I feel that I got lucky because any sense of security was polled out from me, so I was forced to look forward, I had to, and was no going back. And I reach the point, where I just thought, "All right, I'd got to work as hard as I possiblly can, and see what happens".
I was 15 when I went out in the world. What's a home anyway? A roof? A bed? A place where when you go there, they have to take you? If so, then I was 15 when I became homeless.
什么是家?一个屋顶? 床?必须接纳你的地方?如果那样的话,15岁我开始无家可归。
Don't close your eyes, rise again after you fall, you need to get out.
Keep their eyes shut to the wholeness of the situation. All those tinny things that have come together to make it, what it is.
Because I was turned so inward by mom and dad, I got chance to see how all the little tiny things come together to make the final product. So I was never inclined to wonder why this or why that. I knew why. Not that I was happy about it, in fact I was really sad about it, some of the time. but I was very excepting, I was very excepting. I just always knew that I need to get out.
Sometimes I feel like there is skin upon the world. And those of us who are born under it, can see threw it. We just can't get threw it.
I'm smart. I know I can succeed. I just need a chance. A chance to climb out of this place I've born in. Everyone I know are angry and tired. They're trying to survive. But I know that there is a world out there that is better, that's better developed. And I want to live in it.
The world is changing while you're just a stardust. The earth turns arround with or without you. Reality doesn't change according to your will.
I'd give it back, all of it, if I could have my family back.
The world moves you just suspect. It could no happen without you. Situations are not conduced to what you want for yourself. Someone else's needs, someone else's plate is going to be stronger than yours is.
Don't close your eyes, rise again after you fall, you need to get out.

Ron Dermer, Israel's new Ambassador to the United States, claims that Israel is fighting not just a war against Hamas, but a larger war against the growing moral impairment of what used to be called the civilized world; not just to defeat Hamas militarily but to restore moral clarity to a world that refuses to accept there is such a thing.
Israel will certainly win its current war against Hamas. In fact, it has already done so, but victory in the war for moral clarity– for the virtue of acknowledging the proper value of human life– is far less certain.
As Dennis Prager writes in Townhall, "The moral gulf between Israel and Hamas is as clear and great as the one between the Allies and Nazi Germany."
That Hamas is a terror group engaging in multiple war crimes as agreed and codified in a serious of international treaties commonly known as the Geneva conventions should be evident even to the most morally challenged. Firing at civilians, from behind civilians, while blocking the escape of their own civilians trying to heed Israeli warnings? The baseball world would call it three strikes your out. A morally centered world would call it a triple war crime. Alas, the world we live in is not morally centered.
Hamas commits all of the war crimes mentioned above and will commit any others it can devise for precisely the same reason that Nazi Germany committed them. Because just like Nazi Germany, Hamas is committed to genocide against the Jewish people.
And unlike Nazi Germany, Hamas exists for no other purpose than to commit genocide. Not even the Nazis claimed their only purpose was to murder the Jews. Adolf Hitler's first job as a young member of the brand new National Socialist German Worker's Party in 1920 was to draft the group's founding principles, goals and values. He called it the National Socialist Program and it contained 25 points. The National Socialist program contained provisions demanding everything from the unification of all Germans inside one Germany, the abrogation of the hated Versailles Treaty and expulsion of all non-Germans from Germany, the abolition of all unearned income, the confiscation of all war profits, the division of all profits and the expansion of all old age pensions. Only two of the 25 points mentioned Jews.
Not so Hamas. Hamas stands separate and distinct from all their evil predecessors, even Hitler's Germany, which was strongly supported by the Arab world.
Established in 1987 as the Palestinian branch of Egyptian Muslim Hamas, which is an Arabic acronym for the 'Islamic Resistance Movement" was created and exists today to pursue only one goal. Hamas' founding charter makes abundantly clear that its fundamental purpose is to destroy the State of Israel and to murder all the Jews in it.
"The time will not come until Muslims will fight the Jews (and kill them); until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, which will cry: 0 Muslim! there is a Jew hiding behind me, come forward and kill him!" proclaims Hamas' founding document.
While Nazi Germany pursued whole scale genocide against the Jews with a merciless abandon that culminated in the Holocaust of World War II — genocide itself was never a stated, public objective of Adolph Hitler's Nazi regime. Far from it. Research libraries are overflowing with documentary evidence of the extraordinary steps the Nazis took to hide their genocide of the Jews. Only in private did the Nazis gloat at how many Jews they were able to murder. To their own people, they denied it all and went to great lengths to destroy evidence of their monumental crimes. Even Nazis had a sense of shame.
Not so Hamas. Hamas does not hide its genocidal intent. It celebrates it. Hamas does not destroy evidence of its attempts at genocide; it puts those attempts to music and broadcasts them on youtube. Hamas isn't ashamed it seeks to murder every Jew it can. It is the source of its greatest pride
Much as they would like us all to believe otherwise however, celebrating genocide is not a Hamas invention. Hamas learned it from the more "moderate" PLO. The central square of Ramallah, the current administrative center of the Palestinian Authority, as the former PLO is now known, is named after Dalal al-Magribi, the notorious terror mastermind behind the horrifying 1978 Coastal Road Massacre. The main Ramallah thoroughfare is named for Yehya Ayash, the terrorist who boasted of murdering hundreds of Jewish civilians as leader of Hamas' Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades.
No town squares in the Third Reich were rechristened to honor gas chamber operators. No soccer stadiums in Hitler's Germany were named to celebrate Einsatzgruppen commanders. Not so Hamas. Dozens of streets and soccer stadiums in Palestinian towns have been renamed to honor and glorify its own foot soldiers of genocide– the hallowed suicide bomber.
Hamas' intent to murder all the Jews of Israel today is no different than Hitler's intent to murder all the Jews of Europe two generations ago.
When it comes to Jewish genocide, capability is all that distinguishes Hamas and Nazi Germany. Not will, not desire, certainly not intent; only ability.
The Nazis were able to murder six million Jews during World War II because Jews had no capability to defend themselves. Hamas hasn't been able murder any Jews during its current war against Israel because today's Jews defend themselves with the most capable anti-terror army in the world.


