Signs of Life is a 2d survival sandbox platforming game set in the distant future. It is designed from the ground up to support drop in/drop out online co-op. Explore procedurally generated worlds full of meaningful handcrafted and procedurally generated content and a wide variety of creatures, some of which don't even want to kill you and eat your corpse. You'll hunt monsters, gather resources, craft weapons, armor and gadgets, cook the innards of the various creatures you encounter and if you have some time left over maybe you can try and save humanity.
Sensing that an apocalyptic war was imminent, the United Nations executed a last ditch plan to save what they could of the human race. 2 crafts were launched, a massive colony ship called the Hephaestus and a smaller, faster scout ship called the Hermes. The destination was a recently discovered earth-like planet with the potential to harbor life located roughly 18 light years away. The Hermes reached the planet first in order to establish a presence in anticipation of the arrival of the Hephaestus, but shortly after it reached its destination, all communications between the vessels were lost and never recovered.
4 years later, as the Hephaestus approached its destination a faint signal was detected from a nearby asteroid. Upon investigating the signal, a small artifact of presumably alien origin was discovered. Against their better judgement, the crew of the Hephaestus decided to attempt to activate the artifact, and upon doing so set in motion a chain of events that would ultimately lead to the destruction of the Hephaestus.
The good news is, you managed to survive by hitching a ride on a small escape pod just in the nick of time before the destruction of the Hephaestus. The bad news, is everyone you knew and loved is dead, you have nothing but the clothes on your back, a standard issue wrist laser and a faulty artificial intelligence companion named AGIS. Oh, and the human race is probably doomed. Probably.
We have been working on Signs of Life for just over a year and we're quite far along, but we are far from finished. The majority of the core systems are in place and most of them are nicely polished and satisfying. The game is starting to come together and is already very fun to play, but we have a lot of work ahead of us. We are shooting for a multiplayer alpha sometime in the next few months. We want to be very open with our development, and plan on doing regular dev blogs which you can follow on our website (www.PlaySignsOfLife.com).
We have ambitious plans for Signs of Life, and we intend to continue developing the game long after the initial release.

Don't forget to check out (and vote) for other amazing games in contention. Here are some recommendations:
Got a new update for you folks. The big feature of this update is the long-requested online co-op multiplayer, today is truly a red letter day. Multiplayer uses Steamworks and is drop-in, drop-out, so you should be able to join your friends games through the friends list or the new multiplayer menu from the main menu. Right now the multiplayer is exclusively peer to peer, but we'll be looking into the option of dedicated servers before too long. We've done quite a bit of testing and things seem to be working pretty well, but multiplayer is a very complicated feature so definitely let us know if/when you run into issues.
We've decided to bump the version number to 0.5, because in a way we feel like the addition of multiplayer brings Signs of Life to about the halfway point. Almost all of our technical challenges are solved, and we'll be able to focus on mostly content and bugfixes from now on.

Awesome game 10/10.
Just wanted to let you guys know that Signs of Life is now available on Steam's Early Access: Store.steampowered.com its 9.99, discounted 25% for the next day! =D
I just checked and comments from ModDB and IndieDB are shared, a really smart idea knowing that most of us use ModDB mostly for everything.
Said that here is an small gift that I already posted on the greenlight page of the game, to make the wait for those eaging to get their hands into the game a bit shorter:
The guy who plays it seems to have more interest in exploring than in building stuff, but thanks to the comments and the chat between the devs and the streamers you should get a good idea of what to expect from the release.
See you all tomorrow (for me at least here in Europe), have fun and good luck with everything :)
Here is an idea, how about you make it so the camera doesn't stick so closely to the player and instead will gradually rise. So instead of the camera jolting up and up just because the player walked up a tile high level, it will instead slowly move up as he continues walking on the level.
Yeah we'd definitely like to do more with camera smoothing, I'd also like to have it shift a bit as you're moving the mouse cursor around the screen and stuff. Right now we've got other priorities, but we'd like to get to it eventually.
Starbound with more Realism and more Sci-Fi
когда випуститееееееее!!!!!!!!!
By chance, will you have a Public Demo or will the demo only be for the Testers for the game?
At this point I think we're going to do a small closed alpha and then put the game on Steam's Early Access if possible for the duration of development.

"Marceline!" Atomica managed to make out before someone shushed her again. "I have brought you the band! The new band! For Woestock tomorr-"
An Unidentified Flying Hardcover fell from above and smacked Atomica right in the noggin. Taken completly by surprise, Atomica let out the most unattractive, overheated screech this side of a dial-up modem from 1986.
Atomica's system blared out, completely out of her control as her system did a hard reboot. The noise was worse than a six-armed cyclops running it's claws down a chalkboard. The MC Werewolf snapped his fingers along.
"Wow, that's some groovy primal noise, right there. I can totally feel what you're projecting, tin ghoul."
All of the poetry-progressive mansters and ghouls nodded and snapped along, apparently thinking Atomica's reboot was a new performance.
"-Row!" Atomica continued without missing a beat as her reboot finished up. She rubbed her head. Why was there a dent there? "That is, if you'll perform with us. Atomica and the R.I.P. wouldn't be the same without its aggoredian player."
"Aggoredian?" Someone asked. Monsters were buzzing.
"What's Woestock?"
"Oh, I saw a flyer for that at school. It's some fearstival...."
"In the caves by the woods, supposed to be pretty clawesome...."
"Jimi Hexdrix is going to perform-"
A dozen different conversations started going on at once, talking about Woestock. Atomica smiled confidently. Clearly, Woestock was going to be a huge success! Somehow, she had managed to get everymonster's attention and now they were all talking about her!....well, the show she was going to perform at, anyways.
How did she manage to get everymonster's attention again?...Atomica shrugged. Probably just by being her normal TRULY OUTRAGEOUS self.

