However, Age of Wushu focuses a lot on uneven risk and reward. It is not enough to simply have RPS elements. A combat design built around mixups should also have many different options between these mixups that create an inter-RPS. Let me explain broadly: Some rocks beat other rocks, but the other rocks provide better rewards when used against scissors. Some rocks might even provide benefits when used against paper! The series of mindgames interwoven into your attack choice are the focus for this week.
However, Age of Wushu focuses a lot on uneven risk and reward. It is not enough to simply have RPS elements. A combat design built around mixups should also have many different options between these mixups that create an inter-RPS. Let me explain broadly: Some rocks beat other rocks, but the other rocks provide better rewards when used against scissors. Some rocks might even provide benefits when used against paper! The series of mindgames interwoven into your attack choice are the focus for this week.
Attacks that lose aren't the best idea
You and your opponent are at a critical point in your match, and you both choose to attack. If you chose a filler attack though, you're coming out on the bottom in that trade -- if your attacks trade at all.
Filler attacks are just that. They're attacks that are best used to fill space in combos. By using filler attacks, you can deal much more damage than if your combo was entirely composed of linking attacks. However, the benefits typically stop there. Choosing to do a filler against an interrupt or lunge will cause your filler to not come out, while choosing a filler against a combo starter will result in a highly unfavorable trade where you eat a big combo to the face.
Some fillers are OK to use when there's little risk, such as ranged fillers. Lotus Blooming From the Fire is not very good at close range, but when your opponent can't threaten you, it can rack up some free damage. Even this is risky. Fillers don't knock down or stun, so your opponent might choose to dash at you at that moment and attempt a lunge, or he might use a ranged combo starter.
You can identify fillers by using them. Any overt attack that doesn't provide some kind of limited hard CC effect is a filler. Some attacks don't really CC, but they aren't fillers because they interrupt your opponent's attack. Swallow Flies Over the Pond is a good example; it pushes back but doesn't lead into anything else. It's not a filler, and it's incredibly useful as a result.
Combo starters are the opportunity attacks of the game. They lose to lunges or faster combo starters and are generally bad if blocked, but if you can guess your opponent is going to feint, a combo starter leads to huge amounts of damage. They're the real high-risk/high-reward option in Age of Wushu.
A combo starter is any non-feint, non-lunge attack that provides CC. Although there are interrupts that don't provide true CC (such as Swallow Over Pond), they occupy the same design space as combo starters as they are used at similar times. For most styles, though, a combo starter is a move that sets up into more damage. Submerge the Lotus is one of the most identifiable combo starters in the game; it launches the opponent skyward and allows for extra punishment.
For most combo starters, you want to identify the best times to use them. The #1 time to use a combo starter is when you can identify when the opponent wants to feint or when he wants to use a combo starter that is slower than yours. Submerge the Lotus is a fast move, but against Split Earth Asunder, it will lose before it gets to attack.
They're also the best moves to punish laggy moves. Loathsome Clouds and Rain is a powerful combo starter, but it is horribly unsafe if blocked. It can be punished by all but the slowest combo starters, and this gives away big damage if your opponent uses it recklessly.
Lunges are the meat of Age of Wushu's attacks. A lunge is usually identified in its tooltip as "This movement can be used with flying skills to quickly approach the enemy." Lunges are sometimes called "charges," depending on which player circle you belong to (I pretty much coined the term "lunge" for AoW's charges; I think it's used only on Blue Dragon, where I play).
Not all lunge moves are listed as such in the tooltip, and there are many moves that lack the "lunging" elements of the move but otherwise behave like lunges. Most super moves, such as Slow Green Shadow or Flower-Stirring Steps are effectively lunges with no lunge distance.
Describing lunges is difficult, but it's important because they are the most important moves in the game. Lunges have two different ranges they use: charge range and activation range. The activation range is listed in the lunge's tooltip, while the charge range is hidden. Most lunges have a 5- to 8-foot charge distance on the ground and a slightly over 10-foot charge range in the air. Some lunges, particularly super moves, do not have charge range and have only activation range. Some lunges have longer charge range than others, some have a larger activation range against aerial targets, and so on.
Lunges can be queued, and this is the easiest way to determine if a move is a lunge. If it can't be queued, it is not a lunge. The inverse is not always true, but melee attacks that can queue are almost always lunges.
A lunge that is executed outside of activation range but inside charge range will attempt to lunge at the opponent until it arrives at the target (roughly 1-2 feet), then will attempt to activate. It will not activate when it reaches activation range. If two lunges charge at each other, the winner is typically determined by lag. This is bad, so you should generally avoid using lunges except inside activation range.
Using a lunge while inside activation range will begin hitting the opponent at the moment the game servers receive the request. To put this in plain terms, I'd say lunges activate instantly. Additionally, they place their target into a sort of "locked" stun, which I call "hitstun." It is very short and generally only lasts until the end of the move, but because this stun occurs immediately when the move starts, lunges are the choice moves for beating other moves. They are effectively dragon punches; they beat all other moves if started up inside their activation range.
Because of their unique hitstun properties and instant startup, lunges are ideal moves for ending combos. They're also good to use to beat even the fastest combo starters, which can be incredibly valuable for putting powerful moves on cooldown. Lunges also beat feints, but that's generally a crude use of a lunge unless it's a high-damage lunge (such as a super move or Blood Stops in Seven Steps). Lunges are best used to beat other attacks.
Lunges can also be used to punish moves that have very tiny vulnerability windows. Glamorous Illusion (or Flame Tree Silvery Flower -- they changed the name) is a pretty good example of a move that has an extremely tiny vulnerable window, less than 50ms long. If you block it -- or even get hit by it, amusingly -- you can punish with a lunge if you are lucky. Unfortunately, the punish window for it is so short that it is impossible to punish reliably unless your ping is under 30ms.
Most lunges tend to end right as the move stops hitting, and they have the same duration of stun on hit as they do on block. This tends to create magical moments in time when both combatants are in melee range of each other, at least one has a lunge on cooldown, and both regain the ability to act at the exact same time. I call these magical moments in time "critical points," and they are the most important points in time that exist in Age of Wushu. Next time, you will get to learn about this -- the most important lesson in Age of Wushu. I will leave you only with the words I said on my Twitter about this lesson:
"Outside of a moment, you can only react."
Age of Wushu is a wonderous place, full of hidden secrets, incredible vistas and fearsome martial arts. Join Patrick as he journeys through China, revealing the many secrets of this ancient land. The Ming Dynasty may be a tumultuous time, but studying The Art of Wushu will give you the techniques you need to prevail.

