Ianez thinks he might have seen something like it...somewhere...
@La Siréene - I figure since everyone can probably tell it was some sort of cephalopod, your knowledge about the particular species fits since you are a druid therefore pretty conversant with animal species anyways.
|Kwanjan Quinn
Should have done this before
Quinn stops and moves back to the group and points at La Siréene. He whispers a couple of arcane words while pointing to her. He whispers to the group, "My cantrip will not last very long. I will move up ahead. I am in communication with Lady La Siréene. I will tell her when it's alright to proceed to the stop."
Casting Message on La Siréene
The monk moves ahead of the group, enough that he does not go beyond the range of the spell. He communicates the locations of Hergelund's deactivated traps and to avoid them. At the stop he will extinguish the light spell and recon the area.
|Gaston Blackacre
Sorry for radio silence - I have been away from the computer all day
Pressure breeds synergy, doctor, like making a diamond. Necessity and danger make close friends quickly, I should say.
knowledge(nature): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Did that woman just become an...octopus? This is a strange place indeed.
Blackacre stays at the front of the main group while Quinn scouts ahead. He casts Light when needed (i.e., if Q is out of range) to allow them to see a short distance ahead and to spot Hergelund's traps where pointed out.
Your party reaches the end of the sewer where it empties into train station: Lamp Stop. This location is the same as Fenrir Stop structurally, with slight variation in minor details of style. The metal grate that covers the exit to the sewer is intact, but loose on its moorings. Here too, gaslight on the walls flickers a weird fiery red-orange.
|Kwanjan Quinn
Quinn whispers to Lady La Siréene using the Message spell.
"Lady La Siréene, inform the others that there are bodies around the station....area of devastation...we need to be on our guard. Approach with caution. Going to need detection like last time."
Quinns does not get onto the station. He waits for the others to approach, with bow and arrow at thwe ready
|Ianez Gastnicht
Ianez follows along, moving quietly and keeping his eyes moving from place to place. "Allies, at least. We know we have to depend on each other and ourselves, if we have any hope of surviving." Much less of being revenged on the authors of this obscenity.
|Halfling, Shape of Nameless
As the group approaches, La Siréene relays Quinn's message.
"We have reached the station. Area devastated. Bodies scattered about. Proceed with caution."
Then, she responds to Ianez's musings.
"Indeed. As a group, our ability to survive is increased, but becomes dependent on our ability to trust each other. Pardon me a moment."
As the group catches up to Quinn, La Siréene changes shape again, this time into a well-dressed, red-haired Halfling.
How oddly large everything has become. And ugh, what a stench. Now, let's see if we can find out anything about the platform or the "bodies" by smell.
Perception check, checking for irregularities, suspicious shapes and strange scents: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (14) + 16 = 30
|Kwanjan Quinn
|Halfling, Shape of Nameless
Inside the train, there are 54 bodies. The unfortunates look like they came mostly from the middle and lower classes, but there are some well-dressed ones among them. The corpses are thrown around like rag dolls. Some were tossed forward and are piled on top of each other. Some were jettisoned from the wreckage completely and lay on the platform nearby.
Down the tunnel with the tracks leading into the station*, there are ghosts skimming through the air, faint white and gray humanoid figures, with expressions of fright or anger on their faces, flickering in and out of a visual. A reasonable conjecture would be that it was these spirits that surprised the engineer and caused him to crash the train.
* This is a different tunnel than the one your party just came through. You passed through the sewer conduit, whereas the train stops also have a separate tunnel for the route of the trains.
|Kwanjan Quinn
|Halfling, Shape of Nameless
Are the Ghosts in our path? What knowledge check would they require?
"There is a crashed train car ahead. 54 dead. Looks like Ghosts caused the crash, down the train tunnel."
|Kwanjan Quinn
Quinn whispers again at the druidess in new form and maintains eye contact on the train and ghosts up ahead.
"Do you think you can think of yourself as a dragon and breathe fire? Or maybe a lemur so you can be carried."
|Kwanjan Quinn
|Halfling, Shape of Nameless
|Gaston Blackacre
knowledge(religion: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11
knowledge(arcana): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
You get the sense that they are tenuously anchored to this location.
|Earl J V Caromarc
|Earl J V Caromarc
|1 person marked this as a favorite.
I stay in the shadows, one with the darkness... I have seen ghosts when I walk the night. But, I did not study them. If I did, I would forget soon after.
The fish was the girl... now the little person. I like being me.
They talk too much. The more people, the more talking, talking, talking... I like to spend time alone.
|Gaston Blackacre
These ghosts have only a tenuous grip on this world. They seem...displaced from somewhere.
A ghost materializes right in front of Caromarc and passes through him.
There is a well-dressed man in a top hat and tails, with mutton chops, waiting on the train platform. There is a governess with a child. An aged banker. A student. A pair of young lovers. You feel a surge of anger towards them. WHO ARE YOU TO BE STANDING HERE IN MY VICINITY? WHAT ARE YOU TO BE SO-BEHIND-A-SCREEN AND...
The same scene, after the passage of time. Other people...a halfling, a half-elf... You've forgotten...and the questions have become WHO? and WHEN? And most scary of all...
You charge towards the halfling and half-elf, and pass through them.
Caromarc throws his arms out to the sides. His whole body is wracked with shudders. You see a ragged specter tear itself away from him and fly down the tunnel. A short ways down the path it blinks out of existence and disappears. Caromarc, La Siréene, and Quinn all faint and collapse to the floor unconscious.
