Readership: Psychologists (clinical, developmental, and those interested in emotion); neurologists; neuroscientists, educationalists, philosophers, those living with Möbius and their friends and family
Jonathan Cole, Consultant in Clinical Neurophysiology, Poole Hospital, Visiting Professor at CoPMRE, University of Bournemouth and Visiting Senior Lecturer, Clinical Neurosciences, University of Southampton, UK, and Henrietta Spalding, Head of Professional Development at 'Changing Faces', London, UK
"We face people every daybut what if a rare congenital malady deprives a child of the power to smile or frown, to have any facial expression whatever? Dr Cole is an expert on this condition, and, along with Henrietta Spalding, who grew up with Möbius Syndrome herself, he presents the life stories of people with this neurological conditionand the varied ways in which they cope and adapt. Cole writes vividly, but with delicacy and sympathy, combining deeply personal portraits with pioneering scientific insight." - Oliver Sacks
"Möbius Syndrome is a rare condition that deprives its victims of something we all take for granted: the ability to express our emotions through facial expression. It is important to know more about this condition for human as well as scientific reasons. Jonathan Cole, who is the medical authority on Möbius, and Henrietta Spalding, who knows Möbius first hand, provide the best guide yet to the problem in a direct and readable text." - Antonio Damasio

The truest service a private man may hope to do his country is, by unbiassing his mind as much as possible. [Swift, "The Sentiments of a Church of England Man with respect to Religion and Government," 1708]

Travel Leaders RI's professional agents help day-trippers explore exciting destinations for business and pleasure. The bus trip includes a full day in New York City, with plenty of time to explore the Big Apple and the Feast of San Gennaro itself, where an expected one million people celebrate Italian-American culture, the splendor of good walking shoes, and the patron saint of Naples. The 55-passenger air-conditioned bus, which plies passengers with a restroom and reclining seats, rolls out of the Cranston at 6:00 a.m. for a nonstop 3.5-hour journey to New York City and its non-hot-dog-related spoils.
A plethora of mock-rock climbing challenges populates The Spot Bouldering Gym with 10,000 square feet of vertical obstacles. Rock climbers can spend all day scaling man-made mountains up to 18 feet high, gripping massive boulders made in the image of Hueco, Fontainebleau, and Abraham Lincoln's nose. Other trials include the gravity-fighting 25-foot roped wall, an assortment of muscle-mightying training equipment, and cushy flooring for seamless dismounts. No experience is necessary to tackle the upright obstacles at The Spot; the congenial crew eagerly shares climbing tips and creates encouraging victory pyramids.
As the sun begins to dip below the skyline, the Providence River's surface flares up, tinged with its flickering glow. In the hazy sunset light, a gondola emerges cutting through the still water's surface, though it's just as easy to hear as it is to see; as it glides down the river, the boat wafts strains of song from its live accordion accompanist. Led by owner Marcello, La Gondola's group of gondoliers row with the mission to only furnish passengers with romantic sojourns and to celebrate the riverfront and the city's Italian ties. Each of his Venice-built gondolas gleams with intricately wrought ornaments and solid brass trim, and at 36 feet, they comfortably hold a gondolier, guests, an accompanying musician, and the occasional hitchhiking tugboat captain.Each gondola trip his company takes gets Marcello's custom touch, as he tailors every trip to passengers' desires. "No matter who you are," he says, "we strive to make you feel like the queen and king of the river." In agreement with many other residents, Marcello considers Waterplace Park a city hub: "If the park is the heart of the city, the river is the lifeblood," he says. He hopes the rebirth of the local riverfront parallels a local renaissance for gondoliering as well, which inspired him to plan the inaugural Gondolympics in May.
Greenside Skate Park, Rhode Island's only indoor skate park, boasts 12,000 square feet of ramps, quarter pipes, lips, stairs, and rails that encourage skaters of all skill levels to roll to new heights. The all-day pass nets board-hoppers admission to the park's 3 p.m.–6 p.m. and 6 p.m.–9 p.m. sessions, during which they can test the waters of Greenside's spacious bowl, grind away hours on wood and concrete ramps, or practice tricky drop-ins in the antigravity chamber, all the while protectively padded with provided safety equipment. During the five-day camp, first-aid-certified counselors group boarders by ability and age, then guide them through skating-related activities from 9:45 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Each day kicks off with stretches and warm-ups, preparing rollers for two total hours of instructional skate time, an hour of free skate, an included lunch, a contest and prize session, and a discussion on the etiquette of midair tea parties.
At Fitness Together, getting fit involves getting focused and fired up to achieve. Here, certified personal trainers guide clients of all skill levels through motivating boot-camps and exercise programs designed to meet goals loftier than a giraffe's basketball hoop. To help their charges torch calories and tone muscles as efficiently as possible, the trainers incorporate evidence-based training methods, such as intervals, tempos, and fartlek, into each fitness regimen. Filled with cardio challenges and resistance training, workouts are tailored to individual needs and paired with nutrition tips that help the body build lean muscle. In-studio sessions take place in a private, spa-like studio, flush with energizing red walls and functional training tools such as medicine balls, kettlebells, and gymnastics rings.
A comprehensive guide to attractions and things to do.

