Reagan has been constipated since Tuesday. We have been doing Karo syrup and it isn't working. It is breaking my heart to see her so miserable. She has cried nonstop since yesterday. I don't know what else to do for her.
**Knock on Wood**
I think we have solved the constipation issue. We switched formula twice and found one she can tolerate. We also switched to drop-in bottles with latex nipples. She has had 12 bm in the last 2 days. Hoping no more trouble for a while!!!

Over-Time Win Feels Like A Loss
"Surprisingly", It took over-time to seal the deal. The bottom line is Miami Dolphins beat the Cleveland Browns in an over-time win. Outside of all the negative context attached to this win, Miami still has a theoretical chance at having a successful 2016 season. Unfortunately, when you analyze the context, that "theoretical" shot looks more and more like a pipe-dream. Unless […]» Read more

Church stories are usually for Sunday mornings. But Sunday night there was a certain church story shown nationwide on ABC, and it was pretty special because it started in Detroit, with a drop of rain.
As the years passed, the rain began to rot the roof. The ceiling grew brown. The plaster peeled and fell.
One morning, the pastor of this church -- a big, smiling, heavyset man named Henry Covington -- noticed the rain had rotted a hole through the ceiling. It got bigger. And bigger. Soon the hole was nearly 20 feet long, and the water came pouring in, splashing on the pews as the congregants prayed.
In other churches, in other places, they start a drive to raise repair funds. But in this church, in Detroit, there was no such money. The congregants were poor. Some were homeless. And Pastor Henry was a once-wayward soul who, in giving his life to God, left the bad life behind and took nothing with him.
The hole grew and grew.
But the power of a place.
It can move mountains.
So in the pews of that church, a few years back, I sat with Henry and we looked at that hole, and we talked about fixing it, but first he told me he had been a drug dealer, a thief, an addict, incarcerated. He told me this because he wanted to be honest. There was a spirit in the air, and we became friends.
And earlier this year, in those same pews of that same church, I sat with executives from the Hallmark Hall of Fame. They wanted to make a movie of "Have a Little Faith," the book I wrote about Henry and how the hole was fixed.
A few months after that -- in those same pews in that same church -- Laurence Fishburne, the esteemed actor, donned a robe and preached a sermon that had the audience, made of real congregants, jumping and clapping and urging him on. He was playing the role of Rev. Henry Covington, and playing it well. But the spirit of that place, I believe, pushed the performance.
And finally, two weeks ago -- in those same pews of that same church -- Fishburne and fellow actors Martin Landau, Bradley Whitford, Anika Noni Rose and Deanna Dunagan returned to Detroit and took part in a service of joy and music, as the congregants sang and prayed along.
Looking up, the ceiling was solid. The original hole had been fixed. A second hole -- which the movie crew had bashed through -- also had been fixed. It says something about a church's resiliency, doesn't it? Two holes, no dripping?
The church is called I Am My Brother's Keeper ministries. And Sunday night, its story and that of its amazing pastor were shown to the nation on ABC.
I only wish Henry were here to see it. He died last December at age 53. His death carved a new hole in the church, one that can't be fixed with plaster and shingles. It hurts every day.
The spirit of the man inspires not only the film, but the real people still down at My Brother's Keeper -- Henry's wife, his kids, his dear friends, his flock. They pray. They work. They feed the homeless who sleep on their floor. They carry on.
I remember Henry once standing in the sanctuary, pointing up and telling his people, "Look at the hole in the roof. It won't be here for long." He was right. And I guess nothing -- and none of us -- is really here for long.
It's a Sunday morning story on a Sunday night. And wherever Henry is up there, I imagine he can see it.
After all, the whole thing started with a drop of rain.

Lipstadt's Ward Churchill Moment
by STEVE LIPMAN
Staff Writer
Photo Galleria:
Deborah Lipstadt watched the television coverage the other day of Ward Churchill, the University of Colorado scholar under fire for calling the 9-11 victims "little Eichmanns," and something seemed familiar. Churchill had compared Lipstadt, the Emory University professor of Jewish and Holocaust studies who won a 2002 libel suit brought by a British Holocaust denier, to Eichmann, an architect of the Final Solution. In one of her files, she found an already forgotten article in which Churchill wrote: "There is no difference between … a Deborah Lipstadt and an Adolf Eichmann." She reread the article, and decided that Churchill's critics, including Colorado's governor, err when they publicly confront Churchill and call for his dismissal from the CU faculty. Churchill, who claims Native American roots, attacks Lipstadt in print every few years, she said. "He thinks I'm worse than a Holocaust denier because I don't acknowledge that the American Indians experienced a holocaust" at the hands of white Americans. She finds many of his other statements outlandish –– in addition to making his controversial remarks about the people who died on 9-11, he has also been quoted as comparing explorer Christopher Columbus to Nazi leader Heinrich Himmler. But Lipstadt thinks those who disagree with Churchill should ignore him –– until they can prove that he is doing harm on campus. "Don't turn him into a martyr," she told The Jewish Week in a telephone interview. "Don't overreact. Don't play into his hands." This is her advice for dealing with all Holocaust deniers and twisters of history. "Do not give them a platform." "He seems to be a third-rate scholar," Lipstadt said. "He has been turned into a rock star because of the attempt to silence him." Lipstadt has some advice for those who are reacting to Churchill's behavior. "First, do your homework," she advises. "Find out, does he create a hostile atmosphere in his class to anyone who disagrees with him? Does he provide nonfactual information" in his lectures. If the answer is yes, if he is falling short of the standards to which an educator should be held, then it is legitimate to seek his removal, Lipstadt said. If not, then keep quiet. Lipstadt called British historian David Irving a Holocaust denier in her 1993 book, "Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory." Irving sued her and lost. "I would not sue Irving," she said. She wouldn't give him such a courtroom platform from which to spread his views. "Irving himself is not important," she said. "The same is true for Ward Churchill."

