Q: Counter example of a radical extension that is not Galois/normal over $\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$? Most proofs of Galois theorem stating that "an equation is solvable in radicals if and only if its Galois group is solvable," show the left to right direction by induction on the height of the radical extension. Starting with a cyclotomic field, adjoining "enough" roots of the unity (e.g. adjoining the product of all the ) and continuing with successive simple radical extensions, which are all Galois and Abelian over the previous one (because we ensured that there were enough roots of unity to start with). The key element in proving that all these extensions are solvable over the base field is then to define a solvable extension as an extension which normal closure has solvable Galois group (equivalently such that there exist an extension which Galois group is solvable) (def (a)), this makes "being a solvable extension" transitive (it is distinguished) as proved in Lang Algebra. Doing this makes it possible to complete the proof by induction, while "being Galois and solvable" (def (b)) does not go through (since Galois extensions are not distinguished).
Many texts also state that the (radical) extensions arising in the above mentioned induction are not Galois in general. While this is indeed not the case in general (as with the traditional example $\mathbb{Q} \subset \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}) \subset \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[4]{2})$ since it's missing $i\sqrt[4]{2}$), one might wonder if this is true or not for radical extensions where the base field contains enough roots of unity.
More precisely, the question is to determine whether the following statement is true.

Let $\omega_n$ be a primitive $n^\textrm{th}$ root of the unity.
Let $x = (x_1, \ldots, x_h)$ be sequence of elements in the algebraic closure of $\mathbb{Q}$, such that $x_{i+1}^{m_{i+1}} \in \mathbb{Q}(x_1, \ldots, x_{i})$ for some minimal $m_i > 1$ for all $i < h$.
Is there a natural number $N$, such that in the radical extension series
$$
 \mathbb{Q}(\omega_{N}) = K \subset K(x_1) \subset \ldots \subset K(x_1, \ldots, x_n)
$$
each $K(x_1, \ldots, x_{i+1})/K$ is Galois ?

Definition
Let's call $N_x$ the smallest of such natural numbers if it exists, and set $N_x = \infty$ if there is no such natural number.
The above question amounts to «Is $N_x$ always finite?»
In a typical proof of Galois theorem above, since the primitive root of the unity that is chosen is typically a divisor of $d_x = \prod_i m_i$ (one can also pick the lcm afaik).

*

*If it were true that $N_x | d_x$ for all $x$ then the proof above could be carried out with def (b) instead of (a). (The answers seem to indicate this is not true though.)

*However if $N_x$ is finite for all $x$, then for each $x$ one can use def (b) by starting the radical series with $\mathbb{Q}(\omega_{N_x})$ (instead of $\mathbb{Q}(\omega_{d_x})$ as in the proof above).

I conjectured the above statement is false, i.e. that there are $x$s such that $N_x > d_x$ and even such that $N_x = \infty$.
Hence I am searching for a (minimal?) counter example, i.e. a radical extension
$$
 \mathbb{Q}(\omega_N) = K \subset K(x_1) \subset \ldots \subset K(x_1, \ldots, x_h)
$$
such that each for all $N$ such that each $K(x_1, \ldots, x_{i+1})/K(x_1, \ldots, x_i)$ is Galois, $K(x_1, \ldots, x_n)/K$ is not Galois.
(Another way to state it is to start with $K$ being an extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ containing all roots of unit.)
I think the following is a radical extensions of total degree $6$ over $\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$, where $\omega = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} + \frac{i}{2}$ is a primitive 12th root of unity and where each intermediate extension is Galois over the previous one:
$$K = \mathbb{Q}(\omega) \subset F = K\left(\sqrt[3]{2}\right) \subset K\left(\sqrt[3]{2}, \sqrt{1+ \sqrt[3]{2}}\right) = E.$$
However, I would like to claim $E$ is not Galois over $K$, even though all 12th roots of unity are in $K$.
Indeed a conjugate of $\sqrt{1+ \sqrt[3]{2}}$ over $K$ is a square root $\alpha$ of $1 + j\sqrt[3]{2}$ -- their minimal polynomial is $X^6 - 3 X^4 + 3 X^2 - 3$ -- but $\alpha$ would not be in $E = \textrm{span}_F\left(1, \sqrt{1+ \sqrt[3]{2}}\right).$
I reduced the problem to checking that $\frac{1 + j\sqrt[3]{2}}{1+ \sqrt[3]{2}}$ is not a square in $F$ (unless I made a mistake) and some famous online computer algebra system tells that if I compare it to $(x+y\sqrt[3]{2}+z\sqrt[3]{2}^2)^2$ then $z$ needs to be expressed using a square root of an element of $F$ that does not look like it's in $F$, but I am still not 100% sure this is correct...
Does someone has indications on better ways to find a counter example, check this one or prove the theorem that I believe is wrong in the first place? (i.e. that all radical extension over a field with enough roots of unity are Galois.)

