Ever since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare smashed sales records in 2007, the release of the latest Call of Duty has become an annual event. Come November every year, a new game in the series will smash the sales records set by its predecessor the previous year.
With such a lucrative business model, Call of Duty publisher Activision may be seen as taking a big risk with 2014's entry, Advanced Warfare, a debut title from a new studio.
Sledgehammer Games was founded by Michael Condrey and Glen Schofield, the two main brains behind the science fiction horror epic Dead Space. After that title, they walked away to form their own studio, and immediately began assisting Infinity Ward with Modern Warfare 3.
"Originally we were going to do our own Call of Duty," recalls Condrey. "We had always intended to be a lead studio, but this opportunity with Modern Warfare 3 came up."
He explains that when Activision invites you to participate in the biggest game franchise in the world, you drop what you're doing and take the opportunity.
"I was proud of what we accomplished there, and that gave us the opportunity to be the new lead studio. So this is our attempt to really put the Sledgehammer mark on the franchise."
After almost a dozen Call of Duty games, one of the first challenges Sledgehammer faced was simply coming up with something new.
"It's a unique challenge, because it's so popular and because it does so many things so well," Condrey says. "You can't alienate what makes fans love about it, but you have to innovate, bring in new ways to play, and surprise and delight fans in new ways every year.
"That's the balance we've been focused on for the past three years. There's been a real passion in our team to innovate and make Advanced Warfare feel like a new era."
Advanced Warfare takes players into the near future, only a few decades away, where real technology that is in prototype form today has come into common usage.
Soldiers stride across the battlefield in powered exoskeletons, automated drones buzz overhead, head-mounted displays reveal enemy locations, and smart grenades home in on their targets.
"There was a design philosophy that we came to pretty early, which was that the way to make a fictionalised near-future conflict feel grounded and relatable means you have to use technology that people will believe," Condrey says.
We decided that if we wanted to put something in the game, we had to be able to point to the research it's based on being available today.Michael Condrey, Sledgehammer Games
"A lot of the time, a few years into the future quickly becomes science fiction, and we wanted the science. We decided that if we wanted to put something in the game, we had to be able to point to the research it's based on being available today.
"Many of the things you see working in the game are actually working today, and all of them are actively under R&D."
"We had a great opportunity early on to talk to Philip Ivey, who was the production designer on District 9.
"He created a science fiction movie that I completely related to. I mean it had aliens and spaceships and mega-slums and mechs and laser beam weapons, and it felt completely believable.
"He walked us through this process of introducing technology slowly and placing it in environments that were relatable. His guidance led us to introduce technology that's believable and we're setting it in surroundings that are completely familiar.
"So we have locations like the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, which is very iconic and will look in 50 years like it does today - they're not going to rebuild the Golden Gate."
Despite all the flashy hardware, however, Condrey believes that the narrative heart of the game is a very human one.
"In Call of Duty, it's always been a hero's journey, and a narrative about a greater good," he says. "We think back to those films about World War II, about it being a just war and a noble cause, a band of brothers fighting for the greater good of humanity. You want to preserve that.
"I also think that another thing that makes Call of Duty special is that it's very relatable to the audience, ripped from the headlines.
"Our game opens with the conflict between North and South Korea, and deals with the rise of private military corporations, like with Blackwater, and the challenges happening there, the advent of technologies like the exoskeleton, and the rapid development of technology like drones in military and private companies.
"We think this is a very provocative look at the future of war."
The story isn't what sells Call of Duty, though. Those massive sales numbers are driven by the online multiplayer experience, and this one will be no different.
"There's a lot already going on there which is really the best in its class, and we took that very seriously, but we also recognise that fans are asking for innovation and new ways to play," Condrey says.
"The exoskeleton has been the main vehicle for that, with a brand new movement set with boost jump and a lot of verticality and speed and strength, which gives us new perks and game modes and abilities. It was the genesis of all the transformations in our multiplayer."
Aussie fans who cannot wait until November can get an early taste of Advanced Warfare starting on Friday, with a preview version playable at the EB Expo in Sydney. Tickets are available at Oztix, any EB Games store or at the gate.

