CHARLOTTE, N.C. (August 26, 2006) - The ETSU Lady Bucs got exactly what they needed Saturday afternoon, downing Atlantic Coast Conference foe North Carolina State in four games, 28-30, 30-23, 32-30, 30-25. ETSU finished competition at the Charlotte Classic with a 1-1 mark and garnered its first-ever win over the Wolfpack.
"Getting this win under our belt was exactly what we needed to build some confidence," said Lady Buc head coach Lindsey Devine. "This was a total team effort today, and our composure and ball control pushed us through to the victory."
After dropping the opening game, the Lady Bucs (1-1) evened the match with their seven-point game two victory. Trailing 18-17 in the second frame, ETSU took control with a 6-0 run, aided by four N.C. State attack errors and two service aces from senior Sarah Buhr (Stockton, Calif.).
The Lady Bucs assumed control of the match in the third game, rallying from a six-point deficit and fighting off two game points. Trailing 22-16, Buhr delivered consecutive kills, the Wolfpack again helped the ETSU cause with two attack errors and senior Jennifer Sartor (
ETSU never trailed in the match's final game, taking a 4-1 lead and withstanding a late Wolfpack rally before pulling away for the 30-25 match-sealing win. Junior Callie Kiselich (

Young giraffe dies at western Md. zoo
Catoctin Wildlife Preserve and Zoo only had 1 giraffe
Young giraffe dies at western Md. zoo
Catoctin Wildlife Preserve and Zoo only had 1 giraffe
THURMONT, Md. —
A young giraffe has died at a western Maryland zoo.
The Catoctin Wildlife Preserve and Zoo said 4-year-old Rocket, the zoo's only giraffe, died Tuesday night in his sleep.
The Frederick News-Post reports that the cause of death has not been confirmed, but a necropsy is planned. Healthy giraffes typically live up to 25 years in the wild and longer in captivity.
Rocket was brought to the zoo after a fire at the private zoo where he was born killed other giraffes and their caretaker. His stay was initially on a temporary basis because the zoo didn't have the heating needed for winter, but zoo staff raised money to keep him permanently.
The zoo plans to exhibit giraffes again, once staff and members have time to grieve.

6 Lankans and 3 Aussies make up the team of the cup.
"To no-one's great surprise, Australia took out the tournament for the third time in a row. What is perhaps more surprising is the presence of only three Aussies in our team of the tournament"
Article at: http://www.cricket365.com/story/0,18...096655,00.html
"Whilst Six Sri Lankans make the cut, but they had no other players in serious consideration, while the odd vote cast differently could easily have seen eight or nine Aussies involved.
Perhaps the lack of an Australian on the panel had an effect. Perhaps the rest of us are just bitter."

Halloween is right around the corner and I'm in the mood to bake. That's why I'm excited to partner with Kraft Foods as a Tastemaker. It gives me the chance to browse the Kraft Foods site which is full of all kinds of fun and delicious Halloween ideas and I also got an incredible Kraft Foods Halloween prize pack!
Doesn't it all look amazing?!
There are so many fun things in this prize pack that I can't wait to start baking for Halloween. I'm not sure which of the JET-PUFFED Marshmallows Kora & Logan like the best - the JET-PUFFED JUMBO PUMPKINMALLOWS, the GHOSTMALLOWS, or the GINGERBREADMALLOWS. They are all so cute that we look forward to baking something cute and creative with them this fall.
The Halloween themed KRAFT Deluxe Macaroni & Cheese Dinner was a big hit with Kora & Logan, as well. They love seasonally shaped mac & cheese, so this was one of their favorite dinners recently. The JELL-O JIGGLERS mold kits are perfect for making cute and creepy JIGGLERS. These would be fun to take into school for a class Halloween party. The bone cookie pan will make wonderful skeleton bones which would also be a creative treat to take to parties or pack in a lunch box.
This prize pack also has a number of wonderful pieces to help throw a fantastic Halloween party. There's a bat & Dracula dip set, a tiered cute cardboard cake stand, adorable cupcake toppers, stickers, a pumpkin carving spoon, and a large jack-o-lantern bucket that could be used for trick-or-treating or to serve punch in.
With a collection like this I'd love to throw a Halloween party and have Kora & Logan help with the planning. They always enjoy helping plan their birthday parties and they like cooking and baking, too. So this would the perfect reason to browse the Kraft Foods Kids Halloween Party Menu page. There are lots of cute, creepy, and creative ideas that would be sure to please a crowd at any Halloween party. I'm excited that Halloween is in just a few weeks and I can't wait to get baking and cooking.

The Sustainable Education and Skills Centres (SEAS Centres) for Employment Programme is a South East African Climate Consortium (SEACC) project that is driven by Sustainable Seas Trust (SST). Each university and NGO has a role to play in developing completely green, carbon neutral, welcoming buildings and in education. For example, the architecture will be led by Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (NMMU), energy & heat by NMMU & University of Fort Hare (UFH); water by Rhodes University (RU) & UFH agriparks by UFH, health and family by Walter Sisulu University (WSU), skills training by all universities and the private sector, education and computer training by all universities including students.
SEAS Centres showing the contributions that different members of SEACC might make. The acronyms are: NMMU (Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University); RU (Rhodes University); SST (Sustainable Seas Trust), UFH (University of Fort Hare); WF (wilderness Foundation); WSU (Walter Sisulu University).
Sustainable Education and Skills Centres (SEAS Centres) for Employment will cater for impoverished coastal communities who have no choice, but to degrade the environment upon which they depend in order to subsist. The main purpose of SEAS Centres is to provide alternative employment opportunities which empower impoverished people so that they are able to choose sustainable livelihoods and to rehabilitate degraded environments. The SEAS Centres are being designed as totally green (we refer blue) carbon neutral facilities for rural coastal Africa. They deal with the primary challenges of Africa, namely:
- Poverty alleviation
- Provision of education and skills training
- Provision of employment and empowering people so that they can find employment
- Promoting food security
- Promoting family health
- Conservation and rehabilitation of environments
- Enabling people to obtain human pride and dignity, particularly of women.

