Keep on fighting, Ms. Salyers!
Appeal possible
Lawsuit that triggered Ohio State scandal dismissed
By Stewart Mandel, SI.com
A judge in Columbus, Ohio, on Monday dismissed the lawsuit that precipitated the firing of Ohio State men's basketball coach Jim O'Brien and the ongoing NCAA investigation into the Buckeyes' basketball program.
Kathleen Salyers, a Columbus-area housekeeper, had sued Ohio State boosters Dan and Kim Roslovic, for whom she had provided babysitting and cleaning services, claiming they reneged on a verbal agreement to pay her $1,000 a month plus reimburse expenses if she would provide for former Ohio State player Boban Savovic during his career with the Buckeyes.
Salyers and other witnesses testified that she supported Savovic throughout his 1998-2002 career, often housing him several nights a week. She claimed to have spent over $100,000 on food, clothing, cell phone bills, airline tickets and weekly spending money for the player, causing her to go into debt and take out a second mortgage when the Roslovics failed to compensate her.
Savovic initially lived with the Roslovics, who are now divorced, but he was forced by Ohio State to move out because the arrangement constituted an NCAA violation.
The suit was originally filed in 2003, then dropped and re-filed last summer; it was scheduled to go to trial in August. In granting the defense's motion for summary judgment, Judge Alan C. Travis, an OSU law school graduate, cited the Ohio Statute of Frauds, which states any fixed contract that extends beyond one year must be in writing.
Salyers' attorney, Jeffrey Lucas, contended the length of the contract was indeterminate and therefore did not fall under the fraud statute.
"We're very disappointed as to the judge's ruling," Lucas said. "The judge dismissed it because he believes the contract that was made with Kathleen was for a four-year period and was not for an indeterminate amount of time as we said in our response to the [motion]. We said it was month to month and could have been terminated at will."
Both Dan and Kim Roslovic claimed they never had a formal agreement with Salyers, though Kim admitted in depositions she helped pay for trips to Hawaii for Savovic and gave occasional spending money to the player, with whom she admitted having a brief sexual affair.
"There has never been any support for claims against my client, and this decision proves that," said Kris Dawley, Dan Roslovic's attorney. "There's never been any contract. We've said it from the very first day."
Lucas said he and Salyers are "looking at all of our options, and I anticipate we will probably appeal the decision." Salyers, however, citing her financial difficulties, said, "I honestly don't know if I can take another one-to-three years of this.
"It's frustrating when you sit down and tell the truth so many times, and you ... depend on the opportunity to present the case to the jury with all the facts,'' Salyers said. "Many times in my deposition I explained that the contract was [to last] for Boban's Ohio State experience. The contract could have ended before he ever started school. It could have ended when Boban's visa expired in September before his freshman year. It could have ended with a phone call from Dan or Kim Roslovic saying they no longer wanted to support Boban. It could have ended if he failed out of school. And I said these things in my deposition."
It was in those same depositions that Salyers first made numerous allegations against the Ohio State basketball program that the NCAA is now investigating. One was that O'Brien gave $6,000 to former recruit Aleksandar Radojevic, whom Salyers met through Savovic and befriended. O'Brien admitted to the violation and was subsequently fired last June (he has since sued for wrongful termination). The school later banned itself from the 2005 postseason as punishment.
Salyers also claimed to have witnessed illegal contact between OSU players and NBA agents; that she and others wrote academic papers for Savovic; and that then-assistant coach Paul Biancardi, now the head coach at Wright State, twice ordered her to persaude professors to change failing grades for Savovic. Her financial support of Savovic, if proved true, violates the NCAA's extra benefits rules for athletes.
Savovic, now playing professionally overseas, issued a statement last summer claiming Salyers "gave me occasional pocket money" but said that he lived with her for only "approximately four to five weeks" after leaving the Roslovics and denied many of her other allegations.
In the weeks before the lawsuit's dismissal, Salyers had deposed several key witnesses, including Biancardi, who denied all allegations against him. Another witness, Mike Sierawski, a past president of the local Serbian church who befriended Savovic when he first arrived in Columbus, said he gave Savovic $500 when the player was told by Ohio State he had to reimburse the Roslovics in order to restore his eligibility. Sierawski also claimed Biancardi asked him to buy pants for Radojevic and provide spending money during one of the athlete's visits to Columbus.
Ohio State athletic director Andy Geiger, who retired last month, told the Cleveland Plain Dealer in February that the NCAA could charge the school with lack of institutional control.

There aren't many people up at this time. Those of you who are in the UK are probably still nestled safely in your beds. The far reaches of Europe may be beginning to stir, but only a small portion of those are soaking up their gaming news on the internet. Those of you in North America are either knee-deep in hour 2 of their daily gaming session, so quite why Microsoft opted for this time to release their latest embargo for the recent Crackdown 2 event, I'll never know. I guess this one's for our Australian and Far East friends for now.
Regardless of your location in the world though, we're heading back to Pacific City with a brand new batch of 12 screens to kick start your day wherever you are. The 12 screens include the typical stuff you'd expect with Crackdown 2, including explosions, mutants, helicopters and some bungee grenades. Everyday stuff then in Pacific City!