Disclaimer: I don't own Danny Phantom. The only characters I own in this story are the one's you don't recognize.
Chapter 1
THE infamous Danny Phantom flew up to the tallest building and look around the city one last time before heading back home. "Nothing." He sighed.
"What was that Danny?" His friend Sam Manson asked through his earphone.
"Oh sorry, I was talking to myself again." Danny said, still sounding lost in thought.
"I think he's finally snapped." Tucker said to Sam, but Danny still heard it.
"Hey!" Danny exclaimed.
Sam ignored they boys comments and said, "Why is everything so quite? There hasn't been a ghost attack all day!"
"I don't know," Tucker said. "Maybe they all decided to take a vacation." There was a pause after that.
"Oh you're right Tucker! I bet they all got in to their bathing suites and went to Hawaii!" Danny replied sarcastically.
"I definitely can't picture Skulker in a bathing suite." Sam said, wincing at the visual.
"Ewe." Tucker shuttered. Danny laughed. He looked out over the beautiful sunset and sighed. "I don't know about you guys, but it kind of feels like the calm before the storm, you know?"
"Yeah, I know what you mean. Speaking of storms, look to the North." Tucker said.
Danny turned and whistled. He saw a huge thunderhead heading towards their town. "Looks like this might be the kind of weather you like Sam…"
"Oh it is." Sam stated. "Have you seen the news? There is supposed to be thunderstorm warnings, flash flood warnings, tornado watches, even some tornado warnings all over the state!"
"What about Amity?" Danny asked, flying even higher, now thousands off feet up, looking out over the traffic.
"I've got it!" Tucker said and Danny could hear the familiar chirping of his PDA. After a moment he said, "Right now it's just Thunderstorm warnings and flash flood warnings. Not a tornado watch yet."
"That's good." Danny said, but before he was able to add on to that, his cell phone rang. He pulled his cell phone out from his impossible to find pocket and checked the caller ID. It was his dad's new cell phone. "Got to take this guys, it's my parents." Danny said and flipped open his cell. "Hello?"
"Danny-o! Where are you son?" His dad asked.
"Hey Danny! I see you! You're really high up… just a little dot." Tucker said. Danny ignored him, concentrating on his dad's voice.
Danny looked around, thousands of feet of the ground. "Uhh… at the Nasty Burger, just hanging with Sam and Tucker.
"Uh-- Danny?" Tucker said, but Danny blocked out his voice.
"Oh… well then what's that roaring sound?" His dad asked.
"Danny!" Tucker said more urgently. Danny ignored him again.
"What? I can't hear you, there it's kind of windy." Danny told his dad, but then he realized he didn't feel any wind.
"BEHIND YOU!!!" Tucker yelled, defining Danny's other ear for a moment.
He finally looked behind him and….
"AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Danny yelled turning intangible just before the plane hit him. He only got a quick glance at the occupants until the plane speed ahead of him. Afterwards he was completely still, stiff with fear.
"SON?! DANNY!!! WAS IT A GHOST?!? WE'RE ON OUR WAY!!!" Then he heard a dial tone. On his earphone it was a different story.
"Tucker what's going on? Danny what happened? …"
"Tucker stop laughing! Danny are you there? …"
"Tucker!!! ..."
"Ha… ha ha… phew… that was priceless man."
"Tucker what happened? Why isn't Danny responding?"
"Oh well he nearly hit with a plane. He is still floating there… good thing I got this all on tape huh?"
"WHAT!?!" Danny yelled finally relaxing a bit. "I was nearly killed and all you can do is sit there and laugh! And tape it?"
"Yep." Tucker replied simply.
"Well you better watch your back or tomorrow you will be announcing to the whole town that you like to eat your toe nails."
"What? How can you make me do… oh. Oh no, if you overshadow me Danny… I swear…"
"Then destroy the video, but first we need to get to the Nasty Burger."
"Why?" Sam asked after the boys were done arguing.
"Because that's where I said we were… remember… I said that to my dad before I had a near death experience with a plane…"
"Oh yeah… why is your dad going there?" Sam asked.
"He assumed we were attacked by ghosts and that's why I yelled."
"Screamed." Tucker corrected.
"Yelled." Danny said between his clinched teeth. Sam laughed. Danny took a calming breath and said, "Meet me there ASAP."
He received two Okays and then he turned the earphone off, and flew towards the restaurant. Less than two minutes later, he flew in through the ceiling in to the boys' bathroom. Making sure nobody saw him, he transformed back to Danny Fenton and walked out of the restroom. He looked around the restaurant and didn't see Tucker or Sam. 'Figures' he thought. 'They can't fly.' Tucker was on foot and Sam was on her new scooter.
"Hey! Didn't see you come in," Said a familiar voice. Danny turned around and saw Valerie.
"Hey Val!" Danny exclaimed. "I haven't seen you in a while! What have you been up to?" Danny asked politely, even though he knew exactly what she had been doing the past few days. Ghost hunting. To be more specific, hunting him, because he has been the only ghost around. Before Valerie came up with a cover up story a little girl that was sitting across the table from her said crossly, "You can talk to your boyfriend later… I'm done. I want my ice cream NOW!"
Valerie blushed furiously and said, "Beth he is NOT my boyfriend. And you don't get any ice cream. Who do you think you are to be bossing my around like that? I'm the one in charge here!"
"Well, then I guess that I will just have to tell my mom that you're not being nice to me…" The girl named Beth said picking up her cell phone.
Valerie glared at the girl that looked no older then eight and said between clenched teeth. "Wait… I'll get you your ice cream."
"Good." Beth stated. "I want a chocolate vanilla mix with green sprinkles on the top, and only green. Understood?"
Fuming, Valerie didn't say anything and abruptly left the table.
Danny followed her and gave her a questioning look. "What was tha—"
"She's my dad's bosses daughter. They made me baby-sit her while my dad and her had a meeting. If things work out, my dad might get promoted, but until then I have to look after that brat. All day she has been threatening to call her mom every time she doesn't get what she wants…" Valerie stole a glance over at Beth. She was smiled back at them, looking like a normal eight-year-old girl. Suddenly the cell phone in her hand started to ring.
