Alrighty, this game. My first impulse buy in a long while, and perhaps the most important question to answer is "do I regret it?" Uncharacteristically, I'll answer that right in the header: No. No, I have no regrets at all (thus far). I spent some three hours with Talion in the lands of Mordor last night, it and all three of those hours were engrossing, interesting, and fun. Some funny snippets, some "aww sweet!" bits, and more than a few "ooh's" and "aah's." Vault the jump to splash in the less descriptively-muddy waters.
I could hold myself back no longer, and have succumbed to welcoming darkness of Mordor. Which is to say, I watched a video of Shadow of Mordor's Nemesis system in action and got myself well excited to give it a go, so I bought the thing. To ease the pain some, I found a 25% off code for Green Man Gaming so the cash-burn isn't quite retail-degree. Find out about said code and video after the jump.

BusinessWeek is theorizing that meters on cell phone plans will soon be a thing of the past.
Sprint started an experiment in San Francisco recently, offering a plan for $120 a month with unlimited voice, text-messaging and data service. Add $30 a month for unlimited mobile broadband access.
As smartphones proliferate, such offers will start to seem like a bargain to many consumers racking up data charges, analysts say. Jerry Kaufman, president of wireless consultancy Alexander Resources, predicts 20 percent of U.S. subscribers will be on unlimited plans three years from now . "I wouldn't be surprised if unlimited becomes the choice among consumers," he says.
Before carriers leap full-tilt into all-you-can-eat business models, they may want to review the possible liabilities highlighted in episode 4.8 of "The Simpsons," in which Homer decimates the buffet at the Frying Dutchman. "Yar. 'Tis no man; 'tis a remorseless eating machine."

Ipsa Scientia Potestas Est – Orphan Black Episode Summary 2.5
Ipsa Scientia Potestas Est Episode Summary: Rachel Duncan arrives at her apartment demanding to see the corpse of her loyal monitor, Daniel Rosen. They recognize Helena's handiwork in the slaying, but Dr. Aldous Leekie notes the security camera footage that shows the twins leaving the apartment together. He attributes the vicious murder to Rachel's heavy-handed tactics and urges the shift to a gentler way of handling the clones. Rachel, however, assures him that the nefarious murder of her monitor does not dissuade her from pursuing equally wicked schemes against the clones.Continue reading...
Rachel answers the slaying of her monitor with the shutting down of the stem cell line research meant to treat the unknown illness that clones including Cosima Niehaus suffer. It is a tactic meant to force Sarah Manning to agree to Dyad's wishes. Meanwhile, Cosima continues to look into the synthetic DNA of the clones and learns from her friend, Scott, that geneticists placed provisional patents on everything given the absence of laws on genetics. It is Scott's belief that science as radical as synthetic DNA in the 1970s would have a military patent. Despite Cosima's reliance on Scott's knowledge, the young scientist is discouraged at the Dyad Institute's refusal to employ him. His disappointment is not of great concern to Delphine Cormier for she fortuitously received tissue test results from a stem cell line that are a match to Cosima. The test results were meant for Dr. Leekie, but were accidentally sent to Dr. Cormier. They become suspicious of Dr. Leekie for keeping from them the cultures. With Dr. Cormier's suggestion, they sneak into Dr. Leekie's office to find the cultures compatible with Cosima, and find themselves caught red-handed. Dr. Cormier takes a defensive stance and accuses Dr. Leekie of withholding a stem cell line from them, an accusation the Dyad director denies. Dr. Leekie explains that Rachel has obstructed further testing of the pluripotent stem cell line from baby teeth that he had discussed with Cosima and Dr. Cormier in an attempt to coerce Sarah's cooperation. Furthermore, he imparts the story of the lab fire that cost the lives of several scientists and destroyed reams of data including the original genome. In other words, the project is entirely an orphan with all record of several synthetic sequences that make the existence of the clones viable gone. He asks Cosima to relay to him any information Sarah may have uncovered, but Cosima is adamant in her ignorance of such information. Dr. Leekie remains suspicious, but expresses his willingness to disobey Rachel's order and resumes Cosima's treatment.
With Daniel dead, Rachel is in need of a new monitor, and she sets her eyes on Paul Dierden. The knowledge that Rachel has a monitor despite her self-awareness and privilege surprises Paul. She explains that she merely enjoys a unique vantage compared to the other clones, but reports to Dr. Leekie about her health and wellbeing are still required. Paul agrees to become Rachel's monitor where he is to report to Dr. Leekie about her health, while remaining loyal to her. She explains that Dr. Leekie had become her guardian after being orphaned, but despite this, Rachel's position outranks Dr. Leekie's Dyad directorship. She finds that Dr. Leekie has the propensity to become attached to his subjects and therefore compromising his decisions. She watches the home video from her childhood delighting in the good memories while disliking the fact that Sarah has been studying her background. Rachel begins investigating Cal Morrison and learns from Paul that the anti-corporate lover of Sarah made his money from micro-optics. More importantly, there is a high probability that he is the father of Sarah's child, Kira. Aware of Paul's attachment to Sarah, Rachel taunts him of the fact that Sarah has reunited with the father of her child. She also tests his loyalty by giving him a task that involves the Daniel's gun that was used in the murder of a police officer.
