The sad thing is that no fish were thrown overboard The "greenhorn" who had never fished before those 5 days was interrogated for over 4 hours by 5 officers until his statement was illicited, "I don't want to go to prison....." The truth is that these fish were measured frozen off shore and thawed on shore. The FWC (state) officer did not know fish shrink, so the only reason that these fish could be bigger was a swap. There is no difference between a 19 1/2 fish or 19 3/4 fish, short fish is short fish, the ticket was written. In addition the FWC officer testified at trial, he does not measure fish in accordance with federal law. There was a document prepared by the FWC expert that said yes, fish shrink and if these had been measured correctly they averaged over 20 inches (offshore frozen). This was a smoke and mirror prosecution.
I love this, Dave! Many congrats to you! We've come a long way from studying for the bar together! :)
This outbreak illustrates the absurdity of the extreme positions taken by today's liberalism, specifically individualism and the modern cult of endless personal "freedom." Ebola reminds us that at some point the person's own "freedom" to do this and that comes into contact with the needs of the common good and "freedom" must be curtailed. This is not rocket science, except, today there is nonstop propaganda elevating individual preferences over the common good, so some pundits have a hard time fathoming the obvious necessity of quarantine in some situations....or even NATIONAL BORDERS...propagandists have also amazingly used this as another chance to accuse Western nations of "racism" which is preposterous and offensive. So one the one hand the idolatry of individualism has to stop and on the other hand facts people don't like that intersect with race-- remain facts nonetheless. People who respond to facts over propaganda do better in the long run. We call it Truth. Sometimes it seems hard to find.
It would be hard not to feel the Kramers' anguish. But Catholic Charities, by definition, performed due diligence and held to the statutory standard of care. No good can come from punishing them for doing their duty. Should Indiana wish to change its laws regarding adoption agreements and or putative fathers, the place for that is the legislature and can only apply to future cases. We do not apply new laws to past actions, as the Kramers seem intent on doing, to no helpful end.
I am saddened to hear about the loss of Zeff Weiss. He was an outstanding member of the Indianapolis legal community. My thoughts are with his family.

Exclusive: Karen Gillan Talks 'Oculus' and Why She's Always Wanted to Star in a Horror Movie
It is a weird distinction that the impossibly perky and polite Karen Gillan is the star of the scariest movie of the year, 'Oculus'. In the film, she plays a young woman determined to crack - both literally and figuratively - the mystery behind an evil mirror that has haunted her family. Her red hair pulled back in a ponytail (which bounces hypnotically to and fro as if it were itself possessed) that's as tight as her personality.

The legendary drummer is probably best known for his career-defining work behind the kit for John Mellencamp in the '80s and '90s, which was followed by a similarly lengthy stint as the drummer for another famous John -- former Creedence Clearwater Revival frontman John Fogerty-- a highly successful relationship that remains intact to this day.