Take the HX-WA10 underwater as deep as 3 meters for up to 60 minutes, and get some great photos or videos in a pool or the ocean. Swim along with tropical fish, capture shots of a beautiful coral reef, or get action footage of a friend snorkeling. Waterproofing also means you can shoot in the rain or snow with no worries. *IEC60529 IPX8 (This does not guarantee no destruction, no malfunction, or waterproofing in all conditions).
Even with its light weight and slim design, the HX-WA10 renders images in breathtaking, Full-HD (1920x1080px) beauty. BSI (Backside Illumination) sensor technology has improved the sensitivity of the CMOS sensor, making it possible to shoot images with high-resolution Full-HD quality even in dimly lit areas.
The HX-WA10 shoots 16-megapixel high-resolution still pictures. Depending on the situation, you can flexibly shoot either high-quality photos or videos by using only the thumb to press the desired button, without having to change modes.. You can also capture 2-megapixel still images while recording a video by simply pressing the Still button.*
*Varies depending on the Video mode used for shooting.
In addition to an optical 5x zoom, the New High-Quality Image Engine of the HX-WA10 lets you shoot videos with a maximum 12x Advanced Zoom with no image quality degradation.* You get a flexible shooting range, from wide-angle to dynamic zooming.
*Only for video recording at 30p. When shooting photos, the maximum zoom is 5x.
With both phtos & videos, iA (Intelligent Auto functions) makes it easy for you to capture beautiful images. Intelligent Scene Selector analyzes shooting situation and automatically switches the camera to the suitable scene mode. Face Detection automatically senses the ambient lighting and adjusts the exposure accordingly, so faces are bright and easy to see, and E.I.S. (Electrical Image Stabilizer) helps to correct hand-shake blurring. *The functions included in iA may not be applied when conditions do not call for them.

Meningitis outbreak causes concern
Local health care providers say no worries in this area
Though concern is growing nationwide on the recent outbreak of fungal meningitis, no cases have been reported to date in Illinois, according to Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health.
Locally, representatives of Perry Memorial Hospital in Princeton and St. Margaret's Health in Spring Valley have responded to concerns of area residents about the meningitis outbreak.
In a statement issued Monday, Rex Conger, president/CEO of Perry Memorial Hospital, said the hospital wanted to calm any local concerns regarding the national reports about patients who may have received a steroid injection linked to the recent outbreak of a form of meningitis, with that medication coming from a Massachusetts pharmacy. Perry Memorial has never purchased steroid medications from the pharmacy in question, Conger said.

Everybody loves Lego. It's possibly the most warmly regarded brand on the planet. I can hear that unmistakable rummaging of a thousand pieces of plastic as I write this sentence. Ah, bliss.
Lego's online strategy and how it can improve its social reach has been discussed on this blog before, and it looks as if Lego is now making huge strides in its sociability with the crowdsourcing site Lego CUUSOO.
According to Brickipedia, the brilliantly named Lego Wiki, the word cuusoo when translated loosely from Japanese means to 'wish something into existence'. This really is the perfect way to describe Lego's crowdsourcing initiative.

Whether comments are made on a blog, or spread across the social web, every business wants customers to make a (positive) noise about them.
But while they are great for increasing engagement, comments come with problems of their own.
In a week which has seen YouTube finally take steps to clean out the well of eternal torment that it uses as a comment section, and Popular Science is doing away with the chatter altogether, I thought it would be a good opportunity to look at the various systems in place around the web designed to keep us talking...

Social customer service gets more interesting by the day. Increasingly, customers demand it, and brands can benefit from answering questions publicly.
Our Social Times recently published some reflections on social media monitoring for customer service. I've taken some of the tips from Ronan Gillen, Community and Social CS Manager at eBay, and listed them below for your convenience.

