A Laughing Child in Exchange for Sin
Exchanging palm trees for stately oaks, I deposited my firstborn child at a respected evangelical college this summer. It was an outcome nestled in the farthest reaches of my imagination when I was a pregnant college student 20 years ago. Dark, hopeless thoughts assaulted me throughout that pregnancy. I envisioned myself impoverished and alone or, in rare sunnier moments, as a bohemian heroine of sorts, dragging my grateful child along on my adventures. Still, I decided to keep my biracial baby after the counselor at the home for unwed mothers advised me to put him up for adoption. She said, "You're going to marry a doctor or lawyer someday, and what will his friends think?"
Though I was completely inadequate to the task before me, I didn't ever want my child to think I had given him up for adoption because of the color of his skin. So I determined to become the parent he deserved.
When he was a month old, I was accepted, at my interview, into Moore College of Art and Design in Philadelphia. As the admissions officer urged me never to stop painting, I glimpsed my mother across the street walking the baby in the stroller, and I knew instinctively that I didn't have it in me to both be a mother and pursue a dream in a distant city. These experiences were the seedbed of authentic faith as I began to surrender to love.
'Same Mom; Different Dads'
Not long after, an unlikely prince rode into our lives. I find it nearly impossible to separate the Lord's redemptive work from my husband's powerful love. He didn't make the mess, but he also didn't shrink from entering into the fray the way some men do—those who, despite their own sins, run from the consequences inflicted upon the women and children they leave. His lavish devotion ...

I've certainly seen worse, the song was pretty good. Wasn't very funny or interesting, but other then that it was pretty good.

Prion hypothesis: the end of the controversy?

Forty-three years have passed since it was first proposed that a protein could be the sole component of the infectious agent responsible for the enigmatic prion diseases. Many discoveries have strongly supported the prion hypothesis, but only recently has this once heretical hypothesis been widely accepted by the scientific community. In the past 3 years, researchers have achieved the 'Holy Grail' demonstration that infectious material can be generated in vitro using completely defined components. These breakthroughs have proven that a misfolded protein is the active component of the infectious agent, and that propagation of the disease and its unique features depend on the self-replication of the infectious folding of the prion protein. In spite of these important discoveries, it remains unclear whether another molecule besides the misfolded prion protein might be an essential element of the infectious agent. Future research promises to reveal many more intriguing features about the rogue prions.

Shadowgun: Deadzone is now available in the Play Store as a public beta, open for any device powered by a Tegra 3 chip. The much awaited multiplayer third-person shooter is a spin-off of Shadowgun (which was single player only) rather than a sequel, as the title might let you believe.
by Joe Hindy, 1 year ago
Madfinger Games first gave a demo for Deadzone at CES 2012. It's a free-to-play online shooter that, when it is eventually released, could bring a whole new demographic of gamers to Madfinger Games. With a solid catalog that includes Dead Trigger and Shadowgun, Deadzone could be a great release.

Ryan Lochte Reality Series Canceled After One Season
The E! series featuring the Olympic swimmer ended its run in May and averaged 440,000 total viewers over its eight-episode run.
E! is no longer swimming alongside Olympian Ryan Lochte.
The cable network has opted to cancel unscripted entry What Would Ryan Lochte Do? after one low-rated season, sources confirm to The Hollywood Reporter.
As first reported by TV Line, the series that followed the Olympic swimmer training for the 2016 Games, his personal life and empire, ended its eight-episode run in May averaging just 440,000 total viewers. (Meanwhile, a source close to E! says the network does want to work with the athlete and personality again in the future.)
PHOTOS: Ryan Lochte: From Olympian to Reality Star
The series received a sizable marketing push for the gold medalist in April, but opened to a paltry 807,000 viewers, losing nearly half of its E! news special lead-in featuring Ryan Seacrest interviewing the Kardashian family.
Lochte fielded multiple reality show offers after sporting a diamond American-flag grill at the summer Olympics and ultimately landed the docuseries at E! after guest roles on 30 Rock and 90210.

