Gender-Neutralizing Hymns; Is It Right or Wrong?
@StephanieP wrote a really good blog today entitled I sang neutered Christmas songs today. In it she writes,
In Church today, a few lyrics of certain hymns were a bit different than I remembered them. "Good Christian Men Rejoice" had quietly changed to "Good Christian Friends Rejoice." In Joy to the World, where we had previously been commanded to "let men their songs employ," the verse now proclaims "let us our songs employ." God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen still references gentlemen, no longer encourages us "with true love and brotherhood, let others now embrace," but rather "with true love and charity…"
Stephanie feels that the gender-neutral changes are bad because they could lead one to believe there was something wrong with the original lyrics. In these cases, she worries that a person may think that perhaps the church which changes the altered lyrics is claiming that the original lyrics showed a type of unChristian chauvinism (though, all chauvinism is unChristian I suppose) and we don't want to lead people down that path since it isn't true of the author's intent.
I agree with her. However, I disagree that a change demands the notion that there was a problem with the previous work. Things can move from good to better or from one thing to a different thing. It doesn't have to be a bad thing to a good thing or a wrong thing to a right thing. Gender-neutralizing beautiful works isn't always an attempt to right wrongs or to say there was a problem with the work in it's original form. It's entirely possible that such action is merely an attempt to make the song more personal for different minded or nurtured participants. People in the 2012 might need to sing different words than people in 1912, 1812, or 12. I am of the opinion that we need to embrace our classics, even in their original form, but we must also sing evolved forms of our classics so as to be closer to the message than we otherwise might be. We can have both and I think we should.
Stephanie goes on to explain that "brotherhood" and "men" were not terms meant for males alone and she does a good job of presenting this truth in a short amount of time (clearly she is better as being short-winded than I). Again, she's right but even though they may not have been chauvinistic terms they easily can be today (and have been in recent history for some sects) and since times, culture, communal experiences, and perspectives change we need to be able to make sure that we're doing what we can to communicate the original message of these works.
Now, the message may not be heard the way it was originally if it were left in the same exact words. It depends on the involved parties. Changing up the lyrics can help with that in certain times and places. That's a good thing. It's worth pursuing. I think it's also a benefit to change lyrics in this fashion if it helps to show the characteristics of the people of God who embrace a kingdom in which there is neither Jew nor Gentile, slave nor free, male nor female. That is to say, if our changing of lyrics can shed light on the fact that we are a people who know our culture and desire to communicate the gospel message as best we can within that culture (be it in evangelism or isolated worship) then why not go for it?*
Finally, Stephanie makes the case that, "...we keep to the original text of the Bible and of Christmas hymns." Here's the rub though; if we're going to commit to keeping the original texts then we all better start learning Greek, Aramaic, and Hebrew and stand against English translations of the Bible. If we want to be really purist about this we shouldn't even have hymns that put scripture into English in their lyrics but rather we should only sing hymns that have scripture references in the original language. There is danger in changing the lyrics but I would argue there is as much, if not more, danger in being a purist about the original lyrics.
I see Stephanie's concern, and it's a good one, but while we fight being hyper-sensitive to an ever-changing pluralistic society we have to keep in mind the reality of the historic cultures from which the vocabulary used in those works derived and remember that those were cultures filled with chauvinism and male dominance. The lyrics may not meant to be chauvinistic but their may very well be born of a chauvinistic culture and thus possess the DNA of that culture within them. We can't ebb and flow with every passing fancy of our current cultures but we have to speak the language and we have to convey the Gospel message as appropriately as we can.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to push the agenda of relevncy being a top priority because I think focusing on relevancy itself most often a damaging action that leads us away from truly doing our work as the Church. At the same time, there is a balance between knowing our history, the true meanings and intentions of those wonderful works of praise and being intimate with the message of the works as a different community with different vocabularies and nurturing as the ones in which those works were birthed.
So let us be creative! Let us compliment one another! Let's share our art and do what we must with it for the sake of Christ's ongoing work which happens through his body and bride known as the Church. Let's do cover songs and switch up the lyrics whether we're doing it with the works of John Mark McMillan or Heinrich Suso.
*I realize that many will take issue with the altering of a deceased artist's work and that would be a big reason to not tamper with such masterpeices. We wouldn't give the Mona Lisa highlights in her hair or put her in a Lady GaGa outfit after all. However, when it comes to communicating the message of the scriptures, the love of God, the story of Christ, we are at liberty to release ownership of our art to the community so that we own it as a unified body that transcends time and place. If we accept this, claiming that the message is more important than the artwork remaining in it's original condition (in other words, saying that the message is more sacred than the catalyst) then we are at liberty to make such changes.
What do you think? Is it wrong or right to make our historic hymns gender-neutral? What issues need to be a part of this discussion? Is it black or white or gray? How purist can we be? Does your church sing altered hymns?

