Competing against 30 of the best marching bands in the East, Northeast, and Southeast circuits, the Newtown High School Marching Band and Guard not only reached their goal of making it into the finals of the USBands "Music in Motion" power regional, but they came within just two points of first place Saturday, November 1.
The event was held at the stadium of the US Navy-Marine Corps Academy in Annapolis, Md.
Following Spirit Week at Newtown High School and ahead of the NHS football team taking on Brookfield that night, a pep rally gathered students into the stands at Blue & Gold Stadium near the end of the school day on Friday, October 24.
Students filled the stadium and dotted the athletic field with school colors, as Friday was also Blue & Gold Day during Spirit Week.
Newtown High School students were inducted into the Newtown Chapter of the National Honor Society during a ceremony on Thursday, October 23.
When Superintendent of Schools Joseph V. Erardi, Jr, spoke near the start of the event, he said he hoped the inductees and their family members could pause from the busy schedule of the day to "revel in the moment.
When Newtown High School senior Sydney Allen began reaching out to businesses on October 7 for help supporting her Junior/Senior Project, she did not know what the response would be.
For the second year in a row, the Newtown High School Marching Band & Guard received the prestigious Cadets Award of Excellence at the USBands New England Championship, held Saturday, October 25, at Veterans Memorial Stadium in New Britain.
Awarded to the school that is determined to be the best in show for creativity and showmanship, the Cadets Award of Excellence can be given to any competing band, regardless of size or class level.
After reviewing new information, the Board of Education, during its meeting on October 21, voted to change its previously approved plans for a proposed Newtown High School auditorium renovation.
During its meeting on October 7, the school board voted to request a special appropriation for the project, and authorized the Public Building & Site Commission to have oversight of the renovation.
Newtown High School Principal Lorrie Rodrigue and Athletic Director Gregg Simon promoted the benefits of athletics and shared a vision for the future of sports at NHS with the Board of Education during its meeting on October 21.
"If you have been to a sports event as an educator or a parent or, of course, as a community member, you really realize how truly lucky we are of the tremendous support that is shown on behalf of our students throughout the year," said Dr Rodrigue.
High School Elementary Musicianship Mentoring Association (HEMMA) board members said this week that applications are available online for elementary school-aged students to sign up to take part in the program, which will start running in January.
"It's a fantastic program," said HEMMA President Richie Sadlon, a senior at Newtown High School.
Parents with college-bound children gathered in Newtown High School's cafetorium on October 8, to hear a presentation by Valark Financial Services advisor and registered principal Charles Wareham, hosted by the high school's counseling office.
The Newtown Marching Band & Guard will honor all 32 of its graduating seniors this Saturday, October 18, when the school hosts the 18th Annual Joseph P. Grasso Music Festival at the high school's Blue & Gold Stadium.

I have five gallons of porter that has been been stuck at 1.020 for over two weeks now. The directions said it should finish at 1.012. As another thread suggests, it may be due to it being made from extract, so I think I'm just going to go ahead and bottle. The question is, should I add priming sugar or just bottle without it? I don't want bombs. By the way, the uncarbonated sample that I took for the hydrometer reading tasted pretty good, if a bit sweet.
Have you raised the temp of the fermenter to see if it will go down anymore? In order to generate co2 to carb the beer you will need to add sugar. But you have to make sure fermentation is indeed stuck first.

I raised the temperature and got bubbling, but that stopped two weeks ago when I first got the 1.020 reading. I could probably raise the temperature again (currently is is at about 60) just to sell. I wasn't planning on bottling for a few days.
That will just insure it's not stuck, and is just really finish. Then you can go ahead and prime and bottle.
You can try to raise the temperature and swirl it, but depending on mash temp. 1.020 could be end.. this is not a strange FG for porters.
We are only 10,000 years into beer... there are thousands of years left to go!

