I can say with confidence that I suck at these "Describe yourself" sections. I never know what to put. But, I will put some boring stuff about me.
I am currently employed at Gamestop, and I can honestly say that I enjoy working there. I know all the flak Gamestop gets from people, and I do not deny that the ways they do business are sometimes dumb. I have a second job as a cashier at a grocery store which is my primary job, so I do not really see any signs of Gamestop mistreating employees or the ways the nickel and dime them. I enjoy working there for the sole fact that I am surrounded by co-workers who are genuinely gamers and enjoy talking about games. I also relish the fact that I get to experience the people who come into the store. Except the assholes and scumbags who do sketchy trade-ins.
Currently, I am not as big of a gamer as I used to be. As mentioned above I have two jobs as well as being a full time student at college. Studying English and History leaves me with little free time for games with all the essays and reading I must do on a nightly basis. What I AM though, is what I guess is called an "industry specialist". I tend to enjoy the news of the gaming community and all the happenings within the gaming industry. I find it fascinating that after a near death of gaming altogether in the 1980s, that gaming made a strong and forceful comeback to become an industry that rivals the film and music business. I read blogs - like Destructoid and Kotaku to name some - on a regular basis, and I love hearing what is new in the business.
After I graduate, I hope to be a gaming journalist and eventually work for a gaming magazine or internet publication.
As a gamer, I rather enjoy RPGs and action games more than others. Give me a game with plot and well developed characters, and I will be happy for the next few hours. I hate sports games, but enjoy the occasional racer like Ridge Racer, Wipeout and Mario Kart.
Systems I currently own are; Xbox 360, PS1, PS2, PSP, Wii, NES, SNES, GB/GBC/GBA, DS, TurboGrafx16, TurboExpress, and Dreamcast. I am currently looking to buy a Sega Genesis and Saturn as well as looking into buying a PS3 sometime soon.
For the games themselves, I enjoy a number of titles and series. If it has Final Fantasy, Shin Megami Tensei or Legend of Zelda in the title, I will buy it the day it launches. For my favorite games themselves, my top five are (in no particular order):
1) Neutopia (TurboGrafx 16)
2) Fable 2 (Xbox 360)
3) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time (SNES)
4) Prince of Persia (Xbox 360)
5) Diablo 2 (PC)
While I tend to enjoy games with substance, I also yearn for the chance to play some mindless action games. Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai Squad on the Xbox360 is the first title that jumps to mind for stupid fun. But honestly? Who doesn't love boobs, zombies and blood to pass an hour at a time?
I do not know how often I will be able to update, but thank you for reading what I have to say. Any constructive criticism on my writing is appreciated!

RetroRedux: Doom
on 04.03.2009
With all the big name AAA title games coming out, there is a large part of me that still owes a sort of respect to the games of old. Without these, how else would I be the gamer I am today? In the next few entries, I will be chronicling the top five games that I remember fondly playing as a youngster. I am also interested in hearing what games you guys remember as a huge influence on what type of gamer you are today.
Let us rewind, shall we?
The first game I always remember when I think of this is the classic id Software shooter, Doom. Doom was the very first game I ever played as a little tyke, and when I was only around 5 years old. I have to admit, that for a first video game ever, the super violent shooter is a sort of...odd choice. But, I do not care.
It was a summer morning where I walked over to the computer and asked my father what he was doing. He looked at me surprised and said to me "Well, I am playing what is called a video game", and I inquired as to what a video game was (oh, childhood ignorance). I was intrigued, and I asked to play and try it out. He showed me the controls, and restarted the level for me. After I walked across the entry room and encountered and killed the first zombie; I was hooked.
There were so many things that kept me coming back to this game for many years after wards. At the time, the graphics were simply amazing and lifelike to me. The realistic lighting and shadows gave a very ominous and horror filled experience, and that fear of charging into a level with 10 pistol shells left was a very frightening experience. For a five year old, this was the equivalent of a really scary movie, but one we had more control of.
There was also the simple pleasure of taking a shotgun and running headfirst into a room crowded with Pinky Demons. Doom offered me that thrill and stress relief of just mindlessly killing hordes of zombies and hellbeasts. I remember fondly coming home after having a bad day at school, and booting up Doom and entering the famous "IDDQD" code for God-mode (as well as IDKFA for all guns and ammo)and just running through levels ending some zombies undead lives.
Now, the stuff I have mentioned is standard stuff for remembering games. The first time, the gameplay, etc. But, what really sticks this game in my mind is that I was able to share this experience with my father. From what I can remember, this was the first truly bonding experience we had. He stood behind me at the computer laughing as I gleefully shot down my first zombie, and poked fun at me for being scared of the imp on the ledge. We had out separate game files, and we would talk for hours about how to beat a level, or best way to take down a Baron of Hell while taking minimal damage. This was just one of those moments as a child that I remember connecting with a parent about something I feel strongly about and have an interest in, and that they themselves actually cared about. This is something, regrettably, that they don't share anymore. At least I had that two years to bond with them about video games, though.
Doom is still a game that I play quite frequently. On quiet moments here on campus, I boot up my old copy of the "Doom: Ultimate Collection" and squeeze out an "Ultra Violence" game, or when I am home I play the Xbox Live Arcade version and do some deathmatch action. Even after 10+, the game is still captivates and keeps me hooked.

