The Game Doesn't Remain The Same
I think some of my frustrations with running games the past few years centered around a refusal to give up on the weekend-long gaming epics. Instead of all day Saturday and Sunday to game, I now had four hours or so, every other weekend. Other stuff kept dropping into my schedule.
Time didn't matter as much in those earlier, longer games. It was nothing to spend 4-5 hours on a silly side quest or just BSing. When you play that much, you've got the time for it. We could knock out a campaign arc in a couple of weeks. That same one might take almost a year now.
That doesn't mean I still can't have the marathon gaming sessions; we're trying for one this weekend. But they're the special exception now, and not the rule.
I think sometimes it's almost taboo to talk about these differences online, almost as if we're lesser gamers or something for our circumstances changing. As with any fandom, the extremes always are out there; the ones with seemingly endless budgets, endless time, endless commentary on how they have both. But that's not the world we live in. Adjustments must be made.
I try now to make time for catching up and general talk before the game starts; it helps keep things more focused. Additionally, I've tried (with mixed results) to handle a lot of side quests and the like "off-table", either via email during the week or on a message board.
I've also had an eye towards campaigns that aren't so reliant on player attendance; missing a session shouldn't be the kiss of death. For my upcoming Rifts campaign, the players will be part of a mercenary company hired to protect a small town; a missing player can be on "temporary duty" elsewhere without too much of an impact. Of course, you aren't going to get any XP for missing a session, but I'm not going to stop play or kill your character, either.
Some older players, now strapped for time, attempt to get their gaming in with one-shot games here and there wherever they can. That's fine, but for me and my group, I think we still see a benefit in having recurring, longer campaigns. Yes, you can do it as kids, family, work, and other responsibilities crowd your plate; you just need to be smart about it, and realize what worked in college might not work now.
Embarrassingly, 18 year-old me saw every campaign session as an epic tale, one that would eventually put into novelization or even the silver screen (I told you it was embarrassing). 31 year-old me knows rolling dice and having fun trump any sort of "art" I'm trying to create. We're not there to create perfect fiction, we're there to game, with all the warts, weird twists, illogical jumps, and craziness that entails. I think when people look back at games, they don't recall those warts so much; they recall the overall impression it left.
The actual scheduling of RPG night might have to bend to reality somewhat, but it's my goal that in that four-hour period of gaming we do manage, we don't have to.

I hear you - I've found that you can't really run 8-hour games when you have work or families. I've found that most of my games have a cut-off point at approx 4 hours (that I write in) so that we can start afresh without trying to remember where we were in combat.

I too had those long sessions when in high school and college. Now I prefer 4 hour sessions. I have time to do longer sessions, but I don't find that I'm interested in playing more than about 4 hours at a time. After that I'm ready to take a break and do something else.

Good & True.
I am getting ready to run a new game, Dragon AGE rules.
For a while I was thinking of converting Paizo's awesome APs or doing something in Forgotten Realms . . . but then I realized I just wanted to roll dice and let the craziness go. SO we are going 'old-school' for us - ill-defined homebrew . . . a world that needs heroes.

@ Patrick, Bill: I think 4 hours is a pretty common time frame for a lot of gamers with families and other obligations.
@MatthewAC: I think set up and type of game becomes much more important as your time to game increase. Ill-defined homebrew works for me!

We play about six hour sessions, and we've met every Thursday night for almost ten years now. Until we went to GenCon last year, we didn't realize how lucky we were to be doing even that. Turns out we're spoiled.

We play about 5-6 hours, once a week. Surprisingly, I could play more, but it's the youngsters that have busy schedules.

I get to play an 8 hour sessions about once every 5-6 weeks. I'd much rather play more frequently, but that's what I can fit in.

We keep a regular group going on an evening during the week. We're all in our 30s now. We have a player minimum of 3 and a max of 6. I fear we might lose another player soon (who's work has changed) and then we go through the difficulty of finding another.
The best thing is that I still get that buzz leading up to game night and the thrill afterwards. I can barely sleep once I get home as I am still ringing from the fun night with friends!
As it is a work-night the timbre of the game has relaxed a lot. I doubt I would run campaigns that delved deep into racial prejudice (through the medium of Sci Fi) or the corruption of privilege but I do try to make them just interesting enough. It's a balance - and not an easy one!

