By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The Government is trying to help the economy by offering federal debt relief assistance in the form of government grants. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Ever since the current financial meltdown began in 2007, many people have experienced financial difficulties that have included unaffordable mortgage payments, decreased income, or even unemployment. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants A government grant is free money that the federal and sometimes state governments give away to those people who are considered low-income or meet certain eligibility requirements to receive the funds. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants A lot of people believe that the government will come up with an answer to a problem just when we need it the most. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants There are billions of different uses for the internet, and most of them have changed the world completely. One of these things is the ability to get a government grant via an online application. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants During this rough economy felt around the world, many consumers are seeking ways to relieve crippling debt. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The recent economic conditions have caused havoc on many individuals (particularly middle class people) and there personal financial situations. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Have credit cards, mortgage, personal loans, car payments or business liabilities swamped you to the point of considering bankruptcy? By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants When the Democrats took over the Whitehouse and senate back in 2009 they made a promise to change the financial system. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants In recent years, the poor economy has led many people to have to rely on the use of credit cards and other forms of unsecured credit. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants In the past, if a person had large amounts of unsecured money owed to multiple lenders it was up to them to find a solution for paying the money back. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Many people are experiencing financial hardship due to the economic situation. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The nation's debtors have become desperate for answers to their financial woes. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants President Obama has set aside $787 billion dollars for federal assistance for quick debt relief. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The current slow economy has affected most people in one way or another. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants US citizens have a bigger impact on the economy than most people might think. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants For debt relief, free government aid and loans are good options to look into even though they are not as popular as consolidation loans. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Everybody knows about the various tax breaks and cuts that occurred as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Obama's stimulus package) of 2008. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants After President Obama took office, one of the first things he did is to set up several debt relief government programs. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Right after Barack Obama became the President of the United States, he started a national debt relief government grants program. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants There are very many types of debts consumers find themselves in for distinct reasons. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The downturn of the economy over the past decade has left many families and businesses in the financial red. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Debt relief has been around since ancient times but at the time it was referred to as debt forgiveness. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants While many people still use the traditional methods of repaying their creditors, there now are more options available that can be even more beneficial. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The truth is that many people in the world today are carrying around thousands of dollars worth of credit card debt. Some of these individuals can make payments and keep their credit rating fairly high. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants There are a number of ways that you could work to get rid of your debts. Usually no one way is right for everyone, however the one exception to this rule might have to be the government grant. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants It is not uncommon for a person to fall behind on their bills and find that they really need assistance immediately to secure their financial future. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants We all know how difficult the recent years have been for families. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The federal government does a great deal more for the average American citizen than simply collect taxes and restrict their constitutional freedoms. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Ever since the financial and economic meltdown first took place in early 2007, many have lost their jobs and experienced other financial setbacks that have caused them to rely on credit cards and build an unaffordable level of outstanding debt. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Like many individuals, your debt may have grown way beyond your income. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Hard economic times call for creative measures. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants There are very many grant opportunities the government has to offer the American citizen in different industries. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants There are many avenues for getting a government grant for debt relief but you must also be aware of the scams on the Internet as well. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants If you are one of the millions of people struggling to pay off large amounts of money owed to credit card companies, there is a good chance you are overlooking one of the best ways to eliminate this problem. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants In the eyes of many people the government doesn't do nearly enough to help the average citizen. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants American debt is skyrocketing and many people are looking for relief. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants The ever present specter of debt and financial solvency issues is a constant aspect of many people's lives. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants If you are interested in applying for one of the many government grants that have been made available in recent years, you will have to find one that you are likely to qualify for. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Though often overlooked, debt relief grants are real and have been used by many people. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Acquiring relief for an individual's many debts and financial obligations is something that a lot of people are seeking. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants Free money is available from the government in the form of debt relief government grants, and getting it is as easy as filling out an application online. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants President Obama has dedicated billions of dollars to the government grants for debt relief. By DebtReliefGovernmentGrants While there is no "silver" bullet available to eliminate all of the money you owe to creditors, the government has started to provide grants to eligible individuals.

