Apparently, 500 Developers Are Associated With Call Of Duty
Madness, sheer madness. Activision's Call of Duty series is of course the biggest video game franchise of all time. And as you can imagine, it takes a lot of elves to make all those toys. Like 500 of them. 500 people across 5 different developers. So basically, Activision is employing like half the people in America who still have jobs.
This information was revealed in a Venturebeat interview with Activision's Dave Stohl, the guy tasked with deciding which elves are hired to build which Call of Duty products. The whole thing's worth a read, but if you can't get enough Call of Duty, we invite you to check out our on-the-scene coverage of last weekend's Call of Duty XP.

As a young child playing the Super Nintendo Entertainment System one game stands out to me above all others. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time was a game that affected me in an everlasting way, the cooperative element of the game is what drew me into multiplayer gaming both competitively and casually/socially. Longing for the game that started my addiction, I was ecstatic to find the arcade title Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled in the Xbox Live Marketplace. As soon as I discovered it I spent the 800 Microsoft Points and set out on an excursion down memory lane.
This new title from Ubisoft Singapore feels exactly like the classic . The game begins with you selecting which mode you want to play, either singleplayer of multiplayer. Upon choosing, you get to pick which of the four brothers you want to play as, Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, or Raphael. Each of the characters have varying stats that change game play minutely, most importantly the different characters have varying speeds and ranges that correspond with their different weapons.
The gameplay translates very well with the originals non-linear side scrolling action, giving you the ability to not just move your character right and left, but also up and down across the locked screen. As the player you control your character with the left joystick, and then have three different buttons to make your character jump, kick and use their weapon. Throughout the levels you have minimal pick ups, one pickup giving you a full health bar, and one giving you an extra life. Each level is fairly short, with a nice slow gradient in difficulty between them. You encounter many different enemies, some of them can fly, some of them can shoot, and some of them are just straight up tougher then the others, taking more hits to down. With many arcade titles you can get by with little more then severe button mashing, however in this game, even on the default difficulty, you need to put some thought into what attack you are using and when. Most importantly you have to time your defensive jumps well when you are being overwhelmed by more enemies then you can shake your wooden stick at. Being that I spend most of my time playing first person shooters, this game may have been a little more difficult for me than a hardcore arcade gamer. That being said, I did die a surprising amount of times. The nice part about short levels is that if you loose all of your default 6 lives you can choose to "replay" the level, you then start the level over with 6 brand spankin' new lives (and this did happen to me). The multiplayer is exactly what i had hoped it to be, a blast. You have the option of playing local co-op as well co-op over xbox live. The gameplay really does not vary much, however there is just something about jumping around as a radioactively mutated turtle with your friends (or strangers) that makes it extremely entertaining.
Graphically, this game is obviously leaps and bounds superior then its predecessor. When playing the game in HD it is absolutely stunning. The lighting and colors are something that are worth being mentioned. Although, the music is nothing special, it does give you a fun feel that makes you miss your old local arcade.
All in all this game is worth the 800 Microsoft Points that it costs. The replay value may not be as strong as a full fledged Xbox title, however the nostalgic feeling that it gives you makes you want to dig into the closet and blow the dust of that SNES (and then coincidentally spend an hour blowing the dust out of the cartridge).

Social & Environmental Commitment
Being a Responsible Traveller
Travellers' Checklist
Here are some tips and considerations on how to be a responsible traveller – a new way of enjoying your travel experiences – by sharing with locals the immense benefits of tourism and promoting a greater understanding of fair business practices. Responsible Tourism is about putting back into travel.
- Ask to see your tour operator's RESPONSIBLE TRAVEL POLICY.
- Ask to see the ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY of the accommodation establishment that you have selected? Don't be fooled by vague and unsubstantiated claims.
- Help the local economy by BUYING LOCAL PRODUCE in preference to imported goods.
- Ask your tour operator to establish the extent to which local communities enjoy benefits from your ECONOMIC SPEND during your stay at a location.
- IF BARGAINING to buy an item, bear in mind that a small amount to you could be extremely important to the seller. Be realistic and fair.
- Realise that often the people in the country you are visiting have DIFFERENT TIME CONCEPTS, VALUES and thought patterns from your own, this does not make them inferior, only different.
- CULTIVATE THE HABIT OF ASKING QUESTIONS and discover the pleasure that you can enjoy by seeing a different way of life through others eyes.
- USE PUBLIC TRANSPORT, hire a bike or walk where convenient. You will meet local people and get to know the place far better. Always be safe and considerate.
- USE WATER SPARINGLY. It is precious in many countries and the local people may not have sufficient clean water. Challenge any wasteful practice at your hotel or lodge.
- SWITCH SOMETHING OFF. Whenever you leave your room, switch unnecessary lights and equipment off.
- DON'T DISCARD LITTER when visiting out-of-the-way places and attractions, take it with you and dispose of it at your hotel or lodge. Waste disposal is often a major problem at outlying attractions and sites and it leads to litter and unhealthy environments for locals.
- RESPECT LOCAL CULTURES,TRADITIONS AND HOLY PLACES . For example, ask permission before you photograph local people. In some countries it can cause offence.
- LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CULTURAL EXPERIENCES THAT YOU ARE EXPOSED TO. Avoid "sound-byte" tourism and encourage tour operators to provide more insight into the traditional experiences that they present to you.
- DO NOT BUY PRODUCTS MADE FROM ENDANGERED SPECIES, hard woods, shells from beach traders, or ancient artefacts (which have probably been stolen). When visiting gift and curio shops, be aware of the source of the products on sale and if in doubt, don't buy.
- READ UP on the countries you plan to visit. The welcome will be warmer if you take an interest and speak even a few words of the local language.
- When you get home drop your tour operator a note to let them know how you got on.
Travellers' Tips
Environment Rating
South Africa does not have an official environmental rating system for the tourism or hospitality industry at this time. The Heritage Programme is currently South Africa's leading tourism and business-based environmental certification programme. Others include Fair Trade in Tourism South Africa (FTTSA) while there are some that operate on a less formal basis. Visitors are urged to determine the environmental rating of their accommodation providers at time of booking.
Gratuities and Tipping
Tipping for good service is common practice in South Africa. The common standard is 10% of the bill or final charge. Certain restaurants practice inclusive gratuity policies and you are advised to check the details on restaurant bills before tipping. Tipping should only be considered based on your satisfaction of the service provided.

