Dear fellow musicians,
Even though I'm very fond of GPO and GOS, I don't seem to be getting a nice violin and cello sound. I guess I'm quite critical about sounds because I'm used to working with real strings, so I want to get almost every detail.
I really like the agility of the LEG EXP instruments in GOS but
especially the violins and the cellos come across as quite sythesizer like.
The Grand Sustain Violins are wicked, but they don't have the LEG(ato) feature.
I really like the Miroslav Vitous strings, because they sound so musical. For example, the violins sound great for nice, slow legato lines. But the Vitous samples are not as agile as the GOS. Also, i much prefer the short bows in GOS than in Vitous.
Does anyone has the same problem. Has anyone had experience in mixing the GOS and Miroslav together, so that in fact you have one great library? I've noticed that the Miroslav samples are panned differently than the GOS. Do you think this can be solved?
Also, does anybody know if you can import e.g. the miroslav samples into the GOS so you can make Miroslav EXP LEG instruments?
Well, I'm dying to hear from you.

Has the presidency become just another status symbol for billionaires, like yachts and arm-candy wives?
Since Donald Trump became president, other billionaires have sent out feelers for the 2020 election. They're thinking that if a rich reality TV star with no political experience who bragged about groping women can be elected president, why not them?
Billionaire investor and reality TV show host Mark Cuban told The New York Times' Maureen Dowd he is considering a 2020 run. As a Democrat? Republican? Independent? Doesn't seem to matter much to Cuban, who said he would have accepted an offer to be either Trump's or Hillary Clinton's running mate, according to Dowd. Hmm . . .
Meanwhile, Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg also seems to be testing the waters, planning to visit all 50 states before 2017 ends. For those intoxicated by the idea of a President Zuckerberg, a quick viewing of "The Social Network" should sober you up.
But it's not just male billionaires under consideration for a possible run. When New York Post columnist John Podhoretz called Oprah Winfrey the "Democrats' best hope for 2020," she tweeted, "Thanks for your vote of confidence!" Pollster Nate Silver tweeted, "She's running."
In ancient Rome, bread and circuses bought off the masses too apathetic to keep up with corrupt politics, until the empire crashed. Today, substitute tax-cut trickery and TV for "bread and circuses," and you'll see how our too-easily distracted population is pointing America toward that same cliff.
So let's hope our 2020 choices aren't only rich celebrities. The way things are going, I wouldn't be shocked to see a reality show titled "POTUS: Let's Choose America's Next President!" featuring Trump, Cuban, Zuckerberg, Winfrey and God knows who else vying for the ultimate status symbol.
Imagine the excitement! With the outdated Electoral College under attack, perhaps you won't even have to get off the couch__just tweet your preference. The winner becomes president, the runner-up vice president, and one lucky viewer ambassador to France.
Never happen, you say? All I can say is, please direct me to the local U.S. Copyright Office, pronto.

My neurologist put me on 0.25 mg of xanax 3 times a day for panic attacks and 1 5mg diazepam before bed so what effects should I expect while taking this ? He also says Ihave General anxiety disorder
What to expect while taking xanax and diazepam?

Responses (1)
Xanax is a benzodiazepine as is diazepam which is the generic name for valium. Both of these drugs are indicated for anxiety/panic attacks and for relaxing the mental state, in other words they will calm you down, take away the agitation and give you a calming effect. Quite plesent really and the diazepam will aid you in falling asleep. I must add a word of caution that both of these drugs are habit forming and are for short term use only.
Thanks for the info. Not sure what short term is considered but I have been given 4 refills of the xanax 0.25 90 tabs and 1 90 day supply of the diazepam so looks like I will be on these for the rest of the year I go back to my ent who prescribed the valium
4 months is what I was told was considered short term
Thats is about the length of time they have me taking this so I guess its a wait and see how I do
The problem arises with all Benzodiazepines that they are highly additive and very hard to get off of. There adiction comes in two forms, 1. Physical form, you become dependent on them and to stop taking them you MUST taper off or they will cause you untold grief. 2. Mental addiction, they will make you believe that you can't live without them and this may be the worst as this will persist long after the physical addiction is gone. If I were you I would look up each of those drugs and thourghly research them. Benzodiazepines are very easy to become to become addicted too.

The Dutch MedTech developer, Mellon Medical, has secured €6 million to advance its patented technology for suturing with one hand.
The Switch® is a single-hand use precision-suturing instrument, enabling surgeons to suture tubular and layered structures with twice the speed of the conventional technique. On average, 30 per cent of operation time is spent on suturing and surgeons using conventional suturing techniques require many coordinated motions using both hands to place a single suture.
Mellon will initially focus its 8cm model on three vascular indications: carotid artery surgery, kidney transplant and peripheral bypass surgery.
In the Switch®, the needle is always secured in one of the two jaws. The predictable linear path followed by the straight needle causes less motion friction, reducing the likelihood of damage to the vessel wall and resulting in a high quality connection. Visit www.mellonmedical.com for a 3D animation.
However, this technology could in the future be used on a broader range of other disciplines, such as general surgery, microsurgery, urology, gynecology, coronary artery bypass surgery, and neurosurgery.
It is expected to reduce the risk of complications, for instance, reduced clamp time for many cardiovascular procedures, resulting in improved patient outcome and a reduction of costs.
The introduction of the device to the market has been set for late 2019/early 2020, following final development and the completion of the CE certification process. Mellon plans for FDA approval within two years after obtaining CE mark. The annual worldwide sutures and suturing devices market size is estimated at $3 billon by 2020.
Oskar Slotboom, partner at BGV and Supervisory, Board member of Mellon Medical commented: "Mellon has demonstrated a highly innovative suturing concept, which is based on advanced technological insights from vascular surgeons, in an area where little innovation has taken place. It fits well with our funds' focus on truly innovative products that have the potential to positively impact patient care".
Mellon has received several international innovation awards for this new invention, including one from the vascular surgeon community during last years' Charing Cross International Symposium for Vascular Surgery in London.

