A chicken comb is the fleshy protuberance on top of the head of a chicken, it is of course larger on the cockerel than the hen chicken. There are several forms or shapes of combs including buttercup, cushion, pea, rose, single, strawberry and v-shaped.
Combs are often a distinguishing characteristic that helps identify various breeds and varieties of chickens. In some breeds such as Leghorns and Rhode Island Reds, there are both single comb and rose comb varieties. In addition, the colour of the combs vary from bright red to purple, again depending upon the breed.
The scientific classification of a chicken is Gallus domesticus, where the Latin word 'gallus', means comb. So what is the purpose of the chicken's comb? There appears to be two main reasons. The first is that the combs act as a cooling mechanism for the birds. Chickens cannot sweat to cool themselves, instead, birds are cooled by the blood flowing through the comb and the wattle, which are both externally situated. As the warm blood circulates through the comb, it is cooled and returns to the interior parts of the body, thereby acting as a cooling mechanism in hot weather. This obviously has an adverse effect in cold weather when it is necessary to take precautions to ensure that your chickens do not get frost bite in those areas.
The second reason is that the large combs on males attract females as chickens can detect colour and are very attracted to the colour red.
At one time, many of the commercial poultry farms routinely removed the combs from all birds at an early age to prevent injuries and subsequent infection later in life, which would reduce the commercial value of the bird. Thankfully this is rarely practiced now.
The comb also serves as an indicator of the bird's health. If it appears lighter or darker than usual or seems to be shrivelled or lopped, it is usually a sign of illness. Certainly it is a sign of whether a bird is in 'good condition' when observed at a show. The shape and colour of the comb carries a total of 5 points out of 100 in a judge's evaluation. In addition, a bright red comb on a developing young female (pullet) normally means that the bird is ready to begin her laying cycle.
Types of Chicken Combs
Single combs
The single comb is by far the most common of the comb types and the one that people think of when they think of a chicken's head. The single comb is a moderately thin, fleshy formation of smooth soft surface texture, firmly attached from the beak along the top of the skull with a strong base. The top portion shows five or six rather deep serrations or distinct points, the middle points being higher than the back or front, forming a semi-oval shape when viewed from the side. The comb is always upright and much larger and thicker in males than in females. It may be lopped or upright in the female. This depends on the breed. The comb is divided into three sections: the front, the middle and that extending past the rear base of the skull, the posterior or blade.
One of the major problems with single combs is that the points tend to freeze and fall off in extremely cold weather. This does not normally affect the health of the bird but does drastically reduce their value as an exhibition bird. Many exhibitors protect their birds by covering the comb with petroleum jelly during times of extreme cold. The petroleum jelly insulates the comb and prevents freezing/frostbite. This is also something that a lot of chicken keepers do as a matter of course to protect their birds in extreme weather even if they are not exhibitors
The males of some breeds of chickens such as the Old English, Modern and American Games, are required to be 'dubbed' in order to be shown. These are all single comb breeds. Dubbing consists of the removal of the head appendages such as comb, wattles, and ear lobes. This is similar to the docking of tails on certain breeds of dogs. This procedure is usually conducted using surgical shears and takes place when the males are six months of age or older. These appendages do not grow back so it is only necessary to perform the procedure once on each bird.
Rose combs
The rose comb is a solid, broad and nearly flat comb on top. It is a low, fleshly comb that concludes in a well-developed tapering spike at the back. It may turn upward as in Hamburg breeds, be nearly horizontal as in Rose Comb Leghorn breeds, or follow the contour of the head as in Wyandotte breeds. The top surface of the main part should be slightly convex and studded with small rounded protuberances. The general shape varies in the different breeds.
Strawberry combs
The Strawberry is a low comb that is set well-forward. The shape and surface resemble the outer part of half a strawberry with the large end nearest to the beak of the chicken.
Cushion combs
The cushion comb is a low, compact chicken comb of relatively small size, it should be quite smooth, possess no depressions or no spikes and not extend beyond the mid point of the skull.
Buttercup combs
The buttercup comb consists of a single blade arising at the juncture of the chicken's head and beak, rising up and slightly back to the cup shaped crown, set squarely on the centre of the skull. The rim of the cup should bear an evenly spaced circle of points and be closed at the back. Points emerging from the centre of the cup are considered to be a serious defect.
Pea comb
The pea comb is a medium length, low comb, the top of which is marked with three low lengthwise ridges, the centre one being slightly higher than the outer ones, the top of which are either undulated or marked with small rounded serrations. This is a chicken breed characteristic found in Ameraucanas, Brahmas, Buckeyes, Cornish, Cubalayas and Sumatras.
V Shaped comb
The v shaped comb is formed of two well defined, hornlike sections joined at their base, as in Houdans, Polish, Crevecoeurs, La Fleche and Sultans.
Thus a chicken's comb serves a myriad of purposes from an indicator of health and vitality to a cooling agent to an attraction to the opposite sex. Finally, it seems to add aesthetic value to the overall appearance of the chicken and a big, bright red comb signals that a bird is indeed the 'cock of the walk'.

Resident Evil 5 Demo Infects Xbox Live
Xbox 360 owners get an exclusive look at Chris Redfield's zombie safari, with a PS3 release planned for next week.
As was reported earlier this month, the long-awaited demo for Resident Evil 5 finally became available on the Xbox Live Marketplace this morning. The 472 MB demo -- exclusive to the Xbox 360 this week -- allows players to explore three full levels from the game, as well as showcasing the new-to-the-series splitscreen and online cooperative play.
PlayStation 3 owners shouldn't feel too left out, however. According to previous announcements, Capcom will be offering the RE5 demo on the PlayStation Store sometime next week -- most likely Thursday, February 5. Stay strong, Sony faithful.

