Some types of HPV cause common warts of the hands or feet. Infections of the hands and feet are usually not transmitted through sexual activity. Several types of HPV cause genital warts on the penis, vagina, and rectum. Those with HIV can get worse sores in the rectum and cervical areas. HPV can also cause problems in the mouth or on the tongue or lips. Other types of HPV can cause abnormal cell growth known as dysplasia. Dysplasia can develop into various cancers in men and women.
A Pap test (or smear) is used to check a woman's cervix. It can also be used to check the anus of men and women. A swab of the region is smeared on a glass slide or mixed into liquid and examined under a microscope. The cells are examined for abnormalities that may indicate abnormal cell changes, such as dysplasia or cervical cancer.
In 2009 the FDA approved two tests that use the sample collected by a Pap test. These tests look for types of HPV that are linked to health problems.
Dysplasia can be detected by Pap smears.
Some researchers believe that anal and cervical smears should be checked each year for people with elevated risk:
However, other researchers think that careful physical examination can detect as many cases of anal cancer as anal Pap testing.
Genital warts can appear anywhere from a few weeks to a few months after you are exposed to HPV. The warts might look like small bumps. Sometimes they are fleshy and look like small cauliflowers. They can get bigger over time.
Your health care provider can usually tell if you have genital warts by looking at them. Sometimes a tool called an anoscope is used to look at the anal area. If necessary, a sample of the suspected wart will be cut off and examined under a microscope. This is called a biopsy.
Genital warts are not caused by the same HPV that causes cancer. However, if you have warts, you may have also been exposed to other types of HPV that could cause cancer.
There is no easy way to tell if someone is infected with an HPV. People who don't have any signs or symptoms of HPV infection can transmit the infection.
Condoms do not totally prevent transmission of HPV. HPV can be transmitted by direct contact with infected areas that aren't covered by a condom.
Men and women with HIV who are sexually active may want to have a regular Pap smear, anal and/or vaginal, to check for abnormal cells or early signs of warts. A positive result can be followed up to see if treatment is needed.
Two vaccines have been approved for use by men and women ages 9 to 26. The vaccine is given as a series of three injections over 6 months. They work best in people who have not yet been sexually active. They have not been tested in or approved for people already infected with HPV. For more information on HPV vaccination, see www.immunize.org/vis/hpv.pdf. In 2011, the US Centers for Disease Control recommended that all boys be vaccinated against HPV at the age of 11 years.
There is no direct treatment for HPV infection. Some people "clear" an HPV infection (are "cured") on their own. They can be infected with HPV again. Dysplasias and warts can be removed. There are several ways to do this:
Other, less common treatments for warts include the drugs 5-FU (5-fluorouracil) and Interferon-alpha. A new drug, imiquimod (Aldara), has been approved for treatment of genital warts. Cidofovir (Vistide), originally developed to fight cytomegalovirus (CMV), might also help fight HPV.
HPV infection can last for a long time, especially in people who are HIV-positive. A 2012 study found that a high proportion of cases of anal cancer are found among HIV-positive men. Dysplasia and warts can return. They should be treated as soon as they are found to reduce the chances of the problem spreading or returning.
Human papilloma virus (HPV) is very common. Some types of HPV cause warts or abnormal cell growth (dysplasia) in the genital area in or near the anus or cervix. This abnormal cell growth can result in cervical or anal cancer. Genital HPV infections are transmitted through sexual activity.
HPV infection can last a long time, especially in people with HIV. Two vaccines have been approved for use by men and women ages 9 to 26.
A Pap smear can detect abnormal cell growth in the cervix. It can also be used to check the anus of men and women. Although Pap smears may be the best way to detect early cervical cancer, careful physical examination may be the best way to detect anal cancers.
The signs of HPV infection -- warts or dysplasia -- should be treated as soon as they show up. Otherwise, the problem could spread and be more likely to return after treatment.

Today sees the end of the consultation period on the government's White Paper on communications. Now it's down to the Trade and Industry, and Culture, Media and Sport departments to mull over the replies they've had. But the end result is in a way inevitable – a replacement for telco watchdog Oftel.
