Dethany in Virtu/Noir
I'm creating an interactive novella featuring Dethany of "On the Fastrack" as she adopts a 1940s private eye persona and solves a crime in cyberspace. Along with John Lotshaw and my wife Teri Holbrook, we've created a unique blend of words and images, to be available this fall for the iPad. It will be called "Dethany in Virtu/Noir" and readers will be able to make choices determining the direction of the plot. (Currently it's being beta-tested by an intrepid team of volunteers.) Watch the video here for a preview.
The print version of the 19th "Kevin & Kell" collection "MOUSCAR" is now available for purchase here! Meanwhile, the 2013 strip collections are still available, both from Lulu and now on Amazon. "Kevin & Kell's" "Predator Camp" is on sale here. "Freshly Dethany" features the entire "On the Fastrack" year of 2010, when our favorite Goth joined the strip. (The book replaces "Dethany, the Corporate Goth" which is now permanently out of print.) The "Safe Havens" book also contains the calendar year of 2010, which was dominated by the cast's epochal summer in Las Vegas. Its title is "Viva Safe Havens." Don't forget that the 2009 "Fastrack: Bailout" and "Safe Havens: I Married a Mermaid" collections are also on sale.
Don't like dead trees? E-books for the "Kevin & Kell" collections "MOUSCAR" and "Predator Camp" are now available for purchase here for $8.99 each.

BWW Reviews: JERSEY BOYS Rocks LA Once More
by Don Grigware - Oct 6, 2014
Jersey Boys, called a jukebox musical, is an uber well-structured, Tony Award-winning show presented in a documentary-like format. It tells the true story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, retaining most of their original musical hits. There are lots of laughs, great rock and roll music and a realistic look at how the group got started in 1963, the difficulties they faced in staying together, their eventual breakup and ultimate survival. Director Clint Eastwood kept pretty close to the book of the show in his recent film adaptation, and the musical score, generated by its lead actors along with some tracks of the real Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, is dynamite. The show has played world wide and now returns on tour to the Pantages for 3 weeks only. Judging by its reception opening night, Jersey Boys keeps on captivating its audiences, young and old. This cast under the original direction of Des McAnuff is every bit as supreme as the original including the first national tour. (more...)

RI judge OKs lawsuit against Schilling, othersBy ERIKA NIEDOWSKI
The Associated Press | August 29,2013AP file Photo
Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling, center, is followed by members of the media in this file photo.PROVIDENCE, R.I. Most of a lawsuit claiming former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling and executives at his failed video game company duped the states economic development agency into approving a $75 million investment can move forward, a Rhode Island judge ruled Wednesday.
Superior Court Judge Michael Silversteins decision allows the Economic Development Corp. to proceed with its lawsuit against Schilling, former 38 Studios executives, former EDC officials and others. The suit alleges fraud, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, racketeering and conspiracy and says the board was misled into approving a $75 million loan guarantee for the company in 2010.
38 Studios named for Schillings old jersey number filed for bankruptcy last year, leaving the state on the hook for $112 million. About $90 million is outstanding.
With the decision, the EDC has cleared the first major hurdle in pursuing potential claims against Schilling and others. Among other things, the lawsuit claims the defendants knew the company would run out of money by 2012, but concealed that from the EDC board, which made the final decision to back the deal.
The agency had used the loan guarantee to lure 38 Studios from Maynard, Mass., to Rhode Island, which has struggled for years with a bad economy and high unemployment.
Gov. Lincoln Chafee, who opposed the deal before he took office and who serves as EDC board chairman, said he was gratified by the ruling.
It allows the important claims to proceed and is a significant first step to recovering the taxpayers losses, he said in a statement.
Jeffrey Schreck, who represents Schilling and others at 38 Studios, declined to comment. Schilling has previously called the lawsuit political and denied wrongdoing. He said at the time the suit was filed that the EDCs approval of the loan guarantee was made with its eyes wide open and with full understanding of any risks. Schilling has accused Chafee of not doing enough to help 38 Studios stay afloat and publicly called him a dunce of epic proportions.
The EDC sued in November, naming 14 defendants. Nine of those worked for the agency, including former Executive Director Keith Stokes and former Deputy Director Michael Saul, as well as its attorneys and financial advisers. Four of the defendants were executives or on the board at 38 Studios, including Schilling. The final defendant issued an insurance policy to 38 Studios.
The defendants moved to dismiss all or parts of the lawsuit, and the judge rejected most of their arguments.
The suit doesnt seek a specific dollar amount but wants repayment of the $75 million in bonds that supported the deal. It seeks triple damages from some of the defendants, including Schilling.
In his ruling, Silverstein said the state cant immediately sue to recover the entire $75 million because it hasnt lost that much. The bonds are being repaid over time. But the judge said the EDC might have a claim for future losses if and when the General Assembly approves the payments. He also said the agency could sue for fees and salaries paid to the defendants and damage to its reputation and credit.
The legislature this year appropriated an initial $2.5 million for payments on the bonds.
Max Wistow, an EDC lawyer, said he was quite pleased by the decision and looks forward to moving ahead with the case. In court, Wistow has described a fraudulent scheme in which the defendants both withheld information and provided false information.
Attorneys for Stokes and Saul argued they should be immune from liability under the public duty doctrine because they were public officials who were doing their jobs and following orders, but the judge ruled the doctrine doesnt apply in a case where an employer is suing an employee. Sauls attorney, Bruce Gladstone, said his client is disappointed by the ruling but called the judges finding that the EDC cannot now recover a $75 million loss well-reasoned.
Silverstein dismissed some counts against Barclays and Wells Fargo, which acted as bond placement agents for the EDC, and Starr Indemnity and Liability Company, which issued an insurance policy for 38 Studios.
The next hearing in the case is scheduled for Sept. 13.MORE IN National / World BusinessBRUSSELS European Union institutions are piling pressure on Google to change the way it...

