Hi guys,this is Acenitro.I made an idea of next installment of the king of fighters.Enjoy
After the events of Ash disappearance,Shion the last member of those from the past hosted KOF tournament.Chizuru Kagura heard about next tournament and told to Kyo and Yagami.She also sensed that Shion is trying to bring back Saiki to existence.Kyo called Benimaru and Daimon to help him while both Iori and Kagura called Shingo to help them.Duo Lon felt that Saiki haven't finished yet.He called Shen and Elizabeth but she refused to come.Instead Oswald joined him.
The gameplay and sprites are same like King of Fighter Xiii for example
- Special moves have a "normal" or "stronger" version. The stronger versions are called EX Special Move and EX Super Special Move respectively. EX attacks can perform tasks such as adding an extra frame of invincibility, boosting the normal attack speed, adding more hits, and other factors to a character's techniques. The use of EX techniques results in a partial drain of the power gauge.
- A feature called the "Triple Cancel" allows players to unlimitedly cancel their character's moves to their whim. The ability to do so relies on the "Hyper Drive Gauge" that's above the power gauge, gradually draining it as the players cancel their moves.
- Hyper Drive Mode" is a tricky feature that can only be done once the Hyper Drive Gauge is at maximum. It's possible for players to perform an unlimited amount of Triple Cancels at the precise moment the gauge is filled. Although the effect is short and temporary, the feature allows otherwise unlinkable techniques to be used in one combo. Triple Cancels and Hyper Drive Mode are both callbacks to the systems introduced in The King of Fighters 2002, such as the Free Cancel.
- When a player is in Hyper Drive Mode and has three power stocks, they can perform a powerful technique called "Neo Max Desperation Move". Players can also link a Neo Max technique into a combo, which is dubbed "Max Cancel".
- During a fight against a CPU opponent, players can be awarded a big boost of extra points if they end a match with a Regular, EX or Neo Max desperation move. It also triggers a special splash screen for their victory blow.
- King and Yuri can have their tops ripped off (as in Art of Fighting, Art of Fighting 2, The King of Fighters '94 and The King of Fighters '95) when K.O.'d by special, EX and Desperation moves.
- A complete story consists of eight stages, six being spent against teams and two being saved for the final matches.
- The Story Mode returns with a scoring system. When fighting against a CPU opponent, players are challenged to complete a random objective during stages, called Target Actions. Completing these can award bonus points at the scoring screen. Meeting certain actions can also reward players the next round by filling up their power gauge or Hyper Drive Guage. Objectives include goals such as completing a certain amount of hits within one combo, successfully hitting the CPU with a desperation technique (including EX and Neo Max desperation moves or specials), or being asked to perform a certain attack within 10 seconds.

"My broken ankle"
About: Dewsbury & District Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics Dewsbury & District Hospital Trauma and orthopaedics WF13 4HS Dewsbury Health Centre / Podiatry Dewsbury Health Centre Podiatry Dewsbury WF13 1HN
Posted by Sheer191 (as ),
I injured my ankle in a fall. I left it a while before I called the GP. I called the GP surgery and spoke to the doctor, as I could stand on my foot the doctor didnt think it was broken and advised me to elevate my leg and rest it for a week and see if there is any improvement.
I then had a previously scheduled appointment at the podiatrist (I attend every three months) Deb did my usual treatment I receive their and in conversation I mentioned my ankle. Deb then decided to examine my ankle and said I should have an x-ray, I explained to her that my doctor had advised I didnt need one, but from the examination Deb said I had no flexibility in my ankle at all and an x-ray would be needed.
I then made an appointment with my G. P and was then referred to have an x-ray at the Hospital.
My x-ray showed that I had a broken ankle and it would take 8 weeks to repair, I think without Deb my G. P wouldnt have sent me.
While at the Hospital my experience was very positive I had a quick referal and did not have to wait long for my appointment at all I was very happy with the service.
As I had a pot on to help heel my ankle I had to return to Hospital again and during this they refered me to the Physio where I am undergoing therapy for my ankle. This service is also fantastic and I really couldn't praise the NHS more, I see what happened with my G. P as a slight oversight and I am not holding it against them I do not attend very often anyway but have found when I do my experience to be pleasant.
I would like to say a big thank you to all services I have used but mostly I would like to thank Deb she is so nice and helpful, and really does go the extra mile. Thank you Deb non of this could have took place if it wasnt for your inital examination and your advice on the next steps to take.
Response from Gemma Fowler, Integrated Governance Clinical Manager, Locala Community Partnerships 4 years ago
Hi Sheer 191
Thanks for leaving this feedback on Patient Opinion. You mention a variety of services in your posting and it's great to see that you have been happy with all the NHS care provided. With regards to Locala podiatry, I have passed on your feedback to Debs' manager and to our communications lead so that Deb and her efforts can be recognised in our Locala newsletter; so your comments about Deb will appear in there too.

I have taught for multiple online MBA programs and am a tenured associated professor of finance at the University of Puerto Rico.

