Officially awesome since 1995
The classic game appreciation section: Sonic the Hedgehog
Kicking off a new regular feature, on Sonic's 20th birthday
F.E.A.R.'s enemy AI was legendary at the time, and it's still unbettered now. Every one of the SWAT troopers operating in defence of the Armacham facility at the centre of the horror will think around, react to, and pre-empt every situation you can throw at him with deadly speed and efficiency. Whether operating as part of a squad or on his own, every enemy will adapt to your evolving tactics, the changing state of the battleground, and his own side's successes, failures and dwindling numbers exactly like a real, combat-sharpened, highly trained individual.
Above: Two opponents, but which one is the most dangerous one? Answer: Both of them
Every single enemy needs to be treated with the utmost respect, because every single one can and will take you down in no time at all should you let your guard down for a second. Camping will see you quickly suppressed as a rapid flank-and-flush operation kicks into operation. Rush-down tactics will see the clustered enemy scatter, only to regroup in a wider spread, engulfing you in a multi-directional embrace of lead. Take the team down to a single man in a wide environment and you could be looking at minutes of cat-and-mouse action as you both stealth around the empty battleground, using cover, elevation and misdirection to get the drop on each other.
The first thing you must do at the beginning of every firefight is take quick stock of the exact number and type of enemies you're going up against. Lose track of just one, and you'll find it all too easy to think you've wiped the whole squad only to find yourself whacked with a slug in the back of the head by a hidden lone survivor as you loot the bodies of the fallen for ammo.
Above: He's making a run for it. This could take a while
A friend of mine, the one whose PC I first saw F.E.A.R. running on, once regaled me with an anecdote of one such presumed victory, at the end of which his last opponent had fallen and gone quiet, presumed dead. Several minutes later, my friend was alerted to his survival by a hail of bullets to his own back, in a different room, several winding corridors past the battle. His Lazarus-like nemesis had observed his reactions to what he thought was the end of the fight, laid low, and deftly tracked him through the following areas of the level as he continued on his way, all the while waiting for the opportune quiet moment in which to make his move. It was the same guy all right. It was definitely the same guy. It's just that now he was limping.
I had no trouble believing that story at all.
But F.E.A.R, isn't all about intimidation. Its persistent sense of oppression, both supernatural and tactical, is tinged with some of the most crowning moments of badassery you will ever experience in an action game. The grim satisfaction that comes with ending each and every one of F.E.A.R.'s rapidly evolving fights goes without saying of course. With AI so good that the concept of the word "artificial" stops applying, every battle engages you intellectually and emotionally on a level that very few FPS ever manage. But on top of all of that rests the crown jewel on top of the gleaming platinum-cake. F.E.A.R.'s stunningly implemented slow-motion feature.
Above: Just wait 'til you see it moving. There's so much awesome going on it could make you vomit
Far beyond being a mere piece of post-Matrix aesthetic cool, F.E.A.R.'s regenerating bullet-time ability is a serious tactical aid, as much a tool in combat as cover or weaponry. Allowing you to pick and choose your priority targets with absolute precision, it needs to be used with total discretion in order to gain a tactical jump on the right opponents. Cloaked ninja picking you off from the shadows while ground troops keep you busy? Hold off the slow-mo and knuckle down with full-speed combat until you get a visual on him, then pin him down under a thick blanket of temporal soup and open up on him. Enemy squad hunkered down under unbreachable cover? Throw down a grenade to the side of them, then drop the slow-mo as they scatter, sniping them down like leaden trap-shoot targets limping through treacle.
As for those aesthetics though… Ye gods, F.E.A.R, is a spectacle. With all PC graphical effects cranked, it's an incandescent, multi-coloured soup of motion blur, bullet-trails, Catherine-Wheeling particle effects, and glacially-erupting clouds of blood. The visual impact of the frag grenade's detonation shockwave ripping through the air around it is worth the price of admission alone, and is still one hell of an arresting "Holy Hell!" moment to this day.
Couple all of this with F.E.A.R.'s excellent 'stuntman physics' (a much more refined ragdoll system that uses highly progressive ideas such as actual weighting and anatomical correctness) and the way the then-pioneering sense of full-body, in-game physicality for the player facilitates a brilliantly diverse and kinetic melee system, comprising punches, jump-kicks and slide-tackles, and F.E.A.R.'s combat is some of the most satisfying, stimulating and affecting that has ever graced a shooter.
Only one FPS can turn you into such a psychological wreck while also making you feel so apocalyptically badass. Only one FPS can leave you so invigorated while also so emotionally drained. And only one FPS so satisfyingly lets you slide-tackle into an enemy trooper, launch him into the air, and then pin his realistically-flailing body to the far wall using a precision-aimed nailgun shot to the head, in one fluid motion, all in gloriously cinematic slow-mo. F.E.A.R is that game. Not even Monolith's own sequel could equal it, and you can forget about the atmosphere-deficient bullet-time Call of Duty that is F.E.A.R. 3 right off the blocks. No other horror shooter has so successfully blended all the required elements in such intelligent, lean, and satisfying fashion, and to be honest, I'm doubtful that any ever will again.
Did you play F.E.A.R. at the time? Are you tempted to now? Let me know in the comments and we'll have a nice big conversational exchange. And don't forget, if you want more of this sort of stuff, but want it in the form of a free-wheeling verbal ramble, we do an aurally listenable Appreciation Section every week in our TalkRadar UK podcast.

