dec 30th, 2007
interesting stuff. what i liked most was the following: the description of jihadis in pakistan is exactly the same as the description of the fringe-lunatic communists in india (both the ones that admit to being communists, as well as the JNU-types like vir sanghvi, shekar kapoor, rajdeep sardesai, prannoy roy, barkha dutt, karan thapar -- the fifth-column fascists who call themselves 'liberal' and 'secular'.) these people are a) demonizing entire populations (eg. gujarat), b) attempting to rig elections (eg. 2004 national elections and 2007 gujarat), c) they are killing the army by publishing all sorts of innuendo (eg. tehelka crap), d) enable traitors (eg. the communist terrorists of west bengal) to take over the state.
During her meeting with us last summer, Bhutto warned that while the jihadist movement would never have the popular support to win an election in its own right, they had sufficient means at their disposal to "unleash against the population, to rig an election, to kill the army and therefore to make it possible to take over the state."

Just because she spoke English well ( yes, those across the border dress up well as observed by you and are quite articulate so what if they lie) she was no non jihadi. Benazir was as jihadi as shabana azmis and asma jehangirs.
mj akbar is also a fervent admirer of benazir.Advani was making frenzied queries about her well being when she survived the first attempt.
We, the Hindus celebrate Narakasura's slaying as Deepavali, but mourn needlessly for benazirs and indira gandhis , short of apotheosizing them ! No wonder, we don't command our adversaries' fear leave alone respect.

Vice-president Rafael Yuste has claimed that the club are in talks with Valencia over a potential move for the hitman.
Valencia have allegedly broken an agreement with Real Madrid to sell David Villa for a reported fee of €42m, with Los Che now said to be holding out for a sum closer to €50m. Either that, or a deal that includes Alvaro Negredo moving to the Mestalla.
'El Guaje' has been heavily linked with a move to the Bernabeu to spearhead the new-look Galacticos under Florentino Perez and, with Valencia's precarious financial situation, it was thought that they would be forced to sell Villa at a knock-down price.
However, with a deal thought to be in place, Valencia appear to be holding out for more money for their prized hit-man, who netted 28 Primera Division goals in just 33 matches last season, as his side just missed out on the Champions League.

In Era: Lyres, the players take the roles of people who would never make it as adventurers, but instead tell stories of their "amazing quests" to gain the gold and glory they rightfully deserve!
The players tell a combined story to the GM, who listens and assesses its believability. He controls the audience's reactions, depending on the story - ending in anything from applause... to a bar fight.
The book contains the basic scenario for play, a list of taverns, Quick Start Character Creation, Rules, Equipment and a GM Guide (which includes audience generation). Oh, and it's a fun read, too!
Pledge just £1 and get the Digital Version.
Of course, we all like Physical Versions of a product, so we've got those for you as well – they only cost a little bit more.
Even if you buy a copy for your entire gaming group, you'll still spend a fraction on what you'd spend on a hardcover RPG rulebook!
Everyone who backs also gets their name in the Hall of Lyres on the Era: Lyres website!
Think that's no big deal? Think again! Era: Lyres is all about telling the boldest, most exciting tale and this way your name will live on forever.
(Or at least until the internet goes down after the apocalypse – which is covered in a different game we'll be publishing soon. Yes, that's a shameless Era: Survival plug. So sue us.)
After this Kickstarter is done, warriors, rogues and mages alike will have to spend more than £1 to get the book.
We think you deserve it cheaper, because you helped to make this edition happen!
(And because we only need a few gold coins in our pouches to print it, of course.)
Okay, this might seem like we're boasting, but, hey, that's what the game is about anyway. We've already had compliments from reviewers we've sent provisional versions to.
Just take a look at the full Era: Lyres Deluxe Rulebook:
It looks pretty nice, doesn't it? Well, we're using a similar layout for the Pocket Edition.
Interested in getting the Deluxe Edition for yourself and a copy of the Pocket Edition for, say, your players? Yes, we think that's a good idea too!
With Era: Lyres – Pocket Edition, you'll be getting a fun and innovative full-colour roleplaying game that lets you have any kind of fantasy RPG experience… with a twist. What's more, you'll only spend £1 for the Digital Version or £5 for a Physical Version.
That's about 1/5th of a pint of beer.
For higher pledges, there are a few additional rewards:
- Get your character converted to Lyres by the creator!
- Get a cool 4GB Memory Card!
- Add a creature of your choice to the Bestiary!
- Choose a village or town to be added to the Kingdom of Yarnolth!
One final thing - there are a limited number (15) of our 4GB Shades of Vengeance Memory cards left. I've put them all on one reward level (£18). If you want one with a different reward level, send a message or put a comment on the Kickstarter. I'll set one aside - you can increase your pledge and have one! First come, first served!
And, as in previous Kickstarters, you will find a few bonus extras on there - concept art, soundtracks and similar!
Interested in a reward we're not offering, or more than 1 book?
Let us know via the comments or message us via Kickstarter and we'll do everything we can to get you what you need!
'Someone told me at a convention that they loved the concept of Era: Lyres, but really wanted a smaller book with the bare minimum story in it,' says Ed, Shades of Vengeance CEO and Era: Lyres creator. 'Some people just don't have the time or money to invest in another core rulebook – or they want smaller versions for their players. Others just want to be able to reference the most important rules and information, so they can keep their core books safe from wear and tear. It seemed like a fun idea, so I set about doing the editing to bring the page count down. It was a challenge, but I'm pretty happy with what's resulted so far!'
It's not true that everyone prefers to make up everything, though - some people appreciate a little help on the creative side! - so we also looked at how to supplement it, and came up with using the website!
'I've been working to edit down Era: Lyres to the minimum amount without making any concessions as far as playability is concerned, but we need to do the layout and ensure that the production values are what they should be,' says Ed. 'That's the goal for this Kickstarter: £50 for layout and proofreading work.'
Here's the split:
50% of the money will go to time spent sending digital versions out, printing, packaging, handling and shipping of the books and to pay for the extra artwork and writing needed for the higher tier rewards.
30% of the total will go to the writers and editors involved in this project up to this point, because so far they haven't been compensated for their work on this edition.
5% goes to Kickstarter, as always...
The remaining 15% will be used on the next Era project! Yes, we know what it's going to be and we're pretty sure you're gonna be just excited about it as we are!
"I like this whole 'one person screws up, it affects the rest of the party' thing. This is how all games should be - it's called consequences, people!"
"Never have I had so much power in an RPG, and yet been at the complete mercy of my own words!"
"The idea behind this game is phenomenal."
"Sort of like Munchausen, but better - we don't spend all our time trying to catch each other out, that's the GM's job!"
Here's a video of the actual gameplay:
(Disclaimers: I am not a skilled video editor, I did the best I could! Also, we had to use 3 cameras, so the visuals change between them. Apologies, we ran out of camera battery!)
That should answer any questions you have! In case you don't have an hour to watch it, here's a bit about the gameplay and rules:
This adaptation of our Era d10 ruleset is designed to allow you to tell and scrutinise stories in a way that is as unobtrusive as possible - the perfect balance of detail and playability.
Persuasion isn't all that counts here! Being able to talk about a fist fight requires Brawl, describing how you used an anvil and forge to craft a sword from a legendary material requires skill in Blacksmithing, and so on!
Does this sound a little odd? Here's the reasoning behind it: When you're telling a story about your great physical prowess and you're a thin and bony woman with no visible muscle, people might question you. At that moment, you might pick up a chair with a person sitting on it to prove your strength. These rolls, when called for, signify this sort of demonstration without breaking the narrative of the story.
By choosing your skills carefully, your character can describe anything they might want to in a realistic way. Working as a group, the players can tell any story they want and be rewarded for it - they just have to convince the audience (played by the GM)!
The rules could be generally described as "a Success-counting dice pool system where you roll Attribute + Skill in d10s and the difficulty of the task determines which numbers count as Successes. Most rolls are opposed, with whoever gains a greater number of Successes being deemed the winner."
Too brief or jargony? Here's a brief video showing some rolls:
Opposed Rolls
This game uses opposed rolls to assess the likelihood of players' claims. The member of the audience most qualified to dispute your claims rolls their dice against your Attribute + Skill dice and whoever gets more Successes (attaining the required number) wins.
If you win, you have convinced them and can continue your story without difficulty. If they win, anything could happen - from them walking out shouting that they don't believe you to a full-on bar fight!
Our Stretch Goals in this project are going to be about adding aspects about the Kingdom of Yarnolth to the website so that everyone can access them at any time (our site is mobile-friendly!) - Bestiary and Locations