Valerie panicked, and started walking over to her to see what she would say, but the girl glared at her and pointed back towards the line. Valerie seemed torn for a moment, so intent on finding out what the girl was saying but if she were to go over there then she would know the brat was going to say something bad about her for not staying in line. She came to a solution. "Danny! Go see what she is saying! I have to stay here!" Danny briskly walked over to the booth and stood behind Beth.
"Oh, well she isn't too bad, right now she is getting me some ice cream." A pause. "I know, I will call you straight away if she starts being mean." Another pause. "Okay mommy, I love you too! Bye." and she hung up. Danny sighed in relief behind her, hoping that Valerie's dad got that promotion so that the red huntress would maybe go a bit easer on him for causing him to get demoted in the first place.
"So what's your name boy?" Beth asked evilly.
"Uhh… Danny." He replied, hoping she wouldn't turn all evil on him as well.
"Really?!?" Beth asked, suddenly brightening.
"Yeah…" He said carefully, wondering what he did that was so special.
"You have the same first name as Danny Phantom!!!" She said in a fan girlish squeal. The rest of the restaurant went silent at that; looking at the little girl as if she was crazy, but as suddenly as it had stopped, it started again and Danny breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh yeah, that's weird." Danny stated rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
"If you tilt your head, you kind of even look like him, if you imagine your hair silver and your eyes green…"
"Wow! Look there's Sam and Tucker, gotta go, nice meeting you!" Danny said running towards his friends in the check out line and almost running in to Valerie in his hast to get away.
"I know." She said. "I've been wanting to run away all day, except I'm stuck with her..." She sighed.
"Bye Val! See you around!" Was Danny's reply.
"C ya." She mumbled back. Danny quickly slid in to the booth Sam and Tucker decided to sit at.
"Hey guys." He greeted.
"Hey Danny, what was that about?" Sam asked sipping on her water.
"A freaky little girl that is the closest person to figuring out my secret without seeing me transform." Danny replied quietly.
"Really?" Tucker asked.
"Really. Okay, but now I need a cover up story." Danny stated.
Sam raised her hand like a schoolgirl and said, "Oh Oh! I've got one! Pick me!"
Danny and Tucker looked at her as if she had grown an extra head. "Umm, okay what do you have in mind?" Tucker asked.
"This!!!" and before Danny or Tucker could do anything she pored her ice-cold water down Danny's shirt.
"AAAAAAHHHHHH! SAM! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!?" He yelled standing up, glaring at his friend.
"Aha, just as I thought. You have your cover up story." Before Danny could ask if she was out of her mind the doors burst open and an orange blur sped in to the restaurant.
"I'M COMING SON!!!" Jack Fenton cried, charging up his ectogun. Nobody made a sound. Danny quickly sat back down, trying to draw as less attention to himself as possible.
"Jack!" Maddie exclaimed. "It was supposed to be a surprise attack on the ghost!" She said sounding annoyed.
"Oh yeah…" Jack said, itching his head and letting his ectogun drop to his waist. Suddenly the whole restaurant burst in to laughter. Jack and Maddie seemed oblivious to it, and Maddie spotted the trio sitting there and walked over to their table.
"Danny are you okay?" She asked checking him over.
"Where's the ghost!?!" Jack asked, looking around suspiciously.
Danny sunk lower in to his seat as the restaurant burst in to another round of laughter.
"There was no ghost dad… Sam just spilled her water on me…" He replied.
"Awwwwwww. I really wanted to kick some ghost butt." Jack said, putting his ectogun away.
If Danny and his friends had ever wanted to disappear, it would be now. Finally people watching the scene went back to talking amongst themselves, and once again the "losers' table" was ignored. Maddie said, "Well now we know what really happened, I think that everybody should be heading home now."
"No buts young man, I would normally allow you guys to be out till dark but since there is a storm coming, it's going to get dark a lot sooner."
"Moo-oom, I promise there will be no ghosts! It's the first week of summer! Can't we just…"
"No. You don't know if there will be ghosts or not, and tell me what would you do if a ghost as powerful as Phantom attacked you hummm?" Sam and Tucker snickered, but Danny continued listing. "He has been known to come out when it is dark…"
Danny started to say, "only when a ghost att—"
But his mother just continued talking. "…And today is the one-year anniversary since he was put on the #1 on the most wanted list, so he is expected to have even more activity."
Danny sighed. "Fine." He replied dejectedly. They all got up and started to head towards the door.
Then Jack said excitedly, "You guys better hurry home, the storm is coming in pretty fast!"
"What, you're not going to give us a ride?" Danny asked.
"Nope! We have to go down to the mayors' office just in case Phantom decides to attack again! He personally picked us to be his body guard for a full twenty-four hours!" Maddie said also looking excided.
"Greeeaaaaat. Have fun with that!" Danny said sarcastically.
"We will!" His dad replied, hopping in to the Fenton Assault Vehicle with his wife and taking off.
Danny sighed. "Well then, I guess I will see you guys tomorrow."
"K, c ya Danny!" Sam said taking off towards her house.
"Make sure you don't get attacked by Phantom on the way home!!!" Tucker yelled back, also taking off towards his house.
"Okay, I'll try to avoid him!!!" Danny yelled back, smiling. Then he shook his head and chuckled to himself, heading towards the bright neon sign labeled "Fenton Works" just as it started sprinkle.
Hey! Guess who's back!?!? Yep, this is probably going to be a shorter story, but that's because of school. Anyways the inspiration for this story came from a dream… and that dream came from me based on a true story. Well I wouldn't call it a dream… more of a nightmare, but that's the fun part of suspense stories.
Going back to the old tradition of asking a question instead of just asking for a plain old review, I think this time the question will be… what is your favorite holiday?
Please Review!!!