Today also sees Oftel issuing its latest quarterly report on consumer use of telecommunications. It found only 30 percent of families in the UK are connected to the internet, compared to 41.5 percent in the US.
Oftel has been getting tougher on BT and other telcos recently, probably in a last-ditch attempt to save face, and therefore key staff, in the run up to the changeover to Ofcom. Ofcom, or something that sounds very much like that, will most likely be the government's solution to the proliferation of different information media that it thinks need to be regulated.
"At the earliest it'll be 2002 or 2003 for Ofcom to come into being," said a spokesperson for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. That's pretty emphatic – Oftel's days are numbered no matter what the consultation replies are like.
Oftel's quarterly consumer survey outlines the current trends in internet, mobile and fixed phone use in the UK during November 2000.
The report found that 30 percent of homes in the UK are now connected up to the internet. Users spent an average of 7 hours online per week, but the watchdog admitted that this figure is inflated by a small number of heavy users.

Raco Rat & Mouse Bait killer is a deadly indoors adn outdoors rodenticide. This bait is a high grade grain loaded with proven attractants and strong difenacoum poison that mice and rats love.
Grain bait is whats most popularin the professional service market used in most situations. As its loose its very simple to use by pouring the required amount into the bait tray or bait station and placing wherever signs of rodent activity is present.
How to Use
In the interest of protecting our wildlife, the law surrounding the use of rodenticides has changed. You must now have certification to buy rodenticide supplied in anything other than specifically manufactured amateur use quantity packs. This includes block, paste sachets and grain in sachets. No loose grain can now be sold and no tub size larger than 1.5 kilos.
Therefore if you wish to purchase Rodent poison in any other quantities we must by Law be provided with a CRRU Professional use certificate before we can dispatch the product. You can email us at firstname.lastname@example.com with a copy of your certification.
For the same strength professional-grade products that fall within the specified amateur use please see other products in our shop.
If you do not have a certificate, but believe you are a certified user please fill out For certified users, or instead For farm assurance schemes if you are a member of a CRRU Aligned Farm Assurance Scheme, and email us as stated above.
You may do this before or after you purchase, but please be aware that we cannot by law dispatch your order until we are in receipt of your certification.
Should you wish to take an online course there are recognised course available including the following http://lodi-farmsolutions.com. A course is taken followed by an exam. Once complete, this certificate will enable the sale of larger tub sizes upon submission of the certificate whci we will hold on file for any future sales
For more information, please see the Official CRRU UK code of best practice or call us on 01626 369337 to discuss this further.

Most Web applications built for the Internet or corporate intranets and extranets require a database for data storage and retrieval. Microsoft SQL Server is a fantastic database server for Web-based applications. However, IIS administrators might need an introduction to data access as it relates to pages that IIS serves.
Let's look at how to configure a Data Source Name (DSN) and use it with ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) to access a database from an Active Server Pages (ASP) file. To execute the tools, tips, code, and tricks that we show you, you need access to SQL Server 2000 or SQL Server 7.0 and to an IIS 5.0 or IIS 4.0 Web server. (We used SQL Server 2000 and IIS 5.0.)
Using ADO to Access SQL Server Data Dynamically
ADO is a powerful and easy-to-use object model that software developers can use to access data. ADO is the preferred data access interface for using IIS and ASP to develop Web-based applications.
You can use ADO to access many sources of data, not just SQL Server. Microsoft provides ADO as an interface layer to OLE DB and designed ADO to be sufficiently generic to accommodate any OLE DB provider—SQL Server, Microsoft Exchange Server, Active Directory (AD), or another platform entirely. Data providers are components that represent these diverse data sources (e.g., SQL Server databases, indexed sequential files, spreadsheets, document stores, mail files). Providers use a common abstraction called a rowset to expose data uniformly. ADO is powerful and flexible because it can connect to any of these data providers and still expose the same programming model, regardless of the specific features of any given provider.
Creating a DSN
Developers most commonly use ADO with a DSN in ASP files. A DSN is the logical name that ODBC uses to refer to the required database information. IIS uses a DSN to connect to an ODBC data source, such as the PUBS SQL Server database. You must create a DSN on your IIS Web server machine that the ASP file we provide (GetTitles.asp) can use to access data from the PUBS database on your SQL Server machine (which will most likely be on a different machine).
