Garmy said the institute expects to have plans ready to submit to administrators by mid-spring. OSU Residential Life has expressed interest, he said.
Once the project is complete, the specifics of day-to-day life will largely be left up to the residents, Page said. Space will be set aside for residents to pursue any projects they choose.
So if a student moves in one year and is interested in aquaponics, he or she could start a group to pursue that interest, Page said. The next year, another student could start a group for solar technology.
Page said she'd like to see the village bring in goats for lawn care. Talkington hopes to see the village create a bed-and-breakfast where guests could live off the grid for three days or so.
Although the plans haven't been established, there's been discussion about allowing faculty members to live in the community, as well. That could reinforce the idea of having an integrated, heterogeneous community, rather than having single students segregated from married students and all students separated from faculty, Talkington said. That sense of integration could make the community a richer, more vibrant place to live, she said.
"If you provide the platform for community, it will spontaneously occur," she said.

Oakland welcomes 34 badly needed new police officers
The graduating members of the 169th Basic Academy bring the number of officers on the city force to 680
By Henry Lee
San Francisco Chronicle
OAKLAND, Calif. — The Oakland Police Department saw its ranks grow Thursday by 34, bringing a much-needed infusion of new officers to patrol the streets.
The graduating members of the 169th Basic Academy bring to 680 the number of officers on the city force, bolstering a department that has struggled to battle crime while decimated by cuts.
The new officers — some of whom speak second languages that include Spanish, Tagalog, Burmese, German French and Danish — must still undergo four months of field training while paired with veteran officers.
Mayor Jean Quan welcomed the graduates at a ceremony at the Scottish Rite Center at the edge of Lake Merritt. She noted it was her fourth academy to graduate in the past three years, following four years with no academies.
It was also the first academy class under Police Chief Sean Whent, though he had welcomed previous new officers as the interim chief.
The academy started six months ago with 55 recruits. By losing 21 before graduation, it had a washout rate well above the typical 20 percent, officials said.
"Some academies you'll see the numbers go up or the numbers go down as far as success and completion, but at the end of the day, we want the best of the best, and we want to provide the city of Oakland with the best candidate," said Officer Johnna Watson, a department spokeswoman.
The Oakland academy can be grueling, both physically and academically, Watson said.
"Some people realize it's not for them," she said. "Some people don't pass each of the testing phases. It's an extremely, very intense, high-pressured environment where you have to perform at 100 percent every single day."
The city, which has one of the nation's most understaffed police departments, wants at least 700 officers by 2015. The department had an all-time high of 832 officers in 2008.
Police hope the new officers will help offset attrition from officers who move on or retire.
The city has started an aggressive campaign to recruit new officers, spreading the word on social media and emblazoning its downtown headquarters building with a large sign encouraging people to sign up.
The city received grants from the U.S. Department of Justice in 2009, 2011 and last year that funded a total of 76 officers.
The 170th academy has already started and is set to graduate on Halloween, while the 171st academy will begin in September.
An additional 15 recruits are attending the Alameda County sheriff's academy and will graduate in September. A lateral academy, designed for current officers who want to transfer to Oakland, is scheduled soon.

Arts and entertainment journalist Jep Gambardella has a problem. Standing in the middle of the swanky pageantry of Roman nightlife at the age of 65, he feels more than a bit foolish and, as a result, lost. When first we meet him, it is amid the thumping techno and drunken revelry of a lavish rooftop party that seems initially that it should be the purview of 20-somethings cutting loose in Ibiza. But through it all strides Jep, resplendent in his stylish suit but feeling increasingly out-of-place amid such bacchanal, even though he is still welcome and desirable as a guest. It is not the nightlife that regards Jep as too old to partake in its frivolous revelry; it is Jep himself. Nor is it a condescending dismissal of the life; although frivolous, Jep is genuinely affection and thankful for the good times and is hesitant to let go of them. There is value, after all, in something that gives us pleasure, no matter how shallow it might be. It is simply that Jep now feels his time among these revels has passed. And although quick with an inviting smile, a companionly arm around the shoulder, or a heart-felt raising of the glass, he's beginning to wonder what the hell he's doing at his age still strutting around to booming electronica at four in the morning.

