HEALTHDog fighting used to be a sport meant to entertain police officers and firefighters, and was advertised in police gazettes. Now that numerous laws have been passed that make dog fighting illegal, the sport has simply gone underground.
DOG HEALTH Many new puppies are adopted throughout the year, especially around Holiday time. One responsibility most first time dog owners forget to take into account is the amount of veterinary care that is necessary in keeping your puppy happy and healthy! Learn the basics of finding a vet and getting puppy vaccinated.
DOG HEALTHThere are many benefits to spaying and neutering, but there are also more than a few risks. We want to give you often overlooked information you need to make a full and informed choice.
ADOPTION Are you intimidated by the prospect of "rescuing" a dog from a shelter? One reason that you may be wary of adopting a dog from a shelter is not knowing how to choose. Adopting a dog from a shelter can be a rewarding process, if you're prepared to do a reasonable amount of research.
DOG HEALTH As we get older, most of us probably have at least one prescription medication we take regularly, and for many, some form of pain reliever is a daily necessity. We might think that these same medications can help out our dogs as they get older, but their systems react to these chemical compounds in ways much different than ours.
DOG HEALTH Bringing home a new puppy is so exciting, but it doesn't take all that long for your exuberant puppy to grow into a senior dog who may have special needs. Here are the doggies.com top ten tips for taking care of your companion who has been with you through so much.
DOG FUN Whether you like to go out on your pontoon, a fishing boat, or even a canoe, life on a boat can be even better if you bring your dog along. Here's the doggies.com guide to dogs on boats. (A little different than Snakes on a Plane.)
DOG FUN There 's no doubt about it, taking your dog to the dog park involves a certain amount of good manners. Here's our guide to "keeping your nose clean" while your dog hangs out with his or her friends.

Identify your old mystery family photos with these guides by Maureen A. Taylor:
Clues to Date the Image
So when was it taken?
I'll rule out the early 1860s.The daughter wears a lovely dress with plenty of details that suggest it's worn for a special occasion. It's a light colored dress in an indeterminate color. Wedding dresses ranged from white to darker colors. Most brides in this period wore a very nice dress, not necessary white.
Her hat dates from the mid-late 1860s, when narrow-brimmed hats with trim became commonplace.
Until I see the back, I'll place this image in the circa 1868 time frame. Dating clothing is not always an exact science. Sometimes people wore older clothing styles, comfortable with what they've been wearing, rather than newer styles.
Jim researched the New York Gallery of San Francisco that took this image and found it was in business from 1869 to 1887.
Catherine M. Darcy could be this girl. She was born in 1863. Typical age for First Communion was between ten and fourteen years of age. A explanation of the history of this church rite can be found on the Catholic News Agency website.
There is another possible photo of Catherine in the album.
This is the symbol for the Independent Order of Odd Fellows identifying this man as a member of a fraternal organization. Several years ago, I wrote an article about another Odd Fellows image. The group's slogan, "Friendship, Love, Truth" is represented in the three rings.

• Stage review: Bull at Maria, Young Vic – corporate Darwinism at its most brutal
"You thought that bad people like me would fall at the wayside and good people like you would triumph. Oops," says guiltless Isobel.
• Book review: The Compatibility Gene – how the body spots friend and foe
"This book has something of a misleading title. It suggests something pre-ordained about our favoured sexual partners but the titular gene is related to tissues not human so hold on to your eHarmony account a little longer."
• Travel: Guernsey – how time has healed the wounds, 70 years on
"Less than a fortnight later the Government declared the Channel Islands were of no strategic importance and would not be defended. Thus 'without a shot being fired' and, to the chagrin of Churchill, British soil was surrendered to the Germans."
• Film review: Birdman – a delirious comedy of mid-life crisis
"In the most affecting (and accomplished) sequences, the delusionary Thomson breaks free from his mid-life crisis and takes to the skies, reminding himself of his youthful cloud-free certainties, now only available at the bottom of a bourbon bottle."

U.S. Speedskating Launches Disciplinary Panel For Skate Tampering Incident
U.S. Speedskating apologized today, after one of its athletes admitted that he tampered with the skates of a competitor.
"I speak for everyone at U.S. Speedskating — our staff, athletes and Board of Directors — when I say that we are shocked and disappointed by Simon [Cho's] actions," Tamara Castellano, marketing director of U.S. Speedskating, said in a prepared statement. "We would like to apologize to Speedskate Canada and Olivier Jean, as well as all of the Canadian athletes who competed in Warsaw, for the actions of our athlete."
In an interview with NPR's Howard Berkes, Cho alleged that Jae Su Chun, the head coach of U.S. Speedskating's short track team, repeatedly asked him to sabotage the skates of a competitor.
Cho, a bronze medalist, admitted that he eventually tampered with the skates of Canadian athlete Olivier Jean at the 2011 Short Track World Team Championships in Warsaw, Poland.
Castellano said Cho's actions were "an egregious breach of our code of conduct."
She said U.S. Speedskating is convening a disciplinary panel that will meet "immediately to determine the appropriate course of action."
"Because this incident occurred at an international, ISU-sanctioned event, we will also be consulting with the ISU and the U.S. Olympic Committee," Castellano said.

