Just Adventure
This game is one huge interactive comic book, from the "thwip" of Spider-Man's web-shooters to the dripping sarcasm of Spidey's quips. Stan Lee's melodramatic narration is a hoot, and the animation is top-notch and proves that the Playstation still has a lot of life left in it. Varying degrees of difficulty from Children to Experienced ensure that the entire family can enjoy the game on different levels. This is a must-have game for anyone looking for the best in the action/adventure genre, and I give it a big thumbs-up.
Power Unlimited
Het heeft een behoorlijke tijd geduurd, maar nu is er dan eindelijk een Action game die een superhero, nota bene mijn persoonlijke held, eens een keer goet tot z'n recht laat komen. Neversoft en Activision, mijn dank is groot!
PSX Extreme
SpiderMan is definitely this years best adventure game as far as I'm concerned. With all the features all the great stages that you will want to play over and over again SpiderMan is a bang for the buck. The some of stages may be a bit short but there are quite a lot of them and rumor has it that you can play as SpiderMan in his Venom symbiote costume. SpiderMan is an exceptional game, there are many different modes, secrets, and best of lots and lots of variety. Pick up SpiderMan, it is one of the most enjoyable games out there and you will want to beat it over and over again. Now if you excuse me I have some web-slinging to do.
Eurogamer.net (UK)
The game really does the Spider-Man dynasty justice; lets just hope the lineage continues in quality with the forthcoming PS2 version. If you own a PlayStation though, don't be daft, get out there and buy this, now.
Game Critics
As a past and current fan of the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, Activision's Spider-Man is quite simply a dream come true. It is the first such game that plays how I have always pictured a Spider-Man game would. In addition to the great gameplay, it offers wonderful bonuses and "spiderific" intricacies to satisfy any aficionado. Sure, it is hampered by some control and camera problems, but pound for pound this game is one of the few that deserves to have the Spider-Man license attached to it.
Neversoft's most recent PlayStation release, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater showcased the developer's talent for taking a subject universally deemed ill-suited for the videogame medium, and they produced an incredible videogame experience in spite of it. When I heard that the same developer would make Spider-Man, I was excited. But after I saw the first images of the game running in the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater engine, I knew it would be something special. The end product is probably the truest portrayal of an interactive Spider-Man adventure that has ever been made. Where as previous Spider-Man licensed games were nothing more than glorified Final Fight clones, this interpretation has removed the usual 2-D limitations and created a large 3-D world for Spider-Man to explore and make real use of his special abilities. Just like in his comics and TV shows, Spider-Man can scale walls and crawl along ceilings, shoot his web at enemies and lift and toss heavy objects at enemies.
What can I say about this game? It's the best superhero game on the market, it's really a lot of fun to play and it manages to walk the fence perfectly between overly serious and stupid/goofy. Since playing this game I have charged myself with a mission: With great video games comes great reviewing responsibility -- and this is a great game.
Super Play
Helt i motsats till mina föraningar tycker jag därför att alla som gillar äventyrsspel ska köpa Spider-Man. Man behöver absolut inte vara något Marvel-fan för att uppskatta det. Oc hdet är bara så skönt att inse att det inte finns några absoluta sanningar när det gäller TV-spel. Allting är möjligt, bara man vet vad man vill och brinner för det man gör.
All Game Guide
I've played a lot of superhero videogames over the years and Spider-Man comes closest by far to making me feel like a superpowered being in tights. Batman for the NES is still my favorite superhero title, but Spider-Man comes close. For those of you who were ripped off by the dreadful Superman for the Nintendo 64, redeem yourself by picking up or at least renting Spider-Man for the PlayStation.
Digital Press - Classic Video Games
Overall however, the game's minor flaws aren't enough to derail all of the effort put into the game. It's about time Spidey got justice in the world of video games and it's been well worth the 15-year wait. A definite must own for all fans of great games.
Now that Neversoft's had a go at it, though, Spider-Man fans should be pleased to know that the video game world has been blessed with an excellent framework on which to base future Spider-Man games - and an exceptional game to boot. Neversoft's Spider-Man was built around the engine that powered Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, and that engine's ability to render such expansive environments was doubtlessly vital in creating the teeming, often precarious playgrounds in which Spidey and his loathsome villains now frolic. The game's systems - from Spider-Man's arsenal of abilities to the camera that follows him - are all wonderfully functional, but, of course, they're not without their warts.
Leider überzeugt Spiderman nicht hundertprozentig. Es gibt einige Mängel, welche einfach zu eklatant sind, um sie einfach wegen der guten Grafikengine und dem durchaus vorhandenen Spielspaß zu ignorieren. Die Steuerung ist für Anfänger einfach zu schwierig. Man hat nie das Gefühl, dass man die totale Kontrolle über old Spidey hat. Außerdem passiert in den Levels nicht überragend viel. Nebenbei bemerkt sind die Rätsel eigentlich eher kleine "Gegenstand von A nach B tragen" Aufgaben. Neben den wirklich schlechte CG-Sequenzen (hätte Neversoft sich doch nur entschlossen die Filme in Zeichentrickform oder zumindest mit der In-Game Engine darzustellen) nervt auch die fast nicht vorhandene Musik. Schade, was bleibt ist ein gutes Action-Adventure mit Marvel-Bonus und ordentlich viel Extras. Für Motivation ist also gesorgt nur leider ist es nicht der (nicht nur von mir) erhoffte Überknaller. Fans des Helden greifen auf jeden Fall zu, die anderen sollten eher probe spielen.
Un titre qui ravira sans nul doute les accros de Peter Parker en proposant une aventure de longue haleine, ne laissant que de rares moments de répit au joueur. Une réalisation de bonne qualité et un personnage aussi charmeur que charismatique pour nous entraîner en fin de compte dans un jeu d'action très sympathique.
While we're huge comic book fans, and glad that Spidey has finally gotten a game worthy of his name, we still can't fully recommend this game to everyone. However, if you're more of a casual gamer who wants an experience that's not too brain- or time-intensive, then Spider-Man might just be able to snare you in his web.
Game Revolution
For the most part, I have enjoyed playing Spider-Man, but not because of the game or the adventure. I have enjoyed it because of how cool Spidey looks swinging through the city and utilizing his multitude of abilities. Plus I used to be a certifiable comic book nerd, so seeing Daredevil, the Human Torch, Carnage and many other Marvel greats is a real treat. But taken purely as a game, this one could use some radiation treatment.
Incarnez le plus célèbre des tisseurs de toile dans cette adaptation fidèle aux comic books et au dessin animé des années 80, qui vous plonge dans une aventure bariolée, hélas gâchée par une réalisation accusant de méchants défauts. Le rythme et la variété des missions de Spiderman réussissent cependant à atténuer ces erreurs, ne serait-ce que grâce à sa galerie de super-vilains.

