Moore School career prep opens doors
By Peggy Binette, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-7704
"Make a plan. Work the plan."
This simple mantra has guided Georgia Holmes Doran since she was a child. Whenever she found herself in a difficult situation, her father, Dr. George R. Holmes, professor emeritus of the USC School of Medicine, would reassure her that she was smart and capable enough to handle it and that all she needed to do was to "make a plan and work the plan."
As the director of career management at the Darla Moore School of Business, Doran, 48, is helping more than 2,500 business students develop and carry out their own personal branding plans.
"You're marketing yourself for the job market and internships," Doran tells students.
When Doran arrived at the University of South Carolina in 2001, the Moore School's career services only worked with graduate students. As the school continued to grow in academic stature -- extending its national reputation beyond international business to include areas of emphasis in risk management and insurance, finance, global supply chain management and accounting – it expanded its career services to juniors and seniors, complementing services available to all USC students through the university's Career Center.
"We've gone from working with 400 graduate students to working with more than 2,500," Doran said. "Students are our product. We want to offer them career and professional development to match the same level of the Moore School's high academic standards."
Doran said that students who work the hardest are the ones who will be offered the best jobs.
"Despite the economy, the jobs are there. It takes longer, but perseverance will always pay off," she said.
Making a plan
To help prepare students, Doran, along with career services' Trish Jones and former director Jane Willis, wrote a textbook and designed a course titled "Business Careers in a Global Economy" for Moore School juniors. Initially taught as an elective, the eight-week course became a requirement in fall 2011. Students apply what they learn in the course to various recruitment situations such as information sessions and the Business Expo.
"Our students have told us they want more interaction with Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies. They expect it from a world class business school. Fall recruitment is a very short window. It's our job to make sure they are ready," Doran said.
The course is intensive. Each student develops a resume that must meet Moore School standards for final approval. They learn how to conduct job searches, explore online resources, manage their digital footprint, dress professionally, practice business etiquette skills, develop a personalized "elevator pitch" and sharpen their communication skills. They take career assessments to focus their career goals, and nearly every Friday more than 100 students each receive an in-person mock interview conducted by a professional in the business community as well as personal feedback at the end of the interview.
Doran said career preparation is tailored to the Moore School experience and brand.
Since the course became a requirement, she said the number and the nature of student visits to her office have changed.
"We're not seeing as many visits because students are so prepared through the class and other services we offer. Now our consultations with students are about how to negotiate a job offer or how to find a mentor. Students are looking for deeper, more meaningful advice, and that's exactly what we want," Doran said.
She said only a few business schools in the country offer a course similar to that of the Moore School.
Working the plan
Moore School students have more opportunities than ever to network and interview with major corporations. The Business Expo, the school's signature recruitment event held Sept. 27, had a record number of Fortune 500 companies participate. This year two-thirds of the 90 companies were Fortune 500. Newcomers included Gulfstream, Southwest Airlines, Home Depot and Sun Trust.
The school also is applying its knack for innovation to the employer side of career services.
It's a standard practice for corporate recruiters to visit college campuses and interview students. The Moore School is going beyond that by working with top echelon companies to create day-long or week-long events for students to learn about that company and for the company to learn about the Moore School curriculum as well as network with students and faculty and identify students to interview.
"Companies are finding they need to work harder and smarter at developing brand awareness with college students," Doran said. "In the next five to 10 years, baby boomers will be moving out and taking their knowledge with them. Companies know they need to transfer that knowledge to the next generation in order to provide continuity. They realize they must plan ahead and be strategic in their planning for future leadership."
The Moore School corporate days, a novel concept among business schools, are giving companies a chance to do that planning. While each one is structured differently based on the needs of the company, all of them are big splash events that transform the Moore School with the look and feel of an Eaton, Shell, Ingersoll Rand, Boeing, Exxon Mobil, Bosch or Coca Cola.
"It's a win-win all around," Doran said. "Darla Moore School of Business students are showcased and become aware of the multitude of opportunities in a variety of companies, and the companies secure great talent."
The Moore School recently was designated as one of Coca-Cola's core schools for recruiting. However, the Sept. 11 corporate day was a first for the company of the world's best known brand. Impressed by the event and particularly by the high talent level of the school's global supply chain management students, Coca Cola recruiters have asked that additional interview sessions be scheduled.
Doran said students can expect to see the Moore School hosting more corporate days with Fortune 500 companies in the future, giving students more opportunities to work their plans.