In November 2010 PADI announced the new PADI Divemaster course, however the new materials were not available in Indonesia until July 2011. Since then, Two Fish Divers have taught the new course to about 10 students in Bunaken & Lembeh, and we think that the new DM course is a great improvement.
What Has Changed
In summary, PADI have toughened the prerequisites, increased in-water training by 50%, and completely overhauled the dive theory part of the Divemaster Theory.
Slightly Tougher Prerequisites
Candidates must now have 40 logged dives to start the DM course (used to be 20). They will therefore get more out of their course by being more experienced divers before the course begins.
Additionally, the Deep Diver and Search & Recovery Diver specialty courses are highly recommended. Candidates with these specialty ratings can drop these two Practical Application Skills (see below), however we prefer to cover these anyway to make sure that candidates have up-to-date training.
Increased In-water Training
One of the biggest changes come in the water where PADI has increased the amount of in-water training by 50% including:
These workshops and assessments give the candidates the training and experience they need in order to carry out their functions after certification.
Overhaul of Dive Theory
Overall, the Divemaster Theory emphasizes the supervisory and leadership aspects of being a Divemaster. It has not changed much under the new DM course except that there is now a greater focus on awareness of the environment.
However, the dive theory part of the Divemaster Theory (physics, physiology, etc) has undergone an overhaul.
Under the old DM course, the most intense part of the course was the dive theory as candidates did the same dive theory as an instructor. Under the new DM course, the dive theory is now an "intermediate step" between whats required for the Rescue Diver and that required for an instructor. The dive theory is now a review of the theory from the prerequisite courses (OW, AOW and Rescue), and this is what it should be!
What about the exams? Now there are 2 exams, and they are written in less-technical language to "better assess comprehension of all the knowledge development topics".
Divemaster Course Online
This was introduced at the same time as the new DM course. It is a great alternative to using the PADI Divemaster manual and DVD. It means that you can do all your DM Theory before you get to us in Bunaken or Lembeh, and more time can be spent on the skill development and practical applications.
Note that the DM exam is not included in the online program as its designed to be administered by us when you are here.
Revised PADI Divemaster Materials
The biggest change has been with the PADI Divemaster Manual itself, which increased from 200 to 300 pages. PADI says it "includes new course information and functions as an additional study tool for the DM exam. Each chapter now includes a case study based on real scenarios that illustrate sound judgement and other leadership skills."
The Divemaster DVD also gets an upgrade, with new footage, plus video of the 20 scuba skills to "demonstration quality".
Other revised material include the Divemaster slates that were revised to match the course content.
More Fun
We think that the new format of the PADI Divemaster Course is alot more fun since candidates spend alot more time on the dive boats. If you are interested, there are a number of options to choose from, have a look at the the PADI Divemaster options with Two Fish Divers for more information.
Hope to see you in Bunaken or Lembeh!
As we all of head off to amazing scuba diving adventures, we are burdened with the pesky airlines' baggage fees; thinking, are we even going to get our gear to the dive site or should we just rent gear that could be old, ugly, and questionable condition? It seems that there has to be a trade off, paying the cost of the airline fees versus paying to rent gear. Now there is a solution to this with Aqua Lung's Travel Gear.
Travel Gear from Aqualung – Aqualung have developed a range of light-weight dive gear where everything, including the fins, has been specifically designed to provide you with max comfort while easily fitting in a carry-on bag. Pack light, travel more, "Why rent when you can travel light?" Just check out these weights!
On Aqualungs website they even have a handy weight calculator so you can calculate the weight yourself!
The Travel Bag
The Aqualung Travel Bag is made from heavy-duty PVC-free 600D nylon and total weight is only 7.26lbs/3.29kg for lightweight travel. It meets most major airline size requirements for carry-on baggage, and was designed to accommodate the new Aqua Lung HotShot dive fins.
Zuma BCD
The Zuma BCD is an ultra-light, weight-integrated, back inflation BCD that has everything you need, yet lacks weight and bulk. Once you lift it, you'll feel for yourself that a size ML/LG weighs less than 2 kg (4.4 lbs), with the airway and weight pockets included!
Whats even more amazing is that it packs into a really small space!
Mikron Regulator
Sport Diver Magazine's Editor's Pick, 2008 Gear Guide. Aqua Lung considers the Mikron Regulator to be the smallest and lightest weight regulator on the market today, weighing in at just 26 oz. (din) and 31 oz. (yoke). Even more amazing is that performance is not sacrificed by the extreme compactness of the regulator, and its balanced first and second stages produce exceptional breathing performance.
AirSource 3 Octopus
Sport Diver Magazine's Editor's Pick, 2008 Gear Guide. The Airsource 3 combines a high-performance second stage with a power inflator. By eliminating the need for a traditional octopus, the diver can streamline his entire system. In addition, unlike a traditional octopus that can drag in the sand or damage coral, you'll take comfort knowing that the Airsource 3 is right in front of you ready to deliver life saving air in a moment's notice.
Hotshot Fins
The amazing Hotshot Fin has been engineered with the traveling diver in mind. It offers unsurpassed comfort, compactness for carry-on travel and power for a fully outfitted scuba diver. The foot pocket is designed to be worn with bare feet, and neoprene socks or thin-soled boots may be used for thermal protection. Its also very compact and light – it measures only 20.9in/53cm and so fits in carry-on luggage, and only weighs only 3.28 lbs / 1.5 kg.
Sport Diver Magazine's Editor's Pick, 2008 Gear Guide. The Micromask is a revolution in mask design. Never before have lenses been so close to the eyes. This not only results in an amazingly wide peripheral view but an extremely low internal volume, making it very easy to clear.
If you like the idea of having a snorkel that rolls-up then try the Nautilus Snorkel. It can be carried in a BC pocket or hung from a D-ring, and can be deployed in a snap, making it the most travel-friendly snorkel ever!
If you want a more traditional snorkel, the Impulse3 Snorkel consistently has been the best selling snorkel in the world. Available in a FLEX version that allows the patented COMFO-BITE mouthpiece to drop out of the way while switching from snorkel to SCUBA.
D4i Computer
Adventure should take you anywhere, any way you want to get there and the Suunto D4i dive computer is a great choice. The new DM4 software allows easy synching with Movescount.com, where you can share your dive profiles, images, and experiences online. This makes the D4i a great choice for those who love socializing as much as diving. There is also the option of a wireless readout of your tank pressure and air time so you do not need those gauges anymore – another weightsaving idea!
Coelecanth is a Devonian lobed fin fish that thrived in the oceans 450-500 million years ago. Its importance lies in the fact that it is considered the "missing link" between fish and animals, ie they were the ones that crawled from the waters to create life on land. It is also an inhabitant of Bunaken Marine Park, and probably one of the most unusual inhabitants at that!

