Excavating Machines Turn Jenga Into Epic Adventure
If you've ever wanted to see Jenga supersized, your wish has come true.
Check out this wild game called Stack, which, according to the description:
...pits five Cat machines, including Excavators and Telehandlers, against a mountain of massive wood blocks. The object of the game is for heavy equipment operators to remove and then reposition a stack of 27 blocks one at a time, without toppling the structure -- using only their Cat machines and attachments."
It's pretty cool and maybe it will catch on. We'd love to a game of chess played on a board featuring nothing but excavators, tractors and dump trucks.

With the Alter/Lo/Komaroff paper on ME/CFS & MLV-like retroviruses finally published, the time is right for patients to strike while the media attention is hot.
To test 'the Power of One', Rivka, a 20-year ME/CFS patient, went to DC with her mom riding shotgun to get some attention for the need to increase government research funding. And – filmed standing with placards in front of the Health & Human Services and American Red Cross buildings – she did.
Now others around the world, from Chicago to Germany to Australia, tell her they're casting aside their fear of ridicule and standing proud to advertise that, yes, this illness is real, and requires serious attention.
Following is Rivka's description of her mini-protest, plus the text of her message, which anyone can share, or tailor for themselves to inform their own target organizations.
Dear Everyone Who Cares About People With ME/CFS:
I just held my one-woman demonstration at the American Red Cross national headquarters in Washington, DC (Red Cross collects 45% of all blood donations in this country) and at the national headquarters of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and it was a success.
On the first day of our protests, August 13, 2010, our first stop was the Red Cross headquarters.
Lots of security showed up within minutes of me being there, but I simply educated them about XMRV. :- )
This is how it went: My mom and sister (respectively the videographer and designated driver) started videotaping me standing in front of the front door while people were walking in and out of the building.
A security guard walked up to me within two minutes and said I could not videotape and hold my signs there. I said "What about over there?" pointing to the sidewalk, not five feet away, but still in front of the door. She said she could not stop me from doing that. So I stepped five feet forward and proceeded with my sign holding and talking into the video camera.
Her supervisor showed up a few minutes later and spent all of his time on a cell phone describing to someone else what I was doing. I stopped the videotaping and turned around to ask him, "Who are you talking to?" He told me he was talking to his director. (The director of what, I wondered.) So I asked if he wanted me to talk to the director and tell him/her why I was there, protesting. "No," was the answer.
So I said, "Do you want me to tell YOU why I'm here? Would you like to see my signs?" (Who wouldn't? They are so colorful!) "Yes," he said.
So I told him about how long I've been sick (20 years) with CFS and how, finally, medical researchers may have found the potential cause of my illness, a new retrovirus called XMRV [one type of MLV-related retrovirus], and that it may already be in the nation's blood supply infecting new people who get blood transfusions.
I told him how I was there to ask the National Director of the Red Cross to check the blood supply for this retrovirus.
As this went on, lots of people were walking by and many slowed down to read my signs.
Both the security guard supervisor and the original security guard seemed genuinely interested, and the supervisor relayed all this info to his superior via his cell phone. Now done, I went back to my protest and holding of signs for my mom who was still at the video camera.
A few minutes later, I noticed an older man in a more professional suit-type of uniform watching me from another door. In fact, I now saw that there were a total of four security guards hanging around at different spots along the block.
I asked the suited man if he was security. He did not reply. I asked again, and he mumbled something. So I asked if he wanted to know why I was there, and when he said yes, I shared my story all over again, asking him, too, to tell the Red Cross Executive Director that I was there with my signs to ask for the nation's blood supply to be checked for the new retrovirus XMRV, and to screen all donations for this virus, and that I did not want anyone else to get sick like I have been for so many years.
After I was done, the older suited man, an African American, said, "Like Arthur Ashe."
"Who?" I said.
"Arthur Ashe, the tennis player," he repeated. "He got HIV from a blood transfusion and died of AIDS," he said.
"Arthur Ashe!" I suddenly recalled the African American international tennis superstar and racial barrier breaker.
"Yes, exactly!" Then the security director for the Red Cross (anyway, that is who I think he was) wrote down "XMRV" on a piece of paper so that he would remember the exact name to tell the head of the Red Cross, and we said goodbye.
I finished up my videotaping and my mom and I moved on to the national headquarters of Health and Human Services, a few miles away.
There, it was a different story. This huge building is across the street, literally, from the U.S. Capitol Building. We were going to shoot the video by the HHS sign near the street, on the sidewalk, but it started to rain, so we ran to the building's front door and under the cement overhang.
Subscribe to the World's Most Popular Newsletter (it's free!)
Security was super tight. We were there for about half a minute, getting in place for the shoot, when a security guard said we had to stop. I asked why. She called her superior and about three guys showed up. The head honcho told us we could not shoot the video if the camera was facing the HHS building (and what was the point of shooting the video there if it wasn't?). We were told to move. Period. We did. Nothing. We got nothing on video.
That night, reviewing the less than perfect Red Cross video made it clear we needed to go back.
We decided to consider that day's efforts a practice run. So we drove back the next day, a Saturday, and we shot it all, all over again – this time in front of the HHS sign by the street and back in front of the Red Cross. No problem. After all, we were on the sidewalks this time. All legal.
My reason for doing these demonstrations – my goal – is to inspire other one-person demonstrations around the globe.
Larger demonstrations are too hard to organize, and so many of us can only go out on a random day that we feel strong enough. So in my mind, these mini-protests are a good idea. If we can have dozens of these around the globe – and get media attention for it – we may be able to impact the political situation that has dictated our lives for so long.
Hold your own mini-protest in front of your town hall, government offices, and blood banks. Let's cause some waves, get some press attention, and get some clinical trials and funding for ME/CFS and XMRV research.
FOR THOSE WHO CAN NOT LEAVE THE HOUSE TO PROTEST (and there are many of us):
Please consider emailing HHS Director Sebelius the note I wrote to her asking her to increase funding for ME/CFS/XMRV research and clinical trials. She is reachable here:
With hope for our future,
Rivka (at) ThatTakesOvaries.org
The Statements Rivka Reads in Her Video:
Message to fellow patients, and Message to Kathleen Sebelius
People with ME/CFS:
It has long been a tradition of our democracy that when a people feel their needs and concerns are not being heard by their government they will demonstrate and protest.
This is a tried and true tradition of any democracy.
If we can have hundreds of these mini-protests, like mine (of one, two or five people), happening around the country and globe, in front of our government offices and our blood donation centers and blood banks, we may cause some waves, get some press attention, and get some clinical trials and funding for ME/CFS and XMRV research.
Remember, protests and demonstrations – holding up a sign in a public place stating your views – are part of the democratic process. Let your voice be heard!
Message to Kathleen Sebelius
Dear Health and Human Services Director, Kathleen Sebelius:
I have spend way too much of the past 20 years bedridden and homebound with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, an illness with a belittling name for a disability so severe.
According to the Centers for Disease Control there are 1 to 4 million Americans like me, all sick with ME/CFS.
Every year of the past 20 years, I hoped and hoped that my government would do what a government is supposed to do, and help its people – help me. But every year I am deeply disappointed.
The National Institutes of Health, the NIH, invests $31 billion annually in medical research for the American people. But of that $31 billion, in 2009 CFS research got $5 million – about the same as what the NIH dedicates to Hay Fever, and about one-third of what is dedicated to Psoriasis.
Now, with a newly discovered retrovirus called XMRV that is linked to -and perhaps the cause of – CFS, we have an even greater reason to stop ignoring the 1 to 4 million Americans who are so sick, so desperate, and so in need of help.
Director Sebelius, please dedicate more money to researching CFS and the retrovirus XMRV. Dedicate more money to clinical trials so we can find treatments. And protect the Americans who have yet to get XMRV from blood transfusions, because this retrovirus is surely already contaminating the nation's blood supply.
Please help us.
(And here is a video with a message for you, Director Sebelius http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ME764z_4vEY)

