Are There Marvel Games Releasing in 2017?
Home » Guides » Are There Marvel Games Releasing in 2017?
Marvel looks to be getting back into the swing of things in terms of video games as they've been making deals with studios around the world to get some projects underway. However, fans would like to get their hands on those games as soon as possible.
Right now, we know of a handful of games being worked on by studios. Marvel recently announced a partnership with Square Enix that will lead to multiple video games set in the various universes. The first is Project Avengers, which is being developed by Crystal Dynamics (Rise of the Tomb Raider), and Eidos Montreal (Deus Ex). The PS4 exclusive Spider-Man (working title) is being developed by Insomniac Games. And Guardians of the Galaxy is underway at Telltale Games.
Of the titles we know of, only Guardians of the Galaxy is set to actually release in 2017, although there's no concrete date or even a more narrow window. The developer announced the title late last year during The Game Awards, and five episodes are expected before this year's over.
Things are looking up for Marvel and the games it puts out. We can't wait to see what comes of all these brand-new partnerships and projects.

Fushitsusha - 1978
Artist: Fushitsusha
Album: 1978
Label: PSF
Review date: Aug. 12, 2003
History isn't always pretty
First, in the name of full disclosure, I'll admit that I'm a Fushitsusha fanatic, to the point where I released a live album ("Gold Blood") on my label back in 1998. So when I heard that PSF would be releasing the earliest-yet recordings by the band, from 1978, I was quite excited. Unfortunately, again to be quite honest, I find the release somewhat underwhelming. It does, however, offer an interesting conundrum: to edit or not to edit?
Subtitled "Eien no ho ga saki ni te o dashita no sa" (loosely: "It was eternity that reached out first..."), the album shows the group in 1978 in trio form, as it has been for most of its existence. Founder and guitarist/vocalist Keiji Haino had then recruited Jun Hamano of Gaseneta on bass, and a fellow named Takashima on drums.
Perhaps what's most interesting and impressive here is how similar to Fushitsusha's recent sound this is. The consistency of Haino's vision from 1978 until now (the recent duo incarnation notwithstanding) is remarkable. The opening 14-minute piece here occupies nearly the same dark territory that Haino has called his own for all these years, with harrowing guitar splatters intact. His guitar work is sharper here, more jagged and less solid, with unusually spiky single notes. The bass primarily emits extended low passes, though Hamano and Takashima lock together to form a consistent rhythm more frequently than the later lineups generally have. Toward the end of this piece, the trio even nearly coheres into a traditional psych-rock form.
The second piece, 35 minutes long, spends several minutes with a minimal, plodding rhythm filled with feedback and skeletal, static-drenched guitar plucking. The occasional vocals demonstrate that Haino's vocal approach has changed even less than his guitar work. The emotive, intensely personal feel is the same, though perhaps slightly more approachable.
The nearly silent interludes, and particularly the extended bouts of feedback, aren't as endearing, and personally I found them annoying enough that I wish they'd been edited out. Perhaps Haino wanted them left in as part of the performance, which is understandable, but they represent a downside, particularly when balanced with the marvelously expressive, outlandish guitar evocations that are also present.
Seemingly free sections predominate, making me wonder if improvisation was a more integral part of the Fushitsusha repertoire at this point in time. It's always been difficult to tell with this band, though. In any case, segments of explosive guitar and vocal eruptions take the piece through peaks while areas of barren static occupy the valleys. The journey itself is no doubt an exhausting one, and it's nearly impossible to think of any other "rock" band in 1978 that could have mounted anything like this kind of assault on an audience.
As an historical document, then, this is no doubt a welcome release. As a listening experience, unfortunately, it's quite uneven. Subjected to a bit of judicious editing, it could have been superb – but would it have defeated half its purpose? To return to my earlier question: to edit or not to edit? Keeping the performance intact versus cutting out what feels like filler is an impossible question, perhaps, since either way you'll lose from one point of view. An effort to compromise could have been made by placing more track indices on the CD, thereby allowing for programming by selective listeners. But then again, Haino's not known for compromising – which, in the long run, has rewarded us all. So be it.

Whether you have a full head of hair or none at all, there are some things every man ought to know about hair loss. Male pattern baldness is quite common; however, it's more likely to occur in some men than others. Is treatment necessary? No, not unless it bothers you. Read on to learn more, including whether hair loss runs in families and steps you can take if you do decide to pursue treatment.
Everybody can recognize it. It's that familiar "horseshoe" pattern of hair, with hair still left on the back and sides, and no hair at the top and front. And most people can spot the first inklings of it: thinning at the front, in a typical "M" shape. But did you know it has a name? It's called male pattern baldness. Sometimes doctors call it "androgenic alopecia," which is a fancy way to say "hair loss caused by male hormones."
Whether you view the prospect of losing your hair as a dodged bullet, a frightening possibility, a foregone conclusion, or your genetic rite of passage into manhood, we've got some interesting tidbits, statistics, and science to help you understand a bit more about male pattern baldness.
Male pattern baldness is common. In one study of healthy 18- to 49-year-old men, 42 percent had moderate or extensive baldness. Not surprisingly, baldness was most common in the older men and less common in the younger men.
That may or may not make you feel better (if you've already lost your hair), or it might terrify you (if you haven't yet lost your hair).
Male pattern baldness is not a sign that a man is unhealthy. It is not a sign of nutritional deficiencies, nor is it the result of toxin exposure. It doesn't mean you failed to take care of your body or your hair. It doesn't mean you used the wrong shampoo. In fact, unless it bothers you cosmetically, there's no reason you need to treat male pattern baldness at all.

