Post subject: What Are You Running/Playing?
Savage Worlds
games are you currently running or playing in? Tell us a bit about them, be they official, licensed, or homebrew.
I just finished running a 25-episode (!!) playtest for
. The whole thing was sliding toward disaster, and the Fear Level reached 5. In the end, the heroes pulled out all the stops and snatched victory from the jaws of defeat (despite there being about 12 ways their plan could have gone awry). Amazing finale, and we should have a snazzy new product coming out of it to boot.
Next, I'm planning to run the boxed Chaosium campaign
Spawn of Azathoth
, using
Realms of Cthulhu
. I'll have a bit of converting to do, but I'm looking forward to that. It's one of my all-time favorites, but I've never run it past the opening chapter. Pretty psyched!
So, what's Savage in your neck of the woods right now?

Ended running a Hellfrost campaign (9 months long) in April.
Then played in a homebrew Weird Wars adventure trilogy.
Currently playing in a Pirates of The Spanish Main campaign (just started: only two sessions).

Sweet. Some of my best gaming memories ever are Ravenloft-centric. What an evil place.

A "Savage Ghostbusters" campaign, high on the wacky factor, though the PCs have collected most of the macguffins (or "plot coupons" as my wife calls them) and are destined for the final showdown against the Big Bad. Crossing streams may or may not be involved.
It's August, so time for me to do a few one-shots as playtests for the scenarios I'll be springing on people at Necronomicon (convention in October). One of them will be a "War of the Dead" scenario, which might springboard into doing a full-blown WotD campaign with my regular group, provided the players are enthusiastic about it.
I still hope to find time to write up some of the scenarios I did last year (especially the "Carnival of Madness" - 1920s horror scenario; PCs are performers, roustabouts, etc., in a traveling circus; that was a lot of fun, and played very differently each time).
After That:
I'm planning on starting up a "Wonderland No More" campaign, though deviating significantly from the "core" plot campaign, with more of a Victorian horror twist. I have some minis and scenery and handout projects that have been in the works for a while, though they keep getting pushed back because of various short-deadline projects that pop up. (Only so much time in the day, after all.)

I'm currently running two Savage Worlds games.
For my library-teens game, we're still plugging away hard at
Warlords of Aros
our homebrew Sword and Sorcery meets Rome meets Barsoom setting. Some of the kids have reached legendary status, which is great. They love it. We're really pushing to get this one wrapped by next summer. So much so we gave the kids a road map to finish the campaign. A roadmap they promptly detoured off. At this rate, the apocalypse is going to occur and no one will be there. Still, everyone is having a great time. Monday had 15 kids at the table.
When was the last time you ran SW for 15 players?
For our regular Friday night crew, I'm running
Solomon Kane
. We're presently finishing up the
Von Gottlieb Horror
before the PCs head off to Stuttgart to deal with some family issues. I had been working on a big city adventure for them to wrangle with, but since my wife and I are expecting in September, I may fast track them to the
Devil's Mistress
so that we can wrap the Old World leg of the plot point before going on hiatus for awhile. Cleaning up the rest of Europe will have to wait until my wife and I get more than 2 hours of sleep at a time.
Oh, and last weekend, while in Lubbock for my wife's high school reunion, I introduced the regular DnD group to SW with some stunning success. I've received word that Slipstream has been ordered and a game is being planned.
So that's what we're doing here.

Only SW that I'm running is using the Deadlands Reloaded rules with a campaign world that of my creation, inspired by both the Deadlands Reloaded world and from an episode of Dragon's Landing podcast.
Got a website for the campaign and so far I've been keeping up with each adventure that the players have been on. Deadwood Deacon is the campaign name and the link to the site is in my sig.

lately Necessary Evil has been our game. I've been stringing together alot of the Savage tales located in and around Southpoint to start. We are currently doing the Hydrobase mission which ties in nicely with one of the players origin stories. After that I'm going to jump into the Plot Point at episode 3.
This week, however, I got the chance to introduce someone new to SW. He said he'd prefer to try fantasy, and as my regular crew wasn't together, we played some of the Noble Deceit module. Success, he called me yesterday looking to buy the box set, another convert.
Besides that I have a Fantasy Grounds group that meets pretty regularly. There we do a rotating GM thing with whoever is the GM picking the system/adventure. We just played a one shot Call of Cthulhu adventure and might be doing some Daring Tales of the Space Lanes next.