Woody: Hunter Is Simply Irreplaceable
I doubt that any individual in the history of NASCAR has exerted a more positive influence on the sport than Jim Hunter.
During his decades in racing, from running Darlington Raceway to his current role as a NASCAR executive, Hunter was always a friend of the media.
As a former Atlanta sports writer he was able to empathize and sympathize with his fellow ink-stained wretches. No matter how high he rose – all the way up the NASCAR Vice President of Corporate Communications – Jim remained a down-to-earth buddy to everybody who plopped down in a press box.
Now Hunter, 70, is batting lung cancer.
What do you say to an old friend of some 40 years who's waging such a grim battle? There's nothing you can say except to tell him to hang in and to know that his legion of buddies are thinking of him and pulling for him.
They say none of us are irreplaceable but in Hunter's care I'm not sure that's true. In my four decades of sports writing I've never known another PR person, Sports Information Director or Media Coordinator who had Hunter's knack for dealing with the press.
Jim was who you went to for off-the-record background information. You knew that what Hunter told you was the straight stuff. If he confirmed or denied something, you could take it to the bank. You couldn't always quote him, but at least he would put you on the right track.
Hunter understood our needs. He had fought deadlines and hard-headed editors and shared the pressures and aggravations of a newspaperman. He had been in the trenches with his typewriter. He was one of us.
Whenever there was a flap or controversy involving NASCAR, a driver or anyone else in the sport, Hunter was always the diplomat, the peace-maker, the calm voice in the storm.
When emotions started to heat up it was Hunter who was able to get everybody on both sides to take a deep breath and calm down.
That's an ability that not many people have, and that's what has made him so invaluable in a sport that is so often cantankerous and emotion-charged.
If there's a record for spreading good will and calm, Hunter surely holds it.
Jim's passion was golf. It wasn't unusual to see Hunter go clunking through the garage area or into a media center wearing his golf shoes – either headed to or returning from some area course.
Once after a slash-and-hack afternoon on a course in Talladega with Hunter, my old sportswriter buddy Joe Caldwell and a driver – Jimmy Spencer, I believe it was – Hunter rolled his eyes and groaned: "Woody, you're the only golfer I've ever known who gets WORSE the more he plays!"
Those were good times, fun times, goofing around on a golf course and laughing over oft-told yarns in a press box or hospitality room. When Hunter arrived, the party had officially begun.
Will Rogers once remarked about someone "who never met a man he didn't like." I'd like to flip that around: in some 40 years of knowing Jim Hunter I've never met a man who didn't like him."
Now a good guy is going through a bad time. If good will and the wishes of good friends count for anything, he's going to make it.

BlackRock Inc., the world's largest provider of exchange-traded funds, hired Rachel Lord from Citigroup Inc. to oversee its iShares ETF unit in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Lord, who was global head of corporate equity derivatives at Citigroup, will be based in London and report to Mark Wiedman, global head of iShares, according to a statement today from New York-based BlackRock. Lord will replace Joe Linhares, who will return to the U.S. and coordinate the firm's activities with its largest retail distribution partners.
BlackRock, which oversees $891 billion in ETF assets globally, is seeking to expand its ETF business in Europe and acquired Credit Suisse Group AG's ETF unit earlier this year. Chief Executive Officer Laurence D. Fink has said weaker iShares deposits in the U.S. have been offset by strength in Europe and Latin America.
Before Citigroup, Lord worked at Morgan Stanley for 13 years, where she was head of corporate equity derivatives in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region. She started her career in 1987 at Arthur Andersen and has a bachelor's degree in international history and politics from the University of Leeds.

