In Hell in Freeport (Possible spoiler, btw), on Devils Cry island, there is a passageway that greater devils used. Its practically frictionless. Oh, and there is also a big gash in the bottom midway through the 100 foot cylindrical tube.
That was the setup/refresh.
My players opted for this route, of the three. They slowly traversed the tube (reflex saves around round), being careful not to slip. When they reached the 20 ft gap in the floor, my players started debating on what to do.
"I know! Here, give me that rope of yours, Ulfgar," said Boogle, the gnome.
Boogle, a gnomish artisan, devises a plan to vault himself across the expanse....and that is about where the planning ended. They tied a rope around Boogle's waist, and likewise with Ulfgar, the dwarven figher. The cleric held onto ulfgar to "steady 'em."
I asked how much slack was in the rope?
"I'd say about 50 feet"
*GM smiles devilishly to himself.
So, Boogle, the ever-intrepid gnome, backs up to get suitable distance. He RUNS forward (Making all his disgustingly difficult relex saves, darn rogues), and makes a huge leap! Thanks to his boots of springing and striding, he makes it to the other side!
....and keeps on going.
His momentum yanks the others off their feet, who fall into the passage below...
Boogle slides out the farside of the tube, and his yanked to a halt as the rope becomes taut....Boogle is now hanging on the end of a rope, 10 feet above the floor.
Malcius, the jaded Sorcerer, declares: "Fools," casts Fly on himself and drifts across the expanse.
Arcane spellcasters can be so pretentious sometimes.
Ok, my lunch brake is over, back to the grind!

We LOVE this recipe at my house. It is a great way to get the little ones to eat some different things. I have made it exactly as the recipe suggests which is fantastic and I have a,so subbed green pepper for the red and zucchini for the squash with equally tasty results. This recipe is definitely a keeper in our house!

TOP 5: STAR WARS, 2013 Oscar Previews, GIRL MEETS WORLD, Sundance 2013, STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS
by Jason Barr Posted 2 years, 19 days ago
You may have noticed a lack of Top 5 around these parts last weekend. Given the holiday weekend with friends and family, a slow news week in general, and my own recovery from Black Friday shopping at a local Wal-Mart (Note to past self: the kid next to you in line is going to unexpectedly throw-up so…just be prepared for that), it seemed like the logical time to take a week off. In spite of the holiday, though, a few cool things did happen the week before last so you'll have to excuse the fact that some of this week's items date back to two weeks ago.
Disclaimer aside, this week's return includes Allison's Confessions of a Star Wars Virgin series and more Star Wars news, Adam's 2013 Oscar Previews, Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel returning for the Boy Meets World sequel series, Girl Meets World, the first programming announcement and an abundance of first images from Sundance 2013, and the synopsis for Star Trek Into Darkness finally sees the light of day. Find a brief recap and link to each after the jump.

Take some self portraits, but this time have your camera somewhere different!
Self portraits are fun to do, and I for one really like trying new things to make my self portraits new and exciting. One easy way to do this is to put the camera in a new place rather then just in the open air.
Try putting it into the washing machine, the fridge, the cupboard, the closet, a drawer, in a box, it doesn't really matter where as long as it's new and if it can look like it's capturing a part of your everyday life even better!

