Better Than Sex in 'San Andreas'; Yr Own Plumber's Crack
Not since Psychonauts, has there been a game this crazy interesting. FLIPNIC makes pinball so wacky, so other-worldly, so jazzed up and caffeinated, that it's like a trip to an amusement park designed without the constraints of money, safety . . . or gravity. The way these programming artists have imagined pinball is a source of constant surprise. Yeh, they've learned some from Sierra's old 3D Ultra Pinball and from Nintendo's Mario Pinball Land, but the stuff here, which can be like Pachinko meets Super Monkey Ball meets your favorite roller coaster ride, is simply genius. I know, the voiceover isn't excited or funny enough. And the cut scene animations aren't all that, but it's the Steven-Hawking-inventiveness of the bumpers and shoots and UFO's and butterflies on the playfield that keep you coming back. All this for $19.99. Aside from the free mod that lets you open sex scenes in San Andreas, this is the gaming deal of the summer. But FlipNic is the truer ass like that.
SOAKED!, Atari's expansion disk for RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, lets you create the most twisting, turning, plumber's nightmare of water parks with rides that are limited only by your gray matter. You don't just mope nerdily and gaze longingly at the rides. You are the god-like designer who can make them as surreal or as scary as you want them to be. If you want to reconstruct something akin to Six Flags' overly chlorinated Hurricane Harbor, you can do that, tooand make it better. One of the wonderfully vertigo-inducing features within Soaked! is the "Coaster Cam," which offers you a first-person view on whichever kind of water ride you make.
Destroy All Humans!
For: PS2, Xbox
Publisher: THQ
Upcoming Events
Developer: Pandemic Studios
Plan 9 from Outer Space was probably the first so-good-it's-bad sci-fi film. Sadly eternally etched within my gray matter is the line, "Modern women. They've been like that all down through the ages." Inspired by Ed Wood and other crappy B flick directors, the makers of DESTROY ALL HUMANS! have outdone themselves with a brilliantly, beautifully designed game about a Beavis and Butthead-looking alien who comes down to earth to harvest brain stems. His race has no mojo at all down there, so a DNA strand is as good as 10cc for these miscreants. There's so much here: an unlockable of Plan 9, witty writing (at its best when you read the minds of the dumb humans in the game), a flying saucer with a kick-ass death ray, and satire that's sometimes only a notch or two below the writing in the seminal Dr. Strangelove. Of course, for you Ernest Goes to Camp fans, there's an anal probe to examine those holier-than-thou heartlander farmers and their desperate housewives. As one of the housewives wails, "Ouchie, ouchie, ouchie!"
Zoo Tycoon 2
For: PC
Publisher: Microsoft Games
Developer: Blue Fang Games
Aw, look at all the pretty animals. Hey, don't just look at 'em. Raise apes. Care for ailing gators. Shovel the mammoth poop of elephants. Add waterfalls and do it freestyle. Make a pile of cash from your overly expensive gift shop. Also, you're not bound to observing animals from above: ZOO TYCOON 2 offers first-person views should you want them so you can walk among your wildlife. Forget the San Diego Zoo, baby, you can be the Frank Gehry of zoo designers. There's even a half-decent DVD from the National Geographic Channel included in the box. And it's all a lot more fun than the damn suburban Sims.
Batman Begins
For: PS2, Xbox
Publisher: EA Games
Developer: Eurocom Entertainment Software
Along with the dark, moody movie comes the game BATMAN BEGINS from Electronic Arts. This is a decent enough action-adventure game with shadowy, stealth elements. You get to save pretty Katie Holmes, too (but too bad you can't save her from Scientology, which is really scary). Speaking of scary, this game is not. Chris Nolan's movie touches on the nature of fear, and actually has some frightful moments. The game talks a lot about fear, but never inspires it in the gamer when danger is imminent. I'd suggest that all game producers the world over read about fear in books aside from the notes in a screenplay. The first chapter in American Purgatorio is a good start. For something more pop, try The Stand. Next time, please, scare me, make me shudder insanely, make me tremble, just one damn goosebump, I beg of you.
For: Nintendo DS
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Q Entertainment
If you mooned over the frantic, electronica-inspired Lumines puzzle game for the PSP, you'll probably become addicted to METEOS for the DS. Meteos is kind of like a Tetrisonly it blasts off. By that I mean, line up the Meteos blocks with your stylus until you fill a column. Whoosh! Up they go, usually with more oomph than that solar sailing thing that Mrs. Sagan invested in and watched fall to the ground. If, however, you've let too many Meteos gather, getting them to launch is hard, like skinny David Spade trying to bench press 400 pounds. There's also a goal here, to save your world, as you zip to different planets in the "Star Trip" mode. It's a nice little extra that'll keep you coming back for more.