Order of the Arrow Representative:
Dan Miller
OA Banquet Dec 7,2013
OA Banquet Dec 7,2013 The purpose of the Order of the Arrow is
fourfold: The Order of the Arrow membership requirements are: The Order of the Arrow (OA) was founded by Dr.
E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson in 1915 at the Treasure Island Camp of the
Philadelphia Council, Boy Scouts of America. It became an official program
experiment in 1922 and was approved as part of the Scouting program in 1934. In 1948 the OA, recognized as the BSA's
national brotherhood of honor campers, became an official part of the national
camping program of the Boy Scouts of America. The OA has more than 176,000 members located
in lodges affiliated with approximately 327 BSA local councils. Scouts are elected to the Order by their
fellow unit members, following approval by the Scoutmaster or Varsity team
Coach. To become a member, Adult selection is based on their ability to
perform the necessary functions to help the Order fulfill its purpose, and is
not for recognition. Selected adult Scouters must be an asset to the Order
because of demonstrated abilities, and provide a positive role model for the
youth members of the lodge. The induction ceremony, called the Ordeal, is
the first step toward full membership. During the experience, candidates
maintain silence, receive small amounts of food, work on camp improvement
projects, and are required to sleep alone, apart from other campers. The entire
experience is designed to teach significant values. After 10 months of service
and fulfilling certain requirements, a member may take part in the Brotherhood
ceremony, which places further emphasis on the ideals of Scouting and the Order.
Completion of this ceremony signifies full membership in the OA. After two years of service as a Brotherhood
member, and with the approval of the national Order of the Arrow Committee, a
Scout may be recognized with the Vigil Honor for outstanding service to
Scouting, his lodge, and the community. This honor is bestowed by special
selection and is limited to one person for every 50 members registered with the
lodge each year. Each local Boy Scout council is encouraged to
have an Order of the Arrow lodge. Each lodge is granted a charter from the
National Council, BSA, upon annual application. The OA lodge helps the local
council provide a quality Scouting program through recognition of Scouting
spirit and performance, development of youth leadership and service, promotion
of Scout camping and outdoor programs, and enhancement of membership tenure. Our
local lodge is the Kawida Lodge. |

Partially because his quiet time was constantly being disrupted by either Private's naive questions, Marlene's annoyances or Julien's Julien-ness. In truth, he was a bit sick of the whole thing. But mostly he was regretting it because it was an excuse for his science officer to spend all day in his lab, doing... things. He wasn't sure what Kowalski was doing in there but it probably wasn't good. It wasn't just Saturday either. Every spare moment this month had been spent in there, whether it be time supposed to be spent training or just in between missions. Skipper felt the oddest mix of anger and fear when Kowalski was experimenting. You never knew what he would make next. But it always was potentially lethal, in which case he an the team would suit up and sort it. Always.

'Fast Money' Recap: Getting to the Core of Apple
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The S&P 500 closed lower in a volatile trading session. Monday began a busy week of earnings. Apple (AAPL) reported after the close.
The technology giant beat on top- and bottom-line estimates but provided a below-consensus, second-quarter guidance to go along with lower-than-expected sales of the iPhone.
Guy Adami, managing director of stockmonster.com, said it seems like the stock will set up as a good long on Tuesday. He added Tuesday's low is unlikely to surpass Monday's after-hours low.
Karen Finerman, president of Metropolitan Capital Advisors, said gross margins look pretty good, but Apple needs a new product category as a positive catalyst for the stock. She added that it's a hard stock to value but below $500 it is attractive.
Tim Seymour, managing partner of Triogem Asset Management, said many investors want the positive catalyst to be China, but earnings per share growth won't be that big due to the region. Below $515, AAPL could have some trouble. Josh Brown, CEO and co-founder of Ritholtz Wealth Management, said the stock could get crushed, just as it did around the same time last year. He argued Apple stock is cheap and that shouldn't happen. He questioned why a company like Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) trades with a higher valuation. Colin Gillis, senior tech analyst at BGC Financial, was a guest on the show. He downgraded AAPL in Monday's trading session, based on valuation and his price target. He said the company desperately needs a new product to get investors excited again. Gillis added that iPhone demand is still good, but softer than what analysts had expected. He also said that iPhone activations on the China Mobile Limited (CHL) network are strong, but it could be the end of the "miraculous iPhone run" of upside estimate beats.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Storm takes a natural approach to downloadable puzzling
It looks really good already, although I'd like to see more to be convinced that it won't have the same type of puzzle gameplay over and over again throughout the game's 49 levels. There are three more trailers to be released, each centered around one of the other seasons, so let's give it the benefit of the doubt for now -- if only because it doesn't involve manic shooting or jumping for a change. Storm is set to bring you some inner peace with a "Summer 2011" release for PC, Xbox Live Arcade, and PlayStation Network at the cost of $10/800 MS Points. Comments not appearing?

