Native Americans, including the Lenape Indians, inhabited the area long before Europeans arrived.In 1524, the first European to the area was Giovanni da Verrazzano, an Italian sailing for the French. The French never colonized the area.English explorer Henry Hudson rediscovered the mouth of the Hudson River in 1609 and explored Hudson Bay in 1610. Like other explorers, Hudson was actually looking for a shortcut to Asia. He did not found any settlement there.French explorer Champlain mapped the east coast of America from Cape Bretton, Nova Scotia, to Cape Cod, Mass in 1607, not quite far enough south to find (or found) New York, but close.Peter Minuit was a German but was a director of the Dutch West India Co. He reached Manhattan Island in 1624 and purchased it from the Indians with beads, ribbons, and trinkets valued at the amount of 60 guilders, or about $24.This became the colony of New Amsterdam (Niewe Amsterdam) in 1625. That is the date that appears on the Seal of the City of New York.New Amsterdam separated the English colonies of New England from the other English colonies in the south. Clashes between the Dutch and the English were inevitable. England's Charles II claimed all the Dutch land, and in 1664 he gave it to his brother, the Duke of York.The Dutch weren't prepared to fight the English, so in 1664, New Amsterdam became New York.New York City as we know it (Manhattan, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island) was founded in 1898. Before they were just separate boroughs, each with their own jurisdiction.The state of New York was founded in July 26, 1788.
Are your children young enough to not know who Osama bin Laden was but old enough to have it explained to them? How do you tell your children about who he was and what he did?
Great insight into NYC, i never new that

Find out about exhibitions, activities, tours and talks at Birmingham Museums
Aston Hall, Blakesley Hall and Soho House provide a choice of spectacular and elegant locations for your dream wedding.
26th July 2013
Birmingham Museums Trust has today announced the appointment of Dr Ellen McAdam to the position of Director.
Dr McAdam is currently Head of Museums and Collections for Glasgow Life and will take up her new post with Birmingham Museums in the autumn. After reading archaeology at Edinburgh and Oxford, Dr McAdam undertook post-doctoral research in museums in the Near East, UK, USA and Europe, and was Research Fellow of the British School of Archaeology in Iraq. Returning to Britain, she worked for a number of heritage organisations before joining Glasgow Museums in 2001. She has lectured and published widely on Near Eastern and British archaeology and is an Honorary Lecturer in Archaeology at the University of Glasgow.
Like Birmingham Museums Trust, Glasgow Life has a large portfolio of nine museums and is home to an internationally significant collection, housed in attractions including the Burrell Collection, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and the Riverside Museum. Glasgow Life has had charitable status since 2007
Honorary Aldermen Len Clark, Chairman of Birmingham Museums Trust said: "We are delighted to be welcoming Ellen to the organisation. Her vast knowledge and experience of the museums and heritage sector will be invaluable and we look forward to her leading Birmingham Museums Trust into the next phase."
Dr McAdam said: "This is a wonderful opportunity to work with a collection of international significance, fantastic venues and a highly skilled team. Birmingham is a great city with an exciting cultural offer, and I look forward to exploring it".
Birmingham Museums Trust is the largest museums service in the UK to go to Trust status, and was established in April 2012 to encourage greater collaboration across all venues: Aston Hall, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, Blakesley Hall, Museum Collections Centre, Museum of the Jewellery Quarter, Sarehole Mill, Soho House, Thinktank and Weoley Castle.
The independent trust is focused on sustaining and developing key partnerships within the city, regionally, nationally and internationally, in order to deliver excellence in audience-focussed museum services, and meet the needs of Birmingham communities.
For more information on Birmingham Museums and the events and activities at all venues, visit www.bmag.org.uk

Oh no...not God Save the Queen....
Most are poor, God Save the Queen is one of the worst. You'd think the least they can do with our national anthem, even if you can't get a nice piece of music, would be to make it at least vaguely to do with Britain. But I digress.
The French have a notable exception.
I was hopeful for the Spanish national anthem when I found it had no words (thus bypassing the standard issue theocratic/royalty-loving/warmongering direness), but later found it's quite a dull tune.
"Your averages, captain, coaches and players can probably survive incompetence over a relatively short series, so if youre going to be rubbish, make sure its against Pakistan, Sri Lanka, New Zealand or someone."
GSTQ is turgid ****e, can't believe we got it so wrong.
This is good...
National Anthem of the soviet union - YouTube
And any excuse to show this...
The Liechtenstein one is great. It's played the tune of God Save the Queen but with different words.
The South African one is class.
The old Soviet/current Russian one is quite good imo.
And of course I'll push God defend New Zealand.