Edmonton band Jr. Gone Wild is getting its knuckles rapped for using a slightly altered version of Alberta's provincial shield to promote the band.
The province recently told the band it is breaking the law.
Lead singer Mike McDonald said the band has long promoted the province by hanging the provincial flag on stage, including one presented to the band by the government, and he's hurt by the sudden turnaround.
"If it was an offensive thing, if it was denigrating the province,. I could understand, " he told CBC News. "But this is — we meant to promote —we're from Alberta.
"Like, there's more to Alberta than politics, oil and hockey."
If the band doesn't comply, McDonald said they could be fined up to $1,000.
"(We) told them they need to stop using it," said Alberta Culture spokesperson Beryl Cullum. "The shield itself is an Alberta symbol ... and Albertans can use it, but they can't alter it."
He said he will meet with his bandmates to figure out their next step.

Ellen DeGeneres realized laughter was the best medicine when her parents divorced at 13, her mother battled breast cancer, she was molested by her stepfather and when one of her first loves was stolen from her by a car accident. The latter in particular kicked off the TGIFriday's waitress' stand-up career as it inspired her first monologue, "A Phone Call To God," which earned her the 1984 Showtime's Funniest Person in America award and motivated her to crisscross the country. In 1986, she became the first female comedian Johnny Carson invited to chat on The Tonight Show couch. Her next stop was TV, first playing an oddball secretary on Fox's Open House and then as a bookstore employee on These Friends Of Mine. (Ironically, she turned down a role in Friends before taking this similarly titled gig.) The show, rebranded as Ellen season 2, earned DeGeneres four Lead Actress Emmy and three Golden Globe nominations and an Emmy writing win. She relied on her chuckle-through-controversy strategy again in 1997 when she came out on the cover of Time, became the subject of much protest as TV's first openly gay star, and had her show cancelled. She was down, but not out as she continued to make films (EdTV, The Love Letter), had long-term love affairs with Anne Heche and photographer Alexandra Hedison, was praised for her deft and sensitive hosting of the post-9/11 Emmys and in 2003 voiced Dory in Disney behemoth Finding Nemo and launched her still-running multiple Emmy-winning daytime talk show. The face of CoverGirl (at 50!), who was only the second woman to host the Oscars solo and also spent a season as an American Idol judge, connected with Portia de Rossi in 2004 and married her in 2008, months before the state banned same-sex marriage.

