MSC coud have made this tool a bit more user friendly from my perspective. I've had it for a about a 6 weeks now, so here's what i learned. You've got to watch the MSC video to figure out how it works and even then NO one tells you that the slide is a locking mechnisium for the blade button (small one) which has teeth in it to lock the button down. With the tool flat on the desk you must first pull the small button UP BEFORE you slide it into place or you wiil break the small teeth out of your unit. This cutter MUST be used with a cutting pad! If you do it right it works perfect!
I used this tool for the first time this weekend. I created an 11" circle with ease! I had no trouble at all. I was able to easily center the tool and even use my scrap elsewhere.
The only con that I can think of is you need a mat that DOES NOT move and you should absolutely use removable tape to hold your paper in place.
I have tried using this product a number of times and have yet to make a perfect circle! By the time you make it around to where you started, the cut does not match up. I'm very careful not to move the base of it and it still does not match up. The last time I used it, it cut half the circle and just scratched the paper on the other half. After looking closely at the blade, I noticed it was bent and that's why it didn't cut the other half of the circle. I don't think I was applying an abnormal amount of pressure. You have to apply some pressure for the blade to cut the paper. Needless to say, I wouldn't recommend this product.

Areas of Expertise
ornithology, habitat conservationOverview
In general, Master's degrees granted by Biology departments are usually quite specialized in terms of their course and thesis requirements, and many people who graduate from such programs eventually go on to pursue a Ph.D. and jobs within the university research world. Specialization is emphasized; I left my doctoral program at UCLA being able to not only claim expertise as an ornithologist, but as an ornithologist who knew more about a single species of songbird than anyone else in the world. Then I spent the next 12 years learning things that my graduate training had never addressed, and which were critical if I was to function as an effective conservation biologist outside of academia.
I think of myself as a teacher, an ornithologist, and a conservation biologist, and my interaction with students at Antioch reflects all of these elements. I am strongly committed to excellence in science, and to helping people develop skills that will not only get them jobs but also equip them to positively contribute to specific conservation efforts at various scales. Mentoring relationships are a central part of my work in the ES Department, and much of the teaching that I do occurs in the context of one-on-one collaborative work.

ALBANY, N.Y. -- Before the Super Bowl, a big crowd caught the action at the Times Union Center. The Harlem Globetrotters were in town.
The world famous basketball team entertained fans with their blend of skill and showmanship.
Among the players for the Globetrotters, was former Siena star, Tay Fisher.
The Globetrotters first formed in the 1920's in Chicago, before moving to New York. Over the years, they've played more than 20,000 games, in 120 countries.

Mtgy. Residents Speak Out About Plight of Abandoned HomesResidents are speaking out about the plight of abandoned homes that fill their South Montgomery neighborhood. They say it's not only hurting their property value but attracting criminal activity. "I've called the city about them and complained, but it is still the same. It doesn't get any better," says Joyce Clayton. Clayton has lived on Japonica Street for 38 years. "This neighborhood has fallen down so bad in the past five years. It is awful," she says. Clayton lives next to two abandoned homes. She says it's become a target for "drugs. There's one house on this particular street that police have to go to regularly." But the abandoned homes next to Clayton's house aren't the only ones in the neighborhood. Alabama News Network counted 11 that are on and just off of Japonica Street. Wonder Thomas lives a few doors down from Clayton. Her house is next to four abandoned homes. Three of which she says went into foreclosure. "People go in them. They steal carpet and stuff like that. It's like making people want to break into our houses, because my house has been broken into," Thomas says. The neighborhood was rezoned two years ago, and now falls under City Councilman Arch Lee's district. "We will continue to look at it and do what we need to do," he says. Lee, who campaigned on fixing blight in the city, says he has not received a complaint from any resident on Japonica Street. "If we don't [receive complaints], we can't fix it. I mean we being a city as a whole," he says. "The biggest thing is for people to report it." If you would like to make a complaint about an abandoned home, you can dial 311, or (334) 240-INFO. |

