Binding of Isaac is a roguelike-lite game. Roguelikes are like mini life-sims that are just as anal retentive as a flight sim, or any actual simulator. You have to constantly eat food, sleep, have like 3 dozen stats, etc, etc. It's super niche.
Okay, so you mentioned Super Meat Boy, which is basically a game that demands you to perfect a routine. And then you have Faster Than Light, which is a game with RNG elements. Which brings me to another question: is the format of a game what determines its challenge? Like are games more challenging when they have strict formats or loose formats with a solid underlying system?
I guess the best example would be comparing the classic Ninja Gaiden to the current Ninja Gaiden. Classic Gaiden had you memorizing levels with very few options otherwise. Everyone runs levels in classic Gaiden almost exactly the same, because the game demands that. The format is very strict, and that's what made it "difficult".
Current Gaiden gives you tons of resources and options, but still manages to be difficult by throwing lots of intelligent, sometimes unpredictable enemies at you. It has a solid combat system underneath but, to an inexperienced player, is difficult because they either use their resources poorly or don't know which resources to use. There are like dozens of ways to clear any one MOB, and it comes down to knowing which variables to manipulate. It's just that the game doesn't give you strict guidelines to follow, so it requires a deeper understanding of the combat system, which makes it "difficult".
So which is, in your experience, more difficult: having too few options or facing too many variables?

Preplanning paid off for City of Livingston
Polk County Enterprise - September 2008
LIVINGSTON – Livingston City Council held an emergency meeting Wednesday morning to end the curfew that was put in place after Hurricane Ike ravaged the area. City Manager Marilyn Sutton and Mayor Clarke Evans decided that with power steadily being restored to the city there was no need to continue the curfew, which was originally implemented to avoid having drivers on the road with no traffic lights and to curb looting of homes and businesses whose security systems were compromised by the power failure. Permit fees for electrical and building work are being waived if the work to be done is stormrelated. City residents who need work done must still obtain a permit for the work and have that work inspected prior to electrical service being restored. Any Texaslicensed Master Electrician can perform electrical work within city limits.
During the impromptu meeting, city leaders discussed the effects of the hurricane on the city with Mayor Evans recapping the city's response times following the storm. The bulk of the city's employees weathered the storm in various city buildings, from city hall to the electrical warehouse, on standby throughout the night. City workers received notification around 11:30 a.m. that wind speeds were down to 40 miles per hour. Within the hour teams comprised of city electric, fire, police and street department workers were on the streets making damage assessments within their individual areas of expertise, formulating a comprehensive overview of the work ahead of them.
The city electrical department focused on distribution channels, having lost complete transmission to the substation from Entergy around 5:45 a.m., although some areas of the city lost power earlier. As part of the city's preplanning for hurricane season, a contract was in place with CPS Energy out of San Antonio and by Monday afternoon 24 men and 10 bucket trucks had arrived to assist city workers. The city received word Tuesday morning from Entergy that the city's substation was re-energized and that 100 percent of the town could be brought back on line as the city made repairs to its infrastructure.
The city has two substations, one on Old Woodville Road and another along the U.S. 59 Bypass, referred to as the Ogletree substation. Circuit No. 213, powered by the Ogletree substation, was the first to have power restored, since it serves areas of special needs including nursing homes and medical facilities along the bypass to the north and west on U.S. 190 to Long King Creek. It was quickly followed by restoration of power to the areas along U.S. 59 south including HEB, Lowe's, Brookshire Bros and the wastewater treatment plant. Bringing power back to the wastewater plant was vital to the conservation of diesel fuel for other tasks as the generator at that site was consuming 113 gallons of fuel per day. Circuits 211 and 212 were energized shortly after 5 p.m. restoring power to the city's traffic lights, the downtown area and some residences.
