The self-proclaimed mad scientist Rintarou Okabe rents out a room in a rickety old building in Akihabara, where he indulges himself in his hobby of inventing prospective "future gadgets" with fellow lab members: Mayuri Shiina, his air-headed childhood friend, and Hashida Itaru, a perverted hacker nicknamed "Daru." The three pass the time by tinkering with their most promising contraption yet, a machine dubbed the "Phone Microwave," which performs the strange function of morphing bananas into piles of green gel. Though miraculous in itself, the phenomenon doesn't provide anything concrete in Okabe's search for a scientific breakthrough; that is, until the lab members are spurred into action by a string of mysterious happenings before stumbling upon an unexpected success—the Phone Microwave can send emails to the past, altering the flow of history. Adapted from the critically acclaimed visual novel by 5pb. and Nitroplus, Steins;Gate takes Okabe through the depths of scientific theory and practicality. Forced across the diverging threads of past and present, Okabe must shoulder the burdens that come with holding the key to the realm of time. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Following on from the last blog post, this one deals with Internet connectivity.
So as a business you can get some great deal from many providers, but before you do so STOP!
Now go and talk to your IT (Technology) Provider.
Although most broadband migrations go smoothly what is going to happen if it doesn't?
Other things you need to ask/establish are
- Is Broadband enough or do you need another option
- Do you need a resilient/Redundant connection
- If yes to above, how is that going to happen
- Is the connection capped
- What happens when you reach the cap limit
- How easy is it to get support? Search the Internet to see customers experiences, these are likely all to be negative as we only ever seem to moan on line. But are there good ones. Talk to other businesses

Hello my lovelies, how are youu? and if you're wondering what I've been up to and why there hasn't been a new post since my very last one; 200 Followers: Thank You. As much as I would love to create a new post for you, I just haven't been able to :(. However, today on a chilly evening there is nothing I'd rather be doing than getting comfy with this totally cute blog post all while sipping my tea 🙂 oh what a feeling hehe, the leaves are falling, the wind is blowing, it's all about the boots and cute sweater dresses!
Now you're probably wondering where I'm going with my title here, is this about boots, a fall lookbook? umm… not exactly, when I say "Totally Obsessed" I'm talking about this guy over here, which is totally worth the obsession. But I 'could' do a post just on boots (that's a great idea)
Disclaimer: Get ready for a lot of pictures 🙂
Wanna know something interesting, no? oh well, I'm going to tell you anyways and that is… this is my first ever purchase of "Too Faced' products, yess! but don't be surprised cause I only new to makeup and like most beginners of course I started out with other brands, which are really inexpensive. So yeah, this is totally getting me hyped, anddd… of course I've tried all the things I actually put them on as soon as I received them, expect two things, which I still haven't tired It's one of those where I had a feeling I was going to love it not to mention that I seen everyone use it over and over again I am in love!
What's Great About This?
It lets you get your hands on all these things you want the most for like the price of one, also lets say you do want more of each product, you can simply purchase it anytime however if by any chance it doesn't work for you 'well' let's just say you saved yourself a lot of money. win, win?
Why I Purchased It From Macy's?
Well, one reason… there are no shipping requirements on Macy's, they ship beauty products for free. Me, I always buy a few things at a time that's why it works best for me. It retails for $25 plus tax on both Macy's and Too Faced but watch out for eBay lol.
What's In It?
Now to the fun part finally after my long chit chatter lol so here's what you get in this set, the products speak for themselves 🙂 and almost all of you are familiar with them just like I am but I just wanted to share this purchase with you for two reasons; one, it was my first purchase from 'TOO FACED' which is exciting 🙂 two, if you're like me and looked at this set for a while but wasn't sure if it was worth it, then you can see all of the products in detail, like their size, colors and all. Here we go…
There you have it guys, all five products! I had so much fun just creating this post, now let's see if you all enjoy it just as much. (I haven't tried the primers yet) but yeah, if you would like a full individual review of any of these to let me know in the comments below, as well as which one of these is your top favorite. Thank you for all your love so far, you guys are awesome! xoxo
Until Next Time,
Stay Confidently Beautiful

