Feel the magic this week. FEEL IT.
By Video_Game_King 19 Comments
And so goes another game in the Humble Indie Bundle. Of course, there are more of those now than there have been people in all of history, so the statement has lost some of its weight, especially when you consider the inclusion of Magicka. Now I'm not calling the game bad.....actually, yea, I sort of am. The core concepts are good, though. Mix and match magic? Good! Arena combat? Good! Combined? Ungood!
Especially given what's framing these two ideas...kind of. Before I get into the negative parts of this blog (otherwise known as "this blog"), let it be known that I like the fantasy atmosphere. It's just really effective at projecting a fairy tale atmosphere. You get some cute, squishy graphics, storybook narrations between chapters, and just about everything you need to put your daughter to sleep. But then comes the humor of the game, which will presumably keep her bouncing off the walls in utter confusion. Wow, what a strange joke. Still funnier than Magicka. At least it wasn't a cultural reference, because that's all you'll get with this game. Not even jokes that engage the material they're referencing to humorous effect. Just references; cue cards with the words "GRIM FANDANGO. LAUGH" written on them, expecting you to laugh without giving any reason why. And this is the best case scenario. Don't get the reference (quite a real risk when you realize how little overlap there is between the Diablo and Aristocats audiences)? Prepare to be even more confused than you were when there were hyperactive little girls jumping through this blog. I think the best example is Vlad, whom the game constantly insists is not a vampire. Why would I assume that in the first place? His accent is the only thing I can go on. Otherwise, I don't have a clue. If it is a reference, I don't know what to. If it isn't, it's just not funny. More forced, really.
Fortunately, you don't come to the game for the humor. I think I outlined the problems with that approach. Instead, it's all about the magic (go to Japan if you want some ka), which, in theory, works just fine. You get 10 elements and 5 slots to put them in. Some quick math indicates that this leaves us.....30000 options. A little less when you consider how some elements cancel out others, but still, not bad. That's certainly enough options to encourage experimentation, and that's not even taking into consideration the different ways you can cast spells. You have weapon buffs, regular spells, armor buffs....no, that's pretty much it. Still, though, that's enough to fuck around with to keep you busy for a long time. Add on top of that a bunch of set spells you find over the course of the game, and the magic system looks reasonably strong and deep. That's the keyword, though: looks. Here's an important question: is there really a reason to explore different spell combinations?
Nope. Not really. Now we begin to see where the core game falls apart. Turns out putting this magic making system into what is essentially an arena fighter ruins both. How can that be? Wasn't Super Smash TV fun? Isn't lighting imps on fire with flaming thunder all kinds of fun? Both of those statements are true. However, these are not two tastes that go well together. Combining all these spells requires patience and thought, two luxuries that you're not going to have when there are twelve goblins chasing you across the screen. Instead, you're going to fall back on spamming whatever spell you found was the most useful at the beginning of the game. (There's no leveling system, so the enemies don't become particularly stronger over the course of the game.) For me, it was some combination of lightning and either ice or fire. The perfect combination of crowd control and stacking damage, all without the strategy the developers were hoping for.
But speaking of crowd control, that's the name of the game:
Magicka crowd control. On this, I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I can certainly see the appeal. There's just something fun and chaotic about having to think on your feet to make sure you're not overwhelmed with enemies. I'd compare it to tower defense, but that's a dumb comparison. On the other hand, there are a ton of enemies, so it's incredibly easy to become overwhelmed at any given time. Yes, you have a sword to whittle down enemies in your immediate vicinity, but unless it can freeze enemies in their place, there's really no point in using it. (There is a sword that can do that. Just want to be clear on that.) With so many enemies that want you dead, you're gonna get caught in a corner, die, and then die again because you couldn't get out of said corner. Temporary invincibility isn't enough, especially since casting a buff of any kind immediately gets rid of it. I suppose it's relevant to mention that I was playing this on single player when the game would have preferred me to play with another human being.
Oh, and I should probably mention that the game's ridiculously bugged. No amount of bug bombs could save it, although I think that's more because I'm thinking of a different kind of bug. It started after installation, when the mouse wouldn't display on full screen. Granted, I planned on changing to windowed mode, regardless, but that's not a good sign. But we can't play the game yet, since the button that lets you do that is having a bad day and needs some down time. The game's good, though, right? It is only if you consider the following good: being trapped in a horrible limbo because the game over screen didn't show. Being resurrected in such a way that you cannot continue the game. Weapons dancing on the ground at the behest of some celestial puppet master who doesn't want you picking up that cool new weapon. Frustrated with all this, I decided to pay attention during the credits, and I didn't see any listings for a debug team or QA guys. Nothing worrying about that, right? And the version I played was after several patches and updates. That should show you the level of confidence the developers had in this game, and how much you should put in it, too.
Review Synopsis
- I'd make a Family Guy joke here, but if anything, the humor is closer to a Friedberg and Seltzer film.
- I very much like magic customization, but I'd like if I had a reason to use it in the first place.
- Also, bugs. So many bugs.
Your previous time transgressions have displeased the gods, Mario. Now you are damned to be frozen in time forever for your avarice, always conscious of the fate to which you have been consigned.
Tentarafoo-la, Wing of Madoola, bippity boppity boo. Put it together and what have you got? The most confusing introduction to a blog I've ever thought up. Certainly not the best way to sell you on this game, and believe me, the game has enough going against it already. Namely, a crappy beginning that's no fun to play. But on the other side of that bad introduction is....well, an average game. Is it worth it? Probably not, but I still liked it.
Again, though, this is in spite of the really bad first few levels. It's like all of the things that eventually make the game fun conspire against the game itself. The combat, for instance, won't do you any favors. For a while, enemies are going to take a few hits to bring down, but sadly, you can only hit one at a time. Too bad those sleeping bag burrito monsters come in groups and infinitely spawn off screen. Thus you are forced to hop over them until you become stronger, and this brings with it two realizations. Realization the first: you move ridiculously slow and can only jump on inch off the ground before you break your shins. The next realization: the levels aren't terribly long. I know that combination sounds contradictory, but skipping over all the enemies makes the levels go by very quickly, even when you find all the little secrets and items and whatnots. It's almost like the developers weren't confident in their level designing capabilities and decided to pit the odds against you so you wouldn't notice. Fortunately, this gets better. Kind of. Straight lines give way to maze-like levels that require some effort to navigate. Unfortunately, if you don't find some necessary upgrades, it's quite easy to get stuck in such a way that you cannot possibly advance.
But only if you don't have enough boots. Once you have two or three of them, every single level turns into a Lunarian moon bounce, thus revealing the game's greatest strength: not the enemies. What? Yea, this is also around the time your weapons become more powerful, but infinite spawns still make them a pain in the ass to be avoided at all costs. The boss fights are pretty cool, though. You fight eggs and dragons and stuff with the power of jumps. Anyway, most of the game's fun lies in the level design. There are just so many nooks and crannies to these things, and the game rewards you heftily for finding them. You get cool weapons and power ups and hell, there's even a chick that gives you a key word for no real reason. What more could you want? Maybe some more variety, as there are only about four types of levels repeated over 16 stages. Still, that's a solid 16 levels of jumping about castles, discovering what you can and can't jump on. Well, a solid 12 levels of jumping about castles, prefaced by 4 dreadful levels of struggling through straight lines and wizard spawns. Is it worth it? That's for you to decide. The perfect metaphor for life!
Review Synopsis
- A very bad start
- gives way to an average game.
- This is a haiku.

