I don't think I've gotten this far into The Love Dare because it always seems like I stand in need of your forgiveness rather than your standing in the need of my forgiveness.
Today's Dare:
Whatever you haven't forgiven in your mate, forgive it today. Let it go. Just as we ask Jesus to "Forgive our debts" each day, we must ask Him to help us "forgive our debtors" each day as well. Unforgiveness has been keeping you and your spouse in prison too long. Say from your heart, "I choose to forgive."
First of all, I don't think this is the forum for me to write about what I might be forgiving you for. That belongs in my heart or a private journal or in a conversation with you.
Second, you have been such a wonderful wife who does not consistently or overtly sin against me. I'm so thankful that you don't make a practice of nagging, ridiculing, deceiving, or undermining me (whatever all of those mean).
Third, alas, I do forgive you, though. We're two fallen humans. We sin against each other. Sometimes it's sins we commit. Sometimes it's neglecting to do the things we should do for each other.
And I pray that you continue to forgive me for anything that might be stuck somewhere in your heart. You are precious to me and I truly want to be a couple that can be passionate enough to disagree or accidentally say something yet open and graceful enough to forgive.
Our heart has to be for growth and deeper love for each other and God. We can only do that if we keep short accounts. I'll do my best to forgive when you need it from me and to submit to God more fully so you'll have fewer reasons to need to forgive me. 🙂

I am a housebound spouse, married(15plus years) to quite a generous soul who takes marvelous care of me. I am attending school for the first time after having spent a lifetime gamely trying to understand the greater world. I live for my dogs, I have four which is madness.

