THE MAROON "For a Greater Loyola ESTABLISHED 1923 VOL. 76 NO. 20 Loyola University New Orleans FRIDAY, MARCH 27, 1998 Loyola offers voluntary pension By MICHAEL GIUSTI News Editor The time has come for a decision. Should employees opt to take a pension, or should they work? Loyola is offering a voluntary pension plan to all fulltime employees over age 55 who have worked enough continious years at Loyola. That is determined by adding the years worked at Loyola to that employee's age. If that number is at least 80, the employee is eligible. This plan will give those who choose to take it a full year's salary plus one week's salary for every year they have worked up to 52 years. Accepting early retirement will have no effect on an employee's eligibility for the various retirement plans, Eckholdt said. The pension will be paid out over three payments. A cap of $3 million has been set for the plan. A seniority system will be established to resolve conflicts if more people accept the plan. About 50 faculty members and 30 OUT WITH THE OLD WHO'S ELIGIBLE? Full-time faculty and staff whose age added to the number of years worked at Loyola equals 80. WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME? Loyola employees who take advantage of the retirement plan would get a year's salary plus one week's pay for every year worked for up to 52 years. Details of the voluntary severence plan developed by Loyola. WHAT'S IN IT FOR LOYOLA? Older, higher-paid employees can be replaced by younger, lower-paid employees. The plan would help the university cut $1.5 million from next year's budget because some positions will not be replaced. HOW MUCH WILL IT COST? A cap of $3 million has been set for the voluntary pension plan. Loyola to reduce to 120 hour standard By ELIZABETH STUART Editorial Editor Students at Loyola may graduate a little earlier now — but only if Kevin Casey agrees. The Student Government Association passed a resolution Tuesday saying students should no longer need to cram their semesters to graduate in four years with 128 or more hours. The resolution suggests each college adopt a 120-hour requirement to graduate. It also said Loyola needs to adopt the 120-hour standard to remain competitive, as long as quality isn't sacrificed. Casey, biology/pre-med senior and SGA president, said he is seriously considering vetoing the resolution, which Loyola without interim dean as Brazier leaves By AUGUST SMITH Staff writer Mary Brazier will step down as interim associate dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the end of July. She had been acting as associate dean of the college since Claire Paolini left at the end of last year for a position at another university. A new interim associate dean will be selected for a one-year term so that the new dean, still to be selected, can pick an associate. Robert Rowland, outgoing dean of arts and sciences, sent out a letter on March 12 to all faculty and staff inviting them to submit nominations and applications by April 1. Rowland, David Danahar, provost The canine unit of the New Orleans Police Department demonstrates its prowess as Officer Joe Bouvier frisks Officer Gary Lee, posing as a criminal and surrounded by padding. Attack dog Andy chased Lee down in a mock escape at the Night Out Against Crime held in the Peace Quad on Tuesday evening. When Lee tried to make a run for it, Andy leapt to his feet, darted after the lumbering Lee and sunk his teeth into the leg of Lee's protective suit. Andy's valiant actions are just part of his daily job as a police dog and Bouvier's partner. —mm —sga 11 .■ sm m - ■■ 1 i— Staff photo by SARAH BARNETT Weathers survives Mount Everest, will deliver Father Carter lecture By SARAH BARNETT Photo Editor Susan Sarandon, Robert Kennedy Jr. and Beck Weathers. These people all have one thing in common: They have received or will receive more than $10,000 to speak at Loyola. Beck Weathers, who survived a nearfatal blizzard while climbing Mount Everest in May 1996, will speak about his life and threatening struggle on the mountain in the third installment of the Student Government Association's Father Carter Lecture Series. The lecture will take place April 15 at 7:30 p.m. in Roussel Hall. The Father Carter Lecture Series was created three years ago, when the Rev. James Carter, S.J., resigned from his 20-year stint as university president. The series aims "to secure a speaker that will embody the values held by Father Carter and the Jesuit order." Kevin Casey, biology/pre-med senior and SGA president, said Weathers represents the lecture's mission. "I think that if you had to choose between bringing in a big name that doesn't follow the mission statement versus maybe not a big name that does follow the mission statement, I'd rather stick with the mission statement," he said. For the first time, the University Programming Board will join SGA in sponsoring this year's lecture. Both UPB and SGA contributed $5,000 to the project. Byron Gast, communications sophomore and UPB ideas and issues chairman, heads the lecture series committee composed of faculty, students and alumni. The committee agreed that Weathers was the strongest name on the list of possible speakers. Gast said Weathers was different from the other speakers because he faced a lifethreatening experience. "He says he is giving a lecture about something that changed his life, so that he can change lives," he said. WEATHERS Scaled peaks of Mount Everest, nearly died. Groups help in recycling cans, paper By JACKIE WILNEFF Assistant News Editor Many people buy recycled products every day without realizing it, and eight years ago, Loyola students started taking an interest in recycling and using recycled products. What followed were several attempts at student-run recycling programs. The first group to promote aluminumcan recycling on Loyola's campus was the biology honor society. Beta Beta Beta. The group collected cans only in Monroe Hall, and its profits paid for costs. When Beta Beta Beta decided to end its recycling program, the Loyola University Sociology Student Organization picked up the slack in 1992. Under Anthony Ladd, associate sociology professor and former LUSSO adviser, LUSSO continued with recycling bins placed only in Monroe but within a year had expanded the program across campus. LUSSO helped pay for its program by See RETIRE, Pg. 5 See HOURS, Pg. 3 See RECYCLE.

