Sony, finally, officially unveiled some information for MLB 14: The Show on Thursday. The current generation versions (PS3, Vita) will release on April 1, and the next generation PS4 version is due sometime in May. Across all platforms, the game will offer 50 new features to keep the game fresh. Sony released a screen showcasing the graphical difference between the PS3 and PS4, and this can be seen on this page along with some other screens.
Quick batter and pitching counts and a new user interface (built from the ground up for PS4, but optimized for the current generation) are two of the more important features to help deepen the experience of The Show. A more noteworthy addition will be year-to-year saves, starting from this version. This will allow extensions of your seasons from here on out, if players choose not to play with new rosters. On top of this, cross-platform saves return so players can get a jump on their season in April, and move over to next-gen in May.
An improved Road to the Show and community challenges will add more depth to the series. Online Franchise introduces multi-season play with Scouting, the Amateur Draft, Free Agency, and CPU Trades. Lastly, a smarter Universal Profile will now track player tendencies. The profile can be trained, and then subbed in to the Diamond Dynasty games.
Sony expects top-notch visuals on the PS4 version due in May. They state that these improvements above are far from what is available in the final version. Check out the trailer on this page, and check back periodically for updates on MLB 14: The Show.

An examination of the nature and application among the nanotechnologies industries of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the context of safeguarding the environment and human health
Researcher Name: Lori Frater, Chris Groves, Bob Lee, Elen Stokes (BRASS)
The aim of the research was to assess the role of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) as a voluntary and self-regulatory approach by industry itself to tackle these potential risks. The project assessed the potential impact of CSR as a tool for the nanotechnologies industry to implement adaptive governance and to address any associated potential environmental and human health hazards.
Aims of Project
The main objective of the project was to evaluate what motivates or inhibits industry to adopt responsible practices by applying a societal approach to risk assessment and risk management based on CSR principles. This research will assess the extent and effectiveness of current CSR practices within the industry and whether, as a tool, it might be able to assist in controlling the divergence between innovation and risk, whilst work on standard setting and formulating appropriate regulation continues.

It's that time of year again. The time of year when hope replaces reality, and logic gives way to reports by "multiple sources." After more than a year of waiting, it's finally time for the NFL Draft.
And, for the first time in a very long time, it's the Tennessee Titans that have NFL teams, fans and media members wondering what they will do next.
When's the last time anyone has said that? Well, the last time anyone honestly said that?
I have been an outspoken critic of our school superintendent for a while now, but as I face graduation in the next few weeks, I have come to the realization that, while Mr. Gary Aytes has had his gaffes (both in public venues and in private meetings), he really means well.
Until last year, I had no intentions of coming at odds with Mr. Aytes, nor had I really developed an opinion of him.
The Kingston Lions Club held its annual pancake breakfast on Saturday, March 28 .
It was a great success, with over 200 persons being served.
Even the weatherman provided a beautiful day.
The Lions have a great number of businesses and individuals to thank for their help.

Center on Congress
A robust, inquisitive congressional oversight process should be capable of revealing what is too often hidden, but it's not. We need journalists to do it.
I have been involved in politics and policy-making for over 50 years, and as you can imagine, I hold strong feelings about reporters and the media.
They're not what you might think, however.
Last month's announcement that high-tech firm CVMR is moving its international headquarters to Roane County is a real opportunity for growth.
Not only has the company promised hundreds of high-paying jobs, but it also will impact other sectors, both economic and involving quality of life.
It is up to our community leaders to capitalize on the opportunities CVMR and those who are sure to follow are laying at our feet.
Solving problems in our democracy requires bringing different points of view together, talking face-to-face with others who may differ with you, and learning that these differences can exist without personal animosity.
The question usually comes toward the end of a public meeting. Some knotty problem is being discussed, and someone in the audience will raise his or her hand and ask, "OK, so what can I do about it?"
I love that question. Not because I've ever answered it to my satisfaction, but because it bespeaks such a constructive outlook.
Wouldn't this be a wonderful world if some of these brilliant folks used their powers for good?
Our thieving "friends" working the phones overtime are at it again — lying and conniving to cheat hard-working people out of their money by evoking the name "IRS."
I can't stress it enough: Friends, the IRS will never call nor email you about taxes or penalties you may owe.
If the caller says he or she is with the IRS, it's a bald-faced lie. Do NOT believe it.
After 14 years of helping Roane County's needy people with free clothing, furniture, household goods and food, The Clothes Closet in Rockwood is closing its door due to the poor health of the owners and lack of funding.
We sincerely thank each one who donated either items or money to keep the charity open.
We still have some items to donate to anyone from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., should you come by and pick them up.
Our final day will be April 30 or sooner when everything is gone.

