Dragon Quest Builders
Blocks and slime – what's not to like?
Minecraft was a breath of fresh air when it first launched, offering players a massive sandbox in which they could gather materials and create a world containing whatever their creative hearts desired. It is like being given a massive bag of LEGO and then being told to go and build. Of course, with anything this new and successful, the inevitable clones and "inspired by" titles popped up in their droves, some trying to simply replicate Minecraft's success, while others try to refine the experience or offer something new.
And now we have Square Enix's Dragon Quest Builders, the first title from a major publisher that has openly taken the Minecraft template and added their own twist. Dragon Quest Builders take on the block-building game is to combine some JRPG flavour and a much more focused, guided experience. If Minecraft was like a bag of LEGO, Dragon Quest Builders is like a shiny new LEGO kit, complete with instructions to sweat over in a quest to build something magnificent.
The instructions come in the form of a story which gently guides the player through the game. The Dragonlord has brought darkness to the world of Alefgard and his army of monsters roam the land. To add insult to injury, Humans have lost the ability to create things from other things, the ability to build. But along comes the player, controlling the Builder, a young character who has been given the ability to build by a mysterious voice and charged with rebuilding Alefgard and bringing the light back.
From there, the player heads into the ruins of the first town and gets started. It is explained how to gather and where to find the most basic materials and then the player is allowed to get started. As things progress, NPCs will turn up in the town and offer the player quests which will inevitably lead to more complex materials and more interesting items to build. These NPCs will form the majority of the guidance for the player in DQB, pushing them ever forward as they rebuild and improve their first town.
Gathering materials is quite straight forward. Swing whichever tool the Builder happens to have equipped and whatever is in front of them will be broken up into raw materials. As play progresses, more powerful tools will be unlocked that can break down more resilient materials. The Builder can focus above or below them to aim at specific blocks with the touch of a button. Gathered materials are dropped into the inventory, which is very limited to begin with, but can be expanded back at the town with chests and later the Colossal Coffer which collects items even when the inventory is full and can be accessed from anywhere.
Materials are everywhere in the game, gathered from the very earth in the case of building blocks and minerals, to trees, plants and even the monsters that roam the wilderness. Building blocks are the most simple to use, just select them in the inventory and press a button to place them, quickly creating the walls that will become rooms. But as new materials are gathered, recipes become available which can then be created at the various crafting stations. These recipes allow the creation of more complex items, such as doors, stairs, beds and the like, which are necessary to create specific rooms. These rooms will bring bonuses to the NPCs that inhabit your town, such as the Basic Bedroom which requires a straw bed and a light source to increase your residents HP by 10%.
There is a certain amount of combat in DQB, but fighting monsters is mostly down to gathering the important materials they drop. However, occasionally the monsters will attack the town, so mashing the button to swing whatever the Builder has equipped will have more focus. The combat does become more varied as the game progresses, with things like a charged attack and projectiles. But it is never a primary objective of the game. The Builder is often reminded that they are not a hero and, aside from the Seeds of Life which are often given as rewards and grant the Builder a few extra hit points, do not become stronger or more powerful. Instead, the player has to rely on building ever more powerful armour and weapons, all of which degrade through use.
Eventually, as the player levels up their town through adding new rooms or improving the aesthetic, they will come up against an end of level boss. This will generally involve building a specific item to counter the boss working out how to defeat them. The boss encounters are fun and bring the game back to a more JRPG feel, offering a nice break from the gathering and building. After the celebrations from defeating the boss, the player will be encouraged to leave their town and new friends to head off to a new area and start again. This involves losing everything gathered and made, and forgetting most of your recipes, which can be a bit jarring the first time it happens. But it doesn't take long to get into the swing of things, and each new town will give the player brand new materials to gather and items to build.
Aside from the Builder's hit points and the level of the town, there are a few other things that the player has to keep track of. There is a day night cycle in the game, with monsters chasing the player after dark. There is also a hunger gauge that gradually empties, requiring food to top up frequently or suffer the consequences. There are also goals to be reached in each of the towns, but these remain secret until after the player has completed the town, giving great incentive to go back and replay towns to gain the rewards, which come in the form of special recipes that cannot be found elsewhere in the game.
While there is a certain path the player will move along in the main story of Dragon Quest Builders, they are also given plenty of freedom to explore as they wish and create what they want. However, for those who are more interested in the complete freedom of games such as Minecraft, after completing the first town, players can enter Terra Incognito. This is a new map specifically for players to set their creativity free, with no threat of monsters destroying their creations. It may not be as massive as the game from which DQB is inspired, but it is an empty canvas for the player, and the ability to share creations with the community is reasonable compensation for the lack of multiplayer.
Visually, Dragon Quest Builders is a bright and colourful game that is as highly polished as you would expect from a Square Enix game. However, the game is released on both the PS4 and the Vita, so when playing on the big screen it is perhaps not as sharp and detailed as it could be. It is one of very few places where the game could have been improved. Another is the camera, which works flawlessly most of the time, but really struggles when the player is underground or in a room with a roof. These are just little niggles mind you, and nothing that takes away from the sheer joy of the game.
Dragon Quest Builders could have been just a Dragon Quest based skin of Minecraft, but instead manages to be something of an evolution. The JRPG features add direction and focus, while the Dragon Quest setting brings charm and personality. Dragon Quest Builders is a game that is simply as big as the player wants it to be, and is an essential purchase for both fans of Minecraft and Dragon Quest.