SANTA ANA, CALIFORNIA -- These guys use bait and switch tactics. They advertise $1 rent for the first month with $190 per month after that. I called and reserved a unit. When I got there, I was advised that it was mandatory that I get renter's insurance for another $12 per month. I am sure they have a deal with the insurance company to split the fee (if not pocket the whole amount because it is their company). This is not to protect them. You sign an agreement that they cannot be held liable for anything. Nevertheless, you have to take the insurance even if you don't want it. (By the way, the insurance is worthless. It has limitations up the wazoo.)
After I moved in, they sent me a notice within the first six months that they were raising the rent 12.5%. I am sure that they will be doing the same thing within the next six months. In other words, a yearly rent increase of 25%. Nice! Finally, the units have no lights. The only light they provide is one in the hall. However, my light has been burnt out since the day I have moved it. I have begged for them to repair it. Their response was to pound sand. As soon as I can, I will be moving out. I recommend that you do not rent from these con artists.
DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA -- Opened up the unit to find about an inch of water on the floor and mildew growing on a majority of our possessions. Called the district manager that just kept repeating "read your lease" and then went on to tell me they knew the roof was leaking because they had other complaints but we were not contacted. Why? Because the district manager Tyndall ** is lazy and ignorant and obviously doesn't know how to use email, telephones or a database. Home office told us we should have been notified of issues on this property.
Thank God we have private insurance. We were told by an employee that Public Storage won't cover flooding through their insurance. Stay away from this place. Pay a little more and get a decent unit where the company actually doesn't neglect their property. These people are the slum lords of storage.
SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA -- I needed to move residence quickly but could not get a moving truck prior to the 7th of the month. Therefore, PS charged me the ENTIRE month anyway. I will NEVER EVER use this company again - they were not even amenable to working with me to negotiate a fair prorate amount. So much for customer service/retention! Never store your stuff here - not unless you are sure to move before the 7th of the month.
Additionally, the lock and key system seemed user unfriendly - it was overly complicated and confusing. Customer service number is a circular maze of a menu and difficult to get through. They also apparently have many technical difficulties with their online payment system but happily will charge you a $20 convenience fee if you pay by phone. AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!
IRVING, TEXAS -- I've read enough complaints about Public Storage. Now heres is some advice from me. Keep your contact information current-Address and phone number. Pay your bill on time. Set your bill up on auto pay if you can't remember to pay it ontime. Rent is due on the 1st. Not the 7th. If its paid on the 7th and you get a late charge, its 7 days late, not 1 day late. Put your account number on your check. Your name is more common than your realize. We close at 6. If you throw your check through the payment slot after we close, it will be posted the next day. We don't live in the office.
This is self storage, not Ft Knox. Lock it up.
Be considerate of the manager. If they live on site, that is their private residence. Don't beat on their door at 10 at night wanting them to open the gate for you.
The dollar for the first month is not a lie. You were charged 1 dollar for the rent and a 19 dollar one time administrative fee. This was explained to you.
If you think you have felt frustration, imagine calling 7 pages of deliquent customers to try to get them to pay their bill before late charges acrue or stepping in human waste because people do their business on the ground and leave bottles of urine all over the place for me to clean up.
LYNNWOOD, WASHINGTON -- I am not usually one to post a complaint about a place but I had to in this case.
We stored our items at this facility for many years. Things seemed to be fine. We took the yearly monthly increases in our fee with no complaint as well as the "mandatory" insurance policy payments.
However the day we moved the items out of storage, we found that it housed rats. They had created quite a mess. They had also peed and pooped everywhere. We were confused because there was nothing edible within our unit. We also did not know how they got into the space.
We told the employee on-site at the time, but it was shrugged off. I was told that may be one of the storage units near us could have had food. She stayed in the office and did not come down once to see inside the unit and express any concern for the rats being there or about the other storage units. Oh, yes, she did tell me that I had to file a claim with the insurance company (still waiting for that to go through -it's been a few months). We had movers with us at the time, and they had to leave the space several times to take a breath. It was that bad.
I mean rats are a serious issue and it should have been taken seriously. I mean you can get an illness from breathing in dust that is contaminated with urine or droppings. One can only hope that they totally fumigated the unit and surrounding areas after we left and made every effort to get rid of EVERY rat at their facilities. I do not know.
We chose this particular unit because it seemed like it was pretty protected from the outside. It did no good. The other things was that the light in our space was out for several months.
When I asked the employee on duty to change it at the time, she stated that she would have to have the manager call me back. When I got the call, I was told that this space had a "special" bulb with a sensor and that she could not change it-only their handyman could.
Their handyman could not come out to their facility for just one thing; he only came out when there were several things to do. So pretty much, this went nowhere, and the bulb was never changed. The light had gone out of the unit before -when it used to be Shurgard Storage. The employee had grabbed a ladder and changed it for us. Don't know why the Public Storage employees can't get the basic training to change those type of light bulbs.
That's my "3 cents".
ARLINGTON, TEXAS -- I have had a storage facility with Public Storage since 10/10/2009, I paid my bill on 01/05/2010 and on 01/09/2010 I went to my unit to get a few things and it was completely cleared out. I contacted the police dept on that night, and went back to the facility the next day. Not only was I told by the property manager there it was none of my business who was smoking cigarettes with her on the property after hours, but she made no eye contact with me and she did not even seem a least bit concerned with my loss. This let me know that this was an inside job, per my investigation I have also learned that at least 5 other units besides mine was also robbed. If you have any questions or concerns or you are also a victim. Please respond to this correspondence. Thank you
