We ended our walking tour on the very spot that he'd been photographed on, to emphasise the point.

We chatted with the staff about our trip. We made coffee and felt right at home right away. Within an hour all of our laundry was done and by then we were starving.

- New : Keyboard shortcut for "Skip flashcard".2 June 2015
- UPDATE Bugfix! The shortcut was only working after flipping the card. It now works before you flip the card, which makes a lot more sense :) (so eg, if you draw a blank on a keyword, you can skip the card without seeing the kanji, to work on it later).
There is a now a keyboard shortcut for the "Skip flashcard" feature previously available in the flashcard menu (the drop down that is available by clicking in the top right of the flashcard). The shortcuts are K and , (decimal point on the numeric keypad), also documented in the Help window.
The "Skip flashcard" shortcut can be handy if you like to whittle down the due cards by going through all the easy answers first, and then working on the difficult characters in a second pass. Thanks to Joe for the suggestion!
- New : On / Kun example words on SRS flashcards.27 May 2015
- The Spaced Repetition flashcards can now display an example On and Kun readings. The readings are shown as part of an existing word, rather than isolated. On readings are written in katakana, and Kun readings in hiragana. The reading for the kanji is highlighted in red in the full word pronunciation.
This feature was previously found in the "Custom Review" option but is now available as an option in the Flashcard Settings page. You may want to enable it once you have completed RTK, so you can get more out of the SRS reviews, and leave it out when you just started the RTK method so you can focus better on the kanji writing. In the latter case keep in mind you can always do some (non SRS) review sessions with vocabulary in the Custom Review page.
For upcoming updates, I am considering a significant change to the SRS that could streamline reviews and reduce the amount of due cards. The idea is pretty simple: instead of sending failed reviews back to the red pile, there would be the option to "demote" a card to a lower box, and also set its next review interval to a small amount, eg. ~ 3 days.
If the next review fails, the card would eventually fall back to the red pile. A card in box 1 or 2 would likely fall back to the red pile, but a card that already has 4+ successful reviews would not return to the "failed" pile straightaway. Instead it would come back for review within a few days. Upon succesful review it would be rescheduled based on the lower box it was moved to, so for example instead of 6 months it might come back in a month. Still this would save several reviews trying to move up the card again.
Any input would be appreciated. Let me know what you think!
- Soon: On / Kun examples words in SRS flashcards18 May 2015
- I am working on adding the On / Kun example words that are currently available in Custom Review, to the Spaced Repetition flashcards.
Thus when you have completed RTK you may want to enable this option so you can start associating characters to their readings,, and potentially note down some vocabulary as well.
- Forum link.13 May 2015
- The community forum link is back. You can access the forum from the "More" dropdown.
- Small QoL tweak for story editing.7 May 2015
- The error message displayed when saving a story that is too long now displays the count of characters that are over the limit (for example, "Story is too long (512 characters maximum, 23 over the limit)"). This should make it easier to whittle down a long story or text imported from other sources. Thanks to ralfkl for the suggestion!
And wow... Kanji Koohii (previously "Reviewing the Kanji") will be ten years old this August ! That is rather ancient by Internet standards =)
On a personal level, I am awaiting surgery (septoplasty) in July, which should help me breathe properly through the nose! I feel like this has a big impact on my sleep right now, and my general energy and motivation levels. Things got worse about a year ago when I started waking up regularly with a headache and a heavy head that lasted the whole day. Thankfully with nasal strips those headaches are gone. Now I just have to slog through the mornings till surgery. >_>
And as always, thank you for the support! There have been generous donations in March, more than usual thanks to a donation run from Sebastian.

Eyeheight announces a new addition to its range of autolegalizing color correctors. The CC-3G is designed for use in digital cinema production, post and presentation as well as high-end television. Compatible with latest-generation 3Gb/s infrastructure, it accepts all commonly used standards from interlaced 525/625-line SD up to progressive 1080-line 50-frame and 1080-line 60-frame HD.
The CC-3G allows fast adjustment of color balance to ensure visual consistency between adjacent sequences and throughout a program. An integral legalizer automatically conforms outgoing signals fully to user-defined standard output parameters or to the default EBU Technical Recommendation R103-2000. This is a vital concern given the potential of equipment operating in YUV color space to exceed the levels specified by broadcasters and transmission service providers for content delivery through RGB-based and composite networks.
Control of the CC-3G is via a dedicated panel. Adjustment of red, green and blue component levels, lift and master gamma as well as overall luma, chroma gain, black-level adjustment and overall hue can be performed in real time. The CC-3G also uses Eyeheight's proven and effective luma overshoot and undershoot suppression.
Configurable parameters such as legalization levels are accessible via an intuitive menu system based on LED pushbuttons with electronically generated legends. Settings assigned by one or more operators can be stored in six internal nonvolatile memories.
The CC-3G incorporates a color-corrected output plus a preview output. Individual R, G and B indicators on the preview output show legalize-clipped areas. Original and color-corrected video can be compared via an operator-adjustable split screen. Other features include autosensing SD/HD-SDI inputs, error-detection handling/cyclic-redundancy check reinsertion and full 10-bit internal processing.
Using Eyeheight's I-Bus network, each panel can control up to six plug-in modular color correction cards in a 1RU smart chassis. This makes the CC-3G one of the most compact color correctors on the market. Up to eight panels can be networked. The system also includes a maintenance mode to assist installation.

