You didn't know any of that before you decided to download it? I hope its the last time you do that. Your character is not limited because they can set skills to decay or lock them ala UO. You can shift your skill gains and refocus quite quickly.
The game is intended as 1st person only. . I felt that added some depth. The game is still wrecked but is good fun for at least a month of two if you get past the first 2 hours or so of gameplay and get into it.
Wa min God! Se æx on min heafod is!

Yeah, because apparently you need three years of experience to enjoy the game and avoid the bugs.. This will make for a great first impression.

OK. But this guy didn´t even mention a bug. He missunderstood what the game was all about. How the skillpoints system works, and how much skillpoints you have. That there was only first person view. And killing pigs looks ugly. And saying DF1 looks better made me LOL. But to each their own I guess. But I add you as well to possible future reviewers cause you think 10-20 minutes or however long it took for this guy to ask in help then kill 4 pigs before logging out. That sure is enough time to review a MMO right?
Edit. Now I leave you to do your "thing" here. This good review for MO has made some here SO mad and I love it. So had to come here and see the rage first hand, but it quickly gets boring, cause I arguee with the same 4-5 guys as always. Have fun you all. And prolly see most of you in DF:UW...

Sure, Thats the first time we've seen that around here. /sarcasm off

You always say that, and yet you keep returning, calling other people mad haters while you yourself come off as one of the most aggressive and flamboyant posters here, spouting straw men and superlatives left and right.
Why don't you just leave once and for all if we are so horrible? One almost gets the impression that you like this site a lil' bit. : )

As Hancakes pointed out, you openly posted in the "What have you done for Mortal Online" thread listing all the things you had done (review writing is one of them) to "help promote the game". When you are TRYING TO PROMOTE THE GAME you are not "reviewing it" you are advertising for it. There is quite a difference.
You are certainly allowed to like the game. In my opinion though, reading the info we have through your numerous posts on the MO forums... that was about as legitimate a review as if I wrote one myself
"I should point out that no other company has shipped out a beta on a disc before this." - Official Mortal Online Lead Community Moderator
Starvault's reponse to criticism related to having a handful of players as the official "test" team for a supposed MMO: "We've just have another 10ish folk kind enough to voulenteer added tot the test team" (SIC) This explains much about the state of the game :-)

The problem is MO is much more of a sandbox than Darkfall, and Tasos not really caring about anything else than pvp doesn't bode well for Darkfall UW.
MO feels like Morrowind mmorpg, Darkfall is what? Fantasy counterstrike?
There's a lot more depth in MO and now after 2 years, while still far from perfect, it's working great (with minor non-gamebreaking bugs). Knowing AV, Darkfall UW will be really ready after the fixing in about 1 year (one of the devs said he's worried due to the lack of time to fix the game for launch) and them being very slow developers aswell, it will have a lot less sandbox features than MO.
But perhaps we'll get the Fun Go Karts again... Mario, here I come! /sarcasm.
While MO is now finally really starting to grow into something great (the more I play the more I am enjoying myself in the complexity of this game), DF 2 will be far from it on the sandbox level (MO is becoming a sandbox while DF not much more than a PVP game); but I'll be resubing to DF on the 12th anyway to try it out (but AV will probably postpone again, as they always do).

Check and mate! Actually your review would be more legitimate, not under the guise of being a real reviewer.

Yet DF1 actually worked, great ideas dont make a game even after 2 years. Regarding the "complexity", I assume you mean exploit management? Whats complex about MO?
BTW, please source your statements regarding DF-UW.

