Hey bud, are you going to the show in grapevine in a couple of weeks? I think I'm going on Saturday, I'm going to enter my Falcon in the custom contest.
No peeking, I'll send you some pics when its ready!
What up bro, haven't heard from you in a while! I got a cool custom on the bench, that locust you gave me is getting a makeover!
Hey bro, I hope all is well. Check in with us if you can.
I replied to your PM, haven't heard back...since you said you've been having email issues thought I'd leave a message here for you.


People with amusia said they had trouble picking up emotional signals from telephone conversations.
Some folks who are "tone-deaf" musically might be a little hard-of-hearing emotionally too. A new study of people with amusia – the inability to properly process music – revives an old Darwinian hypothesis linking music and language to a common evolutionary origin.
According to an idea put forth by naturalist Charles Darwin, before humans had either language or music, they had a "musical protolanguage" useful during courtship, fighting over territory and in expressing emotion (which later researchers considered particularly crucial for parent-infant bonding).
Previous work has shown that people with amusia don't have much trouble decoding the meaning held in elements beyond the words on a page, like rhythm, stress and intonation. But an international trio of scientists decided to focus on the more subtle changes in pitch that reveal the emotions behind a person's words.
The evidence appears to back their theory up. People with amusia are less likely to say they like or love music, and are less likely to report emotional changes from listening to music. And neuroscience research has indicated that, in both music and in speech, acoustic cues for emotion are picked up by the same areas of the brain.
For the paper published in this week's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the researchers tested two-dozen volunteers, half with and half without amusia, to see how well they could identify six different emotions in the tones of 96 spoken phrases: happy, tender, afraid, irritated, sad and no emotion.
Depending on the emotion, the participants with amusia fared up to 20% worse than their peers. The gap was wider for some emotions (happy, tender, sad) and negligible for others (fear, no emotion).
What's more, "amusic" participants were more likely to report that they had trouble figuring out people's emotional states from speaking on the phone, and more likely to say they relied on facial cues and gestures to help them figure out what a person was feeling.
The findings, the authors write, "lend support to early speculations by Darwin, elaborated upon by several contemporary theorists, that emotional communication is a fundamental link between these domains and reflects their common evolutionary origin."

Umbilical Cord 'Milking' Procedure Dangerous for Preemies: Study
TUESDAY, Nov. 19, 2019 (HealthDay News) -- Squeezing the last drops of blood from the umbilical cord has been touted to help preterm babies get more of the nutrients they need, but it may be dangerous, a new study finds.
When umbilical cord blood is forced into the baby's abdomen, the pressure can cause tiny blood vessels in the brain to rupture. This is especially dangerous for the most preterm infants, the researchers said.
The study, funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, was stopped due to the heightened risk of internal bleeding.
In the study, researchers wanted to see if so-called "cord milking" was a good alternative to delayed cord clamping. Delayed clamping lets cord blood flow into the infant at a natural pace.
"Most doctors try delayed cord clamping when they can, and they occasionally will do the cord milking," said lead researcher Dr. Anup Katheria, a neonatologist at Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women and Newborns, in San Diego, Calif.
Babies who get cord blood aren't just getting blood, he said.
"These babies are getting stem cells and other cells that might help them develop a little bit better than babies that don't receive this extra blood," Katheria said. "They also get iron, which is a potent nutrient for brain development, and there's probably other things in the blood that might help these babies."
But, given these findings, he that said cord milking should be avoided in extremely preterm babies, those born at 23 to 27 weeks of pregnancy.
For the study, Katheria's team recruited women who were pregnant for less than 32 weeks and were at risk for preterm delivery. They were randomly assigned to umbilical cord milking or a 60-second delay in cord clamping.
The team had planned to enroll 1,500 infants (750 in each group). Because the study was cut short, only 474 babies were included, according to the report.
Among infants who had cord milking 12% died or developed severe brain bleeds, compared with 8% in the delayed-clamping group. The researchers said this difference wasn't statistically significant.
Neither was the death rate at 7% in the cord-milking group and 6% in the delayed-clamping group.
But the rate of severe brain bleeding was significantly higher among babies who had cord milking (8%) versus those who had delayed clamping (3%), the findings showed.
The greatest risk for severe brain bleeding was among infants born in the 23rd to 27th weeks of pregnancy, the study found. All 20 babies in the cord-milking group who suffered brain bleeds were born at this stage of pregnancy.
Among infants born at 28 to 32 weeks, none in the cord-milking group had bleeding, compared with three in the delayed-clamping group, which was not a significant difference, the researchers said.
Because the risk of brain bleeding was seen only in extremely preterm infants, Katheria's team is continuing to compare cord milking to delayed clamping in babies born at 30 to 32 weeks' gestation to see if either procedure will affect development as they grow. The infants will be evaluated at 2 years of age.
An earlier study of preemies delivered by cesarean section suggested that cord milking benefited preemies' brain development.
Dr. Saima Aftab is medical director of the Fetal Care Center at Nicklaus Children's Hospital in Miami. She said, "The current recommendation is that for preterm infants, delayed cord clamping is safe and should be done."
This study shows that cord milking isn't safe and "people should abandon that practice," Aftab added.
The report was published Nov. 19 in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

