I've got insufficient space to store my bike inside. I fear however that it will rust away within a few years. My question is twofold:
- A) Will this be a problem?
- B) What can I do to prevent this (and possibly other types of decay)?
I've got insufficient space to store my bike inside. I fear however that it will rust away within a few years. My question is twofold:
A small shed seems like the best option if you have space, some insulation inside the shed would help stop condensation.
A bike kept outside will rust given enough time, it's gears etc will also not like being wet all the time. Just as importantly is more likely to get stolen if it is just left outside and I would always rather get on a dry bike then a wet/cold bike.
A tarp that fully covers a bike can provide some insulation and keep out precipitation. Don't buy a "bike cover"; they're overpriced, thin, and non-customizable. For an average-sized bike, an 8' by 10' tarp is enough to just reach to the ground. A weight of around 6 oz per square yard, or a thickness of around 8 mils, seems to be ideal (standard tarps are around 3 oz per square yard and 5 mils thick). In theory, silver colored tarps reflect more infrared than other colors and are better for insulation, but I'm not sure how much of a difference this makes in practice.
One of the most important things to look out for in a tarp is that the grommets are spaced no more than 18 inches apart. You can bunch up all of the grommets along each short end of the tarp and use cable ties to semi-permanently join these grommets. This gives the tarp a fitted shape and makes it fit nicely around the wheels. A good starting point is joining all of the grommets along each short end to a single point. Once you've tried this, you can experiment with tying grommets together in various configurations with cable ties to see if you get a better fit for your bike. You can also tie grommets to a bike rack, which can make it easier to get the bike in and out if you're riding it daily.
The following picture shows a fitted tarp on a bike. On the near side, the four middle grommets are tied together at a point, and the remaining two grommets (at the corners) are tied at a point just below. On the far side, all six grommets are tied together at a point and tied to the bike rack. The long sides of the tarp in the picture are folded in a bit; without folding, they just reach to the ground. With grommets spaced 18 inches apart, you have flexibility to customize the fitting.
In summary, if you get a tarp, get one with the following specs:
and then tie grommets together with cable ties to give it a fitted shape.
As I've been using this for a while, I've noticed that air flow doesn't seem to be much of a problem in practice, so I usually let the sides of the tarp reach to the ground. The tarp is stiff enough that there are always a few small openings where air can get in and out but water can't.
If the bike has a steel frame, make certain to be extra-vigilant about sealing any nicks or scratches in the paint. Steel will rust when exposed, given long enough.
Lube and wax. I know there are bike polishes that probably have wax, but I'd get the paste car wax that comes in a can. Really clean the bike, then use the wax on your frame, seat post, fenders (especially inside where they take a beating from road grime while riding), exposed metal, but NOT your rim braking surfaces. Put good lube on your chain. One guy I know who does a lot of randonneur riding in bad weather (brace yourself, this is a bit extreme) strips his chain of grease and grime, then dips it in melted paraffin. After it cools there are excess chunks of wax, but they drop off quickly. The point is he gets wax inside the pin bushings, which keeps his chain fairly water-resistant. Really lube your cables, or even better get teflon-coated cables. Your might want to put a cover on your saddle and handlebars, just watch out for condensation forming inside the covers which would defeat the purpose.
If the bike has an aluminum frame, then the things to worry about are the steel parts: gears, chain, cables, and fasteners (bolts and such). All of these things will readily rust if exposed to constant moisture from being outside. Leaving the bike under an awning will help, but not protect it completely—a shed or other enclosure in the best bet.
I use the yardstash bike storage tent. Held up well for a year so far and ventilates to keep my mountain bike dry and rust free,
Tidy Tent is a zipped tent which can be secured to floor or wall - I've ordered mine just a couple of days ago... If you search for Tidy Tent you'll get more info. Hope that helps.

Join us at the Saint Louis University Museum of Art as D.J. Josh Levy spins and weaves classic movie soundtracks with the film-inspired tapestries contained in the museum's current exhibition, "Sun Smith-Foret: Final Cut."
From Scarface to Shaft ... from Ray to the Lone Ranger, more than 30 painted and embellished tapestries, ranging from small pieces to wall-sized installations, represent Smith-Foret's interpretation of classic film and cinema.
Smith-Foret uses the African American textile technique of strip piecing which joins highly contrasting strips, while layering multiple patterning through appliqué and other fabric alterations. The result is compelling imagery that conveys her interpretation of the tone and color of film genres that include Westerns; Women in Film; African-American films; and Global Cinema.
Soundtracks from "Almost Famous;" "Lady Sings the Blues;" "Biggie & Tupac," and many more, set the stage for an evening that is rated "PG," positively great!
No tickets required.
Popcorn, movie fare, and complementary Anheuser-Busch products will be served.

Hey, the book is listed!
Anyway, the book is called "LEGO Mindstorms NXT: The Mayan Adventure" and the book is targeted at ages 10 and up. No official pagecount yet, but it'll probably be over 300 pages. The book is a little different in that it uses a fictional storyline to setup situations where a NXT robot can 'save the day' so-to-speak. Each of the 5 bots has complete building instructions and programming instructions, but with commentary and explanations which I hope readers will appreciate... I don't just say "Click here" and set this to 50... I explain WHY my bots are built and programmed the way they are...
Thanks go to Filip for the info...

Jim - the book sounds like it will be quite engaging for your target. Nice one!
As to Amazon - each country site has its own database, and this gets updated with data from the local distributors. The Amazon sites do international sales but there does not seem to be much internal distribution.
The only exceptions I have noticed are some language materials and US DVDs.

I've included some nice surprises in the book... I wanted to write a book for kids, but I think there are a LOT of adults who will find it useful as well. I'm very proud of all the bots in the book, but there's one in particular that is just an absolute favorite of mine... but I won't say which one because I don't want to give anything away...
There are plenty of appendices and some "sneak peeks" included in there as well... tons of screenshots for the programming sections and every bot has a HUGE amount of visual instructions.

Congratulations! I was plotting to write a book when I was a MDP hopeful (but alas, I was not chosen) Perhaps next year after FLL is over. Any tips on getting published?

