The cream of the crop! Diane Lane shows Josh Brolin what he's missing in stunning pale suit
If looking good is the best revenge then Diane Lane certainly got one up on her former flame Josh Brolin on Monday.
The newly single actress pulled off power dressing as she slipped into a beautiful cream tailored suit ensemble.
Diane was in attendance at the Caro Federico Theatrical Tribute to Federico Fellini in New York.

She opted to town down the sex appeal of her pale outfit by wearing a modest white T-shirt underneath the jacket.
Diane completed her elegant look with patent taupe peep toe pumps and an embroidered clutch bag.
The youthful 48-year-old wore her chestnut brown tresses in big and bouncy curls and sported plenty of bronzer and crimson lipstick.

Enjoying the single life: Diane has been enjoying nights out with her friends following her split from Josh Brolin
She filed for divorce from Josh on February 15 and ever since the Perfect Storm star has been seen enjoying the single life, particularly with her girlfriends.
But Diane spent part of her evening at the tribute to the Italian film director and screenwriter chatting to Edward Norton.
The Fight Club star, who looked dapper in a trendy midnight blue suit, posed up on the red carpet with director Julie Taymor.

Diane, who signed her divorce papers on Valentine's Day, was seen stepping out without her wedding ring earlier this month.
'Diane Lane and Josh Brolin have decided to end their marriage,' a spokesman for the couple told Us Weekly after the split.
The representative suggested the pair remain friends.
'It was a mutual decision. It is very amicable. It's not ugly, it's just over,' the statement continued.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
30 Mar 2010 21:22 GMT
The collisions - with proton beams being smashed into each other at 3.5 times the previous record speeds - are expected to help scientists understand the nature of the universe.
"It just shows what we can do in pushing knowledge forward on where we came from, how the early universe evolved," Cern director-general Rolf Heuer said.
"The high point so far of the experiment, the collisions marked a significant step forward for physics and could be seen as a giant leap for mankind," Heuer said, speaking in a video relay from Tokyo.'God particle'
Cern opens up the world of physics
The success came after the experiment was delayed for a few hours by technical glitches with power supply.
But the third attempt triggered collisions among the 20 billion protons in the LHC, which runs about 100 metres below the Swiss-French border.
"We're within a billionth of a second of the Big Bang," James Gillies, a Cern spokesman, told the AFP news agency.
Cern now plans to run the machine continuously for a period of 18 to 24 months, with a brief interruption for technical purposes at the end of 2010.
The aim is to see if certain particles can be recreated, in an effort to understand the moment after the Big Bang - believed to be the explosive event some 14 billion years ago which created the Universe - in part by explaining how elementary particles acquire mass.
As the tests continue scientists around the world will sift through and process the data, searching for evidence of a theorised missing link called the Higgs Boson, also known as the "God Particle".
Despiona Hatzifotiadu, a Cern scientist, said the experiment would "give us a clue of how we were created in the beginning".
It also aims to shed light on "dark matter" and subsequently "dark energy", invisible matter or forces that are thought to account together for some 96 per cent of the cosmos.

