Nostalgia is a tricky word." Mike Diaz takes a long pause and surveys his surroundings. It's an unseasonably warm, cloudless day in late November, and we're seated on a park bench at the edge of a small pond in Coral Springs.
In this neighborhood, Diaz and former and now-once-again bandmate Eric Rizzo often met up to wile away the hours, dreaming of life beyond their suburban cul-de-sacs. Today, the guys' plaid long-sleeves and tight-fitting jeans are more suited to Chicago's north side than the land of manicured lawns and two-car garages. But both still call Coral Springs home. Directly behind us is the house where their band's first full-length was recently completed, and somewhere else in the suburban development is Diaz's own home, where early last year, he began recording under the guise of Millionyoung.
"I saw a documentary recently," Diaz continues, "and in it, they talked about the idea that we may be at a point where we're just rearranging old things in new ways because there are only so many unique drumbeats and the tonal range you can hear is only so wide."
If this statement is a half-hearted defense of the electronic music he makes as Millionyoung, Diaz is selling himself short. Nostalgia is indeed tricky because it's about more than merely referencing or recombining past works. For a piece of music to be effectively nostalgic, it must also implicitly evoke the present day. Only with hindsight can we understand the impossibility of recapturing what's come before.
Millionyoung is certainly not the first to be described as nostalgic, especially following the great "chillwave" awakening of 2009, but it's hard to imagine an artist more fully embracing the word's true meaning. Technically, he's 22 years old, but he might feel quite a bit younger. Like many from the so-called Boomerang Generation, Diaz now lives with his parents, and Millionyoung was conceived during down hours in his childhood bedroom.
At the time, Diaz was in school and working at Whole Foods. "[My first EPs] were recorded between the hours of 2 a.m. and 4 a.m.," he says. Given his hectic schedule, a band was out of the question. Millionyoung was the only practical way — frustrating as it was — for him to continue making music.
Those early EPs, Sunndreamm and Be So True, found Diaz toying with the artists he enjoyed in his youth — relying heavily on synth sounds but approached with an unmistakably lo-fi mindset. If New Order and Duran Duran had been paying any serious attention to the indie-rock golden era they lived through in the early to mid-'90s, their records might have sounded something like the Millionyoung EPs. That said, the EPs were as much a product of limitation as intention. "Those first songs, I recorded them, listened to them on headphones or twice in the car, and then posted them online," Diaz says. "I just didn't have the time."
But a lot of other people apparently did. What began as a personal creative outlet for Diaz quickly snowballed via the internet. Thanks to a wave of positive blog notices, Millionyoung secured a publicist and, ultimately, a record deal with indie Old Flame Records. But the accidental success, while far from unwelcome, presented its own set of challenges — chief among them, how to re-create the EP tracks in a live setting so he could tour. "When I started [this project], I had no expectation of playing live," admits Diaz. "The first few shows were just me and a laptop, and I was so busy working the keyboard that I forgot the crowd was there sometimes."
The difficulties in performing his material in real time convinced Diaz that he would need to evolve Millionyoung beyond the initial bedroom concept. He first turned to multi-instrumentalist Rizzo, a bandmate from an earlier project called Control Control, who officially joined the Millionyoung lineup last June. Rizzo also lives at home with his parents, having returned from a stint at the University of Central Florida. Drummer Will Croucher and guitarist/bassist David Steven were brought on toward the tail end of 2010.
According to Diaz, Millionyoung is well on its way to becoming a full-fledged band, with collaboration now the rule instead of the exception. The first full-length, Replicants, bears that out. "This album is a transition," explains Diaz. "Most of the writing of the individual parts is me, but the band structured and put the songs together."
Additional members also brought a welcome rigor to the songwriting process. "Sometimes I still have this habit of not thinking about playing live and just going with what I want [the song] to sound like. That's why it helps to have other people in the band."
Rizzo confirms that the multiperson approach has added a new dimension to the project: "We would have sessions [for the album] where we would just listen and take notes, not saying a word. Then, afterward, we would compare and see what we thought."
Replicants definitely comes across as a more mature artistic statement, but it's never stodgy, retaining the loose, breezy feel of Diaz's early works. The difference lies mostly in the execution, perhaps a product of the band's growing confidence as a live entity. But Replicants also reveals a broader musical vision, with Millionyoung no longer relying exclusively on retrofitted synth sounds but also incorporating touches of classic rock, dub, and Motown into the mix.

