Accepted Offer
Positive Experience
Average Interview
I applied online and the process took 4 weeks - interviewed at Rothstein Kass in April 2012.
Interview Details – I applied to RK after doing their summer leadership program earlier in college. I emailed the HR manager and they were very friendly in setting up an interview during their on campus interview period. On campus interview was one on one with a Staff auditor from their socal office, took about 2 weeks for them to call back and offer a second round interview at the office I was applying for. I was unable to make their initial desired time period however they were very courteous in postponing until a time that worked for both of us. The second round consisted of three one on one interviews in the office, with two audit managers and a partner, followed by lunch with a staff member. The interviews generally revolved around discussing company culture and the responsibilities of the position, as well as my expectations and why I wanted to join RK and be a CPA. Everyone was very friendly and clearly cared about learning about me personally and whether I would be a good fit, culturally, professionally, and work-ethic wise, for the position.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details – received a call shortly from HR with an offer and accepted promptly, though they said they generally give candidates around two weeks to accept an offer. Terms were already set, not much room for negotiation, however they pay very competitively with very good benefits, so this shouldn't be a problem.

water that contains a large quantity of dissolved minerals or gases. Mineral water from natural springs commonly has a high content of calcium carbonate, magnesium sulfate, potassium, and sodium sulfate. It may also be impregnated with such gases as carbon dioxide or hydrogen sulfide. Mineral water is produced artificially by adding salts to distilled water or aerating it with carbon dioxide. The mineral content of both natural and artificial mineral water varies greatly, and in some cases it may be less than that of ordinary tap water.

BEVERLY — The woman struck and killed by an MBTA train at Prides Crossing last week has been identified as Asaki Nishiyama, a 22-year-old student at Endicott College.
There has been no ruling on the manner of death from the state medical officer. An investigation by the MBTA and the district attorney's office is ongoing. The Wednesday incident sparked widespread service delays while riders were transferred to buses to travel to and from Cape Ann.
"I know this announcement affects all of us deeply," Endicott College President Richard Wylie said Friday in a message to the community, "and I want to encourage our students, parents, faculty and staff to support each other as we process Asaki's passing. I know we are a strong community, kind and respectful, and that will be important in the coming days."
Nishiyama, 22, was said to be walking near the tracks when she was struck. A Japanese national, she was a photographer and a major in creative/fine arts due to graduate at the end of the school year. She arrived at Endicott for the fall term in 2010, according to Joanne Waldner, assistant to the president.
Waldner added that Nishiyama was part of a population including several Asian students, that she was well traveled and fluent in English. Her death has been a blow to the Endicott community.
"Both the students and the faculty are taking it hard," she said. "Our counselors and our chaplains are all very busy."
A memorial service at the school for students and staff is to be scheduled. Nishiyama's parents, communicating with the college, have asked for privacy.
In a statement, Wylie remembered Nishiyama as someone interested in world cultures and willing to share her experiences on a local radio broadcast. "She wanted to help other students become more internationally involved and raise awareness about the life-changing diversity of the world around us," he said.
In a story from last February about an art therapy exhibit, Nishiyama told the Salem News, sister paper to the Times, spoke of art therapy's "great potential to heal the many wounds that exist in this world."
In 2011 she was a prime mover in getting proceeds from the college chorus' last concert donated to victims of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. Nishiyama was a member of the chorus.

Hundreds dress up for annual Santa Jog
9:29am Monday 10th December 2012 in News By Dan Bean
HUNDREDS of runners dressed as Father Christmas braved the cold to take part in a festive charity fun run.
The British Heart Foundation's Santa Jog took place at York's Knavesmire yesterday, with two races, a 2km race for families and children, followed by a 5km race for adults. All participants were encouraged to dress up and show support for the charity.
Angie Goldsmith ran the 2km race with her seven-year-old daughter, Lucy, who won the prize for best costume. Both ran with a team of about 30 from Archbishop of York's Junior School.
Sara Harbord organised the school group, and ran with her children Sophie, 16, and Luke, 10, Nicky Nolan, and her children, Ellie, nine, and Liam, aged five.
Sara said: "It was brilliant. We run a running club at the school and have up to 100 members in total from different years, and we thought it would be nice to have them come and take part.
"It's fun, and dressing up makes it more so, and gets them taking part."
Luke said: "It was cold, but in a Santa suit, it was quite warm and easy, and it was very good fun."
Ellie, who finished the race in sixth place, said: "It was strange running in a beard."

In addition to an earlier article in The Press, the Jog was mentioned in the Local Link and Yortimes. Additional publicity was distributed, by the local BHF committee, to schools, sports clubs, gyms,York City council facilities, Imphal Barracks plus local shops in the vicinity.

The media narrative of the Trayvon Martin case is pretty clear. So far, it's been effective too--a new poll has three-quarters of Americans wanting Martin's shooter, George Zimmerman, to be arrested.
Zimmerman, an overly zealous neighborhood watchman, became suspicious of Martin only because he was black and white people don't want them in a gated community. He followed Martin, whose father lived in the neighborhood. Martin became scared and approached Zimmerman to ask why he was following him. Zimmerman used a poorly worded Stand Your Ground gun law as a loophole to legally shoot Martin point blank in the chest.
At least that's what the media narrative tells us, along with politicians who are eager to whip up racial hatred. However, some new information in the case may completely upend that story.
First, Zimmerman is a Spanish-speaking Hispanic Democrat. So the idea that this is a cut-and-dry example of white conservative racial profiling should have gone out the window pretty early. It didn't.
Next, police found Zimmerman with grass stains on his back, and a bloody nose and face. His lawyer says his nose was broken.
Some witness testimony has the much taller Martin throwing the first punch, knocking Zimmerman to the ground, getting on top of him, and repeatedly slamming his head into the pavement.
One witness, who has since talked to local television news reporters, told police he saw Zimmerman on the ground with Trayvon on top, pounding him -- and was unequivocal that it was Zimmerman who was crying for help.
Zimmerman then shot Trayvon once in the chest at very close range, according to authorities.
When police arrived less than two minutes later, Zimmerman was bleeding from the nose, had a swollen lip and had bloody lacerations to the back of his head.
Zimmerman might not have been the aggressor, if any of that was true. This might not have been "a killing that seems dangerously close to an execution." Trayvon also might not be the innocent the media portrayed him as. They ran pictures of a fresh-faced young man alongside Zimmerman's scary mug and America saw that he really could have been Obama's son, as the president pointed out. The media chose not to run a picture of Trayvon with a slight sneer than the teenager had posted on his Twitter profile. One tweet suggests Trayvon may have hit a bus driver.
The Miami Herald reported that Trayvon had multiple suspensions from school and a school official once found suspicious items in his bookbag after suspecting him of graffiti.
Instead the officer reported he found women's jewelry and a screwdriver that he described as a "burglary tool," according to a Miami-Dade Schools Police report obtained by The Miami Herald.
The day of the shooting, Zimmerman said Martin looked suspicious because he was looking inside windows of houses he passed.
It's starting to look like the media rushed to judgment, yet again, like they did with the white Duke -Lacrosse players who were accused of raping a black stripper. That story also fit the media's desperation to find black people being abused at the hands of white people. The media looked silly by rushing to judgment in that case too. You might say they were prejudiced.
More facts about this shooting are yet to emerge. It may well turn out that Zimmerman murdered Trayvon. Or not. But it shouldn't be up to people like me to lecture season journalists on waiting for all facts to come out before hanging a guilty verdict on someone's head.

