Business-critical communications such as invoices, statements, and overdue notices are an integral part of managing your revenue cycle. Studies have shown that the timely delivery of professional-looking documents decreases delinquent payments and improves cash flow.
However, as vital as these documents are, the time and costs associated with printing and delivering them can place an undue burden on companies that are lacking staff or resources.
Using your existing business process, a quality printing and mailing service will eliminate the hassle and reduces the cost of printing, folding, stuffing, and mailing your business-critical correspondence.
When you decided to start your business, it is safe to say that you did not get into it for the printing and mailing, invoicing, or other mundane aspects. Most likely, you started your company because you are passionate about what you are selling – be it a product or a service.
Partnering with a reputable printing and mailing service allows you and your team to focus on producing what you love while leaving the necessary evils of printing and mailing to the experts. When you champion a proper invoicing schedule you not only get paid faster, you generate precise and professional communication for your customers. This results in longer lasting relationships that are profitable and rewarding.
Are you handling your invoicing in-house? How long does it take? It is a certainty that it is taking you far longer than it would with a printing and mailing service.
Consider the fact that you are having to create a template, upload your data, print it, fold the invoice, stuff it in an envelope, add a return envelope, seal it, add postage, and then drive it to the post office. That is a heck of a process that eats up a lot of time that you'd most likely prefer to spend elsewhere. Your employees do it? How many customers do you have that require this process? What is the total cost spent to keep up this work? If you're the one doing it, how valuable is your time? If you haven't considered the answers to these questions, you're already behind your competitors.
Time is a commodity, for sure. There is a reason "time is money" is a part of the business vernacular. When you outsource this important process, you can rest assured that it will get done at a speed that is a fraction of what you would have to invest.
Most print and mail services follow a simple set-up procedure. Documents can be generated on your desktop can be uploaded in just minutes. Then, they can be produced, processed, and delivered to the post office the next business day.
As a business owner, you are now free to lead your team, tend to your customers, and drive revenue.
Outsourcing your invoicing to a printing and mailing service will save you money, it's just a matter of how much. Small to mid-size businesses can expect savings of 10-20%, while large businesses can see much more.
How is this possible? First, it is the efficiency of the process. When you consider the elements listed above, what takes an ordinary business owner hours, takes a print and mail service minutes. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and machinery, a print and mail service is the Ferrari to your bicycle.
Where you receive the most bang for your buck, is in the savings of maintenance and supplies. If you spend $100 on a decent desktop printer, it will not be able to handle the demand that a successful company requires. This means that you will be replacing it multiple times throughout the year. If you do decide to go with one of these consumer printers, next you must consider the cost of ink. You will easily spend $20 or more for plain black in and even more should you decide to present your invoicing in color. How many pages do you think you can print on one cartridge of ink? Believe it or not, the general consensus is 220 pages. That is a pricey process.
Next, consider the cost of supplies outside of ink. Paper, envelopes, return envelopes, windowed envelopes, and postage. When you outsource your invoicing needs, you get volume discounts provided to the printing and mailing service that you just do not qualify for.
Lastly, how much time is spent providing invoices to your customers and how much does that translate into dollars? Even if you pay your employees minimum wage, you are still likely to pay more in labor alone than you are for the entire invoicing process when outsourced to a printing and mailing service.
Yet another benefit to outsourcing your invoicing process to a printing and mailing service is the reliability factor. When you are inundated with your day-to-day operations – particularly if you are having "one of those days" – it is all too easy to mistakenly move a decimal over a place, send an invoice to the wrong address, or forget to mail out an invoice all together!
The beauty of utilizing a printing and mailing service is that you can schedule daily, weekly, or monthly uploads via the internet, input data in a template, and the printing and mailing service takes care of the rest. This way, you and your employees, do not have to worry about correcting any mistakes or sifting through months of data to find out exactly why your customers are not receiving invoices and why you are not receiving valuable income.
Besides the convenience of a simple upload and the peace of mind knowing that a quality printing and mailing service will properly handle your valuable correspondence, there is an additional level of reliability in the terms of security. Your data will be respected and kept safe, as will the information of your valuable clients.
Outsourcing your invoicing to an outside vendor is obviously a trust issue. You can rest easier knowing that these companies would not be in business if they did not respect your privacy and the privacy of your customers. It is far more profitable for a printing and mailing service to retain clients that actually utilize the printing and mailing aspect of their business than it is to sell information for pennies on the dollar.
The simple process of uploading your info any time of day and anywhere in the world is also quite flexible. You are not bound by particular templates or by what can be printed. Anything can be printed, and you are only bound by your budget, imagination, and/or the constraints of your business.
Even though just about anything can be uploaded, printed, and mailed, the primary focus of any business is accounts receivable. This cannot be properly maintained without the appropriate accounts payable process.
This is why so many business owners trust this process to a professional printing and mailing service. Security, simplicity, and flexibility reign supreme when it comes to uploading, printing, mailing, and then getting paid.
For nearly twenty years, the team at Towne Mailer has been dedicated to offering the best professional printing and mailing services to clients across the country.
When it comes to getting you paid, we are here for you. We believe in a simple, reliable process that is customer-centric and focuses on speed and efficiency to get you paid faster and on a consistent basis.

