Adventure Game Studio allows you to create your own point-and-click adventure games, similar to the early 90's Sierra and Lucasarts adventures. It consists of an easy-to-use editor to create your games, and a run-time engine to play them. The game interface is fully customizable, with classic Sierra and Verb Coin templates provided by default. AGS manages most of the game so that you don't have to - it does all the donkey work like load/save game functions, pathfinding and scrolling rooms so that you can concentrate on the parts of your game that make it unique. Set up your rooms, characters and sprites visually in the editor, then add some script to handle game events and you're done! You can even create a standalone EXE file containing your entire game, which you can then distribute to your adoring fans worldwide.

A July 2010 review of recent USAID inspector general reports covering Pakistan and Afghanistan show that such contracts have trouble producing results.
A 2008 contract to DAI to increase the capacity of Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Areas found that after almost two years, and spending of about $15.5 million, "little progress had been made" because most of the first year was spent developing plans and building relationships.
Japarov noted that Tashiev's security detail was unarmed. Ultimately, according to Japarov, the attackers fled. However, the security detail managed to confiscate four Makarov pistols. Moreover, one of the attackers dropped an SNB employee ID.
As politicians in Kyrgyzstan vie to form the next government in Bishkek, it seems the path to power goes through Moscow. Russian leaders, however, appear to be nervous kingmakers. The chief concern in the Kremlin is that Kyrgyzstan's new constitution, which transforms the Central Asian state into a parliamentary democracy, will produce governmental gridlock.

Jeremy Irvine (AP Photo/Jonathan Short)
Jeremy Irvine, who shot to fame playing young Albert Narracott in Steven Spielberg's adaptation of the British play War Horse, has now moved on to promoting his second big role in a soon-to-be-released adaptation of Charles Dickens' Great Expectations.
The film was unveiled last week at the Toronto Film Festival – and it's been given the high profile closing night slot at next month's London Film Festival.
The picture, directed by Mike Newell, also stars Ralph Fiennes and Helena Bonham Carter.
Irvine plays the key role of Pip – a character who rises from orphan boy into a gentleman in Dickens' 19th Century novel.
The actor says: "What we've done is I think made it more kind of a [sexual] and a more violent version. This shouldn't be a boring period movie. We've done the opposite of that. We've almost ditched a lot of what you typically find in a period movie like this for the real, raw human emotion."
Given that BBC television recently produced an adaptation of the novel some have questioned whether or not there's a need for another version so soon.
Irvine says: "There's only been one classical movie version since 1946 – so I reckon 60 years is probably about time for a new one."
A year ago Irvine had little name recognition – but that's changed. He's still a little taken aback by his success and not totally comfortable that he's doing so well in the business when others aren't.
He says: "It is weird, and I feel very guilty. A lot of great actors aren't working, and I am, you do feel quite guilty about it."
Early reviews of Great Expectations have been positive — although there have been complaints that the adaptation lacks vitality and edge. But there's been a lot of praise for some of the performances, as well as technical aspects of the film.