Strawberry Mini Baskets
Looking for easy summer crafts to do at your daughter's birthday party? Maybe you need a fun and colorful way to hand out the take home treats? These adorable kids crafts for summer from Amanda Formaro look like strawberries and are very easy to make!
- Styrofoam coffee cups
- Craft paint in red (various other shades optional)
- Black Sharpie marker
- Pipe cleaners, 2 for each cup (We suggest green, white, pink, red)
- Felt: white and green
- Yellow buttons
- Scissors
- White craft glue
- Toothpick
- Tissue paper
- Paint the outside of the cups and allow to dry. Depending on the paint, you may need 2-3 coats.
- Use a black Sharpie marker to dot on the outer seeds ("achenes").
- Twist two pipe cleaners together. Use a toothpick to poke a hole in the side of the cup for the handle, just below the rim. Poke through the opposite side of the cup as well. Insert the pipe cleaner about 1/2" into one of the holes from the outside of the cup, bend the end to secure. Take the other end of the pipe cleaner and insert from the outside of the cup on the other side, creating the handle.
- To decorate the rim, cut green felt into 2-inch wide strips. Use scissors to create a decorative edge mimicking leaves. Use white craft glue to attach to the rim, covering the handle as well.
- Cut simple flowers from white felt and glue a yellow button to the center. Glue the flower to the top of the pipe cleaner handle. Allow to dry.
- Line cups with tissue paper and fill with treats!

The term shin splints refers to nonspecific pain that occurs in the lower legs during running sports.
Repetitive impact forces during jogging, running, or vigorous walking (eg, hiking) can overload the musculotendinous unit and cause shin pain. Such pain sometimes results from a specific injury (eg, tibial stress fracture, exercise-induced compartment syndrome, tibial periostitis, excessive foot pronation), but often an exact cause cannot be identified. In such cases, the term shin splints is used.
Shin pain can occur in the anterior or posterior aspect of the leg and typically begins at the start of activity but then lessens as activity continues. Pain that persists during rest suggests another cause, such as stress fracture of the tibia.
On examination, severe localized tenderness is usually present over the anterior compartment muscles, and sometimes there is palpable bone pain.
X-ray findings are usually unremarkable, regardless of the cause. If a stress fracture is suspected, a bone scan may be necessary.
Exercise-induced compartment syndrome is diagnosed by using a specialized manometer to document increased intra-compartmental pressure during exercise.
Running must be stopped until it causes no pain. Early treatment is ice, NSAIDs, and stretching of the anterior and posterior calf muscles. During the rest phase of treatment, deconditioning can be minimized by encouraging cross-training techniques that do not require repetitive weight-bearing activity, such as swimming.
Once symptoms have resolved, it is advised that a return to running be gradual. Wearing supportive shoes with rigid heel counters and arch supports helps support the foot and ankle during running and can aid recovery and prevent further symptoms. Avoiding running on hard surfaces (eg, cement roads) can also help. Exercising the front of the calves by dorsiflexing the ankle against resistance (eg, rubber bands or a dorsiflexion machine) increases leg muscle strength and can help prevent shin pain.

When I am meditating and you are meditating, there are not two persons, there cannot be, because two silences become one. They cannot be two, because how can you demark one silence from another silence? You cannot demark. You can demark one thought from another, one mind from another, but two silences are simply one - just like two zeros. Two zeros are not two; two zeros are one. You can put a thousand zeros, but they are one.
Meditation is creating a zero within - all limitations, all divisions disappear. And that gives you the real eye, the third eye, darshan. Now you have the real eyes to see. For these real eyes reality is clear, open, revealed. And with the reality revealed, there are no problems.
Osho,What is the difference between gazing at an open clear sky, gazing at an enlightened master's photo, and gazing at the darkness?
The technique of gazing is not concerned really with the object; it is concerned with gazing itself. Because when you stare without blinking your eyes, you become focused, and the nature of the mind is to be constantly moving. If you are really gazing, not moving at all, the mind is bound to be in a difficulty.
The nature of the mind is to move from one object to another, to move constantly. If you are gazing at darkness or at light or at something else, if you are really gazing, the movement of the mind stops. Because if the mind goes on moving, your gaze will not be there; you will go on missing the object. When the mind has moved somewhere else, you will forget, you will not be able to remember what you were looking at. The object will be there physically, but for you it will have disappeared because your are not there; you have moved in thought.
Gazing means, tratak means, not allowing your consciousness to move. And when you are not allowing the mind to move, in the beginning it struggles, struggles hard, but if you go on practicing gazing, by and by the mind loses struggling. For moments it stops. And when mind stops there is no mind, because mind can exist only in movement, thinking can exist only in movement. When there is no movement, thinking disappears, you cannot think, because thinking means movement - moving from one thought to another. It is a process.
If you gaze continuously at one thing, fully aware and alert.because you can gaze through dead eyes. Then you can go on thinking - only eyes, dead eyes, not looking at.just with dead men's eyes you can look, but your mind will be moving. That will not be of any help. Gazing means not only your eyes, but your total mind focused through the eyes.
So whatsoever the object.. It depends: if you like light, it is okay. If you can like darkness, good. Whatsoever the object, deeply it is irrelevant. The question is to stop the mind completely in your gaze, to focus it, so the inner movement, the fidgeting, stops; the inner wavering stops. You are simply looking at, not doing anything. That deep looking will change you completely. It will become a meditation.

