Update: 'Plebgate' latest (From Evesham Journal)
Get involved! Send your photos, video, news & views by texting EJ NEWS to 80360 or e-mail us
Update: 'Plebgate' latest
9:47pm Thursday 17th October 2013 in News
THE three Chief Constables embroiled in the latest 'Plebgate' saga will appear before a Commons Select Committee next week.
The news comes as one of the officers concerned, West Mercia Chief Constable David Shaw, says he's staying quiet before answering the questions by Parliament.
The West Mercia force is under intense national scrutiny because of an investigation it held into the three police officers alleged to have given false accounts of what former government chief whip Andrew Mitchell told them in a private meeting.
The investigation concluded that there should be no action against the officers on the grounds of possible misconduct.
But the Independent Police Complaints Commission has challenged the conclusion, and a leaked letter from it to the Home Secretary says the verdict was altered between the draft version and the final report.
The Police and Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire, Ron Ball, has asked for a probe into this latest revelation of the changed conclusion.
The three Chief Constables will attend the Home Affairs Select Committee next Wednesday.

The facts are not being disputed.
The Officers presented a false and misleading account to the media following their meeting with the former Cabinet Minister.
The draft report to the IPCC concluded that there should be misconduct proceedings but this was then changed by Senior Officers within West Mercia Police.
What needs to be explained is how the Chief Constable and his Senior Officers consider the conduct of their Officers compatible with being Police Officers.
Those of us that have been subject to HMG Positive Vetting will find the conduct of these Officers incompatible with their employment as Police Officers.

If the police report published by the sun is accurate ( not contested by Mitchell) They should have nicked Mitchell at the gates, he would be in court by now and been forced to give his account. If he wasn't a politician he would be nicked any ordinary person would have had their collar felt. Sickening that he is getting away with it- not only do politicians steal from the public purse but they are now being openly abusive. What we need is a independent political complaints commission to keep an eye on them. Mitchell has not given an account of a 45sec confrontation, why not? Claiming that you did not say 1 word "pleb" does not cut it. C'mon Mitchell tell us what you said to the police officers. All this money being wasted because Mitchell won't tell us what he said - pathetic!
"Ex-cabinet minister Andrew Mitchell has said he is suing the Sun over claims he swore and called police officers plebs.
Mr Mitchell has repeatedly denied the claims, first reported in the Sun, but he later resigned as chief whip.
His lawyer confirmed a libel writ had been issued, while a source said he wanted to address "the campaign of vilification by the Sun against him"."

built around the core group who has performed a number of new development and redevelopment projects. Our approach offers the following benefits: COTS Framework The proven software in this COTS framework is automatically tailored by ResQSoft Engineer to provide the specific integration functionality required by the applications at hand. Standards based solution the Java programming language, our first choice for modern coding tasks, is supported by many vendors and development organizations. The legacy system integration code we will deliver to you can be maintained by almost any software development company or organization. We provide you with the full source code, and there are no vendor lock-in proprietary programming features or API dependencies in the code.
Rapid development because of our unique tools, we can truly do this work better, faster, and cheaper than would be the case with another approach. We have demonstrated this productivity repeatedly on software development projects. Your project is usually completed within a single years funding. Tool availability normally, we simply develop your legacy systems integration or other application code, and deliver to you the source code that we produce.ResQSoft tools are available for license. However, you can always maintain the code by hand as you would any modern Java application, using other low-cost tools which are readily available from the Internet. Our tools do not lock you in and you can maintain your source code without them if you so desire. Multi-Platform Our approach can accommodate templates that address a wide variety of legacy and non-legacy platforms, allowing you to bring all your legacy systems integration code to a single, maintainable solution with a standardized architecture. We are also proficient in software development in other languages, such as C and C++, and can field solutions for those platforms if desired. Engineer is designed to support multiple target platforms and languages.
ResQSoft offers an automated approach to meeting these kinds of legacy systems integration requirements. We can automatically generate source code that fits these or other system integration models, and we can produce this kind of legacy system integration code within a single budget cycle, on a fixed price basis that is less than half of the normal cost of writing the integration code by hand, using our software development tool, ResQSoft Engineer, and our standard development process.
ResQSoft Will Help You Avoid a Future Legacy Logjam In the 70s and 80s, we did not believe that we were writing legacy systems when we developed large business applications in COBOL. Yet, thats what happened. So, how do you avoid creating another such situation? What happens in six years if, the modernization language you choose today becomes unsupported and some new language is the new platform of choice? Well, if you modernize with Engineer, you will save dramatically on making further platform changes, because your code is properly structured and completely standardized and chances are we will support the new platform and can re-generate the bulk of your code to fit.

