On August 21, 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit upheld the U.S. Department of Labor's (DOL) Home Care Rule and reversed the lower court's decisions vacating the new rule. On October 6, 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court denied the home care industry coalition's application to stay the effective date of the new rule pending its filing of a petition for certiorari. This means that the appeals court's "mandate" will become effective on October 13.
Technically, on October 13 the D.C. Circuit mandate will instruct the district court judge to issue summary judgment in favor of the DOL. So there could be a slight additional delay before the district court's final order issues. But any third-party home care provider that has been treating its companionship or live-in employees as exempt from overtime should immediately take steps to comply with the new rule.
Going forward, all third-party home care employees covered by the new rule must be paid overtime for hours worked over 40 in a week or they must be scheduled so that they do not work over 40 hours.1
Meanwhile, the home care industry coalition still intends to file a petition for a writ of certiorari asking the Supreme Court to review the D.C. Circuit's decision upholding the Home Care Rule, and it is still possible that the Court will agree to hear the case. But this will not delay the effective date of the new rule, so it is recommended that affected employers take all steps necessary to comply with the new rule as soon as possible.

Our Lady of the Rosary
This past Saturday was our monastery's patronal feast: Our Lady of the Rosary. In the morning we enjoyed snacks while Sr. Mary Catharine gave us a demonstration of the new cash register for our new (and temporary) gift shop. This is a big upgrade and also a complicated one, at least as we learn how to use it! Sr. Mary Jacinta came to the monastery with a lot of experience with cash registers, so she helped sister and us figure things out as the demonstration went along.
In the afternoon we had a virtual visit with Sr. Mary Magdalene who is at Our Lady of Peace Monastery in Canada helping them out for three months. Sister shared with us some of her adventures as well as her day to day life there while we enjoyed sorbet and cookies. It was so good to 'visit' with sister!
In the evening it was time to sing, twice! Sr. Maria Johanna celebrated her birthday the day before, but as we were on a silent Triduum we were unable to sing to her on the actual day. Sr. Mary Jacinta celebrates her feast day on Our Lady of the Rosary, so we had a round of singing for her as well! And yes, we passed the chocolate box twice!
Some of the sisters have become serious puzzle-masters as of late. They've found a way to continue working on the puzzle even when not at the actual puzzle table by bringing sections of pieces over in reused yogurt containers.
That evening was also Sr. Mary Ana's violin debut as she preformed for the community! Sister has been taking lessons and is doing great. Actually, all of our novitiate sisters are in the process of learning new instruments, so hopefully there will be more debuts soon!
We capped off the evening with Sr. Mary Martin's reading of the poem The Battle of Lepanto. It was the first time some of our sisters had ever heard it.

