'This Introduction contains nothing which has not already been written; the bouquet that I offer you is made up of the same flowers, but I have arranged them differently. Nearly everyone who has written about the spiritual life has had in mind those who live apart from the world, or at least the devotion they advocate would lead to such retirement. My intention is to write for those who have to live in the world and who, according to their state, to all outward appearances have to lead an ordinary life; and who often enough, will not think of undertaking a devout life, considering it impossible; no one, they believe, ought to aspire to the palm of Christian piety, while surrounded by the affairs of the world.
I will show them that a strong and resolute person may live in the world without being tainted by it, find spiritual springs amid its salt waters, and fly through the flames of temptation without burning the wings on which they soar to God. True, it is no easy task and must be undertaken with much more zeal than many have so far shown, and I hope that this work will help those who undertake it with a generous heart.
My words are addressed to 'Philothea', because it is a name signifying one who loves God, or at least desires to do so.'
In considering the 'Practice of Virtue', which occupies one section of the book, St Francis de Sales has this to say on the subject of fidelity:-
Fidelity on all Occasions
'The sacred Spouse in the Canticle of Canticles says that his beloved has ravished his heart with one glance of an eye, with one ringlet straying on her neck. Now of all the exterior parts of the body none is more noble either in the way it is made or in its action than the eye, and none of less account than the hair, and so the sacred Spouse indicates that he finds not only the great works of the devout acceptable, but also their very least, and that to please him we must be faithful in all things great and small since we can in either case ravish his heart by love.
Be prepared then, Philothea, to undergo many great trials for his sake, even martyrdom; resolve, should he ask, to give him all you hold most dear: father, mother, brother, husband, wife, children, your eyes, your very life; such sacrifices must find your heart ready.
But as long as his Divine Providence spares you these great and painful trials, does not, for example, ask for your eyes, at least give him your hair; in other words, bear patiently the small trials that are your daily lot, those little inconveniences and trifling losses which are so many opportunities for proving your love, winning his heart, and making it all your own. A headache, a toothache, or a cold; the bad temper of one's husband or wife; meeting with disdain or sulkiness; a glass broken; gloves, a ring, or handkerchief lost; the inconvenience of going to bed early or of rising early to pray or go to Communion; a feeling of embarrassment in performing certain devotions in public; all of these things, when accepted and embraced with love, are most pleasing to God who for a draught of cold water has promised his faithful a sea of perfect happiness, and as such opportunities occur every moment they enable us to heap up spiritual riches if only we take advantage of them.
When I read about all the raptures and spiritual transports of St Catherine of Siena, of her wise counsels and conferences, I had no doubt that she had ravished the heart of her heavenly Spouse with the eyes of her soul; but I was equally impressed to find that she worked in her father's kitchen, humbly turned the spit, looked after the fire, cooked the food, kneaded the bread and carried out the most menial household tasks with a heart full of burning love for God; and I set no less store on the humble reflections she used to make while performing such lowly tasks than on the ecstasies and raptures she so often experienced, as a reward perhaps for her humility and abjection. She used to imagine, for example, when cooking her father's meals, that she was another Martha doing it for our Lord; she saw our Lady in her mother and the Apostles in her brothers, encouraging herself in this way to serve in spirit the heavenly court, and carrying out her menial tasks with great delight seeing them as the will of God.
Saint Catherine of Siena (1347-1380)
I give you this example Philothea, to show you how important it is to direct our actions, however humble, to the service of God and advise you most earnestly to imitate the woman praised so highly by Solomon who put her hand to strong, noble and lofty things yet did not neglect her spinning wheel, she hath put out her hand to strong things, and her fingers have taken hold of the spindle. Put your hands to strong things, Philothea, by prayer and meditation, by frequenting the sacraments and teaching others to love God, inspiring their hearts to good; in other words by doing all the great and important things whenever you have the opportunity. But do not forget your spinning wheel, that is to say, practise the humble and lowly virtues which grow, like flowers, at the foot of the cross: helping the poor, visiting the sick, looking after your family with all that this involves, above all practising that diligence which permits no idleness, all the while making use of such considerations as I have mentioned in the case of St Catherine.
Great opportunities of serving God are rare, but little ones are frequent, and our Lord has told us that if we are faithful over little things, he will commit great things to our charge. Do everything in God's name, then, and it will be done well; whether you eat or drink, take recreation or turn the spit, you can profit in God's sight by doing them because it is his will.
"Come follow me and I will make you fishers of men" Mark 1: 17-20

Forest, or maybe all of us should show you some "Love", boner-biting nimrod.
As for this, thank you! Someone finally agrees rap isn't as great as most people claim it is. Yes, Usher does suck ass, A LOT. I kind of like one song of Eminem's, but other than that, I'd rather hear my head being grinded in a wood chipper o.o.
Keep up the amazing work!

I think you should also do one on emo people. They deserve a little *love* too! (cracks knuckles)
| Forest Passant chapter 1 . 8/26/2005
I think my review should count for at least four normal people's reviews, because I am so much cooler than they are.
So there!

Can't spell crap without rap. Hehehe, everyone loves a bit of controversy. I forgot this place existed for a while so, I think people will forgive you for just neglecting one story.
| Feng the Tears of a Phoenix chapter 2 . 8/15/2005
Thank God I am not the only one who hates shitty text talk. Personally I like things that annoy me (Which explains most of my friends) and annoying people back is fun... But for some reason doesn't win you many friends... I wonder why. Lol, I completely love ths branding idea I know many people who deserve a good branding.