WASHINGTON - Republicans are routing Democrats when it comes to raising money in the four most competitive House races in the Philadelphia region.
The Republicans in those contests have more than three times as much cash on hand as the Democrats: $5.36 million to $1.64 million as of June 30, according to campaign filings released this week.
In three of the four races, the Republican candidates raised at least twice as much in the latest reporting period as their Democratic rivals.

Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...
Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
Expanding Use of NGS Has Largely...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
GTC Biotherapeutics obtained exclusive, worldwide rights to recombinant human alpha-fetoprotein (rhAFP) for the treatment of autoimmune diseases from Merrimack Pharmaceuticals. This includes the nonglycosylated version of rhAFP known as MM-093.
GTC will receive an initial inventory of bulk drug substance for use in clinical studies. It will also assume control of the transgenic goats that express rhAFP in their milk, which were originally developed by GTC for Merrimack. GTC intends to further develop rhAFP through commercial partnering.
"The already established safety data and production capability, the published animal disease models, and access to sufficient drug substance make rhAFP an attractive candidate for partnering discussions to support further development and commercialization, potentially as a Phase II product candidate," comments Geoffrey F. Cox, Ph.D., GTC's chairman and CEO.
Published studies of rhAFP and AFP derived from cord blood indicate that the recombinant form could be as effective in treating multiple sclerosis as the native form that occurs during pregnancy, according to GTC. Further studies of rhAFP in multiple sclerosis or myasthenia gravis may begin at the proof of concept Phase II level of evaluation.

You may want to stat out with one of the beginners kits made by some of the manufacturers.
I bought a copy of the ABC's of reloading and Modern reloading by Richard Lee. Those two books will get you off to a good start.
January 26, 2008, 12:43 AM
This is a great press. I've been watching it on eBay, but I don't really need another one:
Get a copy of Lyman's 48th Reloading Handbook and read it cover to cover. Especially the chapters before the load data starts.
January 26, 2008, 12:58 AM
I suggest you read the stickies re: reloading at the top of the main page.Some good info there.
Rifle and pistol are 2 different breeds of cat to relaod.Start with the pistol round,and then you'll know some of the basics of running the press and setting up the dies.
I like the LYman's book for load data and general info.That and 'the ABC's of reloading' will come in real handy ..for years to come.
January 26, 2008, 01:03 AM
The Lee Classic Turret is about as good as it gets for an all around low dollar setup that'll do multiple calibers. Check out the Cabela's kit (http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat602007-cat20847&id=0044122216337a&navCount=1&podId=0044122&parentId=cat20847&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IJ&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat20847&hasJS=true), and also the one at Kempf (http://www.kempfgunshop.com/products/reloading/completerelo/KempfKit.html).

RCBS rock chuckers supreme master reloading kit. The names a little redundent, but its an exlent press. You should really look into it. Everything you need to start off reloading.
February 2, 2008, 08:30 AM
I started with the lee anniversery kit. Its cheap and you can buy it direct from Lee with there loading manuel. The ABCs of reloading is also what I read before I bought a press. You can never have enough manuals for cross reference. If its something you decide you like, you can always up grade. I only load 45LC and 45/70, since there both straight wall case the single stage is ok for now. I will probably be loading more calibers soon and will up grade to a progressive. Any help you need this is the site for it. When I started I gots lots of info here. Just my 2cents good luck, Bob

February 2, 2008, 08:43 AM
i ditto ruger bob,
the anniversery kit is the way to go, to see if you want to stay with it. if you find out you do ,you can always find lesser duties for the press like decaping, or for a back up. this entry kit is very servicable and it's reasonably priced,(got mine for $69. 00) the book by Lee is also very useful he has a unique out look on reloading.
if you want to go even cheaper there are the Lee Loaders availabe in your calibers. both kits can load M.O.A quality ammo, and the plus is BIG FUN also!
dagger dog
February 2, 2008, 09:31 AM
Lee Anniversary kit will do. RCBS master kit is better equipment fo slightly more money.
Ask your local gun shop if they have any used press deals. I got an old RCSB Reloader Supreme from my shop for $10.
February 2, 2008, 12:16 PM
I agree with campbell and the Lee classic turret press. It is very easy for a beginner to set up and operate. I started with the classic turret and was happy I did. I found out after three weeks of loading on the classic that if I had started with a single stage press then I would be upgrading already. If you are going to load pistol ammo then I wouldn't recommend a single stage press. I load 9mm, 38/357 and 223 on my classic and they all load very easy. The ammo has been very good and consistant. I have had it for a year and a half and it has been a very reliable press. I haven't had any problems and the press is a very sturdy press. The classic turret can be used as an auto indexing turret press or a single stage press if you take the indexing rod out. I use it as a single stage press for part of my rifle loading without taking the rod out, I just don't lower the ram enough to cycle the indexing rod. Most people load around 200 rounds per hour loading pistol on the classic. Rifle will be a little slower because of the case prep, but that has to be done no matter what press you use.
February 2, 2008, 12:30 PM
Ditto on RustyFN's comments about the Classic Cast.
The second issue is building the list of gear you want to buy--and a good discussion of that can be found here (http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=335512) or here (http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=333419).
If you read through those two threads, you should be able to put together a comprehensive kit at a budget level you are comfortable with.