New Texas law ends texting while driving
By Nicole Lopez on September 22, 2017 • ( Leave a comment )
by NICOLE LOPEZ//Sports Editor
Imagine being on the scene, looking at a wrecked vehicle belonging to a loved one.
Visualize hearing the heartbreaking news that one you love has been killed due to an accident because he or she couldn't put their phone down.
This incident happened to Jeanne Brown, a mother who lost her teenage daughter to a texting and driving accident.
Last year, there were around 10,000 traffic crashes caused by distracted driving, according to the Texas Department of Transportation. The Texas Legislature has decided to limit the amount of car accidents and death totals by passing a new law. The law is called "The Alex Brown Memorial Act," in honor of Alex Brown, who lost her life to texting and driving on her way to school. The law went into affect on September 1. The new law focuses on the use of messaging applications, which include reading, writing, or sending text messages while driving.
This new law has hit close to home, especially for Brown, who is a teacher at Brownfield. Brown, her husband, and her two daughters used to reside in Seagraves. Brown taught business, while her daughters attended school. In November of 2009, her oldest daughter Alex, who planned on attending South Plains College to become a broadcast journalist, was killed in an accident because she was texting and driving on her way to school.
"Alex went off the road and rolled her truck," according to Brown. "When we lost our daughter, my husband and I felt we needed to share our story to people. We had to let them know it was dangerous to text and drive."
Brown and her husband dedicated the next three years to sharing the story of their daughter. Brown's husband shut his business down and Brown resigned from teaching at Seagraves, where she had been teaching for 12 years.
"Alex died in November," recalls Brown. "So, in December we went to our first school, and it was kids who knew Alex. We felt we needed to talk and tell them this can happen to you if you don't stop texting and driving."
According to Brown, from Dec. 1, 2009, her family traveled to different places in Texas, sharing their story. Sharing the story of their daughter didn't go unnoticed. In April of 2010, they were guests on the Oprah Winfrey show. Later in the fall, "Extreme Makeover Home Edition" was wanting to build a house for someone who has been affected by texting and driving.
"The people who we met from the Oprah Winfrey show said they sent our name in," says Brown. "In June 2010, we were contracted by the "Extreme Makeover" producers, and they asked us to send in an application."
In November 2010, "Extreme Makeover" built Brown's family a house, and the show aired in January 2011. From the exposure of being on the Oprah Winfrey show and school publications writing about the family, opportunities were presented to the Brown family to travel and share their story with the world.
"With 'Extreme Makeover' working with us, they told us if we were selected for the house, we would have so many offers that I wouldn't be able to continue teaching," Brown explains. "So, I resigned in July 2010 from my position."
According to Brown, her family had several events in the fall of 2010. When "Extreme Makeover" aired, the family kept getting calls to speak, which had them on the road for two years.
"We've been to almost every state," says Brown. "I tried to keep a list at first. But we got so busy. We drove a lot because we had Alex's pickup on a trailer. We had to end up flying most of the time because we were so busy. We still have Alex's pickup. It's currently behind our house."
Brown has been back teaching for five years, and she said she still takes days off and shares their story with people. Even though she likes the law, Brown thinks it could be a little more restrictive with regard to what people are able to do with their phones while driving.
"I feel like the law is going to help," says Brown. "We've shared our story for the last eight years, and I feel we've done everything we can to help people realize how dangerous texting and driving is. There has to be discipline somewhere. I'm just thankful we are starting somewhere."
Brown encourages South Plains College students to think before they pick up the cell phone, because you don't know what could happen.
"I know when you're young, you think you're invincible," explains Brown. "because I remember thinking that when I was in college. It's not true, and I hope all the students at South Plains College know how valuable their life is."

Professor, School of Natural and Built Environment
Emailn.johnson@qub.ac.uk
I am open to PhD applicants in the fields of: Public memory and Space Historical Geographies of Natural History Nationalism and Ireland Geography and Fictional Literature
I joined QUB in 1996 having held lectureships in Human Geography at Loughborough University (1990-91) and University College London (1991-1996). I am an historical and political geographer working in three distinct but related areas of scholarship (i) the relationships between identity politics and representation; (ii) the spaces of scientific knowledge and the role of aesthetics; and (iii) place and nationalism.
These three strands of my research have been anchored in the following projects. Firstly, I continue to develop the conceptual and empirical dimensions of the performance of social memory with respect to public monuments, museums and heritage venues. My contributions to this research theme are demonstrated by the publication of articles in the key journals in my field (e.g. Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Journal of Historical Geography) and in my monograph Ireland, the Great War and the Geography of Remembrance published by Cambridge University Press (2003/ reprinted 2007). William Jenkins observed in his review for the Journal of Interdisciplinary History that "this book offers valuable new insights and methodical directions for future historical and interdisciplinary studies. Its many illustrations add to the reading experience and, all in all, Johnson navigates through a variety of sources and analyzes events with great skill to produce an innovative and cogently argued piece of work." James Loughlin found it "a challenging, highly stimulating and valuable contribution to an increasingly popular field of inquiry" (European History Quarterly); Joshua Hagen judged it to be "an excellent piece of scholarship" (Professional Geographer); and David C. Harvey thought it "a thoroughly readable and highly original monograph that leaves the reader very much enlightened but also still curious – like all good books, the reader will go away with more questions than they started with" (Progress in Human Geography). My 1995 journal article on monuments and nationalism has been re-printed in two edited collections.
The second strand of my research congregates around the development and design of botanical gardens as sites in which the relationship between science and beauty in the formation of natural history knowledge is practised. This body of work builds on and significantly extends current research on the borderlines between geography and science studies and has culminated in the publication of my second monograph, the 267-page Nature Displaced, Nature Displayed: Order and Beauty in Botanical Gardens published by I.B. Tauris in 2011 which attracted the following judgment by the University of Cambridge geographer James S. Duncan: "Nuala Johnson's masterful ethnography of three sites where the canons of science and aesthetics are refracted and blurred demonstrates why a geographical imagination matters. This is comparative history at its best." I am currently examining the relationship between gender, empire and natural history in the context of early twentieth-century Burma.
The third theme of my research has focused on the role of place in the articulation of nationalist identities and has been rooted in analyses of education policy and language, literary geographies and identity, and the role of the heritage industry in representing a nation's past. Drawing conceptually from Antonio Gramsci's thesis on the development of 'organic intellectuals' in the harnessing of nationalist politics, this work has resulted in the publication of several key papers in the leading academic journals in the discipline (e.g. Annals of the Association of American Geographers, Political Geography, Environment and Planning D, Social and Cultural Geography).