Bachelor of Science in Biology The bachelor of science in biology curriculum insures a solid foundation in the fundamentals of life science while allowing students to pursue specific areas of interest through three tracks. BS biology recipients are prepared for careers in business, industry, and government or for advanced degree programs in biological or biomedical fields.
Bachelor of Science in Biology, Biomedical Sciences TrackThe biomedical sciences track is designed for students seeking to continue their education in a medical, optometry, veterinary medicine, chiropractic, dental, or other medically related professional school and for those who will pursue graduate programs in any biomedical science, including microbiology, immunology, anatomy, physiology, biotechnology, molecular biology, and other areas. Although most recipients of this degree continue on to graduate or professional programs, careers as research technicians and in other areas are possible without further schooling. Bachelor of Science in Biology, Ecology/Environmental Biology TrackThe ecology/environmental biology track is designed for students interested in field biology, zoology, botany, ecology, environmental science, or any other area of life science related to the interaction of living things with their natural surroundings. This track is based on a philosophical commitment to relate modern life science to economic, environmental, and societal concerns. Students completing this degree can pursue careers in environmental science or related areas or can continue their education in graduate programs in ecology, evolutionary biology, environmental science, zoology, botany, and other related areas. Bachelor of Science in Biology, General Biology TrackThe general biology track is designed for students interested in broad intellectual foundation in life science who do not want to limit their educational experience to focusing on the disciplines covered in the other tracks. While providing this fundamental base, the track also allows the latitude for students to pursue courses in particular areas of biology in which they have interest. Students completing this degree are prepared for careers or graduate programs in a broad range of biologically related areas. |

New Tax Cap Could Benefit Florida's Rich Boaters
Filed under: Yachts & Sailing, Wings
In Florida, yacht abandonment and repossessions are on the rise but wealthy boat owners may soon get a bit of tax relief. The Miami Herald reports that state legislators are considering a tax break on boats and planes. A bill currently moving through the Florida legislature called the Aviation and Maritime Full Employment Act would cap the sales tax on boats and planes at $25,000.
It is hoped that the bill would stimulate the economy by creating jobs. Currently many rich people avoid the sales tax by buying their expensive planes and yachts elsewhere and storing them in other states or registering them in the Cayman Islands and other places. These actions cost the state not just tax revenue but it makes it less likely that the owner will buy other related services in Florida. The Herald quotes Republican Representative Tom Grady who says: "Someone might want to beat up the rich. I don't. Anybody with capital to invest in the state of Florida, where jobs can be created, I want them here. I want their money here."
Others are saying the tax break is outrageous especially at a time when the state is contemplating raising the price of licenses and other fees that would affect a broader swath of the population. The cap could cost the the state $8.1 million annually and local government could lose $1.1 million. No number for the potential economic gain from the new bill has been forecast.