Wrap Up of UTEP, NMSU Spring Football Practice
Joe Banyard ran for 65 yards on the first play from scrimmage, and the Blue team tacked on a couple more touchdowns on its way to a 24-0 rout of the White squad in the annual UTEP Spring Game on Saturday in the Sun Bowl.
Banyard finished with 10 carries for 115 yards, and Javia Hall found Craig Wenrick and Anthony McGhee for scoring tosses of 12 and 62 yards as the Miners wrapped up their eighth edition of spring drills under coach Mike Price.
"I'm pleased with the spring," Price said. "We're getting better all the time and I expect us to continue improving throughout the fall."
Blue quarterbacks Hall (14-for-23, 152 yards) and Nick Lamaison (8-for-18, 92 yards) combined to throw for 244 yards. The Blue team also received a combined 208 yards rushing from Banyard, Vernon Frazier (77 yards) and Leilyon Myers (16 yards). McGhee finished with six catches for 109 yards.
With the majority of the Miners' top defensive players running with the Blue contingent, the White unit was limited to 130 yards, including 73 rushing and 57 passing.
The New Mexico State football team held its annual spring game Saturday afternoon in Aggie Memorial Stadium, as the offense (wearing white) defeated the defense (wearing crimson) 47-23.
"I was happy with the way spring practice went overall and I thought we finished out the spring with a very good scrimmage, head coach DeWayne Walker said. "I thought the defense really finished strong over the last four practices and started to create an identity. Offensively, we have a lot of play makers like Manley, Clay and Rogers. The offense played well today at times. I would also like to thank the fans for coming out and supporting our team today."
Points were awarded on both sides of the ball as the offense would earn points on first downs, PAT's, plays of 30-plus yards, field goals and touchdowns, while the defense earned points on a 3 & out, a forced stop, a fourth down stop, a turnover and a turnover for a touchdown.
The game was highlighted early by the defense, who stopped the offense on their first five possessions of the scrimmage. On the day the defense recorded 10 sacks in the scrimmage. The defense jumped out to an early 14-7 lead.
The offense finally got on the board with Andrew Manley hit tight end David Quiroga for a 5-yard touchdown pass. Manley then hooked up with wide receiver Taveon Rogers on a 29-yard touchdown pass to tie the game up at 14-14. Running back James Hall, Jr. would punch it in for four yards out to give the offense a 21-17 lead. Quarterback Matt Christian then found wide receiver Adam Shapiro for a 34-yard touchdown, as the offense took a commanding lead.
Place kicker Tyler Stampler added a 31-yard field goal on the last play of the scrimmage to give the offense the 47-23 win.
Manley led the way in the passing game with 228 yards on 19-of-35 attempts, with two touchdowns. Christian threw for 56 yards on 7-of-11 with a touchdown. He also rushed for 22 yards. Running back Robert Clay led the team with 52 yards on 13 attempts, followed by Victor Johnson with 36 yards on four rushes. Hall, Jr. recorded the only rushing touchdown of the scrimmage and tallied 11 yards on five attempts.

