Originally published at: http://www.howtogeek.com/182825/why-you-should-get-an-xbox-360-controller-for-pc-gaming/
The Xbox 360 controller has become the gold standard for PC gaming. Yes, the specific type of controller is important — you don't want another brand of controller or even an Xbox One controller.
If you already own a PS3 controller, that's just as good with Motionjoy. Motionjoy allows you to use your PS3 controller on your PC and you can emulate an Xbox 360 controller.
While you touched on XInput (and yes, it is simpler to code for, it allows on the fly plugging, and the controls are all mapped explicitly by name - you always know which one is the red button, for example), there is one problem with XBox pads on PC games that don't explicitly support it.
The triggers.
XBox game pads map the analog triggers to a SINGLE axis for DirectInput games. For some games, this is just fine: older racing games may expect to see a single axis for brake and throttle, for example. However, most of the games I use my game pad with require that I be able to press the left and right trigger at the same time.
So one thing you should have in your arsenal is a program like Xpadder. The idea is pretty simple: Xpadder lets you map your joystick buttons to keypresses. This makes it a lot easier to play racing games like Trackmania, for example, which don't have support for Xinput.
I've also found Xpadder great for playing older games like the classic Tomb Raider games, which were written when joysticks had 3 axes and 2 buttons - if you were lucky.
I'm holding out for the Steam controller.
A few reasons to consider a wireless Xbox 360 controller instead of a wired controller
On the flip side, if you're a solo gamer, the wired controller has no batteries to change and no interference issues. The wireless receiver is also notoriously unstable on some systems. Then there's the cost... a wired controller can be had for around $20-30. The official wireless one is a tad more pricey.
It's also worth nothing that third-party XBox 360 controllers generally work on the PC as well. The PC usually can't tell the difference between a Microsoft-branded controller and something like a Razer.
Oh, and I think the cords on the wired controllers are 10' long. That's plenty long for someone using an actual computer, even for 2 people to play together.
Also, some of the best controllers, and all the competition controllers, are wired. Wireless is nice for convenience, but you can't beat a wired controller for stability and responsiveness.
I typically dont play games that require a controller on the PC. However, every once in while I play a game that was obviously designed for a controller, such as a port from a console. Many years ago I bought a Logitech controller, which was hit-or-miss with some games. From the games I have seen, most of them support the 360 controller out of the box, while the Logitech controller required lots of fiddling to get it to work. Sometimes it didnt work at all. I ended up buying a wireless 360 controller for the PC and that made life much easier.
Also important to note that you should probably get the 'official' XBOX controller and/or accessories (wireless receiver).Years ago I purchased a cheap wireless receiver from some online vendor (can't recall which one) and, although it said XBOX360 on it, it wasn't an official one and I had a bunch of issues getting it to work.
As wilsontp mentionned, a wireless one can have interference issues.I ended up purchasing a wired Razer model (2, actually... 2 different models). They both had 10' wires. Enough for my computer and living room computer (Hurray! for Steam Stream).No more interference, no more battery to recharge or change.
And if 10' isn't enough, a usb extender cable will work just fine.
Oh and as something to note the play and charge cable for the controllers doesn't let it work on PC's. You need a wired controller. This because even though your using a cable, it still uses wireless transmissions when plugged in.
I use a 3rd Party controller and for most games it works fine. The only game it doesn't work in is Rainbow Six Vegas 2.

The evening after she announced on the Today show that she'll undergo a double mastectomy to treat her breast cancer, E! host Giuliana Rancic went back to work, covering the celebrity arrivals at the N.Y.C. premiere of In the Land of Blood and Honey.
Among the famous faces: Angelina Jolie, whom Rancic interviewed about the film (it's Jolie's directorial and screenwriter debut).
It's obviously work as normal for Rancic, who told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS FM 102.7 show Tuesday that, "I'll be on E! News Monday and then I'll be out of your hair for two weeks."
Also on Tuesday, she and husband Bill Rancic continued to put on a united front, chatting candidly with Wendy Williams about the ordeal on her talk show.
Pacific Coast News
"Listen, I love my girls [but] I'm gonna feel more like a woman when this is all done," said Giuliana. "I think scars are beautiful. I think scars tell a story."
"A badge of courage," added her husband.
As for the reconstruction – which Rancic said she'd undergo at the same time as the mastectomy – her husband is equally supportive.
"They've come a long way," he said of the procedures. "We've seen a lot of before and after and it's remarkable."
"They might come out looking even hotter," joked Giuliana. "You gotta have fun with this. We find the humor in everything. Bill helped pick 'em out. I'm like, Bill, that big? Really?"