Utilizing the power of technology is essential for any business trying to gain the lion's share of their market. While using technology can be beneficial, there are a variety of dangers lurking around in cyber-space.
Working with IT support professionals is one of the best ways to find out more about your backup options. For the most part, most businesses use a mix of local and cloud-based backups to keep their data safe and accessible.
The following are some of the things you need to know about cloud-based and local backups.
While most business owners have heard the term local backup thrown around, many of them really don't know what this type of backup entails. In essence, a local backup requires you to manually hook an external hard drive or other external devices to your computers to backup the data. Before cloud-based backups were invented, local backups were widely used by businesses all over the country.
Most businesses choose to lock up the external hard drives and USB flash drives used for this purpose in a safe. Not only does this keep them safe from prying eyes, but it can also reduce the chance of internal employee theft as well.
The biggest advantage of local storage is the control it provides a business owner. Instead of worrying about whether or not a third-party is adequately backing up and protecting your data, you can do this job on your own.
Some business owners prefer local storage due to the increased security it provides. Once a flash drive or external hard drive is removed from your network, cyber-criminals won't be able to access it.
While there are a number of benefits that come with local backups, there are a number of problems as well. One of the biggest problems businesses face with this type of backup is finding the space needed to house all of the information they need to store.
Most business owners fail to realize just how expensive external storage can be. If your business has to house large volumes of data, you will have to spend a lot of money to facilitate this storage.
One of the most recent developments in the data storage industry is cloud-based backups. The cloud allows you to store all of your data without having to break the bank. Being able to store all of your data off-site comes with a number of advantages. However, you will have to spend some time finding the right cloud storage provider to work with.
If you are like most business owners, you have a pretty full schedule. Trying to add the responsibility of manually backing up data to your plate can lead to mistakes being made. This is why using a cloud-based backup is so beneficial. With this type of backup in place, the data on your network will automatically be backed up.
Another benefit that comes with a cloud-based backup is the fact that it makes information accessible. Any device connected to your network can access the data on the cloud with the click of a button.
The only real disadvantage that comes with using a cloud backup is data security. If the cloud backup supplier you have chosen does not have proper security measures in place, it can lead to big problems. This is why you have to take your time to research each of the providers on the market before making a decision.
In order to gain the benefits of local storage and cloud backups while minimizing the downside, more and more companies are using a combination of both. This gives you the security you need with the accessibility you want. If you need help determining what data backup solution is right for you, contact us now.

Before I was down in Houston photographing Kelsey & Matt's beautiful wedding, a month or so before I left, I was wondering what could've possibly come over me. How on earth could I go all the way to Texas and not make a stop at the critically acclaimed Magnolia Market? So, I adjusted my travel plans, booked an airbnb in Waco, and decided to spend 36 hours exploring. So, here's a not-so-brief synopsis of my trip and recommendations if you ever find yourself in Waco!
First things first, I did not do a ton of research prior to making this trip (an oddity for me). So, beyond knowing where the market was, where I was staying, etc. I was a total newbie. I booked an airbnb that just happened to be a small bungalow behind one of the first homes that was featured on the show, Fixer Upper. That was a blast! I highly recommend an airbnb if you're planning a trip. It was very affordable and allowed me to have more of a "real" Waco experience.
When I pulled into Waco around lunch time, I headed straight for the Silos. I had read in the latest Magnolia Journal about a food truck called, The Cheddar Box, and decided to grab lunch there. So, I wandered into the magical land that is Magnolia Market at the Silos. I grabbed lunch (a bacon and gouda grilled cheese with a craft soda) and sat outside in the sun watching kids play on the big lawn. What a surreal moment! It's such a treat to visit places you've only ever dreamed of or seen photos of before.
After lunch, I decided to head into the market. I went on a Monday and the place was hopping! There are so many goodies packed into the market (almost everything is for sale - even things I thought could only be for display). It was a little overwhelming, but every employee I talked to was so nice. I can't stress this enough. That was one of the biggest things that stood out to me during my time there.
Also, funny side note, as I was walking around with my camera taking photos, I would hear people saying over my shoulder "oh, she has a nice camera, maybe she could take our photo." And just like that I wound up taking probably 10-15 group photos while I was there! Cracked me up!
Of course, I had to go to the bakery! My tops favorites were the Silo Cookie, the Pumpkin Cupcake (seasonal), and the Cinnamon Roll (all recommended to me by a sweet girl from Waco whose photo I took with her mom from out of town - ha!).
There are lines for almost everything if you go Friday-Monday, I hear. I went back Tuesday and it was a lot slower. But, upside of standing in the line, I met a lady from Australia who was visiting her son in the states. It was her first time in the U.S. and she wanted to see Magnolia!
After a couple more hours of browsing (and eating), I decided to hit the road and see the Magnolia House Bed and Breakfast (about 30 minutes away from the Silos). Once again, while I was sitting outside the house, a couple ladies drove up behind me and I took their photos as well!
I wanted a movie night in at my airbnb. So, I picked up some Torchy's Tacos (Texas TexMex gospel) and headed back to a peaceful evening.
Tuesday morning I made my way to Harp Design Co. and walked around their shop. I made friends with the girls working there (shout out to my girl, Lydia) and they gave me a list of boutiques, coffee shops, eateries, etc. She also gave me a brief history of Waco - more on that later. I picked up some of Clint's famous candle sticks that Joanna has used in a couple of the shows (no, couldn't figure out a way to fit a large dining room table into my suitcase) as a gift and headed out.
I visited Fox & Gray, Spice Village, Wildland Supply Co., and Heritage Creamery. Would highly recommend all of them! I grabbed lunch again at the silos, at Milo + Co (owned by the husband of one of the girls who works at Harp - according to them, and from my observations, Waco is a pretty interconnected city ;)) and picked up some other gifts to bring home.
One of the most interesting things about Waco is that it's one the poorest cities in Texas. Driving around the underdeveloped parts of town, I could totally see that. From the locals I spoke with, a tornado came through Waco in 1953 and flattened the downtown (everything but the Alico building shown prominently in Fixer Upper b-roll). Waco was supposed to be one of the biggest cities in Texas, but after the tornado, the capital wasn't there to rebuild what was destroyed. Waco also is known for the stand-off between the Branch Davidians and the FBI. It was fascinating to walk around a town that is literally in the throws of gentrification. Chip and Joanna Gaines are drastically changing the culture of the community in Waco. When I was there, 12 city blocks were under construction (and Waco is not a huge town)! I found this to be the most interesting part of the trip.
It is so fascinating how a couple and their friends pursuing their dreams, improving the quality of housing, turning old grain Silos into a market, etc. has so drastically changed the culture of a town!
So, there you go, a brief synopsis of my 36 hours in Waco!