Starting today, a new feature lets you browse popular user-contributed photos from Panoramio at major landmarks around the world. The many people who virtually visit Paris to see the famous Eiffel Tower or the Notre Dame cathedral in Street View can now also browse the wide array of user photos taken in the vicinity. Just look for photo thumbnails at the top right of the Street View image, and click to view. You can also connect directly to the community behind this great photo content - a link to the author's Panoramio page is shown with every user photo.
The feature is available in many other places too: New York, San Francisco, Rome, Tokyo, Barcelona, Sydney and New Zealand, to name just a few. Anywhere, really, where Street View is available and where users have contributed lots of high-quality photos; of course, this usually is near famous landmarks but you never know where you'll discover more to see. With user-contributed photos you can inspect architectural details and close-up quirks, or see what is happening at a place at more than one time of day, or see whatever else it was that inspired the photographer to press the button. Take a look at this video to see more:
If you are a Panoramio user, you may already have a photo in Street View. If not, what are you waiting for? Just contribute your best photos to Panoramio and remember to geo-tag them. Google's image-matching algorithms will analyze them at some point to see if they are also a good match for a Street View location. At the most famous places in the world, competition for space is already tough -- take a look at the range of images of the Sagrada Familia -- but on less travelled roads the world is still largely a blank canvas. Please help to fill it in!

Seems to work very well. The 'blink' feature - after you have selected a photo, is a little distracting, I love the 'roll-out' of teh images from the deck.

Fuller California Coast has had a presence in Orange County for four decades, starting with an "office" in the former director's living room and classes that met in space borrowed from local churches and what was then known as Southern California College (now Vanguard University). We grew steadily, and eventually moved to an Irvine office park, where we remained for almost two decades. During that time, we became a fully accredited, degree-granting campus, offering five different master's-level programs, including the Master of Divinity. We recently moved to a new campus that will enable us to serve our students -- who commute to class from all over Orange and San Diego County -- much more effectively. In addition to high-tech classrooms, we have a new library, a student lounge, a seminar room, multiple "collaboration areas," and a large greenbelt area that's ideal for small-group discussion and retreat activities.
We invite you to visit our campus and see how God is using us to equip men and women for the manifold ministries of Christ and his Church. To schedule a visit, call us at 949-975-0775.

Thanks to the march of technology, skinsuits are not fast enough; you now need a swiftsuit in order to keep up. Assos has taken up the challenge and offers a one-piece suit that is faster than your skinsuit, the cS.Uno. cS is short for Chronosuit, an outfit for shaving time.
The Assos cS.Uno aeroChronosuit is faster in number of different ways. For one thing, it is designed to fit right only when in a racing position. When you contort yourself into it, it will feel too small. Stand up straight, and the front of the neck will pull down to the point that people might politely tell you that you should have sized up. Smile when you hear this. It means it fits right.
Loose clothing is slow clothing. Ripples in fabric flap when wind passes over them and disturbs the air flow. So Assos has finger-loops at the ends of their sleeves so the sleeve won't ride up the wrist and leave extra fabric for the wind to grab.
Assos also makes the cS.Uno aeroChronosuit faster by mixing in different kinds of spandex for the different panels. See the shiny stuff? Look at how the quad panels reflect light. This material is slipperier to the wind, called "low volume, low air resistant spandex." But they haven't made the entire suit out of it because it doesn't breathe well. So they use it strategically.
Likewise, they have A.Plethon spandex for the sleeves. This material is stretchier than regular spandex. Good for places where you need some movement. It also allows the suit to fit a wide range of body sizes. But if they made the whole suit of out this, it would be too stretchy. The rest is Assos' regular Type A430 spandex. Leg grippers are stitched to the edge of the short legs; it's a design Assos has found more comfortable than running the gripper under the edge.
This being Assos, there are a few things you can't see. There's a mesh radio pocket inside the suit. You can find it in the back, stitched to the seam between the top and the bottom, in the middle. They also have a small external zip pocket. It is also on the seam between the upper and lower halves of the suit. It's a small slash pocket atop the right glute. This is where you can stow your gel packets rather than have them sticking out of your short legs.
Sizing is important for the Chronosuit, possibly even more important than it is for shorts. Because you're supposed to stretch this skin around your body, follow the height measurement more closely than the weight measurement when deciding which size should fit you best. Because the shoulders have extraordinarily stretchy spandex, it will stretch to accommodate height.
Since the Chronosuit is a top-shelf item, Assos could only stitch in their primo S5 Uno chamois, the same one you find the S5 shorts. The new chamois is actually two separate pads with two separate stitchings. The layer next to your skin is softer than what you get on the S2. While it lacks in none of the elasticity of the original FI.13 chamois, it somehow feels less rubbery than the original. It's softer and it compresses less; it stretches it's not under so much tension. In other words, when it's being stretched, it doesn't try to snap back into place, so it won't abrade your skin as much. The chamois is dimpled, too, to facilitate heat ventilation. You'll also note a broad cut at the front of the chamois to further reduce pressure -- seen by the wide stitching in the front of the short.
The Assos cS.Uno aeroChronosuit comes in two color schemes: Black top with White accents and Black bottoms, and White top with Black accents and black bottoms. Sizing runs from Small through XLG.

