HPRC Blog
Welcome to the HPRC Blog. We've got lots of information here, from quick tips to in-depth posts about detailed human performance optimization topics.
If you've been experiencing pain, burning, numbness, or tingling in one or both of your hands, you might be experiencing symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. This "tunnel" in the wrist carries the important tendons and nerves that supply your hands with motor and sensory functions, allowing your hands to move and feel. Swelling inside the carpal tunnel can squeeze the median nerve that passes through it, causing discomfort. According to the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database, in the military, women are more likely than men to develop this condition. It's also more likely to develop with age and rank. There are surgical and non-surgical treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome, but as the saying goes, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." The University of Maryland Medical Center has advice, which includes:
- Do exercises to keep your muscles and tendon flexible. (See the UMMC link above for detailed instructions.)
- When performing repetitive activities your the wrists and hands, take frequent breaks, even if it's just for a minute or two at a time—called "microbreaks."
- Use correct posture and technique, especially wrist position when using a keyboard or hand tools.
- Make sure that your work area is ergonomically sound. Military-specific information is available from both the Army Public Health Command and the Naval Safety Center.
HPRC's Physical Fitness domain also has a section on Injury Prevention.
The recently released report from the Department of Defense, "Supporting Military Families In Crisis," offers information for families about what to do in a crisis as well as how to prevent crises. The guide focuses on suicide prevention, following the Total Force Fitness perspective, but the information applies to many other areas of military family life, especially the section titled "Building a Resilient Family." HPRC can help your family with many of their suggestions:
- Keep your mind fit: Check out HPRC's Mind Tactics domain for how to go about it.
- Build resilience through coping skills and other strategies: Find information on building resilience in the Mental Resilience section of Mind Tactics.
- Foster a sense of belonging: Try the resources in the Relationship Enhancement and Family Resilience sections of HPRC's Family & Relationships domain.
- Train year-round: Find ideas for getting the most out of your workouts from the Performance Strategies in HPRC's Physical Fitness domain.
- Be aware of your world: Learn specific strategies for coping with extreme environments—heat, cold, high altitude, and more—in HPRC's Environment domain.
- Eat your way healthy: Learn how to fuel your body for optimal performance with HPRC's Nutrition domain.
And to learn how to bring all these aspects together for individual and family resilience in the face of any crisis, spend some time cruising HPRC's Total Force Fitness domain.
If you start to notice hip or knee pain during your PT runs, you might be experiencing iliotibial band friction syndrome—ITBFS for short—a common overuse injury. The iliotibial band, or IT band, is a thick band of fibrous tissue that extends down the outside of your thigh to where it attaches to your tibia (your larger lower-leg bone). As with all injuries to muscles and tendons, prevention is key. In most cases, ITBFS is brought on by combinations of factors—such as increasing your training mileage too fast, running on banked surfaces or downhill, pre-existing IT band tightness, and weakness of the lateral hip muscles—so paying attention to all of these is important for prevention. Incorporate some of these methods into your daily routine to help prevent ITBFS:
- A hip-conditioning program, as recommended by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, can help you prevent ITBFS.
- Self-myofascial release methods such as foam rolling can be helpful with this hard-to-stretch area of your leg.
- Don't do too much too soon. Gradually increase your running mileage or workout intensity. Guidelines for healthy adults include: (1) Increase the duration of your exercise program 5-10 minutes every one or two weeks over the first four to six weeks; or (2) increase your weekly training volume by no more than 10% per week.
- Stretches for the IT band and other muscles of the thigh and lower leg should be held for 30 seconds and repeated three to five times daily.
If you already have ITBFS, you probably notice more pain in the lateral (outside) hip or knee when you run downhill or when lengthen your stride. If left untreated, it also can lead to pain when you walk up and down stairs or sit for long periods of time with your knees flexed. Of course, you should consult with your physician for proper diagnosis and treatment. On your own, however, care usually includes the RICE and ISE methods.
Allowing time for the iliotibial band to heal is important for full recovery, so consider an alternative training routine (take a break from running and cycling) or take time off altogether. As the inflammation subsides, it may help to add stretching and strengthening exercises.
Sleep is essential for optimal performance! The recent Warrior Resilience Conference V hosted by the Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury included a session called "Scheduling Sleep – A Clear Mind, A Combat Edge," which highlighted how sleep is critically important to:
- Memory
- Creativity
- Decision-making
- Moral judgment
- Health
All of these have a serious impact on performance—not only for Warfighters, but for everyone. Lack of sleep is also linked to increased risk of motor vehicle accidents, depression, substance abuse, weight gain, heart and kidney disease, reduced immune response, and loss of focus. Make it a goal to get seven to eight hours of sleep a night, and reap the performance and health benefits.
Check out HPRC's Sleep Optimization section for more information.
There may be times in your life when you feel isolated or all alone. Connecting with people can help you find meaning in life, feel better, improve your mood, and beat boredom. Afterdeployment.org has a tip sheet—"Beating Isolation"—with ideas for how to overcome loneliness that include making plans to hang out with someone, reaching out to people you know, and getting involved in your community.
The "relaxation response" is your body's counterpart to the stress response you feel during critical situations. As the name suggests, the relaxation response has a calming effect on your mental and physical state, with benefits that include less anxiety, a more positive mood, a sense of calmness and well-being, and reduced heart rate, breathing and metabolic rates, blood pressure, and muscle tension.
Sound good? You can learn how to use your body's relaxation response for health and well-being. Various mind-body techniques such as deep-breathing exercises, guided imagery, meditation, progressive muscle relaxation, yoga, tai-chi, and qigong all train you to turn this response on. Practicing these mind-body techniques has been found to help with anxiety and depression, as well as physical conditions such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and types of cancer that are exacerbated by stress.
To learn more about mind-body techniques, check out HPRC's Mind-Body Skills section.
In relationships, "capitalization" refers to the process of sharing good news with one another. It's easy to sympathize with buddies when times are tough, but studies have shown that responding to good news with support and enthusiasm helps build stronger relationships between individuals. So remember to receive good news from coworkers, friends, and family with enthusiasm. It can not only strengthen your relationships but also create a positive environment.
For more information on building strong relationships, check out the Family & Relationships domain.
A 2011 study of musculoskeletal injuries in an Infantry Brigade Combat Team deployed to Afghanistan found that low back pain due to stress and strain on the back (not actual spinal cord injuries) was the most common complaint. Common causes of back injury include overuse, poor physical conditioning, and incorrect body movements when lifting and moving objects. Fortunately you can decrease your chances of injuring the muscles and ligaments of your back. The key is prevention: Stretching is one way to help prevent lower back pain, but it's essential to use correct posture and body mechanics when you pick up and move objects such as heavy ammo cans! Daily back exercises (from the Mayo Clinic) and stretches can help strengthen your core and improve your posture, and the University of Maryland offers more valuable tips for prevention. If you're experiencing back pain, however, you need to see a qualified healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and exercise program.
Staying in the physical condition you need for demanding duties and missions means that you are at risk for specific types of injuries, and rotator cuff injuries are common among service members. The rotator cuff is actually a group of muscles key to shoulder movement, including the ability to perform overhead activities. For those who are preparing for the CFT, this includes performing the Ammo Lift.
Warning signs of a shoulder injury can include not only pain and abnormal sounds during shoulder movement but also a decrease in strength and mobility/motion. What can you do about it? First, check with your healthcare provider to make sure that your injury does not require medical treatment. Then:
- Rest your injured shoulder! It is important to allow adequate time for healing.
- Use the RICE and ISE methods.
- Strengthen the muscles that control shoulder movement.
- Make sure that you have adequate flexibility of the rotator cuff muscles.
Of course, it's always better to prevent injuries in the first place. To help reduce your risk of rotator cuff injury, it's important to develop the strength and flexibility of the related muscles. For specific information on rotator-cuff exercises and self-care, check out these suggestions from MedLine Plus (a service of the National Institutes of Health) and this conditioning program from the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.
Many of us have the habit of focusing on the negative stuff in life and expecting the worst outcome. This tendency can be compounded by military training that teaches you how to assess risks and plan for the worst outcome. If this way of thinking crosses over to your personal life, you're shortchanging yourself. What are you taking for granted? Look around—recognize and appreciate the little things in your day. Focus on appreciation and gratitude. Try breaking your habit of fixating on the negative for just one day—instead, spend it acknowledging and appreciating the ordinary good things in your life.
- When you wake up in the morning, stop and take a moment to think about something good that you'd like to happen in your day.
- If you're in a relationship, take a few minutes to really appreciate your significant other.
- If you're deployed, reflect on how your buddies support one another when times get tough.
- Before eating lunch, take a moment to be grateful for something that keeps you going each day—maybe it's as simple as the first cup of coffee in the morning, an easy commute, or your buddy's positive attitude.
- At dinner, spend a moment thinking about your loved ones. Have you told them lately something you appreciate about them?
- Finally, before you go to sleep, acknowledge something about yourself you're proud of.
Start again tomorrow, reflecting back to today—did acknowledging the magic of the "everyday" help you have a better day?