It's a problem I know well. When young, we'd all get together at some friend's house, get the cheap pizza and the cheap soda and game for the entire weekend. Thanks to the incredibly slow level advancement back in the day, while there might be some tales to tell, once the 5th-7th level barrier was hit, things would slow down and almost require all those fun side quests. Nowadays the 4-hour thing seems build into the level advancement making characters shoot up very quickly. Not necessarily a bad thing but in terms of depth and continuity...

7 Stocks Ripping Higher With Big Volume
Strayer Education
Strayer Education (STRA) provides post-secondary education services. This stock is trading up 4.9% at $98.28 in recent trading.
Today's Volume: 152,000Average Volume: 169,383 Volume % Change: 50%. From a technical perspective, STRA is gapping up sharply here with decent volume. This move is coming right off its 200-day moving average of $93.30, and it's pushed the stock into breakout territory since STRA has taken out some near-term overhead resistance at $94.81. Traders should now look to play the next major breakout for STRA. That trade will trigger once STRA takes out some past overhead resistance at $103.68 with high-volume. Look for a sustained move or close above $103.68 with volume that's near or above 169,383 shares. Traders can look to get long above $94.81 to anticipate that breakout, with a stop right around that level or higher. If we get that breakout above $103.68 soon, then STAA could easily hit its next significant overhead resistance level at $111.25.

text: And the search is on... that's for the Port Huron Area School District Board of Education as they choose the Michigan Association of School Boards as the organization to aid in their quest to replace Superintendent Ron Wollen, who'll be retiring at the end of the current school year. The action came Monday night, at the board's regular meeting, with the MASB described as a non-profit group. Board President, Jeff Stout, says if they don't find a suitable replacement for Wollen, they'll scrap the process and start over. The board began their regular meeting with an organizational session, which saw Stout re-elected president, with Rasha Demashkieh re-elected Vice President, Ann Murphy re-elected as Secretary, and Garth Kriewall re-elected Treasurer. Last night's session also saw a curriculum report on Port Huron High School, with Stout noting that great improvements had been made in several key basic core subjects at the school, with double-digit progress seen. Today sees the board meeting for a special session which will see data reviews and reports on the various schools in the district.

Tonometry is a test to measure the pressure inside your eyes. The test is used to screen for glaucoma
Intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement; Glaucoma test; Applanation
There are several methods of testing for glaucoma.
The most accurate method measures the force needed to flatten a certain area of the cornea.
A slightly different method uses a handheld device similar in shape to a pencil. Again, you are given numbing eye drops to prevent any discomfort. The device touches the outside of the eye and instantly records eye pressure.
The last method is the noncontact method (air puff). In this method, your chin rests on a padded stand.
Remove contact lenses before the examination. The dye can permanently stain contact lenses.
Tell your health care provider if you have corneal ulcers and eye infections
or a history of glaucoma in your family. Always tell your doctor or nurse what medicines you are taking.
If numbing eye drops were used, you should not have any pain. In the noncontact method, you may feel mild pressure on your eye.
Tonometry is a test to measure the pressure inside your eyes. The test is used to screen for glaucoma.
People over age 40, especially African Americans, have the highest risk for developing glaucoma. Regular eye exams can help detect glaucoma early. If it is detected early, glaucoma can be treated before too much damage is done.
The test may also be done before and after eye surgery.
A normal result means your eye pressure is within the normal range. The normal eye pressure range is 10 - 21 mmHg.
How thick your cornea is can affect measurements. Normal eyes with thick corneas have higher readings and normal eyes with thin corneas have lower readings. A thin cornea with a high reading may be very abnormal (the actual eye pressure will be higher than shown on the tonometer).
Currently, a corneal thickness measurement (pachymetry) is needed to get a correct pressure measurement.
Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
Abnormal results may be due to:
If the applanation method is used, there is a small chance the cornea may be scratched (corneal abrasion
). This will normally heal itself within a few days.