LONG BEACH - A group of community activists hope residents will soon get to vote on improving the wages of hospitality workers.
Members of Long Beach Coalition for Good Jobs and a Healthy Community announced Thursday that they would begin efforts to place a citywide measure on the November ballot that would mandate hotel and tourism officials to pay hospitality workers "a living wage."
The proposed initiative would require hotels with more than 100 rooms, the Long Beach Airport and the Long Beach Convention Center to pay hotel and food service workers at least $13 an hour.
Carrying signs and chanting "Si, se puede," members marched straight to the Long Beach City Clerk's Office to file the paperwork.
"This is a historic day in Long Beach," said Gary Hytrek, a Long Beach Coalition for Good Jobs and a Healthy Community member and Cal State Long Beach sociology professor.
"Today, we take the first steps toward improving the working and living standards for hundreds of workers and their families in Long Beach."
In front of City Hall, community members gathered to protest the low wages of Long Beach hospitality workers struggling to make ends meet. They carried signs illustrating workers' paychecks and bills they are barely able to pay.
They highlighted hotel employees such as Romeo Trinidad, a Hilton Long Beach housekeeper of more than 10 years.
"I love my job because I enjoy working at a nice hotel with a lot of friendly co-workers," he said. "But I don't earn enough money to take care of my family."
The Long Beach resident, who makes $10.81 per hour, pays $750 a month for a one-bedroom apartment for his family of four and qualifies for public assistance to pay for housing, electricity and gas.
"If I had a little more money left over, I would rent a two-bedroom apartment so that my kids wouldn't sleep in the living room," he said.
The general manager at Hilton Long Beach did not immediately return a call for comment.
The coalition will need at least 20,000 signatures, or 10percent of Long Beach registered voters. The group has 180 days from the time the city verifies the language of the measure.
"Our campaign for a living wage for hospitality workers is directed at some of the most vulnerable and marginal workers in the city working for some of the city's most profitable global companies," Hytrek said. "This campaign is a win for workers, it's a win for businesses and it's a win for the city."

Hello all,
I've been running BT2 Final for a while now in a dual boot conf. with Windows.
Everything works fine, apart from that most of the times i need to reboot BT2 a few times, cause it does not load drivers properly ,i think.
In other words, when i run Wlassistant, it says "no device found", and therefore it does not display my AP (actually Wlassistant does not even open).
Even when try and configure it manually with iwconfig, it does not help.
Rebooting BT2 a couple of times solves the prolem!
The weird thing is, that everytime i hear a sound through the speakers at KDE startup, everything works fine.While if i don't hear that sound at startup, i cannot connect to my AP.
Hope you guys can tell me why this is happening and/or know the solution to permanently resolve this issue.
I've already searched through the various threads, but with no luck so far!
Thanks :confused:

Soviet Union
In June 1941 Gogmachadze was a member of the 96 Otdelnaya Aviaeskadrilya (OIAE - independent squadron). The commanding officer of this unit was Kapitan Alexandr Korobitzin. The unit was based on Ismail airfield and equipped three Polikarpov I-153s and fourteen Polikarpov I-152s.
During the Axis attack on Soviet Union in June 1941 Rumanian forces attacked the part of the front that included Izmail.
At 14.00 on 22 June 1941 fourteen I-152s and three I-153s of 96 OIAE attacked fourteen Romanian PZL P.37s of Escadrila 76 and 77 over the Danube in southern Bessarabia, claiming five of them shoot down (including two by I-152s).
The 96 OIAE commander Kapitan Alexandr Korobitzin and Leytenant Mikhail Maksimov (whose victim fell into the Danube River) each claimed a destroyed. A shared was claimed by the pilots in Maksimov's flight. One shared was claimed by Starshiy Leytenant Lavrentiy Borisov, deputy commander of 96 OIAE, and Leytenant Nikolai Cherkasov. The fifth, finally, was claimed as a shared between Leytenant Vasiliy Kuroedov (flight commander), Leytenant Leonid Khomutov, Leytenant Alexandr Evstigneev and Leytenant Gogmachadze.
The P.37s were escorted by six Rumanian Hurricane Is, which claimed four victories. The Soviet forces, however, didn't sustain any losses but in the combat was Leytenant Boris Maslov slightly wounded in left shoulder while flying an I-152s.
Three of their victories were later confirmed to the 96 OAE pilots. Fortelor Aeriene Regal ale România (FARR - Royal Romanian Air Force) lost 11 planes this day but only two of them were P.37 Los and these were claimed to have been shot down by anti-aircraft fire.
Gogmachadze ended the war with 1 shared biplane victory.