Immigrants Learn About Immigration Reform in Springdale
By: KARK 4 News
Updated: February 17, 2013
Immigrants from across northwest Arkansas are gathering in Springdale to hear the latest on possible reform happening at both the state and national level.
The director of Arkansas United Community Coalition says there is a lot going on right now, both in little rock and the nation. The average immigrant here can't keep up with the latest news on reforms, either because the information isn't presented in Spanish or because they don't know how to find it.
The nonprofit brought in a panel of community activists and attorneys to dispel some myths and let people know that although no new laws have been passed legislators are considering comprehensive changes.
Activists say simply deporting people would hurt the economy and increase taxes, so they hope lawmakers will work together to find a solution that recognizes the important role of immigrants across the nation.

Yahoo CEO Scott Thompson may still have a job (for now) after padding his resume, but the woman responsible for hiring him is officially out.
Yahoo director Patti Hart, who was in charge of the company's CEO search, will not seek re-election at the next shareholder meeting. An exact date for the meeting has not been set, but last year's event was held in June.
Yahoo said Tuesday that it will not replace Hart on its board, bringing the total number of directors down to nine. The company's short statement about Hart's departure simply thanked her for her service and wished her well. Tech blog AllThingsD reported Hart's exit earlier in the day.
Hart, who joined Yahoo's board in 2010, is the CEO of International Game Technology. Statements from both Yahoo and IGT said that IGT's board asked her not to seek re-election at Yahoo.
"We believe her service as a member of Yahoo's board of directors could become a distraction from her responsibilities to IGT," IGT chairman Philip Satre said.
Hart's is the first head to roll in the scandal that erupted late last week, when activist shareholder group Third Point first alleged that Thompson lied about his college degree. Thompson's published bios have claimed that he holds a Bachelor's degree in both accounting and computer science from Stonehill College, but his degree in in accounting only.
Third Point also took a shot at Hart, whose published bios said she held a bachelor's degree in marketing and economics. Yahoo later clarified that Hart received a bachelor's degree in business administration, with specialties in marketing and economics, from Illinois State University.
IGT said its board thoroughly reviewed Hart's academic credentials and "found no material inconsistencies."
The criticism aimed at Thompson wasn't so easily smoothed over. Yahoo admitted last week that it had incorrectly stated Thompson's academic background, claiming the mistake was an "inadvertent error." The company's board said Tuesday that it has hired an outside counsel to conduct a review of the false statement.
It appointed the company's three independent directors to oversee the investigation. All three directors were named to Yahoo's board under Thompson's watch, after a board shakeup that wiped out most of Yahoo's previous directors. Hart's exit extends the tumultuous year for Yahoo's board.

Yes. Try the following:
;:one ;:two ;:three
which will result in

Okay this works for me... but what about a double indentation...?! ;:;: dont works :(
That gets more complicated. But it's possible:

"This is my third Honda vehicle. I have previously owned a Civic (which I loved) and a CRV (didn't like as much), but the Accord is by far my favorite. My only criticism is that the leather seat and door on the driver's side started peeling really bad and looks horrible. This car is reliable and the only major breakdown that I've had was the air conditioner stopped blowing cold air after the fifth year, but it was not a major cost for me. I plan to drive this car until it won't move anymore. I plan to get the seat and door repaired, as well as, a new paint job done this summer."