Global and European regional assessment: Endangered (EN)
EU 28 regional assessment: Endangered (EN)
The species is endemic to central-eastern Europe (Carpathian Basin) and the northern Balkans; confirmed historical native records of the species are from Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia, Romania, and Serbia, however it appears that the species range has greatly diminished in recent years, with confirmed current records only known from the Danube floodplain in Hungary and Croatia (D. Bartha pers com 2014) and Serbia, with no recent records of the species from other former parts of its range, and it is considered possibly extinct in Slovakia and Romania.
In Hungary, the forest habitat area has been reduced due to industrialisation. It is also impacted by a range of threats including forest clearance, forest management methods, development of plantations, declining groundwater levels, and grazing by wild animals (primarily deer). Based on available recent records of the species from Hungary and Croatia (D. Bartha pers. comm. 2014), the extent of occurrence of the species is estimated at 3,188 km2 and the area of occupancy at 128 km2 (the latter is assumed to be an under-estimate).
This species is given a precautionary assessment of Endangered (A2ac; B1ab(i,ii,iii,iv,v)+2ab(i,ii,iii,iv,v)) in both Europe (and thus globally) and the EU 27, as it is threatened or has disappeared across a significant portion of its range over the past several decades, and continues to decline. Although the population decline can't be accurately estimated with the data available, it is thought to approach or exceed 50% in the past three generations, with causative declines in AOO, EOO, and habitat quality and extent.
More information on the current population size, trends and the overall rate of decline is needed, and confirmation of the species presence and distribution in all parts of its former range. This species' habitat should be protected, unfavourable forest management methods improved, and alien species controlled to protect declining populations.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|The species is endemic to central-eastern Europe (the Carpathian Basin) and the northern Balkans (Kurtto 2009, USDA 2013). Confirmed records of the species are from Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia, Romania and Serbia (G. Király pers. comm. 2013), however it appears that the species' range has greatly diminished in recent years, with current confirmed records known only from the Danube floodplain in Hungary and Croatia (D. Bartha pers. comm. 2014).
In the northern Balkans, the species was known from the Danube basin, but is considered possibly extinct from here, with no recent records (D. Bartha pers. comm. 2014). Records from the Suva Planina Mountains in southeast Serbia (Papp and Erzberger 2009) require confirmation as they may be a misidentification of Crataegus pentagyna, as may records from Montenegro (D. Bartha pers. comm. 2014).
26 recent populations known, ten populations disappeared in the last 50 years, with recent records of the species restricted to along the Danube from Csepel Island to the Hungarian border.
Possibly extinct; previously recorded from Bratislava (old data); currently only known in cultivation (Marhold and Hindák 2014).
The species is present south from the Hungary-Croatia border along the Danube, in the Baranja and Eastern Slavonia regions; the southeastern population is near Ilok.
Previously known from nine sites along the Danube, but considered likely to have been lost from some; there are recent records from the Begečka Jama wetlands (Danube Virtual Museum 2014), the Gornje Podunavlje Ramsar wetland (Stojnić 2007) and the Karapandža natural park (Márkus and Ŝakić undated); records of the species from the Suva Planina Mountains require confirmation.
Five sites were known along the Danube; possibly extinct, the eastern occurrence of the species was from Turnu Severin, with the last record from 1955.
Considered introduced (cultivated) in the Czech Republic (Danihelka et al. 2012). The species has in the past been misidentified as Crataegus pentagyna Waldst. & Kit. ex Willd., but this species lives in xerotherm forests, while C. nigra is found in alluvial forests (Bartha and Kerényi-Nagy 2010). There are older records of the species from Albania from 1955 (Mitrushi 1955) however these require confirmation and may refer to other taxa (L. Shuka pers. comm. 2016).
Based on available recent records of the species from Hungary and Croatia (D. Bartha pers. comm. 2014), the extent of occurrence of the species is estimated at 3,188 km2 and the area of occupancy at 128 km2 (the latter is assumed to be an under-estimate).

|The total population size is unknown, but this species is uncommon across its remaining range; it is rare in Hungary and Croatia (M. Idzojtic pers. comm. 2014), and possibly extinct in the wild in Serbia, Romania, and Slovakia (Kurtto 2009, G. Király pers. comm. 2013).
In Slovakia its threat status is unclear according to Čeřovský et al. (1999); Marhold and Hindák (2014) list it as occurring only in cultivation in Slovakia. Although it is rare and fairly unknown in Croatia, it is naturally widespread along the Danube River in Baranja and Eastern Slavonia. The population is considered endangered and declining in Hungary, where a majority of the subpopulations are found (Baričevič et al. 2004, Király 2007, G. Király pers. comm. 2013).

The XBLA/PSN game called Amy never really caught my attention. At least, not until I began seeing some of the lowest review scores that I had seen in a long, long time.
Having seen a few trailers for the game, it didn't impress me that much. It struck me as yet another zombie game. Big whoop. We get one of those every few months.
But for some odd reason, I was compelled to do a bit of digging. "Wasn't this the game that IGN said was 'like ICO, but with zombies'?" I thought to myself. Indeed, as I looked into the past, I found a great number of glowing previews for the game. Destructoid, IGN, Gamespot, and many other sites all had very nice things to say about this game.
IGN had these two articles on the game last year:
Amy is ICO with Zombies and it's brilliant-
Amy Makes Fighting Zombies feel fresh again-
Gamespot did a preview on the game, too, praising its atmosphere and gameplay:
If you're so compelled, you can look up other previews on other gaming sites, too.
My point is that Amy was getting a fair amount of hype. It had positive previews from pretty much every big-name gaming website.
And then the reviews hit.
2/10. 4/10. 1.5/10. Horrible, horrible, horrible scores. IGN called it "horrifyingly bad". Wait. Hang on a second, folks. I thought this game had "incredible atmosphere". I thought this game was "a breath of fresh air into the zombie genre". Now you're telling me it's a bad game? It would be one thing if they were a bit apprehensive in their previews, but no. These gaming sites unabashedly shower the game with praises. They don't say "well...I hope they can work out the bugs, because the game has potential" or "I think there are a few neat things, but let's wait until we see the final product". No. Nothing like that. It was eager preview one after another.
To me, this situation clearly exposes the motivations of so-called "gaming sites". "Advertisement hubs" is more like it. I've always lived by the mantra "there's no such thing as a bad preview", and Amy is a shining example of that philosophy. Think of the gamers who watched trailers, read previews, and expected a great, unique zombie game. They got shafted. They relied on honest previews and instead got thinly-veiled advertisements.
I'm not saying these journalists were bribed.
I'm saying these journalists are all idiots who couldn't tell a good or bad game if it punched them in the face. These journalists flip-flop in their opinions like a dirty politician.
It was bad enough when gaming journalists showered Skyrim with wonderful reviews when all three versions on all three platforms suffered from some pretty serious bugs. But this thing with Amy is just...bad. If we can't rely on gaming "journalists" to deliver honest previews, why should we trust their reviews, or anything else they say?
Really good post. But, When you used Skyrim as an example I was a little put off. Yes Skyrim has bugs and yes people reported game breaking glitches and immersion breaking issues. But A LOT of those reports came from the PS3 version. So far (on xbox) I have not experienced a game-breaking glitch and the same MAY apply for the PC version.
"It was bad enough when gaming journalists showered Skyrim with wonderful reviews when all three versions on all three platforms suffered from some pretty serious bugs."
I think you should put some sources into that.
You're totally right, though I do think there's some nuance required here.
I know from experience that it's not always easy previewing a game. Technically a game you are previewing is not finished and things could change before release. Even if you are playing a preview build 2 weeks ahead of release, chances are that you are playing a version that is less advanced than what the devs are working on, or have sent to be gold mastered.
So, what do you do if there's a lot that you like but there are obvious points that need to be fixed before release or the devs risk a total turd?
The devs will be telling you that these things will be fixed in the final release, and sometimes they are, but just as often they're not. That doesn't make it any easier.
When this happens to me, I'll try and write a more factual preview rather than an excited sounding one.
Previews are essentially advertisements. 99% of them are positive, which doesn't make any sense. Most of us who have been gaming for a while can spot a turd by watching trailers of it. Why can't journalists do the same? ($$$)
Its crazy how many people paid £7.99 for this on PSN. Its got a rating of 4.50 something out of 5. I feel bad for those people who are clearly kidding themselves that they bought a good game...
Previews of games are conducted in a very controlled environment. A very specific portion of the game is shown, false promises are (probably) made. The journalists are treated like stars. Most of the previews of games I read are positive.
I know for a fact that on Gamespot, the editors that preview games don't review them, so that there is no element of bias in the review.
Yes, the difference in previews and reviews of this game make the website look bad but I guess this is just how the industry works at the moment.

