The hallways leading to the arena are very narrow, gothically stylised with dark walls and ledges adorned with flickering candles. Approaching the doors Death's reaper form momentarily appears, his large boney hands pushing up against the metal doors and forcing them open. Death's reaper form functions in the same way as War's Havoc form, but instead of being limited to combat Death is able to momentarily channel its energy during normal combat and in some cases traversal and puzzle-solving.
Our first puzzle is a simple one; a large statue in the middle of the room holds a lantern, its light is projected onto a generator above the door we entered through and on the other side our exit lacks the power to function. Death gets a grip on the statue and rotates it, shining the lantern's beam onto the generator pad, granting us access to the next room. A quick wall run later and we find ourselves in the coliseum. Time for some hacking and slashing.
Before we throw ourselves into combat the camera focuses in on the central element of the dungeon, an altar that is missing a horn. Obviously we'll have to recover it and replace it to summon the champion, but before that we've got a few waves of enemy grunts to cut through.
Death's weapons of choice might not be as intimidating as War's oversized blades but they're equally as deadly. He dual-wields two small scythes which deliver a flurry of damaging but lightning-fast combos. He can also combine the two together into one larger weapon and deliver heavy blows. The Ghost Hook adds an additional layer to the combat by letting Death pull in smaller targets and quickly close the gap against heavier enemies, giving combat a smooth flow.
Darksiders 2's shift towards role-playing driven mechanics over pure action is most evident in its combat. Each attack results in a corresponding number showing us how much damage we're inflicting and, as is par for the course, enemies drop tiered loot in the form of secondary weapons, chests, shoulder and body armour, gloves boots and talismans, which can be used to buff stats.
Along with the loot system Darksiders 2 also includes a full skill-tree mechanic where players spend points earned from combat learning new abilities. Vigil makes it clear that it isn't possible to purchase everything in a single play through, even if you grind and reach max level. This means strategy and planning is required to progress through the skill tree.
In order to be effective in combat it's important to creating a synergy between weapons, armour and abilities, all of which support the usual archetypes of magic, damage and ranged.
In our demo Death's secondary weapon is a comically large hammer, although it dishes out serious damage it's slow start-up animation leaves him vulnerable to enemy attacks. However, using an ability called 'Feast of Crows' we're able to unleash a number of pesky birds that, while won't do much damage, will keep the enemy tied up long enough for us to swing the hammer.
We make our way across the coliseum and to the other end of the dungeon battling our way through pockets of enemies and locating the missing horn. Death momentarily channels his reaper form, which grabs hold of the horn and drags it back to whatever dimension he's holed up in when not doing Death's bidding.
Back-tracking to the main area of the dungeon we replace the horn and the champion, a snake type creature that burrows underneath the surface, shows itself.
It quickly moves around the arena, flanking Death and attacking before retreating underground. Death's combat style is much more offensive than War's and relies on speed. As a result Death doesn't have a block move and instead possesses a wide range of tools that let him quickly dodge and exploit the enemies weakness.
In this mini-boss battle we take the patient approach, waiting for the snake to taunt Death and striking before he's able to retreat. Eventually the beast transforms into a golem, with a body formed out of the bones of fallen warriors. His movement may be slower in his form but he is able to pull off his head and spine to use the snake form as a flail for long-range damage.