4,000 Jews, 1 Lie
Tracking an Internet hoax.
No other media outlet that can be searched through Nexis or Google has confirmed the Information Times claims about Sharon and the five Israelis.
Within days, the story appeared in newspapers around the world. A remarkably similar version appeared under the byline of Irina Malenko in Russia's Pravda on Sept. 21. Pravda removed the article from its Web site a few hours after posting, calling it a "great and foolish mistake," but it can still be accessed here. On Sept. 21, the Chicago Tribune reported that a Pakistani paper, which it did not name, had published a similar account. In his Sept. 23 Slate "Dispatch" from Islamabad, Peter Maass reported that a local pro-Taliban politician repeated the 4,000 Jews claim at an anti-U.S. rally. On Sept. 26, Pakistan's Business Recorder printed the story about 4,000 Jews in language almost identical to the original Al-Manar article as a letter to the editor under the name "Hakeem." The same day, the New York Times reported that the allegation had appeared in a newsletter published by an Islamic charity and in lesson plans prepared by Egyptian middle-school teachers. On Oct. 4, the Chicago Tribune spotted the allegation in a Saudi paper, which it did not name. In the Oct. 8 issue of Time, Tim McGirk reported from Pakistan that the story had swept through the country's mosques and Urdu newspapers.
On Sept. 28, USA Today repeated the claim in the context that "Muslims the world over" had tried to pin the attack on Israel. USA Today did not explain the origin of the charge. The Village Voice did the same on Oct. 2. The hoax-debunking site Snopes.com assailed the story, as well. With the Web as a weapon, a lie spreads quickly and easily. With the Web as a corrective tool, the same lie becomes much easier to bat away.

So you're going on vacation and, like all smart travelers, you refuse to check a bag. Good for you! But how on earth are you going to get all your beauty products through security? In order to meet TSA liquid regulations for carry-on luggage, you have a few unsatisfying possibilities. Option one: Leave everything at home and hit a drugstore when you land, hoping it carries the lines you love. Option two: Foresake your beauty regimen altogether and use whatever's sitting on the sink in your hotel bathroom. Option three: Try to get the contents of your fullsize products into portable 2-oz bottles without making a giant mess of your bathroom (and wasting product while you're at it).
We have a better idea: Try these 13 high-performance—and crazy-convenient—portable products that pack all the power of your standby beauty staples into tiny TSA-friendly packages. Happy trails!

My hunky little brother, all 6'3" of him, loves his "local kine" Hawaiian food. In Hawaiian diners, a plate lunch special is usually served with three starches: white rice, macaroni salad and either fried wheat noodles or white Wonder® bread and brown gravy (from a can). Following the dining experience one may succumb to a carb-induced coma.
Well, my little brother is out of the Marine Corps today (at 8 am PST!), after 5 honorable years of service, and will be in my clutches soon for dietary re-education! He remembers there being the Hawaiian plate lunch shop, L&Ls, in Denver and he's a big fan of their Teriyaki BBQ Plate. Well, before Denver, he is stopping by our place where he'll be welcomed with Lexie's version of the Teriyaki BBQ Plate. He will be so impressed with this healthier version of the plate lunch that he will convert to our gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, low-sugar way of eating! Ha! (Actually, he is very good about what he eats, never snacks, flosses even; and is available, girls!).
Nick, your big sister is so proud of you. Thank you for following in the footsteps of the men and women in our family. A heartfelt thanks to all who continue in their service. I love you brother!