We are sliding in at the last minute with our Mood Board Monday. But with this little nip in the air, I've started thinking about fall. While searching for a little inspiration, I found this amazing picture (top right in the below collage). It is oozing with fall colors and an old world feel. I can so see an entire wedding designed around this 1 single image. Picture it with me; the ceremony focal point is old iron fencing with rich colored florals hugging the top curve of the gate. The reception would have a dark wooden custom made bar and behind it a faux finished painted wall adorned with gorgeous candlelit sconces. Tables would be covered with "I'm not peach, I'm not orange" linens and surrounded by wooden chairs. So warm and inviting. It screams Italy in the fall (not that I have ever been but one can dream). Are you in love as much as I am?

Four years ago today Japan suffered through a massive earthquake followed by a huge tsunami that triggered a dangerous nuclear meltdown. Only the tsunami part wasn't foreseen in an article that ran in The Nation in March of 1995, "Will Japan's Nuke Plants Be Next?" written by Aileen Mioko Smith (now director of Green Action Japan) and C. Douglas Lummis (a former teacher in Japan and a former US Marine) after the earthquake that year near Kobe. File this one under "Hate To Say We Told You So."
Legend has it that there is a giant catfish buried deep in the sand beneath the Japanese islands who occasionally shifts and changes position. When that happens the earth shakes and splits, rocks roll down from the mountaintops and the fragile constructions of human beings collapse. People used to say that the ever-present danger of earthquakes here contributed to the Japanese sense of the ephemerality of all things. Who would have thought they would build forty-eight nuclear power plants on the back of the catfish….
The "earthquake-proof" power plants were built on the basis of calculations that excluded the possibility of an earthquake on this fault. Other faults also run in the area. Calculations that include the possibility of an earthquake on a combination of these faults indicate an earthquake with twenty times the force of the maximum predicted by the government experts. What would happen then? One official complained, "That's like asking what would happen if the world blew up!" There is a strong, but by no means strong enough, anti-nuclear-power movement in Japan. On the whole it has been weakened by excessive trust in scientists and government officials: "They must know what they are doing" is the usual refrain. The Kobe catastrophe has made it clear that they do not. There is no question that nuclear power generation is absurd on these shifting islands and will be abolished someday. The only question is whether that day will come in time.
To mark The Nation's 150th anniversary, every morning this year The Almanac will highlight something that happened that day in history and how The Nation covered it. Get The Almanac every day (or every week) by signing up to the e-mail newsletter.

However, drugs have increased over the years, making America the world's leader in opioid prescriptions. In 2016, the US recorded a new number in the deaths by opioids – with 64,000 people died of drug overdoses, trailing back to the use of synthetic opioids (such as fentanyl), heroin, and common opioid painkillers (e.g. Percocet and OxyContin).
The Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported opioids as the number one contributor, in comparison to other types of drug overdose. The number makes opioids death toll higher than those of guns, car crashes and HIV in the US.
Healthcare professionals contributed to the epidemicWall Street Journal reported that doctors prescribing painkillers has led to drug dependence and addiction. University of Michigan researchers found that about one in every 16 surgical patients who were prescribed opioids were still getting the drugs three to six months later. On the contrary, approximately 54% of people who misused prescription opioids claim they obtained them from a friend or relative (who have prescribed painkillers) — either with or without that person's knowledge.
Another study found that dentists prescribe opioids at a rate higher than nearly every other specialty, responsible for writing one out of every eight prescriptions for immediate-release opioids in the US.
As a way to reverse the problem, Wall Street Journal suggested that doctors should review the quantity they prescribe. Researchers from Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Centre reported that 15 pills would effectively manage most patients' pain following laparoscopic gall bladder removal. However, some patients were prescribed as many as 100.
Online sellers' takeoverTraining doctors would be possible, but even though doctors stop prescribing once deem there's no need for medication. Nonetheless, patients who are already accustomed to the drug are still able to get the medication online. Domestic RCs (DRC), an online company selling compounds that have never been approved for human use enables online medication purchasing as an alternative to doctors and dealers. A pre-admission disclaimer on the company's website says that all products it sells "are for the purposes of research only".
The existence of an online drugstore makes it easier to purchase painkillers as it requires no insurance card or physical examination. It is also safer than dealers where patients might be threatened. Drugs like benzodiazepines can be bought as liquids, pills, powders, and pellets of substances with names that sounded like real drugs — clonazolam, diclazepam, etizolam, and flubromazolam — but weren't.
Government's involvement urged to address "one nation overdosed"To curb the problem, Chris Christie, governor of New Jersey urged for a state of emergency to push Trump administration to take the steps that are needed to combat the crisis of overdoses, as well as force Congress to take the matter seriously.
"It would also awaken every American to this simple fact: if this scourge has not found you or your family yet, without bold action by everyone, it soon will," the report says.
The report presented July this year calls for states to be allowed to grant waivers to existing Medicaid exclusions that currently put the burden of caring for people with substance abuse problems wholly on to state budgets. It also proposed that the CDC should produce a new set of training standards and guidelines for clinicians on the safe dispensing of drugs.
A lesson from SwissWhen Switzerland was facing the Opiate epidemic, they assigned addicted people to clinics where they were given opiates under supervision by a nurse. Patients were also given extensive social support to turn their lives around, including therapy and help in finding a job or housing. Patients were given the drug but at the same time, workers dealt with the cause of the problem that made patients relied on the drugs in the first place.
There is no time limit as to how long patients can stay; but, almost everyone chooses to stop after a few years. Since the programme began, there have been zero overdose deaths on legal opiates in Switzerland. MIMS

