Valve Already Working On Steam For Linux?
Information found by a reader on the Phoronix Internet page in the Microsoft game Left 4 Dead, appears to suggest that Half Life developer Valve Software, is currently working on a Linux client for its commercial platform Steam.
According to Phoronix, the demo version of the game contained various Linux libraries, including one called, "steamclient_linux.so" which Phronox says can do without either the Windows client or the Linux server version. In the meantime, the Left 4 Dead demo in question has disappeared from Valve's servers, and the full version of the action game appears to have no trace of the Linux data.
Valve uses its Steam platform to mainly market its own games, with an increasing amount of games coming from third party producers. Beyond that, Valve provides easy maintenance and enables communication between gamers. Valve's legal restrictions require registration before games can be activated and access to Steam is via a special client that at present is only available for Windows. A conversion to Linux would be the first sign that Steam in future might be offering (commercial) Linux games on its platform.
The rumors have been strengthened by two recent official announcements. Firstly, on its employment opportunities page, Valve Software advertised a vacancy for a software developer with Linux experience, able to "port Windows-based games to the Linux platform." Then in May this year, Running With Scissors CEO, Vince Desiderio, announced in an interview that the third part of the game series Postal would also run on Linux. The game itself is built on the Valve Source engine, as are a multitude of other games. Linux compatibility of the Valve engine could mean that soon a huge number of popular games will be available to Linux users.
Valve has not yet made any official comments about its Linux ambitions. If Steam can or will provide Linux users with high quality games in the future, remains to be seen.

We typically see photovoltaic panels up on roofs, as they're broad, open surfaces that receive a lot of sunlight. You know what else spends a lot of time in the scorching sun, though? Sidewalks. With that in mind, a team at Washington DC's The George Washington University has created what is claimed to be "the first walkable solar-paneled pathway in the world."

An Island (Tokelau) Powered 100% by Solar Energy
Some of the most vulnerable places in the world to live in the face of climate change are islands. Rising sea levels, contaminated ground water, and increasing severity of storms are just some of the many threats to island communities. Many island residents also pay extremely high energy prices, due to limited domestic resources and the need to import fuel long distances. Switching to renewable energy can not only decrease fuel expenditures for many island populations, but can also show the world what can be done in the face of climate change.
New California Law Will Help Expand Solar Deployment
WASHINGTON, D.C. – SEIA President and CEO Rhone Resch released the following statement today after California Gov. Jerry Brown signed landmark energy legislation AB 327 into law:
Solar Energy Non-Profit Delivers Alternative Energy to Low-Income Neighborhoods
Residential solar power has become increasingly affordable over the past few years as an environmentally friendly, cost-saving alternative to traditionally sources of energy. But the barriers to entry can still be too high for low-income communities, which is where solar non-profits like GRID Alternatives come in.

In Japan, new policy spurs solar power boom
Across Japan, technology firms and private investors are racing to install devices that until recently they had little interest in: solar panels. Massive solar parks are popping up by the dozen, and companies are mounting panels atop warehouse and factory rooftops as part of a rapid buildup that one developer likened to an "explosion."
Our opinion: Green in Massachusetts
Massachusetts' second-in-the-nation ranking in clean technology is a tribute to the green energy policies the state has implemented and encouraged over the last several years. As environmental concerns grow along with the perils of global warming, those policies will pay greater dividends -- as long as the state doesn't stray from that path.
America's Energy Future Beyond Oil And Gas

Very disappointing
By Elle
from Ottawa, ON
I found the cream liquidy, in fact very much so. Not pleasant, when I first removed the seal, the cream was flowing on my dress. It is always my aim to buy Canadian but will not buy Kalaya again. It was my first time and will be the last time. Very disappointed!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The jury's out for me on this product
By DodieKing
from Calgary, Alberta
1. Use the product for foot care. No scent and can use for hypo allergic reasons. Am diabetic so wanted to see about its use for my feet.2. Too liquidity for me and messy. I thought that it would be a cream that I could use but it was a liquid and ended up with it all over my hands. Not able to apply to feet.3. Price was very good and The Shopping Channel has a good return policy.4. Overall will pass.

Watered Down Version
By L
from Toronto
I used to love this lotion. It used to have a creamy texture to it, but now it pours out like water, which causes you to use way to much. I hope they bring back the original formula. It was the best footcream (when it was a cream) that I have found to work on dry feet. Now it is so-so.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Apollo Group Inc. /quotes/zigman/57542/delayed/quotes/nls/apol APOL -0.47% shares fell as much as 11% to $18.65 Wednesday as investors reacted to the company's weaker earnings outlook in the face of further enrollment declines. The for-profit educator, which operates the University of Phoenix, released its fiscal first-quarter results after the close Tuesday. It reported adjusted earnings of $1.22 a share, which beat the 90-cent consensus among analysts polled by FactSet. But revenue fell nearly 11% to $1.06 billion and enrollment fell 14%, a third consecutive quarterly decline, prompting the company to cut its full-year operating earnings outlook to $500 million to $550 million from its previous estimate of $525 million to $575 million. Apollo shares have fallen 67% over the past 12 months.