LGBT Rally in Russia Ends in Violence
October 15, 2013 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Tushar M, HRC Global Engagement Fellow
Violent clashes between anti-LGBT mobs and a several dozen protestors ensued this weekend in St. Petersburg at a pro-LGBT rally. In the light of the recent law banning "homosexual propaganda" in Russia, constant crackdown and violence against LGBT people has become more frequent.
Police forces observing the rally waited until fighting broke out between the two groups before intervening. Approximately 200 conservative and religious confronted the protestors. The fight started after anti-LGBT protestors tore a rainbow flag out of a woman's hands. According to news agencies, around 67 people were arrested from both sides. Interestingly, the St. Petersburg city government had sanctioned the rally despite the Russian government's June passage of the propaganda law that banned talking about LGBT rights in public.
State-sponsored homophobia continues to reign unchecked in Russia, with police and authorities not only refusing to register violence against LGBT people, but also propagating it by regularly arresting and harassing LGBT rights activists.
The Human Rights Campaign has already asked taken action including asking the International Olympics Committee to not accept verbal promises from President Putin regarding safety of LGBT people around the Sochi Olympics, and has called for a global Speak Out on Russia with over 120,000 of its members speaking out against anti-LGBT laws and violence in Russia.

Despite the compelling material, reading the book constitutes work. The text is not organized by topic, but rather chronologically from Meeting 1 through Meeting 79. The accounts of each meeting mix various topics, so that after digesting a paragraph about complicated Middle East negotiations involving Israel and Syria, readers must jump to a partisan Republican Party attack on Clinton, and then to a detail about the homework of daughter Chelsea..
This is not meant as a criticism so much as a heads-up for readers who decide to dive into this book.
Branch seems like a trustworthy guide not only to Clinton's actual words, but also to his emotions as he spoke those words. Most of Branch's editorial comments are respectful of Clinton. But Branch is not afraid to occasionally tell readers that, at a certain moment, Clinton seemed overly tired or a captive of wishful thinking or downright deluded.
Branch was not a blank slate when the sessions began. He and Clinton had become friendly in 1972, and even roomed together for a time, while seeking votes in Texas for Democratic presidential candidate George McGovern. Although Branch and Clinton had not seen each other for 20 years when the White House taping began, they retained a bond that could fairly be termed friendship.

Historian tackles first three millennia of the story of the Jews
"The Story of the Jews: Finding the Words 1000 BC-1492 AD" by Simon Schama (Ecco, $39.99)
Whatever you might say about Simon Schama, one of our most prominent and accomplished narrative historians, you can't say he's afraid to tackle broad and challenging subjects. "The Story of the Jews" is the first of a two-volume work aimed at covering three millennia, from 1000 B.C.E to the present day, with the break coming at 1492 and the expulsion of the Jews from Spain by Ferdinand and Isabella.
That's a lot of ground to cover, greater geographically if not in chronological terms than Schama's last multivolume work, a three-tome "History of Britain" published in 2000-02 that reached all the way back to 3500 B.C.E. Like that work, the scale of "The Story of the Jews" was dictated by the requirement of a television documentary series, which aired on PBS. Schama might want to select his inspirations more judiciously in future, for the subject at hand comes close to overmatching even his prodigious talents.
The main signs of struggle come at the beginning of the story, set in the deep pre-biblical past. The difficulty – often, the impossibility – of separating fact from myth, legend and archaeological speculation sometimes reduces Schama's narrative to a muddle. One gets lost tracing the peregrinations of the early Jews between Babylon and Egypt, between the Euphrates and the Nile, or distinguishing between the Jewish communities of Judea (roughly present-day Israel) and Elephantine, an island in the Nile, as distinctive as they were.
Schama resorts to two techniques to work around the muddle. One is to focus on the defining characteristic of the Jewish people, which is their devotion to the book – or, more precisely, the words. As he perceives, it can be enormously effective to track the development of the Jews as a community by watching the development of what would coalesce into the Torah.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Look, but do NOT touch, my awesome fro
HAIR is simply keratinized proteins hanging from our skull.
But to women it's an accessory, a beauty routine, a part of who we are.
Women have a strange and special relationship with their hair and for African women, that relationship is even more complex. One day it's shaved, the next long and straight. From braids to weaves, relaxers to wigs, it's a plethora of wild options that all offer completely new looks.
I was born in Nigeria where varied hair styles (just like bold colourful head-dresses) are a source of pride for most women. Our family moved to Canada when I was two years old and to Winnipeg when I was four years.
My hair is naturally very curly, but I remember loving all the straight hair here when I was young and eventually gave in and began relaxing my hair (a chemical process to make curly hair straight which is anything BUT relaxing!). For years I relaxed it every four to six weeks and suffered the scalp burns, brittle ends and styling products it took to get hair that would move in the wind … even if the hair all moved as a unit and not all flowy like on Pantene commercials!
Just over a year ago I decided to grow my natural hair again and it was the best hair decision I've made. Before you start the pats on the back, let me admit that the real reason for my hair change was less an expression of my heritage and more of vanity.
I noticed grey hair and gave myself an ultimatum: learn to love greying straight hair or stop relaxing it so your natural curls can eventually be dyed. I chose the latter and am still anticipating my very first hair dye job!
The journey from straight to curly hair forced me to seriously think about who I am. That may sound melodramatic, but it's true. Growing out relaxer was an experiment in ugly!
There were four distinct stages for me:
Stage 1: Afro in Disguise
This is when the new growth (curly hair growing in at the roots) is not being chemically treated, but is still short enough for me to disguise it with a blow dryer and flat iron. My hair had more "body" at this stage but still generally looked straight.
Comments: "Aisha, I never noticed how tall you were."
Stage 2: Washed Up '80s Rocker
This is when the new growth has turned into a mini under-fro and is impossible to disguise any longer. I stopped blow-drying it because it was impossible to get through the underbrush!
I had definite curls but the ends were droopy, dried up relaxed bits that had seen their prime months ago.
Comments: "You're growing out your hair? Hang in there giiiirl."
Stage 3: The Wild Afro
This stage is when most of the hair is curly but there are some wild straight bits on the end. They are too short to fit in so they stick straight out all over the place in strange directions.
Comments: "It must take so long for you to straighten JUST the ends of your hair like that."
Stage 4: A Glorious Fro!
This is the stage I'm in right now.
All the previously relaxed bits have been cut off, the curls are defined and wonderful. I no longer have a need for a brush and only comb it in the shower.
Comments: "I love your hair! Can I touch it?"
So here's the story: this fro was a journey, a process, a labour of love!
Although growing it out was not hard work in itself, enduring the stages surely was! My fro is out-of-this-world fantastic but it's also a part of me (as in it's still attached to me, people!) When you see me in the streets do not mistake its awesomeness as an invitation to give it a grope! I've worked long and hard on this fro, so please don't mess with it! Admire it, tell me how much you love it, ask about it, but do not (I repeat DO NOT) walk up behind me and randomly touch my hair unless you want to test your ninja abilities.