To create a DSN that connects to your SQL Server PUBS database, in Windows NT, access the Control Panel ODBC Data Sources applet; in Windows 2000, access the Control Panel Administrative Tools applet, then double-click Data Sources (odbc). You're going to create a system DSN, including the services (e.g., IIS) running as a part of the OS, that will be available to all users on the machine.
On the ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog box, click the System DSN tab, which Figure 1 shows, then click Add. To create a new data source, you must first identify the type of data to which you want to connect. In this case, it's SQL Server, so scroll to the bottom of the driver list and select that option, as Figure 2 shows. Click Finish to proceed with the New Data Source to SQL Server Wizard.
Now, name your DSN pubs. (Naming your DSN after the SQL Server database it's attaching to alleviates confusion on IIS machines that have numerous DSNs with connectivity to numerous SQL Server machines.) Next, add a description of the data source. We chose the name System DSN for the PUBS database, as Figure 3 shows. Finally, chose the name of the SQL Server that you're attaching to. (You might have to type its name.) Click Next.
Now, you choose the authentication credentials for the system DSN that you're creating. The default choice, With Windows NT authentication using the network login ID, uses the credentials of the currently authenticated user. For this example, let's select the With SQL Server authentication using a login ID and password entered by the user option, then type a valid SQL Server login ID and password that have sufficient privileges to read from the PUBS database, as Figure 4, page 11, shows. For this example, we used the all-powerful sa account for the system DSN to authenticate with.
Click Next. Select pubs from the Change the default database to drop-down list, as Figure 5 shows. (Notice that you already have connectivity to the SQL Server database because the wizard has listed all the databases on the SQL Server you've attached to.) Leave the rest of the default choices, then click Next twice. A summary page like the one Figure 6 shows will appear. Click Test Data Source to test connectivity to the SQL Server database.
Using Your System DSN with ASP
You've successfully created a system DSN that you can use in ASP files. Now, download GetTitles.asp and its .inc file, adovbs.inc, from the Code Library on the IIS Administrator Web site. Create a folder called IISAdministrator under \inetpub\wwwroot, and place GetTitles.asp and adovbs.inc in the folder. Because ASP dynamically generates GetTitles.asp, IIS needs to process it and render it to the connecting browser.
You can use ADO with the VBScript language inside HTML with ASP scripting. For VBScript code to work in an HTML page or in ASP scripting, you must insert the code within a pair of HTML tags or under a scripting section. A scripting section begins with the <% notation and ends with the %> notation. Place the VBScript code between these tags.
VBScript can't load ADO constants from the ADO type library; therefore, unless you include the ADO constants declaration file in VBScript code, you must specify the literal values of ADO constants. Adovbs.inc, which Listing 1 shows, contains all the ADO constant definitions. To use ADO objects in VBScript, you must first include adovbs.inc in your script, then use the CreateObject method to create ADO objects. (Adovbs.inc resides in the \program files\common files\system\ado folder on your server, but you can also download it from the Code Library on the IIS Administrator Web site.)
After you've included adovbs.vbs, you can use ADO to retrieve records from the SQL Server database and persist them into a recordset. In GetTitles.asp in Listing 2, you first instantiate an ADO connection object, which callout A in Listing 2 shows, then open the connection with the DSN that you created earlier. By default, the IUSR account doesn't have permission to access the SQL Server database. Therefore, you have to pass in the User ID (UID) and password in the open string. If you want to use only the DSN with no UID and password in the open string, you need to grant each account access in SQL Server to the PUBS database.
Now, look closely at the SQLQuery string, which callout B in Listing 2 shows, that we built in five statements. When you've defined the SELECT statement, retrieving a record set from SQL Server to use in GetTitles.asp is as simple as using the Execute method on the ADO Connection object.