Norsk Riksmålsordbok er et omfattende ordbogsværk over det norske riksmål, og det eneste komplette litterære ordboksværk på norsk. Værket blev først udgivet af Riksmålsvernet mellem 1937 og 1957 i fire bind, og var hovedsageligt baseret på frivilligt arbejde fra mange af landets ledende sprogforskere. Anden udgave udkom i 1983 og var et genoptryk af førsteudgaven. Det Norske Akademi for Sprog og Litteratur overtog ansvaret for værket i 1981 og udgav sammen med Kunnskapsforlaget to supplementsbind i 1995.

Norsk Riksmålsordbok er en referenceordbog som søger at dokumentere alt norsk sprog (tale/dialekter og skrift) som ikke er specifikt nynorsk. Mange af opslagsordene er forsynet med citater fra norsk presse og norsk litteratur for at dokumentere og eksemplificere brugen af ordet. Disse citater gør, at ordbogen er meget anvendelig som citatordbog.

Jubilæumsudgaven i 2014 – Det Norske Akademis store ordbok (NAOB)

I 2002 blev Norsk Riksmålsordbok, sammen med nynorskværket Norsk Ordbok, udpeget af Stortinget som nationalt ordbogsprojekt, og der blev bevilliget penge til at en ny gennemarbejdet udgave skal udkomme ifm. jubilæet i 2014. Den nye udgave vil få titlen Det Norske Akademis store ordbok – Norsk Riksmålsordbok (NAOB).

Årsagen til navneskiftet er dels, at ordbogen nu ejes af Det Norske Akademi for Sprog og Litteratur og dels at man vil understrege at ordbogen gælder alt norsk sprog, som ikke er nynorsk. Hovedredaktør for næste udgave er Tor Guttu, og udgiver er Det Norske Akademi for Sprog og Litteratur i samarbejde med Kunnskapsforlaget.

Elektronisk udgave
Alle ordbogens seks bind er ved hjælp af optisk læsning konverteret til XML-kodet tekst og gjort tilgængelig mod betaling på Kunnskapsforlagets ordbogtjeneste Ordnett. Universiteter og mange andre offentlige institutioner abonnerer på denne tjeneste.

Blake candidly opening up about Ryan her other half – who she married in 2012 – as she talks to Glamour magazine that their friendship manage to the lay the foundations for a loving relationship and has been vital in overcoming conflict.
And while a girl's girl, she insisted that unlike previous romances she now goes to Ryan for advice and a shoulder to cry rather than her girlfriends.
She began: 'In other relationships, if something came up, I would call my girlfriends, or my sister, and say, "Hey, this is what he did – what should I do?"
'Whereas with him (Ryan Reynolds), we were friends for two years before we were ever dating. And I treat him like my girlfriend.
'I'm like, "Hey, this happened. It upset me. This is how I feel. What do I do?" And he does the same for me. He treats me like his best buddy.'
While gushing about their respect for one another, Blake gave fans of her husband's Twitter account – which has amassed over 6.5million followers – some insight into the thought process behind his hilarious tweets that tend to focus on their daughters.
The former Gossip Girl actress – who shares daughters James, two, and 10-month-old Ines with the Hollywood actor – admitted that he makes-up most of his 'scenarios' for comic value but it's what she loves about him.