A response to a particular person, a reference for everyone else
In life there are many troubling things: War, taxes and the horrifying knowledge all our attempts to escape the icy hand of oblivion will ultimately be in vein… Anyway, another such thing is the sad knowledge that sometimes people are just wrong about certain things and one will be left with two choices: a) accept that people have different opinions like a civilised person, or b) Explain why they are incorrect. In detail. Even if they try and leave. A) seems on the surface acceptable, damn sociable even, but would you not inform a child that Mr Fork and Mrs Power-Outlet do not want to be friends? It's a dereliction of duty not to explain in a calm fathery tone… exactly which Star Trek movies are the best and worst!
Your wrongness makes Kirk angry
I will point out that thanks to the exemplary nerdy scholarship of Red Letter Media some of the arguments here will be familiar. This is very much in the vein of "The Simpsons did it"; it would be hard to avoid some points expressed by Mr Plinkett.
The Wrath of Khan
A good Star Trek movie must comprise of two parts: it must be a movie and it must be Star Trek (i.e. not a Sci-Fi film with a Star Trek skin), and The Wrath of Khan has these expertly covered. The duel between Kirk and his nemesis hails back to seminal episodes like "The Balance of Terror": equal and opposite forces battling it out. Partly because of this, Khan is also a proper villain as opposed to a plot specific foil (This is also what made Dukat such a great enemy in DS9); brutally clever, motivated and quite quite mad, but a person nonetheless.
Combat-wise this film is also great. It captures the deadly elegance of pre-carrier naval warfare, of dueling capital ships in the graceful dance of combat: presenting ones best side to the enemy other such gruff sailor talk. And of course we have the final showdown that places each ship as an extension of its commander's body; by removing advanced technology all that's left is skill and experience.
Khan is shocked to discover space has THREE dimensions
And finally there's the general themes of age and youth. Not just in the case of Kirk and the past catching up to him, but also that war claims the young not old (The cadets) and of the sins of the father visited upon the son. Aging in particular appears in the next film on this list.
Notable moments: Spock dies a tearful death :'( and introduces a generation to utilitarianism
The Undiscovered Country
Probably the most overtly political Star Trek since the one with the half-black/white people, old enemies may be friends and society much adapt. (Of course had art mirrored life, The US Federation would have imposed draconian market reforms on the Klingon Empire and bought majority shares in all their Dilithium wells…). This also continues the merry themes of the characters (and cast) aging and a changing world they may not be able to adapt to. Kirk especially defined Himself as a defender of the Federation; now he finds himself standing alone on a deserted battlefield his enemies slain, and then forced to embrace the ones that managed to escape.
"At least your not fucking communists…"
Equally while in Search for Spock the advancement of youth/modernity was kept at bay by timely sabotage, this time the contrasts between the old war horses of the Enterprise and Klingon battle cruisers and the Excelsior and the Bird-of-Prey (and therefore the new/old generation) are stalk . For the crew this is truly is their last hurrah and despite all their accomplishments they must succumb to the cruel mockery of old age.
Notable moments: Spock mind-rapes a female prisoner while everyone watches, and who doesn't love a Shakespeare quoting enemy?
A contentious one this. While it doesn't have the gore or explosions of First Contact, it's actually a very good film. It is clearly an offspring of TNG while First Contact really needs a paternity test. Central to the piece are Picard's regrets and the visions of a life he could have led: One of family and scholarship as opposed to exploration and solitude. As with The Wrath of Khan, by drawing on themes of the series it establishes a continuity that firmly places the film within the established universe. Because of this, the film has a genuine heart at its centre beyond 'rooting for the good guys'. This culminates in the nexus giving Picard exactly what he wants, and he is once again forced to choose between personal happiness and duty.
OK the plot is a moth-eaten and it was clearly done on the cheap (and separately why would you leave the body of a great Federation Hero to rot on some dusty planet?) but as an overall experience it is a better Star Trek film than First Contact
Notable moments: Finding out which of the TOS crew needed a pay cheque, Data's "life form" song and a woman crashes the Enterprise
First Contact
Here the firms truly begin to diverge from the source material. As pointed out by Mr Plinkett, the thoughtful philosophical Picard is replaced by a somewhat more 'all-American' action hero type. They also go for a laboured Captain Ahab thing (subtly explained to those not paying attention ¾ of the way through), but at the risk of being a pedant, the Borg clearly care for Picard: Queeny talks to Picard, goads him, and why keep invading the Federation when there's a galaxy of easy-to-eat species out there if not for their own revenge?
"Get these motherfucking Borg off my motherfucking spaceship"
Also (perhaps due to the success of Star Wars or cheaper CGI) the ships begin to behave like 1KM long X-Wings as opposed to the lumbering capital ships they are. While the action is fun and exciting and things certainly blow up, there not tension: especially when compared to the nebula duel in The Wrath of Khan or the cloaked ship/U-Boat action of The Undiscovered Country. Oh, and by establishing the Borg Queen as an avatar, they left the door open for Voyager to ruin the concept and the Borg entirely.
Don't get me wrong it's a good and enjoyable film, I'm just explaining why it's not third in the list.
Notable moments: Picard eviscerates crewman Lynch, Data has his first orgasm, The Enterprise-E is pretty
The Voyage Home
It's just a fun film. Again it has that 'cinematic episode' quality to it that a Star Trek film should have. This is also notable for the last time a Star Trek film will do whimsy well. Somewhat light-hearted compared to the others, but fun to watch. There's not a huge amount I wanna say about it apart from There be whales here captain.
Notable moments: Scotty alters the timeline (no one cares), Chekhov can't find his Wessels, and Kirk steals himself a piece of ass from the past.
The Search for Spock
We're just on the edge of the 'bad' films here. While nothing is wrong Search for Spock as such, it's just not very good; more a bridge between the fantastic Wrath of Khan and the pretty damn good Voyage Home. As an 'OK' film it occupies the spot well and it's certainly the last one on the list I would watch out of choice rather than boredom or threat of death.
What makes this film worth watching is the first two reels. Kirk and the gang are going to steal a ship from within the heart of starfleet and there is a jolly crime-caper feel to this section as they plan, scheme and sabotage as if they're about to knock over a space casino. It's light hearted without being childish.
Kirks solution to the Kobayashi Maru is also a powerful moment. His love for his ship is a common theme (there was a creepy TOS episode that inadvertently suggests he's a little tooattached) and his solution to destroy it to solve the unsolvable puzzle is a great character moment.
Notable moments: Depending on Vulcan sex-laws Spock may have been statutory raped, Kirk's son is killed by Doc Brown
Jimmy, it's your kid! I just stabbed him
The Motion Picture
What really is there to say. It's not a very good film. The costumes are… odd… and the whole plot is based around a stroppy NASA probe with daddy issues.
Notable moments: Ummm, the bit that's sorta like 2001: A Space Odyssey?
The Final Frontier
We're now getting to the dregs but have not yet hit the bottom of the barrel. There could have been a good story here; crazy cult, failed peace initiatives, fraternal strife. But instead this is the film that almost killed the movie franchise. The rag-tag crew approach worked in Search for Spock as they had stolen the ship, why exactly is Starfleet sending a half-finished, half-manned vessel into anything? I know most, if not all, the Star Trek films are filled with plot holes one could fly an Andorian freighter through, but this is pushing it. I don't want to be mean to it because it's just so silly. And we never find out what God wants with a starship.
Notable moments: Naked fan dance *shudder*, Kirk torpedoes God
Now we're here, the ladle is trawling up more wood than beverage. What an awful film with awful moments. There is shockingly poor plot (Just watch the Red Letter Media review); why for instance is Picard rebelling; surely he should be acting like a spry 60 year old? Why not just set up a spa on another continent? Why is there a child Data tries to make friends with? The films suffers awfully from the ill-timed, ill-placed and ill-conceived levity provided by both the former and latter plot 'elements'. Ho Ho we're expected to cry, they're acting irresponsibly because the planet makes you a bit younger each day and Data is admiring a child's neuro-plasticity. What. Fun. It's just embarrassing, like a poorly delivered joke at an office party that continues for two hours.
Tonight on 'To Catch a Mechanical Predator'
The final insult isthe script must have been written someone who's knowledge of Star Trek comes solely from comedy sketches about star trek or what they read about it in the TV Guide. I can see the script meeting "Ooo whats this? ketracel white? Lets put it in the script at some point", "Nerds play video games right? Lets give the Enterprise a joystick, they'll love it". No, no we won't. Eugh, I mean if you're not gonna try we'd rather you didn't bother.
It was dull, predictable, yet paradoxically nonsensical, garbage. I would try and be witty but there's no point. There's nothing funny about this
Notable moments: "Make sure to play every day Data" DIE, DIE A HORRIBLE AND PAINFUL DEATH
To describe how horrendously bad this film is, take this comparison. The message of The Wrath of Khan; Death and rebirth, Kirk realises his melancholy about aging is misplaced and there is still wonder to explore. Generations; Picard learns he is a man born to put duty before himself and despite all the might-have-been, he finds comfort in that. Nemesis; Picard learns that being a defective clone raised by daemons on a perdition-like mining planet may change your outlook on life.
There are gang-rapes less forced than this 'angst' the script circles around like a turd in storm drain. We're supposed to believe that a man who has changed his own past on several occasions is tormented by the idea his botched MZ twin has turned out a little differently? Way to change my perceptions on the nature/nurture debate cretins.
Personally I blame the parents
Say one thing for Final Frontier, Motion Picture etc, at least there was a glimmer of that elusive creature we like to callnarrative threading between each scene. This film, even more so than Insurrection, is just a collection of depressing events drawn from the idea bucket from a drug-fuelled brain-storming sessions in an insane asylum that someone had obviously been sick in. B4? A sodding dune-buggy chase? Troy rape? Eugh.
Notable moments: Watching the final twitches of the Star Trek corpse, and being almost relieved it has finally succumb to the inhuman torment of the last few years.
So there you have it. You will notice that Mr Abrams newest installment isn't here. This is because way very enjoyable, I really don't think it can be classed as a Star Trek film as such.
So endeth the sermon, go in peace to love and serve the Federation