KEWASKUM, Wis. —
A Hartford man is charged with two felony counts of identity theft, according to the Washington County sheriff.
According to a statement, Anthony Langlois obtained $12,949 dollars worth of donations meant for the Alzheimer's Association of Southeast Wisconsin and the Briggs and Al's Run & Walk for Children's Hospital.
Investigators said Langlois collected the money by intentionally deceiving individual and business donors by altering donation forms.
The charities said they never received the funds.

BOSTON — Bruins center Marc Savard, fresh off his first morning skate with his teammates today at TD Garden, was asked about the recent revelation that NHL Executive VP Colin Campbell criticized the center in some emails from three years ago.
Here was his response:
"I have nothing against Coli. I think that stuff was private stuff and I think that the stuff that he was saying was interpreted in a bad way. It had nothing to do with the Cooke incident. I played for Coli and I think that was one of the ways when I first came into the league to stay in the lineup was draw penalties and he encouraged that at the time, if you asked him. I think that's what he was referring to. But it had nothing to do with the Cooke situation.
"And I talked to Soup [Colin's son, Bruins center Gregory Campbell]. Soup's a great kid and we have no hard feelings against each other. I can't wait get back to play with him."
"When I read them [the emails], it didn't faze me," Savard continued. "I just knew that he was talking about how when I dove a couple times when I played for him to draw penalties. I've obviously changed because I can play every night. But back then I was in and out of the lineup, so that was one of my bonuses drawing two and three penalties a game and getting on the power play. That's the way I played."
Savard's explanation seems plausible. One has to just wonder why Campbell didn't have the same explanation this week when making the media rounds on NHL-friendly airwaves.

Q: I regularly use the Encrypting File System (EFS) to encrypt files that are stored on my PC and on file shares (these shares are located on our corporate Windows file servers). Does EFS provide a mechanism to share encrypted files with other users? It would be very handy to give certain colleagues access to my encrypted files on the file shares.
A: Yes, the EFS supports encrypted file sharing between different users. EFS file sharing was introduced in Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 – and is thus not available for Windows 2000 EFS. It enables a user that has access to an EFS-encrypted file to share it with other users. EFS file sharing can be set up only for individual user accounts, not for group accounts. From an administration point-of-view, things would certainly have been much simpler if Microsoft had let users share their encrypted files with Windows groups. But because EFS relies on X.509-based certificates that by definition can only be issued to individual users and not groups, this is impossible. Another important limitation is that EFS file sharing can be applied only to individual EFS-encrypted files, and not to EFS-encrypted NTFS folders. Also remember that EFS is only available on the NT File System (NTFS), and not on other Windows file systems such as FAT or FAT32.
You can enable EFS file sharing in an encrypted file's advanced properties, which you can access from the Advanced button on the General tab of a file's properties. Before you can share an encrypted file, the file must obviously be encrypted. If a file is encrypted, you will notice that the Details button in the file's Advanced properties is available. Pressing this button brings up the "Encryption Details for…" dialog box. (By the way, in Windows Vista this dialog box is titled "User Access to"). From this dialog box you can share an encrypted file with other users. The sharing of an EFS encrypted file is not an explicit privilege of the user account that encrypted the file and shared it with another user. For example, Jan may have encrypted the file and decided to share it with Katrien. Katrien on her turn may then have decided to share it with Wim. The only condition is that the user that you want to give access to an encrypted file has a valid EFS certificate that's stored either in the local certificate store on your PC or in Active Directory (if your machine is joined to an AD domain).
Let's look at how EFS determines whether a user is authorized to change a file's EFS sharing properties and with whom he/she can share the encrypted file. To change a file's EFS sharing properties, you need at least write permission to the file. To share a file with another user you need access to that user's EFS encryption certificate. From the Select User dialog box, you can access the EFS user certificates that are stored in the Other People and Trusted People certificate containers of your personal certificate store. The Trusted People is a new XP and Windows 2003 certificate container. It contains the EFS certificates of all users that have ever encrypted a file from a particular machine. If your machine is a member of a Windows AD domain, you'll notice that the Find User… button is enabled. Pressing this button lets you access the EFS user certificates that are published in AD. Note that the EFS "Select User" dialog box will display only the valid EFS certificates. This means that the certificate must have the "Encrypting File System" purpose enabled in its properties, and also that the certificate must be valid and should not have expired. If you want to share encrypted files with people whose EFS certificate is not available in one of the above repositories, you can always import it manually into AD or your certificate store.
To better understand how EFS file sharing really works, it's worthwhile taking a look at the cryptographic nuts and bolts of EFS file sharing. When a user shares an encrypted file with another user, an extra Data Decryption Field (DDF) is added to the file's EFS-related NTFS file streams. EFS uses DDFs to securely store the cryptographic keys that are needed to encrypt an EFS-protected file and automatically decrypt it. At no point in the EFS file-sharing process is the file itself decrypted. In the above example of Jan giving Katrien access to one of his encrypted files, when Jan decides to share an encrypted file with Katrien, EFS first decrypts Jan's DDF with Jan's private key to retrieve the File Encryption Key (FEK). EFS then encrypts the FEK using Katrien's public key and adds the resulting new DDF for Katrien to the file's EFS-related NTFS file streams. For a good explanation of the cryptographic EFS internals, read the Microsoft article "How EFS Works," at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/distrib/dsck_efs_duwf.mspx?mfr=true