We are interested to use the X540 Twinville Dual Port 10GbE MAC/PHY in our application. The marketing data sheet
Intel® Ethernet Controllers and PHYs
lists the operating temperature at 0-55C. Yet the data sheet
on pg 1188 lists a maximum case temperature of Tcase Max = 107C.
Please elaborate on the difference and meaning between these two figures. We need the 0-70C temperature range if we are to use this part.
Thank you.

Sharon, thanks so much for checking on me! I miss my blog and intend to get back to it. I have had several things going on in my life for awhile; my husband hurt his back in April and was in a wheelchair for some time and then had surgery in August. He is still unable to drive but hopefully soon he can get back to work. I have spent all of my time taking care of him and just kind of lost interest with all that was going on. I also lost my job at the end of May & have spent a good deal of time towards finding another one. I do think about my blog often and hope to get back to it soon. Thanks again for thinking of me!Delete

All, I was able to track down the general location of an RFI problem I've been hearing since December. It's in the vicinity of 3 new homes on a cul-de-sac not far from my QTH. I'm told the pulse noise sounds like the RFI from an invisible electric fence. At this point, it's hard to tell which home it's coming from with the HF mobile because the signal strength is overwhelming at the location. I'll have to get up close with a portable AM radio; I'll probably need some shielding around it. Wish I knew exactly what the noise was; I'd hate to 'accuse' a neighbor of causing RFI and have it turn out to be the power company. I have a recording if anyone is interested. The question is, what to do in the worse case scenerio if the home owner decides not to take action to remedy the problem? Anyone on the reflector been through this before?

Scott F. Evans
It has been a rather bleak summer for movies in 2016, filled with expendable remakes and banal sequels. As a matter of fact, most of the better films of the season have actually been smaller, original pieces. One of the best might just be Hell or High Water, directed by David Mackenzie, with a script by Taylor Sheridan. It's a terrific little crime film layered over a character study and social commentary. If that's not enough, it's also a modern day Western.
In a nutshell, Hell or High Water is the story of two brothers who rob banks across West Texas, while on the run from a pair of Texas Rangers. On the surface it's a fairly simple story, but once you begin to peel away the layers, the film becomes considerably more complex. It's not some high-octane thriller, nor is it completely plot driven. The film succeeds at both, and presents some stunning character work by the entire cast. Mackenzie offers solid but unobtrusive direction. He and cinematographer Giles Nuttgens shoot beautiful vistas that pay homage to John Ford, while presenting the moral and literal bankruptcy of the New West.
Sheridan's screenplay is what really drives Hell or High Water. The plot teeters right at the edge of convolution, but the characters are interesting enough to keep the audience engaged and willing to go along for the ride. Sheridan includes some witty wordplay that is unquestionably offensive, but perfectly suited to the the nature of the characters.
Hell or High Water is also an actor's piece. The cast provides the final element that makes this film work so well. Chris Pine does some of the best work of his career as Toby Howard, the younger of the two brothers. He anchors the film with a somber, thoughtful performance. Ben Foster is the elder Tanner Howard. Foster exercises precise restraint to keep from coming completely unhinged and falling into shtick.
Jeff Bridges nearly resurrects Rooster Cogburn (True Grit) as the aging Texas Ranger Marcus Hamilton. Although Hamilton is a collection of clichés, Bridges elevates the character to keep him from becoming just another trope. Rounding out the cast is Gil Birmingham as Hamilton's long suffering partner Alberto Parker. He and Bridges get some of the best lines in the film.
Hell or High Water is definitely worth a watch on the big screen. At just over 90 minutes, it delivers more story and character than films with twice the run-time and ten times the budget.

People tend to connect blockchain with cyber currencies like bitcoin, but in what other ways is the distributed ledger technology being put to work today?
In situations where there are multiple parties involved in a transaction, distributed ledger technology (DLT) can help create a single "truth." For example, processing a trade in the financial industry involves multiple parties, their IT systems and multiple departments across those trade participants. Processing the transaction over distributed ledger technology offers significant efficiencies over current practices. Instead of copying the data and storing it in multiple databases, processing with DLT can be validated and time stamped to confirm that all parties are recording the same messages. That saves significant amounts of duplication of effort as well as errors and reconciliation. We're looking at that as at least one of the uses.
For insurers and reinsurers, are we still in the testing phase for the technology?
Absolutely. I haven't come across any full application that's in production or being used across a specific type of business. However, there are pilot projects under way. The R3 consortium is in the process of working on three or four pilot projects in insurance. There are a couple of other examples. AIG and Standard Chartered did a project using a specific type of distributed ledger technology called hyper ledger fabric, working with IBM to create a commercial insurance master policy. Allianz did a pilot project to create a smart contract using distributed ledger technology for catastrophe swap contracts. All of these are pilot projects. I'm not sure there's anything that's in production or being widely used.
How do you see distributed ledger technology being used in insurance going forward?
My personal perspective is that the low-hanging fruit is back-office efficiency gains.
When a transaction gets executed in insurance and reinsurance, there are multiple parties—especially in reinsurance, it is usually a multiparty transaction. By using distributed ledger technology, we can avoid counterparties' recording their own version of "the truth" on their systems and then having to deal with the inefficiencies and complexities and reconciliation. All that can be eliminated if distributed ledger technology is used to recall the transaction; that then can be used by multiple parties. That is the near-term application of this technology.
How will the technology impact areas such as claims?
Claims follow contracts. When a contract is executed between different parties using a DLT framework, then all parties that are involved now have access to that, and only authorized parties can make a change. As soon as a change is made, then every party that is on that distributed ledger gets notified of that change. In theory, you could put claims as one of the nodes on that distributed ledger, and as soon as a claim occurs, it triggers a payment that then gets notified to everybody that's on the ledger. That may be a little far out. One way that may happen soon is a claim gets notified to the ledger by the party experiencing the claim and as soon as that happens everybody on that distributed ledger gets notified that there was a claim. Ultimately, that's connected to payment systems or banks. If DLT verifies that it is a legitimate claim, and all parties on the network agree to that, then that claim can be paid directly as well without any manual intervention, without any duplicate data entry.
Can those claims be tied to a parametric trigger?
That's a lot easier. Those are what's called self-executing smart contracts. Once you agree to that smart contract, as soon as an index triggers, like the PCS Catastrophe Loss Index or another index like what New Paradigm is doing with wind, then the entire process happens through the ledger automatically in terms of payments and everything.
Can you tell us about your participation in the R3 Centre of Excellence and how this will expedite the spread of distributed ledger technology in the industry?
At TigerRisk, we are focused on staying on top of technological developments. There are a couple of different aspects to our participation in R3's Centre of Excellence. First, we can stay abreast of the developments in the DLT world through the R3 consortium. As a member of the consortium, we have access to all the projects that are done by the consortium, all the research materials and other information.
Second, we can work with R3 to solve some specific issues, such as bringing efficiency to the back-office process. R3 has a DLT platform called Corda, and we are working on a prototype using that platform to see if we can create this DLT framework to improve back-office efficiency. That is a two-pronged approach from our perspective. It's staying on top of the developments—and R3 is a great resource for that because the consortium includes many banks and insurance companies—and then doing this private project work with them to create efficiency in the back-office processes.
How will DLT affect brokers going forward?
In the near term, I'll come back to these efficiency gains. There is a significant amount of pressure on brokers to improve efficiency in their back office that creates significant savings with a direct impact on the bottom line. It creates a very efficient and trusted process where you don't have any of this reconciliation or any errors. From a client perspective, that's a great thing. If a client is working with a broker that's using this technology, that's in the best interest of the client. Now, the process is safe; it's secure; it's trusted and it happens quick. Clients become part of that distributed ledger. They have visibility and can see what is going on rather than having to wait to hear from a broker.
Is there a wider impact?
Everybody at TigerRisk is excited about this technology and its impact. Technology is an enabler for innovation. If we can take away mundane tasks from humans, they can focus on innovating new products and new ideas. Technology like this can replace that very easily, and that's one of the key reasons for us to be involved.

