Online Islamic Studies Degree Program Options
Found very rarely at the master's degree level, online programs in Islamic studies are typically geared to pastors and other Christian scholars who wish to develop their skills in diplomacy and apologetics for missionary work.
Essential Information
Online degree programs in Islamic or Muslim studies are quite rare, and those that are available are offered at the master's degree level. While some of these programs can be completed fully online, others are hybrid programs with a curriculum that blends classroom and distance learning coursework.
Students should know that online Islamic studies programs are usually designed for religious leaders or scholars, often of Christian background, who would like to expand their knowledge of other religions. Students who would like to enroll in a broader, more holistic Islamic studies program may want to look into campus-based programs, which are usually offered at the graduate level.
Online Master's Degree in Islamic Studies Overview
Many Islamic studies programs are offered as a supplement to a broad, Christian-based theological training. Students in these programs typically study Islam to gain a more thorough knowledge of the Islamic faith to aid their future missions.
Program Information and Requirements
Setup for Islamic studies programs at the master's level varies from purely distance-based education to hybrid programs that require at least 50% of the courses to be taken on-campus. Students enrolling in this program should have a bachelor's degree, preferably in historical theology, biblical languages or other Christian studies. The online portion of the program engages students through e-mail and online discussion groups, with assignments submitted electronically.
List of Common Islamic Studies Courses
The course load at this degree level typically covers Islamic culture in the context of a broad theological core. Islam is studied from historical, religious and geographic perspectives.
New Testament Course
This class delves deeply into the latter books and lessons of the Christian Bible. The New Testament is typically part of the Islamic studies general requirements.
Old Testament Course
Starting with Genesis, this class covers the oldest books of the Bible. Students will study the writings from a Christian perspective, but the course will act as a foundation for Islamic apologetics.
Introduction to Islam Course
This class begins to discuss the Islamic faith, including the roots of the religion and its holy book, the Qu'ran.
Islamic Societies Course
This course is a historical and modern analysis of different Islamic nations throughout the world, particularly in the Middle East. Topics will include the role Islam plays in those societies and the history of Islam in the regions under study.
Career Information for Graduates
Graduates from a master's degree program are typically suited for missionary roles in Islamic societies. An Islamic studies degree gives Christian students the apologetics and linguistic skills necessary to increase their understanding of the Islamic faith. Many students who plan on pursuing doctoral research in theology will use a master's degree in Islamic studies as a stepping stone to that level.

No longer limited to life within a single BattleMech, gamers take on the role of a full-fledged human pilot, able to pick and choose from a roster of combat vehicles including Tanks, Vertical TakeOff and Landing craft (VTOLs), BattleArmor and of course, BattleMechs. The proper choice of vehicles is key to successfully completing the wide variety of missions in the game and defeating the opposition. Solo gamers will find the single-player campaign is now significantly richer; with a deeper storyline, NPC interaction and missions delivered on the fly.

3 Tips for a Complete & Thorough Scope
Posted on April 5, 2014
While we often say that the colonoscopy is the "gold standard" when it comes to colon cancer screening, no test is perfect. But colonoscopy still offers the most effective screening option.
A recent study by the Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah found that about 6% of colon cancers are diagnosed within three to five years after a patient receives a clean colonoscopy. Read more