oh and btwPosted: Feb 05, 2009 12:00AM PST by DeathtoSE
i finished the demo on PS3 without a scratch on me :D all you gota do is once the big gate is broken down by the Executioner run through turn left and climb up to the top top theres a water tower thingy there if it helps.. and you only gota cover 2 entrances.. stairs with your knife.. and climbers with one single handgun bullet... no need to bother with mr Exe.. allthough i will be killing him from up there when game releases lol if they dont change anything that is..
what you buy is your choicePosted: Feb 05, 2009 12:00AM PST by DeathtoSE
and i also agree with you on the controls not being able to do fk all while moving or running.. but the thing that gets me is the part where you say if you die you start from scratch.. you know this how exactly? did you play the game yet? as far as i know its not out yet... not even in japan so i'd wait for it b4 making my own conclusions.
John Davison hit the nail on the head...Posted: Feb 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by firstname.lastname@example.com
...on the Listen Up podcast from Friday. I have been eager to get my hands on RE5 since I first heard it was coming to 360. I've loved the past RE titles and especially enjoyed RE4 on GameCube.
It felt to me like the "survival" portion of the "survival/horror" moniker comes from trying to survive the dated controls. I'm uber disappointed. Maybe two/three years ago I'd been good with the game feeling like this but theres been too many good games over the years that play so much better then this does. My overall feeling from playing through the demo is frustration instead of fear.
I gave the demo another chance over the weekend and that experience pretty much cemented the fact I'm not snagging this title. I cancelled my pre-order this morning. It'll be a rent for me at best. I'm not kidding when I say John summed up my own personal feelings toward the game almost like I'd telepathically took over his body during the podcast!
I'm an admitted graphics whore so this just compounds my disappointment since the game looks REALLY good. Oh well.
RE 5Posted: Jan 30, 2009 12:00AM PST by The_Imp
This game is full of win. The controls are great and the action is superb ! For all the cry babies about the controls and gameplay it's not Capcom's fault you suck. Maybe you should stick to Pac-Man ! LRN2PLAY !!! Can't wait for release this is the best RE to date by far. For those looking for a trick to splitting ammo try equipping it b4 passing it over it transfers ammo in the amount of 30 rounds !
RAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!Posted: Jan 29, 2009 12:00AM PST by DOPEMAN209
Overall, an awesome demo that did exactly what a demo should - make me juiced for the final product. The only concern I had was the EXTREMELY slow aiming and even changing the aiming speed to FASTEST doesnt seem to help much, I hope that is an issue that is gonna get fixed in the final product. Awesome frantic, intense action-packed gameplay backed by some awesome graphics equals one of the best games in 2009, worthy to be a sequel to one of the best games of all time-RE4. Cant wait for the final game. P.S. The demo includes only 2 stages, not 3 and if the single-player didnt do it for you, try it online with friends.
RE5Posted: Jan 29, 2009 12:00AM PST by Entropy
I liked the demo. The controls make sense after a few playthroughs and the co-op made it more fun. My complaints so far: You can't split ammo, for the most part this isn't a problem except when it comes to the handgun ammo, thats when the fact that you have to give all or nothing can be a serious problem.
My hope is that I'm not stuck indoors during most of the night portion of the game like in RE4. I can think of nothing scarier than being stuck outdoors where things can attack you from all sides and all you've got to hold back the darkness is a pair of flashlights.
ActuallyPosted: Jan 28, 2009 12:00AM PST by Tiger_8596
i loved it yeah the controls took a bit to get used to but, hey it's resident evil i would be shocked if it was easy to move around, oh and everyone complianing about the aiming speed check you options in the in-game pause screen simple fix.
tsk,tsk, tsk.......Posted: Jan 28, 2009 12:00AM PST by cullenvampir
Tht ws horrible. i tried it this morning and i didnt like it tht much. the grafics werent even tht good! sure, it was just a demo, but i really didnt like it. they really should make it better.
@ NightAntilliPosted: Jan 28, 2009 12:00AM PST by Senninha
You're right, I'm aware that for some time now Gold users get to download new demos first, but that wasn't the case when the Xbox 360 first came out. I know this for a fact as I was one of those early adopters that bought the console shortly after launch. MS started making some demos available to Gold users just last year in an attempt to increse their Gold subscribers user base. But I'm not complaining man, I just don't think that with so people people hurting with the economy, me being one of therm after being laid off in November, MS should be charging to download new demos. And, again, you're right, I'll just wait to download it from PSN and if I like it I'll buy it for my PS3 ... when I get a job!
......Posted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by Behrd
I didn't think the controlls were that bad. I just thought the character's aiming was damn slow. I died when I was playing by myself, but when I had a friend play with me I got past it easier. It was actually crazy on the Shanty level when the chainsaw guy was running after you. I just hope they fix the aiming before they release the game.
@ SenninhaPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by NightAntilli
Stop complaining about XBL. It has always been this way. When a new demo comes out, the Gold members can download it immediately, and the silver members can download it a week after. They did this on purpose, because if everyone can download the demo on the first days, the servers will probably get overloaded and no one will be able to download anything. So just wait a week and you can download it for the X360.
As for the demo, i thought it was pretty cool but the controls are just broken imo.. Don't get me wrong, movement is fine, aiming and shooting is intuitive, but the things that bother me are:
You can't reload and move at the same time
You can't hold your knife and move at the same time
You can't shoot and move at the same time.
It doesn't have to be running, just a simple walk would do it while doing any of those things. I just don't like that. And if you die, you need to start from scratch. No thanks. I'm not gonna buy this, because it's more frustrating than fun. I'll get F.E.A.R. 2 instead. Try it.
Wow - Lol...Posted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by TreyIM2
This board really lit up about the controls and the toughness of this demo. I wonder if I will like it because the controls have always been a sore spot for me with the RE series but, none the less, I've beat every one on the consoles, including Code Veronica...but not RE4, which I bought in "Greatest Hits" form, and barely had even got started in the game. The reason why? Uhh, I dunno, actually - lol. I may go back and play it after I get my shot at the RE5 demo, next week....maybe...