In the rarified early music circles of Europe, Savall is a major star, a scholar of 15th, 16th, and 17th-century music and a virtuoso performer on the viol, an early string instrument. Played much like the modern cello — though held between the knees, as it lacks an endpin — the viol comes in a variety of sizes, ranging from treble to contrabass (also known as a violone). The ensemble brought six different types, which made for a beautiful blend of harmonies throughout the evening.
The program traced the development of European instrumental music from its emergence in the 15th century to the transitional period of the late Renaissance and early Baroque in the late16th century. The arc also covered a wide geographical swath, from the Court of Burgundy in France through Venice, Naples, and Paris to the court of King Henry VIII in England.
With percussionist David Mayoral setting a stately pace, the ensemble opened with a set of short instrumental works from Burgundy, followed by a quartet of Italian dances. By modern standards, these can seem quite dry, as the style of composition and playing at the time did not allow for much expression. While the ensemble was appropriately restrained, the craftsmanship in bringing the pieces to life was dazzling.
The pace picked up with a quartet of Spanish dances that closed the first half. The form allowed the players to open up a bit, lending some colors to the music while staying meticulously close to its original character. The layering was particularly impressive — opening with a solo lute or viol line, and adding the other instruments as the piece progressed. In a flourish of improv in the final piece, Savall had a chance to show his fluid style and stellar technique, even getting a fine vibrato out of his tiny treble viol.
An elegant set of compositions from 16th-century Lyon opened the second half and gave the ensemble an opportunity to develop surprisingly rich harmonies, all the more striking in the context of crisp playing. The tones the group achieved in the next set of 16th-century British works were sublime, the kind of sound heard only from expert musicians playing period instruments. The closing set of consorts once again gave Savall a chance to improvise, reeling off some complex runs that hardly seem possible on an antique instrument.
For aficionados, there was a very good presentation by Savall after intermission, introducing the various instruments onstage and explaining their range and functions. The program book was also quite detailed in its explanation of the history and structure of the music, a reflection of the decades of scholarship and work that Savall has devoted to resurrecting a once-lost art form. He has been an important part of a movement that has turned it into a resurgent wave of players and performances, not just in Europe, but throughout the U.S.
And for casual visitors, the concert offered a sophisticated and satisfying evening of music that transported the audience to another place — not just historically, but emotionally, offering a moment of tranquility and refinement amid the tumult of the modern world. That such a program attracted a wide age range of listeners speaks to its timeless appeal, and to the great programming underway these days at the art museum.

I went to the dollar store and bought an address book, a notepad, a package of 24 pencils, and a small calender..total was less than $4. Then I used some leftover tissue paper and a piece of embossed brown packing paper from a set of dishes, some black middy braid, and glue to cover it all up to match. It came out cute, but let me tell you right now, I'll probably never make another matching set! The pencil holder is a cardboard container some cocoa came in. When the glue was put on the packing paper, it made it look like leather. To make the pencils, cut out a piece of scrap paper 1" wide and then however long your pencil is. I did make a lot more pencils for myself, covering those nice good quality pencils you get at the lumber stores or auto parts places. Learn how to make the paper covered pencils at Design Sponge.
I've made a small collection of paper beads...I'd better start doing something with them! The last piece of jewelry I made was a huge ooopsie. My own fault really....I kept trimming off the frayed end...then wound up with just an inch or two too short...bleh! I really hate to unravel it, maybe I can figure out how to salvage it. It's made from brown and gold handmade paper, rolled on toothpicks. To use as spacers, I took some wooden beads that were crocheted onto a scarf I didn't wear anymore; and stirred some of the beads 2 sizes in a tiny puddle of gold paint. Learn to make flowers at How Stuff Works-Flower Power Beads.
So far I've used an old atlas page, several small pieces of handmade paper, and a lightweight piece of scrap booking paper, and some very pretty Washi paper. I'm trying to decide what beads I already have to use with these. The photos show some ideas I had.
I'd like to string these atlas page beads on leather and use these green glass beads with them.
Maybe these larger pink beads with the rose print scrap book paper?
I found some lime green square beads...it might look good.....
This is Washi paper, and I used one sheet already. The beads on the wires are just ones I'm getting ready...I used clear nail polish on them :D
This is the one sheet I'm using, and maybe these natural stones?
I've been making origami Lucky Stars when I have a strip of paper leftover. They've been thrown in a jar with the fortunes I get out of my fortune cookies! Learn how to make these here at Folding Trees.
I hope no one minds me linking to them, I'm so tired I don't think I can stay awake anymore tonight :D

