Building Motorhead Through The Ages
People often ask how the Victor Vran expansion, Motörhead Through The Ages, came to be. How the hell do you get a rock band in an ARPG? To answer this, Creative Producer, Achim Heidelauf fills us in on what went down, and surprisingly it all started in Germany, 24 years ago...
When it comes to Lemmy, the first memory I have is me sitting in front of a TINY TV with my best friend back then, Michael. He got a crappy copy of the movie Eat the Rich on VHS. This is when I heard Motörhead the first time and when I saw Lemmy the first time. And man, he was so fucking cool and real... and a bit scary! I was so impressed. And the MUSIC man. I watched the end credits with DOC ROCK so often that the fucking tape broke eventually!
My earliest "meeting him" memory was when I was brought into his...read on

Victor Vran's Motörhead Tracklist revealed
Since announcing Motörhead Through the Ages, one of the biggest questions we are asked is "What Motörhead tracks are you using?"
Today we can answer that question and reveal not only which tracks, but why!
To answer the question, we first need to go back to 2014 when the interest of the band in the project was what started it all. We originally intended to license a couple of tracks and that was it. But the more we talked, the more the question was raised "Why not do more than just the music? Let's do a Motörhead GAME!" It was a close collaboration from the first minute.
The band was deeply involved in the process of creating the story and which quotes and anecdotes to include. Naturally, they also created the costumes that Victor Vran can wear!
Lemmy was involved the most, due to his...read on

If you are new to my blog you might note that I started it back in May of this year and never posted since. Every day I asked myself why? Why was I who wanted to create this blog not posting? There were a number of reasons. Firstly, I wasn't sure what I wanted my blog to be about. Secondly, I am a perfectionist, so I have spent the last few months torturing myself on writing the perfect first blog. Telling myself it is important to make a first good impression. After all I want you to come back. Lastly, fear, fear of putting myself out there, having my thoughts, opinions, ideas, beliefs, all torn apart, ridiculed, laughed at possibly leaving me feeling worthless.
Well finally I have come to a place where putting myself out there is worth the risk. You will read in my next blog that I have been sick for the last couple of months and the strange thing is that being ill seems to have caused a change in my thinking and has now become the catalyst for me doing and trying a few new things.
With the launch of Instagram Stories I began to think maybe I could post a video or two on mental health and positive thinking, sure if it was awful it would be gone in 24hours (yes positive thinking at its best). So last week I posted my first one (you can find it and follow me here https://www.instagram.com/fallenbluehalo/)
Do you know what? It wasn't that bad (the experience), I thought I can do this and more importantly I want to do this. I have something to say, something to share and if one person was interested, if it made a difference to one person is that not worth it? Besides I am not only doing this blog for others but for myself to figure out what I want to do next in my life. I also reminded myself as a trainer that I always believed even if only one student learned something then it was all worth it, the struggle, the hard work, the self doubt. This too would be worth it. I was now all fired up.
So now what? I think when you decide to do something it can be a very useful tool to look at others who are doing it, what way are they doing it, what do you like or dislike about their methods? How can you be different? To that end I read blogs, follow others on Twitter who are interested particularly in mental health and try to learn from them. It was in doing this that I discovered what I wanted to do, more importantly what the purpose of the blog and the video posts would be. It also encouraged me, believing if they can do it, if they can put themselves out there, embrace the good and bad of being in the public eye then so could I. In order to share my experiences and what I have learned from them, I would have to feel the fear and do it anyway.
I also realised through reflecting this week that I want to use my psychoanalytic training in a more creative way while enlightening others to its practice. I want to share how my training taught me the power and importance of language. As a student and client of psychoanalysis I discovered how it can empower me. Psychoanalysis highlighted the significance of choice, the fact that I/we always have a choice, sometimes those choices may have a positive or negative impact on our life. When we recognise that our choice is being in particular influenced by external sources, we become more empowered to make better choices for our life and well being. I have come to believe that the answers we search for are often found inside ourselves not externally as we are often led to believe. Psychoanalysis empowers you to find those answers, to become aware of your choices and the consequences of them, it doesn't claim to have the answer to or promise you happiness ever after, it teaches you that you and you alone are responsible for your life and the happiness and all other emotions, thoughts within it. However, I have also come to believe that mental health is not enough to achieve well being alone, a holistic approach must be adopted to include physical and emotional (or spiritual depending on your belief system) well being too.
I don't claim to know or have all the answers, I just simply want to pass on what psychoanalysis and maybe more importantly what insights my life has taught me so far, especially in making positive changes. Reflection, mindfulness, self awareness are great tools to create change. I want to share with you how I use them and what they achieved and continue to achieve for me.
It is a rough sketch I admit but as a very good friend advised me once, sometimes you just have to take that first step. In time it will evolve, develop and then become clear what your goal is. She told me you don't need to have all the answers right now but if you don't take that first step you will remain stuck and never know what your goal is meant to be. This is my first step or admittedly my second but I have begun my journey. I look forward to sharing it with you and to you also sharing your experience, insights, thoughts, opinions and ways of managing this wonderful experience we call life.
I want to take this opportunity as I post this first blog to thank all my friends who continue to believe in me, even when I might not believe in myself. This is dedicated to you. Thank you for your continued encouragement, love and support. I'm doing it, I'm really doing it.
Leave a comment, maybe something you have been afraid to do or try? Or what fear have you over come? Thanks for stopping by. Come back again.

Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
Computer restarts instead of shutting down after Windows Update.
I'm having a problem with my laptop. I run Windows 7 Professional 64bit on it. An hour and a half ago I shut down my computer and Windows installed an update, but I stuck around because I wanted my computer off and I know that the computer restarts itself after installing an update. The computer restarted itself and configured the update, but when I chose to shut down the computer it actually restarted itself. I've tried shutting it down several times, but every time it starts right back up. I've run a virus scan, the Power troubleshooter, disabled automatic restart upon System failure, and searched Google and Windows help files for similar-sounding problems, all to no effect. My attempts to fix the issue so far represent the extent of my comfort in dealing with computer issues by myself, so I found this forum and decided to ask for some help. Thanks in advance.

Are you shutting the computer down by pressing the power button or by using the start > shutdown method?
If it is by pressing the power button, have a check to see what the power button is set to do when pressed.
(Control panel > Hardware and Sound > Power options > Choose What the power buttons do)
If this isn't the case,
I've experienced this problem and fixed it by clearing the CMOS. (Removing the CMOS battery, leaving for 10 seconds, then placing it back in.)

My favorite flavor of Kool-Aid is Apple…not the green kind, but whatever product or innovation that Apple comes out with each year. Yes, I drink the Apple Kool-Aid. Over the weekend, a product (which I absolutely love) was launched and there was a lot of controversy over the decision of the company to abandon Google Maps and create their own Maps application. In the new system, all of the GPS info wasn't correct and I guess people couldn't remember how to get to work or the grocery store or something. The more I read about the issues I thought:
1. Why would people criticize innovation? What's wrong with wanting to different and no longer having to rely on someone else to do something when you are fully capable of doing it yourself?
2. Who gives a crap if they give you the wrong directions to McDonald's? Stop being lazy and find it!
3. Loyalty is overrated. With all of the money I've spent in the Apple store, I never got a thank you note from Steve Jobs and Tim Cook hasn't reached out either.
Other than being lazy, why are we so dependent on other people's resources and knowledge. We would drive off of a bridge or through a wall if the little lady inside of our GPS told us to instead of taking the time to T.H.I.N.K. (as my father-in-law used to say) and figure out where the heck we are and how we got there.
It takes little to no effort and even less thought to hear and then follow blindly. We take the words of our bosses and managers as the gospel without considering motive. We are loyal to a fault to people who do not have our professional interests at heart and are not "programmed" to care about them. We take advice from people who have never walked an inch in our shoes and have no idea how we feel or how we've been affected by professional hurdles. We are directed right smack into dead ends instead of being aware of our surroundings and making our own decisions. We wait for our devices to say "Recalculating" instead of putting the vehicle in reverse and speeding off in a different direction. We drink the proverbial Kool-Aid because it's quick, convenient and artificially sweetened instead of taking the time to consider how we will be affected in the long term, what opportunities we'll miss out on and how these decisions affect our ultimate goals.
We need more water, literally and figuratively. "High Quality H2O", for physical health, mental health and professional sanity. We can see right through it and for the most part can see what's in it. Straight, no chaser. We need it to wash away the impurities of complacency and thoughtlessness. To give us the clarity we need to innovate and become the professional change that we so desperately desire. At the very least, it can give us the strength we need to crash through the dead end wall and create our own path if we can't navigate around it.
Drink up!

