Martin County Commission: Bullies on the playground
By Post Staff
Whew. It had to be the shortest "fresh start" on record. Minutes after newly-elected Martin Commissioner Ed Fielding and re-elected third-termer Sarah Heard swore to "well and faithfully perform" their jobs, the commission majority let them know who's still boss.
Once again ignoring that Ms. Heard deserves a turn as commission chairman, Commissioner Patrick Hayes nominated Ed Ciampi for chairman and Ms. Heard for vice chairman. Ms. Heard, who has been down this road before, didn't put up a fight, and Mr. Fielding cast the only dissenting vote.
Those who hope being vice chairman leads to the chairman's job need only recall that Ms. Heard was vice chairman in 2003. The majority ignored her turn then and promoted former Commissioner Lee Weberman instead.
There's no such thing as fair play with this county commission majority. The bullies are running the playground and they want everyone to know it.
Mr. Ciampi did promise to treat Mr. Fielding with respect "even if we don't see eye to eye."
Later, Mr. Ciampi led a charge to remove the "acting" from County Administrator Taryn Kryzda's title and immediately negotiate a new contract with her.
Ms. Heard suggested the commission take more time and give Mr. Fielding a chance to get to know Ms. Kryzda before pushing the title change and contract. But Mr. Hayes and Mr. Ciampi made it clear that the majority will make Ms. Kryzda administrator. By Nov. 30. Ms. Kryzda has been the acting administrator since March of 2009. It's puzzling commissioners didn't promote her sooner. Tuesday's action seemed less about Ms. Kryzda's qualifications and more about posturing and muscle-flexing.
At first, the mood at the meeting was cordial, upbeat and hopeful, as the two conservation commissioners and the three who consistently vote for developments that fight the county's strict growth plan tried to be polite.
There was talk of a "fresh start." Ms. Heard told a joke that poked fun at politicians.
Chairman Doug Smith set the take-over tone by not allowing public comment before Mr. Hayes made his move to give Mr. Ciampi the top job.
Commission meetings aren't likely to get shorter. Mr. Fielding asked hard questions about changing routine procedures to put developer representatives on the record and applying rules equitably for people speaking to the commission. His detailed questions on county bond matters drew some uncomfortable admissions from finance experts about the county's investment risk factors.
Mr. Fielding also joined Ms. Heard to ask the county staff to stop putting big money items and controversial issues on the consent agenda, where commissioners vote once to approve many different propositions with no discussion.
Residents might want to comment on the millions of dollars spent, the agreements between the commission and outside agencies, the land development regulations and growth plan changes, Ms. Heard said. Mr. Fielding said residents don't have enough access to information on the items in advance of the commission meeting.
Considering both Ms. Heard's and Mr. Fielding's popularity with voters Nov. 2 — both won by wide margins— the majority might want to reconsider their bullying ways. Mr. Smith, Mr. Hayes and Mr. Ciampi all are up for reelection in 2012.
And, while Mr. Fielding and Ms. Heard don't have enough votes to control the commission, their questions at this first meeting show they're already adept at making the bullies squirm.

The Masquerade
The Murder
It's up to the guests of the masquerade to unravel the clues and crack the codes to determine the identity of the killer - but also decipher the reason WHY this seemingly innocent man was killed!
The Motive
Groups like The Antikythera Concern are investigating this enigmatic device, but progress is slow. Many theories have been formed to explain what the device does, and some extreme archaeologists and scientists believe that there is a missing tablet, a "Rosetta Stone" of sorts, that will be the key to deciphering the Antikythera Mechanism.

SB Nation's Georgia Tech blog, From The Rumble Seats, offers their take on Tuesday night's Orange Bowl against Iowa, with more preview-y goodness than you could imagine. But eventually, it will all come down to how well the Yellow Jackets can run the ball against the Hawkeye defense.
Iowa has struggled with teams that committed to the run. For all the accolades and awards won by the Iowa defense this season, they've faltered against teams that continued to pound the football. The three worst defensive efforts of the Hawkeyes were against Northwestern, Michigan, and Ohio State. The Hawkeyes gave up ~20 offensive points per game in those three games and had a 4 minute TOP disadvantage per game. The opposing offenses established the run and never stopped running as their OC's called in at least 45 run plays. In fact, those three teams' rush:pass ratio was 140:72 combined. The average yards/carry of the Buckeyes, Wolverines, and Wildcats was just short of 4 yards per carry.
If GT keeps up the season rate of ~4 rushing attempts per pass attempt and maintains the team average 5.32 yards/carry, I don't see GT losing. GT is 19-3 under CPJ when they've attempted at least 45 rushes (1-3 when they've failed to do so). The Hawkeyes will have to severely limit the dive and rocket sweeps and that will probably be the focus of Norm Parker's bowl practices. Another opponent of the Hawkeyes will be their incredibly inefficient offense with a stale QB at the helm.