Rani Mukherji is undoubtedly one of the finest actresses in Hindi mainstream cinema today. She is capable of fine understatement and is one of those extremely expressive actresses who is able to convey what she is going through with just a look or a gesture rather than have to say it through dialogue.
Rani was born in 1978 to a family with strong film connections. Her father Ram Mukherjee was among the founders of Filmalaya Studio and a filmmaker in his own right. She is Kajol's cousin and Debashree Roy is her maternal aunt. While still a teenager, she acted in a Bengali film made by her father, Biyer Phool. In 1996 she made her Hindi film debut with Raja ki Aayegi Baraat in the role of a poor girl who fights for her rights after she is raped by spoilt, rich boy Shadaab Khan. The film flopped but the Hindi film industry took notice of Rani. This led to roles in Ghulam (1998) and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998). Though her roles in both films were supportive at best, they nevertheless were strong stepping stones for Rani into the Hindi film industry. And Rani more than had her share of fine moments in both films. She is the perfect foil to Aamir Khan in the Aati Kya Khandala song in Ghulam and made quite an impact as the glamourous new girl in college who comes between Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in the latter. Rani went on to win the Filmfare Best Supporting Actress Award for Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (KKHH). Though her voice was dubbed in Ghulam, Rani turned her husky and hoarse voice to her advantage, creating a distinct identity for herself.
Thereafter for the next couple of years Rani settled into the role of a conventional leading lady opposite most of the top heroes of the day. She did make a solid impact as Kamal Haasan's Bengali wife in Hey Ram (2000), India's official entry to the Oscars even though the film made more news for her intimate scenes with Kamal. She was also quite effective as the girl who takes up with hit-man Bobby Deol after her family is slaughtered in Bichchoo (2000).
2002 was an extremely important year for Rani as she did her first film with the Yashraj Banner. Though Mujhse Dosti Karogi, flopped Rani's performance was appreciated and was in fact the best thing in the film. That year she also did Saathiya where Yash Chopra was one of the producers along with Mani Rathnam and Bobby Bedi. Saathiya, directed by Shaad Ali and co-starring Vivek Oberoi, was a re-working of Mani Rathnam's Alai Payuthey (2000) about a young couple who get married and realize that marriage is not a bed of roses. The film was a hit at the box office. Rani was the life and soul of the film responding with a beautifully shaded performance. Chalte Chalte (2003) with Shah Rukh Khan, again looking at post-marital problems of a young couple and their trials and adjustments, brought Rani futher accolades. She was now being recognized as an extremely able actress.
Rani hit her peak in 2004 with Yuva, Veer Zara and Hum Tum. In Yuva, again playing a young Bengali woman, Rani is outstanding as Sasi, married to Lallan (Abhishek Bachchan) and who gamely tries to get him to leave a life of crime finally aborting their baby when she realizes he cannot and will not change. In Veer Zaara though playing a supporting role of the lawyer getting the two lovers together, it is Rani who moves the film forward and makes maximum impact in the film and in Hum Tum she perfectly plays Sally to Saif Ali Khan's Harry. Rani went on to sweep all the Best Actress as well as Best Supporting Actress Awards for Hum Tum and Yuva. She was now the reigning queen of Hindi cinema and with Kajol's retirement post marriage, undoubtedly Bollywood's finest actress.
If 2004 took her to Hindi filmdom's numero uno position, 2005 saw Rani outdo anything she had done so far and give one of her best performances ever in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's otherwise overblown Black. As the deaf, dumb and blind Michelle McNally, Rani is absolutely stunning. Be it her 'speech' at graduation or the scene at the dining table or as she 'dances' to the music being played at a party, she is absolutely spot on. Incidentally, Rani initially refused the film as she wasn't sure she could do justice to the role but when Bhansali persisted, she trained at the Helen Keller institute in Mumbai for picking up the sign language and other nuances for her role. Needless to say she swept all awards for Best Actress second year in succession. She also had a huge commercial success the same year with Bunty Aur Babli and was in fact, the life of the otherwise disappointing film. Her other major release of the year was another overblown film, The Rising and she was adequate enough in her small role as the prostitute.
Since then Rani has been efficient enough in her performances without being spectacular. Of course, she is too good an actress to be bad but her performances in Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006) and in particular in her films in 2007 - TaRaRumPum, Laga Chunari Mein Daag and Saawariya (2007) have been good enough but the extra spark has been missing. Of these, she comes across best in Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (KANK), Karan Johar's take on the institution of marriage as it is she, in particular, from the ensemble cast who rises above the script and saves many a moment in the 3 hour plus marital saga.
Unfortunately for her, her latest releases Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic (2008) where she plays an angel, and Dil Bole Hadippa! (2009), in spite of a reliably efficient performance from her, have done nothing for her and continues the overall dismal showing of most Yashraj films over the last couple of years.

