Tech News on G4
Call of Duty sticks to its guns
Nov 19, 2015
By John Powell - G4 Canada
back to -|- Tech News index -|- John Powell column archive
The bionics are back. Embracing its madcap, sci-fi heritage, the third instalment of the Black Ops Call of Duty franchise offers more futuristic wackiness and chugs ahead like a well-oiled machine.
Set 40 years after the last installment, technology has continued to advance as has the chaos in our world. Able to jack into the very minds of their cybernetic soldiers (Direct Neural Interface (DNI), the black ops team is still putting fires out around the world. The future soldiers not only have enhanced strength, speed and agility, they can now summon nanobots to swarm their enemies, hack and either control mechanized foes or even cause them to breakdown and implode. Those new abilities come in handy as the plot borrows a page or two from The Terminator with robotic adversaries threatening to take over the world.
These new skills alter the gameplay in positive ways. Combat has become more flexible. While your weapons will still get a vigorous workout, your expanded arsenal bolsters your tactics, giving you far more options in the battlefield. For example, the new ground pound attack can reduce entire squadrons to scrap metal or broken bones.
What the future (Treyarch) gives, the future (Treyarch) also takes away though. Most of the new-fangled abilities need to be charged before you can put them into play and unlike other Call of Duty games, you cannot pick up and use enemy weapons unless you use the default class and unlocked a special skill. In the future, firearms are networked, linked to specific soldiers. While that is discouraging, it all makes sense when you take into account the time and place.
The approximately six hour campaign is not the only mode to get an upgrade from Treyarch. Zombie and multiplayer modes have also been given game-changing improvements. In the first story in Zombies mode, Shadows of Evil, a co-op campaign, brings together a motley crew of zombie exterminators voiced by Hollywood heavyweights Jeff Goldblum, Heather Graham, Neal McDonough and Ron Perlman. They are tasked with clearing out the imperiled Morg City of living dead under the direction of the mysterious Shadowman.
To battle the undead, you can surprisingly become a monster yourself at times, a Cthulhu-like creature but only once per round.
The Giant, the second Zombies storyline, uses the original characters but takes place in an alternate future, an alternate world, in which they are trying to put the timeline back together.
In both Zombie modes, the leash on character progression has been removed. An XP system lets players improve their skills and weapons along the way, making for more fluid gameplay.
There is a big change to the multiplayer element as well. Before the round or game begins you have to select and then play as a Specialist who has one dedicated power and weapon. This throws a welcome wrench into the works transforming the multiplayer experience in the sense that teams are more diverse than ever.
Black Ops 3 is a fully loaded package, with hours and hours of content to experience and explore. Treyarch's shrewd improvements retain the core Call of Duty tone, feel while at the same time rejigging the gameplay just enough to mix things up for those series veterans. Some worry about the franchise as a whole suffering from fatigue but under Treyarch's watch, Black Ops has a bright, if not, twisted future.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 3

Oregon Fishing
A big, sprawling western state with fir-clad mountains and rustic desert scenery, Oregon fishing offers an unbelievably diverse experience. Every part of the Beaver State has something unique for the angler, and unlimited diversions for those that don't fish. The western half of the state is home to ocean fishing and trout, but is best known for its legendary runs of salmon and steelhead. The eastern half is home to high desert and pine-covered mountain ranges and is world-renown for its trout fishing.
The urban centers of Portland and Bend offer everything a traveler could want in the name of restaurants, resorts, and lodgings, while offering fine Oregon fishing right within their city limits. Each is an excellent jumping-off point for exploring the Oregon fishing opportunities. Continue reading Oregon Fishing