"2016: Obama's America" Box Office Grows By 341% As It Expands To More Movie Screens
PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Rentrak (NASDAQ: RENT), the leader in multi-screen media measurement serving the advertising, television and entertainment industries, today reported box office information for the documentary, "2016: Obama's America," which is based on conservative author Dinesh D'Souza's book, "The Roots of Obama's Rage." Initially opening in only one theater in Houston, TX, the documentary has expanded to 1,091 theaters and will increase to almost 1,800 theaters by the weekend.
Generating $10.6 million since its release seven weeks ago, "2016: Obama's America" has grown its cumulative box office by 341% since it took in more than $31,000 from its opening weekend in a singular Houston theater location. Texas continues to drive revenue with five of the film's top-10 grossing theatres coming from the state. While California and New York are listed in the top-10 states that have contributed the most to the documentary's box office due to the large size of their respective populations, individual markets including Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York City are part of the lowest performing areas by contrast to the norm.
The top-10 YTD States for "2016: Obama's America" include:
- California
- Texas
- Florida
- Georgia
- Ohio
- Illinois
- New York
- Arizona
- Colorado
- Virginia
The top-5 individual over-performing markets for the documentary include:
- Lima, Ohio

Save the Dates
Photo Tradition Save the Date Magnets I really like the pricing for a package deal. The quality of the save the dates magnets were great. My only complaint would be that I would have liked to have more control over sizing things (lettering, pictures, wording etc).
Great pricing & fast delivery!
Timeless Love Save the Date Magnets We love our save the dates! The process is so easy & fun, and the cards look great. We did feel like the one we ordered to make sure it's what we wanted was a bit more clear than the 125 we finally ordered though, which was a bit disappointing. But overall happy with them! Thank you!

The Bible insists it's more blessed to give than to receive. And if you define living a long and healthy life as blessed, then indeed the Bible is on the mark… or is it Paul? Science has added its own grace note, furnishing some supporting evidence that giving increases the giver's longevity. And that receiving support, while helpful in some ways, isn't always an unmitigated blessing.
The kinds of giving we're talking about are things like driving a friend to the doctor's, helping a sick or elderly neighbor with shopping, volunteering to deliver meals to the housebound or caring for a chronically ill family member. These are known in the psych biz as instrumental support. Then there's out and out emotional support, the kinds husbands and wives give each other, which includes things like making the other person feel loved, cared for and listened to when they need to talk.
Intuitively we believe that helping makes the other person feel better. But receiving support can also generate feelings of dependence. And depending on other people for help and support can cause guilt or anxiety. It can make people feel like a burden to others, and even heighten tendencies to suicide among receivers.