Mission and Goals Committee
The Committee on College Mission and Goals is charged with the review and revision of the mission and vision statements every three to five years as part of the strategic planning process. (Charter and By-Laws of the Council of Rhode Island College, Article XII, Section A, 1c)
The Committee welcomes campus suggestions and recommendations on the current institutional mission statements. Please note that you are not required to leave an email address, but if you do it will help the committee to follow up with you regarding your comments.
Current College Mission Statement
Rhode Island College is one of the region's leading comprehensive public colleges. Our mission is to offer accessible higher education of the finest quality to traditional and non-traditional students from around the state, the region, and beyond. Students here are members of a caring community that respects diversity and values academic excellence informed by cultural inquiry, civic engagement, and co-curricular activity. The college offers a wide variety of liberal arts, science, and professional programs in which dedicated faculty work with students to achieve the promise of higher education: an open and inquiring mind.
As you prepare to provide input, please consider some of the following points about institutional mission statements:
An institutional mission statement:
- Describes what the college is trying to do as an educational institution and what it is committed to
- Says what is important about an institution
- Is an explanation of what a college does, why, and for whom
- Is ideally 40 to 70 words in length
An institutional mission statement is not:
- What a college does day to day
- A vision statement about the hopes for the institution
- A list of specific objectives and goals that the institution will fulfill

MLK Campus-Wide Celebration
Every January, the Ithaca College community celebrates the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr through a series of programs sponsored by the Office of Student Engagement & Multicultural Affairs.
Back in 2008, when the first day of classes fell on the national holiday, President Emerita Peggy Williams declared the first day of classes as a "Day on, not Off." The day is celebrated as a day of reflection and celebration with programs and activities in lieu of classroom instruction. President Thomas Rochon continues in this tradition, encouraging all to come together in honor or Dr. King's impact on the world. During years where the holiday falls before the first day of classes, the campus community spends the first week of classes in celebration with various events and programs, as well as discussions.
We continue this tradition on Monday, January 20, 2014, when students, staff, faculty, and community members will honor Dr. King's work by coming together to discuss the relevance of his work today.
MLK Celebration 2014:
A Single Garment of Destiny
January 20, 2014

Ryanair was, and is, famous for many reasons; cheap flights, luggage restrictions, perceived sexism, a crazy boss, a refreshing approach to PR, and the list goes on.
But perhaps Ryanair was most famous as the poster child for the upsell, and the doyen of poor UX.
All this might sound harsh, but it is thankfully all changing. Michael O'Leary has been all over Twitter recently talking about forthcoming improvements, particularly to the web, and luggage restrictions, too.
And today, via its Twitter account, Ryanair announced the first stage of its website rebuild, the homepage, is now live.

Hyatt releases its Q3 results today, so I thought I'd pre-empt the webcast and take a look at the company's digital efforts.
Is its digital marketing as good as the hotels? And how do its efforts compare to some big name competition?
It turns out Hyatt is fairly solid, online. I didn't get mad trying to use the website, and everything was easy to find, with a good mobile presence.
To take it to the next level, Hyatt would have to redesign its website to match the modern design of RoomKey or Top10.com.
It would also be great to see more rich content on the Hyatt website, rather than simply its social channels. This would allow more of the atmosphere of the hotels and the ethos of the brand to suffuse the browsing and booking process.
Let's have a look at the brand's paid, owned and earned digital content.

