ORNL Team Members: Travis Humble, Brian Williams, Toby Flynn, Laura Ann Anderson, Dave Richardson
CSMD, CSED, and MSSED researchers have developed a new technology for the technical verification of non-proliferation treaties. With support from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), the CSMD-led team has deployed quantum information concepts to detect when an intruder tampers with a sealed targets. This is a particular concern for treaty inspectors that need to confirm that the containment and surveillance of a special nuclear material has been uninterrupted. The novelty of the ORNL approach is to use quantum entanglement, a quantum mechanical feature that describes how two spatially disparate systems can exhibit seemingly strong correlations in their behaviors. The ORNL team has now leveraged those effects alongside the no-cloning principle to detect when an intruder is present, thus closing a vulnerability in existing tamper-indication technology.
Unlike classical correlations, which can be both observed and copied, the non-local quantum correlations used by the ORNL team can not be copied and any attempts at doing so destroys the entanglement. By monitoring for the presence of entanglement, the team was able to demonstrate a high probability of detection at a very low false alarm rate. In addition, recent development have laid the ground work for making these quantum verification measurements in real time using customized FPGA-based data collection systems.
Result from this work are featured in a special August issue of IEEE COMSOC Magazine on Quantum Communications. T. S. Humble "Quantum Security for the Physical Layer", IEEE COMSOC Magazine, vol. 51, page 56 (2013) http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6576339