"After I returned home (from Reds Fantasy Camp), the question I heard the most was, "What was it like"? To describe Reds Fantasy Camp best for me is to say I was playing baseball with 100 of my closest friends for a week. Even though I did not know anybody at Fantasy Camp before attending, I now feel like the people I met were (at Camp) and are now lifelong friends. I thought the one camper's wife best expressed her husband's experience as a 12-year-old describing his first baseball game - this was exactly how I felt."
Jim Kronenberger
"As a "rookie" camper and lifelong Reds fan, I cannot express my gratitude for my experience at Reds Fantasy Camp. Growing up, most boys have the ambition to play alongside the guys that they watch play the game and admire. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I would have the chance. Thanks to the Reds organization, my dream came true. The Reds should be commended for such an organized Fantasy Camp experience. There was never a hiccup during the week. The one-on-one experience with the pros goes beyond any expression. They were professional, personable and friendly. It was truly a dream come true."
Joe Mangas
"I have been to over 40 Camps with a number of teams and you guys run the best camp I have been to. It is the best quality baseball and I will keep coming back as long as I am physically able to participate. Thanks for helping to keep me "young"."
Karl Gittleman
"I really don't know how to thank you for EVERYTHING!! I had such big expectations before Reds Fantasy Camp and it way over exceeded what I thought. The former players were so very kind and it was really cool bonding with my teammates. My two coaches were awesome (Tom Browning & Ken Griffey, Sr.). Griffey changed my whole perspective on the game. You could have said that instead of a signed Griffey, Sr. jersey I had to take a signed roll of toilet paper home and I would have been fine with that. I cannot wait to do it again next year and every year after."

text: Game Informer - Call of Duty 2 kicked off this console generation when it released alongside the Xbox 360, and the series has been an annual juggernaut ever since. This sustained popularity has put the series in a tough spot creatively, as drastic changes to the formula might turn off longtime fans. With the first Black Ops, Treyarch demonstrated it was willing to take risks by shaking up numerous multiplayer conventions. Fans loved the new features, and the developer has shifted its focus to campaign changes for Black Ops II. Some of these risks pay off, and others are faulty despite their ambition.

After months of preparation, and in spite of one of the saddest days in the history of our state, Gateway Community College (GCC) went forward with plans December 14 to host the 15th annual Neighbors in Need holiday dinner. The new GCC campus was turned into a winter wonderland for more than 600 men, women and children from 15 shelters throughout the area, making this Greater New Haven's largest holiday party of its kind.
Guests enjoyed a delicious buffet prepared by a team of faculty, staff and students with food provided by Elm City Market, Claire's Corner Copia, and Chabaso bakery. Children enjoyed gifts from Santa and Mrs. Claus, face painting and holiday films. Teens received gift cards and parents selected new coats for the family, and bags of personal sundries.
GCC President Dorsey L. Kendrick greeted guests with a big smile as they entered the festively decorated community room. "I look forward to this event every year," said Dr. Kendrick. "All the preparation and effort that the college community brings is exactly what makes us an extended family. Even as we all mourn today's horrific loss, they remain committed to providing some seasonal joy for others."
Claire Criscuolo, owner of Claire's Corner Copia, concurred. "People do so much to make this night a success… I had to help. It's a wonderful evening and I wanted to be here to do whatever I could."
Joining Claire on kitchen duty was Nino Ribeiro, owner of Galaxy Hair Salon. Maria Ojeda, a GCC culinary graduate now working at Viking Kitchens, said she simply had to come back to cook for the Holiday Dinner. She and student chefs Mel Kounnavong, Hannah Consiglio and Liz White had been making chicken and ziti and sauce since noon.
"I came tonight because I am grateful to Gateway and the least I could do is give back," Ojeda said. "Everything I have is because of this school, these teachers. I have another family here."
GCC Registrar Maribel Lopez and student volunteers Nelly Rios and Jennifer Rivera were busy painting ornate snowflakes and glitter tattoos on tiny hands and faces. "Our students work so hard on this every year," said Lopez. "We love this night because it means so much to the children."
GCC students Britzia Suarez and Aaron Phu spent three hours Friday afternoon popping popcorn and the aroma wafted all across the building. "We're making 500 boxes," Phu said. "It's really fun."
"We're here for the satisfaction of being able to help someone else," Suarez said.
GCC's annual holiday dinner has grown considerably over the years. Just four years ago, about 400 guests were served. Preparations begin in early fall with more than 200 faculty/staff volunteer hours, and more than 90 student volunteer hours leading up to the Holiday Dinner.
"It was a wonderful event," said Susan Swirsky of GCC's department of Development and Community Partnerships, who co-chaired the event. "This is our fifteenth year hosting the event and it happens each year because of the overwhelming generosity of so many people and local businesses. It's our Gateway Community reaching out to the Greater New Haven community."
The Neighbors in Need annual dinner is supported entirely by donations in the form of cash, toys, sundries and winter coats from the college community, and local organizations and businesses who respond generously to requests for support. Among these, are DATTCO Bus Company, who donated busses and drivers to transport shelter residents to and from the college, Chabaso Bakery, the Omni Hotel, Elm City Market and Claire's Corner Copia.