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable John Cornyn
United States Senator Statement of Senator John Cornyn "Protecting Copyright and Innovation in a Post-Grokster World" Mr. Chairman, I want to thank you for holding this important hearing. Like the hearing you held last week regarding the recent Supreme Court decision, Kelo v. City of New London, this hearing focuses on the importance of protecting property rights. Only, this time, the property right does not involve a home - rather, it involves the property interest that artists and others have in copyrighted works. Unfortunately, every day, literally millions of dollars in copyrighted works are stolen via online services. This theft is no less wrong because it is carried out in cyberspace - rather, it is putting thousands of Americans out of work and is damaging one of the most important and vibrant sectors of the United States economy. There is nothing wrong with the development of new and innovative technologies. To be sure, peer-to-peer technology is here to stay, and we are all the better for it. However, it is important to set the record straight about what many of these companies have done - and continue to do today - with this technology. The Supreme Court - in a unanimous decision - made the following observations in the MGM v. Grokster opinion: ? "[B]ecause well over 100 million copies of the software in question are known to have been downloaded, and billions of files are shared across [respondents'] networks each month, the probable scope of copyright infringement is staggering." ? "Grokster and StreamCast are not, however, merely passive recipients of information about infringing use." ? "The record is replete with evidence that from the moment Grokster and StreamCast began to distribute their free software, each one clearly voiced the objective that recipients use it to download copyrighted works, and each took active steps to encourage infringement." ? "Three features of the evidence of intent are particularly notable. First, each of the respondents showed itself to be aiming to satisfy a known source of demand for copyright infringement, the market comprising former Napster users. Respondents' efforts to supply services to former Napster users indicate a principal, if not exclusive, intent to bring about infringement. Second, neither respondent attempted to develop filtering tools or other mechanisms to diminish the infringing activity using their software. While the Ninth Circuit treated that failure as irrelevant because respondents lacked an independent duty to monitor their users' activity, this evidence underscores their intentional facilitation of their users' infringement. Third, respondents make money by selling advertising space, then by directing ads to the screens of computers employing their software. The more their software is used, the more ads are sent out and the greater the advertising revenue." As we all know, the Court went on to hold Grokster and Streamcast liable for the resulting acts of infringement by end users - irrespective of the potential egitimate uses of their products. Time will tell how broadly the Court's decision will be interpreted and ultimately implemented. But the decision - at a minimum - recognizes and reinforces the importance of protecting intellectual property rights and makes clear that facilitation of copyright infringement will not be tolerated. We must continue to be vigilant in protecting these rights. I was pleased to join my colleague, Senator Feinstein, in the 108th Congress to introduce the Artists' Rights and Theft Prevention, or "ART," Act, which focused on the most egregious form of copyright piracy plaguing the entertainment industry - the piracy of film, movies, and other copyrighted materials before copyright owners have had the opportunity to market fully their products. With the help of Senators Hatch and Leahy, that bill became law earlier this year as part of the Family Entertainment and Copyright Act (FECA). I am also pleased to be working with the ranking member, Senator Leahy, and other colleagues on additional legislation that will protect against rampant counterfeiting that plagues the American public and American business today. I look forward to continuing to work together to address these and other serious problems involving intellectual property. In closing, as we consider additional legislative measures and as we observe the implications of the Court's ruling in MGM v. Grokster, we must ensure that the advent of the internet and the expansion of innovative technologies do not set aside the basic principles that theft is wrong... and that facilitation of theft is equally wrong. Mr. Chairman, thank you. |

Panthers head coach Ron Rivera said this week that Legedu Naanee is still his starter opposite Steve Smith at wide receiver, even though Brandon LaFell has significantly outproduced Naanee through two games. LaFell has been targeted by QB Cam Newton 10 times and has eight catches. Newton has targeted Naanee 12 times, but he has only three receptions. Unhappy with the group of receivers complementing Smith, the Panthers signed Naanee in early August, and he was awarded the starting job over LaFell. Naanee spent the past four seasons with the Chargers, for whom Rivera and offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski worked before coming to Carolina this year. Naanee's familiarity with the system helped give him an edge over LaFell, who was learning a new offense on the fly after the lockout-shortened offseason. LaFell has made some tough, impressive grabs in the early going, but we're told there's some frustration from the coaching staff that he doesn't make all the routine plays.