Colour Trophy & Trendvision Finalists AW13 ← Back to the galleries
In 2013, we entered 3 looks into the Colour Trophy, Men's Image and Young Colourist categories at the L'Oréal Colour Trophy Awards and entered 1 look into Wella Trendvision. Our team took influence from the 'Modern Romance' and 'Living Design' trends for AW13 and used metallic inspired colours in the hair with icy silver and aluminium tones running through brunettes and blondes and warming up the season with some golds and coppers too. We achieved finalist postions in 3 out of 4 categories, so another reason to proud of our team.

Gwyneth Paltrow Hits London Film Festival
Gwyneth Paltrow covers up in head-to-toe black at the premiere of her new movie, Two Lovers, at the BFI 52nd London Film Festival held at the Odeon West End, Leicester Square on Monday.
The most interesting part of the 36-year-old actress's look was the furry Felder Felder jacket with leather sleeves. It kind of overshadowed her Salvatore Ferragamo number, a black draped and plissé evening dress, with an asymmetrical bodice and metal gancio detail with black silk satin ribbon (Spring Summer 2009 collection). Gwyn accessorized with Chopard jewels and sandals by Charlotte Olympia for Temperley.
Two Lovers is a Brooklyn-set romantic drama about a bachelor (Joaquin Phoenix) torn between the family friend his parents wish he would marry and his beautiful but volatile new neighbor (Paltrow). The film opens in theaters just in time for Valentine's day — on February 13!
WHAT DO YOU THINK of Gwyn's red carpet look — HIT or MISS?

Land Management Ceremonies Moiety (Marriage Laws) Totems Dance, Song, Stories, Art Lore versus Law Colonisation Terra Nullius • Australia was settled under the assumption of Terra Nullius. • The reasoning for this idea is because Aboriginal people did not cultivate land in accordance with land tenure and it was assumed Aboriginal people did not have a law system in place that was equal to that of British Common Law. Land Belonging to No-one • Terra nullius is a Latin term for 'land belonging to no-one'. • According to international law of Europe in the late 18th century, there were only three ways that Britain could take possession of another country. 18th Century European Law • If the country was uninhabited • Ceded/Succession – Treaty • Invasion or conquest Impact of Colonisation • • • • Introduction of Diseases.

This legislation resulted in a reduction in the available workforce and also reduced the number of residents; both of these led to a point where mission closure could be justified, releasing further land for settlers. • This resulted in Indigenous Australians being placed in the few remaining missions.