Much to Felix Dawkin's dismay, Sarah brings Helena to his apartment and asks him to chaperone her while she works on straightening her own troubles beginning with the abandonment of Kira to the child's father. In fact, Kira has expressed her disappointment with the lack of affection towards her mother in the last Skype conversation they had. Moreover, she has begun to refer to Cal as daddy. Later, Cal's RV parked in the woods catches the attention of a police officer who has become suspicious of its presence. Precocious Kira shrewdly senses the trouble it will cause them should the police officer snoop inside the RV and happen to find the gun of which Cal is in possession. Kira makes an appearance thus appeasing the police officer of his suspicion and intentionally mentions the burning dinner on the stove thus prompting the police officer to forego his investigation.
Felix brings Helena to the apartment of Detective Art Bell and receives treatment fit for a vicious criminal, which she is, but in spite of this Helena is to stay there for her own protection. Detective Bell begins inquiring about the deceased Prolethean, Maggie Chen, whom Helena was working with before. Witnessing her escape from Johanssen's followers while wearing a wedding dress makes him wonder about the events that transpired in the Prolethean's ranch, but Helena is uncooperative. Detective Bell follows Felix's advice and lures Helena with food. The strategy worked and Helena becomes forthcoming about the information she holds. She speaks of her childhood at a convent in Ukraine where she at an early age committed murderous acts. She also speaks of Swan Man, information she came to know from Maggie Chen's locker.
The Proletheans learn of Gracie Johanssen's guilt at Helena's escape causing her mother to punish her severely by sewing her mouth shut and imprisoning her. Henrik Johanssen takes pity on his daughter, and gives her a chance for reconciliation if she decides to tell them the events that led to Helena's escape. Regrettably, Gracie refuses to agree to her parents' demands causing them to leave her imprisoned. Mark Rollins takes pity on Gracie and apologizes for his inability to help her out of her situation. Unlike her parents, Mark does not think less of her for what she did, and he expresses his love for her with a soft kiss on the cheek giving Gracie delight in spite of her unfortunate situation. He, however, recommends that she confess her transgression. Gracie accepts Mark's advice and confesses of the attempted murder of Helena, an individual she believed to be an animal. Her penance is to bring Helena back to the ranch and failure to do so will result in her carrying Helena's child.
Paul arrives with a few corrupt police officers at Felix's apartment, while he is in a compromising position with his date, Colin. He pulls out the gun Daniel used to shoot a police officer and forces Felix to hold it thereby getting the poor man's fingerprints all over the gun. Sarah returns to Felix's apartment only to find it surrounded by police cars. She receives a call from Paul through Felix's cellphone extorting her agreement to Rachel's demand with a threat of a murder charge on Felix should she reject it. Sarah reaches out to Detective Bell conveying the extortion and the legitimate threat of charging Felix for the murder of Officer Tom Bowman. In the few minutes that he was on the phone, Helena managed to free herself from the handcuffs with the sardine can opener. Sarah arrives too late for Helena had escaped and had left Art handcuffed to a column. Helena did leave them coordinates through a paper fortuneteller helping Sarah and Art find Maggie Chen's storage locker and allowing them to find a current picture of Swan Man, the adoptive father of Rachel Duncan thought to be deceased. Sarah believes she can use this information to trade for Felix, who waits in terrifying anticipation of his possible incarceration. The discovery of Helena's missing sniper rifle from Maggie Chen's locker and a beheaded Barbie doll of Rachel Duncan sidetracks their rescue of Felix. Helena stations herself at an abandoned building across Rachel's apartment and watches her seduce Paul. Paul does everything Rachel commands and they have sexual intercourse on a chair, while Helena watches them waiting, biding her time before pulling the trigger. Sarah and Art find her motorcycle in front of an abandoned building and easily find Helena in position for the kill. Sarah dissuades her from taking down Rachel due to the hold they have over Felix, but Helena tries to convince Sarah of her good intentions by having her witness Paul's infidelity. Sarah could not care less about Paul, but Helena is adamant in killing both Paul and Rachel, causing Sarah to stand in the line of fire to prevent her twin from pulling the trigger. Sarah appeals to Helena giving her the feeling of importance given her need for Helena's help in searching for Swan Man, but Helena senses that Sarah only wants to use her. Sarah, in tears, appeals to Helena's sisterly love, and successfully manages to dissuade her from killing Rachel and Paul. With the murder of Rachel Duncan averted and Dr. Leekie's willingness to work with them, the clones agree to share some information with the Dyad director. Sarah meets him at a bar and shows him a current picture of Professor Ethan Duncan therefore annulling the belief of his death from the lab fire and suggesting that knowledge of the original genome is not all lost. Sarah is willing to share his whereabouts, but only after all charges against Felix are dropped. Dr. Leekie offers to counterman Rachel's orders that would cause her to drop the charges against Felix and to allow Cosima's treatment. Sarah is unaware that Cosima is suffering from the same illness that afflicted Katja Obinger, and her ignorance of it seems to have given Dr. Leekie advantage he might be able to use in the future. Nonetheless, Sarah feels that she has the advantage and she threatens Dr. Leekie of death at the hands of Helena should he send an envoy to follow her in her search for Professor Duncan. Paul arrives soon after Sarah leaves to speak to Dr. Leekie of Rachel's concern given her knowledge of his meeting with Sarah. Dr. Leekie explains that the information Sarah will uncover could hurt them all, and instructs Paul to come to him first instead of Rachel. Sarah and Helena begin their search of Swan Man and immediately make their way to Cold River.

