I honestly think the authenticator password should be mandatory. Theres a ton of bots in game and almost all of them are hacked accounts. mmorpgs should just force the use of authenticators so this doesnt happen. most people arent stupid enough to fall for phishing scams, have unique passwords, and they dont buy gold, but they still get hacked anyway. I find that a lot of 3rd party websites targetted to the mmorpg of choice, have lot of security flaws and are even displaying banner ads asking you to buy gold for that specific game. I'm pretty sure this is how a lot of people are getting infected and their passwords stolen, from visiting ffxiv wiki or something to just look up skills or an item and then having some malicious script install a keylogger or worm into their computer. honestly, when i visit one of those ffxiv wiki's i feel like they are being hosted by the same companies running illegal streaming sites, except now the people installing viruses know exactly what virus to send to my computer to get my information.
i hate bots and gold sellers, they along with people who buy from them should just die.
Most memorable games: AoC(Tryanny PvP), RIFT, GW, GW2, Ragnarok Online, Aion, FFXI, FFXIV, Secret World, League of Legends (Silver II rank)

They can't force it - not everyone has a smartphone (believe it or not) and some folks are not willing to buy the physical fob.
They should let players use Google authenticator as it supports multiple apps (each game would still generate a unique code, but they would all be listed under Google Authenticator).
Currently I have a Rift app, Battle.net, Square Enix - I could have an entire screen on my phone with authenticator apps, its just dumb.
But they'd have to pay Google, oh well.

I agree, but we are talking about the same people who probably have the one password does it all mentality. So they replicate their passwords on every online resource they ever use.
I once had my WoW account hacked. They didn't actually hack my WoW account. they hacked my email account and changed my WoW password through battlenet. Since then, I use a spreadsheet. All my passwords are on it. and are NEVER EVER keyed. Even the original paste are cut n pasted from other sources. Once it's on the sheet, I'll never key it in anywhere.
Well, for FF14, I don't care since I use the OTP.
Beyond that, I have a speparate password for everything I do, no password is duplicated anywhere. I use NoScript in Firefox, along with Antivirus and SpyBot. I keep regular updates and active scans. I probably don't need OTP but I won't take any chances.
And frankly, if you are going to pay a monthly sub, not getting the authenticator is a bit ridiculous. Frankly, they should have charged $40 for the game and mailed them out to everyone.

I looked at this option, but there are fair amount of comments on the SE mobile authenticator regarding problems. Specifically, the mobile app bugs out, and will lock you out of your account when it does so. That coupled with the lack of responsive and competent customer service make this a non starter.

Mandatory - no.
But for FFXI they did offer incentives, like extra bag space, if you linked an authenticator to your account. I can see them doing something similar here.
They do ship the authenticator with the physical CE edition. And they make the mobile app available for free...
Authenticators don't fix everything, and I find them to be a royal pain in the ass to have to use -- especially since you can't even log into the Lodestone without it (and I'd like to check from work, but damn, left my fob at home) but they go a very long way to helping.

They are a pain, and I was thinking of unlinking mine, but with the amount of stolen accounts we are seeing no way. Imagine getting your account stolen, spending hours getting through to customer support, and then when you get back in game half the server has you on blacklist because of gil seller spamming.

"It is double pleasure to deceive the deceiver". - Niccolo Machiavelli
is not the companies fault that careless people get hacked.
Fortunately i have never been hacked, but it is not a coincidence that i happen to use long passwords mixed with numbers, symbols, capital and lower case letters, making words not found in dictionaries. And i am not lazy about my accounts security so i do that with every account i have.
I also have a physical paper full of passwords in case i forget them (which i tend to do, a lot of times), nobody enters my room so it is safe here.
Also keep the computer clean. People shouldnt point fingers other than to themselves when they arent doing their homework then get hacked because of it. The authenticator is a nice little helper but i only use it in WoW. Relying too much on authenticators would deter (IMO) my habit of securing long and dificult passwords.

Not mandatory. Not everybody has a smart phone (I personally hate the blasted things), and there's really no practical way to get authenticators to people who buy digital copies without making them wait a few days (or longer) after they register their game code to play. I suppose a 'grace period' could be offered, but that presents its own set of problems.
I do feel that there's absolutely no reason why any P2P or B2P MMO shouldn't have both a software based and physical one as an available security option, and a physical one should be included in the contents of any boxed copies of an online game sold.
Much like vehicle security systems, they won't stop a determined professional but they'll certainly ruin an average thief's day.
I actually don't know any of my game passwords - I don't need to - just need to know the password to get into my password program keeper (I use LastPass and KeePass) and that's it. What's nice about these apps is that they don't keep the pwd in your clipboard, it auto-flushes them from memory after 10seconds.
I don't even know my email passwords at this point.
They are all a complete mishmash of characters and always the max length.
stuff like this (example - not an actual pswd lol)
No way in hell I could remember that even if I wanted to... let alone remember multiple ones like that.. forget it.
The other *must* is using authenticator apps for email AND games!

