One of the less talked about formats of DFS baseball is the survivor tourney. The contest usually lasts three or four days and pays out on the final day. The earlier days are used to pare down the field. In short, contests leading up to the final day are more like 50/50s or double ups where a set percentage of the field advances to the next day then the last day is a tournament.
Fantasy Aces is running their biggest contest of the season this week, a survivor tourney starting with 200 entries on Monday and finishing on Thursday with a 20-entry tournament that pays all spots. Over the summer I've earned eight of the initial 200 entries via satellite tourneys.
As such, not only am I pondering strategies to take down a survivor tourney where most of the entries were won by talented DFS players but I'm also tying in the fact that not only do I have multiple tickets but so do several others in the field.
By means of a quick review of the rules at Fantasy Aces, you use two starting pitchers, one catcher, two corner infielders, two middle infielders, three outfielders and a utility hitter. The corner can be any combination of 1B and 3B while middle can be any mix of 2B and SS. Here are the questions I've been jostling around in my gray matter this week.
The easy decision is to treat the first day of the survivor week akin to a cash game and be conservative as opposed to using boom-or-bust players, especially pitchers. That said, two pitching spots allows for some measure of creative hedging without getting too crazy.
Feeding into this dynamic is Monday's ledger is devoid of any no-brainer ace. This is going to make for some interesting pitching pairs.
With the note that the Yankees-Royals game is off the board, The two arms closest to standard cash game anchors are Tanner Roark and Chris Tillman. Roark is better at home but the Phillies offense is subpar and they're a bit loose with the whiffs. The catch is he has a pedestrian K-rate. Tillman is at home versus the Rays, a team that doesn't score many runs but doesn't fan much either. Like Roark, Tillman's basal K-rate is lower than average but he should stay in the game, get points for innings and have a shot at a win.
The thing to keep in mind is everything is relative. Roark and Tillman may not accrue the points of the usual cash game anchor, but on paper they're expected to be among the night's best scores
An intriguing name is Jeff Samardzija as Oakland visits Houston. On one hand, the Astros are near the top of the league in home long balls versus righties. On the other, they whiff more than almost any other squad. If this were the finals, I'd probably have at least one share of Samardzija (assuming I had multiple entries) but I'm wondering if it's best to fade him since he'll likely be highly owned on such a sparse slate.
Of the lesser pitchers, Jake Peavy is very compelling. The Colorado Rockies visit AT&T Park and bring with them a pretty hideous August strikeout rate of 30.4 percent. Peavy's mound opponent is Tyler Matzek so the all-important win is in play, though I tend to worry less about the win in cash games.
The final pitcher I'm considering is J.A. Happ as the Toronto Blue Jays are entertaining the hapless Boston Red Sox. I'll be straight; if this were a large-entry tourney, I'd be pretty invested in Happ. But it's not so my inkling is to focus on some mish-mash of the above four and throw Happ into a couple of tourneys elsewhere.
The strategy I'm leaning to is taking Peavy, Tillman and Roark, pairing them as Peavy/Roark, Peavy/Tillman and Roark/Tillman and then doubling each to anchor six of the eight lineups. The last two will have Samardzija and with Tillman and Roark. My (over)thinking is this is a bit of a hedge but not too extreme. I expect Samardzija's ownership to be high so I like the idea of fading him in six lineups. On the other hand, if the strikeouts trump the homers then I'll still have a piece of that action as well.
The next question is how much diversification should I use within each pair of lineups with the same arms as well as across all the rosters? The two hitters that stand out as must-starts are Kyle Seager facing Miles Mikolas in Safeco Field and Buster Posey squaring off against Matzek in AT&T. Past that it gets interesting since there's no obvious pig pile, at least not to the extent of the usual stack.
You'll have to excuse me now; it's time to consult the Fantasy Alarm DFS Playbook and enter some preliminary lineups. Once they're official, I'll come back and post them in the comments.
So long as I have a ticket alive in the tourney, I'll post my thoughts for the roster(s).

Well that was interesting -- never put in 8 rosters before and was also caught off guard with no Shields available -- this is going to be an interesting evening and hopefully week.