As a result, FirstEnergy said a typical Mon Power and Potomac Edison residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity a month would see their current $95.13 monthly bill decrease $1.42 to $93.71.
The company has also made several commitments as part of the settlement agreement. Those include:
- Hiring an additional 50 employees in West Virginia.
- Providing $2.3 million worth of Economic Stability Credits to large commercial and industrial customers over the next two years
- Making contributions of $500,000 over the next five years to three separate initiatives: The Dollar Energy fund, which helps low-income residents pay their bills; the West Virginia Office of Economic Opportunity's program to help residential customers weatherize their homes and to the Governor's West Virginia Kids First Initiative to support energy efficiency initiatives in public schools.
The company will also be required to come up with a plan to boost energy efficiency over the next five years.
The proposed settlement was reached between the company and PSC staff, the Consumer Advocate Division, West Virginia Energy Users Group, Utilities Workers Union of America, Sierra Club, West Virginia Coal Association and several AFL-CIO affiliate organizations.
The West Virginia Citizen Action Group opposes the proposal, according to a footnote in the settlement agreement.
Public Service commissioners will have to review the proposal before giving it their blessing. That decision could be made in the coming weeks.

Chase stories Disciplines > Storytelling > Plots > Classic story types > Chase stories Description | Example | Discussion | See also DescriptionA person gets chased. They nearly get caught many times. Sometimes there is turn-taking as the chased becomes the chaser for a while. Car chases are typified by high speeds, sliding around corners, leaping over things, crashing into things and assorted other stunts. Variants include pursuits using boats, planes and other high-speed and novelty vehicles. People chases involve lots of running. Many chases include shooting. There are many variants on the chase story, ranging from on foot to assorted vehicles. The chase may involve criminals as fugitives or pursuers. ExampleThe Fugitive DiscussionChasing plays to a deep need to be wanted, to belong, to be loved and held in high esteem. Chasing may thus be played out in 'Catch me' games. A variant of the chase is romantic or emotional, where one person seeks the affections of another. One of the most cynically remarkable thing about high speed chases in movies is that surprisingly few people get hurt. This perhaps reflects the desire for See also |

Reduction of pesticide use
Bio-organic farming is an agricultural approach which uses biological pest control as an alternative to toxic synthetic insecticides, for example employing parasitic wasps against the dangerous larvae of the European corn borer. The results described here show that GLVs might be used to increase the effectiveness of such biological control. Like farmers using parasitic wasps, wild tobacco plants "use" Geocoris predators, attracting them with GLVs to predate Manduca herbivores. GLVs have been shown to attract other predators and parasitoids, and are emitted by all crop plants studied. "Su

Posted January 31, 2013 on
AP on Fox
The Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to terms on 2013 contracts with second baseman Neil Walker and right-handed pitcher James McDonald on Thursday, avoiding arbitration.
Terms of the deals were not disclosed.
Walker hit .280 with 14 home runs and 69 RBIs in 129 games last season but missed significant time due to a back injury. The 27-year-old Pittsburgh native made $500,000 in 2012 and was arbitration eligible for the first time this winter.
The 28-year-old McDonald went 12-8 with a 4.21 ERA in 2012 but struggled for most of the second half. McDonald made $502,500 last year. He is expected to be the team's third starter in 2013 behind A.J. Burnett and Wandy Rodriguez.
The deals mean the Pirates have reached agreement with all of their arbitration-eligible players. Pitchers and catchers report in Bradenton, Fla., on Feb. 11.

Comment: Re:A good thing for reducing gun violence? (Score 1) 712
Donating to politicians to tie their product to freedom
Little need when such a right was explicitly codified in 1791.
The interpretation of the 2nd amendment is an entire different topic of discussion, that I do not want to get dragged into, but I think an honest person will admit that it is not entirely clear how to interpret it whether you come from the pro-gun or anti-gun side. On the anti-gun side someone could highlight the issue of what it means to be a "well regulated militia" and also that a strict reading of firearm means whatever a firearm was at the time. On the pro-gun side someone could argue that surface to air missiles should be legal. I don't mean to argue either of these points, just that enough ambiguity exists that there is an incentive for those who profit from guns to spend capital on keeping their product legal. I seem to remember the tobacco industry making constitutional arguments for use of their product as well and I've met more than one smoker that asserts that their right to make others suck down their carcinogens is part of living in a free country. And I generally agree with them that if you were to present the issue to someone living in 1791 they would laugh at the idea of banning smoking in any context.
granted the new buying is happening, but again, I'm not convinced it is done because of any explicit efforts on the part of the gun makers
Ok, so you do believe that the gun industry is the one exception among all other businesses in that they are not making explicit efforts for people to buy their product. I don't know how to respond to that, so we will have to disagree. Regarding the origins of gun lust/interest/fascination I don't dismiss the possibility that guns are intrinsically interesting devices. I play FPS games and I think everyone likes the basic idea of projecting force. But just like when I find the remote out of reach and I momentarily try to use the force to summon it to my hand Skywalker style, I suspect that media might have something to do with my son running around making shooting sounds as he points at things. Now, do I think the gun industry pays everyone who promotes guns, no, not anymore than I think the tobacco industry pays everyone to smoke a cigarette in a film. But where we disagree, apparently, is that I believe that the gun industry, like the tobacco industry, works to influence the culture so that their product is still desired even though, statistically, it's not good for you.