I've got three Savage Worlds games on the go at the moment ...
An Evernight game that is somewhat on Hiatus, awaiting the availability of one particular player to make up the full party of 8. We're waiting to get everyone as the whole campaign is coming to an end now, and no-one want's to be 'missing out on the big bad'.
A Rippers game that was originally being run in the 'off weeks' of the Evernight game, and has now become the 'regular' Saturday night game. Information about that game can be found
for those that want to have a read. Feel free to comment on the talk pages and such if you're so inclined.
And, started last night, a Mid-Week Slipstream game with just a couple of players. One of whom created a race that are scared of cats (and by extension Lion Men). Finished the first plot point, and that particular character is
at the idea of having to go to Simba or insult a whole pride of Lion Men ... she's not sure which is worse ...

I'm about to start running
The Flood
for my new group (just moved to Boston). They're all new to Savage Worlds, and a couple of them are fairly inexperienced gamers, but I've had the most fun with games like that before. I'm really looking forward to hitting the trails.

I am running 50 Fathoms for a group that started as a D&D 4E group. We are all having a blast. They have only the barest hints of the larger campaign story yet, but they are having such a good time just sailing around and fighting pirates and trading cargo. After years of running heavily scripted, tightly plotted fantasy adventures, it is fun for me to just roll with what they choose and use the random encounter tables and such to just run the whole thing on the fly. Plus we just got a load of WizKids Pirates mini-ships for running sea battles, and those are just so cool.
I also have been running one shots at local game days, and soon I wlll be running the epic adventure The 8th Dwarf in Savage Worlds form at Pacificon. It started as a 4E game, which went very well, but attracted a lot of new players. I think SW is easier for new players to understand, so I've been converting everything over. I've been posting the conversions here:
Fortunately, I recently found more savages in my area, so I've actually had the chance to start up a Savage Suzerain: Noir Knights character and play in a demo one shot of Caledon Falls.
Good times!

There has been a thread on ENWorld about Greyhawk - between that and looking through Expedition to Castle Greyhawk, I have some very Olde Schoole thoughts these days.

Talk about old school... we're doing The Temple of Elemental Evil starting with the very first module in the town of Hommlet... We're doing it as a 2nd Ed game though, not a conversion to another system.

Planning to close it soon so we can start 'The Flood'.

Congress to ban jealous-spouse trackers?
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 12/25/2012 @ 12:40 pm In Politics,U.S. | No Comments
(DAILYMAIL) — Mobile phone apps which allow wives and husbands to spy on their spouses by monitoring their whereabouts as well as their calls and text messages will be banned under a new law to be put before congress.
Software companies are currently able to sell so-called cyberstalking apps that operate secretly on cellphones thanks to a loophole in current laws.
Apps such Retina Software's SpouseSpy or ePhoneTracker, which sell for around $50 online, have become increasingly popular among jealous wives or husbands, but there are concerns they could be encouraging stalking and domestic violence.

The Afghan War Diary (AWD for short) consists of messages from several important US military communications systems. The messaging systems have changed over time; as such reporting standards and message format have changed as well. This reading guide tries to provide some helpful hints on interpretation and understanding of the messages contained in the AWD.
Most of the messages follow a pre-set structure that is designed to make automated processing of the contents easier. It is best to think of the messages in the terms of an overall collective logbook of the Afghan war. The AWD contains the relevant events, occurrences and intelligence experiences of the military, shared among many recipients. The basic idea is that all the messages taken together should provide a full picture of a days important events, intelligence, warnings, and other statistics. Each unit, outpost, convoy, or other military action generates report about relevant daily events. The range of topics is rather wide: Improvised Explosives Devices encountered, offensive operations, taking enemy fire, engagement with possible hostile forces, talking with village elders, numbers of wounded, dead, and detained, kidnappings, broader intelligence information and explicit threat warnings from intercepted radio communications, local informers or the afghan police. It also includes day to day complaints about lack of equipment and supplies.
The description of events in the messages is often rather short and terse. To grasp the reporting style, it is helpful to understand the conditions under which the messages are composed and sent. Often they come from field units who have been under fire or under other stressful conditions all day and see the report-writing as nasty paperwork, that needs to be completed with little apparent benefit to expect. So the reporting is kept to the necessary minimum, with as little type-work as possible. The field units also need to expect questions from higher up or disciplinary measures for events recorded in the messages, so they will tend to gloss over violations of rules of engagement and other problematic behavior; the reports are often detailed when discussing actions or interactions by enemy forces. Once it is in the AWD messages, it is officially part of the record - it is subject to analysis and scrutiny. The truthfulness and completeness especially of descriptions of events must always be carefully considered. Circumstances that completely change the meaning of an reported event may have been omitted.
The reports need to answer the critical questions: Who, When, Where, What, With whom, by what Means and Why. The AWD messages are not addressed to individuals but to groups of recipients that are fulfilling certain functions, such as duty officers in a certain region. The systems where the messages originate perform distribution based on criteria like region, classification level and other information. The goal of distribution is to provide those with access and the need to know, all of the information that relevant to their duties. In practice, this seems to be working imperfectly. The messages contain geo-location information in the forms of latitude-longitude, military grid coordinates and region.
The messages contain a large number of abbreviations that are essential to understanding its contents. When browsing through the messages, underlined abbreviations pop up an little explanation, when the mouse is hovering over it. The meanings and use of some shorthands have changed over time, others are sometimes ambiguous or have several meanings that are used depending on context, region or reporting unit. If you discover the meaning of a so far unresolved acronym or abbreviations, or if you have corrections, please submit them to email@example.com.
An especially helpful reference to names of military units and task-forces and their respective responsibilities can be found at http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/enduring-freedom.htm
The site also contains a list of bases, airfields http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/afghanistan.htm Location names are also often shortened to three-character acronyms.
Messages may contain date and time information. Dates are mostly presented in either US numeric form (Year-Month-Day, e.g. 2009-09-04) or various Euro-style shorthands (Day-Month-Year, e.g. 2 Jan 04 or 02-Jan-04 or 2jan04 etc.).
Times are frequently noted with a time-zone identifier behind the time, e.g. "09:32Z". Most common are Z (Zulu Time, aka. UTC time zone), D (Delta Time, aka. UTC + 4 hours) and B (Bravo Time, aka UTC + 2 hours). A full list off time zones can be found here: http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/military/
Other times are noted without any time zone identifier at all. The Afghanistan time zone is AFT (UTC + 4:30), which may complicate things further if you are looking up messages based on local time.
Finding messages relating to known events may be complicated by date and time zone shifting; if the event is in the night or early morning, it may cause a report to appear to be be misfiled. It is advisable to always look through messages before and on the proceeding day for any event.
David Leigh, the Guardian's investigations editor, explains the online tools they have created to help you understand the secret US military files on the war in Afghanistan: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/datablog/video/2010/jul/25/afghanistan-war-logs-video-tutorial