If the laughs take a backseat to the libations for you, NIGHTINGALE BAR (213 Second Avenue, 212-473-9398) won't disappoint on Thursdays, when comedy begins at 7 p.m. during happy hour (5 to 8 p.m.). Heckled Girl (yours truly) and her Heckled Date enjoyed a by-the-books cosmo and a Red Stripe lager for the bargain price of $7, but paid for it dearlyproximity to the stage and a sparse crowd made them easy targets. The word "crowd" isn't even appropriate: As the night wore on (and on and on), it turned out that most of the audience members in the trendy lounge were in the show. A couple of the seemingly amateur performers were legitimately funny, though the emcees should have left the jokes to the comics. The atmosphere livened a little toward the end (which was barely in sight after two hours), with the occasional drinker stopping by, but by then, even some of the show's own had hightailed it out of there.
In search of a cure for a bad case of the Mondays, Heckled Girl headed to CHETTY RED (28 East 23rd Street, 212-254-6727) for its weekly cover-free comedy show. The significantly older and more corporate clientele was already semi-sloshed by the time the comics came on at 8:30probably due to the two-for-one drink special from 5 to 8 p.m.but most of them stayed for the shenanigans, creating a lively, mixed crowd. The lounge's red mood lighting is true to its name, and the friendly bartenders served up $6 Heinekens with a smile while encouraging patrons to lower their voices during the acts. The lineup consisted of professional comics from networks like NBC and Comedy Central, who touched on a range of inevitably funny topics, including Iraq, baby pictures, cripples, and low self-esteem, and Heckled Girl and her posse left their cushy chairs with stomachaches from the deadly combo of laughter and beer.
For those seeking to drown their sorrows by poking fun at the misfortunes of others, there's always open-mic night. But beware: "Do Whatcha Like" Tuesdays at B3 (33 Avenue B, 212-614-9755) won't give you the chance to mock and snicker. Almost all of these amateurs are funny, especially the host, Roman, the most crowd-pleasing emcee Heckled Girl encountered in her travels. B3's cozy basement lounge, with its tucked-away bar serving $4 Bud bottles, fills with an enthusiastic crowd on both Tuesdays and Wednesdays, when comedienne Becky Donohue hosts a professional stand-up show. But B3's best feature is its one-stop-shopping status: You can stop by upstairs for happy-hour drink specials from 5 to 7 p.m., enjoy a phenomenal two-course prix fixe meal with wine for $9.99 (!) until 7:30 p.m., and then head downstairs to the lounge for some laid-back good times. Tips from Heckled Girl for remaining heckle-free around the city? Toss back a couple more drinksat least then, heckling back will seem like a good idea.

The Apple iPhone 5C released in September 2013 to the United States and Europe. It was done so to ensure that the iPhone will be able to capture the market of those particular places before they could make an entry into many other countries.
As for the design, it has the same candy bar design that Apple iPhones have become famous for. It is not to say that the design has become explicative, but rather sticking to the same design and enhancing it for the betterment of the people has to be the main point of the Apple iPhone. So, you can expect the same design in this new mobile.
As regards to the display that you can find in your Apple iPhone 5C, it has a 4 inch screen, with a healthy pixel ratio of 640 X1136. Moreover, you also get a pixel density of 326, which is definitely on the high-end for any multimedia work to be done within the mobile phone. Also, multi-touch facilities are present within the iPhone, and you also have LED backlit IPS LCD display, along with the capacity to touch screen and the support of 16 million colours. All of these can greatly enhance overall feasibility of the Apple iPhone to the general public.

The support of the latest operating system is only indicate that you will be able to get the best out of such software, and all your applications will be able to run without having to face any sort of problems.
As for the amount of money that you need to pay in order to purchase the mobile phone, it is in the tune of $ 737.99. This is the best thing that you can possibly do with your mobile phone.
I have this phone and it is quite decent, it has a good memory capacity even though the memory available runs out very quickly if you use the phone careless or Inappropriately. It has a better ability to counteract blurr on pictures as it occurs. As with other apple products, certain aspects of the phone can be restrictive I.e what it allows you you to do. The phone doesn't brake all too easily, which I have recognised through experience( dropping it. Overall I would rate this phone 8/10 and would say it is definitely in the top 5 phones out right now. I think that it's main contenders are a few htc phones like the one and the sony z1 and z1 compact because they have their own different and unique, alternatives to offer. Even though Apple don't sell cheap phones they sure do have a valid reason for not selling their smart phones for a cheap price

COLLEGE STATION (June 11, 2013)—A different kind of celebration is planned this week for the 89th birthday of former President George H.W. Bush of Houston.
Visitors to Bush's presidential library in College Station are being urged to wear "exuberant socks" on his birthday Wednesday.
In recent years, bush has taken to wearing colorful socks in public.
Officials with the George Bush Presidential Library Foundation also want people with outlandish socks to post photos online.
Select pictures will be sent to the 41st president.
A Bush spokesman said Tuesday that the former president will celebrate with his family in Kennebunkport, Maine.
Bush's wife, Barbara, turned 88 on Saturday and relatives are marking both birthdays.
Bush spent nearly two months in a Houston hospital for treatment of bronchitis-related cough before he was discharged in January.