An Introduction to Adjunct Online University Teaching
I have to admit that I am a big fish in a small pond. I have obtained the highest possible credential in my field and had decades of teaching experience before I went into this.
My experience and prestige of credentials have allowed me to explore the online adjunct university profession from top to bottom.
I am here to take you by the hand. I am here to keep you out of trouble!
Why Adjunct Online University Teaching is Important
How would $6,000 in additional income change your live? How about $25,000 or more?
These amounts are completely reasonable to earn from online universities.
The additional monthly income is not the only important aspect of this topic. The freedom to work from home or anyplace with an internet connection is a big bonus. And the importance of this topic does not stop there.
Working from home as an adjunct online university instructor gives you freedom of scheduling your time as you see fit!
Who This Course Is For
The course is for individuals holding graduate degrees from good schools who seek additional monthly income.
How You Benefit from This Course
The three main benefits of this course are the ability to use your graduate degree to …
These three benefits are very important to me and my family.
At The End of This Course You Will Be Able to Do
In This Course, You Will Learn
A Doc Brown pioneered approach to getting your first paid academic online adjunct job.
A student rebellion at the University of Puerto Rico forced Dr. Scott Brown to seek temporary employment with online universities. This experience made him a believer in online distance higher learning. Today he has over five years of nearly 365-day experience with online teaching programs in finance and financial accounting at American Military University , Southern New Hampshire University , Colorado Technical University , and Kaplan University. This makes him uniquely qualified to teach you how to find useful bill paying additional monthly income as an online adjunct university instructor .
Linda has many years of experience as on online adjunct professor. She has created a unique nurturing environment that has garnered her accolades. Mrs. Gilbertie explains her entry into the field.
Daniel explains how useful this course would have been when he had freshly graduated from Texas Tech School of Law . This course allows you to recycle your graduate degree. And you will discover a unique way to work from home.
I often times hear sad tales of households that can barely pay their bills. This is particularly painful to hear when it comes from a friend who holds a graduate degree of some sort.
I went to good schools. I simply expect to be able to teach if, when, and from where I want.
That is how I approach teaching today. Nearly all of my instruction is in the form of online multi-media non-synchronous education.
Even as I type this a group of my 7,394 students is studying my material somewhere in some of the 132 countries in which my learning community members live.
That said, most of my students live in the United States. This is because the United States leads the world in online education.
And our universities are the pioneers in distance learning in higher education.
If you are well trained with a sound graduate degree, there may be thousands of students eager to learn from you. This is especially so if you are a compassionate yet results oriented adjunct instructor.
This course is focused on helping you with teaching online at universities that may or may not have brick and mortar operations. Brick and mortar teaching as an adjunct can expand your monthly income.
You should look into brick and mortar adjunct teaching opportunities in conjunction with this course. The same curriculum vitae and cover letter will work.
Qualifications with regard to adjunct teaching at online universities are clear-cut. The most important by far is the prestige of your degree.
The most prestigious schools from which to earn a degree are household names. They may be hard or even impossible for you to earn a degree from.
This include schools like Harvard, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford, or The University of California at Berkeley.
I hold a Ph.D. from the University of South Carolina on the main campus in the state capital city of Columbia. The undergraduate program ranks #108 in the US News and World Report.
IMPORTANT STEP: Use the US News and World Report of colleges and universities to rank your degrees.
That's pretty good considering that there are a total of 4,140 U.S. Colleges and Universities offering undergraduate universities.
Hence the undergraduate program of the school where I obtained my highest degree is in the top 5% of schools in my country.
I obtained my finance Ph.D. degree from the Darla Moore School of Business. This school ranks #1 in international business and 96th overall. The school is also AACSB accredited.
In business this is the highest accreditation.
I also hold a master of international business management degree and a biology undergraduate degree from highly competitive schools. Indiana University at Bloomington is ranked 75th in undergraduate degrees. The top ranking alternates between the University of South Carolina and Thunderbird.
My degree from the Thunderbird Graduate School of International Management is ranked 54th best overall and 1st in international business.
Because of my heavy investment in a high quality education I get online teaching assignments easily. Assess each of your degrees in terms of ranking and competitiveness now and put it into your CV.
Then look for any situation that you can claim you have teaching experience. I don't care if it is teaching Sunday school.
Put it down.
And third, and least important is your actual experience. The education system relies on your credentials most in the form of the quality of your degree.
Clean and re-organize your resume to feature the quality of your education. Be very cautious of expending time on degrees that are poorly rated.
An example is that of Capella University. The program offers online Ph.D. degrees in education with lax entrance and exit requirements that is somewhere close to a diploma mill.
The program is so weak that it is not even ranked on the U.S. News and World Report. Don't waste your precious time and heard earned money on this poor of a degree. Nobody will respect your credentials if you do.
The best school in terms of enjoyable to work with pays me $130 per student for each 3 credit undergraduate course. For MBA courses they pay me $150 per student.
This is the pay-by-student compensation contract. You must use a time and motion study to convert this value to an hourly wage.
I have known some adjunct instructors who believed they could negotiate better pay. I have never found this to be so. Take it or leave it.
If the pay does not cover your expenses, while another does, or eats up your time don't teach for the school. To determine if the school eats up your time you must perform a time and motion study.
This is a simple spreadsheet where you document the hours you spend each day working as an online adjunct professor.
Then you can see clearly if working for the school is worth it. After a few months you will have an accurate calculation of your hourly wage.
Another online MBA program paid me $2,500 total for teaching over a 10-week period. This also has to be converted to an hourly wage.
Here is the secret to becoming a success as an online university adjunct instructor.
Teach for as many schools as you can handle at the beginning. Then you can prune once you have calculated your hourly wages for each school after working through months of data.
Cut away your worst paying schools.
The trick to landing your first job is to convert your resume into a curriculum vita. There is a big difference between the two.
The resume focuses on managerial and technical skills.
The curriculum vitae focuses on academic degrees, research publications, and teaching skills for a tenure track position. But you are not seeking a tenure track position.
You want to be an adjunct instructor.
Hence research is not as important as soft skills such as good rapport with students. To do this take your best university degrees and move them to the top of your resume.
Rewrite all of your job experience from the perspective of training and teaching. Instead of writing that you managed a team you should write that you trained and taught them as team leader.
Give any evidence that shows that you are pleasant to work with.
Make sure you rewrite your objective as that you have a great desire to teach students and have lots of teaching experience. Make it clear that you are a great teacher.
Then work down into your cover letter.
Use this real estate to emphasize (1) your academic credentials and how they match the job. Then explain (2) your teaching experience and how you can contribute to the departmental faculty of the online university.
Write a cover letter and even go so far as customize your curriculum vitae for each job you apply for. Do not send hundreds of resumes and cover letters. Focus on a few applications at a time.
You are trying to join the right team as well as get your first job teaching online.
The more you understand the business of offering your time in return for pay as an online adjunct professor the easier it will be to deal with interviews. In the meantime, do your best to land interviews by (1) sending the CV and cover letter material and then (2) making assertive (non-aggressive) follow up contact by email and if possible phone.
Make sure that your academic background matches the field you want to teach.
If you have a Doctor of Education Ed.D. degree, with no math courses in your transcripts do not apply to teach finance courses. You will not get hired no matter how much you are interested in investments. This degree would qualify you to teach non-math management courses.
An unusual aspect of getting interviewed for an online position is that they are done by phone interview. That is why it is worthwhile to have a great photo in your resume and cover letter.
Make sure you are smiling in the photo.
If you do not have one make sure that you take advantages of all photo ops when you go on your next cruise. Simply pick the best at the end.
