Spark Email " Life is like a marathon. We run and run, not knowing where (or how far) the finish line lies. We focus so intensely on prolonging the race but sometimes--despite our best efforts--the race is cut short. Too often we don't relish the path of and enjoy the details instead of just pounding the pavement of life. What personal boundaries can you expand to help you enjoy your life? Today meditate on the simple joys: a warm bath, reading a book to a sleepy toddler, or spending quality time with your family and friends. All of life contains bumps in the road such as losing your job or an unforeseen illness. But it is up to us to determine the quality of our lives. Remember, we don't always determine the distance, but we can determine the path. "

Spark Friends
Some people come into our lives and quickly go;
Some people move our souls to dance; they awaken us to new understanding
With the passing whisper of their wisdom;
Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon.
Friends share simple, ordinary times in our lives,
Moments that become memories that stay in our hearts forever
... And we will never, ever be the same.
Friendship is a strange thing ...
It is by chance we met, by choice we became friends;
We find ourselves telling each other the deepest details of our lives,
things we don't even share with our families who raised us.
But what is a friend? A confidant? A lover? A fellow email junkie?
A shoulder to cry on? An ear to listen? A heart to feel?
A friend is ALL of these things and more;
No matter where we met, I call you "friend":
A word so small ... yet so large in feeling ... a word filled with emotion.
Once the package of friendship has been opened,
It can never be completely closed;
It is a constant book always waiting to be read ... and enjoyed.
We may have disagreements,
We may argue, we may concern one another ...
Friendship is a unique bond that lasts through it all.
A part of me is put into my friends: some is my humor, some is my listening ear,
Some is real life experience, some is my romanticism, but with all, it is FRIENDSHIP ...
Thanks for making a difference in my life!

Sometimes what we need to do is to take the road less traveled.
The Road Less Traveled
by Robert Frost (1874-1963)
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Inspiration is the time between when you start to run,
And when you stop to catch your breath.
Its when you feel most broken and, a friend lends you a helping hand so that you can mend.
When you feel like you've failed too many times, yet you still try again. When you want nothing more but to throw something out of a window but you smile and say, "That's okay maybe next time." instead.
Those days when you just wish you could get a moments time to yourself-- then you remember all of the love and support you have from family and friends...
When you decide tomorrow will be better will be better but today wasn't so bad. When some random stranger smiles at you when your having a bad day...

Okay one more borrowed song lyric
love the lyrics from David Cook's song (2008 American Idol). I'm inspired every time I hear it!:
"The Time of My Life"
I been waiting for my dreams to turn into something I could believe in
And I'm looking for the magic rainbow on the horizon I couldn't see it
Until I let go, gave in love, watched all the bitterness burn
Now I'm coming alive body and soul
Feeling my world start to turn
And I'll taste every moment and live it out loud
I know this is the time; this is the time to be
More than a name or face in the crowd
I know this is the time; this is the time of my life
The time of my life
Holding onto things and vanish them to the air left me in pieces
But now I'm rising from the ashes finding my wings
And all that I needed was there all along within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart
A mouth on the edge of forever ready to roar
Keeping my feet on the ground my arms open wide faces the sun
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
- Church billboard in Kentucky

