From 1984-87, I lived and worked as a journalist in Seoul, though I returned to Wisconsin from May 1985 to February 1986. When I returned to Korea, I took on two jobs in journalism-related work, both arranged by the same publisher. I also met some women that would play key roles in my life.
It seems I arrived halfway-through preparations for my first magazine issue, so if I did any reporting immediately, it was minimal. I did catch on to my copy-editing duties during the first couple of weeks there, though.
My second issue was more involved. Mr. Kim made me tourism specialist, too, so I wrote ten stories published in that issue; thus, I had to travel about Seoul a bit. Although I'd been in the habit of taking buses and taxis at Yonhap, with Business Korea, I took many taxis, rarely a bus. My Korean was poor, but a lot of the people I was dealing with spoke fairly decent English, and I'd gotten used to travelling about in Seoul, when I worked for Yonhap.
Among the staff working for Mr. Kim then were Laxmi Nakarmi (from Nepal, our managing editor, who was married to a stay-at-home Korean mom); Erwin Schroeder (from Mizzou); Ollie Gadacz (from Toronto); Sohn Jie-Ae (our star reporter at 23, who went on to work for the New York Times, then CNN, where she is Seoul Bureau Chief now; she has also been a president of the Seoul Foreign Correspondents' Club); Lee Byang-Jang (Ms. Sohn's husband, who works for Newsweek in Seoul); John Gerhart (from Princeton, a part-time copy-editing assistant, who also taught English at Yonsei University); Ms. Wang (a petite, cute reporter, who would accompany me to Pusan that year, when I did some freelance photography for Greenpeace, relating to whaling); and the vice president for Mr. Kim's entire company (which also did advertising and public relations), another Mr. Kim, I believe. There was also a female university student who kept dropping by for advice from me about graduate schools, who became a regular staffer after I left. Also after I left for new work in Seoul that November, David Johns moved from Yonhap to Business Korea.
Image via Wikipedia
As time passed, I wrote stories ranging from yogwans (Korean hostels), the fur coat industry ,and profiles of foreign ambassadors, to the upcoming Seoul Olympics. I also freelanced for one of Mr. Kim's clients, Korean Air's Morning Calm Magazine. I wrote about a half-dozen full-length features for the latter, including one or two with a pen-name, Joseph David. Mr. Kim didn't like to give me many credits with my own name, David J. Marcou, because I had a restricted visa, and was not supposed to be working full-time in South Korea.

Thanks for that. Of course the 3 questions with their attendant risks that Fuji has to ask itself when considering 120 also applies to 35mm. The answers to the three questions you pose above might have been: "No", "no" and "none" and yet it has taken the chance of re-starting it in 35mm . I don't know the economics of re-starting the 35mm film but I do wonder whether a "let's wait and see" approach about starting the 120 makes sense.
It might have been sensible to re-start both together to send a message to Fuji users that Fuji was still into B&W film for the long term
I suspect that if Ilford had been faced with the same problem as Fuji and had then solved the issue concerning the banned material it would have re-launched both together.
Ilford had to rise like the mythical phoenix out of the ashes when it was bought out and there must have been a great temptation to re-start cautiously but it sent out a loud and clear message that it was committed and it seems to have worked.

SILVER CITY >> The Joy Global Foundation has awarded the Mimbres Region Arts Council (MRAC) $5,000 for continuation of its Youth Mural Program and Youth Mural Camp.
Throughout the 10 year history of the MRAC's Youth Mural Program, over 40 murals have been designed and produced throughout Grant County. Funds from the Joy Global Foundation will help to continue work on Penny Park's Many Hands Mural, whose goal is to connect students to their community and provide a piece of public art at the center of the park. Also intended for this year's Youth Mural Camp is the creation of an image of a dragon on the restroom building of the park.
"This funding helps us toward completion of the Penny Park project, giving thousands of students the opportunity to be involved and to take pride in ownership," Diana Ingalls Leyba, Program Coordinator, said through a news release. Funds will also go toward completion of phase three of the Visitor's Center Mural.
The idea behind the Youth Mural Program and Camp is to connect every student in the county to their community by engaging them in a lasting artistic project that beautifies their own immediate surroundings. The project's goal is to teach students the techniques of forming clay and customizing it through etched designs, words, pictures and color. Younger students learn to glaze and fire the pieces while older students help install tiles on the wall.
"Through this program we have seen students learn that they can help beautify their environment through the arts, they can feel connected to their community through the arts, and they can strengthen their relationships with others through the process, forming a sense of pride in their accomplishment. We are very grateful to the Joy Global Foundation for their generosity," MRAC Executive Director Faye McCalmont said through a news release.

Some similar scripts are available for 5 to 10 $. I think you will find them if you search Google

If you want I can sell you the freeproxies.eu script it's nearly similar to the atproxy script.
unikscript.com. It's nothing like atproxy. You (or someone) has made it look similar-ish, and done a good job too, but do you have resell rights for that script?
If I can't be a good example, I'll just have to be a terrible warning...
So are there any proxy list scripts that are free out there?? I have been using one from "proxycoder", but he doesen't seem to be out there any more. There hasn't been update in months.
I don't know of any (legal) free listing scripts at present but there are some cheap ones about. A lot of people are using the pointproxy one, $15 or there's the speedy proxies script for $10. If you're happy with what you've got now then there's no reason to change until something better comes along. The good news is you don't need a link in the footer now, it can be removed and used without one.
If I can't be a good example, I'll just have to be a terrible warning...

Mr. Head died Sunday, June 10, 2012, at Northeast Georgia Medical Center after a brief illness.
Born Jan. 19, 1917, in White County, he was the son of the late Lee Head and Laura Presley Head. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, Beulah Beaty Head, three brothers and four sisters.
Mr. Head was of the Baptist faith and a member of Hillside Baptist Church in Cornelia.

During his career he attained the rank of technical seargent.
In 1946, after an honorable discharge from the Army, he spent 62 years as sole proprietor of Modern Gun Shop. He repaired thousands of guns and heard many stories of the biggest buck ever and the "one that got away." All counted, he spent 70 years doing what he loved. He was a lifelong member of the National Rifle Association.
He is survived by one daughter, Beverly Jordan of Alpharetta; and one son, Herbert Head of Cornelia.