HYDERABAD: Government whip S. Sailajanath has appealed to Chief Minister K. Rosaiah for steps to restrain those encroaching lands in violation of Heritage Act and taking up illegal constructions in the vicinity of monuments.
In a representation to the Chief Minister, Mr. Sailajanath demanded that an inquiry be ordered into illegal constructions and encroachments of land near Penugonda fort in Anantapur district by some individuals.
Mr. Sailajanath said the fort had constructions of architectural value including the 'Galigopuram', 'Thimmarusu prison', 'Gagan Mahal', water tank etc. and they were accorded the status of monuments by the Central Archaeology Department. The department had also prohibited new constructions within a radius of 300 yards from the monument.

Bangalore: Two witnesses who deposed before the Kedambadi Jagannath Shetty Commission of Inquiry on Monday defended the police firing in Haveri on June 10, 2008, arguing that it was done to save public property and the lives of 25 policemen in a nearby van.
Dinesh Shetty and Ashok Manjunatha Shetty, owners of two hotels in the area defended the police action.
Mr. Shetty said Choori and Puttappa Honnatti were throwing stones at a KSRTC bus near Magavi petrol station. Bystanders and policemen prevented the miscreants from setting fire to the bus. Had they not opened fire, the miscreants would have burnt the petrol station, buses and the diesel outlet inside the KSRTC depot, he said.
Mr. Shetty said the miscreants were not farmers. When the mob did not heed to the appeals of the Superintendent of Police, the police resorted to lathi-charge and burst teargas shells. The mob beat up a policeman and attacked a police van, injuring the driver. When all attempts to control the mob failed, the police opened fire, killing Choori on the spot.