I'm still working on my day 3 pic and day 4. I'm getting left behind, damn it. lol.
I'm still working on my day 3 pic and day 4. I'm getting left behind, damn it. lol.
Here is my Fanfiction profile page. Read my fanfiction(s) if you so desire.
Hey all, damn is it good to be back. Most of you probably won't know what I'm talking about, but I need to say a few things..
1) Sorry to all the people that read my FanFic and were left hanging. It wasn't my intention, but (as cliche as it sounds) life took over, and I seldom got the time to work on new chapters. Eventually, I became disinterested in Pokemon completely (with a renewed interest coming on the eve of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire!).
2) As I am taking a few courses on writing next semester, I think it would be prudent for me to start up (or improve upon the existing chapters of the FanFic I effectively abandoned) a piece of writing. I'd like to keep it open ended (no real end until I see fit). This will be during summer, for obvious logistical reasons.
With all that out of the way, I'm looking forward to seeing some more AdvanceShippers on here with the ORAS series! I'm also holding out hope that May and Max will make an appearance in the anime in order to indirectly promote these games. I'll admit, after the DP series, I stopped watching.. so I am very, very behind. I did watch half of the BW series the other day, and it seems decent, but the XY series seems.. odd? I think all the new Pokemon look really weird to be honest. I'm quite used to the RBY/GS/RSE/FRLG/DPP looking ones, and I'm even starting to warm up to the BW ones, but the XY Pokemon look waaay too out there for me to be able to visualize myself actually using them..
And it's good to see some familiar faces still here! (cough cough midnight cough)
What I'm Currently Working On:
Destiny of the Aura. An Advanceshipping FanFic!
Creds to BrutakaBlaziken for the outstanding banner! // Proud Advanceshipper and looking like a Armourshipper!
May is love. May is life
For real though, this is pretty good artwork for a casual thing. Wish I had the talent.
"We are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven. That which we are, we are. One equal temper of heroic hearts. Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."Thank you FairyWitch for the banner!
Ah well, this thread went dead 5 days ago. Might as well continue the game to bring back this thread alive.
"Shhh! Bonnie! Don't say it out- ah well. We're caught anyway..." Clemont said, his hand over his little sister's mouth. Ash and May were shocked on the sound of Bonnie saying something regarding Ash's friend. Could it be...
"Well now, who's this guy? Iris said. "Hehe, sorry, my little sister got suddenly loud. I'm Clemont, and this is my little sister, Bonnie." Clemont introduced, gesturing for a handshake, to which Iris accepts. "I'm Iris, by the way." Iris introduced herself. "Can you please keep my brother, s'il vous plaît?" Bonnie said, her left knee on the ground, somewhat proposing to her. "Bonnie! I told you not to do that again!" Clemont cringed at the sight, and used his Aipom Arm to pull Bonnie away from Iris. He began walking away, scolding Bonnie, until...
"Clemont." Ash said. "Uhh, yes?" Clemont said, turning around to see him. "...What did Bonnie mean by, 'What about Serena?" Ash asked. This got May curious too.

Space History Remembered
by Mike Stanz
posted Jul 21 2014 5:00AM
It was 45 years ago yesterday that Neil Armstrong became the first man ever to step foot on the surface of the Moon.
Or, if you're a conspiracy theorist, the first to fake stepping on the Moon.
Let's go with the former, shall we?
It was a magical time in the summer of '69, with just about everyone with a television set watching the live broadcast from space as Armstrong leapt from the ladder of the lunar module and planted a flag on the Moon's surface, uttering the words that have been memorized by so many: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
These days, Armstrong would have taken a selfie video and posted it to Instagram.
Ah, nostalgia…

Gamescom 2011: Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine - Dark Future Video Series Part II
Part II of the Dark Future video series details the bond, power, and responsibility Space Marines share with each other to keep the human race safe from destruction.
The space marines are much taller and bigger in-game dont worry, check out the demo and you can see for yourself at the end of inquisitor :)
space marines are supposed to be 2 meters tall, this showed them as the same size as an imperial guards men.
I really really hope this turns out as good as it looks.
Can't wait to start kerb-stomping ork heads into bloody mush. :D

