2015 is shaping up as a year when data analytics, ubiquitous video, and cyber forensics will force government IT managers to make decisions about how they deploy their resources.
The National Institutes of Health is supporting the launch of an electronic "Commons," a shared cloud and high-performance computing ecosystem to support the biomedical research community.
Veniam's networking service not only collects data from sensors – whether stationary or deployed on fleets of vehicles – but also delivers Wi-Fi connectivity to those within range of the vehicles.
Argonne National Laboratory researchers moved 65 terabytes of data between storage centers in Ottawa and New Orleans in under 100 minutes.
A federal initiative to help departments purchase 50,000 body cameras for police in the wake of recent high-profile incidents of police violence is only the first step in creating a full video system. Departments will have to store and manage terabytes of data for years, sometimes decades.
Government IT departments will increasingly turn to data warehouse augmentation tools and tactics in 2015 to address their big data management challenges.
Researchers are developing set of data management tools that could be used across the scientific community.
Veterans Affairs launches a pilot project to test uses of IBM Watson analytics to help doctors sift electronic medical records to support clinical decision-making in treating PTSD.
National Coordinator for Health IT's draft five-year plan outlines expanded health information sharing through mobile, sensor and analytics technologies.
Apple and IBM unveiled IBM MobileFirst for iOS, the first apps from a joint venture designed to offer business-specific, cloud-supported data and analytics capabilities on Apple devices.
The General Services Administration has created a list of developing technologies that could be incorporated into GSA's Alliant I and Alliant II government-wide acquisition contracts.
The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency launched its Map of the World within Amazon Web Services' Commercial Cloud Services (C2S) environment.
The use of social media as a public outreach and data collection tool is now actively promoted by government agencies. But do the data samples paint an accurate representation of public sentiment?
Plenario lets users assemble information from open data portals and analyze it via a single spatial and temporal index, making it possible to do complex analysis with one query.
The term "big data" is now passing into the common vernacular. Although initially as much about the power of business analytics and data mining, the semantics have now swung to encapsulate data that is just big and of course, resource hungry, whether in terms of management, sheer storage capacity, or budgets. In that respect, the numbers are getting increasingly alarming: Estimates suggest that 90% of the world's information was created in the last two years, and 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created daily. Download this informative whitepaper to gain further insights into the conflicting demands of storage management.
As state and local government organizations grapple with tight budgets, demanding constituents, growing data volumes, and cross-government coordination challenges, the "Big Five of IT" – data center consolidation, mobility, security, big data, and cloud computing – promise to improve agency performance, productivity, and service. But are state and local networks ready? This research report examines potential network impact, state and local readiness, and how organizations can prepare for the onslaught.
The big data era presents new opportunities and advantages for agencies that are able to exploit its capabilities. However, the velocity at which data must be processed poses major challenges as it relates to the IT infrastructure. This whitepaper examines what all-flash storage systems can do to help agencies leverage big data technologies and optimize the benefits they can attain.
Get the most information from your data. Business has never been faster and is increasingly dependent on the timely analysis of large volumes of data for strategic and operational decisions. As executives come to rely on advanced analytics, the importance of a robust IT infrastructure cannot be overstated.Data comes from everywhere; make sure you get it in time, every time.
The increasing complexity of the government enterprise—and the increasing volume and complexity of the data being managed—is forcing agency IT managers to rethink how they manage the infrastructure. Virtualization is at the center of that. By virtualizing key elements of the data center, agencies gain flexibility, scalability and manageability. And those gains are magnified when agencies integrate those systems into a cohesive whole. At the same time, IT managers are looking to bolster their infrastructures with emerging storage and storage management options. The data center of the future is taking shape now.