A loud and proud step for a grass roots effort to bring a dog park to life happening these past couple of day.Clearing has begun for the Bryan County Bark Park. The county donated the land behind at the sports complex but it's been long fundraising campaign to turn the rugged terrain into something a terrier and it's owner can use.The weather hasn't helped either. Jane Honnor, owner of PawParazzi, and Vice President of the Bark Park says it's been a lot of behind the scenes work."Now the land's been cleared we're really happy that we can see and the community can see what we're doing, because before I think people were thinking, 'Well it's been a year and what have we done?' Now you can see what we've done." Said Honnor.Besides money, Chris Barfield of Barfield Brandon Enterprises, is donating his time and equipment. Barfield commented on a break from clearing, "It's worth the trouble. They're going to have a beautiful spot once it's done. We're going to leave a lot trees up, trails, ponds, it's gonna be a beautiful spot."Barfield Brandon Enterprises says his specialized equipment for the select clearing is perfect for the job at hand as opposed to just bulldozing all the trees. Plus, this Saturday, Interact Club from Richmond Hill High School is coming to help clear the land too.

About the Ticket Supplier: Angels BaseballThe Angels were founded by former actor Gene Autry in 1961 and played their first five seasons in Los Angeles. After the 1965 season the club moved to Anaheim and began playing in their new stadium.
In 1972 the Angels acquired right-handed pitcher Nolan Ryan from the New York Mets. In his eight seasons with the team, Ryan led the league in strikeouts seven times and in shutouts twice; he also threw four of his all-time-record seven no-hitters.
California won its first division title in 1979 under manager Jim Fregosi, a former Angels shortstop. Don Baylor, who led the league in runs batted in (RBIs) and runs scored that year, became the first designated hitter to be named the AL most valuable player (MVP).
Superstar outfielder and designated hitter Reggie Jackson joined the Angels in 1982 and led the league in home runs to power California to its second division championship.
Manager Gene Mauch guided the team to a 93-69 win-loss record before the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Angels in the AL Championship Series.
Mauch retired in 1983 but returned as manager two years later. In 1986 he directed the Angels to their third division crown with a team that featured veterans Jackson, third baseman Doug DeCinces, pitcher Don Sutton, and rookie first baseman Wally Joyner. The Angels again lost the AL Championship Series, this time to the Boston Red Sox.
The Angels came close to a division title in 1995, ending the season in a first-place tie with the Seattle Mariners, but they lost in a one-game playoff.
Their four decade long quest was finally realized when the Angels won the World Series in 2002, with a team led by former Dodgers catcher Mike Scioscia.

Teresa Vazquez wanted to exclusively breastfeed her son Marco, but doctors had her supplement with formula in the beginning because his blood sugar was low.
"I wanted to fully breastfeed but I knew it was the best thing for him."
Now a new study shows giving newborns small amounts of formula in the first days of life could actually help their mothers breastfeed longer. The research in the journal Pediatrics looked at 40 babies who were not gaining weight and found after three months, almost 80% of the babies who received formula were still breastfeeding.
"What this study was really looking at is there a role in having some very early limited use of formula in that population of babies as the mother is getting breastfeeding established," says Dr. Robert Riewarts.
Many new moms have concerns they are not producing enough milk in the beginning for their babies. Researchers hope this study will ease their worries.
But the authors of the study stress the point of their research is to keep moms breastfeeding "longer."
"Breastfeeding is more than just really excellent mother-baby bonding. There's incredible advantages in health."
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfeeding exclusively for the first 6 months.
Marco is now 7 months old and Teresa is still breastfeeding.
"You can see he's healthy.. (oh yeah) and happy now. (laughs) Look at his thighs."
Teresa breastfed her first son for 13 months she hopes to keep going for two years with Marco.
Studies show breastfed babies are less likely to have asthma, allergies, ear infections and respiratory infections.

Undergraduate & Graduate Program - Graduate Specializations in Women's Studies
The Interdisciplinary Graduate Specialization in Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGS) is designed to enhance the masters and doctoral programs at the University of Maine. These specializations provide another lens through which to view your chosen field, offering insights into how the social construction of gender has influenced the roles, contributions, and experience of women in many different cultures, now and in the past. This area of study will prepare students for careers in education at all levels, social service work, health services, business, public policy, government and nongovernmental organizations, and research.
Graduate work is offered through the WGS program, which also administers an undergraduate major and minor. Students can use the interdisciplinary graduate specializations to enhance masters and doctoral degrees offered by other departments such as Communication and Journalism, Education and Human Development, English, History, Nursing, Psychology, Theater and Social Work among others.
The courses can also provide a focus for the interdisciplinary Ph.D. degree program and for the Master of Arts in interdisciplinary Studies. An advisor who is a member of the graduate faculty, will assist each student in designing a program of study appropriate to her or his goals. Students and advisors will be matched both by areas of interest and expertise.
Requirements for Masters
Candidates for any masters degree and the certificate of advanced study in Education are required to take at least 9 credits including WGS 510 and another WGS course. The additional course(s) can be chosen, with the approval of the student's Women's Studies advisor, from WGS courses or departmental Women's Studies electives at the 400-level or above. At least 2 courses must be at the 500-level or above. If the student's degree program has no thesis or comprehensive exam, there will be some type of written evaluation of the work in Women's Studies.
Requirements for Ph.D.
Candidates for the Ph.D. are required to take at least 12 credits, including WGS 510 and WGS 520. The additional courses can be chosen, with the approval of the student's advisor, from WGS courses or departmental electives at the 400-level or above. WGS 580 is highly recommended.

