Jedi Order
- "The Jedi Consular trains primarily in the ways of the Force. Consulars can subdue their targets using telekinetic powers and lightsabers alike
Primary Attribute: Willpower. Willpower increases the damage and critical chances of the Consular's Melee and Force powers. This remains so for the Shadow, while the Sage's Willpower increases Force damage and healing powers instead
Advanced Classes (Available at level 10): Jedi Sage and Jedi Shadow
Jedi Sage (Damage, Healing): Sages keep their targets at a distance, utilizing telekinetic Force abilities like Project, Telekinetic Throw and Force Stun. A Sage is also fluent in the arts of healing through the Force and can provide a powerful support role as healers when trained as a Seer
Jedi Shadow (Damage, Defense): Shadows are infiltrators and Jedi intelligence gatherers. Trained with stealth and double-bladed lightsabers, a Shadow tackles conflict with subtlety and a mix of decisive martial arts and the Force. Shadows specializing in Kinetic Combat can leverage the defensive strengths of a double-bladed lightsaber and the Force to guard allies and bolster defenses."
- ―In-game Codex (Game Rules)
The Jedi Consular is one of the four Galactic Republic classes. Alongside the Jedi Knight, it is one of the two Galactic Republic-aligned Force-users.
Satele Shan is a famous Jedi Consular.
Visionary, Ambassador, Seeker of Jedi Wisdom
For more than 20,000 years, the Jedi Order has worked to promote peace and balance in the Galactic Republic, but each new day brings with it a new threat, promising to rip the Jedi and the entire galaxy apart. If the Republic is to survive, it needs leaders and visionaries; it needs the Jedi Consular.
Jedi Consulars channel the power of the Force for strength in combat and wisdom in diplomacy. Years of arduous training and meditation have sharpened Consulars' minds to cut to the truth as cleanly as their Lightsabers cut through their foes. Whether unlocking long forgotten mysteries of the Jedi, raising armies to fight for the Republic or engaging in mortal combat with Dark Lords of the Sith, the Consulars' deep attunement to the Force gives them all the power they need to rise to the occasion with poise and balance.
Intimate atonement with the deepest Force mysteries gives Jedi Consulars the insight and empathy to deftly handle charged conflicts that confound even the most cunning Senators and governors—but Consulars know when it's time to talk and when it's time to fight. When negotiations turn aggressive, Consulars demonstrate their gifts of foresight—anticipating and deflecting enemy attacks with fluid strikes from their Lightsaber.
Facing the Darkness Within
Jedi Consulars always seek to grow their knowledge of the galaxy, in understanding of themselves, and in comprehension of the Force that binds it all together. The commitment to this pursuit gives Consulars an unrivaled capacity for clarity in situations otherwise shrouded in darkness. However, this same dedication can also prove to be extremely perilous—inviting Consulars to explore paths that are better left untraveled. Some of the Jedi Order's greatest minds have been seduced to the dark side through purely academic inquiries. The Consular knows the pain of this temptation as a battle-hardened warrior knows the throbbing of an old wound.
Before they can dispel the darkness in the galaxy, Jedi Consulars know they must first come to terms with the darkness within. There's no avoiding the temptation to take shortcuts or even to use their knowledge for personal power; Consulars must constantly check their own motives. When tempted to step onto the path leading to darkness, Consulars must remember the tormented fate of the Jedi who have passed that way before. This is the only way they can unite the Jedi Order and the Republic and rally the troops to rescue the galaxy from the menacing darkness.
Field Reconnaissance
In a more peaceful age, Jedi Consulars may have humbly dedicated their lives to service as keepers of Jedi lore or as ambassadors in service to the Republic—tasks for which Consulars are uniquely qualified. However, as the shadow of the Empire has spread further across the galaxy, Consulars have stepped up to face the darkness on the front lines of battle as often as they've faced it when exploring the mysteries of the Force.
Preferring to stay as nimble on the battlefield as they are in negotiations, Jedi Consulars avoid the heavy battle armor worn by many Jedi Knights, Dense polymers and Cortosis armors would weigh them down; light cloaks and ornamented robes suit their strengths better, and the efforts they most often find themselves engaged in. No matter where they go, however, Consulars are never without the Lightsaber that marks their initiation into the Jedi Order.
Combat Tactics
The Consular's powers go far beyond meditation and mediation, and nothing illustrates this as vividly as their graceful movements in battle. Whether beset by an army of assassin droids or caught in the middle of soured negotiations, the Jedi Consular fights with an open conduit for the Force; manipulating massive forces to disable or even destroy their enemies.
The dual-bladed Lightsaber preferred by many Consulars requires a skilled approach to dueling. Wielding this weapon, Jedi Consulars will draw upon the Force to sense their opponents' locations and strike them all down with precision. The Jedi Consular doesn't just detect disturbances in the Force—sometimes they create them. This powerful ability allows the Consular to project a wall of pure Force energy into their opponents. The Jedi Consular has a preternatural understanding of how the Force connects all things, and they draw on this knowledge to toss enemies of all sizes into the air, before hurling them to the ground.
- "A true Force prodigy, Jedi Master <name> has stood as a beacon of hope in the war against the Sith Empire, earning the title BARSEN'THOR: Warden of the Jedi Order. Uniting the Republic's most contentious worlds, <name> exposed and defeated deadly Sith infiltrators hidden deep within the ranks of both the Jedi and the military. But now a new enemy threatens to destroy both Republic and Empire, forcing <name> into an even more dangerous alliance in the desperate hope of saving the galaxy...."
- ―In-game Codex (Persons of Note)
These species are available to play as a Jedi Consular:
Note: Any other legacy species unlocked would also be playable as a Jedi Consular.
The Jedi Consulars are very powerful in the Force. Focusing on Telekinesis, they channel the Force for power and wisdom. They can also specialize in lightsaber combat as a Jedi Shadow.
The resource bar for a Consular is Force. The consular starts with 100 Force, but this does not increase as the consular's level increases; however, some abilities that the Jedi Consular can learn will increase the amount of Force or the regeneration rate.
Consular Tactics
Consulars are also outstanding warriors, trained to use single- or double-bladed lightsabers, depending on their advanced class. They not only have offensive capabilities, but defensive abilities as well. These options allow the Consular to be a utility class or to fill a main role in a party, including DPS, Crowd Control, Healing, and even Tanking.
Jedi Consulars fight with amazing serenity. In contrast to Jedi Knights, who draw on the Force mainly to enhance their lightsaber strikes, Consulars frequently use the Force directly in combat. They can use Force energy to blast their opponents away from them or to slowly drain an opponent's health, to heal themselves and allies or to shield themselves from damage. Consulars also use the terrain to a huge advantage, often using telekinetic abilities to throw rocks and other objects at their foe, causing large amounts of damage.
Advanced Classes
Jedi Sage
- The Jedi Sage wields a single-bladed lightsaber, has powerful telekinetics/healing, and is a ranged controller with damage or healing powers. As a Sage, you can effectively cast on the enemy, stunning and damaging, and keep your allies' health up at the same time.
Jedi Shadow
The Jedi Shadow wields a double-bladed lightsaber, possesses stealth skills, as well as sustained damage and burst melee damage abilities. They can also tank with one of their specialization trees. A Shadow uses melee skills for great damage, and defense for great survivability.

