The Bleeding Hollow Deluxe Adventure
Total Party Kill Games
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/24/2013 11:16:24
This is a cinematic, epic adventure, chasing the party across a wide and scary landscape as they struggle to survive with body and mind intact let alone rescue anyone else - they scarcely have time to draw breath long enough to remember why they came to Westden, a once sleepy rural town.
Harking back to many tropes of 'old school' gaming this is quite a sandbox of an adventure, the character may go where they like, when they like and it doesn't matter... they will probably get attacked anyway! Whilst aimed at a 5th-level party, there is a refreshing approach in that some encounters will be overwhelming and there are times when the best tactic is to take to your heels and run until you feel your chest is bursting. Characters who survive will be seriously considering a nice quiet life in trade or craft, their players will remember and reminisce until they are too old to lift a d20 let alone roll it.
The adventure is outlined for the GM at the beginning, but most of the meat of what is going on is to be found in the events and locations throughout the book - this is one for which study beforehand is recommended, indeed vital, if the adventure is to be enjoyed to its full. An interesting and recurring theme is the constant moral dilemmas with which the characters will be faced. There are no easy answers, and every choice has its consequences.
Like the best of sandboxes, this adventure is filled with 'quests' which the characters may take on or ignore as they choose. (And yes, these choices have consequences!) To begin with, there are a clutch of quests aimed at different character classes or interests just to get them to Westden in the first place, which if carefully set up could have different members of the group trying to achieve different ends at the same time. Even if they have come for other reasons, however, they will soon be asked to help rid the township from a band of harpies who have been making quite a nuisance of themselves in the area.
The settlement of Westden has been set out in great detail, giving it an air of reality. Everywhere the party turns there are people to talk to, things to look at, things to find out. Each inhabitant is described in detail, down to his answers to likely questions, along with appearance, attitude.. even hobbies and interests. The place should really come to life as the characters visit. Indeed there are notes should you wish to use this settlement outside of this particular adventure, it is certainly well-designed enough to be worthy of consideration as a permanent location in your campaign world.
A note suggests that players keep track of what their characters eat and drink. As the adventure escalates it might become important - do you stop to forage, or do you tighten your belt and keep running? As a 'reward' for troubling to keep notes, a good meal can grant minor bonuses or buffs so eat well when you can!
And all this is just Chapter 1! It is followed by Chapter 2: Hunters and their Prey, which begins to touch on the wider picture: there is a lot more going on in the area than a bunch of pesky harpies! Travelling around to deal with this, the party will have to contend with adverse weather - 'inclement weather' seems to be about as good as it gets, sounds a bit like Cheshire UK in winter! - and wandering monsters as well as those going about their nefarious business. Given the bad weather, most of them are hungry and probably grumpy.
Chapter 3 takes the characters to a small hamlet called Bertram's End, home to a failed mining enterprise and quite a few ruined buildings. Naturally, all is not quite what it seems... but again everything and everyone here is presented in loving living detail, all ready to spring into life within your shared alternate reality. Chapter 4 leads the action on into the mine itself... if you dare plumb its depths!
Finally, Chapter 5 takes the party to the Bleeding Hollow. Here is to be found the centre, the nodal point, of all the troubles besetting this area. The backstory here presents a sad and haunting tale, study it and weave it into your presentation of what the players encounter here: the adventure will be all the more potent and poignant for it.
This is an adventure that should linger on in the memories of all those who participate in it, cinematic in scale, dramatic in scope, granting a freedom of action within a structured story in elegant style. Now to round up some players...

Of Diced Up Men
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/23/2013 11:45:49
If you enjoy 'film noir' or hard-boiled 1930s detective stories or Damon Runyon tales this simple and elegant - yet powerful - game may be right up your street.
Character generation is simple. Roll 2d6+3 to get a number of points which you can assign to core traits covering brawling, gunplay, fast talk, finding things, figuring stuff out and following people - each of these can range from 1 (hopeless) to 6 (acknowledge master of the art). A couple of advanced traits (used to influence game mechanics) and a few foibles for your character and you're just about done.
Now comes the clever bit. The game mechanics are based on the game of craps... popular as a gambling game at the time, and evocative of the period. It is explained clearly for those of you who don't play craps, along with the probabilities for those not mathematical enough to work them out. Roll a 7 or an 11 on two d6s, and you have succeeded at what you are trying to do. Roll 2, 3 or 12 and you have failed... anything else is a partial success or 'point.'
If you get a 'point' roll again - the aim is to get the same number as you did in the first roll before you roll a 7 (in which case you fail). You can use an appropriate trait value to add or subtract from the roll to get the result you want. The rest is up to player and GM to determine or describe. There are some clear examples to show you how this works - and a few ideas for the GM (called a Narrator) to use when characters fail - called 'crapping out' of course.
Characters can get hurt but they are almost immortal, no worrying about trivial details like how many hit points you have. This game is all about the story not the details and should be played as such. All the suggestions made in the Narrator's Bag of Tricks section are designed to enhance this, placing the characters and their story square in the centre of proceedings.
There is also a section on Building Stories which gives an impressive selection of characteristic film noir tropes that you can build into your story. There's also some suggestions for films to watch for inspiration and a substantial list of period slang. Me, I'm reaching for Damon Runyon stories and of course the Philip Marlowe stories of Raymond Chandler. My players watch films but rarely read books!