'Green' construction crosses into mainstream
Green building is becoming more of a standard practice throughout the residential construction process in Hawaii, as builders embrace energy-saving and sustainable methods such as recycling materials and using solar power for hot water.
No longer a niche for the environmentally conscious, green building practices have crossed into the mainstream, said Kyle Chock, executive director of the Pacific Resource Partnership, a joint program of the Hawaii Carpenters Union and some 200 unionized contractors across the state.
"Everyone seems to be taking their individual responsibility a lot more seriously now," Chock said. "It's no longer the future; it's something that's here now."
Following the LEED
Green building for commercial construction is defined by the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program, a voluntary standard that defines high-performance green buildings that prevent pollution, reduce energy usage, and use natural light and air ventilation in addition to recycled materials.
Some of the green building practices defined in the LEED program, such as using photovoltaic panels to generate electricity, have been deemed too costly for custom-home building. Prices for what will become Hawaii's first residential LEED project, the Maui-based Dowling Co.'s luxury Maluaka condominium in Makena, start at $5 million.
But green homes, as defined by other state and federal programs, already are being built in Hawaii by developers of tract homes and by the companies that have billion-dollar contracts to rebuild and renovate thousands of units of military housing on Oahu.
Dev Braganza, vice president of Hunt Development Group, said the construction company's progression into green building has been driven by its clients. Hunt is one of the construction companies building and renovating homes for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps for developer Forest City Hawaii.
And it is the U.S. Defense Department that is a driving factor for developers hoping to win awards for work, said Jon Wallenstrom, chief operating officer for Forest City Hawaii, which builds to standards set by the federal government's Energy Star program and is working with Hawaiian Electric Co. on its energy-saving and rebate programs.
"Developers, as they win these awards, are being judged on the way they are green," Wallenstrom said.
Forest City and Hunt employ a number of practices to create more environmentally friendly buildings, such as using steel to frame houses, taking advantage of the trade winds to cool homes, installing energy-saving features such as compact fluorescent lamps and low-flow toilets and fixtures, and using solar panels to heat water.
Army Hawaii Family Housing, Actus Lend Lease's public-private partnership with the Army that is rebuilding and renovating some 8,000 homes at Schofield Barracks and other sites on Oahu, is installing solar panels on all of the nearly 5,400 new homes it is building, said spokeswoman Ann Wharton. The partnership also is installing photovoltaic panels, which convert solar energy into electricity, on half of the homes, she said.
Braganza said that as Hunt learns to build production homes for the military more cost-effecttively, it will take those efficiencies to the private sector. Hunt is working on the University of Hawaii West Oahu campus, which is aiming for LEED certification, and plans to build homes on 298 acres adjacent to the Kapolei campus.
Cost still is an issue, however, for most builders, said Lance Wilhelm, senior vice president and Hawaii manager for Kiewit Building Group, which built a facility at Hickam Air Force Base under the military's green building guidelines.
While materials and design are generally specified by the architects and developers, builders incur added costs from the additional labor required to recycle waste generated by demolition and packaging, Wilhelm said. But owners recoup that higher price with buildings that cost less to cool and maintain, he said.
"The way to look at it is on a total program basis," he said.
'Green' user guide
For private home builders, the Building Industry Association of Hawaii's Hawaii BuiltGreen program has published a user guide and checklist since 2001, said BIA Hawaii CEO Karen Nakamura.
The checklist includes some 250 items to follow under five areas: preparing a site for building, design choices, recycling, sustainable products and energy conservation.
Large developers, including Castle & Cooke, D.R. Horton-Schuler Division, Gentry Homes Hawaii and Haseko, are incorporating energy-saving features defined by the Hawaii BuiltGreen and Energy Star programs into their residential communities, which include installing energy-efficient appliances.
"We have verified 1,000 homes that have been built to our Hawaii BuiltGreen checklist," Nakamura said. "As they begin to build green we will have a larger community of homes that are being built green."

Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon 2, 9th May written episode: Astha tries to convince Anjali who firmly sticks to her point of not making any birthday celebration. Sojal thinks she must ruin Astha's plan. She provokes Abhay saying that when he is half-dead in grief due to the absence of his wife, the Agnihotri family is celebrating Anjali's birthday.
Abhay questions Anjali about the matter. She denies being involved in this. Abhay complains that the customs of the family are being broken. He advises her to have control over Astha. Anjali vows that she will never participate in Astha's plan.
In the evening, guests gather in the Agnihotri house. Anjali helplessly tries to contact Niranjan, whose phone is unreachable. Astha lies to her that Niranjan has given his nod for the party and if she does not attend it, it will be an insult for Niranjan. Anjali gets stuck in utter confusion.
When Niranjan enters the house, he becomes stunned seeing the arrangements. He becomes even angrier seeing Anjali coming down the stairs, dressed well for the party. Shlok reminds Niranjan that he called him and asked for permission. Niranjan cannot deny it.
Reporters gather around Niranjan and ask how he could manage such a nice arrangement for his wife, even after such a busy schedule. Astha says that Niranjan is a dutiful husband besides being a successful businessman.
Astha requests Niranjan to wish Anjali and deliver a speech for her. Niranjan becomes compelled to wish her, while his face clearly says that the result will be disastrous for Anjali.
Kalindi and Ajju enter the party while Jyoti waits inside the car. Abhay keeps close watch on Astha. When she tells Anjali that she will fulfill her wish on this day, he becomes dubious and goes outside to check what is happening.
Jyoti quickly hides herself seeing Abhay. Abhay cannot find anything and comes back. Astha takes Anjali out and calls Jyoti. Anjali sees Jyoti.

Most professionals at this career level have received on-the-job training and/or Bachelor's degrees. The projections for growth in this sector are better than average at 16% and the 485,000 jobs listed in 2012 are expected to swell by 78,200 from 2012 to 2022.Superintendent / Foreman and Supervisors
The median wage for front-line and on-site construction supervisors in 2013 was $60,380 per year ($29.03 hourly) and anticipated growth in this area is much faster than average at 22% (or even higher in some areas of the US). There are currently 546,000 of these types of positions across the country and 187,100 openings are projected to be created by 2022.Construction Engineer / Project Engineer
Engineers in the construction industry can expect to earn an average of $79,340 per year, or $38.14 per hour (as of 2013, civil engineers in particular earned an average wage of $85,640 per year). These positions require a Bachelor's degree and have a better than average outlook: the 272,900 jobs counted in 2012 are expected to expand 20% (53,700) by 2022.Construction Executives – President / CEO / VP
The senior leaders of construction companies can expect to be rewarded handsomely for their work. With an annual median wage of $171,610 ($82.50 hourly) as of 2013, the lucrative nature of this role offsets the gloomy outlook of slower than average growth at 3%–7%. As of 2012, there were 331,000 executives in the construction industry, and that number is expected to grow by 87,800 in 2022. Most professionals in these positions hold graduate degrees and many have advanced certifications as well.Cost Estimator
Although they may not receive the most compensation, cost estimators have the brightest outlook of any of the positions on this list. Their ranks are expected to grow by 26% from 2012–2022, which would add 53,000 positions to the current level of 202,200. Cost estimators can also find work in the manufacturing industry and claim median pay of $58,860 per year ($28.30 per hour). A Bachelor's degree is generally required for this occupation, but highly experienced construction workers may be able to qualify based solely on their industry expertise.Architect
Median pay for architects is $73,090 per year or $35.14 per hour. Although this occupation is projected to experience faster than average growth between 2012 and 2022 (17%), it's still a fairly exclusive club with only 107,400 architects currently employed nationwide and 18,600 new positions opening up over the next eight years. This field requires a Bachelor's degree and state licensure. Approximately 20% of architects are self-employed.Drafting / CAD
An Associate's degree is all that is needed to become a drafter or CAD specialist. However, this occupation has the worst outlook of any on this list with little to no change anticipated. There are 199,800 positions across the US currently, and only 2,200 are expected to be added by 2022.Contract Administrator
According to data from March 2014, salaries for contract administrators range from $61,000 to $82,000. Educational requirements vary depending upon the employer and scope of work, but most demand at least a Bachelor's degree in a particular subject area. Growth prospects for this role are average with a 10% expansion predicted between 2012 and 2022.Inspector
Median pay for inspectors is $53,450 per year or $25.70 per hour according to 2012 statistics. To get into the field requires a high school diploma and moderate on-the-job training, however, it's important to note that opportunities are rather limited. With the addition of 12,500 positions between 2012 and 2022, this field that currently boasts 102,300 professionals throughout the US is slated to experience only average growth.

