Helen Allingham Biography
Helen Mary Elizabeth Paterson was born on the 26th of September, 1848 in the small village of Swadlincote, near Burton on Trent in Derbyshire, England. She was the eldest of seven children born to Alexander Henry Paterson, a rural physician, and Mary Chance Herford, daughter of a Manchester wine merchant. Within her first year of her life, the Patersons moved to Altrincham, Cheshire where Helen's father set up a medical practice and the young family grew and prospered. It was during these years that young Helen's interest and talent in art blossomed, inspired by her maternal grandmother Sarah Smith Herford, and especially her aunt Laura Herford, both accomplished artists of their day.
At age thirteen, Helen's carefree childhood was shattered by the death of her father. While battling selflessly to treat local victims during a severe diphtheria epidemic, Dr. Paterson succumbed to the disease himself in May of 1862, along with Helen's three year old sister Isabel. The young family moved shortly thereafter to Birmingham where their Paterson aunts helped provide for them. As Helen's artistic talents continued to grow, she enrolled in the Birmingham School of Design and at age seventeen secured a place in the Royal Female School of Art in London. A year later in 1867 she was accepted on her first try into the prestigious Royal Academy Schools, a door first opened to women by Helen's aunt Laura just a few years before.
The famed Royal Academy School attracted many visiting masters, and young Helen was profoundly influenced by the teachings of Frederick Walker, Sir Frederick Leighton, and Sir John Everett Millais, co-founder of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Tuition at the Royal Academy was free, but Helen still needed income to pay for her accommodations and expenses. She sought work with engraving firms, sketching figures and scenes in black & white, and in 1869 was commissioned by the Once A Week magazine for four full-page illustrations. Her work was well received, leading to more commissions by other periodicals and children's books while she continued her schooling three days a week.
In 1870 Helen was hired as one of the founding staff members - and only woman - on The Graphic, one of a new breed of large-scale, high quality illustrated weekly magazines. Commissions to illustrate books and periodicals continued to pour in and by 1872 Helen decided to cease her schooling at the Academy and work as a commercial artist. Her prestigious commissions included illustrations for Thomas Harding's new novel, Far From the Madding Crowd, and for a series of girl's novels by Juliana Ewing including Six to Sixteen and A Flat Iron for a Farthing. She enrolled for evening classes at the Slade School and worked alongside Kate Greenaway, with whom she became a life long friend. Helen's work was now bringing her into contact with many of London's prominent writers and artists, and inevitably her path crossed that of the renowned Irish poet and editor of Fraser's Magazine, William Allingham. They married on August 22nd, 1874.
Born in Ballyshannon, Ireland, William Allingham was nearly twice Helen's age at the time of their marriage. Twenty-four years her senior, he was a well established figure in London's literary circles and was close friends with Thomas Carlyle, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Robert Browning, John Ruskin, and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The newly wed couple took residence in Trafalgar Square, Chelsea, to be near William's dearest friend, the octogenarian philosopher Carlyle. Now free from the daily need to earn a living, Helen left her job at The Graphic and turned to her true love, watercolours. Two of her watercolour paintings, The Milkmaid and Wait For Me, were accepted for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1874 and sold during the exhibition, bringing her commissions for further paintings. With the sponsorship of the eminent watercolourist Alfred Hunt she achieved the rare honor of associate status in the Royal Watercolour Society in 1875, and later became the first woman to be admitted to full membership.
Marriage brought children for Helen but did not hinder her career in art. Her first son, born in November 1875, was named Gerald Carlyle in honor of the great sage. A daughter christened Eva Margaret and known as "Evey" followed in February, 1877, and finally Henry William arrived in 1882. During the seven years the Allinghams lived in London, Helen exhibited more than a hundred watercolours, some depicting her own children as models. Her early work tended to feature large figures in a landscape, but later, influenced by their holidays in the country, her style shifted more to smaller figures with emphasis on the rural scene. With the death of their dear friend Carlyle in 1881, the family decided to leave London and move to a permanent home in a small hamlet called Sandhills near Witley in Surrey. It was here that Helen developed her fame and reputation for painting cottages.
The years at Sandhills were some of the happiest and most prolific for Helen and William. The peaceful surroundings were quite conducive to William's poetry and Helen's painting, and she did many watercolours of the countryside, flower gardens, her children and, most of all, the numerous old picturesque country cottages that surrounded them. Helen's cottage paintings became very popular back in London and in 1886 she was invited to hold a one-woman exhibition titled Surrey Cottages by the Fine Art Society in London. Her devotion to cottages, however, was not merely for the sentimental pleasure of an industrialized London society. Railway lines were cutting a swathe through the countryside, bringing a swelling middle class seeking new comfortable country homes. The old thatched cottages that stood for hundreds of years were now being modernized or even demolished at a rapid pace. Helen set out to immortalize these ancient bastions, capturing every detail in extraordinary accuracy with a warm, sympathetic style unmatched by other artists of the time. She traveled the countryside, staying just ahead of the builders and wrecking balls, painting outdoors with a pallette of just nine colors. While she would add figures and occasionally reverse modernization by restoring thatch or window latticework, she was careful to keep idealization to a minimum. To this day her works are studied by architects to better understand the construction techniques of a lost time.
By 1888 William's health was beginning to fail and the couple decided to move back to London to be near their many friends and provide for their children's education. They took up residence in Hampstead, but Helen continued her excursions back to Surrey and Kent by train to paint. In November, 1889 William died, leaving Helen with a young family and very little money. She was now dependent once again on her painting skills and applied herself prolifically, often fetching hefty sums for her ever popular cottage pictures. In 1890 the Royal Society of Watercolours finally opened their membership to women, and Helen had the honor of being the first elected into the Society.
Throughout the ensuing years Helen continued to devote herself to her family and her painting, sometimes traveling to Ireland, France and Venice for new subjects. She exhibited her beautiful country watercolours every year in London and her cottage scenes grew in popularity. Helen collaborated with Marcus B. Huish for a book about English country life titled "Happy England", published in 1903 and featuring some 80 colour plates of Helen's watercolours. In 1905 she worked with her brother Arthur Paterson on a book titled "The Homes of Tennyson" containing 20 colour plates. She also edited several books of William's poetry, and provided another 64 pictures for a book by Stewart Dick titled "The Cottage Homes of England" published in 1909. While never wealthy, Helen and family were making a good living and enjoying their many friends in both London and Surrey.
Helen continued to paint and exhibit her work right up to the end of her life. On September 28th, 1926, Helen Allingham died of a sudden illness while visiting an old friend at Valewood House in Haslemere, just a few miles from her old country home in Sandhills. She was 78 years old.