We were alerted to the Gatwick Airport website redesign by Matt Wilkinson, Senior Ecommerce Manager at Gatwick, in the comments on this responsive design round-up.
With responsive design riding a tidal wave of popularity and common sense, I can't think of a sector better suited than air travel.
We've all been travelling to an airport, needing to check flight times, terminals, parking arrangements, delays etc. We know airport websites have this info, but we aren't confident in navigating an old desktop site from our phones. Well, it seems Gatwick have smashed it out the park on this one.
This post isn't going to go into too much detail about why the site is great. I'll just post some annotated pictures of it, and encourage you to try it out for yourself.

Travel websites are very search-orientated, and are understandably keen to encourage visitors to key in their preferences and start their holiday search.
So, a user-friendly search interface is vital for travel sites to maximise searches and therefore bookings.
Here I look at examples from 25 popular travel websites, as well as some best practice tips for travel search.

Consumers made a total of 3.2m online searches for flights last month, and more than 17% of these were made on mobiles, which highlights the need for travel firms to optimise their sites.
According to stats from Greenlight, 'Cheap flights' was the most popular term searched for on Google UK, accounting for 17% of all flight searches, and 20% of all searches made on mobile.
So are the travel sites ranking for these terms optimising for mobile? Using the term 'cheap flights', I've been checking the top ten results...

MyCurrencyTransfer.com is a cheaper and more transparent option where founders do not want you to get short changed by high fees or excessive margins added to the real exchange rate.
High Street banks lookout, My Currency Transfer has a strong product offering on travel money and international payments.

In this post, or seamless meld of my personal and professional lives, I will highlight a few user experience blips I found when booking a holiday to Austria.
On reflection, it occurs to me we might all be over-excited about new developments online. Wearable technology and cross-channel CRM are both all over tech and digital marketing news, but how far are we from websites working to the user's satisfaction?
As progress brings more examples of 'good', the 'bad' becomes even more annoying. The whole experience of booking my holiday left me realising that one of the main benefits of package holidays remains the same: they take the hassle out of having to interact with more than one service/company in the travel sector.
None of the company websites I used were bad at all, in fact, I was impressed by OBB (Austrian Rail) and Olotels, but the cumulative effect of small user experience hiccups meant that booking tickets and accommodation filled an evening with moderate pain.
Can a holiday ever truly be 'last minute' until travel sites are optimised further? Here are the problems I faced.......

Seeing an ad outdoors has a greater impact on us than one served to our laptop or phone. We come across it, 'discover it' if you want to be properly cheesy, we trust it more, and the creative is tied to a more unique and memorable set of circumstances.
This is of course debatable; there are lots of caveats, but I believe it to be true.
Bear with me on this post, there is going to be some pontificating on a Brian Cox-esque scale (for non UK readers, he's a TV broadcaster who gets very reflective about the universe).

With Wikipedia shaking up online travel with WikiVoyage, things are already changing in this essential industry at the start of 2013. As travel becomes more and more accessable and more competitive, how marketing in this space has to become more savvy and customer centric.
But what is actually going to change and how are marketers going to shift gears in the upcoming year?