Tiger Shark and Felix - Photo by Manuel Lazcano
Manuel Lazcano caught a great sequence: a Tiger shark dancing with me. Actually, I think she was interested in my camera - this was not the only instance of a tiger shark coming at my video camera. I had never seen a tiger shark come vertically up the way she did.
Of course this was not an aggressive behavior or a quick motion. She came up very slow and by gently hold out my camera I was able to move her to the side.
You can see the whole series here: OceanicDreams Flickr
On a separate day, a different and much larger shark decided to take my camera at the surface, tape was rolling - I will post the video later this week.

We introduced you to the new Heroes webisodes on Monday, and now an executive producer of NBC's superhuman drama is talking about their historic significance while also answering critics who may have wanted more visual bang for their buck.
Jeph Loeb, whose resume also includes stints on Lost, Smallville and a pretty impressive career as a comic book writer, talked about the special Summer series on the WordBalloon
There's kind of a historical importance, if I'm not putting too much importance on it, in the sense that, like I said, these are the first [Writers] Guild-sanctioned [web] episodes, which kind of allow for... You know, if you believe that members of the Writers Guild have a higher quality of writing than somebody who isn't, that's an opportunity to see what you can do if you let the big boys come in and play... They do have a historical precedence to them. You're looking at the future. And even if you look at it and go, "Well, you know, it doesn't have the big glory of a television show". Yeah, guess what? It is a baby step towards that, and I think they're terrific. Everyone involved did an amazing, amazing job on very little to make it with... It's like a small independent film when Heroes the show is, like, this $100 million blockbuster.
Not that they don't have any value beyond historic importance to the industry, mind you:
They're very clever pieces that you can watch over and over and over again, and will tie into our mythology, as people will see. Everything does, in the same kind of way that the comics do. But [they] will also give you an opportunity to kind of tool around in the NBC.com area that's designed for Heroes, because that way, you'll get to see the comics, and you'll get to see interviews with people.
They tie into the mythology the same way as the comics do? So, either hardly at all, or else giving you backstory that you didn't really need to know nor care about, then.

The Sullivan-Clinton Campaign of 1779 was the largest expedition ever before mounted against the Indians of North America. Its 225th anniversary happened only yesterday. This year, the 231st anniversary of the American Revolution, it is more relevant than ever...

The Sullivan-Clinton Campaign was the largest expedition ever before mounted against native North Americans. It targeted the Iroquois Six Nations Confederacy: specifically, the Seneca, Cayuga and Onondaga nations. Indeed, the Fall of Iroquoia is forever entwined with the Birth of the American Republic.
The year was 1779. In the middle of the American Revolution, George Washington ordered two Generals, John Sullivan and James Clinton, and more than 6,200 men roughly 25% of the entire rebel army to clear-cut and burn these resisting or then neutral Iroquois nations from one of Earths most fertile regions. They should not merely be overrun," Washington insisted, but destroyed. And England, for its part, couldn't and/or wouldn't send forces enough to defend its Indian allies' homelands against the Sullivan-Clinton Campaign.
After five days in April and four weeks in September, almost all of Iroquoia was reduced to shattered hearths and fields of fire. According to Sullivans Official Report, the army burned 40 towns and their surrounding fields; consuming at least 160,000 bushels of corn, with a vast quantity of vegetables of every kind. A study (1969) by Anthony Wallace concluded that the Campaign destroyed 500 dwellings and nearly 1 million bushels of corn. Drawing on extensive records, a history (1978) by Allan Eckert estimated at least 50 towns and nearly 1,200 houses were burned. All this before the worst winter in recorded memory.
While these figures vary, all show an earth-shaking defeat for Americas native peoples that cannot truly be expressed in numbers; one that still lingers today - often hidden in plain sight or deep in people's souls. Against this background, a hard-won foothold in NY and Rebirth of Iroquoia have been well underway...