Originally posted by Hancakes
Yep, the game was too broken before, so I didn't play. Now that it is working fine since Awakening I tried it as it went f2p, and it's now working great. Not perfect but still great, to the point of getting me to play almost night and day for the past week which no mmo managed to do in a long time. As for the long term content I have no worries with what the ingame players tell me.
No, by complexity I mean the depth of the sanbox features. The more I dive into it the more I find. Regarding exploits, have you played Darkfall at all???? All of the clans have exploited Darkfall to hell and back.
Regarding the 2 sources:
1. is the mmorpg.com video interview with Tasos available here and on youtube (he says he is only interested in pvp and they don't have time nor ressources to develop sandbox features, so these Darkfall won't have). Even local banking, he says it won't have it because players wouldn't like it (but in MO it works great, players are hauling sacs of goods on horses all over the world -> it feels more like a world and this creates more pvp, more immersion and fun).
2. the Darkfall developer who said he's worried because they have to rush it and don't have time to finish the game properly for launch. There's also a thread about this here.

That's the reason why I didn't play before, but MO is fine now (not perfect, but still great).
And the game can only grow form now on, where as Darkfall will have everything to do... and sandbox features it won't have, according to the Tasos interview last week (he cares only about pvp, he is not interested in sanbox features + he said they don't have time/ressources for them, so they won't do them). Only Pvp and basic crafting.

That's the thing about MO. Naive folks have been talking about its "potential" to grow for over two years now. Difference is, we've actually played longer then a 'week' and know all too well that it isn't happening.

you people act like spoiled brats, MO has 2-3 friggin devs. So get off your AAA idea ass's. Its a indy company. I just started this game the day it went free to play, i thought the same as you all thought, Till i actually got off my ass and tried it, and guess what, i like the game. I got a sub and donated 25 bucks for the grey halls bit. This is why indy companies fail, Too many kids in mmos these days screaming i want i wan and never contribute to helping a game get better nor the they attempt to fund it. Instead they play fourm warriors and hide behind the keyboard in there mommys basement. Say what u want about MO, but i enjoy and yes i agree it gas bugs that needs fixed, but for such few devs they are doing a pretty good job. If anything go bash Guild Wars 2. that massive dev team yet the game is riddled with more bugs then MO. and That is a fact as i played gw2 , got the lvl 80 char gears etc. and only endgame ya got is wvw or spvp and guess what, wvw is bugged most of the time. Anyhow point it, stop bashing games ya dont like, How is the gener to ever change if people make it a point to bash a game into oblivion till it finally goes poof. Then these same turds bashing sit on fourms crying why devs wont take risks anymore and why there isnt really many really unique games out there. Personally if i had the money i wouldnt make an mmo, too many ungreatful people out there with the im spoiled attitude. flame do wat i want. dont care. end of the day most of ya will still be crying the same tunes, while me n the other smart ones plays indys games and helps them develope.

Learn to use paragraphs, enter button is your friend. Secondly, it is "indie", not "indy".
Anyways, here are some news for you. The reason that MO has "2-3 devs" (while in reality they are ~5) is because of their own incompetence. They started as a strong team of 20 people or so and had to lay off because the game was of extremely poor quality. EvE too is indie, yet they somehow managed to get it working for them. It is a harsh industry. If the game is poor quality, it is poor, being "indie" doesn't give them free pass. You should take a deep breath and relax.

Difference is MO now achieved a very playable state, which it didn't have before.
Regarding naive people, it seems to me that you were naive enough to play a broken game, which I refused to play... because it was broken. I started really playing now, now that it works.
Furthermore, MO is all we have. There is no other sanbox mmorpg of this kind with such possibilities. Darkfall's content is not coming faster (they even went away for 1 year to redo the engine to rewamp the graphics and FINALLY ADD evironmental sounds.... nothing more was done with DF 2.... and the year before they already lost 1 year to redo the graphics in DF 1), and as Tasos said last week it will not be more than a pvp contest game with limited crafting.
So, here are our choices:
1. Wow and all of its copies (SWTOR, GW2, AoC, Rift,...) -> the exact same game in a different setting. I'm tired and can't play this same thing over and over again anymore.
2. EVE, Darkfall and MO.... MO having Darfall's features but being much more. It's the only fantasy mmorpg sandbox.

However i can tell you got one of those atitudes so ima leave this thread before i get banned. All i can say is these days, watching indy games, I hate Gamers, all they do is destroy games most of the time instead of helping them. Peace.