Habitat Restoration
Each year, SPAWN volunteers contribute hundreds of hours towards restoring streamside habitat in our community throughout the Lagunitas Creek Watershed.
Volunteers (including students, biologists, and citizens from across the Bay Area) work to restore and re-create riparian habitat that provides much needed shade for young salmon and trout in our local waterways.
Recent restoration work has focused on replanting areas of the San Geronimo Golf Course and Samuel P. Taylor State Park. View our online map of habitat restoration sites to learn more about past projects.
Find an upcoming event here and help save our local coho salmon!
Native Plant Nursery
Our nursery, launched in 2006, is run with the energy and passion of local community members. Join us every Friday from 10am – 1pm to prepare seeds, sow and tend native plants ranging from ferms to redwoods. The native plants you tend will be used for local stream restoration projects!
First time volunteers are required to RSVP, to sign up and to receive directions to our nursery in Lagunitas, please email SPAWN Watershed Biologist Preston Brown at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Landowner Assistance
Local landowners play a key role in protecting our endangered salmon and maintaining the beauty of our local creeks. SPAWN provides technical consulting on erosion control and habitat improvement projects for streamside residents in the San Geronimo Valley.
Past projects have helped local landowners do everything from maintain dirt roads that were distributing unnecessary amounts of dirt into our steams to design environmentally friendly erosion controls.
SPAWN also responds to many calls from concerned citizens about problems or emergencies that impact our streams and rivers. Our staff and volunteers respond to these calls and help refer problems to the appropriate agencies if necessary or find ways to prevent or repair the problem. Learn more here.

Holiday Luncheon
At our annual Holiday Luncheon on Dec. 3rd, 2014 at the FW Country Club, Alliance members and their guests enjoyed private shopping with local area businesses: Castle Gallery (Jody Hemphill Smith), Emily Kai, Matilda Jane (Sara Spit-ler), Modern Muse Jewelry (Vivian Tran), Monogram Shoppe (Sara Keltsch), Arbonne (Preeti Jain), Thirty-One Bags (Sara Ensign), CAbi (Nancy Gouloff-Grabner), Skin Care Solutions (Rachelle Hanson), and St. John's Orthodox Church Baklava, who all generously donated 10% of their sales that day back to the Alliance. Over $1000 was raised for the Alliance to use towards their Health Careers Scholarship program.
A three course meal was served and Lana Hoffman, a nurse with the Healthier Moms and Babies organization, gave participants an informative presentation about their work with the Burmese population in our community. In support, Alliance members brought much needed items from the HMB wish list to the luncheon for donation. The Alliance would like to thank all who attended!

