The Arab monarchies that emerged under British auspices from the wreckage of the Ottoman Empire have always represented an anachronism, in sharp contradiction to the whole direction of modern history and human progress elsewhere in the world."
Saudi Arabia is still an absolute monarchy. Few people in the West have any comprehension of what this means. Under the House of Saud, there are no guaranteed rights, no separation of powers, no checks and balances, no guarantee of due process. There is no written constitution. The monarch is considered to be the owner of the entire country and of all the people in it, over whom he exercises a theoretical - and sometimes grimly practical - power of life and death. Representative bodies are sometimes chosen or nominated, but they are purely consultative: they can offer advice the crown, but they have no power to block or implement any policy.
The hedonistic Persian Gulf monarchs need to contemplate the sad fate of Louis Philippe II, the Duke of Orleans, in the French Revolution. Descended from the younger branch of the French royal House of Bourbon, he thought he could ride the tiger of revolutionary agitation and gain more power for himself. He called himself Philippe Egalité, and organized the 1789 storming of the Bastille which set off the revolution. He voted for the death sentence for his relative, Louis XVI. But in the end, the forces Philippe Egalité had unleashed turned against him, and he died on the guillotine in November 1793 at the height of the reign of terror which he had helped to unleash. The Persian Gulf monarchs pretending to support revolutions should take note.

Program Facts
Students apply to this major during their sophomore year. To gain admittance, students should have completed 10 credits within the major (which must include ENGL 2105, and a minimum grade of B- therein) but no more than 24 credits. The admission process also requires a departmental interview, a brief essay, and a review of students' unofficial transcripts and applications. Please visit our webpage for more information regarding entrance to the journalism major.
Major: 46 credits
We encourage students to pursue several internships during their undergraduate years. These can be volunteer or paid positions, or even a part-time job.

Some of the intern positions students have held include Production Assistant-KARE-11 TV; Communications Assistant-Senator Norm Coleman's office; and Promotion Assistant-Midwest Communications.
Journalists are still needed! Even though the mediums by which we convey information are constantly changing, the world still needs critically minded thinkers who can convey information in a thoughtful, easy-to-understand way.
Graduates of Scholastica's Communication, Theatre and Art department have gone on to find work as journalists, lawyers, lobbyists, photographers, sales representatives, publishers, film producers and directors, and more.

"What I liked best about my experience in journalism at St. Scholastica was the flexibility. I didn't have to decide between print, radio or television, as I was able to get internships and experiences in all of the avenues of journalism I was interested in. The open access to the college's newspaper, the CABLE, was also key in developing and improving my interviewing and writing skills. When I did become a professional journalist, that's when I realized my breadth of experiences were so important."

The Disposable American
Louis Uchitelle (Knopf)
Layoffs were supposed to help struggling American companies adjust to a changing world. One catch: they've permanently damaged job security, sparked ill-advised mergers, and eroded unions, health care, and pensions—while failing to solve the problems they were meant to address in the first place.
America at the Crossroads
Francis Fukuyama (Yale)
Mugged by reality in Iraq, a prominent neocon breaks with his ideological allies, counseling greater respect for supranational institutions. Having shed the "neoconservative" tag, he pithily declares himself a "realistic Wilsonian."
Peter Schrag (California)
The Golden State is still beset by demographic, cultural, and economic complexity.
American Ally
Con Coughlin (Ecco)
A British journalist's in-depth assessment of Tony Blair's relationship with George W. Bush during the war on terror yields a verdict somewhere near the middle of the lapdog–lone wolf spectrum.
American Theocracy
Kevin Phillips (Viking)
The oracle of the emerging Republican majority examines the fruits of his prophecy and further predicts that an overreliance on oil, excessive debt, and the politicization of religion will lead America to certain doom.
Isabel Kershner (Palgrave)
A look at life on both sides of the wall being built between Israel and the West Bank.
A Nation Among Nations
Thomas Bender (Hill Wang)
Taking exception to exceptionalism, the author argues that the American Revolution was but a sideshow in a long-running French-British grudge match, and that the Civil War was just another eruption of mid-nineteenth-century restlessness in the mold of the European revolutions of 1848.
The Divided Ground
Alan Taylor (Knopf)
A narrative account of the settling of the northern border of what would become the United States. The Indians thought they could preserve some of their land by leasing rather than selling it to the newcomers. The colonists disagreed.
Upon the Altar of the Nation
Harry S. Stout (Viking)
A religious historian asks, Was the Civil War justly fought?
31 Days
Barry Werth (Nan A. Talese/Doubleday)
A painstaking reconstruction of the period between Richard Nixon's resignation, in August of 1974, and his pardon a month later. Never has the Ford administration seemed so gripping.
The Great Wall
Julia Lovell (Grove/Atlantic)
A history of the literal and figurative walls that China has raised between itself and the outside world over the past three millennia.
Gustave de Beaumont (Harvard)
Nineteenth-century Ireland gets the Tocqueville treatment.
Mussolini's Italy
R. J. B. Bosworth (Penguin Press)
A leading Mussolini biographer describes how Italians' traditional bonds of tribe and family made Fascism slightly less de facto totalitarian than Nazism. Cold comfort, but still.
Scars of War, Wounds of Peace
Shlomo Ben-Ami (Oxford)
A history of the Arab-Israeli conflisct, written by a former Israeli foreign-affairs minister.
Tamerlane: Sword of Islam, Conqueror of the World
Justin Marozzi (Da Capo)
A British journalist retraces the conquering footsteps of Genghis Khan's successor. After seizing Baghdad, Tamerlane's men built a pyramid using the heads of 90,000 of his enemies--the fifteenth-century version of shock and awe.
Natalie Zemon Davis (FSG)
The exhausting tale of al-Hasan al-Wazzan: born in Spain, captured by pirates, and forcibly converted to Christianity, he won fame as Leo Africanus after publishing the first geography of Africa to appear in Europe.
The Life of Benjamin Franklin: Journalist, 1706–1730 and Printer and Publisher, 1730–1747
J. A. Leo Lemay (Pennsylvania)
The first two installments of a projected seven-volume biography of one of the portlier Founding Fathers.
Elaine Feinstein (Knopf)
A biography of Anna Akhmatova, who was born under czar, suffered under Stalin, and died under Brezhnev, yet maintained a poetic sensibility throughout.
Thomas Brothers (Norton)
Armstrong moved away from New Orleans as a young man, but not before the city's social and cultural complexities had left an indelible mark
At Canaan's Edge
Taylor Branch (Simon & Schuster)
The third volume of Branch's magisterial biography of Martin Luther King Jr. stretches from "bloody Sunday" in Selma to King's assassination, in Memphis, three years later.
Peter Richmond (Holt)
A biography of Peggy Lee.
Paul Johnson (HarperCollins)
The second installment of a projected trilogy—the first being the same author's Intellectuals—probes the hidden mechanism of human creativity, turning to Chaucer, Austen, Bach, and Disney for insight.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