One take, one chance: filming Victoria with the EOS C300
© MonkeyBoy GmbH
Danish cinematographer Sturla Brandth Grovlen filmed the entire 140 minutes of the movie Victoria's gritty scenes, consecutively in a single shot, using the EOS C300 digital cinema camera. CPN writer James Morris caught up with him and found out the full story behind a remarkable film...
Victoria made a considerable splash this year. Alongside Sturla Brandth Grovlen's Silver Bear for cinematography at the Berlin Film Festival, the film also won the Berliner Morgenpost Readers' Jury Award and the Prize of the Guild of German Art House Cinemas as well as being praised at last month's Camerimage festival in Poland where Grovlen was hosting a special Canon Cinema EOS workshop and where another film he shot, Rams, won the Silver Frog in the main Camerimage completion. Victoria was complimented universally for its technique, general viewer appeal and artistic value. Directed by Sebastian Schipper, best known for his acting role in the seminal Run Lola Run, Victoria is about a young girl from Spain who is in Berlin for a couple of months trying to earn some money and have some fun. After a night dancing in a club, she meets a group of boys who take her under their wings and want to show her Berlin's underbelly. Whilst she wants to have a fun night, what she actually finds herself involved in is a bank robbery. However, the film is not about the robbery, it's about the hour before and the hour afterwards, which Grovlen captured in real time using a single continuous take.
"The concept of the one take was the director's idea," explains Grovlen. "When he contacted me it was one of the first things he said: 'We're going to do it one take. What do you think about that?' Sebastian's idea was that we were going to do it more like a documentary, do it more in the moment, not stylised, more like a punk band: raw, intense. One of the things we talked about was how to keep it fresh, not to have it too constructed." The film was not heavily influenced by the previous award-winning single-take movie, Alexander Sokurov's 96-minute 2002 film Russian Ark. "I haven't seen Russian Ark, but from what I understand it's very controlled and stylised, unlike Victoria. So we didn't have a one-take film as a reference, and didn't want to have one."
Victoria was not a closely controlled production, unlike Russian Ark. "The script was without dialogue, like a 20-page treatment," continues Grovlen. "We knew the action but didn't necessarily know how the dialogue was going to develop. We split the film into ten parts, and rehearsed each part separately. This was in some ways script and character development. It was a great possibility for me to see what works and what doesn't. The actors were more or less free to do as they pleased. I didn't plan any specific camera moves, although I had ideas about how to get in and out of the car for the driving scene, and because I had rehearsed it my body kind of knew what to do."
The film is shot with the camera in amongst the action, although not as if it is the point of view of a specific person. "The camera is a fly on a wall, and an extra character," argues Grovlen. "But people who have watched the film don't really think about the camera and that it's not cut. The real-time aspect of it does something to the perception of the movie. You don't feel manipulated. It was important to me that it had poetry, and had a style. It wasn't just trying to catch the dialogue, but also trying to catch poetic moments. We did light the film and try to work with colours. But it doesn't feel like something that is put on top of it, it's something integrated."
Choosing the EOS C300
Although there are now a number of digital cinema cameras that could have provided the ability to shoot a whole feature film in one take, in the end Grovlen decided the EOS C300 was the only real contender. "When Sebastian first talked about the one take, it was the first camera I thought of. I'd worked with the C300 before on documentaries, so I knew it was a camera I was comfortable with," he explains. "I needed a camera that recorded that long, had a battery that lasted that long, and that was lightweight. I also needed the light sensitivity. We shot at ISO 2000. I didn't really test other cameras, but I did do a lot of tests on the C300, with different lenses, to see which one provided the best balance of aperture and weight. I quickly went away from the idea of using a recording device. I thought about the C500, but felt very comfortable that the C300 could do the job. I didn't feel I could gain much more from the C500 from this setup. It's a little bit bigger and a little bit heavier, and I was counting every gram."
Unlike other movies that have been cleverly edited to look like one take, most notably Birdman, Victoria really is one single shot from start to finish. There were three takes, but only one was used for the final movie. "Sebastian was very clear about that," says Grovlen. "We do one take and we keep it like that, or we cut it and tell people that. The film had to feel honest. We used the last take. Ironically, technically for me it was not the best one, but it was the best film without a doubt." Each take had little issues, although not readily visible to the viewer. "These were small things like getting caught on the door. The microphone on the camera made a shadow that it hadn't on the previous take. There was an HMI light that was supposed to be turned on before we reached the next location, but the bulb went. There was also another location where the bulb went, and we had to change it with a less powerful bulb. But nobody notices except me!"
"Two incidents came close to ruining the take," adds Grovlen. "The first happened as one of the characters had a panic attack. The scene took place on the street, and two drunk Russians passing by thought it was for real and wanted to help. Luckily, Sebastian Schipper managed to keep them away from the scene. The other incident was after the bank robbery and the characters are driving away. We had a route planned, but in the midst of the chaos, we took a wrong turn and headed directly to the base where we had the crew waiting for the next scene. I managed to see this out of the corner of my eye and framed to one of the characters that were lying on the floor of the car. The chaos added a lot of drama to the scene and actually makes it better, but it was close to a disaster!"
The C300 handheld rig
Perhaps the most amazing aspect of Victoria is that it was all shot handheld, without even the use of a body-mounted Steadicam, which would have been too bulky and ungainly to follow some of the action. The C300 was installed inside a RedRock cage, weighing around 5.5kg in total, with a heat package around the viewfinder to prevent it fogging up. This provided a top handle, as Grovlen wasn't using the handle that comes with the C300. "I had a hook made that could be pulled out behind the handle. I planned to use it in the car, resting the camera on a bungee cord that was installed inside. However I didn't use it in the take that became the final film. I could also hold the handle when running, or if I had to use my other hand to support myself when going upstairs. As long as I was moving with the actors, all the shaky bumpy stuff disappeared a bit, because the camera becomes a part of the movement of the actors. My biggest fear was that the actors would leave me behind, and I'd have to catch up, which would really make the camerawork obvious. It's also very shaky in some points, but it comes together, because when the drama happens and the actors become agitated, I move faster, and move more agitatedly too. It was a kind a symbiosis with the actors, kind of a method camera!"
Capturing the sound was also complicated with the action and camera moving dynamically between locations, and the constraints of the single take. This was a part of the film that did require significant mixing and editing. "We had three sound crews waiting at different locations with booms," explains Grovlen. "The actors had microphones on them. The camera also had a microphone. We used that, for example inside the cars, and some locations where the sound boom operators couldn't be. We were very aware that this wouldn't be perfect, and there would be a million mistakes with it. But we agreed that this was okay. We used these mistakes to add to the realism."
Unsurprisingly, the whole of the movie was shot with a single lens. It would not have been possible to change lenses whilst maintaining the single take. Grovlen explains: "I also tested the EF mount with some lenses, but I like to be able to control the focus with cinema lenses, because of the declicking and slow controlled focus changes. The Canon Cinema lenses were too big and bulky for this kind of handheld work. However, I have used the Canon compact primes on TV series, as well as the EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM and EF24-70mm f/2.8L II USM. They're great. Also very lightweight, with a very long zoom range. But I'm leaning mostly towards PL cinema lenses, because of the stepless aperture adjustment and the focus control." Because he feels the digital image can become too sharp, Grovlen often shoots with a soft filter, usually a Black Pro-Mist 1/8.
Post production and film quality
Victoria was shot in the C300's standard 50Mbit/sec XMF format, using a pair of 64GB CompactFlash cards in dual recording mode. The C.Log format was used, so although there was no editing to be done, there would be plenty of flexibility in the grade, which was performed using Da Vinci Resolve. "Our grader, Pana Argueta, quickly understood how to approach the film, and pushed the colour and the contrast a little further than I would have dared to do, but that really gave an extra dimension to it," explains Grovlen. "When he came with his first take on the film, that really blew me away. He gave it a lot of punch, a lot of colour, when I would have been more conservative than his approach."
Grovlen was very pleased with the visual quality achieved by the C300 on Victoria. "I had not seen the film on the big screen until the premiere at the Berlinale. I felt it held up really well. The visual style, the handheld camerawork was very energetic and intuitive. There were some highlights and graininess coming out because we had to push up the shadows, but this merely added to the realism. Some reviews talked about the energetic grainy digital image."
So what effect has winning the Silver Bear had on Grovlen personally? "I'm still in the clouds. I was just super happy with the response the movie got after the premiere. To have the cinematographer in the reviews rarely happens. Winning the Silver Bear was out of this world. There have been a few phone calls and interviews. But I shot three features last year so I need a break!" After the critical success of Victoria, however, which continues to pick up awards at film festivals, we're not sure how long that break is really going to last.