EDIT 25/01/2021
I made my question more precise by showing the statement for which I am searching for a counter example.
Unless I am mistaken, the answers and their comments below show that both

*

*$x_1 ^ 2 = 3, \quad x_2 ^ 2= 1 + x_1$

*$y_1 ^ 3 = 2, \quad y_2 ^ 2= 1 + y_1$
are indeed counter examples of $N | d$ since

*

*$d_x = 4$ and $N_x = 8$

*$d_y = 6$ and $N_y > 12$.

They also show that $x$ is not a counter example that $N_x < \infty$, and I think the finiteness status of $N_y$ is unknown.

A: The polynomial $f:=(x^2-1)^3-2$ has Galois group $G \simeq S_4 \times C_2$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, so the commutator subgroup $[G,G] \simeq A_4$. Let $L$ be the splitting field (over $\mathbb{Q}$) of $f$. This contains the $12$-th roots of unity, i.e. contains your $K$. Since $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=4=[G:[G,G]]$, $L$ contains no other roots of unity and $\operatorname{Gal}(L/K)\simeq A_4$. Since $A_4$ has no normal subgroups of order $2$ the extension $E/K$ is not Galois.
Certifying that $G \simeq S_4 \times C_2$ could e.g. be done using (an exact version of a small part of) Algorithm 6.3.10 in Cohen's "A Course in Computational Algebraic Number Theory" or using more basic Galois resolvents, or...

A: I think I have a better solution: $\sqrt{1  + \sqrt{3}}$. Since the "accident" in the comment above does not happen. $\sqrt{3} -1= \frac{ (\sqrt{3}- 1)^2 }{2}  (1+ \sqrt{3})$.
Edit: it does not work, cf comment below.

A: The smallest counterexample (in terms of degree) should be to take the fixed field of a non-central involution in any realization of the dihedral group $D_4$.
EDIT: Here are some details, since the answer apparently was too cryptic: Take for example $K=\mathbb{Q}(i)$. It is known that there exists a Galois extension $M/K$ with Galois group the dihedral group $D_4$ of order $8$ (this follows for example from Shafarevich's theorem on solvable groups over number fields, but it is a much more easy special case, probably explicit polynomials can be found in the relevant databases). The fixed field $L$ of say the involution $(1 3)\in D_4\subseteq S_4$ is not Galois over $K$ (since the subgroup generated by the involution is not normal), but it is a degree four extension of $K$ decomposing into two steps of degree two, both which are therefore radical.
EDIT2: Here is how to get such an example over the maximal cyclotomic extension $\mathbb{Q}^{\rm cycl}=\mathbb{Q}^{\rm ab}$ of $\mathbb{Q}$:
By a result of Kuyk (see also Theorem 16.11.3 in the book Field Arithmetic by Fried-Jarden), Hilbert's irreducibility theorem holds over $\mathbb{Q}^{\rm ab}$, i.e. the field is Hilbertian in the sense of Lang. According to the tables in the book Inverse Galois Theory by Malle-Matzat, $f=x^4-2x^2+t$ gives a regular realization of the group $D_4$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, i.e. if $F$ is the splitting field of $f$ over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$, then $F/\mathbb{Q}(t)$ has group $D_4$ and $\mathbb{Q}$ is algebraically closed in $F$.
In particular, $f$ still has group $D_4$ over $\mathbb{Q}^{\rm ab}(t)$,
and so the Hilbertian property gives infinitely many $a\in\mathbb{Q}^{\rm ab}$ for which $f_a=x^4-2x^2+a$ has Galois group $D_4$ over $\mathbb{Q}^{\rm ab}$ (see e.g. Proposition 16.1.5 in the book by Fried-Jarden). The above construction then gives a non-Galois radical degree $4$ extension of $\mathbb{Q}^{\rm ab}$.