Cumberland Times-News
CUMBERLAND — A Downtown Development Commission plan to create a walking tour by placing plaques on structures within the city's core, such as the Lila Building, is taking a turn into cyber world.
"We are still considering having plaques with some basic information, but the plan now is to merge into the existing tour (cumberlandhistorytours.com) that allows the visitor to use a smartphone to scan a QR Code for information at each stop," said Sandi Saville, DDC chairwoman.
Called "A Step Back in History Walking Tour," the existing attraction has 11 stops, beginning at the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad and C&O Canal Visitor Center, winding through downtown with stops at places such as Allegany Museum and City Hall and continuing on to George Washington Headquarters and then onto Washington Street.
The tour of downtown buildings will have a separate brochure, according to Vic Rezendes, vice president of administration for the Allegany Museum.
"I am seeking a grant right now to include the new tour," Rezendes said Monday afternoon.
Saville said downtown buildings likely to be included in the new effort currently house M&T Bank, Susquehanna Bank, Fort Cumberland Arms and Embassy Theater.
"The idea is to describe the architecture and list the chain of owners and businesses for each building," she said. By scanning the QR Code, the tourist gets an audio podcast with that information.
Rezendes said a portion of the project will be the placement of new signs aimed at attracting tourists who are in town for a different reason to also take part in the walk.
"We'd like to get folks who are going to the (scenic) railroad to know that this tour is walkable and doable," he said.
Rezendes said grant awards will be announced in July. "If we get the grant, the walking tour and a new (brochure) will be up and running by fall," he said.
When the idea was first presented this past October, Ed Mullaney, downtown manager, told the Times-News he would welcome the building tour.
"With all the class reunions we are having on the mall, this really fits," he said.

The reason I am active on this website is to pass on the help I have received from generous contributors. I will be glad to help find graves in the area, and I will try my best to do so.
I only transcribe for genealogical purposes, particularly if the records are old and fading fast. I will not add new graves until a few years have passed. Unless I knew the person in life, and if their families will agree to an immediate memorial, only then will I add it.
My main concern is finding and adding as much information as I can to those records, and in turn, to the descendants of those transcribed.
If one has information on a transcription, please don't hesitate to inform me.
I will gladly transfer memorials.
I have absolutely NO intention of keeping memorials from family members, or others, who can and will add more information and keep the long term maintence up.
Any and all questions, information updates, and requests are welcome.
Thanks to all those who have helped me in the past and I hope to do the same for others in the future.

I am not sure they are the same either. I have the death certificate on my jabe Smith posted as b 1885 and death 1956 and he is married to the Birdie Virdie Stewart Smith. They married 27 May 1907 in knox co and by the marriage cert Birdie was b about 1891 have no other date on her. I will let you know if I find anything else. I do have another Jabe born march 10 but have no other dates on him.

RE: John V. Prim
That is fantastic. I would love to do that; the older and more run down, the better. I live in CA and went to VA last summer to find old graves. It is so fulfilling to photograph old headstones and put them on Find A Grave.
Last night I looked for Wallsend Cemetery on Google Earth. From the air you can almost make out an area with headstones. Good luck and thank you for your effort. You can email me direct firstname.lastname@example.com
Thank you!

RE: John V. Prim
Thank you for your message. I would guess that the library records are wrong. It looks like there was an error made at some point and both records are for the same person. My John V. Prim was b. 10 May 1868 and d. 17 Aug 1889. To my knowledge, there were no other Prim family members in that area after John's death. If I had to choose between the two records, I'd pick the second one as it looks like the transcription on the birth date was incorrect. I am curious about both records if you have the time to investigate. Thank you so much for doing this for me, I really appreciate it!!!

The Saker family, which runs and operates 31 Saker Shoprites in New Jersey including the Freehold Shoprite, has pledged $200,000 to several Monmouth County charities focused on helping the community recover from Hurricane Sandy.
The beneficiaries include the Union Beach Disaster Relief Fund, Catholic Charities of Monmouth County, Project Paul in Keansburg, the RAINE Foundation based in Hazlet, the Mental Health Association in New Jersey, and The Middletown Disaster Relief Fund (MDRF).
The MDRF will distribute $50,000 in supermarket gift cards, said Fund Chairman Tony Fiore.
"Of all the towns that got walloped, Middletown got walloped probably the hardest," said Saker, a township resident, at a luncheon with organization representatives in the Route 35 Middletown store mezzanine on Friday. "They've got the most displaced people of any town, in this eastern area. More than Keyport, more than Union Beach, believe it or not."
Deputy Mayor Stephanie Murray said that close to 1,400 people are affected in Middletown's hard-hit communities of North Middletown, Leonardo, Belford, and Port Monmouth.
Saker praised the community organizations, most of which have been receiving ShopRite donations since Sandy hit on Oct. 29 or before.
The store president also gave credit to his own Middletown store associates who came to work in the Middletown stores in those first awful days after the storm, even though some of them had lost their homes, and the local first responders and organizations at the luncheon who immediately stepped up in the chaotic situation "too big for the Red Cross or FEMA."

