Participants will have the opportunity to design, envision, collaborate, and dialog with new friends on the future of their own neighborhoods. To prepare for the challenging times ahead of us, we encourage you to come, be heard, and engage. The format of your participation can be setting up a table or tent in one of the neighborhoods to collaborate and share information, interactive classes, power-point presentations, hands-on demonstrations of sustainable skills, forums or artistic endeavors.

Introduction: plz feel free to com and mail | ||
Runner Up: Bill worked in a pickle factory. He had been employed there for a number of years when he came home one day to confess to his wife that he had a terrible compulsion. He had an urge to stick his penis into the pickle slicer. His wife suggested that he should see a sex therapist to talk about it, but Bill said he would be too embarrassed. He vowed to overcome the compulsion on his own. One day a few weeks later, Bill came home and his wife co uld see at once that something was seriously wrong. 'What's wrong, Bill?' she asked. 'Do you remember that I told you how I had this tremendous urge to put my penis into the pickle slicer?' 'Oh, Bill, you didn't' she exclaimed. 'Yes, I did.' he replied. 'My God, Bill, what20 happened?' 'I got fired.' 'No, Bill. I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?' 'Oh...she got fired too.' ----- |

The family of a 32-year-old woman shot and killed by a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent in Chula Vista Friday is outraged by what they believe was an unjustified shooting.
Police and family members confirmed that Chula Vista resident Valeria "Monique" Alvarado, also known as Valeria Tachiquin, was the woman killed in the agent-involved shooting around 1 p.m. Friday near Moss Street and Oaklawn Avenue.
Chula Vista officials said the shooting happened in the middle of the street in a residential area after a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent was allegedly assaulted by a woman driving a vehicle.

Managers often become responsible for teams that they haven't chosen. But they still have to lead these teams.
They generally know how to communicate easily with about two thirds of the members of their team. But a lot of their energy is taken up by the last third. There are different solutions available for managing these individuals: don't worry about them; confront them harshly and regularly; feel guilty about not being up to the task, etc.
When you understand the inner dynamics of each color, you will save time and energy while getting good results from everyone on your team. In this way, managers build teams of people who complement each other and increase their personal results and the results of their team.