Have you ever looked at a face you thought you knew as well as your own and realised, suddenly, that you couldn't look away? Or looked into the eyes of someone brand new and thought Oh, there you are? Love can hit you like a fist or comfort you like a caressing hand, but it is never weak, or placid, and in the darkest moments there is beauty to be found, in love, in loss, in living connected to another person, or aching for a connection that's been lost.

Rance successfully bonds with his new betas not a moment too soon, because the visions of his alpha-mate come fast and furious. But Paul is a human, and not just any human, he's the brother of the woman that Terence and Samson inadvertently helped kidnap a couple months ago. Convincing his newly bonded betas that the man who makes up the fourth to their pride's inner circle is so close may be the easy part, because they'll also need to persuade Ben to let the three cougars onto the wolf's territory to meet and court the human. And if they somehow manage that, they'll need to convince Paul, a widower with a three-year-old son, that there really are paranormal creatures in the world and that he's the mate of three male cougar shifters. But even if the human accepts them, will Rance's cougar pride?

1.1. ACE will take appropriate measures to ensure that its students, faculty and staff are aware of
copyright laws, regulations and agreements and can act responsibly as they use information
that is owned by others in the course of teaching, learning, research or administration of the
1.2. All members of the ACE community are required to comply with copyright laws. Federal
copyright laws provide valuable protection to the authors of original works, and ACE expects all
members of the ACE community to respect those rights. Copyright laws also permit users of
copyrighted works to make fair use of copyrighted materials under some limited circumstances.
ACE works to make fair use of copyrighted materials under some limited circumstances.
1.3. ACE is committed to fully support the fair use of copyrighted works by the ACE community
under the provisions of applicable laws. The ACE community is expected to have knowledge of,
and make reasonable application of, the four factors of fair use.
1.4. Failure to comply with copyright laws and to act in good faith in the fair use of copyrighted
materials will result in an ACE community member assuming liability for his or her actions and
may result in disciplinary action.
2. Copyright Protections and Fair Use Principles
To help members of the ACE community understand and comply with copyright laws, this policy
summarizes basic principles of copyright law including the application of the fair use balancing
test. A fair use of a copyrighted work depends upon a specific determination based upon the
circumstances of the use.
2.1. Principle 1: The copyright owner has important and exclusive rights. Copyright law protects
original works such as films, writings, music and visual arts by giving the copyright owner a set
of exclusive rights in that work. These rights include the right to distribute, copy, adapt,
perform, display and create derivative or collected works. In general, any use of copyrighted
materials requires permission from and maybe payment of royalties to the copyright owner
unless the use falls within a fair use exemption.
2.2. Principle 2: ACE community members must make good faith efforts to understand the
fundamentals of copyright laws and the reasonable application of fair use. When ACE
community members plan to use a copyrighted work in their teaching or research, they must
examine the specifics of their use within the context of the law in order to determine whether
they should seek permission for the use or depend upon a fair use exemption.
2.3. Principle 3: A proper determination of fair use requires applying the following four factors:
2.4. Principle 4: Nonprofit educational purposes are generally favored in the application of the four
factors of fair use, but an educational use does not by itself make the use a "fair use." The
educational purpose of ACE will usually weight the first of the four factors in favor of fair use.
However, an educational use does not mean that the use is, by that factor alone, a fair use. All
four factors must be weighed in making that decision.
2.5. Principle 5: By acting responsibly and making considered decisions, you can limit your potential
liability. Congress provides significant protection for educators. Educators must hold a
reasonable and good faith belief that their activities are fair use in light of the four factors.
Educators are advised to carefully document their application of the four factors of fair use to
their specific use in order to demonstrate that the activities were done in good faith.
3. Obtaining Copyright Permission
3.1. To the extent that a member of the ACE community does not think their use of copyrighted
material would fall under a fair use exemption, the ACE community member is responsible for
obtaining or arranging to obtain copyright permission. Please submit requests for permissions
at least six weeks before the material is needed to the Director of the ACE Library as the
process can be slow, especially when dealing directly with a publisher. If permission is denied,
or cannot be obtained in time, alternate material must be found.
Additional information about copyright and links are available on the ACE library website.

