First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Figures from UK payments association Apacs show UK online banking fraud increased from £23.2 million (AUD$57.1 million) in 2005 to £33.5 million (AUD$82.4 million) last year.
But losses from payment card fraud fell slightly, from £439.4 million in 2005 to £428.0 million in 2006, with a much sharper 47 percent fall in card fraud losses at UK retailers -- showing the continuing impact of chip and PIN technology.
Fraud in cases where the actual card is not presented, known as "card not present fraud" has risen, with losses up by 16 percent, and now accounts for nearly half all card fraud losses. To put total fraud losses further into context, however, losses as a percentage of plastic card turnover equated to 0.095 percent in 2006 -- significantly less than the 0.141 percent figure in 2004.
Apacs attributed an increase in card fraud committed abroad to the growing phenomenon of counterfeiting cards by copying their magnetic stripe. Such cards can be used in countries that have not adopted chip and PIN technology.
Sandra Quinn, communications director at Apacs, said: "These figures clearly show that there is no 'one size fits all' approach to dealing with fraud. Chip and PIN has had a hugely positive effect on fraud losses over the counter in UK shops and stores, but we are seeing more fraud on transactions that do not use chip and PIN -- such as over the internet and phone, by mail order and abroad in countries that have not yet fully upgraded to chip and PIN."
She added: "Fighting fraud is never going to succeed with a single-layered approach. It requires different sectors -- including public and private -- to work together on developing and implementing strategies, sharing best practice and, most importantly, sharing data."
She called for government intervention "to remove the current barriers" to data sharing and welcomed measures to allow this in the Serious Crime Bill.
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Budget Accommodation Europe Austria Vienna Apartments Benina
The apartment was very clean and well appointed, even though the outside of the building did not suggest that this would be the case. It is very handy to Schoenbrunn Palace and grounds, and also to a couple of U-bahn stations, so getting to the central city is no problem.
Individually styled, separate apartments with all comforts (private toilets and private bathrooms) and absolute privacy in a beautiful Viennese building - an ideal place for those who dislike the impersonal atmosphere of hotels, for a family of three (or four) or for those travelling on budget. Each apartment has a fully equipped kitchen corner, which makes it possible to cook your own food, anytime you wish (there are two supermarkets just round the corner).
Satellite TV and a radio-CD player in every apartment, a DVD player on demand. Free of charge Web access (WiFi). No curfew - guests become their own keys. Children starting from school age (7 years) are welcome, for smaller kids we are not the right place.
Apartment Gaby ('Superior') has two broad (90 cm) and comfortable sofas, which on demand can be shifted together to form a double bed.
Apartment Dora ('De Luxe') has a double bed and a broad (150 cm) sofa-bed - that sofa-bed can, at a surcharge of 15,00 EUR/each additional person (20,00 EUR in peak season), sleep two youngsters or school-age children, if necessary.
A perfect location: just a few hundred meters away from Park & Palace Schoenbrunn (a historical place equally ideal for a leisure walk or for jogging), two underground stations and a shopping street with banks, shops, fitness centre, swimming pool. There is a number of good and affordable restaurants, both Austrian and foreign, within walking distance.
Guests would be kindly requested to pay cash upon arrival - naturally, each payment is confirmed with an invoice. And for each seventh night we charge nothing!
As 'Benina' is a family undertaking and there is no hotel-like reception there (no front-desk), it is essential to let us know the approximate arrival time so that we are physically there on site when guests arrive. For late night arrivals (after 23:30) or early check-outs (before 6:30) 15,00 EUR will be collected - this refers to bookings done, not to nights before or to nights after the booked period.
Upon request we can pick up our guests from the train station (10.00 EUR) or from the airport (30.00 EUR).
Attention : no check-in 19-21.04., 24-25.12., 31.12.2014 and 01.01.2015 (check-out on all those dates possible).
As there is no hotel-like reception (no front-desk) at 'Benina', please consult your check-in time in advance. For late night arrivals (after 23:30) or early check-outs (before 6:30) 15,00 EUR will be collected - this refers to BOOKINGS DONE, not to nights before or to nights after the booked period.
ATTENTION : no check-in 19-21.04., 24-25.12., 31.12.2014 and 01.01.2015 (check-out on all those dates possible).
Singrienergasse 9 Vienna