Tunagogo on 11:57PM Sun, 16 November 2014DIY Poser Dynamic Jewellery
Skill Level: Intermediate / Views: 50 / System Requirements: A Modeling application; Poser 6+
Can you make your own jewellery mesh in a modelling application? Can you use Poser's Cloth Room? If you answered yes to both of those - did you realize that a small addition when you're modelling the jewellery will allow it to be used in the Cloth Room? Dynamic Poser jewellery is unbelievably simple to create! The key to this is shown in the promo image - for a bit more information check the rest of this brief guide. (Thanks to klausdbg on ShareCG for the inspirational conforming jewellery that started me on this quest, and to Stegy, ParrotDolphin and WhimsySmiles who posted dynamic jewellery freebies in Renderosity FreeStuff which allowed me to work out how to do it.)

smuthustalin on 8:44AM Sun, 27 April 2014Ray Tracing on the GPU, with PD Howler 9.1
Skill Level: Intermediate / Views: 92 / System Requirements: Project Dogwaffle 9.1, Windows Vista may be ok, but 7 or 8 recommended
This tutorial covers a new feature in Project Dogwaffle 9.1, namely a GPU-accelerated version of Puppy Ray, the elevation-map-based landscape ray tracer introduced in v9.0Here's a video that shows using Puppy Ray 9.1 (pre-release beta) on the GPU:With GPU acceleration, rendering a scene that could take minutes can now be done in seconds. Animations that took hours can be done in minutes or seconds, depending on dimensions and chosen parameters. And of course depending on the particulars of your graphics chip. Using the GPU can yield 4x the speed, 10x, and even more. Much more in some cases. Some graphics cards have the compute power of 100x-200x or more that of the CPU. Using the GPU can significantly reduce your time spent waiting for the rendering to complete, to decide if you like it or need a different value on some parameter, such as a viewing direction, a fog depth level, an extrusion depth, a camera angle.. This can be a great improvement in your workflow for exploring options during your creative experimentation and final renders.Have fun waffling and howling!

Simple Cutaway animations in LightWave using no plugins
Skill Level: Intermediate / Views: 137 / System Requirements: LW 9+
This revisits an old technique which used a second object to "fill in" the cutaway area. In this version I use nodes to color the back sides of polygons to make it look like the mesh is filled in when really it's just hollow. It's a fake effect and it has some limitations, but it might do what you need it to do.

Motion Estimation / Prtediction with PD Pro 7
Skill Level: Intermediate / Views: 79 / System Requirements: Windows Vista or 7, XP ok too., .Net framework 4
Here's another look at using Motion Estimation with the Motion Prediction Module from PD Pro 7, as applicable to videos and to rendered animations of 3D logos in this case. This shows a comparison of a traditional frame blending approach vs. the motion prediction approach.It may take a few tries to tweak the parameters, and get a good combination, but in the end it could be worth the effort, especially if the rendering of the frames took a long time and you can't re-render them with the added frames, economically speaking.Generally speaking, you'll want to consider this option if you have a short animation that needs to last longer, and thus you want to time-stretch it without going through re-rendering the whole lot in the 3D side, i.e. when it took hours to render and you can't afford to take even longer to render, say, 10x that many frames for a 10x timelapse.In this example, the 3D logo was rendered at high (but not highest) settings, took a minute or two per frame to render. This is not a typical case. You'll be more interested in this technique when it takes an hour per frame to render :-)The last clip was done with 60 frames per second and with global illumination enabled, adding significant rendering time to it all. In cases like these it will definitely be a time saver to use motion prediction. Even if it takes a few minutes to get the parameters right, in the end it's much shorter than rendering it in 3D over 300+ frames if you can get away with rendering just 30-60 frames and fill in the missing frames through motion estimated interpolation.

