What is in this article?:
- Beehive microbes may shed light on honey bee disease
- Hive treatment
- Honeybees are vital to the U.S. food system. U.S. farmers count on them to pollinate about $15 billion worth crops each year.
If you spot a honeybee in the UW-Madison's Allen Centennial Gardens and are wondering where it came from, look up.
There's a good chance it lives on the top floor of the nearby Microbial Sciences Building. Six floors up in bacteriologist Cameron Currie's lab, doctoral student Kirk Grubbs maintains a hive right next to his lab bench. Bees come and go through a tube that passes through the building's brick wall.
"I like to have a hive in the lab so I can see what's going on. It's really helped me conceptualize what actually happens inside a hive and how it acts as one big organism," says Grubbs. He often has more research hives on a deck just down the hall, and still more off campus, at Madison's Vilas Park Zoo and at the university's West Madison Agricultural Research Station.
Grubbs is unique among the researchers on Currie's team. Most of them study leaf-cutter ants - exploring the complex symbiosis between the ant and the beneficial bacteria they grow on their bodies - but Grubbs is the lab's honeybee guy. He is studying the microbial communities associated with healthy honeybee hives, in hopes of better understanding why a lot of them are getting sick.
Honeybees are vital to our food system. U.S. farmers count on them to pollinate about $15 billion worth crops each year. But today's bee colonies are at risk. Since 2006, commercial hives have been plagued by what's known as colony collapse disorder, a perplexing phenomenon in which large numbers of bees abruptly disappear. Scientists aren't sure what causes this to happen, but they speculate that a number of factors may be involved-from mites and diseases to malnutrition and pesticides.
Grubbs' research aims to see how the bee's microbial partners might fit in.
So far, he's gathered baseline data about the microbial community in a typical, healthy hive. As it turns out, the make-up of the microbial community varies from one part of the hive to another, depending on what's going on in each location-whether bees are storing honey, pollen or brood-and these different microbial communities seem to be consistent across hives.

There have been some Novembers when DeWitt's football team was just happy to be alive in the state football tournament.
There have also been other postseasons when the Panthers simply fell to a better team, or when DeWitt coach Rob Zimmerman thought the team could have survived to play another week.
When it comes to the state tournament, Zimmerman, whose team plays St. Clair in Saturday's 1 p.m. Division 3 semifinal at Goodrich, said it's often a roll of the dice.
"It depends on the season," he said. "As far as winning, there have probably been some semifinals where we probably shouldn't have been there. But to get to that point, the kids have to be zeroed in and doing a great job.
"Each group expects to make a run in the playoffs and we've had our shots. Sometimes you lose to a better team and you were just fortunate to get there. We're very proud of what we've accomplished and what we have."
DeWitt knows all about getting there. The Panthers have been one of the state's best postseason teams since 2001, going 29-10 in the tournament. DeWitt has made 11 semifinal appearances since 1988, while losing in the Division 3 finals in 2002 and the Division 4 state finals in 2003-04. Last year the Panthers, which have won nine regionals under Zimmerman, lost to eventual state champ Grand Rapids Christian in the semifinals.
This year, DeWitt (12-0) enters the tournament as one of eight teams still alive which were ranked No. 1 in the final Associated Press poll. It's a mix of experience (21 seniors) and youth, including eight junior starters on offense. Six sophomores were starting by last year's match-up with Grand Rapids Christian. DeWitt had nine players named all-conference this season.
While there are high expectations for a team ranked No. 1 and is armed with the experience of playing in last year's semifinal, Zimmerman declines the opportunity to compare teams. He won't say if his current club mirrors any of the three finals teams.
"Certainly it's one of the best," said Zimmerman, whose teams are 54-8 since 2009. "I wouldn't say if it is the best, but it's certainly in the top couple."
Offensively, the Panthers are led by junior quarterback Jacob Johnson, who has drawn interest from Central Michigan while throwing for 28 touchdowns and more than 1,600 yards with just one interception. Receivers Christopher Ruby and Josh Borta have each caught 14 touchdown passes and combined for over 1,700 yards.
"Certainly he has improved and he's a very talented kid," Zimmerman said of Johnson, who missed three games to injuries late in the season.
Ben Heinritz is the leading rusher with 1,300 yards, including 8.8 yards per carry.
Defensively, DeWitt has been outstanding, giving up one touchdown or less in nine games. No team has scored more than 20 points and that was in a 48-20 win over St. Johns. DeWitt has outscored three playoff opponents 90-20.
Ruby, a three-year starter at defensive back, leads the team with eight interceptions.
St Clair coach Bill Nesbitt agrees that a long tournament run is often a roll of the dice, but also thinks match-ups have much to do with winning in November.
"Absolutely," he said. "Any coach goes in expecting to win, but you also have to look at the big picture. Some years you have more talent or there is a greater effort. A lot of it comes down to the match-ups that year. Some years you're playing a pretty darn good team and other years not quite as much."
St Clair is headed by senior quarterback Jared Tobey, who has rushed for 1,327 yards and thrown for 886 more. He's accounted for 38 touchdowns.
Senior running back Bo Meldrum has ran for over 1,300 yards, averaging 10.7 yards per carry. The team's top five back are all averaging at least five yards per carry.
A lightning-like offense has helped the program go from a 14-22 record from 2008-11 to winning 20 of 23 games the last two seasons. St Clair set a school record of 417 points last season to smashing that mark with 580 this season.
"We have some good kids who've put in a lot of time in the weight room," Nesbitt said. "And it's a close group. I've coached different places since 1990 and this team is very selfless."