HARROGATE, Tenn — The Lincoln Memorial University softball team has added four players in the early signing period for the 2015 season, as Savannah Couch, Ashlea Hunter, Cydney Jenkins and Brianna Taylor have committed to continue their softball careers with the Lady Railsplitters, LMU Head Softball Coach Natalie Layden announced on Tuesday.
Savannah Couch - Catcher/Shortstop/Third Base
Couch is set to join the Lady Railsplitters after a standout career at Colonial Heights High School in Colonial Heights, Va. A versatile defender, Couch was named her team's offensive MVP in 2012 and 2013 while earning First Team Academic All-District those same seasons. Along with her stay at Colonial Heights, Couch played travel ball with the NC Lady Blues under head coach Greg Spain.
"Savannah is a versatile defensive player that hits for power and average. I have been impressed with her ability to step up and lead on the field. She will be a great asset to our team and we expect an immediate impact," LMU head coach Natalie Layden said.
Ashlea Hunter - Outfield
Hunter comes to Lincoln Memorial University via Woodruff High School in Woodruff, S.C.. In 2012, Hunter earned All-Region and All-State accolades after leading the Wolverines to a District and Region championship. She was also an All-Region selection following the 2013 campaign. In addition to her work on the field, Hunter has fared exceptionally in the classroom, earning Scholar Athlete recognition in 2011, 2012 and 2013. Hunter was also a member of the Carolina Cardinals Carolina Elite travel ball team that captured the 2013 N.C. State Championship and the Class A National Championship.
"Ashlea is a very athletic outfielder with speed. She played for a very high caliber and successful travel ball organization and we look for her to be strong in our outfield," Layden said.
Cydney Jenkins - Corner Infield/Outfield
Jenkins will make her way to LMU from Florida High School in Tallahassee, where she was team offensive player of the year in 2010, 2011 and 2013. She was a two-time All-Big Bend selection while helping lead her prep team to a third place finish in the 2011 state tournament and a runner-up finish in 2012.
"Cydney is a strong power hitter that is athletic and versatile. I have worked with her in camps since she was a sophomore in high school and she has worked hard in the weight room and cage to get where she is today," said Layden. "She will continue to develop as a defensive player in multiple positions with her strong work ethic."
Brianna Taylor - Pitcher/Second Base
Taylor heads to Harrogate after a successful stay at Chattanooga School of Arts and Sciences. A native of Ooltewah, Tenn., Taylor was an All-District 5A selection in both 2012 and 2013. In 2013, she played a primary role in CSAS winning the regular season District 5A championship, earning runner-up distinctions in the district tournament and making the the first appearance in the region tournament in school history. Taylor also pitched and played second base for the Chattanooga Force Gold travel ball team, which finished in the top 35 at the 2013 ASA Gold Nationals.
"Bri is a high quality pitcher that will bring a lot of great talents to our team. She's a person of high character and she possesses leadership qualities that are positive to the team atmosphere. She has a great presence on the mound. She does a great job of hitting her spots and mixes pitches effectively. I am excited to see her growth and development through her college career," Layden said.
The Lady Railsplitters enter the 2014 campaign — the second season under Layden's direction — after compiling a 30-22 overall mark in 2013. Lincoln Memorial made a 12-win improvement from the 2012 campaign.

