It's not Palm-gate, but signs of discord may be bubbling to the surface again at the sprawling MiraCosta Community College District.
A pair of surveys ---- released to the North County Times after it filed a Public Records Act request ---- indicate concerns about infighting on the governing board.
The first survey gauged opinions from MiraCosta faculty and staff. It gave high marks to college President Francisco Rodriguez, but contained plenty of criticism for the college's board of trustees.
The survey picked up on rifts among board members and said that some employees "believe that this is having a negative impact on the administration of the district."
The survey is hardly definitive: Only 58 faculty and staffers were contacted and 32 responded. More than 1,000 people work for the college.
The responses came from "key campus constituencies to evaluate the operations of the Board of Trustees ," a report to the board said.
The findings will be coupled with another survey ---- the board's self-evaluation ---- to help set goals over the next year. That evaluation also contained plenty of critical comments about the board's ability to get along.
"The team nature of the board ---- call it collegiality and mutual trust ---- has not been sufficiently honored," wrote trustee Bill Fischer.
"We are seven separate individuals. We only work together as a team on certain issues," wrote trustee Jackie Simon.
Trustee George McNeil said in an interview that board members are divided in their support of Rodriguez. The surveys were released after a divisive vote last month on extending the president's contract.
"I think he's doing an excellent job, and there are other people on the board who don't feel that way," he said.
McNeil was among the trustees who, after thinking they had agreed in a recent closed session to extend Rodriguez's contract by two years, were miffed to learn that no official action had been taken. A divided board agreed to extend the contract by a year in a subsequent vote.
Rodriguez could not be reached for comment late last week.
Several board members declined to comment about the surveys. Others were tepid in their remarks.
Nearly all who were contacted noted concerns that the documents could negatively affect plans for the college district's first bond on the ballot since it built its Oceanside campus in 1964. A decision to put the measure before voters in the November election could come next month.
The bond, which would bring in more than $500 million, would finance new buildings for science and nursing instruction, retrofit older structures and renovate others.
Gloria Carranza, who has been on the MiraCosta College District's board for some 18 years and now serves as its president, urged caution against reading too much into the reports.
"Everybody on the board is totally committed to and cares deeply about being stewards of the public trust. Sometimes boards have bumps in the road. This is a bump in the road, and we're going to address it."
The surveys are scheduled to come up during Tuesday's meeting, scheduled to start at 3 p.m., at the district's San Elijo campus in Cardiff.
There were plenty of encouraging comments from those who participated in the employee survey, conducted by the college's Office of Institutional Planning, Research and Grants.
Staffers commended the board for its role in securing accreditation and keeping the college on a sound financial footing. And "there was acknowledgement by multiple respondents that the Board is made up of people who truly care about MiraCosta College and want to do what's best for students."
"But the lack of unity and friction between the Board and the Superintendent/President is having a negative effect on the achievement of the college's goals," the report said.
Among the comments:
"I believe the board would be wise to trust in Dr. Rodriguez's leadership more than what they have in the past. He is taking the college in a positive direction and we all need to support his vision," said one respondent.
"It is clear from viewing board meetings that there is a lack of trust between the Board and the CEO," said another respondent.
"The board clearly does not trust the CEO and clearly does not understand the correct role of a community college board," said a third.
On its self-evaluation, the board gave itself a ranking of 1.3 ---- on a scale of 1 to 4, with 4 denoting "goal/criteria exceeded" ---- when it came to measuring how it worked as a team.
Trustees gave themselves a 1.1 average in grading themselves on enhancing the college's visibility and credibility in the community.
"We'll use this as a learning tool," Carranza said in an interview.
Fischer agreed. "I want the college to move forward positively and productively on the issues immediately before it," he said.
No one is predicting a repeat of the divisiveness that followed a 2005 investigation labeled by some as Palm-gate.
That 17-month probe into whether palm trees were illegally sold from the school's horticulture department led to multiple lawsuits and the departure of former college President Victoria Munoz Richart, whose management style was widely criticized by MiraCosta's faculty.
Several trustees who supported Richart are no longer serving on the board.
MiraCosta College serves about 14,500 students at three campuses. The district stretches from Carmel Valley to Oceanside and operates on a $95.4 million general fund budget.