The Soddy Daisy business district will be getting an additional lane and two revamped intersections. Commissioners Thursday night, signed off on a design for the project that affects Dayton Pike where it runs between Walmart on one side and Zaxby's and Taco Bell on the other. A turn lane and traffic signal will be added at the north entrance that accesses the two restaurants.
The traffic signal will be added to the plan at the city's expense for a cost of $190,000. The Southern entrance that is currently blocked will be permanently closed. The remaining intersection of the north entrance will be left as is, with full access, but the cost will also be figured with islands that would direct the traffic right in and right out. Having both cost estimates will help commissioners decide which option to use. Changes can be made until construction begins. The entrance opposite the one under discussion that leads into Walmart will remain unchanged.
Commissioners voted to begin the process of acquisition for the temporary easements that are needed for the road, using city funds because the project would be delayed another six months if the request goes back to TDOT asking for more funding.
A public hearing will be held concerning this road work at a time to be determined.
The commissioners approved the engineering firm Wiser based in Nashville for this road work on City Manager Hardie Stulce's recommendation. It is estimated that the engineering plan will be ready in three-four weeks and the city will be ready to make the acquisitions in three-four months.
Mr. Stulce also reported to the commissioners that the city is preparing to apply for a Community Development Block Grant of $200,000 to build a new fire hall on the south end of the city, replacing the number 3 hall. The city manager also recommended using the architectural firm of Brewer, Ingram and Fuller from Knoxville for the design work that must be done before the deadline of Feb. 25, when the grant request must be submitted. Chief Guffey and representatives from the fire department have all been included in determining the needs for this station.
Also, Fire Chief Mike Guffey came to the commissioners requesting the purchase of a heavy duty rescue truck for the department that he said has been located. He was given approval to travel and inspect the vehicle, and was authorized to spend up to $50,000 for the truck that comes with equipment. Mayor Janice Cagle suggested keeping the old truck and equipment since the city is growing.
It has come to the attention of the city manager that during two periods of extended military leave for Police Chief Phillip Hamrick, retirement benefits were not paid. Mr. Stulce asked the commissioners for a voucher approval of around $4,000 to make up this void, which was unanimously approved.
Statistics of general interest to the city have been compiled by Mr. Stulce. Last year, 14,789 documented calls came in for the Police Department and 992 for the fire department. A total of 81,704 calls came through the dispatch center, it was stated. Chief Hamrick said the Soddy Daisy police department has a case clearance rate of 70 percent - much higher than that of the surrounding municipalities which is one of the reasons that there has been a 30 percent reduction of reported crimes during the last five years in Soddy Daisy.
Mayor Cagle also re-appointed Commissioner Jim Adams to be Soddy Daisy's representative to the Hamilton County Water and Wastewater Treatment Authority (WWTA). He is willing to serve another term, is familiar with the organization and has done a good job, she said.
Trophies were handed out at the meeting for winners of the Soddy Daisy Christmas parade which was said to be the biggest yet with beautiful floats. The winner in the "church" category was Stuart Heights Baptist Church, and in the "organization" category, the winner was the Middle Valley cheerleaders. The Sale Creek cheerleaders won for the "school", Mark's Toys was the "business" winner and the "judge's choice" went to Thunder Ridge Raceway.
The commissioners presented a proclamation to the local Bi-Lo grocery store. This was to honor the business as a leader in the community for its support and contributions to the Soddy Daisy food bank. In the past year, donations of 120,000 pounds of food were made. At the meeting Thursday night, a donation of $10,000 was made to the same organization by a representative from Bi-Lo.

The current trend of mobile gambling shows an exponential growth rate, as predicted by recent studies. At this rate, mobile gambling apps will take over as the predominant catalyst for gamblers worldwide, expedited by developers of mobile gambling apps for the Apple iOS and Android smartphones.
SCRANTON, PA, Nov. 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - The idea of placing wagers over the internet is certainly nothing new, nor is placing bets on a hand-held, internet capable device. Mobile gambling has been a developing trend for many years now. Unfortunately, due to unreliable networks and expensive data plans, the makers of these apps did not realize the potential growth they had hoped for in the early days of development.
Due to recent innovations in all facets of the mobile gambling industry, ranging from upgrades applications and operating systems to mobile providers bestowing more generous data plans, a swell of new internet gamblers has appeared. The majority of the global civilized population is now equipped with an internet capable hand-held device that can stream mobile gambling apps with alacrity; the most popular being Android and Apple iOS powered devices.
The download rate of apps in the gaming genre has increased at an exponential rate, and there is mounting evidence to prove it. As a leading developer of mobile gaming in all genres, Paddy Power's COO revealed in 2011 that 55% of its active members owned a Smartphone, and that 1/3 of their clientele had begun using the brand's mobile gambling apps. From 2010 to 2011, participation in mobile gambling had risen 300%.
According to the company's 2012 interim reports, in the first half of 2012 alone, across its UK-based mobile casino, games and sportsbook, Paddy Power has seen increases across the boards ranging from 5-20%, with the mobile casino rating the highest in player turnover. In Australia, Paddy Power's mobile betting saw an increase of 123%. Other major operators in the online and mobile gambling industry are reporting similar results.
Those statistics fall directly in line with the results of a study published by the diagnostics team at Juniper Research in May. According to the report, mobile gambling netted $20 billion in revenue in 2011, and is projected to increase five times over in the next five years. The study pointed out that while sports betting dominated the negligible mobile gambling industry in previous years, the advancement of Smartphone technology and mobile applications would result in an intense spike of mobile casino gaming, predicting global revenue of $100 billion from mobile gambling by 2017.
All of the combined studies, marketing research and data are pointing in the same direction; gambling at mobile casinos will be the dominant future of wagering around the world.