**(Only after a point in companion story with female Consular. Otherwise "O".)
Both the Jedi Consular and Jedi Knight classes make use of the Corellian Defender-class Light Corvette, suitable for both aggressive action and more placid negotiations.
Developed at the height of the The Great War , the defender was custom-built for the Jedi Order . The Jedi Council commissioned the starship after determining Republic Military vessels were not well-suited to the Jedi's more specialized missions. The Defender's exterior design bases itself on the consumer model corvette, but it has been outfitted with countless customized upgrades.
Loose, light-weight clothing is the preferred style for Jedi Consulars, enabling them to remain agile in battle.[3] At times, ornate robes may help accomplish missions of negotiation and diplomacy;[4] however, a Consular's prime interest is the mission, which means that apparel may need to be improvised from available materials.[5]
Preferring to stay as nimble on the battlefield as they are in negotiations, Jedi Consulars avoid the heavy battle armor worn by many Jedi Knights , Dense polymers and Cortosis armors would weigh them down; light cloaks and ornamented robes suit their strengths better, and the efforts they most often find themselves engaged in. No matter where they go, however, Consulars are never without the Lightsaber that marks their initiation into the Jedi Order.
Jedi Consulars generally wield single-bladed lightsabers, but as a Jedi Shadow, they are able to wield a double-bladed lightsaber. The traditional lightsaber color of Jedi Consulars is green; but Consulars have been known to use a large number of different colored lightsabers.

The Big East's Top 25 (or so) Non-Conference Games of 2012-13Posted by Dan Lyons on November 9th, 2012
While Big East basketball is always a spectacle, this conference season has even more added juice with the impending departures of Syracuse, Pittsburgh, and (eventually) Notre Dame. However, before we get to conference games, the Big East is involved in some really intriguing non-conference games this season. Big East teams will be playing all over the United States, Germany, and on a few aircraft carriers. Let's take a look at the best that the Big East has to offer in the non-conference slate this season.
25. Pittsburgh v. Oakland, November 17, 7 PM
The Panthers have a rather light non-conference slate this season, but don't expect them to look past the Golden Grizzlies. Oakland has a history of playing tough schedules, and won't be intimidated by the Zoo. Oakland is coming off of a bit of a down year in 2011-12 when they finished 20-16 (11-7), but made the NCAA Tournament in both 2009-10, when they were knocked out in the first round by Pittsburgh, and 2010-11.
24. DePaul @ Auburn, November 30, 9 PM
Look for DePaul to try to do the conference proud when they head down to take on the Auburn Tigers as part of the SEC-Big East Challenge. This DePaul squad should be better than it has been in years past, returning dynamic forward Cleveland Melvin and dangerous guard Brandon Young. Auburn is coming off of a poor 15-16 season, and could be ripe for a big non-conference road win for the Blue Demons.
23. Rutgers v. Iona, Madison Square Garden, December 8, 9:30 PM
One of these New York metropolitan-area teams is coming off of a great season that ended in a heartbreaking NCAA tournament loss to BYU. The other is continually striving to build its program, and aspires to have such success. It almost seems backwards that Iona is the more accomplished team at the moment, but isn't that what makes college basketball so great? A big performance by the Scarlet Knights at the Garden could go a long way in setting the tone for a run at a tournament berth in the Big East.
22. St. John's v. Detroit, November 13, 2 PM
The Johnnies tip off their season against a very dangerous Detroit squad led by superstar Ray McCallum. St. John's has a number of impressive young players themselves, and head coach Steve Lavin will return to the sideline after battling cancer last season. While many look forward to what should be a fun match-up between McCallum and D'Angelo Harrison, the St. John's star was recently benched in the team's final exhibition for disciplinary reasons. If Lavin continues to have issues with his top guard, it could prove very problematic for the Red Storm next week.

Today, health insurance is a necessity for most families. Health insurance helps subscribers pay for a portion of most routine and unexpected medical costs. There are many varieties of health insurance on the market and choosing the right one for an individual's personal situation can seem like a daunting task. Some plans can pay directly to the care provider while others require the subscriber to pay the provider first and then submit the receipt to be reimbursed through the insurance plan. Wirefly is available to help subscribers compare health insurance plans in Maidens, VA and receive free quotes online.
Most residents in Maidens, VA usually receive health insurance through their employer sponsored plan or through private insurance. Senior citizens may be eligible to receive their health insurance through Medicare while families falling into the low-income brackets can usually get their insurance through Medicaid programs. Medicare and Medicaid programs are often less expensive than other private health insurance plans.
The challenge in selecting a health insurance plan is accurately predicting health care needs for the year. If an individual doesn't get enough coverage, he'll pay more out of pocket, but if he gets a plan with extra coverage that he doesn't need, he'll end up paying more than necessary for his monthly premiums. The best strategy for most people in Maidens, VA is checking out their past health care needs to assess how much coverage they'll need going forward. Those who are fairly healthy and don't make too many doctor's visits will most likely be fine on a low-cost plan. People who make frequent trips to the doctor or have a chronic condition should look for a more comprehensive plan so they don't get stuck with any hefty out-of-pocket costs.
When it comes to low-cost plans in Maidens, VA, it doesn't get much less expensive than catastrophic-only insurance. As the name implies, this type of plan only covers health care for serious emergencies. People who travel often or participate in high-risk activities will require insurance that covers visits to the ER and trips to the doctor.
As coverage gets more comprehensive, monthly premiums tend to get higher. When a person pays more for an insurance plan each month, he can expect the insurance company to also pay more when he receives healthcare. People should use their personal health histories and lifestyles to find the insurance plan that provides the coverage they need at the most economical price. The best way to do so is start with the basics and then add any other important coverages that are within budget.
The most common health insurance plans that are offered in Maidens, VA include HMO, PPO, POS, HSA, HRA, and MSA. Although at first, these may seem confusing, it is important to carefully decide what coverage you need to best cover your yearly medical expenses.
Health Maintenance Organization, or HMO, requires one health care physician to cover all of your healthcare needs. So, if you plan on seeing certain specialists, you have to first get permission from your primary care physician. Although this is one of the cheapest plans to sign on to, you have less provider flexibility since you can only have one physician.
PPO, or Preferred Provider Organization, offers a much wider network of health care providers. You can personally choose any physician within the network to treat you without any need for a referral or permission. PPO's are one of the best types of plans to choose due to the flexibility and they typically accept, co-payments, deductibles, and yearly medical expense limits.
A POS plan, or point of service plan, combines the benefits of both PPO plans and HMO plans. They offer a large network of health care providers in Maidens, VA that you can choose from to find a primary care provider. If you stay in the network of doctors, you are not required to pay any deductibles and your copayments will be low. Conversely, if you need to visit a doctor that is not in your network, your deductibles and copayments will be a lot higher.
As far as non-traditional options, there are a few different sorts available in Maidens, VA. Some of your choices include a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA), a Medical Savings Account (MSA), a Health Savings Account (HSA), or a Health Flexible Spending Account (FSA). With all of these accounts, either you or your employer will put money aside for only medical expenses. These accounts are all tax-exempt and similar to savings accounts. The money in these accounts can be used to pay for doctor's trips, prescriptions, surgical procedures, some over the counter medications, and other regular medical expenses. There is a lot of flexibility associated with this sort of plan. You can decide how you spend your money and your money may even roll over into the next year.
The amount of money you are required to pay each month to maintain your health insurance coverage in Maidens, VA is referred to as the premium. The premium will not be returned to you under any circumstances, even if you do not use your insurance. Any additional money you are responsible for paying prior to your insurance company covering their agreed portion is known as the deductible.
Deductibles differ from out-of-pocket expenses. The deductible describes the annual amount you are responsible for paying before your insurance start to cover costs. The term 'out-of-pocket' refers to the amount of money you need to pay before your insurance company will cover 100 percent of your bill.
With each new year, deductibles and out of pocket usually start fresh. Any expenses from the prior year can have an impact on these costs moving forward. This means that if you have a $4,000 deductible and you spent $2,500 out-of-pocket in the previous year, your out-of-pocket expenses will reset to $0 and the $2,500 will not roll over if you keep the same plan. Certain plans in Maidens, VA allow exceptions to this rule and allow you to transfer your paid deductible amount from the prior year towards the first portion of the new year.
Co-payments refers to your financial requirements in terms of medical visits and services. If you have a copayment of $20 to see your primary care doctor, then you will be required to pay $20 each time you visit your physician. After you cover the co-pay, the insurance pays the remaining balance as long as the services are covered under your plan. Copayments do not count towards your deductible.
You may also be offered a maximum lifetime benefit by your insurance provider. This term refers to the highest amount of money that your provider will pay in total for your medical expenses. Upon reaching the maximum limit, your insurance company will stop paying for any medical claims.
The health insurance options that are open to you in Maidens, VA are affected by your current employment situation. If you are employed at a larger company, it is likely that you will qualify for their group health insurance plan. Generally, this is a more affordable option than choosing individual health care. However, no one is required to participate in these specific plans.
If you are currently unemployed or are self-employed, you are eligible to purchase private health insurance. If you are an unemployed senior citizen, you are eligible to obtain financial assistance provided by the government known as Medicare. Individuals with an income that falls below average have the option to apply for a government funded program known as Medicaid.
It is crucial to double check with your physician to see which health insurance policies are covered in Maidens, VA. If you wish to see a particular doctor, it is important to verify that they are covered under your plan. Additionally, let your physician know if your plan is altered. Check with your health insurance provider about any questions or concerns you have in regards to your coverage.

