Madden NFL 25 – official PS4 and Xbox One video released
Madden 25 has a new video available showing the next-gen version of the football title. EA Sports is on a roll today. It discusses the improved Player Sense and how linemen in the game make more decisions. Hopefully good ones or it's to the bench they go – or worse – get traded to the Buccaneers. I jest. Have a watch below. Madden NFL 25 launches alongside the new consoles in November. Thanks, Shack.

Madden NFL 10 demoed for iPhone at Apple event [Update]
Update: Madden NFL 10 will launch on the App Store today for $9.99, and if you act now for today only it's $7.99. Currently, DLC in the form of jerseys and roster updates is expected in the future as well as multiplayer.
Original Story: During Apple's "Its only rock and roll, but we like it" event, which is ongoing, EA demoed Madden NFL 10 for iPhone.
Expected to be released sometime this month, the game has all 32 teams, all locations and the playbook from the full version for consoles and PC.
The iPhone version includes "Action Control Time," which lets you adjust the speed of your game, "Season Mode," which lets you play through an entire season of football with trades and acquisitions, stats and individual player rewards, full control over rosters, depth charts, and access to free agent pools, and broadcast commentary featuring the voices of John Madden, Tom Hammond and Cris Collinsworth.
Also included is the Hot Route feature, which lets you redraw the play from the playbook right on the screen with your finger.
No word just yet on when to expect it this month, or for how much, but we'll sent word to EA Sports to see what we can find out.

Moore: Posthumous Madden wouldn't be "weird"
John Madden's on borrowed time. His great, football-shaped clock is ticking unstoppably in heaven's endzone. Will EA's gargantuan sports IP continue with his name once the alarm's gone off? Probably.
"If you said to me that once I'm gone there's a video game that lives on with my name, there's certainly achievements with my name on already, so it might be a fitting legacy," EA Sports boss Peter Moore told Gama.
"I don't think anymore that people would think it would be weird if when ultimately he's no longer with us that the game carries on. Madden 40 or Madden 50 or whatever that would be. I don't think so."
Madden's retired now, a fact Moore insists will make the game "better". Only time will tell. Tick. Tock.

A huge, in-depth survey into teenager's gaming habits and the relationship to civic engagement has shown that the five most popular games played in the US are Guitar Hero, Halo 3, Madden NFL, Solitaire, and Dance Dance Revolution.

Through this link are more stats about US teenage gaming habits than you could shake a stick at. Get the coffee ready and dive in.

Madden retires from broadcasting, will not affect Madden NFL franchise
John Madden has announced his retirement from broadcasting televised NFL games, but his departure will not effect the Madden NFL game franchise.
His reasoning is that he is 73 and wants to spend more time with his family.
Fair enough.
While this is not exactly gaming news, Madden has been a staple figure in videogames for years.
EA Sports rep David Tinson told Gamasutra that due to a "long term contract with John Madden" the gaming franchise is safe.
Peter Moore also weighed in on the anouncement stating:
"We're excited to see [Madden's] legacy live on in the 21st year of Madden NFL football, and well beyond.
"It's been a privilege for EA Sports to have had the strong relationship we've had with John for more than two decades and one that will continue into the future."
Via GamePolitics, Gamasutra.

Survey says: Playing Madden increases your NFL IQ
EA has announced the results of a survey conducted by University of Oregon's Warsaw Sports Marketing Center which show that Madden NFL players' football IQ was 60 percent higher than non-players.
The study tested the general American football knowledge of 15,000 Madden 09 players against your average non-Madden playing NFL fan. The results spoke for themselves.
"For 20 years, EA Sports has been committed to delivering a truly authentic football experience with the Madden NFL franchise," said EA Sports president Peter Moore.
"The findings of the Football IQ study demonstrate the authenticity of the game and how much smarter gamers have become about the sport because of it. It also represents the impact this iconic game has had on the way football is played and experienced, both by players and fans."
Madden NFL sold 5.25m copies in the US last year putting the American Football title in second place being Wii Play in the all format charts.
Full thing after the break.