Apologies for the lack of updates recently, folks, as I've been in a persistent battle with our weekend guerrilla team, who managed to whittle me down and is now taking over full control of the Weekly Webcomic Wrapup. I made a deal that would keep the McElroy Empire out of here forever ... but then they altered the deal. I can only pray they don't alter it further.
I've been given the opportunity to make a final statement, which I intend to do so with bullet points:
- In the world of webcomics, this is more often than not true. For better and for worse.
- Is it Funny Today? is worth checking out to see what the Internet Hivemind finds
- The 2008 Webcomic Holiday Postcard Fundraiser is now live and worth your consideration. Proceeds go to Child's Play Charity.
- Favorite webcomic? I love Digital Unrest and its geeky science jokes.
Ball and Stick (Digital Unrest)
Unavoidable Square tax (MNC)
A Penetrating Look (Penny Arcade)
Town Folks (Brawl in the Family)
Of bar bets and pub puns (Sidescroller)
Is that a tear? (GameMarks)
Crossover (CAD)
Who Reviews the Reviewers? (2P Start)
Burn me once, shame ... (Dueling Analogs)

Update: Just so we're clear, I'm not leaving Joystiq. I'm just abandoning the webcomic wrapup to ultimate ruin and decay.

Suffering Can Be Fruitful, Says Benedict XVI
Comments on Psalm 125(126)
| 1229 hits
CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy, AUG. 17, 2005 (Zenit.org).- The bearing of suffering can bring much fruitfulness and life, says Benedict XVI.
On the eve of his trip to World Youth Day, the Pope dedicated today's general audience to talk about Psalm 125(126), part of an ongoing series of commentaries about the biblical passages that make up vespers, the Church's evening prayer.
The Pope reflected on the passage, "Those who sow in tears will reap with cries of joy," which was recited by Israelites when they felt threatened or afraid.
"Under the weight of work, at times one's face is streaked with tears," the Holy Father told the crowd gathered in the patio of the papal summer residence of Castel Gandolfo. "One sows with toil which might end in futility and failure. But when there is an abundant and joyful harvest, one discovers that the distress was fruitful."
According to the Bishop of Rome, "[I]n this verse of the psalm is condensed the great lesson on the mystery of the fruitfulness and life that suffering can contain. As Jesus said on the approach of his passion and death: 'Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit.'"
Times of trial
This was the phrase Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (the future Benedict XVI) chose as the theme for the meditations of the Way of the Cross, held in the Colosseum last Good Friday, which he wrote at Pope John Paul II's request.
Benedict XVI proposed Psalm 125(126) to his listeners as "a song of hope, to which recourse should be taken in times of trial, fear, external menace and internal oppression."
At the same time, he said, it can become "a more general appeal to live one's days and fulfill one's choices in an atmosphere of fidelity. Perseverance in the good, even if misunderstood and opposed, in the end always leads to light, fruitfulness and peace."
Previous papal commentaries on the psalms and canticles that make up vespers are posted in the Wednesday's Audience section (www.zenit.org/english/audience) of ZENIT's Web page.

