The ocean is crystal clear like a shinny new glass, the weather is warm as honey. What is there not to like about this place? The Bahamas is an amazing vacation destination to just relax and enjoy yourself while you spend time with your friends, and family. Once I arrived, I did not want to leave! I took a trip here for my 21st birthday with my family and I can definitely say that it was one of the best weeks of my life! There is just so much to do here you will never get bored. You can swim with the seals and dolphins, go on a cruise around the island, scuba dive, jet ski, the list goes on.
If you do stay at the Atlantis Resort, be sure to sign up to swim the dolphins and seals, and ride the huge water slide that passes thru a shark tank! And no matter what room that you stay at, the view you will get in your balcony is breathtaking.

Snowpoint City
Snowpoint City (Japanese: キッサキシティ Kissaki City) is a snow-covered city located at the very north of Sinnoh. Snowpoint is located in the far north of Sinnoh, where snow blows down from the top of Mt. Coronet causing low temperatures. Snowpoint City and the three routes that lead to it (Route 216, Route 217 and Acuity Lakefront) are also completely covered in snow. To the northeast of Route 217, Lake Acuity can be found. A cave, which houses Uxie, is located in the middle of Lake Acuity. Being that the snow which affects every battle on the two routes leading to the city, as well as the fact that to get to Route 216 from the rest of Sinnoh one must pass through Mt. Coronet, the most convenient way to get to the city is to Fly. There is a port here, in which the player can access the Fight Area. Its temple is home to the legendary Pokémon Regigigas. There is also a Move Tutor in Snowpoint in Pokémon Platinum.
Places of interest
Snowpoint Temple
- Main article: Snowpoint Temple
Although Snowpoint City is not home to much, a noticeable landmark in the area is Snowpoint Temple, which can only be accessed after the Sinnoh Elite Four have been beaten and the National Dex has been obtained. The temple contains five floors, with odd bits of slippery ice. At the very bottom of the temple lies a dormant Regigigas. To awaken this legendary Pokémon, the player must bring all three of the legendary golems along with them, which are all only available in the Generation III games.
Because of the location of the temple within a city, Regigigas is only the fifth legendary Pokémon that can be caught within city limits, the other four being Ho-Oh and Suicune in Ecruteak's Tin Tower during Generation II and Kyogre and Groudon in Hoenn's Cave of Origin.
Trendy phrases
Snowpoint is home to the place where trendy phrases are obtained. Every day, players can go to the farthest house in the northeast and receive a new trendy phrase. A trendy phrase is an additional phrase which can be used in interviews with non-player characters. It appears in the "Tough Words" category. There are thirty-two different possibilities, all obtainable from an elderly man in the north-easternmost house in Snowpoint City. Only one may be obtained daily, and receiving a new trendy phrase will not alter any game mechanics. They typically refer to science, business and the arts.
In-game trade
In a house south of the Pokémon Center, a girl will trade a Haunter holding an Everstone for a Medicham. The Haunter is nicknamed "Gaspar" and the OT is "Mindy". The Haunter's ID number is 19248.
Diamond dust
On January 10, 2008, Junichi Masuda posted a blog entry urging players to play their Diamond or Pearl January 12. On that day, the same day as Masuda's birthday, a weather effect called diamond dust occurred in Snowpoint City, replacing the usual snow. It resembles glitter in the air. It is purely aesthetic, since it only occurs within the city where no battles are possible. It has been determined that other special weather conditions such as thunderstorms happen on predetermined days throughout the year, such as:
- April 22: When in 2007 Diamond and Pearl saw their release in North America.
- February 29: The extra day of the leap year
- March 17: St. Patrick's Day
- May 1
- September 2
- September 20
- October 30
Snowpoint Gym
- Main article: Snowpoint Gym
The Snowpoint Gym is the official gym of Snowpoint City. It is based on Template:Type2 Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Candice. Trainers who defeat her receive the Icicle Badge. The Snowpoint City Gym is a Gym consisting of a three-floor ice rink with slides connecting the various floors and snowballs blocking progress through the Gym. To reach the Gym Leader, trainers have to slide around the Gym and destroy the balls of snow blocking the way. For defeating Candice, trainers receive the Icicle Badge, TM72 (Avalanche), and the ability to use Rock Climb outside of battle.
The population of Snowpoint is 14, which makes it the smallest city of Sinnoh to have a Gym.

Disney Digital Guru to Keynote Home Entertainment Summit19 May, 2006 By: Stephanie Prange
Robert Lambert
The digital point person for The Walt Disney Co. has been tapped to keynote the Fifth Annual Home Entertainment Summit: DVD's Nine Lives.
Robert Lambert, Disney's SVP of worldwide technology strategy, will speak during the June 1 luncheon at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel in Century City, Calif. His speech continues the forward-looking slant of this year's conference, produced by Home Media Retailing in cooperation with The Hollywood Reporter and DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group.
"The home entertainment industry is changing dramatically," said Don Rosenberg, HMR publisher and conference chair. "High-definition packaged media is now on the market, and at the same time the major studios are aggressively selling their movies over the Internet through digital downloading. That's why we're looking at cutting-edge programming for this year's summit, and Bob fits right in with that."
Lambert works closely with Disney business unit and corporate executives on a number of the company's digital initiatives, including new technology and new media strategies, technology planning, and interface with other media companies on technical matters. He focuses on strengthening Disney's relationships in the technology sector to create new businesses. He also acts as the company's senior technical executive in new media, standards, regulatory and rights management work, and serves as president of Disney Technology Operations & Licensing, Disney's licensing subsidiary. Lambert also serves as a corporate advisor for Walt Disney Imagineering's Research & Development unit and the Studio New Technology area.
The Fifth Annual Home Entertainment Summit: DVD's Nine Lives, which comes as DVD celebrates its ninth birthday, is expected to attract more than 300 of the home entertainment industry's top movers and shakers. Two days of programming will be highlighted by high-def disc and VOD panels, along with a market research Super Session, a studio presidents panel, and in-depth looks at Internet marketing and mobile entertainment. Also on the schedule are the second annual DVD Critics Awards: The Divine Nine.
Platinum sponsors of the Fifth Annual Home Entertainment Summit include Buena Vista, Lionsgate, Paramount, Sony Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Universal Studios and Warner/HBO/New Line. Other sponsors include Anchor Bay Entertainment, BCI Eclipse, First Look Studios, Genius Products, Hart Sharp Video and Image Entertainment.

