Was this after the v1.1a patch?? I have no idea when it actually got approved so i don't know which version you would have played.
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Overall the game is mediocre. The games style is slow and the action is not very explosive. The controls are tough. The enemies are basic and hard to kill and dont leave you much chance against them. The glitches may be fixed but the game still needs improvement.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
Glitchiness and poor controls make this game unenjoyable, sorry
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars

it was cool right up to the part that i fell through the floor adn i coudln't get out, fix glitches and it AWESOME
I just released v1.1a which should fix some glitches including falling through the ground (hopefully).

The health care industry has discovered it can tap into the innovative wonders of an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 or an Android smartphone apps to avoid the rising medical costs -- bloated by expensive, complicated machines -- are wrecking the nation's economic health, while off-the-shelf consumer gadgets keep getting cheaper and more powerful.
Dr. Tom Lendvay, assistant professor of urology at the University of Washington, has studied whether warming up on a virtual reality simulator can improve a surgeon's performance on the operating table, and he now plans to study whether video games could also put a surgeon in the zone.
The problem with simulators is that they're too expensive to put outside every operating room. An Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 is not. That's why Lendvay wants to know whether a session of "Mortal Kombat" or some other game is a worthy alternative to warming up on a simulator.
"If you can pay for a video game versus $100,000 for a simulator," Lendvay said, "that's all you need to know."
Another cost-saving adaptation of gaming technology helps Dr. Brian Ross train medical students. The institute uses simulation technologies to teach medical skills, as well as to deliver instruction in fields such as business, bioengineering and computer science.
Because the hardware and software necessary to interact electronically with students is expensive, Ross set out to find a cheaper alternative. He found it when he noticed his son sitting in front of his Xbox wearing a headset that enabled him to banter with the other players participating in an online game.
By adding a camera to one console at each end, Ross realized he could turn two Xboxes into a video conferencing system that costs several hundred dollars instead of several thousand dollars for licensing, equipment and tech support. Ross used the system to show a group of students in Boise how to install a breathing tube, and has been using it for other training sessions ever since.
Ross wants to take his Xbox adaptation beyond video conferencing. He hopes to find a game engine developer or two that would be interested in creating virtual medical environments, such as emergency rooms, where students and doctors in different locations could train online through avatars -- i.e., digital characters -- representing each user.
Kinect's motion sensors -- which enable Xbox users to control the actions of their characters through their own movements and gestures -- could turn a virtual emergency room into a "very realistic" learning environment, Ross said.
"It's a really great product where there's a lot of opportunities to do a lot of things," says Howard Chizeck, an electrical engineering professor in the UW's Biorobotics Lab. "It's a very enabling device. It's the right thing at the right time."
A hospital in Toronto, for example, is using Kinect to allow surgeons to make hand gestures to control imaging systems while they operate. This eliminates the need for surgeons to leave the sterile field around the operating table whenever they want to pull up images from an MRI or CT scan. The time they save reduces costly delays.
Kinect's motion sensor technology provides a way to create three-dimensional models of patients that can be engineered to provide resistance feedback through the controls that guide the surgical instruments. Fredrik Ryden, a graduate student, is working with Chizeck and another electrical engineering professor, Blake Hannaford, to advance this approach.
Any such system that ultimately makes it to the operating room may or may not integrate Kinect's technology, but it will be based on research Kinect supported.
"Kinect gives us a really low-cost test bed for developing and testing the idea," Chizeck said.
Dr. David Loren is an assistant professor of pediatrics at the UW. One of the most important skills he must teach his students is how to interpret and process what they hear on a stethoscope. Before school starts this fall, Loren will have a new tool at his disposal -- an electronic stethoscope that uses an Android cellphone app to allow people wearing Bluetooth headsets to listen to the same sounds as the stethoscope's user.
"Students will hear what I hear at the same time I hear it, and I can talk about it with them in real time," he said. "It allows me to share not just what I'm hearing, but what I'm thinking."
The advantages of the new stethoscope extend beyond teaching students. In many cases, more than one doctor is involved in caring for the same patient, but they aren't in the same location. Now, everyone can listen to the same thing at the same time, which could improve the decision-making process.
"To me," Loren said, "it's a quantum leap."

Monday Night Football schedule 2013: Live Stream, watch online Miami Dolphins vs New Orleans Saints [ESPN start time]
Monday Night Football takes place tonight with the Miami Dolphins going on the road to take on the New Orleans Saints in what should be a great clash for fans.
Today's game features two teams that have gotten through the first three weeks of the season with perfect records. However, for one team tonight their unbeaten streak is about to come to an end. The game will start at 8.40 p.m. ET and can be watched on the ESPN network, or for those wanting to catch the game online, a live stream is provided free for ESPN subscribers via the link provided below.
The Dolphins have managed to come through three tight games, each time on the correct side of the result. To kick start their season they managed to hold off a strong challenge by Cleveland, winning 23-10. In week 2 they managed to gain a very good win over the Indianapolis Colts 24-20, which set them up for last week's visit from the Atlanta Falcons, whom they defeated 27-23 to go 3-0 for the season so far.
However, the Saints will not be fazed by the Dolphins, and they too stand at 3-0 coming into week 4. They also managed to defeat the Atlanta Falcons 23-17 in week 1, before claiming a two point win over Tampa Bay in week 2, in a 16-14 game. Then last week they let loose and destroyed the Arizona Cardinals 31-7, to come into this week 4 game full of confidence and hoping to go 4-0.
The Saints have been excellent on the pass, ranking 3rd in the NFL for pass yards per game, claiming an average of 318.7 yards per game. That has helped them to 6th in the league in total yards gained per game (404.3 yards). Standing behind their efficient offense has of course been quarterback Drew Brees who is 81 of 127 for 1,021 yards and six touchdowns.
Jimmy Graham has done fantastically well, receiving 23 for 358 yards and four touchdowns through weeks 1 to 3.
The Dolphins meanwhile will be hoping quarterback Ryan Tannehill can counter the threat from Brees, and so far Tannehill is 71 of 107 for 827 yards and four touchdowns.
Tonight's Monday Night Football game will start at 8.40 p.m. ET and can be watched online through live stream on ESPN by clicking here.

