Iron Grip : The Oppression has a completely new kind of gameplay, combining First Person Shooter with Real Time Strategy elements in a way never done before.
One team consists of one human player, playing a full RTS style game, building and commanding AI troops while the opposing team consisting of human FPS players only!
The new techniques provide the gamer with rising tension in a full scale city war. The beautiful fantasy architecture and other elements which colour this mod brings the player right into the Iron Grip conflict. The small cooperative aspects of the FPS team intensify the need for teamwork to an ultimate level.
Iron Grip : The Oppression is not just meant to provide new gameplay. It also gives players a small taste of what the developing Iron Grip universe is like.
In Iron Grip : The Oppression there are 2 teams. One is the Resistance, and the other is the Rahmos.
Rahmos contains of one main player. This player is the General of the local Rahmos forces. He starts in his HQ and commands his armies via an RTS interface. He can construct infantry and vehicles to attack the Resistance and capture their key locations. If the Resistance team grows in size, another player can join the Rahmos side.
This player also plays an RTS. However he can only command the troops which have been assigned to him by the general.
Rahmos has one General Unit which it needs to protect in order to survive. This unit can be taken over in FPS mode by the Rahmos RTS player.
The Resistance side play a pure FPS. Instead of spawning as regular troops, the Resistance players can choose a character, which they can develope throughout the game. This character is unique in weaponry as in appearance and skills and therefore can only be selected by one player. The Resistance forces earn skill points throughout the round. With these skill points they can buy new skills or revive their Hero once killed.
Their mission is to hunt down and kill the Rahmos General Unit, so anarchy will force the Rahmos City Legions to withdraw.
Rahmos on the other hand has 3 random Resistance Key Locations to secure. These are spread randomly throughout the map. If all 3 are secured by the City Legions Rahmos wins the round.
It is an exciting new cat and mouse gameplay in which the Rahmos forces outnumber the Resistance. The Rahmos vehicles are also something which the Resistance must fear. While Rahmos commands the streets, the Resistance must play smart, hide in the buildings, and work together. Don't underestimate Rahmos. Other than their large numbers they have numerous tricks up their sleeve. Guerrilla warfare is now fought...

Oh yes, why is this released as a mod? this was supposed to be an Inde
hey what anime is your profile pic from?
They took this idea and put it on their own engine and sold it as an indie.
Now I get it!
I enjoyed playing this mod!
Its a great game, and UACMarine was pimping our steam group, we are trying to revive/rebuild this mod, so we will be looking for project members if at all possible, we want to get the mod to 1.5, and may be able to get help doing so.
I really wish someone could make a singleplayer version of this mod....
me too....!!!
This was the only Iron Grip game I really enjoyed. The rest seem to wank about with the setting too much, this game seemed to care less about steampunk tanks and more about actual interesting gameplay.
The rest are alright but Warlord felt like a lame first person tower defense game, and "Marauders" looks like a typical RTS game. The Oppression had its flaws but I feel it, by far, had the most potential of the three.
Not that anyone gives a ****.
On the contrary, I think your absolutely right. Oppression really was (and is) this groups best project in the universe. Warlord was disappointing for a number of reasons even not taking the Quake engine into account. Marauders was a disappointment mainly due to the intense limitations of a browser rts...and really, a browser game?!
If I had one complaint about the mod, and this doesnt just apply to this mod, its that in this day and age, not having bots/coop is like not having multiplayer. Theres really no excuse.
It would be very nice to see them give more support to this mod, but at this point it seems quite unlikely.
Same goes for me I got bored of warlord within 2 days

Animal Encounter: Sharks! | Staci
Whew! It's been a busy summer here at the Aquarium! Extraordinary whale watches, energetic day camps, packed Behind-the-scenes Tours, and hopping Summer Sundays. Our animal encounters have also been quite popular, and one of the encounters I've had the pleasure of leading recently focuses on the ocean's most perfect predators: SHARKS! If you have ever wanted to have an up-close and personal, hands-on experience with these magnificent creatures, then this is the encounter for you.