Escape the Snow at the Tropical Lagoon: No Sunscreen Necessary
On the snowiest day of the year I felt like visiting the tropics, so yesterday I pushed open the door to the Tropical Lagoon fish store in Silver Spring and waited for the condensation to clear from my eyeglasses.
It was warm in the store. No, it was hot, and I stripped off my parka, hat, scarf and gloves. Owner Steve Maletzky was in jeans and a T-shirt that read, "Buy this man a beer."
"I almost wore shorts," said Steve, "but it's a little cold for that."
Steve, 51, was messing with a customer's balky aquarium light while all around him fish tanks burbled, their colorful contents flitting around in gin-clear water like so many precious jewels.
It's always hot in Tropical Lagoon, which has been on Georgia Avenue basically forever. Steve bought the place in 1984 and can't remember how long the guy who sold it to him owned it before that.
Yesterday, it was a Caribbean island in a sea of snow. Beautiful fish darted around exotic corals and frondy aquatic plants. The fish names written on the tanks sounded like delicious, fruity drinks: purple tang, blue damsel, royal gramma . . . All that was missing were paper umbrellas.
Steve has quite the menagerie in his shop. Besides the dozens of fish-filled aquaria, the store is home to two resident cats -- Tara and Kitty -- who lolled around like harem girls. They haven't eaten a tropical fish yet.
Every few minutes, Susie, one of Steve's two parrots, squawked, "Gimme a beer," a skill she learned from a former employee. Steve's other parrot, Brodie, brooded in his cage. ("He's kind of like a teenager," Steve said. "He does the opposite of whatever you tell him.")
Steve's newest acquisition -- an 8-week-old, turquoise-eyed miniature Australian shepherd named Layla -- chased her stubby tail around the store, stopping occasionally to untie customers' shoelaces with her teeth.
"Have you seen my turtle?" Steve asked.
I hadn't. Steve has a 65-pound African spur thigh tortoise named Tank who "winters" at the back of the shop. Tank spends the rest of the year in Steve's back yard, where he is a fairly efficient gardener. "He loves dandelions," Steve said.
A well-tended fish tank is a miniature world, a simulacrum of reality. Tropical Lagoon seemed like one too, but instead of hermit crabs or tiny plastic treasure chests spewing bubbles, it's decorated with a six-foot-tall wooden tiki ("That's from the old Kona Kai restaurant in the Pooks Hill Marriott. We used to maintain their aquarium"), a plaster gorilla head, a large Bill the Cat statue, a dusty velvet sombrero, a half human/half lizard made out of papier-mâche. . . .
"We used to have a lot more stuff," Steve said apologetically.
I pulled on my winter gear and left the tropics, trudging through dirty snow the mushy consistency of brown sugar and butter.
Across the street, a man was shoveling the driveway of a dry cleaners.
Ski Patrol
The snowstorm that dropped as much as a foot of snow on the Washington area dropped a fraction of that on nearby ski resorts. Wisp in Garrett County barely got an inch. Whitetail in Mercersburg, Pa., got just two inches. But that's just fine with them.
"When D.C. and Baltimore and those areas get snow, it puts skiing on everyone's minds, so we benefit immensely," said Lori Epps of Wisp. "I call it the 'backyard syndrome.' When there's no snow in your back yard, you don't think there's snow three hours away. It helps eliminate the backyard syndrome when it snows in D.C. We love it."
Running a ski resort means reading the skies. "We subscribe to every weather service available and have three or four weather stations on the mountain," said Whitetail's Matt See. "We have people that monitor the weather all day long."
Matt said that 20 computers hum in the snowmaking control room. When conditions are right -- low humidity is more important than low temperature -- they "charge" the mountain, drawing thousands of gallons of water from their reservoir and sending it through the snow machines, from which it emerges as perfect crystals. Natural snow on top is icing on the cake.
Ski folks hope the season will go through March.
Bird in the Hand
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about a starling living deep underground in the Forest Glen Metro station. Reports of his demise -- Metro told me it had been euthanized -- were premature. I saw him yesterday, looking as incongruous as ever.
I'll post more pictures of the Tropical Lagoon menagerie on my blog today: voices.washingtonpost.com/commons. My e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Dick Costolo CEO Twitter in conversation with Emily Bell, former Guardian Digital head and currently leads Tao Centre of Journalism at Columbia University.
This is from ONA 2012 in San Francisco
EB: Thank you for ruining my attention span and malnourishing my children. Tell us about the special relationship between journalists and Twitter.
DC: Twitter has been incredibly valuable to journalists. Globally it has become a valuable journalism tool. A reporting tool for journalists, not just breaking news. Conversations around key issues are on Twitter.
EB: another trivial q - Twitter is the single tool that has had the largest impact on journalism. How does it feel to be in control of the free press?
DC: I Don't see Twitter like that. We are a tech company. Media companies, are creating and curating content, we are not that.
EB: You're a platform company not a media company, but every choice you make becomes editorial. You're dictating free speech for the world.
DC: As dstinct from news aggregators, we distribute publishers content - Twitter Cards control the view evenmore.
EB: Tell us about the Malcolm Harris case (Occupy Wall Street)
DC: It's important for us to defend our users rights to protest. we've spent a significant money, on that case. Put between a rock and a hard place when we were told we'd be held in contempt.
EB: This is going to get more entrenched. It is going to grow...
DC: There are a lot of rules in every country. You can't say things about Ataturk in Turkey. We'll have to figure it out. There is no one size fits all solution.
EB: How big is Twitter?
DC: 1800 people
EB: Revenues?
DC: We don't talk about that (laughs)
EB: Twitter is an absolute phenomenal success. Does it give you more responsibility than you like? Would you prefer fewer people relying on it?
DC: No it's fun to go to work. I'm never going to have another job like it. Every day has crazy Twitter moments from the ridiculous to the sublime.
EB: Twitplomacy - how do you see this as a strategic challenge?
DC: Don't see it that way. Elected officials and people see the power of this platform. Fascinating to watch Rupert Murdoch use this platform. As a public ceo he has been great in getting people to work this platform. You get a 360 view of the person
EB: Who's not Twitter that you'd like to see on Twitter?
DC: Tom Brady (an American football quarterback) is not on Twitter.
EB: Is it possible to have Piers Morgan removed from twitter? Crowd roars
EB: Recent changes of the api - upset a large no of people
DC: There's a big distinction between having an api and having a platform. You could do whatever you wanted to the api and people built different esperiences. Then there was no android or iPhone client etc. In 2010 we found too many kinds of Twitter platforms in the app world. We realised we have to own an operating client across platforms. We're in this world where the api, was not providing a creative value-ad. We wanted to migrate to a world where users get the Twitter experience and more. Amazon, initially provided an alternate auction experience. Didn't work. instead they set about building a true platform that allowed developers to build into amazon, where users could get the benefit of additional inventory. Amazon was specifially willing to cannibalize their own value chain. Amazon realised a creative value to third party and user.
We are going to build a third party platform that will allow developers to build into Twitter. The IFTT removing Twitter has nothing to do with changes to our api.
EB: You've said you see Apple as a mentor, you've introduced physical changes, is the era of open-ness over?
DC: NO. People used to say you have to be a product founder of a company to run it. But that changed. Now you have Tim Cook at an Apple, me at Twitter. Two or three data points is not enough for a trend. We will build this platform in an open way. We are working on a set of editorial curation tools that will enable publishers to curate themselves on Twitter.
EB: What are the other exciting things we're likely to see.
DC: When events happens the shared experiences are on Twitter. Can algorithms provide a better curation experience? It's fascinating to note, when you isolate signal from noise you lose the roar of the crowd. In the Olympics, you didn't have the noise. We need to nail down what these curation tools should look like. There's a fascinating relationship between Twitter and tv. We've just scratched the surface.
EB: The conversation around the content has filled the void that bad content created.
EB: When can we download all our tweets?
DC: End of the year
EB: What about archiving tools?
DC: Shared experiences is a focus and to let third-party syndicate the tweets
EB: Are you sure you don't want a Twitter phone?
DC: We don't have plans for it. Not the way we think about it.