COOLED FLUX SHIELD FOR GENERATOR TERMINAL BOX BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates generally to the terminal box which leads the high voltage bushings from a large dynamoelectric machine, such as a hydrogenand liquidcooled turbine-generator. Stray magnetic flux from the phase leads and neutral leads as they are carried through the terminal box by the high voltage bushings will impinge upon the walls of the terminal box and cause circulating currents. This can lead to overheating of the terminal box walls in some locations depending upon orientation of the walls and their location with respect to the bushings.
The use of flux shields in various portions of a dynamoelectric machine is well known. These generally consist of sheets of conductive material placed between the source of stray flux and the member which is to be shielded. Circulating currents are set up in the flux shield itself which then tend to repel stray flux from entering the shielded member. An example of a flux shield for the lamination clamping fingers of a dynamoelectric machine may be seen in U.S. Pat. No. 1,645,070 Pohl, while a liquid-cooled flux shield for the end plate of a dynamoelectric machine may be seen in U.S. Pat. No. 3,435,262 Bennett et al.
For a clearer understanding of the environment of the present invention, reference is made to U.S. Pat. No. 2,742,582 to Bahn et al., assigned to the presentassignee, which is incorporated herein by reference. The Bahn et al. patent shows a terminal box attached to a dynamoelectric machine with high voltage bushings cooled by the cooling gas utilized to cool the dynamoelectric machine proper. The present invention is an improvement over the simple terminal box shown in the Bahn et al. patent.
Accordingly, one object of the present invention is to provide an improved terminal box for a dynamoelectric machine bushings which reduces heating of the terminal box walls.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved, cooled flux shield for a dynamoelectric machine terminal box.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Briefly stated, the invention comprises the addition of a flux shielding member between the high voltage bushings and the terminal box walls. The shield is spaced from the walls and means are provided for inducing a flow of cooling gas to cool both the walls and the flux shield. The shield is arranged to create the greatest'cooli'ng at the location where overheating is most likely to occur.
DRAWING The subject matter which is regarded as the invention is particularly pointed out and distinctly claimed in the concluding portion of the specification. The invention, however, both as to organization and method of practice, together with further objects and advantages thereof, may best be understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing in which:
FIG. 1 is an isometric drawing of the terminal box with the high voltage bushings and the bushing cooling system omitted for clarity;
FIG. 2 is a sectional elevation drawing taken through the portion of the terminal box carrying a pair of bushings, and
FIG. 3 is a plan view, in section taken along lines III- III of FIG. 2.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring now to FIG. 1 of the drawing, the terminal box is seen to comprise a tub-shaped enclosure made up of a curved body wall 1, approximating a segment of a cylinder, end walls 2 and three downwardly extending phase pair enclosure walls 4, each covered by a flat plate 5. The upper rim of the terminal box is provided with a flange 6 which, by means of appropriate gaskets and bolt holes (not shown), the terminal box is secured to the underside of a dynamoelectric machine, as indicated in the aforementioned Bahn et al. patent.
Also as indicated in the Bahn et al. patent, the open top of the terminal box is connected to a source of cooling gas, since it communicates with the high pressure or discharge side of the conventional cooling fan which circulates cooling gas through the dynamoelectric machine;
Each end of the terminal box is provided with a suction manifold 7 with discharge ports 8 connected by means of piping (not shown) to other chambers in the dynamoelectric machine communicating with the suction side of its cooling fan.
A pair of holes 9 in the bottom plate of each phasepair enclosure 4 permit the line bushing and the neutral bushing for each phase to leave the dynamoelectric machine in a manner indicated in the Bahn et al. patent. The bushings themselves and theircooling systems are omitted in FIG. 1 in order not to obscure the details of the present invention. Briefly, however, the bushings have internal passageways for cooling gas which flows from the open interior of the terminal box, into the bushings, and out through the discharge conduits connected to the suction manifold 7, by means of pipes such as shown at 10 in FIG. 1. The cooling details of the bushings are immaterial to the present invention.
In order to provide additional cooling capability for the flux shield of the present invention, two additional suction manifolds 11 are provided on one side of the box. These are provided with pipes 20 arranged to communicate with the suction side of the dynamoelectric machine fan in the same manner as for suction manifolds 7.