Where Are the Sea Turtles? | Staci
That is one of those popular questions our guests ask several times a week, and I'm always happy to point them in the right direction! Two olive Ridley sea turtles (Lepidochelys olivacae), Theo and Lou, reside in the Aquarium's beautiful Tropical Pacific Gallery. Theo can often be seen cruising by our dive volunteers during the Tropical Reef Dive, while Lou can be frequently observed napping as you walk through the serene tropical tunnel. Helping out with the care of these magnificent creatures is one of the best parts of my aquarist volunteer days, so please read on to learn more about sea turtles!

The ABC's of Filtration at the Aquarium | Staci
Whether you're maintaining an exhibit that holds 200 gallons or 200,000 gallons, filtration is an integral part of any successful man-made marine habitat. Recently, I mentioned that the Aquarium filters approximately 1,000,000 gallons of salt water per hour to support over 12,000 marine residents. Why is filtration necessary? Fortunately, the Education Department provided me with a wealth of information on filtration practices in effect at the Aquarium of the Pacific that I would love to share with you!

Leading an Animal Encounter: Sea Otters | Staci
In addition to continuing to blog about some of the goings-on in the Marine Mammal Department, I thought it would be nice to share some stories from other parts of the Aquarium as well! I've recently started as an Aquarist Volunteer in our Tropical Gallery, and I continue to be part of the paid staff in the Education Department. Each job brings new and exciting duties, and this past week was the first time I was able to lead one of our Animal Encounters focusing on one of my favorite animals: the sea otter. Ever wondered how we prepare for our Sea Otter Encounter and what happens during the two-hour tour?

Chickens aren't the only ones | Josie
I spent another day with the kindergarteners at Cesar Chavez Elementary School, with which the Aquarium of the Pacific has a partnership, helping Emily teach this month's science lesson on eggs. We showed the children that chickens aren't the only animals that lay eggs, and they were totally amazed when they saw how large a leatherback turtle grows, after being born from an egg that is roughly the size of a ping-pong ball.

Auditions for Red Bluff's Got Talent scheduled
Red Bluff, Calif. - If you have a talent you think people would like to see, and want a chance at winning hundreds of dollars in cash and prizes, then the best place to be in the month of May will be the Red Bluff Elks Lodge for the annual auditions for "Red Bluff's Got Talent," Tehama County's biggest talent showcase.
Almost any talent that can be performed in front of an audience is welcome, according to showcase organizers, from singers, dancers and musicians, to acrobats, ventriloquists, magicians and more. All ages are welcome, and entrants from any part of Tehama County and surrounding areas can audition.
Auditions will happen from 6-8 p.m. on May 10, 17 and 24 at the Red Bluff Elks Lodge, 355 Gilmore Road. Only those who have passed through an audition will be eligible to perform at the showcase.
Prepared audition pieces should be approximately 3 to 10 minutes in length. Those who need musical accompaniment should bring an accompanist or karaoke CD to the audition. An accompanist will be provided on the nights of the performances if needed.
Prizes -- consisting of a huge assortment of choice items donated by city and county businesses, including cash, gift certificates and merchandise -- currently amount to well over $1,000 (and rising) and will be awarded to the top scoring performers at the showcase on June 1.
There is no fee to audition, but those who are selected to participate in "Red Bluff's Got Talent" will simply purchase a standard ticket to the performance as a "registration fee" to cover their full dinner, drinks and dessert on the night of their performance.
Last year's winners were Ellie Fletcher, Mahalee Gaumer, Royce and Lance Crane, Lindsey Fletcher, Kyla Barriga-Ashurst and Karlee Garcia.
All performances will be judged by well-known local celebrities who will briefly interview the contestants onstage before they show off their skills. Last year's judges were KHSL and KNVN news anchor Linda Watkins-Bennett, RBUHS Principal Pat Gleason, Mercy High School Principal Paul Webber and Red Bluff Mayor Forest Flynn.
"It is incredible of the Red Bluff Elks Lodge to provide an opportunity like this for all the diverse folks of Tehama County to get together and demonstrate their many talents," said North State Events manager Mace Archer. "It was such a huge success last year and everyone is looking forward to this popular annual event!"