She had found the clearing on accident, hidden away in the dense forests, tucked back away from a world that was becoming more and more crowded with people and technology. It was a sanctuary, only able to be found by those who knew where to look, or who stumbled there by chance, and didn't understand the meaning of the place. She was just a girl, in the only place in the forest that was clear enough where you could look up and see the blue sky. The light had hit the stones just right, and as she stood there, the gods had appeared. Owl faced creatures with grass-like hair, small, fat ones with moon colored skin, foxes with the eyes of humans who looked at her and laughed, their teeth so white they shone, and then there was him. He stood tall, proud and old, tired and dying. The god of the forest. He didn't say a word, and she wasn't sure if he even could speak. His face was nothing but a gray spiral carved into a stone, his body made of twisted roots and rocks that crumbled off him when he moved, but never seemed to make him fall apart.
/You do not belong here, little one./ A slow, deep voice that sounded like a tree groaning. The odd god who said it was like an old toad, looking at her with big bulging eyes. /It is not your time./
It had felt like ages had past, but now she was going back. The toad god had told her to return when she knew the world, and could count the stars, whatever the hell that meant! He said the gods would come out one last time, and then be gone forever, and if she wasn't patient, she would miss it, and never see them again. She was tired of waiting, and something was telling, no, forcing her back to that place. Back to the god with the spiral stone face, back to that odd banquet she had found all those years ago.
Her body ached from the running, and her lung burned, but she couldn't stop. Not now! Not when she was so close!!!! What if he had gone? She couldn't think that. Not now, not after all this time had gone by!
She stumbled, falling her way into the clearing, her body crumbling, unable to run any further. She gasped for her breath, clinging to the ground and clutching the grass like the whole world would fall out from under her if she wasn't careful. She didn't want to look up, afraid that if she did, she'd be alone. The triangular opening to the cave where people had long ago built a small wall for the gods would be crumbled into nothing but a pile of ruble. The carving above the triangular door would be smashed, and the old trees that hung low for the small moon colored gods to sit would be dead and nothing but stumps. As she rose her eyes, she knew her fears were foolish, but her heart couldn't help but to turn to the worse.
The clearing was the same, right down to the small rocks where the fox goddess had sat, judgmentally grinning at her as she licked her paws, but there was no one there....she had missed it. Her body trembled, the pit of her stomach turning as a sob rose in her throat. Her forehead went to the ground as she cried, her tear streaked face, smeared with dirt and mud. She couldn't move as she clung to ground, ripping up handfuls of grass, her insides feeling like they were caving in on themselves.
/What a horrible sight./ a cold voice cut through her sobs. /It's hard to believe a little thing like you is his favorite./
She lifted her head, only to be staring into the fox with the human eyes, sitting a few feet from her, looking down with a stare that could only be described as disgusted, as if a fox really could feel that emotion at all. The girl blinked, wiping her eyes, sitting up, "I thought..." The fox looked unamused, as if she had no right to be speaking to her, but she continued anyways, "I thought you all had gone."
The fox laughed, her teeth glittering brightly, /Oh no. He couldn't leave without seeing you again. It's so hard to believe!/ The fox came closer, sniffing her over, bored, /A human. A creature no better than food. His favorite./
The girl watched her, only pausing when she felt a fingerless hand on her face, making her turn her head to find herself looking at a little moon colored creature. It tilted its head, smiling with a face that only had a crude mouth, and touched her nose as she stared at it in shock.
/They're water babies./ the fox said, licking her paw, very bored with the two of them, /They're harmless, if not a bit bothersome in the dry season./
The tiny humanoid patted her nose, looking up as some more little white bodies came out of the ground, now and then a few of them letting out a whistle as they crawled over the ground jumping in and out of cracks in the ground. The girl sat up, curling her knees to her chest to brush them off, the fox goddess sitting beside her in silence of a long moment as they watched the parade of gods and goddess, some of horrifying, and others so beautiful, the goddess had to give the human a scolding look for coming to tears.
/Waste no tears for them./ she said as the human girl wiped her face yet again, /They shed no tears for you./
"Where are all of you going?" She asked, watching the great toad god crawl his way out of the ground, his muddy body glistening as he wiped his hands over his bulging eyes.
/We're dying./ her voice was distant, proud and angry all at the same time, /This isn't our world any more and we have no right to try and exist in it./
The girl watched as a pair of owl faced tree gods greeted each other, touching each other's faces in the odd way that they did after not seeing each other for a long time. "I'm sorry." she finally said, turning her attention back to the fox.
/You should be./ was all she replied, lifting her chin when all the noise of the forest seemed to melt away.
The procession of monsters and gods stopped as he stood, tall as a tree, his body, growing and decaying, covered in new grasses, yet dying moss came into the clearing. The girl stood, looking up at him as he seemed to greet the god and goddess with barn owl faces, and plant like bodies. He didn't see her yet, but he had to have known she'd have come back to this spot. When he turned his head, dirt and rocks fell from his neck as his featureless face seemed to fall on her. She stared at him, swallowing as her eyes traced the spiral that was etched into the rock, unsure where to look, but unable to look away. He was beautiful and horrifying, and as the longer she was able to stand in his presence, the less her body ached.
He tiled his head, kneeling down and reaching out a gnarled tree limbed hand. She stared at him a long moment, uncertain and unsure of herself until the fox goddess sank her white fangs into her leg, /GO WITH HIM!/ she snarled, the girl jumping and stumbling back, crying out, /It is an honor to walk with the king of the forest you fool!/
She stumbled a bit, only to fall into the cupped hands of the god. His fingers, like the rest of him, were nothing but gnarled wood, clumps of dirt and grass, and other things you'd find on the forest floor. He helped her into his palm, holding his thumb out so she could have something to hold onto as he stood. They walked in silence, the girl unable to say a word, standing on one leg as blood began to flow out from where the fox had sunk her teen into her ankle. As the blood dripped down onto his hand, he stopped, turning his head towards her and appeared to look at her quizzically. It was hard to judge the emotions of a stone, but she supposed he must have been questioning, "Oh no..." she said, looking down, her voice soft, "I'm quite alright...."
He shook his head, and seemed to let out a sigh. /She is a young goddess./ he finally spoke, his voice coming into her head much like all the other gods she had seen, /I hope you forgive her./
The girl looked him over, so very close to his face now. She gently reached out and touched the smooth stone of what she could only assume was his cheek, trailing her fingers down the rock. "Why don't you have a face?" She asked him quietly.
/I am life and death, created by a being even higher than myself. I do not question things like this./ his voice seemed to sound like the god was smiling, /Your face is very odd to me as well./
The two stood in silence, both looking each other over before the girl finally spoke again, "Why did you call me back here? I've never been able to figure out why you picked me in the first place, or what for. I was just a child, but my whole life, I've always wondered-"
/Why we chose you?/ he finished for her, /We are the children of yesterday, and you are the daughter of tomorrow. Humans are the future of this world, we know that now.../ he was quiet, his voice sad, /I need someone to teach us the ways of your kind, if we are to pass on our knowledge to the future generations./
"So you picked me?!" She exclaimed, disbelieving, "I'm a nobody! A waitress for Pete's sake! I haven't gone to college, I don't know anything! And you expect ME to teach YOU!?"
The god laughed, stunning her into silence, /You will know in time why you were chosen./ He gently touched her ankle as he spoke, making her jump, /We will not force you to undertake this task, if you don't want to./ she watched as the bite began to sew itself shut, leaving nothing but a white scar from where the goddess had bitten her, /But it must be you./
"You're making me decide wither or not your kind lives or dies?" her voice came out shocked, "How can you ask me to do something like that?"
The god turned his face downward, looking away from her, /It is not something I'm proud to burden you with...but you are the one I must ask./ He looked back up at her, /So will you do it? Will you be the one to teach us?/......