I like the tune for the French Anthem, but the lyrics are really bad.
I like the Kiwi one tbh.
Shame they're all ****s.

Code:47.3 W Coppinger to Heads Smacked the ball straight into the groin of Iwuajoku who has fallen over, miraculously with the ball still caught in his scrotal area! Out!
they all suck balls can we just get rid of them already
Indians can't bowl - Where has the rumour come from as I myself and many indian friends arwe competent fast bowlers ?

|If I were Bashir, I'd really be paranoid about medical conferences. He was on the way to a medical conference when the Dominion kidnapped him. He was on the way to a medical conference when Sloan kidnapped him. He was on his way to a medical conference when the Romulans kidnapped him...

Maserati Loves Company: Quattroporte stretched limousine
by Noah Joseph (RSS feed) on May 12th, 2009 at 7:27PM
While running around from merger to acquisition, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne has been riding in style in a Maserati Quattroporte. And why shouldn't he? The luxurious sport-sedan is miles ahead of the Alfa Romeo 167 which Fiat executives were chauffeured around in beforehand, and better than anything Opel or Chrysler has got to show off, too. But one limousine company in Florida has what it figures is the next step up: a stretched Quattroporte with seating for ten.Based on the previous incarnation of the Trident-emblazoned four-door – the horizontal slats in the grille are a dead...

Friends @ the Carnegie
Genealogy: From the Past to the Future
Carol Goodenough, of East Jordan, will give a presentation on the significance of genealogy from early history. Carol has been doing genealogy for over 40 years and has been running her own genealogy/ research business for over 20 years. As the modern history of genealogy unfolds, Carol will add her personal background in family history research as she explains how she used to do genealogy and how it is done now. The advent of the computer and the Internet changed the research techniques forever.
Although Carol does not have a crystal ball, she will try to forecast the future of genealogy, particularly mentioning the significance of genetic and DNA research. She will also discuss what a professional genealogist does, and how she might be able to help the patrons of the Library in their own research.
There will be a "question and answer" time after the presentation, and participants are encouraged to ask questions relevant to their own genealogical research.
Admission is free and open to the public.

Motorcycling: "Sidi has perfectly placed the Adventure Rain between the
Discovery and Crossfire alternatives, coming out with a boot and a name that
could not be more appropriate.
the Spoke magazine: "All in all 2 big toes up! These boots are the real deal!!
magazine: "Adventure riding is difficult to dress for. The variation of
climates and conditions make it nearly impossible to find a single boot that
can handle it all. Ive come the closest yet with Sidis new Adventure Rain
Motorcycling magazine: "The Adventure Rain embraces the features I consider to
be essential for adventure riding.
Bike Magazine: "The Sidi Adventure Rain is a wonderful boot. Its breathable,
waterproof, has off-the-chart support and its light weight makes it easy on the
knees. Its a winner all the way!
Magazine: "If you are an adventure rider these boots will serve you well.
"If you are looking for a comfortable road companion that can handle light off
road duty the Sidi Adventures may be the perfect boot for you.
Cycle News: "Overall, the Sidi Adventure Rain boots provide
great protection and you can wear them all day and not feel the need to take
them off due to any comfort issues.
Dirt Magazine: " If you want the best adventure motorcycle boot available, look
no further. The Sidi Adventure Rain is waiting for you.
Cycle World Magazine: "After months of use our Adventure Rains look nearly new,
they are beautifully constructed and finished."
Dirt Wheels Magazine: "In every situation the Sidi Adventure Rain boot offered great comfort and superior protection. With proper care there is no reason this boot wont last for many years. It is truly made that well. It may be expensive, but that doesnt mean it isnt a bargain. "

This is subjective really, and personal taste for the most part.
I know a guy who clicks slow cooldowns, uses only 1-0 and his mouse, and hits 1000-1200TPS pre-SSC.
I personally avoid as many macro's as possible. For thre simple reason that I like to try and condition myself to react quickly and multi-task as much as possible.
I currently have 2 macros I use on a regular basis and they are:
A zerkstance, zerker rage, defensive stance macro - reason is for the nightbane fight, although I've gotten VERY fast at switching stances and popping it manually as well.
A macro to change a button from shield bash to pummel if I'm in zerker stance - this saves button space and lets me have the same spell interupt key no matter the stance.
Overall, be selective, people bloat with too many macros and then fail to perform when they need to be more dynamic.
EDIT: Update coming with more info...