The Palmer Raidsadmin@apprend.io2019-02-22T04:41:28+00:00
The Palmer Raids for APUSH
The Palmers Raids were a series of government actions against suspected radicals, anarchists, and communists commenced in 1919 by Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer. The raids rounded up more than 10,000 suspects, deported more than 600 people, but eventually fizzled when Palmer's dire prediction of a communist uprising to overthrow the U.S. government failed to materialize on May 1, 1920.
The Palmers Raids were a series of government actions against suspected radicals, anarchists, and communists commenced in 1919 by Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer.
The raids ignored the constitutional safeguards guaranteed citizens by the Constitution and jailed many people innocent of any crime or intent. The raids were fueled by a number of factors that both preceded and followed World War I as well as by Palmer's desire to be the Democratic candidate for president in 1920.
Nativist and New Immigrants- A Beginning
Prior to World War I, nativist sentiment in the United States rose as a result of the influx of "new" immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe after 1890. Many of these immigrants came from autocratic dictatorships where peaceful protest was nearly impossible. Among these immigrants were many who sought to improve life for average people by replacing capitalistic economic systems with socialism or communism. Many in the United States saw this a threat to American institutions and sought immigration restriction. Palmer was able to play on these fears of anarchy in April of 1919 when 38 bombs were discovered being mailed to prominent American citizens. In part, Palmer used the fear of anarchy associated with the influx of immigrants to commence the first "Red Scare."
Among the immigrants, during the 1890s and 1900s, were many who sought to improve life for average people by replacing capitalistic economic systems with socialism or communism. Many in the United States saw this a threat to American institutions and sought immigration restriction.
As well, during World War I the U.S. government established the Committee on Public Information (also known as the Creel Committee after its head, George Creel). CPI was a major propaganda arm of the U.S. government designed to win and sustain support for the American war effort.
As part of their effort in carrying out that charge, the Creel Committee encouraged Americans to be suspicious of aliens and people who advocated change and turn their names in to the Department of Justice. The CPI created extralegal vigilance organizations like the American Protective League, Boy Spies of America, and the Sedition Slammers, to name a few. These organizations threatened union members, broke up strikes, and encourage neighbors to spy on neighbors, creating an atmosphere of suspicion that, in all likelihood, did not end with the World War I armistice. Thus, Palmer was able to play off of these suspicions and transfer hatred of Germans to hatred of radicals during the Red Scare.
Palmer was able to play off of these suspicions and transfer hatred of Germans to hatred of radicals during the Red Scare.
And Then the Labor Unions
Coupled with this was the association of immigrants with labor unions. Following World War I, a series of violent strikes and race riots spread across the country as workers tried to stretch wages to meet the rising cost of living. The American public, convinced by industrialist propaganda that all labor unions were radical, reacted negatively to a series of highly publicized strikes in 1919, including the Seattle General Strike, the steel strike, and the Boston Police Strike.
Taking a page from the Committee on Public Information's successful strategy, propaganda from the National Association of Manufacturers warned the American public that unions and their demands were fueled by foreign and radical interests. American industrialists and the government, shaken by the Russian Revolution of 1917, sought to equate union action with the beginning of a worldwide revolution of the proletariat and turned on all advocates of social change, leading to widespread repression in the 1919-20 Red Scare.
Taking a page from the Committee on Public Information's successful strategy, propaganda from the National Association of Manufacturers warned the American public that unions and their demands were fueled by foreign and radical interests.
Mitchell Palmer himself said that Bolshevism "further embraces the various organizations in this country of men and women obsessed with discontent…" including "the most radical socialists, the misguided anarchists, the agitators who oppose the limitations of unionism, the moral perverts and the hysterical neurasthenic women who abound in communism."
And Black Americans Are Caught Up To
African-Americans were sometimes caught up in the Red Scare mentality. During the "Great Migration" hundreds of thousands of blacks move from the South to northern urban centers enticed by jobs opportunities available during the war only to find that racial discrimination followed them.
A combination of factors following the war led to bloody racial confrontations and significantly increased lynching of African-Americans. White soldiers returning from the war replaced black workers who had been actively encouraged to move north by industrialists during the war. African-American soldiers returning from the war found racial discrimination they had not been subjected to in Europe.
As a result, African-Americans, encouraged by the more militant National Association of Advancement for Colored People, agitated for change, demanding equal rights. In response, one southern Congressman warned that the "Reds" were inciting a black uprising in the South, the Ku Klux Klan gained over 1000,000 members, and more then twenty-five race riots resulted in hundreds of deaths.
And Remember, The Russians Were Revolting
Against this domestic backdrop was the overthrow of Czar Nicholas II in Russia in 1917 and the subsequent establishment of communism in the Soviet Union. In 1919 Soviet leaders organized the Third International designed to foster worldwide communist revolution. Fueled by post-war disorientation, communists made significant gains in Eastern Europe in 1919. In the United States threats of a communist takeover, though highly publicized, were feeble at best.
The American Socialist Party had divided into three faction the combined membership of which accounted for less than one-half of one-percent of the population of the United States. In April of 1919 thirty-eight bombs were sent to prominent Americans, all but one intercepted by the Post Office.
In June there were seven additional bombings carried out by what one historian described as "lunatic radicals", but not part of any overall communist plot. Nevertheless, a degree of hysteria swept the country and Americas came to see "Red" in all they were afraid of or disliked.
Whatever his motives Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, on his own authority, ordered a series of raids on suspected radicals.
Whatever his motives (many say the Palmer Raids were designed to bolster his bid for the presidency in 1920) Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, on his own authority, ordered a series of raids on suspected radicals. The raids began in November off 1919 and ultimately arrested and jailed as many as 10,000 individuals, many of whom were guilty of no crime or radical association.
Two-hundred and forty-nine were deported to Russia on the U.S. S. Buford, dubbed "the Soviet Ark", though most of those deported were neither communists or criminals. Palmer's plan was to deport many more individuals (as many as 1600) but Secretary of Labor Louis Postintervened and cancelled the orders, recognizing that the constitutional rights of those scheduled for deportation had been violated.
Palmer made dire prediction that a revolutionary outbreak of violence would was scheduled for May 1, 1920, leading cities like New York to mobilize their entire police force and Boston to mount machine guns on police cars. Public support for Palmer fizzled when those predicted plots failed to materialize, and he quickly became the subject of ridicule.
Public support for Palmer fizzled when those predicted plots failed to materialize, and he quickly became the subject of ridicule.
The failure to respect constitutional rights and civil liberties, of course, did not die with the first "Red Scare." Discriminatory immigration restriction accelerated during the 1920s with the Emergency Quota Act of 1921 and the National Origins Act of 1924. Labor unions fared poorly in improving the condition of workers and discrimination against African-Americans continued unabated as the United States returned to the "normalcy" of the 1920s. More importantly, the lessons of how mass hysteria erodes constitutional rights civil liberties seemed lost on the American people by the time of the McCarthy hearings rolled around during the "Second Red Scare" the 1950s.

