A Shema Flash Mob
In the wake of Anat Hoffman's arrest, a global response
This past spring, when a group of people spontaneously broke out in a synchronized dance number on the promenade near my street in Brooklyn, my 84-year-old landlord called me up to ask me what was going on. I told him it was a flash mob, basically a stunt that's pre-organized online, but looks like something that randomly happened. His reply, which I'll never forget: "I lived in Italy in the 1970s, that's not what a flash mob is."
Since their inception, flash mobs have been getting the knock for their obvious lameness. However, every once in a while, there are some flash mobs that are meaningful. Beyond the wedding proposal variety, they are sometimes performed for good causes, like this past summer when, as we noted, a flash mob in Berlin broke out following an anti-Semitic attack on a rabbi where the participants wore kippot in solidarity.
Another such flash mob took place today where groups gathered to perform the shema. This initiative, which was organized by the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism, was in response to last week's arrest of Anat Hoffman, leader of the Woman of the Wall. Hoffman was arrested as she led a group of women in prayer at the Kotel while wearing a tallit.
The controversy grew after Hoffman claimed that she was mistreated during her time in jail. Israeli police, which were initially slow to respond, are now disputing her story. Nevertheless, the incident has brought the issue of gender rights and prayer back into focus.
I'm sure this is not the last we'll hear about this.

6 cops, 59 shots, 43 wounds, 1 dead man in Tenn.
If death is believed to be imminent "there isn't anybody in the country who can tell the cops 10 shots and no more," O'Donnell said.
"Unfortunately this is replicated all over the country. When you send the police they bring deadly force with them. They come armed and they come predisposed to use force," O'Donnell said.
According to court records, Heyward had been charged three times in the past with domestic assault. The first two were dismissed. The third, from a January 2008 incident, remained pending at the time of his death.
He was sentenced in 2005 to 11 months, 29 days in the county workhouse for passing worthless checks, but the sentence was suspended for good behavior and he was given probation.
He also had a few driving related charges on his record, including a violation of the auto registration law for which he received a 30 day suspended sentence in 1997.
The morning he died, Heyward was distraught after returning from a party where he had been drinking, his father said.
"He didn't think anybody cared about him," Marine said.
Heyward was also upset about not seeing his children – a daughter and two sons – according to brother James Heyward.
The video shows that police were told Heyward was drunk and talking about killing himself before they started shooting.
Chattanooga police officers get two to four hours of training annually on dealing with people who are mentally ill or under the influence of drugs or narcotics. But Weary said the training could not be applied in this case because the situation was too fluid and unfolded too quickly.
Weary wouldn't say whether Heyward had a history of mental health problems, citing the ongoing investigation. Marine said his son had no history of mental illness.
Amanda Counts, Heyward's girlfriend, and neighbor Darrell Turner said they witnessed the shooting. They said Heyward was lying on the porch on top of the rifle when officers opened fire.
"Before the first shot was fired he was down," Counts said. "Not one time did he threaten anyone."
Citing the ongoing investigation, police declined to answer questions about Heyward's position when officers started shooting.
Counts and Turner both said that during the first brief interruption in the barrage of police gunshots, they heard Heyward ask, "Why are you shooting me?"
That cannot be heard in the recording provided by police.
Police Chief Freeman Cooper this month told Chattanooga radio station WGOW the simultaneous shooting by all six officers shows they acted properly.
"We are saying that our people did what we trained them to do," the police chief said.
The officers involved in the shooting had between three and six years on the force.
Heyward's father said he thinks a different police response could have brought the incident last month to a peaceful conclusion.
"I believe he would have put that weapon down," Marine said. "They should have said, 'Mr. Heyward, put the weapon down. We're here to help you.' ... He wasn't threatening no one."
Associated Press writer Travis Loller in Nashville, Tenn., contributed to this story.


text: I have a 1985 Trek 520 and noticed the rear wheel is shot. It's a 5 speed with a Maillard Helicomatic Hub. From what I've read here this is poor design and not worth fixing. So, what do you suggest for a wheel hub combination? I'd like to keep the 36 spokes since I'm a bit of a Clydesdale. I also assume you can't buy off the shelf wheelsets for bikes like this anymore.