Jill Jelnick
June 11, 2013
IRVING, Texas – Jill Jelnick is among 12 Conference USA student-athletes who will receive the C-USA Spring Spirit of Service award as it was announced Tuesday by league commissioner Britton Banowsky. The C-USA Spirit of Service award is designed to recognize the community service efforts of the league's student-athletes, based upon significant community service, good academic standing and participation in their elected sport.
Jelnick earned the award for the first time in her career after giving back to the Greenville community and achieving success in the classroom as well as for the Pirate softball team. The junior from Aliso Viejo, Calif., maintained a perfect 4.0 grade point average as an English major and was a member of the 2012 Capital One Academic All-America Second Team and a three-time C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll selection and Academic Medal recipient. Jelnick has been twice selected to the C-USA All-Academic softball team.
She has been involved with more than 20 community outreach events, which included serving as captain of the 2013 Relay for Life as well as numerous Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) initiatives. Jelnick was also in charge of the softball team's 2nd Annual Pink Ribbon game to help raise awareness for breast cancer research. Additionally, she produced a video of the team speaking about breast cancer which provided facts on the subject between innings. She also organized give-away prizes, a pink ribbon dedication board, publicity and pink ribbon attire for the team.
The award is presented three times throughout the season, with these honorees representing Conference USA's spring sports: baseball, men's and women's golf, women's rowing, softball, men's and women's tennis and men's and women's outdoor track and field.

|Extra Credit: "The Man..."
In this story, a man who is seeming alright is told to go ot the hospital by his neurologist, who said that he had a "lazy" left leg. He was fine all day, and he took a nap in the evening and was fine, until he moved into the bed. There he "found" a severed human leg that he thought to be "peculiar" and cold. The he decided that it was a joke for New Year's Eve, that a nurse had moved it from the Dissecting Room into his bed. He threw it out of his bed, but he went with it, and it wound up attached to him. He was convinced that a foreign leg had attached to him, but he couldn't explain where the limb it had replaced had gone. He sees and feels it as being a foreign object, but to all outwards appearances it is his normal leg. This is caused by a lack of awareness in his hemiplegic limb.

EastWest Ministry of Rock Virtual Instrument Library
EastWest has introduced Quantum Leap Ministry of Rock, a huge 18 gigabyte collection of rock drums, basses and guitars recorded in EASTWEST Studio 2, featured on countless platinum and gold records.
Ministry of Rock was created with one goal in mind: to create a virtual instrument capable of producing sounds that can actually produce a hit record or film score without any live drum, bass or guitar overdubs. Articulations and programming were all reverse engineered from actual performances.
- Drum kits sampled for Ministry of Rock include Octaplus (nine toms), Ayotte, Ludwig and Gretsch, the latter the actual kit used to make Metallica's "Black" album. Drum kits are also optimized for use with Roland V-Drums.
- Basses include Fender P-Bass Custom, Fender 5-string, Specter and Kubiki basses. All were recorded through an Ampeg SVT and an Ashdown rig.
- Guitars recorded for Ministry of Rock include Fender Telecaster and Stratocaster, Gibson Les Paul, Ibanez Universe 7 and various PRS guitars, all recorded through Marshall, Fender, Bogner, Vox and Budda amplifiers.

The 'Automapped' plug-in appears as normal, only it now displays an Automap Universal logo, which glows when actively controlled. As soon as any plug-in is selected on the SL, parameters appear on the screens, laid out logically across all 64 assignable controls and displayed on the screens above.

