Below is my 2012 talk titled, From Botticelli's Venus to Super Mario, which I did for The Art of Video Games Exhibition at the Smithsonian in Washington DC. The talk focuses on the topic of dynamic composition in video games. Also featured below is a panel discussion—titled, From Michelangelo to Mario Kart: The Arts in Video Games—at swissnex San Francisco where I spoke alongside Robin Hunicke, Henry Lowood, and Eddo Stern.
Oct 2014 — Interview with India's Digit magazine during my trip to New Delhi to participate in AnimeCon India.
Oct 2012 — Interview with Eye for Games about the background work that went into writing Drawing Basics and Video Game Art, and the book's premise explained.
Sep 2012 — Interview with UCLA's student newspaper, The Daily Bruin.
I gave a talk at GDC Europe 2014 titled, Four Film Narrative Techniques That Every Designer Should Know. Unfortunately the video is only available to those subscribed to the GDC Vault (click on the logo to the left if you have access).
The talk does not cover story writing techniques but focuses on the art of storytelling. The presentation explores the mechanics of film and animation transitions and their impact on audience engagement in a narrative. Featured video examples illustrate the do's and don'ts of translating these techniques to gameplay, in-game visuals, and cutscenes in indie and AAA titles.

STD testing is a scary subject for a lot of people—well, okay, nearly everybody—but it doesn't have to be that way. Arming yourself with the knowledge to eliminate that fear is the first step toward ensuring you stay healthy and awesome, and talking to experts like our very own Dr. Lisa Oldson about the ins and outs and the whys of testing can get you there.
Dr. Lisa Oldson (an absolute whiz on all matters relating to sexually transmitted infections) is leading this week's #STDChat, focusing on helping you conquer your fears and doubts about HIV testing. Through the magic of Twitter, Dr. Oldson will lead the discussion, which will include:
• What the risk factors are
• How to face (and beat) anxiety associated with testing
• Resources and healthcare available to help patients that test positive get back to a full, healthy life.
When is this #STDChat?
• Friday, January 18th at 12 PM CST
How can you get in on the action and educate yourself about HIV testing? There's a ton of ways:
• Follow Dr. Oldson (@LisaOldson) on Twitter
• Submit a question by tweeting it, using hashtag #STDchat
• Too shy to ask? Just follow the #STDchat hashtag and see what questions others are asking—odds are, they're worried about the same things you are.
In addition to Dr. Oldson's tweets, there are other social-media stations you can turn to and get the courage to get tested:
• Need2Know HIV, The AIDS Foundation of Chicago's campaign to spread awareness about the importance of testing has a wealth of stories, news, facts and other resources.
• The Centers for Disease Control's website on HIV testing can help you locate the nearest place to get tested, and learn how to protect yourself against the disease.
• Spread the word about HIV testing, and help keep your friends and loved ones safe, by sharing the data and posting the banners available for free download on the HealthFinder.gov site.
See you on the chat!

Get on the Map (GOTM) 2015 has concluded and we must say … way to GO! We had such an incredible turnout this year for challenges, events and getting "on the map." From completion of the Every Day in May Challenge to participation in the ElliptiGO Rally Weekend to fundraising rides like Circle the Bay for Breast Cancer Research, we were impressed. Not only did our riders challenge themselves, but they conquered those challenges.
As a result of their efforts, 216 riders earned enough points to receive exclusive GOTM gear. Those orders have been processed and are on the way!
GOing into 2016, we anticipate announcing some changes to the GOTM program. Therefore, if you do participate in any official events, serve as the lead pacer for a running event, or organize a fundraising event prior to that announcement, keep track of your rides and distance. You may have the opportunity to submit them at a future date.
In addition, we hope that any of you who are new to this program will join the ElliptiGLOBE by getting yourself on the map as a member of the growing ElliptiGO Community. Simply fill out the Rider Locator Form to submit your location to the map, and we'll get it uploaded at a date in the near future. Doing so will help you find other riders and help other riders find you! As we all know, it's great to GO solo, but even better with a buddy. Find someone nearby and meet up for regular rides, or start a local riding club!
For those of you looking for a new challenge this year, or hoping to join in on the fun of participating in an official event, visit the map to see all of the events that ElliptiGO riders have completed so far and to locate other riders in your area. With over 15,000 ElliptiGOs on the road now, chances are that there will be other ElliptiGO riders at those events again this year, or potentially living right down the street! If you'd like to propose a new group event or coordinate a meet-up at an event already on the map, we recommend posting to our private Facebook group and Strava group to see who else might be interested. We know you'll get a taker or two.
If you have any questions about the 2015 GOTM program or on how to post/locate riders on the map, please email: email@example.com.

Video: Robert Pattinson's Nerdy Beginning
Before he was winning hearts as Edward Cullen in the Twilight series, Robert Pattinson took a role playing a major geek to help pay his bills.
In the TV movie The Bad Mother's Handbook, which aired in the UK in 2007, Robert played geeky Daniel Gale — a clumsy, mumbling geek who hid behind black-framed glasses and his hair (that hung over his face for most of the movie). However, despite his bad outfits and nerdiness, he's still a charmer — and even has a kissing scene!