The Expedition you are appointed to command is to be directed against the hostile tribes of the Six Nations of Indians, with their associates and adherents. The immediate objects are the total destruction and devastation of their settlements, and the capture of as many prisoners of every age and sex as possible. It will be essential to ruin their crops now in the ground and prevent their planting more.
I would recommend, that some post in the center of the Indian Country, should be occupied with all expedition, with a sufficient quantity of provisions whence parties should be detached to lay waste all the settlements around, with instructions to do it in the most effectual manner, that the country may not be merely overrun, but destroyed.
Orders of George Washington
to General John Sullivan
At Head-Quarters
May 31, 1779
They make solitude, which they call peace - Tacitus
We moved, on the next day, to Chinesee, crossing in our path a deep creek and the Little Seneca river, and after marching six miles we reached the castle, which consisted of 128 houses, mostly very large and elegant. The town was beautifully situated, almost encircled with a clear flat which extends for a number of miles, where the most extensive fields of corn were, and every kind of vegetable that can be conceived. The whole army was immediately engaged in destroying the crops. The corn was collected and burned in houses and kilns, that the enemy might not reap the least advantage from it, which method we have pursued in every other place... Every creek and river has been traced, and the whole country explored in search of Indian settlements; and I am well persuaded, that, except one... there is not a single town left in the country of the five nations.
General John Sullivan
Report to Congress
Tioga, New York, September 30, 1779
When your army entered the country of the Six Nations, we called you Town Destroyer: and to this day when that name is heard our women look behind them and turn pale, and our children cling close to the necks of their mothers. Our counsellors and warriors are men, and cannot be afraid; but their hearts are grieved with the fears of our women and children, and desire that it may be buried so deep as to be heard no more.
Seneca Chief Cornplanter
To George Washington
The immediate purpose was to give protection to the defenseless frontier settlements. This was to be accomplished by destroying the Indian villages and sources of food supply, and by driving the Indians westward and northward.
A second objective was to cut off the food supply of corn and dried vegetables and fruits, which had been going from the Indians to the Loyalists and British for waging the war.
A third part of the plan was to capture the strong forts at Oswego and Niagara which were storehouses of the enemy and bases for military operations.
The most important objective has been entirely overlooked by most historians... Washington and other leaders saw that independence with a mere fringe of land along the seacoast would scarcely be worth the cost of the struggle if the rest of the continent to the westward and northward remained in the hands of the motherland. Washington knew by actual experience the potential wealth of the fertile regions of the interior of the continent. He realized that when the time came to discuss terms of peace that rich area could be secured for the young nation only if it was in possession of the Americans.
Hence in The Sullivan Clinton Expedition an inland empire was the stake for which Washington was playing and not merely the punishment of dusky foes on our border.
Alexander C. Flick
Historian of the State of New York

with every hour and every mile which separates me from you.

After this transaction, the voice of the birds from every quarter cried out:
"You have lost your country. You have lost you country. You've lost your
country! You have acted unwisely and done wrong." And what increased the
alarm was that the birds who made this cry were white birds.

All of these things are a gift provided by the Creator for our needs. That everything we need has been provided here, but we have to treat it in a manner that is respectful, so we don't use it all up in our lifetime. Because there are faces that are young, or just born -- those who are coming. And theyre going to need what we have enjoyed here. So our job is to take care of it while were here. Not to destroy it, but to hand it on to the next generations. Were only stewards of it while were all alive. Whereas the other view is "Im going to get everything that I need now for my family and my needs. So Ill become better than I was, have more than Ive ever had. Ill become rich basically." Money is driving this thinking. And then it asks: "What is the obstacle to my efforts to become this way?" The answer: "Its these people [the Haudenosaunee/Seneca] that are living here."
G. Peter Jemison
Seneca Artist & Spokesman
Ganondagan, 2003
I would like to explain to you why we have the right and the desire to return to our native land here in New York
Each tribe here represented today has a similar story to tell regarding what happened during the Revolutionary War years and immediately thereafter. Scattered to the winds, literally struggling to survive and find food on a daily and weekly basis The history surrounding what they had to go through makes me shocked and dismayed that now, when were litigating, and we have successfully litigated at least a portion of our land claim, the states saying the Cayugas voluntarily left the state of New York. I wonder what the states definition of voluntarily means. Imagine yourself, if anyone here has small children I have 5-year old and a 2-year old if your children were starving, what would you do to save them?
Would you walk 100 miles? Would you walk 300 miles? And I think clearly the answer is yes, and thats what many of our people did.

What makes it especially frightening is that whole communities have been annihilated. We've known for years now that the emotional devastation that survivors feel and experience is often greater than the physical devastation.

Whole Indian nations have melted away like snowballs in the sun before the white man's advance. They leave scarcely a name of our people except those wrongly recorded by their destroyers... Finally the whole country, which the Cherokees and their fathers have so long occupied, will be demanded, and the remnant of Ani-Yunwiya, THE REAL PEOPLE, once so great and formidable, will be compelled to seek refuge in some distant wilderness. There they will be permitted to stay only a short while, until they again behold the advancing banners of the same greedy host. Not being able to point out any further retreat for the miserable Cherokees, the extinction of the whole race will be proclaimed. Should we not therefore run all risks, and incur all consequences, rather than submit to further loss of our country? Such treaties may be alright for men who are too old to hunt or fight. As for me, I have my young warriors about me. We will have our lands. A-WANINSKI, I have spoken.

After-Dinner Toasts by Sullivan's Officers
Journal of Major James Norris

Clearly, NY's taking of millions of acres of Haudenosaunee land in 1788 was based upon the devastation of the Van Schaick April 1779 raid on Onondaga and the September Sullivan/Clinton scorched earth raids on the Cayuga and Seneca villages. New York exploited the fact that many Haudenosaunee people and some Chiefs had fled their homelands to live near the British "protection" near Ft. Niagara. The state went between the two groups and played one off against each other and they further exploited the hunger that the raid had caused.

Total land holdings for the Iroquois in 1995 are about 86,716 acres remaining from the original 25,000,000 or .034% of what we once had.

How Much Land Did the Iroquois Possess?

During the twenty years from the beginning of the American Revolution to the Treaty of Big Tree [T]he net effect was to reduce the Iroquois population approximately by half.

The dual process of dispossessing Indians and creating private property constructed the state of New York, the United States, and the British Empire in Canada... From 1790 to 1820, NYs population quadrupled from 370,000 to 1,373,000

Pulitzer Prize Historian
The Divided Ground
The forest which covers it, consisting chiefly [of] trees that live in excessive moisture, is now decayed and death struck, by the partial draining of the swamp into the great ditch of the canal. ...In spots, where destruction had been riotous, the lanterns showed perhaps a hundred trunks, erect, half overthrown, extended along the ground, resting on their shattered limbs, or tossing them desperately into the darkness, but all of one ashey-white, all naked together, in desolate confusion...The scene was ghost-like -- the very land of unsubstantial things, whither dreams might betake themselves, when they quit the slumberer's brain.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
The Canal Boat
A Description of the Erie Canal
December 1835
Indeed to see a forest tree, which had withstood the elements till it attained maturity, torn up by its roots, and bending itself to the earth, in obedience to the command of man, is a spectacle that must awaken feelings of gratitutde to that Being, who has bestowed on his creatures so much power and wisdom.