Thanks, Tom.
Trust me, it's not too late to start writing a book. There are only 4 books that I know of that are scheduled for release in the next 4-5 months for the NXT.
As for getting published, that's a tougher question. Obviously you have to have a good idea for a book and it needs to be different enough from what else is out there... writing ability is also somewhat required (especially for new authors), but I've edited over 100 technical books in the past 8 years and I can tell you that lack of spelling and grammar skills hasn't kept some writers from getting books published - the publisher just gets a good editor to clean up the book (but this is usually only true for popular authors).
This is only my 2nd book published (last one was back in 2003) so please don't take anything I say here as law... there are probably always exceptions.

I just started reading both SOD #2 and # simultaneously (one is reserved for the gym).
I, too, find the science parts long-winded and while somewhat useful, I've gotten extremely annoyed at the some of the presumptions of the science writers, particularly in their views on evolution. If they don't agree with a certain point of view, they simply say it's wrong, and they state assumptions as if they were facts. For example, they claim that Stephen Gould's very sensible opinion that if evolution were 'rewound' to the beginning that life would have evolved in totally different ways is wrong without providing any good evidence why this is so. They claim that just because certain features are common in many species that it was inevitable that these features would develop. While admitting that string theory is completely unprovable, they nevertheless totally buy into the huge mass of mumbo jumbo that the string theorists have thrown out there to create a totally half-baked hypothesis that our kind of universe is not only inevitable, but probable. They try to discredit Dawkins and other biologists while not particularly well proving their own counterarguments.
As far as the 'non-science' bits go, I don't find the stories or dialogue anywhere near Pterry's best.

3 Rare Candies in exchange for Missingno. Master's Lv. 1 Male Shuppet!
*takes out of Pokeball*
: ...
Okay, let's see why everybody likes Shuppet...
Shuppet, the Puppet Pokemon. Any negative emotion--envy, malice, hate--is considered food for this Pokemon. Shuppet will roam cities at night looking for people that have these dark feelings and drain them of these emotions using their horn. If they find a house with a big concentration of bad emotions, they will make their nest there and be able to sustain themselves while they hide during the day. The more negativity they have, the stronger they become.
: Hey, kid...
Wha... You just talked! Just like Keith's Shuppet and Minerva!
: Yeah... I used to be a human, so...
Wow, and you don't have the creepy way those other Shuppet talk either.
: Listen, will you just quit gawking at me and send me somewhere to die? I deserve it after what I did...
What... what did you do?
: Can... can we talk later on about this? It's... kinda personal.
Okay, well, since you were a human, maybe you remember your name?
: It's Michael. So... are you going to send me off somewhere like I asked you to?
Why would I do that? I think you're a special Pokemon, and there's a reason why you were brought to me. No way I'd give you up for anything!
: ...Fine. ...I'll let you be my trainer then.
Thanks! Now, since you're a special Pokemon, I think you'll like this Ghost Ball I got on Halloween!