Average costs (ATC, MC) and marginal revenue (MR)
Marginal revenue below average total cost Why it is rational to produce at a loss
⇐ Use this menu to view and help create subtitles for this video in many different languages.
You'll probably want to hide YouTube's captions if using these subtitles.
- In the last video we finished up asking ourselves
- how much do we produce
- if the market price is at 45 cents
- and just going with the logic
- that we introduced in the last video
- you want to produce as much as possible
- to spread out the fixed costs
- but you don't want to produce so much
- that the marginal cost is higher
- than your marginal revenue
- and your marginal revenue is your market price
- every unit, every incremental unit
- you're going to get 45 cents
- So you wanna look at the quantity
- where your marginal revenue, the 45 cents
- is equal to your marginal cost
- and you can look at it over here
- so, if you look at our marginal revenue
- so, let's say 45 cents is right over there
- you wanna look
- where the 45 cents is equal to your marginal costs
- It looks like it is right over there.
- You can even see it in our table
- When does our marginal cost equal 45 cents?
- It equals that
- when we produce 8,000 gallons of our juice
- Now, the reason why this is somewhat interesting
- is that at that point
- the amount of revenue that we're getting per unit
- our marginal revenue
- is less than our total cost per unit
- We're selling each unit at 45 cents
- but our total cost for each of those units
- is 48 cents, on average
- So this right over here is our total cost
- So you might say
- look! I'm making a loss on every unit!
- The total amount of revenue I'm getting
- is a smaller rectangle over here
- It's the quantity times the marginal revenue per unit
- so, this is the amount of revenue that I'm getting
- let me colour it in carefully
- That is the amount of revenue that I'm getting
- while my costs are this larger rectangle
- My quantity times my average total cost per unit.
- and so, what I end up with
- is if you take that revenue
- and you subtract that quantity
- you end up with a loss of exactly this much
- you're operating in this situation at a loss
- when you are producing 8,000 units
- and you're getting 45 cents per unit
- So, does it make sense for you to do this?
- And we can even figure out the loss
- You're producing 8,000 units
- and you're selling them for 45 cents a unit
- and it costs you 48 cents per unit to produce them
- on average
- when you put all the costs in
- 48 cents per unit
- So you're losing 3 cents per unit
- per, I guess, gallon
- we're talking about orange juice here
- times 8,000 gallons
- means that we are losing 240 dollars
- 8,000 times 3 cents is 24,000 cents
- which is the same thing as 240 dollars
- so, does it make sense for us to do this?
- Well, one way to think about it
- let's say we didn't do it
- Let's say we're just like
- hey, I'm not going to produce any gallons
- well, then what's going to be our loss?
- Well, we're assuming that this is our fixed cost
- we've already committed ourselves
- to this expenditure right over here
- Whether we produce no drops of orange juice
- we are still going to be spending 1,000 dollars
- So we if produce nothing
- we are garuanteeing ourselves
- a weekly loss of 1,000 dollars
- And this is at least better than that
- So by starting to produce some units
- we are at least able to offset some of that loss
- and we're spreading out that fixed cost
- over more and more and more gallons
- And you might say
- hey! Why don't I just produce more and more units?
- Why don't I go here, maybe I'll produce 9,000 units
- where the marginal cost, all of a sudden
- is higher than our marginal revenue
- and the reason why that won't make any sense to do
- is because if you produce that many units
- then all of a sudden
- each of the incremental units
- that you're producing beyond the 8,000
- you're losing money on those
- That 8,000 and first unit
- the marginal cost is going to be higher
- than the marginal revenue
- that you're bringing in on that unit
- so you're going to be losing money
- You're going to start having a lower profit
- than even the negative 240 dollar loss
- so we'll start going into negative 240 something
- negative 250 and so forth and so on
- so you still don't wanna produce beyond that point
- and we'll touch more deeply on that in future videos
- but this is essentially what differentiates
- the short term supply curve
- from the long run supply curve
- In the short term
- we're going to assume that we have these fixed costs
- and so, it's just going to make sense
- to produce equivelent to our marginal costs
- But over the long run
- maybe our fixed items
- our capital
- our machinery wears off
- or maybe the contract for my emplyees wears off
- and then we have a different cost structure
- over the long term
- and we'll think about that in another video
- But the simple answer is
- assuming these really are your fixed costs
- you still want to produce as many units as possible
- so that your marginal cost
- is equal to your marginal revenue
- which in this case, is the market price
- We are price takers
- so it actually is a rational thing
- to produce 8,000 units and take a loss on that
- and take 240 dollar per week loss
- as opposed to producing nothing
- and taking a thousand dollar per week loss
- now, it might not be rational
- once these things have been worn out
- like your robots and your employee's contracts
- it might not be rational
- to continue them past their term
- and we'll think about that more in another video
- because, obviously, we are running at a loss
- and this is not necessarily a good business to be in
- but now that we've gotten int the business
- we might as well stay in it
- in order to recoup some of our costs here
- or at least spread them out
- or at least not have a thousand dollar per week loss
- Anyways. See you in the next video

This exercise was inspired by research on automatically repairing ill-typed expressions. For some typical programming errors,
a more advanced compiler could offer advise to a programmer how to correct an expression with a type error. In fact, the
Helium Compiler offers such a facility. You are asked to write a number of functions that
can be used to correct an expression (details are given below).
test0 = filter even () [1..10]One possibility to get rid of the type error is removing the
from the application. We will use the following convention:
corresponds to the function of the application (filter
), 1
to its first argument (even
), etc. Implement a function
that is given a number n
(greater than or equal to 0
), such that it conceptually ignores the =n=th argument. For
example, (remove 2) filter even () [1..10]
should yield the same result as filter even [1..10]
(because n = 2
corresponds to
Hint: write a (lambda) expression by hand that behaves as remove 2
Questions: remove
be defined as a normal (non-Template) Haskell function?
remove n
with n = 0
is a special case, since it removes the function of an application rather than some argument. Give an intuition for the meaning of remove 0
n = 5
for the example presented above (the function filter
is supplied only three parameters)?
should be given an initial value.
This expression can be repaired by inserting a second parameter.
test2 = foldr ((:) . toUpper) "afp 2005"We will use the same convention for assigning numbers to the parameters. Hence,
(insertHole 2) foldr ((:) . toUpper) "afp 2005"
should be equal to foldr ((:) . toUpper) hole "afp 2005"
, where hole
is the polymorphic "error function" predefined in the module Correct.hs
Optional part for 2:
More ideally, we pass an additional parameter to insert
, which is the value to be inserted. For instance,
(insert 2 []) foldr ((:) . toUpper) "afp 2005"
leads to foldr ((:) . toUpper) [] "afp 2005"
. Explain your solution.
are supplied in the wrong order.
test4 = foldr 0 (+) [1..10]A permutation can be represented by a value of type
. For instance, the permutation [0,2,1]
swaps the first and the second
arguments of a function. Give an implementation of permute
for permuting arguments.
Questions: permute [0,2,1]
and permute [0,2,1,3]
is not a valid permutation, but it can be passed to permute
. What kind of corrections can we make by passing invalid permutations?
test5 = length filter even [1..10]A common mistake made in functional programming is to forget some parentheses. The expression given above can be fixed by inserting two parentheses, yielding
length (filter even [1..10])
. This is the purpose of the function parens
that you have to write.
This function should be supplied two integers: the first indicates the location of the opening parenthesis, the second integer indicates how many
parameters are enclosed by the parentheses. We use the convention that location 0
corresponds to the position just before the function
(in our example, length
), whereas 1
corresponds to the position between the function and its first argument (in our example, between length
To correct test5
, we thus need parens 1 3
Question: parens
? Are there special cases?
foldr ((++) [] ["Template", "Meta", "Programming"])Following our line of reasoning, we could fix the type error by using
unparens 1 3
. Can you give a definition for unparens
, insert1
, etcetera into the top-level scope of a module. These specialized functions can be used as any normal Haskell function.
Of course, we can make use of the general insert
function (see Step 2).
Bring (a limited number of) specialized functions for insert
into the scope.
Optional part for 6:
Do the same for the other correcting functions.