Additional Information
Donor safety:
A history of stroke, subarachnoid haemorrhage, transient ischaemic attack/s or cerebral embolus puts a potential donor at increased risk of a further vascular incident affecting their brain. As donation can result in a drop in blood pressure, there is the possibility that this could lead to further problems. Although the level of risk will vary from person to person, it is not acceptable to put an individual at increased risk, for what could be a severe adverse event, to any unnecessary further risk.
Transient global amnesia is a temporary and isolated disorder of memory. Affected individuals are usually over 50 years of age and there is an association with migraine. There is no association with cerebrovascular disease.
Idiopathic or benign intracranial hypertension is a raised intracranial pressure where no mass or other disease is present. Blood donation does not pose a risk to a donor with a history of idiopathic intracranial hypertension once treated and while donor remains symptom free.
Recipient safety:
It is thought that degenerative brain disease in the form of vCJD has been transmitted by blood transfusion. Often the exact cause of a degenerative brain condition only becomes known after death. For this reason, when there is any doubt as to the underlying cause of a brain condition, it is considered safest not to accept a donation.
This is a requirement of the Blood Safety and Quality Regulations 2005.
Update Information
This entry was last updated in:
DSG-WB Edition 203, Release 10 Issue 01
Reason for Change
Additional advice for donors with a history of benign intracranial hypertension has been added.

Just been over to the shop this morning and got a very good deal on a new beretta and some pigeon shooting gear. The shop is superb and was very well stocked. I cannot beleive the vendetta against these lads by the pigeonwatch oddballs and Paul Harts only friend, Tam Paxman.
Have to say I left well please and was given a tour of the warehouse which at the time had at least 50-60 orders packed and ready to go at 11 this morning...hardly a sign of a 'dodgy' company!

Suresh Kalmadi's clout in IOA remains unchanged
Two years after CWG mess, Kalmadi's clout in Indian Olympic Association is nearly intact
2012-10-03 09:08:31
Couple of years after he was asked to step down as the chairman of the 2010 Commonwealth Games organising committee for suspected irregularities in the preparations for the mega event, Suresh Kalmadi still enjoys his clout in the Indian Olympic Association (IOA), of which he is technically the president despite having stepped aside.
Kalmadi, who ran the CWG Organising Committee as his personal fief and allegedly filled it with his cronies and people known or close to him. He was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on April 25, 2011 for alleged misappropriation of Rs 90 crores in the hiring of TSR (Timing, Scoring and Result) system for the Games, one of the two cases he was named an accused by the premier investigating agency.
After being released from jail in January, Kalmadi decided to step aside as the IOA president, asking senior vice-president Vijay Kumar Malhotra to continue as the acting-president, a role Malhotra had assumed after Kalmadi was arrested. Despite his self-imposed sabbatical from the IOA, Kalmadi, a Congress MP from Pune, still commands the loyalty of his fellow sports administrators.
So much so that Haryana's Abhay Chautala, the newly-elected chairman of the Indian Amateur Boxing Federation (IABF), will be Kalmadi's candidate in next month's IOA presidential elections.
An IOA source told IANS that Kalmadi will be backing Chautala for the president's post. "The government and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) doesn't want Kalmadi to continue in the IOA. Also Kalmadi has court cases against him in the CWG scam. Kalmadi knows that he cannot fight on two fronts.
He has vowed to clear his name and that is why he won't contest the elections this time and would back Chautala," the source said.
Backed by Kalmadi, Chautala will be taking on IOA secretary general Randhir Singh, who has been a fierce critic of Kalmadi.
The November 25 IOA election has attracted the attention of the IOC as well. To ensure that the elections are held in free and fair manner, the IOC will be sending two observers, including one from the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA).
But it is for a fact that even though Kalmadi is not contesting, he will play a major role behind the scenes.
Besides Kalmadi, his associates and senior OC officials TS Darbari, VK Verma, Lalit Bhanot, Jayachandran, along with four other persons and two companies are named in the timing equipment case. —