Crews then moved to the northeast side of town and restored as many circuits as possible before dark, although Old Israel Road was left without power at the end of the day. All told, six circuits had some level of power restored – four completely and one partially – within the 12 hours worked by electrical crews on Tuesday. The southern circuit was the city's goal for Wednesday, with crews confident that the bulk of power could be restored to those residents by day's end. The hospital is served by Sam Houston Electric Cooperative rather than the city. Although SHECO was ready to restore power to the hospital on Tuesday, a delayed electrical contractor out of Lufkin prevented the facility from converting back to grid power from generator power.
There were reports that Wal-Mart faced a similar problem with its generators but confirmation of that was unavailable at press time. City Manager Sutton said that one of the greatest assets at the city's disposal was the ability of its employees to change hats and work in different capacities as necessary. For example, Main Street Director Bob Ziegler is currently serving as a mechanic. Street Department Superintendent Hec Long had reported that his entire crew was working around the clock rather than breaking up the crew into smaller, less efficient teams – to their credit, the street department had all streets passable by the end of the day. Several of the city's buildings received damage during the storm. City hall received roof damage and will most likely need a new roof. The Main Street office was one of the most severely damaged buildings with extensive water damage and its operations will have to be relocated until repairs are made. The Trade Days office at Pedigo Park also received significant wind damage. The privacy fencing around fire station No. 2 was obliterated.
The fence was put in place recently as the first stage of construction of a city fueling station. Also damaged was the new low-band AM radio transmission equipment installed at the station the week before the storm. Mayor Evans and City Manager Sutton were both complementary of city employees and their dedication before, during and after the hurricane. "Employees were working even though they knew their homes had been damaged," said Evans. Sutton said the improvement in response times and overall support since Hurricane Rita three years ago has been tremendous. "Most importantly, we appreciate the citizens of Livingston for their cooperation and understanding during this time. We are extremely proud of the efforts our residents have made to help one another and our crews."

(Jan 27, 2010) On December 31, 2009, the Government of the Russian Federation issued two regulations which extend the list of narcotic and psychotropic substances and establish a new procedure for their storage and preservation. (Regulations of the Russian Federation Government No. Nos. 1148 & 1186 of Dec. 31, 2009, in force since Jan. 22, 2010, [in Russian], Rossiiskaia Gazeta, Jan. 14, 2010, No. 4, at 19 &Jan. 26, 2010, No. 14, at 12 (official publication).
These regulations calls for additional attention of law enforcers to the so-called "smoking mixtures" and add leaves of sage, flowers and leaves of blue lotus, and seeds of the Hawaiian rose to the list of plants whose cultivation and distribution is prohibited. Following these regulations, only organizations that are licensed to work with controlled substances will be allowed to keep them.
The regulations establish new requirements for storage facilities, which have to be insulated and separated from other commercial or industrial areas. Special equipment to be installed in such storage rooms and maximum reserve volumes are defined by the regulation. Security and equipment requirements, as well as storage conditions, are divided into four categories, depending on the type of substances involved and their public danger. Substances registered as medicines or used for pharmaceutical purposes are exempt from these Regulations, because they are covered by norms of the Health Protection Ministry. Substances intended for animal use are regulated by the Agriculture Ministry. (Commentaries of the Garant legal database [in Russian], http://www.garant.ru/news/227683/ (last visited Jan. 22, 2010).)
According to the Russian drug police chief, in 2009 more than 100,000 pounds of illegal drugs were confiscated by police.

Chrysler is discontinuing its Dodge Avenger sedan, a decision that could cost it thousands of buyers. / Chrysler/Associated Press
Chrysler is discontinuing it 200 convertible, which puts pressure on its remaining models to make up sales. / Chrysler
The decision to discontinue the Chrysler 200 convertible and Dodge Avenger sedan could cost Chrysler thousands of buyers this year.
It will put more pressure on dealers to sell more Dodge Darts, the compact that has fallen short of expectations ever since it was launched nearly two years ago.
While the redesigned Chrysler 200 promises to be a vast improvement over the one it replaces this spring, a number of convertible enthusiasts may be disappointed.
The decision also leaves the Chrysler brand with just three vehicles: the 200, the full-size 300 and the Town & Country minivan.