If you haven't read Part 1, you can find it here: http://www.giantbomb.com/profile/splatteredbloodsouls/blog/blog-2-music-big-in-2014-part-1-tool/105118/
In Part 2 of this ongoing blog I will be talking about another of my favorite artists who I know will have a new release in 2014.
Mastodon. One of the bands that have stood out for me over the last 5+ years are set to bring out their sixth studio album. There is still no date or name for it but having read interviews, I am excited for more great music and hopefully .
What do you mean, return to form? you might say to me.
I would tell you that it reads as it's supposed to.
I wasn't the biggest fan of THE HUNTER (Mastodon's most recent record) save for a handful of tracks. It had it's moments but I didn't care for some of these popular new songs. Songs like "Curl of the Burl", "Creature Lives" and "Octopus Has No Friends" grew old not long after the initial 10 or 11 listens. It didn't add up. Not after the album Crack The Skye which I had virtually lived in for a good couple of years. I was amazed at that piece of work both musically and artistically. It was the whole package. I even saw them perform it twice in full.
You often find when a band hits such a high point, there is a possibility that they can't go further or must change direction. I didn't have that feeling with Mastodon, I felt they could keep pulling great ideas out the hat. That was until I heard THE HUNTER in full.
I was blown away at first listening to the new offering but some of the songs began to get really old really fast and now that they have written and introduced that kind of song, songs like -- "Creature Lives" and "Curl of the Burl" -- I expect that this kind of Mastodon song will carry on in future Mastodon records.
It is of course only my opinion and I now that "Creature Lives" is and was well received by many fans and critics. I know It was a nod to classic movies such as Creature from the Black Lagoon, which the band have stated time and time again how much they love it. Personally I think the track is . Maybe I misjudged the band. Maybe I am being to harsh.
I also had issue with how proud they seemed of it. In the end I was disappointed in the direction this album took the band but...
...it wasn't all bad.
I absolutely loved opener "Black Tongue" which had a similar impact on me that "Oblivion" had as opener on Crack The Skye. It is one of my favorites from any Mastodon album. Other highlights for me were, "Bedazzled Fingernails" with its tempo shifts and cool bass guitar hooks, elsewhere, "Thickening", "Spectrelight" and "Stargasm" all showed special moments and I guess a new direction that I was happy with to some extent.
For most bands having five or six really good songs on an album would have been enough but as I mentioned before, Crack The Skye was from start to finish a perfect piece of music and you kind of expect that theme to continue. Maybe that is asking too much? Probably.
Talking of theme's
Mastodon have been known for making concept albums. It wasn't until THE HUNTER when they decided to make an album that was "just a collection of rocking rock songs". In a way that explains the change and why it didn't work for me. I didn't want the straight up rock songs but instead of taking a break they wanted to do something and that something just happened to be THE HUNTER. It's release will have pleased some people, old fans and new, but I also know there were plenty of fans who wanted them to stick with what they have been good at for so long
I have read quotes from the band that this new album will be a mixture of all the Mastodon records, so I am expecting the heaviness of the first three albums, along with the progressive nature of the fourth and my hope is that they relegate songs like "Curl of The Burl" and "Creature Lives" from the fifth album to the bottom of the ocean. LOL. I'm serious!
Conclusion of Part 2
I can't see the new album being disappointing but I do expect a few fillers and some of THE HUNTERS influence getting into the idea's machine which is to be expected I guess. I can't wait anyway.

LONDON (ICIS)--BASF has started up a €14m ($19m) combined heat and power (CHP) plant at its chemical production site in Lampertheim in Germany's Hessen state, the Germany-based international chemicals major said on Wednesday.
BASF said that the plant would help reduce production costs and raise the international competitiveness of the Lampertheim site, where the company mainly produces and distributes additives for synthetic materials and coatings, as well as preliminary products for sun glare filters.
The site, around - 20km north of BASF's petrochemicals production hub at ?xml:namespace>
"The new CHP plant will make an important contribution to further developing BASF's operations in Lampertheim," said site manager Werner Regenberg.
BASF did not disclose the plant's capacity.
A number of German chemical producers, including Merck, Evonik and K+S have built, or are planning to build, on-site power units to increase their competitiveness and counter the country's high electricity costs.

