Okay now this may seem dumb but, can dryads block cannon shots for my treeman or treekin. I have tried this but my friend just aimed right over my dryads onto the treekin behind them. It's was all uphill so he couldn't see my treekin through my dryads but he fired his cannon at the treekin as if the dryads weren't even there. I'm rambling aren't I. Now is this even allowed, because if it is then I could only hide my treemen or other monsters behind building that can't be shot through.
I really need a clarification on this.

(HealthDay News) -- A sore throat is among the most common medical maladies. But it shouldn't be ignored, since a sore throat could represent a harmless problem or a serious illness such as strep throat.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says possible causes of a sore throat include:
A virus, such as the flu or common cold.
A bacterial infection.
An allergy.
Dry air.
Air pollution.
Smoking or exposure to secondhand smoke.
Similar to global positioning systems, image-guided surgery systems provide real-time images that can help the surgeon navigate inside the sinuses for precise removal of diseased tissue while avoiding critical areas.

Two men charged with burglary and theft
Published: Monday, July 30, 2012 at 11:32 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 30, 2012 at 11:32 a.m.
A Marion County Sheriff's Office deputy spotted two men loading a small boat onto a van in Silver Springs late Sunday.
When the deputy pulled up behind the van just after 10 p.m., in the 16300 block of east State Road 40, one of the men ran and jumped a fence.
The second man, Robert Joseph King, 25, later told the deputy that the two spotted the boat earlier at Don's Trading Post and wanted it for their personal use. He said they also took two tool boxes, which they planned to sell, according to sheriff's reports.
The boat and tool boxes were valued at $500.
The man who ran, David Daniels, 26, was arrested a short time later.
Both men were booked at the Marion County Jail on one count each of commercial burglary and grand theft. Daniels was additionally charged with resisting arrest without violence and violation of probation for driving with a suspended license.
King was being held at the jail Monday in lieu of a $35,000 bond. Daniels was being held without bond.

The Green Ribbon Committee's forum for Menlo Park council candidates will not take place on Saturday, Oct. 6.
Read the full story here Web Link posted Thursday, October 4, 2012, 9:10 AM
Posted by Scott McMahon, a resident of the Menlo Park: The Willows neighborhood, on Oct 5, 2012 at 2:25 pm
Can't make it. Hope there will be an article about it later detailing the candidates positions.
Posted by Adina Levin, a resident of the Menlo Park: Central Menlo Park neighborhood, on Oct 5, 2012 at 4:05 pm
The candidate forum is being rescheduled. Watch for a new date early next week.
In the meantime, you can read the visions and opinions of all five Candidates for Menlo Park City Council regarding crucial transportation and land use issues that affect the environment, economy, and quality of life.
* Where should Menlo Park add new Housing in its housing element?
* How can Menlo Park make our Safe Routes to School programs more effective
* How can traffic congestion in Menlo Park be addressed in the upcoming revision of the city�s General Plan?
* What should be the future of El Camino - 6 vehicle lanes, or adding sidewalk curb extensions and bike lanes
* What should be the city�s goals for future zoning updates in the M2 industrial area near Facebook?
Read answers to these and more questions here: Web Link
Posted by Koolaid , a resident of the Menlo Park: Central Menlo Park neighborhood, on Oct 5, 2012 at 6:10 pm
Seems as though all the candidates want to put housing on El Camino. That's about the last street on El Camino that needs more traffic. Let's not fool ourselves about people taking the bus. They don't. It's way too slow. And Caltrain? It's great(a)if you're going to San Francisco(b)during commute hours. Otherwise, it's just another traffic impediment.
I don't see any of the candidates showing any understanding our appreciation of these issues, and one of them has served on the counci for two terms already!
I'd like to see just a glimmer of understanding from one of them. If you had housing, then you also need more schools, parks and recreational spaces, stores, No one is even talking about where the kids of these thousands of new residents are going to attend school; the MPCSD superintendant says the schools are at capacity. "Let's put more housing on El Camino is not the answer to any question.More problems, fewer answers, empty rhetoric from every candidate.
Thanks for the link, Adina.

Israel Museum Restitutes Drawing by Paul Klee to Estate of Pre-World War II Owner
Paul Klee, Swiss, active Germany and Switzerland, 1879-1940.Veil Dance, 1920.
The Israel Museum
announced today the restitution of the Paul Klee drawing Veil Dance, 1920, to the estate of German art collector Harry Fuld Jr. Fuld owned the work from 1932 until 1941, when it was confiscated in war-time Germany. The drawing was received in 1950 by the Israel Museums precursor, the Bezalel National Museum, through the Jewish Restitution Successor Organization (JRSO), established after World War II to distribute looted works of art whose owners or heirs were unknown to cultural organizations around the globe. The restitution was facilitated by the firm of the late German restitution expert Dr. Jost Von Trott zu Solz, after new research brought the drawings provenance to light. Veil Dance is now donated, as a part of the estate of Mr. Fulds heir, Gita Gisela Martin, to Magen David Adom UK, Israels equivalent service to the Red Cross.
The Israel Museum strives to serve as a model for responsible restitution, and we are pleased to do so now by restituting this work in exemplary fashion, as we have in other instances in the past, said James S. Snyder, Anne and Jerome Fisher Director of the Israel Museum. As part of a notable series of works on paper by Klee, Veil Dance amplified an important dimension of the Museums collection, which includes his masterful Angelus Novus, 1920, along with eighteen other works on paper by the artist. However, it is gratifying that, in restituting this work, it is donated to Magen David Adom UK, an organization that supports a major charitable cause in Israel.
Veil Dance was among the works of art Mr. Fuld deposited with the transportation firm Gustav Knauer when he fled Nazi persecution in 1937, with the intention of taking his collection with him to England. In 1941, following a new law by which Jewish citizens who had left Germany lost their German nationality and property, his citizenship and assets were revoked, and his art collection was confiscated by the Third Reich. In 1948, works of art and Judaica that were identified as having been looted from Jews or Jewish communities but were heirless and unclaimed were released from their central collecting points in Germany and given to JRSO, which undertook a systematic program to distribute this cultural legacy among museums, synagogues, and other Jewish organizations worldwide.
Veil Dance was one of roughly 250 paintings, 250 works on paper, and 700 objects of Judaica deposited by JRSO for safekeeping at the Bezalel National Museum, precursor to the Israel Museum, which, following its establishment in 1965, became their custodian. Through the years, the Museum has exhibited and published many of these works, all of which are catalogued and accessible on the Museums website, in order to facilitate their identification and, where possible, restitution to their original owners or their heirs. Veil Dance has been exhibited and published in conjunction with Israel Museum exhibitions throughout the past 45 years.
The restitution of Veil Dance continues the Museums history of responsible restitution, including most recently the restitution of two ancient Roman gold-glass medallions to the heirs of the Dzialynska Collection at Goluchow Castle in Poland in 2008. The Museum reacquired one medallion for its collection, and the second was purchased and placed with the Museum on extended loan. Among other examples in recent years, in 2005, Edgar Degas charcoal drawing Four Nude Female Dancers Resting (ca. 1898) was restituted to the heirs of Jacques Goudstikker, a noted Dutch art dealer who died while fleeing the Nazi invasion of the Netherlands. And in 2000, the Museum returned Camille Pissarros Boulevard Montmarte (1897) to the heir of Holocaust victim Max Silberberg, who placed the painting on long-term loan to the Museum.