Q: Selenium web driver not able to locate an element I'm using Selenium webdriver to click on a textbox which is identified by this as id  objdbColumnVO[6].columnValue. While replaying , selenium is not able to locate this element on the webpage.
HTML:
<input type="text" name="objdbColumnVO[6].columnValue" onkeydown="return noenter(event);" id="objdbColumnVO[6].columnValue" class="form-control" value="" title="" aria-invalid="false">

I have tried all the below options but no luck.
//var textbox=WDS.browser.findElement(pkg.By.id("objdbColumnVO[6].columnValue"));

WDS.browser.findElement(pkg.By.id("objdbColumnVO[6].columnValue")).click();

//var EnterPolicy = WDS.browser.findElement(org.openqa.selenium.By.name("objdbColumnVO[6].columnValue"));

//EnterPolicy.click();

//WDS.browser.findElement(pkg.By.className("col-md-6 col-lg-6 col-sm-6 col-xs-5  caselog-custom-text")).click();

var element = WDS.browser.findElement(pkg.By.className("col-md-6.col-lg-6.col-sm-6.col-xs-5.caselog-custom-text"));
element.click();

A: To click on the element you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

*

*xpath:
WDS.browser.findElement(pkg.By.xpath("//input[@class='form-control' and contains(@onkeydown, 'noenter')][starts-with(@name, 'objdbColumnVO') and contains(@id, '6')]")).click();

*cssSelector:
WDS.browser.findElement(pkg.By.cssSelector("input.form-control[onkeydown*='noenter'][name^='objdbColumnVO'][id*='6']")).click();

A: Can you try this if it works
WebElement element =driver.findElement(By.name("objdbColumnVO[6].columnValue"));
((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("arguments[0].click();", element);

Even the food company Nestlé is now in "Blockchain". With this technology, Western Swiss people want to ensure the traceability of food – for consumers, businesses and suppliers.
For this purpose, Nestlé has been working on the topic of "decentralized databases" for a year and a half as part of the "IBM Food Trust" project. "Blockchain technology is designed to meet consumer demand for more transparency," said Benjamin Dubois, who heads Nestlé's blockchain projects, in an interview with AWP news agency.
Nestlé has been part of the food trust initiative of computer giant IBM for some time, Dubois said. In addition to Nestlé, global corporations such as Walmart and Unilever are also involved in the program. In concrete terms, the companies involved want to provide data for harvesting, processing, product labeling and transport on IBM's blockchain solution.
Thanks to the Blockchain, the companies hope that they will be able to view such data within a few seconds, in contrast to traditional query methods. The new process is designed to give everyone, from the producer, to the seller and the end customer, access to a wide range of information about the different products.
Nestlé has already carried out the first tests with simple products – for example baby porridge. This year, plans are to extend the project to other products, added Dubois.
Nestlé also receives support from consumer advocates. The French-Swiss consumer association FRC welcomes the initiative: "The traceability of products meets a strong consumer demand," said FRC secretary-general Sophie Michaud Gigon. Because some labels, which are not tested for two or three years, are problematic.

Vance and Hines Harley-Davidson NHRA Team Expands to Three With Addition of Chip Ellis
Veteran Pro Stock Motorcycle racer Chip Ellis will join the Vance & Hines factory Harley-Davidson team as a racer at the upcoming Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals from Indianapolis, Ind. The squad now expands to three riders with defending champion Eddie Krawiec and multi-time champion Andrew Hines.
Chip Ellis
"I haven't been on a bike since last November but Drew [Hines] called me a couple of weeks ago and asked me what I was doing. I said, 'What do you need me to do?'" Ellis said to NHRA. "I have a great relationship with the Vance & Hines guys and I'm happy to help out any way I can. I enjoyed it when I worked in their shop every day and I enjoyed racing with them last November. I guess they think I'm the right guy for the job. Either that or they just like having a redneck on the team."
2007 NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle Countdown, Peggy Llewellyn, Chip Ellis, Andrew Hines and Matt Smith
Ellis last competed in an NHRA event at the 2017 season-ending Auto Club NHRA Finals in Pomona, where he qualified No. 3, and rode a Vance & Hines Harley to a quarterfinal finish. Prior to that, he raced a V-twin entry for the late Junior Pippin.
The seven-time NHRA national event winner is also scheduled to race at a select number of events during the upcoming Countdown to the Championship. His schedule includes races in St. Louis, Dallas, Las Vegas, and Pomona.