3rd party fansites for games are really useful, but I doubt they spend much money on security and/or database encryption. They almost all have user registration databases (those details can be monetized), but I'd not be in the least surprised if they are regularly hacked and have all their registration details stolen. They probably don't really care, anyway. People that use the same password for everything are at major risk there.
I use different and reasonably complex passwords for every single website or game that requires one. I'm paranoid about emails and I will NEVER click on a link in a mail if there is any other way of logging into the website and getting the action performed. There usually is, the email links are almost always for convenience only. I have never had a game account hacked in 13 years of online gaming. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Except for Internet Cafes tho! There People can install mallware and sit behind you on another computer and Fish Your account info away via the network.
Most People get hacked who use the same password everywhere else, like public sites, forums, guild sites, etc that have very low Security and are easily hacked.

Not that there's anything wrong with doing so, but going out of your way to use these complicated 15 character passwords that use a bunch of symbols does next to nothing to make these online accounts more secure.
The accounts being compromised aren't being "guessed". They aren't being brute forced and gotten into because the password wasn't strong enough. They're one shot, first login attempts because they got the password in full from another source.

About the Google app... I hate it that it's 'locked' behind the Google Play store. I do have an Android MP3-player, but that one (like most native MP3-players) is no Google Play supported device. I'd love to use the Android app on that thing, but too bad I can't download it :-(
With all those hacked accounts and the need of more security I decided to buy the physical authenticator today. Also because I'm planning on playing FFXIV:ARR for the coming months (year?). Sadly though, the SOE & Blizzard authenticators can't be used for FFXIV:ARR, where I can use the 2 of them for each other's service...

I don't think authenticator or one-time password stuff is necessary.
They could force a password reset and force strong passwords. This is a bit less of a pain for users. ANet did it early on with GW2 if memory servers due to the number of morons getting hacked.
People *should* start learning (years ago) to use basic common sense when it comes to security and the web.
If you use the same usernames and passwords across sites and games or use anything but strong passwords, you are pretty much asking to be hacked.
I'm getting pretty tired of seeing threads about people getting hacked and blaming everyone but themselves. It's not SE's fault if your computer is a cesspool, you lack basic common sense, and you're too stupid and lazy to do very simple things to protect your data.
I'm also tired of gil spammers. Yeah, SE could do *ANYTHING/SOMETHING* to filter the spam, or since it's P2P they could actually have GMs that keep chat clear. But SE has so far proven to be pretty much all around inept. Most of the gil spammers I've seen are most likely from hacked accounts. So, hey players, wake the hell up and protect your accounts!
You can use Microsoft Security Essentials for FREE (and it's decently regarded) virus protection. Since it's by MS it is completely seamless with windows and you'll never know it's there, unlike a lot of other virus protection software that is bloated, generally annoying, AND costs yearly fees. Keeping your machine free of keyloggers, Trojans, and viruses is very basic security. Install once and never think about it again. MS SE works with windows going back to XP and has been around for years now. There's no excuse for not having virus protection when you can get quality protection for free.
You can use a program like KeePass to generate unique and highly complex passwords for all the forums and games you use. KeePass is an encrypted password database - all you'll ever need with this type of program is to remember the password for IT. This is a very simple way to add a huge amount of protection to your logins. YOU won't even know your passwords (you can look at them but it's not exactly easy to remember 12-20 digit mixes of random characters, numbers, and symbols). KeePass lets you create passwords of different lenths or customize your own creation schemes for those amazingly lame entities that don't let you have long passwords (really, really annoying in this day and age of hacking and security).
Unfortunately a lot of games use your email address for a login. Unless you create a bunch of different accounts or a new account for each game you play, you are very likely already at risk due to this. Email addresses get passed around like sorority chicks. If a potential hacker has your username, you're already half way cracked. It is imperative that you use a very strong unique password for any game where you're using an email address that you use anywhere else.
It's hard to teach common sense but treat the web with caution. Be a "defensive user." No game company will ever ask you for the password to your account. Anybody asking for that is trying to scam you. Ie, do not ever give your password to anybody. Learn to differentiate between quality online resources and crappy ones that are likely going to be littered with e-garbage (like Trojans and stuff). If you buy gill from RMT and/or use any other TOS breaking junk, you not only risk losing your account if SE catches and punishes you, but obviously dealing with scumbags is a great way to compromise your account and data since they're not exactly giving a crap about anything except easy money.

In 2003, Hearts for Hearing, a 501 (c)(3) was established as a not-for-profit organization by a group of dedicated audiologists to provide funding for the initial set of hearing aids for deaf or hard of hearing hildren in Oklahoma and to support families in their listening journey at the Hearing Enrichment Language Program (HELP).
In 2007, Hearts for Hearing expanded our mission to become a comprehensive hearing health program for both children and adults offering auditory-verbal therapy as well as an auditory-oral preschool. In early 2013, to meet the growing demand for adult hearing healthcare, the organization expanded again and opened an adult clinic specifically designed for adults in space proximal to the existing clinic. Now our patients have the opportunity to select from the most comprehensive hearing technology available today.