The phenomenon of crypto-Judaism, however, dates back to earlier times as Jews forced or pressured to convert by their sovereign hosts, or embracing their opportunities, still secretly kept Jewish rites. The father of Maimonides, for example, is purported to have nominally embraced Islam during the Almohad persecutions of Muslim Spain in 1146.
Some of the Jewish followers of Sabbatai Zevi (known as Sabbateans) and later of Jacob Frank (known as "Frankists") formally converted to Islam and Catholicism respectively, but maintained aspects of their versions of Messianic Judaism.
Many crypto-Jews live in Russia and other Eastern European countries, though many of them may have become Jews publicly since the end of Communism. It also appears that there are, or have been, several classes of Crypto-Jews in Muslim lands; thus the ancestors of the Daggatuns probably kept up their Jewish practises a long time after their nominal adoption of Islam. This was also done by the Maimins of Salonica (Grätz, in "Monatsschrift," Feb., 1884), and near Khorassan there still remain a number of Jews known as the "Jedid al-Islam," who were converted to Islam half a century ago ("Il Vessillo Israelitico," April, 1884). In central Iran, there is a village called Sebe, where the local Muslims practice many Jewish customs, such as women lighting a candle on Friday night (the eve of the Jewish Sabbath). Prior to sundown on Friday, they prepare a small fire which they leave on throughout Saturday, so as not to ignite the fire on Sabbath. It is believed Sebe is one of several Persian Jewish communities who underwent forced mass conversion to Islam.
Small communities of crypto-Jews are still said to exist, still maintaining their hidden traditions, in the Balearic Islands, in Portugal especially at Covilhã, northeastern Brazil, and throughout Spain.
One interesting example is the "Belmonte Jews" in Portugal. A whole community survived in secrecy for hundreds of years by maintaining a tradition of intermarriage and by hiding all the external signs of their faith. The Jewish community in Belmonte goes back to the 12th century and they were only discovered in the 20th century. Their rich Sephardic tradition of Crypto-Judaism is unique. Only recently did they contact other Jews and part of them now profess Orthodox Judaism, although many still retain their centuries-old traditions.
Today, they comprise a population of 20,000-25,000 on an island of 750,000; they have professed Roman Catholicism for centuries but have only recently seen a lessening in ethnic tensions with ethnic Majorcans. According to some Orthodox Rabbis, the majority of Xuetes are probably Jewish under Jewish law due to the low rate of intermarriage with outside groups. Only recently have intermarriages between the two groups been more prevalent or noticeable.
During World War II, Nazi Germany is known to have pressured Majorcan religious authorities into surrendering the Xuetes, targeted because of their Jewish ancestry; religious authorities are reported to have refused the Nazi request.
Several Xuetes are reported to have "reconverted" to Judaism, and some are known to work as Rabbis.
Many of the immigrants from Portugal were secondary immigrants from the Jewish Expulsion in Spain of 1492. However, a later similar decree was also issued in Portugal in 1497 effectively converted all Jewish children, making them wards of the state unless the parents also converted. Therefore, many of the early crypto-Jewish migrants to Mexico in the early colonial days were technically first to second generation Portuguese with Spanish roots before that. The number of such Portuguese migrants was significant enough that the label of "Portuguese" became synonymous with "Jewish" throughout the Spanish colonies. Immigration to Mexico offered lucrative trade possibilities in a well-populated colony with nascent Spanish culture counterbalanced by a large non-Christian population. It was largely thought that inquisition-activities would be lax given that the lands were over-whelmingly populated by non-Christian indigenous peoples.
So many perceived crypto-Jews were going to Mexico during the 1500s that officials complained in written documents to Spain that Spanish society in Mexico would become significantly Jewish. Officials found and condemned clandestine synagogues in Mexico City. At this point, colonial administrators instituted The Law of the Pure Blood, which prohibited migration to Mexico for New Christians (Christiano Nuevo), i.e. anyone who could not prove to be Old Christians for at least the last three generations. During this early time the Mexican Inquisition was formally instituted to insure the orthodoxy of all migrants into Mexico. The Mexico Inquisition was also deployed in the traditional manner to begin ensuring orthodoxy of converted indigenous peoples. The first burnings or Autos de Fe of the Mexican Inquisition were largely targeted at indigenous converts convicted of heresy or crypto-Jews convicted of relapsing into their ancestral faith.
Except for the province of Nuevo León, the early migration of crypto-Jewish converts did not continue unabated past the initiation of the Blood Purity Laws.
Luis Carvajal y de la Cueva was a Portuguese royal accountant and a New Christian, who received a royal charter to settle the large expanse of land in the hostile frontier, named Nuevo León. Significantly, Carvajal y de la Cueva received an exemption from the King of Spain to allow any New Christian to participate in the settling of this region. This exemption allowed an increased number of peoples to come to the hostile region while doing so with immigrants that were legally barred from entering Mexico elsewhere. Carvajal chartered ships from Portugal and the passenger list is thought to have consisted exclusively of New Christians.
With Carvajal as governor the colony was based in the city of Monterrey, currently in the state of Nuevo León. Within a few years, reports were filed in Mexico City claiming specifically of Jewish rites being performed in the Northern Province and of lax Christianization efforts to convert heathen indigenous peoples.
The governor, his immediate family members and others were called to appear before the Inquisition in Mexico City. They were arrested and jailed. The governor subsequently died in jail, while his family members were rehabilitated. One of these was Anna Carvajal, a niece of the Governor. She and others were eventually caught again and sentenced to a burning at the stake for relapsing.
The governor's nephews changed their name to Lumbroso. One of these was Joseph Lumbroso, also known as Luis de carvajal el mozo, who is said to have circumcised himself in the desert to conform to Jewish law. His memoirs, letters and inquisition record survive. Two other nephews also changed their names to Lumbroso and became famous rabbis in Italy.
During the time in which Governor Carvajal was in office, the city of Monterrey became a target of migration by other crypto-Jews feeling the pressure of the Mexican Inquisition in the south. Thus, the story of Nuevo León and the founding of Monterrey is significant for openly concentrating a crypto-Jewish community from all parts of Mexico. Such Jewish communities did not exist in Mexico until the immigration of Ashkenazi communities in the late 1800s and 1900s.
In the former Spanish-held Southwestern United States, some Hispanic Roman Catholics have stated a belief that they are descended from crypto-Jews and have started practicing Judaism. They often cite as evidence memories of older relatives practicing Jewish traditions. Skeptics of the authenticity of the Jewish ancestry of Latinos of the Southwest argue that these remembered traditions could be those of Ashkenazi, not Sephardi, Jews and may possibly be constructed memories due to suggestion by proponents. It is also argued that the Jewish traditions practiced by older relatives were introduced by groups of Evangelical Protestant Christians who purposely acquired and employed Jewish traditions as part of their religious practices.
In northern Mexico, Monterrey, the capital city of the state of Nuevo León, that shares a border with Texas, is said to contain descendants of Crypto-Jews. Monterrey was founded by Luis Carvajal y de la Cueva who although had converted to Roman Catholicism, in 1590 was accused by the Spanish Inquisition of backsliding. It was officially found that members of his extended family had reverted to Judaism and he was exiled from the territory then known as New Spain. A portion of his extended family was executed as relapsed conversos in Mexico City in 1596. They included most of the original settlers of Monterrey.
The state of Jalisco also has several cities with large numbers of Anusim, mainly Guadalajara, Ciudad Guzman, and Puerto Vallarta, although a steady influx of Ashkenazi Jews from Eastern Europe during the late 1800s and early to mid-1900s into Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Veracruz is also widely known.
Today, there are about 40,000 Mexican Jews, both Ashkenazi and Sephardi. Researchers and historians say that number would rise considerably if Anusim (or Crypto-Jews) were included in those estimates.
In addition to these communities, other now Roman Catholic-professing communities descendants of Crypto-Jews are also said to exist in Cuba, Puerto Ricoand amidst the populations of various other Spanish-speaking countries of South America (Argentina, Venezuela, Chile and Ecuador). From these communities comes the proverb, "Catholic by faith, Jewish by blood".
All the above localities were former territories of either the Spanish or Portuguese Empires, where the Inquisition eventually followed and continued investigating Crypto-Jews who had settled there, and where it endured for longer than it had in Spain itself.