Automatic regression tests with Selenium
Testing complex web applications does not necessarily mean investing in expensive, proprietary tools such as Test Director or Silk Performer. Selenium is for free; it can remotely control any major browser, and it is programmable in Perl.
The only way to say for sure if a web application will work after modifying the code is to try all the functions in a browser. This means opening every single page, pressing every single button, and filling out every single text box. And you have to go through this multiple times to check out every possible success or error scenario. The people from quality assurance would probably not look forward to the prospect of performing these monotonous tests manually. At the same time, this approach leaves you open to human error. We need an automatic test.

An Amarillo company is working to grow its distributed energy market with a micro wind farm 12 stories above downtown Dallas.
Hydro-Star Energy's assemblies of 80 turbines left town Friday on tractor-trailers headed for El Centro College's main campus with cranes waiting to give them a lift up to the roof, weather permitting.
"All the power will be consumed by the school," said Curt Bessleman, vice president of marketing at Hydro-Star.
That's a key component for belonging in the distributed wind energy market compared with the utility market where huge turbines pump electricity to utilities that distribute the power to thousands of customers.
"Wind systems are characterized as distributed based on ... (being) installed at or near the point of end-use for the purposes of meeting onsite (demand) or supporting the operation of a distribution grid," according to a market report from the U.S. Department of Energy and industry groups.
Their connections also are usually on the power customer's side of the electric meter.
El Centro is part of the Dallas County Community College District, providing preparation for attending four-year schools and vocational training.
Joel Hart, president of Hydro-Star, said his company is an independent wind developer focusing on the distributed wind market for commercial facilities.
"We're using the wind right where it's used," he said. "It's blowing over our heads whether we use it or not."
And the company is a small one among giants.
"In oil, there's Shell and ExxonMobil, but there's hundreds of independents," he said. "In the wind segment, there's big ones like Siemens, Vesta and GE, so Hydro-Star would be an independent."
The turbines the company prepared at its building west of Amarillo come from California and tout features such as being able to bend backward out of high winds to reduce the spinning of the blades but continue to produce power, Besselman said. They also will start producing electricity in winds of about 7 mph rather than twice that speed, which is required by other turbines.
These turbines can produce up to one quarter of a kilowatt, giving the array of 80 a capacity of 20 kilowatts. A megawatt of capacity, or fifty times this installation's, can power about 350 average homes, according to industry estimates. However, the capacity rating is for constant optimal operations, which doesn't happen because of the variability of wind.

Sidelined by election-year politics, the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812 has received relatively little notice. Black Americans' role in the war has claimed less attention still. Yet both the United States and Britain saw blacks, enslaved and free, as a wild card that could help them win.
Here in Philadelphia, blacks pitched in to defend the city from a possible British attack. Viewing them as allies meant an about-face for many whites.
Blacks figured in the brewing conflict from the start. In the early 19th century, at war with Napoleonic France and desperate for sailors, the British began boarding U.S. merchant ships, taking suspected British deserters, and forcing them to join the royal navy. Some black seamen were taken through impressment, as this tactic was known.

Numerical simulation of microwave thawing using a coupled solver approach
Parrott, Kevin and Tilford, Tim (2007) Numerical simulation of microwave thawing using a coupled solver approach. PAMM - Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, 7 (1). pp. 1150601-1150602. ISSN 1617-7061 (online) (doi:10.1002/pamm.200700212)Full text not available from this repository.
Thawing of a frozen food product in a domestic microwave oven is numerically simulated using a coupled solver approach. The approach consists of a dedicated electromagnetic FDTD solver and a closely coupled UFVM multi-physics package. Two overlapping numerical meshes are defined; the food material and container were meshed for heat transfer and phase change solution, whilst the microwave oven cavity and waveguide were meshed for the microwave irradiation. The two solution domains were linked using a cross-mapping routine. This approach allowed the rotation of the food load to be captured. Power densities obtained on the structured FDTD mesh were interpolated onto the UFVM mesh for each timestep/turntable position. The UFVM solver utilised the power density data to advance the temperature and phase distribution solution. The temperature-dependant dielectric and thermo-physical properties of the food load were updated prior to revising the electromagnetic solution. Changes in thermal/electric properties associated with the phase transition were fully accounted for as well as heat losses from product to cavity. Two scenarios were investigated: a centric and eccentric placement on the turntable. Developing temperature fields predicted by the numerical solution are validated against experimentally obtained data. Presented results indicate the feasibility of fully coupled simulations of the microwave heating of a frozen product. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
The venture capital funds of two pharma giants have taken a stake in Nimbus Discovery, joining with two earlier investors to help the biopharmaceutical company secure close to $24 million in series A financing.
Proceeds from the financing will be used to accelerate existing programs targeting IRAK4 and ACC in inflammation, cancer, and metabolic disease, as well as expand the Nimbus pipeline to include new targets for several medical conditions. IRAK4 plays a pivotal role in inflammatory disease, allowing the Nimbus drug candidates to be pursued in a broad range of therapeutic applications. Humans with inactivating IRAK4 mutations are resistant to autoimmune disease but are otherwise healthy in adulthood.
SR One, the corporate venture arm of GlaxoSmithKline, and Lilly Ventures, a venture fund associated with Eli Lilly & Co., co-led the round along with Atlas Venture. The investments fit with Nimbus' goal of partnering with larger pharmaceutical companies early in the development process, so that Nimbus can focus on drug discovery.
In connection with the financing, Kent Gossett, M.D., Ph.D., partner at SR One, and Steve Hall, Ph.D., venture partner at Lilly Ventures, have joined Nimbus' Board of Directors.
Also participating in the series A round was Bill Gates. The Microsoft founder-chairman and philanthropist joined in March on an extension of an earlier seed financing round of undisclosed value with Atlas and Richard A. Friesner, Ph.D., professor of chemistry at Columbia University and co-founder of Schrödinger, a developer of chemical simulation software for computational drug discovery.
Schrödinger – the recipient of a $10 million investment from Gates --has partnered with Nimbus in a drug discovery collaboration. Within the first year of that effort, Nimbus has delivered compounds for two disease targets the company considers to be pivotal in the progression of an aggressive form of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and obesity.
Last year Atlas joined with Schrödinger, to raise $3.5 million for Nimbus in a seed round. Atlas and Schrödinger co-founded Nimbus in 2009.