ERA, Texas - Daniel Bowles is bucking a trend.
He's a young rancher trying to grow a cattle operation while many producers are hanging up their spurs or Craigslisting their all-terrain vehicles.
But in Era, an unincorporated community in Cooke County just south of Gainesville, Bowles is following a dream he's had so long he can't remember ever not having it. A self-assured, snuff-dipping 28-year-old, Bowles believes he's the right kind of cattle producer at the right time.
Bowles is not unique, but there just aren't that many young producers like him replacing older retiring ranchers, said Stan Bevers, an agricultural economist with the Texas AgriLife Extension Service in Vernon.
The 2007 Census of Agriculture put the average age of Texas ranchers and farmers at 59, while 6 percent were under 35. And many of the older cattlemen no longer want to weather the risky environment.
Meanwhile, the high cost of land, cattle and feed, compounded by tight credit, create a formidable barrier to younger would-be ranchers building their first herds - if they don't have family land or hadn't already left for urban careers like their siblings and classmates.
A graduate of Texas Christian University's ranch management program, Bowles in a few years has built a herd of 1,000 yearlings - mainly heifers, or young females, kept for six months, then sold - and a smaller cow-calf operation with 50 breeding cows of unknown bloodlines and a spotted Charolais bull. The French breed is known to produce good crosses. His calving rate is an enviable 90 percent, meaning 9 in 10 cows produce an offspring yearly.
He also works auction barns three days a week, both as an hourly ring hand and as an independent livestock buyer for other producers. His ability to spot less-than-fit cattle earned him the nickname "the ring doctor." And he hires out to do a range of cattle chores for other producers.
The various revenue streams translated last year into a six-figure income, with about 40 percent coming from his own cattle, said Bowles as he "doctored" six freshly bought calves with various medications.
Bowles is not a scion of a Texas cattle baron dynasty. His mother was a nurse, and his father worked at the Peterbilt truck plant in Denton, taking needed parts to the assembly line. The family rarely had more than 30 cows.
But he learned cattle raising from his father and a local farmer, Jack House, for whom he worked as a teenager.
His operation is called Three Cattle Co. because, he explained, "I started with three."
"I had the 'want to' and the 'will,' but I didn't have all the knowledge," he said. He took ag courses for three years at North Central Texas College in Gainesville and hoped to attend the TCU program but didn't have the money. A wealthy Dallasite, whose horses Bowles exercised and cared for, offered him a zero-interest loan of $10,000 toward tuition and expenses, to be repaid in five years.
"I paid him back in three years."
The management course, he said, "reprogrammed my mind," allowing him to delete outdated theories while adding record-keeping skills on spreadsheets, and tips that abetted his native market savvy.
Afterward, he lived in what he described as a shanty, which broiled in summer and froze in winter. A gap below the door was big enough to allow a snowdrift to form inside one day. He lived there five years.
While he was working at a cattle auction, two ex-dairy farmers recognized Bowles' ability to judge livestock and asked him to buy 400 as a custom-order buyer. It was his first custom-buying assignment. (Such work pays about $3 a head, and he can earn $200 or more a day.)
Bowles agreed - with one condition: They had to allow him to graze his own animals on their land. He bought 74 calves, weighing an average 522 pounds. He sold them at 750 pounds, at no cost to him for the weight gain - in return for minding the landowners' herd for six months. The deal netted him nearly $16,000 on a $39,400 original investment for the cattle, aside from his buying commission.
"That was a big step for me," he said.
Generally, Bowles uses his ring job to keep an eye out for good value. Often it can come from market mistiming by city folks who might keep cattle as ranchette ornaments. "I make a lot of money out of the weekend warriors."
After shots and tagging, he keeps the calves a month, then places them with a cutting horse operation, which prefers heifers for training or competition. The operation pays Bowles nothing but takes good care of the cattle, which put on about 80 pounds apiece.
Afterward, he hands the calves over to cattle people with proven abilities and ample pasture. They receive 65 cents for every pound of weight gained. That way Bowles doesn't have to invest in more land-he owns 40 acres and leases 850. And the people who take in the calves don't have to invest savings or borrow money to acquire their own livestock, or gamble on market gyrations.
Bowles weathered the drought thanks to his varied jobs in the cattle industry and an ability to stock a pasture conservatively. He moved into a new home with air conditioning. And he plans to marry a nursing student in June.
What's more, Daniel Bowles is waiting to buy a good number of cattle at the right price-say, $1.60 a pound for an animal 300 pounds or more. Healthy ones are fetching $1.90 now.
"Right now," he said, "I think we're fixing to buy a whole lot of fat, bawling, sucking calves."