Bacon-wrapped"...at least this always gets my attention on a menu.
If it's one thing I can't live without, it's laughter. Whether it's going out to a nice dinner and appreciating some fine wine, or sipping on some coffee at a local shop, I enjoy having a good conversation about anything and a good laugh. I'm a sucker for sarcasm, wit, and comedy. It's the simple things in life. I'm very down to earth but still enjoy philosophizing about life. I tend to live in the moment, as I love to be around friends, socializing, and simply having fun. I'm driven to becoming an entrepreneur and professional engineer. My goal in life is to use my engineering skills in a more tangible sense: to help people in needy countries. It would be very self-satisfying to know that my skills can be applied to help children in the third world. I do like to forget about those things sometimes and have a prolific "today" instead of a worrisome "tomorrow". I tend to be goofy, quirky and enjoy a good laugh, but I know when to be serious and supportive. I love exploring new areas and ideas, traveling, enjoying the outdoors, playing sports, dancing the night away, and listening to any types of music. A bit about my background. I'm 100% Polish, but born in New Mexico of all places. It was a great place to grow up but I'm glad I'm out of there. I went to undergrad in Chicago at Northwestern University and I loved every minute of it, except the subzero degree weather. I moved to Austin to get my master's and now I'm living in DC and really enjoying this town so far. I've traveled to about 25 countries and speak three, almost four languages fluently. Oh, and I probably grabbed your attention because of the bacon in my title...I love to cook. What I'm looking for in my date is someone that enjoys living in the moment, yet still knows how to plan ahead. Someone who is willing to explore new restaurants, yet still enjoys enjoy a home-cooked meal. I would appreciate my date to have a sense of balance, to be able to stand on one foot and not fall over...But in all seriousness, balance as in to be able to go out to a bar with friends on a Friday night and stay in to watch a movie on a Saturday. I hope that some of this fits your character, as I'll be a gentleman and treat you well.
Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Playing sports
Basketball, Cycling, Running, Skiing, Soccer, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, VolleyBall, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs, Exotic Pets
El Centro, American Ice, The Standard, 9:30 CLub, Marvin's, Eighteenth Street Lounge
Northwestern University, Evanston, IL
Photography...if I had a chance to travel around the world, explore new countries, and take photos for a living, I would do it in a heartbeat. Nat Geo photographers beware, there's a new talent rising.
Besides trying to catch up on Game of Thrones? The Kite Runner was the last indulging book I've read.

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings fans the latest news and inside information on the Brewers
Carlos Gomez escapes serious injury
It was certainly discouraging that the Brewers fell behind early and never caught up Sunday afternoon – a formula they often followed during a disastrous six-victory month of May.
But it was impossible to feel completely downcast about the 7-4 defeat to Atlanta at Miller Park after learning that centerfielder Carlos Gomez escaped serious injury during a scary crash into the wall making yet another spectacular catch in the fourth inning. As Gomez walked to the dugout holding his left shoulder, visions of another key player hitting the disabled list danced in the Brewers' heads.
"I thought he broke his collarbone again, I really did," said catcher Jonathan Lucroy, referring to an injury Gomez suffered during the 2011 season. "They showed the replay on it and it scared me. It looked terrible."
Instead, Gomez escaped with a sprained left shoulder, an injury that he didn't think would make him miss any time of note.
"I don't think it's serious," said Gomez, who didn't think he'd need an MRI on the shoulder. "I'm going to be fine. I think in a few days I'll be fine. Probably tomorrow it'll be a little bit sore."
The Brewers are off Monday, then begin a three-game series against the Cubs on Tuesday. Gomez is having a breakthrough, all-star type season and losing him for an extended period would have been another cruel blow to a club playing with Ryan Braun and Corey Hart on the DL.

A New York Review Books Original
No one has written more feelingly and more beautifully than Nescio about the madness and sadness, courage and vulnerability of youth: its big plans and vague longings, not to mention the binges, crashes, and marathon walks and talks. No one, for that matter, has written with such pristine clarity about the radiating canals of Amsterdam and the cloud-swept landscape of the Netherlands.
Who was Nescio? Nescio—Latin for "I don't know"—was the pen name of J.H.F. Grönloh, the highly successful director of the Holland–Bombay Trading Company and a father of four—someone who knew more than enough about respectable maturity. Only in his spare time and under the cover of a pseudonym, as if commemorating a lost self, did he let himself go, producing over the course of his lifetime a handful of utterly original stories that contain some of the most luminous pages in modern literature.
This is the first English translation of Nescio's stories.
Nescio should have gotten here long ago. His work converged with many aspects of American literature and culture. The ragtag circle of artists at the center of his stories could have hung out with Sal Paradise and Dean Moriarty….Nescio's absence from our literature is most surprising because of the crushing beauty of his work…. Amsterdam Stories is a book of landscape. It is about what words the mind hears when the eyes are truly open, seeing the world as a reason to create.
—Josh Cook, The Millions
A valuable introduction to a significant Dutch writer.
—Publishers Weekly
In every respect the work of Nescio represents an exception to the calm, bourgeois realism of the early twentieth century… He was arguably the most non-conformist writer of his time…. In his stories Nescio created a number of extraordinary characters, who have become legendary in Dutch culture.
—Theo Hermans, A Literary History of the Low Countries
Though he published few stories, his position in Dutch literature is a very special one.
—Cassell's Encyclopedia of World Literature
Nescio's utter simplicity goes hand-in-hand with a great command of humour, irony, matter-of-factness, understatement and sentiment (never sentimentality or self-pity), all of which miraculously balance each other out. He is essentially a lyricist, a poet writing in prose.
— Dutch Foundation for Literature