Rock goes downtown in latest stadium deal in Franklin
City pursues TIF and will host public information meeting Thursday
Franklin — The Rock Sports Complex's latest proposal is more than just for a baseball stadium; it's for a complete downtown.
The Rock's first proposal for a professional minor league baseball stadium was rejected April 2, after the city's designated task force decided taxpayer money should not foot the project's $10.5 million investment.
Mike Zimmerman, owner of The Rock and Zimmerman Ventures, said the stadium could be used to franchise a new team from the independent baseball Frontier League.
Rather than focus on the baseball stadium proposal from Zimmerman, the task force expressed interest in his ultimate "Phase 3" for The Rock's development plan — an aspect Zimmerman spoke about in abstract terms until a task force meeting April 14.
Proposing a new downtown
After rejection of the first proposal, Zimmerman "worked tirelessly" with Mark Luberda, director of administration, and Paul Rotzenberg, director of finance and treasurer, to produce a Memorandum of Understanding, Zimmerman said.
The new proposal, submitted to the task force at the meeting, "is not just a stadium proposal," Zimmerman said, and it "does not use existing tax revenues to support development."
The "low-risk, high-value proposal" is the formation of a new downtown area along The Rock's property.
"We're proposing a downtown Franklin that will have mixed-use retail, restaurants and some sort of hospitality," Zimmerman said. It will be "a revitalized, fully integrated corridor that takes The Rock, the retail and the whole area of 76th Street and Rawson Avenue and brings new life to it."
The Common Council reviewed the proposal to help finance the project by establishing a tax-incremental finance district April 15.
A TIF district would use new property taxes from future commercial development to help finance The Rock's baseball stadium, thus providing the developer with economic incentives to abide by the city's permits and conditions and to continue seeking more commercial development.
Zimmerman would pay the $10.5 million for the stadium if the city agreed to create a TIF district for the project, under the new proposal.
The stadium will act as a catalyst for economic growth and will help the city reach its 70-30 tax base ratio goal, Zimmerman said.
"The stadium will drive traffic and demand in and around our proposed (downtown) and increase the vitality and long-term visibility of this area," Zimmerman said. "I think this is a lifetime opportunity for the city, and I would hate to see another city take this opportunity."
Zimmerman suggested that downtown development associated with a professional baseball stadium could be worth about $100 million to the community.
The task force agreed April 14 to recommend the Common Council consider the proposal for a Memorandum of Understanding that incorporates a TIF district and "addresses the risks associated with the proposal while creating a valid opportunity to initiate economic development."
Neighboring complaints
Many nearby residents have expressed concern about potential issues related to the proposed baseball stadium, including light pollution, excessive noise, water run-off and the presence of methane from when the sports complex was once a landfill.
The prospect of a new downtown area, then, may heighten those neighbors' concerns.
"I don't quite understand how you can take a downtown and put it anywhere in Franklin you so desire," said nearby Franklin resident Le Roy Lewandowski at the Common Council meeting. "A downtown usually consists of the city hall, the library and the post office. To call 76th Street and Rawson downtown is wrong."
Common Council unanimously agreed to host a public information meeting regarding the proposal on Thursday, April 17, in the courtroom of the Franklin Police Department, 9455 W. Loomis Road, at 6:30 p.m.
The council also agreed to hold a special meeting Tuesday, April 22, at 6:30 p.m. for further consideration of the proposal. Prior to the special meeting, the council will seek consultation regarding the potential for a TIF district.
"That special meeting will not (imply) a done deal," Luberda told the council Tuesday. "Staff will do some of this work and, if you end up not approving the Memorandum of Understanding, (then) that's just some productivity hours to go by the wayside.
"But if you do (approve the TIF district), then we've got a running start at it. … If the (TIF district) is not approved, then we can just walk away with zero risk."
The council must complete a TIF district and/or economic impact analysis by June 4, a deadline set by the memorandum.

With a new goalie mask, Blues' Miller is really ready to rock now
Blues goalie Ryan Miller has a new mask that gives a respectful nod to both rock 'n' roll and the team's history.
ST. LOUIS -- Rock 'n' roll, baby. That's what Ryan Miller has been doing since arriving in St. Louis, winning seven of eight starts in goal before hitting a speed bump last night in Chicago, so it's only fitting that his new goalie mask rocks, too.
With a Jimmy Page Gibson guitar on one side and a Jimi Hendrix Fender on the other, the new mask is a nod to rock 'n' roll, of which Miller is a big fan and in which he has dabbled over the years.
With musical notes connecting the guitars to a "Saint Louis Blues" graphic ripped straight from the sheet music for the W.C. Handy song of the same name, it is an homage to the tune that inspired his new team's moniker.
With a design that bears a remarkable resemblance to the mask worn by Curtis Joseph, it is a tribute to a great Blues goalie two decades ago.
And it's flat-out cool. Check out the story by Chris Pinkert of the Blues and several photos of Miller's new mask by clicking here.
The guitars on the mask by @BishopDesigns are Jimmy Page's Gibson and Jimi Hendrix's Fender. I think it turned out great. Thanks Ray!— Ryan Miller (@RyanMiller3039)