We know the convertible is going away and that at the end of the day, for the Chrysler brand to be relevant, its going to have to be more than three products, Chrysler brand CEO Al Gardner said in a recent interview.
Production of the Chrysler 200 ended last October, while workers at the Sterling Heights assembly plant rolled the last Avenger off the line a few weeks ago, according to a Chrysler spokeswoman.
Chrysler said it decided against developing a new 200 convertible because the cost and complexity was not a good investment in the face of lackluster demand for convertibles in the U.S.
Stephanie Brinley, senior analyst for IHS Automotive, said convertible sales fell sharply from 196,000 in 2005 to 110,000 in 2009. Since then theyve rebounded modestly to 143,000 in 2013.
So, the condition of the economy really makes people rethink whether or not they would need something like that, Brinley said.
Phasing out the 200 convertible is the end of an era for the Auburn Hills automaker, which was known for offering affordable convertibles for decades.
Its one of the products that they have had that almost nobody else had, said Free Press auto critic Mark Phelan. I would be surprised if it is gone forever.
The decision to eliminate the Avenger, which has shared the same structure as the 200, reflects CEO Sergio Marchionnes strategy to have fewer models that compete directly with each other in dealer showrooms.
Chrysler is hoping the Dart will attract buyers as they trade in their Avengers. However, the decision leaves Dodge without a midsize sedan.
In 2013, Chrysler sold 83,388 Darts and 93,842 Avengers.
All of that volume is not going to just transfer to the Dart, Brinley said. It is going to (be) difficult for Dodge to make some of their sales targets because they are reducing their model count.

School of Troubles: Students, parents recall Carolina Springs Academy
Ryan works at a grocery store in Maryland and Mattie is a sophomore at an Upstate college. Two years ago, they were classmates at Carolina Springs Academy.
Ryan's mother said she sent him to the boarding school near Due West because he was using drugs and displaying threatening behavior toward her.
"It was a desperate situation," she said.
In a blog posted earlier this year, Ryan boasted about smuggling marijuana into the school.
He quickly became disenchanted, however, with the school's emphasis on discipline.
"It was kind of like a prison and I felt like I didn't deserve to be there," Ryan said in an interview.
On the run
Ryan and two others boys at Carolina Springs ran away on a cold and rainy night.
"So we busted out and ran as fast as we could toward the tree line because we knew the directors wouldn't be too far behind," Ryan said on his blog.
They were not the first Carolina Springs students to flee from the school.
Marion Johnson, the chief deputy in the Abbeville County Sheriff's Office, said more than 30 runaways were reported at Carolina Springs during a 12-year-period after the boarding school opened in 1998.
Most of the missing students were found in a few hours, Johnson said. But Ryan's case was an exception to the rule.
Ryan said on his blog that after getting separated from his companions and walking all night, he hitchhiked to Anderson and shoplifted four candy bars at a store.
He spent the next several days living in a family's Homeland Park trailer.
Concerned that school officials and other authorities were not doing enough, Ryan's mother traveled to South Carolina to search for her son.
Johnson said authorities found Ryan through a traced phone call.
A week after he ran away, Ryan said, his spirits sank when a deputy knocked on the door where he was staying. He felt certain that he would be sent back to Carolina Springs.
"I just lost all hope," he said.
Instead, his mother took him back to Maryland. She said Ryan's behavior improved for a while. But she ended up kicking her son out for smoking marijuana on the day of his high school graduation.
In his blog, Ryan wrote that "nobody should ever have to suffer not even a day in Carolina Springs Academy. And to this day, over a year and a half later, I still have occasional nightmares of the wretched place!"
Saving Mattie
Mattie's parents didn't know where to turn.
They had spent $30,000 to send their teenage daughter to a 30-day program at a highly regarded drug treatment center in Pennsylvania. When Mattie came back, she was even more difficult to control.
"We were in a hopeless situation," said Mattie's father, who was born and raised in Anderson. "She probably would have died within six months."
In a last-ditch effort to save his daughter, Mattie's father hired a teen escort service to take Mattie from a drug dealer's home where she was staying to Carolina Springs Academy in November 2008.