And Kuwait.
For more on what could be next doctor -- in Paris Fox News Middle Eastern affairs analyst also author of the book.
The coming revolution struggle for freedom in the Middle East.
Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Fox News contributor Judith Miller thank you -- both for being here.
Should war games as they are all being carried out in the region right now is United States is enlarging its presence.
Is this a wise idea.
I think it's an essential idea I mean we have to be prepared for what ever happens in the region and at the moment.
I've never seen the region in such turbulence he's serious coming apart the Red Cross on Sunday declared -- the civil war finally finally.
Almost 171000.
Dead we have Iran waiting to see what the west is prepared to do or not prepared to do about its nuclear.
Not -- weapons but nuclear program.
This is a very very dangerous moment in the Middle East.
-- -- -- -- Yes -- is right on actually when we look at the map we understand.
That we are not on the offensive data states deployment in the Arab supportive deployment in the region is basically on the defensive because the Iranian regime is playing -- big game.
It is -- had announced basically that if we intervene and Syria.
That would basically make it very difficult in the gulf that would deter the Arabs that would put a lot of pressure on international economic community as you know.
And that's why I think -- -- mean all these additional you know.
It's let me ask people.
Why in the world would the United States intervene in -- -- I don't think there's any sign that we're going to but I think we're now concerned about is that collapse of the Syrian regime.
And suddenly a lot of chemical weapons being in lord knows -- -- Because we have seen signs that these weapons -- you don't want to around the Obama administration today saying through signs of government that your going to be responsible for your right or.
That is one of the dumbest.
But I could imagine this administration saying to side.
Of whom they've told to get out again as they have done others there is such great effect we're we're which -- it's it's monstrous foreign policy.
And administration of that policy.
What in the world -- they thinking about.
Well I didn't I think they're thinking that they don't want to be involved for an American election especially.
In a civil war between the -- white regime a minority regime and the majority Sunni population.
And -- to what -- do they make and another you know blunder bust.
A -- -- bravado written declaration -- we'll hold you responsible for your chemical.
-- Yes a lot of statements over two years now 20112012.
We can't do -- Libya and Syria first of -- as Judith said this is an election year we can't begin a campaign we don't know -- that would end.
Second the Syrian regime is backed by the Iranian regime by pro Iranian politicians and Iraq and by Hezbollah.
And attack against asset basically means for regimes would counter attack.
He either against us in the gulf or against our allies the Turks and Hezbollah very difficult situation though.
Do you both -- call is I suspect you do -- In 2008 and a presidential campaign.
All of the heart being from this now president.
And his campaign organization over multilateralism.
And the absolute.
This Dane with which they in which they held.
-- contempt for the bush unilateralism.
What in the world is going on here they are doing precisely the same thing.
Well we have actually sad crap subcontracted.
Are Syria policy to Kofi Annan and the UN -- hoping that.
Annan will be able to find -- diplomatic solution.
After 171000.
People dead in Syria it.
And the Russians the illusion zero via -- and ever found for anything well no cooking and it's actually settled some very difficult conflicts but I don't think.
He's despite his great effort he's going to be able to settle this one.
-- I'm sorry.
The Disco fan and have any mine sweepers.
Carrier group asked which party in the first little as 300 monitors sitting in Syria you know whose mandate is expiring on Friday.
-- we must decide as a Friday whether or not we're going to extend the presence of those 300 people in Syria -- -- point well.
Does it occurred through this administration.
And US leadership.
That this is.
This is a -- -- that is being played right now.
Absolutely -- major strategic mistakes have been made by the -- over the past two years since the so called Arab Spring with regard Syria.
If you don't have a plan for the big guy for Iraq.
-- can't have a plan for Syria.
Because if intervene in Syria or have our allies and to be in Syria Iran and Iraq -- Hezbollah would intervene that's one problem the other problem.
Who -- we partnering within the region.
In Egypt the Muslim Brotherhood in Tunisia -- islamists not -- So by the end of this year gonna have a North Africa ruled by the Muslim Brotherhood or so and everything between Beirut and Tehran is fueled by and Iran -- regime unfortunate.
And as to northern Africa.
-- the reason for that is that -- heavily successful.
Foreign policy of the Obama administration and large contributor to -- the reality that now confronts.
The US government.
By the way which Orly and Paris predicted right here on this broadcast several times -- first thank you for being with us Judith Miller always good to talk with you both come back -- up --

The upcoming quarterback battle between returning starter Mike Perish and up-and-comer Robert Tonyan Jr. is on the radar of followers of the Indiana State football program.
It should be intriguing, no doubt.
But there are dozens of student-athletes ready to prove to new head coach Mike Sanford they deserve time on the turf at Memorial Stadium.
That was evidenced by the summer with ISU strength and conditioning coaches, led by Dave McManus.
"According to our strength coach Dave McManus, it was the most guys that we've ever had here in the summer for conditioning," Sanford said.
"My indications and what I'm hearing is the leadership and attitudes were excellent in the summer."
The Sycamores have gaping holes at linebacker to fill and a large group of newcomers at wide receivers will be looking to impressive the offensive coaching staff in the next few weeks, leading up to the season opener Aug. 29 at Indiana University.
It might take all the way up to that date for Sanford to decide who will line up under veteran center FN Lutz. Perish has more experience, but Tonyan's athleticism could be appealing as the Sycamore shift into a spread-style offense under Sanford.
"I think it'll take a while for us to determine that. There's a chance, because of what both of them bring to the table, there's a chance we could end up playing both of them," Sanford said.
On campus, the ISU football suite was buzzing with newcomers, veterans and assistant coaches Wednesday afternoon, the first day for players to report to camp after a week off from summer conditioning. Practice begins today at Memorial Stadium.
All-American running back Shakir Bell was among those in the building and Sanford is ready to get his most dynamic playmaker on the field in his new offensive system.
Bell is one of three running backs in the Missouri Valley Football Conference on the Walter Payton Award watch list.
"I think your running back and your offensive line sets the tone for your offense, and so he needs to set that tone as far as how he practices, how he learns and all that," said Sanford, who hopes to create a strong level of balance in the Sycamores' offense.
"I can't predict what he's going to do, but one of the deals, we want to keep him healthy. We want to utitlize his talents. At the same time, we don't want to have a deal where everybody on the field knows who's going to get the ball every play. We want to try to be as unpredictable as possible, but we also want to utilize him to the fullest of his ability," Sanford said. "I haven't been in the heat of the battle with him, I'm looking forward to working with him in a competitive situation."
Bell will be able to rely on an offensive line led by veteran center FN Lutz.
"He's the anchor and leader of our offensive front and our offense. Very excited about him being back," Sanford said.
Sanford looks forward to playing Big Ten in-state opponents Indiana and Purdue to start the season.
But his focus will quickly move to competing for a MVFC championship against some of the top teams in the Football Championship Subdivision.
Heavy favorite North Dakota State was the unanimous pick to win the league based on a large contingent of players returning to the roster for the two-time defending national champion Bison.
The Sycamores were picked to finish sixth in the MVFC.
"We have a lot of respect for North Dakota State, a lot of respect for a lot of teams, but North Dakota State had a tremendous year and they're defending national champions," Sanford said. "My opinion is we have something to prove. We need to gain more respect than where people see us finishing. That's all talk. That's something we've got to do with action."
ISU's QB battle could get interesting