UK Property Law
Get UK Property Law Questions Answered by Experts
I'm sorry to be solong getting back to you, for some reason I didn't get my colleagues email.
Can you pleaseconfirm that this is on a part of the property over which you and all the otherowners have access.
That is I assumethat each owner can only park either in the designated space or on their ownproperty, and that they have no right in particular to park on this area, anymore than you or anyone else does.
Please bear with metoday because I am online and off-line all day with clients.
Thank you. Assumingall the leases are the same (You can get his lease from Land Registry for about£20 to be sure) https://eservices.landregistry.gov.uk/www/wps/portal/!ut/p/b1/04_SjzS0tDQwMTIxMjLXj9CPykssy0xPLMnMz0vMAfGjzOKNjSxMDA1NjDwsjM3MDTxN3dyNDUNMjQ1MjPWDU_P0c6McFQH3SLFU/
I suggest that youcheck your lease if it is likely that they are all the same, as it will saveyou £20.
Then there willusually be a covenant not to cause nuisance or obstruct the common parts. Evenif there isn't an actual covenant it is a common law requirement in any event.
My suggestion wouldbe to get a solicitor to write to the offender (a solicitors letter will carrymore weight) threatening an application to court for an injunction to compelthem to stop parking there and an application for court costs.
At the same time, Iwould write to the freeholder and the management company threatening a similaraction against them for allowing this to happen and for allowing the neighbourto breach the covenant for quiet enjoyment. Quiet enjoyment does not literallymean "quiet" but means simply without interference.
Faced with anapplication to court, hopefully the obstructive neighbour will stop and, facedwith an application for court, the freeholder and the management company arelikely also pursue the obstructive neighbour because I am certain that thefreeholder will not want to be taken to court simply because one neighbour isparking where they are not supposed to.