text: Many churches today believe that contemporary worship is the type of worship that their church should have, since it is so popular elsewhere. The church needs to understand the culture and location of their church so that they can adapt their worship to the style that will appropriately fit the culture. Many east coast churches are trying the relaxed and loose style of worship service, because that is what is popular on the west coast. However, the east coast lifestyle is different. Many things that are effective on the west coast are not on the east coast. An effective church is one that recognizes how they can be affective in their community, and not what the church leaders want to do. Also, today's church needs to remain Biblical, rather than a feel-good place to play music. Today's churches need to promote spiritual growth among their members, and not just an increase in numbers.

Gwendolyn Ellen
Senior Faculty Research Assistant
My research interests are in promoting participatory agricultural research, biological pest management and the sustainability of agro-ecosystems at the farm and community level. As the coordinator of the Farmscaping for Beneficials Project at the Integrated Plant Protection Center I am integrating farmer experiential knowledge of creating farm habitat for beneficials organisms with research questions on the effects of creating and enhancing such habitat on the populations of pest and beneficial invertebrates on the farm and local farming community. Examples of such habitat include hedgerows, beetle banks (permanent, undisturbed habitat for predacious ground beetles), and numerous configurations of farm insectary planting.I work with a dynamic team of local, organic vegetable growers, OSU researchers, and Oregon non-profit organizations and NRCS conservationists coordinating experiential learning exchanges in the form of field classes, farm walks, BugScaping Fairs and interactive habitat planning sessions known as BugScaping Games (see http://www.ipmnet.org/BeetleBank/Farmscaping_for_Beneficials.html ). Out in the field, I am currently working on the third and forth year of a farmer directed project with 2-3organic vegetable farms in Oregon. We are exploring the construction, maintenance and pest management value of on-farm beetle banks using native bunch grasses. You can go to www.beetlebank.org to read more about our work. I also design and conduct field experiments on three demo beetle banks at Hyslop Research Station and insectary hedgerows. We have planted a demonstration hedgerow at the USDA NRCS Plant Materials Center in Corvallis and have one in the works for an organic blueberry plot at OSU's North Willamette Research and Education Center in 2010. I facilitate the Western Region Functional Agricultural Biodiversity (FAB) Work Group. We are a group with 30 members from Oregon, Idaho, Washington, and California who work in all aspects of functional agricultural biodiversity. We are farmers, researchers, industry personnel and conservationists committed to furthering FAB concepts in the western region through research, collaboration, and adoption of farm practices. We sponsored a four-farm, Willamette Valley FAB Tour for Ag Policy makers and regulators in the summer 2009 in place of a winter symposium.