The darkest of times lay upon my soul
and refuse to go away. There is no control

I won't give up on fight - I won't feel ashamed.
I'll end up with more scars than I used to have
I'll fight with those monsters until my one last breath.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Sharon Morrill
Review for Free Arts For Abused Children, Los Angeles, CA, USA
I became a Board member of Free Arts for Abused Children in 2004 and moved up to President in 2006. In the 7 years I have been involved, I have seen this organization grow both in terms of financial health and program expansion. This organization moves me so much because we provide children with the opportunity to express themselves without having to "talk". These kids have to talk to therapists, judges, counselors, lawyers, social workers. Providing art gives them a safe place to be themselves, express their feelings, and dream.
Most of these children truly have no advocates because their parents cannot or are not able to provide a safe environment for them. Being a mother myself, it saddens me on a deep level to think that these children cannot depend on their parents. So I believe that Free Arts can provide comfort and hope to their lives.
Lastly, I love the volunteer aspect of this organization. With over 550 screened and trained volunteers each year, we service more than just the abused children -- we provide a community service for better understanding in our society.

$72 off on a Nokia 810
Watching geek brief tv, Cali metioned using her promo code on nokiausa.com to get a discount on a N810 tablet. It amounts to $72 off the N810 which totals out to about $410!!! Quick, don't miss it, use coupon code geekbrieftv at nokiausa.com!
If you don't know Cali, shame on you!! http://www.geekbrief.tv/
Must have apps for Nokia 810
Ok, so you've just followed my advice and spent 500 bucks on a brand new Nokia 810. Here is a list of apps to get you off the desktop and out into the world.
- Transmission bittorrent client. I don't think this needs explaining, think Animes (or adult multimedia, whatever floats your boat) on the go!
- FBReader book reader. Hey man! The internet is cool and all, and yes, you can watch movies to pass the time, but even I need to read a nice book once a year or so…
- Pidgin universal IM client. All the Nokia tablets support Google chat by default. This gives you everything else.
- UKMP media player. Be like your annoying iPhone toting, screen poking friends! This will add finger driven multimedia playback to your N810.
- Games. Play time begins now!
Good start! Most, if not all of these apps, are posted on maemo.org and supported by great regular people like you.
Nokia 810 – Ultimate tablet?
So you've heard me talk of the Nokia 770 (which I own) and the Nokia 800. Nokia just started selling the Nokia 810, a sleeker more feature packed version of the 800. For starters, it sports a slide out keyboard, GPS, and is smaller than its predecessors. Wifi and bluetooth as usual and a camera. The new model sports a built-in stand. Software wise, the browser is webkit based and some improvements were made to flash performance. I hear it plays youtube and flash video just fine but I have not tried it myself. For most people interested in either an iPhone or a UMPC, I strongly recommend the N810 as a more capable alternative.
Canola UPNP client for Nokia tablets
So you've got a brand new Nokia 770 or N800 and some bozo in your office went and spent a grand on a UMPC and is showing off. Needless to say, talking about Linux, hackability and speed to a non-geek audience would be an utter waste of time. So what's a geek to do? why install Canola of course! Canola is a media center type application for the Maemo platform. It runs on both the Nokia 770 and the 800. Although beau-coup memory is needed to have your multimedia on the device itself, you can also stream content straight out of your PC or NAS as long as you install the proper UPNP software. Update: Canola 2 is out, please help test it and provide feedback to the authors at http://openbossa.indt.org.br/canola/