When chrome first came out on lacrosse sticks, I was definitely a fan of the idea. I had my doubts about the durability of the chrome at first, but as the manufacturers tweaked their processes, the product improved, and it seemed like it was here to stay. A chrome head on the field was a rarity only a short time ago, then they were everywhere, and now we've settled down somewhere in the middle. The Lama would be proud.
In New Orleans I probably saw a grant total of 8 chrome pieces of lacrosse equipment… 1 women's head (which had been dyed), 1 men's head (that had been dyed) a couple of colored chrome heads, and one all silver chrome helmet. I'd say there were about twice as many dyed heads as chrome. But that doesn't mean the chrome trend is over. In fact, we might only be getting started.
The website Trendland recently posted about chroming out your food. Yes, your food. It seems crazy, right? But it could also be cool, as long as the foodies follow some basic rules that we've already learned. Lacrosse gear heads sharing best practices with home cooks and chefs… it's a little bizarre. But then again, so is a shiny banana.
To the rules!
1) Chrome the right thing. Chrome helmet? Cool. Chrome head? Cool. Chrome shoulder pads? Overkill. The same would go for food. Chrome the turkey? Why not? Chrome the mashed potatoes? What, are you crazy? Think center piece, not accessory.
2) Too much chrome is a bad thing. I love the ALL chrome helmet look, but it's about as far as I can go with chrome. Don't rock one of those with a chrome head, shiny shaft and silver pads. You'd just look like a futuristic space knight. And the same goes with food. If you're going to chrome the main course, or a starter, don't chrome the desert. It's hard to show restraint, but trust us, it's worth it.
3) Get artistic, not addicted. Once the initial craze died down, people started to experiment with the next level of chrome, and they came up with some pretty cool results. A silver chrome head could be dyed, and the level of shine went down the darker the dye. Instead of getting an all chrome helmet, teams got chrome face masks or chin pieces. Manufacturers even began to combine chrome with matte or fade from one color to another, to truly come full circle. So the key here is to NOT just chrome everything, but to find select places where one can be creative. The results will be much more stunning.
Nothing too groundbreaking here, but we've seen our own community get caught up in the craze, so we thought we might be able to help all those food obsessed people out there deal with the oncoming wave of shiny cookies.
All photos courtesy Trendland. Big thanks to Matt S for sending this in!!!! Very funny, and yes, right up our alley.

A woman looks at the HealthCare.gov insurance exchange internet site October 1, 2013 in Washington, DC. Have you shopped around through Covered California?
It's been two weeks since the new healthcare insurance exchanges under Obamacare came online. California said about 29,000 people signed up in the first week. According to Covered California, the state's online health insurance marketplace, the site had over 980,000 unique visitors. Some 59,000 people called the agency's call centers.

Finding and Installing Cartridges after Moving to Another Country
HP customizes some products and cartridges to meet specific local customer needs. During your initial printer setup, the printer automatically set itself to accept cartridges specific to a country or region. If you take your product from that country to another country, you might not find cartridges with the same number on the label as your original cartridges. These cartridges will not work in your product even though they appear to be compatible with it. If you purchase cartridges that you believe are compatible with your product, and then try to install them, you might see one of the following error messages:
- 'Incompatible Cartridges'
- 'Cartridge Not Intended for this Printer'
- 'Incorrect Cartridges'
Follow these steps to identify cartridges that are compatible with your product, and then contact an HP support agent to resolve the issue of error messages.