Interactive entertainment company Kabam has acquired Canadian game developer Exploding Barrel Games in order to grow its global studio, it was announced Tuesday. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The deal continues a series of acquisitions made by Kabam since 2010, which include WonderHill, Fearless Studios, Gravity Bear, Wild Shadow Studios and Balanced Worlds.
San Francisco-based Kabam is the creator of hit games like Kingdoms of Camelot: Battle for the North, which placed first on Apple's Highest Grossing Apps list for 2012. In December, Kabam became one of the rare companies to have three games simultaneously ranked on the Top 25 Grossing Apps lists for both iOS and Android. Kingdoms of Camelot surpassed $100 million in gross revenue in 2012.
Last year, Kabam grew both its revenue and team. Revenue was up by more than 60% over 2011 gross revenue of $100 million, while the team grew by over 40% to 580 employees. The company also relocated its headquarters from San Carlos, California to San Francisco.
In addition to said growth, Kabam did a good job diversiying last year, going from having all of its revenue dependent on Facebook to over 70% coming from mobile and Web.
By buying a Canadian developer, Kabam will continue its global expansion that began in May 2010, when it opened a development studio in Beijing. In 2011, it opened customer service and corporate offices in Luxembourg and Germany, and last year Kabam opened a development studio in Austin, Texas. Kabam says that it is hiring developers and designers in all of its studio locations.
"Kabam continues to grow our global studio team with the best talent in the world," Andrew Sheppard, Kabam's President of Studios, said in statement. "With experience working on multi-billion dollar franchises like Need for Speedand EA Sports titles, and developing blockbusters in nearly every core genre, the team at Exploding Barrel Games is a perfect complement to Kabam's mission to blend the art of game design with the science of free-to-play distribution."
.Kabam has raised a total of $125 million, including a $30 million Series C in January 2011, led by Redpoint Ventures and Intel Capital with additional contributions from original investor Canaan Partners, Kabam's seed-stage incubator, and an $85 million Series D in May 2011 from Google Ventures, Pinnacle Ventures, Performance Equity and SK Telecom Ventures, in addition to its earlier investors.
Vancouver-based Exploding Barrel Games is the maker of the popular Margaritaville game on Facebook. The company says that it is currently working on three unannounced games and has a rapidly growing team of more than 30 designers, artists, and programmers.
Exploding Barrel Games is committed to developing well designed, cross platform games.
"At Exploding Barrel Games we believe that break-through, highly polished game design and visuals paired with our proprietary technology, actionable analytics and social graphs will drive the next generation of cross platform games. Our mission: set a new bar by making explosively fun, profitable, AAA, connected experiences that span social networks, tablets, smart phones & PCs," it says on the company's website.
"Exploding Barrel Games makes triple-A free-to-play games and is growing our team here in Vancouver," Scott Blackwood, President of Exploding Barrel Games, said in statement. "We're excited to join Kabam's global studios team and continue to bring the art of great game design to connected devices, with thrilling, high-quality games that rival what's available on consoles."
Kabam and Exploding Barrel Games were unavailable for comment.

Man told police he shot Taylor County Deputy out of anger, rage, depression
Submitted: 09/23/2013
Rib Lake
- Alexander Schneider told police he shot a Taylor County Sheriff's Deputy out of anger, rage and depression. That's from a criminal complaint released today. Earlier this month, police arrested Schneider for shooting Deputy Chad Kowalczyk. Kowalczyk had gone to Schneider's house in Rib Lake to talk to him about violating a restraining order. Schneider refused to come outside and shot at Kowalczyk through the front door with a rifle. He told police he was aiming for the officer's face. Schneider also said he took a few more shots at him through his bedroom window as Kowalczyk ran to his car. That's when the deputy was hit. Then Schneider ran to an abandoned house next door and got a sawed-off shotgun he'd hidden in a wall. He said he intended to kill himself. Surgeons at Aspirus Hospital removed a bullet from Kowalczyk's abdomen. He's since been released from the hospital. Schneider will be in court for first degree attempted murder tomorrow.