Yucatan Fly Fishing Adventures
Tarpon Caye at San Felipe
Not far from the bustling madness of Cancun on the northern shore of the Yucatan Peninsula is the charming town of San Felipe and an unparalleled opportunity to fly fish for juvenile tarpon in the 5 to 25+ pound class. Recognized by the government for its biological wealth, this incredible fishery has been designated a marine preserve, thus protecting this tarpon "nursery" from commercial netting and fishing.
Most of the fishing at Tarpon Cay Lodge occurs over very shallow flats that are covered by a dark colored, broad leafed turtle grass. Roving schools of tarpon in the 5lb – 15lb class can number just a few or several hundred. The guides are excellent at scanning for rolling fish and would expertly pole the boat to intercept a school on the move and get us in position for a cast. At times we would anchor the boat and wait as football field sized shoals of fish would cruise to within casting range. We'd launch the fly in the general direction and retrieve with a brisk strip that kept the fly off the bottom. After that, it's just a game of watching your fly disappear into a big, black bucket of a mouth and holding on! The resulting aerial display is breathtaking, as they tail-walk, leap, and launch themselves into the air with reckless abandon.
Accommodations at Tarpon Cay are airy and bright with rooms featuring ocean views, ceiling fans, air conditioning and private baths. Delicious, hearty meals are served in the main lodge with most anglers taking full advantage of the rooftop decks in the evening hours.
Tarpon Cay Lodge is truly the standard in world-class fly fishing for "baby" tarpon. Ranging in size from 5 to 25 pounds, these fish reside in environs of open water turtle grass flats and mangrove lined lagoons, creeks, and bays. This habitat is also home to Snook and Barracuda. Most significantly, this incredible fishery has been designated a marine preserve, thus protecting this Tarpon "nursery" from commercial netting and fishing. The hallmark of the fishery at Tarpon Cay Lodge is the sheer numbers of baby tarpon that inhabit the region. On a calm day, it is not uncommon to observe pods of Tarpon rolling and slashing bait on the flats - an awe-inspiring moment to say the least ... don't forget to cast. Another highlight is during the months of June thru August, migratory Tarpon (40 to 100+ pounds) inhabit the waters near Tarpon Cay Lodge. If weather conditions allow (low wind) anglers can pursue these "Silver Kings." Whether you are sight-casting to rolling tarpon on the flats or working the mangroves with your top-water pattern, fly fishing for tarpon is a pure adrenaline rush.
Fishing Program:
Tarpon Cay Lodge utilizes spacious 18 foot pangas with an extensive level casting deck. All fly fishing is conducted out of these stealthy, stable, and comfortable fishing platforms. The nearest boundary of the fishery is very close to the lodge and, therefore, only requires a 15 - 25 minute boat ride to arrive at most of your Yucatan fly fishing areas.
The wonderful part of fly fishing at Tarpon Cay Lodge is that most of the fishing is done with floating lines. The Tarpon hold or cruise in areas as shallow as one foot deep! This shallow water pursuit demands lightweight (slow sinking) Tarpon flies or top-water offerings such as floating Puglisis, sliders, or crease flies. When conditions are prime, this shallow water fly fishing makes for an exciting visual display - Tarpon waking behind your fly and a top-water "blow-up" finale ... it does not get any better than this!
Meals & Accommodations:
The accommodations at Tarpon Cay Lodge are comfortable, bright, and enriched with traditional Mexican decor. With the ocean at its doorstep, the sea breeze and beautiful scenery refreshes the spirit after a long day of fighting Tarpon. A spacious lounge provides dining areas, comfortable seating for relaxing, and a nice workspace for fly tying or working on tackle at the day's end. As you venture upstairs, you will find spacious guest rooms equipped with air-conditioning, fans, and a full private bath with shower. Rooms are bright with a nice ocean view. There is a housekeeping service that cleans the room and replaces linens, towels, bottled drinking water, cups, and bar soap each day. A unique feature of the lodge is a nice rooftop balcony. It provides a splendid 360 degree view of the charming area surrounding the lodge - perfect for after-dinner relaxation.
The meals are another highlight of your stay at Tarpon Cay Lodge. Hearty portions with a local flavor are an absolute culinary delight for the big appetite. Breakfast is ordered the night prior from a full menu (American and Mexican dishes). Your breakfast will be promptly served in the morning to assure you an on-time start of your daily fishing adventure. Lunches consist of made-to-order sandwiches, snacks, and assorted beverages.
Upon your return from an exciting day of tarpon-mania, dinner is served. Entrees include a lot of fresh fish with some chicken, pork, shrimp, or sometimes lobster in-season. The meals at Tarpon Cay Lodge are truly unique and delicious. Additionally, the lodge can accommodate most dietary restrictions. Let the staff know and they will prepare an appetizing alternative that is often looked over with envy by your fellow dinner guests.
Typical Daily Schedule:
Your fishing program will be based on tides and weather conditions. On some weeks, you will fish from morning through the afternoon. Many weeks, the fishing program is based on a split shirt consist of early morning fishing through the AM hours, a 3 hour break mid-day (lunch, "siesta", rigging, fly tying, etc.), and then an evening session of fishing lasting through sunset. Your guides will determine the program based on the optimum timing of tides and weather.
Travel Logistics:
To get to Tarpon Cay Lodge you will need to make flight arrangements to Cancun International Airport (CUN), Mexico. Please schedule your flight to arrive Cancun no later than 4:00PM. This will ensure a timely pick-up and ample time to drive approximately 3.5 hours to Tarpon Cay Lodge.
After clearing Customs and Immigration at Cancun International Airport, a Tarpon Cay Lodge representative will greet you in front of the Berryhill Restaurant to the left, after you exit the terminal outside.
On departure day, after an early breakfast you will be driven approximately 3.5 hours back to Cancun for your flight home. Please do not book your flight to depart before 1:00PM.