Perhaps like no other recent work for the musical stage, Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is so eminently adaptable and bendable as theater that it practically cries out for fresh treatments. In the case of the Clarence Brown Theatre's current staging of the musical, a collaboration with the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra, the production practically bursts out of the available width of the Clarence Brown Theatre stage, with the onstage orchestra and the dramatic space being afforded equal theatrical footing. "Collaboration," though, is probably too weak a description for what director Calvin MacLean's and KSO music director Lucas Richman's have managed to accomplish in creating this production; "brilliantly integrated" is better.
The 1979 Sondheim/Hugh Wheeler musical is drawn from a 1973 adaptation by Christopher Bond of some 1840s serialized London magazine stories and a simultaneously adapted melodrama by George Dibdin Pitt. MacLean and designer Kevin Depinet have retained subtle hints of Victorian flavor in their set, but have mixed in suggestions of Dickensian industrial heaviness and meat-market modernity using plastic slats as scrim/projection surfaces—all the while managing to fit in the 38 member orchestra in a cozy location upstage center.
Despite the intriguing visual impact of the production and MacLean's inventive use of the space, it is the brilliance of the Sondheim score and the musical performances that shine through and drive this production. Richman certainly deserves kudos for keeping the musical timing tight. The juxtaposition of sweet and sour pushes and tugs on the audience; the old-time verse-driven structure of "A Little Priest" (with a modern melodic twist) serves as comedy relief following Todd's dive into the depths of blackness with his "Epiphany." From intricate and difficult meter-changing rhythm to dramatic dissonance to sophisticated lyricism, Sweeney Todd is probably as close to opera as one ever finds on the musical stage.
MacLean and Richman have also managed to cast the production with such a strong mixture of singing actors and acting singers that the differentiations became irrelevant. Dale Dickey was a masterful Mrs. Lovett, painting the character with bold strokes of voice acrobatics and delightfully shaded physical nuances tinged with loneliness and a bit of lust. She is a strong widow just holding on in a thankless situation, but all too willing to sacrifice personal ethics for survival.
Jeff Austin was a handsome (perhaps too handsome) Sweeney, with a lustrous voice to match the strength of resolve and the depth of his revenge, leaving no doubt that he could be the amorous target of Mrs. Lovett. However, try as I would, I failed to find the odd descriptions and mannerisms of Sweeney Todd ("His skin was pale and his eye was odd") that Sondheim describes in the prologue in Austin's character—and that one might have seen in other Sweeneys.
Alex Ward, as the love-bitten sailor Anthony Hope, and Natalee Louise McReynolds, as Sweeney's daughter, Johanna, were both vocally strong and dramatically appealing, not to mention completely attractive as the young lovers. Cody Boling sang an absolutely gorgeous Beadle Bamford, although dramatically I was never convinced he had a corrupt or evil bone in his body. On the other hand, David Kortemeier clearly knew the hypocritical subtleties of the evil of Judge Turpin's perversity, and delivered them deliciously. I must admit that I found the character of Tobias (Micah-Shane Brewer) a bit ambiguous—was he merely youthful and naive, or was he mentally disabled? No one seemed to be sure.
A real standout was tenor Boris Van Druff, who brought a fabulous voice to the role of the charlatan barber, Pirelli—the first of many to be dispatched by Sweeney, stuffed into a trunk, only to be turned into a savory meat pie by Mrs. Lovett. Sacha Baron Cohen's film version of Pirelli had been a comic favorite; now I'll have to consider another.
Sound design has advanced so far in the theater that productions like Sweeney Todd, where diction is key, are virtually impossible without it. Joe Payne's voice reinforcement and the subtle environmental effects, were clean, natural, and transparent.

Loved the show, however I found the placement of the orchestra centerstage very distracting. The ensemble kept running around the stage as if they were on a racetrack, so that you were always looking at the stage peripherally, instead of focusing on anything centerstage. That said though, the acting & singing were AWESOME!

I thoroughly enjoyed the show and was very pleased with the acting and singing. Dale Dickey's performance was fabulous. This interpretation brought forth more of the dark humor written into the musical which is often weak in the film version. ...speaking of which, the male vocals were strong and clear - something also missing from the film version. Sure there were a few very minor issues, but all in all this was a great show - well worth seeing... FWIW, I didn't mind the placement of the orchestra.

I enjoied the show enough to attend again, for the Weds night show. I was happy to discover that the four "minor issues" I'd referred to above had all been remedied. However, the new issue was irritating. Maestro Richmann opted to push the Tempo for Ms. Dickey's songs (or he allowed the orchestra to rush). Either way, there were points where it was clear that she needed to get a breath during song, but maestro didn't accommodate her. In one song, I had the feeling she was dragging to get his attention - but to no avail. The result of having no breath - no support for some passages (although she still did an amazing job). Having seen the show the week earlier, I heard her not miss them - and it didn't seem that she struggled to get a breath in any of the songs then either. I really wished maestro would have been accommodating to the performer, and not been in such a hurry to get home to see Wagnerian Operas on PBS. Other than that, the show was still excellent - and you really should go - if you like dark comedies (stress dark).

Does it seem pointless to hire a photographer for the price of a DSLR camera? Well, a not-so pricey way into the world of DSLRs is this Rebel T3i with lens for only $420 at Abe's of Maine. It's only $20 off the best 2013 Black Friday price and $50 off the next best price online of $470.
Whoa. This makes the cheapest we've seen a refurbished T3i with its kit lens go for by over $100. If you're looking for a cheap way into DSLR photography, improving composition, etc., this might be one of the easiest options. You'd be hard-pressed to find the body alone for this price elsewhere.
Lowest we've ever seen the T3i with kit lens go by...well, $2. That's not to diminish this good deal, though. The Rebel T3i is one of the most popular entry points to digital SLR photography because of its versatility, ease of use, and friendly price point. Today you save $52 at Rakuten compared to anywhere else you'd buy new.
The T3i is one of the most popular entry points into DSLR photography, and today it's tied with its cheapest ever price, last seen three months ago. This is a new condition well-reviewed camera with kit lens to get you started.