(By Mani) As the year 2012 winds down and a new year 2013 dawns, let's take a look at some of the most anticipated gadgets rumored to be launched this year.
If we call rumors, then let's begin with none other than Apple Inc.(NASDAQ: AAPL).
Cupertino, California-based Apple is expected to unveil the second edition of iPad Mini with retina display, which would boost the display quality by miles compared to the first-generation of iPad Mini. Japanese site Macotakara says that the new iPad Mini would feature A6X processor.
Moreover, it is speculated that a thinner, lighter fifth-generation iPad too will hit the stores in March. If that happens, it would be too quick as Apple released the iPad Mini and iPad 4 just released in November. However, if the recent trend is to believed, one may not rule out the possibility of a quicker upgrade as Apple launching iPad 4 just eight months after it launched iPad 3.
[Related -Google Inc (GOOG): Why Nest Labs Deal Is A Wakeup Call For Apple Inc.?]
"iPad Mini Gen-2: Apple's gen-2 iPad mini is getting pulled-in, and is likely to have several new suppliers, with TXN gaining content," RBC Capital Markets analyst Doug Freedman wrote in a note to clients.
Meanwhile, Apple is also speculated to be readying its next-generation iPhone featuring Sharp's ultra-thin IGZO display and extend it other products. According to a report on DigiTimes, its sources said Apple is in talks with Sharp over IGZO panel production capacity estimates for 2013 and is also inquiring about whether AU Optronics' L5C line could be used to produce the technology.
[Related -Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL): Why Gross Margins Will Expand In 2014 and Beyond?]
Now, here is the most interesting rumor. A report from the Chinese website iphone.tgbus.com claims that Apple is readying a connected device (tentatively called iWatch) that a user can wear around the wrist that connects with your iPhone and allows you to attend calls. Apple is said to be joining with none other than chip-maker Intel Corp. (NASDAQ: INTC) to produce this device, which is rumored to feature a 1.5-inch OLED screen.
In addition, Apple is expected to release the much-anticipated iTV in 2013.
Now, we will move to Samsung.
Samsung is giving a tough competition to Apple iPhone with its galaxy series of smartphones, with the latest Galaxy S3 giving sleepless nights for Tim Cook. The Korean technology giant is expected to release Galaxy S4 in the first-half with impressive specs, including a 2GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, and 13MP rear camera, and above all, a bendable 5.5-inch screen.
"Samsung display will be ready to ship unbreakable plastic substrate screen by 2q end, with bendable in 2h13. Galaxy 4 likely ships a month early if carriers want it at the end of March, semis to support will start mid-Feb. All products best in class, including AC, WiFi, NFC and applications processor," Freedman noted.
If Apple and Samsung are vying for one another's' heads, then the silent winner is Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), which had stunning success with its Kindle Fire devices. Now, it sees a good opportunity in smartphones.
If a report on the Taiwan Economic News to be believed, Amazon has approached Foxconn to make its first ever smartphone, which may run on the Android OS and carry a consumer-friendly $200 price tag. Meanwhile, a second-generation Kindle Fire HD tablet is also said to be in the pipeline.
Meanwhile, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) is rumored to unveil the XBOX 720 for the holiday 2013 season along with updates to hardware and Kinect Technology.
Finally, Research In Motion, Inc. (NASDAQ: RIMM) (TSE: RIM) would release its final weapon for its survival – BlackBerry 10 – in the first quarter. The new BlackBerry devices are rumored to have a BlackBerry Hub, intelligent keyboard with improved touch screen functionality.
RIM is betting heavily on this revamped operating system that got some rave reviews from technology experts. It remains to be seen how consumers will embrace it as RIM might find it difficult to make them shift to a new ecosystem from already established iOS and Android. Not to forget, Microsoft is also slowly making inroads in the smartphone space with its Windows 8 OS.
Nevertheless, 2013 would be a year with some interesting devices waiting to be unveiled much to the delight of the consumers. So, get ready to shop some cool gadgets in the New Year.

In a recent article about medical repatriation in a national bioethics journal, philosopher Mark Kuczewski argues that the practice can be an "ethically accepted option" only if three conditions are met:
- Transfer must be able to be seen by a reasonable person as being in the patient's best interests aside from the issue of reimbursement.
- The hospital must exercise due diligence regarding the medical support available at the patient's destination.
- The patient or appropriate surrogate must give fully informed consent to being returned to another country.
Surely Dr. Kuczewski knew – when he wrote the article – how completely absurd these three "conditions" or prerequisites are?

In order to turn over aging inventory and make way for more current stock, some products on our site are listed in a "Dutch Auction". In a Dutch Auction, the selling price of a product is repeatedly lowered every day until product is sold out. As a result of the decreasing purchase price the product deal becomes more enticing to other buyers.
Act quickly to purchase at this "special price" before inventory is depleted and the product is sold out.
As many women would agree, there is a limited amount of accessible clothing
for the naturally developing mother. By using our SwellyBelly Maternity Belly
Band, the quest for "maternity clothes" has come to an end. With the
SwellyBelly you can continue to wear your previous wardrobe, while adding fun
and bright colors. While providing belly support and comfort the SwellyBelly is
practical, fashionable and very affordable for the soon-to-be mom. The
SwellyBelly Maternity Belly Band was created by stay at home mothers for all
mothers out there.
Sizing of the SwellyBelly™ is simple to understand. It could not be easier,
your size with SwellyBelly is same as your pre-pregnancy size. We created for
you a chart that can assist you in deciding which size is best for you.
Pre-pregnancy Size: S - M - L - XL
SwellyBelly Size: S - M - L - XL
e.g., if your pre-pregnancy size was a "M" the SwellyBelly
Maternity Belly Band™ size is also "M"
if your MATERNITY SHIRTS are a "M" (even if you were small pre
pregnancy), get a "M" SwellyBelly Band.
Please Remember: Some of us gain a little more weight during pregnancy,
please take that into consideration when ordering.
The SwellyBelly Maternity Belly Band™ can also be worn after you give birth
and would like to cover yourself while breast feeding. Just wear it as you did
during your pregnancy, lift your shirt and breastfeed. You will feel comfortable
exposing your belly while breastfeeding.
Our maternity belly band is not a cheap band, our fabric is a sport bra like
material, and even though this is an expensive material, we have been able to
keep our prices down. We have curves and so does the SwellyBelly, it curves with
your body (it's not a square shape band). Our maternity belly band has the
perfect amount of tension without compression on the growing belly. It is made
out of silky breathable material so you will not overheat.