Agnosticism (Greek: α- a-, without + γνώσις gnōsis, knowledge; after Gnosticism) is the philosophical view that the truth value of certain claims — particularly metaphysical claims regarding theology, afterlife or the existence of God , gods, deities, ghosts or even ultimate reality — is unknown or, depending on the form of agnosticism, inherently impossible to prove or disprove.
Demographic research services normally list agnostics in the same category as atheists and non-religious people, using 'agnostic' in the sense of 'noncommittal'. However, this can be misleading given the existence of agnostic theists, who identify themselves as both agnostics in the original sense and followers of a particular religion.
Philosophers and thinkers who have written about agnosticism include Thomas Henry Huxley, Robert G. Ingersoll, and Bertrand Russell. Religious scholars who wrote about agnosticism are Peter Kreeft, Blaise Pascal and Joseph Ratzinger, later elected as Pope Benedict XVI.
Early Christian church leaders used the Greek word gnosis (knowledge) to describe "spiritual knowledge." Agnosticism is not to be confused with religious views opposing the doctrine of gnosis and Gnosticism—these are religious concepts that are not generally related to agnosticism. Huxley used the term in a broad sense.
In recent years, use of the word to mean "not knowable" is apparent in scientific literature in psychology and neuroscience, and with a meaning close to "independent", in technical and marketing literature, e.g. "platform agnostic" or "hardware agnostic".
Many mainstream believers in the West embrace an agnostic stance. As noted below, for instance, Roman Catholic dogma about the nature of God contains many strictures of agnosticism. An agnostic who believes in God despairs of ever fully comprehending what it is in which he believes. But some believing agnostics assert that very absurdity strengthens their belief rather than weakens it.
The Catholic Church sees merit in examining what it calls Partial Agnosticism, specifically those systems that "do not aim at constructing a complete philosophy of the Unknowable, but at excluding special kinds of truth, notably religious, from the domain of knowledge. However, the Church is historically opposed to a full denial of the ability of human reason to know God. The Council of the Vatican, relying on biblical scripture, declares that "God, the beginning and end of all, can, by the natural light of human reason, be known with certainty from the works of creation" (Const. De Fide, II, De Rev.)
Among the most famous agnostics (in the original sense) have been Thomas Henry Huxley, Robert G. Ingersoll and Bertrand Russell.
Agnostic views are as old as philosophical skepticism, but the terms agnostic and agnosticism were created by Huxley to sum up his thoughts on contemporary developments of metaphysics about the "unconditioned" (Hamilton) and the "unknowable" (Herbert Spencer). It is important, therefore, to discover Huxley's own views on the matter. Though Huxley began to use the term "agnostic" in 1869, his opinions had taken shape some time before that date. In a letter of September 23, 1860, to Charles Kingsley, Huxley discussed his views extensively:
And again, to the same correspondent, May 6, 1863:
Of the origin of the name agnostic to describe this attitude, Huxley gave the following account:
Huxley's agnosticism is believed to be a natural consequence of the intellectual and philosophical conditions of the 1860s, when clerical intolerance was trying to suppress scientific discoveries which appeared to clash with a literal reading of the Book of Genesis and other established Jewish and Christian doctrines. Agnosticism should not, however, be confused with natural theology, deism, pantheism, or other science positive forms of theism.
By way of clarification, Huxley states, "In matters of the intellect, follow your reason as far as it will take you, without regard to any other consideration. And negatively: In matters of the intellect, do not pretend that conclusions are certain which are not demonstrated or demonstrable" (Huxley, Agnosticism, 1889). While A. W. Momerie has noted that this is nothing but a definition of honesty, Huxley's usual definition goes beyond mere honesty to insist that these metaphysical issues are fundamentally unknowable.
Robert G. Ingersoll, an Illinois lawyer and politician who evolved into a well-known and sought-after orator in 19th century America, has been referred to as the "Great Agnostic."
In an 1896 lecture titled Why I Am An Agnostic, Ingersoll related why he was an agnostic:
In the conclusion of the speech he simply sums up the agnostic position as:
Bertrand Russell's pamphlet, Why I Am Not a Christian, based on a speech delivered in 1927 and later included in a book of the same title, is considered a classic statement of agnosticism. The essay briefly lays out Russell's objections to some of the arguments for the existence of God before discussing his moral objections to Christian teachings. He then calls upon his readers to "stand on their own two feet and look fair and square at the world," with a "fearless attitude and a free intelligence."
In 1939, Russell gave a lecture on The existence and nature of God, in which he characterized himself as an agnostic. He said:
However, later in the same lecture, discussing modern non-anthropomorphic concepts of God, Russell states:
In Russell's 1947 pamphlet, Am I An Atheist Or An Agnostic? (subtitled A Plea For Tolerance In The Face Of New Dogmas), he ruminates on the problem of what to call himself:
In his 1953 essay, What Is An Agnostic? Russell states:
However, later in the essay, Russell says:
Religious scholars, whether Jewish, Muslim or Christian, affirm the possibility of knowledge, even of metaphysical realities such as God and the soul, because human intelligence ("intus", within and "legere", to read) has the power to reach the essence and existence of things since it has a non-material, spiritual element. They affirm that "not being able to see or hold some specific thing does not necessarily negate its existence," as in the case of gravity, entropy, mental telepathy, or reason and thought.
According to these scholars, agnosticism is impossible in actual practice, since one either lives as if God did not exist (etsi Deus non daretur), or lives as if God did exist (etsi Deus daretur). These scholars believe that each day in a person's life is an unavoidable step towards death, and thus not to decide for or against God, the all-encompassing foundation, purpose, meaning of life, is to decide in favor of atheism. Even if there were truly no evidence for God, Christian philosopher Blaise Pascal offered to agnostics what is known as Pascal's Wager: the infinite expected value of acknowledging God is always greater than the expected value of not acknowledging his existence, and thus it is a safer "bet" to choose God.
These religious scholars argue that God has placed in his creation much evidence of his existence, and continues to personally speak to humans. Peter Kreeft and Ronald Tacelli write about a strong, cumulative case with their 20 rational arguments for God's existence. And, these scholars state, when agnostics demand from God that he proves his existence through laboratory testing, they are asking God, a superior being, to become man's servant.
According to Joseph Ratzinger later elected as Pope Benedict XVI, agnosticism, more specifically strong agnosticism, is a self-limitation of reason that contradicts itself when it acclaims the power of science to know the truth. When reason imposes limits on itself on matters of religion and ethics, this leads to dangerous pathologies of religion and pathologies of science, such as destruction of humans and ecological disasters. "Agnosticism," said Ratzinger, "is always the fruit of a refusal of that knowledge which is in fact offered to man... The knowledge of God has always existed." Agnosticism, stated Ratzinger, is a choice of comfort, pride, dominion, and utility over truth, and is opposed by the following attitudes: the keenest self-criticism, humble listening to the whole of existence, the persistent patience and self-correction of the scientific method, and a readiness to be purified by the truth.