VAN NUYS, CALIFORNIA -- I know I was 2 months overdue. Dealing with my Mom's Cancer, my Brother's stroke, attending to their needs in a different state, my focus was just off course.
BY the time I made the call to them, they said I have 1hour to make payment, as it was schedule for auction.
The bottom line, the staff was not very helpful, as this unit was in my son's name, who was not around, and I had to get the correct phone #. It wasn't until after the auction, that I requested to speak with the DM, and he said he would give me 5mins to make the payment online. We tried, and by the time we did get through, it showed they had SOLD my storage unit.
Because of the way this was handled, I desire to bring a major Lawsuit against them.
The value of my items was way over a $1Million, but they sold it for $2250.00. They sent me a card, stating they will send me a check for the difference and that I must cash it, otherwise it will be cancelled and donated to some charity.
They are not going to get away with this. What they did was wrong. They even refuse to allow me to sign the "Opposition of Lien" to sell.
This is the location on Oxnard and Sepulveda. Their staff is HORRIBLE.
Now, I'm legally going after them. I do believe I have a case.
ST. LOUIS MO -- I have a couple of issues. One complaint regarding the procedures of this location in St. Louis County on Lindbergh Blvd., They advertise $1. or FREE first Months Rent, but then charge $20 to open the account- misleading advertising. Secondly, I would like to warn would be clients that use the 'climate controlled' rooms that they could end up with MOLD on every surface of their furnishings. Beware of any black areas on the floor before you move in. This could be mold just waiting to be circulated by the AC/Heat system and end up on your goods. Some of the smaller items had to be tossed. This was pretty wicked looking mold, appearing as blotches on furniture cloth and fibrous whitish blobs on other items. The temp is apparently the perfect incubator for this type of mold. My goods were stored for 8 months. Good luck.
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS -- I am even now, as I'm writing this, being harassed by Public Storage for money. Lucky for me they cannot get my property; I took it out just in time.
I began suspecting that Public Storage operates a racket this past year by their very hardball and arbitrary business practices. What could be their motive? Well, they hit you for extravagant fines if you are even one day late in paying. Then the sum starts to increase exponentially, every couple of weeks after that. Secondly, they increase your rent frequently. Thirdly, they can confiscate your stored goods.
As for my complaint, apparently I was being set up. It was over a sum of money they say I owed them. Can you believe it: $2.00? What happened was that they increased my rent (which occurs all too frequently). I paid the increase, already determined to look for another storage facility. But they wrote that the sum I owed them was $2.00 over what the notice stated. They locked me out of their facility, and actually sent me an extraordinary letter threatening auction of my goods if I did not pay, even though I was only a few days late on their deadline. So I paid it, at the office, with protest. I asked them how could they treat their good customers with such a mean spirit? They tell you that computers send the letters, and they have no control. I told them that computers are programmed for company policy. And, besides, it is not true they have no control. I found out the office manager does have certain discretion over late fees. And that evening, after their office hours, I took all my goods out of their storage, so that they could not interfere.
The next day I reported to the office for termination of my rental with them. They weren't too happy that I did this, even though there is no rental lease. It is simply month to month. Now, even though I have the final payment papers, they have begun sending me bills. First a bill for the $2.00 I already paid. A week later a bill for the entire month of June, even though I took my goods out the end of May.
I know where this is going. They will bill me, I won't pay; they will give it to a collection agency, and my credit rating will be harmed. This is their revenge.
Anyone who has had any such experiences with this company please make complaints. Let it be known publicly. And perhaps a class action suit can be filed. Even now I'm talking to a lawyer about action against them.
And do not rent from Public Storage under any circumstance. It is clear from these complaints that the company has got a racket going on, and makes a lot of money from both the rental and the auction of your goods.
SUNNYVALE, CALIFORNIA -- I would like to tell you about a worst customer experience I had at the Public Storage on Fair Oaks Avenue in Sunnyvale, CA .
I rented a unit in the Public Storage at 1096 N Fair Oaks Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA, from 11/19/2008 to 12/17/2008.
When I took out my stuff on 12/17, I talked with [snip], the property manager, to make sure all the payments are done and there is no amount due. I called him again on 12/18 and 12/19 to make sure the same thing. And he said everything is fine and I am good to go.
Yesterday on 02/09/2008, I received a letter (dated 01/27/2009..!!) from Allied Interstate (Collecting Agency) that $25 is due on my account. I went to the same Public Storage and talked with [snip]. ([snip] was on leave, so she was acting property manager) She said that I have been charged for dumpster usage. I explained her that I haven't left a single paper on your premises or put empty boxes in your dumpster, then why am I being charged.
Her response :- "There were some boxes left on premises that day, we don't know who did it, but since you ([snip]) were the only one to move out that day, we charged you." What the ***** is this. So tomorrow, if I go to that Public Storage, throw a box at night, would they charge the guy who left that day. This is total BS.
I asked her to give the Field/Regional Manager email id or phone number. But she won't give one right away. Finally after lot of discussion she gave me [snip] phone number. I called that number and no one answered, left a voicemail, no one called back...!!!
Firstly those guys put a false charge on my account. Then without notifying me (either through phone call or letter) they forwarded it to collecting agency. The collecting agency reported this to credit bureau and my credit history got screwed. My two active credit cards got deactivated because of collection agency on my credit report. What the **** is this.
I am really hurt with this incident. It was embarrassing to see those credit cards getting declined every time when I tried using them before knowing they have been deactivated.
When I asked everything is clear, [snip] replies yes everything is fine and I am good to go. After that they put wrong charges. Don't inform me via phone or letter, directly give it to collecting agency and then screw my history. And all these for no fault of mine.
I would like to know if there are any laws to protect consumers like me for the false charges, not notifying me, credit history getting screwed and emotional distress I am going through. I am not a rich person, so I can't afford to pay for lawyers fees, just want to know if some non-profit organization can fight for me.