When we look at historical accuracy, we look at history as it plays in the service of a narrative, said Sam Martin, a vice president at HBO Films in charge of production on the project. "HBO has at times gone the opposite route; last year it publicized the pains it took to ensure the factual accuracy of its Emmy-winning miniseries Elizabeth I.

"I love these woods. They're alive to me. The woods have life of their own. From the smallest insect to the largest moose. Everything has a function. It is all here for a purpose. All of them are necessary."
"People, they try to play God, and every time they do, they make a terrible mistake."
"Indians didn't worship trees. They talked to trees, they respected this form of life. The Christian, the European mentality couldn't understand that. To them trees, plants, animals even whole mountains had no significance...all of that is believed to below the human... boy, what craziness."
"Man was created in the image of God. Boy, if I were God I would be insulted. With all the destruction they have caused. How arrogant!"
"See that little bumblebee? That one is more important to the Creation than the President of the United States."
"The white man has invented an Indian in his own image: unforgiving, vindictive, treacherous. The Indian is none of these things and never was."
"The minute they landed on Plymouth Rock, they skinned our Mother Earth like you skin a muskrat, without one thought of the future."
"I wouldn't hesitate to bet my life on it any day, that White people in this country, whether they realize it or not, are actually living more the way the Indians lived at the time of Columbus, thinking and governing themselves the way the Indians did at the time of Columbus, eating foods that Indians ate at the time of Columbus, than the Indians living the way the White man did at the time of Columbus."
"...if Sokwaiatison (Creator) ever took away the many gifts of the American Indians to the world, believe-you-me, this civilization we live in today would crumble, and crumble mighty fast."

my list of new holiday running gear that i covet is starting to sound a lot like "this is the house that jack built" (you know that children's ditty where you add on another item to your list with each go-round).
to go with the pro compression socks i showed you the other day…
…please, please, santa bring me the holiday sweater long sleeve tech shirt!!
^^ here, the shirt is modeled by runner's world celeb, bart yasso. i first saw this fabulous xmas tech item here on the rw website on friday. how GREAT would it be to run in this shirt…(i'll show you another view…)
or, for doing a tready run, how about this santa tank?
[might have to scoot by and pick that up today, before they are all gone…].
just for laughs, i also would wear this tank to a race in say, june! hey, christmas is in our hearts year-round, right?!
i think the winning fashion item of the season is still the jamie oliver pullover – perfect for après-run knitting/movie time!
have you bought any new festive attire (running or normal-wear) this year? my stuff never wears out! i've got a sweater, two sweatshirts and two turtlenecks that are at least fifteen years old. because the pieces see the light of day one month per year, they will likely last another fifteen years!
i feel a lot of sadness as i reflect on the tragic shootings that occurred in newtown. i can't comprehend the pain the families are feeling…what a senseless act of violence. i guess all we can do is send supportive thoughts and prayers to everyone affected and hug our own loved ones at every opportunity.

We bring to you the FinePix F80EXR, Fuji's latest compact super-zoom. Using a powerful Fujinon 10x zoom lens, Fijifilm claims that no matter what the setting, the lens depicts what the eye sees. Enabled with Super CCD EXR, a 3 stage sensor employing Fine Capture (high resolution), Pixel Fusion (High Sensitivity & Low Noise), Dual Capture (Wide Dynamic Range) technologies for superior picture quality. The F80EXR boasts 12- megapixels of resolution for large size prints. The high contrast 3.0-inch LCD gives you a nice large viewing area for framing your shots and playing them back. Keeping the images sharp is aided by Fujifilm's Dual Image Stabilization, which brings together FinePix sensitivity to stabilize motion blur and CCD-Shift image stabilization compensates for camera shake.
The F80EXR also offers industry standards such as facial recognition, face detection and a plethora of scene modes including some new artistic modes. They up the ante by adding facial recognition for dogs and cats as well as a face registration system where you can enter names and information for up to 8 faces. When the camera recognizes any of the registered faces it will set focus and aperture priorities for them. All of this housed in a sleek compact body that will slip conveniently in a pocket or small purse to be taken anywhere. The F80EXR is available in Red, Black, Pink or Silver and sells for between $270.00 and $300.00 at our partner sites.

Super CCD EXR Auto is comprised of a color filter array and image processing technology to provide better image quality. The 35mm equivalent of the lens is 27 – 270mm.
Focal Distance:
Wide: Approx. 45cm / 1.5ft. to infinity
Telephoto: Approx. 2m / 6.6ft. to infinity
Wide: Approx. 5cm – 2.5m / 2.0in.- 8.2ft.

