Hi, this is my 1st post, and it relates to a bug i found while playing Syberia 3 on the Playstation 4
Location: The Youkol Camp
Wandering around the market place all was fine. I could exit the market place and re enter it without issue. I could also interact with other characters in the scene.
On re booting the game the following day, I was once again able to walk around the market place. The problem was, i could not exit the market place, and there appeared to be no way of inter acting with the other characters. There were no prompt icons, the other characters failed to interact with Kate.
I have only one save point, as the game auto saves on the Playstation 4. I hope they fix this issue soon, as for the moment i am unable to continue playing a game i've owned for only 2 days

Governing Body Backs Armstrong Penalties, Challenges Anti-Doping Community
By Barry Janoff
October 22, 2012: The International Cycling Union, the governing body that oversees cycling worldwide, has upheld a decision by the U.S. Anti-Doping Association's move to strip Lance Armstrong of all of his titles — including seven consecutive Tour de France victories — and to also ban him from the sport for life.
However, while accepting blame for what Armstrong himself claimed was as many as 600 drug tests that he passed, the group — known internationally as the Union Cycliste International — said that testing must continue to evolve and challenged other groups that also oversaw drug testing in sports during the time Armstong was active to issue their own reports.
According to a statement released today by the UCI, the organization "confirms that it will not appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and that it will recognize the sanction that USADA has imposed."
The UCI statement specifically pointed to the evidence that the USADA mounted against Armstrong. (See the full statement here.)
The USADA's report included sworn statements from 26 witnesses, including 11 former teammates. The association banned Armstrong from cycling for life and decreed that 14 years of his career results, including the Tour de France wins from 1999-2005, be erased.
Armstrong also won a bronze medal at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, which could be stripped if the International Olympic Committee moves to do so.
Armstrong has vehemently denied the use of any prohibited substances, claiming that he never tested positive in upward of 600 drug tests he took during his pro career. He won most of his Tour de France competitions while riding for a team under the lead sponsorship of the U.S. Postal System.
According to its statement, the "UCI has tested Lance Armstrong 218 times. If Lance Armstrong was able to beat the system then the responsibility for addressing that rests not only with the UCI but also with [World Anti-Doping Agency] and all of the other anti-doping agencies who accepted the results."
Regarding the testing of Armstrong, the UCI stated, "That process extends beyond the UCI, and the anti-doping agencies including WADA, USADA, AFLD [the French Anti-Doping Agency] and CONI [the Italian National Olympic Committee] must contribute to it by also examining how many times they tested Lance Armstrong and by providing their own explanation for why he never tested positive in the tests that they respectively conducted.
The USADA issued its report and sanctions on Oct. 10. Since then, the majority of Armstrong's marketing partners have either severed ties or said they plan not to renew contracts with him. That includes Nike, Anheuser-Busch's Michelob Ultra, RadioShack, 24 Hour Fitness and Trek.
Armstrong earned about $15 million in endorsements in 2011, according to industry analysts. He also earned more as a speaker at corporate, sports and other events.
Most of the companies also are aligned with LiveStrong, the foundation started by Armstrong to raise awareness and funds in the fight against cancer and have said they would continue to support the organization. Armstrong has resigned as chairman but will remain on its board of directors.
Oakley eyewear, which had said it would await a ruling from the UCI, today officially cut ties with Armstrong.
"Based on UCI's decision today and the overwhelming evidence that USADA presented, Oakley has severed its longstanding relationship with Lance Armstrong, effective immediately," the company wrote in a statement. "When Lance joined our family many years ago, he was a symbol of possibility. We are deeply saddened by the outcome, but look forward with hope to athletes and teams of the future who will rekindle that inspiration by racing clean, fair and honest."
The UCI said their decision supported the move by the USADA but also brings to light that tests to prevent athletes from cheating must continue to evolve.
"[The UCI has] recognized the problem of doping within the sport and taken significant steps to confront the problem and to clean up cycling."
"Their testimony confirms that the anti-doping infrastructure that existed at that time was, by itself, insufficient and inadequate to detect the practices taking place within the team," the UCI said of the athletes who were quoted in the USADA report. "The UCI has always been the first international sporting federation to embrace new developments in the fight against doping and it regrets that the anti-doping infrastructure that exists today was not available at that time so as to render such evasion impossible.
"The decision explains how riders on the USPS Team showed no inclination to share the full extent of what they knew until they were subpoenaed or called by federal investigators and that their only reason for telling the truth is because the law required them to do so."
UCI stressed that these riders have "confronted their past and told their stories. Their accounts of their past provide a shocking insight into the USPS Team where the expression to 'win at all costs' was redefined in terms of deceit, intimidation, coercion and evasion. Many of the USPS Team riders have already acknowledged that the culture of cycling has now changed and that young riders today are no longer confronted with the same choices to use performance enhancing drugs. They are right to do so."
The UCI said that it has "recognized the problem of doping within the sport and taken significant steps to confront the problem and to clean up cycling. Today's riders are subject to the most innovative and effective anti-doping procedures and regulations in sport. Cycling has been a pioneer in the fight against doping in sport under the leadership of the UCI and this role has been recognized by WADA."
UCI oversees cycling events that include road, track,, mountain biking, cyclo-cross, BMX, indoor cycling and para-cycling.