This podcast validates my own position that Mormons are Christians. Historically speaking, Abrahamic religion lives in a milieu defined by pseudepigrapha ("false writings" whose historical authors assign their work to some mythical hero, e.g. Moses or Paul or some other legendary Christian apostle or associate of the prophet Muhammad). Like other religious leaders before him (e.g. the Deuteronomists, the Christian writers who gave us the Gospels or some of the dubious Epistles, and Muslim authors of hadith), Joseph Smith (and/or his collaborators) made up stories, sacred stories that he credited to mythical heroes (Moses, Abraham, Mormon, Moroni, Nephi).
Mormonism is just one outgrowth of the giant body of folklore that is Abrahamic religion (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, with all their different sects). Folklore can be profound. Folklore can be moving. Folklore can teach you useful things. But it is not history. It cannot teach the lessons of history. Its lessons are about human nature, not what really happened at some point in historical time, since most of it never did (certainly not as advertised): no historical Exodus, no Resurrection, no appearance of the Angel Gabriel to Muhammad, no First Vision for Joseph Smith. These events are myths that explore human nature outside of history--myths like the Lord of the Rings, the Kalevala, the Nibelungenlied, the Volsungasaga, the Homeric epics, the Mahabarata, and the Ramayana.
There is definitely a useful place for myth in the world. I can learn from Tolkien's work without believing in a historical place known as Middle Earth. The character of Bilbo Baggins offers insight into modern human nature, not the nature of a nonexistent tribe of midgets living in a culture that has disappeared from the face of the earth (leaving no physical trace, just like the Lamanites and the Nephites!). All these years I thought I was trying to be a "faithful" historian, I was really just doing my utmost to turn ancient science fiction into factual history. I attended seminars in ancient history that were functionally equivalent to courses in "hobbitology" (complete with the latest research tracing the real history of Homo floresiensis: the Liang Bua cave is all that remains of the Shire)! It would be funnier if people didn't take it all so seriously.
Bob Price is my kind of Southern Baptist, and I am his kind of Mormon.

1993 Lexus ES 300 Sedan - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Reliable and Luxurious
By LexusES300Driver on
Vehicle1993 Lexus ES 300 4dr Sedan
ReviewI'm a teenager who just recieved their
license. I kept bugging my parents
about getting a 1993 Mercedes 190-E 2.6
as a third car that I could drive. We
looked at some, but we thought that
they looked too old for the model year
and lacked great performance. Then,
when a family member was selling their
1993 Lexus ES 300, we knew we were in
luck. While this is Lexus's base model
which is based on the Toyota Camry, the
car is more luxurious and came fully
loaded w/ power everything as well as
leather, premium stereo, moon roof,
phone in front armrest, premium wheels,
and ABS. Also the 3.0 L 185 hp. V-6
engine is impressive.
Best FeaturesI love the option of power mode (for sport highway driving) or normal mode (for city driving below 40 mph) where it feels like a manual transmission. The sound system is great as well, and is great for drvers big on stereo.
Worst FeaturesIf the car has a moon roof (which most on the road do) I would say that headroom would be tight for people over 6'. I had to lower the seat greatly in order to get comfortable headroom and I am 5' 10''.

Steven Spielberg's 1982 hit about a stranded alien and his loving
relationship with a fatherless boy (Henry Thomas) struck a chord with
audiences everywhere, and it furthered Spielberg's reputation as a
director of equally strong commercial sensibilities and classical
leanings. Henry Thomas gives a strong, emotional performance as E.T.'s
young friend, Robert MacNaughton and Drew Barrymore make a solid
impression as his siblings, and Dee Wallace is lively as the kids' mother.
The special effects almost look a bit quaint now with all the computer
advancements that have occurred since, but they also have more heart
behind them than a lot of what we see today.
E.T. - The Extra-Terrestrial received Academy
Awards for Music Scoring Awards (Best Original Score; John Williams),
Sound (Robert Knudson, Robert Glass, Don Digirolamo, Gene Cantamessa),
Sound Effects Editing (Charles L. Campbell, Ben Burtt), and Special Visual
Effects (Carlo Rambaldi, Dennis Muren, Kenneth F. Smith). It was nominated
for Best Picture (Steven Spielberg - Producer, Kathleen Kennedy -
Producer), Directing (Steven Spielberg), Writing (Best Screenplay written
directly for the screen; Melissa Matheson), Cinematography (Allen Daviau),
Film Editing (Carol Littleton).