is a viral infectious disease that infects the upper respiratory system. It is also known as
acute viral rhinopharyngitis
, or
acute coryza
. Being the most common infectious disease in humans, the cold is mainly caused by coronaviruses or rhinoviruses.
The human body can never build up resistance to all the viruses that can cause the common cold. That is why colds are so common and recurring. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) kindergarten children get an average of 12 colds per year, compared to adolescents and adults who catch about seven per year.
Experts say that going out when it is cold does not have any effect on the risk of catching a cold or spreading one. Antibiotics do not cure a cold or speed up recovery.
According to Medilexicon's
medical dictionary
, a common cold virus is
"any of the numerous strains of virus etiologically associated with the common cold, chiefly the rhinoviruses, but also strains of adenovirus, coxsackievirus, echovirus, and parainfluenza virus."
What are the signs and symptoms of a cold?
A symptom is something the patient feels or reports, while a sign is something other people, including a doctor may detect. Pain could be an example of a symptom, while a rash could be a sign.
The body reacting to the cold virus is mainly what brings about the symptoms. A release of chemicals is triggered, making the blood vessels leak, causing the mucous glands to work harder. The most common symptoms of a cold are:
Dry throat
Sore throat
Mild fever
Hoarse voice
Blocked nose
Mild headache
The rarer symptoms are:
Muscle aches
Pink eye
Reduction in appetite
Extreme exhaustion
Approximately 25% of people do not suffer any symptoms when infected with the cold virus; perhaps because their immune system reacts differently to the virus. Sometimes bacteria can infect the ears or sinuses - this is known as a secondary bacterial infection - and can be treated with antibiotics.
What causes a cold?
The common cold can be caused by more than 200 different viruses. Up to 50% of colds are caused by rhinoviruses, other cold causing viruses are:
Human parainfluenza virus
Coronavriuses adenovirus
Human respiratory syncytial virus
When the viruses manage to overpower the body's immune system infection occurs. The first line of defense is mucus, which is produced in the nose and throat by the mucus glands. This mucus traps anything inhaled, such as dust, viruses and bacteria. Mucus is a slippery fluid that the membranes of the nose, mouth, throat and vagina produce.
When the mucus is penetrated by the virus which then enters a cell, the virus takes control of the element of the cell which makes protein. It uses this element to manufacture more viruses, these viruses then attack surrounding cells.
Are there any complications of the common cold?
Being infected with the common cold can lead to the following complications:
Acute Bronchitis
- This is when the bronchi in the lungs are inflamed as a result of either a bacterial or viral infection. Antibiotics can only be used to treat this if the infection is bacterial; if it is viral it is common just to treat the symptoms until the infection goes away with time. A sample of the sputum may be taken and examined under a microscope to determine what the levels of bacteria are. Symptoms include wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing and sputum.
- Again this is a condition where the lungs are inflamed, but this time is due to the alveoli filling with fluid. Pneumonia can be caused by bacteria or viruses. However, the common cold virus does not cause pneumonia. If pneumonia occurred as a complication of a cold the most likely pathogen would be bacterial. The patient will be prescribed antibiotics. Symptoms include chest pain, cough, an elevated body temperature, and breathing difficulties.
Acute Bacterial Sinusitis
- This is when bacteria infect the paranasal sinuses. Nasal and oral decongestants can be used as treatment; however antibiotics are required both to treat the condition and to prevent further infection which could lead to other conditions such as bacterial meningitis. Symptoms include headache, aching of the sinuses and nasal discharge.
Other complications that the common cold can lead to are:
Otitis media
Strep throat
People with the following conditions can be vulnerable to the common cold and should take measures to avoid catching it as it can worsen their condition:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- This includes both emphysema and chronic bronchitis. The Common Cold can exacerbate emphysema or chronic bronchitis symptoms, leading to increased coughing and shortness of breath. Sometimes a bacterial infection can occur which can lead to fever, and the patient will be prescribed antibiotics.
- Asthma attacks can be caused by a cold, especially in children.
How can a cold be prevented?
As there are so many cold causing viruses, it has been difficult for scientists to develop a vaccine. However there are some precautions that can be taken to help avoid catching the common cold, these are:
Avoid close contact with someone infected with a cold.
Eat lots of vitamin-rich fruit and vegetables regularly so that your immune system remains strong.
When sneezing or coughing make sure it is done into a tissue. Discard the tissue carefully and wash your hands.
If you sneeze into your hands make sure you wash them with soap and water immediately.
If you have no tissues or a handkerchief cough into the inside (crook) of your elbow rather than your hands.
Wash your hands regularly; cold viruses can be transmitted from one person to another by touch.
Keep surfaces in your home clean - especially in the kitchen or bathroom.
Avoid touching your face especially your nose and mouth.
How is a cold treated?
Unfortunately, both antibiotics and antiviral medications are ineffective against most viruses that cause the common cold. A cold normally lasts up to ten days; however some symptoms do stay as long as three weeks. Although there is no real way of treating or curing the common cold, the following measures may help ease the symptoms:
Drink plenty of fluids and keep well hydrated, being dehydrated when infected with a cold can make you feel worse.
Get plenty of bed rest, it is important to get as much sleep/rest as possible when infected as the body's immune system is fighting off the virus.
Take aspirin, paracetamol or ibuprofen to relieve headache or fever. Do not give aspirin to children under the age of 16.
Some people find that inhaling steam helps ease the symptoms of nasal congestion.
What is the difference between a cold and flu?
As symptoms can sometimes be quite similar, it may be difficult to know whether you have the flu or a bad cold. Generally, flu symptoms are felt sooner than cold symptoms. Flu symptoms are also more intense. People with the flu feel weak and tired for up to two or three weeks. As the fever comes and goes they will have periods of chills and sweats (cold sweats). Their muscles will ache, and they will have a runny or bunged-up nose, headache and sore throat.
Below is a list of symptoms that can or cannot be experienced when being infected with the common cold or flu:
Flu symptoms
- common flu symptom, can be quite severe.
Tiredness and weakness
- common and can last a few weeks.
Extreme tiredness
- common early on, and can be severe.
Aches and pains
- yes and usually severe.
- yes ranging from 39⁰C/102⁰F to 40⁰C/104⁰F
- occasionally
Stuffed up / runny nose
- quite common.
- quite typical of flu, can be harsh.
Dry/Sore Throat
- frequent.
Treatment is often with antivirals. Immunization (flu shot, or flu mist) is available to aid in prevention. Please see "
What is Flu? What is Influenza? What are the Symptoms of Flu?
" for further information.
Cold Symptoms
- uncommon, but possible.
Tiredness and weakness
- occasionally, but milder than with flu.
Extreme tiredness
- uncommon.
Aches and pains
- much milder than with flu.
- unusual.
- a common cold symptom
Stuffed up/runny nose
- quite common.
- occasionally, but not as severe as with flu.
Dry/Sore Throat
- common
Treatment only provides temporary relief of symptoms, and good hygiene is the best prevention.