When you have the phone interview get a small mirror and smile into the mirror as you go through the interview. Ditto if you interview through Skype.
There is a tremendous amount of training to make you competent inside the online teaching system. The teaching shells operate in a blog environment.
If you have experience running a WordPress blog, you will notice similarities.
A lot of systems are based on BlackBoard or Sakai. Either way you will end up mastering a wide array of teaching platforms.
The major components of every online teaching platform are …
There are many federal laws that regulate how each of the sections above are managed. You are required to know all of the rules and regulations.
This is why you have to do unpaid training before your first paid assignment. Don't grumble, just do it!
Build a group of online universities you teach for. Don't forget you can use everything I am teaching you here to get a job as a brick and mortar adjunct.
A great idea is to take your newly converted resume into a teaching curriculum vitae and cover letter into all of the local community colleges in your area.
A community college is a great place to start getting hands on teaching experience. I started as an adjunct instructor three decades ago in Reno high up in the state of Nevada.
I landed that job before I had a Ph.D.
All I had then was an international MBA from a top school. That was enough to teach at the community college level.
And it was fun!
A big part of getting into the grove is recognizing how powerful this is. I have found it easy for myself to make $12,000 per year after I pay my online teaching assistant.
That equates to an extra $500 - $1,000 in income per month. Double that if you do not have to split your income with a non-family teaching assistant.
And that pays a lot of bills. I earn this with a very light teaching load of no more than 3 courses between two online MBA university business schools.
I am gradually weaning down my adjunct teaching load as my campus grows on Udemy. This is a good thing since as I make more money on Udemy I can focus on my full time position at the University of Puerto Rico.
My experience as an online adjunct professor has allowed me to grow into a Udemy instructor!
There are three core areas of tech you must build into your home office. Put your home office in a spare room, the basement, or the attic where people will not disturb you.
I find that I get into a flow when teaching online.
I need to be able to go for an hour or two. I do not like to be disturbed.
Make sure that you have (1) high speed broadband internet, (2) Microsoft Office with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, the (3) same audiovisual setup as that recommended by Udemy.
Make sure that you have a cable modem with at least 100 MegaBytes (MB) per second download and 9 MB per second upload. The higher the better.
I am soon moving up to 200 down and the fastest I can get up.
Then make sure that you have the full Microsoft suite of Office basic. These are the programs the students will use to create homework. They will send these to you in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents.
Many schools are making their adjunct professors upload instructional videos. The easiest way to make sure you have the best equipment is to look at what is recommended on Udemy. Right now I am using a Logitech C920 Webcam and an iRig HD Mic.
If you can produce videos that rock the socks off of the Udemy reviewers, you won't have a problem with any of the online universities.
Make sure you set out from the start to develop friendships. Don't forget that the directors of the online teaching programs who supervise you started where you are.
If they like you they will tell you about other opportunities.
They may even recommend you. There is nothing like an open door to walk through!
Networking with other online adjunct professors has another distinct advantage. You can hear both the pros and the cons of other schools.
But be careful.
There are schools I like to teach for that some of my adjunct friends do not. And vice versa.
Make sure that you remain completely open minded in the beginning. This will allow you to adjust your strategy from a broad experience base.
I was warned at the beginning from a kind hearted director at an online MBA program where I taught finance. He explained that I should be very careful about taking on new classes once I had a stable core.
You can get burned if the adjunct instructor who creates the shell for your online university course makes mistakes that disgruntle your students.
This occurred when I taught a short term financial management course with a bad shell. The two admins above me were able to close the course and the system to my student review detriment.
The lesson is that you have to be stern with admin when it comes to creating a safe teachable shell. That is their job. You really need to hold their feet to the fire on this.
Test your knowledge now!
Here is a well-kept secret that many professors and adjuncts do not understand: It is all about the student and not about you. That means that you do not ever get mad at students.
If you will keep this philosophy in mind you will become a huge success.
Study the ways of the greatest teachers in written human history. You will come to see that the most learning occurs when students are not stressed out about anything irrelevant to mastery of the content of the course.
The way to keep students focused on the relevant aspects of course material is to always work from a rubric.
A rubric is developed on a task by task basis from the course syllabus. It is a contractual stepwise code of conduct that both you and the student must follow.
A good rubric reduces uncertainty, confusion, and conflict between you and your students.
The rubric allows you to chunk down a major objective into digestible pieces that are easy for students to follow. The good news is that the online university you work for will provide a rubric — most of the time. You need to recognize that you may need to improve upon the rubric you receive.
If you do make sure you transmit the new document to your team.
One of the advantages of online university adjunct teaching is that you don't have to work in the same physical location with other faculty members. But this is also a disadvantage when it comes to teaching a new course.
Be cautious when taking on new courses if you already are in the groove.
If you do take on a new course, make sure you check to see if the shell is set up properly. If it has the wrong material drop the course immediately with a note explaining why.
Do not consider teaching the course again until the shell is right.
You might even tell your administrators that the course will be on probation. That will give you time to see if it works.
The online university will always be asking for more of your time for the same pay. That is why you have to do a thorough time and motion study of each teaching situation you find yourself in.
If you can show that you really do not have time for a trivial task you can fight back with evidence.
But more frequently the situation is in reverse. The online adjunct professor is doing too little work.
Make sure you know exactly how much feedback you have to give on homework problems. Know how much they want you to write in response to student discussion board postings.
This will allow you to incorporate the full process into your time and motion study.
You will know your exact hourly wage based on the amount of work required to perform your duties. If you find that your hourly pay is too low show your supervisors the evidence.
If they do not help you adjust your workload, then it is time to move on to another online university.
Have you ever had a professor who says, "I keep the A grade for myself?" My immediate response has always been to stand up, walk out of the class to the registrar, and withdraw.
This kind of philosophy is one that is intolerant of error.
And the reality is that the industry is all about dealing with error. So I allow my students to try and fail and still get an A.
The "easy" way to do this is to let your students redo their homework mistakes for full credit. When you announce to your students that you have a policy that lets them learn from their mistakes and still earn 100% you have their attention.
This is one way to automatically guarantee that you will have above average student reviews.
And your student reviews are what induce the online university administration to keep hiring you back. So if you want to keep working year after year at the same online university find ways like this to make your students love you!
Sluggish internet is a serious problem for an adjunct online university instructor. Every second you have to wait for the screen to load is time wasted.
Make sure you run periodic speed tests on your download and upload speeds.
Right now I operate with 100 MB down and 9 MB up. I am going to move to 200 down and hopefully more than 9 up soon.
But don't stop there. A big source of internet problems is caused by voltage fluctuations through the modem.
There is a simple solution to this complex problem.
Get a high quality, that means more rather than less expensive, universal power source (UPS). I purchased mine from Best Buy.
Protect your modem from voltage fluctuations and you will protect your precious internet speed!
The biggest shock to my system was shifting my workload into a cyber learning community at the higher learning academic level. This meant that all of my actions in the system were suddenly monitored.
The most important metric for administrators is the level of interaction you have with your students.
The is measured by (1) speed and (2) length of communication. Speed of your response is more important for personal messages between you and your students.
The length of your response is more important on discussion board interactions. This doesn't mean that you have to have lengthy responses to all discussion board posts.
But it does mean that the admins want to see lengthier responses to some student posts.
You will have to find your happy balance between speed and length of response in the different scenarios you will face as an online adjunct university instructor. Just being aware that you will need to do this puts you way ahead in the game!
How well do you know the online univeristy adjunct teaching industry!