Acer America has introduced its first quad-core tablet in North America, the Acer Iconia Tab A510 with an NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor. Yes, we will review it! So stay tuned for our coverage. In the mean time, here is more info on the Acer Iconia Tab A510:
In addition, the new 10.1-inch tablet Acer Iconia Tab A510 comes with the full suite of Polaris Office 3.5, Acer Print for wireless printing, Android 4.0 OS (Ice Cream Sandwich) and is powered by NVIDIA Tegra 3 Quad Core Processor and high-performance 12-Core GeForce NVIDIA GPU. This processor provides a unique Super 4-PLUS-1 Quad Core CPU design with a fifth Battery Saver Core that allows up to four cores to be dedicated to demanding tasks such as watching video and playing the next generation of graphics-intense mobile games.
When the tablet takes on everyday tasks, the fifth Battery Saver Core becomes engaged in place of the other four cores, ultimately using less power and improving battery life. The 9800mAh battery, one of the highest capacity models in the industry, further improves battery life, so customers can enjoy their tablet for up to 12 hours of video playback.
Additionally, the Acer A510 can be taken to a meeting to deliver a presentation; it supports HDMI to VGA for quick connection to projector.
Thrilling Extras for Entertainment, Connectivity
The Acer Iconia Tab A510 features a 720P 10.1-inch WXGA (1280x800 resolution) HD display. The Acer A510's 16:10 aspect ratio and wide 85-degree viewing angle ensure an optimal viewing experience that is further improved by Dolby Mobile 3 audio. Plus, the display is a 10-point touch capacitive screen.
The Acer A510 has 1GB of RAM, an integrated 32GB of flash storage and a Micro-SD card reader that supports up to 32GB Micro-SD cards.
The Acer Iconia Tab A510 keeps consumers connected to Wi-Fi networks with reliable Acer 802.11a/b/g/n wireless technology. Plus, the integrated Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR (enhanced data rate) allows consumers to connect the tablet to a variety of other devices, such as headsets and printers.
The 1MP fixed-focused front-facing camera has an improved zoom, making it ideal for video conferencing. The 5MP rear-facing camera is auto-focusing, and provides the ability to take snapshots while recording HD video.
The Acer Iconia Tab A510 is ready for hours of entertainment with popular pre-loaded apps such as Kindle for reading and Netflix for instant movie enjoyment. Google Music allows customers to create and enjoy their own personal playlists on their tablet. The preloaded Tegra Zone Android app brings customers direction to the best Android games that are optimized for NVIDIA Tegra powered tablets.
Olympic Edition Highlights Sleek, Usable Design
The Acer Iconia Tab A510 is a special Olympic Games Tablet Edition of the Acer Iconia Tab line. It features the Acer and Olympic logos on the chassis to celebrate the company's sponsorship of the upcoming 2012 Olympic Games. The new tablet was designed with on-the-go usability in mind. The chassis' soft-touch finish is comfortable to hold and buttons such as volume and screen lock are well-placed. It easily fits in a purse, briefcase or book bag, as it measures only 10.2(w) x 6.9(d) x 0.43(h) inches and weighs just over 24 ounces.
Available in U.S. and Canada Starting at $449.99
The new Acer Iconia Tab A510 is available for pre-sale starting today at national electronics retailers in the United States and Canada at a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $449.99 USD and CAD. The premiere models are the Acer A510-10s32 (silver) and Acer A510-10k32 (black). Customers can purchase the sleek protective case to protect the Acer A510 tablet.

It is available through Acer at a price of $39.99.

Pork Chops 101: 18 of Martha's Best Recipes
Perfectly cooked pork chops are a thing of beauty juicy and rose-colored on the inside and seared golden-brown on the outside. Fall ingredients like apples and onions suit pork particularly well, but lighter flavors, including lemon and herbs, are just as delicious. Whether you have 20 minutes or two hours to cook dinner, the following pork chop recipes from Martha Stewart are a smart call.
If you prefer the loin to the chop, check out our collection of easy pork tenderloin recipes.
Bourbon-Glazed Smoked Pork Chops
The glaze is irresistible thanks to a combination of flavor notes from sweet to spicy to smokey.

text: 4 Vast improvmentVorodir | 25/12/2011 | See all Vorodir's reviews (8)Great improvment on the design of the actual box compared to my old white bulky one, the built in Wifi is brilliant and there is a noticeable difference in the noise of the fans. The choice to install games on the box for better quality is a great idea and doesnt take too long to complete the process. 250GB storeage gives plenty of room for updates, addons and game installations. Only downside is its not as quiet as I was expecting and often get a loud noise from the fans like its revving its engine.