In Brief: Chinese tycoon treats homeless to lunch
A Chinese tycoon was scheduled Wednesday to pick up the tab to feed hundreds of homeless New Yorkers some fancy food -- in Central Park.
The lunch for 250 residents of a Manhattan shelter was served Wednesday at the Boathouse restaurant.
Recycling magnate Chen Guangbiao offered them sesame-seed-encrusted tuna, beef filet and berries with creme fraiche. Entertainment was also planned. And he promised each guest $300.
Chen says he wants to disprove the cliche image of rich Chinese spending money mostly on luxuries.
U.S. weighs lawsuits on insurance kickbacks
The government is considering whether to sue banks and other mortgage servicers to recover its losses from alleged insurance kickbacks that may have cost government-controlled mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac hundreds of millions of dollars, according to an internal report.
The Federal Housing Finance Agency, which is responsible for guarding Fannie and Freddie's finances, told its inspector general's office that it will consider filing the lawsuits and will make a formal decision over the next year.

Wow!!! These are great cookies!! I didn't make this to give away, so just made it to have cookies for the family. My 17 yo DS loves oatmeal cookies and these were no exception, although first time adding chocolate chips. I loved that the edges are nice and crispy but the center is soft and chewy!! Thanks for sharing your recipe. Made for your win in Healthy Choices Tag Game Special!!
These were my sons favorite cookie until they came out with cinnamon chips. Well then he found another favorite. But still these are awesome cookies. I made these into jars for family and they wanted the whole recipe. I love the way the cinnamon gives a nice flavor to these cookies. They are very easy to either put into a jar or make all on your own. They are a keeper.

This Distribution lasts until the ninth so you have about 4 days before it ends. Its pretty cool too because Raikou starts at level 30, but it gains extra Exp. because it is treated like a traded pokemon. Entei is next on the 17th, and Suicune is on the 31st of this month and each one lasts about a week to receive. See yall later going upstairs to train Raikou.

Catholic in the Public Square
Then, the scribes and pharisees demanded a sign from Him. But He answered them,
An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign. But no sign shall be given to it but the sign of Jonah.
Gethsemane is far more than the physical garden where Jesus prayed the night He was taken.
Gethsemane is a place in the human heart, a destination we all reach. Some of us will go there many times in our lives.
Gethsemane is what I call The Alone. It is that stripped-bare moment when the pretenses and self lies that sustain us in our illusion of invincibility and significance are taken from us. Gethsemane is the realization that we are alone in a way that the glad-handing niceties of human interaction hide from us.
Emotions such as loneliness and even despair are trivialities when contrasted with the stark solitary helplessness of The Alone. It is a stunning thing to look into the eyes of another human being and see satan looking back at you. It is a soul-scouring reality to face the insignificance we really are to other people.
That is Gethsemane, and it is what Jesus faced for you. And for me.
Can you not wait with me one hour? He asked the disciples, and the question vibrates with the isolating aloneness that prompted it.
He had to face the awfulness of what was coming without human succor or understanding. When they came, when Judas struck Him to the heart with a kiss of betrayal, when He looked into the pitiless eyes of Satan, staring at him from another human face, He was alone.
That was Christ's Gethsemane. Our Gethsemane, even though it will differ, is in some ways like it.
My friend Linda Caswell is director of All Things New, a ministry that shelters and redeems women who have been trafficked and prostituted. These women know The Alone, not as an event or passage, but as the whole of their lives. They have inhabited The Alone the way you and I inhabit our jobs, families and lives, because it has been their lives.
Most of these women have had very few positive contacts with people of faith. They avoid churches because the men who have bought them are also in the churches. Their only safety is in Jesus, but they do not understand that at first.
When Linda shows them the movie that Mel Gibson made, The Passion of the Christ, it inevitably breaks through the hard shell of their defenses. Women who do not understand the Gospels as anything but a lie told by lying liars who buy and sell them break down and sob uncontrollably when they see Jesus humiliated, beaten, tortured and disregarded.
This Jesus, the One who prayed "let this cup pass" in Gethsemane, they understand. And by the miracle of the grace of the cross, they believe that this Jesus understands them.
Their lives, which have been an unending Gethsemane, open to this Brother God who was beaten, tortured, humiliated and disregarded as they have been.
Because He understands. Because He does not disregard them. Because He is the only One who can go with them into The Alone of their personal Gethsemanes.
Jesus Christ suffered for us to redeem us from our sins, from the things we've done. He also suffered to redeem us from the things that have been done to us. In this cruel world, the things that are done to us can cut deeper and leave us less able to see the Divine than our sins.