Michael Claassens scored in Bath's 39-3 win over Leeds on Saturday.
The result sees Bath, who boast South Africans like Claassens, Butch James, Luke Watson and Pieter Dixon in their squad, booking a place in the Premiership play-offs. They will play away at Leicester.
The Tigers were beaten 32-23 by a determined Saracens team. Schalk Brits scored an intercept try for Sarries, and the win means Brendan Venter's side will play Northampton in the semi-finals.


text: I don't know about Bronica. I have a Hasselblad 2000FC and a 500ELM (which I haven't used yet). I love the 2000FC, but know that one slip and the shutter is gone. So it depends on how much cheaper the 2000FC is compared to the 500c/m. If I were buying, I'd get the 500c/m. As far as Bronica vs Hasselblad goes, I love my Hasselblad.

One pitch enough to rock Peavy
Ace allows his first grand slam in setback
SAN FRANCISCO – Jake Peavy has had many memorable firsts in his career.
Last night he had one he'd just as soon forget.
In the bottom of the fourth, with the Padres clinging to their second one-run lead of the night, Peavy served up the first grand slam of his career.
The honor went to Giants shortstop and No. 8 hitter Edgar Renteria, who reached the seats in left at AT&T Park beyond the leap of Padres left fielder Chase Headley to lead the Giants to an 8-3 victory in the opener of a two-game series.
Peavy had gone 1,284 1/3 innings before allowing a grand slam.
Among active pitchers who have yet to give up a grand slam, according to the Elias Sports Bureau, only Houston's Brian Moehler had a longer streak (1,360 innings).
"One pitch, that's been a recurring theme of mine," said Peavy, who gave up a total of six earned runs – for the first time since the Oct. 1, 2007 wild-card playoff game in Colorado – with Renteria figuring in all six of them.
"It was a cutter. I wanted to run it out of the zone and get a ground ball. Instead I ran it down the middle, an 88-mile an hour fastball."
Renteria turned on the first pitch he saw from Peavy after Giants first baseman Travis Ishikawa had battled back from being down in the count to draw a walk.
"I can't make a pitch like that with the pitcher on deck," continued Peavy. "I'm going to get better. I'm not that far off. But one pitch.
"It was that way in my first start (a two-run single by James Loney) and on that pitch to (Carlos) Delgado in my last start (a two-run homer)."
"It just goes to show you how one pitch can change the complexion of the game," said Padres manager Bud Black. "Overall, his stuff was good. That one pitch got him."
And Renteria got Peavy three times over the course of six innings.
Renteria also scored the Giants' first run after singling and drove home the sixth and final run against Peavy in the sixth. Renteria finished 3-for-3 against Peavy and equaled his career high with five RBI. Over his career, Renteria is hitting .455 (10-for-22) against Peavy.
"Edgar is a great hitter," said Peavy. "He has good numbers off me. But it's been all singles."
The grand slam was Renteria's first extra-base hit against Peavy.
"He's probably not off to the start he wants," said Black of Renteria. "But he has a pretty good track record. He was the difference tonight. And Ishikawa had a good at-bat in front of him, fouling off some pitches and drawing the walk."
At the time of Renteria's grand slam, the Padres were holding a 2-1 lead thanks to a bizarre play in the top of the fourth.
After Adrian Gonzalez and Chase Headley opened the inning with consecutive singles, Kevin Kouzmanoff hit a booming drive high off the wall at the 365-foot sign in right.

It's not.
It's not the end of the world, it's disappointing but at the end of the day it doesn't make as much difference as some of the kids on here claim. Yeah it's noticeable, but whatever.
This is similar to how gamers have been shown to have superior reaction times compared to the average person. We flex those "muscles" and thus improve them in ways your average person just never really does.

The fact that he doesn't care much about framerates above 30fps definitely casts a shadow of doubt on his ability to assess other technical details. I especially love how the article called attention to the fact that he has a Ph.D. as if that makes him any more of an authority on the matter than the average gamer. Hint: it doesn't.
I do however think he's generally right about the fact that framerate is decided upon early in development and other technical aspects are manipulated to maintain that target. But it's also true that many developers don't abide by this and willingly choose to sacrifice framerate for prettier visuals or more stuff on the screen. I even remember the GoW devs talking about a scene where they knew throwing a lot of enemies on the screen would cause the framerate to tank, but they did it anyway because they thought more enemies was awesome.