B17: Death & Taxes
Adventureaweek.com, LLP
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/22/2013 11:31:48
They say that only two things are certain in life: death and taxes. In this intriguing city-based adventure, the party are hired on as tax collectors in a township that is even more than most unwilling to pay their dues. There is a coherent backstory explaining what's been going on before they arrive and causing the three challenges they have to face: open revolt, taxpayers paying with counterfeit coin and town guardsmen turning up dead...
Various hooks are supplied to get things rolling... for hiring on as tax collectors is not the first thing most parties want to do. Still, a fat purse for the job may seal the deal even if the concept of civic responsibility is a bit foreign to them. Oh, a nice shiny badge of office (with certain interesting properties...) and free accommodation go along with the job as well.
Once settled in, amidst the usual inter-department rivalry with the town's Sheriff, events soon pile on thick and fast. There's plenty for the party to investigate and resolve, as well as the odd fight to be had. The backstory weaves through all events giving a coherent and exciting story of civic corruption and double-dealing as well as external plots to contend with. The action will take them all over town and even down into the sewers - even there, not all the rats have four legs!
And should they prove successful they will find themselves in a unique position: tax collectors who are popular with those from whom they collect tax!
Everything is laid out clearly, with details to hand just when you need them, and both Pathfinder RPG and Dungeons & Dragons 3e statblocks for everyone and thing the characters will meet and may have to fight. Oh, and there's an otyugh. Any adventure with an otyugh in it is fun!
So if you want an adventure that's a little bit different, try this one for size.

The Jester Dragon's Random Tavern Generator
Skirmisher Publishing
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/22/2013 10:53:43
A handy set of random tables that you can use whenever the party gets a thirst on, to enhance your alternate reality by giving them a proper drinking experience rather than a bland "You get some ales" and move on.
The first table is a combined one: roll percentage dice twice to determine a convincing name for a tavern whenever the party declares that they are looking for one. Some combinations will work better than others, but even if you are good at coming up with names on the fly this can be helpful especially if your characters are getting suspicious about finding a Sword and Board and The Broad Face (two tavern names I use quite often) in every settlement they visit!
Next is a table to determine the primary clientele, and this is followed by one with the intriguing title of 'Tavern is fresh out of...' You may prefer just to select whatever it is your adventurers (particularly the grumpy ones) like to order, else get your bones out and roll. The results offered are quite broad, so you may wish to use this table with caution - inns that are regularly out of essentials like ale do not keep their customers for long.
And so it goes on with further tables for Barkeep's Attitude, The Mysterious Person Drinking Alone in a Corner, The Facilities are a... (very useful for those who like an air of realism, if not a miasma in the privy - this has a subtable to determine how clean the rest facilities are), and for those who want more entertainment there are tables for games played in the establishment and that evening's live entertainment.
There's even a table for likely consequences for those who have a bit too much to drink; whilst you can also find out the name of the house drink, the atmosphere of the place, what accommodations are available and even which section of the community is not welcome at the tavern.
Overall very handy, generating enough for you to create a realistic establishment literally as the characters ride into town declaring that they need a drink!