Identity Theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in the world and there is so much confusion about it. What is Identity Theft? How does it really happen? Who is really at risk? And finally, what can I do to protect myself?
With ID Theft, you, the victim, must continually prove you are innocent, that you are who you are and that someone else is racking up debt and opening fraudulent accounts. We are all potential victims of this crime and Suzanne Klenk from Washington State Employees Credit Union joined Margaret to tell us how to protect ourselves and our information:
You say that Identity Theft is a Cradle to Grave crime and that protecting your personal information is more important now than ever…Can you explain?
- If you have a social security number you are at risk. Babies are now given Social Security Numbers before they leave the hospital and there are several cases where social security numbers of the deceased have been used, hence the "Cradle to Grave."
- Protecting your personal information is so important right now because there are so many avenues for your information to be compromised.
What can an ID Thief do with your personal information?
· Get fake identification with your name and their picture
· Get a job or file a fraudulent tax return
· Apply for Medical Benefits
· Use your name if arrested
· Use your name for phone or utility payment accounts
· Open new accounts/ take over existing accts/ take out loans
How do they get my information?
- Actually, the most common and easiest way is…..they just ask.
- Go into scams by phone, e-mail
- Dumpster Diving
- Data Breaches
You say there are simple steps to protect yourself and your children from this crime. Let's talks about a few of them:
- Limit the personal information on your checks
- Limit the use of your Social Security Number when in it actually not necessary
- Get a locking mail box or a P.O. Box
- Limit use of your child's Social Security Number
- Have a dedicated credit card for online purchases….small limit.

If anyone knows the dangers of using a hand-held cell phone while cruising around busy streets and highways, you'd think it would be a medical transport driver, but a frightened passenger tells FOX 29 it happened repeatedly.
A Delaware woman says districted drivers put her safety at risk by talking on their cell phones while taking her to medical appointments.
Surgery to remove brain tumors has left Karen, she asked us not to reveal her full identity, with almost no long-distance vision.
"I can't drive at all now," Karen told FOX 29's Bruce Gordon. "No, I can't."
As a Medicaid patient, Karen is assigned several non-emergency medical transport companies to take her to and from her doctor's appointments throughout northern Delaware.
"Basically, you're putting your life in their hands and you're hoping for the best," Karen said,
Most of the services work just fine, then there's Mondlize.
Back in late July and throughout August, Karen says she secretly videotaped several of her trips with Mondlize throughout New Castle County.
At one point, the camera pans over to the rear passenger window so you can see the company name.
"The speed limit on 495 is 65 mph. You can look over and see them doing 75, 85 and they're on the phone. There's one instance of the driver picking up paper-- he's reading while he's driving," Karen said.
Karen says she's complained to the drivers, but they told her that she was in good hands.
She tells us she still uses medical transport services, but has not used Mondlize since shooting the last of these videos.
"I didn't go through and survive all these medical procedures, just to be killed in a car wreck," Karen said.
The brain tumor survivor said her complaints to Mondlize have gotten her nowhere, so we paid a visit to the company's Newark, Delaware office. They were not interested in talking.
Wednesday (83/62): Sun/Clouds
Refreshing Forecast
Wednesday will feature another comfortable day with below average temperatures and low humidity. Highs in the upper 70s/Low 80s. Expect a mix of sun and clouds.

Recent Testimonials
Divorce Mediation
"As the year comes to an end, I can not let another day go by without properly thanking you. The work you did with (my husband) and me during mediation was creative, resourceful and simply clever. You both were attentive to our present and future needs- emotionally, financially and legally.
There were many occasions throughout the time you spent with us where I thought there was no possible way to come to a middle ground. Luckily, with your guidance and perseverance you made the impossible, possible. Thank you … from the bottom of my heart for your determination and consideration while working with us. My gratitude is endless."
Recent Case Results
Divorce after an approximately thirty year marriage. We represented the Wife. The major issue in the case was the family business which was inherited and owned by the Husband and his brother, and the Wife's contribution to that business throughout the marriage due to the fact that she was not an "employee." [Inherited property in RI is not divisible, on its face.]
We used a business evaluation and negotiations with opposing counsel to reach a resolution that awarded the Wife a specific amount of support for a sufficient amount of time to get herself on her feet. She was an artist and needed time to reinvent her business and get it off of the ground so she could be self-sufficient.

True Blood Episode 510
"Gone, Gone, Gone"
Written By: Alexander Woo
Directed By: Scott Winant
Original Airdate: 12 August 2012
In This Episode...
Mike, the coroner, visits Sookie, but it is just to eat her. Luckily she just ordered some Chinese food, and was able to grab a pair of chopsticks and stake him. (I think my priorities are a little jacked up - all I could think was, "That's not realistic. There is no way Sookie could muster enough strength to stab a man - through clothing, skin, muscle, and bones - with a pair of cheap takeout chopsticks.") Anyway, this prompts Sookie to go stay with Jason. While she is packing, he comes over and looks under her bed. Beneath a loose floorboard he discovers a scroll, covered with some sort of ancient glyphs written on it. They bring it to Claude, who recognizes many of the glyphs as being fairy, but can't read it - it is in ye olde faerie. They find a 500 year old fairy who can translate. It turns out to be a contract, drawn up in 1702 by a Stackhouse ancestor. In it, he promises to Warlow the first female to birth a fae heir. And Sookie was the first fairy born since 1702. I guess it skips a lot of generations.
Business is bad at Fangtasia, which pisses off Elijah, the new sheriff. He also has a few decrees for Pam: the Authority has put into effect a procreation mandate. Each vampire is expect to make 30 new baby vampires. If they don't, Elijah is entitled to seize all assets - including Pam's progeny. Pam suggests to Tara that, if need be, they can just leave Bon Temps. Tara refuses to run, so she and Ginger tag team Elijah and behead him. Pam can't be mad - she is proud of her little hellraiser.
Eric is given one last chance to accept Lilith as his lord and savior. She is forced to ingest some of Lilith's blood. Nora takes it too, and the two trip their minds off. Their shared hallucination is that of Godric having his throat ripped out by Lilith. While it is not clear if Eric is a true believer or not, he says he is, and escapes the true death.
Hoyt has decided to go work on an oil drill in Alaska. Before he leaves, he wants Jessica to glamour him to forget both her and Jason. With much sadness, she does as he requests. Before she can get too sad about truly losing Hoyt forever, Bill's guards come to collect Jessica. She arrives at the Authority and is warmly welcomed by Bill. Bill wants Jessica to learn the word of the vampire bible, which reminds Jess of the bible study her parents used to push on her. Still, she is intrigued and pleased to be somewhere safe. Things change when, during an Authority meeting, Russell flies off the handle (as he tends to do). Russell wants to go out on a hunting rampage, while Salome believes they should take a more mainstream approach to proving vampire superiority over humans. Russell reminds her (by throwing her across the room) that he is 3,000 years old and far more powerful than all of them combined.
Luna is desperate to get Emma back. When Sam tells her that Steve is in the area for a TV appearance, they go down to the TV studio and sneak in, disguised as mice. They search his dressing room - no Emma. When Steve comes back unexpectedly, the two shift back into mice and hide in his briefcase, thereby being taken straight to the Authority.
Dig It or Bury It?
I really dug this episode. It was extremely well-paced with engrossing storylines. More than any other episode this season, it also ran the gamut of emotions. I laughed, I cried, I hurled. Okay, I did none of those things, but if I had a heart (instead of an ashy black hole in my chest) I would feel those things.
Ass Factor
There was a fair amount of nudity tonight: Lilith, Luna, Sam. But there was no sex.
With only two episodes left, I am intrigued to see what exactly is going on with Bill. I don't get the sense that he is a true believer, yet I don't think he is just going along with Salome to save his own ass.