Application deadline is February 28, 2017. If you are interested in participating in the program, please contact Professor Elena Past at firstname.lastname@example.com.
This program is designed to provide an opportunity for students and graduate students who are native speakers of English to be immersed in the language and culture of Italy to gain a better understanding of Italian culture and traditions. Participants will be matched with high schools for internships in teaching English.
Participants can choose a duration of the program anywhere from a minimum of three months to a maximum of eight months as long as it is between October 1 and May 31. Actual start and completion dates are dependent on the school assigned to the participant and the program length requested.
The program is open to undergraduate Italian majors who have not graduated more than 18 months prior to the start of the program.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Prior teaching experience to non-native speakers (preferably experience teaching English to ESL students).
- Status as B.A. student (Italian major or minor preferred), or status as recently graduated student ( within the past 18 months at the moment of application, therefore graduated in or after November 2014) or status as M.A or Ph.D. student specializing in Italian language and culture. In absence of such (preferred) requisites, completion of at least 3 semesters of University level Italian and a minimum of B grade in the course is required. If not the case, proof of the equivalent proficiency and knowledge of Italian will be considered at the discretion of the selecting institution and the Program coordinators.
- Experience studying or working abroad, or participation in cross-cultural activities in North America.
- In the case of a candidate who has a GPA that does not meet the 3.25 requirement, or who does not fulfill the above listed preferred criteria, the university may still proceed forward with candidate selection provided the quality of the applicant is demonstrated as notwithstanding, ideal for the internship. In any case, the SITE Program Coordinators reserve the right to reject candidates who do not meet program criteria.

