Fruit Ninja: Puss In Boots, a movie tie-in version of the ultra-popular produce-slicing game from Halfbrick Studios, is now available from the app store. While remaining very similar to its predecessor, the Puss In Boots version brings with it an exciting new game mode that makes the sequel a worthwhile pick-up.
Fruit Ninja: Puss In Boots Pros:
- Same terrific graphical presentation as the original with movie-themed backdrops
- Bandito mode is fantastic and worth the price of admission alone
- Simple swipe controls are responsive and intuitive
- Spanish-guitar inspired soundtrack and PIB voiceovers add to the experience
- GameCenter and OpenFeint integration for leaderboards and achievements to earn
Fruit Ninja: Puss In Boots Cons:
- Relatively few backdrops and swords to unlock
- Most of the familiar game modes have been left out
Fans of the original should recognize Desperado mode as a slightly modified version of Classic mode, where fruit is propelled into view from the screen bottom, requiring you to swipe your finger across the airborne citrus before it falls back from whence it came. Successful swipes result in points, with critical and combo bonuses upping your score even more. Bombs are also tossed into the fruit salad mix, with a single touch ending your attempt in spectacular fashion. You also have 3 hearts, which are lost for each piece of fruit that you let fall by the wayside. Lose your hearts and the game is over. Desperado does add a magic bean that offers a 25-point boost when sliced (or it restores a heart if you've lost any), but other than some themed backgrounds and the occasional quip from the main character himself, you've played this before.
The new standout features comes in the form of Bandito mode, a mini-campaign of bite-sized challenges that are a heck of a lot of fun. There are 4 games in each of 3 acts, as well as a Finale level. The 4 challenges are randomly-selected from an assortment of game types, and you are given the option to choose the order that you play the chosen 4 within each act. Each is rigidly timed, and each requires you to slice a specified number of fruits within that limit to pass to the next level. Hit a bomb in any game and you fail the attempt immediately and lose a heart. Lose all three and, for you, Bandito mode is done and you are out. You are scored after each mini-game on the percentage of fruit you sliced, your accuracy, and your reflexes. Your scores across all successfully-completed mini-games is aggregated to give you a final score. The games offer a terrific variety of styles. One sees you trying to slice fruit obscured by a single ginormous bouncing bomb. Another has you hack at a bunch of fruit that falls from the screen top in one large bunch before anti-gravity kicks in and it all floats back up. Several games involve a bunch of windows that open on cue, revealing a couple of bombs and several pieces of fruit. The windows are only open for a moment and you usually have just a single chance to swipe what you can. It mixes up the gameplay very well, keeps things fresh, and keeps you on your toes as you're never quite sure what to expect. We wouldn't be surprised to see this included in a future update of the original.
Graphically, Fruit Ninja retains the same great look as the original, save for some new backgrounds and sword swipes that are unlocked in your Stash by completing certain requirements, similar to the Dojo in the original. Visuals are crisp, the presentation is clean, and the animations are fluid. The soundtrack has a Spanish influence, no doubt tying into the movie's theme. It is a catchy tune that fits the overall aesthetic of the game quite well. Puss's quips also have a thick accent and come across as playfully fun, used sparingly so as not to annoy or feel like the movie tie-in is constantly in your face. Controls require swiping only and are just as responsive and intuitive as ever.
Replay value is great, as the game is addictive and Bandito mode should keep gamers enthralled for a long time. The unlockable backdrops and swords give us an additional reason to keep playing, as does GameCenter and OpenFeint integration for leaderboards and achievements. While we would have liked to see some of the other game modes make an appearance, Bandito mode provides enough incentive to tackle this version. At $0.99 (or $1.99 for the HD version), Fruit Ninja: Puss In Boots earns a muy bueno 4.5-Dimple score.