- Best Mexican Food AroundAlessandroVIPDined on 6/21/2014While some people prefer the generic chain Tex-Mex restaurant that offer a consistently decent menu tailored for the average American palette, my wife and I enjoy authentic, regional Mexican cuisine. Picante gives us exactly that - excellent dishes mainly from the state of Chihuahua but also from other parts of Mexico. The great food and the very attentive and friendly staff makes Picante a pleasure to visit time and again.Special Features:
- Looking for GREAT Mexican?DandCHDined on 6/8/2014I was hoping this would be a neighborhood gem, but the food was only fair to good. I had a tamale, very heavy and not good flavor, a green tomatillo enchilada--eh. And a mole enchilada--substandard. The margaritas, although made individually--(I heard the blender) were bland and flavorless. The server was sweet and friendly.Special Features:

I ordered Adobo de Puerco, lean pork cooked in a savory sauce made with herbs, chiles, guajillo, ancho and costeno peppers served with white rice. Both were delicious. There was enough left over for another complete meal which we enjoyed again that very evening. Service was very friendly and helpful.

LANTANA, Fla. (AP) - Three children are recovering after being bitten by dogs in Palm Beach County.
Capt. David Walesky of the Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control told the Palm Beach Post (http://bit.ly/VUP4pS ) it wasn't clear how many dogs bit the children on Monday night.
Walesky says the injuries didn't appear to be serious. Two of the children are siblings. The third was visiting when the dog attack occurred.
Animal control officials are investigating. They say there were three dogs in the house.
The children's ages and the breed of the dogs were not released.

I didnt like that the bar was a cash only bar. The ballroom smelled like feet and being at a gym. We arrived at 10pm and left at 10:30pm. Music could have been a lil more updated.

star this review starred report as inappropriate
Same old thing. If you want to dance fine, but the recorded music was too loud for normal conversation in the ballroom. The number repeated advertised was 600. When I left at 8:30 PM there could not have been more than 100 attendees. Disappointing.

I like this recipe for egg rolls because it's baked. It uses ground pork, but I have substituted ground chicken and turkey successfully. I also have added bean sprouts to the mixture (reducing the amount of meat), stirring them into the cooked mixture with the other vegetables. Base recipe courtesy of Canadian Living magazine.

Better memory capacity speeds up time
Working memory is like a neural memo-pad. People with higher working memory capacity can hold more items in mind whilst solving a concurrent problem or performing a distracting task. There's been some excitement lately about the possibility that working memory can be improved through training, with knock-on benefits for IQ and academic attainment. A new study suggests such training should come with a footnote: "Improving your working memory could affect your perception of time".