Mary Isabel Catherine Bernadette OBrien, 16 April 1939, Hampstead, London, England, d. 2 March 1999, Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, England. A long-standing critical favourite but sadly neglected by the mass public from the early 70s until the end of the 80s, the career of the greatest white soul/pop singer the UK has ever produced was a turbulent one. Formerly referred to as the White Negress, Springfield began as a member of the cloying pop trio the Lana Sisters in the 50s, and moved with her brother Tom (Dion OBrien, b. 2 July 1934, Hampstead, London, England), and Tim Field into the Springfields, one of Britains top pop/folk acts of the early 60s. During the Merseybeat boom, she took a bold step by going solo. Her debut in late 1963 with I Only Want To Be With You (the first ever song performed on the long-running UK television programme Top Of The Pops) removed any doubts the previously shy convent girl may have had;...

text: "If an investor is purely seeking income, we are not the right fund," says Kolitch. "Our principal objective is capital appreciation." Kolitch argues that the outlook for real estate stocks remains bright. He is particularly keen on residential markets. Housing construction fell from 2.2 million units in 2006 to 478,000 in 2009. Recently the annual pace has rebounded to 760,000. Kolitch says that construction will continue climbing because 1.2 million households are formed annually. "We are in the early stages of what will be a multiyear recovery of the residential housing market," he says. "Cycles typically last six or seven years." Homebuilders were among the first stocks to jump when construction activity began reviving. In the past year, stocks of leading builders such as Lennar ( LEN) and Toll Brothers ( TOL) more than doubled. Kolitch owned some of the homebuilders, but recently sold them because he figured that they had become too rich. Instead he owns companies that provide equipment and supplies for homebuilding. A holding is Owens Corning ( OC), a maker of insulation and roofing supplies. The stock has jumped about 30% in the past year, but Kolitch says that the shares will continue running as the housing recovery unfolds. Why have suppliers like Owens Corning lagged behind homebuilders? Kolitch says that homebuilders are a pure play on new construction, so they rally hardest when the cycle turns. Suppliers like Owens Corning get some of their sales from remodeling, which doesn't depend on new home construction. Another supplier he likes is Stanley Black & Decker ( SWK), the maker of power tools. He figures that the shares trade for 10 time next year's earnings, a modest price for a dominant supplier. Kolitch has about 20% of the fund in companies that operate senior living projects, such as assisted living facilities and nursing homes. Holdings include Capital Senior Living ( CSU) and Brookdale Senior Living ( BKD). The senior companies will get a big boost from revived home sales, Kolitch says. In order to afford assisted living, he points out, many residents must first sell their homes. That has been hard to do in recent years. But now that residential markets are reviving, there will be stronger demand for senior facilities. This article is commentary by an independent contributor, separate from TheStreet's regular news coverage.

Proneza Schouler went print crazy for its fall 2011 presentation during the second to last day of New York Fashion Week. Ranging from tribal to art-deco inspired prints, Proenza designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez reigned in the graphic over saturation with a subtle color palette of blue, green and orange hues.
The Color Palette is divinely cohesive and absolutely stunning, the prints are breath-taking! Ahh 🙂
Love Lux*
The air of elegence is lifted to a refreshing level through the use of contrasting colours, textures and lengths, providing an excellent base to build a full and inspiring autumn look.

Another HealthSouth Former CFO Pleads GuiltyFeb 26, 2003 | USA TODAY
Federal prosecutors investigating financial fraud at HealthSouth scored another coup Thursday when Aaron Beam, a co-founder and close associate of former CEO Richard Scrushy, agreed to plead guilty to one count of bank fraud.
Beam, one of HealthSouth's original investors, served as chief financial officer from 1984 until 1997. He resigned that year after a falling out with Scrushy.
He is the 11th former HealthSouth official to enter a guilty plea and cooperate with the government's investigation at the rehabilitation hospital chain. His plea also means that each of the five men who served as CFO under Scrushy have admitted to fraud.
''Mr. Beam's cooperation allows us greater understanding of the accounting fraud scheme at HealthSouth and those persons who participated,'' said Alice Martin, the U.S. attorney in Birmingham, Ala.
According to the charges filed against him, in 1996 Beam and Scrushy allegedly provided false earnings information to a syndicate led by AmSouth Bank to secure a $1.25 billion credit line and a $55 million loan.
On March 19, the Securities and Exchange Commission charged Scrushy with inside trading and accused him of orchestrating a scheme to overstate HealthSouth's earnings by $1.4 billion since 1999. Former executives have since admitted that the total fraud was at least $2.5 billion.
Scrushy's assets were frozen, and HealthSouth subsequently fired him. For two weeks, he has been in a Birmingham courtroom seeking access to at least $40 million from his fortune to pay for legal costs and living expenses.
Neal Webster, a former employee, testified Thursday that Scrushy fired him in 1989 after questioning an accounting irregularity. According to Webster, Scrushy said, ''You don't understand big business. We're under pressure to make certain numbers.''
No criminal charges have been filed against Scrushy, but his attorneys expect him to be charged. Scrushy attorney Thomas Sjoblom said Webster ''made it all up.''