Dear God,
How dare they try to apologize to me! Who wants that sorry, I'm sorry anyway? I really do not know if I am sorry would be good enough for the hurt that they have caused me. Can just one of the people that hurt me die slowly or quickly its Your choice Lord? Okay Lord, it is not right to kill them, soooooooooooooooo can You just dismember them a bit? There are plenty of people getting along just fine with one arm or leg. Hmmmmm….. naw because they would just appreciate the handicap parking spot that they would get and it would upset me that they would get better parking than me. What else could I hope for? Hmmmmmm…… Okay Lord final plea at the ideas of revenge You could do, to get back at them for me, send them to hell.
(Put Your Name Here)
It is really sobering to see how we feel sometimes in front of us. I can't lie I would be able to insert my name in that spot as well, but the fact is that we should not be able to. I read a recent post of my Facebook that read "Life becomes easier when you learn to accept an apology that you never got. How sobering. Talk about a forgiving heart! The Word of God says that a fortified (heavily defended) city is easier to win over than an offended brother. It is so true. The physical strength of many is easier to overcome than the hardened, hurt, or broken heart of just "ONE". Yet we leave a string of the offense we have cause in others and never have apologized. It is not even in our bucket list.
Shame on each of us. However I will tell you that we do have to get to the point where an apology is secondary to our ability to forgive because if God did answer those types of prayers, then there would be no me to write this blog, nor a you to read it. The absolute truth is that we owe apologies that we will perhaps never give, and we are owed apologies that we will probably never get. Allow God to prepare you heart for the offense that you encounter in this life. It allows a mental freedom that you can only dream of. Think about how much worry we lend to past hurt. Is "the apology" really worth your peace? You pray for me in this and I will pray for you.
I am admittedly a work in progress.