Last weekend I had the great fortune to go with Professor Hattori of Nodia's Garden Lab and about twelve students to visit Kobayashi Kunio sensei's Bonsai Museum in Edogawa-ku. Kobayashi-sensei has won numerous Japanese and international awards for his mastery of Japanese bonsai. By chance I had met him, his foreign apprentice Valentin, and other students a few weeks ago at the Iriya Asa Gao (morning glory) festival.
The Bonsai Museum, open six days a week in Shitamachi, far exceeded my imagination. Our large group was met at the gate by one of the Japanese apprentices. Initially we were left to admire the astounding bonsais set on simple wood stands in the courtyard. I noticed Valentin and another apprentice lifting and carry several plants, and later realized that they placing the trees in the very traditionally designed rooms of the ten year old Museum.
On first view, the dozens of trees are overwhelming: each a miniature world combining meticulously crafted tree, moss, in ceramics or on stone bases. Some of the trees are 600 and even 1,000 years old, and all display a refined beauty that is a mix of taking natural elements to extreme conditions. In a photo book describing his career, Kobayashi sensei says that early on he often tried too hard and in retrospect apologizes to those trees that he killed.
The Museum structure is a series of five interconnected formal tatami rooms, including one set up for tea ceremony with a small door entrance and area for coals and a kettle. Each room has one bonsai tree arranged with a scroll, small figurine, and short table in the ceremonial, slightly elevated section. Kobayashi-sensei worked closely with architects and designers to create an ideal environment for the contemplation of his master works. It is hard to believe the building is only 10 years old; it was so well designed that on a hot summer day, you could feel cool breezes.
More photos of Bonsai Museum, a master lesson from Kobayashi sensei, and lunch in Shibamata after the jump.

Our history
Downright Excellent began as a small group in a living room in Haringey, started by Suzanne Williams who worked with young children with additional needs. Suzanne had received training run by the Down Syndrome Educational Trust (DownsEd) and wanted to put their research into practice.
She moved jobs to Surestart in Islington – which in May 2006 contributed £2000 for a pilot project – and Downright Excellent was born. Suzanne ran the Speech and Language groups for children age 0-4 with Down syndrome.
The group was joined in 2007 by Lucy Newham whose son has Down syndrome. Along with Debs Carlin, another mother, Lucy worked tirelessly applying for funding to expand the group and find specialised premises.
Downright Excellent was registered as a charity in September 2007. Administration and organising was originally done by parents, but is now mainly run by a Board which includes parent trustees.
As a charity, we are continually fundraising. Parents and friends run marathons for us, we receive generous donations and we produce Christmas Cards and other items for sale. Our parents are a constant source of inventive schemes for combining fundraising with family fun days.
Our aims are to help children with Down syndrome in London to develop their life skills so they may reach their full potential as individuals and equally participating members of society through, especially but not exclusively:
- educational programmes
- quality play
- education and support for parents
- education and support for siblings
Our charity number is 1120863

How do I properly configure Windows 2000 server with my cable modem?
My ISP uses a cable modem to connect to the internet and assigns me a DNS of: 1 (18.104.22.168,) and 2 (22.214.171.124). When I install Win2000 Server without the Active Directory, everything works fine. I can connect to the internet without any trouble. If I install the AD I can still connect to the internet but cannot browse. When I open my browser, it tells me the page I'm trying to open cannot be found, and it continues to do this for every page that I try to open.
I think there is a conflict between the DNS of my provider and Active Directory. What can I do to solve this problem and get the two to work together?
In DNS manager, you will need to manually delete the root domain (denoted by a "."), and then restart the DNS server service. Once you've done that, you will need to add your ISP's DNS server entries in the "FORWARDER" settings on the Windows 2000 DNS server (found on the properties page of the DNS server itself through DNS manager.)
This way, anything that your domain can't resolve locally (within your local domain - say for example every single web page you ever try to browse to in your entire life,) will be forwarded to your ISP's DNS server for name resolution.