Governed as It Were by Chance – Orphan Black Episode Summary 2.4
Governed as It Were by Chance Episode Summary: Cal Morrison was driving the truck that hit the car Daniel Rosen forced Sarah Manning to drive. The incident was no accident for Cal had intentionally hit the car in an attempt to rescue Sarah from her kidnapper. Cal declares calling the cops to report the events that transpired in his farm that led to the death of his friend, Police Officer Tom Bowman. Sarah refuses to involve the police and panics when she sees a police car approaching them. She readies the gun Daniel Rosen had used to murder Officer Bowman, and is relieved when the police car zips past them. Cal is in disbelief after observing Sarah's reaction and planned action had the police confronted them. Nonetheless, he helps Sarah hide the wrecked car that holds Daniel.Continue reading...
Mired in Sarah's troubles, Cal demands to know the truth, but the mother of his child refuses to divulge it to him. He brings her to a deserted farm where he hid Kira, and reunites mother and daughter. He shows them the camper he had prepared for their escape, and Sarah goes with him without protest. Cal continues to extract information from Sarah and receives one that vaguely revealed the antagonists. Shortly after the revelation, Sarah receives a text message from Rachel Duncan on Daniel's phone asking for an update. She replies to Rachel with news of returning to the institute with Sarah Manning. She later contacts Cosima Niehaus to update her of her troubles, and shares with her the photo of Project LEDA. Cosima relates the name with the Greek mythology where Zeus turns himself into a swan in order to seduce the mortal queen, Leda. Their encounter bore fruit twins, the immortal demigod Pollux, the son of Zeus, and the mortal Castor, the son of her husband, King Tyndareus of Sparta. Cosima figures that the choice of the name sounds military and the presence of a soldier in the picture adds validation to her assumption. Sarah begins to believe that Mrs. S is the key to unlocking the mystery surrounding Project LEDA, and persuades Cal of her return home despite their fugitive status. She speaks to Kira of leaving her to Cal while she searches for Mrs. S. Cal, at last, manages to extract a bit of information about the people after Sarah. He has come to learn that she is on the run from Dyad.
Benjamin Kertland enters his car only to find Siobhan in the backseat waiting for him. The man's concern for her seems genuine especially since he has no knowledge of her hand at the demise of the Birdwatchers. Siobhan, however, already knew that Benjamin is innocent of the betrayal done to her. She has come to him to ask for new papers that would allow her entry to London for she is in search of someone. Benjamin, however, correctly guesses the person she wants to contact, and informs her that Carlton is in town. Siobhan arrives at a bar, finds Carlton, and rekindles the passion they have for each other. Later, she learns that the man had come after hearing of Brenda's betrayal. Mrs. S wants information from Carlton, but all he can provide is Kassov, the ferryman. Mrs. S tells him of her knowledge of the true nature of the orphan he had asked her to put in the black in the hope that Carlton would divulge more information, but the man swears to know nothing else.
Detective Art Bell continues his surveillance of the Proletheans unaware of their cognizance of his lurking. Henrik Johanssen assures his wife, Bonnie, of their safety, since the woman has become on edge after the arrival of Helena. Helena wakes without a recollection of what had been done to her other than remembering being surrounded by people. Gracie later arrives with a fresh replacement of linen and pillow, and attacks Helena in her sleep. The vicious clone struggles and protests, but Gracie continues to suffocate her with the pillow. Soon, Helena's resistance dies down and she lays motionless on her bed. Gracie makes her way to the door triumphant at eradicating the clone only to learn that it was all an act. Helena attacks her from behind and makes her escape. She stumbles into a lab and begins to remember bits and pieces of what had transpired in it. She remembers lying on a table where an instrument is inserted in her sexual organ. The memory of her violation fills her with rage, but she escapes instead of attacking her violators. She comes across Det. Bell, who remains at the periphery of the ranch, startling the detective who encounters her for the first time. News of her escape ring after Bonnie finds her daughter lying unconscious on the floor. Prolethean men with their shotguns hasten to catch the escaped clone, but Det. Bell stalls them and forces the men to leave their shotguns.
Alison Hendrix wakes and finds herself retching in an unfamiliar bathroom with one arm in a sling. She confronts the woman who delivered her luggage for unlawfully detaining her at the Dyad Institute only to learn that she is in rehab. The arrival of Felix Dawkins relieves her, believing that he has come to take her home. Alison is surprised to learn that rehab requires consent from the patient, and that her stay at the New Path Wellness Center was her idea. Alison becomes aware that her memory lapse is the consequence of her heavy inebriation. Felix talks her into the benefits of staying in rehab, and she agrees to participate in the program. She returns to her room and finds the last person she wants to see, her husband, Donnie. She is upset with him for putting her in rehab, and becomes even more upset after learning that Donnie had enlisted the services of a lawyer who had advised that he take full custody of the children should Alison prematurely leave the program.
Sarah Manning sneaks inside the house of Mrs. S only to find Felix already there; she gets an update regarding her fellow clones. Together they scour through Mrs. S' documents hoping to find information about her old network. Felix comes across a picture of Carlton Redding, the man who brought Sarah to Mrs. S. The man spent fifteen years in prison for smuggling humans when he, in reality, was helping them to go in hiding. Sarah comes across an old newspaper clipping in Mrs. S' files that reported the death of six scientists in a lab explosion. The scientists were working on a project spearheaded by Professors Susan and Ethan Duncan, the adoptive parents of Rachel Duncan. Sarah recognized the pictures of the professors as those on the Project LEDA photograph she received from her surrogate mother, Amelia. The discovery reveals that Mrs. S knew of their identities the entire time. Sarah receives a text message from Rachel informing Daniel of the arrival of her flight in the morning. She decides to visit the woman's apartment at the Cameron Arms before returning to Cal and Kira. Fee volunteers to go with Sarah, but she asks him to bring the news clippings they uncovered to Cosima instead. They leave the house of Mrs. S unaware that someone else has been hiding in there and listening in to their conversation. Sarah arrives at the Cameron Arms and calls the concierge on the phone with instructions of preparing the suite to her requirements in order to determine the location and allow her entry to Rachel's suite. Sarah sneaks inside Rachel's urbane suite at Cameron Arms and soon receives a phone call from Felix. Cosima is with him and she updates her with information she unearthed about the deceased professors. She learned that they are British geneticists with a molecular biology degree from Cambridge receiving acclaim for the paper they wrote on recombinant DNA and several others until the year 1976 when they disappeared given their highly confidential work on Project LEDA. Their names only resurfaced after the fatal lab explosion. Cosima confirms that they were the adoptive parents of Rachel. Moreover, she learns that it was the professors who had asked Amelia to carry her for them. In other words, they were supposed to be Sarah's adoptive parents. She adds that Rachel was raised self-aware of her nature. The knowledge of being the only self-aware clone must have given her a profound sense of narcissism. She supposes that Rachel was raised without any emotional attachments as part of their plan to groom her into the perfect, corporate leader of the Dyad Group, conjecture Sarah rejects after seeing the home video she has of Rachel and her affectionate adoptive parents.
Sarah surveys the apartment and finds men's clothing in Rachel's closet, and soon becomes aware of its owner after a bloody, Daniel Rosen, arrives at the apartment. Daniel calls Dr. Leekie on the phone and informs him that their secret is safe. He vows to find Sarah and extract from her what she knows. Sarah makes her way out of the apartment, but Daniel is one-step ahead of her. He confronts her with his gun aimed at her, but Sarah is aware of her value to the Dyad preventing Daniel from shooting her. Sarah makes her way to the door without restraint from Daniel when he suddenly knocks her out unconscious. Cal and Kira wait at the camper for Sarah and resigns to the fact that she will not be coming back that night. Cal appeases the child only to learn that Kira is not worried about her mother, because she believes that a guardian angel is watching over her. They are unaware that Daniel has tied her to the shower with plans of torturing her for information. Though conscious of Daniel's plan, Sarah continues to antagonize him with her actions and declaration of her knowledge of his status of monitor to Rachel Duncan and his allegiance with Dr. Leekie. Daniel remains unperturbed causing Sarah to lose courage and to resort to begging, but Daniel is now acting of his own accord spiteful for the pain she caused him. Daniel cuts through Sarah's ear causing her to scream in pain when music suddenly plays; he leaves to check what had caused it. Sarah soon hears struggling in the living room and sees Daniel choking on his own blood with a bloody Helena standing over him. Helena approaches her slowly and shushes her frightened twin sister whom she followed from Mrs. S' house. Sarah's terror comes from the existence of Helena despite the knowledge of having shot her dead. Helena, however, has not come to harm Sarah. In fact, she has come to save her and to seek her help. She informs Sarah of her marriage and her belief that the Proletheans had taken something inside of her. Helena is right for Henrik Johanssen shows his wife and Mark Rollins the beginning of the mitotic cell division of Helena's fertilized egg.