Margaret Glaspy
"Emotions and Math" is not simply the name of Margaret Glaspy's new debut album. That expression drills right to the heart of the New York singer-songwriter's proper introduction, a mission statement both artistic and personal.
Glaspy, who's 27 and grew up in Red Bluff, California, self-produced the debut album Emotions and Math, which frames her revealing ruminations in shards of jagged guitar rock. Building on its early buzz — Rolling Stone hailed first single "You and I" for its "hot barbs of electric guitar," and BrooklynVegan declared it a "stomping rocker with a DGAF attitude".
She's a fierce believer in the power of specifics to tell universal truths, to capture emotions we've all felt but don't necessarily hear reflected in pop music. Some truths are uglier than others, but Glaspy never backs down.
The album also showcases Glaspy's finely tuned ear for production. She had plenty of practice; having recorded demos of the album twice at home before eventually ironing out the wrinkles at Sear Sound studios in New York. Glaspy says."It's taken a minute," she admits, "but I'm so glad that I waited to record my debut. I went through so many different phases before I got to where I am now. It feels like it took 26 years to make this album."

text: BUSINESS Kastner wears religion on his sleeve 5:00 AM PDT 4/3/2007 by Etan Vlessing , AP FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Empty Are you a Jew? Don't ask Jamie Kastner. The question annoys the Canadian documentarymaker. He gets asked it a lot.So Kastner shot "Kike Like Me," a road movie bowing at Toronto's Hot Docs documentary festival on April 24. In the film, Kastner answers a hypothetical "yes" when asked whether he's Jewish, followed by an equally terse "Why do you want to know?" to gauge how friend and foe reacts."I saw theatrical possibility from seeing how Jewish identity plays out in so-called civilized cultures where we've gotten over all 'that,'" Kastner explains. The results are revealing. Kastner underwent a shotgun bar mitzvah from proselytizing Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn asking passers-by "Are you Jewish?"; got turfed from Pat Buchanan's living room after asking why the TV pundit attacks Neocons for being Jewish; debated Gilad Atzmon, an Israeli-born Jew who served in the Israeli Defence Force and who now lives in "self-exile" in Britain, and partied with Amsterdam soccer hooligans proudly calling themselves "Joden" (Jews).The film's title is a play on "Black Like Me," John Howard Griffin's classic 1961 book about a white reporter dying his skin black to experience bigotry first-hand.But there's more of a connection with Elia Kazan's 1947 movie "Gentleman's Agreement," where Gregory Peck plays a crusading reporter pretending to be Jewish for a magazine article exposing racial intolerance.Kastner does the same for his documentary. Like Peck's character, he is at first peeved by early prejudice, until Kastner gets more than he bargained for when asking Parisians of Middle Eastern background what they think about Jews. And his breaking point comes at Auschwitz in Poland when Kastner abruptly tells his cameraman they won't be joining the tourist hordes visiting the original ovens, and instead will just go home."They were perceived as Jews, and died for it. And I'm perceived as a Jew, and it suddenly doesn't sound like ancient history," Kastner says at the end of a personal journey in which he appears aloof and wise-cracking as the film begins, to experiencing profound menace at its end.Not surprisingly, the 10 broadcasters who prelicensed "Kike Life Me" -- including BBC Storyville, the U.S. Sundance Channel, Canada's TVOntario, AVRO in Holland, Denmark's TV2, YLE in Finland and Australia's SBS -- felt equal menace over the film's title.But Kastner says only one broadcaster, Toronto-based Chum Ltd., rejected the "Kike Like Me" title and chose instead "Jew Like Me."Chum production executive Charlotte Engel insists the word "Kike," while suitably in context in the film, might be considered discriminatory by some.So, is Kastner Jewish?"Why do you want to know?" he shoots back, with the barest trace of a smile.