Americans voted to repudiate the previous years, dominated by terror attacks and Code Orange alerts and anthrax scares, and thankless semicolonial soldiering in corners of the map no one cared about. They were under the sway of a desperate hope that wars can simply come to an end when one side decides it's all a bit of a bore," he writes. "But as Israel understands by now, sometimes who you are is more important than anything you do. And sometimes who you are is an offense to those indifferent to anything you might or might not do. America will discover, as Israel did, that a one-way urge for normaliut will lead to a more dangerous world."
Steyn goes on to predict that "America will discover, as Britain has in twilight, that, long after imperial grandeur has faded, imperial resentments linger. We will not be left alone to fade into second-rate status. We will be taunted and humiliated and haunted and chased on the way down." The result will be "something terrifying...This will be the greatest step backwards for the civilization that built the modern world and spread its blessings across the map. There will be no new world order... The only way to prevent it is to act, and act quickly."
Okay, let's think fast.
What if the U.S. builds the biggest, most powerful, most technologically advanced military in the world -- in fact, let's spend more on the military than all of our credible rivals combined. After that, we can open military bases in 50 or 60 countries, so that we've got every region of the world covered; make sure we own more than half the world's aircraft carriers; and identify 150 countries of strategic importance where we can deploy American troops. What's that you say? We've already done all that? It's almost as if we haven't chosen to cede an extremely interventionist version of global leadership, for better or worse.
Steyn is a man of contradictions. He insists that America's debt and deficit are existential threats to our future... even as he urges us to maintain a permanent semi-imperial military presence all over the world at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars per year... and insists, as he cheers on every excess in the War on Terrorism, that he is a Tea Party affiliated champion of limited government. He's a guy who can insist, quite eloquently and with appropriate righteousness, that the 1st Amendment is sacrosanct, even when cartoonists operating under its protection offend Muslim extremists; but who cannot be bothered to defend the 4th Amendment or lament the expansion of executive power or the innocents wrongly detained at Gitmo.
In Steyn world, there is never any worry that powers accrued in the War on Terrorism will be turned against non-terrorists. He wants small government imperialism, implemented by Jack Bauer-like men: tough enough to know that the constitution isn't a suicide pact, but so deferential to it that they'd never depart from a strict interpretation of the Founders' vision. In this way, they'll be able to fund interventions the world over, balance budgets, and never raise taxes.
It's a fantastical vision.
As absurd is Steyn's implicit assertion that Obama is ending America's global ambitions. If only it were so. True to form, Steyn quotes a couple lines from a speech to characterize Obama's foreign policy views, totally ignoring the many actions he's taken since becoming Commander in Chief: surging troops into Afghanistan, trying to negotiate a troop extension in Iraq, planning to send more forces elsewhere in the Persian Gulf after America pulls out, waging an undeclared drone war in an unknown number of countries, killing hundreds of "suspected militants" in Pakistan alone, sending commandos into a sovereign, nuclear armed nation to kill Osama bin Laden, dispatching DEA paramilitary forces in Latin America, helping to topple Moammar Gaddafi in a war waged without Congressional approval. I hate Obama's foreign policy. Others defend his militarism and America's reach. Steyn just conjures a pretend Obama to rail against in the course of arguing for fiscal discipline and a re-commitment to remaking the globe, even as we're doing the latter, and failing to do the former partly as a result.
"Even in my deepest and most pessimistic vision, I can see a different future for the United States," Steyn writes near the end of his essay. "The United States is the only country in the world where a mass movement took to the streets in 2009 to say we could do just fine if you, the government, stayed the hell out of our pockets and the hell out of our lives. That fact, that populist refusal to be Europeanized, represents the best hope for this country. Those now-caricatured, much-maligned Tea Partiers moved the meter of public discourse significantly back in the direction of sanity."
He goes on to invoke a libertarian icon:
In 1975, Milton Friedman said this: "I do not believe that the solution to our problem is simply to elect the right people. The important thing is to establish a political climate of opinion which will make it politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing. Unless it is politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing, the right people will not do the right thing either, or if they try, they will shortly be out of office."
Just so. Every time Barack Obama stands at his teleprompter and is forced to pretend that he's interested in deficit reduction, we have taken a step toward that Milton Friedman reality. You have to create the conditions, as the Tea Party and the town hall meetings did, whereby the wrong people are forced to do the right things.
It's a wonder that Steyn believes, as Milton Friedman most certainly would not, that encouraging the president to act as a global hegemon is consistent with creating conditions that would force him to govern as a small government conservative. War is the health of the state, as it was when the Alien and Sedition Acts were justified on the basis of the possibility of war with France, when Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus, when Woodrow Wilson pushed through the Espionage Act and the Sedition Act, when Franklin D. Roosevelt imprisoned Japanese Americans, when young men were drafted to fight in the Vietnam War, and when President Bush passed the Patriot Act and argued that he could declare Americans enemy combatants. Is there a war-fighting, small government-loving imperial hegemon Steyn can point us to?