Gone Again...
The Island2012 idiot website is still up there, but with no sign of life, just the clock ticking down to Casey's ultimate fail.
And no other news coming from anywhere else.
So, we don't have much to say and won't be posting much until there's anything new or different. If you know anything, let us know. Anybody been by the Serin compound lately?
That's all we know here at FalseCasey HQ, where it's cold and been raining.

False Casey is my hero. Sedate, reasoned inquiry into the torrent of dimwitted fuckbaggery that is the Serin 2.0 Experience.

I heard Casey is working on a new business plan.
Exclusive Corp Inc.
Basically, you become a "member" to the Corp. The member fees are revenue of the Inc. As soon as there are enough members (they will all get a K1- so it will be legit and legal and all that stuff) then there will be periodic distribution (called dividends) to the members/partners. The Board of Directors (BOD) will figure out the dividend distributions. Back of the napkin (BON) calculations show that if only 50 members at 50 bucks a month would allow for decent revenue (also called cash flow). Soon as members start seeing that they are getting a return on their money (trust is built) then they will have further opprotunities to become a "higher level" Corp Member. Sure you have to pay more per month- but the dividend yields will be higher for those members. It starts feeding on itself.
Luckily there will be no credit checks so family can be included. - February 10, 2010 at 10:46 AM

It won't be Casey's ultimate fail until he is in PMITAP for his fraud.

Wow. $146,568.81 in credit card debt. If that's not covering Casey, then Jesus, WTF.
Also, it says that the household size is 3. If there's a high school-aged child, that means Casey is living elsewhere? - February 10, 2010 at 3:41 PM
- Monica said...
Probably not. If Casey is to be considered part of the household for financial purposes, his own financial situation would have to be included. That does not necessarily mean that he is not living there or returning often in reality.

Yeah, methinks Casey's gonna be laying low for quite a while...
Even a shameless grifter like Casey reaches a point of complete embarrassment. Parents bankrupt, possibly on the verge of losing their house; could lose their jobs anytime as well; he himself owes well over $100K to credit cards alone; at least one civil lawsuit against him (US Bank); unemployed after quitting his sweet parking valet gig; two brothers in the military to get away from this house of horrors.
Even Casey can't spin a positive out of all that. :-p - February 11, 2010 at 4:40 PM
- Monica said...
Maybe he will, once the current bankruptcy issue is settled. After all, if he remains in debt, he was in debt before, so there is nothing new. His parents' debt is not his own. Something positive may happen in that respect, though: they save the house, pay the mortgage according to the plan but then they always had a mortgage, and the remaining debt is discharged. That is positive in a way. Meanwhile, if his younger sister graduates, she can get a job or get married, thus bringing more money into the house or no longer being supported by her parents. Of course, Casey too can work but I wouldn't count on it.
- February 11, 2010 at 10:16 PM
- Entertained said...
Well that's certainly their hope of course.
Then again, the judge could rule against their request, the foreclosure could continue and they'd lose the house, AND they'd still owe payments on existing debts (including the amount of the mortgage not recovered through resale).
Of course, if there's a small vocal mob at the hearings, I can't imagine that would help them very much. - February 12, 2010 at 10:22 AM
- Monica said...
If there is no "small mob" or the judge doesn't care, does the plan have any realistic chances of being accepted? Is the presence of the "small mob" likely? Who exactly would that be? And wouldn't the judge just make them shut up?

What about those expensive family excursions to Seattle last summer (ten people or so), and likewise Tahoe this winter? I remember thinking, how the f*ck does Aleksy afford that? Now we know, lol...
- February 12, 2010 at 11:23 AM
- False Casey said...
There is unlikely to be any mob, because there's no forum for one.
There will be a meeting called the 341 meeting, where the creditors get to comment on and/or object to the plan. Typically none of the unsecured creditors show up because they know they're not likely to get anything in any conceivable state of the universe, so it'll be the Serins their lawyer, maybe the mortgage holder and a representative of the trustee. The public is not invited or welcome.
Unless anybody there objects or asks difficult questions, it'll take about 15 minutes and that's pretty much the end of it.
The only way all the rest of this stuff can make its way in is if one of the creditors makes an issue of it and convinces the trustee that there's a real problem. But connecting the parents debts to a possible fraud committed by their son, is going to be a tough sell and I doubt anybody's going to bother.
The good news is that they're still Serins and sometime in the next five year's they'll probably fuck up and be out on their asses. - February 12, 2010 at 11:55 AM

Don't recall any expensive trips last summer but our memory has been getting fuzzy with age. The winter Tahoe trip was to go stay with a relative who has a house there. Total cost to the scammers was probably just the drive up and back.

If you believe that I've got a bridge to sell you. The Serin crime family bought themselves Ferraris, Lambos, helicopters, trips to Europe, Thailand, etc. all with the stolen money and saved enough of it to retire in Uzbkeistan. These people need to be thrown into vats of boiling oil. - February 12, 2010 at 2:59 PM
- Monica said...
That must be pure speculation. Helicopters? I don't think so. You are probably inventing that. If they do have hidden assets, won't that be revealed because of the bankruptcy anyway? And hey, if they do go back where they came from, even with some money, that may well be less expensive to the taxpayers. But there is no indication that they are seriously considering that. If that was their intention, they would have left already without trying to save the house.
- February 12, 2010 at 8:37 PM

Monica, I assume that helicopter post was a troll. Aside from that, none of the Serins have indicated they have enough brains to pull off any kind of successful scam.

