In the midst of lively, colourful menu tiles that spin with a blow into the microphone and play charming tunes when selected, many 3DS's are littered with other tiles that are glaringly less interesting. They don't play charming animations on the top screen, and when selected, the greeting is nothing more than a little "ping" sound and a grainy monochromatic display. So why is it that some find themselves visiting these tiles more than any of the system's retail games; titles that have been custom made to take advantage of the device's unique abilities?
We're all sitting on the most powerful handheld on the market at the moment, one that's capable of producing visuals that literally pop out of the screen, and yet some spend the majority of their time with the system playing two-dimensional, monochromatic Game Boy games. Continuing the retro theme, what's the top selling 3DS retail game? The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. The system's latest big release? Star Fox 64 3D. When the 3DS was unveiled two years ago at E3 2010, it felt like a glimpse of the future. Now it's here and many are clearly already looking backwards. Gazing longingly, nostalgically at the past. In figurative and literal terms, a large group of us, as gamers, are obsessed with gaming in black and white.
Nintendo these days is sometimes portrayed as an out-of-touch, salivating, money-hungry corporation that would rather repackage its old games than deliver long-time gamers new and exciting experiences. But Nintendo isn't shoving these games down our throats. Ocarina of Time 3D has sold well around the globe, and the introduction of the Virtual Console on Wii in 2006 was so well-embraced that it, arguably, helped prompt a retro movement whose effects transcended to every gaming platform on the market. Nintendo tried to give us new experiences: Wii Sports Resort, Wii Music and Steel Diver, for example. By and large, it seems that many gamers couldn't look past their simplistic presentations long enough to appreciate the depth and creativity they offered, so they were often maligned as being "too casual" or "too boring."
And yet, at the same time some of us embrace the simplistic presentations of retro titles from the Game Boy, like Gargoyle's Quest, and laud the slower pacing of games like ExciteBike as ahead of their time. Nintendo fans often beg for new experiences, but ignore games like Steel Diver and send Ocarina of Time 3D to the top of the charts, while downloading every half-decent Game Boy game to grace the 3DS Virtual Console.
It's not necessarily because of a lack of great new experiences at retail; Nintendo is currently just as obsessed with their past as many of their fans, and not because the present is uninteresting or the future isn't exciting. Even the latest confirmed Nintendo retail games for the coming year show a desire to move forward with modernised versions of classic franchises. Nintendo, quite simply, has a heritage that they're proud of, and they want to share that with us. These games are worth remembering.
The fact that some spend most of their time on these shiny new handhelds playing monochromatic Game Boy games is evidence of this. Maybe they're downloaded for nostalgia's sake, because they've been played before; maybe some download them because they haven't played them before and wish to gain an understanding/appreciation for an era missed out on. But mostly, these games are just great. Not every title, obviously, but examples such as Super Mario Land, Kirby's Dream Land, Donkey Kong - in many eyes these games are brilliantly crafted, and they showcase everything we still love about the Big N. Created for a technically underpowered console, these titles couldn't rely on visuals or complexity to be successful. "Charm" could not be faked with bright colours and catchy tunes; it had to be genuinely and tightly executed with gameplay that felt charming and that could be easily accessible to even non-gamers. These games were arguably a success because of their restrictions, not in spite of them. Link's Awakening might have been bigger and prettier on a more powerful console, but in turn it would lose the child-like simplicity that makes its world so compelling.
If that all sounds familiar, that's because it is. These titles may be downloaded for a kick of nostalgia, and Nintendo may have released them because they know that they'll sell, but we at Nintendo Life like to think that they released them for another reason: because these games are reminders that their current strategy, despite its criticisms from gamers and critics alike, works. The Wii is technically an underpowered console, and its games are often written off as overly simplistic or visually outdated. But 20 years from now we'll be downloading Wii games from the online stores of our new, mind-controlled Nintendo console and wondering how we ever let games like Little King's Story and Excitebots pass us by. Gamers with a love for retro gaming will always be looking back just as much as they look forward; always obsessed with gaming in black and white.
There's nothing wrong with looking back; it's just that we Nintendo fans have a nasty habit of ignoring the great things that happen in the present. If we genuinely want new experiences from our favourite developer, we have to actually support those games when they come around and get past the idea that any game that has a metascore of less than 80 isn't worth our time. Gaming has progressed faster, arguably, than any entertainment medium in history. And as the great prophet Ferris Beuler once said, "life can move pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around every once and a while, you might miss it."

Joslin Alumni Connection
Dear Joslin Alumni,
Welcome to the new website for alumni of Joslin research laboratories and clinic! During my travels through the U.S. and many countries around the world, I have the pleasure of seeing Joslin alumni, some who were at Joslin in the 1960s.
It is always fun to discuss your experience at Joslin, and many of you expressed the desire to reconnect. Thus, we have created an area on our Joslin website specifically for alumni who had their training here. In addition, we have arranged for Joslin alumni to have a permanent email address to facilitate easy communication with faculty members at the Joslin Diabetes Center.
I hope you will take this opportunity to register and reconnect with Joslin.
In the near future, we will post news regarding Joslin research and clinic, and hope to set-up an active exchange website with our alumni. Some of these activities will include our annual reception at the American Diabetes Association, visits by Joslin faculty members to various countries in which we have many alumni, educational events at Joslin such as symposiums and lectures which you can attend.
I hope you will take this opportunity to register and become part of our alumni network. If you have suggestions please do not hesitate to post them through this site using the email address that will be assigned. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
George L. King, M.D.