The 2010 Holiday Marketer Report has been released by Experian, which is predicting mobile and social platforms to have their biggest impact yet on holiday sales. Experian also forecasts a modest growth of between 1 and 2 percent in consumer spending this year, positive news when you consider that spending has been on a decline the past two holiday seasons.
Experian's research shows that mobile purchases have grown to 13 percent of e-commerce sales since 2009, setting the stage for the biggest mobile holiday shopping season to date. The company also found that about 3 percent of traffic to online retailing hubs comes directly from social networks where consumers are searching for product information and user reviews. Twenty-six percent of holiday shoppers will go online in search of discounts this season, the study shows, and 17 percent of consumers use the Internet as their only means of product research.
Meanwhile, comScore's Q2 2010 U.S. Retail E-Commerce Report shows encouraging year-to-year growth in both the first (10%) and second (9%) quarters of the year. The next issue of Website Magazine includes a feature article on prepping your e-commerce business for the 2010 holidays, so sign up now to learn how best to take advantage of the new opportunities in mobile and social commerce.

The view from the Gaza strip
"Everyone is waiting for the ceasefire because our lives are terrible."
With those words, Raed al-Atamneh, a taxi-driver in the northern Gaza town of Beit Hanoun, summed up the mood in advance of the Egyptian-brokered truce.
"People expect goods to come into Gaza now. I hope this agreement will stop the shooting, stop the dying. People want to feel safe and have a good life, but the power is in Israeli hands, not Palestinian hands," Mr al-Atamneh added.
More than 400 Palestinians and seven Israelis have been killed in Gaza and southern Israel since Hamas seized control of the Strip a year ago. As tens of thousands of Israelis endured frequent rocket fire, Gaza's population reeled from IDF operations and a blockade that caused shortages of fuel and basic goods. The strictures are now to be eased.
Naji Shurab, a political scientist at Gaza City's al-Azhar University, cautioned that there are serious doubts over how long the truce will last.
"There is a temporary interest of both Israel and Hamas for this ceasefire, but there are many factors that could lead to its collapse. It is an unwritten agreement, Egypt doesn't have the power to back it up. Israel will not let Hamas develop its infrastructure and tools. Also, if Israel assassinates a Palestinian leader in the West Bank, what will be the response of the resistance here in Gaza?
"I hope this ceasefire will last for its full six months and be renewed on a strong basis, but this depends on there being a political vision, especially for the Palestinians. If the Palestinians are offered a real vision of building a state and of the negotiating process leading to a positive outcome, the public will be more able to support the truce and relations with Israel," Mr Shurab said.

text: We posted recently about the controversy surrounding the construction and financing of the Downtown and Midtown tunnels in Hampton Roads. In particular, there has been much dispute about charging tolls as a method of paying for those projects. On Wednesday of this week, a Portsmouth Circuit Court judge ruled that using the tolls to finance the project was unconstitutional. The Norfolk newspaper reports that the Commonwealth of Virginia could be on the hook for the balance of the cost for the project if the tolls are not allowed. Stay tuned, as the Commonwealth says it will appeal the circuit court's ruling to the Supreme Court of Virginia.

Canada is thinking of joining other nations (including the U.S.) in taking Draconian measures to prevent piracy. The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA), would give border guards the ability to check laptops, iPods and even cellular phones for content that infringes on copyright laws, such as ripped CDs and movies.
This is without a warrant or a court order, of course.
ACTA also proposes forcing internet service providers to hand over personal information pertaining to "claimed infringement" or "alleged infringers" of copyrights. Again, without a warrant.
The agreement would create a governing and enforcement body separate from other international organizations like the World Trade Organization and the United Nations.

Ringtones (Ring Tunes) Collected by Google Urde Team.
MA ringtone or ring tone is the sound
made by a mobile phone to indicate an incoming call
or text message. The term is a misnomer, as it is often
used to refer to any ring sound, almost all of which
are not tones. The term is most often used to refer
to the customizable sounds used on mobile phones. A
phone "rings" when its network indicates
an incoming call and the phone thus alerts the user.
For mobile phones, the network sends the phone a message
indicating an incoming call. A telephone "ring"
is the sound generated when there is an incoming telephone
call. The term originated from the fact that early telephones
had a ringing mechanism consisting of a bell and an
electromagnetically-driven hammer, producing a ringing
sound. Want to go to Mobile Section of Google Urdu CLICK