Thoughts and Reflections on the Social Impact Design Summit
At the recent Social Impact Design Summit in New York, organized by the Smithsonian's Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, one issue that received attention was the need to build local capacity so that projects can be self-sustainable. Any successful model should be built on local capacity, knowledge, and engagement.

Past the local railroad history and the antique toys, patrons can feast their eyes on everything from medals and patches to uniforms and helmets to weapons galore. For about two months museum visitors have the opportunity to get a sense of the history of the military.
"There's quite a big military presence in Nevada so we thought having this exhibit would be especially cool for them," office manager Anthea Humphreys said.
The military exhibit not only features relics from the United States but also from the other Allied forces, Japan and Nazi Germany. The Japanese Nambu Type 14 pistol, used until Japan's surrender in 1945, and America's M1 Garand rifle are two of the several guns on display.
Aside from weapons, propaganda posters encouraging Americans to buy war bonds "every payday" and an old Life magazine from 1942 featuring an American soldier on its cover also grace the walls of the exhibit.
But the exhibit isn't limited to World War II memorabilia. It also features items that date to the 1800s. Patrons visiting the museum can see war evolve from the 19th century to both World Wars to the present day.
For a local touch, the exhibit features a Nevada National Guard uniform used from 1883 to 1903. The story of the Spirit of Sparks also graces the exhibit. According to the display, the Spirit of Sparks was a B-25J North American Mitchell Bomber. Sparks citizens donated both their time and money to raise more than $600,000 to purchase the aircraft for the U.S. Army Air Corps. The Spirit of Sparks flew in about 150 combat missions over Italy and southern Europe until being scrapped in Italy at the end of World War II.
A painting of the Spirit of Sparks by Robert Schweitz, who flew 69 missions in the aircraft during the invasion of Italy in 1944 and 1945, is also on display along with a model and photos of the plane so patrons can see just what it looked like.
Nearly 30 photographs of current servicemen and women hang in the exhibit, as well. Humphreys said this part of the exhibit will be permanent and all military personnel are encouraged to drop off a photo so it too can be hung.
Most of the items in the exhibit are from the private collection of two of the museum's volunteers, Humphreys said.
Sparks Heritage Museum is at 814 Victorian Avenue. Entrance costs $3 for adults, and is free for children 12 and younger and military personnel in uniform. For more information call 355-1144.

The School of Nursing mission, philosophy and program outcomes are congruent with those of Jacksonville University and consistent with the professional nursing standards and guidelines for the preparation of nursing professionals.
Jacksonville University School of Nursing values the diverse backgrounds and experiences of its students and emphasizes the importance of a liberal arts foundation, scholarly inquiry, engaged learning opportunities and clinical application in the professional socialization and development of nursing students.
Mission of the School of Nursing
Jacksonville University School of Nursing is committed to the success of each student as a self-assured, competent, caring professional nurse, who practices in an evolving, complex health care environment, provides leadership to promote health among culturally diverse people and promotes the advancement of nursing knowledge through evidence-based practice and life-long learning.
School of Nursing Philosophy
Jacksonville University School of Nursing faculty values the diverse backgrounds and experiences of its students and emphasizes the importance of a liberal arts foundation, engaged learning, scholarly inquiry, clinical excellence, and the socialization of students into the caring practice of professional nursing.
The faculty believes that baccalaureate nursing education is the entry level into professional practice and that graduate education is necessary for advanced nursing practice. The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program prepares professional nurses as self-assured, competent generalists who think critically, engage in clinical inquiry, communicate effectively, and assess and manage the health needs of clients in a variety of settings.
The Graduate programs prepare professional nurses to assume leadership roles in a global society, think critically, communicate effectively, and practice in advanced roles. Graduates evaluate health issues of clients, institutions, and communities, and develop collaborative, innovative strategies that effect change and promote evidence-based practice. Graduates promote health, advance nursing knowledge, impact health policy, and commit to lifelong learning.
The philosophy of the School of Nursing is illustrated by a four-point star. The star represents the essential components of the nursing program. Caring and engaged learning emanate from the center of the star and support students' development of competence in scholarly inquiry, clinical excellence, leadership, and health and education technology.
Caring is an inherent characteristic of nursing and is demonstrated through compassionate concern to protect and enhance human dignity. Caring is present in all aspects of nursing and encompasses being fully present to meet the holistic needs of the individual person, family, and community. Faculty believes that caring is cultivated and refined through education and enacted through values and behaviors. Faculty encourages students to maintain balance in their personal and professional lives through continued self- examination and fosters supportive and nurturing relationships with nursing students serving as mentors and role models in the classroom and clinical areas.
Faculty believes that engaged learning is an essential strategy to gain knowledge that leads to excellence in nursing practice. Elements of engaged learning include creative inquiry, a community of interdisciplinary scholars, diverse thinking, questioning, and application of concepts to experiential learning, such as clinical practice, internships, externships, and community service. Faculty facilitates engaged learning by serving as role models of lifelong learning, establishing practice partnerships for learning experiences, and fostering a learning environment of mutual respect. Engaged learning and caring influence all aspects of professional nursing and is demonstrated by excellence in scholarly inquiry, clinical excellence, leadership, and health and education technology.
Faculty believes scholarly inquiry in nursing is the continual search for knowledge and application of knowledge to professional practice. Faculty fosters an appreciation for scholarly inquiry important to evidence-based practice and the advancement of professional nursing and encourages students to engage in research and scholarly activities. Faculty believes that graduates value the importance of lifelong learning and will contribute to the body of nursing knowledge.
Faculty believes clinical excellence is demonstrated by the transfer of knowledge from theoretical courses to professional practice and is exemplified by the stellar reputation of the rigorous nursing programs at Jacksonville University. Clinical excellence encompasses professionalism, effective communication and interpersonal skills, diagnostic acumen, skillful negotiation of the health care system, a scholarly and caring approach to clinical practice, and passion for the profession of nursing. Students develop clinical excellence through comprehensive learning opportunities provided by practice partnerships with various health care organizations.
Leadership is an essential quality in professional nursing. Nurses serve as formal and informal leaders in the workplace and the community as patient advocates, change agents, conflict mediators, and political activists. The faculty believes that leadership can be taught and is developed through classroom and clinical activities, role modeling and mentoring others, and involvement in professional activities and organizations.
Faculty believes that technology is vital in academic teaching and professional practice. Faculty pursues technological initiatives for innovative and creative teaching and facilitates teaching and learning through online, web-based, and simulation technologies. Faculty expects students to be adept in the use of current and evolving technologies in practice settings.
The curricular progression fosters professional socialization for future nursing roles and responsibilities within the global community. As students learn and mature in nursing knowledge and ability, they practice as professional nurses, provide leadership to promote and improve health, and promote the advancement of nursing through life-long learning.