We really appreciate any help!

We can likely find an overnight in Memphis area.

Did you know?
Experiencing one of the world's highest cervical cancer burdens, Tanzania has the highest prevalence rate of cervical cancer in East Africa with approximately 33% of women at risk. In 2009, cervical cancer accounted for more than a third of all cancer patients seen at Ocean Roads Cancer Institute, the country's leading cancer treatment facility. The vast majority of patients are seen during the late stages of the disease, which considerably reduces the chances of survival. This problem is compounded by the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Tanzania. Being HIV positive increases the risk of developing cervical cancer by at least 50% as well as an earlier onset of the disease by 10 years.
IMA is partnering with Shirati KMT Hospital to roll out a pilot program to improve access to quality cervical cancer care and treatment services in the Mara Region. IMA is addressing training needs in early diagnosis and treatment in order to successfully screen women. In addition, IMA is working with the Shirati KMT Hospital to build community awareness of cervical cancer risks and successful treatment results to promote screening and treatment.
IMA is training health care workers in cervical cancer screening techniques using the visual inspection with acetic acid approach. Women with positive results are counseled and provided Cryotherapy treatment. Health care workers have also been trained on providing the appropriate referrals as necessary. IMA also collaborates with the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare in the development of national Information, Education and Communication materials to raise community awareness of the importance of cervical cancer screenings and early treatment.
Although the project is still in its infancy, accomplishments include:

BUY PREMARIN NO PRESCRIPTION, I have a love-hate affair with church cookbooks. On the one hand, purchase PREMARIN online, PREMARIN results, I love the mix of traditional and modern dishes, and mostly, PREMARIN canada, mexico, india, PREMARIN over the counter, I love the blatant disregard for healthiness. On the other, PREMARIN online cod, Purchase PREMARIN online no prescription, I hate the blatant disregard for healthiness. Perhaps, PREMARIN schedule, Buy cheap PREMARIN, the point is the foodstuffs are made for Sunday lunches and brunches after service, when literally breaking a fast, PREMARIN treatment. PREMARIN maximum dosage, Perhaps it's the Midwestern cooking style.
Either way, when a colleague offered an opportunity to borrow and review the First United Church of Christ cookbook, I jumped at the chance, BUY PREMARIN NO PRESCRIPTION. I then kept the book for a couple months and picked a few recipes to try, buying PREMARIN online over the counter. PREMARIN price, coupon, My number one guilty pleasure when it comes to unhealthy Midwestern food is hash brown casserole. This recipe, PREMARIN recreational, What is PREMARIN, like others I've made, is mostly cheese and sour cream on top of onions and potatoes, PREMARIN description, Discount PREMARIN, but it has the added (and unnecessary?) fat of a whole stick of melted butter. I always question the need for it, PREMARIN from mexico, PREMARIN interactions, but I also always add it in. BUY PREMARIN NO PRESCRIPTION, The food disappears in just a few days.
I also tagged the Wisconsin cheese soup, generic PREMARIN, PREMARIN use, not in solidarity with either the Green Bay Packers or the protesters at the Capitol. I just like cheese and soup, online buying PREMARIN. PREMARIN images, Plus, while unhealthy, PREMARIN without prescription, Buy PREMARIN no prescription, the recipe included vegetables as well. This meal also was finished after a couple days, taking PREMARIN.
Finally, I couldn't resist making something of a dessert, BUY PREMARIN NO PRESCRIPTION. PREMARIN street price, To pretend to be a little healthy, I made a coffee cake instead of a cake-cake or cookies, buy PREMARIN online cod. Real brand PREMARIN online, I had always resisted making coffee cake, because the recipes I came across seemed complicated, about PREMARIN. Is PREMARIN addictive, This one seemed easy. It was no less good because of this factor. BUY PREMARIN NO PRESCRIPTION, In fact, the coffee cake only lasted longer because there was more of it, and because my sweetie and I somewhat resisted temptation to shove the whole pan in our mouths.
Thanks to the contributors for their wonderful recipes. I'm sure the rest that I didn't venture into are equally as good. But rest assured, I'll be happy to be rid of the temptation to make more unhealthy foods. Of course, the whole world wide web and many of my other cookbooks will still be there for enticing me.