ESPN's Masters Coverage has mostly enjoyable today, with Scott Van Pelt seemingly right at home covering all the yawwwwn thrilling action and excitement down at Augusta. It's safe to say that if Tiger's not in contention during the final round, the whole wall-to-wall coverage is a colossal failure.
Last night, ESPN featured a little segment about a woman named, Jennifer Brown from Berkeley, who deduced through a series of smart-person algorithms and formulas that every single tournament Tiger Woods enters, the field plays one stroke over their course average. When he's on fire, they play two strokes over. Slate dove into this heady little theory last January. Yes, Tiger is so good, his mere presence makes other people screw up.
At the end of day one , Tiger is at even par, and the leaders are Justin Rose and some guy named Trevor Immelman. Woods is, as every single media outlet reporting this event says time and time again, "lurking."

Cardinals sent down to defeat on walk-off in ninth
Wacha fans seven over 6 2/3 scoreless in duel with Reds' Cingrani
CINCINNATI -- Rare have been 1-0 games at Great American Ball Park, a hitters' haven since it opened in 2004. Over the first decade, only 11 such affairs were registered at the ballpark.
The Cardinals pushed the number to an even dozen in Monday's season opener, only to watch the Reds return the favor. In a game that started Wednesday and ended Thursday after rain delayed the first pitch by two hours and 40 minutes, the Reds snapped a 17-inning scoreless streak with a hit that also sparked a walk-off celebration.
The Reds' first run of the season came on a bases-loaded, ninth-inning single by Chris Heisey and was the only one they'd need. Cincinnati's 1-0 victory in front of what remained of a sellout crowd of 36,189 fans left the Cardinals unable to capitalize on a strong season debut by Michael Wacha.
"It's two nights in a row where starting pitching on both sides was outstanding, and not a lot of offense," said Matt Carpenter, who had a potential RBI hit snared by shortstop Zack Cozart to close the eighth. "We have to find ways to win these games."
The Cardinals rode Yadier Molina's solo homer to a win in the season opener, but have otherwise lacked timely hits. The Cardinals went 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position on Wednesday, and remain hitless in their first 10 such chances this season.
It was an especially forgettable evening for Matt Adams, who, after being picked off in the fifth, struck out to end the seventh and ninth innings with two runners aboard.
"We had a couple chances, but had a tough time stacking any offense on top of anything we got going," manager Mike Matheny said. "You just need the right one at the right time. They put it together when they had to."
Through 18 innings this week, the Cardinals have tallied eight hits and not advanced a runner to third, with the exception of Molina. Matheny dismissed the possibility that a lack of recent game play could have led to some issues with hitters' timing, though others found the suggestion plausible.
Because of a rained-out exhibition game last week and several scheduled off-days in Cincinnati, the Cardinals have played just twice since last Thursday.
"The beginning of the season is kind of like the beginning of Spring Training -- pitchers are usually a little ahead of the hitters," Carpenter said. "Nonetheless, the games still count, and we want to win these. We have to find a way to put some runs across the board."
The Reds hadn't done any better, but finally did break through against Carlos Martinez in the ninth. Out for a second inning of work, Martinez allowed consecutive singles to Ryan Ludwick and Todd Frazier. Both runners advanced on a sacrifice bunt.
An intentional walk brought up pinch-hitter Heisey, who promptly laced a single in left-center past a drawn-in infield.
"There's nothing like sitting around for about 10 hours," Heisey said, "and then getting one at-bat and doing something good."
"We get stuck in a spot where we have to pull a rabbit out of a hat there," Matheny added. "Carlos has the type of stuff to get that done. It just didn't happen tonight."
Though both starters had to first entertain a lengthy rain delay -- Wacha said he passed the time mainly by watching other games -- both were impressive in their debuts.
The Reds still haven't scored off a Cardinals starter this season. Adam Wainwright shut them out over seven innings on Monday, and Wacha followed that up with 6 2/3 scoreless innings. Wacha needed to be near perfect to hold serve against Reds lefty Tony Cingrani, who only twice let a runner move as far as second in his seven-inning start.
"You notice when he's putting up zeros, though, that you have to be sharper out there on the mound and be that much more stingy," Wacha said. "I had to go out and try to match zeros with him because he was throwing the ball really well."
Wacha has now pitched 16 2/3 scoreless innings with 16 strikeouts (after tallying seven on Thursday) against the Reds during his young Major League career. He'll draw Cincinnati in his next start, too, in Monday's home opener at Busch Stadium.
He expects to better when he takes the mound next.
"I got away with a lot of mistake pitches today," Wacha said. "Fastball command wasn't really how I wanted it to be."
The results, though, were, even if Cingrani's own strong start kept Wacha from notching his first win. The Cardinals' 2013 struggles against lefties havr been well-documented and spilled over for at least one night in this new season.
Cingrani carved up the Cardinals' lineup, striking out nine with a heavy reliance on his fastball and the timely inclusion of a slider. Carpenter described Cingrani as "as good as I've ever seen him," and the lefty left little opportunity for hitters to get comfortable as he fooled them with elevated fastballs and effectively wild command.
Cardinals hitters reached just twice through the first six innings.
"I was a little jacked up," Cingrani said. "It's the Cardinals and you want to win. They were coming out swinging and weren't putting too many good swings on it. [That] helped me out a little bit."
The Cardinals had their best opportunity to score once Cingrani's night was over. In the eighth, Kolten Wong drilled a one-out double to center field, and Carpenter believed he had an RBI hit on a two-strike pitch from Manny Parra. Instead, Cozart snagged it with a dive in shallow center.
"You have a feel for when you're hitting a ball and where you think it's going to drop based on where guys are, and I had a pretty good feeling that that one was going to land in there for a hit," Carpenter said. "But Cozart made a good play."