We had a little get together today, and I promised my friends I would try to recreate the cake I threw together. It was a last minute inspiration, and I didn't follow a recipe... I think this one would go well with coffee. Please remind me to offer coffee/tea next time, people! I get a little scatter-brained some days!
Here's what I did:
3 T. ground flaxseed
2 c. oats
4 c. boiling water
Mix together, allow to sit for 10-15 min. It will get thick and porridge-like, if it gets too thick, add a little more water to thin it down. I think I ended up adding about another 1/2 cup...
1.5 t. vanilla
1/2 c. oil
1 - 1.5 c. raw sugar
1/2 c. apricot jam
Mix well.
4 c. flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Mix well. pour in a large pan (I used my lasagna pan) and bake in a preheated oven (175 C/350 F) for about 1 hr, test to make sure it is done...
I started this site because so many of the frugal food sites I love are just jam-packed with recipes that are decidedly un-kosher. And lots of other frugal living sites are extremely religious, and not in a Jewish way. And that just wasn't working for me. I hope that I can share some ways to be frugal AND kosher. And share some of my thoughts about our life since making Aliyah. Oh, and if you share my recipes, menus, musings, etc, please link back to this blog. Thank you.

Threats to Humanity's Progress Are Outlined
Pope Addresses Ambassadors to UNESCO
| 1967 hits
VATICAN CITY, MAY 9, 2004 (Zenit.org).- John Paul II says the authentic progress of humanity is threatened by war, poverty and racism.
The Pope expressed this concern Saturday when he met with a group of ambassadors accredited to the Paris-based United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. The ambassadors visited Rome to meet with the Holy Father.
"Unfortunately, in these difficult times, we often find our progress threatened by the evils of war, poverty, racism and the exploitation of others," John Paul II said when welcoming the ambassadors.
"These harmful influences not only weigh on our human existence but they also hinder our capacity to build a better world," he added.
The Pope appealed to "organizations such as UNESCO" to continue to be "an essential element in the construction of a true culture based on peace, justice and equity."
The Holy Father reminded the ambassadors that the "advancement of human society is directly related to the progress of culture," as mankind, "in fact, lives a truly human life because of culture, an important expression of which is found in the arts and sciences."
Because of this, the "Church has constantly appealed to the fine arts to assist it in celebrating the gift of life and, very especially, its sacred rites in a worthy, just and beautiful manner."
"Moreover, the Church has encouraged the development of the sciences, especially in her promotion of the dignity and value of human life," he said.
The Pope added: "This commitment is expressed concretely through the creation of numerous institutions such as the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, which recently celebrated its fourth centenary, the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, and the Pontifical Academy for Life."

Posted September 2, 2003
HOLLAND – The Hope College Visiting Writers Series will feature Rick Moody, author of "The Ice Storm" and several other books, on Wednesday, Sept. 17, at 7 p.m. in the Knickerbocker Theatre.
The public is invited. Admission is free.
Moody's most recent book is a memoir, "The Black Veil," which describes his decade of abuse of alcohol and other drugs, leading to time in a psychiatric hospital.
Thomas Pynchon says of the book that "Rick Moody, writing with boldness, humor, generosity of spirit, and a welcome sense of wrath, takes the art of the memoir an important step into its future."
Moody's short stories have appeared in "The New Yorker," "Esquire," "The Paris Review" and "Harper's."
At just 41 years of age, Moody has moved from being an upcoming young writer to an established literary figure. His 1994 novel, "The Ice Storm," received critical acclaim, and was made into a successful movie starring Kevin Kline. His other novels include "Purple America" and "Garden State," and he has had two collections of short stories published as well.
He also edited "Joyful Noise: The New Testament Revisited," a collection of original essays by 21 prominent writers who talk about what the New Testament means to them today.
In 1997, "Entertainment Weekly" named him one of top 100 creative people for 1997, reflecting his popularity. But he is also the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, and his works are now appearing in literary anthologies.
A graduate of Brown and Columbia universities, Moody has created a fresh style. The literary magazine, "Salon," says Moody's work is "something like Cheever crossed with Pynchon, … (he) throws down a literary gauntlet to all serious young writers."
The Knickerbocker Theatre is located at 86 East 8th Street in downtown Holland.

Blogs from expats in Indonesia
Would you like to work, live, move to Indonesia? Or just to find out how is life in Indonesia? We've got much more than travel brochures: read blogs written by expats living in Indonesia!
The ups and downs of living in Jakarta from a young woman's point of view. Thrilling. :)
JakHacks: get in, fit in, get out on the weekend, get back, get married. Categories include Dutch Jakarta, Jakarta Women, Bali Moon, Madly Madura and Herbal Tease. The Sharehouse has large, quiet, downstairs bedroom w/ attached bath opening up 1 June 2013. We're 10 minutes from the central office district and prefer long-term subleases.
A recollection of the doings, goings & happenings of my life as an English teacher abroad. It's now 11 mo. into my time in Indonesia. I'll reference my time in Spain teaching, and my hometown (Seattle) plus lots else. I've been told I never take the easy path. Easy it's not, but it makes life anything but boring. Names maybe changed, I don't want to anger anyone. Accuracy is subject to my opinion & preference, as well as the weather, alignment of the moon & my state of intoxication.
I am a small town girl from South Carolina until one day I sold everything I owned and moved to Bali, Indonesia with two suitcases. My blog is my outlet for all things I love and allows me to journal all things that inspire me. I also hope to share with you some of my expat experiences about life in Indonesia. Indonesia is such a diverse country with many different cultures and lifestyles. Still Want More? Please step into my world and have a look around.
I am a 23 year old Scot discovering the highs and lows of life in Jakarta, Indonesia. My blog is filled with amusing articles about the weird and wonderful things I encounter here, alongside some advice for any newcomers who might feel as lost as I did when I first arrived.
In this blog I write about all my holidays which I've made in 2011....
Exploring Jakarta one decrepit bus line at a time and learning about democracy building and human rights issues in the process.
Slouched into Indonesia in early 1999 intent on committing journalism. Fell in love with the country and a special someone. The Stockholm Syndrome has truly set in and I'm a willing, complicit hostage to this great country, with a wife and grinchlet twins (2010). While life is grand, I've not surrendered the critical faculties and prejudices honed to a fine point by firelight through many a long Canadian winter. For all the stunning advances since Suharto left, the paradoxes of modern Indonesia and its colorful collection of evil scumbags, willful incompetents, and fruitcakes offers fertile soil for commentary and hopefully, humor.