And so I decided to instead write about cows.
That is correct, cows.
The CowParade is a phenomenal public art success by most measures. If you have not yet experienced the parade of cows in a major metropolis, it is a public art moo-vement (forgive me) intended to make art accessible for the masses. Cows are safe. Have you met a person who did not like cows? We all love 'em, and most of us happily eat them. (Pause and consider what that says about human nature.)
And then someone got the bright idea to use cows as a blank canvas. Artists in each city transform the same basic cow model into fantastic flights of imagination (or sadly, mere advertisements for the companies who sponsor them). Peter Hanig, the even coordinator explains:
Art is about breaking down barriers. It gets people to feel, to think, to react. So when you come across life-sized cow sculptures that have been covered in mirrors or gumdrops, cows that have been painted with elaborate themes or transformed into something else entirely, you can't help but stop and think about what it means. All your preconceived ideas go out the window. Suddenly people see that art can be fun and that art can be interesting to everyone, not just people who frequent museums.
Art can be fun. Indeed. I am not sure what artists have to say about that, but I can imagine that some agree and some are not amoosed (sorry, I can't help it, really.)
Peruse the CowParade website. It is a hoot. People love these cows. And the cows raise a huge amount of money for charity. It looks like a win-win game: artists get public exposure, charities get cash, and the art is temporary (so no one has to actually LIVE with it for longer than a summer).
The cows do reflect a city's culture.
Handicap Cow: his two back legs were amputated and replaced by old-fashioned wheelchair wheels. Not exactly whimsical. Especially when a beggar with a similar impediment worked the subway stairs within sight.
And my personal favorite: The Ice-Cream Cow. The cow is located just near the traditional café for distinguished ladies and gents, the Gerbaund. (Update: I recently learned that this is its new location. It was moved here after much controversy. Read this article from Budapest's English weekly newspaper, Budapest Sun.) It is blue cow ice cream melting into the hot summer pavement. If you imagined a cow as ice-cream, where would you have to insert the wooden stick? Exactly. On the stick it says: Don't Lick.
I love
Another Update: I found the official Hungarian site for the CowParade. Check it out and dust off your Hungarian language skills! http://www.cowparade.hu/index2.html

Photoshop Of Horrors: Katy Perry Has The Whole Internet In Her Hands
When it comes to Photoshop disasters, Katy Perry is a frequent offender. She's been slimmed, plumped, and smoothed to creepy porelessness so many times we've lost count. But when we first encountered this Katy Perry Photoshop disaster over on PSDisasters, we were shocked.
"But she looks pretty much normal!" we said. "Sure she's all smooth and shiny, but she might just be wearing a dump truck full of foundation, as usual."
Then our eyes panned a little bit south, and we noticed Katy Perry's shame: She has two left hands.
But the rest of the picture looks so relatively un-retouched that we started to wonder: Could this be Katy Perry in her natural state? Maybe she really does have two left hands! Considering the way most pictures are altered, it seems entirely conceivable that someone would have Photoshopped all the other pictures we've seen of Katy Perry to make it look like she had a right hand and a left hand all along. The original picture appeared on The Hollywood Reporter, and that's a news site, right?
As is often the case when a Photshop disaster strikes, we turned to recent red carpet photos to see what Katy Perry actually looks like.
Yep, we're pretty sure that's a left hand and a right hand she's got there. On the red carpet at the premiere for Britney Spears' new Las Vegas show, Katy Perry clearly had a right hand and a left hand. We believe that picture is not Photoshopped, because who would bother Photoshopping her hands and not getting rid of that ridiculous outfit.

• Interview With a Convicted Terrorist: Reporter Marc Perelman is the first journalist that would-be suicide bomber Imane Laghriss has spoken to since getting out of prison (see story). She and her twin sister were 14 years old when they were arrested, and later convicted for plotting to blow up the Moroccan parliament.
How did Marc persuade her to talk to him?
"I had the names of the social workers who are working with the sisters since their release from prison. I contacted them and they acted as my go-between. I explained that I wanted to tell their story, in their own voices," he says. Ms. Laghriss agreed to speak to him, but her sister did not.
Marc, who worked in Paris for two years for Jeune Afrique, a French weekly covering African affairs, spoke French. But she did not. She spoke Arabic. So, with the help of a local journalist, he conducted a two-hour interview . "We picked her up from her work in a gritty neighborhood in Casablanca. She directed us to a trendy coffee shop in a better part of the city. The setting was a little surreal. She was dressed in traditional head scarf, surrounded by Westernized, well-off kids. I was surprised at how at ease she was and by her sense of humor.
"She looked me in the eye, which is not so common among 18-year-old Muslim women in Morocco. She was self assured, almost cocky," says Marc.
But, he adds, there were moments when she seemed emotionally fragile. "I asked her how it was to work and live in a place where everyone knows she tried to blow herself up. She said sometimes it weighs on her. She cries sometimes because she feels her life is defined by what she tried to do, rather than what she's become. She talked about having a family. But she also talked about going to Iraq and blowing herself up in front of a Humvee."