U.S. CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION Office of Compliance Requirements1 for Rattles, 16 C.F.R. Part 1510 What is the purpose of the rattle rule? The rattle regulation prevents infants from choking or suffocating on rattles. The rule requires that (1) a rattle stay in one piece after certain tests and (2) a rattle be designed and constructed so that it cannot enter an infant's mouth and block his or her throat. Where can I find the requirements for rattles? The ban is published in the Code of Federal Regulations in Title 16, Part 1510. What is a rattle? A rattle is an infant toy that is (1) intended to be hand-held, (2) usually contains pellets or other small objects, and (3) makes noise when shaken. Not all products that make noises similar to those made by rattles are rattles. Products like dolls, stuffed toys, crib mobiles and exercisers, plastic keys on chains, games and puzzles, and musical instruments such as tambourines and maracas are not rattles. Figure 1- Rattle Test Fixture How do you test a rattle to make sure it can't Does CPSC have any other requirements that choke a child? apply to rattles? Place the rattle in the opening in the test fixture (Figure Yes. Rattles may not have sharp points or edges or be 1) in the position that makes the rattle most likely to go painted with paint that has more than .06 percent lead. through the opening. If any part of the rattle goes all (See 16 C.F.R. 1500.48, 16 C.F.R. 1500.49, and 16 the way through the opening without being pushed or C.F.R. Part 1303) pulled, the rattle fails. Are there any voluntary requirements under the Repeat this test after you perform impact, flexure, Standard Consumer Safety Specification on Toy torque, tension and compression testing (see 16 C.F.R.

If the rattle or any piece that may choke a child.

Carole Bartolotto: The problem with concluding that GMOs are safe is that the argument for their safety rests solely on animal studies. These studies are offered as evidence that the debate over GMOs is over. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Margo McCall: There's increasing evidence that adopting a plant-based diet is better for human health, the planet, and of course for the more than 9 billion animals that are killed for consumption each year in the U.S alone.