Ali Hayat: The Prosecution of Aaron Swartz: Sharing Knowledge Is a Greater Crime Than Bringing Down the Economy
Aaron Swartz is no longer among us though the contributions he made to promote free flow of information and knowledge sharing will continue to benefit our present and future generations. He was charged with 13 felony counts for downloading millions of academic articles from JSTOR and accused of intending to distribute these articles through file-sharing sites.
The manner in which Aaron had been prosecuted offers a sharp contrast to the manner in which our legal system dealt with corporate America after the 2008 financial crisis, where there were no prosecutions of top corporate figures. Sadly, the contrast highlights that trying to disseminate knowledge, quite literally by making academic journal articles available online, is a greater crime than bringing down the United States economy through "corporate mismanagement and heedless risk-taking."
Driven by a desire to make knowledge accessible Aaron has been attributed to author the "Guerilla Open Access Manifesto." Some key excerpts are as follow:
Providing scientific articles to those at elite universities in the First World, but not to children in the Global South? It's outrageous and unacceptable … Those with access to these resources — students, librarians, scientists — you have been given a privilege. You get to feed at this banquet of knowledge while the rest of the world is locked out. But you need not — indeed, morally, you cannot — keep this privilege for yourselves. You have a duty to share it with the world … It's called stealing or piracy, as if sharing a wealth of knowledge were the moral equivalent of plundering a ship and murdering its crew. But sharing isn't immoral — it's a moral imperative. Only those blinded by greed would refuse to let a friend make a copy … It's time to come into the light and, in the grand tradition of civil disobedience, declare our opposition to this private theft of public culture.
Aaron's untimely death has left us without a great mind and even more importantly a compassionate activist. While Aaron is irreplaceable, we must aspire to freely disseminate the moral imperative he advocated, in the very spirit that he himself would have done.

Blogs Liberty and Power Gratuitous Insults
Feb 16, 2005 1:24 pmGratuitous Insults
I'm afraid my reply to Kinsella here will get buried, so I'm linking to it here. I don't know what I did to deserve such insults, but I'm not about to let it slip without reply. I had heretofore been on good terms with Kinsella, so this comes out of left field. Or perhaps he'd care to retract them.
UPDATE: Stephan semi-apologizes, and I semi-accept, here, and below in comments.
UPDATE: Stephan apologizes, and I accept.
More Comments:
Stephan (K-dog) Kinsella - 7/14/2005
I did already post this-- but repeated:
AEON I APOLOGIZE! I did NOT mean to slam RP. I love it, and agree it's great. By "half-assed" I meant its website and that it is not online. That's all. It was a poor choice of words. I like you and Tibor.
Stephan (K-dog) Kinsella - 7/14/2005
Bill, I have published 3 articles in RP myself. I really used a poor choice of words! I have just been frustrated with its website. I wish its website were better so its nice archive of material would be more accessible to people.
Stephan (K-dog) Kinsella - 7/14/2005
Okay, Aeon, let me clearly make a FULL APOLOGY. I was explaining what i meant, not justifying it. I should not have called the website halfassed either. You are the one doing something, at least, i realize, and I am grateful for that. Sorry again. I know how it can be--I run Hoppe's and Walter Block's sites and they could be better, but like you, my skills and time are limited.
Stephan (K-dog) Kinsella - 7/14/2005
Call me or email me. I can help. The short answer: scan it, but you need to have Adobe Acrobat full version. I also have an easy, quick and dirty way for you, but email me I don't want to say it here. stephan -at- kinsellalaw dot com
Aeon J. Skoble - 2/16/2005
Ok, thanks.
Aeon J. Skoble - 2/16/2005
I replied here to your mea culpa:here.
If you'd like to atone, you can tell me how to make a pdf out of an existing document (I know how to make a pdf from a word file, but not from a piece of paper).
William Marina - 2/16/2005
Dear Aeon,
Having been called an "idiot" and a "liar" by that great fount of wisdom, Justin Raimondo, and having publsihed an essay in Reason Papers in 1975, which Kinsella considers a "half-assed" publication, I suppose, by association, I am a half-assed writer who contributed to creating that description.
What I have learned of late is that certain supposed libertarians lack a sense of civility in their discourse.
I wouldn't lose any sleep over it if i were you, but simply considder the sources.
Bill Marina
Gil Guillory - 2/16/2005