!Exploding Paintballs! is a tilt-sensitive arcade game with paintballs that float (blue and green) and paintballs that sink (red and yellow). When certain color combinations of paintballs touch they link together and, when the link is complete, explode with a loud realistic explosion noise. The color combinations that will explode vary with each Level.
The Game Center records various scores on Leaderboards such as number of Levels completed, number of explosions, best times for certain Levels and best times for all Levels combined. Compete with your Game Center Friends to see who can make the most explosions or who can get 10 explosions on one or all Levels the fastest.
Gravity is adjusted by tilting the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. Alternatively, !Exploding Paintballs! can respond to touch moves rather than tilt.
The exploding noise differs for the different color combinations that explode (e.g. gunshots, crashes, bombs). The sound can be turned off or made into a vibration.
There are 8 free Levels – 4 with walls and 4 without walls. An In App Purchase expands the number of Levels to 66 – 33 Levels with walls and 33 Levels without walls.
!Exploding Paintballs! is based on a kinetic simulation using the device's accelerometer and realistic principles of physics (buoyancy, inertia, viscosity, Hooke's Law and color confinement). For accuracy and stability it uses a half step modification to Euler's Algorithm as described by Feynman (Lectures on Physics, Vol. 1, Ch. 9, P. 5) and Cromer (Am. J. Phy. 49, 455 (1981)).
The screen shots below are:
1) Free Level 4 – Red-Yellow-Green-Blue. Some partial combinations are shown linked. A red-yellow-green-blue combination is shown exploding.
2) The Levels Table. The 4 free Levels are shown together with the Best Times and maximum number of Explosions.
3) Free Level 1 – Red-Blue. A red-blue combination is shown exploding.
4) Free Level 2 – Blue-Yellow-Yellow-Loop. Some partial combinations are shown linked. A blue-yellow-yellow-loop is shown exploding.
5) Free Level 3 – Yellow-Green-Red, Red-Green-Green-Loop, Yellow-Green. Some partial combinations for the three different exploding combinations are shown linked. A yellow-green combination is shown exploding.

Suit: NSA illegally wiretapped attorneys
The Associated Press
PORTLAND — A lawsuit filed Tuesday asked a federal court to shut down electronic surveillance by the National Security Agency, based on claims the NSA illegally wiretapped conversations between the director of an Islamic charity and two of the charity's attorneys.
A chapter of the Al-Haramain Islamic Foundation, a now-defunct Saudi Arabian charity, was established in Ashland in 1997 as a prayer house that also distributed Islamic literature. The chapter was indicted in February 2004 on tax charges alleging it helped launder $150,000 in donations to help al-Qaida fighters in Chechnya in 2000.
The lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Portland alleges the NSA illegally wiretapped electronic communications between the chapter and Wendell Belew and Asim Ghafoor, attorneys in Washington, D.C.
The complaint, which also names President Bush as a defendant, seeks "an order that would require defendants and their agents to halt an illegal and unconstitutional program of electronic surveillance of United States citizens and entities."
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of the two Washington attorneys and the Al-Haramain chapter by three Portland civil-rights lawyers: Steven Goldberg, Zaha Hassan and Thomas Nelson.
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Portland had not yet seen the lawsuit but likely would be unable to comment, based on national-security concerns, said Barry Sheldahl, spokesman for U.S. Attorney Karin Immergut.
The complaint alleges the NSA did not follow procedures required by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and failed to obtain a court order authorizing electronic surveillance of the charity and its attorneys.
The lawsuit also names the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control, alleging it relied on information the NSA obtained without a warrant to designate the chapter in Oregon a "specially designated global terrorist" in September 2004.
The complaint notes that the former parent charity in Saudi Arabia has never been designated a terrorist organization.
Hassan said the case is about "whether we are prepared to accept after 9/11 that the executive branch of our government has unlimited and unchecked power to engage in unlawful activity at the expense of the civil rights of Americans."

FBI or ransomware? You be the judge
By Samuel G. Howard on June 19, 2014
Lost in the aftermath of the budget was this gem (start at around 2:54; for fun, pay attention to Reps. Shekarchi and Morin reactions) from last Friday's House debate over Budget Article 1. In it, Rep. Karen MacBeth claims that the FBI temporarily seized control of her home computer for reasons unknown. Now, I'm not a […]

Hotel workers plan week long hunger strike for $15 minimum wage
By Steve Ahlquist on June 16, 2014
The Rhode Island House, under the leadership of Speaker Nicholas Mattiello, moved to strip away the political power of Providence hotel workers by inserting a provision in the state budget that would prevent municipalities from setting their own minimum wage last Thursday night. This week, the Rhode Island Senate takes up discussion of the budget, […]

Budget bill is big on corporate welfare, short on renter protections
By crotondo on June 16, 2014
Crying the need to ease the burdens of doing business in Rhode Island, the House of Representatives recently passed a budget that lowers the corporate tax rate, raises the ceiling on the estate tax, pays millions to 38 Studios bond investors, raises the gas tax and the cost of a car inspection.