Nebraska Association for the Gifted
February 23, 2018
The best projects set out to make a dent in the universe. That dent might be big or small, but knowing their projects are making a difference can be great motivation for students to push themselves toward deeper learning. Open-ended projects can give students a venue for using their gifts and talents to solve complex problems or to tackle compelling challenges. Tony Vincent shares strategies for crafting intriguing projects that build upon learners' passions, focus their intensity, and harness the capabilities of technology.
Let students own the task and put their personal spin on it.
Justin Bell's students created a comical version of Romeo and Juliet Act 3. See more of Justin's students' tech projects.
Want to make green screen videos? Check out DoInk Green Screen or Touchcast Studio for iOS.
Create explainer videos with MySimpleShow.com. Educators can contact them for a free account that they can use with up to 50 student accounts.
Ownership in empowering! Having psychological ownership over the project can increase feelings of responsibility, attachment, accountability, and confidence.
The above video was made using Adobe Spark Video (web-based and iPad app).
Psychological Ownership Causes
- control
- intimate knowledge
- time and energy
Psychological Ownership Positive Outcomes
- responsibility
- attachment
- accountability
- confidence
The Ikea Effect is the name for the psychological phenomenon that occurs when consumers place a disproportionately high value on products they partially created. Researchers found that when people use their own labor to construct a particular product, they value it more than if they didn't put any effort into its creation.
Take advantage of the Ikea Effect, and let students create their own media as part of a project. Examples include a butterfly video by kindergarteners, The Respiratory System iBook by a fourth grader, and and one-pagers by middle-schoolers.
Increase ownership by giving students choices in the content of their projects, the process the use to create them, and their end productions' final forms.
"When we choose for ourselves, we are far more committed to the outcome–by a factor of five to one." Harvard Business Review
"If you assign a project and get back 30 of the exact same thing, that's not a project, that's a recipe." Chris Lehmann
It's good to a have choices in the apps students use to create projects because they often disappear, become costly, or drastically change. Keep in mind Adam Bellow's saying: "Date the tool and marry and ability."
Steve Jobs had the mantra, "Let's make a dent in the universe." He was on a mission to change the world. Some of the best projects set out to make a dent. The dent might be big or small, but at least the project has made a difference in the universe, and given students purpose beyond doing the project as just another graded assignment.
Projects can make a difference by...
- educating others
- solving a problem
- calling people to action
- building something useful
- planning an event
- raising money for a purpose
- recognizing or inspiring others
- designing a better way to do something
Jamie Rusynk's 5th graders' video Think Before You Post has an important message. It's done with sticky notes and stop motion.
Stop the Shooting is a Public Service Annoucement made using and iMovie trailer template. Read about how Year 7/8 students created promotional videos for health with the help of iMovie Trailer Planners.
Rushton Hurley makes the observation, "If students are sharing their work with the world, they want it to be good. It you're just sharing it with you, they just want it to be good enough." With websites and social media, students certainly have the ability to reach a potentially global audience. Knowing they can reach people worldwide with their projects, learners will want to make those productions W.O.W. (Worthy of the World).
Second graders at Willowdale Elementary School created an audio podcast about respect. It's one of dozens of episodes that seek to inform an audience on the web and in iTunes. The podcast's tagline is "Radio for Kids, by Kids." Radio WillowWeb used GarageBand for audio recording, but there are lots of alternatives like online-voice-recorder.com, soundation.com, soundtrap.com, and twistedwave.com.
Book and product reviews have an audience–other potential readers and buyers. Consider having students write reviews for Amazon.com.
Each day one student in Tony Vincent's fifth grade is designated at the roving reporter (or class scribe). His or her job is to write about the learning that happens that day. The reporter takes photos throughout the day and selects a few to include with the article. Reviewing photos can also help the reporter decide what to write about. Probably the best way to publish these article are on a blog. Tony didn't have a blog, but he did publish the articles on The Daily Planet.
Create elegant webpages for an audience using Adobe Spark Page or Office Sway (all platforms). Read about Shelli Thele's Revolutionary War project that uses Adobe Slate, and then read Tony's post about this awesome app. Check out this collection of Office Sway projects by students.
Tag Twitter posts with student projects with #comments4kids so that students can get feedback on what they shared. Other hashtags for great ideas are #pblchat and #GTchat.
Help your students find a place in this world by handing over ownership, finding an authentic audience, and making a difference.
Technology can be helpful throughout a project, whether students use iPads, Chromebooks, Android tablets, laptops, or desktops. Tony Vincent has written a primer for each of the three major components of project based learning. He shares useful websites and apps as he tells you about his take on project based learning. They are Crafting Questions That Drive Projects, Investigating Authentic Questions, and Creating Products to Show and Share Learning.
Crafting Questions That Drive Projects
Projects begin with a driving question–an open-ended question that sets the stage for the project by generating interest and curiosity. It captures the heart of the project by providing purpose using clear and compelling language.
Investigating Authentic Questions
In project based learning students answer a driving question. That question is so deep that it leads students to ask more and more questions. I have lots of strategies and tips for investigating answers to those questions.
Creating Products to Show and Share Learning
Let's take a look at sample projects and some of the hottest apps for showing, explaining, and retelling. These tools can turn students into teachers and are great for sharing their answers to a project's driving question.