Child Welfare Trauma Training Toolkit (2008)
The Child Welfare Trauma Training Toolkit is designed to teach basic knowledge, skills, and values about working with children who are in the child welfare system and who have experienced traumatic stress. It also teaches how to use this knowledge to support children's safety, permanency, and well-being through case analysis and corresponding interventions tailored for them and their biological and resource families. Additional multimedia resources on this toolkit are available in the NCTSN Learning Center for Child and Adolescent Trauma.
The toolkit was developed by the National Child Traumatic Stress Network, in collaboration with the following organizations:
- Rady Children's Hospital, Chadwick Center for Children and Families
- Child and Family Policy Institute of California (CFPIC)
- California Social Work Education Center (CalSWEC)
- California Institute for Mental Health (CIMH)
The complete, full color version of the toolkit (in binder form, for easy use by a trainer) is available for purchase. Orders can be placed at the DocStore |
Page Contents:
- Introduction to the Toolkit (PDF)
- Trainer's Guide
- Slide Kit (PPT)
- Supplemental Handouts (PDF)
- LISA 9-1-1 Call (Audio File)
- Comprehensive Guide (PDF)
- Child Welfare Trauma Training Toolkit: Tutorial (Mediasite)
Introduction to the Toolkit (PDF)
This section of the Toolkit explains how the product was developed and piloted, and outlines the philosophy that guides the training content and activities.
Trainer's Guide
The Trainer's Guide is divided into seven modules and is supported by the Comprehensive Guide. The Trainer's Guide can be downloaded as a single PDF file, or as individual modules (see list and descriptions, below).
The seven modules vary in length and together total approximately 12 training hours. The curriculum can be presented in two full days, 7.5 hours each day (including a one-hour lunch break and two 15-minute breaks); in stand-alone modules; or as a multi-session in-service.
Introduction to the Trainer's Guide (PDF)
The introductory materials begin with the Cover Page, Acknowledgements, and Table of Contents. Also included are the Materials Checklist, Goals and Learning Objectives, Sample Daily Agendas, and Lesson Plans.
Module 1: Creating Trauma-Informed Child Welfare Practice: Introduction to the Essential Elements (PDF)
The module begins by making connections between trauma-informed practice and the Department of Health and Human Services' Child and Family Services Review (CFSR) goals of safety, permanency, and well-being, utilizing a small group discussion and large group report-back activity. Next, participants are given an overview of the Essential Elements of trauma-informed child welfare practice, utilizing a lecture format. This presentation is followed by an opportunity for participants to review the Comprehensive Guide and identify ways in which the Essential Elements may be translated into practice.
Module 2: What is Child Traumatic Stress? (PDF)
A foundational lecture, supported by PowerPoint slides, is the primary medium for this module. It is augmented by an audio clip and a vignette discussion. The slides introduce and define child traumatic stress, complex trauma, trauma and the brain, resiliency factors, and what child welfare workers can do to mitigate the impact of trauma. Developmental and cultural influences on trauma responses are also discussed.
Module 3: The Impact of Trauma on Children's Behavior, Development, and Relationships (PDF)
Module 3 emphasizes the first three Essential Elements: maximize the child's sense of safety; assist children in reducing overwhelming emotion; and help children make new meaning of their trauma history and current experiences. Significant time is spent exploring how trauma affects developmental trajectories and the role that symptoms and behaviors play in a child's attempts to cope and self-regulate. Participants distinguish between physical and psychological safety, and the child welfare worker's role in aiming to secure both. The module utilizes lecture and PowerPoint slides, small and large group discussions, a simulation activity, and case vignette analysis. Workers are also given an opportunity to apply lessons learned to actual cases they provide.
Module 4: Assessment of a Child's Trauma Experiences (PDF)
This module covers the next three Essential Elements: address the impact of trauma and subsequent changes in the child's behavior, development, and relationships; coordinate services with other agencies; and utilize comprehensive assessment of the child's trauma experience and its impact on the child's development and behavior to guide services. Significant time is spent discussing trauma-informed care, including the importance of trauma assessment and trauma-focused, evidence-based treatment. The Child Welfare Trauma Referral Tool is introduced with the goal of providing a way for child welfare workers to organize information and make informed decisions about the type and appropriateness of mental health referrals. Participants' understanding and skill in using the tool are measured using structured vignettes.
Module 5: Providing Support to the Child, Family, and Caregivers (PDF)
The module begins with a brief lecture about Essential Elements 7 and 8: support and promote positive and stable relationships in the life of the child; and provide support and guidance to the child's family and caregivers. Suggested video clips (see links to videos in Resources list) and a handout introduce participants to children's thoughts and ideas about the importance of stable relationships in their lives, and furnish child welfare workers with tools for supporting caregivers. Participants then apply these Essential Elements to a case vignette.
Module 6: Managing Professional and Personal Stress (PDF)
This module contains a brief lecture about secondary traumatic stress (STS), followed by a case illustration. The vignette discussion addresses worker susceptibility to STS, its warning signs, and strategies for managing stress. The module concludes with participants completing a Self-Care Inventory, Work/Life Balance handout, and/or an opportunity to practice a relaxation/stress reduction exercise
Module 7: Summary (PDF)
This module provides a menu of concluding activities that can be used by the trainer, as time permits.
Appendices (PDF)
Appendix A, Optional Follow-Up 1-3 Months After The Training, outlines a plan for following up with participants one to three months after completion of the training. Appendix B, Additional Case Vignettes, provides three extra vignettes that may be used as supplemental material or as substitutes for the vignettes that are suggested throughout the training. Appendix C, References and Bibliography, lists the sources that were accessed and reviewed by the curriculum designer(s) to prepare and to write the main, supplemental, and background content information; training tips; training activities; and any other information conveyed in the training materials. This section also includes web sites and other helpful resources. Appendix D provides a brief description of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) and California Partners
Slide Kit (PPT)
The Slide Kit consists of a comprehensive PowerPoint presentation that accompanies the Trainer's Guide. Integrated into the Trainer's Guide are notes that identify which PowerPoint slides the trainer should use to accompany each module.
Supplemental Handouts (PDF)
The Supplemental Handouts consist of a variety of resources and handouts that are referenced throughout the Trainer's Guide. They can be downloaded as a single file or as individual handouts (see list, below). Trainers are encouraged to make copies of these materials and provide them to each participant during the training.