Venture One
The Venture One sounds like a dream vehicle from reading its planned specifications, but hopefully a dream that will come true when the first model rolls off the assembly line in 2009. Ian Bruce is hard at work with several other companies to assemble the initial 3 configurations for this futuristic leaning 3 wheeler based on the Carver.
It is expected to give drivers sport car like performance with 100mpg and top speeds of 100mph, with the fun and excitement of a motorcycle thanks to a complex yet elegant hydraulic system that allows the front part of the car to lean independent of the rear.
I've got my name on the waiting list for this one…
MyVu Personal Video Viewers
There's been some buzz lately about these Jordy looking glasses for watching video off of an iPod video. The displayed image is said to seem like a 27″ screen at 6 feet. I haven't seen any in stores but it is available for order on the myvu website.
Here is part of what iLounge had to say about it:
The visual effect is claimed to be equivalent to a 27-inch television at a distance of roughly 7 feet away, but the company isn't aiming for immersiveness: as explained to us back in January, the goal is to allow you to see the world around you while the display is in use. There are three related issues we feel are worth noting in greater detail here: we found the display small – a bit too small, but still watchable, and more so than on either of the other iPod wearable headsets out there – one user with a larger intra-ocular distance found the display impossible to adjust for optimal viewing. And several testers commented correctly that the unit's designed-in ability to let you see the world around you while you're viewing video can be distracting under certain circumstances, one noting that this is the right pair of goggles to wear in a plane, but not as a passenger in a car.
And a few pics of the product from the myvu website:
Sony Ericsson W600i
It's been a while since my last post. I have been busy with projects at work and had little time to play unfortunately. I did however buy a Sony ericsson W600i. I only had it working for 2 days though, as it was pretty much a brick the morning of day 3. It wouldn't charge or even so much as light up. Needless to say, I RMA'd it right away.
In my short 2 day experience with this phone, I really loved it! Despite this obvious problem, it had excellent reception, and voice quality was great both on speakerphone and headset. It also does a good job at serving music despite its limited 256MB of space. My favorite features are elsewhere: Class 10 EDGE with fast Java. Programs such as Google Maps Mobile and Mobile GMaps looked and performed wonderfully on this little beast along with 3D Java games and other excellent utilities. Internet access through bluetooth was also a breaze and worked at a "blazing" 128kbps in most signal conditions here in the bay area.
As you can see I was pretty impressed with this phone. Unfortunately, what good is a cool phone if it won't turn on? I am guessing the one I got was a just dud and Sony Ericsson will step up to the plate and deliver me a working long lasting unit. Stay tuned…
Samsung T509
In my quest for a cheap bluetooth capable class 10 EDGE Phone, I tried T-Mobile's version of the Samsung SGH-T509 (T509 for short). It is slim, has a good UI and works as advertised. But the geek in me wanted more; like running Google Maps Mobile on it since it is Java capable. Small little problem with that. You see, T-Mobile wants you to buy their games and theirs alone. So they had Samsung rig the firmware to only allow signed midlets to access the network!! There is a deal breaker for me. Unlocking the phone let's you use other networks but does not remove the T-Mobile customizations to the firmware. In other words, their version of this phone gets the thumbs down from this geek. Phone went back to TMO and I am back on my quest