Is Nestle Involved in Murder Of Colombian Union Leader?
The Nestlé logo.

Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
On the night of September 5, 2005, two paramilitaries from the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia hijacked Luciano Romero's taxi as he drove through his home city of Valledupar. They took him to a nearby farm, where they tortured then murdered him. His body was found the next day, dumped behind an army garrison, with a handkerchief stuffed in his mouth and 50 stab wounds; one more victim in Colombia's dirty war against trade unionists.
However, seven years on, and while Romero may only be one of approximately 3,000 victims of that war, his murder is now taking center stage in a legal battle to define corporate responsibility in conflict zones. This battle is taking place not in Colombia, but in Switzerland, home to one of the world's biggest multi-nationals and Romero's former employers – Nestle.
The struggle to hold Nestle accountable for its alleged role in Romero's death began with the 2007 conviction of Romero's killers – itself a rarity in a country with a 95% impunity rate in unionist murders. When passing sentence, Judge José Nirio Sánchez ordered an investigation into the intellectual authors of the crime that would scrutinize the role of not only the paramilitary warlord who commanded Romero's killers, but also the management at the Nestle subsidiary where Romero worked.
While that investigation has yet to show any sign of progress, the case has been taken up by Romero's union, SINALTRAINAL, and human rights group the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR). In 2012, the organizations filed a criminal complaint in Switzerland demanding the prosecution of Nestle for Romero's murder.
The powdered milk factory where Romero worked, CICOLAC, was Nestlé's first investment in Colombia, when it opened the site in 1944. The multi-national sold CICOLAC in 1982, only to buy it back again in 1998. At the time of Nestlé's return to Valledupar, the northern state of Cesar, where the city is located, was under the control of the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (AUC) paramilitary army.
According to the testimonies of demobilized AUC leaders, the paramilitaries had been invited into the region by members of the region's economic elite, who were tired of the campaign of constant harassment, kidnappings and extortion waged by leftist guerilla groups. Cesar became a fiefdom of Rodrigo Tovar Pupo, alias 'Jorge 40,' a member of Valledupar high society whose paramilitary empire stretched across north east Colombia.
The Cesar paramilitary block commanded by Jorge 40 was financed by the region's cattle ranchers, dairy farmers and other land owners and economic interests. Among them was CICOLAC – according to AUC Leader Salvatore Mancuso, who named the company in the hearings that followed the demobilization of the AUC in 2006.
The paramilitaries in Cesar employed their favored terror tactics in the battle against the guerrillas, and launched a dirty war against anyone they deemed a guerrilla "collaborator" – community leaders, leftist activists, educators and, above all, unionists.
In 1993, Harry Triana became the first CICOLAC unionist in Valledupar to fall victim to that war when killed in front of his children and work colleagues. The next came in 1996, when José Manuel Becerra Pacheco was beheaded and Alejandro Matias Vanstrahlen was shot. The following year, Toribio De La Hoz was shot while celebrating his 42nd birthday in his home and in 1999 Victor Mieles and his wife were abducted in front of one of Nestlé's Cesar factories and later murdered.
Despite the violence, Luciano Romero emerged as a leading figure in the local union movement. "He was a person who had really absorbed the union's values," said Alfonso Baron, a friend of Romero's and a local SINALTRAINAL leader who has worked at CICOLAC since 1986. "He was a good friend, a good companion, he showed solidarity and fraternity, he was respectful, a hard worker and he looked out for others."

I want to be a monk one day, and since Ajahn Brahm is my favourite teacher, I wonder whether there is any possibility of me being his disciple.
Does anyone know whether he takes in disciples? I haven't contacted him yet, and on his website it says he doesn't use e-mail for contacts.
And btw, I'm not talking about the near future, but probably in about 3-4-5 years.

Sheaffer has upgraded its ink cartridge design for improved functionality - delivering better color identification and transportability. The color of the cartridge is now the same as the ink, making it much easier to identify the color of ink inside. For Jet Black, Blue, and Blue-Black the cartridges remain transparent but now they have an end cap which clearly identifies the ink color. This new feature still lets consumers easily see the level of ink in the cartridge. In addition, the new cartridges are now transportable. This is possible as the new cartridges can only be pierced on one end. This allows a traveler to carry an un-pierced cartridge in a fountain pen chamber, without the risk of leakage during transportation, and especially during air travel - a common concern among fountain pen aficionados.