Vintage Selection makes for a great simple, everyday look. I like to use my fingers to apply this and to blend it. This applies very easily and lasts all day. It is also buildable, but I feel it looks and lasts best when just one layer is applied. I have had no problems with this drying out and I have had mine since it was released in the permanent collection. The product is also easily accessible in the pot, unlike brands like Bobbi Brown where I have to use a brush just to get the product out.
MAC Vintage Selection Pro Longwear Paint Pot ($18.50 for 0.17 oz.) is described as a "frosted dirty peach." It's a subtly, warm-toned, lightened brown with a slightly frosted, champagne sheen. Make Up For Ever #13 is less warm-toned. Benefit RSVP is also similar. bareMinerals Libation is very similar but a powder product.

Once Upon a Time
Once Upon a Time Season 2 Spoiler: Will We See Prince Philip Again?
With so many new characters coming and going on Once Upon a Time Season 2, we often wish we'd gotten to know them better before they either died (Quinn) or disappeared (Lancelot). So imagine our surprise and delight when we saw this photo.
Read spoilers at your own risk! For more on Wetpaint Entertainment's philosophy on spoilers, click here.
Jamie Chung (Mulan) tweeted the photo below on November 13, writing "don't be jealous ladies..." That's Jamie with Julian Morris aka Prince Philip! They appear to be on a plane together, which doesn't necessarily mean that they're on set together filming scenes for OUAT, but we definitely have our hopes up.
As we pointed out after the premiere, Prince Philip never technically died, and Cora (Barbara Hershey) has since confirmed that means he could be brought back.
Do you think this photo is a sign that Prince Philip is alive? Will Mulan and Sleeping Beauty (Sarah Bolger) save him?
Update! Showrunner Adam Horowitz has confirmed that we will see Philip again, "and soonish."
Read more OUAT spoilers here.
Once Upon a Time Season 2 returns on Sunday, January 6, 2013 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

ACCA's Global Forum for Corporate Reporting developed the detailed feedback to the IASB's consultation, saying that the concepts of prudence and accountability need to be addressed and explained in this Conceptual Framework.
Richard Martin, head of corporate reporting at ACCA, comments: 'This Framework is important as it helps the IASB prepare, develop and revise IFRS in a coherent and consistent way.
'While accountability is referred to in the Framework, and prudence is built into the existing IFRS in a number of ways, both need to be given more importance in the Framework.'
ACCA broadly welcomes the proposals on measurement and the choice between different measures such as cost and market values as going a long way to providing appropriate guidance. This should help fill one of the major holes in the current framework.
However in another critical area – what should be part of profit for the year and what can be treated as other comprehensive income – more work needs to be done to develop definitions and principles. There are other gaps in the Framework where no concept or principle seems to be included – such as on the unit of account issue, de-recognition and disclosures.
Richard Martin adds: 'This is an unsatisfactory situation where important aspects of setting accounting standards are missing. We also need a more coherent definition of liabilities that brings together the approach to conditional liabilities, constructive liabilities and the implications of economic compulsion.'
ACCA's response to the consultation can be found via the 'Related Link's section, left of this article.

One year ago, a team of Googlers started working with a handful of schools in South Carolinas Lowcountry.
Today, Googles CS First has continued rolling out to new schools across the nation as a full-blown computer science toolkit that is inspiring students across America.
From Charleston to San Francisco, over 1,400 students have taken part in more than 100 unique programs. Whats more, there isnt a cost for students to take part in CS First.
Googles teaching fellows who work at South Carolinas Berkeley County Data Center design the clubs and volunteers organize and implement the clubs in their local communities.
As students head back to school around the country this fall, thousands more will experience success like two South Carolina students featured in Googles new CS
The response from school administrators has been enthusiastic. We have to give students access to amazing opportunities, said Kevin Smith, principal at Charlestons C.E. Williams Middle School. CS First for our school has been an opportunity for students to engage curriculum and computer science in a way they have never even seen it its opened up students horizons.
New CS First clubs are starting across South Carolina this fall as well. Where, and how many, is determined largely by the number volunteers who want to help. If you are interested in bringing a computer science club to your school or want to volunteer, visit cs-first.com.
CS First began in the summer of 2013 at Googles Data Center in Berkeley County. The company hired a team of Teaching Fellows and program managers to develop the curriculum and put it into action. After seeing the success in South Carolina, Googlers at other facilities across the country started using the materials to launch clubs where they live.