Michigan fans love Brady Hoke. Absolutely love him. Before the Wolverines' game with Akron, a skywriter penciled Hoke's name into the sky over Michigan Stadium. Later, Hoke received an ovation from the crowd for providing students with donuts before the game's noon kickoff. He is a "Michigan man", who returned home to save the program after the nightmarish Rich Rodriguez disaster and, over his first two seasons, delivered a BCS bowl bid and wins over Michigan State, Ohio State and Notre Dame. His recruiting has stood toe-to-toe with Urban Meyer in Columbus … and just about any other coach in the country. There is no question — none whatsoever — that Michigan is better off with Hoke at the helm than it was prior to his arrival. But Saturday was a wake-up call to Hoke, the Michigan program and all the Maize and Blue faithful expecting Big Ten championships and national title runs. The Wolverines are far from a perfect product at the moment. And by raising the expectations around Ann Arbor, Hoke made performances like Michigan's nail-biting 28-24 win over a hapless Akron program completely unacceptable. "They played harder than we did. They played more error free than we did," Hoke said. "You can't win championships that way." Senior captain Taylor Lewan, who eschewed the 2013 NFL Draft to return for his final season, agreed: "We didn't prepare as a team, that is truly embarrassing for the University of Michigan that we came out like that. It's not fair to the fans, it's not fair to the people associated to this program. It's not fair to the players on this team that aren't playing." Hoke's nowhere near the hot seat. He's going to be the head coach at Michigan for as long as he wants to be, barring some unforeseen collapse — one that his incredible work on the recruiting trail should stave off for years to come. So don't take this as anything more than what it is: an understanding, for all parties involved, that Michigan can ill-afford pathetic showings like it had against Akron if it wants to be considered a national power again. On the same afternoon that Michigan was barely holding off a team that had three wins over the past three seasons and hadn't downed a Big Ten foe in more than a century, Ohio State was romping past Cal despite starting its backup QB. Now, the Bears are a long way from the Oregons and Alabamas of the world, but certainly the Wolverines should take notice of that Buckeyes' performance. That's what title contenders are supposed to do — pummel an overmatched foe, home or away, then move on to the next game. The Buckeyes had their own close calls during a 12-0 2012 season: Cal, Michigan State, Indiana and Purdue all pushed them to their limits (as did Wisconsin and Michigan). Teams are going to have off games, afternoons when they're not as emotionally ready. The really elite teams push through those afternoons, then use the lessons learned to make themselves better. Hoke's test now is making sure that happens. To take the frustration and shock of Michigan's "embarrassing" show and turn it into a way to get better. Since arriving back on campus, Hoke has preached that his program needs to strive for Big Ten titles and beyond. Up until Akron pushed the Wolverines to the very limit, just about every Michigan fan tagged along for that ride, totally confident that Hoke would get his team where he wanted it to go. Even though the Wolverines have struggled away from home and against top-flight competition in Hoke's brief tenure, the Zips cast the first real doubt into the minds of the Maize and Blue faithful that Hoke regarding Hoke being destined to succeed. There remain far more positives than negatives in place for the Wolverines, many of them there because of Hoke's efforts. He knows — and Michigan fans will not hesitate to remind him — that performances like Saturday's simply will not cut it.

text: We visited here on a recommendation from a friend when staying in Felixstowe. We have eaten in a lot of indian restaurants as its our favourite food, I have to say this one is definitely at the top of my list. The food was delicious. We had poppadums and pickles and I don't know what the red pickle was (looked like tikka onion!) but it was very nice. For mains we tried dishes off the specials menu and they were really tasty. The kids had chicken tikka and were asking for more, always a good sign. The garlic naans were very nice too - nice and light and crispy just how we like them (not stodgy like some). The service was very good and the ambience of the restaurant was lovely. It was also very clean. They were wiping chairs down as well as the tables as soon as diners had left and they even scraped the table after you had thrown rice all over (the kids of course) so you weren't enjoying after dinner drinks with your elbows in the debris. Would highly recommend it to anyone and if we were locals we would be there every week!

Based on the friendliness and helpful attitude of the owner and staff, I would love to recommend this hotel. Location is very good, just one block from the beach. The outside "hangout" area at the back was convenient for us traveling as a group. The lovely owner had tips and recommendations for just about anything we could ask and was...
The room was small and over a noisy main road. The biggest complaint was the poor quality of the mattress with springs digging through.
We were 'accidently' overcharged at the end, however this was quickly corrected when I queried the amount.
Review collected in partnership with Easytobook.com
We were a group of 5 and stayed for 4 nights. We had three rooms right by each other, with an outdoor space set aside just for our use. It was ideal having that space as we could hang out and have a drink together before heading out. The rooms were clean and functional. The bathroom was a bit cramped...
Hello from Russia, from Elya and Stas... This august was wonderful.
Giovanni, thank you for hospitality, for advices...
No condition - but ceiling fan
Price is little hi - but the service good
A little noise from a street - but very close to sea
The hotel is situated close the beach and promenade and about 5 blocks from the train station. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed. The owner (Giordano?) went out of his way to help us with every conceivable need: directions, wine choosing, sight seeing, transportation to other cities....This was the beginning of our stay in Italy and an...
Spent two nights here for Carnival. Great location just one block back from the seaside, very friendly and welcoming owners who really went out of their way to help me experience their town in winter. Lovely simple Italian breakfast of excellent coffee and pastries. Very clean and somewhere I will probably stay at again.

