Modernity's God-shaped Hole
Caught between the perspectives of the scholar and the religious practitioner, Andrew Cooper explores the meaning of faith in a world fixated on reason.
It was at about this point that I realized I had long since crossed the line of propriety, so, with a chirpy "Well, anyway, everything went really well," I brought my verbal barrage to an abrupt halt. As I began my retreat, I saw the buckets fall away, as Roshi raised his most congenial smile and said, "Sure, sure, sure. The scholars must certainly be right. Everyone knows the transmission doesn't really go back to Buddha." Then, with a nod, he signaled for me to leave.
As it happened, that night Roshi gave his weekly lecture, and most of the conferees stayed on to attend. Midway through, he paused, glanced around the room, and, apropos of nothing that had gone before, growled, "There is one thing you must remember: Our Zen way is still the only lineage that goes back directly all the way to Shakyamuni Buddha."
Then, with buckets back in tow, he glared straight ahead, still as stone. After a long silence, he shrugged, rubbed his bald pate, and said sheepishly, "Well, where was I?" Then he returned to his topic.
Feeling caught in the crossfire of two valid yet contradictory perspectives—the historical perspective of the scholar and the mythic perspective of the religious practitioner—I sensed that I had stumbled onto a question of some significance, certainly personal significance and perhaps some wider significance as well. But had I been asked just what the question was, or why it was important, I would not have known what to say.
The French philosopher Paul Ricoeur writes that "enigma does not block understanding but provokes it," and this is how this question, over time, has done its work on me. It is as though it has its own field of gravity, which for years has held me in its orbit. As I have circled around it, I have seen it first from one angle, then another, formulating it first this way, then that. It is the sort of question that asks not for conceptual closure but for rich elaboration that broadens out into the social world and for knowledge that resonates deep in the recesses of the self.
In the collision of historical and mythic perspectives, a problem that lies at the heart of religious life in the modern world is brought into sharp relief. It is certainly not a problem unique to Buddhism. Indeed, it is probably felt with greatest acuity within the Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. No religious tradition is immune to it, and any religiously minded person confronts this problem, consciously or not, in one form or another.
In her excellent book The Battle for God, the religious historian Karen Armstrong describes the matter by enlisting the terms mythos and logos. These terms refer to the two great styles of human consciousness, the first concerned with meaning, the second with practical action and reason. According to Armstrong, prior to modernity, mythos and logos were held to be complementary aspects of human experience. But the modern period, marked by the predominance of rational thought, has discredited myth as a means of knowing the world, and our mythic sensibilities have, as a result, atrophied. The triumph of logos has left us to confront an indifferent universe, devoid of meaning or purpose. That has been the price we have paid for the astonishing successes of science and other forms of systematic reason. Jean-Paul Sartre described the existential impact of this state of affairs as the "God-shaped hole" in modern consciousness.

Rose Gentle, whose son Gordon was serving in the 1 Royal Highland Fusiliers, said the fact sensitive extracts of exchanges between the then Prime Minister and US president are to be held back would fail to answer many of their questions.
Years of negotiations over the release of the "vital" material, which includes 25 notes from Mr Blair to Mr Bush and more than 130 records of conversations between the men in the run-up to the war, have caused delays to the Chilcot report into the invasion.
Under the agreement that has now been thrashed out, the information being disclosed will be limited to "quotes or gists" and the inquiry's use of the material "should not reflect president Bush's views".
But Mrs Gentle, of Pollok, Glasgow, said: "It's not surprising really [they will remain secret], but the families are a bit disappointed because these letters are the most important thing to let us understand why we did go into Iraq."
Her son was blown up by a roadside bomb as he travelled in an armoured LandRover in 2004, but she still has many questions about the justification for the conflict and wanted to know what Mr Blair and Mr Bush were saying to each other at the time.
She added: "When we are talking about people's lives, like my son's life, we should have the right to see these letters."
The deal was struck by the government's top civil servant Sir Jeremy Heywood, who was principal private secretary to Mr Blair at the time, and inquiry chairman Sir John Chilcot.
In a letter, Sir John told the cabinet secretary: "I appreciate that the inquiry's requests for disclosure raised difficult issues of long-standing principle, which have taken some months to resolve: recognition of the wholly exceptional nature of this inquiry has allowed that to happen.
"My colleagues and I judge that this material is vital to the public understanding of the inquiry's conclusions."
Sir John said some "potential gaps" in material had been identified which had now been addressed, "including some material received by the inquiry very recently".
The inquiry completed public hearings in 2011 and there is criticism over the delay in releasing the report. The publication date is yet to be agreed.
Mr Blair insists he was not the reason for the delay and called for the letters to be published.
A Cabinet Office spokesman said: "The government is pleased that agreement on a way forward on both cabinet papers and UK/US exchanges has now been reached with the inquiry.""