Holocaust Survivor Moshe Fiszman Begs Prime Minister Tony Abbott Not To Change Racial Discrimination Act
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Anne Lu | March 28, 2014 2:20 PM EST
Prime Minister Tony Abbott's plans to change the Racial Discrimination Act have been met with criticisms from various groups. Holocaust Survivor Moshe Fiszman pleads the country's leader to abandon his proposed changes, saying that he would be taking away their freedom in doing so.
Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott tells parliament in Canberra that satellite imagery has found two objects possibly related to the search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370, in this still image taken from video March 20, 2014. Australian search aircraft are investigating two objects spotted by satellite floating in the southern Indian Ocean that could be debris from a Malaysian jetliner missing with 239 people on board, Abbott said on Thursday. REUTERS/Australian Broadcasting Corporation via Reuters TV
The Government has made known of its plans to remove key sections of the RDA, including Section 18C, which makes it unlawful to do an act that is "reasonably likely, in all the circumstances, to offend, insult, humiliate, or intimidate another person or a group of people" based on their racial or ethnic backgrounds.
The Opposition and Greens have opposed the proposal, saying that the changes will just make it legal for bigotry to rule the country.
Mr Abbott claimed that the changes are necessary to remove the restrictions on "free speech," and that they also include strong prohibitions on racial vilification.
Mr Fiszman, a 92-year-old Holocaust survivor who spent the Second World War in Nazi concentration camps, begged to differ.
He penned an open letter to the PM, asking him to abandon his plans to change the RDA.
"You might think you are increasing freedom, but let me assure you that you will be taking away the freedom of communities such as mine. The freedom to live without hatred and without lies being told about us," he wrote.
"That is why every single ethnic community is against this change. Some 39 communities have protested against it. Australia is a beautiful country because, like the United States, we are all migrants – not minorities. But if this law gets up, we will be made to feel like minorities.
"You might think you are increasing freedom, but this change will hurt disadvantages, underprivileged groups, like the Aborigines who regularly visit the Jewish Holocaust Museum."
He continued, "I came to this country because it was the furthest away from Europe I could get. Also, I had four years behind bars as a refugee after the war because nobody wanted me, so I had plenty of time to check out what Australia was made of. I researched its constitution and so forth, and I liked it.
"We are quite happy with the freedom we have got at the moment. There is nothing wrong with it. For God's sake, you can do whatever you like in this country. We are even freer than in the United States.
"What do they want to change this law for? If you start playing around with it, where will it end up? Who is it giving the freedom to? They want the right-wing loonies to have a free rein so they can write and say whatever they like and get away with it scot-free. Holocaust deniers like the Adelaide Institute."
Mr Fiszman was the only member of his family to survive after suffering in various Nazi concentration camps, including the Auschwitz-Birkenau and Dachau.
"This is my opinion as a survivor, the opinion of a man who went through living hell for five-and-a-half years, on death row for 24 hours a day. I am dead against it. Don't let them touch the freedom of the people in the country.
"At the moment I am an Australian. I am not defined as being a Jew or a Catholic or a Protestant. But if these laws go through, we will end up as members of minority groups. Then God help us."
He concluded his letter with: "I love this country. There is no other country in the world as free as ours. Lease don't change the law, Mr Abbott."
Mr Fiszman's letter has been obtained by The New Daily.

RESTful DELETE Method in Spring
by, 11-28-2011 at 01:59 AM (5120 Views)
Continuing on my previous tip, of showing how to write RESTful methods, in this tip, I will show you how to write RESTful methods using the verb HTTP Verb, PUT.
There are times when we might want to get rid of a resource in its entirety. In the case we would use the HTTP DELETE method in order to accomplish this. In this case, I will add another method to the CarController that handles the DELETE requests to remove a Car resource:
Similar to the last tip, the @RequestMapping annotation is similar to the one used on getCar() and putCar(). It differs in that this methods @RequestMapping has its method attribute set to handle DELETE requests. The URL pattern that identifies a Car resource remains the same. Again similar to putCar() and deleteCar(), it is annotated with @ResponseStatus to let the client know whether the request was processed successfully. Remember that no content will be returned in the response. In the next post, we will create a resource using POST methods.Java Code:@RequestMapping(value="/{id}", method=RequestMethod.DELETE) @ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.NO_CONTENT) public void deleteCar(@PathVariable("id") long id) { carService.deleteCar(id); }

Committing to Diversity
Veterans with disabilities underscore inclusivity issues
Thousands of military veterans with disabilities are looking for civilian jobs after serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.
While many employers will welcome their return to the workforce, "sustaining employment for veterans with disabilities will take more than goodwill," said Hannah Rudstam of ILR.
"It will take an enduring and robust commitment to disability inclusiveness in the workplace," she said in an interview.
Rudstam is part of the Disability and Business Technical Assistance Center-Northeast Americans with Disabilities Act Center.
The facility, located in ILR's Employment and Disability Institute, is part of a national network providing training, referrals and other information. Businesses, government, people with disabilities, the media and the public use the free service.
Events celebrating the 20th anniversary of the federal legislation will be held at the ILR Conference Center today.
Open to the public, "Celebrate, Contemplate and Collaborate" events begin at 9 a.m. at the ILR Conference Center. More information is available at http://www.ilr.cornell.edu/edi/register/dbtac_ADA_Anniversary.cfm.
Events include a talk by congenital amputee John Robinson at 11 a.m. today in the conference center.
Rudstam said employers can start the inclusiveness process by asking themselves how people with disabilities fare in their organizations.
"Are they hired? Are they coached? Are their talents and contributions valued? Are accommodations provided quickly and effectively?"
"Ultimately, what happens generally to workers with disabilities in the workplace will happen to veterans with disabilities," Rudstam said.
"The best way to welcome veterans with disabilities back into the workforce is to provide workplace conditions, practices and environments that enable them to fully apply their talents and skills to their jobs."
Despite federal legislation mandating rights for people with disabilities in workplaces and other sites, four of every five Americans with disabilities is unemployed. Fifty-four million people in the United States have disabilities.
"Representing nearly 20 percent of our population, people with disabilities rarely are the focus of diversity efforts. This exclusion is not only problematic on moral grounds, it also compromises the ability of employers to fully engage the talents of their employees," Rudstam said.
"Next time you're at work, look around. According to the U.S. Social Security Administration, about one third of the people in your workplace will acquire a long-term disability before reaching the age of 60."
"For these people, having an employer with effective disability inclusiveness policies will make the difference between staying in or exiting the work force."
"Disability inclusiveness isn't just about the law or about empathy," Rudstam said. "Employers who provide accommodations enabling people with a disability to remain effective in their jobs will reap the benefits of maintaining a fully engaged workforce."