But Casey's parents are not scammers. They just overspent like many other people. If Casey wasn't their son, you would't call them scammers, would you?
- February 13, 2010 at 4:42 PM
Casey Serin will triumph in the end. He has all the instincts for business, he just has to learn how to get his fraudulent behavior clicking in the right sequence. Believe me, 2.2 million stolen is chump change compared to some of the corporate scams I've been witness to. So go ahead and continue your lower-class teeth gnashing at how much Casey has stolen but eventually face the facts that he has most definitely pulled it off and it's only just the beginning.
The losers here would cheer even louder when some getto denizen gets busted for selling $20 worth of crack. But selfsame losers don't have much to say when banks or insurance corporations steal hundreds of billion$. What a bunch of innumerate "loosers" here.
Casey Serin is a true American. Brother Steve joined the Army? Now there's a true fuck-up. - February 13, 2010 at 5:43 PM
But Casey's parents are not scammers. They just overspent like many other people. If Casey wasn't their son, you would't call them scammers, would you?
Casey is their son, therefore they are in the public eye more than others. The fact that many others have done the same does not mean they are not scammers, they just have lots of company. Your logic is flawed. - February 14, 2010 at 11:00 AM
- Monica said...
Well, when many people are doing something bad, it is no longer an individual wrongdoing but a systemic problem if not even just a normal part of the system. Of course, such a system is flawed, I'm not saying it's good. But I fail to see how merely overspending is scamming, at least when people do just that without planning from the very beginning to borrow as much as possible and never pay back.
- February 14, 2010 at 11:33 AM
Monica, I think overspending becomes scamming when you run up 15-20 credit cards to the max. People know how much they make, and what they can pay. Certainly the Serins are not alone in this behavior, but just because it's widespread does not make it not scamming. I would think most of the readers and posters of this blog have not fallen victim to this 'systemic problem'. Not competing with the Jones'es goes a long way to keeping yourself out of trouble.
- February 14, 2010 at 3:07 PM
- Monica said...
Relax, banks are scamming, too. It's just that they are doing so legally. They are getting their money back due to high interest rates and various fees. They stole $42.50 in NSF fees even though I had deposited a check a few days earlier. It was deposited at the bank machine and the company that is emptying the machine removed the deposited amount because on the check, "there were 2 names". I did not even understand how that could be but it looks like it's because both my first name and the middle name were used. I usually go by my first name. So while the money had been unfairly deducted from my account, an automatic payment was due and was rejected, which explains the NSF fees. The very next day, my bank branch did add the check amount back and technically, the money from that check paid for its own NSF fees. I was not reimbursed the NSF fees (I asked). And it is precisely because I had paid off in full one of my cards that month that I didn't have too much money in my account. I could have paid less. Now, tell me again why people should be responsible. If anything, I now feel like finding some way to screw the bank.
- February 14, 2010 at 4:54 PM
- Monica said...
By the way, in case you think the onus is on me to make sure the bank has my middle name (I just spoke to the person who was using it on checks, who won't any more), well, why is it so only when I have rights (like the right to cash that check) and not when I have obligations? A few years ago, the government garnished my salary (that debt is now paid). They also checked my credit report. Guess what? They were using my first name and my middle name but misspelling my middle name. So basically, I may be unable to cash checks under the name that appers on my own birth certificate, but I have paid a debt under a name that is not even mine. And I don't think I could refuse to pay my credit card debt because it's under my first name and my legal name is first name plus middle name. It's only to get my rights that I must prove what my full name with the right spelling is. But to pay, I can do it under a misspelt name.
- February 14, 2010 at 5:46 PM
Folks, "Monica" is a troll.
Ignore it. - February 14, 2010 at 8:56 PM
- Monica said...
Sorry if I went a little off topic, but the point is that, considering the fees they charge and the way they can do so on a technicality or for a small mistake while, on the other hand, they are making it so hard for people to access their own money after depositing a check, scamming banks is not as morally reprehensible as it seems. The banks deserve it. And that comes from someone who's actually trying to pay off her debt out of some misguided sense of honour and honesty (if I borrowed, I pay). Casey went too far, but Casey's parents may well have been honest but financially stranded.

I think you are getting a little too excited about the banking system. If you are unsatisfied, you could always put your money in a coffee can or piggybank and bury it someplace. Also, I think you glazed over the overspending issue as if overspending on the scale of the Serin's is done by mistake.
Those f-ckers stole thousands and it will be readily discharged as long as they pay the one bill they should have in the first place.
I don't like to give you a hard time because I am usually a huge fan. But:
Total cost to the scammers was probably just the drive up and back.
I wouldn't underestimate the Serins ability to spend copious amounts of money on bulls-it. Jamba Juices, iPods, designer gas, anything is possible. With all that plasti-cash in their hot little hands I can't imagine them buying gas and food only on their trip.

Casey is probably using Steve's car while Steve is in army basic training. That's why the kidnap van is tucked away on the side. Steve can get his car once he finishes basic and is assigned to tech school.
I don't think Steve is gone yet. The mustangs all have dealer plates and change every so often. There had been a white one, but the most recent one was grey. In between mustangs, there is a white pickup with normal plates parked in the same spot.
KC's van didn't move last weekend, but I think the family sedan might have been gone for a couple of days. - February 17, 2010 at 4:04 PM
Actually Casey Konstantin Serin hasn't got away with it.
He has nothing to show for the last 5 years of his life. Nothing positive that is. He has no work experience or skills. His career prospects are nil.
His credit is ruined for the next 10 years. He won't be able to borrow income.
And business is not an option because murseboi brings nothing to the table (but is too stupid to realise it) and the only people to 'do business' with him are fellow scammers.
So he can expect to spend the next 10 years (at least) as a beggar or minimum wage pleb. His fraud spree has essentially cost him 15 years of his life. - February 24, 2010 at 7:29 PM

Jamba adds hot drinks, at-home smoothies
San Francisco Business Times - 3-2-10
Jamba Juice is mixing up new products for a turnaround.
The Emeryville-based smoothie maker has spent the past year working to become more than a smoothie spot, and to be an all-day destination. At the same time, it's expanding its grocery-based offerings.
These moves are part of the company's efforts to bolster sales and broaden its business base.
Jamba Inc. (NASDAQ: JMBA) and the Inventure Group Inc. plan to introduce three flavors of make-at-home smoothies, which will ship to retailers this month. The initiative will start in the Western U.S., and the product will cost between $2.00 and $3.29 for a two-serving, eight-ounce package. - March 3, 2010 at 3:16 PM