Dinner Party Food
Wilted Escarole Salad
Sturdy escarole can sit for a few minutes, even when tossed with a warm vinaigrette
Cocoa-Cured Lamb Loin with Olive-Pear Relish
Cocoa powder lends a bittersweet depth to the lamb rub and plays well with the olives in the relish. Just make sure you're using unsweetened!
Tad's Roasted Potatoes
Food52 founder Amanda Hesser's husband Tad makes excellent roasted potatoes, so they're often on the menu when she throws a dinner party.
Collard and Pecan Pesto
A dip that proves collards don't have to be stewed for hours to be delicious.
Cod with Lemon, Green Olive, and Onion Relish
Most 1"-thick pieces of fish will cook in 30 minutes. If the fish is done before you're ready to sit down, simply turn off the oven—it will hold. If it isn't quite ready when you are, crank up the heat to 350° and it'll finish quickly.
Cheddar and Horseradish Spread
This spread is cheesy, tangy, and a little spicy. Serve with plenty of crackers.
Deviled Ham
For this deviled ham recipe (and everything else), we love Benton's brand, made in Tennessee.
Port and Onion Chutney
Red onions add sweetness and lend color to this chutney, but any onion will work.
Slow-Roasted Andalusian-Style Lamb and Potatoes
Ask for the smallest lamb your butcher has (like those from New Zealand), or buy a 3½–4-lb. piece of a leg.
Clark's Oyster Bar's Cioppino
This cioppino recipe uses bottled clam juice, a smart shortcut to a robust broth. Recipe by Tom Moorman and Larry McGuire, Clark's Oyster Bar, Austin

In Brief: High court nixes $3.4M award to child porn victim
WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected a plea to make it easier for victims of child pornography to collect money from people who view their images online, throwing out a nearly $3.4 million judgment in favor of a woman whose childhood rape has been widely seen on the Internet. Two dissenting justices said Congress should change the law to benefit victims.
The justices said in a 5-4 ruling that a 1994 federal law gives victims the right to seek restitution from offenders, but only to the extent that the victim's losses are tied to the offenders' actions. In this case, Doyle Randall Paroline was held liable by a federal appeals court for the entire amount of the woman's losses, though his computer contained just two images of her, among more than 150 illicit photographs.
The case involved a woman known in court papers by the pseudonym "Amy." Her losses for psychological care, lost income and attorneys' fees have been pegged at nearly $3.4 million, based on the ongoing Internet trade and viewing of images of her being raped by her uncle when she was 8 and 9 years old.
Man convicted in WikiLeaks case gets name as woman
LEAVENWORTH, Kan. -- An Army private convicted of providing classified documents to WikiLeaks won an initial victory Wednesday toward living as a woman when a Kansas judge granted a petition to change her name to Chelsea Elizabeth Manning.
The decision clears the way for official changes to Manning's military records, but does not compel the military to treat the soldier previously known as Bradley Edward Manning as a woman.
That includes not being moved from the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth.
Manning, who is serving a 35-year prison sentence, has asked to be transferred to a prison with a women's unit, or receive counseling and hormone treatments.
Spacewalking astronauts complete urgent repair job
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Spacewalking astronauts easily replaced a dead computer outside the International Space Station on Wednesday and got their orbiting home back up to full strength.
The two Americans on board, Rick Mastracchio and Steven Swanson, hustled through the urgent repair job, swapping out the computers well within an hour. The new one tested fine.
The removed computer, a critical backup, failed nearly two weeks ago. The prime computer has been working perfectly, but NASA wanted to install a fresh spare as soon as possible.
Mission Control waited until after the arrival of a capsule full of fresh supplies Sunday.
Oklahoma inmates may beheaded to executions
OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Oklahoma Supreme Court has rejected claims by two death row inmates that they're entitled to know the source of the drugs that will be used to kill them.
In a ruling late Wednesday, the state's high court also lifted a stay of execution it had granted earlier in the week.
The decision paves the way for death row inmates Clayton Lockett and Charles Warner to receive a lethal injection at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester.
A stay issued Tuesday by Gov. Mary Fallin remains in place for Lockett, but only until April 29, the same day Warner is scheduled to die.
Fallin spokesman Alex Weintz has said it's possible both men could be executed on April 29.

Arkansas State coaches have made it clear that they are looking for a left tackle.
They may have found just what they are looking for in Junior College Lineman DeShaun Byrd.
Byrd signed his scholarship papers with Arkansas State today and will play for the Red Wolves this fall.
"I'm really excited about signing with Arkansas State," Byrd told AStateNation Tuesday evening. "Coach Malzahn has big plans for AState and I want to be a part of what he is going to build there."
Byrd had offers from Akron, North Texas, Middle Tennessee and a couple of other schools.
"My visit to Jonesboro was great," Byrd said. "It's a great college town. All the fans feed off the energy around the football program."
Byrd, a 6-foot-6, 315-pound left offensive tackle, explains that the Arkansas State coaching staff wants him to come in and compete right away for a starting position.
"That's what they are telling me," Byrd said. "They say I can come in and start right away."
Byrd is impressed with the Red Wolves coaching staff, especially Gus Malzahn and offensive line coach J.B. Grimes.
"Coach Grimes has six national championships," Byrd said. "You can tell by watching one practice that he really knows his stuff."
Byrd is also familiar with what Malzahn has accomplished.
"He knows what it takes to win National Championships also," Byrd said. "Malzahn is a pretty great guy. He is a great man, we had several great conversations."
Byrd is also impressed with the current Red Wolf offensive line.
"They have a lot of potential," Byrd said. "They are building something special there."