Sage Green Pastel is a warmer tone with red-brown tonality. The new Avocado Green is cooler in tone than the previous handpulled Avocado batch of glass.

Custom officials at the country's airports are baffled by the innovative methods being adopted by gold smugglers. Officials have held four smugglers, all from Kasargod in Kerala, this month alone; the most recent arrest came earlier this week when two people were caught trying to bring in nearly 1 kg gold worth Rs 28 lakh.
Gold has been pouring into the country through unofficial channels thanks to the government-imposed curbs on imports of the yellow metal, according to the World Gold Council. The Centre put in place high import duties on gold in an attempt to keep a check on India's high current account deficit. As a result of high import duties, people are finding innovative ways to bring gold into the country.
The customs' intelligence wing said that bags with gold lining or trolley rods made of gold and copper are especially used by certain gold smuggling groups in Dubai due to the high demand for gold in Kerala.
Apart from Dubai, Bangkok and Singapore, gold smuggling syndicates are also bringing in the yellow metal from Australia.
Custom officials at Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Airport arrested a passenger returning from Dubai on February 17. Kasargod resident Mohammed Iqbal was arrested for carrying 467 grams of gold. The gold wires were aluminum-coated and used in 12 brassieres. The other person to be arrested was a woman, but officials refused to divulge further details about this second case.
Officials at the same airport held two smugglers for deftly concealing the yellow metal as part of their baggage on February 10. Both Abdul Rahiman and Beira Sulaiman had arrived from Dubai in two separate flights.
Custom officials intercepted Abdul Rahiman, who arrived on an Emirates flight after his trolley bag scan revealed bright wires in its lining. On closer examination, officials found that the wires were not made of iron, but were aluminum-coated gold. The 400 grams of gold was valued at Rs 12 lakh. Airport officials realised that Rahiman had made several trips to Dubai recently from various airports in the country.
Beira Sulaiman, who arrived on an Air India flight, was caught a day after he left his bag with customs officials who asked him to leave his baggage behind as they were unable to identify the metal frame attached to his trolley bag. The frame had almost 1 kg gold. Spectrum analysis of the frame revealed that it was solid gold worth nearly Rs 25 lakh. Unaware of the results of the tests, Sulaiman appeared before the customs officials to collect the metal frame and was promptly arrested. The fourth incident involved a similar tactic with the man carrying a bag with a concealed 'gold' metal frame. This person was arrested at Jaipur airport on February 15 when he was returning from Dubai.
The gangs from Kasargod have been using multiple teams of smugglers to bring gold to the state. For each kilo of gold smuggled from Dubai, an operator gets Rs 4 lakh, which includes flying, boarding and lodging costs in Dubai. In the last one month, the Hyderabad police and customs have registered nine cases of gold smuggling at the RGI Airport and seized 5.6 kg of the precious metal.

The Canary Islands region
Lanzarote is situated just 79 miles off the coast of Africa and is the most easterly of the Canary Islands. The island is 37 miles (60km) long and 12 miles (20 km) wide, making it the fourth largest island in the Canaries.
Lanzarote enjoys a mild dry climate with average daytime temperatures ranging from about 21°C in January to 29°C in August. Annual rainfall is just 140mm (5.5 inches). This makes Lanzarote the perfect year-round destination.
Amongst the many stunning Volcanic features of Lanzarote is the longest Volcanic Tunnel in the world, the Atlantida Tunnel, which is over 7 km long and includes the La Cueva de los Verdes and Jameos del Agua, both are fantastic places to visit.
There are also many other places to visit and explore such as the Timanfaya National Park, the Cactus Gardens and the most beautiful famous house of Cesar Manrique.
Despite the Volcanic nature of the island, Lanzarote has several beautiful white beaches such as at Puerto Del Carmen, Playa Blanca and Papagayo.
Puerto del Carmen
Puerto Del Carmens' 'Blue Flag' rated beach, 'Playa Blanca', or 'Playa Grande' as its known locally, is the best on the whole island and offers a host of sporting activities, from scuba diving, snorkelling and wind surfing to sport fishing due to the beautiful clear clean waters. Of course if you prefer to enjoy beach life from the comfort of a sun lounger then you shouldn't have any problems, as the beach is 6km (approx. 4 miles) long.
There are also many other fantastic facilities for many other sports such as squash, tennis, horse riding and golf. This 18-hole Par 72 course was Lanzarote's first golf course and lies at the foot of an old volcano set in a landscape of volcanic lava, cacti and over 3000 palm trees.
As one of the larger resort on the island, Puerto Del Carmen can offer some of the best shopping facilities on Lanzarote. From local crafts to the latest electronic gadgets or perfumes to the latest designer clothing, there is something for everyone.