Minus World is a serial novel written by Sean J. Jordan and published weekly on the 1Up.com Bonus Level blog and http://www.seanjjordan.com. The story begins here. For more information about Minus World, please click here.
Fenrir awoke on a field of green grass, lying on his side.
The place looked like something out of an illuminated manuscript. The colors were vivid and bright, and he could see hills, cliffs and waterfalls in the distance. And a haze of color, too – he squinted and realized that was a rainbow.
A butterfly fluttered before him, its dainty blue wings making small swoosh noises in the air. Fenrir's eyes followed it, and as it moved out of his field of vision, he rolled on to his belly and sat up, tail wagging slightly, watching the majestic creature waft on to some distant destination. It had been a long time since he had seen a rainbow or a butterfly, and he had been too dull in those days to appreciate the sight. Now that he was gifted with the canine senses of his curse, he found himself fascinated. Part of him longed to run across the meadows, chasing the butterfly with his tongue hanging free. He had never been a puppy, and he wondered now what it would be like to simply roll in the grass and sniff the flowers scattered about around him.
And then the butterfly passed over Malleus's unconscious body, laying there on the grass.
Fenrir's focus returned, and he rose to his feet, skulking towards Malleus on all fours with his teeth bared, snarling at his fallen foe. Malleus didn't stir.
And Fenrir was an opportunist.
"Surprised you survived that, Malleus," he said softly, savoring this moment just before his kill. "But you won't live long once I tear out your throat."
He sat back, preparing to spring onto Malleus and to bring an end to their feud. But then, from behind him, he heard an unfamiliar voice.
"Hey, wolf-man…" it was saying. "Time to get lost." A strange voice, not quite that of a man, but not quite that of a boy, either. It had a bit of a whine to it, a grating quality that made the hair on the back of Fenrir's neck stood up.
He looked around quickly, and saw what appeared to be a cat looking back at him from a few dozen meters, standing up on two legs and wearing goggles. The creature was dressed in odd, form-fitting clothing with a blue stripe down the side and baring a small cannon of some sort. Fenrir snarled again, wondering how quickly he could scare off this strange feline and get back to business.
"Don't move, Malleus," he said. "This won't take long."
Fenrir turned and began to circle the strange cat creature. It didn't move, but tracked him with its hand cannon. Fenrir realized after a moment that the cannon wasn't in its left hand, but literally a part of it. That was odd. But then, in his journeys tracking Malleus, he'd seen many stranger things than this.
"I've never used this on a living creature before," the cat was saying. "I doubt it would kill you. But I'll bet it really hurts."
Fenrir didn't care if it did. Just as the cat was finishing its sentence, Fenrir lunged towards it, ignoring the strange blue crackling lightning that shot towards him from cat's left hand. The bolt knocked him aside, and he realized as he landed on the ground that he was in great pain. His nose detected some singed hair coming from his side, and he shuffled a bit to adjust himself to the feeling that his weight might be too much for his right foreleg to bear.
"So what's your story?" the cat asked, coolly keeping its hand cannon pointed at him. "Another 'experiment' from Central Computing?"
Fenrir snarled at him, and pushed himself to start circling the cat once more.
Cardea sat up suddenly at the sound of the wolf-man's snarl.
Her eyes locked on the evil creature that had nearly killed Malleus, and she froze in panic as she realized it was directly in front of her. But no, it was moving; its attention was fixated on someone else. Cardea glanced to the right and saw a large armored cat, standing upright like a man, aiming some sort of metal cylinder at the wolf.
"Hey, it's cool," the cat was saying to the wolf. "They messed with me too." It gestured towards the tube. "Cut my arm off and gave me this."
The wolf-man continued to circle, and the cat continued to track him with the tube. Cardea wondered if perhaps it housed some sort of blade. She had never seen anything like it.
"But I got away," the cat continued, "and now, if it clanks, I destroy it." It grinned at the wolf-man. "You dig?"
The wolf shifted its pace and turned in the other direction, offering little more than a menacing growl.
"Calm yourself, Fenrir," a voice said, seemingly from thin air. It sounded familiar to Cardea, and as she tried to recall where she'd heard it, a man appeared in the air above them, floating quite confidently despite his heavy black and white armor and flowing crimson cape.
A man with long white hair.
The cat looked up in surprise, turning its tube towards this new figure, and Cardea's darted down in horror as they tracked the motion of the wolf-man, Fenrir, lunging forward and knocking the cat over onto its back. And suddenly, Fenrir's weight was holding the cat down, and his fearsome jaw was mere inches from the cat's throat. Cardea's fingers inched towards her sword, which was lying on the ground next to her. She knew she'd have to act quickly.
"Finish this quickly," said the man with the white hair as he descended towards the ground. "We have other business to attend to."
The man didn't react as Cardea leapt up from the ground, sword in hand, and twisted him around so her blade was at his throat. But Fenrir looked up with a surprised snarl, and that was all that mattered.
"Stop," she ordered. "Or this guy dies too."
The man with the white hair seemed entirely unbothered by her threat. "You think so, do you?" he said. Cardea was fairly certain now that his pulse hadn't even risen. "You have no idea how to kill me," he continued, "and even if you did…"
He moved faster than any opponent she'd ever seen, grabbing her sword arm by the elbow and somehow twisting her around so that she was down on the ground, unable to move. The hold didn't hurt, but it certainly made her feel outmatched.
"…You wouldn't have a chance," the man finished. "Finish off the cat, Fenrir, so you can move on to Malleus."
Cardea saw something moving out of the corner of her eye, and she somehow managed to twist away from the man as some strange magical blast slammed straight into him. She turned on the ground as she scampered backwards and saw a look of surprise creep onto the man's face as he quickly turned to stone.
"I have a better idea," Malleus said from behind her. "Forget about the cat." Cardea heard a chain whip unfurling onto the ground as Fenrir snarled in surprise. "Take care of me first."
Fenrir didn't waste any time; he leapt off the cat and bounded over Cardea in a crazed lunge towards Malleus. But Malleus was ready, and with a quick snap of his wrist, he wrapped the chain whip around the wolf's neck and slammed Fenrir into the ground next to the surprised stone statue of the man with the white hair.
Malleus retracted his whip, and Fenrir shook off some of the daze he was surely feeling. "This isn't over, Malleus," he said. "Sooner or later, I will hunt you down." Of course, it didn't look like Fenrir would be hunting down much of anything at the moment. He was panting quite heavily, and his side was singed, for some reason. But before Malleus could react, Fenrir darted off and away, clearly retreating to lick his wounds and bide his time.
This didn't seem to bother Malleus at all. "Are you all right, Cardea?" he asked, though his eyes remained on Fenrir's fleeing form.
Cardea grabbed her sword and scampered up to stand next to Malleus. "I've been better," she said. "Any idea who these guys are?"
"The wolf's an old enemy of mine," Malleus said. "The statue, I've never seen before."
Cardea nodded. "Yeah, how'd you do that?" she asked, gesturing towards the statue.
Malleus offered a thin, mysterious smile. "Gorgon spell," he said. "Comes in handy from time to time. It should hold for a day or two." He nodded to the side, still keeping his attention on the horizon. "Who's the cat?"
"No idea," Cardea confessed.
The cat must have been listening to them, because he sat up and gave Cardea and apologetic look. "The name's Streax," he said. "And I don't have a clue what's going on here."
They left the statue of the white-haired man behind as they began walking, following Streax's lead across the lush green meadow. Malleus had little to say, and seemed preoccupied with watching for Fenrir as Cardea attempted to explain what had happened. Streax listened carefully, and when she was done, he nodded as if he understood.
"So what you're telling me," he said," is that you're both from another world." He jammed his right thumb up in the air, as if pointing behind them. "And so are the statue and the wolf-guy."
Cardea nodded.
"Hmmm," Streax mused. "I hope this doesn't cause any problems."
"What do you mean?" Cardea asked.
"You're not part of the system," Streax said. "The humans in this world died off years ago. And none of them looked like either of you."