Battles without Honor and Humanity II: Deadly Fight in Hiroshima
I've been sitting here trying to think of an adequate way to describe exactly what it is that Sonny Chiba does and wears in this second film in Kinji Fukasaku's highly enjoyable, highly influential Battles without Honor and Humanity series of films that delve into the world of organized crime and the role it played in rebuilding post-war Japan. The closest I can come up with to summarize the acting display by Chiba is to say that you should try to imagine William Shatner and Jimmy Walker being merged into one creature, which the director then instructs to "stop being so subtle."

Cultural Gutter: …In a Galaxy Far, Far Away
Over on The Cultural Gutter, I'm following up last month's article about the Han Solo Adventures with …In a Galaxy Far, Far Away, a look at 1983's Lando Calrissian Adventures, a trilogy of pulpy space adventures written by a mad libertarian futurist and full of Lando thinking about fine tailoring, fine women, fine cigars, fine gambling, and in his spare time, rescuing multiple advanced alien races from obliteration while foiling the best laid plans of an evil space sorcerer.
Alcohol Professor: Single in Seattle
Over on Alcohol Professor, I'm writing about Westland American Single Malt Whiskey. Single in Seattle is both a look at the up and coming Seattle distillery as well as a rumination on the amount of shenanigans, bad whiskey, and lying that makes exploring American craft spirits exhausting when it should be fun. Luckily, Westland is the sort of thing that reminds you to sit back and enjoy from time to time.
Colossus and the Amazon Queen
People unfamiliar with genre films sometimes have this weird idea that the movies all carry themselves with an air of complete seriousness, that a particular type of film can't possibly be aware of its own cliches and pitfalls until some smarmy mainstream director steps in and makes a spoof. That spy movies, even James Bond, can't be aware of their own absurdity. Or that horror has never noticed its own cliches. The fact of the matter is that genre films are far more aware of their own short-comings and trappings than most mainstream films. For better or for worse, genre films — science fiction, horror, sexploitation, action, and so forth – have been self-referential and satirizing themselves since the early days. The Italian sword and sandal films that were so popular during the first half of the 1960s were no exception.
Space 1999: Once More With Feeling
Other than the long wait since the end of season one, there was little in "The Metamorph," the first episode of Space: 1999's second season to clue you into just how much had gone wrong with the series, and how much more wrong was waiting on the horizon. Certainly, some things had changed. For starters, there's a new theme song and someone must have found a box of colorful orange and blue jackets in a closet somewhere, because everyone has started wearing jackets. But you know how fashion trends are, and the sudden appearance of jackets is of no real concern (and I like to think inspired Jean-Luc Picard, who took five seasons of Star Trek: The Next Generation before he found a jacket). Alphans have also started wearing ID badges with their name and photo on them because…in a confined space for years with three-hundred or people or so, I am sure it was awkward for Koenig to still not know "that one guy's name." So he issued the command for "Hello My Name Is" tags to save everyone discomfort at parties.

Over on the Cultural Gutter, I'm ringing in Yule, midwinter, and whatever other Pagan festivities we can dig up by writing about a topic I normally avoid.

This round, it's Han Solo and Chewbacca in three nutty adventures from 1979.

Hovercrafts, psychic powers, robots, and men in banana yellow bodystockings will abound.