My Curriculum Vitae:
Investment Writing and Speaking:
I am an internationalspeaker oninvestments. In 2010 I gave a series of lectures onboard Brilliance of the Seas as a guest speaker on their Mediterranean cruise. Financial topics are normally forbidden for cruise speakers. But with me they make an exception because of my financial pedigree.
On day 6 the topic I discussed was "Free and Clear: Secrets of Safely Investing in Real Estate!" The day 7 topic was "Investment Style and Category: How the Stock Market Really Works!" Then on day 8 I spoke about "The 20% Solution: How to Survive and Thrive Financially in any Market!" The final talk on day 11 was "Value Investing for Dummies: When Dumb Money is Smart!"
Gina Verteouris is the Cruise Programs Administrator of the Brilliance of the Seas of Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. Regarding my on-board teachings she writes on June 19th, "You have really gone above and beyond expectations with your lectures and we have received many positive comments from our Guests."
I sponsored and organized an investing conference at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in 2011 under my Wallet Doctor brand. This intimate conference was attended by 14 paying attendees.
As such many strides were made in financial education that week. For instance I met a woman who is a retired engineer from the Reno, Nevada area.
She made a fortune on deep in the money calls during the bull markets of the 90s.
This humble and retired engineer inspired me to look more seriously at deep in the money calls with far expiration. She also gave me an important clue regarding trading volume.
Her call option and volume insights have been confirmed in the Journal of Finance.
In 2012 I gave a workshop at the FreedomFest Global Financial Summit on stock investing at the Atlantis Bahamas Resort. I was also a panelist on a discussion of capital markets.
My course "How to Build a Million Dollar Portfolio from Scratch" at the Oxford Club is an international bestseller. In 2014 I co-authored "Tax Advantaged Wealth" with leading IRS expert Jack Cohen, CPA. This was the crown jewel of the Oxford Club Wealth Survival Summit.
I have been a regular speaker at the Investment U Conferences.
In 2012 I gave a workshop entitled "How to Increase Oxford Club Newsletter Returns by 10 Fold!" The conference was held at the Grand Del Mar Resort in San Diego, California. This resort destination is rated #1 on TripAdvisor.
In 2013 I spoke at the Oxford Club's Investment U Conference in San Diego California. The talk was entitled "The Best Buy Signal in 103 Years!" Later in the summer I spoke at the Oxford Club Private Wealth Conference at the Ojai Valley Inn.
This was at the same time that Jimmy Kimmel married Molly McNearney in the posh California celebrity resort. It was fun to watch some of the celebrities who lingered.
I also operate a live weekly investment mentorship subscription service under the Bullet-Proof brand every Monday night by GoToWebinar.
Academic Research:
I am an associate professor of finance of the AACSB Accredited Graduate School of Business at the University of Puerto Rico. My research appears in some of the most prestigious academic journals in the field of investments including the Journal of Financial Research and Financial Management. This work is highly regarded on both Main Street and Wall Street. My research on investment newsletter returns was considered so important to investors that it was featured in the CFA Digest.
The Certified Financial Analyst (CFA)is the most prestigious practitioner credential in investments on Wall Street.
Prestigious finance professor Bill Christie of the Owen School of Business of Vanderbilt University and then editor of Financial Management felt that our study was valuable to financial society. We showed that the average investment newsletter is not worth the cost of subscription.
I am the lead researcher on the Puerto Rico Act 20 and 22 job impact study. This was signed between DDEC secretary Alberto Bacó and Chancellor Severino of the University of Puerto Rico.
(See Brown, S., Cao-Alvira, J. & Powers, E. (2013). Do Investment Newsletters Move Markets? Financial Management, Vol. XXXXII, (2), 315-338. And see Brown, S., Powers, E., & Koch, T. (2009). Slippage and the Choice of Market or Limit orders in Futures Trading. Journal of Financial Research, Vol. XXXII (3), 305-309)
Graduate Degrees:
I hold a Ph.D. in Finance from the AACSB Accredited Darla Moore School of Business of the University of South Carolina. My dissertation on futures market slippage was sponsored by The Chicago Board of Trade. Eric Powers, Tim Koch, and Glenn Harrison composed my dissertation committee. Professor Powers holds his Ph.D. in finance from the Sloan School of Business at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology [MIT]. Eric is a leading researcher in corporate finance and is a thought leader in spin offs and carve outs.
Dr. Harrison is the C.V. Starr economics professor at the J. Mack Robinson School of Business at Georgia State University.
He holds his doctorate in economics from the University of California at Los Angeles. Glenn is a thought leader in experimental economics and is the director of the Center for the Economic Analysis of Risk.
Tim Koch is a professor of banking. Dr. Koch holds his Ph.D. in finance from Purdue University and is a major influence in the industry.
My dissertation proved that under normal conditions traders and investors are better off entering on market while protectingwith stop limit orders. The subsequent article was published in the prestigious Journal of Financial Research now domiciled at Texas Tech University — a leading research institution.
I earned a masters in international financial management from the Thunderbird American Graduate School of International Business. Thunderbird consistently ranks as the #1 international business school in the U.S. News & World Report, and BloombergBusinessWeek.
Academic Conferences:
I spoke at the 2010 annual conference of the International Association of Business and Economics (IABE) conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. The research presented facts regarding price changes as orders flow increases in the stock market by advisory services.
I spoke at the 2010 Financial Management Association [FMA] annual conference in New York on investment newsletters. The paper was later published in the prestigious journal "Financial Management."
I presented an important study named "Do Investment Newsletters Move Markets?" at the XLVI Annual Meeting of the Consejo Latinoamericano de Escuelas de Administración (CLADEA) in 2011 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The year before that I presented my futures slippage research at a major renewable energy conference in Ubatuba, Brazil.
I spoke at the Clute International Conferences in 2011 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The research dealt with the price impact of newsletter recommendations in the stock market.
I presented a working paper entitled "The Life Cycle of Make-whole Call Provisions" at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the Southern Finance Association in Fajardo, Puerto Rico in session B.2 Debt Issues chaired by Professor LeRoy D. Brooks of John Carroll University. Luis Garcia-Feijoo of Florida Atlantic University was the discussant. I chaired the session entitled "Credit And Default Risk: Origins And Resolution." Then I was the discussant for research entitled "NPL Resolution: Bank-Level Evidence From A Low Income Country" by finance professor Lucy Chernykh of Clemson University and Abu S Amin of Sacred Heart University and Mahmood Osman Imam of the University of Dhaka in Bangladesh.
That same year I presented the same study to the Annual Meeting of the Financial Management Association in Chicago, Illinois. I did so in session 183 – Topics in Mergers and Acquisitions chaired by James Conover of the University of North Texas with Teresa Conover as discussant. I chaired session 075 – Financial Crisis: Bank Debt Issuance and Fund Allocation. Then I was the discussant for TARP Funds Distribution: Evidence from Bank Internal Capital Markets by Elisabeta Pana of Illinois Wesleyan University and Tarun Mukherjee of the University of New Orleans.
Academic Service:
I am a member of the MBA Curriculum Review Committee, the MBA Admissions Committee, The Doctoral Finance Admissions Committee, the Graduate School Personnel Committee, and the Doctoral Program Committee of the School of Business of the University of Puerto Rico.
Financial Journalism:
I am the editor of Momentum Investor Magazine. I co-founded the magazine with publisher Daniel Hall, J.D. We have published three issues so far. Momentum Investor Magazine allows me to interview very important people in the finance industry. I interview sub director Suarez of the DDEC responsible for the assignment of Puerto Rico act 20 and 22 licenses for corporate and portfolio tax reduction in the third edition. Then I interview renowned value investor Mohnish Prabia in the upcoming fourth edition — to be made available via Udemy. Valuable stock market information will be taught throughout.
In October of 2010 I arranged for the donation to The Graduate School of Business of the University of Puerto Rico of $67,248 worth of financial software to the department that has been used in different courses. This was graciously awarded by Gecko Software.
I have guided thousands of investors to superior returns. I very much look forward to mentoring you as to managing your investments to your optima! –Scott