This is a Trusted Review. Why?
The apartment was very clean and well appointed, even though the outside of the building did not suggest that this would be the case. It is very handy to Schoenbrunn Palace and grounds, and also to a couple of U-bahn stations, so getting to the central city is no problem. We were warm and comfortable. As we had booked online and paid the deposit by credit card, we were not aware that the balance of our account had to be paid in cash and when we arrived - so be warned to bring sufficient funds with you or else you will need to go to an ATM! We would certainly use the apartments were we to visit Vienna again .
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
Our stay at Benina was excellent. The apartment is very nice and every little detail to make our stay comfortable was taken care of. The location is great too, not far from the center and in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. The owner was very nice and helpful. We would definitively recommend it!
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
The flat is beautifully decorated with such details that feels just like home. The kitchen is equiped with everything you might need. The bed is also very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay.
The location is a okay, short walk to the metro and a short ride to city. There are supermarkets and restaurants around the corner.
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
This apartment was extremely nice to stay in. The building is in need of restoration because it is quite beautiful: lovely stained glass and wrought iron-work on the doors, and the plaster work is also very good, though in need of some work.
The flat itself is modern, nicely decorated, extremely well appointed, and the landlord was very helpful.
There is relatively easy access to metro lines (ten minutes), shops and the tourist parts of the city. It is also very close to Schonbrun Palace, which is an major tourist destination. The flat itself was quite spacious.
One difficulty is that it is two flights up and there is no lift. Having said that, I would not hesitate to reccomend this apartment.
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
The apartment is one room that's decent size for two people and it has a kitchen with stoves, fridge, microwave, oven, glasses, plates, utensils, pan, and pretty much everything you need to make a meal. It also has its own shower, toilet, and several towels. The place also offers free wifi and has a television. The place is very clean overall and the owner of the place is very friendly and helpful. There are many places to park on the street below for those who drives.
A really lovely apartment which has been beautifully renovated in a large apartment block. The bathroom in our apartment was large, the kitchen was fully equipped, and all spotlessly clean. An ideal place to stay for couples, very close to the park and Palace Schönbrunn. The host was very friendly and helpful, and arranged to transfer us to the airport as well as helping carry our bags up the stairs as there is no lift.
I would definitely recommend this place to stay
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
A lovely apartment with all the amenities you would expect. The host was very friendly and helpful. He was also very prompt for the airport pickup. The public transport system in Vienna is very good and this apartment is well loctaed to access it. The large supermarket around the corner was also very convenient. The only negative was the apartment being on the second floor with only stair access, but the host helped us with our heavy luggage so this was no real issue.
We would definitely stay here again.

Henry Selick
Open iTunes to preview, buy, and download this movie.
Plot Summary
From the Director of The Nightmare Before Christmas comes a visually stunning stop-motion animated feature like you've never seen before! Coraline Jones is bored in her new home until she finds a secret door that leads her into a world that's just like her own…but better! But when this fantastical adventure turns dangerous and her "other" Mother tries to keep her forever, Coraline must count on her resourcefulness and bravery to get home. Critics are hailing Coraline as "A remarkable feat of imagination." (Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times).
Movie Reviews from Rotten Tomatoes