Okay, so Kemious and I were having this discussion in chat a bit, as to why RFA should only trigger the SP penalty if the unit is base level 5 or higher (AKA veteran folrart paladin/equivalent and onward).
Basically, the idea is that the costs to use that SS aren't just in the SP price of the grim and the SP penalty afterwards, but the cost of not using the set phase to play another, generally useful unit, as well as the fact that you're not using an SS that can do something else, maybe even better (against a rush), such as Rasam or Diondora.
Essentially, my argument is as follows:
The set phase has some SP-equivalent value. For instance, if you have 10 SP, you can't drop 3 level 3s in one turn. For bigs, that's not such a big issue. For rushes, not dropping a unit is a pretty big issue. IE, if I'm playing a miracle fruit in my Gowen rush, I'm not taking that turn to drop Belltia, for example. So the opportunity cost of that set phase, spent playing miracle fruit, is greater than 0 SP. We pegged it at 1 SP.
Next, you obviously have the SP cost of a grim (which you don't get back) if you're setting up RFA or an engage-removal SS, or at the least, an SP lock if you're playing a great spirit for agility manipulation SSs. In RFA's case, this is 1. And even if regular Prim raised all levels by 3, if you view SP lock at say, 25% of the value of a unit's SP cost (because there is some opportunity cost to having Allind sit on the field instead of dead and giving you your SP back for Gowen grimspam), there's some SP cost in that. So let's just put that at 1 SP.
Next, you have to keep in mind that you're using a removal SS in that slot, and not some other SS that could be beneficial for you. For instance, if you're using 2 RFAs, what you're *not* using is, say, Chamail->SK2 SS (or Olvaus SS). Or Diondora and Rasam SSs, such as in Worthing's Gowen rush file. Those other SSs have a certain value to them. For instance, knight of the 2nd shrine SS can be compared to fairy dance SS (and often times is better). If you compare Rasam SS to the single-target (or even multitarget engage grims), her SP equivalent value is through the roof. EG if there was a Falkow grim that stated "engage two target enemy units until the end of next turn", how much would it cost? I'd wager 3 SP at least. (Not saying to nerf it though =P). Diondora's SS is a flanking attack combined with 40 damage. So it's at least a 2 SP value.
So basically, the opportunity cost of not using Rasam/Diondora/Zalzagul/Gafc/other tier 1 SS is 2 SP.
So, when all is said and done, why are removal SSs so bad against rushes?
Set phase cost: 1 SP.
Playing whatever it is during that set phase to set up the SS: 1 SP.
SS slot value: 2 SP.
Now this is before we even factor in the -SP next turn of the SSs themselves. For Raste/Metia/Ladol/Bastandora, this is -2. For RFA, this is -1. For deep squid and Nereis, this is -1. Thankfully, for Miandela and Astaforse, the testing team didn't lose their minds yet, and they're still at 0.
So, let's do some scenarios:
Needing to trigger Nereis/Deep squid is basically a 4 SP endeavor always. 1 SP set phase, 1 SP spent on setting the unit (you get it back at the cost of LP, but the immediate hit is to your SP), and a 2 SP SS value. Needing to fruit to hit RFA is a 4-5 SP value, depending on if you have the Gowen sphere or not. Of course, this is also under the assumption in the case of Nereis/Deep squid that you're playing Falkow and already have the spheres for undine/sylph.
Double RFA: if you need to sphere up, this is currently an 8 SP endeavor. 2 SP to set the fruit, 2x2 SP SS slots, and -1 SP x2. If you don't need to trigger it, it's a 3 SP value in each case (meaning you return a level 5)
Set 6 non-Lawt agi SSs: if you have to trigger these, they're a 6 SP value when all is said and done. If you don't need to trigger them manually, 4 SP.
So then why do some files use these SSs? Because some files actually manage to mitigate the costs ahead of time. For instance, Lawtia can abuse sin SSs because it doesn't play units specifically to be sin fodder. Rats and succubi have amazing opens, which are far better than a great spirit can be in the case of EN. Next, Falkow can use the agility manipulation SSs first and foremost because it already has the sphere to trigger the great spirits, and also because Falkow, being, well, *Falkow*, already has access to returns and tidals so that it can efficiently deal with rushes.
This is why it's generally extremely stupid for Lawtia rushes to use removal SSs outside of EN, unless we're talking about Belfyna dolls, to use assassin to conserve LP--namely because landing an exchange of souls for 3 SP will generally net you about as much of an SP advantage as hitting a sin SS, when all is said and done, the only issue being that the Lawtia player has to predict when his opponent will leave SP floating in the open phase. Also, a Lawtia player can set up the death's embrace+bitter destiny combo, which also can provide a greater SP advantage than hitting a removal SS.
Mostly though, it's basically the idea that if not for the existence of units that are "all eggs in one basket" types of units, removal SSs would be downright stupid to play. The only time that removal SSs are better than a Diondora SS, IMO, is when the opponent controls a single unit. But that happens readily enough.
Of course, another drawback (especially to the set 6 agility SSs) is that they can backfire very easily if your opponent uses unwanted charity (or now sweet dreams), which is why Nereis or Deep Squid will forever be recommendations in my book over Raste/Metia/Ladol/Bastandora.
So what does this mean?
IMO, removal SSs need to be changed. Yes, they provide a massive advantage vs. bigs, but outside of that realm, they're very lackluster, and due to the fact that there are far better SSs to use vs. tribal rushes, which Alteil seems to be balancing towards, since I feel that everyone and their dog wants some sort of pet tribe to be viable. With Callonia, he wants to **** solar kingdom forever and ever and anyone who uses returns is a cheater. Peralisc and Fargone hate returns in general. Angelspawns wants TGC to be viable. I myself am partial to WK and Merc nation (but concede that merc nation will always suck since it can only do one thing well, which is to hit you at mediocre agility).
So yeah, this is basically a public service announcement that unless you really, really hate bigs, that your best bet isn't to use removal SSs, but go for more generally useful SSs (Rasam!). Furthermore, if you have some sort of cheap, anti-big tech in your file, you don't even need these things at all.
In the meantime, if the testing team wants Gowen rush-type strategies (big red seems to have found a new home with a Refess base for flames of judgment) to see play again, remove the -1 SP from RFA's SS, put a Gowen level condition on Miracle Fruit (Refess has talisman of disruption, Falkow has tidal, Lawtia...not sure why Lawt has nothing yet...maybe a 1 SP that cems 2 level 1s conditional Lawtia 3+?).