'Tis the Season!
Hi there and hello! The Christmas season is upon us and is definitely in full force here at The Woods! Everyone is super excited for Santa to come visit, so we students are busy doing lots of fun activities to get in the Christmas spirit!
One of the great pluses about being involved in different organizations on campus is attending all the great holiday parties at the end of the year! Phonathon is one of my campus jobs where I get to work with about twenty other fabulous people and call alumni and chat with them about their experience at WWU.
This year, as always, we had a Christmas party at our boss Sharon's house, complete with yummy spaghetti prepared by her husband, delicious cookie treats and, of course, a White Elephant gift exchange!
The whole point of White Elephant is to bring something you either already have or that is on the silly side. This year's gifts were especially interesting, with people bringing everything from embroidered toilet paper to a gingerbread house kit.
The LEAD program is also a great place to find some Christmas joy. One of the groups I'm involved with, Student Alumni Council, sponsored a LEAD event where students could come make Christmas cards for residents in a local nursing home. We collected over 100 cards and even made it on our school's news website, The Talon!
After all the cards had been made, members of Student Alumni Council went to the nursing home and delivered the cards to the residents. It was so much fun to see them smile! And the best part of it all? We sang Christmas carols with them afterwards! How fun is that?
The First Impressions Show Choir held their annual Holiday Concert not only for us students, but also for members of the Fulton community. It was very well done and even included performers from a local dance company!
No matter what else is happening on campus, I know I can always count on my sorority sisters for some Christmas entertainment. Every year we decorate our house and have a Secret Santa party before everyone leaves for break. It's so much fun to play Santa for each other and see what kinds of gifts everyone receives.
Something exciting that happened this year was a visit from Santa himself! One of my American Sign Language lab tutors, Brad, dressed up as 'ol Kris Kringle, came over to our house during one of our chapter events and took silly pictures with everyone. It was so much fun to pretend to be a kid again!
Now that the semester is winding down, I'm definitely excited to go home and spend the rest of the holiday season with my family, but I can't say I won't miss my crazy peeps here at The Woods! No matter if I'm at a Christmas party, a holiday-inspired LEAD event or just hanging at the house with my sorority sisters, I know I'll never be bored!
Finals are coming up very quickly, so I'd better get to studying for all my tests! Eek! (Wish me luck!) I hope your final weeks of classes aren't too crazy and you rock your finals! You can do it, I know it!
As always, smiles and sunshine!

Video Premiere: Dream Of Summer With Lights In 'Running With The Boys'
We miss summer
July 3rd, 2014
It was a sunny Summer day when the gods of music decided bestow a gift upon us lowly mortals. That gift being the first look at Hilary Duff's album. Deep breaths, Lizzie McGuire fans.
Hilary instagrammed a photo from a photo shoot with the caption "took a sneaky pic of one of the Polaroids yesterday on set. Shhh!"
Hilary tagged the photographer Harper Smith, who instagrammed her own photo from the shoot. "First day back on set post-surgery shooting for the new @hilaryduff album," Harper's caption read.
I think I need to sit down.
This is the second time Hilary teased the album in a week. Hilary posted a video on Instagtram from a studio session. The video is a close up of a guitar, but if you listen closely with the volume loud, you can hear a melody in the background.
Could this be it, could this be the Hilary Duff comeback we've all been waiting for? This is what dreams are made of.