The Golden Twenties in Berlin was a vibrant period in the history of Berlin, German history, and European history in general.
Weimar culture[edit]
This fertile culture of Berlin extended onwards until Adolf Hitler rose to power in early 1933 and stamped out any and all resistance to the Nazi Party. Likewise, the Nazis decried Berlin as a haven of vice.[clarification needed] A sophisticated, innovative culture developed in and around Berlin, including highly developed architecture and design (Bauhaus, 1919–33), a variety of literature (Döblin, Berlin Alexanderplatz, 1929), film (Lang, Metropolis, 1927, Dietrich, Der blaue Engel, 1930), painting (Grosz), and music (Brecht and Weill, The Threepenny Opera, 1928), criticism (Benjamin), philosophy/psychology (Jung), and fashion.[citation needed] This culture was often considered to be decadent and socially disruptive by rightists.[1]
Film was making huge technical and artistic strides during this period of time in Berlin, and gave rise to the influential movement called German Expressionism. "Talkies", the Sound films, were also becoming more popular with the general public across Europe, and Berlin was producing very many of them.
The University of Berlin (today Humboldt University of Berlin) became a major intellectual centre in Germany, Europe, and the World. The sciences were especially favored — from 1914 to 1933, Albert Einstein served as director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Physics in Berlin, only leaving after the anti-Semitic Nazi Party rose to power.
The so-called mystical arts also experienced a revival during this time-period in Berlin, with astrology, the occult, and esoteric religions and off-beat religious practices becoming more mainstream and acceptable to the masses as they entered popular culture.
Berlin in the 1920s also proved to be a haven for English writers such as W. H. Auden, Stephen Spender and Christopher Isherwood, who wrote a series of 'Berlin novels', inspiring the play I Am a Camera, which was later adapted into a musical, Cabaret, and an Academy Award winning film of the same name. Spender's semi-autobiographical novel The Temple evokes the attitude and atmosphere of the time.
Street battles between Nazis and Communists[edit]
Politically, Berlin was seen as a left wing stronghold, with the Nazis calling it "the reddest city [in Europe] after Moscow."[2] Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels became his party's "Gauleiter" for Berlin in the autumn of 1926 and had only been in charge a week before organizing a march through a communist-sympathizing area that devolved into a street riot. The communists, who adopted the motto "Beat the fascists wherever you encounter them!" had their own paramilitary organization called the Roter Frontkämpferbund to battle the Nazis' Sturmabteilung (SA). In February 1927 the Nazis held a meeting in the "Red" stronghold of Wedding that turned into a violent brawl. "Beer glasses, chairs and tables flew through the hall, and severely injured people were left lying covered with blood on the floor. Despite the injuries, it was a triumph for Goebbels, whose thugs beat up about 200 communists and drove them from the hall."[3]
Infrastructure and industrialization[edit]
The government began printing tremendous amounts of currency to pay reparations; this caused staggering inflation that destroyed middle-class savings. However, economic expansion resumed after mid-decade, aided by U.S. loans. It was then that culture blossomed especially.
The heyday of Berlin began in the mid-1920s. It became the most industrialized city of the continent. Tempelhof Airport was opened in 1923 and a start was made on S-Bahn electrification from 1924 onwards. Berlin was also the second biggest inland harbor of Germany; all of this infrastructure was needed to transport and feed the over 4 million Berliners throughout the 1920s.[citation needed]
Architecture and urban planning[edit]
During the interwar period high-quality architecture was built on a large scale in Berlin for broad sections of the population, including poorer people. In particular the Berlin Modernism housing estates built before the beginning of National Socialism set standards worldwide and therefore have been added to the UNESCO World-heritage list in 2008. [4]
As a result of the economically difficult situation during the Weimar Republic, housing construction, which up to that time had been mainly privately financed and profit-oriented, had found itself at a dead end. Inflation was on the up and for citizens on low incomes decent housing was becoming increasingly unaffordable.
Consequently, the search was on to find new models for state-initiated housing construction, which could then be implemented with a passion from 1920 on following the creation of Greater Berlin and the accompanying reform of local and regional government. The requirements for the type of flats to be built and the facilities they were to have were clearly defined, and the city was divided into different building zones. Following some basic ideas of the Garden city movement two- to three-storey housing estates that were well integrated into the landscape of the suburbs of the city were planned. The first large estate of this type with more than 2,000 residential units was the so-called Hufeisensiedlung (Horseshoe Estate) designed by Bruno Taut in Berlin, which introduced a new type of high quality housing and became a prominent example for the use of colors in architecture.

Since the summer was hot for so long, does that mean our winter will be snowy and stay longer than normal?
No. All available evidence points to a neutral ENSO winter. That means we're not looking at an El Nino or La Nina winter. A neutral pattern doesn't favor a long, nor a short winter, but neutral winters can still have Arctic blasts.

a ten-year-old controversy
Writing about Linda Capone-Newton's June training reminded me that while we used to distribute an article from "Newsweek" about the controversy surrounding the Nappy Hair book in every Many Eyes, Many Voices training, there's no longer any guarantee that this 10-year-old story will get discussed. That's okay—there are many other connections to current events that can be made during Many Eyes, Many Voices agenda. Still, it would be good for those of you who aren't familiar with the controversy to read about it. (The controversy resurfaced briefly in 2007, when conservative radio personality Don Imus got into trouble for talking about "nappy hair" in reference to Rutgers women's basketball players. It's unlikely to ever fade completely.) The Newsweek article is not available online, but there's an archived piece from a publication at California State University, Chico, where author Carolivia Herron taught literature at the time. Searching the New York Times website for the teacher's name, Ruth Sherman, also yields some archived coverage. Trainers who wish to incorporate Nappy Hair should contact us to make a special request for copies of the book and/or the Newsweek article.