One of the corpses in the train starts to twitch.
|Mechanical Manservant
This thing ate my post!
This thing ate my post TWICE!
Just gonna type it out plainly.
Sandru looks for a defensible position to stash the bodies.
Sandru reach for the fire breath potion.
Wondering if the roof is off the wreckage, if provides higher ground and if it diminishes the area of the breath weapon.
Sandru's speed is 40.
Also wondering if the twitching is a sign of life or unlife.
Perception 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13 defensible position
Climb 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26 if needed, and advantageous
Perception 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13 life or unlife
My previous two posts were much more eloquent, please forgive me I've een at it for about 30 minutes.
The roof of the train car is uneven but intact. You scan the side of the train; it has runners, railings, and knobs such that it would be possible for you to climb it and reach the roof.
As you search for signs of life or unlife, the corpses remain a mystery, but you notice some rats scurrying among them.
|Dr. Hareton Grey
Hareton notices Sandru looking around and sizing up their options. He turns to Blackacre. "Gaston, see if you can rouse our friends." He hands him a couple of vials filled with scented gray crystals. "Take this. Ammonium carbonate. Smelling salts. Hold it near our friends' faces and have them inhale. It might wake them."
He turns to Ianez. "Archaeologist, while the others are occupied, I am interested in examining the bodies. If what Blackacre says about the ghosts is true, it raises some questions worth investigating."
"I was thinking similarly," Ianez replies. "Between my knowledge of the long dead and yours of the recently departed, we might discover something of use." In his characteristic manner, he twitches his coat away from his hip and draws his longsword.
Hareton approaches the train car apprehensively. The archaeologist keeps at his back, proceeding with the same confidence as if he were exploring a pyramid or spelunking an ancient long-lost cavern. Hareton steps carefully and quietly, his body leaning away from the corpses as if he fears at any moment one of them might jump up and attack.
The two men reach the train car. Ianez steps forward, extends one leg, and gingerly prods one of the corpses with his foot. There is no response. He whispers to the doctor, "Go ahead."
It is a breathless moment as Hareton crouches down and fumbles with his diagnostic supplies. He freezes in place. Nothing. Hareton examines the nearest corpse, a middle-aged fellow with a neatly-trimmed beard and a shattered monocle. He pokes at it in several places. He looks at the pallor and bruising of the skin. He pries open an eyelid, examines the eye, opens the mouth and looks inside.
The corpse moans and jerks its head. Hareton leaps backwards and bumps into Ianez. Ianez catches himself and points his sword. They wait. Nothing. Hareton reapproaches the body and resumes his examination. He completes it, and afterwards, there is a long silence. Then, Hareton speaks. "It is nothing, Ianez. Just the settling of gas and some fluids. These people have not long been deceased."
Hareton and Ianez return to the group. Dr. Grey puts a hand on Sandru's shoulder. "Sandru, thank you for your preparation and vigilance. But it looks like this time we are in the clear. I don't think those corpses in the train include any zombies."
"Blackacre, you said that the ghosts have a tenuous grip on the world. The passengers on the train are recently deceased. Once we revive our companions, I would like to figure out what befell them so we can compare notes on this phenomena. It may provide an important clue."
...Dr. Grey puts a hand on Sandru's shoulder. "Sandru, thank you for your preparation and vigilance. But it looks like this time we are in the clear. I don't think those corpses in the train include any zombies."...
The rats already come... You know better than me.
I place the dragon-breath into one of my pockets and relax only a fraction... moving to pick up the girl, now in some smaller red-headed form. Propping her against the wall, in as comfortable a position as possible...
Machine-man, come bring the smelly salts and, Caromarc. Gaston can wake the policeman.
|Dr. Hareton Grey
Hareton looks on as Sandru, the Mechanical manservant, and Blackacre wake the others. When they come to, he is full of questions.
Quinn and Caromarc, you both were investigating the ghosts when you blacked out. Did you observe anything interesting?...
All three of you fainted. What did you experience?...
The passengers in the train aren't zombies, just corpses recently deceased. Do you think what you experienced has any connection?...
|Halfling, Shape of Nameless
Nameless's mind returns slowly to its current shape. Then, the shape of Nameless stirs and slowly opens her eyes, finding Sandru's eyes before hers.
A smile. Tired and faint, but somehow still very warm.
"Always... looking out for me... aren't you, Sandru?"
Such a caring, selfless construct...
A small hand grips Sandru's. She swallows, tries to speak clearly. Her tone breaks regardless.
"Thank… you."
In truth, a rarity.
She turns her head to Hareton, listening to his questions without moving until he finishes. Then, she speaks, tone steady now.
"Ragged, semi-transparent form appeared, entered Jornel, rippling reality. I felt. Cold. Exited him, he struck out his arms, shuddered. Form disappeared down the tunnel, shifting out of our existence. Consciousness lost."
The shape of Nameless takes her time considering the last one.
"Perhaps. The apparitions are not specifically hostile. Raging, passionate. About the situation. But not about bodies, not about us. Misaimed, mindless destruction."
|Halfling, Shape of Nameless
|Earl J V Caromarc
|Dr. Hareton Grey
Hareton takes the tanglefoot bag. "Thank you, druidess."
He turns to Caromarc, his brow knitted in puzzlement. "What? You had a vision of that? Can you explain further? You saw through something else's eyes? Who did it see? Why was it angry?" He adds, "It might help you to know a ghost invaded or merged with you...not sure what exactly. It's gone now."
"I wouldn't normally make preposterous conjectures, but lately we've seen things that defy belief. So I ask...perhaps you mingled your consciousnesses or something?"