After an eight-year absence I finally made it out to Butano Fire Road to check out the newly improved airport, which now has a solar-powered control tower. Over the past 30 years my visits to the airport with Jobst Brandt and riders always made for interesting discussions as we stopped to enjoy a soda in the airport waiting area. It's a bit spartan here to say the least — no seating, no food service, no restrooms, no people movers.
Oh, and no traffic. You'd think the Half Moon Bay airport could work out a deal and transport hikers to the airport rather than making them hike a million miles from Butano State Park. It's not a paved runway, but a small airplane would have no problem.
I saw dirt aplenty today. There's the mile of China Grade that's dirt and then there's another nine miles on Butano Fire Road. The only longer point-to-point route in the area is Aptos Creek Fire Road and Buzzard Lagoon, which goes for 12 miles on dirt.
Over the years the road has become perfectly OK to use as most of it is now in Butano State Park. I saw no logging activity, although it may still take place from time to time.
One of the nice features of the road is that it's mostly downhill, with only three steep (11 percent) but short climbs worthy of note. That's not to say you can't ride up from Cloverdale. I did that once. Despite being a long climb, there are some nasty steep spots of 15 percent. I decided that was one memorable experience I didn't need to repeat.
Conditions vary but today with the exception of the occasional sandy spot it was perfect. In 30 years the road has remained a gem for cycling and due to its remote location, it will probably stay that way.

Curtis LeMay
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Curtis LeMay (November 15, 1906 – October 3, 1990) was a general in the United States Air Force and the vice presidential running mate of American Independent Party candidate George Wallace in the 1968 presidential election. During World War II, he was known for planning and executing a massive bombing campaign against cities in Japan and a crippling minelaying campaign in Japan's internal waterways. After the war, he initiated the Berlin airlift, then reorganized the Strategic Air Command (SAC) into an effective instrument of nuclear war. He served as Chief of Staff of the U.S. Air Force from 1961 until his retirement in 1965.
- There are no innocent civilians. It is their government and you are fighting a people, you are not trying to fight an armed force anymore. So it doesn't bother me so much to be killing the so-called innocent bystanders.
- Sherry, Michael (September 10, 1989). The Rise of American Air Power: The Creation of Armageddon, p. 287 (from "LeMay's interview with Sherry," interview "after the war," p. 408 n. 108). Yale University Press. ISBN-13: 978-0300044140.
- My solution to the problem would be to tell [the North Vietnamese Communists] frankly that they've got to draw in their horns and stop their aggression or we're going to bomb them into the Stone Age. And we would shove them back into the Stone Age with Air power or Naval power—not with ground forces.
- Mission With LeMay: My Story (1965), p. 565. In an interview two years after the publication of this book, General LeMay said, "I never said we should bomb them back to the Stone Age. I said we had the capability to do it. I want to save lives on both sides"; reported in The Washington Post (October 4, 1968), p. A8. Many years later LeMay would claim that this was his ghost writer's overwriting.
- Killing Japanese didn't bother me very much at that time... I suppose if I had lost the war, I would have been tried as a war criminal.... Every soldier thinks something of the moral aspects of what he is doing. But all war is immoral and if you let that bother you, you're not a good soldier.
- On the morality of the firebombing campaign [1])
- I'd like to see a more aggressive attitude on the part of the United States. That doesn't mean launching an immediate preventive war...
- Mission with LeMay: My Story (1965), p. 559.
- ...Native annalists may look sadly back from the future on that period when we had the atomic bomb and the Russians didn't. Or when the Russians had aquired (through connivance and treachery of Westerns with warped minds) the atomic bomb - and yet still didn't have any stockpile of the weapons. That was the era when we might have destroyed Russia completely and not even skinned our elbows doing it.
- Mission with LeMay: My Story (1965), p. 560-561.
- China has The Bomb. [...] Sometime in the future--25, 50, 75 years hence--what will the situation be like then? By that time the Chinese will have the capability of delivery too. That's the reason some schools of thinking don't rule out a destruction of the Chinese military potential before the situation grows worse than it is today. It's bad enough now.
- Mission with LeMay: My Story (1965), p. 561.
- We went over there and fought the war and eventually burned down every town in North Korea anyway, someway or another, and some in South Korea too.… Over a period of three years or so, we killed off — what — twenty percent of the population of Korea as direct casualties of war, or from starvation and exposure?
- Strategic Air Warfare: An Interview with Generals (1988), p. 88.
- If I see that the Russians are amassing their planes for an attack, I'm going to knock the shit out of them before they take off the ground.
- Conversation with presidential commissioner Robert Sprague (September 1957), quoted in Kaplan, F. (1991). The Wizards of Armageddon. Stanford University Press. Page 134.
- We're at war with Japan. We were attacked by Japan. Do you want to kill Japanese, or would you rather have Americans killed?
- From his autobiography, also requoted in Rhodes, 'The Making of the Atomic Bomb', p. 596
- She [America] escaped the ruin visited upon other nations because she was given time to prepare and because of distance. [In the next war] distance will be academic [and no preparation time, too].
- November 19th 1945 New York speech, as quoted in 'Dark Sun' p.227 (sadly, direct link to the page to read was denied by Wikipedia).
- As far as casualties were concerned I think there were more casualties in the first attack on Tokyo with incendiaries than there were with the first use of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. The fact that it's done instantaneously, maybe that's more humane than incendiary attacks, if you can call any war act humane. I don't, particularly, so to me there wasn't much difference. A weapon is a weapon and it really doesn't make much difference how you kill a man. If you have to kill him, well, that's the evil to start with and how you do it becomes pretty secondary. I think your choice should be which weapon is the most efficient and most likely to get the whole mess over with as early as possible.
- The World at War: the Landmark Oral History from the Classic TV Series, p. 574
- I'll tell you what war is about, you've got to kill people, and when you've killed enough they stop fighting.
- Quoted by Richard Rhodes in Wikipedia: The Making of the Atomic Bomb
- Apply whatever force it is necessary to employ, to stop things quickly. The main thing is stop it. The quicker you stop it, the more lives you save.
- Mission with LeMay: My Story (1965), p. 565.
- Actually, I think it's more immoral to use less force than necessary, than it is to use more. if you use less force, you kill off more of humanity in the long run, because you are merely protracting the struggle.
- Mission with LeMay: My Story (1965), p. 382.
Quotes about LeMay[edit]
- After the first International Days of Protest in October, 1965, Senator Mansfield criticized the "sense of utter irresponsibility" shown by the demonstrators. He had nothing to say then, nor has he since, about the "sense of utter irresponsibility" shown by Senator Mansfield and others who stand by quietly and vote appropriations as the cities and villages of North Vietnam are demolished, as millions of refugees in the South are driven from their homes by American bombardment. He has nothing to say about the moral standards or the respect for international law of those who have permitted this tragedy. I speak of Senator Mansfield precisely because he is not a breast-beating superpatriot who wants America to rule the world, but is rather an American intellectual in the best sense, a scholarly and reasonable man -- the kind of man who is the terror of our age. Perhaps this is merely a personal reaction, but when I look at what is happening to our country, what I find most terrifying is not Curtis LeMay, with his cheerful suggestion that we bomb everybody back into the stone age, but rather the calm disquisitions of the political scientists on just how much force will be necessary to achieve our ends, or just what form of government will be acceptable to us in Vietnam. What I find terrifying is the detachment and equanimity with which we view and discuss an unbearable tragedy. We all know that if Russia or China were guilty of what we have done in Vietnam, we would be exploding with moral indignation at these monstrous crimes.
- Noam Chomsky "On Resistance", The New York Review of Books, December 7, 1967.
- I used to receive a hundred calls a year from people who wanted me to get into the Green Room at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, because that's where the Air Force stored all the material gathered on UFOs. I once asked Curtis LeMay if I could get in that room, and he just gave me holy hell. He said, 'Not only can't you get into it but don't you ever mention it to me again.'
- Barry Goldwater, quoted in The New Yorker, April 25, 1988, p. 70
- An excellent pilot and officer equally capable in both combat and staff, LeMay was typical of the bomber-minded generals who emerged from World War II to dominate the Air Force during the Cold War.
- James F. Dunnigan & Albert A. Nofi, The Pacific War Encyclopedia, Volume 1: A-L (1998), p. 363
- Eventually the decision was reached to accept the armed chopper as an essential part of the air mobility concept but not to allow the Army to use the Mohawk as an attack aircraft, confining it to a reconnaissance role. Both were wise decisions. But prior to these decisions there were some hot and emotional sessions of the JCS. One concerned the armed Huey, which as then being used successfully in Vietnam to support ARVN operations, but which was considered by the Air Force as illegal poaching on their roles and missions. This was in the midsummer of 1964. General LeMay suddenly took his cigar out of his mouth and, gesticulating wildly, challenged General Johnson to an aerial duel. He screamed, "Johnson, you fly one of those damned Huey's and I'll fly an F-105, and we'll see who survives. I'll shoot you down and scatter your peashooter all over the goddamn ground." I was eager to defend my chief, both verbally and physically (LeMay would have made two Johnsons in body weight, if not in mental poundage) but Johnson motioned to me to keep quiet and responded quietly: "I'm not a flier, but I will be happy to get qualified and take you on- we can agree on a time and place later. But let's not waste the valuable time of our colleagues on such a trivial matter."
- Bruce Palmer, Jr., in his book The 25-Year War: America's Military Role in Vietnam (1984), p. 27