The first eight days of December averaged about four degrees colder than normal in our region, with a strong northwesterly jet stream bringing very cold air southeastward from northern Canada.
However, we can look forward to a major change, as temperatures stay above normal through at least next week, as the storm track stays to our west and a southwest flow takes over at the surface and aloft.
On Friday as a major storm system tracks northeastward to northern New England, northwesterly winds will take over, and after a few snow showers in the morning, skies will be partly sunny in the afternoon with highs from 30 to 35 degrees.
It looks like beautiful weather will continue all weekend, with cold, dry air on Saturday and delightfully mild on Sunday.
A northwesterly flow will continue on Saturday, with partly to mostly sunny skies and highs from 25 to 30 degrees.
As high pressure builds eastward from the Ohio Valley and a west to southwest flow takes over, skies will be mostly sunny on Sunday with highs in the low 40's. The southwest flow will continue early next week, as a series of storm systems slide across the upper Midwest and western Great Lakes, with partly sunny skies and highs from 40 to 45 degrees on Monday.
With mostly cloudy skies, there could be a few rain showers on Tuesday, as mild air continues in place; highs again in the low 40's.

- Weather watch The Susquehanna River level will be unusually low for the General Clinton Canoe Regatta during Memorial Day weekend.
- Weather Watch It's really uncanny how the very dry weather pattern has continued in this area despite the succession of major storms that have moved to the west and south.
- Weather Watch Now that north has become a synonym for sunshine and south has become a synonym for rain, there's no way that this extremely dry weather pattern can change at least for the next four weeks.
- Weather Watch March was the third straight month with below normal precipitation, and it looks like April will also turn out to be drier than normal.
- Weather Watch Temperatures were near normal in March, with precipitation around an inch below normal.
- Weather Watch On Friday a major storm will move to the Ohio Valley, while high pressure builds southward from eastern Canada. Skies will be partly sunny with highs from 55 to 60 degrees.
- Weather Watch When it's warmer to the north and cooler to the south, it's so easy to get into an extremely dry weather pattern in Otsego County. The weather forecast in last week's weather column was more optimistic than other local weather forecasts, but the weather was actually much better than even we predicted.
- Weather Watch The jet stream will shift southward this week and a series of low pressure systems will move well to our south.
- Weather Watch Exactly as we predicted at the beginning of the month, it was one of the driest Februaries on record in Otsego County and throughout most of central and eastern New York. Thanks to the extreme upside-down temperature pattern with much warmer weather in Montana than in Georgia, and strong winds on Monday and Tuesday, an extremely dry weather pattern will be the theme for at least the next two to three weeks.
- Weather Watch Exactly as we've been predicting for the past month, this is turning out to be an exceptionally dry February - one of the driest on record in central and eastern New York.

ELLIOTT COUNTY, Ky. (WSAZ) -- A student is facing charges after investigators say he brought a possible explosive device to school.
Kentucky State Police say they received a call from the Elliott County Board of Education in reference to a possible explosive device at Elliott County Middle School.
Investigators say a student brought a World War II training grenade to school.
The school was not evacuated, and no one was injured.
The student has been charged with unlawful possession of a weapon on school property.
The school sent letters to parents home with students explaining what happened.
The middle school is connected to the elementary and high school.
Students say their classmates should understand why even a hint of a weapon in school is unacceptable.
"It's really bizarre that he would think it's ok to bring something like that to school," senior Destiny Lewis said. "Toy or not, you don't do that."
Parent Carlene Gilley says she's grateful the school took the incident seriously.
"We've seen it at too many different schools," Gilley said. "Anything could happen here, as well as anywhere else."

The Crusader men fell in a tough match at #20 Michigan on Monday night. An early penalty given to the Wolverines would turn out to be the difference in a 1-0 loss for the Crusaders.
The Crusaders were whistled for a handball in their own penalty area in the 27th minute of the match. Michigan's Fabio Pereira was able to convert the penalty in spite of a great effort from Crusader goalkeeper Tom Serratore (Tinley Park, Ill./Andrew). Pereira's spot kick put the Wolverines up early and forced the Crusaders to chase the game.
"It was a tight game where both teams had spells of being on the front foot, and spells of being back on their heels," said head coach Mike Avery. "The difference in the game was a penalty kick, and while I can't argue with the call, it was a bit of bad luck in that one of our players was uncontested and misjudged a clearance that made contact with his hand. Other than that penalty kick moment, we did a good job of keeping them out of the box and limiting their shots to shots from distance, where Tom was able to make some fairly routine saves."
Valpo looked to respond just minutes later as Zev Taublieb (Malibu, Calif./Agoura )was able to create enough space to have a look at goal in the 31st minute, but the junior midfielder's shot would be saved by Michigan goalkeeper Adam Grinwis, and the Wolverines would keep their 1-0 advantage. Michigan would take a few more looks on goal before the end of the half, but each chance would be snuffed out by Serratore.
Minutes into the second half, Charles Barden (Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Linn-Mar) almost leveled the score at 1-1 with a great strike on goal. Grinwis was able to produce an important save, however, denying the Crusaders once again.
"On the attacking end, we had plenty of balls in their box, but we struggled to get on the end of anything,' said Avery. "Their backs and goalkeeper did well to keep us from clean looks, and their goalkeeper had one very good save on a chance from Charles Barden, but for the most part we were lacking some urgency to beat a man to the ball. We will need to be much more proactive on Saturday against Detroit in that area of the game."
The Crusaders would continue to push for the equalizer, but were unable to produce that special moment needed to find goal. Pereira's penalty would hold, and the match would end 1-0. Jesse Ortiz (Aurora, Ill./West Aurora) led the Crusaders with two shots on the night, one being on goal. Taublieb and Barden also produced a chance on goal. Outside of the early penalty, Serratore was only called upon to produce three saves.
"Michigan is a good team, ranked nationally, and we went toe to toe with them at their home stadium," said Avery. "It shows that when we have everyone healthy, which we do now after a long stretch where that wasn't the case, we can play with anyone. It will be an exciting game Saturday, and we need to be at our best to give ourselves a chance to earn a postseason appearance."
The Crusader men have the week to prepare for their regular season finale with Horizon League foe Detroit (3-10-4, 0-6-0 Horizon). The match carries plenty of significance, as the Crusaders must take all three points from the game in order to secure a berth in the Horizon League championship. Green Bay must also lose their match at UIC for Valpo to advance. Additionally, Saturday's match will serve as senior night for seven Crusaders. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. at Brown Field.