As a result of this unusual series of events, I contacted a local Computer Technician, and requested he run a check on my machine. He discovered several suspicious programs and files had been installed without my knowledge. Now certain of fraud, I asked him to delve deeper into the "technician"s ostensible website.
After in-depth research, including a domain name background check, the website was revealed to be fraudulent. The profile pictures in the "Testimonials" section are all stock photographs from popular stock photo websites. The "Products" advertised are simply images of branded and well-known products with their identifying marks removed. The "Expert Comments" profile pictures are also fictional. Also, a careful reading of the wording on the website reveals glaring grammatical and contextual errors, as well as poor word choices, and spelling. Finally, most damming, the "Products" advertised do not exist, and instead only links that go nowhere are present.
Finally, the website is registered by "Domains By Proxy, LLC" a company indicted several times on this very website for fraudulent activity, and the domain name was registered only a few weeks ago, as of the time of this writing.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I really hope Dr Hattar Dental realizes their opportunity to fix this business and executes! Dr. Hattar Dental is perfect example of what a business should not be and does not need or want to be. I really hope Dr. Hattar Dental recognizes their opportunity to be better, be an example, put people first and executes on that commitment.
Poor Quality of Service, Poor Business Ethics, Deceptive/Dishonest Business Practices, Disrespectful Customer Service. Dr. Fahed Hattar and Office Manager Tina M. DO NOT consider the needs of patients
1.) Not making honest recommendations for needed care to patients; offering costs/co pays that differ from Insurance companies. When asked about the cost differences Office Manger Tina M. gets defensive (The RULE at Dr. Hattar's dental office: DO NOT ask questions we are always right and your opinion as a pateint does not matter, REMEMBER THAT). "Call your insurance company before you get here; Office Manager Tina M quotes "I don't have time to call insurance companies to get information (i.e. copays, cost of services, patient care schedules, etc.) - says Office Manager Tina M. Then the Office Manager Tina M. shows her prefessionlism and level of education by placing the blame on the insurance company in a disrepectful, misguided and unproductive way in front of a lobby full of patients. I feel sorry for the Office Manager Tina M. I hope she gets the coaching and support she needs to improve her attitude, outlook on life, satisfaction in her job and an opportunity to experience communication coaching
2.) Dr. Hattar and the Office Manager Tina M. feel that they are doing patients a favor by providing their services; "It is a privilege to be a patient here" - Office Manager Tina M. states
3.) Dr. Hattar quoted " I don't know the numbers that is Office Manager Tina's responsiblility. That is the primary reason why businesses fail poor leadership and lack of knowledge pertaining to the daily functions of the business.
4.) Refused to provide service to patients based on the patient's specific need even after conversation. Recommending costlier services beyond patient's immediate need. I understand the economy is bad; however it is a doctors fiduciary responsiblity to do what is right for patients, execute honest business practices and grow a successful business. I DO NOT recommend anyone to establish a relationship with this dental office or return to this office if you are an existing patient. Do the right thing and support an honest dental office, dentist and office staff that puts the needs of it's patients first and grows a strong sustainable business.

Syllabus for PHYS 30180 (15/16)
|Physics Core Unit
|Credit Rating: 20
|Credit Rating: 10
|Lab Tutor: Dr. E. Kerins
Third Year Laboratory
Feedback will be offered orally by demonstrators in lab sessions, orally by demonstrators when they mark each experiment, and in writing for all lab reports.
Aims: Obje:
These are presented in Section 2 of this booklet.
Prerequisites: PHYS20101, PHYS20141, PHYS20161, PHYS20171,
Follow-up courses
4th year projects or postgraduate research.
Laboratory work is divided into four blocks, A and B in S5 and C and D in S6. Each block spans six weeks and is worth 10 credits. Lab blocks comprise 8 full days in the lab on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9.00am to 5.00pm, over four weeks, followed by an Assessment: in the fifth week and a written report completed during weeks five and six.
MPhys students usually perform one experiment in each semester (Block A or B + Block C or D)
BSc students undertake two experiments and a dissertation (PHYS30880) during Blocks A, B and C only.
Students may express a preference as to which blocks they take. However, the final choice of blocks for each student will be made by the Laboratory Tutor for logistic reasons.
Students in some degree programmes take only one block, as indicated on the programme pages.
Experiments last 12 full days: 8 days of experimental work plus 4 days for preparing presentations, and for assessment. Experiments will be assigned beforehand by the Laboratory Tutor on the basis of student requests.
Students will usually work in pairs on their experiment and will be given a great deal of freedom in the way they perform the experiments, but demonstrators will discuss the experiments with them at the beginning and will be available to assist and advise at all stages.
Assessment comprises of two components. The first is through a presentation and interview on completion of each experiment. The presentation is made jointly by the student pair. This component will take into account the following: experimental skill and logbook notes, the oral presentation, understanding of the relevant physics, quality of the results and the analysis, originality and initiative. The second component of assessment is through written reports of each experiment. Independent written reports are completed individually by each student and are assessed individually. Each written account must be in word-processed form. The credit split for the interview/report is 70/30. Dates for interviews and deadlines for written reports will be published well in advance and late penalties will apply.
Late submissions of lab reports
The standard penalties as detailed in Section 8.1 of the Blue Book will apply.
Late interviews
20 marks will be deducted if an interview is not booked by the end of the fourth week. If an interview is not booked by the end of the fifth week, or if students fail to show up for an arranged interview they will be awarded zero.
Please note that you are required to pass the lab (>40%) in order either to progress to year 4 of an MPhys course, or to graduate with an honours BSc. Students who fail lab may be awarded an ordinary BSc degree.
Induction to the Laboratory Course
All 3rd year students will attend at the beginning of the year, a presentation by the Laboratory Tutor and will receive from their Personal Tutors a handout describing in detail the organisation, philosophy, and methods of assessment.