TeenCentral.Net has been providing teens with solid, no-nonsense advice and resources since 1998, but the latest addition to the site may be its greatest achievement. This new section is a tough, realistic discussion of domestic and dating violence that makes no attempt to soften the damage kids sustain from this growing problem. "This is one of those topics that isn't discussed much among teens," says TeenCentral.Net Director Dr. Julius Licata. "There is shame associated with being abused or witnessing a parent or other family member suffering abuse that makes this a taboo subject." According to Licata, teens also feel that any abuse from family or boy or girlfriends is their fault and treatment they deserve. "This section of our website is designed to give teens information on domestic and dating abuse and teach them where to get help anywhere in the world," according to Licata.
Designed in a graphic novel format, this section is very gripping and stark in its presentation. It discusses the feelings teens have about abuse, simple examples of what constitutes domestic or dating abuse, where to turn for help and how to stand up to an abuser and find a safer place. "We tried to answer potential questions teens might ask about the subject," Licata explains, "and give them all of the information they need to contact a person or organization for support and extrication from the situation." He adds, "It is never easy to stand up to abusers, whether they are parents or the person you are dating, especially since there are typically self esteem issues for the abused teen. We hope that we can convince our members that they are valuable people who do not deserve abuse. We also want to instruct all teens to look for signs of abuse in family members or friends and offer their support."
Another feature of this new section is an interactive board game that allows teens to learn about domestic and dating abuse through a series of questions, which, if answered correctly, move your play piece around the board. If a teen does not do well in the game, she can re-read the information and try again until she wins. "We hope to change the lives of many teens who are suffering needlessly at the hands of adult or peer abusers and encourage friends to recognize the signs of abuse and offer assistance to a peers who are in abusive relationships," says Licata. The development of this new section was made possible by a grant from Verizon.
TeenCentral.Net is a free, anonymous website sponsored by KidsPeace, the organization that has been providing services to children and adolescents since 1882. TeenCentral.Net has always been a forum where teens could express their every thought and receive nonjudgmental answers to their most intimate questions. Master's level counselors read each posting before publishing and respond to every posting within 24 hours. The site contains postings from many of its 590,000 members, celebrity stories about overcoming problems in their teens, news aimed at teens, a section on weight awareness, a guide for quitting smoking and recommendations about books that appeal to teens. Hundreds of volunteers assist in the operation of this website, and the growing number of monthly hits speaks to the popularity of this site. Access the site at http://www.teencentral.net/ and learn about all of the features that appeal so to teens. The site also has a Facebook page that has a growing following as well.
KidsPeace electrician Al Barnes returned to work at the Orchard Hills Campus
in Orefield, PA, this week, and he was extremely happy to be back. In
July, Al had a terrible motorcycle accident on his way home from
work, and his life changed forever. Al was placed into an induced coma
to keep him from moving after a severe head injury that caused
significant swelling to his brain. It was a touch and go situation for
a while, and doctors were not sure if Al would survive. But Al's family
and KidsPeace colleagues had no doubt that Al would be back -- he has so much to
In addition to his regular duties at KidsPeace, Al is also
a pastor who has his own church in Allentown, PA, and who volunteers after work to
listen and give hope to the children at KidsPeace. He was sorely
missed while he was gone, and his flock and co-workers did not forget
him. In fact, they held a fundraiser to help defray his medical and
living expenses while he was recuperating. Al spent three weeks in the
hospital and another three weeks at a rehabilitation center before
going home for the long journey back to full strength. He had surgery again in October
to insert a plastic plate in his head to protect the injured area. He
went through months of physical and occupational therapy before being
pronounced ready to drive and return to work last week.
The 48 year old Barnes was overwhelmed by the happiness the KidsPeace staff showed when he returned. "People told me they were close to tears over seeing me," Al confides. "I can't get over how many people are so glad to see me!" It was no different at his church. After he left the rehabilitation center, Al went to a Friday night service and planned to stand to address the congregation for five minutes. Twenty minutes later, he stopped talking because he voice was going, but his energy felt limitless. Al's church is the Kingdom Roadhouse, where he preaches every Friday evening to visitors from all denominations and faiths. Many members are bikers who really relate to Al's biker persona. The children at KidsPeace are drawn to Al's calm and spiritual nature and turn to him for spiritual guidance. Al volunteers with the Spirituality Committee and participates in events such as Gospelfest.
When discussing his miraculous recovery, Al says that he "received a do-over from God, and God remade me into a better person." He says that his faith is stronger than ever, and that he he can hear God better than ever before. Now that he is running on all cylinders again, Al plans to visits victims of motorcycle accidents in the hospital and rehab centers to provide counseling and offer prayers. "I have a unique perspective now, and very few people could fill that space like I can," Al says with a smile.
A new year offers opportunities for new beginnings and resolutions to do things for ourselves that will make us happier, healthier, stronger and better able to deal with everyday issues. The experts at KidsPeace urge teens to log onto TeenCentral.Net and join this active community in writing about their concerns, learning how to stop some bad habits, receiving advice from trained counselors and offering support to other teens who have posted about the difficulties they are facing. TeenCentral.Net is free and totally anonymous, so teens can be open and honest and know that they cannot be identified.
With more than 490,000 members, TeenCentral.Net is very popular with teens from around the world. "No matter where a teen lives -- in cities, small towns, busy suburbs or other countries -- the problems are pretty much universal," says Dr. Julius Licata, director of TeenCentral.Net. Teens have questions or issues they feel they cannot discuss with their parents or friends, and TeenCentral.Net offers a safe environment to express themselves and receive advice from Master's level counselors." Licata helped create the site in 1998 and has been shepherding its growth ever since. He is extremely grateful to the volunteers who screen and answer the posts and ensure that no one can be identified by anyone who visits the site.
TeenCentral.Net is always adding new resources and interesting content to the site, including a news section that is relevant to teens, videos and stories about celebrities who experienced the same things members are experiencing, books of interest to teens and helpful information about weight awareness and how to stop smoking. "Right before Christmas, Amanda Seyfried, the popular actress from 'Mean Girls,' 'Mama Mia,' and 'Big Love,' visited TeenCentral.Net in Pennsylvania and filmed a short video that tells teens why she is a fan of TeenCentral.Net and has been since she was a young teen," Licata adds. "There are sports stars, musical groups and other celebrities who support us and take the time to tell their stories on our site."
There is also now a FaceBook page about TeenCentral.Net that keeps teens up to date on what is happening on the site, and new teens join every week. Although there is not a separate site for adults, parents can write for advice and receive private emails with the information they need or recommendations about where to go to find answers.
Teens post about family issues, boyfriend or girlfriend troubles, problems with friends, school difficulties, sexuality and concerns about friends who are need help. No subject is taboo, and counselors provide factual, non-judgmental answers to each post within 24 hours. Many teens have posted that the advice they received from TeenCentral.Net changed their lives, helped them out of bad situations and directed them to service providers in their areas that could help them with serious problems.
Licata encourages educators, parents, mental health services providers and counselors to guide teens to TeenCentral.Net so that they can "Log on and work it out," whatever their problem may be. For more information about the site or to order cards to distribute to teens, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 610-799-7912. "Make this a safe, less troubled year for the teens you know," Licata says.

I don't know what happen with your lupus anticoagulant after you re-did the test, but I wanted to tell you that a borderline lupus anticoagulant (real borderline, always stable in further labs) without any other clotting disorder was enough to cause (most probably) my hellp syndrome at 32 +2 during my first pregnancy and deliver an iugr baby. The good news is that Lovenox (Clexane 4000 in Italy), along with LDA, is working very well for me during this second pregnancy. I am now 37 + 1, having my c-section this Monday with very mild or no PE at all and an estimated normal though not big second daughter.