ST. LOUIS — The San Francisco years have been the bust of times for Barry Zito, but in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series against the Cardinals Friday, it was the best of times for the eccentric lefthander, who had his glory days with the Oakland A's before signing a $126 million contract to pitch in the City by the Bay.
Zito pitched 7⅔ scoreless innings and saved the day for the Giants, who faced elimination at Busch Stadium. Instead, Zito sent them back to AT
Call them the sleeping Giants, but the Cardinals have awoken them at a time when they easily could have put them away for good.
"We didn't think for a moment that they would go away," St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said. "We ran into a guy out there today and he pitched us tough. [Zito] was raising eye-level, taking speeds off his breaking ball. If you can locate and keep us off balance you don't need to throw 99."
Zito, who allowed six hits, walked one (intentionally), and struck out six, said of his performance, "All things considered I have playoff memories but they're all in a different uniform so this is the biggest one for me."
Zito seemed to revive his career this season, posting a 15-8 record with a 4.15 ERA in 32 starts.
"I couldn't be happier for him," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "He's done a great job for us this year. We've won 13 straight with him on the mound now. He always found a way to win a game for us. He's been through a lot, I know. You go back to 2010, but this guy is some kind of tough and a stand-up guy. We were comfortable with him on the mound."
In 2010, Zito was left off the postseason roster as the Giants went on to win the World Series.
"It was a blow to be left off that postseason roster, but you have to be professional about it. I went back and worked on a lot of things and I think I learned a lot," Zito said.
Bochy has been impressed with the way Zito has handled adversity in his Giants career.
"You have to give him credit how he's handles things," Bochy said. "Rags (pitching coach Dave Righetti) talks to him quite a bit. He's relentless in trying to get better as a pitcher. He came in this spring and had a rough spring. We lost the first three games of the season and he goes and throws a shutout against Colorado and he's been consistent all year," Bochy said.
The fourth inning was a killer for Cardinals starter Lance Lynn, who allowed four unearned runs to give the Giants a 4-0 lead.
"I thought he was as good as I've seen for the first three innings," Matheny said. "I thought he was untouchable. He was really pitching."
Marco Scutaro got the first hit off Lynn with a leadoff single in the fourth, followed by another single to right by Pablo Sandoval. After a strikeout of Buster Posey, who is having a poor postseason at the plate (6 for 33 entering the game), Hunter Pence looked to have done Lynn a large favor by tapping back to the mound.
Lynn was thinking double play for sure. He spun around and threw the ball right to the second base bag. Trouble is, shortstop Pete Kozma, who was playing in the hole, didn't get there in time. The ball bounced off the bag into center field, scoring the first Giants run.
After Brandon Belt popped to second base, Gregor Blanco walked to load the bases. Shortstop Brandon Crawford delivered a two-run single up the middle.
Then came what might have been the most athletic play of the game, and it was by Zito. He dragged a bunt down the third base line and beat it out for a hit, scoring the fourth Giants run.
"It was definitely my first-ever bunt hit. You have to have some speed to beat out a bunt so it has to be perfect. I don't run that well, so I saw an opportunity there. I knew I couldn't get a hit against Lynn," Zito said.
The Cardinals had a golden opportunity in the second inning when they loaded the bases with one out on a single by Yadier Molina, a double by David Freese, and an intentional walk to Kozma that brought Lynn to the plate. Zito induced a 6-4-3 double play to deflate the Cardinals and the sea of red at Busch Stadium.
"I'm not a sinkerball pitcher so I never think I'm going to get a ground ball there, but I was very happy it happened because it took us out of a tough situation," Zito said.
The crowd kept waving their homer hankies, made some noise, and tried to instill some urgency into the Cardinal offense in the seventh inning.
It was thought Zito would tire by this point, but once again he came out throwing strikes and wound up quieting the crowd.
"I was living pitch to pitch and moment to moment," Zito said.

A California witness at Fresno reported watching and photographing a disc-shaped UFO hovering about 1,000 feet overhead at First and Nees streets about 6:30 p.m. on February 24, 2014, according to testimony in Case 54277 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness had been shopping at that intersection and looked up and noticed the "stationary object" in the sky.
"The skies were clear and there were no other aircraft in the area," the witness stated. "I observed the object for about 10 to 15 minutes."
The witness described the object.
"The object made no noise and was stationary. I am guessing that it was at least 1,000 feet or more. It is difficult to estimate size and height without having something to compare it to."
The witness also used a small pair of binoculars to look at the object and stated that it appeared to be larger than its lighted area. The witness submitted two images with the MUFON report, which was filed on February 25, 2014. Image 1 is of the object; and Image 2 appears to be a reference shot of the area taken during daylight.
Recent California UFO coverage includes several cases where witnesses were reporting the military chasing an unknown object. See the round-up story published February 21, 2014: Two more California witnesses report military chasing UFOs.
Fresno is a city in central California and is the county seat of Fresno County, population 509,000. California has a UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. California had 102 reports during January 2014 - the highest reporting state in the nation.
You can read more details about other recently reported cases at the UFO Examiner home page.
The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or man-made. If California MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

Established 1999
The Alaska Black-tail Deer, Scientific name: Odocoileus hemionus, inhabit the wet coastal forests of Alaska. The Black-tail Deer has a stockier build in the body but is smaller in size than other species of the Family of Deer (Cervidae). The male Deer or Buck Deer have antlers with a curved main-beam and typically have three tines or "points" on each side. The antler "basket" is smaller relative to other Deer species, and are shed annually after the Fall breeding season or "Rut". The female Deer , or Doe, does not grow antlers.
The Buck Deer attain a adult weight of about 120 pounds, and the Doe Deer attain a weight of about 80 pounds. The normal lifespan
of the Black-tail Deer is about 10 to 12 years.
The Black-tail Deer are browsers foraging on a variety of coastal plants and woody shrubs for their food supply. The movement of these Deer is relatively short distances and is caused by a changing food supply or seasonal weather conditions.
The Deer breeding season or Rut is in November. The Does breed for the first time in their second year of life, and normally have two offspring, or Fawns, each year. The Fawns spend the summer with the Doe and are weaned prior to the Fall Rut. The natural predators of Black-tail Deer are Wolves, Black Bears. They are most vulnerable when giving birth to their young. Because Venison is a
very excellent table-fare, the Black-tail Deer is a popular Alaska Big-game species with hunters.

Clavia have released a new official video demonstrating the capabilities of the Nord Lead 4 Performance Synthesizer. They tell us that the video, featuring Italian keyboard maestro Federico Solazzo, showcases in particular the realtime performance features of the Lead 4 together with its stunning all-new analogue modelled sound engine.
More information:
Nice demo & great sounding synth. Clavia has come a long way, but I wish they would drop the red color.
10-Jan-14 07:55 AM
Nord has been regurgitating the same crap for years now. The only innovation since the original Nord Lead came in the Nord Lead 3, and that was mostly the interface.
They refuse to disclose the internal resolution bit of their synths and they have for years used essentially the same synth engine in re-badged models!