He's an ordinary-looking teenager, but 13-year-old Jordan Nelson is now believed to be New Zealand's youngest murderer.
Nelson pleaded guilty in the High Court at New Plymouth yesterday to the murder of his caregiver, 50-year-old Rosemaree Kurth earlier this year.
Nelson was 13 years and 89 days old when he shot Ms Kurth in the back of the head with a .22 calibre rifle.
The nearest thing to a motive that the Crown could offer to the court was the fact that Ms Kurth had taken his Freeview TV receiver from him.
The boy also admitted to police that sometimes "she would get shitty with me".
Taranaki Daily News research has been unable to uncover a younger murderer since a law change in 1977 allowed children over 10 to be charged with murder or manslaughter.
In 1991, another 13-year-old murdered 23-year-old nurse Rachel Bennett after entering her Wellington flat and stabbing her 15 times.
Nelson appeared before Justice Timothy Brewer in the High Court at New Plymouth charged with Ms Kurth's murder.
Ms Kurth, who had three children and three grand children, was found dead at a rural house on Piko Rd, Okoki, on April 15, with a gunshot wound to her head.
Nelson had initially denied the charge and was due to stand trial later this month, but yesterday changed his plea.
Justice Brewer lifted name suppression for Nelson and Ms Kurth, which had been in place since the shooting.
Ms Kurth's family and Nelson's family were seated in the public gallery for his appearance.
Nelson, who was wearing black trousers and a collared shirt, stood with his head bowed for most of his appearance.
Crown solicitor Cherie Clarke said Nelson thought of Kerry Lock, who was in a relationship with Ms Kurth, as his grandfather and the three had lived at the address since September 2010.
Mr Lock had known Nelson since he was a baby.
Nelson's father lives in Stratford and his mother lives in Napier.
Miss Clarke said about a week before her murder, Nelson was annoyed when Ms Kurth had removed the Freeview box from his room.
Nelson seemed to enjoy the rural life and Mr Lock had taken him hunting and fishing and taught him to use a .22 calibre rifle which was kept at the property, she said.
On the morning of April 15, Nelson got the gun out of the closet and the ammunition from the drawers and placed them in the sleepout, while Mr Lock was out walking the dogs.
Miss Clarke said when Mr Lock again left the house about 3pm Nelson took the gun from the sleepout and shot Ms Kurth once in the back of the head while she worked on a jigsaw puzzle at the dining room table.
Nelson then dragged Ms Kurth into her bedroom.
After ransacking Mr Lock's room and taking $16.10 in coins and a tusk carved necklace Nelson drove off towards Urenui in Ms Kurth's white Ford Telstar.
Mr Lock said he saw the car leaving and believed it was Ms Kurth going to Urenui for some reason.
When he arrived home Mr Lock saw a trail of blood leading from the dining room table to Ms Kurth's bedroom and the rifle on the floor about two metres from the table.
"The bedroom door was semi-closed. He opened the door and found Ms Kurth lying on her back with blood coming out of her ears and mouth," Miss Clarke said.
Mr Lock immediately presumed Nelson was responsible and informed emergency services.
Police later found Nelson driving along Bayly St in Waitara and he was arrested.
When interviewed by police the next day with his lawyer Patrick Mooney present, Nelson claimed to have a memory blank.
"He maintained he was going to the police in Waitara because he felt like he had done something wrong but didn't know what it was," Miss Clarke said.
Nelson told police his relationship with Mr Lock was good and he had done a lot for him.
However, when asked about how he got on with Ms Kurth Nelson said "sometimes not that good".
"If I do something wrong she gets shitty with me," he said.
He gave examples of being grounded for a month, stopped from visiting his mother in the school holidays and not getting his $20 for mowing the lawns.
Nelson later admitted to police Ms Kurth had died because he had shot her, Miss Clarke said.
Justice Brewer convicted Nelson and recorded a first strike warning against him.
He remanded Nelson in custody until December 20 for sentencing and ordered that a pre-sentence report and victim impact statements be prepared.
"What is going to happen to you is going to be determined at your sentencing," Justice Brewer said.
1991: A 13-year-old Wellington schoolboy was convicted of the murder of nurse Rachel Bennett, who was stabbed 16 times. He has permanent name suppression.
1994: Anthony Alfred Afu, 14, beat John Wahanui to death with a piece of wood in Auckland. Originally charged with murder, he was eventually convicted of manslaughter.
2001: Bailey Junior Kurariki, was just 12 when he was involved in the killing of pizza delivery man Michael Choy in 2001. He was convicted of manslaughter.
2003: Renee Kara O'Brien was convicted of the murder of Waitara truck driver Kenneth Pigott. O'Brien was 14. Her co-offenders - Puti Irene Heather Maxwell and Kararina Makere Te Tauna, both 14 - were convicted of manslaughter.
2008: Kalem Ames, 14, stabbed Tokoroa man Shayne Pita Walker, 22, to death in the town. He was charged with murder, and a jury found him guilty of manslaughter.
2008: Jahche Broughton, 14, bashed 27-year-old Scottish tourist Karen Aim to death in Taupo. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for Ms Aim's murder.
2008: Teenage cousins Courtney Patricia Churchwood, 16, and Loi-lea Waiora Te Wini, 14, murdered retired Opotiki school teacher John Rowe.
2009: A 12-year-old East Coast boy shot an 11-year-old boy dead and pleaded guilty to manslaughter.