Q: I am in a stable job (as stable as employment goes) but am considering moving for higher salary and better advancement prospects.
Given the world wide economic situation, and in particular the looming US budget threat, is there a high risk in moving into a new job now?
A: When I read your question (and re-read your question), initially I could only reply with one question: "Where is my crystal ball?" Unfortunately, I don't have a crystal ball. I wish I did! I will have to talk with my editor at www.boston.com about that request!
Stability in a current role is valuable right now. I know many unemployed individuals who would likely view your current situation with envy. There is always a risk when you change jobs and/or companies. However, sometimes these risks can pay off.
However, many professionals often keep the door open in the event another opportunity presents itself. It is a smart tactic. We live and work in uncertain times. No one can predict the future. However, you can proactively prepare yourself should you encounter uncertainty in your current role.
You raise a related and important topic. Successful job hunters often have a robust and active network EVEN before they launch a job search. What do I mean? Be smart by growing your professional network each and every day, not just when you are job hunting. Become active on LinkedIn. Connect and re-connect with colleagues both on-line and in person. Ensure that your skills are current. Dust off your resume and look at it with a fresh eye. Does it represent you well? If not, consider giving it a tune-up. Use social media to broaden your network and reach out to new contacts or associations. Never say no to an introduction within your field.
Now about getting my hands on that crystal ball...

In a small pot, scald ½ cup milk; stir in 3 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, and 3 tablespoons butter. Cool to lukewarm. In mixer bowl, dissolve 2 packages dry yeast in 1 ½ cups warm water. Add lukewarm milk mixture and 4 ½ cups flour. If you have a stand mixer, attach bowl to mixer and insert dough hook. Mix on low speed for 2 minutes, until well-blended. Continuing at low speed, add remaining flour, ½ cup at a time, until dough clings to dough hook and cleans sides of bowl, about 3 minutes. Knead on low speed for 7 to 10 minutes longer, or until dough is smooth and elastic. Dough will be slightly sticky to the touch. Place in a greased bowl, turning to grease top.
Part II—Rising and Baking: (to be uploaded later)
Cover greased dough with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking oil spray, and let rise in a warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Punch down dough. Let dough rest for 15 minutes. Divide dough into two equal halves. Shape each half into a loaf. Place each loaf into a greased 9-inch by 5-inch by 3-inch loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking oil spray. Let rise in warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Bake at 400 degrees F for 30 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from pans, and cool on wire racks. Serve hot with butter. YUM! I hope you enjoy the Fresh Baked White Bread! Love, Betty

Beautiful Proof 1855 Half Cent1855 1/2 C PR64 Brown NGC. B-1, C-1, R.1. High R.5 as a proof. As there is only one known die variety for all half cents dated 1855, including both coins struck for circulation and others struck as proofs, we can make an assumption that all of these were probably struck in or very near the time of issue. This precludes the necessity of determining whether this is an original or restrike. Probably about 40 proof 1855 half cents are known. Walter Breen suggested 35 to 40 are known, and we feel that estimate is slightly low. This example has excellent chestnut brown surfaces with pale blue toning. Traces of original orange mint color may be seen on the reverse. (#1326) (Registry values: P2) (NGC ID# 26ZW, PCGS# 1326)