Malleus's souring expression revealed his immediate irritation. "We didn't come here by choice," he said, "and we don't plan to stay long. As soon as we can figure out how to leave, we will."
"Good," said Streax. "But first, we need to track down the wolf-guy."
"Why?" demanded Malleus, who appeared to be growing more irritated by the minute.
"Because if we don't the Collective will," said Streax. "And that's something we definitely don't want."
"What's the Collective?" Cardea asked.
"The Central Computing Collective," Streax said. "It's a giant mechanical hive-mind that assimilates everything in its path."
Cardea glanced over at Malleus. He had a dark look on his face now.
"I don't understand a word he's saying," she said to Malleus. "Do you?"
"Not really," Malleus said in a dour tone.
Streax smiled. They were approaching a ridge now, and he stepped out in front of them. "Look," he said, pointing over the ridge. And as they stepped up to its summit, they saw.
Streax had led them to the edge of the meadow, to the edge of anything green, really. Beneath them lay a sprawling city of gray metal and grinding machinery, extending off towards the horizon, the sky above it a dull and lifeless yellow. There was movement below, but it all seemed to be mechanical, as if there were some sort of city here, but no people to live within it. The flicker of fire dotted the scene in small bursts of random punctuation. And yet there seemed to be a pattern to it all, as if some greater mind had planned all of this.
Cardea felt as if the warm air from the meadow had suddenly vanished, and a strange chill ran down her spine. Malleus stood with his arms crossed, seemingly indifferent.
"A few years ago, this was a forest," said Streax. "But once the Collective moved in, it absorbed everything. The plants and trees were reclaimed by nanomachines and turned into energy." He paused. "And the animals…". Now he paused again, and looked down at his left arm.
"I was able to escape before they installed the slave chip in my brain," he said in a far softer tone. "A lot of my friends weren't so lucky."
Cardea looked over at Malleus and realized her uncertainty must be written as clearly on her own face as apathy was on his.
"This place is weird," she said. "I think we're in over our heads."
"Agreed," Malleus said with a nod. "We'd best track down Fenrir and find our way back."
"I can help you find the wolf, no problem," Streax said. "But what do you plan to do once you've caught him?" He gestured upwards with his right hand. "It looked to me like you fell out of the sky."
Malleus looked at Cardea now, as if he expected her to offer some brilliant explanation. She found it slightly annoying. "What?" she demanded. "What are you looking at me for?"
"You're the one who brought us here," Malleus said with a pointed tone.
"It wasn't like I meant to!" Cardea protested. "I was just trying to save your life!"
Malleus offered a long sigh. "We'll figure it out later," he said. "Fenrir is probably licking his wounds, waiting for the moonlight to arrive and heal him. If we're going to capture him, we'll need to do it before dark. In his weakened state, it shouldn't prove too difficult."
Streax's ears perked up suddenly, and he glanced towards the yellow horizon above the gray city below.
"Uh-oh," he said, and then gave a heavy sigh. "Actually, the situation just got a bit trickier…"
And with that, he gestured for them to follow, and took off running back down the ridge, and then following the hilly meadow down towards the city. Cardea and Malleus tried to follow, but it became quickly clear that the cat was far too fast for them to keep up.
"Hey!" Cardea finally shouted. "Wait up!"
Streax stopped and waited for them to catch up to him. "Sorry," he said. "The Collective gave me some 'enhancements,' including speed boosters. I'll try to keep my pace down to a jog."
He started running again, hardly slower than before. "Wait!" called Cardea, and she and Malleus pushed on after him, really following the dust trail he'd left behind more than any sight of him. A few minutes later, they reached him at the bottom of the hill, where he was standing just outside the line that divided the green and natural world from the edge of the mechanical city. The border between the two areas seemed to be wriggling slightly, as if the mechanized city were slowly devouring the natural world around it.
"It's the assimilation line," said Streax, pointing down. "The Collective spreading its influence, a billion nanomachines at a time."
Cardea and Malleus were both breathing heavily. Streax gave them a quick grin and said, "Let me let you guys catch your breath," before he turned and looked into the city, ears perked up again. Cardea welcomed the break, and placed her hands on her knees as she gulped in as much air as her body would allow. She could taste the slight sulfur of the air from the assimilation line leaking over into the meadow. That slight bit was enough to make her cough. She couldn't imagine how bad things must be within the city.
"Just as I suspected," Streax said finally. "This isn't good. The wolf got picked up by a patrol, and he's being taken to the city for processing." He looked over towards them, lowering his ears. "Assuming he survives that, he'll be taken to the lab for assimilation."
"I'm afraid to ask," Cardea said, "but how do you know?"
"Easy," Streax said. "When I was processed, the Collective inserted a biochip that allows my mind to access the central network. I'm not conditioned to be a part of it, so I can't understand a lot of the information that comes across. But I can usually catch enough to get the gist of what's going on."
"Easy, of course," muttered Malleus sarcastically. Cardea sympathized, but she also knew that it'd be no good to try to face this Collective without having some understanding of what it was. And besides, some of what the cat was saying made sense.
"I think I'm starting to understand," she said. "So if the Collective a-simple-ates Fenrir…"
"Assimilates," Streax corrected her.
"Right," Cardea said. "They're going to give him arms like yours."
Streax nodded. "Or worse," he said. "If he survives the procedures – and I'm sure with my luck, he will! – he'll be faster, stronger and able to endure a lot more punishment." He paused for a moment, as if he was contemplating some even darker vision. "They may even fit him with lasers," he said. "And trust me, you don't want that."
Malleus crossed his arms and looked away from the two of them, as if he'd heard enough of this foolishness. "Let him grow stronger, if he likes," he said. "Fenrir has hunted me for as long as I remember, and never once has he managed to best me."
And then, solemnly, he said, "I welcome the challenge."
"Yeah, well," said Streax. "What are you going to beat him with? Your whip?" Malleus didn't respond, so Streax continued. "That might cut it in your world, but in this one, swords, knives and whips aren't going to do a lot of good against an armored opponent. You need firepower."
Malleus tossed back his coat and grabbed his whip. He cracked it quickly, lashing it out in a fiery arc of magic. Cardea and Streax hopped back in surprise as Malleus offered a maniacal smile.
"Fire?" he asked.
He extended his left hand and fired a bolt of lightning towards the ground.
"Thunder?" he asked again.
Then, he reached up with his left fist and slammed it into the ground, causing the ground beneath them all to tremble.
"Earthquakes?" he asked.
The maniacal smile seemed to intensify as he leveled his gaze on the two of them.
"I can handle myself," he concluded.
"Wow," was all Cardea could say.
Streax smirked. "All right, then," he said. "Let's keep moving. We've got a lot of ground to cover."
The three crossed over the assimilation line into the mechanical city, with Streax leading the way.
The statue of the man with white hair was still standing in the meadow where they'd left it hours before. A pair of butterflies rested on the statue's outstretched hand.
"I just had a thought," said Cardea as they trudged through the mechanical city. "We're leaving that statue behind. Do you think the spell will hold until we get back?
"It's strong magic," said Malleus. "It'll hold."
The statue started to crack around the fingers, and the palm of its hand shook slightly. The butterflies flew off just as flecks of stone began to crumble towards the ground.
"Come on, you two," Steax said, gesturing deeper into the heart of the mechanical city. "We don't have time to worry about that."
The stone statue seemed to explode now, with bits and pieces of rock flying everywhere. And there, in the cloud of dust that formed, stood the man with white hair.
He looked around darkly, observing that everyone was gone. He would find them again. And with that thought, he began to glow as he placed his thoughts elsewhere. Within a moment, he was gone.
Cardea, Malleus and Streax are in for an incredible fight when they finally face the Collective... and they're in for a nasty surprise when they find Fenrir! Don't miss it!.