I'm sorry to hear you wasn't happy during your stay in my apartment. However I must disagree with the comments you have made in your review. I feel very strongly that customer service is a high priority. As soon as I received your email I responded immediately and asked my cleaner to pop round to see if she could help. It is unfortunate that you only contacted me the day before you were leaving. The problems mentioned could all have been rectified, but to send me emails after the event, which were rather rude, was disappointing. I am confident that all my guests (past & present) are, and always have been satisfied with my apartment and the professional service I offer - previous reviews reflect this.

"Good Centrally located apartment with everything you need"
Just arrived back after two weeks in a very nice centrally located apartment.Everything was as described by the owner Paul .We found the apartment very comfortable and had everthing we needed ,the washing machine was an added bonus,It was only a few minutes walk to the beach area where there are loads of bars and restaurants.The walk from Peurto Del Carmen to Peurto Calero is well worth the effort.If you are looking for a centrally located apartment this is ideal.

"Great Location - Excellent Apartment"
This was our second visit to this apartment and on both occasions, on arrival, everything was spotlessly clean and tidy. Arrangements made by Paul, the owner, were first class making the complex easy to find. The welcome pack provided was very handy and we tried to sample 'most' of the bars suggested. The apartment is well set out, very comfortable and clean with the washing machine being an added bonus. The bathroom is large and the kitchen/diner area is ideal, if you wish to cook. The apartment's balcony is completely private and receives the sun all day. The complex is situated in the middle of the old town and 'the strip', where there are plenty of bars and restaurants. There are also numerous supermarkets nearby. The pool area is nice and relaxing and you can even use the sister complex across the road where there is a poolside bar. The facilities provided are excellent, could not fault a thing and would highly recommend. Will definitely be booking this place for a third visit.

Really sorry that you were not happy during your stay. I just wish you had contacted me at the time as I would have done my best to deal with these issues. I have had my apartment for 5 years now and this is my first negative review, but obviously you can't please all the people all of the time!

"excellent ,well situated apt"
we are just back from staying at pauls apt. i must say that it was al that it s descriptoin stated on reading about it. spotlessly clean. quiet complex which was kept tidy. its sister complex accross road has a lovely swimming pool and pool bar with very friendly hosts.the apt is well placed between the old town and the new town, the latter having a lovely wee harbour and lots of bars and eating places. at the new town on the strip there are loads of places to choose from .we used the beach a number of times whs kept to a high standard. water was baltic though. the pool was much warmer,these places are all about 5 to 10 mins walk from apt. there are lots of places to walk . a nice walk is along the cliff tops to the next resort. this is from old town harbour. paul has an information pack in apt with everything you need to know. we ate in quite a bit and managed okay .overall we would recommend pauls apt and hope to return sometime again

"Lovely apartment in great location!"
This was one of the best holidays i've ever had. From the beginning everything was easy to arrange, Paul held the dates for a couple of days whilst we arranged flight and transfers were cheap. Were were told exactly what was in the apartment so we had less luggage to carry around. The key was sent by recorded delivery 1 week before we went, and on return a small deposit was refunded vey quickly.
When arriving at the complex it was very easy to find. Unlike some of the properties our balcony was private and completey secure.
The apartment was just like the photos provided, very clean and nice.
In the apartment was a welcome pack with lots of suggestions for things to do and things to avoid! The suggestions were great, we tried a few trips like puerto calero and the walk there was stunning. The views were amazing, as were the restaurants recommended when we got there. The welcome pack also provides lots of shortcuts and directions which was very handy for when we got lost!
The bathroom was huge and the fridge was quite large for an apartment.
There were lots of supermarkets near by, some much more expensive than others. Again, cheaper ones were listed in the welcome pack.
Being a corner apartment, there was nobody above or to the left of us so no noisy neighbours.
The swimming pool was quite deep but nice, and there were another 2 across the road in the sister complex that were free to use. These also had a bar.
Overall this was a great apartment at a very good price.
Puerto del Carmen had lots of things to do and lots of nice places to eat, drink and relax.
I wouldn't hesistate to recommend it and fingers crossed can't wait to go back again!