The 1st Silhouette picture I made was such a hit with the family that I had to make more. I cut these out of 1/8" birch plywood, with 1/4" birch background. The frames are made of mahogany and red oak, scrap laying around the shop. I used aniline dye for the silhouettes and backgrounds. The pictures measure approx, 12 1/2" X 10 1/2". I still have more to do. Nice to have a large family.

Interesting and Also great work. I just picked up Speilman's book on Scroll Saw Picture Frames and was starting to read it. When I have time I'll try some of these. Your work inspired me more. -- Just learning the craft my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ practiced. |

Nicely Done! I like the way you have colored the backing. Nice frames. I am a little reluctant to try oval frames. What process did you use? Did you use a jig? -- John, Colorado's (Wooden Wizard) |

They have made a complete mess of my store card a/c.. They failed to take a direct debit completely and for all I know my credit rating has been messed up. Tried to call Customer Non Service and gave up after 20 mins listening to music... And it auto system did not take my a/c details either.. kept saying it was wrong. Have now contacted Debenhams Head Office as I am a journo.What a shower of complete idiots. Avoid... Not worth the aggro even for the in store discounts.

I have been trying for a month to cancel this card, calling the card customer services phone number five times, each time to be fobbed off with some pathetic excuse as to why the card can't be closed. I have cancelled several other credit cards in the past and have not been met with any such excuses, so I know them to be untrue. The customer services team is absolutely appalling; they can barely speak or understand English, meaning that they often take down your security details incorrectly when I know them to be true. They refuse to put you through to a supervisor or manager, and today the automated option for cancelling cards would not even work - I received a message saying the caller had hung up!

In August I went into the local store to buy make up for my daughters birthday spending over £170. when paying the assistant asked if I wanted a store credit card which would save me around £20 I asked if the account would come at the end of the mouth as I am paid the last day of the month she said she couldn't say but as most people got paid at that time she would think so.It arrived third week of Sept and I paid in full posting it off as soon as I was paid with what I thought was two days grace and this mouth received a late payment of £12 pounds to which I thought was disgraceful and cost me instead of saving and I feel I was conned into.Hence the card is shredded and I won't use Debenhams again

stay away!!! absolutely awful management from santander!!!! i moved house, informed them of it. i never received any statements, instead after a few months, received phone calls saying i failed to pay. on checking they had the wrong house number down, but correct town etc, so the person who took the address change, noted incorrect house number. however, they insisted on minimum payment. i refused saying a) want a new statement for verification b) pay in full as if i do part payment, i get interest charge. c) rescind all late payment and interest. i was accused of giving them the wrong address firstly, then told if i want a new statement it's another 3 pounds!!! common sense does not exist in these thick people's heads. if you send it the wrong address is that my fault?????