It is common to see dolphins in Bunaken National Park. There are 28 different types of whales and dolphins that have been seen in the park, however they are shy animals and most of the times we see them in the surface rather than diving.
When we do see them then often it is in very large schools of 50-100+ animals, as in the photo on the right.
Here a little bit more information about these amazing animals!

The current craze in diving is rebreather diving!! With a rebreather, all the air you breath out is captured in the unit on your back and the carbon dioxide is removed, and it is returned to you for breathing again. This means that you do not need as much air, therefore the tanks are only 3liters!
Its not new technology. The "thing" that removes the carbon dioxide is called the scrubber, its just a chemical that reacts with the carbon dioxide and therefore removes it, and was first used in submarines in 1885!
Rebreather diving also offers a different type of diving. During the dives you have to monitor the oxygen content of your air, adding more oxygen to your air if the content gets too low. This is the "technical" aspect with rebreathers, but many rebreathers do this automatically so you just need to make sure that the rebreather unit is doing this properly.
Why do it? Its not about deep diving but about getting up close to the underwater life. When you go diving, the bubbles that you produce scare the fish away, if you produce no bubbles then the fish life will allow you to get closer to them. We can personally verify this with the black tip reef sharks on Rons Point where we had an amazing dive surrouned by 5-10 sharks for ages!
How to get started? As part of becoming a PADI TEC center, we purchased some rebreathers and can offer some try-dives. We will also soon be offering the new PADI rebreather courses aimed at recreational divers:
After this, the next steps are the PADI TEC courses aimed at going on deeper/decompression dives, but thats the subject of another blog!
For more info, keep an eye out on our blog and our website tec diving page.