Q: How to work with tfs files from code? I have a desktop application to modify some xml files that are under source control. The program should be able to get the files, modify them and make a checkin. I already know how to do all that with tf; however, I don't know how to run the developer command prompt for visual studio using code. Also, the program will be installed in computers that doesn't have visual studio; therefore, they won't have the tf command anywhere. Taking into account all that, what would be the best way to run the following commands?
mkdir C:\Temp\PROGRAM
cd C:\Temp\PROGRAM && tf workspace /new /noprompt PROGRAM /collection:"http://myserver:8080/tfs/mycollection"
cd C:\Temp\PROGRAM && tf workfold /map $/my/server/route/to/map C:\Temp\PROGRAM
cd C:\Temp\PROGRAM && tf get

I know that there are some libraries to work with tfvc, but I haven't used them and don't seem as clear as running the commands. Any solution that manage to do the same as the commands above will be welcomed.

*

*Create workspace

*Map a folder from the server to a local folder

*Download (checkout) all files in that folder (doesn't need to be recursive)

If possible to include in the solution:

*Make checkin of files changed

EDIT
The code that I finally used is this

static void Load(string local, string server, Uri urlCollection)
{
    Directory.CreateDirectory(local);
    Workspace workspace = GetWorkspace(urlCollection, "MyWorkspaceName");
    workspace.Map(server, local);
    workspace.Get();
}
static Workspace GetWorkspace(Uri urlCollection, string name)
{
    VersionControlServer vcs = new TfsTeamProjectCollection(urlCollection)
        .GetService<VersionControlServer>();
    try
    { return vcs.GetWorkspace(name, vcs.AuthorizedUser))}
    catch(Exception)
    { return vcs.CreateWorkspace(name, vcs.AuthorizedUser)); }
}

A: According to your description, you want to  pull down files from TFS server and then check in changed files programmatically.
You could use TFS client API to achieve this.  Suggest you go through  Buck Hodges's blog which shows how to create a workspace, pend changes, check in those changes.
Please refer Team Foundation Version Control client API example for TFS 2010 and newer
As for how to get files from TFS, there are also multiple samples in web portal,   suggest you use the VersionControlServer.GetItem Method
Examples of usage:
// Get the latest Item for local path "C:\projects\myfiles.cs"
Item item1 = versionControlServer.GetItem("C:\projects\myfiles.cs");

// Get ItemId = 12345 for changesetId = 54321
Item item2 = versionControlServer.GetItem(12345,54321);

// Get the latest Item for server path "$/ProjectName/myfile.cs"
Item item1 = versionControlServer.GetItem("$/ProjectName/myfile.cs", VersionSpec.Latest);

You could also select a history version of source code to pull down, for the entire code, please refer below tutorials:  Team Foundation Server API: Programmatically Downloading Files From
   Source Control
Another way is using powershell script to handle this, please take a look here: Download files from TFS server with PowerShell

A: You can install on the computers the Team Explorer Everywhere, it gives you the ability to use TFS command line (the "tf" commands) without Visual Studio.