- Page 1 Soul Calibur IV Review
- Page 2 Soul Calibur IV Review
- Page 3 Soul Calibur IV Review
Yet Soul Calibur IV's beauty goes way beyond being skin deep. We all know that the real meat of a fighting game lies in the multiplayer versus action, but in more recent versions of its beat-em-ups Namco has bent over backwards to add long-term depth for lonesome players. Soul Calibur IV still has your standard arcade mode, but the story mode is now something different, containing five rounds of single and multi-opponent challenges for each of the game's thirty plus characters, each tale culminating in a climactic boss battle.
This in itself could keep you busy for some time, particularly as it's the key to unlocking every character and costume item in the game's extensive catalogue, but on top of this the game packs in an additional single-player campaign, Tower of Lost Souls. Here you ascend or descend the titular tower, with two or more floors making up a mission. You select a team of characters to complete each mission, and will have to defeat whatever opponent(s) each floor throws at you before your whole team is destroyed.
Not only are the tower missions tougher than the stages in the arcade or story modes, but they require a certain level of strategy. You'll probably need a couple of goes at each mission before you crack who you need to fight and in what order. What's more, as the next opponent on a floor enters the fray as soon as their predecessor has been defeated, it makes the game much less of a stop/start affair than single-player beat-em-ups tend to be. You can actually get into the flow of the action.
It's in the story and Tower of Lost Souls modes (and not the more straightforward arcade mode) that skills come into play. Each character has their own set of skills, conferring on them the chance to counter some moves automatically, cause damage to a guarding opponent or even turn temporarily invisible. The further you get up – and even more so down – the tower, the more vital these skills become.
Yet this feature only really makes sense when you tie it into Soul Calibur IV's other big enhancement: the new character customisation mode. You can create characters based on any of the Soul Calibur cast then tweak clothes, hairstyles and armour to your heart's content, paying for new and improved items with the currency collected by playing the single player game (though some weapons and items may need to be unlocked first).
This would be fun, anyway, but in the end there's no real point to playing a clone of, say, foxy female ninja Taki if she just plays like foxy female ninja Taki in a small bikini. However, by adding skills and custom weapons you can tweak your custom fighter in different directions and make them more useful to your Tower of Lost Souls missions. Indeed, the more you fight with one character (or a custom character based on them) the higher your rank goes in their style and the more skills you'll have open for acquisition. The one feeds the other, as they say.
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly test every product we review. We use industry standard tests in order to compare features properly. We'll always tell you what we find. We never, ever accept money to review a product. Tell us what you think - send your emails to the Editor.

My Wish for 2015
more photos.
more books. more baths.
more fantastic television. more nights when I come home too late to watch anything.
one winter day that's warm enough to be outside but cold enough to make snowmen, calvin-and-hobbes style.
a phone call on a perfect morning in the spring that will inspire me to take a sick day and paint the motherfucking town.
an (employed) summertime vacation with nothing to do but drink and make freckles.
an autumn that is made for boots, leather jackets, and people watching.
and an end-of-year holiday season full of everygoddamned thing I didn't get to in 2014.
here's to wishes.