Animal Welfare: a Win-Win Opportunity
02 Nov 12
Experts, academics, small-scale farmers, civil society and intergovernmental organizations came together today at the Salone del Gusto and Terra Madre 2012 to discuss the importance of introducing better animal welfare systems and supporting small-scale farmers in their implementation. With the proliferation of animal welfare standards set by the private sector, small-scale farmers risk not being able to stand up to the competition in terms of resources, technology and knowledge and seriously risk being increasingly marginalised. The speakers of the conference, jointly organized by Slow Food and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), collectively raised a voice in favour of making farmers the protagonists of this moment in which animal welfare is progressively being recognized as a common good and its benefit for farmers, animals and citizens alike are being understood.
Speakers included top animal welfare expert Mateus Paranhos Da Costa, who spoke about the importance of training programmes and how they can significantly improve the conditions of farm animals. Speaking about the situation of animal welfare in Brazil, Mateus underlined the importance of changing the focus from pointing out what is wrong to understanding how to solve the problem. Richard Haigh from the Zulu Sheep Presidium contributed to the meeting with his practical experience raising sheep and underlined that farming must revolve around responsibility, relationships, attitudes and legacy. Aurelia Maria Castellanos Quintero, of the Cuban Association of Animal Production emphasized the importance of spreading good practices of farmers through effective communication.
FAO data indicates that around 1 billion people depend on animals as a source of income, food, cultural identity and social status. It is estimated that 60% of families that live in rural areas keep animals. Animal welfare is of crucial importance to these communities, due to the fact that a secure supply of food depends on the health and productivity of animals, and these in turn depend on the care and nutrition that animals receive. The livelihood of farming families and the link with animal welfare will therefore be an issue of attention in 2014, the UN declared International Year of Family Farming.
The conference Animal Welfare: a Win-Win Opportunity for Animals, Farmers and Consumers, set the basis for a collaboration that will lead to an in-depth analysis of the links between animal and food security and safety, human and animal health, protection of biodiversity, economical and environmental sustainability and the livelihood of small-scale farmers. The collaboration will also target young farmers and leverage their high sensibility on these issues.

ASHBURN, VA. Six Minnesota Vikings blitzed. Six Washington Redskins blocked. Robert Griffin III read the moment perfectly, a rookie seeing the play like a seasoned veteran. There would be no one to stop him if he took off.
It's long been known that a running quarterback changes the dynamic of a game. When that quarterback can travel the final 60 yards of a 76-yard touchdown run in about six seconds — while wearing pads, carrying the ball and looking back at chasing defenders, as Griffin did on Sunday — then it truly is a whole new ball game.
"It's been 10-on-11, offensive guys vs. defensive guys," Redskins fullback Darrel Young said. "If you put a guy in that position where he can run, it's 11-on-11."
Defences will watch the video of the Redskins' 38-26 win over the Minnesota Vikings and wonder what they can do to stop the Heisman Trophy winner and former Big 12 hurdle champion who already knows how to survey an NFL defence and figure out the next move.
"I saw the blitz," said Griffin, describing the third-and-6 that produced the 76-yard run. "And I was thinking I'm either going to throw hot, or if they miss this blitz and don't hit it the right way, I'm going to run for the first. I saw that they missed it, took off running."
He had help. None of it would have been possible had running back Evan Royster not picked up blitzing linebacker Jasper Brinkley. The five offensive linemen held their ground against the other five rushing Vikings, leaving a lane for Griffin to run forward and then toward the left sideline.
His speed was such that safety Jamarca Sanford took a bad angle and ended up in a hapless game of chase. Safety Harrison Smith dived at Griffin's heels, forcing a momentary high-step from the rookie. Receiver Josh Morgan added a key downfield block.
The touchdown put the game away in the fourth quarter and dismissed any thoughts that Griffin would be affected by a concussion suffered a week earlier. He ranked 14th in the NFL in rushing as of Monday with 379 yards, far and away ahead of any other quarterback. His threat as a runner also opens up the passing game — he's the only starting QB completing more than 70 per cent of his passes and has thrown only two interceptions through six games.
"Anytime you have a quarterback that has a threat of making a play with his legs, a lot of times you have defences spying the quarterback," coach Mike Shanahan said Monday. "And they want to play man coverage, but they don't want to rush everybody because they've got to account for the quarterback, just like we saw yesterday. Robert breaks the line of scrimmage, all of a sudden you've got six guys rushing, and he's one-on-one."
Behind Griffin, the Redskins are 3-3 — right there with about one-third of the NFL — and next week's game against the New York Giants is their first against an NFC East opponent. Washington's recent history of futility is irrelevant when he's under centre — until or until he gets hurt again. After all, backup Kirk Cousins is more like one of those 10 vs. 11 quarterbacks.
"One of the great things about youth is that you don't know," veteran linebacker London Fletcher said. "He doesn't realize how hard it is to win in this league. He's just been phenomenal in what he's done. Nothing's been too big for him. Really, he's just going out there really having fun. I wish I could have as much fun as he does playing the game because he's really just going out there carefree, just making plays like he's just out of high school and it's how college might be. It's great to watch."
NOTES: Shanahan said WR Pierre Garçon is going to need more rest while recovering from a right-foot injury. Garçon was inactive Sunday and has missed three of six games. "You could see when he's pushing off, he goes downfield, he's not anywhere close to full speed," Shanahan said. The coach said the injury is underneath Garçon's second toe. ... CB DeAngelo Hall says it's "asinine" to think that he slapped Vikings RB Adrian Peterson after the two jawed at each other after one play. "He slapped me in the face after making a good tackle on me," Peterson said after the game. Hall's response: "I have no idea what he's talking about." Hall added that might have pushed Peterson after the play but didn't slap him.