When I'm launching the simulator, nothing really happens, besides the white screen shows up. That is kind of annoying, I've been following the code throughout the book and expected that everything went smooth. Someone was able to fix this issue?
I had the same issue, until I found that I'd missed a bit. Check page 22 'Getting the view controller on the screen'. Without adding the two lines of code in this section you'll just get a white screen. Adding those lines fixed it for me.
You were write. I added the write code by the wrong order. I fixed it up. And it worked.
I got the same problem.I'm sure I'm not missing the part on Page22, but there is still a white-out after loading page.can anybody tell me why? Plz, this is truly frustrating.
I was receiving the same issue, I seemed to resolve the issue by going into the info.plist and deleting the whole row where it has "main" in the column "value". Hopefully this helps!
My code is same as book can anybody tell me whats the problem : am still facing the white screen.
(BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc]initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen]bounds]];// Override point for customization after application launch.
//creating instance of our custom VC classBNRQuizViewController *quizVC = [[BNRQuizViewController alloc]init];self.window.rootViewController = quizVC;
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
I have just tried that code, and it worked.
Are you sure your view controller's view itself is not blank?
Go change its background color to something other than white and try again.

Town of Salem
Naia posted a topic in Games & Video GamesLately, I've been rather addicted to Town of Salem. It is based heavily on the party game "Mafia". I've actually been an avid player of Werewolf on IRC before I discovered Town of Salem, which is pretty much the same thing but entirely text based. It's a detective style game that requires a lot of thinking, and I find it to be really fun. Does anyone else play this and potentially want to play it with other Kinmunity members sometime? My name on there is UlvWolf.

The unions, particularly the CFMEU and the ETU, have attempted to portray the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement (ChAFTA) as an evil that will undermine Australia's way of life and living standards when the exact opposite is the case.
The unions' motives need to be questioned because their misleading campaign coincides with the Royal Commission's exposure of CFMEU conduct which is totally out of line with community standards of behaviour.
Not only is the CFMEU and ETU campaign politically driven, their claims are simply not supported by the facts.
ChAFTA is one of many bilateral free trade agreements Australia has signed with our key trading partners in recent times, with the list of partners including Korea and Singapore. These agreements deliver economic benefits to the Australian community. ChAFTA also builds on our deep existing economic and cultural ties with China that have been built up over many decades.
China is Australia's largest two-way trading partner in goods and services (valued at $160 billion in 2013-14) and in goods export (valued at $100 billion in 2013-14). For our industry, Chinese investment is a major driver of construction activity particularly in our major cities such as Sydney. China is the largest source of overseas students studying in Australia, which helps attract investment in new residential building, especially high-rise apartments as well as student accommodation. As the second largest source of visitors to our shores, China is also a major engine of tourism revenue and related construction including hotel accommodation.
Based on analysis by the Centre for International Economics (CIE), the economic benefits of Australia's North Asian Free Trade Agreements for our industry and the community from ChAFTA will be higher output by an estimated $1 billion and more job creation with an estimated 538 new jobs being created every year for 20 years.
The CFMEU's scaremongering mostly revolves around incorrect and misleading claims that lack any cogency whatsoever. The union's contention that ChAFTA will lead to a tsunami of unqualified, unskilled, underpaid Chinese building workers invading Australian building sites and stealing Australian jobs is wrong.
Contrary to what the unions would have us believe, construction industry related 457 visa holders represent only one per cent (10,660) of total Australian construction industry employment.
In fact, employers in our industry use local skilled workers in 99.7 per cent of building and construction employment and access foreign workers only in the case of unique skills shortages, particularly in remote locations.
The Government has confirmed that under ChAFTA the current checks and balances with regard to foreign workers such as those on 457 visas will remain in place. In response to Master Builders' inquiries, the Government advised that under ChAFTA, skills assessments required for workers seeking temporary 457 visas do not change and consequently there will no diminution of licensing requirements or safety standards.
Construction firms wishing to engage 457 visa workers will need to ensure applicants can demonstrate to the Immigration Department that they possess the necessary skills to work in Australia, including work history, skill qualifications and English language skills. An additional skills assessment will be conducted by an RTO approved by Trades Recognition Australia if required by the Immigration Department, bringing temporary skilled migration arrangements with China in line with other major Australian trading partners including Japan, South Korea and the United States.
Workers from China will also have to comply with respective State and Territory skills requirements including in the important area of safety.
As Master Builders told the Parliament's Joint Standing Committee on Treaties, we carefully considered ChAFTA before giving it our strong support. One of the key questions of course was whether the workers from China on 457 visas will be able to meet the high standards demanded on Australia's building and construction sites. Master Builders was satisfied that all the appropriate checks and balances are in place to make sure that this will be the case and, where non-compliance occurs, that there are appropriate processes in place that can quickly deal with it.
Master Builders also considered the important question of whether, in an overall sense, ChAFTA will take work away from us. Master Builders came to the view that the free trade agreement building work should actually increase investment in offices, factories and warehouses as more and more Australian companies increase their exports to China. This will particularly be a major boon for contractors in the regional areas as they increase their exports of our primary products to China.
ChAFTA allows Australian companies to significantly expand their markets into China, to take advantage of the re-balancing of the Chinese economy toward more consumer-based consumption to meet the needs of the very rapidly growing middle class.
On the flip side, it will also allow more investment dollars to flow from China into Australia, subject of course to our foreign investment criteria. Admittedly, this has been controversial and is likely to continue to be so. Nevertheless, China - like other countries - will play an important role in bringing investment capital into Australia, investment that is critically important if we are to fund our infrastructure and other economic needs to maintain our high living standards.
This investment can be expected to flow across all sectors of our industry, particularly for construction, in agriculture and aquaculture building, hotel and serviced apartments, education and entertainment and recreation.
Master Builders' vision is for a stronger building industry with an environment that supports our members to grow more successful and profitable businesses, which is why we strongly support ChAFTA and the benefits it will bring to our industry and our community.
Well said.
The campaign of unions and in particular the CFMEU is irresponsible and wrong.
In order to create jobs in the future, Australia cannot be backward looking. We must move forward. We must embrace our biggest trading partner and the potential benefits which our ongoing trading relationship with China should deliver. This deal will create opportunities, not destroy them.
The unions would have some fair points if this deal somehow weakened protections under the foreign worker program. But it doesn't, and they are wrong in saying it does.
Most Australians want this free trade deal. The unions should get out of the way.
Some of the claims about "skills shortages" pushed by some building industry lobby groups in support of the FTA are questionable, if one reads current data from the Commonwealth Department of Employment and Training DET.
According to the Department of Employment, "employers continued to recruit skilled workers with little difficulty in 2014", "consistent with the softness in the labour market". Further, "with the demand for skilled workers relatively subdued over the past few years, and historically high numbers of graduates entering the labour market from both higher education and vocational education and training, long standing shortages across many occupations have been addressed".
The Department notes that "shortages of skilled workers are limited both geographically and by occupation, and the number of occupations in shortage is low by historical standards"