You mentioned advertising for cigarettes. When I suspect marketing is at work in promoting the gun culture in our country I would cite the efforts of big tobacco as an analogous example. Donating to politicians to tie their product to freedom. Making sure use of their product is featured in movies. And generally putting money in the right places to maintain a culture that is friendly to a product that is statistically harmful for most people to purchase and use.
Do I believe that big tobacco ever once placed an add telling kids that smoking is cool? No, nothing so blatant. But there is abundant evidence that they worked to promote that message in the culture using far more crafty marketing tactics. Do I think the gun industry is above doing the same? Do you? Does anyone?
Not sure what your point is about owning old guns. I don't see much argument about old guns coming from either camp in the gun debate. The gun industry has little concern if you have old guns as long as you feel compelled to buy those new ones which still represent (in your case at least) 20% of thousands of dollars of potential sales. Promoting a collecting mentality among consumers seems like a smart marketing model for gun manufacturers, baseball card manufacturers, comic book publishers, etc...
Comment: A good thing for reducing gun violence? (Score 0) 712
I'm curious as to whether anyone who really studies gun violence from either the pro or anti-gun side has looked at the possibility that making guns free might eliminate the major driving force behind America's gun obsession- the market.
I personally know several people who have personal arsenals costing thousands of dollars. I don't own any because I know that statistically I'm very unlikely to need one and would rather spend my money on other things. I'm sure they are convinced I am at risk, which technically I am, but I know that it is a far lower risk than having a heart attack and I don't see any of them with a portable defib.
Whenever people make irrational choices en mass I suspect marketing. So what happens when 3d printing is able to make all the signature weapons that are the pride of the various gun manufacturers? No more gun profits means no more gun marketing.
Of course, a good counter-argument might be that the internet has made things like media freely available and the markets have only grown. IDK, do people still pay for porn?
Comment: Re:The ways I wish email was more like snail mail (Score 1) 439
If it was just about profitability it would charge more to send letters to BF, Alaska, but it is required by law to provide all citizens equal access to the system. So in that respect it is more of a government service. That's also why they can't raise their stamp rates anytime they like. So it is not my assumption that they are a lean, mean capitalist machine that leads me to conclude their bulk pricing rates are optimized. Rather it is the observation that I don't have a metric butt-ton of junk mail. I get more than I want, but about as much as I would expect given the costs to business to print and mail the stuff.
I don't doubt at all that there are lobbyists trying to move things their way, but I don't think there is that much room to move with respect to bulk mailing prices. I could be wrong, but I don't think I could sustain the interest in an actuarial analysis of average advertising per customer acquisition via bulk mailing blah blah blah... in order to know that I am wrong, but that is really not my main point. I just think the USPS could find an email model for there service that could bring a lot of the pluses of snail mail to email.
Will they? No.
Comment: Re:The ways I wish email was more like snail mail (Score 1) 439
Although I suspect that the USPS arrived at those rates because they do optimize their profits by hitting the right price points for bulk mailers. But that does present a conflict of interests- the USPS will want more people sending you stuff if they can charge people to do so and you want them to charge people enough to prevent them from sending you crap.
From the user's perspective the best thing would be to let the user set the cost. Of course, if a user sets a bill of $1000 then they don't get anything and that kills the utility of it being a delivery service.
A fair compromise would be if they hit a price point that results in the same average number of spams arriving as the average number of junk snail mail. The prices would have to be higher per email than postage per junk mail to reflect the savings in paper, but for the USPS I'm sure the overall reduction in delivery costs would put them back in the black.
It would also result in much more relevant, targeted spam that more closely approximates the kind of junk snail mail people get now. But I still probably wouldn't read it.