This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for the proper prefixes to use in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the spec changes.
Service workers essentially act as proxy servers that sit between web applications, and the browser and network (when available.) They are intended to (amongst other things) enable the creation of effective offline experiences, intercepting network requests and taking appropriate action based on whether the network is available and updated assets reside on the server. They will also allow access to push notifications and background sync APIs.
Service worker concepts and usage
A service worker is an event-driven worker registered against an origin and a path. It takes the form of a JavaScript file that can control the web page/site it is associated with, intercepting and modifying navigation and resource requests, and caching resources in a very granular fashion to give you complete control over how your app behaves in certain situations (the most obvious one being when the network is not available.)
A service worker is run in a worker context: it therefore has no DOM access, and runs on a different thread to the main JavaScript that powers your app, so it is not blocking. It is designed to be fully async; as a consequence, APIs such as synchronous XHR and localStorage can't be used inside a service worker.
Service workers only run over HTTPS, for security reasons. Having modified network requests wide open to man in the middle attacks would be really bad.
Note: Service Workers win over previous attempts in this area such as AppCache because they don't make assumptions about what you are trying to do and then break when those assumptions are not exactly right; you have granular control over everything.
Note: Service workers make heavy use of promises, as generally they will wait for responses to come through, after which they will respond with a success or failure action. The promises architecture is ideal for this.
A service worker is first registered using the
ServiceWorkerContainer.register() method. If successful, your service worker will be downloaded to the client and attempt installation/activation (see below) for URLs accessed by the user inside the whole origin, or inside a subset specified by you.
Download, install and activate
At this point, your service worker will observe the following lifecycle:
- Download
- Install
- Activate
The service worker is immediately downloaded when a user first accesses a server worker–controlled site/page.
After that it is downloaded every 24 hours or so. It *may* be downloaded more frequently, but it must be downloaded every 24h to prevent bad scripts from being annoying for too long.
Installation is attempted when the downloaded file is found to be new — either different to an existing service worker (byte-wise compared), or the first service worker encountered for this page/site.
If this is the first time a service worker has been made available, installation is attempted, then after a successful installation it is activated.
If there is an existing service worker available, the new version is installed in the background, but not yet activated — at this point it is called the worker in waiting. It is only activated when there are no longer any pages loaded that are still using the old service worker. As soon as there are no more such pages still loaded, the new service worker activates (becoming the active worker).
You can listen out for the
InstallEvent; a standard action is to prepare your service worker for usage when this fires, for example by creating a cache using the built in storage API, and placing assets inside it that you'll want for running your app offline.
There is also an
activate event. The point where this event fires is generally a good time to clean up old caches and other things associated with the previous version of your service worker.
Your service worker can respond to requests using the
FetchEvent event. You can modify the response to these requests in any way you want, using the
FetchEvent.respondWith method.
Note: Because
onactivate could take a while to complete, the service worker spec provides a
waitUntil method that, when called
oninstall or
onactivate, passes a promise. Functional events are not dispatched to the service worker until the promise successfully resolves.
For a complete tutorial to show how to build up your first basic example, read Using Service Workers.
Other use case ideas
Service workers are also intended to be used for such things as:
- Background data synchronization
- Responding to resource requests from other origins
- Receiving centralized updates to expensive-to-calculate data such as geolocation or gyroscope, so multiple pages can make use of one set of data
- Client-side compiling and dependency management of CoffeeScript, less, CJS/AMD modules, etc. for dev purposes
- Hooks for background services
- Custom templating based on certain URL patterns
- Performance enhancements, for example pre-fetching resources that the user is likely to need in the near future, such as the new few pictures in a photo album.
In the future, service workers will be able to do a number of other useful things for the web platform that will bring it closer towards native app viability. Interestingly, other specifications can and will start to make use of the service worker context, for example:
- Background synchronization: Start up a service worker even when no users are at the site, so caches can be updated, etc.
- Reacting to push messages: Start up a service worker to send users a message to tell them new content is available.
- Reacting to a particular time & date
- Entering a geo-fence
- Represents the storage for
Responseobject pairs that are cached as part of the
ServiceWorkerlife cycle.
- Represents the storage for
Cacheobjects. It provides a master directory of all the named caches that a
ServiceWorkercan access and maintains a mapping of string names to corresponding
- Represents the scope of a service worker client. A service worker client is either a document in a browser context or a
SharedWorker, which is controlled by an active worker.
- Represents a container for a list of
Clientobjects; the main way to access the active service worker clients at the current origin.
- Extends the lifetime of the
activateevents dispatched on the
ServiceWorkerGlobalScopeas part of the service worker lifecycle. This ensures that any functional events (like
FetchEvent) are not dispatched to the
ServiceWorkeruntil it upgrades database schemas, deletes outdated cache entries, etc.
- The parameter passed into the
FetchEventrepresents a fetch action that is dispatched on the
ServiceWorkerGlobalScopeof a
ServiceWorker. It contains information about the request and resulting response, and provides the
FetchEvent.respondWith()method, which allows us to provide an arbitrary response back to the controlled page.
- The parameter passed into the
oninstallhandler, the
InstallEventinterface represents an install action that is dispatched on the
ServiceWorkerGlobalScopeof a
ServiceWorker. As a child of
ExtendableEvent, it ensures that functional events such as
FetchEventare not dispatched during installation.
- Returns a
ServiceWorkerContainerobject, which provides access to registration, removal, upgrade, and communication with the
ServiceWorkerobjects for the associated document.
- The parameter passed into the
onnotificationclickhandler, the
NotificationEventinterface represents a notification click event that is dispatched on the
ServiceWorkerGlobalScopeof a
The parameter passed into the sync handler, the SyncEvent interface represents a periodic sync action that is dispatched on the
ServiceWorkerGlobalScopeof a ServiceWorker.