Did she?
My grandmother didn't even finish highschool. She left to help her mother.
- YesVote A
- NoVote B
Most Helpful Guy
No, she didn't. Though I have to say that my country has a very different education system than the US and only a small percentage of people attend a college/university. My grandma was a kindergarten teacher, so she didn't have to go to college. She attended a special school which was back then called "teacher seminar". It was a type of higher education specially for people who want to become teachers or kindergarten teachers.
My other grandma comes from Greece and she grew up in extremely harsh circumstances. The way she grew up is practically unimaginable for somebody like me who's grown up in a rich, peaceful country. When my Greek grandma was a little child, Greece was occupied by the Italian fascists and a little later by the Nazis. She never tells me much about it. I've tried to ask her a couple of times because I study history and I find these sort of eye-witness stories extremely interesting. But usually she just says "It was horrible. I don't want to talk about it". Even my dad, her own son doesn't know much about her youth. One of the very few stories she told us once was that in her little village, a bunch of SS soldiers gathered all the villagers on the small market place. There, in the middle of the square were about 20 men kneeling, tied up and blindfolded. The men were Greek partisan fighters from that village who were trying to fight against the Nazi occupation. The SS soldiers made these men's wives and children (and all the other villagers) watch as they shot their husbands and dads and friends one by one. In the end, they made the wives clean up their husbands' bodies and bury them. I assume there must have been more experiences like that but my grandma never told us about them, I assume that some of them totally traumatized her. Because it was war and her family so incredibly poor (she said they were looking for berries and roots in the forest to eat), she couldn't go to school at first. But later, as a teenager, they moved to Athens and she somehow managed to attend a high school (Lyceum), which was absolutely not self-understanding during those days. It meant you were either very talented (which she was I think) or you had very good connections (I don't think she had those ;-)). She could have gone to University but she couldn't afford the tuition fee. So she ended up falling in love with my grandpa and moving to Switzerland, where she found a job.11|00|0

Dark-field microscopy is a well-known technique used to exclude the bright background of unscattered photons from a measurement. We show that by choosing an appropriate illumination angle, the background of unwanted scattered light can also be suppressed. The collected flux of scattered photons is calculated in the Mie scattering regime for various particle sizes and objectives over a range of illumination angles. In the case that the dark-field measurement is limited by background scattering, we find that the sensitivity can be improved by lowering the objective numerical aperture. The collected photon flux is calculated for an exemplary dark-field microscopy experiment in which lipid granules were studied within yeast cells. Our model suggests that the signal-to-noise ratio was over three-orders-of-magnitude higher than it would have been with an equivalent bright-field setup.

156 Min. | Action | February 2015
IMDB Rating: 6.2
Director: R.S. Durai Senthilkumar
Staring: Siva Karthikeyan, Sri Divya, Prabhu
Kaaki Sattai Review: Durai Senthilkumar after his Ethirneechal was expected to give another social issue oriented movie and he doesn't disappoint. Kaaki Sattai is all about a young ambitious cop trying to do his duty properly in a righteous way and the obstacle he face. Siva Karthikeyan as a cop may seem dumb but his portrayal is justified with enough background work. He did justify his role and it was appreciated. Sridivya comes as a girl-next-door character and it is very good that she too has scope in Kaaki Sattai considering other commercial movies where it is very tough for actresses to find some scope. She did pretty well and came out with a fine performance.
Prabhu's character is worth mentioning. Realistic role to say so. Characters and their development is another plus. Not too many unwanted developments that made the movie crisp. Fight scenes were good with not many unrealistic stunts and it was backed up by fine BGM which is a great plus for the movie. Placing of songs is done good and it doesn't lag the movie much. Screenplay could have been better which would have made Kaaki Sattai a must watch. Overall-a fine family entertainment backed up by a social message. Watch Kaaki Sattai, you won't be disappointed.