Spot UV for Binders, Folders, and Boxes
UV coatings are one of the range of print finishes and textures that you can use to make your art jump off of the page (or binder). We have found that a lot of designers haven't worked with these finishes a lot, so we are offering a little series on print finishes.
What is spot UV and how can I use it on my binders, folders, and boxes?
UV (ultraviolet) Coatings start as a clear liquid that is dried or cured with an ultra violet light. This is printed in-line on a UV press. This is often seen in a gloss or matte, though it is available in textures (like sandpaper among others). While you can flood an entire piece with UV, we most often see it used in spot coverage, highlighting text and images, or in the case of the image above, the spot UV IS the text. Subtle, but effective.
If you are printing a pocket folder, binder or box, you are probably laminating your materials to protect the whole piece from the rough and tumble life marketing materials go through. The nice thing about spot UV is that it can be applied after the lamination offering more opportunities to pop your art even more.
Get more Information on Spot UV and see some more examples here!
Using Print to Attract Customers (like Moths to a Flame)
"We gain interested people through our online campaigns. We gain customers when we get our materials in their hands…"
Grab a cup of coffee. Let's talk.
In a world of sensory overload, communicating by touch is the only way to connect emotionally with your customers.
Print is fun for us because it offers so many things just on the production end. From the craft, the smell, the feel of good paper, everyone in our building has a strong connection to our products.
The thing is, that same connection works for you too.
People respond to tactile things. There is a deep need to feel, to touch, that stimulates different parts of the brain than visual stimulation alone. Even if you are a completely online company, the chances are you can gain more clients and customer by having print materials.
Experience enhances information
Perception is an active process. To "be in touch with" a product, company or person is a primary urge. Our first intelligence is sensory refinement.
Printed materials offer a chance to present your brand quality, strength, and other qualities (eco friendly, glossy, solid, trustworthy) through a second channel. What you say can be backed up through more primal clues that reinforce and strengthen the logical arguments.
Print offers permanence
The sad truth is, people surf and are very distracted online. It is a busy, shifting medium. A well designed print piece creates a more focused, concentrated way to engage your customer's time and attention.
Once it is read, that 3 ring binder can sit on a shelf for reference. This shelf presence means you are always in front of your audience, even when the power goes out.
Print builds confidence
Whether you are showcasing building products for the contract industry, handing client's financial information, or providing medical information, the experience, quality and solidity of your marketing materials gives your customers confidence.
Corporate Image has been in the business of printing and manufacturing presentation materials for over 30 years. Their products have won awards from Best Binder in the World to GDUSA packaging awards and CMA awards. We specialize in 3-ring binders, pocket folders, presentation binders and boxes of all sorts. Our products are sustainable, recyclable and printed with soy inks.
Custom Corrugate and Paperboard Boxes
Should your Sales Boxes and Marketing Kits be corrugate boxes or paper board?
When you are looking for boxes for sales kits, information packets or sample marketing kits it helps to know more about your materials, possibilities and printing options.
The world of boxes is vast – do you need a corrugate box to help architectural samples or a heavy paper stock that can hold patient information kits or a bottle of perfume?
Put Some Punch into Your Presentation
The outside of your presentation helps sell what's inside
Corporate Image specializes in creating custom packaging that holds materials for presentations and proposals. In fact, our printing presses are dedicated to printing folders, boxes and custom binders and not what goes inside the package. This keeps us focused on printing and producing the best possible products to represent your company and make you standout in the marketplace.