(Procyon lotor)
Raccoons are stocky mammals that have short front legs and long back legs. Raccoons have a striped tail with a black "mask" on their face. They have grayish-black fur and rounded ears. Males are known as boars and females are known as sows. Adult raccoons generally measure 20-30 inches long from their nose to the tip of their tail and weigh from 10-35 lbs.
Raccoons are abundant throughout Maryland and the rest of the United States.
Raccoons can be found in riparian areas along streams, lakes, marshes, swamps, farmland, and in suburban neighborhoods. They also can be found in urban areas where they can find adequate food water, and shelter.
Raccoons generally are solitary, though some related females will share similar territories. Raccoons typically den in hollow trees, ground burrows or brush piles but will use barns, attics or an abandoned buildings. Raccoons are most active from Spring until Fall in Maryland. However, sometimes they will emerge from their dens during the winter to feed. Raccoons are considered nocturnal but will forage during the day when conditions allow.
Raccoons are omnivores, meaning that they eat both plants and animals. Raccoons relish plums, gooseberries, blackberries, blueberries, dogwood berries, wild cherries, currants, wild grapes, apples and hawthorns. They also find acorns, hazelnuts and beechnuts appealing when in season. Raccoons also eat crayfish, fish, turtle eggs, snails and clams. Interestingly enough, raccoons have well developed sensory nerves on the bottom of their feet. Raccoons will feel their food items with their paws and will remove unwanted parts.
"Raccoons breed from the end of January through mid-March. After a gestation of 65 days, raccoons will give birth to 2-5 young known as kits. Kits will remain with the female until Fall. Males take no part in raising young.
Raccoons & People:
Raccoons can be nuisance wildlife. Raccoons are well adapted to urban and suburban areas and can easily get into houses, basements and attics. In addition, raccoons often raid trash cans and pet food left outside. Raccoons furthermore are responsible for 60% of the rabies cases in Maryland and can also transmit canine distemper and parvovirus to domestic dogs.
MD DNR has contracted with the USDA Wildlife Services to establish a public access nuisance animal hotline. Wildlife Service specialists are available to provide technical guidance or facilitate contacts with professional Nuisance Wildlife Cooperators. Individuals that are experiencing problems with raccoons or other wildlife species are encouraged to call (877) 463-6497.You can also find tips on how to avoid nuisance raccoons in your backyard on the Wild Acres website.
Did You Know?
The scientific name for the raccoon is Procyon lotor and in
Latin, lotor means "one who washes". Raccoons are known for their habit of
"washing" their food in water. Wildlife biologists believe that raccoons have
very sensitive fingers and as they forage for food in water (crayfish, tadpoles,
frogs, etc.), they actually feel what they are doing rather than see what they
are about to eat. Raccoons are known for their intelligence, and studies have
shown that raccoons can remember how to solve tasks for up to three years.

Well, you've decided that you want to improve your diet. That's great! However, with all the information out there, you may not know where to start. Don't worry, nutrition tips are here! The tips below can help you stay organized so that you can stay healthy. Scour the labels of prepackaged foods. Even when something is labeled "reduced-fat", it might be high in sugar, salt, or other unhealthy ingredients. Don't eat lots of processed foods if you want to lose weight.

This will ensure that you keep your risk level low for low blood pressure, as well as, some cancers. Different types of fruits and vegetables contain different nutrients and this is why it is best to spread your choices among them. Generally, darker leafy vegetables, such as spinach or any that are deep and bright in color, such as peppers, have a high nutritional content. Add a multivitamin to your diet to get the best nutrition.
You will want to focus on eating healthful,nutritious foods; however, taking a good multi-vitamin will ensure that you get sound, balanced nutrition. One way to let Institute for Integrative Nutrition help you lose weight is to prepare your meals ahead of time, like this report from Huffington Post.