President calls negotiators back from Havana
The President of Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos, ordered the team of Government negotiators in the peace process with Farc to return to the country immediately after the guerrilla group announced it will 'pause' to analyze the referendum bill handed to Congress for approval; the referendum would eventually endorse the talks and take place on the same day as the elections.
"I have made the decision to call negotiators back immediately so we can evaluate the reach of this announcement, the reach of Farc's behavior towards initiatives that are only meant to accelerate a solution to this conflict," Mr. Santos said from the Catam military base in Bogotá.
The President also said that talks can resume whenever the Government considers it appropriate, but made it clear that "in this process, the one who can call for a pause and set conditions is not Farc." He also said he analyzed things very carefully before deciding to call negotiators back.

It was a blast, but turn down the music
Thank you to the city of Woodinville, JB Lawn and all the affiliates who always make the Fourth of July celebration so festive. Our family looks forward to the "lawn party" and the fireworks show. It was fabulous as usual. What we don't look forward to is the music volume. Our favorite moments were when the band silenced and we could talk and make memories with friends and family. Please save the volume for the fireworks at the end and have great music. But give the community the freedom to choose. Sit close if you like loud music; sit on the outskirts if you don't. Whether we like your music or not is unimportant. Keep up the good work but lose the speakers. Love the fireworks ‹ hate the noise.
Steve and Pam Schmool, Woodinville

And do you know what a Williamsburg Va. rifle is costing today? The last time I was there (15 years ago) a period built rifle built by Williamsburg's craftsmen fetch over $10 K and there was a 2 year wait.

I've been down a few times in the last couple of years. I think the costs will depend a lot on what you want, but I'd be surpirsed if the price was so low, and the wait so short.
There are other traditional makers that could do an amazing job sooner and a whole lot cheaper. A whole lot of what you're paying for there isn't the rifle/gun.

$10K does not surprise me. The last time I tried to visit there you had to pay to park, pay to get in, etc. That was of course about 12 years ago.

$10K does not surprise me. The last time I tried to visit there you had to pay to park, pay to get in, etc. That was of course about 12 years ago.
Well, actually you don't have to pay to park OR enter even the "colonial" parts of Williamsburg, VA. You do have to pay to participate in the historical education and re-enactment activities, and to enter the restored buildings which are run and maintained by Colonial Williamsburg. Considering the costs associated with the restoration work they do, to the level of authenticity they require, and then all that enormous staff of interpreters, reenactors, historians, and artisans (not to mention all the support staff and management required) I don't know how they do it so cheaply.
But, regarding the rifles or guns they make and sell, a big part of what you're paying for is the fact that your weapon was made THERE, but the craftsmen employed by C.W., in their shops, while they're doing their real job of educating and demonstrating. If you want a very beautiful historically accurate flintlock fowler or rifle, you can commission same from others who are equally skilled. If you're paying $10K or $15K to have a C.W. gun made, you're paying for the provenance.

Hey Sam, just curious, who else is making rifles with hand forged, hand rifled barrels? I wish my disposable income would allow me to afford this, but I am still curious. :D
April 21, 2012, 08:33 AM
Ehhh...ok, that I don't know. There are great craftsmen out there, for sure, but that's a special thing.
April 21, 2012, 04:12 PM
The last time I was there I spent half of the day and all of my wife's patience at the gun shop. Absolute authenticity, there was not even any electricity in the shop.
April 21, 2012, 04:49 PM
I am there everyday. Want me to ask around for something?