Prep football schedules see considerable change2:14 am | May 30, 2013
Summer vacation, which has officially arrived for TSSAA athletics, is the serpent that draws high school sports fans away from their Garden of Eden.
The start of a new year, however, tends to sneak up like a snake in high grass.
With that in mind, the schedule-makers have spoken for football — and the breakdown for Carter and Johnson County schools is more than noteworthy.
Each of our local teams will play in Week Zero this year, with EHS (vs. Daniel Boone) and Johnson County (at Tennessee High) starting off with the same opponents they did the last two years.
While Hampton entertains familiar foe Unicoi County, Cloudland (vs. Avery County) and Happy Valley (at Volunteer) will get things rolling against non-traditional adversaries. Unaka has never engaged Oliver Springs in gridiron battle, but hosts the formidable Bobcats in its opener.

Jun 24, 2013It is a perfect game for just to have fun. With it's almost no storyline and only a lot of guns, against a lot of zombies with 4 of your friends makes this game a must play.
Jul 11, 2013j'aime beaucoup ce jeu le contenu est plus variées ont y retrouve les épisodes de son opus précédent la qualité graphique est tous aussi mieux un bon jeu auquel les fans de zombies ne risqueront pas de se lassés
Jul 12, 2013In all fairness, the game is almost 4 years old at the time of this review and things like the graphics are somewhat forgivable, however even the for the period, they are a little light. The AI is tremendously stupid and the UI is nonexistent. I was really hoping for something more than a simple and random shooter, spraying away at zombie body parts. At first the spray and pray is entertain however quickly looses its luster. The other players can get extremely annoying, especially if they leave their mic open. The direction and mission focus of the game is completely mind boggling at first and you literally have no idea in the world as to where to go or the point of your actions. The storyline pretty much starts and stops with the introduction/advertisement cinematic.… Expand
Jul 14, 2013Where to begin...
Left 4 Dead 2 Is a Co-op zombie shooter like no other.
It involves elements such as: forcing the player to make a hard choice using the last medical kit on yourself or a teammate, both of you are badly wounded, going back for a player that was downed right when the escape vehicle arrives.).
An A.I Director that places the zombies, health items and weapons, Based on how the survivors are doing. Last stage felt like cake-walk?
The A.I Director makes sure items are harder to find and increases the amount of zombies spawned.
Unique zombies called "special infected" are also waiting for you in the shadows.
Ranging from the long-tongued "Smoker", to the large-armed "Charger", to the hulking mas of muscle known as the "Tank".
The weapons have 2 to 3 tiers of effectiveness, (damage, mix of the two, accuracy) and in the vast weaponry of Left 4 Dead 2.
You'll be able to find assault rifles, pump and full auto shotguns, sniper rifles, SMGs and even grenade launchers and M60 machine guns! There's also grenade-like weapons such as the molotov.
There's lots more to talk about, like the ability to modifiy your game so that you're holding sliver M1911's instead of a glock and USP45 or playing on an entirely user-made map. But there are some things to find for yourself..
Overall, this game gets a 8 out of 10.
The game is innovative and full of modifications, but as you play into your 100th hour.
You can memorize events, event triggers and Tank spawning positions. As well as the shortest route on a stage and where all the weapon and item spawning points are, so that destroys the scavenging aspect. So online Co-op with random players and the random horde events are the only thing you can count on being unexpected.
These are only my thoughts, try it out for yourself at a friends house or when a steam free weekend event occurs.… Expand
Jul 15, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Welcome to your South eastern part of America filled with zombies, Left 4 Dead 2 is filled with many experiences, starting in the region of Savannah, Georgia to the end of New Orleans, Louisiana. The characters itself is amazing, four character with terrific characteristics, Ellis, a redneck that has a very big crush on Zoey a character from the first game, Coach, a wise man, known for his cheeseburgers, Rochelle, a normal girl that is apart of News 10, and works as a producer, and Nick, your average guy that mocks every word you say, and as well for the Left 4 Dead characters there is Zoey, a teenage girl, working in college, she watchs MANY horror/zombie movies, meaning she is all ready for the zombie apocalypse, Bill, a elder of the whole group, like Coach, he is always watching for whats going to happen, Louis, a pill addict, or in a serious way, a business manager, very optimistic and positive, and Francis, a though man, but with a negative attitude with the whole team. The other thing is the game's plot, amazing traveling in the North east, and as I said before, the South east, I'd say, use your $20 on this game, I SWEAR, you will not regret it.… Expand
Jul 16, 2013To keep it sweet and short, Left 4 Dead 2 is an excellent single and multi-player zombie slayer. Carrying over most of the L4D1 content, the game is quite intense (maybe to gory for the squeamish), fast paced, and absolutely FILLED with enough things to shoot at with your friends.
Jul 30, 2013Before I start, I would just like to say this is not a bad game, however it is an incredibly overrated game. I have played this game extensively- especially with friends. Despite this it is not deserving of a 8 or even 7 out of 10.
First off; all the zombies feel like cardboard, all weapons rip them to pieces with little or no effort, there is little difference from the first Left 4 dead, the physics doesn't quite feel right- as if the earth's gravitational field strength has decreased since the zombie outbreak. This game would never be good without friends, no seriously lone wolves barely touch the game.
The main reason distinguishing this from a 5/10 is the fact that it has an extensive modding scene- the only thing that keeps the game going...… Expand
Aug 9, 2013This game is a great sequel to Left 4 Dead. It is much better though, due to improved AI and level dynamics (levels can play differently every playthrough). After you have completed the game, and start all over again, it will be boring, but the dynamics of this game adds extra replay value. It's best played online with friends, but offline, the NPC Players are quite bad.
Apr 15, 2014This game on PC is where you can get the most for your money, steam workshop and mod support increase the games experience by miles. The game is very fun and yet encourages good team work overall. the enemas are well spread out through out the game, rather than 7 tanks coming at you at once.
Aug 15, 2013One of my personal favorite games every.
Left 4 Dead 2 takes the Left 4 Dead series to a whole new level. While the story can be a bit hard to figure out if you don't play it as much as the others, you still can get the full jest of the game. The characters and zombies are unforgettable and put a smile on your face as you blast through waves of zombies and special's with a group of friends as you listen to those zingy one liners they characters love to through out.
As much as I love this game, it does have its flaws. Left 4 Dead 2 can be a real pain if you're playing with bots. They said they upped the A.I upon coming out but that's debatable. The bots tend to get abit lower than stupid and can be a real hassle to try and keep alive. Most of the time its best to just shoot them dead and move on.
While the main story campaigns are nice, its nicer when you have all the custom community created campaigns to play as well. While Valve has tried getting some over to the consoles, it's best you own the PC version if you want to experience this game to the fullest when it comes to mods. After all, this is a Valve game and it was made to be very mod-able for PC. Valve is a PC company, after all.
All in all, its an amazing game to play with a group of friends if you're bored and just want to have fun. If you're very competitive, you can also play the Versus mode which pits a team of humans against a team of player controlled zombies. Very fun, good game to have a good time in. If you don't own it on PC, steam usually puts it on sale for 5 bucks every few weeks.… Expand
Aug 19, 2013Ever wondered its time to join the 'zombpocalypse'? Left 4 Dead 2 is the best place for you. Four survivors with an arsenal of weapon ranging from chainsaw to M60 and lots and lots of Infected trying to hunt you down.