An orca fetus at the Taiji Whale MuseumI suppose even murderers have families and on this day, the murderers of Taiji stayed home with those families to celebrate the holiday. The weather conditions were perfect for a dolphin hunt, with the sea as still as a deserted forest lake. I could just picture the fishermen looking out of their windows at home and grumbling about the fact that they are forced to stay inside and spend time with their wives and children that they knowingly poison with mercury-laden dolphin meat.
Minamata disease is a very real threat to these people especially for future generations who are at a great risk of being born with deformities. I found some statistics online in regards to a study that was done in Taiji in March of this year by the National Institute for Minamata disease. In this study, 1,137 Taiji residents were tested for the disease via hair samples. The average amount of methyl mercury found in men was 11 parts per million (ppm), compared to a national average of only 2.47 ppm. The women of Taiji showed an average of 6.63 ppm, with the national average being 1.64 ppm. At least 182 Taiji residents showed extremely high levels of mercury and are undergoing additional testing. Japan's National Institute of Population and Social Security Research showed that the mortality rate for Taiji is over 50% higher than other similar-sized villages throughout Japan.
A banger boat gets dry docked for repairsMinamata disease was first discovered in Japan in 1956 after the Chisso Corporation knowingly released methyl mercury into Minamata Bay between the years of 1932 and 1968. Contaminated shellfish were then consumed by the population and by the year 2001, the disease had claimed 1,784 lives with a total of 2,265 victims testing positive for severe mercury poisoning. By 2004, the Chisso Corporation had paid over $86 million in compensation. The general public, with the fishermen whom had harvested the offending seafood in particular, was outraged. So much so that on November 2, 1958, an estimated 1,500 fishermen stormed the Chisso Corporation in a riot and caused over 10 million Japanese Yen (USD 120,000) in damages.
Now, if I put myself into the shoes of the fishermen involved in the Minamata case, I would think that if I found out that my loved ones were being poisoned with a highly toxic element, I would riot too. Being outraged and horrified seems like an appropriate reaction in this instance. However, the fishermen in Taiji are knowingly feeding this toxin to their loved ones and were even selling it to the schools for their children's lunch program, requiring them to eat as children are not allowed to bring their own lunch.
Perhaps these men are in need of some severe education and a crash course history lesson. Or maybe they are simply in need of some common sense, some compassion, and a soul. You would think that poisoning a child would be considered wrong in any country.
If Japan rioted once, they can do it again. The Japanese public desperately needs to stand up and defend themselves against this horror. The people of this country have obedience and tolerance engrained into their brains from such an early age. Will it take another bout of deformed children being born to open their eyes? Or will they simply continue to look the other way and live in miserable permissiveness?
Fishermen hang out with the media crew at the Fisherman's UnionHere is your opportunity to become a Cove Guardian. To join us in Taiji (voluntarily, and completely at your own cost and risk), write to us at firstname.lastname@example.com. We will get back to you, but please be patient. We cannot keep an eye on the Cove and answer e-mails at the same time. Contributions to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society to keep our official presence here are needed and welcome. These contributions cover the costs for transport, telephone, equipment, supplies, food, and lodging for the official Sea Shepherd representative. We will remain here through the end of March and will return for the next season in September 2011.
Thank you to the citizens of Japan who are weighing these issues and beginning to take a stand to solve them. Thank you to everyone who is on the frontlines of this war. This is a war to save ourselves from ourselves. Without your calling and writing Japanese embassies and your own governments, there will be no change. Keep it up! Every time dolphins are pushed into the Cove, let them have it. Every time there is blood in the water, let them have it. Make good consumer choices. Inform everyone you know about the tragedy here and how it is linked to the captive dolphin trade. All who patronize a dolphin show have blood on their hands.
For the dolphins,
Libby Katsinis
Nicole, who will be assisting me during the next three months, will share her experiences while in Taiji on her blog.Rupert Imhoff, who is also assisting with this campaign, has started a YouTube channel of video taken during his time in Taiji.
Please support our work to save dolphins and ocean life around the globe!

If the ports appears open, the ports are in use or iptables bad configured.
In your case you give very less information. My answer is i dont know.
Did you run nmap from VM and Ub at same time? What scan?
I am doing a pentest on a friend's server, and from my main OS (ubuntu), nmap shows a few open ports, but from a Backtrack 4 I have in a virtual machine (virtualbox), I get the same ports filtered.
Does someone knows why this happens and if it can be "fixed"?
If the ports appears open, the ports are in use or iptables bad configured.
In your case you give very less information. My answer is i dont know.
Did you run nmap from VM and Ub at same time? What scan?
Just because a port is open does not mean that it is not filtered.
It would do you well to look into the nmap documentation.
To be successful here you should read all of the following.
If you are new to Back|Track
Back|Track Wiki
Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.
I will try explaining more my situation.
As I understand, a simple port scanning would first send a SYN probe packet, then if it receives a packet with SYN and ACK flags, the port should be open but if it receives a RST/ACK packet then the port is close. Now, filtered ports don't receive neither a SYN/ACK or a RST/ACK packet back after the first SYN packet is sent (not sure if this is correct), and what cause this most of the time is a firewall on the other end.
So, I am doing a simple scan on the target server with
From my main OS (ubuntu 10.04), I get the port 80 open, which means I am receiving a SYN/ACK packet. But when I try the same scan from BT4 (installed in a Virtualbox VM), the result shows the same port as filtered, so nmap is not receiving a SYN/ACK packet as response.Code:nmap <HOST> -v
On the BT4 virtual machine, I connect to the internet using Network Adapter > Attached to > NAT, I just run "/etc/init.d/networking start" and it works fine, I never configured anything else.
I was wondering if I should configure something to get nmap working on the virtual machine as it's working on the main OS, I can't figure out what could be causing this and I couldn't find any info on google about this "problem".
Btw, I am not running the scans at the same time on Ubuntu and BT4.
You don't understand the implications of using Virtualbox NAT. Use bridged networking instead. http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forum...map-issue.html

By Susanna Ray Bloomberg News
U.S. regulators plan to review the new power system that the Boeing Co. created for the 787 Dreamliner after an on-board fire this week followed several incidents last year, a person familiar with the matter said.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration is to announce the review today, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the details aren't yet public. The Dreamliner's design and manufacturing will be part of the evaluation, the person said.
"We actively work with the FAA daily, across all of our product lines," Marc Birtel, a Boeing spokesman in Seattle, said in an emailed statement. "We are absolutely confident in the reliability and performance of the 787."
Telephone and voice-mail messages seeking comment from the FAA weren't immediately returned.