We put people outside the bright circles of acceptability that we draw around ourselves and those we deem worthy. We cast them into the hell of unending Gethsemane where no one keeps vigil with them and no one cares that they are alone.
Only Jesus, Who has been there, can penetrate The Alone of our lives. He is the One, the only One, who can draw people back from the man-made abyss of life lived in The Alone where we cast so many of the people that He died to save.
It is important to remember this at all times, but especially today when we re-enact the Last Supper. Jesus was becoming Christ on this night when He gave us the Eucharist and the servant priesthood. He was teaching us how to love with a love that passes all human understanding and how to live the life of the Kingdom in this world. He was showing us that even in our Gethsemane, even in the deepest pit of The Alone, we are never alone, for He is always there.
And he will keep watch with us, not just for an hour, but for the whole of this life and into the one beyond.
Pope Francis gave priests a homily at today's Chrism Mass that could only come from a fellow pastor of souls who is also a pope.
The Chrism Mass is the annual mass at which the holy oils are blessed. These oils are used to anoint priests when they take their vows, as well as the laity during several sacraments.
Pastoring God's people is a difficult task. Ministry to people of any sort is always difficult, because it requires the minster to empty themselves and to go beyond themselves into the other person's needs. Every mother knows this to her core.
The priesthood is, in this way, a kind of parenthood, and like all parenthood, it is the end of me first and the beginning of living for God by living for and loving others.
A good priest is God's instrument. God can and does reach right through him and into the hearts of His people. This is an awesome responsibility, to speak for God to hurting people.
Priests need our prayers, and sometimes, they need our forgiveness, as well.
Pope Francis washed the feet of 12 elderly and disable people today, including the feet of a Muslim and — gasp! — a woman.
I love our loving pope.
Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve.
According to the folks at the History Channel, NatGeo and other purveyors of revisionist Christianity, Judas Iscariot was a well-meaning, misunderstood victim of his own good intentions.
Every year at this time, we are treated to shows that expose us to experts we've never heard of before expounding on how Judas didn't really mean it. He was, they tell us with remarkable certainty, just trying to provoke Jesus into defending Himself and starting a revolution. Judas wanted a warrior messiah who would throw off the Roman yoke and return Israel to the glory days of Kings David and Solomon, they say.
Instead, he got this gentle healer and teacher who refused, as Scripture tells us, to bruise a reed.
So, Judas took things into his own hands. He set Jesus up with the intention of having Him throw off his attackers like Samson slaying the Philistines. What he got instead was a crucified Lord and guilt that destroyed him.
It's difficult, 2,000 years later, to determine Judas' intentions. Whatever he intended to happen, his failure of faith doomed him in the end.
Notice, I do not say that his betrayal of our Lord doomed him. I don't say it, because that didn't do it.
Peter betrayed Jesus, as did all the Apostles except John. Peter suffered the ignominy of denying that he even knew Jesus. He denied Jesus repeatedly, and then, at the critical moment, when he was actively cursing Jesus, he turned and saw his Master looking at him while he did it.
That black night was such a welter of misery and betrayal. It was, as Jesus said, Satan's hour.
There is such poignance to the things Jesus said during this time. The hurt echoes in the statement, Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?
Think about it for a moment. Judas knew Him. He had traveled with Him, ate with Him, followed, listened and been near Him for years. He'd seen the miracles, experienced the love. Then, whatever his motives, he betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. And he did it with a kiss.
Jesus' sadness, not for Himself, but for Judas, reverberates down the centuries. Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?
But it wasn't the kiss the doomed Judas. It wasn't the thirty pieces of silver or the betrayal. It was Judas' lack of faith.
In the final analysis, the thing that separates Judas and Peter is faith.
Is it faith, or is it weakness to turn to God with our sins and confess them to the depths of their utter blackness? Is it faith or is it brokenness that makes us throw ourselves on His mercy and seek forgiveness we know we do not deserve and can never earn?
It is lack of faith, or is it pride that keeps others from admitting their crimes against God? What causes one person to seal themselves inside their sinfulness and die there, while another reaches out like they were drowning and grasps the nail-scarred hand?
I think all these things are factors to differing degrees with different people. But in Judas' case, it was most likely a lack of faith. Judas had no pride when he went to the priests and threw the money at them. "I have betrayed an innocent man," he said.
He had no problem admitting the truth of what he had done. He just didn't admit it to the right person. The priests, now that they had their prey, no longer found Judas useful. "What is that to us," they replied to his anguished admission. "See to it yourself."
