Originally written on Sliding Into Home | Last updated 11/16/11
From Marc Carig:
Pleased with what he described as general manager Brian Cashman's "aggressiveness," C.J. Wilson's representative said today the Yankees have extended an invitation to visit New York, where he would meet with some of the team's top decision-makers.Garber also says in the article that there are six or seven teams that they're in "serious talks" with.
Wilson's agent Bob Garber, who met with Cashman at the general managers' meetings, refused to divulge whether figures were exchanged. But he called the meeting productive.
"I told him where we were at, they understood, and want us to come out," Garber said. "I think it's a good fit. We have a lot of teams we have to narrow down. I think the Yankees are a team that we've narrowed down as a team we want to spend a little time with."
"I think it was very productive and who wouldn't really want a pitcher who has been to the last two World Series?" Garber said. "I think Brian is in a situation where he doesn't want what happened to Cliff Lee to happen again."

Angels' outfield has the potential to be superior
If he duplicates his play from a season ago, Gary Matthews Jr. could help make the Angels' outfield the best in the business.
Are the luxury tax and increased revenue sharing spreading talent around? Or is this merely a down cycle for big league outfielders?
Either seems possible in assessing outfield collections entering 2007.
The days of the super outfields, when teams often used three big bats in the outfield to bludgeon the opposition, appear to have passed, or at least are taking a sabbatical. There are good outfields in the major leagues, ones with thunder and depth, no doubt, but by and large the teams ...

If you never did, you should. These things are fun and fun is good!
I never really excelled in those required writing courses in school, so instead of writing some elaborate story about myself I would rather list a few things that I would consider to be "ME". And a few things I would like in "YOU". I want to travel as much as my heart desires. I am not afraid to "rough it out", I welcome adventure. I enjoy the feeling I get after attending a yoga class. I am a big Philadelphia sports fan. I love music, especially live music, I like to go to a good concert. I enjoy a good game of cornhole when tailgating. I love cute animated movies, anything Pixar can put a smile on my face. I like to be pursued when it comes to a relationship. I am a bit shy. I am a little bit of girlie with a little bit of tomboy. I like to keep active, I play soccer with a group of friends. I enjoy a good mudrun or 5K (hopefully I can step it up and complete a half marathon!). I am an RN and happen to work those crazy rotating schedules. I am very family oriented. My family and friends mean everything to me. I am looking for someone who can make me smile for no reason. Someone who can introduce me to new things, and will also enjoy what I have to offer. I like a gentleman who can treat me like a lady. Someone who can make me laugh. And most importantly someone to enjoy life with. I don't believe writing a little bit about yourself should ultimately be used to describe who you really are. So lets get to know each other, what do we have to lose?
Camping , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports
Running, Skiing, Soccer, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Birds, Cats, Dogs, Fish, Horses

Many people find it attractive to support the University through a gift of stock. If you transfer long-term, appreciated stock to the University, it can be sold by UD and you will avoid tax on the gain. If your stock has been held long-term but has decreased in value, it may be more advantageous for you to sell the stock and give cash to UD.
Stock gifts can be made in several different ways. Due to the Securities Exchange Commission (S.E.C.) regulation requirement for signature(s) to be Medallion guaranteed by an authorized officer of a participating brokerage firm or a bank registered by the S.E.C., it is suggested that potential donors deliver to a broker the stocks they may want to donate on short notice. The stock then can be readily moved in street name.
It is important that donors making a stock transfer to the University notify the University that they are making such a stock transfer and also inform us of the desired use of the gift. It is also important that donors specifically authorize their brokers to disclose to the University the name of their client and the details pertaining to the stock transfer. Such steps are particularly critical since privacy laws prohibit brokers from disclosing the names of clients making wire transfers of stock unless the disclosure of such information has been specifically authorized by their client.
The following are methods, in order of preference, for transferring stock to UD. In all cases, a letter (or copy of your instructions to the broker) should be sent to the Senior Administrative Assistant to help with identification and should indicate whether proceeds from your gift should be unrestricted, or earmarked for a specific purpose.
1. If stock is held in a brokerage account (in street name), you may instruct your broker in writing to place the shares into an account in the name of the University of Delaware. The broker should contact the Senior Administrative Assistant for instructions on disposal of the shares, as the University may have an account with your broker.
2.Stock may be transferred directly to the University's brokerage account via Depository Trust Company (DTC) at Wilmington Brokerage Services --- DTC 0226, account number 009-386-863.
3. If the stock certificate is held in the name of the donor, the back of the certificate can be endorsed and dated, but it should not be assigned to UD. The signature must be Medallion guaranteed.
If the stock certificate is in the name of the donor and not endorsed on the back of the certificate, the donor must execute a Stock Power and have his or her signature Medallion guaranteed on the stock power.
When using the stock power, fill in only the signature(s) and the date at the bottom. Please deliver or mail the certificate(s) and stock power by certified mail to:
Mrs. Suzanne Deshong
Office of the Vice President for Finance
220 Hullihen Hall
University of Delaware
Newark, DE 19716
If mailed, the certificates and the stock power should be sent separately for security. The date of the gift will be the day the certificate is delivered to the University or, if mailed by U.S. mail, the postmark date.
4. While not the preferred method, stock may be sent via mail if it is made out in the name of UD. No stock power is required.
5. If giving mutual fund shares, you should work with your broker or mutual fund and UD to have the shares reregistered in the University's name.
For assistance in making a gift of stock, please contact the Office of the Associate Vice President for Financial Services & Associate Treasurer at (302)-831-8964 or the Office of University Development at (302) 831-2104.

