadows: Assassins who serve God and are powered by their Faith to hunt down demonic beings called Nephilim, who disguise themselves as mortals. Pretty sure I've read the author saying it has more than a little influence from the Assassin's Creed series as well.
The book includes everything you need to play, rules and setting. MiniSix is pretty streamlined, with only four attributes (Might, Agility, Wits and Charm), and around thirty skills governed by those four attributes (not evenly divided), like Martial Arts, Pickpocket, Demonology and Con. You get 12 dice to divide among attributes, with 7 dice to divide among your skills, and you can divide dice into 3 pips (giving +1 or +2 to an attribute or skill; +3 would make it another die larger). Every Shadow also has the Faith attribute (which uses dice from the attributes pool), as well as an Agency attribute that reflects their standing in their organization. Conviction is a pool of points reminiscent of Force Points from the Star Wars RPG, allowing the Shadows to push themselves when needed, shrug off damage, or receive "Divine Inspiration" when they aren't clear about what to do next. Every Shadow also has to take two Complications, which provide Conviction points when encountered – and overcome – in play. Some Complications include Bounty (as in, there's one on your head), Touched (by the profane, possibly even having demon's blood in your veins) or Burned (your previous agency cut you off, full stop). Shadows also have four derived stats (Block, Dodge, Parry and Soak) for combat situations.
The basic rules are simple: Roll the dice pool for the appropriate action and beat a target number. If you double the target number, it's a Double Success and you succeed spectacularly. In some situations, usually at GM fiat, you get a Stunt Die, which is largely like the Wild Die from previous D6 games, which can explode for extra success or "implode", taking away dice from the total. Heaven's Shadow also has a contested system for things like tailing a target, which is a series of rolls back and forth until one side holds the advantage for multiple rolls (or scores a Double Success). Simple, but effective.
The combat rules are a lot like the basic rules, with Agility being used for initiative. If you've played RPGs, you'll recognize a lot of the stuff here, but my favorite part is
If you attack and score less than half of what you need, you give the opponent
the immediate opportunity for a counterattack (including Disarming them,
Disabling them or performing a Takedown). Damage is compared to the opponent's
Soak value, and the remainder compared to the Wound table to determine how
wounded the defender is. Successive wounds less than the existing wounds bump
up the wound level. This makes "Papercuts of Death" possible, which might annoy
some folks. Savage Worlds has potential for the same thing, so I'm clearly not
bothered by that.
The chapter on Assassination is the crown jewel of the book. It goes into detail about using stealth for bonuses on taking out the target, as well as using various environmental effects to kill the target without making it look like an assassination (like throwing them from balconies, electrocuting them, poisoning them, drowning them, etc), as well as Planning the Hit, which tries to help justify the idea of a team of assassins, with each member of the group performing a task and every successful completion adding a die to the Plan Pool, which the triggerman can spend when it comes time to take out the target and/or escape.
They say Faith can move mountains, and Shadows can use Faith to do amazing things thanks to the "Supreme Director" (God). They are organized by difficulties: Everyone has Wordless Sight, which allows them to see Nephilim for who they are, and with a little extra effort, reveal that to others. Passing Unseen allows a Shadow to completely vanish into a crowd. Walking on Water functions exactly as it sounds. Covering Darkness plunges a building into complete and absolute darkness. Stone of David allows the assassin to throw a single, unerring stone that strikes almost as a bullet. Resurrection can raise the dead. There are many more Miracles, these are just a sampling.
Several agencies are included, all coming from the same basic source (The Order of Shadows), and all agreeing on the same overall mission (stop the Nephilim), just not agreeing on particulars (tenets of Faith, methods of operation, base of operations, and so on). Sometimes the Agencies do work together for short-term missions, and some (like ICON, which is a former government agency still operating out of
,) function as unofficial
branches of governing bodies in their area. Langley,
The Nephilim are demonic souls in human bodies, and each are devoted to a particular sin. Each Nephilim has lived for thousands of years, and has certain abilities ties to their respective sins. Guidelines are included making your own Nephilim, as well as ten sample Nephilim, one for each of the listed sins. They range from destructive and ravenous Big Game Hunters to greedy Corporate Raiders to vile and disgusting Flesh Merchants.