It's every gambler's dream--find a way to beat the odds and empty the coffers of Vegas casinos. Some people get lucky while others scheme their way to riches.
BREAKING VEGAS profiles people who took on the casino system and came away with cash. Sometimes they got away with it, and sometimes the odds--and the law--caught up to them.
Many gamblers are seduced by a particular game. For Gonzalo Garcia-Pelayo, it was roulette. This Spanish patriarch's obsession transformed his family into a gambling enterprise, embroiled him in a vicious standoff with casinos, and threatened his life.
THE ROULETTE ASSAULT follows the international exploits of the struggling record producer who became a gambling legend. Shot in Madrid and Las Vegas, the program features interviews with Gonzalo, his son and team member Ivan, and Patrick Santacruz, the "cat" who ultimately befriended the "mice".

At long last, the royal baby has arrived. The Duchess of Cambridge gave birth to a healthy baby boy on Monday, weighing 8 lbs., 6 oz., with Prince William at her side, but what will happen now?
In keeping with tradition, as the new parents leave St Mary's Hospital, Catherine and William are expected to appear on the steps of the building with the newborn, as Princess Diana did with Princes William and Harry.
Given that Catherine appears to have had a relatively normal delivery, this could happen as early as 1 p.m. ET on Tuesday. The prince is expected to address well-wishers and media gathered outside the hospital early in the day.
Catherine's mother and father, Carole and Michael Middleton, may also make a statement.
The royal baby name game has been going on since Catherine's pregnancy was announced in December and speculation has reached fever pitch. The earliest an announcement is expected is when the new family leaves St. Mary's hospital.
Prince William's name was announced a few days after his birth, while his brother Harry's was unveiled upon departure from the hospital.
Many expect Catherine and William to choose a traditional name, with George, James, Alexander, Louis and Henry, the favorites, according to British bookmakers Ladbrokes. Spencer, the maiden name of William's late mother, Princess Diana, is also a contender.
A multi-gun salute marked the birth in style on Tuesday morning. The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery released 41 rounds in London's Green Park, while the Honorable Artillery Company at the Tower of London sounded 62 rounds.
London landmarks have also been lit up in style celebrating the new prince. Soon after the birth, Hungerford Bridge, which crosses the Thames, was lit up in blue and the London Eye was decked out in red, white and blue.
A message announcing "It's a boy" was also displayed around the top of the CN Tower, while the water in the fountain in Trafalgar Square was dyed blue in celebration of the birth.
The next stop for the new family may be the Queen's estate at Sandringham in Norfolk, Balmoral in Scotland, or the Middletons' home village of Bucklebury, in Berkshire, but exactly where the baby will spend its first weeks is being kept a closely guarded secret.
Eventually, the new family will live at Kensington Palace, where a new apartment is being refitted for them.
Catherine and William are said to be set on giving their baby as normal an upbringing as possible, and are reportedly not planning to employ a nanny. There's already speculation on what the baby's first word will be and what university the boy will attend, with St. Andrews University in Scotland, where William and Catherine first met, the odds-on favorite.