L4D2 picks up where the first game left off, only with new survivors to hunt and be hunted. The short story of the game is spread through 5 chapters (although it was expanded with DLC campaigns). It is not overtly complicated and deep, but it can be suspected for a game of this nature and fairly this is not the most important part of this game. On normal settings the campaign can be completed around 4 hours or so, if you have access to the DLC campaigns it will extend the fun to 6-7 hours. Amping up the difficulty will increase the challenge and frustration originating from the retries you have to take to complete the chapters. While the story is not the richest out there, the game features some amazing voice over and writing. The characters are funny, witty and believable in the world of the game of course.
When you (if you at all) breeze through the campaign with bots this is when the real fun begins. Online multiplayer is its name. Simply, this game is meant to be played with other humans. First of all, the AI is not horrible, bud it is bad enough that you will be constantly ripping out your hair while playing the game SP (especially on harder difficulties) Not to mention the Infected AI is much better. Second, the shooting is at its best when you are surrounded with real humans trying to help you survive or chasing you as Infected. Yes, there are game modes (Versus, Scavange, etc.) where you can show your skills as a Spitter, Charger or any type of Special Infected.
The challenges will just never end with this game. You can play different MP modes like Versus or the newly introduced Scavange (collecting cans and filling up the generator while the Infected are trying to stop you). Or if you want you can just play the campaigns again with human help. If you are tired you can jump on community servers or try the endless number of easy-to-use mods created for the game by the community.
Here we are again. Valve have proved again that they are indeed the masters of Multiplayer Madness. After hits like Counter Strike, Team Fortress we have the upcoming wave of games like the L4D2 series and DotA 2. While the SP mode is not much engaging and falls short of expectations and you may not care about the characters in the end, if you ever want to just jump in and oppose the endless hordes of zombies while having super fun, this is the ultimate and most definite place to start.
Rating: 85/100; Replay Value: 5/5; To Beat: 6 hours (SP with the campaign DLCs); Played on: normal.… Expand
Aug 26, 2013Valve has never failed to dissapoint me and L4D2 is no exeption. When you get into this game there are alot of options, if you need help deciding which level to pick IMO the best one is blood harvest but there all great. there really isint much of a story in any of the levels, Turn power on Fight horde get in safe house is usally the drill but nobody judges this game by story exept for the death of Bill:(. The gameplay is really fun and i enjoy searching for the best wepons and just sitting in the starting area just testing wepons. If you are new To pc gaming like Me L4D2 is a good place to start or any valve game is good.One of the problems well not a problem but the graphics are not very good but i look past that and there isint really anything super new from the first game but almost every thing is improved 8.9… Expand
Sep 22, 2013Good.
Its very nice but it lacks some variety.
Fun to play then and now and the first few months of playing it is fun.
It is a great game but not excellent, it is worth the $48.99 but does have its errors.
Such as some of the overpowered zombies like the smoker and charger.
Oct 9, 2013Amazing game, great community and many modifications that can completely change your game style from a new skin to a completely new campaign. This game is great to play with a friend because well your teaming up to kill zombies! Cooperation is a huge thing in this game you run off to far ahead you die you don't talk to your teammates about strategies you die, you don't share supplies with your teammates they die which means you have a better chance of being killed in the long run every second counts in the game and I think its a perfect combination of a horror/survival game to a cooperation game… Expand
Oct 29, 2013Left 4 Dead 2 is probably the best co-op experience you can find. It throws you into the zombie apocalypse, where you have to work with others to survive. Gameplay wise, it is challenging as the many special infected ambush you from all sides, and the annoying common infected just keep coming. Weapons and ammo stacks are scattered for you to find. Gameplay might be slightly repetitive but it doesn't harm that much overall when you play with friends.
Looking at story, you would think that zombie games don't need story to be great. In this case, it is somewhat true. The story is tiny, saying that New Orleans is a safe zone, and the survivors head there. At the same time, you learn more about the people you are playing as and with. The game is also not short on humour with some weird stories of Ellis' friend Keith to the alerts and jokes made by the survivors.
There are many things that are improved upon from Left 4 Dead, improving the AI, adding fresh new zombies to battle and using several techniques to control your weapon choice, and of course melee weapons are added. After that, Valve does an excellent move by taking all the campaigns and characters from the original, add the new mechanics and improvements and put it into one game as a free DLC. A smart and clever move by Valve.
Not forgetting replayability, where the game gets a bit boring after completing all campaigns. However, hopping into the game with friends is always fun and fresh, and you can choose to cooperate or leave each other for dead.
But all this cannot be as great without the giant modding community. The modding community adds many things including humour through character skins, new campaigns to keep you in the game, and small modifications to minor things. With the SDK, many types of weird mods can be created, including mods to change the special infected appearance, alter the music, weapon skins, right down to animations. All this keeps the game fresh and easy to get back to. And it is made easier with the Steam Workshop.
Often updated with new features like mutations, Valve allows you to return to the game with ease. All this plus intense zombie action gives you the grand co-op experience. Play with a friend or alone, it doesn't matter as both will prove fun and satisfying. Grab Left 4 Dead 2 on Steam or try it out during a free weekend.… Expand
Dec 30, 2013For a newbie to PC FPS games, I gotta say, Left 4 Dead 2 is definitely one of the most fun games I have played for the first time. It has great characters, marvelous imagery, incredibly detailed effects, and even more fun than chopping a zombie's head off. Or not.
Nov 29, 2013One of the best cooperative games I have ever played.This title is one of the best Valve games it has good graphics,good optimization and a lot of updates,campaigns and modes also it has workshop.You should definitely try it!
Nov 24, 2013Best co-op game I have played ever. The best part for co-op is that you don't need to be good at it to play. Cause even the strongest player will need your help at times.
Nov 28, 20137.5/10.
It's a fun game, not too special.
Story isn't interesting, and the online is dull after just a few game sessions.
Graphics are quite nice, the variety of zombies is quite fun, weaponry is nice as well.
The game is mostly fun to play with a few friends.
Not a special game, but it is kind of a defining point in zombie gaming.
Jan 13, 2014A entertaining multiplayer game and a good price on Steam. Very entertaining and provides hours of endless zombie killing fun. Has many different weapons, zombies, and game modes. Definitely worth your time and money!
Dec 28, 2013I got this for free with the Steam christmas giveaway, but I didn't enjoy it at all for several reasons:
* Low violence version. They make a game about zombie slaughtering and then self-censor it for certain countries. Why? Not that violence is the only thing that matters in a game, but it's weird as hell when the things you shoot just disappear.
* Weapons can't be zoomed. Shooting just doesn't feel right and surprisingly that's one of the most important aspects of a first person shooter.
* No character advancement. You run through the levels and there are the same weapons everywhere. Killing Floor, where you can get better equipment the more zombies you kill, does it much better. You also can't customize your character's look.
* Zombies are too fast. Even for fast zombies, these zombies are a little too fast.
Get Killing Floor instead, it's much better.… Expand