Rural residents could pay less for health insurance and medical care under the new health care law, according to a report released Wednesday by the Center for Rural Affairs in Nebraska.
The issue is of particular importance to rural residents because they generally pay more for health insurance and have lower incomes than people who live in or near cities, according to the report.
The Affordable Care Act could help them by providing subsidies for health insurance purchased through the new online exchanges, which will allow people to comparison shop for coverage beginning Oct. 1, and by capping out-of-pocket costs for those with the lowest incomes, said the report written by Jon Bailey, director of the center's Rural Research and Analysis Program.
Other provisions of the health care law could reduce costs and increase access to medical care down the line by encouraging more doctors, nurses and other providers to work in rural areas, Bailey said in a telephone interview.
The nation's poorest families are covered by the government-run Medicaid and Medicare programs. Those who earn too much to qualify for Medicaid but less than 400 percent of the poverty level -- $45,000 for an individual and $94,000 for a family of four -- can receive premium subsidies for insurance purchased through the online exchanges. Bailey said the subsidies are more likely to benefit rural residents because they are less likely to have health insurance through their employers than people living in urban and suburban areas.
Most farm families buy their own insurance, he said. Also, non-farmers living in rural areas are more likely to be self-employed or work for small businesses that don't provide group coverage.
"They may find that their insurance options may still be better, cheaper than what they have now" even if they earn too much to qualify for a subsidy, he said.
Wisconsin and Nebraska are among the states with Republican governors who opted not to create state-run exchanges and will be served by ones run by the federal government. The states have released the names of insurance companies that will offer plans through the exchanges, but as yet have provided no details about rates or plans.
Low-income families also could benefit from another provision in the health care law that caps out-of-pocket costs, the report said. For example, most people who buy a "silver" health care plan may pay up to $6,350 for medical expenses. But those earning up to about $23,000 per year would pay only $2,250 with the same plan.
The Center for Rural Affairs has received many calls from people who want to know what they would pay for insurance under the exchange, Bailey said.
"Every family, every individual is going to be a little bit different because of their circumstances," he said. The best advice, he said, is "when people have the opportunity, starting Oct. 1, take your time, research what's offered in your state and what works best for yourself and your family and what it costs and what works best for your pocketbook and your health care needs."

Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7 and place a baking tray on the top shelf. For the sauce, heat the cream and sugar until boiling. Remove from the heat, stir in the chocolate and butter until melted, then keep warm.
Brush 6 x 150ml ramekins with melted butter, sprinkle with the 2 tbsp caster sugar, then tip out any excess. Melt the chocolate and cream in a bowl over a pan of simmering water, cool, then mix in the egg yolks. Whisk the egg whites until they hold their shape, then add the sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, whisking back to the same consistency. Mix a spoonful into the chocolate, then gently fold in the rest.
Working quickly, fill the ramekins, wipe the rims clean and run your thumb around the edges. Turn oven down to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6, place the ramekins onto the baking tray, then bake for 8-10 mins until risen with a slight wobble. Don't open the oven door too early as this may make them collapse.
Once the soufflés are ready, dust with icing sugar, scoop a small hole from their tops, then pour in some of the hot chocolate sauce. Replace the lids and serve straight away.

These worked out great eventually! but there were a few bumps along the way! firstly my chocolate mixture went very thick and gluggy making it hard to carefully fold with the egg whites, I think this is because I used the bowl over boiling water to melt the chocolate, this way is actually quite difficult to get right and very easy to overcook your chocolate which is what I did, I wanted to follow the recipe exactly as has never cooked souffle before, but I find it much easier to melt chocolate in a glass bowl in the microwave at a very low power (4 or 5) and only 30 sec at a time so you dont overcook it, seems to work everytime. Also I took my souffles out at about 9 mins and they were very undercooked, had to put them back in for about 8 minutes longer - the recipe says to turn down to 180C isf your not using a fan oven but next time I will try leaving at 200 as I think 180 is too low. Despite mucking up the chocolate and the cooking time my souffles still rose and tasted delicious! will definitely be making again

People in the U.S. state of Colorado are unable to access two questionable scholarly publishers. I think the sites are blocked here to try to prevent me from analyzing them and adding them to my list.
The publishers are these:
- ScholArena = http://www.scholarena.com/
- Annex Publishers = http://www.annexpublishers.com/
I recently received three emails from researchers in India, Finland, and Australia alerting me to the cleverly-named, new publisher ScholArena.
When I try to access the ScholArena website, I get this message:
When I try to access Annex Publishers, I get a blank page. I had already added Annex Publishers to my list in July, 2013.
After I got the tips about ScholArena, I regularly kept checking the website, thinking it had gone down temporarily. After about ten days, I realized something strange was happening — everyone could access the site but me.
I then sent an email to my colleagues at the Auraria Library, University of Colorado Denver, asking them whether they could access it. None could access it at work or at home — home in various suburbs of Denver.
Then a colleague went to neighboring New Mexico and reported that she could access the site without any problem. Thus, I am concluding that access is cut off for Colorado.
However, I was able to access both publishers using the free, anonymous IP service called Anonymouse! I have analyzed both publishers and found they meet the criteria and have added them to my list.
I am assuming that the two publishers are related and likely owned by the same person. The spam emails from both publishers look very similar, plus they both are playing games with access.
Finally, ScholArena gives this as its office address:
However, looking at this address in Google Maps street view, one sees a crowded apartment building:
I doubt the operation is really based here and think they are just using the address to make it appear the publisher is based in the United States.