You actually couldn't be much more wrong to be honest.
yes this is pretty off. They play this in A flat standard. I've started messing around with this myself and it's very hard to pick out some notes because it's tuned so low. That is not the intro I came up with though.
Get thicker strings and try again buddy.

Anticipating disruptions, major drug store chains such as CVS and Walgreens have announced they will help customers who face coverage questions, even providing temporary supplies of medications without insisting on up-front payment. Many smaller independent pharmacies also are ready to help.
SACRAMENTO, CALIF. — After a troubled rollout, President Barack Obamas health care overhaul now faces its most personal test: How will it work as people seek care under its new mandates?
Most major pieces of the Affordable Care Act take full effect with the new year. That means people who had been denied coverage because of a pre-existing medical condition can book appointments and get prescriptions.
Caps on yearly out-of-pocket medical expenses will mean people shouldnt have to worry about bankruptcy after treatment for a catastrophic illness or injury. And all new insurance policies must offer a minimum level of essential benefits, ranging from emergency room treatment to maternity care.
The benefits apply to individual policies as well as those offered through employers.
The burden for implementing the law now shifts to insurance companies and health care providers.
Dr. John Venetos, a Chicago gastroenterologist, said there is tremendous uncertainty and anxiety among patients who have been calling his office, some of whom believe they have signed up for coverage but have not yet received insurance cards.
Decision time
Theyre not sure if they have coverage. It puts the heavy work on the physician, Venetos said. At some point, every practice is going to make a decision about how long can they continue to see these patients for free if they are not getting paid.
Administration officials said this week that 2.1 million consumers have enrolled through the federal and state-run health insurance exchanges that are a central feature of the Affordable Care Act.
Yet how many of those who signed up for coverage on the exchanges will follow through and pay their premiums will not be known for a couple of weeks. People who signed up on the federal website have until Jan. 10 to pay premiums for coverage retroactive to Jan. 1, while consumers in some states have until Jan. 6.
Those who enrolled during the exchanges first three months, persisting through serious technological problems and jammed call center phone lines, are probably motivated to make sure they have a policy in place as soon as possible, said Anthony Wright, executive director of Health Access California, which advocates for lower-income people and supports the federal health care changes.
These are people who made a point of signing up and signing up before the deadline so they could start on Jan. 1. That suggests to me that that will be a population that is more likely to follow through with the payment, he said.
Premiums paid after the deadline will be applied to coverage starting Feb. 1 or later. Consumers have until March 31 to sign up in time to avoid a federal tax penalty for remaining uninsured. That fine starts at $95 for an individual this year but climbs rapidly, to a minimum of $695 by 2016. There is an additional fine for parents who do not get health insurance for their children.
Medicaid issue
Although the federal website is apparently fixed for consumers, the start of the year was expected to bring plenty of confusion.
Medicaid, the state-federal health insurance program for the poor, already was experiencing problems in some states.
In Pennsylvania on Thursday, Gov. Tom Corbetts office cautioned that people who applied for health insurance through the federally run website and were found to be eligible or potentially eligible for Medicaid might not have coverage.
The federal website was supposed to send their applications to the Medicaid agency in their state. But that had yet to happen in Pennsylvania and the other 35 states relying on the federal insurance exchange.
A spokesman for the Corbett administration said the federal government continues to have trouble transferring the electronic files of more than 25,000 applications to the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare.
We are doing everything we can to ensure these individuals receive the coverage theyve applied for as quickly as possible, department spokesman Eric Kiehl said.
Once the applicants are enrolled in Medicaid, coverage will be retroactive to Jan. 1, he said.