Google Deprecates Translation API 95
from the no-api-for-you dept.
Somewhat misleading. Read Google's actual comments: http://www.google.com/webelements/#!/translate [google.com]
"For website translations, we encourage you to use the Google Translate Element."
http://www.google.com/webelements/#!/translate [google.com]
So its not really gone, just a new way to use it.
What they're doing with search APIs is instructive. Google closed down their SOAP search API years ago. They've deprecated their "AJAX search API" as well; that has two years of life left. There's still a search API for searching your own site: "Google Custom Search". But there's no API for searching other sites.
Translation is getting the same treatment. Translation will be available for your own site, but there will be no API for using it generally.
You can see where this is going. Any Google API which offers a generally useful service that's not tied to an ad-supported Google property will probably go away.
Some people only open up to tell you that they're closed.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Appendicular skeleton | |
Appendicular skeleton diagram | |
Latin | skeleton appendiculare |
Appendicular skeleton | |
Appendicular skeleton diagram | |
Latin | skeleton appendiculare |
The appendicular skeleton is composed of 126 bones in the human body. The word appendicular is the adjective of the noun appendage, which itself means a part that is joined to something larger. Functionally it is involved in locomotion (Lower limbs) of the axial skeleton and manipulation of objects in the environment (Upper limbs).
The appendicular skeleton forms during development from cartlilage, by the process of endochondral ossification.
The appendicular skeleton is divided into six major regions:
1) Pectoral Girdles (4 bones) - Left and right Clavicle (2) and Scapula (2).
2) Arm and Forearm (6 bones) - Left and right Humerus (2) (Arm), Ulna (2) and Radius (2) (Fore Arm).
3) Hands (54 bones) - Left and right Carpal (16) (wrist), Metacarpal (10), Proximal phalanges (10), Middle phalanges (8), distal phalanges (10).
4) Pelvis (2 bones) - Left and right os coxae (2) (ilium).
5) Thigh and leg (8 bones) - Femur (2) (thigh), Tibia (2), Patella (2) (knee), and Fibula (2) (leg).
6) Feet and ankles (52 bones) - Tarsals (14) (ankle), Metatarsals (10), Proximal phalanges (10), middle phalanges (8), distal phalanges (10).
It is important to realize that through anatomical variation it is common for the skeleton to have many extra bones (sutural bones in the skull, cervical ribs, lumbar ribs and even extra lumbar vertebrae)
The appendicular skeleton of 126 bones and the axial skeleton of 80 bones together form the complete skeleton of 206 bones in the human body. Unlike the axial skeleton, the appendicular skeleton is unfused. This allows for a much greater range of motion. [1]

Is there a way to insert multiple pages at once? Didn't see answer to this in Help.
Short answer = NO!
The easiest way is simply to select any page format, highlight that page in the Page Navigator, and then just use Ctrl-Shift-D.
Keep Ctrl-Shift on hold and just keep hitting D. That's how I do it, and it really doesn't take long to add as many pages in one go as you want…

National Wildlife Week Begins Tomorrow
The theme of this year's National Wildlife Week is "Branching Out," which puts a particular emphasis on the importance of trees to animals. Trees serve as protection, form habitats and provide food and other resources for animals and yet we don't always recognize just how significant a role they play for the creatures that live in and around them. With that in mind, the NWF has provided educators with some suggested lesson plans and other activities for helping to convey this important message to their students.
2013 also happens to be the 75th anniversary of National Wildlife Week and the NWF wanted to do something big to commemorate the occasion. So, in keeping with the theme, the organization is also hoping to plant 75,000 trees across the U.S. With that goal in mind, they've given us the tools to host a tree-planting event of our own or donate some cash to the cause. For every $10 that is given, the NWF will plant another tree near schools, parks or on other public lands across the country.
The National Wildlife Federation is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting wildlife and their habitats. By educating young people about the importance of this cause, they hope to create the next generation of conservationists that will help steward America's national resources throughout the 21st century and beyond. National Wildlife Week is one of their most important tools in helping to achieve that goal.
With spring just around the corner and much of the country on break this week, now is the perfect time to head outside and plant a tree.

Hahaha werster just got a shiny Pidgey in his run
, 24th February 2013 at 12:28 PM (620 Views)
6th run of the game. First wild shiny in a run (though he's started with two Totodiles in Gold before). He caught it because it works anyway in place of Kenya - unlike the Totodile instances because the animation wastes way too much time.
He proceeds to fuck up immediately by asking him mom to save his money. Has to quote unquote "call her back and tell her to fuck off".
EDIT: And he got bodied hard at the double battle before Ecruteak with the Clefables and Wigglytuffs, because he uses Kenya in that fight.

ø Ignore megamaniaLONESOLDIER aka Kerrick Estas
Kerrick is within his meditation room when a young initiate politely stops and waits for you. A minute later you stop mediatating. "Yes?"
"Master Tertas wishes to speak with you."
You agree and arrive at his private room. On his desk is a small scroll and the case that was within it. The case is blue and gold with red inscriptions on it. A purple five sided coin is next to it.
"I have been given a puzzle to solve young Ryst. And you are a piece of this puzzle."
Curious you enter the room and kneel before the desk politely.
"I have recieved a packet from House Orien this morning. It requests the aid of a student from our temple. In return, we will be given the Ten Coins of Wu Jen. To prove their point and sincerety, the individual presented this one coin as proof." He motions to the lone purple coin.
You recognize the coins as being a minor artifact. Though not created for your clan, its history has crossed the clan several times before. You know the master wants them.
"I ask you to go. I could send any student to fulfill this contract but I sense there is secrets here yet unraveled. You are my best student and thus the most able. Do as is asked of you but also learn more about the intentions of the client."
He waits to build drama.
"Go to the Central Plateau. Go to the home of Jaskin ir'DeMell. He is the son of the mayor of the city. Be careful and cautious. You enter the den of snakes. Report as you can. If you need aid you have but to ask."
You have a few hours before the meeting time, what would you like to do if anything?