Go Back to School at East Tennessee Museums
The frenzy of football season drives many of us back to our alma mater. Swept with feelings of nostalgia, we return to our old "stomping grounds" and recall many good times.
There's more to a campus visit these days than returning to old hangouts. Universities in East Tennessee have hidden gems: museums with outstanding permanent collections and traveling exhibitions.
You may reject the idea of a museum stop because—after all—you are here to see tackles and touchdowns. Think again and include a museum visit in your weekend.
On the University of Tennessee-Knoxville campus, just a long pass from Neyland Stadium, the McClung Museum of Natural History and Culture is exhibiting "Pueblo to Pueblo: The Legacy of Southwest Indian Pottery" through Jan. 5, 2014. It includes 60 vessels of Pueblo Indian pottery created from the mid-19th to 20th centuries, complemented by photographs of Pueblo villages and peoples. Pueblo pottery making emerged about 2,000 years ago in the Southwest and grew in importance from generation to generation. The finely crafted pieces bear designs reflecting aspects of daily life and spiritual beliefs.
UTK's Ewing Gallery has textiles of Japan and India in its exhibition featuring the works of Amsterdam-based artist Fransje Killaars. She is internationally recognized for vividly colored works with monochrome counterparts.
The Cress Gallery of Art is located in the Fine Arts Center by the concert hall and theater at the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga. George Ayers Cress, founder, was on the art department faculty for more than 50 years. More than 700 works are in the permanent collection, populated by American artists like Robert Motherwell.
Carson-Newman University is exhibiting all seven volumes of the Heritage Edition of the Saint John's Bible. The full-size, museum-quality reproductions display the first handwritten Bible since the advent of the printing press. Pages of calligraphy and illumination are on view in Ted Russell Hall on the C-N campus, Jefferson City.
It may come as a surprise that East Tennessee State University in Johnson City boasts five museums, each with its own raison d'etre.
The B. Carroll Reece Museum, a jewel on the ETSU campus, recently received a $1.7 million renovation. It reopened several months ago but will host the official grand reopening festivities Nov. 8-13, 2013. Two exhibitions open that weekend: "IndiVisible: African-Native American Lives in the Americas" and "Tradition ─ Tennessee Lives and Legacies."
"IndiVisible" explores the lives and experiences of people who share African American and Native American ancestry. "Their rich, intertwined heritage exists in all parts of the country including East Tennessee," said museum director Theresa Hammons. The exhibition presents stories of cultural integration and diffusions and recognizes the great effort to define and preserve identity. The large panel exhibition, circulated by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Services, opens Nov. 9.
The exhibition "Tradition ─ Tennessee Lives and Legacies" uses 25 profiles to highlight the state's folk heritage. Through photographs and essays, the project expresses the strength and diversity of Tennessee's grassroots cultural life. Craftsmen from Hancock County and old-time musicians from Roan Mountain are included in the exhibition. It is sponsored by the Tennessee Arts Commission and will be on view Nov. 8─Dec. 21, 2013.
Celebratory events on Nov. 8 include a behind-the-scenes tour of the museum's archaeology and ethnographic collections, and presentations by Thunder Williams and Penny Gamble-Williams, community curators with the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian. Daniel Bigay, a member of the Echota Cherokee Tribe, will provide musical entertainment. (Ticket required.) Community Day at the Reece on Nov. 9 will be a free, family-friendly event with art demonstrations and musical entertainment.
"ETSU has really taken a lead in preserving regional mountain heritage, along with presenting and promoting the arts," Hammons noted. The Reece Museum is a unit of ETSU's Appalachian Studies & Services. The museum holds more than 22,000 artifacts in its permanent collection.
ETSU's Natural History Museum came into being after the discovery of a large, 5-million-year-old fossil deposit near Johnson City in the town of Gray. The George L. Carter Railroad Museum delves into the region's heritage of coal trains and has three large operating model railroad layouts. Slocumb Galleries, affiliated with the ETSU Department of Art & Design, provide year-round exhibition programs featuring works by students, faculty and visiting artists. The Museum at Mountain Home, associated with the Quillen College of Medicine, holds artifacts related to the medical heritage of South Central Appalachia.