Check out Wipf & Stock Studies in Pentecostalism.
This collection of essays explores the theology of African Pentecostalism from various vantage points. Rather than approaching African Pentecostalism in a systematic fashion, Clifton R. Clarke aims to explain the theological implications of African Pentecostal practices and beliefs. The book is divided into two sections: the first deals with theological issues, and the second with the more practical ramifications. Clarke hopes to make a contribution toward opening up more theological discourse in the study of African Pentecostalism.
This is a distinctive book for people who are intellectually curious about African Pentecostal theology. It provides thick descriptions of the major themes, motifs, moral visions, and trends of African Pentecostal Christianity.
—Nimi Wariboko, Katherine B. Stuart Professor of Christian Ethics, Andover Newton Theological School
The Christian community is witnessing a tremendous growth of Christianity in Africa, a continent which was once a mission field. This book is an attempt to throw more light on African Pentecostalism, which is the climax of the Christian growth in Africa. It is a very good tool for scholars who want to increase their knowledge and understanding of African Pentecostalism.
—Opoku Onyinah, chairman, Church of Pentecost
The spread of Pentecostalism has become a global phenomenon. Despite some similarities in the Pentecostal Christian community, there are peculiar theologies from one continent to another. This book informs readers about some key theological topics, the mode of formulating theologies, and the undercurrent forces that influence the formulation and articulation of Pentecostal theology in Africa. The book is a door to Pentecostalism in Africa and a step to understanding African Christianity.
—Thomas A. Oduro, president, Good News Theological College and Seminary, Accra, Ghana
Clifton R. Clarke is an associate professor of global missions and world Christianity at Regent University School of Divinity. He is the author of African Christology: Jesus in Post Missionary African Christianity.
Many Pentecostal groups have forgotten their legacy of war resistance and their doctrinal history opposing killing. To rectify this loss, Jay Beaman and Brian K. Pipkin have cataloged Holiness and Pentecostal denominational statements on war and peace. This antiwar collection offers a picture of the early Pentecostal movement as pacifist. While their early doctrines opposed killing, many named in this book are now widely considered to be stalwarts of the Religious Right, or at least staunch supporters of Christian participation in war. Beaman and Pipkin's goal is to frame the official position of early Pentecostals on war and peace, and encourage Pentecostals today to reflect on their antiwar heritage.
In this remarkable book Jay Beaman and Brian Pipkin demonstrate that the rejection of war was central to many early Holiness and Pentecostal Christians. This book will challenge the complacency of many of their heirs and remind us that nonviolence is the common heritage of many so-called evangelicals in the United States and around the world.
—William Kostlevy, associate professor of history and political science, Tabor College
Reading this book will remind Pentecostals of their spiritual ancestors and what they did in favor of peace and justice, and it will remind non-Pentecostals that the stereotypes of 'social strike' and 'refuge of the masses' do not always adequately describe the life and mission of all Pentecostal believers and churches around the world.
—Darío López Rodríguez, Gamaliel Biblical Seminary of the Church of God
Being a conscientious objector to war and violence doesn't mean you are part of a unique community or an exclusive club, and CO is not simply the domain of the historic peace churches. Politics and other earthly pressures aside, being a CO to war and violence is what it means to be human. Thanks to Jay and Brian for this poignant reminder.
—Maria Santelli, Center on Conscience & War
Jay Beaman is a sociologist and administrative faculty member doing research at Warner Pacific College in Portland, Oregon. He is the author of Pentecostal Pacifism.
Brian K. Pipkin is assistant managing editor of Pax Pneuma: The Journal of Pentecostals and Charismatics for Peace and Justice. He is the author of "The Foursquare Church and Pacifism" in Pentecostals and Nonviolence.
The Journal of Biblical and Pneumatological Research (JBPR) is an international peer-reviewed academic serial dedicated to narrative- and rhetoric-minded exegesis of biblical and related texts. JBPR's aim is to stimulate new thematic and narrative-critical exploration and discovery in both traditional and under-explored areas of research. This volume is edited by Paul Elbert.
Paul Elbert teaches theology and science at the Pentecostal Theological Seminary in Cleveland, Tennessee. He is co-chair of the Formation of Luke-Acts section in the Society of Biblical Literature, and he's a research advisor to the Dominican Biblical Institute in Limerick, Ireland. His writings have appeared in Zeitschrift für die neutestamentliche Wissenschaft and Catholic Biblical Quarterly. He also served as editor of Essays on Apostolic Themes and Faces of Renewal.
In this volume, Peter Hocken argues that the charismatic movement's grace for unity can be seen in how the movement began and spread. Its deep orientation to unity finds its foundation in the end-times significance of baptism in the Spirit poured out on Christians from so many traditions that reinforces the "one hope" for the coming of the Lord. Many developments from the last 20 years indicate that the time is now ripe for an ecumenism of the Spirit within which the charismatic impulses of the Holy Spirit can purify and deepen the wider movement for Christian unity. Growing reconciliation between Evangelicals and Catholics suddenly seems less utopian as Pope Francis shows the servant face of a humbler Catholic Church.
The title, Pentecost and Parousia, makes clear that Peter Hocken does not see the ecumenical movement as being just about our efforts to bring about doctrinal agreement or institutional change. Rather it is a matter of recognizing and being faithful to the grace that has been given and looking forward together to the fulfillment of God's purposes. This is a perspective with which we need to engage.
—Kevin McDonald, archbishop, Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales
The Church lives a new time. The arrival of Francis, his gestures and actions, are a breath of the spirit. This book by Peter Hocken is prophetic because it was written before the election of the new pope. The unity of the church will be the work of the Holy Spirit, and Pentecost and Parousia bears witness to this.
—Norberto Saracco, rector, FIET (International Foundation of Theological Schools)
Peter Hocken, drawing on his theological, pastoral, and practical experience, considers the effects of the Pentecostal-charismatic outpouring of the spirit on Christian unity and on the ecclesiology and witness of the whole church. He combines an analytical with a prophetic approach, acknowledging important events in recent church history but recognizing that the work for unity is a spiritual battle leading to a full ecumenism of the spirit as we await the Lord's return. Highly recommended.
—Charles Whitehead, former president, International Catholic Charismatic Renewal
Peter Hocken is a Catholic priest from England living in Austria. A former executive secretary of the Society for Pentecostal Studies, he is author of several books, including The Challenges of the Pentecostal, Charismatic and Messianic Jewish Movements.
This study, drawing on Kevin Vanhoozer's "dramatic" approach to theology, argues that the way God calls us to "perform" as we seek to communicate with him amidst such situations is to lament, and to do so with the aid of the Holy Spirit. Rather than offering such an approach purely in opposition to the more "triumphalistic" responses common in Pentecostal / Charismatic theology and practice, this book seeks to show how a performance of lament is conducive to such theology and practice while acting as a much-needed corrective to certain aspects of it. What is provided here is therefore relevant reading for both scholars and pastors alike, particularly of the Pentecostal / Charismatic church tradition, who grapple with the realities of suffering and the questions such realities produce.
Torr's study arises from his own experience of grief in seemingly unanswered prayer. He convincingly proposes the biblical performance of lamenting with the aid of the Spirit while waiting for eschatological relief. I commend this book warmly to all those seeking answers to the real challenges of suffering and pain.
—Allan Heaton Anderson, professor of mission and Pentecostal studies, University of Birmingham
Stephen Torr has written a rich, thoughtful, and critical exposition on the reality of suffering in the vista of faith. . . . This will be an important study for those in Pentecostal traditions; beyond that it merits the close attention of the wider community of faith as a contribution to our thinking about the problem of evil in the context of actual church practice.
—Walter Brueggemann, professor emeritus, Columbia Theological Seminary
Stephen Torr has provided an insightful account of how those working from within the Pentecostal and charismatic traditions might approach the problem of evil and suffering. His position, especially his advocacy of the genre of lament within a theo-dramatic approach, deserves to be widely read. It makes an original contribution to theological scholarship and assists the church in its pastoral practice.
—Mark J. Cartledge, director of the Centre for Pentecostal & Charismatic Studies, University of Birmingham
Stephen C. Torr is assistant curate in the Abbots Bromley Benefice, England. Having completed undergraduate studies at the University of Birmingham, he completed a PhD in theology as part of the Centre for Pentecostal and Charismatic Studies, also at the University of Birmingham. Torr trained for ordination at Ridley Hall, Cambridge.