ICFJ's Patrick Butler (left) tells moderator Dave Callaway, CEO of TheStreet, that U.S. media should form partnerships with international investigative news groups.
"Global misinformation is a staggering trend in its scope and intensity," said Nicco Mele, director of the Shorenstein Center at Harvard University.
Dear Friend,
In celebration of World Press Freedom Day on May 3, we urge you to get behind our efforts to support reporters who speak truth to power. One of them is Mónica Almeida, an Ecuadorean journalist working for the independent daily El Universo.
The International Center for Journalists is saddened by the loss of our founder and first President George Krimsky, who passed away from lung cancer on Jan. 20. A seasoned correspondent, George launched our organization in 1984. He ran ICFJ programs for more than a decade for our colleagues overseas. He was passionate about his work—and never stopped supporting us throughout the years.
Over the years, I personally received heart-warming messages from him. He was truly proud of our work—and of the amazing ICFJ staff.
In April 2014 I attended the first U.S. gathering of Chicas Poderosas, a network created by International Center for Journalists' Knight Fellow Mariana Santos. The goal was to give Latina reporters skills that would make them digital news leaders. Santos had worked with Latin American journalists, and now she was targeting Miami.
As the head of the International Center for Journalists, I constantly try to assess the future of our field. The technology is evolving at a dizzying rate, transforming everything about our profession. I now own an Apple Watch, so I can talk from experience about "glance journalism" and "snackables," bite-sized pieces of information that appear regularly on my wrist.
But what interests me most now are not the appetizers or the new gadgets, but the new voice of journalism.
We generally think of technology transfers going in one direction: from the developed North to the developing South.
When we designed our new Knight International Journalism Fellowships, which foster a culture of news innovation—we anticipated customizing and spreading U.S. technology around the world.
And we are. Our Knight Fellows, some of the most talented global media entrepreneurs, are taking tools such as Document Cloud, Google Fusion Tables and Data Wrapper and embedding them in newsrooms.
This piece was originally published on the Global Forum for Media Development (GFMD)'s website.
Some moments in history seem ideal for helping the media to develop. Right before and after the Arab Spring, the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) saw tremendous opportunity to help Egyptian journalists produce investigative pieces and to train bloggers and other citizen journalists and link them with mainstream media.
How do we define journalism in an era of sweeping change? In a speech to students at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication, Knight Foundation's Eric Newton ventured far into the past—and far into the future—to try to answer that question.

Information contained herein is believed to be reliable but is not guaranteed
A clean, orderly home with everything you need to be comfortable and more. Very well equipped kitchen plus at barbecue on the deck (we used it). Lots of amenities like videos and games. There seemed to be extras of everything. Everything seemed clean and well maintained. We also used the bikes for a ride. It is a way to Sunriver Village, but we learned the North Store is close by. There are no bath mats in the two tub/shower combinations. We did not like sliding around in the tubs and worrying about falling. The towel rack on the shower door in the master bath was loose and could not be depended upon for balance or safety. We informed the staff of these two safety issues. The overall experience was very positive. We would go there again.
Our two families shared a wonderful holiday at the condo, and there was plenty of space for all 8 of us!
Fun set up for groups and families. Love the grassy area and pool. Sharc passes were great. Nice bike trail along the Deschutes and along the lakes.
The house was nice with many of the amenities of a hotel making the stay easy. However it was some distance from the conference center. We were staying on business so that was a bit of a downfall. We would have liked to have been walking distance, but misjudged the map when booking. However for a personal vacation with a small party I would recommend.
Clean, updated and all the appliances and kitchen ware we needed. Furnishings were outstanding and we felt right at home. Nice hot tub!!! Lots of room.
This was just the perfect property for our trip to Sunriver for a weekend of skiing. We had two families with a total of 4 kids. Great location. Enjoyed the movie and game collection and the hot tub when we were at the condo. We loved the kids bunk room. I do think it would be nice if they got bunk mattresses for the top (they are not as deep) so that the rail would prevent someone rolling off the bed. We just stuffed a pillow in the crack and had the older kids sleep on top, but that would be an improvement. Great condo for the price. Thank you!