I am a little tired of dance films. It was a miracle I gave "How She Move(s)" a chance. The title made me shudder at the thought that I was possibly going to suffer, watching a regurgitation of "Step Up," "Save the Last Dance," etc. However, while my loathing of this genre still occurs, this film was decent, but still cliched.
"How She Move" tells the story of Raya Green (Rutina Wesley) an intelligent student studying at a private high school whose world is turned upside down when her drug-addicted sister dies. She returns to her crime-ridden neighborhood where she learns of a step competition that could pay for her pricey education.
Almost all the films of this genre have the main character overcome an obstacle that generally deals with their sketchy surroundings, this one is no exception. What worked with this film was the fact that it did not try to be gritty, it naturally was.
While I am not a fan of dance films, the low-budget feel of this film saved it from looking like the rest. The dancing in the film was very well choreographed but felt a little too repetitive toward the end of the film. Unfortunately, the cliches in the script itself are too much for me to get over.

Fantasy basketball prize money increased to $300
We're trying something new in ocregister.fanduel.com fantasy basketball this week.
Instead of our traditional Beat The Experts format, we're putting up $300 in prize money, with the same $5 entry fee.
It's still a Friday league, when the Lakers play at home against the Sacramento (someday, maybe Anaheim) Kings as part of a 12-game NBA schedule.
First place will be worth $80, second $70, third $60, fourth $50 and fifth $40.
Here's the link:
Last week's winner was the entry by texas, with Kevin Ding tied for seventh. My woeful team, saddled with Deron Williams' career-low performance, finished 23rd despite fine performances by the rest of the lineup.

Last year the St. Louis Area Agency on Aging helped hundreds of seniors and persons with disabilities apply for the Property Tax Credit (Circuit Breaker). As a result, those persons received rebates totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The Missouri Property Tax Credit Claim (also known as Circuit Breaker) gives money back to persons 65 and older and persons 18-64 that receive SSI, SSD, or Veterans Disability for a portion of the rent or real estate tax they paid for that year. People living in tax exempt buildings are not eligible to apply for the Circuit Breaker.
To be eligible, if a person is renting, they must have an income of $27,500 or less for a single person or $29,500 or less for a household.
To be eligible, if a person owns and occupies their home for the full year, a single person must have an income of $30,000 or less or for a household, they can have an income of $34,000 or less.
The credit is for a maximum of $750 for renters and $1,100 for owners who owned and occupied their home. The amount the person receives is based on the amount of real estate taxes or rent paid and the total household income (taxable and nontaxable).
From January 1, 2012 until April, 2012, persons can apply for 2011, 2010, 2009, and 2008.
To access the Missouri Property Tax Credit application, go to:
To schedule an appointment to have your Property Tax Credit application completed at no charge, please contact the St. Louis Area Agency on Aging at (314) 612-5918 and we will schedule an appointment at a center in your area.

Process Development Jobs Still the Most...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
Mirus Bio offers an extensive line of products for the investigation of microRNAs (miRNAs). These are small, noncoding RNAs of 19 to 24 nucleotides involved in regulation of messenger RNA.
MicroRNAs are members of a class of small regulatory RNAs including small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that control the expression of downstream gene targets, including transcription factors, oncogenes, and tumor suppressor genes. Because of their association with cancer development, diagnosis, and prognosis, it is believed that their signatures can be used to detect and classify cancers and predict the severity of disease.
Technological advances by Mirus and other companies in expression profiling and in the ability to collect minute quantities of tissues allow a growing number of global transcriptional studies. Microarray technology is now well established for miRNA studies.
According to Shannon Bruse, Ph.D., director of scientific operations at Mirus, "MicroRNA expression-profiling analysis has become a prominent application of microarray technology, measuring the presence and relative amount of specific miRNAs." In order to quantify the fluorescent signal from the hybridization step, the Mirus Bio's Label IT platform covalently attaches label to nucleic acids. "Samples labeled directly with the Label IT reagents do not require enzymatic replication, while at the same time they yield sensitive hybridizations," Dr. Bruse adds.
"Rapid pathogen testing is an unmet clinical need that PCR combined with microarrays can fill," says Christof Henne, Ph.D., key account manager for diagnostics at Eppendorf Diagnostics. To address this void, the company has developed the RAP™ (Real-Time Array PCR) that it believes combines the advantages of qPCR and those of microarrays.
According to Dr. Henne, RAP technology brings together the sensitivity and reproducibility of PCR with the rapid multiplexing capability of microarrays.
A critical feature in the construction of the Eppendorf platform was the genetic engineering of the active site of the polymerase enzyme so it would function at high salt concentrations. This allows stable surface binding under conditions that would ordinarily be nonpermissible. Microarrays do not lend themselves to quantification, and they have a low dynamic range, but these drawbacks can be overcome when they are combined with effective PCR.
Dr. Henne mentions that the Eppendorf platform can be coupled to commercial systems for PCR-based DNA testing. "This is a niche market that is rapidly expanding with an increasing number of assays," he notes. One example of an integrated commercial system for PCR-based DNA testing is designed by Cepheid, combining sample preparation, DNA amplification, and detection. "The system was originally developed for anthrax testing, but the company is now expanding its diagnostic offerings," Dr. Henne comments.
"For a point-of-care test for infectious disease diagnosis to be acceptable, it must have robustness and it must have built-in controls that inform the user of his mistakes, with clear positive and negative controls," he continues. "The more automated the platform is, the better for the patient, so the only remaining variable is the sample quality."
Personalized medicine is a rapidly developing area to which the RAP technology lends itself, Dr. Henne notes. Voluminous information is generated per patient, and it will be necessary to describe the patient in much more individualized terms, taking into account genetic subtypes that describe sensitivity to cancer and other disease processes.
"The combination of multiplexing ability with rapid testing will be essential in building of personalized medicine platforms," he concludes.
Since array technology came on the scene in the early 1990s, it has experienced a number of advances that have greatly expanded its range of possibilities, and it is widely used today for gene-profiling studies that may produce drug targets or potential biomarkers. Yet doubts still exist concerning the reproducibility and compatibility of array data generated in different laboratories and on different platforms. Until these technical and experimental issues can be resolved, the technology will not reach its full potential as a tool for drug discovery.