This simple, hearty, brothy lentil soup comes from the wonderful Kate over at Cookie and Kate has a lovely recipe, and I've adapted it slightly to get our perfect ratios. She says it's roughly based on America's Test Kitchen's lentil soup. It takes about 1 hour from start to finish, with about 20 minutes of active work.
This recipe makes 6 complete meals, and is perfect for batch cooking and freezing. It also makes the house smell amazing, because of the aromatics like garlic, curry powder, thyme, and cumin. It may seem like a lot of oil, but it contains exactly the right number of fat servings, and the oil is an important part of what makes the soup so rich and flavorful.
On a different note, why are there so many Kates and Katie's in the food blogging world?
Warming Winter Lentil Soup
Each Serving Contains:
- 14 oz Veggies
- 1 Protein Serving
- 1 Fat Serving
Veggie Serving
- 2 lb (TOTAL, raw) of:
- diced onion
- chopped carrots
- 2 large cans (28-oz) diced tomatoes, with juice (or 3.5 lbs diced tomatoes)
- 2 cups chopped fresh collard greens or kale
Protein Serving
- 16 oz (2 cups) dry brown, green, or yellow large lentils, rinsed (equivalent to 36-40 oz cooked)
Fat Serving
- 3 oz (6 tablespoons) extra virgin olive oil (6 fat servings)
Condiments & Spices
- 8 cups vegetable broth
- 4 cups water
- 2 teaspoons salt, more to taste
- Large pinch red pepper flakes
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 6 garlic cloves, pressed or minced
- 4 teaspoons ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Juice of 1/2 to 1 medium lemon, to taste
Maintenance Modifications
- Grain Additions: Serve over 4 oz of cooked grain such as barley, rice, or quinoa, add potatoes, or eat with a slice of Ezekiel bread.
- Protein Additions: Increase lentils (and add more liquid at to compensate), or add veggie sausage.
- Fat Additions: Add avocado to serve.
- Heat the olive oil over a large heavy-bottomed pot or dutch oven, over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and carrot and cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic, cumin, curry powder and thyme. Cook until fragrant while stirring constantly, about 30 seconds.
- Pour in the tomatoes and cook for a few more minutes, stirring often, in order to enhance their flavor.
- Pour in the lentils, broth and the water.
- Add salt and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper.
- Raise heat and bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer.
- Cook for 30 minutes, uncovered, or until the lentils are tender but still hold their shape.
- Optional: In a blender, puree 2 cups of the soup and return it to the pot, or use an immersion blender briefly to partially puree the soup for thickness.
- Transfer 2 cups of the soup to a blender. Protect your hand from steam with a tea towel placed over the lid and purée the soup until smooth.
- Remove the pot from heat and stir in the juice of half of a lemon. Taste and season with more salt, pepper and/or lemon juice until the flavors really sing.
- Add the chopped greens. If batch cooking and freezing, I leave out the greens and just add them to individual bowls at the time of serving. I don't really like how greens get when they are frozen. They don't need to be cooked, they will wilt nicely into the hot soup.
- Serve immediately. Leftovers will keep well for about 4 days in the refrigerator, or the soup can be frozen for several months.

Some businesses just don't get it
I find it both amusing and rather sad that I still get emails from local businesses which do not seem to have moved in their thinking beyond somewhere in the latter end of the last century, at least as far as marketing is concerned.
You get the sense that they think email is hi-tech.
And some can't even get that right. One local real estate agent, part of a nationwide group with fancy offices and distinctive uniforms, keeps sending me emails addressed:
Dear ,
That's right, can't even figure out how to do a mailmerge.
And that's not all. At the foot of the message – which is pretty meager anyway, a plea to click on a link to go to a website, without telling me what it is about – is the following message:
If your e-mail program does not allow you to click directly on the above address (such as AOL), you will need to copy and paste the address into your World Wide Web browser (eg Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer).
Netscape Navigator?
I would unsubscribe but – in clear breach of the Australian Spam Act – there is no option provided to do so.
What was I saying about last century?
The New, Connected Consumer
Businesses like that real estate franchise don't seem to realize that there is a new consumer abroad in the land today, what author Brian Solis in his book The End of Business As Usual: Rewire the Way You Work to Succeed in the Consumer Revolution
calls the social/connected consumer.
Unlike the traditional consumer – a member of an increasingly rare species – who studied print catalogs and maybe even read emails, and unlike the merely online consumer who takes to search engines and finds sites with relevant products or services, the new, connected consumer goes first to her social streams – her network on Facebook, on Twitter or on some other social platform.
Here's where the home based business owner comes into her own. She has not spent all that dosh on fancy uniforms. She has not rented out expensive office space on Main Street. She can use her marketing budget on what counts – smart strategies and tactics to connect with her customers where they are.
And that is increasingly, overwhelmingly, on the social web.
That's where the rubber hits the road these days.
Not on Netscape.
Or email.
(And yes, email still works – for some. Just not a great strategy for most of us to rely solely or mainly on that particular channel.)

While you may be focusing on paint colours and architectural styles, one area to pay careful attention to is vanities you will have in your home.
When selecting vanities for your Muskoka, Ontario home, there are a few factors to consider. The first is the atmosphere that you are trying to create in your home.

The final factor to consider when choosing vanities is the amount of space that you have available to work with.