text: Stuart, Would you please make an entry in Bugzilla for this so we don't lose track of it. http://www.clusterresources.com/bugzilla/ Thanks Ken Nielson Adaptive Computing ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stuart Barkley" <stuartb at 4gh.net> To: torqueusers at supercluster.org Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2010 9:03:07 AM Subject: [torqueusers] Three more possible 2.5 (beta) bugs Sorry to do this after the release, but our system is very new and I'm still getting configurations under control. These possible issues are with torque-2.5-beta_0.20100702 (and Moab 5.4). Looking at diffs to 2.5.0 I don't see anything that looks like fixes. Problem 1: pbs_server crash: For a while I was seeing pbs_server crash each time moab was restarted. I was playing with moab REMAPCLASS and REMAPCLASSLIST configurations. With REMAPCLASS disabled pbs_server did not crash. guess: I had something queued which was being remapped upon moab restart which would crash pbs_server (the jobs do not get remapped). After restarting pbs_server things where okay and new jobs where remapped correctly. Additional note: There was a large array job with both running (~1500) and queued (~1000) tasks. There may have been some confusion when the queued tasks where attempted to be remapped. Some more notes: I've just seen another instance of this problem. If I submit several jobs quickly which need to be remapped pbs_server will die. If there is only a single job needing to be remapped when moab restarts pbs_server does not die and the remapping happens. It looks like pbs_server dies if multiple remaps happen either two quickly or simultaneously. Queuing a single array job does not crash pbs_server. I see the individual tasks get remapped over time. Problem 2: pbs_server lost array job subtasks. Somewhere while doing various server process restarts and configuration changes (as above) pbs_server seems to have lost details about all of the array job tasks. "qstat -a" still shows the main job but "qstat -a -t" doesn't show anything about the array job. The jobs still appear to be running but nothing seems to know about them. Problem 3: I'm still learning and this may not be a real bug. (I think) 2.4.7 was successfully copying output files from the compute nodes back to the user login node. After upgrading to 2.5 beta this stopped working correctly. The problem seemed to be that the hostname in Output_Path is now the name of the public network interface instead of the name of the private network. The compute nodes do not have any routing to the public network so where not able to scp the files back. It is possible I had some other configuration in 2.4.7 which made this work and I lost the configuration when I upgraded to 2.5-beta. My current work around has been to NAT the compute nodes to the public side, but I don't want to do this long term. I've just recently seen the pbs_mom man page update which describes spool_as_final_name. This looks like something useful in our site as the compute nodes do have shared user home directories. I'm still looking for a good BCP on how a current day HPC cluster should be setup. Final notes: I am going to be out of the office all next week so I need to stop playing with this today and let things settle down for the users. I won't be able to do any further testing. When I return I hope to upgrade to the latest 2.5.X and adjust compute node configurations.