Mattie stayed at Carolina Springs for only a month. After hearing about the boys who ran away from the boarding school, her father decided to bring her home.
When he picked her up, he said, his daughter's hair was falling out and she was covered in flea bites.
But something else was also different, her father said.
"The person that I picked up was my little girl," he said. "We got our daughter back."
Mattie's father credited Carolina Springs with breaking his daughter's addiction to drugs.
"That program really is a blessing," he said.
Mattie is now attending college, where she is studying broadcast journalism, her father said.
He also said he is aware that some parents were not pleased with how their children were treated at Carolina Springs.
"I think the people who were unhappy with Carolina Springs were the parents who took their kids there prematurely," Mattie's father said.

Prescription Halloween contact lenses are safe to use and pose no or very little risk to your eyes. The FDA recommends that you buy prescription contact lenses whether or not you suffer from astigmatism, nearsightedness or farsightedness.
Since all types of contact devices, including opaques are classified as medical devices, you must obtain a prescription from an eye doctor in order to get prescription Halloween lenses. The novelty costume lenses you will get with an eye doctor's prescription are safe to wear and do not pose the side effects, risks or dangers that may come with nonprescription ones discussed below.
Generally, prescription eye lenses cost higher than no prescription eye costumes. You will need to see an eye doctor before you can buy the devices for your costume. In the end though, you will prevent risks such as eye infections, scratched eyes, discomfort and many others. Another disadvantage of prescription ones is that you may not find as many varieties of lenses as you would with no prescription.
Non Prescription Halloween Contacts – Without Prescription Costumes
Non-prescription festival costumes come in many different colors and styles. They may include the following.
- All black Halloween
- Whiteout or no pupil white contacts
- Big eye or circle
- Zombie
- Red contacts
- Pink UV, and many others.
Such contacts are also used in movies as theatrical or special effects contact eye accessories. You can wear them as part of your costume especially when you want to have scary eyes. The downside of most of the non-prescription contact lenses is that they are sold without an eye doctor's examination and recommendation. Since there is nothing like one-size-fits-all when it comes to these medical devices, you are likely to end up exposing your eyes to risks.
However, the advantages of these types of special effects color contact lenses are as follows:
- They are cheap. It is easy to find many online outlets selling these for cheap, with others offering discount Halloween contact lenses too.
- You can find them easily since there are a multitude places where you can buy Halloween color contacts online.

White Halloween Contacts
White eye contacts for Halloween come in different types and are used to produce a scary effect. You have seen these in horror movies, with most of them being used to produce a vampire effect. White Halloween lenses may be scleral or non-scleral. Scleral means that they cover the entire eye, making it produce a white-out eye effect.
White Halloween contacts can be worn specially with other white Halloween costumes such as white lipsticks and even snow white nail polish. See more on white colored contact lenses for festival costume.
Black Halloween Contacts
Black ones, just like white ones, are also very popular. These ones are common in movies to create a demon-eye effect. For Halloween costume purposes, black lenses are commonly scleral and will cover the whole eye with darkness. This will create a scary eye, or a hollow eye effect.
Scary Halloween Contacts
Scary Halloween contacts are those that create a freaking effect. Most of those in this category are either demon eye, zombie or a type like those used in twilight movies and others such as underworld movies.
Halloween scary colored costumes are used for the same purpose as those used in horror movies and where such effects are required. There are various types of scary special effects contacts that you can choose from when it comes from scary types. These include black lenses, white eye contacts, and the following.
All these can be classified as part of the crazy contact lenses that are commonly seen during Halloween season. You can choose any of these and get them with or without prescription. However, if you are a fan of cosplay oriented contact lenses for your costume, you can opt for the naruto or cosplay contact lenses for your costume.
Price of Halloween Contacts – Discount Halloween Contact Lenses

You can shop for cheap special effects contact lenses without prescription because this is the low-cost option. Some of these costumes are sold on Amazon and eBay.