Atrioventricular canal defect occurs during fetal growth when your baby's heart is developing. While some factors, such as Down syndrome, may increase the risk of atrioventricular canal defect, in most cases the cause is unknown.
Your heart is divided into four chambers, two on the right and two on the left. In performing its basic job — pumping blood throughout your body — your heart uses its left and right sides for different tasks. The right side moves blood into vessels that lead to your lungs. In your lungs, oxygen enriches your blood, which circulates to your heart's left side. The left side of your heart pumps blood into a large vessel called the aorta, which circulates blood to the rest of your body. Valves control the flow of blood into and out of the chambers of your heart. These valves open to allow blood to move to the next chamber or to one of the arteries, and they close to keep blood from flowing backward.
In partial atrioventricular canal defect, a hole exists in the wall (septum) that separates the upper chambers (atria) of the heart. Also, the mitral valve between the upper and lower left chambers often has a defect called a cleft that causes it to leak (mitral valve regurgitation).
In complete atrioventricular canal defect, there's a large hole in the center of the heart where the walls between the upper chambers (atria) and lower chambers (ventricles) meet. Instead of two separate valves — one on the right (tricuspid) and one on the left (mitral) — one large common valve exists between the upper and lower chambers. And, this valve may not close tightly.
Oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor blood mix through the hole in the septum, and the abnormal valves leak blood into the heart's lower chambers (ventricles). These problems make the heart work harder, causing it to enlarge.

This isn't the most pigmented of Nars's shadow duos but I love it for a quick easy eye for work days or for lunching out, etc. The somewhat lighter/more glittery side doesn't show up amazingly well and works best over a base or primer that will enhance its colour (something like Sephora's Taupe Jumbo Pencil or, for a more complex look, MAC Constructivist as a base, which is how I wear it most often). The right hand shade is much smoother and more pigmented and very nice to apply and works great on the outer lid and in the crease with the lighter shade on the lid. The two shades are just a nice, easy combo for days when you don't want your eyes to look obviously made up. Black liner, applied just at the roots of my lashes, sets this combo off very nicely.
So it may not be the most exciting colour combo in Nars's range but Tokyo is such a great duo for mornings when you're in a rush, don't want to have to spend time blending and blending, let alone thinking about what to put on the lid or in the crease or in the outer V. While these aren't deep or vibrant colours, they still are highly pigmented so they do a lot to make my lids look better and more "done" than if I don't wear anything at all. And they will mix with just about any other shadows you own if you do want to work in a 3rd shadow to define your crease or deepen the outer V, etc. Tokyo is a simple and sophisticated duo and very versatile.

This duo is just as wonderful as Christine described it in her review. I was so delighted to find it available at Sephora. Both shadows are so pigmented and smooth so they apply beautifully. The pairing is very flattering and versatile too, which isn't something you can say about all of Nars's shadow pairings. The purple side is a beautiful, feminine clear purple (no "bruised eyes" look with this) but what I'm even more delighted with is the champagne side as it's identical to UD's Mauie Wowie but without the uncontrollable glitter fallout.

Having not tried Nars products before, I chose the Mediteranee eyeshadow duo as my shades for my Nars makeover with a make up artist. The duo consists of a light gold shade and an orange shade. I was a little worried that the orange would look weird but used together the combination is stunning. I was most impressed with the colour payoff. You don't need to use a lot and the formula is perfect for blending. Needless to say I bought the duo and cannot wait to wear it with the MAC all about orange lipsticks.
I would have given this four stars, but I believe this is way overpriced. The shadows aren't bad, but they definitely are not amazing. The two shades in this duo are a light champagne pink that is cooler tones, and a light, slightly orangey gold. Together for a really soft look, these are great, but even with a primer they tend to fade on me. These aren't the softest shadows, either, so that may have something to do with it. They're kind of sheer, but can be pretty if you like that. I like this duo, especially for travel, but again, these are so overpriced. Overall, for 34 dollars (I think thats what they are), you could get ten eyeshadows at the drugstore that work just as well.