Neil Young has long been active in environmental concerns, and now he's again putting his money -- and his mouth -- where, well, his mouth is. Young has aligned with the Rainforest Connection, an initiative fighting illegal logging in the Amazon and elsewhere by using cellphone technology to catch poachers. Young appears in a new video supporting the organization, saying, "Climate change is the defining issue of the 21st century. There are a lot of factors, but forests are one of the big ones. There is a technology that is a connection between the rainforest and you. This technology enables the forest to talk to the world. When the forest is threatened, the forest can speak -- and you can hear it." Young has also donated 10 specially made Pono players with the Rainforest Connection logo laser-engraved on them to help the group raise funds and will be offering special high-definition downloads of rainforest sounds to donors. Young is currently on a European tour with Crazy Horse that wraps up August 8 in Colmar, France.

|Psalm 30
|Next »
David having been delivered from great danger, not only renders thanks to God apart by himself, but at the same time invites and exhorts all the pious to perform the same duty. He then confesses that he had flattered himself too confidently in his prosperity, and that his security had justly been chastised. In the third place, having briefly expressed his sorrow, he returns again to thanksgiving.
A psalm sung at the dedication of David's house.
Interpreters doubt whether this psalm was composed by David, or by some of the prophets after the return of the Jews from the Babylonish captivity; for house means, in their opinion, the temple. But as the title expressly mentions David's name, it is more probable that it is David's private house which is here spoken of. Moreover, the supposition entertained by some, that when he was about to dedicate his palace, he was seized with heavy sickness, is founded upon no solid reason. We may rather conjecture from what is stated in sacred history, that as soon as he had built his royal palace, he dwelt in it quietly and at his ease. He said to the prophet Nathan, that he felt ashamed comfortably "to dwell within an house of cedar," while "the ark of God dwelt under curtains," (2 Samuel 7:2.) Besides, to restrict that to sickness which is here spoken generally concerning some kind of danger, is altogether groundless. It is more probable, that Absalom being dead, and his faction extinguished, and the fatal commotion which they had raised put down, David celebrated the divine favor toward him, as one who had returned from exile to his former station in his kingdom. For he mentions that he was chastised by God's hand, because, exulting too much in his happy estate, and almost intoxicated with it, he falsely and foolishly promised himself entire freedom from adversity. Moreover, when he began to inherit the magnificent and royal palace, of which I have just spoken, his kingdom was yet scarcely restored to peace. It was not yet time, therefore, for forgetfulness of human frailty to creep upon him, which might provoke the wrath of God, and expose him to dangers which might bring him to the very verge of destruction. It is not unreasonable, therefore, to suppose, that in this psalm he celebrates God's favor to him in restoring him to his former state. It was necessary again to dedicate his house, which had been defiled by the incestuous whoredoms of Absalom, and other wickednesses; and under this word seems to be denoted a double blessing, both his restoration to life and to his kingdom: as if he had said, that after settling the public affairs of his kingdom, he sung this song, and solemnly dedicated his house to God that he might live in his own family. But it must be briefly observed concerning this ceremony of the law, that as we are very slow and cold in thinking of God's benefits, this exercise was enjoined upon his ancient people, that they might understand that there is no pure and lawful use of any thing without thanksgiving to God. As by offering the first-fruits to God, therefore, they acknowledged that they received the increase of the whole year from him, in like manner, by consecrating their houses to God, they declared that they were God's tenants, confessing that they were strangers, and that it was he who lodged and gave them a habitation there. 620620 "Se recognoissans estrangers, et que c'estoit luy qui les y logeoit et leur bailloit demeurance." — Fr. If a levy for war, therefore, took place, this was a just cause of exemption, when any one alleged that he had not yet dedicated his house. 621621 "Quand l'homme allegoit qu'il n'avoit encores dedid sa maison." — Fr. Besides, they were at the same time admonished by this ceremony, that every one enjoyed his house aright and regularly, only when he so regulated it that it was as it were a sanctuary of God, and that true piety and the pure worship of God reigned in it. The types of the law have now ceased, but we must still keep to the doctrine of Paul, that whatever things God appoints for our use, are still "sanctified by the word of God and prayer," (1 Timothy 4:4, 5.)

cool, congrats!
One Color Only
One Color Only is not all that it seems, One color filters through an exploding prism. The light band emanating from the prism shows a rainbow of color, did the light break the prism or is it fixed in a state of explosion? This interesting homage to The Dark Side of the Moon is cool, bold and simple in its execution but awesome on a black tee.

Led by Eunuchs Association Provincial President Farzana, demonstrators gathered outside the Peshawar Press Club. Addressing the gathering, Farzana claimed they were severally tortured and told to leave their homes.
On Sunday, a clash erupted between transgenders and other residents of the area, after which the former went to the police to register an FIR. "Despite registering the case, police started beating them with their batons," alleged Farzana, adding the locals also joined in the assault.
Residents of the area have reportedly started a campaign against khwaja saraas following the bomb blast at Madrassah Arif Hussaini in Gulshan Colony in June this year. Residents asked them to vacate their houses, claiming visitors posed a security threat to the neighbourhood.

Margo Joan Mary just finished eating her SECOND piece of homemade coffee cake. It has raisins in it and Margo used farm fresh eggs (organic) and buttermilk (organic) to make it. The streusel topping has lots of cinnamon, real butter, 1/2 cup walnuts and brown sugar. Margo likes to live simply when she is simply living, but when she cooks or bakes, she tries to make it worth her time. She also has a to-die-for rhubarb jelly recipe that includes the jelled orange candies that used to be for sale Back in the Day. The candies are the thickening agent; M believes there is pineapple in the recipe, if her memory is right. That, too, is delicious.