Coach2100 for Situational Control
Written by James Careless
0 Comments
When you think of U.S. cities vulnerable to natural or manmade disasters, O'Fallon, IL may not immediately come to mind…but it should. Located 16 miles east of St. Louis, "the 26,000 residents of O'Fallon live near the New Madrid fault, which is very seismically active," said O'Fallon Mayor Gary Graham.
"We are also close to Scott Air Force Base. Although the base is an important boost to our community thanks to the thousands of jobs it supports, Scott is a major USAF refueling point, making it a natural terrorist target. Add the fact that we live in tornado country, and coordinated emergency preparedness before an event is critically important."
To provide such coordination in an accessible, reliable, and cost-effective manner, the city of O'Fallon recently implemented Coach2100's Command and Control platform. Designed to work securely over the Internet and provide password-protected access to authorized personnel equipped with a wired, wireless, or mobile Internet connection, Coach2100 C&C is being rolled out to O'Fallon's police, fire/EMS, and public works departments.
When fully operational, it will allow city planners to develop Web-accessible C&C scenarios before events occur; and permit first responders to interact with and update these plans during actual emergencies.
"With Coach2100, our police will go to the scene with their in-car laptops, and be able to communicate directly with their commanders in real time using data, voice, and video," Graham said. "They'll also be able to get access not only to data about the locations they're attending and the people they're dealing with, but tap into predefined plans online that will tell them when and what to do." In addition, Coach2100 provides a multimedia two-way system that can act as a backup to first responder radio and telephone systems and help deal with extra traffic in mutual aid situations.
Coach2100 was founded in 1998 to provide Web-based solutions for command and control of contentious events. Coach2100 allows business managers and leaders to build and train teams, engage in team preparation for execution of a negotiation, then memorialize the event and, using that history, train and prepare for the next negotiation. Business leaders can communicate with any member of their teams, any time and anywhere globally.
After the chaos of 9/11, the company realized its Coach2100 architecture and interactive technology could also be used by first responders to manage emergency situations. So it teamed up with Sun Microsystems to provide two-way, 128/256/NSA level-bit encrypted communications for security applications in a seamless, scalable Command and Control platform.
Also, individual Command and Control emergency response plans can be structured to provide varying degrees of access to different users depending on their clearance and authorization levels. This ensures compartmentalization of sensitive data as needed and provides extra layers of security within the system.
Should an unauthorized user be detected, Coach2100 Command and Control architecture makes it possible for an administrator to instantly lock him out. The hierarchical access structure also allows system administrators connected to the Internet anywhere to make last-minute adjustments; including adding new users and team building as the event requires.
In addition to the city of O'Fallon, Coach2100 is currently being used by "a three-letter federal agency, which often refers to a federal law enforcement, defense or intelligence organization," said Federal Computer Week magazine (www.fcw.com). Clearly, the feds have faith in Coach2100 C&C.
How It Works
Once the Coach2100 Command and Control system has been deployed, the person responsible for putting together a coordinated emergency plan opens up a "project" on the system. The project lays out the actual Command and Control system that will be used during an emergency. It also details the chain of command (including each rank's responsibilities), the procedures to be implemented during emergency situations, and the resources to be made available to first responders in the field, including those that will help update the plan with current situational information. Add the hierarchical access structure, and the C&C plan is complete.
Now let's consider Coach2100 from an officer's point of view. Let's say he is on the scene of a tornado strike. Using a handheld wireless phone, PDA, or in-car laptop computer, the officer can immediately connect to his department's emergency plan and get information about the areas to which he personally is assigned. Within these areas is access to the resources that officers need, such as building maps or community evacuation plans, plus specific instructions as to the officers' specific tasks in this emergency. As they complete the tasks, these can be "checked off" electronically on the Coach2100 platform, letting commanders know what the officers have done to date, and what there is left to do.
Using the same system, airborne observers in a helicopter can communicate with officers and others on the ground. They also can input GPS coordinates of trapped victims; allowing rescue vehicles to go directly to their locations as soon as possible. An officer who has noticed the imminent collapse of a building can warn everybody on the scene with a short text message, and a commander wanting to evacuate his people quickly can alert everyone with a few keystrokes.
To put the power of Coach2100 Command and Control into perspective, imagine if it had been deployed in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001. At the first sign of trouble, police and firefighters could have been alerted to the clear and present danger of collapse. Meanwhile, city officials could have coped with the loss of their physical command center by shifting to another location: Being completely mobile with multiple backups, the Coach2100 system would have provided uninterrupted continuous C&C communications and situational awareness. At no time would leadership or first responders have been in the dark about the event as it unfolded.
At a distance, state and federal officials would have been able to follow the events at Ground Zero more accurately and have direct input into the deployment of reinforcements and relief. Meanwhile, satellite links could have picked up the gaps left by the collapse of cellular and land line telephone in lower Manhattan.
Putting Coach2100 Command and Control in Context
The specter of 9/11 highlights a truth about emergency planning: Good as they are, Coach2100 Command and Control and other emergency planning tools and technology are not enough to prevent chaos when disaster strikes. What is also required is intensive cooperation, preplanning, and joint exercises by police, fire/EMS, and other government agencies before trouble hits; so that the necessary plans and procedures are in place when the "real thing" happens.
In turn, all the interagency cooperation in the world cannot do much if it isn't translated into clear, concise plans before things go terribly wrong. This is where Coach2100 and products like it come in. They help cities such as O'Fallon translate cooperative good will into concrete preparations.
This brings us to a third point: Interagency cooperation and the right technology won't solve anything if there isn't the political will to buy and implement it.
Fortunately, "we are a city that thinks a little more progressively than most," Graham said. "We're not going to sit around for others to do proper emergency planning before we step up to the plate. If we did, our citizens would hang us out to dry!"
When all these elements are in place, then communities are truly able to protect themselves against natural and manmade. In such circumstances, Coach2100 Command and Control can be a real asset.

please destroy my image
March 3, 2017 in Activism
What good is a depiction to what's realistic? I stayed open so let them take the bait. Maybe the best thing about making a discovery in science is the truth still stands no matter who did it first… before I unveiled how earths are created I already a year or two before that came up with a theory of matter. I didn't take it very seriously until I had the greatest success in terrestrial planetary formation. Then afterwards I read a verse from Christ which helped confirm my findings and makes hyperspace travel understandable. Heck I've been chipped against my will before grasping all of that… call it domestication because it only gets worse. If freedom is taken for granted; as in allowing dictations of the state to rule over humanity and earth than nothing that they present politically makes sense.