Disclaimer: I own nothing
A/N: Yay, my first Kuroshitsuji story! I've never written anything like this before, so I hope that I'll do a good job. I'll try to keep everyone in character. Though if Sebastian seems ooc in some parts, I remind you that we don't really know what he's like outside of his butler-persona.
Enjoy! And please excuse the fairytale-like opening. Btw, demons age A LOT slower than humans.
For demons, family bonds usually weren't very tight. As mostly solitary creatures, it was a nuisance to have other people around and have to share food. Most parents actually killed their off-spring in order to preserve resources. Besides, there were enough demons in the world already. But in some cases, having a child was absolutely necessary. Such a case was the royal family.
The king had been on the throne for as long as anyone could remember. He was very strong and wise, but as he became older his cruelty increased. He would send diseases and cause wars in the human world. He would randomly slaughter his own people just to see their blood spill. His wife feared that an enemy might come to destroy him one day, so she decided that they should have a child in order to keep the throne safe. Although the king was loathed the idea of children, he saw sense in her plan. And so they had a son, a beautiful boy with black hair and red eyes. The queen loved him from the start, but when the king looked at him he only saw his good looks and youth. Those traits caused the king to resent his son.
The boy fit the role of "prince" perfectly. As he grew he became more and more handsome. He excelled in his studies, music, and art. He was very wise and he knew what was best for his people. He was so cunning, even the most pious humans would sell their souls to him. All of the women wanted to be with him. By the age of one thousand, he was absolutely perfect. Well, to most people anyway.
His relationship with his father had never been very good. To him, his son was just a constant reminder that he was getting older and weaker. He also saw how the way the people of the kingdom adored him. The king would often berate him, saying that he wasn't worthy to be king, let alone his son. He would humiliate him and often spread rumors about him throughout the castle. If he didn't do something exactly the way the king wanted it, he would have his son beat in public. He would complain about him to the queen until she, too, came to hate him.
Unfortunately for him, he didn't see the way his son would glanced at the throne or the crown enviously. He didn't see how his son's eyes would would at him in a calculating way and the smirk that sometimes appeared on his mouth. You see, the prince was planning on taking his father's throne. He knew that everyone secretly hated his father(including himself). He also knew that many people wanted him as king, and that he had the skills and knowledge to do it. He had built up a secret army and several strategies over the years. He just needed the right moment to strike.
The moment came one night after he returned from a fencing tournament. He was going to his mother's room to tell her how it went. But when he knocked on her door he didn't receive an answer. The queen was usually in her apartments at this time of day, so this was rather odd. After hesitating a moment, he opened the door a bit and looked inside. He immediately wished he hadn't, for he saw his parents in a rather...intimate position. They were sleeping side by side, but it was obvious that they weren't wearing any clothes. The prince took a step back, but the noise caused his father to wake up and see him. The king immediately became furious and shot a bolt of fire at his son. The prince managed to prevent serious harm from coming to his body, but he was still singed badly. As he ran out of the castle he realized that his chance had come. He didn't want to go down in history as a tyrant who stole his father's crown. So his father attacking him like that was the perfect excuse to wage war on him.
He set up his base in a fortress that he secretly built in the mountains. When it became known to everyone what he was doing, many of the people came to support him. With a strong army, cunning mind, and support of his people, the prince was sure to reign victorious. But he didn't realize just how strong the king's army was. Although he was hated, he was still the king, and when there was something he hated, it was destroyed. Their armies were equally matched and fought for months without getting anywhere. Then something happened that would change everything.
The queen had apparently left the castle and was seeking him out. He immediately thought it was a trap since he knew that she had sided with his father, but he allowed her into the fortress anyway. He was shocked when he saw her, because he had never seen her looking so scared and unkempt before. He had also never seen her abdomen so round before. When he questioned her, she revealed that she was pregnant. When the king had found out, he tried to kill her so he wouldn't have another child that would betray him. She managed to escape him and decided that her son was the best person to go to for protection. She would even give him the child if he wanted.
He allowed her to stay for the sole reason that he was curious about his unborn sibling. He had spent many years as an only child and had never thought of having a brother or sister. He also realized that if he raised the child himself, there would be little to no chance of it betraying him one day. The queen was very old, and her second pregnancy was taking its toll on her. She was bedridden for many months after she arrived. The prince only went to visit her to see if her child was still healthy. He kept her in a small, dark, yet heavily guarded room with nothing to do. On occasion, he would have her interrogated to see if she knew any of his father's plans. She was often miserable, which brought a smile to her sadistic son's face. He was never the forgiving type.
On the day she went into labor, he could hear her screams of pain from a mile away. When the child was finally born the prince ordered that it be brought directly to him. It was a baby boy who was almost cherubic in looks(something only royalty could accomplish). He had blue hair and beautiful blue eyes, which was unheard of. Demons usually had either red, yellow, or black eyes. As he looked at his brother, a sudden feeling of warmth came over him. He held the baby close and bent his head down to nuzzle him, which caused the baby to coo and tug on his hair. Suddenly, a doctor came from his mother's room. The doctor told him that the queen was unwell and if she didn't receive the proper medicine-which they didn't have- she would die soon. The prince took another look at his brother before telling the doctor to leave his mother be and walking away. The queen was dead within a few hours.
The prince was surprised to find that he actually loved his brother. He hated his father and he was only on civil terms with his mother. But he actually felt a bond with this angelic looking demon, and he devoted all his spare time to him. He taught his brother to do everything from fighting to music to etiquette. And his brother seemed to like him and no one else. He would be very affectionate with the prince but only showed strained politeness to others. The prince was also happy when he saw the the child's demon mark was located in his eye. This meant that he would become very powerful one day. Powerful enough to help defeat their father.
After fighting for nearly four hundred years, the prince's armies finally gained an edge. The prince decided that this was his chance to finally dispose of his father. After borrowing power from his brother, he led his men to his father's castle. While they fought, the prince sought the king out. It seemed the king had been expecting him though, because he held a large sword and shield. Under normal circumstances, they would be evenly matched. But with the extra power from his brother, the prince managed to, finally, kill his father.
Despite what he thought, not everyone in the kingdom wanted the old king gone. He actually had a secret group that vowed to protect him. They were very angry at the prince for his treachery, so they began to plan their revenge. On the day the prince was to be crowned king, they moved their plan into motion. They managed to lure the younger prince away from the throne room to a more isolated place in the castle. Once there, they performed a spell that would change him into a human with no memories of his demon life. They figured since the older prince got rid of the most important person in their lives, they would get rid of the most important person in his life.
When the new king discovered what had happened, he was beyond angry. He sentenced the group to be tortured by the most sadistic people in the kingdom for the rest of their lives. His rage also created a disease in the human world which killed millions with a few short years. When a demon feels extreme emotions, their dark energy leaks out and causes havoc. He enjoyed taking his pain out on these creatures. He knew what most of them were really like and felt they deserved it.
He vowed that one day he would find his brother and bring him back home. Even if it took the rest of time. Until then, he would be the best king he could be.
A/N: Long prologue is long. Seriously, I didn't think it would turn out to be this long.
And that my children is the story of how Sebastian spread the Black Death. Okay, jk. This is the background for the rest of the story. Next chapter will have the same Ciel and Sebastian we all know and love. And dialogue!
Remember, if you have any suggestions or comments to leave a review!