What is the most efficient way to obtain the brightness of movie that is being played with movie player? I am trying to obtain the brightness of three full HD movies playing to three projectors on a 2.8GHz MacBook Pro. I can get 25 fps until I use the calc brightness actor with the three movies, then the frame rate drops significantly. I have tried reducing the incoming video using the scaler actor (to 10x10 pixels) or chopper (a 1x1920 crop), but the frame rate still drop. All actors are using GPU video. Anyone know of the best way to do this? Thank you.
The Calc Brightness actor is inherently inefficient because it must calculate the frames on the CPU (it's not possible to do this on the GPU). To reduce it's workload, use a Scaler actor to resize the video to a much smaller size. The scaling will be done on the GPU. Then measure the brightness of the output of the Scaler. Given that you're measuring the brightness of the entire frame, this should not be terribly inaccurate.
As Mark has mentioned, scaling before measuring is your best choice.
I have found that scaling by an even factor seems to work best... so divide the width and height by, 2, 4, 8, or 16 etc... until its small enough to allow a good framerate.
You could also, try adding a 'multi blocker' before scaling, and limiting the frames thru.
Half as many frames to process. This will help, but adds some latency.

Do you have a question that is not answered in the FAQ below? Contact us and we'll answer your question as fast as we can!
Check out our LAN Party survival guide for all of this and more.
We're pretty flexible with all ages as long as you follow our etiquette guide. If your grandma has a mean PC and deadly mouse aim, bring her along!
Under 18? All attendees under age 18 must bring a (printed) signed waiver from a parent or legal guardian. The waiver can be found along with the event information.
16 - 17 years old? Once you've got the waiver, you can enter without a guardian present.
15 years old? You can attend with a guardian appointed by your parent or legal guardian on signed the waiver.
14 or younger? You can attend with your parent or legal guardian.
Please review the etiquette guide here for information on what conduct we expect from our attendees.
Laclede's LAN events are free for spectators but slots may be limited based upon demand. Everyone entering the LAN area is required to sign a waiver, so if the spectator is under 18 they must bring a signed waiver from a parent or legal guardian. Just show up at the check-in desk and we'll take care of you.
While we are not responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen items, we do our best to keep track of everyone's equipment and make sure it doesn't leave with anyone other than its original owner. We have an equipment check process in place at our events, but whenever possible we ask that you try to watch your own stuff (or designate a friend to do so). You should always make sure you don't leave loose items lying around unattended, such as handhelds, cell phones, and wallets.
In addition to our equipment check process, we make special arrangements with venue security and have other security measures in place that cannot be disclosed (since doing so could reduce their efficacy). If you have any special security concerns please contact us.
All paid attendees are eligible for sponsor-provided door prizes via raffles. The time(s) of these raffle(s) will be listed in the event schedule. All raffled prizes are independent of any tournament prizes.
Paid attendees, approved exhibitors/streamers, and event sponsors are welcome to sleep in the venue overnight. You may bring any sleeping bag, blankets, or portable mattress you would like as long as you follow these guidelines:
Don't sleep near wires.
Don't sleep in walkways or anyplace that may impede foot traffic.
Don't sleep anywhere that blocks access to venue equipment or facilities.
If you need an electrical outlet for anything like a CPAP machine, please contact us prior to the event so that proper accommodations can be made.
Yes for food and drink, but please be careful and considerate around people's equipment (and yours!). Alcohol is strictly prohibited.
No on coolers; they are not allowed.
We've got our eye on you! Tobacco products can be used outside in designated smoking areas (this does include vaporizers, e-cigarettes, and anything else we deem fragrant). Alcohol and firearms are prohibited by the venue and this rule is strictly enforced by their security. (Gamers prefer caffeine anyway.)
Network or power issues are considered our responsibility and will be troubleshot by the staff. If you have a problem with your PC, the staff can attempt to help as time/responsibilities allow, but please be aware that we generally cannot be held responsible for the state of your machine. You do have the option to ask friends and neighbors as well!
File sharing will be given low network priority to preserve the gaming experience and is not officially supported. Laclede's LAN staff members will not attempt to troubleshoot issues with file sharing. There is no restriction on using "Sneakernet " but keep in mind that you assume all responsibility for the content you share. Please be sure to read our waiver.
The chairs provided by the venue are standard stacking chairs with a metal frame and foam cushions wrapped in fabric; similar to the one seen here . You're allowed to bring your own desk/gaming chair, but no couches please…
Technically, whatever you want! To keep things somewhat structured we provide a specific set of dedicated servers as "recommended games", schedule time in specific games for casual play, and will even start flash tournaments at unannounced/random times throughout the day (we do choose times that are least disruptive to other events and tournaments) in efforts to get a lot of people into one game at the same time. Every LAN will also host structured, competitive tournaments. The recommended games and tournaments change every event but we will always make sure they get listed with event details.
One of the great things about LAN parties is being able to play whatever you want, however you want! Just because there isn't a staff-provided server or tournament doesn't mean you can't play your favorite game with others.
We do try to gather feedback at each event on what games people are playing and incorporate that into future events, but since we can't see everything the most effective way to get your favorite game into our rotation is to ask on our Discord.
If you want to start playing Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball just fire it up and start playing! If you'd like to get others to join in you can simply walk around and drum up interest, post about it in our Discord, or ask the staff to help you promote it.
While our events are currently structured as a BYOC (Bring Your Own Computer) this doesn't mean we are purposely ignoring consoles like the Playstation and Xbox. Unfortunately, these systems are not designed for network-multitenancy or multihoming which makes it practically impossible to attach multiple consoles to our LAN and get full Internet services using our venue's Internet infrastructure. During the planning and workshop phase of every event we reevaluate these conditions and restrictions; once we are confident we can include console systems while providing a high-quality experience we plan to do so!
Each tournament has its own specific rules that will be laid out in great detail alongside the event information. Every tournament will have the rules cross-posted to tournament-specific discussions on Reddit .
We often get requests from gamers to allow them to enter more than one tournament at that are scheduled for the same time-frame. In general we don't allow multiple entries to avoid delaying tournament rounds for the sake of other tournaments.
This means that you should look at our schedule and see which tournaments are going on at the same time, because you are going to need to pick one.
That said, we do try to stagger the tournament schedule so that people who are eliminated in the first rounds from tournaments that start earlier could possibly get into the later tournaments without creating a conflict.