10-Jan-14 10:20 AM
I love that they included digital waveforms (they're not wavetables, by the way), but it baffles me why they dropped the interface, filters, and pressure sensitivity of the NL3. Or the more usable effect selection from the Nord Wave. (I know there were compliance issuses with the NL3's encoders, but other companies have done them since.)
10-Jan-14 07:08 PM
I'm sure cost was a significant factor in regards to the knobs, but in general that interface was great.
I just wish they'd included aftertouch on the NL4, but otherwise, it's a great instrument, and really does sound different from the 2x.

10-Jan-14 10:24 PM
Why as a Swedish company got some cheesey American voice advertising it. It sounds like shit this advert and the synth price is extortionate.
11-Jan-14 03:44 PM
what's with the room of wooden crates?is this to convey the impression that this keyboard is 'underground', 'real', 'authentic' etc? or is it that the marketing is just a bit shit? answers on a postcard, please.
12-Jan-14 06:39 PM
Sorry,but I f***ing HATE that sound.If one has a synthesizer,SYNTHESIZE.Don't regurgitate that seventies bullshit.
14-Jan-14 05:44 PM
Too much money. Clavia make some quality stuff but really? $2000+ dollars for a VA with no aftertouch and not even a 2 line LCD screen? The internal FX and the individual outs are welcome but I don't see this synth as being long lived at that price.
14-Jan-14 06:37 PM
Dan and Blake, you are spot on! Clavia claims and becomes defensive that this is what the "people" want. Just call them and ask them why they do not have an LCD screen to merely see the ADSR or some of the other functions...or why the retro sound...and do not ask them about the internal resolution. You will get nowhere. They will tell you it is classified.
16-Jan-14 10:20 AM
Dreadful video and I do wonder why they charge so much for a VA these days?
16-Jan-14 11:54 AM
I love my Nord Lead 3 ... super easy to play, sounds awesome and not drenched in effects (no onboard F/X). I grew up on early 80s synths (I was one of first in town to have a SCI Pro One, and used to stalk PAIA!). Love the red, love the stick, mod wheel, and was hoping this would be like the 3 + some from Wave. But only a handful "got" the NL3 .. and so this is the evolution of the NL2 ... what customers want. Most can't even play aftertouch (not really used for playing band gigs). Love the stutter edit kind of morph thing, though.
16-Jan-14 06:07 PM
The artist who makes the best use of the Nord brand of synths is Infected Mushroom. Erez Eizen knows how to manipulate and mangle the sounds like a real VA should sound. Clavia should hire them.
19-Jan-14 10:59 AM
Wow that's not a very interesting demo, and IT's HOW MUCH? JESUS! Whaaaat??? Sorry. They're having a laugh.