Walmart's New GreeterCharley, a new retiree-greeter at Wal-Mart, just couldn't seem to get to work on time. Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late. But he was a good worker, really tidy, clean-shaven, sharp-minded and a real credit to the company and obviously demonstrating their "Older Person Friendly" policies. One day the boss called him into the office for a talk. "Charley, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you do a bang-up job when you finally get here; but your being late so often is quite bothersome." "Yes, I know boss, and I am sorry and am working on it." "Well good, you are a team player. That's what I like to hear." "Yes sir, I understand your concern and I will try harder." Seeming puzzled, the manager went on to comment, "I know you're retired from the Armed Forces. What did they say to you there if you showed up in the morning late so often?" The old man looked down at the floor, then smiled. He chuckled quietly, then said with a grin, "They usually saluted and said, Good morning, Admiral, can I get your coffee, sir? Editor's note: This story is not verified. It was sent in by my brother Dennis Caruso (PH2 USS Philippine Sea 1955-59) who is also somewhat unverified. I would love to believe this is true but I remain skeptical, even though there is no information at Snopes to refute it. |
Fleet Broadcast for 05 Oct 14It had been suggested that we look into putting artifacts and memorabilia from the cruiser Oklahoma City on display aboard its sister ship, USS Little Rock, in Buffalo, NY. This was presented to the folks in Buffalo and we were offered a sizable compartment for this purpose. In June, Paul Dillon and John Baker went to Buffalo to check things out found they had for us a compartment on the port side of the 03 level, just aft of the bridge. It originally was the Flag Plans office and measures 18' by 13'-6". They will prepare the compartment by painting it, install lighting and our expenses will be putting in new flooring and the cost of display cases. There will be no monthly "rent" or other fees. It should be noted that the minimum cost estimates for a standalone 8 foot floor display case is $1000. The minimum cost estimate for a 4 foot wall display is $750 which plays out to upwards of $9000. Due to the limited widths of passageways and doors, these will need to be built in the space provided. One thing to note is once artifacts and memorabilia are placed on display they become property of the Buffalo & Erie County Naval and Servicemen's Park and will not be returned. Donors of items will sign off on an affidavit agreeing to that stipulation. This was presented at our business meeting in Providence last month and the membership present approved to proceed with this project. Fund raising efforts will begin with the next Corral and a 3-member committee will be formed to solicit artifacts and memorabilia. Procedures to donate items will also be in the next Corral.
If anyone should have any questions about this, please get in touch with Association President John Baker at 620-399-3999 or send an email. |

"I ordered these invitations for a baby shower I am hosting for my Niece. Since we do not yet know if she will be having a boy or a girl, I was worried the selection would be limited. Not only did I find a nice assortment of "gender neutral" designs, I absolutely adored the card that was ultimately selected. I ordered the invitation in Pearlized paper with the scalloped edges and it is fantastic. I highly recommend this design/paper selection."
"When I ordered this I thought it was gonna come in a more vibrant color,I knew it was not gonna have the glitter finished,but the blue looks actually gray. Other than that it's what I wanted."
"I ordered these adorable elephant shower cards for my sister's shower and they arrived quickly and looked even better in person! My sister absolutely loved them!!"
"I am extremely happy with my purchase. What I like best about this particular design was that I could write on the front and the back of the card. This allowed me to put all the extra little details that didn't fit on the front - and there wasn't an extra cost to do this. Really easy to view throughout too and adjust font design and size accordingly."
"Adorable shower invite. I got compliments on it from the shower honoree and guests. Highly recommend. Only downside was that we weren't able to fit all the text we wanted - i.e. for the address, we had to leave off the state abbreviation. Overall, very happy with it."

Disinfectants may promote growth of superbugs
By Jimmy Downs
It is a known fact that overuse of antibiotics can increase bacterial resistance. But a new study now shows that even use of disinfectants could boost odds for bacteria to become superbugs that are resistant to otherwise potent antibiotics.
The study published in the January 2010 issue of Microbiology shows that laboratory cultures of pseudomonas aeruginosa exposed to increasing amounts of a disinfectant could adapt to survive not only the disinfectant but also commonly used antibiotics called ciprofloxacin.
Dr. Gerard Fleming and colleagues from the National University of Ireland in Galway found bacteria exposed to disinfectants became superbugs that were more capable of pumping out antimicrobial agents including disinfectants and antibiotics from their cells.
Additionally, the researchers found the bacteria exposed to disinfectants also mutated to allow them to be resistant to antibiotics, particularly ciprofloxacin and others in the same category.
P. aeruginosa is a bacterium that causes infections in people, particularly in those with their immunity compromised and those with diseases such as cystic fibrosis and diabetes, according to a press release by the Society for General Microbiology. It is responsible for many cases of hospital-acquired infections.
The researchers suggest that hospitals need to consider the "side effects" of using disinfectants in medical facilities, particularly in the era when superbugs are found ubiquitously.

Have found that Noel Poffinbarger was married to Ethel Shawver, b. June 6, 1889 Clark Co., IL (parents: John William Shawver & Eliza Jane Updegraff). Noel Poffinbarger is buried in Kettering, Ridgelawn Cemetery, Clark Co., IL. Ethel SHAWVER Poffinbarger died in Mattoon, Cole Co., IL & is buried next to Noel in Clark Co., IL. In 1906, this family was living in Martinsville, Clark Co.; in 1915, they are living in Casey, Clark Co. This came from Ethel Shawver's great nephew. Have also noticed that Joshua Poffinbarger married Mary (Polly) Glatfelter on July 6, 1854 Marshall, Clark Co., IL. Could Joshua be connected to Noel (son) & John (father)(born 1839) Poffinbarger?