One might ask what kind of priests these really were who would turn away a sin-sick man so coldly. But such a question would be redundant. They were corrupt priests who had plotted, bribed and bullied their way to the execution of an innocent man in order to preserve their delicately balanced position of power in occupied Israel.
Did they know this innocent man was God? I don't think so. After all, Jesus, when He prayed for them, said they know not what they do.
But they did know He was innocent. They did know the lies, bribes and political maneuvering they had committed to bring about His death. They knew what they had done, and they were, as Jesus described them earlier in His ministry, indifferent with great hardness of heart.
Judas confessed his sin. But he confessed it to the wrong person. He went to corrupt priests who told him to "see to it" himself.
Peter, after enduring what must have been unbearable grief and shame, took his sin to Christ.
Judas could and would have been forgiven. All he had to do was humble himself and ask for it of the Man he had betrayed.
The lesson in all this for us is not so much that we should never betray a friend — although that is certainly a worthwhile lesson to learn. The lesson is that, no matter what we have done, we can find forgiveness in the merciful heart of Jesus.
No matter what we have done. No matter how many times we have done it. No matter how horrible or trivial it is. We are sinners. And we need the forgiveness of the only One who has the right to forgive. We need tthe forgiveness of the Living Christ.
Confession is not a way of sidestepping this forgiveness, it is a conduit of its grace. The priest does not and cannot forgive us. He does not and cannot confer newness of life on us. Those things come only from Christ Jesus.
Confession is a simple and accessible way to meet the Risen Lord. it is contact with Christ through the graces of the Church.
However, the healing comes from one place only, and that is the Heart of Our Lord. Even though we should all go to confession, we should never wait to take our sins to Jesus.
If you have sinned — and we all have — turn to Him immediately and ask forgiveness. Then, go to confession when it's available to you.
Then, Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, Scripture tells us.
Simon, Satan has asked to have you, that he may sift you like wheat, Jesus warned Peter.
Satan had his day with both these men. One of them emerged stronger, the rock on which Christ would build His Church.
The other went out and hanged himself.
They both repented of their sins, and grieved them deeply. The difference is who they asked for forgiveness.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - It was a mixed bag when Texico's basketball teams squared off with squads from Penasco on Friday at the Pit.
But the good ended with one squad bringing home a championship.
The Texico girls won the Class 2A championship, their first state title since 2002 and fifth overall, while the Texico boys were knocked off in the semifinal round.
In the girls' 41-38 victory against Penasco (24-2), Texico (27-4) fell behind late in the first quarter, but doggedly stayed close to the Panthers until finally overtaking them in the fourth quarter. With 5:39 left, Wolverines' guard Faith Martin drained a 3-pointer to give Texico a 29-26 lead - an advantage the team would not relinquish.
Asked whether it was the biggest shot she ever made, Martin answered in the affirmative.
"I'd say so. I was pretty scared, but I'm glad it went in," said Martin, who finished with a team-high 11 points.
"Maybe for the first time in my life, I'm at a loss for words," Texico coach Keith Durham said. "They certainly peaked at the right time. I'm just so proud of these young ladies."
The Panthers were consistently ranked No. 1 throughout the season, although the Panthers drew the second-seed in the tourney.
"Penasco's got a great basketball team. It's a situation where, when you finally get a chance to knock off No. 1 and do it, it's a great feeling," Durham said.
Down the stretch, the Wolverines missed six straight free throw attempts in the last minute as Penasco, behind by three, tried to tie up the game. With four seconds left, Texico's Victoria Richards picked off an errant inbounds pass and raced toward the Wolverines' goal to seal the win. Richards' older sister Elizabeth was a staple on the Texico squads that won three straight titles from 2000-02.
The younger Richards said she got a brief word of encouragement from older sister before the game.
"She called me and said, 'Play pretty,'" Richards said. "That's what we always say to each other."
The Texico boys, in a 62-52 defeat, lost touch with Penasco at the midway portion of the first quarter when the Panthers broke away with a 15-2 run for a 24-9 advantage. The Wolverines started to clip into the lead in the semifinal contest and eventually crept to within three points at the 3:30 mark of the third quarter.
That occured when junior Courtland Luscombe popped a 3-pointer to make the score 37-34. Penasco (23-7) countered with a bucket by Bobby Richardson who, after being fouled, converted an extra free throw for a six-point margin.
Texico (23-6) then got a pair of free throws from Ruben Lindley, the team's only senior. But the Panthers then rallied the last seven points of the quarter to pull away again.
In the regional round, Texico won at Lordsburg by staging a late rally. In the 2A quarterfinals, the Wolverines came from behind to beat Pecos.