Hofsˇs is one of the oldest trading centers in Iceland. In the old village surrounding the harbour many of the houses have been renovated recently, giving the town a uniquely "period" look. Across the river from the harbour is the tar-coated, log-built Warehouse (Pakkh˙si), raised here in 1777 at the time of the trading monopoly.
One of Iceland's oldest buildings, it is in the charge of the National Museum which had it renovated in the 1990's. It is now on view in its near-original state. The renovated old Co-op now functions as the original home of the Icelandic Emigration Center (Vesturfarasetri), housing the Glaumbaer Folk Muesum's exhibit "New Land, New Life", which tells the story of the Icelandic people who emigrated to North America. From June 2002 it will also house a new exhibit on the life and works of the Markerville poet Stephan Stephanson.
In FrŠndgarur, the Center's new building by the harbour, there is a genealogy service and an exhibit on the Icelandic Mormons' journey to Utah. In June 2002 an exhibit on the North Dakota Icelanders opens in another new building. Both these new buildings are in the style of the Old Warehouse, giving the old village back the feel of the trading center of by-gone days. The cove StaalbjargavÝk just below Hofsˇs is lined with tall basaltic columns. Similar rock formations can be seen all along the shore and especially at near-by ١rarh÷fi head-land, named for the 10th century settler whose farmland is still in use today. The population of Hofsˇs is around 200.

A German Shepherd bitch is making an impressive recovery from serious burns, after treatment with manuka honey impregnated dressings. 'Lady' sustained her injuries after being trapped in a blazing house in Cornwall, as reported by the BBC. She has since been under the care of Amanda Manley at the Cornwall Animal Hospital, who has been using Activon Tulle Manuka honey impregnated dressings to treat the wounds. Amanda said: "I'd like to say it was all down to the manuka honey, although it's difficult to make a scientific judgement without a control in place. Nevertheless I am...

It would seem that old school compilations are a dime a dozen -- especially on the PSP. Sony's portable has packs of classic games from Taito, SEGA, Activision, Capcom, Midway and Namco.
Now, Atari's ready to join the mix. This December, Atari Classics Evolved is bringing two versions of 11 arcade classics -- Pong, Asteroids, Centipede, Super Breakout, Missile Command, Lunar Lander, Asteroids Deluxe, Tempest, Battlezone, Milliede and Warlords -- to the PSP.
What's that?! Two versions?! Yeah. It's where that whole "evolved" thing comes in. Each of the titles comes as its classic self -- the game select screen is actually a series of arcade cabinets you cycle through to pick your poison -- as well as a version that has been overhauled in the visual and sound departments.
Let's look at Asteroids. For years, it's been a little white triangle with big white asteroids floating around you through space as you shoot little white bullets and try to survive, but now, everything has changed. In Asteroids Evolved, you're a gray and yellow ship with big orangish-yellow asteroids floating around you through space as you shoot little white bullets and try to survive.
All sarcasm aside, just about every "evolved" version of the arcade games is just spiffy colors, backgrounds and tunes added to the original titles. Is that a bad thing? Of course not; these games have always been great, and tossing in some new visuals and sound effects -- the Pong Evolved ping pong paddles and spot-on ball sounds spring to mind -- only amplify the fun.
Still, you're probably wondering what's going to make you want to buy this game and play through a bunch of titles you've already owned. Atari's answer: achievements.
Okay, so they're not stealing the exact Xbox formula, but each game has four "Awards" that you should be striving to earn in the evolved games. There's one for clearing five Tempest waves in 90 seconds, one for destroying every mushroom on the Centipede screen, one for destroying four missiles with a single shot in Missile Command, and the list goes on.
Aside from the sense of accomplishment for every completionist out there, unlocking all of the 44 awards gives you access to the Atari 2600 at the game select screen. What tiles will be available for you to play and plunder on the virtual console? Uh &#Array; a lot. If you unlock the system, the 2600 will give you access to more than 60 games such as Night Driver, Canyon Bomber and Crystal Castles.
Niiiiiiiiiiice. You can push your arcade skills to the max when Atari Classics Evolved hits next week, but be sure to check back here for the full review.

Gary Lineker and BBC team to present World Cup coverage from Rio
The BBC have announced their studio team, including main presenter Gary Lineker, will be based in Rio at next year's World Cup finals.
The corporation has reached agreement with Fifa to use one of their special international studios in the iconic Brazilian city.
The trend of the BBC being on location at football's biggest event began at France 98, with Des Lynam and his team memorably presenting the coverage from Paris.
For the majority of the 2002 tournament in Japan and Korea, the BBC presented from London, with Lineker and his panelists flying out for the quarter-final between Brazil and England, and staying for the rest of the tournament.
In 2006, the BBC were based in Berlin, with a view of the Brandenburg Gate. And in 2010, Cape Town and its alluring Table Mountain provided the backdrop for the BBC's coverage of the tournament in South Africa. That move probably received the most criticism, with only eight games of the 64 played in the city.
This time, the decision is more understandable, with Rio sure to provide a visual feast for the viewer. And a host of games, including the final, will be played at the city's legendary Maracana.
The director of BBC Sport, Barbara Slater, said: 'We have learned over the years that audiences value being immersed in the atmosphere and surround-sound of a World Cup, which can only be delivered through teams on location.'