Spring 2015
Working in conjunction with area health care professionals, the Alliance is proud to have developed Doctor's Day into one of the longest-running health fairs in our area with record attendance of over 2,500 in recent years. On Saturday, March 7, our 20th Annual Doctor's Day was held at Science Central. The event ran from 10 am to 3 pm with free admission until 2 pm thanks to the continued and generous sponsorship of Lutheran Health Network, Parkview Health, and the FW Medical Society Foundation, with the added support of SYM Financial Advisors this year.
To mark our 20th year, Mayor Tom Henry conducted a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 10 am to kick off the day's events! In addition, the Alliance collaborated with Irwin Elementary School (a Fort Wayne Community Science and Math magnet school) on a "Careers in Medicine" contest, which was offered to 3rd-5th grade students. They were asked to highlight a career in medicine that interested them through an essay, poster board, or power point presentation. To get them started, the Doctor's Day committee visited Irwin and presented the students with the contest guidelines (including researching the education necessary for the chosen career, listing some of the daily activities associated with the job, and why they chose to highlight that particular career), and short descriptions of 24 different careers in the medical field for them to consider. They could choose one of the careers listed or seek out another area of interest on their own.
Principal Ingrid Laidroo-Martin and the teachers at Irwin were instrumental in implementing the contest and helping to narrow the 149 entries to the top three from each class (18 projects) for our panel of judges to evaluate. The Doctor's Day committee, along with three physicians, Ronald Baker, Paul Bojrab, and Keith Davis, met to review the 18 finalists. Through a numbered point system, results were recorded and tallied to reveal 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners from each grade. The winners were recognized at Doctor's Day, where they presented their projects at 1:30 pm in the Lincoln Financial Demonstration Theater. All students received a ribbon and the 1st place winners received a one year family membership to Science Central, in addition to a gift certificate to the gift shop.
As in previous years, there were over 30 interactive booths featuring health-related and medical career information, hands on children's activities, live demonstrations by local physicians and health professionals, an ambulance for kids to explore, and hospital helicopter landings. We had 20 healthy food bags providing breakfast, lunch and dinner for a day donated by Alliance members and over 50 children's items and four bikes with helmets given out throughout the day.
The Alliance would like to thank our many volunteers and supporters who make this day a successful community service project!
Health Careers Scholarships
Part of caring for our community includes preparing for the future. The Alliance is committed to the field of medical education and supports this cause with annual health career scholarships. This is the 14th year that the Alliance has supported students studying Surgery Technology, Radiology Technology, Physical Therapy or Nursing. This year, we are pleased to announce a new scholarship partner with SYM Financial. Melissa Somerville and her committee spent a great deal of care reviewing and selecting two winners in March. Once selected, the winners were listed on our website www.alliancefw.org on the scholarship page. Since their selection was after this articles due date, specific information about the winners will be shared in the Summer Quarterly edition.
Ribbon cutting ceremony
In the midst of fundraising and organizing our community projects and programs, Alliance members become friends. We are here to support and encourage each other while fulfilling our mission and purpose. Membership is at the heart of the Alliance. Come, join us and see where you can use your talents to better the community in which you live. Visit us on our website www.alliancefw.org or check us out on Facebook. We cannot wait to meet you.
Upcoming Events
The Alliance will be hosting the 14th Cinderella Dress Day on Saturday, April 11th from 9 am until noon at the IPFW Ballroom 2101 E. Coliseum Blvd, Fort Wayne. This event is open to any female high school student. We will be educating our participants on relevant health care information for young ladies, and will provide the opportunity to select a prom dress, shoes, purse and accessories. This event has really grown over the past few years and we anticipate high attendance this year. If you would like to volunteer, please contact Mary Kate Doyle at email@example.com.

About the ManufacturerHamilton Louden Bruce decided to try his hand at furniture manufacturing in October 1943. Leasing a small building for fifteen dollars a month, he hired two helpers and started to manufacture canvas covered lawn chairs, producing only about 24 chairs a day. Mr. Bruce named the company Hammary, after himself, Hamilton (Ham) and his wife Mary (mary). In 1947, Mr. Bruce dropped the lawn chair line and began to manufacture a group of occasional tables, able to sell $200,000 in orders before even the first sample tables were made at the plant!

Love my new coffee table!
Erin from Randolph, NJ – Verified Buyer
Beautiful sturdy table! Love the glass top! I thought I wasn't going to like the caster wheels, but they are so small I hardly notice them! My husband did say it took a while to put together though. I will be order the matching side tables!
I love this table!
Mary from Lititz, PA – Verified Buyer
It may be strange to be this excited about a new coffee table, but I am! It replaces a tried and true piece purchased in 1972. The proportions of the table are perfect with my sofa. I love the glass top and shelf. My husband felt it was a little difficult to assemble but the results were worth the challenge. Interestingly, this Hammary table replaces my Hammary table from 1972 so it is obviously an established company.
Extremely Pleased! Great Savings!
Jayne from Bloomingdale, IL – Verified Buyer
Saw this at several stores - saved over $200.00! Table is very sturdy - not cheap at all! The wood tone is darker than the photo - very rich. Also slightly distressed - that's why we like it! Glass is beveled. I have a very handy hubby - does take time to assemble - took him about 45 minutes to unpack and assemble - so for most would take longer! Extremely pleased! Thanks for the fast shipping, too! Our first purchase - we will be back!

Donald from Rancho Cucamonga, CA – Verified Buyer
Very nice coffee table perfect size for my room. A little hard to put together but once done I really like it. great buy for the money. Would be perfect if they offered feet with it as well.
Great table!
Kay from NORMAN, OK – Verified Buyer
I love this table....when I lifted the top piece out of the box I knew I would love the table. I attempted to assemble myself but the legs have to be held so the deck hardware lines up.....you need at least two people unless you have fancy clamps etc. The glass is good quality, I just can't say enough good about this table. I am very happy with it and would highly recommend it.
Perfect Coffee Table!
Matthew from Los Gatos, CA – Verified Buyer
This was exactly what we were looking for! Got the entire set - this along with the two different End Tables. The construction took a little while because there are lots of screws and stuff, but the construction is solid and the quality is awesome. Very happy with this table!

Fantastic quality!
Amy from Portland, OR – Verified Buyer
So happy with the purchase, plus we lucked out and didn't have to assemble it because I paid for in home delivery on the matching tv stand.
Perfect for our room!