Capping Off Christopher Nolan's Batman/The Dark Knight Trilogy of Films: A List of Awards
Here is a list up with some thoughts from myself, The Rake and "Countdown to The Dark Knight Rises" author and Batman historian of sorts, Prodigal Son. For brevity's sake, I'll refer to the movies as Batman Begins (BB), The Dark Knight (DK), and The Dark Knight Rises (TDKR). TDK and TDKR look too similar so as not to confuse anyone. If no movie is mentioned specifically, just assume I am referencing 'The Christopher Nolan Batman/Dark Knight Trilogy' as a whole. Needless to say, there are SPOILERS GALORE here. So, don't read if you haven't seen the films. Enjoy!
PS: Since BB starts with a flashback of Bruce chasing Rachel and falling into a well, the only opening bangs in the series are in that film's sequels. I'm going with the airplane hijack/kidnapping from TDKR. I loved it. The vertical plane. The wings snapping off. And the shot of Bane and his man strapped together while the hollow plane falls around them toward earth. Beautiful.
Rake: Yeah, that left a nice impression.
Rake: Christian Bale. He had to carry all three films and did so well. Ledger's Joker would be a close second, but really he didn't have that much screen time to work with comparatively. Bruce's cockiness off-set by his tortured soul really reverberated.
Rake: Anne Hathaway as Catwoman. I didn't think she was right to play a sexy villain that was once played by Halle Berry, and to me, she's nowhere near that class from a sex appeal standpoint, but she held up acting-wise and didn't look too bad in the end. Also provided a few quips that maybe TDKR needed being such a "dark" film.
Rake: Katie Holmes as a DA in BB. It's not so much that she was a bad actress, just that she was way too young to be a tough as nails DA, IMO. In her defense, she was better looking than her replacement in TDK. Which leads us to…
Rake: Replacing Holmes with Maggie Gyllenhaal. Looks-wise she's not up to Bruce Wayne material. Sorry.
PS: This is essentially a four-horse race, between Rachel I (Katie Holmes), Rachel II (Maggie Gyllenhaal), Selina Kyle (Anne Hathaway) and Miranda Tate (Marion Cotillard). Despite looking massive while coming in from the rain in TDKR Tate/Cotillard is taking an L to Kyle/Hathaway. As the longest tenured member of my Top 3 (since 2008's "Get Smart"), Hathaway brought diabolical sexiness to the unmentioned Catwoman in a suit that left a little to be desired, but a ballroom dance scene that comes in second only to former Bat-girl, Nicole Kidman, in "Eyes Wide Shut."
Rake: Cotillard and her rack, no contest. Honorable mention to a pre-TomKat Holmes in BB, when Batman picks her body up and she's almost passed out.
PS: The Bat-pod. I like it just fine in DK. I love it in TDKR. The flipping tires, allowing it to make insanely sharp turns or to come to a standstill did it for me. That and it made Anne Hathaway bend over a lot.
PS: In DK, when Batman runs a cable through the frame of the semi-truck Joker's manning, causing it to snap and flip forward end-over-front was awe-inspiring.
Rake: I like when Batman jumps off the building at night in Japan in DK. That was dope.
Rake: BB-Liam Neeson being a bad guy
DK-Two Face's turn of strength (He's a symbol of hope who once he gets an acid face starts one-punching people without issue.)
TDKR- The end shot when Alfred looks at Catwoman with Wayne and says nothing. Cheesy as fuck. I thought it was a little easy for Wayne to be with Kyle and I would have preferred that Alfred looks up and it cuts to black without seeing the two together. I like to be left wondering, even though we knew Batman was around due to Robin adventure.
Rake: I like the silent few seconds of Ledger's Joker hanging out of the cop car in DK.
PS: The Joker loved the pain of taking a punch, but those "brawls" were so one-sided. It really comes down to Bane breaking Batman or Batman breaking Bane's facemask. I'm going with the latter, for the fear in witnessing Bane throw some column-bashing destructive flurries toward Batman's body with cheetah-like speed (if cheetah's could punch).
PS: No cliché's here, I'm gonna go with Alfred. He didn't supply Bruce with all the tools and he wasn't fighting crime alongside him, but the old man who answers Bruce's door was game from the get go and never put himself before Bruce. As close to a father as the adult Bruce would ever know.
Rake & PS: The Joker (thought it would be someone else?)
Rake: Scarecrow, who by comparison to the others was a little tame (and not tough).
PS: I loved that Scarecrow attempted to enact a very time-honored Batman-villain idea of poisoning Gotham's water supply, but with the added technological twist of setting off the fear toxin by using a microwave-emitter to vaporize the water inside the bodies of Gotham's inhabitants. Smart idea. He just couldn't execute.
PS: Do I go with Bane as he clutches the strap of his vest like two backpack straps? Do I go classic with the Batman costume? I'm going Joker's custom-made green and purple suit. Combine that with the tinged green hair, the craggy white makeup and of course the smile-like scars and you have an icon.
Rake: Joker's make up job was unequivocally extraordinary.
Rake: BB, The League of Shadows training sequence and an original origin story.
DK, The acting of all involved. Top-notch main character casting, truly.
TDKR, The supposed conclusion to the story juxtaposed with Robin getting his start.
Rake: Steelers Nation appearance with Hines Ward and Roethlisberger showing up.
PS: Yeah, I'd like to think this glorifying celebration allows one nitpick. I hated the fact that Pittsburgh Steelers were in TDKR. It's not even because I abhor the team (though it doesn't help), it's still a quick distraction during a monumental scene. The River City football players didn't have recognizable faces and it didn't lessen the impact when the field cratered beneath their feet.
Rake: A little bit of that, but for me, mainly 'cause I hate the team.
Rake & PS: The Dark Knight
PS: BB is the stepchild of the series to me.
Rake: I'm not sure that it's fair to use that title, but TDKR. I think that the runtime was a little bloated and story could have been tightened up some. A lot of little twists. Still a strong film though. Read my review if you doubt me. I have mixed feelings about the very end. Almost would have preferred no denouement, but I suppose some of it was necessary.
PS: What's the one resounding moment from the series that will reverberate for years to come once the series is long gone and it's been rebooted time and again? I think that'll be Joker showing up unannounced at a meeting of the mobsters in DK and performing his "pencil trick." It's not every day you see the ol' banging-of-a-thug's-face-onto-a-free-standing-pencil-embedded-in-a-table-so- it-penetrates-the-brain-through-the-eye-socket routine performed to perfection.
PS: I guess I wish Arkham Asylum had more of a role to play in the trilogy. It exists in BB as Dr. Crane runs the facility, but perhaps if it somehow played the role of courtroom in TDKR or some of the escaped convicts came from that direction, it could have allowed some potentially brief glimpses of the most beloved super-villians in existence. It's a very fanboy-esque desire of me, for which I feel shame, but it could have been subtly cool.
PS: TDKR really screwed me up, emotionally. Alfred gives the tearful speech to Bruce, pleading for him to stop playing Batman. Batman gets his back broken by Bane. Bruce triumphantly makes the leap to the ledge, being cheered on by the masses. Batman returns to save Gordon from his icy exile and lights a flaming Bat-symbol. Alfred pleads for the forgiveness of Martha and Thomas Wayne's gravestones for letting Bruce die. And that final scene, when Alfred's surprise leads to his nod of acknowledgement knowing Bruce is safe and happy and that Batman is no more. I sat in my theater seat and wanted to cry, knowing it was all over. That's the one that got to me.
Rake: When Bruce escapes from The Pit in TDKR. I was welling up a touch. But you know how I feel about the very last shot…unnecessary.
Rake: The death of Rachel in DK. To me, that is when this set of films separated itself from others. Like when Damon's chick dies at beginning of Bourne 2 – same thing.
PS: I mentioned it in my countdown piece for DK, and had thought of it as the "Most Diabolical Twist." Concur.
Rake: In the end, I thought the trilogy was about Bale and Batman (as it should be). Scarecrow was a scientist/doctor with gas and a mask. Joker didn't want to kill Batman, he was entertained by him too much. Bane was just a leader of an army. I thought Bane would be more menacing than he was to be honest. He talked tough and could fight, but what else? The villains, despite their performances, were no match for the man in black. As for Robin…
Special thanks to Director Christopher Nolan for tackling these films. In lesser hands, we all know what could have become of the Dark Knight character. Joel Schumacher anyone!?