In Nebraska and across the nation, there is a growing recognition of the important role that Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, frequently referred to as the STEM fields, will play in helping our young people succeed in today's globally connected, highly competitive economy. There is also a growing recognition that there simply is not enough time during the traditional school day and year to provide young people with the hands on, engaging learning experiences they need to master these important STEM concepts.
That is why programs providing expanded STEM learning opportunities for Nebraska youth are so important to the future of our state's youth and in the long run to our economic vitality. Tonight's program, the first in NET's two-year series of programs exploring The State of Education in Nebraska, we are going to delve into the intersection of out of school time programs and STEM initiatives.

During the holiday season, shoppers are visiting websites and stores that may not be on their radars during other months of the year. If you can convince these shoppers of your business's value in their everyday lives, the holiday season can be a time of tremendous growth for your lists.
Your marketing campaign is important to your business – you know this. However, if you're not keeping an eye on the right conversion metrics, all the marketing in the world isn't going to help you.
If you measure against your goals and find that your campaign is not getting you the results you would like, don't be afraid to correct your course.
Once you've done the hard work of setting your holiday marketing goals (perhaps increasing brand awareness or revenue), don't forget to check in periodically to make sure that your campaign is meeting the mark.

MANILA, Daggett County — Anglers can win up to $10,000 next month if they reel one of the unwanted burbot fish in the Flaming Gorge Reservoir on the Utah-Wyoming border.
The third-annual "Burbot Bash Fishing Derby" is scheduled for Feb. 1-3. It is hosted by wildlife agencies in Utah and Wyoming, several chambers of commerce and the U.S. Forest Service.
Fisherman can win $1,000, $2,500 or $10,000 by catching one of 25 burbots that will be tagged. The prize pot is about $20,000.
The burbot was illegally introduced into the reservoir in 2006, said Ryan Mosley of the Utah Division of Wildlife.
"They have just exploded in abundance," Mosley said.
The burbot, which usually weigh 6-8 pounds, harm other sport fish that are native to the reservoir such as the small mouth bass, Mosley said. The burbot compete with the bass for their main source of food and sometimes burbot eat small mouth bass.
"They are kind of getting it from two different ends," said Mosley of the small mouth bass.
The burbot are native to Wyoming but on the eastern side of the Continental Divide. Officials believe a fisherman transported one to a river that drains into the Flaming Gorge Reservoir. It might have been a fisherman who wanted to reel them in closer to home, said Mosley, who said the burbot are sought after fish that are very tasty.
Wildlife officials opted to lean on fisherman to help remove the fish rather than other removal techniques that can be costly, time-consuming and labor intensive, Mosley said. The fishing competition is a way to provide a family-friendly recreational event while also reducing the burbot population.
Officials are expecting about 400 people in the competition. Anglers can also win cash prizes for most catching the most burbot or reeling in the biggest burbot. Burbots are about 35 inches long.
The lucky fishermen who catch one of the 25 fish with prize tags won't know how much they've won until they go to the closing ceremony Feb. 3 at the rodeo grounds in Manila.
The Flaming Gorge Reservoir spans across the Wyoming-Utah border.