What's in the Xbox Update Coming this Summer!
Last November, we transformed Xbox One to make it faster and more social with the New Xbox One Experience, and since then we've been delivering regular fan requested features and updates. Expected this week, we're releasing into Preview a summer update that will start to rollout to our Xbox Preview audience for Xbox One, and in the coming weeks we'll release it to the Xbox app (beta) on Windows 10. New features will rollout to the Preview audience in waves, not all at once. We're really excited about this update as it lays the foundation to bring together more people and more games across devices through Xbox Live.
Starting this summer, Xbox One and the Xbox app will receive the first of two updates that will help you stay connected with friends on Xbox Live and enjoy even more games across your favorite devices. Cortana will come to Xbox One; the Xbox and Windows Stores will start to become unified; we will begin to introduce your top PC games with Game Hubs to Xbox Live, and more. These updates are crucial to giving our fans around the world a great gaming experience wherever and whatever they play.
Here are some of the features that are expected to start to rollout to Xbox One Preview this week, and the Xbox app (beta) in the coming weeks:
Xbox One
Cortana on Xbox One: Cortana is coming to Preview in the U.S., U.K., France, Italy, Germany and Spain first, and gamers can expect the familiar Cortana experience found on other Windows 10 devices. Cortana voice commands on Xbox One will work with both headsets and Kinect. You'll be able to use Cortana to find great new games, see what your friends are up to, start a party, accomplish common tasks, turn on your Xbox One if you're using Kinect, and more. We'll continue to build Cortana features over time and our vision is to use Cortana to help elevate your experience as your personal digital assistant for gaming. Just say "Hey Cortana" or launch the app to get started!
image: http://news.xbox.com/wp-content/uploads/1608-2.png
New Game Collection: We're updating the Game Collection interface to make it faster and easier to find and launch the games you're looking for. Now you'll be able to see more of your Game Collection, quickly access your own 'Ready to Install' tab, and get more information about titles in your queue.
image: http://news.xbox.com/wp-content/uploads/1608-3.png
Facebook Friend Finder on Xbox One: Facebook Friend Finder is expanding from the Xbox app to Xbox One and is a great way to find and add your Facebook friends on Xbox. As more gamers link their Facebook and Xbox Live accounts, you'll start seeing more suggestions for Facebook friends to add and game with on Xbox Live.
image: http://news.xbox.com/wp-content/uploads/1608-4.png
Improved sharing on Xbox One: We've made it easier to share your screenshots, GameDVR clips, and achievements on Xbox One. Gamers can now share their most epic clips and captures with the community in fewer steps.
Xbox app and Windows 10 gaming
Edit and share GameDVR clips on any video editor: Create that perfect gaming montage with your favorite video editor with clips you recorded on either Xbox One or your PC. Once you're finished editing, you'll be able to upload the clip back to Xbox Live through the Xbox app.
Updated GameDVR management: You can now manage your captures straight from your profile. This new destination allows you to share, start your own uploads, and see progress in the queue.
60 fps game clip recording with the Game bar: Using the new "Very High" video quality setting in the Xbox app, you will be able to record your game clips in up to 60 frames per second (in addition to 30 frames per second) easily, all from the Game bar (Windows + G).
Share to Twitter from Xbox app: In the Xbox app, you'll be able to share game clips and screenshots from Xbox Live to Twitter through the sharing options on each capture.
Windows Game bar improved full-screen support: One of the most common requests we see for the Windows 10 GameDVR feature is the ability to use the Windows Game bar with more games running in full-screen. We've added support for six additional games in full-screen mode with Windows game bar: League of Legends, World of Warcraft, DOTA 2, Battlefield 4, Counterstrike: Global Offensive, and Diablo III. With those games, you can now use Windows + G to bring up the Windows Game bar when the game is running full-screen.
Xbox One and Xbox app
Top PC games show up on Xbox Live: We're bringing the top PC games like League of Legends and XCOM 2 together with the Xbox Live community. Meaning, your favorite PC games will have their own Game Hubs on Xbox Live. Whether you're on your PC, Xbox, or mobile phone, you'll be able to see what PC games your friends are playing, share your own PC gaming clips and screenshots with the community, and message your friends on Xbox Live. On both Xbox One and Windows 10 PCs, you'll also be able to party chat with your friends no matter what they're doing.
image: http://news.xbox.com/wp-content/uploads/1608-5.png
Xbox and Windows Store convergence: We're starting to combine the best of the Xbox Store and Windows Store to give gamers a single cohesive experience across their devices. On Xbox One, we've streamlined the shopping experience to help you find the games you love faster and at the best prices. You'll be able to filter, browse and search results by genre, read reviews written by fellow gamers – including those voted "most helpful" by the Xbox Live community, easily recognize what titles are on sale with strikethrough pricing in lists, and more. We've also added several new channels to help you discover the content you love even faster. On the Windows Store, we're adding support so gamers can browse and purchase bundles, episodic games, season passes, virtual currency and other game add-ons and DLC.
image: http://news.xbox.com/wp-content/uploads/1608-6.png
More personal Activity Feed: Being able to choose what's posted to your Activity Feed across Xbox One and the Xbox app is a big fan-requested feature. With the new settings, you can now decide what will get automatically shared to your feed. You can now also craft the perfect Activity Feed posts. At the top of your Activity Feed, easily access and choose from recently unlocked achievements and captures, preview what your post would look like, and then share your greatest gaming moments.
For the update coming this summer, we're taking the same approach we used for the New Xbox One Experience with an opt-in program to let fans choose how they want to participate. We'll begin testing a set of features expected this week with an opt-in audience in Xbox Preview. Like all Preview releases, the features are a work-in-progress as we refine them before they launch to the broader community, and some features can stay in Preview for extended periods of time. Additionally, we're merging the Windows Insider program with the Xbox One Preview program to streamline feedback and updates.
As we continue to evolve the Xbox experience, we appreciate each and every suggestion provided on Xbox Feedback. In just this past year, we've released more than 200 new features inspired by fan feedback on Xbox One through our regular updates and the New Xbox One Experience. In the upcoming months, the team will be focusing all of our efforts on the next two updates and won't be releasing an update every month.
We're very excited for the Xbox update coming this summer. Keep the feedback coming and thanks for helping make Xbox great! I'll see you on Xbox Live.