For the first time, I can remember fashions from the first time round, and it's freaking me out.
I know what you're thinking, older women, and it's 'boo-fucking-hoo, little girl. Try having Marie Claire selling the same boiler suit you wore in your twenties to today's firm-bottomed youngsters when you, the 'wrong' side of fifty seven, are doomed to pop-socked laden future of slacks and targeted ads for vaginal tightening creams. My heart bleeds for you, you irksome foetus. Indeed, I am playing the world's tiniest stradivarius (a stravidarius which I bought, incidentally, with the million pound profit I got from my townhouse, which I bought for £2 in 1963), and as I play, the blood and the sweet melancholic music blend to provide YET MORE PITY FOR YOU and your concerns about ageing. I am weeping with endless empathy. Etc, etc.'
I take your point, irritated older women of my subconscious. I'd hate being one of those young writers who assumes that everything that is happening to them is happening for the first time. Which is why I'll happily declare right now that, if at some point in the near future I am to get pregnant, I will never, ever write a newspaper column about the trails and tribulations of being a first time mother. Well, not unless the money is REALLY REALLY GOOD. That's a promise from me to you. It is a solemn vow.
Anyway, so the other day my colleague sent me this:
Is this a dagger I see before me? Breathe in, millenials. That is indeed what you think it is. Your eyes do not deceive you – it is a velvet choker with a cross on it.
A velvet choker with a cross on it.
I wore one of those when I was fourteen. Chances are, you did too. And it's not just the choker. I'm seeing velvet spaghetti strap dresses. I'm seeing silver things in Whistles (they're not quite the charming silver combat trouser- bodywarmer combo I sported for the millennium, but they're on their way). I'm seeing mini-backpacks and jelly shoes and crop tops and tie dye and OFF THE FUCKING SHOULDER TOPS. What fresh hell?
It was only when I noticed that I was scouting the murder victims of True Detective for fashion tips that it dawned on me that the nineties were back. I realise that the circuitous nature of fashion means that things will always go in and out of style – it is an inevitability. Part of my irritation at the return of the nineties is, I accept, the ready-made wardrobe I would have had I held on to all my old clothes. Am I upset that I didn't keep the baby blue mini backpack I was given on my thirteenth birthday to contain my very first mobile phone (which had an aerial! An aerial! And no address book!!!)? Yes, I am. Even though I would look like a twat in it. And am I sad that, as a friend recently pointed out as she gazed wistfully at the washboard stomach of a seventeen year old in hot-pants and a crop top that we are 'no longer the fit ones'? Of course I am. I'm only human, and like many other ancient humans on the verge of death from old age, I couldn't name a single Jessie J song. But this isn't just about ageing gracelessly. It's about fashion, and commerce.
You see, the circles that determine what goes around comes around style-wise seem to be getting smaller. Unlike my pelvic floor muscles, they are tightening. While I can understand how my mum can look at the kaftans of two years ago and sigh wistfully, that 'oh my god, I can't believe those are back in fashion', the nineties only happened about ten minutes ago. OK, not ten minutes ago, but a lot less than the forty years ago that were the seventies. I refuse to believe that the things people were wearing twelve years ago count as 'retro' or 'revival'.
Why is this happening? Is it because my generation has finally come of age, stopped interning, and got jobs in the fashion industry just as they were realising that they should be taking all their styling tips from Clueless? Is it because Kate Moss still looks good in these clothes? Or is it because fashion has, actually, reached the zenith of homogeneity and there is nowhere else to go from here?
I think it's the latter.
Think about it. There are no subcultures to borrow from (when was the last time you saw a proper teenage goth?) and everything is a meta-ironic version of something else. Buzzfeed makes articles from other articles, songs are sampled and rehashed into other songs, Celebrities are our 'style icons' who we're supposed to copy to 'get the look.' Street style blogs have developed tropes of their own and are becoming boring in their sameyness. Where else to borrow from but a mere decade or so ago? It doesn't matter that a lot of it is terrible, because it's new(ish). Even the nineties is a long time ago in current fashion schedules, when you consider how there's not even much point in throwing anything away now that last season's 'victoriana chic' is next season's 'gothic wonderland.'
Maybe I am wrong, maybe it is because I am just getting old and no longer have a figure that looks good in Topshop 'Mom' jeans (oh, how we used to deride 'mum jeans'! Now they are the latest thing) Only time will tell. If, in the next couple of months, bleached denim starts popping up everywhere on the high street, we'll know for sure that the fashion time-space continuum is truly broken and that, in this homogenous universe we inhabit, there is truly nothing that can ever happen ever again.