Newly elected Petersburg Mayor Mark Jensen presents a commemorative gavel to outgoing Mayor Al Dwyer Monday evening.
Petersburg Mayor Al Dwyer passed his gavel and his duties to Vice Mayor Mark Jensen after a unanimous vote put Jensen in the mayor's seat Monday evening during the Petersburg City Council regular meeting.
"I would just like to take the opportunity to tell everyone that these council members work very hard for this community," Dwyer said. "For the last five years, I am convinced that these members of the council have absolutely done their jobs."
Dwyer recommended Councilor and Vice Mayor Jensen for the position before taking the vote.
"I strongly recommend Mark take the position," Dwyer stated. "He is the only one on the ballot for the Mayor position, he does his homework and he has worked with our lobbyist. He has handled almost everything and I think he will do a good job."
A commemorative gavel was presented to outgoing Mayor Al Dwyer Monday evening.
Jensen took the opportunity to give his thanks to the former Mayor.
"I'd like to thank Mayor Dwyer for the five years of dedicated service he has given to the City of Petersburg," Jensen stated. "We were elected at the same time, Oct. 2, 2007 and Al has served the community with compassion. He always had time to listen to citizens' various opinions, complaints and compliments and all were treated the same by him."
Jensen also said that Dwyer worked hard to keep the council members on track and infused humor into the meetings whenever he could, and it was needed often.
"Al has been a great dignitary representing all visitors and travelers because of who he is," Jensen stated. "We all know that Al
will continue to be a statesman for our community."

Ridiculed by the fans since he took over in November, Rafael Benitez has finally cracked under pressure and hit out at the supporters for damaging the club's image in public. The Spaniard also confirmed that he will leave Chelsea at the end of the season amid protests from the fans calling for his head.
Talking after his side's 5th round FA Cup win over Middlesbrough that set up a mouthwatering clash with Manchester United in the quarter-finals, Benitez confirmed that he will leave the club in the summer. He said, "They don't have to worry about me – I leave at the end of the season. "
Benitez was appointed the Chelsea manager after Roberto di Matteo was unceremoniously sacked in November and the former Liverpool boss was greeted to a round of boos in his first game in charge. The Blues' supporters have yet to warm up to the Spaniard and have consistently displayed their displeasure at his appointment.
However, Benitez has hit out at his critics and said, "I really feel disappointed with a group of fans, because they don't do any favors to the team. They should support the players instead of wasting time preparing banners or singing songs [against him]. What they have to do is support the team and create a good atmosphere at Stamford Bridge."
He added, "If we cannot achieve the target that we are looking for – to be in the Champions League – they are not helping with their talking and talking. If they [the fans] are going to carry on with an agenda, then they have to take responsibility. Stick together and we can achieve what we need to. "
Benitez also criticised the club hierarchy for giving him the title of interim manager and said, "They [Chelsea] gave me the title of interim manager. That was a massive mistake. Why did they need to do that?"

Now that it's been pretty much confirmed that Sam Raimi will direct Oz The Great and Powerful, we're interested in the specifics regarding the plot. So far, we've been told that it will be a prequel to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and it will center on the title character and his rise from a stranded traveler to a powerful wizard. Over at Pajiba, they've gotten the inside scoop on what the film's about, so if you want to know, here it is…
The following info features spoilers so if you don't want to know — don't read!
The Wizard — a snake-oil salesman posing as a magician — enters Oz via a hot-air balloon, which he uses to escape an angry husband who has found out that Oz slept with his wife. There, Oz — a fast-talking huckster who wears a velveteen frock coat — falls in love with Glinda (the Good Witch), and the two combine forces to Fight the Evil Witches Evanora and Theodora. Theodora starts out as a good witch, but after Oz jilts her sexual advances, Evanora — the truly evil witch — convinces Theodora to become an evil witch with her and help her to rule all of Oz. Both Evanora and Theodora are described as incredibly attractive, seductive women, and Theodora likes to wear black, thigh-high boots.
So, this is going to have sex in it? How are they going to pull that off exactly? This doesn't sound like a family film so we're not sure how they'll market it. Plus, who wants to think of the Wizard in that way? Granted he'll be played by the super charismatic Robert Downey Jr. but still. Gross.
What do you think of the plot details for Oz the Great and Powerful?