A member of the Eldrid faction who was raised as a healer, but forced to be a warrior, Alani is all that remains of her order after Rendain's Jennerit Imperium stole the oceans from her world. As a warrior from a planet with vast seas, Alani's attacks and abilities revolve around her power to control water to dish out pain, or heal her fellowBattleborn.

Here's even more good news: Hero Keys are reusable! If you complete the challenge objective or reach the required Command Rank at any time after unlocking a hero using a Hero Key, then that Hero Key will be returned to you and you can then use that Hero Key to unlock another hero.

Battleborn Open Beta Infographic
On the heels of the Battleborn Open Beta which saw over 2 million players take up arms to fight for the last star in the universe, 2K and Gearbox Software have crunched the numbers, discovering which heroes dealt the most damage, which PVP mode saw the greatest traffic, and perhaps the most important question of all, if a little S1 Sentry Unit named Geoff ever realized his dreams of becoming Arachnis, the Spider King, Lord of all Spiders.
CD PROJEKT RED, creator of The Witcher games series, announces the release of new screenshots from the upcoming expansion to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Blood and Wine.
"I can already tell you Blood and Wine is a fascinating story, with every sort of twist and turn you'd expect from our writers," said Marcin Momot, Senior Social Media and Community Coordinator, CD PROJEKT RED.
"Toussaint, the new realm we're creating for the expansion, is unlike anything you've seen in Wild Hunt – carefree and colorful, but your gut never stops telling you that there's some real dark stuff happening underneath all that," Momot adds. "We'll be revealing more information in May, however, to sweeten the wait, here are some fresh screenshots from the expansion!"

Players can register now for the chance to participate and dominate, in LawBreakers' upcoming series of public Alpha tests on http://www.lawbreakers.com , becoming one of the first to get their hands on the highly anticipated game. Dates for the Alpha tests have not yet been announced, but fans can sign up via the website or Wishlist LawBreakers on Steam to be first in the know.
LawBreakers is a first-person shooter in which even the laws of physics can be shattered, creating intense gravity-based combat and resulting in an ever-evolving and bloody arena. Set in a futuristic rebuilt America, players will choose whether to kill for the nobility of the "Law," or go out for blood as a "Breaker," as they take part in the conflict raging across iconic locations including the boiling oceans off the Santa Monica coastline, to a gravity ravaged Grand Canyon and nearly unrecognizable Mount Rushmore.
The team at Boss Key Productions recently revealed a more distinct look and tone for their game, setting LawBreakers apart in a crowded market by embracing the mature attitude of Cliff's initial vision. In addition to revamping the reimagined – and Shura-owned – Grand Canyon in the Grandview Map, Boss Key has expanded their cast of ruthless antiheroes. Hellion and Bomchelle have joined the side of the "Law", and two more characters, Kintaro and Toska-9, are allied with the "Breakers". These new killers round out the current slate of characters involved in this brutal conflict and give both sides mirrored roles with complementary weapons and abilities. These additions will create a more balanced gameplay experience, giving players access to all the current roles, represented in a symmetric fashion, whether they play as "Law" or "Breakers"
Fans who want to jump into the energetic gravity-based combat and dominate the competition can register now for the chance to be selected for a series of public Alpha tests.
If you're attending PAX East this weekend, you can also play LawBreakers in booth #5116 in the Boston Convention Center. Everyone who plays will collect exclusive swag and a chance to commemorate their best kill with a custom-made video clip shared digitally on social media.
Boss Key recently announced LawBreakers will be a premium digital game, and a Steam exclusive at launch. For more information, or to register for the Alpha tests, please visit: http://www.lawbreakers.com .

Skip to comments.Drought: Feds cut water to Central Valley farmers to zero [California Democrats don't give a dam]
Posted on 02/22/2014 10:36:24 AM PST by Jim Robinson
Central Valley farmers took a crippling blow Friday when U.S. officials made the unprecedented announcement that they would get no irrigation water from the federal government this year because of the drought.
But growers in a region with the country's most productive soil said the loss of one of their chief water supplies won't be their problem alone: Consumers will be hit hard in the form of higher prices at the produce market.
California's unusually dry weather is forcing producers of fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains to make tough decisions about which crops to plant, and which ones not to plant due to a lack of water, leaving harvests that are likely to fall short of demand.
A recent estimate by an industry group, the California Farm Water Coalition, suggested that as much as 600,000 acres of land, or about 8 percent of the state's total, could be left fallow in the coming year.
Jay Lund, who heads the Center for Watershed Sciences at UC Davis, said products from other parts of the world will fill some of the void, easing the impact on price.
"They'll go up a little bit," Lund said. "But I don't think it will be catastrophic. Time will tell."