Life Scientist and Inventor Discovers New Measure of Health
ALLEN, Texas, April 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ – COHERENCE LLC, Allen, Texas is awarded US Patent #7922664, describing the detection and measurement of a blood wave that rises and falls when we breathe with depth and regularity – what COHERENCE refers to as "Coherent Breathing."
Author and inventor Stephen Elliott and colleagues call this the "Valsalva Wave," named after 15th century physiologist Antonio Valsalva, one of the first Western scientists to observe and document the relationship between breathing and blood flow. For Elliott, the discovery comes after decades of research into breathing and its relationship to health, well-being, and optimal performance.
"Breathing can either facilitate or impede circulation," says Elliott. "If we breathe in a healthy way, it facilitates increased blood flow, and increased blood flow yields increased health, vitality, and well-being. Alternatively, if we breathe in a sub-optimal way, as do most adults, it literally impedes blood flow." Elliott believes that "slowing" of blood flow due to improper breathing is a root cause of high blood pressure and over the long run is a major contributor to heart and cardiovascular disease, as well as a host of other ailments including anxiety, depression, digestive disorders, sleep dysfunction, and chronic fatigue.
"It isn't often that a fundamentally new biological measure comes along," says colleague Robert Grove, PhD. and Partner at J&J Engineering. "This invention allows non-invasive observation of the blood that until now could only be done invasively using catheters. We're already learning new things about the body's elegant coordination of breathing, blood flow, and the heart beat. Valsalva Wave Training (learning to breathe to produce the wave) represents fine tuning of the cardiopulmonary system and has important application to peak performance, sports, and stress management. It's hard to say where this discovery will lead."
Clinical Psychologist, Christopher Fisher, PhD, and managing editor of BMED Report: "Elliott's work has lifted our understanding of breathing and autonomic governance to a new level. His work is clearly at the forefront of psycho-physiological research and its application to many health conditions. Finally, we're able to observe the physiological mechanics behind the phenomenon of heart rate variability which is known to relate highly to mental and physical health and well-being."
COHERENCE incorporates Valsalva Wave technology into its Valsalva Wave Pro and BreatheHeart biofeedback instruments.

Montville — Derek Wainwright watched his team beat the best team in the Eastern Connecticut Conference Medium Division by 22 points Tuesday night.
The Montville High School girls' basketball team, coached by Wainwright, postponed Ledyard's championship-clinching party with a 53-31 victory, outrebounding the bigger Colonels 25-9 and stifling their offense with a two-three zone.
Montville point guard Meghan Autencio broke Ledyard's press like she was driving a bulldozer. Teammate Cassidy Bundy, the center, finished with 14 points, 14 rebounds, seven steals and four blocked shots.
But then there was Wainwright, looking ashen after the game.
"I walked into the locker room and I said, 'I'm so proud of you girls, but I'm so sad right now,'" Wainwright said. "And the girls said the same thing. We didn't take care of what we needed to."
What Wainright was referring to was a Medium Division loss last Friday night against Stonington, 49-41, which cost the Indians. Had Montville (12-5, 6-2) won that game, it would now be tied with Ledyard (14-3, 7-1) atop the Medium Division.
Montville led Stonington 26-19 at halftime before being outscored 21-2 in the third quarter.
Wainwright couldn't help but wonder what if?
"We lost a bad game Friday night. I obviously didn't do a good job as a coach Friday night," Wainright said. "This game's bittersweet. Tonight, I think we showed we could play with anybody in this league."
Ledyard can still clinch the division title, its first since 1992, by winning games Thursday against Waterford and next Tuesday against Windham.
But with a chance to end all suspense with a win Tuesday, the Colonels, who all season have had arguably the most depth in the entire ECC, couldn't put things together offensively.
"I don't think it was pressure. They just outplayed us. They beat us up inside and out," Ledyard coach Adam Baber said. "As soon as we got behind, we played like it was a 15-20 point deficit and we turned it into a 15-20 point deficit."
Montville led 9-6 after the first quarter on a 3-pointer by Autencio. The Indians then outscored Ledyard 15-5 in the second quarter, including an offensive rebound by Bundy off her own miss and a basket by Jamie Hill off the dribble to end the half with a 24-11 lead.
It was 35-16 in the third quarter when Ledyard scored 10 straight points to pull within nine, but as soon as Olivia DelGrosso hit her second 3-pointer of the run, Bundy answered on the next trip down the floor for Montville.
Up 11, Montville reeled off the next 14 points before DelGrosso's game-ending 3.
"It's really important. We've talked about it all year long," Baber said of the possibility of Ledyard ending its drought in the way of ECC banners. "We want this. We don't want to tie it."
Hill had 13 points for Montville, Kiah Strickland 12 points and Autencio 11 points and seven assists. The Indians were missing senior forward Rachael Orbe due to injury.
DelGrosso had 11 points for Ledyard, while Ari Fustini (7), Michelle Klinikowski (7) and Kylie Fustini (6) were the only other players to score.
"We played kind of lethargic the last game. We needed to play with intensity," Montville's Bundy said. "No matter what was on the line, we wanted to come out and play good defense.
" ... It's definitely a statement. I'm proud of my girls. It has a lot to do with confidence. We just wanted to come out here and have fun and fight."

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Center - Saint George, UT
Saint George Neurologist Doctors for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
Type of Physician: Neurologist
What is a Neurologist?