GOP lawmakers: Tighten Mass. reimbursement rules
GOP lawmakers: Tighten Mass. reimbursement rules
Mar. 14, 2014
BOSTON (AP) — Republican state lawmakers are pushing to close what they're calling a major loophole in regulations covering the reimbursement of state employee travel expenses — one that could affect the Massachusetts Gaming Commission.
Sen. Bruce Tarr said current state law mandates all governing bodies that receive state appropriations follow strict travel expense guidelines.
The Gloucester Republican said that because the gambling commission doesn't receive such appropriations, the commission has decided that the regulations don't apply.
Tarr said the GOP-sponsored bill eliminates the wording of "state appropriations" to make sure the regulation is all-inclusive.
Tarr described the bill as a common sense change that will go a long way toward preventing abuses and extreme expenses.
He said the legislation would also clarify state reimbursement rules regarding lodging, entertainment, airfare, and other travel expenses.

About 10 years ago, reporter Dave Philipps found himself staring in awe at the thousands of captive mustangs corralled near Cañon City, Colo.
He was there to write about wild horses rounded up from public rangelands by the Bureau of Land Management. Some were adopted out, he was told, but most would go into "retirement": long-term holding pastures in the Midwest where they'd live indefinitely on the government dole. The prospect struck Philipps as strange. What if the agency ran out of room?
"I don't know," his BLM host replied.
Today, that question is in urgent need of an answer. The number of "retired" horses was well above 10,000 when Philipps first saw them. Now there are nearly 50,000. How, he wondered, had this happened?
For many, wild horses are mythic symbols of America's frontier heritage, conjuring cinematic visions of glossy herds thundering across clear mountain streams. But they're also technically feral, the descendants of escaped domestic stock. So it is that the BLM is charged with both protecting mustangs and controlling their population -- a difficult balance to strike, and one that's fueled controversy for nearly half a century.
That controversy, in turn, has generated its own myths. When Philipps began researching the issue -- the subject of our cover story -- he encountered "a lot of vitriol, remotely generated out of sentiment rather than real information from on the ground."
Wild horse advocates traded conspiracy theories on the Web: The BLM, they said, is illegally colluding with ranchers and extractive industries, and horse populations would naturally stabilize if left alone. Meanwhile, rangeland advocates dismissed the creatures as "hoofed locusts" -- using John Muir's epithet for domestic sheep -- that denude the landscape. In fact, it's hard to separate horses' grazing impacts from those of another vastly more numerous non-native: cattle.
In order to get past the noise, Philipps "just looked for the people who were actually doing something," he says -- a search that took him to Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, New Mexico and Nevada. He met wild horse advocates looking for practical ways to manage local herds, ranchers simply trying to be good land stewards, and plenty of federal agents thanklessly working to "take care of land and horses the best they can with the resources they have."
What Philipps did not find was an obvious solution -- one that finally reconciles America's idealistic vision of wild horses with the needs of the land itself. The words of Lynne Bama, the author of HCN's last wild horse feature, are as poignant today as they were when we printed them in 1998: "Although the horse has been part of human society for 6,000 years, it still remembers how to survive in the wild. For a people who have lost their connections to nature, that ability feeds an irresistible collective fantasy of freedom -- a fantasy which may keep us from seeing the animal clearly."

DANVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden and congressman Paul Ryan are clashing over their plans for Medicare and Social Security, government programs for seniors.
Often appearing exasperated by Ryan, Biden says he and President Barack Obama would never sign onto the sort of voucher program proposed by Ryan and GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney. Ryan fired back that the Republican plan would give seniors more choice in their medical care.
Romney's plan would introduce undetermined subsidies to help future retirees buy private insurance or join a government plan modeled on traditional Medicare. Obama's health care law cuts Medicare spending for hospitals and other providers by more than $700 billion over a decade. Those cuts are being used to provide health insurance to more working-age Americans.

February 09, 2012. Today InnoGames released a sneak peek into its upcoming browser game, Forge of Empires, with information regarding gameplay features. Various buildable structures increase citizens' happiness, which is necessary for city prosperity and productivity. This greatly improves the ability to take over neighbouring lands and expand empires.
As a city's population grows in the game, the inhabitants develop an increasing demand for leisure activities. Players can choose from a number of buildings to meet that demand such as schools, theatres, public bath houses – and further in the title – embellished cathedrals and castles. Productivity quickly declines with an unhappy population, whereas happiness levels beyond the required amount boost the production of resources. Once this is fulfilled, leaders are prepared to obtain surrounding provinces.
Conquering provinces grants a source for rare goods or other rewards, like city-expansions or treasure. As players advance in the campaign, they unlock PvP-Towers. The towers allow one to compete in the various Ages' PvP-tournaments, which run over the course of 7 days. In the future, InnoGames plans additional PvP-features as well as a Co-Op Campaign.
Forge of Empires is a browser-based strategy game that allows players to create a city and develop it from the Stone Age and onward throughout the centuries. Players can create a vast empire through military campaigns and skilful dealings. Screenshots, artwork and a trailer are available on www.forgeofempires.com.
With about 75 million registered players, InnoGames is one of the world's leading developers and providers of online games. The Hamburg-based company has scored major successes with games such as Tribal Wars, The West and Grepolis.