VIDEO: Christine Beatty goes on record in Greene case in sealed deposition
DETROIT (WXYZ) – Lawyers questioned Christine Beatty under oath for hours Friday as part of the slain stripper lawsuit. Beatty first testified back on July 28. This was day two of her testimony, with an extension of time that was granted by the court.
Attorney Norman Yatooma arrived for the deposition of Beatty weighed down with two huge briefcases, full of files.
"We're just here to find out what Ms. Beatty doesn't know, doesn't remember, or can't talk about," Yatooma sarcastically told Action News Investigator Heather Catallo.
Yatooma is suing the City of Detroit and former mayor Kwame Kilpatrick – claiming they obstructed the investigation into the murder of Tamara Greene. Greene was an exotic dancer, who was shot to death in 2003. It's been rumored that she danced at a never proven Manoogian Mansion party, where Kilpatrick's wife, Carlita, allegedly assaulted Greene.
Yatooma can't say much about Beatty's deposition because it's sealed – but he did tell Action News, Beatty is an important figure in his case.
"She was the Chief of Staff during the alleged Manoogian Mansion party period. She was the Chief of Staff during Tamara Greene's murder. She was the Chief of Staff when Tamara Greene's murder was covered up. She's the Chief – she's important to this case," said Yatooma.
Beatty's lawyer, Mayer Morganroth, told us, she's eager to be finished with this lawsuit so she can move on with her new life in Atlanta, Georgia.
"Coming in is not easy for her – she doesn't have the money to come in, frankly. And it's an ordeal," said Morganroth.
Meanwhile, earlier this week, city attorney John Schapka filed a motion – alerting the court that he will be asking the judge to dismiss this lawsuit. The reason? Schapka claims that even though discovery produced thousands of pages of testimony, more than 10,000 pages of Detroit Police and Fire source documents, along with lengthy State Police and Detroit Homicide records – Yatooma has come up with no real evidence of a cover-up or obstruction.
Kwame Kilpatrick's lawyer, Jim Thomas, says he also plans to ask the judge to throw out the lawsuit.
"You saw that the city's going to be filing theirs – we'll be filing ours as well," said Thomas.
Norman Yatooma calls the claim that has no evidence "nonsense."

This interview features her first appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson who, all-in-all, was pretty fair and even-handed, perhaps moreso than even I, and especially many other libertarians, might have been! (Of course, this was before she became enshrined in historical myth and followed by fairly dogmatic schools of thought.)
Anyway, this is a pretty satisfying glimpse into the libertarian past. Enjoy!

World Active Optical Cable Market with business strategies and analysis to 2022
Press Release • Oct 17, 2016 15:15 EDT
An active optical cable (AOC) is a cabling technology that uses optical fiber between the connectors to improve the cable's performance. There is a rise in demand for AOC as it serves as an alternative to copper cable due to its various advantages such as small bend radius for easy installment, low power consumption, and lightweight. Applications of these cables have expanded, from high-performance computers to networking and storage with the support of many protocols. In addition, AOCs rely on different protocols, such as InfiniBand, USB, and Ethernet, for data transmission. The active optical cable market was valued at $481.3 million in 2015. Furthermore, the active optical cable market is projected to generate about $3,480.7 million registering a CAGR of 32.7% from 2016 to 2022.

Many things can be said about the Filipino people. They are very pious, fun-loving and laid back. But no one can deny that Filipinos are also very creative and artistic. Filipino artists are among the best in the world, yet unknown to many other races. It is this thinking that led to the establishment of the "Kanlungan ng Sining" (Artist's Haven) at Rizal Park.
Kanlungan ng Sining is one of the less-known spots inside the popular Rizal Park. Nonetheless, it is creating much impact in the over-all arts scene in the country. One example of its influence may be seen in its attempt to reach out to young Filipino people. Patrons of [Read more…]