A human child wearing the tunic of House Orien comes to you. "Are you Rashleigh d'Orloff?"
The child looks at his ring designed to detect lies for a limited time as you answer yes. The child smiles and hands you a small scroll caped in Blue and gold with red inscriptions. Curious you open it. A platinum piece falls out along with a piece of parchment. You eye the coin then begin to read the message.
Professor Ingrans has been polite enough to recommend you for a problem I am experienceing. I am close to locating a certain item of legend but require a cleric to support an explorative team. Please come by my home in the Central Plateau at noon today.
I am certain Professor Ingrans will allow this to be your graduation project to complete your intern time at the University.
Jaskin d'DeMell

ø Ignore megamaniaBRONT aka Vander d'Deneith
Vander is completeing some paperwork when there is a bit of ruckus outside his door. Without knocking, Brom, an older brother, barges in. "You have a message- take care of it!"
He steps aside. He is obviously angered by the determination of the small human child before him. The child steps into the room. He is obviously intimitated by Brom but determined to complete his duty. You admire that considering his age.
"Are you Vander d'Deneith?"
As you answer yes the child inspects his ring. You have heard rumors of these lie detection rings that are keyed to specific questions. The child hands you a small scroll case. It is finely crafted with masterwork caps made with bright blue and gold complimented with red inscriptions.
You hand the child a copper. He smiles and turns and leaves quickly. Brom scowls at the retreating child then looks to you. He is waiting impatiently for you to open the door.
"Could you close the door as you leave?"
"bah!" and he closes the door.
You look it over then note the sound of something inside. You carefully open it and spill out the contents onto your desk. A ring falls out along with a note. The ring is a simple cheap metal ring with an obsideon glass rough nugget fixed on it. You guess the street value to be measured with coppers (appr 19). Then you turn your attention to the note.
I would like to talk to you about the possible hireing of yourself for the protection of a group of experts. They will be traveling and require someone with diplomatic abilities and skills. I chose yorself for your skills and special abilities. I also chose you because of the ring.
The wearer of this ring was once a criminal that worked for a known criminal organzation. He was recently captured and interrogated by my staff. He has information concerning the death of your father. I would like to talk to you about this and not your brothers.
If you agree, I am sure I can arrange further aid to resolving the mystery of your father's murder.
Meet me at noon at my home in the Central Plateau. I am sure you can find it.
Jaskin ir'DeMell
He possibly knows something about the murder of your father. What does he know? There is only one way to know.
And the contact is the Mayor's son!

ø Ignore megamaniaMADMAXIM aka Spike
A warforged warrior stands on a bridge over looking the area known as High Walls in Sharn. He watches the Cryans mingle and gather in uncertainity. The war is over and they have lost their country yet still gather to show support and pride. Why have the warforged not done something like this?
When the war ended he and his fellow forged returned to the countries that they honored. In general, these same countries either caste them out or ignored them. He found himself with no purpose or meaning. He did not even have a country to remember and share pride with as these homeless have. He wandered and found himself in Sharn. He was hoping to find purpose. He was informed that he was forged in Sharn but House Cannith refuses to allow him to visit the labs.
Lost in the deep thoughts, the warforged nearly misses the approach of a large white owl. It flaps and hovers before dropping a scroll case to you. You fumble and bobble the case but do not drop it. The animal has left before you can ask anything of it.
The is finely made with a blue and gold caps. Red inscriptions are edtched into the caps. The writing are vaguely familiar to you but you can not decifer them. You open the case scratching it with your metal finger tips. Within it is a piece of paper and a roughly scribbled map. Stuck to it with red wax is a key with a blue crystal embedded in the narrow handle.
The paper reads-
I would like to employ you and your services for a journey my team of experts will be making this year. They will be traveling within the country of Breland then travel south to Xen'drik. I would offer you money but I understand you rarely care for it. I have sources that say you have asked to travel to the hidden Cannith Creation Foundry under Sharn. You have been either ignored or told no by the House. I have ways to bypass the house. This is a map and a key. I know where the lock is for the key and where this door is located. The secret passage leads to the Creation Foundry that birthed you. If you agree to this mission, please meet me at my home in Central Plateau. I am sure you can locate it.
Jaskin ir' DeMell
A mission. A purpose. A means to reach closure.
What would you like to do. The meeting is several hours away. You are uncertain where this person lives but recognize the area. It is the home of the biggest politicians of the city and their offices. DeMell sounds familiar.