Announce: DaJAngband v1.1.0 released
(a.k.a. the "I have no life so I design my own variant" variant.)
Savefiles are broken since the previous version.
changes since 1.0.99:
Fixed bugs since 1.0.99 (9/9/99 update):
fixed: hidden attributes on randarts (I consider that a bug anyway)
fixed: power sprite character history is sometimes messed up
fixed: see invisible doesn't let you see monsters which are temporarily invisible.
fixed: when arrows get brand/slays from a bow, it sometimes reads flags from the bow which aren't there (this only had an effect on the artifact short bows Amrod and Amras).
fixed: flags from weapon in shield slot (usually main gauche) can add extra blows to melee.
fixed: sometimes disturbs when it's not supposed to
fixed: slime and silver poison display doesn't always update when it should
fixed: most recommended classes for each race aren't highlighted in the birth menu.
fixed: doesn't display correct damage for acid-coated ammo
fixed: wizard lock doesn't work when targetting a space with an object
fixed: potion of see invisible often only lasts a couple turns
fixed: Elven cloak of enveloping came up as {splendid} instead of {cursed}.
fixed: Monsters try to summon even if all spaces are filled and no new monsters can be brought in: this still may happen with monsters who don't have the SMART flag
Information Stuff:
- can now recognise trap types on the map (usually..)
- if you know that a monster never moves, then you remember where it is.
- monster list is now displayed in backwords order, so it will usually be toughest to weakest (but it's still by index number).
- object list added, and object list command ']'
- Cursed egos (as well as cursed artifacts) now psuedo as 'terrible'. Stuff which previously psuedoed as 'broken' now psuedos (more accurately) as 'worthless'.
Cool New Features:
- golem race added: powerful but has NOREGEN flag
- monsters in groups sometimes wake up their friends
- themed levels added along with appropriate terrain (water for swamps, ponds & trees for the forests, extra rubble for dwarf mine & earth cave). Ordinary trees are in as monsters but have several hacks which make them more like terrain features (They are detected by mapping, but not by detect monster.)
- autosaves whenever a new level is generated
Minor Tweaks:
- slowing is more likely to work against hasted monsters
- torch/lantern of darkvision no longer gives darkvision when it's out of fuel
- amnesia sometimes causes the map to be forgotten like it used to
- added a couple new potions (replacing !boldness and !lose memories).
- humans get one extra stat point to spend at birth.
- Mist of amnesia affects monsters within 14 spaces whether in LOS or not
- monsters that resist nexus have a small chance to resist teleother
- breath shield effect is a little more effective than it was
- stat potion allocation modified again to even out stat gain throughout the dungeon.
Other Improvements & new stuff:
- IMPACT blows: the earthquake is triggered before the monster actually dies so the monster's drop isn't affected. Quakes are triggered with critical hits and rarely otherwise.
- re-arranged prayers so that priests only use eight books (previously they were the only class which still used all nine books in its realm). No one should have to lug around nine books to have access to all their spells.
- added some new alchemy realm spells. The chemical combat spellbook is almost completely redone.
- player now gets XP for earthquake damage when purposely cast by a spell (for spells like nature-volcanic eruption and black-ball of destruction).
- heard but unseen monsters now appear on the monster list and can be targetted, both without showing the specific race name (just the type).
- tree monsters and wall monsters block line of sight.
- damage through immunity fixed: can only happen in melee: 3/4 element damage, 1/4 hurt damage
- *enchant* scrolls can re-enchant disenchanted artifacts.
- chance for double ego 'of lightness' on heavy armor (meaning a heavy armor can get "of resist acid of lightness").
- nature realm re-organized a little (added fire spray and resist silver, removed detect evil)
- spread effect added for fire spray, bug spray, and thunderclap spells. It's like a ball spell centered on the caster which does full damage to everything within 2 spaces away and damage diminishes slowly further away than that.
- artifacts now have a maximum depth they can appear.
- HURT_COLD and HURT_FIRE flags are implemented. Not a lot of monsters have them: mainly HURT_FIRE is for tree monsters and HURT_COLD is for glass/crystal monsters.
- White knight and Black knight classes added.
Notable changes between 1.0.98 and 1.0.99 (9/9/99 update):
- graphics tiles done for old tileset.
- detection radius is now fixed (like in new V, but not as big an area as new V).
- probing now reveals everything that cheak_peak reveals except doesn't always reveal spells.
- slays/brands have partial stacking: (+25% added to x3 multiplier)
- ability to target monsters in walls
- new room types: empty vaults (including some room designs in vault.txt which aren't used for real vaults) ..for dungeon veriety.
- nexus now has approprate effects on monsters
- polymorph should be much less dangerous now (usually doesn't heal). Polymorph spells/wands are also more likely to work now.
- chance based on (clevel + luck + device skill) for wand damage to get a boost (not too big a boost)
- static resistance added (for drain charges) (included in random resistances). IMPORTANT: This is not complete protection like disenchantment resistance is.
- objects in rubble can be found by searching without digging up the rubble. This is done so people like me don't feel like we have to dig up every pile of rubble.
Download link:
The DaJAngband website is not updated yet (it still says the newest release is the 1.0.99 update) because I'm having trouble getting to the webpage to edit it.
EDIT: DaJAngband website is now updated. The link (as always) is in my sig.
The Knight classes: The knight classes are all pretty similar to each other except they each use a different magic realm. They are very tough fighters with mediocure skills and a little bit of magic. They are horrible at stealth and do not like to run away from a fight. There is planned to be a knight class for each magic realm eventually. (The Chaos Warrior is the knight class of the chance magic realm. It is not called a knight because the chance realm is chaotic and knights are lawful).