Since Jan. 6 attacks, spiritual leaders unify to combat Christian nationalism
January 9, 2022 / CCME
The Jan. 6 insurrection of the U.S. Capitol drew recent attention to the phenomenon of Christian nationalism, but religious and spiritual leaders acknowledge its existence long before that.
his article is the fourth in a series on Christian nationalism supported by the Pulitzer Center.
(RNS) — Shannon Rivers believes that Indigenous people are the moral compass of the United States.
A member of the Native American Akimel O'otham, or River People of the Southwestern U.S., Rivers points to historical accounts of the northeastern Wampanoag, who in the 1600s taught the Pilgrims how to grow crops and weather harsh winters. "W
We were the ones who had that initial moral understanding of how you take care of one another and we still maintain that today, despite every wrong that has been done," said Rivers, who is a spiritual counselor for incarcerated Native Americans. "Indigenous peoples still gather. They still pray for those who are settler societies."
The Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol introduced many Americans to the phenomenon of Christian nationalism, as some of the rioters carried crosses or invoked the name of Jesus. But for many non-Christian Americans, Christian nationalism is an unavoidable fact of life.
RELATED: Post-Trump, Christian nationalists preach a theology of vaccine resistance
Rivers said the history of Christian nationalism began when the European settlers answered the Native Americans' welcome with a belief that divine providence had ordained their domination of Indigenous land.

Ads selling cars.
Posted on February 1, 2016 by Kevin Hunt
Everybody loves a nice, lighthearted joke about stalking right?
All. Day. Long. Stalking jokes.
Yep, everybody is going to love our new stalker-themed Jeep ad.
Except, maybe, the 6.6 million people who are victims of stalking every year. So what if, you know, roughly a quarter of women experience stalking at some point in their lives. Those people might not be able to take a joke. Whatevs. So what if stalking is a crime in 50 states. It's not like it's always a felony. Can't people take a joke?
See, when funny and cute girls are the stalkers, it's super funny and cute. It's comedy gold! So memorable; so much less edgy than those rape jokes we eventually decided not to use after that killjoy focus group. Plus, it's only like 7% of men who've been stalked. Well, at least that's how many wusses admit it. Women would never stalk other women, duh, so it's not like this could upset anybody. Hell, most men would totally be excited if they had a stalker. Amirite?
Better idea: let's put a stalker joke in a promoted tweet so it's effectively stalking people too!
Stupor Bowl XLVII Champion: Goats
There is hope for the future, but the present is largely lost. Colin Kaepernick outplayed the Ravens, but early troubles and late no-calls (referees) and bad calls (coaches) doomed the 49ers hopes at a comeback victory. Much like aging fossil and erstwhile deer antler aficionado Ray Lewis, the tired baby boomers on Madison Avenue failed to deliver even one meaningful contribution to the biggest day in television advertising.
Budweiser earned some sniffles with the life cycle of a Clydesdale with separation anxiety. It's nice that the horse bonded with the trainer, but the ad doesn't speak very highly of the living conditions for Clyde as a member of the pulling team. Or for his safety in their care. Unless galloping freely down city streets is a good idea. I can't be sure.
It's an ad focused on a compelling story. But pair this story with the latest and greatest "upscale" Budweiser product, "Black Crown" (which follows "Platinum" and "Select" and on and on as inane attempts to take upscale a nasty beer), and A-B has seriously missed the mark on trying to get people to buy their products. Hint: start making regional craft beer. That's what people drink. Stop trying to make yet another beer with "more taste" that perfectly multicultural rich people in immense houses will exclusively sip while being toasted by a man in an apron. What's that? Those people don't exist? Oh, right. No wonder A-B marketshare is tanking. Must be time to buy up some more competition.
The best ad of the evening was from Doritos. Naturally, it came from their crowd-sourced ideas campaign. No major agency = no terrible misogynistic ad campaigns. Audi's attempt at youth empowerment yielded a sexual assault and a young driver speeding. Classy. (A huge fall from their tow truck driver "QUATTTTTRRROOOOOO!" goodness from last year.) GoDaddy aims for the bottom deliberately, so they don't even merit a mention. Someday, the fact that women comprise more than half of the adult population will penetrate the brains of Madison Ave. Until then, expect the trash to continue.
So, on to the winner. A single white guy (I'd have used Bjorn Johnson) wanders aimlessly through a neighborhood only to come across a goat for sale. Disregarding the neck brace of the seated single white guy offering the goat for sale, our bearded hero (let's call him, "Beardy") sees nothing but good times ahead, and proceeds home with the goat (I've named the goat "Nacho"). What to feed the goat? Doritos! Convenient, because Beardy also loves Doritos. Not, it seems, as much as does Nacho, who loudly devours every chip in sight. The empty cupboard elicits a human shriek from Nacho (then another), which, along with Nacho's understated neck-brace wearing prior owner, combine to deliver the spot to first place this year. Diversity disclaimer: only single white guys would consider a goat pet and a Doritos diet, so it's OK for the only humans in the ad to be white men (sort-of men). How'd they make it? Here is how.
Cool Stuff. We're Cool Too.
Posted on January 16, 2013 by Kevin Hunt
"Hmm, what's this ad for? Jetpacks? Meh, you need a parachute. Wet swing-sets? Wait, what's that cool kite? OMG! HOVERCRAFT MOTORCYCLE!!!"
So proceeds the imagined internal dialogue of the 18 – 34 yr. old male target of Honda's latest bad ad.
"SWEET geodesic solar thingy windows in that industrial start-up loft space! I could start my business there – write Apps and make a million dollars – AND cardboard furniture! OMG! ROBOT BARISTAS!"
To their credit, there haven't been any obvious references to sex.
"Whoah! Parachute-FREE jetpacks!, and hipster-friendly folding bikes. Wait, what's this confusingly out-of-place jet? Hmm, nevermind – back to the good stuff – a skin diving airbag float! Baby won't get the Bends! Hmm, whatsis? – a robo baby carriage? Babies? huh? Whew, that was close – a surfer – no! – a Surfboard Hydroplane! or Hydrofoil! Whichisit? Who cares, a virtual projected keyboard! Why doesn't my iPhone 5 have that?!?"
The brain is now primed for the switch. So many cool and desirable things splashed quickly onto the screen, slowly peppered with – something.
"Wha? Hondas?"
Things Can Always Be Better
Softly, as the viewer's brain has been reduced to a rudimentary amygdala mush by the onslaught of cool gadgets, there has been dialogue. Dialogue slowly describing what the advertiser considers the ideal state of mind of innovators. People who believe:
Cue the Honda logos. Everywhere. The dialogue continues, "We like those people."
"They think like us."
"They think like us." As in, "We've always been thinking that way, and others are just now getting on board." Or, "We came up with the idea of continuous improvement, and anyone with the same idea is our bro, but ultimately emulating our lead." Slick. How could anyone think what comes after such coolness is anything but awesome incarnate?
Quick, time to see the car. It doesn't fly, or hover. But it does seem, briefly, to drive through that sweet start-up loft space.
Broderick, Broderick…
Ferris Bueller, you're my hero.
Except, not really anymore.
Here is the whole, uncut, extendo-version.
It's amusing. It's an homage. It's a clever remake.
It's pretty much a complete sellout, and delivers a heartbreaking message: Even if you were as cool as Ferris Bueller, when you get old, you have no friends and have to drive a Honda CR-V instead of a Ferrari.
Broderick goes to the museum. Alone.
To the Amusement Park. Alone.
To the Racetrack. Alone.
To the Beach. Alone.
To Dinner. Alone.
Whatever – even without Cameron or Sloane, it's fun. "The Hangover" and "Old School" director Todd Philips packs the two and a half minute Ferris-fest with many, many, many little pieces of the original film. Cameron's Detroit Red Wings sweater makes an appearance. The CR-V boasts a "SO CHOICE" license plate. But the ad wouldn't have been complete without the iconic Ferris Bueller vest. It's there. Did you catch it?
Nostalgia aside, however, the message is somewhat better than the current Honda "Leap List" spots. Although the people composing such lists do at least seem to have companions in their lives…
Maybe Broderick should have actually called in sick on this one?