Pale-billeds at Yaxha
On March 4, many of the participants in The International Birdwatching Encounter in Guatemala were split up into teams for a birding challenge. The team that saw the most bird species during the day would be the winners! There was much kvetching about who would be on what team and where would we go and so forth. It ended up just being another wonderful day of birding in The Peten.
We were bussed to Yaxha, an ancient Maya city much like Tikal, but less developed and excavated. The birding was brilliant. The weather varied between hot and humid, hot and rainy, hot and sunny, and just plain hot.
The day started auspiciously with at first one, then a pair of pale-billed woodpeckers. Although it was foggy, we all took many photos of these members of the genus Campephilus—same genus as the ivory-billed woodpecker.
This image looks like a painting to me.
Though these images aren't top quality, I thought I'd share them. These are special birds. Wish we still had our own Campephilus woodpeckers here in the USA. Who knows, maybe we do?

|Crispy Duck with Pancakes
|Served in virtually every Chinese restaurant in the UK, Crispy Duck is a sociable way of eating with a group of friends or family. The duck is air-dried and then roasted in the oven with a honey and soy glaze and Chinese 5-Spice. This renders the skin crisp while the flesh stays tender. It is then shredded and served with a plum sauce, pancakes and finely sliced matchstick pieces of cucumber and spring onion. Take one of the pancakes from the bamboo steamer, a spoonful of sauce and top with the shredded vegetables and duck. Roll up and crunch it to it, simply delicious!
|Onion Bhaji
|One of the most popular starter or side dishes in Indian restaurants in the UK. Shredded onion is mixed with herbs, spices and flour then deep fried in either flat rosti style cakes, or round balls. Usually served with shredded lettuce, onion, cucumber and tomato and a tray of dips, including cucumber raita, mango and red hot lime pickle.
|Indian, Asian
|Oriental Style Sea Bass with Ginger and Spring Onions
|If you are a fish lover, this is the dish to have. Delicate melting sea bass, served with warming ginger and crunchy spring onions, garlic and soy – truly mouthwatering! Sometimes served on a bed of crisp greens and accompanied by dips, this is often found in Vietnamese restaurants in the UK, but can also be found in higher classed Chinese eateries.
|Chinese, Vietnamese
|Prawn Puri
|This is a curry house classic where small prawns are cooked with a relatively hot sauce including chillis, ginger, curry paste, onions and to lighten it, a little cream. The 'Puri' is the chapatti style flat bread, and the dish is served with the prawn mix on top of the bread.
|Indian, Asian
|Spicy Papaya Salad
|Known as 'Som Tam' this dish originates in the North East of Thailand but its popularity has spread all over the world. Served in both restaurants and from street carts in the UK, it is a sweet, sour and spicy with firm green papaya shredded and combined with chicken and sticky rice. The heat can vary in this dish, so do ask the level of spicing.
|Thai, Asian
|Satays are found in every restaurant in the UK from Asian influences. An assorted platter of chicken, pork and beef satays along with prawn skewers are often served as a starter, or as part of an even bigger platter of mixed starters, situated in the centre of the table for everyone to share. The satays will have a variety of spices and flavours in which they are marinated, and are served with a peanut sauce.
|Singapore, Asian
|Asian Ribs
|Often party of a large platter of mixed starters, Asian Ribs are served two ways. Pork ribs are coated in a seasoned salt, or in a rub of honey, garlic and soy, very much like a barbecue sauce. Also called spare ribs in the UK, they are a very popular starter dish.
|Singapore, Asian
|Chicken Chow Mein
|Probably one of the first Asian dishes to reach the UK, chicken chow mein is served everywhere from noodle bars to Chinese restaurants and street carts. Noodles can be steamed or stir fried until crisp, and are mixed with vegetable such as beanshoots, pak choi, carrots, celery, Chinese mushroom and as a spice, star anise. Chicken is the most popular addition, but beef, pork and seafood are also often used. A very economical dish, and very filling.
|Chinese, Noodles
|Chow Mein
|Chow Mein, a noodle based dish is eaten throughout the Asian continent, particularly in China, Malaysia and Singapore. Chicken Chow Mein is the most popular, consisting of poached and aromatic tender chicken and thin noodles, which are pan fried with star anise and a little garlic. Other versions include peppers, onions, bean sprouts and also Chinese cabbage to make it a complete dish in one bowl. Prevalent on menus in the UK, nearly every restaurant will sell chow mein, whether with chicken, beef or prawns.
|Chinese, Malaysian, Singapore
|Wan Fu
|An inexpensive light white wine, similar to Sauvignon Blanc, served in Chinese and other South East Asian restaurants. Not very 'grapey', more 'citrussy' - refreshing to drink with a medium curry and often served as a spritzer with lots of ice.