The story in Undead Invasion, a game created by Bryan Mcdowell is a "collection" of various games I have enjoyed playing all put together in this masterpiece of a game. "Undead Invasion" happens when a nuke sent the world into an abyss and 80 years of underground developement and research has finally driven the survivors to conquer the multiverse in search of conquest or assimilation. It happens to be that 80 years after the abyss creatures of monstrocity walk the earth in search of live, beating, fresh meat and theres no rules that say your not on the menu!
There are forces at work that must have a "check". Your role will determine what happens not just in each universe but the entire Multiverse. Necromongers rampid conquering of worlds. Rouge Darkside powermongers gaining more power. Starfleets supposedly "peaceful exploration of new worlds". Giant replicating machines consuming entire universe materials. Genius psychopaths trying to change history. You never know who you can trust, and what you think may be reality may just be an illusion by some sadistic time traveling sonava-bitch.
It's not surprising characters have ornate skills after such epic events over time. But the time has come to search new worlds and seek out new civilizations to conquer and explore to become an all powerful force.
The gameplay is very tactical, tedious and is mostly menu-driven, therefore it doesn't makes sense to utilize 3d graphics. Keyboard, mouse, and buttons will help control the gameplay. The combat is automated but if you want to kill faster you will need to be pressing buttons and changing a lot of combat-driven interface tools, such as speed, angle, power etc. Progression is attained through killing and missions. Power is obtained by ethereal life energies. Voluntary or forced submission of their ethereal power will transfer the needed powers to help you become unstoppable. Just like everything in the multiverse it costs something to do anything. You will need to use these energies to exert force on the unwilling and enemies that try to deny or subvert your progression to becoming an all-powerfull entity.
Missions will be bounty captures, recon, assassinations, item collections, craft/building, negotiation, competitions, and some just pure luck(because shit happens.)
You can make a company in this game. You must first own slaves and property to facilitate this. The company is a big investment and should not be taken on without serious thought. The company finds, makes and creates random stuff and can be very lucrative but time consuming. Communication to the company is always available through the quasi-dead.
Slaves are what make the game easier. You don't have to own slaves in order to win the game, you can always hire the willing but it does cost something. You must get a property before you can accept slaves. During battles some will bow down to your authority in which case you must accept, trusting they will not double cross you later on, or strike them down for ultimate power and attainment of their soul.
You can own property in this game. It would be wise to aquire some slaves to help you maintain and defend your property.
The battles are not won alone and if your arms are chopped of there needs to be someone to sew on the replacements. Thats where the aids come into play. The aids can do all the work when it comes to looting, repair and maintenance of their master. But dont be fooled, they don't have skills and can't help in combat.
|Man's best friend
|An unpredictable but cunning aid
|A slow but undieing aid
|A somewhat smart aid

Missions will be bounty captures, recon, assassinations, item collections, craft/building, negotiation, competitions, and some just pure luck(because shit happens.)
There are threats everywhere and you cant just rely on hand to hand combat. That's why there are vehicles. Vehicles can be used when underwater,on the water,on the ground, in the air, and even in space. And these vehicles are rare and expensive and are not just doled out. Many are owned by major faction leaders and used for very specific battle campaigns.

Mini-games are kind of like a secondary mission to the main mission. There is a card game where you collect cards of enemies you have defeated or bought. There is a dice game that you can become rich from. There is a race game that you can bet on. There is a starfighter arcade game. There is a press "X" button game. There is a strategy based conquer checker game. Treasure hunt game. Math calculation game. A Chemistry combination game. A Prediction game.

Started this C# game just for fun and worked on and off since 2006. Eventually playing so many games becomes like enslaving yourself to a master; you never get what you want. If I had to choose between x and y, why not just create z to do x and y? Thus, breaking the chains and forging a new path with only the limit of my imagination and programming skill, I build my masterpiece. Plans are to expand game to LAN with CTF type gameplay.
The link below should serve up a copy of the game for you...
Q:Why does the game stop working?
A:There is probably a malfunction in my code, I'm not a professional programmer.
Q:Why should I play this crappy game?
A:You need to have a brain to play this game, unlike some other games.
Q:What happens if I beat the game?
A:Your computer might explode. You might have a seizure. Who knows?
If you decide I need to be contacted leave a comment to let me know!

For the majority of his career, Kelsay has been pegged as one of the two starting pass rushers for the Bills as they approach the season. Now with the additions of Mario Williams and Mark Anderson, Kelsay's role could be significantly scaled back.
To Kelsay, a team-oriented player through and through, he's just focused on one thing -- and it's not playing time.
"I'm here to win. I think everybody in this organization knows that. I've played a lot of snaps in my career, and to be honest with you, I'm looking forward to having a rotation. You can play fresher, I think we'll be more productive in doing so.
"When you've got guys like Mario [Williams] and Mark [Anderson] and Shawne [Merriman] and the younger guys -- I mean it's going to be a competitive training camp. Whoever we go with, it's nice to be able to look on the sideline and know that if you need a blow, somebody that's coming in is just as good and can provide great depth and production on your side of the ball, and specifically at our position.
"I'm excited. If it means that you're playing 30 snaps instead of 60, or 65-70 some games closer to 80, I'm all for it. It's something I'm actually looking forward to, and I think everyone in our room is."