2. Certified mail (I can know that someone got it and acknowledged getting it)
3. All the force of law (satisfying legal requirements of official notices, putting official timestamps on documents, etc...)
4. Everyone has an official address
My guess is the USPS could provide those services in a model where revenue from #1 pays for the servers and operating costs of #4. And they justify it by #3
Then provide a way to work with independent third party encryption services and a way to designate favorites who can send me email for free and I might funnel all my email through it.
I'm sure they are reading it anyway.

Specification of neuronal fate in the vertebrate central nervous system depends on the profile of transcription factor expression by neural progenitor cells, but the precise roles of such factors in neurogenesis remain poorly characterized. Two closely related transcriptional repressors, Nkx6.2 and Nkx6.1, are expressed by progenitors in overlapping domains of the ventral spinal cord. We provide genetic evidence that differences in the level of repressor activity of these homeodomain proteins underlies the diversification of interneuron subtypes, and provides a fail-safe mechanism during motor neuron generation. A reduction in Nkx6 activity further permits V0 neurons to be generated from progenitors that lack homeodomain proteins normally required for their generation, providing direct evidence for a model in which progenitor homeodomain proteins direct specific cell fates by actively suppressing the expression of transcription factors that direct alternative fates.

How to Make a Chef's Hat
Edited by Permasofty, Sweety angel
The tradition of wearing a chef's hat while cooking is one that dates back to the 19th century. Still today, it remains an iconic symbol for chefs and the chef's hat is considered to be an essential part of the chef's professional uniform. Even if you're not a professional chef, you can have your very own chef's hat. The following steps outline the process by which you can make your own chef's hat.
1Cut the paper to size.
- Select white poster board, construction paper or other fairly sturdy paper and cut it to measure 26 inches (66 cm) long and 3 1/2 inches (9 cm) high. This becomes the hat band.
Ad -
2Prepare the tissue paper.
- Fold 3 large sheets of tissue paper in half the long way, but keep the sheets separate from each other.
3Tape the edges.
- Tape one of the short edges of the folded tissue paper at one end of the hat band. Then continue taping the other two sheets of tissue paper in a similar fashion making sure to slightly overlap the previous sheet of tissue paper as you tape the next one.
4Adjust the hat size.
- Hold the hat band with the taped side facing outward and place it around the chef's head and use paperclips to hold it in position. Remove the hat from the chef's head and trim off any excess from the hat band with scissors. Tape the loose end of the hat band to the hat band and remove the paperclips.
5Finish the bulbous top of the hat.
- Holding the hat upside down, tape the loose ends of the folded tissue paper to the inside of the hat band, directly across from the first taped end. Continue with the remaining folded pieces of tissue paper, overlapping them slightly.
6Puff the tissue top of the hat and finish.
- Turn the hat right side up and puff the tissue paper to form the bulbous top of the chef's hat. Place it on the chef's head and you're all finished.
Things You'll Need
- White poster board or construction paper
- White tissue paper
- 2 paperclips
- Tape
- Scissors
- Ruler or measuring tape

Can anyone tell me what ALL of the mounts throughout the Aralon game? I've found six - horse, wolf, dinorat, dragon, drake and terror bird - but the ads for the game say there are eight mounts. I've heard there might be a giant chocobo but I haven't found one and I have no idea what the last one is. Any help is appreciated
Answer from: BushMan6
I think you have to count all of the horses.