Students Broadcast to Campus and Beyond via Beacon Web News
They're on television screens in the cafeteria, in the Campus Center, and also online, delivering MCLA's news to an ever-growing audience, with increasing recognition. Samantha Kniskern '18 of Milbury, Mass., and Dan Wohler '17 of Methuen, Mass., are the students behind Beacon Web News (BWN).
Last October, with some help from Peter Gentile, the director of MCLA's television studio, and Dr. Shawn McIntosh, a professor of digital journalism, the two students implemented a visual broadcast version of The Beacon student newspaper.
"I wanted a platform to share my work with others" beyond the classroom, explained Kniskern, an anchor, reporter and producer for BWN. "The process moved pretty quickly. We went from ideas to reality in a span of a few weeks."
Since then, she said, "we have had a successful episode every week."
During each production, Kniskern and Wohler typically are helped by four to five other students. And, several others recently began to create and contribute content as reporters in the field.
According to Gentile, a $400,000 upgrade to the campus's television studio last year – that included seven new ENG cameras and accessories, an AVID Media storage server and five high definition (HD) studio cameras – was crucial to the development and implementation of BWN.
The studio's six AVID editing work stations, Kniskern points out, are the same used by 80 percent of film and news productions in the country. MCLA's studio also features a new HD switcher system and two green screens that create the show's virtual set.
"This upgrade to full HD made a program like BWN possible," Gentile said.
In addition to her editing expertise, "I have improved my script-writing skills and camera presence," Kniskern said. "I now have a solid skill set that is used in both film and news broadcasting."
Episodes of Beacon Web News are filmed live-to-tape each Wednesday morning. Although they range from six to 12 minutes in length, the work put in to produce each show takes much longer: a three-minute package requires three hours of editing.
"This does not include filming the package and interviewing sources," said Wohler, an anchor and reporter. "Then, once the package is edited together, we still have to script out our voiceovers that run through the story."
When BWN first launched, McIntosh said, both Wohler and Kniskern were shocked to hear how many people on campus had seen them on screen.
"Some students even thought they were on CNN somehow, because the screens usually show TV shows on them. They continue to get positive comments from people every week, saying they are waiting to see the next episode, and never miss it," McIntosh said.
"That's what makes all of our hard work worth it for me," Wohler said, who plans to become a broadcast/multimedia journalist. One day, he'd like to anchor a program like NBC Nightly News.
"BWN has allowed me to gain anchoring experience, as well as on-location reporting experience," he said. "MCLA is a small school with a wealth of opportunities and resources waiting to be seized."

Odessa, Ukraine
After the establishment of the port and the city in 1792 according to the decree of the Empress Catherine the Great Odessa, owing to wisdom and foresight of the leaders Odessa became the third largest city of the Russian Empire. Full-fledged citizens of the city were representatives of more than 100 nationalities, whose heirs live in Odessa till now.
It is difficult to say what Odessa is famous for: Potemkin Stairs or "Beef Stroganoff" dish, the catacombs or the Opera and Ballet Theater? We believe that for people who loved and love their city and created for it. Odessa still gives birth to geniuses and provides the world. The full list is too long, but some of the most famous citizens of Odessa are David Oistrakh and Svyatoslav Richter, Vladimir Zhabotinsky and Sidney Reilly (model for James Bond), ancestors of Sylvester Stallone, Steven Spielberg and Louis B. Meyer, the founder of MGM.