You can always add a diesel generator.. You would need the space and it would cost alot to add (Ballpark $7-10k).You might be able to do it cheaper. But unless you had a good sized boat finding a good spot for it would be a hassle and the plumbing and necessary installation would not be trivial.
I guess you could do "something" with a diesel auxiliary engine, but it would put more hours on it than I wanted. There might be some "unique" systems out there that could run off a compressor on the engine. (They do have engine driven refrigeration systems, but they usually only run a few hours a day and freeze a cold plate) But the complexity is more than I would want on board.
If its only a temporary/once in a while thing, then I would get a honda gas generator and a smaller AC unit and just be careful with the gas and fumes.....(BTW we carry gas for our outboards anyway, so its not that big of a deal)

Hal Lindsey & Tim Lahaye
Harold Lee Hal Lindsey (born November 23, 1929) is an American evangelist and Christian writer. He is a Christian Zionist and dispensationalist author. Timothy F. Tim LaHaye (born April 27, 1926) is an American evangelical Christian minister, author, and speaker./5
Hal Lindsey Tim Lahaye John Hagee Jack Van Impe Pat Robinson Catholic Church New Testament Pat Robertson Bart Ehrman Paul Crouch Chuck Smith Harold Camping Perry Stone Matthew Henry Kenneth Hagin Kenneth Copeland Benny Hinn Jerry Jenkins
If you would like to understand what the authors of the New Testament were writing about and how the New Testament came to be one compilation, Bart Ehrman's The History of the Bible: The Making of the New Testament is a great resource. Much better than Tim Lahaye fiction and Hal Lindsey fiction.
Stephen Lobergposted toLets honestly talk about rapture Books by Tim Lahaye, John Hagee, Pat Robinson, Jack Van Impe, Benny Hinn, Jerry Jenkins,Thomas Ice, Hinson, Hal Lindsey, Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin, R. Humbard, Grant Jefferies and most of the Armageddon and Last days events books are used to promote Anti-Christ doctrine. The rapture is a Jesuits Luciferian theology used by agents of the Rothschild /Illuminati cabal. What is the difference between the Rapture and the Second coming? The Second Coming of Christ is often confused with the Rapture… The word rapture does not appear in the Bible but some people have often used the Greek word harpazo – caught up for the rapture. Rapture comes from the Latin word RAPIO define as - seize by force, pillage, ravage and rape. When Jesus comes for His people he will not rape them, nor pillage or seize by force.
You know, when you read Revelation 13, it's hard not to think of the theology fronted by guys like Hal Lindsey and Tim Lahaye. That stuff has so saturated modern Christianity that it is hard for people to look past it. Matthew Henry, a commentator who wrote in the 1700s, didn't see a complex play of a post rapture melodrama, but just one more example of the theme of Revelation: Yeah, there will be problems, but God is sovereign. He sees this: One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled as they followed the beast. Now, the newer commentators have this as the antiChrist being shot in the head and recovering miraculously. Henry, writing two hundred years before the modern theology got popular, thinks it means perhaps (he says "may be") "The wounding the head may be the abolishing pagan idolatry; and the healing of the wound, introducing popish idolatry, the same in substance, only in a new dress, but which as effectually answers the devil's de ...
I see what u r saying but when eschatologists like Jack Van Impe, Hal Lindsey, Tim Lahaye, etc. agree, makes me wonder.
What is the difference between Harold Camping and the Mayans, Hal Lindsey, Tim Lahaye, Jack Van Impe, Perry Stone...
good night American Zionists, Hal Lindsey, Tim Lahaye, Israel & Israeli settlers & other like-minded... - reminds me of Numbers 22:29
What kind of "horses" do you think these Khazar/Ashkenazis are galloping into Israel on? Well, since the Talmud says that the "Goyim are really beasts in human form" and are "like horses" I think they are riding in on the backs of stupid *** that are even now serving them: like John Hagee, and Hal Lindsey, and Paul Crouch and Pat Robertson and Tim Lahaye and Chuck Smith and just about every evangelical Christian out there and let's not forget the Pope and the Catholic Church. They are the dumb horses and mules that are giving these children of Gog their 'horsey ride' in to possess the "mountains of Israel" both over there in the Mideast and throughout the world.

We stayed in a Travelodge though as it was the best option for us as we were there for Alan to work.
As it is a chain it's obviously not a typical Irish hotel but it was adequate for our needs
Thank you Sister Tinkerbell! Did you enjoy your time there? I know when going for work, it's different then going on holiday, but just wondering about your thoughts on the area?
Galway town was lovely, we could have very easily spent a lot more time there
There are lots of little shops, restaurants and bars. We ate a tiny little place where we had Galway bay mussels and it was fantastic. I'll ask Alan if he can remember the name of it. I remember that they didn't have a changing room for the boy, so they opened the private room upstairs so I could change him in private.
Not sure if I have any pictures, I will have a look.
Oh they are nice! Thank you so much for the information.

Residents of Bemidji, Minnesota convinced city council to cease plans to change the name of Stoner Avenue. Apparently the city has vested over $20,000 in the past decade replacing the Stoner Avenue street signs that keep getting stolen by vandals. MSNBC says:
At a public hearing this week Stoner Avenue residents convinced council members to table the issue, complaining that changing the name would be a hassle for the more than 40 property owners who live along the street.
Those residents would be forced to update their drivers license and other important documents and databases.
The city agreed to explore options to make the signs less vulnerable to theft, including using different types of screws or using taller sign posts.
The entire MSNBC article can be found here. I gotta say I'd love to have a Stoner Ave sign in my room. I have a friend that lives on Mary Jane Lane and they have the same problem with street sign theft. I really doubt taller sign posts will help fix the problem. Sorry city council, but it's a kick ass sign.