The price or cost may differ depending on the type of special effect party contacts you are buying and the store you are buying from. For instance, black eyes cost between $29 and $129, same as whiteout Halloween costumes. The most costly ones are the full-eye lenses. However, you can buy discount Halloween contacts from several outlets offering cheap products and reduced prices.
Where to Buy Halloween Contact Lenses
Where can I buy Halloween contacts? You can buy Halloween lenses online, but that will depend on whether you are looking for those with a prescription or those without a doctor's recommendation. As is required by law, you are supposed to get a copy of your eye doctor's prescription and use it when buying decorative contact lenses. You can then buy your party eye accessories from an eye care professional or a specialized eye care store for eye accessories shop.
The price, generally, will compare closely to normal eye enhancement colored contacts. However, some will be more expensive than the normal standard pricing. It is important to buy your cosmetic lenses from a legal and authorized outlet.
- Avoid buying from beauty salons, street vendors, unlicensed online stores, and Halloween costume stores.
- Ensure that you buy FDA approved products from a reputable store. These are likely to be very comfortable and safe to wear.
- Wear lenses that are fitted for your eyes. The size of the contacts must be appropriate for your eyes.
Safety and Risks of Halloween Contact Lenses

New Report: Homeowners Vastly Overapplying Lawn Fertilizer
"A uniform green lawn is a sign of social irresponsibility." — Isabel Junkin
In a new report that reveals homeowners may be applying far more fertilizer than necessary, the author concludes that the nation's thirst for green lawns is having a dramatically negative impact on oceans and other waterways.
"The best action to reduce the input of nutrients to the (Chesapeake) Bay from residential lawns would be to ban the use of all synthetic turf fertilizers in the state of Maryland," concluded Isabel Junkin, a graduate student at the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University, who published a research paper on the significance of lawn fertilizer on the waterways of Maryland. The report can be found on the site of the Choptank River Eastern Bay Conservancy Web Site: http://www.crebconservancy.org/River%20News/View?id=63.
Junkin's data showed that in 2009 more than 300 million pounds of fertilizer was sold in Maryland for non-agricultural use. The University of Maryland recommends 86,488,251 lbs of nitrogen be applied to the state's estimated 992,847 acres of turf grass every year — suggesting a vast overload that is at least partially winding up in waterways. At 309,601,140 pounds, non-agricultural fertilizer is approaching the 429,565,160 pounds used on farms in Maryland.
"Suburban landscapes are replacing agriculture across the Eastern Seaboard," wrote Junkin. "Trends in fertilizer sales in the state of Maryland over the past 20 years show a steady increase in fertilizers sold for non-farm use. Nitrogen inputs from non-farm fertilizers in the United States between 1987 and 1997 increased by 98 percent and phosphorous inputs increased by 49 percent. The data clearly show that lawn fertilizer use is increasing in the state of Maryland and therefore is becoming a significant contributor to nutrient loading in the Chesapeake Bay."
Among her report's recommendations:
• Ban the use of quick-release fertilizers.
• Ban the sale and application of lawn fertilizers between October 1st and March 31st.
• Establish in-stream numeric criteria for nitrogen and phosphorous levels.
• Require homeowners and turf management operations to follow nutrient application plans in which the application of fertilizer is dependent on weather patterns and seasonality.
• More fully and thoroughly monitor for compliance and extract higher penalties from those in noncompliance.
The report mentions timing of fertilizer applications as a significant problem. Rainfall events or heavy irrigation after a fertilizer application can cause much of the product to runoff into surface water.
Overall, said the report, dramatic steps are needed to protect waterways.
'The data show that the maintenance of a green lawn negatively affects water, soil, and air quality; a uniform green lawn should no longer be an indicator of social status," wrote Junkins. "In fact, a uniform green lawn is a sign of social irresponsibility for the waste of valuable resources and the degradation of public resources. As suburban landscapes continue to replace agricultural land across the Eastern Seaboard it will become increasingly important to understand and mitigate the negative environmental effects on the Chesapeake Bay of maintaining a uniform green lawn."