GROSSE POINTE SHORES — Past Mayor Dr. James Cooper was doubly qualified this month to receive the President's Award.
Cooper's 12 years of elected office in Grosse Pointe Shores include being president during the Shores' final years as a village and as mayor during its reorganization as a city.
"Jim was our last president of the village and our first mayor," said current Mayor Ted Kedzierski, during a ceremony at the Tuesday, Dec. 18, council meeting.
The audience stood and applauded as Cooper, a dentist, accepted the award.
"Do you want to say a few words?" asked Kedzierski.
"Thank you," Cooper said.
Kedzierski said the tradition of awarding the outgoing president began with the late Ed Brady.
Brady, a village trustee from 1980 to 1989, and village president from 1989 to 1993, died in November.
Honors didn't stop with Cooper.
Kedzierski gave proclamations to 10 former members of the village board of trustees and city council leaving office within the last five years:
Victoria Boyce,
David Galbenski,
Brian Geraghty,
Robert Graziani,
Dr. Brian Hunt,
Karl Kratz,
Fred Minturn,
Glen Peters,
Linda Somers and
Rose Garland-Thornton, whose 21 years of service "has the record" of the group, Kedzierski said.
Kedzierski said the city couldn't operate without citizen volunteers.
"The ultimate volunteers serving their community are the elected council persons, who probably volunteer over 100 hours each year," he said. "These volunteers believe in the city and want to keep our city the premier community it is."
State Rep.
The final proclamation honored state Rep. Timothy Bledsoe, D, City of Grosse Pointe.
Bledsoe completed his second and final term this month.
"He wasn't a Democrat," Kedzierski said. "He wasn't a Republican. He was a Grosse Pointer."
"It's been an honor," Bledsoe said.
He lost his bid for a third term in the Democratic primary for newly-drawn District 2, which is dominated by Detroit precincts.

Poro Point airport gets fund support
popular .
The Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) has secured funding support for the development of the Poro Point San Fernando Airport in La Union under the public-private-partnership (PPP) program.
"We are confident in the expertise of the PPP Center [and that] the development of the airport [into an international gateway] will be fast-tracked," said BCDA president and CEO Arnel D. Casanova.
He said the PPP Center was now preparing the necessary documentation for the hiring of a consultant to do the feasibility study, prepare bid documents and assist in the bidding process until the financial closure of the project with the private investor.
The project development phase, Casanova added, was an important first step as it would define the parameters for the next phase, which is the design and construction phase. Construction is seen to start by the middle of 2015.
The La Union airport project calls for the upgrading of the airport facilities to meet the International Civil Aviation Organization (Icao) requirements for safety and to serve larger aircraft for international flights and the construction of a terminal with a commercial complex.
According to Casanova, the development of the Poro Point San Fernando Airport was envisioned to establish it as a regional airport that could accommodate direct international flights, serving as a gateway to La Union, Baguio and other tourist spots in the region. It will also provide a link with and complement the operations of the Clark International Airport.
"An airport terminal shopping mall will be constructed similar to Changi Airport of Singapore, but much smaller in scale," Casanova added.