Remember theletter of the guitar string, but don't take it. Now for the Chasm. Go tothe cat tapestry and click on it, go ahead into the Chasm. You will passthrough a door. Turn right and go ahead 1 time. Turn left, go aheadtwice, turn left, and go ahead once. You will be facing the skull. Turnleft and go ahead once, turn left, go ahead once to the bar. Open theright hand panel, click on the center and drag left. Get the bottle. turnleft twice, go ahead once, turn right, go ahead once back to the skull.With the skull to your back, turn right, go ahead once, turn right, andgo ahead twice, turn left to the door. With your back to the door, goahead once, turn right, go ahead once, turn left, go ahead to theskeleton. Turn right and give bottle to skeleton, and get bone. Turnright, go ahead once, turn right, go ahead once, turn left, go aheadtwice to the door. Open the door back to the tapestry room.Go to the garage door in the center of the upstairs hallway. Click onhandle in middle and drag up. Give bone to dog. Explore. In the car isanother notation clue. Go to the robot and click on him. Pick the car onthe right, the slowest one. Right after you click on the starting lightshold down on the mouse button until the race is over. May take severaltimes. When you have won, listen to the robot. Turn right twice and go tothe round tool shed left of the door. Click on handle and drag right.Look at the notation clue and draw it or print screen. Get spark plug.Look at notation clue in floorboard of car, and draw it. Go to musemachine and put in spark plug. Go back to garage, and get toothed wheel.Look down and enter hole. Face Skeleton, then turn right, go ahead once,turn right, go ahead once, turn left, go ahead twice to the door. Turnleft and go ahead 1 time. Turn left, go ahead twice, turn left, and goahead once. You will be facing the skull. Look down, and click on thecenter of compartment. Put toothed wheel in empty spot. Here, since everygame is different, you will have to experiment.The goal is to have all 12 holes showing pink. Our arrangement was 1, 3,4, 2. The secrete is to add the total of pink dots on each wheel, andturn the top wheel until all available pink dots are showing. When youget the wheels aligned properly, look up, and click on the skull to enterthe Dolly room. Explore. Go click on guitar case in the chair. She willtell you she needs a string. Go up the steps, enter the skull. Turnright, go ahead once, then turn left, go ahead one to the bar. Open theleft hand or center panel, get string. Turn left twice, go ahead once,turn right, go ahead to the skull, and enter skull. Give string toguitar. Tune the guitar using the tuning box on the left. Notice that theguitar head is bent down, so tune from bottom to top with the guide fromthe guitar book. Get the tuning fork.Go to the white door, and click in the middle. Go put it in the musemachine. Go back to the Dolly room at the left end of the t-shaped hall.After you enter the door, turn right, and go to the ball machine. Youmust align the cups to get the ball the bottom of the board. We found itbest to turn the lower cups first to see which way they will turn. Thisis fairly easy, it only took us a couple of tries. Click on the ball anddraw the notation clue. There are 2 notation clues on this sheet. Thefirst one is for the jungle organ. The second one is missing the secondnote, this will be the letter of the unused guitar string in the leftdrawer in the guitar book room Go to guitar picture tapestry, the firstone to the right of the throne and click on it. Using the clues from topof the stairs, microwave, and cat picture, drag correct pieces to centerto build guitar. Pull up on toggle to watch movie. Turn right, open doorand get vacuum tube. Since the twins take it from you, go back to theDolly room, climb the stairs, enter the skull. Turn right, go ahead once,turn left, go ahead once, go ahead once over the bar.Turn left twice, go forward, open the chest marked time bomb, get thevacuum tube, back away, go ahead twice, turn right, go ahead once, turnright, go ahead to skull, enter skull. Put vacuum tube in muse machine.Go to the organ. Build another keyboard chart below the first one, takethe first symbol from the sheet music and place it and the letter on thesecond chart as indicated on the sheet music, then continue your alphabetfrom there, warping around at the end of the keyboard back to thebeginning of the keyboard on the left. On ours we had to move up thekeyboard to the right five notes counting both white and black keys.Using the chart from the tool shed, the right and left side will overlay.Using the notation clues fill in the blank spaces in the second row bymatching the shaded boxes. In the first column add the first two rows ofarrows to get the third row (f you have 4 arrows right in top box and 2arrows left in the second box, the third box will be 2 arrows right).When finished this will be the sequence for the notation clue from theracecar. Now play music from notation clues. When it is right, you willhear noises from the monkey above. We played all the notation clues, andthe monkey was holding 4 coins to give to Isadora We used the Blue coinfirst and got the key.Go up the red stairway the hallway. Turn right and go forward to theattic door. Use key on door, open door. Go ahead twice to puzzle. Watchthe way the figures move to figure out how to get to the door at theother end. This one is kind of tough. When you reach the door, turn leftand click on the chest. Get the elevator card. Turn right and pushbutton, enter elevator. Turn left and put card in panel. Turn left andmove handle to basement.Go forward, you will get a gun. Shoot all the rats, you must reload whenthe cylinder is empty by clicking on the cylinder in the lower left. Youcan turn your pistol into a machine gun by holding down on the controlkey and shooting a rat. When the clip is empty, you must repeat theprocess. Watch out for the big rats coming in from the hole ahead and alittle to the left. It takes about five shots to kill them. This was oneof the hardest sequences to finish for us. When all of the lights arelit, go forward to the boarded up door, turn right. Click on the paper,and get the monocle. Put monocle in muse machine. After the muse machineblows up, listen to the twins, and follow them down. Turn left and clickon boat. Explore. Click on anything that lights up, and look at it. Thegreen on the palette is to tell you that green is the missing color inthe color-number notation clue at the left end of the t-shaped hall. Onours, green was three beats, or play the note three times. Now for themost nerve-racking puzzle in the game. Go to the organ. Here is where youwill need your organ keyboard chart again, and the completed chart fromthe tool shed. Play the notes on the totems from left to right using yoursecond keyboard chart. When you run into a shaded box, play the firstnote on the top of the totem, then move up or down the keyboard thenumber of arrows indicated on the notation clue from the tool shed. Ifthe note is colored, play that note that many times, if the box iscolored, play the sequence that many times. Good luck, Happy playing. Anyquestions or problems, feel free to e-mail us.-THE END-