Anybody have any guesses as to what happens to Samsung if Little Long #$%$ in N.Korea invades S. Korea. Looks like the escalation continues and N. Korea is now refusing S. Korea workers in their plants. If they hit Samsung plants which I believe would be high value targets, what happens to their supply chain and AAPL supply chain? Who would be left to supply AAPL and Samsung parts? Only serious replys please.
All of this is because he wants a free Samsung Galaxy S4. Once he gets it, this will all go away.
Kim Jon Un is really angry about sanctions against his country and not wanting to look like a weak ruler he's talking up a big game of war and all other types of things he's not able to deliver on. His idle threats are getting a bit hallow now. If there is anything to take away from this it's the loud talking when you've got an empty hand, kinda like what you see coming from Jen-Hsun Huang at NVidia.
Samsung factory will burn hotter then a Exynos chip.
Obviously Samsung and Apple would be F**Ked. But the day N Korea did target S Korea, trust me your few shares in INTC will be the least of your worries so lets move on..
if he used a nuke he and his wing nuts would all be dead in hours.

Ka 'Ba
A closed window looks down
on a dirty courtyard, and black people
call across or scream or walk across
defying physics in the stream of their will
Our world is full of sound
Our world is more lovely than anyone's
tho we suffer, and kill each other
and sometimes fail to walk the air
We are beautiful people
with african imaginations
full of masks and dances and swelling chants
with african eyes, and noses, and arms,
though we sprawl in grey chains in a place
full of winters, when what we want is sun.
We have been captured,

Saying, "Happy Martin Luther King" day just doesn't feel right. And it is mostly because I lived through those days and they were not happy days.

Bergenfield was mostly Irish, Italian and Jewish at that time. But four miles away was a town called Teaneck and riots were occurring there. We heard about it and we were scared. But I am one that believes that celebrating Martin Luther King's life is the right thing to do. His cause was right and just. He fought it courageously and was gunned down way too soon.