The Saybrook Forum
Tweet 911!!!11/16/2010
Sometimes the hardest part of an emergency is knowing where to turn. When something goes wrong, what do you do? Calling "911" is an option that most of us know by rote, and it's a great choice – help is often just a phone call away.
But the 911 system, like most of our Emergency Management (EM) systems, was designed for the analog age, and according to a recent article in governing magazine, emergency services organizations around the country are asking if the social networking tools of the digital age might set the next standard for emergency communication in the 21st century.
According to the article:
It's been almost a decade since 9/11, but our multi-billion-dollar efforts to improve public safety departments' communication have yielded very few results. In fact, during the 2005 Hurricane Katrina relief work, some emergency personnel had to resort to communicating by running handwritten notes back and forth. While the feds continue to try and figure out a way to utilize public safety radio for emergencies, some states and localities have come up with solutions of their own.
Saybrook Organizational Systems alumnus David Williams, PhD is a leading consultant to emergency service organizations and health care systems around the globe. He was also responsible for publishing the leading comparative data survey of the nation's largest EMS services, and helped design and develop the national EMS conference for operational leaders.
From this vantage point, Williams says that what's most noticeable about social media and is not that it's replacing traditional forms of EMS service …. you still want to call 911 … but how effectively it's doing what social media is supposed to do: better connecting one group of people, like emergency service providers, with the people they want to stay in touch with ... the public and their patients.
Saybrook introduces certificate program in Existential-Humanistic therapy11/16/2010
Saybrook University was founded on the premise that the human element is crucial to human interactions ... like therapy. The therapeutic encounter is at its best when the therapist and patient have a strong and vital connection, and weakest when it reduces the patient's humanity to a check-list of symptoms.
Mainstream therapy may finally be catching up. In a review for the APA of Saybrook alumnus and faculty member Kirk Schneider's recent book Existential-Integrative Therapy, leading researcher Bruce Wampold noted that:
"an understanding of the principles of existential therapy is needed by all therapists, as it adds a perspective that might …form the basis for all effective treatments" (PsycCritiques, February 6, 2008, p.6).
Wampold's findings along with others place E-H therapy squarely at the center of psychological theory and practice. Now Saybrook, long the leader in humanistic graduate programs, is partnering with the Existential Humanistic Institute, EHI, to offer a new and unprecedented certificate program in existential-humanistic therapy.
LIOS alumna directs documentary on gender roles in suburbia11/16/2010
Put This On The (Map) is a new documentary training film that features 26 young people from East King County re-teaching traditional notions of gender and sexuality. The film was co-produced/directed by Megan Kennedy (LIOS 2004) and Sid Jordan Peterson (University of Victoria - 2004). Kennedy is the Outreach Supervisor at Youth Eastside Services where she provides individual and group counseling for gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, queer/questioning youth. Peterson was the Director of the Kirkland Teen Union Building in 2008, when Kennedy and Peterson embarked collaboratively on their mission to create a local community where all people have the opportunity of success regardless of their sexuality and gender.
Put This On The (Map) documents young people who challenge their suburban community to do more than sweep their existence under the rug. Fed up with a lack of queer visibility, youth provide an honest evaluation of their schools and families. Professing expertise over their own lives - from getting beat-up in a schoolyard to being picked up as a runaway - we learn that queer youth in the suburbs exercise courage daily.