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

World Bulletin/News Desk
A Vatican court convicted Pope Benedict's former butler of stealing sensitive documents and sentenced him to 18 months in prison on Saturday, at the end of one of the most sensational trials in the recent history of the Holy See.
A Vatican spokesman said the pope, who reigns as a supreme monarch in the world's smallest city-state, would "most likely" pardon Paolo Gabriele, which would mean he would not have to serve his sentence.
Paolo Gabriele, Pope Benedict's former butler convicted of stealing sensitive documents, will serve his sentence under house arrest in his Vatican apartment while awaiting a possible papal pardon, his lawyer said.
The court delivered its verdict after two hours of deliberations and closing arguments by the prosecution and the defence.
Gabriele had admitted being the source of leaks of highly sensitive papers, including letters to the pope that alleged corruption in the Vatican's business dealings.
"What I feel most strongly inside myself is the conviction that I acted exclusively out of love, I would say a visceral love, for the Church of Christ and its visible representative," he said in an impassive voice during a final appeal to the court.
"If I have to repeat it, I am not a thief," he added.
The prosecution had asked for a three-year sentence while the defence asked the court to reduce the charges from aggravated theft to misappropriation and for him to be freed.
The head of the three-judge panel, wearing a black robe with gold tassels, read the verdict with the opening words: "In the name of Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, gloriously reigning, the court has invoked the Holy Trinity and has reached its sentence."
The judge said he had given Gabriele a lighter sentence because he had no previous criminal record. Gabriele's lawyer and the Vatican spokesman said the former butler would be returned to house arrest in the Vatican for the time being.
The lawyer said she would decide after reading the court's formal explanation of its verdict whether to file an appeal.
The trial, which started last Saturday, threw open the window on a betrayal of trust and sensitive secrets in the Vatican.
A former member of the small, select group known as "the papal family", Gabriele was one of fewer than 10 people who had a key to an elevator leading directly to the pope's apartments.
In the course of the trial, intimate details emerged of the inner workings of an institution long renowned for its secrecy.
The documents Gabriele leaked constituted one of the biggest crises of Pope Benedict's papacy when they emerged in a muckraking expose by an Italian journalist earlier this year.
The case has been an embarrassment for the Vatican, coming at a time when it was keen to rid itself from the taint left by a series of scandals involving sexual abuse of minors by clerics around the world and mismanagement at its bank.
Gabriele told investigators before the trial began that he leaked the documents because he saw "evil and corruption everywhere in the Church" and that information was being hidden from the pope.
Earlier this week Gabriele accused the Holy See's police of mistreating him while in custody. Members of the force in turn depicted the butler as a man obsessed with the occult, Masonic lodges and secret services.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has swapped the venues for the 4th and 5th ODIs during the upcoming series against England. Keeping the cold conditions in North India in mind, the BCCI has swapped the games in Dharamshala and Mohali. Mohali, which was to host the final ODI will now host the 4th match. The match will remain as a D/N affair but the timings has been advanced from 2:30 PM IST to 12 noon IST. Dharamshala will now host the final ODI. The D/N match has been rescheduled as a 'day' match. Revised schedule January 11: 1st ODI, Rajkot (d/n) January 15: 2nd ODI, Kochi (d/n) January 19: 3rd ODI, Ranchi (d/n) January 23: 4th ODI, Mohali January 27: 5th ODI, Dharamsala Another change in the scheme of things for England was the shifting of the practice venue in Mumbai. While the English players were willing to practice at the Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) Cricket ground, the original practice venue, the MCA requested that the venue be shifted to the DY Patil Cricket Stadium. That request has already been approved by the BCCI. A request to shift the venue from BKC to DY Patil had been made by the MCA citing security reasons and that at first was rejected by the BCCI. The MCA President, Ravi Savant then held a meeting with the BCCI chief N.Srinivasan who, within minutes, approved of the change. That, after the Mumbai Police as well as the England board had some reservations about the orignal venue.