Resident FunPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by straiven
I had a blast playing the demo. Gameplay seems similiar to RE 4 but thats not really a terrible thing. The different control schemes should help everyone find one they can play with. I was a little skeptical about playing online with someone else but after playing with my brother and saying stuff like " Handle those 5 coming from behind us and I'll take care of the ones running past the explosive barrel! " I'm sold on the idea. This is going to be fun.
Best Demo EverPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by Aluccard
I'm a huge Re4 fan and I admit that when I first played the demo for Re5 I was having a bit of trouble with the controls. I think that mainly stems from the first scenario being a terrible one to start with and the fact that I play way too much Gears of War and that has affected my memory on how Re4 controlled. But after playing both scenerios a couple times everything was completely second nature. My friend and I played both co-op scenerios several times and were having a blast messing with everyone. I'm sure the actual game will start off a bit slower and give you time to get used to the controls. I don't think this demo is really the best way to get people familiar with the game.
I thought it was greatPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
It controls just as I'd expect RE to control. You're not supposed to be an acrobatic ninja or anything; it's made that way to build tension. I think the collision detection and animations could use a little work, and the blood reminds me of Uncharted (which reminded me of Area 51 in the arcade). Other than that, it's mostly what I was hoping it was. It's likely to be fixed up by March (and hopefully with exploding heads).
RE5 vs Dead SpacePosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by Celapaleis
Here it is people, point blank: Dead Space blows hard ASS--Resident Evil is the shit. The demo is awesome! The controls are very manageable, all you have to do is increase the AIM SPEED: to FASTEST and it should work out great.
@ apoc_regPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by Senninha
So a generic shooter, huh?! Capcom should've implemented controls similar to those in Gears of War or Uncharted. It would've made for a far more interesting and and fun game and it would've required more strategy, instead of running to a corner and shooting off "zombies" from there.
XBL SUCKS!!!Posted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by Senninha
No RE4 demo for Silver XBL users sucks!!! It appears MS is finding more ways to push gamers to pay for their Gold service. It used to be that Gold was primarily for online play, but it appears that its now also a requirement to download the latest demos. It's all about bragging rights! What's the point of having exclusitivy on the RE4 demo if less than half of your installed user base will be able to download it?! PSN: Not having to pay for online play and for demos seems like a better to me!
Beautiful, but...Posted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by VemberJudgement
I hope Capcom fixesup thecontriols, they are startingtocome offlast-gen tome. I'll still play and love this game, but those god-awful controls need to go.
Maybe they should rip off Dead Space's control style, since that gameripped them off...
Will be greatPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by apoc_reg
Capcom shouldnt have made the first segment a long fight as it didnt give people a chance to get used to the RE controls again. If you play the 2nd level then the 1st its a lot better as youve got used to it. I like control config 2 the best as its like the RE4 one but with trigger shooting. I dont want ot move and shoot in an RE game it would then become a generic shooter... its not about that.
Its about exploration, atmosphere and inventory management all of which you cant tell from a demo.
Im keeping the faith.
One note though the 360 version needs Vsync sooo bad, more tearing than i've ever seen in a game!
Its not Halo its RE5...Posted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by b_ez_fallback
So stop complaining about the controls, some of you sound like you expect like these halo / cod 4 type controls.
Your showing your game experience (and lack of playing previous Resident Evil Titles) with all these complaints about the controls. If you've played RE games before you would know that the game's controls were ALWAYS HORRIBLE & AKWARD.....but you got through it, an enjoyed playing the game, well most people did...
Your not going to be using a dumb as rocks A.I. when the game comes out, you'll be teamed up with a friend on line. God you people are -never- happy
Tough CrowdPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by SaviorMachine
You know, I bet that PS3 owners will wind up liking this game a lot more than 360 owners; they're not so firmly rooted in the One True Control Scheme that graces all the recent FPS games in recent memory. I know the RE scheme, even with this iteration's minor twists, but after playing so much CoD4 and World at War, and so much of other great Western FPS games, the controls in RE5 feel horribly limiting and awkward. I found myself constantly trying to think of what weird button combination I have to use if I want to slash my knife or shoot a guy or kick him. That's kind of bad.
I loved RE4 and it was one of the last generation's highlights; but this time I'm just spoiled by all the shooters I've played that have elegant, intuitive controls... which this game ain't got. Worst of all, I downloaded and played the F.E.A.R. 2 demo right before the RE5 demo, and let me tell you, I was stunned; at this time I'm far more excited about F.E.A.R. 2 than RE5. Seriously, if you haven't already, download the F.E.A.R. 2 demo, and then honestly compare and contrast.
DEAD SPACEPosted: Jan 27, 2009 12:00AM PST by HelloDentist
Fuck you, Resident Evil, you're dead to me. The controls are awful. When I hold the L trigger it feels like the left stick is broken because Chris Redfield doesn't move. I'm done with this series. Can't wait for Dead Space two, or even to just play through it again because it felt like a complete story, with the Anime and all.
About the difficultyPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by born.prodigy
The game itself isn't very hard at all. It's the interface that makes it difficult. You fight the controls just as much as the zombies.
RE5 DemoPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by XtremeGmr4life
I thought the demo was great. Resident Evil (one of my fav video game series) has come a real long way. I honestly must say the game reminded me a lot of RE4 but I loved RE4 so thats a plus for me. The inventory system could use a little work though. I didn't mess with it to much I got through the whole first stage in demo only using one herb. So those saying its to hard need to get a little more practice in or go play RE4 you will be in for a treat. The demo has got me even more excited for the game. If you loved RE4 you are going to love this. I didn't like something though, while I was watching the preview why game was downloading. At the end of the preview it showed a grave and it said "In memory of Jill Valentine". =-(