Psychopathy, the brain, and bad behavior – Morality
© 2013 NeuroInstincts | All Rights Reserved
In trying to piece together why individuals with psychopathy have a certain pattern of behavior and seem to lack morality, we again look to the brain. Be aware that this is only a portion of the puzzle regarding psychopathy because science continues to learn more regarding this disorder through each new research study.
But, let's look at what we know now.
There are many regions of the brain, including neurochemistry that are different for those with psychopathy. Aside from their minimal empathy, a tendency toward boredom, and aggression, one of the primary facets of their character that creates problems in their relationships is their lack of morality.
Lack of morality is extremely difficult for the partners of individuals with psychopathy or narcissistic personality to tolerate. Violations of morality can wound us deeply and are almost never resolved by a simple, "I'm sorry." However, in relationships of this type, mates often find themselves distraught and confused by their partner's propensity to engage in immoral behavior.
Examples of immoral behavior that has been shared with us are:
• cheating on a spouse while she's pregnant
• having a secret child or family
• deception regarding occupational history to land a prestigious position
• several affairs (e.g., with hired help, their partner's friends, or strangers)
• bouncing back and forth between past partners (with overlap)
• hiring escorts/ prostitutes although involved in a serious relationship
• a secret life in general (e.g., sleeping with men, however, married to a woman)
• purposely withholding information regarding an STD, yet encouraging mate not to use protection
• Using manipulation to destroy the reputation of a current or former partner.
What might be an underlying contributor to these behaviors?
There is one region of the brain that seems to have a primary role in morality, emotional processing (e.g., guilt), and social decision making. It is the ventromedial prefrontal cortex. Note this region is not the only area associated with those functions, but rather one of the contributing regions.
Why is the Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex (vMPFC) relevant to psychopathy?
Before we go into the relevance of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, let's take a quick look at where it is located within the brain. In the figure to the left, the ventromedial prefrontal cortex would be the area composed of the underside of the prefrontal cortex. It also extends to the middle portion (inside) of the prefrontal cortex. Looking at it from the underside, as though you were holding it up and getting to view it from that vantage is the best angle.
Research has determined that this region of the brain is involved in some pretty important functions! Specifically, the ventromedial prefrontal cortex is associated with the following processes (Koenigs, 2012) –
• social decision-making ability
• learning from past experiences
• integrating our emotions into our decisions
• morality and guilt
In fact, the ventromedial prefrontal cortex seems to be one of the key regions of the brain associated with morality (Mendez, 2009). It is an area involved in social emotions – how we relate and treat other people.
Based on several fMRI studies it was found that primary psychopaths have reduced activity compared to normal or non-psychopathic individuals in this area of the brain (Motzkin Newman, Kiehl, & Koenigs, 2011). This seems to offer some suggestion of why individuals with strong psychopathic traits tend to have a pattern of immoral behavior and might seem surprised that others do not view the world as they do. Hyporesponsiveness of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex is likely a significant contributing factor.
You might wonder what does this mean with regard to observing a consistent pattern of 'bad behavior' in relationships?
Among several other variables, to be a fully functioning human being there has to be a proper integration of emotions and morals.
Interestingly, many with psychopathy will tell their intimate partners that emotions are "not important" or that they have "control" of their emotions and easily manage stress ("I don't let things get to me … but you seem to hold on to every little thing. Get over it!") Both statements are in fact quite false.
1) Emotions are extremely important. A properly functioning emotional system leads to successful relationships and a chance at a happy life. Bonds, morals, and all emotional states have value. Now of course, if someone is extremely emotional or dysregulated that can be a problem as well, however, that's not our focus here.
2) Psychopaths are not 'controlling' their emotions or stress as they might tell their partners; they simply do not experience certain emotional states. They have an underactive amygdala. Therefore, they do not feel much anxiety or distress. To make comments regarding their control of emotions usually is a manipulative tactic. They are using their natural lack of emotional distress and lack of fear as proof of a higher level of functioning above their partner or others.
What is the connection between the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, emotions, and decision making?
When we make decisions, particularly those associated with a reward, pleasure or goal, the ventromedial prefrontal cortex is involved in communicating with several systems of the brain (Boes, Grafft, Joshi, Chuang, Nopoulos, Anderson, 2011). For instance, we have to be able to recall (automatically) what caused us to land in trouble and not repeat that behavior /decision again – extinction.
We have to be able to call upon our emotions, bonds we have, to make decisions that do not harm others who are in our lives. We have to be able to access the neurobiological system of morality to respond appropriately to what is right or wrong toward another. We need to have a controlling agent within our brain that can have an inhibitory role over the emotional brain or pleasure seeking region.
This seems to be associated with the ventromedial prefrontal cortex and its strong interconnections with other regions of the brain. However, when this system is dysfunctional, those actions (within the brain) do not take place the way they should, leading to big problems.

John Travolta conducts interview from his bed
John Travolta refused to get up to conduct an early morning interview with a U.K. radio station, so he spoke to the presenter from his bed. The Hollywood actor was booked to appear on a show with host Steve Wright last week (ends16Feb14), and he decided to conduct the chat over the phone from his home in Florida.
However, the interview fell at 6am local time, so Travolta stayed under the covers during the chat.
The actor told the host, "You caught me waking up… I'm waking up, I'm having coffee while I'm speaking to you. I am in bed. I have a proper tray with a silver (cup) of very strong coffee and some orange juice and I am sitting in bed talking to you… I'm cross legged on the bed and the tray is at my knees. Ive got the coffee right in front of me here…"
When probed further by Wright, Travolta joked, "Actually I'm naked right now."

A Shin Forward: Group 1 winner joins the roster at Lex Stud in JapanPICTURE: Masakazu Takahashi
Group 1 winner A Shin Forward to Lex Stud
A SHIN Forward, winner of the 2010 Group 1 Mile Championship at Kyoto, has been retired to stand at Lex Stud in Japan, according to a statement from the Japan Racing Association (JRA).
The seven-year-old American-bred son of Forest Wildcat retires as the winner of six of 31 starts and over $3.4 million in earnings.
In addition to the Mile Championship, A Shin Forward also won the Group 3 Hankyu Hai at Hanshin and ran a close third in the Group 1 Takamatsunomiya Kinen at Chukyo.
Trainer Masato Nishizono paid tribute to A Shin Forward in a JRA statement. He said: "We have a lot of memories with him. With his speed and American pedigree, he will be a good stallion."
Bred in New York by Edition Farm, A Shin Forward is the first foal out of the 2003 New York Champion Turf Female Wake Up Kiss, a daughter of Cure the Blues. He was purchased by Hirotsugo Hirai for $290,000 at the 2007 Fasig-Tipton Florida Select Two-Year-Olds in Training sale.

You may remember a couple of postings I wrote from the summer of 2006 about how Sears Canada had forgotten their brand promise. The essence of what I wrote was that Sears, by quietly abandoning their commitment to service, had become no different from the legions of other big box stores in the market.
Ordinarily I don't pay much attention to old posts, but this one is different. The original post has become a magnet for disatisfied Sears Canada customers, as hundreds have written their own stories and added them to the thread.
Tellingly, nobody from Sears has ever responded, except for the occasional Sears employee who has come by to defend the new policies. That is, until now. Someone claiming to be a Sears employee from the customer service department in Belleville has written to say that she has been put on notice by Sears for caring about customers. She handles 3.25 calls per hour rather than the mandated 6 to 8 because she takes the time to find solutions for customers. She takes too few breaks because sometimes solving a customers problem means that she can't get off the phone right away and she's unwilling to hustle the customer off the phone. It's affecting her team's "score", and that's reflected in her performance review.
Remarkable. She's concerned that it may result in her termination. I'd say give her a promotion and let her turn the department around.
The lessons for us all?
- Pay attention to what's being written about your company on the Internet. That should go without saying.
- Make sure that you're measuring the right things. Shouldn't Sears be measuring customer satisfaction rather than call durations?
- A company is made up of many individuals who all have different commitments to the corporation and to the customer. Find the gems in your organization. They're there. All you have to do is look.