|Mango Lassi
|Served in all Asian restaurants, it is probably their 'signature smoothie' type of drink. Fresh mangoes with yoghurt and light spices poured over ice – absolutely delicious and refreshing to the palate and takes away any heat from spicy food still burning your tongue!
|Tsingtao is the most popular Chinese beer both in China and in the UK. Best served with spicy food, it is crisp and refreshing when ice cold. It has a nutty, sweet taste and is a perfect accompaniment to Chinese dishes. It is a lager style beer and a modest 4.8% alcohol.
|Jasmine Tea
|Famous Chinese tea brew, deeply aromatic and usually served at the end of a meal with great ceremony. Always served with a teapot and cup, often on a bamboo mat. The unique flavour and aroma is caused by the jasmine blossom fragrance being absorbed into the tea during growth. Subtlely sweet, is is renowned throughout the world.

Reasons for Designation
Prehistoric rock art is found on natural rock outcrops in many areas of upland
Britain. It is especially common in the north of England in Northumberland,
Durham and North and West Yorkshire. The most common form of decoration is the
`cup and ring' marking where expanses of small cup-like hollows are pecked
into the surface of the rock. These cups may be surrounded by one or more
`rings'. Single pecked lines extending from the cup through the `rings' may
also exist, providing the design with a `tail'. Other shapes and patterns also
occur, but are less frequent. Carvings may occur singly, in small groups, or
may cover extensive areas of rock surface. They date to the Late Neolithic and
Bronze Age periods (2800-c.500 BC) and provide one of our most important
insights into prehistoric `art'. The exact meaning of the designs remains
unknown, but they may be interpreted as sacred or religious symbols.
Frequently they are found close to contemporary burial monuments and the
symbols are also found on portable stones placed directly next to burials or
incorporated in burial mounds. Around 800 examples of prehistoric rock-art
have been recorded in England. This is unlikely to be a realistic reflection
of the number carved in prehistory. Many will have been overgrown or destroyed
in activities such as quarrying. All positively identified prehistoric rock
art sites exhibiting a significant group of designs will normally be
identified as nationally important.
The carving on this rock survives well and it forms one of several in an important outlying group to the north west of the denser concentrations of carved rocks on Rombalds Moor.
The monument includes a carved gritstone rock, partly covered by turf. The
visible part measures 1.3m by 1.3m by 0.5m. It is situated on Horse Close
Hill, in the west half of a field, south west of Great Wood Plantation. The
rock is in the approximate centre of a pile of stones, which is mostly
composed of modern clearance material. An accurate National Grid Reference is
The carving consists of at least 15 cups, two of them possibly joined by a
short groove.

Welcome to Unholy Darkness, a complete vampire overhaul for Oblivion. I spent over a year making this mod, slaving away late at night, weekends and my spare time. My main goal for this mod for the player to actually feel like a vampire, and to experience many thrills exporing the deep dark secrets of the vampire underworld as they discover the powers of their new unlife. It is a dark curse, and so it should feel like one. There are some disadvantages to being a vampire, but also great powers no mortal could ever experience. I want to thank GURUSR for his scripting, Sinblood for his artwork, and the community for their help and undying support, and encouragement. Also for many great ideas which came up along the way.