Attention entrepreneurs, small business owners, speakers, trainers, consultants and anyone else who wants to quickly increase their sales through the awesome power of Social networking
Join Some of the World's Most Successful Social
Marketing Experts As They Reveal How to Use the
Power of Twitter to Explode Your Business
Twitter - New Kid on the Social Networking Block What is
Twitter? A popular service with social networking, instant messaging and micro-blogging features, Twitter is still misunderstood by many people. A personal blog can keep people informed on what is going on in your life, but not everyone wants to spend an hour crafting a beautiful post about the vibrant colors seen on a butterfly spotted in the front time.
It's a great place for keeping people informed on what you are up to without the need to spend a lot of time crafting an entire post on the subject. That's where Twitter comes into the picture.You just say what's up and leave it at that. While Twitter may have started as a micro-blogging service, it is grown into much more than simply a tool to type in quick status updates. Often it is described as a cross between blogging and instant messaging.
Twitter is social messaging With the ability to follow people and have followers, and the ability to have interact with Twitter on your cell phone, Twitter has become the perfect social messaging tool. Whether you are out on the town and want to coordinate with a group of people as to what hot spot to hit next, or keeping people informed of developments at a company-sponsored event, Twitter is a great tool for quickly communicating a message to a group of people.
In a digital world that is relying on the Internet more and more for news, that streaming ticker is Twitter. Faster and more immediate than a blog, Twitter has been embraced by the "new media" of the blogosphere and has slowly won acceptance among traditional media outlets. Twitter has become a favorite target for social media marketing. Getting Started Twitter Announcements and Features!. All you need to use Twitter is an internet connection or a mobile phone.
To get an idea of what other people are saying or doing on Twitter, check out. Twitter search to see what Twitter's all about. Following someone simply means receiving their Twitter updates. When you follow someone, every time they post a new message, it will appear in your Twitter home page. When you log in, you can see what the latest updates are. Twitter offers other ways to follow people too: you can get updates from certain people on your phone !. If you've registered your phone with Twitter, you can set up text preferences for a person as well. Twitter recently added follow and update limits for stability and abuse control.
As you noticed, Twitter users can make short posts about what is going on right that minute in their lives. People tend to post what they're working on, comment about a TV show they're watching, what they are cooking for dinner, complain about being stuck in traffic, and all sorts of other innane topics.
Many use Twitter to market products or services. Others use Twitter to keep tract of current events or cultural activities. Still others use Twitter for mere socialization. They just enjoy talking with friends, family or like-minded strangers about what they are doing at the moment. Twitter is easy and fun and constantly evolving. Start your account today.

Challenges allow healthcare organizations to crowdsource new concepts and technologies to address the problems that are most important to them and bring attention to these issues. We have partnered with private, non-profit, and government organizations to run challenges and pilot programs to commercialize new technologies and provide innovation consulting. Challenges questions are posed to a broad community of developers, designers, entrepreneurs, and others interested in the health sector. Over the course of a challenge (typically 3-6 months), teams self assemble and develop novel technological solutions to health care problems. Teams may create software and hardware solutions such as web and mobile applications, visualizations, sensor systems, and data models. Submissions are evaluated by a panel of expert judges and awarded non-dilutive funding, recognition, support, and partnership opportunities with the sponsoring organization.

Motorola Successfully Tests LTE In 700 Mhz Spectrum: Motorola has successfully tested out a prototype LTE device in Illinois, transferring mobile video and other high bandwidth data over the 700 MHz spectrum. It definitely looks like they're on track to roll out LTE on schedule in 2009. The lower frequency bands between 470 and 862 Mhz, which will be freed by the digital TV transition coming in February 2009, provide better coverage and in-building penetration and LTE is ultra-fast 4G broadband, low latency, and much lower cost-per-bit transferred than 3G data transmission technologies.
iPhone Gets Mobile Banking: AT&T and Firethorn, a Qualcomm company, have released a mobile banking application for the iPhone allowing users to manage virtually all aspects of their finances including transferring funds, viewing and paying bills, and even tracking reward points. It's now available as a free download from the iTunes app store.

It's never too early to start teaching your kids how to game, but when they outgrow Chutes & Ladders and Candyland, you need a good family board game to ensure everyone can play. Simple rules and quick play times are hallmarks of this genre of games. Most gameplay relies on a combination of skill and luck, so that younger players aren't at a disadvantage against more experienced players. A good collection of family board games keeps everyone playing nicely until the younger gamers are ready to graduate up to the wider world of tabletop games.