When I have my baby I plan to nurse it, but I've heard some mothers say that breastfeeding is wonderful and relaxing while others say it is painful. What was your experience like?
Most Helpful Girl
I enjoyed it. It's easy (no bottles and nipples to wash) it's cheap (no formula to buy) it's convenient (your boobs go wherever you go) and it makes you feel close to your baby. Plus it boosts the baby's immune system.
For me it was the easiest thing in the world. I thought I wouldn't be able to produce much milk because I have tiny boobs. But it turns out, I'm a milk-maid, haha. I didn't have any problems with producing, so I nursed my baby all through his first year. It was a little painful at first, because it gives you contractions. But it gets better with time. You get used to it pretty fast and it becomes second nature to you. I will breastfeed all my kids, for sure.22|00|0

Understanding strong countertransference reactions can be the hardest part of practice for many mental health professionals - particularly with patients who have experienced great trauma. This book aimd to shows mental health practitioners how they can manage their countertransference reactions and use them as a force for healing patients suffering from trauma. The author draws on empirical studies from the Trauma Research Institute and her own clinical experience to establish a set of common countertransference responses for various types of trauma. The author explores actual clinical cases, dissects dialogue transcripts, and goes through the span of treatment to outline the various methods for dealing with countertransference, such as when and how to disclose countertransference reactions to patients. The types of traumatic experiences included are wide-ranging: child physical, sexual and emotional abuse; violent assault, such as mugging, rape, torture, and Holocaust experiences; trauma caused by chronic disillusionment, such as chronic community violence and racism; and traumatic loss, such as physical injury and debilitation.

Title: Mirror Image
Film Gold Color Spread
Brûlée: Uihuihuih...it's not easy being someone like me, you know...as you're about to find out!
Brûlée moves her claws closer to Nami's face. Nami squirms, but can't escape!
Nami: H-help!
Carrot and Chopper rush toward Brûlée
Chopper: Put Nami, down, you hag!
Brûlée: QUIET, MEDDLING FOOLS!
Brûlée swipes Chopper and Carrot away with her hand, cutting them slightly.
Brûlée: Calling me a hag...I'm thinking that more than your face is in order for slicing!
As Brûlée reaches toward Nami again, Luffy suddenly comes bursting out of the forest to her side.
Luffy: You tricked my crewmates! I won't let you get away!
One minute before
Luffy runs through the Seducing Woods away from his crewmates, unable to stop.
Luffy: Curses! My reflection got a head start...what's it trying to do?
Luffy: Have you finally realized how scary the woods can be, darling?
As Luffy says this, he suddenly snaps out of his reflection state.
Luffy: I can move on my own again! I'd better get back to the others...
Luffy runs back toward his crewmates, when he suddenly hears a voice.
Giant: Hello there! Do you mind getting this spear out of my head?
Luffy: Aaaah! You're weird! But sure!
Luffy goes behind the giant's head and pulls out Randolph's spear.
Giant: Thank you. I'm forever in your debt!
Luffy: Say, do you know where my crew is?
Giant: Uh, I think they're over there...with Brûlée...
Luffy sees what Brûlée is doing and gets enraged.
In the present
Luffy: Gomu Gomu no...
Brûlée: Gah! Reflect!
Luffy: BAZOOKA!
Right as Luffy unleashes his attack, Brûlée turns into his reflection again. She releases Nami, but matches the Bazooka perfectly!
Luffys: AAAAH! YOU'VE BECOME ME AGAIN!
The two Luffys clench their fists. They then begin to smile, although it was certainly Brûlée who started it.
However, instead of rushing and fighting, the Luffys do the unthinkable and bend over in a bridge position.
Brûlée: WHAT ARE YOU DOING, FOOL?
Luffy: Now, Carrot!
Carrot rushes at Brûlée and kicks her in the stomach with Electro, causing her to land on the ground and return to her normal form.
Brûlée: Geh...you saw through my power!
Luffy: How did you become me???
Brûlée: I'm a Mirror Human who ate the Mira Mira no Mi! I can become your perfect reflection!!! You may have outwitted me this time...but you cannot escape me! Octagonal Mirror!
Seven reflections of Brûlée appear, surrounding the Straw Hats evenly.
Brûlées: ATTACK!
But before the eight Brûlées can rush in and attack, the giant who was buried in the ground suddenly comes flying toward the original Brûlée, screaming and holding a club over his head. He hits Brûlée in the head with his club, knocking her out and causing her reflections to disappear.
Giant: Hey guys! I came to save you to repay my debt!
Straw Hats: Uh...uh...
Titlecard: 4th son of the Charlotte Family, Charlotte Bonbon
The Straw Hats gawk at Bonbon's body. While his head and hands are very large, as they saw when he was buried, but the rest of his body is extremely small.
Carrot: This may be the weirdest thing I've ever seen...and that's saying something.
Bonbon: It's been so long since I came out~...Mama wanted to marry me to some other family, but I didn't wanna be married! So I buried myself in the dirt, looking for someone to help me. And you guys did! So I'm your servant for life!
Luffy: Yay! Wanna join our crew?
Nami: Um, actually, our first order is for you to go to the Apple Juice Falls and take a nap.
Bonbon: Sure thing!
Nami: All right. Now that the mirror lady's out of commission, we should be able to get back to the beach! Let's hurry!
Meanwhile, at the Germa Kingdom, Reiju sits back as she sees two people heading toward her.
Reiju: Ah, you're back.
The two oldest Vinsmoke boys land inside the castle. "Electric Blue" Vinsmoke Ichiji and "Demon Red" Vinsmoke Niji.
Niji: Saw Sanji outside with father...that will definitely go poorly.
Reiju: What'd you see them doing? Is Sanji all right?
Ichiji: Who knows? Hopefully he'll make a stronger conversation partner than Niji.
Niji: WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME, FOOL??!! YOU WANNA GO AT IT???
Niji rushes toward Ichiji, but Ichiji grabs and immobilizes him before flipping him over and sitting on him.
Ichiji: Normally Niji, I'd just sit back and watch your rage episodes. They're very entertaining. But I don't want us making a bad impression in front of our future allies.
Niji: Since when have you cared about impressions, bastard? What's your devious little mind up to now?
Right then, Jajji comes back inside the castle.
Jajji: Welcome back, Ichiji and Niji.
Ichiji: How bad is Sanji?
Jajji: I've seen worse. The boy's gotten strong. But I made sure to teach him his place.
Reiju peers outside. Sanji is on his elbows and knees, panting heavily and with his face bloodied. He stares down at the ground and clenches his fist in anger.
Back at the Seducing Woods, the Sanji retrieval team finally makes it back to the beach.
Nami: Finally! Wait...who is that in the distance?
Luffy: That's Purin and Sanji! Let's go meet them!
The Sanji retrieval team races toward Purin and Sanji to complete the arranged transaction. However, the ground suddenly gives way beneath them, and they fall into a deep hole with no bottom in sight. After the pirates have fallen out of sight, Randolph steps up to the hole with his spear in hand and jumps in after them.