February 5 – Happy Birthday Roger Peckinpaugh
He was the first starting shortstop in New York Yankee team history. Peckinpaugh won the job in 1913, the same year the New York Highlanders officially became the New York Yankees. He kept that position for the next eight seasons, long enough to become the first Yankee starting shortstop to play in the old Yankee Stadium and also to play for New York in a World Series. He was a brilliant fielder and an excellent base runner. His lifetime totals in Pinstripes included 1,170 hits, over 1,200 games played, a .257 batting average and 143 stolen bases. In December of 1921, Roger was part a seven player swap with the Red Sox that included Boston's starting shortstop, Everett Scott. By 1925, Peckinpaugh had been traded to Washington, where he hit .294 and was named AL MVP for leading the Senators to the World Series. But in that year's Fall Classic against the Pirates, Peckinpaugh committed the unbelievable total of eight errors, which remains a Series record, today. He ended his playing career in 1927 and began his managing career the following season as skipper of the Indians. He managed for seven seasons and then took a job in Cleveland's front office. Roger died in 1977, at the age of 86.
Since today's post is about the first great shortstop in pinstripe history, let's take a look at my list of the five greatest Yankee shortstops ever:
Number 1 – Derek Jeter: Five rings, eight pennants, seventeen postseasons, 3,000 hits. Simply the best.
Number 2 – Phil Rizzuto: Ted Williams described Scooter as one of the greatest players of his era. Nine pennants, seven rings, an MVP and Hall-of-Famer.
Number 3 – Frankie Crosetti: The starting shortstop on 6 World Championship teams. A total of nine pennants and eight rings as a player. Reached 1,500 hits and 1,000 runs during his career.
Number 4 – Peckinpaugh
Number 5 – Tony Kubek: His three rings, seven pennants and 1,109 hits during a brief nine-year career easily beats out Bucky Dent for the final spot.

This policy was adopted by the Board of Trustees, November 25, 1968, to establish consistent procedures for honorary degrees.
The University grants honorary degrees to signalize respect for individuals who have made outstanding contributions to mankind or who exemplify ideals and purposes for which the University stands. The following guidelines have been followed in making selections:
1. In selecting candidates for honorary degrees at Commencement, the Board of Trustees seeks to present a balanced group that demonstrates the breadth of the University's interests and concerns. At the same time, the number of candidates selected is kept relatively small (between six and eight in recent years) in order not to dilute the significance of the degree or to prolong the Commencement ceremonies.
2. One criterion for awarding honorary degrees is to signalize areas of unusual distinction within New York University.
3. The University has a deliberate policy of honoring alumni who have achieved outstanding positions and have made unusual contributions to their professions. There is an equal policy against awarding an honorary degree to any Trustee, administrative officer, or faculty member engaged in regular full-time service in the University.
4. The University prefers to award honorary degrees to those who have not already received a host of degrees from other institutions but are on the threshold of general recognition. In certain instances, however, such as those involving national leaders of great distinction,
the fact that an individual has received a number of degrees from other institutions is not a deterrent to his or her being awarded a degree by New York University.
5. Recommendations for honorary degrees are received from Trustees, faculty, staff members, and other friends of the University. They are filed on a standard form, the contents of which are summarized by the Secretary of the University for consideration by the Board of Trustees.
6. The degrees granted at Commencement are planned months in advance and involve the concurrence of the entire Board of Trustees. The University considers it appropriate also to grant degrees on particular occasions during the year for the purpose of celebrating an event within the University or for honoring a particularly distinguished visitor to the University. These degrees need be approved only by the designated committee of the Board of Trustees.
7. An informal procedure for consultation with appropriate deans and senior faculty members, through the offices of the President and the Secretary, has been regularly followed in the past, particularly when it is desired through an honorary degree to recognize outstanding achievement in a particular area of academic activity. This procedure is to be continued with respect to honorary degrees awarded at times other than at Commencement.