H.S. girls sports notes: Ray focused on next game only
Cardona wants Texans to worry about going 2-0 before seeking district title
CORPUS CHRISTI - Ray's volleyball team isn't getting ahead of itself despite making some serious strides in non-district play this season.
First-year coach Lupe Cardona won't allow that from the Texans, whose strong defense makes them a contender for the District 31-4A title this season.
Ray (15-6 overall, 1-0 in 31-4A play) already has non-district wins over returning playoff teams Class 5A King and 4A Tuloso-Midway this season.
The Texans also placed second at the Aransas Pass tournament recently, despite playing the title match without starting setter/hitter Kristina Banda. Banda suffered a thumb injury during the tournament in an earlier match against John Paul II.
"We played some really great teams, so I'm hoping we do well (in district play)" said Cardona, also a former longtime Calallen coach.
Cardona doesn't want Ray focusing in on the 31-4A championship just yet, however. Not with 13 district matches remaining this season.
"We're just going to focus on one game at a time," Cardona said. "We're not looking ahead. We're just going to take one game, hopefully win that one, and look to the next one."
Ray hosts Laredo Nixon (0-1 in district play) at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, before traveling to play Laredo Cigarroa (0-1 in 31-4A play) at 5 p.m. Friday.
- - - -
Alice made quick work of Laredo Martin to win its 31-4A volleyball opener this past Friday, 25-22, 25-15, 25-14.
Hitter Brittany Rivera had 10 kills for the Coyotes (7-9 overall), who also got 11 assists from setter/hitter Stephanie Canales-Garza, five aces from defensive specialist Lauren Barrios and 14 digs from hitter/defensive specialist Marissa Ortiz.
- - - -
Calallen setter Jordan Roberts had a match-high 34 assists in leading the Wildcats past Victoria East, 25-20, 25-21, 20-25, 19-25, 15-10 in their 30-4A volleyball opener this past Friday.
Middle blocker Saige Thomas and middle blocker/hitter Hannah Flores also combined for 22 kills for Calallen. Libero/defensive specialist Camille Moller added 20 digs for the Wildcats, who also got a combined eight aces from Roberts and middle blocker/hitter Hollann Hans.
- - - -
Carroll cross country runner Ceara O'Donnell won the girls varsity race this past Saturday at the CARisma Invitational meet at West Guth Park in 19 minutes, 18 seconds.
Victoria Almaguer (in 20:15) placed second for the host Tigers, while Gregory-Portland's Kylee Labrenz (third place, 20:16) and Holly Nohavitza (fifth, 20:35) and Flour Bluff's Jamie Graves (fourth, 20:20) also placed in the Top 5 individually in the girls race.
- - - -
Setter Katie Johnstone's 25 assists helped Flour Bluff sweep Laredo Nixon, 25-21, 25-20, 25-11 in its 31-4A volleyball opener this past Friday.
Middle blocker Shelby Harper and hitter Brooke Luby combined for 18 kills for the Hornets. Libero Grace Bomba and Harper also had three aces each, while hitter Alex Soles had two blocks for Flour Bluff (18-5 overall).
- - - -
IWA's volleyball team improved to 13-2 this season by sweeping Annapolis Christian Academy, 25-6, 25-9, 25-9 this past weekend.
Kateri Kroeger's 10 kills, Gen Devlin's 14 assists, Megan Flanigan's seven aces and Katie McClung's 11 digs led the Angels, who also got a combined four blocks from Maggie Pesek and Kroeger.
Cat Yarbrough's 10 assists and five aces led the Warriors (3-5).
- - - -
Taylor Williams and Nneka Gutierrez combined for 12 kills to lead Moody to a 25-20, 25-11, 25-20 sweep of Laredo Cigarroa in its 31-4A volleyball opener this past weekend.
Alyssa Salinas also tallied nine assists and two aces for the Trojans, who got a combined 12 digs from Brianna Hernandez, Brittany Martinez, Delilah Pacheco and Yliana Salinas.

Author's top money tip for young women is to take charge now: Mayers
Well-heeled The Smart Girl's Guide to Getting Rich says young women may be intimidated by a lack of financial knowledge but are eager to learn and better at money management then young men.

View 2 photoszoom
Lesley-Anne Scorgie learned early on that there is no point to saving money unless you have a plan for spending it. That's because money is only good for one thing — buying stuff — so the trick is to decide what's important to you and make sure you don't waste a limited resource on impulses or poorly thought out sprees.
Scorgie, 30, lives in Calgary and has just published her third personal finance book. Well-Heeled The Smart Girl's Guide to Getting Rich (Dundurn Press, $19.99) is aimed at young women, a group she says has unique needs, may be intimidated by their lack of knowledge, but are keen to learn how to manage their financial affairs.
"Building richness isn't about amassing a fortune," she says. "It's about having the freedom and financial means to achieve your goals and dreams."
Scorgie says the young, female demographic is largely ignored by financial professionals and rarely the target of financial literacy efforts. So they turn to their parents and friends for advice which can be hit and miss.
She says this lack of knowledge has helped lead to high levels of debt among young women even as they enjoy the benefits of better education and higher salaries relative to previous generations.
Scorgie is an oil industry analyst by day with an MBA from Queen's University. She emerged with an undergraduate commerce degree from the University of Alberta, not just debt-free, but with money in the bank. She lived with her grandparents, held down several part-time jobs going through school and had enough for a down payment on a home at 21. Soon after landing a full-time job, she bought a house.
Scorgie's passion for personal finance was shaped by an early life where money was tight. Her parents moved from Toronto to Calgary when she was 7 to go back to school to launch new careers. They were beyond broke.
"For nearly a decade my family lived at the poverty line," she says.
This experience taught Scorgie the pleasures of simple things and the notion that the value of money lies in the freedom it brings to make lifestyle choices as well as the pleasures of material things. She admits her motivation to save has been based on a fear of ending up like her parents.
Scorgie bought a $100 Canada Savings Bond with birthday money when she was 10 and by Grade 12 was teaching a Money 101 class to her peers. That story ended up in her local paper and led to a guest appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
Well-Heeled is written in a chatty and accessible way, sprinkled with tips and lists. It tackles the familiar saving, spending and budgeting topics along with sections on the dangers of credit and over spending.
"Can someone please tell me why our society thinks being a shopaholic is funny?" she says. "When the thrill of the sale wears off, the shopaholic is left with massive bills and zero flexibility."
Scorgie promotes frugal living as fun and fashionable. She furnished that first home from Craigslist and Kijiji and says, while you may think it was a dreary place to live, the house was featured in the media several times as chic living on a modest budget. These days Scorgie can afford more, but still enjoys being frugal.
"I'm not a cheapskate," she says, "but I sure do enjoy saving money when I can."
A chapter is devoted to getting a better deal in the workplace, whether a raise or promotion. The book also explores money and relationships — something Scorgie wrote about in a five-part Couples & Money series for the Toronto Star a few years ago. This includes the importance of common goals and financial honesty and a section on frugal dating.
She says the encouraging news is that, when young women take up the challenge, they have a better track record of financial success than their male counterparts. Who doesn't want to walk through life well-heeled?