SYDNEY, Australia 23 February, 2009 The IT Policy Compliance Group (IT PCG) today announced the availability of its latest benchmark research report titled, Managing Spend on Information Security and Audit to Improve Results. Based on research conducted with more than 2,600 firms, the study reveals that 68 percent of firms are under-spending on information security relative to the financial risks and losses they are experiencing. Yet incremental increases toward the funding of best practices are responsible for financial returns that can exceed more than 200 percent for most organisations.
The new research, sponsored by the Computer Security Institute, The Institute of Internal Auditors, Protiviti, ISACA, IT Governance Institute, and Symantec Corp. (NASDAQ: SYMC) outlines a risk-based approach to budgeting for information security that rewards results; the practices responsible for managing business and financial risks from the use of IT; and the substantial reductions in spending on audit in IT.
Like an insurance deductible, all organisations are willing to sustain some level of financial risk and loss from theft of customer data or some level of business downtime from IT disruptions, said Jim Hurley, managing director of IT PCG and principal research manager at Symantec. However, the research findings show that an organisations loss-tolerance is exceedingly low, and the financial returns for small improvements are extraordinarily high.
Top Business Risks
Firms ranked three business risks from IT well ahead of other possible risks: Confidentiality of sensitive information; Integrity of information, assets and controls in IT; and Availability of IT services. The IT PCG report leverages ongoing benchmarks to measure the performance of firms against these three risk areas. The results of the benchmark surveys can be broken up as follows:
Worst Outcomes: 19 percent of all firms are experiencing more than 15 losses or thefts of data each year, 80 or more hours of business downtime from IT failures, and more than 15 audit-failing deficiencies.
Normative Outcomes: 68 percent of all firms are operating at normal levels experiencing between 3-15 losses or thefts of data each year, between 7-79 hours of business downtime from IT failures, and between 3-15 audit-failing deficiencies.
Best Outcomes: 13 percent of all firms are achieving the best results, experiencing fewer than 3 losses or thefts of sensitive information each year, less than 7 hours of business downtime, and fewer than 3 audit-failing deficiencies. The financial returns among these organisations range from 22 percent to more than 3,000 percent annually.
Surprisingly, the difference in outcome between the worst performers and the best performers was not as a result of the size of security budgets. In fact, the differences in size of security budgets were negligible. What mattered was how those budgets were used. The new report details the following five practices being leveraged by those with the best outcomes and the least financial losses:
Financial Implications
The financial ramifications of these risks were found to correspond almost entirely with the practices implemented by IT to manage the exposure to them. Not surprisingly, firms leveraging the best practices experience the least expensive and most infrequent financial losses. Firms operating at the worst levels paid the price, literally, with data loss and theft equaling 9.6 percent of annual revenue and business downtime costs equaling nearly 3 percent of annual revenue.
Among organisations with USD$5 billion in revenue, the combined costs from data loss or theft and business downtime ranged from $329 million for firms with the worst practices to $2.25 million for firms who had implemented the best practices 149 times less.
Firms can either wait until an emergency pushes them to reprioritise, or they can decide that it is in their best interests to institute these industry proven practices, said Hurley.
The research found that firms with the best outcomes were actually spending between 35 and 52 percent less on audit fees and expenses. For these firms, adjusting the amount of money spent on practices that reduce risk, loss and audit spending can produce financial returns ranging from 1,000 to 500,000 percent more than the loss which the organisations are willing to sustain.
Quotes from ITPCG Member Organisations
This report is a clear demonstration of the benefits that organisations can achieve from effective management of security, availability and other IT-related business risks, said Brian Barnier, member of the IT Governance Institute's Risk IT Task Force. Good practices such as the freely downloadable COBIT framework can help organisations take specific actions to mitigate risk and maximise value.
As the IT Policy Compliance Groups research demonstrates, companies that make improvements in managing their IT security risk will realise numerous benefits, including lower financial exposure and losses as well as savings on regulatory audit fees and expenses, said Rocco Grillo, a managing director in Protivitis Information Security & Data Privacy practice.
The groups findings quantify what has been assumed to be a best practice: organisations with a top-down approach and a clear owner who has line of authority and visibility to the business lines maintain the most cost-effective and comprehensive information security programs.
Topics researched by the IT Policy Compliance Group benchmarks are part of an ongoing research calendar established by input from supporting members, advisory members, and findings compiled recent research. The most recent benchmarks included in this report were conducted between September and December 2008 with 734 separate, qualifying organisations. All of the 734 participating organisations in the most recent benchmarks are from North America, with a majority of these (95 percent) from the United States. A majority of the 2,600+ participating organisations (90 percent) are from the United States. The other 10 percent come from countries in Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific Rim.
The IT Policy Compliance Group is dedicated to promoting the development of research and information that will help organisations to meet their policy and regulatory compliance goals. The IT Policy Compliance Group focuses on assisting member organisations to improve business, governance, risk management and compliance results based on fact-based benchmarks. It is supported by several leading organisations including: the Computer Security Institute, The Institute of Internal Auditors, Protiviti, ISACA, IT Governance Institute, and Symantec Corporation (NASDAQ: SYMC).