Adam Cristman and Gregg Berhalter returned to action in Tuesday's SuperClasico in miniature, a huge step forward as the Galaxy gets healthier with the thickest part of their schedule just ahead.
Cristman, coming off start-of-the-season knee surgery, played the first half and set up L.A.'s goal in a 3-1 MLS Reserve League defeat to Chivas USA. Berhalter, sidelined two and a half months by a sprained knee, stepped onto the Galaxy backline for the final half-hour.
It was L.A.'s best news out of the midday clash at Home Depot Center's Track and Field Stadium, a fairly even affair swayed by Chivas' superior inventiveness (especially Gerson Mayen) and finishing touch (especially Victor Estupiñan) in front of goal.
Estupiñan scored twice and Mayen set up the Ecuadoran forward's first goal and trialist Chris Cortez's second-half as Chivas improved to 1-1-1 in the reserve league's Western Division. The Galaxy is 0-2-0.
"It certainly was good to get [Adam and Gregg] out," said Galaxy assistant coach Curt Onalfo, who is in charge of L.A.'s reserve side. "Obviously, that's part of what these games are for."
The idea is to get both back with the first team as soon as possible, with a six-games-in-22-days span starting with Saturday's showdown at HDC against the New York Red Bulls.
CRISTMAN'S PROVING GROUND: "This is a good exercise for me, in trying to prove I'm match-fit and can play and earn myself a spot on the 18[-player game roster] and get on the field in the weekend games," said Cristman, who was acquired in a January trade from D.C. United. "That's the plan. It's really up to Bruce [Arena, the head coach] and the other coaches to evaluate that and determine if putting me in there makes sense."
Cristman said he thinks he's ready to contribute to the first team but wants to see how his left knee holds up the next couple of days after "taking a few hits."
"It took him five to seven minutes to find a rhythm, and then, all of a sudden, he was dangerous," Onalfo said. "I felt like it would have been nice to have him for 90 minutes because he certainly was creating a whole lot of havoc the last part of the first half."
BERHALTER BACK?: Berhalter, the Galaxy's backline leader and an assistant coach, too, is further away.
"I just started running last Monday," he said. "Eight days ago I was not able to run, and now I'm playing. So it went quickly, but it's a progression. I played 30 minutes, and just building on that. … I feel good, I feel strong. That's the most important thing."
A season-ending knee injury to Brazilian center back Leonardo has hurt L.A.'s defensive depth. Berhalter said he wants to return "regardless of who's fit, who's injured … I have a burning desire to play." The Galaxy's need for him to return? "We've got a heavy schedule coming up, and we need bodies. That's a different issue."
"Those minutes were important," Onalfo said. "We were contemplating giving him 45, but we felt 30 minutes made the most sense, with him having been out so long."
CHIVAS STRIKES: Mayen (Los Angeles/Manual Arts HS) was the instigator of Chivas' attack, slipping the ball to Estupiñan in the 31st minute for the first goal, setting up Cortez (Mission Viejo/Trabuco Hills HS) in the 64th for the finale, and nearly playing a role in two more, a header Francisco Mendoza put wide and his own chip past the right post.
Rookie Hector Jimenez (Bell Gardens/Bell Gardens HS) pulled the Galaxy even in the 35th, Cristman's cross caroming off him into the net, but Estupiñan restored Chivas' lead moments later from Mendoza's feed.
ACADEMY AWARDS: Both sides gave time to players from their youth academies. Matt Tilley (Irvine/Irvine HS) played 70 minutes in central defense for the Galaxy, coming on when Sean Alvarado (UCLA) suffered a knee injury (tests will determine the severity). Forward Justin Dhillon (Rancho Santa Margarita/Tesoro HS), like Tilley, saw time in his second MLS Reserve clash.
Academy defender Ian Hines-Ike and midfielder Chris Rodriguez (West Covina/Arroyo HS) made their third appearances for Chivas' reserves, both going the full 90. Goats coach Carlos Llamosa used forward Pedro Velazquez (Harbor City/Banning HS) and midfielder Edson Lemus (Wilmington/Banning HS) in the second half, and forward Danny Castro (Los Angeles/Bell HS) also was called up to the team, although he didn't play.
Cortez and Artur Aghasyan, who was stationed at right back, were the other non-roster players for Chivas.

Kathmandu, Oct. 20 (Reuters): Two Britons on a recruiting drive for Gurkha soldiers for the British army in a remote village were among five people feared kidnapped by Nepali rebels, officials said today.
Prem Narayan Sharma, district administrator of Baglung, around 300 km west of the capital, said the five were taken last night from Lekhani village, located in a stronghold of Maoist insurgents.
The five people, including two British nationals, have been kidnapped by suspected Maoists, he said. A police and army rescue team will be sent from the district headquarters early tomorrow. Sharma said he felt there was no danger to the lives of the five people and hoped the kidnappers would release them tomorrow.
Peter Bullock, the assistant military attache at the British embassy in Kathmandu confirmed the incident but could not say how many Britons were among those taken.
A small group of about five people have been out of contact since last night, he said. We understand a group claiming to be Maoists approached them yesterday and asked them to come and discuss recruitment issues with their commanders.
The Maoists have been fighting since 1996 to set up a communist republic in the impoverished nation.
Around 3,400 Gurkhas feared Nepali fighters who have served with British armed forces for the past 200 years currently serve in British military ranks. The British army recruits about 230 Gurkhas from Nepal every year. The Maoists have been opposed to the recruitment of Gurkhas by the British and the Indian armies.
The rebels, who draw their inspiration from Chinese revolutionary leader Mao Zedong, have not kidnapped foreigners in the past but they have extorted money or stolen from foreign tourists visiting the scenic Himalayan kingdom.