As the NBA readies for All-Star Weekend in Houston, the progress reports are in for the 2012 rookie class.
In the immortalized words of former Arizona Cardinals coach Dennis Green, "They are who we thought they were."
The scouts had this draft pegged pretty correctly.
It's a good class, although its early legacy has been built more around its strength in numbers, over individual stardom. As scouts predicted, the class has already produced one star (Damian Lillard), even if it wasn't whom they had tabbed for greatness (No. 1 overall pick, Anthony Davis).
But its star production isn't done yet. The following players have all shown flashes of dominance early on, and a half-season of NBA hoops has put them in perfect position to shine down the stretch.

So I'm the poor sucker who gets put in charge planning our company holiday partys...I kid, I kid...it's actually kinda fun! But our company didn't decide to have a party until early November! Anyone who knows about this knows that is not enough time to find a great place on a weekend night for over 150 people during the holiday season. Somehow Hornblower had an opening though on a Friday night. They made the event so easy to plan and were totally flexible with custom menus and things like that! Seriously, I got so much cred at work and it didn't feel like I did any work at all. Yay me!

Today more than ever, consumers want local produce and local farmers are ready to sell it to them. But there is a gap in the process – and Grand Rapids Community College has designed a program to close that gap.
Through a regional, public/private sector partnership, GRCC hopes their new Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) Food Safety program will provide the solution. GRCC's GAP program will certify area farmers so they can supply Michigan grocers and wholesale distributors such as Sysco, Spartan Stores and others.
Sysco Produce Manager and GRCC Food Safety Advisory Council member, Denis Jennisch, is glad that GRCC has stepped up to take on this role for the region. "Our demand for local food is greater than the supply, yet food safety requirements are limiting some growers from working with us. This program will take growers to the point of being ready for full certification and then we will be able to source their product. That means more local produce will be available at local grocery stores, restaurants and schools," said Jennisch.
According to GRCC Director of Workforce Training, Julie Parks, GRCC's GAP Food Safety program is "one of the most comprehensive training programs in food safety practices, due to our on-farm mentoring program which will prepare growers for full certification. This training is especially valuable for small and mid-size growers working in sustainable agriculture in the state of Michigan," she said.
"We took a great deal of time to find out what was missing in terms of food safety training and offerings. Our goal is to work with other organizations and institutions and to compliment rather than duplicate offerings," added Parks. "Food buyers in the area are in need of more growers who are food safety certified. What we discovered from our Food Safety Advisory Council was that farmers need training in developing their own certification manual. Our expert instructors help with that."
"GRCC's program combines best practices from Michigan, along with other regions in the country, produces a self-audit, and ultimately a food safety manual suitable for review by an auditor," said Phil Tocco, MSU Extension, Jackson County and instructor for the course.
GAP Program community partners include Sysco, Walsma Lyons, Michigan State University Extension Services, and Morse Marketing Connections.
The first session began on February 6 and consists of three training sessions on consecutive Monday evenings. It will be offered again beginning April 9. The cost for this session is $199.00. Those interested in the GAP Food Safety Training should call (616) 234-3400 or go to grcclearn.com and click on food safety.
In 2010, GRCC trained over 8,000 people. Training areas include, but are not limited to: Alternative Energy, Business and Entrepreneurship, Health Care, Innovation, Manufacturing, and Sustainable Construction.
Grand Rapids Community College, established in 1914, offers opportunities for over 30,000 students annually in degree courses, certification and training programs, workshops and personal enrichment classes. GRCC holds classes on the downtown Grand Rapids campus as well as several additional locations throughout Kent and Ottawa counties.

TU women v.Hillsdale
February 25, 2010 - Zach Baker
What looked like a tough game on paper got much tougher yesterday, when Tiffin post Jessica Harris rolled her ankle. She's on crutches, and if I were to guess, I'd say her season is over. TU closes it's regular season Saturday.
With 17:05 left in the first half, TU trails, 7-4.
The Dragons have gone on a 7-2 run, and lead, 14-9. So far, Hillsdale has been hesitant to foce the issue inside, which would seem to be the most logical gameplan with TU's lack of size up front. (13:51)
With 9:56 left, we're tied at 19. Jaeb has eight points. The Dragons have shot reasonably well so far, and it's staying with the bigger Chargers.
Other Dragons are stepping up in Harris' absence. I have Katrina Clark for five rebounds. Jessica Harris has hit some key jump shots, and Stephanie Kelly has eight points. TU leads, 32-30. Considering the Dragons lost by 40 to Hillsdale last time, and are without their best post player, this is an accomplishment.
TU leads at the half, 42-33. The Dragons are out-rebounding Hillsdale, 22-17, which is pretty stunning. Jaeb has 10 points, Stephanie Kelly eight, Karli Mast seven and Jennifer Johnston nine. But the biggest reason TU is where is is is the play of senior Katrina Clark, who has six rebounds off the bench.
Hillsdale is being led by Chelsea Harrison and Laura Barczak, who have nine points each.
With 14:35 left in regulation, the Dragons hold a 51-47 edge over the Chargers, but Hillsdale's Leah Jones is heading to the line foir two free throws. TU's defense hasn't been as strong in the second half, but then again, Hillsdale is attacking the paint.
With about 9 and a half minutes remaining, Hillsdale's offense is clicking, and the Dragons are struggling to keep up. Harrison has 16, and Hillsdale leads, 62-58.
Jaeb hasn't scored yet in the second half. It's not for a lack of trying, but her shot has been a little off thus far. Mast has picked up the slack, with 14 points.
Laura Barczak has scored eight straight points for the Chargers. She has 21, and we're tied at 70 (6:02)
-A the 3:34 mark, TU trails, 72-70. Jaeb's shots still aren't falling, but the Dragons are getting enough offense from everyone else to stay in it..
With 1:53 left, the Chargers lead, 80-73. Jaeb just missed a short jumper. She has 14. The general concensus going in was that the Dragons needed 30 from her to contend. It hasn't worked out that way, but it looks like TU is starting to tire out.