April 21, 2012, 05:35 PM
The last time I talked to the gunsmith about a rifle(10 years ago) no hand forged barrels were being used. They do it in the shop for show. He said civil liability issues had forced them to use blanks. Everything else is still hand crafted down to the screws. The price then for a plain rifle was $10,000 with a three year wait. There are superb makers out there who are cheaper and carry a name easily recognized if that is what you are looking for. I would love to have another Hershel House rifle.
April 21, 2012, 06:27 PM
Lawyers and liability have stripped us again of our heritage.
April 22, 2012, 02:27 PM
I was there this past September. The gunshop was open but no work was being done. I do not think they have a full time shop right now, just docents. Clay Smith http://claysmithguns.com/index.htm was the last full time smith, to my knowledge. Hope this is correct and helps.
Your Servant & ect.,
April 24, 2012, 06:55 AM
You might be able to find someone to make a hand forged barrel, but I highly doubt it. If you did, it would be very expensive. There are a few guys in my general area that have hand rifling machines. So that would be easier to get.
There are some outstanding builders out there, but if you were some big investment banker you would get funny looks if you told your buddies that rifle over the mantle was built by Jim Chambers. On the other hand, they would be impressed with the name Williamsburg.

The CW gunsmith I just talked to said they are indeed hand forged, they cost about $20,000 and up, and there is about an eight or nine year wait right now.
They take them about 4-6 months to make a rifle. They will make any caliber you want.

Few college basketball analysts saw this coming. Larry Brown, a spry 73, has quickly rewired the Southern Methodist University program, turning the Mustangs from punch-line to probable NCAA Tournament participant.
"What he's done is remarkable," former College of Charleston and Georgia Tech head coach Bobby Cremins said. "Absolutely remarkable."
John Kresse agrees.
"Larry Brown is one of the great builders of teams, both in college and in the NBA," said Kresse, who led the College of Charleston to four NCAA Tournament trips and three NIT bids from 1994-2002.
At 20-6 overall and 9-4 in the American Athletic Conference in Brown's second year as head coach, SMU was in third place behind Cincinnati (12-1) and Louisville (11-2) going into Wednesday night's home game against Houston.
SMU was No. 23 in the Associated Press poll last week before a loss at Temple.
Cremins, 66, and Kresse, 70, are youngsters compared to Brown, their fellow New Yorker.
So . Any chance of a comeback?
Cremins: Yes, maybe.
Kresse: No, emphatically.
"Larry Brown has definitely caught my attention," Cremins said. "He really has."
Cremins, retired from coaching for the last two seasons, said the door to a return is now "open a crack."
"It would have to be something really special," said Cremins, who lives in Hilton Head. "But Larry has inspired me."
'Kid' Cremins
Kresse is more than content to continue in his role as Special Assistant to College of Charleston Athletic Director Joe Hull while dabbling in broadcasting.
"My 38 years in the game of basketball were plenty. But I'm fascinated by the John McKissicks," Kresse said, referring to the 87-year-old Summerville High School football coach still adding to his national record for victories.
SMU hasn't been to the NCAA Tournament since 1993. But people who laughed when Brown first appeared on the Dallas campus are not laughing now. In the latest bracketology updates, ESPN's Joe Lunardi projects SMU has a No. 10 NCAA Tournament seed. Jerry Palm of CBS Sports has the Mustangs squeezing in as a No. 11 seed.
Just another stop for Brown, the ultimate basketball vagabond.
He has coached nine NBA teams and three college teams since 1979.
He won the 1988 NCAA title at Kansas and the 2004 NBA championship with the Detroit Pistons (Brown brought the New York Knicks to train at the College of Charleston when Kresse was the Cougars' head coach).
"I think this is going to make people like (Syracuse head coach) Jim Boeheim, (Duke head coach) Mike Krzyzewski and (San Diego State head coach) Steve Fisher think about sticking around longer," Cremins said. "Normally, the closer you get to 70, that's when you really think about retiring. But now with Larry doing what he's doing, some guys might try and go a little bit longer."
Boeheim is 69, Krzyzewski 67 and Fisher 68 - all older than Bobby "The Kid" Cremins.
Cremins owns a 570-367 record as a head coach. The former South Carolina Gamecocks player led Georgia Tech to three ACC titles and the 1990 Final Four.
Stress not for Kresse
Cremins was 106-60 at the College of Charleston from 2006-2012, but left 20 games into his sixth season for health reasons. Cremins said he is fine now, except for the knee replacement surgery scheduled for just after the basketball season. He is living in Hilton Head and working as a TV analyst for ESPN's Full Court package, which included duty Tuesday night in Blacksburg for Virginia's win at Virginia Tech.
Cremins attended College of Charleston's victory over Drexel last week and plans to be at TD Arena for Senior Night on March 1.
Kresse will be there, too, as the College of Charleston celebrates the 20th anniversary of its first NCAA Tournament berth.
Larry Brown?
He'll be preparing for a crucial home game against Central Florida.
"Larry Brown is one of the great teachers of the ABCs of basketball," Kresse said. "His teams are just very sound fundamentally. He knows the game and feels the game."
So is Kresse.
But the man whose name is on the court at TD Arena will return to coaching only if college basketball comes up with a new job title.
"I'd love to be a practice coach," Kresse said, "but I'd hate the recruiting and the pressures of the games. You have to recruit, you have to win and the pressure and stress of having to win as many games as possible is something I do not miss."
Bobby Cremins, seven years younger than Larry Brown, isn't so sure.