i have a sneak feeling the gunners might get something there. that said their is a possibilty we could end up playing them 4 times in the next 6 weeks, cl semis, fa cup final and league. think they will lose next week to chelsea tho.
A Yahoo! User Apr 12, 2009 03:47 Flag
17, comes on last week and puts himself about and scores "that" goal, then called upon today and with his 1st touch puts it in the net, the 1 thing he has in abundance more than any other united player at the moment is confidence, probably feels he can win us every game, and who could blame him eh. got a feeling he is already hated by the scousers, bless him haha
A Yahoo! User Apr 12, 2009 03:53 Flag
Thats the beauty of youthful raw talent, they are fearless, it never lasts, but is one hell of an advantage whilst it lasts.
I say get him involved as much as possible (at the right times of course) from now until the end of the season.
Berbatov isn't doing jack sh*t, Tevez's work rate costs him productivity, and Rooneys incredible talent is just wasted by Fergie at the moment. Macheda is our only hope upfront!
Its still early days for the lad, but he's certainly made one heck of a first impression. He's saved us from dropping points 2 games in a row now in impressive style. Its mouthwatering to think of the prospect of what sort of partnership him and Rooney could potentially form. From what i've watched of him in the reserves, and the last 2 weeks, he's exactly the sort of striker I wanted us to sign last summer, as appose to Berbatov. Macheda up top with Rooney roaming behind him could be a deadly duo one day. I hope he gets a few more chances before the end of the season. I doubt Fergie will, but I would be half tempted to stick him in against Everton in the FA Cup next weekend and see what hes really made of
A Yahoo! User Apr 12, 2009 04:30 Flag
quite agree with you steve, play him with rooney behind, the beauty being everton wont know what to expect from macheda, i would start him, just 1 thing on berbatov, he is the player who could make the difference in the porto match, he is a different player and could be the 1 to win the game as he has that little something (when he wants to) to unlock the porto doors. if he does, please remember to comment lol
A Yahoo! User Apr 12, 2009 04:32 Flag
I agree Lynden, Berbatov is usually brilliant in the CL. However the Rooney-Tevez partnership should never have been tampered with, I want to see those two together more.
redevilmatt redevilmatt Apr 12, 2009 04:36 Flag
Beba had a good game today, and produced a great run holding off 2/3 players before releasing the ball to Rooney, whose cross made Scholes goal. He's had he's fits and starts this season, but I believe we will benefit from having him in the side, as he's totally different from most forwards. The lad has class. Ala Cantona!
A Yahoo! User Apr 12, 2009 04:39 Flag
yes rooney/tevez is more potent but like you say dimi has scored a few in the cl and i just have a feeling he could turn this round, he only needs to show that 1 piece of magic, a bit like our eric used to.
fa cup 96 proportions lol

Lynden, like i've said a few times now, I don't knock Berbatov as a player. I do honestly think he is a good player, just not what we needed, and he still doesn't really fit into our preferred and best suited style of play.
I hope you're right and he does produce a bit of magic that wins the game for us on Wednesday, and I will happily praise him all night long for it if he does!

I can not even get a phone call from individuals to answer questions or live up to any of their many promises to help me, in fact I actually had to hire a personal mentor to help me get started and they had promised to take care of the complete fee for his services, and I still ended up paying another $495 myself.

They call back maybe once out of 20 or so phone calls, ask you what the problem is, then say they will look into the problem and never call back with an answer.
It is in writing "Your director trains and assists you in making your first two sales.
The director retains the new sales. You become a director and now purchase direct from the wholesaler.
Since I bought in at a Director 3 level, I was told that they would help me to get started in the same way as stated above.
Multiple people in this company have made multiple promises which were never carried out. These people were Chris Williams, Gary Thomas, Virgil, Cedric and a few more that never returned calls or gave the help they promised.
Also, they supposedly have an automated system which is supposed to connect you to other affiliates so that should help to bring in some type of income and so far nothing has come in at all.
In 4 months with this company which claims that you can make thousands my return for $11,000 has been $400.

It did take a while for the ball to get rolling - partially because I was working extremely part time hours while working a full time job and partially because I was new to the industry and learning by doing.
It sounds like you are an "orphaned" Associate that purchased a Level 3 Package.
What happens is that some Directors for a number of resons will no longer be actively working their Coastal Business. What you need to do is to find another Level 3 Coastal Director, and make sure you are comfortable with them and question them thoroughly on their business plan and how they market the products to produce an income. Some are doing B2B for incentives, others are doing Fundraising, other Recruit, etc.
It sounds like the answer you are getting back from the Leadership team is assuming that you Purchased a Level 3 Director Kit and you have not received your Director's Release which is earned with the first two sales going up to your business mentor.
That is the training fee that all training Directors earn for their diligence and training efforts to bring you up to speed, help you with prospecting, marketing, closing sales, and a lot of other hangs on training. It is up to the individual Director's if they choose to do this one on one, or by group teleconference call. It is your business and you can design the training program to help your new associates earn that Director's Release ASAP.
Something isn't working in the mix and based on the report, I am speculating as to common problems. I have picked up a few Coastal orphans in the past year.