When the Federation of State Medical Boards recently adopted its first-ever policy guidelines for telehealth, the fundamental principle stated that providers must establish credible patient-clinician relationships—the same as they would for face-to-face encounters.
This should remind us that despite technological advancements that allow life-saving medical treatment from five miles or five thousand miles away, telehealth—like health care itself—is still mainly about people. Whether the patient and clinician are sitting together in an exam room or talking to each other via video screen, the personal relationship they establish is paramount.
The expansion of telehealth is gaining velocity. Analysts predict the global telehealth market will be more than $27 billion by 2016, tripling in growth since 2010. Legal roadblocks are being dismantled while incentives are growing. Nearly two dozen states already have passed laws mandating parity in reimbursements for telehealth the same as for in-person visits. Other states have similar legislation pending.
Meanwhile, healthcare providers are launching initiatives to expand telehealth uses for consumers, particularly to expand the reach of specialists to underserved areas, such as rural and inner city clinics, emergency departments and ICUs. In suburban St. Louis, Mercy Health, a four-state provider with 32 acute care hospitals and 700 outpatient facilities, has launched development of a $50 million, 120,000-square-foot telemedicine center. It will be staffed by nearly 300 physicians, nurses, and others who will deliver services to patients throughout the region, including large rural areas. The center expects to provide about 3 million telehealth visits within five years.
This type of facility is a harbinger of the future telehealth marketplace. It highlights the fact that telehealth programs, while alleviating clinical labor supply challenges, are still entirely dependent upon physicians and clinical support staff who are dedicated to delivering those services. Staffing a robust telehealth program may require more than just plugging in clinicians from a providers' existing core staff of physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, and physician assistants.
Recently, a major health system implemented a telehealth program to provide specialty care to rural facilities within its network. The technology and equipment was purchased, tested, and ready to go. On the first day of service, a remote patient case was referred to the central facility for a specialty consult. But the on-call specialist would not take the case. As it turned out, most of the on-call panel declined to take remote cases. Why? Follow-up interviews identified that the physicians were concerned about insufficient training for providing telehealth services, lack of support, and potential disruptions in their on-site clinical workflow. Clearly, installing the right technology wasn't enough. A prepared workforce is a necessity.
Many roles are unique to telehealth, requiring specially trained staff to perform them. Of course, telehealth program managers must be expert in the development and operations for the clinical, logistical, and technical aspects of telehealth. These and other roles can't necessarily be filled by core staff who are simply shifted over to telehealth.
The same is true for many telehealth clinical roles. A referring clinician at the patient site acts as gatekeeper to identify patients who are suitable for telehealth services and then makes the referral to the appropriate telehealth specialty practitioner. A patient presenter works on the patient side of the video screen, providing clinical and technical assistance during the examination. The patient presenter helps interpret directions from the clinician to the patient and then reports back on patient status, while also participating in education, discharge, and coordination of care.
Not all clinicians are ready to embrace telehealth. Some are simply skeptical about the approach's effectiveness and about the ability to create a physician-patient relationship through a video screen. However, other clinicians are enthusiastically embracing telehealth to find new ways to reach a wider patient population.
Like other healthcare delivery programs, telehealth will be impacted by supply and demand issues for clinical staff. Physician shortages are the reality of our industry's future. The Association of American Medical Colleges projects a shortage of more than 90,000 physicians by 2020. In addition, half of hospital executives said in a recent AMN Healthcare survey that shortages also exist for nurse practitioners and physician assistants. Meanwhile, the patient population is growing due to the aging of America (seniors utilize much more health care than 20- and 30-year-olds), and to healthcare reform, which will eventually sign up approximately 30 million more people for public and private insurance coverage.
Because it can effectively extend the clinical workforce, telehealth is clearly part of the solution to the twin challenges of a growing patient population and shortages of clinicians. But healthcare systems remain challenged to meet the growing demand for high-quality clinicians with telehealth experience and the right "can-do" enthusiasm to achieve the promise of telehealth services. Telehealth success is still all about the people.