Ibiza Clubs
It's impossible to think about Ibiza without thinking about Ibiza clubs. Everyone know that Ibiza plays host to some of the best nightclubs and parties in the world and that's more relevant in 2015 than ever. From the glamour of Pacha Ibiza to the thundering darkness of Space, Ibiza delivers again and again.
Check out our insider guides to the biggest and best clubs on the island.

Ibiza Clubbing
From the summer of 1987, when Paul Oakenfold, Nicky Holloway and Danny Rampling returned from holiday in Ibiza telling anyone that would listen about the magical island, and the subsequent 'Summer of Love' the following year, Ibiza has evolved into one of the most important clubbing destinations in the world. Home to many of clublands blue chip brands as well as mother to many newbies, Ibiza regularly attracts top DJs, producers and artists, not to mention a never ending legion of music loving hedonists and a healthy sprinkling of global celebrities. It's a unique combination of yin and yang, it is as inspirational as it is exhausting, as challenging as it is satisfying, it's a place to relax and recharge the batteries and to throw your mind open to infinite possibilities. Ibiza is a place where magic can and often does happen, it is clubbing theatre at its very best. Whether you're in the middle of the Amnesia dancefloor as Paul van Dyk resumes his Cream residency, front and centre at Ibiza Rocks as Biffy Clyro thrash their way through their debut set, hidden behind face paint at the Zoo project or queuing to see Guetta at Pacha, the world's most famous discotheque, there is no place in the world quite like Ibiza.

Nose: Familiar cane sugar notes from the 7 year but this is a touch more laid back and creamier on the nose.
Palate: Light caramels and wood spices with an enjoyable interplay between rye and corn.
Finish: Smooth and long with some chopped red chilli but without the same intense spiciness of the 7 year old.
Overall: Another tremendous Bourbon bottling from Smooth Ambler with plenty of rye influence, the slightly more refined older sibling.