Illinois Led Nation in Auditing Problem Employers
CHICAGO – Illinois employers wrongly classified nearly 20,000 of their workers as independent contractors rather than full-time employees in 2013, skipping out on more than $250 million in wages and contributions to funds that support laid-off and injured workers, the Illinois Department of Employment Security said today.
Taxpayers ultimately cover the costs of misclassified workers because it robs the state of payroll taxes normally removed from a worker's paycheck. Those funds typically are not removed from payments given to independent contractors. In some cases, a homeowner could be responsible for costs incurred if a misclassified worker is injured while working on the owner's dwelling.
"The consequences of misclassification are easy to see when a worker is hurt or an honest business owner is under-bid for a project. What hides in plain sight are the socialized costs that occur when a dishonest employer deceives a customer and cuts corners by not playing by the rules," IDES Director Jay Rowell said.
"The labor movement is about creating strong communities and protecting workers from unscrupulous employers," said Chicago Federation of Labor President Jorge Ramirez. "Tactics like worker misclassification erodes that by violating workers' employment and labor rights."
The audits also showed that Illinois held the most productive employer auditing effort in the nation, according to data compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Illinois audited 3,635 employers in 2013. In doing so it identified 19,765 misclassified employees, $245.6 million in unreported taxable wages and $5.1 million in unreported contributions that fund unemployment insurance benefits. Illinois led by a wide margin all other states in Effective Audit Measures.
Fighting misclassification fraud is critical to workers, employers and taxpayers. Workers benefit because misclassification leads to less money in trust funds used to pay unemployment insurance and worker's compensation claims. Employers benefit because companies that misclassify workers can under-bid law-abiding employers by as much as 30 percent. Taxpayers benefit because employers who misclassify employees typically do not carry insurance, or do not carry insurance at appropriate levels to protect the consumer if a worker is injured on the job. If a worker who has been misclassified and could arguably be considered an employee of the homeowner, the homeowner bears liability for any injury.
Generally speaking, to be considered an independent contractor, a worker must be free from direction or control. A worker is not an independent contractor just because an employer designates him or her as such – even if the worker agrees to the designation. Employers breaking the law could face fines of at least $10,000 and up to 60 percent interest on failed payments. The Illinois Department of Labor, Illinois Department of Employment Security, Illinois Department of Revenue and Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission are working together to help responsible business owners and punish fraud. More is available at www.illinoismisclassification.com
Like several other states, Illinois uses the ABC test to determine if an individual is an employee or an independent contractor. Construction related workers are presumed employees, and not independent contractors, unless the company can prove that the worker is A) free from direction and control of the company and B) the work performed is generally outside the scope of work performed by the company and C) the worker is engaged in an independently established trade or business.

Bride or Grooms Name:
Venue: The Manor Restaurant, West Orange, New Jersey
Erin: We met at a party thrown by my next-door neighbor, and ended up talking the whole night. My neighbor who threw the party just happened to be Jason's best friend. While we were talking we found out that we had grown up 10 minutes away from each other!
Jason: I had to do a lot of chasing to do. I had to pursue Erin for a while before she agreed to go on a date with me.
Erin: I was very young when I met Jason so I was hesitant. I wasn't looking to get seriously involved with anyone. I thought he was attractive and he was a funny, laidback guy. I am big on having humor in my life and he kept me laughing the whole night.
Jason: I thought that Erin was remarkably beautiful and at that time in my life I wasn't looking for the girl I was going to marry. However, I did want to talk to her and see what she was about.
Erin: Our first date was seeing Jackass the movie. I know, so romantic, right? I knew after the first date that this was someone that I was going to be with for a long time to come.
Jason: Erin was under the impression that she wasn't going to be proposed to for a long time. Every Thursday we went to eat dinner with my grandfather at his club, so I didn't want to give any hints away because I had the ring in my pocket. So we went to dinner and then after I took Erin to an overlook that my grandmother always used to take me to. While we were standing at the lookout, I got down on one knee and asked Erin to marry me.
Erin: It was on our three year anniversary when Jason proposed. I wasn't expecting it at all. When he proposed I just started crying because the proposal was so cute. Jason said, "Erin I have never lied to you before except for the past two days. The first one was when I told you that I was at work the other day - I wasn't. I was in New York. The second lie is I wasn't at work today either, because I was at your house, asking your father for permission to give you this." That was when he pulled out the ring from his pocket. I just started yelling, "Yes! Yes! Yes!"
Erin: We were married on our five-year anniversary. We didn't really go into planning until about a year out from our wedding day. It was nice to just relax after the engagement and not have to go right into the stresses of planning a wedding. I did all the planning for our wedding and for the last couple of months we hired a wedding planner just to make sure that everything was ready to go and that the wedding day went smoothly. I was a nervous wreck before I had to go down the aisle. I wasn't nervous to marry to Jason - I was nervous about being up in front of all those people. Jason and I are two different religions: he is Jewish and I am Christian. We wanted to include aspects of both religions, so we had a Cantor and a Minster at the ceremony. I had to say a passage in Hebrew, and I practiced it once over the phone with Jason to make sure that is was acceptable. It was nerve-wracking to do it in front of so many people. In the end, our wedding was absolutely perfect. Everything went right, and it was the perfect day that I had always dreamed about.
Jason: My favorite part of the day was seeing Erin coming down the aisle. I was fine and calm as I was waiting at the end of the aisle. I could see that Erin was nervous, and once she made it down the aisle, I tried to calm her down some before the ceremony started.
Erin: For our reception we also tried to incorporate elements from both religions, so we had the bouquet toss and the garter toss, and we also danced the Hora. (That's where the bride and groom are lifted up in the chairs.) Our first dance was to Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers. This song is very special to us because Jason sang it to me all the time when we first started dating.
Jason: One of the best toasts of the evening was given by my brother. He was just really funny and sentimental. He managed to get in a few embarrassing stories from when we were younger.
Erin: Jason and I lived together before we got married, so not much changed after we got married, except my last name. We just bought a new house and are planning to start a family in the next couple of years.

Not the club book, I know... just didn't know where else to put this one. I'm a cook by trade, and cook for the patients and staff at a local in-patient rehabilitation center. Most of our patients have either had awful accidents or massive strokes. I have to cook a variety of foods aimed at meeting a variety of medically ordered diets, and still am required to provide not only nutritious but delicious foods. We may be the only "hospital food" in the area that offers things like seafood newburgh, tomato bisque, and shrimp scampi... all from scratch.
Anyway, I have read, "Tenzo Kyokun" several times now, and recently finished Bernie Glassman's treatise on it, "Instructions to the Cook," which clarifies (crystaize) that the "Tenzo Kyokun" , while offering perfect instruction to the temple cook, (Tenzo,) has much, much more to do with real life, daily life, LIFE outside one's own noggin. I'm going to read it again. and again and again and again.