WASHINGTON, DC – Recent violence in Kazakhstan and Tajikistan, following civil strife in Kyrgyzstan in 2010, has intensified international concern about Central Asia's security as the region becomes increasingly important for delivering NATO supplies to the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan.
Central Asian countries allow NATO members and partners to transport supplies through their territory to support military forces in Afghanistan – an essential complement to the flow of supplies to the ISAF through Pakistan, which is vulnerable to tensions with the United States.
These countries have been logical partners for NATO in Afghanistan. They share Western concerns about a revival of the Afghan Taliban and their potential support for extremist Islamist movements in other Central Asian countries. Indeed, all five of the post-Soviet Central Asian countries – Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan – have been targeted by Muslim extremist organizations linked to the Taliban and al-Qaeda.
Moreover, Central Asian leaders are eager to maintain NATO's presence in Eurasia as a way to balance China and Russia. Although the region's leaders generally enjoy good relations with both countries, they fear that Russian military and Chinese economic dominance could lead to the rise a Sino-Russian condominium at their expense.

Through her art, she hopes to give another perspective of life — to take life more seriously in a less serious way.
She snapchats her work processes and happenings under "puffingmuffin". And when she's not working on her illustrations, you may find her catching up on The Vampire Diaries and swooning over Ian Smoulderhalder — no, it's Somerhalder!

Koulourakia, (in Greek pronounced: koo-loo-RAHK-yah), is a traditional Greek dessert, typically made at Easter, to be eaten after Holy Saturday.
A koulouakia is a butter cookie, traditionally hand-shaped, with egg glaze on top. It has a sweet delicate flavor with a hint of vanilla. Koulourakia are well known for their sprinkle of sesame seeds and distinctive ring shape. In fact, the word is the diminutive form for a ring-shaped loaf or lifebelt.
These cookies are also often shaped like small snakes by the Minoans, as they worshiped the snake for its healing powers. Nowadays, the cookies can be shaped into braided circles, hairpin twists, figure eights, twisted wreaths, horseshoes or Greek letters, although they are still often shaped into a snake style.

Are you ready for the first look of Naga Chaitanya and Shruti Haasan's upcoming film, which is a remake of Malayalam blockbuster Premam? Well! The makers of the film are ready too. The first look of Chay's next, along with the official title of the film, will be unveiled on 19 February.
"Official title and first look will be out on feb 19th .. NC 12 .. Watch out!", read a tweet from the Akkineni scion's official handle. Apparently, the reports suggests that the film has been titled Majnu.
If you remember, there is a film called Majnu, which stars Nagarjuna, as well and the makers felt the title would be an apt one for the film. Since it comes with an added advantage of Nag's factor, Chay has also given an instant nod.
It has Shruti Haasan, Anupama Parameshwaran and Madonna Sebastian in the lead roles. Shruti, who is pairing up with Chaitanya for the first time, will Donne a de-glam role, as a college professor in cotton sarees and no make-up.
She is reprising the role played by Sai Pallavi in the original. Since the character had won many hearts in Malayalam and became a very popular character among the youth in South India, it has garnered a great hype for the Telugu version as well.
Meanwhile, Naga Chaitanya, who had to face a debacle with his last release Dochay, is trying to get back to his most celebrated place, with two back-to-back romantic dramas in his kitty. One being Majnu, the other is Gautam Menon's Sahasame Swasaga Saagipo. Looks like some exciting times are ahead for the actor.

On 1 April 2013 the "big bang" of civil litigation reforms came into effect following Lord Justice Jackson's recommendations. The reforms were principally designed to deal with the costs involved in civil litigation which Lord Justice Jackson felt had become disproportionate.
This article will focus on some of the central elements of the reforms and look at what their initial impact has been.
Funding and Costs
The success fees under conditional fee agreements ("CFAs") and after the event ("ATE") insurance premiums are no longer recoverable from the losing party. Claimants can still enter into CFAs or take out ATE insurance but must be aware of the fact that they will have to foot the cost of doing so i.e. they will be paying the ATE premium and the CFA success fee out of any damages they receive.
Damages based agreements ("DBAs") have been introduced as an alternative funding mechanism for claimants. DBAs are a kind of contingency fee arrangement where the fee that the solicitor receives will be contingent on the success of the case and be an agreed percentage of any damages that are recovered. The DBA fee will be expressed as a percentage and will be the amount of the damages that the solicitor will be entitled to as his fee. The maximum DBA fee is 50%.
Any costs which are recovered from the losing party are to be deducted from the contingency fee as opposed to added on top of it. Thus, the maximum that the solicitor can recover is the level of the contingency fee.
Example: Solicitor and client enter into a 50% DBA. Damages of £100,000 and costs of £15,000 are recovered. The solicitor can recover 50% of the damages i.e. £50,000. The client will have a net recovery of £65,000.
The overriding objective has also been amended so that cases not only have to be dealt with justly, but also "at proportionate cost". Costs management will now apply to all multi-track cases in the County Court or High Court. All parties must file and exchange costs budgets which the court will use to manage the costs in the case. When assessing costs the court will have regard to a party's last approved / agreed budget.
Part 36 Offers
There is now an additional costs sanction which is payable by defendants who do not accept a claimant's Part 36 offer which is less than the amount eventually recovered. The sanction is equivalent to 10% of the value of the claim or, for non-damages claims, 10% of costs. The sanction is tapered for large claims so that the maximum amount awarded is £75,000 for claims over £1m.
A new disclosure procedure has been introduced for all multi-track cases. A "menu" of options for disclosure has replaced the presumption of standard disclosure being used. Two weeks prior to the first Case Management Conference ("CMC") the parties must serve and file reports stating what documents exist, where / how they are stored and the costs that would be involved in giving standard disclosure. The court will then decide on which of the various "menu" options is to be adopted.
The greatest effect of the reforms has undoubtedly been to the way that claims are funded. Now more than ever, parties must give serious thought to the options that are available to them. Whilst CFAs remain available, the success fee and any ATE insurance premium will come out of the damages that are recovered. As a result, claimants will have to keep a closer eye on the costs that are being incurred. The fact that success fees and ATE insurance premiums are no longer recoverable from the losing party is certainly good news for defendants.
It is too early to tell whether DBA's will become a popular funding option for claimants. One important change though is that in appropriate cases, DWF are now able to offer a DBA package for claims which are referred to Adjudication.
A key aspect of the reforms is promoting early settlement between the parties. The amendment to the Civil Procedure Rules' overriding objective means that cases must now be dealt with in a proportionate way. For cases commenced on or after 1 April 2013 there is a new test of proportionality, which provides that costs incurred by a party are proportionate if they bear a reasonable relationship to:
- the sums in issue in the proceedings;
- the value of any non-monetary relief in issue in the proceedings;
- the complexity of the litigation;
- any additional work generated by the conduct of the paying party; and
- any wider factors involved in the proceedings, such as reputation or public importance.
As a result, the costs incurred by parties are now more significant than ever. Parties are likely to be penalised if they insist on steps being taken which are deemed to be disproportionate to the sums in dispute. The additional 10% sanction for failing to accept a good Part 36 offer puts even more pressure on defendants to settle when faced with a settlement offer. Accordingly, Part 36 offers are a tactical weapon that has become even more important than before.
Construction disputes are often complex matters that are very document heavy. As a result of the revised disclosure provisions, construction clients will need to get to grips with the documents relating to their dispute at an early stage in the proceedings. The court has flexibility when it comes to choosing which of the disclosure options is most appropriate. The option that is selected will depend heavily on the individual facts of the case.