The most critical portions of the terminal box subject to possible overheating are the vertical wall portions 12 of the phase-pair enclosures which are connected by cylindrical portions la of the body wall 1. These vertical walls 12 are relatively narrow in their centers and are considerably wider on either side of the terminal box. The general shape of wall portions 12 may beseen in FIG. 2. I
In accordance with the present invention, a flux shield 13 is added to the terminal box which comprises a relatively thin sheet of electrically conductive material shaped to conform generally to the curvature of vertical walls 12 and the connecting portions la. Shield 13 is secured in the box so as to be spaced from wall portions 12, 1a. On one side of the box, the upper edges of the flux shield 13 join with the walls of the two 'suction manifolds 11 so that the manifolds connect to the space between the flux shield and the walls of the terv 3 minal box. On the ends of the terminal box, special pipes 14 connect the space between the flux shield and the terminal box Walls with the suction manifolds 7. On the side of the box opposite manifolds 11, cutouts 15 in the bottom edge of the flux shield 13 provide admission of fairly large quantities of cooling gas. Additional small metered quantities of gas are admitted by means of holes 16 on the side of the box with the suction manifolds 11.
A better understanding of the invention will be had by reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 of the drawing which are elevation and plan sectional views, respectively, through one of the phase-pair enclosures. The phase bushings are indicated by phantom lines 17. As indicated in FIG. 3, at any one instant of time, the current flow through the two bushings from any of the phase windings is in opposite directions, with flux linkages indicated at 18. These opposing linkages substantially cancel one another, but due to the physical sizes and separation of the bushings, there are elements of stray leakage flux schematically illustrated at 19 which impinge upon the sidewalls 12, the most severe condition being at a point midway between the bushings in the vertical wall portion 12.
OPERATION OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention, the stray leakage flux 19 impinges upon the walls of flux shield 13: and creates circulating currents therein which tend to oppose the passage of flux into the wall portions 12, although flux also enters walls 12 with a lesser intensity to cause some circulating current therein as well. Hence, the walls of flux'shield l3 (and also terminal box walls 12,-but to a much lesser extent than previously) are heated by the circulating currents.
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, cooling gas enters the cutouts l and flows through the space between the flux shield 13 and wall portions 12 and 1a toward the suction pipes 20. An additional metered flow of gas enters holes 16 and flows into pipes 20. The pattern is somewhat the same at the ends of the terminal box (see FIG. 1) except that gas flows from cutouts through pipes 14 into suction manifolds 7.,
The passageway between the flux shield and the terminal box walls when going from one side of the box to the other first decreases in cross section to a minimum cross-sectional area at the center of the box, and then increases. This central-portion of the vertical wall 12 has the most severe tendency to overheat, and the arrangement of the cooling gas passage is such that this is also the point where the cooling gas flows at the greatest velocity due to the decreased cross section. Hence, the greatest cooling takes place at the point of greatest tendency to overheat, with the result of a more uniform temperature distribution throughout.
The foregoing arrangement of a cooled flux shield greatly improves the design of a terminal box for a dynamoelectric machine. While there has been described what is considered to be. the preferred embodiment of the invention, other modifications will occur to those skilled in the art, such as utilizing other cooling fluids, including liquids, and it is desired to secure in the appended claims all such modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.

1. In a terminal box for a multi-phase dynamoelectric 4 machine having high voltage terminal bushings passing therethrough and having wall portions subject to heating from stray leakage flux from said bushings, the improvement comprising:
a flux shielding member interposed between said bushings and said wall portions and spaced from the wall portions to define cooling passages therebetween, and
means causing a flow of cooling fluid through said cooling passages between said shielding member and said wall portions for removing heat therefrom.
2. The combination according to claim 1, wherein said cooling passages are decreased in cross section to provide increased flow velocity of cooling fluid along wall portions which are subjected to the greatest stray leakage flux.
3. The combination according to claim 1, wherein said cooling-fluid-flow-causing means comprises:
a source of cooling gas from the dynamoelectric machine communicating with said bushings,
openings in said flux shield leading to said cooling passages between the flux shield and the wall portions, and
a suction conduit connected to said space between the flux shield and the wall portions to draw gas through said cooling passages.
4. The combination according to claim 1, wherein said wall portions and bushings are vertical and wherein the wall portion is narrowest at a point midway between a pair of bushings for each phase.

After the highly anticipated release of his Non-Phixion crew's The Future is Now LP, Ill Bill returns with his solo full length Ill Bill is the Future.