text: 3 Based on Demo this is 3 Years Wasted!!!Milney | 06/06/2009 | See all Milney's reviews (5)Fight Night 3 is probably one of the best games on the 360 certainly top 5 possibly 3. And from what I can see they have done so many good things to this game, and then ruined it by making the controls feel like youve put the toggle pads in concrete!You constantly flick the right stick to make punches only for random excuses for punches or just nothing to happen. It genuinely has absolutely ruined what would probably be an even better game than its predecessor.I have played the demo as has my friend many times and neither of us can knock anyone out simply because landing to decent punches one after the other is bordering on the impossible.As much as I can agree the controls and method of throwing haymakers needing some work on from round 3. Its is undescribable untill you play it how bad the controls are and fail to see how anyone can rate this highly because its no where near as good as 3.The reason I give this 3 stars is only because I'm sure that when they release the full game they will return the control method back to the same way it was in Round 3 with some modifications. If not as I say they have just ruined 3 years by simply giving it the most unresponsive controls.

I'm thinking about ways to add hit locations and active defense to Dragon Age. Comments welcome!
(I know this makes the game more complex, but I also know what my group likes )
I was thinking along these lines:
* When you deal a critical hit, you roll for hit location, and the opponent needs to make a parry or dodge roll to avoid taking crippling damage to that location. When you don't, no such rolls are made, making combat move on just as usual.
* Critical hits should be able to incapacitate or even kill even a creature at full Health. In fact, this goal is the main impetus for having the system in the first place.
* As a compromise between keeping things simple and yet having these features, my main idea is that only when you roll a double (when you generate stunt points) will these mechanisms come into play. In all other cases (60%?) play simply and quickly moves on. (This proves to be slightly problematic since if you crit your opponent, stunting him becomes a secondary issue. Hmmm...)
This would mean several things:
1) Since you can die at maximum Health, this value would now stand for tiredness, stamina, vitality or what have you. Not "life points" or "hit points" anymore.
2) My initial thought is that a breather (five minutes of rest) resets your Health to the maximum value. Critical injuries would take much longer to heal (unless you have healing potions/magic etc of course).
3) The value of armor would (should) be reduced somewhat. Protecting against Health loss is not as valuable as protecting against critical hits. I'm not sure I need to reduce the actual armor values, however. (You might not bother with heavy armor if you can get knocked out even by attacks that deal 0 Damage after armor absorption) Perhaps certain armors should even provide a bonus to parries/dodges (the idea is that it is easier to parry if you can deflect onto a sturdy patch of heavy armor and that it is easier to dodge if you can accept "near misses" thanks to wearing light armor)
4) The need to focus on maximum damage weapons/attacks should be lessened. Even a dagger should suffice, if the primary goal is to inflict critical hits rather than to wear down Health. For a game that wants viable combat Rogues, this can't be a bad thing.
5) The TN of a parry/dodge attempt should definitely be dependent on how good the attack was. But what option is best? 1) vs the attack roll (an opposed roll) 2) vs the attack damage (keeping damage as an important number) or even 3) "battle of the stunt points" (the more stunt points the attacker pours into his attack the more stunt points the defender needs to use up too). At this point, I think I'll start with the straightforward option one: making the parry/dodge into an opposed roll vs the incoming attack roll (which will always be good to stellar, since it was a hit and a stunt, remember).
6) Warriors should be encouraged to parry. Rogues should be encouraged to dodge. (Mages, well, they should be encouraged to use magic ) How to implement this? The straight-forward solution would be to make dodging in heavy armor or when encumbered harder. Problem is, this is not a very realistic limitation. I would much prefer another solution. Here are two ideas: a) make light armor give dodge bonuses and make shields give parry bonuses b) make dodges cost "action energy" and have rogue power-moves (stunts) cost such energy.
7) Perhaps even made "action energy" = Health? This would allow me to give Rogues as much Health as Warriors, only they need to use it for both staying conscious AND moving about the battlefield. Including dodging. Warriors could focus on other stuff, and thus remain more resilient, since they can save their Health to taking a beating (and be the tank). (They're welcome to dodging if they prefer that).
I briefly thought about making Mana = Health too, but I think that's going to far. I will keep Mana as a separate score, and keep Mages Health low. (Besides, the Mana = Health idea is already "taken" by the cool Blood Magic concept.)
9) Yes, I realize that if you insist on wearing different armors on different body parts you should roll for hit location even on vanilla (regular non-stunt) hits. But you know what? I think I'll rationalize that any "glancing hit" like that could be interpreted to bounce of the body, or be partially taken by the shield arm etc. In other words, use your torso armor rating for all unexceptional hits. (This also "allows" a character to go without a helmet, or without leg protection, which is something I would like to encourage. In my game, heavily armored tanks should not be the only survival strategy)