Real-time customer service and in turn, marketing, are hard to achieve. The first step is acknowledgement of what Generation Y is actually doing to your market.
I attended Social CRM 2013 last week, hosted by Our Social Times. From some of the talks I got this feeling: we're still on a long hike towards transparency in business, but there's no doubt lots of companies are striding out.
In this post I wanted to collate some of my highlights of the conference. Social media isn't the only thing changing business, but it's a useful crucible in which we can see the spark of emerging values.
Creating value for customers, supporting them fully, and being an interesting brand are challenges which, of course, persist.
by Ben Davis 15 July 2013 10:11am 1 comment
Customer service has evolved. Instead of returning to a store or calling a helpline, people are increasingly turning to social media to resolve their gripes.
So it's perhaps no surprise, then, that 80% of companies plan to use social media for customer service.
And when you hit that sweet spot and create a well-oiled social customer service machine, the pay-off is huge: 71% of customers recommend a brand that gives them a 'quick and effective' response on social media.
Here's a list of important things to consider.

'ELI5' is a subreddit, a stream on the content behemoth Reddit. And it's an amazing example of community in action, one that's been taken to a new level by the people running Reddit recently, with a small move that should be front of mind for any brand attempting to build a community.

In the second of her three reports, Digital Tribes II: Community Culture, released today, Saur describes the difference between community and audience building, and outlines specific tools for developing and strengthening a community through techniques such as creating shared narratives, values, belief systems, and ritual.
The following is an overview written by Saur outlining the second part of her series.

Sometimes, those working in and around social media every day can forget just how much many, if not most, of the population may take the internet for granted.
Especially teens and tweens, who, posting from the safety and security of their own bedrooms, can feel free to say, do and broadcast what they like without worrying too much about the consequences.

This is an open letter to the SEO community.
This post has been on my mind for quite some time but after visiting ThinkVisibility on Saturday I felt it was ready to be written today.
Obviously as the owner of an infographic agency I have a vested interest in the debate, but hopefully my arguments will still hold up despite any bias I may have.
At ThinkVisibility I twice encountered what appears to be a growing sentiment amongst some in the SEO community: that infographics are just the latest fad in SEO linkbuilding and one that any PR/SEO worth his or her salt should avoid.

In 1996 the Historic Houses Trust was asked to manage Government House. The aim was to support the Governor and to enable the house to be used by the State Government and charitable organisations, as well as enabling the general public to enjoy this very special place. Since then we have managed Government House as a busy 'working State House' rather than a museum 'frozen in time'.
Every year around 10,000 people attend nearly 250 Vice Regal functions. Since 1996 nearly 2 million people have visited the house and gardens, including attendance at approximately 750 community and charitable events and over 500 cultural events. The Federal Government has also hosted international events such as the Asia Pacific Economic Co-operation (APEC) Leaders Meeting in 2007 and the Official Welcome for Pope Benedict XVI in 2008.
In October 2011 the Premier Barry O'Farrell announced that the Governor would return to Government House to live, with the house and grounds remaining open to the public under the current arrangements. Read the Guidebook.

Did not like having 9 room mates, I do not drink, they do, and smelled the room up, every night. Saw man using hands to grab sugar and put on toast, thought that was gross then he coughed on the jellies for toast, could not eat there after that. but the place was great, and yes, I would go back, but to a 4 bed room for sure!

Bring your own towels if not you have to pay to rent it. For breackfast, just hot water to take with tea or a sachet that it has pouder milk and achicoria, bread to make toast and some strange mermelade, that seems gum. "

What is Pitocin?
Oxytocin is a natural hormone that causes the uterus to contract.
Oxytocin is used to induce labor or strengthen labor contractions during childbirth, and to control bleeding after childbirth. Oxytocin is also used to stimulate uterine contractions in a woman with an incomplete or threatened miscarriage.
Oxytocin may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
In This Section:
What is the most important information I should know about Pitocin (Oxytocin)?
You should not receive this medication if you have ever had an allergic reaction to oxytocin.
Before you receive oxytocin, tell your caregivers if you have genital herpes, diabetes, high blood pressure, a heart rhythm disorder, or if you have ever had cervical cancer, a severe uterine infection, or surgery (including a C-section) on your cervix or uterus. Also tell your caregivers if you have ever had difficult labor because you have a small pelvis, if your pregnancy is less than 37 weeks, or if you have had 5 or more pregnancies.
Tell your doctor about all other medicines you use, especially cough or cold medicine, medicines that contain caffeine (such as migraine headache medicine), or a stimulant such as ADHD medication.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Pitocin (Oxytocin)?
You should not receive this medication if you have ever had an allergic reaction to oxytocin.
To make sure oxytocin is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have:
- genital herpes
- diabetes
- high blood pressure
- a heart rhythm disorder
- a history of cervical cancer
- a history of severe infection in your uterus
- a history of difficult labor because you have a small pelvis
- if you have ever had surgery on your cervix or uterus (including a prior C-section)
- if your pregnancy is less than 37 weeks; or
- if you have had 5 or more pregnancies