The Privacy of Style: Imagining Underwear
Last month the New York Knicks' Carmelo Anthony joined 50 Cent to launch the rapper's fashion line at Bloomingdale's in New York City. Observers attempting to fathom consumption are routinely befuddled by the apparently irrational expense consumers will devote to style, and 50 Cent's endorsement will leave many of those observers once more scratching their heads. The rapper has been joined by Anthony and Timbaland as investors in Frigo underwear, taking aim at the "premium" men's underwear market with a line that includes a $100 pair with a patented "interior pouch". A surprising universe of companies appeal to this upscale men's drawers market ranging from the likes of Versace (a pair of briefs at $175) and Derek Rose to upstarts like the Swedish firm Tani or Mark Mocy (which promises to protect you from an astounding range of personal offenses). The pricey celebrity-endorsed undies illuminate the confluence of consumer desire, branding, and individual material imagination in what might seem to be the most prosaic of all things.
On the one hand, Frigo and a host of firms hawking expensive underwear may confirm the irrationality of brand consumption. From a purely economic perspective, post-war parents began buying their sons bags of functionally adequate tighty whiteys that still can be found for $10 at every department store. Not surprisingly, Carmelo Anthony rails on the classic bags of cotton underwear, intoning that "They're just not comfortable." A 2016 survey seems to confirm Anthony's sentiments, since just 6% of men wear conventional white briefs. The consumer driven purely by function might well be unconvinced that they require Frigo's "laser cut vents … for aeriation" or the space-age fabrics in designer drawers. Likewise, the concrete effect of endorsements and advertisements is not especially clear. Fashion ads have long celebrated photo-shopped genetic anomalies, and it may be strangely appealing to think that the likes of David Beckham wear your undies brand or they come with the endorsement of Timbaland. Nevertheless, no consumer can be so deluded that they expect a pair of drawers will transform them into Cristiano Ronaldo, Rafael Nadal, or the French Olympic swim team.
On the other hand, though, perhaps the most interesting distinction of underwear branding is that (with the exception of strategically exposed waistbands) underwear do not publicly display the brand. Much of the theorizing about branding revolves around brands' public display of style, affluence, and taste, but premium men's underwear underscore that brands do not necessarily display taste; instead, they appeal to a consumer's imagination of their stylishness, comfort, extravagance, and gratification. Even when they are displayed to our most intimate partners, underwear may be more about imagining how we feel and look than how we are actually seen. Our drawers may not confirm our affluence or style as much as they capture a self-absorbed and even unarticulated dimension of material desire.
Critics often fail to appreciate the depth of material imagination, instead caught up in their own bemusement over consumers' economic irrationality or suggesting that foolish shoppers are succumbing to transparent advertising appeals. For instance, when Frigos first broke the $100 barrier four years ago the Huffington Post's women's editor Emma Gray lampooned the ludicrously priced underwear. Gray sounded an age-old argument that function should rationally trump price and style, suggesting that the flood of pricy men's drawers demonstrates "that lots of things—specifically unmentionables—can be manufactured in such a way that you can convince consumers to pay way more for them than they're worth."
The lingerie market has long appealed to and exploited women's imaginations of body and beauty, and the lingerie industry is enormously profitable, with $13 billion in annual revenue in the United States and about $32 billion worldwide. Frigo hopes to spark men's imagination about their skivvies, but this year a study found that the average man in the UK owns just 13 pairs of underwear; he buys a new pair just once every six months; the typical pair remains in use for four years (some wearing a single pair for a week at a time); and he manages an average yearly underwear budget of £20.75 (at the moment just more than $27). In contrast, a 2012 study concluded that the typical British woman owns 34 pairs of panties, and on average 14 pairs are reserved for "special occasions." This year the Queen's lingerie supplier Rigby & Peller found that alongside 42 pairs of knickers the average woman owns just two bras (and 5% of women wear them over 20 years). The average pair of men's underwear at the massive online skivvies site Fresh pair today costs $28, but Rigby & Peller's women's briefs start at £30, and made-to-fit bras go for £300 or more. A 2015 study argued that over the average woman's lifetime another $2280 of new underwear are purchased simply to replace underwear stained during menstruation.
Efforts to explain nearly any material consumption routinely meet with some inexplicable dimensions of experience, desire, and imagination that fall outside the order of functional need, economic rationality, or ideology. For instance, in a 2012 Bjorn Borg survey (PDF) 59% of respondents indicated they buy underwear on sheer impulse (72% of French consumers professed no brand devotion whatsoever, while 26% of Americans favor a particular brand). Some things like undies are especially reliant on sparking individual imagination since their appeals do not rely on the narrowly visual dimensions of material culture. Underwear may reside on the boundaries of articulation—that is, most of us do not commonly share with others our day's choice of drawers—but they conversely are an utterly bodily concrete experience, cradling us intimately even if that experience passes largely without conversation. The appeals made by 50 Cent or the allure of very expensive and technically sophisticated underwear certainly shape many peoples' consumer experiences, but they likely do not explain much of our materiality. Underwear may heighten the utterly imaginative dimensions of style, comfort, and affluence found in most if not all material culture, but they underscore that much of consumption defies straightforward rational explanation.
The Security of Light: Streetlights and Criminal Darkness
This month a new streetlight was installed in Indianapolis, Indiana to surprising fanfare. Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett presided over a ceremony on Nowland Avenue, celebrating the city's first new streetlight since 1981 and proclaiming that it and another 100 new lights would bring "light to neighborhoods that have been dark for far too long." Thirty-five years ago Mayor William Hudnut announced a moratorium on new streetlights that was continued by the three subsequent Mayors. Hudnut's policy was fundamentally a cost-cutting move to decrease the city's electricity expenses and direct the city's public works spending toward roads, sidewalks, and concrete infrastructure.
Streetlights were once prosaic objects we never contemplated, but now they have secured the status of things; that is, they have entered our consciousness because they are part of an urban fabric perceived to be malfunctioning. Most of the civic material landscape is utterly outside our consciousness until it fails in literal terms: for instance, a street is not part of our reflection until a pothole mars our motion, or only the absence of a maintained sidewalk compels us to articulate our pedestrian experience. Yet street lights and luminosity itself address a host of breakdowns in cities like Indianapolis that reach well beyond the functional purpose of lighting streets for foot and auto traffic. Light and visibility are viewed and experienced in distinctive social ways across the city: street lights are cast by various observers as symbols of government's public service obligations, ideological mechanisms of urban surveillance, instruments of persistent racism and class prejudice, nocturnal pollution, and confirmation of apparently rampant criminality.