I have been working on developing the new headlight system with John at Advmonster. Here is proto no 2 with some small LED turn signals in test. New brackets in test are behind the mask. Seem to work well...
This is at an BLM area west of Salt Lake called Knolls. I'm out here because there is no snow. Not so closer to the mountains. Can you see Wendover? It's only 40 miles away...
The mask extends above the triple clamp about 8 inches. This is enough to provide good wind protection but not so much as to be in the way when riding off road terrain. This height seems to work well on the 990 Adv so I reasoned that it might work here as well. Turns out that, due to the aerodynamic difference of the two bikes, it seems to be better here. No noticeable buffeting...
I installed my 76 CX GPS on the "trampoline" shock mount to verify that it would fit well behind the mask. All is good...
There is plenty of sand at Knolls (it is the Great Salt Lake Desert) to practice your sand riding as well as the new Big Foot kick stand foot. We all know how well the stock KTM feet work in soft terrain. This is a "pull out the old & insert the new" item. Looks good so far...
So far, so good. Back to the shop....

It can be either one, depending on who is advocating for it and with what dimensions. For instance, when France recently required Muslim women to remove their headscarves in the French public schools, I thought this illustrated a form of French nationalism (going all the way back before the French Revolution) which subordinates religious identity to national identity--and that is idolatrous.

But it need not be so. I don't take Beth Newman's concerns lightly, but I was shocked to read her article because it seems clear to me that theocratic or semi-theocratic threats are far more imminent at this point in U.S. history than is secularist pluralism AS AN IDOLATRY. I have frequently complained to Stanley Hauerwas (who was one of Beth's teachers and whom I think is influencing her at this point, not some Dominionist) that he is warning constantly about lesser threats in a way that makes us miss the greater current dangers.
It's like when German Christians wouldn't support the Weimar Republic because it was secular and influenced by the French Enlightenment--and so they undermined the Weimar Republic and never saw the MUCH LARGER dangers of National Socialism waiting in the wings.

While I would have phrased criticisms of Beth's article in a far more nuanced manner, I am disappointed in what she wrote. I have, however, grown used to Curtis Freeman misusing ideas from Yoder and McClendon to support an agenda with which they would strongly disagree.Michael Westmoreland-Whitehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1162000884921665852006-10-27T21:01:00.000-05:002006-10-27T21:01:00.000-05:00Curtis,To post a comment you need to register and ...Curtis,

There's little doubt that some modern Baptists have a more "Catholic" view than mine. I doubt that many Baptists in the past shared this fondness for Catholic theology.

The labels you use to caricaturize thought do little to shed light on Baptist thought.

The terms secularism, libertarianism, and liberalism were not in use in either Williams' or Leland's day with the meanings they are given by modern communitarians.

I don't see much affinity in either Williams' or Lelands' thought for communitarianism.