Do you want the sweet smell of honey to warm your home? I will make you a pure honey beeswax candle and ship it your way! It can be square, rectangular, maybe in a mason jar, or even carved into a weird shape.
It takes at least four days to prepare with all the ingredients at hand. I'll need a few more days if you want it carved.
Training & Qualifications
My mother is prolific in essential oils and crafting. She taught me how to craft these candles and I have been making them for friends ever since.
Availability & Preferences
I am usually free Friday through Monday on central time.

text: I'm hoping I can get more input on these, I'm not getting much. So, I've talked about character additions, assist trophies and items, stages, and custom stages. This time, I want to talk about custom moves. Custom moves were a fine addition to the game, but it isn't without its problems. For one, you can't play custom fighters without equipment. Using equipment alters stats, and some people (such as myself) would prefer to play custom characters (such as Palutena) without them. Miis are the only ones that can do such, or you could just have a custom character without equipment, but that could be annoying or just no fun. Clones are another problem. There's Dr. Mario, Dark Pit, and Lucina. While having clones is kind of okay with me, I'm disappointed that they're still clones in the custom moves department, and that there were no different custom moves to allow them to stand out a bit more. I'm not going to rant much though, as I should probably talk about some positives. For starters, Mario's fireball can be made faster, and his FLUDD can now do damage by using custom moves. Luigi can shoot ice balls (although I'm not sure how worthy that is), which was probably based on the Ice balls from NSMB Wii. Peach can use Toad as a standard weapon instead of a counter. Bowser can shoot his fireballs. It goes on. One that I want to talk about in particular though, is Samus. Her standard special, the charge shot, is great as it is. The custom moves with this are a more powerful shot or a melee shot. The melee shot I do like, but the more powerful one doesn't seem worth it because of its double negative: slower and less range. Some custom moves I feel could replace these would be her other beams from Super Metroid/Metroid Prime. There's the Wave Beam, the Ice Beam, and the Plasma Beam, along with the Spazer should anyone care. The Wave Beam could use the jagged motion and stun opponents, the Ice Beam could freeze opponents, as if that wasn't obvious, and the Plasma Beam could be more powerful and be a piercing shot, but with lesser range or longer charge. As for Missiles, the Ice Spreader combo would be cool. For the down special, they could've done the Power Bomb. It's even in Smash Run. They did add a big bomb though, but I don't think it's too worth it. As for the final smash, people complain the the Zero Laser is odd as it doesn't appear in a Metroid game, sort of like Luigi's Negative Zone or various other final smashes. As a response to that, perhaps a "more preferred" final smash could be Wave Buster or Flame Thrower combo, or perhaps the Hyper Beam from Super Metroid. Now, lets get to Kirby. I like the Ice Breath, but I feel it should have more range and it's freeze potential should be higher. The hammers could use a bit of work too. One could be Melee's hammer, where you'd spin in midair instead of the horizontal swings. The Giant Hammer, although unwieldy, probably came from Squeak Squad. As for Stone, the Meteor Stone sounds cool, but it's not actually worth having in my opinion. Meteor smashes are good for knocking people into pits, and given your high velocity, Meteor Stone could be suicidal. Something like Mega Stone would be nice. Meta Knight: I'm very glad they added a Galacta Knight and Dark Meta Knight palette to Smash. I use the Galacta Knight color very often. Good to know the update buffed him, as I think they may have nerfed him too much between games. It would've been nice to see his moveset change a bit, as it seems to be exactly the same as Brawl, aside from the Glide removal and the finisher move after standard combos. His custom moves allow for more shield damage, which is cool, but it seems nobody really shield my attacks as often as I'd hope for this scenario. I also can't hit people with the Lazy Shuttle Loop, but it's supposed to be more powerful. I do like the fast drill though. His final smash though. I'd personally like him to utilize the ground twister move. There's more I could talk about, but that'd be too much for now. Tell me what you guys think about custom moves, which ones you like, which ones you don't, any custom move ideas you may have in mind.

Who says a house has to remain in the same place all the time? The Danish art collective N55, together with engineers from the MIT have designed a house that can simply walk away if you fancy a better spot (say, if a flood is coming or you simply don't like your neighbours anymore). It has all the basic necessities for living on board – a living room, kitchen, toilet, bed and a wood stove.

"The BRW-10, with its 10-inch woofer and 150 watt amplifier, produced bass that was quick and clean, and never painful."

ABB (ABB) is looking to offload a number of non-core assets in deals that could be worth over $1B, Reuters reports.
The businesses that are on the block include the steel-structures operations of Thomas & Betts, the U.S. electrical-components firm that ABB acquired two years ago for $3.9B.
ABB is also looking to sell Thomas & Betts' heating and air conditioning unit, a separate industrial services business, and the power solutions unit of Power-One, the U.S. solar-energy firm that ABB purchased last year for around $1B.
The report comes as fellow industrial conglomerates such as Siemens also prune their operations.