(Re-posting from the Ushahidi Blog)
Ushahidi and iHub researchers met a few weeks ago to present our current research projects and to invite the global research community to suggest ways of working together in the future. The iHub event was attended by about twenty in-person researchers, user experience experts, designers and interested individuals from Nairobi and surrounds, and a virtual audience of about fifty others from around the world. Unfortunately, we had a number of technical problems using the virtual meeting software as well as a general internet outage near the end of the presentation, so we thought we would write about what was discussed and invite comments and suggestions on the Ushahidi research mailing list here.
Heather Ford started off the seminar talking about the growth of Ushahidi from its inception as a response to post-election violence in Kenya in 2008. This simple way of reporting violence and peace efforts in the country has grown into a service used in election monitoring, humanitarian response, citizen journalism efforts – not to mention tracking the best burgers in the world.
Jessica Colaco, research lead ofiHub Research gave an overview of iHub, m:lab and iHub research, and how they fit under the umbrella that is Ushahidi. She outlined iHub Research's mission, which is to drive local tech research in Africa and introduced the four-member research team whose studies are guided by three principles: community, innovation and decisions. "iHub Research, which was founded on the first anniversary of iHub, aims to build local tech research capacity while telling research stories about the African tech community," she said.
Hilda Moraa, iHub Research Strategist, described the ongoing iHub Research projects, taking an example of two projects, the governance project and ICT hubs study and highlighting lessons learned from these, challenges faced and what's next for iHub Research. One of the greatest lessons learned so far by iHub Research is that community involvement is key to the success of research especially if the research aims to have a social impact. Over the next year iHub Research is looking for partnerships and collaborations with local researchers as part of its local capacity building initiative.
Although research at Ushahidi is still pretty small, there are three key areas that we might think about Ushahidi research encompassing in the future. These include:
- What are best case practices that crowd-based/peer-production communities use to organise and manage their information?
- How is our software being used? What are the contexts in which our software is being deployed? What are some of the challenges that our users are facing?
- What opportunities are there for new products to serve particular contexts?
After giving everyone a brief taste of some of the findings of this research, she talked about three key challenges and then outlined three ways to get involved in the Ushahidi research community.
- How do we create feedback loops so that developers respond iteratively to research findings?
- How do we understand use and context in multi-sited, international and sometimes-anonymous settings?
- How do we create opportunities for learning from research communities when we have limited resources?
'How do the users of Ushahidi communicate, organize and mobilize as a network online, and how this type of 'cyberactivism' propagates to people on the ground?'
This question may look good on paper, but in real life I found it unrealistic for me to investigate: The people that I wished to talk to seemed almost impossible to track down. I knew beforehand that it would be a challenge, because the Ushahidi software is open-source and the users on the ground mostly report anonymously. I soon realized though that it would take too much time to even try, so I quickly decided to change focus to the 'deployers' instead of the users – meaning people that either have founded a deployment, or people that are part of a core deployment group. So for now my problem statement is:
How do 'deployers' use Ushahidi in a situation of crisis or conflict? What are the motivations and hopes behind Ushahidi, and which feelings of agency and change arise?
Change happens over time and is therefore difficult to measure in the short research time that I have, so instead I am dealing with the feelings of change that people experience.
My fieldwork location is mainly online, but I have also visited two offline locations in Cairo and Nairobi to do face-to-face and qualitative interviews. My interviews both show critical, positive and pragmatic views on Ushahidi (see selected quotes from the interviews in the slides).
Some deployers state that Ushahidi is too short-sighted; people share information and then what? It seems that some deployments never go further than that. Some express the need for more participation and more critical participation to make a difference, and to give a valid picture of a given situation. The more positive deployers do not claim that Ushahidi changes anything, but at least they found some dignity in using it, and the feeling of doing something was satisfying. They describe how this empowering feeling of doing something means a lot for them.
I believe that there are at least two levels to consider in these quotes. The micro level that describes the personal satisfaction of contributing to something, and the macro level that questions where the actual social change is. I will look further into this dynamics between this personal level and the social/societal level in my further research. See more on online fieldwork and timeline on the slides.'
After Maria's summary, Heather Ford concluded the event with a call for people to contribute relevant papers, events and questions to the mailing list, to add papers to the Mendeley group and to suggest ideas for thematic research seminars in the future.

Most of the same drag queens turned up at Queen Bee (the Sunday night glamour orgy at Mother) to celebrate the sardonically sane Linda Simpson'svery own birthday, one that apparentlymade her so advanced in age that she was made to sit in a wheelchair during the show put on in her honor. Barbara Patterson Lloyd who Linda joked is an acquired taste ("like when you go to the Orient and they serve fried rat") did a frothily bonkers Fosse-inspired number and Misstress Formika rocked with a slutty rap song followed by a defiant Pat Benatar tune, during which she rolled Linda right off the stage.
I had just rolled over from a screening of Hilary and Jackie, which is not about a pair of cuckolded first ladies, but rather about a terminally ill cellist and her sister, whose hubby the cellist is desperate to duet with. Call it Shine with MS and an attitude. At the Le Cirque 2000 after-party, the film's producer, Alan Paterson, told me that when he saw Shine, "I thought, 'Oh, fuck! Is this going to help or hurt us?' " It ended up having no effect at all, but Breaking the Waves did; when Paterson saw that one, he knew he had to get the charismatically quirky Emily Watson to play the plucky cellist. He and his cohorts pitched Watson the story at a divey London restaurant and she started bawling, the men promptly following suit. "And we don't think of ourselves as weepy guys," Paterson told me. "We watch soccer games together!"
I sobbed on noticing that the brief but sweet same-sex couplings in last year's On the Town revival were chopped right out of the version that just made it to Broadway. What's more, while there's still some joy in this mixed bag of lyricism and shtick, a few parts that were great now just grate. On opening night, Mayor Giuliani introduced the show, and we nostalgically entered a world of cooch dancers and Times Square girlie shows and you thought irony was dead.
If you thought creepiness was a goner too, Glue magazine has been boasting that they've nabbed convicted killer Michael Alig to write articles for them and also shoot a fashion spread in prison (I guess that fab location access explains why they didn't hire O.J. or the Ramseys). Final thought: Don't fellate your horse unless there's real feeling there.