Here is what you should do if your dog gets attacked in Vancouver
Have you ever seen a dog get attacked in the city?
Elana Shepert
Dog-on-dog attacks are not rare in Vancouver, B.C. In fact, many incidents happen every year, although some incidents are far less problematic than others.Photo via primeimages / Getty Images
Has your four-legged best pal ever been attacked by another dog? Or has your pooch even been the canine culprit?
Dog-on-dog attacks are not rare in Vancouver. In fact, many happen every year, although some incidents are far less problematic than others. If leashed, most doggy disputes are the stuff of snarls and posturing. And, if their owners are aware that their dog is aggressive and they are responsible, they will employ the proper tools to protect other animals from them.
But not all incidents of canine aggression are benign.
Sadly, many dogs are brutally mauled and sometimes killed by other dogs. Several of these incidents make headlines and end up in court, too.
What should you do if your pooch is the victim of an attack?
Animal Law lawyer Victoria Shroff told Vancouver Is Awesome that dog attacks are fairly common and she often gets inquiries about them. However, she can't give specific legal advice as each situation is unique.
"I'd have to have a consultation and make my own inquiries into the particular facts," she explained.
But there are some things you should try to do while you're at the scene of the incident. If possible, you should get the contact details of the owner and their dog's information, such as a tag identification if they are licensed and the inoculation history of the dog. Unfortunately, however, many dogs are not licensed.
"This information may be important for the treating vet to know if you take your pet in for an exam following an altercation," Shroff said.
You should also get the details of any witnesses and "make notes, take pictures," she added. "Stay as calm as possible, get your pet the care he or she needs. Some people go back later (after they've tended to their pet) to the place where the attack occurred, they put up posters asking for witnesses.
"I find in dog parks and in neighbourhoods, people get to know each other and know how to avoid other folks and dogs who don't play nice."
While owners/guardians of dogs or cats may be sued for damages, each case depends on many factors.
Keeping dogs safe in Vancouver
John Gray, manager of Animal Services for the City of Vancouver, told V.I.A. that all dogs must be leashed unless they are at one of the 39 designated off-leash areas across the city, "and even then the owner must remain in control their dog."
Dog owners are also encouraged to read up on responsible dog ownership tips. To make for a well-behaved dog, teach your dog basic commands such as sit, stay, come, and down. Socialize your dog with different people and settings.
If your dog is involved in an attack (injured or aggressor) and you require immediate assistance, call:
311 between 8 a.m. – 7:30 p.m.
911 between 7:30 p.m. – 8 a.m.
When calling, you need to identify if you need support on site or if you are transporting your animal to care. If at any time you feel threatened or unsafe, you should call 911.
Past incidents may also be reported by calling 311 between 7 a.m. – 11 p.m. The City's Animal Services staff investigate and enforce against dogs and owners in accordance with the Animal Control By-Law and will follow up within 72 hours.
If you are a bystander or witness a dog attack, call 311 between 7 a.m. – 11 p.m. and Animal Services staff will follow up within 72 hours.

I agree with Karina - if I were to calculate my daily calorie requirements based on your figures above (I'm somewhere between an echo and meso) I'd get fat using the lowest figure. Your calculations take no account of age and activity level inside or outside of the gym. I prefer to use a TDEE calculator to calculate my daily calorie needs (there you can add age, activity level, current body fat levels if known etc, for a far more accurate figure), and would suggest anyone looking to lose fat do the same and then come back to this article for information on macros etc.


Brewin' (with or without the apostrophe) is the pseudonym of Andrew Drage. He graduated in 1998 with a first-class degree from La Trobe University, majoring in zoology, philosophy and statistics. He has worked as a Senior Research Scientist at the Insectarium of Victoria in his native Australia, publishing on ant behaviour and sampling methodologies.
His debut novel, Evermore: An Introduction, was published to critical acclaim in 2001, and has been republished twice since. The Dark Horde, is his second fiction novel, published for the first time in 2012. Based in Melbourne, he is also a respected IT developer and analyst, and has been editor and designer for the first four books of the highly acclaimed Gamebook Adventures interactive fiction series. This role has culminated in the creation of his own work, Gamebook Adventures: Infinite Universe, released in 2012 on the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
1989, rural Victoria, Australia. Something is preying upon the township of Howqua Hills. Brian Derwent, head of the local Police Station, must simultaneously grapple with the investigation, his disintegrating personal life and unseen forces that are not of this world.
Evermore: An Introduction is the story of Brewin, a 20-something year-old, who blurs reality and fiction as he contemplates life's big question: What's it all about?
Always the joker, Brewin not only lets his reader into his mind, but somehow embeds himself in his reader's mind. He weaves the bizarre and mind-expanding worlds of Evermore together with his life, relaying conversations with friends as they actually happened, his musings on life and snippets of other stories he is writing.
Beware! This book may prove hazardous to your concept of reality!