Reforming NYC's Capital Projects Management
Reforming NYC's Capital Projects Management
SUMMARY l THE ISSUE BRIEF l CUF's "SLOW BUILD" REPORT
In the wake of ongoing City Council attention to the weaknesses in NYC's capital projects management system, Finance Chair Julissa Ferreras-Copeland and Deputy Leader for Policy Brad Lander, along with Council Members Mark Levine, Andy Cohen, Ritchie Torres, and James Vacca, released an issue brief further highlighting the problem, and announced a package of legislation to reform the City's system for managing capital projects.
The issue brief, prepared by Council Member Lander's office, is based on an analysis of the City's Capital Projects Dashboard, which tracks City Capital projects over $25 million. The brief finds that 44% of projects are severely late, and 42% are severely over budget. Of the 44 projects that are both severely late and severely over-budget, 43 are managed by the NYC Department of Design and Construction (DDC). On average, they are $30 million over-budget, and 700 days late. The issue brief is attached for download below.
The Council's report builds upon the recent "Slow Build" report from the Center for an Urban Future, which focused on DDC's management of library and cultural projects. The projects reviewed by CUF take an average of over 4 years to complete and can sometimes drag on for more than a decade. Construction costs on these capital projects are through the roof, with the median cost of construction at a staggering $930 per square foot -- roughly double the cost of new office space in NYC.
The Council Members announced a package of legislation that would establish a Capital Projects Management Reform Task Force to develop and implement fundamental reforms, overhaul the project evaluation system, update the City's process for assessing the adequacy of NYC's infrastructure, and dramatically improve transparency and reporting. The legislation is detailed below.
To address these issues, the Issue Brief sets forth a set of new recommendations to Reform NYC's Capital Management Process:
- Establish a Capital Projects Management Reform Task Force, as recommended in CUF's "Slow Build" report and included in the CIty Council's Preliminary Budget Response to review the capital construction process to identify and mitigate the inefficiencies that plague the system.
- Expand the City's Capital Projects Dashboard to include capital projects under $25 million to improve accountability and transparency in how the City manages capital projects.
- Reform the City's Capital Projects Evaluation Process to standardize quality performance metrics, customer satisfaction, ability to minimize change orders and maintenance costs among other factors.
- Expand the Scope of the City's Asset Information Management System (AIMS) provides information about the sufficiency and adequacy of all City infrastructure, to better understand the full scope of capital needs in NYC's neighborhoods.
- Expand the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) web based capital projects tracker to include more detailed information regarding its capital projects, including the reasons for delays, the dates projects were fully funded, the total number of projects in its portfolio, projected and actual cost overruns, individual sources of funding and the length of time it took to complete each project.
In addition to the above recommendations, the Issue Brief calls for the passage of three bills that seek to notify elected officials about delay on all capital projects and to bring further accountability and transparency to the Parks Department:
- Council Member Andrew Cohen's Intro 1543-2017 would require all CIty agencies that manage capital projects to notify the affected council member, borough president and community board within 30 days of learning about delays of 60 days or more.
- Council Member Ritchie Torres' Intro 1340-2017 would require DPR to provide regular updates on the status of DPR capital projects to Council Members who funded such projects. It would also require DPR to notify contractors when it has denied payment for work done by such contractors on a DPR capital project. Such notification would have to include the reasons for such denial and the process for the contractor to satisfactorily complete the project and receive payment.
- Council Member James Vacca's Intro 407-2014 would require DPR to provide written notice of a change order to a contract for a DPR capital project to Council Member who allocated funding to such capital project, within 30 days of implementing such change order.
The goal of this effort is to work collaboratively with the Administration to give this critical issue the attention it deserves. The Council Members look forward to working with Mayor de Blasio, OMB, DDC, City agencies, leading experts and vendors on this package of legislation to identify best practices, root out inefficiencies, streamline the capital projects management system to keep costs down and improve the City's accountability to the public on these critical infrastructure projects.

Watch Opening Ceremony Turn the Runway Into a Ballet for Spring 2016
Opening Ceremony has established itself as the brand to watch during New York Fashion Week for creative approaches to runway shows. They've staged a live theater production, rented out a giant warehouse, and this year, they topped themselves by hiring a New York City Ballet choreographer to bring their runway models to life in a whole new way.
Justin Peck, the 27-year-old ballet wunderkind who was the subject of last year's fascinating documentary Ballet 422, brought his signature modern-meets-classical skill set to Opening Ceremony's S/S 2016 collection presented yesterday. The buzz on Instagram was that everyone initially thought all the models were falling, when in reality they were dancing!
Watch a clip of the gorgeous presentation below, then keep scrolling to see our favorite looks from the collection! And be sure to shop current Opening Ceremony pieces, too.

Calling All Zombies—Necroville, a locally produced, low-budget horror comedy shooting here in Albuquerque, is attempting to film the largest zombie siege ever lensed in the state of New Mexico. Hence, all zombie wannabes are asked to attend the Zombie Siege Day, taking place Saturday, April 23, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Anyone interested is asked to lumber their way to the SolArts Theater (712 Central SW) that morning. Pizza and soda will be provided for lunch. The theater will afford adequate shelter, water and bathrooms. C.R. Productions, makers of Necroville, recommend bringing a fold-up chair, a book, a Gameboy and other luxuries to pass the day. Zombie makeup is water soluble, but extras are advised to wear their best beat up/throw away clothing. If you have any questions, you can direct them to director Billy Garberina at firstname.lastname@example.com