The final chapter guides you, as the GM, through constructing missions for the PCs. Is the Nephilim the Power in the situation, or the Man Behind The Power? The President of the
United States might be acting fishy
and making destructive decisions, but it could be a Nephilim disguised as an
advisor and not the President. There's also discussion included on the
consequences of the assassination. Having to kill a US Senator is likely to have more
fallout (at least legally) than killing a Nephilim pornographer will. A few
smple NPC statblocks are provided, as well as a series of plot hooks, like a
small town falling under the sway of a pair of Nephilim pushing their
respective sins on the place, a Nephilim drug dealer using his own blood to
lace the drugs and a sadistic Nephilim pornographer operating in an off-shore
sea fort.
WHAT WORKS: A fantastic premise, and the streamlined MiniSix seems to fit it like a glove. The
rules put that extra risk into the combat, and the miracles from the "Supreme
Director" are some pretty impressive stuff, as is the Assassination chapter.
The PDF is free and the print is only $10.
WHAT DOESN'T WORK: Perhaps too lean and could have used more examples. A random mission generator would have been a nice touch.
CONCLUSION: Well, the PDF is free, so if this sounds remotely interesting, you have no reason not to check it out on your own. The game allows for the cool factor of being ruthless assassins, while setting up a situation that places the assassins as the undeniable good guys, since they are taking on demons. On one hand, I appreciate just how lean it is…on the other hand, it probably could have used some beefing up in some places. There is actually no art at all inside the book, meaning that it is packed with actual game information. Despite the part in the book about the team working together on a mission, it seems like the perfect RPG to run for a solo campaign, and the system is a time-tested one that Heaven's Shadow doesn't push past its comfort zone (like high level Jedi or DC Superheroes tended to do). Fun concept, executed well, in a system that has stood the test of time, with a non existent barrier for entry. Definitely worth checking out.
DISCLAIMER: As noted above, I did receive an electronic review copy of Heaven's Shadow from the author, and I have provided an affiliate link to the PDF and print versions of the book at DriveThruRPG. Making a purchase via an affiliate link could provide me with compensation in the form of store credit.
NOTE: I believe the free PDF was a promotional period thing, and the price has now been adjusted up to (a still very reasonable) $5 after the posting of this review.

Taylor Lautner Is Confident Enough in His Good Looks to Sing Bad Karaoke
Don't stop believing!
Professional thirst-trap Taylor Lautner was hanging out at Nashville's Tootsie's Orchid Lounge when, according to TMZ, the house band asked him to come onstage and sing with them. Oh, did he ever. They selected Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'," the '80s rock anthem and Glee standard, which, we've got to say, is a very ambitious karaoke song! But, buoyed by shots of Patrón and abdominal muscles, Taylor Lautner went for it anyway. Well, we can't all be good at everything.

Would you like to experience the benefits of this powerful food, but having a little trouble taking it daily because of its unfamiliar taste? Read our post to discover:
- How this vibrant green food can really transform the way you feel
- Why it's so important to take your spirulina pure
- Our top ways to easily take spirulina daily (and actually love it!)
This superfood is incredible for you, but because spirulina is a type of microalgae its taste might be quite unusual at first (you do get used to it quickly though).
It is absolutely worth taking as you'll quickly (some say straight after) feel amazing, revitalized and full of natural energy – without any side effects. The benefits of taking spirulina in the long run are even more incredible! Read on to discover what they are!
According to thousands of our regular Bursters from over 105 countries around the globe, our spirulina tastes (and smells!) so much better than the commercial varieties they had tried before.
We've spent years sampling various spirulina from farms around the world until we found the most perfect small organic farm – that put so much love and care into growing their spirulina. We were amazed by how its effects and taste were different!
If you haven't tried Organic Burst Spirulina yet – it tastes more like dense green veggies (imagine a powdered mix of baby kale, broccoli and spinach!). It has none of that nasty fishy smell (that has made many a health lover feel a little bit nauseous).
How come?