Howard Michael May
H.M. "MIKE" MAY Howard Michael "Mike" May, a pillar of the Bartlesville community for nearly 60 years, passed away in Tulsa on March 31, 2020. He was 85. Born and raised in Bartlesville, he was the 2nd son of Jacob and Helen May. He graduated from the University of Michigan in 1956 with a business degree. He was a member of the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity, where his brothers became lifelong friends. After college, Mike joined the Navy, proudly serving as an officer attached to the Pacific Fleet. On a leave from naval service, his brother Jack set him up with Marty Ruvel. It was a match made in heaven. Mike and Marty married and moved to Bartlesville in 1960, where they raised their family and lived together for 50 years. Mike joined his father in the family clothing business, May Brothers, where he clothed countless men and boys over the years. May Brothers endured for 99 years before closing it in 2009. Unable to give up his love for his work and customers, Mike opened a custom clothing business, which he operated until his passing. Deeply devoted to Bartlesville, Mike served on countless boards, including ones for Jane Phillips Hospital, Bluestem Foundation, Bartlesville Symphony, YMCA, Boys and Girls Club, OK Mozart, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Rotary, Green Country Senior Living, Bartlesville History Museum, Bartlesville Chamber of Commerce, Bartlesville Community Foundation, Bartlesville Education Promise, and many more. He also led the Menswear Retailers of America and served on the board of the National Retail Federation. With a ready smile and a booming laugh, Mike was a friend to all he met and a true gentleman. He loved Bartlesville, his family and friends, college football, golf, music, theater, and dessert. After Marty's untimely passing, Mike met and married Sandi Tilkin in 2014. They enjoyed life together to the fullest, traveling, attending cultural events and dinner parties with friends, and being with family. Sandi was a loving and caring companion, and her children � Karen, Michael, and Lori and their families � welcomed him with open arms. Mike would often say how lucky he was to have had two such extraordinary women in his life. Mike's most enduring � and his proudest � legacy is his four sons and their families: Mark of Culver City, California; Scott and Wendy of Norcross, Georgia; Craig (Tigger) and Dianna of Denver, Colorado; Billy and Sari of Larchmont, New York; and grandchildren Nicole, Jake, Harris, Jessica, Charlie and Alex. He is also survived by his brother Larry May; sister-in-law Betsy Zimbalist and her husband Stuart, and many nieces, nephews, and loving cousins and extended family members across the country. Mike was predeceased by his parents Jacob and Helen May, his wife Marty, and his brother Jack. The family will hold a public memorial in Bartlesville later when conditions permit such an event. Donations in Mike's memory can be made to the Bartlesville Community Foundation, Bartlesville Boys and Girls Club, or Bartlesville Education Promise. Fitzgerald Ivy Chapel, 918-585-1151

Human Sciences is an education organization dedicated to fostering insight, understanding, and conversation in our community. The current election cycle is dedicated to 0% of these things. In an attempt to bridge that gap, from now until November 8th we'll be all election, all the time. Every week, in lieu of our usual critical theory reading group, we'll host an open-ended discussion of the election. Before class, we'll also post optional supplementary material (articles, podcasts, videos, etc.) to give our conversation some additional context. Bring your questions, frustrations, a desire to learn about local and national candidates and issues, and anything else that you can't stop thinking about. We promise a substantive discussion, and we welcome all political affiliations. Let's GET INTO IT.