A neuropsychological evaluation provides comprehensive assessment of adult patients in whom impairments of cognitive or neuropsychiatric functioning are evident or suspected. Assessment involves a systematic evaluation of higher cognitive abilities to identify possible problems with brain functioning. This helps lead to a diagnosis, defines strengths and weaknesses, and helps suggest best treatment options. An evaluation can help guide decisions on: prognosis and dispositional planning, rehabilitation issues, ability to return to work, tracking of changes in functioning over time, and educational and vocational planning. A wide range of conditions may affect neuropsychological functioning such as: neurologic conditions (e.g., stroke, epilepsy, brain tumor, Parkinson's disease, MS, etc.), suspected memory problems or dementia, traumatic brain injury, medical conditions affecting central nervous system functioning (e.g., liver disease, Lupus, HIV infection, or cardiac conditions), psychiatric conditions, attentional disorders, and learning disorders. The types of tests used depend upon the referral question and may assess: attention and memory, speed of thinking, reasoning and problem solving, visual-spatial functions, language functions, sensory-perceptual functions, motor functions, academic skills, and emotional functioning.

Attending public schools in the district Rafael always felt that there weren't enough educational programs easily available to residents in the community of all ages. That issue still remains. As a former teacher of an Adult Literacy program in East New York, Education will be his top priority. Rafael is looking to bring more adult literacy and GED programs back into the district to empower our community. Neighborhood residents will receive the tools needed to capitalize on opportunities and better paying jobs.
Rafael will also look to find ways to implement more arts programs into our public schools. There is a lot of talent in our schools and most of our kids are never able to tap into it because the schools don't provide enough arts programs during school hours. Rafael believes that the future of our community starts with them.

Huge thanks to Make Up by Ashley!
She did all of our make up in the above pics and did an amazing job!
Here is the link to her Facebook Page!
Hi All! Sorry it's been a while. My computer has been on the brink and has has a mostly black screen for the past couple of weeks. I finally broke down and got a new one yesterday!
I am so excited about this post, because it's something that I've been talking about for over a month - The truth about Benefit Cosmetics Eyelash Extensions.
Sharon and I went to California in May and July for some important business meetings and decided bring our A-game by getting fake lashes. Here is my review:
The Lashes
The lashes themselves, once applied, are amazing!!! With 3 different lengths to choose from, the lashes blend extremely well with your real ones and add a ton of volume! I literally have never felt so beautiful. With the Benefit lashes on, I didn't wear a bit of eye liner or mascara. It wasn't needed, the lashes did it all. (Well until the day of the meeting, pictured above.)
Rating: 5/5
The Lash Removal
The lash removal process practically ruined my experience. I was so excited about them and then after about 2 weeks, two of my fake lashes fell out - the ones right in the middle of my eye aka the most obvious ones. So, being the neurotic person that I am, I then had to take all of them off. But none of the Ulta people could tell us how to do it! We visited the store multiple times, but both times we visited, none of the lash/brow professionals were in. So, we resorted to just old fashioned soap and water. Need less to say, it didn't work so well. It hurt and worst of all - It ripped out half of my natural lashes!!!! My eyelids were so bald after wearing them!
Rating: 1/5
(Side note, we did find out how to take them off afterwards. According to one of the Brow Bar associates, the best way to remove Benefit Cosmetics Eyelash Extensions is simply by using baby oil. They recommended putting baby oil on a q-tip and gently rubbing the glue. Whether that actually works, I am not really sure.)
Overall Review
I am quite torn about this product. The lashes themselves are amazing! I LOVED having the lashes in and I wish I could wear them forever. But that's the downside. If you wear them once, you better be prepared to wear them time and time again, because when you remove them, they will rip out quite a few of your natural lashes. Regardless of that though, I am extremely happy with the lashes so I still give them a high rating.
Rating: 4/5
(Sorry for all the selfies. I didn't bring my regular camera to Cali and thus didn't take actual pictures.)
What are your experiences with the Benefit lashes?

THE Chairman of High Wycombe Cricket Club visited a school in The Gambia, which he had raised money for during a 50 mile walk.
Geoff Morgan went out to the village of Jarjari with his wife, Mandy, to see where some of the money they had raised had gone to.
His brother, Phil, who lives in Prestwood set up The Morgan Clark Foundation in 2010 after he visited The Gambia with the help of his wife, Gina.
He rebuilt the nursery school which had been washed away by floods and continued to work to raise money to help build visitor lodges at the school.
Geoff said: "Mandy and I were lucky enough to visit with Phil and Gina the school two weeks ago and experience first hand how Phil's vision, dedication and commitment means so much to the parents and children."
He said more than 300 people turned out to welcome them, who wanted to shake their hands and express their thanks. He added:
"There are not many times I am lost for words, this was one. I don't mind admitting I had tears in my eyes due to the emotional welcome."
Mandy and Geoff were given the honour of being made Father and Mother of the village of India by the Chief and both bestowed Gambian names Mandy- Nyima Marong and Geoff- Lamin Marong.

I just realized i dont know what can make me happy. im not a happy person. i have nearly everything i want. but i dont feel happy, having it all.
I was asked what can make me happy and dont know what to answer.
How can i know or find what can make me happy?
Most Helpful Guy
Just try out lots of different things. Play online games, work out, play different sports, just try everything and i promise you will find something that makes you happy.00|00|0
Most Helpful Girl
I learned long ago to not place my happiness in someone elses hands , because once they have gone then so is your happiness. I believe happiness means different things to different people.
Personally , to find my happiness i fought to recognise my own limitations and accept some things i can't change, realising failure in life are just an opportunity to begin again. Mistakes are lessons to be learned. I have learned to adapt to any circumstance and environmet
. All this has brought me inner peace. So i realised long ago true happiness for me was finding inner peace, no job, amount of money or relationship can give that to me... only myself.
So you just have to search to find out what happiness means to you and work at finding it.11|00|0