Version 1.4 Update - Career Points bug has finally been fixed. It took a while to track down the bug but it's now dealt with!
4/9/2015It's a fun game, but I was very disappointed when I realized that the upgrades purchased do nothing. It really breaks the game as there is no point to continue fishing because you can't catch any significant fish unless you have better gear. Other than that, I liked everything else about the game.
11/4/2014Decent concept, but after you fish for a long time and earn enough to buy line upgrades, there is inexplicably no real upgrade. Total disappointment. The line turns yellow, then red, then breaks. If the line lasted detectably longer I might keep the game. You will learn how to lure larger fish up close to the top to avoid the line breaks, but that is the only reward here. Line and rod upgrades change nothing, and expensive lures are often immediately snapped up by low grade fish you can catch with a standard lure. Uninstalling, but might check sometime to see if there is any improvement.
8/14/2014Pretty cool
6/8/2014I love this app.
4/15/2014The game is great but the upgrades dont do anything. Also if u tap the bomb, even if u dont have any, anything that bites the lure will explode. Overall, it was still pretty fun though
12/1/2013Please make upgrades work! Otherwise this is a great game.
11/25/2013I guess its okay
9/30/2013Awesome game but I have all the upgrades and it doesn't make a difference PLEASE FUX.
9/6/2013Its still ok, like it
8/31/2013So good

DQ alpha/HLA Sharing: Does It Always Lead To Reproductive Failure?
It is not unusual for couples who share DQ alpha/HLA similarities to first give birth to a healthy baby only to subsequently develop infertility, recurrent IVF failure or recurrent pregnancy loss. Such couples find it hard to comprehend how after having experienced an often uncomplicated pregnancy and birth they could then go on to develop immunologic implantation dysfunction. Hopefully, this brief article will serve to explain how and why DQ alpha/HLA sharing between the embryo recipient (female partner) and the sperm provider (male partner) does not inevitably lead to implantation dysfunction and reproductive loss.
When DQ alpha and/or HLA sharing exists between a female and male it will usually require repeated embryo exposures for the host's uterine natural killer cells to become sufficiently activated to cause damage to the embryo's root system (trophoblast). Once natural killer cells become activated, they begin to over-produce substances known as TH-1 cytokines which attack the trophoblast and so damage it that the embryo is promptly rejected. Sometimes, the effect is not immediately lethal and the pregnancy "limps along," only to miscarry, usually in the first trimester. If, in spite of there being DQ-alpha/HLA sharing between the male and female partners, a "competent" embryo reaches the uterus prior to the advent of NK-cell activation (NKa+) it would escape severe damage to its root system and, provided that NKa+ does not subsequently ensue the pregnancy will usually go on to full term. On the other hand, should NKa+ occur, such a pregnancy would likely miscarry. Thus, outcome very much depends on the level and timing of NK cell activation.
The bottom line: In cases of alloimmune implantation dysfunction, it is the frequency and number of embryo-NK cell exposures over time that will determine the absence, presence and degree of NKa+ and so determine the fate of the pregnancy. This serves to explain why successful pregnancies are usually the ones that occur early in the male-female relationship and why subsequently with a progressive build up of NKa+ a successful pregnancy will often be followed by a series of miscarriages and eventually by a complete failure to conceive (i.e. "perceived infertility").

Dear Dr.Sher,
I have elevated natural killer cells and below are our DQ/HLA results.
DQ alpha: 0103(1.3),0302(3.1)
Results are reported as HLA DQ alpha genotype with older HLA 'Phenotype' nomenclature in paranthese.
DQ Beta : 03,06
HLA DRB1 : 09,15 DRB1 present DRB5 Present DRB3 Abscent
DQ alpha: 0103(1.3),0104(NA)
Results are reported as HLA DQ alpha genotype with older HLA 'Phenotype' nomenclature in paranthese.
DQ Beta : 05,06
HLA DRB1 : 14,15 DRB3 present DRB5 Present DRB4 Abscent
I have so many DQ/HLA matches.do I have complete DQ alpha match/partial match.Does remaining HLA matches also cause implantation issues?
We have a healthy daughter 3.5 yrs old.
Since 2012, I've had 3 chemicals, one mmc after a faint heartbeat and an ectopic.
We have no class 2 HLA mismatches according to my doc. Last we checked NK cells were in normal range. Tumor Necrosis alpha was high while I was miscarrying ectopic. I had a lap removing Endo stage 2 and ectopic blockage.
Now I'm a cycle past and ready to try again. Going to try IUI paired w femara, IL, lovenix and prednisone.
Any thoughts on my situation? All blood tests good except HLA.

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Matthew Chapman, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Tuesday, 11 October 2011 11:30AM
Prime minister David Cameron is backing the launch of the site, which was recommended by the Department for Education-commissioned Bailey Review into the commercialisation and sexualisation of children.
The ParentPort website is designed to ease the complaints process by directing parents to the best media regulator, where they can complain about inappropriate material.
Parents will be channelled through the process by a series of questions, such as "what concerned you?". A link will direct users through to a web page where they can lodge a complaint with the relevant regulator.
Regulators managing the ParentPort site include the Advertising Standards Authority, Authority for Television On Demand, BBC Trust, British Board of Film Classification, Ofcom, Press Complaints Commission and Video Standards Council.
Ed Richards, Ofcom chief executive, said: "Seven UK media regulators have come together to develop a single website, with a single aim – to help protect children from inappropriate material.
"We have already tested the website with parents and the feedback has been positive. We will keep listening to parents and intend to develop the site in light of further feedback."
A 'Have Your Say' section on the website will provide a feedback facility to gauge parents' views.
ParentPort also provides advice on how to keep children safe online and what parents can do about other products like clothing and the display of magazines in shops.
The idea of the website was mooted in the Conservative and Labour parties' 2010 election manifestos.

Yesterday Republican Senator Marco Rubio took to the Senate floor to address the ongoing crisis in Venezuela and to push back against Democratic Senator Tom Harkin's praise of Cuba after visiting the country and touting its healthcare system.
First Rubio took on Harkin, who is the chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. He spent last week touring Cuban healthcare facilities and right on cue, came back to the United States to spout communist propaganda about the system. Harkin claims Cuba has a lower infant mortality rate than the U.S. and says Cubans have a longer lifespan, failing to point out the information he received about the system in Cuba comes only from dishonest Cuban regime officials. The truth about Cuba's horrid healthcare conditions were detailed in the March 2010 edition of Townhall Magazine. Humberto Fontova has also done extensive work exposing lies about Cuba's health system, which you can read about here.
Liberals pushing for free health care often cite Fidel Castro's fiefdom as evidence of how to do it right. Problem is, foreign leaders, celebrities, patients and media are shown only the good stuff that is maintained for PR purposes and for the Cuban elite.
After annihilating the argument that the Cuban system is one the United States should emulate, Rubio took on Hugo Chavez protege and Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro for ongoing violence against protestors. How are the two related? The Castro regime is playing a large role in helping Maduro perpetrate violence against Venezuelan protestors. Rubio pointed out Cuban tactics, like shooting protestors in the head and killing them, are being used in Venezuela.