FORT HOOD, Texas — A game of "quick-draw" between two soldiers in Iraq went horribly wrong, leaving Falmouth Army Sgt. Matthew Gallagher dead and his roommate facing possible murder charges, court testimony revealed Saturday.
The five-hour pretrial hearing explained how Gallagher, 22, was shot in the head and killed on June 26, 2011 by his roommate Army Sgt. Brent McBride, 25, during a game where both men would see how fast they could draw and aim their 9 mm pistols at each other.
Prosecutors said McBride held his gun to Gallagher's head and pulled the trigger. The two soldiers were deployed in Iraq as part of the 1st Cavalry Division out of Fort Hood.
"It's a tragic accident," said defense attorney Stephen Scot Sikes, who specializes in military cases, during the Article 32 pretrial hearing at the base where the two men were formerly stationed.
Although Gallagher's death was described as accidental and brought on by dangerous horseplay between two soldiers, inconsistencies in evidence surrounding the event left Gallagher's family doubting his death was an accident.
Cheryl Ruggiero, Gallagher's mother, said she cannot ignore troubling physical evidence and a discrepancy in McBride's account of her son's death.
"That is a fabrication," Ruggiero said after the investigative hearing. "It's all based on the (word) of two men; my son, who's 6 feet under, and this man who walked out the courtroom a free man."
After hearing evidence presented today, Army Maj. Bill McGlothlin, who served as the hearing investigator, will recommend to Army Col. Douglas Crissman, commander of the 1st Cavalry Division's 3rd Brigade, whether the government should move forward with the case.
McBride could face charges including negligent homicide, involuntary manslaughter or murder. Army officials were not certain how long a recommendation may take.
Prosecutor Capt. Kate Buzicky first called to the stand an Army Criminal Investigation Division special agent who first examined the crime scene and interviewed McBride mere hours after the shooting. The agent, who was not in the courtroom, testified via speakerphone. McBride stared forward without emotion during the agent's testimony. His father, the Rev. Dr. C.J. McBride, watched the proceedings in a similar blank state. The Rev. McBride declined to comment to the media.
When the agent examined the two 9 mm pistols at the scene, he said, one was loaded with a magazine in it and the safety off. The other was not loaded and had its safety on.
In tears, McBride appeared to be in shock when the agent interviewed him shortly after the shooting, he said. McBride told the agent that he saw Gallagher load both his and McBride's pistols.
About five or 10 minutes later, Gallagher pulled his gun on McBride as part of the ongoing quick-draw game and asked McBride, "What would you do now?"
McBride then picked up the pistol sitting on a storage container in the room, pointed it at Gallagher's head, and pulled the trigger, the agent said McBride told him. McBride later explained that he did not know if the gun was loaded, the agent said.
In a subsequent interview, McBride told the agent that the two soldiers often played quick-draw, but never with loaded weapons.
During a cross-examination of the agent, the defense said a witness observed that both guns were in the "fire" position when he saw them.
Sikes surmised that, in the immediate aftermath of the shooting, the guns were kicked around, knocking the safety of one out of place.
In the courtroom, Ruggiero broke down in tears when Maj.Paul Uribe, an Army medical examiner, described in detail the physical evidence that he said proved the gun's muzzle was against Gallagher's head when the shot was fired.
Uribe eventually ruled the death a homicide, because of the physical evidence and the descriptions of the alleged horseplay suggested that McBride intentionally put a loaded gun to Gallagher's head.
Two soldiers called to testified both said Gallagher and McBride were close friends who were known to play quick-draw. Spc. Zachary Graham said McBride also carried a loaded weapon on base at least once, despite a strict rule that soldiers should not.
Weeks before Gallagher's death, Graham said he approached McBride when he noticed his pistol had a bullet in the chamber.
"I tried to correct him," Graham said, but he said that McBride ignored advice from the lower-ranking soldier. "(McBride's reaction) was kind of like, 'I'm a sergeant, you're a private, I'll correct myself.'"
In a closing statement, Buzicky brought up McBride's statement that he saw Gallagher load both weapons, but still put one to Gallagher's head and pulled the trigger. She said that as a soldier, McBride must have known that such an action would result in death or serious injury. "Murder doesn't need a motive," Buzicky said.
Sikes argued that the government failed to prove McBride knew the pistol was loaded when the shooting occurred. The shooting was simply the result of two soldiers acting irresponsibly when they should have known better, he said. "They may have been exercising absolute immaturity ... on each and every occasion they played this game," Sikes said. "The accused must know that" the gun was loaded to prove murder.
Katie Gallagher, the Falmouth sergeant's widow, said she also doubts that the death was accidental. If it was an accident, however, she said she resents never receiving an apology.
"If it was an accident, he should feel sorry," Gallagher said. "He did not ever apologize to me or Cheryl, or Matt's father."