International law firm Vedder Price offers its clients their
pick from a wide array of services but attracts particular
attention for its finance and transportation practices and for its
defense in the 2012 class action suit Jorie Johnson v. The John
Marshall Law School. Headquartered in Chicago, the firm has
represented clients from financial organizations and educational
institutions to CEOs and talk show hosts.
Metropolises Here and Abroad
Formerly known as Vedder, Price, Kaufman &
Kammholz, PC, Chicago firm Vedder Price's taste for the metropolis
extends beyond the Midwest. The firm was founded in 1952 and has
since expanded its presence with domestic branches in New York and
DC and one abroad in London. The BTI Consulting Group placed the
firm on its "Client Service A-Team" 2013 list as one of seven
"'leaders of the best' at providing value for the dollar." Still,
the firm gets by. Vedder Price ranks in the AmLaw 200 for gross
revenue and Chambers ranked it top-tier nationally for its
Aviation: Finance and Banking & Finance practices.
CEOs and Talk Show Hosts
Vedder Price has gone to bat for all sorts of high-profile
individuals. Vedder Price served as counsel to Huron Consulting
Group co-founder and CEO and Chairman Gary Holdren in a 2009 SEC
investigation. With the firm's help, charges against Holdren were
dismissed in summer 2012. Vedder Price also advised PBS talk show
host Charlie Rose and his eponymous production company in settling
an unpaid intern wage suit.
Guardians of the Skies and the Seas
Vedder Price doesn't restrict itself to dealing with the law of
the land. The firm's Global Transportation Finance practice
encompasses maritime, aviation, railroad and aerospace industries.
The firm finances all manners of transportation vessels from
railway cars to cruise ships, ferries and carriers to small jets,
turbopop aircrafts and helicopters. Vedder Price is particularly
known for its Maritime and Aviation Finance practices. The firm
wrote an amicus curiae brief for the Maritime Law Association of
the United States in the U.S. Supreme Court case Fane Lozman v.
The City of Riviera Beach, Fla., where the Supreme Court ruled
that plaintiff Lozman's floating home did not technically count as
a vessel, effectively deciding that while a house may not be a
home, it certainly isn't a boat.
Vedder Price Diversity Scholarship
Vedder Price awards the Vedder Price Diversity Scholarship,
started in 2005, to 1Ls attending one of seven Illinois law
schools: Chicago-Kent College of Law, DePaul University, John
Marshall Law School, Northwestern University, Loyola University
Chicago, University of Chicago or the University of Illinois. The
scholarship--intended to bolster diversity in the Illinois legal
community--grants $5,000 to the recipient to defray law school
expenses and offers a summer associate position for the post-1L

All of the major US carriers have already announced they will carry the new BlackBerry 10 devices. Now we see evidence that Verizon is definitely on board in a new leaked promo page. Twitter user @evleaks posted the leaked promo page that clearly shows Verizon will have its own version of the BlackBerry Z10. The image is so small that you can't make much else out, but BB10 is definitely on its way to Verizon.

(PRWEB) August 06, 2013
On July 26 U.S. District Judge David A. Katz granted a DePuy Orthopaedics motion to exclude evidence of the 2010 voluntary recall of the DePuy ASR during the September bellwether trial in the federal multidistrict litigation. The Rottenstein Law Group LLP, a DePuy ASR law firm, explains what this means for those who have filed or are looking to file DePuy lawsuits.
Katz granted the motion because of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, according to court documents in In re: DePuy Orthopaedics Inc., ASR Hip Implant Products Liability Litigation (MDL-2197; U.S District Court for the Northern District of Ohio). There are thousands of ASR metal-on-metal hip lawsuits pending in the federal consolidation.
"If the judge has decided to exclude evidence of the recall," said Rochelle Rottenstein, principal of the Rottenstein Law Group LLP, "then it's probably because he feels that that evidence would be more prejudicial than probative. That is, if the jurors hear that the product at issue was recalled, they might conclude that there's nothing else to consider and DePuy has to be culpable. But that's not necessarily the proper legal analysis, and the judge has to ensure that the appropriate procedure of weighing all the relevant information isn't short-circuited. Otherwise, DePuy will have grounds for an appeal of a verdict and award for the plaintiff. So the ruling might seem like a hurdle for the plaintiff, but it will likely make any decision in the plaintiff's favor that much stronger."
The DePuy ASR hip replacement system has been under U.S. Food and Drug Administration scrutiny, primarily because of one dangerous alleged side effect called "metal poisoning," or "metallosis." According to the FDA*, metal particles could peel off into the patient's bloodstream when the device's metal parts rub together. Th