Strauss-Kahn, hotel worker settle suit over alleged attackBy RUSS BUETTNER
The New York Times | December 11,2012AP PHOTO
Nafissatou Diallo, center, who claims she was sexually assaulted by former International Monetary Fund leader Dominique Strauss-Kahn, exits a Bronx courthouse after the case was settled Monday in New York.NEW YORK The former French politician Dominique Strauss-Kahn and the hotel housekeeper who accused him of sexually assaulting her last year have agreed to settle her lawsuit stemming from their sexual encounter, a judge said on Monday.
The settlement, whose terms were not disclosed, was announced at a hearing in State Supreme Court in the Bronx, eight long miles from the headline-grabbing cases genesis: a 28th-floor suite at the Sofitel hotel in Midtown Manhattan.
Justice Douglas E. McKeon entered the courtroom at 2:15 p.m., and said a deal had been finalized in his presence about 10 minutes earlier. Both sides agreed that the settlement would be confidential.
The housekeeper, Nafissatou Diallo, who was at the hearing and went public with her identity last year, said afterward: I thank everyone all over the world and everyone at the court. God bless you all.
Strauss-Kahn, who was not in court, was arrested in May 2011 after Diallo told detectives that he had sexually assaulted her in his suite. Strauss-Kahn was indicted on charges including attempted rape, sexual abuse, criminal sexual act, unlawful imprisonment and forcible touching.
The arrest threw Strauss-Kahns career in turmoil: He resigned his post as head of the International Monetary Fund in disgrace and his rumored candidacy for the French presidency was abandoned before it could begin. He was first held in jail without bail, and won his release to house arrest only under extraordinary conditions.
But the criminal case began to crumble when questions of Diallos credibility convinced the Manhattan district attorneys office that it could not reasonably persuade a jury to trust her account. The case was dismissed in August 2011; court papers at the time described Diallo, an immigrant from Guinea, as having been persistently, and at times inexplicably, untruthful in describing matters of both great and small significance.
But by then, Diallo had filed her civil suit in the Bronx, where she lives.
Strauss-Kahn has said the sex with Diallo was consensual, though in a French television interview after the criminal case was dismissed, he acknowledged that the encounter was an error and a moral failure that he would forever regret.MORE IN Wire NewsNEW YORK The families of three unarmed black men who recently died at the hands of police...

Court victory for Maryland family poultry farmers
A federal court judge in Maryland ruled in late December in favor of Perdue Farms poultry grower Hudson Farms in a case filed against them by the Waterkeeper Alliance, which failed to prove the poultry growers violated the Clean Water Act by polluting the Pocomoke River.
Originally filed in March 2010, the civil suit accused Hudson Farms and Perdue Farms of violating the Clean Water Act based on a pile of material on the farm that was assumed to be chicken manure. After inspection by Marylands Department of the Environment confirmed that the pile was biosolids from municipal sewage sludge, the Hudsons were asked to move the pile and they complied.
American Farm Bureau Federation President Bob Stallman welcomed news of the court ruling.
Americas farmers and ranchers are committed to producing safe and nutritious food. We work to protect and enhance the environment, while responsibly caring for our animals, the public and our neighbors, Stallman said. This victory for the Hudson family should serve as a wake-up call for activist groups that our nations courts should not be used for unsubstantiated attacks on hard-working farm and ranch families.
Ohio Farm Bureau Federation (OFBF) Vice President of Public Policy, Adam Sharp said that because of the similarities in challenges and opportunities in nutrient management in Maryland and Ohio, OFBF financially supported the defense of Hudson Farms, as did other state Farm Bureaus.
Water quality issues are a good example of the increasing importance of the need for farmers to be involved in continually reviewing and improving our practices, but it is also important to protect the rights of property owners against frivolous lawsuits such as this, Sharp said.

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
Topeka, Kan. Topeka police reversed course on whether a suspect in a homicide late last week has been taken into custody.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reported Sunday that a watch commander had confirmed an arrest had been made in connection with a homicide that happened Friday. But a news release sent out Sunday evening said the arrest in Independence, Missouri, was only on a narcotics warrant.
Police spokesman Brian Desch says there has been no arrest in the killing and the case continues to be investigated.
A man was shot and killed at a Topeka home Friday afternoon following a verbal exchange with another man driving a silver Dodge Magnum station wagon. Witnesses told police the car's driver fired eight to 10 shots in rapid fashion at the victim before driving away.