The request, which stops about $160 million in allocated funds for all state agencies, freezes about 3 percent of the funds for state universities and colleges. The cut comes six months after the governor signed a budget that reduced funding for the State System by 18 percent.
"We are absolutely and unequivocally opposed to this request," said Debra Cornelius, former president of the Shippensburg University Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Facilities and a professor of sociology at the school. "This request shows the governor's lack of respect for the hard-working families of Pennsylvania. It really is cheating the students and their families out of the high quality education they deserve."
Larger class sizes and a reduction in student services are just some of the results Cornelius said have occurred as a result of the June budget cuts.
Tuition at all 14 universities in the state system has already increased by 7.5 percent. According to APSCUF, the average state graduate finishes college with more than $23,000 in student loan debt, and that number is almost guaranteed to increase, given the latest freeze.
"If the State System complies with the governor's request, the total loss to our universities will be over $112 million," said Dr. Steve Hicks, president of the state university faculty union.
Corbett has also frozen more than $21 million from the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency, an organization that provides grants and loans to students. The system's board of governors can reject the governor's request, something that Cornelius said she is hoping for.
"If things continue the way they are, I see nothing good coming of this," she said. "(The freeze) is going to result in everyone being frustrated."
Cornelius said if the request is honored, she foresees a reduction in staff, consolidation of departments and additional cutting of student services at the university.
"We want to maintain the quality education that we have always provided," she said. "Our administration has tried very hard to avoid hurting the workers and students of Shippensburg University, but at some point there's no wiggle room."

This archived review dates from 2007 or earlier. Use the links or the 'SEARCH' box to the right to find more recent reviews.*** Vietnam Kitchen
5339 Mitscher Ave.
(502) 363-5154
Primarily serving Louisville's South End Vietnamese-American community, this spot in the old Iroquois Manor Shopping Center just off South Third Street near Iroquois Park is well worth the discovery for the rest of us Americans.
The chef here goes beyond the ordinary, preparing dishes of unusual subtlety and flavor; whether I go with standards like pho (large, generous portions of Vietnamese soup and noodles with meat or fish) or try something more exotic, I have yet to be disappointed with the quality of the food or service at Vietnam Kitchen.
Originally very small and spartan, it recently remodeled and expanded into additional space in its shopping-center storefront and now boasts a fairly large and comfortable dining room. With prices that make it hard to spend more than $20 for a very filling lunch for two, it's well worth a trip to the South End. $

I think it's hilarious, but I think it would lose its touch/purpose if it left Nerdfighteria.
i use it as a thing
Within nerdfighteria, I think it could be a thing. Personally, I say it all the time just to confuse normal people. (Of course, then I explain it to them, because that's the awesome thing to do, but still...)
and yet another oportunity to plug the book Frindle as it speaks to this sort of process. that being said, Hank has a point, the fact that we want it to become a thing can build to it becoming a thing, but it can meet resistance that other terms don't run into. so i don't know
I kind of like it as kind of an identifier of Nerdfighters. Among Nerdfighters, yes I think it could go (or has already gone) big. However, I don't know if it will every be widely excepted worldwide.
yes i use it all the time, and then people look at me like....What? and then i explain and then they're like...you're a nerd! and i'm like yeah...i know
I kind of like it not being a thing :p.
yes because we wil make it a thing!
Absolutely. How could you question such a fact? ;)
My friend Kyle and I are trying to get it to catch on in our school. We are planting the seeds in our AP Chemistry class.
haha I use this all the time as well, since I prefer not to curse. I love using it as kind of an inside joke among my nerdfighter friends as well tehe. It'd be kinda cool if it became a thing, though
Although, it should, I seriously doubt that it ever will become widely used. It's a sad reality.

Belly Laugh? A New Song Pokes Fun At Preggos
Enter dynamic musical comedy duo Garfunkel & Oates, rolling their eyes so you don't have to. The hilarious Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci are known for taking the things everyone's thinking, but nobody's saying and putting them to music. In their latest hit, the comics talk about those certain types of expectant moms that cross the line from glowing to gloating. After all, "you're just giving birth now — you're not Mother Earth now."
Take a peek at the official video and see what you think. Just because you're bloated, exhausted, pukey, and about to push a person out of your body doesn't mean you can't take a joke, right? (MSN)

During lunch today I have my new farrier trim Cobalt for the first time. I've been working with Cobalt diligently on his feet. I pick them up and hold them like a farrier would, hold them for long periods of time... ect. But when the farrier came to do his feet he was rotten! He kept tryign to dance away, and was pulling his feet away... a 20 min trim took 2x as long. Cobalt has a tendency to do this with anyone new working with him and its extremely frustrating.
New training plan:
Most of the time when I work w/ him I tie him up, but now I think I'll have my bf hold him for me and visa versa, I'll hold and he can pick them up.
I'm just at a loss if this doesn't work because he doesn't really misbehave with me and most of the time not with my bf. If this doesn't work, anyone else have any suggestions?