The World's Biggest Tourist Rip-Off...
... is Wookey Hole, just a few miles outside Wells. While the medieval city of Wells is lovely in every respect, Wookey Hole is a tiny village in the middle of nowhere which apparently was in desperate need of an attraction to compete with Wells. The Mendip Hills which sprawl just behind the village are full of caves, so what would be better than luring naive tourists into the caves, telling them they are "gigantic", "breath-taking" and "not to be missed"? We should have been warned: there is no such thing as a free lunch! The caves are small and consist of three rooms with approximately five stalagmites and stalactites and the occasional sleeping horseshoe bat. The guide considered himself funny and made jokes in an incomprehensible dialect, the legend of the caves is only vaguely interesting... But what is worst is the entrance fee: £16 per person!!!!!!!!! For this money you get the rather boring caves and a stupid, abysmal dinosaur theme park with plastic tyrannosauri, an exhibition of circus wagons, a mirror labyrinth, a room with flipper machines from in the year dot plus several over-expensive souvenirs and pay-extra attractions. Seriously, is there anyone in the world who would enjoy this?
Unique Suggestions: If you happen to be a bored-by-life millionaire and have children who are interested in dinosaurs made from plastic and covered in plastic snow, then visit Wookey Hole. If not, turn around as soon as you see the warning signs: "Funny" signs with witches on them. Press the pedal to the metal and drive away, or you might be sucked into this tourist trap, too.
Fun Alternatives: Ebbor Gorge nearby (see another tip) is a very nice place for a hike.

With Instagram recently announcing that they've reached a whopping 400 million users on their platform – bypassing Twitter's 304 million monthly active users – I wanted to take a look at how you can benefit from some of the exciting new features of Instagram ads for businesses. Instagram revealed that from 30th September 2015, all businesses are able to create Instagram ads on a self-service basis (via Facebook Power Editor). They have also made the platform available to more than 30 new countries. Previously, Instagram ads were only available to big brands with big budgets; but us mere mortals have now been given the opportunity to experiment with this platform (wahoo)! Read more

Neutral shades of grey and cream were the perfect match for my favorite studded cowgirl boots on a chilly day. Bundle up, Lovelies!

I like doing nice things for my girlfriend, and she likes doing nice things for me. It is not like "I am doing everything." I usually get her small things here and there, and put time into artwork that I do for her. However, my friends say that I am pussy-whipped, but as I said, I don't do... Show More
Most Helpful Guy
pussy whipped is a good thing in my book...haha. though I think your friends are just giving you shit and you should just be fine with the way things are. if your girl loves you than what else could you ask for? continue to do sweet things for her cause she obviously likes it...but don't go overboard and when she does something sweet for you just make sure to thank her and show her lots of love. it would be a bad thing if you tell her that you're p**** whipped cause it would give her the wrong idea of what the relationship is so as long as you just keep it between you and the boys...i would say that you're fine.

Sharing the Gospel story through song
Very Merry Christmas Tour coming to Anderson for first time
The Christmas hit "Christmas Shoes" was a song added into NewSong's album, "Sheltering Tree," at the last minute.
It was a bonus track that the Christian music group decided to tack on to the album. And it turned out to be the biggest hit of all the songs on the record. It has since been the inspiration for movies and books.
The song itself is based on a true story that a radio announcer and close friend of the band's read. It told of a boy who was trying to buy a pair of shoes for his mother, who was dying.
Goodwin said their friend encouraged them to write a song based on the boy's story.
"Our hope was that it would become a nice song," said Billy Goodwin, who plays the guitar and sings lead vocals for NewSong. "We never dreamed it would become a hit on mainstream radio. It really opened up a whole new audience for us."
That song definitely will be one of the hits performed by NewSong when the band, along with four other groups and some local high school performers, come to the Anderson Civic Center on Dec. 5.
It is all part of NewSong's Very Merry Christmas Tour, which will make a total of 17 stops during the holiday season.
The "Christmas Shoes" song is part of the reason why the band started the Christmas tour about 12 years ago.
This year, Audio Adrenaline, Sidewalk Prophets, Jason Castro and Love and The Outcome are on the tour's lineup. When they come to Anderson, several local high school students also will perform at the show.
NewSong will also perform songs from their newest album, "Swallow the Ocean," which has some Christmas songs included on it.
Roger Dixon, the promoter for the Anderson concert, said this is the second time NewSong has performed in Anderson. Dixon said he booked the Christmas tour in September because of the popularity of Christian artists with the Anderson audience.
He said the Christian artists Big Daddy Weave were popular when they came to Anderson in April. Dixon said he got his start in promoting concerts when NewSong came to Anderson the first time about 14 years ago.
"It is a market we are trying to build," Dixon said. "If we can reach someone who may be on the wrong path at the same time, that's huge."
Goodwin said he could not agree more. It is one of the wonderful things about performing during the Christmas season, he said. People are more open to hearing the Gospel message.
He said the band has had people tell them that they have brought family members who were struggling with questions of faith to concerts on the tour. For many, it is about hearing that story of Jesus' birth one more time or for the first time, Goodwin said.
"We have stories where families are put together or people have thoughts of suicide and they have found a new hope," Goodwin said. "Then we see them the next year at another Christmas tour, and we hear how they are teaching a Sunday School class. That motivates us to keep going.
"To me, that is an impressive thing that God has done."
What: Very Merry Christmas Tour
When: 7 p.m. Dec. 5
Where: Anderson Civic Center, 3027 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., Anderson

