Earlier this week Etihad Airways, the national airline of the UAE, has marked its 15 years of commercial flying with a number of events, including a human mosaic and cake. It has been 15 years since its inaugural commercial flight to Beirut on 12th November 2003.
In a fitting tribute to the first flight, guests travelling on flight EY535 to the Lebanese capital enjoyed a cake-cutting ceremony at the departure gate this morning. The airline also presented each guest with a limited-edition cabin crew scarf and tie set, designed by iconic fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg, while younger flyers were gifted Etihad teddy bears by cabin crew wearing the airline's first-ever uniform from 2003, in addition to its current style.
More than 400 employees from Etihad Airways Engineering and Etihad Technical teams gathered together to celebrate the 15 Year Anniversary of Etihad Airways, with a human mosaic photographed in front of one of the airline's Airbus A380s at the Etihad Airways Engineering facility at Abu Dhabi International Airport.

Here is a comic about the Xbox Live price hike.
So my "two gamers on a couch" has become my go-to thing when I don't have a game to fuel my jokes. This happens now and again with a lot of comic-making folk. (I'll leave it to the comments for people to cite examples. Would be bad form to do so here.) These jokes are easy to do and work well [enough] to fill the void when I'm low on material. Which is always the case when I'm not consuming games that can feed the comic mill. Breen is also good for this, but I don't want him taking over too much.
If you're curious, here is what I'm playing these days:
I lost myself in Mass Effect during my convalescence and I'm still working to find my way out of that place again. I am certain the path to freedom will lead me through the endgame. Simply walking away from this playthrough is not an option. I must see it through.
Chime. Or, as I've come to call it over the last 12 hours, OMG CHIME!!!!! If you like Tetris / Lumines type stuff, then the gameplay will probably appeal to you. (It's actually most similar to carpentry from Puzzle Pirates.) A few weeks ago I talked about making a station for Pandora. It's like someone turned that station into a game. (Artists include Orbital, Moby, Lemon Jelly. The game also includes, somewhat incongruously, JoCo's "Still Alive".) The game sort of remixes the songs as you go. There are only a few songs, which means I might (hopefully) get tired of this game quickly enough that it won't wreck my life.
I'm obviously playing WoW, but if that time yields comedic material it must be harvested for the coming Let's Play. (Which begins in eight weeks. Which is a long time if you're waiting to read something, but so terrifyingly imminent when it's an approaching deadline.)
I've got Assassin's Creed 2 here. (Review copy. Ubisoft's ludicrous DRM makes buying this game a way of getting yourself digitally mugged.) But my heart is not in it. I can't find fault with the game. It's not that anything is bad. The story is not boring. (If you've played the game: Ezio just attended a hanging.) I just find myself not particularly curious what happens next. I put the game on hold a month ago and I still have no desire to return. I don't know why. I should make a comic about it, but this fire will not light. I have nothing to say about it.
I've also got a copy of Din's Curse, a game of looting and leveling. I sunk a couple of hours into that recently. Its status as an indie game with procedurally generated content means that there is very little specific enough to make fun of and few people who will get the joke. I'll probably give it a long-form review here, but it can't feed my comic.
I guess we're at the tail end of the summer slump. Soon we'll enter October and we'll once again have more games than anyone knows what to do with.
EDIT: I just fixed about nine hundred typos in this entry. But during that edit I re-read the previous paragraph and it struck me as absurd. "Yeah, I'm only playing five games right now. Dang summer slump!" I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that.
EDIT II: Also: I'm still playing DDR. Not much to say about that aside from pointing out that the leap from tier 2 to 3 is difficult to the point of discouragement. I didn't play for a few weeks while I was ill, and now I'm fighting to get in shape again. Amazing how fast you can lose it.
The Disappointment Engine
No Man's Sky is a game seemingly engineered to create a cycle of anticipation and disappointment.
Overused Words in Game Titles
I scoured the Steam database to figure out what words were the most commonly used in game titles.
Steam Summer Blues
This mess of dross, confusion, and terrible UI design is the storefront the big publishers couldn't beat? Amazing.
Quakecon 2012 Annotated
An interesting but technically dense talk about gaming technology. I translate it for the non-coders.
Trusting the System
How do you know the rules of the game are what the game claims? More importantly, how do the DEVELOPERS know?