Isabella: Turned 6 months old today.
Bella went to the vet for a nail trim and a weigh in today. She has gained nearly 30% from the last visit at 50 pounds early in May.
She still has her girly figure: rolleyes:
Still no signs of her going into heat or other problems.
Weight: 63.5
Head: 17"
Chest: 29"
Waist: 23"
Length: 34"
Height: 25"
This GSD is a Beaver / Woodpecker...
She know's to get into the crate -- without a big fuss.
Thanks, Selzer, I have tried to make her all she can be.. Bella, @ 5 months was larger then most of the dogs I saw at the K-9 demonstration. A few were bigger, they were males, she is one large female pup, who was supposed to be the runt of the litter. Who know's.. It's all speculation when you see a pup you love.. Loving and getting to know the word gentle..
You should see how well my wife does in this challenging situation, she really is getting the hang of a high drive animal, fast.. Yeah !

|Nice looking pup!
Picture taken on, May 13, 2014
50 lbs. 21 weeks old
Just passed five months of age may 25th.
Isabella, is five months old. Nothing really important to report. On June 25, 2014 at 6 months, I will post more recent pictures. Teeth are coming in. Chewing on balcony 2" X 2" wood vertical's while I am not close by. Learning how to be a guard dog from the Schutzhund, Jack Russell Terrier, Nelson. Follows the leader of the pack. Bite's him on the neck, in play. Nelson is teaching Bella to growl while playing, "tug a war" with a double knotted rope toy.
Going down stairs is not an issue. Cut carrot's out of her diet and the redness in the ear's is gone. She is large like a male, large head, long and lean, jumps pretty high on block walls during walks for playtime. Heal's pretty well on lead. More attentive at 5 months then at 3 or 4 months. More eye contact. Waiting for first heat. She will not ever have puppies, as their are much better examples out there. Her long, lean, slow sloping top line is very nice. She is not heavily angulated and I am happy about that. Met a great trainer, we have had some discussions, but there is no issues thus far where a 2 hour session @ $300.00 for a professional K-9 handler retired police Sergeant is necessary now, as I am leaning towards Bella being a "PTSD" dog as I really love when a older person (70+) wishes to be loved on, "she pours on the charm and really shines in that area." We will see.
All is good in GSD land, free Hamburger, cooked Chicken and lots of coconut oil for a nice shiny shed free black coat.
Thanks !

Quick update.
From Hamburger City, CA
Dog had urine test for UTI yesterday @ $115- with meds. + the office visit. The vet calls and say's the white count is elevated, (yes I know). Ph is off maybe on the acidic side and she has crystals. Well smart guy, we have her on bentonite powder (animin montmorillonite powder) the amount was recently doubled as she weighs 50 pounds now, and it is exiting the body.
The Animin is great, has worked wonder's, but now it's just not necessary everyday. As a cleanse, once a week, maybe, if it indeed caused the UTI, it's rocks and minerals, so don't be too surprised if you see crystals in the urine, because no matter how fine the powder is; it must exit the body, taking with it, any impurities the negative charged ions pick up, and eliminate.. Were talking about 72 trace minerals, very important, but a potential risk of infection...
Vet visit yesterday and just a mere troublesome UTI issue...
From Hamburger City, CA
Bella, was acting funny. She got into my daughter's bathroom trash can, may not be related. She wanted and acted like she wanted to pee, squatted but nothing several times. We went for a walk and after the initial pee, she tried again 6 - 7 times on around the block walk. So, I investigated the fact I was off a week on my last post, 20 weeks old on Wed. this coming week, thought maybe an early heat > ? No, not the case.
This is where I get upset with the protocol of vet's, my vet included, their like politicians, all of them, staff included. The girl on the phone tried to convince me that my urine sample could be contaminated. I ran through the dishwasher a Tupperware that was held under the dog. She insisted that the dog urine sample would be best obtained at the office by subcutaneous injection to the bladder or direct from the urethra. I said a very firm; "male ego" NO NOT HAPPENING your way. Not only of cost, but discomfort.
Next issue, I grilled my vet of 27 years for more information. He took the sample and dipped a swab for; "white blood cell count," Okay, $65.00 for urine to be sent to the lab and HE already know's which medicine to use, again; "notso happy."
He comes back into the room and say's it's a # 1... > ? What does # 1 mean I asked in a stern voice?? He replied; that on a # 4 scale, Bella had an elevated white blood count of 25%. Finally, I am getting somewhere in this mystical world of Vet. medicine. Keflex every 12 hours for 7 days will cure your issue SGCSG...
Started medicine, waiting on test results today.
This is what bother's me. I was schooled in this in; 1987. We did not run tests. We gave pups worm medicine anyway, we gave sick dog's antibiotics, we gave ice cubes to dehydrated dogs, we sidestepped every possible effort on a vets part to charge money for unnecessary tests. Yes, we X-rayed hips, but we saved thousands of dollars every step of the way and now, 27 years later, were back in kindergarten, looking like fools at the vet's office, and paying the price. Soothing video's of kitty cats, on the TV then WHAM, $400 visit for some poor uneducated fool. Even the cash register dinged like a Las Vegas Slot machine. They need to give dog owner's doggie downer's upon arrival to soothe their nerves as they will up-sell you a bath, upon pick-up from boarding.. I am a capitalist, not a dog-gone fool..
Sorry for the rant, there's good info in my post !!!