"Sometimes you can't keep putting yourself in that position or you're going to run out of luck," Texico coach Richard Luscombe said. "Penasco's a good team and it's tough to come back against a good team."

In Brief: 4 arrested after shots fired in east Erie
4 arrests made after Erie gunfire incident
Erie police arrested four suspects Thursday evening after shots were fired near the intersection of East 23rd and Reed streets.
The incident was reported at about 6:30 p.m., police said. Witnesses heard the shots and saw two vehicles.
Police found one of the vehicles near East 29th and French streets, and found two guns in the vehicle.
Passenger hurt in Bayfront Parkway crash
One man suffered minor injuries Thursday night when the car in which he was riding rolled over on the Bayfront Parkway just north of East Sixth Street.
The accident occurred around 9:30 p.m. A Ford sedan was traveling north on the parkway when it ran off the road and rolled onto its right side.
The man was treated at the scene by EmergyCare personnel for a wrist injury. No other information was available Thursday night.
Man pleads in hammer death; judge to decide
EBENSBURG -- A western Pennsylvania man has pleaded guilty to a charge of criminal homicide for killing his father with a hammer before breaking into his safe and stealing money to buy drugs.
But a Cambria County judge must still decide the degree of 32-year-old Jonathan Kuzma Jr.'s guilt at a hearing in August.
The Johnstown man was arrested after the Aug. 2 death of 52-year-old John Kuzma.
Authorities contend Kuzma hit his father twice with the hammer, stabbed him 15 times and took cash, prescription drugs, and a handgun, then tried to buy heroin in several places while alerting relatives that he had killed his father.
Education funding panel holds meeting
HARRISBURG -- A 15-member commission that will recommend how Pennsylvania should change how it funds public education is up and running.
The Basic Education Funding Commission held its first meeting Thursday.
The commission has about a year to complete its work and recommend changes to the formula used to divide $5.5 billion in annual state support among the 500 districts and charter schools.
Education Secretary Carolyn Dumaresq said the key factor needs to be the number of students enrolled in each school and district.

One of the really great things about working in a post effects and composing program like Nuke is that we can add on things like depth of field and glow after the render is done in 3ds Max. This may sound fairly small, but it's really a giant thing. Here's why. If we render out depth of field in the camera in the 3ds Max either through mental ray or by using the multi pass effect in the camera, that depth of field is baked in. It is part of that image and we can't take out the blur easily. It's also a longer render time.
We may see a doubling or tripling of our render time to get depth of field going. And occasionally, this is the choice we make when the depth of field needs to be rendered in the camera. But if we have the choice to do it in pose, it makes it so easy to simply push around where the focal point is, and how much blur we have. It also allows us in a composite shot then, to match the depth of field to our composited CG elements into a real background plate. Here's how I make this work, and I'll start out on the daylight image. I've got my depth pass.
It's a targa that rendered out as one of my render elements. It's also part of the mass EXR, and so I have a couple of different places I can get this from. In this depth targa, I've got white in the foreground, tapering to a medium grey in the background. In the mask EXR and I'll press one to show it after I've clicked on it. I have got that depth as one of the layers. When we render out EXRs, we can see in here. Dropping down under RGBA, that we've got depth. It's up to you where you would like to use it. Either taking the depth from the EXR or taking the depth luminance over into a depth and a flow.
We can use it in both ways and to have that flexibility is the real key. I'll start out then, by copying that depth in. Because it's in a different image than my main flow. I'll pick my grade two and press one to show it. I'll make sure in my viewer that I'm showing the RGB alpha, and now I'm going to get the depth in. I'll use my depth Targa, selecting it and pressing. K for copy. In a copy node, again it's a over b, and I'll make the b in the copy node, my grade.
With a copy selected, I'll press one, and at the moment there's no change. What I'll do then, is copy in the copy channels RGBA red two depth.z. The reason we do this is that the order is typically RGB. So it's customary when your dealing with an imagine that is a grey scale or just luminous to take the first channel. You could also take green or blue if you wanted but usually the first one work just fine. What we're saying then is copy that red to the apparent Z-depth in the scene so we can the field on it.
Now get the depth on. With my copy selected, I'll right click and choose filter and ZD focus down at the bottom. In the ZD focus note, we've got an incoming image and a filter. And the filter is there if we need a Bokeh blur. If we've got bright points or specular highlights that need to blur out into hexagons, for example, other other shapes. Because I want a fairly wide depth on this, I'm not going to see that shallow focus that gives me a Bokeh blur. In the depth then. Making sure it's showing by pressing one. I've got a focal point, and I'm going to layout or organize my nodes, just a little bit, so I can get to things a little easier.