It later became reconstructed as Makola Market in 1924 which resides in the center of the city of Accra. On August 18, 1974 the market was destroyed by the Rawlings government due to the belief that the market was hurting Ghana's economy due to accusations that banned goods were being sold at the market. Makola Market is being reconstructed as of 2016. This market is dominated by female traders and the sales mainly consist of fresh produce clothes, jewelry, and imported goods.

Its More Than Just Numbers - Isn't It?
Having said that, the table below is simply a "guide", since the values depicted are specific to the cables measured.
Minor differences can be expected due to variations in winding the helix, cable length, wire used and sleeving used.
e.g, one person has measured the capacitance of a 0.75 meter interconnect to be around 34 pF
The cables YOU build may not have identical numbers, but they will be fairly close, provided you use similar techniques, parts and wires.
Also - the numbers below are for cables of a specific length. So you will have to estimate the numbers for your cables if their length differs from those in the table
e.g. if YOUR speakers cables are 2 meters long then the numbers can be estimated as follows...
Capacitance: 181 / 3 x 2 = 120pf
Inductance: 3.2 / 3 x 2 = 2.13 uH
XL @ 20 kHz: 0.402 / 3 x 2 = .268 Ohms
Loop Inductance - is measured across the cable at one end, while shorting cable at the other end,
If you really want to get into the science take a look at this link...
So - what do all those numbers (metrics) actually mean?
Rather than delve into complex formulas, I thought that comparing the Helix numbers to other well known commercial brands of cables might be easier for readers to understand, e.g...
- The 60 pF/meter capacitance of the Helix Speaker Cable is significantly lower than some cables from Kimber Kable and TOTL Cardas cables which often exceed 300pF/Meter. This is important if connecting to a high current solid state design amplifier.
- The 1.1 uF/meter inductance of the Helix Speaker Cable is higher than some other brands, but NAIM NAC A5 cable is rated at 1.0 uH/meter (highly recommended by NAIM). I own a NAIM amp and the cables appear to work very well with it and also with some other brands that adopt a high current design philosophy
- One of the few companies that seem to have been able to keep both Capacitance and Inductance to very low levels is Nordost - however, a fellow DIYer's that tried the Helix promptly sold off their Nordost cables in favour of the Helix - go figure
The Helix "numbers" are Middle-of-the-road for each cable type, but based on feedback from others who have tried them, they appear be a good match to a lot of audio components. (see "IMPORTANT:" below) and will minimize many of the effects that conventional geometries suffer from.
The Loop Inductance of the Helix Speaker Cable, may be higher than other cables out there, and some people may believe this to be an issue.
However, I believe that this does not present any problems, when you consider the frequency range of a person's "normal" hearing abilities lies between 20Hz and 12kHz over the age of 50.
As opposed to the generally accepted audio industry standard of 20Hz and 20kHz
Of course - if you are a teenager with excellent hearing you may be able to hear as high as 17kHz, (and perhaps a little higher) at which point you may observe a very small decrease in volume in the 15kHz-20Khz range
And if you are an engineer in one of the many companies out there that promotes frequency response of their components to be 0Hz to 100kHz - then these cables may NOT be for you.
There is some debate as to whether the additional 5% (of the speaker impedance) on top of the actual speaker's impedance would be noticeable. e.g.,
- my speakers have an impedance of 6 Ohms
- 5% of 6 is 0.3 ohms
- if I look at the impedance of the my 3 meter Helix cables from the table above = 0.402 Ohms @ 20kHz
- So - If I could hear a 20kHz signal I "might" detect a tiny drop in volume
- BUT - my hearing ability has diminished over the years, so taking the 12kHz value of 0.241 Ohms
- I am well within the 5% margin
- BUT AGAIN - this is not a hard and fast rule, simply because the crossover employed in the speaker may have a significant impact on whether any cable will sound good - OR NOT!
- I have not heard of any negative feedback from any of the people that have tried Helix cables in systems ranging from sub $1000 systems, to systems exceeding $70,000
I have posted the Helix numbers above - because I have been asked for them many times, however...
Cable metrics should be used ONLY as a guide!
They ARE NOT a substitute for actually - LISTENING!
IMPORTANT:- electrostatic speakers is an area I have NO experience of, so I would strongly recommend anyone looking at using the Helix Speaker Cables with electrostatic speakers to look at the statistics above and assessing their possible impact before building or connecting Helix Speaker Cables
I have also observed that the Helix design actually enhances the operation of the components they are connected to.
e.g. most of my components run a few degrees cooler than with other cables
So right about now you might be thinking that these issues only apply to areas where the voltage and current is of significance, as in power and speaker cables, but regardless of cable type...