I have been working on loose-leash walking with Brody since day one, but have never really done a concentrated effort on heeling. I would like him to do something in between loose-leash and heeling, if that is possible. What I mean is a brisk paced walk at my side, but not totally focused on me. Normally when we are walking, he is slightly ahead of me, but the leash is slack. If he ever gets far enough ahead that the leash becomes straight, I stop and wait for him to sit beside me in heel position (close, but not necessarily touching my left leg). When he is walking right where I want him, I feed him treats, but haven't used a clicker for this for quite a while, just reward him for being in the reinforcement zone. I had a session with a trainer who showed me how to correct him by taking a step forward and giving a bit of a snap on his halti before reversing direction. This was very effective, but I don't feel comfortable doing it. Is there a R+ method for achieving the same result, that is keeping the dog relaxed beside me as I walk?

Physiotherapy UK 2015
Physiotherapy UK is the main dedicated professional annual event supported by HCPC registered UK based Physiotherapy practitioners whose basis forms the fourth largest healthcare sector nationally.
After two years at the ICC in Birmingham, the 2015 event is held at The BT Convention centre in Liverpool King's Dock arena on the 16th and 17th October. The last two years events have proved popular with sponsors and exhibitors selling out, with a stands sales growth rate of 45% for last years event compared to the 2013 event.
This year sales are already up on last year with enquiries and bookings coming from an increasingly diverse selection of healthcare product manufacturers and service suppliers. There is a marked increase in recruitment agencies targeting the Physiotherapy market building on a record number of exhibiting companies last year.
Technological advances in mobility aids such as Robot-Assisted Physiotherapy (RAP) are providing new and exciting, and increasingly affordable, devices and products to help get people moving again, aiding recovery times from injury or illness, and the benefits of meeting the professional Physiotherapy sector face to face is proving attractive to these manufactures.
The change in legislation allowing senior physiotherapists to prescribe certain medicines such as painkillers and anti-inflammatories has resulted in more enquiries and a few bookings from pharmaceutical laboratories and suppliers wishing to promote products to physiotherapists.
We are looking forward to the 2015 event which is shaping up to be exciting with an increasingly diverse selection of exhibitors and new event sponsors.

TempEst: Harpsichord Temperament Estimation in a Semantic-Web Environment
Abstract. Issues concerning tuning and temperament bear relevance to music research in areas such as historical musicology, performance and recording studies, and music perception. We have recently demonstrated that it is possible to classify keyboard temperament automatically from audio recordings of standard musical works to the extent of accurately distinguishing between six different temperaments often used in harpsichord recordings. The current paper extends this work by combining digital signal processing with various techniques common in semantic computing and demonstrates the use of the temperament classifier in a Semantic-Web environment. We present the Temperament Ontology which models the main concepts, relationships, and parameters of musical temperament, and facilitates the description and inference of various characteristics of specific temperaments. We then describe TempEst, a Web application for temperament estimation. TempEst integrates the classifier with ontology-based information processing in order to provide an extensible online service, which reports the class and properties of both known and unknown
temperaments. TempEst allows users to upload harpsichord recordings, and provides them with an estimated temperament as well as other inferred characteristics of the instrument's tuning.

Had an amazing experience. Blake was very helpful! Ask to work with him! Blake is extremely knowledgeable & kind. I highly recommend going to visit Walter's Mercedes in Riverside! The staff is friendly, they always have delicious refreshments/coffee & the energy in this dealership is nothing but positive! Thank you Walter's Mercedes-Benz!
Shoutout to Frank, Bryan, Emil, Andrew, and Andy! These gentlemen are experienced. Very easy to do business with. Returning customer.
Christian Garcia made my car buying very fun! We had to do some dectective work trying to unlock my credit but together we got it done and the end result was I got the car I wanted. I love my Passion Smart Car. Thank you Christian for making the transaction happen! I can't thank you enough for your knowledge and especially your kindness and fun personality. Sue Shaw.
Buying a car is generally not on most people's list of fun things to do. It's certainly not on mine. However, I can tell you that all of the folks at Walter's Mercedes-Benz in Riverside were kind, knowledgable and direct. Being honest and up-front is one of the key attributes that I think sets dealerships apart. Specifically, my salesperson, Christian Garcia, and I had a open dialog that resulted in getting to an agreeable deal quickly and painlessly. I would highly recommend Christian to any friend searching for a new car. The whole thing was a positive ...