The promoters of B4U Television Network have further deferred their plans for an initial public offering (IPO) till the end of this year. According to sources, B4U may rope in fresh partners if the situation forces them to defer the IPO plans even further.
The company was initially scheduled to go public in the last quarter of 2001 but the event was pushed back because of the poor state of the stock market and weak public sentiment after the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. It was then decided that the IPO would be floated between July and September this year.
According to company sources, the size of the IPO is to be around Rs 100 crore and a premium is likely to be charged. A consultant and a merchant banker have already been appointed.
B4U Television Networks owns two channels, namely B4U Music and B4U Movies. This company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Mauritius-based company, B4U International Holdings. It is owned equally by the steel magnate, Mr Lakshmi N Mittal, Mr Gokul Binani of Binani Steel and Mr Kishore Lulla, owner of Eros International.
Of the two channels, B4U Movies will become a pay channel within the next two months. B4U Music will continue to operate as a free-to-air channel. Incidentally, both these channels had gone digital from the beginning.

My life is a bumpy road, there's so many rocks in my way I can't get through but for some odd reason I sometimes pass them. I'm not a big fan of detail but in this case I kinda I have to. I really hate admitting this but writing does help getting your feelings out, God knows I need to. It's better to start now than later because sooner or later it will eat you up. And maybe already has. So here we go. When I was seven years old my parents got divorced and it was really hard for me. For some reason my brother wasn't really there for me. Not physically but emotionally. Sometimes I think he doesn't really love me but I wouldn't know because he never talks to me. Me and my mom have a lot of differences. Every day when I was little we always fight and now I'm grown-up and I regret it. I look back now and fighting with my mom was really one of my biggest regrets of my life and I'm only 13. I do and will always love my mom and I hope she knows that. Now me and my dad we have a good relationship, like best friends. I will do anything for him and I know he will do anything for me. One day I'll write more but in these case I'm going to stop here.

Are Up For It!
"Art is the window to the soul", by Margaret Keane. My class of 2021 hadn't been on a field trip for a very long time now. So, I recommend to go to Philadelphia Museum of Art. It would be very informational and entertaining.
Going to Philadelphia Museum of Art is very amusing. Perhaps, the largest museum in the United States. This museum has a collection of more than 227,000 objects that includes world-class holding of European and American paintings, prints, drawings, & decorative arts. According to the main building is visited by more than 800,000 people per year, and is located at the west end of Philadelphia's Benjamin Franklin Parkway.
Now for the part that you been waiting for scholarly. Meanwhile, the early 1900's, the museum published its first collection handbook and admitted education program for the general public. In the meantime, it wasn't long before a membership program was in place, and plans for a new building gained strength in the following decade. Soon, in the 1920's director Fiske Kimball set the tone for a new era, and the opening of the new building on Fairmount-what is now the main building-opened with attendance record of one-million visitors in its first year.
Going to Philadelphia Museum of Art would be very informational and entertaining, that is why we should go there. So, are you up for it!?

This Wednesday (aka like 5 minutes ago), Michael Emerson appeared in an interview on G4's Attack of the Show. During his interview, he talked about the finale. He said that he's now looking forward to giving people answers about the show now that it's over. He also said that the finale, specifically the nature of the Flash-Sideways, could be interpreted as anything the audience wanted it to.
However, the most interesting thing he said was about the Season 6 DVD. He said that it would contain an extra scene that served as "the epilogue to the show" that "bridged the gap between Hurley becoming the protector of the Island" and the end of the episode.
So yeah. Feel free to post about your own theories as to what this "epilogue" may be. Personally, I hope that it's Hurley and Ben collecting Jack's body and giving it a proper burial, and maybe visiting Rose and Bernard and let them know what just happened. Maybe something with the Man in Black's remains as well. I also think that Desmond's future would be brought up.
Then again, maybe my idea for "The Sexy Adventures of Hugo Reyes" might be right.