Bosses get the IR they deserve: James Strong
PUBLISHED: 01 Jun 2012 11:17:00 | UPDATED: 01 Jun 2012 11:40:15PRINT EDITION: 01 Jun 2012Woolworths chairman James Strong, right, with CEO Grant O'Brien. Photo: Rob Homer
Patrick Durkin
The chairman of Woolworths, James Strong, has warned business leaders that they will get the industrial relations they deserve.
He also said boards had become "battle wary" of issuing profit downgrades because in the current market they would receive two hidings.
Speaking at the annual Stockbrokers Association conference in Melbourne, Mr Strong said while current business leaders were increasingly distracted by stakeholders, regulators and external issues and needed to again focus on leading management and staff and providing people a narrative.
"If you don't go out there on the front foot, and communicate with your staff and treat them with respect and involve them in the business, then you won't get much commitment from them," he said.
"I really admire the current government in New Zealand for the way in which they are talking to the electorate – and they have been talking to the electorate saying this is what has to be done, this is the direction we are going in, these are the first steps, we promise you that we will go this far now but later we may go further and I think that is a really important element in the role of chief executives.
"One of the things that worries me today is that chief executives have such a heavy workload externally to the corporation in terms of talking to analysts, the market and so on, in terms of dealing with regulators, that it puts a lot of pressure on the time and the ability of chief executives to truly influence people in an organisation," Mr Strong said.
On continuous disclosure he said that boards were "battle wary" of issuing a profit warning in the current environment "when you know if you go too early you will probably receive two hiding", he said.
He warned that the level of liability on directors was "frightening and unnecessary" and that the two strikes rule on executive pay was "not right and needed re-examination".

A must-read Krugman
Senator Bob Graham has made an even stronger charge: that Al Qaeda was "on the ropes" a year ago, but was able to recover because the administration diverted military and intelligence resources to Iraq. As former chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, he's in a position to know. And before you dismiss him as a partisan Democrat, bear in mind that when he began raising this alarm last fall his Republican colleagues supported him: "He's absolutely right to be concerned," said Senator Richard Shelby, who has seen the same information. What did I tell you?
Jayson Blair is ready for his closeup. Triumph of the Willing Suspension of Disbelief
A couple of weeks ago, I linked to a story in the New York Times which made it clear that the tale we'd been told about Jessica Lynch was not what you might technically refer to as the truth, or anything close to it--noting, among other things, that Iraqi doctors had actually tried to return her to the Americans two days prior: Sensing the end was near, the doctors devised a plan. They hired a driver to sneak Private Lynch in an ambulance to an American checkpoint. But when the driver drew near to the American troops, they stopped his car and turned it around before the driver had a chance to speak. The Guardian has now picked up on the story, and adds some interesting details about the made-for-tv rescue--such as the fact that American rescuers were firing blanks: "It was like a Hollywood film. They cried, 'Go, go, go', with guns and blanks and the sound of explosions. They made a show - an action movie like Sylvester Stallone or Jackie Chan, with jumping and shouting, breaking down doors." All the time with the camera rolling. The Americans took no chances, restraining doctors and a patient who was handcuffed to a bed frame. On a related note, the NY Times has a piece this morning on the Bushies' mastery of stagecraft: On Tuesday, at a speech promoting his economic plan in Indianapolis, White House aides went so far as to ask people in the crowd behind Mr. Bush to take off their ties, WISH-TV in Indianapolis reported, so they would look more like the ordinary folk the president said would benefit from his tax cut. And Steve Perry ties it all together here. And while you're there, don't miss Steve's thoughts on the oddly downplayed Riyadh bombings here: Consider: In the midst of a supposed war on terror, we experience the largest terrorist strike against US interests since 9/11, and to the American broadcast news apparatus that has marketed the war on terror since day one, it's just another story in the daily cycle. What gives? More indicators from Texas
As Bob has noted, as goes Texas, so goes the country. According to a partial transcript the customs bureau released late Thursday, the DPS officer told the bureau's tracking center, "We got a problem, and I hope you can help me out. We had a plane that was supposed to be going from Ardmore, Oklahoma, to Georgetown, Texas. It had state representatives in it, and we cannot find this plane." Remember when the Bush apologists were busy assuring us that Homeland Security would never, ever be abused? Story here (invasive registration required). --------------------