She is the author of four books. Updated March 08, 2017 Here's an easy way to teach latitude and longitude. The teacher should model each of the following steps which only takes about 10 minutes. Steps Use a large wall map or overhead map.Create a latitude/longitude chart on the board. See Related Features below for an example.Hand out blank charts like the one on the board for students to complete with you.Select three cities to demonstrate.For Latitude: Find the equator. Determine if the city is north or south of the equator. Mark N or S in the chart on the board.Determine which two lines of latitude the city is in between.Show how to determine the midpoint by splitting the difference between the two lines from step seven.Determine if the city is closer to the midpoint or one of the lines.Estimate the latitude degrees and write the answer in the chart on the board.For longitude: Find the prime meridian. Determine if the city is east or west of the prime meridian. Mark E or W in the chart on the board.Determine which two lines of longitude the city is in between.Determine the midpoint by splitting the difference between the two lines.Determine if the city is closer to the midpoint or one of the lines.Estimate the longitude degrees and write the answer in the chart on the board. Tips Emphasize that latitude always measures north and south, and longitude always measures east and west.Stress that when doing the measuring, students should be 'hopping' from line to line, not dragging their fingers along one line. Otherwise, they will be measuring in the wrong direction. Materials Wall or overhead mapChalkboardChalk Continue Reading

crY at goodbye
There is the life in Africa that was.
There is the life in Africa that never was.
There is the Life in Africa that will continue to be.
And then there is me.
I close my eyes and try to embrace the waves of change that crash over me.
Around me.
Behind me.
Without me doing anything at all.
When I see the wave coming that I think might take me closer to shore,
I grab it and hang onto it.
The turbulence propels me,
and I am lifted to a new place... beyond it.
Now I can watch, and cheer my fellow students on.
Ours is not goodbye, after all
but hello
from a new point of view.
My work here is almost done.
Life in Africa continues
and so will my own life,
richer for all I will cry for when I leave
Putting events of the past couple of weeks into words - or putting anything into words while these things have been happening - is proving itself to be an emotional challenge that I feel myself avoiding. There is the part of me that longs to commit the process of change-making to words; there is the other part of me that longs to sit quietly and just BE for a while.
If you've ever hosted a party and felt like you had to sneak away for a minute to have a breather and freshen yourself up a bit before going back out to face the crowd, well... I guess that's me right now. I've not abandoned the pArtY here - just giving myself a minute to breathe before I come back to start filling y'all in on what all's been going on.

An example being the Fallout 3 review from IGN. Fallout 3 apparently runs better on the Xbox 360, therefore the 360 version gets a 9.6, while the PS3 version gets a 9.4. I don't see a problem with this. People deserve to know which version is superior. What I do have a problem with is inferior Xbox 360 games getting the exact same score as their PS3 counterpart.
An example of this is Grand Theft Auto IV. Here is a quote directly from IGN, "While GTA IV is pushing the PS3 and 360 to the limit, it also runs amazingly well. Sure, there are framerate hitches here and there and (particularly on the 360) there is some texture pop in, but it actually runs better than I expected." If the technical problems of Fallout 3 for the PS3 are enough to lower the score by .2 when compared to the 360 version, why have we never seen a PS3 version of a multi-console game get a higher score for the same reason?
I'm sure many gamers have a lot of conspiracy theories as to why this is, but while I'm not going to accuse anyone of any wrong doings, I still find it odd. Imagine if the most over hyped game of the year, Grand Theft Auto IV, were to get a 10 on the PS3, but a 9.9 from IGN, or a 9.5 from Gamespot on the 360. Xbox Fanboys would erupt.
If GTA IV did receive higher scores on the PS3 than the 360, then I would assume that more multi-console owners would have bought Grand Theft Auto IV on the PS3, rather than the 360; regardless of any DLC that is almost irrelevant by now (but that is another topic).
In the first year the PS3 was out, developers were still getting used to the hardware, so many multi-console games were of a slightly lower quality than the 360 counterparts, and they were rated accordingly. Over the past year, however, we have seen most PS3 games get the exact same score as their 360 counterparts, but when I read that the 360 version has problems that the PS3 version doesn't, I can't help but wonder why there is no difference in the score as I feel there would be if it was the PS3 version having the exact same problems.

The firm, which was originally set up in 2013 by Irish entrepreneurs Ian Dodson and Anthony Quigley, has more than doubled its workforce since its inception and is now looking to add even more.
The DMI reported an 86pc increase in revenue across its core business last year and a trebling of its profits in the three-year period.
Speaking about the new roles, co-founder Ian Dodson, said the company is reacting to a global gap in the market for digital certrification.
"We are expanding at such a fast pace because the global skills shortage in digital is acute, and we have produced an industry validated standard that is replicable across international markets."
The DMI produces the most widely taught digital marketing certification in the world, with over 12,500 students and 70 partner institutions teaching its programmes, from diploma to masters level.
"Having developed our business model successfully over the past number of years, we are in a phase of rapid expansion," continued Ian Dodson. "We have a great team and now need to add more of the right people in sales, operations and marketing. We are recruiting actively at this very moment for roles in all of these areas."