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I get to select the site at which I'm volunteering? Yes, you get to select which of our service sites you want to spend time with for Grads Give Back! On the registration form you will have the opportunity to select the placement site you prefer based on your own interests and time availability. Note, however, that some sites are limited to a specific number of students. We recommend that you register early in order to sign up for a site you prefer.
Do I need to have a car in order to get to sites? No you don't! As long as you can get to the Murray Graduate Student Center, we will help you get transportation to your placement site. The larger sites will have a bus or van provided, but for some we will ask students who have cars to volunteer to drive. If you yourself have a car and are willing to drive others, please indicate that on your registration form.
What does the day look like? We ask volunteers to arrive to the Murray House about an hour before their site start time on the morning of Grads Give Back (note that if it's easier for you based on transportation and site location, you can arrange to go straight to your service site in the morning). At the Murray House you will sign in with us, receive a free tshirt, enjoy a complimentary breakfast with fellow volunteers so that you get to know the other grad students going to your site with you, and pack up some snacks that we'll give you to bring along to your site. Groups then head out together to service sites. Transportation will be provided back to the Murray House.
Can I attend with a group? If you are the leader of a student organization and would like your members to be assigned to a specific site, please contact Ashley Hopper at email@example.com in order to make arrangements. If you are not the leader of a specific group but would like to attend the event with friends, make sure your friends select the same site as preferences on their registration forms!
More questions? Feel free to contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling the Murray Graduate Student Center at 617-552-1855.

Here is what some entrepreneurs told the Washington Post about hiring someone to handle social media.
Paul Gollash, founder and CEO of New York-based Voxy:
"We originally tried to manage our social media presence part-time, but we learned quickly that in order to go from just having a presence to actually building and maintain high-value relationships on several different platforms, we needed a full-time social media manager. So yes, we do have a full-time person on social media.
Erin Blaskie, CEO of BSETC in Ontario, Can.:
"Within our team of 20 subcontractors, we have two that focus entirely on social media activities for our company and for our clients' companies. One reason is because we also incorporate specific tracking techniques to help us measure effectiveness and reach. While tracking techniques are used in traditional marketing also, it is helpful to have someone already well-versed in this specific area.
These two companies use an expert, do you?

Yesterday afternoon the 'Losing it in Louisiana' team invaded the State Capitol. Our participants took a cycling class on the front steps of the State Capitol. Baton Rouge Mayor Kip Holden stopped by, along with Senator Sharon Weston-Broome.
The goal of our program is to get the message out that people need to get moving and start losing weight. Louisiana has some of the highest obesity levels in the country.
We'll have more from last night's event coming up next week on 'Losing it in Louisiana'.

It's amazing to me that someone in the press would leak this (if that's in fact what happened), shows you how awful his relationship with them must be. And I never thought it was rosy.
Not good timing at all for Bo. Looks like they waited for the ideal moment to come out with it.
I wonder if the university had a heads up. It would help explain Bo's comments in the press conference.
Well, now the AD will have some cover if he thinks changes are in order.

Definite evidence that's it's been far from rosy for years now. And as I mentioned in the thread over there (having a relationship with someone in the press), this is far from the only damaging thing regarding Bo out there -- just the first leaked.