The Scandal That Will Bring Obama Down
It's even worse than we previously thought. A retired four-star admiral is now claiming that Barack Obama intentionally conspired with America's enemies to stage a bogus attack and the kidnapping of an American ambassador so he could "negotiate" the release of a "hostage" and bolster his mediocre approval ratings just prior to the election?
The Washington Examiner, quoting retired Four-Star Admiral James Lyons, writes: "the attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… that would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the 'Blind Sheik'…"
But something went horribly wrong with Obama's "October Surprise." Although the Obama Administration intentionally gutted security at the consulate prior to the staged kidnapping, former Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty disobeyed direct orders to stand down, saved American lives, single-handedly killed scores of attackers…and the attackers, believing that the Obama had betrayed them, tortured Ambassador Chris Stevens and dragged his body through the streets.
Some will say that Admiral Lyons' accusation is not a smoking gun. We agree, that's exactly why Congress must investigate Benghazi-gate.
Moreover, we firmly believe the problem with Admiral Lyons' assertion is that he is only scratching the surface the full and complete truth may be much, much worse.
Benghazi-gate is not about a bogus YouTube video series of lies. It's not about the Obama Administration's foreign policy ineptitude. We are dealing with something much more sinister… something potentially treasonous… and the following questions, posed in an article in The New American, go to the heart of the matter:
1.: : : : : : : "What was the Obama administration's full role in helping violent Jihadists, self-styled al Qaeda terrorists, and Western-backed "revolutionaries" take over Libya in the first place?
2.: : : : : : : Did that half-baked scheme to arm Jihadist leaders, who… had previously fought U.S. troops in Iraq, contribute to the attack, as countless experts and officials have suggested?
3.: : : : : : : What was actually going on at the compound in Benghazi, which as the report states, was never a "consulate" despite establishment media claims?
4.: : : : : : : Was Ambassador Stevens recruiting and arming Jihadists and terrorists to wage war on the Syrian regime after what Obama called the "success" in Libya, as a growing body of credible evidence suggests?
5.: : : : : : : Why did the administration claim for so long that the attack was just a "protest" over a YouTube video gone awry, even when it knew definitively that was not the case?
6.: : : : : : : Was the lack of security at the compound a political ploy to conceal the extent of the lawlessness and utter chaos left in the wake of Obama's unconstitutional "regime change" war on Libya, as even members of Congress have alleged?"
It's clear. Benghazi-Gate is only a small piece of a much larger operation, an attempt to conceal what The New American calls; "the Obama administration's full role in helping violent Jihadists and self-styled al Qaeda terrorists."
Prior to the election Barack Obama continually told us that "Osama bin-Laden is dead and GM is alive," but the sad truth is that Osama bin-Laden's organization is alive and well and the Obama Regime may be giving aid and comfort to this terrorist network.
And prior to the election, Fox News' Geraldo Rivera pontificated that Republicans shouldn't "politicize" Benghazi-gate. Swaggering onto the set of Fox and Friends Rivera bloviated: "I think we have to stop this politicizing" and Rivera issued the following veiled warning to Republicans: "Do we want to try and influence the election with a tragedy that happened in North Africa?"
Ironic, isn't it? Barack Obama played politics with the lives of Americans, like Rivera, the media covered Obama's rear and threatened to accuse anyone and everyone who mentioned it of "playing politics."
Weak-willed Republicans apparently took Rivera's threat to heart as Rivera also said that Republican Senators John Barrasso, James Inhofe and Bob Corker, who all sit on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee "all agree that the supercharged atmosphere around the story – prudence dictates that these hearings be postponed until" after the election.
Well, the election has come and gone. Congress now has no excuse. The American people needed the truth before the election, but now that Obama is back in the White House real conservatives must demand answers.
The American people deserve to have those questions answered and moreover the American people deserve justice.