Phillies lose another game, another player
PHILADELPHIA Another key injury overshadowed another loss for the Philadelphia Phillies.
Dee Gordon hit a go-ahead single to back Chris Capuano and the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied to beat the struggling Phillies 6-5 on Wednesday night.
Jimmy Rollins, Shane Victorino and Ty Wigginton homered for the Phillies, who have lost a season-worst five straight games.
Already missing Ryan Howard, Chase Utley and Roy Halladay, the Phillies lost second baseman Freddy Galvis to a back injury. Galvis, who has filled in nicely for Utley, hurt his lower back during an at-bat and left the game. He'll be placed on the disabled list Thursday.
"Another one of our guys going down, what more can I say?" manager Charlie Manuel said. "It's kind of bad right now, but we have to show up and try to win a game. Nobody is going to feel sorry for us."
The five-time defending NL East champions are six games behind first-place Washington. They're hoping to stay within striking distance until their stars return. Howard and Utley played together for the first time in an extended spring training game Wednesday morning in Clearwater, Fla. The team's 3-4 hitters have missed the entire season so far.
Howard, the 2006 NL MVP, has been recovering from surgery to repair a torn left Achilles tendon. Utley, a five-time All-Star, has chronic knee problems.
"Injuries are a part of baseball," Wigginton said. "You have to roll with the punches. Everybody in here knows everybody can play. The next guy has to step up."
Capuano (8-2) gave up four runs and four hits in five innings in one of his least effective starts this season. The lefty has a 2.82 ERA and is tied for the most wins in the majors.
Three relievers combined for three scoreless innings before Kenley Jansen finished for his ninth save, including three in this series.
Jansen allowed an RBI double to Wigginton in the ninth, but struck out pinch-hitter Jim Thome looking and retired pinch-hitter Brian Schneider on a popup to leave two runners on.
The Dodgers will try to complete a four-game sweep Thursday afternoon.
Phillies starter Kyle Kendrick (2-5) allowed five runs and four hits in 5 2-3 innings.
"It's frustrating," Kendrick said. "We have to get a win and start something."
After Rollins hit a two-run shot to give the Phillies a 4-2 lead in the fifth, Kendrick quickly gave it back the next inning. He walked pinch-hitter Jerry Hairston Jr. to force in a run with two outs before exiting. Raul Valdes came in and allowed Gordon's two-run single that put the Dodgers ahead 5-4.
The Dodgers tacked on an insurance run in the ninth when Jake Diekman walked James Loney with the bases loaded.
Wigginton drove one out to left-center leading off the fifth to tie it at 2. With two outs, Rollins connected to give the Phillies a short-lived lead.
Victorino lined his seventh homer into the left-field seats to put the Phillies up 1-0 in the second. But the Dodgers answered with two in the third.

Yeah, I know they're TECHNICALLY supposed to obey privacy regulations... but a whole lot of rules that apply elsewhere don't quite work out here. I guess, if I ONLY told the aide who saw me, and let it slip that we hadn't told ANYONE in the village yet, she would understand that if people started finding out and it got back to me, I'd know exactly who spilled the beans...
I think that's what I'll do. Not put it on the initial form that the front desk lady reads, but say it to the lady who tests me... IF I test positive and she has to call the doctor for a prescription.