Seriously, he doesn't, though the word seems to be that he does.
According to a few Twitter feeds captured by eagle eyed fans, Kamiya has been quoted as being somewhat indifferent to the new take on Dante that developer Ninja Theory has taken saying "Whatever. RT @Solivagant @PG_kamiya #DmC, by Ninja Theory? Do you think they will "evolve" the action game from your Bayonetta standard?". As soon as that hit the 'net, it stoked the still burning embers of fan rage over Ninja Theory's new direction in debate over he meant by it.
But a follow-up series of Tweets by Kamiya and posted at Platinum Games' official forums had indicated a wholly different meaning to what was said, tweeting "Hello all foreign fans. Recently I got lots of comments like "Dante has changed", and someone said I was not too fond of newest Dante. But it's not true."
He went on to say ""Dante has changed"…that's right. But from my point of view Dante has changed every time the sequel came out, and he was always different from whom I created first." Elaborating further, he tweeted "But for me,Dante is the only one, the original one. RT @alessandro_r2 @PG_kamiya I think the "problem" with the new Dante is: It's NOT Dante".
He finishes with a few more tweets saying "It may be totally new.No one knows. RT @didyourikeit @PG_kamiya if there was a need in changing the character, why not make a whole new game" and ends with "But I was trying to release DMC as Resident evil 4 first… RT @didyourikeit @PG_kamiya I meant as in not using the DMC name.".
So it sounds to me like a man who wants Ninja Theory's game to stand out on its own than follow something that is already out there…just as he once did himself. It's funny how some things get lost in translation.

Despite a 3-0 loss, the Wilson College field hockey team displayed a solid effort against a tough Stevenson University field hockey team. Wilson played the Mustangs competitively throughout the entire 70 minutes of play.
Wilson was not able to score any goals in the contest, but they hung with the Mustangs offensively, tallying 10 shots to Stevenson's 12 shots. Wilson continued to put pressure on the Stevenson defense, but unfortunately came up empty. Stevenson earned three goals of their own and was able to sneak past Wilson's aggressive defense.
Wilson outshot Stevenson and was able to tie them in penalty corners in the second half of the game. Seniors Megan Schneck and Victoria Whitbred, junior Hillary Swartz, and freshman Megan Sterling recorded two shots apiece in the game. Sophomore goalkeeper Gina Weigold totaled four saves.
The team will travel to Frostburg University on Tuesday, September 17th for a 7:00pm game.

Part 2 Sometimes you need to jump right into the deep end of the pool instead of gradually wading in from the shallow side. Having touched on the rebirth of Tony Rose's '68 Karma Camaro in our last issue, it was obvious we'd be back with much more to tell. The deeper Peter Newell and his team at Competition Specialties in Walpole, Massachusetts, dug into the car, the more shoddy bodywork they found. Almost like a headline from a supermarket tabloid exposing dirty little secrets, every body panel brought out uglier truths to the table. You'll recall from the last issue, the team spent a good amount of time removing poorly-applied seam sealer where the rear quarter and upper rear outer body panels met. Well, acting on a hunch and feeling that there was more evil lurking beneath the paint surface of the car, Newell stripped the entire body and came across a number of additional issues -all bad.
When the rear quarters of the car were originally replaced, reproduction skins were used, however, their installation left a lot to be desired. If not properly fitted, the panels can create more trouble than expected. And in the case of Rose's car, the ill-fitting panels resulted in the previous shop using an over abundance of plastic body filler to make up for the difference, creating a mess in the meantime. Hearing from Newell regarding the car's latest woes, Tony wasted no time in contacting Classic Industries (www.classicindustries.com) to order a pair of their complete reproduction rear quarter-panels. The beauty of the Classic Industries panels is that they are exact replacements for the original factory sheetmetal, including the full doorjamb area and sail panel. Knowing that there were additional issues with the remaining sheetmetal on the rear of the car, Rose also ordered a pair of outer wheelhouse panels, an upper rear outer body panel, and rear body panel. Once the new panels arrived, it was time for team member Brian Jordan to get busy working his magic.
A veteran of countless body restorations, Jordan mapped out his path and readied the car for a serious sheetmetal makeover. This process takes a good amount of time and requires close attention to detail, but it will be worth it as the finished product will give Rose's '68 new life and a solid foundation that will last for years to come.
So, follow along as Jordan demonstrates how to remove some poorly-installed body panels and unwanted amounts of body filler in exchange for properly-installed sheetmetal and bodywork done the right way.
Once again, a special thanks goes out to the team at Competition Specialties as they wrapped it all up using top-notch skills and great products-a winning combination that will make the car stand out among the rest.
In the next issue we'll dive into some more sheetmetal work and show you how to install a new aftermarket, performance front subframe.
Things change, especially when Peter Newell of Competition Specialties is seeking perfection. Since we last left off, the team suspected certain evil lurking under the gloss of the remainder of Rose's Camaro, so they decided to strip the entire car. They were horrified with what was found.
Closer inspection proved that, although the rear quarter-panels had previously been replaced, they were cut short at the sail panel and doorjamb area, making the replacement a mess and something that needed correcting.