From a homeland security standpoint, typically office, storage, and manufacturing buildings are not the subject of a man-made disaster, such as a terrorist attack. Such attacks would typically limited to critical locations such as "key" government buildings, so-called "symbols of democracy," transportation centers, nuclear power plants, and locations where "products of war" are produced (e.g., airplanes, helicopters, missiles, and other combat-related items). Nonetheless, standards are emerging for property owners and building managers to assess the vulnerability, or risk level, of their site and its facilities to a possible terrorist attack.
Typically, these assessment evaluations include potential vulnerability and risk levels based on the visibility of the building, the criticality of the site to the jurisdiction in which it is located, the impact that the facility has outside of its jurisdiction, the accessibility of the site has to the general public, possible site-related hazards from both a manufacturing and storage standpoint, the site's population capacity and, lastly, the potential to create mass casualties if the site is attacked. While these variables seem diverse and complex, it is possible to assess a site's potential vulnerability and risk by rating a facility using these criteria and a numerical ranking process for each category. The final score, or assessment rating, determines the site's potential exposure to a possible terrorist attack.
A site's vulnerability rating can be determined using the following nine variables, and ranking the response to each potential risk category using a six-point scale ranging from zero to five points. The lower the numerical ranking in each category, the lower the vulnerability or risk level of the site. Conversely, the higher the ranking the greater exposure the site has to a possible terrorist attack. The nine assessment criteria contained in this ranking process, as well as the rating scale used in each category, are explained in detail below.
Vulnerability Assessment
The nine criteria, or variables, selected for this building vulnerability assessment include the visibility of the site, the criticality of the site to its jurisdiction, the impact of the site outside of the jurisdiction in which it is located, and public accessibility to the site itself. Other criteria include a review of the possible hazards located at the site, the height of the structure, the type of construction, the population capacity of the site, as well as the potential for collateral mass casualties if the site is attacked. These rating classifications, along with various risk levels, are explained in greater detail below
Visibility Level of the Site
Question one relates to the level of the site's visibility using the following scale. Rating level zero equals "invisible," where the location is a "classified" or a "secret" location unknown to the general public. Ranking level one assumes the site has a "very low visibility," which also assumes that it is also a so-called "secret" and "classified" location, which is only known by a few people. Rating level two represents that the site has "low visibility," meaning the knowledge of its existence is public but generally not too well known. The third rating level should be used when the site has a "medium visibility," which is used when the existence of the facility is only known locally. Ranking level four means the site has a "high visibility," which translates into the fact that the existence of the site is typically known throughout the region. Lastly, ranking level five is used when a site has a "very high visibility."
The highest vulnerability assessment rating is only used when the site's existence, and purpose, is typically known nationally by members of the general public.
Criticality of the Site to its Jurisdiction
Question two focuses on the building's or site's criticality, or importance, to the jurisdiction (e.g., city or town) in which it is located. This includes an assessment of the impact that the site's assets have on the local population, economy, and/or government. The six possible assessment rankings in this category include rating level zero for "no usefulness" whatsoever, rating level one for "minor usefulness," rating level two for "moderate usefulness," rating level three for "significant usefulness," rating level four for "highly useful" and, lastly, the use of the highest ranking level, five, when the site's assets are "critical" to the city or town in which it is located.
This last assessment-ranking category is only used when a site or building is critical in its importance to the general area in which it is located using the above criteria and six rating level considerations.
Impact of the Site Outside of the Jurisdiction
Assessment category three examines the impact that the site or building has outside of the jurisdiction in which it is located. The question asked is "What affect would losing the facility have outside of our county?" The possible assessment rankings using the six-point scale include rating level zero for "none" (no impact), rating level one for "very low" impact, rating level two for "low" impact, rating level three for "medium" impact, rating level four for "high" impact and, lastly, rating level five for "very high" impact This subject deals with the potential negative impact of losing the site or building on the areas' population, economy, and/or local government.
This last assessment ranking is only used when a site or building serves as a large employer, has a significant impact on the local economy, and/or has a close and vital working relationship with its local government.
Accessibility of the Site to the Public
This assessment category asks about possible access to the site or building. The exact question posed is, "How accessible is the site?" The six possible ranking levels for this category range from "restricted" access to "unlimited" access.
The possible ranking assessments for this question are listed as follows. The ranking level zero stands for "restricted" access, which means that the site or building is patrolled 24/7, is fenced, alarmed, is equipped with security cameras, has controlled access that requires prior clearance, contains designated parking (with the requirement that no unauthorized vehicle can park within 300 feet of the facility), and has protected airspace and entranceways. The other possible assessment rankings account for the fact that the site is more "open" in its nature.
A rating level of one means the site has "controlled" access, which means the facility has a 24/7 security patrol, is fenced, has controlled access to vehicles and personnel, contains designated parking including a restriction that no unauthorized vehicles can park within 300 feet of the facility, and that the site has protected airspace and entranceways.
A ranking level of two means that access to the site is "limited" in nature. This means the site has security guards at the main entrance during regular business hours, is fenced, contains a security alarm, has controlled access for visitors, has designated on-site parking, and the requirement that no unauthorized vehicles can park within 300 feet of the facility. This rating level also includes the fact that the site has protected airspace and entranceways.
The third assessment rating level stands for "moderate" access, which means that the site and building have controlled access for visitors, has security alarms after regular business hours, has protected airspace and entranceways, contains designated parking areas, and has the requirement that there can be no unauthorized vehicles parking within 50 feet of the facility.
Ranking level four means the site has "open" access. This assessment rating means the site is open and has public access during regular business hours, has few if any safeguards in place, and also contains unprotected airspace and entranceways.
The last assessment ranking level in this category, rating level five, means the site has "unlimited" open access to the public, has no safeguards in place, and also has unprotected airspace and entranceways.
Possible Hazards Located on the Site
This rating category includes the assessment of the site relative to on-site hazards. This ranking area is for the assessment of the presence of legal weapons of mass destruction (WMD) materials, as well as chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive (CBRNE) materials in quantities that could make the site a target for a possible terrorist attack, or would complicate the public response to a terrorist incident at the site if one took place.
The possible six ranking levels for this category include "none" to "high" as follows. Rating level zero means that "none" of the possible WMD/CBRNE materials are located on the site. Rating level one means "minimal" WMD/CBRNE materials are present in moderate quantities, but they are controlled. Rating level two reflects a "low" hazards exposure and means that WMD/CBRNE materials are present in moderate quantities, but they are controlled. Rating level three reflects a "moderate" hazards exposure, which reflects there are major concentrations of WMD/CBRNE materials that have established control procedures, and that these materials are secure in the site. Ranking level four reflects a "high" degree, or major levels or concentrations of WMD/CBRNE materials are located on the site with only moderate control features in place.
The last rating criteria in this category is level five, which stands for "very high" presence of WMD/CBRNE materials on the site. This ranking assessment means major concentrations of WMD/CBRNE materials are located on the site, that no safeguards are in place, and this material is readily accessible to employees as well as non-staff personnel.
Height of the Building
This vulnerability assessment category includes a review of the height of the structure, which ranges from underground to a skyscraper. The six possible rating levels in this category are highlighted below. Rating level zero indicates that the entire structure was built "underground," and little or no damage would result from an above ground terrorist attack to the site. Assessment level one recognizes that the structure is only a "single story." Rating level two means the structure is a "low rise" one, or a building that is less than five stories in height. Assessment ranking three represents a "mid rise" structure, or one that is from five to 11 stories in height.
The last two assessment rating categories, four and five, are for buildings that fall into the high rise and skyscraper categories. The level four ranking level designates a "high rise" structure, for a building that ranges from 12 to 29 stories in height. Lastly, vulnerability assessment ranking level five acknowledges that the verticality of the structure falls into the highest level, or "skyscraper," category. This means the building structure is taller than 30 stories. Since skyscrapers in America's cities are few and far between, not many buildings would fall into this "highest" category.
Type of Building Construction
This category of assessment recognizes the composition of a building's construction. The six possible options, or "toughness" of construction ratings, include the following ranking levels. Assessment rating level zero acknowledges that the structure was completely built "underground," which has the lowest vulnerability level from an attack perspective. Rating level one represents a "hardened" structure, or one that is protected by earth berms and embankments. Assessing ranking level two means that the building is constructed with "reinforced concrete," or has steel beams within its structure.
The next three assessment levels in this category include buildings constructed with steel beams, masonry, steel studs, and wood. These ranking options include level three for buildings constructed with "structural steel or masonry," assessment level four represents "light" frame" structures, which typically contain steel studs, and vulnerability ranking level five which means that the building is a "wood structure," the most vulnerable type of structure from a terrorist standpoint.
Population Capacity of the Site
This assessment-ranking category relates to the maximum number of individuals at the site or building at any given point in time. The six possible assessment rating level responses range as follows: rating level zero indicates that no population whatsoever is located at the site.
Level one means that from 1-250 people are located at the site. Rating level two represents 251-5,000 people; rating three represents 5,001-15,000 people; rating level four represents 15,001-50,0000 people; and rating level five represents more than 50,000 people are present at the site at any given time.
Potential for Collateral Mass Casualties
This vulnerability assessment category includes a review of the maximum number of people within a one-mile radius of the site, which reflects the potential for collateral mass casualties should a major terrorist attack take place.
The six possible assessment ranking responses in this potential collateral damage category include the following: rating level zero stands for 0-100 people, rating level one means 101-500 people, rating level two includes 501-1,000 people, rating level three represents 1,001-2,000 people, rating level four reflects 2,001-5,000 people, and lastly, a response in rating level five represents that 5,000 or more people could be killed by a successful terrorist attack to the site.
The following figure sets forth the above vulnerability assessment criteria, and the ranking levels for each category, in a more abbreviated format.