- "We're going to put out the story that I'm seriously ill with spattergroit, which is why I can't go back to school. If anyone comes calling to investigate, Mum or Dad can show them the ghoul in my bed, covered in pustules. Spattergroit's really contagious, so they're not going to want to go near him."
- —Ron Weasley[src]
Spattergroit is a highly contagious wizarding disease. It may be a type of fungus, as Ron Weasley mentions that being unable to talk is a common effect of spattergroit "once the fungus has spread to your uvula". A person sick with spattergroit will also get purple pustules over his or her skin and be bedridden, suggesting that fatigue is another symptom. It is potentially fatal.
Harry first learned of the disease in 1995 when he visited Mr. Weasley in St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. While heading for the hospital's tea room, a Healer in a magical portrait diagnosed Ron with the disease, given the "unsightly blemishes" on his skin that would leave him uglier than he already is. The portrait suggested that Ron "take the liver of a toad, bind it tight about his throat and stand naked by the full moon in a barrel of eels' eyes". Ron took this diagnosis as a great offence, and countered that they were only freckles. It is unknown if this treatment actually works.
Ironically, Ron later transfigured the family ghoul to resemble himself infected with the affliction, in order to explain his absence from school. Hence, when he did not appear at Hogwarts for his seventh year, his family could claim that he was too ill to attend, due to the fact that attendance at school was mandatory for that year.

Minnesota's 5th Congressional District is made up primarily of the city of Minneapolis and a few adjoining suburbs. It includes the affluent neighborhoods around Lake Calhoun and Lake Harriet, the University of Minnesota, and the downtown area. However, a large section of the 5th also includes residents with considerably lower incomes. There is no greater DFL stronghold in all of Minnesota than the 5th. DFLer Keith Ellison won election to this seat in 2006, succeeding longtime Rep. Martin Sabo. In 2008, he won re-election with 71 percent of the vote.

Commemorating the Bicentennial
Lewis and Clark began their epic journey up the Missouri River on May 14, 1804, but our nation's bicentennial commemoration of Lewis and Clark's epic journey officially started in January 2003, at Thomas Jefferson's home, Monticello, at Charlottesville, Virginia.
The National Council for the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial has identified 15 "National Signature Events" marking significant milestones, turning points or achievements of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
The first of four national signature events taking place in Missouri is the Three Flags Ceremony. This event, marked for March 10-14, commemorates the transfer of Upper Louisiana from Spain to France to the United States. The event culminates with a ceremony on the Gateway Arch grounds March 14. It will include governors of the Louisiana Territory states and performances by the French Air Force Band and the U.S. Army Band's Old Guard in period dress. For more information contact Dr. Wendell Smith, University of Missouri-St. Louis, St. Louis, (314) 516-5255, or visit online.
From May 14 through May 23, the city of St. Charles will commemorate the national signature event titled, "Preparations Complete, The Expedition Faces West." May 14 also marks the start of the St. Charles 25th Annual Lewis and Clark Heritage Days Festival. You can to see replicas of keelboats and pirogues (canoes made from hollowed tree trunks), see reenactors in period dress, learn about 19thcentury crafts, and taste 19th-century foods.
For more information, contact Venetia McEntire, St. Charles Lewis & Clark Bicentennial Commission, (800) 366-2427, or online.
The event labeled "A Journey Fourth," which is scheduled for July 3-4 in the Kansas City area, marks the first Independence Day observance west of the Mississippi River. In 1804, the expedition celebrated the holiday with two cannon blasts. In 2004, organizers plan nearly three weeks of Lewis and Clark commemorative activities, including an air show and a spectacular fireworks displays.
For more information, contact Emilie Jester, Heart of America: A Journey Fourth, 1100 Main, Suite 2200, Kansas City, (800) 858-1749 or online.
The event marking the return of Lewis and Clark will take place in St. Louis on September 23, 2006.

First Post + decent first Map = Rep
Welcome to The Guild, The Mappiest Place on the Web.
Now about your questions....The fountain thing I think could be solved by either looking for a fountain object that looks like what you want. I would check here (Bogie is one of our resident MOMs (Master Object Makers) ) for ideas or even go and do a Google search for images of one, making sure that you get a top-down one. Once you find something that you like you would just need to mossy and grunge it up a bit.
I like the cliff but it does seem to end abruptly at the water. What you need to do is add some sort of transition between the water and cliffside, and what I suggest is adding some crashing waves and blur the edge of the cliff. I believe you could do the blurring bit by feathering the mask used to create the cliff. Maybe also adding some exposed rocks in the water close to the cliffs might make the transition easier.
Storm tossed sea...maybe darken the waters and adding ripples and then painting some white caps might work.
PS, I am not a PS user so you might want to take my "instructions" as suggestions only and not as technical guidance. I do think the fountain object would be the way to go there though.
**EDIT: I moved your thread into the WIPs because this is where you can get much better feedback than in the General forum.