The sun beat relentlessly on the back of Tim Murphy's neck as he squatted beside the exposed skull of a Dilophosaurus. Most of the specimen hadn't been uncovered yet, but the skull crests and notch between the premaxillary and maxillary bones were telltale signs. The bits he could see so far indicated that this particular specimen was probably pretty well articulated, maybe even museum quality.
He could almost picture it in life; thick, reptilian-like skin stretched over the skull. The crests, thin as a bat's wing spreading from either side of the skull base. Long but weak teeth lined up, giving the creature a crocodile-like head. In his mind's eye he was looking at Dilophosaurus, but he heard only the hissing growls of V. mongoliensis.
That sound was one that haunted him constantly. At night, sometimes, he would wake from a nightmare with his mouth dry and cottony, his eyes wet with silent tears, arms straight out in the air as if to block some invisible attacker. Stepping into the dark hallway between his bedroom and his bathroom, every creak of his footsteps and every whine of the settling house was potentially a raptor, perhaps hiding in the closet or behind the door leading to the attic. It was coming up the stairs or sliding out from under his bed; wherever it came from, it wanted one thing only: to plunge its retracted claw into his spine, severing his spinal cord and paralyzing him before eating him.
After he and Lex had, by some miracle, survived their grandfather's unfortunately designed theme park, Tim found solace in the knowledge that the park, the dinosaurs, the entire island had been burned to the ground with bombs and flamethrowers. Whatever weapons the Costa Rican military had at their disposal were used to render the volcanic island to ash and cinder. Tim suspected if there had been a way to reactivate the volcano that created the island, they would have done so to destroy any evidence of what had once been there. He and Lex both slept soundly, knowing it was all gone.
And then San Diego happened. A Tyrannosaurus loose in the streets like some horror movie monster. An then his grandfather on television, battling verbally with the new InGen spokesperson about what to do with the second island: destroy it or preserve it. Bring about another extinction or leave the animals—some of which could fly for chrissake—to survive on their own.
The first night of the news coverage, Tim began wetting the bed again. He would lay until dawn in his sodden bed sheets, paralyzed with fear, afraid to move a muscle; knowing somehow that if he breathed too loud, they would find him and kill him.
"Dr. Murphy?"
Tim jerked his head upwards quickly and squinted into the sun at Nikki and Erica, two of his top graduate students. They looked a little uncomfortable, as though they'd burst into his bedroom and found him there naked. He tried quickly to clear his face of the fear he knew must be there and grunted in response.
"The computer locked up again, and we need an admin password," Nikki said tentatively, almost as though it were a question.
Tim stood slowly, stretching out the cramps in his legs and brushed some of the dirt off his face. He climbed up inside the trailer and washed his hands, the raptors' cries still echoing in his head. Next to the computer terminal was a stack of mail one of his students loyally brought in from the PO Box weekly. While the computer rebooted, he shuffled through the stack uninterestedly. It was usually the same: overdue bills, requests for interview, offers for book deals, and the occasional death threat calling him a liar and part of a government conspiracy. He'd been receiving them since the San Diego incident, once the general public caught wind of the theme park. A few leaked memos from InGen released the names of the visitors and a few employees, none of whom had lived in peace since. Ian Malcolm had done the interviews for a few years, but mostly, it seemed, to plug his books and attempt to explain chaos theory and mathematical iterations to people who just wanted to hear about the dinosaurs. Tim had ignored all requests for two major reasons; one being that there simply weren't words to explain what it felt like to be hunted, and the other being that he knew, especially now, that they would have questions he couldn't answer, such as why, after his experience, he became a paleontologist. How, after facing down death at the claws of these creatures, he still retained an interest in and even some semblance of love for them.
He couldn't answer because he didn't know. He was bright; he'd scored a 1460 on his SATs and retained a 4.0 GPA throughout his undergraduate and graduate studies. He excelled in physics, computer science, chemistry, and any math they could throw at him. He could have been a medical doctor, a theoretical physicist, a brilliant mathematician like Malcolm, but he'd chosen instead to spend his life knee deep in fossilized remains of animals who had once tried to kill him. Lex, who had surprisingly given up her interest in computers and opted to become a psychiatrist on the Upper East Side, much to their father's chagrin, loved to pick his psyche apart over this. She claimed that spending his time dealing with dead dinosaurs was a result of his desire to regain power over the ones who had tried to kill him. Usually, pointing out that she'd given up on the very skill she used to save their lives and choosing to nurture neurotic housewives was all he had to do to get her to shut up, but sometimes he wondered if she was on the money with that observation. Maybe it was some kind of power play—what did he know about psychology, anyway?
As he pawed through the stack, a thick beige envelope with a blue logo stood out and he tugged it from between the others. It was from The Paleontological Association. Furrowing his brows, he tore into the envelope and pulled out the letter. After the first few sentences, the words began to blur and morph, looking like nothing more than hieroglyphs. The gist was that there was to be an expedition to Isla Nublar, the site of Jurassic Park, to study the now-decomposed remains of the animals that had been destroyed, the basis of which was to compare those remains to known fossil remains.
Tim sank to the floor of the trailer, the paper quivering in his hand. Surely, he'd known this day would come; the day where scientists could no longer resist the urge to compare John Hammond's genetic mutations with the real deal and reconcile exactly how accurate it was to call his creations "dinosaurs". He tasted his own words to his students in his mouth.
"Science for the sake of science is the only way anything useful is discovered."
This reasoning was practically as old as science itself; the idea that the best scientific discoveries are made by those who had other intentions. After all, didn't Fleming discover penicillin accidentally? Didn't we go to the moon just to see if we could? Is it not in the pursuit of pure scientific curiosity that so many other, more useful discoveries are made?
They'd invited him, of course. They wanted him to head the expedition because who better than someone who had been there before? Someone who could tell them where the Tyrannosaurus had lived and where they could locate several articulated Velociraptor specimens?
Of course he would say no. He was hard pressed to think of a place where he would less rather be than that island, except the second island, where the dinosaurs were by all accounts still alive and active. To go back to the very place that was the source of every nightmare he had to sift through dirt and remains, when he had dirt and remains aplenty right here? Of course he would say no.
But, he reasoned, what if Lex was right in her psychological theories? What if digging up dinosaurs was his way of asserting power and control over them? Wouldn't it then make sense if he could stand over the bones of the very animals that had attacked him? The image of himself standing victorious over the skeletons of the raptors in the visitor's center made his heart skip a beat, and he let out a breath he didn't even realize he'd been holding. His blood surged with the idea of putting to rest the fear that had plagued him for most of his life. Of course he would go and lead their expedition, and he would smile, his muscles finally relaxing, when he laid hands on their bare bones. He would see them as what they really were—animals; deceased animals, their bones bleaching in the sun, while he stood tall and proud, alive. Maybe then he could sleep that restful sleep of the fearless; maybe then he would stop feeling the hot, rotten breath of raptors breathing down his neck every time he turned a corner or closed his eyes.
Of course he would go.