Republicans on how to fix the GOP
As Republicans gather in Charlotte, N.C., for the RNC's Winter Meeting this week, party leaders are debating how to best bounce back from an election where they lost the White House for the second time in a row, touching off a lot of soul-searching within the GOP. Here's what some major players are saying:
"It's time to stop looking at elections through the lens of 'battleground states.' We have four years till the next presidential election, and being a 'blue state' is NOT a permanent diagnosis. … Simple 'outreach' a few months before an election will not suffice. In fact, let's stop talking about 'reaching out'—and start working on welcoming in. Political support is cultivated over time—not collected on Election Day." — RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, in a speech to be delivered Friday, according to POLITICO Playbook.(Photo: AP Photo)

Shield, and finally Desert Storm, culminating in the
West's attempt to establish a new world order. Now,
nearly a year later, the world is still waiting to see what
shape the new Middle East will take.

Fred Smith is the founder and president of the
Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), a Washington
D.C.-based public interest group committed to advancing the principals of free enterprise and limited
government. One of CEI's major issue areas is environmental policy, and Smith has been recognized as
one of the leading proponents of free market environmentalism.
Mr. Smith's numerous articles on public policy issues
have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times,
Washington Post, and The National Review. Smith has
debated environmental issues on television programs
such as "This Week With David Brinkley," CNN's
"Crossfire," and "Good Morning America."
Before founding CEI, Mr. Smith was a senior policy
analyst at the Environmental Protection Agency, senior
research economist for the Association of American
Railroads, and director of government affairs for the
Council for a Competitive Economy. He received his
undergraduate degree from Tulane University and his

Europe and the Soviet Union, democratic government seems about to become the rule rather than the
exception among world governments. But if that is so,
what is left of America's own exceptional mission to
embody the democratic cause? What does America have
left to contribute to the world?
These urgent questions will be addressed by Michael
Novak, one of the nation's most distinguished social
commentators, who is the first speaker in the Gould
Center and Salvatori Center's series on "The Common
Good: Unifying Elements in the American Experience."
Theologian, author, and former U.S. ambassador,

in Religion and Public Policy at the American Enterprise
Institute in Washington, D.C., where he also serves as
director of social and political studies. He has writter
more than twenty influential books, including The Rise
of the Unmeltable Ethnics (1972), The Joy of Sports: End Zones, Bases, Baskets, Balls, and the Consecration of the American Spirit (1976), The Spirit of
Democratic Capitalism (1991), Freedom With Justice: Catholic Social
Thought and Liberal Institutions (1984), and his latest work, This
Hemisphere of Liberty: A Philosophy of the Americas (1990). In 1986, he headed part of the U.S
delegation to the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, a continuation of the Helsinki Accord
His lecture is offered in conjunction with the Gould
Center and Salvatori Center's seminar on "The Common Good," a course organized around the question of

anniversary of the discovery of the New World,
Kirkpatrick Sale asks us to reconsider the common
myths surrounding Christopher Columbus. In his most
recent book, The Conquest of Paradise: Christopher
Columbus and the Columbian Legacy (1991), Mr. Sale presents a
revised version of the storied seaman, describing him as
"unstable, rootless, avaricious, and deceptive."
According to Mr. Sale, Europe's "encounter" with
the New World is responsible for many of the political
and environmental problems of our time. The Indians
lived in peace and harmony with nature, while the
Europeans were more concerned with the domination
of the world around them. This focus on dominance,
over nature as well as over the Indians, eventually
spread throughout the world. Mr. Sale holds the
Europeans accountable for nations warring over land
and for the world-wide pollution of our air and water.
Please join us in welcoming Mr. Sale as part of the
Athenaeum's "499 Years Ago" series. Be prepared to
reevaluate your impressions of the "discovery" of the
New World. Return the enclosed reservation form if you
plan to attend. Dinner begins at 6:00 and the speech will
commence at 7:00.