I offer my water skin. The girl seemed thirsty.
This is where the club is... maybe the break-between-worlds is worse here.
Maybe this is the center... Caromarc, what are the words you use? Ground Zero?
That's all I have... I go check on the policeman.
|Halfling, Shape of Nameless
|Earl J V Caromarc
Caromarc takes the water skin with a shaking hand
"I... I suppose..."
he breathes in deeply with his eyes closed, and concentrates on clearing his mind as if casting a spell. When he breathes out he speaks quietly and dispassionately.
"There was a definite sharing of at least one memory. Possibly a merging of conciousness, but I can't guarantee it. Momentary spiritual possession sounds reasonable."
Looking at Sandru's retreating back
"Sandru's hypothesis is reasonable. It is also possible this was a singular ghost, and that the - let's use the word souls - of those killed have somehow formed additional ghosts. Viral spectres are not an unknown phenomenon."
Caromarc tips his head sideways
"Some of the concepts being thought don't seem to translate well. I suspect that the initial creature was angry at the living for their presence here. It didn't think like that though. There was no word... I can't describe it."
Caromarc pauses
"You know how sometimes in a dark room you can see through a thin curtain into the daylight? Like that. They were in the light, it was in the dark."
Caromarc stops
"No, that's not quite right either."
Looking up from the policeman's body beside Blackacre, I have an idea but find it hard to form the words.
Maybe they are not in our way. We cannot be so self... self-centered. We are in their away. When people die their souls go somewhere, right? Maybe this is the path they have to take.
Maybe now, our world is in their way... both sides are confused. Sand-men, bats and hell-dogs do not go together. I am trying to sense a pattern... it helps me think.
This is mixed up, no pattern... random.
|Dr. Hareton Grey
"Mixed up, yes," Hareton says. "But not entirely random. I've treated half-elves as patients before, and as we saw against the sandmen, Quinn is immune to mind-effects. This leads me to think whatever knocked him out was on par with a stunning physical blow. Likewise, I've observed our druid friend is relatively resilient against mental enchantments and such. The fact that they were both so easily knocked out, it seems the exact opposite of what should have happened."
"What if what occurred wasn't some magical sleep or mind effect at all, but as Blackacre says instead a displacement. Maybe a temporal displacement. What if something tried to displace Quinn and the others, but couldn't, and as a result knocked them out? Causing a neural overload?"
Ianez clears his throat. "There is something like that. What is known in certain academic circles as "the reversal effect." Osirion archaeologists uncovered evidence in pyramids of rituals using threnodic spells, metamagic that converts mind-effecting spells into energy that is capable of influencing or controlling the undead. It was used in the hopes of resurrecting their pharoahs."
Hareton is excited by this news. "Exactly!" he says. "So, I'm trying to think this through logically. If Quinn is immune to mind-effecting spells, what if something like threnodic energy knocked him out? Which leads to the second person in question, Lord Caromarc. He isn't immune to mind-effecting spells, but we've seen twice now he's been the target of some type of unusual magical feedback. What if, due to his affinity with arcane energies and his specialization in teleporting...if you think about that at it's most basic level, it's moving objects from point A to point B...he is unwittingly serving as an antenna for the reversal effect? Differently put, the effect is traveling down arcane pathways from somewhere and Caromarc is a receptor or magnet?"
"This could account for the ghosts' displacement and why we're seeing the flood of undead onto our plane. Maybe the reversal effect, or some sort of temporal-spatial tear, is traveling down arcane pathways and causing all of these strange disturbances?" Reversal of death. Raising the dead in massive numbers?"
He finishes this train of thought, pleased with himself. Suddenly, he frowns. He turns to La Siréene. "That doesn't explain the third target, however. There must have been some reason it targeted her." He taps his finger to his chin, his eyes unthinkingly coming to rest on the Olivia's heart pendant.
It is glowing a bright blue.
|Dr. Hareton Grey
Ianez considers Hareton's theory. "If these strange goings-on involve a temporal displacement, it might account for the energy of these ghosts. Doctor, you said the corpses in the train had recently passed away. But what if the ghosts are the spirits as they exist now, and also as they exist at some future time? And both states are here together...simultaneously?"
"Although Osirian priests didn't think of it this way themselves, scholars speculate that their rituals weren't actually aimed at resurrecting pharoahs, but as a way to access multiple universes. To go back in time to when the pharoah was alive, and bring him forward into the future, to a time when he was dead. Or to access an alternate universe where the dead king had never died in the first place, and bring that version of him back into their own universe."
"Whichever way you cut it, it added up to the same result. A new lease on life."
He raises an eyebrow, looks at Hareton skeptically. "By the way, Grey, how do you know so much about 'temporal displacement' and 'arcane pathways?' They do not seem like areas of expertise for someone in your discipline."
Hareton returns a blank, rather naïve look. "You know, I don't know. I'm not sure. It just came to me. I just knew."
My head hurts... Too much talking, again.
I leave Blackacre and the policeman and move to the wreck and climb steadily taking my time. The dead are quiet, even today... and better company for me. When they do talk, it is slow and they usually stay on one subject.
Reaching the wrecked roof I sit on the edge, pulling one knee up to my chest and hugging it. I let the other leg hang over the edge.
I watch them talk about thing I don't understand... yet.
And, of course I watch and listen for approaching danger.