Gulangyu Island
|Gulangyu Island Map
Gulangyu Island Pictures
During the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), the island was called 'Yuanshazhou Island'. It got its present name from the huge reef surrounding it. When the tide comes in, the waves pound the reef and it sounds like the beating of a drum. The island came to be named 'Gulang'. Gu in Chinese means 'drum', and Lang, 'waves'.
Gulangyu Island History
During the later Ming Dynasty, the troops of national hero Zheng Chenggong were stationed here. After the Opium War in 1842, 13 countries including Great Britain, France and Japan established consulates, churches, and hospitals, turning Gulangyu Island into a common concession. In 1942, Japan occupied the island until the end of the War of Resistance against Japan.
This area has about 20,000 permanent residents, all of whom enjoy a comfortable, relaxing life. Only electric-powered vehicles are permitted on Gulangyu Island, so the environment is free from the noise and pollution of combustion engines. You can have many things to do on Gulangyu Island. Breathing the clean air, appreciating the ever-present green trees and lovely flowers, anyone here can feel like they are in heaven. With classical and romantic European-style architecture, Gulangyu Island truly deserves to be called the 'Architecture Museum'. It is also known as the 'Cradle of Musicians' and 'Island of Music' because of its reputation for music appreciation. To comply with the music atmosphere of the island, a Piano Museum was built there in 2000.
|Gulangyu Island, Xiamen
The Island Ring Road, which circles Gulangyu Island, allows you to fully enjoy all the sights of this small, charming island.
Among the many scenic spots on the island, the most attractive are Sunlight Rock and the Shuzhuang Garden.
Located in the south-central part of Gulangyu Island, Sunlight Rock is the island's highest point with an altitude of 92.7 meters (304 feet). Though it may not rank with high mountain peaks, it appears superb and grand when seen from afar. The name comes from a sun-shaped formation in the granite. When the sun rises, the morning light illuminates the granite in Sunlight Temple and the rocks are bathed with sunlight.
Sunlight Rock
At the foot of Sunlight Rock stands the Memorial Hall of Zheng Chenggong, built in honor of the hero's feats which include expelling the Dutch colonists and re-occupying Taiwan. Wandering up the steep rock path, visitors will see many profound inscriptions left by poets, the oldest of which dates back to over 400 years. This is the main cultural sight on the hill. Continuing on, you will see the preserved training grounds of Zheng Chenggong's troops. Near the field is a huge rock bridging two cliffs, forming a natural entrance to a cave. This is called 'Old Summer Cave' (Gu Bishu Dong) where you can feel a pleasantly cool breeze. It's the perfect viewing spot to appreciate the scenery of Gulangyu Island. A fantastic panorama of Xiamen City, including Nanputuo Temple, Xiamen University, and Hulishan Battery is within view.
First built in 1931 on the southside of Gulangyu Island, Shuzhuang Garden was once a private villa. It became a garden park open to the public in 1955. It is divided into two parts - the Garden of Hiding the Sea (Canghaiyuan) and the Garden of Making-Up Hills (Bushanyuan). It was exquisitely designed to embody three important characteristics in gardening - hiding elements, borrowing from one's surroundings, and combining movements.
Shuzhuang Garden
The principle of hiding elements is embodied in the way the ocean remains hidden from view even if you walk right up to the garden gate. However, once you emerge from the bamboo forest, the seascape leaps into view. Climb the Tower of Tide-Viewing to really get a terrific look at the sea.
Borrowing from one's surroundings refers to cleverly using naturally available scenery. Using the original slopes facing the sea, the reefs in the bay, and the shape of the shoreline, the former garden owner built bridges and pavilions at various levels. The panorama changes from a small bay to a vast ocean as you ascend. Here, visitors can taste the spray of the surging waves and get a bird's-eye view of other charming islands. Both Sunlight Rock and Hero Hill (Yingxiongshan) are also visible.
The garden also possesses another characteristic - the combining of movements. Its unique arrangement joins a rockwork that includes a maze of connected caves with fine pavilions on the side of the slope. Lovely children chasing and gamboling among the caves represent movement and activity, while people resting in the pavilions give a feeling of tranquility and harmonious contemplation.
As a complex of Chinese traditional gardens, Shuzhuang Gardens entices visitors so much that one cannot help but want to see inside.
Gulangyu Island has other sights worth seeing including the Bright Moon Garden, the Seasight Watch Garden, Yu Park, and Xiamen Museum. The Bright Moon Garden is located in the southeast of the island with an area of over 20,000 square meters (23,921 square yards). It is a statuary garden of national hero Zheng Chenggong with enchanting views. The appealing Seasight Watch Garden boasts villas of various styles of both China and the West. It has become a noted resort for visitors.

From the North Railway Station, take bus Touristr Line and get off at Cruise Center first. Then walk to Dongdu Dock and take the ferry to Gulangyu Neicuo'ao Dock.
Asked by Jess from SINGAPORE | Oct. 16, 2018 03:16Reply
Can tickets to Gulangyu be bought in person a few days before at the terminal?
Can I buy tickets about 5 days for the ferry ride to Gulangyu about 4 or 5 days before i.e. I arrive in Xiamen on a Tuesday and would like to buy tickets for Saturday as in between I will be going to Wuyishan and returning to Xiamen. Which is the correct ferry terminal for foreigners? The information I've found online is conflicting, and I can't seem to buy tickets online.
Answers (1)
Answered by Rena from USA | Oct. 16, 2018 20:38
You can book the ticket online on its official website in advance 15 days. Or you can go to Dongdu cruise center pier, aka Xiagu Pier to buy the tickets, which is located at No.2 Donggang Road, Xiamen international cruise center square. Take your passport with you.