Sailing the Seas of Cheese: Once More Unto the Breach
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more; Or close up the wall with our [Packer] dead! In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility: But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of a tiger. –Henry V by William Shakespeare
Good god, the football world is a fickle bitch. Last week pundits with names like King, Dungy, Irwin and Berman had all but crowned the 2011 Green Bay Packers the World Champions and their leader Aaron Rodgers as MVP in a contest of one. Wow, one loss and you'd think this team was Sucking for Luck. I mean, c'mon man, NFL.com currently has some flowery headline about Tebow losing yesterday and the sun still rising yet a heaping dose of schadenfreude over the Packers loss.
Really, gentlemen? One clunker game and suddenly Drew Brees is the Heir Apparent for the MVP? You do realize we beat him and he's lost a few after that, right? Same goes for Brady (only we haven't play the Patriots, but you get the idea.)
We all knew this day would come. Reminds me of my eighth grade basketball team. We went undefeated until the second-to-last game of the season and then we were pounded into to the ground by some podunk parochial school across the river whose point guard, I swear to god, had a mustasche. We were supposed to beat them handily. Only we didn't.
But you know what the only thing more pathetic than a bunch of thirteen-year-old girls sobbing in a locker room after losing to St. Boniface? That would be the current rending of garments and teeth gnashing over a team currently 13-1. Just remember a 10-6 team won the Super Bowl last year and a 16-0 team did not in 2008.
Part of me is actually glad the Packers lost yesterday (and not against the Bears or the Lions.) It brings things back into focus. For starters, that stupid Perfect Season Monkey is off their backs and with it the media circus that followed it. A perfect season–unless it is perfect through February–is just a paper victory. I'm sure the 2007 Patriots would have traded their one loss that season for something in December if given the choice.
Losing to what was supposed to be a cake team (and for the record, teams with a freshly canned head coach usually play that first game without him so very, very well) deflates egos and brings things down to earth. In the long run, I think it helps the Packers because it reminds them not to believe their own hype. We only need to look to December 12 of last year to show that history tends to repeat itself.
After all, it was after that game when Jimmy Johnson dismissed the Packers as all but done and told the football world to Stick a Fork in 'Em. That team looked a lot like the one playing yesterday. Yes, the Packers had Rodgers for all of the game yesterday unlike that game against the Lions. But the Chiefs accomplished the same goal minus the game-day amnesia and blinding headached: they kept Aaron Rodgers off the field and the Packers were hard-pressed to find the endzone. Meanwhile yesterday's defense looked a lot like the December 12, 2010 version as well: out matched, flatfooted and generally not that effective.
We can believe the new hype that the Packers are nothing more than a propped up team, that they are the same dead-in-the-water hot mess that Jimmy Johnson condemned last year. If that's the case, then we should close the walls and bury our dead like Bill said so eloquently above.
Or the Green Bay Packers can prove they are still the team to beat and prove the fair-weather pundits wrong. Gut check time wasn't yesterday when they were on the wrong end of a victory. Gut check time is now. It's time to refocus and stop looking for towards paper records and remember that the ultimate goal is on February 5. The need to find that spark, that conhesion that they did last year and reset a course that doesn't no longer includes the perfect season.
It resents priorities and reminds the team that any team–even the Indianapolis Colts–can win on Any Given Sunday.
It reminds them that each member of the 46 active plays an integral role in each game, no matter how big or small that role may be. And if that one player doesn't play up to his fullest potential it will effect the results of a game.
It means digging deep to find that cohesion and men of character that Rodgers has praised. It means putting a moratorium on asinine celebrations after a single catch that is nothing more than a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
No doubt, you need a certain level of narcissism and self-confidence to play in the NFL, but in situations like this that gut check involves remembering that you aren't helping your team if you are a distraction. Like Tom Crabtree eloquently tweeted yesterday: You win as a team, you lose as a team. The focus needs to remain team victories not individual accolades. You didn't see the Belt getting tossed around after Rodgers passed Brett Favre's single-season touchdown record nor did you see it when he ran a TD in as well. Does that mean I'm making Jermichael Finley a scapegoat this loss? Hardly (though four drops isn't an anomaly, it's a problem.) But you sure as hell don't do a Look At Me! celebration when your team is on the receiving end of a giant dose of hurt. There's a right time to celebrate and yesterday wasn't one of those moments.