Discussion in 'Works In Progress' started by wondersonic, Feb 14, 2012.
A spin-off of this wonderful video game:
This looks very good, I love the starting music! Also I don't know if it was the video but the sfx had a lot of noise at some point. Also,The ship needs to shoot something! Keep it up!
It is a known issue related to the capture tool.
Indeed, in the second level!
Webplayer for first level.
Wow looks great.
I can't think of any side scrolling shooters that go from right to left. very unique.
You can't link html files like that from google code. You need to use Dropbox. It's free and works for what you're trying to do.
Hehe pretty cool, love the asteroid field.
Although where is the skill involved? Seems like u just fly into everything?
You got to try it yourself (see the webplayer link above)
Skill involved: your shield power decreases over time + it takes time to reload (check the shield color) + asteroid movement are random...
Done now! ;D
Version 0.0.13 just deployed! See webplayer in the first post:
Second level WIP:
1st part done at 75%:
2nd part at 40%:
version 0.0.14 released (see webplayer link above)
this looks great! If it weren't a remake I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
By "remake" I mean: I already developped the first 3.1 levels (3rd never finished: too ambitious) in Java/OpenGL but with Unity3D it is ways faster! I just remade the 2 first levels in 2 months instead of 10!
Also this is a spin-off occuring at the very end of the original video game! This is a complete new game with gameplay, musics and graphics inspirations.
Oh ok, thank you for the clarification on that.
Looks really promising. Really! I will be following the development of your game, Wonder.
A few comments
The good:
- The music
- The visuals
- The sound FX
- The wow factor (even if it's at an early stage)
- Shield management for solid obstacles.
- Right to left.Left to right. I like it.
- I could go on for awhile like that.
The bad:
- While the asteroid field gameplay works well (shield conservation vs.use at the right time) it's too repetitive. I can see, as a level by itself, this gameplay last for maybe 30 seconds, with waves coming at the ship instead of a constant rain of rock, and then, you know, more and more near the end until it's like it is right now. But I'd do it progressively. And why not during a regular mission?
- Ship speed a bit too fast? (you probably planed on having speed upgrades, but still)
- The fact that you can go that much lower and above the main screen height makes you lose track of the center of the screen. (more of a problem in level 2 I'd say.)
- You should go for some shooting in level 1 too to serve as a shooting tutorial.
- While I know you are not done with other levels, Level 2 is way too fast IMO. You don't have time to see the threats and the blocked off paths + for a speedy type of sequence like that, I wouldn't allow the ship to go above/below the main screen height. This would help a lot for judging where the ship is on screen vs. the world and you could still do very tight branching paths/obstacle avoidance.
- If you really want the ship to go that fast, why not a slow down button for tricky maneuvers?
- I reached the planet at the end of level 1, and I was confined in the upper right corner with no other option but to try and shield my way through the planet only to see I can't get past it. I died a few times and then an entrance suddenly appeared at the bottom and the ship was automatically taken inside of it.
Keep up the good work, Wonder!
Well, thank you very much, encouragments are always welcome
Progressively, why not. I'll have a think about it! However, you didn't mention the fun part of this stage. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Also I would like to hear your ideas to make this level less repetitive. I've got some ideas as some kind of "giant rotating donut" asteroid invincible that you must pass by flying through the hole. I thought also previously of a comet that would come from the background to cross the screen. Of course you would need to avoid it by going in one of the our corner...
And since this is the place where some space pirats are hiding maybe some space mine could also help.
In the second level, right? Indeed, speed control has been recently implemented.
Yes, for common layout as first level, this is on purpose. But for the second one, I've been struggling to find some "easy to implement" way to make these camera movements less anoying. I finally found a solution again thanks to Unity3D. You can find it in the last release (0.0.15) uploaded few minutes ago.
I've been talked to do so, so the "escape capsule" has now a blaster that was missing in the very first implementation in Java/OpenGL (see webplayer html page for controls).
But again, if you have some 3D/2D models/sprites that you think could make sens in this "asteroid field and space pirats hideout" context, please advise
You better try the new version and tell me. With camera consistency, I think speed is no more an issue. Also the point of this first part of this second level is indeed the speed which is also enhanced by the original game opening theme (but rearranged).
This is a very good idea. But too early in the game. I know that with the possibility of Unity3D it would take almost no time. (also playing with music pitch ).
"This is not a bug, this is a feature" as would say a friend. Indeed, you'll learn this trick in the first stage. There is always a good way to go on. Here, it was to avoid aasteroids going from the top (this changes at the end of the level) then since you can't beat the pirat asteroid... go where you can and wait for the cable to take you in the asteroid.
Stay tuned!!!
version 0.0.15 released (see webplayer link above)
Regarding the final scene of the first stage, I'll review some colliders to avoid being able to fly through the green asteroid ) Thanks!
Played the latest version. 0.0.15.
I didn't realize you had a speed modifier key. It didn't seem to do anything in the first level so I ignored it.
Yeah, a few asteroids at first, then more and more... you could have some asteroids come one by one too, these could be faster to test your reflexes.
The fun part? Well, avoiding ast., trying to hit the gold one or entering the planet? I didn't see any other "feature".
All your ideas are good, but I would also add enemy ships to shoot! That's less repetitive. There could be some attached to asteroids that detach when you destroy. the ast.. OR they could be hidden inside ast. ( I got A LOT more ideas, but I don't want to flood the message hehe, maybe we should talk on skype or something if you are interested)
You could start by just duplicating the player ship to use as enemies (if I understood correctly, you don't have sprites for enemies?) After, you can make actual enemy pirate ships. (It's easy to do actually... how did you implement the player ship? did you make it yourself?)
When I said, maybe add some shooting in level 1, I meant enemies to shoot at.
LEVEL 1 planet at the end: If the player is at the top of the screen, he'll try to go around the planet from above. This is where I got stuck. Maybe make the planet bigger and assure that the player can only go downwards and the enter then planet from there.
I didn't see any pirate ast. Was it the one that went fast from the top? If so, it just looked like some lost ast. that tried to crash on me.
LEVEL 2: corridors at an angle are too hard to do. You can't go up or down fast enough. MAYBE it has to do with the ships speed adjustment? Honestly, I can't tell what speed my ship is at. Maybe make it a slow OR fast toggle... just 2 speeds. You know, and if you're in fast mode, the thrusters are of a different color and bigger?
LAST NOTE: where did you get the music for all levels? One sounds like it's from duke nukem 3d??
Again, I got a lot of suggestions and ideas that would improve your game enormously, in term of game flow and design. If you are interested, just PM me.
Indeed, it doesn't work for the escape capsule on purpose. It is a kind of "limited" ship. But it works for the next ships of the next levels.
Ok, you missed the fun part really, check out the first video (v0.0.7). You should see something around 1m25s
Yes, I'll pm you!
Ok, I don't know your knowledge regarding thunder force games, by which ships may I add, I meant, "point one enemy of a given level" (image on the web or youtube) and I'll add it (maybe rework it a little).
The 1st level ship is a part of the 3D model of the Rynex (from TF4). The 2nd level ship is the one in TF3. (I make a progression in the ships you can control to get back a brand new powerful ship in the 3rd level).
I'll increase asteroids coming from the top to force the player to do so
The pirat asteroid head quarter is the massive green one, look closely on the left, there is a discrete "pirat mark"
ok for the speed I'll decrease it (600 -> 500 units), maybe increase it when I'll start coding difficulty levels
The speed meter in in the upper right corner, check the 100% meaning you are at full speed! pressing the speed key, will make it go to 20% -> 40% -> 60% -> 80% -> 100% -> 20%...
In theory, you are escaping from pirats in this level so you start at full speed.
The musics are from the different thunder force episodes, they may be rearranged by some people giving me the right to use them
I'll not hesitate! Thanks for your help!
version 0.0.16 released (see webplayer link above)
Unity web player crashing... oops!
Yes, I just saw that, something related to decompression
As I can't rebuild the webplayer right now, I'm putting back the 0.0.15 version...