So at least we learned something
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) This NY Times story is titled (and I quote): Lessons From Iraq Include How To Scare North Korean Leader So I guess it was all worth it. Incidentally, here are a few other ways to scare Kim Jong Il: Embed Geraldo with the Korean Central News Agency, wearing a Speedo Just in case the Pentagon asks... CNN gets it right -- one war too late
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) Shocked today to see that CNN's coverage of the Riyadh bombings included the following graphic, regularly repeated: 15 of the 19 WTC hijackers were Saudi citizens Gee, that sure would have been handy a few months ago -- say, during any of the dozen times Bush strongly implied Saddam was behind 9-11. Steve Perry at Bush Wars is all over the bombing and its aftermath. It's a jobs bill, really...
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) The quote is second-hand in the Washington Post here, but the the math is right: As John Cassidy noted recently in the New Yorker, if you take the president's statements at face value, each new job created by his tax cut would cost the government $550,000 in lost revenue. That, Cassidy noted dryly, is "about 17 times the salary of the average American worker." Of course, the tax-cut-as-jobs idea is supported by folks who also think the Pentagon really needs the ability to kill the entire human race dozens of times over. So at least they're consistent. Creating jobs and fostering blah blah blah
Yet another paper gets played by dishonest Republicans: the Kalamazoo Gazette. Astroturf sighting
A reader reports the "creating jobs and fostering economic growth" letter ran in the Huntsville Times, in Huntsville Alabama. Update: another sighting, in the Middletown (CT) Press (don't have a link). Remember that war we won?
Back, what, it must have been weeks ago? Looting and anarchy continue unabated, no weapons of mass destruction have been found, Saddam's police force is being reinstated, the provisional U.S. government is already being replaced, and as it turns out, democracy is unlikely to flourish in the Middle East after all. Oh, and we're not any safer from the threat of terrorism than we were before, but most of our former allies hate us now. Apart from all that, how did you enjoy the play, Mrs. Lincoln? In other health news
Americans are not the sveltest people on the planet, to put it kindly. And as it turns out, all that excess weight is not only dangerous to the individual who carries it--it's dangerous to anyone who flies on a plane with them. You see, the airlines have apparently been in denial about the true average weight of the flying public--and it may have actually caused at least one plane crash. The actions were prompted by the January crash of a US Airways commuter plane in North Carolina that may have been within current weight limits but may still have been overloaded. 180 pounds. Uh huh. Have ya been through a midwestern airport lately?* *As a born and bred midwesterner, I am allowed to make snarky observations like this. Essay question
Read this story and this story. Then explain why a guaranteed health care system is not our highest national priority. For bonus points, discuss why politicians act as if health care is a personal matter which has no effect on society as a whole. --------------------