Teachers get an 'A' for savings
New research by the Co-operative Bank shows that teachers save the most out of 25 professions.
Those working in education save on average £2,125 each year, higher than those working in finance (£1,999) and over four times the amount saved by those in artistic and sport related jobs (£494).
Those working in agriculture and utilities save the least with those working in agriculture putting away just £343 on average each year. Us media types typically save £968 a year.
Whatever amount you can afford to save each month or year, it's important to put it in the best paying account for your needs. To help you decide we've checked out the top paying regular savers, instant access accounts and fixed rate bonds.
Regular savers
If you are just beginning to save, regular savings accounts are a good option as they often pay a high rate compared to other savings accounts.
However, you will have to commit to a fixed monthly contribution between a minimum and maximum amount (typically £25 to £500), usually for 12 months.
The rate on the account normally falls after a year – but that's a good time to move your nest egg into an Isa or bond.
The best-paying regular saver available to anyone is currently Cheshire's Platinum Monthly Saver Issue 3 which pays 5%. Account holders can save between £100 and £500 a month.
First Direct current account customers can open a regular saver which pays a whopping 8%. Monthly contributions are capped at £300 but that still means that if you saved the maximum you can earn £156 gross interest a year.
Instant access
As the name suggests, instant or easy access accounts offer instant access to your money so they're good if you need cash for emergencies.
ING Direct is currently No.1 for instant access, paying 3.1%. However the rate comes with an introductory bonus of 2.56% for a year meaning that after 12 months the account will pay just 0.54% AER.
Meanwhile the Post Office and Principality building society both pay 3.01% and both including a 1.36% bonus for 12 months.
In some comparison tables, you'll see Coventry Building Society's Online Saver 2 account ahead of the ING Direct account. Coventry's account pays 3.15% including a 1.15% bonus,, but you can only make four penalty-free withdrawals each year, so it's not a true instant access account.
If you opt for an account with an introductory bonus you should make a note of when the bonus period ends and be ready to shop around for a better account when the time comes – otherwise the rate will fall dramatically.
Fixed rate bonds
Fixed rate bonds are a good option if you don't mind tying up your savings for a fixed period of time. With a bond the interest rate is fixed for a set period of time – anything from six months to five years.
However you won't be able to access your money penalty-free during this period so you should only save in a bond if you have other, more accessible cash elsewhere.
In general the longer you fix for, the better the interest rate. At the moment you can fix for one year with Aldermore at 3.55%, for two years with BM Savings at 3.9%, for three years with BLME in a Sharia'a compliant account at 4% and for five years with AA at 4.6%.
Cash Isas
Cash Isas are a good home for your money as the interest is paid tax-free. Every adult in the UK can save up to £5,640 this year in a cash Isa and up to £11,280 split between a stocks and shares Isa and a cash Isa (with a maximum of £5,640 in a cash Isa).
Like other savings accounts, cash Isas can be instant access or fixed rate bonds. Halifax is currently offering a five-year fixed rate Isa at 4.5% and four years at 4.35%. Santander has a one-year fixed rate Isa at 3.5% while Saga offers one-year fixed at 3.6% to over-50s only.
Cheshire Building Society's Direct Cash ISA (Issue 2) is the top-paying instant access Cash ISA with a cracking 3.5% rate. This includes a 2.5% bonus which will be withdrawn in October 2013.