customer satisfaction
Click here now..
Ok, I started working for Western Express June 3rd, 2011. The company has had its ups and downs (more downs than ups,) and issues like any other trucking company out there. However, I have stuck with them now for over 10 months hoping things would get better. They have only gotten progressively worse.
If you call a recruiter at Western Express, you will be told about how you can get all the miles you want, about 2500-3000 per week (is what I was told when I called last year)...however, I've only broken 3000 miles in a week only about 4 or 5 times in 10 months!!! The average seems to be about 1200-2000 depending on the way the runs come together.
Now, I'm a hard worker and like to run 3-5 weeks out mostly. When I'm gone I expect to be paid well for the time I'm away from family. Well, the excuses are tremendous here, everything from slow freight to no freight to "Nashville" is being too picky about the freight. [continued below]....
Also...the CSR and planners don't do their job very well. For example...the load I was needed an appointment reschedule due to the late time of the evening it was picked up. I waited all day...waited...and finally called the customer myself...all in about 2 minutes I had an appointment! Well, CSR didn't like the way I did their job for her so she re-set my appointment for way early in the a.m. I had this load set to t-call in the yard because the appointment was set for Friday at 10 a.m. She changed it for 7 a.m. Thursday! (tomorrow!) Now I have to sit on this crap load and deliver it without being able to head out on my next one!!
Oh...and the company STEALS money from each and every driver to under the weekly "driver services" $2.50 FEE each week. Yes, the company CHARGES you for use of the pre-pass/ez pass and the transflow. Those are COMPANY expenses...not employee expenses. Now if we were contractors that would be one thing, but we are not. Oh...and D.O.T., due to the company's POOR safety rating, has forbidden the use of pre-pass! Yet...we are still charged each and every week!!!
In a nut shell, my family has faced eviction a few times, has had to go to food banks, is always wondering what the next week will bring, has been having marital issues, and has had daddy away for several weeks at a time...but without much to show for it, except on a few occasions where its a decent week.
Ever since the founder or owner passed away, the ones who have taken the reigns have run this company into the ground! They are the most greedy sob's I've ever heard of. Oh, and Don't believe those cool looking recruiting ads you see in the trucking publications...you know "Roll with the Black and the White!" They are holding orientation most weeks, due to the fact the company wants bodies in the trucks, regardless of whether they have the freight or not. That's right...new drivers each week means sharing your miles. Instead of 2500-3000 miles...about 1200-2000 each. LOW pay, regardless of years of experience.
RUN RUN as fast as you can...work for Western Express and your a** will be in the frying pan!!!

I've never worked with XNA before and i think it will appear better solutions then mine. But a workaround that might work is that you could put a invisible object on the extremes of the cliffs and the monster could check for collision with those object. If it collides, then changes direction.
It's a while since I played Worms, but from what I remember - when the rope wraps around things, there's only one (straight) section of rope that's moving at any one time. The rest of the rope becomes static

To determine when to split the rope, you must look at the area that the rope covers each frame. What you do is you do a collision check with the area covered and your level geometry. The area that a swing covers should be an arc. If there is a collision, you need to make a new segment to the rope. Check for corners that collide with the swinging arc. If ...
One naive way of implementing it is by using raycasting.
Calculate where your monster will be in some small chunk of time (probably a frame). From that position (or if you want to be more robust, that position +/- the bounding area of your enemy) do a raycast down. If it doesn't hit something within an appropriate range (depending on where you start your ...
atan2 is a mathematical function; it is stateless. There is nothing in it to "know" that you want an angle which is close to the angle from the previous frame, as opposed to an angle which is simply sufficient to identify the direction.
You must write your own logic to handle this case. There are several possible behaviors you could implement; here's the ...
Well, you already have the tools, you just need to think of it differently. Rather than thinking trying to find empty space, you just need to find space with no collisions. Basically, all you have to do is test the area above the player with a rectangle the size of the player, and then if there are collisions, the player can't climb up. If there aren't ...
One relatively simplistic way of doing this is to draw a ray from the center of the explosion to the center of every entity where DISTANCE(explosion,entity) < exlosion.max_radius (pseudo-code).
For each entity, follow this ray, decreasing base damage as you go. Whenever you hit an object subtract it's cover value from the damage (essentially shortening ...
Although in .NET value types are stored on the stack, resulting in a minimal allocation cost, it does not however eliminate the cost of initialization.
In this case we have a set of functions using one or two temporary matrices, which would result in the initialization of 16-32 floats per call. While this may seem insignificant, if the methods are used ...
If you look at the Farseer Physics Engine 3.3.1 Testbed XNA code, you'll find an example called OneSidedPlatformTest. Inside this test is the code required to create Fixtures that act in the manner you're requesting.