The 5 worst things in the House budget

The Rhode Island House of Representatives has put together a new budget, and there is a lot not to like. Here are my top five: 5. Slashing the corporate income tax from 9% to 7%. New House Speaker Mattiello, a very conservative Democrat from Cranston, has been championing this idea ever since he rose […]

Real estate transfer tax will help get homeless off the streets
By Bob Plain on June 10, 2014
A proposed increase to the real estate transfer fee is good news for the homeless in Rhode Island. That's because the new revenue will benefit a rental voucher program that helps keep people off the streets. "We are thrilled that the House Finance Committee ensured that this year's budget invests in the long-term solutions to […]

Why the budget process was different this year
By Gus Uht on July 1, 2013
Last week's budget debate in the House was inspiring, although the horse-trading and the outcome were disappointing. Normally the budget sails through the House; no one wants to risk the wrath of the House leadership by opposing it. It really takes guts to go against the grain; those doing so risk the loss of significant […]

Roads, bridges sacrifice for pensions; income taxes spared

Budget hinges on moral obligation to the rich or retirees
By Bob Plain on June 26, 2013
The biggest debate of the budget process turned out not to be about a moral obligation to Wall Street but rather a moral obligation to Rhode Island retirees.

Budget hole big enough to drive a bus through

Perhaps the most telling tale of the 2013 budget process is not about what we do or don't invest in, but rather the uncommon affiliations one such spending decision has brought to light. Many on the left (progressives) and the right (Republicans) seem to disagree with the majority of moderate Democrats that Rhode Island should […]

Out-fox Fox: vote 'NO' on the House budget bill
By Gus Uht on June 25, 2013
The state budgeting process has once again turned into a farce. This has been particularly true under Speaker Fox's leadership. However, unlike previous years, the forced House rubber-stamping of the budget is in serious doubt. And that's a good thing. The 38 Studios' bond repayment debacle seems to be the catalyst for the public's and […]

Progressives should vote against the budget
By Samuel Bell on June 25, 2013
Progressives have always had a complicated relationship with House Speaker Gordon Fox. Though deeply concerned that Fox's very conservative economic policies are destroying our state, we have always supported the House leadership team because Fox's likely successors, Helio Melo and Nick Mattiello, are even more conservative than he is. When Speaker Fox faced the progressive […]

House budget bill: The good, the bad and the booze
By Bob Plain on June 19, 2013
Rhode Islanders best not blink in June. If we do, we might just miss much new state policy being swiftly passed in the annual budget bill.

Experts weigh in: Does RI repay 38 Studios' bond

Last week, on June 6th, both a debate and a separate hearing were held whose sole focus was the 38 Studios' bonds' situation. (Related posts: first, second.) In a nutshell, my opinion is unchanged: Rhode Island should not repay the bonds. We should also outlaw such bonds. They have a shady origin (complete with a […]

Low, K. S. and Lee, C. K. (1997) Non-living Biomass of Water Hyacinth Roots as a Sorbent for Chromium (ITI) in Aqueous Solution. Pertanika Journal of Science & Technology, 5 (2). pp. 147-155. ISSN 0128-7680
The ability of the non-living biomass of water hyacinth roots, Eichhomia crassipes, to remove Cr(lll) has been studied at different concentrations, pH levels and in the presence of Na and Ca ions in an attempt to simulate the real conditions of tannery waste. Ca ions exhibited a greater inhibitory effect on the Cr(lll) sorption than the Na ions. Kinetic studies showed that more than one mode of sorption was operating in the uptake of Cr(lll) by water hyacinth roots. The equilibrium data obeyed Langmuir isotherm for the Cr(III)-water hyacinth root system, implying mono-layer coverage of the sorben t material.