The Flash has a whopping 10 settings whic include: Red-eye removal OFF: Auto, Forced Flash, Suppressed Flash, Slow Synchro. Red-eye removal ON: Red-eye Reduction Auto, Red-eye Reduction & Forced Flash, Suppressed Flash, Red-eye Reduction & Slow Synchro.
The flash range is:
Wide: Approx. 30cm – 4.2m / 1.0 ft. -13.8 ft.
Telephoto: Approx. 90cm – 2.4m / 3.0ft. – 7.9 ft.
Controls for the F80ERX are located both on the top of the camera and the back. On top are the power buttons and the shutter release. Wrapped around the shutter release is the control for the zoom.
on the back of the camera the controls are all located on the right side of the camera. At the top is the mode selector dial which is used to select the shooting mode for the camera. Below that are the playback and "F" mode menu buttons. The Playback button allows for viewing of the images stored on the media card. The "F" mode allows you to change values such as ISO and image size as well as activate the film simulation filters. The 4-way dial accesses the macro mode, flash settings and timer. When the camera is in playback mode pressing the top of the 4-way dial will delete unwanted images. In the center if the 4-way dial is the Menu/OK button. Pressing this will open the cameras menus where, depending on the mode your in, numerous camera functions can be changed. It is also used to confirm changes as well. Last we have the DISPlay button which changes what information is shown on the LCD. And last is the Intelligent Face Detection button which allows the camera to detect and set focus priority to faces and not backgrounds.
The F80EXR has two external ports on the side of the camera. The top port is for connecting the camera to an AV cable for viewing pictures on a television, and for plugging a USB cable in for plugging into a computer or PictBridge compatible printer. the bottom port is for an HDMI cable for use with High Definition Devices (playback only).
SD and SDHC memory cards are the preferred memory storage cards used in the camera. Shown here is Lexar's Professional SDHC 8GB card. Both Still images and movies can be stored on these, how many depends on the size of the card.
The F80EXR is powered by a 3.6v 1000mAh rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. The charger which is included with the camera will plug into any standard wall outlet. The battery should be able to shoot 230 images according to Fujifilm's web site.
Auto mode allows the camera to select functions of the camera while still allowing the user to customize some of the functions as well. In the screen capture above we see it is in Auto mode and has selected values for High Sensitivity and Low Noise as indicated by the SN logo.
EXR mode combines the full use of Fuji's new Super CCD EXR imaging sensor and processor to create images that are more realistic than ever before. This mode combines one of three specific sensor modes (shown below) with one of the cameras scene modes for the best images possible
Fuji's EXR shooting modes consist of Resolution Priority for the most detailed images possible, High ISO and Low Noise for the least amount of noise at Higher ISO settings (for low-light situations) and D-Range Priority for capturing images that have extreme light and dark areas.
Program mode is another automatic shooting mode that gives the user a little more control. Options like metering, ISO and white balance are at the users disposal. Aperture and Shutter Speed are still chosen by the camera.
Pressing the shutter release halfway initiates the AF and AE systems, allowing the camera to focus on you subject and determine the shooting settings. When these processes complete, you will see the screen above, if one of them fails, either the focus frame or the numbers will turn red.
In Manual Mode the user has complete control over the settings of the camera allowing for the most customization of all the shooting modes.
Above is an animation of the different shooting mode options which include: EXR Auto, Program, manual, Movie, Pro Focus, Natural Light, Natural Light + Flash and Auto.
When using Auto, EXR or SP modes, either you or the camera will have access to the various pre-set scene modes. These include: Pro-Focus, Pro Low-Light, Portrait, Portrait Enhancer, Dog, Cat, Landscape, Sport, Night, Night (tripod), Fireworks, Sunset, Snow, Beach, Underwater (with optional waterproof case), Party, Flower and Text.
The "F" button or function shortcut takes you directly to some of the more commonly changed settings of the camera. Here you can see the ISO settings, Image Size and Film Simulation modes.
Also providing you with some shortcuts is the 4-way controller. Pressing it "UP" allows you to adjust the Exposure Compensation (not pictured), "RIGHT" changes the flash mode, "DOWN" sets the Self-Timer and "LEFT" enters Macro mode.

Fujifilm has made setting the face detection incredibly easy, just the touch of a button in fact. pressing the Face Detection button on the back of the camera brings up this screen quickly and allows you to get that picture before the natives get restless.
The F80 EXR allows you to capture video with sound at resolutions of HD1280 or a standard definition of 640. Unlike most compact digicams, the F80 EXR also allows you to use the full 10x optical zoom while recording your video, but the internal microphone picks up the sound and it will overpower any other noise or dialogue.
When the camera is in movie mode and the "F" button is pressed you will be able to quickly choose your shooting format whether you want full High Definition 740×1280 or a smaller file size like 640×480 which would be better for transferring over the internet.
Pressing the PLAY button enters the camera into playback mode.Here you can look through the pictures you've taken. When you press the DISP button you can choose from having information displayed or clearing the screen of information and just view the pictures.
The zoom control allows you to scroll through all the stored images quickly. By pressing the toggle toward the Wide view, the pictures are indexed for quicker navigating.
Pressing the toggle to the telephoto side, allows you to zoom in on an image. The camera allows you to zoom in multiple steps, which is great for checking focus, composition, facial expressions, etc.