Video Games vs. Other Entertainment Mediums- Part 1
By Gamer_152 35 Comments
For countless years now it seems that people have had an obsession with comparing video games to other entertainment mediums. How well video games hold up in comparison to other forms of entertainment has often been taken to be a measurement of how well video games are doing as a medium, but these kind of comparisons often come about with a myriad of problems behind them. So let's take a look at where the video games vs. other entertainment mediums analyses too often fall apart.
Why Always Movies?
When video games do get compared to other entertainment mediums it seems that movies are the top candidate. In fact, unless we're talking about the common games as art debates, it seems that almost every time, the entertainment medium which video games get compared to is movies. In one way it's not that surprising to see this kind of comparison going on, after all they're two of the world's biggest entertainment industries, but it's interesting just how rare it is to see video games compared to mediums apart from movies in the average discussion space.
People often pick movies as the material for their comparisons not just because movies are very popular, but also because it's the easiest comparison to make; both games and movies use visuals, incorporate music, and often tell stories in at least a somewhat similar fashion, especially now that we're increasingly seeing developers and publishers making the effort to make video games more like movies. The similarity between the two mediums is also only exacerbated for people who have a limited understanding of game mechanics.
This focus on comparing games against one other entertainment medium instead of all entertainment mediums is a very narrow-sighted way of trying to determine the relative success of video games, but this narrow-sightedness reflects the bigger problem of why many people make this kind of comparison to begin with. If you've seen games vs. movies debates on the internet before then you're no doubt familiar with the fact that a lot of these debates are fuelled by people who just want to see their own opinion on which is the greatest entertainment medium validated by society as a whole. The logic is that if video games are the biggest medium or most popular medium, this means they're the best medium.
Duelling Sales Figures
One common tactic to try and prove that video games come out on top in terms of entertainment, has been comparing profits or units/tickets sold of movies against those of games; however this usually leads to lots of misleading figures being presented. Sometimes when weighing the two up people will directly compare total money made from box office sales of a movie with the total money made from sales of a game. It must first be remembered in these instances that game prices can range from those of a simple iPhone game right up to those of AAA blockbusters. Of course in these comparisons AAA blockbusters are usually used, but this is far from fair when the price of a big-name game these days is many times that of a movie ticket. Comparing profits of movies against profits of games is also not a sensible means of comparison, as it is not only carries the flaw that looking at the total money made through sales does, but carries the extra glitch that it's dependent on how much it cost to make the game or movie in the first place.
Even if you're just talking about the number of tickets sold vs. the number of games sold the comparison still isn't entirely apt though, as this does not account for sales of Blu-Rays, DVDs, or the streaming of movies. Even if you did include these figures, there'd be no telling how many people who bought the movie on-disc or streamed it were seeing it for the first time and how many had already seen it in cinemas. Add in the confusion that used sales, renting, and similar things bring to the mix and it becomes obvious that it's a bit of a nightmare to actually work out which video games and which movies are doing better than each other financially.
Of course even if we can prove that video game sales measure up well against the competition, that's far from the end of the story. Ignoring the ridiculous idea that if lots of people like video games that means they're good (I think we can all agree that there's a lot of popular things out there with a serious lack of quality), even if video games are collectively selling well that doesn't tell us much about how the public perceive them, how much time they're putting into their games or what kinds of games are selling. Obviously the reality of the situation is that video games have neither the status nor the audience that other big entertainment mediums have right now, and staring at sales figures has little to do with judging the general perception of video games.
Getting All Artsy
Sales figures or no sales figures, another big problem when it comes to these debates has been that people seem to gravitate towards taking one video game or a handful of games and one or a few works from another entertainment medium, and claiming that they are all representative of the mediums that they come from. In fact back during the whole Roger Ebert "games as art" debate many were holding up games like Braid and Flower, and saying "This is why games are art". In reality that particular debate was never about whether games are art to begin with, it was about whether games can be art, but if you are going after an argument that treats the medium as a whole you can't just focus on your Braids and your Flowers, you also have to work out where games like Gears of War and Dead or Alive fit into the mix (not that there's anything wrong with Gears of War or Dead or Alive), just like if movies are art, movie buffs have to figure out how films like Jackass and Troll 2 are to be treated (not that there's anything wrong with Jackass). There is no one or two works in any medium which can be taken to represent the medium as a whole.
Not that I want to go too far down this rabbit hole but while I'm on the subject of games as art, one thing that seems to repeatedly go wrong in these discussions is people using the word "art" without ever explaining what they mean by it. Back when Ebert made his original post on the matter he rightfully wrote that a big hurdle in this discussion is finding an agreeable definition of the word art to begin with, and yet I've seen people arguing until they're blue in the face about whether games are art, all the while never making it quite clear what they think art is.
Duder, It's Over
Once again, thank you for reading, part 2 is coming next week and I look forward to reading your comments.