Nokia relaunches the N86
Nokia relaunches the N86
In what has to be one of the sloppiest undertakings we've seen in recent history, Nokia has officially announced the N86 8MP today at Mobile World Congress. First it was presumed to be a leak, then it was revealed to be a bungle and now Nokia has finally decided to show off its first 8 megapixel camera phone in Barcelona. In other words, a company that has openly complained about leaks on several occasions went to Singapore and publicly displayed an unannounced handset, allowing it to be handled and photographed by the public. While you try to wrap your head around that one, let's move on to the specs…
Aside from the 8 megapixel shooter with a shutter speed of up to 1/1000 of a second, f-stop range of 2.4-4.8 and a wide-angle lens that Nokia absurdly states is equal to that of a wide-angle 35mm SLR, the N86 8MP runs S60 3rd Edition FP2 and features a 2.6″ AMOLED QVGA display, 8 GB of internal storage, Wi-Fi and aGPS with Nokia Maps 3.0 pre-installed. Thankfully, it will indeed be available for use in North America by way of our very own tri-band HSPA model though we can't say for sure if it will launch around the same time as the Euro model. Battery life isn't terrible with a rated talk-time of 3.9 hours 3G / 6.3 hours EDGE and standby falling in at 11.5 hours 3G / 13 hours EDGE. Last but not least we have the dimensions and the N86 8MP a big boy indeed, coming in at 103.4mm x 51.4mm x 16.5mm and 149g. All in all it's a handset with a great camera, above average specs and horrible display resolution – Nseries up and down. Expect to see the N86 8MP begin shipping sometime in Q2 for €375 ($474 USD) and hit the jump for some pics and the obligatory press release.