We gather this morning for the solemn purpose of remembering the life and mourning the death of Rodney R. Burt. His sudden death has left us all a little shaken and empty.
We turn first today to the Word of God.
Rodney's Bible was marked at Psalm 103. We don't know if that is just where he was reading or whether this was a favorite passage. Either way, the words are appropriate,
8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious,
slow to anger, abounding in love.
9 He will not always accuse,
nor will he harbor his anger forever;
10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve
or repay us according to our iniquities.
11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his love for those who fear him;
12 as far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
13 As a father has compassion on his children,
so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;
14 for he knows how we are formed,
he remembers that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are like grass,
he flourishes like a flower of the field;
16 the wind blows over it and it is gone,
and its place remembers it no more.
17 But from everlasting to everlasting
the LORD's love is with those who fear him,
and his righteousness with their children's children—
18 with those who keep his covenant
and remember to obey his precepts.
The apostle Paul wrote these great words,
If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare His own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him? Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies; who is to condemn? . . . What shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness or peril or sword? . . . No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us"
Let's Pray,
Father it is hard to believe that one week ago we would not have dreamed we would be here today. A week ago Rod was active, having fun and seemingly the picture of health. The sudden change in events has swept us off our feet.
We need your help today. Give us the strength to go through this trial. Help us to celebrate Rodney's life even as we look to find a way to survive his death. In the midst of sadness help us to find hope and strength.
Lead us in our task this day for we ask it in Jesus' name. Amen.
Rodney R. Burt was born June 28, 1961 in LaHarpe, the son of Ronald and Donna Melvin Burt. From a very early age he was nicknamed "Yum Yum" because the first thing he would do when he was handed to someone was bite them!
Rod was a 1979 graduate of LaHarpe High School and served in the U.S. Air Force from 1980 – 1992. He was stationed most of the time in the state of Washington but did have tours in Japan and Alaska
He worked for ADM Grain in Burlington, Iowa as a truck driver. Prior to that job he drove for Barr Nunn. He was a member of the LaHarpe Masonic Lodge #195 and the LaHarpe Union Church. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and playing cards. He was an AVID fan of the Cubs and the Bears.
Rodney was 47 years old when he passed away Monday, November 24, 2008 at his home.
He is survived by one daughter, Elizabeth Rae Burt of Bellingham, Massachusetts,
his father, Ronald Burt of LaHarpe,
his mother, Donna Burt of LaHarpe,
one sister, Rena (Gary) Quigle of LaHarpe
and one brother, Roger Burt of Fallon, Nevada.
He was preceded in death by one sister, Rhonda Quigle, his grandparents and one niece.
As I have talked to people throughout the week about Rodney the same words kept coming up again and again: fun, likable, quiet, beer, loyalty, Democrat, Cubs, Bears, and friend.
Rodney grew up with a number of friends who remained his closest friends all his life. They played Whiffleball, football and anything else there was to do.
Rodney was involved in school. He wasn't an outstanding athlete but he did participate. He was a lineman on the school football team. I'm told on those runs around the golf course Rodney was usually at or near the end of the pack.
Rod was also on the Chess Team under Mr. Corey. Rodney liked to play chess but it always bugged him that he could never beat Marty. As everybody knew Rod was forever giving people a hard time. Even if you played chess with him he was always trying to get in your head by asking, "Are you sure you want to make that move?"
Rod enjoyed playing games, especially during the holidays with family. He was really good at Trivial Pursuit and enjoyed telling people (especially Brooke) that she was wrong.
Rod loved hanging out with Patches the family dog. In the winter he would sometimes hook him up to his sled and have the dog pull him while he did his paper route.
Rodney loved his siblings (though he would deny it publicly). Everyone knew that you didn't mess with Rod's brother or sisters or you would have to mess with him. As kids they had their fights but they always protected and defended each other — especially when it came to a confrontation with mom and dad. It sounds to me like Rhonda and Rodney were always up to something.
Ron remembers the day he noticed most of the half dollars had been taken out of the jug that had Pennies and half dollars in it. He sent the kids upstairs and then called for the oldest, Rhonda. He asked her what happened to the half dollars. Of course she knew nothing. Ron finally gave up with her. He sent her upstairs and brought Rodney down. He started by saying, "You're busted buddy, your sister gave you up." Rodney was furious and then told the whole story of how Rhonda was really the thief.
Ron said, "one of the things about Rod is that he would always tell you the truth but only if you asked the right question." He was not one to volunteer information.
Rod gave everybody nicknames. He called Rena "Ziffel" after Arnold Ziffel the pig on Green Acres. Rod was called Whippel which (depending on who you talk to) either had to do with a place where he liked to camp or the Grocer Mr. Whippel who could never resist squeezing the toilet paper! Rod was also known by some as Red Ears because anytime he got embarrassed his ears would turn beet red. I've been told that some of the nicknames he came up with should not be shared in polite company.
Rod loved hanging around his friends. He always gave them a hard time but he was a loyal friend. He would give you all kinds of grief when he saw you, but you always knew he cared about you. He would often invite you over for a beer. If you didn't drink he'd say, "That's O.K. you come over and I'll have a beer!"
Dave Clover remembers the time when they were teenagers. Dave had a car wreck outside of town and his car caught on fire. There were a bunch of people standing around Dave when Rod came running down the hill screaming "No, Clovis, No". Dave tapped him on the shoulder and Rod gave him a big bear hug and said you SOB you scared the daylights (he used another word) out of me!"
Rod was a compassionate guy. He cared about people. He was the kind of guy that could always lift your spirits. He was quiet and perhaps a little shy. Casual conversation was not his strong suit. You weren't going to get acquainted with him quickly but once you were his friend; you would remain his friend.
Rod was one of those guys who liked to hunt and fish with the guys but did it more for the company than the sport. Just last Sunday he had several opportunities to get a buck. He took a number of shots but never hit anything. It almost seemed like the deer knew it was safe to walk by Rod!
Rod took good care of his vehicles. He liked to have them clean. He also liked to play cards. He especially liked to play Pitch and Pinochle. Pinochle was the game he played the most in the military. Rod would go up to the Legion Hall and play with the guys there.
No matter what you were doing, it wouldn't take long before Rod would be talking about the Cubs or the Bears. He was ready to disown Roger ("Digger") because he didn't think the Cubs would win the World Series this last year. If you look around Rod's house you know that he was an AVID Cub and Bear fan. On Sunday afternoons when the Bears were playing, Rod would be at home in front of the television . . . no matter what. Once he went out duck hunting with the guys and brought his transistor radio with him because he wanted to listen to the Cub game! Every so often some of the guys would come to the house and Rod would ask if they wanted to watch a tape (it was of the 1985 Super Bowl the Bears won).
Last year Rod, Rena and Tammy took a road trip to Chicago. Rod decided to drive Grandma's Pontiac affectionately called the "Hoopty Doopty". The trip turned into quite the adventure filled with lots of laughter. After the Cub game Rod had his arms full of souvenirs when he remembered that Rena had his wallet. He wasn't happy. The whole trip home he kept saying "Hoorey Cow!" which was on a t-shirt giving Koske Fukodome, the Cub player from Japan a hard time.
Rod also had an avid interest in politics. If you got him started on politics you might just as well settle in because he was going to talk for awhile. You didn't have to wonder what political party he supported . . . .he was a Democrat and he felt if you had any sense you would be a Democrat also! Rod knew what he believed and why. He was an avid reader and loved to read all kinds of history books. He was quite a Civil War Buff.
Rod admittedly had a quick temper but he got over it just as quickly. Through the years his temper got him in trouble more than once. Those who knew Rod knew he would soon have his smile back. When he was working on a project you would often hear him say, "Murphy Again". It was a reference to Murphy's Law: "Anything that can go wrong – will go wrong." He was a character.
Rod loved his daughter. There was a period when Elizabeth traveled with her dad in the truck. I suspect it is no secret that Rod's biggest disappointment in life was his divorce. He regretted not being a bigger part of Elizabeth's life. Rod was always good with kids. He knew how to relate to them. He was sad that he missed much of that opportunity with his own daughter.
Rodney Burt worked hard in life. He served his country faithfully. He was a good friend, a loyal son, a caring brother, a loving dad, and was one of those guys you could always count on. He will be greatly missed.
Many years ago Rhonda wrote down the lyrics to this song made famous by Frankie Lane way back in 1953. They seem appropriate for today.
I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray someone will come to show the way
I believe, I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe.
There are a number of reasons for a Funeral Service. The first reason is that it helps us deal with the reality of death. Especially in a situation like this, it is hard for us to grasp the fact that Rod has died. Seeing his body and sitting here talking about him helps make it all a little more real. It's hard but it is necessary.
Second, a funeral service provides an opportunity to grieve and to find comfort from friends. Loss is hard. It is especially hard when it is someone who seems much too young to die. Grief is a process that must be faced. This is the place to begin that process. Grief only begins here . . . but it must begin. We grieve over things that were said or not said; things we did or didn't do; we grieve over memories shared and anticipated memories we will never get to share. Grief is natural, fitting, and appropriate.
This is a place where friends gather to grieve together. Tears communicate what words cannot say. A warm hug says "I love you" and "I ache with you" more effectively than any words we can say. The presence of family and friends testifies to the fact that Rodney mattered. His life counted. He will be missed by more than just a few.
The third purpose of a funeral service is to focus on eternal things. As we stand here it is only natural to ask, "Is this all there is?"
You may not know this but Rodney had a strong faith. His Bible was open next to his bed. Just a couple of days before he died he had purchased a picture of the Last Supper and a picture of Jesus. He hadn't even had the chance to put them up. Rod knew what he believed and was unashamed of his beliefs.
It's true that Rodney probably didn't fit your image of a person who had a deep faith. But then most of the people Jesus called in the Bible didn't fit the image either.
The Bible speaks clearly about life beyond the grave. It tells us that none of us are good enough to earn Heaven. Not a single one of us. It says that this is the reason Jesus came to earth. He came to point us to God and to pay (with His own life) for the sin and rebellion of our lives. The reason he was able to do this was because He was God. His life was a fitting and worthy trade for all the sin you and I had committed.
According to the Bible those people who stop running from God; those who seek Him and are willing to entrust themselves to Jesus . . . they will live even though they die. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man can come to the Father except by men".
In any political campaign, candidates make all kinds of promises. Often you hear people say, "You must look at his record if you want to know what he really believes". It's a pretty good guideline. We can apply this to Christ.
Anyone can say they can make us right with God. Anyone can tell you that if you believe in them, you will live even though you die. The reason I believe what Jesus promises is because of His record. He lived a life that was unlike any other that has ever lived. He did things that were supernatural. He taught things that cut to the core of who we are as human beings. He loved people the rest of the world had already discarded. When He was attacked he did not retaliate. He was brutally killed on trumped up charges yet as He hung on the cross He asked God to forgive those who had put Him there. He was a man like none other.
But there is more. There have been good people who lived on earth (most of the truly good ones were His followers). What makes Jesus worth following is His record. He came back from the dead! He was seen by hundreds of people. He talked to the disciples, He ate with them. He convinced them that they were not hallucinating but were spending time with the Savior of the world. They believed it so much that they too were willing to give their lives rather than deny Him. In my studies I have become convinced that the evidence of His resurrection is solid and compelling. Over the years many sincere scholars have set out to disprove the Resurrection only to become one of His followers.
Jesus promised that those who put their trust and confidence in Him. Those who are willing to follow Him in life will also follow Him in death and resurrection. Jesus said He would prepare a place for us.
I don't know what Rod's beliefs were. I wish I did. However what I do know is that if he sincerely trusted Jesus Christ, then he is with Him in Heaven. When he died on Monday morning he moved from
Death and decay to life and wholeness
From questions to answers
From separation to reunion
From wondering if God could love Him to knowing that He does
From a temporary body to an imperishable body
And who knows maybe he has even moved to a place where he can finally do something to help those Cubs.
Whenever someone in the prime of life dies it gives us all a wake-up call. One of the reasons we are here today is to face these eternal issues in our own lives. We tend to put off thinking about such things because we all believe we have "plenty of time". Today we are reminded that there are no guarantees. Now is the time to ask ourselves if we are willing to believe and follow Jesus. Now is the time for us to examine His record and make our decision. Ultimately, no issue in life is more important than this one.
So I encourage you to tell your stories. Grab a beer and celebrate the life of Rodney Burt. That's what he would want you to do. Comfort each other. Use this as an opportunity to tell other people how much they mean to you. But I hope you will also dare to take a look behind the curtain of death and dare to ask "What happens when we die?" Deep down inside I think we all know that there must be more than what we experience here on earth. The idea that we live, we die, and then that's it, makes life pretty meaningless. I encourage you to look for more. I encourage you to start your search with Jesus. Rodney was looking at eternal issues. I encourage you to do so as well.
Now as we depart from this place let us give thanks to God for someone who touched our lives. Thank God for Rodney and
- The many smiles
- The nicknames
- The warm friendship
- His rock solid support
- His sharp mind
- His work ethic
- His absence of ego
- His laid back nature
- His sense of values
- And His die-hard love of the Cubs and Bears
Rodney was a good guy. We can learn from his life . . . and his death.
Father, we want to thank you for Rod's life. Over the course of the last week we've asked You questions and maybe even made some accusations. You know we have said these things because we are hurting. Thank you for blessing us with the life of Rodney Burt. Help us to remember him and to learn from him. Please welcome him into that place you have prepared for Him in accordance with your mercy and your grace.
Help this family as they grieve. Help them to make the necessary adjustments. Draw them close to each other. Surround them with friends who will grieve with them.
Help us also as we face our own mortality. Help us to find the truth about life beyond the grave. Help us to find the truth about You. Use this time of pain to awaken us to your love. I ask this all in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Rihanna Swims With Sharks in Skimpy Silver Swimsuit (PHOTOS)
Rihanna to boast yet another itty-bitty bathing suit. The "We Found Love" singer is once again enjoying a sunny vacation, and this time she's in Hawaii.Just because it's considered a one-piece, doesn't mean it's not sexy! Leave it to
RiRi, 23, was spotted in a silver monokini on Tuesday while embarking on a shark adventure. The pop star was so excited about her new suit that she took to her Twitter to post some pics. She captioned the photos, writing:
"Wake…Bake…#CAKE," only to later tweet to a fan, "@MzCprettyFly just for u."
Following her Hawaiian adventure, RiRi wrote: "Swimming with Sharks is one of my favorite things I've ever done."