Fuse may represent Insomniac's liberation as an independent developer but with their first chance to create for themselves, the studio have turned out their most ordinary and corporate videogame yet. All of the working ideas are in. And while they've compromised on common design, there are moments Fuse arrives at some new value, where the developers are able to specialize, and clearly present a template for something bigger.
The shooting parts threaten change for a genre that's sorely lacking. It's never spelled out exactly how in the game but the four-person shooting dynamics are the heart and make for some real carnage when used in tandem. Much like Insomniac's past work, the firearms are fun as hell to use and are emboldened with character.
It's different from the novelty of putting imaginative guns in something like a character platformer, as much like Resistance, Fuse enters into a genre where all of the worthwhile entries excel in the same way. A third person shooter that's entirely sold on its shooting isn't inherently special but as the common elements blend into the new, there are moments where it begins to feel like a necessary genre piece.
It's in good genre company and derives only from the best. It controls much like the perfect Vanquish with just as much to add to the genre. Whereas Vanquish brought restraint and survival concepts into a format that was simply point and shoot, Fuse proposes an interesting format for co-op pointing and shooting.
If alone, the player can switch between the four agents on-the-fly, making it easy to stack up their own firing combinations, while providing solo-oriented players a way to enjoy all aspects of Fuse. The character transitions prove to be a handy system, unfolding naturally in the context of a firefight. AI's just present enough but still undercooked, making for some frustration trying to keep them alive.
There's generally little variety in combat patterns, with the same repetitive enemies and an eccentric boss occasionally thrown in to remind us of the big potential here. Only late game does Fuse necessitate real cooperation, spending much of the time offering scenarios where players might learn their character specific weapons and how they interact through practice. There are clear setups for the solutions of using each of the high-tech weapons, whether an enemy needs to be crystallized, sniped, warped into oblivion, or thrust away with a blast from the shield.
The cast are effectively non-characters outside of some snarky dialogue and while it's rerouting the usual cinematic focus into a mechanical one, there's a missed opportunity to capitalize on the great diversity of its cast. There are no typified hardened war vets or typified bald men. It also does well to avoid stereotyping the mixed cast for their gender and ethnicity, despite their archetypal roles. It's like a straight-faced Binary Domain in the way it handles characters, and their progression follows with similar RPG-like upgrade trees. It's fine but there's potential to do more with these systems.
The other influence, of course, is Uncharted. Even while no longer under the Sony banner, Insomniac pay homage to Naughty Dog and wear their influences comfortably. For all the climbing about, while it's useful to break up the action, Fuse rarely finds a pragmatic new use for doing it, leaving potential for more co-op oriented segments. Almost every door is a co-op effort but there's also room for some more interesting interactions there.
Following the brevity of the campaign, the Echelon mode's a nice slant on Resistance 2's brand of co-op. It locks into campaign areas and triggers a series of missions, whether it's protecting a Fuse cell or taking down a giant mech. It's decent and worth a few rounds on each of the maps.
Technically it runs well enough and doesn't feel they've hit any rough patches with the transition to non-Sony tech. There were several camera snags that permanently lost their view of the character and a few times the level geometry dropped through but nothing consistent enough to ruin an experience.
There's also the pro-consumer release. Fuse has no online pass, is fully playable locally, and has no DLC at the time of this writing. Much like Vanquish and Binary Domain before it, this is one of the only complete retail experiences out of the box. I always admire that extra bit of pro-consumer goodwill from a modern release.
The plan from here is iteration. It's clear that Insomniac have more work to do and with a bit more finesse and a personal approach, there's enough potential to get this right. For now, there are far worse options for a co-op third person shooter and few better ones.

The Safest Dental Visit is a multi-year campaign designed to promote the
dental practice's commitment to infection control and safety. Clinicians,
educators, speakers & consultants, product manufacturers and distributors and
others interested in patient safety are collaborating to help ensure that every
patient visit is the safest dental visit.
The dental team plays a pivotal role in the campaign. The dental office is
where clinicians address new and emerging threats and increasingly complex
policies and guidelines. It's also where patients express concern (or remain silent
but worry).
Dental practices can participate in the campaign to help educate and train
staff, promote a safe and professional environment, increase patient confidence
and loyalty, attract new patients and enhance the overall image of the practice.