With the first day of spring come and gone, it's time to sweep cobwebs from the tools in the garden shed and get planting.
For residents of Clarkson, KY—"Bee City USA"—spring gardening presents a special opportunity to welcome pollinators back into our yards. Whether you're ready to till up your whole lawn and replace it with beneficial wildflowers, or simply add a few butterfly host plants to a window box, you'll be playing a crucial role in pollinator conservation. Each and every one of us can help reverse the decline of our honey bees, native bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Here are a few tips to help you get started:
1. Go native with Kentucky's recommended native plant list
The Kentucky Native Plant Society's website (knps.org) is a good starting point in identifying the state's native plant species. A photo gallery highlighting some of our area's native plants can be found under the "Quick Links" section of their website. Also under that section is the "Native Plants for Kentucky" tab, which directs you to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Highlighting indigenous Kentucky native flowering species that our native pollinators depend on, this list not only covers what to plant but includes useful information about each species, such as required site conditions, bloom time, which pollinators they will attract, and which local native nurseries carry them. The list is available at wildflower.org. Select Kentucky from the menu on the left side of the page and click "Narrow Your Search."
2. Continuous bloom in a variety of shapes and colors
An abundance and diversity of flowering plants in your garden will attract an abundance and diversity of pollinators (plus bonus wildlife, like songbirds). Plan your garden design so that several species are in bloom at any given time from spring through fall (check out the plant list at the website mentioned above for information about what blooms when). Be sure to include a variety of flower shapes and colors: bees are most likely to frequent shallow white, yellow, and blue flowers while butterflies prefer flat flower heads in shades of red and purple. Orange or red tubular flowers will attract hummingbirds. Be sure to include important butterfly host plants since many butterfly species will only lay eggs on certain flowers, trees, or shrubs—again, check the list!
3. Leave the chemicals behind
Overuse and misuse of pesticides is a major contributor to pollinator declines. One of the joys of creating a healthy native pollinator garden is observing all the wildlife it nourishes—ants and beetles probing for nectar, tiny solitary bees investigating tiny blossoms, fat caterpillars munching foliage and the occasional songbird swooping down to snatch one for its nestlings. Pesticides can compromise an entire food web, so pollinator plantings should be kept chemical-free. Making sure purchased plants were propagated without the use of neonicotinoids (a systemic pesticide that permeates even the pollen and nectar) will get your garden off to a healthy start.
4. Be a little wild
In addition to nutrition provided by flower nectar and pollen, pollinators also need places to nest and hibernate. Of our 4000+ native bee species, only bumble bees are colony nesters. The rest are solitary bees who prefer the quiet life in a hole in the ground or old wood, or in the hollow stems of last year's plant growth. We can welcome these critters to stay a while by leaving an area of our garden less manicured—let that fallen log or pile of stones stay and leave a patch of dirt un-mulched. Providing a shallow bird bath or "butterfly puddle" will also help a great deal during dry periods.
5. Take a closer look
Most fun, spend time in your pollinator garden! Investigate and observe. There is a truly vast and fascinating world in miniature unfolding among those flowers. Once you begin taking a closer look to see a bee snoozing inside flower petals at the crack of dawn, or recognizing the difference between a bee and a bee-mimicking fly or which caterpillar turns into which butterfly, you'll be hooked. And then you'll find yourself planning how to expand and improve next year's pollinator garden.
6. Register your garden at the Million Pollinator Garden Challenge website
The Million Pollinator Garden Challenge is a nationwide call to action to help preserve and create gardens and landscapes that help revive the health of bees, butterflies, birds, bats and other pollinators across America. The goal is to register at least one million gardens by the end of 2017. You can help reach the goal!

Talking Picpoul and Corsican Wine with Momofuku's Jordan Salcito
Talking Picpoul and Corsican Wine with Momofuku's Jordan Salcito
Posted February 09, 2015
WineLibrary Staff
When you order wine at any of the Momofuku restaurants, you know you're in good hands, because their beverage director, Jordan Salcito, has basically done it all. From Somming at Eleven Madison park, to harvest in Burgundy, to GILT (with our pal Patrick Cappiello), to having her own wine brand, Bellus, Jordan is one of the most rounded talents in the wine industry. So of course it's no surprise that she now runs the wine program across David Chang's food empire.
We caught up with her at Má Pêche shortly after they introduced their new dim-sum-style program, and along with that, the super-cool "56 Wines for 56 Dollars" list (which we're in love with). She told us about some of the logic behind the program, and from there we ended up jamming on some of her favorite, most versitile wines to pair with food. Ok enough reading, more watching:

You guys made our dream wedding come true! We honestly couldn't have done it without you all. You made the process way less stressful and took care of any problems that came up. We are so happy that we choose you guys to plan our wedding! Thank you so so much! Kelly was amazing! I highly recommend Just Save the Date to anyone. They handled everything professionally and took the stress away from planning a wedding.
Emma Hoyt Lowrey
Kelly and her team were absolutely amazing. We hired Just Save the Date as our month of wedding planner. Kelly was so amazing and was available to us throughout the entire year process of our planning to answer questions and give us suggestions when we asked for them. Her team did an amazing job of setting up for our wedding reception and really making everything turn out exactly like our vision. We worked mostly with Kelly and Andrea and cannot thank them enough for being AMAZING. My husband and I loved Kelly and look forward to keeping in touch for years to come. She has become a friend to us in addition to having been our wedding planner. We cannot say enough great things about this Vendor.
Ozzy Garcia
Kelly from Just Save the Date was INCREDIBLE! I hired Kelly with her full service package, meaning that she was with me starting a year before the wedding...I have to admit I am extremely detail oriented and an ex-event planner myself...so I had high expectations, but Kelly and Leslie took our wedding as if it was their own. They were engaged in everything and so interested in exactly what we wanted for the look and feel of the wedding. The day-of, I sat back and drank champagne and got pampered with my bridesmaids while Kelly and Leslie were working away making sure that everything was set up and perfect. There wasn't a moment where I thought I needed to go check on anything. I knew they would make it just how we envisioned it. And they did. There is no price you can put on peace of mind on your wedding day. This duo is the best of the best, they go above and beyond and made our wedding day so seamless. Not only that, but they felt like family after our week long wedding. You would be lucky to have them on your wedding day.
I was planning my wedding long-distance, so it was important to me to develop trust with someone in just a few phone calls. I spoke with Kelly, who was personable but genuine, and seemed enthusiastic, yet laid back... perfect for me. We corresponded with Kelly for months -she was constantly checking up on us to make sure everything was going well. It was awesome to have a line of contact in Key West.The month leading up to the wedding, the services of Just Save the Date became more than helpful... they were invaluable. They literally took over - they made schedules, coordinated with vendors.... everything was taken care of. Kelly ended up having her baby literally the week of our wedding - which could have been a disaster for us, frankly. Leslie, swooped in and seamlessly took over where Kelly left off. She orchestrated everything so that we never knew anyone else was there(at our intimate nine guests event). I could not encourage anyone enough to hire a planner... and I couldn't recommend anyone more than Just Save the Date. Thank you for the most perfect day.

After working with Kelly and Leslie I can say a wedding planner is well worth it. I was planning my wedding from across the country and they made it so easy. They lead me to amazing vendors and helped negotiate which was great since the time difference made everything so much harder. The entire wedding ran seamlessly because of them, if there was a problem I did not know about it. I would recommend these lovely ladies to anyone planning a wedding.
We hired Kelly and Leslie from Just Save the Date as our day of wedding planners which also included several check-in calls leading up to the big day as well as many, many emails answering our questions and providing suggestions for additional vendors. These two were literally life-savers leading up to the wedding. We were able to ship everything to them, including stuff for our welcome bags, favors and guestbook. They brought us what we needed when we needed it and took everything else for set up on the wedding day. They set up everything perfectly, we didn't have to think about any of it. They coordinated vendors and helped us with shoes, bustles (including a minor bustle-mergency halfway through), finding one of the bride's lost purses and even took our flowers from the reception and decorated our room with them. What a wonderful and beautiful surprise waiting for us at the end of the night!
Let me start by saying that a 5 out of 5 does not give Kelly from Just Save the Date justice - she was a perfect 10 all around! From the minute we met her, she was extremely professional. Her knowledge and expertise was so apparent throughout our entire planning process, the day of the event, and even the following day. Kelly was brought into the process less than 3 months before our wedding date, and because of her, the day went how I had envisioned it. Kelly arrived the afternoon before for our rehearsal and was already able to solve the first problem - some of the rentals were wrong and she solved it right away and had the new ones brought in. The day of the wedding, Kelly arrived early to go through all of the details of the day with us. I found out later, that her and her assistant basically set up the entire ceremony area & reception area since one of the other vendors had not shown up on time (keep in mind I hired Kelly to coordinate everything the day of, it was not in her job description to do any of the setting up yet she did it without even being asked). As the night went on, I could not imagine how it would have ended up without her solving every single problem as they occurred (and trust me, there were a lot that I found out about the following day - she made sure to solve the problem quietly, discreetly, and professionally). The day went absolutely perfectly from what my husband and I saw, and that was all thanks to her!! I would HIGHLY recommend Kelly to anyone planning their wedding! Kelly - we cannot thank you enough for all that you did!!!
Kelly, where do I begin? My journey with Kelly started a year before my wedding and I elected to do the full wedding service. From my first meeting with Kelly to the days after my wedding, Kelly always made me feel number one. I could never say thank you enough and feel like I expressed my gratitude to her attention to detail and professionalism. On my wedding day, Kelly created an itinerary for wedding guests and vendors. I was relieved to know I had someone in my corner to take care of all vendors and issues that arose. It blows my mind that the vision I had in mind on how my wedding day would be and look, far exceeded my expectations. Kelly has an astonishing ability to pull ideas together to create a day that will NEVER be forgotten. I feel like I formed a new friend in Kelly, rather than just hiring a wedding planner.
The Just Save The Date girls were amazing. They "saved the day" at our wedding when we had issues with our caterer, and even poured wine as part of dinner service - they truly went above and beyond! It was a pleasure working with them and I cannot say enough good things about their organization, execution and day of delivery. I am a event planner myself and they made me feel calm, cool and collected the entire day ... I did not worry once! Highly, highly recommend!