4 = 2,001 to 5,000 people
5 = 5,000 plus people
Site Vulnerability Rating
The total number of points from the above nine ranking categories should be between one and 45. The total points for this assessment are broken down into four possible categories of vulnerability, or risk, levels as follows: negligible, low, medium, high, and critical. These four categories of vulnerability rankings resulting from this numerical assessment rating process are shown below:
u Negligible Vulnerability – Total ranking score of zero to nine points.
u Low Vulnerability – Total ranking score of 10-18 points.
u Medium Vulnerability – Total ranking score of 19-27 points.
u High Vulnerability – Total ranking score of 28-36 points.
u Critical Vulnerability – Total ranking score of 37-45 points.
Note: If your site's total points are at the highest end of a lower category, it is prudent to prepare your facility for the next highest level of vulnerability.
Based upon this site's, or facility's, vulnerability assessment ranking, the owners or managers of the site or building may wish to take a number of common-sense remediation measures to offset the potential vulnerability of their facility to a possible terrorist attack. These measures include, but are certainly not limited to, providing perimeter fencing, installing parking security safeguards for both employees and delivery persons, purchasing on-site surveillance cameras, using landscaping and vertical impediments to preclude vehicles from getting to close to the site, obtaining some type of employee identification recognition process, as well as using security guards to protect the facility against possible purposeful human wrongdoing.