http://www.blisteredthumbs.net/2012/...ect-crystalis/This morning we here at Blistered thumbs received some interesting information from a new Final Fantasy fan group, called Project Crystallis, that alerted us to their mission: bringing attention to and obtaining information about Final Fantasy Versus XIII and securing a western release for Final Fantasy Type-0 for the PSP. The group is focusing on these two games because they are part of the Fabula Nova Crystallis mythology which has been explored in Final Fantasy XIII 1+2. Despite being included in this same umbrella, we have not received clear information on the fates of either of these titles. Additionally, there have been murmurings that Final Fantasy Type-0 has been fully translated, but there have been no explicit plans to localize it by Square Enix.
The group has decided to adopt the tactics of fellow activists Project Rainfall, which increased awareness of several Nintendo RPGs, by petitioning Square Enix and spreading the word about the two games to raise interest. The end goal is just to receive clear information on the status of Final Fantasy Versus XIII and the possibility of a western release of Type-0. They are not trying to force the development team behind Versus XIII to speed up development, but simply want clear info instead of the usual Wait a little bit more, Soon, or in this case Wait till Next year. Project Crystallis stresses that they want to simulate the peaceful approach of Operation Rainfall instead of the violent one like Retake Mass Effect 3 ending.
The group can be found at the following sites:
So, what do you think? Project Rainfalls model has been successful in getting North American releases of The Last Story and Xenoblade Chronicles, so there is definitely a precedence for fan communities and their petitions getting results. Project Crystallis requests are relatively small in comparison, so it would seem that they have a good chance at getting their information, given enough support. Please share your thoughts in the comments below and feel free to clink on the links above if you wish to support Project Crystallis.
This can't hurt. At the very least, it will show Square-Enix that we're still interested in these games.

I love you for sharing this. I'm dying inside for not playing Type 0.

They acknowledged Final Fantasy Versus XIII was still in development. That's good enough for me. In the meantime, we have Lighting Returns, the last Final Fantasy XIII game, to look forward to playing.
EDIT: Lol at the same two people disliking my post.

I still don't understand the lack of Type-0 for the west. Hopefully we do get a Vita release later down the road.

Right...because I'm an elitist for being disappointed that SE as a company can't live to the standard they set for themselves years ago right? I mean it couldn't be that I legitimately bought and played those SE games and it's my OPINION that they sucked right? I'm not a fan Because in my OPINION the company is sucking? If you wanna fool yourself and drink the SE Kool-Aid go ahead. If you legit feel that they've been making high quality games then thats your opinion. BUT DONT YOU $#@!ING DARE, say im an elitist because in my opinion one of my former favourite companies have presented me with games that I and many others consider $#@! this entire gen.
I'm a fan of gaming first and foremost and as long as these companies keep trying to get my hard earned dollars, you're $#@!ing right I'll complain and voice my opinion if I deem them not worthy of my purchase.Thank You Shaq...For Everything

SEPTA and its largest union met for several hours of negotiations yesterday, but made little progress in drawing up a new contract to replace the labor pact that expires at midnight tonight.
But the feeling in City Hall is that the Transport Workers Union, Local 234, will not call an immediate strike if a contract is not completed by the deadline.
As the city and school district prepare to release plans today to deal with a possible SEPTA strike, some officials are publicly and privately predicting no citywide transit walkout this year.

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Addiction to heroin and morphine can be blocked—and pain relief increased—in rats by targeting an immune system receptor with the drug (+)naloxone, according to a study to be published later today.
The discovery could lead to new drugs that combine pain relief with the ability to suppress addiction to opioid drugs, a team of Australian and U.S. researchers concluded in the study, to be published in the Journal of Neuroscience.
"Our studies have shown conclusively that we can block addiction via the immune system of the brain, without targeting the brain's wiring," lead author Mark Hutchinson, Ph.D., ARC Research Fellow in the University of Adelaide's School of Medical Sciences, said in a statement. "Both the central nervous system and the immune system play important roles in creating addiction, but our studies have shown we only need to block the immune response in the brain to prevent cravings for opioid drugs."
The team has focused its research efforts on an immune receptor called Toll-Like Receptor 4 (TLR4). While opioid drugs such as morphine and heroin may bind to TLR4 in much the same way bacteria normally binds to the immune system, researchers found that TLR4 acts more as an amplifier for addiction.
The drug (+)naloxone stops that amplification by automatically shutting down the addiction. In addition to stopping the craving for opioids, thus cutting out behaviors associated with addiction, the shutdown also changes brain neurochemistry by ending production of dopamine, a chemical linked to providing addicts with a sense of 'reward' from the drug.
"We've suspected for some years that TLR4 may be the key to blocking opioid addiction, but now we have the proof," the study's senior author, Linda Watkins, Ph.D., director of the Interdepartmental Neuroscience Ph.D. Program and a member of the Center for Neuroscience at University of Colorado Boulder, said in the statement. "This work fundamentally changes what we understand about opioids, reward, and addiction.
"This has the potential to lead to major advances in patient and palliative care," Dr. Watkins added.
The (+)naloxone study follows by a week the publication of a study in Science Translational Medicine, in which researchers from The Scripps Research Institute found that the combination of buprenorphine and naltrexone caused rats to reduce their intake of cocaine with minimal risk of producing dependence on opioid drugs, "and may be useful as a treatment for cocaine addiction."

- Who can find a virtuous woman? her price is far above rubies
- She openeth her mouth with wisdom...
- She looketh well to the ways of her household
It always takes me a while to get into the swing of the holiday season at Christmas.
I don't like the way most people rush the season.
This year has been the worst yet--stores had Christmas stuff out before Halloween had even passed.
Not to mention so-called "Black Friday" sales all throughout the month of November--and on every day of the week, not just Friday!
Our church had their church wide Christmas dinner over two weeks ago, to accommodate the folks who go out of town over the holiday.
These days, most people are sick of the Christmas trappings by the time the big day arrives that they can't wait for a chance to take it all down again.
At my house, we just put a few strings of light up outside earlier this week; and while the tree is up, it's still not fully decorated yet.
I started my Christmas baking and candy making today. I may wrap presents tonight, so we'll have something under the tree when we finish it up.
I'm in no hurry, and that's the way I like it.
It really doesn't matter to me if my celebration coincides with the commercial parameters of when I should start or finish the holidays. I say a really neat sign that stated what I hope my whole life will reflect--that Jesus is the Reason for ALL Seasons.
For to us a child is born, for unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6
Until next time...