My son lives in the central valley. It's bad. California needs to get its head out of their rear and do the right thing. Shutting down the valley's agriculture for what, a fish? We're not merely talking state's rights here. We're talking the survival of the source of 1/4 of America's food. Idiots.
If the farmers go bankrupt, what are the Liberals going to eat?
So ... everybody's gonn'a talk and analyze this ... right ?
Desalinization of sea-water is the logical solution to the situation in California, but the communists, er... environmentalists, will not allow it.
If our nation truly wanted a green revolution we would proceed full speed ahead on the new generation of nuclear energy and this would make desalinization affordable. It would also create hundreds of thousands of new jobs with the cheap energy that is the lifeblood of tomorrow's manufacturing.
Win - win for everyone but the communists.
Hopefully, God will help us.
Rain Finally Back in the Forecast for California
AccuWeather ^ | February 22, 2014 | By Kristina Pydynowski
by Brad from Tennessee
The second half of the upcoming week will feature soaking rain and mountain snow returning to drought-stricken California.
Confidence is growing for California to receive a substantial amount of rain and mountain snow from two storm systems later next week.
The first system is scheduled to move through California Wednesday through Thursday with the second to follow for Friday through the first part of the next weekend.
The second is likely to be the stronger and wetter of the two systems, bringing a much-needed soaking to many communities (with the deserts being the exception).
If the first storm bypasses or only grazes Southern California, the second will not. It is possible that Downtown Los Angeles receives at least half of the rain that fell in all of 2013 (3.60 inches) from this one storm Friday through next week.
Several inches of rain could soak the northern California coast, while feet of snow may blanket the Sierra. Snow levels could drop low enough to whiten the mountains of Southern California. . .
it will be catastrophic for our farmers and the workers....to hell with this getting produce from other countries...I want American grown fruits and vegetables to choose from...
Looks like they're planning on eating imported produce from Mexico.
Be real the liberals don't care about some damn fish. All they are worried about is filling up their swimming pools.
The owners of central valley farms wouldn't happen to mostly lean toward one political party by any chance, would they?
Mother Gaia will take care of its children. She will provide organic manna for them.

Lets float some more water bond initiatives and see if they hold water now.

Shutting off the farmer's water makes sense too, if you are trying to kill them off.

My wife asked why south of Sacramento on 99 or I5 the land looked like a desert.
My answer was, the counties down 101 are blue counties and apparently get all of the water they need and don't have worry about a red legged frog or a delta smelt, unlike the farmers/ranchers in the dry Red Counties.
cui bono? is Latin for "who benefits?" It is the single most important question to ask when evaluating any (usually political or criminal) 'maneouver'.
The: "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?""Who watches the watchmen?" In this case, the Bureau of Reclamation which controls the water in the State of California.
Suddenly, true organic farming rears it's ugly head.
Mooch will figure something out.
Ya know, up until the 1980's, a government entity making such a unilateral move against the population would be tantamount to an act of war. Yes, even in the good old USA.
In the 90's, and even into the first decade, there would be massive protests, which itself could force political change.
I know this. Mr. Head knows this. We've seen it all before.
This is for those in the affected areas who think a nice, hand - written letter to your Congress person or whining on this forum can change course.
This move in California ' s Central Valley places thousands on American lives at stake. This is not a dem vs gop thing. It's a matter of a good 20% of America's food production. It's a matter of survival. Those that have rights to the water in the valley should not allow under any circumstances their natural resources to be stolen.

Where's the revolution?

Thanks JimRob.
Last year I started learning to grow food plants from seed and hope this spring, summer, and fall, I will grow my own veggies. I'm well on the way to having my spring veggies in their final containers to produce food.
I didn't know this was going to happen to California, so now I'm glad I started learning to grow my own. My veggies won't come from Mexico or some other country and there won't be any chemicals on my plants and no hands will have touched them but me. I have a small backyard but it's going to produce food with plants in containers.
Learn to grow your own veggies and piss off Hussein Obama and his corrupted Democrats.
"Filling their swimming pools"
I do not live in California, so I can't claim any knowledge of the situation there-but while we don't have many "save the purple trashminnow-that-no-one-eats" people here, we do have the city people who insist on filling their pools, pouring enough water every week on commercial and residential lots planted with everything native to the Florida Keys to keep 4 families of 6 in showers and drinking water for three months, and they don't care if farmers don't have any water as long as they do-are there a lot of these people in California, too?
The Boy Scouts taught me how me how to desalinize water with a few sticks, a couple pots & some tin foil. That wouldn't work on the scale they need but it would (should) still be pretty easy. Of course being Cali., with all their regulations & unions, it would end up costing MUCH more that it should. Still, a couple wind turbines, a few solar panels, an electric coil, 2 collection tanks & a pipeline leading to the lakes they want to fill are really all that's required for one plant. Streisand could fund it all with her takings from one concert.
It's time for a Tea Party.
They are changing diapers in the Ukraine, perhaps its time to change some diapers here.
I bet there are democrats buying up the land cheap after cutting off the water and forcing the owners to sell.
Can you say, 'Collective Farming'? I thought you could. The increasing pressure on those who 'produce' continues. The 'Progressives' are on track with Health Care, energy is on the agenda, Food comes next.
After all, 'they' didn't build it. They Shoulda known their ground depended on the kindness of the government.
I expect desalinization is farther out than the Columbia River pipeline. For a couple decades now Kalifornia has drooled over the prospect of running a 24 foot diameter pipeline from the mouth of the Columbia, down the coast range, to the central valley. Taken from near the mouth , the Columbia would never miss it, moving the sea water about 6 inches farther inland. If it helps keep Kalifornians in California I'm all for it. They've been quiet about the idea for a few years but this dry time might very well fire up the conversation again and it seems like the kind of "shovel ready" job the Kenyan would love? And as with Patton crossing the Rhine it would give me new enthusiasm for piddling in the river.
The irrigation canals from Grand Coulee Dam have been a huge economic blessing and like you said, the river does not miss the small amount of water that is diverted.
A pipeline from the Columbia makes too much sense. There are lots of major infrastructure projects that would greatly benefit our nation, but the threat of litigation and special interests make them nothing more than pipe dreams. Pun intended.
Desalinization plants with pipelines on the coast of California would be more than adequate and cost-effective if we removed the obstacles. All that is required is cheap electricity that could be provided by new nuclear technology and a willingness to allow it all to happen.
If California could provide it's own affordable electricity it would also lower the electricity costs of it's neighbors benefitting the region.
The irony is that one of the main arguments against water development is protecting plant and animal life when they would flourish just as much as we would. The animal/plant life in the Columbia Basin greatly benefits from the irrigation projects.
Oh yes they do, they want the land for their buddies in the development business and those buying ag land abroad. They want the Central Valley out of business. They don't want America to be self-sustaining in food production. I saw this coming nearly five years ago.
The key fact is that water is more valuable for development than it is for agriculture. As long as that is true the crooks in the "investment" business are going to tweak things against farming. They're "investing" in farming overseas in "places more appropriate for farming (see "comparative advantage" and "free trade"). So they get the trade agreements they want, push those annoying owners off their land, so that they come running to cities, including here, looking to be the customer base for their housing. That they'll subsidize exactly the same way they are doing now using your tax dollars to feed, clothe, educate, and medicate their brainwashed children up to speed, you know, until things are "fair." They'll make better slaves because they already know the score. Americans are too deluded with relic ideas of "freedom" to be quite as useful.
You really didn't think that Democrats like Pat and Jerry were going to let the "wrong people" make money did you? They got the farmers to pony up the cash for the construction of this massive investment subsidy (the California Water Project), by teasing them into salivating at a profit in real estate. They got the farmers to pay for the infrastructure and let them hold the bag until the big boys saw the right time. They had to wait until they were finished building out the desert anyway. The recession plus the idiot voters wishing up a passenger train boondoggle presents exactly such an opportunity.
Smelt, smelt, oh no, the smelt are dying... uh, the farmers are still hanging on... Oh steelhead, salmon, oh the humanity!!! (they're more photogenic anyway.) So it goes. I'll bet whoever wrote that biological opinion will end up running a lab.