Wonderful look and the perfect size. Not difficult to assemble, and it is a great transitional piece.

Acorda says oral levodopa reduces duration of OFF episodes in PD patients
Subscribe for More Information
June 16, 2015
Acorda: Patients treated with CVT-301 showed greater motor function vs. placebo
Acorda Therapeutics presented data from a Phase 2b clinical trial of CVT-301, an inhaled levodopa under development for the episodic treatment of OFF episodes associated with Parkinson's disease. OFF episodes are characterized by a re-emergence of PD motor symptoms, such as impaired ability to move, muscle stiffness and tremor. The trial showed that patients experiencing an OFF episode, treated with CVT-301, showed significantly greater improvements in motor function than patients treated with inhaled placebo; the difference in improvement was already apparent 10 minutes after dosing and was durable for at least an hour, the longest time point at which patients were measured. These data were presented at the 19th International Congress of Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders in San Diego, CA. The Phase 2b trial was a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study in 86 people with PD for the treatment of OFF episodes. Participants were randomized to self-administer CVT-301 or placebo as an adjunct to oral PD medications. Participants received 35mg of CVT-301 or placebo delivered to the lung in weeks 1 and 2, and 50mg of drug or placebo delivered to the lung in weeks 3 and 4. In-office assessments of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part 3 were performed at weeks 1, 2 and 4. The primary endpoint was defined as the mean change from baseline in UPDRS III score after 4 weeks of treatment. UPDRS III is an established scale to monitor PD motor impairment, and is considered a standard in the field. In this study, participants receiving CVT-301 showed a statistically significant and clinically important reduction in average UPDRS III motor score compared to placebo and across all measured time points beginning at 10 and up to 60 minutes post-administration. Both doses of CVT-301 were well tolerated, with no increase relative to placebo in troublesome or non-troublesome dyskinesias during ON periods. There were no serious adverse events reported in the drug group, and the incidence of drug-related adverse events was similar between treatment groups. The most common adverse events were dizziness, headache and cough; there were no adverse events on cardiovascular or lung function. PD patients were able to self-administer treatment while in an OFF state.

Cyclones pull off major tournament
It was a massive undertaking, and while it didn't go off without a hitch, it generally went pretty well.
The Pueblo West High School boys basketball program hosted nearly 80 teams last weekend for its annual Mid-America Youth Basketball tournament.
"You have to wear so many hats. You're a coach for an hour, then you're a business manager, then you're security, then you're breaking up fights," said Pueblo West High School head coach Bob Tyler, who was a tournament director along with Jeff Larson, Rusty Smith and Doug McGraw.
The tournament is a major fundraiser for the program, and while it typically has featured about 45 years in the past, it exploded to 80 this year. By most accounts, it was a big success this year.
"It ran smoother than it has in nine years. We had over 50 parent volunteers at six different schools," Tyler said.
The event raised funds for new equipment and the team's travel budget, and it also demonstrated the strength of the P-dub Hoop Club. West's boys had six teams in the tournament, starting with a fourth grade team and running through high school varsity.
"It's great to see all those guys wearing the same uniform," Tyler said.
While the tournament is a big fundraiser for the program, it's also another chance for the high school team to do the important work of preparing for the next varsity season, which begins in December.
West lost a strong group of seniors which included essentially all of the team's leadership to graduation in May, and the team needs to remake itself before the next South-Central League campaign. The Cyclones have seen ups and downs this summer as they work toward that goal, and Tyler said last weekend's tournament had plenty of positives.
"I'm very excited. At the end of last year, looking at what we lost, I thought we could be pretty mediocre this season. But these kids have put in a lot of work," Tyler said. "Our big guys have all gained about 14 to 16 pounds in the weight room, and that's going to be big for us. I think our guards can hang with anybody, and our big guys will make the difference."
West won three games over the weekend, including a win over a Texas team that featured a 6-foot-10-inch center.
"That was a big coup for us. Any time you can be somebody with that kind of size, that's big," Tyler said.
There were several heroes over the weekend, and it started late Friday night with senior guard Nolan Maize taking it to the Pueblo Elite club, which features players from several Pueblo high schools.
Maize drained seven 3-pointers and finished with 23 points.
"I was really excited about that game from Noaln. If he could be consistent, he would be a heck of a player," Tyler said.
West struggled early but tied the game at 19 when sophomore guard Kenny Tack hit a 3-pointer. Tack finished with eight points.
The Cyclones took a 54-51 lead with 7:04 remaining in the game when Maize sank his seventh and final 3-pointer of the night, but the Cyclones never scored another point, and Elite closed on a 13-0 run to win, 64-54.
Tack and fellow sophomore guard Avery Pettway played well all weekend.
"I was really excited about our young guys," Tyler said.
Junior guard David Arrieta, only a year older but much more experienced at the varsity level, had a solid weekend, as well.
"He's always pretty steady," Tyler said.
Junior Billy Daugherty was hoping to make his return from a knee injury. Tyler said he's only at about 85 percent, so the Cyclones decided to play Daugherty on the junior varsity team this weekend to help ease him back into things. Tyler said Daugherty played well and the Cyclones' JV won the tournament title in the JV bracket.