Thanks to the unique way our spirulina is grown:
- in pure mineral water (as opposed to sea water or surface water)
- using only organic plant-based organic feed made on our farm (and no usual chemicals used in spirulina production)
- The location also matters – our small organic farm is located in the supergreen South Taiwan, surrounded by rainforests, which are homes to the indigenous tribes (and no industries or pollution)
- It's also tested and confirmed 100% free of the toxins - that may be lurking in many commercial spirulina (no radiation, BMAA, no heavy metal contamination, no algal toxins and no bacterial contamination)
We understand you may still struggle with the taste though at first. Luckily, there are several ways to transform your spirulina intake into a fun & delicious experience!
>> READ ON to discover our top 10 easy ways to enjoy spirulina
The unusual spirulina taste doesn't mean you should give up the idea of benefitting your body by taking it daily in its purest form (100% spirulina powder or tablets) - and instead going for superfood smoothie mixes and protein powders that contain spirulina in them.
Why not?
...Because when taking spirulina as a part of a blend you might not be getting the benefits and nutrients you're after (whilst paying a high price). But you might be getting a cocktail of sweeteners and cheaper ingredients (used to bulk out and save money on the pure and expensive superfoods, such as spirulina).
The truth is… because spirulina is one of the most expensive superfoods there are - many such mixes/blends usually have very little spirulina in them (bulked out by added cheaper ingredients).
And here's some of our insider knowledge - because very few health food companies in the world engage in direct trade (most buy from mass resellers without actually knowing their farms) - the spirulina is likely to come from a large commercial farm, looking to maximize its yield and minimize its costs (meaning you'd be ingesting chemical fertilisers and other questionable inputs).
So, by taking your spirulina pure – you're going to be:
- Feeling much better as you're getting more benefits of spirulina
- Avoiding any potential nasties
- Saving money
- Having fun creating amazing recipes
Spirulina is a very powerful little alga with so many health benefits (as confirmed by the scientific studied done around the world).
It's recommended by the World Health Organization and called the "best food of the future".
It even has a whole Intergovernmental Organization dedicated to it - Intergovernmental Institution for the Use of Micro-algae Spirulina Against Malnutrition (IIMSAM) - which advocates the use of spirulina for saving malnourished children in the least fortunate countries of our planet.
Here are just some of the benefits of having your daily spirulina:
- Weight loss, reduction of BMI – according to 2016 study consisting of 40 patients with hypertension (who took 2 grams of spirulina for 3 months) - spirulina significantly reduced BMI (Body Mass Index), blood pressure and promoted weight loss.
- Quickly curbs cravings (and eliminates them in the long run) – have 1 teaspoon of spirulina between meals or when the craving is likely to hit you. So many of our Bursters report their cravings reduce and go away altogether after regularly taking our spirulina.
- Get more done by staying sharp, focused and energized! If you're feeling zapped, exhausted and spaced out – spirulina is your superfood. It contains natural iron (that unlike other forms of iron does not cause constipation). And it supports your brain function and energy metabolism.
- Find your zen and support your nervous system – if you're feeling wired or having a tough time at work or school, our spirulina can help you find your zen. And hold on to it! It's thiamine supports your nervous system and a balanced psychological state.
- Highly absorbable plant source of protein - our spirulina contains a whopping 70% complete protein - unlike many plants it actually contains ALL essential amino acids (that your body cannot produce and needs to obtain from food). Spirulina also has a higher Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) – its protein is 4x more absorbable than protein that comes from beef.
Now let's get into our favourite ways of having it!
1. Lemony Spirulina Smoothie – curb cravings, feel light & energised with this fresh and creamy Spirulina smoothie.
2. 4-Ingredient Spirulina Lemonade – this is a similar recipe to the one above but upgraded with sparkling water and a little bit of healthy sweetness.
3. Spirulina Greenberry Smoothie Bowl – flood your body with amazing nutrients while enjoying this delicious and balanced green smoothie bowl.
4. Spirulina Almond Latte – our favorite pre yoga drink: mix 1/2 teaspoon in a glass of almond milk and add a sweetener of your choice (we like stevia or rice malt syrup). It will satiate you and revitalize without feeling heavy.