POTENTIALLY deadly blue-green algae has been found on Windermere.
The Environment Agency says it has found evidence of an algal bloom at Low Wray Bay, prompting South Lakeland District Council to issue a warning.
The authority said anyone using lakes, rivers and reservoirs should treat all blue-green algae blooms with caution and contact should be avoided as skin rashes and illness may occur if the water is swallowed.
Farmers and pet owners should also prevent livestock and animals coming into contact or drinking the affected water, as it can sometimes prove fatal for animals.
SLDC's environmental health team leader, Tracy Howard, said: "Blue-green algae can potentially make people feel quite ill if swallowed or even by just swimming in it.
"We just want people to be aware of the affects and are asking people to be extra careful and vigilant when using the lakes and rivers for recreational purposes during the summer months.
"The public should observe any notices near affected areas and avoid contact or drinking the water."
Many waters are vulnerable to problems with the algae, typically between June and November.
Experts say all blue-green algal blooms should be assumed to be toxic.
The blooms vary in colour from discoloured green, blue-green, greenish brown, or reddish brown.
Further information about blue-green algae can be found on the Environment Agency's website at www.environment-agency.gov.uk

Some of our most popular and playful pieces are those of Meerkat sculpture. There is just something about the way these joyful animals are sculpted that just make you want to take them home and give them a place of honor in your yard. A very popular piece is The Meerkat Clan Statue. Here are three members of the clan posing on a large piece of tree branch as if they were posing for a family portrait. They are lovingly hand painted and totally adorable.
In many of our blog posts we have mentioned the Big Foot garden statue in relation to other extraordinary statues that we have, but this one is all about him. Our piece, Big Foot, the Garden Yeti Statue: Large, is a Design Toscano exclusive and this is the only place you will find him. While the rest of the world goes searching for the Yeti, you can have a sculpture of him in your yard that is over 2 ft. tall. Like all of our exclusives he is finely detailed and of course, hand painted.
When we say we have sculptures for outside don't think that it just means the average Greek gods and wonderful fountains (although we have many of these). We also like to think a little bit out of the box and so we bring to you our Polly in Paradise Parrot Sculpture on Ring Perch: Large. If you want to give a tropical touch to your yard or patio, Polly is just the thing. She is 17 ½ in. tall and swings from her own perch. Finely detailed in designer resin, she is hand painted in all the tropical colors.

The Mississippi State Bulldogs look to get back to being more consistent in the red zone on the offensive side of the ball.
Today, No. 22 (Associated Press) MSU (7-2 overall, 3-2 Southeastern Conference) must do it against a very tough LSU Tiger's defense.
The No. 9 (Associated Press) Tigers (7-2, 3-2) host the Bulldogs at 6 p.m. at Tiger Stadium. The game can be seen on ESPN.
In the past two games, Mississippi State has struggled to score once it got in the red zone. Both games were losses for the Bulldogs.
"Some games we've been good, (and) some games we've been poor," MSU head coach Dan Mullen said. "Overall, it's your game execution. There's a couple of games we've been excellent in the red zone both sides of the ball. A couple of games we've been poor. To me, it is a lack of consistency. That's what I'd attribute it to, and we have to be more consistent."
The Bulldogs are coming off of two-straight losses. Bouncing back is something that Mullen looks at as a being something to do from week-to-week in the Southeastern Conference.
"You understand when you're in this conference that it is the bouncing-back week after week, whether you win or lose," Mullen said. "(It's) the quality of the opponent you're playing week-in and week-out. (In) a lot of leagues, there's one or two big games a year. In this league, every week seems to be that way."
LSU head coach Les Miles and his Tigers are coming off a 21-17 loss to top-ranked Alabama. Miles believes that Mississippi State is a good test for his team after the emotional lost to the Tide.
"Our team recognizes that Mississippi State is a very capable football team," Miles said. "We are looking forward to playing them. It is a very quality opponent beyond the Alabama game. Our team needs to play a team that has the ability."
Mullen and the Bulldogs are looking to earn some respect with a win and close the gap between themselves and the top teams in the SEC West.
"Our kids go play hard and they take this on as a big challenge," Mullen said. "We still haven't closed the gap where I want. We still haven't come up with a win. We still have to take that next step to finally push us over the top to get a win against LSU.
The Bulldogs haven't beaten the Tigers since 1999 and haven't won a game in Baton Rouge since 1991.
The Tigers have struggled on offense this season, but they found a spark against Alabama last week.
LSU picked up 435 yards and gained 22 first downs against the Tide. Quarterback Zach Mettenberger completed 24-of-35 passes for 298 yards and one touchdown.
"(Mettenberger) played his best game of the season in his most critical moment," MSU defensive coordinator Chris Wilson said. "He made some throws and they were more prevalent. He had to throw the ball more. When he went out there and let it fly, he was pretty efficient."
The Bulldogs offense has started slow in the last two losses. They have been unable to finish drives as well as start drives.
"More consistent execution of plays is what it comes down to on both sides of the ball," Mullen said. "We have to execute cleaner on both sides of the ball. We made some plays (if) you look in the first half (of the Texas A&M game), but there always seems to be mistakes that jump up, and that's what slows you down."View more articles in:

A line of water bottles warding off animal spirits. An abandoned theater in the red-light district. The world's most dangerous fish on a chef's cutting board.
In Summer 2012, a group of Photocommunications students traveled to Japan under the guidance of Professor Joe Vitone. While there, they put their cameras to work documenting a topic of their choosing. The resulting projects are as diverse and varied as the individuals behind the lenses.
We've asked four students to tell us about their time in Beppu, Japan. View a narrated slideshow of each of their favorite photos and hear them describe the experiences in their own words.

Norwegian browser maker Opera Software has filed suit against Trond Werner Hansen, one of its former developers, alleging that Hansen took trade secrets with him when he went to work with Opera rival Mozilla.
[..] Hansen worked at Opera from 1999 through 2006. There he led design and UI development, first for the Windows version of the Opera browser, then for the cross-platform Desktop version. He later returned as an independent consultant from 2009 to 2010, at Opera's request.
Then in 2012, Hansen began to work with the Mozilla Foundation, makers of the open source Firefox browser – and that's when things got dicey.
According to Opera, Hansen's contributions to Mozilla projects included Opera trade secrets, and the company is now suing Hansen for 20m Norwegian kroner ($3.4m/£2.2) in damages as a result.
Hansen discusses "Junior", Mozilla's experimental browser for the iPad, which features a stripped-down UI that lacks many of the traditional UI controls found in browsers for desktop platforms. Superficially, at least, Junior appears to incorporate many ideas that Hansen advocated while at Opera, where for many years he maintained that the Opera browser's UI was too heavy and needed to be simplified. But Hansen argues that these are simply his own ideas about UI design and usability, and not any kind of intellectual property to which Opera could lay claim.
Hansen told the paper that he first learned of Opera's lawsuit in the summer of 2012, when he was living in New York City and pursuing a music career. Now those plans have been put on hold, he says, and he has been forced to return to Norway, where he lives with friends and family and has been selling off assets to support himself.
[..] a hearing on the matter is scheduled for late August 2013.
Source (El Reg)
Seriously? What trade secrets, crackpots? Neither there are any secrets nor Opera has anything special to trade, given that their market share is a 1% flatline at best and a rounding error at worst, and for a good reason. Looks like the biggest crybabies of Microsoft Browser Ballot kaboodle need some new office chairs or whatever is that Google won't gladly pay for. I somehow doubt that even if Hansen stole their whole source code and handed over to Mitchell Baker in person, he doesn't have those asked millions anyway, so it's all a lost cause to begin with. Norway must be the home of the original, non-proverbial trolls for a reason...