Meanwhile, Sarah Manning and Felix Dawkins find a way to procure food for Kira.

Sarah finds an empty cabin in the woods and breaks inside that they may stay there for a while. Unfortunately, a police officer has found the truck they abandoned on the road near the woods. Although the plates have been removed, the police officer found the VIN to identify its owner. Later that night, the owner of the cabin enters his house only to find intruders. He prepares to attack Felix when Sarah calls the cabin owner by his name. Cal, the owner of the cabin is the man from whom Sarah stole ten grand and a car, and he is livid at the sight of her. He orders them to leave, but reconsiders when Kira appears and shrewdly identifies him as her father. The question shocked everyone for no one knew the truth but Sarah. Cal is indeed Kira's father, and he hesitantly offers them a place to stay for the night. He remains distrustful of Sarah.
Sarah apologizes to her daughter for her dishonesty and her decision to leave her to Mrs. S, while she struggles to find a better life for her and Kira. She has come to realize that Kira does need to learn the identity of her father. Cal is an engineer that designed the micro-optics for the mini drone pollinators for areas where bee populations have crashed. He was a partner at a company that manufactured the pollinators until his partners forced him out after they sold the technology to the military, a decision he vehemently opposed for the technology is to going to be used to kill people. Felix sees Cal as a moralist with money, which made him a perfect mark for Sarah. Fee is livid with Sarah for her deception after realizing that his best friend had intended to bring them to the cabin of Kira's father despite the pretense of finding a stranger's empty cabin. Felix finds himself the third wheel, one that does not belong with the reunited family. He decides to leave and to help the other friend in need, Alison Hendrix.
Sarah and Kira stay with Cal at his cabin where Sarah confesses to have taken all his bank codes and passwords, and was planning to steal everything he had from the sale of his company, but decided against it. She confesses that she is no longer the hustler she used to be, but admits that she continues to be in trouble probably in much more trouble than before. Tom, a friend of Cal's, the local police officer who found the abandoned truck drops by his cabin to inform him of the shoplifting and the abandoned truck, and to ask him if he had seen any strangers as of late. The owner of the convenience store identified the culprits as a new waver man and a woman with her young daughter. The sight of a candy wrapper makes Tom suspicious of Cal, but their friendship made the police officer continue to trust him. Sarah prepares to leave after the guilt of having put Cal in a position that forced him to lie to a police officer. Cal convinces her to stay, and the two rekindles the passion they have for each other. Unbeknownst to Sarah, Daniel has arrived in town, and has assumed the identity of a Detective Peter White looking for a little girl in a supposed custody case. The convenience store owner relays the incident the previous day after identifying the picture the detective showed him of Kira. Tom pulls over the supposed Det. White after learning that the man has been asking questions around town, and informs him that the police would already have the people he is looking for in custody if they are still in town. Det. White informs the police officer of his intention to leave town, but goes to Cal's cabin instead. He finds Kira feeding the chicken, grabs her, and points a gun at Sarah as she comes to her rescue. Daniel sees Cal and aims the gun at him, but Sarah manages to push Daniel's hand away keeping him from being shot and giving Kira time to run towards Cal. Tom arrives in his police car, but Daniel shoots him several times and kills him. Cal manages to hide and to get a shotgun from his cabin, but Daniel uses Sarah as a human shield and forces her to drive away with him. Daniel finds the picture of the two scientists from Project LEDA in Sarah's person, but the young woman refuses to tell him where he got it. He calls his superior to report having Sarah in his custody, but not Kira, and he reports the photo he found in Sarah's possession. Sarah threatens Daniel harm if he lays a hand on her daughter, but her threats have no effect on him. They, however, meet an accident as a truck hits them on the side where Daniel sits.
Detective Angela DeAngelis arrives at suspended Detective Art Bell's apartment to inform him of the disappearance of Sarah Manning's Shakira-haired look alike. The news of Det. DeAngelis pursuing the case infuriates Det. Bell that he threatens to inform her superior, but his threat is weaker than the detective's resolve to bring justice to their deceased colleague, Detective Beth Childs. She is unaware that the look alike is Helena, and that the Proletheans had taken her, but Det. Bell is fully aware. He makes his way to the ranch of the Proletheans, and begins surreptitiously taking pictures of the cult members. He sees Henrik Johanssen speaking with his daughter, Gracie, unaware of their conversation. Henrik speaks to his daughter about her aversion to Helena, and sees her dislike of the clone as the result of fear. He believes that Gracie is having doubts about her faith, but the young woman disagrees of her father's assessment of her disapproval. Henrik insists that Helena does have a soul, and that she is going to be part of their family. The following day, Helena wakes to find herself in a white wedding dress surrounded by Proletheans in wedding attire. Henrik speaks to his congregation about God's love toward Helena despite her being created by men who created things in the name of science instead of God. Henrik's wife binds her husband and Helena in matrimony, and Henrik prays to God to reclaim Helena from eternal damnation. He declares the Proletheans as God's instruments in the war for creation. The Proletheans applaud the newlyweds and Henrik carries Helena to the barn soon after.
Delphine Cormier shows a video diary from Jennifer Fitzsimmons, another clone suffering from the same illness that Cosima Niehaus has. According to Delphine, Jennifer is the first to show symptoms, six months before Katja Obinger. The young woman had recently died from the disease Cosima is trying to cure. She watches hours and hours of the video and sees Jennifer's disease eat away the vibrant, young swim coach despite treatments from the Dyad Institute. Cosima and Delphine perform an autopsy on the corpse of Jennifer Fitzsimmons. Cosima supposes that the disease might be autoimmune, and Delphine observes that the cancer cells are more pronounced and more mature on the uterine wall indicating that the cancer originated in the uterus. Moreover, it may be the cause of the deceased clone's infertility. A call from a distressed Alison interrupts the autopsy. Alison informs her that another monitor has approached her and she speculates that the institute has uncovered her knowledge of the identity of her monitor; she warns her about trusting Delphine. Cosima advises Alison to continue with the pretense of ignorance with Donnie, and wishes her luck on her play.
Alison is in need of support for her preoccupation affects her performance at the dress rehearsal, and the appearance of Det. DeAngelis pretending to be a ditsy suburban housewife adds to her anxiety. She makes her way to the theater where Angie once again pretends to bump into her, but soon learns that Angie is a police officer and not a monitor. The detective tries to extract information from Alison about the other clones, but gets nothing from Alison other than an order to stay away from her. Alison takes medication with copious amounts of alcohol in order to suppress her anxiety making her heavily intoxicated and unfocused. She tries to stay on her feet, but the alcohol has overcome her enough that she falls off the stage.