... When does V have hops?
*Manly single tear*
It might of been you or V who always jumps up high and gets me with a grenade ='(
If to be recognised as the best you have to be a hopper I may aswell learn to start jump shooting
1.Best Headshotter
- Ive definitely met a bunch of excellent headshotters while playing multi, and as much as I hate to give this title to Frenzy.... im not. Envoy wins this one.
2.Best (unique) player
- Unique.... hmmm. I know I tend to say this in almost every "Whos the best or your favorite player thread", but I just gotta say it again. All my friends are unique in their playstyle, so this award goes out to Rowan, Ian, AK, Nessa, Pippi, Envoy, James, and all my other "unique" friends I forgot to post here! You know who you are!
3.Best past player whom quit or doesn't play anymore
Well, obviously me of course.
- For cereal though, I might give this one to frenzy now. Ive only played with him about 10 times, but those were some of the toughest games Ive ever played! So kudos to you Frenzy, you got my vote.
Thanks avery, i really appreciate the compliment.
i loved playing you, you were always able to challenge every player without using the typical loadouts that are now common. Maybe one day everyone will come back to bioshock and we can all play a couple of games just like the old times
I just met a player last night, who takes the cake for me as the best player. The PSN was something like VencentValentine (I may not have the spelling correct, sorry). His/her rank was only 12, but I'm pretty sure it was not the first account of the person.
I have met other players that were very good and left me feel hopelessly outskilled, like Rybow and Wateraja, but I could get some kills even on them (although getting killed much more, of course). But this splicer last night was on an entirely different level. Constantly hopping around like a bunny, while shooting from the air with 100% accuracy. I could never get a shot (or plasmid) on target before I got killed. Each time s/he hopped into the room I got killed within seconds along with all my team mates. We played CW, like 3-4 times in a row, we lost each time with results around 500-200 or similar, s/he getting 25+ kills per game, while the others in the team had less than 10, even though they were all higher ranked (30-50).
You are right, I do not recall playing with you either. I started playing a few weeks ago (maybe a month?), I recently rebirthed and got to rank 21 after rebirth so far. I usually play 9pm-12pm EST (GMT-5) in whatever game mode I can find games, which means mostly civil war and CTS recently. My fav mode is turf war, but there is very little action there these days
i lost to vincent vallentine in a 1 v 1 idk wtf happened,lol kids got real bio skill......,,i lost to a rank 12 T-T stupid fallout stole some of my bio skill
I want to try this kid..when does he play..I play more at night lately.. game testing job got me busy during the day.
hmmm game testing?(that means you get games early or u play their beta version, no wonder u became the top player fast, i am not offending you by the way)(so u might get a chance to try out bio infinite, murder of crows(doesnt blind or do they) and what weapons for counterpart of nailgun)
i am pretty sure ur gonna introduce that kid to the wrath of your bees, ehh
Unfortunately Cola is pulling your leg, Mr. Destroyer. Listen to the way he words his sentence.
"...game testing job got me busy during the day."
Does he really need to say "game testing" each time he mentions his job. It's like he doesn't want us to forget, right? No. He just wants to continue saying it until everyone believes he's telling the truth, when it's apparent he's not.
Being on top of the leaderboards doesn't constitute you as potential to be a game tester. In fact, actual game testers are selected out of intelligent individuals who know how to actually test the game, and not just "play" it. You find bugs, errors, glitches, and overall gameplay issues and report them to get figured out.
Like I said, him being on the top of the leaderboards doesn't qualify him in the slightest. Plus, I sincerely doubt someone just got ahold of him and trusted him with unfinished games without ever seeing him in real life.
Only someone that doesn't know much about real game testers would attempt to say he is one by being #1 on the leaderboards. The facts don't make sense, and him continually "boasting" about it really sets him off the realism-scale.
Aw yeah... hops.
I don't really play seriously anymore.
HM, Best Bio players.... guy_with_hat is pretty good, the BioSocks are all leet, I'm pretty beast, if I do say so myself.
haha i know Rybow i noticed that a long time ago. Cola hears from word of advice....no one cares other then you. Here's some trivia you dont need to be a high ranking leaderboarder to be a game tester. I got to beta Spec Ops and a thousand other games for just having experience and know what to look for.
Do you even know what game testing really used for? Come on Cola you cant trick anyone here. When you come out with the truth and accept the facts then i will start to accept you into the forums.
P.S. Dont call yourself the King of Rapture cause you not since Rapture is divided between PS3, Xbox and PC control. Come over to xbox district and lets see how you fight
beep boop idk but, to me there is a best, The best player is all of us because if you did better than you did the last time your a winner so when people ask me whos da best just say hay nobody cause were all the best and yes the leaderboards do show who does good on what because i currently in 12th for adam and im 7th in kills i didnt even try but i notice that i got better cause i do better every round i play
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,so yea everyone is da best
I understand what you're getting at...but I'm pretty sure everyone isn't the best, as I've seen a player literally running out into a turret over and over again...not realizing he was being hit by a turret.
There is no "best" player, but there are "better than other" players.
It just depends on what everybody's individual definition of "best" is.
I guess the definition of best to me is someone who can adapt to any situation and pick the loadout that suits it. Take me for example. I may be able to headshot across the map but I don't have the smarts to beat tk users and ganging gl users etc.
so in lamans terms the best is someone who has brains, tactics and skill
campers don't count, that's not tactics that is just lame
the best player is Rybow73
Actually Rybow. I am really a game tester. I keep on mentioning it because I like rubbing it in to my haters who say that leaderboards don't mean ☺☺☺☺. So Ha!!! I cant give proof because am bonded by contract not give out any information of the game am working on, but when the game comes out ..ill be happy to tell you what game I worked on and where my name is in the credit. Your right about one thing, just because your good at video games doesn't mean you can be a game tester, but having a lot of experience working with cell phone, cable, internet, home phone industry gave me the edge I needed to get into the game testing industry. So keep on hating and trying to make me look bad but when the game comes out and I prove that my name is in the credit. You'LL look like the Fool..