who takes it?
i say page in the 3rd.. tko.
lemme touch your feet
I think Rampage will be the one to take the title from Jones if they ever fight. Jones will not be able to muscle Rampage around like he has with everyone else and on top of that Rampage's boxing should be enough to give Jones fits in the stand-up department. One thing I did notice is that when ever Jones went for a highlight reel move against Shogun, Shogun ended up taking Jones' back. Now if that happens with Rampage, Jones is going to be a lot of trouble and probably add some points to his Southwest card.
I see Jones going for a spinning elbow, Rampage blocking and countering with a right to jaw. Rampage via KO in the 2nd.
Damn very tough fight for rampage, or anybody for that matter.
Rampage is going to have a very tough time dealing with jone's reach and excellent takedowns. But if page lands he will ko jones into tomorrow. Shogun is a better striker than rampage, but rampage has better boxing, hits hard as fuck and has a great chin.
What most of you dont understand, is when you are 6'4 and have the longest reach in MMA with the skills to back it up. It's very hard for anyone to handle.
Jones by TKO rd 3
I'm surprized Harlem is the only one to say Rampage fails on this one.
I see Pages failure to check kicks well to be a major problem. Once Page loses his wheels from kicks he will be a sitting duck and Jones would pick him apart. My biggest concern is does Page want to fight? The best Page has a good chance to beat Jones, but I don't foresee that Page coming out/ even taking the fight
Rampage would do everything in his power to avoid this particular fight.....word!
Lost SIG bet to Leucoethiops
Jones beats Page via GnP
Page on his back is like a fish out of water.
"...for he today who sheds his blood with me shall be my brother." William Shakespeare
"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it." Helen Keller
It'd be a good fight imo
Rampage looked in pretty good shape against Machida, and even though he didn't land that many clean punches, its Machida.
I could see Rampage stifling Jones' clinch game and lighting Bones up with punches and winning by tko, but at the same time Rampage isn't that fast on his feet and Jones could light him up with flashy moves and leg kicks/body kicks.

In early June 2012, Elkin High School's first Environmental Club met to break ground on the school garden behind the main building. Students and club advisers worked for nearly five hours to lay out the garden design, till the soil, add compost, and tear out weeds.
That morning marked the beginning of an effort to better understand the needs of the earth and how students can help to sustain our planet.
During an environmental assembly at the school in April of this year, Johanna DeGraffenreid, a guest speaker for the Alliance for Climate Education (ACE) presented a call to action to Elkin High School students, and they decided to form the Environmental Club. ACE acts as a partner for the club and sends information about leadership conferences and competitions with other schools across the state and country.
Environmental Club adviser and science teacher, Ruthann McComb said she believes the club is a great place for young people to begin developing an understanding of the challenges facing our environment while working with community organizations to make change happen.
"I care deeply about environmental issues; I enjoy working with students, and want to raise awareness about the environment among a greater audience than just inside my classroom," McComb said.
McComb added, "The club's main goal is to raise awareness about environmental issues, [to explore] what actions students can take to improve these issues, to encourage students who wish to study these topics after high school, and to build partnerships between EHS and community organizations."
The club currently has approximately 20 members that meet one Friday each month at 7:30 a.m. in McComb's classroom.
In October, advisers McComb and April Swarey helped club members plant a sallet garden and put up recycling posters around the school. The group hopes to plant a vegetable and herb garden in the spring which would supply produce for Elkin High School's Foods classes, school cafeteria, and, eventually, the Second Harvest food program.
The area's large deer population is a threat to that plan, but club advisers have been applying for grant money to put up a deer fence around the garden. So far, no grant monies have been awarded to the club, and the future of the garden is in jeopardy. "There are few vegetables that deer won't eat, so it will be nearly impossible to harvest a great deal until we get a fence in place," Swarey commented.
When asked if the club needed any community support, McComb said, "We are interested in partnering with local organizations such as the Yadkin Riverkeeper, Town of Elkin Recreation and Parks and Public Works departments, and Trout Unlimited for specialized conservation activities. We would also like to work with the Elkin Garden Club and Surry County Cooperative Extension for our school garden project."
McComb added, "We are in [particular] need of money and materials for establishing our school garden and for a fence around it."
She invited community members to contact her at 336-835-3858 if they would like to suggest or assist with local conservation projects.
The group would especially like to partner with "individuals or groups with knowledge about energy savings, erosion-control landscaping, conservation projects, sustainable gardens, renewable energy sources, and waste reduction."