The treatment of immigrants in the United States violates the biblical and ethical norms that God requires of his people, according to speakers at a conference at the Catholic Theological Union in Chicago on Nov. 2 about the ethics of immigration. Deportations, for example, often cause suffering for families and children. William O'Neill, S.J., an associate professor of social ethics at the Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University, Berkeley, Calif., pointed out that throughout salvation history God reminds the people of Israel that they are to "love the stranger and the migrant" because they themselves were once exiles. The Gospels describe how Jesus, born away from home, was forced to flee and was brought back, mirroring the story of the Jewish people. "To oppress the alien is no less than a betrayal of faith," said O'Neill. "It is apostasy. Hospitality is the measure of righteousness and justice.... Hospitality is the very heart of Christian discipleship. It is not offered to kith and kin, but to those whose only quality is vulnerability and need."
Welcome the Migrant
This article also appeared in print, under the headline "Welcome the Migrant," in the November 26, 2012 issue.

All-America defensive end Jadeveon Clowney is working hard so he can play this week against Arkansas, South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier said Tuesday.
Spurrier said he will know later in the week if Clowney has recovered enough from his injury to play on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Clowney declared that he remains committed to the Gamecocks and that he is not trying avoid action to protect his NFL Draft prospects.
"Jadeveon has a muscle strain near his rib area that caused him to miss the game last week against Kentucky. He was in pain," Spurrier said Tuesday. "It was diagnosed later, and obviously we all handled it poorly, all of us did."
Clowney (6-foot-6, 274 pounds) surprised his coaches last Saturday when, shortly before kickoff of the game against Kentucky, he said he was in too much pain to play. There was speculation that Clowney was finished for the season to make sure he doesn't hurt his potential No. 1 pick status in next year's NFL Draft, but Clowney disputed that talk.
"Regardless of what people say, I've been behind my team my whole life," he said. "I dedicate myself to this team and this university, that's why I chose to come here."
He blamed the confusion over his unavailability for last week's game on a miscommunication.
"I should have handled it differently instead of just telling (Spurrier) like that, you know," Clowney said.
Spurrier said if Clowney doesn't play another down for the 14th-ranked Gamecocks, the junior still made a tremendous impact on the program.
"We've won 26 games, two 11-2 years, the greatest seasons we've had in 120 years. So none of us need to be upset at Jadeveon. None of us," Spurrier said.
Spurrier is confident the junior is committed to finishing the season on the field.
"I'm all for Jadeveon and his future," Spurier said. "When he is ready to play we're going to put him out there. He has been coming to treatment, I think, twice a day and told me he is doing everything he can to try to get ready to play."

CAMBRIDGE - On a gorgeous day for rowing at the 49th Head of the Charles Regatta, Penn's heavyweight rowing program rowed in the Championship Eights and Championship Fours, posting solid results in its second outing of the 2013 fall slate.
Penn's A boat claimed 20th overall out of 32 entries in the Championship Eights, crossing in 15:25.607. That time was good for 13th among U.S. collegiate crews. The Quakers were mired in a battle with Northeastern's B boat, finishing 0.886 behind the Huskies. OTC Amsterdam was the top overall finisher in 14:41.171, Harvard was the first collegiate crew to cross the line, doing so in 4:43.027. Penn's B boat was 27th in a time of 5:59.058 -- 1.482 ahead of Harvard's C crew.
In the Championship Fours, the Quakers were 19th overall, and 12th out of 13 American collegiate crews. The Red and Blue crossed the finish line in a time of 18:11.261. The Camp Randall Rowing Club was first in 16:35.505 among all entries, Stanford was the first collegiate crew to cross in 16:45.385.
The Quakers are back on the water Oct. 27 at the Princeton Chase.

How do self-published authors get the word out about their work? The same way other professionals get the word out about their businesses – through networking. This is why MOO recommends business cards for authors. In fact, MOO is so confident that your author cards will boost your book sales that they're giving you your first pack FREE.
MOO allows people to design their own business cards, MiniCards, postcards, stickers and more. How is MOO different? They invented Printfinity, which allows you to have a different image on every single card in a pack. It's a great way for you to show off your work. Here are some creative ways for authors to use MOO cards to market their work:
"You can quote me on that."
As an author, you are selling your ability to write. So, give people a taste of what they're going to get. Reel them in! Pull choice quotes out of your work and use them on your cards – it's bound to be a conversation starter.
News and reviews
If you've been reviewed (and obviously, only if it's positive!), why not incorporate the design of your card to include a few of the best lines? The world of professional writing is competitive, so letting people know straight away the good things others have said about your work will help you stand out.
Consider making your cards collectors' items by featuring a different excerpt on each. This works particularly well for poets. When the poems are too long to print on a small card, consider using a QR code to link directly to the poem online.
This is also a great technique for cookbook authors, who can feature different recipes on each card with links to recommendations for what appetizers and drinks to pair with each dish.
Judge my book by its cover
As an author, you obviously value words. But the truth is, in a short period of time – the amount of time, say, that it takes to glance at a business card – most people respond very well to strong images. So if you've got a great book cover, why not use it as the front of your cards? Alternatively, you could use classic literary covers throughout the ages or design something that represents your reading taste.
Ready to start making your MOO card now? MOO is offering Lulu customers 100 free MiniCards (excluding shipping). Hurry – this offer is limited to the first 500 customers, one per customer.