'Drabble #16 from 'All I want for Christmas' series'
The Hungarian female bit down on her lower lip in frustration.She couldn't bear seeing her partener,Roderich Edelstein down and for such a silly reason she could resolve faster than a blink of an eye.She caught her mocha locks into a lower ponytail at her back,as if she was preparing to support the battle of her life.
Peeking her peridot eyes through the half opened door,she could clearly see the delicate form of (Name),also known as her target.The golden yellow sun rays fell gracefully onto the (h/c) locks of the female,making her even more beautiful than she already was.The golden string of the rays which childishly played upon her head broded one with other and created some sort of halo which seemed to float above the oblivious girl's head - if Elizaveta wasn't to know that (Name) was an ordinary female,she would have thought at the moment that she was for sure an angel who got lost and decided it was the best to hide in Gakuen Hetalia's library,lazily turning pages in order to go through rows of phrases in which she got caught.
"Ahem!" the Hungarian made her presence known,a thread of insecurity crossing her brave heart.
"Yes,Miss Héderváry?May I help you?" (Name) asked,bringing her head up,so that her (e/c) gaze could meet the intruder's peridot one.
"Actually yes,there is something I need to ask you!" Elizaveta made a little pause,growing nervous,trying to balance what was to follow.
"That ring on your finger...Do you have a fiancée or something in these terms?" she broke the silence,swearing she could feel her cheeks burn with embarassement and the sound of a window cracking and falling onto her head.
"Oh,you mean this?" (Name) asked,removing the circle from her ring finger,twirling it in her palm with care - at which the Hungarian nodded awkwardly.
"It's a memento from my grandmother!She was a soprano,so she considered it was the best for me to inherit it as I am the only one who is going to take music classes!" the (e/c) eyed female explained simply,with no shake of her delicate voice.
Elizaveta knew for sure the girl didn't lie.Her voice remained the same as the beginning of their conversation and her eyes betrayded sincerity.And after all,what was the purpose in lying?Was she to gain something out of it?
"Well then,maybe you would like visiting the music room number 2 during lunch.Believe me,you won't regret it!" the Hungarian female excitedly said as she waved goodbye to the amazed girl.
(Name) waved back and her features brightened as her smile grew as a rare bloomed rose onto her face - but Elizaveta was out of viewshot to see that happening.
~End of flashback~
The female felt a rush of nervousness run through her body,as if it was for the first time to step on the stage.Her pretty (curly/straight) (h/c) was put up into a simple bun and kept together by a delicate silvery snowflake shape.She wore a plain (f/c) dress which embraced her curves beautifully,falling in small waves from down her waist,swirling,until the silky material touched the ground.
Hearing her name being called,she gasped for air,unable to breath a mouthful of it,as she felt strangled by emotions.(Name) stepped gracefully onto the stage,waving towards the mass of people in the large ball like room who clapped their hands frenetically at her simple gesture.
The purple eyed male stand from the chair in front of his piano,clapping too - a small smile playing onto his lips,visible enough only for the female.
Roderich caressed the material of his navy blue tuxedo upper part in order for it not to wrinkle,trying a few notes onto the claps of the piano.
Giving eachother a glance,(Name) sat right besides the piano,adjusting for voice and they both started in the same time.
Violins,cellos and an whole orchestra played into the background,the stringed instruments caressed with delicate touches of the bows guided by the assigned artist,but the center of attention was the pianist whose notes echoed in the atmosphere.
Roderich closed his eyes,rather feeling the notes than playing them,his hand skilfully caressing the ivory keys which emitted the wanted sounds - a symphony of notes flew from the shiny black piano,creating the perfect harmony between the other instruments which played rather soft and the delicate voice of the female.
(Name)'s voice was a mixture of serene and angelicity,her hands tightened in sign of pray,as the dim light of the Viennese outside opera fell upon her form,creating that special aura only a few people held.
The crowd grew silent,not even their breaths could be heard as the female went on singing that piece which seemed to be a pray meant to be heard by divinity - a pray in which the humanity's delicacy was focused,all the faith and everything that was good in them sent up to the skies so that they could open and give them a sign - which strangely,they did.
Small snowflakes started engaging,two by two,into a masterpieced waltz,causing people to look up at the roofless hall and see points of white coming towards them and melting onto their warm skin.
The serene atmosphere was soon replaced by cheerfulness,the piece done,as everyone clapped with more enthusiasm as at the beginning.
(Name) smiled to herself seing grown up people get so excited over small things,as she herself felt a pang of thrill run through her body.
Something warm was pressing onto her shoulders and before she could turn her head to see what was,a pair of arms wrapped around her slim waist from behind,as well as a kiss was placed onto her warm cheek.
"Vell,zhis vas unexpected.But it makes things a lot more interesting,doesn't it?" Roderich asked in a heavy accent,watching people reach their hands to catch the delicate white snowflakes.
"It really does!I mean look,everyone is happy!That is the purpose of our music after all." (Name) answered,placing her hands onto the white shirt of the Austrian.
"Ve should head home, liebling!Our little (Daughter's Name) is already vaiting for too long.And I have promissed her I vill play for her Stille Nacht before going to sleep!" the purple eyed male suggested,taking the female's delicate hand into his own.
"I guess that's a good idea!Either way,we can't let her for too long with uncle Gilbert and aunt Elizaveta,now,can we?" (Name) giggled,accepting the warmth of the Austrian's hand enveloping hers.
As they walked hand in hand,frozen tear drops playing above their heads,(Name) started humming a peaceful tune which Roderich immediatly recognized.He smiled to himself seeing how genuinely happy she was and how contagious her happiness was,thing which was grateful for.
He bent down to place a kiss upon her silky hair,his own coffee brown one glimmering from the delicate frozen stars which got caught into it.
"Ich liebe dich,(Name)! Immer!" the Austrian melodically said,his voice cutting through the crispy winter wind.
"Ich liebe dich auch,Roderich! Bis zum Ende der Zeit!" (Name) tightened her hand onto the pale one of Roderich for emphasis.
The capital city of Austria shone in festive colours,vivid red,golden yellow,navy blue and neon green lights reflected onto the ground,music playing at each corner,as well as people loosing themselves into the mass of laughs and chatter,different shaped decorations taking their eyes,as well the powerful scent of cinnamon and ginger which made their mouths water.
In a quite empty corner of a dim lighted street,a certain Austrain took hold of his wife's small shoulders,his lips gently caressing hers into a loving kiss which he held inside for too long.
'Fröhliche Weihnachten!' ~

Forget sexual harassment claims, Herman Cain is too much like Obama
I used to ride the Cain train. Now, I've stepped off. Though Herman Cain has marketed himself as the anti-Obama, the similarities are disturbing. They both lack needed political experience and peddle slogans over substance.
Colorado Springs, Colo.
I used to ride the Cain train. Now, I've stepped off. The reason I'm rethinking my support for GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain has little to do with the increased media scrutiny, namely the sexual harassment allegations leveled against him.
No, the real reason I am rethinking my support for Mr. Cain is very simple: He is too much like President Obama. This is ironic because Cain has very successfully marketed himself as the anti-Obama – the conservative outsider who is ignorant of Washington political shenanigans, the honest straight-talker with common sense solutions and a no-bull approach. Like many others, I initially found this style quite attractive, and I supported Cain for the GOP nomination long before his recent surge in the polls.
But after Cain's initial charm wore off, I began to look a little deeper, and I found the similarities between Cain and Mr. Obama were disturbing to say the least.
For starters, Obama and Cain both share a lack of political experience. When it was obvious that Obama was a real contender for the White House, I remember conservative pundits making quite a noise over Obama's relative lack of political experience, calling him an "empty suit" and arguing that such a political novice couldn't possibly make a good president. I agreed with them then, and I agree with them now. The leader of the free world should know what he is doing, and as Obama's bumbling presidency has deftly demonstrated, political experience matters.
I don't believe in double standards, and Cain shouldn't be exempt from the experience criterion simply because he holds conservative positions. Being the president of the United States is unquestionably the most difficult job in the world, and politics is a dangerous game. If our next president does not have the knowledge to carefully navigate the shark-infested waters of international and domestic policymaking, he will get eaten for lunch. There are literally hundreds of powder-keg issues facing this nation and the global community that will most certainly blow into full-fledged crises if not handled with extreme delicacy and wisdom – wisdom born of time and experience. This is no time for a novice.