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: The vision of Henry Selick adds a darkness to this sometimes sinister fairy tale.
Fresh: The results are simply astonishing. Selick has created a richly detailed, beautifully realised set of parallel worlds and allows us to become as lost as Coraline herself in and between their exquisite textures.
Fresh: It's wildly inventive, thoroughly amusing and fuelled by unhinged imagination. And it's creepy as all hell.
Fresh: This dark edge will be the biggest test of the film as a commercial prospect: it may be too terrifying for the target audience. But for braver kids - and parents - this is a thrilling, even challenging ride.
Customer Reviews
A movie that got it right,
I feel like this movie really shows progress in breaking up the childish image that american animated movies are stuck with today. This movie is really kind of a slap in the face to other animated movies saying 'you dont need talking gerbles doing karate to have a good movie'. Its a great movie. So well done. And so maticulous, it seems like they didnt take the easy way out in any aspect of making this movie. Which is hard to find in cimema today. I applaud Henry Selick. And by the way, TIM BURTON DID NOT MAKE THIS MOVIE. Tim Burton isnt even associated. The director of The Nightmare Before Chirstmas is Henry Selick. Tim Burton created the story for TNBC and characters, but did NOT direct it. So stop saying what a good job Tim Burton did on this movie because he didnt even do anything.
o m g
Coraline is one of the most spectacular films. With its twisted humor, and dark perception, it exceeded my expectations. From the commercials it didn't see like much, but after seeing it in 3D, it felt like a dream. I was hooked through the entire film, not wanting to leave the theatre. Director, Henry Selick, did a good job separating the book and movie, and making then equal in similarity and uniqueness. The storyline was what drew me in the most. It wasn't clique, and it was a good sense of creepy. I read the book, and watched the movie, and I am satisfied with both.
Absolutely Amazing!
Since a lot of you won't want to read long reviews, you'll just need to know the following. The animation is wonderful and the storyline is amazing. I saw this in theaters and have been counting down to the day of the release. It's definately worth the money!

Karolina Kurkova Talks Teaching Healthy Eating on Tonight's 'Top Model'
Wednesday, October 06, 2010

Senior Writer, BuddyTV
Add as BuddyTV Friend »
Tonight on
America's Next Top Model
, Karolina Kurkova isn't just the guest judge--she's also the girls' guest mentor.
Kurkova certainly has the resume to back up any advice she might bestow on the
Top Model
girls. The 26-year-old Czech native is a bona fide super model, and has worked with just about every major fashion name out there: Victoria's Secret, Valentino, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Christian Dior, Versace, Calvin Klein, Carolina Herrera, Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs, and the list goes on.
Beyond judging
their wrestling-inspired photos
tonight, Kurkova makes it her personal mission to get Tyra's apprentices to eat better. Kurkova discussed her
Top Model
appearance in a media conference call yesterday, and it sounds like she had her work cut out for her:
"I mean they were showing me how they cooked fried Oreos," said Kurkova, "which was - I've never even heard that it existed."
Read on for more from supermodel Karolina Kurkova on her
Top Model
experience, what she thought of the girls' prospects in the modeling world, their eating habits, and what she thinks of Tyra's show:
the personal discussion she leads with the girls on
Top Model
"I mean, I haven't seen the episode yet, but the whole filming, I mean, was very casual. I had no heels on. I'm very simple. And I came to their home, and I really came a very - almost like a friend, like a peer [...] and hang out with them and kind of talk about their experiences, and what they've been through and why they want to be models. Or if people are laughing at them [...] things they're maybe not so crazy about or confident about. And how to work with it."
"They could ask me anything. I mean, we discussed so many personal things and, you know, girls were crying to me. And like, and that was really special to me that they could-they felt so comfortable with me, they could open up with me."
On what she thought of the
Top Model
contestants' modeling prospects:
"There's a lot of different type of girls that can do all kinds of different things from editorial to more commercial work to more run way or more type of, you know, commercials or movie type of things. [...] I think they still have a lot to learn and they need to get, also, more comfortable with who they are and kind of understand who they are and who they want to be, most importantly. That, you know, they really need to work - come out of their shells and really own who they are and who they want to be."
Can a Top Model winner actually make it in the fashion world?
"It has to do a lot with the girl-with their looks, you know, are they the right looks for what's happening, what's the inspiration for the designers and magazines and editors. And also, you know, do they have personality. [...] It's about a package. It's about being beautiful. Being kind. Being professional. And being, you know, what kind of people are looking for. And, if there is a girl that comes from
America's Next Top Model
and has all those things, and has that, like, umpf, and that light. I think it doesn't matter where she comes from. You know, I mean, everyone's got to work the same way. We've got to work hard. And, maybe she has to work even more because she come from, maybe, a reality TV show. But you know what? Everything is possible."
On her goal of talking to the models about healthy eating:
"I mean, it's so important to eat and eat well. And you need your fueling and you need the energy. I know, myself, I mean, if I don't eat properly, I cannot just be living on lettuce and water. You know, and I think that people have this misunderstanding that, to be a successful model, I'm to be a size zero. [...] And I still think it's important and I feel like our industry has been getting such a bad rep that, you know, models don't take care of themselves. They smoke. They drink. They don't eat. And, you know, that's not my case. I've never been that way. I've never smoked in my life. I don't really drink. And I'm all about really good eating and, you know, getting everything, all the nutrients and all the yummy - and, yummy stuff from food."
What eating lessons did she teach the girls?
"I made, like a green fruit smoothie juice for the girls, which, actually, they loved. Which I'm so proud of because, you know, it's hard to win girls, who are used to eating chips and fried Oreos and pizza all the time. And here I come, and I made them a green juice with fruit blended all together. And they kind of liked it. They were like, "Oh, this is good." And when I left, I left the blender there-it was like kind of my gift. And then left the blender and fruit there, and they're starting to like play with it and make it."
On what she thinks of Tyra and the new, high-fashion slant on
Top Model
"I've seen Tyra's show and I like what Tyra does and her really efforts to inspire, and teach, and groom these girls to fulfill their dreams. And I think it's amazing. [...] So, I think she's doing a really good job. And I think she's really-with this season-getting more and more real fashion people involved. Like Dan Kirstenberger's on it; Patricia Field. I'm on it. Zac Posen is on it. You know, really a lot of high end fashion people who want to get involved and want to help and teach and share their little knowing-you know, the knowledge they have to these girls, plus the rest of the world."
America's Next Top Model
tonight (8pm, The CW) to see Karolina Kurkova mentor Tyra's ten remaining models, and find out which girl will be eliminated after a conveyor belt runway challenge and intense Mexican wrestling photo shoot.