WARNING: daydreaming may be hazardous to your (mental) health11/16/2010
Do you suddenly find yourself thinking about that argument you had last night or dreaming about leaving your job to live in Belize?
We think of daydreaming as a pleasant pastime, but research suggests that letting your mind wander may actually be a downer. According to Harvard researchers Matthew Killingsworth and Daniel Gilbert, bringing your mind back to the present moment will make you happier.
Killingsworth and Gilbert's research method was novel: they reached out to participants via a digital application that was accessible online at www.trackyourhappiness.org and an Iphone app, getting about 5,000 research subjects involved. Participants ranged in age from 18 to 88 years and represented diverse income and occupational backgrounds. About 70 percent of the participants were Americans.
The project was simple but revealing. At random times during the day the app would chime in and ask three questions:
- How do you feel right now? Participants could then respond on a scale ranging from very bad to very good.
- What are you doing? Participants could select from a list of 22 different activities, such as exercising, making love, sleeping etc.
- Are you thinking about something other than what you are doing at the moment? They could answer either no or yes and if what they were thinking about was pleasant, neutral or unpleasant.
Overall 46.9 percent respondents reported they were basically daydreaming!
Sometimes the annoying hipster parents are right11/15/2010
White picket fences….suburban windy roads…..and two Pamper smelling Gerber babies; add two parents and you have a family of four. Mom stays at home, practices attachment parenting and Dad leaves at eight each morning in his suit and returns promptly at five. Welcome to the modern idealized family: a figment of the imagination.
An estimated six-percent of families in the United States come from two parent single income households. Yet this is held as the gold standard for raising healthy, competent, and successful children. If, God forbid, a child struggles during his teenage years, poor mom's "choice" to work is blamed.
A recent Wall Street Journal article highlighted the illusions inherent in the idealized version of the modern family. Poignantly coining the term Motherphillia, the article speaks to the delusion of motherhood and family life displayed on television, in the tabloids, and in society's psyche. For all we think family life should be like a 21st century version of Ozzie and Harriet, the demands on mothers and fathers only seem to be growing, with the latest hip expectations of cloth diapers, homemade baby foods, and – the newest fad – attachment parenting.
Actually, though, that last one may not be so bad. Attachment parenting is new, but its roots go deep into efective, and humanistic, approaches to parenting.

Global summits don't have to be so useless11/12/2010
The leaders of nineteen of the world's most powerful nations are meeting this week in North Korea at the G-20 summit. They're negotiating about international financial stability, trade, currency, and shared responsibilities.
With the worst economic situation in decades tensions are high and risks are enormous, and the United States comes to the table after making new regulatory moves that have many nations concerned.
In the midst of international and domestic upheaval, great changes are undeniably warranted. The scary part is: summits like this are notorious for not accomplishing much. This morning, Time, released a report entitled "Pessimism pervades at the G-20 summit." Scary, right? At a time like this, as a nation and a world we cannot afford "cat fights" between our most powerful leaders.
We should be able to do better, and there are ways we can – if we can admit that the old approaches to international cooperation are often ineffective and commit to a new approach.
There's a right way, and a lot of wrong ways, to heal a veteran11/11/2010
November 11th 2010 is Veteran's Day in the United States – but despite the call to honor our soldiers, most people will be talking about recession and the recent elections.
Whether we talk about them or not, however, there are still many men and women who are overseas, entrenched in one of the most life altering events that we humans can put ourselves through – war. Life altering may be a slightly pacifying way to say traumatizing, and the experience in being in a war forever shapes an individual, their families and their futures.
While we've mostly put the troops in the field out of our minds, there have been more stories recently about returning troops: stories that reflect the potential struggles that loved ones, children, schools, businesses and entire communities must deal with when a soldier comes home. Today we as a nation seem far more conscious oandr aware of the psychological and social aftermath of combat. Their trauma is set to echo for generations as it did for the families and children of the previous U.S. wars.
Stories about soldiers who have committed suicide have been getting far more attention than they ever did in previous wars.
Meditate - for life!11/10/2010
We know that meditating can improve your quality of life; what we didn't know is that it can also help you live longer.
Researchers at the University of California, Davis and the University of California San Francisco have found a link between meditation practice and the long-term health – and the results are positive. The study "Intensive meditation training, immune cell telomerase activity, and psychological mediators" was published in the November 2010 issue of Psychoneuroendocrinology.
Meditation has been shown to reduce stress and an individuals' ability to cope with stress. In the practice of meditation, we can gain greater insight into ourselves. We can see our anger, stress and pain alongside our joy and happiness. Thich Nhat Hanh (Thây) speaks about the practice of meditation as being a pathway to becoming more aware of who we are and who we are in relation to others and the world around us.Knowing who we are can lead us to understanding the presence of stress, anger and pain in our lives…and we can begin to move through it all with greater ease as the meditation practice continues. This leads back to the research.