Female Incontinence Surgeries Look Equally Effective
Latest Womens Health News
WEDNESDAY, May 19 (HealthDay News) -- Two common surgical procedures for female stress incontinence appear to be equally effective, a new study reveals, but each option carries its own side effects.
Known as mid-urethral slings, the techniques are often used to address stress incontinence or urine loss that results from activities such as coughing, sneezing or laughing.
Urinary incontinence affects about half of all women, noted the research team from the Stritch School of Medicine at Loyola University in Chicago. From 15 to 80% of them have stress incontinence, and 4 to 10% of those women ultimately undergo one of the two surgical procedures.
"These findings give us insight into the complications associated with each procedure, which will allow us to better tailor care to individual patient needs," co-author Dr. Kimberly Kenton, an associate professor in the departments of obstetrics and gynecology and urology, said in a university news release.
The findings, reported in the May 13 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, were to be presented at the annual meeting of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, which concludes May 19, in San Francisco.
For their study, the authors focused on women who were 21 years and older and scheduled for surgery to treat a stress incontinence condition that had been diagnosed at least three months earlier.
Kenton's team first looked at the track record for the retropubic procedure option, in which a sling is placed between the pubic region and the bladder. This method led to urination problems that required further surgery, the researchers found.
They then explored the second surgical option, known as the transobturator procedure, in which a sling is placed near the labia and urethra. This, in turn, appeared to cause neurologic complications, such as upper leg weakness.
Both procedures achieved a cure rate for stress incontinence of between 78 and 81%. And with each option, the related side effects dissipated within a couple of weeks, the study found.
"These findings will help us to bring advances to the millions of women who require surgery for this embarrassing condition," Kenton said.

In my personal opinion, one is never a good rider until you lose track of the amount of times you have fallen off a horse.
So you are one fall on your way to becoming a good rider. Falling off is a wonderful lesson that you don't easily forget.
But I think your trainer should have had proper tack for the pony. Sounds like you were more fighting that than actually riding. And if you don't have tack to fit the horse, jump on bareback!! If you want to learn balance, that's the way to do it, because you cannot rely on anything.
Really, a saddle and bridle actually are unnecessary, but they are helpful tools.

except 2 mnths prior to my probation end date i didnt return to report i turned my self in last week and was OR after 24 hours i have court the 19th how do i avoid another yr of prbation or jail time?
Criminal Defense Attorney
When you say OR do you mean ROR? released on your own recognizance?
By missing meeting with your probation officer, you are at least in technical violation of your probation. You said you turned yourself in, so I assume the probation office already filed for the warrant and petition to revoke your probation. You need to have an attorney negotiate your cases. If the petition for violation of probation granted and your suspended sentence is revoked, you have to serve the 11 months and 29 days less any jail credits you signed up for. The judge has the discretion of reducing the sentence.

Free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk. How Much ?
Else read.NO CAMERA or A/D-box
• Are You sure that You are using the FireWire Cable - USB-Cable will not work for miniDV tape Cameras
FireWire - Sure not using the accompany USB-Cable but bought a 4-pin to 6-pin (or 9-pin) FW one ?
• Test another FW-Cable very often the problem maker.
• Test Your Camera on another Mac so that DV-in still works OK
• Toggle in iMovie pref. Play-back via Camera (on <-> off some times)
• Some Cameras has a Menu where You must select DV-out to get it to work
• Camera connected to "charger" (mains adaptor) - not just on battery
• Camera set in Playback mode - NOT Recording mode
Does Your Camera work on another Mac ?
Sorry to say it is to easy to turn the 6-pin end of the FW-cable 180 deg wrong.
This is lethal to the A/D-chip in the Camera = needs an expensive repair.
(Hard to find out - else than import/export to another Mac ceased to work
everything else is OK e.g. recording and playback to TV)
• Is the dip-switches set right ?
• Set to same standard as recorded/editing e.g. NTSC 29.97fps or PAL 25fps
• Try resetting it
• Daisy Chaining most often doesn't work (some unique cases - it's the only way that work (some Canon Cameras ?))
Try to avoid connecting Camera <--> external HD <--> Mac but import directly to the Mac then move
the Movie project to dedicated external hard disk.
• FireWire-port - Can be re-setted by - Turn off Mac and disconnecting Mac from Mains/Power for 20-30 minutes
External device's (hard disk's)
• Should be FireWire as USB/USB2 performs badly and so does Airport or Net-work connected ones too.
• MUST BE - Mac OS Extended formatted - UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - DO NOT WORK for video due to 4Gb barrier.
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? Please specify the amount of free space.
(Other hard disks don't count)
I go for a minimum of 25Gb free space for 4x3 SD Video - and my guess is 5 times more for 16x9 HD ones
after material is imported and edited.
• Does Your Mac have a FireWire Port
• White MacBooks - don't
• MacBook-Air - don't
if not then a few Mac's has a PCM-CIA slot and there are FW-Cards that makes a FW-port this way
else - NO SOLUTION
Only option as I get it is either
• Use another Mac to Capture material (to an external USB2 - Mac OS Extended formatted hard disk - or -
• Change to another Camera that can be used with Your Mac (no there are no miniDV tape Cameras that can)
• If Your Mac-Book has a PCM-CIA Card place - then there are FW-port-Cards and then
You can import via this - but I've not seen this on more modern Macs. My PowerBook G4
has one and this FW-Card-port works greatly.
• Delete iMovie pref. file may help sometimes. I rather start a new account, log into this and have a re-try.
• Any strange Plug-ins into QuickTime as Perian etc ? Remove and try again.
• FileVault is off ? (hopefully)
• Screen Saver - OFF
• Energy Saver - OFF
Using WHAT versions ? .
• Mac OS - X.5.4 ?
• QuickTime version ? (This is the heart in both iMovie and FinalCut)
• iMovie'08 (7.1.?), 09 or 11 ?
• iMovie HD 6 (6.0.4/3) ?
Other ways to import Your miniDV tape
• Use another Camera. There where tape play-back stations from SONY
but they costed about 2-4 times a normal miniDV Camera.
• If Your Camera works on another Mac. Make an iMovie movie project here and move it
over to Your Mac via an external hard disk.
(HAS TO BE Mac OS Extended formatted - USB/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange WILL NOT DO)
(Should be a FireWire one - USB/USB2 performs badly)
from LKN 1935.
Hi Bengt W, I tried it all, but nothing worked. Your answer has been helpful insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos) to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before. Thank you. LKN 1935
from Karsten.
in addition to Bengt's excellent '9 yards of advice' ..
camera set to 'Play' , not rec/computer/etc.?
camera not on battery, but power-line?
did your Mac 'recognize' this camera before...?
a technical check.
connect camera, on, playback, fw-connected...
click on the Blue Apple, upper left of your screen ..
choose 'About . . / More . .
under Firewire.. what do you read . . ?
• FileVault - Secure that it's turned off
• Network storage - DOESN'T WORK
• Where did You store/capture/import Your project ?
External USB hard disk = Bad Choice / FireWire = Good
If so it has to be Mac OS Extended formatted
----> UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange is NOT Working for VIDEO !
Thanks for all your suggestions. What I learned is that I had a software problem. I had something called "Nikon Transfer" on my Mac that was recognizing my Canon camcorder as a still camera and was preventing iMovie from working properly. After un-installing Nikon Transfer and doing a reboot, everything worked great.
I never liked the Nikon Transfer software anyway--I guess I'll get a cheap card reader and use that to transfer photos in the future.
No Camera or bad import
• USB hard disk
• Network storage
• File Vault is on