Hi Kumi. I'm new to pc gaming, and I downloaded and installed baby blues, and i'm just wondering if you could tell me of any programs that are good for opening and playing game files?
Hello Kumi! I'm a youtuber and I was hoping to know if one of your games could scare the living hell out of me. :p I'm downloading Baby Blues and I heard its amazing maybe you could make a 2016 trailer or so.
Hi there,
Went to play Baby Blues but it's letting me know that I am missing a .dll file?
I can take a picture of the error and send it to you but I'm not sure what to do to fix the problem.
I appreciate any help given,
Hello everybody,
Official KGames was lately down (or you could say dead). There was no updates, no news, no games and no nothing. However, at the start of 2015' KG started to come back, re-forming and as today after 2 whole years without updates, KGames is back up with an updated website, IndieDB and a YouTube channel (with new videos soon too). This year we have many ideas in mind along with the new developments but we can not achieve them without your support so please, help us grow old again and support KGames. If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact at Officialkgames.cu.cc (Please note that the website is still under development)
Thanks and best regards
I want to play baby blues but it is asking for a password which is not letting me download it
That's weird. I'm not sure why it's asking for a password, however I'm sure that Baby Blues is not password protected or anything like that, not that I know of at least. Where did you try to download Baby Blues from and where does it says it needs a password? Try to download from this link and tell me if it works Indiedb.com
Best regards,
Kumi! When is your new game, The Road going to be out? I've been so excited since you announced it and it's killing me not knowing whats up with it!!!
The Road have been long gone friend, it's been replaced with Fall of Nature. I've been really busy lately with a lot of stuff and been unable to update much on my websites. I just went a little quite for a while till these "busy months" pass haha. However I still do find some little time to work on Fall of Nature and wasteland online silently. (slow production) but its all coming out great. :)
Best regards,
hey i watched the video of this game (Baby blue) really great!
I've installed it and went through all the procedures, appears (ready) but I can not play, I'm new here ... someone can help me?
thanks for the attention! =)
Hello there, Many thanks to you! What is the reason that you cannot play? Is it showing some kind of error or something? If so, you can check out this link right here showing you how to fix almost all errors for Baby Blues - Indiedb.com :)

Quinton Hixson is a two-time District 5 champion who will go for his third title this weekend in Windber, but the last two years the Northern Bedford senior has had extra incentive going into the tournament.
Last year, Meyersdale's Eli Kerr beat Hixson at the Southmoreland Holiday Tournament for one of four losses Hixson had during the regular season. Hixson, however, pinned him in 2:22 in the 285-pound finals at districts en route to finishing seventh at the PIAA Championships, avenging a Southwest Regional loss to Central Cambria's Shane Morris with a pin in the seventh-place bout.
Hixson is 24-1 heading into this year's district tournament, and he has a chance to avenge that one loss. Somerset's Jake Hayman beat Hixson, 3-1 in overtime, in the Feb. 2 dual meet. Hixson is the top seed, and Hayman is the second seed, so they would have to meet in the finals for Hixson to avenge the loss. Hayman will likely have to go through Chestnut Ridge's Austin Buttry, who pinned the Somerset senior at the Richland Duals, in the semifinals.

Northern Bedford 285-pounder Quinton Hixson is vying for his third District 5 title.
Oddly enough, Hixson might have to wrestle one of his workout partners, Tussey Mountain's Mitchell Hall, in the semis.
"I expected to be undefeated, but the loss kind of made me realize how much I have to work to be the best I need to be," Hixson said. "I'm going to work really hard to get that third one. I don't see myself losing. I don't want to sound cocky, but I'm going to get that third one."
Hixson said he had pneumonia when he lost to Hayman, and while he usually pushes the 285-pound limit, he was down to 270 for that bout. It was his second bout with pneumonia this season, but Hixson says he feels better now after getting treated with antibiotics.
First-year coach Brian Dutchcot said nerves might have played a factor in the loss too.
"I think he's wrestling well," Dutchcot said. "He gets nervous at times because he thinks he has a target on him, and he has to live up to the seventh place at states. I think he can wrestle more wide open, and I hope to see that in the weeks to come."
That he has the potential to be a three-time district champion and possibly a regional and state champ - he is ranked second in the statewide Off The Mat rankings behind Fort Cherry's Corey Garrey - is remarkable considering he didn't start wrestling competitively until he was in eighth grade.
Then, former NBC coach Jan Clark brought Hixson up to the high school level as a freshman, and he went 12-13 with seven pins. Not bad for a freshman heavyweight, but Hixson said he had a "terrible" season.
In fact, Hixson was so upset with his wrestling that he almost quit. That was around the time of the Thomas Tournament, which he decided not to wrestle in.
"We gave him a little break," said Dutchcot, who was an assistant to Clark. "We didn't push hard. Coach Clark told him to take the weekend off. It's hard for a freshman to come up at heavyweight. It didn't play out like he had in mind.
"I remind him of that every day. I tell him 'You were going to give it up,' and he just laughs. Now, he really enjoys it."
As a sophomore, he went 24-7 with 15 pins and won his first district title with a 3-0 victory over Everett's Johnny Matney. Last year, he was 33-8 with 25 pins, and he qualified for Hershey by placing fifth at regionals. He started to improve toward the end of the season with the help of former Tyrone state champ Terry Tate, who started working out with him after the Thomas Tournament.
He's worked out with Tate a few times this year, and he practiced with Hall Monday. He's also practicing with Hollidaysburg's Matt Barton, who is ranked second behind Hixson in the Mirror wrestling rankings.
"It makes me practice a lot harder," Hixson said of the workouts with fellow heavyweights. "In practice, the only one closest to me in weight is the 195-pounder. I like a challenge, and Barton is pretty good."
"It's tough in the wrestling room because there's no one as big as Quinton," Dutchcot said. "The three of us [coaches] can't wrestle with him anymore. It's a challenge to get kids in there and for him to have a real good practice."
The 6-foot-2 Hixson was a first-team all-state football player, but more schools are looking at him in wrestling than football. The college wrestling coaches see a big man who is athletic and wins (93-29 in his career).
"He's the most athletic heavyweight I've come across," Dutchcot said. "He's a little quicker than most heavyweights, and he has great balance. He needs to believe in himself and open an attack. If he goes out and takes people down, he has a real good chance to be a state champion."
"My coach made me write down three goals at the beginning of the season," Hixson said, "and I look at them every day before I go out. The third most important goal is win districts. The second most important is to win a regional title. The most important is a state title. If I want to achieve that, I have to work harder than everybody else."