Celebrity Infinity Cruise Review by dbr123: Don't Understand the Complaints

Compare Prices on Celebrity Infinity Alaska Cruises
Don't Understand the Complaints
My husband and I just got home from the September 7, 2012 sailing to Alaska on Infinity. I honestly do not understand what all the complaint reviews are about. We found the staff very helpful and friendly. Our head waiter, Alfred, and our assistant waiter, Oscar, could not have been better. The were very concerned about our meal and if we were enjoying our dinner. The buffet had any kind of food one could possibly want. I will concede, however, that the buffet line menu could have been changed once or twice. The cruise director was great and the naturalist was very informative and entertaining. While our cabin was smaller that ones on Carnival, we have plenty of room and the shower was the biggest I have ever seen on a cruise ship.
Our check in to get on and off the ship was extremely fast and organized. It took us about 15 minutes to board the ship and we were off by 8:30. The tethering in Juneau also was no problem. If a shore excursion was booked, the staff made sure More we were off the ship in plenty of time. While we were tethered in Juneau there was also 2 or 3 other ships there and all were using the lifeboats as transportation.
Honestly, I don't know what all the people who complained were expecting but if I had to guess, I would say they wouldn't be satisfied with anything.
Would I recommend Celebrity to a friend--Yes, in a heartbeat.
Would I sail with Celebrity again-Yes, in a heartbeat!! Less

Windows Phone Now Recognized By Google Analytics
Welcome to the big leagues, Windows Phone. You're now being recognized as an operating system by Google Analytics, rather than being generically reported as "not set."
WP Sauce noted the change this week and alerted us to it. However, it appears to be something that happened back on November 15. I found Windows Phone appearing in several Google Analytics accounts I checked as of that date.
Here's an example of it beginning to be found in one account:
Unfortunately, we cannot see which devices are being used with Windows Phone. This information could be very useful when optimizing the Windows Phone experience.
As shown in a research on mobile usage, the customer behavior (and conversion rates) differ significantly between devices, OS and platforms (App or Mobile sites).

Oblivionauts Beta - CombinedMay 17, 2013 Demo 0 comments
Both the main file for the Oblivionauts beta release and the Sample Map. Read the included Readme for installation steps.
Oblivionauts is a new type of Skyrim mod. Most mods make a small or large change to Skyrim, allowing players to use their characters, items, and abilities in different ways. Then there are the big mods. The overhauls, the ENBs, the total-conversion mods, etc. But this does not quite fit into any of those categories. Oblivionauts is (what we call) a Modular Minigame. By Modular we mean that it can be modified by anyone using an .esp. Do you want some more maps to play through? Just download a map pack from us or someone else! Do you want to be able to play all races or use a class-based character design? Make or download an Oblivionauts mod that does it! By "Minigame" we mean that it is not an open-world RPG like Skyrim, but instead is a relatively short game that can be played in may different ways.
So how is it different from Skyrim? And how do you play it? Unlike Skyrim, you do not traverse the wide, open world of Tamriel on a grand adventure to fulfill your destiny. Oblivionauts is a platform for Skyrim mods that allows you to play Skyrim without the Skyrim world; just mods. The idea behind Oblivionauts is to provide you with a base, from which you can teleport to any number of modder-made maps. This allows moddders to make places, quests, and items as much as they want to without having to worry about conflicts and compatibility issues with the normal Skyrim world and other mods.
Unique Features:
Release Plan:
The Oblivionauts beta version is available now and can be downloaded here. Please read the Beta Release announcement article for more information.
The first part of the v1.0 release is planned for completion in late May or early June.
We have a wiki that we are using to develop the mod and store information. When the mod is released, it will also act as the main website for Oblivionauts. If you want to learn more about the mod's details, you can visit it at the link below. The hidden Development section contains the majority of our details for now. When pages are finalized, they will be moved out of the hidden section. Please keep in mind as you view the wiki that everything on it is subject to change, and not everything is visible to non-developers.
Oblivionauts is compatible with many existing Skyrim mods. Anything that does not require access to the vanilla Skyrim world should be compatible with Oblivionauts. Thus, quest mods will not work. UI mods, texture/mesh-replacement mods, item mods (that use Leveled Lists), and ENBs should work with Oblivionauts.
Stay Updated!
You can stay updated on our progress by checking any of the following sites. Updates will also be posted here as news articles.