Urban Dressing: Thieves
Raging Swan Press
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/21/2013 09:23:31
Adventurers wandering around urban settings need to keep a hand on the belt pouch... for in towns, many of the 'monsters' walk on two legs, and an ever-present threat is the lightfingered. Even a party's own rogue is not exempt from their attentions, and he'd better be cautious about plying his trade as the locals might take exception!
First up is a table-full of pick-pockets and confidence tricksters, all poised to relieve the party of all that heavy loot that's encumbering them after their latest adventures. There's around 50 of them, each with a name and a quick pen-portrait to bring them out of a few die rolls behind your screen and into full-blown inhabitants of your alternate reality. Alas, they are not all as nice as Hassar Junth (N female human adept 1/expert 1), who "loves the idea of thievery, but suffers from a terrible malady - a conscience. Short and stocky, she's developed some talent; but even when she is successful, she often feels so guilty about the theft, she anonymously returns the stolen items." That's just one, there are loads more to bedevil the party with.
Next is a collection of thugs and bashers. Ideal for those parties whose idea of a spot of relaxation is a tavern brawl or alley punch-up. Even these bruisers are given names and personalities, no matter that all they want to do is attack and steal.
This is followed by a collection of skilled thieves. Many of these use levels of skill and cunning that would no doubt earn them plenty if used honestly, yet they prefer a life of crime. Each has a distinctive style - and could prove amusing if you fancied a fantasy police procedural game!
The last table is one of specialists. Most are 7th level or above, folk who have honed nefarious skills to a high level, and most are available for hire should you need such skills, when they are not plying them on their own behalf. Again, well-developed personalities ready to come to life in your alternate reality.
Finally, there's a clutch of fairly generic stat blocks for use when you are in a hurry for some kind of rogue.
Altogether, a useful collection to keep the party on its toes in town!

Encounters for Wandering Adventurers (Fantasy Dungeons)
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/17/2013 11:56:52
Sometimes you need an encounter in a hurry. Sometimes you are sitting looking at an empty dungeon map and wondering just what to put in it... whatever your needs, if you run fantasy dungeon-based adventures this book is here to help.
The neat thing is, it is more than a wandering monster/encounter table; although you can use it as one if you wish. It starts off with one, you can roll a d20 and/or select a suitable adversary from the list. The next few pages, although labelled 'Table of Contents,' are a bit more than that. Under each adversary from the list are two or three options, described in a single sentence. If you are in a rush, and confident in the mechanics of your chosen ruleset, you could run off of these: "A group of hobgoblin trainees are sparring in this area of the dungeon, overseen by a one-eyed commander with battered mail and a wicked glaive" is just one entry under Hobgoblin, yet sets the entire scene for an encounter.
But there's more! Next comes the list again, with those single-sentence scene-setters.. and a whole lot more to expand on the situation, provide possible twists and more. All you need to do is slot in the appropriate stat blocks and other game mechanics for your chosen ruleset, decide when and where the encounter will take place and slot it in.
Let's go back to the hobgoblin example quoted earlier. This expands on the entry by explaining that whilst the trainees are engrossed in their drill, their commander is a bit more alert and will spot the approach of even stealthy parties. Then come the twists. Perhaps the trainees are conscripts and not particularly interested in fighting. Or the commander will trade battle stories with the party rather than brawl with them, or he might offer to fight a duel with a party member rather than risk such untrained recruits in combat.
And there is, of course, a whole lot more, the better part of an hundred different options when you stir all of this up together. Plenty to keep your adventurers busy and their players entertained - and all presented in a clear manner that is easy to use either mid-dungeon or when you are planning the next game.

FO6 - Conquest of Ironrod Tower
Adventures in Filbar
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/16/2013 12:08:57
This is a nicely-presented low level adventure that could be dropped in anywhere suitable in your own campaign world. Basically, the overlords of the area have gone to the bad, raising taxes and offering little but abuse and bad treatment in return. Other senior individuals have decided that enough is enough, and hire the party to depose them.
The adventure itself takes the form of an exploration of the overlords' tower castle. The current occupants, a pair of brothers who are former adventurers themselves, is well-described with plenty of those little details that make a location come to life (although with the occasionally jarring spelling mistake - 'ore' for 'orc' on a few occasions, for example). This is supported by a basic hand-drawn sketch plan.
The expectation seems to be that combat is the only form of negotiation... perhaps that is all the Ironrod brothers now understand. Although the backstory is quite detailed and explains why the brothers are how they are, there is little suggestion as to how they'd respond if the party tries to discuss matters with them. Maybe things have gone too far for that.
A couple of nice touches are a photo of a suitable tower and one of the uniform tabard worn by tower guards (although the design doesn't mesh with the text's description of their coat of arms).
This should make for a merry evening's adventure, a side-trek perhaps, or possibly leading to more.