had a ball there was plenty to eat and drink the music was good
the crowd was great we in the greatest place for the fireworks
everybody had the best time Best of all there was no trouble
this time i only with my wife but next time i getting a group to go and have aball
My friends and I had a great night on the New Years Eve boat cruise on the Yarra, the food was great and the service from the staff was terrific. We are all thinking about doing it again next year!!
it well worth the money, the food was top quality, and delicious, , the variety of drinks was good. The people who attended were mostly friendly, and very well behaved. the music was great for dancing, overall it was very enjoyable. I would highly reccomend this new years cruise to anyone giuseppe c.
Romel S Australia
That was the best New Year party i have ever had. Myself and my lady will be the first there again next year. We are even thinking about doing our cocktail party there.
Rebecca V Australia
The trip was amazing and very well worth the money. Had a brilliant time, the silver boat was great with the top viewing deck to see the New Year's fireworks and the food was fantastic. The only thing that could have been approved on was having more chairs for dinner and then putting them away after as the food was not really finger fork food, you had to sit down to eat it. Apart from that it was brilliant, thanks had a great night.
Yvonne O Australia
We really enjoyed the experience. The food was good and there was plenty to drink. The staff were very friendly and also very helpful. I would recommend it highly to my friends.
Sara S Australia
What a great way to see in the New Year. Everything about this trip was quality. The food, drink, staff. I will definitely look forward to taking this cruise again.
Kimberley B New Zealand
It was so worth while, we are all glad that we did it. The only comment was that the boat was a bit hot. Thank you so much for a great night though!
Paul M Australia
Well looked after. Well fed. Friendly service from the booking to the boarding on the night. Thank you, we will certainly do this again and recommend to our friends.
Elizabeth C Australia
Had a great time would definitely do it again. Food was excellent as was the entertainment and view of fireworks was great. Overall a great night in Melbourne for New Years.
Garry M Australia
Four of us went and we all LOVED and have since raved about this cruise! Food was good, drinks were free-flowing - with a well attended bar, which prevented the '10-deep at the bar' syndrome suffered by most venues on NYE. The boat was quite busy but not at all overcrowded. It was worth paying for the better package for the better boat and wines, which were very reasonable. As far as views of the fireworks is concerned - you couldn't have asked for better. Uninterrupted views of both shows, very close to the action. It seems they also listened to last year's feedback about the 'limited run' of the boat. This time they took us miles upriver between firework shows. The disco downstairs was cheesy, alright, but that was just what we were after. It was a good mix of music and our party aged from late 20s to early 50s. The only constructive feedback I'd give the organisers - find somewhere else for the full bin bags. Not on the rear open deck, which is quite small and room is precious up there! Especially when the fireworks are on. Oh, and make sure the drinks are chilled BEFORE they're loaded on the boat. All in all - great value for money and highly recommended. A big thank you to all the staff who made it a night to remember!
Food Great, Music Great, Staff Great, But need more open area or outside area because the weather was perfect
We had a great time. The boat isn't huge but once you get going you can meet people because there's so many people there and everyone's in high spirits because it's New Years! The food was good but everything was cold and it was awkward to eat with a knife and fork when there weren't enough available chairs to sit on. Would have been better with finger food. Great music to dance to, best views in Melbourne and security took care of people who were a bit too crazy! Great way to meet people as well.
What a fabulous night we had on the Party Cruise.A bit disorganised prior to boarding but all uphill from there. Great food, drinks flowing, really good atmosphere, everyone was in party mode even the staff, and to top it off an amazing way to watch the New Year fireworks. Would definately go again!
It was a great experience, real party atmosphere. There was plenty of great food, though I think next time I would go for the gold as the alcohol selection wasn't great.
Seeing the fireworks was fantastic, full 360 degree view. The DJ was really good too, great dance music.
A lovely evening. Pleasantly surprised by the food-- Tasty, and plentiful. Not too crowded. Perhaps there wasn't the 'vibe' that one would expect on New Year's Eve , but the beautiful setting made up for it. I would definitely recommend this for people wanting a New Year's with a difference
My husband and I attended the cruise with friends and had a great time. Our only complaint was with the content of the music played, we may be over 35 but we enjoy all the latest music and love to shake our booty lol have recommended the cruise to our friends and hopefully will do it all again this year!! :-)
we had a fabulous time , food was excellent, service was great. only one thing, i recommend that more chairs should be provided, especially for the eating, and maybe a few table, as it was very difficult to stand and enjoy your meal. otherwise great.thanks
Met some amazing and wonderful people on the NYE PURPLE Cruise!! Food was good, music was good (except DJ stuffing up songs by scratching record.. blah). Service was great and with a smile!
Steve M Australia
A good way to see in the New Year with family and friends. The food was good and plentiful, the drink was ok although the whisky was cheap rubbish. The staff were attentive and helpful and the cruise was enjoyable. Improve the selection of whisky and you will have the complete package. Did I mention the whisky? Happy New Year!
Colin B United Kingdom
A good New Year's Eve. Organisation at the start was a bit chaotic but the food and drink were plenty full and the idea of having different age ranges and different music on different boats worked well.
Hayley C New Zealand
We had a great time - so glad we did it. Loved the type of music played, it was definitely our thing! Good idea to have put us into age groups too, booking over the internet not knowing much about these boat cruises we were a bit worried there would be old people and/or little kids.
Graeme T Australia
A great evening with pleasant people and professional staff. Seating a little cramped but as whole an enjoyable experience. I am not sure if seeing the fireworks from the boat would be good on the river from an advantageous spot. We had to get off the boat to see the fireworks.
Graeme T Australia
I did not find the trip as satisfying as the year before. The food did not seem as good, more people less seats for people to sit and eat and did not get a good view of the fireworks. The previous year the boat stopped on the embankment and let us off.