I first saw the Costa Concordia glinting in the winter sun from 20,000 feet as my flight from London made a slow descent on its way to Rome's Fiumicino airport.
Still reeling from the Costa Concordia accident in January that left at least 30 passengers dead, two of the largest cruise ship industry organizations have announced new safety policies aimed at helping both passengers and rescuers during an emergency at sea.
CNN's Brian Todd reports on the plan to salvage the wrecked Costa Concordia cruise ship from off the coast of Italy.
Gloria Allred is now the attorney for one man accusing John Travolta of sexual harassment.
A cruise ship attendant claimed in a federal lawsuit that John Travolta sexually assaulted him during a Caribbean cruise in 2009, according to court documents filed last week.
A Disney cruise liner stopped to rescue four men signaling for help near Key West, Florida, a spokeswoman for the company said Tuesday.
An 18-year-old Panamanian fisherman who survived 28 days adrift at sea is suing Princess Cruise Lines, arguing that one of its cruise ship should have stopped and saved him.
Two Seattle women who were on board the cruise ship that ran aground and sank in Italy are speaking out. KOMO reports.
In the wake of the deadly Costa Concordia cruise ship accident off the coast of Italy in January, the cruise industry is implementing new safety standards.
An American cruise line has said it "deeply regrets" the deaths of two Panamanian fishermen amid claims that one of its cruise ships failed to help their stranded boat.
CNN's Rob Marciano looks at the safety drills and incentives cruise lines hope will bring passengers back on board.
Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas cruise ship has rescued 23 Cubans found floating in a boat, the cruise line said. The cruise ship was on a seven-night voyage from Port Everglades, Florida, to Cozumel, Mexico.
Engineers have restored propulsion power to a cruise ship carrying about 1,000 people after it was left adrift off Indonesia by an engine fire, cruise company Azamara Club Cruises said.

As I continue to discuss the duties and responsibilities of the sheriff, one group of officers provide an incredible amount of dedicated volunteer hours to our community, with minimal cost to the sheriff: The sheriff's reserve unit. Similar to a modern day sheriff's posse, sheriff reserve officers serve the department and community, conducting many of the tasks of a regular sheriff's deputy, all without a salary.
In fact, the reserves saved the sheriff's office more than $300,000 with 5,408 hours of volunteer service they provided in 2012. With an increasing number of calls-for-service for the sheriff's office, and a tight financial county budget, the reserves provide an invaluable service.
Currently, the sheriff's office has 21 reserve officers. Elkhart County is known as the first sheriff's reserve units in the state. Often viewed as a model for other units in the state, the sheriff's reserves are very professional and keep the standard high. Several reserve officers have received the president's volunteer service awards. My reserves are highly trained and provide eight hours or more of service every month.
Each reserve officer has the authority of a regular sheriff's deputy. Reserves offer their services in the areas of administration of the unit, the sheriff's dive team, crash investigation team and motorcycle unit; as field-training officers and police instructors, regular patrol duties, serving in the corrections facility, and assisting or coordinating special events. The largest special event is the traffic control and security assistance at the Elkhart County 4-H Fair.
The Reserve unit serves in more than normal and routine tasks of a sheriff. As sheriff, I can call the citizens of the county to aid in an emergency. The reserve unit allows for a highly trained "posse" to be ready and able to respond in a moment's notice to support my regular deputies, area police agencies and our community, regardless of the emergency.
I desire to continue the expansion of the reserve program. If you are at least 21 years of age (no upper age limit), a United States citizen, have a high school diploma or equivalent, a valid driver's license and reside in Elkhart County, you may be eligible to begin the selection process for becoming a reserve officer. The selection process involves a test of grammar, spelling, math and sentence structure, an in-person and home interview, financial assessment, physical fitness assessment, character background investigation and a drug screen. All equipment and training are provided to successful candidates.