Following a mixtape format, the album is a good introduction to those that may have been introduced to Ill Bill by way of his Non Phixion material. Many of the tracks have already been released on other projects, and over half of the album consists of various freestyles that Bill has ripped throughout the years. One of those previously released tracks, "Simian Drugs" gets the LP off to a raucous beginning featuring Ill Bill joining forces with El-P, as their chemistry definitely warrants hitting the playback button a few times. "Circle of Tyrants" is a dope posse cut featuring Ill Bill's brother Necro, as well as Mr. Hyde, Goretex, and Carnage showcasing the usual guns, drugs, and face-slicing references that the crew has seemingly perfected.
The Scarface influenced "Yae Yo" featuring the Beatnuts and Problemz is a well-produced cut, featuring a dope flute sample and thumping drums that go fit the all-star lineup perfectly. On "Gangsta Rap", Ill Bill raps about ghetto life and drug hustling. But even if you can't relate to the subject matter, the production on the track is one of the albums best with a sick piano loop and well-matched horn samples. "Indy 5000 Freestyle" is one of the tracks on the album that you can actually tell is a freestyle, while many of the other "freestyles" on the album feature backup vocals and scratch-choruses which make them more like on-the-spot songs. But either way, each track, freestyle or not, will have your head nodding.
By the last track, all the gun and knife talk gets a little tiring, but there's no debating that the album does a good job of highlighting Ill Bill's best solo work. Ill Bill is the Future may disappoint those who may be looking for all new Ill Bill material, but it does serve as a good compilation of tracks and freestyles that will at least hold fans over until that official full-length drops.

4 Tips for Practicing PR in Real Time
by Adrienne Sheares on October 27th, 2014
Real-time PR isn't off-the-cuff PR. You can't simply tell the social media manager or intern to monitor trends and events on Twitter and respond to them. You have to have a plan.
Real-time PR, like the revered Oreo moment, is steeped in data and processes. To be successful with it, consider these four tips:
Team up with data. Data is the best asset for your real-time PR team. With data, you can quickly change course when a tactic isn't performing well.
Prepare real-time campaigns in advance. If you know a holiday or event is coming, prepare content in advance. Follow HBO's footsteps – during an annual awards ceremony, the cable network prepared content for all the predicted winners. Once the actual winner was announced, HBO released the appropriate content.
Have a process in place. Real time only works if you have a team empowered to act and respond. Make sure you've set up processes so that time-sensitive content doesn't get lost in a quagmire of approvals.
Use technology to your advantage. You don't have to be "on" all the time, but your tech should be. Let it be the constant hum in the background of your PR efforts. Institute rules so that you receive alerts when a possible real-time opportunity arises.
Real time only appears to happen in real time. The truth is that practicing PR in real time requires preparation, data and process.

Xbox Will Refund Gold Customers Upset by Service Changes
Mad you spent money on Xbox Live and you can now watch Netflix for free? Xbox is offering refunds for a limited time.
Mad you spent money on Xbox Live and you can now watch Netflix for free? Xbox is offering refunds for a limited time.
Microsoft may be making a major change to its Xbox Live Gold premium service that would no longer require users to pay to access streaming services.
First it was porn; now, it's your video games. The National Security Agency has been monitoring online games including World of Warcraft, Second Life and video games on Xbox Live, sometimes even using undercover agents disguised as trolls or orcs.
Uploading profanity-laced gameplay videos using tools on the Xbox One could cause players to lose some of their Xbox Live access, according to a statement released by Microsoft on Tuesday.
Valve's gaming platform Steam has 65 million users, beating out Xbox Live for the first time ever. Steam -- a gaming platform for PC, Mac and Linux -- has gained 30% of its users in the last 12 months, according to a Valve press release. Xbox Live, Microsoft's gaming platform for the Xbox 360 that will carry over to the next-generation Xbox One, has 48 million active users.
Microsoft has improved the Xbox Live experience for the upcoming Xbox One console, enhancing the friends feature and adding a follow function for new ways to consume content on Xbox Live. Unlike the static friends list from the Xbox 360 offering, the Xbox One's friends list updates in real time as your friends change games or add videos.
For those partial to pizza and nostalgic for the '90s, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows hits Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and Steam for PC Wednesday. This brawler evokes the classic TMNT arcade games, blended with the art style of the new Nickelodeon CG series. Published by Activision, it recalls the older days of arcade classics like 1989's original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the time-traveling follow-up Turtles in Time.