Most law students fail the Bar Exam for three major reasons:
- Repeat Bar Takers revert back to bad writing habits and poor analytical skills developed in law school
Under the pressures of the bar exam, many students revert back to bad habits. These bad habits allowed them to graduate from law school, but will be the kiss of death on the bar. Some of the bad habits include not answering the call of the question, failure to understand what the MBE question is asking you..
The MBE Testing Institute will teach you the skills to analyze the MBE, with improvement on better analysis.
- Repeat Bar Takers have poor preparation and time management skills
Many law students start their bar preparation entirely too late, leaving most in a rush mode. For the upcoming February 2015 bar, your preparation should begin earlier rather than later. You should allow yourself 5 hours per day for studying. But more importantly, studying correctly is the key. You need analyze and answer many MBE questions. Your answers must be evaluated by a private tutor.
The MBE Testing Institute puts each student on a two week schedule so that the student is evaluated frequently. In addition, the MBE Testing Institute evaluates every MBE exam the student takes, looking for areas in which the student can improve.
- Repeat Bar Takers don't really believe that they will pass
You must have a belief that you will pass. Get rid of all negative thoughts, people and things. You must truly believe that you will pass. You must say this every single day prior to the bar and you must have the confidence to succeed.
The MBE Testing Institute knows that taking the bar exam as a repeat taker can be an isolating experience. The MBE Testing Institute helps the student keep motivated and confident through interaction with the Florida bar tutor.
An MBE Tutor is important to the repeat taker. The MBE Testing Institute can help you overcome the difficulty of the MBE test and help you to a successful score.
If you need help passing the MBE, contact the MBE Testing Institute at firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.

Solar Generators
When thinking about sailing in present day, many emerging technologies are currently available for sailors who are environmentally conscious and want to go green.
One such technology is the use of solar generators for boats, instead of the usual gar or diesel generator, to meet the boat's power demands.
Many advantages come with the use of solar generators. Apart from saving you thousands of dollars in fuel… Read the rest

Permits are required for any new construction and alterations or additions to existing buildings, including structural, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and some finishing work. However, there are some exceptions to permit requirements. A more detailed list can be found here or if you still have additional questions please contact the Community Development Services Department.
Texas state law and the adopted building codes requires you to obtain permits – even on your own property – to ensure that you meet minimum building standards for your own safety and for the safety of future property owners and occupants.
The property owner, registered architect, licensed engineer, or registered contractor is responsible for obtaining all required permits. Permits for Mechanical (HVAC), Electrical, and Plumbing work require the applicant be a state licensed contractor for the specific trade.
To get a permit, you must complete a permit application. Permit applications are available here or may be obtained from the Planning and Development Services Department.
When an actual permit is issued to you, work can begin. If work began prior to the issuance of the permit, a penalty will be issued to the owner or contractor. The permit must be available on the job site and available to the inspector. If you've submitted plans and specifications, the Community Development Services Department will return one set of plans stamped "Approved" to you. These approved plans, along with the permit, must be available on the job site and available to the inspector.
The Community Development Services Department can assist you in determining what permits may or may not be needed for your proposed project.
No. Processing of permits more often than not need some clarification about the scope of work, contractors involved, and/or possible inspections that may be required. By coming into the office, our staff can better assist you in the permit process and possibly answer any questions so that the permit may be issued over-the-counter.
Fee schedules and valuation tables are available to help you determine permit fees in the adopted Schedule of Development Fees.
Your permit expires if work isn't started within 180 days from the date of issue. Once you have begun work, your permit expires if work is suspended or abandoned for 180 days or more. Formal scheduled inspections through the Planning and Development Services Department shall be sufficient to show progress with the project and shall automatically extend the expiration date.
If you can't work within a 180-day period and don't wish to abandon the project, you may submit a written request to extend your permit for up to and additional 90 days.
Texas state law and the adopted building codes requires plumbing permits for water heaters because of fire, electric shock, and explosion hazards.
While an architect or engineer may not be required for the design of your construction plans, architectural type plans will be required. Plans must be scaled and legible and depending on the project could require greater detail than an owner or contractor could provide. Refer to the specific permit application for the submittal requirements.
For single-family residential dwellings or accessory buildings, an architect or engineer is usually not required unless the design or methods used in the construction, alteration, or repair of the structure do not meet the minimum prescriptive standards provided within the adopted building codes.
For commercial/multi-family construction, alteration, or repair, an architect or engineer may be required if the design or methods used in the construction, alteration, or repair of the structure do not meet the minimum prescriptive standards provided within the adopted building codes or if the scope of work meets certain criteria. Refer to the architect or engineer for flowcharts detailing the specific criteria when an architect or engineer will be required.
Refer to the specific permit application for the submittal requirements.
You may be required to submit some or all of the following:
Refer to the specific permit application for the submittal requirements.
No. All plans must be approved before permits are issued. However, with special permission from the Community Development Services Department, temporary releases or partial permits may be issued for extenuating circumstances.
Contact the Community Development Services Department.