McLaren: new sponsor imminent
McLaren Racing Director Eric Boullier has revealed that the Formula One team is close to securing a new title sponsor.
Earlier this year, McLaren Group CEO Ron Dennis hinted that the Formula One team would announce a new title sponsor at some point during the season.
During a McLaren phone-in earlier this week, Boullier revealed to reporters that negations regarding the new sponsorship deal remain ongoing.
"The plan Ron discussed [with regard to a title sponsor] is happening. But until we have signed the package, signed the final contract, nothing will be announced or changed," Boullier said when asked about the status of the proposed deal.

Inviting somebody to break bread is an act of hospitality, like when a strongman breaks his door in half so you can come inside. Share a meal with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $10 for $20 worth of soda-fountain fare
- $20 for $40 worth of soda-fountain fare
The old-fashioned soda shop serves breakfast and lunch daily, with dishes such as grilled peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches ($3.49), hearty chili ($3.49), and two scrambled eggs ($4.49). Finish off your meal with a milk shake ($4.59), root-beer float ($4.29), or old-fashioned ice-cream sundae ($3.99).
Highland Park Soda Fountain
For a 103 years, the old-fashioned Highland Park Soda Fountain has served authentic diner eats at its long lunch counter, including deli sandwiches, hearty soups and chilies, and frozen treats. With barstools, traditional malt glasses, and phosphates on its menu, the shop was described by Frommer's as "blissfully out of place with all the home-goods and high-end restaurants that surround it." The menu pays homage to the soda shop's early days with traditional grilled-cheese, egg-salad, and minced-ham sandwiches. Co-owner Sonny Williams—a customer since childhood—now teaches kids to spin on the 19 barstools that line the lunch counter as they wait for ice-cream sundaes, milk shakes, or phosphates.
love this little place. the most delicious chocolate milk shake ever. and of course their grilled cheese sandwich never fails either.

Step back in time with real ice cream shakes and floats. Amazing sandwiches ranging from the Palm Beach (pimento cheese) to the Dobbin (Delicious BBQ)

"I went with a large group and everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The service was a tad slow but they make everything by hand and we all ordered malts, handmade sodas, sandwiches, etc. so the delay was expected! Great experience overall. "

AZ Clean Tech's fully licensed cleaners depurate carpets, tiles, furniture, rugs, and carpet with thorough and effective scrubbings from truck-mounted equipment.

Using the same industrious approach, hardworking cleaners can also purify soiled upholstery, tile, oriental rugs, and air ducts to ensure a healthy and comfortable living environment.
The cleaning technicians at Galaxy Cleaning Services unleash their scouring prowess on homes and living spaces ranging from the grandest mansion to the coziest studio apartment or converted submarine.

In addition to recaulking and sealing tile, the team can also change the color of grout.
The fully insured and bonded professional technicians of In-Town Services leave no surface sullied. With the aid of their powerful truck-mounted cleaning units, they eradicate all traces of dust, dirt, and stains on carpets, tiles, and upholstery with nontoxic chemicals.

WASHINGTON – US President Barack Obama sympathizes with the people of Gaza, he said – but reserves no such sympathy for its "extraordinarily irresponsible" Hamas government."I think it is important to remember that Hamas acts extraordinarily irresponsibly," Obama said on Wednesday, "putting civilians at risk" with its taunts against Israel, and its placement of rocket launchers in civilian areas during conflict with the Jewish state."I have said from the beginning that no country would tolerate rockets being launched into their cities," he continued. "And as a consequence, I have consistently defended Israel's right to defend itself, and that includes doing what it needs to do."The president was responding to a question on whether he agreed with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's assessment of Operation Protective Edge, as a "justified" and "proportionate" military response to Hamas's rocket fire and tunneling into Israel.Obama also expressed "distress" at the conditions of Gaza's civilians, after much of the Strip's infrastructure was destroyed during the four-week campaign.The international community will have to assist in the rebuilding of Gaza, he said."Gaza cannot sustain itself, permanently, closed off from the world."