Title: Microstructure characterisation through ultra-small-angle neutron scattering
Authors: Christine Rehm; Liliana De Campo; Christopher J. Garvey

Abstract: Modern materials science and engineering rely increasingly on detailed knowledge of the microstructure and interactions in soft and hard materials. Contemporary research areas comprise, e.g., biology and the life sciences, porosity, particle sizes as well as complex fluids. At the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering (ACNS) at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) we apply small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) as well as ultra-small-angle neutron scattering (USANS) for probing structures and interfaces of bulk samples of such substances on length scales ranging between approximately 1 nm and 10 μm. Both techniques, SANS and USANS, provide information on bulk properties with minimal sample preparation, and can be used to analyse the internal three-dimensional structure of materials in a non-destructive manner. This paper will focus on the capabilities of the USANS instrument at ANSTO.
Keywords: neutrons; small-angle neutron scattering; USANS; ultra-small-angle neutron scattering; microstructures.

Shellos (Japanese: カラナクシ Karanakushi) is a Water-type Basic Pokémon card. It is part of the Secret Wonders expansion.
Discard a Energy attached to Shellos West Sea and remove all damage counters from Shellos West Sea.
Its colors and shapes differ from region to region. In the Sinnoh region, two types are confirmed.
This card was included in the Secret Wonders expansion, first released in the Japanese Shining Darkness expansion. A Cosmos Holofoil DP-P Promotional version was available in Japan as part of the Trade Please DP event held at participating store chains from November 4, 2007 for as long as stocks lasted. Visitors could trade any 1 Pokémon card (including International cards and Japanese cards with a classic reverse) with attendants for 1 of 5 promotional cards at random. Trainer cards and Energy cards were specifically excluded from the trade. A special variant of this card was available at the Pokémon exhibit at San Diego Comic Con between July 23-26, 2008. The card features the event logo. A gold foil stamped "Staff" version was also given to those overseeing the Pokémon exhibit.
The "West Sea" part of Shellos's name is a sub-categorization in order that this card can only evolve into its respective Gastrodon form.
Mud Spatter's Japanese name is that of Mud-Slap, a move in the Pokémon games that Shellos can learn. Recover is also a move in the Pokémon games that Shellos can learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Diamond.

I respect law as a concept, and so approve of obeying the laws -- even for silly laws that I don't actually respect.
For laws of the ``eternal, divine, unchangeable'' nature, such as the Ten Commandments, I think it is the intention of the law that matters.
For secular laws, bylaws and regulations, I'm happy to obey them in letter only, while quite possibly achieving whatever they're meant to prevent. After all, if the legislations doesn't stop people doing what the legislators want to stop them doing, the legislators can always re-write the legislations to say what they meant. Sometimes, this would make them look very silly. For example, I don't pirate software or music; but I very rarely buy them, either, and so do very little to support the companies concerned!

This casual shirt has the look of chambray with a softer feel and permanent UV protection woven right in. A modern twist on a clean, classic look.
58% Tencel® Sun, 42% Organic Cotton. 146 gm / 4.3 oz.
I like this shirt. Fabric is sturdy and feels good.
Like most Nau items, the sleeves are a bit long and oversized. I had a tailor alter the sleeves to a perfect fit. After that, it became my favorite shirt.
This is a terrific 3 season shirt. The fabric feels great and wears well. A little too heavy for summer use, but perfect for non-hot weather use. Fits true to size and is highly recommended.

First and foremost, tattoo removal will take time.
This isn't like getting a tattoo. You are trying to reverse something which was supposed to be permanent. When finding a tattoo, the ink is being absorbed by tiny particles within you. They are frozen, can not move. That is how the tattoo remains in the skin. Trying to unfreeze these tiny particles will be an operation. This is where those who subscribe to these 'miracle' home tattoo creams become disappointed.
A majority of these creams promise to own tattoos gone in the manner of weeks. Not to mention, all of these creams have ingredients that are acknowledged to be harmful and in some cases, very toxic.

Situated some 1000km South of the Polar Circle it is a rare occasion to spot the Northern light - Aurora borealis.
We was up there in our mountain cottage when we could see the green light at the sky to the north.
So for once it was very fun to just step out of the cootage, setting up the camera and tripod in the dark night and try out some photos.
Maybe not the most dramatic patterns - but good enough so far South.

Incoming BoE members already setting goals
Judge Sam Davis (left) swore in the new members last week.
New members Dennis Seger and Charlie Johnson, sworn into office by Probate Judge Sam Davis on Dec. 18, along with new board Vice Chair Jeff Morton, officially begin their terms on Jan. 1, but are already setting goals for the upcoming year.
Seger said he would like to see the community more involved with the schools, wants to continue to see the graduation rate increase as well as work closely with athletics and extracurricular activities.
"I want to see the community, parents and the school board all on the same page," he said.
Johnson said his recent letter to the editor summed up his goals.
"We need to get back to core values of stewardship, integrity, honesty, accountability and excellence," Johnson said.
"A lot of people want to see something different, and I want us to restore some of the trust from the parents and community that may have been lost." he said.
According to Johnson, the economy is taking its toll on the education budget, resulting in cuts from both State and Federal funds, and survival of the local education system will come from support from the business community and parent volunteerism.
"We must cultivate community and parent relationships to ensure the quality of education is maintained," he said.
"I think the Board is in the business of education, and we must come together as one team, working as one unit with the Superintendent to keep moving in a positive direction. It's a team effort, not just individuals," Johnson said. "We need to find what's broken and fix it."
The school system is good because there are a lot of good people, students, teachers, and administrators in the system according to Johnson.
"I'm excited about the upcoming term," he said. "It appears we'll have a board that will work together on issues that call for a new look and fresh faces."
Morton, too, said he was excited about the New Year, being able to represent Bryan County as Vice Chair of the Board, and looks forward to working with the new members on the board.
"Each is active in the community, and I think they will be a good asset to the board and will do a great job representing Bryan County and their districts," Morton said.
Board Chairman Eddie Warren said he has already begun working with both Seger and Johnson, has attended training sessions with them, and thinks they will both be a good fit on the board.
"It seems like there is going to be a good cohesion with what we have, and a majority of us will be on the same page," Warren said.
Being on the same page will be important when discussing the education budget cuts by the government and means the board will be getting into the budget process earlier than usual, Warren said.
"Getting right into the budget will give us time to look at all the pieces of the puzzle to see where we need to shift," he said.
Warren also said some areas could use improvement, particularly communication – with the public, administration and the board themselves.
"We want to see more open communication with the public and within the board and school administration," Warren said. "I think sometimes there may be a communication gap between what the board's duties really are and what they are believed to be."
According to Warren, the Board plans to implement public forums where people - businesses, parents and others involved in the community - can ask the Board questions and make suggestions.
"I've spoken to the board members and we are all ready to move forward," Warren said.