LISA 9-1-1 Call (Audio File)
The Lisa 9-1-1 Call is a short audio clip of an actual 9-1-1 call made to San Diego emergency services by a young girl who was witnessing a domestic violence incident between her parents. It is used to guide an activity in Module 1 of the Trainer's Guide.
The Comprehensive Guide provides background reading material that is consistent with the Trainers' Guide. It is intended as a resource to help child welfare workers learn more about the impact of child traumatic stress among children in the child welfare system. The Comprehensive Guide defines child traumatic stress; provides information about the incidence and impact of trauma on children in the child welfare system; describes the Essential Elements of trauma-informed child welfare practice, and explains the importance of trauma assessment and how to identify trauma-informed providers.
Child Welfare Trauma Training Toolkit: Tutorial (Mediasite)
This 40 minute tutorial walks viewers through the Toolkit and highlights the resources and content in each section. The goal of this tutorial is to demonstrate how different components of the Toolkit--the Slidekit, Trainer's Guide, Comprehensive Guide, Supplemental Handouts, activities, case vignettes and evaluation--can be used in a training. This train-the-trainer manual has been developed to be utilized for a two day training.


text: Bees are never alone. Each is many, and they delight in tricking the observer. How many times has a single bee lost in your room suddenly multiplied to six or seven, even though all the windows are closed, and mouse vents along the floor or behind the refrigerator definitely sealed with plaster and poison? These supernatural invaders practice an entertaining magic organized into certain genres; said genres also have a certain hierarchical ranking among members of the bee-haunt trade (actually, the multiplication trick isn't much thought of in these bee guilds, considered as about the rough equivalent of a card or scarf trick). Here you can see a relatively less skilled set of bees (actually a single bee tricking your eye) showing how, through simple acrobatics, it is possible to generate hexagons and other multiples. |

Ensuring Product Safety
Compliance Code of Conduct (Ensuring Product and Service Safety)
Yamaha takes all possible measures to ensure that its products, services and facilities do not in any way damage the mental and physical well-being as well as the belongings of its customers. If by some chance, the Company's customers are in any way inconvenienced, steps are immediately taken to provide relief and to prevent any recurrence.
Taking Immediate Action When Faced with a Product Safety Issue
The Yamaha Group has put in place a system that enables a faster response to ensure the safety of customers. In the event of a product safety issue in the marketplace, employees who receive notification of a safety problem report it immediately to the applicable department and the Quality Assurance Division. After receiving the report, the head of the Quality Assurance Division promptly convenes the relevant departments from across the company, moving to respond to affected customers, notify the appropriate government authorities, initiate measures aimed at preventing recurrence and report to top management.
Responding to Product Safety Issues
In fiscal 2011, the Yamaha Group decided to file a recall report with Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, directly notify customer via mail as well as inspect and repair free of charge defects in one product, Silent House, that could have potentially resulted in injury to customers.
"Silent House" is an outdoor type soundproof room for which a recall report was filed in November 2011. There is a probability that the eaves over the entrance will fall down due to the onset of rust caused by the intrusion of rainwater from the caulked part of the eaves. As of May 31, 2012, Yamaha had completed response for 165 of the 215 products sold in total by conducting free inspections and repairs of the eaves.
Complying with Product Regulations and Standards Worldwide
Yamaha has developed a structure for full compliance with regulations and standards worldwide pertaining to product quality and safety as well as environmental protection.
For example, demand has in recent years expanded for the quick development and sale of products that comply with the increasingly stringent international standards that apply to electromagnetic waves. In responding to these calls, Yamaha has established within its headquarters a quality evaluation facility equipped with an array of measuring, analytical and evaluation devices including state-of-the-art electromagnetic wave-measuring facilities. The design division plays a leading role in evaluating product and component prototypes for compliance with respect to the regulations of relevant countries at this facility.
An anechoic chamber used for electromagnetic wave measurement
Product Safety Training
In fiscal 2010, The Yamaha Group has initiated human resource training as well as product safety courses in efforts to prevent product safety issues from arising. In addition to introducing case studies of specific safety issues, the Group has commenced training courses in essential safety design policies as well as statutory and regulatory requirements with respect to product safety. During two years between fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2011, these courses were attended by a total of 83 employees comprising mainly engineers and personnel from development areas.
Initiatives Aimed at Raising the Level of Product Safety Awareness and Capabilities
The Yamaha Group places considerable emphasis on taking precautions during the development, design and production stages to prevent any incidence of product safety issues. From fiscal 2010, the Group has reinforced its design review procedures with respect to product safety across the development and design divisions.
Furthermore, additional weight was placed on uncovering and predicting risks inherent in products from their design stage and use. Excluding their causes, the Group is ramping up its pursuit of essential safety design and promoting risk assessment that takes into consideration product design processes.