Kinmen is a group of islands located just off the southeastern coast of mainland China. Because of its distance from mainland Taiwan, Kinmen offers a unique cultural experience, with locals identifying strongly as Kinmenese.
137,255 (2017.12)
Kinmen is a subtropical climate. The summers are long and hot and the winters are chilly and foggy, but it is still a beautiful island with beaches, forests, and mountains to explore. It is important to be prepared for rainy season because it can get very humid.
Number of ETAs
Number of Schools with ETAs
Teaching in Kinmen is particularly special because many ETAs will spend half of their classes teaching with the assistance of a homeroom teacher instead of a local English teacher. This means that they have the freedom to choose their course content. Class sizes also tend to be smaller with only 10 - 15 students, although larger schools do exist as well. Kinmen's small size uniquely allows for a Fulbrighter to be placed at almost every elementary and middle school, creating a strong culture of English learning.
Living in Kinmen is unlike any other location. Because of the small population you can expect to be fully integrated into the community in Kinmen. Expect frequent teacher dinners and to see students all over. Being such a small island, there is always a beach in sight. At the same time, it still has all necessary modern amenities including two movie theaters, a luxury mall, Starbucks, and multiple import stores, and Xiamen, China is only a 30 min boat ride away.
Name: Carrie Chen
Hello! My name is Carrie Chen. I graduated from National Quemoy University. I have worked with Fulbright since 2015.
Advice for Incoming ETAs
Welcome to this beautiful island, Kinmen! We have beautiful beaches around the whole island. The secret of military history would take you to the past. The peaceful pace on this island and smiles on the Kinmenese faces are all the pretty scenery here.
Name: Ann
Hi all, I'm Ann Peng, one of the Kinmen coordinators. I graduated from Tamkang University with a B.A. in English Language and Culture. I have worked with Fulbright since 2015.
Advice for Incoming ETAs
Kinmen is an island rich in Taiwanese and Chinese history whose beaches, forests, and hills beg for a sense of adventure and whose smiles and laughter of its people and children ring through the air.

2009 Christmas Card
I had so much fun creating this 4x6 card! My only issue was choosing the right colors to go with all of the red and white stripes. I ordered regular 4x6 prints from Walgreens at 5 cents each (with coupon) - much cheaper than buying the 4x8 card sets with envelopes!

Website Building
I've spent the last couple weeks researching how to build websites! I found some free web-building software (Serif WebPlus SE), and then began using my stash of digital scrapbooking stuff to make my own graphics using Photoshop Elements. What fun! This website is for a non-profit care center. See my work in progress at www.linnmanor.org.

Family Reunion Scrapbook
Last September I completed the largest photobook I've done thus far. It is 61 pages, and only took me about 2 weeks to complete (that includes sorting and editing 650 photos!). The book was about our 3-day family reunion/vacation, and each member of our family was able to purchase their own copy of the book! This is what is so neat about digital scrapbooking! It's easy to share and easy to do!
New Designs
I am in the process of making a digital scrapbooking kit centered around a Christmas. My favorite holiday decorations are Poinsettias - especially the pink and white ones. The photos in the layout are from our family Christmas get-together last year (I'm a little behind on scrapping my photos). But with the cooler weather, I have been in the Christmas mood lately.

Perfect Day
I created this layout after taking some photos of my little blessings. I tend to scrapbook only the happy moments of life (and only the "good" photos). So this time I wanted to show that life isn't always full of smiles and perfect moments!

Apple's last MacWorld is coming up. Instead of a Steve-note it'll be a Phil-note. Good. The poor man deserves more exposure, irrespective of Steve's health or whether or not Steve can be bothered to attend the show.
Anyway, there are a couple of rumours out there to comment on:
Firstly, Apple is supposedly developing a Home Media Server. This is nothing new. Apple was talking about being the digital hub years ago. However, no specific product for this ever appeared. The Mac itself became the hub and it wasn't until the release of Time Capsule that Apple tried a "headless" device in this area.
I already blogged about a device like the one now being discussed about a year go. If it gets released it will use a combination of a Time Capsule-like device and Back To My Mac-style firewall circumvention to work. Note that Back To My Mac requires a MobileMe account, so expect further tie-ins there...
Secondly, the 'Large Screen iPod Touch Device'. This makes a lot of sense. All Apple's patents make it clear that both the software and the hardware of a device like the iPhone is meant to be modular. The iPod Touch is the trivial example of this. Remove the 3G radio and bingo, new device! That may seem obvious, but it isn't necessarily. Even small hardware changes can lead to large differences in software on many other platforms. Apple however frequently invests in fundamental technologies that can help it across the board.
One simple example (which I'm surprised to say isn't being widely discussed!) is exactly that of a larger screen iPod device. Suppose for a second it would be twice the size in each direction. That would make it about the size of half a piece of A4 or legal paper, with 4 times the resolution of an iPhone. Great!
Ship it with iWorks Touch, a mobile version of iWorks. Neat! Now what about other software...well we've got an app-store full of it. Except those apps are written for a much smaller screen. No problem. Remember the resolution independent user-interface? People have been wondering where that went. It is there in the development tools, but it isn't enabled for the end-user. The iPhone/Touch version of Leopard includes this too. This means that any correctly written iPhone app will run in 4x the resolution on this new, bigger device. And not by simply doubling all the pixels, resulting in ugly pixels everywhere. No, correctly scaled and beautifully drawn. No problem. And if the developer wanted to specifically support the device he could keep certain parts of the interface smaller (compared to the size of the screen) and gain more screenspace to display or manipulate data in.
Bottom line, a device like that (if it exists), if shipped with a couple of productivity apps from Apple and all of the current app-store apps would give it all the boost it would need.
My list of Apple apps that should ship with a device like this:
- iWorks: Pages, Numbers, Keynote. Cut down of course. But with ability to read and write the files produced by their desktop counterparts. And Word/Excel/Powerpoint of course.
- Remote desktop: Together with Back To My Mac this would be great.
- File-sharing support built in. Built on top of this Home Media Server concept. Should keep the amount of built-in storage needed to a minimum. 64Gb max.
Come MacWorld we might see the Home Media Server. I doubt we'll see the new tablet.
Expected updated iMacs too. Don't expect them to change much externally though.