DES MOINES, Iowa - Talk about feeling your oats. An unidentified, jubilant group of 20 shipping department co-workers at the Quaker Oats plant in Cedar Rapids on Wednesday claimed their shares of a $241 million Powerball jackpot – the largest lottery prize won in Iowa since the state lottery's inception in 1985.
The 18 men and two women, who won as "The Shipping 20" trust and did not make public their last names, not only established themselves as first on the list of Iowa Lottery jackpot winners. But they were expected to become the first to take legal steps to keep their full names from being publicly divulged – a position which is allowed under Iowa's open records law but one that had lottery officials and news organizations in disagreement.
All but two of the winners led an entourage of nearly 50 people via charter bus to the lottery headquarters to validate their winning ticket and lay claim to a lump-sum award of $160.3 million, which whittled down to $112.2 million once $48.1 million in federal and state taxes were deducted – leaving each winning trust member with about $5.6 million.
The group's spokesman, Al, 61, said he bought tickets on behalf of the employees who have pooled their resources for a decade or so to buy $100 worth of Powerball tickets whenever the jackpot would exceed $150 million.
"A lot of times we get nothing," Al said, "but not this time" chimed in a happy co-worker before they received a ceremonial over-sized check bearing the jackpot amount. The winners also were showered with mini, fake $100 bills shot from confetti cannons as part of the lottery celebration that included the playing of a song entitled "I'm Calling in Rich" composed for the winners by Cedar Rapids co-worker David Bosier. -CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO THE SONG-
At least 11 of the winners – who wore blue "You're looking at a winner" t-shirts and ranged in age from 35 to 64 years -- indicated they would retire from their jobs now that they have become instant multimillionaires. The 20 winners all live in and around Cedar Rapids, are long-time employees of the Quaker Oats plant, and are members of Local 110 of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union/United Food and Commercial Workers International Union whose job is to ship out boxes of cereal from the plant.
Lawyers for the trust informed lottery officials on Tuesday that the members of The Shipping 20 trust, which was organized in Linn County District Court, want their individual names to remain confidential and intend to request an injunction to keep that information private.
Joe Day, a Cedar Rapids attorney representing the trust, said "I think we'll be fairly successful" in getting court approval to keep the winners' names confidential.
"It was their request. I'm their lawyer, I follow their request. They didn't want their last names made known. That's their choice. This is still a free country, for awhile anyway."
During a televised news conference with the winners, Al said the winners want to maintain some privacy and avoid some of the negative trappings that go along with winning a large lottery prize. Others said people who viewed Wednesday's event will recognize them so friends, family members and others already know their identities.
"Obviously, we don't want people knocking at our doors. We're common people, simple people. We don't want the limelight. I don't want this, but I'm here," Al told reporters.
Iowa Lottery chief executive officer Terry Rich said his agency believes the names are public and should be disclosed, but understanding the specifics of the law, the lottery has agreed to give the group 10 business days to seek an injunction.
"To my knowledge, this is the first time we've had this request," said Rich, who called the issue a "gray area" in Iowa law. "We read it as it's open and the information is available unless a court says separately."
Requests for release of the names were made by at least two newspapers after Wednesday's announcement.
Lottery spokeswoman Mary Neubauer said the lottery took its position after consulting with the Iowa Attorney General's Office.
"I think in this age of social media anybody understands that people might have a concern about the information being out there," she said. "However, the law says that lottery winner's information is public."
Molly Juffernbruch, vice president and general counsel for the Iowa Lottery, said lottery official needs a petition on file by July 6 or they will release the names. If petition is filed, it will be up to a judge to decide if the names will be made public or kept sealed.
WATCH: Powerball Winner Press Conference
Group members laughed Wednesday that their purchase of the winning ticket at a Cedar Rapids grocery store last week was the worst-kept secret in Iowa as word of their win spread like wildfire -- first through the Quaker Oats Co. plant in downtown Cedar Rapids where they worked and then nearly as quickly through the community.
Mike, 55, who has worked at Quaker for nearly 35 years, said he initially was deluged with text messages from family and friends. "I just went in shock," he said. "But I made it through," noting that he plans to keep working and will take some time before he makes any big decisions.
"I think it makes my kids be debt-free and that was my main goal," he said.
Kelly, 54, noted that the group bought the winning tickets four years to the day that a record flood reached its crest as it ravaged downtown Cedar Rapids and temporarily shut down the Quaker plant. They expressed appreciation Wednesday that the plant was able to reopen
Denise, 52, has worked at the plant for nearly 34 years, and said The Shipping 20 has a combined seniority of 686 years at Quaker Oats.
"I'm just such in a fog, it's hard to describe everything," she said. "I'm shaking. It's hard to wrap your head around." Denise said she planned to use her winnings to help her adult children. She said her husband also is a member of the group and his last day at the plant is Friday.
Officials with RWDSU Local 110 in Cedar Rapids issued a statement Wednesday saying the lottery winners are considering positive ways to contribute to their union family and community initiatives that will benefit local residents.
"The union has stood up for us, on and off the job, and brought us together as one family. We've been through a lot together, especially since the flood of 2008 and this has given us a renewed appreciation for our union values," one of the Powerball winners and a long-time Quaker plant worker was quoted as saying in the union news release.
"These guys have worked very hard for many years, and they want to use their good fortune to make life better for others at the plant and in their community. This is a great American story but also a great union story. These are some of the most decent and generous people you'll ever meet, and all of our members couldn't be happier for them," Al Hartl Jr., president of RWDSU Local 110, said in the statement.
During Wednesday's celebration, lottery played a song entitled "I'm Calling in Rich" Neubauer said that a Cedar Rapids co-worker told lottery officials he had composed a song entitled "I'm Calling in Rich" in honor of the winners. She said the group told her they would pool their money and buy Powerball tickets together, but only when the jackpots got above $100 million.