During a tribute session at the Wild Goose Festival in Shakori Hills, N.C., for the late Christian theologian and peace visionary, Walter Wink [8], panelists invited festival goers to share their own stories of how Wink's work had affected their lives.
One man stood up and said something along these lines: "I never met Walter Wink, but his work taught me an invaluable lesson. Walter Wink taught me how to have a Christian imagination — how to imagine Christianity in its fullness."
If you haven't heard of Wild Goose, let us draw you a quick picture: Several thousand Christian believers (and seekers of all sorts) gather together on a farm in rural North Carolina to envision a new world — a world in which peace, spirit, and community rule the day. It's hot and humid. And the entire festival is outdoors.
Participants sleep in tents and RVs, cook food over small fire pits, bathe in makeshift shower stalls, fight off ticks and chiggers with organic bug spray, and for the most part, give up electronics (cell phone reception is poor, WiFi is almost non-existent, and aside from a few outlets tacked onto plywood sheets, there isn't anywhere to charge your phone, ipod, etc., even if you could "connect" digitally to use them).
In between sessions with some of the world's best known teachers and thinkers on everything from "Women as Co-Creators" to "Gifts of Eastern Orthodoxy," Wild Goosers of all ages listen to music, make art, mosey around informational tents, and get to know one another.
This was our first time at Wild Goose (we're Sojourners interns) and only the second Wild Goose Festival in North America (although the festival is modeled after Greenbelt — its famed, long-time festival cousin in the United Kingdom).
As we attended workshops and concerts, met new people, and tried to make sense of the larger impact this gathering might have beyond us, we kept coming back to that statement we heard early on about Walter Wink. What is Christian imagination? How do we imagine Christianity? Whatever it means, imagining Christianity is exactly what happened at Wild Goose.
Here's an example: Throughout the weekend, Fullsteam [9], a craft brewery in nearby Durham owned by an alumnus of Wheaton College [10] (yes, that [11] Wheaton [12]) sold selling beer to quench the thirst of Goosers during late night sessions and performances (a la Homebrewed Christianity, etc.). And on Saturday afternoon — call it an early evening happy hour — a group of rag-tag musicians, armed with a few folk instruments, a trumpet and percussion, led a jolly crowd of more than 100 in Sunday School choruses and old-timey spirituals. They called it, "Beer and Hymns."
There, caught up in a holy wind of hops and hope, we reimagined what church might be during an ad hoc version of "He's got the Whole World in His Hands." We the motley worshippers alternated "He's got the whole world" with "She's got the whole world," proudly singing at the top of our lungs, "She's got the liberals and conservatives / the gays and straights / and a big ole mug of beer/ in her hands."
As we moved through the songs, dancing and singing, meeting new people, joshing (pun intended) and laughing, all around us something palpably connective weighed heavily (and blessedly) in the air. Maybe it was singing these songs with lyrics we actually could believe that made us smile so wide, or seeing a subversive take on a traditional "ale house sing-along" in a new context that made it magical. Or maybe it was a bit of both and a whole lot more.
The Christian imagination drove us onward.
The next day, as we listened to a final talk on the main stage during what amounted to a Sunday morning worship service, Sojourners' own Lisa Sharon Harper emphasized that while times like these can take us up to the mountain, but our reality is that we live in valleys.
Times like these are healing, a coming together of people who yearn for restoration, for renewal, for peace, and a reminder that none of us is alone. At Wild Goose, we experienced a rejuvenation of our own Christian imaginations, propelling us forward to take this spirit of jubilation, inclusiveness, and transformation into our valleys — to make our Christian imagination into a self-perpetuating Christian reality.
Last weekend, the North Carolina farmland filled with people who truly believe we can live out the Christianity we imagine. In talk after talk, we were left with the feeling that we are all visionaries of the church of tomorrow, dreamers of all ages who hope to turn things around — a tribe of the faithful, a chosen family that is open and affirming, neither separated by class or age or fame, nor bifurcated by technology or luxury, not shy of controversy but rather eager to engage with love.

|A report on a five hundred and fifty kilowatt plant
|Other Titles:
|Report on a 550 kilowatt plant
|Robinson, Elmer Clinton
|University of Missouri
|The object of this thesis is to present a report on an electric generating station of the size most commonly encountered in electric lighting work. This size station, and others varying in size from a little smaller to a little larger capacity, are the type found all over the country with the exception of the cities and in most cases they are in the same condition. Very few of them keep complete reports and some do not keep any records at all except of the customers that have not paid their bills. The writer has been associated with this plant and only in a few instances have figures been used which were not approximately correct. The gathering of material for this report was started early in the school year and it was the object to get the full data for it but the company changed hands, and at the same time policies, and as a result the gathering of material was somewhat checked and information was gathered from various and sundry sources which accounts for the brevity of some parts. A few suggestions are to be made as to a better arrangement of machinery and to the handling of coal. A few changes in the present condition of steam lines will probably cut down the amount of coal used and this will result in a lower cost per kilowatt hour. Proposed changes of the station building will be taken up and while they may not be considered by the owners, they will however, be feasible.

Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. Subsidiary Rockstar Games Announces Highly Anticipated 1999 and 2000 Video Game Lineup.
Grand Theft Auto, Earthworm Jim, Monster Truck Madness, Max Payne,
and Duke Nukem Franchises Individual Lineup
Rockstar Games, a division of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (Nasdaq:TTWO), today announced its complete lineup for 1999 and selected titles for 2000.
Rockstar, the high-end video game publishing arm of Take-Two, will be publishing games for the Sony PlayStation, Sega Dreamcast, and Nintendo 64.
In 1999, Rockstar will deliver two additions to the over 1.5 million-sold, critically acclaimed Grand Theft Auto, both appearing on PlayStation. Grand Theft Auto: London 1969 will be the first ever add-on pack for the PlayStation. A full-length sequel, GTA 2, is being developed by DMA Design and will be released in October. Delphine Software International's Darkstone, also on PlayStation, is a genre breaking synthesis of action and role-playing set in a stunning medieval environment. Earthworm Jim 3D will continue the adventures of everyone's favorite annelid on PlayStation and introduce him to the Nintendo 64 player. Monster Truck Madness 64, for the Nintendo 64, will bring Microsoft's immensely popular driving game to the console market. To coincide with the launch of The Sega Dreamcast, Rockstar will release Wild Metal Country, a futuristic action game developed by DMA.
For Take-Two's fiscal year 2000, which begins November 1999, Rockstar will unleash a paradigm-shifting skateboarding game; Thrasher: Skate and Destroy, for PlayStation, which is being developed in conjunction with the definitive skate magazine, Thrasher. Kiss: Psycho Circus (PlayStation) which will star the legendary rock band in their own adventure. Max Payne, from 3D Realms/Remedy, a gritty 3rd person action/shooter, set on the bleak streets of New York City, which brings the mood of film noir to the Dreamcast. Video gaming's toughest character, and one of its most successful franchises, Duke Nukem, will appear in a third person action shooter of a yet to be specified next-generation platform.
"Every game on the label not only exhibits beautiful graphics and innovative technology, but also displays a depth of content and outstanding gameplay guaranteed to satisfy the most voracious gaming tastes," said Sam Houser, president of Rockstar Games. "As such, the Rockstar brand will finally deliver an elite brand that people can trust."