Sea of Haredim 370.
(photo credit:Marc Israel Sellem)
In his op-ed contribution (Why haredim should be Zionists, April 24), Dov Lipman
argues that "Haredim, who accept the Bible, the Talmud and the rabbis should
embrace Zionism and the State of Israel." I think that haredim would
disagree with his conjunction of "Zionism and the State of Israel" and argue
that the two are not identical.While almost all of them support the
latter vis-à-vis the Palestinians, they oppose the former, but that all depends
on what one means by the term "Zionism."Most of Lipman's arguments are
based on the traditional Jewish love of the Land of Israel and the desire to
live there in order more fully to live a Torah-centred life, especially by
observing the agricultural laws that apply only there. A further attraction was
the Ottoman millet system that gave internal autonomy to religious communities,
as opposed to the increasing interference by Enlightenment-inspired European
states that made its abolition a condition for the emancipation of Jews as
individuals.As a result, Jews immigrated in increasing numbers in the
18th and 19th centuries and formed the basis of the pre- Zionist Old Yishuv,
from which the haredi sector has developed. Similar sentiments also motivate
most post-1967 immigrants from the Western world.Zionism really only
came into existence as a political movement in response to the wave of pogroms
that swept the Russian Empire in the 1880s that were perceived as signaling that
Jews could not expect equal rights and that the solution of assimilation could
not work because of often violent non-Jewish opposition.It posited that
this "Jewish problem" was caused by the unnatural nature of Jews as a minority
within Europe and that it could only be solved if Jews formed a nation-state, in
which they would be the majority, when the non-Jews would accept them into the
family of nations. Originally it would have accepted a state anywhere (e.g.
Uganda) but soon abandoned this idea when it realized that this would not appeal
to popular Jewish sentiment and, therefore, would not attract any large-scale
immigration.The growth worldwide of anti-Zionism has shown that this
program has failed and Israel vis-à-vis the rest of the world is in much the
same situation as were Jews in Europe in the late 19th and 20th centuries.
Anti-Semitism has morphed into anti- Zionism – the underlying hostility is
unchanged.A further distinction between modern Zionism and its religious
precursors is that, as Herzl put it, "the rabbis should be confined to the
synagogues," i.e. religion should be confined to the private domain and have no
influence in the running of the state. This program was implemented by Mapai,
which was the dominant power in the Jewish community during the British Mandate
and in the early years of the state.By controlling the issuing of
admission documents, it effectively discriminated against religious immigrants
from Eastern Europe in the interwar years. After the establishment of the state,
it also made great, and largely effective, efforts to "modernize," i.e. alienate
from religious observance, those coming from the Muslim world.IN MORE
recent times there has been a greater accommodation of religious sentiments, but
this is resisted by many in elite positions such as the Supreme Court and the
higher echelons of the IDF. For example the latter's ruling that "religious
soldiers [be] denied [the] option of using earplugs in ceremonies in which women
sing" (report, April 24) shows that anti-religious coercion is still all too
common.Such inflexibility is one reason why haredim by and large are not
willing to serve in the ranks of the IDF. It also explains why they are so
ambivalent when it comes to secular celebrations such as "Israel's Memorial Day,
Israel's Independence Day, or Jerusalem Day" and why "no prayers were said for
the state or on behalf of the IDF soldiers" in their circles.The
antagonism of the majority of the Israeli press which tends to suggest that the
minuscule minority in the Natorei Karta, who are passionately anti-Israel and
participate in demonstrations against the state and fraternize with such of its
opponents as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, are somehow representative of haredim only
adds to their alienation from the rest of society.Many perceive that
they are seen by it in much the same way as Jews are seen in Europe by
anti-Semites.Probably most readers will be unaware that these Natorei
Karta fanatics have been disowned by almost every group within the haredi world,
including the Satmar Hassidim, who hold that it is forbidden to set up a Jewish
state before the coming of the Messiah.In Manchester, for example, their
synagogues have expelled the local activist and the haredi burial society has
informed him that it will not bury him, and returned his
contributions.Once general Israeli society understands the true, and
basically non-threatening, nature of haredi anti-Zionism and appreciates that it
can coexist with genuine support for Israel, one might hope that some
accommodation can be found that will be acceptable to both groups.The
author is a retired lecturer in Mathematics at the Manchester Metropolitan
University and a frequent contributor to both the Jewish and general press