Exotic Encounters: Froghemoths
Necromancers of the Northwest
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/16/2013 11:37:23
Herein are presented three variant froghemoths. Now, you may find the original Pathfinder Bestiary froghemoth a bit bizarre, both in appearance and behaviour, but if you find them of interest these variations fit in rather nicely, being just as weird in their own ways.
First up is the arctic froghemoth, with chilly breath and barbed harpoons on the end of its tentacles. They are ambush predators and although they seem well-adapted to their frozen environment still never seem completely at ease there.
Then we have the volcanic froghemoth, which makes its home anyplace warm: its name stems from its high body heat and ability to spit flame - although from the sound of it they would probably enjoy an active volcano. As most adventurers steer clear of such places, you may choose to put them elsewhere. This is facilitated by the fact that they are not ambush predators but much more active in search of their prey.
Finally comes the deep froghemoth. This gargantuan creature dwells underground and is covered in a thick acidic slime. It also has a symbiotic relationship with a rather nasty fungus (which apparently does not mind acidic slime!), and spreads its unpleasant spores around with gay abandon.
Ever since froghemoths were first recorded, there has been speculation about their origins. These variations suggest that an extra-planetary or extra-planar origin may indeed be likely, and that their grumpy nature stems from being trapped somewhere, to them, unpleasantly alien! Whether they have descended and diversified from a single group transported to your campaign world, or are unlucky enough to pop through from someplace else on a regular basis is up to you, as is their point of origin and any possibility for adventurers to make the reverse trip!

Fat Goblin Travel Guide To Horrible Horrors & Macabre Monsters
Fat Goblin Games
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/15/2013 07:22:55
Complete with a beautiful fat goblin in hiking gear on the cover, this book contains nearly fifty of the most horrible and depraved monsters you've ever wished not to meet when out for a stroll.
Each monster comes with full-colour illustration, complete stat block and comprehensive notes to aid you in situating it appropriately and running it in combat... most are not the sort to consider a chat over a drink with passing adventurers. Even the sentient ones tend to the ferocious and hostile and as for the rest - well, the Bone Gorger is just after your bones, for example, and is none too particular whether you are alive or not when it gets to eat them.
There are some innovative constructs here, too, like Clockwork Children and the Arc Hound. There's a sad tale behind Clockwork Children. They were created originally to ease the grief of those who lost children to accident or disease - but some abandoned them once they had come to terms with their loss.
Clockwork Dead, on the other hand, are an horrific combination of corpse and construct, moving jerkily around and created by the collaboration of necromancers and artificers to serve various ends, none of them particularly pleasant.
Many of the monsters herein are well suited to 'jump-shock' horror, surprising unwary travellers and proving themselves to be just as unpleasant as they look at first glance. Yet watch out for that nice young lady in the tavern - she might be a Masked Ghoul, poised to resume her normal form and feast upon you rather than with you.
Conveniently, most are contained on a single page, so you can print out just the monsters you need.
An excellent collection, and you can never have too many monsters, after all!

WatchGuard Solo - Hyperion (M&M 3e)
Xion Studios
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/14/2013 07:28:15
If you want a fascinating and cosmic backstory to a character, Hyperion's is the one you are looking for!
Starting as a WW2 US Marine, exposure to something nasty Hitler's scientists were cooking up transformed him into the solar-powered Captain Victory, arguably the very first 'meta' to impact on public consciousness. Sticking firmly to his ideas of public service, he avoided political machinations and seemed to meet his death seeking to protect innocent bystanders from an overload of his powers that was heading for a gigantic explosion.
But that was not the end of him. Catapulted through a wormhole to the Andromeda galaxy, he was picked up by the United Celestial Constabulary, and helped this multi-world organisation create a military arm in which he served with distinction taking on a new outfit and the name Hyperion.
It's an interesting character, but one wholly-absorbed by his activities in the Andromeda galaxy, chiefly skirmishes with Regent and his cohorts. If that's your area of interest, fine: but if your campaign is purely earth-based you may have little use for him!

Tribes Most Foul: Ogres
Raging Swan Press
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/14/2013 06:54:03
Diving straight into the first of three tribes of ogres presented, this work offers up these long-maligned creatures as fully developed individuals in their own right, rather than mere sword-fodder to be cut down by any passing adventurers... making them considerably more interesting, even if you only want to use them as sword-fodder!
The first group is the Masters of the Cauldron, rather than a whole tribe in the conventional sense this is a trio of ogres who are genuine masters of the culinary arts, along with their entourage of kitchen helpers. They earn their considerable living as travelling chefs visiting the high and mighty to cater for important occasions. However delicious they may be, it is wisest not to ask too many questions about their recipes or ingredients... A run-down of the whole brigade and ideas for incorporating them into your adventures are included.
The next bunch goes by the name of the Cauterised Host. These are a gang of genuine mercenaries, available to hire to any with the coin to pay... and not above a spot of banditry when not engaged on the battlefield. Alas, the banditry is one of their more acceptible vices, drug use and physical abuse rank high amongst their leisure interests. Again, plenty of detail is supplied to help them come to life in your campaign.
The final tribe is the Mottled Lurkers. These are forest-dwellers, skilled at using their native enviroment to their advantage. They have an unusual political system, deciding everything by means of formal wrestling bouts held at ogre-moots.There's loads of detail here too, and they'd make an interesting addition to your campaign world.
It's refreshing to see such detail breathing life into your world's ogres without making them any nicer! They are still nastry and brutal... just more three-dimensional and rounded characters!