A family history research journal is also different from what genealogists typically think of as a "research log" or "research calendar." In a log or calendar, you primarily record the facts of your research—the date of your search, a source citation for the records you've looked at, the results of the search—in columnar format or in a database. These logs serve a functional purpose in research, and I'm not suggesting substituting a specialty journal for them, either. But just as pure facts on a pedigree chart are sterile and unappealing to share with others—"Ah, so Grandpa Joe was born in 1906. How 'bout that."—sharing your data on a research log no doubt ranks a close tie with being in a coma. Research logs are worksheets, just like pedigree charts, and not something you'd expect to thrill and delight your family with around a cozy fireplace as you nibble from a big bowl of buttered popcorn.
In a special family history research journal, however, you show your joys, frustrations and feelings about your search for your ancestors. You might even include impressions you have about a particular ancestor from your research, such as: "I'm not sure I like Great-grandpa Andrew. I found a divorce record today in the county next to the one he and Great-grandma lived in, accusing him of beating his first wife. Wonder what Great-grandma saw in him. She must not have known about his past in the next county when she married him." Or: "Wow. I didn't know my third great-grandmother went to law school and had to hide being married so she wouldn't get thrown out. She must've been quite some woman!"
A journal like this gives so much more meaning to your family history search. We often lament not being privy to our ancestors' thoughts and feelings. Now you have an opportunity to let your descendants in on your thoughts about this hobby of collecting dead relatives that gives you so much pleasure. It also makes keeping a journal a lot more fun. And you don't have to be a wonderful writer: Mistakes don't matter. You're keeping it for yourself and for your descendants on a special topic.
Five perks of journaling
Still not convinced? Here are five ways you'll benefit from keeping a family history research journal:
Analyzing and organizing
Your journal enables you to sort out what you've uncovered, helping you ponder and analyze your findings and formulate a plan for the next step in your search.
Reviewing and planning
Unlike a research log, your journal has room for you to record why you think certain things and look at particular records. It will refresh your memory on what you'd been working on when you set it aside, and what leads you were planning to follow next. During your off-research time, you can make notes in your journal as ideas come to you for your next research trip. Now you never have to worry about losing your to-do list.
Recording and researching family stories
Through your journal, you'll also be recording those family stories you've heard a million times from Uncle Harry. You know, the ones you know you really should be recording somewhere, but you haven't figured out exactly where since there's no room on your charts and forms and the stories haven't been verified yet.
Sharing your search
Journaling is a good way to share your excitement over those discoveries that non-genealogists just don't understand and can't fully appreciate. Have you ever tried to share with family and friends your elation over a death certificate that just arrived in the mail? Non-family history sleuths don't treasure these special, happy moments in a genealogist's life.
Telling the whole story
By keeping a journal, you're telling the whole story of your search for your family history as it happens. The documents you gather, the names you add to the charts and those sterile research logs tell the only facts.

fall out (2) Informal
Meaning: If you and a friend fall out, you are no longer friendly because of a disagreement or a problem you've had.
For example:
- fall out over sth/sb Sayoko and Hiroko fell out over a boy they both liked, and now they aren't speaking to one another.
- fall out with sb I fell out with my parents after I told them I was gay. They couldn't accept it.
fall out (2): friends, relatives, partners, colleagues, lovers
Note: The noun "falling-out" comes from this phrasal verb. A "falling-out" occurs when friends, colleagues or family members have a disagreement or a misunderstanding over something, and their relationship is in danger of ending. For example, "They had a falling-out over their mother's will after she died."