Beethoven will be presented for the first time under
the auspices of The Joint Music Program. Two of the
ensembles of the Colleges, the Claremont Chamber
Orchestra and the Concert Choir, are working this fall
toward the concert which will be presented in Bridges
Auditorium on November 8. Joining with the colleges'
musical groups will be singers from five different
community music organizations in Claremont and the
College Choir from Occidental College.
The Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum will host the
conductor of this concert, Michael Deane Lamkin, as he
discusses this work of Beethoven in both its historical
and present-day context. Using recorded excerpts of the
Ninth Symphony and slides of Vienna, Lamkin will give
a concise presentation in preparation for the concert.
Besides Mr. Lamkin, who is professor of music and
has been with the colleges since 1977, there will be two
student speakers from Claremont McKenna College,
Karen Manfield '94, sophomore, and Adam Hiller '93, junior.
Both of the students will discuss their work as members
of the ensemble preparing for this concert.
Please join us in an enlightening presentation of
Ludwig van Beethoven in his historical and present-day
context. Please fill out the enclosed reservation form
and return it to the Athenaeum so that you may enjoy a
special Viennese dinner prior to the presentation.
The Madrigal dinner is back! The Ninth Annual Madrigal Feast will return to
the Athenaeum featuring the Concert Choir of the Claremont Colleges and the
medieval cuisine of the MMC Athenaeum.
There are three dates still open: Wednesday, December 4; Tuesday, December
10; and Wednesday, December 11. Due to the popularity of the Madrigal you
are encouraged to sign up as soon as possible. Seating is on a first-come basis. The
CMC community-students, faculty, and staff-will get a preferential sign-up
period now through October 14. After that all other Claremont college
students may sign up.
Use the reservation coupon to sign up, and be sure to include your payment
and meal card number when turning in your reservation at the Athenaeum

Cook Athenaeum. We are the student fellows:
Scott Palmer, Elizabeth Pontefract, and Tyson Roberts.
The three of us are extremely excited about the
upcoming year. The speaker variety ranges from Christopher Columbus to Queen Ida's Cajun band and
covers areas from the Soviet Union to Southern California. It is an amazing prospect that we get to meet these
people and gain insight into their lives. We hope that all
students will take advantage of this opportunity. Our
focus this year is to facilitate student interaction with the
speakers and the faculty members who frequent the
From the outset, we want to stress that the Athenaeum is primarily for students. Our policy is to focus on
students' needs first. However, we need your help. As
some of you are already aware, there is a reception prior
to all dinners. This is a fantastic opportunity for
students to mingle with the speaker, faculty, administrators, and other students. If you are having any
problems getting a chance to talk with the speaker
during this time, please come up to any of us and we
will be more than happy to introduce you.
Another opportunity to meet the speaker on a more
informal basis is to sit at the head table. The conversations over dinner often provide an opportunity to
discuss the speaker's life, rather than the more formal
topic of the speech itself. You'd be amazed at some of
the anecdotes our guests have stored up. Sometimes,
speakers like to hear about life at CMC, so you can swap
college stories with them.
After the speeches we like to have about twenty to
thirty minutes of questions and answers. In the past,
many students seemed to be a bit tentative about raising
questions. We hope to see that change this year. If you
have time before or during dinner, try to think of
questions in advance. If you had the opportunity to chat
with the speaker at the reception or over dinner, after
the speech you could ask him or her to elaborate on
something you discussed.
In addition to the array of captivating speakers, the
Athenaeum offers the traditional Madrigal Feast in
December and the new Halloween Night of the
Macabre. For less formal gatherings, afternoon teas are
always a popular way to break up the afternoon. Also,
every Wednesday at noon there is an Open Forum
lunch where students and faculty gather to talk about
class, life, or current issues. The food is good and the
conversation is great, so think about dropping by.
All in all, we want you to feel as at home at the
Athenaeum as we have come to be over the last few
years. If you have any suggestions or concerns, or if you
would like to sit at the head table or even introduce a
speaker, call us or drop a note in our box in the
Athenaeum office. We look forward to meeting you
during the year.