Traveler's diarrhea (TD) is a term used to describe the diarrhea caused by infection with bacteria, protozoa, or viruses ingested by consuming food or water that has been contaminated. It is the most common illness affecting travelers. About 80 to 90 percent of TD cases are caused by bacterial pathogens--Escherichia coli, Campylobacter jejuni, Shigella sp., and Salmonella sp. Ten percent of TD cases in long-term travelers are caused by the protozoal pathogen--Giardia intestinalis. Intestinal viruses, including norovirus, rotavirus, and astrovirus, account for 5 to 8 percent of cases.
Traveler's diarrhea describes a specific condition that may occur when traveling to countries that have poor public sanitation and hygiene. Poor hygiene practice in local restaurants has been identified as the main contributor to the risk for TD. High-risk areas are often located in developing countries, such as Africa, Asia, Mexico, Central and South American, and the Middle East.
Traveler's diarrhea is caused by drinking water or eating foods contaminated with fecal material, unsafe storage of food, improper food handling and preparation, and inadequate sterilization of surfaces and utensils used in food preparation.
A normal course of traveler's diarrhea lasts about two to five days. In rare cases, protozoal diarrhea can persist for weeks to months without treatment. Symptoms may include:
Loose, watery stools
The best preventives for traveler's diarrhea are:
Only use water that has been boiled or chemically disinfected for:
Drinking, or preparing beverages such as tea or coffee
Brushing teeth
Washing face and hands (alcohol-based gel can also be used to wash hands)
Washing fruits and vegetables
Washing eating utensils and food preparation equipment
Washing the surfaces of tins, cans, and bottles that contain food or beverages
Do not eat food or drink beverages from unknown sources, and only drink beverages that have been bottled and sealed
Do not put ice in drinks
Any raw food could be contaminated, including:
Fruits, vegetables, salad greens
Unpasteurized milk and milk products
Raw meat
Any fish caught in tropical reefs rather than the open ocean
Although antibiotics, antimicrobial drugs, antidiarrheals, as well as other over-the-counter medications are sometimes used as preventives, the CDC does not recommend their use without the specific advice and supervision of a doctor. Taking any medication without medical supervision can be dangerous. In addition to side effects or allergic reactions, long-term use of medications can mask symptoms that may need medical attention.
Traveler's diarrhea, although uncomfortable and unpleasant, often resolves without specific treatment in only a few days. Dehydration (loss of fluids) can be a serious side effect, especially for children and babies. Drinking plenty of noncontaminated fluids is important.
For diarrhea that is worse than normal or lasts more than three days, it is best to consult a doctor, especially for pregnant women and children. Antibiotics may be needed for these cases, and some doctors will prescribe a short course of antibiotics to be filled before leaving on an overseas trip. Seek medical help when diarrhea is:
Not getting better within a few days
Accompanied by fever and chills
Causing dehydration