Tell your caregivers at once if you have a serious side effect such as:
- fast, slow, or uneven heart rate
- excessive bleeding long after childbirth
- headache, confusion, slurred speech, hallucinations, severe vomiting, severe weakness, muscle cramps, loss of coordination, feeling unsteady, seizure (convulsions), fainting, shallow breathing or breathing that stops; or
- dangerously high blood pressure (severe headache, blurred vision, buzzing in your ears, anxiety, confusion, chest pain, shortness of breath, uneven heartbeats, seizure)
Less serious side effects may include:
- nausea, vomiting
- runny nose, sinus pain or irritation
- memory problems; or
- more intense or more frequent contractions (this is an expected effect of oxytocin)
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.

Oxytocin is injected into a vein through an IV. You will receive this injection in a hospital setting.
Your contractions and other vital signs will be watched closely while you are receiving oxytocin. This will help your doctor determine how long to treat you with this medication.
During labor, your baby's heart rate will also be watched with a fetal heart monitor to evaluate any effects of oxytocin on the baby.
Back to TopWhat happens if I overdose on Pitocin (Oxytocin)?
Since this medication is given by a healthcare professional in a medical setting, an overdose is unlikely to occur.

- My Expirence from The Ultimate Body Transformation Stack (1 HGHPRO +1 TESTOPRO +1 GLYCOBOL) Review by Biglouie83
Review by Louis Casserino
I started about 2 weeks ago taking everyday. My diet has not changed I wanted to see what this stack would do by itself without any change in diet to see how it would work. My diet was not a clean bulk or cut diet; I decided to just eat like a normal person like I have been. Well from the get go I could feel the difference in my sleeping patterns and recovery from the HGHPro. The test and Glycobol took a few days for me to notice the effects from them but ,they have helped me lose weight and look like I have a pump.
So far to date I have lost 15 pounds and am starting to see my abs. Looking more ripped and feeling great. I would reccomend this stack to anyone that is looking for a change in their body. Stack this with a great diet and the sky is the limit. Thank you so much AI Sports Nutrition I wish I could afford more suppliments from you guys. I hope sometime next year I can run a log for you.
I will be posting pics soon at the end of this stack.
Thank you so much. (Posted on 11/13/11)

Ceremony recognizes promotions, recent hires
There's a new chief in town, officially. Steve Panger was sworn in as chief of the Superior Fire Department Thursday during a program at the Government Center that included promotions and the addition of new firefighters to the department.By: Maria Lockwood, Superior Telegram
There's a new chief in town, officially. Steve Panger was sworn in as chief of the Superior Fire Department Thursday during a program at the Government Center that included promotions and the addition of new firefighters to the department.
"We are ready to go to work to provide the high quality of services that this community expects and deserves," Panger said.
The new chief stressed the importance of a strong fire inspection program, improving the city's Insurance Services Office rating and seeking ways to replace reduced shared revenue from the state.
He noted grants the department has secured, including a $944,000 Staffing for Adequate Fire & Emergency Response grant that will increase staffing levels to 36 line firefighters into 2015, a level that hasn't been seen in Superior for 17 years.
Panger pointed out the benefits of working with businesses in public-private partnerships. Graymont purchased rope rescue equipment for the department, which will not only reduce rescue time at the company's limestone facility, but in other high elevation situations. And an investment from Enbridge was used to purchase medical equipment that saved the life of a choking victim one week after it was put into service, Panger said.
Superior firefighters respond to about 3,200 calls annually, conduct about 130 fire inspections monthly and take part in regular fire, emergency medical, rescue and hazmat training. Panger said the department will strive to work with businesses to solve problems, and asked for their help in addressing violations.
Former Mayor Dave Ross made a guest appearance. Ross, now Secretary of Department of Safety and Professional Services, recalled an incident in which police were pursuing a man with a gun on a roof. Police called on the fire department for a ladder to reach the man and Panger responded.
"Any guy that would bring a ladder to a gunfight absolutely has the kind of character to be one of the best fire chiefs that we'll have here in the city of Superior," Ross said.
Superior's last two fire chiefs, Jim Rigstad and Tad Matheson, were on hand for the ceremony.
In addition to the chief, six new firefighters were sworn in — Tim Brisbin, Steve Miner, Greg Wilson, John Lundbrg, Ben Dvorak and Gary Winters. Two of them are new hires; the other four have recently completed their probationary periods, Panger said. Promotions were also recognized. Erik Sutton and Lindzi Campbell were promoted to captains and four members of the department, Jeff Baker, Andy Knutson, Tom LeSage and Mike Hoyt, were promoted to motor pump operators.
"We are all extremely proud to be Superior firefighters," he said.