I had a bit of brainstorming with a friend about Shanghai, and how the situation in DX3 might be possible.
First of all, in no way is it possible that this pic (http://images.gamestar.de/images/idgwpgsgp/bdb/1985581/122.jpg) shows the entire city. Shanghai is huge and sprawling city today, what's in this pic is probably one new district.
Secondly, once you look past the buildings, the whole giant, supported platform thing looks somewhat like an oversized oil rig type of structure. Remember Big Shell from MGS2?
So, we thought up this scenario: the Chinese government wanted to construct a giant, geothermal powerplant to power the whole province. However, a great amount of funds was obviously needed to build a structure like that. So, they sold unique, attractive real estate on the plant's surface to the highest bidders. The plant itself obviously needed large amount of (poorly paid, ha!) staff and other support, so low standard quaters were built underneath the platform as well. Add to that some wild, unplanned, uncontrolled and largely illegal urban growth, and you've got the current situation.
Plausible enough for a DX game?
Anyway, whatever happens in Shanghai I'll take it... as long as it's not a caricature of the Chinese, like in 24.
1) It's concept art. Ergo, just a concept.
2) You can clearly see what looks like a new part under construction to the right.
3) You'll be able to explore all of it. I don't think it's unrealistic to not make it to scale. Just, not as bad as DX1 compressed spaces, like the park in Hell's Kitchen.
"THERE'S FIGHTING IN THE PARK!"
"....you mean the two tables and a tree?"
OK, I think I actually managed to identify the location. It's Hengsha Island. Compare the outlines (http://maps.google.pl/maps?f=q&hl=pl&geocode=&q=shanghai&sll=52.025459,19.204102&sspn=6.179628,14.150391&ie=UTF8&ll=31.338976,121.841125&spn=0.134008,0.2211&z=12&g=shanghai&iwloc=addr).
OK, I think I actually managed to identify the location. It's Hengsha Island. Compare the outlines.
Good find, and seems to back up your original post that what we're seeing is only a small fraction of the area.
Apparently there's not much stuff on the island right now (it's reportedly a nice, quiet place for relaxing outside the city), so yep, pretty much everything in the concept art was built within 20 years, no building another layer upon an already existing city.
Oh the aerial photo, it almost looks like there are farms on the island, but further North-West.
The portion where the city in DX3 stands looks like it might have grown out of a little port city currently on the island. So it makes sense so far.
Maybe Adam won't be riding bloack helicopters and will have to find a way to fool security.
It has the right geometry for a runway, but the lights are way off. Not to mention that for a city center this size, single runway is simply not going to cut it. Even for a small general aviation airport, it is too small.
Consider Cleveland, for example. I'm using it because I am familiar with the area.
This is a major airport in Cleveland area.
This is a small general aviation airport in downtown Cleveland. There is a great air show there every fall, and it is right next to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Notice that it has two runways in parallel plus a taxiway.
And here is my University's airport.
Notice that while there is only one paved runway, even this tiny airport has an additional grass runway. Again, notice the taxiway that runs along the main runway. I'm pointing it out because on the picture it looks like there might be two runways. However, if this was to be an airport, the second path would be a taxiway.
Finally, take a note of the width to length ratio. Again, it is way off on the picture.
If EM intended this to be an airport, they really should have done their homework better.
it barely resembles a oil rig or anything industrial. it looks more like a elevated monorail platform connecting several large elevated mono rail stations.
i also believe that its somekind of a railway system,or something like this,probably an antimatter-equipped railway line hub which connect various spots in the city.
Also it looks like a "ceiling" of the lower part of the city.
Looks to me like a standard Sci-Fi highway-on-the-roof-tops. You can even see the smeared head lights of the vehicles buzzing by.
What are you guys on about? That's clearly a landing strip. You can see everything. The two runways (as well as the diagonal intersect) the two take off ramps to the top-right and bottom-left of the cutout, as well as the planes and the bunkers.:hmm: Good job in getting the location though.

You may be right about the hangar. But there is still only one runway, and it is still the worst airport replica I have ever seen. I know it is supposed to be future, but you either got VTOL or not. The geometry of the airport should not be effected. EM should do their homework better.


Gorgeous grains. I grow cut flowers so thought I'd live these a try as ornamentals, leaving some in the field to harvest as grain. The colors are startlingly bright, very fall-like. The only fairly minor problem is the plants are lodging, I'm cutting as they fall, but not sure how many will be able to support the heavy seed heads all the way to maturity. I'd like to know how late in the season I can plant these and still get them to flower and set seed, since it's a little early (Sept. 3) for fall colors for my market. I believe I planted in late April here in the Pacific Northwest. If anyone knows whether this variety will thrive if planted as late as June, please post here.
I LOVE this quinoa. It's easy to grow, even with this hot, dry summer we've been having. The colors are gorgeous! I haven't harvested any yet, but the flower heads are loaded! I agree with the other review - when the plants are young and just starting to set flowers, aphids will come in droves. Just be diligent about spraying them off with water every day. After a few weeks, they seem to go away. My plants are easily reaching 5-6 ft tall, and still growing. They are very top heavy, and I've had to tie some to sticks to keep them upright. Will update on the harvest when it gets here.
Have yet to eat the seeds as they are still growing but have enjoyed the leaves added to salads and tossed into hot pasta as I would with spinach all summer. These plants are roughly 5' on average with the tallest reaching almost 7'. Full of buds and just waiting for them to bloom. Only downsides are that aphids seem to be a huge fan of them and that once they reach 4' and begin developing heavy buds some plants will bend and snap in half in strong winds or rain storms.