Ministry chairwoman gives thanks to community
Greetings and a Happy New Year to each of you.
On behalf of The Community Needs Ministries, which consists of our 13 area churches. I would like to say thank you to each individual, church and business who sponsored and shopped for the children, donated monetary funds and extended love and good will toward those who were in need this past year in the New Washington area.
Out of your generosity, we were able to provide a special blessing for more than 100 children in 2012. I would especially like to extend my gratitude and ask God's blessing upon the New Washington High School boys' and girls' basketball teams for their hard work in assembling food baskets and distributing them to the recipients for this important ministry. Thanks to Coaches May, White, Holloway and Abbott. They have been most helpful to this ministry in 2012.
I would also like to give special thanks to these individuals, businesses and students who sponsored our Community Needs Ministry as listed here: The New Washington State Bank and staff; The Greater Clark Administration Building; Kroger; The Dollar General Store of New Washington; Z & Z Enterprises; New Washington Girl Scout Troop 665; Four Quarters; Charlestown Chiropractic; Doug Ellen and Blake Burgin Farms; Walmart; New Washington High School softball team; New Washington Elementary School Student Council; Charlestown Veterinary Clinic; New Washington High School Fellowship of Christian Athletes; Ladies Auxiliary American Legion; Christy O'Neal and the Clark County F.O.P. Auxiliary 181; Broughton Trucking; The Junior Leaders; Stephanie Caldwell; The Mariners; and Dave Reynolds and Jan Boyer Truck Farms
If I have omitted anyone in error, please accept my deepest apology. None of this would be possible without Our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us the resources and ability to perform this great ministry. May the Lord continue to bless you and keep you as you determine to give to others who are less fortunate in the coming year.
"In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Apostle Paul, Acts 20:35
— Dotty Fields, chairwoman, Community Needs Ministries
Reader concerned about executive orders
Let me visit the U.S. Constitution. The 2nd Amendment states: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
I do not see what is so hard to understand about it. The meaning of infringed; infringed past participle, past tense of infringe (Verb):
1. Actively break the terms of (a law, agreement, etc.): "infringe a copyright."
2. Act so as to limit or undermine (something); encroach on: "infringe on his privacy."
So it says the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be limited.
What is our congressman doing to prevent the passage of an executive order related to gun control? What are they doing to uphold their oath of office? We have a president that is threatening ordering laws to be written and rewritten. Nothing is being done to prevent this.
The constitution does not even give the president the power to issue executive orders, let alone to legislate unilaterally. Alteration of our constitutional rights cannot be made without an amendment to the Constitution.
Please ask Todd Young to uphold his oath of office. Do not allow the U.S. Constitution to become obsolete. Without it, Congress is obsolete. We are obsolete.
— Kathy Heil, Elizabeth

Newburyport Daily News
---- — ROWLEY — Police are reminding residents to lock their windows and doors as they investigate a small string of housebreaks that took place the last week of September.
Rowley police Chief Robert Barker said his department believes three houses, one each on Central Street, Kittery Avenue and Leslie Road, were burglarized on the same day.
"That appears to be the case here because there hasn't been other reports," Barker said.
Jewelry worth at least $1,000 was reported stolen from the Leslie Road and Central Street residences. Nothing was reported missing from the Kittery Avenue residence. In all three cases, access was achieved through windows, Barker added.
The burglaries likely took place during the day while families were out, the chief said. One of the families didn't report the crime until a week after as they were on vacation, according to Barker.
As part of their investigation, police are contacting other police departments and checking area pawn shops.
Barker urges residents to make sure their homes are secure and well-lit during night hours. He also advises trimming back vegetation to eliminate places for suspects to hide.
Anyone with information regarding last month's break-ins or to report any suspicious activity should call the Rowley Police Department at 978-948-7644.

The following is from the Dec. 5, 2007, edition of The Contra Costa Times. Ed Fox, a professor of marketing and director of SMU's JCPenney Center for Retail Excellence, provided expert commentary for this story.
By Blanca Torres
December is here, but many shoppers still consider this an "early" time to begin holiday shopping.
Take, for example, Jennifer Berg of Livermore, who was browsing in Pleasanton's Stoneridge mall recently.
"I'm just kind of starting," she said. "It's earlier than I've ever started before."
Berg said she skips the mad post-Thanksgiving shopping rush and is now looking for bargains and calm afternoons when she can leave her children with a sitter and hit the mall.
"You have that initial burst around Black Friday and then it slows down," said Ed Fox, a professor of marketing and director of the JCPenney Center for Retail Excellence at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. "Increasingly, you're going to see crowds ramp up in two weeks before Christmas. But it's going to be like flicking on a switch."
A survey of retailers by the International Council of Shopping Centers and UBS Securities reported Tuesday that chain store sales fell by 2 percent for the week ended Dec. 1 compared with the previous week.