Feb 24, 2014This game is awesome. So Very Cleverly Designed off the HL2 engine. It has one hell of a Co Op with some very talented artificial intelligence, where if you don't like online, or just want to play with one friend. You can kick some Major Butt. If you go online expect some noobishness. But if you find a good crew, work together, talk on the Mic, you can get through these challenges. Some are outright insane with the Amount of Zombies to Kill. So much fun. Now lets go kill some zombies. remember rule number 1. Cardio. and of course. always, double tap.… Expand
Jan 21, 2014As someone who has never owned the original L4D, this game was amazing. Fantastically balanced levels and a strong emphasis on teamwork. And if you (like me) never bought the original, all those maps are now in the game.
One downside is that the Australian and German versions were censored ( D: ), the other downside is that the graphics kinda suck ( 2006 standard), but it was obvious that they were too busy polishing everything to a blinding shine.… Expand
Mar 8, 2014This is great fun to play with the steam workshop and l4dmaps.com mods and would be a 10/10, but without mods the game can get quite repetitive. The only good non-modded level is Dark Carnival.
Feb 8, 2014Well, it has a very fascinating multiplayer. You can spend hours easily and don't even notice. It has so many mods and maps and they're all great, you'll never be bored. It's really entertaining but I can't say the same thing to single player. After all, forget the single player. Multiplayer will be enough for you. My score is 9 out of 10.
Feb 9, 2014Amazing game, very creative. I cannot wait for the 3rd version to come out, hopefully containing many more weapons, infected character, humans, maps and game modes!
Feb 13, 2014This is very good game. It has a lot of mods wich makes it even better. If you play it with your friends you need a lot of time to get bored of it but in about a month you come back to play and it gets cool again and you just can't stop playing it. Game sometimes (very rare times) lags or it just crahes but that's not a problem. You did great work Valve.
Feb 26, 2014I gave this a 9...because of the online and mutliplayer...which are close to 10s imo.
The solo campaign is an eight. Still fun but does not shine the same.
There is nothing bad to say about the multiplayer. It is fast, fun, crazy and just as good as Left for Dead 1.
For me, L4D 1 and 2 are the genre definer in FPS / Zombie / Survival.
Apr 16, 2014An amazing game, I could play it all day (but I don't have the time, lol). This game kicks ass and it has humor in it too! I recommend getting it on Steam for full experience!
Apr 19, 2014I'm not really the one for blogging, but my professor for one of my college classes asked that I write an Essay review of a video game or movie that I like or dislike. I decided to go with my favorite game, L4D2.
Having been a huge fan of the original Left 4 Dead, I was looking forward to playing its next game, filled with new infected, new survives and new maps to play as well as new features. Aside from the few bugs (and lately playable zombie glitches and unfair favoring by the game during V.S) It is over all my favorite game of all time. Now, there are some things that keep it from being absolutely perfect in my book. The game seems to favor teams ins the V.S match, and the once overpowered Charger has become extremely inaccurate and mostly passes right threw the survives without catching them like it should.
On another note, It pleases me greatly with the PC game's updates. There are now more sayings that the characters like Coach, Ellis, Nick and Roshelle speak out during the game. They have become slightly more vulgar, and a lot more funny in terms of Ellis's random stories with "his buddy Keith" Im delighted to see such an improvement in their voice acting scripts. By far, my favorite saying is Coach's Cotton Candy speech during the Carnival campaign. Sitting on top of the food pyramid, passing judgement on all the lesser foods. Haha, gets me every time!
The game itself is amazing. Its graphics have a good, on the edge of your seat, feel to them. I play almost every night if I can with friends. For PC, people come up with amazing mods for it too! Skins and sounds for both characters and infected, as well as new downloadable maps and weapon skins. One of my favorites is the Pokemon "Gotta Cath'em all" theme song that plays every time the Tank appears in game. The freedom to mod such a good game makes it constantly refreshing. Another one I adore is a skin for the Smoker. This mod turns the Smoker into Slenderman. Always a thrill!
The L4D series should come out with another game, and soon! There are always constant ideas spilling out for new infected. There is always room to improve, even when a game is as good as this one. I'll never stop playing!… Expand
Apr 21, 2014one of the best cooperative games ever, and it has zombies. Awesome. it uses the same engine as other valve games of course, which has a specific charm that I love even though it is not graphically beautiful. its not a realistic zombie game either, but its not intended to be, its intention is to be a fun destroy all sons of **** kind of game, which succeeds in wonderfully. Valve is known to give great story telling as well, which it doesn't do in this game, but still awesome even though not necessarily a masterpiece… Expand
Sep 6, 2011Woah woah woah... time out. All these people complain about L4D2 being the same thing as L4D, but that simply isn't true! At its core, yes, L4D2 is the same but so is every game on the market. Halo is still a shooter, Command and Conquer is still a strategy game, Starcraft is still epic, Episode 3 still isn't released, and Left 4 Dead is still a co-op zombie survival game. Just because Valve didn't go for L4D2: Cooking Mama as their sequel doesn't mean they're ripping us off. This game easily has enough new content to teach Infinity Ward and Treyarch a thing or two.
Valve obviously worked hard to make the original experience much more fun in every aspect and they definitely delivered. The only thing that I would have docked a point for is not having enough maps, but free DLC took care of that. Besides, I had to do something to even out all the people trying to say the game hadn't changed. I wouldn't be surprised if half of them don't even own the game.… Collapse
L4D2 delivers multiple improvements over its predecessor, and I get to keep all my fingers and toes.
It remains one of the most distinctive co-operative titles out there, and allows for some of the most nerve-searing team-based multiplayer gaming on the market.
Whereas once we treated Left 4 Dead as a stopgap between Half-Lifes, this is no longer a weird little side project with modest expectations, and Valve is confident enough to play around with it, safe in the knowledge that you can trust your players. Left 4 Dead proved it. And whereas that game had a personality, this one is overflowing with it.