Deer Isle man charged in Bangor stabbing
BANGOR, Maine (AP) � Bangor, Maine, police say a 24-year-old Deer Isle man has been charged in the stabbing of another man outside a club in the city.
The victim of Wednesday's stabbing, a 26-year-old man from Newburgh, was treated by paramedics for cuts to his arm and upper torso and refused to be transported to a hospital.
Police say the stabbing took place in a parking lot, and they later arrested 24-year-old Walker Gaspar.
Police were told that Gaspar was asked to leave the Harlow Street club for being disorderly and trying to start a fight with another patron. The patron said that when he walked outside he was attacked by Gaspar.
Gaspar is charged with aggravated assault, reckless conduct and is in Penobscot County Jail.

Overview of Generics in C++/CLI
Generics are parameterized types supported by the common language runtime. A parameterized type is a type that is defined with an unknown type parameter that is specified when the generic is used.
Why Generics?
C++ supports templates and both templates and generics support parameterized types to create typed collection classes. However, templates provide compile-time parameterization. You cannot reference an assembly containing a template definition and create new specializations of the template. Once compiled, a specialized template looks like any other class or method. In contrast, generics are emitted in MSIL as a parameterized type known by the runtime to be a parameterized type; source code that references an assembly containing a generic type can create specializations of the generic type. For more information on the comparison of standard C++ templates and generics, see Generics and Templates (C++/CLI).
Generic Functions and Types
Class types, as long as they are managed types, may be generic. An example of this might be a
List class. The type of an object in the list would be the type parameter. If you needed a
List class for many different types of objects, before generics you might have used a
List that takes
System::Object as the item type. But that would allow any object (including objects of the wrong type) to be used in the list. Such a list would be called an untyped collection class. At best, you could check the type at runtime and throw an exception. Or, you might have used a template, which would lose its generic quality once compiled into an assembly. Consumers of your assembly could not create their own specializations of the template. Generics allow you to create typed collection classes, say
List<int> (read as "List of int") and
List<double> ("List of double") which would generate a compile-time error if you tried to put a type that the collection was not designed to accept into the typed collection. In addition, these types remain generic after they are compiled.
A description of the syntax of generic classes may be found in Generic Classes (C++/CLI). A new namespace, System.Collections.Generic, introduces a set of parameterized collection types including Dictionary<TKey,TValue>, List<T> and LinkedList<T>.
Both instance and static class member functions, delegates, and global functions may also be generic. Generic functions may be necessary if the function's parameters are of an unknown type, or if the function itself must work with generic types. In many cases where
System::Object may have been used in the past as a parameter for an unknown object type, a generic type parameter may be used instead, allowing for more type-safe code. Any attempt to pass in a type that the function was not designed for would be flagged as an error at compile time. Using
System::Object as a function parameter, the inadvertent passing of an object that the function wasn't intended to deal with would not be detected, and you would have to cast the unknown object type to a specific type in the function body, and account for the possibility of an InvalidCastException. With a generic, code attempting to pass an object to the function would cause a type conflict so the function body is guaranteed to have the correct type.
The same benefits apply to collection classes built on generics. Collection classes in the past would use
System::Object to store elements in a collection. Insertion of objects of a type that the collection was not designed for was not flagged at compile time, and often not even when the objects were inserted. Usually, an object would be cast to some other type when it was accessed in the collection. Only when the cast failed would the unexpected type be detected. Generics solves this problem at compile time by detecting any code that inserts a type that doesn't match (or implicitly convert to) the type parameter of the generic collection.
For a description of the syntax, see Generic Functions (C++/CLI).
Terminology Used With Generics
Type Parameters
A generic declaration contains one or more unknown types known as type parameters. Type parameters are given a name which stands for the type within the body of the generic declaration. The type parameter is used as a type within the body of the generic declaration. The generic declaration for
List<T> contains the type parameter T.
Type Arguments
The type argument is the actual type used in place of the type parameter when the generic is specialized for a specific type or types. For example, int is the type argument in
List<int>. Value types and handle types are the only types allowed in as a generic type argument.
Constructed Type
A type constructed from a generic type is referred to as a constructed type. A type not fully specified, such as
List<T> is an open constructed type; a type fully specified, such as
List<double>, is a closed constructed type or specialized type. Open constructed types may be used in the definition of other generic types or methods and may not be fully specified until the enclosing generic is itself specified. For example, the following is a use of an open constructed type as a base class for a generic:
// generics_overview.cpp
// compile with: /clr /c
generic <typename T>
ref class List {};
generic <typename T>
ref class Queue : public List<T> {};
A constraint is a restriction on the types that may be used as a type parameter. For example, a given generic class could accept only classes that inherit from a specified class, or implement a specified interface. For more information, see Constraints on Generic Type Parameters (C++/CLI).
Reference Types and Value Types
Handles types and value types may be used as type arguments. In the generic definition, in which either type may be used, the syntax is that of reference types. For example, the
-> operator is used to access members of the type of the type parameter whether or not the type eventually used is a reference type or a value type. When a value type is used as the type argument, the runtime generates code that uses the value types directly without boxing the value types.
When using a reference type as a generic type argument, use the handle syntax. When using a value type as a generic type argument, use the name of the type directly.
// generics_overview_2.cpp
// compile with: /clr
generic <typename T>
ref class GenericType {};
ref class ReferenceType {};
value struct ValueType {};
int main() {
GenericType<ReferenceType^> x;
GenericType<ValueType> y;
Type Parameters
Type parameters in a generic class are treated like other identifiers. However, because the type is not known, there are restrictions on their use. For example, you cannot use members and methods of the type parameter class unless the type parameter is known to support these members. That is, to access a member through the type parameter, you must add the type that contains the member to the type parameter's constraint list.
// generics_overview_3.cpp
// compile with: /clr
interface class I {
void f1();
void f2();
ref struct R : public I {
virtual void f1() {}
virtual void f2() {}
virtual void f3() {}
generic <typename T>
where T : I
void f(T t) {
int main() {
f(gcnew R());
These restrictions apply to operators as well. An unconstrained generic type parameter may not use the
== and
!= operators to compare two instances of the type parameter, in case the type does not support these operators. These checks are necessary for generics, but not for templates, because generics may be specialized at runtime with any class that satisfies the constraints, when it is too late to check for the use of invalid members.
A default instance of the type parameter may be created by using the
() operator. For example:
T t = T();
T is a type parameter in a generic class or method definition, initializes the variable to its default value. If
T is a ref class it will be a null pointer; if
T is a value class, the object is initialized to zero. This is called a default initializer.