UConn evaluating athletic department
Following perhaps the most successful stretch in school history, the University of Connecticut is evaluating its athletic department. In 2011, UConn's football team played in its first BCS bowl, the men's and women's basketball team both reached the Final Four and the baseball team advanced to a super regional. However, university president Susan Herbst said in a statement that the school has begun an evaluation process. Herbst's statement was in response to a report in The Day of New London that said UConn is looking to but athletic director Jeff Hathaway out of his contract. Herbst took over the presidency in June. She said the evaluation includes academics and compliance. Earlier this year, the men's basketball program lost a scholarship and had coach Jim Calhoun suspended for three games next season as part of an NCAA punishment for recruiting violations. In May, the program lost two more scholarships due to a poor Academic Performance Rating. Basketball player Jamal Coombs-McDaniel was arrested for marijuana possession before transferring and an on-campus stabbing in 2009 resulted in the death of football player Jasper Howard

With lodging options ranging from four-diamond resorts with sweeping views of Monterey Bay to cozy vacation bungalows and budget motels, Santa Cruz County offers accommodations for every taste and price point. A handful of hotel conference centers provide corporate meeting facilities in the midst of a tourist-friendly town awash in natural beauty.
Thanks to the legacy of organic farming innovator Alan Chadwick, who came to UC–Santa Cruz in 1967 to start a student garden and ignited a movement, Santa Cruz is a center of sustainable agriculture. And that means loads of fresh organic produce available year-round to local chefs. The signature local cuisine shows off this bounty with seasonally changing menus, fresh seafood from the bay and natural meats.
Legendary since the 1960s, when spillover from the San Francisco psychedelic scene swirled through its downtown venues, Santa Cruz's thriving music scene still brings the freshest rock, indie, blues, jazz, hip-hop and reggae to town. It's now possible to catch a national touring act or up-and-coming band on almost any night of the week, in any corner of the county.
It's famous for surfing and the Boardwalk's wooden roller coaster, but Santa Cruz is much more than a string of gorgeous beaches dressed up in pretty lights. Home to more California state parks than any other county, Santa Cruz features magnificent redwoods and miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, as well as museums, skateboard parks, a UC campus, golf courses, shopping districts and the aptly named Mystery Spot. It also has a formally recognized winegrowing region—the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA—that's winning notice for its pinot noirs. Dozens of wineries offers pours at their tasting rooms, either in town or amid their mountain vineyards.
Find breaking local news and in-depth coverage of the local political scene, as well as news about Santa Cruz business and the environment. Also find the day's news aggregated from local media sources, including Santa Cruz Weekly and Santa Cruz Sentinel. We also scour the regional and national media for Santa Cruz news so you don't have to.

Perry students dedicate tree in memory of Mayor Gorman
by Bailey Richards
Staff Reporter
The Perry Central High School Agriculture students last week dedicated a tree on the school's campus to former Hazard Mayor Bill Gorman.
Memory Lane, the memorial tree trail on Perry Central's campus, honors those who have passed away that have served or been a part of the community. The trail was started by agriculture teacher Ralph Combs when the new school was built. He said that the campus had no landscaping, so they began planting trees.
Since then, they have dedicated around 25 trees, which is bittersweet to Combs.
"There are at least 25, that is sad to say but there is," said Combs.
The very first tree was dedicated in 2001 for a teacher that had passed away.
"The first one was a school teacher that we had here, a science teacher, James Miller," Combs noted.
The first tree started with him, but since then it has grown."
Combs and his students have been planting trees for several years during peak times of the years, instead of waiting until a dedication needs to be made. This allows them to have mature healthy trees on the campus along with the memorial trail.
Combs said that they honor anyone who has a connection to the community, though the trees are sponsored by individuals.
"We have community leaders, anyone connected with the Perry County School System, civic leaders," said Combs.
They have also honored Perry County students that have passed away.
"They are all tough, because of cancer and illness, and most of them are young people, students in the school system," said Combs.
The latest tree dedicated is a maple tree near the entrance of the school. The tree honors long time Hazard Mayor Bill Gorman, who passed away in October 2010.