We're always looking for ways to improve our scheduling and provide people with as many opportunities to compete as we can, so send any suggestions you have our way!
We do our attempt to put together teams at the event but we strongly recommend that you build as much of a team as you can before coming. If a tournament is for teams of five, there's a big difference between a four person team that's looking for one person, and a single free agent looking for four. That said, even if you do show up alone we will try to find you a team as best we can.
We can't officially support every PC game (unless our staff gets a lot bigger), but that doesn't mean you can't play your favorite game at Laclede's LAN. Our staff will always do what we can to set up servers in games that support it, and help you find other people to play the games you like. It helps if you let us know before the event, but even if you don't, we will try to help you find a group! We can even set up a tournament bracket if you get enough people. Just let us know!
Absolutely! In fact, it's not uncommon for LL attendees to host ad-hoc tournaments in games like Super Smash Brothers! Because we aren't in charge of these tournaments, we don't make announcements on our website or in official emails about them. We DO, however, help you promote them during the event and will make announcements that your tournament is going on. You're also more than welcome to talk about your tournament in our Discord , Facebook , subreddit , or any of our official pages on the Web.
In the event of a technical issue, such as a power brownout or internet outage, our tournament staff will ask the players to report the outage to tournament staff. After the tournament staff is notified an attempt will be made to restart the last round and the score will be reset (if needed) to whatever it was at the beginning of that round. If this is not feasible due to the nature of the game or game server, staff and players will agree on a fair compromise and the tournament will continue. If the tournament is unable to continue due to technical issues, the tournament staff will determine the winner by another metric (such as win-loss record).
Every event is different, and prizes may change depending on what kind of sponsorship opportunities we're able to secure for that event. We're always looking to improve tournament prizes and usually have some kind of trophy for the first place winners. Check our site for the latest information.
When we started putting together Laclede's LAN, we wanted to establish ourselves as fundamentally different in terms of the way we viewed ourselves and the community. We didn't want to present ourselves as hardcore or extreme — we just liked having fun and thought the site should reflect that. At the time, every LAN website was black, army green, or gunmetal grey, so we chose a lighter color scheme with light blues and understated greys.
Laclede's Landing is a spot in downtown Saint Louis that honors the French fur trader Pierre Laclede, who started something simple that grew beyond anything he could have imagined — a trading post that turned into the biggest city in Missouri. So "Laclede's LAN" is sort of a mission statement rolled into a play on words. We have high hopes for LL, but we won't ever take it so seriously that we can't have a bit of fun.
EI.BO is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization focused on STEM education. Laclede's LAN is the name associated with our gaming community and is a 'Doing Business As' or "DBA" of EI.BO, as our computer gaming events raise funds for EI.BO. Most importantly, none of the EI.BO board, Laclede's LAN staff, or any event volunteers are paid. We are all volunteers and enjoy connecting our community to support our cause.
We have hosted public LANs under the "Laclede's LAN" banner since 2004, long before the charity was established, so this is how our gaming community is tied to the non-profit organization. The ticket price of a LAN party covers our event costs, many which are reduced due to partnerships we have with Saint Louis University and other local businesses. We have relationships with sponsors that help make our events great and keep our costs low. The remaining funds come to EI.BO, and are disbursed in the Midwest community with the goal of improving access to programming education. Distribution of funds requires board approval and we are always looking for promising opportunities for consideration.
To see how EI.BO has impacted the St. Louis area, head to ei-bo.org .
LANFest is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the state of Washington that has become a national platform for helping LAN parties grow, primarily LAN organizations with a charitable impact. LANFest is dedicated to empowering gaming communities and supporting charitable efforts by enabling unique gaming experiences. Their values align with Laclede's LAN's in that we both understand how powerfully positive LAN parties can be in the friendships and connections they create, and how they can help good people put dollars to work in their communities. Operationally, LANFest ships equipment to LAN parties that need it, and helps large sponsors connect with smaller regional LAN organizations throughout the US. LANFest provides Laclede's LAN with this type of sponsor support, as well as a registration platform and an expanded online presence. Check out lanfest.com for other LANFest chapters hosting events!
As a non-profit organization, EI.BO is always looking to raise funds that can be put toward community efforts to increase programming opportunities for the underserved in the Midwest. We're also a great group of people who love to connect with fellow gamers and tech enthusiasts. If your business would like to get connected with our community, and/or support STEM education, please reach out to us via the contact us page and we can discuss mutually beneficial opportunities. Whether you're looking to recruit tech-focused young professionals, promote your services or products to our attendees/community, or simply get involved in any capacity, we love to build valuable connections!
In the most literal sense, a LAN party is a gathering of PC or console gamers for the purpose of playing multiplayer games. In the case of PCs, a Local Area Network is set up to facilitate the data traffic, and then everyone plays PC games all day long. It's probably the most fun you can have as a PC gamer!
In our opinion, though, LAN parties have never just been about games. We go to LAN parties to hang out with people that share our interests and are just plain fun to hang out with. The Laclede's LAN staff consists almost entirely of friends who met at LAN parties, and we want to give others the chance to make new friends as well! That's why we try to offer more than just tables and cables – we really do try to give the event more of a party atmosphere, playing music and offering console games on the side to encourage our casual crowd to feel welcome and comfortable.
There's a few main categories of people at a LAN, and you could fit into any or all of them at the same time:
Casual gamers can enjoy our LAN as a PC gaming convention. We run plenty of non-tournament games and dedicated servers designed specifically to cater to the casual attendees. We make an effort to channel the casual players towards similar games with our Recommended Games List and our Flash Tournaments. We have other activities to try to facilitate casual conversation, like the drink cooler, Chill Area, and sponsor tables.
Competitive gamers will usually be focused on competing in our official tournaments. Meeting up with your team in real life and spending the day competing against other serious teams is an experience that's hard to find anywhere other than a LAN or an eSports event. For this group, we offer a controlled environment where they can compete with minimal risk of cheating or lag. Better tick rates, private matchmaking, less downtime between matches — we do everything we can to make our tournaments smooth as butter and a blast to be a part of.