Now as the Open Beta just ended a while, I thought I'd take my time to write.. well, lets say a little "review" of my experience in ArcheAge so far.
Now, right og the bat, I want to emphasize that I only made it to level 26 i the beta, so I dont really have much to any experience when it comes to the end game pvp and sandbox elements which really is what makes ArcheAge, but i'll share with you, what my guildmates have shared with me, but I'll focus mostly on what I personally have experienced in ArcheAge.
Now let's start with Character Creation, as that was the first thing I got to experience after the log in screen and server selection.
(oh yeah, the log in screen is beautiful btw ;P)
Now the Character Creation has it's strong points and a few weak points aswell, but let's start with the goodies whall we?
First off, the Character Creation ha a lot of choices and sliders. Which is a very good thing for people like me who can customize their character for hours. We got:
On the other side you can choose from pre created faces, then eyes, nose, mouth, and pre-created head morphs.
After that you can go into "advanced mode" and change the head morph, eyes, nose and lips to your liking with sliders.
It's fairly easy to create a unique looking character and I have yet to run into someone who looks just like me.
Then we got the weaker points.
The Hair selection is quite good enough, but I would have liked to see a couple more to be honest.
The face paints looks really over the top, and I've actually yet to see a character in game yto use any of them.
There is no body sliders. and no selection to choose from, everybody got the same body as the rest of the same race and sex does. The best comparison I can think about is the Tera Character Customization. Lots of head/face options, no body options.
The last thing is just a personal preferences, and it is that since ArcheAge is semi Anime inspired, it's quite easy to make a Anime face. Even though you choose to create a fairly realistic character, you will see some Anime-ish characters running around. And while it's not really a big problem for me, seeing as I am an Anime fan and it's a korean game, this might be a turnoff for others.
For those who have'nt seen the Character Creation here is a link.
Okay then, off to the starter experience.
I want to start with saying that the graphics and aesthetics are truly Gorgeous in Arche Age, while the graphics aren't as pretty as they are in the trailers XLGames have released, the game is still beautiful. The only problem I had was that the graphics were much better in the Character Creation screen than in the actual game, so I had to remake my character numerous of times before I was satisfied with how she looked in game.
(But to be fair, I am a real perfectionist when it comes to how my character looks, and I usually do spend more than enough time remaking my characters in any game).
Nuian Castle
Harihan City
I started of as a Ferre (a cat person) played until about level 11, got kind of bored with the looks of my character, started a Nuian (a human) and played it to level 9, before I got bored again and created a Hariharan (mini humans, more eastern influenced) and was more or less satisfied with that one and played it to the end of the beta.
My Huriharan girl Kazumi. Hard to believe that goes as a plate armor, hm?
I am just going to talk a little bit about the races and my take on them.
there are 4 races divided by two factions,
There were rumors about there being 8 races at launch,
But as we haven't seen or heared anything about them during the open beta it's fairly sure they will not make in to the game to Launch. Read more about the races here.
While personally, I find 4 races to be just a little weak, they all have their own story trough the story quest (their own mini cinematics here and there) and they all have their own starting areas, as their own mounts. The racial skills are not giving any of the races any serious benefits over the others, they are more practical, f.ex; Ferres can climb faster and Hariharan can harvest faster, etc. While the races aren't that unique (with an exception of the Ferres IMO) they still do look good and fit the game.
When it comes to classes ArcheAge really shines bright, there are a total of 10 different skill trees, and you'll be able to choose 3 of them. While the game does recomand trees for you, you'll be able to choose which ever playstyle you like.
Take my "class" for example, My first tree was melee dps, my second tree (I got at level 5) was a more assassin/rouge style tree. Last (at level 10) I choose the healing tree, which turned out to be one hell of a combination. You'll get a skillpoint every second or third level, and at level 5 and 10 you'll get 3 (I believe this to be correct, but don't quote me on this though). Same goes to your armour and weapon choice, you can use any type of armor and weapon to any of the skill strees.
Check out an English Skill Calculator here, originally created by a russian fansite, but translated by Termy on ArcheAge Source Website.
Okay sorry about that spin off, and back to the game.
Trough level 1 to 25 the game have been really on rails, or a Quest Hub or whatever you'd like to call it. Small Zones, (no loading between them though), go from one quest giver 'til another until you've finished the zone and then on to the next one to do the same. I've been told by guildmates that the game is pretty much this until cap level, but I don't have any experience after level 25 so I can't really state that as a fact. You can however go around harvesting and earn XP through that, but it's really slow that way.
The Battle system is not one of ArcheAge strongest points, while I don't really mind the basic TAB 1+2+3 battle system, it can get boring, especially with the enormous amount of kill x amount of this and that quests. While you have access to a wide viariety of skills, it's still TAB based combat. And as ArcheAge doesnt have any evade system like Guild Wars 2, it's pretty much a button masher. But you can move around while attacking. the Character does not stop to swing his or her sword or to shoot an arrow. You only have to stand still to cast spells that requires a casting bar to fill up.
Gathering in ArcheAge is as gathering should be, you can gather special plants, cut down trees (not every tree though) and mine rocks for ores, Crafting on the other hand I didn't reallt get into. But some guildmates told me it wasn't anything spesial, and quite simple.
Mounts and traveling is something ArcheAge has done right in my opinion, while there's not a wide selection of different mounts,
(the racial mounts, horses and Yata's)
(My Character and her Yata)
there are plenty of other ways to get from point A to point B. There are wagons driven by an npc you can jump on aboard, there are the kite wing-thingies which can carry you from high places (a really fun way of traveling if you ask me, think a little more complex system of the Aion gliding), and then we got boats. Boats are a big thing in ArcheAge, there are boats from the little rowing boat you get for free from a quest, to really huge ships.
Trying out one of the bigger ships, I've heard you need to actually have lots of players maneuvering it.
Biggest boat I've seen so far in ArcheAge, not sure if it's even for sale, but it's got a music player and two jacuzzi's on top ;P
Every now and then you'll run into a portal in ArcheAge, and if you go through it you'll end up at the shopping market where you can buy everything sandbox related in ArcheAge. From houses, to castle walls, to siege weapons and boats. You'll buy this with a special currency. The horses and boats you'll get to buy with coins you'll get through the story quest, and the houses and siege weapons and such was bought with a currency I haven't gotten to yet, but it was overwhelming, looking at the houses and boats. It was at this point, when I got to this place, I knew that ArcheAge had so much more to offer than I originally thought.
As of PVP I've allready mentioned I haven't really gotten around to it yet, the closest thing I've encountered was when I started playing on my Nuian and was level 3 I believe, I suddenly met a level 40 Ferre. I didnt know if he could attack me or not, this being the starter area, but I wasn't about to find out so long story short, I ran around the place for 15 minutes, going from one speed buff station to another, with him riding after me yelling in korean. He gave up eventually... :P I've also done a few duels, but with the delay, I got raped hard....
Anyways, I feel like this "review" is getting all too long allready, and I'm sure those of you whom actually have read the whole thing can agree, so I'll just end it with the experience I had today, an hour before the open beta ended.
I ran around doing some quests when suddenly someone in the guild chat asked if any of us were crazy enough to go along and face the Kraken before the beta enden. Brave as I am, I accepted the challenge and met with one of the other guys who decided to tag along. His name was in korean so I called him Captain as he was the boats owner.
For almost an hour we sailed away to the middle of the map, passed cities and shores, and I tell you, it felt like only minutes. This is one of the feelings I haven't had in an MMO in more than 7 years, The feeling of excitement and exploration, watching the beautiful graphics as the sun goes down over the horizon, meeting the guildmates on their boats and, together, sail to what was (for me) unknown. I had a blast, and I can't explain how rare this is for me, having a good time exploring an MMO.
Here are some screenshots of our adventure:
Sailing past a City Meeting up with the other Guildmates
Sun going down :) Getting Close to the middle of the map Kraken 0.o
1 hit D: Dead End.
It's been quite the ride, and it's sad to see the Open Beta end.. But if I don't get to play anymore (due to not being my account), I'll just have to wait for the western release like so many others :)
Last words about ArcheAge.
While I dont think this is the revolutionary title some want it to be, it's still a very good game. it might be a little casual (guildmate's words, not mine), but it does bring back the satisfaction of exploring, I haven't seen in a MMO for a long long time.
I think a lot of people are going to fall in love with this game if they give it a chance, and if it's not for them, so be it.
I am looking forward to playing with all of you who are just as excited about the western release as I am.
Thanks for taking your time reading this, I'm sorry it's so long, and I am sorry if you feel it was time wasted. I apologize in advance for any typoes and for my not-so-exceptional English, but I tried to make it as readable as possible.
If you have any questions about ArcheAge, I'll do my best to try to answer them. Again, thanks for your time.