Sarah Michelle Gellar believes Buffy the Vampire Slayer "changed the course of television".
The actress played the title character in the TV show, which was about a teenager who discovered it was her destiny to kill vampires and demons. It aired from 1997 to 2003 and Gellar believes it is one of the reasons there are now so many solid roles for women available on TV.
"Buffy came at the right time ... Now you see these great roles on television all the time. Glenn Close in Damages? One of the greatest actresses of all time. Sally Field in Brothers & Sisters? TV is where the roles are," she explained.
"Without wishing to sound obnoxious, I do think it changed the course of television. It certainly changed genre television. It just came at the right time for that."
Although she appeared in Buffy so long ago, Gellar is still happy to talk about the role. She knows it was her big break and loves reliving her time on set.
"Fed up with it? No! No, no, no! I'm so proud of it, and I actually like talking about it more now than I did then. Because I was 19, 20. Sometimes I think, to get true perspective, you have to step away, to realise the impact that something had," she told British newspaper The Sunday Times.
The 34-year-old is now back on television in her show Ringer, in which she plays twins.
She's appeared in movies in the past, and finds it difficult when people suggest moving back to the small screen is a step down.
"I don't feel like I didn't succeed - The Grudge is still the second-highest female opening ever. And Ringer doesn't feel like a retrograde step, not to me. That is the weird perception, but I think it's slowly changing," she said.
Gellar has two-year-old daughter Charlotte with her husband Freddie Prinze Jr. Being a mum has changed her perspective on work as she wants to be there for her child as much as possible.
"I would never fault anyone's decisions and choices, but being a parent was so important to me. I just couldn't be the parent who goes from country to country and leaves their child, or schleps their child with them," she said.

Security Tools in Linux Distributions, Part I
With so many security tools available, it can be hard to know what to use. Many users do not want to be bothered with downloading, learning and configuring security software when so many other things need to be done. The good news is tools that system administrators would manually install, and checks that they would write scripts to do as part of a security audit, are available out of the box in Linux distributions.
People rarely notice the security enhancements until they start receiving security reports or until they have been hacked. Most of the time, security features are the last bullets on the marketing material and glossed over in product reviews. Although many reviews of each distribution appear with each new release, none seem to focus much on the security tools.
This article, presented in two parts, is an overview of the security enhancements of two Linux distributions, Red Hat 7.3 and SuSE 8.0, and of how to maximize security simply by selecting and using the software provided in the distribution. It should be noted at the start that security is an ongoing process, and no one program can keep a system completely secure. But you can get a head start by starting with a secure distribution and using good tools that are readily available.

2 Sisters defended pay offer and changes to working patterns |
Staff at UK firm 2 Sisters Food Group will go on strike tomorrow (14 December) after last-ditch talks between the company and union officials failed.
Workers at two plants will hold industrial action in protest over pay after discussions broke down.
Employees at the sites in Smethwick and Wolverhampton want changes to pay and working conditions.
"Discussions have made good progress on some of the issues, but we remain deadlocked on pay and seven-day day working. Further discussions are welcomed by Unite, however since a settlement is not within view, the dispute will carry on," Des Quinn, regional officer at the Unite union, said today.
Staff have planned two more 24-hour strikes on Tuesday and next Friday. 2 Sisters supplies meat, seafood, chilled and bakery products to UK retailers and Unite claims supplies of chicken to supermarkets will be "hit" in the run-up to Christmas.
2 Sisters insisted it will be able to supply customers from its other sites. The company said it was "disappointed" with the strike action and insisted it had made an "above-inflation" pay offer to staff. It also said it needed new working patterns to serve new contracts.
"We have won additional business with our customers, and need to move to a five-in-seven day working pattern to meet these supply demands. We believe this is a positive signal – demand for our products will help to sustain jobs at these sites and we also have plans to create 500 additional jobs in the West Midlands, but only if we can move to a 5 in 7 day working operation," 2 Sisters said. "Whilst we are disappointed by strike action, we will keep discussions open with Unite."
Quinn said Unite was ready to hold talks with 2 Sisters but insisted the company had to put a "realistic offer on the table".