Toy Story 4 Annie Potts who is so good with "Bo Peep"
Annie Potts is "Bo Peep" in Toy Story 4 With the premiere of "Toy Story 4" just over two weeks away comes the introduction of a new character, Forky, whose creation was inspired by the childhood of Pixar animator Claudio De Oliveira. Forky, a spork made out of trash, is brought to life by Bonnie on her first day of Kindergarten. His character is unique because it is the first in the series to be made by a child. Throughout the movie, Woody teaches Forky the meaning of belonging to a child who loves him. "He was created by many people," De Oliveira told FabTV. "He went from department to department, from artist to artist. We had sessions to build our own Forkys to see which was better, and to borrow ideas from each other." De Oliveira had a special connection with Forky from the beginning. Growing up, he was one of the children who created toys from nothing.

The Long Journey, Part the First
It looked enormous - four feet off the ground (with no ramp!), 20 feet long, 8 feet high and just as wide. A big empty box waiting for every nearly every possession we have, whether precious or mundane, to be packed onto it in the space of three days. By ourselves. And we'd barely made a dent in the boxing and packing in the house. Our moves are always like this. Too particular to trust the packing and moving to professionals, too proud to ask for help, we leave it to the last minute and confidently insist that we can "do by self" as the toddlers are wont to say.
The container was dropped off on a Friday evening and was due be picked up the following Monday. Two days, three nights. D was sure that the container was more than enough to swallow what was left of our possessions after countless trips to Goodwill and the dump. How hard could it be?
We had no idea.
Fortunately, we have two very dear friends that practically insisted that we needed their help. They packed up their two children and their two dogs and all the extra moving blankets and packing tape they had lying around from their recent cross-country move and drove nearly two hundred miles from Seattle for the weekend. Boy are we lucky they did because, seriously, the job would have been impossible - wait let me all-caps that - IMPOSSIBLE to complete without them.
After two very long days and two very late nights and nearly 3,000 linear feet of stretch wrap, we got the job done, just. And we still had to leave behind more than we planned. D was a machine... he and our friend S carried everything to the truck and then D fit it all together with the finesse of a world-class jigsaw champion. In doing so, he lifted nearly every item we own no less than twice, often three times or more.
S was the king of stretch wrap - have you ever used this stuff? We encased nearly everything in this industrial plastic film to ensure it was secure, watertight and sticky enough to be fit together in a big block that won't slide around at sea. S quickly developed a two-man technique and stretch-wrapped like it would earn him time off for good behavior.
My friend R was a rock. She's a packing genius and systematically reduced all the random things laying around our house to neat packages for the boys to heave out. She made me laugh, provided critical moral support at a particularly low moment when I was exhausted and convinced we'd never be done, and generally reminded me why she's one of my best friends in the world. And I'm very glad it was a dear friend packing up my things, because one revelation I had that weekend was this: if you are going to let someone help pack up your life, you want them to be either a chosen sister who won't judge your housekeeping or the ridiculous detritus of your life... or a stranger you will never see again.
The truck driver was brilliant, assuring us about the security of our shipment while D (in his own words) "clucked about like a mother hen." This was our entire life packed in the giant box and it feels a bit weird to watch it be hauled off for a 15,000 mile, months-long journey by sea. It had started to snow and I went inside as the container was pulled off the drive.
A few minutes later, D still hadn't come in. I went outside to find him looking into the distance as the driver gingerly negotiated the potholes on our long country road. He watched until the trailer finally pulled out of view. Then we turned and went into the strangely sad, nearly empty house that was still going to be home for four more days.
But the journey was begun.

Thank goodness for friends, yours are true gems! Really glad your furniture started its long journey all safe and sound. Looking forward to the next installment and hearing all about your new life.ReplyDeleteReplies
Helen - Those friends are true gems. I'll never forget the phone call I got last summer when R rang to tell me, "We're moving to Seattle!" (from the east coast) and I said, "Great! We're moving to England!" Doh!Delete
Ah well, we've remained friends despite the distance for years now. I'm sure the little matter of an ocean in between won't make a difference. :-)
Also, "if you are going to let someone help pack up your life, you want them to be either a chosen sister who won't judge your housekeeping or the ridiculous detritus of your life... or a stranger you will never see again."
YES!!! I usually go with strangers, but when I moved from Colorado to Memphis without actually being present, I had my bestie pack me up. I received boxes labeled "Books...and love," everything was "....and love." She had to work her way through what must have seemed like miles of junk. Then I got to my favorite box-- labeled "CRAP... and love." Can't blame her...Replies
Sadie - That is brilliant! I love the way she labeled the boxes; what a beautiful friend.Delete
Besties are the best arent they? I stress something wicked at moving time and become less than pleasant to be around but my bestie has help me move a couple of times, the last into my current home, I had put my back out the week before and had various friends and brother in law move me while she cleaned the rented place and unpacked boxes in the new place while I shuffled around being next totally useless. She is my rock.ReplyDeleteReplies
I do think that moving is a telling testament to the depth and strength of a friendship. It's a horrible job to have to do for yourself, and those that are willing to step up and dig in to the thankless task on your behalf are definitely true friends. Yours sounds a keeper!Delete