I write about video games: the industry and the culture.
Anyone who likes action-RPGs, has a fondness for Diablo II, or just wants to experience a really in-depth role-playing experience with one of the most tangled skill "trees" in existence and a ton of loot, really ought to play Path of Exile.
Five years in development, the game is still in its beta phase, but my first couple hours of gameplay went off without a hitch. It's a pretty complicated game as far as click-kill top-down style RPGs go, with an elaborate system of weapon upgrades, a UI that takes a bit of getting used to, and – as I said – pretty staggering layers of customization.
Unlike Diablo the game isn't exactly co-op. It sort of blends MMORPG and co-op play, allowing players to join parties when they venture out of the hub (where you'll encounter dozens of other players.)
Basically you've been exiled to a bleak, dangerous shore encampment in the land of Wraeclast. Depending on which character you play, your reasons for exile vary. You can play as the Marauder, the Ranger, the Witch, the Duelist, the Templar and the Shadow. Each class has different starting abilities and attributes, but anyone can level their character in whatever fashion they please.
The game will be entirely free-to-play when it's released, with in-game perks and aesthetics available for purchase within the game, though these are entirely optional (no unlocking level caps, in other words.) If they pull it off, it may be one of the more exciting installments in the move toward F2P – a drift I'm skeptical of, but rather optimistic about for Path of Exile.
Developer Grinding Gear Games says the title is "a competitive online action RPG" rather than an MMORPG.
It features instanced areas so that parties (or loners) can traverse and loot and quest on their own. So far, what few quests I've done have been interesting and fun. The combat is described as "visceral" on the website, and that's a fitting description. There's some similarities with other top-down hack-and-slash games but I found the combat to have that extra oomph that can make (or break) an action-RPG. The graphics are nothing to write home about, but they do the trick. The world is certainly a bleak and colorless one, much more reminiscent of Diablo II than Diablo III.
If you haven't tried it yet, I absolutely recommend signing up for the beta. It's dark, gritty, and fun. Oh, and totally addicting. In fact, it has already fulfilled some of my wishlist for the next Diablo game, as it appears, at least, to take a much more open-world approach to the genre while also making each weapon you use a weapon, that you use, rather than merely a stats-booster.
I've been playing as The Duelist, though I quickly appropriated a bow-and-arrow to keep enemies at a distance. Duel-wielding in one slot, bow in the other…let the adventures begin…
P.S. Between this game, Inquisitor and Legends of Aethereus as well as Torchlight 2 and whatever other action-RPG that's slipped my mind…well, things are looking good for the genre.
>in-game perks
I just really hope they stick to the only aesthetics for this, or even something like Valve's TF2 shop, which gives a chance to use anything to see if you'd like it, let's you buy and customize cosmetics and lets you buy new weapons if you're willing to spend a stupid amout of money.
Game is Solid, looks good. And has some replay. though static levels is kinda lame Im ok with it with the f2p model.
I've been playing PoE for the last month. To anyone disappointed by Diablo III's lack of depth and endgame, I can highly recommend Path of Exile as a true hardcore RPG. Many people have said "It's what Diablo III should have been" or "It feels more like Diablo than Diablo III", but that would be selling PoE short on some of its own great ideas, such as the potion mechanics and the endlessly versatile active and passive skill systems.
I'm flabbergasted and amazed that an 18-person indie team from New Zealand have outdone Blizzard's multimillion dollar production in basic ARPG mechanics such as itemisation, character progression, and build diversity. Oh, and did I mention that this game has playable PvP?
"I just really hope they stick to the only aesthetics for this"
Kain should probably elaborate. In every, every interview GGG has ever done, they've stated they will only be selling Aesthetics and "Convenience" items.
The current aesthetic items they've talked about are:
New character skins and models
New particle effects
Pets (non-combat)
The current convenience items they've talked about:
extra character slots (you can just make a new account if you really don't want to spend money here)
extra stash tabs (again, make a new account if you don't mind wasting your time managing multiple accounts)
stash organization features
custom leagues (almost like running your own server/game-mode)
Sounds fine enough to me. Just hope it stays this way.

This IDC study provides a 2013–2016 forecast and 2011 vendor share analysis for the worldwide IT project and portfolio management (IT PPM) market, which experienced 11.3% growth in 2011 to $896.6 million up from 8.7% growth (and $805.7 million in 2010 revenue).
Decision making in brittle financial environments demands effective prioritization, and we saw strong revenue growth from all major and key innovative smaller vendors in 2011 with few exceptions. More generally, the increasing role and complexity of IT in the enterprise with mobile and social platforms driving growth and the need to better align IT with business needs, corporate governance, and a plethora of regulatory requirements have combined to retain strong ongoing growth for IT PPM as the economy shifts. IDC has also seen increased alignment of IT PPM with mobile; evolving SaaS and cloud strategies from major providers, with rapid uptake of SaaS IT PPM; governance, risk, and compliance (GRC); and application life-cycle management (ALM) and agile. This had impact in 2011 and will continue to play a role for market growth through 2016. IDC's forecasts show higher and continuing growth in the IT PPM segment during our five-year forecast period, reaching revenue of around $1.7 billion in 2016.
"Global 2000 organizations struggle with the ever greater complexity of IT delivery while seeking to address economic and political volatility as technology and business needs change and swirl dynamically around them. Management of human, financial, and other resources is key. In response, as businesses and vendors consolidate offerings and focus their strategy in the wake of acquisitions and as niche players target emerging areas, demand will remain ongoing for IT PPM tools throughout our forecast period as larger vendors acquire core technologies to deliver more complete ITLM solutions," says Melinda Ballou, program director for Application Life-Cycle Management and Executive Strategies at IDC. "Smaller vendors will continue to play a key role in product and market innovation, and differentiated IT PPM solutions will come into play in that context as further consolidation occurs with additional acquisitions during the 2012–2016 time frame."
Revenue growth from leading vendors resulting from G2000 and SMB reinvestment led to low-single-digit revenue growth up from low declines in 2009. This resulted from positive growth at the mature, high end of the SCM market. Many innovative small and midrange vendors succeeded well in targeting emerging market areas. IDC was bullish on this market for 2011 moving into 2012.
"Despite some ongoing volatility, the economy emerged in 2010 with investments in IT and increased disruption with complex deployment environments, which resulted in a return to SCM market growth as companies seek to drive innovation and manage complex IT initiatives," says Ballou. "A number of factors contributed to SCM growth, including complex sourcing, agile and the need to manage distributed development, open source, increased compliance demands, and the evolution of SaaS deployment models, which enable faster adoption and decapitalized spending models. We also saw high-double-digit revenue growth in 2010 for a number of innovative, smaller vendors in this space targeting these areas. The push toward multiplatform deployments (including mobile and embedded) will also drive growth in the forecast period."