ARM, the designers of the chip architecture that dominates smartphones and tablets, has a message for Intel: Come and join us.
Despite years of effort, Intel has made little headway in getting smartphone and tablet makers to embrace its line of x86 chips for mobile devices. As a result, some pundits have called on the company to ditch the effort and embrace ARM's technology.
In a meeting I had with him here in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show, James Bruce, ARM's lead mobile strategist, declined to comment on whether that notion might soon become a possibility. But he cheered the idea.
Noting that Intel is reputed to have the best fabrication plants in the world, Bruce said that "surely they should put the best processor on it;" meaning, of course, an ARM-based one.
In our conversation, Bruce touted ARM's success and dismissed any notion that Intel is making any headway in the marketplace. Some 7.9 billion (yes, with a "B") ARM-based chips were shipped inside of various devices last year, more than half of them going into mobile phones and tablets. Now, only a portion of those chips were the high-powered application processors that Intel is trying to compete against; included in the number of chips shipped in smartphones includes those used in their wireless radios, in their touchscreen controls and other functions. But the company clearly dominates the smartphone market.
By contrast, according to Bruce, some estimates place Intel's share of the market at about 0.2 percent. While that's greater market share than the company had a year ago, it's obviously still a very small drop in the bucket of the overall market. And, as Bruce noted, the money Intel is seeing from those chips almost certainly isn't making up for all the money it's invested in the effort.
While Intel is still struggling to get into the mobile business, ARM continues to set its sights further afield. ARM chips already have dominant positions in the smart TV and digital camera markets. And the company is seeing chips based on its technology show up in devices ranging from the Pebble smart watch to Parrot's AR Drone.
But the company is focused particularly on computing. This past year saw the release of the first ARM-based Windows computers and the first ARM-based computers running Google's Chrome OS. While the ARM-flavored version of Windows — dubbed Windows RT — has seen tepid support from manufacturers and has been criticized for being a hobbled version of the operating system, Bruce said it's too early to evaluate the effort. The first Android phones saw limited sales, and it took two years or so for the software to really start taking off with consumers, he noted.
"What you've got to look at is how they grow the ecosystem over the next year or so," he said.
But ARM's computing efforts may come full circle back to its mobile phones. Two years ago, Motorola released the Atrix smartphone, which switched to a desktop-like interface when you plugged it into a notebook or desktop dock. Motorola later abandoned the effort, but it may be coming back as the chips become more powerful.
In the next year or so, according to Bruce, the ARM chip in your smartphone will have sufficient power to run full desktop applications, meaning that the only computer you may need may be the one in your pocket. Helping with that effort is ARM's "big.little" technology, in which a system on a chip includes both high-powered cores for processor-intensive tasks and highly efficient ones that can run everyday functions without using much power. In the future, your phone might switch on the high-powered processors when you plug it into a wall socket, allowing you to do the type of computing tasks you'd typically do on a desktop today.
"We're literally on the cusp of that," he said.
Something more for Intel to worry about.

Climbing News – North Otago Section
By: Nick Shearer
Source: North Otago Section Newsletter (May 2018)
Murray and Bronwyn Judge, and John Hamilton attended the Otago Southland/ Canterbury rock meet at Long Beach. Participants camped at the Long Beach hall and had a social evening including a BBQ meal on the Saturday night. It is shame this get-together is not taken advantage of by more climbers.
Over the last few months Murray and John have been busy at Long Beach and Doctors Point. A short slab climb at 17/18 on the Manhattan Wall has been added. This can be accessed via Polaris with a little traverse. Further right a two-pitch route can be accessed by rapping in from the top of Hell's Kitchen or climbed via the via Ferrata chains leading across past the start of Hell's Kitchen, a juggy 30m 17/18 first pitch. The second pitch is yet to be climbed; there is a tricky bulge yet to be conquered.
At Doctors Point Murray has put up a 25m 18, downgraded by Bronwyn to 17, an access 12, a set of stairs, plus another 20m 16. John put up a 25m 14 traversing climb which has yet to have its final clean. Several trailer loads of dirt and sand were shovelled to expose the underlying rock leaving a nice heap on the beach below these climbs.
Work is ongoing to create a series of climbs from the beach on 20m of untouched rock.
Nick and Dara Shearer and Clare and Kevin Kearney climbed Mt Kohurau.
Nick Shearer had a day trip to the Thurneysen Glacier on the southern flanks of Mt Barth, Canyon Creek, Ahuriri Valley.