Whos got one, getting one?
Lets have a bit of a review please :D
seen one in action in a game store the other day looks very impresive
Will be getting one too as it does look very impressive.
But I think I have left it a little late to get hold of on launch day :doh:
can anyone say gimmick ;-)
I'm sure when it first comes out it'll be like the wii and everyone will have their mates round to use it
but - be honest - when you play a computer game you wanna slump and relax right? jumping around and waving your arms isn't exactly first thing on my mind when I get home.
The voice recognition looks pretty snazzy, but I don't see it replacing physical controls anytime soon
Lets just hope the sun don't shine....
Review: Flawed Kinect Offers Tantalizing Glimpse at Gamings Future | GameLife | Wired.com
This isn't going to be a way of replacing a controller but a new way of improving the experience, like plugging in a headset this will add another dimension.
I think that over time this technology amalgamated with other ideas will shape future computing and interfaces.
MS really are pulling an Apple with this, taking existing technologies and making them better and more accessible, lets see if it works!
You really think say, the next gears of war is gonna use Kinect integration to any meaningful level?
To make the integration worthwhile it'd have to be a key gameplay mechanic - which means you'd make the game for kinect, which means anyone without it misses out.
Sorry, but I don't see publishers getting behind it, and it'll just fade away, as did Sony's EyeToy, and every Wii that hasn't been switched on in six months....like mine. and my old flatmates. and probably most of everyones on here :-p
I say combine it with some form of wrap around screen technology and get some form of 'virtual reality' at a very cheap price. Something like one of those screen headsets which you wear like glasses.

Look at it as a way the xbox can interact with you and its surroundings instead of how crap it will be for controlling an FPS!
however real world usage is a different thing - and as early reviews have showed if you don't exactly fit to microsofts constraints it stops working.
If think there was a line in the gizmodo review along the lines of "you'd hate to spend money on this thing only for it to tell you to get a bigger domicile"
Lets just say I don't see it being revolutionary in its current form - but who knows where the tech will go, I'm sure there's much better suited applications for it
I've just got mine today, and really it is so awesome.
It really is as good as people say it is. Only problem is that I need to buy some more games for it now :(
It will be interesting to see what people do with it now that it has been hacked...

One of the
most striking things about this year's political discourse (as if
name-calling and wild accusations can be dignified with such a term)
is that what used to be considered traditional and commonplace thinking
is now labeled as extremism and bigotry. A few examples:
If you believe
that the U.S. Constitution means only what it actually says, you
are an extremist who ought to be wearing a powdered wig.
If you believe
that marriage is exclusively the union of one man and one woman,
you are a homophobe and a bigot.
If you think
people should not be allowed to break into our country illegally,
then get free education, health care and jobs and to march in our
streets to protest the violation of their "rights," you
are a racist, a xenophobe, and your state should be boycotted.
If you have
misgivings about the morality of abortion, or any doubts about the
absolute right of a mother to kill her unborn child, you are a religious
fanatic, an anti-feminist, and probably a right-wing Catholic.
If you admit
to having some queasy feeling when boarding an airplane with people
dressed in Muslim garb – you are not only a bigot but you are
FIRED – if you work for National Public Radio (or probably
any other institution aligned with the cultural/political Left in
this country.)
If you watch
Fox News, you are a freakin' @#XX!&**mf2!!!
If you doubt
any of the above is true, a close look at the TV commercials being
run by the likes of Sen. Harry Reid, Barbara Boxer, Patty Murray
or many of the other endangered Democratic incumbents running scared
this election year will prove my point. Anyone who does not totally
buy into the "progressive" agenda and orthodoxy of politically
correct, left-leaning Democratic Party is, by definition, "extreme"
if not outright bigoted or "crazy" (as Reid has labeled
his opponent, Sharron Angle).
The point of
all this is not simply to bemoan what's happened to political debate
in this country, but to point out how successful the Left has been
in redefining the terms of that debate. Over the last 30 years,
liberals, through their dominance in the media, the universities,
the public school systems and major cultural institutions, including
television and Hollywood, have redefined what is acceptable and
unacceptable in American society. And the docile, largely silent
majority of ordinary Americans, who don't relish confrontation and
controversy, have allowed these institutional forces to have their
way in changing American culture. Up to now.