And then make that viewport a little bigger. Here's what I'll do. I'll pick all of the nodes in this particular nodes in this particular flow. Picking one, holding shift, and picking another. And I'll press L for layout, then I'll take that newly organized flow and slide it over. I'll do the same on my other side, again selecting all the pieces except for my viewer and pressing L for layout. I'll pull this second flow over, and now I've got a little more organization in my node graph. Now in that ZD focus. And I'll slide the timeline down to get a little more room here.
I can pull around the focal point placing it where I'd like to focus in on the image and updates in here, pushing that focus to where I specify. In this case I'm focusing on that railing. And we can see in here that it's defocusing by the back block wall. Here's what's going on. In the ZD focus note, we're working by the straight depth in here as oppose to using different math. And we have different ways of dealing with it. What this lets us do and we can see the tool tip on it, is specify how that distance was created.
Far equals negative zero for MIA for example or for running in Renderman or something similar. Then in here, we can say where is the focus plane, and finally, what is the depth of field. Theoretically, depth of field is zero, meaning one point is in focus, and everything else blurs out from there. I'm going to crank up my depth of field a little bit though, so I have a focal plane thickness, or a zone that's in focus. With depth of field up, then, we can alter how much blur we have. There's a size, how much blur we'd like, and a maximum, so at maximum blur how much blur is there? The maximum keeps our image from just blurring out into mush in the deep background, for example.
What I'll do is take that size down to two and the maximum to four. So, most everything is basically in focus, although we're getting a little bit of blur by the back of the roof or the block wall. Most of the house is pretty clean. I'm after the design here or to show it off, so I don't want a shallow focus where everything else just fuzzes out, but instead I want a very deep depth on it where most everything is. Pretty well clear. We can push this around as we need.
And, if you like, we can start to play around with gamma correction and bloom. Really, blowing out an image or even brining in a filter if you're dealing in a Bokeh blur. I'm going to leave this depth as it is and put the same depth of field onto my other image, my dusk shot. In the node graph. I'm going to take my depth of field, my ZD focus and my copy nodes and copy over that depth. With both selected, I'll press Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. We could probably make it work in one flow, but for clarity here in the node graph to keep the flow separate, I'll copy and paste.
The b node in this new copy will be my color correction, the end of that flow. The a then will come from my existing z depth image. I'll pull it on, select that ZD focus two and press one to show it,. I'll pull the timeline down, and there's that depth of field. Again, focusing roughly around the front door. We see the de-focus, right here on the back roof and the black rock wall. Now that I've implied depth of field, I'm ready to look at glow. And also, putting a proper sky behind this.

So once spring practice rolls around, that provides the first chance to speak with most of them since they stepped on campus. TSD caught up with five members of the Class of 2013 set to have big seasons in 2014.
DT Christian Lacouture
The former four-star prospect enrolled last spring and parlayed that into some early playing time as a freshman. He factored into the rotation behind Anthony Johnson and Ego Ferguson, and though he didn't produce eye-popping numbers — 11 tackles and one sack — he gained a lot from that experience.
"You have to learn quick," LaCouture said. "Spring ball was something that really helped me out, knowing the plays, the pace of the game, so by fall ball I was rolling. If you want to be out there, you can't make many mistakes. You can't play timid either. You have to go balls to the wall and know what you're doing."
LaCouture is far from content though. He remains motivated to continue improving in all facets of his game.
"I want to focus on everything," LaCouture said. "You can always get better at everything…Everything you do, you have to make sure you're improving everyday because you can't take one step forward and one step back. You never stay the same."
LaCouture said he added about 10 pounds from his playing weight as a freshman. He now measures 6-foot-5, 304 pounds.
"I'm trying to stay right around there," LaCouture said. "I had to get a little bit bigger than last year. I was playing around 295. That was something I wanted to improve on this spring and summer heading into Wisconsin."
He also had positive things to say about his fellow 2013 defensive tackles, Maquedius Bain and Greg Gilmore.
"Those are my buddies," LaCouture said. "They're like family to me. Especially last year, we really grew together. I was trying to help them, and I'm doing the same thing this year, because they're going to have to play. They're great kids on and off the field. They work their tails off, and everyone's improving."
QB Anthony Jennings
Jennings introduced himself to the LSU fan base with that 99-yard game-winning touchdown drive against Arkansas. That's obviously led to high expectations, but Jennings said he's improved greatly in his first year on campus.
"I'm a lot more confident," Jennings said. "I've been in this system for a year. I feel comfortable with the plays we're running and in that leadership role. I'm not quite as big a leader like Kenny Hilliard and La'El Collins, but I'm trying to increase my IQ and get better."