Please keep in mind that CNN claims to be a news organization. They actually claim to be a national news organization. So when I tell you what I learned on CNN today, please try to figure out exactly how any of the information that CNN presented to us falls under the categories of either news, journalism or national news.
Here are some things that I learned: (They all relate to the missing boy scout who has been receiving national news coverage for some reason.)
1. The missing boy loved to play basketball.
2. The missing boy was on a non-competitive basketball team that ensured playing time for all ream members.
3. The missing boy was a Weblo Scout for two of the three years that he has been a Boy Scout
4. The missing boy likes to read
5. The missing boy's father might give him $5 if he returns to them
6. The missing boy like Scouts because he it allowed him to hang out with the guys
I learned this thanks to the live coverage of the ridicules and useless news conference where so called news reporters were searching deeply for questions to ask during the conference that would appear to be important to anyone outside of the immediate family. It was to say the least embarrassing and to say the most pathetic journalism.
I wonder how ALL the news agencies decided that this particular missing child case is national news. This is another perfect example of how information in our country is controlled and coordinated at a single source. Imagine that every single national TV news organization is focusing on this case when there are as many as 2000 missing children reported each day. So out of 800,000 or so annual missing children cases ALL of the news agencies seem to pick the same cases to bring to the nation's attention. Is this an example of controlled single source news content decision making? You bet it is!
Out of the 2000 missing children cases reported each day every single TV news network chooses to cover the same cases at the same time. What are the odds of that being a coincidence? Your news is being controlled and this is yet another perfect example of it! Think about it!
"Missing Person!†- Newsworthy? Not at all.

Eleven short stories about the lives and loves of young Manhattanites are intricately woven together here. All the characters live in or have contact with the Preemption apartment building. The central players, to me, are James, Patrick and Rally who are involved in a hopeless love triangle. I wanted to hear more about these people and I did.
After the first few stories introduce everyone they become more interesting because connections between the characters become increasingly more apparent and peculiar. Check catalog for availability.

The Hangover
On the morning of his wedding, Doug Billings (Justin Barta) is nowhere to be found. His two best friends and brother-in-law wake up in a disheveled hotel room, consisting of a stray chicken and a bubble-filled fountain, in Las Vegas. No one remembers the night before, which was supposed to be a bachelor party for their friend Doug, and the only clues they have are the baby crying in the closet and the hospital band around Phil Wenneck's (Bradley Cooper) wrist. Phil, Stu Price (Ed Helms), and Alan Garner (Zack Galifianakis) follow the trail of clues of this memorable, yet forgotten, night that could lead them to the Doug's whereabouts. Their adventures during take them from a blackjack table to a deal with gangsters in the middle of a desert to a stripper's house, and everywhere in between.
The Hangover is rated R for nudity, language, and drug material. It's an entertaining, immature comedy with an unpredictable and ludicrous plot. It's a fun watch with friends, if you're looking for a movie that's sole selling point is teenage humor.

NORMAN — Despite legislation moving forward to allow augmentation of Lake Thunderbird during drought, Norman residents could face mandatory water conservation measures in the near future.
Central Oklahoma Master Conservancy District General Manager Randy Worden recently told Norman city leaders that its three municipal water customers — Midwest City, Del City and Norman — would be asked to reduce usage of the lake water supply by 10 percent.
Those letters arrived in city offices Monday.
"Reducing consumption is critical to sustaining the lake through an extended drought," Worden wrote. "Therefore, effective January 1st, the District is imposing a 10 percent reduction of each city's allocation. Further reductions may be forthcoming in the next several months depending on the rainfall that is received and declining lake elevations."
"We're actually ahead of the curve," Norman Utilities Director Ken Komiske said. "We have been educating our customers on water conservation for the past several years. We'll have to look at our conservation plan and see if we need to import language to add more mandatory conservation issues based on COMCD's requirements."
Water in winter is not the issue, but the city will need to prepare for spring and the possibility of mandatory water conservation.
"We'll probably update our water conservation plan and include triggers tied to COMCD's allocation," Komiske said. "They're imposing a 10 percent reduction in each city's allocation."
Komiske said December's average water use was 9.5 million gallons of water a day. But in the summer, the city exceeds 22 million gallons a day.
Providing the President signs the Thunderbird water bill, it's passage will allow COMCD to explore outside water options to boost lake levels.
"That's good news, it allows importation of non-basin water," Komiske said. "It's a really, really good step, but the next piece of the puzzle is going to be very expensive."