Boredom in the Ruins of the Mall
A host of observers repeatedly prophesy the death of the traditional shopping mall, disparaging the regional mall as an archaic spatial, material, and social experience. Somewhat paradoxically, many artists, scholars, and explorers pick over the literal ruins of dead malls in an exercise that in various hands reflectively dissects materiality, transparently bemoans lost youth, or launches another attack on mass consumption. Americans seem quite fascinated by the ruination of the enclosed regional shopping mall, fixated on its hulking material remnants, anxiously monitoring its demise in surviving malls, and acknowledging our boredom with much of the remaining shopping mall landscape.
Those people forecasting the mall's demise may have felt their pessimism confirmed by last week's news that the ubiquitous mall chain Claire's is fighting off bankruptcy (a decline marketers have been watching for over a year). Claire's decline may indeed confirm malls' fundamental design liabilities and reflect broad economic and demographic shifts, but our fascination with the declining mall almost certainly risks pronouncing their death sentence too soon. While shifts in consumption and settlement patterns have transformed the contemporary shopping landscape for malls, our sheer boredom with the homogeneity and predictability of malls may be more dangerous to their survival than factors such as our attraction to online shopping or the decline of department stores.

Abhorrent Bodies: Burying Evil
The Wal-Hamdu-Lillah Cemetery hails itself as California's first Islamic cemetery, a 20-acre mortuary and burial ground established in 1998. The cemetery adheres to Sharia burial rites, which include the ritual washing of the corpse, shrouding of the body, and burial without a casket, usually with little or no burial markers. In January it was confirmed that the more than 1000 people buried in Wal-Hamdu-Lillah include Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik, fundamentalist extremists who killed 14 people in a December 2015 attack in San Bernadino. The two were themselves killed hours after their attack, and it apparently took a week to find an Islamic cemetery that would accept their remains. Local observers soon suspected that the killers were interred in the cemetery in Rosamond, and the Mayor of neighboring Lancaster theatrically directed his City Attorney to prepare legislation that would outlaw the local burial of participants in terrorist acts. The anxiety sparked by the couple's burial reflects their status among the most repugnant of the dead, people so evil that their physical remains threaten our common values after their death. Such figures' literal corporeal remains hold a persistent grip on our collective anxiety, their memories firmly planted in heritage discourses even as we attempt to efface their human remains from the landscape.

African-American Heritage in the Post-Renewal City
In the wake of World War II planners, developers, and elected officials spearheaded urban renewal projects that transformed Indianapolis, Indiana's material landscape and depopulated its central core. Yet over the last 20 years the descendants of those ideologues have been gradually repopulating the Indiana capital city's core and constructing a historicized landscape on the ruins of the post-renewal city. A relatively similar story could be told in nearly all of postwar America, where urban renewal, the "war on poverty," and a host of local schemes displaced legions of poor and working-class people. Some creatively re-purposed structures have survived urban renewal in Indianapolis, but much of the near-Westside's historical landscape has been erased, remains under fire, or only survives in radically new forms. It may be pragmatic (or unavoidable) to accept such a transformation of the historical landscape, but urban renewal's material effacement of the African-American near-Westside—and the way it is now reconstructed or evoked on the contemporary landscape–inevitably will transform how that heritage is experienced.
The most recent target in Indianapolis is Bethel African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church, which has sat on West Vermont Street since the congregation purchased the lot in 1869. The congregation's origins in Indianapolis reach to 1836, and the church members were vocal abolition supporters and orchestrated movement through Indianapolis on the Underground Railroad. Bethel was among the African-American city's most prominent institutions, hosting myriad people for worship, leisure, education, and activism alike: in 1870, residents gathered in the church to celebrate the passing of the 15th Amendment (securing African-American voting rights); in 1904 the first meeting of Indiana's Federation of Colored Women's Clubs was held at Bethel; in 1926 African Americans gathered at Bethel to protest a wave of segregation laws reaching from racist neighborhood covenants to high school segregation; and neighborhood residents gathered at Bethel throughout the civil rights movement.