Jennings will admit he was a "little shaky" last year in the huddle, a bit timid and not extremely confident in making the calls. That's changed though, and Jennings said he's speaking up a lot more to be that vocal leader.
He also spends as much time with Cam Cameron as he can, picking his brain, trying to improve his game.
"I come up here pretty much six days a week so I can talk with him and see what he knows," Jennings said. "I'm just trying to get as much in my arsenal so I can play quarterback at a high level…I just want to become smarter in the game. I just need to know what I can do to get better, so I can be better than I was before."
As for what Jennings thinks he can improve on…
"I can extend plays with my legs, so I'm not worried about that," Jennings said. "I just need to get more accurate, doing the reads, learning the defenses so I know where to throw the ball. I know I can throw the ball with the best of them, so now it's just about showing it."
MLB Kendell Beckwith
Beckwith spent his first season at LSU on the defensive line, but he has since moved back to the linebacker position, which he said feels like home.
"I started off at linebacker when I first came in," Beckwith said. "I can play defensive end because I played that my entire high school career. They wanted to try me there because they knew I could rush off the edge. We gave it a shot, but linebacker is just what I really wanted to play. They didn't have a problem with it."
Beckwith's move is part of a big shakeup at linebacker as John Chavis looks to find the best combination. Beckwith said he's ready to make a big impact in the middle of that defense.
"I'm real confident. I'm very comfortable there. I think I'm more of a linebacker than a defensive end. I can do both, but I feel way more comfortable at linebacker."
WR John Diarse
Diarse had high expectations for his freshman season. He wanted to compete for playing time as LSU's third receiver or at the very least have an impact on special teams. But Diarse severely rolled his ankle two weeks before the start of the season during one-on-one drills.
That setback cost him his freshman year, as the coaches decided to redshirt him while he recuperated from that ankle injury.
"After that I got lost in the shuffle trying to recover during the season," Diarse said. "They came to me and asked if I wanted to redshirt. I decided to take it and it's probably the best decision I've made in my life."
Diarse said that redshirt allowed him to get ahead in classwork and gain a better understanding of the offensive system. Now he's back to full strength and working as LSU's No. 2 wide receiver opposite Travin Dural.
"I'm off to a good start," Diarse said. "I'm glad I came in last spring because I already have a feel for it. Now I can just let my athleticism take over."
CB Tre'Davious White
White came in knowing he had big shoes to fill. Not only is he related to Morris Claiborne, but the two are nearly identical in appearance. It's safe to say though that White definitely left his mark during his first year on campus.
"It was a big deal," White said. "Being Morris Claiborne's godbrother, everybody expected me to be like him. But I came in and just tried play my game and be me. I tried to be the best player I could be."
White's certainly ready to see what 2014 has in store for him. He's added 12 pounds of muscle since he arrived last summer and now weighs 185 pounds.
"They wanted to add weight because they said the SEC is a man's game," White said. "I talked to the strength coach, and I said 'Put some weight on me, but I just want to keep my speed.' That was the biggest thing for me."
White said he hasn't lost a step and all the experience he gained as a freshman was just a starting point.
"It'll pay dividends this season," White said. "You'll see it pay off. I have that year under my belt, more experience. The game has slowed down more to me."
With Jalen Mills now at safety, White is working as LSU's No. 1 cornerback. White's still working hard to prove he's worthy of filling that role though. He's also eager to see how he and fellow rising sophomore Rashard Robinson hold down the corner spots.
"With me and Rashard coming with a year under our belt, we're smarter players. We're players the coaches can lean on more. They can do many things because we're able to hold our own more than last year. The coaches are more confident in us and can run more blitzes because we can hold our own on the outside."

Français 6
Bienvenue à la classe de 6ème
Madame Briden: email@example.com
Class syllabus
Grade 6 French is the second year of a two-year Bridge Language Program that was created to ease the transition between Lower School and Middle School French. Classes meet four times a week in Grade 6 (50 minute sessions). During these two years, the students are introduced to a formal instruction of the target language, in which the four skills of communication -reading, writing, speaking, and listening- are taught in an integrated way. The Middle School Language Curriculum implements the National Standards of communication, cultures, connections, comparisons, and communities. All units of study are planned to reflect these standards. Instructional activities are all based on the purpose of enabling the student to communicate effectively within a cultural context and in three modes: interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational. Major forms of assessment include frequent written quizzes, reading comprehension exercises, skits and oral presentations, special projects, and listening and speaking activities in the language lab.
Course Goals
The following objectives will be achieved in accordance with the philosophy of Lincoln School and its Quaker values, such as investigation, reflection, observation, collaboration, active participation and the exchange and development of ideas.