If you read our deposit tips blog last week ("Not thinking about your refund before moving in? You're doing it wrong"), you're officially a smart renter and on the path to maximizing your apartment security deposit refund.
If you didn't, don't worry – you still have the opportunity to make smart decisions when you're preparing to move out. Take a look at these 7 tips that will help you get your deposit back.
Generally, you should provide a 30-day notice to your landlord, but check your lease to see how much notice yours requires. If your manager doesn't have an official form for you to sign, put it in writing anyway and send it via certified mail. Better safe than sorry!
Your apartment security deposit refund will likely be mailed to the address your landlord has on file. If you don't provide an updated address, your deposit might be mailed to the place you just left. Whoops. Provide your new address when you submit your written notice.
3. Pay attention to what you've already paid.
Unless it's explicitly stated in your lease, your deposit can't be used as your last month's rent. Getting this wrong can be a costly mistake, and you may be hit with late fees in your final month.
Does the word "inspection" give you the heebie-jeebies? It shouldn't – it's your opportunity to learn what your landlord considers normal wear and tear versus damage. Ask your manager to schedule a pre move-out inspection with you about two weeks before your departure. This will give you time to coordinate repairs prior to move out. Remember that your manager can only advise on what they see, so now's not the time to cover that red wine stain with your couch.
5. Start sudsin' … or not.
You'll be expected to leave the apartment as clean as it was when you first moved in, minus any normal wear and tear. Dirty carpets aren't considered normal wear and tear, for example, and generally need to be professionally cleaned. At Prometheus, we find that many Neighbors (as we call our residents) neglect to thoroughly clean their apartments to our standards, which is sparkling clean. And that's a tall order, considering everything else on your mind when you're moving.
If you live at Prometheus, we recommend skippin' the sudsin'. Instead, let us do the dirty work for you. It's often easier – and cheaper – to leave it to the pros, especially when you consider all the cleaning supplies you'd need to buy. Be sure to ask your manager for the details about making it effortless for you.
We're not just talking trash. You might think you're doing the next renter a favor by leaving behind a fancy showerhead or custom cabinet knobs, but if your landlord disagrees, you'll be charged for removal. Check before leaving anything.
6. Return your keys, fobs and remotes ASAP.
Gather up any fobs and remotes (they're costly to replace) and be sure to return them with your keys. For your safety, most landlords – including Prometheus – will assume you're still at home until they receive your keys. Don't leave them in your home when you go. Instead, return them to the office as you leave to avoid deductions for additional rent. Plus, that gives us one final chance to say goodbye – we're going to miss you!


The states own tax revenue collections is expected to be around Rs 31,000 crore in 2018-19 against Rs 23,136 crore in 2017-18.
Governor Lalji Tandon on Monday said Bihar has registered the highest economic growth of 11.3 per cent in the country during 2017-18 and curbed crime to a great extent, thereby providing a better society for its citizens.

Tandon said the government has adopted "zero tolerance policy" towards corruption and it has also attached top priority to establish rule of law and create a society free of fear.
He said the government's decision to reserve 50 per cent seats in panchayats, urban local bodies and teachers appointment for women is a step in the right direction.
The state government has also implemented 35 per cent quota for women in government jobs and in the recruitment of constables and sub-inspectors in police department.

The governor said power supply reached 5,139 MW in September 2018 against a meagre 700-800 MW in 2005.
He said the government successfully implemented prohibition which has become a "social movement".

Саламанка — первый коммерчески успешный паровоз, построенный в 1812 году  из Лидса для Мидлтонской железной дороги, проходившей от  до Лидса. Паровоз стал первым с двумя цилиндрами. Своё название он получил в честь победы герцога Веллингтона в битве при Саламанке, произошедшей в том же году.

Саламанка была также первым локомотивом с реечной передачей, использовавший запатентованную систему  зубчатой железной дороги. Единственная зубчатая рейка была проложена с внешней стороны путей и задействовалась колесом с левой стороны паровоза. Зубчатое колесо приводилось в движение парными цилиндрами, встроенными в верхнюю часть котла. Поршни работали с передаточным рычагом, а не управлялись противоходом, как у большинства ранних паровозов. Эти двигатели проработали до 20 лет.

Всего было построено 4 таких паровоза. Первый, Саламанка, был уничтожен спустя 6 лет из-за взрыва котла. Согласно показаниям Джорджа Стефенсона, данным в парламентском комитете в ходе расследования происшествия, машинист неумело обращался с предохранительным клапаном котла.

"It just felt really good and I felt really good on my bike. I was just excited and when I started out the week, I had no idea how I was going to do putting it together that many days in a row. I just tried to ride each day as it is and do my best each day and not really worry about what was coming ahead," she said.
Emmett came up as a cross-country competitor but has focused on enduro for the past several seasons.
"I haven't done a stage race in a long time so it was really good to be back out there again," she said. "I was just loving it. It was so fun riding, getting up every day and getting on your bike and riding some amazing trail. The whole day, I was really, really loving it.
"I've been racing enduro full-time the last three years so I had to ride my bike a bit more and I've just been working a lot of skills and downhill training. This year, I knew I was coming into B.C. Bike Race and so I had to spend a lot more time just trail riding."
Emmett, who was part of the winning team in 2008, said the decision to return to the race was a no-brainer after one of her sponsors, Lululemon, said they could secure her an entry.
"B.C. Bike Race is my favourite stage race of all-time," she said. "It was a perfect scenario that came my way... It took me about two seconds to decide."
Emmett noted she particularly enjoyed the Cumberland and North Vancouver stages.
"In the States, we don't have anything close to that... I live in Colorado so a lot of the stuff we ride is fairly dry and flowy and fun but it's just not the same, not even close."
After the B.C. Bike Race, Emmett hopped on a plane to California and handily won the enduro at the USA Cycling Mountain Bike Nationals on July 17.
Cory Wallace of Jasper took four of the seven stages, including the seventh stage in Whistler, to capture the open men's title. Squamish's Quinn Moberg won two stages, while Bellingham's Stephen Ettinger won the other. Wallace overcame a 73-second deficit to Kona teammate Spencer Paxson entering the final stage to pull off the victory.
Whistler participants were Graeme Fitch, Jeffrey Smyth, Nancy Beaudette, Will Huckvale, Shea Colpitts, Caroline Lamont and Cheryl Smyth.