Homeland Security Chief Quits
Frankfort, Ky – The Director of the Kentucky Office of Homeland Security has resigned. An agency spokesman says Keith Hall's decision to resign is unrelated to an investigation of hiring practices in Governor Fletcher's administration.
Hall's departure comes just seven months after his appointment by Fletcher. Hall spent the first eleven months of the administration heading up the office that handles board and commission appointments for Fletcher.
Lieutenant Governor Steve Pence informed Attorney General Greg Stumbo's staff of the resignation Friday and gave assurances that records in Hall's office would be secured for investigators if needed.

FBC Muscle Shoals name change defines it comment (0)
August 7, 2008
As of June 22, First Baptist Church, Muscle Shoals, in Colbert-Lauderdale Baptist Association became known as Grace Life Church of the Shoals.
The change came about because of a desire for the church's name to reflect not just its location but also its commitment and focus as a body of believers.
"First Baptist Church of Muscle Shoals is the same church with the same doctrine, distinctives and denomination,"
said Senior Pastor-Teacher Jeff Noblit. "But now our name — Grace Life Church of the Shoals — defines who we are.
We are a church committed to the doctrines of grace, the life of the Spirit and the glory of God through historic Baptist doctrine."
The church continues to meet at 1915 Avalon Ave. in Muscle Shoals. Services are held each Sunday at 10:30 a.m. and 6:15 p.m. and Wednesday at 6 p.m.
For more information, visit www.gracelifeshoals.org or call 256-381-7495.

We have received co-funding from ALMI, which will enable us to continue the development of our apps. The apps will simplify coordination between different actors while at the same time protecting the users' information.
Our focus is to protect your integrity
Relax and interact
Our vision is to create a cyber space where you feel free to relax and interact. Where you, me and everyone else have control over our information even when sharing it with others.
Most people
…are aware of the lack of security and integrity online. Nevertheless, we share more information than ever before. Like most people you are probably concerned about who has access to your information. If so, you have come to the right place.
For over a decade, we have carried out demonstrations and prototyping in domains with high requirements on security, integrity and interoperability. Our platform as a service is the result of that journey. The platform has no backdoors. We can't access your data or encryption keys. So when you stop sharing, no information is left behind.
It creates information exchange through interaction, not systems integration, in a way that has proven to be more secure, cost-efficient, scalable and flexible than other alternatives available.
Our apps help people organize the business of their lives.
Each day consists of different details, both small and large, that are essential – but that tend to take up too much time. During autumn 2016, we are launching the only organizer that offers real-time coordination of your everyday life – from picking up your children at school to arranging a party. Trixxa will handle unclassified information only.
Coordination of activities plays an important role when healthcare is provided in the home of the patient. We will develop a suit of apps that coordinates activities like medical checkups, medication, transports, meal deliveries, and much more. The apps will handle the interaction between the patient, their relatives, healthcare and other service providers, their systems, services and apps as well as working as a secure back-end to Internet-of-Things.
"We create a cyber space where you can relax and interact"

Food safety risks associated with brain parasites such as worms (which can be linked to epilepsy), cancer-causing viruses, hepatitis E, rabies, and superbugs such as MRSA can be killed with proper cooking, though there are some bugs such as Salmonella and C. diff (getting increasingly common in pork) that are relatively heat-resistant (and there's always a concern about cross-contamination, especially when the industry resists government controls). Endotoxins in raw or cooked animal and fermented foods may trigger inflammation that may be exacerbated by the presence of saturated fat. Handling poultry can lead to the colonization of one's colon with antibiotic resistant E. coli that may result in bladder infections in women and cancers from exposure to oncogenic chicken viruses among poultry workers. Even with thorough cooking, though, rare neurotoxins, more common toxins, and biogenic amines in seafood as well as prions and drug residues cannot be effectively cooked out of the meat. While it is often safest to cook meat properly, certain carcinogens are actually created when muscle is cooked; green tea may protect against these heterocyclic amines. Volatile toxins may also pose a respiratory risk when released by oil when frying. Cooking with spices may enhance their DNA protection and may increase the bioavailability of some nutrients, but in extraordinary cases may increase toxicity. Smoked meats may also pose a carcinogenic risk.

2011 East-West Shrine Game participant Mike Mohamed was a four-year contributor for the California Golden Bears at inside linebacker.
The 6'3", 245-lb Mohamed was a three-time All-Pac-10 honoree, including a first team nod after his junior season in 2009.
Though he's not the most physically talented member of the 2011 linebacker class, Mohamed proved time and again during his collegiate career that he has a knack for being around the ball and making plays.
Mohamed has a lot of value in the mid to late rounds and should be a special teams ace as a rookie with a chance to develop into an every down linebacker a few years down the road.
The Broncos add a guy who will contribute as a special-teamer in his rookie season and that's all you can ask for in the sixth round.