Tales of the data centre
Regcasts galore!
The Register produced some 25 webcasts in 2009, Today we present five of the best, all with a data centre or sysadmin bent, for your viewing delectation.
Not tried a Regcast yet? Give us a twirl and tune into some deep and meaningful conversation, Q&A sessions with Reg readers supplying the Qs, leavened with a pinch of humour.
Our pick list is below and we hope you'll find something that will get you up to speed on some of the critical IT issues of the day.
Beyond the hype
First up is a virtualisation extravaganza entitled Server Virtualisation for Hard-Nosed People : What's the Real ROI on Virtualisation?
This programme is largely based on on real-world research gathered in Reg reader workshops. In the webcast we clarify and quantifythe benefits of server virtualization on a production scale, and we ask how exactly such benefits can be achieved.
Surveying the estate
Our next cracker is called, The state of the x86 server estate. In this one-hour prog we consider the state of play in the server room, using recent research to understand just what are the forces on the x86 server environment, and how organizations are setting about dealing with these challenges.
Agile - or fragile?
For an overall boon to your data center knowledge base, try this one for size, a complete overview of everything you need to know about managing your data center efficiently and delivering proper benefits to your organization: The Register Agile Data Center Summit.
This event describes - with a little help from Freeform Dynamics, Dell, VMWare and Intel - and debates strategies and solutions that help IT departments continue to deliver market leading services for their business. If you are responsible for IT, or want to understand more about improving IT effectiveness in your organization, this is one is a corker.
Thoroughly modern
For most of you, it's not just going to be about managing within the data centre. you're probably having to contend with balancing your data center needs with those of your desktop users and for that, we have just the fillip: The Thoroughly Modern Desktop? : The benefits and challenges of keeping an up to date desktop estate. In this webcast we ask, just how valuable is it to have an up-to-date desktop estate? What are the advantages, both in business and IT management terms, and what is the cost impact? What capabilities are available in modern hardware, and how can they best be exploited?
So that's a virtual end-to-end learning feast for you. But there's just one more that might tickle your fancy: Service level monitoring and management: Delivering service excellence across the network.
During this one-hour event we explore the benefits that SLA monitoring and management systems can provide at a time when IT systems need to be more dynamic in response to changing business demands, such as the growth of SaaS and other applications outside of the data centre. ®