Study Finds Oxygen is Number One among Cable Operators,
As the Network They Plan to Add by End of 2006
NEW YORK, January 24, 2006 -- Oxygen, the only network owned and operated by women, is a favorite among cable operators, according to the 2005 Beta Research Cable Operator Carriage Study, released today. Asked three different ways, Oxygen consistently ranked number one as the network that cable operators are most interested in carrying and most likely to add to their analog or expanded basic lineup. These results come on the heels of Oxygen�s milestone carriage agreements with Comcast in December 2005, and Echostar Communications, in January 2006, which netted the network eight million new subscribers, making Oxygen available in 65 million cable homes.
The study released the following findings about Oxygen:
� Oxygen ranked number one, unaided, among all cable operators polled, as the network they plan to add to analog or expanded basic by end of 2006.
� Cable operators ranked Oxygen as the number one mid-sized network they�re very interested in carrying by end of 2006.
� Cable operators who plan to add one or more channels to basic or expanded basic also ranked Oxygen as the number one mid-sized network they�re very interested in carrying by end of 2006.
�As an independently owned and operated cable network, it is wonderful to have this kind of support from the operator side,� said Lisa Gersh, President and Chief Operating Officer, Oxygen Media. �We have grown our subscriber base by 20 percent in the past year by creating fresh, original programming for young women that makes Oxygen the most requested network in markets where we have yet to gain carriage.�
About Oxygen Media
Oxygen, the only cable network owned and operated by women, is currently available in 65 million homes. The network was launched in 2000 to fill a void in the television landscape -- creating a network targeted to younger women. Oxygen is rewriting the rulebook for women's television, with the most original programming of all the women's networks including Campus Ladies, Mo�Nique�s Fat Chance and Talk Sex with Sue Johanson. Geraldine Laybourne, the network's founder, Chairman and CEO, has led the company to be a strong advocate for women. Through programs like The Mentor's Walk, Oxygen's national program for bringing along the next generation, and "Who Cares About Girls," Oxygen's new documentary series -- Oxygen is creating The New Girls Network.

By Matt Noonan | @MattyNoonz11
10 years ago I started a blog in my college dorm room.
It wasn't the site you see today that offers a variety of content from podcasts to videos to polls on New England Division III basketball, football, and lacrosse teams, and much more, but instead just one person's opinion on sports, both locally and nationally.
My goal was to ditch my little site after I graduated college in May 2010, but unfortunately, that plan never happened.
Instead, I continued blogging on local and national sports. I started a podcast and interviewed anyone that was willing to give me 15, 20 or 30 minutes to discuss a few hot stove topics over the phone – I am still amazed at the people that responded to a no-name blogger that was eager to interview them, but I am extremely thankful to folks like Bill Hancock (Executive Director of the Bowl Championship Series), Damon Amendolara (CBS Sports) and various SB Nation bloggers that made the beginning of this journey so much fun.
When I wasn't podcasting or blogging, I was creating videos on a slew of topics from 'March Madness' to National Football League (NFL) news to asking strangers in Norwood, Massachusetts their thoughts on the 2011 Boston Celtics.
Of course, there were other videos, too, including me running around in my parents' backyard with a soccer ball – what was I thinking?
As time went on, I decided to expand my content coverage map to hyper-local sports in New England, including stories on Massachusetts high school football games at Gillette Stadium to the Hockey East championships at the TD Garden. Additionally, I got to cover other events at Gillette and the Garden over the past few years, as well, while also finagling my way into Fenway Park to blog about 'Frozen Fenway' and the Harvard-Yale Football introduction for their 135th playing of 'The Game' last November.
Of course, there are other memories from the past 10 years that make me simile, including a post-game standup with one of my good friends from college, Dan Libon, following an important Massachusetts high school basketball tournament game in Brockton, Massachusetts. There was also the time I covered the 'world's most expensive hot dog' prior to a Brockton Rox contest, too – I didn't eat it in case you were wondering, but it did look yummy.
Starting Noontime Sports was truly the best thing for my career – I mean it. The sports journalism and media worlds are not the easiest to crack so having my own site with the freedom (and flexibility) to produce content on daily, weekly or monthly on whatever I want is certainly a luxury, but something I don't take advantage of. This site has allowed me to experiment and try new things, which has helped me pitch ideas that worked here to editors or colleagues for other outlets.
Additionally, Noontime Sports has allowed me to pursue my love of producing content for social media to building a brand and identifying an audience – that is essential for any blogger, podcaster and producer. Once you know what your fans and friends crave, then produce it so they will keep coming back eager for more content.
I can promise you, the fans and readers of Noontime Sports, that I will continue to do my absolute best to provide you with content going forward on small colleges and high schools to the occasional Boston sports piece to interesting conversations on my podcast.
I can't believe it has been 10 years, but today, I am thanking my 20-year-old self for starting this site and paving this journey, which has allowed me to pursue my love of sports media.
Here is to another 10 years – maybe more – of fun and engaging content on hyperlocal sports to anything else that makes this job so much fun!

The Warrington
Last fall we met with Alyssa and Sam in Center City Philadelphia for their engagement session. Even then we knew their wedding day would be a blast. The two of them made such a nice, sweet, loving couple, we just knew their celebration of love will be nothing but that. We got to do their photos ahead of the ceremony after the two saw each other for the first time that day at Gasper Landscape Design, a garden center run by a close family friend. We were thankful for having been able to use the grounds as we found so many cool little nooks to use as background for our photos. We then headed to The Warrington for the main event, where vows were said, rings exchanged, wine drank, and shoes danced off. What a glorious wedding! Congratulations to Sam and Alyssa!