Canadian heptathlete Brianne Theisen-Eaton retiring from track
Somehow, Brianne Theisen-Eaton remained on her feet with her competitors strewn around her at the finish line of the 800 metres at the 2016 Rio Games.
Buckled over with her hands pressed against her knees, the pride of Humboldt, Sask. waited for what seemed like an eternity for the final results to flash on the scoreboard.
Third place overall. Bronze. Not what she came for, but a victory of sorts given that she entered Day 2 of the heptathlon in sixth.
On Wednesday, Theisen-Eaton reflected on that moment as she announced her retirement at the same time as her husband Ashton Eaton, the American gold medallist in the decathlon.
"I remember thinking, 'I want to lie down so badly, but I'm so tired that I'm not going to be able to get back up," Theisen-Eaton told Postmedia Wednesday from Eugene, Ore. "I have never been so thankful to be finished something in my life.
"I felt like I never wanted to do another heptathlon again. This feeling confused me."
Not wanting to commit to a life-changing decision based on exhaustion, Theisen-Eaton waited three months before making it official.
Her track and field days are done.
"I went after what I set out to do and whether I achieved it or fell short is not the point," said Theisen-Eaton, who arrived in Rio as a favourite for gold. "The point is that I know deep down that I gave it every ounce of energy I had and that if I went back and did it all over again, I would not change a thing. I could not have done anything better.
"Isn't this the point of sport?"
Theisen-Eaton, 28, retires as the Canadian record holder in the heptathlon (outdoor) and the pentathlon (indoor). She is a two-time world championship silver medallist in the heptathlon and the reigning world indoor champion.
The University of Oregon product placed 11th at the 2012 Summer Games in London.
"I can't advance any further in the sport," she said. "I've given it all I can, and I refuse to come back and half-ass it because I love and respect this event and sport too much."
No one would ever accuse Theisen-Eaton of "half-assing" in training or competition. Seemingly born to run, she drove her mom wild as a toddler by begging to get out of the shopping cart at the grocery store — only to sprint up and down the aisles at top speed.
In Grade 9, she joined the Saskatoon Track & Field club and commuted 110 kms each way up to four nights a week through blizzards and heat waves. A couple years later, she dedicated herself to the rigours of the heptathlon, which includes the 100-metre hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200-metre dash, long jump, javelin and 800-metre run.
In university, she met her future husband in Ashton Eaton. The couple married in July 2013. Their coach Harry Marra officiated their wedding.
Eaton, also 28, is a two-time Olympic gold medallist and the world record holder in the decathlon at 9,045 points.
"I gave the most physically robust years of my life to the discovery and pursuit of my limits in this domain," Eaton wrote in a statement on the website he shares with his wife. "Did I reach them? Truthfully I'm not sure anyone really does.
"It seems like we tend to run out of time or will before we run out of potential. That makes humanity limitless then, as far as I'm concerned. And I think that's inspiring."
Originally, the Olympic power couple planned to retire after the 2017 track season. But when last November rolled around, Theisen-Eaton, for one, realized that the exhaustion she felt at the finish line in Rio had not abated.
"I gave the last four years everything I could," she said. "I put my life on hold. Track and field was the priority before everything else: my family, my friends, my marriage, my future."
She has no regrets, but wants to move on to other passions. First up is taking a year off, but she hopes to find a new calling in fighting the obesity epidemic sweeping Canada and the United States.
"To Brianne," Eaton wrote in his retirement statement. "I've never seen such a high level of strength sustained for so long. I love you.
"What now?"
Brianne Theisen-Eaton never said a word about it, but she couldn't even sprint two days before the gun sounded to start the Olympic heptathlon in Rio.
The Humboldt, Sask. native strained her quadriceps in training the week prior and had no idea if the leg would hold up through the 100-metre hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200-metre dash, long jump, javelin and 800-metre run.
"No one wants two days out from their Olympic event to be like, 'I don't know if I'm going to be able to go full speed,'" Theisen-Eaton said Wednesday upon announcing her retirement. "It just kind of mentally played into it.
"But I had a great medical team behind me who did everything they possibly could every day."
On Day 1, she stumbled to a sixth-place finish in the hurdles and crossed the line seventh in the 200 metres.
She rebounded on Day 2 and climbed back into bronze-medal position through high jump, javelin, and 800-metre run.
"It felt fine," Theisen-Eaton said of her leg. "I felt it a tiny bit in the 200 metres, but for the rest of the competition it was totally fine."