That said, and you may not believe me after this column, the sky is not falling. The sun rose this morning like it always does while I was driving to work. The Packers are, like last year, the ones solely in control of their own destiny, only this year they don't have to worry about being elimintated from the playoffs. This year, they control their own destiny when it comes to home field advantage. All things considered, that's a pretty good destiny to be controlling.
I would like to think that an embarassing loss is exactly what this team needs. That bullseye that seemed to vanish the past few weeks is back where it needs to be: on the middle of the Packers' back. They perform so much better when they are the hunted and not the Chosen Ones.
It is time. Time to wake the sleeping giant that seemed to fall asleep at the wheel this past week. Time to act like the tigers Shakespeare's Henry V demanded.
And if last year is any indication, I'm not worried about the Packers rising to that challenge. A public butt-kicking helped them last year, and I'm pretty sure that compass has been reset. The Green Bay Packers are still the reigning Super Bowl Champions and still have the best record in the league. Let the rest of the NFL think they are done. That's exactly the fuel they need to jumpstart the post season.
Here endeth the rant.

I don't think there's any way of conclusively proving whether these so-called 'friends' were speaking with or without Pete's authority. For me LAO's brilliant post put forth a very convincing argument for giving him the benefit of the doubt this time. What we can see is that he hasn't responded to Kate's statement so if the press were trying to whip up an ongoing public fight between them they've been disappointed.
Meanwhile he was at the NTAs last night with Emily looking understandably a little strained but getting on with life.
Momma, I sort of agree with you about the wit but you manage to combine it with being so warm-hearted and wise and always look for the best in people. Clone enough of you and we'll probably have world peace by Christmas

We define the term "medical humanities" broadly to include an interdisciplinary field of humanities (literature, philosophy, ethics, history and religion), social science (anthropology, cultural studies, psychology, sociology), and the arts (literature, theater, film, and visual arts) and their application to medical education and practice.
The humanities and arts provide insight into the human condition, suffering, personhood, our responsibility to each other, and offer a historical perspective on medical practice. Attention to literature and the arts helps to develop and nurture skills of observation, analysis, empathy, and self-reflection -- skills that are essential for humane medical care.
[11/02/2012] Podcast with comments from Dr. Barron on the various aspects of medical humanities and benefits of the program. It is more than treating illnesses and diseases, but "how" to work and understand people. (09:56 )
The Medical Humanities Program at Baylor University is one of a handful of programs of its kind in the country. Our mission, in keeping with the vision of Pro Futuris, is to provide a truly transformational education for students seeking careers in healthcare and the medical arts under the guidance of faculty who are committed to compelling scholarship and dedicated to service.
Our program is breaking ground in a creative way, redefining how undergraduate students who aspire to careers in healthcare can be educated and equipped�not only with an outstanding foundation in the sciences, but also with a rich exposure to the humanities. It is a truly interdisciplinary program, consisting of courses taught by faculty from many other departments, including English, religion, philosophy, history, sociology and psychology and working together with faculty not only from the College of Arts and Sciences, but also from the Honors College.
A major in medical humanities is intended primarily for undergraduate students entering the field of healthcare. We have many pre-medical, pre-dental, pre-physician assistant and nursing students and students who are pursuing careers in allied health fields such as pharmacy, social work, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. Our students are also pursue careers in health education, public health, community health and healthcare administration.
Our graduates are employed by hospitals and clinics of all kinds, in fields ranging from primary care to , any medical or surgical specialty or subspecialty you can imagine�and in any clinical area, such as physical or occupational therapy departments, radiology departments, emergency rooms�the possibilities are endless. You will also find our graduates in pharmacies and other ancillary medical services, and serving as health educators or working in public health departments.