Tim Tebow can succeed now ...
... but the real question is whether he can sustain it, and that's a far bigger issue
I've been asked a lot during the last year and half about how good I think Tim Tebow can be as an NFL player. Can he be great? Will he fail? Can he adapt to the NFL game? Can an NFL offense adapt to him? And by now I know there's a trick I can offer both fans and critics. If you want my analysis on why he can be a successful NFL player now, listen up for a minute. If you want the other part, the doubt that creeps in when I wonder about whether he can sustain it, the critic in me on this subject, I'll wink, and you can either start to tune in, or tune me out.
Everybody wins. And I think Tebow can too -- it's just a matter of for how long. So follow along and I'll make it clear on what part you should read. But I can promise you this, in 11 games, we'll have an answer we can agree on.
For an extremely detailed look at why Tebow can win now, and why his future is a concern, sign up for ESPN Insider.

Buyanhishig E. lives with her husband and daughter in the Bayanzurh district of Ulaanbaatar, the capital city of Mongolia. Her daughter is five years old and goes to a local kindergarten. Buyanhishig's family moved to the capital city from Arhanghay province in 2007.
Since the move, Buyanhishig has run a small retail business selling children's clothing, especially jeans pants. She rents a stall in a local market and sells mostly jeans for young people. She frequently travels to Ereen, a Chinese border town where clothing is imported, to purchase cheap yet hip clothing for her business. Most of the jeans that she currently has in inventory are for women. She sees a growing demand for men's jeans and will use the Kiva loan to purchase jeans for men. Buyanhishig hopes to build a small family house on the plot of land her family owns.

studied abroad a few times during high school,
I can testify that studying in a different country,
living and observing a foreign culture, and learning
a new language allows you to gain self-confidence
and awareness. Whether you are considering spending
a summer, semester, or year overseas, the study
abroad experience provides ample opportunities
for you to take risks, try new things (ranging
from food to social situations), and leave your
comfort zone. It is not always easy and can be
downright frustrating, but ultimately the experience
is very rewarding as it eases the transition from
adolescence to adulthood, enabling you to develop
communication and problem-solving skills and to
mature both intellectually and emotionally." —Connie

Sitting here in my apartment at about 2am, and out of nowhere I hear the telltale pffffffffft of a tire losing pressure. I check my bike on the other side of the room, and sure enough my rear tire has lost all pressure.
Last ride was a mild one, quick errand maybe a mile or so. I did hop down a curb on the way home, but if that damaged the tire or tube wouldn't the effects have been sooner?
Tire and tube are the stock components from my IRO Mark V, purchased in July of 08. I pribably last filled with air 6 days ago at 120psi. Not a huge deal, just weirded me out to that the tire completely lost pressure seemingly out of nowhere. Haven't tried refilling yet, but should I just go ahead and replace that rear tube?

Employee giving program
Making a difference, one student at a time...
The Employee Giving Program is a fundraising initiative that gives University of Ottawa faculty members, staff and retirees a way to enhance the student experience on campus. Students inspire us and are at the heart of our mission. Seeing them proudly achieve their goals motivates us to support them and fosters an effervescent, campus-based spirit of philanthropy that reflects the University's commitment to its students.
All the money collected in 2015 will be distributed to over 50 projects aimed at supporting students. Whether these projects take the form of scholarships or student initiatives, they will share a common purpose: to advance student success.
We are happy to report that we have reached our goal of 31% participation. Thank you to everyone who took part in this important initiative.
After all, it takes a campus to make a dream come true.

I have to say this is probably one of the best or is the best HU Ive owned. I've own:
Kenwood KIV-BT901
Parrot Asteroid
Alpine CDE-123
Kenwood Excelon KDE-X996
JVC Arsenal KD-A95BT
JVC Kameleon
Pioneer MVH-P7300
Pioneer MVH- P8300BT
The point is this is the first HU. I have actually written a review about. The HU has amazing features with the Bluetooth streaming. It's easy to connect. I'm using an IPhone 4s. Bring it right up and sync as soon as i get in the truck. Yes it may take a second to sync, but which HU out there doesn't. The brightness has been the same for the past couple years now with alpine. You can change it but it doesn't really help much. I think personal it add to the overall appearance of the HU. The "MX" feature with Bluetooth increase the sound quality of the stream with 3 different opinion, and a 4th custom opinion to tune the way you like. The Subwoofer Feature with the 4 volt Pre-out gives my Sub a great range of tuning. Ive used an SMD DD-1 on the HU it doesn't clip at all 35/35. Also the HU has easy pre-set radio station and the HD radio works Great. Even thou i barely use to lol. The Pandora radio app work great with a thumps up, and thumps down button on the HU it self. Only bad thing I can think of it the one line display, but hey press on button and see the time and anything else. Alot of people say its hard to get use to the controls of the radio or navigating through the features. No. It's just like anything else you have to get use to it and it a breeze after that. One of the thinks i really liked about it was in my truck i have a small Radio space so there isn't much room for air flow to cool the HU, But the Alpine has a built in cooling Fan. With really help, cause i have had several HU from Top brand name companies burn up
All In All i think it a great HU. Has every feature you can think of, with the top of the line quality. The HU look great in any vehicle. Ive had several compliments on it. All the feature do as they are suppose to, and work great.
If your wanting to use Bluetooth like i was looking for. This HU is the way to go. The Bluetooth streaming is amazing. Along with all the tuning features just under the bluetooth settings
DEFINITELY recommend to a friend.