All of the poems in this book are great examples of what not to say. This collection of poetry is a reflection of unfiltered thoughts about people, life's circumstances, and relationships, on a bad day. This book is refreshingly boldly honest, hilarious and a bit troubling. Remy mocks self absorbed people in, "Pride Monster, Do What You Have To Do, Get Out Of My Seat, I'm Your Frienemy." This book is not for those who deny ever having a bad day or toxic people in your life. This is revenge poetry at it's best!More

Extra Star Bercause I Feel Badly For The Author
Seriously?: 102 poems from an agitated state
The opening to this 50 minutes collection of poems is quite apparent in what she is about to do. She has written a poem about everyone who has ever "done wrong" to her [perceived or real.]
The summary claims this is a collection of things not to say. Unless it is tongue-in-cheek I feel very badly that the author has had these experiences. It seems she cannot get along with anyone.
I didn't find any humor in it and I'm pretty easily amused. It was just over an hour of - whining isn't the right word – grumbling about people from her past.
If this is her existence or even if she has risen above what these poems portray, I would say she is seriously unfortunate and perhaps should look within.
Each poem was melodious and easily this is not the art of a great genius… I am not a poetry's a snob, however I am certain that I could come up with 102 poems about people I know that would sound very much like these but with some agitation and some happiness.
The narrator, Barbara Colton did a good job, though the material didn't seem to be especially challenging. I will look for other work by her but not the author.
*I was given a copy of this book to listen to in exchange for my opinion, thoughts and this review.*
Notes: There may have been at cuss word or two, nothing to speak of
Credit worthy/$: Not for me not anytime not anyway. It is just over an hour long and at this writing $6.95
If he found my review helpful please select yes below this text. Thank you.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book of agitated poetry.While there were some I could not connect with many were hitting nails on the head in my life.Barbara Colvins reading of the work was wonderful!I was gifted a copy for a fair review.

Performance Comparison of AODV and DYMO MANET Protocols Under Wormhole Attack Environment
A Mobile Ad-Hoc network, or MANET, is an infrastructure less, self-configuring network. All wireless devices in MANETs are connected through wireless links. Mobile wireless networks are more vulnerable to information and physical security threats than fixed wireless networks. Due to the use of open and shared broadcast wireless channel and due to insufficient physical protection, these networks are prone to security threats. These threats can endanger the overall functionality of mobile ad-hoc network. Various security threats show their impact at different layers. In this paper, the authors have discussed some basic routing protocols. Different security attacks have also been discussed.

|: 0
|: 0
The Shin is a Germany-based band that became famous for their creative ways of interweaving traditional Georgian music with influences from pop and world music. For their performance in the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest they are joined by vocalist Mariko Ebralidze. Their Eurovision entry Three Minutes To Earth reflects this idea: "It describes the last three minutes of a long walk back to Earth, back home." Shin also means "home", so the band name is linked to the lyrics.
Mariko Ebralidze was born in 1984 in Tbilisi. She graduated from a music school, piano department, and in 2000, she was enrolled at #2 Music College named after Zakaria Paliashvili pursuing the specialty of a pop singer. In 2008, she received a bachelor's degree as a soloits and teached from the Pedagogical Institute of Music Arts. Until 2013, Mariko Ebralidze participated in several high-ranked festivals in Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Germany.

Caves and bugs and bats, OH MY!
Bridgetown Travel Blog› entry 3 of 8 › view all entries
A bit about me. I don't like squirrels. Okay, I REALLY don't like squirrels. They're creepy, crawly, twitchy, destructive things. *shudder*. That being said, I love bats.
Anyway, my love for bats was a driving force behind booking this adventure. I figured that cave = bats. I wasn't disappointed!
We got off the bus after a ride to the highest point on the island. We took a BEAUTIFUL hike through the jungle and learned about the many beautiful plants and creatures that call
After about an hour of a mildly strenuous hike, we reach the mouth of the cave.
Okay, the first few hundred feet of the hike was the most difficult simply because the bugs got REALLY excited to see our headlamps. After a short time, though, the bugs went away and the hike was quite nice. Yes it's damp, musty, dark, muddy, wet, and slippery. It's a cave. It was AWESOME. There are some great stalagmite and stalactite formations. We saw bugs of all kinds and, most importantly, BATS. I saw a few but heard THOUSANDS of them. I was thrilled!
At the end of our hike, the guide had us all stand very still and we turned off our headlamps.
Okay, funny story that could have been much worse, but worth sharing. We're standing in the PITCH dark in a foreign country, at the mercy of a tour guide. We turned off our lamps and are experiencing being in total darkness. Something hits me, FLUMP, on my shoulder. It's a cave. I figure it's a drip of water, or at worst, a bug that bounced off me. So I reach up to brush it off. Not only is it stuck fast to my shirt, but it's SQUISHY! At this point, my instincts were to fling it as far from myself as possible.
Oh, that's one thing to keep in mind when planning a trip to