First Shot - Blitz Lamp Repros
Jake Wright
The Blitz Lamp is far-and-away the most popular piece in the Stockpile Store. In a weird twist of fate, it's become a victim of its own success. I use a WWII practice bomb for the body of the lamp, but 70-year-old munitions aren't exactly falling from the sky (anymore). These aren't particularly rare, but it's getting harder to find a bunch of them in one place. My current suppliers are running low, and I've been on the hunt for a new stash.
So what do you do when you're almost out of bombs? You make more. (Note to NSA search engines - made you look!)
Over the last several months, I've been working with Hebert Foundry and Machine in NH on a top secret project: to make more bombs. Like the originals, these are sand-cast, for that awesome textured finish. And like the originals, these are made in the USA.
But why settle for a copy, when I had a chance to improve on the original design? The repros are cast from a zinc-aluminum alloy - brighter, shinier, eco-friendly and 100% rust-free. Their bases are flatter for added stability, and they're cast hollow to save resources. Finally, these new Blitzes will retail for less than half the price of the originals.
I'm teaming up with Uncommon Goods to offer these repros exclusively through their catalog and website, although I'll be able to link to their listing through the Stockpile Store. Until then, you can use my contact form for more info, or to reserve your part of the first production run.

451 Marketing to Launch Hotel Chocolat's New Concept in the US Market
Agency to Lead US Public Relations Campaign for Luxury European Brand 451 Marketing, a national communications agency specializing in public relations, social media and search marketing, today announced that they have been selected by Hotel Chocolat to launch its exciting new cocoa cuisine concept and café at their US flagship store on Newbury Street in Boston. 451 Marketing will introduce the unique luxury European brand to the US market, promoting the concept as well as the company's story of innovation, authenticity and ethical cocoa growing practices.
"Hotel Chocolat is the definition of luxury, a brand that elevates a simple pleasure into an experience of indulgence," said AJ Gerritson, Founding Partner of 451 Marketing. "We are extremely pleased to have the opportunity to team up with a brand that is as dedicated to perfecting their craft and taking their product to the next level as we are."
Hotel Chocolat is an award-winning British chocolatier that connects luxury chocolate making and retailing with cocoa growing — it is one of the world's few chocolate makers to actually grow cocoa.

Today, there are more than 70 locations in Europe and plans to expand the premium brand in the US market.
Hotel Chocolat's US Flagship store on Newbury Street boasts an impressive interior design with pure chocolate luxury in mind, contemporary architectural lines and a Private Tasting Room for an even more intimate chocolate experience. The grand-reopening will focus on a new café concept within the store.

Read more >> Leads Participate In Our Outreach On the heels of our recent trip to Germany, the business development team is anxious to complete our follow up activities and to continue planning for our next outreach trips. We have come across articles online that suggest nearly 50 percent of sales people do not follow up with prospects. Our objective is to build "best-in-class" capabilities, which includes ongoing interactions with prospect companies. We have so many great stories to share about the momentum that is building in Northeast Indiana and we will be sharing them during these business development trips. We are looking forward to trips this summer to Chicago, London, and Washington, DC. This will provide opportunities to build teams of Regional Partnership staff, and regional stakeholders to expand our reach. If you are interested in participating in our outreach, or have suggestions on individuals and organizations we should call on, contact Alan Tio. Product Vision 2020 Update RDA Approves Funding For Skyline Tower Project The Board of the Northeast Indiana Regional Development Authority (RDA) met in April to consider a request for Regional Cities Initiative funding for the Skyline Tower Project, a 170,000 square foot urban, mixed-use project adjacent to the Ash Brokerage Project in downtown Fort Wayne. The Board voted to support the funding request of $2.8 million. The Board's recommendation now goes to the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) for review and final approval.

In April, the Regional Opportunities Council (ROC), the investor board of the Regional Partnership, voted to provide $30,000 to fund this Vision 2020 priority. The money will be used to leverage other grant opportunities with an overall goal of continuously improving the region's permitting processes. In addition, the Permitting Excellence Coalition (PEC) and the permitting taskforce are working on expanding the taskforce and increasing engagement. To learn more about streamlined permitting or the PEC, contact Amy Hesting.

In 2015, the Regional Partnership worked to develop the strategic plan to improve Northeast Indiana's portion of U.S. 30 and bring it up to freeway standards. This work accelerated to form the corridor-wide U.S. 30 Coalition, made up of seven counties including Allen, Whitley, Kosciusko, Starke, LaPorte, and Marshall counties. The coalition was incorporated this year, and APPIAN, Inc. was hired to guide the coalition's efforts. The board has also expanded, and new directors are being added to make sure there's a balance of public, and private interests. Each county is now tasked to work with their elected officials, and business leaders to draft county-specific plans for their portions of the corridor. The next meeting is scheduled for July. To learn more about interstate access, contact Amy Hesting.