As fall rolls in and summer come to a close the artist Fifty Grand, associated with the likes of the rapper Bones collective TeamSesh and is in the realm of Spooky Black has been gaining notoriety. Enough notoriety in fact, to capture the attention of FADER magazine for an interview and their final summer mix of 2014. Some may describe his music as scary, looming, or the process of emanate death, tragic even. He, himself has stated that his best music comes out a place of pain, and intense emotions and is sonically displayed quite beautifully in this mix. The samples used paints the very picture of rage, beauty and evil. You can check out the full length interview here

I am trying to follow the steps in the SharePoint Resource Kit book thatexplains about "Adding Portal Sites". I follow all the steps to create a new WebSite and am getting an unsuccessful completion in the web server creationwizard. The message I'm getting is that the file already exists.This is the information I'm using:1) IP address = All Unassigned2) TCP port = 803) Host header = same name used by main portal4) Path = new folder under wwwroot folder5) Clear check box for "Allow anonymous access to this Web site"6) Web site permissions = default (Read, Run scripts)Do I need to use a different port number?
Given the approach we take to setup secondary portals, the Host Header nameneeds to be a CNAME alias in DNS for the original server/portal name ...notthe same name used by the main portal. The CNAME needs to be different fromserver name and the default portal name (if you also use Host Headers forthe main portal).The Host Header is configured (usually) on port 80 so users can simple enterthe CNAME alias to access the secondary portal.
Do I do the same thing if I need to create 2 or 3 more portal sites? I thought Iread somewhere that you can only have one CNAME to a name. Do you know if thisis true? If it is then what other options do I have?
In DNS, I'm not aware of any limit in terms of the number of CNAMEs you canhave for a particular server name. We've had at least 10 at a time.

Week 9 of the "12 Parks in 12 Weeks" tour took me to Lindblom Park located at 6054 S. Damen Ave in Chicago's Englewood community. Usually the name Englewood precedes itself, but as described by Mrs. Net, a longtime resident who has been living across from the park for 40 years, her block was a good island. She said, "In reality, you can't run away because there's violence in every community. In Chicago, there are both good islands and bad islands—good blocks surrounded by bad." Damen Avenue in front of the park is a good island. I like the island terminology because Mrs. Net broke down the violence issue as block by block, meaning that very few entire community areas can be free from crime, unless each block and each household take ownership and a sense of pride in their block. I think bad islands do exist in Chicago because there is an inadequacy of compassion and a lack of sensibility amongst people. Even the good neighborhoods (so to speak good islands) are mirages in the desert of Chicago, and people just have an illusion of security. Anyhow, Mrs. Net waved me across the street and made me a pineapple snow cone.
I'm always reluctant to speak on violence in Englewood because the work my friend, Ay-Sha Butler, is doing in Englewood. Ay-Sha is the President of RAGE (Resident Association of Greater Englewood), and today she was hosting an event called So Fresh Saturdays at Lindblom Park. I'll let her tell you what it's about. Ay-Sha isn't reactive; she's super consistent and there's a lot to learn about organizing from one of her community group meetings. You could pay to learn community organizing from the Midwest Academy Organization, or you can attend a RAGE meeting. I appreciate how she incorporates simple things, such as passing around notepads for attendees to take notes and jot down ideas. Just because it's simple, though, doesn't make it easy. Find out more about RAGE and how you can support at www.ragenglewood.org
Playing ball at the court was interesting. Definitely, Lindblom Park had the best young talent I've seen so far. I also got to break in the new Lebron James 11's 4th of July kicks. Aesthetically speaking, there was an open trash can laying on the side of the court. Nobody obviously felt the need to pick it up. In fact, one guy just placed his shirt on top of it. While I was there, I passed out MBMHMC T-Shirtsto 5 guys, but the 6th declined. Out of the hundreds of people I've given a shirt to, he was the first person to decline. Wanting feedback, I asked him what about the shirt could be improved from a fashion standpoint. He pointed to a six-pointed star on my shirt. My assumption is he didn't want it because there are too many points on my star. I didn't ask him to elaborate, but to be clear, the stars on my trademarked logo have no gang affiliation or references. They are exact replicas of the Municipal Chicago Flag Stars designed by Wallace Rice. The 4 stars symbolize historical Chicago events, and the points of the stars represent important virtues or concepts. The same Chicago Flag stars are worn on CPD badges and hang from the banners outside of City Hall. But I don't blame him for not taking a shirt. I've actually received email requests for five-point star shirts before. I didn't change it then, and I won't now. The perception in one community of a Chicago flag that bears city pride can be misconstrued as a gang affiliation in another community. There's a lot of work to be done in my city.
I won't succumb to that ideology. My Block, My Hood, My City is a series of initiatives geared toward ending segregation of ideas while promoting diversity of thought. I picked up the trash can before I left. See you next week.

Multicolor Diamond Rings
Diamond jewelry has always been highly valued all over the world and due to the multiple qualities of this magnificent gem it has become the most popular choice for wedding bands, engagement rings and elegant jewelry for special occasions as well as for everyday wear. The carbon atoms composing diamond have to be arranged in a tetrahedral lattice to create perfectly colorless and clear diamond called white. But diamonds are exposed to conditions that absorb other atoms keeping all the light wavelengths from being reflected to add the color to the diamonds during their formation. Diamonds are buried from 100 to 125 miles under the earth's crust in their crystallization phase and they are under the pressure of about 1 million pounds per square inch at this depth. The temperatures reach above 3500 degrees Fahrenheit and sometimes diamonds absorb nitrogen atoms which are the reason for diamonds to have color. Colored diamonds are available in pink, yellow, blue and even green. Black, or carbonado diamonds are rare and expensive. Multicolored diamond rings including black diamond rings have become extremely fashionable and they do look great and classy. Here you can enjoy best quality and elegant sterling silver and 14k white gold black and white diamond rings of indescribable beauty. Men's black and white diamond rings are also available.