Catalyst as an example of something that generates tests, not as an

which is why I know what the internals look like.

The History of the Mexican American Civil Rights Movement designates four major episodes of the Mexican civil rights struggle in the United States. Chapter One features efforts of the "lost-land" generation (southwest Mexican natives) to stem property losses, maintain their culture and assert civil rights given them by the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo after the US takeover of the Southwest in the mid-nineteenth century. The second portion, Chapters Two to Five, views immigrant attempts in the early part of this century to protect themselves from a hostile American public. In the effort to safeguard their civil rights, an elaborate Mexico Lindo (Pretty Mexico) nationalism emerged that immigrants used to rally around issues of repression. Chapters Six and Seven look at the optimistic Mexican American generation made up primarily of children of immigrants who did not have ties to Mexico. Not only did this generation demand the civil rights to which they were entitled, but they also strove to acculturate to Anglo American culture without turning their backs on their Mexican heritage. In addition, Mexican Americans in this era made the greatest attempts to empower themselves as workers. The final and most lengthy section of the book traces the evolution of the Chicano Movement and assesses its legacy. It takes the reader through the most turbulent days of civil unrest and grass-roots organizing in Mexican American history.

In its long and solid history of creating dance experiences for television, the ''Great Performances: Dance in America'' series has achieved a high point with ''A Hymn for Alvin Ailey.'' The filmmaker Orlando Bagwell uses Judith Jamison's ''Hymn'' as a departure point for an even larger look at Ailey, his work, his dancers and what they have meant to audiences around the world.
Ms. Jamison's 1993 dance took interviews with Ailey dancers, sensitively conducted and edited by the playwright and performance artist Anna Deavere Smith, and put them together with a driving musical score by Robert Ruggieri. Ms. Jamison's choreography is a fusion of African, jazz and modern-dance styles informed by the dancers' ballet training. What emerged from ''Hymn'' was an evocation of Ailey and his dancers and how they interacted to create classics of American modern dance like ''Revelations'' and ''Cry.''
''A Hymn for Alvin Ailey'' also includes scenes of Ailey as a young dancer and of Ms. Jamison in ''Cry,'' as well as interviews with Ailey over the years and a glimpse of his being celebrated at the Kennedy Center Honors performance in 1988. There is also a haunting art-film clip of Ailey in a subway station along with views of the memorial service held for Ailey, who died in 1989, at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, where the program opens.
Mr. Bagwell, a producer for the PBS series ''Eyes on the Prize,'' adds material from interviews conducted with longtime Ailey colleagues, among them a poetic Carmen de Lavallade and a sharply analytical George Faison. Jack Mitchell recalls photographing Ailey over the years. Sylvia Waters, the director of the Ailey junior troupe, talks about Ailey the man with perceptive warmth, and Masazumi Chaya, the associate artistic director of the senior company, speaks about the choreographer and his work with poignant, eloquent simplicity. Ms. Jamison and Ms. Smith are the connecting threads through the program, as they are in ''Hymn'' itself.
Beautifully photographed and edited, by Michael Chin and Jean Tsien respectively, ''A Hymn for Alvin Ailey'' offers a record of powerful dancing. It is very likely to serve as a compelling primer for people new to Ailey's work as well as material for thought for those familiar with it.
It is possible to see the Ailey style close up and held nearly still in time, for example, in the rooted bodies of the opening moments of ''Hymn.'' And the style is revealed as a complex amalgam of theatricality and dance forms rather than more easily dismissable theatricalized jazz dance, for which Ailey was sometimes criticized.Continue reading the main story
The tributes paid to Ailey and Ms. Jamison late in the program occasionally sound a little pat and repetitive. And Ms. Smith's presence is sometimes jarring and confusing. But ''A Hymn for Alvin Ailey'' gives words as eloquent as Ailey's best choreography to what he expressed without words in those dances.