Ed Young Television Devotional
Exercising Faith
Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord…. Psalm 40:4
To be human is to exercise faith. We have faith that the chair we are sitting in will hold us up. We have faith that the light will turn on when we flip the switch. We have faith that the person driving on the road will not cross into our lane. Life requires faith. We base that faith on what we have experienced and seen in the past.
When it comes to our faith in Jesus, the same is true. We look back at His track record and see how He has moved and what He has done, and that gives us the confidence to have faith in Him for the future. Our level of confidence in Jesus, our faith in who He is, and our faith in what He can do are all based on understanding who He has shown Himself to be and what He has done in the world and in our own lives. Don't live a life of fear based on doubt. Instead, use those doubts to fuel your faith and discover a life of freedom!
Thank God for what He has done in your life and in the lives of those around you. Pray for the strength to trust in Him, even in times of doubt and uncertainty.
Write down three ways in which you have seen God work in your life. Keep this card in your Bible, and add to the list in times you see Him move. Then, in times of doubt or uncertainty, read this card and thank God for moving in your life.
FIFTY SHADES OF THEY From New York Times Best-Selling Author Ed Young
Fifty Shades of They gives you fifty simple, yet profound insights that will help any relationship thrive, from friendships to business partnerships to marriages. Based on biblical standards and the teaching of Ed Young, this book is written for anyone who is looking to give new life to their relationships.

The 24-year-old Snowden star Shailene Woodley was arrested on October 10 for participating in a protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL), a crude oil pipeline that that will transport oil from North Dakota through South Dakota, Iowa and Illinois. On Sunday, the injunction to halt the installation of the pipeline was denied by the district court of appeals and hundreds of people turned out on Monday to protest its construction, since DAPL could potentially contaminate the clean water supply for the Sioux Reservation.
On Monday, around 200 people gathered in North Dakota for a peaceful protest against the DAPL. Woodley was among them, livestreaming the protest to her nearly 1.3 million Facebook followers, tens of thousands of whom were tuned in.
When the cops arrived in armored trucks to disband the protestors, Woodley and the others calmly started to vacate the premises, stopping here and there to give an interview on the way to Woodley's RV. That is, right up until the police grabbed Woodley by the jacket and forbade her from leaving. As Woodley's mother, Lori, held the camera, Shailene told the thousands of viewers:
"They grabbed me by my jacket and said that I wasn't allowed to continue... and they have giant guns and batons and zip ties and they are not letting me go."
Several moments later, they placed the actress under arrest for criminal trespassing. Now, after being released, Woodley has taken to social media to once again reaffirm her support for the #NoDAPL protest with the following Instagram post:
Another well-known figure has already come to the actress's defense on Twitter. NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden tweeted about Shailene's ordeal:
In the biopic Snowden, Woodley plays Lindsay Mills, Edward Snowden's girlfriend.
Snowden, which also stars Joseph Gordon Levitt, is now in theaters. If you haven't seen it yet, check out the trailer below:

Rated 3 / 5 stars
I say this isn't bad at all. Definitely a passable submission. The animating quality was fairly good, although I somewhat disagreed with the style of animation, but that's just my preference. It was a bit corny, but also kind of funny too. Good luck on future submissions.
the Apple Situation 2
Rated 4 / 5 stars
I'm eagerly surprised and shocked to say that I like this. I never watched the first Apple Situation, but I don't seem to have suffered for not watching it, since I'm all brought up to speed, which is good in my opinion. :)
For some reason unbeknowst to me, I thoguht this was funny, probably the expressions of satan and it's randomness. xD
Only gripes were the voice acting at very specific parts, and the detail. Not that there's anything wrong with a lack of detail, as long as the acting and the dialouge are up to par. It's just better to look at submissions with moar detail. At least the animation was pretty good in my opinion.
Good luck on the sequel!! :D
I hate my voice as well, don't think you're alone.
I was afraid this would be confusing to those who haven't seen the original, I'm glad to hear it wasn't!
Thanks for the review!
|~Snow Snow For Lucy~|
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I'm awe-shocked.
Honestly, this was a submission of epic porportions. Not because it had some awesome choreographed stick-fighting sequences, or because it submitted to Madness, or because it made any sort of common referances that we all that are familiar with on the internet.
This submission is epic because it is true to it's own, in truly every respect.
The entire submission proved to be quite long, as when I selected this, I wasn't even close ot expecting something to be like a DVD movie lol. I must say though that this submission at first appeared to be bizzare due to really all of circumstances and the characters, especially listening to Pink Floyd in the background.
Despite that though, it really played into the submission well. I would never have thought of a protagonist with missing arms, honestly. I also would not have been able to make her fit into a story so well either.
The athstetics are much resemblent to modern anime, but with some obscurity due to the lowered quality, obviously so, in order to submit something like this, something had to give, which is very easy to look past after being absorbed into the story.
Speaking of the story, it really is quite an interesting, involving and overall quaint story, but really studded with sorts of morals, the setting being quite minimal, but not to the disadvantage of the submission.
Overall, this is definately suitable for Christmas, sharing all sorts of messages, conveying a multitude of emotions, I love this submission.
Thank you for your appreciation. This project aint stunning or anything. But yeah, the only thing I dig is the morals. that's it yo. heheheh
Thank you for your time ! <3