News 12 First at Five / Monday, April 29, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- GRU school officials say the upgrades to the president's home might not happen this fiscal year. The project could end up costing the school nearly $100,000, and school officials want to keep it at the first price of $75,000.
Dr. Ricardo Azziz might have to wait on home improvements to his state-funded home. The construction plans show updates to the Twin Gables Garage Carport for storage and entertainment space, which the Azziz family requested.
The initial plans were supposed to cost around $75,000. The historic preservation's department requested changes which could come in at $20,000. Schools officials says this is going to put it over budget.
The school paid just more than $23,000 for architect designs. They detail exact measurements and what the changes will be. A second set had to be drawn and sent to Veracity Construction for approval.
The school is now waiting for those plans and a final price tag. The GRU finance and facilities department need to crunch the numbers.
The final approval has to come from the Board of Regents. School officials say the contract has not been fully awarded.

2010 Preview: Cincinnati Reds
- Thursday, March 18, 2010 10:28 AM
- Written By: Andrew Simon
2009: 78-84, 4th in NL Central. Pythagorean record of 76-86.
Key Additions: SP Aroldis Chapman, SS Orlando Cabrera, IF Aaron Miles
Key Losses: IF Adam Rosales, CF Willy Taveras
2010 Projections: PECOTA – 76-86, 5th in NL Central. CHONE – 81-81, 3rd. CAIRO – 85.5-76.5, 2nd (Wildcard).
Pitching: 2009 – 4.63 FIP (26th in MLB), 4.91 for starters, 4.09 for relievers
2010 – Edinson Volquez won't return until late in the season from Tommy John surgery, leaving room for Chapman to make his mark. The Reds need Homer Bailey to step up behind Aaron Harang and Bronson Arroyo.
Hitting: 2009 – .313 wOBA (27th in MLB)
2010 – The infield, led by the highly underrated Votto, should be solid, but the Reds' fortunes rest with the outfield. Willy Taveras and his .275 OBP are gone, which helps. Still, Jay Bruce and Co. have to make some serious strides if the Reds are going to be legitimate playoff contenders.
Fielding: 2009 – UZR of 52.6 (3rd in MLB)
2010 – With back-to-back UZR's of 14 and -15.3, Orlando Cabrera underscores the lack of dependability in one-season UZR totals. He's probably somewhere in between those numbers. His double-play partner Brandon Phillips, however, has put up good numbers three straight years.
Reasons to Watch
1. Aroldis Chapman: .The left-handed Cuban fireballer has been wowing observers so far in Spring Training with his 100-mph heat, his movement and his command. There are two big questions, however. First, where will Chapman begin the season? Second, how will Dusty Baker handle him? The Reds' manager doesn't have the best track record preservingyoung flamethrowers.
2. Joey Votto: He didn't get a lot of attention outside Cincinnati (except when he missed time to deal with depression issues), but Votto put up the fourth-highest wOBA of any player last season, trailing only guys named Pujols, Mauer and Fielder. He might have been a little lucky with a .372 BABIP, but with his blend of power and patience, Votto figures to be an elite first baseman for a while, as long as he is able to stay on the field.
3. The outfield: The Reds have put together an interesting outfield. There's Jay Bruce, a 22-year-old with monstrous power who hasn't quite put it together at the big league level. There's Wladimir Balentien, a former top prospect with the Mariners who has struggled mightily in the majors. There's Drew Stubbs, a former first-round pick with a glowing defensive reputation and solid plate discipline. Plus, the Reds have Chris Dickerson, Jonny Gomes and prospect Chris Heisey. It's a crowded but intriguing situation out there.
Paint By Numbers: Bruce had a strange 2009. Among players with at least 300 plate appearances, he had the third-lowest BABIP (.221) but also the second-lowest line drive rate (13.0 percent). That said, his .246 isolated power was 20th, and he improved his walk and strikeout rates from the year before. It would hardly be surprising if 2010 turned out to be a breakout year for Bruce. ... Aaron Harang has compiled a record of 12-31 the last two seasons after going 32-17 in 2006-07. True, he's giving up more home runs and walks and getting fewer strikeouts, but his FIP last year was a decent 4.14. For the sake of comparison, Andy Pettite had a 4.16 FIP for the Yankees but went 14-8. ... Despite that .275 OBP, Dusty Baker started Willy Taveras in the leadoff spot 85 times. Taveras' other 14 starts came in the No. 2 spot. The good news is that most of the other starts at leadoff went to Chris Dickerson (.370 OBP) and Drew Stubbs (.364 career mark in the minors).
Blog Jog: Red Reporter's Slyde takes a look at the "butterfly effect" of baseball defense. ... Red Reporter also does a fascinating interview with Jaime Cevallos, the swing coach who worked with Tampa Bay's Ben Zobrist last season and also is working with Cincinnati utility man Drew Sutton. ... The great Hal McCoy of the Dayton Daily News addresses an important question: Which Reds player would you want on your side in a fight? ... Cincinnati Enquirer beat writer John Fay presents three questions about Aroldis Chapman to GM Walt Jocketty.