Posts tagged: Nancy McLaughlin
OLYMPIA – Spokane City Councilwoman Nancy McLaughlin was among victims of child sexual abuse urging the Legislature Wednesday to drop the statute of limitations that they say shields pedophiles from justice.
"It took me years to be able to call what happened to me between age 10 and 18 rape," said McLaughlin, who told members of the House Public Safety Committee about years of sexual abuse by her father. "You shouldn't lose the ability to bring about justice just because some years have elapsed."
Michael Ross of Spokane, the founder of Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, said some victims of child sexual abuse don't come to grips with what happened to them until they are in their 40s or 50s. Current law that requires a victim of a child rape to report before turning 29 protects pedophiles, said Ross who told the committee he was abused by a Catholic priest in his teens but repressed that memory until he was 47.
McLaughlin and Ross were among supporters of House Bill 1657, a proposal by Rep. John Ahern, R-Spokane, to lift the statute of limitations for any rape of a minor by an adult. In a sometimes emotional hearing, they and other victims recounted their histories of sexual abuse that they acknowledge the bill can't help because the law can't be made retroactive.
It would, however, tell pedophiles from that point on "they could never escape justice", said Virginia Graham of Spokane, who said she was sexually abused starting at age 10 and her father threatened to kill her if she reported him.
But Lonnie Johns-Brown of the Washington Coalition on Sexual Assault said she was ambivalent about the proposal because it might not have much effect. Rape convictions are difficult even when cases are prosecuted quickly and have hard evidence, she said.
McLaughlin said after the hearing it was the first time she had talked about being sexually abused in such a public setting. She sometimes speaks at victim support groups or other small gatherings. She agreed to testify for the bill because "I think it's the right thing to do."
Her faith has allowed her to move on, she said, but the fact that her father was never held accountable still weighs heavily on her family.
Even without newly elected officials on the Spokane City Council, power appears to be shifting in the New Year.
One year after the council removed Nancy McLaughlin from the board overseeing the Spokane Transit Authority, the Spokane City Council voted to reappoint McLaughlin — the council's only self-described conservative — to the seat. The move booted Councilman Jon Snyder from the position.
City Council President Shogan, who proposed the change, said reappointing McLaughlin to the seat is "strictly a matter of representation."
The city has three seats on the STA board. Spokane's other two members are Amber Waldref, who represents Northeast Spokane and Richard Rush, who represents South Spokane. Snyder also serves South Spokane. Shogan said he supported the change because the city should have an STA representative from Northwest Spokane.
Waldref, who along with Rush and Snyder voted against McLaughlin's appointment, noted that having representatives from each council district is not a requirement and isn't routine for other boards on which council members sit.
Asked why he supported adding McLaughlin back to the transit board after he supported her removal from it last year, Shogan said that last year he "had a different concern."
He declined to explain what that concern was.
Shogan and Snyder have had a few contentious debates in the last couple months. Shogan led the effort to create a tab tax - a proposal that failed later on Monday largely because Snyder voted against it. But the most public and ugly argument between the two was over the proposal to defund a vacant deptuy fire chief position (audio of that debate from Dec. 20 is above).
Council President Joe Shogan took the lead this year on the plan to create a vehicle tab tax while others on Spokane City Council examined other ideas — including a parking lot tax. Shogan's plan is pretty much the only tax left that might be used to help balance the 2011 budget. But it's facing growing opposition on the council.
Three council members were especially angered by the surprise vote to move $1.5 million of street money to the city's rainy-day fund where it could be used to help fund the fire and police budgets. That proposal wasn't publicly vetted until Monday, just before the money was shifted in a 4-3 vote. In the audio clip, Rush is explaining that that vote makes it highly unlikely that he would support a tab tax for the 2011 budget. That, along with arguments from Corker in favor of moving a tab tax vote to January, prompted Shogan's harsh response.
Spokane City Council members on Monday decided to give themselves new taxing authority.
The council voted 5-2 to create a "Transportation Benefit District." The decision means the council will have the ability to enact a vehicle tab tax up to $20. Higher tab taxes would require public votes.
The decision did not enact any tax. Council members said they likely will hold a hearing on a proposed fee as early as November.
While the money raised would have to be spent on street and transportation projects, the law allows the city to divert other revenue currently spent on streets.
Council members Bob Apple and Nancy McLaughlin voted against the proposal. Council members said they likely will dissolve the district if the county forms a regional district at a later date. Apple said any fee should go on a ballot.
The Spokane City Council just after midnight adopted a plan aimed at cutting carbon emissions and reducing the city's dependence on oil.
The 5-2 decision was the second time the council voted on a report finished last year by Mayor Mary Verner's 13-member Sustainability Task Force. Council members Nancy McLaughlin and Bob Apple voted against the plan.
When the council took its first action on the plan, in May 2009, there were only enough votes on the council to "accept" the report. Since then, two City Council members have been replaced.
"I'm honored to have another opportunity to adopt" the report," City Councilman Steve Corker late Monday night.
City officials say that new state rules require that the city have an "adopted" plan to reduce emissions to qualify for some state grants.
The report recommends several steps the city should take to cut its dependence on oil and reduce the city's negative effect on climate change. Ideas include promoting energy-efficient construction and transportation. It also sets a goal for the city to acquire 100 percent of its energy from renewable sources by 2030.
The results of the November election were on display for the first time Monday in the Spokane City Council chambers.
The three council members who won seats in November, Nancy McLaughlin, Jon Snyder and Amber Waldref, were sworn in by City Clerk Terri Pfister. The brief ceremony was mostly for show because each had already been sworn in for their new terms.
Waldref said while the council members may disagree on certain topics, there's full agreement on the top issue for 2010: preparing for the city's forecasted $10 million deficit in 2011.
The showing of Spokane City Councilwoman Nancy McLaughlin — the City Council's most conservative member — in a district that voted for President Obama has prompted speculation that she may run as a Republican for state Rep. Alex Wood's seat next year in Spokane's 3rd Legislative District. That's eastern Washington's most solidly Democratic district.
McLaughlin won all 43 precincts in her council district race in the August primary, a feat she repeated in Tuesday's general election.
Speaking from her campaign party Tuesday night, McLaughlin said she will not rule out a run for the Legislature, but added: "At this point, I have no intention of running next year."
She added that her husband isn't sold on the idea of her running for an office that would require a campaign every two years.
Karen Kearney, who is one of five challengers to incumbent City Councilwoman Nancy McLaughlin, has listed two new endorsements on her Web site.
One is from the Spokane Regional Labor Council. That's no surprise. Kearney has garnered strong union support throughout her campaign.
The other, however, is from former City Councilman Dean Lynch, who was appointed to his seat and lost an extremely close battle to retain it in 2001 to Dennis Hession.
Lynch generally supports candidates aligned with the Democratic Party. He also was the first openly gay person to serve in an elected office in Spokane city government. Kearney, who has been active in the county GOP, opposes gay marriage and also opposes providing benefits to unmarried partners of employees.