"lack of information"
About: Sunderland Royal Hospital Sunderland Royal Hospital Sunderland SR4 7TP
Posted via NHS Choices
i was refered to the Early Pregnancy Information unit in october 2014 as i had started to bleed and i was about 10-11 weeks. They did a scan and told me that they thought the prenacy was going to be a misscarriage and that i needed to come back in 1 weeks time. I then went back in 1 week time they re scaned me and told me that it was a misscarriage and the baby had not developed. on the scan the lady told me she thought i had an infection. when i went to see the nurses they informed they asked me did i have an infection to which i replied i was not sure as this was the first time i had been pregnacy. i was then informed that i would need to go to my gp to get some antbiotics. I contacted my gp practice to make an appointment for a few days time. i went to see my gp adn when i informed them what the unit had said and they were confused which anitbiotics to given as they were not sure what kind of infection it was (i was not told this and the letter for my gp had not been sent out). A few days later i conatcted D47 as the bleeding was getting worse and the hca asked me to come to the ward and my name. I went to the ward and when i got to the nurses station a staff nurse asked me who i was and what i was doing on the ward. I informed the staff nurse that i infroemd by a hca to come to the ward and she replied really. (i would not speak to my patients or family members like this) The hca said yes i took the phone call informed a member of staff. i was then told to have a seat in the treatment room on the chair not the bed. i waited a few hours to be seen by a doctor and did thte tests that where needed. They discharged me and told me that if i had any problems i had to come back to the ward. A few hours later i eneded up on the ward with been unwell and bleeding. the night staff were very nice and treatment was 10/10. i got discharged home the next day.

"Shrimp and scallops join the traditional pepperpot ingredients, bell peppers, onion, okra, and garlic, yielding a lower fat version of the stew which can be cooked in a fondue pot in a hotel room and served over cooked barley, orzo, rice, couscous, or even coo-coo. To speed up the preparation buy just the amount of pre-chopped vegetables you need at a local salad bar; any color combination of bell peppers works well in this stew. Purchase fresh or frozen shrimp and scallops by the piece at the seafood counter of the local market. Use couscous, groats, coo-coo, or even quinoa. Cook it all in your hotel room for a healthy filling meal."

- 1 -2 garlic clove, minced
- 2 cups red bell peppers, chopped (in 1/2 inch pieces)
- 4 ounces fresh okra, trimmed and cut in 1/2 inch pieces
- 1⁄2 fresh jalapeno chilie, diced
- 1 cup fat-free low-sodium chicken broth, divided
- 1⁄2 cup clam broth

- 1⁄4-1⁄2 lb sea scallops
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, minced
- 1 teaspoon orange zest or 1 teaspoon lemon zest or 1 teaspoon lime zest, grated
- 1⁄2 loaf artisan bread or 1⁄2 loaf whole wheat baguette
- Put dry couscous in a 1 quart container.
- In a large (3 quart) stainless steel electric fondue pot heat 3/4 - 1 cup water (or chicken broth if you have more than you need for the stew) to boiling. Unplug the fondue pot and pour the boiling water over the couscous; stir to moisten all the couscous. Cover the bowl with a plate or towel. Set aside.
- Plug in the fondue pot again and heat the oil or butter on medium. Saute fresh okra until browned. (If using frozen okra, add it later with the shrimp.) Add onion, garlic, jalapeno, and bell peppers and cook stirring for 15-20 minutes, adding a little water if necessary to prevent sticking.
- Stir in tomatoes, clam and chicken broth, bay leaf, thyme, and ground black pepper to taste.
- Reduce heat and cook on slow simmer for 20 minutes, or until veggies are softened. Add more chicken broth or water if the liquid boils away too quickly.
- Add shrimp, scallops, and frozen okra if using, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cook until shrimp turn pink and scallops are opaque.
- Uncover the couscous (which has now absorbed the water), fluff with a fork, and place about 1/2 cup couscous in each of two or three bowls or plates.
- Unplug the fondue pot, remove the bay leaf then ladle the pepperpot stew over the couscous equally distributing shrimp and scallops in the bowls or plates, top with cilantro and grated citrus rind.
- Serve warm with crusty chunks of whole wheat artisan bread or baguette to soak up the juices if desired.