The objective of this protocol is to provide a detailed description for the construction and use of a behavioral apparatus, the zBox, for high-throughput behavioral measurements in larval zebrafish (Danio rerio). The zBox is used to measure behavior in multiple individuals simultaneously. Individual fish are housed in wells of multi-well plates and receive acoustic/vibration stimuli with simultaneous recording of behavior. Automated analysis of behavioral movies is performed with MATLAB scripts. This protocol was adapted from two of our previously published papers (Levitz et al., 2013; Pantoja et al., 2016). The zBox provides an easy to setup flexible platform for behavioral experiments in zebrafish larvae.
Keywords: Zebrafish, Behavior, Individuality, Neuromodulation, High-throughput, Startle, Larvae
Behavioral differences between individuals in a population are ubiquitous and likely play a role in adaptation to varying selective pressures during evolution. However, variation in behavior among individuals is often ignored when the quantitation of the behavior of groups is presented as means and associated dispersions. In this protocol, we describe an approach to characterize individuality in the habituation of the acoustic startle behavior at the population level in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae. Our approach and set-up can be easily adapted to studies of individuality in other zebrafish larval behaviors.
Materials and Reagents
Data analysis
This work supported by the National Institutes of Health Nanomedicine Development Center for the Optical Control of Biological Function (PN2EY018241) and the Human Frontier Science Program (RGP0013/2010).
The zBox was initially developed by Dr. David Schoppik in Dr. Alex Schier's laboratory. The work and experimental approach described here have been adapted from previous research published in Nature Neuroscience (Levitz et al., 2013) and Neuron (Pantoja et al., 2016). Further information about uses for the zBox are reported in a study that investigated the role of neuropeptides in the partition of arousal behaviors in zebrafish (Woods et al., 2014). In addition, work by Zhou et al. can be used as a complementary set of methods for the utilization of this apparatus (Zhou et al., 2014).
Please login to post your questions/comments. Your questions will be directed to the authors of the protocol. The authors will be requested to answer your questions at their earliest convenience. Once your questions are answered, you will be informed using the email address that you register with bio-protocol.
You are highly recommended to post your data including images for the troubleshooting.

Automotive Oil ChangesExpert technicians agree that the oil change is the single most important maintenance service your vehicle can receive.
When does my vehicles oil need changed?Check Maintenance Schedule Here
What does an Oil Change include?
Transmission and Differential FluidsIn addition to the oil change, transmission and differential fluids must be changed to assure proper operation. On four-wheel drive vehicles, the transfer case also requires regular fluid maintenance. Neglecting transmission and differential fluid service could result in extensive repairs, or the replacement of some of your vehicles most expensive components.
For your vehicle, refer to the manufacturers maintenance recommendation.

This summer I've had a few Knitterly Adventures. I was going to put them all in today's post, but…hey! I've got 28 more days to go! I'm gonna drag this puppy out as far as it'll go. LOLOL.
One of the things I did this summer was take a trip to WEBS. Oh. My. God. WEBS. This was the entrance to
heaven… nirvana…the store…
And unlike last time, it wasn't 107 degrees with a non-knitter and two dogs waiting for me in the car. I had all the time in the world, as I was with a crocheter (mom) and another knitter. We spent way too much there, but oh was it worth it. The Madelinetosh alone. *swoon* And the Noro! On sale! BAGS of Noro!
If you've never been to the wonder that is WEBS, here are pictures of the inside. The place is so big, I had to take two pictures. And that doesn't show the back room. And by "room" I mean "warehouse-like cavernous space full of yarn."
Here's the left side…
…and the right side…
Mom and I also went to an Alpaca farm. The people at Marlee Farm Alpacas were wonderful! Very friendly and informative, and best of all we got to walk among the alpacas! And even feed them! That's mom's hand, by the way. I talked her into going with me, and she had just as much fun as I did.
She had no idea how cute they were up close until we went.
I mean, seriously…How cute are they? And they were all very friendly and sweet and willing to let us pet them. They might have been looking for food, but I choose to believe they just liked us. LOL.
Those faces! I just can't get over them. Soooo cute.
Okay. Tomorrow should be Vogue Knitting Live! Franklin Habit! Weird Knitted Items!

Race the Ras Charity Cycle
Two Tir Chonaill GAP CC members, John Boyle and Micheal Brennan, are taking part in a charity cycle to fund-raise for Aware and The NBCRI.
Race The Rás is fund-raising organisation set up in 2011 to specifically raise money by encouraging 'ordinary cyclists' to take the route that the professionals take for the An Post Rás every May – and to do it on the SAME DAY! The Ras (Irish for race) is a gruelling, professional cycling event which is run across 800 miles of Irish roads and mountains over 8 days. Given that the Tour de France is around 2000 miles over 20 days, this challenge is a huge one!
Taking part with these cyclists will be numerous GAA Legends from all over the country who will test themselves to the limits of endurance in an effort to raise money for charity.
Ultimately, the goal is to raise money for our 2 nominated charities – The National Breast Cancer Research Institute (NBCRI) and AWARE – this is the challenge of a lifetime with a little madness thrown in.
Any Donations greatly appreciated:
Micheal & John.

Boston, MA 02115
- BS, Brown University
About Me
- Hometown: North Pownal, Vermont
- Field of Study: Computer Science
- PhD Advisor: Amal Ahmed
Daniel Patterson is a PhD student in the Computer Science program at Northeastern University's Khoury College of Computer Sciences, advised by Professor Amal Ahmed. Daniel's research focuses on the ways that people reason about programs, particularly when they involve interactions between different programming languages. Before coming to Northeastern, Daniel earned his Bachelor of Science from Brown University.
What are your research interests?
New programming languages often make it easier to write correct, safe, and fast programs. But replacing old programs with ones written in newer languages is currently so time consuming and expensive that code written in older languages may continue to exist essentially indefinitely. I want to change that.
What's one problem you'd like to solve with your research/work?
One of the primary reasons that it is hard to rewrite existing software is that it is very difficult to replace small parts of programs with code written in new languages and be sure that what you've written is correct. This is because the language-based tools that allow programmers to reason about what they've written generally have little to nothing to say about the interactions between different languages.
What aspect of what you do is most interesting?
Programming languages are the primary tools used across computer science and industry. No matter what the particular interests of a programmer are, they will be using some language. I find it fascinating that this means that studying languages is as much about studying the ways that programmers think as it is about studying principled models of computation.
What are your research or career goals, going forward?
I want to enable programmers to more effectively reason about programs that involve multiple languages interacting.


text: It can be uncomfortable discussing your personal information even with your trusted doctor, but there needs to be more discussion on what is going on with our bodies than making jokes or feeling shameful about the state we are currently in. I'm talking about, how honest are you with your gynecologist? I know it's a very uncomfortable doctor visit for many, but it is absolutely mandatory that we know exactly what's going on, and what condition all our parts are in. With the rate that women are developing cancer of the breast, uterus, ovaries, cervix and beyond, we all need to empower ourselves and be our own advocates for health. It goes beyond juicing to stay healthy.