Oblivionauts Beta Released
The Oblivionauts beta has been released with all features except dialogue and a sample map!
Oblivionauts is a platform for Skyrim mods that allows you to play Skyrim without the Skyrim world;justmods. The idea behind Oblivionauts is to provide you with a base, from which you can teleport toanynumber of modder-made maps. This allows modders to make places, quests, and items as much astheywant to without having to worry about conflicts and compatibility issues with the normal Skyrimworldand other mods.
Included is a sample map. This sample map is nothing more than a desert island, but demonstratestheOblivionauts portal system effectively. It can also serve as a template that mods authors can usetolearn about Oblivionauts and make their own maps and dungeons.
Oblivionauts has no extra requirements such as SKSE (The Skyrim Script Extender), and is simpletoinstall. Once installed, go to 'New' in Skyrim's Main Menu and select 'Yes' to start a new gameofOblivionauts.
Read the readme to learn how to install Oblivionauts. The installation process is simple, but MUSTbefollowed to install Oblivionauts correctly.
Visit the download page here to download the beta.
The release version will be available after I have added dialogue and trading. The release version will be available on both ModDB and the Skyrim Nexus.
Beta Information for Modders:
Because Oblivionauts is in its beta stage, you will probably encounter some bugs and missing features. Dialogue and trading has not been implemented yet, and the levels need to be optimized more. Please report any bug or errors you find in the forums.
Currently, there is not much content for players in Oblivionauts. However, all of the core features are available for modders to start making their own maps for you to travel to. In the near future I will release tutorials on how to add your map to the Oblivionauts map list, as well as advice on how to make existing Skyrim mods compatible with Oblivionauts.
In conclusion, I have a question for you. Would you rather that I focus on improving and adding story and dialogue in Oblivionauts for the release, or would you rather that I focus on improving and adding features and options to the mod? I could spend my time writing conversations and working with voice actors to add dialogue, or I can spend my time making Oblivionauts more functional and useful. Let me know which you prefer.
Introduction Video

This looks amazing! I'll try to spread the word about this; this has a lot of potential! I hope it's released this year, that would be awesome! This looks very unique, tracking! :)
I'm actually a mod developer too, but I work with HPL2. I've never tried to develop a mod for "the Elder Scrolls". Although, I am a huge fan of Bethesda's work (including "The Elder Scrolls" and "Fallout") and I would love to learn how to develop mods for those games. Anyways, I'll try to find some Skyrim mod developers who are available and could help/join your development group.
Thank you for the complements and support! Currently, if we manage to get the support we need, then the plan is to have the first version released sometime during the summer.
Amnesia has always intrigued me, but I can't sleep if I play horror games. :D I've taken a look at your projects and they are quite impressive. Great job!
If you want to learn how to mod using the Creation Kit, there are a series of good tutorials on Bethesda's Youtube Channel to introduce you to the tools. Beyond that the best advice I can think of to learn the system is to find some feature or place that you think is missing and add it. My first Skyrim mod was very basic and added Unarmed combat playability. After that I kept expanding on the idea and adding more and more. There are a ton of fantastic tutorials on Youtube which I've used, and the online community is very helpful in the forums if you have any questions.
Thank you for your support and any help you can bring our way. If you know of some good Skyrim modders, then feel free to contact them or give me their contact details. I'd love to contact them and determine whether or not they can be of some use. Level designers (especially ones who have made new regions and not just dungeons and houses) are what we are mainly looking for now. Concept artists would also be of great use. Let me know if you find anyone, and thanks! :)
Oh GAWD, the crappy Creation Kit? Please, don't suggest that POS to anyone unless you want them to commit suicide. CK is horrible and that's why I will NEVER mod Skyrim. Not only is the game not stable as it is, but the Creation Kit just makes it even moreso. 50% of mods made with it don't work and the other 50% of people using it have to always fix bugs constantly because it sucks monkey nuts. It seems to be a stripped down, handicapped version of what Bethesda used to make Skyrim. If it is not the same kit, then that explains everything wrong with Skyrim. Don't get me wrong I LOVE the game, but Bethesda are lazy these days and need to do better.
If you don't like the mod, then don't post **** about it on the page. Some of us actually love the idea of this potentially game-changing mechanic, and I, frankly, find your constant idiocy and **** smeared across the comments. Please, take the time (when you jerk off alone, perhaps?) to re-think your life and the choices you've made, so that maybe you could possibly be a benefit to society in the future. Thank you!

Yes! Finally something fresh. I hope that the final version of the mod comes out faster than other mods. Good luck.
I hope so too. I need some more people on the team to get it released by the time I would like to, but I'm looking for modders to ask. If you know of any good quest and location modders, feel free to give me a link so I can take a look at their work. :-)
Sounds great!