I do get to play games before they are release, but I do not get to choose the game I test. I don't have a contract with 2k, so am not testing infinite (I wish I was) or nor did I test bioshock 2. I can't state who am working for because of my contract. Am fairly new to the game testing industry, been couple of months since I started this new occupation.
Games are created by each level. They create the each level at time then make the game tester test the level to find bug in types of A, B, C, and S. Once the level has been completed they move on to the next level. I basically find crashes, broken menu, bugs with items (picking up items and discarding them), glitches with graphics and audio in the game. Once they fix 1 bug, it may cause a domino of other bugs to occur, it my job to fixed all the bugs in the game. It's pretty easy job but involve a lot of work. Right now am working like a mad dog because most of the games are being released in January, so we are working hard to get the game ready for the release.
The counter for nail gun is electro bolt, it causes the gun have to warm up again before shooting. An electro bolt and a shot gun or cross bow with a head shot will do the trick but good like doing that on me ( only a few can kill me this way), most likely you'll be blind before you get the chance to do that...LOL

I really dont think that a company you pay to become a game tester counts as being a game tester, I think its known as a hmm what is it now "scam" and ones that give you beta for games you can betas for free doesnt count either
oh and btw we dont care... moving on
The best player I have played is Rybow,
when i said counterpart for nailgun i mean, what weapon in bioshock infinite will be similar to nailgun, Insect Swarm - Murder of Crows.
hmm, maybe ur one of the guys who finds glitches and post them on the internet after the game is released and not tell about it.
IF U R truly a game tester which we don't believe, why u spended alot of hours in bio2, and not do your job eh.
I really don't care if you believe me or not. Even when I show you guys my name is in the credit of the game am working on, you guys are still going to call me liar. Hater will always be haters. I play bioshock for fun, not for work... I was number 1 at bioshock, before I became a game tester. That one of the attributes that help me get the job.
I don't know anything about bioshock infinite, like I mention before I don't have a contract with 2k.