Usher has moved forward with the custody case against Tameka Foster despite reports that he called it quits. He actually just postponed the hearing.
Tameka Foster's lawyer has filed new documents in the couple's bitter child custody war … slamming Usher … who asked the court to delay the next hearing in light of the death of Tameka's son, Kile, who was killed in a jet ski accident.
Usher didn't care about his ex-wife's dead son … blew off his funeral … and is only PRETENDING to be affected by the tragedy to court sympathy from the media and his fans … this according to the singer's ex-wife.
In his request, Usher claims he's worried the hearing would cause "unnecessary stress and strain" for both himself, Tameka and their two minor children "in the immediate wake of this tragedy."
Usher also claims Tameka would get an unfair advantage in the hearing because the court would not want to rule against a woman who is still grieving the death of her son. Usher fears he could lose custody of the children and believes it would be unfair to him.
But Tameka claims Usher is full of crap … and in docs of her own, insists U's claims of suffering "stress and strain" are "BOGUS."
In fact, Tameka claims Usher didn't care about her son at all in his final days — even though Usher regarded him as a son back when they were married.
"[Usher] visited Kile in the hospital only once" during his 15 days on life support … Tameka claims.
She also claims she had begged Usher to tweet a message about her son, "Please pray for Kile" … but he refused. Instead, Tameka claims, Usher's next tweet was a photo of his own breakfast with the caption, "Breakfast of Champions."
Breakfast of champions instagr.am/p/Nd58YMyic8/
— Usher Raymond IV (@UsherRaymondIV) July 24, 2012
WOW.. I guess like they say.. Life goes on.. Out of respect I'm going to keep it light, but if Usher were to stop pursuing the matter Tameka would still cause him problems.. I honestly think Tameka was hoping that Kile's death would lure Usher back into her lair. Usher isn't falling for it.

A memorandum dated Sept. 11, 2012, lists the Fiscal Year 2014 Board Operating Budget Interests. Among the Top 10 Priorities, I was impressed to note that the second item was this:
"Meet the needs of each individual child, including their health and social and emotional well-being"
This is exciting because it opens the door for Montgomery County's administration to consider changing the school start time to one that better reflects adolescent and teen sleep needs. The evidence that a 5:30 a.m. wake-up call for teenagers is dangerously out of sync with their sleep needs is more than clear. Parents, sleep scientists, educators, health-care providers and mental-health experts are calling for this change and we need to look seriously at the long and short-term impact on our kids' health.
Other issues like after-school jobs, bus schedules, sports practices can be accommodated and have been successfully adjusted in many other school districts. A very recent study takes a careful look at five years of data from the change to a later start time in Edina and Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is not an impossible challenge.
It is impossible to justify causing harm to a child's health and social and emotional well-being through inaction.
I'm inspired by the local school board and its willingness to make this a priority. The document further states: "These top 10 interests are to guide the Superintendent of Montgomery County Public Schools in the development of his Fiscal Year 2014 Operating Budget Recommendation."
Good luck to Superintendent Joshua Starr - we'll be watching and hoping that a healthy school start time is soon part of the plan for Montgomery County.

We are dedicated to increasing public awareness about the relationship between sleep and school hours and to ensuring school start times compatible with health, safety, education, and equity.

The board is very wise to prioritize the well-being of its students. Acknowledging that early high school start times impact health, safety, and academics is a good place to start. Adolescent sleep deprivation has become so pervasive in the United States that sleep researchers and other experts frequently refer to the problem as "epidemic". In many communities, early start times intensify the problem. In fact, the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services recently identified sufficient sleep for students in grades 9-12 as a nationwide health improvement priority by including it as an objective in Healthy People 2020. The new objective is based on data generated by the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System which monitors health-risk behaviors that contribute to the leading causes of death and disability among youth and adults.

I agree 100%. Also the Elementary students could start at the earlier hours. So many working parents would love to see their wee ones off and still get to work in DC on time! For adolescent age kids parents are comfortable letting them get to the bus in their bing on their own.

KG and Leah, joining us at Start School Later would be a great step.
We've successfully helped the Seattle School district fight a crazy change to an even earlier hour by providing them with all the data they needed to make the case to their school board. We have chapters in several counties and would love to support the creation of a group in Montgomery. This county leads others in Maryland education in so many ways, maybe leading the charge to make this critical change for the sake of our kids can be next. There's a facebook page started by a high school student that you could join and energize the dialogue: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Move-Montgomery-County-High-School-Start-time-to-830-am-or-later/221125037917648 and also check out http://www.facebook.com/#!/StartSchoolLater for our page - always current.
Start School Later been working hard at this for a year now - and we're ready to grow. We need help to try and reach all of the government agencies, elected officials and members of the community that we've determined are going to be crucial in moving this initiative forward.
Thanks for your comments!