Add a review
My family and I were quite impressed with the appearance of the box. The box was wrapped in shrink wrap and underneath the wrap, inside the box, the products were tightly (not too tightly mind you) and neatly packed together. We received a free tresemme sample as well as, a list and brief description of each product. We especially enjoyed the Wild Garden Sun Dried Tomato Hummus with the Snack Factory Original Pretzel Chips. The Hummus was in an easy squeeze container, making it extremely convenient to take on the go. Our second favorite was the Raw Rev Glo Creamy Peanut Butter and Sea Salt Bar. The Raw Rev Glo Bar is packed with raw superfoods and contains 15g of protein; 14g of Fiber and only 2g of sugar. What a great subscription box to get into!
I look forward to my box every month, I have been receiving them for approximately 7-8 montages now and I don't think that I have ever had a problem with any of them, ever!!! I am diabetic, so once in a long while there may be something with a bit too much sugar or carbs, but it doesn't happen that often and when it does, I'm forced to share with my family (just teasing). They enjoy everything in them also
I love Love with Food! Great way to try new & different products (that I wouldn't typically try) for a great price. Great variety too.
Really enjoy the products contained within these boxes. Great selection and fair amount of products. There is always something new as well.
Love with Food is one of the only subscription boxes I have stuck with. They are one of the less expensive boxes and the items are always ones I enjoy. I like being able to try out different brands I normally wouldn't.
I LOVE Love with Food. They really seem to care about what they put in their boxes, unlike some other subscription boxes. Plus who can't love the fact that they donate a meal to a food bank for every box they sell?
Love with Food is a great snack box! I've tried the taster box which is $12 a month. They have a really nice array of healthy snacks and the themes are fun.
Check out my review of the March 2015 box:
Absolutely fabulous snacks delivered promptly to your home in beautiful packaging! Yummy!
This is a great box-Decently priced and you get a nice variety of snacks to try. And they are pretty tasty too. Plus they donate a meal for every box purchased.
I am on a diet and this box has some great healthy snacks. This really helps me stay on my plan.
Our company reviewed 5 healthy snack box subscriptions and LovewithFood was by far our favorite! You can read more of the review here: http://www.bestkeptself.com/2014/07/15/best-kept-review-healthy-snack-box-subscriptions/

Still breathing? Take another corporate thrill ride with CEO Christian Gillette.
©2006 Stephen Frey; (P)2006 BBC Audiobooks America
"While the story requires listeners to take some wild leaps of imagination...Holter Graham's use of a wide range of voices and emotions can't help but draw listeners in from the very first words. There's a sense of doom and foreboding, of expectation and terror as we try to distinguish the heroes from the villains, with the true motivations of all not revealed until the end." (AudioFile)
"not great"
A little over the top with the black power characters. Also the same regarding the white male conspiracy pulling all the strings. Many of the names get confusing as the author uses both first and last names back and forth so one forgets who is who.
"Entertaining "
I enjoyed listening to this story, though it has so many characters and took really long to connect them. I'm looking forward to the next book, the successor to see where it goes from here.
As for the narrator, he was good, but sometimes he didn't give proper distinction to the characters, so they sounded similar to other characters.
Overall, great story!

The historic King Ranch was one of the original developers of the Kingwood community, and was part of a joint venture with the Friendswood Development Company to develop the (then empty) track of land that is now Kingwood.
Land for Kingwood was also purchased by this joint venture from the Foster Lumber Company.
The historic King Ranch, the "Birthplace of American Ranching," is one of the largest and oldest active ranches in the United States. Founded in 1853, King Ranch was created after Captain Richard King traveled north from Brownsville to attend the Lone Star Fair in Corpus Christi.

My power puff girl faux fur side bag! What can get better than that? Nothing I tell you! So fluffy, and purple and amazing. I found it while cleaning up my basement, and since then it hasn't failed to amuse me.
Do your eyes hurt yet from all the shininess?
Everything I am wearing is thrift except for vintage glasses; Courage My Love and Doc Martens; Cinderella.
Now it's back to studying for me
Have A Super Sunday

So it looks like the latest iteration of Mortal Kombat might be making its way to PC. That's great news for folks who were bummed to see Mortal Kombat X get the technical ax on the platform earlier this year and, for those who don't mind working with a rough build, you can actually take Mortal Kombat XL for a test drive right now.
Ryan Winslett 2016-08-27
Xbox head honcho Phil Spencer and Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon had a friendly exchange on Twitter about the possibilities of a Mortal Kombat and Killer Instinct crossover. Nothing is set in stone but it sure is a mouthwatering idea.

There Could Be A Horror Movie Fighting Game Coming In The Future, According To Mortal Kombat Developer
Mortal Kombat has already made it possible to fight as famed horror icons, Jason Voorhees from Friday The 13th and the Predator, but what if NetherRealm Studios took that small DLC idea and turned it into an entire game? Well, NetherRealm director Ed Boon had something to say about that.
Kayla Herrera 2016-06-22
If you've ever wanted to have you very own statue of Mortal Kombat's reptile, well now's your chance. And it's an extremely detailed statue, too, which means the things comes with a pretty surprising price tag to boot.

Midway and Acclaim were known for having a ton of secrets in the games they released. Well, it turns out that the arcade machines for the first three Mortal Kombat games had a few more secrets than what people originally thought. Secret game menus that could access the dip switches without opening up the machines were recently discovered.