Now then, you make an attack and you roll a double. What now?
At first, I considered making "you deal a Critical Hit" into a Stunt. But I realized that would mostly mean a "stunt tax" since you would (should) ALWAYS want to deal out critical hits (otherwise they're not critical enough! )
So at least at first "dealing a critical" will effectively cost 0 Stunt Points, in that you automatically deal one (but you still need to roll that double).
Then you roll for Hit Location. At its simplest: 1 - L Leg 2 - R Leg 3 - Torso 4 - L Arm 5 - R Arm 6 - Head, you get the idea. (I will probably lift a less crude table, perhaps 2d6-based, from another game eventually)
Then the defender gets to parry or dodge. I probably need rules that impose penalties/restrictions on making several parries/dodges in the same round (to make the twin strategies of "ganging up" and "avoiding being surrounded" good ones), but I'll get back to that. I probably should avoid making it into a talent (being allowed multiple defenses), since that would probably be seen by players as a "must have" (and thus a "talent tax"). What I most definitely won't do is to make 1 attack = 1 Parry, i.e. allow characters to give up their attack(s) to make more parries (or dodges). Not making attacks might be the sensible thing, but it is boring and slows down combat.
Now then, should parrying/dodging be easy? For PCs fighting "fodder" creatures, probably yes. Since even a small risk of taking considerable damage is exciting, most crits made by rank-and-file monsters should be parried/dodged.
On the other hand, those rank-and-file monsters should probably not even attempt to parry/dodge themselves. Maybe have *one* parry/dodge attempt, if it is a weak one. This speeds up play, and makes "boss monsters" (who take as much care about their personal safety as the PCs do) stand out that much more. I'll probably make a distinction between "human" opponents (such as guards, bandits etc) and "animal"/"darkspawn" opponents. Humans care about living and thus attempt an active defense. Animals usually can't and darkspawn wouldn't think of it.
What is the severity level of a Critical Hit then. Instant death or a cosmetic scar?
(Note - the severity of the crit should NOT be dependent on which weapon you use. The temptation to make a great sword more deadly than a knife is always there, but should be avoided if Rogues should remain a competitive combat archetype. Having big weapons do more Health damage is plenty enough. Having longer weapons give an Initiative bonus (when conditions aren't cramped) is another possibility, which I have decided to not add to DA for now).
I'll probably have three levels:
I) Minor/Cosmetic: the attack leaves a scar and/or impedes you. The opponent is humbled/embarrassed in a duel. In pitched battle it may have to make a Morale roll to not consider fleeing/surrendering. (Perhaps a small penalty to actions that use the body part, although I am careful handing out penalties.)
II) Serious: The body part is punctured/broken etc. Generally you can't use it (say -5 to actions and -5 Health per action if you're forced to use it). A serious hit to the head stuns you and you're incapacitated until you recover.
III) Grievous: You're incapacitated and dying (you die at the end of combat unless cared for). A head wound kills instantly. Essentially the "game over" result for you (although PCs should hope to survive if their allies win the day).
The straightforward idea is to have you use Stunt Points to "up" the crit level of your attack (handily you will have some to use, since you just rolled a double). But this probably won't work - why would you ever want to use another stunt than "defeating your foe"?
Probably level II (Serious injury) needs to be the default - otherwise things aren't lethal enough (or there's too much of a Stunt Point "tax").
Going down to level 1 should then be voluntary (the "zorro effect"). Perhaps you even get a bonus Stunt Point (to use on stuff like making the embarrassed foe fall on his stomach etc) as a reward. One possibility is that a "near parry/dodge" can reduce the crit to this level (making it a real possibility even in situations where "honor" plays no part).
Going up to level 3 is the tricky bit. As I said it can't cost Stunt Points (it would then be the best Stunt you could buy). Perhaps make it the "overkill" bonus (when you exceed the Defense rating of your foe and/or the foe's active parry/dodge by a goodly amount).
Btw, I am toying with the idea of a fourth crit level:
IV) Killing. You die. Messily!
This would then represent those cool "kill combos" you see in the computer game Here you spend an entire round, but end up massacring the foe in a most impressive (and bloody) manner The exact routine is up to you to describe - feel free to use the hit location, your choice of weaponry/spell and other circumstances to guide you! This would probably be a stunt you would want to spend SPs on.
I'll probably lift the cool "bloodied" concept (from D&D4 in my case) and make it count for two things:
1) you can't suffer a killing crit unless you are bloodied. This preserves the notion that you need to wear down Health at least somewhat before you can go for the kill. Important: you can still win a fight with your very first attack. You just can't get to shower yourself and your opponent in blood...
2) as you go up in level (and meet badder boss monsters) I will probably lock down the more powerful combat stunts (the ones unique to a certain foe or specializion) to when you yourself is "bloodied". Yes, the Hulk Hogan effect. It simply is too cool/dramatic not to use!
I am writing this partly to organize my own thoughts, but also to expose my ideas to you. This is the rough planning stage, but still: Do you see any major flaws? Do you have any cool improvements to make? Have I forgotten something important?
Feel free to comment /Zapp