text: Johannesburg - The Lions were dealt another injury blow ahead of Saturday's Absa Currie Cup clash against the Leopards when wing Lionel Mapoe picked up a knee injury during Wednesday morning's training session at Jeppe Boys High. "Lionel incurred an injury in training on Wednesday and Dylon (des Fountain) will come into his position," Lions coach John Mitchell confirmed when naming his side. Mitchell has again rewarded on-field character with consistency in his team selection, with injuries forcing the only three changes he made. As expected, Josh Strauss will take over the role as captain while regular skipper Doppies La Grange recovers from a hamstring injury. La Grange, who should to be fit for next week's derby against the Blue Bulls, will be replaced by Alwyn Hollenbach in midfield. Hollenbach's place on the bench will be filled by either Jannie Boshoff or Lions Under-21 fullback Andries Coetzee. In the only other change to the team, Michael Rhodes returns after serving out a five-week suspension and will start on the bench ahead of Dries van Schalkwyk. Despite having started the season with two consecutive wins, Mitchell said his side would have to respect the Leopards who, according to the Lions mentor, played a good brand of rugby with ball in hand. "The important thing for us this week is to get better and focus on our performance. That is all that matters," said Mitchell. "If we go into this match concerning ourselves about what the Leopards do or what they don't do, rather than focussing on our own performance, we will have a tough night." Toughness has become synonymous with the way Strauss approaches the game, and the skipper said nothing would change because he had been elected to lead the team. "When you consider there are guys like Wikus (van Heerden) and Cobus (Grobbelaar) who have been there for years, it makes taking over from Doppies much easier." said Strauss. "The whole team see themselves as leaders so it is not too big a task."Teams Lions: 15 Michael Killian, 14 Deon van Rensburg, 13 Waylon Murray, 12 Alwyn Hollenbach, 11 Daylon des Fountain, 10 Burton Francis, 9 Jano Vermaak, 8 Joshua Strauss (captain), 7 Derick Minnie, 6 Cobus Grobbelaar, 5 Franco van der Merwe, 4 Wikus van Heerden, 3 Jacobie Adriaanse, 2 Bandise Maku, 1 Patric Cilliers Substitutes: 16 Martin Bezuidenhout, 17 JC Janse van Rensburg, 18 Johan Snyman, 19 Michael Rhodes, 20 Michael Bondesio, 21 Hein Cronje, 22 Jannie Boshoff/Andries CoetzeeLeopards:TBA

On Thursday night, with the Miami Heat having assured their second straight title after three Finals appearances since LeBron James left Cleveland for South Beach, WEWS meteorologist Mark Johnson delivered an entire midsummer weather forecast without using the word "heat."
Even in Cleveland, a town that seems to go from brutal Lake Erie-blown cold to the dead of summer over the course of a fortnight, this effort was tougher than you'd imagine. Watch:
Some have criticized Johnson for the maneuver, pointing out that it's been nearly three years since LeBron James' infamous "Decision," telling the man and his fans to move on. Even after 105 regular and postseason Miami Heat games since October, the anti-Heat enmity that ran amok during most of the 2010-11 season seems to have dimmed a bit, and it might probably be time for guys like Johnson to take it easy, and focus on more Cleveland-y matters.
Then again, it's a local weather broadcast on a random Thursday in June, with Johnson giving the same forecast that he'll probably have to give nearly nightly from now until the leaves change colors. It's just fine for the guy to mix it up a bit and have some fun. To stave off nature red in tooth and claw. To blow away the boredom, in front of a green screen.
We get it, Mark Johnson. Good work with your thesaurus, my man.

Band history still to come.
More Reviews Current Updates Print article Rating explanation
This quaint little EP features a trio of four minute tracks consisting of Melo-Death (don't you hate that term?) which is relatively low-key and altogether typical. Rhythmically CLOSER are relatively similar to a Thrash act, pounding your skull with up-tempo compositions and straying from this accord only to toss in a slower melodic lead or vocal variation. This formula makes for only slight variation in a somewhat stale album which suffers from continual blandness.
Riffing is often what separates quality from mediocrity and this debut EP is textbook for making the case. "Darkness In Me" is not horrible or particularly weak, it simply is not full of life and never manages to grab your attention. The watered down Thrash riff-work always remains par for the course sounding like a mix of THE HAUNTED and IN FLAMES. Nothing ever really happens and any foreseeable climax is wholeheartedly avoided.
I do actually enjoy the production which is a bit rougher than the norm for this sub-genre. There's a slight static buzz to the axes and it gives the riffing a bit more of a bite than the alternative. While this does not manage to save the compositions from the dense stale air surrounding their invention, it does pique interest in a minor fashion and allows for a solid foundation which acts as serviceable background music.
CLOSER certainly possess inklings of promise, but I'm far from sold on their direction. The riffing could use an injection of intensity and the song-writing would benefit from a face-lift. Most forms of artistic medium are cluttered with acts which never quite live up to expectations, and at this point I would have to lump this five-piece in with the clutter.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Alex Smith will miss tonight's game vs. the Chicago Bears due to lingering effects from a concussion suffered against St. Louis last week.
Smith couldn't get through the battery of concussion tests, Chris Mortensen of ESPN reported. Colin Kaepernick, who has played in limited situations, will get the start.
The second year quarterback from Nevada will give the 49ers the opportunity to evaluate him and see if he has any long term potential.
He was drafted in the 2nd round, 36th overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft and is seen as the future for the 49ers. In limited duty, Kaepernick has a QB Rating of 86.4, 206 yards, and no touchdowns.