No, you don't need to purchase them online. Just buy the tickets on site. Go there earlier in order to avoid waiting in queue.

EA hit back (again) in Activision "mud-slinging"
Battlefield 3 publisher EA won't let up in the verbal war between the company and Modern Warfare 3 publisher Activision, having now responded to comments made by the rival at Gamescom last week, which accused EA of "mudslinging".
Corporate spokesman Jeff Brown told IndustryGamers: "Welcome to the big leagues Eric — I know you're new in the job but someone should have told you this is an competitive industry.
"You've got every reason to be nervous. Last year Activision had a 90 share in the shooter category. This year, Battlefield 3 is going to take you down to 60 or 70. At that rate, you'll be out of the category in 2-3 years. If you don't believe me, go to the store and try to buy a copy of Guitar Hero or Tony Hawk."
Don't expect this to be the last you hear from either side. With EA drawing first blood as Battlefield 3 launches in just over two months, the two will likely keep up the chatter long after Modern Warfare 3's release in November.

Green Detox Soup
This Green Detox soup will help keep you healthy during the winter months (and every month) and is a great addition to your diet, especially if you find yourself feeling sluggish and tired.
We all know how important it is to eat our greens and while in the summer it's easy enough to eat your raw green veg or whip up a green smoothie, but a little more challenging in the winter, as our bodies crave foods that are warm and comforting.
This soup is packed with antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and immune boosting nutrients.
1 tablespoons coconut oil/ or a few tbsp. of veg broth
1 white onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 zucchinis, sliced
2 cups fine green beans, chopped
1.5 cups frozen pea
1 cup chopped spinach
1.5 cups broccoli florets
5-6 cups vegetable stock
1 cup of chopped mushrooms (mixed)
3 tablespoons fresh mint
2 sprigs fresh thyme, removed from stem
Salt / Pepper
- Coconut yoghurt
- Toasted seeds
Add onion and garlic to a large pot with the coconut oil and fry for approximately 8 minutes or until onions have softened.
Add zucchini, green beans, broccoli and peas to the pot and cook for several minutes.
Add the vegetable stock, mint and thyme. Bring to the boil and then simmer for 30 minutes.
Add the soup to a blender or use stick blender to puree soup until smooth. (You may also keep this chunky) Season with salt and pepper.
Garnish with coconut (or any dairy-free) yoghurt and toasted seeds. serve while hot.

Robbie Neilson today warned Hearts they must handle Forfar's direct and aggressive playing style if they want to progress in tonight's League Cup tie.
The head coach is demanding the right attitude from his players at Station Park and explained that the League One leaders will be in their faces right from kick-off.
Neilson, pictured right, watched Forfar last week in their Petrofac Cup tie against Dunfermline and noted their competitive approach. He expects the same this evening in the League Cup second round and ordered Hearts to stand up to the challenge.
"Forfar are direct. They play up to [Chris] Templeman a lot and try to feed off him," said Neilson "They've signed Lewis Allan on loan from Hibs. Whether he plays or not I don't know, it will depend on Hibs and whether they want him cup-tied or not. We have to deal with that direct ball. We have to deal with them pressing us aggressively at the start of the game. This is a cup final for them. We're going up to Station Park in front of a decent crowd and Forfar are coming off the back of some decent results.
"They're sitting pretty in the league and they got a decent result on Saturday against Stenhousemuir. It's important we go up there and start the game right and have the right attitude."
Several young Tynecastle players could be involved tonight but Neilson still intends fielding a strong line-up. "McKirdy, McGhee, McHattie, Liam Smith, Oliver, King – these guys are desperate for game time but we want to go up there and win so we need to be strong," he continued.
"It's important we utilise the squad and I'll do that. I'll make sure guys get game time and we also have an eye on Saturday's league game with Hamilton. Tonight is a game we want to go and win and I expect us to go up there and win it. If we do things properly, prepare properly and start the game properly, then we should win."
Neilson added that Hearts' place atop the Scottish Premiership is not a distraction for the players as they refuse to look too far ahead.
"The boys just concentrate on the next day and the next game. The focus now is Forfar. Once that game is out the way, then we'll start looking at Hamilton.
"You can't start looking at where you are in the league or predict where you're going to be in ten weeks time.
"You just have to make sure you're ready for the next game."