OPP: Should I Stay With Pregnant Girlfriend?
by Slacker and Steve
posted Aug 7 2012 4:44PM
His girlfriend made a mistake and now wants his help dealing with it…and it's something that could impact the rest of his life!
Yi! My girlfriend and I had a fight in late June. She hooked up with a guy and got pregnant following a one-night stand. We got back together before she found out she was pregnant. She wants us to raise the child. I love my girl, but am torn over what to do? HELP!
Slacker says they talked to this guy (who wishes to remain anonymous) and today's OPP sees this as an accident, like they need to just pick up the pieces and move on. He feels he needs to be the bigger man and raise the child as if it were his own, but he's genuinely torn. Steve can't believe this guy is even writing in, but points out that his relationship with the girlfriend is now permanently fractured. Even if he does take on the burden of this child, if they were to have a child together in the future, would the first child (his adopted child) at some point feel different or lesser than the second (his biological child)? What about when times get tough and he wants to jump ship...and can because it isn't really his kid? Basically, what Slacker and Steve boil it down to is this: is being with the person you love worth taking on a situation of this gravity?
This is a tricky one, and it's easy to make assumptions especially without all the details (how long they were together before they broke up, etc.). I think, as a few others on Facebook pointed out, if he really loves her and is committed to this relationship he will stay. Yes, at times it will be difficult, but if they are meant to be together then they will work it out. However, if he's really that torn then maybe it's a sign that he needs to end it. In short, if it's not meant to be, then it's not meant to be and he needs to follow his instincts.
What would you do if you were put in our OPP's shoes? Would you be able to ask something this enormous of a guy?
Until next time,

OPP: Made a Scene at Work
by Slacker and Steve
posted Jul 24 2012 4:44PM
Being embarrassed at work sucks…especially when your significant other is to blame! That's exactly what happened to today's OPP and he needs your help getting his home life and work life separate again:
My girlfriend showed-up to my office yesterday to make a scene. I am so embarrassed. She showed up and confronted a female co-worker of mine thinking I was cheating on her. She made a fifteen minute scene right there in the middle of my office. I couldn't get her out of there. After she left I spent the next fifteen minutes apologizing profusely to my co-workers. I was so upset I left work early. Has anyone else ever had this happen before? Are my co-workers going to think less of me now? Should I break up with her? What do I do now?
Slacker had something kind of similar happen at a job once...but with his mom! He was the only person who worked at this store other than his boss so there were no serious repercussions, but in an office, where there are likely many more people around, it is a very different environment
Most people were saying the same thing: unless she has a really good reason for creating such an ordeal, dump her. I would probably suggest something similar...though I would also want to take into consideration how long they have been together as well as how close he is to the co-worker he is suspected of cheating with, it is possible things could look different from the outside.
What would you do if your significant other made a scene like this while you were trying to do your job?
Until next time,

If this is the free program ClickHere DivXPlus
The way I understand it is one of the features "supports hardware accelerated encoding with Intel Sync" only works with the Sandybridge/Ivybridge CPU so if you aren't bothered about that extra feature 'Intel Sync' it doesn't matter what your processor is.

Hi lotvic
Thanx for that, I already have the free player. But I just started to download this update and am now uncertain if the bit of the software I was most interested in is indeed free. It says...
Stream to DLNA compatible devices throughout your home 15 day trial includes MPEG-2 video support in converter.
I think I'll give it a miss, cheers anyway.