5. Spirulina Cinnamon Cashew Cream – this beautiful supergreen cream is great swirled over smoothie bowls, dolloped on top of fruit or as a luxurious accompaniment to desserts.
6. Spirulina Superbites – Be on the go with these energizing snacks. You won't have to worry about snacking on something else because they will fill you up, keeping you satiated until your next meal.
7. Spirulina Creme Chocolate Truffles – enjoy these heavenly superfood truffles after a long stressful day - they're amazing to help you find your zen, de-stress and recharge.
8. Spirulina Broccoli Tots - this is a scrumptious superfood snack or side dish that's amazing to feel satisfied and energised!
9. Spirulina Pesto – an unexpected way to add in your green! Supercharge your pesto and get more protein, iron and B vitamins with your spirulina.
10. Broccoli Spirulina Frittata - Did you know that you can add spirulina to your omelette? Make this mega energising omelette recipe with broccoli, garlic, onions and our spirulina goodness.

Fox had a habit of shuffling its Saturday morning lineup every few weeks, rotating series in and out of the lineup in an effort to keep things fresh. Kids' WB! did the same thing, but it got annoying because neither could really keep a consistent lineup together.
Los Luchadores was one of those mid-season replacements that Fox would bring out, usually with a minimal amount of hype and advertising. Here's the opening:
What Los Luchadores aspired to be was a Latino version of Batman, what with its over-the-top villains. What it ended up being was, of course, cancelled. Fox's problem was scheduling Luchadores too early (8 am ET) in the lineup. I get that they wanted to find something that would be a lead-in for their more popular shows, and Luchadores certainly filled the bill. Unfortunately, the Nielsen ratings didn't seem to agree.
Rating: C.

Cameron Diaz wants to tell you how to eat
Cameron Diaz has definite opinions about what people should be eating. Is that a bad thing? Nope -- look at how healthy she is! Now she wants to share those tips with teens.
Finally: An actress with a healthy relationship with food. Stunning — and ripped — actress Cameron Diaz is writing a nutrition book for teen girls learn about the importance of eating right, according to E! News.
"This book is not about weight, it's about making the right choices," a source told E! of Diaz's new project. "She wants to stop their fixation on being thin, and for teenage girls to understand that being healthy is more important. She wants to use her celebrity to make a difference. She knows she is a role model to girls and she really wants to use that position to do good."
The What to Expect When You're Expecting star was inspired to get into nutrition and health by her pal and GOOP maven, Gwyneth Paltrow.
"Cameron has become very close to Gwyneth and it's been very interesting for her to see what Gwyneth is doing with GOOP," the insider added. "She's been inspired by Gwyneth and the way she uses her game to influence and help people. Now Cameron wants to do the same."
She's not stopping with the book, though: Diaz will make appearances to talk about nutrition and plans to launch a website on the subject.
"Cameron is going to be visiting high schools around the country to talk to teenagers about their food choices and what is important to them," the publishing insider said.
Cameron Diaz and Matthew Morrison talk fake bellies and babies >>
"Through this project, she wants schools to offer better meal option for kids," the source added. "She wants to have an impact on a huge scale. In some way, she feels like this is her calling. This is her passion."
We're with that: Have you seen Diaz's body? She definitely eats and works out regularly. Plus, she seems down to earth and will relate well to teens. Hey, we'll even take her advice — as long as she shares her arm workout. Those biceps are insane!

New Rochelle's Trinity Elementary School Recipient of Green Writing Contest Grant
February 28, 2014 - 20:05
New Rochelle's Trinity Elementary School has been exemplary in regards to Recycling. Under the leadership of Principal Anthony DiCarlo, and Assistant Principal Inas MorsiHogans, the students created a continuous culture of recycling in their lunchroom.
Trinity is the only school that has never faltered in their efforts to source separate all materials in the lunchroom, and I credit Ms MorsiHogans and the very supportive lunchroom staff with this. Way to go.
In this spirit, the school has been chosen to be the recipient of this years "Green Writing Contest" given in Honor of Nina Chin.

The outer Rollover Car Wash System
Express car wash in north Hollywood
The outer Rollover Carwash System is an extremely sufficient type of car wash in situations where space is fixed. These are generally often seen as an standalone unit alongside gasoline stations as well as the two businesses compliment the other very well.