ISU picks up the defense to take down Eastern Illinois
When it's cold outside, it takes a while for your car engine to crank.
It wasn't cold inside Eastern Illinois' Lantz Arena on Saturday, but the same principle applied for the Indiana State men's basketball team.
Once the Sycamore engine revved up, the Sycamores cruised to a 66-48 victory over the Panthers. -
Michigan State shakes up national title chase with win over Ohio State
Michigan State shook up the BCS title chase again Saturday night.
The No. 10 Spartans regained the lead on Connor Cook's 9-yard touchdown pass to Josiah Price with 11:41 left and upset No. 2 Ohio State 34-24 to take the Big Ten title and put Auburn back in the national title hunt.
Zurek, one of ISU's best defenders, also working hard off the court
Winning basketball teams need glue players, the term sometimes used when referring to someone who helps hold it all together.
In some cases, that means getting the ball in the right place at the right time. Or having a knack for being in the right place at the right time.
It's more often than not coming away with a loose ball on the court. It's deflecting so many passes that you become the player that most annoys the opponent.
For Indiana State, that's Natasha Zurek. The junior athletic training major was inserted into the starting lineup for the past two games.
Zurek leads the Sycamores with 16 steals through six games, which isn't surprising to anyone on the team. -
EIU might come at right time for ISU
Sometimes an opponent lines up just right on the schedule that suits a team's needs.
That's true for Indiana State as it travels to play Eastern Illinois at 8 p.m. today at Lantz Arena. And it's not because the Panthers have struggled, even though they have. -

Indiana State's men's basketball team is very much a work in progress defensively. Evidence of that came Saturday when Pepperdine shot 57.8 percent against the Sycamores in the fourth-place game of the Great Alaska Shootout.
But when it came down to winning time? Pepperdine's Waves crashed on the rocks of ISU's defense. -
Hoosiers gain 692 total yards, re-claim Oaken Bucket

Indiana State's men's basketball team did many things right during the 2012-13 season, but one thing it couldn't get a handle on was its 3-point shooting. The Sycamores shot 32.1 percent from 3-point range, ranked 252nd in the nation. It was going to take a lot of work to improve ISU's percentage. So far, hard work has had its own reward.