Abstract: Strain elastography (SE), which estimates tissue strain, is an adjunct to the conventional ultrasound B-mode examination. We present a short introduction to SE and its clinical use. Furthermore, we present an overview of the 10 largest studies performed on the diagnostic accuracy of SE in breast cancer diagnostics. Eight of 10 studies presented data for both SE and B-mode imaging. Seven studies showed better specificity and accuracy for SE than for B-mode imaging in breast cancer diagnosis. Four studies showed an increase in specificity and accuracy when combining B-mode imaging with SE. The ways of combining B-mode imaging with SE in the diagnosis of breast cancer differed between the five studies. We believe that further studies are needed to establish an optimal algorithm for the combination of B-mode ultrasound and SE in breast cancer.

Thomas Jefferson Used Encryption
by Wendy McElroy
The encryption of computer data is one of the most powerful tools individuals have to protect themselves against an intrusive state.
Encryption is the process of converting data into encoded text produced by an algorithm. To convert the encoded text back to its original form requires either a �key� or tremendous effort. A key is a sequence of numbers that senders typically offer to those they wish to decrypt the protected data. All others must use the �tremendous effort� option.
The state wants to be a universal key holder. Otherwise, people could transmit everything from love letters to financial data in a secure and private manner that escapes surveillance. The state argues that encryption offers new and unique protection for terrorists, tax evaders, drug dealers, pedophiles and other miscreants. And, so, new and unique measures must be taken to pull back the dangerous veil of cyber privacy.
Nonsense. Encryption is almost as old as communication itself. The root word �cryptography� comes from two ancient Greek words: �crypto� or �hidden�; and, �graphia� or �writing.� Encryption�s main purpose is to shield information from those who would use it in an unwanted manner.
Knowledge has always been power and those who seek power have always commanded or censored access to knowledge, depending on which action gave them advantage.
In America, the tug of war between privacy and forced access to encrypted data is as old as the nation�s formation. As always, forced access was executed by authorities against individuals.
In 1785, a resolution authorized the secretary of the Department of Foreign Affairs to open and inspect any mail that related to the safety and interests of the United States. The ensuing inspections caused prominent men, like George Washington, to complain of mail tampering. According to various historians, it also led James Madison, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe to correspond in code. That is, they encrypted their letters to preserve the privacy of their political discussions.
The need for Founding Fathers to encrypt their correspondence is high irony. The intrusive post office against which they rebelled had been established specifically to provide a free flow of political opinion. In the 1770′s, Sam Adams urged the 13 colonies to create an independent postal system because the existing post office, established by the British, acted as a barrier to the spread of rebellious sentiment. Dorothy Ganfield Fowler in her book Unmailable: Congress and the Post Office observed, �He [Adams] claimed the colonial post office was made use of for the purpose of stopping the �Channels of publick Intelligence and so in Effect of aiding the measures of Tyranny.��
Alas, the more government changes, the more oppression remains the same. Soon the Continental Congress itself wanted to declare some types of matter �unmailable� because their content were deemed dangerous. Anti-Federalist letters and periodicals became one of the first types of information to become de facto unmailable. (Anti-federalists resisted centralized government and rejected a Constitution without a Bill of Rights.) During the ratification debates on the Constitution, the Anti-Federalists were unable to circulate their material through the Federalist-controlled post office.
Throughout history, encryption and the control of information has been particularly important during times of war. Prior to and during the Civil War, for example, both the North and South banned just about everything deemed to be �seditious.� Private communication in America has never recovered. Recent history is rife with purely political postal measures such as the �Cunningham Amendment� (1962) which restricted the circulation of communist literature that originated in a foreign country.
The American government has always realized the political importance of controlling the flow of information. In the 1770s, communication occurred primarily through postal routes maintained by horseback riders. Today, we communicate through packets of data beamed across phone lines; the internet is the modern equivalent of the Pony Express. The difference in the transmission mode is irrelevant to the political principles involved. The key questions are, �who owns your personal information?� and �who has the right to access it?�
On May 6, 1999, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals offered answers. The court ruled that federal restrictions on encryption violate the First Amendment: specifically, they constitute prior restraint and may limit the freedom of the press (Daniel J. Bernstein v. US Department of Justice).
In the decision, Judge Betty Fletcher stated, �The availability and use of secure encryption may�reclaim some portion of the privacy we have lost. Government efforts to control encryption thus may well implicate not only the First Amendment rights�but also the constitutional rights of each of us as potential recipients of encryption�s bounty.�
Since then, the government has sidestepped the ruling, sometimes quietly, sometimes under the aegis of other laws. For example, the Clinton Administration required a one-time technical review of encryption software as a precondition to its export.
Such maneuvers are not a new response to a new threat. They are the same tactics of which George Washington complained, the same ones that drove Thomas Jefferson to use code.