Second Wind
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Now, I understand that this game has a real novel feel to it, and I really want to like it. I never got past the cave yet, although I've had the opportunity to level up at least a few times. It seems though, whenever I get to random occurances I just seem to need to use my second wind and die. I imagine this is a glitch, but so far I enjoy this game despite that issue.
You automatically die at random occurrences, or are you dying at random occurances?
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Yes, this is good.
And I advise that this game be played, it's definately fun, and a fine take too on being a climbing game, I really like it.
I sometimes had some really intense moments with the second game choice involving the asteroids, personally, that is the most fun feature, even if you spam the jump button, you still need some skill to maneuver efficitently.
I also liked the loop too, don't ask me why. >_>
Urban Feud
Rated 4 / 5 stars
This is pretty cool.
I liked this game, it seems to have strategy elements to it that seem honest, but this game could use a little polish is all.
For example, the grammar and punctuation could have been better, as people mostly cringe at this, but it's on the smaller scale for most flash submissions.
The animation was fine to me too, along with the art style, not that there was TOO much style involved with it, the submission all worked out just fine to make this game.
I think the gameplay works too, makes sense. Although, I didn't play it much, I bet others will play it a whole bunch more.
Good luck on future submissions!

Sad But True (Coverwank)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
This is cute.
I like Metallica, specifically this song. When I saw that this was on my feed I was all like 'OMFG THIS NOW.' And here I am currently.
Firstly, I want to look at the duration of this song, which is just under two minutes. Sir, wut? Just kidding, this was just, as you put it, wankery so then this is more like demo or a fun thing that you just did, but besides from that, I like this.
When I put this next to the actual Sad But True, the composition and main riffs are still there, but then there are some things that you put into consideration to alter. Some minor things, like the way that you held on certain sustains, minor change-ups in particular lines that had a rearrangement of riffs.
Although, you kept more the same. Such as the entire intro, that iconic drum fill, the main riff itself (albeit, it's muted instead, an interesting differentiation). You retained the same lyrics, and pretty much, you retained the same vocal style.
I can only say so much, because of a song THAT IS ONLY A MINUTE AND FIFTY-EIGHT SECONDS LONG. -ahem- Well, I'll be leaving here after giving you 4.5 starts, the .5 is only missing because of the shortness of your submission. Otherwise, everything is right where it should be. At least, in my opinion.
Thank you, sir. The length is an experiment. Mostly as a cover song for our band. Slide it in our set, when the crowd is overloaded with "new" stuff. Only adds two minutes for our set, yet brings the listeners back in.
The variations are my personal touch. Instead of sliding to the notes, I chunked them. I am not the guitarist in my band, so, it will be even different still. (if we decide to do it) We already use Holy diver as a cover. It's super rad. So another cover near the end of the set, this could do.
Also, I am not copying the song, just trying to make it my own. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the review, dude!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Well, dude. You never cease to impress. I really mean it, I dig pretty much all of your songs that you produce, with that said I'll start reviewing.
I noticed, this isn't a negative or positive, but this song has similar if not identical tonal qualities compared to your dark riffing song when I play them back to back. Now, as I said before, that's not an issue, just an observation.
With that being said, this song is kind of like a mixture of post hardcore stuff with some rhythmically catchy nuances and tones of Chevelle.
Yeah, with the rhythmic component is my main focus here. The riffs and that 'noise' that you harnessed early in the song set the tone perfectly. It's drudgy, snappy, yet dark and active. That seems to be a constant theme in your music and that I enjoy because it isn't a consistently found quality amongst most artists in general.
I like the way you build with the ascension within the song by building up individual bars in a verse or prechorus then the tension in that releasing in the chorus. I love that.
Also, throughout the song, you implemented descending parts such as the chorus, but also with the breakdown and parts following suit. I also enjoyed that you added sonal parts that were distinct. Although there wasn't anything in the way of a solo. That's cool, this song also fits into the nu-metal genre too. Man, that's alot of qualifications that this songs has...
Anyway, moving forward, you hit all the major frequencies and tones that I enjoyed, your percussion was basic honestly, although I did like the low toms at points, that was well implemented. Progression in this song was also up to par. Good, good. Now just repeat this a few more times and you have a well-executed album ;D
Oh, by the way. Ever since I added this song to my MP3 player I listened to it continuously. \m/
Now thats a review ! thanks a bunch man, really glad you like my tracks.
Dont really know what to say actually... Exept for you made my day man !
By the way soon i will go by the name Jacobus, jacobusmusic.newgrounds.com/
I will post remixes, updates and new songs on there from now on, just so you know ;) !
Thanks again man !