UPDATE: body recovered at Mirror Lake
At approximately 12:15 p.m. Monday, August 19, the body of the 73-year-old male who was reported missing in Mirror Lake was located by the RCMP Dive Team.
The male was in approximately 45 feet of water, close to where he was last seen. The recovery proved more difficult than expected as the bottom of the lake is covered in a significant layer of mud, making visibility an issue.
The RCMP is still attempting to locate the next of kin, as such no name is being released. Foul play is not suspected and the case will be turned over to the BC Coroners Service.
Kaslo RCMP members and Emergency Health Services responded Sunday, Aug. 18 at approximately 1:00 p.m. to a report of a 73-year-old local area man, missing and presumed to have drowned in Mirror Lake.
Witnesses observed the male on the dock/dive platform. He subsequently dove into the lake and swam around for a short period of time (approximately 3-5 minutes). Witnesses reported that a faint call for help was heard and the elderly male was observed to be in distress. Two witnesses rendered assistance to the male but were unable to reach him before he had gone under the water. The male failed to resurface.
The RCMP Dive team has been called in and the file is under investigation.

Photos: Tracking the servers at Wimbledon
Summary: Grab yourself a Pimms and join us on a tour of IBM's facilities at Wimbledon, where the company aims to keep the scores and more
3 of 8Image
Like any high-tech centre these days, IBM's centre of control at Wimbledon is not designed to appeal to the eye. Screens are crammed everywhere and there is a temporary look about it all. This is not surprising, since IBM has the contract to cover many tennis events, so its tennis team is nomadic. They arrive on-site with just one week to set up their equipment, spend two weeks working and then have a week to tear everything down and move on.
Our picture shows the main office for data entry, which is just one of three IBM offices on the site. The others handle output for television and other outlets, the supply of statistical information, and the maintenance of the IBM Wimbledon Web site.
They are housed in a building situated to one side of Centre Court at Wimbledon. The building also acts as the press office and supports some parts of the systems not handled by IBM, including the "let" system and Cyclops, the system that decided if a serve landed in or out.
The basic data-input device is as simple as they come, and is attached to a laptop computer. The data is entered with each swing of the racquet and then passed to the central systems.
Most of the communications are carried over cables with some wireless backup. It seems astonishing in these "wireless-everywhere" days but, as IBM points out, there are good reasons for this.
Firstly, Wimbledon is a very compact site with around 30 courts sitting one next to the other. This means there are a lot of people in a small area, and a lot of mobile devices.
Add to that the fact that Wimbledon is built on quite a steep hill, as anyone who has seen "Henman Hill" on television can confirm, and you could have a mobile communications nightmare.
TV is ever-present at sporting events, and these days you can also watch it online. This means the IBM team needs two screens: one showing the TV picture and other showing the Web version.
Video-streaming technology has developed very quickly over the past few years. If you stand in the control centre you can easily tell the difference between the two images, but they are much closer in quality than they were just 12 months ago.

Enrollment Rates and Registration
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do

Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Mark Twain

We hope you will join us on our 2015 adventure. Each summer we are gratified at the strong community that forms among our writers. In addition to participants who bring an eagerness to improve writing skills and re-awaken creativity, successful participants are typically:
- curious and eager to meet other like-minded travelers,
- flexible in new situations; adaptable to rustic surroundings,
- positive and appreciative, willing to ask questions and enter discussions,
- open to a culture different from home–new foods, landscape, customs,
- able to travel lightly and manage luggage unaided,
- sure-footed and agile (many of Varenna's rough stone pathways involve climbing steps).
Please contact Kathryn if you have questions or concerns about any facet of the retreat.
Enrollment for the 2015 program is open and accepted on a first-received basis. To provide an optimal experience for everyone, the retreat is limited to ten writers. The program usually fills quickly, so early registration is highly recommended. Your non-refundable deposit guarantees your place.
Rates: (NOTE: The rates below are those charged in 2014. We will post the 2015 rates as soon as Villa Monastero confirms them; we are working on keeping costs down)
[$3, 400] for participants paying from the U. S.
[$3, 500] for participants paying from outside the U. S.
See below for discounts on Enrollment Rates
Enrollment Rate includes:
- Transport from Milano to Varenna ,
- Five mornings of instruction, workshop and materials; at least one personal consultation with the instructor.
- Six nights single occupancy accommodation,,
- Two meals daily—full breakfast and either lunch or an evening meal with wine,
- Afternoon activities and excursions with guide and translator; all entry fees.
NOTE: Enrollment Rate does not include transportation to and from Itlay.
Non-writing companions: Since much of the week involves social contact, our writers value the opportunity for the solitude afforded by a single-occupancy room; an important part of the program includes time to process the instructional experience. However, based on available accommodations, it may be possible to welcome companions who do not attend workshop sessions or receive instruction If there is room, these companions would benefit from all else: accommodations, meals, and cultural excursions. However, because Varenna is small, it is critical that companions be independent travelers prepared to hike, paint, or photograph, for example, during the morning workshop time period.
Getting Started
- Enrollment Contract: Reserve your place in the retreat by filling out the two-page Enrollment Contract found here. This requires that you fill out the form, print it, sign it, scan it, and return it to Kathryn at firstname.lastname@example.com as an attachment.
- Non-Refundable Deposit: Make the non-refundable deposit of $700 via PayPal, below. Deposits made before May 1, 2015, will earn a discount of $100.00 on the balance of the enrollment fee.
- Balance of the enrollment fee: due July 1, 2015. The balance may be paid by a U. S. check for a $50.00 discount. Contact Kathryn for an address.
- The deposit and subsequent balance of the Enrollment Fee will be refunded only if Italy, in Other Words cancels the workshop.
Essential Information
- Buying Airfare: Please wait to purchase non-refundable airline tickets until we confirm minimum enrollment (unless you are planning on travel to Italy whether or not the retreat takes place).
- Retreat Confirmation Date: At the latest, we will confirm the program enrollment by July 15, 2015.
- Late Enrollment: Enrollment after June 1, if the maximum number of participants is not met, is dependent on availability of hotel accommodations. Please contact Kathryn before paying the deposit after April 15.
- Travel Insurance: Although it's not required, we strongly recommend that you purchase travel and trip cancellation insurance in case of illness or any other unanticipated circumstances.