Disney's The Little Mermaid Opens in Moscow Oct. 8
By Andrew Gans
The Little Mermaid, the musical version of the film of the same name that premiered on Broadway in January 2008, opens in Moscow Oct. 8. The opening coincides with the 175th anniversary of the first publication of the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale.
The first musical to play the newly renovated ROSSIA Theatre on Pushkin Square, the largest theatrical venue in Moscow, features a local, all-Russian cast.
The production utilizes a new version of the show. The family-friendly musical is helmed by a creative team that includes director Glenn Casale (Beauty and the Beast) and Tony-winning set and costume designer Bob Crowley (Tarzan, Mary Poppins, Aida), who join composer Alan Menken, lyricist Glenn Slater and book writer Doug Wright.
Stage Entertainment produces in collaboration with Disney Theatrical Productions.
Disney's lavish Broadway musical, The Little Mermaid, played its final performance at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre Aug. 30, 2009, following 50 previews and 685 performances. The stage version of the hit animated film borrowed Alan Menken and Howard Ashman's movie songs and added new songs by Menken and lyricist Glenn Slater. Opera director Francesca Zambello directed. Pulitzer Prize winner Doug Wright (I Am My Own Wife, Grey Gardens) wrote the book.
"In a magical kingdom beneath the sea," according to Mermaid production notes, "a beautiful young mermaid named Ariel longs to leave her ocean home to live in the world above. But first, she'll have to defy her father — the king of the sea — escape the clutches of an evil sea witch and convince a prince that she's the girl with the perfect voice." The musical is based on both the Disney animated film (written and directed by John Musker & Ron Clements) and the classic Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale.
Song titles include "Fathoms Below," "Daughters of Triton," "The World Above," "Human Stuff," "I Want the Good Times Back," "Part of Your World," "Storms at Sea," "She's in Love," "Her Voice," "Under the Sea," "Sweet Child," "Poor Unfortunate Souls," "Positoovity," "Beyond My Wildest Dreams," "Les Poissons," "One Step Closer," "Kiss the Girl," "If Only," "The Contest" and "Finale Ultimo."

With no Saturday opponent to preview, let's turn a wonky, stat-heavy gaze at the Missouri offense instead.
Mizzou's SEC initiation is complete. Now the second season begins. Hopefully the second season has a passing game that makes a little more sense.
It took some bad luck, some bad offense, and a couple of bombs to Chris Boyd for Mizzou to lose this game. But lose it, they did.
Mizzou should expect to beat Vanderbilt at home, but if the Tigers fall into too many passing downs and allow a big play or two, things could get incredibly dicey.
What mattered most in Mizzou's 21-16 win over UCF, and what the numbers can tell us about Mizzou moving forward.
To an extent, this game is weakness vs. strength and strength vs. weakness. Field position, passing downs and special teams could doom the Tigers, or trench warfare and a strong defensive line...
A look at the stats that mattered in Missouri's SEC road loss in Columbia, SC.
This will be an SEC football game, determined by defense, special teams and individual big plays. Mizzou's odds aren't fantastic, but again ... Carolina will make mistakes. They will leave the door...
Mizzou beat a good team with a backup quarterback, a backup running back (technically, if we're still counting Henry Josey as the starter), three backup offensive linemen and a backup linebacker....
There are plusses and minuses to the type of sellout (or near-sellout) crowd expected at Faurot Field tomorrow evening. In a game where the home team is either an underdog or a very, very close...

Backpacker Magazine – October 2011
Ten trails. Ten unmatched miles each. Get maximum bang for each boot step on hikes that our most-traveled contributors call their all-time favorites.
YES! I sadly live on the east coast now, and I always say the exact thing: too many trees! But no one ever agrees with me. Trees are nice, but there needs to be a changes to the scenery. Trees here, meadow there, rocks here, snow there. Variety. West is best. I've yet to make it out to Wyoming, but sounds like the place to be.
I just hikes it in Aug, awesome trail, but the Elliot river crossing is officialy closed, the high route mentioned is doable but hazardous, and at the White river the trail ends at a dropoff, you need to bushwack down hill about 150 feet, but the trail is not flagged. Still: awesome campsites, awesome views, and few hikers. definate 10.
Maybe a little dated. Along the east side of Mt. Hood the trail was wrecked by an avalanche several years ago and you will have to drop down very low or risk a high route to bypass it. Then, last summer, there was a large fire on the NNW side that burned a lot of the route.
This is not to say that it's still not a great trail, because it is. Just wanted to pass this on. Although the NNW side was closed as of the fall of 2011 and I don't know the plans for 2012.
I hiked through here a couple years ago and had an great time. We parked at Scales which is down a long bumpy dirt road. My pontiac Vibe barely made it through some parts. Got there at Midnight and hiked for hours under a full moon with no flashlight. The balds make for spectacular views. We only ran into people on the AT.