Vollert went undrafted out of Weber State last April and spent time on the Cardinals' and Bengals' practice squads in 2018. Despite ending up with four tight ends on injured reserve, the 23-year-old was never signed to Cincinnati's 53-man roster.
How often does Andrew Vollert run a route when on the field for a pass play?
This data will let you see how Andrew Vollert and the other tight ends for the Bengals are being used. Some tight ends may have a lot of snaps, but they're not that useful for fantasy purposes because they're not actually running routes. This data will help you see when this is the case.
See where Andrew Vollert lined up on the field and how he performed at each spot.
Even as anonymous scouts hiss the narrative that Lamar Jackson isn't a quarterback, expect the Louisville prodigy to emerge the victor.
The Bengals signed Vollert to their practice squad Monday.


Of course, many people will disagree with complementarianism—often quite vehemently—no matter what we say or do. But the truth is offensive enough without our help. We don't need to add to its offense with our own faults and foibles. I therefore list four dangers to which we should be particularly sensitive, even while we stand firm in the face of pressure from our more aggressive critics.
Hear his answer at the link.
There are many ways God uses to get us to where he wants us to go. But there is only one message he gives to save us from sin.
The problems in our day is that we get the one and the many reversed.
But we have to distinguish between what is described and what is prescribed. Unless I'm missing something, the New Testament never prescribes (i.e. commands) that believers meet in homes as opposed to meeting in a building. It simply describes that this is what they did in the first-century.
We live in a time where we are exposed to more news headlines than at any time in human history. In the ancient days of news, anchors checked the AP newswire for stories and reported on them and people in their homes watched or people in their cars listened to radio. Today, everyone, is essentially checking the wire, all day, through social media. We also live in a time when it's has never been easier to publicly express an opinion. Before the Internet, if something happened, you might have picked up the phone to call someone or perhaps you might discuss it at work, around the water cooler. But today we are all pundits, all with commentary on what is happening right now.
Quite often this new reality is leveraged for good. If a disaster strikes, more people can be informed than in previous generations. Social networks can be good conduits for raising money for important charity, for networking and communicating with wider groups of people. In many ways, the new paradigm has flattened leadership, forcing organizations to be more transparent and less hierarchical. All this is good.
Still, followers of Christ need to think through how they process the news, particularly how we react to the headlines that come across our screens every day. Here are three tips I think that might help.