If the Fatalities in Mortal Kombat X make you squeamish you're really not going to like the real-life, live-action version of some of those Fatalities. The gory battles from the game are brought to life thanks to Australian YouTube group known as RackaRacka.
William Usher 2015-08-18
Mortal Kombat X hits the market next week, so NetherRealm isn't worried about secrecy anymore. Today, the company released the game's launch trailer, and every single character was on display.
Josh Engen 2015-04-06
Mortal Kombat has a long and storied history of gathering a lot of diverse and unique characters from across a wide spectrum of preferences. However, not every character is worth the time of day and there are some characters that you should never, ever play as.
William Usher 2015-03-24
In less than three days a new Mortal Kombat may be announced. Why this announcement is waiting to take place at E3? I don't know, but it's happening and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
William Usher 2014-05-31
In a recent interview at Comic-Con, a little bit of news slipped about a new Mortal Kombat. Apparently the season two producer for Mortal Kombat Legacy, Lance Sloane, didn't get the embargo on the news like everyone else.

If you couldn't get enough of Kevin Tancharoen's take of Mortal Kombat with his live-action webseries, Legacy, be prepared, as a second season is imminent. The original series was a direct tie-in for helping tell the back stories for the characters leading up to the release of the rebooted Mortal Kombat. Could it be possible that the second season indicates that yet another game is in the works?

Hard as it is to believe, it's been four years since I started college! I still remember those first few days of orientation like they were just a few weeks ago. During orientation and the early weeks of my first semester, I was excited, inspired, and totally overwhelmed. Nonetheless, I had a great time and got a great start to my college years. Today I'm sharing a few tips on how to make the most of your first week at college, and sharing a bit about my own orientation experience!
1. Be open
One thing that I was looking forward to about college was that it was a chance to start fresh. I was able to choose who I wanted to be, and that meant putting my best foot forward when it came to how I treated and interacted with others. During your first week of college, everyone around you will be nervous and eager to make friends, so do your best to come from a place of kindness and openness. You never know who could become your new best friend (or your lab partner)!
2. Say "yes" to new experiences
My orientation week was packed with activities, from hikes to beach days to parties! While I didn't have the energy to say yes to every event (and, in fact, taking some "me time" during orientation week is part of what helped me stay happy and well-rested!), I did my best to step out of my comfort zone. I signed up for an orientation trip, went to parties and dances, and did a couple unusual things too, like going to a Shabbat service and a Mormon meeting (I'm neither Jewish nor Mormon), just to try it.
Putting myself in these new situations helped me open up, meet new people, and feel more engaged with my campus. That was the best thing I could have done during my first week of college, and I can't recommend it more! Put yourself in new situations and try new things. Make memories that will last. At the same time…
3. Don't say "yes" to everything
It's good to try things outside of your comfort zone, but at the same time, don't say yes to anything you're not comfortable with, especially when it comes to things that concern your body or your feeling of safety. If you want to explore things that you haven't before coming to college, then that's great! But remember that you have several years on this campus to learn and grow and try anything you want. It doesn't have to happen right now. You're allowed to take your time.
And I'm sure you've heard it before, but I'll say it again because it's true and it's important: if you don't want to drink, you don't need to drink. If you don't want to try something that someone next to you is trying, you don't need to try it. And if you don't want to have sex even if someone is pressuring you to do so, you do not need to have sex. Never negotiate your comfort, safety, or values because of someone else. Period.
4. Explore your campus
In my first few days of college, one of my roommates and I went out to explore our campus. It was a great way to prepare for finding our classes later, but it was also just lovely to get to know our college and find some spots that we liked. So, don't just do what's on the orientation agenda — also take some time to explore campus with a new friend or classmate.
5. Explore your surroundings
If your college is in a small town or a big city (or near one!), get off of campus in the first few weeks to explore. Early on in my first year, I went into Boston with a friend to get a drastic haircut and go thrift shopping. It was really fun, but it also made me feel more comfortable about leaving campus, and it let me get to know the city a bit better. Take some time on a slow weekend to explore your surroundings off-campus. It'll be useful for a time when you need to get away, want to try something new, or just want to find a decent cup of coffee!
6. Connect with your roommates
On our first night of college, our RA gave my two roommates and me a short questionnaire to get to know each other better. Some questions were useful ("When do you like to get up?"), while others were funny or serious ("What's your favorite ice cream flavor? Who has had the biggest impact on you?"). The questionnaire was a great way to feel more connected to the people I'd be sharing a room with for the rest of the year, and it also made me feel less alone on my first night away from home.
When you come to college, make sure to take some time to be with your roommate(s) and get to know them better. Go out for coffee or ice cream, or do a quick grocery haul to stock up on midnight snacks together. Ask questions. Listen! This is a person you'll be sharing a lot of space with in the coming months. You want to make sure that the two of you get along, or, at least, can live with each other.
7. Host something in your room
One of my favorite memories from early in college was the "midnight tea circle" I hosted in our dorm room at the end of Orientation. I invited everyone I met and let them bring friends, and we ended up laughing and having a great time. It was a great way to introduce myself to new people and make our room a "hang out spot," and the tea circle even turned into a semester-long weekly tradition!
Point being: don't just rely on the orientation program or on others to make things happen. If you want a party, a Harry Potter night, or a museum outing, make it happen! Invite people, host, and plan. It will give you some great memories and a reputation as a welcoming and fun person.