Advocating church-state separation is not equivalent to idolizing the nation-state. It checks any pretension of the nation-state and its' agents from attempting to exercise authority over the conscience of religious minorities.Dr. Bruce Prescotthttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1161997685109559522006-10-27T20:08:00.000-05:002006-10-27T20:08:00.000-05:00Dr. Curtis Freeman sent the following comment by e...Dr. Curtis Freeman sent the following comment by e-mail:

Bruce:

Your comments to Beth were not just unfair. They were shrill. What you have yet to concede is that there is a different understanding of Baptist heritage with regard to liberty than the libertarian one you continue to hold up as ?the? tradition. I don?t deny it?s been the popular one of Baptist liberals and moderates, even though I?m convinced it?s not well founded historically (not to mention theologically). For example, in your recent blog you state: ?Roger Williams was one of our great philosophers in the separation of church and state tradition, contrasting the garden of religious faith against the wilderness of politics and upholding the garden over the wilderness. And John Leland, who inherited in the Baptist tradition Roger Williams' ideals, was a close friend of Thomas Jefferson's and was instrumental in the passage of the First Amendment to the American Constitution.?

Of course anyone who?s read Williams would never mistake him for a philosopher, especially not a political philosopher. What your comment assumes is that Leland gets Williams right. Williams makes allusion to the garden image several times in his complete writings. But he is not making a case for separation of church and state (which Leland is). He was not worried about the integrity of the state (certainly not democracy), but rather with the purity of the church. Specifically, he is reflecting an ongoing conversation/controversy with John Robinson and other Separatists who were contending about how far they had to separate from the whore. Robinson said that only the table (LS) needed to be ?hedged.? Williams disagreed. He said one sip from the whore?s cup corrupts the church. He contended that all the ordinances of the church should be hedged. So believers must not pray with unbelievers (ie. the initial subject of his controversy with John Cotton). Neither should believers consent to unbelievers making oaths (which magistrates did). Such acts were not uncivil. They were blasphemous. Williams took the extreme view that unbelievers not be permitted to participate in any of the ordinances of the church. The garden of the church must be hedged from the world. When he concluded that even a complete hedge wouldn?t work, Williams gave up on the Baptists and said we must wait till Jesus comes back to restore the integrity of the church and its ordinances.

How did such a separatist puritan theology ever get so misconstrued by John Leland and especially the liberal democrats of the 20th century? In 1951 Winthrop Hudson wrote an article for The Christian Century entitled ?Roger Williams, No Secularist.? In that brief piece Hudson displays what Le Roy Moore, Sacvn Bercovitch, and a host of critical scholars have since exposed?namely that the account of Roger Williams as a proto-Jeffersonian defender of liberal individualism is a myth without basis in fact. This persistent account that was incorporated into the canonical story of Baptist history (at least in North America) owes its popularity in part to the influence of Vernon Parrington?s famous 1927 essay.

I won?t belabor the point. Let me only say that I?m willing to admit you have a particular view of Williams that is widely held among your peers. Beth, I think represents a different take on the Baptist heritage that is more catholic than liberal. She might have exercised better judgment in a popular column by not quoting someone whose larger program she clearly does not agree, as she has stated. But you have failed to grasp that the Baptist tradition does not speak with a single libertarian voice, even if you construe those like Williams to agree with you about liberal democracy. This is the substance of Beth?s point.

I tried to post this comment on your blog but was not permitted. I?d be pleased if you could do so.

Thank you,

Curtis

While no one can accuse the earliest Baptists of being Aristotelian philosophical foundationalists, some of them did in fact incorporate the language and logic of Aristotle into the classical confessions and treatises of the Baptist tradition. John Smyth was notable in this regard, even in his ecclesiology (see Richard Andrew Rankin, "The Use of Aristotelian Logic and Metaphysical Principles in the Ecclesiology of John Smyth" [Ph.D. dissertation, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, 1994]), and Article 8 of the 1611 confession "A Declaration of Faith of English People Remaining at Amsterdam" begins its Christological affirmations with this language: "That IESVS CHRIST, the Sonne off GOD the second Person, or subsistence in the Trinity...." Any way you slice it, "subsistence" is a theological term laden with Aristotelian metaphysical baggage and mediated to these early Baptists by the patristic and medieval theological tradition. Nevertheless, Dr. Prescott does correctly suggest that an Aristotelian philosophical foundationalism is more characteristic of the Roman Catholic tradition than it has been of the Baptist tradition; yet he incorrectly reads Beth Newman's rejoinder as a claim that early Baptists believed that the New Testament church was patterned after the Aristotelian polis. Rather, Beth employed the Aristotelian sense of the word "polis" in order to underscore the nature of the church as a community of responsible citizens, a community that for the Christian has priority to the community that is the civil polis.Steve Harmonhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1161975872748746612006-10-27T14:04:00.000-05:002006-10-27T14:04:00.000-05:00Beth,I did let my frustration with the source you ...Beth,

I did let my frustration with the source you quoted prompt an unduly caustic tone in my remarks. I appologize for the tone, but not the content of my critique.