Service Workers features are currently hidden behind a pref in many cases (Chrome now enables some of it by default.) To enable them:
- Firefox Nightly: Go to
about:configand set
true; restart browser. In Firefox you can also disable https-only checks by setting
true. In the future we'll likely have a whole slew of preferences that need enabling to access things like the
fetch()API (XHR replacement) and other features. But for now this will get you access to the features included so far.
- Chrome Canary: Go to
chrome://flagsand turn on
experimental-web-platform-features; restart browser.
enable-service-worker-syncis also available in Chrome if you want to play with background sync for service workers.
- Opera: Go to
opera://flagsand enable
Support for ServiceWorker; restart browser.
Note: You can find special service worker builds of Firefox with service workers enabled by default, and nascent features available that aren't yet available in Nightly.
Note: For backwards compatibility, you could choose to use service workers and AppCache on the same web app to do equivalent things (if the AppCache will support doing those things, of course.) What happens in such a case is that browsers that don't support Service Workers will use AppCache, and those that do will ignore the AppCache and let the service worker take over.

Four Rochy business owners behind idea for new festival
A new food and wine festival to be held in Rochester in April is the brainchild of four local business owners.RUTH CLAYTON February 13, 2013 4:33am
Moore St Festival organisers (L-R) Bernie's Wine Bar and Tavern's Bernie Stevenson, Rochester Hotel's Ashley Conway, Kits Kafe's Toryn Church and Shamrock Hotel's Karen Morris get into the spirit of the Food, Wine and Music on Moore St festival, to be held on Sunday, April 28.
Moore St businesses will receive a welcome boost in April with the news the street will be host to a music, food and wine festival.
The 'Food, Wine and Music on Moore' festival, on Sunday, April 28, is intended to showcase district musicians and promote local wine and produce, as well as improve the morale and trade of the street's hospitality businesses.
The news comes as the results of a Committee 4 Rochester survey, released last week, revealed Rochester residents would like to see more community events and activities in the town in the next 10 to 15 years.
The initiative was born from discussions between Moore St business owners from Kits Kafe, Bernie's Wine Bar, the Rochester Hotel and the Shamrock Hotel.
All four businesses will host various musicians on the day.
The Shamrock Hotel's Ian Crouch said the idea came about two weeks ago.
Mr Crouch's vision for the festival is a relaxed family-oriented afternoon with fine food, wine and music.
''We don't get much entertainment (in Rochester) or exposure
''We also want to promote some local wine and produce.
''Everything sort of revolves around Echuca and a lot of people travel to Echuca to the music festival (there).
''So if we can capture the local support in Rochy, it will be beneficial for everybody.''
Mr Crouch said events in Rochester were historically limited to one premise and this was the first time businesses had banded together to create an event.
He said if it was successful, the festival could potentially be an annual event.
Three district music acts have already put their hands up to take part in the event, but more are being sought.
Mr Crouch said the festival committee would have its first meeting this week.
To get involved in the festival as a musician, see Mr Crouch at the Shamrock Hotel.

- United Technologies (UTX +0.1%) subsidiary Pratt & Whitney has reportedly reached a deal worth more than $1B with the Pentagon to build 39 engines for a sixth batch of F-35 Joint Strike Fighters.
- The Pentagon agreed to buy the jets, excluding the engines, from Lockheed Martin (LMT -0.1%) in July. It buys the engines separately from Pratt & Whitney, which is the sole producer of engines for the radar-evading warplane.

For the first 4 1/2 weeks i didnt get to do anything for myself, i was happy if i was able to squeeze in a nap or a shower. But for the last week and a half ive been more successful and have to say that i am really happy that i can give one of the breaks between feedings to my art. And being very inspired by this lovely time, i started making nursery art. I have a character that im using, and to make it worth while, i am making a set of alphabet pictures to put in my etsy shop. Every penny is good! Do you have a hobby, and are you yet able to do a little bit, or do you plan to?
Hobbies and do you have time for them?
Posted 01/24/2013
Haven17, id oove to read some of your baby material! Maybe i can provide some illustrations;)
Posted 01/24/2013
Hey, so here is an example of the nursery art I make.
You can see all the other letters in my shop www.jimmythesheep.etsy.com . I am still working on the rest of the alphabet, should have all the rest within a week.

I brew beer. I'm in a beer club too. I've started a batch of cream stout "to help boost my milk production" lol. I heard it helps but really its just my excuse to brew a batch before I go back to work.