A Bajoran lightship was a type of early Bajoran spacegoing vessel that utilized solar sail-powered space flight.
Lightships were used by the Bajorans as early as the 16th century, at a time prior to the Fall of their First Republic. (DS9: "Explorers")
Bajorans first traveled from Bajor to Cardassia, and established ancient contact between the two worlds. For many years the Cardassians disputed this claim, referring to it as a "Bajoran fairy tale," because they refused to admit that the Bajorans had achieved interstellar flight before they had. However, Captain Benjamin Sisko and his son, Jake, inadvertently proved that the voyage was possible when they arrived in Cardassian space in a similar lightship. By a proclaimed remarkable coincidence, which Captain Sisko strongly doubted, the Cardassians announced that they found the remains of an ancient Bajoran lightship on Cardassia, thereby proving such an interstellar voyage was made. (DS9: "Explorers")
These vessels continued to be used by the Bajorans as late as the 22nd century. (DS9: "Accession")
Although lightships weren't capable of achieving warp speeds by design, a semi-controlled warp jump was possible if particles that were moving faster than light, for example tachyons, were to collide with the sails. However because the ship wasn't designed to endure the stress of warp speeds, it could be severely damaged as a result. It was thanks to such an uncontrolled warp jump that the ancient Bajorans were able to bypass the Denorios belt and reach the Cardassian system before they crashed on Cardassia Prime. (DS9: "Explorers")
Ships of the class
- Akorem's lightship
- Sisko's lightship (replica)
Background information
Illustrator Jim Martin described the idea behind the lightship's design as a "Bajoran turtle with gossamer wings." (Sailing Through the Stars: A Special Look at "Explorers", DS9 Season 3 DVD, Special Features)
Production designer Herman Zimmerman, illustrator Jim Martin and set designer Scott Herbertson envisioned the Siskos as "sailors in space" and intentionally made the set of the lightship similar to a sailing boat. Writer René Echevarria even told Zimmerman and Martin that he wanted the ship to have a "Jules Verne look, a wooden cabin outfitted with brass." Indeed, some real sailing equipment can be seen in the background at various points. Both Martin and Zimmerman count the lightship among their favorites to work on from a design point of view, and Zimmerman mentions it in the Star Trek V: The Final Frontier Special Edition DVD special feature "Herman Zimmerman: A Tribute". They also both discuss how much they enjoyed the project in "Sailing Through the Stars: A Special Look at "Explorers"", a featurette on the DS9 Season 3 DVD.
The design of the lightship itself was inspired by the Kon-Tiki, a deliberately primitive sailing craft that Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl used to sail from Peru to Tahiti in 1947, substantiating his belief that it was possible that a Pre-Columbian South American civilization could have settled Polynesia by making a trans-oceanic voyage.
As Jim Martin explains, in reality, a solar sail would need to be several miles wide to propel a ship like this. As such, "We needed to take it into the realm of fantasy. But that was a very whimsical idea, and we could be very whimsical with it, and do something that was kind of in a fun fantasy vein." (Sailing Through the Stars: A Special Look at "Explorers", DS9 Season 3 DVD special features)
John Knoll at Industrial Light & Magic rendered the lightship as a CGI model. (Star Trek Encyclopedia 2nd ed., p. 30) He later used the model for Akorem Laan's ship in "Accession".
At its 1995 convention, the Space Frontier Foundation recognized this episode for exemplifying "the most imaginative use of a vehicle to travel in space," and awarded the episode the "Best Vision of the Future" award. The award was presented by Robert Staehle, the world's foremost expert on solar sails.
Most shots of the lightship are from the aft (rear) because, being powered by solar "currents", the ship always has its back to the Bajoran sun.
A model of the lightship was released by Galoob as part of their Star Trek Micro Machines collection. A model of the Bajoran lightship is provisionally intended to be on sale as part of the eighteenth issue of the Star Trek: The Official Starships Collection.
The Tenth Anniversary Collection of the Star Trek Customizable Card Game includes a card for the Bajoran lightship Baraka, said to be of the Shabren-class.
In the Pocket DS9 novel Dark Passions, Book One, the mirror universe version of Annika Hansen creates a holographic representation of a lightship for Intendant Kira Nerys.
The Star Trek: Mirror Universe novel The Worst of Both Worlds, the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance routinely refers to the Bajoran lightships as evidence of the historic bond between the peoples of Bajor and Cardassia.