Sweet & Spicy Jalapeno Poppers Recipe

- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 bacon strips, halved widthwise
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon chili seasoning
- Cut jalapenos in half lengthwise and remove seeds; set aside. In a small bowl, beat cheeses until blended. Spoon into pepper halves. Wrap a half-strip of bacon around each pepper half.
- Combine brown sugar and chili seasoning; coat peppers with sugar mixture. Place in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan.
- Bake at 350° for 18-20 minutes or until bacon is firm. Yield: 1 dozen.
Reviews for Sweet & Spicy Jalapeno Poppers(60)
Sort By :
Do we use fresh jalepenos or canned. I have never cooked with Jalepenos before.
These have a lot of potential but they weren't quite perfect. I thought "chili seasoning" meant the packets of seasoning mix, such as McCormick's- I wish I had used chili powder instead, I didn't think that the flavor of chili seasoning went very well with the brown sugar. I had a ton of brown sugar mixture left over so next time I'd make half the amount.
I also really agree with other user's comments about pre-cooking the bacon, and cooking the poppers on a rack in the pan.
These are amazing and easy to do but I would wear a mask and use gloves, and I found slightly cooking the bacon before wrapping made the appetizers even better
These were fantastic. The combination of sweet and spicy really made them great. Our guests wiped them out in no time.
We thought this was absolutely delicious. I well wear gloves and a mask the next time I double this recipe.