I'm starting to find time for hobbies. I like making and decorating cakes, cooking, working out, scrapbooking and playing games. It's been hard synchronizing my toddler and 6-week-old's naps so I have time, but some days I get lucky.

Your right looks are a HUGE part of modeling but just because your fit the physical sandards doesn't mean you fit the menal. You need to have great selfesteem and confidence. You will constantly be critisized over the smallest things. Sometimes different people will tell you the exact oposit things! I was asked to come meet and agent in my city. I'm excited! If you guys have any questions about it I know quite abit about th fashion industry! I will be glad to answer anyone questions!
Some of my favorite models are chanel iman, karlie kloss, lindsey wixson, arlenis sosa, candice swanepoel, and heirith paul! any Q's just ask me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

by pinklol56 on 2/26/2011 11:12:48 AM
hey holliesuxx, i have no experience in the modeling world, but in any realistic book about a model it totally backs up what u said, good luck!!
by jewels96 on 2/26/2011 12:09:20 AM
My grandma and one of my mom's friends want me to model, but I'm not so sure about it. It seems like a slightly conceited job in my opinion; almost as if you only have your looks to carry you through life, but then again, the world needs the models, haha! And I've heard that they consistently put you down..... doesn't sound that great.....
by lilgirlkt on 2/25/2011 11:31:10 PM
Oh holliesuxx if you are really telling the truth PLEASE HELP ME OUT. I wanted to comment on your profile but it seems i can't for some reason. I've been trying to get into modeling forever now and i just need help on WHERE TO START. Please if you cant comment back. Maybe i can give you my email of something and see if i can get some helpful tips on where to even begin, and how did you begin. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HOLLIESUXX IF YOU ARE TELLING THE TRUTH PLEASE HELP! thank you
by Jeana G on 2/25/2011 10:17:09 PM
@holliesuxx i know what you mean i model too and everyone thinks that you just need a pretty face to model but it's so much more then that. I totally agree with you about winter and summer shoots but hey like u said at the end it's really fun

CRM for Financial and Insurance Markets
Customer relationship management (CRM) focuses on the retention of customers by collecting data from all customer interactions with a company from all access points (by phone, mail, or Web, or in the field). The company can then use this data for specific business purposes by taking a customer-centric rather than a product-centric approach. CRM applications are front-end tools designed to facilitate the capture, consolidation, analysis, and enterprise-wide dissemination of data from existing and potential customers. This process occurs throughout the marketing, sales, and service stages, with the objective of better understanding one's customers and anticipating their interest in an enterprise's products or services.

With advancements in technology, data science capability and competence is becoming a minimum entry requirement in areas which have not traditionally been thought of as data-focused industries. As more companies perceive the significance of real-time data capture and analysis, data as a service will become the next big thing. India is now the third largest internet user after China and the U.S., and the Indian economy has been growing rapidly. Read this white paper to find out more about how data SaaS is set to become a vital part of business intelligence and analytics, and how India will play a role in this trend.

Data Management and Analysis
From a business perspective, the role of data management and analysis is crucial. It is not only a resource for gathering new stores of static information; it is also a resource for acquiring knowledge and supporting the decisions companies need to make in all aspects of economic ventures, including mergers and acquisitions (M&As).
For organizational growth, all requirements and opportunities must be accurately communicated throughout the value chain. All users—from end users to data professionals—must have the most accurate data tools and systems in place to efficiently carry out their daily tasks. Data generation development, data quality, document and content management, and data security management are all examples of data-related functions that provide information in a logical and precise manner.

J.R. Martinez DWTS Winner is Going to Be A Dad
By Cathy on December 18, 2011
Dancing with the Stars winner, J.R. Martinez has more exciting news, he is going to be a father!! The Iraq war veteran and his girlfriend, Diana Gonzalez-Jones, will welcome a baby next spring.
"We found out just last week it's a girl and we are over the moon," Martinez, 28, told PEOPLE. "Diana has a little baby bump now and it's the cutest thing ever. With the holidays coming up, this is the biggest and best gift we could get."
The couple met when Martinez landed a role on All My Children in 2008. At the time, Gonzalez-Jones was working as an assistant to the soap's executive producer.