ø Ignore megamaniaSamnell aka Clang
A warforged and a young girl walk through the hallways of the University.
"Thankyou for showing me the way to the office sir." shes says.
"Do you know what you deliver to him?" asks the forged.
"I am not allowed to know."
"Ah...I see."
The warforged was in the courtyard meditating when a young girl dressed in House Orien clothes approached him. She was looking for Prefessor Vel Bloomsdale. She had a package for him. Though you offered to deliver it for her she said no. She merely wanted instructions to his office. As his student, you were curious and decided to escort her to his room.
You enter the Morgrve Universities professor's wing and seek out your mentor. Professor Vel Bloomsdale. You enter his outer office and stare at the mess within. He still has not bothered it. Stacks of papers and tomes line the walls and overhang from the shelves and desks within the room.
You carefully turn and twist through the narrow maze of papers about psionic artifacts and the ancient peoples that created them.
You knock and a voice emits from within. "yes what is it?"
"Why didn't you say so Clang. Show him in."
"Her, sir."
"Yes yes. Show HER in. Have you finished filing the papers on the Dark Lens?"
"No sir. I will do that right now." You have no idea where those papers are. And even if you did, the shelves for them are buried.
The girl goes in and leaves within a minute. Your curiousity grows as you wait for the professor to call for you. He allows does.
"Clang! Clang when are you coming in?" You are are the door waiting and enter.
On top of his stacked tombs is an opened scroll case colored blue, gold with red. A paper sits under the case. The professor is using a moncle to look at a gem.
"The gem ...is true. Amazing."
He looks like a child on his birthday. "Clang...I have to ask you for a favor. A big favor....."
Later, you stand outside his office. The professor has been offered access to several psionic gems. He seems to understand what they are but can not explain it clearly. As always, he is lost.
The professor was asked to help study several psionic items. One was said to be a portal to somewhere unknown. You want to warn him but know it will do no good.
The professor, ever lost in tangants within his own mind (some say he is quite mad) has asked you to go to Central Plateau to speak with a Jasken Dwell (ir' DeMell) and help him in anyway you can. He suggests bringing your overnight pack.
You have several hours before the meeting. What do you want to do?

ø Ignore megamaniaJdvn1 aka Tamin Saphonbend
Sharn is NOT Talenta Plains. It is cold, artificial and smells. You have been here a few months and hate it. You are ready to leave anytime but feel obligated to stay.
Several months ago you were contacted and paid hansomely to travel to Sharn and show several professors in Morgrave University how the double scimitar is made and used. It was a spectacle. Worse- it was like the circus you visited. Only you were the clown that had to entertain the masses.
They wanted to have the elves come but they all refused. A few elves from Sharn were dressed up to be actors. House Jorasco was called in more than once. The clumsy idiots.
You duties have ended but the riches given were quickly spent. The city life is expensive!
You were asked by a small trade company to travel with them. They are goint near Talenta Plains. The pay is little but it was a source of companionship. Then came the human child.
She asked for your name and gave you a scroll case. You opened it finding a letter and a stamped Mithral medallion. On it is a horse with lots of hair or fire on its hooves. The back has etchings that mean nothing to you.
The letter reads-
I saw your show and respect your craft. I am sorry the professors do not. They mean well and have taught many here more about the cultures of the elves and the halflings. Whether it ment to be or happenstance, you were the talk of the show. Your skills impressed me and I took the time to get to know you.
My contacts learned much about you. They told me about an incident involving your family.
I am sorry to hear of your loss. However, I am aware of activities that took place within the plains then that may explain the events.
In either case, I am aware your show has ended and you may be looking for new work or adventure. I am seeking an item and need someone to watch over my team of experts. Would you have interest?
I can say little on the subject now but if you wish, meet me at my home in the Central Plateau. ask for me by name and the guards can direct you to my home.