Death's Door review: Reaping revenge
Devolver Digital has teamed up with Acid Nerve for action-adventure game Death's Door.
Donovan Erskine
Acid Nerve first partnered with publisher Devolver Digital in 2015 for Titan Souls, an action-adventure game full of difficult challenges. Now Acid Nerve has once again teamed up with Devolver Digital for Death's Door, a new adventure game about the day-to-day life of a bird that reaps souls. Acid Nerve shows tremendous growth with Death's Door, as it's one of the best indie games of the year.
The reaper calls
In Death's Door, players take on the role of a crow whose day-to-day job consists of reaping the souls of the deceased. The cozy lifestyle of being an agent of death is interrupted when one of the crow's targets is stolen away. Now, players must make their way through some uncharted territory in order to reclaim what's rightfully theirs.
It's not just a single soul that's at stake, but the player themselves. As an immortal being, the reapers travel through doors to visit different dimensions. However, a reaper becomes mortal for as long as their door is open, and that door will remain open until the reaper returns with their designated soul. This works as our ticking clock in Death's Door, as the player is tasked with finding the thief who took their soul and returning back to the commission, all in one piece.
The story in Death's Door is intriguing, thanks to some excellent work in lore and world-building. I felt like my experience was just one small slice of a much bigger universe, one I'd love to learn more about in the future. I also liked that despite being a game about death and reaping souls, Death's Door manages to mix in some humor and keep things fairly light.
Death at your door
Combat is where Death's Door excels. Equipped with a sword and a bow, players will come face to face with a plethora of different enemies. There's quick melee attacks, charged attacks, and then ranged attacks using the bow. Fighting waves of enemies, I found myself constantly rolling around, stringing together attacks to lay the hurt on oncoming adversaries.
There's a solid balance to the combat too. Although the bow is perfect for taking out enemies before they even get in range, there's a finite number of charges to it. Charges are refilled over a period of time, or by dealing damage to enemies with melee attacks. Death's Door does an excellent job at forcing the player to adopt several different playstyles.
As you make your way through the game and master combat, you'll discover new ways to use your abilities. I had a huge grin on my face when I realized that using a charge attack on a projectile will send that projectile flying right back to its sender. There's a ton of small moments like this riddled throughout Death's Door.
Keeping your talons sharp
The enemies in Death's Door were an impressive aspect of the game. There's a wide variety, from zombie-like foes that try to take you out in close-range, to teleporting mages that send magical blasts from afar. This rings true with the game's bosses, who are each incredibly designed. Bosses are tough, but they each exhibit patterns that players can learn and adapt to. I often died in my first or second battle against a boss, but it rarely ever felt unfair or cheap. When I respawned, I felt better equipped to take them on.
As players make their way through different locations, they'll have the ability to heal, but not whenever they like. There's seeds scattered around the world that can be gathered. However, they must be planted at designated pots. I found this to be a great way of ratcheting up the challenge, without making the player feel completely helpless.
Death's Door features a variety of weapons and gear that players can equip to deal out more damage and enjoy some neat bonuses. As for abilities themselves, players can bring the souls that they gather during their adventure back to the Reaper Commission and exchange them for stat upgrades.
Bleak and Beautiful
As players enter different doors, they'll be transported to different locations in the universe. Each of the different environments in Death's Door feel wholly unique, giving the feeling that they actually are from different corners of the world. The fantasy art style coupled with some solid graphics also make Death's Door a gorgeous game to explore.
The music in Death's Door helps to enhance the story and combat. However, it never feels overbearing. There's plenty of instances where there's no music at all, with the only sounds coming from ambient noises in the environment as well as your weapons striking enemies.
The detailed nature of Death's Door is also present in the game's puzzles. Players will often need to find a key to a door, or a ladder to access a certain area, and so on. The developers do a superb job at giving players all of the necessary tools and clues needed to discover a solution for any given puzzle.
My only issue is that several of the puzzles require some backtracking and retracing through levels. With the intricate layout of some areas and the light pace at which the character moves, this feels tedious in some instances.
Don't mess with death
Death's Door combines excellent story and lore with challenging and rewarding combat. As an action game, there's a lot to love about the enemies faced and customization available. Story can easily take the backseat in a game like this, but the sheer concept of it all and the lore dumped on top makes the story in Death's Door equally intriguing. Acid Nerve delivers one of the more well-rounded titles I've played this year with Death's Door.
This review is based on a digital download code provided by the publisher. Death's Door is available now for PC and Xbox platforms for $19.99 USD.

The Night Creeper is the new album by Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats. Contained within are ten tracks of the type of sonic psyche-frazzling heaviness and blood-drenched pop that have made Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats one of Britains great cult bands.
Recorded at Toe Rag studios in early 2015 with engineer Liam Watson (White Stripes, Tame Impala, Electric Wizard), their fourth opus The Night Creeper, finds the quartet in full-on death-tripping, third eye-widening mode. Here songs ooze louche evil over flesh-melting riffs that creep like hot magma bubbling up through the earths crust at their own malevolent pace. This album is in no hurry to destroy you. But it will. It will.


The Yamaha YFZ50 is more user-friendly than the CRF, in that it has four wheels, electric start, and a fully automatic transmission. Any kid six and up can pretty much climb on and go, especially when the standard speed limiter is in place, capping top speed at a brisk walk. (You can remove it in about two minutes with a screwdriver once your kid gets comfortable).
Stepping to the 10-and-up 90-cc class, the Can Am DS 90X looks like a mini-motocross machine, and that's basically what it is. The 89.5-cc single-cylinder seems more high-strung than the 50-cc machines, because it takes some time blipping the throttle with the choke engaged before it clears out and is ready to rip. But when it does, it has a whole lot of power for a 90.