Republicans have a secret weapon: Democrats
Feb 18, 2013

So -- America marches into the abyss it voted for talk turns to the Republican party's future if there is one.
It's gotten to the point -- we talk about the party's fate it's like discussing the future of your senile and it you do it right in front ever.
Here's Rand Paul you know I wonder if he would absolutely not run -- -- it -- to win.
And I would absolutely not run unless it were to win you know points have been made and we'll continue to make points -- I think the country really is ready for the narrative coming and libertarian Republican narrative also because we've been losing as a national party.
And there's car -- -- -- he thinks Rand Paul had it right in that everybody has got a chance.
I think Rand Paul had a right everybody's had a chance we believe -- markets let people -- and participate we should it's just the opposite of -- bureau.
The more people who participate the better off where the more we examine the quality of these candidates.
From top to bottom the more likely wind up with fewer Christine O'Donnell's and more Rand Paul -- Sexy man.
Finally doctor Ben Carson I bet he'd like to see more often in this nation -- open an intelligent conversation not just people casting aspersions at each other.
I would like to see more often -- this nation has an open.
And intelligent.
Not people just casting aspersions in each I mean it's unbelievable to me the way people.
Act like third -- and Carson for pres that you're retiring as a surgeon this summer.
What do you make committee to get in the -- If it's not my intention to do that.
But as I always say and every part of my life I don't live in an -- Look here's what's needed in a nominee someone you don't have to explain.
Someone who doesn't need me or you to defend his clumsily clumsy reports I don't wanna which.
Feel free to cast aspersions but not spills.
But I also want a fighter a person who wants to win and won't roll over and a debate on been Goji -- as a consultant told to.
I want someone who cheerfully destroys the liberal -- that achievement itself -- net earning your keep means others will -- And this person must realize he's fighting two fronts the Democrats and the media and the only to beat Dan -- shine a light on them with humor.
Set a paraphrase Mark Twain rumors of the Republican party's death have been greatly exaggerated.
Because the Republicans have once secret weapon.
The Democrats well we may have a different Republican savior every week there is one -- that we -- -- count on the inherent bankruptcy of liberal ideas.
-- and also that Joseph Biden will say something really stupid he's the best thing happened Republican since Dana Perino.
I think that -- -- compliment it was it could be taken both ways okay.
Much like a lot of things from Andrea it is America ready for libertarian president -- you really just saying a small government person with less military.
That's a very good question -- libertarians had a lot of luck in the 1990s.
And since then not so much and I think.
They often are considered too controversial because of their positions on legalizing pot which now has become a bit more mainstream.
And legalizing prostitution which a lot of conservatives of course.
I can't wrap their arms around.
But I do think that Rand Paul is a little bit different I'll I like -- a lot.
I think that.
He speaks the truth he's very very tough he doesn't go back and forth he's not his father.
And I do I would say that the question is -- do we want to become a big tent.
Are we really that big -- because a lot of people will say.
You know what I'd love to vote Republican but I can't because of the social issues.
And if we had somebody who maybe was more liberal we could get more voters open up that Big Ten.
Because every election Democrats use social issues.
Around our next contract that America was great because it didn't get into social issues and it was something we can all agree on but.
They always use a social issues like they do with -- -- so maybe somebody who doesn't.
Given that opportunity that would be it.
A chance will get by the right -- also -- -- -- a perm.
The -- I can't tell it's a natural hair -- or -- but that's for the debate later I think that's a good.
The first thing David Gregory nice air Beckel I want to ask you this we already have a professional grad student and pain in the office and we had six dollar.
A gallon gas why not have a libertarian that can't be any worse.
Well Gutfeld.
Hundreds you.
First of logic shouldn't -- that sent a libertarian Republican.
Yeah libertarians are on the ballot every four years -- -- five fort for a long time now he's -- run for the Republican presidential nomination that's was gonna go for.
But the idea that Rand Paul and the good doctor.
In the Republican Party now casting around for these various people.
Tells me that the bench for the Republicans which we kept talking about was -- mighty strong.
Is not really sure economy rubio has already gotten -- -- what it's like step into the -- this -- it has been very pleasant and you can take it.
But nothing what I worked out -- -- -- Geist so 200000 dollars a bottled water.
I should be so lucky Erika -- -- And -- did not act so here's what I -- governor -- The problem with me -- libertarians is that that the whole thing about its.
Smaller military it was true libertarians -- just protect their borders don't have any foreign policy at all I think that's going to be tough to win any time soon.
What's -- kind of evolving -- something you know cut back and listen to what what's important.
Making the bigger -- making sure you with a Republican Party says you know more people come -- -- -- -- from prosecution nautical it'll come up for Chris Christie.
I'm back and Chris Christie again it's it it seems to me like we really need so -- Personnel are we sitting at some could go yeah that's somewhat likable and gotten up and say I'd like but this yeah speaks his mind says what is any you know -- To bring about some of these issues that may be problem -- Two to.
Both Carson and may Graham Paul I think he's I think he'd be stronger candidate rubio certainly general election candidate -- -- dean and yet before we tease to have anything game.
Intelligent to -- I think I just add this that a lot of people are.
Rejecting kind of -- Republican that and they don't like the -- -- the Democrat they don't take conservative or liberal.
And there are some very appealing characteristics of a libertarian that speak to people how they're feeling right now and so I think if I take another look at it that the reason he says.
Libertarian minded Republican is sort of like an ala carte menu and I got one a little of this and a little of that and -- -- -- Who comes up with -- we've -- one surprise look at this week awkwardly electric you -- -- I should that was -- a lot while I was gone so that's coming -- --