We know Archeage is a sandpark, so it's themepark on rails until you get to the final continent that is player run/made by guilds etc so this doesn't surprise me too much.
Very good review and I look forward to some people providing reviews of the actual final island character content.
I'm glad you found it to an acceptable read :)
I'd also like to find out more about the third island, but as it wasn't accessible in the open beta, it's quite hard to get any "hands on" info about it. But if I get to keep playing, and get to level 40, I'll write a follow up about the third island :)

A good first impressions review.
So, are the quests varied enough or are they terrible like in TERA?
They are somewhat varied, and nearly not as bad as TERA imo. Mostly though, they are "pick up this", "kill that", and "use this item on that mob".
I am glad you found it readable :)

Great review. Thank you for the time to write it and for the beautiful screenshots. I learned a lot. It was not at all how I expected, at least the portions you got to experience and describe.
I didn't expect combat to be static tab-targeted and I didn't expect it to be so on rails past the tutorial/starter area. I also didn't expect ships to be so diverse.
From your review it doesn't sound as deep as I was expecting, but also your review was way more positive than I had expected early reviews to be. I'm still keeping my eye on the game.

So, on rails quest grinder with tab target 1+2+3+4 combat. Move along ppl nothing to see.... I predict game will fail worse than Aion in west or TERA....
Pretty much what i expected from looking few livestreams.