The Xbox Live Marketplace finally switched to pricing things in real currency amounts, doing away with the system's proprietary Microsoft Points. Microsoft announced the transition away from Microsoft Points a few months ago, and Monday's Xbox Live update makes the switch. Originally, all content available via Xbox Live was priced in points, from games to downloadable content add-ons. Points weren't tied to any local currency.
Microsoft invited players to install a beta version of an updated Xbox Live platform on their Xbox 360 consoles on Friday to collect feedback. Microsoft spokesperson Major Nelson posted the invitation on his blog early Friday morning. Players can log into their Xbox 360s and install the beta from the home hub of the dashboard. SEE ALSO: The Xbox One Will Be Available in November Xbox 360 users must sign non-disclosure agreements before installing the software.
Xbox Live users can download the Twitch app Tuesday, and access streaming video game content from Twitch users and channels. Viewers can watch the top 300 Twitch channels live, and browse through the content by game, by channel and by featured content. "Our app for Xbox 360 brings Twitch video to the television and into the living room of millions of Xbox Live members for the first time," said Emmett Shear, Twitch CEO.
Xbox Live exclusively debuted British comedy Pulp on Monday -- a first for Microsoft's online gaming and entertainment-streaming service. The movie, about a scrappy comic book store owner's encounter with a gang of money-laundering criminals, bypassed a theater premiere or straight-to-DVD debut in favor of the Xbox Live coming out party. Pulp had been screened at several film festivals before its March 4 public debut.
Microsoft's Xbox 360 console is more than a gaming device. In fact, owners are spending more time playing video and music than games on the device, Yusuf Mehdl, senior vice president of Microsoft's interactive entertainment business, disclosed on stage at AllThingsD's media conference Monday night.
CBS's televised broadcast of the People's Choice Awards will also be aired tonight on Xbox 360, Microsoft's gaming and entertainment-streaming console.
Thursday marks the tenth anniversary of Xbox Live, Microsoft's online gaming platform for the Xbox and the Xbox 360. For the last decade, Xbox Live has offered both a marketplace and online play space for gamers. It started in 2002 on Microsoft's original Xbox console; Xbox spokeperson Larry Hryb, better known as Major Nelson, said it launched with games like Ghost Recon, MechAssault and NFL Fever. Now Xbox Live serves as a complete entertainment package for the Xbox 360.
Forget decreased attention spans, neglected studies and pasty complexions. Parents of teenagers can add a new talking point to their anti-gaming rhetoric: meeting co-conspirators to runaway from home with. Four Iowa teens went missing this weekend, and parents and authorities think the seeds of the escape were planted during a chance encounter on Xbox Live.
Update: The service is now back online. Microsoft's Xbox LIVE service is currently down, and Microsoft is working on a fix. Microsoft's Service Status page says that users may experience difficulties with signing into Xbox LIVE from an Xbox console as well as from Xbox.com. "We are aware of the problem and are working to resolve the issue. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience," said Microsoft in a message on the page.
Xbox Live announced on Friday its first wave of games coming to the new Windows 8 operating system, including popular hits such as Angry Birds and Buck Hunter Pro to exclusive titles. It was announced earlier this year that Windows 8 would come with a built-in portal to Xbox 360 content when it launches on October 28. Gamers with any Windows PC, laptop or tablet device will be able to access certain games.
This week, Sony announced the launch of its new Google TV set-top box, the NSZ-GS7 Internet player, giving us one more option for watching TV and movies minus the cable box. If you'd like to shift content from your small-screen laptop to the giant flat-screen in your living room, there are now plenty of options available. Check out these five popular picks to see which player suits your viewing habits best.
Over the past few years, indie gaming has exploded from a hobby of few to a viable business for those with great game ideas. Thanks to distribution services like Steam, the Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network, console and PC owners have a wide variety of instant entertainment right at their thumbs. Add to that the exploding mobile markets that are opening games up to previously unreached audiences.
Long-time Microsoft watchers like me are marveling at the company's transformation. Slowly but surely, the siloed behemoth that once couldn't get its desktop and mobile operating system teams to talk to each other is now starting to glide forward as one vast entity. The most visible refection of this sea change: design. It's no secret that, across Microsoft's products, especially in software, there is now a single design language defined by reductionism, typography and unadorned shapes and colors.