Why You Need a Pre-Property Purchase Pool Inspection18 Mar 2019 3:48 PMTroy and Krista Piggott
If you're buying a Gold Coast property with a pool, we know you want to ensure it's safe. You'll book the local inspector to review the safety of the pool (if the owner hasn't provided a pool safety certificate) and ensure any issues are rectified. These pool checks are completed by a licensed technician, BUT they only check the pool for safety issues.
Getting a Second Opinion for Your Pool18 Mar 2019 3:45 PMTroy and Krista Piggott
Picture this. You religiously and fastidiously get your pool water checked by your local hardware store….BUT, your pool keeps going green. So you go back, again and again and it still goes green. The recommendations are the same (in varying degrees) suggesting that chemicals, plus salt are required to manage the algae in the pool.

Getting the Sparkle Back in your Pool17 Dec 2018 11:04 AMTroy and Krista Piggott
Spending a fortune on chemicals and still not seeing results? Green or cloudy pools can mean lots of different things. It could be too much, or not enough chlorine or salt, phosphates, algae and even tiny bits of dirt and debris in the water causing the problems you're seeing.

What is KINDA?
KINDA (pronounced kind-a, as in this was 'a kinda good idea') was formed in October 2014 in response to a perceived need to address the dementia time-bomb that is ticking away in all our communities.
We are a group of like-minded people, from charity workers to shop keepers, youth workers to the retired, who were inspired by what our colleagues had achieved in Brecon and recognised that there was a need in this area to support both people living with dementia and their carers. We are an organisation without boundaries and eventually aspire to cover the upper Teme valley area from Leintwardine to Felindre. This is a bold project covering areas of Radnorshire, Herefordshire and Shropshire. At this stage, there is no formal membership. If you support what we are doing then you are a KINDA friend.
Many of our friends are also Dementia Friends who have attended one of the regular Alzheimer's Society sponsored Dementia Friends Awareness sessions that we run. However, you do not need to be a Dementia Friend to be involved in KINDA – just a KINDA nice sort of person.

I am now convinced that diversity, if seen as a powerful tool and harnessed properly to serve the business purpose, can be an asset contributing to positive business growth, motivation and customer satisfaction.
Diversity should not only have a pigmentation perspective but should also look at diversity in terms of aspects such as skills, background, experience, age, orientation and qualifications. Companies should aim for a broad spectrum with varying backgrounds lending to appropriate expertise.
Leadership, particularly at board level, is most certainly important and the driver of change.
That transformation starts at the top, there is no doubt. Creating awareness internally, making the policies turn into reality and become a living part of the business fibre, are essential for success. It is necessary for all to be sensitive to the ultimate goal of gender parity and fairness.
Getting the right people in the business is driven through the talent management strategy and led visibly by the actions and 'speak' of the executive leadership team. In turn, communication to the next business level drives understanding, shared meaning and the extension of the process through the business echelons.
The talent acquisition process must be geared to finding the right skills, attitude and competencies within the desired demographic framework. Don't forgot about people with disabilities, who need to make up quite a sizable part of the work force.
The acceptance that transformation is a long term goal – not long term so as to delay implementation – but rather to achieve a structure that will live on and is not geared solely to satisfy the next B-BBEE rating, is essential.
Coaching, guidance and motivation are all part of the essential investment in moving a business forward to the next level. The frustration, so often heard, that 'as soon as I have trained them, I lose them', must be avoided through succession management and retention, which are key to business sustainability.
My advice is to move away from money as the primary retention driver. A collegial and conducive work environment, stretch assignments, on the job training and work-life balance, remain important goals for many and should be facilitated in our pressured working environments. A key learning has been the promotion of fun in the workplace – laughter is always the best medicine!
Women in particular need special consideration and flexibility, to nurture their commitment to the business and to retain them. Flexibility in working arrangements can go a long way to deal with life cycle stages such as pregnancy and motherhood. Special needs can be satisfied by allowing work from home or flexibility in working hours, especially for new mothers and this type of consideration is appreciated by the recipient, while not detracting from business performance.
But ultimately it is the business results that count and this is where diversity can play such a significant role. A diverse business structure aligns with a diverse customer base – it is not about a scorecard at the end of the day.
It is ultimately business success and sustainability by which the investment in transformation and diversity can be measured. You will be proud if you can say that the demographics of your company align, not just to create a scorecard, but align to reflect the business as a whole and also resonate with customer needs.

I have four comments on the Canonical XML 1.1 last call draft [1]. 1) Add another example to section 3 showing handling of xml:id and xml:base for document subset, e.g.: --- 3.8 Document Subsets and XML attributes Input <!DOCTYPE doc [ <!ATTLIST e2 xml:space (default|preserve) 'preserve'> <!ATTLIST e3 id ID #IMPLIED> ]> <doc xmlns="http://www.ietf.org" xmlns:w3c="http://www.w3.org" xml:base="http://www.example.com/something/else"> <e1> <e2 xmlns="" xml:id="abc" xml:base="../bar/"> <e3 id="E3" xml:base="foo"/> </e2> </e1> </doc> Document Subset Expression (same as 3.7) <!-- Evaluate with declaration xmlns:ietf="http://www.ietf.org" --> (//. | //@* | //namespace::*) [ self::ietf:e1 or (parent::ietf:e1 and not(self::text() or self::e2)) or count(id("E3")|ancestor-or-self::node()) = count(ancestor-or- self::node()) ] Canonical Form <e1 xmlns="http://www.ietf.org" xmlns:w3c="http://www.w3.org"><e3 xmlns="" id="E3" xml:base="http://www.example.com/bar/foo" xml:space="preserve"></e3> </e1> Demonstrates: xml:id not inherited. simple inheritable XML attribute inherited (xml:space) xml:base fixup performed --- 2) Link to RFC 3986 [URI] reference from fifth paragraph and bullets in Section 2.4 [2] (minor editorial comment) 3) For clarity use same notation for X and E values, e.g. state in next to last paragraph in document subset section [2]: "In that case let Xm ... X1 be the values of the xml:base attributes on En...E1 (in order from outermost to innermost). The sequence of values is reduced to a single value by first combining Xm with Xm-1, then the result with Xm-2, and so on" instead of "In that case let X1 ...