Review By: dapsycho | Posted: 05/10/2009
The Final Word
While its a perfect rendition of the board game, Bloodbowl on the DS finds itself hamstrung by AI and interface issues. For fans of the series only.
This is a guest review by ShineDog
Game Day!
Seconds left on the clock, and the skittering little goblin is yards from scoring the touchdown, the orcs have tried their best, but they wont catch him in time, all that remains is that one last dash to the endzone. The crowd is on the edge of their seat!
And he's dead. Tripping over and breaking his neck one step from the line. You'll see this kind of thing a lot in Bloodbowl, with giant trolls breaking their fists on elves, players unable to pick up the ball for an entire game, and even a player who managed to eat 2 of his team mates before falling into the crowd and being battered senseless
by a marauding fan. But that's Bloodbowl, and the unpredictable chaos on the pitch only adds to the fun and flavour of the game. At least, it should, but as fun as the original Bloodbowl is, Cyanides version has gone out of its way to rob the game of all it's knockabout fun.
You see, Bloodbowl has been around in board game form for over 20 years, and it has remained popular over all this time because its a damn fine game with a well balanced and solid set of rules. Players control a persistant team through one of a small selection of championship types, doing battle on the pitch and accessing a simple management mode between games.
During the game itself players take turns to move players (The DS version doesn't include the real time blitz mode of the PC version), move the ball, and knock the stuffing out of each other. Theres an unusual little twist in the form of the turnover, a rule where any failed action costs you the remainder of your turn. The rule is designed to add tension to the game, and to force the game to keep to a brisk pace, and while it works admirably in achieving these goals, it can be a little frustrating at first. Having said that, you quickly learn to prioritise, making sure important moves and safe moves are done before taking risks, always making sure that you have a contingency in case something goes wrong, it's a delicate game of risk vs reward.
But there's a problem. The AI doesn't understand turnovers. It doesn't understand risks. It doesn't understand rewards, in fact, it doesn't seem to understand very much about the game it's playing. For a predominantly single player game (Only local network play is available), that's a real problem.
Anything good about Bloodbowl is because of the board game it is based on. Wherever Cyanide have added to the game, it all goes pear shaped. AI, interface, presentation, none of it is good, although the AI isn't just bad, it's appalling. If it sees someone it can punch, it'll punch them. It'll make a puny runner take a shot against an enormous tough player just because it can, never mind that the player will lose, it'll try to make multiple dodges away from players it has little chance of escaping, play balls that will never be caught. It triggers turnover after turnover, throwing away turn after turn and pretty much giving the player a free ride. For the most part it's disorganised and random, but on occasion you can see it trying to make do something a little more organised, but that, unfortunately, is when it falls apart entirely.
When the AI makes a plan, it intends to stick to it, through thick or thin. Break its plans? It'll fall apart entirely, refusing to even move the ball carrier, or stand up downed players. Once you have learned the basics, you will have no trouble taking the AI apart, even on veteran difficulty.
Getting that knowledge, on the other hand, could be a little tricky. The game comes with a series of short tutorials, these do a good enough job of explaining the controls, but does nothing to explain the game mechanics or the dice rolls, this will make the task of learning the game very difficult for a newcomer, so perhaps its something of a blessing that the AI is so poor.
Sent Off.
In fact, the game seems to go out of it's way to be obtuse and frustrating, The interface is fiddly and seems unresponsive, particularly on the deployment screen, and there are some selection issues with units becoming deselected against the players will. (and don't think about playing it on the train! This is a game that makes you click between dozens of tiny sprites and squares, and this will render it virtually useless on the move)
At all times the game seems like it is going to great lengths to hide useful information from the players, there's nothing to indicate the difficulty of an action before you make it, so if you don't know the rules off by heart then good luck to you, because all you are going to see is the end result. Dice rolls for everything outside of combat are completely hidden, a crime in a game that relies on them as much as this, and for anyone struggling to learn the rules outside of the tutorial, this isn't going to help a casual player who doesn't know how to play the game figure out the odds of different actions. Other problems include the game forcing the player to needlessly flick back and forth between screens to deploy men, and a lack of any visual way to identify players and their skills other than clicking on each in turn to make them pop up on the top screen. Some little numbers or icons next to players when the camera was zoomed in would have gone a long way, but there is none of that.
None of this is helped by the visuals. The game uses ugly GBA styled graphics, and it looks like all of the player sprites have been culled from the models for the PC version of the game. This might sound fine on paper (after all, its a reasonably attractive game), but when viewed in low resolution on a tiny screen its extremely difficult to tell different kinds of player apart, particularly for races like the elves, who have little variation between different kinds of player. In addition, the isometric angle chosen for the game means that large players frequently block the view of the player behind them completely, it's all a bit of a shambles.
Final whistle
The sad thing is that the original game is excellent, and it's in here! It is the DS version that just doesn't let it show. Bloodbowl is a game built for multiplayer, and with only local network play for an extremely niche game the AI makes an extremely poor substitute. If you can find people to play with, go ahead and add 2 points to the score, but I would still recommend you try one of the other, more suitable mediums to play Bloodbowl in.
One for the die hards only, I am afraid.