Saudi's are competing with North Korea and Iran at being the craziest country in the world. And so far Saudi is winning.
Maybe Saudi also needs an Arab spring revolution of its own.
There was also a suggestion for a fatwa by Saudis to allow women in the workplace to breast feed their male colleagues in order for the males to become their Mahram (kin). This would allow them to work together.

WALLA WALLA -- An area known for its babbling creek, wild fields and high bluffs crowned with vineyards could one day be the next major housing development for the city, if approved by Council members on Wednesday.
The Provenance subdivision could see as many as 199 single-family residences on what is now 77 acres of open field bordered by the Yellowhawk Creek subdivision, Assumption Catholic School and several other surrounding homes, farms and vineyards.
"It is a lot of homes in, to us, what is a very pristine area," said Kathy Ruthven, a local neighbor, who not only worries about losing the natural environment, but the traffic problems that will follow when an estimated 400 to 800 people move in to the 199 single-family residences. And she is especially concerned about the ensuing spike in traffic at Tausick Way and Alder Street.
"That is one of the worst intersections in the city, and they are thinking that little intersection will hold all that traffic?" Ruthven balked.
The proposal to develop the 77 acres is one that developers have been working on for years. In that time neighbors submitted dozens of letters of protest and have attended planning meetings to voice their concerns about preserving wildlife habitat, inadequate access for larger emergency vehicles, too few entrance and egress ways, and too small of lots (at one point the developers were opting to put 50 homes on six acres).
One of the weightier complaints against the development might be the effects to the local fish habitat.
The Nation Marine Fisheries Service said in a letter that Yellowhawk Creek, which runs through the 77 acres, was deemed a "vital migratory corridor for Middle Columbia River steelhead."
The agency went on to say the standard 25-foot setbacks as proposed would not be adequate to protect the critical riparian habitat.
At 7 p.m. Wednesday, Council members will review the Provenance development at their regular meeting at City Hall, 15 N. Third Ave.
Staff is recommending approval of the development.

Awards honor those with 'Spirit of ADA'
Sarah Helm has never let her multiple sclerosis diagnosis define her — but it's definitely influenced several aspects of her life.
Helm, who was diagnosed in 2001, is associate coordinator for career services at the University of Tennessee, where she helps students with disabilities pursue their college educations. Meanwhile, she earned her own doctoral degree while battling MS — and in her spare time, she dances with a hip-hop group.
These accomplishments, along with Helm's involvement with community groups including the Mayor's Council on Disability Issues, National Alliance on Mental Illness, Knoxville Area Disability Connection, Knox Area Employment Consortium for people with disabilities, MS Society and disAbility Resource Center, has led to DRC's honoring her with a "Spirit of ADA Award" at this year's celebration.
The annual luncheon, which DRC hosts, serves a dual purpose. It commemorates the July 26, 1990, signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act by President George H.W. Bush, and it honors those in the community who demonstrate empowerment, accessibility and equal opportunity to transportation, employment, housing, government services, and other community activities — the "spirit" of the law, said DRC Executive Director Lillian Burch.
This year's luncheon takes place at noon Friday at the Foundry at World's Fair Park; tickets are $12 each. In addition to Helm, an award will go to WATE-TV reporter Don Dare, who Burch said "has covered several issues for people with disabilities that included ramps, restaurant access and driving with assistive technology," following up on stories until concerns are resolved.
Dollywood will be honored with a "business award" for its attempt to make all rides accessible, and Marriott Business Services will receive the "employer" award for hiring people with disabilities and providing accommodations when needed. A "consumer" award will go to two-year Marriott employee Jacob Terry.
Stefano Collins, counselor for Vocational Rehabilitation Services, will receive a "service provider" award, and Joe Ellison, who supports DRC by assisting with newsletter mailings and at social events, besides acting as office clerk, shopper and errand runner, will receive a "volunteer" award.
In addition, a "special staff award" will be presented to employment specialist Basil Farris, who came to DRC as a client and was then hired as a job coach. As a child, Farris was placed in special education at school and given limited options for future employment. Later in life, he lost his vision but received surgery to correct the blindness. Burch said his work at DRC "proved the school system (prediction) wrong."
"With his developed skills, he assists people with disabilities in obtaining and keeping employment," she said. "In order to do this, he has to assess them, assist with job applications and resumes, provide job skills and training, and follow up with any problems they may have on the job."
For tickets or more information, call 865-637-3666.