if you have adobe cs3 or 4 and have the adobe bridge on close that
or no firewire will work
see if that helps

The problem was the external backup hard drive that is connected, you need to disconnect the external drive before the mac can see the video camera.

Maybe your problems is solved in the meantime, but for all others this might help as I had the same problem, also have the Sony HDR-HC7, but the 7e (Europe, PAL). I found this link today and it works perfectly
//support.sony-europe.com/tutorials/dime/videotransfer/vtransfer.aspx site=odw_en_GB&sec=DVH&m=HDR-HC7E
What I exactly did.- put camera in play mode - open guide - choose connection guide - choose comp./printer (where to transfer movie to) - select connection.- i-link (on my camera) but equal to firewire - OK - choose HDV - choose NO for conversion of i.link.
Settings are shown then (VCR HDV/DV.- HDV and i.link-conv..- OFF), press OK, OK, END.
Switch camera off. Connect firewire cable to camera & Mac. Switch camera on, in play/edit mode.
Open i-movie, choose import from camera. On screen below the camera connection is shown.- DV (HDV). Now you can import, automatically or manually.
This worked perfectly for me. Took me 2 days to find out. Could not find any clear thread explaining what I had to do on the camera and the manual was not clear either.

I don't use a camera just a straight connection from my Imac to the ADVC-300 converter and then directly to the TV.
Plenty of internal hard drive space. 93gigs.
I have a 3 firewires port on my Imac, but am connecting via an external firewire box/port with many connectors. And I always have. I have never connected from the ADVC-300 converter straight to the Imac but always used an external firewire port.
Sorry, but none of the above seems to apply to my situation.

If you are working with HD material, firewire out does not work.
All you will see is a still image once playback has been paused.

The possibilities include the following. It helps to methodically check all the possiblities - sometimes problems crop up in the least expected places.
- FCE > View > Video Out - may need to be refreshed
- Editing a non-DV sequence (HDV or AVCHD, aka AIC) - check your sequence settings. Canvas display via FW out only works with DV
- Contention among multiple FW devices - disconnect ALL FW devices except your ADVC & try it by itself
- Unrendered sequence in FCE - do Sequence > Render All > Both (FCE will only render what is currently undrendered)
- Loose or bad cable(s)
- ADVC300 issue - try powering it off, then back on
- Bad FW port(s) - unlikely, but a possibility
- System overloaded - unlikely, but a possibility. Especially check available space on your system HD - what is the total size of your internal drive and the % free space?
- Recent updates/upgrades - any software or hardware changes/upgrades?
And sometimes it just helps to completely shut down & restart your entire system.

Usually when a company releases a product containing with a worm, it's not a good thing. But when that WORM comes in all caps, the nomenclature takes a whole different meaning. In this case, SanDisk has developed a card that can be written to only one time, after which it becomes a read-only card. That's not something that will appeal to home users, but SanDisk's WORM (Write Once Read Many) media means police and courtrooms no longer need to reject SD cards as evidence for fear of tampering.
Potential uses for WORM cards include police witness and suspect interviews, cash registers, electronic voting, security cameras, in-flight 'black boxes,' medical devices containing patient information, and anything else where a permanent one-time write would be desirable. Once written to, SanDisk claims the new cards will retain the data for up to 100 years. "As digital media volume has grown and surpassed traditional analogue media such as film and audio cassettes in the consumer market, law enforcement agencies and other professionals are facing rising costs and lack of supply," said Christopher Moore, director of product marketing for OEM memory cards at SanDisk.
The SD cards currently come in 128MB versions, but beefier WORMs are expected later this year. Yummy.

Hi there guys!
To make a long story short, I recently purchased some shimano 7900 10 speed indexed barcons on ebay, hoping to upgrade my Miyata touring bike for an upcoming trip. As bad luck would have it, I found out after they arrived that shimano has dropped friction shifting from its most recent series of barcons.
I've decided to stick with the barcons, because the drivetrain is in need of some modernization, but I am trying to do it on the cheap.
I currently have a full RSX setup. 3x7 brifters, RSX FD and RSX long cage rear derailleur.
If I buy a 10 speed (11-30) tiagra cassette and 10 speed chain, will I be able to use the RSX long cage rear with everything?
Does older RSX gear have the same pull ratio as current 9/10 speed shimano road components?
Alternately, can anyone recommend a cheap way of upgrading my system?

Rock on. It's so awesome to see something finally be turned around. I'm so used to natural farmers being put out of business by "conventional" owners for "stealing their seeds, etc". It's nice that there's finally some balance.