escapeVektor: Chapter 1
by Daan Koopman - September 29, 2011, 9:46 am PDT
What lurks inside your Wii's CPU? An awesome game, that's what!
Have you ever wondered what is going on in your Wii's CPU? No? Well, maybe you will after playing Australian developer Nnooo's newest WiiWare product escapeVektor Chapter 1: Combat Power Unleashed. In the first episode of this brand new series, we meet Vektor. He has been trapped inside your Wii for longer than he can remember and you are the first person he has successfully made contact with. He doesn't remember anything of his past or why he is trapped, but if you help him you might learn a thing or two about Vektor. However, this is not as easy as it sounds. The CPU is fully aware of your actions and tries to stop you at any cost. Luckily for you, Vektor has coding skills which can come in handy, but I am getting ahead of myself.
In escapeVektor, you use either the Wii Remote in the NES horizontal position or the Classic Controller. Towards the beginning you just grind along the lines, fill in the various cells in the level, and try to stay away from enemies as much as possible. Filling in these cells gives me weird mix of nostalgia; in particular the games Pac-Man and Qix come to mind. Later on when Vektor has done his coding job, he will be able to grant you two abilities: detonation and boost. With detonation you will, after completely bordering a cell, be able to a use shockwave that destroys all the enemies in your reach. Boost does what it says on the tin. You will be able to travel at this higher speed by simply filling in parts of the playing field. With both abilities it goes without saying that they won't be strong at the beginning of your adventure. The amount of detonation and boosts you can save up is limited and the radius of your detonation blast will be very small. Later on they will become stronger, thanks to Vektor, but in the beginning you can't be reckless and really have to keep focus on the screen.
The enemies in this first chapter come in three different varieties. First up are the patrols, which are basically the grunts. They will always follow a certain path and won't follow you around the level. That doesn't mean you don't have to be cautious. As soon as they see you, they will enter their alert mode and will go faster. Hunters are slightly more intelligent than the patrols. These enemies will scroll around the entirety of the level in search of one person, you. When they spot you, they will follow you around for a bit. There a chance a Hunter on your tail will lose you while going around a corner,so take advantage of that. Finally, we have Interceptors. These bullies are always aware of you and will try to hunt you down at full speed. While the Interceptors are strong, they also have a weakness. They can only cross a certain amount of junctions before they blow up and destroy themselves. The best strategy against them is to force the Interceptors to turn as many corners as possible.
Progressing through the game is pretty straight forward. You use a map screen to pick the world and level of your choice, again very nostalgic towards older games. Just like the games of the yesteryear, you can also finish the game through multiple means. While you can progress through normally and see almost everything, there are hidden bonus stages to find by bordering an additional amount of cells in existing levels. These will make a new exit appear and unlock a hidden challenge. After finishing this challenge, a gate will appear to a new world. The challenge can be a harder level, or a timed version of a previous stage. When your challenge is timed, you will have to make it to exit before the timer runs out or else you fail. There is also another type of level called eraser, but there aren't many of them in this chapter. All of them in fact can be found in a sixth bonus world, which only unlocks if you buy future chapters or own Pop (their previous title).
After you have finished the game, you are definitely not done by a long shot. There are over thirty badges to collect, high scores to beat, and levels to perfect. By not using detonation in a stage, you earn a star on each individual level. Even with your boost at full capacity, this isn't simple because enemies still come at you with brute force, which makes using the ability extremely tempting. For some people having no leaderboards, both local and online, might be a bummer, but it didn't really bother me too much.
At the end of the day, I was very satisfied with escapeVektor. The conclusion left me wanting more and the experience was as smooth as silk. It was addictive, fun, and strikes the perfect balance between an arcade and puzzle game. Some might become a little frustrated with the difficulty or the lack of leaderboards, but it wasn't a major annoyance. I don't know how they are going to top the first chapter's strong start, but I hope by the end of the series that escapeVektor will be the great final adventure that WiiWare deserves. For just 500 points, this is a title that certainly can't be missed.
Easy to pick up and play
Fun and addictive gameplay
Interesting set-up
No leaderboards
Too difficult for some

Wait, WHAT? Nnooo actually made a good game?!?
Jonnyboy117Jonathan Metts, Associate EditorSeptember 29, 2011
I played this a few minutes at E3 and felt it was just boring. Glad to hear that people are enjoying it, but the videos indicate that nothing has changed since then to sway me.
Flames_of_chaosLukasz Balicki, Staff AlumnusOctober 02, 2011
I think Nnooo is a decent developer and escapeVektor is a neat game. Though I have to admit Pop for WiiWare is also a fun distraction. (for me the alternate title for Pop is - Pop: Bombard Johnny Metts' Wii Message Board with updates from the game)

A reliable tipster tells us Forbes waited until after they laid off dozens of people to announce bonus paid leave. Several victims are talking to lawyers because they worked ten months of 2009 and feel entitled to any reward.

Oculus is the new standard for monitoring the sky: So you will always have the weather, meteors and fireballs in view - also ideal for remote observatories!
A CCD sensor from Sony is used in this camera, which features low dark noise and a very fast electronic shutter. The fish eye lens has a fast focal ratio of f2 and a full 180° field of view from horizon to horizon. This creates dreamlike images of the night sky!
The camera is housed under a small polycarbonate dome, so making it weatherproof. The position of the camera under the highly polished dome was chosen so that any distortions are minimized. An L-mounting plate with 1/4 inch tripod mount comes included in delivery. The plate also allows the camera to be mounted onto a building or an observatory.
The Oculus camera is supplied with power via an USB connection, as is common with other astronomy CCD cameras. It also has a 12V connector for the built.in heater which protects the camera from dew forming.
The software included lets you take a series of images which can then be combined into an AVI video to show the events of the night.
Starlight Xpress even exclusively uses grade 1 quality or better CCD chips for this camera!