Webber tips Ricciardo to do well against Vettel
Mark Webber expects his replacement at Red Bull, countryman Daniel Ricciardo, to put up a competitive defense alongside Sebastian Vettel this year. By the end of the tense Webber-Vettel pairing, the duo were barely on speaking terms while Vettel was at the top of his game, winning a fourth consecutive championship in dominant style. Australian Webber, who has switched to Le Mans with Porsche, managed to outqualify Vettel only twice in 2013, but the 37-year-old thinks Ricciardo will put up a stout effort this season. "He'll go well," Webber told the March issue of Motor Sport magazine. "I think he'll give Seb a real hard time in qualifying -- it'll be 50:50 in the first year,...

Lamb Of God - In Defense Of Our Good Name Lyrics
Lamb Of God – In Defense Of Our Good Name Lyrics
Returning to solace
So sweet like honeysuckle on the tongue
The sound of silence blesses my ears
Enveloping like the earth I will one day lie in
Metropolis is bad to wither the soul
Roaring concrete and steel washes you in blood.
So let you point and laugh
Provincial ain't so bad.
Take me back down to where I belong
To rust in rivers.
I do not covet any man's life
I know my place all too well
One man's paradise is another man's living hell.
To each their own
Generation's ago made this place my own
The roots are deep and strong
Carry them wherever I go.
Never wanted your approval
Never wanted your acceptance
Never wanted to be anything but me
Never wanted to be anywhere but here.
Carry me Southeast bound home
To speak in defense of our good name
Lay me to rest with my kin
In the ground of God's country.
Lash out at any who would smear you with hate
Deify no one, never crawl ashamed
The past screams injustice on Southern night wind
Whips manacles chains musket balls
A dark history never forgotten
Only misconception remains.
Speak in defense of our good name
The blood of kin grants absolution
I'll join them soon enough in the ground of God's country.
Never wanted your acceptance
Never wanted your approval
Never wanted to be anything but me
Never wanted to be anywhere but here.

Date Set for 'Office' Finale
NBC has announced that the final episode of The Office will air on Thursday, May 16. The hour-long finale also happens to be the series' 200th episode. Though some series favorites may return for the send-off—like Mindy Kaling, B.J. Novak and Zach Woods (who played Gabe)—don't expect to see Michael Scott. NBC chairman Robert Greenblatt recently said, "[Steve Carell] left in the way he wanted to leave, and he and Greg [Daniels] talked about it, and I don't think he will. There's maybe a little Hail Mary pass on a cameo, but I think the decision would be compromising his schedule" …

Now, the larger-than-life story of The New Testament gets a larger-than life treatment in the stand-alone feature SON OF GOD. Told with the scope and scale of an action epic, the film features powerful performances, exotic locales, dazzling visual effects and a rich orchestral score from Oscar-winner Hans Zimmer. Portuguese actor Diogo Morgado portrays Jesus as the film spans from his humble birth through his teachings, crucifixion and ultimate resurrection. It marks the first motion picture about Jesus' life since Passion of the Christ, released ten years ago.

In certain circumstances, if your home or office is not suitable, you can take your classes at the trainer's office. All course materials are provided.
We will be happy to offer a free language consultancy before the start of your language training course. This normally takes the form of a telephone conversation in which your specific language training requirements are discussed. We talk about the business situations in which you might be required to use your new language skills, and what work-specific terminology you would like to be able to use in the target language. We can also advise on the best method of learning for you to achieve your goals, and then design a language training course which will enable you to achieve them.
The course is of a nuts and bolts variety but our instructor helps us immencely in understanding and overcoming so many of the nuiances that are present in the Italian language.
With the help of our Italian courses in Albuquerque your business relationships with foreign clients will improve enormously. You will receive a solid grounding in basic business etiquette and greetings before moving on to look at other subjects which could help further your career.