Delta Force: Black Hawk Down (PC)

Games Xtreme Review

Review By: WoLf | Posted: 03/06/2003
The Final Word
It isn't trying to live up to the movie, be the movie or tie into the movie. BHD is probably one of the nicest DF games yet...if you like these games, grab it - the MP is great fun.
Delta Force: Black Hawk Down
is the latest in the long line of special ops games to come from Novalogic. It attempts to recreate the �American soldiers in the Battle of Mogadishu trying to capture two Somalian warlords� feel of the true story and of the movie. But it�s a Delta Force game and they were always flawed gems to be honest � and there in lies the rub and endeth my preamble quite nicely.
Black Hawk Down is however on a new engine and the whole thing seems to have finally shoved aside the voxel-engine for something a little more robust and graphically nicer. My only problem is that the whole game doesn�t feel as fluid and linked, as it should, the Singleplayer element feels as though it really is an addition to the Multiplayer game. But it�s here where you realise that they didn�t really set out to make a linear campaign but a series of missions that tie in with a kind of loose chronological order.
You�ll engage in a number of missions, either on foot or from a vehicle mounted position � usually behind a .50 Cal Machinegun. And there are no punches pulled, BHD is an action game and nothing more � so they pile on the action and get your adrenaline and blood pumping nicely. It�s a rollercoaster ride of hot lead and dust as you attempt to achieve your mission objectives without becoming a ventilated body in the sand.
As with most Delta Force games this one doesn�t allow you to take weapons from fallen enemies or utilise their ammunition. Ammo boxes and health packs are scattered around the maps and sometimes there�s a weapon�s locker from which you can pull a new weapon. I�m pretty used to this after seeing
DF: Task Force Dagger
and it didn�t really bother me at all.
Before the mission one is invited to select loadouts as is usually standard with the DF games, and pretty quickly you can find which weapons suit you and which don�t. I found myself sticking to a small group of weapons in the end and only using those � it is to be noted that BHD does have 25 nicely modelled weapons in the game and they�re all pretty realistically done. Damage is another factor that�s been handled nicely along with ballistics, BHD sports fall off physics that accurately map a bullet�s trajectory to the target and you must compensate for this when sniping, so it�s not a matter of click-trigger from long range and �HEADSHOT� bang they�re dead. You must be more accurate and adjust your rifle�s sight to take this into account.
A headshot or body-shot will usually kill outright and a couple of shots to a limb will usually be enough to take down and opponent. This means you can have great fun when sneaking around, it only takes a couple of shots in that sneaky foe�s hand to kill him � a bit of a problem with most shooters I have found.
Your character, Mr Nameless Soldier in the war can take up to 6 shots in total and health is shown by a Green, Yellow, Red icon which simplifies things and lets you get on with the important part of the game action. Enemies die nicely and there are a number of death animations triggered when you shoot them in various places, no one dies the same way and your suspension of disbelief is maintained.
BHD isn�t trying to be the be-all and end-all of military shooter/simulations; it�s a fun and frenetic action game that doesn�t really break any new ground however. But that is ok because it�s not trying to, it�s attempting to tell the story of the Black Hawk Down situation in that War, not by tying into a movie or a book � but by immersing you in a rich and detailed environment full of hot lead and screaming soldiers.