Sometimes it is possible for any driver for a lower price on the carwash whenever they buy a certain quantity of gallons of fuel thereby promoting the fuel side and also the carwash side of the location simultaneously. In ideal situations it is possible for your driver to get a car wash straight from the gas pump where these are filling their tank and also the ticket is reproduced on their own gas receipt.
In this fashion of car wash a car drives in a bay similar in space to some self wash bay and stops once within the proper position. The trucker is alerted once the car is in the correct position by the loud horn, a flashing light or both. Once the vehicle is in park the automobile wash will being to use and explain to you various washing, rinsing and drying cycles.
In this case the automobile is cleaned by mechanically moving a rack that travels forwards and backwards over the top, and along the sides of, the stationary vehicle. These washing cycles can differ from the simple wash with 3 or 4 passes to some deluxe package with pre-wash, soap, rinse, undercarriage, wheel cleaner, polish and/or wax, and drying cycles. The higher the volume of cycles the better the profit of the wash.
This kind of car wash can be very popular due to the hands-off nature in the process. The customer drives in, carwash undergoes the cycles and driver leaves the auto wash. Simple, feasible for people to use plus your customers tend not to need to get out of their car.
This kind of carwash can be a very profitable system as everything involved has a preset experience the consumables (water, power, soap, wax, foam, etc.) Which has a self wash system the business enterprise owner just isn't confident that the customer make use of a great deal of soap, the foaming brush, or simply spray the automobile with rinse water for your allotted time. Within the worse case scenario it will be possible that the customer will occupy a self service bay for a long period of your energy performing tasks from where the business owner can't make profit (cleaning trash from your car, hand cleansing the car minus the timer going, talking on a mobile phone etc).
Express car wash in north Hollywood
Using a Exterior Rollover Car Wash System things are controlled at the time within the bay on the quantity of soapy water used. It's actually a nice system joined with a gas station or even in addition for several hand wash bays also.

Kickstarter Campaign to Publish "The Shochu Handbook"
January 23, 2014 by Christopher · 1 Comment
Hello foodie friends!
I hope you're having a fantastic day. For the past three years I've been pouring my energy into my first publication, "The Shochu Handbook." Remember when I talked about the project while touring distilleries in Kyushu, and then again when I talked about the process of becoming certified as a Shochu Sommelier?
Yup, it was all part of the plan to get to this point.
Today I'm unveiling the fruit of all that labor, and I hope that you'll take a moment to check it out:
It'd mean the world to me if you'd spread the word by simply clicking the Facebook and Twitter buttons under the video. Just two clicks will make a HUGE difference!
Many thanks,
Christopher Pellegrini

?Topic: Sundry Counsels For The Wise
Text: Proverbs 18:13-24
Key Verse: "The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge" (Proverbs 18:15).
The unbridled tongue has always led to the waterloo of many. And who is a wise man? One who is able to tame his tongue; he thinks and reflects before talking. Sadly, the unregenerate heart does the very opposite. Our text today opens with a counsel on how to wisely use the tongue. It also lays emphasis on other vital lessons of life. We must give much thoughts to every question before answering it. Similarly, before passing comments on any issue, we must first get the facts. Those who fail to heed this timeless counsel have always reaped the reward of thoughtless speeches.
The importance of courage and good conduct which produce clear conscience and a healthy heart is stressed in this study. A believer with good courage and a good heart can never be easily overwhelmed by any calamity. A good conscience void of offence towards God and man will produce a blessed rest with God. Wise people who seek more knowledge, readily make a judicious use of all means of grace; they not only read the word of God and meditate upon it, they single-mindedly practise its precepts.
A truly gifted individual does not lobby for any position in life. He is identified and placed in the right position by God who indeed promotes. Identify your own gift therefore and use it for God. Try as much as possible to prevent offences among the brethren. If there is any dispute to settle, we should make the Bible our standard. If we make positive confession about ourselves, drawing strength from God, we will have positive results ultimately.
Thought for the day: Soft, measured words draw away wrath and calamities.