As for the content of your response,
it's hard for me to comprehend how Baptists ever came to believe that the New Testament church was patterned after Aristotle's polis.

Baptists have sometimes been called "primitivists" in their ecclesiology but not often have they been called "Aristotelians."

Roman Catholics, on the other hand, have a widely recognized allegiance to Aristotelian thought.Dr. Bruce Prescotthttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1161968798013517152006-10-27T12:06:00.000-05:002006-10-27T12:06:00.000-05:00Stripped of its abuse (I am "completely oblivious,...Stripped of its abuse (I am "completely oblivious," "ignorant," and "lacking in comprehension"), its snidness (I am writing this while "tucked away in [my] book lined office"), and its guilt by association tactics (if I had quoted Kipling would it have been necessary to say that I probably don't admire the British imperialism of the 19th century), Dr. Prescott's critique of me amounts to a single point-- I am not his kind of Baptist. And there is a further implication on his part--this is dangerous.

I plead guilty to the first. I am not his kind of Baptist. I won't call him "clueless," but merely observe that there are varying accounts of Baptist history, theology and politics, and of how Helwys, Williams, Leland and others in the ?communion of saints? might be understood.

Thomas Helwys penned ?God save ye king? (1611) because he believed the king (the state) had usurped the authority of God, and had thus set itself up as an idol. To the extent that the ideology of pluralism legitimizes ultimate allegiance to the nation, then it too is a form of idolatry. This argument is not a defense of theocracy but a call for the church to be the church. The means the polis called church (in the Aristotelian sense of the word polis) ought to be more determinative for our lives as Christians than the politics of any nation-state. If this is not the case, then we are in fact doing the very thing our Baptist forebears warned against.Beth Newmanhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1161917085541399792006-10-26T21:44:00.000-05:002006-10-26T21:44:00.000-05:00The article is a bit hard to follow.As I read it, ...The article is a bit hard to follow.

As I read it, I don't believe Professor Newman is advocating that a pluralism of individual rights should be denied. Rather, she seems to be saying that pluralism should not intimidate an individual not to advance or defend one's particular point-of-view in the public square. She also seems to be saying pluralism as a metaphysic is deficient in content. With this I would agree.Snoofyhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1161856006893227502006-10-26T04:46:00.000-05:002006-10-26T04:46:00.000-05:00I consider myself conservative and I disagree with...I consider myself conservative and I disagree with the premise that Pluralism is a form of Idolatry.

The dangers of a false view of reality

Feel free to ask some of your professors those questions as well and see what they think.Rogerhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1161816754788163292006-10-25T17:52:00.000-05:002006-10-25T17:52:00.000-05:00While the content of this article was something I ...While the content of this article was something I am used to seeing, it is difficult for me to express my disappointment at its source. Everyday I feel more and more like I will be fighting a battle I cannot win for the rest of my ministry. I will be battling those who are ignorant of the atrocities the Christian church has committed in the name of God. You would think we could learn a lesson from the brave Christians who went before us and were burned, hanged, drowned, beheaded or killed in some other terrible way just because their beliefs differed, even if only a little, from the religion of the state. Until today, the last place I expected to hear something like this was from a professor at a moderate Baptist seminary.

I don't have a Ph.D, and, in fact, I am only just starting my second year in divinity school. But, in that year, I have learned more than enough to make me absolutely sure that if we see the kind of change Dr. Newman is advocating, we will quickly return to a time when religious persecution runs rampant.

She chooses to quote Augustine, who says of national unity: ?[H]ow many great wars, how much slaughter and bloodshed, have provided this unity!? How can she not see that the very same statement would apply if we try to unite the world under, as she puts it "a call to live in such a way that acknowledges the rule of God over all?" We can't even decide what that means for Baptists, much less the rest of Christianity or other faiths.

I guess I should consider myself lucky that I have been taught by professors such as Bill Leonard, James Dunn, and Melissa Rogers. They have taught me the history of theocracies, the importance of the separation of church and state, and the necessity for the church to learn to live and work in a pluralistic society. So, I guess I will follow Paul's advice to Timothy to "fight the good fight" even when I seem to be hopelessly outnumbered by those who seem content in their email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5071048.post-1161805708012429032006-10-25T14:48:00.000-05:002006-10-25T14:48:00.000-05:00Here is a reading list with a little emphasis on I...Here is a reading list with a little emphasis on Idaho for people who need an update on religious movements in modern America:

I have chronic anemia and chewable iron has corrected that problem. My iron levels got so low at one point the doctor was going to start infusions. I asked for one month to see if I could correct the problem. I started taking two tablets per day and when checked again met levels were perfect. Love this stuff.
Great Tasting!