Police seek help to identify tattoos
WAXAHACHIE - The Waxahachie Police Department is seeking help to identify the couple pictured to the right.
Sgt. Brad Doughty advised the two used stolen checks to purchase gift cards recently.
On Friday, Dec. 19 during the late evening hours the victims Ford F-150 was parked in Don Jose's restaurant parking lot where it was burglarized while the victims were patronizing at Don Jose's.
According to reports, the victim's mother had left her purse in the vehicle along with several other items.
Within hours of the vehicle burglary, the man with the tattoos and the female, who appears to be pregnant with a gray hoodie, used the victims checks and credit cards to purchase numerous gift cards and other miscellaneous items from Wal-Mart in Waxahachie, Ennis and Lancaster as well as a trip to Mesquite.
"We believe these two suspects to be responsible for several other car burglary cases we're investigating in our city along with the fraud crimes that follow the car burglaries," stated Doughty.
Law enforcement across the nation cannot stress enough the public should never leave anything in plain view locked in their cars, especially during the holidays.
"Purses should be locked in a trunk with the wallet removed," advised Doughty.
Christmas shopping stops should be limited so the vehicle is not piled up with gifts that may be too large or too difficult to hide out of plain view or expect to make several trips to and from home to unload.
Police are hoping someone will be able to identify the tattoos on the male's forearm.
Anyone with information should contact Doughty at 972-937-9940.

We had a plain old stir-fry for dinner, but I purchased (time not being sufficient to make) a very nice cake.
Just as Ilya was putting plates on the table for the cake, and making a little joke (which he so rarely, does - evident of his happy mood) of putting the entire cake on his plate.....I hear glass breaking in the kitchen, a glass falling into the sink. Innocently stupid me; I hadn't even noticed that the presentation of this cake was pulling a trigger. Sergei said, "That doesn't sound good." And it wasn't good. It wasn't an accident. It was the beginning of a couple of hours of really, really bad energy.
The first thing that I noticed, after obliviously attributing the shattered glass sound to an accident, was Anastasia going into the living room and pouring a Diet Coke on the carpet. Then she began to grab the various things in the room, pillows, books, etc., and throw them all over. Of course I left the table and went in there and did all I could do to defuse the bomb.
I'm not particularly astute or bright. I could tell this was birthday-related, and figured it was also probably a delayed reaction to reading all her paperwork from Russia. This is something she decided in therapy that she had to do, and her therapist agreed that Anastasia had the right to know everything there was to know. [By the grace of God her paperwork was not as bad as it might have been....lots of repetition, refrains almost - "mother known to be of bad reputation" "public drunkenness" "immoral lifestyle" "left without foodstuffs, or furniture" "not taken to the doctor to get inoculations or check ups" "not sent to kindergarten or given any education" "left to beg". After reading it she commented to me about her mother not "visiting or showing any interest in" her baby brother, but apart from that there wasn't much that Anastasia didn't already know and actually remember. However, I should have known there was a time bomb there.
She didn't know what to say, I guess. So, she had to show me what she felt. She grabbed the papers out of her notebook and tore them up and threw them around the living room. I made a few miss-steps because I recall at one point her threatening me if I said "anything bad about my mother!" But, later she expressed her anger that Ilya was cared for, Ilya was fed, but she wasn't, and got angry at me for suggesting that her mother did the best she could..... [no winning in this game]
At one point, she ran through the house grabbing photos of herself and tearing them up. Then she ran to the desk where a big envelope of all the kids photos are kept, and she did tear up one of Lydia; somehow I got them and hid them while she was doing that. She grabbed my arms and held me (I really didn't try to get away....just to look into her eyes and listen). Eventually (after at least an hour of hard work on my part coping with her anger and violence) she burst into tears and expressed her anger and grief.
Of course, feeling that Ilya was more fortunate than she was to begin with, taken to live with grandma and fed, seeing him presented with a birthday cake was way.too.much. It was interesting that for the first time her threats of retribution went past the poor souls who adopted her, to include going to Russia to find her family and make all their lives a "living hell". (About this time, I was envisioning buying her the ticket, frankly.)
One great difficulty that hangs over our child-management is that husband is a behaviorist and we never agree on how to handle Anastasia in these fits. Because his methods haven't worked, and mine often seem to (albeit delayed), he pretty much leaves me to it. But, if he had his way, would deal with the behavior (regardless of origin) and would put her in "time out" [like we have a padded room to hold her???]. This is what he says, anyway. He would give her punishments for this kind of behavior. I can't imagine what punishments we could give her, honestly. All she does for any sort of escape is watch TV. She is in bad shape at the moment, with no social life. She shows little interest in eating. But my husband has some idea that she "enjoys" this stuff (I think she is in hell during it, myself). In any case, he wants her to PAY.
To be fair, in most of my reading - even Karyn Purvis, there is some expectation that after the meltdown is over, the child will be expected to do some sort of reparation. While this seems reasonable, I have not had any luck with it. The next day can come; she can be more or less regulated again, but the moment I begin to touch on what occurred, I can see that she is filled with shame for what she did, and the shame threatens to throw her back where she was and launch a repeat..... She seems more able to re-visit the ugly place than do any sort of "re-do" or "reparation".
Am I doing something wrong, or is she too far gone? Or is my husband right? As regards this, I'm at a loss.
What I usually do is try and help her get through the fit via acceptance and curiosity, then the boil breaks, so to speak; she crumples in tears and grief and neediness and reveals the heart of the pain she is feeling. She is vulnerable; I try and give her comfort and a feeling of safety. That is the end.
Seems to me on some level, like she's suffered herself going through all that anger to the place of honesty and vulnerability. The process was its own punishment. I just can't really see why other "punishment" is necessary.....though reparation seems like a "nice" idea. I just can't see it happening, as it would require going back to that feeling of seeing herself as a nasty, bad, destructive person, from a place of more relative peace.
Also I forgive easily, and my forgiveness involves forgetting. Real forgetting. Maybe I don't want to "go back there" any more than she does....because I always feel as though she has moved forward, fought a demon, and is in a new place.
By the way, if you want to feel sorry for me.....when it was all over and, shaking and worn, I shuffled into the kitchen to get a piece of cake.....due to miscalculation, it..... was.... all.... gone.