Ramsay Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
Review by Eric Tansey, CSW
If you have read any of my other reviews, you will know that I am a sucker for good stories behind good wine, and Ramsay Cabernet delivers on both ends. Winemaker and owner Kent Rasmussen started out as librarian making wine for his and his wife's personal consumption. This led to a passion, which then turned into a serious venture. With $20k to work with, Rasmussen and his wife moved to Napa, bought a small parcel of land and began planting vines in order to produce their own brand of wine. Pinot Noir in the 80's was the black sheep varietal, mostly overpowered by Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, but this did not sway Rasmussen. He knew what he was most passionate about and he followed his dream. He now produces some of the finest Pinot Noirs in California as well as Cabs and Merlots. Kent owns a few labels, of which Ramsay is the least expensive and so geared toward the average consumer. Ramsay is his wife's maiden name, and if he put his wife's name on it, you know it has to deliver! Cheers!
Taste Characteristics
The 2014 Ramsay Cabernet Sauvignon is aromatic and inviting. Aromas of dark black fruits, cocoa, pipe tobacco, and fresh homemade popcorn lift from the glass. The wine is as lively on the palate as it is on the nose. A very aggressive and yet gentle balance of big fruit, big tannin, and a big finish. Fresh ripe blackberries meld together with wood-shop, earthy qualities like cedar, tobacco, cocoa and a subtle touch of vanilla. This wine is big and robust but not to the point that the wine comes across as an "oak bomb"or a "jam fest"–just a big, well balanced Cabernet Sauvignon, with ample tannins, structured acidity, and fresh fruit. This wine is the perfect representation of fine California wine at an extraordinary price. I give this wine 91 points! Pair with Filet Mignon, Ribeye, T-bone, London Broil…are you seeing a theme here? Cheers!

Of course, the floors of such kitchen design ideas will be made of wood as well. You have the choice on what type of wood you want to use and on what type of finish to apply on it. Just make sure that it goes well with the other parts of the kitchen and not look out of place.
The color scheme makes or breaks an interior design. Rustic kitchen signature color schemes are comprised of shades of red, orange and gold. Orange color is said to be the appetite stimulant and comfort maker. The floor should be distinguished with hard wood and metallic copper shades to give it a Mediterranean feel. Wall painting must illustrate the rustic design feeling.Home owners can try orange, red, shades of gold, olive green and darkest shades of Tuscan style furniture.
If you have lots of kitchen design ideas in mind, there is probably one common thing about them - simplicity. Many people are enticed into bringing the country style theme in their kitchens because of the homey look and feel. While modern kitchens often have better functionality, nature lovers and those who love the laidback type of life, will definitely find more happiness in these types of kitchen design ideas.

If you want to keep your home comfortably cool while saving energy dollars during the warm months, here's an idea: don't add extra heat in your home. In practical terms, that means:* Use your microwave or countertop appliances for cooking chores instead of your oven or stove. Better yet, grill some burgers outdoors.* Run your dryer and dishwasher at night instead of the day. Or let your clothes and dishes air dry. Also, wash only full loads.* Keep out heat from the sun by keeping drapes, blinds and shades closed during the hottest parts of the day.* After a shower or bath, use the bathroom fan to remove heat and humidity. Better to take short showers instead of baths.* Set your thermostat as high as comfortably as possible. Each degree above 78 can save 6-7 percent off cooling costs. Also, don't try to cool faster by setting a thermostat colder than normal. It won't help and could result in added energy expense.* Install a programmable thermostat to save energy while you're away and comfortable while home.* Ceiling fans will create cool breeze and keep air circulating in the home and, the Department of Energy says, will allow you to raise the thermostat setting about 4 degrees without reducing comfort.* Replacing an aging central air conditioning with a new Energy Star qualified model can reduce cooling costs by 20 percent.

Music Producer, Audio Engineer,DJ
The name Veytik is the Jewish/Yiddish word for 'Pain'.
Sonically, it is a dark, mysterious sound with triumphant bass lines, haunting melodies/chord progressions and intimate drums that speaks to a certain audience from his very essence. Essentially, Veytik grew into the music he creates, it comes from a real source that is what shaped him into what he is from life's experiences.
His pain is a double-edged sword that he wields to create from.
The mask is spawned originally from a favorite musical of his, the Phantom of the Opera. Not the same one but similar. Similar he can relate to the character that was the phantom himself. And in his own concept, the mask is something that we all hide behind. But to show people that "mask" is the goal.
The mask that protects us from the 'social contract' of society saying what is & is not acceptable. People like Veytik are deemed different. We live in a society where medication, therapy & mental/physical disorders are "different". I wear this to represent this and to stand for anyone who has any condition that they may or may not be ashamed of that inhibits them to grow.
And through the music & image, helping destroy these barriers by making them a topic in music besides just love songs.