Race and the River: Swimming, Sewers, and Segregation
Last week Indianapolis' tourism agency Visit Indy proposed building a beach along the White River, the waterway that meanders through the heart of Indiana's capital city. The idea modeled on temporary beaches in Paris (where swimming is not allowed in the Seine) was greeted with some skepticism: today, much of the river has a well-deserved reputation for pollution reaching back over the last century. The river and its urban tributaries have long been fouled by combined sewer overflows, industrial discharges, and upriver farm wastes, and many stretches of the river are inaccessible and unappealing. The Indianapolis press seem unable to imagine the White River as a tourist spot with something akin to a beach, but the river has a rich history of waterfront leisure that has included beaches from Ravenswood and Broad Ripple south to the edges of present-day downtown. Some of the most polluted stretches of the White River also wind through predominately African-American neighborhoods and attest to how segregation shaped African Americans' experience of the river.
In 1916 the Indianapolis News delivered an alarming report that the White River from Washington Street south "is devoid of natural fish life and birds." Below the West Washington Street bridge the State Board of Health's John C. Diggs pronounced the river "a malodorous, septic stream, bearing on its surface floating matter of sewage origin," concluding that the river "was of the same character as ordinary household sewage." Two years before he told the American Chemical Society conference that "White River is a comparatively small stream, yet it is used as a source of public water supply and sewage disposal for over 300,000 people." The 1916 study had already recognized that certain stretches of the river were more polluted than others. At Broad Ripple "the river is free from floating matter or objectionable odor"; at Crow's Nest just south of Broad Ripple "water is clear, free from floating matter"; and at Emrichsville Bridge (just south of the present-day 16th Street Bridge) the "water is clean but has a slightly weedy odor." However, the African-American near Westside lay directly north of the industrial pollution wreaked by companies like the Kingan and Company meat packing plant, near which "the surface is a black scum" and "bubbles of gas rise to the surface." Their neighbors Van Camps were responsible for "pieces of tomatoes…on the surface of the water." Read the rest of this entry
The Archaeology of Nothing: Grand Challenges and Everyday Life
In 2014 a panel of 25 senior scholars developed an ambitious array of "grand challenges" for archaeology (PDF), the "most important scientific challenges" that the discipline could or should address. Their report published in American Antiquity includes a host of fascinating if astoundingly broad subjects that confidently aspire to structure how archaeologists frame a grand narrative for the archaeological past.
This month archaeology bloggers are examining the "grand challenges" in their own corners of the discipline, many of which are not addressed by the American Antiquity paper (see the hashtag #blogarch). Inevitably such an ambitious project cannot hope to address all the questions that matter to various scholars and public constituencies, so bloggers are suggesting some questions that remain outside the panel's grand challenges.
Much of the NSF project was greeted by a chorus complaining that the respondents to the paper's "crowd-sourced" online surveys was demographically problematic: 79% of the respondents were from the United States; two-thirds were age 50 or older; and 62% of the respondents were male. Observers dissatisfied with the grand challenges in the American Antiquity paper argued that the questions reflected the survey respondents and scholars who authored the final "big picture" research questions (compare Diggin' It and SEAC Underground).

Repressing Repugnant Heritage: Place, Race, and Memory in Shockoe Bottom
Richmond, Virginia's Shockoe Bottom is on first glance a prosaic if not unappealing void. The checkerboard of parking lots and deteriorating buildings became home to a farmer's market along Shockoe Creek in the 18th century: the core of Richmond's earliest urban plan, Shockoe Bottom's 17th Street marketplace was ringed by food wholesalers, Tobacco Row warehouses, restaurants, manufacturing, Main Street Station, and residences, including the city's oldest surviving structure, the circa 1740 Old Stone House now home to the Edgar Allen Poe Museum. But much of the farmer's market business has declined and food wholesaling transformed since World War II; in 1958 the Richmond-Petersburg Turnpike (Interstate 95) sliced through the middle of Shockoe Bottom; the cigarette companies abandoned Tobacco Row in the 1970s; and most trains stopped running in 1975.

Silence and Civility at the Talking Wall: Race and Public Art
This week artist Bernard Williams' Talking Wall was installed on Indianapolis' Cultural Trail. Williams' work sits along Blackford Street on the IUPUI campus, sandwiched between two parking decks in the midst of what was once an African-American neighborhood. Talking Wall collects a series of symbols representing that African-American heritage, emerging after a long discussion over African-American public art stewarded by the Central Indiana Community Foundation (CICF), Arts Council of Indianapolis (ACI), and the Greater Indianapolis Progress Committee (GIPC). On an otherwise non-descript stretch of the trail the work aspires to illuminate African-American heritage and evoke a historical landscape lost to most people's memory. For a piece that ambitiously celebrates its aspiration to promote conversation, though, it remains somewhat unclear exactly what sort of discussions a phalanx of planners hope to secure from Talking Wall. Talking Wall emerged from a tortured ethnographic failure of planners to fathom African Americans' investment in public artistic representations of African America. That failure and the subsequent effort to cast the subsequent Talking Wall community art project as reconciliation and civil discussion may frame a more interesting insight into privilege and the color line than any artwork.