Next, you must build an HTML table and display the field headers, then begin the iteration of the record set. The do while not loop at callout C in Listing 2 loops through the record set until no more records exist, then places the Title, Author's First Name, Author's Last Name, and Price records into the HTML table. Also, notice at callout D in Listing 2 the syntax and method by which you display the data in the HTML table. RSTitleList("title") is the Title field in the record set. To place this value in the table, you use the <%= variable %> notation to place the value of the variable into the HTML table. Therefore, placing <%= RSTitleList("title") %> between the <TD> </TD> tags places the title in the cell of the HTML table. Figure 7 shows the output from GetTitles.asp.
Just the Tip of the Iceberg
This article has demonstrated how to use ADO with a DSN to use SQL Server data in your ASP files. Keep in mind that we discussed and used only a small part of the feature-rich functionality of ADO. In future articles, we'll show you how IIS can leverage ADO to access other data sources, such as Exchange Server and AD. In addition, we'll show you how to use ADO without a DSN and explain why sometimes that option is better.
Tip: Click Client Configuration, and make sure that your DSN is using TCP/IP as the network library. TCP/IP provides a reliable and fast access to SQL Server.
Note: Using an administrator account in the open string is bad practice because someone could read the source code and gain access to the SQL Server machine. Instead, use an account that can only access the necessary tables and stored procedures in the specific database (in this case, PUBS).

QuoteAttaining a 40 percent efficient concentrating solar cell means having another technology pathway for producing cost-effective solar electricity. Almost all of today's solar cell modules do not concentrate sunlight but use only what the sun produces naturally, what researchers call "one sun insolation," which achieves an efficiency of 12 to 18 percent. However, by using an optical concentrator, sunlight intensity can be increased, squeezing more electricity out of a single solar cell.
The 40.7 percent cell was developed using a unique structure called a multi-junction solar cell. This type of cell achieves a higher efficiency by capturing more of the solar spectrum. In a multi-junction cell, individual cells are made of layers, where each layer captures part of the sunlight passing through the cell. This allows the cell to get more energy from the sun's light.

For weeks here in the New York City area folks have asked me, what is Bill Thompson doing?
Is he a candidate for NYC mayor?
Does he really want this or is he just going through the motions?
Where is Thompson's passion?
Well, if Thompson's personality was not so low-key, he might respond with the slogan line of that Kia Sorrento TV commerical: "How you like me now."
It should come as no surprise. The top NYPD official that ran Stop and Frisk supports the high controversial police tactic as an effective law enforcement tool.
Just-retired Chief of Department Joseph Esposito did make a convincing case while testifying recently.
To listen to Esposito, he sounded reasonable, pointing to historic drops in crime in New York. Almost every word out of his mouth was Crime prevention. How much crime the NYPD had avoided due to stop and frisk.
Here in the Federal Courtroom of Judge Shira Scheindlin, week number three has been no better than the first two for the NYPD. One has to wonder out loud, what is the strategy for the nation's best police force. Something has to give for the City of NY.
Case in point.
I will always remember my friend Ed Koch. He made all of us proud to be a New Yorker.
The fact of the matter is they don't make politicians like Koch anymore. Koch was not a phony. You knew exactly where you stood with him. Over my 30-year relationship with the mayor, he was the same person in private as he was in public.
Every week for many, many years I interviewed Koch on Television. I saw him at his best, and when his health started failing over the years, but Koch would always bounce back.
On Wednesday we did a segment on Richard French Live titled 'Guns in America: Does America have a Problem?' Tragically, neither any of the guests, nor myself realized just how timely the segment would be. A day and half later Adam Lanza blasted his way into the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, using a high-powered rifle to kill 20 children and six adults, including the principal who tried to stop him.
If you're like most Americans, you're inundated with the obligations of day-to-day life. You have probably heard only in passing, the dire warning on your local TV newscast, "Washington gets closer to going over Fiscal Cliff." Sadly, such government paralysis has become routine, Washington is so polarized that less than a month after the Presidential Election, it seems elected officials are in the same situation of getting nothing done.
Have you noticed yet that just about every political decision from Washington these days comes down to the very end, scaring the American People about repercussions? Will unemployment benefits run out for those barely surviving? Are cuts to Medicare looming for seniors? Will you soon lose the Mortgage Interest deduction on your taxes?