Mike Oldfield: Tubular Bells; Iggy And The Stooges: Raw Power
Simon Frith, Let It Rock, August 1973
SOME RECORDS GET so much critical attention that I cant listen to them blind, cant ignore other opinions. So, according to John Peel Tubular Bells represents "the first breakthrough into history that any musician regarded primarily as a rock musician has made." And Dave Marsh argues that Raw Power is already "the best album of the 70s" Iggy has "summed everything up and it took him only nine songs to do it."

Points to Ponder About Your Marriage and Family Healing

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whoever believes in Him, should not perish but have everlasting life."
Eternal Life (Click on this link)
2. God hates divorce! (Malachi 2:16)
"For the Lord God of Israel hates divorce, For it covers one's garment with violence," Says the Lord of hosts. "Therefore, take heed to your spirit, That you do not deal treacherously."
3. Jesus is the Healer. (Luke 4:18)
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
4. Don't ever underestimate the power of prayer! (James 5:16)
"Confess your trespasses one to another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much."
5. A little faith goes a long way in God's kingdom.
(Matthew 21:21-22)
"Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith, and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, be removed and be cast into the sea, it will be done. And whatever you ask in prayer believing, you will receive."
6. Forgiveness is a healing balm. (Ephesians 4:31-32)
"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you."
7. Your spouse is
your enemy. (Ephesians 6:12)
"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."
8. Love never fails. (1 Corinthians 13:4-8a)
"Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek it's own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
bears all things; hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails....
9. Nothing is impossible with God, including your family being healed. (Mark 10:27)
"But JESUS looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God, all things are possible."
Prayer for your marriage restoration & healing!

Pantone Universe Color of the Year Collection: Emerald
During my last Sephora shopping trip, I noticed that Pantone had released a new Color of the Year kit for 2013. Last year the color was Tangerine, and I loved everything I got. The shades were great, pigmented, and so gorgeous.
Because of that, I immediately added this kit to my order. It includes most of the items Pantone came out with for this year's color, Emerald, although each of these is also available individually. Check it out!
Color Code Prismatic Shadow Block: Emerald
Color Code Prismatic Shadow Block: EmeraldColor Code Prismatic Shadow Block: Emerald
The Prismatic Shadow Block is one of the better items in this kit- it's pigmented and smooth and would work really well as a shadow base. I don't think I would use this alone, as it doesn't set as nicely or quickly as you would need it to to prevent creasing.
Color Watt Highlighting Mascara: Emerald
Color Watt Highlighting Mascara: EmeraldColor Watt Highlighting Mascara: EmeraldColor Watt Highlighting Mascara: Emerald
If you like colored mascara, I would recommend this because the color is really bright and noticeable. This would work best on lighter lashes, or used with a white eyelash primer.
Bionic Color Grid Shadow Block (Sorry for this one looking broken, it was like that when I opened the package) :/
Bionic Color Grid Shadow Block