Building on the success of the F70EXR from last year, FujiFilm has released their F80EXR. This new FinePix model carries over most of the advanced options found on the F70EXR, like a powerful 10x optical zoom lens, Real Photo Processor EXR, Pro Low Light and Pro Focus mode, a Super CCD EXR image sensor, EXR intelligent auto shooting mode, etc. The F80EXR has been upgraded with more resolution at 12-megapixels, a larger 3.0-inch LCD, Dual Image stabilization (high ISO and sensor-shift IS), HD video recording at 720p resolution and Dog/Cat Detection. That's right, the camera will now find and lock focus and exposure on your furry friends.
One of the benefits of their newer EXR processor is the Multi-frame technology, which captures several frames at once that will then be aligned and combined in-camera into a single image. Along with these more advanced settings, the F80EXR still includes several "Auto" shooting modes (including your typical "Scene" modes) that will allow any member of your family or office to pick the F80EXR up and start snapping pleasing photos. For those who like to "play" with more advanced controls, the camera does offer a Manual exposure mode.
The Super CCD EXR imaging sensor uses larger pixels, while placing them closer together and in difference arrangement when compared to conventional CCD sensors. This allows the EXR processor to produce images with increased resolution without sacrificing image quality due to cramming more, smaller pixels into the same surface area. It also allows the camera to be more sensitive to light and produce more lifelike colors. There are three EXR modes to choose from: Resolution Priority, D-Range Priority and High ISO Low Noise, which you can choose manually or the camera will select from them automatically. Their intelligent "EXR Auto" exposure mode not only chooses from one of the three modes above, but also combines that chosen setting with one of the standard scene modes (thanks to its scene recognition system). The result is the camera will capture the highest quality images possible, not matter what the shooting situation at hand.
The body of this camera is quite small, especially when you consider that it's packing a 10x optical zoom lens inside. The right side of the frame is slightly "fatter", which is designed to help make holding the camera with your right hand more comfortable. It also allows for simple one-handed shooting. All of the camera controls are easily accessed by your finger tips. Like we saw with the F70EXR, you have to watch your fingers on your right hand to ensure they don't block the flash. One noticeable improvement on the F80EXR is the large 3.0-inch LCD screen. This is a welcomed addition over the 2.7-inch display of old, and we found it worked well in most lighting. The surface is very reflective, which can cause some issues in bright sunny conditions. The live image is nice and bright, so that will help you frame your subject in these harsh conditions.
Image quality has not improved over the F70EXR. By stuffing more pixels onto the same size sensor (12-megapixels compared to 10), we feel that the F80EXR's image quality has suffered when compared to its predecessor. That's not to say that the F80EXR doesn't capture nice photos. We just noticed when comparing them side by side, the F70EXR's photos looked better to us. The most noticeable difference in quality that we noted was imager noise. The F80EXR shows increased amounts of noise over the past model, in almost every situation. Again, we want to reiterate that the F80EXR does capture pleasing 12-megapixel photos for a camera of this size. Exposures are quite nice, as are colors. Images show good contrast and sharpness throughout the frame, with a slight softening seen when viewing at 100% due to noise.
The F80EXR's 10x optical zoom lens boasts a versatile equivalent range of 27-270mm. This will afford a nice wide view for indoor or landscape type photos, while at the same time give you good reach for tight close-ups and brining distant subjects closer. We found that the lens helps the camera produce clear images throughout the zoom range, with moderate barrel distortion at the wide end, along with slight pincushioning at full telephoto. We also saw some small traces of aberrations in some of the high-contrast areas of our photos.
When shooting our M&M man photos, we saw similar results to the F70EXR. At ISO 100 the camera captures beautiful photos that show great detail, however you can see a good amount of noise in low contrast areas and around bright colors. ISO 200 is where noise starts to become noticeable. At the same time, some of the fine details, such as the flag stitching, start to disappear. At ISO 800 is when you will have to start worrying about noise showing up in prints 8×10 and smaller. Although the camera features ISO settings up 12800, which is normally only found on high-end dSLRs, the higher ISO images look horrible. This is more of a gimmick to be honest, as I can not see one single use for the 6400 and 12800 settings as the photos look like a water-color art mode. Even ISO 3200 is unusable for even 4×6-inch photos. Luckily, the camera keeps the ISO to 800 and below when using the auto ISO setting.
The F80EXR's Super Intelligent Flash unit performed well for such a small speedlite. It offers a decent amount of power when compared to other cameras of this size, and was able to give us good illumination on subjects less than 10 feet away; depending on the zoom and ISO settings. Fuji claims a range of up to 13.8ft. (w) at ISO 800. As long as you do not expect this camera to illuminate an open room, you should be pleased with your flash mode shooting results.
Pro Low Light mode, which takes several images at once and combines them into a single image with lower noise, worked quite well. You can see some examples on our samples page where we shot our M&M man under some very low lighting in Auto, EXR Auto, and the Pro Low Light mode. While all three images show similar exposure, you can see that the Pro Low Light mode did help produce less noise than the others. While this seems like a very useful feature, we noted that it was most useful when using a tri-pod for support. Hand holding that camera at shutter speeds of 1/4 of a second would have produced some very blurry photos due to camera shake.
Our videos results were average at best. While our HD samples look great on the 3.0-inch LCD, once you enlarge them on a monitor (like my Dell 24-inch widescreen), you can see that they are not sharp at all. Playback is nice and smooth, and the camera handles exposure well. The optical zoom can also be used during video, but you'll find that it takes a second for focus to catch up. Overall, this is a nice function to have, just don't expect to create the latest blockbuster with this camera.
Battery life was Ok for a consumer mode. FujiFilm claims that you can shoot up to 230 photos on a single charge, which is about average. Many newer cameras are achieving 300+ photos on one charge, which is much more appealing in my opinion. This battery life should get you through a days worth of shooting, however we recommend you pick up a second pack if you are going on vacation. Since the battery is charged outside the camera, you can use one pack while the other is charging.
Bottom Line – FujiFilm's latest EXR FinePix model is a versatile compact camera. This unit has a lot to offer and packs a wealth of cool features inside of its body, including a powerful 10x wide angle zoom, Multi-frame technology, Dog/Cat detection, HD video mode, and much more. With good overall image quality, speedy performance, and a street price of $300 or less, we feel the FujiFilm FinePix F80EXR offers great "bang for your buck" when you consider the versatility and features you are receiving from such a compact package.

Two-Handed or "Ready" Carry
Grasp the firearm with both hands. Carry it muzzle-up across the body. Cover the trigger guard with your hand. Never put your finger on the trigger.
This carry gives you the best control and can be one of the safest carries.
Do not use this carry if someone is walking on the side toward which the muzzle is pointing.

I've never had that prob, anyway I'm adding an "assignascargo" in every unit's init field...
I didn't find that addon requirement in the mission sqm file...
QuoteBy the time you get to that bmp factory we are ready for a change of scenery and switch to a different mission.I don't understand what you mean exactly...
By the time you get to that bmp factory we are ready for a change of scenery and switch to a different mission.
You have a DKsmoke effects addon requirement
_particleSource setParticleParams [["\Ca\Data\ParticleEffects\FireAndSmokeAnim\SmokeAnim.p3d"
You have lots of great ideas and have created very well done battles but I think you need to limit the timing.
Thanks and perhaps you're right for the timing, but the work to go back and supress the second part of the mission makes me afraid...Anyway, I promised: next time, I'll do a shorter one!
The respawn after the tower is too far, and probably not needed. what might be nice to have is a respawn half way between the 2nd and the tower. maybe off the to the left.
The battle once you get to the tower, I think the west respawn needs some more cover
many east guys had no guns, this is a sign they spent sometime in the water.
We killed the prisoner again, hes in a bad spot, the objective didn't change any when we killed him.