Showcase tread, I guess?
I think someone just wants to show off.I guess I certainly had that coming
Next thing you know we'll be whipping other things out and comparing them.Ahhh that explains why a thread like this hasn't been started before
What Pelican case is that? I'll post my case when I get home tonight (Pelican 1514).Its the 1610 with pick n pluck foam. Its pretty deep so if I get more lenses, I can rearrange them vertically to make more room.
This is not possible for me as all my gear is in a cupboard except when I go out shooting. Then I decide which bag(s), which kit.Before getting the pelican case, I used to keep my gears divided into multiple camera bags. The main reason for storing them here is to seal them against moisture. Since the pelican cases are watertight, I just throw in a couple of packets of desiccant Silica gels and I'm done.
As a testament to their durability, I have a picture of scavenged pieces of a plane wreck and the only thing that was fully intact, was a single Pelican case. I don't plan on falling out of the sky with mine any time soon, but it's nice to know I can drop it from a much safer distance without worry.
Ahhh that explains why a thread like this hasn't been started before [/font]
I remember that there is a thread like this. I also remember a reply of Neuro saying that if you want to see his gear, check it in his profile at TDP[/color]

hydraulic leak internal
Ok here is the story: I have a 154 with the early hyd valve. When the motor is running the mower cylinder extendeds even when the lever is in neutral. it seemes that the poppet in the valve is leaking by and not completely stopping the fluid flow to the cylinders. the other weird thing is that the 3 point won't lift unless I help it by hand. then it stays up but won't hold any weight. Any ideas do I need to get another valve or is there a kit
Re: hydraulic leak internal
Take the control valve apart. If the bore is in good condition - replace the seals.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: hydraulic leak internal
Ok what seals are there to replace?

I have never had palak paneer that was more white than green and resembled creamed spinach from Boston Market. It tasted about that way too, there was very little spice or flavor in the dish. The same was true of the vegetable curry. The mixed Indian appetizer was edible, and the naan was ok-- though chewy than I am accustomed. Safe to say I will not be ordering from here ever again.

I can't speak about the quality of the meat dishes, but the Chana Saag is excellent. I like the option of brown rice, and the Nan is well above average. I've ordered from here several times, and the food has always come as ordered and on time.

Not only is this the worst Indian food I have ever had in my entire life but an hour after eating it it made me sick. I had the mix grill and the lamb was as hard as a rock. With so many other Indian food places in the neighborhood why eat here.

I ordered my food over an hour ago. When I called the restaurant the girl who answered the phone heard my complaint and gave the phone to the chef?? He insisted that our food was in the oven and he needed another ten minutes?! I am honestly appalled by this absolute unprofessionalism. Never have I encountered this before. If they are so busy how was the chef able to answer the phone? Do yourself a favor - don't order from this restaurant. Ever.

By far the worst Indian food we've ever had. Everything tastes like left over from their lunch buffet. The chicken was rubbery, the cabbage was tasteless, the appetizers consists of mystery fried stuff that you can't even make out what it was. It was just a pile of brown food not to mention the delivery took close to an hour.

The food is very watery and the paneer tastes like hard rubber. One of the worst indian food experiences I have ever had in NYC. If you like curry that tastes like water and food that tastes like hard rubber, go for it. Else, I suggest staying steer clear!

The naan and the rice were excellent. The chicken vindaloo was sub-par. However, I am very picky about my chicken, but even a "normal" eater might be a bit grossed out. The chicken had a lot of gristle, and there was only a little bit of white meat that I could pick through and eat. Otherwise, the majority of the chicken got shoved to the side. I don't think I will be ordering from here again.

On March 20 former KPMG partner Scott London admitted to passing confidential inside information to his friend Bryan Shaw, who reportedly traded on that information, making over a million dollars. In my most recent "Injustice Department" column for Forbes.com, co-authored with my research assistants Juliana DeVries and Zachary Bloom, I explain how appalling violations of trust are nothing new to the KPMG leadership, considering their long-forgotten devil's deal with the U.S. Department of Justice back in 2004, whereby the firm "cooperated" with the government and threw its employees and clients under the bus. A culture of betrayal is made almost inevitable by the prosecutorial tactics of the DOJ, which turn colleague against colleague and company against employee on the basis of not-always-truthful testimony.
You canfind the column here, on my "Injustice Department" blog.
On July 30, I wrote a piece on my "Injustice Department" blog on Forbes.com discussing the narrow-mindedness of the Gibson Guitar Company CEO's claim in a Wall Street Journal op-ed that the United States Justice Department is waging a war against capitalism. It is a war, I suggested, against many sectors of civil society.