Why oh why do all the "sandbox" activities have to be reserved for end-game?
This saddens me. Will have to wait and see for myself in a hopefully English open beta at some point, but man...
How hard is it for these devs to understand that most people are tired of grinding boring stuff to get to the good stuff?
Themebox / Sandpark is a valid idea - but it's not "themepark leveling than sandbox end game" that we want - it's a fusion from the very start with NO FINISH.
I've probably been lurking for way, way too long.
Thanks Torvaldr, for your kind words :)
I am happy to share what I've experienced with the community and it makes me happy when people find my stuff worthwhile.
While it's not exactly what I expected it to be either, it is by far better than I feared it to be.
Also, keep in mind that this is only an low level experience, and the true joy of ArcheAge starts at level 40, (or so I've been told), and that level 1 - 40 is basicly a long tutorial for you to learn the game and to prepare you for what to come at the end game.
I've also didnt get to any of the instances (dungeons if you like).
And I can tell all of you who hates easy solo mmos, already at level 25 I found myself having trouble and had to team up with random koreans to get through some of the quests, so this isn't a typical solo MMO, and I've been told that the end game isn't even posible to solo. Several Guildmates have said that you literally have to do stuff with your friends and Guild to even survive at level 40.

I don't Forum PVP. If you feel I've attacked you, it was probably by accident.
Looks incredibly polished. Great info, thanks!
I give up.

We don't NEED or want 40 levels of tutorial.
I don't even want 5.
If a game doesn't capture my interest in the first couple of hours, chances are it won't be any better at the mythical magical "end game."
If AA truly does have 40 or so levels of mostly solo quest hub grinding as you and others have attested to - it will fail horribly in the west.
Why waste all that time and effort developing such useless content for a game?
I've probably been lurking for way, way too long.

My guess is that it's hard to try to please two different type of playerbases, and therefore they chose keep the themepark in the beginning, and the Sand box elements at the end to keep player longevity, as themeparks usually fail to keep players playing their games when they can access the end game.
But for what it's worth, I do agree with wanting more of the sand box elements earlier than at the end game.
I also want to say that I can not promise that I accessed everything to do at the levels 1-25, as the game is in korean it's hard to wander of the "rail" and figure out if there is anything else to do. And my korean is practically non-existent,

This is disappointing to me, luckily my hype is in check, or it might be worse, I will be waiting to see reviews from people in sandbox/endgame before making any purchase. I will not purchase a themepark on the promise of a sandbox later.

sooooooo it's maybe more of a sandPARK. And the combat thing was a big letdown.

the max lvl cap of archeage is 50, it was limited to 40 for the obt.
once again, don't judge a game by its beta, wait for the retail version.
As stated earlier, if I get to keep playing and make it to level 40 and the end game / sandbox elements, I will write a follow up and hopefully that will be a more positive review.
I want to emphasize that many I've talked to are big time sand box fans, and while disappointed that the game is on rails pretty much the entire leveling prosess, they still do love ArcheAge for what it is.
I do wish that the game could have been more of a sandbox from the beginning, but the game has yet to turn me off.
I dont know if it got through from the first impression / early review, but my experience with ArcheAge has been more positive than disappointing.

Delfina Italian Grid Plates Wall Art 3 3
Very pretty I like this piece. I had my eye on this piece for a long time and finally one day decided to get it. Fits great on the wall in my dining room and I've gotten compliments on it. October 19, 2011
Gorgeous This was even prettier in person than I expected. I was very pleased with the purchase. January 3, 2011
Beautiful but Flawed The plates are beautiful and I get many compliments on it. One of the plates was damaged and looks like someone tried to cover it with the wrong color of paint. That is very disappointing. It is too difficult of a process to send it back so I will try to match up the paint colors and repaint it one day. Other then that they really are beautiful and were easy to hang. January 1, 2011

Those of us who look at bicycling as more than a kid's endeavor, 50mg Cafergot, 750mg Cafergot, and more than a sport for super athletes, want to tell everybody about it, Cafergot usa. 200mg Cafergot, [caption id="attachment_634" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="The Diana Bijou"][/caption]
About a year and a half ago, I was coming up on my mom's birthday, Cafergot paypal. I planned to see her the week before at a yearly family gathering in Yosemite, and I'd not yet figured out what to give her, Discount Cafergot. Cafergot mexico, My mom is a self-proclaimed "Book Woman," a wild-haired, Cafergot overseas, Cafergot canada, imaginative, intelligent, Cafergot ebay, 1000mg Cafergot, often spacey jewel of a person who I'm extremely fond of. She saw my passion for cycling grow and was proud of what I was doing, Cafergot craiglist. 10mg Cafergot, So when my partner found a classic white ladies bike on Craigslist branded "Diana," the name of my mother, 40mg Cafergot, 150mg Cafergot, I knew I had found her gift.
I still remember pulling the bike out and showing it to her, Cafergot coupon. Discount Cafergot, "This is one of those gifts I will always remember," she told me, and I believe she will. 30mg Cafergot, I later convinced my dad to get a bike and now the two of them bring their bikes along when they hit the road with their tiny teardrop trailer, beach-hopping around in their semi-retirement years, 100mg Cafergot. Cafergot india, I put out a call on the ZPG facebook page for people to share their own stories. Quite a few great ones came in, Cafergot japan, Cafergot us, like Joaquin of WeKeepGoing, whose 82 year old father still rides the bike Jo got him, 20mg Cafergot, 500mg Cafergot, and Matthew, who tweaked, polished, and fine tuned his dad's old bike, putting in upwards of 100 miles of test riding until the bike just sung. I was reminded that we're in the company of some pretty amazing people.
Whether you just use your bike to get to work or you're a hardened road cyclist, you are making an impact with those around you, Discount Cafergot. No matter how dubious they are of you when you walk into the workplace decked out in your winter regalia (seriously guys, put another sock over the top if you're going to wear grocery bags on your feet), there is a nagging realization that you're onto something--that being climate controlled, cruise controlled, and bluetooth ready isn't really as rewarding as the millions in advertising would have us believe.
Bicycling like we do isn't for everyone, and we'll end up disappointed if we expect the whole world to join us. But there are a lot out there just waiting to be awakened to the efficiency, comfort, and sheer pleasure awaiting them on the other side of two pedals. Let's keep modeling it for them, shall we. We're making an impact.