Whatever reason you need to learn or improve your Italian skills, a one-on-one Italian course in Albuquerque with Language Trainers is the perfect solution. The practical needs of the student are always the course's priority - once the basic elements have been studied, the direction of the course depends on what will be useful for the student.

The ATI Radeon R600/700 Gallium3D Driver
Published on 17 July 2010 10:48 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
29 Comments
For months there has been the "R600g" driver that has been
under development
by the open-source community to create a Gallium3D hardware driver for the ATI Radeon HD 2000/3000/4000 (R600/700 generation) graphics cards similar to the "R300g" driver that supports the ATI Radeon graphics processors up through the X1000 (R500) series. We reported in late May that
R600g was merged to Mesa master
, but we haven't talked about this Gallium3D driver much since then so a reader this morning to ask in about its status.
We have talked about the ATI R300g driver a lot lately since it's working quite well with the R500 hardware and many times is faster than the classic Mesa driver while it also provides OpenGL 2.1 support (compared to OpenGL 1.5 with the classic stack) and works with more games and applications. The R300g driver, which started out as a Google Summer of Code project by Corbin Simpson, soon enough may end up replacing the classic Mesa R300 driver as the default open-source driver. Unfortunately, the R600g driver hasn't been moving along quite as fast.
While the R600g driver now lives within Mesa's master code-base so that it can more easily stay up-to-date with Gallium3D interface changes and other improvements, it's not evolving in an expedited manner. In fact, since the R600g driver was pushed to master there haven't been a whole lot of changes. According to the
Git log
for the R600 class Gallium3D driver, the last change made was in early July by David Airlie. Previous to that, the last time there was substantive work done to this driver would be early June.
The R600 Gallium3D winsys also hasn't been changing in a fast manner with its most recent work being done last month according to
its log
Hopefully by the end of the year we'll still be able to see an R600/700 Gallium3D driver that is at least functioning, but likely not up-to-par with the R300g support level or the speed and features currently offered by the classic Mesa hardware driver for this same hardware. Until then, using the classic Mesa driver for the R600/700 hardware is really the only choice for those not wanting to use the proprietary ATI Catalyst driver but prefer a fully open-source stack. We're also still waiting on any open-source 3D driver for the ATI Radeon HD 5000 "Evergreen" hardware with its one-year anniversary from launch being not too far away.

After all the hype her theoretical campaign produced, actress Ashley Judd announced Wednesday that she would not challenge Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) for his seat in 2014.
The announcement leaves Kentucky Democrats without a prime candidate to oppose McConnell, as many other potential contenders have also declined to get in the ring. The Democratic Party's reluctance comes despite the fact that McConnell has earned the ignominious title of least popular senator in the country.
Months ago, McConnell's miserable approval rating had both Democrats and Tea Party activists excited about their odds of unseating him. A December survey from the Democratic firm Public Policy Polling found that 55 percent of Kentucky voters disapproved of his job performance, the worst mark for any senator the company had polled. In another poll from January, only 17 percent of respondents said they'd vote for him next year, and just one-third of Republicans.
So why did Judd, after all that hype, join the other candidates on the sidelines?
"After serious and thorough contemplation, I realize that my responsibilities & energy at this time need to be focused on my family," Judd wrote in a series of tweets on Wednesday. "Regretfully, I am currently unable to consider a campaign for the Senate."
However, Judd's decision to bow out suggests that McConnell, though not necessarily popular, remains relatively strong. PPP's poll showed that he still led every potential Democratic challenger he was pitted against.
"The reason McConnell does decently well in the head to head matchups despite his poor approval numbers is that even though a lot of Republicans dislike him, most of them would still vote for him in a general election before they would support a Democrat," PPP's Tom Jensen wrote.
The state backed Mitt Romney by a 23-point margin over President Obama last year, and elected Sen. Rand Paul (R) in 2010 by an 11-point margin.
A promised threat from McConnell's right is similarly in doubt. Democrats have said they'd help Tea Party activists launch a primary challenge, but no candidate has emerged. One potential challenger was caught lying about his ties to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
McConnell has courted Tea Party leaders and politicians to head off that effort, including Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who helped raise $230,000 for his campaign at an event Monday. Paul has also indicated that he would support him.