OK....................SERIOUSLY!!!!!Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by dancam
ok seriously....RE 4 was friggin great. It is without doubt my favorite game on the last gen. consoles. And still top 5 even for this gen. This demo is not. You cant argue that the inventory system is nothing less than unintuitive!!!! Its just retarded. Some off the timed button presses didnt even register when I pressed the damn button. Capcom obviously feels like they are behind in the coop genre. They put all this effort into a lame coop with substandard results. She got in my way all the damn time, i thought I was doing something wrong. There were times when I couldnt even move cause she wouldnt get the hell outta my way. You know they know how to make a game without your counterrpart getting in the way. Ashley NEVER got in the way or inhibited gameplay in any way. I expected this to be perfect. I thought FEAR 2 was gonna blow. I was wrong, and now Im buying FEAR 2. RE5 can wait until platinum.
RE5 will not appeal to non-hardcorePosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by polomaster
I played through RE4 and loved it. But I still thought this demo was hard. If Capcom wants the non-hardcore to pick it up they need to ease up on the difficulty.
Just because some of us don't like the game doesn't mean we suck.Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jason_Murk
I beat both levels with no problem without dying once. I still find the gameplay unappealing.
Just ask yourself... if RE5 wasn't called "Resident Evil 5" and instead it was called some generic shit like "Zombie Killer X" or "Dark Sector 2," would you really love it as much? I think the title "Resident Evil" just sparks nostalgia in some folks, and those people, usually fanboys, are gonna love it no matter what.
As for me, I pledge allegiance to no gaming system and no game franchises. If a game sucks, I'm going to call it like I see it. RE5's graphics are great, but the framerate gets pretty bad while turning and the controls are appaling. The demo wasn't absolute garbage, but it surely wasn't good enough to warrant a $60 purchase either.
I like itPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by StereoKill
I loved RE4 and I'm sure I'll love this one too. I do agree with people though, that it's fuckin hard!
GOTY so far....Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by Damiannnn4
All I have to say about this is WOW!!!! This game is so amazing. Sure it is hard at the beginning but play it a couple of times and you'll get use to it. I really can't wait for this game to come out. A definite must buy to add to the series! For all of you saying it sucks go suck a penis because that is all your good at obviously!!
Flame on!Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by blackrevenger
Maybe you guys who dont like the demo...well maybe you suck at it. Dont blame the game for your shortcomings as a player. Every game has its rules adjust to them,if you can.
@ labronxPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by blackrevenger
It was dope, I like the whole ammo sharing/Inventory system. most of the time we were together but in the shanty town section there was a part where we were seperated briefly and i had to cover my partner. Im sure there will be more things like that as the game goes on. Im just glad its co-op, hell i feel they should re do resident evil zero with a co-op engine. I dont know if i would have liked it as much if i played it with AI but i usually avoid playing with the AI on most games I can play with a friend. Hell i got a stack of RPGs for that. Im just a little sad so many of the people on this thread dislike the game. Remember folks it is a demo and if you didnt like the control scheme try one of the others. Moving and shooting wasn't a big deal for me I dont want all games to play alike. Maybe im a fanboy but i thought the demo was perfect.
terribly ho-humPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by AngelSynth
decent at best. Had to stop playing after an hour of fumbling through the mundane inventory, and clunky controls
gameplay is essentially Resident Evil 4 with some new wallpaper and a dumb-as-rocks AI buddy
Thanks for the demo. Now I know not to buy it.Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jason_Murk
The graphics are top notch. I'd rank the visuals right up there with Gears 2 and MGS4.
But the controls... oh boy. Clunky and frustrating. I played through the entire demo, and about halfway through the second stage I realized that I just wasn't having fun, all due to a poor & outdated control scheme. It's really not cool when the user interface is an even greater enemy than the zombies you're supposed to be fighting.
I'm passing on this one. Left 4 Dead now owns the zombie apocolypse crown in my book. I think I'm gonna use the money I had set aside for RE5 on Killzone 2. My PS3 has been starving for new games anyway.
Mixed feelingsPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by born.prodigy
First, let me say RE4 is one of my all-time favs. But this whole co-op thing can and will annoy you. I've played each part of the demo now about 3 times, and every time it was my partner that died, not me. Also, your constantly being forced to stop while being chased in order to give or receive ammo or items to or from your partner. This can became extremely annoying. The game basically boils down to running away and putting separation between you and your enemy and letting off a few shots. Rince and repeat. This wouldn't be so bad if you were alone, but your always forced to babysit your partner. I played this both solo and co-op. Even with a human partner it's extremely difficult to manage ammo and recovery items because you have to stop while being chased by a horde of enemies. I'm still excited for the game but this whole co-op thing will probably piss me off pretty frequently.
Damn..Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by suspecto
sh!t is tough as nails... your completely surronded by hordes of infected mofo's.. luckly your partners AI can help you recover 95% of the time... you not being able to move while shooting is unfortunate but the game looks awsome.. smart of capcom shipping out the demo as early as they did.. cause your gonna need alot of practice to complete the actual game.. bring it!
hard!!!Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by murderface
Fuck, this game is fucking hard! No moving, no dodging, switching weapons while getting punched in the face. It's great! You can't just jump-roll out of the way like a gears retard. That axe guy is a dick, though...
Thanx to everyone who responded....Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by labaronx
I cant wait to try the demo on PSN next week.
Were there any noticible problems with coop. Not enough, weapons, ammo. Were the two of you always bound to the same area or could you venture off seperatly for a moment?
sunny or noPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by blackrevenger
Hordes of people that want to kill me is a pants wetting thing for me personally so i was freaking out while it played. I haven't used the AI yet cause my friend was over and we played together. I love this came. CAPCOM ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks like the gonna get me for CEs two months in a row. Time to start asking Mom for money.
RE 5 ReactionPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by solidfenix
My only problem is that I play Gears 2 so much, that I'm use to that style of play. The whole not moving while shooting is a little bothersome. If the enemies just straight out rushed me giving me no time to react, I'd be dust. It would of been nice to be able hide behind cover and pop out and shoot. But its not really a big deal. I played RE4 and Dead Space and got use to the that syle once and can do it again. The Coop A.I. seemed decent. It always seemed she was up my ass through. I wish she'd go off and do her own thing sometimes. Sorta like Gears A.I. characters do,....but way smarter. The game looks really nice and I think its gonna be awesome action game....I say action because its not scary at all. I mean its bright and sunny and the enemies are not all that terrifying. So I dont see the Horror yet. Maybe later on in the game. I'm still buying it though.
I really like RE4....Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by Captain_Trip's_Back!
But after Gears, and more notably, DEAD SPACE, it just doesn't have the same shine. All in all, I lthought it was okay.. I'm still going to buy it, but exitement for this seriously dropped.