Report: 76ers interviewing ex-Wiz for head coach
Should the Wizards have offered Wall a max deal?
Entering the 2013-14 season, a baker's dozen worth of NBA teams will have a new head coach. Of those 13 scenarios, 12 of those jobs have been filled. The lone holdout, the rebuilding Philadelphia 76ers. One assistant coach with local ties reportedly in the mix.
David Vanterpool, currently an assistant coach with the Portland Trailblazers, is interviewing with the 76ers on Monday, according to Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Vanterpool, 40, grew up in Silver Spring and starred at Montgomery Blair High School before playing at St. Bonaventure. The 6-foot-5 guard had a lengthy international career with one pit stop in the NBA, a 22-game stint for the Wizards during the 2000-01 season.
Considered and up-and comer as an assistant and basketball talent evaluator, Vanterpool previously spent two years as a scout for Oklahoma City. He also served under legendary Euroleague coach Ettore Messina for three years. From Wojnarowksi:
"Vanterpool made an immense impression with management, coaches and players in his first season on the Blazers' staff under Terry Stotts, and many in the league view him as a future head coach in the league. Vanterpool works closely with the NBA's rookie of the year, Damian Lilliard, with the Blazers."
Current Philadelphia assistant Michael Curry, who once played for the Bullets, and San Antonio assistant Brett Brown, are also considered candidates along Boston assistant Jay Larranaga, the son of former George Mason head coach and current Miami (Fl.) coach Jim Larranaga.
With a nod toward their middling status and the starry 2014 NBA Draft, the 76ers traded All-Star guard Jrue Holiday to New Orleans this offseason for rookie center Nerlens Noel, the sixth overall pick in the 2013 draft. Philadelphia also selected Syracuse point guard Michael Carter-WIlliams in the first round.

Study Sees Continued Decline in Overall Credibility of News Media

Re: Study Sees Continued Decline in Overall Credibility of News Media
Perception or not I think the truth is there.
The difference, at least 'A' difference, as I see it is that Fox News whether it be their straight news portions but especially their commentary shows(O'Reilly, Hannity etc) make no hidden notice of giving a conservative angle. It's blatantly clear in the commentary shows and only there in some minor instance for straight up news reporting. Most have a hard time discerning this separation of news vs commentary portions on Fox.
The rest of the media from the alphabet's down to PBS like to bill themselves as being middle of the road on all points and the last 10 years they clearly are not. The last 5-6 years especially. When there are reports of editor offices donating 80% plus to Democrat causes and trying to pass off phony documents as real like Dan Rather did the bias is clear. When swarms of reporters stalk out every facet of Sarah Palin's life but sweep Biden under the rug it's very clear where these guys interests lie. Biden makes Palin looking fucking brilliant and that includes silly comments like "seeing Russia from her house". Man has a foot in mouth gaffe almost monthly but weekly on a campaign trail.
But really in a nation with so many news options PBS as a news outlet is obsolete. I believe in PBS programming from NOVA, their documentaries on through SStreet but funding for them as a news outlet is long since past.

Bridges are singing in the rain
| October 23, 2012 |
Scientists at Brigham Young University have discovered a way to measure defects in bridges by listening to the sounds they make when impacted by drops of water.
Echo location is the basic principle at work here, a technique used for all kinds of things, from finding underground deposits of oil and gas to radar and sonar. But the BYU researchers were able to diagnose structural flaws in bridges using nothing more than a spray of water.
Acoustic testing of bridges at present uses solid objects like hammers and chains. It is hoped that the water-dropplet testing will be quicker, cheaper and more accurate once a commercial application is created.

Act on debt I
Act on debt
The federal government spent $1.1 trillion more than it took in last year and now owes over $16 trillion. But these numbers are so huge as to be meaningless, so I appreciate Ralph R. Reiland breaking it down to how much each individual and household owes in his column "Our increasing debt by the numbers" (Jan. 14 and TribLIVE.com). That makes it personal.
No one planned this crushing debt. It's the cumulative result of countless smaller decisions usually touted as compassionate. Bail out that corporation to save its employees' jobs. Attack that country because its rulers oppress its people. Subsidize that "green" industry because its products are good for us but nobody wants to buy them.
Send money to hurricane victims without knowing or caring how much they're getting from their state and local governments, charities or insurance. And never ask where the budget could be cut to offset this compassionate spending. That would be heartless!
Washington has operated this way for years, under both parties, and it's left us, our children and grandchildren with a huge and growing debt. The road to insolvency, like that to hell, has been paved with good intentions, but now we're seeing what this unaffordable compassion costs.
Will the U.S. change course before it's too late? Or is it already too late?

text: I have a long tube (aout 30 cm) with a convex lens of diameter 7.5 cm on the one end and a small hole of diameter 2 cm on the other. When i shine a light through the hole and let it pass through the lens, i get a flowery pattern on the wall, looked very strange to me. There is a maxima in the center as expected, then dark for a little further and then patches of light all around the center that resemble petals. Why is this pattern formed? Note: This pattern does not appear to form without an apperture smaller than the lens, like a hole.

I'm not really debating which PHP framework to use as much as I'm trying to understand if it is feasible to expect to learn PHP and Yii simultaneously. I've worked a lot with ASP Classic, VBA/Access, and VB6 so I have programming experience but little to no experience real programming - OOP, PHP, or frameworks.
I often see people recommending that you have several years of experience with PHP and OOP before you learn Yii.
I have a fair-sized web app project coming up which should really be built in PHP/MySQL. I'm just trying to get a better handle on whether I need to hire someone, take private training, or whether I should plan to be in development for 15 years or until bankruptcy, whichever occurs first. :-)