Whilst carrying out some research on ghost stories from the North West I came across the gruesome legend of Stumpy's Brae, occasionally called the Legend of Tom the Toiler.
Stumpy's Brae is the steep brae between Craighadoes and Lifford near a bridge that is featured in the poem. It is interesting to note the use of the Ulster-Scots tongue throughout, as we tend to forget that this area was home to a sizable number of Scottish Planters
There is a wealth of information on the poem and it author Cecil Frances Alexander (who also wrote Once in Royal David's City. All Things Bright and Beautiful and There is a Green Hill Far Away) at :www.stjohnstonandcarrigans.com/stumpysbrae.html
By Cecil Frances Alexander (Londonderry, December 1844)
Heard ye no tell o' Stumpy's Brae?
Sit doon, sit doon, young freen',
I'll mak your flesh to creep this night
and your hair to stan' on end.
Young man, it's hard to strive wi' sin
And the hardest strife o' a'
Is when the greed o' gain comes in
And drives God's grace awa'.
And the hardest strife o' a'
Is when the greed o' gain comes in
And drives God's grace awa'.
O, it's quick to do, but it's lang to rue
When the punishment comes at last
And we'd gi' the whole world to undo the deed
That deed that's gone and past.
When the punishment comes at last
And we'd gi' the whole world to undo the deed
That deed that's gone and past.
Over yon strip of meadow land
And over the bintie bright
Dinna ye mark a fir-tree stand
Beside yon gable white.
And over the bintie bright
Dinna ye mark a fir-tree stand
Beside yon gable white.
I mind it well in my young days
The story it was rife,
There lived in a lonely cottage
A farmer and his wife.
They sat all alone in the bright fire light
Wan blessed Autumn night,
The hedge without, the stones within,
Were streaked wi' the bright moonlight.
The boys and girls had a' gone doon a wee
To the old blacksmith's wake,
There passed one by the winda' sma',
And he gied the door a shake.
The auld man got up and opened the door,
And after he'd spoken a bit,
A pedlar man stept into the floor and tumbled doon the pack he bore,
A right heavy pack was it.
"Guid bless us a" cried the auld man wi' a smile,
"But ye're in the thrivin' trade",
"Aye, I have travelled mony a mile
An' plenty I have made."
The two sat on in the bright fire light,
The pedler had gone to his rest.
The devil he came to the auld man's ear,
And slip't intil his breast.
He looked at his wife across the fire
She was as bad as he,
"Could we no murder this man the nacht?"
"Aye could we rightly," quo' she.
He lifted his pick without a word,
It stood behind the door,
And as he pressed in the sleeper stirred,
But he never wakened more.
"He's deid!" cried the auld man coming back,
"What's to do wi' the corpse, me dear?"
"Oh, bury him snug in his ane wee pack.
Never mind the loss o' the sack. I've taken out the gear."
"The corpse's too long by two guid span,
Oh! What'll we do?" quo' he.
Says she - "Ye're a doting, unthinkin' oul man,
Just snick him off at the knee."
They shortened the corpse, and they packed him tight
Wi' his legs in a pickle o' hay,
Over the burn in the bright moonlight
They carried him up to the Brae.
They shovelled a hole right speedily
And they laid him on his back,
"A right guid pair are ye" quo' the Pedlar,
Sitting boldly up in his pack.
"Ye thought ye'd lay me snugly here
Where none should know my station
But I'll haunt ye far, and I'll haunt ye near
Father and son, wi' terror and fear, till the nineteenth
They sat all alone the very next night,
When the wee bit dog began to cower
And they knew by the pale blue fire-light
That the Evil One had power.
It had just struck nine o' the clock,
That hour when the man lay dead,
When there came to the outer door a knock,
And a heavy, heavy tread.
The auld wife's heid swam roun' and roun',
The auld man's blood did freeze,
'Twas not like a natural sound, but like someone
stumping over the ground
On the banes o' his raw bare knees.
And in through the door like a sough of air,
And he stumped and he stumped around the twa'
Wi' his bloody heid, and his knee bones bare
As he died that night awa.
The wife's black locks ere morn grew white,
They say, as mountain snows.
The man was as straight as a rush that night
But he crooked when the next morn he rose.
And every night as the clock struck nine,
The hour they did the sin,
The wee dog began to whine
An' the ghost came clatterin' in.
And stump, stump, stump to his ploys again
Over the taps o' the stools and chairs,
Ye'd surely hae thought it was ten weemen and men
Dancin' all in pairs.
A' night, there was a fearful flood,
Three days the skies had poured
And the tap wi' foam and the bottom wi' mud,
The burn in fury roared.
Quo' she, "Guid man ye needne turn sae pale
In the dim fire light
The stumpy cannae cross the burn
He'll naw be here the nacht."
"For it's ower the bank, it's ower
It's ower the meadow rig."
"Aye", said the ghost comin' clattering in a gied the auld wife a bat on the chin,
"But I cam' roun by the brig".
They sold their gear and across the sea,
To a foreign land they went
But sure what can flee
from his appointed punishment?
The ship swam over the ocean clear,
Wi' the help o' the Western breeze
But the very first sound they heard on the wide, smooth deck
Was the thumpin' o' them twa bare knees.
Out in the wild woods of America
Where their weary feet they set,
But Stumpy was there first they say, and haunted them to
Their dying day,
And he haunts their children yet.
Now that's the story o' Stumpy's Brae
And the murderer's fearful fate.
Young friend, your face is turned that way,
This night you'll gang that gate.
Ye'll ken it well, through the few fir trees
The house where they were wont to dwell
If ye meet any there as daylight flees,
Stumping about on the banes o' his knees,
It'll just be Stumpy himsel'.