Originally written on Lady At The Bat | Last updated 6/26/12
Nick Swisher's 3rd inning home run and three 8th inning put-outs were a big part of the Yankees 7-1 win over the Cleveland Indians last night at the Stadium. Swisher was his usual boisterous self during the game, celebrating his contributions with that trademark flamboyance of his that makes people either love him or hate him. I hadn't really thought there were people who disliked Nick Swisher until the Subway Series began at Yankee Stadium earlier this season. Mets fans and media people who have had no dealings with Swisher bitterly criticized him, and called Yankees Universe a bunch a hypocrites for calling out Jose Reyes when he, supposedly, acted the same way. Around the same time, those Men's Journal Poll results were published, and they showed that Swisher's peers voted him the third-most hated player in MLB.Is all of this fair? Is it really fair to compare Swisher to Jose Reyes and to put so much stock into the Men's Journal Poll? No. First of all, the Men's Journal Pol...

Those who wish to begin a Tsa Lung practice, which is an advanced but achievable discipline, are encouraged to seek a teacher.
In Yes You Can: The achievable Diet, Diana Le Dean searches for the silent killers and suggests alternatives.
I find myself mostly in the realist camp, looking hard at achievable goals and usable power.
early 14c., from Old French achever (12c.) "to finish, accomplish, complete," from phrase à chef (venir) "at an end, finished," or Vulgar Latin *accapare, from Late Latin ad caput (venire); both the French and Late Latin phrases meaning literally "to come to a head," from stem of Latin caput "head" (see capitulum).
The Lat. caput, towards the end of the Empire, and in Merov[ingian] times, took the sense of an end, whence the phrase ad caput venire, in the sense of to come to an end .... Venire ad caput naturally produced the Fr. phrase venir à chef = venir à bout. ... From this chief, O.Fr. form of chef (q.v.) in sense of term, end, comes the Fr. compd. achever = venir à chef, to end, finish. [Auguste Brachet, "An Etymological Dictionary of the French Language," transl. G.W. Kitchin, Oxford, 1878]Related: Achieved; achieving.

Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood Review
Call of Juarez shows of its beginnings in the new prequel: Bound in Blood
Western themed games have never gotten the same attention as modern day shooters or World War 2 games. Perhaps it's the unattractive and clumsy guns that turn people off, after all, who'd want a rusty ladies gun when you could be vaporising aliens with a Spartan Laser? But western games such as 2006's Call of Jurez shouldn't be dismissed so quickly. Both the locations and dialog of these 19th century themed games offer a lot of uniqueness to an overcrowded first person genre and Bound in Blood is no exception.
Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is set several years before the original Call of Juarez and follows the exploits of the McCall brothers, Ray, Thomas and William as they travel across the wild west, getting into and causing plenty of trouble. Ray, who you might remember from the previous game, is the elder and the tougher of the two selectable brothers and there's Thomas, who's much lighter on his feet but just as hotheaded. Throughout the game the siblings get involved in bar fights, shootouts and women while their younger brother William tries his best to keep them out of trouble, often giving some great back and forward dialog. The story begins with Ray as part of the Confederate army fighting off waves of Union soldiers, this military scene quickly changes after Ray and Thomas walk out from the war to defend their own home. The story remains as interesting throughout, although sadly there isn't any story variety in playing through again as the two brothers generally stick together, this is even more unfortunate as the game does run rather short at about six hours and co-op play is strangely absent.
Weapon choices vary between characters to a degree, both can equip the basics such as rifles and pistols (dual pistols for Ray) but each brother has a little bit of specialization. Ray's handy with a Gatling gun and explosives, where Thomas can equip bows and knives. The weapon selection does a little to vary up the gameplay but Thomas' lasso also opens up a different path through the levels, although these diversions never last particularity long. On the whole the gameplay is a very linear A to B affair, there's little in the way of multiple routes to your destination beyond your character selection, with the exception of a couple of points where the game dips its toe into an open world mode. The open world sections are kept rather short and there's just six of these optional missions in total throughout the game, in which you'll ride off and defeat a group of guys and finally defeat their leader in a showdown. These showdowns are the classic one-on-one shootouts, which also used several times throughout the main story in place of boss battles. To win a showdown you'll have to keep your hand close to your gun while also moving around to keep your opponent lined up, this can get tricky as moving around shifts your hand around and you'll have to keep it ready to go when the bell sounds and you grab for your gun and make the killing blow. These shootouts get increasingly tougher but offer a unique diversion and a fistful of money which you can spend weapons shopping. There's no great depth to the weapon purchases, perhaps for the better, but upgrading your rusty six shooter for a pair of golden ladies guns will make a big difference in both your accuracy and damage.
The graphics in the previous Call of Juarez were of a pretty high standard and now Bound in Blood is the first game to use an updated version of Techland's Chrome engine used in the previous game, which looks amazing. Both character animations and graphical effects look excellent and along with the great audio and well read and written dialog, the atmosphere is solid. From bugles piping music while you're fighting for the Confederates to the musical score it's hard to fault any part of the experience, except for some detail pop up on the consoles. Beyond the cut scenes there's some good backwards and forwards between the brothers during the firefights, however it's a pity more dialog wasn't produced as even the wittiest dialog does get a little tiresome when you've heard it for the third of forth time.
As I mentioned earlier, the single campaign will last a short six hours and perhaps up to eight on the second play-through, there is an unlockable difficulty level of "Very Hard" which more than lives up to its name. The difficulty of the whole game is rather uneven, with the beginning chapters being tougher than the middle and even with the auto health re-gen its not uncommon for the enemy to simply overpower you with numbers despite their poor intelligence. Fortunately your other brother isn't as brain dead as the rest of the AI, rarely will he get himself killed unless you've left him alone, he also doesn't get lost or stuck and as long as you're working on killing the enemy he does a fair job of helping out.
If the partner AI isn't for you then you'll be missing the campaign due to the lack of co-op, but there's still a fun multi player game to be had. You have your staple death match and team death match along with an assault mode and a VIP mode. Assault mode has some interesting scenario, one of which involves the lawmen defending a bank from the bandits. Assault has the usual assault objectives of planting explosives or defusing them hasn't changed much, but having it in a western setting and escaping on horseback is quite novel. Some of the multi player maps do have a little problem with choke points and dead ends, which is most obvious with the VIP mode as if you can hold a single choke point the VIP can sit in relative safety. Playing in ranked mode earns you money which can be spent on unlocking extra classes that can in turn be leveled up, although the level ups are not persistent between matches. The multiplayer modes are a lot of fun and the map variety does vary widely even through there does seem to be a slightly bigger emphasis on camping and sniping than usual.
You can count the good western games that have come out this century on one hand and with other great games such as Gun starting to show their age, Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is a fun first person shooter that doesn't disappoint.