From the Introduction in Part I, Volume I, by Callimahos: "This text represents an extensive expansion and revision, both in scope and content, of the earlier work entitled 'Military Cryptanalysis, Part I' by William F. Friedman. This expansion and revision was necessitated by the considerable advancement made in the art since the publication of the previous text."
The series consists of several parts, the first two of which have been declassified; the third has so far only been released in such a severely redacted form that it wasn't considered worth publishing on its own. (The unredacted portions repeat material from the first two parts.)
Callimahos referred to parts III-VI at the end of the first volume: "...Part III will deal with varieties of aperiodic substitution systems, elementary cipher devices and cryptomechanisms, and will embrace a detailed treatment of cryptomathematics and diagnostic tests in cryptanalysis; Part IV will treat transposition and fractioning systems, and combined substitution-transposition systems; Part V will treat the reconstruction of codes, and the solution of enciphered code systems, and Part VI will treat the solution of representative machine cipher systems."
Parts IV through VI were contemplated by Lambros D. Callimahos, but not completed before his death.
Both Military Cryptanalytics and Military Cryptanalysis have been subjects of FOIA requests, including one by John Gilmore.
Parts I and II are available from Aegean Park Press. Each part consists of two volumes: the first volume contains the tutorial text and the second volume contains appendices. Part I includes material on both uniliteral and multiliteral ciphers and polyalphabetic ciphers. Part II includes material on repeating-key and bipartite systems and periodic ciphers. Part II, volume II includes the Zendian Problem, a practical exercise in traffic analysis and cryptanalysis.
For the Aegean Park Press edition, Wayne G. Barker added programs for the TRS-80.

Press Releases
Jan 10, 2007
Tampa, FL (Jan. 10, 2007)-- H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute's Cutaneous Oncology Program has been recognized as one of the first top ten Melanoma Centers of Excellence named by the Melanoma Hope Network. The network works to recognize melanoma treatment centers across the United States that offer exceptional care, knowledge and compassion to patients diagnosed with advanced melanoma.
"We are particularly pleased to receive this designation because it recognizes the contributions and collaborations of all the members of the Cutaneous Program - dermatologists, pathologists, surgeons and medical and radiation oncologists – that have to work together in a Melanoma Center of Excellence," said Dr. Vernon Sondak, program leader of the Cutaneous Oncology Program. "We think this is just the beginning of what we can achieve as a group, and the better we work together the better it is for our melanoma patients and our patients with other skin cancers."
The program's comprehensive care at Moffitt includes the latest investigational treatments for melanoma. Program physicians have been pioneers in developing and defining the role of lymphatic mapping and sentinel node biopsy for staging of patients with clinically negative nodes, as well as investigating adjuvant therapy for both node-negative and node-positive patients. Surgical treatment of selected patients with in-transit and metastatic melanoma also is a fundamental part of the approach to patients with more advanced disease.
Moffitt continues to lead the way in melanoma treatment with the recruitment of Dr. Jeffrey Weber from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. The internationally-renowned melanoma medical oncologist, tumor immunologist and clinical and translational researcher will join the Cutaneous Oncology Program in June.
Also, the Cutaneous Oncology Clinic at Moffitt will expand and move to new quarters when the West Clinic expansion is complete. The new facility, specifically designed to meet the needs of melanoma and skin cancer patients, is expected to open in February.
Located in Tampa, Florida on the University of South Florida campus, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute (www.moffitt.org) is the only Florida-based cancer center with the NCI designation as a Comprehensive Cancer Center for its excellence in research and contributions to clinical trials, prevention and cancer control. Moffitt currently has 16 affiliates in Florida, one in Georgia and two in Puerto Rico. Additionally, Moffitt is a member of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, a prestigious alliance of the country's leading cancer centers, and is listed in U.S. News & World Report as one of America's Best Hospitals for cancer. Moffitt's sole mission is to contribute to the prevention and cure of cancer.

Luisita distribution by Sept. doubted
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
An official of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) on Wednesday cast doubt on the government's claim that the vast sugar estate owned by President Aquino's family in Tarlac would be distributed to farmers by September.
Fr. Edwin Gariguez, executive secretary of the CBCP-National Secretariat for Social Action, said the announcement of the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) that Hacienda Luisita would be distributed to its farmer-beneficiaries by August to September should be taken with a grain of salt.
"To see is to believe. With the inefficient track record of DAR in the implementation (of agrarian reform), I hope it happens but I really doubt it will," Gariguez said in an interview.
He explained that the government has yet to adequately address the many concerns raised by Hacienda Lusita farmers.
"Two of my staff members just came from there and (the farmers) still have a lot of concerns. They are not convinced by the management, particularly regarding the list (of beneficiaries), which they are still questioning," Gariguez said.—Philip C. Tubeza

For some reason, I could see you being able to choose what to wear for the contest.
Anyways, I kinda wish that there were contest battles, and the points system is in the background.