Life of the party: Crafaik left mark on business, politics
Those mourning the death of J. Michael Crafaik III, the entrepreneur and libertarian political leader who took his own life last week at age 37, say he'll be remembered for his sharp mind and his loyalty to friends even as he struggled with the demons of bipolar disorder.
"The Michael that I knew was one of the smartest, kindest human beings I've ever had the privilege of knowing," says Eric Strzepek, who befriended Crafaik in the eighth grade and graduated with him from Charlottesville High School.
Crafaik was such a top student, Strzepek recalls, that he earned 5s–- the top possible score–- on all of his Advanced Placement exams, and was named a National Merit Scholar. At the same time, Strzepek says, his friend could pique authority figures with a disdain for "silly" rules.
"If there was a beautiful 75- to 80-degree day in February, he, I, and another friend were more likely to be found playing basketball at the Dell or thowing a football at Chris Greene or doing any number of other things that we felt were more important than being in school," Strzepek recalls.
Crafaik remained in Charlottesville to attend University of Virginia, where he double majored in physics and Russian, pledged Pi Kappa Phi fraternity, and used his hometown knowledge to show others a good time.
"He always looked out for guys from out of town," says Brian Smith, a New York native who was Crafaik's fraternity brother, ultimate frisbee teammate, and roommate for three years. "He took us to good spots, places around the city, parks, cool places to hike."
In the early 1990s, Crafaik's father, John Crafaik, owned the popular 24-hour eatery Littlejohn's, as well as an upstairs music venue called Jazz, a concept that the younger Crafaik started thinking about improving while still in college.
In 1994, a year after his graduation, he opened Michael's Bistro in the former Jazz location, offering fine dining and local music along with a then-brand new concept: microbrews.
Besides encouraging faculty to patronize the restaurant and introducing craft-made beer to a still Budweiser-centric populace, Crafaik designed a wine list for budget-conscious diners and organized beer-tasting dinner parties.
Yet Crafaik also had another party in mind: the Republican Party.
"Most people only know him as a conservative bucking the tide in liberal Charlottesville," says author Doug Hornig. "The truth is that he was one of the most open-minded people politically that I've ever known. He was very interested in politics as a vehicle to change things for the better."
By 1997, Hornig says, Crafaik was hosting lively Wednesday night political discussions with fellow libertarians at the Bistro. "Michael," says Hornig, "believed that government was out of control because it had lost ability to trust people with their own freedom."
Backing his political views with action, Strzepek says, Crafaik donated to charities and volunteered for various local nonprofits including Literacy Volunteers of America, teaching immigrants to read.
"He believed very much that rather than government taking a direct role in addressing these problems," says Strzepek, "that private citizens should and could do these things better."
Although Crafaik was defeated in his two City Council runs–- in 1996 and 1998–- he became chair of Charlottesville's Republican party in 2000. The night of his victory, Crafaik was involved in a dust-up at Mono Loco restaurant, in which he filed a criminal assault charge against the Republican leader he ousted.
If Crafaik was beginning to show signs of what would become his greatest battle, friends and family say they weren't aware that there was something seriously wrong.
"He was always a little hyper, but there's nothing wrong with that," says Crafaik's maternal half-brother Chris Strong. "He just had a lot of energy."
Strong, 44, says the seven-year age difference created some childhood distance, but as adults both worked hard at the relationship. The two spent a summer together in Seattle, and three years ago Strong moved back to Charlottesville with his wife and three daughters, planning to partner up with his brother to open an organic grocery store downtown.
Crafaik loved the idea of a family business and dreamed–- after childhood visits with an uncle on a commune–- of a "family compound," Strong says.
"He liked the sense of community, the spirit of dependence on one another," says Strong. "He had a big heart, he wanted to bring people together."
The business plan didn't work out, and Strong would later buy Littlejohn's from John Crafaik. Michael Crafaik's problems, meanwhile, were beginning to mount.
In 2005, Crafaik–- who had stopped working at the Bistro for several years–- was involved in an altercation with an employer in a heating and air conditioning business. Prior to his acquittal, Crafaik entered a Williamsburg substance abuse treatment center, but he checked himself out before completing a court-prescribed 30-day treatment.
His family now says the appropriate diagnosis–- bipolar disorder–- came too late. As many as two million Americans suffer from the disorder, and Crafaik, his family says, was one of them.
Formerly known as manic-depressive illness, bipolar disorder causes sufferers to experience extreme highs–- mania–- followed by extreme lows. According to the leading statistical manual used by psychiatrists, the manic phase can include sleeplessness, hallucinations, and delusions– while the depressive phase is often accompanied by thoughts of suicide.
Last year, Strong remembers, Crafaik confessed that he'd considered suicide, but promised his worried older brother the thoughts were "just a fantasy." Still, the anguish was obvious.
"He said, 'I'm in a lot of pain,'" Strong recalls. "'I'm suffering.'"
Although Strong says Crafaik had taken various medications, he began resisting treatment, saying it wasn't helping and that he didn't want to be "medicated Mike."
This past summer, Strong says, Crafaik entered a manic phase during which he had a disagreement with his Bistro business partner. After the restaurant briefly closed, it reopened under Crafaik's management with a new staff. Strong says Crafaik's mania ended, and in the six weeks or so before his death, a quieter person emerged.
"He seemed like a ghost," Strong says, "a ghost of Michael."
As with any disease, such as cancer, Strong says, "you have to be able to treat yourself and be willing to treat yourself." One of the toughest elements of treating bipolar disorder, he says, is convincing the sufferer to stick with treatment. Strong says the family had met with Crafaik's doctors and had tried to intervene, but "we didn't know what to do."
In spite of the depressive phase, Crafaik gave nothing but compassion and thoughtful conversation a few weeks ago when he ran into an old friend at Miller's restaurant and the two walked around the Downtown Mall catching up.
"I saw him, gave him a big hug like nothing had ever passed," recalls the friend, Tayloe Emery. "I never saw anything that gave me any reason to believe that this tragedy would unfold this way."
On Thursday, December 11, according to Chris Strong, Crafaik awoke and performed a typically generous gesture he enjoyed: making breakfast in bed for his fianc©e. He told her he was going to the Bistro, but he never showed up for work.
Strong says the family later learned he'd instead taken a gun to Sugar Hollow, a popular hiking and swimming spot northwest of White Hall. "Just a fantasy" had become a horrific and heartbreaking reality.
Crafaik, who survived on life support until early Sunday morning, December 14, still had one act of generosity.
"He was an organ donor," says Strong, adding that doctors were able to identify matches for his two kidneys, so "somebody's living because he died."
And that, say friends, is how Crafaik would have wanted it.
A memorial service for Michael Crafaik will be held at the Thomas Jefferson Unitarian Universalist Church on Rugby Road at 2pm on Friday, December 19. Chris Strong says those wishing to make donations in Crafaik's name to benefit research toward finding a cure for bipolar disorder can do so at www.dbsalliance.org. And the family is currently organizing the Michael Crafaik Ultimate Frisbee Tournament to be held sometime next year.

Regardless of what was written about the earlier Hook piece, I think this was an exceptionally sensitive and sympathetic portrayal of someone who, by all accounts, was a great guy. It treats manic-depressive disorder as the disease that it is and not as a weakness or character flaw. Nice job, Courteney.
Thanks Courtney.
Compassionate, fair,and hopefully will lead to a lot of money being raised to fight this awful disease.
Thanks Courtney for doing the right thing. This is exactly what I was trying to convey in my last post. I know alot of people with bi-polar and it's a disorder not a defect of character. Selfishly, I wish he was still around. He's still out there only now he is fully able to eminate the loving, compassionate, and bright soul he is and will always be!
Smart man...caring man, it seems. Tragic how much our brain and mind can torture us with brilliance and pain at the same time. Didn't know him, but seems like the world will be worse without Michael. He now has peace.
I am deeply saddened by this loss. Being a survivor of suicide myself (my mom died when I was 20)...I know and understand the pain that friends and family are going through. I wish I could say that things would get better but even after 15 years it hasn't gotten any better. Please know that there are groups out there that can help with this. I was never one for groups so to speak but its nice to be around people that have gone through the same thing. I met Michael briefly at Melanie and Eric's wedding. He was a very nice man and his suffering is over. And yes Eric, I hope and pray that this piece will bring to light a very deblitating disease and one that knows no bounds. May thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
beautiful and very touching!