Chrome Compilation: Cyberpunk Style Guides #1 & #2
R. Talsorian Games Inc.
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/11/2013 13:01:34
Cyberpunk is all about style and chrome (lots of chrome) so what better for a passing 'punk than a bewildering array of items to shop for?
Everything the well-supplied cyberpunk might need is here: electronics, vehicles, cyberware, weapons, fashion, housing... even 'executive services' whatever they are. It reads (deliberately) like any catalogue you have read, full of advertising speak and illustrations that present the item in the best possible like. As a result most of the book can be used as an in-character resource whenever the characters have some spare eurobucks and time to go shopping.
I quite fancy the Net-Runner Cybermodem Utility Suit (although it's likely my students would laugh at me!), but like so many of the items here it does remind you that the game was written a while ago (the two books combined in this product came out in 1991 and 1992 respectively) and are the 1990s view of what technology would be in the future. We're a bit closer to 2020 now, and I'm sure there will be stuff around then that cannot be imagined now, never mind 20-odd years ago... take for example the 'Mead Electronic Notebook' described as a souped-up lapcomp with 6MB RAM and a 30MB hard drive... my pen drive is far bigger than that!
Never mind, it is a classic of its time, and Cyberpunk is still a fun game to play especially if you are old enough to have played it in the 1990s as well.

Guild Hall Battle Map
Grey Matter Games
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/10/2013 11:41:57
This battle map, suitable for 25-30mm wargames figures or miniatures (or suitably-scaled paper standees), depicts a small but imposing structure. It's called a 'Guild Hall' but to my eyes it looks more like a large mausoleum, or a structure in a crematorium where there are little enclosed alcoves for the ashes of the dear departed... I seem to be in a morbid mood this afternoon.
It is very nicely done, almost photorealistic. The cover picture gives an impression of what it looks like viewed normally, the battle map itself is the usual top-down view. The two domes in particular are nicely rendered.
Just why you'd be fighting around the place is a bit open to question. It could be a source or stronghold of zombies, or even somewhere the party has holed up in to get away from them...
Whatever you decide, it's a neat little battle map. Have fun with it.

Fantasy Maps: Magical Research Facility Map Pack
D20 Cartographer
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/08/2013 04:18:35
Have you ever wondered how spells come to be? Or how aspiring mages learn their craft? Perhaps it's because I'm a lecturer (in the more mundane art of computing) but I have. I have computer labs at my disposal, a bank of switches and routers to practice setting up networks and so on... what does a wizard have?
Perhaps this mapset has the answer, a rather cosy facility that provides accommodation, laboratory space and offices for a group of research mages or students. There's just the one dormitory with five beds, but it's roomy and provides study space as well. There's a lab for those with an alchemical bent, several storerooms for supplies, an office and a lounge area. Upstairs, there's a full-blown ritual circle for practising your summoning and a spacious study/classroom area.
The one thing this building lacks is a decent library. However, if you decide it is part of a larger institution, the books and scrolls may be stored elsewhere. Likewise, the chief magician - Professor of Magic or whatever - may live elsewhere, even if he uses the big office on the ground floor during the day.
From the technical standpoint, nice artwork and presented as 'easy-print' PDFs, large JPEG files you can edit and annotate, and more that are specifically prepared for those using virtual table top facilities to game online. Nice stuff!

100 Hobbies - Modern
Ennead Games
Megan R.
[Featured Reviewer]
Date Added: 11/08/2013 03:54:21
Deciding on things like hobbies for your character is all part of making them a well-rounded person who will come to life in your shared alternate reality. Even trivia like favourite foods or colours can help develop him into someone who is 'real' to you... and when it comes to hobbies and interests... well, they are what often define YOU as an interesting person, so why not your character?
This product is just something to help you start thinking, a list of an hundred 'modern' hobbies that your character might spend his leisure time on. Some might even prove an advantage in the reality of the game world, others may merely provide topics of casual conversation. A character who, for example, enjoys car restoration may be at less of a loss when his car breaks down that his fellow party member who spends his spare time playing rugby or poker... but when there's a gang of crooks to infiltrate, that poker-player might come into his own as he joins a back-room game several gang members are known to attend.
If you are serious about role-playing and developing believeable characters who just might exist somewhere, this is a resource that you may find helpful.