Under the art deco ceiling of the Egyptian Theatre patrons experience a slew of movie selections during the fourth annual LA EigaFest. The festival seeks to showcase more Japanese movies to a broader audience. Anyone who is a fan of Japanese cinema or looking for just something new to experience, the Eigafest is a good place to be; especially when it's a nicely cooled theater in a soul shattering heat wave.
Opening night featured the international premiere of Lupin III; a live action movie based on a popular manga dating from the sixties (so many cool things happened in the sixties didn't they? Like a certain series involving a police box). The manga centers around a thief who is the grandson of a master thief named Arsine Lupin. Arsine Lupin was originally created by a french author named Maurice LeBlanc. The manga follows Lupin III and his friends through crazy action packed stories.
The guests of honor to the opening night were Ryuhei Kitamura, the director of the movie, along with the producer Mataichiro Yamamoto. The person who made the crowd swell around me and break through the red carpet carrier was the leading actress Meisa Kuroki; she plays Fujito Mine.
After the red carpet event, much confusion due to duplicate ticketing, and other small bouts of random chaos, the premiere was preceded by two special performances. The first was a dance performance by Kenichi Ebina, winner of America's Got Talent.
This was phenomenal. I had the pleasure (and later displeasure) of sitting in the front row so I watched every crazy movement he did. For those in Southern California, he will be performing for two nights at El Camino College September 20 and 21. Information for the event can be found here.
The second performance was a taiko performance by the L.A. Matsuri Taiko group. The power of a taiko drum performance is pretty powerful. To have it less than a foot away from me, I swear I could feel my kidneys shaking. It definitely got my adrenaline pumping for the movie.
The series is extremely popular and well known but this was the first time I heard of it. The director gave a small speech mentioning that the intent of the premiere was to introduce the movie to an international audience. I would then represent a good portion of the population who would be watching this without any prior knowledge or expectation.
What better way to introduce a tight-knit high class thieves than to open the movie with all of their skills The goal is obtain an Egyptian necklace called the "The Crimson Heart"? Timing is tricky; the museum is heavily guarded so how will the item be obtained? The femme fatale known as Fujito Mine (played by Meisa Kuroki) uses extreme flexibility and agility. Then there's the gunman extraordinaire, Jigen (played by Tetsuji Tamayama). Gadgetry was handled by Jiro (played by Shunichi Yamaguchi). They all used precised timing, stealth, and skills to try to obtain the necklace. Lupin the Third (played by Shun Oguri) just plants an explosive and the necklace falls right into his hands (very much like The Italian Job). He would have made a quick get-a-away if it wasn't for Michael Lee (played Jerry) who takes advantage of Lupin's weakness to nab the necklace away.
The whole group are part of an underground criminal ring called The Works headed by Dawson. Dawson is a beloved patriarchal leader of the Works.Through heartbreaking betrayal and utter violent chaos, the "Crimson Heart" is stolen. This begins the unraveling of past betrayals, vengeance, and loads of secrets.
In and around the scheming of the parties, there are fight scenes and a really amazing car chases (mini cooper versus hummer, who do you think wins?). Later we are introduced to Goemon (played by Go Ayanoa) the master swordsman. Goemon was easily the fan favorite (I am including myself) in the theater. He had some amazing lines and comedy sequences.
There was a pretty balanced mix of action, suspense, comedy, and serious moments. A key portion of the movie is also devoted to paying homage to manga.The way the actors postured and exaggerated their speech was a a constant reminder that this is still a comedy-action manga material being dealt here. The one major drawback to the movie is how the action sequences are filmed. All of the moves were really fast and intricate but it was too close to the camera so many times. It was hard to differentiate what was going on through the blur of movement.
This movie would still do a good job of translating to a new and broader audience. It did inspire me to borrow some of the manga and read up on the material. For fans of the series, it does capture the sense of fun and adventure of the manga. A big disappointment may be that the movie is set in modern times not the bright sixties. Since the manga was marketed towards a male demographics, Fujito's breast are not emphasized. Her skills and overall sex appeal is. There is a crazy fight scene where she just fights in a towel after taking a bubble bath.
What I really appreciated the most in the movie was the use and portrayal of Thailand. For once it wasn't focused on drugs or the nightlife. The police chief of Thailand and Inspector Zenigata of Interpol work together to help bring down the biggest crime leader known.
Interesting tidbit: Hayao Miyazaki did an animated adventure movie of Lupin III, titled Il Castello Di Cagliostro.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed Lupin III. It was a multi-faceted movie that never lost it's fun and action.
Thank you to the Eigafest organizers for inviting me to attend the opening night event.