During the nonconference season, Northwestern has shown it can compete, fight, and is very fun to watch. However, the Wildcats have been inconsistent with their effort defensively their chemistry offensively is still a work in progress. One thing for certain about this Northwestern basketball team is it has improved since the first game, and the players are getting better.
Alex Olah has shown glimpses of great things to come in his future as a Northwestern Wildcat. I even refer to Olah as "Baby Eschmeyer." You can't teach size, but Olah has the attributes and skill set his game that the coaching staff can enhance and help mold. Olah has potential of being a dominant center in the Big Ten as Evan Eschmeyer was.
During the last two weeks, I've written how Northwestern needed an inside presence. Against Stanford, the Romanian answered my prayers, playing his best game as a Wildcat with 16 points, but also competing as well with the Cardinals on the defensive end. Reggie Hearn who poured in 18 points injured his ankle during the contest. Tre Demps played well scoring 12 points in the second half, but the Wildcats fell short to Stanford 70-68 after trailing by 18 points.
Demps has really made me proud because I totally understand a guy who has good one-on-one ability trying to find himself in Coach Carmody's system. Throughout the summer and during pre-season, the advice I would give Demps is to be confident with his work ethic and allow things to come to him on the court. Sometimes as a player, results of your hard work won't show due to forcing the issue on the court. Tre has now settled into his comfort zone, taken advantage of the opportunities presented in the offense, and once the basketball started falling, his confidence grew. Due to Demps' patience, his minutes on the court as well as all the work he puts into his game will show a lot more.
Sunday, Brown University from the Ivy League came into Evanston, Illinois where Northwestern made it rain from three-point land, shooting 54.2 percent. The Wildcats had a balanced attack and this game wasn't close at all. Winning 63-42 Dave Sobolewski led all scores with 14 points and 8 assist. Jared Swopshire, "Mr. Stat Sheet Filler," finished the game with eight points, four assist and rebounds, one block, and two steals. I love Swopshire's game when he comes to play. He does the little things that helps a team win.
During halftime of the Brown game, I got a chance to wear my No. 25 jersey in front of the Northwestern fans at Welsh-Ryan Arena, shooting against Tim Doyle in a three-point contest. I ended up shooting hitting four shots and Doyle ended up winning with eight. It's a little different shooting off a rack, but fun nevertheless. Doyle and I were teammates for a year and that's probably the first shooting drill Tim has won. Oh well, it's the season of giving!
Happy Holidays to everyone. Enjoy time with your family, friends, and loved ones.

This season, a self-guided tour of some of Ohio's fantastic public gardens may be just what you need for some DIY motivation. The Buckeye State has no shortage of greenspace, and with a visit to one — or several — of these spots, you're bound to come away with inspiration for reviving and improving your garden, whether you find an assortment of ideas or choose a specific garden to serve as your muse.
Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens — unquestionably one of the region's most beautiful plots of land — is a great place to start your tour. Built in the early 20th century for the family of Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company founder Frank Seiberling, the Akron estate is surrounded by magnificent gardens. Highlights of the grounds include the walled English garden, Gertrude Seiberling's favorite refuge; the grape arbor, located just outside the historic Corbin Conservatory; the seasonal great garden; and the Japanese Garden, which will reopen June 30 after final touches are put on the restoration project that returned the tranquil space to its original 1916 design. Self-guided and docent-guided tours of the gardens and Tudor-Revival Manor House are available.
While you're in Northeast Ohio, make a visit to the Cleveland Botanical Garden, located in the lively University Circle neighborhood. This is a great garden for those with an interest in exotic plant species, and stepping inside the 18,000-square-foot Glasshouse is akin to visiting a faraway land. The conservatory is home to gardens that replicate the desert of Madagascar and the rainforest of Costa Rica, as well as more than 350 species of exotic plants and more than 50 species of butterflies, insects, reptiles and birds. Cleveland Botanical Garden is also home to the Hershey Children's Garden — complete with a wildflower meadow, a tree house, a maze and butterfly shelters — and topiary, herb, rose and woodland gardens.
For garden inspiration in northwest Ohio, head to Schedel Arboretum & Gardens in Elmore, for a tour of the Japanese, rose, perennial and kitchen gardens. This property, originally owned by Elmore founder Israel Harrington, was purchased in 1969 by Joe Schedel, who created the beautiful gardens. The gates were opened to the public in 1991 after the grounds were restored and modernized, and today, guests can spend an entire afternoon strolling the gardens; guided tours of the gardens and Manor House are also available. Built in 1882, the mansion served as the centerpiece of the original garden design, and is furnished with a collection of antiques, custom furniture and rare artworks. Walking tour brochures and maps are available for self-guided tours; guided tours are available by appointment.
Head to the Toledo Botanical Garden and discover shade, hosta, azalea and rhododendron, aquatic, rose, herb and vegetable gardens. A highlight of the Toledo Botanical Garden is the dahlia garden, home to 50 varieties of the magnificent bloom. Visitors may stroll through the plots at their leisure or take a guided tour.
In Central Ohio, it's hard to choose a reigning green space, as both Dawes Arboretum and Franklin Park Conservatory offer superlative collections.
At Newark's Dawes Arboretum, a 1,800-acre park founded in 1929, you'll find more than 15,000 plant species. The all-seasons garden and azalea garden will provide inspiration for your own yard, while the collection of more than 100 bonsai trees and the conifer glen, home to 14 acres of miniature, dwarf and full-size conifers, provide a touch of whimsy. Make sure to check out the view from the 36-foot-tall outlook tower, where you'll get a tree's-eye view of the 2,040-foot-long hedge lettering of "Dawes Arboretum." Guided tours, which include the Daweswood House Museum, are offered on weekends.
Franklin Park Conservatory in Columbus, built in 1895, is home to 400 plant species and a diverse array of climates, which you can experience in the Himalayan Mountain, Tropical Rainforest and Pacific Island biomes. The Palm house, located in the oldest section of the Conservatory, houses 43 species of palms from around the globe. Make sure to see the ficus lyrata, also known as the fiddle-leaf fig, one of the original palms planted in the Palm House.
Finally, to round out your tour of Ohio's most fascinating public gardens, take a trip to southwest Ohio's Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park in Hamilton. Not simply a garden, Pyramid Hill is an outdoor museum that combines the beauty of manmade artwork with the beauty of nature. Guests can explore 265 acres of rolling meadows, forests, gardens and trails at their leisure.