How time flies. It's been a whole year since we interviewed Peter Molyneux at the Game Developers Conference, and now here we are again, interviewing Peter Molyneux at the Game Developers Conference.
But he's got plenty more to talk about as it's been a busy 12 months for Lionhead. Last June Molyneux unveiled Milo & Kate at E3. Two months later, he revealed Fable III at gamescom. And just yesterday, he delivered a big long speech at GDC.
Afterwards, Eurogamer sat down with Molyneux for a chat. So how is Fable III coming along? How will it work with Natal? How does Molyneux think Move compares? And how long did he manage to last in the interview before mentioning the word "dog"? Read on for the answers to all these questions. Except the second one.
Eurogamer: Can you talk us through the new Fable III information you revealed in your GDC speech today?
Peter Molyneux: The big things are the GUI and the combat stuff. We talked about making it more like Street Fighter and Soul Calibur than the previous Fables, and how the old GUI was a real barrier towards people getting into some of the things that worked in Fable - but that people didn't realise worked.
In the old GUI, everything was list based. Ever since I've been doing game it's been all about 2D GUIs. We're replacing that and saying, 'Right, we cannot have a single list in the game - everything you've got must be in the world.'
That caused us to invent these things called the Guild Chambers, which you discover after playing for about 10 minutes. Slowly, you unlock different rooms in the chambers which give you different functionality.
Eurogamer: Like the dressing room?
Peter Molyneux: Yes. It's more than a dressing room, it's where all your clothes collections are. You've got literally everything from a sock drawer to a jacket drawer.
Then there's your armoury, where you collect different swords, guns and magic objects. There's also a little bit of extra crafting we're going to allow you to do within the armoury so you can enhance the weapons you've got.
We've got the treasure room, which is the place where we show off all your Achievements and we show how much gold you've got. It's really interesting because normally gold is expressed as a single number on the screen. In Fable I and II, that number just went up. Now you can physically see these piles of gold growing within your chamber. You can use Touch to pick up gold and rub it on yourself, if you so desire, which some people will really like.
Eurogamer: Is that what you like? Do you have a little treasure chest in the corner of your office at Lionhead so you can rub gold on yourself at any time?
Peter Molyneux: Absolutely, that's what I do every day. I open the treasure chest, pick it up and stuff it down my underpants. All those five and 10-pound notes.
When you first discover the gold chamber, you've got a couple of hundred gold and it's this tiny little pile in the corner of this vast chamber. When you become king, the chambers start filling up with these mountains of gold. Then, because you have all these promises you have to keep, these mountains of gold gradually dwindle away. It actually makes the feeling of wanting to be rich more impactful because you can physically see it coming in and going out.
Eurogamer: Going back to the dressing room, you revealed today that John Cleese will play the butler who picks out your clothes... How did that come about?
Peter Molyneux: The reviewers who reviewed Fable III said, 'Ah, the humour's very British, it's a bit like Monty Python.'
So we thought, 'OK, we'll just go out and get the best Monty Python team we possibly can.' This is the new world of these big franchises. You can go to people who, just a few years ago, would have looked at you like were some lunatic if you suggested they do a voiceover for your game. The cast of Fable III, of which John Cleese is a member - I don't know of another cast in any game that's as big and strong.
Eurogamer: Did you get to meet John Cleese?
Peter Molyneux: It's done in two stages. One has just been done in LA - literally last week they recorded him and that's the first stage. Because he has so many lines, once we've put all his dialogue in we'll refine it and go back, and that's when I'll get to meet him.
Eurogamer: Are you learning all his lines from the dead parrot sketch to do at him? I bet he loves that.
Peter Molyneux: I bet if I came in and started doing the silly walk, I'd really endear myself to him...
Eurogamer: Is anyone filming this meeting? Peter Molyneux vs. John Cleese, could be a six-part series...
Peter Molyneux: He is a very iconic character. I'm quite nervous about meeting him. He's got this very bizarre sense of humour and he's had a really interesting life and you know, this amazing iconic thing of Fawlty Towers - what do you say to a guy like that?
Eurogamer: "Will you be in my game?", apparently.
Peter Molyneux: How can I direct someone like John Cleese? 'Can you be a bit more silly, please?' It will be interesting.
Eurogamer: Going back to the new GUI...
Peter Molyneux: So before, it really was the case that people didn't change their clothes because they couldn't be arsed to go in and scroll through the lists. We realised you could get to the thing you wanted far, far quicker if we put it in the world rather than in a 2D list. And the length of time it takes to get to the 3D interface is shorter than it took to get to the 2D interface.
Then you've got the dog there...
Eurogamer: Let's just do a time check: you managed to go eight minutes and 34 seconds without mentioning the dog. That's quite good.
Peter Molyneux: That's how long into this interview before I mentioned the dog, is it?
Eurogamer: Yes. I think that's a new record. Although you did manage to get through 11 minutes of your speech this morning without using the word "dog".
Peter Molyneux: Haha! That's very well timed.
[Lionhead combat specialist, Josh Atkins, sitting in the background: "We should start doing that at work."]
The new dog is all about Touch for me. That's been a hard one to get through. Because I could have gone in and said, "Hey, let's have touching people," and when you work with a team it's like a force of will to sell it to them. "We don't want to do Touch," you know...
Eurogamer: Are they like, "Oh come on Peter, is this another one of your mental harebrained schemes?"
Peter Molyneux: Yes, it is. That's exactly it.
It's one thing to have a mechanic where you can go and touch things, but how are you going to use that to make me feel like this is something really important? It's only when we started realising that dragging people to their doom and throwing people in your dungeon actually feels so much more emotionally engaging.