The Pledge
The Safest Dental Visit pledge outlines critical guidelines and practices to
help ensure the safety of every patient. The campaign supports dental practices
who make this pledge by providing information, education, and regular reminders
to engage staff in infection prevention and safety. The collective commitment of
the dental team is then demonstrated to patients with The Safest Dental
Visit Pledge.

Omkareshwar Shiva Temple
Omkareshwar Shiva Temple is located at a distance of one kilometer from Madikeri. The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. The temple was built by Lingarajendra in 1820 and is crafted in Islamic and Gothic style of architecture. According to the legend, Lingarajendra killed an honest and pious Brahmin to fulfill his political ambition. Due to this he got Brahma Hatya Dosha and had nightmares. Later, Lingarajendra was advised to build a temple to come out of this Dosha. He then made Omkareshwar temple and started performing daily rituals. Shivlinga in Omkareshwar is considered to be one of the most sacred and it is believed that praying to this Shivilinga will help devotee get rid of all sins.
The bars of the windows of the temple are made from Panchaloha and an alphabet lim has been placed in between the bars. The temple has huge tank in front which attracts lots of tourists from across the country. The temple has beautifully made footpath which leads to Mandap.
Spend every moment in Omkareshwar Shiva Temple filled in its holiness and spirituality.
The best time to visit Omkareshwar Shiv Temple is between the months of October to March.
The Shivlinga inside the temple is said to have been brought from Kashi.
Omkareshwar Temple is opened from 7.00 am to 6.00 pm daily.

The $7.3 billion iShares Gold Trust (NYSEArca: IAU) was up 1% in the final hour of U.S. trading. David Chojnacki, market technician at Street One, said the gold ETF has been trading in a 5% range for nearly 10 weeks, but has been showing short-term strength recently. [Gold ETFs Rise]
"Volume has also increased in the last several sessions, when volume in the rest of the market has been weak," Chojnacki said. "The global debt crisis may be the perfect fundamental catalyst to move the gold ETF out of its trading range and provide a profitable breakout trade."
Moody's downgraded Ireland on Tuesday after last week cutting its rating on Portugal to non-investment grade. Growing concerns over Italy's fiscal accounts are "driving the gold price up and the euro down" amid the safety trade, wrote Daniel Wills and Nicholas Brooks at ETF Securities in a weekly report.
"Concerns that Greece may also be allowed some form of debt default appeared to add to investor fears," the analysts said. "Much worse than expected U.S. payrolls growth helped anchor expectations of low U.S. interest rates for the foreseeable future, providing another boost to the gold price."
Gold prices jumped Tuesday after the release of the Fed minutes. "Some participants noted that if economic growth remained too slow to make satisfactory progress toward reducing the unemployment rate and if inflation returned to relatively low levels after the effects of recent transitory shocks dissipated, it would be appropriate to provide additional monetary policy accommodation," according to the minutes.

I flashed my Samsung Galaxy S with 4.1.1 through Odin. But I didn't like it, so I wanted to restore it to Android 2.3 -- and and while restoring it my computer suddenly restarted and my mobile phone turned off.
Now the problem is that when I try to open my mobile it doesn't respond: it gives my a little vibrate but the screen gives me nothing. When I try to start it in download or recovery mode it does the same: it just gives me a little vibrate.
I tried to connect it to my PC but nothing happened. When I charge it, it gives me nothing.
I replaced the battery and it did the same.
Is there anything I can do to revive my phone?

This time last year, Mr Lottie was very very seriously ill, and awaiting a life saving operation - so gardening and the allotment didn't feature too highly on my list of things 'to do'. It was all that I could manage to do the basics.
The lawns are looking good (I did some weeding and feeding which has improved them) and of course the chooks work hard fertilising them eating the bugs!
I bought some wire edging fencing for around most of the beds, and much to the chooks disgust, it has so far foiled all their plans to use the beds as dust baths.
Just a glimpse of some of the many flowering plants this week
The Alstromeria are doing well this year
I have different shades of yellows and other colours dotted around
I have a couple of urns of succulents which are, at last, growing this year
We went away to York for 5 days and whilst we were away the Phormium sprouted two flower stalks!
Just on of several clematis flowering their hearts out
One side of 'Kath's Garden' flowering alongside the garden room
lots more to flower yet too
Pretty pink cranesbill geraniums
Just a glimpse of my blue border
I have been working hard up the allotment today so that's all for tonight.
More catching up to do tomorrow.
We escaped our nasty neighbour's howling dog for a few days in York - such bliss!
Back to the howling today though - such stress