International Tin Association: Use of Tin in Lithium-Ion Batteries Could Rise
by Fouad Egbaria on February 21, 2019
Product Developments
According to recent research by the International Tin Association, tin could see increased use in lithium-ion batteries in the next decade.

"ITA tracks global R&D, patents and markets for tin and has identified a strongly growing interest in tin in energy materials and technologies, including lithium-ion batteries," the association said in a release. "Tin has a wide range of technical properties that mean its uses extend to many areas of everyday life. For the same reason, it can adapt well to meet emerging needs for new materials that can generate, store and deliver tomorrow's energy.
Per the release, ITA has identified "nine technology opportunities for tin in lithium-ion batteries, mainly in high-capacity anode electrode materials, but also in solid-state and cathode materials."
Lithium-ion batteries are used in a wide variety of applications, from pacemakers to cellphones.
"It is concluded that if tin does gain market share, lithium-ion batteries could grow to represent a significant new tin use in the 2025-2030 timescale," the ITA says in its release.
The idea of turning to tin for use in lithium-ion batteries isn't new.
A 2012 Forbes article cites research by the Washington State University, in which they tested anodes made of tin (as opposed to graphite).
"In particular, the researchers have developed an anode made of tin, rather than the carbon used currently," a 2012 university release about the research stated. "Rechargeable lithium ion batteries are made up of two electrodes, the cathode and an anode. During charging, the lithium ions move from the cathode to the anode. The anode holds the lithium ions and stores the battery's energy. When the battery is used, the ions move from the anode to the cathode, discharging electrons and creating an electric circuit.
"The new tin anode has the potential to store almost three times the energy of graphite."
According to the United States Geological Survey, in 2017 China led the way in tin production, producing 100,000 tons, followed by Indonesia and Myanmar (50,000 tons apiece).

Tin Price Trends
As for price, LME tin rode a downtrend from April 2018 through the end of November, before gradually picking up over the next 2 1/2 months.

The LME tin price hit $18,850 as of Dec. 3, 2018, and has increased 11.9% to $21,100 as of Feb. 19. As we noted in our most recent Monthly Metals Outlook report, a nearly 51% decline in LME stocks since December has helped drive the price uptrend.
Tin Production
According to another ITA release, a Tasmanian tin mine posted record production in January.
The Renison mine, a joint venture of Metals X and Yunnan Tin Group, produced 871 tons of tin in January.
"Australian mining appears to be ramping up, with increased tin output from Renison coinciding with new production at the Granville mine," the ITA said. "Despite bush fires threatening production in January and forcing the mine to suspend operations for two days, Renison still achieved record output. This bears well for the future of the mine, which is due to report its updated resource estimate in the June quarter."

The Komondor is bred as an independent guard of livestock and holds true to its heritage. This breed of dog is an extremely independent thinker and can often times be stubborn and dominant. The Komondor is not an ideal dog for someone who may be a pushover when it comes to their pets. This breed of dog can be very domineering if its owner is not stern with it. The Komondor needs consistent socialization for its well-being. It is very reserved around strangers and tends to be hostile towards other strange dogs. However, the Komondor interacts rather well with other pets and specifically livestock. It is in its happiest state when it is watching over someone or something. While its personality can often be calm and quiet, the Komondor is absolutely fearless when a situation arises where it needs to act as a guard dog. In this sense, this breed is extremely protective of its family and may sometimes misinterpret playful tumbles with children.
The Komondor has to participate in daily exercise, whether in the form of a long walk or a short romp. This breed of dog does not like warm weather in any sense. It can easily live outdoors in temperate to cold weather. The Komondor is not a carefree dog breed. It takes a lot of time and effort to care for this type of breed. It may be difficult to keep its coat clean, as its hairs tend to collect dirt and other particles very easily. Bathing the Komondor is an extremely time consuming task and can take up to even an entire day just to get its coat fully clean.
The Komondor has a life span of ten to twelve years. There are a variety of health concerns associated with this breed of dog. Some of the major health concerns include CHD and gastric torsion. Some of the more minor health concerns seen in the Komondor breed are otitis externa and hot spots. Entropion is occasionally seen, but not nearly as often as the major and minor health concerns. It is suggested that this breed has regular hip tests to prevent from any damage.
The Komondor comes from the Russian Owtcharka, which was brought to Hungary by the Huns. This large, long-legged breed became the progenitor of the Komondor. These breeds share a similar resemblance to the Racka, the Magyar sheep that had a proud dog-like carriage and ample amounts of curly wool. Because of the similar appearance, the dogs easily mixed in with the sheep and often appeared to be one of the herd. Because the Komondor breed was so immensely valued by the Magyar shepherds, they were not permitted to interbreed with other breeds. It is assumed that the breed existed long before 1555. This breed earned its keep by guarding the flocks against vicious animals. Some say that the Komondor breed was even responsible for wiping out the wolf population in Hungary. This breed was still used as a guard dog well into the twentieth century. The first of the Komondor breed finally came to America in 1933, and then received AKC recognition in 1937.