RE4 is one of my favorite game of all time. I've played the demo for RE5 for almost an hour. There are 2 levels, I can't get by either one of them. It's very hectic and awesome. Lots of barricading doors, diving through windows, and jabbing my partner with adrenaline. It's great. Both the boss dudes seem to be invincible, or maybe you just need to survive for a certain amount of time, or I suck. I shot a guy's head off and a winged monster flew out of his body! Awesome demo. Time to preorder.
night-hawk - Clunky controls, eh?Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by TreyIM2
THAT'S what I've been fearing based on the vids I've seen of the game. RE has ALWAYS had tank like movement and what's his head defended it, years and years ago saying that the tank like movement is purposely there to help provide the fear factor, since u can't just move like a cheetah when u need. I could see that argument but I can also see the argument where Capcom just doesn't want to get with the times, especially now, with next gen hardware. If the Tomb Raider series can change Lara's tankness back on the PS2, I see NO reason why they can't improve upon the character movement in RE, this gen.
Anyways, I will have to wait til next week for PSN to update the store. I'll just play the KZ2 demo til then, that same day. Yezzir!
This is oldPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by theicon1.1up.com

Best demo ever.
Don't get your panties in a bunchPosted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by K1LLSWITCH
For those out there who think the demo sucks know this, it's only a demo. Don't get your panties in a bunch over something that is meant to be a taste test for whats to come, expecting something gloriously epic. Things can change from now till the official release of the game.
GODDAMN.....Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by Damiannnn4
That is so awesome I'm downloading this shit TONIGHT!!!
Wowzers.Posted: Jan 26, 2009 12:00AM PST by BiffNizzle

""Not everything can fly. We will not install a swimming pool or a fireplace. That is not possible.""
Yacht owners take flight
Business Jet Traveler » February 2008
Friday, February 1, 2008 - 4:00am
Last fall at the prestigious Monaco Yacht Show, Eurocopter was in attendance-not to buy a yacht, but to sell a helicopter, or two or three, in a market in which helicopters are much in demand. In fact, it is rare these days to see any yacht longer than about 120 feet come off the design board without a helicopter flight deck. On larger vessels that must be anchored out rather than tied up dockside, the on-board helicopter is more than a luxury. For ship-to-shore transportation when the water is rough, and for flights to and from the nearest airport, mega-yacht owners consider it a necessity.

Moffitt Cancer Center, Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, and Florida Hospital are collaborating to create a Personalized Medicine Partnership of Florida (PMP Florida). The aim is to accelerate discovery and development of new treatments in the areas of cancer and metabolic diseases.
The partnership will leverage Florida Hospital's large patient population and clinical research expertise, Sanford-Burnham's research expertise and technology platforms, and Moffitt's biospecimen bank, data warehouse, and personalized medicine capabilities. One of the objectives of the partnership is to attract industry clients to utilize this resource.
PMP Florida will look to create alliances among Florida-based centers of excellence in medical research and clinical care. Together, the organizations will develop and utilize new molecular and genomic technologies to discover, translate, and personalize interventions for preventing and treating debilitating diseases.
It will try to mimick Moffitt's Total Cancer Care™ to develop similar research and clinical protocols in other disease areas including metabolic diseases. Total Cancer Care is a treatment path that begins by mapping the more than 30,000 genes that make up a tumor to find its own unique genetic fingerprint.

[QUOTE=Paleobird;1007916]The LC macros just make it easier to live on less calories while not feeling white knuckle hunger. You still have to control your intake. I gained weight initially on low carb too. I figured out there was a totally simple explanation. I was eating too much food.[/QUOTE]
I haven't seen your threads on calories, but I agree, and sometimes I think I was too low for too long. It was very easy to keep calories in check and it was easy to be under 1200 so I had to try to start watching that. I track everything & in no way taking in too much food. And it was very easy to fast for 18, 24, even some 48 also, making average calories even lower.
I just seem to do better when I keep fat under 60g.
I may be finding that it might be a calorie thing in that I need to eat [B]at least[/B] X amount to lose weight, and anything [B]below[/B] that is counterproductive. Still working on that part.
Just continuing my ramble, as I was just thinking, I dont think it was too low of calories either, because I can lose when I fast, and I can lose when I do a certain "mono-food" fast for a few days. Might have mostly been water, not sure, but the difference is, I gain it back when I come off the fast and went back to high fat. I kept it off when I came off the mono fast and had changed my macros around. I kept losing when I came off my fast and went into my first mono fast for a couple of days.
Just yakking.

Today is the day! It's time for red carpets, teary speeches, and bets lost and won. We are live-blogging the Oscars tonight to cheer on our favorites and dish about the absurdities.
Starting at 7 p.m. (EST) tonight, Sunday, February 24, we'll be watching the 85th Annual Academy Awards, hosted by Seth MacFarlane. As our Alexandra MacAaron noted, "the good news for female audiences of a certain age lay in the Best Supporting Actress category, where two actresses over the age of 60 were named, and the average age of the nominees is nearly 50." The average age is 50! Well, that's right up our alley.
Join us and cheer along. Click on our "Oscar Central" post, scroll down, and comment. We welcome your opinions—as short or long as you like. Comments will be screened before we post them, and our online chats are famously civil (if a little catty sometimes about fashion). Feel free to share links and photos—and Tweets @womensvoices, too!

(stupid "security" N I C E!)
I went Primal almost exactly a month ago. I weighed about 235 lbs at the time, but those last 10 lbs were new weight put on from Thanksgiving to Christmas. I went Primal 100%, and started to experiment with different exercise routines. Addmitedly, I was ALL over the place. I had read some stuff from Doug McGuff and was dabbling in those types of really, slow intense movements. I spent less time in the gym. I definitely got some sprinting in. I added Vitamin D and fish oil to my diet. After a few weeks I got really frustrated and even posted my frustrations here a couple times. I wasn't losing weight.....I felt soft.....nothing is happening....blah, blah, blah.
ANYWAY...last night I got to the gym just to do one of my old traditional workouts for upper body. I hadn't bench pressed in about 3 weeks. Any chest I was doing was with either bodyweight or high intensity stuff on machines the way that Doug McGuff suggested.
Here was the breakthrough: I got down on the bench to do some warm-ups. Threw 135 on the bar to get the blood flowing. Immediately I thought to myself,"hmmm...this feels really light in my hands and my abs feel really engaged here". It was different. I defintely felt stronger than usual. So I did a few warm-up sets with the intention of doing a heavier set for 5. I was only going to use 225 lbs because I hadn't benched in a while and I had been complaining about how weak and soft I was getting.
I remembered though something I had been hearing on all these YouTube videos: "you have to go to failure in order to cause an adaption to occur". And the one thing I had been religious about over the last few weeks is hitting everything until complete failure (like Doug McGuff suggests).
So I asked a dude to spot me on 225 and told him that my goal was 5 but I wanted to go to failure. I put it up and repped out until I hit 13 reps and that's when my chest gave out. Now I know that not a world record and back in college I was doing 225 for 27 reps or so, but for me, this was a huge breakthough after changing my diet so dramatically and feeling as if I was getting nowhere whatsoever.
I also weighed in at 228 lbs. today. So technically that's 7 lbs. this month. I wasn't really including those first 5 because I felt it was new weight and should come off easily, but that's not really fair to me.....so in my mind, it counts.
(stupid "security" N I C E!)
great job man, glad you are seeing some improvement! keep it up, you will keep seeing more and better things!
That is great!! Now do yourself a favor and don't get back into thinking that more is better. You just proved to yourself that the HIT workouts are working. Stick with it. You are making progress!!!
Very cool, glad to hear you've come through. I saw your earlier post and was wondering where it would go.
I'm almost 1 month in, and had a similar expoerience...just that only now do I feel like everything is clicking. I mean, how can e expect instant results after decades of eating against our nature? I knew I was burning fat once the hunger sensation became a lot more subtle. Still there, just not shouting at me to eat NOW. BUT, you work out a lot more and harder than I do, so you're probably going to need more. Mark is pretty clear about what happens to your body when you get outside the range of what a fat-burner can do, so if you haven't, go back a re-read those posts. Keep it up--keep us posted...
And just a quick add-on to my original post: I went up to the baseball field today to do some sprints. I had on my typical sneakers with like 3 inches of padding at the bottom. I said what the hell and kicked the suckers off and went full on barefoot. I'm not gonna lie......I felt ALIVE!!!
You'll have to let us know how your legs and feet feel tomorrow!!