4.37 / 5.00 2,229 ViewsWarning! This Flash is 12 minutes 30 long! :o
BEHOLD! It's finally finished... Series 3 of Badly Drawn Dawg! WOOF. It was originally due out before Christmas, but I decided to delay it. And i'm glad I did now, because it gave me time to add all sorts of extra new bits (the finalé song in Episode 3 for example), resulting in the entire thing lasting 12 and a half minutes and being over 12mb! WOOF.
Compared to the first 2 series, these episodes are a huge leap forward. Not sure if it's a leap for the better or not, yet... only time will tell! I spent a lot more time on them, and there's more "story" to them... even if it's very loose :p Plus I got a drawing tablet when I started Episode 2 meaning it kind of becomes less Badly Drawn as the movie goes on! FAIL
If you haven't seen Badly Drawn Dawg before then there's a couple of things you should know:
1. The characters are Badly Drawn on purpose.
2. The dog's BARKS are recorded badly on purpose, to suit the badly drawn-ness.
Thanks for watching, and OH YEAH! BADLY DRAWN DAWG SHIRTS ARE AVAILABLE IN THE NEWGROUNDS STORE! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, BOYO!?!
Episode three was the best. I didnt think that the parody of "Still Alive" went together all that well, but the show was great.
Another great 3 episodes
A radical step up from the last 2 (which is a bit weird if it's meant to be badly drawn) but it's not just the animation, it's the quality of the storylines and humour as well. I look forward to seeing more in the future.
I'm from Barcelona!
Great choice in music the animation was also brilliant! well deserved 10/10!

Cute storyline for this one. I greatly enjoyed Pandora, and expect to spend a good amount of time going through the medals for both games. Thanks for the entertainment!
Lovely game. The art was adorable (I especially loved the demon girl!), the music was fitting, and although I was a bit concerned at first that a timer'd spoil the fun, it didn't: the game was never too difficult, nor frustrating, and that's no easy feat for a difference game. Very well done!
got nice art and music but its a little too easy especially with the unwanted hints

Across Races, Couples That Pray Together Are Happier
Source: University of Virginia
— The first major study to compare religion and relationship quality across America's major racial and ethnic groups finds that for all groups, shared religious activity – attending church together and especially praying together – is linked to higher levels of relationship quality.
African-Americans derive the most benefits from that connection because they are significantly more likely than whites or Latinos to pray together and attend church together, offsetting other socioeconomic factors tied to lower relationship quality – a finding dubbed the "African-American religion-marriage paradox," said W. Bradford Wilcox, a sociology professor

'Christian love' fuels Mennonites to rebuild houses for free
An article in Friday's New York Times, "Months After Storm, Mennonites Stay and Rebuild," highlights the countless hours of volunteer service a certain subset of Pennsylvania Christians is humbly rendering on behalf of New York families who lost their homes to Hurricane Sandy.
"Since (Hurricane Sandy), over 1,300 Mennonites have come into the city," Edna Ishayik reported for the Times. "Volunteers from the conservative sect of Protestant Christianity that includes the Amish, known for their skillful carpentry (as well as their beards and bonnets), have already returned dozens of low-income, hurricane-struck families to their homes. They have another 80 projects in various stages of rehabilitation."
The extensive volunteerism is coordinated by Mennonite Disaster Service, a group that describes itself on its website as a "volunteer network of Anabaptist churches that responds in Christian love to those affected by disasters in Canada and the United States. While the main focus is on cleanup, repair and rebuilding homes, this service touches lives and nurtures hope, faith and wholeness."
Last month the New Jersey Star-Ledger reported the American Red Cross had awarded Mennonite Disaster Service an $800,000 grant to be used toward rebuilding homes in New York and Maryland.
Even though the Mennonites are based in Pennsylvania and do much of their service in the Northeast, they occasionally travel considerable distances to rebuild houses. On Wednesday the University of Texas at Austin's Daily Texan newspaper reported about Mennonite Disaster Service's continued involvement in rebuilding houses at a cost of $45,000 to $50,000 per unit in central Texas locales where the Bastrop wildfires of 2011 destroyed more than 1,500 homes.
"Assisting with the recovery program is the Mennonite Disaster Service, an organization that sends volunteers from the northern states and Canada to build homes at no cost to the families or the (local) organization," Reanna Zuniga wrote for The Daily Texan. "These volunteers make it possible for houses to be built at such a low cost because they do not accept payment for their work."