Maria Bubb, a substitute teacher in Garrett's classroom in October and November of 2008, said in the court documents that the staff was "mean and degrading" to Garrett, and that Kallies would "point her finger in his face and scream at him."
Other teachers testified that they saw Garrett's head held under running water and witnessed him being forced to sit in his feces for hours, not just a few minutes, as the teacher's aides suggest.
Randy Tarum, the attorney representing the Schillings, said that since news of the charges against Parish and Kallies were made public, several other families in the school district who have children with special needs have come forward with claims of alleged abuse, some against the same two teacher's aides.
"I have about 14 other families who have kids who have been subjected, in one way or another, to different schools in the district," Tarum said of the allegations. "The abuse comes in varying degrees, and not every child says they were tortured."
Tarum said that one family said their child was slapped or that behavior devices such as restraints were often misused in special education classrooms. One mother said that she noticed that her daughter, who has cerebral palsy, was missing chunks of hair on her head, a result of what she believes was the punishment of getting dragged across the floor, Tarum said, declining to say if the charged teacher's aides were involved in either of these alleged incidents.
So far, Tarum said, he has not received any feedback from the school district. Repeated calls and messages left for the school district's attorney, Jean Faure, were not immediately returned.
Tarum said that while the criminal case brought forth by the state is proceeding, he is working to change the way the school system treats special education students before filing a lawsuit on behalf of his clients.
"We're trying to work with the school district," Tarum said. "We're asking them to identify the children that may have been in contact with these teachers."
Tarum has also requested that school district officials bring in outside experts to counsel them on how they can improve the district's special education program.
"A lawsuit is not a great fix for the system, and we're trying to fix the system," Tarum said.
As for Garrett, his mother said that while he has since been re-enrolled in a different special education program at an area high school, he is still suffering from the alleged abuse he endured at North Middle School.
"Garrett lives in a world of fear," she said. "He doesn't understand that when we take him to new places, people won't abuse him.
"He's a great kid. He loves to swing outside and play with his toys with his brother," she said. "He's a really wonderful, outgoing kid and it's just been devastating to see what's happening to him."
Schilling said she is worried that Garrett's younger brother, Brandon, who also has Fragile X syndrome, could go through a similar experience if the school system is not improved.
"I trusted those teachers, I never in a million years thought this would happen," Schilling said of the allegations. "If I don't change things now this could all happen to Brandon, too."

The yellow-gold surfaces of this VF25 example possess a slight green cast, and yield hints of luster in the protected areas. The design features exhibit nice detail, and the dentilation is strong, especially on the reverse. The few minute marks that are present are not bothersome. Overall, a rather pleasing early gold ten dollar piece.(Registry values: P3) (NGC ID# 25ZY, PCGS# 8559)

I just tried that, and there wasn't any change...not only of time, but the load screen and the rest of the sequence was exactly the same as before.
Other than that, try new drivers for all your hardware, if that fails, try going back to the standard WDDM drivers from Microsoft. That's fiddly and time consuming and I'd only do that after a backup if it's your main rig.
I have a hunch that the problem is with some driver, but which is the question. Long ago, there was a program call boot configurator, or something like that, that timed the loading of each and every driver, so it was easy to see where the slowdown was. Unfortunately, I don't think that there is anything like that now.
Msconfig's boot tab also has options Boot Log and OS Boot Info, which I also tried, thinking it might provide some info like the program that I just mentioned, but after rebooting, I looked around the files and found nothing that appeared to be related. The only thing that seems to work on the boot tab is the window for setting the default boot entry in a multi-boot setup.