Despite losing the CFL's title game, veteran receiver Nik Lewis remained optimistic about a 2012 season
Nik Lewis says he's misunderstood
To some extent, local media can thank Nik Lewis for the tip that the Calgary Stampeders were bringing in Tad Kornegay for a chat over the weekend
Listed at a cubic five-foot-10, 240 pounds, Calgary Stampeders slotback Nik Lewis is not exactly the picture of pure speed
If nothing else, the Stampeders proved that it is, indeed possible to win a game in the CFL while doing just about everything wrong
The B.C. Lions, who overcame five straight losses to open the season en route to finishing first in the West Division, had nine players named CFL all-stars on Wednesday. The Lions, who host the Edmonton Eskimos on Sunday in the Westfinal, dominated the all-star team, selected by fans, the Football Reporters of Canada and CFL […]
VANCOUVER — Anthony Calvillo didn't beat out Jamel Richardson for the Montreal Alouettes' outstanding player nomination. History did. And in some ways, so did logic, though that is a word seldom associated with the media people who vote on the Canadian Football League awards.
LEWIS CHANNELS HIS INNER JORDAN Nik Lewis did not practise all week because of a nasty flu bug, but the Calgary Stampeders slotback was determined to play Friday against the Toronto Argonauts. Lewis used Michael Jordan's performance in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals as inspiration. In that game, a flu-ridden Jordan scored 38 […]
TORONTO — John Hufnagel is not sure who will start at quarterback for the Calgary Stampeders next week.
MISSISSAUGA — Jeremaine Copeland does not think there is any problem wanting the ball. And he does not think voicing that desire publicly should be a problem. "We're not supposed to … say we always want the ball, but that's just being a competitor," the Toronto Argonauts receiver said.

Where is the Forum for graphics such as Direct3D 11? Because I can't find the downloading of Conv3DS.exe that is a software which converts the files with type
".3ds" into files with type ".x", perhaps it is exceeded. Also, I want to have the new features (The file type

If possible, I want to know how did you do to convert ".max" into ".sdkmesh"(ID3DX11Mesh)

Fantastisk beliggenhed med charmerende gårdhave. Kunsten i lejligheden er unik og inspirerende.
The reservation was canceled 18 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
We arrived on a Sunday and were pleasantly greeted by Lizet, who was waiting for us at the agreed upon time.
She showed us into the property and promptly informed us the last guest had advised them there was an issue with the fridge, it smelled funny and making noise and someone would come by soon to look at it. Within 20 mins Lizet's father, the owner came by to assess the fridge. He determined it was broken, provided an electric cooler for the night. The following morning he arrived early with a new fridge, set it up and advised waiting time before use. Great customer service. J
We learned that Lizet's father did much of the woodwork in the apartment, which made it nice that we met him as his work has put so much wonderful character to the property. Everything is just as seen in the pictures, no false advertising. It was a lovely base to come back to after a day spent exploring Fumen and the islands. We'd settle in for the evening, relax, unwind and enjoy the atmosphere.
The garden is as much a pleasure as the apartment, whilst the weather did not allow us to really use it (we managed breakfast out once) it was a bit too fresh. It was always ordered, clean and tidy any fallen fruit apples and figs, even if they splattered when they fell would disappear by the next day leaving behind a clean clear path. I decided it was all done by elves, (discovered on the last day it was Lizet's father ).
In addition to all this it is very accessible, just outside the gate is the path to the parking, which is well lit and maintained, if you continue past the parking and cross over the road and you are at the harbour, 3 mins walk in the opposite direction is the Svenborg centre, within 5 mins you are at the train station.
I would highly recommend this property to anyone planning to visit Fumen/Svendborg.
Vi havde et dejligt ophold i lejligheden, som har en perfekt placering, skøn gårdhave og alt hvad man i øvrigt kan ønske sig. Kommunikationen med Lizet var uden problemer og vi kan varmt anbefale lejligheden.
Very good location and nice clean flat. A little on the small side though, if you require a lot of room for some reason.
Fast response from host.
Would recommend plus use again.
Lizet is quick to reply to every contact, and generously adjusted her schedule to mine when I asked to arrive a few hours later than the listing suggests. She agreed to meet me as I stepped off the train to guide me to the flat, just a few steps away but very welcome at the end of my busy day.
The flat was just as in the photos: clean, spacious, quiet and private, also with a very comfortable bed and sofa. The kitchen is fine for preparing meals. A late opening grocery store is only ten minutes away.
The neighbourhood has many galleries, restaurants and shops, with the tourist office at the top of the main street. Local producers hold a market on Wed and Sat in the square in front of the tourist office, but this may be seasonal.
I enjoyed a private and peaceful 10-day stay in this very pleasant and interesting town. Walking into the countryside from here is easy, also cycling, of course: bikes can easily be rented. Ferries are only steps away for day trips to the delightful nearby islands of Æro, Drejø and Skarø. Buses offer a good schedule for exploring the region around Svendborg.
Souvenir recommendation: for a Danish flag banner, many sizes are available at the nearby building supply store called "JS Byggecenter". They are inexpensive and very high quality. You'll see them flying from flagpoles and masts everywhere in Denmark.
We really enjoyed Lizetes house in Svendborg. Cool artistic place, close to shops, restaurants and even a small and lovely beach.
This is for those who want to empower their vacation with beautiful things.
Tack så mycket!