Yep, it's more of a movie game, but the way they've integrated the controls is really cool. Incredible graphics, even better story, amazing amazing game.
Still cannot pull myself away from GTA V
COD Black Ops 2, love the gun game, one in the chamber, and kill confirmed. I hate campers SOB lol
For a good week straight all I thought about in life was GTA. But it can mess with you leaving a Titans game thinking, "I should just shoot at the first few cars so they will get out of the way and I can get home quickly. If the cops follow me, Ill just drive into some dirt and magically disappear."
The above post is satirical. Alex1939 does not confirm actually feeling homicidal leaving the Titans game. All above comments are for entertainment purposes only.
I'm hooked on GTA Online!
I was hearing that it has/had the potential to be one of the better games of this generation but it was just released at an awful time.
Oh I dunno...
Remember a game based on the movie that came out at the end of PS2 era...
It still did well even years after the PS3 was good.
TOTALLY different games, I've just always felt there are some amazing games that come out right at the end of a consoles life that are amongst the best it had to offer.
Just because it was released within a few weeks of GTA/next gen dropping soon doesn't mean it was a terrible time to launch the game, you stooped dummy. They're two entirely different games, and it has a large enough following that they could have released it the same day as GTA and been fine.
My next gen console is officially a ps3 btw. Soon as 4 drops and 3's take a mark down, I'm grabbing one up and ****ing GOING TO TOWN on that rpg collection on ps3. HeavyRainIMCOMINGFORYOUBABE

Sexuality does not suddenly emerge at secondary schools. Primary school age students live in a social context where they are exposed to messages about sexuality on a daily basis in the media through television, music, and advertising and from their peers. Sex is often joked about and discussed in derogatory or stereotypical ways. The correct information about human sexuality, including the positive aspects, is often kept hidden from children.
Generally children who receive a comprehensive sexuality education from an
early age:
- Understand and accept with confidence physical and emotional changes
- Feel positive about their bodies
- Appreciate individual difference
- Are more likely to make informed and responsible sexual decisions in later life
- Feel good about themselves and their gender
- Are capable of communicating about sexual matters
- Understand appropriate and inappropriate behaviour
- Are less vulnerable to exploitation and sexual abuse (Family Planning Queensland 1996).
Sexuality education can be confronting and challenging for teachers and currently there is very little professional development in the area of health and sexuality education, particularly for primary teachers. Current programs in primary schools are often taken by outside agencies in one off blocks. This approach does not provide any continuity in teaching and goes against research that suggests classroom teachers are the best people to teach sexuality education. Research also indicates that secondary school teachers find this a difficult area to teach. Graduating teachers need to be equipped with the knowledge, skills and confidence to integrate sexuality education content, issues and activities in health education programs in line with VELS and student wellbeing policies and practice. Teachers need skills to provide effective teaching and learning activities, assess resources, deal with potentially sensitive issues with students and allay possible parental concerns. This unit is taught in intensive mode and includes the following content:
- Setting the context: the current situation;
- Discourses in sexuality education;
- Conception and reproduction;
- Frameworks and policies;
- Gender and sexuality;
- Sexual diversity;
- Dealing with sensitive issues;
- Roles and responsibilities.

I don't have any specific dupes that mimic both the blue base and the accompanying black glitter pieces, but you might have a top coat that's similar in glitter content, so I'd recommend trying it with these potential shades (that are similar to the blue base color): Zoya Blu and NARS Kutki.

Perfect Powerful Putting
Great mental training for golf at your fingertips.You too can putt like a pro.
Putting is almost a game within the game of golf. Putt well and your handicap drops. It's the lynch-pin of golf, the difference between winning and losing.
From a purely mechanical point of view, it's the simplest part of the game. The trouble is, putting isn't so straightforward from the mind's point of view. It only takes one anxiety about your own ability for 'the yips' to set in and you're all over the place.
The mental skills contained on this cd build from the ones in the toolkit. They provide the icing on the cake, so to speak!