Two guys used to drinking beer for fun suddenly become fierce competitors in a sort of Lager Olympics in this over-the-top comedy. Todd Wolfhouse (Erik Stolhanske) and his brother Jan (Paul Soter) are from a German-American family but have never visited the Old Country until their grandfather dies and they fly to Germany to scatter his ashes. Todd and Jan arrive during the annual Oktoberfest celebration and accidentally discover a secret competition, "Beerfest," in which the world's leading beer guzzlers determine who can handle the most brew during several days of heated drinking games. Todd and Jan are no slouches when it comes to downing suds and offer to compete, but the German branch of the family, the Von Wolfhausens, scoff at their desire to enter the contest and inform them no mere American could hope to carry away the Beerfest honors. Determined to prove Yanks can swill beer and embarrass themselves just as well as anyone, Todd and Jan bring their most skilled drinking buddies to Germany to defend America's honor on the field of drunken battle and show their German relatives that the family's talent didn't vanish when they crossed the pond. Beerfest was written and directed by Jay Chandrasekhar of the comedy troupe Broken Lizard, and several other Broken Lizard members pop up in the film's cast, as do Will Forte, Mo'nique, Cloris Leachman, and Jürgen Prochnow. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Sick "Quarterback" Vick – Tried to get away with it! (rhyming animal cruelty) Satire
Michael Vick had a great quarterback career. Unfortunately he steered in the wrong direction and got caught in an illegal and brutal arena of pit bull dogfighting. The writing was on the wall that it would be Vick's downfall.
It was in summer of 2007 that the Atlanta Falcons suspended Michael Vick after he admittedly stashed the cash from a dog-fighting ring held in the backyard of his Virginia property where blood stains were found around the grounds.
The first thing that comes to mind is anyone who abuses or kills an animal must be mentally ill. So what kind of a guy is Michael? He's a powerful towering individual who has plenty of money and fame. Then why did he get involved in this dog-fighting game? I believe Vick thought he could get away with it. He certainly wasn't making a lot of money from dog fighting. In the end, Vick's dishonesty cost him everything.
Michael Vick was sentenced to 23 months, spending approximately 19 months in federal prison with a probation obligation to speak or teach "at-risk" kids around the country on animal cruelty and brutality. Is this enough of a penalty for a dog's suffering? What about the plight of other dogs that were killed because they failed to fight? Dogs have a right to live their life. They're man's best friend to the end.
Dogs barked, growled and snarled. If animals could only talk or squawk they would tell their tales of sheer hell.
Of course Michael Vick could be reinstated into the NFL after serving prison time if he showed remorse.
On August 13, 2009 the Philadelphia Eagles spread their wings. Michael Vick was picked as a home team player with a one-year contract because of his great quarterback tricks, but can he lick the shame over the dogs that were killed and maimed? It's just insane to think that "Sick Vick" has "learned a lesson" even after his confession.
Well, people make mistakes and should be forgiven. Vick served his time in a federal prison. I'm not going into racism or that Vick did not know any better because of his upbringing. These poor doggies were treated inhumanely. Let's not compare the killing of pigs and other poultry to house pets.
This all boils down to if the youth of this country is served by the words of Michael Vick, then we should not continue to keep beating up this tragedy with a wooden stick.
I am not here to bitch about Vick, only stating some of the facts on his cruel inhumane treatment of animals who were abused and killed. The disgrace and shame may overpower Vick's fame. This is what Michael Vick will have to live with.
And they say, "Crime Does Not Pay." I totally disagree. See Michael Vick's upcoming BET reality show, "The Michael Vick Project." Hey, this guy is gonna roll in dough. Whataya know the show did not do that well. It opened on February 2nd with over a million viewers and then fell to over 700,000 for the season finale. Vick said he turned down a second season on BET as it wasn't that fascinating.
There's a new twist to Michael Vick's animal cruelty. Vick's teammates applaud him for talking to kids about his mistakes with a special "Ed Block Courage Award" which PETA and protesters deplore. It's definitely not appropriate to award Vick such an achievement.
Nude pics of Michael Vick? Playgirl wants Vick to strip. The magazine will be profiting from Vick's nudity while PETA gets a million dollar donation toward animal cruelty. We'll have to wait and see if Vick strips.
On June 25, 2010 Virginia Beach police investigate a shooting one block from a nightclub where Michael Vick celebrated his "30th" birthday party. Prosecutors want to file charges, but victim is not cooperating. Vick who is still on probation has to stick to the rules after serving federal prison time for animal cruelty.
The Philadelphia Eagles who have commented on the shooting incident say it is definitely not true that they might be releasing Vick from his contract, but are waiting for a conclusion of the investigation. Now it seems that Vick was involved in some type of confrontation, but left before the shooting at his birthday party. Vick's co-defendant was shot at the party and convicted of dog fighting. NFL Commissioner Roger Goddell who plans to meet with the quarterback voiced his opinion that Vick should be more careful in making the right choices.
This time the deck is not stacked against Vick as he's been picked for the starting quarterback. 30-year-old Michael Vick shows the Philadelphia Eagles that he can lead their team to victory.
No sooner said than done, Mike "Quarterback" Vick has a cartilage injury after taking two hard hits and sandwiched. The famed football star might miss the next San Francisco game.
No more shit from Vick. It looks like his fans have forgiven him. Man, he's working as hard as he can. Michael Vick turned things around with his two feet on the ground. Since leaving prison, he's determined to win.
Now Vick would like to get a dog for a pet. Animal rights group PETA is very upset. They want him banned from owning a dog for life especially after his dog fighting. Under probation conditions Michael Vick will be allowed to buy, own or sell dogs in "2012″ as long as the quarterback proves he followed their rules. President Obama does not want to see Vick banned. Give him a second chance. Tucker Carlson animal-rights activist and conservative commentator for Fox News disagrees with Obama's reasoning.

Recommended Accident Solicitors
Having received the settlement cheque on Saturday I
thought I
should contact you to thank you for the highly successful work you've
put in on my behalf.
My experience of Bartletts in general, and you in particular, has been excellent throughout; you've kept me informed at every stage, avoided blinding me with legalese, and arranged medical opinions and consultations with first-class efficiency. More importantly, you've been helpful and understanding when difficulties at my end have prevented me being as efficient in responding as you are!
As you know, I was quite happy with the original offer made by the other party. So happiness turned to delight when you decided to push a little harder and achieved an increase of more than 50%. Thank you again, you've done an outstanding job.
Jem Shaw
I am writing to thank you for the cheque in the sum
of £2,700 in final settlement of my claim.
I would also like to add that I would always use your firm and recommend friends and family too, because the standard of service I received from Mr Rossiter was excellent. He kept me informed at all times as to what was happening and the way the case was handled was dealt with very professionally.
Malcolm Huggold
I am very satisfied with the settlement of my claim,
considering the complexity as it was concerned with working conditions.
Thank you, I would have no hesitation in recommending your firm.
Mr Wilson
May I take this opportunity of thanking your firm, for the quick result of my claim. I know sometimes the claims can take ages, but thanks to a very efficient Mr Smith it is now settled. Mr Smith has been most helpful whenever I have rung the firm with any queries.
Duncan Rodgers
I am writing to say that I received excellent service
from your firm.
This was from reception which was always answered the telephone promptly. Miss Smith I found forthright and very thorough but caring as well. I would not hesitate to recommend your firm to relatives or friends or anyone who need a good law firm.
Ms Rowe
I cannot tell you how excited I was to first have a
phone call from yourself, and then a letter, confirming a Final
Settlement of £7,000 for my accident. I know how hard you
have worked
over the past 2.5 years, and I really appreciate this.
You can not imagine what this means to my wife and myself. Our daughter and son-in-law said they were thinking of having a cruise next year and could not afford to go, well now they can, because of what you have achieved for me.
If I hear of someone who has had an accident your name and phone number will be the first thing I give them. Once again I can not thank you enough.
Mr McCord