Gone are the voxels and the pixelated worlds of other DF games! BHD has taken a leap forwards for Novalogic and created some very nice visuals indeed. While they break no new ground against other games, for the DF series they provide a welcome change of pace as we�re given massively sprawling maps from rolling dusty deserts to run-down hovel-like Somalian streets. Death lurks around every corner in these situations and the blaze of the dying sun juxtaposes nicely against the screaming hammer of gunfire. So for what it does � the graphics engine recreates a gritty world of dangerous urban combat, handling exteriors and interiors very well � the design is nothing special but you don�t care when you�re knee deep in spent shells and hissing lead.
Character Animations and Graphics:
This is where the game feels a bit more unfinished, while the environments are gorgeous, the character models, weapons and vehicles all seem a little jagged in places. There seem to be some odd joints on the character models of allies and enemies and the animations when viewed from other angles can cause you to blink, as they almost seem a little flat. But overall the animation quality itself is pretty fluid, nothing special and nothing detrimental.
If Graphics are the bones of the experience then sound is surely the meat of it, and that�s what we get � chunky meaty sounds that hammer your auditory senses with a gorgeous range of gunfire and explosions. It�s action, action and more action brought to life with screams and yells from the commanders, from soldiers and from constant radio-chatter, as you�d expect in the thick of battle. The sounds don�t get in your face and they�re well balanced alongside the other ambient noises and the throaty-purr of vehicles and other equipment.
Musical Score:
It�s pretty good and not intrusive, it doesn�t sound like a bad N64 or Two-tone keyboard sound. It seems to sense the action quite nicely and helps to raise that adrenaline and drive the player further into the world around them, while none of us actually run around in War with a ghetto-blaster playing one might imagine if we did, it would be playing something like this (Or the Spice Girls to scare away our enemies).
Ah the bane of any Military sim and most games, but BHD isn�t really a sim so we can forgive them for having some ropey AI both on the side of the enemy and allied forces. More often than not the AI gets into your line of fire and takes dumb risks where you�d really wished they�d not just stood there and let the terrorists or soldiers shoot them in the head. They have the worst aim in the game and this is really where the whole thing is let down. I�ve seen them empty three or four clips at the enemy and not hit a single one. DF games have never really been known for excellent AI so my advice would be to charge ahead and try and clear up before your buddies get to where you are.
Also watch out for the civilian AI, they have a habit of hurling large lumps of stone at your head because they�re not too happy to see troops marching around on their home soil. And while you might think you�re a liberating force, they won�t hesitate to bean you on the noggin with a piece of brick if they think they can get away with it. Another word of advice, don�t let them get killed either, you can fail a mission if you let too many die. (And that means: don�t shoot them in revenge)
But at least the enemy AI isn�t badly placed on the maps, I�m glad that the placement and level design actually lifts the whole bad AI experience up from the mire. This is the saving grace of the game alongside the other saving grace if you�re not on a 56k modem (If you don�t� mind lag and you are on 56k of course it�s ok).
There is no Co-op V AI MP in BHD its all team or Deathmatch orientated gametypes. But the massive maps and the online �Novaworld� servers make for a comprehensive MP game experience. Deathmatch and the normal CTF types are on offer, along with King of the Hill, Search and Destroy and Attack and Defend�the most popular are always the standard though, which seems to be a shame considering the new modes are quite cool. Most MP in other games are often frenetic affairs full of posturing and if you�re lucky to hit a good team, you can have a rewarding experience when you�re playing, but as in all things � this is highly dependent on if the server and players are ok or utter asshats. Thankfully I found some really good servers and a nice bunch of people. And the game experience was a good one � top marks to the server masters out there and the players themselves!