The War Z has been a controversial zombie game since its inception. The game's producer talks about the latest controversy and comparisons to the popular Day Z mod.
The War Z has been a very controversial game, even before its disastrous launch on Steam earlier this year.
The controversy started when the game was first announced, and people began murmuring about its apparent similarities to Day Z, a popular zombie mod of the war game ARMA II.
When The War Z launched on Steam, many of its advertised features were missing. Valve, the game developer and publisher that runs Steam, ended up pulling the game from its digital store front, though it still has a page there where you can see its dismal 23/100 Metacritic score.
During and after the Steam affair, game producer Sergey Titov seemed unapologetic, apparently baffled by the controversy.
But after numerous interviews and the game getting yanked from Steam, Titov began to change his tune, issuing an open letter to fans and an apology for the game's half-baked release—though one could, if one were so inclined, question the sincerity of that apology. Still, I think Titov and his team do genuinely want to rebuild their and the game's reputation, however steep a hill that may be to climb.
Titov, formerly of League of Legends creator Riot Games, is part of Arktos Entertainment Group. The firm is a "privately held holding company, providing investment as well as creative and production management support for companies in the interactive and online entertainment industries," according to its web page, where it lists the developer Online Warmongers and their title The War Inc. but not The War Z or Hammerpoint.
The Los Angeles based holding company invests in developers of online games, though it appears that licensing out their low-cost game engine is a big part of the company's plans.
Arktos acquired a majority stake in Hammerpoint early on in The War Z's development.
I spoke with Mr. Titov about the game, its similarity to Day Z and what he and Hammerpoint Interactive are doing to fix the problems and get the title back on Steam.
The unfiltered Q&A after the leap.
Forbes: Your initial responses in interviews following The War Z's release on Steam largely seemed to blame gamers for misreading the game description. Why issue an apology now?
Sergey Titov: Well, to begin with, it really was not the intent to blame players, but more to convey that I thought it was more of a misunderstanding versus a deliberate attempt to mislead anyone. I think the problem was in how my answers came across in the Gamespy interview. It wasn't really a formal interview – it was more like an end-of-day skype chat conversation, that was edited to look like an interview. Some of the points were omitted, and it wasn't clearly presented. It was presented to us as a quick chat to get my comments regarding a story that was about to post on their site and we were never told that it was going to be edited, cut and pasted into an interview. YET – we completely acknowledged that yes there were couple of factual mistakes on the sale page that we corrected within the first day of sales. One of the big ones that Gamespy questioned was the statement of "up to 100 player servers." The interesting fact is that during this "interview" I asked Dan if when he reads "up to 100 players" does he expect that there will be a 100 slot server. When he answered yes we turned on some 100 slot servers right on the spot. It was definitely a misunderstanding on our end and one that we remedied immediately. We had recently completed a survey of the community asking what size to limit the servers to and the overwhelming response was to limit to 50 slots.
As for the apology – this was a much bigger thing than just the Steam page. I've evaluated our communication in general and realized that we had made some errors. That if we'd did them differently in the first place we would have avoided a lot of the criticism we've been dealing with recently – both the legitimate and exaggerated. So it was my sincere attempt to explain to our community what happened, and what I personally think about it.
How did you become involved in this project to begin with?
When I left Riot Games back in 2008 I formed a company called Arktos Entertainment Group. Arktos has 2 directives; to find and invest in talented development teams and individuals in order to develop cool online games and, second, to develop technology and IP for a world class online gaming platform. One of the first teams we financed was Online Warmongers; the developer and publisher of a pretty cool f2p shooter game War Inc Battlezone. Internally as part of our Online Gaming Platform we developed a Prototype for a zombie action game primarily for the PS3 as the lead platform but with PC and XBOX support. We thought about transitioning development to the Online Warmongers team but they were too busy with War Inc to get involved at that time, so Arktos turned to Hammerpoint Interactive.
For me personally I like to work with talented people and keep core development groups focused. This can sometimes lead to many of us wearing several hats, and I effectively ended up the public face of The War Z.
Why did you decide to release the game when you did? Typically games aren't released so soon after their alpha phase.
I think it's not an uncommon practice for online games and, technically, we've been "out" for more than two months. Since October 31st, when we opened up our Alpha without any restrictions – anybody could purchase access to the game and was able to play. Our ratio of daily players to monthly players and number of concurrent users to number of daily users were really strong, so we felt it was important for us to "draw a line" and confirm to our players that we were transitioning to the Foundation Release. We wanted our current community to feel comfortable, yet, once again, we probably delivered this message to the core audience, but failed to make this point really clear for the rest of the players and more importantly to new players.
You've said that an online game is never really "finished." If that's the case, how do you gauge when something is ready for launch?
All online games, including The War Z, go through a series of stages in the development process in which players (other than the dev team) are participating in the game. The most significant stage is "open beta," when the game is pretty much able to be accessed by the gaming community at large. Some online games remain in this "open beta" stage for quite an extended period while making, in some cases, millions of dollars, while the game is technically still in "open beta" (just one example of this is Farmville that stayed in open beta for about two years). This differs drastically from the retail "boxed product" model (think Call of Duty or other similar titles) where consumers purchase a "final" version that is designed to provide X number of hours of single-player gameplay and may or may not have a multiplayer component as well.
What we at Hammerpoint were striving for was to deliver a live and playable product with the core features intact. Did this mean that development was complete? Absolutely not and we never intended for it to be perceived as a finished game. We did not want to use the term "beta" so we instead called it the "Foundation Release." The one thing we did not anticipate (and some members of the press called attention to this) was that the term "Foundation Release" was not familiar enough amongst players and we neglected to communicate effectively what was included and what was still in development. At the end of the day it did create some controversy, but fortunately the game is still doing very well and our community continues to grow. We are still developing and releasing new updates with features, content, fixes, etc. and we will continue on that path of development.
Why do you think there has been so much controversy surrounding this game?
I think that's pretty clear :) – one big reason is because of the obvious similarities with Day Z – both theme wise and more importantly – time wise. But to be honest – Day Z mod is a love/hate type of thing for gamers. There're people who fanatically love it, so when we announced The War Z and described what the game is about, what our timeline for launch was, etc – it instantly became a love/hate thing too. For a long time I thought "okay, this is fine, we don't care about those guys anyway" – but ultimately I was wrong – we should have put much more effort into explaining the differences between the two products.