Reeve, remembered: <I>Super</I> man left mark on Charlottesville
For nearly a decade, the world watched Superman actor Christopher Reeve tirelessly crusade for spinal cord and stem cell research from his motorized wheelchair. His death on Sunday, October 10, from complications of an infected bedsore came as a shocking blow to millions.
But the fact that Reeve lived for nine years after fracturing his neck between the top two vertebrae is shocking in its own right, says John Jane, the UVA neurosurgeon who performed a six-hour surgery to fuse Reeve's spine.
It's "exceptional" to survive such an injury, Jane says. Most people similarly injured quickly suffocate or suffer permanent brain damage because the injury compromises their ability to breathe.
"The only reason he lived," Jane explains, "was somebody at the scene of the accident gave him mouth to mouth."
There were plenty of bystanders ready to offer aid on May 27, 1995, as the then-42-year-old actor, competing in a Saturday riding event at Commonwealth Park in Culpeper, approached the third jump on the course. His horse balked, according to an Associated Press report at the time, throwing Reeve forward. In October 1995 Reeve recalled the accident for Barbara Walters on 20/20.
"I had the misfortune to get my hand stuck in the horse's bridle," he explained. "So it's like going over with your hands tied, and that's why I landed straight on my head."
His life changed in that instant, and life at UVA hospital was about to change as well– at least temporarily.
As the Pegasus air ambulance flew the injured actor from Culpeper, UVA medical staff prepared to receive the star patient, an unusual occurrence for the hospital, one of five Level 1 trauma centers in the state.
In fact, it had been two decades since UVA hospital handled such a high profile case. In April 1972, Lyndon Johnson suffered a heart attack at the home of his daughter Lynda Bird Robb in Farmington, and had spent four and a half days at the hospital. He died nine and a half months later of heart failure, just two days after Richard Nixon's inauguration.
While hospital personnel were equipped to deal with the severity of Reeve's injury, they were less prepared for complications from a different source: the international press. After British tabloids broke the story of Reeve's injury within a day of the event, reporters from around the globe descended on Charlottesville. So great was the world's interest that UVA set up a telephone hotline with regularly updated information on the actor's condition.
Visiting family members– including Reeve's wife, Dana, the couple's then-three-year-old son, Will, Reeve's two older children, and his older near-lookalike brother Benjamin– were hounded by the press. Also, according to reports at the time, Reeve's acting colleague and former Juilliard roommate Robin Williams had to be smuggled past the press for a visit.
The media fascination was perhaps summed up by New York Post reporter Lisa Massarella's comment to Hawes Spencer, now editor of the Hook: "Superman," she explained, "can no longer fly."
But though initially there was a media circus, Jane says the atmosphere quickly cooled off.
"I gave a limited number of press conferences," he recalls. "It was very reasonable." And after the initial interest, Jane says, "The media was very responsible."
Following one final press conference by Reeve's family, who thanked doctors, nurses, and even local restaurants for their kindness during their Charlottesville stay, Reeve quietly left UVA hospital on June 28 and was moved to a New Jersey rehab facility. But although his role as celebrity doctor was done, Jane says his relationship with Reeve– "an exceedingly brave, courageous human being whom I admired greatly"– continued.
Reeve, who underwent intensive physical therapy so that he could breathe for extended periods without a ventilator, also regained some sensation in his body and eventually was able to lift one of his fingers. Jane says he examined the actor after these achievements.
But Jane's last visit with the actor was a social one, at Reeve's 50th birthday party in 2002.
"He was optimistic, in good cheer," Jane recalls, despite the actor's failure to meet a self-imposed goal of walking by that milestone birthday.
That optimism was well known. His 1998 best-selling autobiography, Still Me, showed that despite his hardships, Reeve remained hopeful. But when a 2000 television advertisement for Nuveen Investments showed a computer-enhanced Reeve walking at an imaginary awards ceremony, he came under some criticism for allegedly offering false expectations to similarly afflicted people.
"Most scientists agree," Reeve insisted in a statement released through Nuveen, "that with enough money and talent focused on spinal cord repair, the goal of walking within the foreseeable future is a very real possibility."
So would he have walked again had he lived?
"It's hard to say," says Jane. But the doctor believes Reeve's accomplishments would have multiplied. "He would have seen his dream of getting better and helping many, many other people in terms of getting better– of that, there's no question."
If the dream of a paralysis cure is to become a reality, Jane says it won't result from a sudden discovery.
"It will be incremental increases in recovery," he says. "It's a slow process, requiring extensive animal experimentation. That's the only way it's going to happen."
But even though Reeve won't see his dream realized, Jane says his efforts have not been wasted– nor will they be forgotten.
"I'm absolutely sure that his efforts have pushed research forward," Jane says. "I think he's established something that will go on."
Dr. John Jane operated on Christopher Reeve following the 1995 riding accident.
Christopher Reeve played a superhero before he put heroic effort into the progress of spinal cord and stem cell research.

On Tuesday, September 17, Barnard President Debora Spar's new book Wonder Women: Sex, Power, and the Quest for Perfection landed in book stores nationwide.
Watch President Spar on CBS This Morning:
In The New York Times Style Section, she answers questions about the book, discussing the idea of "satisficing," the pressure young women face right out of high school, and the invisible barriers and penalties facing women. An excerpt from the article's introduction:
"Debora Spar is the president of Barnard College and the mother of three children, and yet in her spare time she wrote a book — about how women are trying to do far too much at once, using herself as a prime case study. In "Wonder Women: Sex, Power, and the Quest for Perfection," which will be published on Tuesday, Ms. Spar argues that at every stage of life, from childhood to old age, women are straining to reach impossible standards."
Also watch President Spar on MSNBC's Morning Joe and Andrea Mitchel Reports:
Listen to her interviews on NPR's Fresh Air and Tavis Talks. Coverage has also appeared in The Washington Post, Publishers Weekly, New York Magazine, Salon, Politico, HuffPost Live, and more.

Inspired by conversations on the FOOD52 Hotline, we're sharing tips and tricks that make navigating all of our kitchens easier and more fun.
Today: How to buy, arrange, and care for flowers like a professional.
It's February: the doldrums of winter, the month of Valentine's Day, the time when we start aching, longing, and praying for spring.
All of these are reasons to buy fresh flowers.
But arranging these flowers? We know. It's scary. Which is why it's so easy to go for the pre-made bouquets at a flower shop, or to stick to one, simple type, or to forgo flowers altogether and dive into chocolate cake instead.
To get over our flower-arranging anxiety, we spoke to our favorite flower guru: Meredith Sexton, the florist for the Vetri Family of restaurants in Philadelphia. Armed with a good pair of scissors, we got to work -- and realized that the process itself is just as rewarding as the final product.
Choosing your flowers
• Pick a color sequence of no more than three colors. It's easy to get carried away while browsing a flower shop -- but making something beautiful is easier when your flowers match each other. In the winter, we're fans of purple and orange; white, green and blue; or, in honor of Valentine's Day, red, white, and pink.
• Get inspired. If you fall in love with one color or type of flower, carry it around the shop with you. Then, match up the potential accompaniments, seeing if their colors and shapes work well together.
• If you're making multiple bouquets, pick a base flower. Look out for an inexpensive, filler flower in a neutral color -- and then stretch it throughout all of your arrangements. This allows you to buy in bulk -- and to have fun picking special items for each separate bouquet. Meredith is a fan of using white limonium as her base flower; they're small, elegant, and allow the bigger, more colorful flowers to pop.
• Be wary of the flowers on sale. They're on sale for a reason; the store is trying to move them quickly. If you're looking for your flowers to last up to a week, it's best to buy them full-price.
• Big flowers stretch the farthest. If you're on a budget -- or if you're nervous about making your own arrangement -- go for a larger type of flower. They take up more space in a bouquet, so you can buy less of them -- and they're easier to work with while building a bouquet.
• Think about timing. Some flowers, like roses and tulips, benefit from a night in water. If you're building a bouquet for the same day, it's important to keep this in mind.
Arranging your flowers
• Pick your vase. For a rustic look, we're fans of circular, wide-mouthed vases -- even pitchers. For a more refined arrangement, go for a tall, skinny vase.
• Where will your flowers be standing? Is your arrangement a centerpiece for a table? Will the vase be standing against a wall? The placement of your bouquet will determine how you arrange it.
• If you're using a round, wide-mouthed vase, make the arrangement in your hand first. Start with the flowers you'd like in the center, and start building around them, rotating the bouquet in your hand. When you're satisfied, you can cut them all together -- and just plop them in your vase!
• If you're using a tall, skinny vase, think about height. Since these vases look beautiful standing against a wall, take advantage of your point of reference. Starting from the front, build your bouquet upwards, so that the tallest flowers stand up in the back. Here's where your filler flowers come in; use them as your tall backdrop, while letting your colors pop in the front.
• Prune, prune, prune. Just because you buy the flowers a certain way doesn't mean they're finished. Trim away all extra leaves, thorns, branches, and other distractions; you want the flowers themselves to shine.
• Work on symmetry. When you're starting arrangements, it's easiest to make things beautiful by working in symmetry. Putting a pink flower on the left? Put another on the right. Is there a big flower towards the front? Try framing the bouquet with them.
• Test for height. Each flower should get two snips: one to test the height, and one to determine the height. This allows room for error -- the first snip should allow for a second cut, so that you don't accidentally cut flowers too short.
• Experiment! Nothing is permanent. Once you've got the height down, play around! These are only flowers, and they're beautiful on their own. Your job is to have fun with them.
Taking care of your flowers
• Change your water every day. If you have time, wash the vase with soap and water, and add a tiny bit of bleach to each new change of water (this will kill the bacteria). Each time you put your flowers in new water, you should give the stems a fresh cut. Meredith is not a fan of flower food; she believes it can make the flowers over-bloom.
• Do a mid-week check-in. These are living plants, after all -- they're going to morph as they get older. Take some time to prune your bouquet as the week goes on.
What are your favorite kinds of flowers, and how do you like to arrange them?