I discover that there are many websites dedicated to curing insomnia. A few tips that stand out:
1. sleeping pills
2. stop worrying or distance yourself from stressful subjects
3. don't eat or drink anything right before bed
For the veteran insomniac, these tips are probably well ingrained. But as a fledgling sleep-deprived person, they are news to me. And while these suggestions are indeed handy, they are not much help, considering: I don't have sleeping pills at this moment, I'm not particularly stressed out about anything and it has been more than six hours since I've eaten anything.

How to Shop for a Work Bag
Take these 10 tips with you when you buy your next pocketbook
By Bobby Schuessler
8. Look for a zipper.
Every bag should have a top zipper. Besides the security it ensures, Verdi says it tells people that you care about organization and you like things to run smoothly—good traits in a work colleague. Since there are gaps between snaps, a zipper really is the best way to guarantee your belongings don't spill out during your commute. But do check that you can open and close the zipper with ease.

I'm a graphic design student who specialises very little in designing cereal boxes but very much so in drawing cute cartoon animals and procrastinating to the max. I can come across as something of a ranting tyrant but I'm easily comparable to a spider: I'm just as scared as you as you are of me. In short, I'm quite shy but always eager to have a chat and make friends. Or acquaintances. Or you could be the type of person who occasionally visits my page and I may nod gratefully from a respectable distance. Not that you'll see the nod but you get the idea.
Thanks for visiting and I hope you enjoy looking around.