Battleship: You Sunk My iPhone!
Friday, January 29, 2010 at 8:09AM by Johnny5
I was never a board game fanatic as a kid. I didn't really take to Candyland, Mouse Trap was a total mystery, and Monopoly was way too much work to be worth it. Battleship, though, always rung my bell, and now I have a chance to carry the game around with me.
The best thing about this port is that it is still the quintessential Battleship. When porting an old classic to a new platform, there is a tendency to go overboard in changing the gameplay, layout, or structure. Here we get the classic board and pegs with some cool animations and a nice user interface. Plus a bunch of new options and game-play modes.
You can buy Battleship HERE.

Need a Quote? Turn to Deion Branch.
Athletes are not known for their wonderful public speaking abilities. They aren't unintelligent – most of them, anyway – it's just that they've been taught to think roboticly about things like effort, workrate, and desire, so the inevitable soundbites are cliches focusing on those themes.
But every now and again, an athlete surprises reporters with smart, thoughtful commentary. Landon Donovan jumps to mind. So does Charles Barkley.
Apparently, we can add Deion Branch to the list. Read more

Don't Click It<>p>Don't Click It is an experiment in human interface design. It is a strange one.
You are allowed one click to start off the interface, and from then on as you use the mouse to grok the interface, you are warned not to click.
If you do so, you shock the monkey and you are asked why you clicked. If you haven't clicked in awhile you will be surveyed on if you miss it: "Do you miss the click within this interface".
It is highly strange to navigate for an extended period without clicking.
Mouse-clicking has always seemed so primitive. We are like prehistoric creatures that can only simple point at something and bark. It will be interesting to see how long it will take for the next breakthrough. Until then we are left with the gillette approach of "add more blades", but in our world it means more buttons and wheels on a mouse.

Really nice and fresh idea. But for my taste, it's too splashing and involves too many movements over the screen. Some ways of navigation are really difficult to follow. I don't think that such totally "non-clicking" interfaces should be used in real-life applications and sites.
Although this is a site over a year old, it's still being updated from time to time and innovates more and more.
I think this interface is horrible. Ouch, I had opened everything, what I did not want, and I could not opened that I wanted. :D
Good for play, wrong for real applications. I think.
It seems to me that the idea for a clickless interface for major navigation based upon mouse movement and position is idiotic at best (for most purpopses, or for purposes of web navigation anyhow). It's a gimmick, with a profoundly negative effect on usability.
It is ok to temporarily emphasize/expand and de-emphasize/contract elements on mouseover and mouseout, provided that a complete mouseover/mouseout cycle does not permanently alter the current state of the document. There are big problems with using mouseover/out as a major navigational event. Hovering your mouse over an object doesn't mean you want to engage it–99% of the time, it means that the object just happened to be between where your mouse was and the thing you actually wanted to click on. mousehovers are largely incidental, wheras clicking (or pushing buttons) is deliberate.
Using incidental, rather than deliberate events to trigger major ui changes/navigation seems likley to yeild a gross misinterpretation of the users actual intentions.
[...] I had stumbled on to DontClick.it, and read about it at Ajaxian. It is an experiment to study removal of mouse clicks from our usage. It has been replaced with gestures and timers. What you see today is the Phase I which asks lot of questions. How hard is it to break with our clicking habits? What happens, if we remove the essential element of navigation from an interface, which we are accustomed to? Does it change our behaviour of navigation? Is this change for good or for bad? What do we gain from it? Do we miss the Click at all? Does this have any influence on our perception of the interface? Is clicking really rooted that deeply in us, that we can not resist it? … [...]
Exactly JoeBoy, this is why it is an experiment. I used this site successfully to get customers to realise that a drag and drop interface without any initial clicking (and therefore support for keyboard users) makes a lot more sense than one that automatically activates the drag and drop.
The idea is really interesting. Definitely proves a point though: clicking is essential!
Seriously, all the click alternatives are ridiculous!
Who would want to circle around a button to activate it!?
Is it really so "idiotic"? is it really so "horrible"? And the "just for play" analogy simply doesn't fly in a world of interaction that rewards exploration as much as data entry or search.
sure there's a frustration factor – its not exactly meant to be an application so much as proving a point. for me, its not a matter of replacing the click so much as understanding other gestural possibilities offered by the mouse.
the argument stating that "mouseovers are largely incidental" is highly debatable. Yes, I can see this approach having serious problems on the desktop where many active targets exist in different contexts, but in a localized demonstration running in a window, I think it works surprisingly well.
While I can't call this practical (not exactly intended to be), I do consider it a solid design. For the most part I didn't inadvertently trigger mouseovers, and if I did, recovering from my "error" wasn't particularly difficult – again, this is a limited domain. Work on a larger scale would certainly be problematic, yet I feel certain aspects of dontclickit would work nicely in the context of image editing/painting or music composition/performance – where realtime manipulation of data in a fluid & spontaneous manner is an asset.
For spreadsheets, email & coding; quite frankly, some tasks are just a few steps removed from their teletype roots
[...] How long can you go without clicking on a website interface is the question asked by this user interface experiment posted today on Ajaxian. The website experiments with building a clickless interface and it pulls it off fairly well. It doesn't take long to figure out how to navigate menus pages with only movements of your mouse. The idea comes from the fear of a mouse with ever an increasing number of buttons. They have clickless experiments and and games to show that mousless interfaces are functional and even suggest a humorous product that would help ween you away from clicking a mouse: [...]
[...] Leggo su Ajaxian di un esperimento per un'interfaccia web senza click portato avanti su Don't Click It (non lasciatevi trarre in inganno dal dominio .it, in effetti non ho idea di chi ci sia sotto ma l'inglese è molto corretto, che mi fa pensare che non siano italiani, quando in un post la parte tra parentesi è molto più lunga della parte FUORI dalle parentesi ma che cosa ce le metti a fare 'ste parentesi). In sostanza il cielo si apre se clicchi con il mouse, l'esperienza è un po' pavloviana ma interessante. [...]
Clicking clearing depends on context. Rollover menus, like those found at the top of a page for navigation are almost always assumed to activate without a click. The only time a click should be inferred is when the cursor changes to a hand instead of a standard pointer. I could see using this system with just a couple of days of getting used to it.
What about when you just want to move the mouse out of the way because it may obscure text?
I don't like it, the mouse button is a tool for me to tell the interface do this or that.
It reminds me of the routine where the gentleman is in a silent auction and accidently scratches is nose during a high bid item.
Why? Just why?
Completely wrong. Rollovers are a horrible idea that should die now. With rollovers, the screen becomes a minefield of accidental actions that must be navigated and avoided. With clicks, the cursor hovers above the playing field, moving freely about in any direction, and only touching down when a deliberate action is desired.
An obvious example are those inline ad words. You may think you're headed for the menu bar, but pass over one of those and suddenly you got junk appearing on your screen.
And how does the example in this story improve on things? It behave exactly as if it were clicked. The only "advantage" is that it saves the user from having to actually press the button. And even in this carefully contrived demo, if you want to read the text under the cursor, and so nudge it out of the way, suddenly everything changes, and the thing you were reading goes away.
Gary R Boodhoo — October 30, 2006 asks:
> Is it really so "idiotic� is it really so "horrible�
Click on YES.