Pulitzer Prize, Biography/Autobiography, 1993
Hailed by critics as an American masterpiece, David McCullough's sweeping biography of Harry S. Truman captured the heart of the nation. The life and times of the 33rd president of the United States, Truman provides a deeply moving look at an extraordinary, singular American.
From Truman's small-town, turn-of-the-century boyhood and his transforming experience in the face of war in 1918, to his political beginnings in the powerful Pendergast machine and his rapid rise to prominence in the U.S. Senate, McCullough shows a man of uncommon vitality and strength of character.
Here too is a telling account of Truman's momentous decision to use the atomic bomb and the weighty responsibilities that he was forced to confront on the dawning of a new age.
Distinguished historian and Pulitzer-Prize-winning author David McCullough tells one of the greatest American stories in this stirring audio adaptation of Truman - a compelling, classic portrait of a life that shaped history.
©2011 Simon & Schuster (P)2003 David McCullough
"McCullough's marvelous feel for history is based on an appreciation of colorful tales and an insight intopersonalities. In this compelling saga of America's greatest common-man president, McCullough adds luster to an old-fashioned historical approach.... the sweeping narrative, filled with telling details and an appreciation of the role individuals play in shaping the world." (Walter Isaacson, Time)
"McCullough is a master storyteller whose considerable narrative skills have been put to exquisite use in re-creating the life and times of America's 33rd president." (Robert Dallek, Los Angeles Times Book Review)
"Perhaps the highest tribute one can pay a biographer is to say that through him one comes to know his subject almost as though in person. In fostering the reader's acquaintance with Harry Truman, not once does McCullough get in the way. This is in every respect a splendid work." (Myron A. Marty, St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
My husband has the hard copy of this book -- 949 pages! I was a bit concerned about the length, but despite some unnecessary detail in part one, the book is fascinating. You really feel that you know where this man comes from as the narration unfolds.
I shared the common misconception of Truman's being a dull nebbish. Far from it, like Lincoln, he was a fascinating combination of dirt farmer and intellectual, with a ramrod sense of right and wrong -- a basically decent person. He was not charismatic, but honed his political skills in the machine politics of Missouri before winning his seat in the US senate. He also loved classical music and opera and had considered a career as concert pianist, he played so well. He lived in a fascinating era... succeeding FDR as the second world war wound down, and making some very big decisions such as dropping the atom bomb and our participation in the Korean war.
It's easy to regret these decisions in hindsight. McCullough is mostly non-judgemental, successfully recreating the concerns and zeitgeist of the era, and painting a portrait of a guy of very modest beginnings who rose to meet the challenges of his offices and era. The author does an excellent job, covering Potsdam, McCarthyism, General MacArthur's fall, and the isolationism and demagoguery of the Republican party among many other events.
I'm afraid Nelson Runger is not my favorite narrator. His style is slightly pompous and a bit labored. Ironically, this tone sounds like forties and fifties radio and TV voices, so maybe it's just right. To his credit, he does not mis-pronounce words like so many younger narrators. But the book is well worth a listen and is a great introduction to that era.
"Well worth the 50+ hours"
I loved listening to this book. Being in my mid 50's I always heard from my parents what a dope Truman was. WRONG! Truman was actually a pretty good President and as honest as they come. The USA was lucky to have him. Fantastic narration as well and the story flows as only McCullough can do. A+++ IMHO
An amazing look into just about every detail of Truman's life. My only POSSIBLE criticism is that the description of the whistle stop campaign could have used one or two fewer stops (at least in the book). Still, a wonderful biography and worth every minute.
"Very good"
This is probably the best biography of Truman out there. In it you not only learn about Truman's presidency but other events going on during his lifetime. My only complaint is that I would have liked it to have covered a little more of Truman's life before the presidency. Overall, it is very informative and well written.
"The last of the baby boom generation"
As a student of history, I found this audio book valuable.
I have listened to Churchills history of WWII and it helps bring all elements together.
A very important transition in American History. A man one generation removed from the frontier confronted with world changing events. The Atom bomb...etc. partner with Churchill to help save the world. Great history, I truly enjoyed all 50 hours of it.
One of the best.
Flight Behavior. A fiction story, but it also was gripping from beginning to end.
The story was fascinating. It was told in great detail. I had difficulty turning it off. I kept putting off chores so I could free up time to listen. The story was captivating and told so well.
I strongly recommend this book especially for history buffs.
"Tells loike an adventure story!"
This is the book that got me excited about history. I was born in 1953, and, hadn't heard about Mr. Truman in school. So to me it is like listening to a great adventure. The story is not new but, to hear how it all unfolded is facinating. This is history come alive and the listener is truly, "A fly on the wall watching as it all came to pass.
"A Fascinating Story and Man"
The story of Abraham Lincoln is very similar to that of Truman...from the point of view of his humble beginnings to the path to the presidency.
Nelson brings the characters to life, by changing his voice inflection for each person, singing, and creating an experience that puts you into the story.
No...it's too long and complicated. However, I found myself looking for times to be alone so I could listen to it. Very well done!
"Truman biography is a winner"
This book is by David McCullough. Anyone who has read any of his books know that in itself is a treat. But Truman's straight talk mirrors many of the messages that resound in our own time. We can learn from him even half a century later. Would that there were more people in Washington like him today. Everyone should listen to this book to get a glimpse of a politician who had a strong set of values.
The story of being catapulted into the presidency during World War II was particularly interesting.
"Fantastic & Interesting"
David McCullough gives life to all the historical figures he writes about, Truman is no different.