Lord of the Rings Online is a great game. It has been met with much acclaim and has managed to establish itself in an ever-growing field of MMOs that reside in the shadow of World of Warcraft. The game, however, is not without its critics and detractors. However, what they cannot deny is that LotRO manages to wrap itself comfortably in Tolkien's lore of Middle-earth.
When first logging on to LotRO and presented with the choice of races, the one that arguably stands out the most would be the loveable (or loath-able) Hobbit. Elves, dwarves, men; been there done that. Hobbits, however, unique to Tolkien's imagination, offer a different experience. What I present to you is a guided tour through the first five levels of a Hobbit in Lord of the Rings Online. So, take your shoes off and get ready to blow some smoke rings. (Note: Massively.com does not condone nor endorse the smoking of anything ... real or fictional.)
Character Creation
So, we've already settled on a Hobbit. We'll choose a female Hobbit simply because, well, I'd rather not get into it. Let's just say, I like fury feet. Let's leave it at that. Now comes the time for class selection. The Hobbit has a few choices: Burglar, Guardian, Hunter and Minstrel. Personally, I have a hard time envisioning our Hobbit as a front-line tank or a sniper so I'm going to go cliché and choose Burglar. Burglars are capable solo players yet offer some great support in a Fellowship. With Class out of the way, now we can customize our little Hobbit. I hate to say it, but I think our Hobbit ended up being quite the cutie. This is starting to enter the realm of "freaky" and perhaps "perverse" but hey, it's the holidays! With that all set, let's enter Middle Earth!
An Ominous Beginning
We start in the post office, of all places, and we are promptly advised to leave and head down the road. So, stepping outside, we are quickly face to face with a black rider! Not 30 seconds into the game, unarmed, total noob (albeit a cute one) and we have a Nazgul on the road in front of us. Not a warming welcome. We are guided through a quick instance with Bounder Boffin where we kill some spiders and eventually encounter the rider again only to be saved by some skillful NPCs.
Now and for many of the levels to come, we will "Loot All" from everything we kill. Accumulating as much cash as we can isn't a bad idea and selling various spider legs, sticky webs, etc, will be helpful. Hopefully we'll never be in dire need of cash, but for now, let's pick everything up. We'll need the money to buy skills.
Ah, home at last!
After the brief instance, we find ourselves in Archet, the starting area for Hobbits and Men. We should also have dinged level 2. We can now head over to the Burlgar training and pick up "Disarm", which we should be able to afford. "Disarm" is a good skill that slows our enemy's attacks. We'll get into attacking flows in a minute, once we've been asked to leave town, that is. If you haven't gone the way of the Burglar, there are plenty of other good skills you can pick up at level 2 such as the Captain's "Devastating Blow" or the Champion's "Savage Strikes" which makes multiple attacks.
Our hero NPC, however, has gotten himself hurt in the cutscene and is sitting propped up in the middle of town. He proceeds to give us a few quests to talk to various people around town. His wounds are apparently serious enough to prohibit him from dragging his arse fifteen feet to do it himself but not severe enough to get anyone's attention. Last time I checked, he was still there, slowly bleeding out. Doesn't anyone see this? Anyway, a few short talk-quests later and we ding level 3. Wow. Piece of cake! We haven't even stepped outside and we're already half-way to level 5. Livin's easy when you're a Hobbit!
The not-so-wide world of Archet
At level 3 we'll finally get a quest to travel outside the walls of Archet. Granted, it is a mere fifty feet we have to walk to talk to a sheep farmer outside of town, but it's outside of town nonetheless. There is little you can do in the way of taking multiple quests. This one with the sheep farmer is a good start. The farmer is apparently having problems with wolves. He's a sheep farmer. That makes perfect sense an since we can see three or four wolves aimlessly roaming the hills around his farm, it seems very legitimate. So, after dispatching the requisite wolves, we return to the farmer. Now he wants us to track down and kill a Blackwold Spy. Huh? I understand what the wolves might want with his sheep but I'm not so clear on what threat the spies pose to his sheep. Maybe I don't want to know. Life in the wilderness is a lonely one.
So, based on nothing more than the word of a farmer a bit too attached to his livestock, we go out and kill us a spy. We're told to return to Archet (back that fifty feet) and finish this particular line of quests. We should be very close to, or have already dinged level 4. Level 4 is very important since it let's us purchase one of the more powerful skills in the Burglar's arsenal: "Sneak". This is the skill that makes us temporarily invisible to enemies allowing us to sneak up behind them and strike with "Surprise Strike," our first skill. "Burglar's Advantage" is also available for training at this point. We'll take that too. Level 4 is also very good to the Guardian giving them "Shield Swipe" a nice attack with both the shield and weapon. Minstrels feel the love too with the "Ballad of Swiftness" which not only increases your attack speed but does damage as well. Don't forget to "Loot All" from everything we kill and sell it in town. Mmm, blood money!
Helping out around town.
Apparently, the town Captain, Captain Brackenbrook, is now convinced that we're good for something and sends us to talk to his son at the Hunter's Lodge. Good. We'll take that but we won't leave town just yet. The town militia trainer, Constable Thistlewool, asks that we speak to the jailor, Ned Pruner. This is good since Ned will give us a quest to get some berries by the Hunter's Lodge. Sweet! A two-for-one! Constable Thistlewool has yet another one that asks us to talk to another farmer south of the Bronwe's Folly ruins. (Hopefully this farmer is not so attached to his sheep.) Ok, we'll take that one too because back by our wounded hero, Celadine Brandybuck wants us to collect some flowers that just happen to grow around the ruins. Another two-for-one! If we walk over to the Provisioner, Peg Pruner (coincidence?), she will give us a quest that asks us to collect boar's meat. Since the countryside of Archet is clogged with boars, and we have to wander to almost every corner anyway, we'll take this quest before we leave town. That should give us five quests to complete in one trip outside of town! The Constable Thistlewool will also give us a quest to kill more Blackwold Spies. We'll take it but hold off on this one for now. Let's get these easier ones out of the way first, level up to 5 and then tackle those vagabonds when we've got a level up on it.
We leave Archet and head south to the ruins to collect our flowers killing any boars along the way and maybe a wolf or two for good measure. After we get the flowers, we keep heading south until we meet the farmer. He'll ask us to return to Archet but we won't do it yet. We have more to do while we're out. He'll also offer a quest to kill a particularly vicious boar. We can take it, and if we run into him, we'll kill him just like we do every other living thing out here. We'll accept but we will do that one later since it is a level 5 quest. Head northeast from the farm to eventually end up at the Hunter's Lodge. Our berries are growing around the lodge so we'll collect those. There are more boars in this area as well so we will indiscriminately dispatch these threatening bovine as we go. The guy inside the lodge asks us to return to Archet anyway. We should now have five quests that are ready to be redeemed once we get to Archet!
After all this, we should easily ding level 5. On a side not, I apparently was a wolf short since my cute little Hobbit had 1,699 out of 1,700 required experience. No kidding! I was 1 measly point short. So, a quick run outside and the merciless slaughter of 1 wolf later, I'm level 5 and much happier.
Tying it all up.
All that is left for us to do is to tie up some of these loose ends and finish out our time here in lovely Archet. We can start with some pork chops. Remember that other farmer? The one who isn't so attached to his sheep? If you took the "Bloodtusk" quest from him, we can go ahead and finish that. If not, head back south past the ruins and take the quest from farmer Springley. Bloodtusk is just east of the farm near a good sized pond. Why this able bodied man and his two or three hired-hands are incapable of taking out one sour-tempered pig is beyond me. Dispatch the pig and head north to the Hunter's Lodge.
There are some Blackwold Spies between old Bloodtusk and the lodge so we can assassinate, sorry, eliminate, the six that Jon Brackenbrook asked us to. When we get to the lodge, however, we won't talk to Jon just yet. We have two more quick quests we can do before finishing up in Archet. Ann Granger, who is standing outside the lodge's front door apparently lost her purse ... er, satchel. Not only are they Blackwold Spies, they're apparently Blackwold Muggers too! Truly, these are dark times.
Atli Spider-Bane also has a favor to ask. He asks us to kill some spiders and find a missing hunter. Hold on a second. His name is "Atli Spider-Bane" as in "the Bane of Spiders" or someone who is known for his killing of spiders. He needs our help or is he just ridiculously lazy? Either way, we'll take the quest from this slacker and head out to do his dirty work. The Eastern Way is just across the bridge making Atli's apparently laziness even more profound.
Dispatching the spiders is a fairly easy task but we should be careful to avoid being overwhelmed by taking on more than one or two at a time. They are fairly weak but unless we can heal ourselves quickly, we could find ourselves short on health and surrounded by large, bloodthirsty arachnids. Once that is done, we can head back and finish the quest by talking to Atli. Then, we head southeast to the ruins that are crawling with Blackwold Spies. Ann needs her purse.
We must tread carefully in this area since these spies will rally each other and we could be on the wrong end of three or four spies whacking away at us. If we proceed slowly, it shouldn't be a problem. Ann's purse, sorry, satchel, is not far inside the entrance on some crates. We can snag it quickly and head back to the lodge and return it to Ann.
Do you smell something burning?
With all these tied up, we can now talk to Jon Brackenbrook inside the lodge and take the Archet instance. The instance starts with us fighting our way into Archet, which is now in flames, a most unfortunate change of scenery. Once inside, we'll battle the traitor Calder Cob and his thugs. The Pruners have been pruned and hobbits lay strewn about, turned pincushions by fur bikini wearing Blackwold archers. As far as intro instances go, this one is pretty morbid.
A few thugs later and, lo and behold, Amdir is still alive. He's still bleeding too. Man, that's a really slow bleed. We put out some fires and the man gets up and runs to the next area where he is brought down by some requisite evildoer names Eogan. Lovely. Maybe he should have just stayed there and kept bleeding. We dispatch a few more spies and then take it to Eogan. He falls easily but then gets up again. Faker! He retreats but it looks like we're done here. A quick chat with Mundo Sackville-Baggins and Celadine Brandybuck and we're done with this instance and let loose in the open Shire.
A good ending to a good story.
As a Hobbit, we find ourselves standing in Little Delving standing in front of Mundo again, who is no longer cowering like a schoolgirl. Talking with him officially finished the instance and gives us our "Map Home". If you are playing the race of Man, you'll find yourself back in an uninstanced version of Archet with new quests to complete, boars to slaughter, and sheep to protect.
All in all, Archet is a nice romp through the Shire countryside. The quests are decent and the area is small enough to make completing those quests relatively easy. If you haven't played a Hobbit or Man in Archet, I'd suggest that you take the trip. The entire experience, which took us all the way to level 6, just like it should, logged only a few short hours and I was taking my time admiring the countryside and my cute, little Hobbit. Is this what they mean when they talk about emotional attachment to avatars? Well, with any luck we'll see our Hobbit jogging through the Shire soon.
Happy hunting.