Xbox 360 has added several new apps to its gaming console's Xbox Live package as part of an effort to make it an all-in-one entertainment system. Microsoft announced on Tuesday that it added access to various cable networks including Comcast Xfinity, HBO Go and Major League Baseball (MLB.TV) to Xbox Live, which allows users to watch TV, listen to music and participate in online gaming through the Xbox 360 console.
Given their recent display of copious spending, it's no surprise that social games empire Zynga will stop at nothing in order to increase its already enormous reach. With its history of spending sprees and expansion over the past few years, it's actually almost surprising that it's taken Zynga until now to begin to hint at expanding to the home console market.
Gamers will be disappointed to learn that there is no plan to release a new console to replace the six-year-old Xbox 360 anytime soon, according to a statement from Microsoft. With this year's E3 less than three months away, many hoped Microsoft would use the platform to announce new hardware, as they have done in the past -- details about the XBox 360 were introduced at E3 in 2005.
Alan Wake's American Nightmare, a game spun off from the popular psychological thriller Alan Wake, will be released in less than a week, and here's an exclusive look at its newest trailer. The game, set to be released on the XBox Live Arcade, is described by developer Remedy as not a sequel to Alan Wake, but another segment of the story.
The release of Microsoft's hotly anticipated Xbox 360 dashboard update earlier this month is causing a bit of a problem for some Xbox Live members: They still can't get their consoles online. Microsoft recently rolled out a big dashboard update to the Xbox 360 -- in addition to new voice and gesture controls, Bing search, television and social options -- but a glitch is keeping some consoles offline by not being able to sign into their Xbox Live profiles.
Microsoft just rolled out a big dashboard update to the Xbox 360. In addition to new voice and gesture controls, Microsoft has also updated its terms of service agreement with a new clause that prevents users from suing Microsoft in the event something unexpected happens to the Xbox 360 or the Xbox Live service. The gist of the legal document is this: Microsoft wants to settle potential legal issues out of court and in arbitration.
A new project promises to bring your Xbox Live avatar to life. CafePress and Microsoft Xbox have teamed up to turn gamers' avatars into customized merchandise, including t-shifts, flip fops and hoodies. We could see this being the perfect gift for the gamer on your holiday wishlist. For more details, check out the video above, or visit xbox.cafepress.com.
Microsoft has signed on an impressive roster of 40 TV and entertainment partners to Xbox Live, as the service evolves from a gaming hub into a full-range multimedia center. In the U.S., Bravo, Comcast, HBO Go, Verizon FiOS, Epix and SyFy will be joining existing partners Netflix, Hulu Plus and AT&T in offering content to Xbox Live subscribers.
Microsoft has unveiled a redesigned version of Xbox Live -- one that includes more voice commands, YouTube integration and live television. At its annual E3 press conference in Los Angeles, Microsoft demonstrated the simplified UI, which can be navigated almost entirely through voice commands that will allow for searching through games and accessing online content. Search on Xbox Live is now powered by Bing.
U.S. Xbox 360 owners, start your streaming TV engines. Hulu Plus lands on Xbox Live on Friday, April 29. Hulu Plus made its Internet and iOS debut last summer and made its way to the PS3, Roku and TiVo last fall. Some Blu-ray players and TVs can also access the subscription streaming service, which gives users access to current and past programs with limited advertising for $7.99 a month. Microsoft says it will be unlocking the service for all Xbox LIVE members for one week, ending May 6.
Lexus is using Xbox 360 to promote its CT 200h hybrid during an all-night gaming marathon for Halo: Reach this weekend. The sponsorship, which takes place on Saturday, December 18, includes a branded destination experience within Xbox Live where gamers can access "Darkcasting," an in-car talk show hosted by comedian Whitney Cummings. That show launched on November 4 and features interviews inside the car with social media influencers.
Maybe it's the tryptophan, but Thanksgiving week moves slowly in the United States. And with Black Friday having come and gone, most of the big holiday releases are already on shelves. Nevertheless, the week did see the release of one of the year's biggest titles: Gran Turismo 5 for the PlayStation 3. The Gran Turismo series is, in all likelihood, the biggest and best racing series in production, and there's a good reason for that.
Last.fm has announced that its Xbox service will be functional with new Kinect motion controller. With the Kinect system, Last.fm listeners will be able to control their music through both motion and voice. A station can be queued by hovering a hand over its respective Last.fm tile. Users can also use voice commands like "Xbox, play," and "Xbox, stop," to control the audio.