Eriadu was the primary world in the Seswenna sector, and one of the Outer Rim's most active trade centers. It sat on the intersection of several hyperspace routes, including the Rimma Trade Route, the Hydian Way, the Lipsec Run, and the Yankirk Route.
The planet had originally been on the Eriadu Bypass until the Hydian Way was remapped to run through Eriadu (reflecting economic realities) rather than Seswenna. It was an important launch point for ships headed to the Moddell sector, such as the colony ship Free Enterprise in 130 BBY.
Eriadu was covered in rugged landmasses and small seas. Its surface was full of dirty industry and waste zones that polluted its atmosphere, land and sea. The world remained in this polluted state because its legislators were more interested in expanding the planet's urban sprawl to match that of other city worlds like Coruscant rather than investing in atmosphere scrubbers, aquifer purifiers and waste disposal systems.
Major cities on Eriadu included its capital, Eriadu City, Phelar and Old Town Factoryville. The planet was also mentioned to have forests. Eriadu was orbited by one natural moon, small shipyards, and several orbital habitats.
Eriadu was settled by Human colonists during the Galactic Republic era, prior to the Jedi Civil War. Eriaduan men tended to wear turbans and beards while women were veiled. Notable Eriaduans included the Tarkin family which played a role in the history of the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire. Many if not all Eriaduans were also Humanocentric. The Eriaduan accent was distinctive.