Large blooms of didymo discovered in Delaware River
Additionally, Didymo can easily attach to any fishing equipment, especially felt-soled boots, and the chance of it hitchhiking its way into nearby streams or rivers that currently lack this unwanted invader is cause for alarm. The risk is compounded by the bloom's timing with the beginning of trout season, when anglers flock to the river in large numbers. This spring's warm weather and low flows are bringing out even more fishing enthusiasts, further amplifying the concern for spread.
DRBC staff is coordinating with scientists from Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and the National Park Service to quickly alert the public and identify appropriate next steps. Samples already collected were sent to the laboratory at The Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia where Academy scientists confirmed the identification of Didymo. Follow-up surveys to determine the actual downstream extent of the bloom are planned once river conditions improve after the weekend's rains.
For more details, including additional information on Didymo and how to prevent its spread by properly cleaning equipment before entering another stream or river, please visit www.drbc.net.
The DRBC is a federal/interstate government agency responsible for managing the water resources within the 13,539 square-mile Delaware River Basin. The five commission members are the governors of the basin states (Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania) and the commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' North Atlantic Division, who represents the federal government.

Skip to comments.Blogger Publishes Israel's Iran 'Attack Plan'
Posted on 08/16/2012 6:28:59 AM PDT by Fennie
WASHINGTON -- A prominent left-wing blogger has published what is claimed to be an outline of Israel's attack plan against Iran. Richard Silverstein, on his blog Tikun Olam, has posted a report that is based, according to Silverstein, on a briefing document prepared by the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Silverstein's blog is known for breaking news banned for publication in Israel due to military censorship.
According to the post, Israel has set out a four-step plan for its attack on Iran's nuclear sites, if and when the cabinet gives military commanders the green light.
(Excerpt) Read more at forward.com ...
First, Israel will carry out an unprecedented cyber-attack which will totally paralyze the Iranian regime and its ability to know what is happening within its borders, according to the claimed outline of the attack plan, which Silverstein states came from an IDF officer.
Blogger Carves Out Niche Baring Israeli Intel Secrets
The electrical grid throughout Iran will be paralyzed and transformer stations will absorb severe damage from carbon fiber munitions which are finer than a human hair, causing electrical short circuits whose repair requires their complete removal, according to the document.
Next, the Israelis will rain missiles both from their own soil and from nearby submarines that will target Irans nuclear facilities. The warheads, the blog claims, will be conventional but will include special ammunition built to penetrate Irans underground facilities. In the third phase, an Israeli satellite will pass over the region and collect data assessing the damage caused to the targets. This information will quickly be relayed to Israeli Air Force jets already en route so they can adjust their targeting. The Israeli air strike, Silverstein writes, will be carried out by warplanes equipped with stealth capabilities unknown even to the United States. They will bomb not only nuclear facilities but also missile sites and other factories, and bases involved in the nuclear program.
Isn't that a Jewish name?
This guy is a NTBK Traitor.
Plausible. Funny thing is that even with advanced warning, there is little the Iranians could do to prevent this type of attack. Big question though is will it be strategically successful from the Israeli perspective and just how will the US be involved. Things will get ugly.
There is a reason Obama has been all over the world, has time for over 200 golf games and over 200 campaign events this year already but can't find time to visit Israel.
"stealth capabilities unknown even to the United States"
Oh, please, LOL.
he's never been and never will be in Isreal, that bowing tour he took established that long ago.
3 things I have never heard of: Carbon fiber munitions that do what the article says they do, Stealth technology that not even the US knows about and the strange way of describing bunker busters.
Hopefully this document contained some coded piece of information that will help Israeli inteligence trace the leaker and take appropriate action
If it were me I'd blow up every dam in the country and use an EMP to fry their power grid. Let the mullahs spend the next decade worrying about how to feed their people as opposed to building a bomb.
"You Worthy Oriental Gentlemen had better shape up, 'cause look at what we're afixin' to rain on your ass...."
Now for a dose of reality: Taking out key transformer substations in the grid in an area the size of Western Europe? How? Planes? Teams on the Ground? Sure, Power grids are very vulnerable. But, the Iranian military probably has back-ups ready to go on line just like ours, or Israel's. The civilians live with really shaky power anyway.
IAF jets "already on route?" From where? A one-way mission? Stealth "unkown to even the US...." OK, but can they fly a 5000 mile mission w/o refueling? A missile attack "with conventional Warheads." Nonsense. Do about as much damage to a hardened underground facility ... presuming one knew where every last one was to within 3 feet ... as a cheese blintz.
Good plan. PSYOPS ... but a good plan.
The real plan? A nuke with the 12th Imam's Holy Well at Ground Zero. Or somehow starting a civil war within Iran, with the military restoring the Shah?
I really don't think that Israel will attack but will be attacked by at least 5 neighbors. That will be the game changer.
Yeah, that phrase stopped me, too. But with an avowed Jew-hater and traitor in the White Hut, I'm thinking Israel might be doing some very covert R&D.
How do you say "Loose Lips Sink Ships" in Yiddish/Hebrew???
I told Ben not to share this with the little "o"...but he wouldn't listen.
Why is this guy still alive? He is no better than an Iranian agent.
We used them during Desert Storm I.
I really don't think that Israel will attack but will be attacked by at least 5 neighbors. That will be the game changer.
You react like that because you're in the United States, so by definition you don't know about capabilities that are unknown here. This super-stealth is a double-triple sneaky secret known only in the innermost circles of the Israeli government and to one brave blogger. Now we know too, but if we don't tell anyone, Israel will still achieve both strategic and tactical surprise!
The Iranian leadership has so many choices here. They can ignore this obvious psyops blog - and look like idiots if there is an attack with any similarities to the blogger's dreamland. They can try to protect against a threat unknown even in the United States and spend a whole lot of money spinning their wheels. They can move their work off of the Internet and off of computers that can be targeted, and then try to get things done at a greatly reduced efficiency. They can move all of their scientists and leaders out of their homes and away from the addresses that have according to this blogger been targeted. Have fun with this.
That has been done before and it didn't work out well for the five neighbors.
Now, back to those operatives in the various worldwide jewish communities, they are charged with the final mission beyond protection of the jewish blood lines to cutting the Seed of all the expariates remaining to end the fued from Islam and the Jew's forever.
Imagine the sands of arabia and all the nations of Islam destroyed, their lands radiated and people destroyed wherever they reside on planet Earth.
First of all, there is a 50/50 chance that this guy is putting out disinformation. Beyond that, Israel's most effective early attacks will be from infiltrators who have prepositioned sabotage charges, electronics jammers, and other gear at critical locations. This can get very complicated.
This *could* cut off power, communications, water, fuel, etc. prior to the attack, complicating defenses horribly. They can also create lots of false alarms, deceptions, send fake messages, propaganda and disinformation to cause widespread disorder.
Only shortly thereafter would the conventional attack begin.
Rather surprisingly, Iran has a lot of (water) dams, over 500 of them, some of which are quite large, and if damaged or destroyed could cause extensive chaos if not much loss of life. I would highly recommend taking out a bunch of these dams just prior to the attack.
This is just more dis-information—a little right—a lot is a smoke screen to keep the Iranians off ballance and ready to do some mistake. Still, As old Hitler himself observed, starting a war is like entering a dark room—you can bump into anything—no sure bets. Still, I do not blame Israel after all the talk of destruction by Iran. I say let them use atomic weapons! Eliminate Iran as a power and as a nation. Hit their leadership on a Friday while they are at the Mosque, target hospitals and civilian centers—Hit them once—then two days later hit them harder— to get the world media photographing the ruins! One side must win—one side lose. No half measures! Israel will have to keep an eye out for Egypt who might weigh in and attack —a stab in the back— in the early hours of the way. My fear—it will not be a 30 day war—not a three year war—that expands!
When someone in the media, or even a blogger, gets supposedly "classified" information on a regular basis, and publishes it with no legal repercussions, it's a good bet that they are an unofficial disinformation asset for the agencies they claim to be exposing.
Mosad is probably arranging a long "vacation" for this blogger
Really? The Russians, paks, and the Chinese are not just going to sit around and let that happen without a response.
The only oil we are going to see for a while is the bacon fat we will use to light our lamps.