PARIS GDC: Battlefield Heroes producer discusses accessible, web-focused games
EA DICE's Ben Cousins has spoken about the opportunities up for grabs in the web-driven, online, free to play market in his Paris GDC keynote.Cousins, who is executive producer of the Battlefield franchise, talked about the genesis of Battlefield Heroes - EA's first free-to-play microtransaction-based title - and how the future of the games industry might not be in ultra high-tech virtual reality experiences but in shorter-form, lower-tech and yet equally engaging games.
The Battlefield Heroes project began after DICE visited South Korean online specialist Neowin, which operates one of the most popular free-to-play online games in the region. Seeing the value in the model, DICE entered into an agreement to produce a version of Battlefield for Korea and also started on a seperate project itself.
Knowing that the average revenue per user was lower for free to play online games than for EA's staple yearly packaged retail updates business - an average of $3 to $6 per user per year compared to $59.99 a year from a regular Madden fan - the team focused all decisions on broadening the user base and cutting costs, taking a low-tech approach to maximise the number of computers the game would run on and to also reduce asset generation costs.
That core philosophy also affected the game's design as well, causing the team to look at the 'iron gates' in the traditional Battlefield games - aspects which 'lock away' the experience to the casual gamer. They identified things such as it being based too much on skill, having an unfriendly introduction and a complicated server browser. These points have been addressed in Heroes - matchmaking that automatically pits you against people who've been playing as much as you have and character 'abilities' to give a more strategic feel to the game. This makes the game more accessible to casual gamers and, the team hopes, will broaden the user base.
The web-driven nature of the game has meant quite a different development process. "EA has a very solid, established distribution chain, but DICE - a comparatively small studio in Stockholm - rebuilding that entirely by going directly to the consumer," he said.
But doing so gives them the ability to continue to build the game directly based on player feedback and telemetrics, and will allow the team to build premium content that's tailored exactly to what players want. "You don't have to cross your fingers, ship the game and hope it's good - things like balance can be changed over time. But while that's great, it means you can't just go on holiday once you've shipped - closed beta is where the hard work begins."
The team was relatively small throughout development, but Cousins admitted that they severly understimated the effort that goes in to building a web platform - especially when he admitted that, given the social networking features and campaign meta-game featured on the service, would see players spend more time on there than in the game itself.
"It's a hell of a lot of work," he admitted, "and once we hired web people in to do it we realised how much was required and how mature their tools are. We've contracted a lot of it out to large, multi-national IT companies as well."
Cousins ended the keynote by talking about the opportunities available in the free to play model, and that while casual games are ignored by many at the moment, thanks to unsexy visuals and primitive technology, a more involved experience like Heroes - one where players have a persistent character that grows with them - has the potential to reach out to a huge untapped audience, and could be a viable future for the industry.
"If you had asked music technology people what would be the big new format in the future, they'd have probably described something like DVD-Audio - amazing quality sound. But the format that's really won is MP3, despite being far lower-tech, because it's convenient and cheap."
In the same way, he says, the games industry might not have its future in ultra realistic immersive environments, but in lower-tech, more accessible formats that reach a wider base.
He concluded: "Imagine a Flash game that's as addictive as World of Warcraft, and playable on your mobile, iPod, PC, Mac or PS4. At that point, the platform becomes irrelevant. The casual audience is growing, and we can attract the core audience by keeping them in the game wherever they are. We're at the cusp of something big."

How Generation Y Will Reshape Customer Loyalty
New study explores Millennial attitudes towards loyalty, privacy and technology: Gen Y skeptical of location-based offers, mobile wallet; but will reveal personal details for fast, free and easy rewards
MONTREAL, Oct. 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - Comprising more than 1.7 billion consumers worldwide—77 million in the United States alone—the Millennial Generation, also known as Generation Y, presents some profound implications for marketers as it comes of age and takes the reins of the global consumer economy. According to a proprietary study released today by Aimia to coincide with its global rebranding from Groupe Aeroplan, Inc., Millennial consumers will change the way companies and brands build sustainable customer loyalty.
To compare the attitudes and behaviors of Millennials to older consumers, Aimia commissioned Harris Interactive to conduct an online study of more than 6,000 consumers in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. The first part of this study, "Born This Way: The US Millennial Loyalty Survey," focuses on Millennial Consumers in the US. Aimia will release subsequent reports on UK and Canadian Millennials in October and November 2011, respectively.
"The US Millennial generation is bigger than the Baby Boom generation and three times the size of Generation X," said Rick Ferguson, Vice President Knowledge Development for Aimia. "With the Baby Boom generation retiring, it's critically important for marketers to understand how Millennial attitudes towards technology, data privacy and rewards will change the way brands build strong, profitable relationships with their best customers."
The US Millennial Loyalty Survey presents a comprehensive view of customer loyalty expectations among the next great cohort of consumer spending. Among the high-level findings are these important insights: Loyalty Behaviors- Over three-quarters (77%) of US Millennial consumers claim participation in loyalty and reward programs, compared to four in five (82%) non-Millennials consumers.
- Over three-quarters (78%) of US Millennials are more likely to choose a brand that offers a loyalty or reward program over a brand that doesn't offer one.
- In unprompted responses, US Millennials rate loyalty rewards as the top incentive they look for in exchange for sharing personal information with marketers.
- Nearly half of US Millennials (44%) are willing to promote products or brands through social media in exchange for rewards.
- When introduced to the concept of a US coalition loyalty program, 74% of Millennials and 87% of older consumers rate the ability to earn a common currency among multiple partners as their top desired loyalty program benefit.
- US Millennials are skeptical of the value of location-based marketing offers delivered via smart phone, with only one in ten (13%) claiming to have responded to such an offer.
- Using a mobile device as a substitute for carrying a plastic loyalty card is the top requested mobile payment application for Millennials, (26% express interest); meanwhile, only one in ten (13%) express interest in using a mobile device as a credit or debit card.
- US Millennials are significantly less concerned than non-Millennials with data privacy and security overall. Of all named marketing channels in the survey, loyalty and reward programs are perceived as the most privacy-friendly by Millennials: Only 14% of Millennial loyalty program members are concerned about sharing personal information with loyalty programs.
- Nearly half of US Millennials (47%) agree that they're more likely to share personal details with a brand that offers loyalty and reward incentives.