When people started to play The War Z, they realized that it's pretty different from Day Z in many ways, but it's still generating the same love/hate thing – they either really like The War Z – and they like the choices we've made or they're saying "okay this is nothing like Day Z, so I hate it". We have a very solid community right now and the game itself is doing GREAT. We're getting thousands of new players every day, and the majority of them are coming to the game by word of mouth from existing players. Though, according to some press, we're pretty much dead and will never recover, but for us it's like "huh?" It's very weird to see those two different worlds coexist together. At the same time it's a very good lesson for us, and ultimately it's a price we've paid for pushing forward all guns blazing instead of choosing a more cautious approach. We really wanted to get to market first and in the process we didn't pay as close attention to detail as we should have and we also neglected to communicate as we should have.
How did the name "The War Z" come up? Were you worried that it would be compared to Day Z or the book and upcoming film World War Z?
Myself and a couple of other guys who financed The War Z were also investors in "The War Inc," a free-to-play shooter. Sooo…. We had a plan of continuing with "The War …" theme so natuarally "The War" + Z – made perfect sense for us. And yes we had an idea that some people that didn't know this backstory would jump straight into conclusions that the title is mimicking either Day Z or WWZ – but we really loved this title. We registered the domain in May 2012 I think, until that the project was only known as "zombie game 1."
What makes The War Z unique? Even the Day Z creator [Dean Hall] has expressed anger over the similarities. Can you understand the concern people have?
When we started development we wanted to reach two groups of players – general fans of zombie games and also fans of more persistent, survival/"rebuild society" type of games. DayZ fans seem to fall into both groups so we knew right away that there would be comparisons between the two games. When we first announced, DayZ still existed only as a super popular MOD for ARMA2, but when we heard they were doing a standalone version we figured that two games within the genre would just provide more for the audience. I do believe that there are some significant differences between the two games. First and foremost, we tried to create more of an MMO experience with multiple characters, advanced inventory management, moving items between characters, offering a variety of tools to use for cooperation or competing against other survivors. A large part of what we feel gameplay will evolve into is players forming communities and clans within the game and then creating their own instances on smaller maps – we call them "Strongholds." Our focus is less on providing an ultra realistic, hardcore simulation and more on a sandbox environment that can be enjoyed by a wide variety of players. I think that as we release more content and more features in the coming weeks that the gap between the two games will widen and become much more visible.
In any case, we've always felt that there is room for both games and there will be certain players that play one or the other – and some players that enjoy both!
What led to the game being pulled from Steam? What steps do you plan on taking to get it reinstated? Are you working with Valve on this?
When we launched the game on Steam, we got some feedback that people were not okay with the game description and that it was creating confusion as to what people were purchasing. We changed it within the first 16 hours after launch. It had already been picked up by several media sources, some which were just reporting news and some that seemed to have a bit of a biased slant. As result – Steam received an larger than ordinary number of support requests tickets, and this led to a temporary removal from the store until all those support issues will are resolved. We recognize that Steam has a responsibility to it's customers first and making sure that customers get exactly what is described. We're working with Steam on both of these issues. We expect to have everything sorted out very soon.
Tell me about some of the changes going on inside the company and the efforts underway to get the game back on Steam.
Right now Hammerpoint Interactive (developer of the game) is adding new talent to the team, adding more resources to the development of the game, and focusing on completing the features that are most in demand by the players. At the same time, OP Productions (publisher for The War Z) is completely revising its process when it comes to communication and more importantly community management and customer support. We are also aggressively taking measures to ensure the best possible game experience for our customers and OP Productions is currently implementing a very robust, enterprise-class solutions procedure to ensure that we can handle any possible issues in a speedy fashion.
As for Steam, the game is continuing to grow on a daily basis – we're adding thousands of new players every day. Right now we want to ensure that we are meeting the expectations of the players who buy the game from our own website and also meet the expectations of the Steam community.
So what about concrete steps?
First of all we've made sure that description of the game in Steam store is in line with game features that are already available in a game build, and exclude features that are coming soon or being tested right now. We've spent last month making sure that game will meet and hopefully exceed Steam community expectations, to make sure that it will include features that our community asked for. We're preparing large patch for a game right now, and once it's released, we'll evaluate if it's meets Steam community expectations.
At same time we've added feature for a players who already bought game on our website and want to access War Z from within Steam. For all players we allow them to get Steam activation key to download game from Steam and use Steam Wallet for in game purchases.
How will you ensure the micro-transactions in War Z don't result in pay-to-win? Why include micro-transactions in a game you have to purchase in the first place?
So from our perspective, Pay-to-Win is offering (for real world currency) in-game items or abilities that will give a player a significant advantage in the game that other players will not have if they don't purchase. In other words, selling something that can't be acquired by investing time or "grinding" in the game. Also, the acceptance of a "pay-to-win" model is very different in different cultures. With The War Z we wanted players to be able to acquire the same or similar items as could be purchased, by simply investing time into the game. Most of the items for sale in the game store are can also be found in the game world. Some are definitely more rare and will require a significant investment of time. For the items that are unique to the store, it is primarily cosmetic and there is always an in-game alternative that will provide the same gameplay effect without spending anything. The idea of the store in The War Z was more of a "pay-for-convenience" in order to save time.
As for the business model, we looked at all of the different models used for supporting an online game, including selling for a higher "retail" price and then charging a subscription, to an initial purchase and then selling "DLC" or "Expansions," to going free-to-play with a robust in-game economy that would require players to spend money in order to continue playing. We opted for a meld (as some other large titles have done) by setting a reasonable purchase price and providing all content updates for free. The in-game transactions are there to continue to provide revenue to support development as long as there is a community playing the game. Ultimately, the in-game transactions are just an option for the player and only a small percentage of our players are spending on microtransactions. They also speak with their wallets and let us know what is working and what is not. If they are happy we see microtransaction revenues increase, if they are not we see the opposite.