Thank you so much for visiting

You all have heard about the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival right? While the tulips are our most famous blooms, there's nothing quite as wonderful as entire fields of bright, cheery daffodils against our Mt. Baker backdrop. It's just so beautiful in March with the Daffodils blooming and there are so many fun events and exhibits in La Conner during the month of March. If you can't make it to Skagit Valley Tulip Festival in April, skip the crowds and join us in March this year for the La Conner Daffodil Festival!
To get you started, check out the Daffodil Bloom Map . The Daffodil Bloom Map is updated daily to show you which fields are blooming. Did you know that more tulip, iris, and daffodil bulbs are produced here than in any other county in the U.S!
According to Brent Roozen, owner of RoozenGaarde and the Washington Bulb Company, RoozenGaarde grows more than 450 acres of daffodils, compared to 350 acres of tulips.
The three major varieties planted are Dutch Master, Flower Carpet and Standard Value – Dutch Master is the world's most popular daffodil.
Fields of daffodils are left intact through the bloom cycle and beyond, unlike tulips which are 'topped' toward the end of their bloom cycle.
Daffodil crops are only rotated every 3 years, versus an every-year rotation for tulips – fields that are 3 years old this year will be a solid wash of bright yellow.
Because there is so much to see and do during the Daffodil Festival, we recommend that you plan ahead and make reservations at one of La Conner's lodging establishments. You'll be centrally located and within a few minutes of all of the daffodil fields and display gardens, plus you'll be able to enjoy a visit to our waterfront village, shop in our many specialty stores and dine at one of our amazing restaurants. Also, La Conner Daffodil Festival Guided Tours are available.
There are not many valleys quite as beautiful as the Skagit Valley – and there certainly are even fewer valleys as gorgeous as ours is when the sun is out, the fields are ablaze with color and snow-covered Mount Baker offers a perfect backdrop. Come visit us – we promise that you'll absolutely love La Conner in March!
Call or stop by the La Conner Visitor's Center where you'll find lots of information – including brochures and maps. 511-C Morris St. in La Conner; 360/466-4778. E-Mail: email@example.com
P.S. … While it's always fun to visit La Conner during the spring months – there are tons of reasons to come back again and again – all year round! Take a look at our Visit La Conner on a Return Trip page to learn more about what's fun and engaging during each of our four seasons.

I wish you free time but work!
"Dear friends,
We would like to invite you to participate in our inquiry into "The Structural Creation of Free Time during at Work".
Free time is generally considered in a positive light, but nevertheless is a counterpart to work in that it involves actions that inevitably have to reproduce it. At the same time, it conjures up visions of self-determination. Over the past few years, formal discussions about work and labour have brought to the fore the threat of the borders between work and free time becoming increasingly vaguer, in that free time would be encroaching on work time. This obviously is not restricted to classical work situations, but also involves the unemployed, people who work at home, are self-employed, or unpaid.
We would like you to join an experiment based on a double premise:
- Life is centred around work and this is undesirable.
- If work cannot be dispensed with, at least free time should be retained and developed. This logically leads to the following question: How can free time be incorporated in work?
This is not a project that has to be invented from scratch, as work has always implied workers who have done their best to integrate as much free time into their work situation as possible. You must have tried this yourself, for sure.
We would like you to share your strategies about the structural creation of free time during working hours with us (and others) by mail at email@example.com before Thursday, 23 October 2008.
Considering a few short questions might help you to do this. What are my work circumstances like? Do I have to take precautions so as to create free time unhindered? Do I actually have to simulate work in order to create free time during working hours? What does my creation of free time during working hours actually involve?
This Friday, we will be presenting your strategies and ways to create free time, as well as the circumstances required to do so. This will provide an opportunity for others to profit from your experience and improve their own strategies to create free time during work. The results of our study will be discreetly presented during a party at HOTELbich in Brussels on Friday, 24 October 2008 at 10.05 pm, to which you are cordially invited. If required, full anonymity will be assured.
Please feel free to circulate this e-mail. You may even know someone who has become a specialist in the field.
Kind regards,
Gustave Inc."