Do Cigarette Ads Make Girls Smoke?toddler-times
Teenage girls may be prime targets for tobacco company advertising. And for good reason–the ads seem to work.
The medical journal Pediatrics conducted a telephone survey of the same group of over 1,000 teens five times between 2003 & 2008. Initially, the children were between 10 and 13 years old. Each year, the kids were quizzed on if they had a favorite cigarette ad. The boys' response was pretty much the same throughout all five surveys. The number of girls who could cite a fave was pretty stable as well–until the fifth and final study in 2008. The percentage of girls who had a preferred ad jumped 10% to 44%. So what happened in that last year?
Camel #9 happened. The pink-boxed smokes were supposedly marketed to adult women. R.J. Reynolds, manufacturer of the cigarettes, placed ads in Glamour and Vogue with promotional giveaways. The freebies? Flavored lip balm, purses and cell phone jewelry–tchotchkes made in tween heaven. The fifth survey showed the results of all their hard work. The number of girls who said that Camel was their favorite ad popped up to 21%–from a measly 10-13% in earlier years. And yes, the kids who had a favored cig ad were far more likely to smoke – 50% more as it turns out.
No surprise that the manufacturer pooh-poohs the notion that they would target the young. Sure, they abandoned print advertising in 2008, but in-store and online promotions–avenues clearly accessible to teens– still receive a chunk of their ad dollars.
Study author John Pierce, a professor of family and preventive medicine and director of the Cancer Prevention and Control Program at the Moores Cancer Center at the University of California, was far from optimistic when asked what parents can do to counter the effect of the ads and blames the lure of the forbidden fruit:
"Parents can try to focus on the issue and pay attention to it, but sometimes the adult admonishing something can be a green light for a teenager. Unfortunately, we don't have easy prevention strategies for parents to use."
Sigh. As a former chain smoker who started in her teens ("Newport: Cool and refreshing as a summer shower…"), this kills me. What can we do? Any ideas out there?

For the fourth time in the last nine months, the troubled Chester County SPCA is looking for a new executive director.
Russell "Wolf" Harper, cofounder of Justice Rescue, on Wednesday announced that he was out as interim executive director of the agency, which takes in about 5,000 stray animals a year from Chester and Delaware Counties.
Pat Biswanger, board president, said that Harper's 90-day contract was nearing its end, but she would not say why the board terminated the contract before it expired.

In another strange move in what has been a very much against the grain season as far as roster moves are concerned, the Cleveland Indians have traded a player to be named later to the Arizona Diamondbacks for Jason Kubel. Indians fans remember Kubel as a part time outfielder and DH for the Twins from 2004 through 2011. In 2012, Kubel had a stand out season (30 home runs and 90 RBI) in his first year of a two year $15 million contract. This year, however, he has struggled through 89 games, batting just .220 with five home runs on the year.
The Indians largely signed Kubel to replace Ryan Raburn during the next two series, against Detroit and Baltimore. These are the biggest series left in the season for the Tribe and they will face no left handed starters (against whom he has batted just .162). Kubel will be able to play right field and DH, providing the Indians with more flexibility than Jason Giambi can offer from the bench and will likely be used extensively until Raburn's return. In the active lineup, he should replace Drew Stubbs as an every day player, with the Indians forgoing defense and base running skills for a little extra offensive power. Of course, the trouble with this logic is that Stubbs has out slugged Kubel by 50 points so far this year.
There is little risk in adding Kubel as the Diamondbacks are paying the vast majority of his salary for the rest of the season. While the minor leaguer to be exchanged has not been named yet, it can be assumed it will be a player the Indians have deemed expendable , so there is little cost there. The Indians will have to pay the million dollar buy out if they release him at the end of the season, but will also have the right to accept his $7.5 million team option for 2014.
Matt Carson will likely be the odd man out when Kubel is added to the 25 man roster to tomorrow's game two against Detroit. If the Indians would like to see Carson in further action (I can't imagine why they would) they can bring him up in ten days with no further cost.
9/1 Update:
It turns out the PTBNL in this deal was not a low level minor leaguer with no Major League future, but was in fact, Matt Langwell, a right handed starter in Columbus who has already made an appearance with the Indians bullpen this year. While he is likely never to an All-Star or even much of a Major League starter, it seems a very steep price to pay for a one month rental of a player that was going to be released anyway. Unless Kubel pulls an amazing turn around and provides the Indians with the power they have been lacking since Mark Reynolds stopped hitting home runs in June or the Indians intend on using his 2014 option, this looks like a very poor move overall.
If there is any upside in Langwell leaving, it will be that they no longer have to protect a player that doesn't project very well and can use the innings he would have gotten in AAA next year to further develop a player with a higher ceiling like Cody Anderson.