I don't know if anyone's pointed this out but...
1280x1024 does NOT create a distorted image if you are rending a 3d image. A 3d image could be rendered at 2048x384 and you would still be able to display it without any geometric distortion. The only thing that would change would be the ratio of horizontal to vertical pixel over a given area of the screen.
While a *3d* rendered image would not be geometrically distorted by simply rendering it at 1280x1024 (5:4 PIXEL ratio) and then displaying it over a SCREEN with a geometric ratio of 4:3, an image rendered at a resolution of 1280x1024 WOULD end up being geometrically distorted if you were to proceed to display that 1280x1024 "2d" image using a 4:3 pixel ratio RESOLUTION (1600x1200 for instance) on a screen with a 4:3 geometric ratio.
2d images on a 2d desktop of 1280x1024 (5:4 pixel ratio displayed over a 4:3 screen ratio) however, will appear to be vertically "squished" unless the said image content is specifically designed to be displayed over such a resolution and screen ratio.

Among the Intellectualoids
Mistaken Identity
In depicting terrorists, Hollywood is a gang that can't see straight.
While Sun Tsu counseled, "know thy enemy," Hollywood's motto appears to be, "look the other way."
In the popular television series about terrorism 24, those trying to kill hundreds of thousands in Los Angeles are Russian secessionists named Anton, James Nathanson (who's extremely Nordic looking), Ivan Erwich, Sergei, Polokov, Jacob Rossley, Victor Gregorin, Mikhail and Vladimir Bierko (played by British actor Julian Sands, of A Room With a View) -- most of them, blond.
Yup -- that's who we have to watch out for, those damn Scandinavians and Slavs.
What's more, a mole in counter-terrorism, a hit man sent to kill our hero, and the men who helped the terrorists acquire nerve gas (Christopher Henderson and National Security Adviser Walt Cummings) are all European Caucasians.
As Yogi Berra said, "It's too coincidental to be a coincidence."
It reminds me of actor Ben Affleck's explanation for why The Sum of All Fears replaced novelist Tom Clancy's Arab terrorists with neo-Nazis: "The Arab terrorist thing has been done a million times in the movies." (The actor's namesake, Michel Afleq, was a founder of Arab fascism.)
Actually, the makers of 24 might be on to something. In December, a Swedish terror suspect was picked up in Prague. So said all the headlines and the contents of the main stories. It took a bit of digging to find out that the man's name was Oussama, that he was Lebanese, and that our government accused him of being "bin Ladin's man in Sweden" and of setting up terrorist training in Oregon.
I'll grant you, it is a little hard to tell who the terrorists are. In the past few months, news reports have informed us that it was just "youths" who set off holocausts in 900 towns in France, and undefined "rioters" rampaging on the beaches of Sydney.
Better yet, the terrorists could be a race of invisible men -- superheroes -- like the unmentioned gang-rapists targeting improperly appareled women across Europe and Australia, and the mystery man who drove a rented SUV into a crowd on the University of North Carolina campus. Actually, credit must be given, where it's due. The Associated Press got very specific, about one man's identity, calling him "an exiled Saudi dissident." That's Osama bin Laden, in case you didn't recognize him.
WHEN IT'S NOT SLAVS AND Scandinavians, the bad guys are...us. In George Clooney's Syriana, American oilmen are determined to corrupt a benign Arab despot (read, Saddam), while his son, intent on democratizing the country, is killed -- along with his lovely family -- by a missile sent from CIA headquarters.
24 seems to be thinking along the same lines. The president's national security adviser helps terrorists acquire nerve gas for purely patriotic purposes -- part of a larger plan to ensure greater military spending and the freer flow of oil.
When it's not Big Oil, it's some other large company, the archvillains of quite a few recent films being multinational corporations. In fact, last year's much-praised Constant Gardener applies the phrase "axis of evil" to pharmaceutical companies.
Why, 24's most loathsome and bungling characters aren't any of the terrorists, but counter-terrorism head Lynn McGill and U.S. President Charles Logan, who asks his closest adviser to pray with him and is in cahoots with the terrorists.
Next thing you know, we'll have a terrorist named Judah or Christian.