Alley Cat racing rolls back in to Boulder Messenger-style bike races bring fixed-gear riders together By Jenn Fields fields Colorado Daily, July 1, 2010 Every once in a while, University of Colorado student Kalin Puent rolls up to a bike rack on campus to park his fixie and someone takes note of the unique spoke card stuck in his wheel. "Someone will read it and go, 'Yeah, I was supposed to go to that'" bike race, Puent said. "That" bike race was the winter Alley Cat Race in Boulder. Puent earned the spoke card by being the fastest racer not using brakes on his bike for the race, which, like most alley cat races, mimicked a day in the life of a bike messenger. The otherwise unidentifiable spoke card is part of the culture of these unsanctioned, urban races that are usually put on by fixed-gear bike enthusiasts (though fixies are not required) and usually carry a theme. The next Boulder Alley Cat Race, themed Bac to the Future, starts at 2 p.m. Saturday at Folsom Field. "Alley Cat's an underground bike race through the city," said Adam Mork, the organizer. "There's checkpoints you have to go to, and they might make you do something there, like carry something, a task." "As far as the route, it's up to the rider. That's a big part of who wins -- who has the best route." Mork started organizing alley cats in 2008, while he was a student at CU and working part-time delivering sandwiches by bike for Jimmy John's. (He started with a road bike but quickly traded it in for a fixed-gear.) This Saturday's race will be the first since winter. "It's summertime, and I haven't done one in a while," Mork said. "I'm just doing it to bring people together." Alley cat races tend to have different prizes than sanctioned road or mountain-bike races. Pabst Blue Ribbon was a prize at a recent race; it was part of the theme. At another race, Mork made the Tour de France a theme and gave out Tour-inspired spoke cards, like a climbing one for the first person to a checkpoint on a hill. The spoke cards (Mork made them himself for this one) are a sort of badge of honor among fixed-gear riders. "A lot of kids do it just as a joke," Puent said of the spoke cards. "I mean I've had Pokemon cards in mine before." "But it's a way of representing street credit, almost." The last race, in winter, was tough and had sparse turnout because of snowstorms the day before and day of. But Mork's expecting more riders for this race. "I think there will be about 30 people racing, which will be one of my best turnouts." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mess media - http://www.messmedia.org/ Bryant Watch - http://bryantwatch.wordpress.com/ ===========================================


text: Dying for more alternate homoerotic history of the Spartans from Zack Snyder? Well, your wish is his command. Today at Comic-Con, Snyder announced his next project, a sequel to 300. Frank Miller is penning a comic called Xerxes that the movie will be based on, and Snyder is about to start work on it with his writing partner from 300, Kurt Johnstad. This is Sparta - again!

Tut was barely 18 when he died young for Pharaohs, who always enjoyed the best nutrition and medical care in what was one of the ancient world's most civilized kingdoms. What's more, he is thought to have been the son of a controversial in some quarters, hated leader, which would have made Tut controversial too. But more than anything it was the state of the boy's tomb its diminutive size, its unfinished condition that suggested he had died unexpectedly. All of this raised suspicions that his demise may have been an unnatural, even violent one. And now a new case is being made that supports those who have long surmised that he was, in fact, murdered.
More than 3,300 years after Tutankhamen was entombed, Greg Cooper, a former FBI profiler and chief of police in Provo, Utah, and Mike King, director of the Ogden, Utah, police department's crime-analysis unit, have tackled the case at the request of British film producer Anthony Geffen. Working with Geffen's London-based company, Atlantic Productions, the two investigators have used a wealth of sources including books, scholarly papers, photographs of Tut's tomb, X rays of the mummy itself and interviews with contemporary experts to apply modern forensic science to the ancient case. So well did the techniques work that the two sleuths believe they have proof of a murder as well as a pretty good idea who did it. The Discovery Channel will air a two-hour documentary on their investigation Oct. 6.
Prominent Egyptologists, however, say the conclusions are nonsense. Cooper and King's work, they argue, is merely warmed-over theories with a dash of forensic science thrown in. This field has been plowed before, they note, and has yielded nothing conclusive. "People love to speculate," says Marianne Eaton-Krauss, a Tutankhamen expert at the Berlin Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities. "But there isn't any evidence."
Whoever is right, it's clear that when British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the tomb 80 years ago, he found a grave like no other. As Pharaonic burial sites go, Tut's was slapdash. Not only did its modest size suggest it had been intended for a nonroyal, but it was also hastily decorated, with wall paintings marred by splashes of paint nobody ever cleaned up. Some of the elaborate artifacts that so captivated the world appear to have been obtained from a funerary warehouse, since close examination reveals that other people's names were erased from them and Tut's name was applied. And the embalming was marred by buckets of unguents dumped over the mummy at the end. Was that part of the ritual or a crude attempt at a cover-up?
To try to solve the mystery, Carter commissioned an anatomical study of the corpse in 1925 that turned out to be less autopsy than butchery. The unguents that saturated the mummy's bandages glued them in place, which meant the body was damaged as it was removed from the sarcophagus. Studying the corpse literally limb by limb, the first anatomist found nothing suspicious. More than 40 years later, however, in 1968, a University of Liverpool researcher received permission to X-ray the mummy and discovered some intriguing clues: there was a sliver of bone floating in the brain cavity and a dense area at the base of the skull that may have been a blood clot, suggesting a severe perhaps deliberately lethal blow to the back of the head.
To shed sharper light on the problem, Cooper and King obtained the original X rays and took them to a medical examiner, a radiologist and a neurologist. The experts quickly spotted more clues. Abnormalities in the thin bones above Tut's eye sockets may be the kind of fractures that can occur when the head strikes the ground during a backward fall and the brain snaps forward. What's more, the vertebrae in Tut's neck were fused a sign of a musculoskeletal malformation called Klippel-Feil syndrome. People with Klippel-Feil cannot turn their heads without moving the entire torso, an infirmity that's impossible to hide and makes the sufferer highly vulnerable to injury from a fall or a push. "It was like having a bowling ball on top of a pool cue," says King.
To take advantage of Tut's apparent frailty, an ancient criminal, like a contemporary one, would need means, opportunity and motive. Using these criteria, "we initially looked at the entire Egyptian empire," Cooper says. "But we quickly narrowed the focus to Tut's inner circle." Eventually, they winnowed the field to just four suspects: Maya, Tut's chief treasurer; Horemheb, his military commander; Ankhesenamen, his wife; and Ay, his Prime Minister. (Warning: plot spoiler ahead.)