The CEO of OUYA discusses copycat products, curation, and why Android won't matter to OUYA buyers
Julie Uhrman is the founder and CEO of OUYA, and she's very much aware of my past skepticism of the product. "It's good to finally meet you!" she told me warmly as we sat down to chat. I've since talked to developers who are using real, working OUYA hardware, and I've seen her speak about her love of the television. I've thawed somewhat, but there are still challenges to what the company is trying to accomplish.
My first question is simple: Are they making money selling just the hardware? "We're really happy with the business model. We can make it work," Uhrman said politely, and then looked me in the eyes. I smiled. She smiled. It's clear I'm not going to get a breakdown on what her unit costs are, but I was curious about other aspects of the OUYA business.
The perils of being open
If the company isn't making money on selling just the hardware, and that's an open question, are they scared of gamers buying a unit only to root it and begin running a competing app store such as Google Play?
"I'm not scared of it. It's a possibility whether you say your box is rootable or not," she explained. "Typically when you make something a challenge, more people are willing to do it. But our box is going to be as secure as other Android devices, in fact we're putting in measures to make it more secure, to limit whatever you do to just your device. But ultimately to embrace being open, we have to be open. We hope our audience will support all the good aspects that it brings."
Their plans for curation of the app store are also unconventional. She claimed that it's not just a matter of quality, which is a subjective measure.
"We look at curation based on engagement. We don't believe that number of downloads, or the amount of dollars spent on the game, is actually a good indicator of whether or not it is a good game. What we think is an indicator of a good game are the metrics that signify engagment." So things like how many times a game is played, and for how long. How often you've told your friends about the game, how long the game lived on your system before you deleted it, and whether you downloaded it again. That's all well and good, but what about the first round of games that will be offered on the system?
"We have a lot of great gamers at the company, thankfully. We also have a lot of great friends. Ed Fries, Brian Fargo, Adam Saltsman, Zach Gage, Phil Fish… we have a number of close friends whose opinions I rely on. If they don't know it, they will soon," she said. "We plan on using them, and they've been incredibly supportive." I'm making a mental note to call Zach Gage and ask if he knows he'll be playing an important role in choosing what games are coming to the OUYA.
Selling the hardware in stores
The OUYA hardware will be in physical retail in June of this year, and I asked Uhrman if she thinks there needs to be education about Android. It's one thing to sell the hardware to readers of sites like this one, you guys know what you're in for. Will someone understand the product if they bought it at Target?
"The education process is about the great games that are on the OUYA. It's not about that it's being developed on Android. It's not about that it comes from a mobile developer. It's about the immersive, exciting, inventive game play of this particular game, or this new genre, or this new character," she said. "What is going to make people want to buy OUYA is the content that we have on the box."
That's a rather large bet, and it's placed on the quality of the software. That works if the system has enough games in its early launch, and the software is stable enough that so-called "mainstream" gamers feel comfortable putting their credit card information in to begin purchasing games. If the software is inviting and works well, who cares about the OS? People will simply enjoy hooking up the little system and playing some games. That's a rather big "if," however.
Roll your own
There is nothing proprietary about the OUYA's hardware. It uses existing parts, put together in expected ways, only with a form factor and controller that's designed to be used with the television. So what's stopping other companies from taking the idea and creating knock-off products?
Uhrman chuckled. "There's absolutely nothing that prevents somebody from creating the next OUYA. To be honest I'm shocked there aren't more out there!" she told the Report.
"What makes OUYA unique and what will make us successful is the relationship we've built with players and developers. It's about creating a great ecosystem. We want to be known as the most developer friendly platform. I think we've started the ball rolling and we want to keep doing that. There are already more powerful platforms out there… We're going to do everything we can to support developers to make them want to bring their games to OUYA," she continued.
This is another big risk. What OUYA offers that's unique right now is a well-known brand after the success of the Kickstarter campaign, and hardware that is actively being used by talented developers. Anyone can swoop in and try to take their crown with their own version of this hardware design, and in fact Uhrman has said that we can expect yearly hardware updates. That strategy works in the world of mobile devices, but every time a new version of the OUYA is released, consumers have a chance to take a look around and decide if they want another OUYA system, or if they want to go with a competitor.
And if the hardware is popular, there will be strong competitors, and not just from products like GameStick. An inexpensive, open platform that attaches to your television is an attractive idea for anyone from Apple to Google and everyone in between.
The challenges are real, but so are the opportunities
These are the challenges for the OUYA. The hardware is real. Developers seem excited. The price point is great. It will be in many big-name retail stores. Now it's a matter of delivering a digital storefront that's easy to use and stocked with great games and apps.
The challenge will be in keeping players inside the OUYA ecosystem, on a piece of hardware that makes it easy to leave for pirated apps or other app stores. While they're juggling these challenges, they also have to fight off the other companies who may only be waiting to see if the price point and form factor are attractive before moving in. None of these are easy challenges.
What's interesting is that the OUYA became a sensation due to the success the company found on Kickstarter. Uhrman claimed this approach validated the business model early on, and it allowed the audience to become part of the story. "It allowed us to talk directly to the audience, find out what they want, and build this dream together," she said. "I don't know where we'd be without Kickstarter, but I'm so thankful I don't have to think about it."