Afrikan Dreamland – Unwasted Time (Dub)
From Afrikan Dreamland – Blu-Reggae
Released on Ayo, 1983, US
Last November, we wrote about a very surprising album, by Nashville's master of reggae (if not one of the only reggae musicians from Nashville), Kosmik Gypsy by Aashid Himons. This record, Himons' only solo album, blew our minds as the musician departed from Roots reggae to give his music a very curious proto-house turn (and that was in 1982…). However, this oddball should not overshadow the rest of his work, with his band Afrikan Dreamland.
The band was short-lived but quite prolific, as they released 3 albums and a bunch of singles between 1981 and 1983. The fact that they were a reggae band from Nashville is more than an anecdote as they borrowed many elements from Blues and Country music, and the result is pretty unique (check their debut album Jah Message).
That being said, the song we're talking about today is pure roots dub and does not sound like any kind of crossover between reggae, country & blues. Instead, it's an absolutely out-of-space dub which is somewhat reminiscent of some of the craziest dubby explorations released in the UK on labels like On-U Sound, around the same era (think about Prince Far-I, African Head Charge or Suns of Arqa).
In fact, it is quite safe to compare Himons to some great dub producers as Unwasted Time is a super tight demonstration of his mastering of the mix and the science of effects. Even if the sound of the Nashville musician is way more roots than any of Sherwood's productions, the mix denotes a shared will to throw the listener off the balance. Spaced-out…