The biggest developer of Sustainable Development "stack and pack" housing is Catellus Development, aka ChiFi's husband Richard Blum. The biggest stockholder in Catellus is CalPERS. The left is leveraging public pension money to build prison-cities, with the bureaucrats enforcing the means to force people out of suburbs having their pensions tied to the success of that effort, else the taxpayers have to pony up to pay for said inflated pensions.
Quite the deal.
As produce production goes down, and prices rise, I think red area farmers should sell their produce to blue counties for a much higher price (all across the nation), to subsidize being able to keep the prices stable for red counties and states. Reward those who vote sanely, and penalize the tyrants.
Who cares if blue country liberals think it's unfair? They are being their typical dictatorial selves and once again ruining an American industry. It's time that for once THEY pay the price for what they are doing to everyone else.
Do you have links/posts/etc that you could collate into a resource? Your hypothesis sounds tyrannical and draconian... and all too likely, given the fascist tendencies of the American Left.
When I was living in kalifonia I remember some idiot from the heartland who came to san fransicko just to visit the sierra club headquarters. He expected to see a bunch of euel gibbons types. Instead he found three martini lunch sipping suits who were running a scam. They were inventing environmental causes just to keep the suckers sending money.
I think that's what this is. Just an ongoing scam.
Truly, if I wanted to make a million dollars, I'd start some leftwing cause. Those idiots are too stupid to think for themselves. They'd send money regardless.
The basic understanding came from research done for my book, Natural Process: That Environmental Laws May Serve the Laws of Nature. A lot of the data about CalPERS and Catellus came from a book by disaffected leftist reporter, Richard Trainor: Paradise Lost? The rest was obvious. I have a lot more on such machinations and (more importantly) how they were integrated into our laws from the beginning here.

I don't want to burst any ones bubble but there is not enough water to go around this year. I'm in far northern cali. The snow pack isn't, the lakes are almost dry, and it is not raining and snowing enough to even slow down the water decline.
What I'm really trying to point out is that the cities in Cali will suck up the water for their green grass and swimming pools. We need the water for the orchards and crops. The row crops in the central valley just won't get planted this year. No profit but the ground will still be there next year. It is the orchards that are in danger. If we do not water the trees and they die it will take more than a decade to replant and regrow trees to production.
The buttheads in the cities don't care. They just want green grass and full swimming pools. I'm all for making them pay 5X for food and selling them water by the drop.
This is not good news.
My sister and her family live in Dos Palos. My brother-in-law does a lot of work in the ag business. They told me things were dry out there and it looked like business was going to slow down. This can not help!
What? Farmers? What do they have to do with food supplies?
Good for you. News like this will not have an impact on you and should not impact your life.
Prepare to survive and survive to prepare....
I drove over the Sierra Nevada range yesterday on I-80, and it was kind of strange. There was less snow on the ground than you would see in late spring, and it's still only February.
The parking lot at Boreal Ridge was full, though. It was probably pretty nice playing on the slopes in 55 degree weather.
"It's China town"—
"He who controls the water controls everything."
Lately, I have been referring a lot of people to that movie. It is amazing how many have seen it and forget about the water and its control, or ignored that reality of living in California.
Yet, in Southern California, while we're being asked to conserve water and are under threat of rationing, LARGE apartment/condos continue to be built everywhere displacing single family homes. Don't all of those massive new building require water??