I've been trying to finish my thesis on blablablablabla (something VERY interesting and important that will expand the knowledge of the whole universe as soon as I've submitted it, I'm sure…) and at the same time I've also been neglecting my duties as a contemporary jewellery blogger. I know and I apologize but some things need to get done otherwise some other things may never get done.
Is that clear? Crystal? Great.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that right now, right this minute, I should be writing the last part of the analysis part of my thesis part. Instead, I'm feeling guilty for not having the time to upload some other interviews I've been waiting to show you and at the same time I'm surfing online for blue contemporary goodness that reminds me of the big blue sea that lies just 10′ from my house, right behind that hill over there and wouldn't it be great if I could go for a swim right now?
Well, what I'm really trying to say is that I cannot concentrate on my thesis and it's all contemporary jewellery's fault.
There, I said it.

- "After all, I've seen the truth. That's the beauty and the horror of the animus. A device that allows us to enter and experience the lives of our ancestors. It holds the power to change everything. To show his history the way really happened. Up until it's creation, to the victor went the spoils. Went the truth."
- ―William Miles
Ah, the Animus. One moment I love you, the next I hate you. The science-fiction bits of the Assassin's Creed series have been a bit of a controversial topic for some people, and one prevalent question arises: would Assassin's Creed be better off without the Animus? Is it an amazing framing device? Or an immersion breaker? Well, I think it's a bit of both.
Tying It All Together
| He who increaseth knowledge, increaseth sorrow.
This article contains spoilers, meaning it has information and facts concerning recent or upcoming releases from the Assassin's Creed series. If you do not want to know about these events, it is recommended to read on with caution, or not at all.
Before I go any further, I should say right away that the Animus, the device that allows people to relive the lives of their ancestors, is not necessary to the plot. It could however, be seen as a good thing, in certain aspects. For one, as a framing device, it does explain a lot of the segregation between gameplay and plot. Of course Altair didn't murder all those beggars; it's just a simulation, right? This is a great way of explaining the player's actions as non-canon, and this goes along with the premise; you're just taking a glimpse at what really happened, and trying your best to relive it as closely as possible to how it really happened.
This does, as many people point out, tie the entire series together nicely. The science-ficion segments of the series haven't always been the high point of the experience, I admit, but the twist ending of Assassin's Creed II still has my mind reeling. The very idea that a precursor race would leave behind a pre-recorded message, only to use Ezio as a conduit, knowing he would find it, and knowing Desmond would see it, is admittedly, kind of awesome. It was one of the cooler "WTF" moments I've had in gaming, and it's kind of cool that Desmond and I both said it in unison after viewing that final scene.
Another thing I liked about the utilisation of the Animus was, shockingly, playing as Desmond. I didn't really care for him as character (save of course, for his dulcet tones), but I did enjoy seeing the Bleeding Effect in action. Specifically, I enjoyed seeing Desmond evolve from a nobody bartender to an OP assassin. Seeing those moves I learned in his ancestor's memories translate to the present assassin was a fun experience, especially in the third game. Seeing Connor's moves in action, but having Desmond perform them, makes the premise come to life, and that's a rare feeling I wish more games could pull off.
Tearing It Apart
- "I even played the DS games for fucks sake, and I don't know what's going on!"
- ―Matt of Two Best Friends Play
Long ago, when I first purchased the original Assassin's Creed, I was a little surprised by the opening segments. I didn't follow much of the coverage, and none of the marketing I'd seen ever betrayed the science-fiction elements of the story. Hell, even the box art doesn't mention the Animus or Desmond. For such a major element, it seemed an awful lot like they were going to great lengths to ignore it. I was a little intrigued by the science-fiction angle at first, and more so when they introduced the First Civilisation, but I think it's worn out it's welcome by now.
As much as I like certain things about the Animus, nothing brings me out of the experience more. The only thing worse than invisible walls are visible invisible walls. One moment I'm exploring Renaissance Florence, and before long, I'm met by a giant white wall telling me I cannot go farther. When people play games, they want to be immersed in and enthralled by the world that has been crafted for them to enjoy. The more we think we're truly part of the experience, and the less we think of the limitations of the game, the more fun we can have. When we are met with giant white walls that scream "This is just a game!", it really takes you out of the experience. As cheeky and lovable as he is, I don't want to hear Shaun go on about age-old conspiracies. For me, the best parts of the series were the bits when I walked amongst a crowd, waiting for the right time to strike. I enjoyed feeling like I was really in that time period, and the knowledge of the 2012 apocalypse (kind of funny in hindsight now) looming overhead made those checkers games kind of awkward.