I first learned of THE MIRACLE of OZONE in 2009 at a conference here in
Arizona that was held at the offices of Dr Ed Kondrot MD MD(H)under the
tutelage of famed Medical Ozone expert Dr Robert Rowen MD MD(H) who was brought
to Phoenix to teach a group of about 20 Homeopathic MD(H) physicians including myself and my HMA Cathy Stotesberry
We learned that Ozone use dovetails with Ultra Violet Blood
Irradiation(UBI) a unique technique that I learned in Germany in 1998
when I worked for HEEL and was visiting the annual Medical Week
conference in Baden Baden Germany which is the International
headquarters of that famed company
Combining Ozone and UBI magnifies the OXYGEN UTILIZATION efficiency of
the body that each procedure would do individually but which the
combination does exponentially when done together.
Oxygen Utilization is the key to life on a planet whose Oxygen levels
are declining and whose consequences are shortening of life and ill
health of every description
Every single part of the body works better and illness heals faster when Oxygen Utilization is optimized
The cardiovascular system heals, Urinary systems heal, joints heal from every form of wear and tear and Immune problems heal much faster.
There are other ways to improve Oxygen Utilization mainly through
Homeopathic remedies so that the combination of Homeopathy and
Ozone/UBI techniques are the literal best combination of things to do in
a perfect program of healthcare
I next learned about miracles of ozone at annual conferences sponsored
by the American Academy of Ozonetherapy under the tutelage of the
Academies founder Dr Frank Shallenberger MD who was just honored by AHIMA
with its annual lifetime achievement award named for Dr Gladys T McGarey MD MD(H)
after Dr Shallenberger gave a two day seminar summarizing all of the
science behind Ozone therapy and the many ways it can be used in human
I intend to sit for the academies Fellowship exam and than become an
authorized Ozone researcher at our offices of Valley Integrative
I than personally intend to take twice weekly MAHT ozone treatments to
improve my own cardiovascular system so that I can restart a valid
exercise program and get my own weight down to more comfortable and
healthier levels
It's going to be my New Years resolution for 2014 to make the above a
reality as I literally am an expert in homeopathy and understand what's
needed to make the above happen and with the guidance of my personal
physicians will work to make this happen
Those regular readers of this blog know that we've recently witnessed a miracle with Prayer and the ongoing healing of Dr Mike
Many of those prayers have also been directed towards myself and I've
become motivated to both learn about Ozone and than to use its MIRACLE
for myself as I've described above
I've also decided to create a series of specials to introduce my
practice family to the MIRACLE of OZONE and encourage you to watch these
blogs for the ways we will do this