Yes. I've kindof given up on actual gameplay testing the deeper stuff myself before releasing a version because I very rarely get that far, and other people have been very effective finding those bugs or things which aren't quite right for me.
The knight classes are new and untested, but honestly the balance of the knight classes doesn't matter to me that much. The knight classes are mainly meant for beginners who want to play a tough fighter who can still cast spells. (Then again, the knight classes might teach beginners bad habits because their horrible stealth discourages running away and picking fights.)
I think the war mage and the alchemist are the classes most in need of testing. I'd like feedback on my changes to the alchemist class (which are mostly in the chemical combat spellbook- the 1st alchemy dungeon book). Also, the black magic realm hasn't had much testing (necromancer, assassin, and now the black knight). Then there's also the tourist class which I've never gotten very far with because they're a hard class to play.
..basically I'd appreciate any feedback you have on any classes because nearly all of them could use more testing.

A very minor bug:
When using point-based, the amount of Gold "rerolls" when you try to increase a stat which you cannot actually "afford" to increase.
|November 15, 2009, 13:31
Hmm, it's not working on my 64-bit Vista machine... I run the exe, and nothing happens... I do get a DajAngband.exe (32-bit) process in my task manager, but it's only using 900K or so of memory...
You read the scroll labeled NOBIMUS UPSCOTI...
You are surrounded by a stasis field!

hrm, it seems that DJA has note-taking ability. (With : ) but those guys won't show up on file-dump. In fact, I have no idea where they go.
I'll try to take notes by hand.

a warning: Themed levels allow out of depth monsters much easier than normal levels, so if you find a themed level early, be careful. (This will be lessened in next version).

Key Elements of using Online Schedule Templates
Good managers realize that the more effective internal operations, the higher the long-lasting profitability associated with company However, whenever making a purchasing choice with respect to employee scheduling pc software, also though instinctively this seems on the outset to function as the right solution that is automated the customer still must justify the price. The article that follows addresses price justification and makes an instance that is clear of staff scheduling software is the way to go when smoothing down workflow.
The reason that is first supervisor might wish to utilize is time. When working with online scheduling software the task takes much less time than putting together an employee schedule paper that is utilizing. It all can add up. A minutes that are few here or here accumulates from a time standpoint and in effect from a cost savings standpoint. Employee scheduling programs can put together schedules well into the long term and modifications can be made to the schedule quite easily.
The reason that is second use its capability to cohabitate well with the other applications on your platform. This infers the software has the convenience of information sharing and as such makes it easier for you as supervisor to render decisions with respect to the employee routine that is current. The user is allowed by the software to import information from other files and subsequently frees up time since data doesn't must be reentered.
Third, worker scheduling application is not merely time-efficient pertaining to creating the routine an interface is had by it that is generally not tough to understand. The capacity to navigate from place easily to destination is greatly useful to the supervisor. The manager can employ its use without having any background whatsoever in using such a system in other words. There is subtlety employed inside the interface assisting the manager in ease of management.
Reason four: Think as manager without the correct tools about it, employee scheduling could present quite the headache for you personally. The tool that is automated of scheduling software lets you evaluate operational needs and provide coverage. This means the automated tool is customizable to your industry and your requirements.
Fifth: staff scheduling pc software best serves the user once the emphasis is placed by it on scheduling. Have you noticed how many among these scheduling options are part of the bigger application? By using computer software created specifically for employee scheduling a software is gotten by you which addresses all the issues of management with regard to coverage.
Sixth: A provider who places focus within the development of employee scheduling pc software has to approach such a task in two ways. One means would be to head to users who currently make use of the item that is automated determine where its within the consumer's own product they require enhancement. Secondly, as part of this process that is evolutionary the software developer should also make inquiry as to current customer issues. The automation tool becomes all the far better by integrating innovation with regard to current offerings; along with added features when addressing consumer needs. It doesn't get any much better than this when it comes to (resulting) item functionality
Seventh, a manager that is good also) knows retaining good employees greatly decreases expenses pertaining to training and the adverse effects of the "revolving door" syndrome. Staff scheduling system provides a genuine way to keep lines of communication open between the supervisor and his or her employees. It provides workers with greater access in the real method of the) convenience when reviewing the schedule; and b) makes life most of the more manageable for the worker along with the manager since schedule changes are not difficult to effect.
Eighth, the known fact can there be are federal too as state regulations to consider when scheduling employees. Dependent on the type of your business, different rules may apply. Employee scheduling web application is customizable from the standpoint you to immediately alter and start your schedule to stay compliance with state and federal laws that it allows.
Ninth, as a manager you are busy: This means you don't have a deal that is excellent of to spend learning new systems. In this light, automated systems must make it easy to transition from a way of doing things to your next, whether manual or automated. Employee scheduling software generally enables this learning curve and the manager finds he/she, when reaching a level that is certain of, is running the applying just as if having tried it each of their expert career.
The reason that is tenth with regards to price justification of employee scheduling is functionality. There are lots of features that are relative to scheduling: preparing the employee schedule maybe not only becomes much easier but can we also say….enjoyable?