President Barack Obama will be in Egypt Thursday for a highly-publicized address to the Muslim world. Wednesday, he landed in Saudi Arabia about the same time Osama bin Laden was releasing a new message about the U.S.
The president stepped out of Air Force One into the 108 degree Saudi Arabia heat Wednesday morning, and was greeted royally by King Abdullah-- the keeper of Islam's most holy mosques.
"I also want to express my best wishes to the friendly American people who are represented by a distinguished man that deserves to be in this position," he said.
CBN News Terror Analyst Erick Stakelbeck has more after Jennifer Wishon's report.
Saudi Arabia is a stopover on the president's route to Cairo, Egypt where he'll deliver his speech Thursday.
But Obama was expected to use the time to continue negotiations with the king over the future of some 100 Yemeni detainees locked up at Guantanamo Bay.
The president wants them sent to terrorist rehabilitation centers on Saudi soil.
In Cairo, Egyptians are already decorating for the president's visit. At Cairo University, where the president will speak, exams have been postponed and security heightened. At the old market, t-shirts that read "Obama New Tutankhamon of the World," hang on merchant's stands.
The president is expected to tell Muslims democracy and the freedoms of speech and religion are universal principles they too can embrace.
As President Obama began his goodwill tour, Osama bin Laden released an audio tape saying the president fanned hatred for the U.S. when he ordered Pakistan to crack down on Taliban militants in the Swat Valley along the Afghan border.
CBN News Terrorism Analyst Erick Stakelbeck says it's evidence that while Obama's speech may win him support with mainstream Muslims, radical leaders view it as a sign of weakness.
"Among al Qaeda it doesn't matter what President Obama does really," he said. "At the end of the day whether the president is a Republican, a Democrat, Liberal or Conservative at the end of the day, to the radicals he's just another infidel."
In a separate message accompanied by pictures of the president visiting the wailing wall in Jerusalem, bin Laden's number two lieutenant Egyptian eye-man al-Zawaheri recently called Obama a "criminal" and said the speech will do nothing to change the "bloody messages" the U.S. military sends through the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

For a long time, I have enjoyed going to museums and galleries to look at art. I suppose this became a favorite pastime when my wife, Gloria Ruff, and I lived in Rome, Italy during the 1970s. I was teaching sixth grade at the Notre Dame International School run by the Brothers of the Holy Cross. My wife was studying drawing, sculpture, and art history at The American College of Rome, and I often tagged along on field trips, which got us into some of the most beautiful museums, churches, and historical sites in all of Italy.

By now it is a trope: city girl trades her high heels and Blackberry for a ramshackle farmhouse, and in tending gardens and chickens, she realizes what is truly important. Yawn. That is not my story. That bucolic vision leaves out some bits, like the way locusts can descend and take out a whole crop, or the fact that chickens will turn on each other, leaving those at the bottom of the pecking order battered and bloody. It is not as if corruption clings to cities, leaving country life pure and good. There is no Garden of Eden in the heartland of America.... Read More
Education on the Way to Emmaus
Luke 24:13–32
Peter Dula
Luke's account of the journey to Emmaus has been read in a wide variety of ways. It is a story about the Eucharist, or about hospitality, about interpretation of scripture, or about trauma and healing. All of those readings and many others are useful. But without denying any of them, today I want to read the Emmaus journey as a story about education. As college students approach their graduation they are often thinking something like, "I just spent four (or more) years, over forty classes, 128 credits and tens of thousands of dollars, and what do I have to show for it?"...

Blasphemy and the Temporal Kingdom
Jarrett Carty
In many places in the world today, blasphemy is a serious crime against the state. Of course, contemporary democratic regimes with constitutions like the American one, with First Amendment rights and guarantees from government regulation over beliefs and speech acts, usually allow a great degree of freedom in these matters for their citizens. But around the world, blasphemy laws prohibiting any outward manifestation of religious plurality are quite common. In many jurisdictions, such as Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan, blasphemy charges can even be prosecuted as a capital offense.... Read More

Late last September, a week or so before the conference that gave rise to this essay, I was lying in bed, desperately wanting to sleep. Instead, I was wide awake with anxiety—thinking about the talk I was to give, how quickly it was coming up, and how very far it was from being written. As I lay there, I offered up a sleepy prayer that went something like: "Oh God, please give me words and ideas for this presentation!" Those who heard the talk I ended up giving can judge whether or not God answered that prayer in particular! A much more interesting question, however, is how we should think about such prayers in general: whether God indeed answers them, and, if so, how. The theme of the conference at which I was speaking was: "Created for Creativity." Read More