Klobuchar, Franken form search committee for next Minn. US Attorney
by Curtis Gilbert, Minnesota Public Radio,Sasha Aslanian, Minnesota Public Radio
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota's two U.S. senators have formed a committee to search for the state's next U.S. Attorney.
B. Todd Jones, who has served as Minnesota's top federal prosecutor since 2009, has a Senate confirmation hearing next week to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. He's been serving as acting director for that agency since 2011, in addition to serving as U.S. Attorney.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar said the committee includes a former U.S. Attorney, a police chief, and a county attorney, and will be chaired by a former head of the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.
"We have a rich tradition of strong U.S. Attorneys in Minnesota," Klobuchar said. "We have a great committee we've put together that are going to work together to make a recommendation to Senator Franken and myself so we can recommend someone to the president."
Klobuchar said she expects the committee to complete its work in about a month.

I'm looking into booking a short trip to Italy during Thanksgiving. A friend of mine will be just finishing a semester in South France and I plan to meet up with her in Italy for a few days of sightseeing. We haven't decided on anything for sure yet, but we're leaning towards Florence or Venice. I know Venice is easy to see in a short period, and it also has the most convenient departure flight from the States for me. But we'd also love the art of Florence (and maybe a quick trip to the Tuscan countryside). We'll be two women in our twenties traveling alone until we meet up and really just need some guidance on the best place to go for now. (I definitely plan on going back for a more extended stay in the future.)
What's your advice on the best place to go (feel free to throw in other cities too) for a Wednesday-Sunday trip? We're very spontaneous, fun loving people who want to make the most out of life on a little whirlwind trip! Heavy planning ahead and detailed itineraries are not our thing, but I do want to make sure we get off to a good start
Italy in November

If you are visiting Italy you should never look over Rome. It is a great historically beautiful place to visit. Venice is also a great place to visit and yes, easy travel too. But if you can't manage, don't go for Florence.
Report Abuse
A Wednesday to Sunday trip to Venice and Florence is a great idea. You won't be able to see everything. Both cities are overflowing with treasures and atmospheric places to stroll. In November, you won't experience the hordes of tourists that spoil the experience for many people.
In November, the lower lying areas of Venice can be subject to morning tidal flooding, so you should pick a place to stay that is closer to the train station than to San Marco. You don't need to stay right on top of the train station, which is not the sweetest part of Venice. Just draw a mental line through the middle of Venice, and stay in the half that has the train station in it, not San Marco.
I think Venice and Florence are ideal picks for November, because it often rains everywhere in Italy in November, there is plenty to see and do indoors if it does rain, and the sights are extremely close together, so they are easy to duck into on short notice. Sightseeing in Rome for most people involves being outdoors a great deal of the time.
You do need to make reservations for some of the most popular art galleries and palaces, even in November. I honestly don't think you'll have time to visit the scenic Tuscan countryside unless you hire an expensive driver to take you for half a day. Many people find that the 10 minute bus ride from the middle of Florence up into the hills at Fiesole is a nice way to walk among olive groves and history, with a beautiful view of the "skyline" of Florence below.
Have a great trip. -

The Tuscan countryside is not particularly scenic after the harvest.
We have been to Venice in November a couple of times, and we were lucky enough to avoid the acqua alta. But one visit was very, very foggy. How foggy? Foggy enough that we didn't see the Italian naval ship anchored off San Marco until the last day. But it was a wonderful time to stroll the city because everything was mysterious and even eerier than usual. I can still see the piazza outside La Fenice, completely empty except for wisps of mist.
Florence would be great at that time as well, though I have only been at other times of year. -
Report Abuse
WIth the time you have available and if you have never been, I would choose Florence. It would be easy to visit in 4-5 days. Next suggestion would be Rome.
Report Abuse
Thanks for the advice! We probably don't want to try to do Rome so quickly, I know its big and don't want to be rushed trying to do everything there is to do.
That is good to know about the Tuscan countryside after the harvest, I didn't really think about that. Maybe Florence would be better in the spring/summertime?
I like the idea of a foggy, eerie Venice...it sounds different and unique! At first hearing about the acqua alta I got a little nervous but after researching it doesn't seem like that big of a deal.
Wherever we go, my main concern I guess is just our time contraints. After you take out travel time, we really only have 3 days, and I want to make sure we really get to see a good bit of whichever city we choose.