Kelly was amazing from start to finish. She always answered emails and phone call promptly. She had great recommendations for vendors. The weekend of the wedding she really helped a ton! It made it worry free for my husband and I. She kept us ready and on time all weekend. I didn't have to worry about any of the day of details. All the way through the end of the night she packed our gifts, guest book, photo booth book, etc. into her room so that we could continue the party with our guests. This is worth every penny. She was so much help!! It really makes your day flow perfectly and let's you enjoy every minute.

I hired Kelly for full service planning. I started working with her about 11 months before my wedding. She guided me towards the best vendors in Key West and did all of the heavy lifting before and during my wedding day. The piece of mind that Kelly provided was priceless. Every time I started to feel overwhelmed, Kelly was right there to handle everything. A few months before my wedding, the venue coordinator at my venue left and someone new took over. I was so fortunate to have Kelly on my side during that stressful time as I knew she was looking out for me and me only. She consistently went above and beyond and made sure that everything went smoothly. There were a few little blips on the big day, but by the time I found out, Kelly had already taken care of it and found a solution. I am so happy to be a part of the Just Save the Date family and you will be too!

These ladies were simply amazing! We paid for the day of package and I found the need to call them during the planning for advice. They were so happy to share recommendations and more! My wish is that I would of done the full package with them, but for cost we didn't since there was a coordinator at Casa Marina. This company is a class act and went above and beyond for us! We cannot thank them enough for a flawless day and always there to help when needed. They secured an umbrella when it rained and helped incorporate it into our photos despite missing out on sunset due to rain. They were so helpful with our bridal party and keeping them on time since it was a large group and people were unsure about what to do most of the time. We were even happier to learn that we were supporting military families by hiring them! I would hire them all over again - my day was flawless, easy, and fun thanks to them!

Kelly from Just Save the Date was one of the best investments I made for my wedding! She was an incredible sounding board to bounce ideas off of and help guide my vision. We kept in constant contact throughout the process, where she always listened and gave me great advice. She was also very accommodating with scheduling meetings and walk-throughs as we live in Orlando and were planning a destination wedding in the Keys. She has a wealth of knowledge in all things wedding related, including vendors, for all budget types. She is highly known and recommended by all of the local vendors, which came in handy when negotiating contracts. She has excellent organizational skills and worked well with all of my other vendors and wedding party. She was able to think quickly and resolve any issues leading to and on the day of the wedding, allowing me to keep calm and enjoy the day.It's been almost two years and people are still talking about our wedding and how special it was, which was largely due to Kelly and her team! If you are planning a wedding, I highly recommend Kelly and Just Save The Date!

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
On PS3, Xbox 360, Windows PC, Mac, Linux
Reviewed on Windows PC
Classification: MA15+
Reviewer's rating: 6/10
Australia has precious few large studios producing so-called AAA video games after almost a decade of mergers, buyouts, and closures.
One of these few is 2K Australia, the local branch of 2K Games, based in Canberra. They have worked on such illustrious titles as all three Bioshock games and the cult favourite superhero game Freedom Force, among others.
2K Australia were granted a very special project: an in-between game in the Borderlands series, taking place after the original game, but before the sequel, hence the made-up term "pre-sequel". Borderlands has always been Gearbox's project, so for 2K Australia to get the chance to put their own spin on this popular series was a major coup.
The Pre-Sequel is a stand-alone game, not an expansion pack, but it is deeply entwined in Borderlands lore. Long-time fans will recognise many characters, including, somewhat strangely, playable characters that have already been seen in Borderlands 2 as villains.
For the most part, this is just more Borderlands, and fans of the series will say this is a good thing. Where the first sequel gave the original game's systems a major overhaul and polish, this third game is more of an iteration, adding some fun new features without mixing up the formula too much.
The most obvious difference is that The Pre-Sequel takes place not on the planet Pandora, where both of the previous games were set, but up on Pandora's moon, Elpis. There is no air, so players need to carry oxygen with them, and the gravity is very low, which allows characters to jump further and higher than usual.
These two factors interact in a very fun way: rather than saving it to breathe, players can use parts of their oxygen supply in movement and combat. A quick boost will add extra height and distance to their jumps, or allow them to stop quickly when headed for a cliff. They can also zoom downwards while in mid-jump, slamming into the ground and sending enemies flying. Add-ons can supplement these slams with fire, acid, or other special damage types.
Some new weapon types have also been added. To match the lunar setting, players can now find laser weapons and freeze weapons. The latter can sometimes freeze enemies solid, allowing a gunshot or well-timed ground-slam to shatter them into tiny pieces.
This game's country of origin is reflected in its voice acting; it has more Australian voices than perhaps any other game ever made. For some reason, the population of the moon is primarily Australian, and it is surprising just how strange these voices sound. Gamers are used to American and British accents in their games, so hearing that familiar Aussie twang is both wonderful and weird.
Many local references also creep in, including sly commentary on Australian culture, politics, and history. There is even a joke about terra nullius which would go right over the heads of non-Australian players.
Sadly, some of the voice acting is not up to scratch, and while the script is often clever and amusing, it is not quite up to Gearbox's standards. For every genuine laugh-out-loud moment there are several groans, and more than one character will get on players' nerves.
Overall, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel feels a bit tacked on. It gives the impression of a very long expansion pack rather than a stand-alone game - there isn't enough new gameplay, it lacks a bit too much polish, and it feels far too familiar.
This is an enjoyable enough way for Borderlands fanatics to fill the void while they wait for Gearbox to make a true sequel (it will be a long wait - their upcoming title Battleborn is still a year away). In keeping with the rest of the series it still works well as a co-operative experience, especially with four players, but solo players will likely find it unsatisfying.
It is good enough, but never great, and it never quite manages to fill the big shoes left by its predecessors.