New red phone box presented in Emmendingen
September 30, 2014 in News 2013, News 2014 by Administrator
A fantastic weekend was had by all as the Newark Twinning Association celebrated 30 years of twinning with our German friends in Emmendingen.
The three day trips saw several events taking place, including the unveiling of the new red phone box, the original was given to Emmendingen as a gift at the start of our friendship, but was damaged last year in a storm.
Upon arrival in Germany, and our twin town, we were warmly welcomed with local beer and wine at the Stinehalle before heading to our respective host families.
Friday saw us visit the beautiful town of Breisach, and the stunning Minster, and the views over the River Rhine.
The afternoon saw us visit the beautiful vineyards of the Kaiserstuhl area of the Black Forest, where we took a tractor (yes, a tractor!) up to the hilltop setting of our lunch among the vines. Many of us tried several glasses of the local wines – all of which are highly recommended!
The area is well known for its views of Germany, France and Switzerland, along with the wine. Many visitors decided to walk up the hill among the vines, and where offered a history of the vines.
The evening saw the two towns join together for a convivial evening in the Altdorhalle, with a local comedian and bands performing for host families, and Newark guests alike. The evening went down a storm, with plenty of laughs and stunning food.
The official part of the weekend saw the unveiling of the new red phonebox, donated by X2 Connect of Newark, who renovated the old box which originally stood on Castlegate in Newark.
The box was first used by Mayor of Newark Tom Bickley, Twinning Chairman Rita Crowe and Oberburgermeister of Emmendingen Stefan Schlatterer, who entered the phonebox to great fan fair by the Hachberger Herolde, who then processed the official party to the towns market square.
A stage was then set for Newark Operatic singers Matt Stephenson and Jo Dewberry, who performed solo and duet songs from the shows, ahead of the Newark Operatic grand performance later the same evening.
The afternoon saw the group enjoy the local area, and free time before the official evening ceremony, which was opened by a local band formed of school children who performed an amazing set of songs as part of the Crazy Marquis band.
After the British and German national anthems Oberburgermeister Mr Schlatterer opened the ceremony by saying how much the friendship between the towns has grown in the 31 years Newark and Emmendingen have been twinned; "I have been able to live to see this twinning since my early youth, and to have engaged in the twinning committees who have filled this society with life and who have made it possible for so many people from Emmendingen and Newark to meet and make friends."
Before the signing of the resigning of the twinning charters between the towns, which was witnesses by the Deputy Mayor of Sandomierz and Mayor of Six-Four-Le-Plague in France, Mayor of Newark Tom Bickley mentioned who strong the links where, and the importance of the friendship between the two towns. He also presented a violin, created at the Newark International Violin School as a gift to Emmendingen from Newark.
The evening and weekend was well rounded off by the performances of songs from the shows by the Newark Operatic, who sang songs from "Me and My Girl", "The King and I" and "Les Mis".
Chairman of the Newark Twinning Association Rita Crowe commented; "It was a full programme. Our thanks go to all those in Emmendingen who organised the weekend and to the host families."

Great Shirt, Just what the doctor ordered.
I do water aerobics at a local pool everyday. I had a small basal cancer (non malignant) removed from my forearm last week. The doctor told me to get a surf shirt, long sleeved, to cover my back and arms. I had bought my aerobics equipment from Swim Outlet, so I went to them and ordered two of these shirts. They promptly arrived yesterday, and I wore one this morning for my water workout. The shirt is most comfortable, very flexible, does not cling, and make the movements in the water easy. It also covers my arms and back. Excellent product, Two of my water aerobic classmates will be buying them also on my recommendation.
Escondido, CA
Fit: Feels true to size
Great shirt, great fit
This shirt fit close to the skin, but was not restrictive, tight, or binding. I wore this to go rafting in Idaho. It prevented sun burn, rash from the PFD, and kept my body temperature comfortable. I was never hot or cold in the shirt. Several guys on the trip commented that they wished they'd worn one. I wear a LG Tshirt and bought LG.

Excellent rashie
Sleeves fit perfectly. I got a large and the fit was just as advertised...relaxed....nice length so my crack wasn't showing most of the time.