Louis Agassiz (1807–1873) was a Swiss naturalist who made a career for many years at Harvard and whose name still pops up all over the place: on various structures and streets around Cambridge, MA; on natural formations in Arizona, California, outer space, and the deep geological past; in the given name of at least one eminent scientist, the American ornithologist Louis Agassiz Fuentes; and in the scientific classifications of various species, such as Gopherus agassizii, the desert tortoise. Agassiz was a pioneering investigator of the fossil record, the ice age, and the taxonomy of animal life... Read More
Petroglyphs, Unpublished Poetry,
and the Urge to Leave a Mark
Michael Kramer
I had become just a little enraptured by petroglyphs, those scratchings etched into rock whether deeply or just scarring the varnish rock acquires when exposed to the elements over a period of time. I had seen them on walls and boulders on travels with my family. I had, of course, studied them in conjunction with archaeology and anthropology, two disciplines closely aligned to my stock in trade of history and literature. But my first trip to Sedona with my wife began to intensify all that. We were staying in a lovely timeshare built to resemble the Hopi pueblos famous east and north of that Arizona destination. Native American ruins and remnants dot the landscape in the Verde Valley... Read More
Searching for Jerusalem:
Christian Scholarship in Theory and in Practice
Jennifer L. Miller
As an undergraduate at Valparaiso University, I was drawn to the ways in which the campus embraced academic scholarship and Christian faith together, as complementary elements in a person's life, rather than as opposing forces. A hymn frequently sung at convocation and commencement refers to the campus as both "Athens and Jerusalem," a center of both intellectual and spiritual wisdom. The university's motto "In luce tua videmus lucem"—"In Thy Light, We See Light"—is a wonderful expression of how faith enhances scholarship. But Valpo does more than just talk about faith and scholarship. Many of my professors modeled how rigorous academic inquiry could be rooted in Christian belief with their own scholarship and their interactions with students... Read More
In Their Own Language:
Toward a Receptive Ecumenism in
Christian Higher Education
Richard Ray
What does it mean to be a Christian college? The answer to this question, as it turns out, depends on whom you ask. For some, a college is Christian only if it reflects in a deep, organic way the commitments of its founding denomination. To others, this commitment might render such a college a living embodiment of error, a place that promotes heresy in one form or another. Are these two ends of the continuum irreconcilable? Can professors teach, can students learn, and can each grow in faith on a college campus where an ecology of spiritual gift and reception provides the dominant ethos?... Read More
Protestants, Catholics, and Christian-Muslim Dialogue
on the Church-Related Campus
Anthony Minnema
Recent events at Liberty University and Wheaton College have raised concerns about Islamophobia at church-related colleges and universities. First, Liberty University's President Jerry Falwell, Jr. encouraged students to obtain concealed-carry permits after the San Bernardino shootings, arguing that "if more good people had concealed-carry permits, then we could end those Muslims before they walk in, and kill them." Second, Wheaton College placed Professor Larycia Hawkins on administrative leave for comments on Facebook in which she stated that Christians and Muslims worship the same god. Although Wheaton initiated proceedings to terminate Hawkins' tenure for failing to uphold the college's statement of faith, both parties have since come to a confidential agreement that resulted in Hawkins' resignation from the college...

Broken Bell:
Some Thoughts on Parenting and Poetry
Kjerstin Anne Kauffman
I have three young children. For me, the question "why write?" carries urgency. Why spend precious hours and strenuous mental effort over imperfect poems while battling hormones, leaking breast milk, and desperately in need of sleep? On the other hand, why have another child, and then another, when the timing might not be convenient, when, given the drive to write, there would be more solitude, more time for thought without them?
The urge to mother and the urge to write poems coexist in me. There are philosophical reasons for doing both, to be sure: I act according to my own set of premises about sexuality, creativity, and the good life. More than that, though, these urges are fundamentally connected for me, each dealing with the mystery of life at its source, each making me vulnerable to the suffering of others, and each exposing me to my own moral contradiction, which is a form of pain...