There are of course, some issues that arise in terms of gameplay when shifting to modern-day. Assassin's Creed isn't a third person shooter, and swords and daggers aren't exactly the weapons of choice when one needs to end a life. Believe it or not, guns are the go-to killing method for modern-day Man. So naturally, when Abstergo came crashing into the Assassin hideout wielding batons instead of, I don't know, guns or tasers, I was a little incredulous to say the least. It was just a small portion of the game though, so I let it slide.
Then we went to their headquarters. Still, they have batons. But wait! They also have guns! Well, that'd be fine, if Vidic's men actually knew how to use them. When I first saw an Abstergo security guard unholstering his pistol in the same way a British Regular would a Flintlock, I lost it. I kept thinking to myself "That's not how guns work!" You see, in the real world, shooting and killing someone isn't all that difficult to accomplish, especially when said assailant is running at you with a small blade. In that situation, you know what you should do? Point your gun. Just, pull your gun and say "Stop!" Simple as that. You don't slowly pull it out and take aim in a fist fight, you just pull it out, and then the fight is over. They either stop, or you shoot them. If three of those guards just stood still and pointed their guns at Desmond instead of charging at him with batons, they could have easily stopped him. Because that is how guns work.
Piecing It Together
It may be a common misconception that the modern day elements of the story are needed to tie the plot together. Not true. Many stories have time leaps, and Assassin's Creed could simply be the story of many Men fighting the same fight. It is an endless struggle, and one that can spawn many sequels. Look at the acclaimed Grand Theft Auto franchise. It's many stories about many different people told over different decades and in different places. All you need to know is that you are an Assassin, and you are now in a different period of time. We don't need the Animus to witness the different time periods during which the Assassin's fought the Templars. Instead of making a convoluted science-fiction story you aren't even going to bother divulging, just stick to what makes the game great. Let's be honest. The best part of Assassin's Creed is simply being an assassin. The sci-fi gimmick was neat at first, but removing it would arguably make for a more refined and approachable experience.
A lot of people don't know what they're getting into with Assassin's Creed. There are probably plenty of people who bought Assassin's Creed III thinking it was a cool game about a historical assassin fighting for freedom in Colonial America. It has that, sure, but that's not all it is. For those who simply want to be an assassin, they are given the run-around. First, they start out as some bloke in a white hoodie (which isn't as cool in modern day). Then they play as a (badass) British guy for a huge chunk of the game, followed by his half-Native son. Finally, after several hours of exposition, you might be able to actually play as an Assassin. Now, I really liked the Haytham lot twist, and truly enjoyed the atmospheric slow burn we were given in the beginning, but that's just me. It's not hard to see how that could be very jarring for a newcomer to the franchise, or someone who just wants to play as an Assassin and have some fun. For a game with a dual storyline, only one is ever focused on in terms of marketing.
Take It or Leave It
And then we are left with that monstrosity of an ending. Honestly, I laughed. It was so bad and ridiculously confusing that I laughed at the third game as it fell flat on it's overly ambitious storytelling. By introducing this larger-than-life story arc, you severely limit how long your series can continue before it gets ridiculous, and Assassin's Creed III passed that point and kept on running. It's clear this franchise is going to Milked for every last dollar (and then some), so why have this overarching plot, if it's just going to keep perpetuating itself? The ending to Assassin's Creed III was just plain ridiculous at best, and downright insulting at worst. To add insult to injury, we get the tacked-on pivot feature. So there we are, reeling from the ending, trying to re-immerse ourselves in Colonial America, when the pause menu suddenly takes control of itself. Out of nowhere, without any real context, we hear people ramble on nonsensically about techno-babble we don't understand. We're already confused by the constantly ambiguous First-Civ conversations; why add on to the perplexity? Pivots weren't given any real explanation in the game, and only served to further insult the player after a rushed and underwhelming ending.