I really wish there was a way to verify what that guy said. The URL supplied appears to be dead, and Wayback Machine barely crawled anything.
The person behind the character "Syal=Va" in the game KOC made this image as a portrait of his/her friend/acquaintance, the character"Mirufy.
The picture is about 10 years old, the author left the game 1, 2 years later and since the game itself was also discontinued about 1 year ago it's difficult to find any more information that way.
There are many pictures, but there's almost no other way to see them than to get people who saved them to publish them/make them available.

How To Choose The Right Henna Powder
There are so many different henna powders, how do we choose the one that will work best for us?
There are a few things that are a must when choosing any henna powder:
–Fresh. You must always buy fresh henna powder. If you want a great stain, don't just grab henna off the shelf (since who knows how long it may have been sitting there) Even from crop to crop you will notice that the freshest henna powder gives the best stain results. After all, doesn't a chef use the freshest ingredients in the preparation of our meals?
–Body Art Quality. This means that the henna powder is the best quality since they take the leaves from the top of the plant with the most dye content. It also means that it is 100% pure and natural. This term is usually used to describe henna that is also used for body art.
(Please remember that not EVERY henna powder nor herb is body art quality. Ask yourself this: Is this henna powder or herb used as a body art product or really for hair usage? This term is sometimes only used for marketing purposes. Always be well informed.)
–Finely Sifted. None of that dirt, grit, sand, nor sticks help with getting a great staining henna paste. Even if you try to sift it yourself, you lose most of the henna powder you purchased.
–Pure. Must contain no pesticides or chemicals. No PPD nor any other powders or ingredients. Only get 100% pure henna powder.
Now that we have the basics down, now comes the individual henna powders.
Jamila Henna Powder
Jamila henna powder yields great stains results and comes conveniently packaged in 100 grams foil packages in sealed boxes (when it is stamped with summer crop for body art usage, and is also used for hair). It does have the longest dye release, taking up to 24 hours to prepare for body art, and 12 hours for use on hair, before ready to use. It is a reliable henna powder, but not great if you need henna quick. It has the ultimate best sift of ANY henna powder. It is very popular amonst professional henna artists, and for hair dyeing. It washes out of the hair very easily, and the texture pf the paste is similar to melted chocolate. It yields deep reddish-brown tones for body art and for hair orange-red tones. This henna comes from Pakistan.
Please read our more detailed article on Jamila henna powder.
Organic Rajasthani Indian Henna Powder
In ever increasing popularity, the organic indian henna powder from the Rajasthani Region, is very well balanced. You get dye release in 8-12 hours for body art. So you can start a batch in the morning and have it ready by the evening. The stains results are some of the darkest I have ever seen. Typically reddish tones (burgundy/mahogany) and sometimes near cherry black on skin. For hair it yields a reddish-burgundy tone. For hair usage, this powder we recommend you allow it to sit from 3-4 hours, and then apply onto your hair. It is triple sifted and through nylon cloth. On lighter hair it may come out more orange-copper toned.
Yemeni Henna Powder
The yemeni henna powder comes from the Sana'a region. It takes 8-12 hours to achieve dye release for body art. For hair, we recommend you allow this henna powder to sit from 3-4 hours before applying it. It is well known for being one of the stringy hennas. This henna powder is now much better sifted (since the 2009 crop), since the company has upgraded its henna processing facilities. Now many more henna artists are using this henna powder. It is absolutely one of the most popular henna powders for hair dyeing, and covers grey very well. It gives the most gorgeous, deep red tones of any other henna powder currently.
Moroccan Henna Powder
A very popular henna powder for both body art and hair, this henna is found in the Western Sahara. It has the quickest dye release. It is best to let this henna sit at least 2-6 hours for body art. For hair usage, only allow to sit for a maximum of 1 to 2 hours and then apply it. The dye can demise quickly if left out too long. It's not a good henna to freeze as a henna paste. It is also a stringy henna. It has great color, usually very bright and becomes quite dark suddenly (on skin). We usually recommend this henna powder for achieving brown to black tones along with indigo, when used in hair dyeing because the least amount of red tones will show through on your hair. We recommend it because it has a fast dye release, and alone on hair it gives orange to red tones.