Don't worry Brad, the more veteran gamers among us know full well that multiplayer games (especially those which are peer-to-peer based and/or rely on some sort of central server system) know full well that it takes some time to get everything setup just right. Its very difficult to test for real-world conditions and I don't blame you for some of the issues that do exist due to the excess traffic. You guys are doing a good job so far and some people should just have a little patience (especially considering the whole gamestop debacle which isn't fair to you guys).
While I can't talk for everyone else, the game has been working at 100% for me. I have yet to see any bugs or experience a crash and have not had any difficulty connecting to other players, or in hosting games. The game does indeed work quite well, provided you aren't using a convulted network setup at home that isn't setup properly.
1. Nice update. Thanks for keeping us informed as always.
2. You might ask GameSpot to take another look in a week and issue an update. Something worth looking into, if you haven't considered it already.
3. Way too greedy as Oak in that video.
Thanks for the update. I was shocked to see you guys rewrote the connection service in ~2 days. I look forward to your next update.
We're in the process of packaging an update now.
nice to hear and btw maybe you want to update the society page a bit. you are waayy behind the schedule written there
Excellent job. I'm impressed with your staying power, as I can only go 36 or so hours before I need a good night's rest.
Mind if I pick your brain as to the status of the favor reset / negative bug?
Maybe you're playing a hero not your style? I could win in a 1v3 against Normal AI as Unclean Beast (except in Domination, which emphasizes team size differences much more), let alone a fair match.
When thoses web services calls are made in the warez/retail version? Before or after clicking on multiplayer?
I think that one particular item in the Gamer's Bill of Rights, which is the ability to play single player without requiring to connect to internet should be rewritten this way:
- don't connect to Internet UNLESS required, even if available.
And unless the user chooses multiplayer on Internet, there is no need to try to connect to stardock servers even to check if an update is available.
Thank you for keeping connected with us Frogboy, you have no idea how much it means to your fan base here to read a status update like this, it really renews the faith and keeps us connected to what's going on so we don't feel so lost and abandoned (even though it's obvious you guys are working on all the issues).
Anyways, great post, so excited to see Demigod shine like we all know it's supposed to. Don't worry about that Gamespot review, they only knock the connection issues, the core game itself is all there, and it's awesome.
It's nice to see an update being worked on and appiled so speedily I hope it means that I'll be able to enjoy the game that I've already paid for.
The Warez server issue sounds like an oversight. Warezing players shouldn't be pulling down paying customers.
Maybe I'm just not able to optimize my demigod well enough, or I was playing the Unclean Beast very badly. I just tried a 1vs3 as Sedna vs Beast, Rook, and Regulus on the same map (Crucible) to see if I was right about her being nigh-unbeatable. Well the game did last an entire 50 minutes, but I still did lose. The Unclean Beast was actually the only one able to clean my clock, his damage-over-time spit + melee + ooze aura killed me extremely fast, and since the spawn was set at the default 20 seconds + 2 seconds every death (or something like that), I was getting knocked out of action for half a minute at a time near the end.
It was my first time playing Sedna and I might've done her skills really badly though, the only skill I was able to max out by level 20 were the Yetis. I was able to push the enemy back over and over so long as I didn't get ganked by the beast, but with just one demigod I wasn't able to destroy their fortresses. The Normal AI must know how to kit the beast out a lot better than I did, or I didn't maximize my healing aura enough. I've no idea.
I noticed that the enemy team's War Rank was going up much faster than mine, the funny thing is this was happening even before they started to win any ground against me. So they weren't getting more kills or wrecking towers yet but their tower was developing faster, unlocking things like the forts long before I got the same. I figured since Frogboy had mentioned their intention of setting 1 experienced player versus 3 inexperienced players in the matchmaker there'd be a way to win, but I suppose I'm just not that good at it.. Actually, I think the Normal AI is just smart enough not to make the mistakes that a team of inexperienced players would have to make in order to let an expert solo player beat them.
(edit) Just seems to me that the way the tower gets upgraded, and thus the reinforcements and fortifications also get stronger, this game isn't set up at all for the mismatched teams mentioned in the day zero post, that's the whole point of my last paragraph. I really can't think of a single RTS played in recent history that I wouldn't call 'imbalanced' though. Losing in a 1vs3 match, and losing in a 3vs3 match where the teams are as mismatched as they can get, isn't really grounds to call Demigod unbalanced.
hi i live 20 minutes from your building, want to give me a job?
You're the guy that admitted you hadn't bought the game and was complaining about it as your pirated version wasn't working right?
Thanks for the update, feedback appreciated
Cheers; Snarl
can't wait for this update to be out. thanks for the report
i really like the status reports, but reading this there is one big question forming up in my head:
Why the hell didn't you guys expect something like this to happen? I mean come on - basically it really IS kind of a DotA rip off (not saying your work is not good) with awesome graphics but which plays kind of slow and has about 50 heroes less. Anyway, my point is, many (and i really mean many) players have been actually waiting for something similar to DotA, but better looking or new in some way, because games get boring by time. Seriously, if you guys would have taken a better look at the international DotA (and over all gamer) scene, you would've known what is coming at you and in the end probably managed to get it work the first days and so on...
just my opinion.
anyway, you guys did a great job with the game and i really want to start playing it right
Looks like the new patch was just released,
I am a patient boy, I wait I wait I wait I wait...
jk, Ever the humanist, I'm perfectly willing to be patient while some issues get hammered out. I guess gamespot isn't. alas.
Thanks for the update, and the upcoming patch!
Thanks for the Update, I appreciate being kept up to date . I tend to be a lot more sympathic when there are logical yet unforseen reasons behind problems.
Gamespot also criticised Demigod for a lack of story driven campaign, hence calling it an unfinished product. But if you look at Battlefield 2, it has a story, but it doesn't have a story driven campaign either. I think to overlook that for Battlefield 2 and give it a 9.3 but criticise Demigod for the same issue is a double standard on Gamespot's part. Clearly both Battlefield 2 and Demigod are multiplayer-centric games, it seems inappropriate to criticise Demigod for a lack of single player campaign when the fun is focused on multiplayer. I used to refer to gamespot's reviews before purchasing my games, but now I can clearly see how inconsistent they are with their review standards, I'm going to just rely on metacritic from now on.
Or the bug in the game that would allow you to simulacrum ERIKA! Now talk about ass-wiping power right there
good read, now this is feedback from a publisher, where else would u see stuff like this?
Thanks Brad for the update.
I have to say; don't bother review, they are always wrong. The good one and the bad one. 10 of 10? Ridiculous. Why? How can a review can be so accurate to give a perfect score to a game that can't actually be played properly in multiplayer where 90% of the game resides. The same way a review that give 6.5 take care of the fact that it has a lot of connection issue, but not the fact that it can improve a lot in that in a possibly short time (for that should exist post update review). Given that 6.5 is not that bad: it's more than sufficient and you made a game with good but limited contents (good graphics, few demigod, few combination, few maps, no story driven campaign, a bit unpolished) not so expanded but enjoyable (with still some flaws like balance). I think it's fair enough. You wanted more? Not saying anything about that 10 of 10 and assuming that fair it's a bit naive and pretentious. Also users score on gamespot is near 7.8 so I think that that count more and it's a good and more realistic score.
Being or not being a great fault, it's still developers fault if a game don't come out well in the first days. You proved many times how good can be your works. This time you made a short call but I think that time will correct it and usually your game sell a fair amount even after month. If you need good review to do that...
Still I have faith.,,
One things i don't understand. The thing about pirate connection attempt. I thought you needed to log in with your account to play in multiplayer so how come this turn out to be a problem? Shouldn't it be like trying to login on a forum with the wrong user and pass?
A competitive multiplayer game aimed at the Warcraft market suffers piracy? What a surprise?
Server-side authentication is the best way to kill this pretty much instantly. Everyone's got a profile, linked to a key, so this system is obviously flawed. It's not wrong to have robust authentication when you're doing the hosting for the tournament/etc.
Because the game checked for available updates when started, not after login has been made .
In short, even if you xanted to play a single player game, the game connected to Stardock servers to see if an update was available.