Fair of complexion and elegant in appearance, the lithe Seraphim is an agile, graceful warrior, a master of light and medium weapons. Dressed in heavy or technological armor, the latter a link to the mysterious future from which her kind came to Ancaria long ago, she looks at foes and friends alike through eyes without pupils, her gaze steady and penetrating. It was once her race's assigned mission to safeguard the land against danger and adversity. The fallen angels followed this calling faithfully for eons, but perhaps inevitably, their devotion to it eventually began to wane. As their interest in serving the world faded, their own needs came increasingly to the forefront. Now, all but a very few have forgotten what they previously held sacrosanct. The rest no longer see it as their duty to fight for peace and justice.
When Sacred 2 - Fallen Angel returns us to the domain where Ascaron's hit 2004 action RPG release took place, we can expect to find six playable characters. The seraphim was the first to be revealed, and so far, has been joined by the shadow warrior. Two millennia before the first game, they and the others will find Ancaria embroiled in a destructive civil war. The High Elves who had learned to harness T-Energy, the source of all magic, fought among themselves over which of them should control it. While they battled, the power became corrupted causing areas to become uninhabitable, creatures to mutate, and cities to fall into ruin. With the prequel being shown at the Game Developers Conference last week, we were keen to know more about it. To this end, we got hold of Creative Director Hans-Arno Wegner.
Jonric: Since combat is a central element of Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, what type of system and experience can we expect? What are the key features? Will the player ever control more than one character?
Hans-Arno Wegner: Sacred 2 is an action RPG and therefore combat is at the very centre of the game. The player will spend a lot of time fighting against mobs to level, get better items and so on. This leads to the point where combat needs to be simple, but also interesting and challenging.
if its level is very high, the character has an extremely powerful ability that can kill a typical enemy with one blow, but it will take a long time to regenerate and be available for use again.
Sacred 2 puts the player right in the centre of the gameplay. The fighting will be fast, but against substantial enemies, and it will also be tactical. You can prepare several weapons and spells to be ready for use, enabling you to switch your attacks rapidly according to the situation. If you'd like to use a special combination of Combat Arts, you can feel free to build a combo, which allows you to execute your desired sequence with a single mouse click.
There will be mercenaries that fight beside the hero if you so wish. We have not only the single-player action in mind, but also multiplayer team play. A lot of Combat Art effects can encompass other party members. Some characters can be optimized especially for gaming in a party. There are many combinations for players to consider and try out while deciding how to build an effective tactical group.
Jonric: Is it also safe to assume that weapons, armor and other items will be important? Will we see many different types in the game?
We want to construct everything in a way such that the attributes occur on a particular will be appropriate. Just how fitting is a breastplate that deals fire damage? Or a dagger that increases armor values? We also give each item type individual attributes that emphasize the character of this type. In the end, there will be hundreds of different attributes we can give an item, which gives us enough room to build really cool stuff and to give players the freedom to choose.
Jonric: How about special pieces of equipment? Are you creating many rare or unique ones for players to find and collect?
Hans-Arno Wegner: All of the equipment just discussed can be found as so-called standard drops, but there are tons of rare, unique and set items to find as well. I always like to remember the reaction of our customers in Sacred when the first player entered the city wearing sunglasses instead of a helmet. Everyone wanted to get one, and we had a run on our servers toward the island Mal-Ork-A. You can anticipate more special things like this in Sacred 2...
Jonric: What about the magic system? How will it function, and what's particularly distinctive or interesting about this aspect of the game?

Title: The Ethos Effect
Author: L. E. Modesitt, Jr.
Publish Date: 2003
Publisher: Tom Doherty Associates, LLC
Type: Novel
Genre: Science Fiction
Sub-Genre: Space Travel, Starships, Advanced Technology, Advanced Medical, Advanced Weapons, Religion, Ethics, Alien Species, Terra-forming, Armed Conflict, Diplomacy, Assassination, Genocide, Racism, Clones, Immortality, Politics, Space Empires
Plot Summary:
In the galaxy of the future, several Empires vie for control of the smaller systems that still maintained their independence. Van Albert was an officer and ship commander before he was severely wounded during an assassination attempt that he foiled.
The Republic retired him after that since he was wounded so badly. But he is able to obtain a position with a foundation based in coalition-controlled parts of the galaxy, piloting a starship and delivering assistance to those that could afford the foundation's information services.
The Revenants are aggressive in their religious pursuits and take over system after system economically, then physically. The other Empires don't want a repeat of the intergalactic war that killed millions, so the Revenant expansion is tolerated by all.
But now, Van is a problem. The Republic doesn't like him because he's a 'dark' Taran and looks different. The Revenants hate him because he foiled their assassination attempt. An assassin has been dispatched.
Van Albert was born a dark-skinned Taran citizen on the planet Sulyn. He joined the Republic Space Force and became one of the few dark Tarans to command a starship. He was also very intuitive and observant.
He learned very quickly and acted just as fast. But the RSF thought he was a threat because he could figure out situations quickly from limited knowledge. The RSF was struggling to get new spaceships and if Van kept doing well with his old ship, it would be hard to get them approved. But if his ship was destroyed by an enemy because it was too outdated to defend itself, that would be another story.
Van survives the attack and is later approached to join the IIS Foundation as a pilot to help businesses throughout the galaxy, in any of the Empires and Independent Systems. His job is to supply information to help them prosper and grow.
One of the Empires begins pushing itself on the outer fringe systems harder and those people in the systems that do not conform are enslaved and sent for "re-education". But the other Empires seem to be just standing on the sidelines, content to watch as long as they are not directly affected by the advances or attacked.
But Van finds out that the IIS ships are much more than just courier ships. They have the capabilities of light space cruisers. Van wonders why that is so as he takes command of a newly commissioned, more powerful one of his own.

We need, more than ever, to think on beauty. We need to surround ourselves with nature, art, music, literature. We must lift up our hearts and minds to God in His created realm, and the sub-creation of humanity.
Last night, I went to get a massage. This, by the way, is a form of beauty. It is the beauty of the human body, the healing touch, the care for God's creation.
I was so relaxed driving home. I was amidst miles and miles of apple trees, all bursting and burdened with fruit. It was that point in time known as the gloaming: the most magical time of day. And I heard this song:
Lay your head down tonight
Take a rest from the fight
Don't try to figure it out
Just listen to what I'm whispering to your heart
'Cause I know this is not
Anything like you thought
The story of your life was gonna be
And it feels like the end has started closing in on you
But it's just not true
There's so much of the story that's still yet to unfold
And this is going to be a glorious unfolding
Just you wait and see and you will be amazed
You've just got to believe the story is so far from over
So hold on to every promise God has made to us
And watch this glorious unfolding
(Steven Curtis Chapman, Glorious Unfolding)
Take time this weekend to enjoy the beauty around you. Breathe. Rest your eyes on a piece of art. Read a poem and linger over it. See what glorious unfolding God has in store for you.