At 10:00 on @keyetv: meet new @SU__Baseball assistant coach Jeff Kent. (Yes, the 17 yr #MLB vet.) pic.twitter.com/0uj9pthmRq— Adam Winkler (@WinklerKEYE) February 7, 2014
Retired second baseman Jeff Kent vowed to never coach Little League. But now, in addition to coaching his son's team, Kent's helping out as a volunteer assistant for the Southwestern University team in Georgetown, TX.
Kent lasted 22 days on Survivor. We'll see how he fares on a college diamond.

In 2009, the Islanders themselves took over operational control of the arena, managing all bookings that came through, according to Let There Be Lighthouse. SMG still maintains responsiblity for the day-to-day management of the facility.
However, it is not clear as to who was responsibile for the security mess last night. Many times for an event such as this the building manager(s) simply play landlord and rent out the facility to the promoter, leaving the promoter to bear responsibility for security, ticketing, and other activities. For example, Disney on Ice brings their own concessionaires and many music acts have their own security teams.
The Islanders have not yet returned a request for comment.
11:55AM: DubStep.net has gotten in contact with Louis Branchinelli, the event's promoter. His company is, you guessed it, the aptly named Lou B Industries.
"Kids were showing up drunk. They were drinking...somewhere. When a kid shows up a drunk and is puking in the parking lot, what can we do about that? They weren't serving minors alcohol inside the venue."
Also if you're looking for a refund, you should contact your ticket broker. This person says they got a refund from StubHub.
10:39 AM: Newsday on the substance use; "Molly and ecstasy were two drugs that witnesses noticed being used as well as alcohol disguised in bottles of Gatorade."
10:20AM: Thank you to those sharing their stories in the comments. Alexandra, who attended the event sheds some light on what happened:
A short time after 11 during Alesso's set, the music was cut, the lights turned on, and an announcement along the lines of "The police have requested that we shut down tonights concert, please leave the building." Many were so surprised by this, people were trying to figure out if the announcement was a joke, because many people at the time did not realize the tragic events that were taking place in the building. Although, once we left the building, it was extremely evident that many things had gone wrong; at least 11 ambulances, 3 firetrucks, and a countless number of cop cars lined the building, followed by a low flying helicopter overhead, as well as police on horseback. The major downfall of this event was the extreme lack of security at the doors and inside the concert. In case your wondering the most disturbing thing I had to witness last night; it was probably the two young teenagers having public sex on the dance floor. That pretty much sums it up.
Christian tells of security lapse at the event:
I've been to I can't tell you how many Islanders games and concerts at the Coliseum over the years and have never seen such chaos. Normally when you attend Islanders game at the Coliseum you get a full pat down and bags are searched thoroughly, which I always thought was comical when MSG pretty much lets you in without such a hassle. None the less, that did not happen last night... I ask where to enter and was told to go back outside and find GATE 1. Well we see people just filing in at any open door next to the box office and security was too busy escorting people out to notice. No ticket takers, or ushers. Utter chaos.
10:05AM: MyFoxNY has confirmed the helicopter report.
Original Story: This week the Coliseum held the only two events it will host this month, as it is without Islander games thanks to the NHL continuing its lockout. The first was the Knicks/Nets pre-season game earlier in the week. The other was 'Haunted Coliseum' an electronic music concert that attracted teens and young adults from around the area on Saturday night. And apparently all hell broke loose. The New York Post reports that "at least 50" people were hospitalized for drug or alcohol overdose and the event was shut down by authorities some time after 10pm.
Don't worry, it gets so much crazier from there.
The tumblr for NYC EMS Buff, which appears to get its updates from EMS radio reports, updated around 10:30pm that Nassau County was requesting assistance from Suffolk and New York City. I don't know what it usually takes for emergency services to request help from other counties, but that sounds pretty serious.
Later on, the NYC EMS Buff page updated with this:
Approx 80 patients transported from Nassau Coliseum. Mostly intox. The pilot of a civilian helicopter was also arrested for an unauthorized landing.
So, in addition to what must have been a wild scene of dozens of people being rushed to the hospital, someone freaking landed a private, non-EMS helicopter in the Coliseum parking lot.
Twitter is also a buzz with a thousand different unconfirmed reports of very serious injuries, which I won't touch on until there's something from a significant news source.
But seriously, what the hell?