Food may not be safe to eat during and after an emergency. Safe water for drinking, cooking, and personal hygiene includes bottled, boiled, or treated water. Your state, local, or tribal health department can make specific recommendations for boiling or treating water in your area.
Note: Do not use your fireplace for cooking until the chimney has been inspected for cracks and damage. Sparks may escape into your attic through an undetected crack and start a fire.
- If you prepare formula with boiled water, let the formula cool sufficiently before giving it to an infant.
- Clean feeding bottles and nipples with bottled, boiled, or treated water before each use.
- Wash your hands before preparing formula and before feeding an infant. You can use alcohol-based hand sanitizer for washing your hands if the water supply is limited
CDC recommends discarding wooden cutting boards, baby bottle nipples, and pacifiers . These items cannot be properly sanitized if they have come into contact with contaminated flood waters. Clean and sanitize food-contact surfaces in a four-step process:
After an emergency, especially after flooding, drinking water may not be available or safe to drink for personal use. As a result, residents may have to find a source of safe drinking water or know how to treat their water for use in certain activities, such as drinking, making ice, washing hands, and brushing teeth.
Note: Caffeinated drinks and alcohol dehydrate the body, which increases the need for drinking water.
Floods and other disasters can damage drinking water wells and lead to aquifer and well contamination. Flood waters can contaminate well water with livestock waste, human sewage, chemicals, and other contaminants which can lead to illness when used for drinking, bathing, and other hygiene activities.
Before an emergency or a temporary problem with a community water system, a community drinking water treatment facility should have an emergency plan in the event that service is disrupted. Water treatment facilities monitor drinking water to meet federal and state regulations.
Water often can be made safe to drink by boiling, adding disinfectants, or filtering.
IMPORTANT: Water contaminated with fuel or toxic chemicals will not be made safe by boiling or disinfection. Use a different source of water if you know or suspect that water might be contaminated with fuel or toxic chemicals.
If you don't have safe bottled water, you should boil water to make it safe. Boiling is the surest method to make water safer to drink by killing disease-causing organisms, including viruses, bacteria, and parasites.
You can improve the flat taste of boiled water by pouring it from one container to another and then allowing it to stand for a few hours, OR by adding a pinch of salt for each quart or liter of boiled water.
If the water is cloudy,
If the water is clear,
If you don't have safe bottled water and if boiling is not possible, you often can make water safer to drink by using a disinfectant such as unscented household chlorine bleach or iodine. These can kill most harmful organisms, such as viruses and bacteria, but are not as effective in controlling more resistant organisms such as the parasites Cryptosporidium and Giardia.
To disinfect water,
Chlorine dioxide tablets are another disinfectant that now is available in some outdoor stores. This disinfectant has proven to be effective against pathogens, including Cryptosporidium, if the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
Many portable water filters can remove disease-causing parasites such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia from drinking water. If you are choosing a portable water filter, try to pick one that has a filter pore size small enough to remove both bacteria and parasites. Most portable water filters do not remove viruses.
Carefully read and follow the manufacturer's instructions for the water filter you intent to use. After filtering, add a disinfectant such as iodine, chlorine, or chlorine dioxide to the filtered water to kill any viruses and remaining bacteria. For more information about water filters, see the Water Treatment Resources section.
To learn more about water filters and treatments that can remove microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, and parasites (such as Cryptosporidium), see the following resources:
Alternative sources of clean water can be found inside and outside the home. DO NOT DRINK water that has an unusual odor or color, or that you know or suspect might be contaminated with fuel or toxic chemicals; use a different source of water.
The following are possible sources of water:
Listen to reports from local officials for advice on water precautions in your home. It may be necessary to shut off the main water valve to your home to prevent contaminants from entering your piping system.
Water from sources outside the home must be treated as described in Make Water Safe.
Never use water from the following sources:

Their reason? To protest the increasingly violent crackdown on the people of Bahrain by their own government. As of this writing, formulaone.com is down as promised and another website, F1-racers.net, is displaying a message from Anonymous that claims responsibility. In its press release, Anonymous addresses Bernie Ecclestone, president and CEO of Formula One, directly,... Read More