This is the reality you don't see in the Rivals rankings, the prerequisite to 21 Division IA offers: Long before Isaiah Prince chooses a hat, he'll backpedal up this hill again and again.
It's hot and it's humid in Greenbelt, though it's barely 10 am, and Prince and the Eleanor Roosevelt Raiders are stumbling up the steep slope next to the school. Some look heavier than Prince, a little more muscle-bound maybe, and a few might be faster — defensive backs, inevitably — but none of them stands taller than Prince. He sticks out without trying, but he's trying anyway.
Such is life for Prince, the 6-foot-6 rising senior who's one of the best tackles in the country if you trust the recruit rankings, which have him as the sixth best player at his position in the class of 2015. If you don't trust the guys at Rivals, just look at his offers — Maryland, Ohio State, Alabama, Florida, Michigan, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Nebraska, etc — and you'll come to the same conclusion.
When he was younger, Prince didn't know it could be like this. Tall but skinny, he was still playing basketball and football as a sophomore when football coach Tom Green told him what football might be able to deliver. "Get up to around 270 pounds and stay there," Green told him, "and football could get you somewhere."
"I was losing too much weight playing basketball, I wasn't lifting too much, and he told me it wasn't going to go so well if I lost a lot of weight," Prince remembered. So he stopped playing basketball and started lifting.
Prince bulked up to 265 pounds, and on the first day coaches could call, he found himself with offers from Maryland, Penn State, Virginia and others. By the time he was a junior, all the college coaches knew Prince. He was ready for a big junior season, poised to validate all the attention thanks to another year of strength and stamina and understanding.
Then, in the Raiders' first game of the season, someone fell on Prince's ankle. It snapped, and Prince needed surgery that knocked him out of seven games.
"I cried every game," Prince remembered. "I just wanted to play."
But as injuries go, a clean ankle break isn't the worst a lineman can suffer. And it didn't hurt his recruiting, either: A day after he got out of surgery, Tennessee extended an offer.
By season's end he was back, and though Prince — who plays on the offensive and defensive lines for the Raiders — wanted in on every snap, Green worked him back in slowly.
Caution couldn't hurt for the Raiders (6-4), who were in the midst of an uncharacteristically tough season. Prince's wasn't the only injury, as running back Mike Mofor missed four games, too. Roosevelt was banged up and unlucky: three of the team's four 2013 losses came by eight points or fewer.
"It was disappointing," quarterback Teke Carlson said. "We had much higher expectations."
But this season, Carlson, Mofor, Prince and the rest of a loaded senior class are back, fueled through workouts by the idea of avenging last year's disappointments by reclaiming the Raiders' more familiar spot in the Prince George's County top four.
Prince, who will make unofficial visits to Alabama, Auburn, and Florida next week, says he's narrowed his list to six: those three schools and Maryland, Tennessee and Ohio State.
"It's tough to narrow the list, it's a lot of great schools, but at the same time, you know what kind of environment you want to be in," Prince said. "My sophomore year, I didn't expect this. I thought Maryland was going to be my only offer, and then I had five. It was unreal, I don't know how."
With unofficial visits and official visits still to come, Prince's decision isn't imminent. For now, he'll focus on anchoring a Roosevelt line that should be one of the most formidable in Prince George's County 4A, especially with players like seniors Deondre Whyte and Emmanuel Eto'o — both 6-2 seniors with experience — coming back, too. So the bumps and bruises of 2013 may not prove to be such a bad thing, after all.
"We definitely use (last season)," Prince said, before sinking into a tired post-practice squat. "It's fuel."