A mouse-driven interface without click support is like a car with no brake pedal.
I was going to expand more, but I think that's really all I can say about the concept. As for this particular implementation, it looks like they went back to 1997 and had Kevin Kelly vomit into a Flash MX project.
One very interesting this interface shows up is that we get used to what we do everyday..!! Inorder to learn to get into new "groove" – we really have to break from our existing mindset that makes us believe that if there's a link on a Web – One must ckick on it :)
A very nice study on human psyche..!
I think that this has some applicablity in the area of accessible user interfaces. However, for mainstream use I am not yet convinced.

I understand this is only a study right now. I have a couple of observations:
1. There was a send mail feature similar to what I'm typing this comment right now. Fine, no problem, but what happens if I find out there was a typo on some line above, how do I position the cursor w/o clicking to fix the typo?
2. How would the author(s) plan to handle drag and drop w/o clicking?
I managed not to click until the end when I clicked on purpose. It felt very unnatural, like playing basketball without being allowed to jump :-)
Reminds me of the Tai Chi story where the master dreamt that he was doing Tai Chi with no arms, and it was only then that he understood how to do Tai Chi movement.
This kind of navigation would be good for some kind of sites, but for many it would be irritating and fraught with accidents. The worst of it is when you have to leave the page to go to another page, you come back and there's nothing to tell you where you were.

This can be useful in the future. We never know. Most of the scientific revolutions were supported by forgotten old experiments brought from the dark when their moment came. This is what innovators should do. And later, others could find the application.
…you will be assimilated, resistance is futile…
What an nice experiment! It reminds me somehow to Milgram's experiment…
as a MS DOS user I found it very hard to learn using a mouse. But then keyboard seemed archaic and mouse was cool. Then I moved to the touch pad and the keyboard. I stumbled upon dontclick today the challenge to not click was stimulating and fun for most part till I could not send them an email!
Provocations in design are required for some good to come out and I say that …as a user and not a designer or techie