Manufacturing Heritage: History-Making at Trump National
Last week a stirring Civil War memorial in Sterling, Virginia was ridiculed for its commemoration of a Potomac River engagement known as "the river of blood." The gorgeous riverside site on the Trump National Golf Club was dramatically remodeled after Donald Trump purchased the former Lowes Island Club in 2009. Part of that remodeling included the placement of a war memorial between the 14th and 15th holes commemorating a slaughter of "many great Americans, both of the North and South" whose blood reputedly turned the Potomac crimson. The plaque at the bottom of a flagpole exclaims "It is my great honor to have preserved this important section of the Potomac River!–Donald John Trump."
Northern Virginia has a rich landscape of Civil War sites, and the memorial to Civil War dead is perhaps earnest, but there is no evidence that such a battle occurred along the shores of the present-day Trump course. When Trump was challenged this month over the details of this otherwise undocumented battle, he replied with characteristic arrogance that the location "was a prime site for river crossings. So, if people are crossing the river, and you happen to be in a civil war, I would say that people were shot—a lot of them." When pressed that he had manufactured a historical event, Trump dismissed demands for scholarly verification: "Write your story the way you want to write it. You don't have to talk to anybody. It doesn't make any difference. But many people were shot. It makes sense." Faced with scholars' challenges, Trump protested ""How would they know that? Were they there?"

NMCI wastes 22,500 man-hours on Dell battery recall; The enemy within; BlackBerry bandits redux
NMCI wastes 22,500 man-hours on Dell battery recall
The way the Navy and Army handled the Dell laptop PC battery recall last week illustrates why it's a good idea to keep in-house managers in charge of crucial assets rather than outsourcing the responsibility.
The Navy Marine Corps Intranet program management folks deferred to their contractor, EDS, on how to handle the battery replacement. EDS told 45,000 NMCI users with bum Dell batteries to get in line on the Dell Web site to order their own batteries, which may take three weeks to arrive.
That misguided response hurts the Navy in two ways. First, it's a colossal waste of time. It took me 15 minutes to determine whether the battery in my Dell Latitude, which I have nicknamed Sparky, was on the recall list. If I had needed to order a new battery, it probably would have added another 15 minutes to the whole process.
Multiply that 30 minutes by 45,000 NMCI users and you get 22,500 man-hours. If you assume the hourly rate for those folks is a low $10 an hour, this do-it-yourself battery replacement stunt would cost the Navy $225,000. That's less than a rounding error at the Pentagon, but it's real money in the rest of the world.
By acting on EDS' advice, the Navy also lost the ability to deal with Dell as a big customer that could demand — and probably get — priority allocation of batteries for key users. Dell said little about prioritizing the distribution of batteries, but you can bet that big guns — say, for example, Microsoft chief executive officer Steve Ballmer — are not waiting three weeks for a new battery.
Kevin Carroll, the Army's program executive officer for enterprise information systems, knows he has folks facing real guns. He took an enterprise approach to the battery recall for 150,000 Dell laptop PC users and worked with the company to ensure that deployed troops were at the top of its priority list.
Carroll can take this approach because the Army has wisely kept desktop and laptop computer management and support in-house rather than pass them off to a contractor focused on the bottom line rather than the needs of soldiers.
As one Navy pal told me, the way the Navy mishandled the battery recall was "just another reason why NMCI is the contract everyone loves to hate."
The enemy within
Management of the Navy's communications security (Comsec), which includes controls on everything from radios with embedded cryptographic gear to safes that hold military codes, has tanked in the past three years, according to a recent message the Naval Network Warfare Command (Netwarcom) sent to all commands.
"The discipline and rigor of Comsec account management have atrophied, and the number of Comsec incidents/practices dangerous to security has increased," according to the message, which went on to state that 350 Comsec incidents occurred in 2003, 350 in 2004 and 493 in 2005. In the first quarter of 2006, Netwarcom recorded 109 Comsec incidents, of which only 33 were related to combat or aircraft losses.
The majority of the losses involved handheld radios or other portable devices, Netwarcom said. Poor shipping practices were the No. 1 cause of lost or missing Comsec material.
In the interest of full disclosure, I have to confess that I once lost a shackle sheet in Vietnam. The loss of the paper, which contained codes used to encrypt information for radio transmission, prompted my boss, Marine Sgt. Herbierto Gonzalez, to say that now all the militaries in all the nations of the free world would have to change their codes.
He then found a lot of sandbags for me that needed filling.
BlackBerry bandits redux
I've had many e-mail messages from Research in Motion BlackBerry users in response to an item in my last column in which I complained about BlackBerry use on airliners after flight attendants finish their admonishments against such use.
The gist of those messages is that BlackBerry users are not breaking any rules. They are working with the wireless mode turned off and are using the devices to compose messages they will send after the plane lands. That's not only law-abiding but also a good use of government gear and time, they say.
If that were true, how come as soon as the plane gets close to the ground and within range of those BlackBerry towers, all those devices start going off?
Army Col. Dennis Saltzman, inspector general for the 81st Regional Readiness Command in Birmingham, Ala., agrees with me that airborne BlackBerry bandits need to be dealt with, and he has a creative solution.
"I favor having the airline industry send a jamming or altering signal out…[to] push back [the BlackBerry signal] so that all the work that has just been typed into the BlackBerry will be altered or rendered unusable on the receiving end of the transmission," he wrote in an e-mail message.
Saltzman said that experience would teach BlackBerry bandits a good lesson about consequences in a "day and age [when] there are no consequences to actions."
"I learned very early to think about the consequences to my actions," he said. "It didn't take the Army schools to teach me to think about the second and third order of effects."