Public input welcomed
The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service has reopened the public comment period on the proposed rule to list the lesser-prairie chicken as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The comment period is open until June 20.
The proposal as written could have a dramatic effect on western Kansas land, and mineral owners as to their use and development of their real estate interests. This would include oil and gas exploration drilling, and wind energy development.
There are currently private individuals and cooperatives working to develop resource management plans to protect the habitat of the lesser-prairie chicken with many already being successful in increasing the lesser-prairie chicken numbers.
Arguments against the proposal include the belief that listing the lesser-prairie chicken as a threatened species is not warranted at this time, there is no scientific evidence supporting the listing as a threatened species and that the move to list the species has been motivated by environmentalists wishing to challenge development on private, state and federal land.
Should the proposal be accepted, the oil and gas industry has estimated the requirements their industry would have to comply with would add significant expense to every location drilled in the Hugoton gas field, potentially rendering further oil and gas development in SW Kansas uneconomical in all but a few cases.
In addition, all current marginally producing wells could become uneconomical to continue to operate.
The proposed regulation would amount to an uncompensated taking of private property by making crude oil and natural gas minerals uneconomic to develop in portions of Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas. It would kill jobs, reduce royalty payments to tens of thousands of mineral owners, harm struggling communities and reduce tax collections at the local, state and federal level.
The Southwest Kansas Royalty Owners Association joins the Royalty Owners and Producers Educational Coalition, Kansas Independent Oil and Gas Association and various oil and gas producers in encouraging the public in voicing their opposition to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service's proposal to list the lesser-prairie chicken as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973. Deadline for comments is June 20.
Written comments may be submitted electronically at www.regulations.gov. Search for "Docket No. FWS-R2-ES-2012." Submit a comment by clicking on "Comment Now!"
Submit by mail to: Public Comments Processing, Attn: FWS-R2-ES-2012-0071; Division of Policy and Directives Management; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; 4401 N. Fairfax Drive, MS-2042-PDM; Arlington, VA 22203

From atop his John Deere combine, a jovial Charles O'Neil, a wheat grower near Carmen, Okla., forges through acres of thick, golden wheat. "I've never seen a crop this good," he said.
Rain during harvest caused test weights to dip, but toward the end they averaged around 60 pounds per bushel. O'Neil said later varieties of wheat performed a little better. This bumper crop averaged 50 to 60 bushels per acre, some fields as high as 70.
"This is a day and night difference from last year," said Doug Green, branch manager of the Carmen Farmer's Co-op. The 2002 wheat crop in the Carmen area was pathetic, at best. Growers here do not irrigate and depend on timely rainfall. It was dry throughout the entire growing season, and farmers turned lots of acres to crop insurance. Some growers did not cut a single acre of wheat in 2002.
"Because of the poor wheat yields last year, this is really two crops in one," O'Neil said. "About 61 bushels per acre is the best I've heard this year. Last year we were getting about 10 and 15 bushels an acre."
"This year we had good, timely moisture and we had snow. It has just been unbelievable," Green said, adding that morale in town is completely different from the doldrums of last year's harvest. The conversations are upbeat, and area residents, as well as farmers are eager to give thanks.
Ask anyone in the town of 500 northwest of Enid and most tell you this is the best wheat crop they've seen in years, maybe in their lifetime.
Tulia less upbeat
Attitudes are not quite as positive five hours to the southwest in the Texas Panhandle town of Tulia. Yields on dryland wheat were about five bushels below average. "We got some moisture early and got good (stocker cattle) grazing on it, but then it got hot and dry. It (harvested with) good quality and a good weight, and that's kind of unusual when you have low yields," said Tommy Womack, a wheat grower in Tulia and president of the National Association of Wheat Growers.
Womack said irrigated wheat was average with good quality and good test weights, and farmers are optimistic as prices have increased by about 50 cents a bushel since harvest. However, in recent years, irrigated wheat acres have decreased because of declining water supplies and high energy costs.
"I plant more dryland wheat than I did five or seven years ago because my water is getting low. I used to have more cotton and more irrigated wheat. Energy prices have increased significantly as well, so I went to more dryland," Womack said.
Recent fuel cost hikes affect almost all farmers across the United States, which prompts many to re-think some of their farming practices. But for next year's crop, Womack plans to plant his usual 3,000 acres of wheat. "What usually determines how much wheat I cut is how much moisture we get in the fall and then cattle prices play into that also," he said.
Womack uses much of his wheat as pasture to graze stocker cattle.
Half wheat, half rye
The outstanding wheat crop does not really entice O'Neil to plant more wheat. Usually he plants 50 percent wheat and 50 percent rye to spread his risk. On the other hand, Green notices producers around Carmen planting more milo, experimenting with no-till farming, and rotating crops.
"We used to have lots of milo around here, but when a farm program changed, that stopped. Now, with the latest farm bill, milo acres are picking up again," Green said.
Womack has not changed to match the new farm program. "You just have to go with what works for you. It takes cattle, cotton, grain sorghum and wheat up here to make it work," he said.
Sometimes, though, making it work is harder than it sounds. On a trip to Idaho this summer, Womack noticed the dry conditions from the mid-section of the United States all the way to Canada. But if history repeats itself, rains will come to the nation's grain belt eventually.
And maybe not this year or next year, but sometime, gas prices will drop, Tulia will be thanking the Lord for its bumper wheat crop while Carmen cuts a smidgen below average and prays for more rain.
"It all catches up, I'm a believer in the law of averages," O'Neil said.