Madden NFL 13
Change Predictability Trait
What exactly does changing this do game wise? I'm not getting much help from the description "Purchase this package to become a more predictable player."
GT: ClaudiusTyrone
Lets go Knicks
Yeap me too
Its true you are nearly unstopable your mom tried birth control and your father didnt want you, but you survived
Raises Consistency.
EDIT: What exactly does consistency, I'm not sure. I read that it only affects simulation... Maybe it affects hot and cold strikes, I'm not sure.
MaddMan999 posted...
Raises Consistency.
Isn't that what the consistency trait is for?
GT: ClaudiusTyrone
Lets go Knicks
You're right, they're different upgrades... hmmmm.
I noticed that not every player can buy the Predictability upgrade... In fact, I think there's only TO who can buy it on my team, so maybe this his about personnality... Affects the stories in the tweets? lol.... But this isa possibility
OR! Affects their strategy; a DL will be less predictable using finesse or power moves (or a special trait)... I won't make an example with each position.
I think this is more about personnality, but player's strategy/patern is also plausible.
I was thinking it would make a player less predictable on the field and harder to guard or something but in the description it says it makes the player more predictable, and I just don't see how thats a good thing.
GT: ClaudiusTyrone
Lets go Knicks
This is why I'm going for the personnality hypothesis.
EA needs to do a better job of explaining what specific traits and attributes actually do.
I drafted a phenom HB 1st overall in my career mode and all the tweets about him are really positive, never showed any signs of bad character, but one of the upgrades he can get is the predictability trait, so that makes me unsure if its personality related.
GT: ClaudiusTyrone
Lets go Knicks
I know that almost none of the real player can buy it, but many rookies can, so this also why I'm saying that.
Did the HB have a story? I was thinking that it could just affect player who have stories and what events can happen to them in their career. Would be really nice... maybe it's not that at all, but I would like that a lot (to go with the Rpg progression sytem, I want random events).

One-Stop Website Explains Everything You Need to Know About the New Internet Protocol, IPv6
– Internet Growth and Innovation Depends on Continued Availability of IP
– Over 800 European Organisations Give Their Support to the "IPv6 Act
Now" Statement to Urge Speedy and Efficient Adoption of IPv6
The RIPE NCC, the not-for-profit organisation that supports the
infrastructure of the Internet, launches the IPv6 Act Now website today. With
an Internet community position statement on IPv6 supported by over 800
organisations, the website explains the new Internet protocol in terms that
everyone can understand. It also urges adoption of IPv6 by all organisations
integral to the Internet's infrastructure.
The website, http://www.ipv6actnow.org, shows support for the RIPE IPv6
position statement from an exhaustive list of high profile technology and
telecoms brands and governments alongside commercial and not-for-profit
The website is designed to appeal to everyone with an interest in IPv6,
from network engineers to company directors, from law enforcement agencies to
government representatives and civil society. Site content is updated
regularly and includes:
- Expert education, advice and opinion - The latest relevant news stories - Written and video content from Internet community leaders - Current IPv4 exhaustion/IPv6 uptake statistics - European Commission updates - Information on IPv6 distribution policies - Useful links to other sources of IPv6 information - A forum for everyone to share experiences, ask questions and find answers.
The video section launches with contributions from APNIC, the Regional
Internet Registry (RIR) for the
"The IPv6 Act Now website is for everyone with an interest in the
long-term growth and success of the Internet; for anyone seeking information
to help guide them through the deployment of IPv6 in their network," comments
"Multi-stakeholder cooperation is essential for the continued growth and
success of the Internet. The support for the RIPE community's IPv6 position
statement demonstrates the willingness of public and private sector
organisations to work together to deploy IPv6 sooner rather than later."
One of the world's five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs), the RIPE NCC
is launching the site as a resource directory for all stakeholders to aid the
adoption of IPv6.
* A full list of the RIPE community's IPv6 position statement supporters