Insulated Winter Jackets & Coats for Men
About Men's Insulated Winter Jackets and Coats:
Here, you'll find only the best insulated jackets and coats for men from the top brands in the outdoor industry. With the term insulated jackets being thrown around quite a bit these days, there are tons of different styles and technologies in the insulated category, but just remember: the point of these coats remains the same, to keep you toasty warm in in the best winter jacket you can get your hands on.
When choosing your next insulated jacket, it's important to think about your main purpose for wearing the coat. Are you in need of a mid-layer or outer-layer? Maybe you want to rock your insulated jacket as a mid-layer, so you're probably going to need some sort of waterproof or water-resistant shell over the top of it. No matter how you plan on keeping warm out there, the options are all here for you. Is a hood in the mix? You'll find a wide selection of hoodies too, even hoody-jacket combos.
There are a couple different types of insulation at work here, but whichever way you go you'll find yourself a warm winter jacket. Whether it's synthetic insulation, which will hold up better to moisture when it gets wet, or down insulation, which tends to be lighter and more compressible than synthetics, you have your insulation needs covered.
Cold weather doesn't stand a chance with this sort of collection waiting for you. Get excited and stay excited as you hit this ski slopes in style, ready for whatever the elements throw your way. This collection is a winter jacket lover's dream, and you might say we've outdone ourselves this time. Luckily for you, you might be right.

Picture: George Clooney 2008 National Board of Review Awards at Cipriani - Inside Arrivals New York City, USA - 15.01.08
George Clooney risked re-injuring his life-threatening back injury on the set of new movie THE GOOD GERMAN when his pal and director Steven Soderbergh asked him to put his body in danger for one gutsy scene.
Soderbergh admits he felt terrible when he realised he'd have to ask Clooney to participate in a pivotal fight scene in the film because the Oscar winner's heroics in SYRIANA left him with spinal fluid leaking into his brain.
Clooney underwent painful surgery and had to wear a brace on his neck for months last year (05) following the injury.
Soderbergh says, "I felt bad sort of. It was uncanny that invariably the thing that needed to be done in the scene was the worst possible thing that you could do for the injury that he had - a spinal injury near the neck area.
"When (character) GUNTHER (BEHN) attacks him in the apartment I said, 'OK you're gonna be down on the ground and he's gonna pick you up and pull you by the neck back into this wall and then he's gonna bite your ears.' He (Clooney) just did it."

The .223 and .308 dilemma
Previous Topic

Last Post:
The .223 and .308 dilemma
So I am interested in picking up a low cost bolt action rifle with decent range capabilities. But it has to be practical and SHTF ready.
I am looking at a Remington 770 for the .308 rifle
I was thinking a savage Axis for the .223
Here is my dilemma, I own a S&W M&P15 which uses 5.56 so I am thinking, like preppers agree, keep the ammo consistent across firearms. .223/5.56 is a fairly common round and will carry well in a SHTF event.
But I am reading about the range and stopping power of a .223 is not what a .308 can do. I do not anticipate sniping targets 500 yards out, but I am a prepper and we know what anticipation means.
So now I am really liking .308 which performs well in all benchmarks, but then my ammo is inconsistent, and now I have to stock up on additional .308 ammo which is more expensive. Plus additional load.
So since opinions differ without some clarification I will put in the following caveats.
It has to be practical and reasonably priced.
It is being bought specifically with SHTF in mind.
The above means possible "live" targets so keep that in mind. (we will use zombies on record)
Ammo availability is something I am interested in, so I would like to hear about that as well.
Thank You, I will keep you posted on the decision.

Overheard at a prep party: "Ok, I get the whole backpack thing, but who is Bob?"

For around $350 +/- you can get a very nice Marlin X7VH heavy-barrel varmint rifle, cal. .308, which comes with a very nice adjustable trigger, and for under $150 any of several online retailers will be happy to sell you a 10x-40x or an 8x-32x scope, with illuminated range finding reticle. The scope even comes with rings. Whoopee. That rifle/scope combo will easily deliver MOA performance with quality factory ammo, and sub MOA accuracy with well-crafted handloads. Great performance, reliability, durability, and real value need not cost a lot. What's not to love?!
Your S&W M&P15 is all you need in .223. Most quality AR15 rifles will deliver good accuracy with open or red dot sights, and exceptional accuracy with a high powered scope. A bolt action .223 will not add to your real-world capability with that caliber in any way. Save your money.
Last Post:
Horselips is correct. A .223/5.56 bolt action rifle will not really help in this situation. A good bolt action .308/7.62x51 will be more beneficial at the longer ranges, i.e. better ballistics, not as affected by the wind/weather, and delivering more energy at the 500+/- yard ranges. @import url(http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/Forums/CuteSoft_Client/CuteEditor/Load.ashx?type=style&file=SyntaxHighlighter.css);
Last Post:
I am certainly leaning the way of .308 for a bolt action. The ballistics are better, the gun more accurate, and even though the extra ammo is not practical, I think it is a "practical risk" to have enough on hand maybe 500 rounds. I figured with a bolt action I am likely to use less (or not as fast).
Horselips: I will have to look at the Marlin, I did not see that, I was trying to get a younger, cheaper 700 with the 770.