Georgian Revival: Susan Hable Smith at Home
Textile designer and artist Susan Hable Smith transforms a faded Victorian cottage in Athens, Georgia, into a joyous and vibrant family home
By Ingrid Abramovitch
Growing up in Corsicana, an old gun-slinging town about an hour south of Dallas, Susan Hable Smith fantasized about pursuing a career in art and design in New York City. Her parents were concerned. "They wondered how I would support myself," she says.
Hable Smith eventually moved to Alabama for college and then to California, where she worked as a fashion and accessories designer, but she never lost sight of New York. At last, in 1999, the timing felt right. But then, shortly before her move, she met her future husband, the attorney Peter W. Smith, who was based in New York. Coincidentally, he was ready to leave the city and offered to join her in California. "If you want to be with me," she recalls telling him, "then you need to stay in New York."
In the parlor, an antique Indonesian daybed is upholstered with antique Moroccan wedding blankets, a vintage shipping pallet serves as a cocktail table, the custom-made floor lamp is by Robert Ogden, and the painting is by Jeannie Weissglass; the curtains are of washed linen by Libeco, and the custom-made rug is by Elson & Company.

|Home Help Screens Help Screens :: Installers Site Modules: New
|Site Modules: New
Please note that at the present time a number of Help icons in Joomla! direct you to this Help Screen. In fact there are now separate Help Screens for these functions as follows: Admin Module: New
menu=>Modules=>Site Modules=>Module Manager->New
User Level:
Administrator; Super Administrator.
Module Type: custom
The Site Module: New function provides the opportunity to create a new (custom) Module, for the Front-end of the web site, directly within Joomla and without the need for programming skills or knowledge of the Joomla! code.
When clicked the resulting screen presents a series of options, primarily directed at creating an output display for RSS News Feeds from external web sites, but it is also suitable for creating a Module that will display Content that is not related to any existing Module or Menu Item for example. This does not include any Content that relates to Sections, Categories, or Static Content Items.
The Custom Module is not suited to complex functions and it is better for these to be created externally within an editor and packaged as necessary for uploading via the Module Installer.
Preview: To check the appearance of the current Module in a browser-style window, click the Preview icon. A pop-up display page will appear. Close the pop-up by clicking anywhere upon it.
Save: Click Save to save any changes made during the current editing session, and return to the Module Manager screen.
Apply: Click Apply to save any changes made so far in the current session, but remain in the Module screen to continue editing. If the current action was creating a new Module it will now have been saved, and will appear on the Module Manager list. In addition, the current session now becomes an Edit action rather than the Add action it was previously. Once the editing session is complete click Save as above.
Cancel: Clicking Cancel at any point ends the current creation session and returns the display to the Module Manager screen. Any changes made since the session commenced will be lost and the new Module will not have been created.
Close: Click Close at any point to end the current editing session and return to the Module Manager screen. Any changes made since the session commenced, or since the last time Apply was clicked, will be lost.
Help: Click the Help icon at any time to view this Help Screen.
Title: Enter a name for the Module being created. This will be displayed at the top of the Module display page - if the option to Show is selected below. The Page Title is also used by the Module Manager to identify it in its display list.
Show title: Select the No or Yes radio button to set whether the Title, entered above, will be displayed or not in the Front-end of the web site.
Position: Select the position in which this Module will be displayed, from the drop down list of all available Positions. These positions are determined by the Template in use and the menu=>Site=>Templates=>Module Positions screen.
Module Order: This option allows the place for this Module in the order of all Modules that are assigned to this Position in the Template to be set, and therefore its place in the Front-end display of the Template.
Access Level: Identify which User Group level can view this Module. Select from Public, Registered, or Special. See User Access Levels for further details on these.
ID: The unique Module Identification Number that Joomla! (MySQL) has assigned to the Module.
Published: Check this check box to Publish the Module. If there is no check mark in the check box, then the Category is Unpublished.