The worldbuilding of my favourite game series, PikminPosted: August 6, 2013 Filed under: Philosophy, Uncategorized | Tags: heidi's life, sci-fi/fantasy genre, video games, worldbuilding 5 Comments
I've been a little preoccupied lately. Pikmin 3 came out for the Wii U video game system a few days ago, after about a decade of development, and you can bet I was on that like a raccoon on a ham sandwich.
Pikmin is a series I enjoy as a video game enthusiast, but also as a writer. The Pikmin games focus on an Earth-like planet with tiny, unusual wildlife. The titular characters are these little guys, the various subspecies of Pikmin:
They're sort of like an ant colony: cooperative and eager to serve a leader. When equally tiny alien spacemen land on the planet, they often find that they need the Pikmin's help to survive in the harsh ecosystem. Game play is all about strategy and time management. You direct Pikmin to build bridges, collect items and fight off predatory animals. That last one can be very challenging. Pikmin are tenacious fighters but they're at the bottom of their world's food chain. Everything eats Pikmin.
I think what I love most about Pikmin games is the sense of genuine wonder. Fantasy fans definitely marvel at the dragons and beasts they see, but the characters actually facing those creatures don't find it marvellous. They're used to their world's beasts — either that or the beast is barely even the point. The character is simply grimacing and pulling a sword, wondering how they'll get past this obstacle. Fantasy can be weirdly jaded toward its own amazing details. I like fantasy video games with creatures and magic, but the creatures are often just so many units to be slaughtered.
Whereas in Pikmin's science fiction setting, there are people in space suits noticing every animal and commenting on it. Each surprise is noted and reacted to. Even common Earth plants look new when you're seeing them from the characters' inch-tall perspective. The staple character of the series, Captain Olimar, is a deliveryman with a deep personal love of biology: he opines at length on the plants and animals he's discovering. Sometimes he's unsure whether he'll live to see another day but he's still eagerly documenting an insect he just discovered. The wildlife often get Latin genus names, and commentary how they evolved their particular traits.
There's even a treasure hunt factor when the space explorers mention their own culture. Since the explorers are focusing their attention on the Pikmin planet, they're not exactly turning to the player and explaining their homeworld. They reveal themselves in offhand tidbits. Captain Olimar stated in the first Pikmin game that oxygen is "poisonous" to his species, and I've been trying to figure out his physiology ever since. If he doesn't breathe oxygen, what does he breathe? I'd love to know. Pikmin 3 stated that Olimar's race is vegetarian, and I the writer thought this was enormously exciting information. (Contradictory with previous information, too. The intrigue thickens!) I'm as curious about the space explorers as they are about the Pikmin world — the world we're exploring together.
I believe that video games are a genuine artistic media. They can create worlds for us to walk around in, and tell stories for us to laugh and cry over. They can pose weighty questions, or just show us something cool we've never seen. Pikmin is a great example of what I mean. I'm not just playing some time-wasting game until dawn: I'm rolling around in everything I love about speculative fiction.

To celebrate the careers of the top ponies in the show ring since HOYS introduced the supreme pony of the year title in 2003, we look back through the H&H picture archives at HOYS supreme ponies of the year, including this year's winner
Congratulations to Olivia Brightmore, who won the 2017 supreme pony of the year title at Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) with Thistledown Van-Der-Vaart, who is owned by Lucy Richardson and was led by Sian Linney.
About HOYS supreme pony of the year
The supreme pony of the year was first crowned at HOYS in 2003. Until then the top ponies of the show went forward to the supreme horse of the year championship.
In 2014 the number of ponies forward for the supreme increased as all the mountain and moorland (M&M) champions became eligible (ridden pony, working hunter pony and mini pony), rather than only the M&M supreme pony of the year champion, as in previous years.
M&Ms have taken the supreme pony title on five occasions so far, starting with Welsh Section A Penwayn Ryan in 2003. He was ridden by Laura Collett, who has since gone on to become an successful four-star event rider.

Thursday Panel: How Can Your Organization Embrace Social Media?
Gloria Pan and Suzanne Turner over at Turner Strategies kindly invited EDF to join another conversation about the big picture of changing communications. Please join us Thursday at noon, if you're here in DC. [Update: Video from the session is posted.]
This is a great chance for me to use the Way Back Machine and pull out some favorite slides — I was on a similar panel in 2008 at my first NTEN conference, and shared lessons from EDF's earliest social media forays.
Here's how I showed some of EDF staff's early desire to blog:
And our first attempts to edit and approve blog posts:
Two and a half years was a long time ago! We've got many happy stories to share now. Here's how Gloria describes the session:
For advocacy/nonprof orgs, one of the toughest barriers to effective use of social media is how to get key decision makers and other internal stakeholders on board because many are used to a world when all communications was taken care of by the comms department. There's going to be a discussion about this very problem on Aug. 5 at noon at the Center for Nonprofit Advancement, organized by Turner Strategies.
Among other things,
- The chief strategist from the American Association of University Women will talk about resource distribution and staff management from the executive leadership perspective;
- Environmental Defense Fund [<– That's me and my boss, Dave!] will look at training and other processes to educate and win over staff and other stakeholders;
- and the Service Employees Union International will talk about the necessity of making the social media case over and over again, especially when there's been a major change in leadership.
This is an important conversation for any communications/social media person still struggling with how to get buy-in to get your work done. Please join us.

What is Breach of Contract?
A contract is an agreement offered by one party and accepted by another. Contracts are almost always written documents in California, but it is not impossible to have an entirely oral contract. When a party does not fulfill its duties under a contract, the contract is said to be breached. Individuals and businesses may choose not to fulfill their contracts, but sometimes it might simply be unrealistic to do so. What happens after a breach of contract depends on the circumstances. The party that breached the contract may be ordered to pay for the other's loss, and this sometimes makes it necessary to bring the matter to court.
What If Someone Fails to Honor Their End of the Contract in Culver City
A breach of contract in Culver City normally entitles the party who fulfilled its end to recover monetary damages from the party that did not. The exact amount of these damage awards, however, is usually a subject of contention in court. If this disagreement cannot be resolved, the matter may be taken to court. Courts usually require you to plead the amount of damages you suffered in the initial complaint.
What If I Can't Fulfill a Contract?
If a monetary award will not resolve the issue, courts in Culver City, California may choose to grant an injunction, which is an order for the other party to do what it had agreed. Once your concerns are determined, a court will require you to properly voice them in court so that it may grant a suitable remedy. Wrong doing is not always present when a contract is breached. Courts therefore consider more than simply whether a breach of contract truly occurred. In California law, how and why the contract duties went unfulfilled are also factors.