Are you tired of going broke trying to stay healthy? If you are spending more than you would like on health supplements and vitamins, there are a few things you might want to consider that will not only help save what is left of your hard earned cash, but will also allow you to continue using health supplements and vitamins that are just as effective for a much lower price. We recommend Earthrise supplements, because they are an established, dependable company (and have good prices).
- Same Ingredients: Although not all health supplements are created equally, most have the same effective ingredients; some supplements and vitamins merely offer extra ingredients in order to appear more effective. It is a good idea to examine the complete list of ingredients in your supplements and compare them with more generic versions. Just because a supplement has a unique name does not make it more effective. One example of this is a common vitamin that if often taken for the health of hair, nails, and skin. While you might pay more for this supplement at a health store or through some online providers, it is often cheaper to purchase the same ingredients individually through a discount supplier. Some retailers even offer the exact same combinations under different names for a mere percentage of the name brand cost.
- More Variety: When purchasing supplements by ingredient instead of by combination or fancy name, you will commonly notice that you have quite a bit larger variety that is available to you. If you tend to stick with a certain brand, you might consider broadening your horizons a bit in order to become aware of all of your available options.
- Lower prices: By searching for and comparing a variety of retailers that offer the supplements you are seeking, you will notice quite a large difference in pricing options. Many retailers also offer discounts for purchasing more than one month's supply. Since the comparison of the active ingredients should enable your to realize whether you are in fact receiving the same product, you should be able to distinguish the best deal easily and effectively.
It is important to remember that some supplements offer a substantial amount of the ingredient you are seeking. In this situation, it is often wise to discover how much of the said ingredient your body will actually need, and purchase your product accordingly.

OIL SPILL TRACKING: Recently, scientists and mathematicians at University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill have developed a tool that could track the spread of oil spillsŚeven before they happen. By modeling the surface of the ocean, and factoring in potential wind and weather patterns, scientists can predict where oil that stays on the surface of the water will spread. The researchers hope the modeling tools will help clean-up crews decide where to marshal their resources in the event of a future spill.
ABOUT METHANE: Methane sources such as cows, oceans, wetlands, and natural gas pipes have more impact on the global atmosphere than previously thought. Methane was released along with oil in the Deepwater Horizon spill and even seeps naturally from the floor of the Gulf of Mexico. When methane breaks down chemically in the atmosphere and combines with other chemicals, it produces ozone, atmospheric scientists say. Like methane, ozone is a greenhouse gas, and it is also the main component of smog. Researchers say that even something as simple as tightening a leaky gas pipe can make a difference, reducing the amount of methane released into the atmosphere.

A true life partner is going to admire you for following your own intellectual or career passions anyway, so don't change yourself for someone else. Potential life partners are findable -- even ones, as Patton says, "worthy of you."