If a picture is worth a thousand words imagine what a video at 25 pictures per second is worth?
I grew up inspired by my father and his movie camera. Since I was 16 I have always been involved with Videography in some shape or form. When filming a couples wedding movie I always feel privileged because I can witness & record a day that will go by in an instant. Afterwards when you watch the finished film hopefully you'll laugh, you'll cry — a video it's the closest thing to reliving your wedding day.
Long after the meal is forgotten and the last of the bills are paid, your video will be there to remind you of the love and enjoyment that you shared on that special day. From the first of your guests arriving at the ceremony right through to the First Dance, it's all there, captured in full for you to watch over and over again.

You pass an alleyway leading to Abbey Court – look up at the sign Newbery Preserves which reminds us that the Newbery Jam Factory started here in the latter part of the nineteenth century – and having passed the splendidly old-fashioned butcher's shop just beyond the alleyway, go forward to Langton House.
This is the massive building which now accommodates both Battle Memorial Hall and the HSBC Bank. It began in the sixteenth century as a two-storeyed half-timbered building, another storey being built around 1700, a new front being added in the eighteenth century, and shop-fronts appearing in the twentieth century. There is a double doorway with its use of the Ionic Order, a fine example of classical architecture in the town.

By Catherine Harvey Kate James loves working with people. In particular, her clients are generally 'creative' types who have reached a point in their lives where they need to do something differently but don't know how to do it on their own. In many ways, I wonder if this is the nature of a lot of creative people and their insatiable desire to improve themselves and strive for perfection.
I, myself, am a perfectionist and through this character trait I also know that it causes a great deal of angst and introspection to ascertain what will actually make me happy. With all people - women in particular - I can understand that there is a level of difficulty in finding the correct balance in your life. From juggling your career, your family, social life, exercise and general wellbeing there seems to exist a constant pressure of having to do it all - and be happy.
This is the area of expertise that Kate identifies with and provides her clients insight into. The notion of deciphering what you value in life may seem quite simple, however, I think when each of us actually tries to articulate this, the answers become far more complex than we first realised. It's quite easy to say that we would like to be happy but actually achieving this is another story. For example, Do you believe you would be happier if you were earning more money?
Having recently attended a Happiness Conference, Kate discussed with me that studies have indicated that financial happiness reaches its peak at around $50-60,000 per year and that even when you receive more than this there is a marginal difference in your levels of happiness. This reminded me of the stories you hear about people winning Tattslotto and that shortly after their elation of the increase in money their happiness levels return to their previous state. So, if we all know that money doesn't create happiness then the next important question remains - what does?
Kate's approach to assisting her clients is to take on a mentoring/coaching role. Her methodology is to uncover the answers that you already have. With eleven years of training behind her, I can tell you that even from the short time I was there I noticed a difference in my own desire to discover what I most valued in life and how I could actually achieve my dreams. As a creative myself, I know that I need to dream. It keeps me sane to imagine a different reality. I think the challenge in this lies with assessing where my strengths actually are and being practical about what I want to do and how I can achieve this.
What Kate offers isn't the traditional 'bricks and mortar' retail experience. It is, however, an exploration of the mind to truly ascertain what you value, what your dreams are and also creating a situation where you are accountable for taking actions to achieve these goals. Sometimes all you really need is someone to listen for you to uncover the answers. And really, if you can achieve this then surely you have found something that money can't buy.
Catherine Harvey lives and breathes design. Working at one of Melbourne's top studio's, she is rarely ever away from her computer. She loves to keep up to date with the design industry in a global and local context and follows too many blogs to count! You can follow her findings here.


Hello! I've been working on some things! I'll post some more soon! In the meantime here's a video of what I do at work!
Hey bud, just found your blog... glad to see you stuck with what you love doing. Hope all is well for you and your family, good luck in the new year!