Dick's Sporting Goods has a "Black Friday" special - a Remington 700 Varmint in your choice of calibers (incl. .308) for just $349. Unbelievable deal. Don't worry about different calibers being practical. That's nonsense. You get the weapons you think you're going to need, PERIOD.
Last Post:
Hello a couple points I wanted to make and a couple options to look at. A bolt rifle 308 will consumption rate is going to be slower by far than the voracious. Ar 15 so having inconsistencys in your ammo is not a problem. Now having five or six rifles all taking different ammo would be. Remeber bolt actions ard about quality not quantity use your high cap mags for suppressing fire. The Marlin is a nice rifle I have a 30-06 in one and its a shooter. I would stay away from the 770 Shooting Times did a budget rifle shoot out and the 770 did not fare well compared to similarly priced rifles. The Ruger American is a good rifle for about 325 on sale. MOA accuracy with box ammo and scoped up only weighs 7 pounds. That mean more weight capacity for ammo. I bope I was helpful. I feel that a light bolt action couples nicely with an ar in shtf type scenario. MOVE LIGHT MOVE FAST STAY ALIVE.
Last Post:
OK, I seem to be of the same mindset as the others who replied, so besides the .223/5.56 AR15 and the bolt-action .308, I'm just gonna put my 2 cents in: one thing you need to bear in mind if you're on a budget, is that you're probably going to spend more money on ammo in the long run than on your rifles. I've had this dilemma myself. As long as your AR15 is chambered for 5.56 you can use milsurp ammo which is far cheaper than .223, which is great since that is your high-volume shooter. This is another good reason to not bother with a .223 bolt action for this purpose. On the other hand, most bolt action .308's are not chambered for 7.62 rds, and once again the milsurp 7.62 stuff is cheaper than .308 so you will probably spend more on those 500 rounds of .308 than the inexpensive bolt action cost altogether. That being said, I have a Rem700 VTR in .308 with a descent Nikon scope, and as a previous person commented I can make every shot count at a good distance while keeping my AR15 for closer encounters. [and my tactical pump 12 gauge for my last line of defense]. I'm not any kind of expert but hope this helps.

Great finale. Sutter and company definately pulled a fast one on the audience with the club being in on Jax being a rat. I dont think Jax has a clue that Gemma and Clay were responsible for his dad's death. One thing to mention is that Gemma didnt want Jax to die, she tells Clay in the beginning of the episode that she doesnt want him to see the same fate that John did. Thats when I knew those two were responsible for his death. It truly changes thought how we perceive Clay and Gemma now. They are truly evil people regardless of the appearences they put up. Its a brilliant move by the writers, they did a similar thing with the Shield in the last 2 seasons when the audience, for the most part, went from liking Vic Mackey to the show revealing to us the scumbag he really was and turning the focus of the show from disturbed hero to downright evil bastard. I guessing that change took place last night when it comes to Gemma and Clay. Im guessing Tara and Jax will be at odds with those two for the remainder of the show now as they battle for the club and there humanity.
ill watch on dvd sometime as i dont get HBO. The books are some of the best fantasy by far. The actual fantasy is quite subdued and the story is more political intrigue. Its a story of the Starks, Lannisters and Baratheon set against the backdrop of the Night Watch and the threat of the mythical "Others" that may or not be threatening the realm. My only complaint is while George Martin, the author, is spending time on this tv series he wont get the 5th book in the series finished, its been some 5 yrs now since the last book came out. Prolific this guy is not.
I'm starting to lose interest in this show. I didnt really care that much at all about Sean getting his girl back. The aliens and the president story is still keeping my interest but barely. I got about one or two more episodes at the most before I give up, unless things start getting more interesting.

Playing Wizards rookies together seems to work
Highlights: Hawks 101, Wizards 99
Maybe the Wizards stumbled onto something positive, even in a crushing defeat Friday to the Atlanta Hawks in overtime.
Coach Randy Wittman had been reluctant to play his two rookies, Otto Porter and Glen Rice, together. That's why in the previous game to the Denver Nuggets, Rice was thrust into the starting lineup to replace Martell Webster, who was out with a left ankle sprain.
This experiment might've changed his mind for Saturday's game vs. the Los Angeles Clippers at Verizon Center (CSN, 7 p.m. ET).
With Webster back in the lineup, Wittman went with Porter, Rice, Garrett Temple and Jan Vesely off the bench.
Here's what Wittman said earlier in the week when asked about his ever-changing rotations: "It's always a feel thing for me. How is the game going, where are we at in the game, especially in the first quarter. Do we have a good rhythm, do we have a good flow, is the pace good. That's how I coach that. It changes from game to game. I've played around with a lot of things in the rotation."
Porter entered in the final 20 seconds of the first quarter vs. Atlanta and made his first field goal as a pro. Thirty-six seconds into the second, he made another shot. Temple assisted him on both.
[RELATED: Wizards fold on final possessions]
A rebound by Temple led to a layup from Vesely. Rice drained a three-pointer. Temple made a layup. Rice buried another three-pointer. Then Temple sent a lob to Vesely for a dunk. And like that, the league's lowest scoring bench coming into the game at 18.6 points per game, staked the Wizards a 35-28 lead. It would be their largest of the game.
Temple had four assists in 16 minutes of play. Vesely and Rice had eight points and five rebounds each, playing just less than 20 minutes.
That likely translates into Eric Maynor and Chris Singleton not playing for the second game in a row.

hmm, the only thing that I can think of is cut out a bunch of strips of white and blue tulle and have a fan blow on him when he's on stage so the tulle flys everywhere. But that sounds tricky and complicated.