text: Baramuda & Deex - Funk You Come Again (Columns Of Knowledge Recordings) by 8DPromo published on 2011/10/07 21:20:39 +0000 "Funk You Come Again" is the first release for Netherlands-based producer Baramuda on the northeastern US house music label Columns Of Knowledge. Baramuda has previously released tunes on labels like Spinnin' Records, Abzolut, and Made In NL and has seen support from Mastiksoul, Judge Jules, Rene Amesz, David Penn, D-Formation, and many others. His rounded house sound covers a lot of territory, blending from house to techno to disco. The horn-laden disco progression of "Funk You Come Again" should fit well in the sets of house music DJs all over. It chugs along and breaks down with a forward surge, recalling a vibe that is at once retro, funky, and pumping … just really good peak time house music. Red hot UK DJ/producer Filthy Rich supplies the remix, adding to his exhaustive catalog that includes tracks for the likes of Cr2, Toolroom's Leaders label, Nervous, and his own Control Freq label. His version of "Funk You Come Again" is unbridled tech-house that hits dead on and takes the cut in a totally different direction. Filthy Rich's big world sound blends the track between filtered disco-tech and tribal-tech with many layers grooving and washing across the track. There's a lot happening here, and plenty to reward the dance floor. Dig in! DJ Romain - "Slamming track. A must-play, solid dance floor movement. Will get support from me." Benji Candelario - "Good tune!" Mark Knight (Toolroom) - "Nice work from Filthy Rich!" Onionz - "Hot!" Static Revenger - "Great work!" Joey Silvero (Distant People) - "I like the sub-bass and the cool drum fills. Rockin' mix." Dario D'Attis (Purple Music) - "Both mixes sound amazing." Fer Ferrari (Deepclass Records) - "Filthy Rich for me! Very good." Louk - "Love the drive on this! Wicked percussion and I like the title, too (Simpsons fan here)." Nick Holder - "Wicked track! Both mixes are cool, feeling Filthy Rich Remix a bit more." Checkpoint Charlie (MyCuppaT Blog) - "Solid tech house here. Big bass, incredible build-ups, lovely rhythms - a real winner. Rich's remix throws down that strong, bouncy vibe with a naughty, rumbling bass line that really works for me. Going straight into the box!" Additional support from Audiojack, Dubfire, Gus Calderone, Christos Kedras, Robert Owens, Timo Garcia, DJ Style, Hippie Torrales, and Merlyn Martin.Available now from Juno Download and Beatport Comment by DJMinx I like!

I discovered this product through one of my beauty box services and was instantly in love. It's lightweight, non-sticky and tames my flyaways and frizzy ends while adding shine. I can't believe how inexpensive it is. It smells great and easily performs as well as my former favorite by Aveda. Love love love this whole line of products.