First, the glove. Can the West Coast offense be next for Peyton Manning?
Probably not. But if it ever came to that, Manning has the guy who can coach him up in Greg Knapp, whom the Broncos just hired as quarterbacks coach.
Knapp, whose extensive NFL coaching background is steeped in the West Coast offense, replaces Adam Gase, who was promoted Thursday from Broncos quarterbacks coach to offensive coordinator.
The hiring of Knapp was a mild surprise because Manning, Gase and Broncos head coach John Fox have not run much West Coast over the years.
In general, the West Coast uses a zone-blocking, one-cut running scheme and asks its quarterback to drop back in rhythm and deliver passes timed with the short-to-intermediate routes of receivers.
Blog: First-and-Orange
The Denver Post's NFL reporters post analysis, notes and more on this blog focusing on the Denver Broncos.
Most West Coast quarterbacks are rollout, athletic types.
That's not Manning, although his passes are about timing and are often thrown at a short to medium distance.
Knapp, 49, was the offensive coordinator of the Oakland Raiders in 2012, Seattle in 2009, Oakland again in 2007-08, Atlanta during the Michael Vick-Alex Gibbs heyday from 2004-06 and San Francisco from 2001-03.
Knapp was also Gary Kubiak's quarterbacks coach in Houston from 2010-11.
All of those teams were known for the West Coast offense. The West Coast was the last offense John Elway operated as the Broncos' quarterback from 1993-98, but the system had primarily left Denver with the firing of head coach Mike Shanahan in 2008. Elway returned to the Broncos as executive vice president of football operations in 2011.
Knapp's hiring, though, may have been more about the success he has had in developing quarterbacks than the West Coast offense. In Atlanta, he coached both Vick and a young Matt Schaub. In Houston, he coached a more experienced Schaub and rookie T.J. Yates. In San Francisco, Knapp worked with an aging Steve Young and up-and-coming Jeff Garcia.
The Broncos have Manning, who will play at 37 years old in his 16th NFL season in 2013, and Brock Osweiler, who recently turned 22 and is entering his second season after he was a second-round draft pick in 2012.
"Greg is a proven, experienced coach with a very impressive background working with quarterbacks," Fox said. "He's had success with Pro Bowlers and established players while also being instrumental in the development of younger quarterbacks."

Have any of you watched this piece of shit? A little while ago, I saw it in my mom's video collection, and I popped it in just to see what it said. It was incredibly sad to see so many brainwashed youths.
The real life drama at the end was the worst perception of "The World" that I've ever seen. It was very unrealistic. I was pissed off when the JW girl went out on date with the worldly dude, and they didn't even get it on in the back seat of his car.

A Happy Dilemma for Gay and Lesbian Jews
Timothy Kincaid
March 21st, 2008
Sometimes you come across a problem that seems more of reason for celebration than a reason for concern: My raise put me in a new tax bracket; My friends are throwing me a birthday party on the day of American Idol results; All the candidates for my congressional district are supportive of my rights, have great ideas about the economy and local jobs, and all have a creative solution for Iraq.
What's a guy to do?
The Jewish Daily Forward reports just such a dilemma for gay Jews. In the 70's, the major branches of Judaism were not supportive of their gay members so separate synagogues were established.
But since that time our Jewish brothers and sisters have achieved incredible support from the leaders of their faith. The Reconstructionist and the Reform branches both endorse marriage equality (under civil law) and the Conservative branch allows rabbis to determine whether they will perform same-sex ceremonies. Only Orthodox leaders are not supportive of gay equality.
But now gay synagogues face a serious question:
As the mainstream Jewish world has increasingly accepted gay and lesbian Jews, gay-and-lesbian-founded synagogues like Bet Haverim have grappled with questions that go to the core of their identity: How accepting should they be of straight members? Can they accept straight members and still remain distinct? Is there still a future for gay and lesbian synagogues, or will they slowly merge into the mainstream?
You see, it seems that straight Jewish families like the friendliness of gay synagogues and want to join. They aren't worried about what the neighbors may think nor are they squeamish that someone may look at them funny. In fact, some seem more at home than in a more conventional synagogue.
Oy vey!
Now I do recognize that this is a genuine issue of concern. It truly does continue to be of vital importance that gay Jewish kids growing up in non-supportive families have models to look to.
"There are people who reach out to us from all over the world — from phone booths in [the ultra-Orthodox Brooklyn enclave of] Boro Park, e-mails from Kansas and Pakistan," Cohen said. "The fact that there is a gay synagogue gives people hope in an incredible and lifesaving way."
But, nonetheless, too much support and inclusion is a problem I'd gladly welcome in the Christian faith.
So to our gay Jewish readers I say, "Congratulations on your terrible problem. And thank you for creating within the Jewish community in America some of our strongest allies."

Hi David,
Thank you for proving such kind input. I have so many things to print that I do not know what to print. However I will keep this in my print folder.
As for other images, I will post them. The rest from this session are in color. For this particular photograph I used the maximum focal length on my Canon 24-105L f/4 lens. Hopefully when money allows I can purchase a telephoto and do more shots like this but make it more personal.