Ok, after about two hours of tinkering I managed to do this but it requires adding some extra bodies. You'll probably want to extract this stuff into a method/class but the basic idea is this:
Create what I call "holder" bodies for your objects. These bodies
share the size and position of your "objects" but don't participate
in collisions. Essentially, ...
The answer is simple: a physics engine is not a platformer engine.
While you can get kind-of platformer-like behaviour out of a physics engine, you simply do not have enough control to get that really "fluid" gameplay feel of a proper platformer.
For example: The classic Mario-style jump requires changing the gravity for the player at different stages of ...
Steering behaviors work very well in combination with a physics-engine, as they are usually implemented in a way that they return a "steering force" which can then be applied to your physics-body.
To make a unit follow a path, you could use Seek to go from path-node to path-node (make sure to avoid overshoot) and then use Arrival at the last node in your ...
Look at the reference of Matrix.CreateOrthographic, and notice that it says this:
The viewable area of this orthographic projection is centered on 0,0,0. The x-axis of the area ranges from -width/2 to width/2. The y-axis of the area ranges from -height/2 to height/2.
So, in your case, the upper border of the screen has an Y coordinate of -scale/2 instead ...
I haven't used it, but a quick google search turned up this thread.
It makes sense since all physics engines, in my experience, give you the ability to apply impulses and/or forces. So look for the ApplyLinearImpulse/ApplyAngularImpulse functions. They enable you to specify points where you apply the impulse.
Farseer uses an iterative solver, so when your wheel starts colliding with another rectangle at high velocity, from time to time you'll see bumps since it's a "perfect align" to us, not to a physics simulation, with iterations things like these will never be "pixel-perfect".
You will have to convert rectangles to Edge/Loop shapes and then model different ...
Do what your game does to start up.
The simple, dumb way would be to re-initialize all your objects and variables as they do in the initialization of your game.
You could be clever here, and only reload those elements that are modified during game-play (your models, maps, and textures likely don't change, for instance).
If your character / gameworld has ...
Check out how the ninja rope in Gusanos was implemented:

I had the vertices of the contour as a sequence, so the solution was use the LoopShape to create the fixture of the body. I did not even know that Class =P

What I do is add a Texture2D directly to my game objects. I have another class called an AnimationController which manages my source rectangle/frames/timing for drawing animations from the texture. I suppose this would be similar to what your Sprite class does.

Farseer does ship a physics view, and thankfully it requires very little brain power to implement and use.
If you downloaded the "Farseer Physics Engine 3.3.1 Samples XNA" recommended package on their download page, you'd see a lot of examples included.
Navigate to (or click these convenient links to the codeplex page :P) ...
float angle = MathHelper.ToRadians(45);
float power = 20; // <- tunable value
Vector2 direction = new Vector2((float)Math.Cos(angle), (float)Math.Sin(angle));
fixture.Body.ApplyLinearImpulse(power * direction);
The above applies an instantaneous force to the object. You could also set Body.LinearVelocity directly.
To check for the space key being ...
Please take my answer as "the right way to do this", not necessarily the "good for a student project" way.
Rigid body physics are entirely inappropriate for modeling "walking" behaviour.
Rigid body physics are good for handling things like bouncing and friction. Which are things you want to avoid in a typical platformer. There is no "right shape" that will ...
Farseer Physics Engine's support of polygons is otherwise well-documented. Although the documentation may need to be updated to the latest version.
You can create polygons using a list of Vertices; simply put the coordinates of all the corners. Vertices can either be defined in code, or be generated on the basis of an image file using some of the tools ...
Does the erroneous line in your World.step() method have square brackets in it anywhere? Or a get() method of some sort with an index in it.

Farseer Bodies have a method like so:

Physics engines and tile based platformers are not mutually exclusive. For example you can combine the Farseer Physics engine and the XNA Platformer Starter Kit (This will also explain a pure tile based approach to you). Simply remove all exisiting collision detection code (from the Player class) and give the Tiles and Player class Bodies and associated ...
I think the easiest way would be to just create some geometry you can actually texture. Just create a quad (2 triangles) for every segment of your world. This should be straight-forward to texture. To optimize this, you can remove quads that leave the screen during gameplay.
For an idea how you could apply your texture using UV coordinates, see this answer.