Vacancy was hardly on my radar at all before I enjoyed this brand-new theatrical trailer, and now it most certainly is. (It looks a bit like Identity, which is fine because that's a very cool movie.) Written by first-timer Mark Smith and directed by second-timer Nimrod Antal, Vacancy kinda looks like it could be a sleeper hit -- with the horror fans, anyway. Vacancy also looks like it'll have to take on a lot of competition when it opens on April 20; that's the day we're scheduled to receive Hot Fuzz, Pathfinder, Rogue, Severance, The Tripper, Kickin' It Old Skool, In the Land of Women and The Nanny Diaries.

Wyre Forest MP 'not complacent' on improved job figures
7:00am Saturday 25th January 2014 in News By William Tomaney, Reporter
WYRE Forest's MP has warned against complacency after figures revealed another fall in unemployment.
Numbers released on Wednesday by the Office for National Statistics show the number of people without a job and claiming Jobseekers' Allowance in the district fell by 41 last month (Dec 2013) to 1740 - 3.6 per cent of those in or looking for work.
It compares to a rate of 4.7 per cent in the West Midlands region and 3.8 per cent nationally. Year -n-year the number has fallen by 448 since December 2012.
Conservative MP Mark Garnier said: "Yet again we have seen another drop in the unemployment rate in Wyre Forest, highlighting improvements in our local economy. The Wyre Forest unemployment rate is consistently lower than the national rate and the West Midlands region.
"While this is encouraging, it does highlight the importance of local events such as the jobs fairs. While I am pleased this trend is continuing, I cannot be complacent, there is still more work to be done. I will continue to organise local events such as the jobs fair and the business forum, which is being held on February 28 to provide advice to small businesses vital to creating jobs."
National statistics showed the number of people in employment in December rose by 280,000 to 30.15 million and the number out of work in the three months to last November fell by 167,000 - the biggest drop since 1997.

Jobs are better than no jobs! This government is taking the lowest paid out of tax and plan to increase the minimum wage. Labour would introduce the living wage, which would just create more unemployment as companies lay off staff they can't afford to pay.
Labour need to face that their economic policy is in tatters. They abandoned a whole poor generation to a life on benefits whilst importing millions of people which drove down wages and put pressures on housing/NHS.
This government are investing in infrastructure, which grows the economy, creating real jobs so people who want to work hard and get on are incentivised to do so.
It's a long way to go, but the recovery is starting and Great Britain will be in a better place with less debt, better infrastructure and more manufacturing.

The poorer souls have had the Bedroom Tax inflicted upon them, designed to force them to move to smaller accommodation, when none is available.
What use is work, if it does not afford people a standard of living which includes: housing, clothing, food and heating?
As for immigration, we were quite happy during the Labour shortages of the 1990s to accept immigrants to do the menial and unskilled jobs that the indigenous population wouldn't do like: cleaning, care worker jobs and bar/restaurant work.
Strange that we are in a deficit and the government keeps subsidising private schools (mainly populated by rich kids)
Join the real Tory world JH, where people have to work to be poor! Today's teenagers will be the first generation since the 1870s to have lower living standards than their parents.
JH what we are going through is a mechanism to disconnect the economy form society. The economy gets richer and people get poorer. Sad that so many like you are swallowing the Tory poison.

"Jobs are better than no jobs"
Of course they are. One individual will be 100% happy to have their job, if it is security for them. My point is that Mark Garnier is taking advantage of media opportunity to cherry pick publicity. Gagging the facts. As a person who chooses not to place a 'X' next any candidate on the ballot paper, I do not find myself snookered by your criticism of the Labour Party. In addition, having experienced professional employment and ESA, I am capable of recognising political attempts to cover incapacity. Especially, in a week when the Health minister felt wise enough to plan to tell the doctors of the discovery that when we present ourselves to a physician, a person sits in front of them, not just body parts.

Poorer people ARE better off if they are working - the personal allowance has been raised, taking people out of tax all together.
There is no such thing as the bedroom tax - please stop calling it that. Why should the rest of us - many of whom do not have spare rooms ourselves, pay for other people to live in a house that is to big for them? The spare room subsidy has got to end.
You do not make the poor richer by making the rich poorer! If you want an economic recovery, you don't tax the people that generate the wealth of the country as you then have less money to spend on the poor. Labour would rather the poor were poorer just so the rich are poorer (although of course, most Liebour politicians are champagne socialists who are as rich as any Tories).
Regarding immigration, as far as I remember, coffee shops were staffed and the cabbages were picked before the influx. One difference was that youth unemployment was lower, fewer families lived on benefits and our services weren't being strecthed.
The government don't subsidise private schools! And private schools are not just populated by rich kids. Their parents work very hard and sacrifice a lot to send their kids to those schools. Why? Because there are no state grammar schools in Worcestershire, and they want their kids to have a decent education! Why do Labour/Torys not support Grammar schools? Probably because most of their politicians are now public school educated (or went to "comprehensives" which select via the back door e.g. CoE/ Catholic schools). Of course, Harriet Harperson sent her son to a GRAMMAR SCHOOL. What a hypocrite.
20+ years ago, the front bench of all parties mainly Grammar school educated so you had working class prime ministers such as Harold Wilson - who was WORKING CLASS, went to a GRAMMAR SCHOOL, went to OXFORD and became PM!
There's nothing wrong with upper class prime ministers such as Tony Blair, but it would be nice to see a mix. But that won't happen with comprehensive schools - were every child has a right to an equally bad education.