Two years ago, Brian Cashman made a declaration about free agents. Cashman, the Yankees' general manager, had seemingly embraced the importance of developing players from in the organization and explained his reluctance to spend lavishly on the open market.
"The more players you can develop, the more you can keep from being desperate on the free-agent market," Cashman said in November 2006. "You almost never get fair value on a free agent, so you try to put yourself in a position where you don't have to go shopping."
The Yankees are about to go shopping again — and after missing the playoffs for the first time since 1993, they are desperate. Their pockets will be loaded with cash and they will grab at the shelves with both hands. Some combination of C. C. Sabathia, A. J. Burnett, Derek Lowe, Ben Sheets, Mark Teixeira and perhaps even Manny Ramírez will be enriched.
The Yankees are moving to the new Yankee Stadium, which will produce more revenue, and they are shedding more than $75 million from their 2008 payroll. Starting Friday, when teams can begin negotiating with other teams' free agents, the Yankees will be aggressive bidders, using the force of their war chest, which has always been their biggest advantage.
They also have only two starters: Chien-Ming Wang and Joba Chamberlain, whose innings will be limited. Andy Pettitte may return on a one-year deal, but Mike Mussina may retire. After the failure of the young starters Phil Hughes and Ian Kennedy last season, there are at least two rotation spots available, and room in the budget to fill them.Continue reading the main story
The Yankees may seem to be reverting to their old selves. But that is not how Cashman sees it.
"We have not changed our approach that I put in place here," Cashman said this week. "I've always said the Yankees would still be big-game hunters, both in the trade and free-agent markets."
The Yankees are under no obligation to spend all of the money coming off their payroll, Cashman said. And although they will chase free agents, they have retained almost all of the prospects they have worked to cultivate.
That was why the Yankees resisted trading for Johan Santana last December and for Sabathia in June. They believed they could someday add an ace without trading Hughes, who is still only 22. That time is now, and Sabathia is that pitcher.
The Yankees have already begun the courtship of Sabathia, who led the Cleveland Indians to the postseason in 2007 and carried the Milwaukee Brewers there this year. Derek Jeter has called him, and Manager Joe Girardi plans to.
To put Sabathia in pinstripes, it will probably take a contract that eclipses the six-year, $137.5 million deal the Mets gave Santana last season. The Yankees seem prepared to do that in an effort to lure Sabathia, who lives in California and prefers the National League.
As a former Cy Young Award winner who has never had an arm injury, Sabathia seems to be the surest thing to hit the market in years. Others carry more risk. Burnett has proven he can dominate in the American League, but he has a history of injuries. Lowe is a durable ground-ball pitcher, but he turns 35 in June and has not pitched in the A.L. since 2004.
Free-agent starters who have pitched exclusively in the N.L. — Ryan Dempster, Braden Looper, Brad Penny, Oliver Pérez and Randy Wolf — have less appeal to the Yankees.
Sheets, a high-end talent despite a lengthy history of injuries, could be the exception. His agent is Casey Close, who also represents Jeter and has a strong working relationship with the Yankees.
Cashman said he still believed what he said two years ago about free agents. "If you have to go to the market, you're going to have to pay more than what the player is really worth," he said.
Left unsaid was that the Yankees have so much money — and such a desire to win — that they can afford to overpay. The problem with some past free agents was not so much underperformance as it was injuries. Prospects were rushed to the majors because veterans were hurt.
When Cashman warned against splurging in 2006, he was mindful of his experience in 2004. That was the year the Yankees reacted to a bitter playoff loss to the Boston Red Sox by signing Carl Pavano and Jaret Wright, and then trading for and signing Randy Johnson.
Pavano and Wright were chronically injured, and Johnson was not as dominant as he had been in the N.L. Meanwhile, the Yankees were underwhelmed by the pitchers on the market at the time, a group that included Ted Lilly, Gil Meche, Jason Schmidt and Wolf.
The Yankees did make an international signing that winter, Kei Igawa, who has been a bust. In hindsight, they would have done better to sign Lilly or Meche. But simply signing free-agent starters is no guarantee of success.
Of the 27 World Series starters for the last seven champions, only two — Chris Carpenter and Jeff Suppan of the 2006 St. Louis Cardinals — came to their team through major league free agency. Fourteen were acquired through trades, eight through the draft, two on the international market and one as a minor league free agent.
The Yankees are obviously hoping the pitchers they sign this winter turn out more like Greg Maddux in Atlanta and the earlier version of Johnson in Arizona. Those free agents pitched their teams to a title within three years. But the Yankees believe they are closer than that. They are about to hunt for big game, hoping that big games return to the Bronx next fall.Continue reading the main story