posted 25 May 2010 in Volume 13 Issue 7
Where two worlds collide
Jan Wyllie introduces the first of a two-part series on information organisation with comment on the relationship between KM 2.0 and social media
Today, the frontier of human productive capacity is the power of extended collaboration the ability to work together beyond the scope of small groups using the new tools of collaboration. The Moment Social Media Became Serious Business, Harvard Business Review, Jan 19, 2010
Creative confusion: A world in flux
Even after all these years I suspect that, like myself, many people still have lots of questions to ask about what Web 2.0, Enterprise 2.0 and, of course, KM 2.0 are and what the 2.0 means. No doubt the terms are also afflicted by the universal curse faced by knowledge managers, which is that they are liable to mean different things to different people.
Fortunately, doubt and uncertainty are essential parts of the new world of knowledge, which is emerging through the combination of new virtual connection technologies and new, less ideological ways of thinking.
There are two characteristics of KM 2.0 and social media the profile of which are pretty clear:
1) Knowledge is no longer conceived as locked away in documents with the only key being retrospective retrieval. It comes from a non-stop multimedia flow, where the important nuggets need separating from the waste in real time. If you have to search for it, then it is liable to be already too late; and
2) Professional knowledge cannons are complemented (or is it swamped?) by user generated content and knowledge flows.
Collective technologies: Towards collaborative intelligence
There is also no doubt that a new generation of online software has been crucial in what is widely perceived as a step change in the way people relate to each other.
The first wave (2.0) was software designed to help people to manage and co-author documents, share files and organise virtual meetings. The second wave (about 2.3) enables users to create their own knowledge flows from both materials of their own making (blogs) and of bookmarked items (with or without comments). Twitter is a tool enabling both functions.
Unfortunately, the user-centred nature of 2.0 technologies has lead inevitably to a massive waste of resources, as meaning and pertinence is drowned out by the noise and sabotaged by amateurish mistakes. Its a bit like the first days of desktop publishing (DTP) in information management terms. What happened then was that the mass of DTPers learned the basics from professionals and standards improved markedly.
The same could happen in KM 2.0 and social media. People are already talking about professional citizen journalists. Daniel Durrant writes on Amplify: An uncomfortable rift may arise between professionally defined Journalists and noise making users unless we create systems that work for the both camps. A little bit of noise is fine, but music is better. Journalists and citizens are capable of working together to enhance the quality of online media. (http://openintelligence.amplify.com/2010/04/02/the-next-challenge-adding-value-to-social-media/#comments).
The same could be said for the rift between knowledge professionals and knowledge users, who seem to steadfastly refuse to take on board even the most basic KM practices. Just for starters, I would bet that over 95 per cent of
Here, I must confess that after years working as a journalist and a content analyst, I had never heard of Boolean algebra until I met Tony Kent about 30 years ago. Using his <<Strix>> text database software he quietly blew my mind with the amazing power of Boolean search strategies, both on full text and structured metadata. In the years that we collaborated, one job I had was teaching secretarial staff to use <<Strix>>, part of which, was blowing their minds with basic Boolean operators used to build up sets which could then be re-combined again using Boolean operators. In most cases, intelligent people, such as secretaries, can learn to use Boolean algebra quite effectively within about an hour or two. One of the great things about working this way is that it really makes people *think* about what they are looking for
Tony Kent used to be very dismissive of relevance ranking algorithms compared with the precision recall of an intelligent Boolean query. How much knowledge have people lost by casting their search fate to the wind of Google relevance algorithms, for the sake of an hours teaching?
The next article, Part 2 (Algorithmic culture: The power of structure; Spirit of enquiry: Open questioning) will be about ways to bridge the chasm between users and professionals. As with any relationship, both parties will need to learn from each other.

This post may be a bit like the weather I've been experiencing over here lately–a whirlwind. There has been consistent snow for the past two weeks and there is more to come! Not only has it been snowing constantly but it's also been super windy. But I haven't let the weather stop me from adventuring and atleast there's been plenty of sun to help keep my mood up. Sophia recently asked what we appreciate from nature. Well, the sun is something I wholeheartedly love. It brings up my spirits and I can't help but feel better on sunny days.
I decided to try out another one of the chocolate bars the folks at Newman's Own Organics sent me. I had only tried their dark chocolates and I wanted to change it up a bit with some milkiness. Deliciously creamy and made me feel like a kid again. Oftentimes milk chocolates get overwhelmed with all the other ingredients, but I like how you can still taste the chocolate in this bar. I feel like milk chocolate is often forgotten about nowadays. But I think dark, milk, and white chocolates all deserve a little love.
I spread Sunland's caramel peanut butter on one slice and the other had butter and the berry jam Holly sent me awhile ago. I also had a bowl of yogurt + a minneola, pomegranate arils, and granola.
After some hang out time with my dad I went over to a friend's house. I got to try a most delicious vegetable lasagna recipe she made up + garlic bread (ON HOMEMADE BREAD)! Afterwards we headed to one of the bars around here that reminds me of a tavern.
The place is called Urban Farmhouse Market & Cafe and it's really neat because you can even go grocery shopping in there. They sell things like organic milk, cake mixes, eggs, quinoa pasta, and granola made by a local Richmonder. We definitely plan on going back for lunch! It also seemed like a really nice place to study and have a nice change of environment.
I met up with Brittany at a local cellar for some wine and chocolate sampling. I haven't seen her in ages and she's just as radiant even in the winter! We both brought our dogs, but Matilda was being a brat to adorable little Olive, and Isaac had to bring her back home. I hope they get along next time they meet!
Friday turned out to be an up and down and up day. I got really upset at one point but before totally giving into it I knew I had to do something to help me calm down. I have worked so hard to not succumb to things that in the end are not good for me. I reached out, communicated my feelings, and ended up rising above the stress. I did what I knew would be best for me. So glad I wasn't incredibly stubborn and didn't give in. Now I plan on going out with some friends and dancing my worries away! Do any of you find it hard to let things go out of stubbornness?
This weekend there's going to be tons of love in the air. Who knows what's in store!!! Either way, I hope you all enjoy it whether you're single or taken!