Wow! Nice fit. Just like me with a little room and stretch. I wish all my shirts fit like this. It should dry very quickly.
guam swimmer
I got this shirt in yellow, the color its great, but its a relaxed fit! didn't read that when I ordered so I returned, for surfing I like the tight fit.
Delray Beach, FL
Nice coverage
I wanted the shirt to fit snug enough not to billow out when I was actually swimming but not be so tight that I felt constricted, I am one of those in between sizes (large or medium) that trying a shirt on before purchasing is usually a good idea. I am 5"10", have a 42" chest and wear size 32 Levis with really broad shoulders and monkey man arms. I read the reviews and took a chance on the medium size for this shirt. Well it fits just a tad small (and I don't know how much bigger a large would be but I imagine it would be to large). It's not to small to look ridiculous or seriously bind me up - the sleeves come down to just above the wrists and the shoulders are a tad tight but the rest of the shirt fits just right. It does provide great sun protection which is why I bought it. The fabric is smooth and easy on the skin, the color is great and the brand isn't screaming out (I'm not a big fan of in your face branding logos). I did swim in it and some air does get trapped up around the shoulder blades and requires a bit of garment pulling to let the air out (ladies check this out blub blub blub LOL). This is actually the first time I have worn a shirt swimming so the concept is pretty alien to me, however, with sun protection becoming a priority I figure I can get used to it. In all it's just a pretty cool shirt and well made. No chafing, no binding. Feels good.

New Zealand - Brazil quotes
Marcos Gaspar, Brazil coach
We are happy with the result but unfortunately we do not go on to the quarter-finals. We are going home but we hope Brazil have left a good impression here in Germany and that everyone could see we were a good team. Today was a hard game because New Zealand are a good team with physical strengths.
Tony Readings, New Zealand coach
We have massive respect for Brazil because of their history but it was still a match we wanted to win and even at 1-0 down, and then 2-0, we made changes to try and win. We didn't want to leave the tournament regretting that we hadn't gone all out to win. We are disappointed not to get any points but it was always going to be difficult to get out of this group.
Estergiane, Brazil captain
The last impressions you make are the most important and we are happy to have played a very good last game. Of course we are sad not to reach the quarter-finals but we are still satisfied with this result.
Leah, Brazil goalscorer
It was my first goal for the national team. I believed in myself and when I saw the opportunity I took it. We had to play the first games differently to what we did but Sweden are phenomenol and so they go through.
Anna Green, New Zealand captain
I don't think anything major went wrong. At times we played at our best and showed the ability to win games but we did not take the chances we had.

|Soy food and isoflavone intake and colorectal cancer risk: The Fukuoka Colorectal Cancer Study.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20969489 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|Abstract Objective. It has been suggested that soy food and isoflavone intake may be protective against the risk of colorectal cancer. However, epidemiologic evidence remains sparse and inconsistent. We addressed this issue in the Fukuoka Colorectal Cancer Study. Material and methods. The study subjects were the 816 incident cases of histologically confirmed colorectal cancer and 815 community controls. Intakes of soy foods and isoflavones were assessed by in-person interview using a computer-assisted dietary method. Logistic regression analysis was applied to estimate odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of colorectal cancer with adjustment for dietary intakes of calcium and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids as well as for body mass index, physical activity, alcohol use, and other lifestyle factors. Results. Energy-adjusted intakes of soy foods (dry weight) and isoflavones were inversely associated with colorectal cancer risk in men and postmenopausal women, but not in premenopausal women. The multivariate-adjusted OR for the highest versus lowest quintile was 0.65 (95% CI 0.41-1.03, p for trend = 0.03) for soy foods and 0.68 (95% CI 0.42-1.10, p for trend = 0.051) for isoflavones in men. The corresponding values for postmenopausal women were 0.60 (95% CI 0.29-1.25, p for trend = 0.053) and 0.68 (95% CI 0.33-1.40, p for trend = 0.049). The site-specific analysis showed inverse associations of soy foods (p for trend = 0.007) and isoflavones (p for trend = 0.02) with rectal cancer in men. Conclusion. The findings add to epidemiologic evidence for protective effects of soy foods and isoflavones in colorectal carcinogenesis.

OCZ set to acquire SSD controller maker Indilinx
updated 09:40 pm EDT, Mon March 14, 2011
Deal said to be worth $32 million
OCZ Technology has announced that it is set to acquire Indilinx, a South Korea-based company that specializes in SSD controllers. Indilinx controllers have been present in some of OCZ's SSD lineup since late in 2008, including the Z-Drive series of PCIe-based drives. OCZ suggests the buyout will help the company expand its reach into the embedded, hybrid storage and industrial markets.
Although OCZ will gain Indilinx' intellectual property, which includes approximately 20 patents and pending applications, the latter company will continue to produce and distribute its existing controller products to other SSD manufacturers. OCZ also noted that it will continue to purchase controllers from separate companies, such as SandForce.
The terms of the buyout include $32 million worth of OCZ stock, bringing Indilinx a 9.5 percent stake in the company. The deal is expected to be closed within 30 days, pending regulatory approvals and resolution of other minor issues. [via PC Perspective]