Week 12 |
Congrats to X AGENT (Shari Christenson) who was a touchdown and a 2 point conversion away from a perfect week. Also to the 12-2 club of BOCA BOB (Green), GLENN P (Price), WATER WORKS (Bonnie Pringle) and DREAM TEAM KC (Chris Lash).
Most pickers this week have sided with the favored picks.
But it seems that some want the Lions to stop the big cheese run to perfection, the Dolphins to keep swimming up the standings, and the Ravens to stop the gold rush in California.
Plus, the Bucs to remember how last year felt, the Cardinals to keep the Rams down, and the tricky Tebow to be well … Tebow again, for another week in San Diego. One more note will be how de Bears handle the Raiders without Jay at QB.
Have a great holiday weekend, pickers.

Back in 2009, Hyeji Do left her home and family in Seoul, South Korea, to study at Northwest Missouri State University.
Now Do, who will graduate Saturday, says she is thankful her sister Hyemin, who attended Northwest in 2008, suggested that she travel thousands of miles across the world's biggest ocean to continue her education in a small Midwestern town named Maryville.
"Because (being able to speak) English is so important in Korea, she suggested to me, 'Why don't you come here and study?'" Do said. "She said I would be able to learn English better than at other universities, and she also said it was a quiet and safe environment."
Though Do's undergraduate career is coming to an end, her family's connection with Northwest is not. Her brother Changhwan enrolled as a Bearcat last fall and is currently a freshman majoring in management information systems.
Like many students — including those who live a lot closer to home — Do said she has missed her family and native country while away at school. But she believes her marketing degree and polished English skills were well worth the effort.
And besides, Maryville has become something of a second home.
"I started out staying at my apartment and going to class and then going back to my apartment — no other activities or trying to make American friends," Do said.
Then, while working on an oral communication homework assignment, she interviewed Jeff Foot, Northwest's director of international affairs. Foot, a native of Canada who started out as an international student himself, gave her some advice.
"If you want to make your study-abroad experience better" he said, "you need to try something different."
And so she did, joining a handful of other South Korean students as a founding member of the Korean Student Association. Do also volunteered at the University's Intercultural International Center, where she was soon put on the payroll as a desk attendant.
During off hours, she started helping other Asian students become acclimated to Northwest and adjust to their new lives in the United States.
Do said one of the reasons she chose Northwest was its distance from a large Korean-speaking community. Separated from the culture she was raised in, she said she was able to absorb American culture more completely.
"Americans are so independent," she said. "I used to care about what others thought about me too much. I used to do what people would think is good or what my parents would want.
"However, through the years in the United States, I realized that what I had been doing was wrong. I realized none of my American friends do that. They follow what they want and do what they want to do."

KIRKSVILLE, MO -- Some Heartland residents are starting off the new year on the right track to finishing up their education.
The Kirksville Area Technical Center held a GED orientation Monday afternoon.
Potential students were taking their entrance exams to help determine what level they should be placed in the GED Program.
Educators say that they are noticing bigger turnouts of young adults who realize that going back and finishing up their high school education is important to them to give them and their families a better life.
"It's very hard to have some kind of credential behind your name. A lot of them have realized once they gotten out into the working world that they need something in order to have then things that they want in life. So we are trying to get them in contact with many resources as possible that's going to get them what they need in life," said Adult Education/GED Program Director Tom DeBlauw.
The center says people can get their GEDs in a matter of a few weeks to at most a year.
The center will have another GED orientation in February.