Dont you love it when Mod Devs tell people to delete all other mods, because one is conflicting with it. Then they say "All mods are deleted from my data folder". Then, they wise up and find a mod lingering. LoLz!
FYI they are going to do exactly as he said, all the factions previewed as of now (and the rest of EB1 factions) are all the factions that will be on the first release, the rest will be made into the mod on the other releases (i think 1 or 2 factions). The reason it will take a while is exactly because they care about the fans.... Better actually make a good complete mod than releasing it incomplete with bugs and low content.

Why in the holy @$#&ing hell did they split Rome into three ridiculous "factions" again? Just, WHY? Just for that I give them 2/10. Embarrasment. Shame.
"For most paranoia is but a form of madness. But for Kings it is the holiest wisdom. For when the whole world holds a knife to one's back, is it not wise to wonder who might strike first?"
Oh come on man, I've seen you post the same thing all over the forums when it is not even true. That said, Rome II is definitely proving to be not all it was worked up to be. Oh well, it wasn't a surprise to many.
My rig.
Ok, this thread is over.My list of most anticipated mods:
in R2 it is the same faction but you choose a family for different bonuses... >Better actually make a good complete mod than releasing it incomplete with bugs and low content. Sounds like R2
They didn't - there's only one Rome faction - there are three different noble or royal houses for every faction and which one you choose when starting a campaign gives different bonuses and penalties to things like diplomacy, cost of hiring mercenaries, income from farming etc.
The three Roman factions in the original RTW worked quite well in a lot of ways though - it meant they had more manpower than other factions (historically accurate due to their ally system and mass military service), it meant they were aggressively expansionist (again historically accurate) and it meant they actually carried out sea invasions e.g of Africa, which they never do under AI control in e.g Europa Barbarorum or Extended Realism (so again more historically accurate than the mods). There were a whole series of civil wars in the late Republic as well - and again the three factions for Rome represented that pretty well.
Unfortunately Rome II has so many bugs atm it's barely worth playing - and they've messed up Carthage with historically non-existent 'client state' Nova Carthago having some of it's territory (and some that should be neutral / rebel or held by minor factions) and Libya much of the rest. So far no-one's worked out how to mod province ownership to be able to issue provincial edicts, though we've worked out how to mod region ownership (regions in Rome II are what provinces were in Rome, while provinces are a grouping of 3 or 4 regions in which, if you control them all, each building in a region affects the whole province and you can issue provincial edicts to e.g increase tax revenue)
I'm starting to think the problem with Rome 2 at the momment is that it's still being patched and the current mods are still constantly being developed, once the patches stop and the mods start expanding things will get better.

Abstract: | Support, time and recovery (STR) workers are in the vanguard of the new frontline, non-professionally affiliated groups identified in the NHS Plan (Department of Health, 2000). Since 2003, the former changing workforce programme mental health team (now part of NIMHE's national workforce programme) have facilitated the implementation of this role across England, initially through a pilot project, then an accelerated development programme (ADP). It is this latter, ongoing, programme that forms the basis of this article. The authors refer to the challenge of establishing the STR worker role in a variety of statutory, non-statutory and independent service settings and achieving the Department of Health (DH) target of 3000 STR workers in post by December 2006. The collaborative implementation process is discussed and many issues such as performance management, measures, service user involvement, organisational (including human resources and occupational health) support, and education and training, are explored. Key learning from the process is identified, and consideration given to the future application of such a simple yet effective model for change. |

No specific platforms announced.When indie developer Mike Bithell was a kid he was obsessed with two things: Lego and Metal Gear Solid. In his second game, the follow-up to award-winning platformer, Thomas Was Alone, he has combined those passions into one extremely interesting package.
Due out in late 2014, Volume is a highly stylised 'medieval-inspired cyberpunk' stealth game set in a minimalist computerised environment. Bithell is giving nothing away about the setting or narrative at the moment, just that your character must navigate a series of tightly designed environments, avoiding armour-suited AR guards and using gadgets and scenic props to divert their attention.