March 21st is World Down Syndrome DayMarch 18, 2011 | In Faculty, Global Health, News Tags: Down Syndrome, Marcia Van Riper, Video, Will You Let Us In, World Down Syndrome Day
March 21st is World Down Syndrome Day. If you are interested in learning about Worldwide activities designed to celebrate this day, check out: http://www.ds-int.org/events/wdsd.
On March 21st, you are encouraged to watch a video Down Syndrome International has developed called "Will You Let Us In." The hope is that if people all over the world watch this video it will help create a single global voice advocating for the rights, inclusion and well-being of people with Down syndrome.
SON Associate Professor Dr. Marcia Van Riper has been doing research with families of children with Down syndrome for over 30 years. Currently, she is working on a study about adaptation and resilience that eventually will include families from at least 6-10 countries. So far, over 250 parents from the US have participated, and data collection with families in other countries is just getting started. Next week, she will be giving a presentation at a conference in Thailand and after the conference she will meet with a professor in Thailand who has expressed interest in helping her collect data from parents of children with Down syndrome in Thailand.
Watch the "I am a Carolina Nurse" VideoMarch 18, 2011 | In Faculty, Global Health, News Tags: Down Syndrome, Marcia Van Riper, Video, Will You Let Us In, World Down Syndrome Day
Being a "Carolina Nurse" has many dimensions. This 7-minute video tells the story from the perspective of students, alumni, faculty, SON and hospital leaders who all experience the quality, energy and emotion of being connected to one of the leading Schools of Nursing in the United States.

I confirm. And I have faced it. We can communicate on this theme. Here or in PM.
Hi everybody,
I'm very new in the Linux and Backtrack world and very happy. But now I have a little problem that I can't solve.
In my PowerBook Pro (OSX 10.8), I installed Bt5v3 with Gnome, RedHat 64 bits and the VMware fusion machine. All is ok.
The problem is that I would like to access to my PowerBook files directly since Backtrack. That comes to three days which I try and which I search on google and I don't find anything, it do not work still there.
In my PowerBook I activated SMB (and share the right folder), on VMware machine I activated the share and mirror folder, but in Backtrack I can't access to it by the local network. Always the same message "impossible to mount".
What's the problem ??? I really don't understand.
Thank you for your attention and sorry for my bad English.
I confirm. And I have faced it. We can communicate on this theme. Here or in PM.
Hi Scelaaleway and thank you very much for your answer,
Yes, really readily to communicate on this topic. I still do not have find resolutions (but I am a beginner in linux BT and it is good way to learn... I remain positive)
I saw that its a good way to use the appletalk with the "mod probe appletalk" (what would be very easy and the best it seems to me. No change on the Mac). And yes, they are some Appletalk files in system of BT5. But it seems that they are only for the network. And I did not find this famous module in my BTR5 VM gnome 32.. For the moment, I found nothing else in Google (other informations as a link to upload this module by example...)
Finally, I planned to go to an Apple Store to ask them how to configure the Mac Server and the SMB Windows share. Not very well...
So for your question, I saw too in this forum that I'm not the only one to search a resolution for this, and there is not answer. If we can communicate here, it is perhaps fine for other people, but if you prefer the pm say it to me. This would admit me very well.
Thanks again and hope see you soon.
Best Regards

Harun Yahya"s article "Superiority Comes From Character, not Race" published in the Oct/Nov., 2001, issue of the magazine states that "all human beings are created the same and in Allah"s sight, the only superiority is a person"s character, his avoiding all types of sin and rebellion, degeneracy, and deviation and the superior morality deriving from his piety."
Harun Yahya is a pen name used by Adnan Oktar, a prominent Turkish intellectual born in 1956. Oktar started his intellectual struggle in 1979 at Mimar Sinan University"s Academy of Fine Arts, where he carried out detailed research into the prevalent materialistic philosophies and ideologies around him. His dedicated intellectual effort against Darwinism and materialism has grown out to be a worldwide phenomenon.

Lane Of Route 4 Closed For Rock Slide Repairs
State transportation officials say traffic on a main route between northern New York and Vermont will be reduced to one lane for four to eight weeks while work is being done to repair damage from a rock slide last month.
Officials say traffic will be controlled by alternating signals on both ends of the closure on Route 4 in Fort Ann, New York starting today. The closure is between Kelsey Pond Lane and Route 22.
Workers are removing additional rock from the slope involved in last month's massive rock slide. There may be temporary closures of both lanes as blasting is done.
The cliff collapsed on Oct. 15, sending 2,000 tons of rocks and boulders onto 200 yards of roadway. The falling rocks narrowly missed several vehicles.

Does anyone use this app for iPhone/Android etc, that allows you to browse forums in a dedicated app? I'm using the free version at the moment and its great, it makes forums a lot easier to read without all the graphics and such.
i was just wondering whether or not Cage Warriors would be adding the Tapatalk plugin, so that its available through there? Would make it a lot easier to browse on smartphones

'The sellout crowd was already in playoff form as chants of "Let's Go Buffalo' and 'Go Leafs Go' went back and forth. And when Buffalo finished the comeback effort when Drew Stafford tipped Thomas Vanek's centering pass into the back of the net with 5:48 left to play, the place erupted. "The crowd, I never heard it that loud out there when we got that fifth one," said Stafford. "That was a huge win for us."'