No Voice? No Sound?
Every so often you may try to play a cassette but find there is no voice. One possible cause is that the battery has died. Using the cord that is tucked into the top end of your machine, plug your cassette player into a wall outlet. An overnight charge will provide approximately six hours of play time. It is alright to play cassettes while you are charging your battery.
Another possible cause is that the cassette tape needs repair. Try using a second tape to see if your machine is operating properly. If it is, place a string or rubber band around the problem cassette and return the book to us. Call your Readers Advisor to request a second copy.
Cassette Magazines Address Needs of Mature Readers
If you are retirement age, several magazines on cassette might be of special interest to you. Life Lines, published by Aging Services/LAAA, highlights activities within Butler, Fillmore, Lancaster, Polk, Saline, Saunders, Seward, and York Counties. This magazine, recorded in our own studios, also features general topics, programs, issues, and activities concerning senior citizens.
Modern Maturity, published by the American Association of Retired Persons and recorded by the Arizona Regional Library, offers short articles of interest to persons over age 50. Topics include travel, cooking, economics, second careers, and health.
Older Nebraskan's Voice, features health news, legislative reviews, and personal profiles. Published by the Nebraska Health and Human Services System, Aging Services, it is recorded in our own studios.
If you are interested in learning more about visual impairment, you might wish to read the Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, published and recorded monthly by the American Foundation for the Blind. This scholarly journal presents articles for professional practitioners and researchers. It serves as a forum for the exchange of ideas, airing of controversies, and discussion of issues.
To sign up for any of these cassette magazines, please use the order form below or call your Readers Advisor.
Just for Fun . . .
Here is a fun question posed to Talking Book and Braille Service staff: What are your favorite family holiday traditions?
I love the piney smell of a fresh Christmas tree, and that's the kind we always had. (Jacque)
I used to love decorating cut-out sugar cookies and gingerbread men, then giving them as a surprise to the mail carrier, trash collector, and any other folks who provide valuable, but sometimes unnoticed, services to us all year. (Cherie)
My family arrives at Grandpa's farm a day early to help with the prep work. The table is stretched from one end of the dining room to the other. My daughter sometimes uses origami to fold the napkins. After the big family meal, my brothers wash the dishes. (Annette)

Borrowers' Talking Books Experiences
In our latest survey, 130 borrowers told us about their experiences communicating with us and using talking books. Most respondents (97) indicated they can always, or almost always, telephone the Talking Book and Braille Service without difficulty. Eight respondents didn't know our phone number; and one had problems hearing or understanding us over the phone.
Sixteen respondents did not know we have a toll-free 800 number for callers who live outside the Lincoln calling area. When asked about using our telephone answering machine, forty-four respondents reported they have never used it to leave a message. Nineteen, however, have used it without difficulty.
Nearly all respondents (92) felt that postcards and letters from the library communicate clearly.
Most respondents (96) found that all, or almost all, of their cassette books perform properly. Forty-one reported some problem with the sound being garbled; and 25 said the voice just stops. Nine respondents indicated a problem with there being no voice; while six reported that one or more books appear to end before the story is finished.
Ten respondents told us that one in twenty cassette mailing boxes have broken or missing straps; three said this was the case for one out of ten. However, 113 respondents told us this seldom or never happens.
Our thanks to all borrowers who responded!
Cassettes Missing From Your Book?
Every so often a borrower or family member lets us know that a cassette book is incomplete. Either the book seems to start in the middle or else is missing its ending. Upon inspecting the book, library staff often finds that the book is complete.
What might be confusing is exactly how four-track tapes should be played on the Library of Congress C-1 cassette players. Commercial audiotapes are two-track, which means that two separate sound tracks are recorded on the surface of the tape. Talking books from our library are different, however, in that they follow the Library of Congress format of four tracks on each cassette. Typically, four separate sound tracks are recorded on the surface of each tape; two sound tracks per side. That is the reason why the cassettes are labeled 1, 5, 9, 13, and so on.
Another distinction of talking books is that they are recorded at 15/16 inches per second, which is one-half the standard commercial speed. By using four tracks and this special play speed, each talking book cassette can hold four times the amount of recording as a commercial tape.
To begin playing each cassette of a talking book or magazine, remember that the speed control on the face of the cassette player should be toggled to the left, indicating 15/16, unless the cassette is marked as playing at 1 and 7/8. Also, make sure the side selector switch is toggled to the left, which is marked 1-2. When you finish side 2, turn the cassette over and toggle the side selector switch to the right, or 3-4, in order to continue listening to that cassette.