Arts & Cultural Management
Shaping and Sustaining Thriving Cultures in the 21st Century
The mission of the Arts and Cultural Management ACM) graduate program is to build on Pratt Institute's international reputation for developing creative leaders. Our program mission is to develop leaders able to use their creativity strategically to foster creative expression, build creative community, and shape a commerce of ideas and images in an increasingly challenged and mediated world. The program is designed to emphasize the importance of cultivating creative capital by bridging the three C's of culture, community, and commerce. Participants actively examine how to use the creative arts to develop and sustain thriving cultures and to create prosperity. Typically those interested in arts and culture are not educated in the theory or provided with the tools, language, and experience necessary for administrative leadership. The ACM program was designed to provide these in a collaborative and applied learning environment. Participants are expected to explore the changing role of the cultural leader and the cultural institution and to develop competency in new media and methods that are transforming the way we communicate, engage, and transform.
Based in experiential learning, the program objective is to create a team based collaborative learning community that sharpens critical thinking, deepens reflective practice, and develops strategic leadership skills. Participants develop skill in strategy formulation and implementation, finance, marketing and law, innovation and decision making, operations planning, cultural programming, human resource management, and negotiation.
Program participants collaborate with faculty and each other to achieve the following outcomes:
- Apply theory to practice to develop and sustain thriving cultures and create prosperity.
- Demonstrate the power of collaborative practice to foster creative expression, build creative community and shape a commerce of ideas, artifacts, images, and experiences.
- Evidence the value of cultural leadership and the importance of cultural capital in shaping the 21st century.
Program participants achieve these outcomes by:
- Engaging in simulations and applied practice projects that test theory against the dynamic and evolving realities of a changing world.
- Working in teams to discover opportunities to use the arts to tackle "wicked problems" that require collaboration.
- Integrating and applying learning in strategy formulation and implementation, finance, marketing and law, innovation and decision making, operations planning, cultural programming, human resource management, and negotiation across practice projects.
- Designing applied research projects that deliver creative and strategic approaches to critical cultural challenges.
- Developing team charters and professional and personal development plans and engaging in ongoing peer coaching.
The ACM program prepares participants for a rapidly shifting cultural, economic and social environment, and political context. It was designed for those interested in using the creative arts strategically and creatively to develop thriving cultures by bridging the three C's of culture, community, and commerce.
The Program's Structure

Naruto wasn't talking about "not being able to beat sasuke"
I re=read the chapter again and re read Pain's fight. When naruto was asked why he couldn't beat a weakened sasuke he said "i couldn't defeat him"... However he didn;t mean literally in a fight Kish did a nice thing here..
Remember when Inocichi said what is there to talk about he killed our ppl and destroyed our village naruto said "so what shall i do?, kill everyone he knows and destroy his village. will that solve things"... This is what he meant why he can;t beat sasuke because HE CANNOT get through to sasuke like he did with pain. Naruto could have flattened him the past few chapters but in the end that won't be defeating he would just kill him and thats it his way of thinking would remain the same even as he died he'd still have hatred and hate everyone... Naruto did this with Pain he physically beat him and mentally as well with sasuke as madara said "it won't work" and naruto felt this too when he saw the vision he said we'll die together not together as in double ko.. Together meaning he'll kill sasuke and his view and naruto's own self his character will die with sasuke he would have failed to bring him back.. If he kills sasuke and makes him realize the wrong things and sasuke becomes good again even if he sasuke dies naruto would have not failed because he brought his friend back from the darkness.. Thats why when neji asked "what do you mean" naruto said i'll tell you when the time is right".. what is there to tell if he just said he couldn't beat sasuke back then... It doesn't matter if sasuke fans believe this cause this is the truth and i've seen many pp,l mention this too on another forum which is why i was prompted to re read a few arcs. I only got this after I read the Pain arc again and im 100% sure thats what it means, though it doesn't matter now since sasuke is stronger now with ems.. Naruto could have killed the weakened sasuke but he wouldn't defeat his way of thinking which is what naruto has been wanting to do since part 1. But like I said sasuke>naruto right now thanks to ems not confirmed but lol im pretty sure thats how it is. |

PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia Eagles have released veteran defensive tackles Cullen Jenkins and Mike Patterson.
Jenkins signed a five-year, $30 million contract with the Eagles in 2011 and started every game the last two seasons. He was due to make $5.5 million this season, but rebuilding Philadelphia cut the 32-year-old Jenkins on Monday.
After spending the first seven seasons of his NFL career with Green Bay, Jenkins left for Philadelphia. He had 5 1-2 sacks in 2011 and four in 2012.
"It's one of the most difficult parts of the job. He has been a very productive player in this league for a long time," Roseman said of Jenkins. "By releasing him at this point, it gives he and his agent more time to sign on with another team."
Patterson, the team's longest-tenured player, spent eight seasons with the Eagles. A first-round draft pick in 2005 out of Southern California, the 29-year-old Patterson played in 115 games with 99 starts. He made 551 tackles, 16 1-2 sacks, had four forced fumbles and seven fumble recoveries.
Most memorable was the Eagles' longest fumble return for a touchdown, a 98-yarder at San Francisco in 2006.
"It is never easy to say goodbye to a fan base that supported me no matter what," Patterson said. "My goal was to come to work every day to try and make the Philadelphia Eagles the best organization we could be. "
Patterson underwent brain surgery in January 2012, but returned to the Eagles for five games last season. He was diagnosed with a brain malformation in August 2012 after suffering a seizure during a training camp practice.
"Mike Patterson is one of the toughest players I have ever been around in the National Football League," said Roseman. "He has overcome many obstacles throughout his career and I have the upmost respect for him because of it."

Short Description for Now You See It Using cutting-edge research on the brain, Cathy N. Davidson shows how attention blindness has produced one of society's greatest challenges. While people acknowledge the great changes of the digital age, most still toil in schools and workplaces designed for the last century.

Full description for Now You See It
When Cathy Davidson and Duke University gave free iPods to every member of the incoming freshman class in 2003, they didn't expect the uproar that followed. Critics called it a waste: What educational value could a music player have for college kids? Yet by the end of the year, Duke students had found academic uses for the new devices in virtually every discipline. The iPod experiment proved to be a classic example of the power of disruption ? a way of refocusing attention to illuminate unseen possibilities. Using cutting-edge research on the brain, Davidson shows how the phenomenon of ?attention blindness? shapes our lives, and how it has led to one of the greatest problems of our historical moment: Although we blog, tweet, and text as if by instinct, far too many of us still toil in schools and workplaces designed for the last century, not the one we live in. To change this, we must ask ourselves critical questions: How can we redesign our schools to prepare our kids for the challenges they?ll face as adults? What will the workers and workplaces of the future look like? And how can we learn to adapt to life changes that seem almost too revolutionary to contemplate? Davidson takes us on a tour of the future of work and education, introducing us to visionaries whose groundbreaking ideas will soon affect us all. Now You See It opens a window onto the possibilities of a world in which the rigid ideas of the twentieth century have been wiped away and replaced with the flowing, collaborative spirit built into the very design of the Internet.

Your Christmas Tree
Quoting ChickenTheChina:
What color of tree? How tall? What color are your decorations? Post a pic if you have one.
Also, when do you put your tree up?
I usually do a green tree with burgandy or gold decorations, but last year we did a white tree with pink decorations because that's what our little girls wanted. This year I wanted to do a green tree with white or ivory decorations. I found some really cute white, feathery ornaments. BUT the girls want the pink tree again. We went ahead and put it up today.
I have a new tree this year and I am so excited. It is 7.5 ft with white lights. I use burgundy and gold plus all of my Hallmark ornaments that I have been collecting (my mom started the collection for me and gave them to me when I moved out). I have Hallmark ornaments from the 70s (when I was a kid) all the way to now. I love them. I am sewing a new tree skirt this year too. I am putting it up next weekend, I can't wait :)
I have a 7.5 foot green tree, pre-lit, white lights. Decorations are mostly red and gold. The tree is up already, but not decorated. I'm teaching the baby not to destroy it.
My tree is black, the ornaments are pink and teal. Haven't put it up yet. Will be doing that tomorrow night.
Already have a 6ft fiber optic in the mud room decorated by the kids with family ornaments passed down through the years & a star ontop.