Feeding The Rage
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Frick. So much anger and rage. Dang brother let me review this.
So first off, groovy. I've never seen much of this grooving from you, seems like you're cleaning house and innovating, this is cool! It's interesting seeing you supplement your style to do something different but still vaguely the same. It's like a fresh twist of rage, I like it. It's only a touch of groove to your metal though, which is like a taste of lemon to some fine iced tea.
This broken jam of boomy stuff is really your forte. Your tone seems pretty dang good, did you get your tone issues resolved? It seems like the tone that you're using is pretty good by your standards. I can't help but notice that it's a bit more treble-y and has a bit more 'hiss' than your own tone, but despite a minor inconvenience it's still rocking like slow death. I recall that there was that tone pedal you mentioned once, but this doesn't exactly sound like it.
I notice that you've got some bass guitar in here. It adds some more bass to the bassey tone that you already have. Now if I had speakers, they'd get demolished by the sheer amount of bass that your songs put out. I like that, that's what I expect from Bad-Man styled metal.
I used a filter like that on my solos. I think it's a 4th or 5th octave higher. It's simple. Maybe you could steal Jonas again and you two could do a duo or something hahaha.
Your drums have some fills to them this time! Ahaha! I recall in The Rot I was making comments about that, and it seems like you changed that up, I like it. Cleaning house, man. It's moderate paced, like that jam sort of speed. Although here it's reworked to a slow death thing.
As I mentioned before, I'm jealous of your vocal style. It's just perfect, there's nothing that I need to really say about it. I notice that you use a bit of a different filter, I like it. It has that sort of submarine-announcer tone to it. Maybe one day, I'll abscond you from your stuff and I'll have you do some vocals on my stuff.
Anyways, it's good to see you back on the scene. Message me sometime if you want some more reviews.
Thanks for the uber review! Appreciate it! You don't always have to work so hard, I dig it, if you dig it. haha.
Yes, this is my old pedal, (or new version of my old pedal) I have all my old tones back.. I'm not using them here. I'm using some new sculpted ones, out of the old, and something else too. My taste for what my music is and was are two different things now. Joining a live band, has made me strive for a sound that is more ALIVE, than recorded. My old stuff, to me, sounds good, but it doesn't have that ...life, to it.
As for bass...our bands bass player has opened my eyes to the importance. Not just a deep drone in the background, but something dynamic to add to the song, rather than just supplement it. I'm no where near the bass player he is, but strive for a far better bass.
Drums. I have the best drummer on earth. Without question. Of everything I've learned over the last year, its that drums don't just carry a beat. As above, I strive for a more alive feel now. Our drummer would love to help me out and actually do the drums for these songs, but it is hard enough for us all to hook up for our own jams, let a lone a side project.
And as for vocals, I have really had to step up and improve them for my band. To equal their musicianship.. That helps me with my music a lot too...even if they are quite different genres. haha.
I'm relieved to hear that everything I've worked on is getting noticed. By the time I work on that movie soundtrack, I should have everything dialed, just the way i want it. :)
Cheers brother. Look for something new and heavier in the next week. Would appreciate your thoughts on that too.
Recent Art Reviews
#249 | Struggle
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Wow, I really do enjoy this submission. I honestly can't even find anything wrong about it, I really like this a lot. This may sound silly, but this art actually sort of connects with me.
It connects personally with me mostly because when I was younger, I used to be an avid collector of rocks and scrap metal. When I look at this piece of art, it reminds me exactly of that, and it reminds me of when I used to do that. How uncanny, huh?
You did it again, with your anonymous style of making things that are unrelatable and in an atmosphere of their own sentience. This one does look a bit like a few things though.
This does look like a quartzite material, like a semi-translucent stone made from quartz. It's really granular, and interlocking. It's a bit like one of those gems you find in the raw, how they're more pronounced from other rocks, yet still are dull and muted despite being a crystalline substance.
I really like the dull sheen you captured here. The way the light moves in the stone, is much like a marble in terms of where the dark and light areas end up.
You also put that rusty crack in this quartzy material too, that is cool. I do have a suggestion about it though. I know that it's a simple detail, but I find that it being so straight kind of implies that the domed section of the rock is flat, or on the same plane as with the section in the background. Now, I don't know if you intended that, but I see it there, and it was something I noticed.
Perhaps if there was a little more curvature to the crack, it would help express the depth of the curve from the dome? Regardless, I like this whole submission. Its rusty, coarse and milky all at the same time.
I know you like to put quotes on your work, but in my personal opinion, I think this submission would of had something detracted from it if it had words on it.
I like your work, and I still hope to see even more, my friend!
Thanks for your thoughtfulness. Stick around long enough and there will be new work to see. I bounce between Audio, Visual, and Written works, but always something.
tank concept
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Interesting, mate.
This is like some sort of cross between steampunk-esque and Gears of War style. :o
I really like how it's a half-track, and it's quite a bit rusty-looking, like an antique of war, dude. It also looks relatively simple, coppery or brassy, but on top of that, I really can't find anything wrong with this submission.
A brackground would be nice, but meh. :P
thanks for the feedback. I'll improve this design to make it more "possible". I'll ad some sort of mechanism so he can turn his front tracks and improve the back tires so they're more resistant to firepower. Maybe add some shielding or something.
{BT} Underground Symmetries
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Oh WOW.
Look at this! Look at this!
This piece looks like a hybridyzation of the matrix and your piece 'Guts' in terms of construction. I love this piece for some reason, it has an interesting vibe to it, like a digital tide almost.
Also, I commend you on using a different pallet of colors this time. The blues and reds are really cool for a color scheme, but it's nice to take a break from them every once in a while, dig?
Anyway, I like the little details in this... Like, this piece looks like it was etched out with a gel pen, if I were to give my honest take on the style. Not to mention the jaggedy-ness of the curves help relay a digital ridgid, pixelated feel, almost like sawblades, but not as lethal.
Cutting everything into boxes also did a similar effect, it's mysterious with those shades of green and black, I love it.
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.

Complaint Review: Geico Direct
Geico Direct ripoff last month I was canceled in the mail, no call, no explanation Internet
I think that my gripe is more with the whole industry than with any one company. I have always paid my premiums monthly no matter how high they have gotten and suddenly last month I was canceled. In the mail, no call, no explanation. I called and they said that I could get insurance with their "standard company" for 150.00 more a month. Thats around $600 a month. Of course thats 3 full coverage cars and one liability and like I said some young drivers.
My wife had had an accident in December. Ice. Thats ok and my stepson had a ticket. But what burns me up is that they can legaly count accidents against you in which you were not at fault. I was hit by someone else who slid on the ice not looking when they came to the end of a bridge. I hit 2 animals causing damage each time, and they counted my wifes accident not once but twice! I feel betrayed actually.
They, as a company really don't give a hoot about you its the almighty $ and I don't mean just a profit. There needs to be some legislation to prevent all insurance companies from persecuting us unfairly. I called today and got another agent and suddenly it is up to $700 a month or so. Thats after a $900 downpayment. This is after years of paying thousands of $ and talking them up to anyone who would listen.
Just be careful that you don't have any bad luck. I just wanted to say also that I can't beleive what I am hearing from current employees responding to these reports. Theres a lot of hostility there. Is that how you feel toward your customers, really? I am in a service industry and realize that people can be unreasonable but would never speak to them that way even if they were an ex customer. I think some of you need to seek anger management.