Comments about NIKE Boys' Integrated Football Pants:
My 10-year-old plays tackle football. We bought these mostly because of the Nike name, though they fit in an odd way. My son looked like his butt extended about halfway up his back in these! However, I just wanted good quality pants to keep him as safe as possible.
The second time I washed the pants as directed, one of the hip pads ripped right through the fabric! I returned them to the store and bought Wilson. We have not had a single problem with the Wilson, AND they LOOK much better on my son!

Comments about NIKE Boys' Integrated Football Pants:
This is my nine year old's first year for tackle so I have nothing to compare it with but I found the fabric sheer and not very strong. You could see the air holes on the padding through the fabric and the stitching came undone near the knee. He also developed holes in both knees which I've sewn closed but the fabric is thin so it just develops a hole along where it was sewn.

text: My son has finally graduated from his Rossi.357 single shot rifle to something a little bigger for hunting. I was out shooting some hand loads through my ultralight ar and he wanted to try it. I was a little hesitant but let him try. His first group (eotec exps and magnifier) was at 77yards all in 3/4 of an inch center to center. His second group was 1 3/4 of an inch. I had been reading up on the 300 AAC Blackout. Basically a .221 necked up for .30 cal and when loaded to supersonic velocities it is a match for 30-30 and 7.62x39. Soooo i ordered a green mountain .308 gatlin barrel for 40 bucks, chopped the chamber, reprofiled and built him one. At first he wanted a m4 handguard but then wanted me to make him a free float tube. Knurled. With ball nose grooves. Not vented. Oh and make the grooves SPIRAL. I spent a few hours in the shop and here she is. I still need to bead blast and camo it, plus that is a Neighbors lower that was handy for the pic (WARNING that is a moores machine shop lpwer DO NOT buy one)

Ian Birky was described by one nominator as a "…thoughtful…and challenging colleague, a great blessing in my life."
Ian Birky, director of Counseling and Psychological Services for 22 years, was recently honored by his colleagues across the country with a prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award.
Birky was given the award by the Association for University and College Counseling Center Directors (AUCCCD), which represents more than 700 institutions worldwide and works with college and university counseling centers to uphold professional principles and promote awareness of student mental health issues.
Nominators praised Birky as a "consummate professional, a creative and visionary thinker," with a "rich mix of passion and sensitivity." One described him as "one of the most creative, insightful, intelligent and thought-provoking people I have met." Another said, "Birky is a kind, thoughtful, gentle, competitive, intelligent and challenging colleague—a great blessing in my life."
Others praised his commitment to providing the highest quality counseling center for students and for "accomplishing all this with a relaxed and unassuming style."
Birky's Lehigh colleagues cite his dedication, professionalism and commitment to helping students realize their full potential.
"I cannot imagine a better university counseling center director," said Vice Provost for Student Affairs John Smeaton. "Ian is an outstanding therapist, educator, scholar and colleague. Lehigh and our students have been blessed by his compassion, intellect, commitment, energy and creativity. It has been my privilege and good fortune to work side by side with Ian for more than two decades."
Giving students "the best possible support"
Dean of Students Sharon Basso also noted the seamless partnership her office enjoys with the Counseling Center, largely due to Birky's "collaborative spirit, insightful leadership, patient style and cutting-edge approaches to mental health in a college setting."
"That synergy," said Basso, "affords us the opportunity to provide the best possible assessment and support to Lehigh students and to help them remain successful in their academic and interpersonal domains. I can't imagine anyone being more deserving of this recognition by his professional peers, and I'm proud to call Ian my colleague."
Birky earned a bachelor's degree in natural science from Goshen College and studied theology in graduate school, but was drawn to clinical psychology. He earned a Ph.D. in clinical psychology and sport psychology from Oklahoma State University.
After completing an internship at the Yale University School of Medicine, Birky went to Colgate University, where he taught courses and conducted research in sport psychology and worked with athletic teams and athletes in addition to administering the Counseling Center.
Birky came to Lehigh in 1990. He directs the counseling center and teaches as an associate professor in the counseling psychology doctoral program and psychology department. He recently received a federal grant to continue his research in sport psychology and performance enhancement. In addition to working as a sport psychologist with Lehigh's varsity sports teams and athletes, he is a licensed psychologist in New York and Pennsylvania with expertise in group psychotherapy, peak performance and sport psychology.
His research interests include psychodynamic and existential psychotherapy, and group and sports psychology. Teaching interests include sport psychology, crisis counseling and theories and practices of individual and group psychotherapy.
His many awards and honors include the Hillman Award, which recognizes exempt staff members who exemplify the highest level of achievement at Lehigh.