This beautiful black short coated girl is Scarla who is 4 years old and spayed.
Scarla loves people and has met children with who she is fine but she is very boisterous so would probably be better in a home with older children.
She is fine with other dogs but hates cats with a passion and lives in an area where there are lots of cats which makes her bark and pull on the lead which stresses her owner.
When our volunteers arrived, Scarla greeted them with a bark initially but then a very waggy tail and lots of licks. She soon relaxed and caused no problems.
They took Scarla for a walk and she is obviously very alert to the cats that live in the area which caused her to pull on the lead and bark. Our volunteers thought she was very nervous of the cats. Once they got the the fields nearby, Scarla was a different dog, she just wanted to sniff and explore. She walked lovely to heel until they approached the houses where the cats were.
The owner is very anxious because of Scarla's behaviour and we think this is being transferred to Scarla making her worse.
So Scarla hates cats and also doesn't like travelling in the car. She happily jumps in the car but as soon as the engine starts she begins whining very loudly and doesn't stop until the engine stops!!
Our volunteers think Scarla's problem is more down to her owner's nervous disposition and in confident experienced hands she will blossom and calm down.
Scarla is also being left for long hours on her own which is not helping the situation.
We believe that the sooner Scarla moves into a new home, the better for both her and her current owner.

For this piece, I responded to a series of prompts I've always enjoyed: the names of lipsticks and nail polish. I have always wanted this job. A few of the names I have found are below. What I wrote follows.

Cranberry Ice
Pale Smoke
Jupiter's Glow
"You've got glitter on your cheek," a friend told me recently.
"I know," I said. "Don't try and get it off; I've tried. It's impossible." What I don't say is that glitter is part of my under-eye concealer. Those are tiny reflective squares that make the light bounce back. What you call "glitter" is actually a sophisticated microlight enhancing system. It's what makes people look flawless in photographs.
Another friend recently asked if she was wearing too much makeup, to which I honestly replied, "No. You don't even look like you're wearing makeup." She smiled.
"I'm just wearing a little powder and some mascara." She looked great.
"What about me?" I asked. "Am I wearing too much makeup?" She studied me in a cool way.
"I can't even tell that you're wearing makeup," she said thoughtfully. "Are you really, or are you kidding me?
"Just some concealer on under my eyes," I said. "And a little sheer foundation on my cheeks." We both laughed.
"Well," she said, "you really know how to apply it."
As if it isn't enough to come out as gay and a Madonna die-hard, now I find I'm coming out about wearing makeup. I'm a man who wears makeup. Why? Because I look better in photographs, that's why. And as I age, I have found it becomes harder and harder to take a good photograph. Flash photographs are especially bad, but with makeup on, those magic little reflective squares marry with the bright light and POW! My face has a flawless moment.
This all began when a friend became a makeup artist and—according to him—I was the perfect pallet. Once he finger-waved my hair and made me look like a beautiful Russian model: big eyes and pink lips. Another time, he took me to a Kylie Minogue concert; my lips were lavender and my false eyelashes silver. I looked like my mother might have looked if she had been born in 1980 in Australia and been a lifetime Kylie groupie.
When we saw Moulin Rouge at the Castro Theater, he wrapped me in a red feather boa, gelled my hair off my forehead, and gave me rosy red lips and smoky eyes. He made me love the artifice in a way that was playful and theatrical, but he also helped me to see how a little can go a long way.
A few weeks ago, I got an impromptu dinner invitation from a friend I hadn't seen in a while. I had just scrubbed my face with a washcloth and gentle cream cleanser. "I just put the salmon in the oven," he said. "Can you pop over now?"
When I arrived, my face naked and pale, the tiny veins on my cheeks and the shadows under my eyes clearly showing, he greeted me with a hug and took a good long look at me. "You look great," he said. "Are you wearing makeup?" I shook my head. "You look great," he said again.
Love is blind, I guess. And much less critical than I am when it's just me and the bathroom mirror.

Fashion Design students and enthusiasts of the Fort Worth area were challenged to create a "blue carpet" look at the Project Goodwill Fashion Show on October 24. Yesenia Contreras, a sophomore, and Sam Cogley, a junior in the Fashion Design program, were among the seven designers chosen to participate. The designers were given $100 to spend at local Goodwill stores. Sam's gown was created using woven VHS tapes, a suitcase, a velvet shirt, a lactation bag, broken glass and ceramic from a vase and a food storage container, and a basketball. The unconventional design placed 2nd in the competition.