Ordering for a Team? Let our Team Division Help!
Item has a Minimum Qty
Look forward to hours of training or racing with the vibrant Splatter Splash Super Pro One Piece.
I like the colors, and the fit is true to what it has always been. I especially like the leg openings on the suit. The wide straps and the back design are perfect. Very comfortable and I know it will last a long time! Thank you!
Love the wide straps! Wish more suits had them. Great bright color. Speedo never disappoints.
The Speedo Super ProBack style is the only suit I buy. As a serious swimmer and swim instructor, the fit can't be beat and I wish your site would offer more of them!
I use the suit for swim workouts 3x a week and it feels great in the water. Very supportive and the sizing is spot on.
Nice suit, fits well and looks good
I bought this suit for my granddaughter who takes Diving Lessons and Swims. It fits her perfectly and she never has to tug at it to adjust it at all. And it looks fantastic, too!
I'm pretty sure I ordered from the Women's sections size 6/24. I realized that it was a youth size when I couldn't fit the suit over my calves.
im 5"7 and 120lbs. its lycra so it does stretch out, so got a 34, and if fits small when its dry, but good when it gets wet.
My daughter loves this suit! Our team ordered it for our girls on the swim team in the Fall of 2013. This year they chose a different style, but allowed us to choose any suit in the team colors. We jumped at the chance to use this suit again. It fits perfectly as a competition swim suit. My daughter 10, but tall: 5'2 and 100 pounds. She wears a size 26 this year and loves the way it fits. It does fade, but it does not lose its shape. Even after a winter and a summer season, the size 24 has retained its shape. Our only problem is that my daughter has grown. The 26 is perfect and she is thrilled to have her favorite suit for meets again this year!
I swim 5 days a week for 3 hrs a day. The first few weeks I loved this suit, it fits perfect and looks awesome. However I have had it for a month and it is super stretched out and the back is about to rip. This suit is not worth $70

I'll take 'global warming alarmists who cashed out to big oil' for $500, Alex

Al Gore was given an entire category on Jeopardy! earlier this week to help him hawk his latest book:
Former Vice President Gore dropped in on TV sets across the country Tuesday to offer his wisdom on The Future.
Gore read off clues on "Jeopardy!" in a category titled after his new book, The Future, which he is promoting nationwide.
Aside from climate, Gore's "Jeopardy!" appearance also touched on China's emergence as the world's top manufacturer, outsourcing, erosion of topsoil and thermodynamics.
Nothing screams credibility on environmental issues like a self-proclaimed clean energy crusader who just made upwards of $100 million by selling his cable network to a media outlet controlled by an oil emirate.

Congregations called to join in God's mission
"The congregation is the church engaged in the mission of God in its particular context" (G-1.0101).
Every now and then a congregation needs help in discerning just what that mission is. The presbytery's Congregational Development Task Force (CDTF) in consultation with The Missional Network is forming cohorts of congregations to learn what God is doing out ahead of in the neighborhoods of our congregations. Congregations will begin to look outside the doors of their churches to see where God is calling them to join-in God's work. Learning Cohorts, comprised of folks from several congregations, will share with each other what they have learned. That collective learning will propel more action and more learning and more faithful participation with God's active Spirit in the world.
For more details, click here.
It's GOD on line 1.
Will you take the CALL?
Saturday, January 31 9am - noon presbytery office 1323 Myrtle Avenue Cincinnati, Ohio 45206
If you or someone you know has been wondering if that nagging itch in the back of your mind is actually a call to ministry, have we go just the thing for you.
We want to share with you what it takes to be prepared to lead God's people as a teaching elder or as a ruling elder commissioned to pastoral service.
At this open-house style conversation sponsored by the Committee on Preparation for Ministry you'll have the opportunity to talk one-on-one with teaching elders and commissioned ruling elders.

Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) Certification
- Overview
- Benefits of Certification
- Why Work With NSF?
- Certification Process
NSF is accredited to certify to the Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) standards which address environmental and social responsibility, animal welfare, food safety and traceability for aquaculture facilities. BAP certification defines the most important elements of responsible aquaculture and provides quantitative guidelines by which to evaluate adherence to those practices.
The Global Aquaculture Alliance (GAA), a non-profit non-governmental organization founded in 1997, develops the BAP certification standards and encourages responsible aquaculture practices. GAA also works to improve production and marketing efficiencies, and to promote effective, coordinated regulatory and trade policies.
For additional information, see the BAP website or contact NSF Seafood.
Benefits of Certification
The BAP program outlines standards for each type of facility, from hatchery and feed mill to farm to processing plant. It currently certifies shrimp farms and hatcheries; salmon, tilapia, channel catfish and Pangasius farms; seafood processing plants and feed mills.
Certification to a GFSI recognized standard such as BAP increases brand protection and minimizes risk. Achieving NSF certification to a BAP standard provides independent certification that a product or process complies with specific international standards and enables a food supplier to give assurances that food has been produced, prepared and handled according to the most recognized standards.
It demonstrates a commitment to quality processes and continual improvement, and enables access to top retailers.
Why Work With NSF?
NSF International is the leading global certifier to GFSI benchmarked standards, with exceptional technical expertise, consistently calibrated auditors and capacity for a timely path to certification. Backed by nearly 70 years of food safety expertise and a current average of 35,000 GFSI certification audits performed annually, we enable companies around the globe to demonstrate compliance with the most recognized food safety standards in the world.
NSF companies are accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) and ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board (ANAB), and has a worldwide network of highly skilled and experienced auditors to help organizations of all sizes implement complex food safety solutions.
Certification Process
The BAP certification process follows five basic steps:
- Your facility/operation reviews standards, guidelines and the certification application form.
- You return the completed application form to BAP headquarters.
- Upon application approval, BAP assigns an accredited BAP certification body to your facility.
- The certification body inspects your facility/operation.
- Following successful inspection and any corrective active resolutions, BAP certification is granted.
To maintain BAP certification, an annual compliance verification inspection must be conducted.

Playing it by the book
'It's a very good building,' said Piers Gough about Bennetts Associates and Lomax Cassidy & Edward's Jubilee Library in Brighton during last year's Stirling Prize judging. 'I think the circulation is very well planned,' added fellow judge Joan Bakewell. 'It's a very elegant box,' chipped in Jack Pringle. 'But there still aren't enough books,' cry out the librarians, dismayed at their pitiful collection. That's the problem with library ...

Description: This critically acclaimed moral drama is taken from a book written in 1760 by Denis Diderot. Suzanne (Anna Karina) is an intelligent, freedom-loving woman who is forced into a convent against her will. The fact that she was sired by a man who is not her mother's husband -- and that a suitable dowry cannot be paid for her -- bring her to the church. Suzanne endures continual harassment from one Mother Superior (Micheline Presle). Transferred to a different convent, she becomes subject to lesbian leanings from another Mother Superior (Liselotte Pulver), who flees with a priest (Francisco Rabal) who says he too was forced into a life of religion. The controversial subject matter caused the feature to be banned for two years, despite assurances to director Jacques Rivette by censors. The subsequent ban helped the film (shown at the Cannes Film Festival in 1966) gain more recognition. Rivette's cynical references to Catholicism as the ultimate theater enraged the Catholic Film Office, the agency that spearheaded the opposition to the film.~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

This article is a trial balloon. They are seeing how well it would go over. (Judging fan reaction) Also; The Cashshop is obviously not for greed but in order to have a F2P system already in place in case they had to go F2P like AOC did. Having gone through it with AOC, a game that sold a lot of boxes, they understood this could happen and made sure to have contingency plans like any smart business. Since the game did not sell anywhere near what they hoped it would, this would be the next logical step. |
Originally posted by Opapanax well i have not seen one game surviving which had got lifetime sub .so if they donot accomodate you . than you should blame yourself because everyone else saw it coming . |
the thing is a gamer is more likely to pay 15$ in stuff to help his/her char advance then do that with a sub fee. Not to mention that you bring in more people having 500k people spending 5$ is more than 100k spending 15$ a month n subscriptions. Free to play games work because they bring in new players while subscriptions only take the people from other games.

I love these forums. All of you people typing out what "Funcom SHOULD have done" or "SHOULD BE doing." As if any of you are qualified or have any idea what you're talking about. Its this stuff that keeps me coming here to read this stuff. Thanks. |
Originally posted by CujoSWAoA Oh, come on, if forums were dedicated only to people who were foremost experts in a field, they would be very dry, desolate places. Also, just because somebody doesn't have a company doesn't mean they can't see choices that seem logical. I mean, owning a company doesn't mean you make all the right choices either. :) |