Notes and Communications: Alma's Use of State in the Book of Mormon: Evidence of Multiple Authorship
Philip A. Allred
Joseph Smith claimed the Book of Mormon was a product of multiple ancient authors. Recent studies of the words and phrases used by the book's various writers have provided evidence of this claim.1 The following notes on how the word state2 is employed in the Book of Mormon suggest that Alma2 can be singled out as a distinct author within the record.
Statistical Significance
Eleven individuals in the Book of Mormon used the word state.3 Only Alma used the word to any degree of potential statistical significance.4 However, even though an author's use of a word might potentially qualify for statistical significance, any statistical model that could be employed to determine such significance would necessarily assume normal or similar topic distribution within the Book of Mormon. Because the different writers treated diverse subjects, there is no statistical way to compare the probability of the different authors' use of state.5 Therefore, it is nearly impossible to prove objectively that an author's word usage is statistically significant on the basis of word frequency alone.
Aside from the challenges of this statistical qualification, it is still possible to see Alma as a distinct author in the Book of Mormon. This can be done by examining his use of state in contrast with other writers on three fronts: unusual concentrations of the word, resumptive rewording with state, and shared topic comparison.
Unusual Concentrations of the Word State
All but two of the eleven writers who used state did so infrequently and sporadically. In contrast, the recorded writings of Alma, and in one case, Lehi, contain passages that display unusual concentrations of the word state. For example, Lehi uses the word four times in three verses when describing Adam and Eve's paradisiacal existence in 2 Nephi 2:21–23. A far more impressive concentration of state appears in Alma 40, where Alma is teaching Corianton about the postmortal existence.
Now, concerning the state of the soul between death and resurrection. . . .
. . . the spirits of those who are righteous are received into a state of happiness, which is called paradise, a state of rest, a state of peace. . . .
Now this is the state of the souls of the wicked, yea, in darkness, and a state of awful, fearful looking for the fiery indignation of the wrath of God upon them; thus they remain in this state, as well as the righteous in paradise, until the time of their resurrection.
Now, there are some that have understood that this state of happiness and this state of misery of the soul, before the resurrection, was a first resurrection. (Alma 40:11–12, 14–15)
Here in just five verses Alma employs the word ten times. Even more remarkable is the concentration in chapter 41 where in just two verses Alma uses state six times.
And now, my son, all men that are in a state of nature, or I would say, in a carnal state, are in the gall of bitterness and in the bonds of iniquity; they are without God in the world, and they have gone contrary to the nature of God; therefore, they are in a state contrary to the nature of happiness.
And now behold, is the meaning of the word restoration to take a thing of a natural state and place it in an unnatural state, or to place it in a state opposite to its nature? (Alma 41:11–12)
In chapter 42 Alma clusters his use of state again where it occurs six times in verses 10–13. In a work which claims to be written by multiple authors it certainly is consistent to find one of these authors displaying an unusual usage of a particular word when the other writers do not.6
Resumptive7 Rewording with State
In several instances Alma displays a tendency to reword with state. For example, in discussing the preparatory nature of mortal existence after the fall, Alma writes, "And thus we see, that there was a time granted unto man to repent, yea, a probationary time, a time to repent and serve God" (Alma 42:4). Resuming this thought six verses later, Alma renames this as a probationary state—"it became a state for them to prepare; it became a preparatory state" (Alma 42:10). Again three verses later he repeats this rewording with "Therefore, according to justice, the plan of redemption could not be brought about, only on conditions of repentance of men in the probationary state, yea, this preparatory state" (Alma 42:13).
Another example of Alma's tendency to reword with state is found approximately one hundred pages earlier. While visiting Gideon, Alma hoped to "find that ye were not in the awful dilemma that our brethren were in at Zarahemla" (Alma 7:3). Three verses later Alma defines the dilemma when he resumes the thought with, "I trust that ye are not in a state of so much unbelief as were your brethren" (Alma 7:6). After discoursing about the atonement he returns again to this topic and combines the two earlier phrases. "For as I said unto you from the beginning, that I had much desire that ye were not in the state of dilemma like your brethren, even so I have found that my desires have been gratified" (Alma 7:18).8 No other author in the Book of Mormon rewords with state—in this Alma stands completely unique.
When only one writer displays this kind of preference for a particular term when restating, especially a nonessential word like state, the reasonable reaction is to believe that this writer is distinct within the larger work authored by other individuals.
Shared Topic Comparison
Because it is reasonable to expect that any given topic will generate some common language to describe it, it comes as no surprise that each of the four writers who addressed agency—Lehi, Jacob, Alma, and Samuel—all used some form of the words act and choose.9 Yet when each passage is further analyzed, Alma's use of state again distinguishes him from other Book of Mormon writers.
Wherefore, he gave commandments unto men, they having first transgressed the first commandments as to things which were temporal, and becoming as Gods, knowing good from evil, placing themselves in a state to act, or being placed in a state to act according to their wills and pleasures. . . .
. . . in the first place being left to choose good or evil; therefore they having chosen good, and exercising exceedingly great faith, are called with a holy calling. (Alma 12:31; 13:3)
It is significant to note that both Lehi and Jacob used state elsewhere in their writings, so their capacity to have done so in passages relating to agency is not in question.10 Further, the presence of state is not the only difference between Alma and the others. Lehi, Jacob, and Samuel each include references to the word free when discussing agency.11 Alma does not.
Of tangential interest, there is marked contrast between Alma and Joseph Smith when their writings about agency are compared.12 In Doctrine and Covenants 93:30–31, Joseph revealed that "All truth is independent in that sphere in which God has placed it, to act for itself, as all intelligence also; otherwise there is no existence. Behold, here is the agency of man." In comparison with Alma's passage in Alma 12:31, Joseph Smith writes about a sphere in which agency exists, while Alma writes of a state of agency; their meanings are the same, but the language is decidedly different. Further, Alma only describes the principle, while Joseph actually names it as agency. In fact, every major passage concerning the agency of man in the Doctrine and Covenants is marked with the words agency, agent, or agents.13 In direct distinction, the Book of Mormon does not have a single reference to these words. This suggests that the use of state in the Book of Mormon was a feature of the original text and not simply introduced by Joseph Smith.
Certainly Alma's distinction from his Book of Mormon counterparts is clear in the context of agency. He not only displays his preference for state uniquely when addressing this topic, but he also elected not to use a key word that the other three authors employed.
1. E.g., John W. Welch et al., "Words and Phrases," in Reexploring the Book of Mormon, ed. John W. Welch (Salt Lake City: Deseret Book and FARMS, 1992), 282–85; Roger R. Keller, "Mormon and Moroni as Authors and Abridgers," in ibid., 269–71; John L. Hilton, "Wordprints and the Book of Mormon," in ibid., 221–26; and John W. Welch, "Three Accounts of Alma's Conversion," in ibid., 150–53.
2. "The condition of a person or thing, as with respect to circumstances or attributes," Webster's Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language (1989), s.v. "state."
3. Abinadi, Alma2, Amulek, Benjamin, Jacob, Lehi, the Lord, Mormon, Moroni, Nephi, and an angelic visitor to Nephi all employed the word state; cf. Eldin Ricks, Eldin Ricks's Thorough Concordance of the LDS Standard Works (Provo, UT: FARMS, 1995), 691–92.
4. An author must display at least one use of the word per one-thousand total words. Alma is the only author whose use of state qualifies in this preliminary way (Alma used state 35 times in 19,137 total words, which equals nearly two instances per 1,000 words). The idea for this comparative figure is drawn from Roger R. Keller's article entitled "Law and Commandments in the Book of Mormon" (Provo, UT: FARMS, 1991). The full methodology is spelled out in a forthcoming book by Keller entitled Author Uniqueness within the Book of Mormon: An Aid to Interpretation.
5. For instance, even though Alma used state an unusual number of times in Alma 40:12–15, he is addressing the topic of the postmortal spirit world, which is unique to him in the Book of Mormon. Hence, no statistical comparison can be made between Alma and the other writers in this case. I am indebted to Dr. John L. Hilton, BYU, for explaining these critical points on statistical significance.
6. Further evidence for this argument is found in the presence of another concentration of state approximately ninety pages earlier in Alma 12. Here again Alma clusters his use of the word nine times starting in verse 12. As John W. Welch has elsewhere noted, even though Alma's words are found scattered among other's writings over nearly one-fifth of the Book of Mormon, his words bear "the unmistakable imprints of a single distinctive person," in Reexploring the Book of Mormon, 153. For instance, both Ammon and Amulek's words appear between Alma 12 and Alma 42—both employed state, but neither displays any concentration of the word; in fact, they only expressed their message with state on one occasion each; see Alma 26:17 and 34:35 respectively. It is also significant to note that in Alma's initial conversion account in Mosiah 27 he used state twice (Mosiah 27:25).
7. This is not to be equated with epanaleptic repetition, which is specifically employed for digressions within a single sentence; see Larry G. Childs, "Epanalepsis in the Book of Mormon" (Provo, UT: FARMS, 1986).
8. Another rewording with state (though not necessarily resumptive), occurs in Alma 41:11—Alma writes that all men "have gone contrary to the nature of God; therefore, they are in a state contrary to the nature of happiness."
9. 2 Nephi 2:26–27; 10:23; Alma 12:31; 13:3; and Helaman 14:30–31.
10. See 2 Nephi 2:21–23 and 9:27 respectively.
11. 2 Nephi 2:26–27 (three times); 2 Nephi 10:23; and Helaman 14:30 (two times).
12. Comparison between the four major works that Joseph Smith brought forth further suggest multiple authorship of the Book of Mormon. While the Book of Mormon contains the term seventy-seven times (Ricks, Thorough Concordance, 691–92), the books of Abraham and Moses, as well as the entire Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible lack even a single use of state. Of interest also, the Doctrine and Covenants contains the word only three times (71:1; 93:38; and 130:9) and the Joseph Smith History employs the word only once (Joseph Smith—History 1:29). In addition, Joseph Smith's wording in Joseph Smith—History 1:29—in which he synonymously couples state with standing—is interesting because the word standing only appears twice in the Book of Mormon and neither time with state; see Mosiah 4:11 and Alma 13:5.
13. See Doctrine and Covenants 29:35–39; 58:27–28; 93:30–31; and 101:78. Moses 4:3 and 7:32 also contain references to agency and Moses 6:56 refers to agents.