First measurements of Earth's core radioactivity
EARTH'S natural radioactivity has been measured for the first time. The measurement will help geologists find out to what extent nuclear decay is responsible for the immense quantity of heat generated by Earth.
Our planet's heat output drives the convection currents that churn liquid iron in the outer core, giving rise to Earth's magnetic field. Just where this heat comes from is a big question. Measurements of the temperature gradients across rocks in mines and boreholes have led geologists to estimate that the planet is internally generating between 30 and 44 terawatts of heat.
Some of this heat comes from the decay of radioactive elements. Based on studies of primitive meteorites known as carbonaceous chondrites, geologists have estimated Earth's uranium and thorium content and calculated that about 19 terawatts can be attributed to radioactivity. But until now there has been nothing definitive about exactly how much uranium there is in the planet, says geologist Bill McDonough of the University of Maryland in College Park. "There are fundamental uncertainties."
There is one way to lessen this uncertainty, and that is to look for antineutrinos. These particles are the antimatter equivalent of the uncharged, almost massless particles called neutrinos and are released when uranium and thorium decay to form lead. If antineutrinos are being created deep within the planet they should be detectable, because they can pass through almost all matter.
Now, the KamLAND antineutrino detector in Kamioka, Japan, has counted such antineutrinos. An international team of scientists analysed the data and found about 16.2 million antineutrinos per square centimetre per second streaming out from Earth's core. They calculate that the nuclear