On the issue of the spare room subsidy, what is more disgraceful than a penalty tax aimed at gouging poor people from their homes, when alternatives (smaller accommodation) is not available. I have over £70,000 of equity and two spare rooms in my house, yet no-one is taxing my wealth and I'm getting richer and those living in council accommodation are being hammered. Inverse taxation! A real slap from a government that sees taxation as wrong! Evidence that the poor are not being removed from taxation.
I was educated at a comprehensive and my life blossomed as a result. It was very different to my forebears. My ancestors were coal miners. My parents left school (secondary modern) at 15 and my grandparents at 13. All straight down the mines. My own children were educated at local comprehensives, which are far from bad. My son is now working in business in London and my daughter hopes to soon attend the Royal Veterinary College in London. I am very grateful to the comprehensive system.
Private schools ARE subsidised by taxpayers, through charitable status tax relief. That's lost revenue to the government, made up by taxpayers. If private schools had to charge to cover their costs without the subsidy, (£1.4 billion since 1997 btw) many would just close, because parents would not be able to afford full market fees.
Nothing at all wrong with rich, successful people. they should pay their fair share and don't expect ordinary working folks and the poor to subsidise them.

SALISBURY, Md. - We now know the Wilmington man shot and killed Monday afternoon, in what began as a traffic stop on Route 13 and Philadelphia Ave in Salisbury, was in fact a wanted fugitive in the state of Delaware. Investigators will not release his name until next of kin are notified.
Maryland State Police investigators tell WMDT the 25 year-old from Wilmington was apparently wanted on handgun charges.
The search for the suspect began in the Wicomico County area after Maryland State Apprehension Team investigators were contacted by the Wilmington Police Department on January 30, 2014.
This afternoon, investigators reportedly tracked the fugitive to a home in Delmar, and witnessed the suspect apparently getting into a car with a female driver, headed southbound on Route 13.
It was around 4:30 Monday afternoon, when a Maryland State Trooper stopped the vehicle at the corner of Route 13 and Philadelphia Avenue in Salisbury, right in front of the clear channel building.
A preliminary investigation shows that Officer Milton Rodriguez, an 18-year-veteran of the Salisbury Police Department and a member of MSAT, came to assist the trooper on the scene, approaching the fugitive in the passenger side of the car.
When Officer Rodriguez reportedly asked the fugitive for his name, the suspect apparently put both hands in his jacket pockets.
The officer told him to remove his hands from his pockets, and that's when the fugitive refused and told the officer one of them was going to die.
It was at that time that the officer, in fear for his safety, reportedly pulled his weapon.
Investigators say multiple shots were heard fired, but they cannot confirm exactly who shot first, the passenger or the officers who conducted the traffic stop.
They also are not sure at this time if the passenger was wounded either by a self-inflicted gunshot or by the police officer.
Police found the fugitive had his hands clenched around revolvers in both jacket pockets.
He was also in possession of what police believe is cocaine.
Emergency medical personnel were summoned to the scene to treat the wounded man.
He was taken to Peninsula Regional Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead shortly after 7:30 p.m.
His body will be taken to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Baltimore for an autopsy.
The vehicle, we're told is a maroon Chevy Malibu, which is being analyzed by crime scene technicians, who are also collecting and processing evidence from the scene.
Police describe the scene Monday afternoon as chaotic, as investigators attempted to close off the area after the shooting.
We're told the perimeter closed off the northbound and southbound lanes of Route 13 from Naylor Street to Isabella.
We're told the officers involved were not injured.
The female driver also escaped without injury, and does not appear to be facing any charges.
We're told the two individuals were acquaintances.
Businesses in this area tell us they didn't hear any shots fired but they witnessed the unfolding investigation which cut off the area for hours.
Maryland State Police are in charge of this investigation.

text: That reminded me of Kate Winslet's "it's not a shampoo bottle now!" line - it seemed so calculated and phony. Winslet was another actress criticized for what some people perceived wanting the recognition she received a bit too much. I liked Anne Hathaway in the past, and felt she was underrated at times, but I felt she felt victim to "must have an Oscar" syndrome, which doesn't do anyone any good. Of course actors want recognition, but when they are too obvious about seeking it, it doesn't go over well. Valentino did screw up.