Child Welfare Still, more needs to be done to prevent child abuse and neglect, to support families and children at-risk of needlessly entering the child welfare system, and to help affected kids thrive and become successful adults. I look forward to continuing to work in Congress on these important priorities. Juvenile Justice Youth Homelessness I also was pleased that the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act), which became law in 2009, included $1.5 billion to prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless and help those who are experiencing homelessness to be quickly re-housed and stabilized. Additionally, the bill contained $70 million for the McKinney-Vento program to ensure that homeless youth are able to enroll, attend, and succeed in school. Health Care
In 2009, I was also proud to have helped the U.S. Senate to pass the Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act. This important piece of legislation ensures children get the doctor visits and medicines they need when they're sick and the checkups the need to stay well. Additionally, I am pleased to have supported a number of important initiatives over the years that have improved health care for children. For example, the Newborn Screening Saves Lives Act of 2007, which educates parents and health care providers about newborn health screening; improves follow-up care for infants with an illness detected through newborn screening; and helps states expand and improve their newborn screening programs. The Caroline Pryce Walker Conquer Childhood Cancer Act of 2008 has helped deliver much needed hope and support to children and their families who are battling cancer, and provide more resources for crucial pediatric cancer research programs. I also supported the Healthy Start Reauthorization Act of 2007, which is essential to helping our nation's most disadvantaged children survive infancy and start life healthy. For more information on my work on behalf of Nevada's children and all Nevadans in regards to health care, please click here. Education Child Nutrition–School Meals Unfortunately, not every child has that today. Especially, in communities that have been hit with high unemployment and foreclosure rates. In Nevada, there are more than 117,000 children living in poverty who do not know where they will get their next meal. The reality is sobering – more than 60,000 women, infants, and children participate in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, also known as the WIC Program. Science and good sense tell us that kids need healthy meals to succeed in their classes, be active, and lead healthy lives. The recession has taken a toll on the schools and local governments that provide a nutritious breakfast and lunch to school children and other programs that help families put good food on the table. This is why I worked with my Senate colleagues in the 111th Congress to unanimously pass the Healthy and Hunger-Free Kids Act. This important legislation, which President Obama signed into law, helps children, schools, and local government provide nutritious meals to children who otherwise would not eat breakfast or lunch. It reduces the paperwork and other red tape that cost schools money and increased the reimbursement rate so schools do not have to absorb the rising cost of food, an increase that has not been made since 1973. This bill also made several other critical changes in what our children eat in school:
The Nevadans who rely on these nutrition programs are people who never thought they would need help. The Healthy and Hunger-Free Kids Act reduces the stigma of getting help by giving WIC participants electronic debit cards, and in high-needs schools, by giving free lunch to all students so those who cannot afford lunch are not singled out. The bill also increases eligibility for free meals to children who are in foster care. It makes good economic sense and begins the work of fundamentally changing the quality of food served in our schools. Child Nutrition–Afterschool Suppers The Afterschool Supper Program is run by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) under the Child and Adult Care Food Program, and it is operated by the Nevada Department of Education. In addition to cash payments, participating supper providers also have access to food provided through USDA's commodity program. Suppers are served in group settings, so there are no applications for parents or guardians to fill out. I will continue to support nutritional programs like these in the 112th Congress. Well-fed children are happier, healthier and do better in school. Parents who have access to healthy food cook more nutritious meals. By supporting children and families through these hard times and continuing to create more opportunities to get Nevadans back to work, we build a healthier future where all children have enough to eat.

This Rockwell print is very special to me. Our local dealer had one that was too large for my needs. There is no comparison in the copy of the print he has in his shop and the one we purchased from Art.com. The print quality and colors are superb and it will be framed and displayed as a very special piece of art.

I am working on a large project, made up entirely of curly maple. So far my finishing results (on wood scraps) have been disappointing (more about that later).
The maple I ordered was from Ohio. Is it possible that my efforts to bring out the "pop"/"chatoyancy" in the figure would be better achieved with a different type of figured maple? For example: hard maple, soft maple, big leaf maple, "fiddleback" or "tiger-stripe", etc.
Disapointing finishing results: 1) Zinsser Seal Coat, TransTint dye and General Finishes' Seal-a Cell as a top coat; 2) TransTint dye and Watco oil; and 3) BLO, Zinsser shellac and Defthane top coat. All three approaches involved initially wet-sanding to 600 grit to raise the smooth the grain.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Tenderfoot Bob
The seal coat before the dye is the problem. You need to apply dye to raw wood not sealed wood. One method that works well is to dye the wood with a biege or golden colored dye then sand it after the dye has dried to leave the dye in the curle only. Light sanding with 220 or 320 is all you need; then seal it with shellac and watch it pop the grain right up in your face... Practice your entire finishing schedule from start to finish on scrap wood; keep track of what you do so you can adjust or repeat the process.
Scott Holmes
Finishing is an 'Art & a Science'. Actually, it is a process. You must understand the properties and tendencies of the finish you are using. You must know the proper steps and techniques, then you must execute them properly.
Scott's right, Bob. Apply the dye to the raw wood and sand it off. Although removed from the surface, dye will remain lodged in the figure which, just like end grain, is porous. When you put on the second coat of dye, the figure stands out because it has two coats of dye while the rest of the surface has only one.
I used this process on the figured maple I used to build the Turned Post Bed. To achieve a deep rich color, I applied a second coat of dye (I use a spray bottle to apply dye) and let it dry. Then I put on a wash coat of dewaxed shellac, followed by a burnt umber-colored oil-based glaze. When the glaze was dry I applied coat of gel varnish—General Finishes Topcoat.
I hope this helps.

Congestive hepatomegaly is a backup of blood in the liver, resulting from heart failure.
Severe heart failure causes blood to back up from the heart into the inferior vena cava (the large vein that carries blood from the lower parts of the body to the heart). Such congestion increases pressure in this vein and other veins that carry blood to it, including the hepatic veins (which drain blood from the liver). If this pressure is high enough, the liver becomes engorged (congested) with blood and malfunctions.
In most people, the congested liver causes only mild abdominal discomfort. The liver (in the upper right part of the abdomen) is tender and enlarged. In severe cases, the skin and whites of the eyes may turn yellow—a disorder called jaundice. Fluid may accumulate in the abdomen—a disorder called ascites. The spleen also tends to enlarge. If congestion is severe and chronic, liver damage or even severe scarring (cirrhosis) develops.
Doctors suspect the disorder in people with heart failure who have typical symptoms and abnormal results on blood tests done to evaluate the liver.
Management focuses on treating the heart failure (see see Prevention). Such treatment may restore normal liver function.