Bright Angel Lodge and Cabins (Grand Canyon, USA)
Date: 14/11/11, updated on 14/11/11 (57 review reads)
Advantages: Closest lodge, clean and comfortable rooms
Disadvantages: Food expensive and average, dated rooms
There are few options for places to stay within the Grand Canyon National Park and this is situated in the prime location for some of the best views of the South Point which is one of the most popular spot to view the Grand Canyon. This lodge is also the oldest of those available. We have stayed at the Bright Angel twice in the last few years and not a lot has changed in that time except the price.
I have mentioned that Bright Angel is the oldest accommodation within the Grand Canyon National Park and was the only place at one time. It was designed by the architect Mary E.J. Colter in 1935 and has a distinctly rustic cabin look; it is now a registered National Historic Landmark.
The first time we stayed here we had one of the rustic cabins which gave us comfortable basic comfort with an ensuite shower room and toilet. The bed was comfortable and the furnishings suitably rustic looking and functional.
The second and more recent time we stayed we had two double rooms in the Lodge. When we arrived the rooms were not quite ready so we went into the bar and enjoyed a coffee and a snack. After this one room was ready so we brought all our stuff into that room before we headed out for a walk to explore the area a little.
I have said that this lodge is in a perfect location and indeed it is right on the rim of the canyon. We could walk out of the main door walk ten paces and we were at the rim so you can't get closer than that. We chose this because we knew it was close to the rim and at 4.30 am when you get up to watch the sunrise the less far you have to travel the better.
This is a popular place to stay and you have to book through Xanterra which seems to be the company that operates all the National Park accommodation. We booked almost a year before hand in both cases but my son who joined us only booked a few weeks before and he could only get accommodation at Yavapai Lodge which is probably because it is the Grand Canyon National Park Lodges' largest accommodation . It is a very attractive setting surrounded by Pinyon and Juniper woodlands and is about 1/2 mile from the rim.
The lodge has a number of rooms, some family rooms, some double and others have multiple beds. Some have ensuite bathrooms while others share communal bathrooms down the corridor. We chose two rooms with ensuite bathrooms as we are at that certain age when we may need the toilet during the night. The difference in price was about $10 per room which we felt was worth the price.
Room one had a good sized double bed, wardrobe, desk unit but neither room had TV nor did they have tea or coffee making equipment . You were told that you were NOT to cook in the rooms but we felt that we could use our kettle to make a cup of tea without causing too much of a problem
The ensuite in room one had a shower unit, basin and toilet that were all nice and clean and perfectly functional.
The second room was larger and had a view to the side of the lodge, not the rim sadly but those rooms were quite a lot more money per night and we didn't really feel it was worth the extra money as we could walk out and see the Canyon very easily. The bed was very comfortable and we had a bedside light on one side of the bed as well as a bedside table.
This room had a larger ensuite with a bath and shower over this. My daughter very kindly gave us this room as I do love my bath and they are happy with the shower.
Neither room was that of a luxury hotel. They were basic, functional and clean but rather dated or rustic if you are being kind. You would not choose to stay here for the room, the facilities nor indeed the food which we found distinctly average in everything but price. You stya here to see the Grand Canyon and because it is the closest place you can stay to the rim and because it is a Historically interesting building.
The snack lunch and coffee we had near the bar was what I would describe as functional eating. There was nothing specifically wrong with anything but it was ordinary and boring. I believe we had nachos and coffee.
The restaurant was large and pretty fully booked which is not surprising as it is the onky place to eat at Bright Angel if you want a proper meal. We booked to go in quite late as we were waiting to hear from my son and partner who were flying in from Toronto to Las Vegas and driving to the Grand Canyon to join us for the night. Think they finally arrived at about 9pm having seen the sunset on the way in and then they checked in to Yavapai lodge then came to join us for a meal.
We wanted it to be special as we hadn't seen my son since he let in February to go to Toronto and prior to that he had been in Australia for a year. We had a table for six and settled to choose our food.
We had a pretty good choice of dishes from salmon through to steak via various salads, pasta dishes and other meat dishes such as pork loin. We were all quite starving and ate everything but nothing really said ' wow' and it was served in a fairly ordinary way, a bit like a home cooked dinner. Once again there was nothing wrong with anything but it was a pretty expensive meal by American standards and just didn't really offer anything to justify the price tag. We found the same when we were in Yellowstone National Park where the accommodation is also run by Xanterra.
My feeling is that Xanterra have a monopoly and that because their accommodation is within the National Parks they will always be full with no competition. The accommodation has been basic and functional but at the same price as we paid for far nicer places outside the National Parks. I think they are resting on their laurels somewhat and make little effort to offer decent food because people have nowhere else to go so they have to eat there. Little effort has been made to update the accommodation either but it is clean and the beds were comfortable so I have no major complaints there.
I would say if you are visiting any of the large National Parks in the USA book well in advance and don't expect bargain prices or luxury accommodation. The accommodation is somewhere basic to stay while you experience the wonders of the park it is not somewhere to stay to experience the accommodation.
If you are planning a visit in the US summer break then be prepared for crowds. When we were at the Grand Canyon in August it was really crowded, there were cars at every car park and crowds at the viewing points. We had to queue to check in and out and getting food was a nightmare. This time we were there in June and although the lodge was pretty full and there were still plenty of people around the place somehow it seemed calmer. We were able to walk along the rim by the Bright Angel without dodging children with ice creams.
When we walked to Yavapai lodge we walked across the railway track and a wonderful old steam train had just arrived depositing hundreds of people who had come on a day trip. There were also many coaches full of day tourists but by about 5pm most of the coaches had long gone and the train left at about 3pm so the place really emptied out.
The walk to Yavapai from Bright Angel takes you through the pine forest on paved paths and is about half a mile. There is a shop at Yavapai where you can buy souvenirs, food, snacks , clothes and beer. They have cottoned on to the tourist market and made a 'Grand Canyon' beer so naturally we had to buy a few of those to drink while watching the sunset over the Canyon. The prices were a bit higher than outside the National Park but they always are in this type of shop so we were not surprised.
If you want to do a mule trek into the Canyon then Bright Angel is the place to book this.We walked passed the mules in their home when we walked to Yavapai, there were hundreds of them waiting for riders.
Other options to explore the Canyon include trekking down and satying in the Canyon caming. Flying by helicopter over the canyon which we did the preious time and I would thoroughly recommend as an experience. You can also drive for some distance and go out on the glass walkway but the price is about the same as a helicopter ride and there is no contest as to which I would choose. We had to planned to go on the walkway until we found out how far it was to get there and what the price was per person and then we decided against this.
All in all I would recommend the Bright Angel as it is the original lodge and by far the closest to the rim. The cost of accommodation is reasonable but the standard is basic and remember to book ahead as it does get busy at holiday times especially.
Thanks for reading. I hope this has been of some use to someone planning a visit to the Grand Canyon looking to stay within the National Park.