"I have learned that medicine is much more than just curing someone's disease. As healers, we are called to look not only at the physical symptoms but also the spiritual and emotional pain as well." -- Trisha Kelley.
"Fast forward almost four years later and I've realized that medicine will change my life and not just the lives of my patients. I've realized that medicine has chosen me more than I have chosen medicine." -- Huong Nguyen.
"Many schools can teach good science, but few challenge students to acknowledge the other, crucial facets of medicine." -- Jaden Schupp.
"I feel so grateful for the opportunity to be immersed in these conversations from the beginning of my premed years." -- Ivy Stejikal.
"I have learned that studying Medical Humanities at Baylor is so much more � bioethics, literature, and philosophy, for example, not to mention many shadowing and clinical opportunities." -- Hillary Villarreal.

I don't know anything about the photographer. There is a Nicolas Sage based in LA, but I don't know if it's the same photographer. His work doesn't seem to be geared towards glamour or pin-up.

It's that time of year for reflection on 2012 and planning for 2013. What's working, what are you going to change? How are you going to improve and what are you going to improve? Lisbeth Darsh has an awesome blog that I recommend that everyone follows, she has a way of communicating exactly my thoughts on a daily basis! Lots of people will tell you how to be successful at making changes but Lisbeth's post on how to stay motivated said it all to me as I work sometimes just to keep it all together and most of all, I've found that motivation is critical for learning and growth to occur.
Think of what it takes to keep you pushing yourself to do what needs accomplishing, have bravery to live the exact life that you want to live and to live it boldly and on full blast. Remember YOU are the one in charge of change in your life. Here's to making 2013 the best year yet.…
CrossFit Lisbeth 5 ways to stay motivated …
It seems every other blog or magazine has "motivational tips" this time of year: ways to keep you on the straight and narrow when all you want to do is curl up in some flannel pjs and eat mac cheese and pie while watching "Hoarders" or "Some Other Whacked People Show" until June or July.
The trouble with these tips? They're usually bullshit. A bunch of feel-good words that you can't remember ten minutes after you read them. They're literary carbs — they taste good going down but don't fully satisfy your hunger and — guess what? — now you're a little sleepy too.
So, instead, we're going to give you Five No-Bullshit Ways to Stay Motivated:
1.) Stop reading bullshit! If it sucks, put it down! Scroll by. Life's too short to put crap between your ears.
2.) Keep fucking going! Go to the gym almost every day. Rest when you need to. You know that, so do it.
3.) Kick yourself in your own ass. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. "Waah waah waah. My life is hard. I'm so busy. I have so much to do." Guess what? So does everybody else! And some people are doing their stuff with cancer or a couple of fewer limbs than you. Stop bellyaching and snap your own shit up!
4.) Don't hang around with losers. We've been over this before: you are who you spend time with. Think about it.
5.) Expect more of yourself. I first heard Denise Thomas yelling this at a trainee in an L1 seminar. They were in the middle of some horrid WOD and the dude let his form slip and squatted like a dog laying a nasty pile in the backyard. "Expect more of yourself!" He fixed his form and pressed on. So should you.
If you CrossFit at [OCCF], chances are you don't know what a 'loser' looks like within those walls – we don't have any as losers aren't the type to put their foot inside the box. You are part of the elite athletes every time you cross the threshold, surrounding yourself with positive and supportive people as you do the work and hold yourself accountable each and every time you walk in that door. Make 2013 the year you smash your goals!!!

Thanks Bubba & Aspin. I've seen affected H/H horses but, of course, no one wants to cop to the seriousness of it all. So, an N/H horse can actually have a pretty severe case of HYPP? I was told 'it will always be very mild form', so was thinking as long as you kept N/H to N/N for breeding it wouldn't matter. If they can be so very miserable, it explains why you'd want to cut it out rather than to try to manage it.
I knew when purchasing my cremello to check status and only go for N/N, because I don't want to have to manage or breed around a deleterious condition.
I also only breed SCID clear to clear.