Fun on city sidwalks
By smidgentigre
from Warren, MI
Best Uses
Our son got this for Christmas 2012 from Grandma & Grandpa. He rode it a little when there wasn't snow on the sidewalks but, ever since the weather has warmed up, he's been out riding it every day. He turned 9 in February. The other neighborhood kids think it looks pretty cool but he hasn't let them ride it yet--it's still too special for him. He loves the handbrakes and the knee pad. Has not fallen off it yet. It's not as fast as his bike but he likes to zip around the neighborhood on it.

CoD 4, can do
Im from center Europian country Slovakia ( not Slovenia, learn the fucking difference ) so I have to look into time lapses between our time zones.
Anyway, we should upgrade the game list. I say we can put FIFA 2008 in there ?
Or what about Tekken 3 through PSX emulators, it works ?
Or CS 1.6, mangashare server ?
Or something else ?
Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Fairy Tail, Claymore, Ao No Exorcist, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Gamaran, Toriko, Vinland Saga, Gantz, Wolf Guy, Deadman Wonderland, Vagabond, Blade of The Immortal,
i dunno . i think only the famous ones that people would have and want to play. anyone have xfire add me - antec5000
anyone wanna play now? ill play on this server 18.104.22.168:28960. its british server for cod 4 tdm. or u guys tell me wat u wanna play on and ill join u. my cod 4 name is S.O.A.
PC shooters >>>>> console shooters. Screw auto-aim.
Unfortunately, I decided to quit online games a long time ago, so I'd have to pass.
I'm curious, anyone else here play Marvel vs Street Fighter through an emulator? We can play online, and I think it'd be rather fun to play with everyone.
I currently only have COD4, Team Fortress 2 and Star Craft.
I Love You!
This is gonna be fun. I shall play. Whichever game, cuz I can just download em.
Yeah MvsSF, I'd rather that to Tekken or COD4, but it's up to anyone else. It's easily downloadable and I uploaded it for anyone to try, here:
It is the emulator with the roms already in their respective folder, all you have to do is start up the emulator and go to open, on that screen you have to click on scan for available and you'll see the games you can play. For Instance Marvel vs Street Fighter, anyways this emulator plays akin to an arcade, so you have to insert coins by pressing F3 (you have infinite coins) and join the game with F1. You move with the arrow keys and the buttons to play with are:
q w e
a s d f
z x c v
Playing online is as easy as clicking on file --> netplay, you choose a server, open up a game and have others join your room. Though if we do this tournament for this, then we'll have to have our own server or just use one of the good (but crowded) servers out there.
Shit all my games are pir... er borrowed. But if we are to do something I would get involved.

Local Colleges: Bournazos fuels surge as Neumann takes down Norwich
Trailing the No. 1 team in Division III men's hockey on the road in the third period was no problem for Neumann Saturday night.
The Knights had Chris Bournazos on their side.
Bournazos tallied twice, including the winner with 11:17 to play in the game, as the Knights scored three unanswered goals in the third period to win the Northfield Savings Bank Holiday Tournament with a 5-3 come-from-behind victory over top-ranked Norwich.
Bournazos earned MVP honors as the Knights (7-5-2) rallied from a 2-0 and 3-2 deficit to hand Norwich (11-1-0) its first loss of the season. Neumann scored twice in the second period to tie the game and netted three unanswered goals after the host Cadets took a 3-2 lead early in the third period.
Women's Basketball
Swarthmore 62, Franklin & Marshall 60
Elle Larsen had this one in the bank.
The sophomore forward from Hempfield High banked home both ends of a one-and-one with 6.4 seconds to lift the Garnet over the Diplomats in Centennial Conference action.
Larsen came up huge in the final minute to keep the Garnet (9-1, 5-0) undefeated in league play. She fed Katie Lytle for a tying 3-pointer with 53 seconds and was fouled when he pulled down an offensive rebound off of Eliza Polli's missed 3-pointer with time winding down.
Widener 76, Lycoming 42 Continued...
Jennifer Egee (Ridley) tallied 20 points, 11 in the second half, to get the Pride (10-3, 5-1) back on the winning track. It was Egee's third game with at least 20 points. She also grabbed eight rebounds in 22 solid minutes.
Senior Kate Dellinger posted her fourth double-double of the season ith 15 points and 10 rebounds.
Eastern 68, PSU-Brandywine 41
The visiting Eagles went on a 24-2 run to erase a 6-2 deficit and roll over the Lions. Eastern scored 19 straight points in the outburst.
Meghan Nowak led the way with 16 points and 11 rebounds. Reilly Gavitt added 14 points and Kaitlyn Dougherty 11 for Eastern (6-7).
Cabrini 58, Keystone 46
The Cavaliers (9-3, 4-0) used defense and rebounding to stay undefeated in the CSAC. Cabrini held Keystone to 29 percent shooting, forced 19 turnovers and had a commanding 52-36 advantage on the glass.
Brittany Sandone paced the offense with 15 points. Annie Rivituso added 13 points and 16 rebounds. Kristina Startare chipped in with 10 points.
King's 76, Neumann 66
The Knights trimmed a 22-point deficit to 69-61, but could not complete the comeback. Laura Scott led Neumann (4-8) with 16 points. Bethany Humenik added 14 points. Colleen Hinde pitched in with 12 points and JoHanna Metzger 10. Continued...
Clarion 65, Cheyney 61
The Golden Eagles made just enough free throws in the final minute (4-for-8) to hold off the Wolves.
Faye Dunston and Kyra Hines-Allen paced Cheyney (0-9, 0-6 PSAC East) with 14 points each.
Saint Joseph's 66, Penn 53
Chatilla van Grinsven and Natasha Cloud (Cardinal O'Hara All-Delco) combined for 46 points to give the Hawks (9-5, 1-1 Big 5) a win in their final nonconference outing.
Van Grinsven scored a career-high 27 points and 15 rebounds. Cloud finished with 19 points, eight rebounds and six assists.
Men's Basketball
Widener 86, Lycoming 78
Junior Rodney Brown, sophomore Dillon Fields and senior Adam Ahern all saved their best for the second half as the Pride stunned the league-leading Warriors in MAC Commonwealth Conference action.
Brown scored 16 of his career-high 25 points in the second half to extend the Pride's winning streak to two games. Continued...
Fields netted nine of his 15 points after the break. Ahern added eight of his 13 as the Pride (4-9, 3-3) shot 55.2 percent from the field in the final 20 minutes (16-for-29) and 52 percent (30-for-58) for the game. Bob Makor and Andrew Radomicki (Penncrest) chipped in with 12 points each.
Haverford 77, Dickinson 60
The Fords (5-6, 3-3) shot a blistering 17-for-29 from the field, including 5-for-9 from 3-point range, to blow the game open in the second half. Haverford scored 53 points in the final 20 minutes to erase a 28-24 halftime deficit.
Gibby Graves paced five Haverford players in double figures with 19 points. Brett Cohen added 18,Louis Cipriano 15, Lucas Colombo 11 and Eli Schwarz 10.
Cabrini 94, Cairn 56