Individual Developers and Small Teams Receive Enterprise-Class Build Acceleration with New Developer and Workgroup Editions
Electric Cloud®, the smart development cloud company, today announced ElectricAccelerator 6.0, which brings the power of reliable build acceleration to individual developers and workgroups with two new products, ElectricAccelerator Developer Edition (EADE) and ElectricAccelerator Workgroup Edition (EAWE).
ElectricAccelerator 6.0 lets individual developers and small teams maximize build acceleration by fully harnessing the power of the cores available on an individual machine for parallel processing, better utilization of resources and reduced wait time in the build queue. EADE and EAWE include all the acceleration capabilities of ElectricAccelerator, including the patented dependency analysis that speeds the build process by optimizing parallel build execution. ElectricAccelerator is the only solution that allows organizations to leverage the power of the desktop, the power of a build cloud or both for the same build. It uniquely allows developers to accelerate builds when offline and take advantage of the build cloud when on the network.
"In our increasingly Agile world, fast builds are more important than ever," said Electric Cloud CEO Mike Maciag. "Our annual customer survey showed that more than 60 percent of our users see developer builds as the greatest opportunity for ElectricAccelerator's technology. We are excited to deliver 10-20x faster builds and complex build analytics to individual developers and workgroups."
One Electric Cloud customer, a leading semiconductor manufacturer with a number of satellite offices, uses ElectricAccelerator to speed its software development cycle. Dealing with geographically dispersed teams presents a challenge, as developers in the satellite offices do not always have network access back to the main office. Using EADE allows this company to give developers in each of its satellite offices access to the same build acceleration the main office enjoys, without worrying about network connectivity. EADE leverages multi-core machines to give developers in this organization maximum acceleration on their machines, and allows them to realize greater acceleration when connected to the build cluster.
ElectricAccelerator Developer Edition and ElectricAccelerator Workgroup Edition are available now.
About Electric Cloud, Inc.
Electric Cloud delivers solutions that automate and accelerate the software delivery process. The company's award-winning products help development organizations speed time-to-market, boost developer productivity, and improve software quality while leveraging the operational efficiencies provided by virtual cloud infrastructures.

One of the most extensive collections in Turkey in its respective category, the Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation's Orientalist Painting Collection features oil and watercolor paintings, ornamental art, and engravings from 17th to early 20th century. The collection stands apart with its exclusive focus on the Ottoman world, and although most of the artwork included were produced by Western artists, the collection also contains certain works by Ottoman artists of the period that reflect the cultural exchange between the East and the West. Portraits of Ottoman sultans, state officials and ambassadors, and depictions of clothing that represent various segments of the Ottoman society, scenes from daily life, and views from Istanbul are the most frequent topics in the collection's artwork.
The collection sheds light to a period of three centuries of change in the Western and Ottoman world. After a series of territorial losses in the late 17th century, the Ottoman Empire began sending envoys to the Western nations in an effort to understand them better, and the subsequent increase in diplomatic and commercial relations led to the popularization of the Turkish fashion (Turquerie) in the West. Meanwhile, the Westernization movement in the Ottoman Empire, supported and steered by the palace, quickly expanded from its original focus on the military from the second half of the 18th century to become the main determining characteristic of the cultural environment of the 19th century. During this period, several Ottoman artists studied in the West, and Western artists visited Istanbul for royal commissions and even served as court artists. In parallel with the advent of industrialization in the 19th century, the rise of a strong middle class, increasing opportunities for travel, and the modernizing West's need for a contrast as part of its search for redefining its culture sparked a new interest in the East, giving birth to the cultural phenomenon we now know as Orientalism. Many Western artists came to the Ottoman Empire, especially Istanbul, which they saw as the gateway to the East, to observe and depict the Eastern world through the looking glass of their own culture and personal backgrounds, while many others who lacked the opportunity to travel based their own depictions on other visual sources within their reach, such as engravings, photographs, paintings, and other items from the Eastern world. Their works, exhibited in Paris, London or other European cities and in several instances presented to Ottoman Sultans as gifts by European ambassadors, served as important documents about the artistic values of the Ottoman Empire and the Ottoman society as a whole, particularly in the final two centuries of the empire.
The Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation's Orientalist Painting Collection is presented through long-term thematic exhibitions at the Sevgi and Erdoğan Gönül Gallery, located at the second floor of the Pera Museum.