In fact -- been there, done that. In Ridley Scott's movie about the Crusades, Kingdom of Heaven, a Christian beheads a Muslim hostage, the Christians execute Salahudine's sister (in reality, they released her), and Salahudine himself, picks up a crucifix from the ground and fondles it admiringly. Why, the Russian gang in 24 carries out staged executions for the TV cameras. I wonder where we've seen that!
Steven Spielberg does 'em one better. He avoids the terrorists altogether, and not-so-subtly blames Israel for 9/11 -- and, by extension, our soldiers for terrorism.
The closing shot of his Munich is a longing one of the newly built Twin Towers. "Had to show them," Spielberg told Time magazine, explaining that the Middle East's "cycle of violence" had reached our shores. He conveys his message that responding to terrorism is futile, by having his terrorists conduct a bombing campaign in response to their peers being put out of commission.
Indeed, the movie's Israeli protagonist, Avner, comes to realize "we have to do this not as a war, but within the legal system." To top it off, Avner fulfills the dream of Iran's president and other anti-Semites by abandoning Israel to find his home in Brooklyn.
To add insult to injury, we are barely shown the slaughter of the Israeli Olympians -- only at the end, glancingly, and interspersed with shots of Avner having rough sex -- and it's the movie's Jews who viciously gun down a kind Palestinian poetry translator, a doting father, a philosopher, and a beautiful Dutch prostitute. I told you we'd get a Judah. Actually, methinks we have a Judas, in our midst.
WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. The winner of this year's Golden Globe for best foreign film, Paradise Now, portrays Palestinian suicide bombers as Jesus-like and sanitizes their bombings. So, you see -- the Arab terrorists aren't our enemies, they're our saviors. In Syriana, too, the man who becomes a suicide bomber is the movie's most noble character. The newest entrant, V for Vendetta, puts it all together. The terrorists, called freedom fighters, blow up buildings to topple a fascist Christian tyranny that suppresses -- are you ready for this -- Islam.
Hold onto your hats, though. The first big movie in the works about 9/11 -- purportedly hailing that day's heroes -- is being directed by Oliver Stone, who called the 9/11 attacks a justified "revolt" against the established order and the six companies that control the world, compared Palestinians cheering 9/11 to celebrants of the French and Russian revolutions, and said 9/11 may have unleashed as much creative energy as the birth of Einstein.
"Hooray for Hollywood!"

The American Prospect[Madrick's] book is a thoroughgoing defense of government's role in the economy, written with the broad perspective of an economic historian rather than a mere policy polemicist. Thus, a book that could have been a thudding discourse on the efficiency of the French medical system instead takes us on a bracing survey of government's role as a driver—not merely an enabler—of a growing, fair, economy.

Are you still working on this?
Not much lately, although I have made some progress with improving the main menu, and added settings and a GUI. It's not very interesting so that's why there's no new screenshots or videos.
Looks cool!
This looks like minecraft meets Garrys mod! Time to play :D
Plz make for psp
I would like to create their weapons, animals, the main menu as well do the whole 3 D models, and even your game, this game would be a great editor! add the ability to make weapons, animals, weapons, or to add sounds to animals as well as the function to make the game on the menu, and then do an example of a model of the main character types of monsters and weapons as well as levels;
If this can the added to a mobile it can also be added to PSP as a homebrew. Played this yesterday and I was amazed how smooth it ran. Its amazing! I would surely want to use this game on the go, or even go to a party and showoff with this sweet game I got. Please add this to the Mobile Phones and PSP! And again, this is amazing, good job!
more than likely, this game requires too much resources to be able to put on a psp, which has a lousy 64mb at max ram and even less vram, if any is in original style psp's. another thing is the processing speed has a max of 333mhz, which means even a game made in game maker would most likely lag on psp if it could be converted to a psp format
Looks nice. Tried something like this in unity, but the lag was unbearable? this looks fairly smooth. How?
Also tracking.
If you were making a mobile game, that's why. If it was a pc game, maybe too many objects? But really, anything can cause lag - I had problems with just drawing the gui cutting the fps in half, then I used a different driver for it. Computers.