Viva Pinata
Review by OutOfRange
"Yes It's Pretty, But That Exterior Hides A Lot Of Problems"
I have to say when I first saw and heard about this game, it looked a lot like Katamari to me. And while the graphics do have a similar style, the gameplay couldn't be more different. However, that doesn't mean it's good, as despite how good it looks, there are a lot of problems hidden underneath that pretty exterior.
Storyline (7/10)
As the game progresses, you're not really told that much about the storyline, save for some ramblings by the token old sage character. The journal does get updated with information, which you can read if you want to, but that's the problem; if you want to. You're not given information at a steady pace, you're given none and then loads in one lump that doesn't make for very interesting reading.
The focus, however, is that you play the role of a gardener who has come to be in charge of a garden that really needs a makeover. You improve the garden in various ways and this attracts wild pinata, which may take up residence in your garden if it's good enough. The pinata live in a world hoping for the day when they will be chosen to bring joy to somebody's party.
Gameplay (5/10)
I will start off by saying this game has a lot of flaws, of varying degrees. My main complaint is the noticeable amounts of doing absolutely nothing, by which I mean there is nothing more you can do and you're just waiting around the something to happen in your garden. This then contrasts to the explosions of events you get all in one go, and by that I'm not referring to real time events in your garden, I mean the cut scenes where a character comes along, poses and then interrupts you further by giving you text when you finally get back to the game screen. Every now and again this wouldn't be a problem, but especially in the early stages you can get quite a few of these in a row, and quite often it'll be the old guy coming along two or three times. It really interrupts your playing of the game to the point it can put you off playing.
The next point I want to make is a lack of goals; while you are given something to aim towards, you are given basically no indication of what is required of you. For the most part it just involves trying to get enough things to happen in your garden to net you the experience to raise your level. While I do like freedom to do what I want in games, having no idea what I'm supposed to be doing is infinitely more frustrating than being lead in a straight line. The other part of not know what to do is when trying to attract pinata to actually come into the garden once they've appeared. The game will say it's because of one thing you've done, but for the most part they refuse to actually cross the border into your garden until you've done something totally unrelated.
The pinata themselves while varied, only some of them are actually worth having, and a lot of them just look like cannon fodder for the more interesting ones, such as flies only really being there to attract frogs. The whole romancing part, while good in theory, becomes extremely dull after a few times of doing it, and the mini games aren't enough of a distraction to take the focus from how boring it is. Also, you can have everything perfect, but it's random as to whether the pinata will do anything. Tell them to eat a flower, they say no, try again they say no, try again, this time they say yes. Attract a pinata into your garden, have everything they need to become a resident, they walk around a bit then walk off. This whole process is extremely annoying when there's seemingly no reason for it.
The garden itself is also really badly done; you can barely zoom out, meaning you can only see a tiny portion of the garden at any one time. This has several knock on effects; when a sour pinata comes in to reek havoc, it's really hard to find out where they are. The same is true when trying to plan out your garden, or simply when trying to find one of your residents. The game really could have benefited from having a top down overview.
The messages you get are almost pointless, such as being told that you've attracted a <something> to your garden because of one thing you've done, but we're not going to tell you what you need to do to actually get them across the border. My other favourite is; a pinata is about to be eaten, as this actually means, a pinata has already been eaten, as it comes way too late, and takes far too long to actually show you where the problem is, this is an even bigger problem when the land size increases.
My last point is; is this game really aimed at kids? If so, what is with the innuendo? I can appreciate it's probably there to allow some adults to enjoy it, but it's really not necessary, and if you're playing it with other people in the room, it's cringeworthy at times.
Overall, I find the game to be a really frustrating experience, while you have things to do it's fine, but that dries up really quickly, and you reach a point where you're not allowed to put more things in your garden without removing some of the already existing junk. The same is true for the amount of pinatas; you can only have a certain amount. When your land size eventually increases, it's great, but it also means you have the extremely dull and repetitive task of whacking all the soil and admiring how out of place all your houses look now they're in the centre of your land as opposed to the edges where they used to live.
Graphics (8/10)
The graphics are absolutely fine, the pinatas look great, although some of them look a lot better in black and white than they do in colour. It's a very stylised game, and the visuals are bright and effective, although at times they're too bright and heavily contrasted, most evidently at the shops. It has to be said that the graphics seem to try to distract players from some of the more subtle problems.
Sounds (6/10)
Another problem with the game, while most the background music is fine and the sound effects of the pinatas are bearable, the voice acting is horrendous. Most noticeably Leafos; probably since she constantly interrupts your playing to give you useless advice. It's like they've tried to make them sound approachable like they're supposed to sound like your best friend, but they're just so annoying. To the extent that I was forced into turning them off. The villagers only make matters worse.
Summary (7/10)
Most common situation with this game; you have all the resources required to make a pinata a resident; but they don't. It happens far too frequently and ultimately ruins the experience, since it's very easy to get fed up with it. The first time you play it you're in for a frantic start trying to learn awkward controls, and constantly getting interrupted then suddenly you realise you've had no cut scenes for ages and you don't have any targets other than level up. There's a noticeable different where you have too much information and then a large portion where you're given very little information of any use. Overall, there are a lot of flaws with the game, however, the game is quite unique and has a certain charm to it. There is fun to be had, but you need to do a lot of work to get much of a reward from it.

Subscribers of the new Call of Duty ELITE service will get to watch a Call of Duty video series
"We have engaged some top Hollywood talent to create linear video content that will be exclusive to Elite members. That content is inspired by Call of Duty" Activision publishing boss Eric Hirshberg said.
"If you're a sports fan, there are lots of ways for you to connect with that hobby, that passion, not just on the day that the games are played, but throughout the week, and we wanted to give Call of Duty players real entertainment value."
It's un-clear whether the series will be animated or live-action, though the mention of "Hollywood talent" surely suggests the latter.
When questioned on the specifics of the offering, Hirshberg said: "We're not going to give much more detail until we have something to show. That'll be later in the year."
So do you think this is good? Could it sway you to subscribe to Call of Duty: ELITE? Let us know in the comments!