In his speech to the standing committee for democracy and human rights, Dr. Muhammad Al-Hilwa outlined the progress of the Shura Council in the Kingdom, and the attention Saudi Arabia has been giving to the issue of human rights, which, he said, are protected in the Saudi system of governance, in line with the teachings of Islam. Citing the fact that the recently-established non-governmental National Human Rights Association (NHRA) includes ten women members, 25 percent of the total, he reiterated the Kingdom's concern to enable Saudi women to practice their rights in accordance with Shariah [Islamic Law].
In an address to the standing committee for sustainable development, finance and trade, Abdul-Muhsin Al-Akas stated that while the current global economic changes are good for advanced nations, they will have an adverse impact on developing countries, which cannot compete. He confirmed Saudi Arabia's support for sustainable development in line with fair standards of economy and trade.

Six Southwest Kansas missionaries, who were in Haiti during the earthquake, are unharmed and doing well.
On Wednesday, it was reported that Pastor Terry Major with the Pierceville Federated Church was fine, but no one else was mentioned. Later, family members received email and text messages that everyone was accounted for.
The building where the missionaries are staying is fortified, and they have a sufficient supply of food and water. A house across the street collapsed during the earthquake and killed at least one.
The trip was scheduled to last twelve days, but many are asking to stay longer and help with the disaster efforts.

So here is the answer to Weekend Where Is It?
The first picture was taken in Naples, Florida. It is on Venetian Bay. I was sitting in a restaurant at Village on Venetian Bay, when I took the photo.
The second picture is indeed Venice, Italy. I was on a boat on my way to Murano Island to go to a Murano glass factory to see a glass blowing demonstration.

Taking a Hard Look at the "Benefits" of Olive Oil
Careful reading of FDA-approved health claim sheds light on potential weighty problems.
The FDA recently allowed olive oil and certain foods containing olive oil to put a health claim on their labels that includes the following sentence:
"Limited and not conclusive scientific evidence suggests that eating about two tablespoons (23 grams) of olive oil daily may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease due to the monounsaturated fat in olive oil."
If you are a fan of olive oil, that sentence is good news, especially if you skip over the "Limited and not conclusive scientific evidence..." part and the qualifying words "may reduce." But, weak as it is, that sentence is only part of the FDA's approved language. The sentence that follows it contains the most important information contained in the approved health claim.
"To achieve this possible benefit, olive oil is to replace a similar amount of saturated fat and not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day."
This sentence tells us that the "possible benefit" is only possible if you eliminate some existing saturated fat in your diet (such as butter), replace it with an equal amount of olive oil, and don't let the addition of olive oil to the diet increase the total amount of calories from fat. Unfortunately, many consumers won't heed this vitally important part of the message.
That part about not increasing the total amount of calories from fat is not so easy to accomplish because olive oil is an incredibly calorie-dense food—containing around 4,000 calories per pound. A little bit adds a lot of fat calories.
During the past 25 years, we have seen an epidemic of obesity in America. If you add just two tablespoons of olive oil (240 calories) daily on top of an already poor quality diet—without eliminating an equal amount of calories from other sources—you could gain as much as twenty four pounds in a single year! Clearly, this aspect of olive oil consumption is not a health benefit.
For real health benefits, skip the olive oil, take a walk, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables.