Are you a person who spends sleepless nights worrying about money and whether you'll have enough of it when you retire? Are you looking for someone who can answer questions about how to manage your money? Or do you need to start looking for advice from new sources? If any of these scenarios apply to you, here are five tips to help you find the financial advisor that is right for you.
1) Check for qualifications
Make sure you choose a financial advisor who has the Certified Financial Planning (CFP) designation, or equivalent licenses. These special designations ensure that a financial advisor is well-versed in fund management and that they understand the ethical codes that they should abide by.
2) Do extra research
Interview a potential advisor the way you would interview a babysitter for your child or a photographer for your wedding—in-depth. Additionally, you should look for referrals from family and friends. The Internet is another important resource—from Facebook to LinkedIn, you can learn a lot about a candidate online.
3) Ask how well they know their clients
Be wary of an advisor who pushes you into doing something you are not comfortable with, or who tries to sell you a product that "guarantees" you a high rate of return. If it sounds too good to be true, then it most likely is. A financial advisor who is aware of differences in the personalities and preferences of their clients will make use of the Know Your Client (KYC) rule, or a similar guideline. This helps them determine whether you are a conservative, moderate or aggressive investor. They are then able to give you investment advice which suits your personal tolerance for risk.
4) Use your Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
If your workplace does offer this valuable program, you can ask your EAP provider for financial advice. A good EAP provider will be able to help you with financial concerns in a range of topics including credit/debt management, bankruptcy, separation and divorce, and early retirement. This useful service is free of charge.
5) Refer to the Certified Financial Planning (CFP) website
Another great resource to consult is the CFP website. This site has a search feature which helps you locate practising CFP professionals in your area. Just follow this link: http://www.fpsc.ca/directory-cfp-professionals-good-standing
You may decide to delve into do-it-yourself investing rather than enlisting a financial advisor. In this case, a terrific book to get you started is The Wealthy Barber by David Chilton. The book provides some excellent financial planning advice in a storytelling format. You can read its review as well those of other useful financial books from here. Best of luck!

State school board nixes 9th, 10th grade math and English standardized testing
Ryan Quinn, Charleston Gazette-Mail
In a quick string of votes Thursday morning, the West Virginia Board of Education, newly dominated by appointees of Gov. Jim Justice, voted to eliminate math and English language arts standardized testing in ninth and 10th grades, effective this spring, and to move away from the current Smarter Balanced tests after this spring.
It's still unclear, however, what new tests the state school board will jump to. The federal government requires math and English standardized testing in grades three through eight and at least once in high school.

In World of Warcraft, Mage Tower is a special area that is mean to be a "solo challenge," or not mean to be played in a group, and many players have appreciated it. However, for anyone who is playing a Tank-type of character, he/she is likely not enjoy it at all. Many Battle.net players complain their frustration for not being able to complete challenge for one reason or another. Now let's talk about and see how we can do this below. Latest wow news are waiting for you at MmoGah.
Now World of Warcraft Patch 7.2 is living on US realms and there are multiple changes that are not documented in the patch notes. Maybe some senior players have found it, so let's talk about these changes and have more and more players know this.
World of Warcraft Path 7.2 launches many new contents and players can continue to gear up. Also you can get some fresh awesome alt gears for riding. Now, let's talk about something about gearing up ways in Patch 7.2.
In the previous article about prediction of patch 7.2, we expected that the new patch 7.2 will arrive in early April. Blizzard has revealed that World of Warcraft Legion's 7.2 patch will be released on March 28th. The patch, being called The Tomb of Sargeras, includes a variety of additions that apply to both casual and hardcore players. Patch 7.2 includes the Tomb of Sargeras raid, Cathedral of Eternal Night dungeon, questing in the Broken Shore, expansions of Class Hall Quests, and so on.
Guilds are ways for like-minded players to come together and help each other with quests, pvp, instances, and end game raiding. Being a good guild is one of the most rewarding and fun aspects of World of Warcraft. Running a good guild is like being the captain of a winning sports team - everyone loves you for it and you have a blast. However, running a guild successfully is also fairly difficult.
As of now, it has been declared by Blizzard that players' stockpiled gold from World of Warcraft to pick up items and characters can be used in other Battle.net games, which including Overwatch, Hearthstone, or Heroes of the Storm.
Depending on full experience and more than 10 years' working in Game Industry, Mmogah has become an industry giant of MMORG. By right of good reputation and service quality, more and more players choose Mmogah.com to buy wow gold. Why Mmogah is the priority choice of wow gold for most players? Follow me and maybe you can find the answer.
In world of Warcraft, every player knows that wow gold is very important. You can have nothing but a skill bar and another name with no mount. You need money to buy skills, items, armor, and so much more. No matter if you are a new or seasoned player in World of Warcraft, you need to buy wow gold to stay at the top of your game.
Wise see wisdom. In World of Warcraft, many players always hesitate which wow gold seller is a reliable and trustworthy site, and also can work for this Game Industry forever? Never cheat us but with good service attitude and patience. Maybe some players still want to know more information about the reputation, safe guarantee, safe delivery methods etc. OK, let's get to the point and see whether we can find such a good Gold Selling Site for us.
Gearing is much easier and faster if you have a guild and/or friends that are willing to help you out in World of Warcraft. This will save you a lot of trouble and time: forming groups is much faster (especially if you are playing DPS), people will not leave at the middle of the run, you will know how competent they are beforehand, you will get all relevant loot without having to ask for it every time. If your current guild is inactive or won't help you out, definitely consider joining a new one
In World of Warcraft, each rack will only show helm and shoulders, once you see that, you're done with that tier. There's nothing for filling them out other than having it, as far as I can tell. Certainly looks cool. Every class has these, Demon Hunters even have one lonely stand that will eventually host Night hold.
In the first place World of Warcraft is a pretty basic game. Generally to say, do damage to enemies is the key point. Choose a class fantasy that fits what you like in role play games. Then you will learn more about this in the years ahead.
There are 8 champions in total for each class, but only 5 can be active. As with the garrison followers in Warlords of Draenor, you must deactivate your excess champions if you wish to start a mission and you have over 5 active champions. If you wish to reactivate them, you can do pay 250 World of Warcraft gold to activate one per day. Every class has their own separate set of champions, since they are all related to lore.
The mage is a DPS caster that specializes in burst damage and area of effect spells in world of Warcraft. Mage utility spells also include conjuring food and drink and the ability to teleport to major cities and open portals for party members. In PvP, magi deal ranged damage while using snare effects and Polymorph to control enemy players. Their primary role in a group is damage dealing and crowd control through the use of Polymorph. At the end of game levels, mage damage is supplemented with sp
The main benefit of Newbie Healbot in World of Warcraft is that you get a new colored box for every player in your party or a raid with their health. Something like this. So yeah, a colored box for every player. Healbot allows you to set up different spells on different clicks - for example. If you left click the Healbot bar, you cast Healing Wave on that player. Middle click = Riptide. Right click - Chain Heal.
The Elemental Shaman in 7.1.5 is one which deals in extremes in World of Warcraft. That changes in patch 7.1.5, as the talent builds provide not only different strengths and weaknesses, they present very different play styles. Whereas in patch 7.1.0 the prevalent builds were fairly close, simply changing one talent to alter focus to either burst or sustain / multi-target power.