I recently started a new patio/sunroom garden in my home with deep planters! I am excited! I planted cucumbers, cabbage, squash and onions(in a tray). I got help from the local nursery that I bought the seedlings from(I felt for my first time out, I need more resilient start!).
Only problem is....I didn't take into account the amount of sun that comes in to my sunroom!
These last few days have been overcast and I already get mild sun. Does anyone have suggestions for me? I'm using this space because my yard is full of pine trees and I also have many critters that will not let delicious plants thrive(they want to eat them too!).
Any advice would be welcome!

Justin Abdelkader is likely to pay the price for his hit on Toni Lydman. Lydman already has.
"Toni has headaches and a stiff neck. Bright lights are bugging him. I don't know when that's not going to be there," Anaheim Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau told reporters on Sunday, according to ESPN's Craig Custance.
NHL playoffs: Schedule, results, TV info
Abdelkader, a forward for the Detroit Red Wings, earned a game misconduct during Anaheim's 4-0 Game 3 win on Saturday night after he appeared to leave his feet to shoulder Lydman in the head. He had a disciplinary hearing scheduled for Sunday afternoon.
Sheldon Souray will likely take Lydman's place in Game 4 in Detroit on Sunday.
Anaheim scored on the power play after Abdelkader's hit, on their way to a win that gave them a 2-1 series lead. At this point, the question seems to be how long his suspension lasts.
"It's a hard thing to talk about when it's your own teammate," Wings forward Dan Cleary said, according to the Orange County Register. "He has no history of this. He's not a guy who targets people."

Scout Out Some Fun Family Adventures
Brundage Snow Blog
August 2, 2013 by April
If you're like me, you're always looking for fun, affordable things to do outside. An exciting new program is making that pursuit easier (and more rewarding) than ever here in our area.
Brundage Mountain is proud to be involved with a cool new group called the Payette Children's Forest. The PCF is less a 'place' and more a 'concept'. The idea is to make it easy for families to tap in to all of the great outdoor offerings in our area.
What makes the program even more fun is that it combines some old-school concepts with high-tech tools, to help bring the generations together.
When I was a kid, scout programs were HUGE. We would search out new experiences and adventures to earn badges. (Back in the day, we would sew patches on a vest or shirt as we collected them.)
The modern version of this is to collect on-line, or 'virtual' badges for real-world experiences. (One bonus, no sewing!)
That's the focus of the Payette Children's Forest, and we're excited to introduce TWO summer activities here at Brundage Mountain that will qualify your kids for a PCF badge.
#1.) EARN A "PEAKS" BADGE by taking a scenic chairlift ride to our 7,640 foot summit.
#2) EARN AN "ADRENALINE" BADGE by mountain biking down at least one of our single track trails.
We suggest you start on Elk Trail if it's your first time biking at Brundage.
What's even better? Tell our ticket agent that you are collecting PCF badges, and you will receive a 20% discount off of single or full day lift tickets (age -17). Kids 6 & under are always free!
Starting August 23rd, we will also offer a 20% discount on bike rentals to youth 17 & under who are collecting PCF badges.
Our ticket agent will give you a sticker with an event code for either a chairlift ride or mountain biking. You can then go to www.payettechildrensforest.org and click on the 'Badges' icon to enter your code and earn a badge for this adventure!
That website also has information on the wide variety of adventure, educational and just plain fun outdoor activities and events that are available to families and kids in our area.
We hope you'll check it out and come play in the woods soon!
– April

Danny Boice: How I Won a SXSW Pitch Contest
Guest Danny Boice, co-founder and CTO, Speek, Washington, D.C.: So I go to South by Southwest. It's my third or fourth time, whatever. I figure I'll go, pimp Speek out, and grab some drinks.
Next thing I know I'm hanging out at Tech Cocktail at The Stage on Sixth and my co-founder tells me that he's going to dinner with the mayor of D.C. in one hour. He asks if I can pitch in front of the thousands of people there. I wonder if this is a good idea considering I've been day-drinking and my 5-Hour Energies have run out. What do I do?
I improvise.
I arrive and I'm told I have 30 minutes before it's my turn to pitch in front of this huge crowd. Being 24th in line, I realize time is limited to sober up. So I have a couple more 5-Hour Energy Extremes….and beers. Yeah, I know. It's complicated. Also, SXSW makes things weird.
In no time at all, it's my turn. Frank Gruber, the head of Tech Cocktail, which hosted the pitch contest, hands me the mic and I have a matter of minutes to win this. I decide that someday, somehow I'm going to figure out a way to trick my co-founder into getting tattooed.
Without hesitation, I approach the stage.
I do my usual 30-second elevator pitch on Speek. "I'm Danny Boice – the co-founder and CTO of Speek. We fix lousy conference calls. Instead of a dial-in and PIN we give you a simple link, mine is speek.com/danny yada yada yada." Nailed it.
But this is South By Southwest. The competition is fierce. We must win. I had to pick up my game.
So, I did what any responsible co-founder in this situation would do — I lied. I continue with, "But here's the best part. My co-founder, Speek's CEO, John Bracken left me here alone to do this pitch contest so that he could go have dinner with D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray. However, before he left he promised that if I managed to win this pitch contest he would get the Speek monkey tattooed on his a–. Vote for Speek."
We won the prize for "Best Pitch," giving us promotion and bragging rights in front of a great audience of potential investors. Which is awesome. So I called my co-founder to tell him the good news.
[Full disclosure - I NEVER in a million years thought that John would ever get tattooed. He's the ying to my yang. This guy looks like the nutty professor. There's no way he follows through with this.]
Startup founders: This is what it's all about when you built a product. You live up to the promise you make to your users, no matter what.
I have to give credit to John. His wife is probably angry right now (trust me I know how that goes). However, he followed through. This just shows how passionate the leaders of our company are about our users. We want to help solve problems for our users no matter what.
Even if it's a pain in the derrière.
So, to make a long story short, here I am at the Dell party at SXSW, drinking a Fat Tire, and writing a blog post on a hacked Dell XPS laptop, telling my story about how we won a SXSW 2013 pitch contest with a $120 tattoo. It's whatever. Hey, it could be worse – at least it doesn't hurt when I sit down. Sorry John.