'The state wants to be a universal key holder'
No they don't.
Where are you getting this garbage from ??
'For example, the Clinton Administration required a one-time technical review of encryption software as a precondition to its export.'
So what ? Besides, don't you think the commie-fascist Chinese should pay for their own encryption ?

Kyle Rankin is a systems architect; and the author of DevOps Troubleshooting, The Official Ubuntu Server Book, Knoppix Hacks, Knoppix Pocket Reference, Linux Multimedia Hacks, and Ubuntu Hacks.
Older Linux ext2/3 filesystem
I was able to virtualize two older RedHat system using this method though I did run into ext2/3 filesystem issues. One system was an old RedHat 5.2 (circa 1998). I was booting the VM with Knoppix V6.0 live CD and then creating the partitions and ext2 filesystem. After rsync'ing files I found I couldn't boot. This turned out to be ext2 filesystem features. The Knoppix OS created an ext2 with all the latest features but the old RedHat 5.2 predated many of these features so it didn't know how to handle them.
I rebuilt the ext2 FS with options to turn off just about every feature.
mkfs -t ext2 -O none -r0 -O ^dir_index /dev/sdxx
Then I was able to rsync and complete all steps ending with a bootable RedHat 5.2 guest VM
Thanks for the great article.
Ubuntu 8 2.6.24 kernel I had
Ubuntu 8 2.6.24 kernel
I had to use "mount --bind /dev /mnt/sda1"
then chroot /mnt/sda1
then mount /proc /proc -t proc
and used mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img
Filesystem has unsupported features
After migrating an old RedHat 9 server to VMWare using this howto, I got an error saying fsck.ext3: Filesystem has unsupported features.
I've posted a description on how to solve this issue on my blog: fsck: Filesystem has unsupported features.
I hope this might be helpful for people encountering the same issue.
I ran into problems because Knoppix mounted my root partition with the nodev
option, which made the grub-install
and mkinitrd
calls fail, because the devices were not accessible. I had to change the mount-options with mount -oremount,dev,setuid /dev/sda1
Furthermore I had a problem because /var
is on a different partition (/dev/sda3)in my setup. I had to unmount this partition before chroot
-ing and had to (re-)mount in the chroot
grub install issue
I'm having some issue with grub-install, mainly the fact that the system I'm virtualizing has a raid device for the hard drive. I've tried the grub install using some soft links to map the device names and the setup (hd0) command appears to complete but the virt-manager states the disk is not bootable
any suggestions
I had similar issues because
I had similar issues because my set up has a /boot partition:
/dev/sda1 -> /boot
/dev/sda2 -> /
/dev/sda3 -> (swap)
so chroot'ing into my root, /dev/sda2, won't exactly work right since /boot is not there. Here's what I did to get it to work, using manual grub instead of grub-install:
Before you chroot into anything (while in Knoppix shell):
$ grub
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> exit
The 1st line points root to my first partition (/dev/sda1)
2nd line sets it up. What this does is set up grub on the MBR of the virtual disk.
Then, to rebuild the initrd correctly, I had to do this:
$ umount /mnt/sda1
$ mount -o remount,dev /mnt/sda2
(assuming sda2 was already mounted)
This mount command helps eliminate /dev/null problems when using the mkinitrd command later.
$ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda2/boot
(This puts the boot partition into my sda2 root mount)
Now we can chroot:
$ chroot /dev/sda2
$ ls /boot
(should see the /boot partition stuff)
I had to add these to /etc/modprobe.conf in my install (I am using VMWare server 2.0.0 RC1):
alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase
alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptscsih
Now I rebuilt initrd:
Now we do the equivalent of this:
# mv /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.img /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.img.bak
# mkinitrd -v /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32-0.1.ELsmp.img 2.4.21-32-0.1.ELsmp
(Notice that the orig article was missing the .img in the second line)
(Also use the -v flag to see any useful errors)
I had one last problem - when I rebooted it complained the my e2fsck was too old and keep dumping me into repair mode. My install is a real old FC2, and when I used Knoppix to create the ext3 file systems, there are "new features" that the older e2fsck didn't support. So I followed these instructions and all is good:
Good luck everyone. Thank you for a great guide!
I had a problem...
Before the second and final rsync, I wanted to test if the machines goes alive, but when I do the chroot /mnt/sda, and then
# grub-install /dev/sda
it gives:
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/stage1: Not found
And tried:
fdisk -l (without result)
It seems that I can't have access to /var /usr /home which are other partitions
What I tried next, was to cp the files in /mnt/sda3 (/usr), to /mnt/sda1 (/) just the files in the corresponding /usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/
And the output of that command was:
/sbin/grub-install: line 501: uniq: command not found
/dev/sda: Not found or not a block device.
any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Even though
Even though the missing -H option, this is a great HOWTO, include I will be using this to migrate from one server to other and another, obviously I had never figure it out by myself... Thank you very much, And if possible, I would like to have your agreement to translate it, (and include fdisk steps) to Spanish.
rsync and hardlinks
the rsync options "-avx --numeric-ids --progress" IMHO doesn't include "-H" (hardlinks). So if a systems uses many hardlinks there will be many duplicated files.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Astor Courts Fails To Sell At Auction
In September we heard that the Astor Courts estate in Rhinebeck, New York, the property which hosted Chelsea Clinton's wedding, would be sold at auction. The was our estate of the day back in September 2009 and was listed for $12 million. Tranzon Asset Advisors, a national real estate auction firm, organized the auction in conjunction with H.H. Hill Realty Services of Rhinebeck, NY but the NY Post reports that the sealed-bid auction passed its October 14th deadline without yielding a buyer willing to pay above $7.5 million. The property is now back on the market with an $8.9 million list price.
The home was built at the turn of the century by John Jacob Astor, IV and his wife Ava. It was designed by Stanford White and was inspired by Louis XIV's Grand Trianon at Versailles, Astor Courts. The home was originally part of the Astor family's Ferncliff estate and Astor Courts (also known as the "Astor Casino" or "Ferncliff Casino") was designed as a guest lodge and sporting pavilion. The beautiful Beaux-Arts mansion was completed in 1904 and is on 50 acres. The expansive main living area has five bedrooms and spans over 15,000 square feet. The truly stunning details include the indoor clay tennis court topped with a glass ceiling and framed by Gothic arches and a white marble pool surrounded by arches and graced with a pale sky-blue ceiling.
In 1964 Brooke Astor gave the home to the Catholic Church. The current owners, real-estate developer Arthur Seelbinder and his wife, Kathleen Hammer, a former producer for Oxygen Media, bought the home in 2005 for $3.2 million and spent a fortune restoring it. Stanford White's great-grandson, Sam White led the restoration. The property is listed on the National Historic Register, and a Letter of Patent from New York State ensures access to the Hudson River in perpetuity and a Special Use Permit allows the property to be rented for corporate retreats, conferences and other functions.