While Congress bickers over how to fix the financial meltdown, there's a decent chance you haven't even felt it. Why, you may be asking yourself, does everyone think there's such a big a problem when you're still being offered credit cards in the mail and 0% financing at the car dealership? Maybe you used to bank with Washington Mutual or Wachovia and overnight you've become a Chase or Wells Fargo customer, but if your money's still there, why does the rest matter?
The tumult at the top of financial markets has not filtered down evenly, but that doesn't mean it's not seeping. There are cracks on Main Street, but whether or not you see them largely depends on where you stand. Just ask anyone who wants to buy a house with a subprime mortgage they're not all evil, but these days they are exceedingly rare or with a jumbo loan, which now carries an average rate 1.2 percentage points above a regular mortgage. (In normal times, the spread is closer to a quarter of a percentage point.) "Some people are saying, 'Credit crunch, what credit crunch?' and others are ready to cry uncle," says Greg McBride, a senior financial analyst at Bankrate.com. "It shows it really matters where you fall on the risk spectrum."
Now, about those credit card offers. You may not feel it, but there are fewer of them going out 1.1 million during the second quarter, down 17% from the same time last year, according to Synovate, a research firm that tracks direct mail. Who's being ignored? Well, subprime borrowers (no surprise there), but also anyone who doesn't make a lot of money: 52% of households with an annual income of less than $50,000 received at least one offer in the second quarter, compared with 66% of such households during the same period last year.
Already got all the credit cards you need? You're still not immune from higher delinquency fees or lower limits. American Express typically cuts the credit limit on about 4% of its members in any given year. That figure now stands closer to 10%, as the card company takes a hard look at customers' credit profiles including data on who lives in the areas with the most house-price deterioration.
For car loans, the division between those who feel the crunch and those who don't often comes down to credit score. The average 60-month new car loan is priced at 7.10%, not much different than in the spring, according to HSH Associates, Financial Publishers and the average rate on a 60-month used car loan, 7.54%, has actually been drifting downward. (Those 0% financing deals still exist, too, from struggling car companies desperate to move inventory.) The difference is, you're probably not going to get that rate (or any at all) unless your FICO score is north of 700, whereas six months or a year ago, a score as low as 620 would have gotten you behind the wheel. "Some of this just represents moving back to standards that were in place five or six years ago," says Paul Taylor, chief economist at the National Automobile Dealers Association. "But if you're a customer, not getting credit you could've gotten a year before looks like a credit crunch to you."
The situation with student loans doesn't break down quite as neatly. Since the summer of 2007, 137 lenders have stopped funding federal loans, and 33 have suspended private programs, according to Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of FinAid.org and other financial aid websites. Part of that had to do with a cut in federal subsidies, but part was directly related to the credit crunch issuers that pulled out tended to be those that packaged and resold loans, a market that has evaporated.
Students at community and technical colleges, especially institutions that are for-profit, are having the toughest time of it. The reason: those students are more likely to use private loans (whose credit standards have tightened), and lenders under profit pressure are less willing to write loans for shorter, one- and two-year programs especially at schools with historically high default rates.
Federal loans aren't completely unaffected. While Stafford loans, which are made directly to students and don't take into account credit history, were up in the second quarter compared to a year ago, loans made to parents through the Parent PLUS program have plummeted down 29% in dollar volume year-over-year, according to Department of Education data analyzed by Kantrowitz.
The mood at banks more generally is cautious. The most recent Federal Reserve survey of loan officers showed a plurality of banks tightening credit standards across the board. Add in anecdotal evidence like Bank of America declining to increase lending to McDonald's franchisees even though the two companies have a long-standing partnership and things do seem to be cascading down to Main Street, or whatever road is home to your local fast food joint. In August, 67% of small-business owners said they'd been affected by the credit crunch, compared with 55% in February, according to surveys by the National Small Business Association.
It's not hard to find anecdotes of business booming at credit unions and community banks, which rely on deposits rather than financing in the capital markets. But even there's nuance even there. The amount you can expect from a top-yielding certificate of deposit has fallen from about 5.5% to 4.25% over the past year, according to Bankrate.com. On the surface that seems to indicate banks aren't that worried if they really needed cash, wouldn't they up their rates to attract more money? Well, over the same period of time, the federal funds rate has been cut from 5.25% to 2% a much wider margin. "Banks are hungry for deposits, and that's why yields haven't fallen all that much," says Bankrate's McBride. And CD yields are now on the rise.
Does that mean you're feeling the credit crunch? Maybe not. But it might be an indication that the cracks on Main Street are spreading.

Here is what i like to do to remove the fur from my couches and it works pretty well.
First you need to wet your hands and shake off the extra water, your hands should be damp enough to pick up stuff but not sopping wet.
After your hands are damp then you run them over your sofas and cushions and wherever else you have a lot of hair or fur!
Once you have finished your first round all you need to do is rinse off the hair with more water and then keep going until your couch is fur free (or at least at a tolerable level).
If you do this at least once a day or even a few times a week you will be surprised how much nicer and fur-less your furnishings will be and you won't worry about having hair stuck to you as much whenever you sit on them.
It's a good, cheap way to be rid of fur on the couch AND it is good exercise for your arms! Wax on, wax off.... ;-)

Today was quite the day for demos on the Marketplace. In addition to a hearty sampling of the controversial Shadowrun, two other downloads are now available: Tenchu X and Vampire Rain. The recent entries in the Tenchu series were not to my tastes, so I decided to give Vampire Rain a go—after all, it's not every day that Canada gets content that the States doesn't, and I relished the opportunity. Boy, was I ever disappointed.
Developed by Artoon, Vampire Rain boasts a unique premise that mixes stealth-based gameplay and vampire hunting together. As you can imagine, the game plays out like a hybrid of Splinter Cell and Resident Evil: you lurk around corners, stay in the shadows, and pop out only to put away the deranged monsters directly in your path. The demo itself, which clocks in at just under 900 MB, offers two story missions, two time trial missions and some online multiplayer.
From the get-go, it's apparent that VR has a distinct lack of polish. The game's art and style are drab, the interface is crude, the models are generic, the environments are bland, the lighting is poor, and the rain effects are surprisingly lacking in vampires. Like a B movie, VR screams low production values. Unlike the better B movies, though, there's very little redemption in the game's actual substance. The armed combat is clunky and feels limp: guns offer no weight, and there's no impact to your shots. Should a pistol really feel and fire exactly like an assault rifle?
The multiplayer wasn't really much better. The standard modes—like deathmatch and "hold the item"—were playable despite suffering from all the aforementioned issues, but they were far from what I would consider enjoyable. Perhaps my expectations have been raised by the alternative cornucopia of online shooters on the system.
Unless this build of the game was really early and not representative of the product set to launch on July 3, Vampire Rain looks to be a textbook "skip." It's a shame, too, as I've felt recently that the vampire quotient in my games has been surprisingly low.