Seroepidemiology of Toxoplasma gondii infection in pregnant women in a public hospital in northern Mexico
1 Faculty of Medicine, Juárez University of Durango State (UJED). Durango, Mexico
2 General Hospital of Durango City, Secretary of Health. Durango, Mexico
3 Institute for Scientific Research, UJED. Durango, Mexico
4 Institute for Infection Medicine. Free University of Berlin, Germany
BMC Infectious Diseases 2006, 6:113 doi:10.1186/1471-2334-6-113Published: 13 July 2006
Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infection in pregnant women represents a risk for congenital disease. There is scarce information about the epidemiology of T. gondii infection in pregnant women in Mexico. Therefore, we sought to determine the prevalence of T. gondii infection and associated socio-demographic, clinical and behavioural characteristics in a population of pregnant women of Durango City, Mexico.
Three hundred and forty three women seeking prenatal care in a public hospital of Durango City in Mexico were examined for T. gondii infection. All women were tested for anti-T. gondii IgM and IgG antibodies by using IMx Toxo IgM and IMx Toxo IgG 2.0 kits (Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, IL, USA), respectively. Socio-demographic, clinical and behavioural characteristics from each participant were also obtained.
Twenty one out of the 343 (6.1%) women had IgG anti-T. gondii antibodies. None of the 343 women had IgM anti-T. gondii antibodies. Multivariate analysis using logic regression showed that T. gondii infection was associated with living in a house with soil floor (adjusted OR = 7.16; 95% CI: 1.39–36.84), residing outside of Durango State (adjusted OR = 4.25; 95% CI: 1.72–10.49), and turkey meat consumption (adjusted OR = 3.85; 95% CI: 1.30–11.44). Other characteristics as cat contact, gardening, and food preferences did not show any association with T. gondii infection.
The prevalence of T. gondii infection in pregnant women of Durango City is low as compared with those reported in other regions of Mexico and the majority of other countries. Poor housing conditions as soil floors, residing in other Mexican States, and turkey meat consumption might contribute to acquire T. gondii infection.

56 year old man | Evans, GA, USA | Seeking women 43-52 within 20 miles
Ready to Start Again; let's be friends
. I am an active, dynamic, adventurous, educated, recently divorced professional looking for women friends who are into sipping wine, dining out, attending cultural events, playing and watching sports, travel, and snuggling on the couch. I'm not necessarily looking for a long-term relationship right now, but if the right person came along I would not squander the opportunity to bond with a new soul mate. I loved being married, and eventually I want to be married again. One of my favorite lines of poetry is "Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be". I want to find someone to grow old with. But before we grow old, there's a lot of living to do. I love the outdoors. I have been an avid golfer since I was 12. I am a distance runner as well, and competed at the high school and college level. I like the feeling of being in shape. I also enjoy camping, fishing, boating, canoeing, and shooting at the range. I prefer the mountains over the beach. I enjoy traveling, and I do a lot. I have lived on 4 continents and in at least 15 states in the US. I am an upstate New York Yankee by birth, but I have spent about 2/3 of my life in the South. I consider the South my home. I've lived in Augusta for 16 years. I use Augusta as the base from which to take 1-2 (short) international trips per year. I am a practicing Catholic. I was taught that the word "Christian" means "Christ-like", and that we should try to emulate Him. But I am not a religious zealot.I believe God is there, and we need him in our lives. I would like to share that with my partner. Another Catholic would be nice, but not essential. I enjoy women who smile easily but who are not necessarily the life of the party.

VIDEO: Boos And A Blooper For A-Rod
By Mark Memmott
Originally published on Tue August 6, 2013 8:13 am
Here's a better look and listen to what it was like Monday night in Chicago when New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez returned to the lineup on the same day he was hit with a 211-game suspension for allegedly using performance-enhancing substances (he can play while he appeals that punishment).
As we said last night, he got the kind of greeting you would expect from an opposing team's crowd: plenty of boos. A-Rod managed to get a hit his first time up — a bloop single to left field. It was his only hit of the evening. The Yankees lost to the White Sox, 8-1.

Welsh singer Sir Tom Jones was "incredibly nervous" and apologetic as he made his small screen acting debut, according to his co-star Brenda Blethyn.
The veteran crooner enjoyed a small cameo appearance in Tim Burton's 1996 comedy Mars Attacks! playing himself, but he put his acting skills to the test with a starring role in recent one-off British TV drama King of the Teds.
And Blethyn reveals the pop star was full of nerves as they filmed.
She tells Britain's Yours magazine, "Tom had never acted before and was incredibly nervous. He just kept saying 'sorry' during the reading of the play and asking if he was doing right. We said he was doing fine and tried to reassure him and calm his nerves.
"He's a peach. He is such a gent and so down to earth. There's nothing egotistical about him. It was so refreshing that someone who is a megastar is so lovely and amenable."