I was so worried when my brother in law called me on the phone the other night and asked me if my niece was here. I told him she was not here, he then informed me that my niece asked him if she could sleep overnight here the other night. It was already almost 10:00 p.m., and she was not here yet. I called her on the phone but her phone was off.
Good thing, my niece called me at 10:00 p.m., she was already in the other house and that she was sorry. She had to finish her project at her friend's house, she went here after she took her computer from the other house. She was already here for 2 days now.

Bringing it back on home
BERWYN, Penn. - In late December, Sonitrol Corp. purchased a Long Island, N.Y., Sonitrol Security dealership - the second such transaction the company has announced in one month.
The dealership, purchased from Asgard Industries, Inc., provides security services to Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island and borders existing Sonitrol branches in northern New Jersey, metro New York and Connecticut.
At the end of November, Sonitrol completed the purchase of a San Bernadino, Calif. dealership from Protection Service Industries. The deal increased the company's reach throughout southern California and allowed it to align with the company's other area dealerships.
On the Long Island buy, Nancy Scheuerman, director of marketing at Sonitrol, said the reason for the purchase was the same - an opportunity to increase its customer base in a region contiguous with other Sonitrol branches.

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 57:00 — 78.3MB)
this edition has been produced in montreal, canada by regular contributor france jobin, as part of her series my favorite things. for more information visit her website at http://www.i8u.com. france says:
Framework – i8u – my favorite things (Installment #4)
Bonjour, I am france jobin, better know as i8u. Welcome to "these are a few of my favorite things".
As mentioned in earlier installments, my interpretation of field recording based works, is very broad however, the thread I like to follow is to find artists who have mastered their unique identity through the music of sound.
This is the 2nd part of "my favorite things" devoted to nvo. The label is nvo, non visual objects, was founded in 2005 by Heribert Friedl and Raphael Moser. In 2007, nvo released : Extract, Portraits of Soundartists, a book and 2 cd's.
The next hour will be devoted to the 2nd cd's issued as well as excerpts from the book.
from the introduction:
"Since we started the label Nonvisualobjects two years ago, many collaborations with artists worldwide have arisen, a large, growing network has evolved and an extensive body of work has been formed that we would like to explore and try to sum up. The book developed from the idea of presenting an extract of artists involved in the current experimental electro-acoustic music scene, often following a rather reduced approach in their work. We would like to present artists that work in different areas in this field of electro-acoustic music, to cover a large spectrum even in this quite specific area.
With essays, interviews, photos, drawings and other materials presented in this book, we try to look at the motivation and intention behind the sound production from different perspectives, to possibly allow for a new/extended approach to this form of music. Many of the artists involved in this project do not exclusively work with sound, but also in other artistic disciplines. In this book we would like to present these other sides of their work to allow crossreferences/crosslinks to open up new aspects of the music.
The chapters consist of collage-like contributions. Images and text should not necessarily be regarded as complete units, but are open to various possibilites of interpretation.
It was not our intention to present a discourse in theories of art and music. It was also not our wish to present a curated work on a specific topic. Instead we wanted to show very personal portraits created by the artists themselves, which describe their way of working, the methodology of their sound production and which also portray the artist's physical and not only their intellectual environment – where one lives, things of everyday life, things of interest and inspiration.
In the fast moving times of the digital era, it was also our wish to, at least partly, hold on to an analogue medium. Should the inevitable decay of digitally stored media ever lead to the disappearance of much of contemporary art and culture, the possibility to refer to this book would still remain."