Lenses / Re: First Image of the EF 100-400 f/4.5-5.6L IS II Lens« on: November 07, 2014, 05:22:45 PM »
Still thinkin some folks are way over shooting on price here. And someone else just added evidence regarding the suspicions pre-release of the 16-35 f4. $1200 steal in my opinion. 7D2, same thing. Everyone was thinkin $2500, and it came at $1799. I'm still saying this will be closer to $2k. Seems most everyone here feels the Sig or Tammy 150-600 is a much better value than a $3k 100-400. The current model is being gobbled up at $1699, I just don't think they would so radically abandon an already well-established price range. If this comes out at $3k, I'll buy the SIg Sport instead, and I think a not-so-insignificant amount of others will follow suit. Canon didn't price the 7D2 out of the target market. They won't do that to this lens either. But I will be happy admit I'm wrong if it turns out I am
Hello PureClassA!
You are right, many of us were expecting the 7D2 at about 2500€/$. This was a big surprise (a positive one for me). My contacts from Japan are irritated, why they all were wrong. The inner circle of the rumor board (they call themself as insiders (maybe they are working for Canon)), were a little bit shocked. There were many scenarios discussed. One of this is, that they were all foolished by an "insider" who made an joke. Another scenario was, that an "Canon-Foe" positioned an faked rumor. Another one, that Canon decided to cut off features from the 7D2, that were firstly contained in the Cam (e.g. Wifi, or an higher resolution sensor.). This last scenarion would made have sense, if Canon did an market analysis and realised, that an 2.5k Cam would not be accepted by the mass of possible customers. So, cutting off features would make sense.
And now, rurmors from Japan say, that this lens will be cheaper than first rumored. Maybe, the announcements of 2 possible competitors (Sigma, Tamron), changed their market strategy too and they will announce it cheaper than calculated.
We will see in some days.

This heartbreaking and essential look into the lives of those who put so much into educating other people's children ought to be seen by anyone concerned about the fate of the public school system, and the nation as a whole.
Sep 28, 2011The film is relentlessly one-sided enough to become tiring, but it's impossible not to feel for the main characters, who all love what they do while continually being forced to question how feasible it is.
What's made powerfully clear is that we've reached a dire point of crisis that, while largely rooted in economics, is about so much more than dollars and cents.
There is a passionate, combative and riveting documentary to be made about the plight of the American schoolteacher, but unfortunately the well-meaning, unfailingly decent and overly slack American Teacher isn't it.
The movie is a curious blend of teacher-appreciation mandate and recruitment video, though it's not always clear at whom the narration's gravely spoken factoids are directed.
American Teacher doesn't come close to doing what it sets out to do, but it does end up as a heartfelt, bittersweet portrait of several teachers.

New State of California legislation now gives school employees and volunteers the option of undergoing a tuberculosis risk assessment rather than having a TB test in order to work or volunteer at the school. This new law will be in effect January 1, 2015 and while we still don't know what the risk assessment will look like, it most likely will be a questionnaire and exam given by a health professional . We are hoping this is a service the school nurse can provide to our school.
This is a change that will be welcomed by many of you. I will keep you all updated as I get more information.
The next meeting is at December 9 from 2:30 – 3:30 pm at Little Creek Nursery located at 215 Washington Street, Nevada City.
To register call (530) 265-6060 x 102 or email Melissa at email@example.com.
Attending a PIM is required before receiving an Application for Enrollment. During this meeting you will learn about the philosophy and educational approach of a Waldorf curriculum and the preschool program that Little Creek Nursery offers.
These meetings are for parents only.]]>
The NCSOS business office has requested that employees no longer make purchases for school reimbursement on the same receipt showing personal shopping items. So that means, if you go to COSTCO and buy one thing for you and 4 items for the school, you need to get TWO separate receipts. We often see someone buys a coffee at Safeway then has school items on the receipt. This will no longer be allowed and the County will not reimburse receipts with personal items starting January 1, 2015. So start the practice now and there won't be any problems down the road.