I cannot remember the last time Senator Steve Daines held a town hall.
If I could, I would have a running clock of "It's been ____ Days Since Steve Daines Held a Town Hall." But I can't even remember the last time Daines faced his constituents so that joke goes in the trash.
I know he's held those tele-town halls. But there is something about looking people in the eye and seeing their passion, their disagreement, or heck even their agreement with you. And Daines seems to be avoiding that.
Daines was able to secure one more week in Washington but it looks like the Senate will end up sending the Senators home to see their constituents.
Senator Daines has one simple question to answer, and we—his constituents—have one simple ask: Will you hold a town hall?
I've called Daines' office and repeatedly asked this question. I've been met with platitudes and non-answers.
I do know he travels to all 56 counties though! Good for you Senator Daines. But it begs the question: if a Senator travels to your county, and no one is invited to see it, was he really there?
Senator Daines will have the whole month of August to drive around the state. Hopefully he stops in and actually holds a public meeting. I know I am willing to travel wherever and whenever to find out just what the heck he's been up to—but I am not going to hold my breath.
If any of you fine readers find out where Senator Daines is going to be please shoot me a tip. I am about to start putting his face on milk cartons.
Feel free to leave the question you'd like to ask Senator Daines in the comments. I like to think with all the time he has not meeting with Montanans he spends perusing the blogosphere.

Event Reviews: ITU Workshop Making Media Accessible to All and 16th Annual Accessing Higher Ground Conference
Accessible Media Inc. (AMI) had the opportunity to participate and present at two significant events held recently, centering on media accessibility, the ITU Workshop in Geneva and the 16th Annual Accessing Higher Ground Conference in the United States.
The ITU Workshop held in Geneva, Switzerland was the culmination of work completed by the ITU Focus Group on Audiovisual Media Accessibility (FGAVA). "The main objective of this Focus Group was to address the need to make audiovisual media accessible for persons with disabilities."
Being led by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), the group brought together subject matter experts globally to discuss, formulate and outline potential standards that could serve the needs of persons with disabilities by providing accessible audiovisual communications. It is anticipated that the work completed by this group will foster the ongoing development and establishment of the discipline of media accessibility. This will then lead to the standardization of communications technologies and in turn, accessibility by the widest possible audience. To that end, AMI presented its Canadian broadcasting industry adopted work related to Described Video Best Practices with the intent of showcasing how they may be relevant in the development of standards globally related to Described Video (audio description).
Similarly, at the 16th Annual Accessing Higher Ground Conference on Accessible Media, Web and Technology 2013 (Westminster, United States), we once again presented the Described Video Best Practices to an audience focused more towards educational accessibility. Hosted by the Association on Higher Education and Disability each year in Colorado, this conference is well attended and can be of benefit to those in any discipline focused on the provision of media accessibility. The conference includes multiple sessions focused on disability technology and accessibility and also provides a virtual conference stream for those unable to attend in person. AMI has presented at this event over the last three years and will continue to use this conference as a valuable resource and annual industry connection point.
Clearly, the need for provision of media accessibility in many forms is becoming more evident as standards are established and the recognition of previously excluded audiences to content takes place. Being an organization focused on making accessible media for all Canadians, we feel that participation in events such as these is important to ensure the continued recognition of the need. Furthermore, we work to contribute any knowledge and resources developed to further the progression of the discipline.

As luck would have it, I live 45 minutes from the "American Riviera", otherwise known as Santa Barbara, California. The climate is sunny and Mediterranean (you know, kind of like the South of France). Everywhere you look there is beautiful architecture with stark white stucco walls and orange terra cotta roof tiles, lush landscaping, and a huge blue ocean in the background.
Cannes, Santa Barbara...Tomato, tomahto.
This is one of my favorite buildings in town, the Courthouse. Isn't she a beaut?
The best part is the detailing throughout the building. The tile-work is so beautiful, and the paintings in the Mural Room were just recently restored. The newly revived colors are absolutely stunning.
Look at those cute little jailbirds!
Note the different colored beams on the ceiling.
The cherry on top of the Courthouse Sundae, is the clock tower. Once you get to the top, there is a 360 degree view of the whole city. It really is spectacular. It closes at 4:45 every evening, so unfortunately, access is barred before sunset...But wouldn't that be a romantic way to impress a date?
Air was a little hazy, but the view was still definitely worth the stair-climb, I'd say!
Bye, Courthouse! You've been a doll.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't insanely excited that our next stop was South Coast Deli for lunch. I make a requisite visit every time I'm in the area, and I crave the South Coast Turkey Sandwich at least once a week. We entered the establishment with stomachs rumbling and ordered one of everything!
No, we didn't. But what a truly glorious idea.
Not aesthetically spectacular in any way, but the menu is out of this world! This venue is located at 1436 Chapala St, Santa Barbara, CA. Hours are Monday through Friday 7-4 and Saturday 11-4.
As you can see, prices are extremely reasonable, and portions are huge.
We ordered the South Coast Veggie and South Coast Turkey Toasted Sammies and the Romaine and Gorgonzola Salad. Not a crumb was left in our wake.
After lunch, we strolled around the downtown area for a bit of window shopping. Having already determined that today would be a day of indulgence, we were also on a mission to find something sweet to balance out the savory.
We stumbled across Andersen's Bakery, which it turns out, is the meeting place for Marzipan Addicts Anonymous. Rach became an honorary member. I watched the entire brutal initiation process as I licked chocolate off my hands.
Oof! That Mr.Andersen, he knows what he's doing.
We walked back to the car, sunburned and satisfied.
Though it was a little sad to be leaving, we couldn't be sullen for long with vistas like these on the drive home.
I love you, California.