November 1997: Madeleine Albright tells a group of Afghan refugee women in Pakistan, "I will never forget you… I will do everything to help you to help your country." But, in 1998, as Taliban fundamentalist armies swarm across the Hazara tribe's homeland in Afghanistan's Central Highlands, Albright's words rang increasingly hollow, hollow and false.
Afghanistan's Forgotten Women
Hollow words did not save one Afghan woman from a public stadium execution.
Members of RAWA protested outside the Foreign Office in Islamabad, Pakistan, while U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan was holding talks with Pakistani officials during a two-day visit. (AP)

Before George Bush became president of the United States this is what women in Afghanistan were facing, as was aired in the movie "Beneath the Veil":
Armed men in turbans force a woman from the truck, and make her kneel at the penalty line on the field. Confused and unable to see, the woman tries to look behind just as a rifle is pointed against the back of her head. With no fanfare whatsoever, she is shot dead. The shaky video camera captures the cheering crowd as people rise to their feet, hoping to get a better view of the corpse on the ground. The blue folds of the burqa begin to stain red with blood.
TRENDING: RUMORS SWIRLING: President Trump's Recent Actions Indicate Something HUGE Is About to Drop
Likewise, before the War in Iraq, Saddam was filling his mass graves and keeping state hired rapists on his payroll. In those 20 years about up to 5% of the population of Iraq were killed or mysteriously disappeared.
This week, Saddam Hussein is finally going before a court to face charges of genocide against the Kurdish minority of Iraq.
Witness Badiya Mustafa Mahmood describes the chemical attacks as she testifies to the court during day 3 of the Anfal Campaign trial in Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone on Wednesday, Aug. 23, 2006. The defendants Saddam Hussein and Ali Hasan Al-Majid are charged with genocide. All the defendants are charged with war crimes related to an internal armed conflict, and with war crimes against humanity. All of the charges will relate to the lead-up to and execution of the Anfal campaign during 1987 and 1988. (AP Photo/Daniel Berehulak/pool)

Removing Saddam Hussein wasn't just the right thing to do…
It was the moral thing to do.
President George W. Bush freed the 50 million people living under these historically brutal regimes… And, President George W. Bush set 25 million women free from two of the worst womens rights abusers the world had ever known.
And yet you wouldn't know this from the supposed women's rights activists.
But, the story is not over yet. There are still women who need help desperately. In The Australian today we read this (Via Instapundit):
Pamela Bone: Muslim sisters need our help
IN Tehran in June, several thousand people held a peaceful demonstration calling for legal changes that would give a woman's testimony in court equal value to a man's. The demonstrators, most of them women, were attacked with tear gas and beaten with batons by men and women from Iran's State Security Forces, according to Amnesty International.

A scene from a Womens Rights March in Tehran in June.
Iranian women may not travel without their husband's permission but they are allowed to wield a truncheon against other women.
Do you think women in Western countries marched in solidarity with the Iranian women demonstrators? Of course not. Do you think there are posters and graffiti at universities condemning the Iranian President? Of course not. You know, without needing to go there, that any graffiti at universities will be condemning George W. Bush, not Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. (I concede Bush is easier to spell.)
You know, before you get there, that at the Melbourne Writers Festival starting this weekend the principal hate figures are going to be Bush and John Howard. You know there will be many sympathetic references to David Hicks but probably none to Ashraf Kolhari, an Iranian mother of four who has been in jail for five years for allegedly having sex outside marriage and, until last week, who was under sentence of death by stoning.

Thank goddess, as they used to say: a few Western feminists have begun to wonder why women who once marched for women's rights are marching alongside people who would take away even the most basic of those rights…
Today, 25,000,000 women are free from two of the most barbaric regimes in history thanks to George W. Bush.
In fact, there has never been another world leader who has given so many women the gift of freedom.
Hollow words are one thing. Taking action is something entirely different.
It's about time we recognize this.

TigerHawk is right on with his assessment of the Australian article.
Liberty and Justice says that "Back in the day, womens rights activists were actually coming up for… women."