This is going to be me giving as good a rundown as I can on our buddy Vyros. In these posts I'm going to discuss some general stuff about him most people already know (just in case some don't or a new guy is reading), then I'm going to delve into nitty gritty stuff I've gleaned from experience. Obviously, that means a lot of this is going to be my opinion, even if I'm not putting IMHO at the end of, like, everything. I think this is beneficial enough for the Retribution forum goers, as it's sometimes helpful to see how someone is doing it as opposed to cobbling it all together from the options you've been given. Heh, especially with Vyros.
If you're new to the faction, I first suggest you read the Vyros article written by thecsharion/hausdorff space. When I first set out to solve the mysteries of Vyros, it was that article that gave me the most guidance. I am pretty sure it's because the author did a good job of illustrating the point that Vyros has a good number of aspects, that some of them can seem to pull his wants/needs in opposite directions, and that deciding what you're comfortable with in making this balance is key to playing Vyros well. A lot of this is going to be the decisions I made based on that advice and the games I've played.
If, however, you've been there already, take a seat. Or roll up your sleeves. Either or. I'm not demanding. What? Don't look at me like that!
Dawnlord Vyros
The quick and dirty
Vyros is a cool guy. He's a politician. A politician who murders dragons with giant white space robots. If you'll open your textbooks to page 64, you'll notice Vyros' stats. We'll be discussing those and other things shortly. If you'll look at page 65, you'll notice Vyros standing in front of a wall of fire, knights in tow, gritting his teeth and probably getting ready to murder the audacious bastard taking his picture. This is how Vyros rolls, and it's important to wrap your head around it. Vyros takes lives.
All that being said, Vyros is one of six in a stable of awesome Casters. Still, most of the hyperbole in this article is going to be aimed at making Vyros sound super awesome. I think that only makes sense, yeah?
Being a higher up in the knightly order of the Dawnguard, Vyros has stats you'd expect. He's a melee boss. Complimentary defenses adding up to 32, good MAT, and CMD as good as it gets. He's kinda slow and liable to shoot his own foot off when handling a gun, but when it's all said and done, he wins sword fights. And that's what you want out of him. Overall, his stats say "If you want me to lead men into suicide missions and beat people up, I will, because I'm really good at it."
His FOCUS stat is nothing special either way. He can pull off seven melee attacks due to his FOCUS. But Vyros still has some very special feelings about the use of focus, which will be covered later.
Vyros seems to personally dislike the use of guns, so he only keeps one weapon on him, his sword Justicar. I have no idea how to pronounce its name. There's precedent sort of with other words, I guess, so it's probably 'justice arr' ish.
Justicar is an average sword for someone of Vyros' station. POW 7, magic, and reach. No fancy tricks. Doesn't turn people into clouds of fire when you kill them, nor does it steal their souls or anything cool like that. Just POW 7, magic, and reach. Adding to his STR of 7, he comes out with a P+S of 14. Combine that with his MAT, and you get a nicely threatening Caster. With just these stats he's incapable of killing a great many (heavy) things, but he threatens light Jacks reasonably enough, and can stare your average Caster down with the threat of a game ending counter assault if they end close enough to him. That means he'll threaten pretty much all infantry and solos and the like while he's at it. Though, in an attempt not to mislead, I find Vyros rarely finds himself hunting any particular solo or trooper model. Targets of opportunity notwithstanding.
Vyros finds himself in his special rules here. The foundation for these so far is that he is a competent melee guy with solid defenses, which is a groovy place to be.
He's got two abilities, Birds Eye and Flank [Faction Warjack].
Vyros likes birds. He names his groups after bird parts and has his own personal bird, Jyren, join him in battle and... well pretty much screw the enemy over pretty hard. Since Jyren is flying all over the battlefield making squawky reports, Vyros and all his Myrmidons are allowed to ignore guys when declaring attack targets, along with forests and clouds. And they extend their front arcs to 360 because why not?
Since his battlegroup's LOS cannot be screened by troops, clouds or forests, Vyros and company threaten many more things than usual. Unit attachments, clutch solos, Casters, and other sensitive things have to double their efforts to stay safe from Vyros' deadly guns and spells.
With circular front arcs, you also get some wacky results. You lose some of your ability to threaten areas with free strikes as now everywhere within 2" of your phoenix is free game for the enemy, as long as they don't leave it. This will cause a bit more strain on you to keep track of, but generally the 360 front arc is a boon. People can never deny you a charge with Telekinesis. People can never gain backstrikes on you (eat it, Croe). You gain some charge flexibility as well. Sometimes after a charge, facing your target directly will put other ancillary attack targets in your back arc. Not with Jyren constantly reminding you in his birdy way that there are guys behind you.
His other ability is the Flank. This means if an enemy is within melee range of one of your jacks (no matter which way the jack is facing!), Vyros will gain increased attack bonuses vs that enemy. This builds upon his solid melee foundation to make him really damn scary. At POW 14, 3 dice, he hits harder than a Sentinel, about as hard as a hard hitting jack, and definitely hard enough to kill almost anything. His accuracy, which was already good, gets a boost too, making hitting Caine not so hard anymore. A flurry of attacks from Vyros, not boosted at all either way, is something your opponents will strive to avoid if they know what they're doing. So you'll need to learn how to chase the cowards down and how to get a Jack on top of them. Our speed 6 Jacks make that second part pretty easy at least.
The abilities basically say Vyros likes his battlegroup so much that he'll give them the equivalent of a 3 cost, non-upkeep spell for free each turn, even under Mage Blight, and that his true melee potential lies within the positioning of his Jacks. And it's devastating.