Immediately north of Bristol, 120 miles west from London, lies the South Gloucestershire region. It's easy to get to. You can reach it via the M4 or M5, and there are two mainline train stations in Bristol. When you need a break, or you're going on holiday, it's easy to get away from. Drive down the M5 and within an hour you'll be in Devon. Or if you're looking to go a little further, Bristol has its own International Airport offering thousands of bargain flights throughout Europe and a regular flight to New York. In fact, the close proximity of Bristol, Bath and Cardiff is one of the reasons why it's such a good place to live. You can choose city life if you like the urban lifestyle, but you've also got an escape route if you want it, with villages and quiet towns all offering a more unhurried pace of life. Of course, you don't have to choose one or the other – our location gives you the best of both worlds. This is particularly true when you're commuting to work.
As we are heading out of Bristol towards South Gloucestershire, most people are going the other way. And vice-versa come the end of the day. Around 90% of houses are privately owned. It's worth noting that we offer Starter Home Initiatives, for specific key workers. If you have children, or you're planning to, childcare facilities in South Gloucestershire are excellent. Naturally, wherever you're based, with three cities on your doorstep, you'll never be far from the kind of facilities you need for your life. There are museums, art centres, and a Zoo in central Bristol. Major new developments at Cribbs Causeway and Longwell Green (both areas within South Gloucestershire) offer mini 'villages', with cinema complexes, fitness centres, restaurants and bars. In fact, Cribbs Causeway is the one of the biggest shopping centres in the South West.
Some facts
• We are the fastest growing area in the South West
• About 50% of the housing has been built since 1964, with most housing privately owned
• Over 57% of the area remains rural, with certain parts of the countryside designated of international importance
• For the most common types of crime, the rate in South Gloucestershire remains below both the national and regional average

With Black Friday nearly upon us, it's nice to know that a number of prominent remasters have been getting price-cuts, with the BioShock trilogy of games that comprise BioShock: The Collection now only £24.99 on both PS4 and XBox One. And whilst Digital Foundry weren't entirely convinced by the remastering efforts, I don't think they can argue when you can get all three games (including all single player DLC) on current gen consoles for less than £25. And that's a pretty damn good bargain by anyone's standards, and a lot better value for money than the kind of rip-off tactics that Nintendo resort to (*cough* Zelda *cough*).

Farm Credit Services of America mobilizes to help S. Dakota producers impacted by drought
OMAHA, NEBRASKA — Farm Credit Services of America (FCSAmerica) today announced the mobilization of staff and financial resources to support the cooperative's producer-owners impacted by drought.
More than three-quarters of South Dakota is in moderate to severe drought and much of the remainder of the state is struggling with abnormal dryness. Yield expectations are down as a result, and acreage enrolled in USDA's Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) has been released by USDA for grazing.
"This drought is a hardship for South Dakota's agricultural producers. It is one more potential impact to farm incomes already affected by low commodity prices," said Doug Stark, FCSAmerica's president and CEO. "Our financial cooperative exists to ensure farmers and ranchers have a dependable lender to see them through tough times. We're putting our financial strength to work for our customers."
FCSAmerica serves more than 10,000 farmers and ranchers in South Dakota, the vast majority of whom have seen crops and pastures impacted by drought. Bob Schmidt, FCSAmerica's senior vice president for the state, said local teams are working with customers to identify strategies to help them manage through the challenges.
"Many of our South Dakota team members have agricultural backgrounds that, paired with years of lending experience, provide a unique understanding of our customers' current needs," Schmidt said. "We encourage all those affected by the drought to visit their local FCSAmerica office to discuss their credit. Our crop insurance agents also are available to meet with customers."
FCSAmerica has customers in areas of Iowa, Nebraska and Wyoming who also are seeing damage to crops and pastures. The cooperative is monitoring developments and responding to emerging needs.
About Farm Credit Services of America Farm Credit Services of America is a customer-owned financial cooperative proud to finance the growth of rural America, including the special needs of young and beginning producers. With $26.9 billion in assets and $4.9 billion in members' equity, FCSAmerica is one of the region's leading providers of credit and insurance services to farmers, ranchers, agribusiness and rural residents in Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wyoming.