Out of the House of Gold.
He is mine to keep.
The very first thing our sweet little "Christmas Rose" wanted to do, after arriving home from Mass at 2am Christmas morning, was place Baby Jesus in His manger under our Christmas tree.
This year we were blessed to be able to attend Christmas Mass During the Night at the church where my husband and I were married fifteen years ago. It was so peaceful and beautiful.
"Time is but a shadow, a dream; already God sees us in glory and takes joy in our eternal beatitude. How this thought helps my soul! I understand then why He lets us suffer…"
On Saturday evening, after a fun filled day with my family at the end of our "birthday week", we went out to dinner with friends and I was telling them that I felt like I was finally turning a corner. My energy seemed to be starting to return and the painful rash I've been fighting for the past six months, since my miscarriage last June, seems to be healing. I was so excited for our Christmas break to begin! When I got in the car and charged my phone I had urgent messages from the mother of an old friend of mine asking me to call as soon as possible... Since then it has been a flood of emotions, tears, and memories from the past. My husband and I will be attending his funeral next Saturday. So many people are experiencing so much heartache and pain. Be sure to remember them in your prayers during this most blessed time of the year!
At the theatre with friends! It's the final show and it's sold out, the seats are filling up quickly!
Our boys are the two in the blue... It was such a fun game to watch! Their team just won 12 to 6!
Another Saturday morning at The Rrrink! This little guy's hockey game is over (the goalie was having a bad day and their team lost 3 to 10!) and now we are watching the older boys play! Last game of the year... Our Christmas break officially begins this afternoon!
"Happy Birthday to youuu..." that was as far as we got before he leaned over and quickly blew out all three candles with one little blow! Hahahaha! This little boy loves candles and has been practicing all Advent - in fact, he beat his sister to some of her own candles on Monday! Of course we relit them so we could finish singing and he could blow them out once (or twice) again!
You can see a few more birthday pictures here. I hope to eventually have a chance to post the rest… and the pictures from Rose and Twinkle Toes birthdays as well!
Made with this cookie cutter and decorated the next morning.
You can find our O Antiphon plans for 2014 here.
I finally had a chance to look through the photos from the feast of St. Nicholas and post some on the blog! I had a hard time choosing which of the pics to post of our littlest one on his Daddy's shoulders, so I'm posting the other here!
Happy 5th birthday to my pretty little peacock!
I just finished watching the Nutcracker Ballet with my three girls for their first time! It's late, especially for my littlest one, but she loved the performance! Half way through Act I she leaned over and whispered "Can I have a Nutcracker Birthday?!?" (Her birthday is Monday and I was out late last night grocery shopping and buying supplies for a completely different theme- which I know she will love!) Then, during the Peacock/Arabian dance in Act II, she leaned over and said "I really wish I could have a peacock costume!" (The first gift she has asked for!) Now THAT I can do! I just happen to have a whole peacock outfit - costume, tights, wings, wand, and headband- thanks to the Gymboree clearance sales after Halloween! I can't wait to give it to her! And maybe I can come up with some "Nutcracker" fun for during the upcoming Christmas season!
Sean took all the younger children home from Hockey so I could take this quickly growing teen of ours shopping for some new clothes! It's so nice to spend some time with just him.
"Mommy, hold me!" It's freezing cold here at the rink... I think it's time to move to the fireside room for the rest of the boys game!
Darkness shall soon depart From vale and mountain She brings good news to us Light like a fountain Soon day shall rise anew Day-star is coming In skies of rosy hue Salvation's dawning Maiden so sweet and fair, Bright candles in your hair, Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia! Happy Santa Lucia Day!
Making rosaries to send to children in an orphanage in Nigeria for Christmas.
Each year our celebration of the feast of St. Nicholas looks a little different, but some things always stay the same… The children always wake up to their slippers or shoes filled with treats and receive new Christmas books! Last year we stayed home all day enjoying the snow (completely unaware that we would soon be without running water for six days due to freezing pipes!), this year the weather was much warmer and we spent most of the day enjoying activities outside of our home. Of course I have some pictures to share with you all!
We have had a very full schedule this year which doesn't leave much time for crafts. My children didn't even notice that the coins weren't decorated with images of St. Nicholas and they loved this year's Blended Maple Candy St. Nick's from Maple Grove Farms in Vermont and purchased at our local health food store!
This year's picture books included A Christmas Carol, Shooting at the Stars, The Anne of Green Gables Christmas Treasury, A Christmas Like Helen's, St. Francis Celebrates Christmas, The Christmas Rose, and Manger.
My boys had been asking me to come watch their Saturday morning Hockey games for a few weeks and I wasn't able to go due to other commitments. With St. Nicholas Day falling on Saturday as well I told them I could go this week, as long as they didn't mind skipping our usual brunch and have a simple breakfast. They didn't mind at all and were so excited! And, even though I didn't get many pictures, I ended up being able to throw together a couple Cherry Cheese Candy Cane Coffee Cakes while my husband scrambled eggs and cooked some maple sausage, before we all ran out the door after all!
It was so much fun to watch them play… and they won their game!
After the hockey game we drove out to one of our favorite little historical towns in the area, where I used to own the local phone book! We visited many of the little shops including the toy store, enjoyed the popcorn and cider that was being handed out, toured the Catholic Rectory, went on a horse-draw wagon ride, and then shared a gourmet pizza before heading home!
You can find additional pictures of the Catholic Rectory here.