Tallahassee, FL - Andy Summerlin threw a touchdown pass and ran for another score as Samford used a big first quarter to beat Florida A&M 27-20.
Samford (2-1) jumped to an early 17-0 first quarter lead behind touchdown runs by Fabian Truss and Summerlin. A blocked punt by Cody Brooks set up the latter score.
Florida A&M (1-2) managed just 219 yards of total offense but two interception returns for touchdowns kept the Rattlers in the game. Patrick Aiken had a 93-yard return for a score in the second quarter for Florida A&M's first points. Devonte Johnson then scored on a 28-yard interception return in the third to cut Samford's lead to 24-20.
But the Bulldogs tacked on a field goal and held on for the win, bouncing back from last week's 31-21 loss to Arkansas in which Samford lost a fourth-quarter lead.

I'm sure that if possible, Python 3 would not automatically add itself to the front Python 2 in your PATH there either, as it's not quite ready to become the default over Python 2. Or perhaps it's assumed that if you install from source rather than using a package manager on the platform that you know what you're doing. Anyway, make sure you add /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.2/bin to your PATH *after* /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin, or else suddenly Python 3 will become your default Python (which you almost certainly don't want at this point).

Fire scorches 10 acres in Folsom
By: Laura Newell Telegraph staff writer
A grass fire in the open space near the SMUD facility in Folsom overtook about 10 acres of open space Monday. "The cause is undetermined at this point; investigators are on scene trying to figure out what happened," said Folsom Fire Chief Ron Phillips. Folsom Fire Division Chief John Haberek said investigators have ruled out accidental causes such as electrical, motor vehicle and other natural causes. "There was a report that someone heard a bottle rocket, but that is still under investigation," Haberek said. "The area is occupied by teenagers oftentimes, so that is all under investigation." Haberek said the next phase for the investigation is to talk to witnesses and try to pinpoint what may have caused the fire. The open space is fairly large, said Phillips, covering about 30 or more acres in size. "All units from the Folsom Fire Department were called and units from Sacramento Metro Fire arrived to help," Phillips said. Units from the Folsom Police Department also responded to help keep spectators a safe distance from the fire. Originally, it was reported as a tree fire, but when Folsom Fire units arrived the fire spread to open grass space, Phillips said. Units first responded within minutes of the report and the fire was contained in about one hour. "Both SMUD and PG&E occupy the area as substations," Phillips said. "I don't believe they generate power here. Power substations are not threatened at this point." There were no injuries or property damaged from the fire. "We have enough resources here that no further spread is anticipated," Phillips said. Phillips said a similar fire occurred on the facility last year. The fire caused thick black smoke to fill the surrounding air and brought many onlookers to the scene. Katie Johnson, 16, has lived across the street from the SMUD facility for five years with her family. She came out to watch the fire with her mom Deanna. "We saw a big smoke cloud from the house, it just looked like a big shadow," Katie said. "The fire seems to be traveling fast." Deanna said she does not fear the fire attacking their nearby house. "There is ash flying in the air, but we all have clay roofs, so we are not afraid of the fire hitting us," Deanna said. Fred Hurkmans is a 13-year Folsom resident living near the facility. "My wife saw smoke and heard sirens, so I came out to see the fire," Hurkmans said. He said with the eucalyptus trees and nearby park surrounding the facility, he is not worried about the fire spreading to surrounding houses.

Find a Doctor
If you are looking for a family doctor in Canada who is taking new patients, start by asking friends and co-workers in your community. Others who may be able to suggest someone include your dentist or pharmacist. If at first you must use a hospital emergency room or walk-in clinic, be sure to ask the attending physician. Provincial medical associations also maintain lists of doctors and some will provide you with names of those in your area who are accepting new patients. Here are the contact numbers for each province and territories.
1. College of Physicians and Surgeons of B.C.
Tel: (604) 733-7758
Fax: (604) 733-3503
Website: www.cpsbc.ca
Using the Physician Search feature revealed the names and addresses of 43 doctors in the Vancouver area who were currently accepting new patients.
2. College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta
Tel: (780) 423-4764
Fax: (780) 420-0651