Jennifer Lopez, Pitbull Reportedly OK After Shots Fired During Video Shoot
Jennifer Lopez

Apparently, 43-year-old Jennifer Lopez was filming a video for the song "Live It Up" on Fort Lauderdale Beach yesterday when shots were fired in the vicinity.
Entertainment Tonight co-host Rob Marciano tweeted that he was interviewing her when shots rang out:
"BREAKING: Gunshots fired on Fort Lauderdale Beach DURING my JLo interview. No kidding. Security scrambled her away."
Fort Lauderdale police had a slightly different take. A spokesperson said in a statement:
"FLPD responded to a call of shots fired at the northernmost point of Ft. Lauderdale Bch Park parking lot (800 Seabreeze Blvd). Jennifer Lopez and her crew were filming in the southernmost end of this area.
Officers attempted to investigate the incident; however, there was no evidence of a shooting, no known witnesses, no injuries and no further information.
The FLPD Captain overseeing the security for the event, involving Jennifer Lopez, advised FLPD-PIO that she was secured inside her vehicle at the time of the incident."
Lopez's boyfriend Casper Smart and rapper Pitbull were also on set yesterday, according to celebrity gossip site Justjared.com, which has photos.

2013 NCAA Tournament Keys to Upset: Syracuse Orange
The Syracuse Orange play the role of underdog as often as little kids say they despise cartoons. However, that is exactly where the team finds themselves heading into their Sweet 16 match-up against the Indiana Hoosiers. Not that an Orange win would be a monumental upset, but it would be considered a little bit of a surprise considering the NCAA Tournament seeding of both teams.
Michael Carter-Williams Version?
Carter-Williams is a bit of an enigma. The sophomore has undeniable talent and troublesome size for opponents. Yet, he also carries the perceived baggage of being a not so swell basketball player from time to time. Williams is going to need to bring the best version of himself if the Orange has any plans on winning.
Is it Christmas Time Yet?
Rakeem Christmas doesn't get a ton of playing time nor does he strike other-worldly fear into opponents' hearts. Still, the big man can help play a crucial role in the possible success of Syracuse. Whether Jim Boeheim has him play the role of goon or just as a filler, Christmas has to make the most out of his minutes on the court. What Indiana does as well as Syracuse is rebound. Christmas needs to help off-set the otherwise even rebounding battle and tilt it in the favor of the Orange.
Be Syracuse.
Pretty simple really. Syracuse cannot get caught up in Indian's sometimes up-tempo style of play. The Orange might be physically gifted enough to keep up in spurts, but are not accustomed to playing that style of basketball. Being a member of the Big East Conference very rarely screams transition hoops.
On a Scale of 1-100 Chances of Upset (Likelihood of winning. Not if I think they can)
44 (Although, this wouldn't really be an upset)

Mod Spotlight: Creepy Creepers Creeping Creepily
Creepers! The first, true original monster to jump-out of Minecraft and right into our hearts. Well, for most people. For others, they're one of the biggest menaces in any given game of Minecraft, and possibly something to truly fear, even in your most defensive times. But even these explosive monsters are not immune to the Minecraft modding bug, and have had their role in the game altered in a few unique ways. And in celebration of 18 different countries celebrating their independence this month, we're going to look at some of these Creeper-based mods.
One of the more well-known Creeper mods is Elemental Creepers. This mod takes the initial, heart-stopping effect of the Creepers, and expands upon it in a couple dozen ways, adding several different kinds of Creepers to the game that each have different effects upon exploding. Some of them, like the Fire Creeper, Water Creeper or Snow Creeper might be a bit more obvious in what they do, while others (such as the Psychic Creeper or Illusion Creeper) are a lot more tricky.
Yet more of these creepers can actually be beneficial, such as the Stone Creeper, while yet more are outright benevolent, like the Cookie Creeper and the Friendly Creeper (which you can feed gunpowder to keep as a pet).
The addition of all these different Creepers can make for a tougher, but very interesting game. There's a lot more danger, sure, but it definitely liven things up when you have to do a little more than avoid a little explosion!
Just be sure to watch-out for the Big Bad Creep!
If you want a bit of Creeper variety, but without all the danger of Elemental Creepers, then Female Creepers might be an interesting mod for you. This mod adds pink "female" Creepers to the game. These pink Creepers are completely passive and are unable to explode. They mill about like other passive mods, and will occasionally lay male and female Creeper eggs—sometimes with a baby Creeper inside, and sometimes empty. All the eggs can be boiled into a food item that can restore a little health, or then be combined into Creeper egg soup. Eggs containing babies can be thrown like chicken eggs for a chance at making a baby Creeper, which can create teeny-tiny explosions.
Additionally, this mod causes the female and normal Creepers to drop "Creeper skin," which can be crafted into a full suite of armor. Having a whole set of one type can cause Creepers to be pacified.
Female Creepers is a somewhat light mod, but it can eventually give you some nice benefits in a new farmable food source, and a special way to avoid the wrath of Creepers.
Just when you thought the ocean was safe, there's a new way to explode in the world. The Aquatic Creepers mod is exactly what it sounds like—it adds a new fish-like mod that spawns in the ocean, and otherwise acts as a Creeper would. These aquatic Creepers have got some nice speed in the water, and can be quite a hazard if you're trying to cross an ocean.
The aquatic Creepers are near-constantly leaping out of the water, so you may be able to avoid them if you can see them. But otherwise, this little mod certainly adds new depth to the Minecraft oceans.
So, maybe you're like me and you're not looking for a way to make the game more difficult. I prefer to play calm games of Minecraft, but sometimes turning the game on peaceful can deny me some of those mob drops. But having to deal with surprise Creepers can be a huge pain! Creeper Confetti, however, can help with that! This is a very simple mod that basically neutralizes the vanilla Creepers. They still spawn and walk around, but rather than exploding, causing damage and ruining the terrain, they simply explode into firework particles
Creepers giving you trouble? Now they're festive!
So, if you're looking to lighten the mood of your Minecraft game, but don't want to switch entirely to peaceful, adding Creeper Confetti can be a nice alternative!
All four of these mods are available through the Curse client on the latest version of Forge. Try to check them out if you can!