Esteemed game development studio Bungie concluded its direct involvement in the franchise this year with Halo: Reach, but the era ended with a bang — $200 million in sales in just one day, and 2,000 man years played in the first week. Want to know the secret behind one of the most popular video game franchises of all time? Nearly half of those hours were spent online playing with or against other players, an area in which Bungie and Microsoft is leading the industry.

(CNN) - Secretary of State John Kerry said Friday there was a framework for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas but more needed to be done to make it happen.
Earlier, the Israeli Cabinet rejected a proposed one-week humanitarian cease-fire but Kerry said no final proposal was submitted to Israel for a vote.
"Let's make that clear," Kerry told reporters in Cairo. "There is always mischief from people who oppose certain things, and I consider this one of those mischievous things."

A review of the new Criterion release of Monte Hellman's "The Shooting" and "Ride in the Whirlwind."
If an ordinary person woke up in the morning feeling the way a drunk feels with a hangover, he would call an ambulance and check himself into the emergency room. I'm not talking about your average garden-variety office-party hangover. I'm thinking of one of those mornings when you pick up the phone and somebody says hello and you're stuck for an answer.
That's how Jane Fonda feels in the first scene of "The Morning After." She crawls out of bed and looks in the mirror and sloshes some gin into a glass and wonders about the guy she woke up with. She wonders things like, who is he? She apparently has had a lot of mornings like this. She doesn't realize how bad things really are until she notices the guy has a knife in his chest.
Did she kill him? She knows no cop is going to believe her story, and so she tries to erase all the evidence of her visit - all the fingerprints and blood stains. And then she wanders back out, into the blinding Los Angeles light. And in a shot from high overhead, she looks like a laboratory animal, trapped in some kind of a test.
This feels like the beginning of an extraordinary thriller.
Unfortunately, "The Morning After" never lives up to its early promise - not as a thriller, anyway. The plot has some yawning gaps in it, and thriller plots should be watertight. But "The Morning After" is worth seeing anyway, because of the characters that it develops, and the performances of Fonda and Jeff Bridges in the two leads.
She plays an alcoholic actress who is long past her prime. He plays an ex-cop who happens to be repairing his car at the airport parking lot when she tumbles into his back seat and pleads with him to get her away from there, fast. The mere presence of Jeff Bridges in this movie is sort of a tease; we remember him from "Jagged Edge," when he was one of the prime murder suspects, and we wonder if it's a coincidence that he happens along this time.
Bridges lives in a Quonset hut, where he fixes things like toasters. This is all Fonda needs. She moves in the fast lane - her friends are bartenders and drag queens, and her estranged husband (Raul Julia) is the classiest hairdresser in Beverly Hills. What does she need with small appliance fans? But Bridges is sure and steady, and she needs a friend. Of course it goes without saying that they fall in love.
The plot of "The Morning After" is not nearly as good as the everyday lives of these characters; indeed, I can imagine a movie that would leave out the murder and simply follow the natural human development of the relationship between Fonda and Bridges. The thriller stuff isn't necessary, but as long as they put it it, couldn't they have worked just a little harder and made it plausible? Why, for example, didn't the cops find the bloody sheets under Fonda's sink? The whole murder plot gets such sloppy handling that maybe I shouldn't have been surprised by the big scene in which the identity of the murderer is revealed. I've seen a lot of revelations in a lot of murder movies, but rarely one as unsubtle as this one, where the plot secrets are simply blurted out in an unlikely speech. (Maybe I should be more grateful; I understand that this very scene - implausible and awkward as it is - was reshot because the original version was worse.) It would be a mistake, however, to dismiss this movie just because the plot is so shaky. I think it's worth considering because of the performances. Fonda and Bridges are wonderful in the film, and their relationship, based on secrets and resentments and private agendas, gets really interesting. They feel good together, and they have some dialogue that seems more alive than most romantic talk in the movies.
I liked what they did with the characters, and I also liked what director Sidney Lumet has done with the look of the movie. He creates a Los Angeles made out of great flat planes of cold pastels, and threatening sunlit open spaces. He pins the hungover Fonda on this canvas like a butterfly on the wall, and the visuals make the whole first hour of the movie much more threatening than it deserves to be.
Too bad they couldn't have done something about the screenplay.