Global Witness is an advocacy campaign that I have mentioned previously in my blog. They were one of the first organizations to bring the world's attention to the problem of conflict diamonds. They released a report "A Rough Trade" in 1998 exposing the role of diamonds in funding the civil war in Angola. This publicized the secret trade practices of the diamond industry in many African regions.
Thanks to Global Witness, international pressure helped force governments take action to eliminate conflict diamonds from international trade. It introduced the Kimberly process in 2003 which certifies that diamonds are not fueling conflict. Global Witness is using their expertise in the blood diamonds campagn to fight to make sure cell phones are also free from the taint of conflict human rights abuses.
Despite some difficult attempts at industry self-regulation, Global Witness is working hard for both campaigns. They were nominated for the 2003 Nobel Peace Prize for their work combating conflict diamonds. They were recognized for all their hard work almost a decade ago, and shows perseverence in their campaign against conflict minerals now.
Here is more information regarding the Kimberly Process. Hopefully we can use the same campaign strategies to establish a similar process to ensure conflict free cell phones.

By Charles H. Traub and Jonathan Lipkin
Originally published in 2003, In the Realm of the Circuit is an introduction to the aesthetic and historical precedents of the new electronic media's multi-faceted human dialog. It tells the story of how technology has always been integrally connected to human expression and gives students the tools to connect technological practice to cultural heritage. The intrinsic links between art, technology and the humanities are examined, especially with regard to how they are shaped and how they shape each other.
This profusely and imaginatively illustrated volume draws on art, artifacts, icons and annotations from ancient civilization to the present, to illustrate the 21st century's drive to the current possibilities of the computer. This volume allows students, scholars, and creative individuals to place today's sometimes daunting technological achievements in a humanist framework.
The book is currently out of print, but the text is available online at metaforas.org, and used copies are widely available at online booksellers such as abe.com.

Pop star Rihanna is determined to forge ahead with her movie career even though she is terrified of acting.
The Rude Boy hitmaker made her move into Hollywood in board game-based blockbuster Battleship in 2012, and she went on to land cameos in This Is The End and Annie, as well as voicing the lead part in new animated movie Home.
Rihanna admits movie work is daunting, but she has no plans to quit.
Speaking on U.K. chat show Lorraine, she says, "As a musician I feel a lot more confident in that, acting is just so new. I have so much respect for actors and it definitely is very intimidating to be amongst them and it's scary, acting is scary. Even when I was doing (Home) I felt like there is so much to learn. Your voice can really dictate a lot. I think as long as I work at it I don't see why I wouldn't do film. I've had very fun experiences so far."

Designed for children, the piece enables them to sit on the bench up top and dangle legs above the bed. At first, this design was customized for a family who wanted to save space in their small flat. Unique to this furniture is that it is a modern bedroom in itself, with tall walls which serve as a partition and a stairs to the floating desk.

I hope readers will see the beauty of God's grace and be strengthened in their faith or come to faith in the only true God.

The story begins at her diagnosis and chronicles the challenging journey of treatment – includes the victories and setbacks – a courageous battle spanning three years. Both the author and his wife had tremendous faith and truly appreciated the outpouring of support from their family, friends and faith community.