Avatar credit is here.
I wish they'd bring them back, and pokeatholons as well. While the other things were nice, there wasn't really any goal to strive for. Contest you got ribbons, and pokeatholons made getting things like stones easy. Though if they do bring back contests I rather they be just the appeal round like Gen III because I didn't really like the other two rounds in Gen IV. And of course a contest battling round would be awesome.

I'm gonna go against the popular opinion here and hope that if contests come back they won't have battles. I feel that contests should be a different animal compared to battles and that the anime only put battles in contests because the people working on the show believed that kids would find them boring otherwise.

I've been waiting for contests to return for a while. Definitely not a fan of Gen IV's contests though, the Gen III ones were so much better.
I'm not really a fan of the contests in the games, but at this point I would not mind playing a contest on a pokemon game in which the pokemon are shown moving on their own when they declare attacks. I don't know how the dancing elements will be performed, since these require very specific movements, and these movements probably won't be implemented for the 600+ pokemon that can be used in these games due to the constrained due date. I can see the move and appeal portions being used for a contest in the Gen 6 games, though.
I don't want Contests. They should bring back the Pokeathlon from Heartgold and Soulsilver, as well as all the minigames from the Joyful Game Corner on Two Island in Firered and Leafgreen version. They could also bring a sidequest that has to do with the Pokemon Trading Card game.
I don't want Contests, I'd much rather see something original. Considering the region is based on France, a Pokemon circus similar to Cirque Du Soleil would be neat.
Not to mention I don't want to see any more contests in the anime. They've done their dash, I couldn't stand to watch another coordinator girl subplot.
I think Contests would make an excellent comeback. With Fantina, Wallace, and Juan as well as other coordinators can make an appearance.
Also, since France is known for fashion and design, I wouldn't be surprised if they included pokemon fashion shows in the game in the Contest category as well. Similar to the dancing game in Contests, you'd have to tap buttons to the music to have your pokemon walk as cute as possible.
Elesa could also appear since she's a model XDD
Blech, I didn't think Contests were that special. I only participated in them for the Ribbons.
I'd rather see something new, something that doesn't require Poffins, Blocks or Shakes to enhance your Pokemon's performance.

While contests werent all that interesting ingame (didnt stop me doing em though) i think that if they make them more like the anime ones they have real potential. Honestly i enjoyed the contests in the anime and how they helped add more to the story and character development. So im selfishly hoping for a return of contests in gen 6 so that they will be in the anime as well :P.
Meh, they're better than those awful Musicals and Movies weren't too bad. I'd want them to pretty much directly copy the anime Contest and have an appeals round with a battle round where the Coordinator's points can be reduced to claim victory or by knock-out. Though that might be little more than a pipedream since it might be too complicated an idea to pull off in the games. Contest spanned two generations and I liked having Contest figures in regular game play compared to Musicals which no one cared about in-game, Wallace, Juan, and Fantina for examples were prominent Contest figures and strong trainers. The Poffin/Pokeblock thing got annoying though, I only really did it because I liked getting ribbons. Something new would be better, plus I'm not sure how I feel about another Coordinator girl to advertise Contest in the anime. I got insanely burned out on the lukewarm DP ones.
I'd much rather something original myself. I didn't like the Movie thing, and the Musicals were alright. I'd rather Contests back than those, but I think it's going to be something French fashion or circus-related.
I've actually really enjoyed all of the extra things like Contests and the Movies and everything. I mean: they're optional if you don't like them, and if you do they're something fun to work on after beating the main storyline! I wouldn't mind seeing all of them included in the upcoming games! Or at least all of them split between the main pair and whatever comes after. Like maybe Contests and Movies in X and Y, and save the Pokéathlon and Musicals for later. That way there's not an overload of the extras in one game, but you can still play with all of them within the same generation.
I would really prefer the RSE Contests over the DPPt ones, though. The number one reason I miss the gen III Contests is that I loved the combination moves - like how using Yawn one round would power up the appeal of Rest in the next. I loved carefully planning out each of my Contest 'mons' movesets!! (`・ω・´)" When the gen IV contests took all of that out I was really disappointed. I don't mind the gen IV additions, I just don't really like them in the actual Contests. (I feel like the rhythm-dance minigame would have fit better in Musicals, so you could actually participate beyond dress-up games...)
My dream-scenario for the gen VI games, under a cut because this post is getting long...
1) Contests more similar to the ones in gen III (minor changes wouldn't be awful - maybe more rounds? an option to participate in co-op contests with two 'mons like in double battles? getting an initial score based on this new "bond" mechanic, whatever it is?)
2) Musicals with more player input: first practicing your 'mons dance routine with a minigame like in the gen IV contests, then dressing it up like in the current Musicals, and finally watching the whole show at the end! New songs would be really easy to give out through DLC (so long as they don't charge...)
3) The Pokéathlon (how is that spelled, again?) returns as a huge post-game arena, maybe with online competitions...? I can see people disconnecting and causing issues with that though...
4) Movies with new titles to fit the new region! It'd be fun to be able to see other people's movies in the theater, and to get to see "foreign" films transferred over from gen V.
What does Cirque du Soleil have to do with France, though? ( ?´_ゝ`)Originally Posted by Winterdaze
Wait, Cirque du Soleil is Canadian!? You learn something new everyday.
A circus would still be better than contests though :P

Well back from the docs. He didn't do a check (which is okay by me I guess - I would hate to be disappointed in any lack of progress really), but he did say that the baby's head has moved right down in the pelvis (is that the same as engaged?). I totally noticed that this morning too- way more pressure, cramping, achy pelvis etc... ao I hope that is a good sign.
I am also overanalyzing toilet paper -anyone else obsessed lately? I think there is a pink tinge to my discharge but maybe it is the lighting in my bathroom? I feel like I did when TTC and trying to see that second line on a pg test! LOL
Chaotic mama to 5 plus a bonus one on the way.