Communication with the owner was great! Quick response time. Condo is just as described and worked out perfectly for a hockey tournament weekend. Highly recommend for a weekend getaway or week long vacation.
We had a wonderful time while staying in this condo during February school vacation. The place is cheerfully bright, spacious, clean, well furnished and maintained. The layout is excellent for cooking, playing, watching television, relaxing, and catching up on your sleep. The lodge is very nice, too, with a beautiful foyer, cozy fireplaces, and the best tasting hot chocolate ever. We also enjoyed the spa area, which is awesome after a day on the slopes. We wish to thank the owner who was very friendly and responsive. Simply put, the experience could not be any better and we are definitely coming back. Again, many thanks!
Excellent communication with the owner, nice resort condo with great views. Very clean comfortable queen bed. My wife and I enjoyed a 3 day weekend for our 2nd anniversary in Waterville Valley. Spent some time in the pool and hot tubs at the condo complex. The Fall foliage was excellent with plenty of mountains to climb and trails to hike. We enjoyed an anniversary dinner at the Gypsy Cafe in Lincoln about a 1/2 hour away, Great value rental in Waterville Valley!
We stayed in the Golden Eagle Lodge for a weekend (8/23 – 8/25) and we are very pleased with the place.
This unit is very clean, bright, and has a nice open layout. This is a one bed room unit, yet it can sleep 6 comfortable. In addition, the open concept living room has a lot light and kitchen is open to the living area which makes it feels larger. The other plus is that there is extra sink outside the bath room which comes in handy when more than one people want to brush teeth in the morning or make up,….
During the stay, one has access to the indoor and outdoor swimming pools. There are Jacuzzi, Souna, and steam rooms as well. The weight room is located next to the locker room to make it easy to access.
There are many hiking places nearby. We went to the Greenly Pond which is about 30 minutes drive and the trial is "easy and beautiful". We enjoy the walk a lot.
I will definite recommend to friends and families for this unit.
My family and I have been to Waterville Valley before but wanted to stay at a different lodge this year. We are so glad we chose this particular condo at the Golden Eagle Lodge! The unit is furnished conveniently and sparks a cozy atmosphere. My kids were excited to see bunk beds. There is also a second vanity outside of the bathroom so two people can get ready at once (if you have a teenaged daughter, you know how valuable this is). All of the furniture is sturdy and comfortable. The main living space is in an open floor plan, so you can cook and still be part of the conversation with the rest of the room. We have a view of the surrounding mountains from every window, which was definitely a pleasant surprise. In general, everything was clean and in good shape. The cleaning staff is always available and prompt. There is a shuttle bus that arrives about every 15-20 minutes that goes to the ski slopes; otherwise it is barely a 10 minute drive up there. Besides skiing, there are plenty of other activities your family can enjoy, including (but not limited to) snow tubing, dog sledding, visiting the Curious George Cottage, relaxing at the pool, playing games at the arcade, taking a stroll at the Town Square which is right behind the lodge... the list goes on! Many of the lodges here provide daily activities for the entire community as well (rock climbing, ice cream socials, etc). Tonight we ate at the Coyote Grill which we strongly recommend because the food is absolutely to die for (make sure to make reservations in advance because it fills up fast after 6pm). As for the owner, he was very helpful in answering all of our questions and concerns -- all of his responses were quick and precise. We would definitely recommend this unit to anybody and are planning on coming back again! In fact, we have extended our current stay because we have been enjoying ourselves so much.

FLORENCE, Ala. (BNC) — The Fall, 2016, semester at Heritage Christian University will carry the theme "Be Transformed," based on Romans 12:2, according to a Heritage News email sent Aug. 22. Continue reading "Heritage Christian chooses semester theme: 'Be transformed'"
'Sermon Tree' digital magazine innovates for preachers
MCCRORY, Ark. (BNc) — Working ministers must craft approximately 104 sermons, 52 Bible classes, and often 52 Wednesday night devotionals, all while tending to personal Bible studies, home and hospital visits, funerals, weddings, and other happenings that crop up. It can be a challenge at times to keep sermons fresh.
One minister and publisher has designed a subscription-only digital publication called SermonTree.com to help preachers stay energized. The magazine offers a monthly downloadable, printable digest of sermon outlines, sermon seeds, illustrations, humor, and short devotional talks to inspire study and preaching for an entire month.
"In the best case scenario, preachers have a few sermons prepared well ahead of time in case of emergency, but the best case scenario often doesn't match up with reality," said SermonTree.com publisher Matt Clifton, who also publishes the Bulletin Digest. "And sometimes our preaching just gets a little stale, and we need some outside perspective on preaching and teaching to invigorate our own studies."
That's where SermonTree.com comes in. The digital magazine features 10 to 12 sermon outlines each month, varying in detail.
Preachers can take these outlines and develop their own lessons, use them as-is, or simply use them as a jumping-off point for personal studies and Bible classes. Most of the outlines contain appropriate illustrations, and each sermon also has a list of song suggestions to go with the lesson. The outlines are also offered in an "organic outline" format for ease of reading and adaptation to the preacher's own use.
"Plus, if you find yourself having to get a devotional talk together at the last minute, SermonTree.com also has "sermon seeds," which are very brief outlines from which to develop your own lessons, and short devotional talks that would be appropriate for Wednesday night use," Clifton said.
Those interested in seeing this concept in action can visit SermonTree.com and download a free sample issue.
With various sermon outlines available from a variety of sources on the internet, one might wonder why a subscription service like SermonTree.com is needed.
"Most of the outlines you find on the internet are the same ones you've been using for years," Clifton commented. "SermonTree.com offers fresh material each month. And it's not just outlines. We offer a complete toolbox for the working preacher to help craft powerful Biblical sermons, all from writers with a biblical understanding of the church and salvation."
SermonTree.com also has feature stories on evangelism techniques, topics of interest for preachers, book reviews, and more.
An innovative approach to its sermon outlines is the use of an organic style in organization, rather than the usual numerical-alphabetical outline.
Who writes the material in SermonTree.com? Clifton, who preaches for the church of Christ at McCrory, Ark., develops most of the sermons in the magazine, but also accepts and publishes sermon outlines and articles from other preachers.
"We've had several great sermons and articles contributed by other brethren, and we'd like to have more sermon outlines and stories on successful evangelism techniques submitted to us for publication in the future," he said. "The goal for SermonTree.com is to have a publication that prints the very best original sermon outlines of preachers of the church of Christ."
If you are a preacher and would like to submit an article or sermon outline for publication, please contact SermonTree.com by using the form on the "About" page at the website.
Missionary takes a licking two days in a row, on third day he licks
JOÃO PESSOA, Brazil (BNc) by Jeremy Newlin — There are days that will stand out in your mind for weeks, some, for months or even years. Other stories may live on through your children and grandchildren, and still other stories may die with you. I don't know which category this story will fall into but I do hope you enjoy it. Don't feel bad if you laugh. I did.
A couple of weeks after arriving back in Brazil, I took our car to the mechanic. It was a rainy day; we had a hard rain early on and then it began to taper off. I was at the mechanic, and I went walking to buy a part for the car.
There is no sidewalk. I was walking along the side of the road, just off to the edge to stay out of the way of the cars. Because of all the rain there were some puddles of water in my path. I came upon one puddle that I did not want to step in so I stepped into the road where there was a wet board leaning up against the curb (a curb with no sidewalk, mind you). I slipped on the wet board. Continue reading "Missionary takes a licking two days in a row, on third day he licks"
Elba Church Feeds the Hungry
by Glenda Williams, BNc correspondent
ELBA, Ala (BNc) — For years, the church in Elba, Alabama had a small pantry housed in a closet, but they were never able to feed the hungry as they do now.
Recently the church built a family-life annex complete with a spacious kitchen and dining area, classrooms, restrooms, and a large pantry. Located right behind the church building, the annex is convenient to the offices of the church's minister and secretary. Although the new construction allowed them to continue dispensing food from the pantry to the hungry who came seeking, it didn't take long for the church members to see the need to step up their efforts in feeding the hungry.