Sony evolves card-less Augmented Reality tech
Sony has claimed it has revolutionised Augmented Reality (AR) by eliminating the need for markers in the real world on which to key virtual graphics. According to Sony, its SmartAR technology uses "object recognition technology" to spot real objects, such as photographs and posters, plus Sony's proprietary "'3D space recognition …
Nice, But...
Wouldn't Sony be better off spending resources on securing it's web services?
Stupid remark of the year?
Are you saying that all Sony employees stop what ever they do to improve security for a small portion of their customers?
Does include the PCB assemblers, sales staff and toilet cleaners?
Well, not all
Well,not all divisions can work on security.. :p
if it comes to NGP, they might bring this to Move as well..
Next Generation.
So will the Second Edition be SmartARSE?
letters and/or digits.
"eliminating the need for markers in the real world"
"'object recognition technology' to spot real objects, such as photographs and posters"
AKA "markers"?
So, it's still needs markers, just not pre-defined ones?
A nice advance, but it's a poorly written article/press release.
I thought this article said "no markers"?
Surely a rectangular card with a pattern on it is a 'marker'!
Do you remember.....
That guy that got an AR tattoo, I bet he feels a right tit now, mainly because he is a right tit though!
old news
a company called "autonomy" has already done this (and released a preview iphone app with an android release in the works) called "arusama" http://www.aurasma.com/
paris, cause if anything needs augmentation its her - shes got a face like a battered trout
By "No Marker"
I think they mean it doesn't require the card to be in view or be marked with a special symbol. Existing AR tech in use by consoles etc uses the cards to supplement the data from a gyro / e-compass, but cannot work out the subtle nuances of movement from the camera alone. This can.
It's not totally new tech (see Imagineer's "Mocha") but to do this in realtime on a handheld console would actually be rather impressive.
It's like the difference between a standard wii controller and kinect. You can sort of do the same thing but kinect knows a lot more info about you rather than having to make rather large assumptions.

TOPEKA, Kan.-- A southeast Kansas town has lost its latest bid to retry a class-action lawsuit claiming BP of North America should do more to clean up industrial pollution from a refinery that closed in 1970.
The Kansas Court of Appeals on Friday rejected the request from residents and officials of Neodesha, who sued in 2004 for more than $478 million in cleanup costs plus damages.
A jury ruled for BP in 2007, but the trial judge later set the verdict aside, concluding he gave jurors improper instructions. The Kansas Supreme Court reinstated the jury's verdict in 2012, prompting the plaintiffs to file for a retrial.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reports the Court of Appeals acknowledged problems with the first trial but said it found no reason for a new one.

The International Federation of Robotics (IFR) recently released their annual statistical recap and four-year forecast for the robotics industry. The IFR produces two research books: one that covers industrial robots and the other for service robots.
Following the International Federation of Robotics' (IFR) announcement earlier this year that 2013 set an all-time robotics record, the North American Robotics Industries Association announced that 2nd quarter robot sales were the best ever, and the 1st and 2nd quarters combined have set a new record.
In a crowded back room at AUTOMATICA 2014 in Munich, the International Federation of Robotics (IFR) sponsored a panel of prominent robot users explaining their needs to a panel of executives representing all the prominent robot manufacturers.
At a press conference this morning at AUTOMATICA 2014 in Munich, International Federation of Robotics (IFR) President Arturo Baroncelli announced that 179,000 industrial robots were sold in 2013, a 12% jump from 2012 and the highest number of units sold ever.
Based on the results of the IFR Quarterly Statistics, the IFR estimates that in 2013 about 168,000 industrial robots were sold, 5% more than in 2012.
Research and Markets, an online market research store, is offering a new $3,000 report, Global and Chinese Automotive Industrial Robotics Industry Report 2013-2014, with figures that differ sharply from the data provided by the International Federation of Robotics.
Robotic start-up companies range from the whimsical to the amazing, from futuristic to topical, and from hubs of robotic activity in Silicon Valley, Boston, New York City (a new hub) and Switzerland to far-off places around the world: Turkey, Tel Aviv, Moscow, Christchurch, Reykjavik, Singapore, Shenzhen, Buenos Aires — essentially, everywhere that programmers program and engineers tinker.
In a joint research study by Israel-based RoboLogics Ltd. and the Israeli Manufacturers Association, 72% of respondents considered that their processes were suitable for robotics automation. However, 66% cited complexity and lack of familiarity with the technology as one of the main reasons for NOT having implemented robots in the past. Facilitating the user-robot interaction and robot-to-robot collaboration was what they were referring to when asked to define "complexity" and "lack of familiarity with the technology".
The China International Robot Show CIROS was held July 2-5 in Shanghai. 30,000 people were expected to attend and 56 companies exhibited. Although most of the exhibitors were Taiwanese, Japanese, Korean, German and other international robot vendors and their Chinese integrators, there were many new Chinese robot makers as well.
These days it is hard to read an article about the future of robots that does not include a reference to jobs. As a pure roboticist I object to the constant connection between the two, but as a concerned citizen I think it is a very worthwhile discussion. Since the year 2000, the US has lost more than 6 million manufacturing jobs — that is more than 1/3 of all direct manufacturing jobs in the US and the fastest drop in a single decade on record.
Do industrial robots really have a positive impact on employment? Of course they do and there are over 50 years of data proving that to be the case.
All the economics reports from a variety of stakeholders in one place! Don't forget to bookmark this page – we will update it as new reports become available.
At an International Federation of Robotics (IFR) CEO Round Table held at Automate 2013, in Chicago, IFR executives presented a recap of a new research report on the positive impact of industrial robots on employment.
The International Federation of Robotics has released their 2012 books reflecting 2011 results, and projections for 2012-2015.
Imagine being present at the birth of a new industry. It is an industry based on groundbreaking new technologies, wherein a handful of well-established corporations sell highly specialized devices for business use, and a fast-growing number of start-up companies produce innovative toys, gadgets for hobbyists and other interesting niche products. But it is also a highly fragmented industry with few common standards or platforms. Projects are complex, progress is slow, and practical applications are relatively rare. In fact, for all the excitement and promise, no one can say with any certainty when — or even if — this industry will achieve critical mass. If it does, though, it may well change the world.Bill Gates, Scientific American Reports2008 Special Edition on Robotics