Art's Spar connects the Lower Ramp to the Upper Ramp to the left of Ruper and via several means. As a variation to the Grand Giraffe, Art's Spar makes a largely fun link up that catches the roof that was actually dodged by the Grand Giraffe. I will add a story to this description because it must rank as one of the all time classic epics that should have ended in disaster, but instead saved the life of it's chief protagonist. Begin Art's Spar at the top of the Lower Ramp as you would for Ruper. Following the Grand Giraffe, a pitch of 5.8 followed by a pitch of 5.4 takes you to the belay below the roof; stay in the 5.9 corner for the Giraffe or cut right and over the roof for Art's Spar. On the Upper Ramp, one has any of numerous choices to finish the headwall and catch the East Slabs. And this is a great route. Now, I may burn in hell for telling this story, but it is too good not to tell. Fifteen years ago in September I did Art's Spar with a super athlete/climber who I will call DK to preserve my own hide. DK, as most masculine hunks, had hugely more balls than brains, although he did survive this epic so he must have had some sense of self-preservation - or luck. We hit the Lower Ramp with just over one hour of sunlight remaining, and waltzed up the first two pitches to the Grand Giraffe belay below the roof at Art's Spar at approximately sunset. DK led the roof in classic, flawless style, but this took 45 minutes, which amounted to 45 min after the sun had set - dark in other words. Thinking of the exit off the Upper Ramp, the East Slabs, and the enclosing darkness, I suggested to DK that he rap back down to my belay from which we would descend via raps to the Lower Ramp and then rap this to the West. Agreed, he set up a rap and started down. Now, bear in mind that the roof is 300 ft off the deck. About 6 or 7 ft from the lip, DK stalled out and stopped his rappel. I inquired as his status and the progress of his rappel, to which I received a series of garbled grunts in response. After close to 10 minutes, perched above the Art's Spar roof, DK emitted a single sharp curse, SHIT!! In the silence that ensued, I heard the three notes that have burned themselves into my memory, perhaps forever: "PING!! Ping! ping...." "DK", I inquired with feigned calm ,"what was that?" .... "I just dropped my figure 8", he responded. In other words, while rappelling with the figure 8, DK managed to drop the very same device with which he was rappelling. Nifty. At that time I was wagering to myself at close to 5% chance of DK living through this evolving epic, perhaps a bit less, but since it was DK I would go with 5%. However, with a little school boy hand-over-hand rope climbing, DK did manage to get close enough to the belay for me to get a rope wrapped around his legs, then his waist, and get him back to the belay to continue our pleasant outing, which we did, under the cover of darkness. This was the last day that DK climbed. He even survived to marry the most beautiful woman in the universe; now both are happy.
Bring a full rack and a standard 50 or 60 m rope. Plan on descending via the East slabs, unless you want to hassle with the raps off T1 (a bad idea).
Ah, such is the nature and challenge of the overhang...a sequence not quickly mastered leads to the rapid diminishment of strength on grades one would normally float. The Spar is certainly 5.10...even in these sorry days of grade inflation. It's only 3 hand moves to the jug once you sort out the sucker holds from the good.
[Rossiter's 2000 guidebook] calls this route 10d/11a and says that a block recently fell out making it more difficult.
See comments under Superspar.
The route is really fun when approached via SuperSpar or the alternate pitch of "Ruper to Grand Giraffe" (see this site). I did it in autumn of 1995 and then again today and personally do not think that, within those dates, any "broken hold" has changed the difficulty of the climb; it has always been a little harder than most of the Eldo 5.10 standard bearers. Maybe 5.11a? People with big paws might find the last big jam more secure and downgrade accordingly. I for one have small hands & find it to be a little rattly. I've always clipped the fixed gear in the Vertigo roof and ran up it, but this one gives me pause.
Some Pre-Cambrian history: Nobody really knows the story of the name of this route except the three of us. Climbers have always assumed that it was named for the crux roof, but that is not true. When we first did this climb, we started up the 5.8 dihedral of Grand Giraffe for 20 feet, then angled left via some run-out face climbing. Art led this pitch, and about halfway up put a long sling around a horn. Art was from Steamboat Spgs, and had quite a Western Drawl, yelling down "I'll just wrap this sling around this spar here" (he was trying to say spire). Steve and I giggled about this as he led the rest of the run-out pitch, and decided to name the route Art's Spar. I immediately remember that in North Boulder at that time, there was a sleazy "Gentlemen's Club" called Art's Bar and Grill, so I thought we should call it Arts Spar and Grill, but the simpler name stuck. About the grade: Art led the first pitch and I led the short 5.9 lieback to the roof, so Steve got to lead the roof. It took him two or three tries to work out the moves, but Art and I followed without falling, so we all felt it was an easy 5.10 like Superslab, Northwest Corner, or T-2 but not a solid 5.10 like Guenese or Naked Edge or Vertigo. When I was regrading climbs for "Rocky Heights" in 1976, all these routes got upgraded of course, and I graded Arts Spar 5.10d, but I feel that 11a/b or 11b is probably more appropriate today. I have no idea where the 10c grade came from. It's harder than that, in my opinion. Jim Erickson
This was one of the first routes that I did in Eldo, and it is among my favorites. I can't imagine it ever being considered 5.11. I did it in the early nineties, so I don't know if the hold was broken by then, but it felt like mid-range 5.10 to me. I have done many of the 5.11 Eldo classics, and this route seems nowhere as hard. I have free soloed Tagger at least fifty times, and it always seemed harder than this roof. Maybe it is a hand size and height thing for some people. At any rate, it is fun route with an exciting position, and I would recommend it to any solid 5.10 climber.
I've always thought this route was hard for 5.10. And now I have confirmation from Jim Erickson himself!!
Finally got on this today and thought that it was harder then the Vertigo Roof. I agree with Tony...the bigger the mitts the easier it'll be. Thanks for sharing your story Jim!
A #3.5 Camalot may fit nicely without robbing the left when a #3 is used.
Off the top of my head: 10c roof routes: Grandmother's, Tagger, Whiplash, Electric Aunt Jemima, Sooberb, Muscle and Hate. 10d roof routes: Psychosis direct finish, Vertigo finish, Stay Hungry, Trident. I know ratings are style and size dependent, but as a reasonable accomplished crack climber, this one is still harder than any of those. If you like roof climbing but this one swats you down, don't feel bad. Give it another go, and put the above on your tick list for other fun things to try. Speaking of which, some other roof/crack routes in at 11a: Tombstone, Neon Lights, Bat's Ass Dihedral (though the crux is not the roof), Le Toit, On-Slot, Diving Board. Also 11b: Bacon and Ergs, Wingshot. I guess that's what I can think of for now. Eldo is not a huge roof-crack Mecca.
Rob and I cruised Vertigo Direct Finish back in 1984ish, then I at least got completely shut down by this climb. Hero to zero.
I agree with Ken that this route is easier than Tagger and Psychosis. This is mid-5.10 if Tagger is 10c and Psychosis is 10d/11a. Tagger is awkward and slightly committing. Art's Spar has overhead pro through the crux, and the moves are very straightforward. Also, the new BD #4 (which is more like a 3.5) fits perfectly in the beginning of the roof crack. A good route, but not super classic.