Ontario economic prosperity threatened by diabetes
Canadian Diabetes Association Releases Ontario Diabetes Report
TORONTO, ONTARIO (September 8, 2010) – The Canadian Diabetes Association released today the findings from its Ontario Diabetes Cost Model. The model shows that the cost and prevalence of diabetes in the province has risen sharply over the last 10 years and, without action, will continue to increase substantially over the next 10 years.
"The economic burden of diabetes in Ontario is staggering and threatens the sustainability of our healthcare system and the provincial economy," said Michael Cloutier, President and CEO, Canadian Diabetes Association. "It's estimated the direct and indirect financial impact of diabetes in Ontario currently costs the province $4.9 billion per year. By 2020, these costs will increase to $7 billion per year if we don't take action."
The economic burden of diabetes represents only a part of Ontario's challenge. The human cost of the disease is also reaching epidemic proportions in the province. The Ontario Diabetes Cost Model estimates that there are currently 1.2 million people, or 8.2 per cent of the population, diagnosed with diabetes in Ontario – increasing to more than 1.9 million people, or 11.9 per cent of the population, by 2020. These figures do not include people undiagnosed with diabetes or people living with prediabetes, where blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough for an individual to be diagnosed with the disease.
"One in four Ontarians will be living either with diabetes or prediabetes by 2020," said Cloutier. "Turning the tide against diabetes requires a significant shift in government approach, private sector involvement and broad-based personal and societal change."
To offset the burden caused by diabetes, the Canadian Diabetes Association has recommended that the government adjust its current Ontario Diabetes Strategy to reflect three key priorities: a broad-based diabetes prevention strategy, a targeted population-at-risk strategy and a diabetes complications prevention strategy.
"We need to focus on how we think about and approach diabetes management and prevention in our province," added Cloutier.
This is the second provincial cost model report released by the Canadian Diabetes Association. The first report was released this past May for New Brunswick. The Association continues to roll out diabetes cost models for all provinces and territories.
About the Ontario Diabetes Cost Model
The Ontario Diabetes Cost Model was created for the Association by the Centre for Spatial Economics based on the Canadian Diabetes Cost Model developed by Informetrica Limited. The two main sources of data used for the estimate and forecasts come from the National Diabetes Surveillance System (NDSS) and Health Canada's study the Economic Burden of Illness in Canada (EBIC). The Model aimed to integrate the administrative prevalence and incidence estimates from NDSS with the economic cost estimates from EBIC. The Ontario Diabetes Cost Model follows the Association's An Economic Tsunami: The Cost of Diabetes in Canada. This economic report was supported by an unrestricted educational grant provided by Novo Nordisk Canada Inc.
About the Canadian Diabetes Association
The Canadian Diabetes Association is leading the fight against diabetes by helping people with diabetes live healthy lives while we work to find a cure. We are supported in our efforts by a community-based network of volunteers, employees, healthcare professionals, researchers and partners. By providing education and services, advocating on behalf of people with diabetes, supporting research, and translating research into practical applications - we are delivering on our mission.

Since the 2009 launch by Sir Paul McCartney I have chosen to follow the Meat Free Monday (also known as Meatless Monday) campaign with a Meat Free Monday Recipe. The essence of the campaign is summed up by Sir Paul who said "Having one designated meat free day a week is actually a meaningful change that everyone can make, that goes to the heart of several important political, environmental and ethical issues all at once."
The campaign has gained a considerable following and here are my top ten favourite Meat Free Monday Recipes.
1. Cauliflower Cheese Recipe
Cauliflower cheese is a quintessentially traditional British food. A It is a great recipe as it is so easy, and versatile - it appears throughout British food in various guises; an essential side dish at Sunday lunch, a delicious filling for a baked potato and sometimes, even encased in pastry as a pasty or quiche so makes a perfect Meat Free Monday recipe.
Cauliflower Cheese makes the most of British cauliflowers which are not only cheap but available almost year round. Perfect food
Cauliflower Cheese Recipe
2. Gordon Ramsay's Spicy Vegetable and Paneer Wraps Recipe
Spicy vegetable and paneer wraps are, according to Gordon Ramsay, a typical street food in India, they are also popular here in Britain. These wraps are vegetarian and a delicious Meat Free Monday recipe, however Gordon Ramsay suggests adding a little mince or spicy chicken if you prefer a non-vegetarian recipe.
This recipe is courtesy of Gordon Ramsay from his book Great Escapes.
3. Irish Colcannon Recipe
Colcannon is a favorite Irish recipe and a particular St Patrick's Day favorite. As you can see from this recipe, it is quick, easy and simple to make.
Though Colcannon was traditionally used for predicting marriage on Halloween it has become an everyday side dish and is a favourite meat free dish when served with a fried egg on top. I love it.
4. Golden Beetroot Pasta Recipe
Beetroot and pasta is a lovely combination, but for a change try this lovely summer recipe for vibrant, tasty pasta dish. Golden beetroot has a slightly milder flavour than the regular one and is a stunning bright yellow colour, which brings a splash of colour to any dish. Combined with fresh herb pesto and fresh spicy rocket the Golden Beetroot pasta dish is also very healthy.
If you can't find yellow pasta, then use regular beetroot, be prepared though, it turns the pasta a pretty pink colour.5. Wild Mushroom Lasagna Recipe
This Wild Mushroom Lasagna recipe makes wonderful alternative to the traditional meat lasagna. Though not a traditional British recipe, it is popular during the autumn when fresh wild mushrooms are plentiful. The rest of the year you will find lots of varieties of muchrooms which work equally well.
The fresh lasagna is not pre-cooked in this recipe as the juice given off from the mushrooms during cooking cooks it.
6. Caramelized Garlic Tart Recipe
This Caramelized Garlic Tart recipe comes for Chef Ottolenghi's book, Plenty. It is a book about vegetables and interesting and inspiring ways to cook them, so there is plenty of inspiration for Meat Free Monday.
The tart makes a great brunch, lunch, dinner, party or picnic dish - a great all rounder. Making the Caramelised Garlic Tart takes a little worth, but is well worth the effort.
7. Pumpkin Soup Recipe
A wonderful autumn/winter dish, this Pumpkin Soup recipes is a cross between a baked pumpkin and a soup so is perfect as a Meat Free Monday recipe.
This lovely recipe from Simon Hopkinson's book, Vegetarian Option, who first encountered the recipe in the seminal book, Great Chefs of France and over the years has adapted it to a more manageable recipe for the home-cook.
8. Vegetable Biryani Recipe
This mildly spiced curry dish makes a delicious supper dish for Meat Free Monday and also doubles as a side dish for other days of the week. The vegetables listed in the recipe are a suggestion only, use whatever you have to hand to ring the changes.
9. Tomato and White Bean Casserole Recipe
Tomato and White Bean Casserole is a hearty, filling, vegetable casserole, perfect for chilly days. The casserole is packed with beans and with the addition of tomatoes is a very healthy dish as a main course or as an accompaniment to other dishes.
This tomato and white bean casserole recipe uses canned white beans but you can also use frozen beans as long as they have been precooked before freezing.
10. Beetroot and Goats Cheese Soup
In this Beetroot Soup recipe, the beets partner up nicely with a toasted bread crouton slathered with tasty goats cheese, a great combination but feel free to use a cheese you like; just remember it needs to be a little punchy in flavour.