You must earn 10,000 points to post other members' whiteboard
Congratulations on posting for 1200 consecutive days,, that's real dedication. Keep it going. YB.Shep
absolutely unbelievable. except that after working for the US Army for over 32 year's I've learned - again and again - that NOTHING should be assumed unbelievable. thanks for the response. btw - Three dog nights version of eddie cochoran's 'mama told me not to come' ... where there's a will, there's a way :->.
Dude, maybe I don't understand the games forum, but why is the favorite cover songs currently locked? Personally, I like Miles Davis' version of Cyndi Luaper's 'time after time', and The Who's version of Eddie Cochran's 'summertime blues' to name just two.
Love the photo, I wonder how many out there have seen any of his silent movies? His slapstick was funny
Oh, of course it's Buster Keaton. My silent film comic knowledge is a little fuzzy. Did you have to photoshop the text into the picture? If so, it's very clever.
BTW Your picture is hysterical.Is that Joey Brown?
I got the word out. Saw the uptick on my Thrnton's text message.
You didn't piss anyone off, except those who were too thin-skinned to understand. But don't despair, there are many sites out there grateful for our postings.
Today is our buddy mister8tch's birthday. Please post a birthday message on his whiteboard. We're having a party over there.... Thank you!!!
Today is our buddy AlleycatMO's birthday, (regardless of what her profile says ;-) ...Please stop by and wish her a happy birthday. thanks!

Knowledge of the consciousness of the unborn child provides the unprecedented opportunity and responsibility to change the practice of obstetrics. Pregnancy and birth are primal experiences, but caregivers often forget this as they are caught up in the technological current of our contemporary obstetrical world. Fear has often replaced joyful expectation for mother, baby, and provider. Instinctual maternal behavior of comfort and care for the unborn child can be fostered. Maternal appreciation of and communication with the intelligent fetus can be encouraged from the first prenatal visit.
Although adoption is considered by many people to be the optimal solution to the problem of relinquished children, the growing number of adoptees searching for birth parents and the advent of pre- and peri-natal psychology suggest that it is not so simple a solution as had once been thought.
This research model moves from a comprehensive review of SIDS research to a consideration of the evolution of human infant development and why we should expect to find that especially in the first year of life, parent-infant sleep contact asserts a significant physiological regulatory effect on the infant's breathing. Prenatal studies of fetal hearing and breathing are reviewed and used to argue that the central nervous system is at birth already sensitized to parental breathing rhythms to which the infant in its "expected" postnatal environment will have access.
Various prenatal stimulation approaches over recent years have resulted in thousands of children with exceptional abilities that do not prove problematic-unlike enhancement lacking an in utero component. Nonetheless, at the inception of every major historical shift transitional measures are idiosyncratic, unsystematically deriving impetus from early success while not yet identifying a common theme in order to promote consistent achievement. This challenge is met through synthesis leading toward comprehensive application.
Infertility affects one in six couples in America. Only half, or five million of them will be helped by medical means. For the others, the problem is long term. Women who are infertile may not only grieve the childless state, but must also incorporate the inability to have a child into their sexual identity. The emotional turmoil of infertility can have far reaching effects. The woman's self identity is called into question, as are her role expectations. The quest to become pregnant overshadows daily living, which can affect the couples relationship.

You may not run your own beer company or supervise those who make it, but you can pretend for one night while filling yourself full of some of the most talented chefs in Acadiana's offerings. The Acadiana Center for the Arts is holding its third annual Brewmasters' Dinner a week from today and you're invited.
Starting with cocktails in the AcA's atrium at 6 p.m. on June 30, this is a precursor to the big Gulf Brew festival held yearly in the park downtown, this year on July 23. The festival as well as this special dinner focus on beer that hails from the Gulf Coast.
This dinner is $75 per seat or $550 for a table for eight. It is a six-course meal and each will have a beer represented to compliment it. Each chef from a local restaurant will prepare one of the courses. Patrons will get to vote on which course is the best based on presentation, taste and balance with the beer chosen for that course. Last year's winner was chef Heath Lemoine of Zea Rotisserie and Grill, who will be presenting a course again. Joining him will be chef Craig Crosby (Pamplona Tapas Bar), Justin Girouard (The French Press), Toon Nguyen (Tsunami) and Nash Barreca (Nash's Restaurant). The dinner will be served in AcA's James Devin Moncus Theater at 7 p.m.
Call the AcA 233-7060 or visit the box office in person to purchase tickets for this event or for Gulf Brew itself. For more information on either event or to buy tickets check out its site here.