Whether you're the owner of a high-profile dental practice or managing a small specialty practice, everyone experiences a slow season.
With empty appointment books and fewer new patients, a slow period can seem damaging, but actually holds immense potential. How can you use your slow season to bring in more new patients? Here are some tips.
Start Online. Many practice owners think having a website is enough of an online presence. Your website should be the cornerstone of your web presence, but during a slow season, a website alone may not provide the exposure you need to keep your appointment books full.

- Summary: Assassin's Creed II is the product of over two years of intensive development by the original creative team behind the Assassin's Creed brand. In a vast open world environment, the game invites players to incarnate Ezio, a privileged young noble in Renaissance Italy who's been betrayed by the rival ruling families of Italy. Ezio's subsequent quest for vengeance plunges players into an epic story that offers more variety in missions, surprising and engaging new gameplay elements, diverse weapons and a profound character progression that appeal to fans of the original Assassin's Creed as well as entice players new to the brand.

Score distribution:
Positive: 69 out of 70
Mixed: 1 out of 70
Negative: 0 out of 70
A huge improvement over the first game, Assassin's Creed II offers up an enormous, beautiful open world that's easy to get lost in, an epic storyline and all the fun that comes from creatively killing villains and tearing across 15th-century rooftops at ridiculous speeds.
Assassin's Creed II is a worthy successor of one the most intriguing new franchises we have seen in a long time.
A huge improvement over the original, every element has been looked at and worked on making it a joy to play. Another must have top title.
AC2 is everything a sequel ought to be: An improvement on the original in nearly every way. Perhaps more impressively, it actually has me interested to see where the series goes from here -- something I wouldn't have expected after I slogged my way through the original. Anyone who enjoyed the first game will definitely like AC2, but the real accomplishment is that people who didn't enjoy it will likely have a good time, too.
Assassin's Creed II is such an improvement compared to its predecessor that it feels like a completely new game, rather than just a sequel. The varied missions really shine and the narrative is very effective, in all it's Forrest Gump-esque glory. Despite the quite slow start, Ezios adventures in beautiful Florence and Venice both look and feel amazing, and are well worth experiencing to the very end.
After the first game turned out to not be as good as expected, the interest in a sequel waned, but AC2 did a great job of redeeming itself and with any luck those who were turned off by the original will at least give the sequel a try, because it truly is a greatly improved game.
To say the least, Assassin's Creed II is a disappointment – not because it's bad, but because we were promised so much more. Everything Ubisoft claimed they were changing has stayed the same, and what little new touches they've included fail to impact in the long run.