Karzai says Afghanistan doesn't need American troops
By Kathy Gannon and Rahim Faiez, AP
March 16, 2014, 12:01 am TWN
KABUL, Afghanistan -- In his final address to Afghanistan's parliament Saturday, President Hamid Karzai told the United States its soldiers can leave at the end of the year because his military, which already protects 93 percent of the country, was ready to take over entirely.
He reiterated his stance that he would not sign a pact with the United States that would provide for a residual force of U.S. troops to remain behind after the final withdrawal, unless peace could first be established.
The Afghan president has come under heavy pressure to sign the Bilateral Security Agreement, with a council of notables that he himself convened recommend that he sign the pact. The force would train and mentor Afghan troops, and some U.S. Special Forces would also be left behind to hunt down al-Qaida.
All 10 candidates seeking the presidency in April 5 elections have said they would sign the security agreement. But Karzai himself does not appear to want his legacy to include a commitment to a longer foreign troop presence in his country.
Karzai was brought to power in the wake of the 2001 U.S.-led invasion and subsequently won two presidential elections —— in 2004 and again in 2009. But he has in recent years espoused a combative nationalism, with his hourlong speech Saturday no exception.
"I want to say to all those foreign countries who maybe out of habit or because they want to interfere, that they should not interfere," he said.
Karzai said the war in Afghanistan was "imposed" on his nation, presumably by the 2001 invasion, and told the United States it could bring peace to Afghanistan if it went after terrorist sanctuaries and countries that supported terrorism, a reference to Pakistan.
Pakistan has a complicated relationship with the Taliban. It backed the group before their 2001 overthrow, and although now it is at war with its own militants, Afghan insurgents sometimes find refuge on its territory.

Iron Curtis' pieces originate in a place simultaneously tuned to the sounds of Detroit, Chicago and Hamburg.
In his home town of Nürnberg, Johannes Paluka is more familiarly known under his surname, which he goes by at the turntable. Intertwining Deep-House with soulful Techno in a disturbingly enchanting manner, his sound moves in the equilibrium of reduced, but never minimal.
Flashes of kitsch brighten the dark universe of Iron Curtis, but fail to interfere with the melancholy subtext.
Profound music for the dance floor!
He is currently living in Berlin and is releasesing for Mirau, Morris Audio, Mule Electronic, Retreat and Jack Off amongst others.