THS players enjoy 'elephant-I,' but fall to Jeff West, 41-28
Senior linemen become running backs
November 2, 2010
A long, difficult season can lead a coach to try anything to alter the atmosphere.
As the Tonganoxie High football team entered its Thursday season finale on a seven-game losing streak, coach Mark Elston decided to shake things up for his team's first series.
Instead of having senior quarterback Jeremy Carlisle line up in the backfield with typical cohorts Dylan Scates, Shawn Marin and Ian McClellan, the 5-foot-9 signal caller looked smaller than usual teamed with an atypical jumbo package of seniors Dylan Fosdick, Justin Francis and Cody Stine, all of whom normally serve as linemen.
It may not have helped THS to a victory — Jeff West won, 41-28, at Beatty Field — but Elston said it gave his team some motivation. In the days leading up to the game, Tonganoxie ran its "elephant-I backfield" plays at practice and put it in for the opening drive because, the coach said, he wanted to reward the linemen who never get to touch the ball.
"It was something we put in to have some fun," Elston said. "We just needed something to give us a little spark to look forward to the game."
On the Chieftains' first three plays from scrimmage, the senior linemen converted to ball carriers. Though Fosdick was stopped on third down in the backfield for a loss of a yard and Francis only gained one yard on second down, Stine — listed at 320 pounds — lumbered up the middle for six yards to open the game. The big man said he wasn't nervous about his chance in the spotlight.
"I was ready. I've been ready for that," he said. "I've been asking all year if I could run the ball. He finally let me run it."
Both Stine and Francis had pestered Elston about running the formation in a game. After a short gain on his only career carry, Francis joked he should have done some running back drills in preparation.
"I was really excited," the lineman said. "The only thing that could have made it more exciting was getting a touchdown."
Elston finally gave in to the linemen's request, he said, because he wanted to show his appreciation for their play. Fosdick closed this year playing through pain with a rib injury, Francis lined up throughout his senior season with a bum left shoulder and Stine improved tremendously in his one season of playing for THS, Elston said.
Carlisle said he and his teammates enjoyed watching the big men get the chance to touch the football and try to make a play.
"Our senior class, no matter what the outcome of the season, worked their butts off this year," the quarterback said after playing his final game on the gridiron for Tonganoxie. "We just wanted to reward them and tried to think of a way that we could reward some of the guys that don't always get the glory."
The positive vibes of the elephant backfield might have carried THS (1-8 overall, 0-3 district) through the first two quarters, as it entered the second half with the district game tied at 14. There was little glory to go around, however, against the Tigers in the second half, when Jeff West outscored Tonganoxie 27-14.
Though the Chieftains kept JWHS (4-5, 1-2) from reaching the end zone on the first possession of the third quarter with an interception by senior Austin Vickers, they were flagged for two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties after the play and had to start the ensuing drive on their own 12-yard line instead of out near midfield.
Elston said Tonganoxie, which ended the season with an eight-game losing streak, had been "snake-bitten" throughout the skid.
"Just little things like that have been killing us all year," he said.
Injuries certainly contributed to the team's loss total, but Carlisle said the players weren't looking for excuses.
"We can always look back on our season and say what if this happened, what if that happened," he said, referring to the injuries. "We just went out there and we played our hearts out every game and you really couldn't ask for more."
After Tonganoxie pasted Bishop Ward, 54-6, in Week 1, Francis said, he never would have thought that would be the team's only victory.
"I never really saw it coming, to be honest. I kind of bought in to the whole 9-0 thing but things just kept going wrong," he said. "It just went downhill. I wish it had been a lot different."

This was nice to see. The players know that Coach Elston cares. That's all that matters. Let the bashers keep bashing and the washed-up armchair quarterbacks keep yapping.
mldmsd 9 years, 11 months ago
No, not me.
Jason Bailey 9 years, 12 months ago
Elston cares....you're funny. Elston is in the same vein as Mike Leach and Jim Leavitt. It is his way, or no way.
wayjosey 9 years, 12 months ago
To Jason2007.......I wonder whose way it should be, he is the coach, most people, when you don't win, they want to tell you how bad a job one did coaching........Just hang in their Coach Elston, there are better years.............
sickofit 9 years, 11 months ago
yes...better years. They're called retirement. He should try it.