Acclaimed Italian architect Renzo Piano is to literally brighten up the lives of Londoner's on their way to Covent Garden from Oxford Street.
Aiming to bring a sense of "joyous vibrancy" to the area by Centre Point, he has proposed cladding 20 different facets of Central Saint Giles, a mixed-use development by Legal & General Property and Mitsubishi Estate Company, with red, orange, green and yellow glazed ceramic cladding.
As the cladding is installed a striking new landmark will emerge defined by dramatic facades of primary colours which at first glance appear a bold contrast to this too long neglected corner of central London.
But Piano says it is much more rewarding to look deeper: "The colour idea came from observing the sudden surprise given by brilliant colours in that part of the city. Cities should not be boring or repetitive. One of the reasons cities are so beautiful and a great idea, is that they are full of surprises, the idea of colour represents a joyful surprise."
Simon Wilkes L&G project director adds that metaphorically the area is also rich in colour - boasting a specialist shopping offering, colourful history and strong sense of community: "By creating a new heart we hope people will rediscover the St Giles area which in turn will be a catalyst for further enhancements of this corner of central London.
"We wanted to refocus people's attention by creating a stimulating new work environment, a fantastically located area to live and a brand new piazza for central London which will be served by a unique array of dining experiences."
Central Saint Giles will be Renzo Piano's first completed building in London and contains 400,000 sq ft of the highest specification offices with breathtaking views, 109 private and affordable apartments and 26,300 sq ft of shopping and café and restaurant space. The architect is also working on the Shard of Glass at London Bridge.

Great Storage Solution!!!
By Cat
from toronto,ontario
I was hesitant in buying this as I know you can purchase similar ones elsewhere. I bought it anyway, and when it arrived, it was a lot larger than any other ones I had seen. It is also much more of a durable fabric than the nylon ones in stores. I filled it up with winter boots for storage. It actually fit about 30 pairs!!! I love it !! and now I know where all my boots are!!! I bought a couple extra for patio cushions and pillow storage. Buy this. I promise it wont disappoint!!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The maiden voyage of the Gulf Stream Falcon is edging smoothly toward blissdom, thanks to the handpicked fashion models, musclemen, and extreme-water-sports enthusiasts aboard this 110-foot customized dive boat. For McManmon, however, the success of the outing has been compromised. An hour earlier, with whitecapped waves running four to six feet and guests getting queasy on the stern, he had to turn back from the edge of the continental shelf and cancel the scuba portion of today's junket.
Now, the ship at anchor, revelers jump into kayaks and wobble away from the swim platform to explore Flagler Memorial Island off Miami Beach. The windsurfing gear is at the ready. Squads of Jet Skiers stop by to visit, and so do friends on sailboats and fishing skiffs. McManmon has a lot of friends. The margaritas flow. By sundown the party will reach a Bacchanalian transcendence that survives, in some measure, the next day's hangovers and sunburns.
But today the shark cage remains on deck, chained to the cargo boom on the port side. The dozen spear guns stay sheathed. It will have been a party, but not an extreme party. Ron McManmon will have no particular stories to add to the treasure trove of tales that lurk behind his hazel eyes and hawk nose. None, for example, like the one about how a 38-year-old Buddhist beach boy wearing elephant-skin boots and a silver mermaid pendant got hold of a million-dollar commercial dive boat in the first place.
Expedition Log: 6/6/95
Everything is done on-board, so it's hard to keep entertained. Michael, Wayne, and I take one of our many walks down memory lane in good old Bimini. The local drug dealer still doesn't get it. We weren't drug addicts yesterday or the day before that, so what makes him think today we are! I suppose anyone that spends enough time in Bimini eventually turns into one.
Anyway, Michael had a good suggestion. We stop at the Compleat Angler for a beer. What an original thought. About halfway into our beer the excitement rose when someone caught a 510-pound blue-fin tuna at Weech's Marina. We ran over to look at the angler in all his glory. I have mixed emotions. Is it food or trophy? When all of the congratulations were over and pictures had been taken, the local Bahamian butcher stepped in to carve this amazing animal. I stepped up close to see how these experienced craftsmen would perform the surgery and could not believe these stupid, revolting assholes. They chopped and hacked several hundred pounds of meat from the tuna's body. Then when they had taken their fill, they threw the rest away. Dozens of people (sheep) standing by let them toss at least a hundred pounds of meat in the water. I voiced my opinion A strongly, went and got Bad Dog, and dragged this beautiful animal from the water while marina personnel were in protest. While I wanted to reason my position (argue), I followed Michael's lead and became deliberate in my purpose. So we just took the boat in and did what we were going to do without permission. Like Mike said, 'What are they going to do, stop us?' We tried to lift the remains onto the boat but it was too heavy, so we towed it back to the Rio Grande. I then learned how to operate the crane and hoisted the remains up on the dock. Everyone soon collected on the dock, where we cut the rest up and served it to the Bahamian locals.
By late April last year, Ron McManmon was as close to blues and boredom as he'd ever been. In the preceding three decades he'd hunted everything from men to mangrove snapper, lived in eight countries, and spent more time on and under the ocean than most people spend in bed.
But driving north toward Fort Lauderdale, he knew he'd found the next entry in his resume. And right from the start, walking down the dock toward the Rio Grande, he smelled trouble. A friend had told him Caribbean Exploration Limited (CEL), a Canadian salvage firm, had sunk $1.6 million into its latest treasure hunt. Yet the Rio Grande, an 80-foot converted crew boat once used to ferry roughnecks to oil rigs, was a near wreck. Nothing worked, from the icemaker to the generators to the steering system.
Outward bound for an isolated and still-undisclosed site in the Bahamas, the ship had one unreliable radio for communication. The dive gear and excavation equipment were a joke. The ten-man crew was as green as a pitcher of beer on St. Paddy's Day. McManmon had never been treasure hunting, but he felt comfortable with his new job description: diver, deckhand, all-around handyman.