Water vapour & clouds
Water vapour – simple humidity – is actually the largest single greenhouse gas. It also forms an important link between the land and the ocean: it is a carrying mechanism transporting energy around the globe and is therefore a major driver of weather patterns.
Powering hurricanes
This fact is shown most forcefully by the violent hurricanes and typhoons powered by evaporation from tropical oceans. However water vapour concentration varies strongly in space and time across the planet, evaporating from warm water surfaces only to fall back to Earth as rainfall.
Mapping water vapour
Only space-based monitoring can measure water vapour concentrations on a global basis, either measuring vertical columns of water vapour or assessing atmospheric humidity through a cross section of the atmosphere. Detailed mapping of water vapour promises to help increase the accuracy of weather predictions, especially for rainfall.
Covering the Earth
When water vapour condenses in the atmosphere it forms clouds, another crucial but poorly characterised element of the climate system. At any one time 60% of the Earth's surface is covered by clouds, but their variety is such that they are difficult to model accurately.
What their presence does is alter the movement of energy within the Earth's atmosphere, but in ways that vary depending on the cloud properties, location and time of day.
A thick white cloud top reflects the majority of solar energy straight back out to space, while thin cirrus cloud scatters it within the atmosphere. By night clouds work to insulate heat energy radiated up from the ground and keep it warmer than it otherwise would be.
Cloud formation is connected with aerosols, and aerosol loading on the atmosphere appears to be increasing. But if total cloud coverage were to increase, it is impossible right now to say what the overall effect would be on the Earth's energy budget.
Seeing within clouds
However Earth observation is already making good that gap in our models, returning detailed images of the tops of clouds and their interior structure, as well as their height and reflectivity. Spectral data can provide details on a cloud's temperature, thickness, particle size and whether it is composed of water or ice.
And a future dedicated mission known as EarthCARE (Earth Clouds, Aerosols and Radiation Explorer) is intended to create the first global dataset of vertical cloud profiles and aerosol characteristics together with vertical temperature and humidity profiles plus top of atmosphere radiance. The results will provide essential input data for numerical climate models.

Get a free 2-week lens rental from BorrowLenses.com
Update: BorrowLenses has chosen a winner!
I've been renting lenses online for a few years now (click here to read some of our lens rental service reviews). A macro here, an out-of-my-budget 2.8 there. It's a great way to get just the lens you need when you need it without having to plunk down thousands of dollars to own it. Renting lenses has saved me money in another way too. By renting first, I've discovered there were a couple of lenses I thought I wanted that I didn't really like after all.
What better way to get acquainted with online lens rentals than with a free rental? BorrowLenses.com contacted me over the weekend and generously offered Photodoto readers a chance to receive a free 2-week lens rental. Here's all you have to do:
- Leave a comment describing which lens you would like to rent and why you want to rent it. Leave a valid email address so that we can contact you if you win (your email address will remain private and is used for no other purpose).
That's it! (Except for a few conditions, below.) The comments will remain open until Tuesday September 23 at midnight. After that, BorrowLenses.com will choose a winner and we'll announce it here. Good luck! And a big thank you to BorrowLenses.com for sponsoring this giveaway.
Conditions of entry:
- You must be in the U.S. to enter.
- The winner will need to place an order online with a valid credit card number to receive the rental. The card will not be charged but is required to ensure that the lens is returned. BorrowLenses.com is a reputable business but if you don't feel comfortable with this condition please don't enter.
- The offer excludes super telephoto lenses and camera bodies.

Three old Splinter Cell games are being re-released on the PlayStation 3. If you thought they'd be upgrades of the PS2 versions, you're wrong. And if you thought they'd include online multiplayer, you're also, sadly, wrong.
The three games - Splinter Cell, Pandora Tomorrow and Chaos Theory - are some of the finest and most revered in the series. Yet there will be no co-op or multiplayer modes included with these "upgrades", which for many would have been half the point of getting the thing, especially given people's fond memories of Pandora and Chaos Theory's multiplayer experiences.
On the slightly bright side, the three versions will not be updates of the PS2 editions of the games. They'll instead be upgrades of the PC versions, meaning there's a little more detail to be spruced up.
The games will also pack trophies and be viewable in 3D. You can buy them individually or as a pack from the PSN store, or as a compilation bundle on Blu-Ray from a retail store.
All three games should be out on June 21.

This Official Rules Forum gives the members of the Atomic Think Tank Community direct access to Steve Kenson's insight and intention when creating the rules for Mutants & Masterminds. It also give us access to Steve's experience as a player and Gamemaster. That being said, Steve is also very busy.
So in order to make sure Steve can answer questions and still work on making Mutants & Masterminds a thriving game for those fans who aren't Atomic Think Tank members we ask you to please follow these guidelines.
#1 Please don't ask "How would you do this" questions. While Steve is an experienced Gamemaster by his own admission his solutions aren't going to be right for every group. These types of questions will recieve a much more informative response if they are posted in the GM's Eye's Only or the Mutants & Masterminds Rules 2e forum where the community as a whole (including Steve) can provide input based on their own experiences.
#2 Don't ask about design philosophy. Steve may be willing to answer these questions but this forum's primary purpose is to clarify what the rules are not necessarily why they are that way. This forum is a quick question response format if you want discussion this isn't the right place.
#3 Don't ask about company policies. Steve is the Line Developer not the Green Ronin CEO, distributor, or the printer. Green Ronin is very pro communication company and they share information when and where they can. Green Ronin staff frequent the boards and are also responsive to emails. In other words Steve can't answer every question.
#4 Look before you post. Read the errata and the Frequently Asked Questions files, both available from the Gimmick's Gadgets section of the site. Search the forum to make sure Steve (or someone else) hasn't already answered your question when somebody else asked earlier. In fact, you may want to pose your question to the general rules forum first, to see if a helpful fellow player can give you a quick answer.
So feel free to ask questions about how gravity control interacts with shrinking or how many progressions of a certain feat are required for a specifc effect or any other game mechanic oriented question.
If you choose to disregard these guidelines you may find your thread has been moved to a more appropriate forum by one of the moderators.
Happy posting!
Official Rules Questions Guidelines (READ BEFORE POSTING)
Ask M&M 2e rules questions that your fellow gamers can't answer. Only Mutants & Masterminds Line Developer (and creator) Steve Kenson can post replies. He visits the boards in between projects and convention appearances so please be patient!