Entrepreneurship Training Helps Women in India
In India an unlikely entrepreneur gives back
Historically, most of the tribal villagers of Gambharia, India, earned a meager living as agricultural laborers. They worked hard during the monsoon season, but were unemployed the remainder of the year, leaving them in a cycle of poverty.
Saraswati Devi had the opportunity to break the cycle of poverty when she enrolled in the Intel-Udyogini School of Entrepreneurship. Along with thousands of other women in the program, she acquired business management and digital literacy skills, as well as training in communication, healthcare, and gender issues. She also found the confidence to speak out and help transform life in her village.
Devi and several other villagers began producing lac, a resinous material derived from secretions of insects found in Jharkhand forests. Lac is used in applications from medicines to jewelry. Devi now runs a Village Service Center that enables local entrepreneurs to combine their efforts to maximize profits. The center provides insurance and healthcare services, and has a market that allows villagers to purchase essentials locally rather than being forced to travel to distant markets.
Devi also volunteers for a literacy program. In recognition of her achievements, the government selected her service center to house a rural library to help boost literacy, and Devi now runs a night school at the library. Dainik Jagran, India's most widely read newspaper, recognized Devi for her work to reduce poverty and bring essential services, opportunities—and hope—to others in her village.
Tribal women learn skills
Saraswati Devi overcame tremendous odds to redefine herself as an entrepreneur. She is one of thousands of tribal women who have gained business, digital literacy, and life skills through the Intel-Udyogini School of Entrepreneurship.
Entrepreneurs cooperate
Devi has helped create a cooperative center that enables local entrepreneurs to maximize their profits. The center houses a store for essential goods and a library where Devi has opened a night school.
In her own words
"Now I'm able to take care of all the needs of my family very effectively. I want to educate my daughter, too, and make her a good citizen of our country."
--Saraswati Devi

Definitions used here: Batch powers are powers like Sorcery, Cosmic power, Elemental Control, and Energy Control - powers that have no real innate abilities and are readily separable collections of other powers. Composite powers are powers whose effects are not readily separable but still have multiple different effects (Super-Speed). Base powers are core powers whose effects cannot be broken down - these would be similar to HERO powers.
Two questions -
I. Exclusivity Question:
How does exclusivity work within power stunts of batch powers? Are power stunts listed in the text automatically assumed to fall under the secondary effect rule, or is that only for custom powers?
A) If they are exclusive as per secondary effect, what does this imply for composite powers? For example - Super Speed has Spinning as a power stunt. Spinning is basically a defensive effect, and Super-Speed has defensive components to it. Since you can't separate out the defensive parts of Super-Speed from the rest of it batch-style, are Spinning and Super-Speed exclusive?
B) If they are exclusive as per rules on secondary effect, how do we deal with powers that are given as stunts but don't share effects with their base power. Ex. Spinning and Tunnelling.
C) Sorcery's spell categories do not quite match up with effect categories. Which is used for determining exclusivity?
II. Cost of Power Stunts:
The basic question is, given the basic formula for determining the rank of power stunts with extras and flaws, "[Original Cost] / [Second Powers Cost] = New Rank (rounded down)", how do you determine the "original cost" for batch powers? Is it i) the cost of the base power (7, for Sorcery) or ii) the cost of the power containing the effect which the stunt is based off of (whatever spell effect is chosen as your initial pick for that spell category)? The FAQ says:
Do extras and power stunts that duplicate other powers work at the same rank as the base power?
Yes, unless stated otherwise, extras and power stunts that duplicate
another power work at the rank of the base power.
But Steve clarifies this by saying that variations on the formula above (such as adding extras) counts as "stated otherwise".
A) If the answer is i) then sorcerors will be able to load 5 extras on to every 2 point power they pick up as a power stunt. This is a balance problem. It is also indicated by the way the Alternate Form power stunts work, although there are exclusivity questions raised there as well.
B) If the answer is ii) then sorcerors will be encouraged to pick the more expensive base powers for each category (Possession, Mental Blast, and Healing). This is a minor problem, however, compared to the implications that this system has for determining the rank of power stunts off of composite powers. Which effects would count as defensive, say, in Super Speed to determine the effective rank of Spinning? It would also make impossible the use of power stunts which do not share effects with their base power (again, Spinning and Tunnelling), since the Original Cost would be 0.