Ahh. Can't believe I missed this the first time. It reminds me SO MUCH of our overseas moves...even though we used a moving company. Still.ReplyDelete

Various 2010
Published Mar 26, 2010German imprint Dial celebrates its tenth anniversary with 2010. In 2000, Peter Kersten (aka Lawrence and Sten), Paul Kominek (aka Pawel and Turner) and David Lieske (aka Carsten Jost) founded Dial as a means to produce and distribute the music they love without constraints. Their avoidance of trends has gained them international success, as Dial has become the new standard for quality, melodic, minimal techno and in 2008 charted as one of the best labels in Resident Advisor. Some recognizable milestones can be contributed to Pantha du Prince's This Bliss and Efdemin's self-titled release in 2007. 2010 celebrates the Dial family with an eclectic compilation of deep, melodic techno, house and downtempo experimentations. Some stunning standouts are John Robert's "Lines," a fluid tech house track full of melodic chimes and fractured drums; Kassian Troyer's "Tourist," for its infectious, chunky beats and delicately woven tonalities; and "No Beginning," a progressive, rhythmic house number by Rndm. Ten years later, Dial is still following its heart. What initially started out as a bunch of friends bonding over their passion for art and music has turned into a decade of releasing some of the finest and most influential electronic expressions.

I'm currently reading Frank McCourt's Teacher Man. (He's mostly known for his novel Angela's Ashes, which I haven't gotten around to reading yet.) Eric decided to get me this book for Christmas for a few reasons: 1) the guy's Irish and Eric's family is Irish which equals Eric's mild Irish obsession, 2) he read Angela's Ashes and loved it, and 3) he knows I'm freaking out about student teaching and then being a real teacher in August so he decided that this book might help.
Thus far, it's just about Frank McCourt's life as a teacher in New York. It's full of random memories that he shares with his students to get them to be quiet and stay in their seats. I'm enjoying it so far, except for the fact that teaching is becoming even more intimidating to me. I don't really have many stories to share with my future students, so his method of control probably won't work for me. I am hoping to a learn a bit more about life as a teacher by the end of the book though.
I'll let ya know if I discover anything great. =)

The Super-rich and the new order of American politics
June 2, 2014 Leave a comment
I don't know what's going on, but I keep coming across interesting journalism in Politico. The latest– a journalist's account of his attempts to infiltrate the Koch's annual big money gathering. Interesting details and this conclusion nails it:
Indian Wells was a snapshot of an extraordinary shift: the reordering of the political system by an elite fraternity of the superrich and a small brain trust of consultants who cater to them. Starting in 2010, a few dozen of the wealthiest donors turned on a gusher of mega-checks that have made them more important than the thousands of grassroots activists, small individual donors and even party leaders put together. Together, these donors have injected into campaigns sums that were once unimaginable, even as recently as the 2008 presidential election.
Intentionally or not, this new system has eroded the power of the official parties that have rigidly controlled modern politics for decades by doling out or withholding pork-barrel spending earmarks and campaign cash. Suddenly, party leaders have none of the former to offer (the result of symbolic belt-tightening reforms), and far less of the latter than big donors operating outside the party system. The result—the one Obama lamented on that rainy day in Washington state—is the privatization of a system that we'd always thought of as public. It amounts to the takeover—hostile or not—of American politics by the ultra-rich.
There's absolutely no way you can remotely justify this as good for democracy. Unless you are a Republican politician, sadly.

The annual Ultra packs will offer 10 free Showcase titles as compared to 6 in Mega packs, and the biennial packs will offer 20 free showcase titles as compared to 12 free showcase titles in similar Mega packs.