The final whistle for the full time sounds and Mexico have won a tough game 1-0. They were short-changed by poor umpiring in the first half but came back via a timely goal from Peralta. They held most of the possession and also showed more discipline in the second half.
90 + 2' Hernandez misses as he blazes over the goal from close range
90' Header from Moukandjo is met with a diving stop by the Mexico keeper Ochoa, that was close
88' Cameroon are desperate for a late equaliser here, they keep Mexico to their penalty area, but the game is slipping away
86' Almost a goal! Moukandjo is released into the right side of the right side of the Mexico area and hits a powerful ball into the danger area towards Eto'o, but Rodriguez crucially intercepts it.
84' Giovani curls a cross into the centre and Hernandez almost gets his head to it, but Cameroon manage to make the save
82' Mexico grab possession again, Hernandez cuts a pass for Fabian and Mexico are back playing an aggressive game
80' Cameroon win a corner down the left flank, but can make nothing of it.
79' Pierre Achille Webo is substituted for Alex Song
77' Dany Nounkeu gets a yellow card. That was a ridiculous tackle from him, takes out Fabiab very casually on Mexico's left wing
74' Hernandez has fallen hugely out of favour over the last year, but he gets a chance now
74' Javier Hernandez gets substituted for Peralta
65' Samuel Eto'o seeks medical attention. He seemed to collide with Marquez, but he looks fine
63' That was well deserved for Mexico, after having two goals disallowed earlier.
61' O Peralta gets the first goal for Mexico. Peralta starts the brilliant team move from a deep position and after Giovani breakls into the area, Peralta pounces on the rebound to break the deadlock.
54' Hector Moreno gets a yellow card
52' Mexico have been much more disciplined in the second half.
50' Song lunges wildly and catches Giovani on the shin, taking him down. Song is lucky to escape a booking.
Two #WorldCup2014 matches, 2 shocking sets of officials. Mexico and Dos Santos getting the "Croatia treatment" here. #MEXvsCAM
— Andyyyy (@Autographz) June 13, 2014
48' Another let-off for Cameroon. Peralta produced a dangerous run to charge on to Giovani's flicked pass, but he could only fire straight at Itandje.
Substitution: Dany Nounkeu for Cedric Djeugoue
The second half is about to get underway, with both teams at 0-0.
HALF-TIME Mexico have generally been the better side and they will be bitterly disappointed not to take a lead into the break, but that has as much to do with the officials. Giovani has had two goals harshly disallowed. Cameroon will have to seriously improve their game in the second half.
45' Mexico have been denied a penalty. A clumsy tackle by Chedjou on Giovani is not considered for a penalty, only for a corner.
43' Mexico are back controlling most of the possession. They quickly work the ball forward towards the attack but get stopped by Herrara.
39' M'Bia dashes into the side of Guardado, crashing his forearm into his face, and very nearly gets a yellow card.
37' Mexico's dominance of possession has slipped a little in the last 10 minutes or so, with Cameroon seeing a lot more of the ball in the midfield.
The rain is continuing to power down in Natal
30' Another goal disallowed. Choupo-Moting flicked on a Mexico corner and Giovani nodded the ball in at the far post, but once again the assistant raises his flag for offside. However, replays clearly show the Villarreal man was in a legal position.
24' Choupo-Moting knocks a header back in towards the goal, but his effort hit a team-mate and the defenders eventually cleared after a bit of a scramble.
22' Great chance for Eto'o! Assou-Ekotto produced a lung-busting run down the left flank, evading the challenges of two Mexicans before cutting an accurate low cross. Eto'o met the delivery with a scuffed first-time effort which narrowly went wide.
20' Vazquez gets penalised for a high-boot in the centre circle, but no card from the referee
18' Great tackle by Moreno to stop Samuel Eto'o attack towards the Mexican penalty area
15' The officials are not doing Cameroon any favours, but out of nowhere, M'Bia wins a corner down the right for the team
Mexico have been aggressive but their delivery has been poor
12' Offside! Mexico thought they'd taken the lead. Aguilar fires in a teasing cross from the right and Giovani coolly smashes a volley past Itandje, but it is ruled out for offside. Replays suggest it was a harsh decision. Giovani is not happy at all
10' Cameroon are really struggling for possession at the moment
9' Mexico are already forcing the Cameroon defence into errors
Cameroon's gameplan already appears rather obvious as both Enoh and M'Bia have produced forceful tackles in the middle.
The whistle has sounded and the match is underway.
Wilmar Roldan is the referee for the match
Manchester United forward Javier Hernandez has, as expected, not been included in Herrera's starting line-up
The national anthems are now over, it's time for the match.
Given the format of the group stage, this match is crucial for both teams.
The national anthems are now underway.
The two teams are out to the middle for the national anthem
Live action is set to begin shortly
Cameroon subs: Feudjou, Nounkeu, N'Guemo, Aboubakar, Makoun, Bedimo, Webo, Olinga, Salli, Matip, Nyom, N'Djock.
Cameroon (4-3-3): Itandje; Djeugeoue, N'Koulou, Chedjou, Assou-Ekotto; Song, M'bia, Enoh; Moukandjo, Eto'o, Choupo-Moting.
Mexico subs: Corona, Salcido, Reyes, Fabian, Jimenez, Pulido, Talavera, Hernandez, Ponce, Brizuela, Aquino, Pena.
Mexico (5-3-2): Ochoa; Aguilar, Rodriguez, Marquez, Moreno, Layun; Vazquez, Herrera, Guardado; Gio Dos Santos, Peralta.
Cameroon coach Volker Finke has not made any surprising choices in his starting XI and with the likes of Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Stephane M'Bia, Alex Song and Eto'o, they have plenty of experience.

The lineup for the Mexico-Cameroon match, which begins at 9:30 pm IST, has been announced.
Team lineup for Mexico v/s Cameroon
Not only did Cameroon have to overcome another African World Cup giant in the form of Tunisia to make the cut for the 2014 World Cup finals, they also had to settle what their coach called 'primary school squabbles' within the ranks too. The team boasts a superstar in four-time African player of the year Samuel Eto'o and the brooding goal-king had claimed there was a plot to isolate him by starving him of passes in the first leg of their play-off, a 0-0 draw in Tunis.