vineetbDec 3, 2009this game is realy awesome.story,graphics&gameplay every thing is at its best.some problem is there regarding graphics.otherwise its a masterpiece
Mar 23, 2014Not only a fantastic, beautiful, brilliant stealth/adventure game, but an accurate one. This game has helped me pass numerous tests I may have failed. I've toured the locations from the game, and seen their match up. My grandfather even, who had lived in two of the game's locations for years was given a controller and found that he could find real locations he knew of without the aid of a map, claiming it was like being back home. Even if not for gameplay, you've no reason not to touch the one and only perfect Assassin's Creed.… Expand
Nov 22, 2010Bought this game on sale 9 months after release - 12,99 eur complete edition. First I tried to play but just couldn't go on 'cause game sucked heavily. Later on I gave it a second go and got addicted. With over 50 hours of game-play and platinum trophy unlocked (yey!) that was money well spent. And I got refunded amount of 19,99 euros in trade for LBP 2.… Expand
Feb 4, 2013This game is probably the most improved sequel outside of Just cause 2 ever, almost everything the original game failed at this game succeeds massively with. The combat is far better and the missions are varied. The story is so much better as instead of playing as a faceless assassin like in the first game, you're a charming Italian guy who injects a much needed sense of humor into the game. The environments are more varied and much nicer than the original and the fantastic parkour remains fun. The soundtrack is also very well done and even memorable at times. The game is also very lengthy taking hours upon hours to do everything. Only problem is the best strategy in combat is still to keep countering and blocking constantly and two of the 14 sequences are DLC which is a bit unfair. Other than that though It's a fantastic sequel and great game.… Expand
Oct 21, 2012Personally i prefer the original but that doesn't mean that this is not good as well. Maybe it was because of the historical location. I think that the middle age of AC1 was better retracted than the renaissance of AC2. In spite of these minor details it's always satisfying to play the AC series. It's a reference of this generation's gaming.… Expand
DajaJNov 20, 2009The game is the same as AC the graphics are bad and the story is just stupid and the ending is really bad enough said do not buy this game.

There's a bizarre new twist in the vaccine wars: Authorities say some parents are ordering lollipops licked by children infected with chicken pox, and then giving the candy to their own kids on the theory that the exposure will build up their immunity without the need for shots. One doctor calls the trend a form of "Middle Ages vigilante vaccination," and health officials warn it's dangerous and illegal to send infected materials through the mail. "Can you imagine getting a package in the mail from this complete stranger that you know from Facebook because you joined a group, and say here, drink this purported spit from some other kid?" asks federal prosecutor Jerry Martin in Tennessee. What does it say that some parents actually think this is a good idea?
Parents have lost their minds: You'd have to be "insane" to order infected lollipops for your kids, says Max Read at Gawker. And some parents clearly are. It is frightening to think that social networks like Facebook are making it easier for the "unbelievably stupid" people capable of cooking up such a scheme to link up with the "inexplicably gullible" moms and dads who are willing to give it a try.
"Insane parents now buying and selling chicken pox lollipops"
The motivation of these parents isn't that crazy: We're not talking about some fringe group of wackos here, says Amy Graff at the San Francisco Chronicle. Eleven percent of U.S. parents refused at least one vaccine for their kids in 2009. Children get so many vaccines these days that some parents are afraid kids' "immune systems are weakening because they're no longer fighting off viruses" on their own. These moms and dads figure they survived these childhood diseases, and their kids will, too.
"Parents seeking chicken pox lollipops on Facebook"
Chicken pox is nothing to mess with: Even previously healthy children can get serious complications from the varicella-zoster virus that causes chicken pox, says Dr. Lisa Dana at Baby Center. "These include secondary skin infections, pneumonia, encephalitis, and even death." It should be obvious, but "a lollipop sent from a stranger can be infected with other viruses, like hepatitis." We're lucky enough to have a vaccine to protect kids from chicken pox — use it.