Programs are electronic beings created by users that inhabit the digital worlds of TRON and TRON: Legacy. They have a unique trait of looking exactly like their user counterpart in the real world; however, despite their human appearance they are completely different beings than users. They live on pure energy and have circuitry all over their armor or robes, which glows in different colors which varies from program to program.
Circuitry Colors
A program's circuitry colors vary depending on a its beliefs or functions or, in very rare cases, emotions. The color of a program can also dictate the circuitry color of a vehicle piloted by that program, although certain vehicles in TRON have other factors determining their color.
Programs are roughly classed by several major colors:
TRON Era, 1982
- Blue
- Red
- Yellow
- Green
- Military Programs (such as tank drivers)
TRON: Legacy Era, 2010
- Red
- Does not believe in users, considers them blasphemy
- Repurposed programs loyal to Clu
Literature, Games, Deleted Scene
Some additional colors, and additional uses of existing colors, have appeared in media outside of the movie canon. Many of these additions can be considered non-canon.
- Blue
- Green
- Viruses
- Gibson/Bostrumites
- Purple
- fCon programs
- In the Deleted Love Scene from TRON, Yori has purple circuitry, possibly denoting that circuitry colors can change due to emotions
- Briefly on Kevin Flynn when transitioning from red to blue in the Solar Sailer scene in TRON, though this is likely an aesthetic change rather than a factional one.
The anatomy of programs is very different. Skin color tones in TRON can be completely monochromatic (including eyes and teeth) with the exception of circuitry. Their hair is usually concealed by their helmets; however, in recent years more programs appear without helmets. 80s era programs almost always wore helmets.
Programs also wear armor such as forearm and shin guards (apart from helmets) quite frequently. A scene depicted in TRON: Legacy shows that Sirens have the ability to suit programs and users up for games, so it is suggested that armor can be removed.
Sexuality in programs has also been confirmed; however, it is unknown if they can reproduce with each other or with digitized users.[citation needed] It is also not known what infant/child programs look like.
They also have the ability to manipulate their environment when inside the grid, as suggested in TRON's deleted love scene, and in TRON: Legacy, where in both of them shows Yori and Castor confessing to have programmed their personal quarters.
In TRON: Legacy, a program's apparel has been radically modified, with the helmet modified from a small selection of standard designs into a wide range of different styles that can appear or disappear as needed. The armor has been changed to black with illuminated joints to help distinguish one program from another, though several white-clothed programs have been seen.

Once again, the time has finally come. After being denied twice, Ash finally gets his Gym Battle with Clay since he gave him a bag of Revival Herbs he requested. As a surprise, the Gym battlefield is located underground. Will Ash be able to beat the Gym Leader who calls himself the "King of the Mines"? And what is up with Roggenrola since he begins to glow while battling his Excadrill?
- The Japanese version of "Who's that Pokémon?" returns.
- The animation for when a Pokémon evolves is slightly modified in this episode. The glowing is now a darker blue and the lines surrounding the Pokémon are blue instead of a yellow-white color.
- Professor Oak's Live Caster: Golett
- Who's That Pokemon?: Excadrill (Japan), Krokorok (U.S.)
- This is the third episode in the entire Best Wishes Saga that Pikachu sat out a Gym Battle, and for good reason: since Clay used Ground-Types, so Pikachu's Electric type attacks won't do any damage.
- This is the second time Ash battled a Krokorok since BW020: Dancing With the Ducklett Trio! when the Sunglasses Krokorok now after evolved during a battle against his #1 rival Ash's Pikachu. Until 47 episodes later in the end, when he felt sad after losing to Pikachu without getting blasted off as Ash tells Krokorok to come along with the group as his new Pokemon indeed.
- This is the second time Ash's Oshawott battled a Palpitoad in BW035: Facing Fear With Eyes Wide Open! as Ash catches him with his Poke ball when he's defeated, but this time he lost.
- This is the second time a Palpitoad gets hit by Attract. The first is BW052: Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym! when Ash's Palpitoad get hit by Elesa's Emolga's Attract, and Clay's Palpitoad gets hit by Ash's Snivy's Attract.
- Clay's Palpitoad is confirmed to be male as well as Ash's.
- This is the second time Ash battled an Excadrill since BW044: The Club Battle Finale: A Heroes Outcome! during the battle tournament in Nimbasa Town with his Pikachu against Iris' Excadrill because he's a Ground/Steel type so electric type moves won't work and lost as his Snivy wound up losing to Clay's Excadrill, but when Ash sends out his Roggenrola with his toughness ability called Sturdy which now evolved into Boldore, he wins the final match which now earns him the Quake Badge.
- Ed Paul is the voice of the referee.