Are you working on any other projects currently?
We currently have two more titles being developed by Hammerpoint Interactive – they are in various stages of preproduction. Hammerpoint is taking a much more careful approach with those titles, so I can't speak about details right now. It is also unclear if Hammerpoint is going to operate those titles by themselves, or rely on a third party publisher/operator as was the case with The War Z ( published worldwide by OP Productions LLC ). We're going to announce those titles later this year. All I can say right now is that both titles will be Free to Play games.
Yup, business as usual at Hammerpoint.
I got bookmarked a link to their trademark report file from one of the threads on the subject that was deleted. They received the order on the 15th of november and had a 90 days probation period to place an appeal or rename their product/brand/whatever (I'm no legal buff).
Anyway the probation period ended on the 15th of the month so I'm not quite sure what it means for the game iself.
Considering it's the US trademark office, I'd hope the information on that report file is legit. Afterall the forumer who originally posted the link got banned immediately.
As did I earlier today for doing the very same thing. I've been playing since early October, and until this past week, a very ardent supporter. The developers and moderators evasiveness has become downright suspicious.
I've got major trust issues.
However I never saw anything convincing from Hammerpoint Interactive/Sergei Titov/Online Warmongers, so I never bought WarZ and never felt scammed.
When we first heard about their game, was May 16 2012, when their lead artist posted on a forum in a DayZ mod thread, saying they were thinking of making something similar.
A month later we got the very first WarZ pressrelease/interview, where Sergei Titov listed 10-20 bullet points, revealing WarZ as a bigger game world than DayZ, twice as big(400 squre kilomters vs. DayZ's 225), server populations six times larger than DayZ(250 vs. DayZ's 40 players). He also claimed the major difference was that while DayZ was only a mod, WarZ had been designed from scratch as a standalone product and had been in developmet for years.
With every new interview, Sergei Titov continued his backhanded praise for DayZ, using DayZ as a stepping stone, promising bigger and better things to come. He repeated his personal mantra, until it became the motto for WarZ fans:
DayZ is a mod, WarZ is a game.
After establishing this, he then proceeded to ask people to pre-order his game, asking for money while only delivering a few screenshots and his list of promises. He offered different pricing models from 19,99 to 59,99 and each price was posted below a price indicating early pre-orders would receive a 10 dollar discount, which everyone had soon forgotten, when he released WarZ on Steam for merely 13,99 with a crossed over 14,99, indicating you'd make a 1 dollar bargain.
Sergei's problems with steam arose, when he continued the promises he made back in July, saying WarZ offered players 400 sqaure kilometers and 250 player servers, which turned out to be somewhat completely untrue. The Steam sales page was edited three times, because the game was removed from Steam.
-At first the Steam sales promised: A 400km^2 game world.
-Which were quickly edited to: Between 100 and 400km^2.
-And finally ended at: More than 100km^2.
So while Sergei Titov had promised 400km^2 for six months and 250 player server, at their Steam launch they were actually only delivering 50 player server and Sergei Titov himself, later confirmed that their only map "Colorado" was much smaller than the 400km^2 and even smaller than the 10km^2. I think consensus places their game world somewhere between a very pessimistic 10km^2 and a very optimistic 70km^2.
Sergei Titov attempted to blame a non-existing marketing team for the mix up, however in the six months, Sergei Titov has been the sole spokesman, the public voice of Hammerpoint Interactive and he, himself has been repeating the "sexed up" numbers. While their Steam page was busy getting edited, their own website, which still promised 400km^2, kept promising 400km^2 for another two weeks.
As for the server capacity they initially promised 250 player servers or as Sergei Titov said in a PC Gamer interview. "Even on servers with 200 players, you'll only come across other players every 15 minutes."
After chargin $50 for pre-orders/alpha access to players where first offered 30 player servers, which were clearly not 400km^2 in size, infact only 30% the small map was playable, so whenever you logged into a server, you would instantly get killed by another player, because the experience was so confined. When they later unlocked the "full" small sized map, they attempted to increase the player number to 70 players per server, which released an outcry for refunds in such a large scale, they lowered the player limit to 50 players.
Or as Sergei Titov described it: "We offered 100 player server, but when we asked the community they preferred a 50 player limit."
And the reason they preferred a 50 player limit, was because WarZ delivered such a small map, that 100 players made the experience completely unbearable.
Basically Sergei Titov initially promised a game was was bigger and better than a user mod for a 2009 game, but delivered something, which at best were half as small and lacking in every aspect of what the "mere mod" delivered. The only thing WarZ was better at, was charging money from their community. Asking they to pay for gear, ammunition, weapons, food in a game where the purpose is to scavenge for gear, ammunition, weapons, food in order to survive or to "win."
WarZ is simply the gaming industry's version of The Emperor's New Clothes.
It exposed the gaming press a toothless and uncritical, while they decided to slaughter WarZ in their January 2013 reviews, they had all been overtly neutral and positive, until consumers demanded Steam took action against the obvious false advertising. We really didn't see much critical thinking before Steam opened the ball and stated the obvious.
It also exposed gamers and their willingness to uncritically throw money after promises, which were too good to be true. You have to remember some of us call this B.S. already in May 2012, when we compared what their engine was capable of against, what they promised and we were only offered, screenshots, which reused artwork from their free-to-play title: War Inc. Battlezone.
While Sergei Titov is busy juggling with completely unheard LLC companies such as Hammerpoint Interactive or Online Warmongers, which all through WarZ's development haven't had any traces on an online presence, you have to ask yourself, if they are real actual companies, you know with offices, plants and coffey kitchens or if they simply exist as freelancers on a shelf somewhere.
As I write this, I felt obligated to check if Hammerpoint Interactive still were nowhere to be found and miraculously they have finally appeared on the internet.
I invite you to check out http://hammerpointinteractive.com/ and witness their impressive display out the world. Lo and behold!
* = indicates I wish, I could edit some of the most obvious misspellings :)
I really hope that you're planning to follow-up on this with another opinion piece, and not just let this interview be the end of the current discussion. As it stands, it just reads like a Press Release.
Yes, I remember that, and it was a good article. But I think that the "information" you were given during the interview also needs to be called-out, especially in light of the comments here about the servers.
Their newest stunt is the server rentals. Originally they were going to put smaller servers in (eg. 15 person servers and so forth) and a good low cost (about 50c per slot, give or take).
Now though, the smallest server for rental is 50 person, and the prices are at the $1.50 per slot mark.
So yeah, it's a joke. They charge more than DayZ servers but offer substantially less for your money.
Echoing Martin McKay's and Beth Hunter's sentiments. Stuff needs to be challenged with this character.
The "Screenshots" you have provided for The War Z are not in-game screenshots at all and and have been proven to be doctored images.
What you are displaying is concept art at best, I believe you are misleading people with these Images and they should be corrected ASAP.