Comments about Merrell Avian Light Ventilator Waterproof Multisport Shoes - Women's:
Love these for daily wear and for light hiking. They're especially great for Seattle's wet, rainy winters. I wear them almost everyday and on light trail hikes where I don't need my heavy duty hiking boots. They work great for both. Nice amount of traction on wet hikes and I love that they're waterproof.
The metal eyelets at the top of shoe eventually (after 6 months) shred the laces.

Comments about Merrell Avian Light Ventilator Waterproof Multisport Shoes - Women's:
My first pair had an issue with the foot inserts where it rubbed against my heel, but I was able to fix it. Immediately these shoes began to eat the shoe laces from the metal it feeds through. I contacted Merrell and they rudely replied that they could not send me out a new pair of laces, but I could buy from this company. The company sells the cheapest shoe laces I have ever seen. Once they wore through, I bought new shoe laces from REI. A week later (4 months since I had bought them), I suddenly had discomfort on the bottom of my foot. The sole had completely fallen off below my toes. I went to REI to change them out. I was able to compare them to a brand new pair and the tread had barely worn. I got the new pair and my first time to try them on was when I was going hiking. I didn't think to check them in the store (which I now know I should have). The foot insert was wavy making it uncomfortable. Since I had a similar issue with the first pair, I decided to see if I could wear it down to flatten it out. Well that wasn't the only problem. The other shoe had a bump on the heel and rubbed against my heel turning it red. If I hadn't received a piggyback ride back to the car, it easily would have created a blister. My mom has always had Merrells and she loves them, but recently she's noticed their quality severally dropping. They were great for my narrow feet, but its no fun to wear them when they hurt you.

Comments about Merrell Avian Light Ventilator Waterproof Multisport Shoes - Women's:
I really wanted to love these shoes. I have a narrow, slim foot and this style had such promise as it didn't swallow my foot whole when I tried it on. I use a better insole(orthotic) as I need good arch support and a bit more protection on the bottom of the foot. Loved the fact that this shoe had the Vibram sole. Felt like a street shoe sneaker when I tried it on in the store. However, I felt every stone and piece of gravel through the sole of the shoe on my hikes. Plus, the slight rub against the side of my big toe become obnoxious once my foot swelled a bit. The toebox narrows a bit too much for my liking... I like to be able to have a bit more freedom of movement in the toe box area. I normally wear a 10 in street shoes, 10.5 in athletic shoes sometime. These were an 11! I would have traded for a larger size but Merrell does not make it! What? Not the style for me. I eventually purchased the Merrell Moab Ventilator style in the 11...fits great with my orthotic and I can do yoga toes in the toe box! Now I'm happy.