March 1, 2014 COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- Brenton Williams scored 24 points for South Carolina, and Kentucky coach John Calipari was ejected midway through the second half as the Gamecocks held off the 17th-ranked Wildcats 72-67 on Saturday night.
South Carolina (11-18, 4-12 Southeastern Conference) led by three at halftime and hit six of its first eight shots in the second half to go up 48-32 with 14:13 left. Kentucky made a furious charge after Calipari was tossed, but came up short.
The Wildcats (21-8, 11-5) couldn't make a basket, going 15:38 with only one field goal -- on a goaltending call. Calipari was ejected with his team down 12 after getting a second technical with 10:21 left. He walked out of the arena with his suit coat buttoned but his shirttail out.
Calipari's team responded with a 28-17 run and, after a three-point play by Julius Randle, Kentucky trailed 68-67 with 22 seconds left. But freshman Sindarius Thornwell hit two free throws for South Carolina, and Alex Poythress' attempt at a tying 3-pointer fell short.

The jury in the trial of a Maine man accused of helping a Zumba instructor engage in prostitution is watching sexually explicit videos as part of the high-profile trial.
ALFRED, Maine (AP) _ Jurors began viewing the videos at about 9:00 AM Thursday, a day after they saw more than two dozen explicit photos and a video that showed the fitness instructor performing a striptease inside her studio. But the court schedule depends on the severity of a winter storm Wednesday night.
Mark Strong Sr. faces 13 counts related to promotion of prostitution. Prosecutors said he made screen-grab snapshots from live Skype sessions he had with Alexis Wright while she engaged in sex for money.
Both have pleaded not guilty. Wright will be tried later.

- Abstract
- Shackel's paper [Shackel, B., 1991. Usability – context, framework, definition, design and evaluation. In: Shcakel, B., Richardson, S. (Eds.), Human Factors for Informatics Usability. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, UK] is reviewed in an attempt to assess his contribution to the development of usability as a science and as a profession. Usability related research is first situated in the period around 1990. The contributions to usability as a science then are addressed via Professor Shackel's definition and evaluation of usability. Finally, his contribution toward usability as a profession is acknowledged via his view of usability in the light of wider business goals.

Report after report of vandalism- mailboxes knocked over, car windows smashed.
If it happens to you the sheriff's office says they want to know.
There were several incidents of vandalism overnight in the Security area.
One man says he woke up to find the mirror on his truck shattered. Before he could call police, a deputy was already in the neighborhood investigating other reports of vandalism.
Neighbors we talked to say while it's not a huge cost, it's just something else they need to spend money one before the holidays.
There are no descriptions available of the vandals, but if you have any information call Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

(WBIR) A wayward bear shocked tourists in downtown Gatlinburg, Tennessee over the weekend.
Cell phone video, captured by Tricia Alexander, shows the black bear making its way from the National Park, attempting to get into the Gatlinburg Convention Center, and then running down the Parkway and even using the cross walk to get back home.
On a family outing to Gatlinburg, the Powell residents noticed a large group of people taking photos. When they figured out what was going on, they joined in too. But stayed in the comfort of their car.
"You could just see people standing there saying "Oh my God! A bear!" Alexander said. "A lot of people didn't see him coming and he just ran right by them and they're like wow! It was unreal!'

Mascot costumes, those awkward traditions of sporting events, schools, and intramural competitions, are often built in a traditional, tasteful manner. Rams, lions, dragons, bears – oh my! – these are the kind of creatures that run headlong onto the field, cheering and pumping fists into the air, trying to send the crowd into an ecstatic orgy of support for their respective teams. The sheer awkwardness of most mascot costumes makes it a difficult job, but for some reason it is a necessary one. However, rather than follow the conservative route for their mascots costume, the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) opted instead to design a uniquely artistic mascot: Scrotie, the superhero penis-man.
Architect lines the streets, fixies cruise along the sidewalks, and everyone seems to have walked right out of a fashion show. This is the life around the RISD campus. RISD is one of the most artistically-driven colleges in the country, and every one of its majors focus on the liberal arts. From pottery to painting, illustration to industrial design, everything drives students closer to their creative nirvana. Yet, even amongst the demanding pressures of creativity, the men within the school have found time to form two highly competitive hockey and basketball teams, respectively named The Nads and The Balls. Scrotie is the mascot for both teams.
Created in 2001, Scrotie is officially the schools unofficial mascot. He appears at games, leads the crowd in cheers (Go Nads for the Nads, When the heat is one, the balls stick together for the Balls), and generally causes a large amount of social disturbances. Some onlookers laugh, some are shocked, and some find it absolutely offensive, but the school has shown no urge to drive the mascot away. On the contrary, Scrotie has been invited to numerous Freshman orientations, along with undergoing a recent visual overhaul.
With nearly 70% of the schools population belonging to the female gender, its confusing as to why the school is so tolerant of a giant penis costume as its mascot. But numerous women have had their hand in creating the new visual representation of Scrotie, most likely using their firsthand experience with the male counterpart. The new Scrotie comes equipped with blue balls, engorged veins, hair, and a skin color that leaves it indistinguishable from one race to another, making Scrotie much more ethnic friendly. Quite honestly, Freud would have had a field day with this scenario: women cheering on the arrival of a masked penis-man superhero, who jumps and pumps his hands into the air, with a throbbing smile on his face.
Some of the student body has voiced that the new Scrotie has gone too far, especially with the shading and coloring. These students say that the original Scrotie was humorous because his costume was floppy, flimsy, and unprofessional. It made Scrotie seem cute. The new one focuses too much on representing the subtle details of the true male genitalia, and Scrotie has lost the humor of his once humble beginnings. Whether Scrotie sticks around or goes through another visual transformation, only time and the largely female student body of RISD can say for sure.