1. To make connections between Francophone cultures and one's own culture
2. To develop the 4 language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing
3. To build a solid base in French grammar, including the conjugation and usage of regular and irregular –er verbs in the present tense.
4. To expand the knowledge of everyday vocabulary and idiomatic expressions
5. To speak French as much as possible to improve fluency
6. To get to know oneself as a language learner by personalizing and applying learning strategies to enhance one's knowledge, attitude and skills
7. To recognize the importance of French as an important and necessary influence in the world today and to appreciate the cultural aspects that relate to the language
8. To practice and perfect, as much as possible, French pronunciation by practicing key phonetic sounds
9. To foster a positive understanding of Francophone culture and history through projects and reports
10. To incorporate Quaker values such as investigation, reflection, observation, collaboration, active participation and exchange of ideas into the learning process
Expectations and Evaluation
This class will be conducted almost entirely in French. You are expected to try to speak French at all times. An active presence, an open mind and thorough and timely preparedness are all important to the final grade. It is expected that you will abide by Lincoln's rules at all times. The final grade is a combination of tests, quizzes (announced and unannounced), skills and project assessments, homework completion, attendance/active and appropriate presence in class and a willingness to use French in the classroom
Homework policy
Homework is an integral part of the curriculum and is a way for students to extend what has been taught and to prepare for the next sequential part of the course. Homework teaches thinking skills and independence in learning and must be completed in a required time. For 6th graders in this French class, homework should not go over 30 minutes (most assignments will take no more than 15-20 minutes). Please jot down the start and end times when doing your homework each night so that I can be sure to not overload you. Homework is due at the beginning of class. I will not track you down for late or missing assignments. This is your responsibility as a student to communicate with me and to know what you need to do.
-if you are absent, check the class web page for any new assignments. You can also email me with any questions - you have 1 week to make up missed assignments or assessments upon returning from an excused absence. Please talk to me to schedule a time
a note on Integrity In accordance with Lincoln School's Handbook, it is expected that all work that you produce is 100% your own.

Motor Insurance | Auto-loans-direct.com
Why Insurance is a Must
Being a good businessman doesn't only mean focusing on your marketing strategies. It is also about protecting your resources. Many think that it's okay to just get cheap motor trade insurance plans to save on their expenses. In reality, there are lots of consequences in getting cheap plans. As they say, you get what you pay for. You can't expect something really good from an insurance plan that isn't from a reliable company. Here are some of the reasons why getting a good motor trade business insurance is a must.

Gives You Peace of Mind
If you are making a living out of car trade, it is vital to get a specialist mobile trade insurance to have peace of mind. Just imagine how much relief you can get by simply knowing that you will be covered in case the vehicles that you are transporting are caught in an accident. No matter how professional or careful you are as a driver, you can never tell what might happen on the road. Getting a reliable insurance plan will save you from heaps of expenses in case the cars have been damaged by accident or you have become a victim of hit-and-run. It's almost like having an invisible shield that protects you from things that are beyond your control.
Natural Disasters
The nature can be playful at times, thus, we need to be prepared for it. Natural calamities such as storms and earthquakes can be really devastating, but it's hard to tell when they will affect you. In such cases, it is important to ensure that you have a policy that covers the repair of your property and vehicles because if not, it will truly be a big loss on your end.
Most people believe that car thugs are just found in movies. Sad to say, incidents of carnapping and other types of break-ins are becoming more prevalent these days. Without insurance, you are exposed to such risks and you may never recover your losses easily. Although there are laws about mobile robbery, it's too risky to rely on them, particularly if you are a businessman. You need to take extra precautions about these scenarios before you experience the hassles of retrieving your lost vehicles.
Financial Security
While the success of a car trade business is not solely defined by the kind of insurance policy it is covered with, it is wise to choose a plan that provides better coverage and stability. Make sure that you only deal with legit insurance brokers and not just anyone who offers you low-cost offers. If you are unsure of the person you are dealing with, make sure to get in touch with the company that he represents to verify if he is linked with them or not. Also, you may want to ask questions and clarify all the terms indicated on the contract before signing up for anything. By that, you are sure that you are not only keeping your investment secure, but you are also putting money into something reliable.

How often do you play? I probably go through 2 boxes a month but I play 10-15 rounds a month. They either end up in the water on #8 or catch a few too many cart paths/wedge shots and start looking like death warmed over. On good rounds I'll lose one and beat another to death.

I usually lose two balls a round. I average 40 rounds a yr. I kept track one year a few years ago. I lost 48 balls and played 36 rounds that year. So I did better that year. That year was one of my best playing. Put me down for two balls a round for sure now.