I love this colorful video game!!!
Thanks HelloGames for bringing me back to when I was 8! :D This game is pure joy for all ages, and add on Hours upon hours of Solid replay value, and you have yourself one super fun, and ADDICTING game. And just to be clear, this is a game...... Reminds me so much of Nintendo!!! and I love that!
And the music is just sweet, albeit, it's a bit of a short and repetitive soundtrack , but that's alright. The few songs are plenty enough to make the experience lasting. So to cap it off, Joe Danger Touch, and more so, Joe Danger Infinity, are my favorite IOS games. :D
Just pure fun and laughs for all ages. Now how cool is that? You guys/girls at HelloGames are awesome!
WAS good.
I first got this game a few years ago maybe 3 years. I enjoyed it's amazing graphic design. It had a vast amount of colors making it seem like the characters themselves would light up the area. The game itself played smoothly. Worth the money. This was when i had an iPod 5. I have now upgraded to an iPhone 6s. Now, i don't know if it's the systems updates causing it but, there's no music... The music. I don't recall the way it sounded but that alone makes me not want to play the game. The music added so much to the experience I feel. It's a shame because I really wanted to play it again... I don't see myself enjoying the game until this problem is resolved.
Good game though.
Great Game/No Support for big prob easy fix
Love the game except for one huge glaring issue that should be an easy fix. The developer has abandoned the game and provided no updates or support since September of 2014 and now with the current iOS version the music no longer plays. I have emailed the developers and have received no response. I am sure it would be an easy fix. Maybe Apple needs to do a better job at keeping the App Store more up to date and after sending developers a notice and deadline to update their apps, yank them from the store until they comply. Of course previous buyers would be able to always access the game in there purchase history.

Jon Tobin is a relative newcomer to football, but that hasn't stopped him from excelling since picking up the sport four years ago.
Bob Humphreys first got involved with baseball way back in 1944.
He was listening to the radio broadcast of the 1944 World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the St. Louis Browns and instantly became a fan of the Cardinals and their outfielder/first basemen, Stan Musial.
"That was when I first started thinking about baseball and that I'd like to play ball," said Humphreys. "I got a thing off the back of a Wheaties box about pitching... I think it cost me a quarter. That's how I got started throwing the ball."
After cruising through the regular season and the conference and region playoffs, Jefferson Forest's girls soccer team was pushed to the brink, both mentally and physically.
It was a true test of tenacity and grit on June 9-10, as the Cavs left it all on the field in back-to-back shootouts en route to capturing the program's first ever 4A State Championship title.
Bedford County's high schools - Jefferson Forest, Liberty and Staunton River - each had strong showing at the State championship.
The Cavs competed in the 4A group, while Liberty and Staunton River battled in the 3A division.
Jefferson Forest
The Cavs found great success at the State championship, producing six top 10 finishes and a State champion.
The Lady Cavs were especially noteworthy, as they finished 18 out of 27 teams with 17.50 points.
Liberty softball enjoyed its deepest playoff run thus far, making it all the way to 3A West Region semifinal before being stopped by Patrick County.
Jefferson Forest's girls lacrosse team turned its slowest start into its best season, making it to the 3A West Region semifinal for the first time in program history.
After winning the National Conference Championship, the Cavs faced Hidden Valley on May 25 in the first round of regions. The Cavs were looking to avenge their quarterfinal loss to the Titans in 2016.
Jefferson Forest girls soccer couldn't of dreamed of a more dramatic ending in the 4A West Region semifinal to secure a berth in the State championship.
The Cavs had to wait until overtime, but it was worth the wait, as Erica Blankenship made her way through the defense and past the goalie to bury the winning goal with her left foot. She was immediately swarmed by over-joyed, estatic teammates, some of them who had waited since their freshman year to return to the 4A State championship.
Brady La Fon was born blue.
Staunton River's baseball team fell in the semifinals on the Conference 31 championship to Lord Botetourt, 4-0.
The Eagles had faced off against the Cavs on May 22, and narrowly lost 3-1 in 11 innings. Once again, the semifinal game on May 26 was decided in one inning.
Lord Botetourt scored all of their runs in the first inning, despite only one ball going past the infield.

i had good luck finding places for good beers through the board, so thought to ask about dinner.
After reading http://www.chowhound.com/topics/432290, i looked up numerous restaurants and found many of them serving food items (e.g. Hudson Valley foie gras, Maine lobster) available anywhere and also serving things that caring chefs shouldn't serve (e.g Chilean Sea Bass).
Are there any restaurants that have these three elements:
> regional, local ingredients
> somewhat trendy environment
> high-quality cooking
appreciate the thoughts in advance...