Eurogamer: When I interviewed you at the last Game Developers Conference, you promised there were "three enormously big things that will surprise and shock you" about Fable III. Have you revealed them all yet?
Peter Molyneux: Touch is definitely one of them. The emotion of Touch, having these expressions, is definitely one. The Ruling section, the journey to rule and being king, that's the second one. I've yet to do the third one.
Eurogamer: So... Are you saving it for E3?
Peter Molyneux: If I had my way it would be today.
Eurogamer: That's what you said last year.
Peter Molyneux: Well I know, but I have to obey my lords and masters, otherwise I would just let it burst out. But not to give anything away, there's lots of really good stuff about co-op stuff, which is interesting. There are some nice cute things that we're doing just prior to launch. And obviously we've got new things like Natal to talk about as well. So I think all of that is going to come in one big lump, probably at E3.
Eurogamer: I recall asking you if one of the big three things was a cat or a parrot...
Peter Molyneux: Yes, we didn't do the cat or the parrot.
Eurogamer: I've got a new theory: two dogs. Is the third thing the fact that you get two dogs?
Peter Molyneux: I can tell you now, you will definitely see two dogs in Fable III.
Eurogamer: So does your dog have puppies?
Peter Molyneux: I didn't say puppies. I am being cheeky by saying two dogs, but it is two dogs. Two dogs and they will be sniffing in the way that dogs sniff. It's just who owns the other dog that's the interesting thing.
Eurogamer: So just to recap, in Fable III you can shove gold down your pants, sniff a dog's bottom and perform grinding American man hugs, as you said in your speech. This game sounds amazing. 10 out of 10.
Peter Molyneux: Haha! Yes, 10 out of 10 right there for those original features. What I said about the rabbits, though, and your dog, that's more exciting actually. There's a lot of play on rabbits and the fact your dog completely loses it around rabbits. It's going to make you laugh a lot.
Eurogamer: You've also been showing off the overhead map today. When you look at the game like that it almost looks like an RTS...
Peter Molyneux: It does, but don't think you're going to be sending troops and making tanks and all of that stuff - you're not. You're going to be able to feel like, 'This is my kingdom. OK, what's happening over there?' I've got to be careful of spoilers but there are some functionalities we haven't talked about, within the ruling section, which make that really important.
You're not going to be suddenly playing an RTS game, it's still very much an action adventure. It just so happens that if you are ruling Albion you need to see this map and have a feeling of what's going on. You will be able to do things like set taxes, and you will be able to see things going wrong - that's important.
Eurogamer: How concerned are you about the move away from RPG to action-adventure? Don't you risk alienating some of the series' fans?
Peter Molyneux: Yeah. I mean, I said this line about how people are going to get pissed off, and I think this is really what I was talking about. I'm a little bit worried about it but I think Fable had already made that transition already. We had tweaked the experience, we had a tenth of the numbers other role-playing games like Fallout and Dragon Age have. They've just got numbers everywhere.
Rather than saying, OK, we're an RPG but we're trying to broaden the RPG, what we're saying is we love the idea of RPGs in terms of levelling up and feeling powerful and collecting things. Those are great mechanics which you don't often see in the action-adventure category. So why not take all that stuff and then say hey, we're more like action-adventure than we are RPG?
I'm not saying we're not going to have all that cool stuff from RPGs. I'm saying that if you were to describe this as the first Fable to the press, you probably wouldn't say it's an RPG - you would probably say it's an action-adventure.
Eurogamer: What's the thinking behind the changes to the combat system?
Peter Molyneux: We're going back to games like Soul Calibur and Street Fighter, and saying, 'What makes those games such great fighting games? Why can't we have that sort of validity and smoothness?'
That again makes a game like Fable feel less like an RPG. Because traditionally RPGs are more about turn-based stuff than they are about making combat feel fluid and smooth. They're more about, OK I'm fighting with the +5 sword, rather than fighting with your own sword which has been crafted by you.
Eurogamer: Where does Natal fit into all this?
Peter Molyneux: Um... These are things I will possibly talk about later on... I mean I do think Natal does enhance the Fable experience. But you can expect us to use Natal to make you laugh and to surprise you and to give you this feeling of power.
There are some very obvious things we could do, like controlling the GUI in Natal, and it doesn't really excite me. What I want to do is give you things which really add to the Fable world. There's some cool stuff.
Eurogamer: Have you seen anything of the PlayStation Move?
Peter Molyneux: Yes, I have seen some of it. We're not really surprised, are we? I mean at E3 last year we saw they were having a wand, and that's kind of what I expected. It looks like they've taken a step forward but it's not as big a step as something like Natal, I don't think. This is purely me talking personally, but I think maybe it's slightly more a device for the core than it is for the casual market, because I think it's quite precise.
As a designer it's another one of those things I'd love to get my hands on and to play around with. As a consumer, everyone's talking about motion control now - I mean, I'm starting to get confused. It's kind of like the arms race, with the Wii MotionPlus and now the Sony Move and now I'm getting kind of confused.
Eurogamer: Is your invisible magic stick better than their magic stick?
Peter Molyneux: To be honest, it's all down to what us poor old designers do with this stuff, because all these guys do is make the hardware. Whether we utilise that hardware in a real way or whether we just take shortcuts, that's really going to be where we succeed or not.
All of this stuff is making all the designers sweat. I've met lots of designers at GDC and we're all very bleary eyed at the moment because every rule we've got, we're having to throw away. We haven't got buttons any more - we've got motions and arms legs and faces, and that really is tough.
I don't think the first wave of these motion control titles will be what you expect. Just as with every hardware chain, it's the second wave where they usually come up with stuff that's interesting. So the second wave could be really cool.
Fable III is due out for Xbox 360 later this year.