Attention! You have two hours to finish up your whatever before lunch and zip over to the City Hall Plaza to see Genius Award nominees Industrial Revelation today! It will be hands-down the most fun you've had on your lunch break in a while. Unless you eat lunch at GameWorks (mad respect).
The concert is part of the Out to Lunch series. It's 100% free and will go from noon until 1:30.
Here's IR's excellent Genius profile by Charles Mudede, and this thing I wrote after I saw them for the first time.


text: The U.S. Navy awarded Lockheed Martin a $20.8 million contract to deliver the first Aegis Combat System upgrade ship-set for a cruiser modernization program. The upgrade will extend the life, enhance the capability and improve the operational cost efficiency of up to 22 existing Aegis-equipped cruisers. The first cruiser modernization combat system upgrade ship-set will be installed aboard by USS Bunker Hill (CG 52). In addition, the contract includes the delivery of equipment to support land-based testing and training at Wallops Island and Dahlgren, VA. "The cruiser modernization program is critical to the sustainment of U.S. Navy force structure and the accomplishment of current and future missions of the Department of Defense," said Capt. David Gale from the Navy's Program Executive Office for Ships. "The USS Ticonderoga-class cruisers were built in the 1980s and early 1990s. This program will recapitalize initial investment in these ships by modernizing the combat system through computing and display infrastructure upgrades, as well as the hull, mechanical and electrical systems." The combat system computing and display infrastructure modernization will incorporate commercial off-the-shelf equipment and open systems architecture. In addition, the Aegis development supporting the cruiser modernization program is being directly leveraged and reused in combat system development associated with the Littoral Combat Ship, DD(X) and the Coast Guard's Deepwater programs. Through this cross-program collaboration, Lockheed Martin is supporting the U.S. Navy in realizing its vision to maximize the commonality and interoperability of combat systems across Navy and Coast Guard surface ships. The Aegis Weapon System is the world's premier naval surface defense system and is the foundation for Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense, the primary component of the sea-based element of the U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense System. The Aegis Weapon System includes the SPY-1 radar, the Navy's most advanced computer-controlled radar system. When paired with the MK 41 Vertical Launching System, it is capable of delivering missiles for every mission and threat environment in naval warfare.

The video, posted to the internet purports to show a rebel commander cutting into the torso of a dead soldier and taking a bite of one of his organs. Reuters cannot independently verify the content of the video which was posted to a social media website. Tamara Alrifa of Human Rights Watch has identified the commander as Abu Saffar, founder of the Farouq brigade. SOUNDBITE: Tamara Alrifa of Human Rights Watch saying: And the reasons we're sure this is him is that we've compared this footage to other footage we've had, and we managed to recognize some of his clothes, but also a ring that he's wearing and the scar under his left eye, so we're in no doubt about the person. Human Rights Watch condemned the brutality of the video on Tuesday as did Washington. SOUNDBITE: Tama © DailyMotion - Wednesday, May 15, 2013

Will The Isuzu VehiCross Become Collectible?
The Isuzu VehiCross is a rare sight, in part because relatively few were made and far fewer found their way to the U.S. in a run of just three model years. They also had a sticker price of about $29,000 in 1999, which was a lot of money back then, especially for an Isuzu. How many American car shoppers even knew what an Isuzu was?
Today, though, they still look pretty fresh. Every time I see one I wonder how long it will take for a collector's market to form around them. They face a number of disadvantages, from not being old enough yet to be considered classics to coming from a fairly obscure maker. The market for collectible SUVs has also traditionally lagged behind that of old cars.