DCCC 83, Manor 76
Tayqwane Wallace saved 16 of his team-high 31 points for the second half, and also had 10 rebounds and three assists to lead the Phantoms (7-7) to their first nonconference win of the season.
Franklin & Marshall 81, Swarthmore 58
Hayk Gyokchyan and the 17th-ranked Diplomats (11-1, 6-0 Centennial) were too much for the Garnet.

Senior Will Gates paced Swarthmore (3-10, 2-4) with 23 points and five rebounds.
Cheyney 72, Clarion 60
Jason Sabb had another big night with 22 points to help the Wolves (5-6) snap a two-game losing streak. Eugene Lett chipped in with 17 points, while the Cheyney defense forced 17 turnovers.

Day 04. Which is/are your favourite scene(s) in the anime?
all right, so when i started watching kurobas, i never had any intense feelings for kuroko. if anything, i had intense feelings for kagami. kuroko was unique (and yes, cute) but he wasn't excitable as a character especially during the beginning. the first glimpse i had of kuroko was his annoyance during the match with papa, where he was called a kid. a slight furrow of his brow, that was it.
but then this episode. this beautiful episode where the entire team was driven against a wall (that is midorima) and we see kuroko standing up to kagami. it asserted the fact that the reason why kuroko came up with his own way to play basketball was because he didn't like how the generation of miracles played it. he wanted a victory where everyone would be proud, where everyone would be happy. cheesy—as staple shounen lines may be—but he has a point. and coming from kuroko, with that intense look in his eyes, this is delivered in perfection.
this is also probably the scene where i started liking kagami/kuroko. they have so much unspoken understanding, and they know when to keep each other in line. i am always so easy for pairs who connect on a different level.
ANOTHER FAVORITE EPISODE IS EPISODE 17 BECAUSE A O M I N E. enough said. (no gifs because i think i reblogged the shit out of that episode already)