Album Review: Fireworks – "Oh, Common Life"
Monday, April 7, 2014 at 5:09 PM (PST) by Bizarro Dustin
User's Rating:
In 2011, I took a two week real estate course to become a New York City real estate agent. That lifestyle didn't really pan out for me, but it wasn't a total loss because each day while I journeyed to and from the class, I got to listen to Fireworks' sophomore album, Gospel and its combination of infectious sunny melodies and the melancholic nostalgia of the lyrics made it the perfect soundtrack for those hot summer days. Even after the summer ended I continued to listen to Gospel over and over, making it one of my favorite albums of 2011. I'm giving this background information because I think it's important that you understand that I know exactly what I'm talking about when I say that the band's new album, Oh, Common Life is most definitely NOT Gospel: Part II.
Bear in mind that I don't mean that in a bad way. Actually, the fact that Oh, Common Life isn't Gospel: Part II is the album's greatest strength. While there are hints of the band's previous efforts here and there, Oh, Common Life is primarily a forward-facing journey. It's not an entirely perfect journey, but it's a mostly successful one.
First single and lead track "Glowing Crosses" is a fitting introduction to the new Fireworks: the music sets a dark and moody tone, in spite of the hooks and Dave Mackinder's nasally vocals. It's not unlike the sonic approach that Saves the Day took on 2006's Sound the Alarm. The 1-2 punch of "Woods" and "Play God Only Knows at My Funeral" provides some of the best sequencing on the album, highlighting the band's downer lyrics fused with a contagious melody. One of the best tracks on the album, "Run, Brother, Run", takes a heavier, almost bluesy, musical approach. Imagine if Chris Conley collaborated with the members of The Gaslight Anthem and you've got a rough idea of what it sounds like.
Progress isn't always perfect though, and Oh, Common Life has its share of missteps. "The Only Thing That Haunts This House Is Me" is a little too regressive into the band's former pop punk territory, while "The Back Window's Down" feels a little too forced into its position as the token 'mellow tune that follows two upbeat jams' track. Then there are the relatively inoffensive, but ultimately forgettable, tracks. "One More Creature Dizzy with Love" and "The Sound of Young America" aren't 'bad' songs but they can't really shake the filler-vibe that they give off.
Fireworks have put themselves in an interesting position. Although they're associated with the modern young pop punk scene they're constantly carving new niches for themselves, unlike many of their peers, and I find that really admirable. By tossing in blues riffs in favor of gang vocal breakdowns, and writing songs inspired by the 1967 Detroit Riot over singing about not being sad anymore, Fireworks have still made one of the more memorable albums in its genre. I might be unfairly biased and think it's not as good as Gospel, but Oh, Common Life is still worth the time of day for anyone who's like them in the past.

4 out of 5. Not enough fast songs on the record, but still really solid.
Edited. I forgot how some of the songs don't flow into the next as well as I'd like.

Chrono Trigger is a role-playing video game developed and published by Square (now Square Enix) for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1995. The game's story follows a group of adventurers who travel through time to prevent a global catastrophe.
Chrono Trigger features standard role-playing video game gameplay with several innovations. The player controls the protagonist and his companions in the game's two-dimensional fictional world, consisting of various forests, cities, and dungeons. Navigation occurs via an overworld map, depicting the landscape from a scaled down overhead view. Areas such as forests, cities, and similar places are depicted as more realistic scaled down maps, in which players can converse with locals to procure items and services, solve puzzles and challenges, or encounter enemies. Chrono Trigger 's gameplay deviates from that of traditional RPGs in that, rather than appearing in random encounters, many enemies are openly visible on field maps or lie in wait to ambush the party. Contact with enemies on a field map initiates a battle that occurs directly on the map rather than on a separate battle screen.
Players and enemies may use physical or magical attacks to wound targets during battle, and players may use items to heal or protect themselves. Each character and enemy has a certain number of hit points; successful attacks reduce that character's hit points, which can be restored with potions and spells. When a playable character loses all hit points, he or she faints; if all the player's characters fall in battle, the game ends and must be restored from a previously saved chapter, except in specific storyline-related battles that allow or force the player to lose. Between battles, the player can equip his/her characters with weapons, armor, helmets, and accessories that provide special effects (such as increased attack power or defense against magic), and various consumable items can be used both in and out of battles. Items and equipment can be purchased in shops or found on field maps, often in treasure chests. By exploring new areas and fighting enemies, players progress through Chrono Trigger 's story.
Chrono Trigger uses an Active Time Battle system—a staple of Square's Final Fantasy game series designed by Hiroyuki Ito for Final Fantasy IV—named 'Active Time Battle 2.0.' Each character can take action in battle once a personal timer dependent on the character's speed statistic counts to zero. Magic and special physical techniques are handled through a system called 'Techs.' Techs deplete a character's magic points (a numerical meter like hit points), and often have special areas of effect; some spells damage huddled monsters, while others can harm enemies spread in a line. Enemies often change positions during battle, creating opportunities for tactical Tech use. A unique feature of Chrono Trigger's Tech system is that numerous cooperative techniques exist. Each character receives eight personal Techs which can be used in conjunction with others' to create Double and Triple Techs for greater effect. For instance, Crono's sword-spinning Cyclone Tech can be combined with Lucca's Flame Toss to create Flame Whirl. When characters with compatible Techs have enough magic points available to perform their techniques, the game automatically displays the combo as an option.
Chrono Trigger features several other unique gameplay traits, including time travel. Players have access to seven eras of the game world's history, and past actions affect future events. Throughout history, players find new allies, complete side quests, and search for keynote villains. Time travel is accomplished via portals and pillars of light called 'time gates', as well as a time machine named Epoch. The game contains thirteen unique endings; the ending the player receives depends on when and how he or she reaches and completes the game's final battle. Chrono Trigger DS features a new ending that can be accessed from the End of Time upon completion of the final extra dungeon and optional final boss. Chrono Trigger also introduces a New Game+ option; after completing the game, the player may begin a new game with the same character levels, techniques, and equipment, excluding money, with which he or she ended the previous play through. However, certain items central to the storyline are removed and must be found again, such as the sword Masamune. Square has since employed the New Game+ concept in later titles, including Chrono Cross, Parasite Eve, Vagrant Story , Final Fantasy X-2, and Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII.