Raisel Ghul, the Demon's Head
Make that a thing.
1. How well he adjusts to the league's adjustment to him. Many new, young pitchers start off strong, simply because they are unknown. The league then figures them out, and adjusts. The good pitchers adjust to the adjustment, and so on.
2. His command. He's been able to get hitters to swing at his pitches, but the second time through the order, the Red Sox were laying off his "out" pitches. Wacha started walking guys then, and grooving other pitches. He's going to need better command if hitters are laying off his "out" pitches.
"Man, the pitch looks fast, even in slow motion." Thom Brennaman on Chapman's fastball.
Boston better hope that Big Papi can dig and field first as well as Napoli. Last night the infielders had him digging for catches and he made them.
Thanks for pointing out the injuries to Napoli because I completely forgot about why he's no longer catching. Since there is really no chance of him and Papi getting in the starting lineup in the same game, the advantage goes to St. Louis.
Unless he is a freak like Verlander (similar mechanics) Wacha is TJ waiting to happen with that motion of his.
The Rally Onion wants 150 fans before Opening Day.
malcontent (10-25-2013)
Isn't that almost true of any pitcher now that they're a TJ surgery waiting to happen? It seems like almost every pitcher has one now and a good chunk of them give their teams representative performance after it's done.
If Wacha turns out to falter in the future and needs TJ, it doesn't matter. What he has given the Cardinals this year in the playoffs was worth it and I'm sure he feels the same way.
RedTeamGo! (10-25-2013)
If I am the Mets I feel much better about Matt Harvey than the Red Sox feel about Clay Buchholz who looks like he might start down the Chris Carpenter path.

Product description
He thinks she's an annoying know-it-all Hugh Prentice has never had patience for dramatic females, and if Lady Sarah Pleinsworth has ever been acquainted with the words shy or retiring, she's long since tossed them out the window. Besides, even if Hugh did grow to enjoy her company, it wouldn't matter. A reckless duel has left this brilliant mathematician with a ruined leg, and now, unable to run, ride, or even waltz, he could never court a woman like Sarah, much less dream of marrying her.She thinks he's just plain mad Sarah has never forgiven Hugh for the duel he fought three years earlier, the one that forced her cousin into exile, nearly destroying her family. But even if she could find a way to forgive him, it wouldn't matter. She doesn't care that his leg is less than perfect, it's his personality she can't abide. But when the pair is forced to spend a week in close company, they discover that first impressions are not always reliable. And when one kiss leads to two, three, and four, the mathematician may lose count, and the lady may, for the first time, find herself speechless.

Single gene change increases mouse lifespan by 20%August 29, 2013 4:50 pm | News | Comments
By lowering the expression of a single gene, researchers at the National Institutes of Health have extended the average lifespan of a group of mice by about 20%—the equivalent of raising the average human lifespan by 16 years. The research team targeted a gene called mTOR, which is involved in metabolism and energy balance, and may be connected with the increased lifespan associated with caloric restriction.
3-D images show flame retardants can mimic estrogensAugust 19, 2013 10:22 am | News | Comments
By determining the 3-D structure of proteins at the atomic level, researchers at the National Institutes of Health have discovered how some commonly used flame retardants, called brominated flame retardants (BFRs), can mimic estrogen hormones and possibly disrupt the body's endocrine system.

Big, bad bacterium is an 'iron pirate'February 21, 2012 3:53 am | News | Comments
Life inside the human body sometimes looks like life on the high seas in the 1960s, when pirates hijacked foreign vessels in search of precious metals. For Neisseria bacteria, which can cause gonorrhea and meningitis, the booty is not gold or silver but plain old iron. Until recently, scientists did not understand how these bacterial snatch iron from healthy human cells, where a protein called transferrin bind the metal in a molecular bear hug.