Welcomes Joseph's move to come out of the LDF
Kerala Congress (M) party leader K.M. Mani has for the first time formally welcomed the move on the part of the Kerala Congress (Joseph) to come out of the Left Democratic Front (LDF) and to merge with his party. According to Mr. Mani, a five-member committee chaired by Joy Abraham, party general secretary, has been entrusted with finalising the modalities of merger terms.
Mr. Mani said the UDF convener would be informed of the developments of the merger moves as and when they unfold. Taking a dig at the Congress leadership who had mounted a scathing attack against the merger moves, Mr Mani said merger was an internal affair of the party which did not need consent from the UDF. "We are not asking to make the Kerala Congress (Joseph) a coalition partner. We are only coming together in our parent organisation and this does not need any authorisation from the UDF," he said.
"That the Joseph group had come out of the Left coalition is a positive development for the UDF. Instead of making use of the situation emerging out of this development some are bent on destroying the opportunity," Mr. Mani lamented. "This trend is not going to help anyone," he said.
He also expressed surprise at the hue and cry over the issue of seat-sharing in the coming Assembly elections which was a year away. "Seats do not belong to any particular coalition partner. It is common for the UDF. They will have to be shared at the time of election on the basis of the legitimate demands of each political party in an equitable manner," he said.
Mr. Mani felt that the unnecessary furore over the issue of four seats has spoiled the occasion somewhat. He admitted that the controversy had affected the relations between the two coalition partners, "but the whole responsibility for the issue rests with the Congress leadership."

When I had thyroid surgery a few years ago, I had surgical tape on my neck, over my sutures. It finally came off in the shower, as my surgeon had said it would, but my skin around the incision line was sticky for weeks.
Sticky skin was still better than the large, purple and yellow bruise I had on my neck after having a fine needle aspiration biopsy on the nodule on my thyroid. That bruise looked like a huge hickey! And I had to go to work like that. At least it was cool weather and I could wear turtlenecks until it faded a bit. It made me wish they made flesh colored surgical tape so I could have camouflaged the bruising a bit, at least.

0:00-8:09 Notre Dame
- How big of a loss is Jerian Grant for the Irish?

Okay, made a stupid mistake tonight Had a Cerveza that was lagering for a month and today I decided to keg it. I racked some starsan in the keg to sanitize it and then ran a bunch though the lines and put it to the side. I was rushing a bit and filled a few bottles and then grabbed the keg, took the lid off and started racking. I put about 4 gallons in before I realized that there was still starsan in there. I quickly grabbed a few more bottles and carb tabs and bottled the rest. Will this still be good to drink? I know there's always a bit of starsan in the kegs and bottles as I don't rinse but how much is too much? I always measure my water (I used 1/4oz to 4.7 liters of water) so I measured at the end and I figure theres about 2-3 cups of starsan in 4 gallons of beer. What do you guys think. Anyone else done this?
Can't say I've done this myself, but it is my understanding that you will be fine, worst case, it may seem a little "watery" in the end.
it happens all the time, never heard that quantity being left in there but i bet it will be fine. lots of food for the yeast to eat as the starsan breaks down.
Once pH rises above 3.5 the yeast with just eat the star san. It will water it down but it will be ok! Next question...when yeast eat the star san does it add any alcohol or body
If I had 8 hours to chop down a tree, I would spend 6 sharpening my axe. ~Abe Lincoln
No worries man. I've done it, probably the same amount, and it made absolutely no discernible difference to the beer.
Thanks for the quick responses. I'll just leave it alone and let it carb up. At least I'll have a few uncontaminated bottles to compare it to in a couple weeks.
2-3 cups, I wouldn't worry about it. It'll clean your lines every time you pull a pint
Okay so I just did this very same thing, except I had about a gallon of star san/water mix in my carboy. I can't even blame it on drinking as I was brewing in the morning to escape the heat. I would love to know how your beer turned out. I can live it it being watered down as this was a higher gravity stout (milk chocolate stout).

Asura from the recent game Asura's Wrath, the physical manifestation of anger
against Kishin Asura, the physical manifestation of madness.
This is NOT a straight-up fist fight because the Kishin would be decimated. However, to the best of my knowledge, Kishin just wants to spread chaos, so I think that if he can cause Asura to go insane, he'd consider it a victory.
Both are in character.
Would Asura's rage be able to overcome Kishin's madness, or would he go insane?