True: Democratic Leaders Leaving Texas Under Threat Of GOP Arrest
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) Wow. The Houston Chronicle reports that the Texas state legislature's Democrats are leaving the state and are currently under threat of arrest. Basically, the Dems feel so abused by a GOP attempt to ram a slanted redistricting scheme down their throats that they simply up and went, leaving the legislature without a quorum. The GOP responded by voting to instruct House sergeants to arrest the defiant Democrats. Greg over at The Talent Show is following this, and is hereby thanked for the heads-up. Texas has always been a nice preview of what the rest of us have coming under Bush -- a lack of respect for human life? check; sweetheart deals and the pillaging of the treasury? check; partisanship so extreme it leads to the complete breakdown of government? stay tuned... Armed Forces Radio, last bastion of liberal media, falls
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) I just learned what the Pentagon replaced my daily radio commentaries with. This is great. Backstory: for 5 years, I did daily radio commentaries that were syndicated to maybe 75 U.S. stations and, eventually, rebroadcast four times daily by Armed Forces Radio. I never hid my lefty leanings, and that's probably why the military ran them so often -- they were actually more interested in editorial balance than most civilian editors I've known. (Make of that what you will.) Which is to say I got a few minutes, Jim Hightower got a few minutes, and Rush Limbaugh got an hour. A few months after 9-11, I got canned by my biggest affiliate. My syndicator was getting killed by Clear Channel and couldn't turn a profit without our biggest station, so that was that. But I always wondered what was on in my old Armed Forces Radio spots... The answer: according to an email from a reader in Tokyo, I've been replaced (as has Jim Hightower) by "The Pentagon Report" and "The Security Files" -- brought to you by Raytheon, makers of the error-prone Patriot missile, one in five of which, in the recent conflict, apparently shot down the coalition's own planes. Which, you gather, anyone actually concerned with real security might have mentioned on the air. The game doesn't end just because we say so
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) This is very fresh news, from the AP wire, not yet on CNN or MSNBC, although Fox has had a brief update -- one to three car bombs have exploded near housing for western foreign nationals (read: Americans) in Riyadh, the Saudi capital. Damn. Damn. Damn. Wars don't end when we say they do. Al-Qaeda was founded in the wake of Gulf War I. Gulf War II isn't over yet, either, and the real incubators for what comes next are in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, not Iraq. Shame on anyone for pretending otherwise for political gain. As I write these words, on MSNBC, Pat Buchanan and his guest are using the Jayson Blair scandal to disparage affirmative action. Fox is arguing for the installation of more right-wing judges. CNN is still reviewing the day's stock prices. I guess we all have our priorities. But who's counting...?
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) The lowest estimate on the Iraq Body Count of civilian casualties has now exceeded the highest estimate of civilian casualties suffered on 9-11. Throw in cluster bomblets, water shortages, and continuing armed violence in the resulting anarchy -- all guaranteeing that the number will continue to climb for the forseeable future -- and for the revenge-minded among us, obviously, Mission Accomplished. At least the Iraqis can relax knowing that order is about to return -- since Hussein backers are regaining a role in government. Susan McDougal deserves as much
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) This just in: Kentucky Derby jockey Jose Santos has been cleared of any wrongdoing. The only thing in his hand was a whip. About which, two points: 1) As Media Whores Online chronicles nicely, MSNBC took the Miami Herald's bad idea and ran with it, giving Santos the full-on Richard Jewell treatment. As if we needed any further measure of the credibility of an outfit that considers Mike Savage more airworthy than Phil Donahue. 2) The stewards' live press conference vindicated Santos by showing clear video of his hands during the period in question. And since he was only whipping the horse, over and over and over and over, obviously he was innocent of wrongdoing. Nobody seems to have questioned whether the act of whipping an animal -- over and over and over and over -- as part of a mass amusement might not be such a swell thing itself. Astroturf update
The Anchorage Daily News gets played. (Scroll down, you'll recognize letter--it's the one about creating jobs and fostering economic growth...) Leave no racist, perjuring judicial nominee behind
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) Salon has just published Sean Wilentz' expose of Charles Pickering, Bush's nominee for the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals. (For those whose civics classes were taught by really boring people, Courts Of Appeals are one notch below the Supreme Court, so they're a big damn deal.) Apparently Pickering joined the GOP in 1964 specifically in opposition to the Civil Rights movement, and lied about this and other issues repeatedly in his testimony. Of course, GOP leaders now want to sue or change the rules so Democrats can no longer prevent Bush from packing the courts with -- for example -- lying racists. Bush is a war hero, and Klingon is spoken by numerous mental health patients
(Note: this entry posted by Bob Harris) Yesterday's L.A. Times repeated a wire story that a Portland-area mental health clinic needs a Klingon translator to speak to some of their patients. Any sane person would recognize the story as utter rubbish. Needless to say, it has already spread to CNN, other newspapers receiving the AP newswire, and blogs across the infosphere. I was gonna try to run this down today, but Seth Finkelstein over at kuro5hin.org has already tracked down how this new urban legend was born. Keep this in mind next time your common sense screams that the White House is lying again and the reporter you're watching is a credulous pod person. You are still human. You are sane. There are others of us still alive. --------------------

Phrases we really need to consign to oblivion
#1 in a series: "money quote." Apparently derived from the porn term "money shot," which means, well, figure it out. The mirth never ceases
With great amusement, I give you Andrew Sullivan's latest defense of Bill Bennett (via Atrios): KURTZ: You decided to kick him in the shins? The new Stephen Glass
What I find extraordinary about the Jayson Blair story (rundown-slash-mea culpa here, if you haven't been following this) is that you've got a reporter who's supposedly travelling all over the country, filing reports from all over--and no one seems to notice that he hasn't turned in any expense reports for airplane tickets or hotel rooms in half a year. And not only that--at the newspaper of record, it apparently doesn't occur to his editors to ask for such proof even when they are beginning to doubt his veracity: On April 29, toward the end of his remarkable run of deceit, Mr. Blair was summoned to the newsroom to answer accusations of plagiarism lodged by The San Antonio Express-News. The concerns centered on an article that he claimed to have written from Los Fresnos, Tex., about the anguish of a missing soldier's mother. Think about this. They've called the guy in, they want proof that he's actually been where he says he's been...but it doesn't occur to them to ask to see a plane ticket or a credit card receipt. He describes the house, and the editor says, oh, okay then, sorry to have doubted you. The whole story is bizarre. Blair didn't just make up anonymous sources, like Stephen Glass--he fabricated quotes from actual people who presumably read the stories and thought to themselves, hey, I never said that. And sometimes they complained about it, and sometimes they they just shrugged it off--anyone who's ever been interviewed for anything understands the fundamental unspoken truth of the media, which is to say, they always get it wrong somehow, and maybe this is exactly what Blair was counting on. Speaking of Stephen Glass...the mack daddy of fictionalized journalism has written a fictionalized memoir of his days as a prevaricating reporter, and if the postmodern self-referentiality of that doesn't make your head explode, this might: he apparently received an advance of $100,000 to make up a story about the time he spent making up stories. I know that nobody ever said life was going to be fair, but you know...in a just society, fuckups like Stephen Glass and Bill Bennett and Jayson Blair would retreat behind a wall of shame, never to be heard from again. But contrary to what you may have heard, there are in fact second acts in American life, not to mention third and fourth and fifth acts, ad nauseum. Within a year, I'm sure we can look forward to Bill Bennett's bestselling novel on his Struggle With Sin, and I won't be at all surprised if, not long after, the NY Times bestseller list features the autobiography of former NY Times reporter Jayson Blair...