A New eBook: Weaving with Wool
A wool swatch collection
by Sharon Alderman
|Wool samples by Nell Znamierowski
|Wadmal Vest by Jane Patrick
My first weaving was a sampler. The warp was 8/4 cotton carpet warp (orange) and the weft was Aunt Lydia's rug yarn (army green). The yarns and colors were chosen by the teacher, whose intention was for us to learn how it all worked, not to produce a quality item. That was fine with me. I was more fascinated by how it all worked than I was interested in creating a beautiful product. I had my weaving dreams, but I didn't expect to achieve them immediately (at least not in that class). Somehow, though, this orientation separated the weaving process from the materials themselves (to say nothing about their colors). I discounted how important they would come to be.
Since my focus was on the interlacement, even when I turned to the selection of materials and colors, I gave no thought to how they might be finished. My weaving dream was to weave coverlets (for a living!). After much struggle, I succeeded in producing doubleweave snowball-and-pine tree coverlets in wool yarns using a draw attachment on a countermarch loom. Both the yarn choices and the color choices were easy: coverlets were woven in wool in blue and white. Because my focus was on how it all happened, I was only interested in how the piece looked on the loom, which was when I decided whether or not it fulfilled my dream. Doing anything to them afterwards (such as "wash" them) was not an option. I sold them as "Dry Clean Only." (I really didn't intend for them to get dirty. Surely no one would USE them except for show and to save as heirlooms! With this in mind, I wrote messages on white bias tape with a permanent marker that I placed between the layers, imagining that hundreds of years hence, the coverlet might actually wear out, and someone would find my "message in a bottle." To my credit, the message never said: How could you let this treasure wear out!)
It took about ten years as a weaver for me to discover that washing, or "wet-finishing," almost always improves a woven fabric. I needed our newest Best of Handwoven eBook, Weaving with Wool! In addition to ten projects in wool that are each beautiful and unique in themselves, this eBook includes everything you need to know about weaving and wet-finishing wool fabrics. Articles by Sharon Alderman and Nell Znamierowski give instructions for samplers that teach color, weave structure, and design principles specific to wool. Laura Fry and Sharon Alderman focus on finishing techniques, including water temperature, degree of agitation, and how to determine the right amount of each. Even now, in bringing these articles together, I have discovered new tips that I've used in the last few weeks.
Projects in the eBook (on both four and eight shafts) include blankets, throws, and a coverlet, along with several vests, a pile-weave pillow and more. I hope you enjoy the process and the products you'll make with these great patterns.

Temperature above freezing/
For the first time in a long time the temperature here has gone above freezing, and it seems a thaw is on the way. I decided to photograph these icicles before they disappear. I hope the resident wildlife in our garden is somewhere else when they drop.
Must be getting tougher. -1 celsius feels like Spring!!

The First Century Aramaic Bible in Plain English (The Torah-The Five Books of Moses)
Paperback, 228 Pages
List Price: $22.50
Price: $13.50
You Save: $9.00 ( 40% )
Prints in 3-5 business days
This is a prose English and very literal translation of the first five books of the Peshitta Aramaic Old Testament (The Torah). Aramaic was the language of Jesus and of 1st century Israel. The Peshitta Bible is the world's first complete Christian Bible. The Peshitta Old Testament is itself a translation of the Hebrew Bible completed in the 1st century AD, according to the available evidence. No Peshitta scholar places the Peshitta OT later than the 2nd century AD. As such, it gives an early look at the state of the Hebrew Bible at that time, since Aramaic and Hebrew are sister Semitic languages and about as close to each other as any two languages can be, sharing the same alphabet, writing, grammar, much vocabulary and even similar pronunciation of many words. Some of the original Old Testament is Aramaic, such as Daniel chapters 2 through 7 inclusive, and Ezra 4 through much of 7. It even appears in a verse of Genesis 31 and one verse in Jeremiah 10:11. 228 pages, paperback.

Honeywell HON, +0.52% is sliding 3.3 percent to $23.44, Boeing BA, +0.96% is shedding 3 percent to $28.74 and United Technologies UTX, +1.37% is slumping 2.4 percent to $60.03. Those stocks are the three biggest percentage losers within the Dow industrials.

Also weighing on the aerospace sector, Banc of America initiated coverage of Boeing with a less than enthusiastic "neutral" rating, saying new aircraft orders are likely to remain depressed due to financial difficulties at airliners and to an oversupply of aircraft.

On Wednesday, August 10, President Rodrigo Duterte told soldiers at an army base in Zamboanga del Sur that it is imperative to neutralize the Abu Sayyaf terrorist group. "Destroy them, that's an order," Duterte said.
The president's command is a far cry from what he had previously said about the terrorist group.
Last month, in a speech during the Hariraya Eid al-Fitr celebration in Davao City, Duterte stated, "I'm not including the Abu Sayyaf dito sa criminality. You've never heard me say that they are criminals.
An Inquirer report had quoted Duterte as saying that the members of the Abu Sayyaf resorted to violence because "they were driven to desperation."
Keep in mind that by this time, the Abu Sayyaf's beheading of Malaysian Bernard Then and Canadian nationals John Ridsdel and Robert Hall were still fairly recent. Then was beheaded in November 2015, Ridsdel in April 2016, and Hall in June 2016.
By contrast, the August 10 Reuters report said that Duterte "described Abu Sayyaf as terrorists and bandits who kill civilians for no apparent reason, and ruled out negotiations."
Duterte's attack order comes in the wake of reports that the Abu Sayyaf is strengthening its ties with international terrorist organization ISIS. On the other hand, an April 2016 TIME feature had quoted Rohan Gunaratna—an international terrorism expert at S. Rajaratnam School of Security Studies in Singapore—who said, "It's very likely that [Abu Sayyaf] will declare a satellite of the caliphate in the coming year."