Hello sir. I have some grey hairs. I want it to turn into black. So, which type of henna u will prefer to me? And I am using currently black henna powder bought from local store which contains 25% of PPD. Is it harmful?
Hi, I have super curly hair and I wanted to do a cassia treatment for bouncy and shiny hair but I've read that cassia will loosen my curl pattern. If I was to add Alma will that keep my curls from changing. I'm just looking for some great recipes for stronger and healthy hair, also I really need help with the growing process. I want to dye my hair but I'm going for a deep burgundy. Please recommend which henna I should purchase. Thanks
Hi which henna do you suggest for the bridal pattern? I am looking for best quality henna powder. Thanks
My hair is a really dark brown, almost black, and I'd like to keep my color. I don't mind a little red tint, I just want the easiest preparation process with the best conditioning results possible. Which henna do you recommend?
I have red hair I have bleached my hair and colored it red since December of 2014. I recently dyed my hair again a month ago and I want to strengthen my hair without messing up the color too much but I don't Mind if it changes to a burgundy. Which henna would you recommend ?
I put colora chestnut hair color it left my hair green. My daughter says probably cause I used it on bleached hair. I love the rest of the color though. My daughter says to use something with a red tone. How about abourn or mahogany. What do you suggest. I really like this product makes my hair soft. Also hairdresser says wait a week to try new stuff but I want to now
Hello Khadija,
I am new yet very interested in the Henna dying process for transitioning hair. I would like to know how long does the color stay? Is this treatment a permanent, semi-permanent or is it just a rise? I also have a dark brown hair and would love a noticeable red or copper color. Thank you for your help.
Hi Khadija,
I'm also new to using henna and recently did my first application last Thursday.
I have 2 inches of natural dark brown roots with few greys, and the rest of the hair shaft is a light ash blonde tone from previous chemical dye.
My Indian friend got me curious in henna that I decided to give it a try.
Well I went to a local indian beauty supply shop here in Thailand and picked up one brand Neha which I was told that it was a popular brand in India.
Anyway, i first used the body art Neha with coffee, egg, lime juice, coconut oil and mixed
Cont, mixture sat for 2 hrs and then applied and set for 2 hrs. Result was nice on the natural roots but the hair shaft and ends were too coppery red. My friend said I should dye it darker with chemical and then reapply henna.
I didn't want to use chemical again so I waited 1 week as it was slightly fading to redo with the Other Neha pack for hair with 13 herbs. Used in steel bowl, mixed w/coffee, black tea, coconut oil no egg this time. Set for 5 hrs, applied on hair for 4 hrs. This time the result was a rich deep dark brown on the roots and on the hair shaft to the ends were a deeper reddish almost burgandy color. Not exactly what I like. I want my natural dark brown hair with just a hint of yellow or red hue to the hair.
How can I get that color and tone? Indigo?
Hey! Thank you for this informative article! Question: why I can't buy anything using your website? I got interested in Yemeni henna..& went to purchase it but but it keeps saying it's not available, actually non of the other henna is available I think. I hope your web store isn't closing.