The holiday movie season kicks off in November and I might as well start with a film many people are looking forward to that might be the one that does not live up to the hype, "Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1."
The fourth installment of the best selling book series begins with the marriage of Edward and Bella. I'm not sure there's enough to the story to make two parts but Summit Entertainment is going to try to get their money's worth out of this franchise.
A few weeks ago I saw a commercial I had seen several times but never really thought about.
What it came down to was this: cannibalistic cereal.
No, really. One piece of cereal eating another piece of cereal.
It's not like I'm shocked or freaked out or anything. (If it happened in real life — pardon the unintentional but appropriate joke — that would be different.) I just never really paid that much attention to the commercial until it struck me that it was just a bit odd.
Bookends & More, 809 N. Wilson Road in Radcliff, will host a book signing from 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday. Authors the Rev. Gary Hamer and Michael Heitkemper will be there to sign their latest books.
Hamer is a resident of Greensburg, Ind., and author of "The Thundering Whisper," a book about prayer.
Heitkemper also is from Indiana and author of a mystery novel titled "Becoming Mortal gods," set in the World War II era.
If you go: "Another HCP Halloween," a fundraising production presented by Hardin County Playhouse, is at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday at Plum Alley Theater in the Historic State Theater complex in Elizabethtown. Tickets are $20. For more information, call (270) 352-0577.
What would it have been like if Judge Judy had presided over the Salem Witch Trials? Or what if serial killer Aileen Wuornos and suspected axe murderer Lizzie Borden were among the all-female hosts of a talk show?
As Halloween approaches, the Historic State Theater will present "The Shining Experience," a program built around the celebrated horror film.
The 1980 Stanley Kubrick film based on the Stephen King novel stars Jack Nicholson ("The Bucket List"), Shelley Duvall ("Popeye") and child actor Danny Lloyd, who is rumored to reside in the Hardin County area.
Take along a lot of crackers if you go to see "The Three Musketeers." It's very cheesy.
Most modern productions of the Alexandre Dumas' classic tale present it in a similar way.
A teen forces himself out of bed on Monday morning. A new week at school has begun. He gets dressed and puts on the new jacket his mom bought him over the weekend. She knew something was wrong but he wouldn't talk about it.
He looks in the mirror, a slight smile on his face hoping today would be better. He grabs his bag and talks himself into stepping out the door.
The Historic State Theater is expecting an event Saturday will cast a spell on its audience.
Hocus pocus will be the focus when Grand Illusions, a magic show touted as the largest of its kind in the central U.S., takes the stage at 7 p.m.
The show requires five people more than four hours to set up the more than five tons of equipment.
Grand Illusions is suitable for the whole family.
Tickets for the event are $10 for adults and $7 for children under 12.
For tickets or more information call (270) 234-8258.
Elizabethtown painters Cynthia Kelly Overall and Betty Campbell are displaying new oil paintings in "Landscape Paintings," on exhibit at B. Deemer Gallery in Louisville until Nov. 5.
Overall's latest body of work depicts scenes of rural landscapes and farms. Her paintings have a luminosity and technical application learned from her studies in Europe and further developed over the years working in her studio, according to an announcement by the gallery.
A former Radcliff resident has published his first novel.
Nescher Pyscher, who now lives in Ohio, published "Tales of the Fallen" through A-Argus Better Book Publishers.
"Tales of the Fallen" is a fantasy novel and is available in paperback and ebook from www.amazon.com and www.barnesandnoble.com.

Note: we only give a property a rating once it has received a minimum of 3 reviews.
- " We enjoyed our 2 nights stay very much. The staff was excellent and helpful and could speak English very well. The location is very convenient as it is close to the Hiroshima train station and local buses. "
- 28 Mar 2015 Frances Japan
- " I would stay here again. The location is prime and the directions are very clear with visible signage unlike numerous other places on my travels through japan. The staff was lovely and helpful (in english). Slept well in a top bunk. Beware that the corridors are narrow, the sinks are in the hallway and a bit tight to use, virtually impossible to pass by someone standing there. Very surprised people bring giant suitcases here. Take in the Japanese traditional theater a block away. "
- 25 Mar 2015 Anonymous USA
- " Enjoyed our stay. Very clean and tidy. I would recommend the hostel for others to stay in the future. "
- 22 Mar 2015 Heather USA

- 09 Mar 2015 Anonymous Singapore
- " I thought this was a great place to stay, and I would highly recommend K's to any traveler. It was easy to meet other solo travelers, and it came with all the amenities that a backpacker is looking for. The staff was very friendly and helpful (and could speak English), the hostel was very clean and taken care of, it was safe and within walking distance to all the major hotspots around Hiroshima and the train. Thanks for a great visit! "

- 15 Dec 2014 Anonymous USA
- " K`s house is always a good guest house to stay while in Japan. I stayed previously in k`s kyoto and tokyo and they were good because I slept on a bed. The only con thing this time in Ks house hiroshima was that I slept on traditional room, so no bed at all. "

It is nice to see them starting to regain their sense of humor after many months of defensive and almost martyr-like vibes coming from them. Yeah, I am mostly an ATI guy in recent years, but first I am a fan of healthy competition in the space, and it is nice to see NV showing some signs of feeling good about themselves again. . .at least enuf to do something like this little video. Of course, if I was one of those who had shelled out for a 5800U I might have a different opinion, but happily I didnt. . .