Freedom is the space within which we can act.
Think of these spaces as farm fields: the first season, the first step is to survey them, clear them of obstacles and choose which ones to plant—and which to leave fallow.
We probably have much more freedom, and therefore many more fields 1)Thanks to the Stoics for the analogy of "fertile fields". See Diogenes Laërtius's The Lives of the Philosophers than we may first realize. Since this much "Freedom succumbs to dizziness", as Kierkegard 2)The Concept of Anxiety, 1844 put it, it may help to categorize various types.
the x-axis (left-right) is the integration axis: Health is about wholeness: concern for the various aspects of ourselves and unifying them. Heart is about oneness: concern for other(s) and aligning ourselves with them.
the y-axis (up-down) is the development axis: Head is about thinking: the scope and depth of our intellect, while Hand is about doing: our capacity for action.
"We must cultivate our own garden." – Voltaire, in his Candide conclusion.
Effective action begins with working within our own fields: where we have control or at least significant influence.
One heuristic, that will be more fully developed in Responsibility (the flip side of Freedom) is distinguish between what you simply care about and what you can personally care for. The former are not your fields. Choosing them leads to complaining, wishful thinking as action depends upon the actions of others and/or circumstances outside your control.
CHOOSING FIELDS: As we look at and define more closely the various spaces we have, we'll see many, much more freedom than we previously thought. This can overwhelm, even lead to anxiety.
We may not, especially if new to FARMing, be able to effectively sow, care, and harvest many fields—at least in one growing season. So, it best to focus on a few.
Obstacles: It's important to identify and map out the obstacles in our fields. In agriculture, these can be rocks, clay, stumps, etc. In our selves, these includes injuries (both physical and emotional), blind spots that we may be aware of, addictions and obsessions can effect even the strong willed. Some obstacles can be easily removed, while others take much more effort, and even may turn out to be immovable objects. If so, we decide to avoid and work around those obstacles–or in extreme cases, not sow in those fields altogether.
Exchangeability: Some examples are obvious, common and easy to calculate: we exchange temporal for financial space (time for money) by working overtime—or vice versa by taking a day off. Others may be more dynamic: saving six months of salary (a financial buffer, or space) could also increase your comfort zone (a type of emotional space) to risk making changes to your employment situation, which in turn may increase your space in several ways.
planting "cover crops" which enrich the soil, but are plowed under, rather than harvested.
Arable also applies to seeds, though less often. So, we will look next at seeds of one's potential.


New card featuring the not-so-gentle Giant is due out in January 2010 as part of the Legends Partners expansion.
A party game of bidding and bluffing from Steve Jackson Games. In Nanuk, each player bids for how long he can stay on the trail and how much he will bring home. Each boast must be greater than the one before, until one hunter refuses to raise the bid, saying "You're doomed!" Then the hunt begins. Will the hunt leader make good on his boast, or will the doomers be right? Every player decides secretly to help . . . or to let it fail..
We raised over $1,000 at the event! Thanks to everyone for their generosity and support. We are looking forward to assembling a ridiculous number of game bundles for donations in 2010.

Nice coverage on this game. But that big, chunkin' die is a 30-sider, not a 20- as you stated in the Back Shelf Spotlight.
You also failed to mention(and don't claim modesty) WHO was the best LIAR in the game we played. Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present, Mr. David Coleson, Liar Extraodinaire of BGG.Con 2009!! Yes, my Spiel Journal indicates that David beat me by one stroke at this game.
All I have to say is, if you are ever in Indiana, don't buy a used car from this man!
I knew there were 30 sides on that die. I just wanted to lie about it so that the segment would have an appropriate feel?
I want try to play Wey Kick.
Hey guys. Great episode, as usual.
The 'dicekeeper' rolls as many dice as the current turn number. So, the first round the boulder will roll 1 die, then the next player would roll 2, etc., up to 5 total.
You stated that it starts at 2.
So, you made it harder for yourselves there. That said, you also said that the boulder moves on a roll of 4,5,6 for a 50% chance of moving. It's worse than that. It rolls on a 3,4,5,6. That's why the boulder has managed to kill more of my Adventurers than any of the other traps combined. It's speedy!
Can dead people reply to a post?
Oops! You are correct. The boulder moves on a 3,4,5,6 and the number of dice rolled do in fact depend on the round you are in. We played both of these rules correctly; we just couldn't seem to spit them out right on the show! I would blame myself, but alas I died in the Temple and am no longer around to fess up to my dice faux pas.
We actually played this on Sunday and NOBODY died! Three of us looked at all four glyphs as well, so the lava room was savaged while the one guy who didn't look ran to the lockpicks. In the end the boulder was having a leisurely day and we had plenty of actions to get out.
I've played The Adventureres twice so far. They were very different experiences.
The first game was 3 players, the walls were not a factor at all, with all 3 players getting to see all the glyphs, and grab plenty of treasure. Funnily though, the lava room was set up so that nobody could go very far off one particular path. So the boulder wasn't much of a factor either, as everyone was able to bolt through quickly. One player was able to even run back, and grab one alcove before the boulder got within 5 spaces. Nobody died in the river, or even rolled a 1. So there was virtually no danger, and all three players ended with well over 20 points.
The second game was 6 players. The walls again were not a factor at all. I'm now thinking about taking out a few blanks, or adding in some more arrows to make it more of an issue. The boulder got hauling down the corridor fast, but stalled briefly around the lava room. This time, the trap tiles were in a checkerboard pattern, so there was no route across the room. You could go in a level or two, but then had to spit out the side near the alcoves. Also odd was that all 4 trap tiles were sprung by forgetful players. We had one guy get eliminated this way. We also had a greedy adventurer squished by a boulder in the alcove area (just after he finally got a treasure as well).
I may have had the worst luck ever though. I was doing fairly well (about 16 points in treasure), and was in the river, getting ready to jump out... when I rolled two 1s on three dice. Had to discard all my treasures. I made the second roll. So I was alive, but broke. I *almost* ran across the bridge to go get a known treasure in the lava room, but just then, the boulder moved 5 spaces, and my way was cut off. So I exited the temple...alive, but empty-handed. I guess that's better than the totally dead guy, but not by much.
There are a few changes I would love to see in the game. First off, I would like to see the wall room get amped up a little bit. I realize it can happen quickly sometimes, but I think overall that room is too easy. I want the panic to set in fast. I think people start out thinking it's a panic situation, but quickly realize there's enough time to do plenty of things in there.
I want to see a danger room in between the wall room and the lava room. Why? I think it's too easy to remember the glyphs. Since the two are right next to each other, in some cases...someone can open the lava room up, while others are still in the wall room. Giving them time to specifically eye out the trapped glyphs. I think a short spike and spear chamber you run through to get a pre-determined treasure would be fun, and make the boulder more of a factor as well.
I worry the lava room, as it is now, willl be the thing that brings the game down as is...if you play enough, you'll get to know the glyphs so well, it'll be too easy. Don't know how to change that, more sets of lava tiles? If there were 45 (random number) tiles you had to pick a random 14 from, that would be nearly impossible to remember, especially if all the glyphs kind of looked similar.
The river seems to give up treasures too easily. So far in both games, we've emptied out the treasure deck, in the 6 player game, 4 guys were still in the river when it emptied. While there is the risk of rolling a 1, and it bit me. That's not enough of a deterrent for most it seems. And getting weighed down with 10+ treasures hasn't been a big enough issue for people to dump treasure as they are escaping the temple., We've not had anyone try to use the bridge yet.
Also, I may have missed it in the rules, but if the boulder passes you...are you able to run past it in the corridor?
Even with my quibbles...I LOVE this game. It is just one of the most fun experiences I've had with a game in a long time. I think I want it to be more deadly. And I definitely want to see expansions.
I think 2 of your 3 suggestions would make an already good game even better.
I agree the wall room doesn't present enough danger unless you are super greedy *and* look at all the glyphs.
As for the lava room, maybe your memory is much better than mine! I have died more times from mis-remembering the trap locations than any other way in the game. Your suggestion would only add extra replayability to the game, so I like it as well.
The river is high risk high reward; and especially considering the more treasure you stop to pick up, the slower you move, I have found it easy to either get trapped by the boulder rolling past or having to jettison half the treasure I collected just to get out safely (stupid ones).
By the way, if the boulder passes you, you are stuck in the temple and cannot win.
Let's see, what did I want to play but not get to? Oh yeah, WINGS OF WAR MINIATURES! I keep bringing them but I never play! The timing just never works out right. I'm going to invite myself to Indy one of these days and force you to play with me. And when we're done, we'll play WoW: Dawn of WWII. And then Down in Flames for the trifecta. I really want to play my plane games!