"This is a story about Stranger Danger. I'm sure you know all about that, but there is a lot more strangeness out there than you might think, and it happened to me."
When a stranger comes to Maddie's school to talk to her class about 'stranger danger', Maddie causes a bit of a stir!
Product reviews...
This is a wonderful book. I would class it as an introduction into novels for children as it has it's own little chapters.
This book can either be read to a small child 4 to 7yrs or read all on the child's own from 7+ i feel. The story itself is a great topic that children need to have an understanding of. Stranger Danger. However this story is told in a light hearted way as it isn't intending to scare young children.
There are still plenty of pictures in this book so i found it was a great way to transition children from picture books to the next level up.
There are plenty of funny moments in this story, and moments that could scare little children if they scare easily, so i would recommend reading this book first to see if your young child would cope.
It is awesome that it is a Kiwi Product! We all love to see fellow Kiwis doing well.

Well then, that is good news. I do like the idea of having limited time events that make uncommon crafting materials a bit more common. I noticed the same thing with the passiflora flowers in the notes.
Also, if the boxes drop frequently enough, then that is also very good. Not for nothing, but when they say rare drops, I kinda thought they would be rare, like the frequency of rare gear drops.
Well, I take back everything I said. If the RNG isn't atrociously pushing people to go to the gemstore and the gemstore is merely a convenience for people unwilling to do the content, then that is a good step in the right direction.
I may have to log back in and check it out.

zwei2stein, on 26 April 2013 - 11:25 AM, said:
Instead of designing asian-like culture, they simply copy-pasted cool-looking and sounding stuff together without really undesrtanding what they operate with.
Imagine if some asian company decided to make game in WW2-like universe, but they got it wrong and:
* Gave ss-like officers davids star insignia and polish names
* Made scenes which remind people of firebombing dresden, but with USA-alikes being bombers and Brittish-alikes being bombed.
* Made russian-like emblem pentagram instead of red star and made them heroes of the game, freeing world from usa/germany/poland axis of evil.
* Portrayed gulags as ran by allies and concentration camps as just tent camps of war refugees and outpost in game.
All that with names nearly directly from history books. Dechau Gulag ran by execution-thirsty General Patten for example.
That sure would have been big seller in west, right.
Yeah, you get where this is coming from. For instance, if Factions were made today, NC Soft would definitely chafe at the presence of samurai-like characters like Shiro. Why? Samurai are used as imagery of horrible brutality and oppression in countries outside of Japan, particularly Korea.
And yeah, the nazi analogy actually works -- Korea suffered some horrible stuff at the hands of Japan, especially in World War 2. History that most of us haven't even read about and I couldn't even write here without my post being automatically flagged. That's why it's actually exceedingly rare for samurai to be present in RPGs that Japan exports that don't explicitly take place in Japan. The swords might be there, but pretty much everyone agrees those can still be awesome sometimes.
I'm actually absolutely sure NC Soft will let ArenaNet do Cantha things in the future if they promise to do more research than they did when Factions was released.
For comparison's sake, I actually thought it was extremely tasteless that Nightfall had a slavery-themed subplot with the centaurs. If I were one of the writers, I wouldn't have put a slavery subplot within a lightyear of an African-themed game. That's a bottomless can of worms that opens up into an endless series of cans.
But yeah: I'm not asking ANet to never do Asian stuff. I'm asking them to not be lazy or careless. And lots of "cultural" things about GW1 would be considered both by today's standards, where research is easier than it's ever been in human history. And contrary to the people arguing otherwise, it's not a double standard -- there's plenty of ways to portray medieval European stuff as offensive. It's just that most of us who grew up in western culture already intrinsically and unconsciously avoid those pitfalls. We don't even notice ourselves doing it, it's that deeply conditioned.
A good example is the topic of christian exceptionalism in western society. I know some of you might be already cringing, and some moderators reading this might already be snapping to attention ready at any moment to jump into the topic to say "don't go there, back on topic please". Which is exactly my point -- we just know to avoid it. Someone making a game overseas might not, and I suspect it's why certain games like the original Final Fantasy Tactics or Xenogears had all the tact of a drunken hippo.
EDIT: Oh, as a more modern example, Operation Darkness already almost fits zwei2stein's analogy .