"What if a person isn't supposed to be alone, isn't supposed to have glory on his own, but rather get glory from the God who loves him? What if, in the same way the sun feeds plants, God's glory gives us life? What if our value exists because God takes pleasure in us?" ~ Donald Miller
If I am honest with myself, if we are all honest with ourselves, on any given day at any given moment, I operate as if I have glory on my own. What I mean is at some point during the day, and usually at multiple points, I have an interaction with another person in the world around me and my words or deeds are founded in my belief that I am more important, smarter or better than the other person in some way. I'll give you an example: I struggle with anger when I drive. If someone is going to slow I get frustrated and move in close to try and get them to speed up. If someone cuts me off, I'll swear (either out loud or in my head) at them and shake my head. But why? What gets me so angry? On the surface I would probably say, "Well, they just shouldn't have done that" or "it was dangerous", but the truth goes deeper. The truth is when I get angry on the road it is usually because I feel disrespected, like the offending party doesn't give a crap about my existence, is barely aware of it or worse, is totally aware of it and yet values their own over mine.
I think this dynamic, this feeling of self-worth and self-righteousness is our misplaced need for the love of God playing itself out in our lives. Instead of seeking God and finding our worth in the fact He loves us, we constantly seek the approval and justification of our existence from other people. And when someone doesn't approve, or doesn't notice our worth we get very angry. I know this is true of me anyways.
In San Francisco, many people when asked if all humans have equal worth would say yes. Which I suppose is good, we do and it's nice they think that. The problem is, for many, this is just lip service. They may say it and even think they believe it and yet live their lives as if they don't believe it. For some, all humans have equal worth as long as their opinions line up with a certain political party or religious ideal. For others, all humans have equal rights until those equal rights infringe on their own private lives. And I bet if your follow up question was, "Well, why do they all have equal worth" you probably would get a pretty rambling answer.
But I think Donald Miller is onto something here. I think what gives people equal worth is the fact that God loves each one of us, not how much money we make, or how much we are adored by those around us, or how talented we are. I happen to believe this and I also happen to forget this on an hourly basis. My belief that God's glory and love alone is what gives all humans worth is swell and dandy until someone drifts into my driving lane while yammering away on their cell phone at which point my red-faced cursing would seem to suggest, actually Josh, you really believe you are more valuable than that person. This is all very true and very convicting. I often am no better than Clamence in Camus' The Fall when he says, "I could live happily only on condition that all individuals on earth…were turned toward me, eternally in suspense, devoid of independent life….doomed in short to sterility until the day I should deign to favor them,".
And yet Jesus has changed all of this. Jesus' very presence on earth, his life, his death and his resurrection were all confirmation, proof if you will, of just how valuable we are to God. Not because we have any inherent worth or value in ourselves, but because a perfect God loves us perfectly which makes us infinitely more valuable than if our worth was determined by ourselves. Imagine how radically changed your own life would be if you constantly lived your life through this reality. Imagine how changed your relationships would be, how changed your family would be, how changed your community would be, how changed your city or town would be, on and on until finally you come to how changed this whole world would be if the love of God for each person regardless of race, gender, age, or any other subdivision was known to everyone. If we all grasped how valuable we are and more importantly how valuable everyone else is in the eyes of God and how much He loves us and how it is this love that gives us value in the first place. My guess is this world would be a drastically transformed place. My guess is my own life would be a radically transformed one…and that is what I'm praying for, for this reality to really change not just my perspective but my heart. I'll let you know how it goes.
Driving, Worth and Existentialism: A Confession of Sorts
In The Big and The Small
-Luke 1:45
Faith in the Lord to accomplish what He has said, this is what the Lord desires. Faith in the big things: like one day we will be with our Lord with no pain and no sorrow, perfected on the new earth; and faith in the small things: like God called us to ministry in San Francisco and thus will provide the financial support to get us up there. Whether faith in the eternal or temporal the Lord values it the same, it is the state of the heart with which He is concerned.
Yet the faith in the big can inform and encourage our faith in the small and vice versa. If we truly believe God is who He says He is in His word we know that "The Lord of hosts has sworn: As I have planned so shall it be, and as I have purposed, so shall it stand." (Isaiah 14:24) We also know that "with Him there is no variation." (James 1:17) Therefore if we count sure our salvation in Christ, why should we be uncertain of His promises being accomplished in smaller ways. Additionally, if we have seen the Lord's faithfulness over and over again in our live in slighter circumstances why should we ever begin to doubt God's love for us or be half-convinced of His forgiveness?
We shouldn't, I shouldn't. I must stand today and say, "Lord I am as confident that you will get us up to San Francisco as I am that my name is written in Your Book of Life." This is what God desires; blessed are those who believe what the Lord has said will be accomplished in all circumstances.
Does God Care About Sports?
These are not profound (or well written) epiphanies, but rather, random thoughts I had while watching Sportscenter one morning, so please excuse the lack of structure (and closure) in this post. Think of these as merely fun things to think about.
1) Does God care about sports?...short answer, No. There are days when I hear athletes often thanking God for their teams win, or their performance on the field and think, "God doesn't care about your stupid football game." Maybe it is a bit cold hearted, but excuse me if I have a bit of a problem thinking of God as intently concerned with the outcome of a sports game when there are wars, genocide, famines and diseases ravishing the world. At the same time, I do think God gives people the ability to perform excellently in sports and is glorified when they do. It is an interesting contrast: yes, as a God believing athlete, you should give praise to God for the talents He has given you, but you also shouldn't be so naïve as to think God cares if your team wins or not. God doesn't take sides.
2) Sport is a common, unifying thread throughout all humanity, no matter the culture, country or continent, sport or competition is everywhere. Even skinny hipsters race their fixies. Sport or competition seems to be inherently part of what it means to be human. Why is that? For one, I think it allows individuals to identify with a united community and allows very different people to be of "one mind and one spirit", to quote Philippians. Of course that can be a good or bad thing. On the one hand, being a fan is always a form of tribalism and othering which in the worst cases can lead to violence and actual hatred of other humans simply because they support a team you despise. On the other hand, sports can unify a community in a profoundly positive way. Think of Nelson Mandela, using the South African Rugby team, a team that symbolized apartheid in every way so much so that black South Africans always cheered for whoever was playing them. Mandela used the team to unify a nation on the brink of a race war. In that instance, I think God really was on the side of South Africa in the Rugby World Cup. As weird as it may sound, I think there are times when God wills a side to victory, not because they other team is so evil, but because a victory would redeem or heal a particular community. Is this always the case? Of course not, but I think it happens once in a blue moon.
3) One of my friends had a profound thought while at a Dodger game once. He, a twenty-something, white guy was in the bathroom on a scorching hot day at The Ravine. It was so hot, he took off his shirt and put it under running water in the sink. At the sink next to him was a huge, Latino dude with tattoos everywhere. As he rinsed his shirt, the man next to him said, "Yo homes, that's a good idea!" and proceeded to take off his shirt and do the same and the two started talking and had a conversation about the Dodgers. It was two profoundly different people, who would have never talked to each other in any other situation, connecting and having a shared experience of being a fan. My friend began to think about how the Church is similarly a community of people for whom the common denominator is Jesus, not personality, or interests, or gender, or ethnicity. I thought it was an interesting and valuable insight and one I plan to reflect on the next time I am at a Dodger game.
So what do you think?