Great hairspray
By Charlie A
from Congers, NY
Doesn't damage hair the way other firm hold hairsprays do. Leaves hair soft but manageable.
Hold approximately 12 inches from hair & continue to move can while spraying for a natural even hold.

John Cradlebaugh (February 22, 1819 – February 22, 1872) was the first delegate to the United States House of Representatives from Nevada Territory.
Born in Circleville, Ohio, he attended the common schools; Kenyon College (in Gambier, Ohio) and Miami University (in Ohio). He studied law, was admitted to the bar in 1840, and was appointed United States associate justice for the district of Utah on June 4, 1858.
In March 1859, Cradlebaugh convened a grand jury in Provo, Utah concerning the Mountain Meadows massacre and several other unsolved murders and crimes that occurred in the territory, but the jury declined any indictments.[1][2] In doing this Cradlebaugh called out the federal troops and terrorized the local residents. His high handed actions on this occasion were condemned by both Utah Governor Alfred Cumming and United States Attorney General Jeremiah S. Black.[3]
Cradlebaugh moved to Carson City, Nevada, and upon the formation of the Territory of Nevada was elected a Delegate to the Thirty-seventh Congress, serving from December 2, 1861, to March 3, 1863, during the first years of the American Civil War.[4]
He was the colonel of the 114th Ohio Infantry and served from April 27, 1862, until honorably discharged on October 20, 1863, on tender of resignation after being wounded in the Battle of Vicksburg.
Cadelebaugh returned to Nevada and engaged in the mining business until his death at Eureka; interment was in Forest Cemetery, Circleville, Ohio.

With all the buzz surrounding innovation in government, how can federal employees overcome some of the red tape and get to the actual innovating? Hint: It's all about persevering and thinking ahead, says Tom Fox, vice president for leadership and innovation at the Partnership for Public Service. He spoke with Management Watch to share his insight on how feds can bring their ideas into fruition and what agencies can do to foster a culture of innovation.
Q: How do you become an innovative fed?
A: I think that the first thing is to have the characteristic of persistence. Oftentimes, folks are under the impression that innovation is about the next big idea. You can't overlook the importance of creativity. But I think that the trait that distinguishes folks to deliver results is persistence [despite] indirect or direct opposition.
Q: How do you best implement and realize an innovative idea?
A: If you want to try to implement an innovative idea, you have approach it almost like a second job. Recognize that you probably have to go beyond your traditional duties to work on this. In the federal space, they want to know how much does it cost and how will they take this idea into implementation? So you actually have to invest ahead of time to think through the sort of questions other folks will be asking.
Q: What are some of the hurdles feds have to overcome in terms of pitching their ideas to management?
A: The first thing is the fear factor. A lot of times, folks are afraid. Someone might not like their ideas, so overcoming that fear factor is the first thing. Have some recognition that the idea is good and worthy. The second thing is, before you go and pitch an idea to a leader or senior executive, share your idea with some other folks. Approach colleagues whose opinions you trust and who would give you honest feedback. A trait of really successful innovators is that they share ideas readily with people.
Q: What areas in government are in most need of innovative ideas? Is it mostly where there's money to be saved or where something can be made more efficient?
A: I think it's hard to separate the two. Certainly, you're more likely to get an audience for your idea if it will increase efficiency or save money. Look for the $25, 24-hour solution. Just try something out and see what works and collect ideas from other people. Get their feedback and see how you might be able to refine your idea.
Q: How can agencies best foster a culture of innovation?
A: There are a couple of things. One is for senior leadership to let folks know that, 'we're really hungry for your ideas right now.' Oftentimes, folks don't realize just how much flexibility they already have and they think they have to ask for permission. Really try to set boundaries as to where people need to ask for permission and where they can just go and do things differently. The second thing is to reward folks for their innovation. And by reward, I don't mean necessarily mean a financial reward; it could simply be recognition that someone is helping the agency.
Q: Who are some of the most influential government leaders who could serve as inspiration to current and future innovators?
A: I think Todd Park [CTO at the Department of Health and Human Services] needs to go on that list. I think he has the impact and influence beyond his title or his agency. When we talk to folks all across the government who are doing work that's described as innovation or innovative, everyone says is that [federal CTO] Aneesh Chopra is one who is providing all the support in the system folks need to push the boundaries. But beyond that, there are a lot of folks who are trying little things at different agencies and oftentimes that work is never labeled innovation. So often the greatest inspirations are folks like our Service to America Medal winners. You look at what those folks are doing and it's exceptionally innovative and results driven. But they're just doing their work -- they don't see it as innovation per se.

Went to Helgoland for an overnight visit. Lovely island and the hotel was perfect. Lovely room, great view and close to the Hafen :) The breakfast in the morning was amazing, great selection and fantastic!