Re: Stopping HbaseLars George 2012-06-22, 07:19
Hi Anand,
The stop-hbase.sh needs two things a) the list of hostnames in the conf/regionservers file and b) ssh access to all machines. The script then iterates over that list and sends the "hbase regionserver stop" command to each machine using ssh. In the past we had a shell command that could shutdown the cluster, but since there was an issue that "help shutdown" was actually running both command and stop the cluster, it was removed (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3249). You could add it back into your JRuby code - but that would mean patching your HBase instance. Another option is to write this as a separate JRuby script like so: include Java import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.HBaseConfiguration import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.HBaseAdmin puts 'Issuing shutdown command now (y|N)? ' userin = gets.chomp if userin == 'Y' or userin == 'y' conf = HBaseConfiguration.create() admin = HBaseAdmin.new(conf) admin.shutdown() puts 'Shutdown issued, command runs asynchronously.' else puts 'Aborting shutdown.' end puts 'Done.' Save this in a file called shutdown_cluster.rb and invoke it from the machine you have access to like so: $ bin/hbase org.jruby.Main shutdown_cluster.rb and follow the prompts. Godspeed :) Cheers, Lars On Jun 22, 2012, at 8:16 AM, AnandaVelMurugan Chandra Mohan wrote: > Hi, > > Can I stop Hbase from any node in the cluster?

I am preparting to install CS5 "Upgrade". In Adobe folder, CS4 programs are sitting there.
I do not want to instal CS5 programs in the same Adobe folder. So I plan to uninstall CS4.
Should I deactivate CS4 prior to its uninstallation? I assume that if CS4 is deactivated, I might encounter a problem with installing CS5 Upgrade.
Please comment. hummer
Use the Adobe Cleaner Tool to clean up your registry entries
Yes deactivate CS4 prior to install. Check this thread for more info.
Good Luck !
You don't need to uninstall or deactivate CS4 before installing CS5. The installer will make a separate folder. The two versions can live comfortably side by side, and you very well may regret dumping the older version if something in CS5 does not work as you expected and need to go back to CS4 for specific tasks.
>Yes deactivate CS4 prior to install. Check this
Yesterday, I deactivated CS4 and installed CS5 Master Collection with Acrobat.
This time, all were successfully installed.
When I checked Help file, I see "deactivate" menu.
I understood that "deactivate" means my CS5 is now activated and registered with Adobe.
Is that correct? Hummer
Even after activation you will have to register by creating Adobe ID as a new user wherin u have to furnish your datals and then enter Products for registration.Once the serial Number is regd aganist ur name your licence will be your asset and is again resaleble and Adobe will incorporate the transfer oflicence.