I am hoping someone can help by getting backtrack and aircrack + other air's tools working on the LG Optimus 2x. It has 5.50gb available and I have used a root uninstaller app to free memory by disabling many apps i dont use.
I am very new to linux and backtrack. I have an LG Optimus 2x. It only has a 5.50 gb free on the internal sd which can be unmounted. It has the external sd. I had to get the backtrack installer apk which sends me two zips one with a 3.36 backtrack img and a backtrack.sh. This is what I also used on the acer a500 but aircrack seems to not install the libssl dev and no monitor mode. On the lg I get an error message when when i vnc and a grey background message says something like
/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256
How can i get backtrack 5, aircrack etc with monitor mode. It should work on here. Please help! I can test what you do. Backtrack seems to work in terminal fine. I have no idea how to partition the sd. The acer a500 has the same wifi chipset as the samsung galaxy tab which can run backtrack and monitor mode for aircrack packages. I believe aircrack installed on the a500 since all the commands in help for aircrack show up in terminal. Do you have to install aircrack in the terminal in backtrack or can you use the terminal android emulator.
I am going to start learning as much as i can and one day give back to the community but for now Im a little lost. lol. I hope you can take on this project, even just one of my two devices. Thanks.

Blogger of the Week: GBO Fashion
This week's BOW is Shannon from her blog GBO Fashion! This girl, she is amazing! I've met her in person and she's just as fantastic there as she is on her blog. She's hilarious, so so nice, and has amazing style. I just know you'll love her as much as I do!
Hi Gentri Lee peeps! So pumped to be here with all of you! Ok, Confession: I may or may not have peed my pants a little when Gentri picked me to be Blog of the Week. Mmmmyep - that happened. Was that TMI? Confession #2: I'm secretly a total Jealous Jillian over how adorable Gentri Lee is. Right? It's not even fair! K anywhooooooo...
My name is Shannon & I run the circus over at GBO Fashion - a blog about personal style, fashion advice, & some other junk occasionally. People always wonder 'what the deuce does GBO mean?' Wool, the best way to answer that is to tell ya about these fine ladies...
These are my three foxy sisters. Aren't they gorge? Well to tell ya the truth, we're all just a bunch of Vain Vanessas who probably care a little too much about how we look (another confession for ya), but as such we'd always get each other's opinion on how we looked before going out while we were growing up. Sort of by accident, we came up with a quick & easy rating system - we'd simply look at each other and say 'GBO?'. Translation: 'Do I look Good, Bad or Ok?'. Now, these gals seem sweet enough from the pic, but don't let em' fool ya - when it comes to rating a fellow sister, they were BRUTALLY honest. Here's a sampling of the kinds of answers we'd get: 'Well your outfit is G but your face is B. You need to go re-cover that naaasty zit on your chin!' Yep! That's about how it went. Are you judging us right now for how ridic we were? Yeah, me too.
Eventually we all grew up & went our separate ways, but we still wanted to be able to get each other's opinions on our outfits & how we looked. And we decided, why not get other people's opinions too! And so was birthed the idea of GBO Fashion - a style blog where you can RATE the outfits posted as either G, B, or O. As I like to say, 'Be inspired by the G's and learn how to avoid the B's!' It's fun! Right guys? Right? Bueller? Bueller? K anywhooooo...
About a year and a half ago, I married THIS dreamboat...
What else goes on over here at GBO, you ask? Oh just a little bit of thisssssssss...
The occasional home decor post! (more pics of our Provo home right HERE.)
And thisssssssssssss...
MENSWEAR MONDAY, every Monday! Cuz boys like to look cute too! Or is my husband usually the one who gets strong-armed into being my male model? Mmmyep. God bless him for the things he's willing to do for his annoying wife.
And thissssssssssssssssss....
Recognize that cutie? That's when she was my STYLE CRUSH for the week! You'll probs recognize last week's too.
And thissssssssssss...
The occasional fitness post (k, can you try not to judge me for this puke-double-puke pic where I look half asleep? And really? Who posts pics of themselves in a sports bra on the internets? Guys trust me - I've judged myself enough for the whole of us. K maybe not. Judge away.). Get ready: we're doing a summer fitness series in June that starts this week! Come check it out. Woot woot!
And thissssssssss....
Weekly WOOTS & WOOFS, every Wednesday! Just a simple way we document the things going on in our lives, some of which are Woot-Woots! And some of which are Woofs (womp womp).
And LOTS of thisssssssssssssssss....
Straight up blooper pics. Cuz nobody likes making fun of me more than I like making fun of me. Plus, what kind of person would I be to withhold these from you? A selfish person. That's what.
K, for those of you gouging out your eyeballs right now from GBO Fashion overload (which probs happened after pic #1), I'm sorry! For you crazies who might be interested in some more of this nonsense, COME ON OVA & give the rating thang a try on today's outfit! It's one big uncensored party over here & everyone's invited. Woot Woot!
Thanks again for having me Gentri dear! Love your guts & livers! And thanks to all you cute Gentri Lee peeps for enduring this post! God bless you for it, and your children, and your children's children, and your children's children's children (SHUTTING.UP.NOW.).
Oh my. She kills me! Too too funny. :) So head on over to Shannon's blog right now! You'll be so glad you did!