ModPack Spotlight: AIE Nomads
AIE Nomads is a pack that focuses explicitly on technological mods. Similar to Notch's original vision of the game, there are no magical mods included. It is the official modpack for the Nomads of Alea Iacta Est, a social gaming community that had its start in World of Warcraft. The group has thousands of members spread between dozens of different MMOs. It was only a matter of time until they entered the modded Minecraft world, and with them, they brought a finely-tuned modpack.
Starting off in AIE Nomads isn't difficult. While they do give you a set of beginner tools, they are practically useless. The axe functions better than the sword as a weapon, for crying out loud! Since this modpack was built for server play, what you start off with doesn't matter too much. The creators expect you to have allies that can back you up if you need things like food, weapons, or resources at the start of the game. Of course, it's simple to play solo, if you're that kind of player. Although the description says that it has added 'aspects of challenge,' it is not a difficult pack by any means.
What it does do is set up a streamlined ascension to power. By utilizing the Eureka mod, players can quickly and easily follow a path that catches them up with other players. Because of Hunger Overhaul, setting up a farm and home will be a priority, but that should be no problem. There are plenty of fruit trees and wild vegetables for you to grab in your first few days. After you have that set up, a little strip mining at the lower y levels will get you all the resources you need to start automating right away.
The main tech mods are all staples in the modding community: Mariculture, AE2, Forestry, Buildcraft, Rail Craft, Thermal Dynamics, Tinker's Construct, and Redstone Arsenal. Big Reactors isn't quite a staple yet, but it has made its way into this modpack. Since I usually rely on bees as an extremely inefficient means of power, I am happy to see Binnie's Mods extending Forestry in this pack. Industrial Craft 2 is noticeably absent, but this doesn't affect the playability of the modpack. There are a few mods focused on decoration that have made their way into the pack—namely, anything related to Bibliocraft. Chisel, DecoCraft2, and FloodLights are also included to make life a bit more beautiful.
Playing without any kind of magic mod is definitely jarring. Thaumcraft is at the core of so many modpacks that it's surprising when there aren't Silverwoods dotting the landscape or aura nodes faintly glowing in the air. At the same time, this is what gives AIE Nomads its charm. The game feels more realistic and allows players to pursue many different kinds of technologies, rather than different branches of magic. The inclusion of Eureka makes it easy for magic junkies to catch up with all the different tech mods included (and I have to admit, I am one of those people). That being said, be sure to keep the books you start with this time around!
The modpack is currently a work in progress, but it's unlikely that any massive changes will be made to it. Rather than that, you can expect mods to simply be added or updated. This pack was built for a server, so ensuring that it is stable was likely one of Stigg's priorities. If you are interested in playing modded Minecraft without magic, this would be a good place to start. Of course, you should play on a server with friends if you want to get the full experience.
Community Roundtable: The Theme of Minecraft
Every game has a theme of some kind. Batman games are dark, gritty, and full of punching in a quasi-modern setting. Zelda games are clearly fantasy-oriented, aiming more at magic than technology....