Earth Day is themed around "A billion acts of green", a campaign to get people around the world to perform a billion separate acts of environmental service.
The first Earth Day, on April 22, 1970, got 20 million Americans from all walks of life involved in the environment and is widely credited with launching the modern environmental movement.
The passage of the landmark Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act and many other groundbreaking environmental laws soon followed.

Festival of Magic concept art dump + personal art
Hey everyone! It's been quite some time since I was on here. Hope you all are well!
I've been working with a company called SnowCastle Games for the last three years, and I wanted to show you guys some of the stuff I've been up to!
The game we're working on, Festival of Magic, is fairly stylised and differs a lot from the stuff I do in my spare time and for freelance clients so that contrast in my day-job work and my off hours stuff is fun! Sorta feeds into each other I guess.
Anyway, enough with the writing and on with the showing stuff!
[edit] forgot the personal pieces [/edit]
Here are a few pieces I did after reading "Perdido Street Station". The imagery China Miéville evokes in that book really struck a chord with me, so here are some results!
There's a bunch more stuff floating around from Festival of Magic, so I'll come back and update the thread soon!
Thanks for stopping by!

More than just a carbon copy: The reaction of a phospha-Wittig–Horner reagent with diacetylenic ketones (see scheme) results in a cascade of reactions that can lead to both an oxaphosphole-terminated cumulene system and an alkene-bridged bis-phosphole. The reaction outcome is determined by the nature of the acetylene termini, with phenyl groups stabilizing a carbene intermediate that dimerizes to give the bis-phosphole product.

Dennis Tito, space tourist, may travel to Mars in 2018
Man's first trip to Mars may happen much sooner than previously thought.
According to various reports, the non-profit organization Inspiration Mars Foundation will announce plans to fly the first humans to Mars in 2018.
The Inspiration Mars Foundation, founded by millionaire Dennis Tito — who is considered the world's first space tourist — is widely considered the most ambitious private space company to date. Tito's organization is now planning to send a human to Earth's closet planetary neighbor within the next five years. A press conference set for Feb. 27 is expected to announce the trip along with more details about its 501-day mission set for launch in January 2018.
"This 'Mission for America' will generate new knowledge, experience and momentum for the next great era of space exploration," said officials from the Inspiration Mars Foundation. "It is intended to encourage all Americans to believe again, in doing the hard things that make our nations great, while inspiring youth through Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education and motivation."
This is not the first time Tito has made headlines for his desire to travel the universe. In 2001 he became the first space tourist to visit the International Space Station. Tito reportedly spent $20 million to stay aboard the Russian Soyuz spacecraft for eight days, visiting astronauts from the U.S. and Russia.
Tito, along with a host of other scientists and business owners, will take part in a February 27 news conference. The speakers will include the CEO and president of the Paragon Space Development Corp. and a space-medicine expert from the Baylor College of Medicine. While it has not been confirmed that the Inspiration Mars Foundation is planning a trip to the Red Planet, some reports say it is very likely given the line-up of speakers scheduled from the conference.
Fueling the mission to Mars rumors, NewSpace Journal reports Tito will appear at an aerospace conference in Montana on March 3 to discuss how manned missions to Mars could be accomplished by 202. According to the NewSpace Journal, Tito's paper includes many details about the potential Mars mission.
Tito's paper reportedly says the mission will be a crewed free-return Mars mission that would fly by Mars, but not go into orbit around the planet or land on it. This 501-day mission would launch in January 2018, using a modified SpaceX Dragon spacecraft launched on a Falcon Heavy rocket," the NewSpace Journal reported. The journal also said the paper mentioned that only two people could go on the mission because of the environmental control and life support system (ECLSS) technology available today.
The paper says the planned mission to Mars would be cheaper than previous estimates of a trip to the Red Planet. It also says the trip will be privately financed, but did not release an estimated cost of the mission.
Right now, one of the most pressing issues is not how to get the astronauts to Mars, but how to the keep them healthy during their journey. Experts say long missions in space cause physiological and psychological problems in astronauts. Currently, space agencies avoid this by only allowing them to be in space for six months. In order to carry out a 501-day mission, more research would need to be done on the effect the trip would have on the astronauts.
The planned announcement comes as a number of private organizations have announced plans to travel to Mars within the next twenty years. A number of companies have put forth plans that include preliminary research missions that will rely on rovers to explore potential landing sites and collect information on surface conditions.