Semicossyphus reticulatus
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Semicossyphus reticulatus (Valenciennes, 1839)
Common Name(s):
Cossyphus reticulatus Valenciennes, 1839
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Data Deficient ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
Needs updating
|Cornish, A. (Grouper & Wrasse Specialist Group)
|Sadovy, Y. & Nakazono, A. (Grouper & Wrasse Red List Authority)
Remarkably little information is available about Semicossyphus reticulatus despite its size and the fact that it is a large and conspicuous wrasse and a valued food fish. The Japan Game Fish Association record is 14.7 kg and the species can attain 100 cm in total length (Masuda et. al. 1975). Japan The only information on possible changes in abundance over time is that "occurrence of juveniles at the northern coast of Kyushu have not changed for many years" (A. Nakazono pers. comm. 2003). The species is not preferred in Japan and only consumed locally (i.e., not exported) (Dr. Shigeta and Dr. A. Nakazono pers. comms.). It is not particularly common. There are no UVC data (A. Nakazono, pers. comm). A student (Okamoto communicating to A. Nakazono) regularly surveying fishing ports in eastern Kyushu did not see any individuals landed but did catch two (ca. 33 cm TL) after putting out gill nets. There were no landings records obtainable and the species is not a preferred eating fish because of its soft tissue. The use of the attractive juveniles by fish hobbyists is not known (A. Nakazono pers. comm.). An area of concern for this species, that of reproductive biology, is suggested from one of only two other congeners, Semicossyphus pulcher which occurs off California and has been much better studied. S. pulcher is a similar size to S. reticulatus, reaching a maximum length of 91 cm (FishBase) and also inhabits cool waters. It is protogynous with females reaching sexual maturity at 3–6 years (depending on location) and sexual transformation from female to male taking place several years later (Cowen 1990). Sex-changing fish can be particularly vulnerable to fishing where fishing targets a narrow range of sizes as this may target the sexes differentially resulting in populations with skewed sex-ratios. Semicossyphus reticulatus is assessed as Data Deficient ,as crucial information on population size and biology is not available. In order to assess this species in future the following information is required: 1. Basic information on relative abundance (CPUE or landings) from mainland China and southern Korea and on sizes fished. 2. Fisheries and/or visual census data over time that can be used to infer changes in population size and threats from fishing in each of mainland China, Japan and the Korean peninsula. 3. Basic information on the ways this species is targeted in each of mainland China, Japan and the Korean peninsula. 4. Information on age and size of sexual maturity and whether or not the species changes sex. Given the large size of the species and its probably intrinsic vulnerability, information needs to be collected or sourced for it and a reassessment carried out as soon as possible.
|Range Description:
|Recorded from the main islands of Japan, the Korean Penninsula and South China Sea including China (Masuda et al. 1984) but not Taiwan (The Fish Database of Taiwan). Extent of distribution along the coast of mainland China is not clear but it is known from islands close to Hong Kong (Sadovy and Cornish 2000).
In Japan S. reticulatus inhabits cooler waters and is found in the Japan Sea and Seto Inland Sea (Masuda et al. 1975). Reported occurrence in the Ogasawara Islands is in doubt (Randall et al. 1997). Given that this is a cold water species and is rare in subtropical Hong Kong, the latter probably represents the southern limit for the species along the coast of mainland China.

|Almost nothing is known about the abundance of the Asian sheepshead wrasse. It is "commonly found" in the Japan Sea and Seto Inland Sea (Masuda et al. 1975) and is rare in the vicinity of Hong Kong (Sadovy and Cornish 2000).
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|Inhabits rocky reefs and feeds on shellfish and crustaceans (Masuda et al. 1975). Spawning in large aquaria has been observed; the strongest male drove away all other males and then rose rapidly to the surface with a single female where spawning occurred (Nishiguchi and Okuno 1965).
|Major Threat(s):
|Overfishing is likely to be the major threat to this species. The extent of this threat is not known, primarily as this species only appears to be targeted as part of a mixed reef fishery and, therefore, little research has been done on this species individually.
|Conservation Actions:
|There are not known to be any fishing restrictions, nor no-take marine reserves within the range of this species. However, at some places in the Japan Sea, the spawning adult fish are protected by local divers to attract tourist divers (A. Nakazono, pers. comm., 2003).

Oil was little changed as gasoline and heating oil futures climbed while more Americans than forecast applied for unemployment benefits.
Crude fell 11 cents, extending the weekly loss to 7.2 percent. Gasoline rose on falling East Coast supplies. The Labor Department said jobless claims reached 382,000 last week, more than the 375,000 forecast by economists polled by Bloomberg. Oil slumped yesterday after the Energy Department reported crude stockpiles surged 8.53 million barrels.
"The strong gasoline price is a little supportive, " said Phil Flynn, senior market analyst at the Price Futures Group in Chicago. "The claims number was pretty disappointing. We've come down a lot in the past few days and the market is due for a rebound."
Oil for October delivery settled at $91.87 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, the fourth consecutive decline. The contract expired today. The more-active November futures rose 12 cents to $92.42.
Brent oil for November settlement rose $1.74, or 1.6 percent, to $109.93 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The front-month European benchmark grade's premium to the corresponding West Texas Intermediate contract widened for the first time in six days.
Gasoline jumped 2.7 percent after the Energy Department said yesterday East Coast stockpiles of the fuel dropped 4.6 percent last week to 47.8 million barrels, the lowest level since October 2008. Gasoline for October delivery increased 7.54 cents to end the session at $2.904 a gallon.
Gasoline Supply
Total inventories fell 1.41 million barrels to 196.3 million, the eighth consecutive decline and also the lowest level since October 2008.
"Gasoline is very strong as we still have issues about very low supplies in the Northeast, and that's pulling oil up along with it," said Stephen Schork, president of the Schork Group Inc. in Villanova, Pennsylvania.
Gasoline also rose as Petroleos de Venezuela SA, the state oil company, worked to extinguish a naphtha tank fire at its El Palito refinery. The fires were triggered by lightning that struck a seal on the tanks at 7:30 p.m. yesterday, Oil Minister Rafael Ramirez said in a telephone call broadcast on state television.
Oil fell earlier as the Labor Department revised the previous week's jobless claims up to 385,000 from an initially reported 382,000 and as the euro weakened against the dollar.