Details of Festival / Tour and the Ticket Luck value
Numerous music festivals take place all year around in the US. Music, entertainment and cultural arts can all be seen in one or the other festival. Most of these festivals are held during the summer time. Beach side music events and pool parties are among the ones that are enjoyed the most. With the start of every year, the festival goers get a long list of upcoming festivals, and most of these take place during summer. Festival Tour tickets start selling fast around spring time.
One of the most famous festivals in the country is Bonnaroo. This four-day festival features music of all genres, including jazz, hip-hop, reggae, country and bluegrass. Many famous artists, including Soul Khan, Jenny Suk, Knower and Black Violin have previously performed in the festival. Besides listening to some amazing music and dancing all you want, Bonnaroo also features other activities.
Shopping and food vendors provide the people with a fun and easy way to hang out with their friends. The festival first took place in 2002, and today it is named by Rolling Stone Magazine among the "50 Moments That Changed Rock & Roll" and Consequence of Sound ranked it as "Festival of the Decade". In addition to that, Bonnaroo has also earned much fame, acclaim and awards, for instance SPIN named it as "The Festival of the Year".
The Arts Festival in California, the Great GoogaMooga in New York and the Coachella Valley Music are considered as the warm-up events for the summer music festivals that take place around the country. Music lovers get to dance to the beats and tunes presented by the best artists of electronic, hip-hop, indie-rock and folk genres. These artists include Kendrick Lamar, Beyonce, Nine Inch Nails and Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is a three-day event held in California. The festival features numerous music genres such as hip hop, pop, rock, indie and country. There are different stages, each featuring an artist simultaneously. The main stages include Coachella Stage, Gobi Tent, Outdoor Theatre, Sahara Tent and Mojave Tent. Many acclaimed musicians, including Amy Winehouse, Snoop Dog, Paul McCartney, Roger Waters, Daft Punk, The Cure and Florence and the Machine have performed at the great festival in the past.

In Decay, the new album from New York vintage-synth traveler Com Truise, isn't exactly an album. Rather, it's a collection of studio outtakes and rarities — something a studio rat like Truise churns out incessantly. We've already heard the album track "Open," and now we've got the whole LP streaming below.
In Decay is out 7/17 via Ghostly.

5 Coolest DIY Projects From Detroit Maker Faire 2011
Everybody's favorite celebration of nerdy DIY joy rolled into Dearborn, Mich., last weekend for the second annual Maker Faire Detroit. This year's event added steam-power exhibits and street performers, but the star of the show remained big ideas and clever thinking. These are our favorite projects from the Detroit Faire.
By Ben Wojdyla
Low-Altitude Wind Turbine
Detroit artist and metalworker Carlos Nielbock debuted the Low Altitude Wind Turbine, a beautifully crafted all-metal wind turbine designed to be as much a kinetic sculpture as a power source. It's been under construction for a few months just outside downtown Detroit.

Growing your vegetables from organic seeds will result in high quality, healthy and safe produce. The positive results will be quite evident as organic vegetable seeds tend to germinate quicker, send their roots deeper and often survive in poorer soil conditions than those vegetable plants from seeds that have not been produced organically.
Each order of our organic vegetable seeds is filled by hand and put into a resealable plastic bag before being placed into the labeled seed packet. It is our goal to provide our customers the best seed, both in freshness and in quality.

We can make an iPad-native version, but have to wait until we find a sponsor (the platform which we used to develop the apps limits us by costs). This wasn't free for us, but it's free to you. ;) That, and... I don't know when they're adding support for Android tablets, either (but we're pushing for it).
Any other thoughts, guys & gals?

Why is the Android version of the app so device restrictive? Most of my lower-end Android devices aren't compatible with it (according to the Google Play store) even though it seems to work just fine with them when I side-loaded the APK file from one of the old higher-end Android devices I got for dev testing. I find it really surprising that it's compatible with tablets like Motorola Xoom and Acer Icona but not the Nexus 7 tablet. It runs perfectly fine on my Nexus 7 (except for the QR code reader).
Anyways, nice app!
answered Sep 09 '12 at 00:49
Yes I have. I tried the Android version a few weeks ago when you posted it on Facebook and it's pretty good. I like in the beginning you guys asked for location services, notifications and offline data because that does save me some battery and whatnot. Don't change a thing!

Yes, I've tried the Android version and I ended up just uninstalling it and using the sites instead.
The design bothers me to much, I'm not sure why the developer didn't follow the UI/UX standards and go with a more purist Holo design but I really wish they had. I can't truly say much about the iOS version, but I'll assume the design is similar there.
That said, the regular sites work fine for me, so I'll just continue to use those.
answered Dec 28 '12 at 16:59
Nope! Had absolutely no idea these existed and they won't provide any value to me. I just follow Diana on twitter and use this site, as well as being a subscriber (but rarely a viewer) on YouTube.

Oct 5, 2013Killer is Dead is yet another Suda masterpiece! Or is it just a childish misogynist slayfest? [Sept 2013]
Aug 27, 2013Killer is Dead is a hymn to the multifaceted creativity of a game designer still capable of enhancing the vision of the Japanese video game industry.
Sep 11, 2013Killer is Dead has an excellent technical department, but it's short duration, alongside certain graphic issues, prevent it from sticking out of the crowd. Fans of Suda 51 will love it, while the rest may very well hate it or just be overwhelmed by it's particular gameplay.
Sep 1, 2013Killer is Dead is playable, but it commits a far worse sin than being awkward or glitchy. It takes the fantastic and makes it boring.
Oct 24, 2013Stylish and most of the time entertaining as well, this carnage from the mind of a well known weirdo designer Suda 51 doesn't bring anything new to the table, except for its bizarre aesthetics that may or may not suit you. [Issue#234]
Sep 3, 2013Killer is Dead has a lot going for it. The foundation is there. But the positives are mired beneath a poor gameplay mechanic that makes even simple control a chore. The story isn't allowed to shine due to simplistic writing and stereotypical characters, the difficulty can be very erratic, and too many deaths feel cheap and unfair.
Sep 1, 2013Between the tedious levels, incoherent story and offputting gigolo missions, I found very little to appreciate about Killer is Dead. I grew quite tired of the shallow game design and weak attempts to distract me from its vacuous lack of substance, and put the game down before rolling credits.