Who is Mister Heavenly

We at the Rice Thresher love KTRU's yearly Outdoor Show: Not only is there free beer, tasty food and mind blowing music, but it gives us the chance to interview killer bands. After several hours of hyperventilation and a minor drooling incident, the Thresher got to hang out with Mister Heavenly, one of the Outdoor Show's headliners. We chatted about many profound topics, like music licensing, Abbie Hoffman, rural western Canada and shooting rats.
Rice Thresher: So Mister Heavenly, the band, how did you guys meet?
Nicholas Thorburn: You said Mister Heavenly, which one is it, the person or the band?
RT: The band.
NT: How we always meet? I've been asked that question too many times today.
Honus Honus: No no no, we answered one of those tear ads in a coffee shop.
NT: It was terrible.
Michael Cera: They were tear-orrists.
Joe Plummer: They answered a tear ad, I knew Ryan because I've known his sister, I went to high school with his sister.
NT: He dated my ex-girlfriend.
HH: I dated his ex-girlfriend so we didn't like each other.
NT: Who was, not to get weird, Joe's sister.
HH: I didn't want to drop that nugget.
MC: And your sister's my current girlfriend.
HH: Yeah and three-fourths of us are Canadian.
RT: I'm Canadian!
HH: Oh yeah, where are you from?
RT: I'm from Ontario.
HH: Oh that sucks.
MC: Where in Ontario?
RT: Like an hour west of Montreal, a small mill town. It's called Cornwall.
NT: I SAID Cornwall did you not hear that? We have documentation. I said that twice but it's OK, you were in a weird trance.
RT: What is your spirit animal?
HH: Mine is a —
NT: Don't say it.
HH: Drunk lima bean.
RT: Can you tell us why?
HH: No.
JP: Mine's a domesticated dog.
NT: Mine's the organ player from the Animals.
MC: You mean Alan Price?
NT: Yeah!
HH: And what's yours, Rudy (to MC)?
MC: Mine's a domesticated Alan Price.
NT: That's the Alan Price you pay.
RT: Who is your greatest influence as a band?
NT: Roy Orbison.
JP: I concur.
NT: Sam Cooke.
HH: And Glen Danzig.
NT: And Glen Gould.
MC: Eric Burton.
HH: And Elliot Gould. Have you seen The Long Goodbye? The opening scene.
MC: The catfood scene?
HH: That's probably the biggest influence.
JP: What a great apartment.
NT: And Cats the musical, and "Dr. Cats" the cartoon.
HH: Dr. Zhivago, not "Dr. Who", that confuses me.
NT: And not the Who.
RT: Studio performance vs. performing live? What's the difference?
HH: Clothing and happies.
NT: Temperature and applause.
RT: Speaking of temperature how do you like Houston/Texas/Rice?
JP: It's very humid here.
HH: I wanna go to the death museum.
NT: It is hot here. Two-fourths of us were in Toronto, or four-eighths of us were in Toronto, I should say.
MC: Or ... one-half of us.
HH: Oh. Einstein. Break it down. Super simple.
NT: He has a beautiful mind, we don't want to get into it.
HH: Yes it might crack.
NT and HH: Might crack. Mike Crack, that's his name. Mike Crack.
RT: I'm not going to ask questions about the "Arrested Development" movie that is supposedly coming out soon.
MC: Well you don't need to, I'll just talk about my career. All the various facets ...
HH: You know this is our last show with Michael right? He's quitting.
RT: Why are you quitting?
NT: We firing him let's be real.
MC: I don't like these types of interviews, I don't like this vibe.
HH: You guys got the last taste.
MC: Personality clash, I have to hide behind eyeglasses.
NT: You guys should check out Steal This Movie.
MC: Steal This Movie ... does that answer your question? They just asked my to play with them because the three of them recorded without a bass player so they someone to play bass when they played live.
RT: You guys all have other projects and bands you worked on before this, can you talk about ...
NT: Cornwall? Just giving a shout out.
JP: I sometimes play for Modest Mouse, and I have a band called Robot Horse, and that's it. Mister Heavenly. I think that's it for now. On paper.
NT: But in the cloud, you're big on the cloud computing.
JP: I do work with the Silver Wizard.
RT: What is the Silver Wizard?
JP: This guy named John Goff? Who plays with neurosis and he's a synth weirdo. And we play together.
RT: And how does it relate to cloud computing?
JP: He just sent me something to listen to this morning.
NT: I'm playing with the Philosopher Kings, doing an upcoming tour in May. And then in April, I've got an Our Lady Peace mini tour, we're just doing the east coast of the Mediterranean. And then in June, I'm going to be doing a Tragically Hip kind of opening slot.
MC: It's been so long since you've done that.
HH: I was a big WWI fan, just like historian style. That's how I first came across Joseph, because he kind of reminded me of a WWI trench hero.
MC: You were googling WWI lookalikes.
HH: Yeah yeah yeah, and I saw a photograph of Joseph.
NT: And we met actually at the Rotorouter convention, who are number one in the number two business, that's our slogan.
MC: The brown sound.
HH: Rudy —
NT: Can't fail.
MC: Well I just love having a good time.
NT: Which is a lie. He's miserable.
MC: And Rice College, is where I was going if I was at the right age.