Two Lincoln girls on all-star tryout listTuesday, March 30th, 2010
Kendra Brown has joined Lincoln County teammate Jessica Upchurch on the list of players invited to try out for the Kentucky All-Stars next month.
Brown and Upchurch are among 43 players invited to the tryouts, which will be held April 16-17 at Campbellsville University.
Upchurch received an automatic invitation after being named the Kentucky Association of Basketball Coaches' 12th Region player of the year. Brown was among 28 additional invitees. Jackie Alexander of Rockcastle County was the only other 12th Region girl invited.
Eleven players will join Miss Basketball Sarah Beth Barnette of Lexington Christian on the team, which will play in the annual Kentucky-Indiana series June 11 in Louisville and June 12 in Indianapolis.

Photo: Harry Fellows"Tonight was one of those nights where it felt like a band was really kicked up to a new level. The Hot Sardines killed it. ...A revelation." - Bill Bragin, director of Public Programming for Lincoln Center
"...the most foot-stomping, raucous jazz band in the world." - The Music Playground
In just under four years, the Hot Sardines have gone from their first gig - at a coffeeshop on the last Q train stop in Queens - to headlining at Lincoln Center, where they played to a crowd of 6000 on Bastille Day 2011. They've also opened for the Bad Plus and French gypsy-jazz artist Zaz.
The Hot Sardines sound – wartime Paris via New Orleans, or the other way around – is steeped in hot jazz, salty stride piano, and the kind of music Louis Armstrong, Django Reinhardt and Fats Waller used to make: Straight-up, foot-stomping jazz. (Literally – the band includes a tap dancer whose feet count as two members of the rhythm section). They manage to invoke the sounds of a near-century ago and stay resolutely in step with the current age.
The band was born when a stride piano player (Evan Palazzo) and a singer (Elizabeth Bougerol) met at a jam session advertised on Craigslist. Above a noodle shop on 49th Street, they discovered a mutual love for songs from the 1920s, '30s and '40s that no-one really plays anymore. The band gets their French influence two ways, via the early jazz sound of New Orleans and the jazz manouche and French chanson their Paris-born vocalist listened to growing up.
Members of the Sardines collective have worked with a genre-hopping roster that includes Rufus Wainwright, Sufjan Stevens, Lauren Ambrose, Sondre Lerche, Vetiver, Of Montreal, Nicholas Payton, Kurt Elling, Branford Marsalis, the New York and Jerusalem Philharmonics, Slavic Soul Party and the Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra.

The family of a Bronx bodega worker shot and killed by police is filing a $25 million lawsuit against the New York City Police Department.
Reynaldo Cuevas was killed while trying to escape an armed robbery at the bodega in September of 2012.
Investigators say he ran into the responding officer who had his gun drawn.
They believe that the impact caused the officer's gun to go off.
The family's attorney, Sanford Rubenstein, said that the shooting could have been prevented.
"It is our position that the negligence and carelessness of this police officer caused the wrongful death of this fine young man," Rubenstein said. "He was doing nothing wrong. He was an innocent victim, a young man who worked at the store, fleeing robbers, shot to death by a police officer."
The Bronx district attorney's office cleared the officer of any crime.
The three men who allegedly robbed the store have been charged with second-degree murder for their role in Cuevas' death.