I worked at Proxim Wireless
Pros – I had a great boss and executive team. Everyone treated me with respect. I wasn't there very long, but I had opportunities to make a difference and learned new skills.
Cons – At the time I worked for Proxim, they were in quite a bit of financial trouble. I hope this is no longer the case. I really liked the people and it was hard to leave.
Advice to Senior Management – Please keep a watchful eye on the budget. I saw too much spending on outside vendors when there was sufficient staff to complete the tasks. I haven't been there in a few years, so maybe things have changed.

Last week, the "Summer Sprouts" traveled to The Learning Farm and made their own ice cream in a bag, followed by a hands-on lesson about wheat and how it is made into all kinds of pasta.
On Thursday, guest reader Ashley Williams read to the kids about bugs and where they live. Then, they were able to color their own garden and fill it with "fingerprint bugs" using finger paints.
Friday brought fun with The Imagination Place from Gadsden. They brought balls of clay for the kids to make "pinch pots" to take home and decorate to grow their own plants in.
The fun continues at the Library every week. The Learning Farm takes place every Tuesday, story time and crafts every Thursday, and this Friday, Bill Haley from The Tennessee Aquarium will present a live animal show. Stop by the Library or call for more information, and don't forget to check the Library out on Facebook to see all the great pictures from the program!

Feb 21, 2014
Consumers have demonstrated a clear desire for hair that isn't "dried out" while also demonstrating a clear distaste for the effects of high humidity on hair. To find the balance in creating products, it is necessary to have an accurate means of measuring hair's water content. This article describes equipment used to perform this task while highlighting experimental variables that can produce suspect results and lead to incorrect conclusions.

The mission of The Cambridge Society for Early Music, founded in 1952 by the noted harpsichordist and musicologist Erwin Bodky, is to entertain, enlighten, educate and, in general, promote the rich musical culture of five centuries of Western music from the Middle Ages to the early nineteenth century. Since 1980 CSEM's Chamber Music by Candlelight concert series has brought distinguished international artists and ensembles to intimate and elegant venues in five towns around the greater Boston area. Come experience - up close! - the thrill of music from another world and time
PROFESSOR ERWIN BODKY spent almost twenty years in the United States, making his home in the Boston area until his death in 1958. Thanks to the kindness of Professor Mark Lindley, who chronicled some of Bodky's earlier life in Europe in an article entitled "A Prussian in Boston," CSEM has a trove of articles and photographs from Bodky's personal history stored in a collection of files on this web site.

History of the Founders Fund
The Founders Fund Award, established in 1934, was created by Mrs. Harold L. Pratt to honor the Garden Club of America's twelve founding clubs and the memory of GCA's first president, Mrs. J. Willis Martin, who served from 1913 to 1920.
Generously supported by gifts from clubs and individuals, the Founders Fund annually provides monetary awards to projects proposed by clubs in their local communities. The first award of $700 was given in 1936 for the publication in English of the Badianus Manuscript, one of the earliest know Aztec herbals. Current award winners receive $25,000 for projects that embody the Garden Club of America purpose – "to restore, improve, and protect the quality of the environment through educational programs and action in the fields of conservation and civic improvement."
Together GCA members and fund winners have enriched multitudes and saved thousands of acres of land and innumerable trees. Historic landmarks are restored to past glory, civic plantings flourish in countless communities nationwide, and research and education projects benefit young and old.

Taylor Gress is a freshman attacker from Westminster, Md.
The best piece of advice I've received is to never take anything for granted and that I am capable of achieving anything I set my mind to.
I chose to come to JMU because I fell in love with the campus, and it seemed like a perfect fit for me.
My favorite non-lacrosse memory is winning the first ever state title for my high school team in soccer.
My favorite lacrosse memory is scoring the goal in the Under-15 National Championship with 24 seconds left to tie the game.
The accomplishment of which I am proudest is winning states in soccer my senior year.
A person who is an inspiration to me is my club lacrosse coach Lacey, because she has so much energy and enthusiasm when we play.
The one thing I miss most about my hometown is how close everyone was to each other and how everyone gets along.
The one thing I can't live without is my family! They are the single most important thing in my life.
The most played artist on my iPod is Taylor Swift, because I love all her songs!
A way that I relax is listening to music and lying in my bed.
One of the top items on my bucket list is to go sky diving.

This happened to me also. The phone will neither charge nor sync via USB. Fortunately though, it will still charge via Firewire, so it is not completely the end of it.
*** To everyone else who is having this problem, you can probably still charge your phone via firewire. ***
I haven't done a full restore, nor tried to put the phone into recovery mode, because I'm afraid it will get stuck and won't connect to the computer to restore with the USB not working. Has anyone else tried this?
I think that the problem is with the chip on the mainboard of the phone which deals with initiating usb connections for charging and syncing, but I would like to be proven wrong. Can anyone help?