Hydra Mobile Generator & Water Purifier
The Hydra is a mobile power generator and water purifier that is ideal for disaster relief and other applications. The 16-foot-long trailer unit houses solar panels, that like the Hydrogen House itself, convert sunshine into hydrogen gas. The Hydra can operate off of freshwater, saltwater, and even polluted water to produce clean drinking water.
Sunlight powers an on board electrolyzer that splits water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen is stored as fuel and the oxygen stored for medical use. The on board fuel cell can convert the hydrogen into electricity to act as a mobile power generator, and also pumps dirty water through the on board filter providing purified water to meet the needs of 10,000 people per day.
The Hydra runs on clean renewable energy and is the only system of its kind in the world. It is easily deployable and can attach to a trailer hitch. The system is also scalable, and the components are industry tested for safety and reliability.

Entire Toad Hall estate for sale
Imagine having to put a price on another persons life work. Imagine the difficulty of estimating the value of something that took decades of time, heart and passion to buildjust to sell it on eBay.
Brian Schutzer had to do just that a little more than a week ago for Beverly and Larry Mason, owners of Toad Hall Books & Records.
It often pains me to try to put a price on an individuals lifes work, Schutzer said.
The Masons had both been collecting items since they were 8. Every item Toad Hall held was a small piece of their massive collection.
Beverly and Larry met in a used bookstore in Rockford in 1961. Both shared a love of collecting, and later shared a love of much more. When they were married in 1970, it seemed fitting they would open a shop for collectors.
What started as a store selling childrens books and comics in 1972, quickly grew into a priceless collection of many other items, including vintage records, sheet music, rare books, paperbacks, toys, movie posters, movie magazines, pulps and much more.
To those who knew about Toad Hall Books & Records in Rockford, it was a treasure. The Masons collection spread out into three different buildings, which included more than 20 rooms full of collectibles. There were well more than 500,000 items with various value ranges.
Toad Hall had at least 25,000 different comic books, sheet music and books as a part of their major collections.
The Masons had well more than 250,000 records, LPs, 78s, 45s and other extensive and diverse collections, some as old as Edison tubes.
Toad Hall also had minor collections, including movie posters, stills, press books, games, old toys, video game machines, puzzles, vintage magazines, and baseball cards.
A collection this size would be worth more than one could probably count. Unfortunately, Beverly passed away, and the collection was just too much for Larry to handle on his own.
So, the people who were running the estate had contacted Schutzer, who lives in New Jersey, to sell the items. Schutzer runs an eBay store called Neat Stuff Collectibles, where he usually sells large wholesale lots of other retailers.
We specialize mainly in comics, but we deal in all kinds of collectibles, he said.
He has been a registered eBay member since March 2000, and has a 98 percent positive feedback score.
The eBay auction started at $1 and was listed for 10 days. The auction ended Oct. 30 without the reserve amount being met. A total of 45 bids by at least 17 different users bumped the highest bid to $51,100.
Schutzer would not disclose what the reserve price was or what offer would make the deal, but he did say hes had offers and is thinking about relisting it on eBay.
When I put it on eBay, I didnt really think it was going to make the reserve, Schutzer said. Ive had a lot of people contact me, people from all over the world. If something doesnt work out, I might re-list it or I might just re-list it anyway.
Those interested in making an offer on the collection should contact Brian Schutzer at 800/903-7246 or 201/923-1230.

Near the top of all audio books I have listened to.
Lisette Lecat is truly outstanding. This is really a performance, not just a narration. I hesitate to recommend the text version because I don't know if I would have enjoyed it nearly as much as I did the audio version. I might have, but her reading was simply superb.
"So different and honest"
Fuller's biography about growing up as a white African during the 70s and 80s in each African country ruled/formerly ruled by the British is fascinating. She doesn't gloss over her own rough behavior or warts of her family. Their living experience is really interesting as it was totally different than growing up in the US during the same period.
"This is similar to my life"
I was born in Papua New Guinea in early 1970's to a Papua New Guinean mother and Scottish father. I could relate to alot of the issues and some incidents in the story - the racism, the colonist attitudes, hurt parents and the richness of the country.
I got a good sense of Africa (and I havn't been there).
Really liked the story. Olivia died by accident, it wasn't anyones fault.
"An interesting tale, well-told, but..."
Alexandra Fuller has led a fascinating life, not always by her own choosing. Her parents were untrustworthy, accidental carpetbaggers who fumbled through a sinister landscape to which they had no claim, and to which they felt entitled. The story Fuller tells is occasionally funny and often heartbreaking. It is her own story, and she is to be congratulated for surviving it. But this book is not for everyone, and will sometimes leave the listener feeling contempt for the primary personae. The lilting, perfect voice of Lisette Lecat, who also reads the more-affable "#1 Ladies Detective Agency" series, is always welcome.
"Superb, fascinating"
Fascinating, enchanting, well-written, beautifully narrated. Poignant story about women dealing with life and overcoming hardships amidst the harsh and foreign beauty of several different African countries as white foreigners. The story got better and more enjoyable with every hour I listened.
"Completely depressing."
Would not recommend this to anyone, regardless of age. Bear quality is author's ability to write.
"Hard to get into"
I doubt I would look for another book by Fuller. Lecat is a good narrator, but not so good that she can make a story that I didn't find compelling more so.
There didn't seem to be a real goal in the writing of it.
I read it for a book group and for that purpose it was, but I wouldn't have picked it up and finished it without that.
"Very well written, expertly read - narrator had a pleasant accent and made for easy listerpning."
I thought the story of Bobo's formative years was very interesting - her world and family so different and engaging, bold, unexpected, exciting.
The description of her family was fascinating, each member of the family described in a truthful yet witty way. Her mother was so much, fun and yet very sharp and unpredictable at times.
I recommend it to readers who enjoy great non-fiction in the form of a memoir - but a page-turner, taking place in some very dangerous places in Africa.
Sad but interesting. gave insight as to what it would be like to live in Africa.
"Glad I finally read this book!"
I bought the audible version a few days ago. I listened for two days and could not stop until the end. The book and the story are riveting and well written. The reader is amazing, one of the best I have heard.