A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx

While black women continue to find chart success by dippin' it low, Scott conjures up more introspective and literary worlds. I've always maintained that her scenographic detail and narrative economy put her in a league with a songsmith like Suzanne Vega, and anyone wanting proof should check out her slice-of-life ode to kinship (and the O'Jays), "Family Reunion": "Niecie made her famous potato salad/Somehow it turns out green/Maybe it's all the scallions/Could be the celery." On "Rahsool," a morality tale about urban violence, Scott spares no detail in describing her title character, down to his "bubble goose" jacket and "car'mel complected" skin. Two things prevent her music from becoming cerebral, however: the immediacy of her big-band projection, equal parts Shirley Bassey (minus the vinegary camp) and Minnie Riperton (minus the dog whistles), and her willingness to ground her sensibilities in the everyday honesty of the blues.
Her musical collaborators are mostly the usual Philly suspects (the Roots' James Poyser, A Touch of Jazz) bearing the expected jazz-hop grooves. But there are fewer hooks to go around this time; the soundscapes are more chilled-out, ambient even. Since D'Angelo, neo-soul metronomes have been locked to the draggy PCP-inspired funk tempos for which Sly holds the patent 30 years later, and like her peers, Scott would benefit from shapelier, upbeat grooves. Beautifully Human offers little follow-up on the jolting thrill of her 2002 single "Gimme," a refreshingly adventurous '80s synth-funk throwback. One of the few tracks that fire her up here is "Golden," a minor-chord disco thumper so exuberantly jazzy you half expect Masters at Work and Roy Ayers to take cameos. Between albums, some of Scott's most compelling releases have been the handiwork of house remixers like Jay J Hernandez and Chris Lum, whose skills at digital compression transformed slow jams like "He Loves Me (Lyzel in E Flat)" and "A Long Walk" into inspirational dancefloor anthems. (Strange that it's now DJs who remind us that soul is a feeling, not a tempo.)
But if Beautifully Human runs low on adrenaline, it's no less significant an achievementand no less marketable in the long run. No one has a more sophisticated take on the retro-soul favored by folks relegated to getting their Black Love fixes from Arabesque novels and UPN-9 sitcoms. Downy ballads like "The Fact (I Need You)" reaffirm how artfully Scott's wry intellect elevates simple moments of intimacylike taking a romantic long walkto thought-provoking gravitas, more Richard Linklater than Terry McMillan.
The publicity machines tell us that partner Lyzel inspires her songwriting, and it's his present-absence in the music that renders her matrimonial bliss less cloying and more abstract than that of such hubby-and-wife teams as Ashford & Simpson, Kenny Lattimore & Chante Moore, and Kindred the Family Soul. Beautifully Human isn't quite the conceptual masterpiece it strives to be: Too often, the music falls short of Scott's lyrical brilliance. It's a sure bet, though, over the next Will Smith & Jada Pinkett single.

Virgin Galactic mothership debuts at AirVenture

Article Summary
If Richard Branson turns up somewhere, you can be fairly certain there'll be a photo opportunity attached. But Branson's appearance on Monday at EAA Airventure, the world's largest private air show, was much more than a PR stunt. It also marked the first public flight of Virgin Galactic's "Mothership" Eve, and signaled space tourism is now closer than ever.

Mariners Select LHP David Rollins in Rule 5 Draft
The Mariners selected left-handed pitcher David Rollins from the Houston Astros in the Major League phase of the Rule 5 draft this morning to conclude the 2014 Winter Meetings held in San Diego, California.
Rollins was the 12th player selected in the Major League phase of the Rule 5 Draft.
With this selection, the Mariners 40-man roster is now full (see below). Seattle did not lose any players in the Major League or Minor League phases of the Rule 5 Draft.
Rollins, turns 25 December 21, spent last season with AA Corpus Christi in the Houston Astros organization. He was 3-4 with a 3.81 ERA (33 ER, 78.0 IP) with 77 strikeouts in 27 appearances including 12 starts.
A player selected in the Rule 5 Draft must be kept on the Major League 25-man roster of the drafting team for the entirety of next season, and the selected player must remain active (not on the disabled list) for a minimum of 90 days. If the player does not remain on the Major League roster, he is offered back to the team from which he was selected.
Once a player is selected, he is automatically assigned to his new organization's 40-man roster. Current Mariners LHP Lucas Luetge was a product of the Rule 5 Draft in December 2011 (from Milwaukee).
In parts of four minor league seasons he is 23-16 with a 3.39 ERA (135 ER, 358.2 IP) with 343 strikeouts in 88 games including 64 starts. During his minor league career, he averaged 8.6 strikeouts per nine innings.
Rollins was signed by the Toronto Blue Jays after being selected in the 24th round of the 2011 June Amateur Draft out of San Jacinto College, North Campus (Houston, TX). The left-hander was previously selected twice by the Mariners in the June amateur draft; in the 23rd round of the 2009 draft and in the 46th round of the 2010 draft.
Ironically, Rollins was traded by Toronto to Houston as part of a 10-player trade that saw current Mariners left-hander J.A. Happ go from Houston to the Blue Jays.
Mariners Sign OF Gareth Morgan (No. 74 overall Draft pick)
Welcome to the Mariners family Gareth!
Outfielder Gareth Morgan, the Mariners second selection in last week's MLB Amateur Draft, officially signed with the Mariners this afternoon and will take batting practice with the Major League club.
Morgan, 18, is a 6-foot-4, 220-pound, right-handed hitting outfielder. He has played both right field and center field during his high school career. He is scheduled to report to the AZL Mariners in the Arizona Rookie League.
Gareth is a member of the Canadian Junior National Team, and has also played with the Langley Blaze travel team.
The teams played games against professional minor league clubs in Florida and Arizona during spring training.
Morgan and the Canadian Junior National team recently returned from playing eight games against professional teams in the Dominican Summer League.
Here are a few nice feature stories on Gareth from the Toronto Sun and Rogers SportsNet.