Well I don't know anything about early 20th century butchery practices in the remote corners of the Commonwealth, but I will observe that everyone holding a knife is wearing leggings/gaiters. I'd guess that the leggings people are employed in the messier, blood-splatterier areas of the company.
I suspect the dogs are an integral part of the cleaning crew.
Look at the left arm of the man holding one of the dogs. There is another dog with only his head showing.
The dogs seem to have specific roles at the shop. The one on the right is dedicated to exemplifying relaxation irrespective of surroundings, while the other two have been assigned to keep watch for unholy things erupting from the earth. Apparently, one is just about to.
ever seen such a happy and contented looking group of workers from that time period?
What a crew! Does anyone know why some are wearing tied on (poor man's) leggings, while others are not? Also - The dude standing third from right, what kind of cap is that and where do I get one?
I'm just glad the young man on the right in the front row does not live next door!
I sure hope the names of those dogs aren't Beef, Pork and Chicken.

The world has lost almost half of its original forest cover, due largely to booming population growth and agricultural expansion. But even though these forests are gone, there is still a tremendous amount of underutilized and unproductive land that has the potential to provide valuable ecosystem services if trees are returned to the landscape. Clean water, improved soil fertility and income from forest products are just a few of the services that these lands, once restored, could provide.
So where in the world are the greatest opportunities for restoration? In collaboration with the University of Maryland and International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and as part of the Global Partnership on Forest Landscape Restoration, World Resources Institute (WRI) recently updated its Atlas of Forest Landscape Restoration Opportunities. We found that more than 2 billion hectares of land worldwide have the potential to be restored-and many of them are located in some unexpected places.
What Do We Mean by Restoration?As we noted in a recent blog post, restoration isn't just about planting trees-it involves improving the productivity of landscapes that are deforested or degraded. Through a geospatial analysis involving dozens of datasets ranging from population density to land cover to climate, we produced a global map showing where deforested and degraded forest areas have the greatest potential to be restored. The map classifies the type of restoration opportunity using three main categories:
• Wide-scale restoration aims to restore dense forests to the landscape. This type of restoration is most feasible in deforested or degraded landscapes with low population density ( 10 people/km2) that are also areas where forests formerly dominated the landscape.
• Mosaic restoration integrates trees into mixed-use landscapes, such as agricultural lands and settlements. This is the most common opportunity. Trees in these regions can support people by improving water quality, increasing soil fertility and boosting other ecosystem services. This type of restoration works best in deforested or degraded landscapes with moderate population density (10 - 100 people/km2).
• Remote restoration is reserved for deforested or degraded areas that are completely unpopulated and located far away from human settlements, such as northern Canada and Siberia. The reduced density of forests in these areas is likely due to fire and pests rather than human interventions, and their remoteness makes them a more costly, lower-priority restoration opportunity.
Where Can We Find Restoration Opportunities?
On a continental scale, Africa has the greatest area of opportunity for both wide-scale and mosaic restoration. At more than 720 million hectares, this area is roughly equivalent to the entire opportunity area for North and South America combined.