A new statewide poll released before the holiday break shows U.S. Sen. David Vitter of Metairie atop a gubernatorial field dominated by Republicans.
DEC 5 Here's the latest in the contest to see who gets the last word - Attorney General Buddy Caldwell or state Sen. Robert Adley. They're trading "Nuh-uhs" and "Un-huhs" over the issue of contigency contracts for public lawsuits. The guys over at LaPolitics kinda started this urinary competition, and they're posting the latest here.
DEC 5 Here's a post by blogger Walt Bennetti about a $2 million program management contract that Kenner Mayor Michael Yenni plans to award. Bennetti has a problem with no-bid contracts, but they're pretty common, especially for professional services (because really, who wants the cheapest doctor?) But the real problem Bennetti has is with the fact that the entity slated to receive the contract also happened to contribute to Yenni's campaign. Maybe he's just following the governor's lead?
DEC 5 Blogger Robert Mann writes about the really embarassing state of Louisiana's universities in this post. Grambling's football facilites were bad enough to warrant a New York Times photo essay, and he provides a link. And just recently, a concrete roof panel in LSU's College of Art and Design collapsed, closing a portion of the building indefinitely. Is this how we want our state's higher ed institutions to be?
DEC 5 Here's a post on the National Journal about another speech our governor gave to a bunch of people who live in another state. This time, he was ranting about President Obama, energy policies and, of all things, Lady Gaga. Keystone is good, so is fracking, and climate change is a big joke, Bobby says. What did Gaga do? She joined a movement, with people like Yoko Ono, that opposes fracking. Listen up Bobby: you might not want to alienate Gaga. You never know where those little monsters might be hiding -- and how often they vote.
DEC 5 Yesterday, we were perplexed by conflicting stories on the Blade blog and in the Advertiser about Louisiana's National Guard and same-sex partner benefits. The Blade reported that the guard would be paying them; the Advertiser said it would not. This story in the Washington Post clears it up: the benefits will be paid.
DEC 5 Clearly, somebody over at the state Democratic Party is familiar with the process of domain registration. This is the second time they've pulled the rug out from under a Republican candidate by reserving a domain they might want. Last time, it was RiserForCongress.com (hope they didn't pay too much for THAT one). This time it is VitterForGovernor.com, this post on the Politicus USA blog tells us.
DEC 5 Here's a pretty alarming story from WAFB about an announcement by Bobby Jindal's administration that hackers apparently got their hands on some citizens' personal info through JP Morgan Chase, the company that gets paid to send you your tax refund on a debit card. But hey, don't worry, Jindal's people say: there's no indication the hackers used the info "fraudulently." Oh, OK. Whew.
DEC 5 In this week's post, Jim Brown is blogging about Bobby Jindal and what the governor should do to solve his myriad problems. He even describes a phone call he 'received' from the guv asking for advice. Bottom line? Try staying home and doing the job you're supposed to be doing, Jim advises.

Wind River Brings Own Android to Market
Embedded specialist Wind River strives to win mobile network users with hardware compliance and its own Android branding.
Wind River is wooing mobile phone manufacturers with test runs and optimization that should make Wind River Android particularly reliable. The Android platform should run especially well on on the OMAP3 platform, but other boards should not present a problem for the mobile and embedded development vendor. Some of their collaborators already include Adobe (Flash), PacketVideo (multimedia player) and Red Bend (firmware over-the-air). New versions of Wind River Android should appear quarterly and concurrent with Android updates. The Intel undertaking will also naturally sell worldwide support for its mobile operating system. Prices have not been announced.
Wind River has already been busy with Android in the past. With the components of its newest Android offering, Wind River plans to optimize the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) for its hardware for Android and provide other hardware compatibilities as to multimedia and boot-time acceleration. OEMs and other providers can build in Wind River bootup and termination screens along with extended functions such as gesture options for calls and sending SMS messages. Another example is modified phone functions such as the short/long press behavior of hard and soft keys.
With Texas Instruments, that is also a member of the Open Handset Alliance and the Limo Foundation, Wind River, which was recently acquired by Intel, entered a stragegic partnership in, among other things, Android and OMAP (Open Multimedia Application Platform). In November chip designer ARM instituted its own Android project. Meanwhile Qualcomm set up a new Innovation Center "focused on mobile open source platforms," with Android just among a few others.
The Linux-based mobile network system enhanced its multimedia capabilities in September with its new Android 1.6. It also provided multiple account and sychronization functions in its latest major update to 2.0 in October. Its newest release is Android 2.0.1.