So far, Cleveland's new product line for 2011 has been a bit lackluster with the exception of the Mashie Hybrid as well as the CG16 irons and wedges. Last week we were lucky enough to get our hands on the new Cleveland CG16 Tour irons and I walked away fairly impressed. As usual, the irons are not earth shatteringly different than the previous models, but the CG16 does look and feel more refined. This player's set is designed for the golfer who demands solid feel, accuracy, and workability without sacrificing too much forgiveness. After a few swings in the net, it was evident that the CG16 encompasses all of these attributes. The cavity is quite modest however it is undercut which improves ball speed, distance on mis-hits, and accuracy. The tour-inspired shape promotes confidence at address with its progressive offset and cog location, thin top-line, and dark glare-free finish. As good as this club may appear and perform, my only complaint is that it is not forged. For some reason (most likely cost), Cleveland has steered away from making forged clubs and I think they are doing themselves a dis-service. The games best players want the best, and let's face it, forged irons simply feel better! In an increasingly competitive market, Cleveland needs to show up to the gunfight with a little more than a pocket knife. On the other hand, the Cg16 is still a great performing iron and to Cleveland's credit, their castings are quite good. The CG16 Tour irons will be available for shipment mid-February.

COD board candidate previously fired after alleged incidents of sexual harassment
GLEN ELLYN — A candidate running for the College of DuPage Board of Trustees was fired from the college in December 2010 after reports were filed against him regarding alleged incidents of sexual harassment, according to media reports.
Frank Flores Jr. was working as an assistant aquatics manager at the time of the complaints, which included one from a patron who said Flores had made comments to her such as "I want to taste you" and "I pee'd in the pool," according to a COD Police Department report.
The patron had been using the pool since August 2010 and filed the complaint Oct. 30, 2010, according to the report. It is alleged that Flores began making inappropriate comments to the patron in mid-September of that year, the report reads.

GABA (gamma aminobutyric acid) is a non-essential amino acid found mainly in the human brain and eyes. It is considered an inhibitory neurotransmitter, which means it regulates brain and nerve cell activity by inhibiting the number of neurons firing in the brain. GABA is referred to as the "brain's natural calming agent". By inhibiting over-stimulation of the brain, GABA may help promote relaxation and ease nervous tension.* NOW provides only the naturally occurring form as found in food and in the body.

Upas Street Pipeline Replacement Project
Project Overview
The Upas Street Pipeline, Park Boulevard Pipeline and 5th Avenue Pipeline are more than 70 years old and are reaching the end of their useful lifecycle. They are badly deteriorated and have a recent history of leakage and pipe breaks.
The Upas Street pipeline also crosses vast open space areas that are difficult or impossible to access for routine maintenance and repairs, and has numerous direct service connections that must be relocated to a new, smaller distribution pipeline for consistency with current codes and design standards.
The project will improve water delivery system reliability; increase operational flexibility; reduce overall maintenance needs and costs; and substantially reduce the potential for failure, major pipeline repairs and service shut-downs. The project scope includes:
- Replacing approximately 5.4 miles (28,500 linear feet) of fragile and deteriorating cast iron water mains along Upas Street, Park Boulevard and 5th Avenue, reducing the potential of pipeline failures.
- Replacing Pressure Regulating Stations at West Upas Street and Brant Street; at Upas Street and Hawk Street; and at Upas Street and Park Boulevard, bringing the facilities up to current standards.
- Installing a new Pressure Regulating Station at Upas Street and 7th Avenue, providing operation flexibility and enhancing system reliability.
Anticipated Schedule
- Preliminary Design: Complete in Fall 2012
- Public Outreach Start: Early 2013
- California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Review Period Start: Early 2013
- CEQA Review Period Complete: Late 2013*
- Construction Start: Early 2014*
- Construction Complete: Late 2017*
*Dates are approximate and subject to change; please visit the Project website regularly for the latest!
Project Budget
The project's planning, design and construction budget is $20.2 million.

Brightness is measured in lumens, but these are the measurements to look for:
- Color Brightness - Color Light Output
- White Brightness - White Light Output
Many projector manufacturers provide only one brightness number. If you see only one number, it's a white brightness measurement.
With high Color Brightness, you'll see vibrant, realistic colors. When Color Brightness is low, colors can look dull and dark, skin tones can be reproduced poorly and important details can be lost. Instead of measuring just white light, a new international standard was developed to measure the brightness of red, green and blue light. This value correctly describes the overall brightness of the projector, not just the brightness of the white, and provides projector buyers critical information.