Bionic Color Grid Shadow Block: Emerald, White Alyssum, Crown Blue
First of all, sorry for the close up shots of the shadow here, when I received this kit in the mail this palette came loose and the white shadow is super soft, so it cracked a little. This shadow trio really disappointed me. The emerald shade is nice, but the white is way, way overly shimmery, and the blue/purple shade is just plain bad. Chalky, skippy, blah. I do like the packaging, with the magnetic clear top and mirror on the bottom.
Graphic Sculpt Jumbo Waterproof Eyeliner: EmeraldGraphic Sculpt Jumbo Waterproof Eyeliner: EmeraldGraphic Sculpt Jumbo Waterproof Eyeliner: Emerald
This jumbo pencil has a nice shimmer and is creamy and easy to apply. would work well as a shadow base or on its own, as it sets a bit quicker than the cream shadow box.
Color Cube Lid Liner Stain: Emerald
Color Cube Lid Liner Stain: EmeraldColor Cube Lid Liner Stain: EmeraldColor Cube Lid Liner Stain: Emerald
This is by far my favorite product in this kit. Don't let it mistake you for a gel liner, as it's much creamier. You could definitely use it as one, you just need to be careful not to get too much product on your brush (its easy to do!) This lid liner stain has amazing pigmentation and is absolutely gorgeous, and if you were to get one thing from this collection, I'd recommend this!
Lightspeed Glitter Dust: Emerald
Lightspeed Glitter Dust: EmeraldLightspeed Glitter Dust: Emerald
I can't even begin to tell you how disappointed I was with this glitter dust. It looks amazing in the package, aaaaand that's about where the amazingness ends. When applied dry, it barely shows up, and when applied wet, it doesn't apply anywhere near evenly. I also tried applying it over the lid stain, and it was a patchy mess. I honestly can't believe Sephora/Pantone would release this at all, it's that bad!
Overall, this kit is the definition of hit and miss. Half of the items are decent, the other are really not great at all. I would recommend checking out the products individually, as some of these are definitely not worth picking up.
Color of the year kit is available from Sephora for $68.

Whilst I agree that there are some sugestions that the namw "Kidd" has anglo-saxon beginings I believe that there are also strong reasons to associate "Kidd" with the North and East of Scotland. There are in these regions, and in particular Angus and Buchan districts, very high concentrations of population bearing this name both past and present to suport the Norse or Northern and Eastern Scotland origins of the name "Kidd".

Stratford indie pop stars — and spouses — Mates of State will open for Postal Service on several dates on the latter band's current reunion tour.
Mates of State — keyboardist/vocalist Kori Gardner and drummer/vocalist Jason Hammel — will join Postal Service for their performances at Air Canada Centre in Toronto on June 11, Bank of America Pavilion in Boston on June 12 and the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. on June 14, among other dates. For tickets, go here.
Mates of State last hit the road in late December during a break in recording. The band is currently working on the follow up to their 2011 studio album, "Mountaintops."
Originally from San Francisco, Gardner and Hammel have lived in Stratford for the last six years, where they've raised their young daughters, June and Magnolia.
Postal Service — the electropop trio comprised of vocalist Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie), producer Jimmy Tamborello (Dntel, Headset) and vocalist Jenny Lewis (Rilo Kiley) — reunited earlier this year to re-release their platinum-selling debut album, "Give Up," and launch a North American tour.