Undergraduate students Hayden Donze and Adrian Iniguez, both 23, have ambitious career plans.
Donze wants a job comparable to Peter Norvig's. He's director of research at Google Inc. Iniguez wants to build the spaceships that will mine natural resources on asteroids.
They both plan to get doctoral degrees. For now, they lead brain-computer interface projects at Cal State Fullerton.
Donze demonstrates. He puts on a headset that allows him to play a video game on a PC without using his hands. The wireless headset doesn't "read" his mind. Rather, the 16 electrodes detect electrical signals in his brain. Software interprets his brain wave data.
If a player is bored, frustrated or agitated, the game can adapt to the player, Donze said. "It takes a lot of data processing to get there." The software has to be trained to associate the brain wave patterns with the player's intentions.
Specifically, Donze is developing "middleware" that software companies, such as Santa Monica-based Riot Games, can use to make games for the headset. The middleware would connect the headset software to a game.
Brain-computer interface, or BCI, has been around for decades, but interest in the technology has significantly grown in recent years, Donze said. It holds the promise of eliminating input methods such as joysticks, mice, touch screens and keyboards.
The consumer BCI headsets, which can be bought online, are still in their infancy. There are two dominant companies that make BCI headsets for consumers. One is San Jose-based NeuroSky Inc. Donze uses a $300 Epoc headset made by an Australian company, Emotiv Systems.
Donze is using Emotiv's software to build his software.
"We intend to add functionality that is specific to making video games that utilize the headset," he said. "This will give customers a solid framework from which to build their games."
Emulating 'Iron Man'
Iniguez is working on a related project – controlling a mechanical arm using a BCI headset. The mechanical arm, attached to a person's arm, could be used by someone who has lost strength in their arm or has paralysis.
It could be an "Iron Man" kind of thing in the future, he said. You could use your brain to move it, and it could make you 10 times stronger.
The mechanical engineering major is working on a way to control the arm without training the software. For example, wearing the headset, a person could look at a blinking device on the arm to cue the arm to move.
The goal is to have a finished product that someone could use or buy, Iniguez said. "If there was something out there for $200 or $300 that I could control with my brain, I would totally go buy it. It's like comic book stuff right there."

Question about comic book submissions
For anyone who's had experience in comics/graphic novels.
If a submission is accepted by a comics publisher in a graphic novel format, how is the size of the book decided? I'm asking because sometimes I see graphic novels in many different sizes, from digest (5" x 7"), to trade standard (6" x 9"), comic book standard (7" x 10"), oversize editions (8" x 11").
I'm just curious, is all.

Depends on the publisher. Onipress, you'll never see anything bigger than pocketbook size. TPB art standard comic size, and it's only in the recent years do you see Marvel going for digest size for some of their series like spider-girl.
Size = cost per unit being less to produce.

To me this is a universal principle of art. Saying as much as possible with a minimum of means."-John Huston, Director

Make a list of the publishers to which you plan to submit work.
Look up their specs for finished art.
Size your work appropriately before submitting it.
If you cannot find the specs on their websites or by googling, then get out a ruler and measure one of their books and make a template.
Whatever their finished size, you can scale the template up in photoshop to a good working size.
Hope that helps.

PITSBURG - The Pitsburg Church of the Brethren will host the New Dawn Trio at 6 p.m. Sept. 7. This event is open to the public and refreshments will be served following the concert.
The church is located at the west edge of Pitsburg t 8376 Pitsburg-Laura Road.
New Dawn was formed in 2009 when three gospel singers were united by a series of non-related events. Bruce Shank had been singing gospel music for many years with various groups as well as solo. His sister, Dixie Magee, joined him in 2006 and they performed as a duet. In late 2008, Bruce met Larry Hart, and discovered his vocal talents. Larry was asked to join Bruce and Dixie, and the trio, New Dawn, was formed.
The songs they sing speak to the heart – each with its own meaning. They have released two CDs, and perform at churches, fairs, festivals and benefits. (For information, contact Shank at 937-692-5789)