SummaryThe steroid hormone ecdysone directs Drosophila metamorphosis via three heterodimeric receptors that differ according to which of three ecdysone receptor isoforms encoded by the EcR gene (EcR-A, EcR-B1, or EcR-B2) is activated by the orphan nuclear receptor USP. We have identified and molecularly mapped two classes of EcR mutations: those specific to EcR-B1 that uncouple metamorphosis, and embryonic-lethal mutations that map to common sequences encoding the DNA- and ligand-binding domains. In the larval salivary gland, loss of EcR-B1 results in loss of activation of ecdysone-induced genes. Comparable transgenic expression of EcR-B1, EcR-B2, and EcR-A in these mutant glands results, respectively, in full, partial, and no repair of that loss.

SummaryIn flies, ecdysone integrates growth with developmental transitions by antagonizing insulin signaling, which links growth with nutritional status. Work in Developmental Cell (Delanoue et. al, 2010) finds that ecdysone represses the transcription factor Myc in the larval fat body to inhibit systemic growth, revealing a mechanism for such coordination.

SummaryTranscription factors of the Myc proto-oncogene family promote cell division, but how they do this is poorly understood. Here we address the functions of Drosophila Myc (dMyc) during development. Using mosaic analysis in the fly wing, we show that loss of dMyc retards cellular growth (accumulation of cell mass) and reduces cell size, whereas dMyc overproduction increases growth rates and cell size. dMyc-induced growth promotes G1/S progression but fails to accelerate cell division because G2/M progression is independently controlled by Cdc25/String. We also show that the secreted signal Wingless patterns growth in the wing primordium by modulating dMyc expression. Our results indicate that dMyc links patterning signals to cell division by regulating primary targets involved in cellular growth and metabolism.

Add/View Comments (0)The Steroid Hormone Ecdysone Controls Systemic Growth by Repressing dMyc Function in Drosophila Fat Cells

► The steroid hormone ecdysone acts on Drosophila fat cells to control global growth ► Upon hormone action, Myc expression in fat cells is repressed ► Myc controls systemic growth through adipose ribosomal protein content ► The fat ribosomal content mediates global growth via an unknown relay mechanism
- How steroid hormones shape animal growth remains poorly understood. In Drosophila, the main steroid hormone, ecdysone, limits systemic growth during juvenile development. Here we show that ecdysone controls animal growth rate by specifically acting on the fat body, an organ that retains endocrine and storage functions of the vertebrate liver and fat. We demonstrate that fat body-targeted loss of function of the Ecdysone receptor (EcR) increases dMyc expression and its cellular functions such as ribosome biogenesis. Moreover, changing dMyc levels in this tissue is sufficient to affect animal growth rate. Finally, the growth increase induced by silencing EcR in the fat body is suppressed by cosilencing dMyc. In conclusion, the present work reveals an unexpected function of dMyc in the systemic control of growth in response to steroid hormone signaling.