We purchased 2" memory foam to go on our king-sized bed. We already bought new pillow-top mattresses but they were still lacking. We were tossing and turning all night. Purchased the memory foam and WOW does it make a difference. It shipped lightening fast. The smell dissipated quickly and it took it's correct form within 2 hours. We slept on it the day it came. Would highly recommend especially if your back hurts! Great price and great quality.
OK, I have bought several versions of this on line and the Serta is the nicest. There is no smell, they unfold nicely if left alone and are very very comfortable. I bought these for an arthritic nun in her 80's that said she had her first full nights's sleep in years (she has knee and hip problems). They are so impressed with the product that I ordered a second one for another nun that has Rheumatoid arthritis and usually has to sleep in a chair and get up and walk in the middle of the night...who had her first good night sleep that she can remember...she woke up once but fell back to sleep - what a testiment!
I ordered this mattress topper because I was hoping to find some relief for my back and shoulders. I have had arthritis in both shoulders and lower back and I could only sleep a few hours at a time without having to flip over to try and find a more comfortable position. At times I was flipping every twenty minutes or so. Needless to say, I wasn't sleeping very well. This topper has changed all that. From the very first night, I have been able to sleep much more comfortably. I find that I don't wake up throughout the night like before. I sleep much more soundly and I wake up without the aches and pains that I used to. We have a really good mattress, but it wasn't enough. Now with the topper, it is not a GREAT mattress. This product is worth a lot more. It was everything I had hoped for and more!
Wow! This Serta Topper arrived only four (4) days after I placed my order. I unrolled it in the morning when it arrived to let it "bloom" while I was out. I came home to find my son and all of our pets asleep on it! Not to worry, not a paw or claw mark anywhere. I joined them for a while and then made the bed. I don't remember anything after laying down! No late-night TV to lull me to sleep, just luxurious oblivion! This morning when the alarm rang, my son came in to shut it off and laid down for a moment. That was at 6AM. Hello! It's 10:30 now, we just woke up so I better run him to school. You have to try this! It will change your life! Bliss, luxurious Bliss! If you thought high TC sheets were it, you're in for a surprise! Whoohoo! Ten Stars!
The mattress topper is extremely comfortable, but the overwhelming chemical smell is just too much. They recommend airing them out for 48 hours and I am approaching 1 month of having this topper out in my 3 season room and I still cannot put it on my bed. Not sure where this is made and by what standards, but I have had other toppers that I was able to sleep on the next day after purchase.
I love this topper. It added just the right amount of cushioning to our memory foam mattress (I got the wrong density and the mattress was too firm) my fiancee said that she didn't think the bed could get more comfortable and then we added this topper and it did. we're both very happy with this topper.
Hubby has chronic pain issues, so a comfortable sleep is hugely important. When his doctor suggested a memory foam mattress, we looked into them, but the price was too much for us right now, especially since we already have a high-quality pillow-top mattress. Adding this was a great compromise. Hubby is sleeping much better! I wasn't sure at first that it would fit; it was compressed so tightly for shipping that I was convinced it was too small. After several hours of letting it relax back into shape, it expanded to the perfect CalKing size.
I bought the Serta 2" topper to soften a firm mattress, which it did do. Unfortunately, it made me and my wife's backs hurt. I am a side sleeper, so it did help with pressure points, but for some reason it caused me low back pain. I suppose it made the bed too soft and unsupportive and I am more used to a firm bed with a regular foam pillow top. My wife is a stomach sleeper, and it caused her mid back pain. Also, it does trap a lot of heat, so it made us both a little warm. The memory foam smell was never an issue though. This topper may be a good topper for some, but not for us. Our disapproval of this topper may just be the result of sleeping on thicker memory foam. This was the first topper I've ever owned, so I don't know if another brand would be any better. We tried the topper for about a month, then we switched to a 1.5 inch egg shell topper that seems to be less cushy. My advice is, when you buy a mattress get one that is the right comfort level for you so you won't waste money on trying to get the right comfort level using a topper like this one.
Great for my back and my fibromyalgia helps the pain.I get a good nights sleep.It didn't have a smell.
This is the 2nd Serta I've bought. Great brand and product. Make sure you always get a memory topper that is4lb.s density or more. This always was delivered lightning quick!

Growing emotional, Kerry says wife is 'doing better'
Teresa Heinz Kerry in fair condition
Secretary of State John Kerry took a moment at the beginning of his remarks at the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue Wednesday to thank everyone for their support of Kerry and his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry, who was rushed to the hospital on Sunday.
"Teresa is doing better," Kerry said. "Under evaluation and we hope improving."
Heinz Kerry was taken to Nantucket Cottage Hospital by ambulance Sunday after falling ill, exhibiting symptoms similar to that of a seizure. She is currently staying at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston where she is listed in fair condition.
In a rare display of emotion Wednesday, Kerry said he wanted "to thank everybody for the remarkable outpouring of good wishes," he said. "It's been really very special. We are very, very humbled by the expressions of support. I think she's coming along. And I know when she's able to she'll thank everybody herself."