Welcome! This site is made available as a public service. Its purpose is to provide a gateway to tax resources available on the World Wide Web. The information is organized by subject area. Each link in the tables will take you to the subject area where you will find the available resources. I have kept the look and feel of the site simple in order that the pages load as fast as possible. I keep the number of links by subject to a level that will provide meaningful content.
Whenever a user may benefit from a tax form and its instructions, I have included a link to that form. All of these links will be colored green. Under each subject area you will usually find links to IRS guidance or publications that are relevant to that subject. Please pay careful attention to the dates of any IRS form or publication. Most documents are updated to current status toward the end of the calendar year and at the beginning of January. The IRS also starts to release the next year's information forms (e.g., 1099s) at the beginning of the calendar year.
There are four special pages identified as Federal Tax Library, California Tax Library, Foreign & International Taxation and Retirement Resources. Each of these pages provide links to relevant subject material for understanding federal tax law, California tax law, taxation of nonresident aliens and US citizens and residents abroad and taxation of retirement income. For example, on the Federal Tax Library page you will find links to practically every form of published guidance available from the IRS and the federal courts.
Some of the links, especially those for forms and instructions, point to documents in the Adobe® Acrobat® "pdf" format. Whenever you see this icon , or the letters "pdf", you will know that the document requires a "pdf" viewer. All web browsers have the ability to view pdf files. If you want or need another pdf viewer application, you can find a list of freeware pdf viewers at Wikipedia.
I generally verify the accuracy of the links at least once a month. Each of my pages will contain the date that the links were last checked as well as the date that the page was changed.
A word of caution: Many of the sites that you may link to are owned by entities that are selling a service or a product. You should pay careful attention to the source of any information. The information provided here and at any of the links should not be construed as a substitute for professional tax services nor as advice. Please see my Disclaimer here.
Notice! Whenever changes in tax law occur, not all sites on the Web update their content on a timely basis. There remains a large body of data that does not reflect current law or thinking on the subject in question. This is especially true for the 2018 - 2025 tax changes as well as state income taxes. The only way to stay current on changes to state income taxes, is by checking with that state's tax authority. You can find links to every state at the Federation of Tax Administrators. For changes to federal law, you will find links to Public Laws containing new and/or changed tax provisions on my Tax Laws page. If you are interested in tax changes impacting 2018 and beyond go to the What's New link on my site. For a summary of the 2018 changes, just click on the link at the top of every page. If you have an interest in reviewing proposed legislation of the current US Congress that is tax related, you can try Congress.gov or KPMG's TaxNewsFlash.

Bungee Surfer necesitaba un nuevo diseño de otro y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 59 diseños de 26 diseñadores freelance.
We need a sticker that is easily recognizable. Something you would see in the rear window of a car. Something that would make you say "That dude's a surfer too".
Even Riverboards/ Even Surf Co.
EVEN is a surfing company based in Boise, Idaho. For those of you who maybe "international" on the site and don't know where Idaho is, it is not on a coast. No Ocean. Even Surfing company is a bungee surfing company. Bungee surfers ride small surfboards on rivers, shooting upstream at 30+ mph. No boat or motor. Bungee power. Bungee surfers use the current of the river to stretch a patented bungee system from 20 feet to 200 feet in length. Once the bungee system is fully stretched riders are "sling-shoted" upstream. Good riders can do all kinds of skateboarding tricks once riding upstream.
Bungee Surfing video -
Help us design a sticker that will help us spread our sport to the millions of land locked masses around the world.
We would like you to include both our "Board" logo and the "EVEN" logo in the sticker design. The phrase "SURF IDAHO!" would be a good thing to include on the sticker, but not a requirement. The logos can be downloaded at:
http://www.bungeesurfer.com/public/graphics.zipI did a contest on here a few years ago and I was amazed by the quality and quantity of great designs I received. I will be doing many more auctions on here soon - T-Shirts, Rack Cards, Business cards, etc.
I am on a tremendous rush on this design request. "I need it yesterday."
- Item 1...www.evensurf.com
- Would like to see some 3"x5" Oval, 4" Circle and 4"x4" Rectangle examples.
- The "Slashed Board" logo is my main logo. It should stand out on the sticker.
- Surf Co. or Surfing Company should appear under the EVEN word logo.
- Item 1...Do not use the word "Banshee Riverboards" on the sticker
- Do not use the stylized E that is above the word EVEN

ore than 3000 of the disabled veterans who were residents of the Central Home since its establishment have died and been buried with military honors in the grove west of the Hospital, which had been tastefully laid out for a cemetery. "Their comrades, officers and men have erected there a beautiful monument of Peru white marble, fifty feet high, and surmounted with a splendid figure of a private soldier. It was unveiled on the 12th of September, 1887, [The year in this quote is incorrect. The monument was actually dedicated in 1877.] by the President of the United States, with grand ceremonies and in the presence of 25,000 people. On the pedestal are the words 'To our fallen Comrades' and 'These were honorable men in their generation.'…"¹
Upon entering Dayton National Cemetery, the hilly landscape is dotted with uniform marble headstones, all in neat rows with the Dayton Soldiers Memorial standing tall and proud in the center. The more than 100 acres of cemetery landscape is bathed with sunshine today, as there are few trees to shade visitors and mourners. Except for the sounds of birds, there is a solemn quiet. Beyond the gentle hills and headstones and over the horizon, you might glimpse a large old brick soldiers' home building which was built to house disabled Union veterans from the Civil War. One visitor noted the inhabitants and the atmosphere of the home when visiting in 1878:
THE HOSPITAL Was visited in the afternoon at 3 o'clock. The men who were able to walk gathered in the beautiful and spacious reading-room, adorned with flower-plants, and decorated with pictures. Service was held here to the profound satisfaction of the sick and wounded, and it was a delightful little meeting, one that I shall ever remember.
THE OFFICERS Of the Home are sick or disabled soldiers of the late war. They have all seen hard service…²
The cemetery and soldiers' home are part of the Central Branch of the National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers. Today's visitors to the facility that once housed the soldiers' home will notice the same attention to care and comfort of veterans. One can pass through the same ornate Anderson Gate onto 348 acres of well-maintained grounds that preserve the same layout as the original campus. The historic campus and cemetery today tells the story of how our nation recognizes the sacrifice of veterans - in life and death.¹ Henry Howe, Historical Collections of Ohio in two volumes (Cincinnati, Ohio: C.J. Krehbiel & Co., 1888), 287.