"Right now I'm working with Kenny Holland and I just shut my mouth and listen," he said. "I remember Brett Hull did a lot of talking in his first year as GM and he's not a GM anymore."
Chelios said he might become a coach. "I think coaching would suit me," he said. "That's basically what I've been doing in Grand Rapids lately."

Altosid is a larvicide that targets and kills mosquitoes in the larval stages of their development in water. Altosid larvicide contains the industry's first and last formula of (S)-Methropene an insect growth regulator (IGR). It disrupts the normal growth pattern of immature mosquitoes and prevents them from becoming breeding, biting adults that can now spread disease.
Altosid larvicide helps you proactively prevent future mosquito in the stations, instead of merely reacting to them with an adulticide. To be effective and adulticide must be released into the environment, or mosquitoes can come in contact with it. Altosid larvicide on the other hand, works in water and affects mosquito larvae on contact or through ingestion. Altosid products are environments that a sound and have been given the mosquito control industries lowest toxicity rating. Altosid naturally degrades in the environment and will not adversely affect humans, fish, waterfowl, mammals were beneficial insects.
Applied in hard to treat situations, Altosid 30 day Briquets can be hand applied by operators on foot or in moving vehicles, saving you time and money.
Altosid XR-Briquets offer up 250 days of control. They require no expensive application equipment, and can be used for pretreatment before the wet season. That means you're better able to treat hard to access or outlying areas, and can eliminate the additional costs associated with travel and multiple retreatments.
Versatile enough for any program Altosid liquid larvicide is an effective and flexible formulation that fits any mosquito control program. Altosid liquid larvicide and Altosid liquid larvicide concentrate offer superior control and a wide range of habitats and application areas, including temporary or floodwater breeding areas and irrigated cropland.
Altosid Pro-G kills mosquitoes before they hatch and is simple and easy to use. Simply follow the directions and put the directed amount of granules in areas or in water where mosquitoes may breed. One container can treat over 5,000 square feet or up to 20,183 gallons of water. Altosid Pro-G will last up to 30 days.
Zoecon® Altosid® Pro-G Insect Growth Regulator (Altosid® Pro-G) releases effective levels of ALTOSID® insect growth regulator for up to 30 days after application. Applications should be continued throughout the entire season to maintain adequate control. Treated larvae continue to develop normally to the pupal stage where they die.
Apply Altosid® Pro-G uniformly and repeat application as necessary. Measure and then sprinkle the appropriate amount of Altosid® Pro-G evenly over the surface of the water to be treated in order to control mosquitoes before they become breeding, biting adults. Measure the surface area of the water and follow the table below for the appropriate amount of product to use. Emptying or discarding small containers that are holding water will ensure the best results. In instances where small containers cannot be emptied or discarded and for locations such as flower pots, old tires, urns, etc. use approximately 80 granules for every gallon of water.
Amount of Product per Treatment Area (surface area-less than 2 ft. deep of water)=
NOTE: ALTOSID® insect growth regulator has no effect on mosquitoes which have reached the pupal or adult stage prior to treatment.
APPLICATION TIME Apply Altosid® Pro-G at any stage of larval mosquito development. Granules may be applied prior to flooding (i.e., "pre-hatch" or "pre-flood") in areas which flood intermittently. In such areas, one application of Altosid® Pro-G can prevent adult mosquito emergence from several subsequent floodings. The actual length of control depends on the duration and frequency of flooding events.
Along with mosquito larvicides, ePestSolutions also offers a wide range of mosquito control products such as mosquito fogger, mosquito sprayer, mosquito repellents, mosquito insecticides and many more.

Plans for Virginia Intermont College to merge with a large Florida university have collapsed, leaving the struggling Baptist-affiliated school "financially distressed," its president said.
Earlier this year the Bristol, Va., college said it had initiated discussions to merge in July with Webber International University, based in Babson Park. Fla. But Virginia Intermont president Clorisa Phillips announced in a statement April 15 that the two schools "have reached the joint and difficult conclusion that we do not have a viable model for merger."
Within hours of the announcement, VI's faculty overwhelmingly voted to declare no confidence in Philllips, the Bristol Herald Courier reported.
Since then the school has launched a "teach out plan," a legally recognized agreement to allow students to complete their academic programs, typically by transferring to other schools. Administrators also announced they will shut down all sports teams — including VI's nationally recognized equestrian competition team, which in April won its fourth national championship.
VI's primary accrediting agency had already placed it on probation because of financial instability, but the agency has agreed to leave the school's accreditation in place until July 1, which will allow students to complete the current semester and a summer session which concludes June 27.
VI has struggled with financial viability since at least 2007. Last fall the school reported 378 students, a 35 percent enrollment decline since 2010.
In her statement, Phillips said the school's "financial distress" has been apparent for some time, but "it became significantly worse about two weeks ago due to a slowdown in the receipt of financial aid funds. The past two weeks have been almost unbearably hard for many of us and I am deeply grateful to our staff who have to manage these problems daily."
She added administrators and trustees "are moving with haste to guarantee accredited options for students. We will also immediately call faculty and staff together to discuss plans for operating over the coming months. Of primary importance is that students, faculty and staff who do not want to deal with uncertainty have very clear information so that they can understand their options and can make plans."
Virginia Intermont was founded in 1884 by a Baptist minister to offer higher education to women. The school, now co-ed, has related to the Baptist General Association of Virginia for most of its existence.
Currently the BGAV nominates a portion of VI's board of trustees and includes the school in its budget. This year the allocation is $1,000.

READINGTON TWP. — Karl Steiner, 22, of Asbury was charged on Feb. 22 with drunken and careless driving, refusal to submit to breath-alcohol testing, leaving the scene of an accident and failure to report an accident and to maintain lane control.
Shortly before 2 a.m., police received a report of an erratic driver in a black BMW on Route 523 southbound, near Whitehouse Station. Steiner was stopped by Patrolman Peter Serrone on Nelson Street, near Route 523.
Police said that a short time earlier, a township resident reported that the car had apparently hit a curb at the intersection of routes 22 and 523. Police said that the car had undercarriage damage.
Steiner was later released.