My social media were filled with think-pieces and hot takes on the tragedy in New Zealand over the weekend. This is inevitable; tragedy strikes, and people want to talk about it, to think about it, to write about it.
Unfortunately, much of the discussion I saw centered on the killer's manifesto. It seems that people wanted to delve deeply into his ideas and figure out which of those ideas are particularly dangerous. The implicit concern among these thinkers appears to be that some ideas can turn good people into killers; that we ought to hunt down these evil ideas, expose them for what they are, and…? Eradicate murder?
These folks mean well, but their thinking is sadly misguided. First of all, death and destruction has used any and every available philosophical justification. The fact that people use a given idea as a pretense to commit murder says nothing about the quality of those ideas. Murder has been committed in the name of god and anti-god, christ and antichrist, communism and capitalism, individualism and community. Every conceivable belief system has had its fair share of zealots and crazies, ready to pull the trigger at a moment's notice. Zealotry -- even murderous zealotry -- is not unique to any particular set of ideas. And since it isn't, we can't use the existence of a murderer who believed XYZ as evidence showing the bankruptcy of belief XYZ.
Secondly, though, and most importantly, we are talking about a killer, a mass murderer. We are talking about a young man who created some kind of manifesto for the world to analyze, and who then went on a media-captivating killing spree so that his manifesto would be analyzed. We're talking about a man who was callous, opportunistic, and bold; a man who was immoral, deceptive, and manipulative; a man who was shameless, arrogant, entitled, envious, and exploitative.
In other words, we are talking about a deeply disturbed individual with an atypical neurological construct. A sick man. A madman.
To be sure, understanding the pathologies of the criminally insane is a worthwhile endeavor; but rooting-out bad philosophies from the screeds of a psychopath is a fool's errand. This was a nutcase who wrote nutty things. His problem wasn't that he was a perfectly well-adjusted individual who, once having stumbled onto a bad philosophy, grew into a murderous savage. No, his problem was that his brain wasn't normal or healthy, and that he could use literally any philosophy he encountered to justify his terrible rampage.
I do understand the impulse of a philosopher, having encountered a disturbed manifesto, to poke holes in that manifesto's flaws in an effort to somehow defeat the evil he's encountered. But this is a defense mechanism, or a type of grief. This is an exercise in trying to shun the evil ex post facto. The truth is, evil will always be there, because in many cases evil is biological. That's what happened in New Zealand, tragic as it might be. The key to stopping this kind of evil in the future is in recognizing sick people and giving them therapeutic treatment before they have an opportunity to act out. Trying to prevent evil ideas from corrupting sick minds is foolish, because sick minds can corrupt even the best of ideas. That's precisely what makes them sick minds.

My outfits posts on Facebook or Instagram are usually just a quick picture with a random sentence and a reference to where I bought what - if I can remember and/or haven't cut out any labels. Sometimes I say what I specifically like or dislike about an outfit but it's not often that I go off on some sort of monologue. Well, last week was a bit different.
"I don't edit my pictures, mainly because I don't have the time and can't be bothered.
I don't like this picture. I think my legs look craggy and skinny and pale, my skin blotchy and my midriff dumpy.
And then I thought "how bloody stupid!": If I look like this on a picture then I'm bound to look like this for some of the day. I walk around all day looking like this and I can't chose the angle that people see me at.
And if I didn't say anything here, people might not even notice those flaws. Or they might see others where I didn't even perceive any.
It doesn't matter. It's fine.
And if you read this far and you know what I mean, then just let me tell you this: you are fine! You look great! We all have our angles!
And then there's one where I happen to look out the window because I heard something and that accidental one is the best out of the bunch.
>>> be less self conscious, try less hard and it'll probably work out for the better! #weallhaveangles"
Do you share outfit posts? If so, what do you do? Do you ever find chucking an entire post out because you don't like any pictures? Would love to hear from you!