Keller is a minor character in TRON: Uprising.
Keller, a scientist, developed a mind-control technique for General Tesler, incorporating the effects of a haze of pathogenic code together with signals from a tall tower. When Tesler used the technique to brainwash programs to worship Clu, Keller told him she'd created the code to give programs freedom and wanted out, but he informed her that she would either complete the technique or be derezzed, and assigned Pavel to ensure her compliance. Pavel scoffed at her science, which he did not understand, but suggested that they celebrate together as programs in Argon Square fell under the influence of the gas. Keller disdainfully retorted that she'd have to be under the influence of the pathogen, and Pavel said that that could be arranged.
When Beck, in his guise as the renegade, broke into the airship from which the viral haze was spreading, Keller used Pavel's light staff to attack Pavel and knock him out, saying that she'd really needed to do that. She escaped as the airship crashed into the signal tower, ending the effects of her virus on the population. On the run after Tesler put a price on her head, she stopped in a light rail station and used an injection to change her surface render to that of a male program, creating a disguise with which to escape detection.While attempting to leave Argon by train, Keller was approached by Beck to be recruited into the growing resistance movement. As the train was being searched by Paige, Pavel intervened and shot the engines while trying to keep Keller from escaping. This led to the train being unable to stop while it headed to a broken bridge and its destruction, while Keller continued to evade Paige. While hiding, Paige offered her a chance to rejoin Tesler's side, an offer which she later accepted. When she saw Paige talking to Beck, she intervened and told the former that Beck was a hero who saved them all.
She was subsequently brought before Tesler and, on her knees, told him she would serve him and would not fail him. Tesler, agreeing, promptly derezzed her.
- Keller may be named after Sister Mary Kenneth Keller, the first American woman to earn a PhD in Computer Science, one of the developers of BASIC, and founder of the computer science department at Clarke College in Iowa, which she directed for twenty years.

BAKER COUNTY, Fla. - Hundreds gathered at First Baptist Church in Glen St. Mary Saturday to pay their respects to Jordan Sommise, the 14-year-old teenager who died in a car accident a week earlier.
Jordan was killed when she was thrown from a pickup truck she was riding in with two other teens.
Channel 4's Kumasi Aaron spoke with people at the funeral, and found the service wasn't the only way those who loved her chose to say goodbye.
"Seeing those balloons go up and seeing what people wrote on them it was like us sending a message to her and them going to be up in heaven with her," said Ashton Godbee, Jordan's best friend.
Those who loved the teen chose to say goodbye by releasing balloons into to the sky. The balloons were blue and pink, Jordan's favorite colors.
The crowd watched the balloons float way in front of the church. Those inside say it was full of tears, laughter and good memories of the teen taken too soon.
"They talked about her and how she was so bubbly and happy and she was exactly that. And I can see her right now in heaven just go around saying hi and meeting new people," said Godbee.
The service lasted here for about an hour and a half. There were so many people, the entire first level of the church and part of the balcony were filled.
"I'm so blessed to have a daughter that… touched so many people's lives. It's just, I can't hardly imagine," said Sommise.
People said Jordan's life touched old and new friends alike.
"We met about three weeks ago, and ever since them she's changed my life basically. I never met a girl like her before," said Dalton Henderson.
"Everyone remembers her as she was and just remembers the smile on her face that was always there," said Joshua Mosley.

- Tales from futures past: the lessons of Lemmy Caution

- Abstract
- The intergalactic traveller of Jean Luc Godard's 1965 sci-fi noir thriller Alphaville may seem an unlikely figure in the history of video art. While the title of this exhibition has its origins in nineteenth century speculative science, Lemmy Caution is its atavistic guide. A traveller in time and space, he represents that which is at a distance, from afar, a stranger in a strange land. Between smokes and dishing out rough justice he can tell you all you need to know about advanced technology, computers, urban screens and artificial vision---themes that are central to Seeing to a Distance. Single Channel Video Work from Australia. Like Caution, Australia for many years was defined as the antipodes, a remote other perpetually out of sight. Long before the Internet and the idea of a networked, global culture, Australia's relations to the rest of the world had been technologically mediated. It was the outer limits, always experienced at a distance.