Spurred on by the age of big data, analytics and the cloud, data is expected to grow exponentially over the coming years. In fact, by 2020, data is expected to reach an almost unimaginable 44 zettabytes, or 44 trillion gigbabytes. There's no doubt that all of this data presents huge opportunities to businesses, providing unparalleled insights into customers, optimising efficiency and revenue streams. Many enterprises have already caught onto this and are set to spend as much as $150bn this year alone on big data and analytics tools to harness the value from their data.
Just one example of why data has grown so rapidly amongst businesses is the introduction of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Until now, IoT was the focus of the consumer space, as we've connected everything from our energy meters to hair brushes. Nonetheless, recent research by Gartner suggests that businesses' use of IoT is finally starting to catch up. In fact, organisations are set to use 3.1 billion connected "things" this year, versus the 5.2 billion units used by consumers. As a result, hybrid cloud environments, and increasingly edge computing, are becoming crucial to all business functions.
For businesses, this means that high-speed connectivity is more important than ever. IoT has the potential to deliver valuable data on processes from machine management to the supply chain. Even products themselves can be fitted with sensors capable of delivering insights on consumer habits. Communicating this data, however, requires increasingly complex computational power. The real challenge will be sustaining the increasing demand on existing digital infrastructures.
The future looks set to be in 5G. Its speed and reduced end-to-end latency may enable devices to have continuous access to data and seamless connectivity. Having this in place will pave the way for the implementation of real-time analytics, enabling businesses to increase efficiencies and make smarter decisions. Aside from relaying data insights, reduced latency can literally help businesses to go to market faster, generate revenue faster, and serve customers better.
However, when it comes to connectivity, the UK is nowhere near the top of the leader board. Outdated legacy infrastructures means that London was positioned 9th in the rankings for next generation access to broadband coverage, lagging directly behind Portugal and Latvia. In the wake of Article 50 being triggered, the UK should strive to prove that it can architect next-generation digital infrastructure to attract global business.
The recently announced Spring Budget took this first step towards making the UK a leading digital economy. £216 million will go towards a new 5G tech hub as well as local level fibre broadband projects. The question is: will this be enough?
A 2016 report by the European Commission estimates that the total cost related to the radio network and transmission links of 5G deployment will be approximately €56 billion in 2020. This cost will likely be passed on to the end user and make investments unsustainable.
In the meantime, data centres are already evolving to support future connectivity needs and as they do, are coming closer to the solution organisations will need. To power the future of IoT, core and edge data centres will need to work in tandem. Core data centres offer the processing power and scalability necessary to handle an expanding 'internet of everything'. Edge devices are then able to carry out tasks with lower processing needs at the source of the data itself, ensuring the greatest efficiency.
Nonetheless, providers will need to adopt a strategy which connects the core to the edge compute without the loss of performance. Digital Realty's connected campus aims to address this by hosting the edge compute on the same campus as the core facility. The connected campus also offers direct access to a business' cloud services provider which decreases latency, making it possible for their network to perform complex computing tasks. This type of proximity is particularly important for financial exchanges that rely on low latency applications, and for delivery of content-rich applications across devices.
It is evident that there should be a split from legacy architectures to facilitate the growing amount of data being harnessed by businesses. The UK should act now if it is to be viewed as the leading digital economy which can support this. Digital investment strategies from both the public and private sector will likely ensure that it remains a global business hub in the years to come.

SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates Claims On Behalf of Investors of Tyson Foods, Inc. - TSN
2019-09-04 18:04 ET - News Release
NEW YORK, Sept. 04, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Tyson Foods, Inc. ("Tyson" or the "Company") (NYSE: TSN). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at firstname.lastname@example.com or 888-476-6529, ext. 9980.
The investigation concerns whether Tyson and certain of its officers and/or directors have engaged in securities fraud or other unlawful business practices.
[Click here for information about joining the class action]
On September 3, 2019, post-market, Tyson issued a press release entitled "Tyson Foods Experiencing Short-Term Challenges in Fiscal Fourth Quarter." Specifically, Tyson advised investors that "[t]hese challenges include margin compression related to a reversal of a gain on mark to market grain derivatives recognized in our third quarter, commodity market volatility, implementation of enhanced food safety initiatives, a beef processing plant fire, and slower than expected operational improvements in the Chicken segment." Accordingly, Tyson revised its fiscal 2019 adjusted earnings guidance downward to a range of $5.30 to $5.70 per share.
On September 4, 2019, at an investor conference, Tyson's Chief Executive Officer advised investors that the Company had slowed chicken processing after recalling millions of pounds of poultry over concerns that they contained extraneous materials, such as rubber and metal, and that the slower processing had led to higher costs that contributed significantly to the Company's revised earnings guidance. On this news, Tyson's stock price fell $7.23 per share, or 7.75%, to close at $86.06 per share on September 4, 2019.
The Pomerantz Firm, with offices in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Paris is acknowledged as one of the premier firms in the areas of corporate, securities, and antitrust class litigation. Founded by the late Abraham L. Pomerantz, known as the dean of the class action bar, the Pomerantz Firm pioneered the field of securities class actions. Today, more than 80 years later, the Pomerantz Firm continues in the tradition he established, fighting for the rights of the victims of securities fraud, breaches of fiduciary duty, and corporate misconduct. The Firm has recovered numerous multimillion-dollar damages awards on behalf of class members. See www.pomerantzlaw.com