Now that it's September, it's time to trade ethereal rosés for full-bodied reds. While summer calls for refreshing, fruity wines, fall requires savory wines that pair well with hearty autumn foods. Although pinot noir and cabernet sauvignon are great options for stocking a fall-friendly bar cart, we're making a case for expanding your palette beyond these seasonal staples.
For inspired fall wine recommendations, we reached out to master sommelier Chuck Furuya, and he did not disappoint. From an earthy dolcetto to a cherry garnacha to a bold rosé, the master sommelier spilled his must-sip seasonal wines. Consider the following list your cheat sheet for decoding the most intimidating aisle in the grocery store—just in time for fall dinner parties (and Thanksgiving).
Ahead are five sommelier-approved fall wines that will carry you through the season.
Although often overshadowed by pinot noir and cabernet sauvignon, Furuya believes syrah belongs on your fall wine list. "It has the masculinity, the darkness, and the bravado of cabernet sauvignon, but it can have the texture of pinot noir," says Furuya. "Well-grown grenache or syrah can create a step ladder that lies between pinot noir and cabernet sauvignon," he elaborates.
The sommelier-approved bottle: 2012 Ojai Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard ($45)
The Sommelier Endorsement: "The Ojai Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard Bottling is one of the very best syrahs out of the New World, year in and year out," says Furuya of this bottle selection. "It's not light and ethereal like pinot noir, and in this case, it doesn't have the bravado of a typical Napa Valley cabernet sauvignon, but it is masculine, savory, warming and it's got that musk smell and mojo reminiscent of the Old World, making it quite ideal for fall and winter enjoyment."
Known for its juicy fruit, structure, and bitterness, this wine pairs well with earthy, high-acid foods like roasted peppers, mushrooms, and eggplant, making it an ideal choice for an Italian- or Mediterranean-inspired meal, according to Furuya.
The sommelier-approved bottle: 2014 Palmina Dolcetto ($22)
The sommelier endorsement: "It has that masculine, savory, earthy, dark kind of edge to it that Italian red wines have, but it also has more juiciness, a more deliciousness, because of the generous California sunshine," Furuya describes. "All this makes it over-deliver for the dollar."
That's right—you don't have to give up rosé when the temperature starts to drop. "Think about the Thanksgiving feast for a second," muses Furuya. "There's the roast turkey, there are the fixings, there's the stuffing, all this rich savory food—then there's the cranberry sauce," Furuya continues. "You eat the cranberry, so it refreshes your palate so you can go back to eating all that rich, savory food. Masculine-style rosés can interact with Thanksgiving food just as the cranberry does," Furuya points out.
The sommelier-approved bottle: 2016 Scherrer Rosé ($26)
The sommelier endorsement: "This is a delicious rosé. To me, it's one of the best rosés out of California by far," says Furuya. "For the summertime, I would have recommended a lighter, more ethereal option, but you need a rosé that has more substance for fall."
Zinfandel is a great wine to pick up from a local shop over the coming months, according to Furuya. Boasting flavors of blackberry jam, baking spices, and sweet tobacco, it's an ideal wine for sipping next to a roaring fire on a chilly fall day.
The sommelier-approved bottle: 2015 Ancient Peaks Zinfandel ($16)
The sommelier endorsement: "It's a delicious, hearty, and savory zinfandel that over-delivers for the dollar," Furuya explains. "You're getting a real zinfandel, from a family-owned project, it's not just a commercial venture, and it's authentically Paso Robles."
Grenache-based red wines, best known for their cherry nuances, can be a great choice for the fall season, however Furuya suggests finding a bottle that provides something a bit more than strong black fruit notes. "The issue with grenache is that it's typically all about cherry-like fruit—ripe and forward," explains Furuya. "In the beginning, it can be wonderfully delicious, but after the third or fourth sip, I want something more." Luckily, Furuya has a great bottle recommendation that showcases grenache in its finest form.
The sommelier-approved bottle: 2015 Sucette Grenache ($58)
The sommelier endorsement: "The Sucette rendition is so savory and warm and delicious," says Furuya. "This wine is hard to find because the production is so small, but if people want to taste what grenache is capable of, this is the one I'm recommending."

Balancing wildlife conservation and indigenous people's rights
Indigenous Voice, Honolulu, Hawai'i
During the recent IUCN Congress in Hawaii, four of Nepal's protected areas (Banke and Bardia National Parks and Parsa and Shuklaphanta Wildlife Reserves) were recognised as the CATS (Conservation Assured Tiger Standards)-managed protected areas. Earlier in 2015, Chitwan National Park was recognised as the world's first CATS-managed protected area.
Talking to Nepali journalists in Hawaii, Dr Maheshwor Dhakal of the Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation (DNPWC) said: "CATS is a set of highest standards that every protected area must strive to achieve. We are proud that our three national parks and two wildlife reserves have met these standards. The world can learn a lot from our experience and way of conservation. We have 121 tigers, we aim to double this number by 2022."
CATS is determined by how a protected area is managed, tiger habitat, involvement of local people in conservation etc. "Recognition of our protected areas has is approval of our conservation approach," said Dhakal. " It shows we are moving in the right direction, and we are encouraged to do more."
Nepal was also hailed during the IUCN conference for its role in conservation of endangered vultures. Delegates from African countries were amazed at the way Nepal progressed in vulture conservation, and expressed their commitment from emulate the Himalaya country's success. The ban on the use of diclophenac, a drug used in treatment of livestock, was a major breakthrough in vulture conservation. Nepali farmers had long been using this drug to cure their cattle. But this drug was so strong that it would remain in cattle even after they died. And vultures were dying after feeding on carcasses infected with diclophenac. After this ban came into effect, the number of vulture is going up.
Nepal's conservation story is really commendable. But when we boast of our conservation success, we tend to ignore the price that Indigenous People have to pay. Indigenous people have been displaced from their ancestral lands, and prevented from using natural resources in the name of national parks and wildlife reserves. The state's responsibility is to protect its Indigenous Peoples too, not just wildlife. When Indigenous People fight for their rights over natural resources, they are often accused of obstructing development. But all they want is sustainable development. If anyone needs development the most, it is Indigenous People living without basic amenities. But they also understand the real value of natural resources. So they want sustainable development. Nepal has ratified some international laws and treaties that ensure Indigenous People's rights over local natural resources, but has failed to implement them.
The concept of sustainability is not only associated with development. Conservation efforts should also be sustainable. And sustainable conservation is possible only when we maintain balance between protecting wildlife and safeguarding rights of indigenous people.