Most people in this world have their own opinion of what is Logical. |
Originally posted by CujoSWAoA Right, which is why we're on a forum, sharing our opinions. That's what forums are FOR. The funny thing is, some of us are actually right. It's your job to figure out who it is. :) You can't have a forum where only correct people share ,because so many people they ARE correct (Though some people ARE right, again.)). |
Originally posted by roo67 Well they charged for the box too so in reality it was b2p+p2p+ cash shop.....THe mad cash grab that Funcom displayed with this game was sickening...IT was blatantly obvious that Funcom was trying to get as much as they could as fast as they could with TSW.....I dont feel sorry for the lifetime buyers because they knew exactly what they were getting: a game that had little content that would be f2p within its first year of release. |
Seriously? Is anyone surprised with this? This is the standard EA business model these days, the exact thing happened with SWTOR - all went according to plan from day 1. Launch on sub with expensive box ---> half year later go sub/p2w ---> another half a year for pure p2w Frankly i'm shocked you people keep buying these games. |
Originally posted by Theocritus Hrmmm... mad cash grab? Let me go through part of my MMO history....
Hrmmm, you see - unlike you, I would not separate B2P & P2P...since my general experience has been having to buy the box (which usually came with the first 30 days) and the deciding whether to continue with a sub after that. That's not a cash grab - that's standard. What about the cash shop part though, right? Well, how does one argue that an entirely optional aspect of the game's not a cash grab? Er...maybe the optional part? So um...I don't see your attempt at a point in the least, the one where you're suggesting that Funcom was trying to grab as much money as possible up front. It sounds like the typical nonsense spread by folks that have a preference for...not paying for anything...misrepresenting the TSW payment model and what Funcom was doing as something other than what it is. edit: Hrmmm, yeah - I'll edit before getting thwapped. I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again? Explorer: 87%, Killer: 67%, Achiever: 27%, Socializer: 20% |
Originally posted by lotaparty You're right honestly, I would be at fault if I did have a lifetime but I don't. I was talking about those that do have lifetime subs. I myself am only a monthly subscriber to the game.. PM before you report at least or you could just block. |
Originally posted by MeGaTronPower I must respond something when you mention my best game of all times, swtor. :-) Actually TSW is not bad, I started to like it a lot, had 3 alts. But first 2 weeks I had crashes aprox. 4 times per hour, some lag, .... No problem at all with ANY other big game. And when discovered I will be limited at all times to 7 active buttons only, I already know this spells button masher. However after buying another hard disk and w7 64 my satisfaction went up by 10000%. No lag at all, no single crash in a week. Otherwise same hardware. But they can not seriously aspect spending 50€ and more for client and 7 times this ammount for windows and possibly new hd. Along with monthly sub. I'm however not sorry for my decision, now i can play much better all my main games (wow, swtor, rift, ... and now - I admit to my big surprise - gw2). But they advertise game works with xp then should stick with this. ok, decreasing i.e. graphics, ... but is unacceptable constant crashing to which only solution Funcom provides is upgrade windows to w7 and explictily 64 bit (otherwise I had 32bit) + more then 3gb RAM. Btw, I know, I know .... also some w7 64 bit users have problem with crashes and many 32bit does not report any problems .... but after a lot of research on forums for my problems conclusion was really a LOOOT of non 64 bit users had terrible problems. |
It's cheap journalist trick to quote as a title one sentence from article, just to draw attention, even if the implication from the title isn't logical regarding whole interview.
Especially when people sometimes don't bother or doesn't have enough english to understand it correctly and they assume that 'title says it all'. Well, it doesnt.
It's not like they didn't say it was set up to allow them to go F2P in the future ... BEFORE the game was even released ( Interview with Ragnar I believe ) So old news is no news |
Originally posted by eskela Yep - unfortunately though, so many folks do not read beyond the headline. I got into an argument with somebody recently about that - a headline, that is. It's been a few weeks since they spoke to me, lol. They were ranting and raving about the "headline" in the link of a story - after a bit of discussion, I asked them if they had even clicked that link. If they had, they would have seen the full headline (literally, the full headline at the top of the article) rather than the link headline. It's about drawing viewership, readership, and making money - taking things out of context while hiding behind the cop out that if the person had clicked on the story....meh, they know very well that folks are used to reading 140 or less these days and they've not read the actual story.