More than 48,200 people descended upon the City of Angels to attend the largest video game convention on the planet in early June! Dubbed E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo), this exclusive event is attended by video game industry professionals, investor analysts, various media and retailers from 102 different countries around the world. Although the main focus centers on video games, this show also features gaming peripherals, computer hardware and software, multimedia devices and cellphone technology.
If you're wondering what all the fuss is about, consider the fact that 58 percent of all Americans play video games and that each American household has an average of two gamers. When you add that 51 percent of U.S. households own a dedicated gaming console and that the average age of gamers is 30 years old, the result is an entertainment industry that has a nearly unlimited earning potential. But enough with the statistics. Let's get onto the highlights of the show!
Both Microsoft and Sony showcased their upcoming next-generation consoles to the delight of attendees. Microsoft's Xbox One comes with an advanced version of its motion-sensing Kinect technology as well as built-in DVR, and it will be released this November for $499. Sony's PlayStation 4 console is highlighted as a multimedia device with cloud technology that will be released this holiday season for $399.
• My favorite Xbox One exclusive title is the epic action game, "Ryse: Son of Rome." This gorgeous action-packed adventure puts players in control of a powerful ancient Roman soldier at the forefront of battle against legions of human and supernatural enemies. Free-flowing combos and brutal finishing moves plus the ability to create formations and command fellow soldiers round out the impressive features.
• Sony's Steampunk-inspired action-shooter, "The Order: 1886," gives players the opportunity to guide a mysterious character through an alternate version of Victorian England. With game play that focuses on the use of powerful futuristic weaponry against a deadly inhuman force, this title will surely offer players a decidedly different experience than modern military shooters.
• UbiSoft once again combines modern and ancient-era game play with "Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag" on modern and next-gen consoles. In addition to traditional stealth and action-oriented game play, it's possible to command a 17-century pirate ship to fight against and hijack other ships as well as attack forts and land bases.
• Square Enix also offers an excellent stealth experience with the re-imagining of the popular series, "Thief," for the PC and next-gen consoles. This open-world first person game lets players control a master brigand called Garrett as he investigates and disrupts corruption in a pre-industrial city. Among the highlights are a handy bow with multiple arrow attachments, advanced sneaking capabilities and various puzzles.
• Towering over the online competition was the ultra-stylish military shooter, "Titanfall," by Electronic Arts. This third-person action game puts players in command of a futuristic soldier who fights on foot and can also jump into a two-story tall mechanical beast to inflict massive damage on enemies! It's both visually and technologically impressive and will only be available on Xbox 360, Xbox One and the PS4.
• B.J. Blazkowicz is back and ready to destroy the Nazis in Bethesda's frantic first-person shooter, "Wolfenstein: The New Order" for next-gen consoles and the PC. Set in an alternate version of 1960s Europe where Germany won WWII, this game pits players against technologically-advanced robots and ubersoldiers with a wide variety of standard and futuristic weaponry.

Auburn coach Gene Chizik says center Reese Dismukes will play Saturday at Mississippi State. Chizik didn't say if he would reclaim his starting job.
The coach suspended Dismukes following the sophomore's arrest on a public intoxication charge, a week before the opener against Clemson.
The Lee County's sheriff's office said that the starter was released on a $300 bond. It did not offer further details.
Sophomore Tunde Fariyike started in Dismukes' place in the loss to Clemson.
Chizik says Dismukes has "done all we've asked him to do." He also says fullback Jay Prosch is back in school a day after his mother Iris, died following a battle with cancer.
Chizik says the funeral is scheduled for Thursday and Prosch plans to play Saturday at Mississippi State.

Participants said that overcrowding in local emergency psychiatric units, a lack of beds in acute-care facilities, and insufficient housing for patients in need of supervision or assistance are causing a crisis in the delivery of mental health care. These conditions have increasingly been leading to violence. The most recent incident of violence occurred on Sept. 6, when a registered nurse at ECMC suffered serious injury after being attacked by a patient. It was the fourth serious attack on a registered nurse at ECMC by a patient in less than a year.
"These tragic events make it clear that more attention must be paid to the process of providing behavioral health care," said Dennis Lindell, LBU chair. "Emergency psychiatric services must be better structured, coordinated, and supported – not only at ECMC, but at healthcare facilities throughout the state."
NYSNA has been meeting with nurses and the hospital administration over the past year, and continues to meet, to discuss necessary measures such as changes in the units' physical design, dedicated response teams, and specialized training – modifications the nurses have been seeking for years.
Participants called on elected public officials to provide not only financial support but to expedite state approval for requests for additional healthcare resources. They also pointed out the need to take a comprehensive look at the resources available in our communities and make better use of them. Additionally, participants said ongoing conversations need to include law enforcement, individual physicians, crisis services, and family counselors because each party plays an important role in providing effective and safe behavioral health care.
"It just doesn't make sense for one facility to eliminate beds while another nearby has patients waiting for placement," Lindell said. "This is why we have overcrowding and why, in turn, tensions rise to the level of violence."