Newcastle to rename bar named in Alan Shearer's honour
The bar dedicated to Alan Shearer at Newcastle's St James' Park is to be refurbished and renamed.
Signs at Shearer's Bar were removed on Thursday, hours after the Magpies' record goalscorer used his column in a national newspaper to criticise the club over the appointment of Joe Kinnear as director of football and the resulting fall-out.
However, the development was a coincidence and the start of a major redevelopment programme which will see the bar reopen next month as 'Nine'.
Finance director John Irving said: "Shearer's Bar was immensely popular when it was first launched in 2004, but its popularity has dwindled over the years as this part of Newcastle has developed and new bars have opened around it.
"In transforming the site and opening the bar up to a wider range of visitors, it was important that a new name remained in keeping with the club's history and heritage, and Nine is certainly faithful to that.
"We have liaised directly with Alan to keep him abreast of the plans, which he has been appreciative of, and we're looking forward to launching Nine next month."
Shearer's Bar opened in December 2004 during Freddy Shepherd's reign as chairman.
The striker scored 206 goals during a 10-year spell with his home-town club, eclipsing Jackie Milburn's record in the process.
He later had a brief spell as manager under current owner Mike Ashley in 2009, but could not prevent Newcastle from slipping out of the Barclays Premier League.
Shearer wrote in today's Sun, in response to the controversy over Kinnear's appointment: "Where do we start?
"What I do know is that right now people are laughing at the football club I support. And that sickens me.
"I promised myself years ago never to be surprised by what happens in football - particularly when it comes to Newcastle. But this situation really is stretching it a bit.
"While other clubs are all plotting and planning for next season, Newcastle have a manager who has just been totally undermined.
"Alan Pardew has said he will carry on but I am sure it will be a difficult situation."
Kinnear has wasted little time in making his presence felt with a series of free-ranging interviews which have hardly enhanced his reputation as he struggled to pronounce the names of some of his players as well as managing director Derek Llambias - who has since resigned.
And Shearer added: "What are the players to think when he can't even get their names right? It's all a PR disaster."

The Mizzou baseball team fell, 6-3, on Wednesday afternoon (Feb. 26) at the USA Baseball National Training Complex. Josh Lester tallied his second multi-hit game of the year with a pair of knocks and Shane Segovia and Kendall Keeton extended their hitting streaks to six and five games, respectively, with a pair of eighth-inning, two-out hits. But other than that, Mizzou's offense was quiet until a three-run ninth. The Tigers fall to 3-5 while Campbell, the defending Big South Champion, moves to 7-2. The Tigers used 10 pitchers in the game as senior Eric Anderson was charged with the loss.

National championship hopes are floating in Saturday's 103rd edition of the Red River Rivalry, the annual Oklahoma-Texas shoot-out at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas (airing on ABC Saturday, Oct. 11, at noon/ET). In both national polls the Sooners (5-0) are No. 1 and the Longhorns (5-0) are No. 5. Perhaps more important than the game's BCS implications, pride is on the line. Both teams "really do feel like their season is ruined if they don't win this game," says ESPN's Ed Cunningham. The Sooners have so many offensive weapons, including quarterback Sam Bradford and running backs Chris Brown and DeMarco Murray, that "I'm not sure anybody's ever going to stop them this season," Cunningham says. "But Texas will have the best chance of figuring out a way of slowing them down some." Adding to the tension, Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops has stocked his roster with players from below the state line. "There's the inside joke that Oklahoma is really the University of Texas at Norman because they've gotten so many kids out of Texas," Cunningham says, "so I think there's a little bit of anger." As if any more motivation were needed. —Karen Rosen