Give me history!
I wanted to dislike the recent Nova special Hunting the Elements, an attempt to place the periodic table and its contents in a broader context for the average PBS viewer. After all, the list of experts did not include a single historian. How can a broad, robust exploration of this icon of chemistry exclude the history of the science behind its creation?

text: Recently massive plastic patches such as the one in the North Pacific Gyre, which is estimated to weigh over 3 million tons and covers an area twice the size of Texas, have gained international attention. According to researchers, this happens due to a clockwise trade wind that encircles the Pacific Rim. Today has a good video which describes it. VSB has a science lesson plan which explains ocean currents by using the floating rubber duckies we blogged about last year.Share:

San Mateo, California –18 January, 2011 – Stick Man Rescue, a humorous game in which players must save stick men from hilarious deaths, is now available in Europe for the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system as a "mini" title. Developed and published by TikGames, Stick Man Rescue is available for only €2.99.
"Win or lose, players will enjoy this game," said Alex Tikhman, Co-Founder and VP of Publishing & Business Development for TikGames. "If they do well and save the stick men, they'll progress through the game. If they don't do well, or if they purposely fail for some strange reason, they'll get to watch stick men get squished by steam rollers, decapitated by ninja paratroopers, or be blown up by an 'accidental' bomb from the player's own copter."
Stick Man Rescue is an action/arcade game in which players must pilot a futuristic troop transport copter as they fly through thirty dangerous levels filled with deadly traps in an attempt to rescue black stick men. The Evil Blue Stick Minions are out in force, with stick murder on their minds. Players must prevent their stick men from being burned alive, smashed, decapitated, blown up, electrocuted, dissolved by acid, and other classic demises. To combat the Evil Blue Stick Minions' zeppelins, paratroopers, and steam rollers, players can power up their copter with weapons like bombs, missiles, flame throwers, and more. Of course, players could just sit back and idly watch their stick men die hilariously horrible deaths…but then they wouldn't finish the level. What to do, what to do?
Stick Man Rescue has been rated 12+ (Violence) by PEGI. For more information, please visit www.TikGames.com.

Weakness in the pose can appear in the lower body as lumbar hyperextension combined with hip flexion. To counter this, the hip extension action of the hamstrings is important.
In the upper body, weakness in the triceps brachii and serratus anterior can show up as a downward rotation of the scapulae and an overuse of the pectoralis major and minor.
Depressing the scapulae by recruiting the latisssimus dorsi can give a feeling of strength in the back, but it contributes to hyperextension of the lumbar spine and a downward rotation of the scapulae.

STOCKHOLM | Mon Oct 3, 2011 7:48am EDT
(Reuters) – Three scientists who unlocked secrets of the body's immune system, opening doors to new vaccines and treatments for cancer, won the 2011 Nobel prize for medicine on Monday.
American Bruce Beutler and French biologist Jules Hoffmann, who studied the first stages of immune responses to attack, shared the $1.5 million award with Canadian-born Ralph Steinman, working in the United States, who discovery of dendritic cells key to understanding the later stages.
"This year's Nobel laureates have revolutionized our understanding of the immune system by discovering key principles for its activation," the award panel at Sweden's Karolinska Institute said in a statement in Stockholm.
Lars Klareskog, who chairs the prize-giving Nobel Assembly, told Reuters: "I am very excited about what these discoveries mean. I think that we will have new, better vaccines against microbes and that is very much needed now with the increased resistance against antibiotics.
"I also expect that there will be some development in the area of attacking cancers from the self-immune system. There are some promising things there."
Annika Scheynius, a professor of clinical allergy research and a member of the panel, said: "We are definitely sure that these discoveries will lead to health improvement … They can improve the health of patients with cancer, inflammatory diseases, auto-immune diseases, asthma."
Beutler, 53, is based at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California. Luxembourg-born Hoffmann, 70, conducted much of his work in Strasbourg. They will share half the 10 million Swedish crowns ($1.46 million) of prize-money. The rest goes to Steinman, 68, from Rockefeller University in New York.
The work of the three scientists has been pivotal to the development of improved types of vaccines against infectious diseases and novel approaches to fighting cancer. The research has helped lay the foundations for a new wave of "therapeutic vaccines" that stimulate the immune system to attack tumors.
Better understanding of the complexities of the immune system has also given clues for treating inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, where the components of the self-defense system end up attacking the body's own tissues.
Medicine, or physiology, is usually the first of the Nobel prizes awarded each year. Prizes for achievements in science, literature and peace were first awarded in 1901 accordance with the will of dynamite inventor and businessman Alfred Nobel.
The award citation noted that the world's scientists had long been searching for the "gatekeepers" of the immune response by which man and other animals defend themselves against attack by bacteria and other micro-organisms.
Beutler and Hoffmann discovered receptor proteins that can recognize attacking microorganisms and which activate "innate immunity," the first step in the body's immune response.
"Ralph Steinman discovered the dendritic cells of the immune system and their unique capacity to activate and regulate adaptive immunity, the later stage of the immune response during which microorganisms are cleared from the body," it added.
Hoffmann's pioneering research was actually conducted on fruit flies, highlighting how key elements of modern human biology have been conserved through evolution.
The immune system exists primarily to protect against infections but it can also protect against some cancers by targeting rogue cells before they proliferate.
Sometimes, however, the immune system goes into overdrive and attacks healthy tissue, leading to autoimmune inflammatory diseases, such as type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis, as well as rheumatoid arthritis. The effect is often compared to "friendly fire," when troops hit their own comrades in combat.