Dallas Cowboys news, rumors and injuries
Cowboys | Gavin Escobar on the bubble
Tue, 30 Aug 2016 22:10:57 -0700
Dallas Cowboys TE Gavin Escobar is not considered a lock to make the 53-man roster, according to ESPN's Todd Archer.
Fantasy Tip: Escobar, a former second-round pick, has never delivered on his draft position, and it looks as though he may be edged out for a roster spot. Odds are someone would take a look at him given his physical credentials (6-foot-6, 260 pounds), but he's of no interest for fantasy owners.

Cowboys | Teams interested in Darren McFadden
Tue, 30 Aug 2016 12:19:20 -0700
Dallas Cowboys RB Darren McFadden has drawn trade interest from multiple teams, but the Cowboys want to hold on to the running back.
Fantasy Tip: When healthy, McFadden will likely play second fiddle to Ezekiel Elliott in 2016. He was one of only seven running backs to run for at least 1,000 yards last season, but his injury history and status as a backup are too much to make him more than a deep flier.

Denver Broncos QB Mark Sanchez is not a trade option for the Dallas Cowboys if they have to accept his current contract. The Broncos have approached the Cowboys about a possible trade involving Sanchez.
Fantasy Tip: Sanchez could be more of an option for the Cowboys if he is released by the Broncos. Sanchez will be a backup no matter where he plays this season and will not be a fantasy option unless he starts.

Cowboys | Tony Romo to wear back brace
Sun, 28 Aug 2016 08:57:54 -0700
Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo (back) will be wearing a back brace during his recovery from the compression fracture in his vertebra. Head coach Jason Garrett is not giving a timetable for Romo's return.
Fantasy Tip: Romo is not expected to return to the lineup until at least midseason, so owners should monitor his progress over the next few weeks. Owners could consider selecting Romo in the late rounds of drafts and stashing him on their bench, but he probably will go undrafted in many leagues. Dak Prescott should be the starting quarterback for the Cowboys for the time being and can be a No. 2 quarterback in fantasy leagues.

Dallas Cowboys WR Dez Bryant (concussion) will be limited to individual drills during practice Sunday, Aug. 28, because he has not been fully cleared by the medical staff.
Fantasy Tip: Bryant has a few weeks to recover from the concussion, so he should have a decent chance to be ready for Week 1. Bryant's value will take a hit because of Tony Romo's injury but should still be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues as a No. 1 or No. 2 receiver.

Cowboys | Tony Romo likely out until midseason
Sat, 27 Aug 2016 14:40:41 -0700
Updating a previous story, Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo (back) is expected to miss six to 10 weeks with a compression fracture of his L1 vertebra in his back. Per sources, Romo is not expected to need surgery. Head coach Jason Garrett refused to rule him out for the team's season opener against the New York Giants on Sept. 11 and did not confirm whether or not this injury is related to the transverse process injury the oft-injured quarterback suffered in 2014.
Fantasy Tip: The Cowboys drafted Ezekiel Elliott with an eye on keeping Romo upright, and he'll be asked to carry even more of the offense on his shoulders now because Dallas will turn to fellow rookie Dak Prescott, who has been one of the most pleasant surprises of the preseason. Romo should go undrafted in virtually all leagues that don't have an IR spot, while Prescott can be drafted as a high-upside (but low-end) QB2. Elliott should be the offensive focus even more now than he was expected to be and is a high-end RB1.

Cowboys | Tony Romo may need epidural
Sat, 27 Aug 2016 12:13:25 -0700
Updating a previous report, Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo (back) will likely need an epidural in order to play this season. The broken bone in his back is an injury that may linger.
Fantasy Tip: Romo is easily in backup fantasy quarterback territory with the injury, and he may even be considered undraftable. Dak Prescott has looked like a natural in the preseason and will be thrown to the wolves immediately. He's not in QB1 territory, but he's not the worst backup and should be claimed off waivers this week, especially by those who drafted Romo.

Cowboys | Tony Romo has broken bone in back
Sat, 27 Aug 2016 11:49:15 -0700
Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo (back) suffered a fractured vertebra in his back against the Seattle Seahawks Thursday, Aug. 25. He is expected to miss six to 10 weeks.
Fantasy Tip: Here we go again. Romo is no stranger to back issues, and he couldn't make it out of the preseason before encountering another one. Dak Prescott will likely take over the reins at quarterback. He has impressed so far this season and seems capable of starting even as a rookie. He's not a starting caliber fantasy quarterback, but he can be worth a start in a good matchup and should be a cheaper option in daily contests.