Description: Enter a description of the Module that explains its function in the open text field. The text will be displayed within the Administrator Back-end only and is for future reference purposes.
Pages / Items:
Menu Item Links: Choose the Menu/Menu Item locations that this Module should be displayed on in the Front-end display of the web site if has been Published. In addition to individual pages it is possible to assign the Module as follows:
Module Class Suffix: This field can contain a suffix that will be applied to the CSS classes of this page. This allows individual Module styling with relative ease. For example, if the suffix .foo is entered here, all CSS code elements in the CSS file within the Template for Modules will have .foo added to them. table.moduletable becomes table.moduletable.foo. Separate entries would then need to be added in the CSS file of the Template, for each corresponding difference.
Enable Cache: Select No or Yes to set whether the Cache will be enabled for the content of this Module. If set to Yes this will speed up delivery of the content to a User as the information is held within the web server in a static web space rather than the database having to be queried for an update each time a request is made to view the content. For the web site, caching the information means there will be fewer requests being submitted to the database, and therefore the overall service of the web site is less affected by a high volume of requests having to be processed by the database.
Mambots: Select No or Yes to set whether Mambots - particularly Search Mambots - will be allowed access to the content of this Module.
RSS URL: Enter the URL of the RSS News Feed, of the external web site, that this Module is intended to display.
Title: Select No or Yes to set whether the Title of the News Feed (created by the originating site) will be shown in the Module.
Feed Description: Select No or Yes to set whether the Feed Description (created by the originating site) will be shown in the Module.
Feed Image: Select No or Yes to set whether the image, from the originating sites feed, will be displayed in the Module.
Items: Enter the number of the RSS News Feed Items available from the originating site that will be displayed within the Module. If the originating site transmits fewer Items than this setting, then this will be the number displayed.
Description: Select No or Yes to set whether the Module will display the Description text for each News Feed Item, if these are available, from the feed received from the originating web site.
Word Count: Choose the the maximum number of visible words available from the description of the New Item. 0 means all text will be displayed.
RSS Cache: Set the amount of time (in seconds) that a News Feed is stored in the web site cache before a further request is sent to the external site for an update, to get the latest News Feed entries.
The time value entered here depends on the type of site providing the feed. If a linked site only updates once a day, for example, then a higher setting can be made, whereas a feed from a dynamic web site for example, http://forum.joomla.org, whose content is rapidly changing would benefit from a more frequent refresh rate.
The following may be of use, although any figure can be entered:
Custom Output: The text editor field is provided to allow any text or code to be entered. The resulting output of any code will then be displayed together with any text that was entered, within the Module.

I posted this in the designer forum on Monday. but figured I would share it with you all here too
So you probably all know I live in my parents house. They went traveling for a year and while they were gone we moved in, and have been renting their house for over a year. Well... They came home about a month ago, but didn't want us to leave because they want to travel again and they like us taking care of the house and making the payments too
So they have been here, in their rv, in the front of the house. Well my dad is retired and he can't stand it if he is not busy.... So he decided he wants to do some remodeling. He wants to totally remodel the master bed and bath. Which is my room of course. Lol.
So he told me that I have until mid June to get everything out of the master bedroom and bath. Ugh ... And that means I have to share a room with one of my kids too... Ugh.
Then this morning I left to drop my son off at 6th grade camp and came home to find he decided to start TODAY!! Tearing down walls and Omg it is a WRECK!! So I'm now scrambling to get all my stuff out of my room and move it into another room, while I figure out where I'm gonna move into.
I'm ready to go crazy! You should see the house! It looks like a bomb went off! Sigh....
I almost want to just find a rental and move. Lol.
Hopefully I have a bed to sleep in tonight. Lol..... Oh what a fun few months this is going to be. Eeekkkkk.
And here is a quick photo I snapped-