The Best Mutual Funds for 2010
U.S. News scores more than 4,500 mutual funds.
Slide Show: The Best Funds for 2010
In the financial turmoil of the past decade, mutual fund investing has gotten decidedly more complicated. After all, over the course of just 10 years, investors have looked on as two bear markets ravished the economy, as a pair of bull markets jolted stocks back to life, and as the Internet and housing bubbles inflated to their breaking points and then burst.
For investors, the search for the perfect mutual fund has always been something of a holy grail quest. But in the midst of the past decade's abrupt market cycles, investors have approached their fund-hunting efforts with newfound intensity. With that in mind, U.S. News has created a unique rankings system that is designed for long-term investors looking for broad access to information about funds. In the process, U.S. News has assigned scores to upwards of 4,500 distinct mutual funds.
[Use the U.S. News Mutual Fund Score and the rankings of trusted fund analysts to find the best mutual funds for you.]
Overall, the scores—which are based on data from Morningstar, Zacks, Lipper, TheStreet.com, and Standard & Poor's—take into account short- and long-term performance, risk, expenses, and future prospects.
[See our methodology.]
So what do the best mutual funds look like? To explore this, U.S. News has analyzed its top-ranked fund from each of the following 11 Morningstar categories: large growth, large value, large blend ("blend" funds have both growth and value characteristics), foreign large blend, diversified emerging markets, health, short-term bond, intermediate-term bond, intermediate government bond, world bond, and moderate allocation. Overall, the 11 category-topping funds have quite a bit in common. Here are some traits that they share:
[Slide Show: 11 category-topping funds]
High-conviction portfolios. Pat English, a comanager of FMI Large Cap (FMIHX), which is the top-scoring large-blend fund in the U.S. News rankings, likes to say that only his team's best ideas will make it into the fund's portfolio. And he means it: FMI Large Cap generally owns just 25 to 30 stocks at a time. "We're not big believers in sheer numbers of names," says English.
Neither is Don Yacktman, a comanager of the Yacktman Fund (YACKX), which tops the large-value category. At the end of 2009, the fund owned fewer than 50 securities. "Beyond a certain point," Yacktman says, "the more diversification, the more likely one will get mediocre returns."
Meanwhile, for its part, Fidelity Select Medical Equipment and Systems (FSMEX), the best-ranked health fund, finished 2009 with just under 60 stock holdings.
Broadly speaking, running a heavily concentrated fund is a risky proposition. If even one bet goes sour, the fund is certain to feel the blow. At the same time, though, concentrated portfolios allow managers to invest only in companies they know intimately. "Concentrated portfolios can be more volatile but aren't necessarily so," says Adam Bold, the founder of the Mutual Fund Store, an investment management firm with more than 65 U.S. locations.
Another measure of portfolio conviction is a fund's turnover ratio, which quantifies how frequently management trades. Funds with low ratios have buy-and-hold mentalities and tend to have high degrees of confidence in their picks. Overall, the 11 funds have turnover ratios that are an average of 78.7 percent lower than their category averages.
Low costs. It's one of the perennial mutual fund debates: Should investors focus primarily on costs or on returns? In a vindication of cost-based fund picking, the 11 mutual funds examined by U.S. News have expense ratios (a measure of annual fees) that are, on average, 0.32 percent less than their category averages.
[See Should You Deep-Six Your Mutual Fund?]
"Costs play a big role in fund returns. You tend not to see it if you look too close up. In other words, if you look at a single year, that advantage of, say, 50 basis points or whatever isn't that big, especially in years like '08 or '09 when you've got huge negative or positive returns," says Russel Kinnel, Morningstar's director of mutual fund research. "But over time, it adds up to quite a significant difference."

Recently, members of Build Our Trail gathered to discuss laying the groundwork for turning their group into a non-profit organization.
Build Our Trail is focused on converting a portion of the former SEPTA Newtown Rail Line in to a multi-use trail.
Last month, representatives of the group appeared before the Northampton Township Board of Supervisors, seeking the support of the board in their endeavor. However, after hearing from a few member of the community who were opposed to the idea, the board decided to table the discussion for a later date.
"They didn't say no, as much as they said we'll talk about it later," said Tom Hibbs, as he led the meeting.
Hibbs said the group was committed as ever to advancing its mission, and the first step in this was to gain non-profit status.
"This is something that we have been thinking about since day one," Hibbs said. "We've just been waiting for the right opportunity."
The group has recently published this survey, asking members of the community at large for their thoughts on the project. Click the link to share your viewpoint until December 31.
You can read more about Build Our Trail at their website.