OK CC addicts..I'm doing a 5 tiered stacked cake for a bride. The bottom tier is cake and the rest of the tiers are dummies. (4 round and top one square) I will put supports on the bottom tier and separator plates on the others but do I need a supports system on the others?? They will be fondant covered. Should I put something through the middle of the rest of the tiers for stability??
The only support you will need is a minimal amount in the bottom tier. You don't even need separator plates. Just stack each styro right on the other. But put a cardboard under the one that goes on the real cake so no styro bits get on the cake. I wouldn't even use a center rod.
Well that sounds easy enough! Thanks for your info. This is the tallest cake I've done so I'm excited and nervous.
I agree that no support is required between dummies, but I'd use a little more than minimal doweling in the bottom tier. Four fondant covered dummies can get heavy.
I would also suggest, if at all possible, transporting the stacked dummies separately, then placing them on the bottom tier at your destination.
Glue your dummies together to make it even easier.
If 4 dowels in a bottom tier can support real cake, they can support styro's. I just use BC as the glue between my dummies ... and I pick them up by the top tier to move them ... they stay together just fine.
I'd go ahead and stack the dummies before transport to let the whatever-you're-using-for-glue dry them together. If you want to place the 4 stacked dummies on the real cake once you arrive, you can. I personally would stack the whole thing at the shop.
I did a 5 tier sq with the top 4 being dummies. I center doweled because it was so tall and I didn't want any mishaps. It was pretty simple to drive the dowel through the styro and the bottom cake. I felt better knowing it was secured to the cakeboard.
Thanks you guys. All of the suggestions were very informative. I think I will probably need to stack them at the location because it will be so tall. I'm transporting in my GMC Yukon and I don't think it will fit. It is also up a very winding road. You guys are awsome!!!

Courteney Cox unzipped her wetsuit between filming scenes for Cougar Town on location in Malibu yesterday. She was joined by costar Brian Van Holt for the beach day and the duo hung out in the sand when they weren't jet skiing close to shore. Courteney and Brian have been hard at work on the series since returning from a getaway together earlier this month. Courteney has also been involved in another small screen project supporting her ex David Arquette as he competes on Dancing With the Stars. Courteney and Coco have been a staple in the audience, though they have some friendly fan competition from all the ladies in contestant Rob Kardashian's life. Kourteney, Kim, and Khloe's screaming apparently overpowered the rest of the cheering, though Coco did her best to upstage the sisters during this week's taping.

I'm on the border of caring/not caring if she's dating this dude.
It's sick that women think they look better with botox. Admittedly, sometimes they do, but then they decide they need to keep it up and over do it. Look at Michelle Pfeiffer...looked amazing for years, some botox here and there, but just recently she "over did it" and ruined her looks. Sad.
^indeed. courtney has gone way overboard with the botox.
Just saw the last Scream movie - my god what she did to her face is just as shameful as her acting - yipes!
They're at the beach. Why wouldn't he be shirtless?

Nurses! Please advise!
I guess it doesn't have to be nurses... anyone who's had to give someone else a shot.
This is a bit private so I won't get into too much. But the bf has to start taking shots once a month. I went with him last month to learn how to administer the shot since it's done back near his keester and he can't see to do it himself. Anyway.. He can just go to the office to have it done every month but that means he has to pay for a visit each time, so it just works better that we do it at home.
When I was pregnant I was on insulin shots 4 times a day. So needles don't bother me... until I saw his needle. Jeepers.
It's like a pipe. It's like...pvc pipe lol. Of course I'm exaggerating but holy cow it's so much bigger than insulin needles.
So.. any tips on this? I'm sure I'll just get used to it, but any advice is appreciated.

Phil Laak hospitalized after ATV accident
Professional poker player Phil "The UnaBomber" Laak was seriously injured after an ATV accident on Thursday during a rafting trip with friends. His injuries included several broken bones and lacerations around his eye. In his usual style, Laak is taking it pretty well, and Tweeting throughout complete with pictures:
Atv accident, massive arm injury and lacerations to eye in oregon. Life is good.
Stitches forthcoming. Could have been worse I'm lucky to be in one piece.
The injury occurred while Laak was on a rafting trip in Oregon with Antonio Esfandiari, Brian Rast, Alec Torelli, David Wells, and three other friends.
Card Player Magazine had a chance to speak with Esfandiari who was riding on a separate ATV alongside Laak when the accident occurred: "We were following Dave and Tony on the ATVs and we were keeping up very well… We went over a sand dune, but there was a drop hidden behind it. It could have happened to either of us, honestly. Phil tried to jump off in mid-air, but he ended up landing on his bike. His elbow is broken and his wrist is all jacked up. His eye is also really messed up. Had it been one millimeter off, he'd probably be blind."

'Chiang is one of the great science fiction short story writers of all time' Jo Walton
One of the best parts of my job is getting the opportunity to give a new lease of life to books that might have been forgotten about or are no longer at the forefront of reader's minds. Stories of Your Life And Others by Ted Chiang, the glorious, multiple-award-winning first story collection from one of SF's master short story writer's, is one such book. Moreover, Story of Your Life, the titular story of the collection, is now being made into a film!
In May we republished this seminal collection with a stunning new cover look and I took this opportunity to ask Chiang's biggest in-house champion, our Analytics Director James Long, why he rates Chiang, and why we should all read his short stories.
What is it about Ted Chiang's stories that you find so appealing?
Some authors bless us with a rich and regular delivery of new novels, and others bless us with an exquisite and occasional story. Ted Chiang is the latterest of the latter. Reading him – being a reader awaiting a new story – makes you appreciate what you have. Also, I like that each story is a narrative exploration of what it is to be human, cast in the light of an intriguing scientific idea - they represent a pure, almost old-fashioned, form of science fiction by being – simply, unarguably – fiction about the intersection of science and humanity, which is the foundation of the genre.
What is your favourite story of his and why?
"Story of Your Life" is central to the collection and is about a linguist who has to learn the language of an alien race who have made contact with humanity. In Chiang's deceptively simple style, the mechanics of linguistics are woven into a story of love and loss. The story is as interesting and challenging as it is moving and delightful. It's an exploration, through the detailed construction of a posited alien language, of whether a memory is something you have or something you've lost (hat tip to Woody Allen).
How did you first come across Ted Chiang?
I heard about him winning the Hugo award for a short story one year, and read more about him. I learned that he writes little and wins many awards. That he is a technical writer by day - a job I've done myself, so that stoked my interest. Then that he does a lot of thinking and research to produce a very well-honed story – four years in the case of the "Story of Your Life". This all painted a picture of a process of creative distillation and I wondered if the finished product was a pure as it promised to be. And so I got hold of the collection (handily available on the shelves of the then Tor UK publisher, Peter Lavery) and got stuck into the stories.
Which story from Stories of Your Life and Others would you recommend to someone who has never read Chiang?
I'd say start with the first in this collection: "Tower of Babylon". This was Ted Chiang's first published story. Miners from Elam travel to Babylon to climb the tower and break through the vault of heaven. The story unfolds quickly and elegantly, painting a vivid picture of the architecture of the tower and the life lived upon it. The brilliance of this story is not just in the twist at the end but also in the process of getting there. Process is completely to the fore in the story: the tower comes alive as a possible thing even though your rational mind knows it to be a wonder of the author's imagination. As the bricklayers and the miners do, you will believe they can break through the vault of heaven.
If you could sum up Chiang's stories in one word, what would it be?
Rare. Pure. Human.