"Slave Tetris" pulled from Steam game after social media backlash
Oh cool, so we're taking the "I'm offended that people are offended" line?
Give me a break. There are plenty of things that I am not personally offended by, but I don't have that history hanging over me. I don't know what it's like, and am not going to pretend that I do, or that people are wrong for finding a slave tetris game a little iffy.
It's *good* that we're talking about these things now, and that people who previously did not have a voice are now speaking out about the symbols that most of us have taken for granted for so long. Sometimes they'll go too far, but having them there is important.
I don't think there was malicious intent on the part of the developer here. But it was a silly thing to put in the game, and it's not wrong to point that out. (it could do without the insults though)
Also, the developer's "I'm sorry that you were offended" non-apology doesn't really help matters either. Reply +2

Yu Suzuki wants $10 million to make a truly open world Shenmue 3
@Steroyd but he didn't say $2m would be "bare bones, finish the story". $2 was the target. It's only now, a few days later, that he's gone "oh yeah, but we need *this* much now to make it really shine".
He's basically wasted the initial rush of donations. Plenty of people would have gone "Cool, it's funded! I don't need to worry!", or "I'm sure Sony will step in to address any shortfall". If he had addressed all of that right at the beginning, I think the project would be in even better shape. Reply +5
I'm finding this all a bit confusing. If he needed $5-10m to make the game what he really wanted it to be, then why not say that at the beginning? And is Sony really doing nothing? $10m would be absolute peanuts to them: a tiny, tiny fraction of the cost of making pretty much any other blockbuster game. Reply 0

We need to talk about emulation
I'm a newly-trained archivist familiar with the literature, so might be able to shed some light on this.
I think the problem here is that the law hasn't really caught up yet. In countries like America, for example, different elements of a game are treated as different entities in terms of copyright. The artwork in a game is copyrighted similar to an artistic work, and the code is copyrighted similarly to a work of literature. Other countries treat a "game" as a computer program, and only one country as far as I know (South Korea) treats the entire game as an artistic work.
The result is that determining the legality of things like emulation is very, very confusing. Prospective emulators can currently take advantage of this confusion and vagueness in the legislation, but that will not last forever.
This is also an issue for abandonware games that no longer have servers to support them, and whether should be legal for people to bypass the DRM of those games. There's a current dispute in America between industry and consumer groups about this exact issue.

@Liuwil choosing which things to report on (or not report on) is influenced by how important you think they are. If you didn't think it was a big deal, then you wouldn't make a news story about it.
So, the "sentiment" and "personal opinion" that you so decry is implied in every choice that organisations make about what is "newsworthy". So why do you single out games journalism? Is it "personal opinion" that you're against, or just the opinions (ie. the ones that you describe as "politically correct") that you disagree with? Reply -1

I'm not about ratings, I'm talking about personal stuff. I've seen movies that have "engaging" stories, but which I still find morally reprehensible. This is not to say that I support their banning, but to say that the content of a story is competently irrelevant is really quite wrong-headed, imo.
Respectfully speaking, of course. :p Reply 0
@GiarcYekrub so you don't think the content of the story matters at all? If a game had a story about a suicide bomber protagonist blowing up a school, or a serial rapist, or a child rapist, all you would care about is the gameplay, and whether the story is "engaging" or "dull"?
I'm sorry, but no. Content matters, particularly these days when games have much stronger, more realistic narratives running through them. Reply +2

@IronSoldier with respect, more than a few of those points boil down to "be offended if someone is religious". Which is fine if their religious beliefs are impacting on you or being forced on you in some way, but otherwise it's just being a dick for no good reason.