LINCOLN ŌĆö When Brian McKinnon received a letter from North Kingstown Postmaster Phil Picott back on Friday, April 1, he first wondered if the contents were some kind of April Fool's Day joke.
After all, McKinnon had known Picott for a couple of decades anyway, so why not?
He re-read the letter, addressed to his 10-year-old daughter, renowned soprano Alexis Clare McKinnon, and still had his doubts.
In it, Picott stated ŌĆ£Dear Miss McKinnon: As the Postmaster of North Kingstown ŌĆ" I am pleased to invite you, your family and fans to a Stamp Presentation in your honor! The United States Postal Service (USPS) would like to recognize your amazing worldwide achievement in being the youngest person ever to star in a professional opera and musical production.
ŌĆ£In addition, I would like to also recognize you as being the youngest college student, (at) age nine, ever to have starred in a leading role in an opera at the University of Rhode Island,ŌĆØ Picott wrote.
Admitted Brian McKinnon: ŌĆ£I had no inkling this was going to happen. I didn't quite understand what it was. I mean, what the heck is a stamp presentation? I was wondering if they were going to put her picture on a stamp. So I called Phil, an old friend, and asked him. He laughed like heck, 'No, Brian, she's not getting her photo on it. We're going to give her one!'ŌĆØ
On Friday, May 13, at 11 a.m. at the North Kingstown Post Office, 7715 Post Road, the USPS not only officially will release its 44-cent ŌĆ£JazzŌĆØ forever stamp but also present one to Alexis Clare, who last November 21 starred in the opera ŌĆ£Amahl & the Night VisitorsŌĆØ at the University of Rhode Island's Fine Arts Concert Hall.
The girl, who will collect a plaque for her already amazing singing career, also will perform the song ŌĆ£Music and Me,ŌĆØ one made famous by Michael Jackson, at the ceremony.
The natural question for the Lonsdale Elementary School fourth grader's parents, Brian and Laurie (Cullen), was this: Why this, and why North Kingstown?
ŌĆ£It's crazy, but I think it's because I grew up in North Kingstown with my brother, John, and my parents (John and Phyllis) still live there,ŌĆØ chuckled Laurie, a 1989 NKHS graduate and now a speech pathologist. ŌĆ£You know, I used to work in that building, which is now the post office, when it was an Almac's (grocery store). I was a front-end manager there from (age) 17 until, I guess, about 23.
ŌĆ£It's kind of mind-boggling,ŌĆØ she added. ŌĆ£I never would've thought, or dreamed, at that time that my daughter, as a singer, would be performing at a stamp dedication. That's the same place where I used to cash out food or bring money to the cashiers. It's mind-boggling. I guess this is what they mean by 'full circle.'
ŌĆ£When I called my parents in (Dunedin,) Florida ŌĆō they're 'snowbirds' for a few months each winter ŌĆō and they just said, 'You've got to be kidding me!' A lot of their friends go to see Alexis when she's performing, and I know they've told them, 'Go to the post office (on May 13)! That's our granddaughter!'ŌĆØ
Most recently, little Alexis performed in ŌĆ£Opera and Broadway: Tenors vs. DivasŌĆØ at the Edward King House, a Newport mansion, on Friday, April 15. Two days later, she trekked to URI to sing ŌĆ£When You Wish Upon A StarŌĆØ and ŌĆ£Belle NuitŌĆØ (with URI senior Kelsey Hopkins) in the ŌĆ£Comedy Tonight!ŌĆØ show.
ŌĆ£I woke up that (Friday) morning with a double-ear infection, and my dad called the doctor,ŌĆØ stated the girl, who has an astonishing voice range from low-G to whistle tones. ŌĆ£He prescribed some medicine, and ŌĆō instantly ŌĆō my ears were better.
ŌĆ£My ears blocked up again on Sunday morning, and I could barely hear myself sing, but I was going to anyway, because I love it,ŌĆØ she added. ŌĆ£It makes people happy, and I like doing that.ŌĆØ
She also currently is under the tutelage of Prof. Rene de la Garza, the URI Department of Music & Vocal Studies' Director, and has been since age five. And she's the youngest performer ever to represent ŌĆ£Opera Providence,ŌĆØ which is directed by ŌĆō who else? ŌĆō de la Garza.
At age seven, Alexis Clare (her stage name) was one of the youngest students ever to be invited to Julliard School in New York to take part in its Pre-College Division Saturday Morning Program. On March 7, 2010, she sang ŌĆ£When You Wish Upon A StarŌĆØ with fellow soprano and star Diana McVey in ŌĆ£Movies & MusicalsŌĆØ at the Kingston campus.
In May, she provided the opening act for two-time Grammy Award winner and Seekonk native Bill Harley at ŌĆ£The Farewell Party,ŌĆØ a commemoration of the Fairlawn Early Learning Center closing; and, back in October, sang at the Southern New England Women's Expo at the Twin River Event Center, and delivered ŌĆ£Castle on a CloudŌĆØ and ŌĆ£When You Wish ŌĆ" ŌĆ£ at the Music Mansion in Providence later that month.
In ŌĆ£Amahl & the Night Visitors,ŌĆØ she became the youngest performer/singer ever to land the lead role in an opera at a college or university worldwide.
ŌĆ£I came home from school (on April Fool's Day), and I sat at the kitchen counter doing my homework; that's when my dad asked me to read that letter,ŌĆØ Alexis grinned. ŌĆ£He said, 'Can you read it outloud to me?' and I did. I was, like, 'Oh, my God! Dad, what is this? Am I going to get my picture on a stamp?' He pointed to it in the top right corner, and told me, 'They're going to give you that.' I said, 'Really? That's really cool!'ŌĆØ
When asked who chose ŌĆ£Music And MeŌĆØ as the song she'll belt out at the stamp presentation, Brian indicated it was his idea.
ŌĆ£I think it mirrors Alexis and what her life is all about,ŌĆØ he noted. ŌĆ£Like the late Michael Jackson, she adores singing. He was only nine or 10 when he first sang that. He wasn't just a pop singer, but he liked all types of music. He listened to everyone from Ella Fitzgerald to Charlie Chaplin's 'Smile,' which is brother Jermaine sang at his funeral.
ŌĆ£It just mirrors her love of music, her intense feeling for it.ŌĆØ
Picott, also a former professional tennis player, mentioned his selection of Alexis as the honoree was an individual effort, and that postmasters nationwide are putting their own individual flair on their particular ŌĆ£JazzŌĆØ forever stamp presentations.
ŌĆ£When I heard about this, I thought about Alexis right away,ŌĆØ he stated. ŌĆ£I've known Alexis and her family for a long time, and it was just a natural. You just must have an opportunity to witness her amazing talent. What comes out of her lungs at age nine (now 10), it gives you goosebumps.
ŌĆ£I was here two years ago, and I did the same thing for (murder victim) Molly Bish's family with the 'Amber Alert' stamp presentation,ŌĆØ he continued. ŌĆ£Of course, this is a much happier occasion. I've seen her sing quite a few times, and I can't wait to hear her again at this event.ŌĆØ
Her family, including her parents and kid brother, first-grader Brendan, will travel to North Kingstown on May 13 for the fete. She also hopes her Lonsdale Elementary Principal Jeanine Magliocco, not to mention her teacher Cheryl LaRiviere and her fourth-grade classmates, will be able to attend.
Alexis admitted she has never before thought about becoming a stamp collector ŌĆō she's been too busy compiling ŌĆ£American GirlŌĆØ dolls, all of whom sit on a small couch in her bedroom.
ŌĆ£I'm pretty psyched about the presentation; I don't collect them, but I will now!ŌĆØ she said enthusiastically. ŌĆ£The post office is presenting me their new one. This is wicked awesome!ŌĆØ