First things first, you need to create a project for a domain you want to perform a site audit on. Go to List of Projects(1) and click on Add New Project(2). Enter a domain name and a project name. If you already have a project created for the target domain, you'll need just to click Start Audit(3) on the project dashboard to launch the audit.
You'll be prompted to configure crawling settings: the maximum number of pages to be crawled, the scanning speed (you can leave the automatic speed control box checked or uncheck it and set a custom crawling speed by pulling the slider towards higher or lower speed indicator). Click on More options to access advanced settings:
Here you can tell the crawler whether it should crawl subdomains and adhere to your robots.txt guidelines (both options enabled by default); set the condition under which only pages with a specific word in their URL are going to be crawled; an input http authorization credentials if the site is not publicly accessible yet and you'd like to check it against errors before going live:
When the site audit is finished, you'll see an SDO score on the project dashboard — a metric that measures site's technical optimization on a scale from 1 to 100. It's calculated as a ratio of the found issues and their severity to the number of checked issue types and number of crawled pages. The higher the SDO score, the better your site is optimized
For details on the site audit findings, go to Site Audit > Audit Summary. The first thing you'll see here is a concise report with visual elements that displays the number of found errors from three categories: high, middle priority, and low priority errors. The Information category presents data that is not necessarily errors - for example, pages with a canonical tag. All errors from a particular category can be accessed by clicking the corresponding figure. On the left, Serpstat presents findings of the last audit; on the right - the previous audit results (if you did any previously). Serpstat checks for viruses on the website as well - the data is taken from Google Safe Browser. The report can be exported in PDF or XLSX.
You can compare the site audit results with the previous audit by selecting the necessary audit from the dropdown. Also, you can start another site audit by clicking Repeat Analysis.
High priority errors are the most dangerous and damaging for your domain SEO. Fixing those errors should be the first item on your to-do list.
Middle priority errors are not so severe as the high priority ones, but still, they have a heavy negative impact on your online visibility.
Low priority errors are not so undermining for the website SEO and can be sorted out after fixing the first two categories.
The scheduling options are: daily, every 3 days, every 7 days or manual. By default, manual option is on.
SDO Score Dynamics displays the changes in the SDO from the audits history.
Below you'll find the Categories: types of errors merged into logical blocks. To get errors of a particular type, click the category name:
Serpstat Site Audit checks sites for the following errors.
HTTP Status Code.
Pages that respond with 5xx or 4xx codes. If our crawler received of these codes from the site's hosting server, the corresponding section in the report will have a gray checkmark. To get details, expand the error report.
The report features:
- Broken URL
- Status code for the broken URL
- Pages linking to the broken URL
Meta Tags
Serpstat Site Audit checks meta tags for the following errors:
- duplicate titles or descriptions
- missing title/description
- title/description length (too short or too long)
H1-H6 headings are used for creating page structure - they indicate the importance of page contents. H1 is the most important heading, mostly used for post titles, item names etc. H6 is the least important heading.
Every page should have only one H1 heading, while each H1 heading should be unique within the site. You have to keep the valid ordering of headings.
Serpstat inspects pages for two major errors:
- missing H1 heading;
- invalid heading nesting.
Accessibility & Indexation
Indexation is the process of analyzing data collected by search engine crawlers from a website. The documents are later added to the search engine's index.
To be indexed, a page needs to be accessible to crawlers. Serpstat checks the pages for the following errors:
- canonical errors;
- flash elements;
- iframes;
- disallowed pages in robots.txt - check that you have proreply set disallow directives;
- pages with '
noindex' tag - check that you have correctly set noindextags;
- too little text on a page.
Redirection is the process of forwarding users and robots from the requested URL to other URL.
Types of redirects:
- 301, permanent redirect (recommended)
- 302, temporary redirect
It's recommended to avoid linking to the redirected page.
Serpstat displays following data:
- redirected page;
- redirect code
- redirect target page
- number of pages with redirects
A page should have some outbound links, however, too many outgoing links may cause page rank leakage.
Server Parameters
Serpstat validates domains against the following:
presenceof an SSL certificate
- redirects between the www and non-www URLs
- redirect from
httpto https
Audit Summary also features some charts: Crawl Depth, Redirect Types and Status Codes.
Crawl Depth - the number of clicks required to access a specific page, considering the homepage as a starting point. The X-axis displays how many clicks a user needs to make to reach a page and the Y-axis shows how many pages have a particular depth level. The main page is set to 1.
Redirect Type - the number of pages that have a specific redirect type. The X-axis displays how many pages have the type of redirect indicated on the Y-axis.
Status Codes - the number of pages that return certain HTTP codes. The X-axis displays how many pages return the status code indicated on the Y-axis.

Elder Sign
It is 1926, and the museum's extensive collection of exotic curios and occult artifacts poses a threat to the barriers between our world and the elder evils lurking between dimensions. Gates to the beyond begin to leak open, and terrifying creatures of increasing strength steal through them. Animals, the mad, and those of more susceptible minds are driven to desperation by the supernatural forces the portals unleash. Only a handful of investigators race against time to locate the eldritch symbols necessary to seal the portals forever. Only they can stop the Ancient One beyond from finding its way to Earth and reducing humanity to cinders.
Elder Sign is a fast-paced, cooperative dice game of supernatural intrigue for one to eight players by Richard Launius and Kevin Wilson, the designers of Arkham Horror. Players take the roles of investigators racing against time to stave off the imminent return of the Ancient One. Armed with tools, allies, and occult knowledge, investigators must put their sanity and stamina to the test as they adventure to locate Elder Signs, the eldritch symbols used to seal away the Ancient Ones and win the game.
To locate Elder Signs, investigators must successfully endure Adventures within the museum and its environs. A countdown mechanism makes an Ancient One appear if the investigators are not quick enough. The investigators must then battle the Ancient One. A clever and thematic dice mechanism pits their exploration against monsters and the sheer difficulty of staying sane and healthy, all within the standard game duration of one to two hours.