There was unfailing support from all around Mary Jane Stillwell's life. At home, in her church, on Facebook, at her school and even in the grocery store when strangers recognized her face and offered words of encouragement.
Still, having breast cancer can be a lonely walk to take when thoughts of what the future could hold pound in your head like a really bad headache. Even when her days were filled with laughter and hugs, and sometimes tears, there was the gentle reminder that the 38-year-old married mother of three had cancer.
That has been the Stillwells' life since the afternoon of Aug. 17 when a voice on the other end of the phone confirmed her greatest fear: She had cancer.
That was then, and this is now. Stillwell, after 16 rounds of chemotherapy at James Graham Brown Cancer Center in Louisville and a mastectomy, is cancer free.
Those two words are knee-buckling to cancer patients and their families, if heard at all.
"They are the best words," Stillwell said. "We had prayed so much. We prayed before we went into surgery and put everything in the Lord's hands. But hearing those two words is hard to describe."
When Stillwell and her husband, David, told their three children the news, an anxious time turned joyful with smiles and tears emerging on faces all around the room.
Stillwell underwent surgery on Feb. 28 at University Hospital in Louisville. A week later, the results of a nuclear dye test to identify if there was cancer in any of Stillwell's lymph nodes were ready to be read: There was no sign of cancer according to the pathology report, she said.
This was a seven-month journey that has changed the family's lives forever.
"It's like we have been in a fog," she said. "Even though things happened quickly, it doesn't seem like it has been seven months."
Life has zipped by with countless trips to Louisville for treatments and the hours that have turned to days, lost in thought.
"Because there is so much to remember to do and all the doctor visits, you were always doing something," David Stillwell said. "You were always on the go, so it went by fast."
Even days after hearing there were no signs of cancer, the Hodgenville couple has the constant reminder of what they have just gone through.
"We were talking over the weekend and she said she felt like she lost part of her life because of the chemo," David said. "In return, she got her life back from the chemo."
She will take Tamoxifen, an anti-estrogen pill to block possible cancer cells from reappearing, once a day for the next 10 years. She will visit an oncologist every four months and then next year every sixth months. Should there no be no cancer issues, her visits will become annual.
Stillwell knows early detection is the key to beating breast cancer. "That means everything," she said. "If my story does anything, I hope it is that women check themselves early. I have had women come up and tell me that they have changed what they do because of hearing about me. That is just great."
The future for Stillwell and her family includes many things, like family time and possibly a spring break trip to New Orleans. Maybe the beach this summer.
"On the day of the surgery, I was more nervous, I think, because it seemed to take a little longer than expected," David said. "And then hearing she was good, that was extra wonderful. It was just a big relief to hear those words."
Jeff D'Alessio can be reached at (270) 505-1757 or email@example.com.
Mary Jane Stillwell is a 38-year-old married mother of three who loves to spend time with her family. She works as an instructional assistant at Abraham Lincoln Elementary School in Hodgenville.
She is now a breast cancer survivor.
News Editor Jeff D'Alessio followed Stillwell's journey for this occasional series as she battled cancer.

Having trouble getting over the hump? Luckily, there's new music from !!! (pronounced "chk chk chk") that'll get you through your Wednesday and on your way to the weekend. Yeah, they have a weird name, but their music is funky enough to give them a pass. How can you say no to that manly falsetto and funk guitar? They're like the hipster version of the Bee Gees (that's a good thing, obviously).
"One Girl/One Boy" is the lead single from !!!'s new album, Thr!!!er, which will be released on April 30th. It'll be a toe tapper for sure. Check out the single below, and if you like what you hear, pick up tickets to the band's June 1st show at El Rey Theatre with White Arrows.

There are 6 main issues that people often complain of, but feel helpless to do anything about.
The Greene's Release materials show us how we can change any circumstance in our life by reawakening our innate skills that have been restricted by our fears and beliefs, then applying them alongside the Greene's Release Technique to completely and permanently dis-solve any issue.
Do you dwell on problems without finding answers?
Rather than use our valuable time to continually rehash problems and issues, we can stop and remind ourselves to feel, listen and resolve the issue completely, using an easy method called the Greene's Release Technique.
Can you imagine how much free time you will have when you have no problems to think about? What might you do? Perhaps dream and create wonderful future experiences to have.
Do you feel bad about yourself without knowing how to change the way you feel?
Every single thing we think about ourselves is something someone else told us to believe. Now that we know this, we can use the Greene's Release Technique to release these false beliefs and replace them with our own very special ones.
Imagine how different your life will be when all of the negative things you say to yourself are gone. Imagine feeling good about you!
Do you watch nightmare situations happen without feeling like you have any control to stop or change them?
There is a reason for every situation and experience, therefore we can decide that we never wish to experience them again, and permanently remove the reasons why they occur with the Greene's Release Technique.
Do you feel sad because you don't have the things you want, but have no idea how to get them, or belief that you actually can get what you want?
Using simple techniques, we can discover the things that we truly want from deep inside, plan a dream life, and then remove all obstacles that prevent their becoming our reality.
Do you feel, then tuck your strong emotions away without realizing the impact they have on your physical and emotional health and well-being?
When we don't allow ourselves to feel, our body does it for us. That is why we feel the physical pain of our emotional pain. When we allow ourselves to feel deeply, we are then able to finish with experiences and permanently release the emotion.
Have you ever used drugs, medication, alcohol, depression, smoking, eating, gambling or thoughts of suicide to try and escape your life, because you don't realize that you have any control of the life you live?
It is natural to become overwhelmed when we live lives of pain and despair, but then cannot find a way out. We can release the overwhelming emotions and fear, then work to heal and create the life that will make us smile rather than want to run.