The Oregon Health Department highly recommends a pertussis booster for adults and children before the cold weather hits. The incubation period is 2 weeks and kids can be contagious for another 3 weeks after they feel well, during which time (3 or more weeks) they would have to be excluded from school. It's also a major health risk for the elderly and infants. Click here for more info; click here for a flier. For even more information, please call your doctor.
Many of our kids will be current because the DTap is required by state law for kids. But there is a window between when the child is eligible to receive the booster and when it is required. In this case the sooner the better. Maybe even more importantly the parents can be carriers because DTap boosters haven't been recommended for adults until the last couple of years.

Kitchen Cabinets for Optimum Use of Space
Cleanliness is next to Godliness, any home can be declared clean if one merely observes the kitchen and bathroom. The proper maintenance of our kitchen is directly linked with the health of our family members. We need to clean our kitchen cabinets frequently to ensure that bugs don't dominate our kitchen. In order to properly organize our kitchen and make it look spacious we need to start from stage zero my friend, Yeah you need to remove every utensil, electronic device and food items out and turn it into an empty room first.
It's easier to arrange the stuff in a room that is empty rather than the one which is totally filled with random objects. You can also install shelving to double your storage space. You will naturally come across with lot or maybe few utensils or devices which you can actually live without or which are outdated by now.
So it's best you throw them away. Kitchen cabinets are the magic wands here; they make it quite simple for us to arrange all that we need to turn our kitchen into a super kitchen. We need to organize cups, plates, pans, dishes etc. in such a way that we can easily access the ones we use every day. If you are still struggling with space you can place cleaning chemicals and supplies under the sink.

Tre' cool! It doesn't matter as much which turquoise you use, the copper that gives it the color is what causes the reaction. I'm getting ready to order some silver and copper frit from Devardi just to play with the color reactions.
I've got TONS of I-have-no-idea-where-I-got-it glass - a local lady was getting out of soft glass, and I purchased a good portion of her collection. She was running through everything so fast, I was just kinda smiling and nodding. I got a stick of GORGEOUS opalescent bright blue that I really adore, and have no clue where to get more - grump.

Promotional Vacuum Flasks & Thermos Flasks
Promotional vacuum flasks are a great customisable tool for your business that lasts for years and offers genuine value daily to those who us ethem. From classic Thermos branded custom flasks which come with a lifetime guarantee through to smaller personal models which hold ccvolume equivalent to a single cup the style ins tock can all be customised. Whether you're looking for a gift for hard working people who are often subject to the whims of the climate, through to a vacuum flask suitable for a chief executive's visit to a polo field the same basic toughness and the same principles of physics apply equally to both.
An insulated coffee flask is great for a variety of situations where you're looking to get the attention of somebody who appreciates things which quietly achieve results. For more information and advice on branding and distribution, call us now on 1800 129 999 to speak with a flask expert.
Using Promotional Vacuum Flasks In Marketing Activity
For a branded item with a useful purpose, and one that is made to travel vast distances, a vacuum flask can be appreciated by many different industries. From those in the restaurant business, to those in travel, a vacuum flask can be used by various audiences to allow recipients to take with them all of their favourite hot beverages or soups. A vacuum flask is a portable container able to keep its contents warm for prolonged periods of time, whether during travel or a typical workday, providing recipients with many opportunities to take their branded vacuum flasks out to face the public.
As a person travels with their vacuum flasks, or uses it in a public setting, those surrounding them will also be able to notice the branding placed on each item. Working as something of a travelling billboard for a brand, these flasks serve not only the function of convenience for the users, but an ideal advertising piece for the brand providing the gift as well.
Vacuum flasks are also products that may be shared, and as each person in a home or family has their turn with the product, the branding placed on it can be exposed to a wide array of different types of audiences.
Manufacture & Branding?
Vacuum flasks are often made of stainless steel, and this method of manufacture gives these products a way to last for many years of hard use while still remaining completely functional. Stainless steel provides the insulation a vacuum flask needs to keep its contents warm for hours at a time, and the material is durable enough to travel along wherever a recipient may decide to take their promotional gift.
Flasks made to suit different needs are available as well, and those for beverages, those for foods, and those which can work just as well for both may be branded to represent a particular company.
A laser engraving method is typically used to brand each vacuum flask, and this method allows the branding to keep its place on the product for its entire lifetime. Laser engraving uses laser technology to engrave a brand's logo, name, or message into the steel of each flask, so the wearing or rubbing off of branding is never a concern.
Promotional Case Study
A sporting goods brand hosting a grand opening event wanted to offer something to new customers to show their appreciation. Due to the time of year, their camping gear was being promoted in store, causing the brand to choose vacuum flasks as their promotional gift with purchase of any camping apparel or gear. These vacuum flasks were used often by recipients, and other customers began coming into the store long after the promotion asking about where they could acquire a flask of their own. After a plethora of inquiries, the brand began selling the branded flasks in store with a great deal of success.
Shipping & Distribution
While these are items which may be shipped, it is often more economically efficient to hand distribute them to recipients.

text: I am looking for a yellow cake with a passionfruit curd/filling. I remember reading somewhere that some new bakery perhaps in the village had this, but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone know where in Manhattan preferable I can get a cake with a passion fruit curd? I am not interested in the chocolate cake from Momofuko.