The trend of mixing Asian with Latin-American flavors is on display in this chicken recipe which pairs Thai red curry with Latin corn masa flour. Together they create a vibrant new flavor combination. Photo credit: Adrianna Adarme from A Cozy Kitchen.
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
4 teaspoons McCormick Gourmet™ Curry Powder, Red
1 teaspoon McCormick Gourmet™ Ginger, Ground
1 can (13.66 ounces) Thai Kitchen® Coconut Milk
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons masa harina, (instant corn masa flour)
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup chopped unsalted peanuts
3/4 cup masa harina, (instant corn masa flour)
1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
For the Red Curry Chicken, heat oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken, red curry and ginger; cook and stir 3 minutes or until chicken is browned. Stir in coconut milk, soy sauce and sugar. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through, stirring occasionally. Add masa harina; cook and stir until sauce has thickened slightly. Sprinkle with green onions and peanuts.
For the Masa Dumplings, mix masa harina, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in medium bowl. Using pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk and cheese; stir just until moistened.
Drop 8 to 10 heaping tablespoons of dough, about 2 inches apart, onto simmering curry chicken. Cover. Simmer 25 minutes or until tops of dumplings are dry to the touch.
Test Kitchen Tip: Masa harina is the flour made from dried corn kernels that have been soaked in limewater. It is used to prepare corn tortillas, tamales, pupusas and gorditas. It is available in the Latin, Mexican or baking aisle of supermarkets.

KILMARNOCK, Va., Feb. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Bay Banks of Virginia, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCQB: BAYK), holding company for Bank of Lancaster (the "Bank") and Bay Trust Company, announced net income of $698 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of 99.3% compared to $350 thousand for the prior year. Corresponding basic earnings per share increased to $0.27 in 2012 from $0.13 in 2011. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $262.5 thousand, representing a 12.9% increase from net income of $232.5 thousand for the prior quarter and a 229.0% increase from net income of $79.8 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2011.
- Earnings per basic share was $0.10 for the fourth quarter
- Total classified assets declined $3.4 million in the fourth quarter to $14.3 million
- Nonperforming assets declined $1.3 million in the fourth quarter to $9.0 million
- Other real estate owned ("OREO") decreased $54 thousand in the fourth quarter to $3.2 million
- Provision for loan losses totaled $572 thousand in the fourth quarter and $1.9 million for the year
- The Bank's total risk-based capital ratio was 14.08% and tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.00% at year-end
- Net interest margin averaged 3.63% for the quarter and 3.60% for the year
Return on average equity improved to 2.45% for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to 1.30% for the prior year. Return on average assets improved to 0.22% for 2012 compared to 0.11% for 2011.
Randal R. Greene, President and CEO of Bay Banks of Virginia noted, "after successfully completing a private stock offering on December 31, 2012, which raised $9.35 million, we are excited about the future of our Company. The success of the offering, which was oversubscribed, is because of our focus on core earnings. When non-recurring items are excluded, non-interest income has increased by $797 thousand and non-interest expense has declined by $453 thousand year over year. This is a $1.25 million improvement in earnings before taxes. The non-recurring items are securities gains of $958 thousand in 2012 and $336 thousand in 2011, losses on OREO of $536 thousand more than budget in 2012 and $435 thousand in 2011, an insurance recovery of $217 thousand in 2012 for the defalcation loss of $246 thousand in 2011, fraud investigation and related audit expense of $107 thousand in 2012, severance expense of $133 thousand in 2012, recruitment expense of $41 thousand in 2011, and consulting expense of $185 thousand in 2012 related to earnings enhancement projects."Along with the $958 thousand in gains on sales of securities, these core earnings improvements allowed us to absorb $1.9 million in loan loss provision expense and $736 thousand in losses on foreclosed properties, and still allow the Company to report $698 thousand in net income after taxes for 2012. The additional provision for loan loss expense covered $2.0 million in net charge-offs against the Allowance for Loan Losses, a result of addressing lingering problem loans. With a full year's worth of our earnings enhancements in 2013, we expect continued improvements in earnings." The most notable of the earnings enhancements completed during 2012 include:
- An early retirement offer and a reduction in force which was completed by January 31, 2012, and saved approximately $500 thousand.
- Freezing of the pension plan as of December 31, 2012, which saved approximately $125 thousand in 2012.
- Waiving a contribution to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan in 2012 which saved $75 thousand.
- Renegotiation of the Bank's core system vendor contract, effective August 1, 2012, which saved approximately $151 thousand in 2012
- Addition of key personnel in the residential mortgage lending function who implemented process improvements which increased secondary market lending income by $472 thousand.