Rethinking conservation through the lens of food sovereignty (Workshop report, World Conservation Congress, Oct. 2008)
IIED, CEESP
Event/workshop report
At the centre of Food Sovereignty is the right to food, including rights of access to productive resources needed for food production and provisioning. Many initiatives to conserve natural resources and biodiversity rich ecosystems in which food systems are embedded increasingly rely on or advocate market based approaches, e.g., payments for ecosystem services; land, biodiversity and water markets; and partnerships between public and private sector. Such market-based approaches can conflict with rights-based approaches, including Food Sovereignty, by inter alia, exacerbating the negative pressures that land conservation can have on livelihoods (e.g., carbon offset forests and expanded private protected areas leading to increased physical, economic, or access-related displacement); creating new market incentives that 'out compete' food production systems (e.g., agrofuels); benefitting and expanding individual and private forms of ownership and tenure that can undermine collective rights and cultures; and creating a dominant discourse and policy direction about nature's 'value' (as global services) and peoples' roles (as service providers) that does not align with peoples' own understandings and practices, and that can as a result displace local people and their systems of knowledge.

This project looked at the ecological basis of food and agriculture, the social and environmental costs of modern food systems, and the policy reversals needed to democratise food systems.
Towards food sovereignty: reclaiming autonomous food systems


After my first jar of these two-ingredient fermented onions, my meal planning shifted from "what should I make for dinner" to "what can I put these delicious onions on." Fermentation mellows pungent raw onions and adds an umami flavor that draws us in, making simple grain bowls gourmet. I expect this recipe and simple fermentation technique to cause a global onion shortage. Flavorful fermented onions are known as cancer and disease protective anti-aging memory enhancers. If you are on the fence about making cellular healing, oxidative stress blasting, dementia defensive, disease protective anti-inflammatory fermented flavor garnishes, I encourage you to lose yourself and jump in with this recipe. This is the fastest ferment and most rewarding kitchen craft there is. We have a "no man left behind" policy within the Protective Diet community. After the jumpers become full-fledged PD fermentologists, eating the future's anti-aging protection and sharing their testimonials of the addition of turn back the hands of time functional super-foods, I want you to say you experienced the same life-changing mood-enhancing results along with them. On a Protective Diet we have eliminated inflammatory disease fertilizing foods, and this year we are taking simple vegetables and boosting their bioavailability and protection at a microscopic level to promote the immune system through our gut microbiome.
Love these onions…sweet vidalia's are my favorite! So easy to make and delicious topping for so many things…sandwiches, burgers, salads, rice bowls, etc.
Enjoyed in potato salad & to top my black bean burger. Will make corn & bean salad next!
Thanks for sharing how you are enjoying them!

Reverse Power Rankings Week 6: Does Anyone Want The Atlantic Division?
After five weeks of NBA action, the Toronto Raptors are leading the Atlantic Division. That statement is much weirder than it appears on the surface. Not only because it's a Canadian team in first place, but because their record on the season is 6-10. There's still months of NBA basketball left toplay, but it seems like a very real possibility that the Atlantic Division champion will finish the season with a record under .500. I still predict that the Brooklyn Nets will come out on top, seeing as they are only a game and a half out of the lead, despite everything that has gone wrong for them this season.
Out west, it'sthe complete opposite. Only three teams in that entire conference have a record under .500, with the Timberwolves having a 9-10 record as well. It appears as though a team that gets close to 50 wins this season could end up with a lottery pick, since the west is so loaded. Meanwhile, if the playoffs started today, Atlanta would wind up with the 3 seed in the East, with a record that is only a half game better than the Timberwolves. Expect these rankings to be Eastern Conference heavy in the chase for the first pick.
Without futher ado, here are the week 6 reverse power rankings:
The Contenders:
30. Indiana Pacers (16-1)
29. Miami Heat (14-3)
28. San Antonio Spurs (14-3)
27. Portland Trailblazers (14-3)
26. Oklahoma City Thunder (12-3)
25. Los Angeles Clippers (12-6)
Should Make The Playoffs In the West:
24. Houston Rockets (13-5)
23. Denver Nuggets (10-6)
22. Dallas Mavericks (10-8)
21. Golden State Warriors (10-8)
Wished They Moved East:
20. Phoenix Suns (9-8)
19. Los Angeles Lakers (9-9)
18. New Orleans Hornets (8-8)
17. Memphis Grizzlies (8-8)
16. Minnesota Timberwolves (9-10)
Beasts* Of The East (*technically beasts, but still pretty tame):
15. Atlanta Hawks (9-9)
14. Washington Wizards (8-9)
13. Chicago Bulls (7-8)
12. Charlotte Hornets (8-10)
11. Detroit Pistons (7-10)
10. Toronto Raptors (6-10)
Scouting Kentucky Pretty Closely:
9. Orlando Magic (6-10)
8. Boston Celtics (7-12)
7. Philadelphia 76ers (6-12)
6. Brooklyn Nets (Don't own pick; belongs to Atlanta/Boston) (5-12)
#RigginForWiggins:
5. Cleveland Cavaliers (5-12)
4. New York Knicks (pick belongs to Denver) (3-13)
3. Sacramento Kings (4-11)
2. Milwaukee Bucks (3-13)
1. Utah Jazz (3-15)