I've spent more time assessing the Carolina-New Orleans game than I have any game this season.
I don't like to do that. I don't look at the picks other people make until after I make mine. I don't look at trends. I look at numbers, but dismiss most of them.
The Saints are 6-0 at home this season and have won by an average of more than 17 points. Three of the teams they've beaten currently have winning records – Arizona, Dallas and San Francisco.
I believe in instinct. You feel it or you don't. The Panthers have won eight straight and I've picked them to win all eight. They were underdogs in only two of the games – at Minnesota and at San Francisco.
They're underdogs again Sunday. If I pick the Panthers, it's not because I think a victory by the visitors is a better story. I'm not going to sacrifice my record to placate anybody.
New Orleans is a tough place for a visitor to win. I've seen most of the games the Panthers have played in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Fans dress coolly and crazily, invoke secret voodoo stuff, and the players feed off the crowd and the crowd off the players.
But Saints did play Monday night. And their airplane broke and they didn't return until Tuesday. And they were beaten up a little by Seattle. And the Panthers are doing whatever is required to win. And they will get to quarterback Drew Brees. And rookie defensive tackle Star Lotulelei is having a fine season and he is going to have a fine, and difference making, game.
Carolina 27, NEW ORLEANS 24
Last Week: 12-4
Season: 126-66
There's one guy from USA Today who is a half-game ahead of me. He counted the Minnesota-Green Bay game as a tie. I took it as a loss. I hate ethics.
Upset of the Week: Picked Miami (plus 2) to upset the New York Jets. Miami won by 20.
Season: 9-4
Lock of the Week: Picked New England (minus 71/2) to cover against Houston. The Patriots won by a mere three.
Season: 7-5-1
This week's picks, with the home team in CAPS:
Seattle 24, SAN FRANCISCO 23: Even if DeAngelo Williams hadn't fumbled in the opener, Seattle would have beaten the Panthers. By the end of the game, Seattle's offense was tougher than Carolina's defense. Carolina couldn't stop the Seahawks. How compelling will it be if they play again?
PHILADELPHIA 31, Detroit 28: The Panthers snuck up on people and then they were discovered. The Eagles will soon join them.
Kansas City 20, WASHINGTON 13: The whispers in Washington have become a din: Bring back Spurrier or, you know, somebody else.
The rest:
GREEN BAY 19, Atlanta 17
BALTIMORE 24, Minnesota 17
TAMPA BAY 24, Buffalo 20
PITTSBURGH 23, Miami 19
CINCINNATI 24, Indianapolis 23
NEW ENGLAND 35, Cleveland 24
DENVER 34, Tennessee 20
SAN DIEGO 29, New York Giants 27
ARIZONA 23, St. Louis 21
Upset of the week
Oakland (plus 3) 9, N.Y. JETS 7: I tell my kids: Find something you want to do, work hard to get in position to do it, tip 25 percent unless the service is poor, and bet against the Jets.
Lock of the week
Dallas (plus 1) 27, CHICAGO 23: Tampa Bay (minus 21/2) also is tempting. But I don't trust Jay Cutler, not now, and I kind of like the Cowboys.

Rating: 5/5Great!This review is from: DELL i660-9621BK Desktop PC Intel Core i5 3330 (3.00GHz) 8GB DDR3 1TB HDD 24" Windows 8 Pros: I had 2 laptops prior to getting this desktop. It's so much better! Far superior in function, quality, and usage. I absolutely love the monitor. It's the talk among my friends. Some don't even have TV's this big! Before buying this combo I did some extensive research. Now that it's even cheaper you can pass up this deal! Cons: Windows 8 can be a little confusing, but it's growing on me. As previously mentioned, the monitor's base isn't as stable as others I've seen. However, it's metal where the base and monitor meet and I don't plan on "earthquake testing" it anytime soon. Other Thoughts: Great for a student, parent, or light use gamer. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Rating: 4/5I approveThis review is from: DELL i660-9621BK Desktop PC Intel Core i5 3330 (3.00GHz) 8GB DDR3 1TB HDD 24" Windows 8 Pros: This computer is nice, sleek and quiet. Cons: The monitor isn't bolted shut to the base, which makes me think that if I move my desk abruptly, or if I am not really careful, it could possible fall or snap. It has great picture quality, but again, it doesn't have the best foundation. Other Thoughts: I'm used to iMacs, so this is a new experience for me. The price on Newegg was definitely the right one.

As news of the shooting in Aurora, Colorado spread around the country, shock and horror mingled with anger at the fact that massacres of innocent people continue to happen in the United States. Ilsussidiario.net interviewed Lori Haas, mother of a girl wounded in the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre and Vice President of the VTV Family Outreach Foundation, created after the massacre to help the families of the victims, who describes the "sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach" that she felt when she heard the news of James Holmes' shooting spree, as well as her "immense amount of frustration and, frankly, anger" at the lack of an adequate response from the government. In terms of the work of her Foundation, geared towards helping the survivors, as well as advocating for changes to prevent further violence, she states that "many changes have been made, but it is a long process".As the mother of a survivor of the Virginia Tech massacre, what did you feel when you heard the news about the shooting in Colorado?It is a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach. You are brought back to the horror that your family went through. It is disgust at what happened and concern and compassion for those families who are going through such hell because that's what it is. As good as my situation turned out, it was just hell going through it, so a lot of thoughts and prayers for those families who are experiencing it. Do you feel disappointment with the system, seeing as these things keep happening?Yes, I feel an immense amount of frustration and sadness and, frankly, anger. We have the means to do a better job of managing the gun laws in this country so that we can make Americans safer, and we are not doing it. This is unacceptable to me. We have the talent, the know-how and the technology to do better background checks, pass assault weapon bans and keep the guns from dangerous people and we do not do it. This is what happens: people die.What does your Foundation do and how has it helped the friends and families of the victims of the massacre at Virginia Tech? VTV offers help to the survivors of the attacks and their families, including guidance and comfort, and also services to help them with education and work. The Foundation is also involved in ensuring that this does not happen again by helping to determine best practices for campus safety and trying to effect some changes based on the lessons we learned and that higher education community itself learned after the tragedy at Virginia Tech.What can the government do to prevent things like this from happening in the future?