By forgoing the convoluted science-fiction storyline, we could have instead enjoyed simpler self-contained storylines across the highest peaks of history (MoS reference anyone?). Hearing about the trials of Altair as Ezio would be far more engaging, like unearthing ancient history, if we didn't already explore their story through the animus. It may be a bit subjective for me, but simply pretending to be someone in an artificial simulation of history isn't as fun as simply being that person. Well, I suppose that's true no matter what, since this is a game, but I could do without all the meta. Seeing time go on and bearing witness to the adventures of these assassins could be heightened by uncovering it naturally. In addition, not being part of a simulation and not being tied to a sci-fi storyline could give a better sense of dramatic irony than simply using a machine designed to read history as it happened. As it is, I could do without the Animus, and I feel it's overstayed it's welcome. The more I see zeroes and ones surrounding my sword in Assassin's Creed II, and giant white walls in the Frontier, the more I wish for a more refined experience. The more I listen to Juno and Minerva drone out about ambiguous nonsense, the more I long for intense checkers games and wandering amongst a historically accurate crowd.

The Crusaders baseball team secured their 20th win of the season on Wednesday with an 8-3 win over Elizabethtown. The win came after the Crusaders had dropped two of three to Scranton.
Susquehanna scored three runs in the first inning off E-Town starter Josh Kwak to set the tone of the game. The middle of the lineup produced as sophomore third baseman Bryan Palsi, junior designated hitter Kyle Semmel and freshman first baseman Dylan Jenkins had back-to-back-to-back RBI hits in the first inning.
Right-handed freshman pitcher Bobby Wittemann threw three innings with one earned run to get the victory for Susquehanna. The win brings his record to 2-1 for the year with a 4.87 ERA.
Jenkins went three for four on the day with a double and two RBIs in the contest. The game added to a great start to his career in a Crusader uniform.
The entire Susquehanna lineup chipped in for the day, with eight different starters getting hits. Senior centerfielder Ty Raubenstine, Palsi and junior shortstop Nick Kennedy each scored two runs in the game. Five different Crusaders drove in runs on the day.
Susquehanna gave up three runs in the game, but only one was earned. In the field, the Crusaders committed four errors on the day.
The loss drops Elizabethtown, who will be joining the Landmark Conference in 2015, to 13-14 on the year.
Kwak gave up nine hits in three innings of work for the Bears, taking the loss in the game. The misstep drops his record to 3-1 on the year.
The Crusaders used all freshman pitchers throughout the day. Relief appearances from Liam Conboy, Bobby Klatt, Brett Newman and A.J. Pinto resulted in no runs and only two Elizabethtown hits in six innings of work.
The game foreshadowed good things to come in the next few years from the young Susquehanna pitching staff. The win pushed Susquehanna to 20-8 for the 2014 season.
The team closes out conference play with a three game series against Catholic April 26 and 27. A sweep of the series would bring the Crusaders into a tie with Moravian for first place.

WASHINGTON – Wisconsin's Republican Gov. Scott Walker, fresh from his victory in last week's recall election, has been on something of a victory lap, making the circuit of Washington newsmaker venues and offering public advice to Mitt Romney's campaign.
On Sunday, Walker was on CBS' "Face the Nation" program. Thursday, it was the breakfast session sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor, a longstanding institution that gives ambitious politicians a chance to speak to an audience of Washington correspondents.
At both venues, Walker offered a similar bit of advice to Romney, urging him to go beyond criticizing President Obama and lay out a clearer, bolder plan for tackling the nation's fiscal problems. Voters will reward politicians who are "willing to stick their necks out a little bit," he said at the breakfast, citing his own experience.
Walker, who was elected in 2010, became a hero to conservatives when he pushed a bill through the Wisconsin Legislature last year that sharply curtailed collective bargaining rights for teachers and most other public employees. The move generated a furor from the unions and their allies in the Democratic Party and liberal activist groups, which sought to recall him from office. He defeated the recall handily, winning by a seven-point margin over his Democratic challenger, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett.