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By Bill Stewart email@example.com
Staff Writer
Another year, another showdown with Greely.
When: 10 a.m. today
Where: USM (Class A), Bates (Class B)
Defending champs: Class A — Scarborough (boys, girls). Class B — Waterville (girls), York (boys).
The Waterville girls indoor track and field team will go for its third consecutive Class B state championship today and once again it will be Greely providing the toughest obstacle.
"They are our arch-nemesis," Waterville coach Ian Wilson said. "They have been very tough over the years. They always seem to be strong."
The same, of course, can be said about the Purple Panthers, who turned back the Rangers in each of the last two Class B meets.
The Class B championships will get under way at 10 a.m. today at Bates College. The University of Southern Maine will host the Class A meet, also beginning at 10 a.m.
"Our girls have been strong all year," Wilson said. "My expectation is that if we perform up to our ability we should have a good chance of winning."
The Waterville boys, meanwhile, will try to run down York and avoid a second-place finish for a third straight season.
"York is the clear favorite," Wilson added. "It won it last year and it didn't lose a whole lot to graduation. On paper, we are seeded considerably behind them."
However, seed times and distances are a bit misleading this season because Kennebec Valley Athletic Conference teams did not benefit from a conference championship meet because of the recent Nor'easter.
The Western Maine Conference, as well as the Southwestern Maine Activities Association, was able to hold championship meets.
"We didn't have the luxury of having a conference championship," Wilson said, "and that is when kids normally post big (personal records). We haven't had a meet in three weeks. My feeling is that we're a little under-represented of what we're capable of doing. I expect we'll do better."
Senior Bethanie Brown once again leads the Purple Panthers. She will run three distance events -- the mile, two mile and the 800-meters. She is seeded first in the mile and two-mile run.
"Bethanie Brown offered to run three events and that is a tremendously difficult load," Wilson said. "She wants to score as many points as she can for the team. For her to be willing to do that, it's pretty impressive."
The Purple Panthers feature the top 4x800 and 4x200 relay teams. Waterville sophomore Kellie Bolduc is seeded first in the triple jump (36 feet, 4.5 inches) while Rachel Bergeron is second in the shot put (34-1.5).
Sarah Shoulta (55-meter hurdles, pole vault), Georgia Bolduc (pole vault, 200, 55-meter dash) and Lydia Roy (400) should also score well for the Panthers.
Winslow senior Alliyah Veilleux is in line for a big meet as well. She is seeded second in the 55-meter dash (7.46) and third in the shot put (33-7).
On the boys side, Waterville will need strong performances from Nick Danner (shot put), Jordhan Levine (triple jump) and Devin Burgess (pole vault, long jump) to dethrone York.
Burgess is the defending state champ in the pole vault and is poised to break a state record in the event this year. He's cleared 14 feet this season and the record is 14-0.75, which Brian Johnson of Scarborough set in 1986.
"We're chomping at the bit," Wilson said. "There's kids in a lot of places who can help us."
In Class A, Cony senior Lindsey Folsom hopes to break the state record in the pole vault as well. She's cleared 11-4 this season. Former Cony standout vaulter Bethany Dumas holds the Class A record at 11-10, set in 2008.
"I definitely can do it," she said. "I feel more confident than I ever have."
Folsom acknowledged the long layoff between meets has been difficult.
"It's been way too long," she said. "We've been practicing a lot, but it was so upsetting to not have the KVACs. We worked all season for the KVACs and states and to not have that opportunity was disappointing. But all we can do now is focus on states."
Cony senior Luke Dang is seeded second in the 55-meter dash (6.77) and fifth in the 200 (23.59).
"Luke Dang has been training hard the last three weeks," Cony coach Peter Marsh said. "Hopefully, he'll be in good shape for the races. His best performance is in the 55."
Also in Class A, Mt. Blue senior Justin Tracy is second in the mile (4:32.47) while Lawrence senior Jeremy Frantz is fifth in the shot put (46.6.5). Skowhegan junior Brett Gilbert is fourth in the high jump (6-2).
Messalonskee junior Amanda Knight is seeded third in the 400 (1:02.26) while Lawrence senior Sasha Letourneau should also score well. She is seeded second in the 200 (27.0) and fifth in the 55-meter dash (7.64).

Most people walk or run up and down the Art Museum steps. But the driver of a BMW convertible had other ideas as he drove his car down the steps that "Rocky" made famous.
Deputy Police Commissioner Richard Ross called it "idiotic, ridiculous and dangerous."
HughE Dillon, of PhillyChitChat, described catching the incident on tape by saying, "Suddenly in the middle of the steps, I see two headlights, and I'm like, 'That's unusual.'"
Dillon videotaped the driver as he made his way down the steps Thursday night just after midnight. His video and several more hit social media and lead police to investigate.
"Could have flipped the car, not to mention destructive,"Deputy Commissioner Ross told FOX 29.
Police say the driver turned himself in at Central Detectives for questioning Friday morning.
Sources say the damage to the Art Museum steps could be between $5,000 and $10,000.
The Philadelphia District Attorney's Office initially approved several charges against the driver, including a felony charge of criminal mischief.
But the D.A.'s Office later put out a press release stating, "After that decision was made by this office, Central Detectives decided to test the car in this case and not arrest the suspected perpetrator at this time."
We're told the suspected driver claims the brakes failed on his car -- even though the video shows the car going both forward and reverse as it snaked its way down the steps, with brake lights flashing on and off.
While police examine the vehicle and its brakes, the unnamed driver was released by detectives pending further investigation.
Meanwhile, everybody visiting the Philadelphia Museum of Art on Friday was buzzing about what happened there overnight.
"If he's driving the car down the steps, he should be charged with something," said one man taking pictures at the "Rocky" statue.
"They shouldn't be defiling it like that," another museum visitor said.
Dillon said that while watching the car come down the stairs, "I really thought this guy could roll, and I was trying to figure out how many times will he roll before he hits my car."
Police towed the car Friday afternoon from the driver's apartment a few hundred yards from the steps.
They won't say if he told them why he drove his car down the iconic steps, but the late-night cruise down a city landmark could put him in hot water.
"I don't buy his story this was an accident," Dillon said "I don't want any copycatters. It is very dangerous. ... Don't drive down the steps. It's not the thing to do. It can be done. But don't do it."
Another visitor at the steps said, "Somebody could have been sitting on the steps, even a homeless person laying on the steps, you don't know -- could have killed somebody."
Flames are tearing through a South Jersey forest right now, and this wildfire is only expected to grow.

Ivory female anatomical figure, Italy, 1701-1730
When the torso of this ivory female anatomical figure is removed, crude representations of the internal organs are revealed. Underneath the intestines is a foetus in the uterus. Red lines have been painted on to represent the blood vessels. Female ivory anatomical models of this type were popular in the 1600s and 1700s, and were almost always shown as pregnant. They normally came as a pair with a male equivalent (see A642635). The organs are not very detailed so it is unlikely that the model was used for medical teaching. The figure was possibly made to teach young couples about anatomy and pregnancy or it may have been a collector's item.