A Virginia nonprofit's anonymous donations may have decided the Irvine mayor and council races.
Nonprofits are not required to disclose their donors in California if they make no more than a single political donation and most of their spending is not on campaigns. Supporters say the primary motive for donors is not necessarily political and donors might not even agree with the political spending of a nonprofit they support.
Additionally, Irvine-based Republican consultant Jon Fleischman argues that political freedom of speech can be restricted if a donor is afraid of political retribution for supporting the opponent of a person in power.
But open government groups, including California Common Cause, say that full disclosure of campaign contributors is essential to keeping voters informed and that voters deserve to know who is funding candidates and causes.
An out-of-state political group appears to have violated election laws when it funneled $200,000 in anonymous campaign donations to a conservative Orange County committee, which spent the money in a successful bid to shift the longstanding balance of power on the Irvine City Council, documents and interviews show.
Contributions from Virginia-based Citizens in Charge potentially violate laws governing political activity and donor disclosure by nonprofit groups. The case is similar to the much larger 2012 Arizona-based contribution for statewide ballot measures that resulted in a record $16 million in fines and settlement payments.
The California Fair Political Practices Commission, whose investigation into the earlier case led to the penalties, is now investigating a 600-page complaint alleging money laundering and conspiracy to hide donors' identities in the Irvine matter. It's the latest in a growing debate over anonymous political donations in the state and across the nation.
"The apparent scheme will, if allowed to succeed, provide a convoluted, clever and deceptive template for keeping secret the identities of campaign donors in California in all future elections," reads the complaint, filed by former county Democratic Party Chairman Frank Barbaro.
A total of $186,000 was poured into the Irvine mayoral and City Council races by California Term Limits PAC, which was formed three months before the election by Irvine resident and Republican consultant Jon Fleischman.
Fleischman's PAC received nearly all its money – 98 percent – from Citizens in Charge, according to campaign disclosures. And nearly all its spending – 93 percent – was directly on the Irvine mayor and council races.
Nonprofits like Citizens in Charge, dubbed a 501(c)(4), are not required to disclose their donors provided they abide by rules governing such organizations. But the pending complaint and other documents indicate Citizens in Charge strayed from those rules.
The Irvine spending was particularly significant in the mayor's race, where $117,000 in independent expenditures from Fleischman's PAC – mostly for campaign mail – went to support eventual winner Steven Choi and to oppose loser Larry Agran. That dwarfed the $60,000 Choi's own campaign spent and helped him keep pace with the $182,000 spent by the Agran For Mayor campaign.
Choi backers counter that the PAC spending did not approach the $657,000 spent in support of Agran's Measure BB Irvine schools initiative, an effort that portrayed Agran in a positive light. But while the school measure prevailed, Agran's mayoral campaign did not.
Republicans won two council seats – including the mayor's – and Democrats won one, shifting the majority to Republicans. While the posts are officially nonpartisan, the council has long divided down party lines and the two county parties are heavily involved in the city's council races. Democrats – led by Agran – had controlled the council majority since 2001.
Irvine's Great Park, slated for hundreds of millions of dollars in improvements, has been a particular source of dispute between the two council factions, and that has continued since Choi's Republican side won the majority. One of the new majority's first orders of business in January was to reduce the Great Park board from nine members to five – the five council members. The four members excised typically sided with Agran and the Democrats.
The new majority also removed Democrat Beth Krom as board chairman, installed Republican Jeff Lalloway in the post, and dismissed an Agran-friendly public relations firm that had received a no-bid contract. All of these Great Park votes were 3-2, split along party lines.
A development deal for the Great Park, which included approval for 4,606 new homes just outside the park, was approved by the City Council this month in another 3-2 vote in which the new majority flexed its muscle.
The Register contacted several possible donors to Citizens in Charge, all of whom denied giving the group money. That included the beneficiary of the development vote, FivePoint Communities.
Choi said he did not know who gave Citizens in Charge money, and the complaint to the FPPC also was far from certain where the money came from.