Man killed after being ejected from vehicle
Man killed after being ejected from vehicle
ALBIA, Iowa —
A Des Moines man was killed early Saturday after he lost control of his vehicle and struck a tree.
An Iowa State Patrol crash report says 23-year-old Christopher Alexander was driving a Chrysler van westbound on Highway 34, west of Albia, around 2:30 a.m. when he failed to navigate a small curve and crossed over to the eastbound lane.
The report says Alexander overcorrected and lost control of the vehicle. The van entered the north ditch, vaulted over a driveway and came to rest on its top after hitting a tree.
Officials said Alexander was ejected from the vehicle and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Two 16-year-old passengers, both of Knoxville, were taken to the Monroe County Hospital. Their conditions have not been released.

DALLAS - Pittsburgh's Troy Polamalu and Green Bay's Charles Woodson see a different game and have the nerve to act on what they see.
Not only do their brains and boldness make them valuable players, but that combination also won the Associated Press Defensive Player of the Year award for Woodson in 2009 and for Polamalu in 2010.
Each has the cunning, the experience and athletic gifts to emerge as the most valuable player in Super Bowl XLV on Sunday. Conversely, each could be the goat.
"They take educated guesses, and they're usually right," Steelers offensive coordinator Bruce Arians said. "(Woodson) is like Troy. You've got to find him before the ball's snapped. You've got to account for them."
Two years ago, when Todd Haley was the Arizona Cardinals' offensive coordinator, he and quarterback Kurt Warner watched film together before Super Bowl XLIII and found themselves fixated on the man with the No. 43 jersey and the hair flowing from beneath his helmet.
"For two weeks we called Polamalu the wild card because he's a very unpredictable player," Haley said in 2009. "You just don't know what he's going to do. That's what scared Kurt and me. There are times he comes out of the scheme and just uses his ability or instincts to make plays."
How often is Polamalu right?
"Probably about 85 percent of the time," said Steelers linebacker James Farrior. "You take all of the good with a few bad. You should know where he is at all times, but I don't even know if he knows where he's going to be."
Joe Whitt, the Packers' second-year cornerbacks coach, was unable to fathom Woodson's wavelength until they had a few deep conversations.
"He taught me this. He said, 'Joe, a lot of guys see it but they don't believe it on game day,' " Whitt said. "It's the same with Troy.
"When Troy sees something, when he sees a formation and a motion, he believes it and goes and gets it. A lot of guys won't pull the trigger. That's the difference."
The tape-watching habits of Woodson and Polamalu are the stuff of legend. By kickoff, they are as prepared as a player could be.
Last year, Woodson intercepted nine passes, at least half by showing up in places or breaking on passes that left observers wondering what just happened.
Woodson often chalked it up to "instincts."
As amorphous as that word might be, the dozen or so coaches and players interviewed for this story pointed to that very element almost universally.
"The game is real slow for them," said Ben McAdoo, who coaches the Packers' tight ends. "I don't think the quarterback can be surprised by any atypical reaction that he gets. Expect the unexpected."
Even after the '09 season, in which Woodson made countless game-changing plays, he was crestfallen when the Packers blew a wild-card game in Arizona and failed again in his quest for the Super Bowl.
In the offseason, Woodson and his coach had another heart-to-heart in which Whitt asked him to trust what he had to say.
Green Bay had allowed a whopping 34 touchdown passes in 17 games, and the red-zone defense was terrible. Whitt asked Woodson to freelance less often than he had.
Woodson was asked to play closer to the line, which in turn enabled him to re-route his man and permit more definite reads behind him. Woodson's interception total slipped to two, but Whitt says his unselfishness played a pivotal role in why the Packers trimmed their yield of touchdown passes to 18 in 19 games.
Earlier this week, Polamalu was telling one side of his story when he said to a group of reporters, "I don't have any more freedom than anybody else has in the defense."
Based on the explanation of Steelers defensive backs coach Ray Horton – a former star at the University of Washington and Mount Tahoma High – the strong safety has an assignment on every play. However, neither defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau nor Horton would ever clamp down and prevent Polamalu from taking instinct-driven chances.
"Dick gives him the freedom to line up anywhere he wants, just be where you're supposed to be when the ball's snapped," one Steelers coach said. "He will be at the line of scrimmage, and right before the ball is snapped he will drop and play Cover 2."
When Polamalu entered the league in 2003, he ran 40 yards in 4.49 seconds. The 207-pound Polamalu probably isn't that fast now, but everyone has seen how rapidly he moves from point A to point B when the scent is strong.
"I've seen him leave the half-field safety spot and try to cut something in the middle of the field," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. "He's aggressive that way. I expect him to be their pressure player this week, too."
When the teams met late last season, Polamalu was out with a knee injury; the Packers gained 436 yards and scored 36 points. Now they must deal with Polamalu.
"That defense with him in there is 1,000 times better," said Jones. "A 1,000 times better."
The same surely would ring true for the Green Bay defense with and without Woodson.
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Green Bay Packers, 3:30 p.m. Sunday, Ch. 13