Also, what about Cheyenne, Wyoming? We can get Denver, CO but we also get a local paper and the coupons are not identical to Denver's.
I forgot to ask below for "notify of followup"
Hi Wendy,
We depend on local readers from each city to type the coupons that they get in their papers every week for us in exchange for Groupon Credit. If you do not see a list that is probably because we don't have any volunteers for that area. If you or anyone you know would be interested in typing lists up in your area email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Sorry, one more. There is no listing for Denver for 2/03/13. Why?
Looks like our Denver writer is a little behind. I will email her. Thanks

AbstractIn this program, we propose a radio frequency (RF) direction finding sensor for low probability of intercept (LPI) RF radar system. This sensor consists of a dielectric lenses focusing system and an innovative focus plane detector array (FPDA) developed by Spectrum Magnetics, LLC (SM). The focusing system project the RF signal onto its focus plane. A novel FPDA based on emerging spintronic and metamaterials devices, with each element being much smaller than the EM wavelength, accurately detects the diffracted field distribution produced by the lenses. The center of the distribution is related to the direction of the incident waves. The direction can thus be extracted from the position of image of the transmitter in the focus plane and parameters of the focusing lens system.

Male enhancement is a hot item in the media and medical world. More and more men with sexual dysfunction problems are seeking medical advice to remedy it. While doctors tend to offer various drugs as treatment options, these drugs also have serious side effects, including blindness. For a more natural solution--and one free of side effects--consider the following home remedies for optimal male enhancement and performance.
Ginkgo biloba is an herb with the ability to increase circulation. Its benefits for patients have included memory improvement, reduction in heart disease, and recently, fertility assistance. In a study published by the British Journal of Pharmacology, it was found that men who took 60 mg. of Ginkgo biloba each day showed drastic enhancement improvements after six months.
One warning however, is that those with blood clotting issues or that are on anticoagulant medication should not use Ginkgo as it can impact the body's ability to stop bleeding in case of an emergency, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Dehydroepiandrosterone or DHEA is an essential protein for the male body to create testosterone. Testosterone is one of the primary contributing hormones for healthy male sexuality. Men who took DHEA supplements showed fuller, larger erections as well as improved levels of, levels of PSA, prolactin and testosterone in a study conducted by the University of Vienna.
L-arginine is a natural amino acid that scientists can extract and concentrate from sources such as red meat. Eighty percent of men (out of 40, age group 25 to 45) with erectile dysfunction treated with L-arginine (dosage: 1.7 g/ day) and Pycnogenol, an extract from French maritime pine bark (Pinus pinaster), (dosage: 80 mg/day) recovered from their erectile dysfunction after one month of treatment. In the study by The Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy, the patients also were given Pycnogenol, an antioxidant that enhances the absorption of L-arginine.
The ultimate means for achieving male enhancement is ironically enough, the only method that is completely free. A healthy lifestyle free for smoking, alcohol, caffeine and processed foods and rich in exercise and intercourse is guaranteed to improve overall performance. Caffeine is an instant male enhancement killer states Mark H. Cline, Ph.D., a psychologist and researcher at the Male Health Center in Dallas. He found that caffeine releases adrenaline, which shuts off blood flow to the penis.
Smoking also promotes impotence, says Sheldon Burman, M.D., founder and director of the Male Sexual Dysfunction Institute in Chicago. Quit smoking to avoid the early onset of impotence or help reverse it. Smoking is harmful because it restricts circulation and blood supply, and since less blood reaches the penis it is more difficult to get an erection.

* 10-year note yields lowest since Oct, 30-year yields lowest since June * Data showed mixed signs of economic strength * Speculative short covering seen sending yields lower By Karen Brettell NEW YORK, May 15 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasuries prices gained on Thursday and benchmark 10-year note yields fell to six-month lows after a weak manufacturing indicator overcame other data releases that showed solid U.S. economic strength. The rally was also seen as due to a record number of short positions, where investors bet on yield increases, as these investors have been forced to cover their bearish bets each time bonds rally. U.S. industrial output fell at its fastest rate in more than 1-1/2 years in April as factory production slumped, tempering hopes for a big jump in economic growth after a winter slowdown. Data earlier on Thursday was more bullish on the economy, showing that fewer Americans filed for unemployment benefits in the last week, consumer prices posted their largest increase in 10 months in April and a gauge of manufacturing in New York state accelerated to its fastest pace in nearly four years. Treasuries have rallied even as many investors see yields as likely to rise as the economy gains momentum, with many speculating that the Federal Reserve is likely to begin raising interest rates next year. Some of the gains are due to the expectation that central banks globally will continue to provide loose monetary conditions, with the European Central Bank expected to cut interest rates next month. But a record number of speculators betting on bond yield increases is also increasingly seen as behind the bond rally, throwing the market off balance and sending yields lower regardless of what the U.S. economic data shows. "The short positioning in the street has been really quite severe," said Aaron Kohli, an interest rate strategist at BNP Paribas in New York. "Too many people got short early and now there is no one left to follow them into the trade and they are covering themselves." Data last Friday showed that speculators' net bearish bets in Eurodollar futures rose to a record high in the previous week following an unexpectedly strong reading on U.S. payrolls in April, according to Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Bearish bets on five-year and ten-year Treasuries futures have also increased in recent weeks. Benchmark 10-year notes were last up 10/32 in price to yield 2.510 percent, after falling as low as 2.502 percent immediately after the industrial production data, the lowest since Oct. 30. Thirty-year bonds were last up 20/32 in price to yield 3.34 percent, after earlier falling as low as 3.32 percent, the lowest since June. (Editing by W Simon)