Since finishing his college career in the College World Series, catcher Mike Zunino, the Mariners first-round selection in the 2012 First-Year Player draft, has zigzagged his way around the country accepting all the top college and amateur baseball awards and topped it off with the signing of his first professional contract with Seattle on July 3. After attending the 83rd annual MLB All-Star Game at Kansas City's Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday, Zunino is back in Washington to begin his professional career in the Mariners organization.
Zunino will be in uniform tonight with the Mariners Short-A affiliate the Everett AquaSox, but is not expected to make his professional debut in the starting lineup until Friday. After an off-day yesterday, Everett returns to action at Everett Memorial Stadium for a 5-game series vs. Tri-City tonight starting at 7:05 pm. The AquaSox currently sit atop the Northwest League West division with an 18-7 record and a 3.5 game lead over the Vancouver Canadians.

A Few Questions With Mike Zunino
The Mariners No. 1 draft pick Mike Zunino was introduced to the media today in a news conference at Safeco Field.
Here are some video highlights from his introductory news conference:
Mike also took some time to answer fan questions as part of Twitter Tuesday. You can get a glimpse of some of the questions he answered via the hashtag #AskZunino.
We also had a chance to catch up with Mike ask him a few questions for the blog…
Any significance behind wearing #3?
Actually, it was just a number I wore growing up and I kind of stuck with it. When I got to high school, a pretty good player named Casey Coleman (who pitches for the Chicago Cubs) wore #3 already, so I ended up taking #17. When I got to Florida, #17 was taken, so I went back to #3.
You've won a lot of awards lately, which one may end up on your mantle in 20-30 years?
Oh man, the Johnny Bench Award is probably the one that is most special to me because it is just for catchers. But, I like all of them. Maybe I'll just have to get a bigger mantel.
What is the most memorable game of your college career?
There were a lot between the College World Series and all the SEC rivalries, but probably the Friday night game at LSU during my sophomore season. We were down 3-2 heading into the 9th inning and I hit a game-tying home run and we went on score a few more runs to win the game. We ended up sweeping the series, which is pretty tough to do at their stadium, and their fans gave us a standing ovation. It was unreal.
What is your favorite cereal?
Probably Captain Crunch…or maybe Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I love both.
Who is your favorite Mariner?
I would have to go with Ken Griffey Jr. I am a little young to remember his prime years, but me and all of my friends would always play his video game on Nintendo 64. We would copy his swing in the backyard. I hope I get to meet him sometime soon.
You've been in Seattle for a few days. What have some of your favorite sights been?
We ate dinner at the Space Needle, and that was pretty cool. I am really enjoying the weather so far. It is a nice break from all the humidity in Florida. Safeco Field is awesome, and my family said Pike Place Market was pretty cool. I hope to explore more of the city when I come back.
Do you wear a 2-piece catcher's mask or the hockey-style mask?
I've always worn a 2-piece catcher's mask. I guess I am just old-school. I've tried the other, but nothing feels better.
What will your first purchase be now that you are a professional baseball player?
A car, definitely a car. My fiancé and I are in a little debate whether to get a Tahoe or Expedition.
Who do you think you pattern your game after?
I would love to be compared to a guy like Yadier Molina, who is a true catch-and-throw catcher. I don't know, maybe someone like Buster Posey. I pride myself on being an all-around baseball player.
Who is the pitcher you would like to face in the Majors?
I would love to face Jered Weaver. Hopefully I'll get the chance to face him a few times a year as they are in the same division as Seattle. He is really good and fun to watch. It would be fun to get to catch Felix Hernandez. I am excited to watch him pitch tonight.
Who was your favorite player growing up?
I really liked Jeff Conine when he was with the Marlins. My parents said he was the first player I got an autograph from, so maybe that is why.
Here are some additional video highlights of Zunino, including Mike accepting the Johnny Bench Award last week in Wichita:

100th Day of School
I have lived in San Antonio all my life. I graduated from the University of Texas in Austin and taught in the San Antonio Independent School District for eight years. I stayed home to raise my family, and returned to teaching after my children were in middle school. I've been teaching at Thornton since the fall of '92. I love what I do and I look forward to teaching Kinder for many more years.