Sunday BBQ: Savory Tofu-on-a-Stick
Like us on Facebook
When I'm in the mood for a light meal, I look for flavorful vegetarian options. These grilled tofu sticks — a play on the traditional corn dog — are the perfect alternative.
To give them a spicy kick, the tofu sticks are marinated overnight in a sweet-hot mustard. They're grilled, rather than deep-fried, like most corn dogs, so they're actually good for you.
If you are not a fan of tofu, you could substitute something else. Try marinating tempeh or portobello mushrooms. To get the recipe,

There have been studies but I don't think there is more concern over the fake soy meat stuff because it's all processed. Soy protein in moderation is OK. I eat a fair amount of soy even though with my family medical history I'm almost guaranteed to have breast cancer. I'm pretty comfortable eating stuff like tofu, tempeh, edamame, but I really try to limit the processed stuff. Asian countries where soy is eaten as a regular part of their diet have a lower rate of breast cancer. Of course, they are eating it in a more natural state. Gorging yourself on a package of veggie soy sausage everyday for years = bad idea. Replacing a corn dog with a tofu-on-a-stick = good idea. http://www.vegetarian-nutrition.info/vn/soy_breast_cancer.php

Michael Barrett can hardly believe that one year ago, he held Piper in his hands at Muncie's Animal Rescue Fund (ARF). Barrett has not let the negative news or stigmas surrounding the pit bull breed stop him from training his year-old English Staffordshire bull terrier to be a therapy dog.
"She loves life. She loves people." Barrett said. "I knew the day I saw her at ARF she had the temperament to please."
He also believes she is grateful for a second chance at life. If her litter had not been rescued at ARF, they could have been euthanized at the Muncie Animal Shelter. ...

1. Spiral notebooks.
Hurts the side of your hand. The worst are the five-subject with the extra big rings.
2. Writing in a three-ring binder.
You have to do that thing where you fit your hand between the top two, then eventually have to pick it up and fit it in between the bottom two.
3. Only one gross lefty glove in gym class.
The handsweat of a thousand lefties before you.
4. Only two pairs of the green lefty scissors in class, three lefty kids.
Scrambling through the scissors to find the ones with the green rubber handles, only to see they're already all gone.
5. Ballpoint pens don't work as well because you're pushing, not pulling the ball.
The ink will never flow as well for lefties, so our pens stop up more.
6. Ink all over the side of your hand.
7. Bonking elbows with a righty at the dinner table.
8. On the iPad Kindle app, the left side is back page.
This is really annoying — if you prefer to hold it in your left hand, you have to move your hand all the way to the other side to tap. On a real Kindle, page forward is on both sides, thankfully.
9. Driver's cup holder is for the right hand.
So you have to hold your cup with your right hand.
10. Number pad is on the right-hand side of keyboard.
11. Dying sooner, so becoming a zombie sooner.