DETROIT - Pharmaceuticals, caffeine and items such as toothpaste additives have been found farther out in Lake Michigan than ever before, according to a new study that also raises concerns about their levels.
DETROIT � Pharmaceuticals, caffeine and items such as toothpaste additives have been found farther out in Lake Michigan than ever before, according to a new study that also raises concerns about their levels.
Until now, the presence of pharmaceuticals and personal-care products has gone largely unstudied within the Great Lakes, according to Rebecca Klaper, a co-author of the study released last month.
Klaper, an associate professor at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee�s School of Freshwater Sciences, said the expectation has been that the Great Lakes� huge volumes of water would dilute the substances to the point they could not be detected.
Pharmaceuticals found in Lake Michigan 2 miles offshore from two Milwaukee wastewater-treatment plants included a diabetes medication and a hormone used in birth-control pills.
The new findings are alarming researchers, even as they continue to learn more about what the presence of such chemicals means. The concern is that the products might affect fish and other aquatic life in ways that harm the ecosystem, Klaper said.
Klaper and her team looked for 54 pharmaceuticals, personal-care products and hormones in Lake Michigan water and sediment at varying distances from Milwaukee�s two main wastewater-treatment plants. The samples were collected on six dates over two years.
Thirty-two of the products were found in Lake Michigan�s water and 30 in the lake�s sediments.
The most-frequently found products � detected as far out as 2 miles from the wastewater plant � included:
� Metformin, a prescription diabetes medicine.
� Caffeine, from natural sources but also from coffee, tea, pop and energy drinks.
� Sulfamethoxazole, an antibiotic used to treat ailments such as urinary-tract and inner-ear infections.
� Triclosan, an antibacterial and antifungal agent found in many consumer products, including toothpaste and antibacterial soaps.
Of the detected drugs and care products, 14 were found to be in concentrations of medium or high ecological risk, according to the study.
While only Lake Michigan was studied, pharmaceuticals and personal-care products likely persist in other Great Lakes that take wastewater outflows, according to Klaper.

CNN recently traveled to heavily Democratic Logan County, West Virginia, looking for Hillary Clinton supporters, but ran into a little problem — they couldn't find very many.
In fact, out of 20 random people, reporter Gary Tuchman could only find one woman who said she would vote for Clinton in the upcoming presidential election. The rest said they weren't going to vote for Clinton's Democrat rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, either.
They said they were voting for billionaire businessman Donald Trump.
Advertisement - story continues below
This could be a damning telltale sign for Clinton, as there are six registered Democrats to every one registered Republican in the county.
Logan County is a coal mining town and, over the past few years, miners have lost jobs. Many workers declared earlier in the month that Clinton was not welcome in the town after she said she would put a lot of coal mining businesses out of work at a clean energy town hall not long ago.
TRENDING: Desperate Avenatti Slams Own Client Stormy After Losing to Trump
Voters felt betrayed — and it's hard not to blame them for casting their votes somewhere else.
What matters at the end of the day is work, so people can provide for their families. When someone threatens to take that work away, there will be obvious repercussions.

As Tuchman talked to voters during his visit, he found out that most of them believed Trump could help revive Logan County's economy. They also said that while Clinton tried to backtrack on what she said about the mining industry, they were still leery of giving her their vote. That's pretty smart, I'd say.
Watch coverage below:
It's no surprise voters are turning against Clinton. Maybe some of them are coming to realize that having her in the White House would simply be an extension of the previous seven-plus years we've had with President Barack Obama — or worse.

It's such an exciting time to be at Hulu. In just the past few months, we've had the pleasure of announcing new, premium Hulu Originals, including CASUAL, a comedy series from Jason Reitman and 11/22/63, an original event series from J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot Productions, based on Stephen King's best-selling book.
Today, we are adding yet another exciting title to that list with the announcement of our straight-to-series order for Difficult People – a half hour comedy series produced by Amy Poehler and starring Julie Klausner (Billy on the Street) and Emmy®-nominated Billy on the Street host Billy Eichner.
Difficult People comes to Hulu in our first collaboration with Universal Cable Productions. This hilarious series follows Billy Eichner and Julie Klausner as best friends and struggling comedians in New York City who can't figure out why they aren't likeable. Klausner wrote the pilot and will also serve as an executive producer for the series alongside Amy Poehler (Parks and Recreation) and Dave Becky (Louie).
When I first joined Hulu, I was excited to break new ground and continue to expand the offering of premium content that Hulu was built upon. Difficult People is one of those smart, distinctive comedy series that perfectly fits into our diverse slate of high-quality Hulu Originals.
Difficult People will start production early next year and we cannot wait to work with Universal Cable Productions to bring this series to life. With the comedic minds of Amy Poehler, Julie Klausner, Billy Eichner and Dave Becky behind it, we are confident that our viewers will love this show just as much as we do.

The Clathrus archeri fungus doesn't exactly sound like something to get yourself worked up about — and, in fairness, it's probably not. However, if you see what happens to its eggs when they hatch in your backyard, you may think otherwise.
Clathrus archeri — more colloquially known as "devil's fingers" or "octopus stinkhorn" — is a type of fungus indigenous to Australia. However, it's been introduced to many parts of the world, including the United States, and many have been freaked out by its alien appearance.
This is what the early-stage devil's fingers fungus looks like. So far, so normal. In fact, it looks like the old stink-mushrooms we used to stomp on in our backyards when I was a kid (until, of course, our lawn-conscious fathers came out of the house yelling and told us that's how we spread the spores all over the lawn). So far, so normal.
Advertisement - story continues below
This… looks considerably less normal. This is either a scene from an unreleased Ridley Scott movie about an alien egg, or what happens when you leave a supermarket-made California roll in your back seat for two or three months.
Either way, there's nothing good that can come out of this.
TRENDING: School Principal Gets Devastating News After Attacking Pro-Trump Teen
And it doesn't get any better when the thing hatches, either.
And now it's in full attack mode.
Advertisement - story continues below
Thankfully, the devil's fingers fungus is about as dangerous as, well, your average Bernie Sanders supporter. The most dangerous thing it can possibly do is gross you out, kind of like Lena Dunham. And it's shared all over the Internet, kind of like Miley Cyrus.
No wonder it's called the "devil's fingers." It's pretty much the most liberal organism on earth.

Please like and share if you would prefer devil's fingers to stay out of your backyard.