Five baptized at county jail
by Glenda Williams, BNc correspondent
GENEVA, Alabama (BNc) — "Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you can come back up," is a statement made about people on the wrong pathway in life. That statement often explains the position of those confined in the local county jail.
On Thursday evenings a group of men from the church in Geneva goes into the jail for Bible study with the inmates. As a result of those Bible studies, five men were baptized Thursday morning, October 7. Continue reading "Five baptized at county jail"
New Cookie Ministry is hit
by Glenda Williams, BNc correspondent
GENEVA, Alabama (BNc) — This author began a cookie ministry last week. Let me explain.
"Old-Timey Tea Cakes" was the recipe that caught my attention and I made a batch. With four cups of flour, one and three-fourths cups of sugar, two sticks of butter and a few more ingredients, in a little over an hour I had 96 tea cakes that didn't need to stay in our house. I decided out the door they would go as we visited different people on our Tuesday day of visiting.
My friend suggested a dozen would be a nice number of cookies to give each family.
The packaging was simple. I recycled my small gift bags with the colorful tissue paper. The cookies were placed in a new zip-lock bag and dropped gently into the bags. They were well received. Continue reading "New Cookie Ministry is hit"
Donnie Vick works with Purcellville church
by Laura S. Tinnel
PURCELLVILLE, Va. (BNc) — Jan. 24 was a momentous day of firsts in northern Virginia. That Sunday morning Donnie Vick stepped into the pulpit in Purcellville to begin his first full-time ministry as a preacher in the Lord's church. That same day, the 11-year-old local congregation heard a sermon from its first full-time preacher.
When Vick and his wife Stephanie arrived at their new home just two days prior, they were greeted by excited adults and teens of the congregation who assisted in moving their belongings. They presented the Vicks with a pantry stocked with dry goods and gift cards to get them started in their new home. Continue reading "Donnie Vick works with Purcellville church"
Partner with BNc
Peter's charge has always been a favorite of mine: "Love the brotherhood" (1 Peter 2:17b). The word brotherhood is a collective term, denoting the whole. We are brothers and sisters in Christ, individually. Together, we are brotherhood.
Hence, the only two times the word is used, both by Peter, it is upheld by fraternal and sacrificial love and solidarity with like-minded believers in suffering for the kingdom, firm in faith, resisting every effort of the devil to pull us away from our commitment to Christ (1 Peter 5:9). It bespeaks an awareness of and appreciation for a suffering, engaged and dedicated brotherhood.
To further that awareness and to cultivate that solidarity, BNc was born. And as a part of that mission, we invite you to partner with BNc. Continue reading "Partner with BNc"

Captain Sudan is a character seen in the film serial Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe (1940).
As Commander of the Palace Guards, Captain Sudan is one of Ming's highest-ranking and most trusted soldiers. That trust is ill-placed, for unbeknown to Ming, Sudan's main loyalty is to Prince Barin. As such, Sudan plays a vital role in Flash Gordon and Prince Barin's fight to topple Ming from power. Sudan is able to give Flash and his friends access to Ming's palace at crucial times. It is never explained how the friendship between Barin and Sudan was forged. Nor is it explained how Sonja, a spy in Barin's camp, remains unaware that Sudan is a traitor to Ming.
Despite the fact that Sudan sometimes questions his orders, is slow to carry out commands and would appear to be an obvious common link between the miraculous safe passage of his enemies into and out of his palace, Ming never seems to suspect Sudan's treachery. This proves to be a fatal oversight as ultimately it is Captain Sudan who locks Ming and his coterie in the palace tower so that they are trapped in there when Flash Gordon aims the Z-O rocket ship at it.
Captain Sudan was played by the actor William Royle.