Send me an email and we'll figure out a date for some air battles.
ok - i don't wish to be pedantic.
I thought the John Bull was originally built as a 0-4-0, by Stephenson, and therefore (JBx4)-2=14 making the game "EMO" and not "EVO".
My sources (who are some very sad people, let me add) agree that latter configurations were 4-2-0 but presumably only after some evolution in engineering.
I need to get out more. Except I'm too busy playing Scopa on the iPhone. AND NOW YOU'RE SUGGESTING SCOPA DICE !
As for Scopa, blame the Italians. They sucked me in just like the rest of you. I've been seriously pondering the Scopa dice game rules. Don't be surprised to see that pop up next year. Now THAT I'll take full responsibility (er, credit) for.
Here's where I'd start with Scopa Dice: Ten d10 in each of four colors. Start by drawing four randomly selecting four and rolling them and putting them in the middle of the table. At the beginning of every sub-round, each player draw three and rolls them. Then they're used just like Scopa. Scoring: One point for most dice captured, one point for most yellow dice captured, one point for primera (I'd just go with the total of the highest die in each color for simplicity sake), and one for each yellow seven (there may be multiples). Oh, and one point for each Scopa!
This results in pretty much the same game except that each suit may have not have a straight 1-10 distribution, so it'd be impossible to count cards. The sticking points are: hiding your rolled dice without making it too easy to accidentally change a die (or cheat), and similarly making sure that the dice don't get changed while in your score pile. Oh, and 40 d10's aren't exactly as portable as a Scopa deck.
You could also introduce re-roll rules (X per round) and even play open-handed for a different experience.
I wasn't imagining so many dice. And I hadn't considered d10s. I was thinking d6s and/or d4s. You could do Ace through 6 on a d6 and then do 7 and the 3 honor cards on a d4 (or do another d6 with 2 blank sides - can see mechanics using the blank sides).
I like they way you use the different colors to signify the suits. If I were making a custome set, I'd still want coins, cups, swords on the dice but colors would make it even easier to separate the suits in your mind as you play.
I don't think the dice game has to be a 1:1 analog of the card game. It just has to retain its Scopa-ness, so I am not opposed in principle to things like adding rerolls, etc.
Feel free to email me if you want to continue this discussion. We can collaborate or develop in parallel and compare notes.
I'm trying to rush an order for The Adventurers through, before Christmas. My wife hates you.
But you love us, right, Pikey?
Scopa dice? I'm on it!
Scopa dice? I'm on it! (Actually, I still need to finish my Expedition board and post pics).
Feel free to join the fun, scooterb!
We can start off-site on email but if we get designs ready for the light of day, we'll post them to the forums.
The way we've dealt with the slow speed of the walls is to remove a couple of the blank cards - it makes the walls move more often.

The Inland Revenue (Amendment) (No. 7) Bill 2017 (Amendment Bill) will be gazetted this Friday (December 29). The Amendment Bill seeks to implement the two-tiered profits tax rates regime announced by the Chief Executive in her maiden 2017 Policy Address.
"It is our objective to adopt a competitive taxation system to promote economic development while maintaining a simple tax regime and low tax rates. Introducing a two-tiered profits tax rates regime will reduce the tax burden on enterprises, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and startup enterprises. This will help foster a favourable business environment, drive economic growth and enhance Hong Kong's competitiveness," a government spokesman said.
Under the proposed regime, the profits tax rate for the first $2 million of profits of corporations will be lowered to 8.25 per cent. Profits above that amount will continue to be subject to the tax rate of 16.5 per cent.
For this change, HK Government facilitates to SMEs and startups for developing sustainably in this dynamic market.
This is a welcome tax incentive and it definitely will help relieve the tax burden for SMEs and start up businesses in particular. It will be crucial for organizations with related entities (e.g., business groups) to revise their current structures as each group will have to select one member in the group to benefit by the reduction of tax rate.