Kyra Sedgwick Slams Bernie Madoff as 'Sick'
Although her husband, Kevin Bacon, suffered a great financial loss at the hands of Bernie Madoff, Kyra Sedgwick has some compassion for the now-jailed fraudster. "I see him as a sick man," she told Piers Morgan in an interview that aired on Friday. "And I see us as adults who made a choice. And I see a lot of people who are so much worse off than we are, and I think that s--- happens." Morgan pressed on, playing devil's advocate by asking if the actress would off Madoff if she could. "He has a horrible life at this point," she said. "I think you (the media) hate him more than we do." (MSN)

Single family residences on the Isle of Palms range from less than 1,000 square feet (pre-Hugo) to in excess of 8,600 square feet. In addition, there are many multi-level condos throughout the island.
To protect this diverse population, property and landscape, all members of the Isle of Palms Fire Department must be able to multi-task and adapt quickly to any given situation. All personnel receive specialized training. Many larger cities may have specialized teams to achieve the same goals the Isle of Palms crew on duty must accomplish. Off-duty personnel, volunteers, and mutual aid are requested if additional manpower or equipment is needed. The peak season routinely begins on Good Friday and ends on Labor Day.
The department responds to all types of emergencies including, but not limited to, the following: structure fires, brush fires, car fires, boat fires and other marine emergencies, hazmat calls, vehicle accidents, medical calls, and searches for missing people, animal rescues, water rescues in the Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway and surrounding bodies of water. The department often responds to two neighboring unincorporated islands, (Goat Island and Dewees Island). The department's average response time is less than three (3) minutes. The department conducts fire inspections, fire prevention activities; inspection and installation of smoke detectors free of charge, and is very active in community service and public relations. The department has an active Honor Guard. The department gives and receives mutual aid throughout Charleston County. Teams of personnel from the Isle of Palms Fire Department have responded to provide relief to several areas devastated by hurricanes and floods.

Obama hosts Super Bowl-winning Seahawks at White House
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Super Bowl-winning Seattle Seahawks received a rousing welcome Wednesday at the White House during a historic visit with the president.
President Obama hosted the team and congratulated players and coaches for their triumphs in the field and their contributions to their community.
And of course there was a mention of that 43-8 Super Bowl win over the Denver Broncos.
"We are here to celebrate the first Super Bowl victory for the city of Seattle," President Obama said as he introduced the team to a cheering crowd.
Noting that some football analysts didn't see Seattle as a top-tier tem, Obama said he always roots for the underdog because, quote, "seeing folks overcome the odds excites me."
The Seahawks boarded buses at the VMAC facility in Renton on Tuesday afternoon for the trip to Sea-Tac Airport. As team members boarded a chartered plane, a massive banner loomed in the background reading "Go Hawks."
Along with meeting the president, Earl Thomas, Russell Wilson, Richard Sherman and others are scheduled to meet with First Lady Michelle Obama.
As the team made its way to the ceremony, wide receiver Doug Baldwin tweeted, "Michelle, here I come ... l-m-a-o."
Coach Pete Carroll tweeted, "everyone is excited ... we are very proud to represent the 12s in DC. Go Hawks."
Richard Sherman wrote, "excited to visit the White House with the whole team."
And quarterback Russell Wilson tweeted, "I can't wait to go to the White House with my amazing Seahawks teammates ... you get out what you put in."
Long snapper Clint Gresham posted a picture with the title "new haircut cuz I gotta look good at the White House."

Old time hurricane watchers like to say on Aug.1 that the real hurricane season is underway.
I prefer the term "peak" of the hurricane season, as there is nothing different between a hurricane in June than one in August.
The chart shows why we call August through October the peak of the season. Notice the steeper slope of the curve representing average hurricane activity beginning in August and tailing off rapidly by the end of October. This shows that about 85 percent of all storms occur during about a two and a half month stretch of the 6-month season.
Some of Texas' memorable storms have struck in August. Most recently was Hurricane Alicia in 1983. With the ocean heat reaching highest values, wind shear at its weakest and waves coming off Africa with more moisture and at higher latitude, almost anywhere in the tropical Atlantic is susceptible to development.
I've been asked by a lot of people lately: "The tropics are really quiet this season, aren't they?"
Well, not really.
As the chart shows, with Hurricane Arthur in early July and now Bertha, we are about normal for number of named storms and number of hurricanes by Aug. 1.
Bertha poses no threat for our coast, and forecast models out two weeks suggest the pattern will be unfavorable for bringing a storm to Texas.
Our good fortune won't last forever. Stay tuned.