132 Volkswagen's For Sale
About Volkswagen
"Das Auto", says Volkswagen's latest marketing tag line, conveying in two words the message the company wants to send out to the rest of the world- that when it comes to automobiles, Volkswagen is the ultimate, The Car. The name Volkswagen itself means 'People's Car'- a label that many manufacturers have aspired to be identified with, but few have achieved with the degree of success that Volkswagen has.
Volkswagen is undoubtedly one of the most recognised car manufacturers in the world, with its strong presence in all parts of the globe. Volkswagen has assembly plants in countries like Germany, China, India, Russia, Brazil, Argentina, Portugal, Spain, Poland, Mexico, Bosnia and Herzegovina, South Africa and the United States.
The original and biggest selling Volkswagen brand has acquired the marquee of the Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, SEAT and Škoda. Besides, it also owns the truck manufacturer Scania.
Founded by the Nazi trade union in 1937, the Volkswagen Group wanted to reach out to the new potential market of the masses rather than cater to those looking for luxury models. Since the average German could barely afford a motorcycle, let alone a luxury car, there was a distinct need for the People's Car and the genesis of the Volkswagen Program. This made it possible for average citizens to buy a car at the price of a motorcycle. This car came with a distinctive round shape and air-cooled, flat-four, rear-mounted engine- the inimitable Beetle.
As was the norm during those times, Volkswagen developed military vehicles during the War years. In 1945, its heavily-bombed factory was captured by the Americans and handed over to the British, who decided to take the VW Beetle to the UK. Following the war, a senior manager of Opel, Heinrich Nordhoff was appointed to run the factory in 1949. Soon enough, Volkswagen established its footprint in the US and boosted its sales in the country.
In 1973, the company recorded sales of nearly 16 million cars, a peak before sales dropped drastically and necessitated impressive new models. In response, the company produced Passat (a fastback version of Audi 80) in 1973, Scirocco and Golf in 1974 and Polo in 1975, a popular three-door hatchback.

On a short break from his duties in Washington D.C., Polis was making the rounds in Colorado's Second District to find out what's on his constituents' minds. The students gave him an earful.
After Representative Polis gave a brief biography of himself, touched on the basic structure of the U.S. government, and covered his job description and duties, he opened it up to questions from the students. The students asked question about some of the recent hot button issues like expanded background checks for gun sales, reduction of the national debt,

I thought this video was very funny and interesting. However, I could not think of a mathematical response for this, except that the division was done backwards. Some other numbers that work for this are:
4,15= 24
3,17= 24
I didn't really use a method to figure this out, I kind of just guessed and checked.

Mogobe, K.D.; Tshiamo, W.; Bowelo, M. (Reproductive Health Matters. www.rhmjournal.org.uk, NaN, 2007)[more][less]
Abstract: This paper describes the maternity monitoring system in Botswana, developed in 1998, and the main methods used: maternal death and morbidity reviews at service delivery level, analysis by the National Maternal Mortality Audit Committee of data from the reviews as reported on two forms, perinatal reviews and surveys using process indicators. We carried out a study of these findings to examine whether the system was working well. Surveys using process indicators in 2001 and 2006 were analysed. Other data examined were from 2004–2006 and early 2007. The Maternal Death Notification Form was found to be comprehensive but not all health facilities were submitting them and some gave incomplete information. In 2001, 70% of pregnant women attended antenatal care but access to emergency obstetric care was uneven. In 2006, 28 facilities with maternity services surveyed were providing 24-hour delivery care, but laboratory, theatre and blood supplies were more limited, and only 50% of doctors and 67% of midwives had life-saving skills. Antibiotics were widely available, but there were shortages of magnesium sulphate, diazepam, oxytocics and manual vacuum aspiration kits. Recommendations for improvements have been made, training for skilled attendants is ongoing and a medical school has just opened at the University of Botswana. A2007 Reproductive Health Matters.