Ultrabook™ devices now hold a piece of history. Thanks to a three-year partnership between Intel and Replay Games, Top Shot, one of History Channel's most popular reality TV shows, is a realistic experience for users running Microsoft Windows* 8 on Ultrabook devices. Already a popular download for iOS*, the Windows 8 version of Top Shot is the most lifelike yet.
According to Paul Trowe, founder and president of Replay Games, porting Top Shot to Windows 8 using the Intel AppUp® SDK has enabled it to tap into the sensors that are shipped in today's Ultrabook and tablet devices. And Intel was there at every stage of development. "Intel collaborated with Replay to implement touch and accelerometer support for Top Shot," said Trowe, an industry veteran whose credits include King's Quest*, Mech Warrior*, and Grand Theft Auto*. "Intel produced sample code ready to be dropped into the Unity* engine. Replay then integrated Top Shot with Intel's code for touch and accelerometer." Customers can now access the app from the Intel AppUp® center and download it to their Windows 8 devices.
Still highly popular going into its fifth season, the Top Shot TV show splits 16 contestants into two teams of eight, which compete in various shooting contests until only one shooter remains. Players vie for a top prize of USD $100,000 and the right to be called "Top Shot."
In each round of shooting, players are presented with targets to aim and shoot at, with points awarded for accuracy and timing. All the guns from the show are present in the app. The experience of steering the selected gun's crosshairs at a target is enhanced with motion sensors now available on the latest Intel-powered Ultrabooks and tablets. "You aim by moving the device around the real world looking for targets," explained Trowe. "This is perfect for the Ultrabook and tablets," he said. For Ultrabook devices, buttons at the lower right and left corners of the keyboard control the trigger, the reloading, and the gun's scope, while tablets with touch-enabled screens accept direct input from thumbs.
The Windows 8 version takes advantage of the capabilities of Intel® HD Graphics, which allows faster performance at higher resolutions than handheld versions while producing a smooth frame rate for gameplay. By using the Intel® Compiler, Trowe said Replay's developers were able to increase gameplay performance by 10 percent. "That's a lot!" said Trowe.
Introducing the Intel Compiler into Replay's workflow was simple, according to Trowe.
"We didn't have to rewrite anything. We simply re-imported the source tree and recompiled; there was an immediate performance increase on the Intel® chipset."
—Paul Trowe, founder and president, Replay Games
Trowe said he spotted the trend toward touch-sensitivity in systems about 10 years ago and has been building touch-based applications for the last four years.
"You have to adapt the design of your application to utilize the new interface. Some engines, such as Unity, have a plug-in called EZ GUI*, from Above and Beyond Software, which enables touch to enhance the user experience on the screen. Other developers make their own user interface to implement touch. As time progressed, we slowly adapted our designs to incorporate more functionality for devices and, to be honest, touch was an easy one."