Obamacare: Better Than It Looks
The health care primary, Part 1.
How universal? Not entirely. Only children would be required to have health-care coverage. Obama doesn't specify how this would be achieved. I tend to be wary of health reform schemes that "require" people to purchase health insurance. What exactly are you going to do to me if I don't?
How socialistic?The best (and least-discussed) part of Obamacare is a public health-insurance program with comprehensive benefits (similar to those available to members of Congress) and strict limits on premiums, co-payments and deductibles. No one could be refused coverage because of pre-existing conditions, and subsidies would be offered to lower-income participants. (If they were very low-income, they'd receive Medicaid instead, unless they were over 65, in which case they'd receive Medicare.) The bad news about Obamacare's (shhh!) socialized-medicine component is that it would be offered only to the self-employed, to employees of small businesses, and to people whose employers didn't give them health insurance. But this last group is growing larger every day, and the mere existence of a public health-insurance program would likely cause businesses to drop out of their private health-insurance plans in droves. That would be fine by me, provided the public health-insurance plan were a decent one. Eventually, all the other parts of Obama's plan might well wither away, leaving only this one. Some people would be alarmed by that thought. I find it the most attractive (not to mention elegant) possible outcome. The least attractive outcome would be for the insurers participating in Obama's National Health Insurance Exchange to persuade the government to make its new public health-insurance program (a potential competitor) so chintzy that no one would want to participate in it.
How disciplined: The best way to impose discipline on the medical system would be to eliminate fee-for-service payments to doctors and replace them with straight-up salaries. No politician within a mile of the political mainstream is willing to suggest this. But in his new book, A Second Opinion, Arnold Relman, former editor of the New England Journal of Medicine, makes a powerful case that this must be done. Relman points out that the people responding to market forces in the current commercialized medical environment aren't patients, who usually lack the knowledge to make informed choices, but doctors, who maximize their income by maximizing the number of procedures they perform. Relman cites as an example a company (unnamed, alas) that sells or leases an expensive gizmo that doctors use to treat back pain. The doctor pays for the gizmo by paying a fee to the manufacturer each time he uses it on a patient; he later recoups the fee (and a sizable profit) through the patient's medical insurance. The company will even provide an assistant to perform the procedure, freeing up the doctor to see other patients. The gizmo is approved by the Food and Drug Administration, but it "has not yet been systematically compared with the many other techniques for the treatment of back pain." The main attraction, then, for a doctor to install the gizmo in his office is financial rather than clinical. According to Relman, this is made plain in the gizmo's marketing brochures, which "emphasize the financial benefits to physicians at least as much as the alleged (but still unproven) benefits to patients."
In her forthcoming book, Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer, journalist Shannon Brownlee argues that the maximization of medical procedures takes a toll not only on economic efficiency (Relman's ripped-off patient with back pain and his ripped-off insurer) but also on patients' health. Hospitalizations and medical procedures, after all, entail some measure of physical risk. The potential threat to health is an even more urgent reason to compensate doctors by salary rather than by payments for individual medical procedures.
Obama's plan wouldn't make doctors salarymen. It would, however, let Medicare negotiate drug prices, and it would accelerate the move toward electronic medical records. (See "Cost.") These are two worthwhile measures that would save some money and improve patient care.
Impact on employers: Implementing Obamacare would cost employers an unspecified amount of money. That's because the government would require those employers it judges too stingy in providing health care for workers to contribute a percentage of payroll to the new public health insurance plan (see "How socialistic?"). On the other hand, Obama would limit (to an unspecified amount) the liability of small businesses for catastrophic care expenses. Since the most serious illnesses account for about half of all health-care costs, then either this provision would cost the government a lot of money, or the "unspecified amount" would be set so high that it wouldn't do employers much good. If the public insurance part of Obama's plan caused businesses to give up providing health care to their employees, then Obamacare would be great for employers.
Longevity: By "longevity" I mean not how long a given patient lives, but rather how long the entity that pays for the patient's care will continue to do so. In Best Care Anywhere: Why VA Health Care Is Better Than Yours, journalist Phillip Longman demonstrates that one reason the VA is able to provide cheaper and better patient care than its private-sector counterparts is that it is invested not in a particular medical procedure but rather in the patient himself. Gains from preventive care improve the VA's own bottom line because they keep in good health patients who will remain in the VA system for the rest of their lives. (Full disclosure: I wrote the introduction to Longman's book, which expands on a Washington Monthly article by Longman that I praised in this space.)
The public-insurance part of Obama's plan promotes longevity because it is "portable," i.e., you can remain in the plan if you change jobs.

With all these threads asking when will the PS4/XB1 pass the WiiU, I keep seeing the argument from some that the PS4 and XB1 will have low sales coming out of the holidays. Similar to the WiiU sales.
They argue that there is not enough value in next gen to rocket them in sales. I have seen the statement made that the PS4 and XB1 will indeed be outpaced by their current gen counterparts for at least some time. They use the PS2 out selling the PS3 and 360 at the beggining of the generation as evidence that it will likely happen again.
So I ask you VGC community. Do you think it is true that the PS4 and XB1 will stumble in the beggining of 2014 and will be outsold by the PS3? If so how long will that last for?
Will save the WiiU: Pikmin 3, price cut, 3D Mario, WiiFit U, 3rd party support (CoD, AC, Batman, Watch Dogs), Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros U. another price cut.
Will Save the Xbox One: Titanfall,Remove Kinnect, price cut, next Halo, next Gears, another price cut.

A widely held belief is that dogs evolved from gray wolves, but a new study finds that the common ancestor of dogs and wolves went extinct thousands of years ago.
What's more, the extensive DNA analysis -- published in the latest PLoS Genetics -- found that dogs are more closely related to each other than to wolves, regardless of their geographic origin. The genetic overlap seen today between dogs and wolves is likely then due to interbreeding after dog domestication.
"The common ancestor of dogs and wolves was a large, wolf-like animal that lived between 9,000 and 34,000 years ago," Robert Wayne, co-senior author of the study, told Discovery News. "Based on DNA evidence, it lived in Europe."
For the study, Wayne, a professor in UCLA's Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, and his colleagues generated genome sequences from three gray wolves: one each from China, Croatia and Israel, representing three regions where dogs are believed to have originated.
The researchers also produced genomes for two dog breeds: a basenji, a breed that originates in central Africa, and a dingo from Australia. Both locations have been historically isolated from modern wolf populations. The scientists, co-led by John Novembre, additionally sequenced the genome of a golden jackal to serve as an example representing earlier divergence.
Instead of all three dogs being closely related to one of the wolf lineages, or each dog being related to its closest geographic counterpart, the DNA points to the dogs having descended from an unknown wolf-like ancestor.
Wayne explained that many animals went extinct during the late Pleistocene (20,000 to about 12,000 years ago), which experienced a global ice age. Coincidentally -- or maybe not -- modern humans also became more prevalent in Europe at this time. It could be that humans led to the extinction of some animals at that time, but the jury is still out on the issue.