Your Chinese prisoners gonna eat: chow mein
from Slaughterhouse – On the House Lyrics on Genius
Chow is a word used to mean eating time in the military and in prisons.
The origin of the word is also from the Chinese Its immediate origin is a Chinese-English pidgin which was used by indentured Chinese labourers who built the railroads in and into California last century. It seems that the original was the repeated chow chow, and in that form it's recorded in a glossary prepared by a member of the staff of the British embassy in Beijing at the end of the eighteenth century.
and lastly, Chow Mein is a popular Chinese Dish.

Current Issues in Economics and Finance
Alternative Arrangements for the Distribution of Intraday Liquidity
|April 2006 Volume 12, Number 3
|JEL classification: G0, G21
Author: James J. McAndrews
In July 2006, the Federal Reserve will end its provision of free daylight credit to government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs), financial services corporations created by Congress to establish a secondary market in mortgages and other consumer loans. To meet their payments to investors, the GSEs can use a wide variety of alternative funding arrangements. While such arrangements can in theory distribute liquidity efficiently, a decline in the intraday funds in circulation following the Fed's move may lead to some slowing in payments by both the GSEs and commercial banks.

Bharatiya Janata Party president Nitin Gadkari has deftly stepped aside to avoid getting caught in the in the spat between Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj and Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi.
Mr. Gadkari has chosen not to intervene in what now appears a public fight between the two party leaders. It could not be confirmed whether Mr. Modi did indeed complain to Mr. Gadkari about Ms. Swaraj's reported comment that he was not campaigning in Bihar because his magic "need not work everywhere." His aides would neither confirm nor deny it. All that they said was BJP Chief Ministers frequently talked to Mr. Gadkari and one could not be sure of what Mr. Modi might or might not have said.
Asked about the spat, party spokesperson Nirmala Sitharaman said: "I have nothing to say.
But what is certain is that, unlike as has been made out in some news reports, Mr. Gadkari did not take up the issue with Ms. Swaraj. "I am in Bihar and Nitin did talk to me, but he did not even broach the subject of my reported remarks about Mr. Modi's magic not working everywhere, remarks that were made in a specific context and which were twisted out of context in some reports," she told The Hindu over telephone in between her campaign meetings in the State.
In fact, Mr. Gadkari talked to her about the upcoming visit of U.S. President Barack Obama, and she told him she would discuss the subject after she came back from Bihar on Friday. "I repeat, Nitin did not mention the subject of my remarks about Modi's magic. The news that he took this up with me has been planted by some vested interests," said Ms. Swaraj.
It was soon after Mr. Modi notched up some impressive gains in the local bodies and panchayat polls in his State that Ms. Swaraj was asked the question haunting the party from the start of the Bihar campaign: had Mr. Modi been kept away from the Bihar campaign on the specific demand of the Janata Dal (United), which wanted to preserve some semblance of its secular character despite its coalition with the BJP? Her answer was his "magic" might not work everywhere, implying it would not work in Bihar.
In response to this, it is presumed, a Modi fan from Karnataka, MLC Lehar Singh Siroya, placed advertisements in several Hindi dailies published from the capital, praising Mr. Modi sky high, and saying it was time that he moved to the Centre to help resolve national problems. In short, the message was Mr. Modi was good not only for Gujarat, he would be better for the entire country.

Affordable Housing Stock on the Rise with Large Investment
Wednesday, July 30, 2014
Mayor Bill de Blasio announced a partnership Wednesday with some of New York City's biggest financial institutions to build and preserve affordable housing. He said the city will kick start the $350 million fund with $ 60 million dollars — $40 million of which will come from the city's pension funds. He says interest from that loan will go back to the fund.
"Today is a great example of an initiative that fits the obligation to think in terms of the health of our pension funds and the future needs of our retirees, while simultaneously having a real big impact on our city today," the mayor said.
The city's Community Preservation Corporation — an affordable housing financier — will use the investment to provide loans to affordable housing developers, and the interest from these loans will go back to the investors.
Several of the city's pension funds and top financial institutions are financing the initiative. Citigroup contributed $75 million dollars and Wells Fargo added $50 million. Other partners include Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley and Bank of America.
The fund is expected to create at least 7,500 new affordable units.