I am honored that you found your way to St. Luke's Anglican Church and it is my prayer that your visit was spiritually nurturing.
It is not uncommon for people to have questions about what it means that we are an Anglican church, so please allow me to provide you with a glimpse into our identity.
As an Anglican church, we trace our heritage back through the Church of England. We can also be described as an Anglo-Catholic parish, which means our identity is influenced not only by the protestant reformation, but by the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic church that is the inheritor of 2000 years of history and development. We look to the apostolic fathers, the creeds, and the church councils of the first centuries for guidance into the teaching of Jesus and His apostles.
We are a liturgical church, which means we worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness through a liturgy that has roots in the first century of the church. Holy Scripture teaches that God cares about how the citizens of His Kingdom approach Him in worship, and we desire to honor Him and give Him reverence as we gather as a community for worship and edification. We are also a sacramental church, which means that we see our relationship with God as being more than just a mental and spiritual exercise. Humanity was created in the image and likeness of God as both spiritual and physical beings; as a result, our bodies and our spirits are intimately connected. Through the sacramental life of the church we are able to bring our outward, physical actions and our inward, spiritual faith into unity as we experience the grace of God in our lives.
It is my firm belief that God's primary desire for His children is that they imitate Jesus Christ. This means a commitment to loving God with our entire being and loving others without reservation or qualification. Our world is filled with hatred, bigotry, and a brash, sometimes violent, disrespect for others that is entirely contrary to the character of Christ. I cannot promise that I or my parish will always be perfect examples of Jesus' unconditional love, but I can promise that it is my desire as an individual and my desire for this parish that we constantly strive to become more like Jesus in everything that we do, say, or think.
I pray that you experience God's love and acceptance, His grace and mercy, in your own life and that you allow us to help you grow and mature in your relationship with Him.

NETHER DEPARTS EARLY ACCESS, FULL RELEASE NOW AVAILABLE ON STEAM
Fast-Paced Urban Survival Game Celebrates Official Launch with In-Game Perks
CHICAGO – June 5, 2014 – After months of community support and feedback, Nether Productions announced today that first-person survival game Nether has exited Steam Early Access and is now available as a full release for $14.99. GBP- £10.99 , EUR €13.99 To celebrate the milestone, all players logging in after June 5th will receive a potion that grants the ability to play as a Nether and golden chest keys to open rare loot boxes that contain valuable survival items. Additionally all guest keys have been replenished and players will earn one Gold coin for each key that is redeemed.
Nether's Main Features Include:
An Unforgiving City – Players must scavenge their way through post-apocalyptic Chicago while avoiding Nether, poor mutated souls that roam the city in search of human flesh. While searching for food through the city's buildings and blocks, players can gather supplies to craft makeshift weapons for protection or trade at various markets. Survivalists must always be aware of other players who may be only one moment away from death, and see killing them and looting their possessions as their only salvation.
Tribes – Players can find safety in numbers by joining a tribe, and only tribes can capture and own territory. Compete with rival tribes in territory wars for control of the city by seizing strategic landmarks to reap resources and experience; proving dominance over other tribes. Tribes change the survival experience by establishing a true social construct, with all the consequences of behavior that players would expect in the real world.
Missions - Players can complete an assortment of individual or group missions to earn money, experience and reputation. Perform vital supply runs between the markets, work with others to take down the swarms of Nether led by the vicious boss Reaper that sporadically surge to attack neighborhoods, or keep the creatures out of the Safezones by working in groups to repair the anti-Nether devices when they fail.
"Since launching early access, we've continually worked with our rabid community to drive development of all the features that make Nether a survival gaming experience unlike any other," said Chip Sineni, Creative Director at Phosphor Games. "We never knew what Nether would look like at full release and we have been constantly amazed at the player enthusiasm to help create a solid game."
Nether is a fast-paced survival game that forces you to make quick life-saving decisions in an unforgiving environment. In this post-apocalyptic urban world, death is waiting around every corner, at the top of high-rise buildings, and in the grasp of powerful teleporting creatures known as Nethers. These creatures and the other players are real challenges to overcome, requiring tactical gameplay, awareness, stealth, and cooperation. To navigate this high-tension environment, players must use skill and cunning in order to scavenge, trade, craft or loot for food, weapons, supplies, and other resources necessary to stay alive in a desolate and dangerous city. Team up with other survivors and take advantage of group play, as a tribe, to complete treacherous world objectives, or play as a lone wolf in an attempt to endure the hostile environment. In the end players must decide whether to Prey or Pray.
Nether offers a wide variety of character customization and allows anyone to play as a male or female character. There is a huge selection of cosmetic items and player taunts to assert individuality along with entire outfits to play roles like survivalist, soldier and biker - or even just play in underwear.