Christianity Is a Spirituality
Thomas Cathcart
Before there were Christian "beliefs," there was Christian spirituality. Before the council of bishops at Nicea decided that Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity, there was Christian spirituality. Before the Council of Chalcedon decided that Jesus Christ has two natures, divine and human, there was Christian spirituality. Indeed, before the title "Son of God" was ascribed to Jesus of Nazareth, there was Christian spirituality. On that first Easter, the extraordinary experiences of Jesus's followers were spiritual experiences. Apart from how any of them chose to put it into words, the experience itself was a spiritual "shaking of the foundations," not an empirical observation or a metaphysical theory... Read More
The 1998 North-Central Iowa
Spring Break Blizzard Tour
Nathaniel Lee Hansen
One way to describe the tour is like this: almost everything went wrong, almost nothing went right. If we had been seeking a sign from the Lord as to whether this Christian rock band was, in fact, His calling on our lives, we would have observed that the events of these three days created an eight-foot snow bank that featured an ALL CAPS, bold-faced, underlined, italicized, red NO spray painted against the white pile. But we weren't looking for any kind of sign, at least I wasn't. The offer of the tour was the sign. While other college students in Minnesota and across the country plotted balmy debauchery and revelry, the four of us in Incarnate Son (Mike, Matt, Jen, and me) were going on tour. For the Lord! We weren't traveling just anywhere to win the lost; we were booked to play two shows in North-Central Iowa towns of 4,000 and 2,000 people, respectively. What better spring-break destination than these sub-tropical hot spots in mid-March?... Read More
A Seed of Life: The Legacy of Hugo Curran
Joel Kurz
I reveled in his presence as a child. His lips, surrounded by amber-stained silver hairs, often parted with the undulating rhythms of his rhymes. His were inviting words, replete with imaged echoes. To look into his eyes was to see a mystic's intensity and restraint, to see that he was a man both quiet and ecstatic, one mindful of his vision and ever bearing witness. I knew him simply as Uncle Hugo, even though he was more of a grandfather and bore no blood relation. Born to an accomplished forester and his wife in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in September of 1913, he was named Hugh McCollum Curran, Jr. When he was fifteen, his father took a position with the Philippine Bureau of Forestry and moved the family to the island of Luzon.

Near the end of May 1965, with just a week of final exams left in my sophomore year of college, I spent a Saturday afternoon bleaching my hair. I had help—my roommate and another fraternity brother who claimed he knew just how much hydrogen peroxide would make us blond. After a few beers, I believed him. My brown hair had grown past my collar, a length that drew suspicion even on campus. My roommate's light-brown hair was clipped short; the other guy still slicked his black hair back like Elvis. The three of us soaked our hair and, satisfied that we were about to be transformed, we went outside to lie in the sun, drink beer, and wait for blondness to arrive. We checked every half hour, looking in the bathroom's mirrors... Read More
Not Just Whistling "Dixie":
The Civil War's Legacy in Ron Rash's
The World Made Straight
Martha Greene Eads
Appalachian poet and fiction-writer Ron Rash is emerging as an international literary superstar. Irish novelist Edna O'Brien's back-cover endorsement of his 2014 short story collection Nothing Gold Can Stay declares, "Like his great predecessors, Faulkner, Flannery O'Connor, and especially Eudora Welty, Ron Rash's stories are rooted in the American South and from that place and those people, he writes marvelously rich and compelling vignettes of life as he has seen and imagined it." In her assessment of Burning Bright (2010), an earlier volume of Rash short stories, Irish Times reviewer Eileen Battersby proclaims, "Magnificent is suddenly too small a word."... Read More
Still a Work in Progress:
Harper Lee's Go Set A Watchman
Fredrick Barton
The late Civil Rights activist and author Will D. Campbell, the only white man to participate in Martin Luther King Jr.'s founding of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), liked to tell about how white people, particularly prosperous white people, reacted to his message of racial equality and inclusiveness. In the late 1940s, when he was at Yale Divinity School, but still interacting with the people in his home region of rural Mississippi, and in the early 1950s, when he pastored a Baptist church in small-town Taylor, Louisiana, Campbell's white associates and parishioners found his attitudes about race "endearing" and "charming." They found it "cute" that Campbell cared so much about "darkies." By the mid-1950s and throughout the 1960s, however... Read More
Stories for a Post-Christian Age:
Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens
David K. Weber
"What is man?" to ask an old question in an old way. Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind is a new answer to the old question. The first thing to say about this book is that it is not as boring as the title suggests. The book began as a university course that promised students an explanation of everything, "from the Stone Age to the age of capitalism and genetic engineering" (Harari, "Syllabus..."). Given the large swath of history and ideas it covers, the book is
necessarily a catalogue of very interesting oversimplifications. Its aim is to help us envision a new kind of wisdom because, "The very future of life on Earth depends on the ideas and behavior of our species" ("Syllabus...")...

I may be overstating it, but these two guys arguably saved the Reds season. They deserve enormous credit.
I'm on record that Chapman is the team's MVP. But these two guys as a tandem have an argument.
This team lost Votto in July. The team has played better and HIT better since the best hitter in the league, possibly in MLB, has been out.
Frazier now has a .913 OPS. 18 homers. But even better, he has a .352 OBP. This is the team's weak spot, OBP. .352 is pretty darn good for a power hitter like Todd.
Ludwick has been the Greg Vaughn type, if not quite so prolific with the long ball. Has become a big presence in the lineup. .911 OPS, 25 homers. And again, in the difficult OBP area, he's at .341. Very, very solid.
Even more -- these two guys have natural roles for the future. Frazier at third. He's not Rolen defensively but he can be average or better as he improves.
Ludwick playing in the NL Central and GABP can be the clean up hitter the Reds have sought. And since he's not a big star, his next contract shouldn't destroy the payroll.
Add Votto back in, the team's lineup is looking much better. Maybe one more OBP guy to share CF with Stubbs, lineup would look terrific.
Sorry for the optimism. Thought these two guys deserved a thread.