Wow, awesome post, it really opened my eyes. Thank you.

Thanks, Quentin.
- Christine said...
Heeeeeyyyyy! ;o))) This story sounds familiar!!!! Great post Brian.
- Brian McD said...
Hey Christine,
I thought you'd notice you were the "young student". I was wondering what took you so long to mention it.
Thanks for the comment too. - 11:04 AM
- Elise Stephens said...
This is encouraging. Brian, your words about the "who" being fellow writers and creatives who are in my circle right now is eye-opening because I definitely thought the "It's who you know" phrase was all about meeting the "big shot important" people who had already been very successful.
This is a great distinction. And it's also true that the more serious I get about writing and publishing, the more I meet likeminded individuals. - 2:05 PM
- Tanya said...
Brian - I was lucky enough to be friends with your girlfriend in 1986/87 when I was a freshman at Otis Parsons in LA. You were hilarious and a great person to know and you gave me a couple of really fantastic bragging rights. You took us to see Paul Feig do stand-up at the Ed Wynn Lounge and you took us to see Jerry Seinfeld, too. Also, one of my favorite jokes I stole from you and use to this day is, "Hey, there goes the real life ... Andy Samberg, Lassie, Tina Fey, whoever" when you saw someone walking down the street who vaguely resembled the celebrity. I've been wanting to thank you for years and years. Glad you are still writing, still funny and have a blog! - Tanya
- Brian McD said...
Hey Tanya,
Sorry for the delay in getting back. So nice to hear from you! We had a great time back then.
I'm glad you remember seeing Paul back then. Chances are you saw Don't Quite Your Day Job too. That was Dave "Gruber" Allen, Dave and Steve Higgins. And possibly Andy Kindler. We were all Ed Wynn Comedy Lounge comics at the same time. And I hung with the Higgins Boys and Gruber (as they came to be called) a lot back then
And that Seinfeld thing was great too. Fun. That was an early HBO special for him, as I recall. That was years before he had a show or anything.
Glad you remember me as funny. All I remember is how good Paul was compared to the rest of us back then. I kinda' wish he had stayed doing stand-up as well as his other stuff. He used to do an impression of his shop teacher from high school that brought the house down. At least all the comics loved it and when he was on stage we would chant, "shop teacher, shop teacher!" Don't know if that happened the time you saw him.
Glad you still use that joke.
Thank you, Tanya, for such a nice note! It to was nice of you to thank me, though I'm not sure what for. We were just friends hanging out and having a good time.
I won't bore people any longer reminiscing about things they weren't around for.
Thanks too for getting a hold of me.
I will email you so we can catch up.
-- Brian