NHL players are largely considered to be the nice guys of professional sports.
They don't want to hog the camera, they don't talk with the media about how much they deserve to be paid, they don't interview themselves and they are generally very respectful of the game and of the players in the league.
Unfortunately, there are those players that remain that occasionally do or say things that they really shouldn't.
They lead to those moments that nobody wants to talk about because of how poorly they reflect on the game of hockey yet get shown on SportsCenter over and over again.
Moments like the ones you are about to see.

What was your source for this crocheting project?
Online Photo or Website
Name of website or photo Christmas Plaid Afghan
What materials did you use? Soft worsted weight yarn, in 6 oz. (170 g) skeins - Blue (7), Green (4), White (1), Red (2), Black (1), Yellow (1); and a size I (5.5 mm) crochet hook.
What are you most proud of? I'm really happy with the way the colors worked together to create this design! The afghan is a good solid afghan to keep you warm on a cold winter night!
What advice would you give someone starting this project? This is not as complicated as it looks! The reversible design is achieved by alternating rows of blue with green, white, red, black and yellow, using a combination of sc and long hdc which are worked into the previous row. The long hdc are worked with the main color on even rows and the contrasting colors on odd rows creating the reversible effect. The main color rows are woven in at the ends, and a length of yarn is left at each end on all the contrasting color rows to be incorporated into the fringe. A design chart is also included with the pattern. When working the solid blue section, be sure to follow the instructions carefully to achieve the texture of the pattern. The finished afghan size is 47" wide x 67-1/2" long (not including fringe). This pattern is available for $4.00 and is written in U.S. terms.
This looks like it took a lot of time! Great job, I love it!
Thanks! It really didn't take much time at all! It's only four different rows ... just changing colors to create the plaid design! It was a lot of fun!

SAN ANTONIO (AP) - San Antonio will be home to a WNBA franchise beginning in 2003 if enough fans pay for tickets in the coming months.
The deal, announced Monday by the San Antonio Spurs, calls for the new team to attract at least 6,000 season-ticket deposits of $50 each by Nov. 15.
"We think San Antonio is ripe for the WNBA," Spurs chairman Peter Holt said. "We've wanted to be part of the WNBA from the beginning."
San Antonio has consistently ranked among the nation's top cities in watching WNBA games on television, according to the league.
The WNBA is owned collectively by the 29 NBA owners, and all of its teams are in cities where an NBA franchise is located.
Clarissa Davis-Wrightsil, who played in the WNBA after starring at the University of Texas in the late 1980s, is the chief operating officer for the women's team.
The 18,500-seat SBC Center is still under construction on the city's northeast side.
The Spurs, who now play in the Alamodome, are scheduled to move there for the 2002-03 season.
Ackerman said the San Antonio team would likely be an expansion for the 16-team league, but she wouldn't rule out relocating an existing franchise.

A woman found dead in a home given to her by Colts' owner Jim Irsay died of an accidental drug overdose, according to the coroner's report obtained by the Indianapolis Star reported Thursday.
Kimberly Wundrum died March 2. Irsay was arrested on March 16 and charged with driving while impaired and drug possession.
According to the Indianapolis Star, three homes since 2007 listed as Wundrum's address were purchased by "Blue Trust," which is administered by the Indianapolis Colts executives. Her sister, Rhonda Wundrum, told the paper that Kimberly Wundrum and Irsay were "former friends."
She had a long history of substance abuse. According to the police report of the scene of her death, an orange plate with white powder, straw and razor were found at the scene.
Wundrum was arrested twice on drug charges in the seven months before her death. On Aug. 30, police found 18 non-prescribed Vicodin pills in her possession, as well as a small amount of non-prescribed Adderall. On Jan. 4 she was stopped driving the wrong way on Interstate-65, almost hitting a police car. She was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated with drugs in her system, and criminal recklessness.
Her deceased ex-husband was an attorney in Florida who was sentenced to 15 months in prison federal tax charges and died in 2005 of an overdose.
It isn't clear whether Irsay is still in rehab. He has not yet been formally charged, as prosecutors may be waiting on the results of blood test taken after his arrest.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has not announced any discipline yet for Irsay. That is a process that many players, in particular, are watching closely to see how severe the commissioner's actions might be against an owner.

I love hearing stories like this. Congrats and keep it up!
My blog - FitandFree.net - Live Healthy. Be Awesome.
Great Job - it's amazing that this many months in (I started Jan 3rd and am down >60lbs) it is sustainable. Many people who comment on my weight loss say in a dramatic way "I know how hard it is" and I reply "No, I just stopped eating foods that are bad for me and the rest just happened". They always give me a puzzled loook like I'm "special" or something!
Wow... congratulations! Can't wait to see before and after pics!!
I'm down 30 and actually managed to play a set of tennis with my husband this afternoon

Great job!!!
Thanks so much guys. Its definitely been a journey so far, and it will continue to be. I've hit some plateaus here and there that have tested my patience but I've broken on through every one of them. I've not been nearly as strict as I could have been...I've used a more than fair portion of the 80/20 rule. I but I looked at this from the beginning as a way of living, and not just a "diet" to meet some goal. All in all though I love my big assed salads, my omelets, bacon, vegetables, and I don't really miss the other foods that much. Sometimes I'll steal one fork full off of someone elses plate at restaurant just to get a taste, but that basically satisfies my "craving" for it.
I was digging through my old P90X stuff when I tried that a few years ago and seen my waist measurements (I didn't actually do any of that when I started the PB But I was actually heavier when I started this than when i started P90X ironically enough...) and found that it was 42 inches back then. I'm 36 today. So 8 inches lost atleast, probably more actually.