Battered turtle bounces back to good health
By Harvey Rice | January 15, 2012
Photo By James NielsenWith assistance from NOAA and Texas A&M Galveston, this Kemp's ridley sea turtle, which was found severely injured last year by some fishermen, can now see visitors before he eventually goes back to open waters.
Photo By James NielsenKimberly Reich, head of the Sea Turtle and Fisheries Ecology Research Lab, shows off a turtle carapace that was brought into the U.S. illegally.
GALVESTON - The small Kemp's ridley turtle looked miserable. His carapace was cracked, his lungs were damaged, his front right flipper was gone, a chunk was missing from the edge of his shell and he had pneumonia.
Two fishermen caught the battered turtle in their net July 24 and brought it to Surfside police, who called the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Sea Turtle Facility in Galveston.
The turtle was nursed back to health and transferred last week to the new $3 million Sea Life Facility at Texas A&M Galveston, where the public will have a rare opportunity to view an endangered species.
The lab - part of a $43 million, 110,000 square-foot Ocean and Coastal Studies building that opened last year - is one of only three on the Gulf Coast and is the most advanced, said Kimberly Reich, Marine Research Facility manager and head of the Sea Turtle and Fisheries Ecology Research Lab. Scientists at other universities are already queuing up for a space to conduct research at the lab, she said.
Meanwhile, the rescued turtle can be viewed through a glass window in the lobby near the Sea Life Facility, open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. It lives in a specially designed turtle tank with a constant current and a piece of plastic pipe that serves as a turtle house.
Reich said the university is in the process of transforming the now bare lobby into a sea life museum that will include numerous exhibits, including a large screen that will monitor sea creatures in 12 tanks in the state-of-the-art research lab.
Ben Higgins, sea turtle program manager at NOAA's Fort Crockett facility in Galveston, said the turtle is healthy enough to return to the wild but can't be released until the weather is warm enough. Transferring the turtle to Texas A&M frees tank space at the sea turtle facility for other injured turtles, Higgins said.
The NOAA sea turtle facility takes care of injured turtles found from Sabine Pass to the Brazos River. "It's like a 911 for sea turtles," said Higgins, who took the turtle to Joe Flanagan, director of veterinary services at the Houston Zoo.
"He is at least two years old. Probably three or four," said Flanagan, who receives three to four dozen injured turtles from NOAA each year.
Reich says the turtle is being fed squid and shrimp injected with nutrients and that eventually he will be given live food, such as blue crab, that he will have to catch to prepare him for release into the wild.
The turtle doesn't have a name yet. Classes of Houston-area children are being asked to submit ideas and a winner will be drawn in April, said Carole Allen, Gulf Coast Director of the Sea Turtle Restoration Project.
Teachers can send class entries for the naming contest to P.O. Box 681231, Houston, TX, 77268-1231. The turtle can be viewed online at http://www.galveston.com/turtlecam/ or http://www.galveston.com/turtlevideocam/

Ford has issued yet another recall over faulty door latches, this time affecting the Fiesta, Fusion, and Lincoln MKZ from model years 2012 to 2014.
Sure, the new Fiesta ST and 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine took the majority of 2014 Fiesta-related headlines, but that doesn't mean the rest of the range was left untouched. As you can see, styling has been updated, most notably up front, where a new fascia brings the pint-size hatch in line with the well-received Fusion. There will also be a new palette of colors and graphics for owners to personalize.