College lecture hall desks with postage-stamp sizes desks. You have to twist your back and hold up your arm to use.
13. Measuring cups show you the stupid metric side.
The cups/ounces side is for the righties. You have to do that thing where you twist your whole arm around to be able to read ounces.

Mokoka, Kalmer show good formComment on this story
Olympic marathon hopefuls Stephen Mokoka and Rene Kalmer were in top form on Saturday, smashing the course records at a road race in Pretoria.
Mokoka, who won the 10km title at the BestMed Tuks race last year, held off second-placed Desmond Mokgubu to clinch the half-marathon crown in one hour, four minutes and 35 seconds (1:04:35).
Mokgobu crossed the line in 1:04:42 and Lucky Mohale was third in 1:04:59.
Mokoka was expected to compete in the SA Cross Country Trials in Potchefstroom later in the afternoon.
Kalmer, meanwhile, set a new mark of 1:13:09 to win the women's race, shaving more than a minute off the previous record.
Louisa Leballo was second in 1:19:58 and Kim Laxton took third in 1:22:50.
The fastest men's and women's qualifiers with two months left before the deadline, Mokoka, who clocked 2:10:29 in Shanghai in December, and Kalmer, who set a personal best of 2:29:59 in Yokohama in November, are virtually assured of selection for the SA marathon team at the London Games.
Another Olympic hopeful, Irvette van Blerk, who will go in search of the qualifying time at the London Marathon in April, was beaten by more than half a minute in the women's 10km race in Pretoria.
Zimbabwe's Rutendo Nyahora defended her title and broke her own record, crossing the line in 34:34, with Van Blerk second in 35:12.
Gladwin Mzazi also set a record in the men's 10km category, finishing well clear of second-placed Sibusiso Nzima in 29:18. – Sapa

After airing a repeat last week, "Hawaii Five-0" returned to the air Monday with a new episode and a commanding ratings victory for the hour.
"Five-0" drew 10.51 million viewers, well ahead of ABC's "Castle," which drew 7.73 million viewers, according to Nielsen ratings released by CBS. On NBC, "Chase" drew 4.99 million viewers.
The cop drama's last two new episodes — Nov. 15 and 22 — also won the timeslot when they aired.
"Five-0" will air a new episode next week, but CBS press material currently notes that the network will air repeat episodes on Dec. 20 and 27.

Class Matters: Our Interview With Forge Designer Tim Alvis
GF: What about the ability to toggle back and forth between third person and first person POV? Will something like that will be in the final version?
The game somewhat behaves like a first person game right now, it just happens to have a third person POV. But as far as mechanics of how the camera works, there's no free-roam for the camera, it can't just spin around or move separately from your character, so it's almost like the camera out of your eyes. Going first person though, probably not at retail. Most of that has to do with getting the time and resources necessary to animate every character and ability from a first person perspective, because you can't reuse any of the assets you have. But certainly, as far as the game design goes, there's no limitation preventing us from going there at some point.
GF: What has fan-feedback said? Is it something they want?
Probably less than 5 requests since the game went playable, and I think that's in large part because of the way the game behaves like a FPS already. I think they also realize they're going to lose that situational awareness they get with that little bit of extra view behind the camera that you get currently. [With first person], your field of view is going to be entirely in front of you and you'll lose peripheral and behind. I imagine that by the time we get to a point we could implement it, we'd put it to a community poll. I don't know that the community will end up thinking that it's worth it, just because it would actually be a detriment in most combat situations. The only time it's really a benefit is if you're doing line-of-sight tasks, like going in and out of cover and aiming, whereas right now you're having to do some triangulation.
GF: What kind of features are players requesting the most, and can you talk about how player feedback is influencing development?
It's kind of a tightrope you have to walk very carefully. Opinions are so varied that anything that you do will squelch feedback in one area, and bring new feedback in from another. At the same time, if you hear the same comment repeatedly, even if you don't take 100% of the comment to heart, you have to take much of it seriously because there's something at the core we're missing. For instance, if users are consistently saying that it's tough to figure out what they're supposed to do in the game, you have an issue with accessibility. If they're consistently saying they don't feel like a particular feature is fun, then you at least have to look at it.
The point where you have to break off is if what they're requesting goes against the overall vision of what the gameplay should be. Sometimes you'll get feedback where somebody comes from a game they really like, and they want to make this game more like that game. That kind of feedback you have to be very careful with because there's a specific experience we're trying to build that goes after a market that just isn't being served at all. We don't want to become a Bloodlines Champions, we don't want to become a League of Legends, we don't want to be World of Warcraft Arenas. So it's always a matter of taking that feedback and finding nuggets of what is valid criticism, what are valid pointers, and running with that.
Some of the feedback that came in early happened when we put in block functionality. Our initial block was very simplistic; I don't know that it was intentionally simplistic so much that we were focused on other aspects of the game, and block didn't get the attention it deserved. So in one of the most recent patches we've worked on block to make it feel smooth and connected to how combat works. And a lot of feedback came in on the size of maps, and some of that is internal feedback as well, so our maps have grown consistently smaller, to help the flow and pace of combat.
It's been great to hear what people would like to customize, things you don't expect that they'd want to turn off, things we put in because they're a huge benefit to the players we polled early on. Some players just didn't like them, they want to do things, well, the hard way, they want to turn off the easy stuff. That feedback has been great in helping us figure out what we need to make toggleable game options. But for the most part, the feedback we've had has been on the periphery; they want more skins, they want more progression, they want more options in spectator mode, they want more gameplay modes. As for core gameplay, I'd say that the two most common things people have asked for have been more feedback on successful abilities, and making it easier for new users to jump in. We've taken both of those very seriously the last two releases.

The basketball hoops have had the rims removed at Fisk Park.
- Filed Under
No one likes to see everyone punished for the actions of the few.
And that appears to be what happened last summer when the Green Bay Police Department removed four basketball hoops at Fisk Park, 995 Dousman St., because of the unruly behavior of those congregating at the courts.
But when the actions of those few compromise safety for other park users, neighbors and police, who say they were at times outnumbered 10-1 during disturbances, then something needs to be done. ...