New jobless claims drop by 3,000 but remain stubbornly high
New jobless claims filed last week fell by 3,000 to 456,000, another sign that unemployment remains stuck stubbornly high.
The four-week moving average of new claims, which smooths out week-to-week volatility, rose by 2,500 to 463,000.
The number of people receiving continuing claims -- a measure of long-term unemployment -- dropped to 4.46 million, the lowest figure since December 2008.
The national unemployment rate is 9.7 percent, down from 9.9 percent the previous month. More than 400,000 new jobs were added to the economy in May, but almost all of those were census workers, a clear sign that the private sector is still too spooked by the economy to start hiring again.
Economists say that meaningful job creation by the private sector cannot occur until the weekly jobless claims number gets down into the low 400,000s or upper 300,000s and stays there.

Did you mean to say "Economists say that meaningful job creation by the private sector is not occuring until the weekly jobless claims number gets down into the low 400,000s or upper 300,000s and stays there."
I don't see how high jobless claims would be the cause of jobs not being created, so much as a sign that jobs aren't being created.

How does anyone know if the drop in people continuing to receive bennies means less long term UE or if it means that those people had their bennies run out?
Answer: no one knows but this is the second article I have seen where it is accepted on faith to be a "measure of long-term UE".

I am not one of the unemployed however see the need for Unemployment extensions...
I mean really yahoo only 460,000 more people on unemployment this week. How is that good new? Down from 3,000 from last week. But wait only 41,000 jobs added last month?
... Congress needs to be held accountable for the their failure to create a jobs bill and a jobs market.
extending Unemployment is not the answer however it what is needed. the Answer is to create jobs, which will take Congress to place hire taxes on any company that out sources jobs over seas, higher taxes on any funds leaving the US and higher tariffs on imports.
Until then we have to pay out unemployment for the failure of our leaders.
Support unemployment here, it is one of Change.org highest all time petitions.

The title of the article implies that claims only fell by 3000 and thus the total number of claims remains high. This I can go along with.
I have an issue with the first sentence of the article. The fact that jobless claims FALL by 3000 does not serve well as an indicator that unemployment is stubbornly high.
One sign of "stubbornness" could be the moving average of the actual number of unemployed over the last 20, 30 or 40 weeks.

Clean Energy Technologies creates Jobs, Private Investment and Tax Revenue while Producing Products we can sell to the world. Creating Clean Energy Jobs producing products we can sell will reduce our national debt. China is happy to keep subsidizing our debt so we can purchase products made in China.
When over Ten Million are Recently Unemployed, when Troops are Dying in Two Wars, when Americans are in need, it's time for those of us with Jobs and who are not in War Zones risking our lives, to step up to the Plate and Help Pay to create the Clean Energy Jobs and Employment Opportunities our Country needs.
We must End Bush era $2 Trillion in tax cuts, End the $15 Billion a year in feedstock and Cotton Subsidies, End Fossil Fuel Subsidies for Multi-Billion dollar profiteering Oil companies; and Tax Large Scale (Oil, Coal, Livestock) Polluters and Imported Oil to Pay for new Jobs legislation.
Just like paying for a College education to insure a decent job, you've got to pay and invest in Job Creating Policies and Industries. This is how we Preserve Clean Land, Water, and Jobs for our Children, while freeing them from Debt.

( They NEVER Have ) Too Scary !!!!!, would freak out Wall Street.. you mean it would FREAK out the us "WE THE PEOPLE"
Here what you do Washington Post, Run a FUll Page Ad, in all 50 States, with a 800#, for those Americans whom are OFF Unemployment, and NOT working, but want to work, to call that number and be counted. ( WHAT THAT? ) there would be to many calling in, like 40-50% of America is unemployed....
Dude, working part-time, at Burger World, does not count as being employed to sustain a family.
let me break it down for you... the avg kid out of high school, that wants to get his own pad, and live .. needs a bear min of about $1400.00 a month take home (in most areas, more in others), with no car payment. yikes. get that from a Major Retail Store, or Burger Job... HA !

Wick Poetry Center
Via The Miami Foundation
Traveling Stanzas: Writing Across Borders: Sharing the voices of Akron by enabling residents to submit a short video of an original poem, some of which will be displayed on posters on local buses and in public spaces
Celebrating Akron's many voices, the Wick Poetry Center will expand its award-winning Traveling Stanzas project, engaging the community in a cross-cultural, intergenerational conversation through the inclusive voice of poetry. Working with refugee and immigrant populations and the Akron and Kent public schools, the center will offer poetry workshops to encourage people of all ages to share their voices and stories. Visitors to travelingstanzas.com will be able to record and submit a short video of an original or published poem in their own language with a brief commentary about its significance in their lives. A selection will be paired with graphic designs for posters to be displayed on Akron buses, outdoor kiosks in North Hill and other public spaces. From those works, the center will create a traveling digital exhibit featuring large touchscreen displays where users can browse poems and videos in at least five languages, and discover a shared humanity through the intimate voice of poetry.

Responsive Template Design
Whether in Joomla, WordPress or plain HTML 5/CSS3, ContiCreative can help you redesign your website to be compliant with the latest "Responsive" technologies.
Is your website easy to use on a mobile phone or a tablet? Do your users complain about your website being hard to browse on a tablet? ContiCreative specializes in transforming older designs into Responsive Designs, trying to maintain as many legacy design cues from the old website as possible.
When preserving old designs is either technically impossible or aesthetically unwise, we work with our clients to create a new design that will not jolt frequent visitors and will preserve the client branding across the new technology.
Google [...] started to boost the ratings of sites that are mobile friendly if the search was made from a mobile device.
~ Wikipedia
What is Responsive Design?
(From Wikipedia)
Responsive web design (RWD) is an approach to web design aimed at allowing desktop webpages to be viewed in response to the size of the screen or web browser one is viewing with.
A site designed with RWD adapts the layout to the viewing environment by using fluid, proportion-based grids, flexible images, and CSS3 media queries,an extension of the @media rule, in the following ways:
- The fluid grid concept calls for page element sizing to be in relative units like percentages, rather than absolute units like pixels or points.
- Flexible images are also sized in relative units, so as to prevent them from displaying outside their containing element.
- Media queries allow the page to use different CSS style rules based on characteristics of the device the site is being displayed on, most commonly the width of the browser.
Responsive web design has become more important as the amount of mobile traffic now accounts for more than half of total internet traffic.
Therefore, Google announced Mobilegeddon (April 21, 2015) and started to boost the ratings of sites that are mobile friendly if the search was made from a mobile device. Responsive web design is an example of user interface plasticity.