Emergency Message For U.S. Citizens
Protests Throughout Turkey
June 3, 2013
The U.S. Embassy informs U.S. citizens that public demonstrations are taking place throughout Turkey at varying times and with little notice. Violent altercations have occurred in Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, Adana, Mersin, and elsewhere. The continuing protests in Istanbul are centered on the Taksim and Besiktas areas, but others may occur elsewhere in the city as well. The Turkish National Police are clashing with protestors in some locations, and there have been numerous reports of injuries. Individuals caught in the vicinity of violence have been injured and detained. Visa services for non-U.S. citizens may be disrupted with little to no notice in the coming days. At least one labor union of public workers (KESK) has announced a planned strike for 1 ½ work days beginning at 12:00 noon on June 4. Please check our Embassy and Consulate websites for further details.
U.S. citizens traveling or residing in Turkey should be alert to the potential for violence. We strongly urge U.S. citizens to avoid demonstrations and large gatherings. Even demonstrations intended to be peaceful can turn confrontational and escalate into violence.
Review your personal security plans, remain aware of your surroundings, including local events, and monitor local news stations for updates. Maintain a high level of vigilance, take appropriate steps to enhance your personal security, and follow instructions of local authorities.
We strongly recommend that U.S. citizens and nationals traveling to or residing in Turkey enroll in the State Department's Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP). U.S. citizens and nationals without Internet access may enroll directly with the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. Enrolling signs you up to receive updated information about areas abroad and makes it easier for the U.S. embassy or consulate to communicate with you or your designated contact in case of emergency.
Current information on safety and security can also be obtained by calling 1-888-407-4747 toll-free in the United States and Canada or a regular toll line at +1-202-501-4444 for callers from other countries.

Road Classifications
Classification Philosophy
The Map Legend has a fairly broad definition of how to classify different types of roads based on what they look like, what kind of road it is, what kind of connections it uses, etc., and is a good general guide. My philosophy is to take a more practical approach to be utilized in day-to-day mapping. That philosophy says that in general, freeways are limited-access highways that connect different areas of states or cities, major highways connect to freeways, minor highways connect to major freeways, primary roads connect to major or minor highways or freeways, and streets connect to primary roads or major or minor highways, or freeways. Thus, there will almost always be (or should be) at least one major highway going thru any highly populated area, and there likely are several, possibly also one or more freeways.
The Map Legend also indicates that minor highways aren't supposed to be split, and a strict reading would imply that they are mostly inter-city, but both of those restrictions seem a bit tightly constrained to me. The benefit of minor highways is that they tend to appear on the Live Map and on the clients at a higher zoom level than Primary Streets, so they are useful to show the interconnection between major highways and/or freeways.
Here are some general guidelines that can be used to help determine how to classify. Think of each of these as leading towards an answer, not providing a specific answer. None of these are rules, and there will always be exceptions.
- If a road only uses interchanges (on- and offramps) for entrances and exits, it is a freeway.
- If the road is divided, it is more likely to be a freeway, a major or minor highway, or a primary road. If the division is more than 2 meters, it is more likely to be a major highway.
- If the road is an inter-city road, it is more likely to be a minor or major highway, or a freeway
- If the road has a "State Road" designation then it is more likely to be a minor or major highway
- If the road has a "County Road" designation then it is more likely to be a primary street or a minor highway
- If the road mostly provides access to residential streets, it is more likely to be a primary street although it could be just a street
- If the road is residential, it is almost certainly just a street
Naming Conventions
Please follow the guidelines on this wiki for naming roads in Waze. The most important rule is to name roads using their mailing address name (e.g., "Orange Blossom Trl" rather than "US 17 / 92 / 441") and add any other route number or designation as an alias. As there is no uniform naming convention for state highways in Waze, it is best to use the FDOT naming convention of using the "SR" prefix (e.g., "SR 528 W").
Specific Roads
- SR 408 (East-West Expressway)
- SR 414 (Maitland Blvd Extension Tollway) - west of Orange Blossom Trail only
- SR 417 (Eastern Beltway)
- SR 429 (Western Expressway)
- SR 528 (Beachline Expressway)
- Florida Turnpike
Major Highways
- US 441 (Orange Blossom Trail)
- Exception: Apopka where it is Main Street - Minor Highway
- SR 436 (Semoran Blvd)
- SR 414 (Maitland Blvd)
- Exception: Maitland Extension Tollway - Freeway
- SR 434 (Forest City Rd, SR 434)
- Exception: in Orlando / Oviedo, Alafaya Trail - Primary Street
- US Hwy 17/92
- SR 423 (Lee Rd, John Young Pkwy)
- SR 50 (Colonial Dr)
- SR 435 (Kirkman Rd)
- SR 482 (Sand Lake Rd, McCoy Rd)
- US 192 (Space Coast Parkway, Irlo Bronson Highway)