In a recent interview with Anderson Cooper, retired Lt. Col. Ralph Peters said that if Trump loses the White House in 2020, his departure could be ugly.
He went on to say that he believes that whether Trump wins or loses, he will continue to cause "great damage" to this country. But if he loses, Peters says, Trump will be "clinging to the doors of the White House."
Peters begins by saying that he thinks that if the Democrats can hold it together, they stand a good chance of reclaiming the White House in 2020 and that he also thinks the President is well aware of that given his current polling.
He brings up that if there is a new President then with that comes a new administration and that Trump would then be in the hands of the courts which is something the commander in chief certainly doesn't want to see.
Peters believes that if Trump does not win re-election in 2020, that this will undoubtedly be the "ugliest departure from the White House in American history."
"I don't think you're going to have to wait to see some of Trump's maliciousness. He's already doing tremendous damage."Lt. Col. Ralph Peters
Peters emphasizes that he thinks President Trump will welcome any help from Russian interference or from any OTHER source in the upcoming election because of his desperation to win the election at all costs.
Peters points out that our own President is an "accessory and assistant" to Russian president Vladimir Putin, who is an enemy to the US because he has chosen to be one and that he wants harm to come to the US through any means necessary.
"If Trump wins, he'll do great damage.
But if he loses the election, he is going to call upon his supporters to violence…
But you will see at least isolated violence in the part of crackpot supporters."Lt. Col. Ralph Peters
Peters says Trump is doing all of this damage with the willing help from Senate Republicans who are "amazingly, undercutting their own institution and its powers for very short-term gain."
Cooper says that he thinks the Republican party of his youth, Reagan's party, the party of Patriots and the Constitution, in Peters' words, is silent and moreover, nonexistent at this point.

Will President Barack Obama get re-elected? History shows Americans prefer to re-elect presidents instead of electing new ones, with 7 of the last 10 presidents winning their re-election bid.
And what about President Obama? The numbers tell a gloomy story for President Obama's re-election chances. First, Obama had a 45% approval rating in Nov 2011. No president has been re-elected with an approval rating below 50% one year before the re-election.
Second, the unemployment rate was 8.7% in Nov 2011. With only one exception, presidents do not get re-elected when they enter the re-election year with high unemployment rates.
So the story looks grim for President Obama. But these numbers tell the wrong story. Because the real numbers that matter is how things are improving. There is a strong correlation between approval ratings and unemployment rates. High unemployment leads to low president approval ratings. And when unemployment falls, approval ratings climb.
Unemployment has improved over the past year and assuming this trend continues, Obama will head into re-election season with a 1.5% two-year reduction in unemployment, down from 9.8% in Nov 2010 to 8.3% today and still improving.
There are other factors that matter: the strength (or weakness) of the opposition candidates, the president's re-election promises, scandals that can derail a re-election bid. But assuming the economy keeps adding jobs, and Obama's approval rating continues to climb, Americans will likely continue their habit of re-electing the incumbent.

HOW TO MAKE £100's IN CASHBACK
Want to earn money when your shopping online? Using a cashback site is a quick and easy way to make money on purchases that you are making online. It is a fantastic way to make money with every order you place online. Who says that there is no such thing as free money?
How does it work?
It is free to sign up to a cashback site (see links below) and once you are registered, just browse through the list of retailers or services and click through to the site you wish to make your purchase from. Buy the product online as you normally would then check your account. The purchase should register straight away and the cashback shows as pending. It can take a few weeks (sometimes months) for cashback to track, so do not be worried if it takes a while. Once the cashback shows as ready to pay, you can choose to save it up or arrange a pay out.
I heard about cashback websites a few years ago and was amazed at how much I quickly started to earn. To date I have had £360 back in cold hard cash, in particular big purchases such as household electricals, really do offer good cashback rewards. Buying insurance online is also a really easy way of earning money.
Cashback sites
This is the UK's top cashback site and has over 4,000 retailers listed on the site.
Method of payment include Amazon gift cards, BACS payment – direct to your bank account, PayPal and Avios travel rewards.

Click to sign up to Topcashback
Over 4,400 retailers listed on the site, easy to navigate menus.
Methods of payment include gift cards, BACS payment – direct to your bank account and PayPal.
This site is different to the others where every purchase you make through Boom25 has the chance to be refunded back to you – up to 100%. Every 25th shopper is a winner, so you stand a pretty good chance of winning. Plus if you don't win big, you are still rewarded with a bonus on every purchase. It is a great exciting way to 'win' back your purchase amount in cashback. There are lots of UK retailers listed, just click on the link and make your purchase as you normally would.
So yes there really is a thing such as free money and it is so simple to do. Just remember to check all the sites out as the cashback rates can differ, especially if you have a big purchase to make. Note that cashback does not need to be declared as a taxable income.

Readers, do note this case and share it, please.
A tribunal has overturned a decision on the bedroom tax, setting a precedent that could force some councils to rethink how they decide who needs a room for an overnight carer.
The ruling, the first by an upper tribunal setting a precedent, overturned a first-tier tribunal decision that had upheld a housing benefit cut by Eastleigh Borough Council.
The Hampshire local authority reduced the benefit of a woman who lives in a three-bedroom house with her daughter and was therefore deemed to have a spare room. The woman contended that she required a room for an overnight carer because she suffered from severe asthma and eczema.
The council…