1996 Dodge Ram Van 2500 Q&A
1996 Dodge Ram Van 2500 Question: water pump
Ok so I have replaced sender unit, thermostat and water pump on this Ram Van. Still gets hot but not steaming hot. No heat coming out either. I pulled the water lines from the pump to the heater core. No fluid coming out of the line while idling. Hose may be plugged but unlikely. Question? Does the engine need to heat up enough before it sends water to the heater core?. I suspect that the heater hose will have water circulating from the pump thru the heater core always. Maybe the new pump is defective? Thanks. - Tahoetoddster
Answer 1
there should be circulation at all times. did you bleed the air out of the system??? the no heat is not good. from the sound of your message, you have been running hot for a while. you may have done damage to a head gasket. the radiator may be clogged also, causing a no circulation issue.

Gorgeous godzilla! I love the detailing and especially the scales on his back, very inspiring ^^
"Insert cool quote here, preferable not in Swedish"

This is super cool.
August 19th, 2012 #4
That pose is absolutely perfect. Those spikes on his back must have been a pain to sculpt in Sculpey
August 29th, 2012 #5
the godzilla is so cooool, like the work.
August 29th, 2012 #6
Thanks everyone, yeah those spikes were a pain to sculpt out of the sculpey, but i manged lol. I wanted to capture him in a pretty aggressive pose, something we normally don't see him in, I designed this with the original in mind, updating it and such, but I still wanted that
"guy in a suit" kinda feel to it. I sculpted him with the idea that he's pretty much ready to kick some monster ass

from Jay Z (Ft. Bilal) – Fallin Lyrics on Genius
I don't know, sometimes I think HD is BETTER than real life
While others sit back and watch television in High Definition, I am up close and personal and it doesn't get clearer than real life …
And also his (assumed) clearer view of life now. Thinks he run the shit, but, just like the message of the song, everything inevitably comes to an end: fallin. Damn its corny when you spell it out

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 12/6/12
Josh Hamilton would help the Seattle Mariners. That is obvious. They need his presence, his star power, his fluid left-handed swing. But if they think he alone is the answer to their offensive woes, they might be headed toward a costly calamity. The Mariners remained firmly in the Hamilton sweepstakes as the baseball winter meetings adjourned Thursday, discussing three-year deals with the free-agent outfielder in the range of $20 million to $25 million per season, according to my colleague Ken Rosenthal. It's hard to imagine Hamilton signing with the Mariners -- the American League's worst team during the past three seasons -- for less than four years and $100 million. On a club that opened the 2012 season with a payroll near $85 million, Hamilton would account for roughly one-quarter of the budget and probably surpass Felix Hernandez as the franchise's highest-paid player. The only way to justify spending that money would be ... to spend more money. Unless Mariners ownership is...

I have to admit that the classic way of making this is in a bowl fitted over barely simmering water – which does take 20 minutes' whisking; so for busy people like us, adding a level teaspoon of cornflour means you can whisk it over direct heat without it splitting and you won't know the cornflour is there.
Serves 4
|4 large egg yolks
|1 level tablespoon light muscovado sugar
|1 level teaspoon cornflour
|5 fl oz (150 ml) Marsala
|Oven temperatures and Conversions
|Click here for information
|There is no list of equipment specified for this recipe.
This recipe is taken from Delia Smith's Complete Cookery Course, Delia Smith's Complete Illustrated Cookery Course and How to Cook Book Three.
Begin by putting the egg yolks in a medium-sized bowl and then add the sugar and the cornflour. Now, using an electric whisk (or hand whisk if you are feeling energetic), whisk everything together until light and fluffy – about 3 minutes – then pour in the Marsala a little at a time and keep whisking until smooth.
Next, pour this mixture into a medium-sized saucepan and put over a low to medium heat. Keep whisking the mixture all the time until it thickens, which will take about 5-10 minutes (depending on whether you use a hand or electric whisk). When it has thickened, it should be light and foamy. It is best served warm fairly soon after making it, and is divine served with a fruit compote.

continued The state is committed to accelerating the availability, affordability, and utilization of broadband technologies in order to grow New York's economy. Access to the numerous benefits of broadband access, such as e-commerce, e-government, telemedicine and distance learning will result in job creation, improved health care, greater educational opportunities for students and teachers, and enhanced economic development.
The following projects are receiving New York State Broadband Grants:
— Essex County Broadband Service Expansion (Essex County) – $557,000
— Time Warner Cable Broadband (Various Counties) – $5,258,231
— North Country Telecommunications Loan Fund (Various Counties) – $500,000
— North Country Public Emergency Network (Various Counties) – $2,222,000
Most of the grant funding will be for the "last-mile" of broadband service, which means the projects will provide high speed internet connections directly to New Yorkers. The last-mile is the most expensive portion of a broadband network, and often prevents many rural residents from receiving broadband service, even when service is available to nearby homes.
"Access to high-speed broadband is critical to attracting business and economic development investments through-out New York State," said Empire State Development President, CEO & Commissioner Kenneth Adams. "These grants will help thousands of businesses expand their reach to consumers in countries around the globe while also connecting under-served New Yorkers to the services so many of us already enjoy."