Dean's List
To qualify for this recognition, undergraduate students must earn a 3.50 minimum grade point average (the grade of S is not counted) on 12 or more semester hours completed during the semester. Students who earn a grade of I (incomplete), D, F, or U, during the semester are excluded from consideration for the Dean's List.
Readmission from Academic Suspension
Readmission from Academic Suspension is neither automatic nor guaranteed. NSM majors on academic suspension must be readmitted through the Office of the Dean prior to enrolling in classes. The readmission from suspension policy and application forms are available in the Office of the Dean.
- The readmission period usually terminates one full week before classes begin.
- Students classified as Natural Sciences and Mathematics-Unspecified will not be readmitted from academic suspension through NSM.
- NSM majors receiving a second suspension should not expect to be readmitted through NSM.
- No student with a major outside of NSM will be readmitted from academic suspension through NSM.
- Students subject to suspension based upon course work 10 or more years old should consider the Academic Fresh Start Program.
Grievance Procedures
A multilevel procedure of redress of grievance concerning academic matters is available to undergraduate students of the College.
Every effort shall be made by the student, faculty, and department chair to resolve the grievance within the department structure. If step one does not resolve the grievance, the student may go to step two.
- Petition the dean or his/her designate first by informal discussion and then, if necessary, by filing a formal written complaint detailing specifics of the complaint. If the dean proposes a solution it shall be binding on the department, but not on the student. If the student does not find the dean's proposal acceptable, the student may, within fifteen calendar days of the receipt of the dean's decision, go to step three.
- Request that the case be heard by the NSM Academic Grievance Subcommittee, a three-member faculty panel chosen from the College Curriculum Committee.
Grade Changes
Questions regarding grades in NSM courses must be resolved within the semester following the posting of the grade. Grade changes are approved only for correction of errors in computing the grade .
Grades of I (Incomplete) must be resolved within one year of the posting of the grade or will be changed automatically to F. Incomplete grades must be resolved with the instructor awarding the grade. Incomplete grades cannot be resolved by re-registering for the course in question.
Transfer Credit
Questions concerning transfer credit are resolved by the petition process. This process originates in the department of the major, and the petitions are routed to the relevant department and dean's offices.
Students wishing to enroll in Special Problems courses (xx98) must seek approval in advance by the petition process. Credit for Special Problems courses is contingent upon approval of a petition detailing the project and method of evaluation. Generally, Special Problems courses are limited to S/U (satisfactory/ unsatisfactory) grading.
Senior Thesis; Senior Research Project
Students wishing to complete either the Senior Thesis (3399-4399) or Senior Research Project (3396-4396) must seek approval in advance by the petition process. Credit for these courses is contingent upon approval of a petition detailing the project and method of evaluation.
Degree Plans
Students are responsible for all requirements of the catalog under which they are graduating. Requests for a degree plan should be made in the department of the major as soon as the student has completed 60 semester hours. Students with a major in NSM applying for graduation without an official degree plan will be disapproved.
Filing to Graduate
To be a degree candidate, students must submit an application for graduation by the stated deadline in the class listings. Candidates for graduation, previously disapproved, must reapply .
Degrees are not awarded automatically upon completion of the scholastic requirements. Successful graduation candidates can anticipate the posting of the degree approximately six weeks after the closing date of the semester allowing for final audit procedures.
NSM strictly adheres to the University Calendar, e.g. admission and registration deadlines, drop dates, application for graduation, etc. Exceptions are considered only for documented, extenuating, nonacademic circumstances.
The college offers both the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in all departments. Entry into any graduate program requires a bachelor's degree from a recognized institution and an adequate background in the subject to be studied.
Through reciprocal agreements, graduate students at certain components of the University of Texas System, Rice University, and Baylor College of Medicine may take courses for credit at the University of Houston. University of Houston graduate students may take courses for credit at any of these three institutions. Charges for registration and tuition are made by the parent institution.
For more information on graduate and professional programs and a listing of courses, refer to the Office of the Dean, the appropriate department, or the Graduate and Professional Studies catalog.
The college offers preprofessional training for students planning to study dentistry, medicine, medical technology, nursing, physical therapy, veterinary
medicine, and other health professions. Students are expected to acquaint themselves with the specific requirements of the professional schools they wish
to enter. Health professions advisors in the Academic Advising Center, 320 Student Service Center, and department academic advisors are available to help students obtain the greatest possible benefit from preprofessional training.

text: That's a good idea VV - As the bossman, as well as a player, I would like this ability, but it might be a bit too much effort for the reward (and relies on a lot of people spending a fair bit of time to set up). What would be great (and I don't know if this is possible) would be to see if we could export/copypasta our current team from bbmanager and maybe keep that in the sheet or in a folder somewhere? That way there'd be minimal filling in to do, and it would be easy to keep up to date. It does rely on everyone using bbmanager though, and I don't want the barrier to entry for new teams to get too high :-).