Statement of the
Midwest Regional Mobilization for Peace & Justice
On the Oct. 2 One Nation Rally
The Oct. 16 Midwest Regional Mobilization for Peace & Justice endorses the October 2 One Nation rally in Washington D.C. to demand jobs and economic relief from the deepening recession.
Although the lead organizers of the Oct. 2 rally will attempt to use it to promote Democratic candidates in the November elections, most members of community organizations, peace and justice groups, and labor unions will not be there for that purpose. This rank-and-file presence in DC will be a welcome counter-force to the failed promote-the-Democrats strategy of the rally organizers.
U.S. Labor Against the War has pointed out in its call to build the Oct. 2 One Nation rally that:
"The trillion dollar wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have robbed our communities of desperately needed resources... As the economy falters, it is time to change course..."
We also call for an end of U.S. aid to Israel and an end to the Israel blockade of Gaza.
These are messages which the Democratic Party will not want to hear, and these messages should be made loud and clear on Oct. 2.
We do not agree with the strategy of the Oct. 2 organizers seeking to re-elect Democrats this year who view the Democratic Party as a vehicle to end these wars.
For the Oct. 2 rally, we, along with many other participating organizations opposed to the war policies of the Democrats and Republicans, will raise our slogans:
END the Wars & Occupations NOW!
Money for Human Needs, Not Corporate Greed!

Last Saturday's defeat at Man Utd in the FA Cup ended a dismal fortnight which saw Arsenal eliminated from three of the four competitions they were contesting this season. Only one remains.
The performance at Old Trafford brought to the surface all the niggles and flaws of this current squad. Missing a couple of key players, the team still managed to conjure up some sumptuous approach play. However, their cutting edge was nowhere near sharp enough and defensive errors cost them dearly.
Sometimes you just have to hold your hands up and say you were beaten by a better team. It's not often that Arsenal have to admit that but Wednesday night's 3-1 defeat to Barcelona was one such occasion.
There is far to much hyperbole and exaggeration in football coverage but when the current Catalan team are described as "one of the greatest club sides in the game's history", it is hard to disagree. Whatever you may think of the club itself, the way it is run and the disgraceful way it sometimes behaves in the transfer market, there is no doubt that the current crop of players representing it are up there with the best of all-time and they certainly are the benchmark by which all teams at the top of today's game have to measure themselves.
It has been a rough week for Arsenal and their supporters. Losing any final is always hard to bear and Sunday's Carling Cup Final was a huge disappointment. It has to be said though that some of the reaction to that defeat has been ridiculous and it seems that perspective has been lost in certain quarters.
You would be forgiven for thinking that some pundits (and some Arsenal supporters) assumed that it would just be a case of the Gunners simply showing up at Wembley, coasting through 90 minutes and it would be more or less a foregone conclusion that Birmingham would roll over and we would pick up a cup at the end of the afternoon.
That was never going to be how it was. This was one of the biggest days in the Blues' history and it was inevitable that they would be up for the game and be a far tougher prospect than they may be on a week-by-week basis. Credit and congratulations to them, they played well and with a lot of heart. However, the game was lost by Arsenal because of an accident and not because they were overwhelmed by their opponents.

UPDATE: ESPNLosAngeles.com reported late Saturday that Scott agreed to a four-year contract.
Byron Scott spent Saturday mulling whether to become coach of the Lakers, while questions continued about whether the team offered him the job.
This much is clear: Scott has the approval of Kobe Bryant, the aging Lakers star who appears to have a say in the team's decision.
As to when Scott will make his choice, a source told the Los Angeles Times: "It could be a few hours, or it could happen next week."
Scott and Bryant were teammates in 1996-97. It was Scott's final season as a player and Bryant's first.
"We've had a tremendously close relationship throughout the years," Bryant said earlier this month. "So obviously I know him extremely well, he knows me extremely well and I've always been a fan of his."
Having interviewed three times for the job, Scott has long been seen as an obvious choice to replace Mike D'Antoni, who resigned in April.
Which raises the question: Why has this taken so long?
While it would have made sense to hire a coach and get players to fit his system, NBC Sports suggests the front office put players ahead of the coach. It chased LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony, losing both of them, and then brought in Jeremy Lin and Carlos Boozer.
Scott has a strong background with the Lakers, including time spent last season as a TV analyst. And, according to various reports, his focus on defense is especially appealing to a team that was a sieve last season while going 27-55.
Scott's record as a coach with the Cavaliers, Nets and Pelicans franchise is good, especially in taking the Nets to back-to-back NBA Finals. But the Lakers also considered more successful coaches.
The Cavaliers experience is a mixed bag. They were terrible in the era after James left for the Heat, and Scott's teams were among the worst in defensive efficiency for three consecutive seasons.
As Scott decides on whether to coach the Lakers, observers reach an obvious conclusion. He is a good coach, albeit not the best available, and the man Bryant wants. And that, it seems, trumps everything.