ø Ignore BrontVander d'Deneith
Vander spends several minutes examining the ring and the note. The events of the past several years pouring though his mind. He smiles at the thought of his father and Garret, then pockets the ring and tucks the scroll and case away in his pack. "Looks like I should gather my things," he thinks to himself. "Wouldn't want to make a bad impression with the mayor's son."
Vander cleans up the paperwork he was working on, gathers his things, and heads off to the house smith to see if they have even started his request. His job working with the Finders guild and several miners in locating a large vein of mithril had brought the Defender's guild a good supply of mithril and the connections to get more at quite a bargain. His employers were impressed with his skill as a warrior and negotiator, and had told the Sharn guildmaster to make sure Vander got something special. Vander knew this, though he was sure few knew he did, and he had requested a suit of mithril full plate made. But he knew it was a game of politics, and he feared pulling too many strings might bring too much attention to him. He had made that request almost a year ago, and still nothing. He should know better than to trust Brom with making sure his request was done. This time he'd check himself.
As Vander walked the halls, he made a mental note of tings he wanted to do before the meeting.
- Make sure all his gear is gathered, and his horse will be ready to leave when he is needed
- Use his city connections to find out who else might have been invited to this meeting, and anything about them. (Gather Information)
- Check on his mithril full plate request personaly
- Make himself "presentable" to the mayor's son.
- Try to recall all that he knows about the mayor's son. (Knowledge: Nobility)

"Hmm... Very interesting." Spike reads the letter once more to make sure he didn't miss anything vital. Then he starts to wonder.
"How can this man possibly get me into House Cannith's headquarters...? He must wield quite a bit of political power in order to get me in. The name seems familiar somehow..."
Spike puts the map and the key in his belt pouch and starts making his way toward Central Plateau. Before he leaves he takes one last look at the Cyran refugees. He wonders if they feel they serve any purpose now that they cannot serve their country. Anyway, that's how he feels. He makes sure he has all his equipment and starts walking to Central Plateau.

text: According to the National Crime Prevention Council, nine out of ten murders involve a weapon, and eight out of ten involve a firearm. Most robberies involve the use of a weapon, most frequently, a handgun. One out of seven teens have reported carrying a weapon such as a bat, club, gun or knife at some time to protect themselves. Weapons can make violence more deadly & less personal. A gun in the home increases the likelihood of homicide by three times, and the likelihood of suicide by five times.

The air hose hisses like a cobra, like a fuse, slowly pressurizing the sleeping city. There's a gray GMC truck behind the empty garage, parked on buckled concrete in the alley, past the racks of car tires and hubcaps. The truck is rocking on its axles. Something's inside and wants to get out.
The tire mechanic unlatches the door and out tumbles a pit bull named Bo, who darts toward the darkness until his chain-link leash catches. There's a whole world of alley vermin to chase, but Bo settles for a seat next to his master, whom he loves.

A Conversation with J. Budziszewski on Natural Law and Natural Revelation
Posted By Justin Taylor On January 5, 2013 @ 1:13 pm In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
One of the most helpful writers on natural law today is J. Budziszewski (pronounced BOOjee SHEFski). His books on natural law include Written on the Heart: The Case for Natural Law [1] (InterVarsity, 1997), What We Can't Not Know: A Guide [2] (Spence, 2003), Natural Law for Lawyers [3] (Blackstone Fellowship, 2006), The Line Through the Heart: Natural Law as Fact, Theory, and Sign of Contradiction [4] (Intercollegiate Studies Institute Press, 2009). You don't have to agree with every jot and tittle to benefit from his work. (In my opinion, the most helpful introduction remains C. S. Lewis' Abolition of Man [5].)
Here is an hour-long conversation Budziszewski had with Doug Wilson on these issues:

Integrated online campaign for the launch of Windows Phone in India - Shortlisted in Goafest 2012.Microsoft was relaunching the much awaited Windows Phone with a new look, faster Internet, better apps and a whole new proposition - Put People First.
- The campaign featured a fully interactive video website, text ads on Facebook and other social media, banners on Facebook and bought media, and on cinema screens across India to drive traffic to the campaign website. Here's the case study as entered for Goafest (AAAI+Ad Club Bombay).The campaign website began with an intro film which concluded at the end of the user's journey. Combined, these two became a 90 second cinema commercial.
- The experience is live here.