Jun 23, 2013 ... Music on Winter Sundays – NSW Police Band ... The first concert in the series for 2013 will feature a performance from the NSW Police Band.
The Police (band)
The Police were an English rock band formed in London in 1977. For the majority of their history, the band consisted of Sting (lead vocals, bass), Andy Summers (guitar) and Stewart Copeland (drums). The Police became globally popular in the late 1970s and are generally regarded as one of the first new wave groups to achieve mainstream success, playing a style of rock that was influenced by punk, reggae, and jazz. They are also considered one of the leaders of the Second British Invasion of the US. They disbanded in 1986, but reunited in early 2007 for a one-off world tour lasting until August 2008.
Their 1983 album, Synchronicity, was number one on both the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200, and sold over 8 million copies in the US alone. They have sold more than 75 million records, making them one of the world's best-selling artists of all time. They were the world's highest-earning musicians in 2008, thanks to their reunion tour.
The band has won a number of music awards throughout their career, including six Grammy Awards, two Brit Awards—winning Best British Group once, an MTV Video Music Award, and in 2003 were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Four of their five studio albums appeared on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. The Police were included among both Rolling Stone's and VH1's lists of the "100 Greatest Artists of All Time".

Local access to subspecialty care influences the chance of receiving a liver transplant
Barritt AS 4th, Telloni SA, Potter CW, Gerber DA, Hayashi PH. Liver Transpl. 2012 Dec 5. doi: 10.1002/lt.23588. [Epub ahead of print]
University of North Carolina, Department of Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology. firstname.lastname@example.com.
Background: Prior studies have examined the impacts of demographic factors on liver transplant outcomes. These factors may be surrogate markers for access to medical care. We investigated physician density in referred patients' hospital service areas as a factor in patients' probability to receive a liver transplant. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of patients referred for liver transplantation from 2002 through 2010. Data on physician density was obtained from the Dartmouth Atlas. The primary outcome was receipt of a liver transplant. Cox Hazard Analysis was used to control for various demographic and medical covariates. Results: 1485 adult patients were considered for liver transplant over the time period. Factors that influenced the hazard of receiving a liver transplant were MELD score at referral [HR 1.11 (1.09 - 1.14) per point], secondary diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma [HR 2.76 (1.76 - 4.20)], blood group AB [OR 2.98 (1.52 - 5.87), referent A], the type of insurance [Medicare OR 0.36 (0.14 - 0.89); referent commercial insurance], and the number of gastroenterologists in a hospital service area [OR 1.12 (1.01 - 1.25) per increase in each gastroenterologist per 100,000 population]. Age, race, sex, distance to transplant center, or residence in a rural community did not influence the hazard to receive a liver transplant. Conclusions: The hazard of receiving a liver transplant is influenced by diagnosis, MELD, and insurance status; in addition patients were 12% more likely to receive a transplant for each unit increase in gastroenterologists per 100,000 population in their local hospital service area. Local access to gastroenterology subspecialty care is an important factor in receiving a liver transplant.