Overview Edit
The General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) is the first multilateral trade agreement on services. The GATS covers all services except services supplied in the exercise of governmental authority. The sectoral classification generally used to schedule commitments under the GATS (document MTN.GNS/W/120) contains eleven main services sectors and one residual "other" category. These are business, communication, construction, distribution, educational, environmental, financial, health-related and social, tourism and travel-related, recreational cultural and sporting, and transport services. These sectors are further divided into sub-sectors and, in some cases, sub-sub-sectors.
Trade in services is defined in terms of four modes of supply: (1) Cross-border supply, whereby, for example, domestic consumers purchase telecommunications services from a supplier in another country; (2) Consumption abroad, whereby consumers consume services abroad, sometimes by physically moving to the location of the suppliers, as in the case of tourism services, or by sending their property abroad, as in the case of ship repair services; (3) Commercial presence, whereby, for example, a foreign bank or transport company establishes a branch or subsidiary in the territory of a country and supplies services; and (4) Movement of natural persons, whereby, for instance, natural persons supply consultancy or construction service in the territory of a foreign Member country.
The GATS aims at negotiating a legally binding set of commitments to enhance predictability and provide transparency under the principle of progressive liberalization. The GATS framework consists of: (i) rules and obligations laid down in the GATS; (ii) annexes on specific sectors and subjects including an annex on telecommunication services; and (iii) national schedules of market access and national treatment commitments and lists of MFN exemptions.
The most important of the general obligations under the GATS are MFN (most favored nation) (Article II) and transparency (Article III). They apply across the board to all services sectors, although exemptions to the MFN obligation in specific sectors were permitted at the time of entry into force of the agreement, and such exemptions, in principle, should not extend beyond 10 years. Specific obligations are related to market access and national treatment (Articles XVI and XVII, respectively). They apply only to services that are inscribed in the Schedules of Commitments of countries where specific commitments on market access and national treatment are listed in the form of limitations or measures applicable. Such limitations may be either horizontal (cross-sectoral) or sector-specific, and are listed for each of the four modes of supply. Moreover, Article XVIII offers the possibility for countries to inscribe additional commitments not dealt with under the two previous articles.

Why Teen Bride Courtney Stodden Keeps Getting Banned From Facebook
Courtney Stodden, the 17-year-old bride of 51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison, has apparently had her Facebook page pulled. And it's not the first time it's happened.
Courtney Stodden, the 17-year-old bride of 51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison, has apparently had her Facebook page pulled. And it's not the first time it's happened.
Being a zombie on Facebook seems a lot more appealing than being one in real life. And thanks to AMC, it's super easy.
In fact, all you have to do to get a highly-detailed zombie version of yourself is visit the Facebook page for the AMC series 'The Walking Dead.'
Get your crops ready, hayseeds — there might be a FarmVille movie coming. As one of the most popular video games probably ever, the scourge of Facebook is about to hit the silver screen thanks to screenwriters Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen.
During Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg's "Look At This Awesome Thing We Did" talk at the F8 developer conference in San Francisco, he made sure to explain how much users are going to love the new Timeline feature that some people noticed a few days prior to the conference and kind of hated.
Despite the whining about the launch of their "top stories" feature this week, Facebook unveiled and even bigger change at the company's F8 developer conference in San Francisco: Timeline.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that profile pages will soon automatically put photos, videos, status updates and status changes in chronological order. The timeline will also feature a "way back" section, which allows users to insert material from their pre-Facebook days.
Our new afternoon guys, Nick and Drew, were just talking about this. The story comes from Fox News about a 19 year old dude that got arrested after bragging about his crime on Facebook! The guy outran deputies on his motorcycle and then was dumb enough to boast about it on his Facebook page! More after the jump.
Facebook has been taking a lot of heat lately for their privacy controls, or lack there of. With each new feature that they come up with, there is always a concern for lack of privacy. Well the people at Facebook are stepping up and are updating the privacy features for their site, and giving the users even more control over what is/is not public on Facebook. What exactly are these changes? Keep reading to find out.
A study by technology research firm Gartner, which recently surveyed 6,295 people between the ages of 13 and 74, reveals almost a quarter of 18- to 29-year-olds use social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter less than when they first signed up for the services, with many saying the services simply aren't that much fun anymore.
"The trend shows some social media fatigue among early adopters," says Brian Blau, research director at Gartner. "And the fact that 31 percent of younger consumers indicated that they were getting bored with their social network is a situation that social media providers should monitor, as they will need to innovate and diversify to keep consumer attention."
A new study suggests that using Facebook too much triggers the development of anti-social behavior in teenagers.
Technically, Dallas city workers aren't allowed to do personal business when they are on the taxpayer's dime.
Which is why two dozen workers at Dallas' city hall are in hot water after a probe revealed that they were spending a good chunk of their day on Facebook.
Can it be true? It is all over Facebook and Twitter, so it has to be true. Did the Tiger blood cease to flow through the veins of Charlie Sheen? The heart of the 45-year-old former Two and a Half Men star seems to have stopped just as he was starting to win. Read on to find out the truth.
The age of Big Brother is truly upon us.
Last week the Federal Trade Commission approved a company called Social Intelligence, which touts itself as a modern way for firms to screen potential employees.

"Excellent service all round."
About: Barnsley Hospital Barnsley Hospital Barnsley S75 2EP
Posted by David Ryans
Anything else?
I was admitted to A&E as an emergency aftercollapsing due complications with a previous surgery... )at a different hospital). I was taken to a cubicle immediately. The doctor was there within minutes to examine me and before long the pain was controlled. I was treated with care and dignity throughout and can not fault all concerned from the ambulance crew that took me there, the nurses, doctors and the 2nd ambulance crew that transferred me to a specialist hospital. Whilst in A&E two drunken men came started fighting. Security was called and were on the scene quickly. The fighting was stopped and security stayed in the area should it start again. The nurses and doctor cared for these two men, even though they continued being verbally abusive to each other and one was verbally abusive to the nurse as he thought he had been waiting too long. them. They had no thought for other patients with their shouting and behaviour. Personally, I would have turfed them both out, but of course, that isn't what nursing is about. Excellent service and a big thank you to you all.