Funny. I rather think commandigon shockaxe, escape DB spam, and spirits + soul reaping + healing would be big balance issues. Actually thanks to dual classing many of them were, but it would be even worse when you get the runes going and more freedom with secondary choice.
Basically as you keep adding truly new functionality to existing classes, you will wipe out their distinguishing weaknesses, barring some specific countermeasure designs that GW2 currently lacks; or you water down the new functionality so much that it has minimal impact. That doesn't automatically rule it out, but it is a significant limit on how far you can take things.
Given GW2's lack of secondaries you also have to significantly bloat options within a class rather than simplifying for the end user by cordoning them off in a separate class, and you also greatly increase the number of intra-character combinations to worry about. And really GW2's total number of skills is not small compared to say prophecies. It's the limitations on how they can be combined (no secondaries, chunked into weapons, synergy minimized, etc.) that have kept the balance more controlled. And nothing is more controlled than grouping new skills into a totally new class that can't combine with the others.
#2181649 Should more professions be added in the future?
Posted Captain Bulldozer on 20 March 2013 - 06:01 PM
Since GW2 system is so simplistic, I tend to think new professions wouldn't be very problematic to balance... other than a few class specific issues, many of the current professions already feel basically the same. I personally find that kind of boring... but then I've never been one of those people who thinks things are always best when well balanced. If GW2 had been a game designed so that what you do is more situational than what it is now, lack of balance wouldn't be a big deal in many ways. As it is, when fighting mobs in PvE you can pretty much do the same thing in every fight and be successful, and a lot of PvP seems to work that way too... it makes it more boring, but easier (and more important) to balance.

November 29, 2010 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- Two Chicago area brothers were sentenced to probation for damaging an Olympic banner last year at Daley Plaza.
The banner was hung just days before Olympic officials announced which city would host the 2016 summer games. Chicago was one of four finalists.
Police said Jason and Jeremy Hammond were part of a group that tried to burn the banner.
They were convicted last month of mob action. Jason must serve one year's probation. Jeremy received 18 months probation and he must perform community service.

Fungus the Bogeyman poster on the kids wall was a nice touch. -
I enjoyed it an felt a bit emotional to be honest but that came during the start. It reminded me of being a kid in the 70s I think, I've still got my Raymond Briggs books with my name written in the front saying Christmas 1975 (Father Christmas goes on Holiday) - Just brought back so many memories.

I am writing a Windows forms application to go between our other systems and our new software package that we are still setting up. I am doing an iterative development method because I am creating the tools as we find that we need them. My problem now is that when I publish a new change, we have to go to the workstations, log in as admin, and install this app. Being the process as it is, this just isn't feasible.
What other options do I for releasing this to the users? And how would I go about doing it?
I am using VS2008 and .NET 3.5

Senators: Federal 9/11 health program adds cancer
50 types of cancer to be included
NEW YORK (AP) - Two New York senators say the federal government will include about 50 types of cancer on the list of World Trade Center-related illnesses that will be covered by a Sept. 11 health program.
Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand and Charles Schumer issued a statement on the change Monday.
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health said last June that it favored expanding the $4.3 billion health program to include cancer.
Questions about whether the dust caused cancer was one of the reasons why Congress did not include it in the initial list of covered illnesses.
But an advisory panel said it was plausible that first responders and others who were exposed to the toxic dust might get cancer.