It may only be February, but we've already seen a wealth of Red Carpet Beauty this year thanks to numerous awards ceremonies including the Golden Globes, the Grammys and the BAFTAs. We've still got the Oscars to go at the end of the month as well!
Just like Marilyn Monroe stole the show all those years ago at the Golden Globes, when it comes to beauty, some stars have shone brighter than others on the red carpet at this year's ceremonies. Read on to find out my favourite Red Carpet Beauty moments so far…
Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer Lawrence is gorgeous. Jennifer Lawrence is also chums with Bradley Cooper and Michael Fassbender. Jennifer Lawrence is hereby the source of all my envy. Seriously though, I do love a bit of Jen; she's great as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games and she also seems to have a pretty grounded attitude towards Hollywood and all its silliness. Plus she looked awesome at this year's BAFTAs.
Slicked-back hair is an unconventional and risky look for the red carpet, but the actress definitely pulled it off. Jennifer's dark, sooty eyes looked very alluring, and given they were teamed with wet-look hair, they completed her just-out-of-the-shower, smudgy-eyed vibe. For eyes like Jennifer's apply LCN's Dark Midnight Glow eyeshadow, £11.45 from beautyconcepts.co.uk.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Sarah Jessica Parker's beauty and fashion sense have always been unconventional, and equally out of the ordinary is her down to earth personality. Unlike typical showbiz prima donnas, SJP always comes across as warm, charismatic, and genuine – qualities which she displayed during her speech at the BAFTAs.
When the actress stepped on stage in her Elie Saab jumpsuit, I was struck by how amazing she looked. It's been years since SATC came to an end, but SJP is looking remarkably youthful – and not in a surgically-enhanced kinda way, either. After all, the Sex and the City star has long been averse to plastic surgery.
"People used to tell me to do my nose all the time—all the time," she told Allure in 2000. "I'm not a big fan of collagen and Botox for actresses because I think it ruins a very expressive part of our faces. I kinda dig that I'm so flawed." Well, she may love imperfections, but SJP's hair at the BAFTAs was absolutely flawless thanks to Charles Worthington, who worked his mane-magic on the actress before she hit the red carpet.
To achieve hair like SJP's, the stylist recommends using Charles Worthington Instant Volume Amplifying Volume Treatment, £14.99, before running straightening irons through your hair. My favourite straighteners at the moment are Babyliss' 2098bu Pro 230 Elegance Straighteners, Like SJP, my hair is naturally thick and curly, but these slim straighteners and their super-hot, titanium ceramic plates do a great job of taming my locks. Available to buy from TheRankTank.com for a reduced price of £34.99.
It was her first official outing with Chris Brown as a couple since he assaulted her at the 2009 Grammys – a reunion which by many is seen as a controversial move on Rihanna's part – so it was fitting that the singer opted for a bold look at this year's awards ceremony. Speaking about her newly rekindled relationship, Rihanna said: "If it's a mistake, then it's my mistake".
Just like her defiant attitude, Rihanna's scarlet dress. rouge lips and matching nails were fiery if not downright daring. Her long wavy hair, on the other hand, softened the overall look (which might have otherwise seemed too harsh) and reminded us that Rihanna is still a young and at times vulnerable woman. Here's hoping Chris Brown treats her right this time.
Find out which red nail polishes and red lipsticks I like best at the moment by visiting Yesterface's Valentine's Day Beauty Guide!
Golden Globes
Claire Danes
Not only did Claire Danes pick up the gong for Best Actress at this year's Golden Globes, but she came up trumps on the red carpet too.
I've become accustomed to seeing Danes sport a pair of manic, tired-looking eyes in her (brilliantly acted) role as CIA officer Carrie Mathison in Homeland, so it was a welcome surprise to see her all dolled up at the Globes.
Danes complimented her natural beauty with an ample dose of eyeliner and this smokey, feline look was beyond seductive; it made the actress' electric blue eyes sizzle even more than usual. Her hair do was a total win, too. Tousled, long, glossy and voluminous, it was as far cry from the short, unassuming style worn by her character Carrie. Bravo, Claire!
Jessica Alba
When it comes to style, this woman can do no wrong. Her look at the Globes was not only immaculate, but had an earthy and vibrant edge too.
Her sun-kissed California skin, burnt orange lips, subtle contouring and simple eyemakeup all worked together in perfect harmony to create a stunning overall look. Jessica Alba, I salute you. If you want lips like Jessica's, I suggest using Sundown Mini Lipstick by Frontcover (£4.00).
Next up, the Oscars! Keep your eyes peeled for my special Oscars post, where I'll be looking at a history of Red Carpet Beauty…

Antibiotics are commonly used to treat sinusitis, but a new clinical trial has found that a placebo works just as well.
Scientists randomized 166 adults, all of whom met the diagnostic criteria for sinusitis, to receive the antibiotic amoxicillin or a placebo three times a day for 10 days. On the third, seventh and tenth days, the participants recorded their symptoms.
There was no significant difference between the two groups in the amounts of time missed from work or everyday activities, relapse or recurrence rates, adverse effects or satisfaction with the treatment. Nor was there any difference in self-reported improvement in symptoms, except on the seventh day, when 74 percent of those taking amoxicillin reported improvement, compared with 56 percent of those on the placebo.
The authors acknowledge that it is possible that not all patients in the study had bacterial sinusitis, since the diagnosis is made clinically, not by a laboratory test. (Antibiotics, of course, are ineffective against a viral infection.)
"I hope that the results here will give doctors evidence to use in discussions with patients about avoiding unnecessary antibiotic treatment," said the lead author, Dr. Jane M. Garbutt of Washington University in St. Louis.
The study appeared last week in The Journal of the American Medical Association.