Product Details
Gold Space Shuttle: 8.36 Grams of 90% Gold (.24187 oz).
Congress approved legislation authorizing this medal; the bill was signed by President Reagan on March 12, 1986, becoming Public Law 99-295. The authorizing law specified that 10 percent of the revenue from sales was to go to the Young Astronaut Council's annual budget. The medals' obverse design was chosen from more than 17,000 entries submitted by YAC student members from across the country. Designed by Brian Kachel, then 12, of Jersey City, N.J., it features a space shuttle in flight. The design was sculptured by Mint sculptor-engraver Chester Y. Martin. The obverse design incorporates the inscriptions LIBERTY and the year 1988. The reverse, designed by Robert Ahlcrona, features a right-facing eagle, with its wings spread, perched on top of the Young Astronauts Program logo surrounded by stars. The inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and YOUNG ASTRONAUTS are incorporated into the design. Not often available!

After a restful night we had the usual oatmeal & tea on the campstove . It was pretty foggy in the valley and we took our time getting ready to go after more soaking in the pools. There's something about hot springs or sauna and the feeling of well being that one gets after a good session. Being of Finnish decent I prefer a sauna, but I can appreciate a decent hot spring
Strange plants nearby
We were hoping to get a glimpse of the Volcans but with the thick fog, we enjoyed the new blacktop twisting downhill to the Amazonas region.
We really liked the new pavement
We can see the effects Mother Nature has on the roads here, with a new temporary bridge in place as the previous one is swept away.
We are buzzing along, and follow the river and are awestruck by the two-tier waterfall cascading down....
More downhill and we arrive at the junction at Baeza. We fill up both Sherpas. Check out those gas prices! If that's not enough to inspire lots of miles, then the I don't know what is.....
We header southbound into Amazonas country......
Soon we are riding along jungle type plants, ferns & palms leaves big enough to cover your entire body. Lots of simple huts along the road too. The rain got so severe........ We couldn't stay dry even with rain gear. We rode past 12 o'clock looking for somewhere to eat lunch. Finally we found a spot. The rain got worse....
The ground got real soft and the bikes wanted to fall over as the kickstands sank in.....
Finally the rain abated, & we got going again.
We tried to get the perfect jungle photo, but this is the best we could do. There's lots of side roads to explore, but we didn't want to go down them with so much rain recently. Plus we were soaked right through already .
This was very pleasant cruising, mostly top gear stuff.
We saw a cool old bridge so we turned back and went to look at it.
Single lane traffic
At one point we climbed up higher and could see over the delta and get an idea of the vast area with little or no roads, mostly river travel.
I saw these roads on the map, and I had to satisfy my curiosity and ride it. We want to visit each region in Ecuador , Amazonas, Andes & Coastal.
We almost stayed in the town of Tena,but kept rolling towards Puya crossing the Rio Napo.
12$ for a huge room.
We boiled eggs again with noodles & tea. Trying to reign in the budget after the $$$$ termales.
Room $12
Gas. $5
Store. 4.50
Lunch $5
$26.50 or $13.25 per person for the day in South America. JD you'll like it.

|Lactose free yogurt
|3 Cup (48 tbs) (Green Valley Organics)
|For pierogi dough ingredients
|Gluten free flour
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|2 Tablespoon
|Lactose free sour cream

|Olive oil
|1 Teaspoon
|1⁄2 Teaspoon
|For beet salad ingredients
|1 , peeled and sliced very thin with a knife or on a mandolin
|1 , segments removed

In a bowl, pour the flour and make a well in the middle. Blend the rest of the ingredients together and pour them into the well, stirring and gradually incorporating the flour into the wet ingredients. Bring it all together and form into a ball, kneading for just a few minutes. Wrap it and let it rest for 5 minutes. With a rolling pin, roll the dough out on a lightly floured tabletop. Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/8 inch and cut out rounds with a glass or other appropriate mold. Brush a bit of water around the perimeter of the cut pieces and place a scant tablespoon of yogurt cheese in the middle and fold it over to make a half moon. Boil in salted water for approx. 5 minutes and set atop the Beet Salad (directions below).
Toss the beets, orange segments, and scallions with vinaigrette made with 1 Tbsp. of sherry vinegar, 2 Tbsp. olive oil, fresh cracked black pepper, and sea salt.

Excitement awaits! :)
I'm a very down to earth, passionate person who loves being outdoors. I would consider myself a tomboy at heart with a with a bit of a girlie side. I love exploring new places and trying new things. Outdoor patios are a favorite and anywhere there's water I'm a happy camper! I'm a goofy girl who loves to laugh until I cry and find myself extremely easily amused! I'm looking for someone I can share all of these things with, a person who's patient, trustworthy, and has a boyish side, but also someone I can relate to and who's not afraid to connect emotionally. Not necessarily in a mushy way, but a person who's willing to communicate their feelings openly. Ultimately looking for a friend to have fun times together that could definitely turn into something more! If any of this catches your eye, feel free to shoot me an email. I'm looking forward to getting to know you! ;)

Anything outdoors, hiking with my dog, spending time with my family and beautiful nieces, whom I absolutely adore, trying new things (I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie!), skydiving is a favorite, I'll try anything once! ;)

I sure do. I was always open to it, but since the passing of the guy in my signature, the entire family is a believer, and we are really comforted by him being around. We never "see" him, as such, but he makes his presence known, usually through lights, fans, etc. and it happens in several houses, and at times when he knows we need his comfort or, sometimes just to make us smile.
What I find strange is that I have no doubt it is him and not someone else (like my parents) who have passed. Not sure how we know that, we all just know.
He has made believers out of my entire family, some of whom were pretty serious doubters.

StoryI wanted to incorporate salmon more often into our weekly diet. This dish is amazing and so delicious. We love it accompanied with steamed broccoli and cauliflower. Everyone that has tried it has loved it...yummy!!!Sweet potatoes are a great alternative to potatoes and help with weight maintenance as well.

Lux can give great realism, but does not use the remarkably flexible shader system Daz uses in 3Delight.
A good 3 point light light or Uberenvironment setup can be highly realistic too,
1st is a 3 point setup in 3Delight.
2nd is a Uberenviroment setup in GI mode with a light plane an distant specular light.
3rd is a 34 Mb ibl in Lux.
4th is a 20.Mb ibl in Lux.