The Swords
After the group kills the Troll's trying to eat them, they go to their cave where they find a collection of Elf swords. Gandalf gives Bilbo a magic Elf sword that glows when Orcs/Trolls are near.
The Elf City
Later in the film after escaping from the Orcs the group finds themselves in the Elf city. They share a dinner with the Elfs, where they hear stories and names about the swords they found.
Bilbo pulls out his sword, but a Dwarf sitting beside him tells him to put it away, because it was to small to have a story.
What was the name of Bilbo's sword, and what was it's story?

TOPEKA - Thirteen Kansas educators achieved first-time certification from the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) in 2011, according to an announcement from NBPTS this week.
For immediate release December 8, 2011
Kathy Toelkes, Director of Communications, 785-296-4876 Thirteen Kansas educators receive National Board certification TOPEKA - Thirteen Kansas educators achieved first-time certification from the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) in 2011, according to an announcement from NBPTS this week. National Board Certification is recognized nationwide as a model for identifying accomplished teaching practice. A study by the National Research Council found that students taught by National Board Certified Teachers (NBCT) make higher gains on achievement tests than students taught by other teachers. In order to achieve NBCT status, teachers must meet licensing and experience eligibility requirements and submit an extensive portfolio of their teaching practice, as well as demonstrate content knowledge through a series of assessments. In addition to the newly certified teachers, 21 Kansas teachers were recertified in 2011. A list of newly certified teachers and recertified teachers is included below.

Rob looked out at the rolling scenery. Even though the land was relatively flat here, the height of the trees still varied to some hidden metric, growing shorter, sparser, and browner here, bursting out in green splendor there. One of the best ways to measure long term anol levels was to look at how the ecosystem was effected. One of the mysteries of how it functioned was the way it seemed to have levels, as the anthropic effect warred with random mutations that caused cancer or cell death.
On the miles long ride to the research center, Rob took full advantage of his first opportunity to really see the effect up close. He frequently referred to the heavily notated materials in his lap, and the anolmeter and biologic badge. He watched the average readings slowly tick up, swaying with the terrain outside.
In the jeep were two people returning to base, himself, and another new recruit. Halfway through the drive, one of them had turned around and had to given each of them their new biologic badges. They were probably the most direct application of genetic engineering they had produced so far. A square, black badge with nine wells with reflective backing, they wells were filled with a species of genetically engineered bacteria, with a fluorescent protein introduced into their genome at the wrong place. Under normal circumstances, the individual wells would be dark. However, as the anol level rises, the error would be corrected, and the wells would start to glow. It was in no way foolproof, but in conjunction with several other methods, it could give a very good idea of the relative activity.
Rob turned to the guy next to him, the new recruit. Genetic engineering, right? What are you going to work on all the way out at the station? Im going to be charting the anol, finding the specimens you guys like to pick apart.