Comments [2]
Part of the NYC money for this initiative comes from the NYC pension fund. Comptroller Stringer said that the return on investment to the fund will come from the interest payments on the loan. the return on investment will be an estimated 2.75%. i think this is a foolish investment of people's money (including tax payers who contribute to the NYC pension fund). if someone asked you to invest in a real estate project that would yield a 2.75% return, would YOU do it. I would not. the city should not be using pension fund money if it doesnt meet the needs of the investors who do not have a say in this investment. the mayor should use city money NOT pension fund money to fund this if he feels it is an important policy.
Please note the photo is old. There is scaffolding all around the Sutton due to the fact a brick fell from the building and we have had some other construction defects which are developer is ignoring. Harlem elected officials are a failure when it comes to all the construction defects of new building and buildings built by HPD. These new buildings need to take out loans to make the repairs made by NO oversight by the buildings dept. and HPD. The joke is that Council Member Robert Jackson's office ignored this issue and now he has the nerve to run for Senate. Inez Dickens office doesn't answer emails or phone calls and at the end of the street you won't get any help from Assembly Member Farrell. So the consumer ends up being screwed and it's all bait and switch.

Interaction with Guests
You will contact me through my phone number and direct message through this site all the time you need me. Feel free to contact me, I will always be for you.
The Neighborhood
Near the Convention Center you will find two magnificent attractions that I recommend. One is the small South Beach Botanical Garden, which has an area of Divine Relaxation at its Japanese garden, cafe and art exhibition area.
The other is the Holocaust located right next to the Botanical Garden. You will live an unique experience moving through the labyrinthine corridors that will take you to the center piece which will remove magnanimous emotions.
Getting Around
South Beach has a local bus service, costing only 0.25 cents. These buses go from 24th Street to the zero point, so that cross all areas of the resort.
From the MIA airport you have two options to get to South Beach, one is to take a taxi which will cost around $ 40 with the advantage that will take you directly to the door of the house. And the other option is the bus number 150 which costs $ 5 and going from the airport to Washington ave and 15th street. In this case you would have to go through 7 blocks walking to get to your destination.
Other Things to Note
Enjoy! Have fun! Live Life In South Beach!! You will get in you, unimaginable and beautiful memories.
There are only a few rules that I want to share with you, pay close attention because even if few, are important:
1 - Be considerate of neighbors, don´t noises at inappropriate times.
2 - No smoking inside the apartment, you have an spacious balcony and a sofa on the balcony where you can sit and contemplate nature while smoking.
3 - Be careful not to throw paper in the toilet. Note that for this reason can cause tupición in the pipes.
4 - Please keep the place clean and organized.
They are simple and easy rules, so I just wish for you a full and complete enjoyment of space and all the beauty that South Beach has to offer.

Muy bien, todo muy bien.
Everything was perfect! The apartment is clean and super cute, we felt home right away. Kiren is a very nice and responsible host, we would book this charming apartment again, best of all: the location! Within 5min from shopping paradise! We had a great experience, everything is discribed perfect and looks like on pics. Thank you Kiren.
Appartamento pulito e centrale . Host gentile e disponibile .
Everything about the home and the host was amazing
Kiren was very welcoming. She recommended places to stay, and even let me drop my bags off earlier than the usual check-in since my flight got in so early. She was very friendly, fast with responses.
Kiren's apartment is the perfect base to explore Miami beach, it is close to public transportation, to a Deco Bike station and steps away from the shopping area of Lincoln Road. It is in a very quiet street where you can easily relax after an exhausting day in Miami.
Kiren is a really nice and available hostess! The studio is really well located, near Ocean Drive and the beaches of South Beach. Lincoln avenue and Espana way are just a few minutes from there, which makes it easy for finding a restaurant or do some shopping. Thanks again for all, Kiren!
About the Host, Kiren
Hi, my name is Kiren, I was born in Havana, Cuba but now I live in Miami Beach. I need to be near the ocean to function properly, lol! I love reading and writting, also I love to paint. Between my favorite authors I count Herman Hesse, I also like Milan Kundera a lot and some contemporary poets as well. Philosophically speaking, I like Krishnamurti, Hermes Trismegisto, and why not?... Deepak Chopra, just to name a few. My all time favorite film is "The Sea That Thinks". I like chill out and relaxing music. I am a vegetarian and I love every bit of it. When I am feeling happy I usually sing, unfortunately it is not one of my talents, my friends make fun of me every time I force them to hear my singing, they usually joke about it saying that I sing pretty well, but it sounds bad to the ear...
I hope you feel home while visiting my humble place, I promise not to sing if you are around...