As part of Mary St. George's New Zealand Gifted Awareness Week Blog Tour, this post addresses homework for the gifted student.
Admittedly, as a classroom teacher, I avoided differentiated homework for many years. The idea of finding, assigning, grading, and following-up with multiple assignments seemed prohibitively time-consuming. Until I tried it.
This post begins with essential understandings and ends with some practical ideas.
Essential Understandings
1. Homework for gifted students should not be 'more of the same'. If you want your class to spend their homework time reviewing the process of adding fractions, gifted students will not learn anything additional if you give them 20 computation problems while the other students do 10.
2. The homework objective should align with the class objective. Let's say you're studying groups of people native to your country of origin. You want the class to use a few websites or book pages to locate information critical to the understanding of the natives' culture. You have a student in your class who is a font-of-all-knowledge on the topic. Assigning the student to research modern Estonia won't lead the student to a deeper knowledge of native cultures. Asking the student to make a video portraying his or her knowledge of the culture may help the student learn more about tech skills than native culture. You want to further this child's understanding of native cultures – the same objective you have for others.
3. You don't need to create a new differentiated assignment each day for each subject. You can't. You just can't.
4. Make sure the student (and parents!) know that the gifted child is not expected to spend any more time on his or her assignment than you expect of the rest of the students. One of my favourite Australian phrases is "Have a go." Some gifted students will pressure themselves to find a correct answer the next day (After all, the other students have to have all their answers correct the next day). Ask the gifted student to work on the alternate question or topic for 20-30 minutes. The next day, the student can tell you what he or she thought about or tried. If you have multiple gifted students who did the same alternate assignment, they can meet together to come to share thinking and come to consensus on an answer.
Option 1: Add a thought-provoking question.
In my ground rules example, I mentioned a homework assignment for practicing the addition of fractions. With gifted Year 5 students, the directions change. Say,
"Instead of doing all of these problems, pick two – just so I know that you know you remember how to add fractions. But I'd like you to spend the remainder of your homework time thinking through one of my dilemmas: We teachers tell you that fractions and decimals are the same. I'm not sure if that is true. When I add 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3, I get 1. When I add 0.333 [repeating] + 0.333 [repeating] + 0.333 [repeating], I get 0.999 [repeating]. Those aren't exactly the same. Can you help me figure out why? What happens to the extra 0.001?" – or
"We've been working on the rules of divisibility for 2, 3, 5, 6, and 10. Can you figure out rules for 4, 7, and/or 8?"
Many teachers get stuck on the idea that students have to turn in something to be graded. If a gifted student has grappled with a difficult question, write anecdotal notes about your conversation(s) with them. You're holding them accountable by having the follow-up conversation.
Option 2: Give the student choices as to how to extend knowledge
Returning to the example of the student who could give a college lecture on many aspects of native culture, consider giving the student a few other homework choices that deepen knowledge or add complexity. The conversation goes something like this…
"Look, Jung Ho, I now that you already know everything in the reading assigned for tonight. I'm wondering if there is anything else you might like to know.
- If I set up a Google hangout with an historian or a person of Aboriginal descent, what questions would you want to ask that person? How 'bout you spend tonight thinking about those questions and we'll discuss them tomorrow?" – or
- I've been thinking about the apologies made to the Aboriginals by the Australian government. Have countries like New Zealand, South Africa or the United States made similar apologies? What, if anything, might they need to apologise for? Would you say the colonists' treatment of native Australians is better or worse than the treatment of those native to New Zealand, South Africa or the United States? Would you like to look into that?" – or
- I watched the All Blacks do the haka before yesterday's football game. It made me wonder about all the ways the Maoris' culture is similar to or different from the culture of the Aboriginals. Would you like to look into that?" – or
- I've been thinking about all the explorers who encountered native cultures from different countries. If you were a native, which explorer would you have most wanted to 'discover' your country? Which one would you dread the most?" – or
- "When I was in Mexico, I went to an art gallery and saw pictures of the native Mexicans' encounters with Cortez. The natives were visibly oppressed. Then I went to Spain and saw Spanish artwork of Cortez's encounter with the Mexican natives. The natives were smiling. Would you like to look into some artwork depicting colonials' encounters with natives and see if you notice other things?"
Option 3: Work with the student to develop a learning contract.
The beauty of a learning contract is that the student both plans it and completes it. Your input is critical, but the onus of the contract (especially for older students) lies directly on the student(s).
Homework contracts may contain any of the following:
- Overarching question
- List of sources to investigate
- Journal pages to document investigations and thinking
- Presentation format or picture of the end product
- Timeline of due dates (most important!)
Projects can seem overwhelming for some gifted students. Also, gifted students sometimes get so engrossed in reading and research that they never get to information synthesis or presentation.
You'll want to hold the student accountable for an end product but also allow the due dates to be fluid. As students continue to research and think, a final project may morph into something completely different. Your goal is to make sure students are working and to push their thinking.
Option 4: Make worksheets two-sided.
Worksheets are most prevalent in math. One side of a sheet could comprise computational problems that help students review the day's lesson. The other side could extend the concept with a problem-solving situation or a thought-provoking question.
As much as possible, align the mathematical strand with the problem-solving concept. One side might be the addition of decimals. The other side might ask students to make an organised list to find the number of possible combinations of coins could pay for a $5 load of laundry.
The key is that students can choose. Many students not identified as gifted will want to 'have a go' with the challenge problem. Some parents will require their child to do both sides, even if you're explicit that students should only spend x-number of minutes per night. It doesn't hurt them.
Final Thoughts
If you ask students to do 'more of the same' or you require them to do things they already know, you teach them that homework is pointless. You want to teach gifted students that homework can be valuable for them too.