How to deal with bullies like Jesus did: Hate the sin, love the sinner
Did you ever consider that Jesus was bullied? Oh, yes, the Pharisees and Saducees – religious leaders of His day – couldn't stand Him. This was really tough because he was, is, and always will be God. (John 1:1, 14; 10:30; etc.)
Jesus told Peter he could call down 10,000 angels to destroy the world when he was taken away to be crucified. But, He didn't. Why not? Well, obvioulsy, He came to die for our sins, be buried, and rise again the third day. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4, etc.) His death was a punishment for our sins – He took that for each one of us. (1 Cor. 5:21)But, there's another, special reason.
that reason is that He loves us. The recent incident at Rutgers, along with the deaths of various high school students, show there is a terrible problem.
Excellent resources for dealing with bullying, both in stopping the bullies and heling victims, have been found, such as this handy list of ways to cope. There is one other thing to consider before things get that bad, for those who are victims of bullying.
Students bully others for different reasons, as is noted in the last link above. However, one thing that everyone needs is to hear and see unconditional love.
First, for victims, you are loved no matter what by God. However, unless you trust Him forgive you for your sins, as mentioned above, you can't have a relationship with Him. That is because yall of us have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23) The wages of sin – what we earn because of our sin – is death, separation from God's perfect love forever in a horrible place of suffereing. But, the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23) That gift is received by faith alone, in Christ alone and what He did for us on the cross. (Romans 10:9-10, Ephesians 2:8-9)
One you receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, invite Him into your heart, and you will be made a new creature on the inside. (2 Corinthians 5:17) Jesus Christ will come to live in you and work in your heart to make you mroe like Him.
Then, He will help you through everything. He promises "In this world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." (John 16:33) the Gospel of John is a great place to start out reading and learning more about Him.
In the meantime, He can also help you to have peace when others are mean. He has been through everything similar to what we face today. he didn't have video games, but he had games, for instance.
You can have peace, then, that He will see you through. He can see anyone through anyone. He will also give you courage to say "I love you in Christ" to those who dislike you.
That is important, because you will then have the Lord in you, and He can help you help them to change, bit by bit, simply by showing Christ's love for them. And, by using the power of prayer to change things.
Bullies must realize that there is unconditional love for them out there. They dont' have to put others down to be special to God, becuase He is grieved any time someone feels hated. The bullies must break the bad habits early by learning to gather things like the Fruits of the Spirit – love, joy, peace, etc..
See, wanting power and control over someone is wrong. it's what the devil does. And, when we try to control others for selfish purposes, we are letting the devil control us.
Instead, we need to realize the freedom being in Christ gives us. God's Word, the Bible, promises "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13)
This, by the way, is also excellent advice from someone in a relationship (marriage, boyfriend/girlfriend/whatever) where they are being bullied. God has given you the power to end that controlling nature of the devil. When the Bible speaks of Jesus "leading captivity captive," it isn't just talking about letting captives free who are prisoners for crimes. Many times, we imprison ourselves or allow others to imprison us. But, Jesus holds the key to escape.
The key to escape is *not* by leaving this world, though it will be when God calls us home someday. The key to escape is a spiritual one. it involves being free from being bullied or from being a bully. instead, God let's us learn to form relationships based on mutual love adn trust.
The first key is to draw close to others, ask the Lord to help you and your family become closer to each other express your feelings more through words. If you can't with them, find friends who are willing to listne. But first, if you are a bully, you must trust the Lord to help you do this.
It might be hard, if people have let you down so much. But, all it takes is one little smiden of faith. And, that starts by realizing that God is not a man, that He should lie. God is the one who made this world and everything, including you. He loves you.
However, thousands of years ago, sin was brought into the world through disobedience. People followed the devil and his ways of controlling, and lusting after the flesh.
God will one day punish all sin, and it will be thrown in a lake of fire to burn forever. perhaps you would like to see others there, becuase people have been mean to you. But, remember, all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. We're not perfect. If we don't form that perfect, unconditional loving relationship with God, we will die in our sins and go to that horrible place where sin will be punished.
God loved each of us, though – He doesn't want you to go there. he is pleading with all who red to turn to Him before it is too late.All it takes is a single, sincere prayer of repentence int he Lord Jesus. Just talk to God, and: Admit you're a sinner, that you fall short of His perfect love. Believe that Jesus Christ, God in flesh, died for your sins and rose fromt he dead; He took your punishment becuase you can't get to Heaven on your own. And, Choose to repent and receive Him as your Savior, inviting Him into your heart to save you from your sins and forgive you, and to make you new ont he inside.
And, please, go out and share that Godly love with others, showing them a change. Becuase, when people see changed lives, they will believe there is a difference. That will be having a positive impact,a nd taking control by letting God use you in positive way. You will be spreading true, unconditinoal love around.
And, this world needs so much mroe love. Not just shallow, physical love, but deep, intimate, personal love. he can help you have that, if you only trust Him.
I went back to school for Masters in Ministry after years as wills & estates attorney. I'm looking for work as an evangelist or pastor somewhere; e-mail me if you'd like to takl to me about coming to your church. I have numerous visual and other handicaps the Lord has helped me overcome, & have lived on my own for years, with no need for asight aides; I can even read print like this with my nise a few inches away for hours on end. the Lord has been so good to me.

Its supposed to be that if you encounter a group of HK-50's with HK-47 in your party, they will mention that they are unable to attack(like you said), however, you will still have to fight them, though HK-47 will be removed from your party for the duration of the fight.(He'll be put back once you are finished)

Visquis says something like "You must have angered Goto greatly..." yada yada, then the screen fades. Then when it comes back, Visquis is gone, Hanharr is still there, and I continue the quest as I did before installing the mod.
Show spoiler
(hidden content -
The trouble with Nar Shadaa being 'complete', would be the fact that the original storyline for the planet included the Genohardan, which didn't make it to far past being just story. Along with this, it was one of two parts were the Exile was to have a in-story "Death"(not permanently), and most agree that two is overkill. The second was to be on M4-78, the planet cut from the game(though a lot of materials for it exist within the game files) .