• well developed and easily understood concept?
This is a powerful design solution that manages to leave a disturbing and lasting impression on the viewer. The level of communication is highly focussed and none of the design elements distracts from the core message. However, the exclusive focus on the homelessness situation in Los Angeles limits the scope and impact of this design solution when applied to a global audience. I suggest that the current image be cloned to include statistics from other parts of the world to make it more relevant to a global audience.
• level of social engagement?
• understanding of the issues reflected in the poster?
• sense of internationalism and accessibility?

The Journey's awesomeness is yet to be determined, but it is certainly a Kinect game. The E3 2012 demo featured about ten minutes of two different levels in the game. You use Microsoft's all-seeing camera to snap and steer a horse's reins, throw a magical spear and open a locked door with magic spells.
But while it all works (once you're shown how to do it - the tutorial is still a work in progress), the real question here is whether this journey is one worth taking. To the game's credit, it does something new with Kinect. The real innovation that came out of Milo and Kate (the Kinect tech demo that Lionhead eventually abandoned), says Lionhead's creative director Gary Carr, "was seated play." Fable: The Journey can be played standing up, but it's really designed to be played on the couch, where you'll wave your arms to control the story and cast combat spells.
The game is as responsive as most Kinect titles, and the controls (once you figure them out) are fairly straightforward - hold up your left hand to charge one spell, or right for another, and then fling the spells forward to cast them out. The two spells shown in the E3 demo were a shock spell (that could be upgraded into a fireball) or a force spell, that could be used to pull the heads or arms off attacking Hollow Men.
The spells did indeed fly where they were sent. But the fun just wasn't there, for whatever reason. It could be that I was doing it wrong; after spurring on a horse for a few minutes by snapping invisible reins, my arms started feeling a little achy, and Carr told me it was because I was supposed to put them down in between snaps. He said that maybe the eventual tutorial would fill me in on that point. Likewise, the spell effects were cool, and the fireballs I threw went where I sent them. But complicated fights eventually broke down into just flailing my arms back and forth, tossing out rapid-fire spells until all of the enemies on screen were dead.
The bright spot here is that Fable: The Journey does have some more subtle touches. All of this spell power is granted to your main character, Gabriel, via a set of magical gauntlets, which are placed on your arms after you stick them out into a pool of magical liquid. That move is simple, but it's effective, with the game going to a point-of-view camera, and your small real-life moves having real in-game consequences. There are moments, too, where you can lean to move through various pieces of cover.
Lionhead is promising a 12-14 hour story that opens up a lot of Fable's backstory (and includes a lot of familiar locations and characters from the main series), and if they can fill that time with lots of variety and strong Kinect-enabled moments, you might care enough to make it through the tamer spellcasting sequences.
While showing off the lean-to-cover mechanics, Carr tells me that, originally, the whole game worked on a lean-to-move mechanic. "We solved it technically," he says, which perhaps caused a lot of the "on rails" confusion when Fable: The Journey was first announced. But what Lionhead found, through its own development and user feedback, was that "this really isn't how I want to play games," Carr says.
We'll see if Lionhead has found the right way to play with Kinect when Fable: The Journey arrives on October 9.

Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
I completed radiation and chemo treatments for head and neck cancer almost 2 years ago. I am now 37 and lead a pretty active and normal lifeexcept, that is, for food! Everything is so dry and difficult. Is there anything I can do?
Katrina Claghorn, MS, RD, registered dietitian at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Radiation and chemotherapy can sometimes cause permanent dry mouth or xerostomia. This makes eating very difficult since saliva functions not only to moisten foods, but is also important in conferring flavor. Consequently eating becomes more difficult and foods lack taste. Here are some general nutrition tips:
Probably the best suggestions come from those who have experienced similar problems. Support groups for patients and survivors of head and neck cancers often have meetings that focus on nutrition issues.
Jan 6, 2011 - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced today that certain tobacco products, including cigarettes, roll-your-own tobacco, and all smokeless products, introduced or changed in the United States after Feb. 15, 2007, must be reviewed by the agency. In its newly published guidance, the agency says that any company marketing a tobacco product must prove that the product is "substantially equivalent" to products commercially available on Feb. 15, 2007.

3 Earnings Trades for the Week
MINNEAPOLIS ( Stockpickr) -- I am simply amazed by the moves in stocks releasing earnings this season . It is hard to believe that a singular event can result in such wild swings, yet that is exactly what is transpiring. I think the action is the result of a new paradigm -- a new normal, as they say.
The stock market is supposedly efficient with its pricing of stocks -- but how, then, can a stock move 30% or more, as Brightpoint (CELL) did last week? Do you mean to tell me that nobody in the market had any idea that this particular company was performing so well?
It defies logic, but if we can correctly predict the moves before they take place, we can make big money. At the end of last week, three more of our earnings stocks released results. Let's see how our trades panned out.

Coinstar (CSTR) was the big mover in the group after the company announced results that were slightly weaker than its most recent. In my view, such an outcome was already priced into the stock, but shares slid nonetheless. Despite the weakness, longer-term investors may view the stock as a buy today. Bebe Stores (BEBE - Get Report) missed guidance with a bigger-than-expected loss. Shares were fairly resilient in the face of that news and held their value, whereas I was expecting them to fall on such news. In my opinion, shares are being supported by an overall bullish sentiment in the market that I believe to be inefficient in terms of pricing Bebe shares. Bebe is on the decline, and there is nothing in the recent report to suggest that things are about to change. This stock should be sold by anyone owning shares. Looking for a stock to short? Look no further than Bebe. MoneyGram (MGI - Get Report) reported a smaller loss than expected, but shares barely budged on the news. Again, I believe the lack of any sort of move indicates a mistake by investors. The overall economic environment combined with MoneyGram's improved operating results make this stock a steal at current prices. This week the earnings train continues to chug along. The pundits and experts continue to pound the table for stocks to take a breather. The markets refuse to obey. If anything, we are seeing pauses as new thresholds are met. This is classic base-building in the midst of a bull market run. Keep that in mind as we look at companies releasing earnings this week.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

EK Aquaponics- "Fish For Tomorrow"
(check out our blog… aquaponicalchemy.blogspot.com)
To provide a local source of organic vegetables and protein year round in a system that does not negatively impact local ecosystems.
This program started with the task of creating a sustainable source of protein to allow fishermen to stay near their home and family, therefore preventing the transfer of HIV/AIDS among island communities. It has since evolved to become part of the organic farming initiative at the Ekialo Kiona Center.
The aquaponic system was designed and built by a team of local craftsmen on Mfangano and an interdisciplinary team of landscape architecture and architecture students from the United States. The 3,500 gallon system is the first of its kind in this part of the world. It is designed in a completely self-sufficient way utilizing solar power and gravity fed systems. The system will produce Nile Tilapia (Native to Lake Victoria), greens, and fruit year round. The system was built using recycled building materials, a disused fishing boat and local materials.
- Maintaining the aquaponics system
- Monitoring fish and plant growth
- Creating innovative prototypes for smaller household systems
- Creating a knowledge base community around organic farming techniques
- Creating awareness surrounding fishing practices, farming methods, and nutrition
- Design and build a prototype household scale system for bait fish production
- Find partners in the US and Kenya
- Use the EK aquaponics system as a demonstration to spread knowledge and awareness
- University of California, Berkeley
- University of Oregon, Eugene
- $20,000