The Game is directed at a niche market such as his other games and it hits the mark. This game was made like all games should be; for the enjoyment of those who made, and the fanbase Suda51 has built over the years on a platitude of titles. Pandering to common denominator to sell to wider audience doesn't create good games, or memorable experiences. Developers who make the games they want to play is something the industry desperately needs nowadays.… Expand

This game has been unfairly panned by the majority. This is very much in the mould of no more heroes. Instead of mashing a and b and tilting the wii remote you mash the square button. This game has a great timed dodge which takes a bit of mastering and a combo meter which once it hits 5 you can perform gruesome and satisfying qt kills. The story is the big letdown in this game. It is nowhere near as good as nmh. But saying you play a game for the story is like saying you watched jaws for its interactive elements. The graphics are truly stunning with beautiful contrasted colours and a level of colour intensity I have not seen much. All in all a pleasure to play through. I would heartily recommend this game to any lovers of third person fighting games who especially enjoy a timed dodge/block game mechanic.… Expand
Sep 3, 2013I'm not sure why critics were so mixed about this game. Killer is dead is simply amazing. From start to finish I was immersed in this crazyI'm not sure why critics were so mixed about this game. Killer is dead is simply amazing. From start to finish I was immersed in this crazy story. It is no doubt confusing but I am playing through again a second time and noticing things I didn't on my first playthrough. This is a game you must replay to truly understand what is going on. The cell shaded graphics are beautiful, the voice acting is well done (aside from Mika, she is straight up annoying), and the gameplay is simple yet extremely satisfying. The gameplay is not as deep as DmC or Metal Gear Rising but it is still very fun to hack and slash your way through waves of enemies then using your musselback arm to dish out some cool moves to keep the combo going. The game has a very anime style feel to it which I personally loved. The only part I wasn't a fan of was the gigolo missions which detracted from the overall experience. They are just lame but hilarious at the same time. I don't think they were meant to be taken seriously. Once you get all the sub weapons from the "beauties" you don't have to play them anymore if you don't want to.That and only that is the one downfall of Killer is dead. This game is a must play in my opinion. One of the most original yet far out there games I have ever played.… Expand
Aug 29, 2013Killer is dead is the newest title from the twisted mind of Suda 51, who we know mostly for No more heroes and his masterpiece "killer 7".Killer is dead is the newest title from the twisted mind of Suda 51, who we know mostly for No more heroes and his masterpiece "killer 7". Killer is dead sounded a game that I thought will mostly approach to something in between of no more heroes and killer 7. Killer is dead has a twisted plot just like Killer 7 but unfortunately its too much twisted and sometimes some parts will not be explained and will leave the gamer confuse, I think they would have done a much better job in crafting the story. The dialogues are no match with beautifully crafted dialogues that previously we have seen in No more heroes or killer 7 but still they are quiet weird and somehow sound hilariously funny sometimes.
Aside of the weird story, characters are very well designed. They have this weird feelings sin themselves and they will show up even more weird during the game itself. The main protagonist and his assistant or somehow quiet interesting characters but I would have loved to know more about their past or their relationship.
I Think story in this game is very interesting and its a really new approach to a different kind of story but also I feel like its lacking so much to explain itself to the gamer.
The gameplay is something between Lollipop and no more heroes well a way more action, this time we have a melee weapon and a gun in hand which does give more variety to the gameplay but i wish they could have put more depth in the combos, the slashing scenes are insanely fun and the gruesome battles have chilled up the action which is really good. overall the gameplay is really fun but its not as awesome as no more heroes.
in terms of its presentation its quiet sexualized but its no reason to smash this game i mean I have no idea why websites such as IGN or many others just see this game from point of view of a sexualized game and try ti smash it and blame it This game is rated for adults, and its no worst than Miley Cyrus slutty VMA performance for 14 year old children... i mean seriously this game has been criticizes unfairly. And if those reviewers just see the game through its sexism and stuff I should say they are quiet closed minded.
this is what ART is awlays about. in terms of presentation and visual style I should say Killer is dead is a brave and awesome approach to its goal, sure the gigolo missions sounds perverted but they are no difference with movies or other types of media so its no reason to blame it I like how the game has focused on woman and presented it it sounds quiet a brae approach and it has things to tell that sure the poeple who are into art would understand more.
Technically the graphics are quiet good, animations are smooth but i wish they would have more real feel in themselves, characters are well crafted, some of the environments feels a little empty but its overall presentation is good. the enemeis are as cool as other Suda 51 games as well. A little bit screen tearing appears to be in ps3 version which anoyed me sometimes as well.
Soundtrack is a masterpiece and i have absolutely no word to describe Akira Yamaoka works so listen to it and enjoy.
Overall I think Killer is dead is an enjoyable game, sure it does lack in terms of story and a little bit gameplay compare to no more heroes and killer 7 but its so much better than lollipop chainsaw. I hope we can see more stuff in near future from grasshopper interactive !
Also if u pre ordered the limited edition u gonna get an art book, poster, DLC and soundtrack..… Expand

Unless thats what you want, the same old garbage, stay away.… Expand