(WASHINGTON DC) - If Mitt Romney is elected president, the American flag itself may actually be restricted from flying in the United States. That word comes from employees losing their jobs in Freeport, Illinois.
The Presidential Candidate holds major stock in a company called Sensata. The company recently made factory officials take down the American flag when they were forced to train their Chinese replacement workers, according to Tom Gaulrapp, with the United Steelworkers Union.
Right now in Freeport, Illinois, some 170 workers at an auto sensor plant are sleeping in tents to protest Bain-owned Sensata Technologys decision to ship their jobs to China.
Romney claims he knows nothing about this.
But the New York Times explains: [Mitt Romney] owns about $8 million worth of Bain funds that hold 51 percent of Sensatas shares. If Sensata saves money by closing the Freeport plant, that could add money to Mr. Romneys trust accounts, now or after the election.
This is taking place as Mitt Romney tries to convince people to believe that he doesnt know about Bain's shipping American jobs overseas.
He is trying to place distance between himself and Bain Capital, a pioneer of outsourcing where Romney made a fortune as CEO.
If they insist on campaigning from the pulpit, strip their tax exemptions!
Somebody is shooting a lot of blanks. LOL!!
There isn't anything wrong with America that liberal ideology, properly applied by government experts, can't make worse.

Announcement - Amendment Process Announcement for H.R. 2117
February 17, 2012
Dear Colleague:
February 17, 2012
Dear Colleague:
UPDATED on 11/01/2011 at 9:37 AM
The Committee on Rules meeting scheduled for today, Wednesday, February 15, 2012 at 2:00 PM in H-313 The Capitol to complete consideration of the following measure has been POSTPONED subject to the call of the chair:
February 8, 2012
Dear Colleague:
The Committee on Rules may meet the week of February 13th to grant a rule that could limit the amendment process for floor consideration of H.R. 7, the American Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Act of 2012.
Today, the House takes up the FY 2012 Homeland Security Appropriations bill under an open rule. That means any member can offer any germane amendment to the bill on the House floor. While this may seem like nothing more than "inside baseball," it is in fact a fundamentally important issue that directly effects the substantive outcomes of the legislative process. This open rule will be the first one considered by the House in nearly four years and it will not be the last. This open rule launches the entire FY 2012 appropriations season with a spirit of openness and accountability.
The Budget Control Act of 2011 represents a chance to change the direction of the spending debate in Washington. First, it cuts and caps spending, saving approximately $1.2 trillion over 10 years (subject to CBO confirmation). It also creates a Joint Select Congressional Committee tasked with finding real savings and creating a clear path for its work product to actually receive an up or down vote, so we can begin the process of paying down our debt.

The following is the statement of Mississippi State University Director of University Relations Sid Salter:
Mississippi State University was the target of a cyber-attack on one of the university's servers, but a preliminary investigation indicates that no secure data was lost in the incident.
At approximately 8 a.m. Wednesday (Jan. 9), the website Hack Read News posted that information related to 535 Mississippi State University individuals had been compromised by a hacker. A Brazilian hacker claimed credit for the incident.
MSU President Mark Keenum was advised of the incident and directed MSU's chief information officer to launch an investigation into the claim and make a subsequent impact assessment.
MSU Chief Information Officer Mike Rackley said that a preliminary university investigation revealed that no data of a secure nature--Social Security numbers, credit card information, health information or grades--was compromised. Rackley said most of the information obtained by the hacker is available from existing public domain print or digital university directories.
"This represents only one of hundreds of servers in the MSU system," said Rackley. "In response to incidents like this one and the increasing number of Internet-enabled computer attacks, Mississippi State continually modifies its systems and practices to enhance the security of sensitive information."
As a precaution, MSU's Information Technology Services is notifying and working with the users who may be affected to have them change their account passwords.
"Cyber-crimes and 'hacking' plague Fortune 500 companies, the federal government, and unfortunately is a reality in higher education as well," said Keenum. "We're very sensitive to the concerns such attacks generate, but at this point we believe that the secure data of these individuals remains safe."
