text: Companies Clash Over Technology December 8, 2012 01:03 PM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Rhonda Brooks Editor, Farm Journal MagazineEditorial Director, Farm Journal Media Email Dow AgroSciences LLC, a subsidiary of the Dow Chemical Company, has prevailed in its motion for summary judgment in a key patent infringement lawsuit involving its Enlist weed control system. In a ruling by the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, two affiliates of Dow Agro-Sciences received a $5.3 million award against Bayer Bioscience. The lawsuit pertained to the Bayer Bacillus thuringiensis biotechnology patents. The patents were found in multiple legal proceedings to be unenforceable due to what the court described as Bayer's "inequitable conduct." The lawsuit was originally filed in 1995 by Plant Genetic Systems, a subsidiary of Bayer Bioscience. Dow AgroSciences says the multimillion-dollar award will be used to cover attorneys' fees and costs incurred by its affiliates. Bayer says it strongly disagrees with the decision by the U.S. District Court and has filed an appeal. Carryover Concerns Herbicide carryover is something you'll want to give thought to as you plan for the 2013 crop season, according to Iowa State University weed science Extension specialists Mike Owen and Bob Hartzler. They say drought conditions reduce the ability of corn and soybean herbicides to control weeds. In addition, due to low moisture levels, many weed control products were unable to adequately degrade in the soil. The net effect: there's potential for crop damage from herbicide carryover in your fields next spring. Fortunately, only a few of the herbicide active ingredients have characteristics that might lead to carryover problems in 2013, report Owen and Hartzler. The products listed as "high risk" have the potential to damage rotational crops under normal conditions. "Most farmers have learned what rates can be used on their soils safely, but this year's drought will result in a high risk even with reduced rates," say the Extension specialists. "Both chlorimuron and atrazine are more persistent in high-pH soils. Pre-emergence applications of chlorimuron will have a higher risk of problems because these rates are much higher than when chlorimuron is applied postemergence. The best option might be to alter rotation plans to avoid planting a susceptible crop." Products listed as "moderate to slight risk" have been known to occasionally cause problems or have half-lives that suggest they might cause problems under abnormal onditions. Risks with these products will vary depending on specific field conditions. "Keep in mind that if rainfall returns to normal, this rain will have much less effect on herbicide degradation than had it occurred near the time of herbicide application," the specialists add. "Also, while tillage should dilute herbicide residues in the soil, past experience has shown that this practice does not consistently reduce crop injury from herbicide residues. Using practices that minimize additional stresses to the seedling (planting date, seedbed conditions, etc.) can reduce problems associated with low concentrations of herbicides."

UPDATE (11:45 a.m.): According to Geoff Mosher of CSNPhilly.com, a team source confirmed to him that Johnson does not have a workout scheduled with the Eagles.
UPDATE (10:20 a.m.): Ruben Frank of CSNPhilly is reporting that while Johnson may be headed to Philly, he is not here to work out for the Eagles.
Last night at 12:37 a.m., the troubled wide receiver, who was released from the Dolphins last month after a domestic battery incident with then-wife Evelyn Lozada, tweeted the following:
Sure, that doesn't tell us much, and Johnson didn't expand on why he was coming to Philly, but with Jeremy Maclin suffering his second injury in as many games and Riley Cooper still out, it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that he is going to work out for the Eagles. But we know what happens when one assumes.
Johnson, 33, caught just 15 passes for 276 yards and a touchdown in New England last season. However, in his last two seasons with the Bengals (2009, 2010), Johnson caught 139 passes for 1,878 yards and 13 touchdowns.
We can't rule out that a late-night Call of Duty marathon led Johnson to develop a craving for cheesesteaks, but with all the injuries to Eagles receivers, his trip to Philadelphia could be more for business than pleasure.

Jon Bon Jovi Burglar Sentenced to Prison Time
The man who stole $100K worth of jewelry from Jon Bon Jovi is going to prison. On Friday a judge sentenced Nicholas Tracy to five years for a string of burglaries in Monmouth County, N.J. Bon Jovi was one of the victims.
In total, over $300K in jewelry and personal items were taken by the 22-year-old. According to NJ.com, Tracy was eventually apprehended on April 13, 2011 when Middletown police caught him in the act of burglarizing another home. Investigators then further investigated and found some of the stolen property.
Tracy pleaded guilty to three counts of second-degree theft and one count of third-degree burglary. In addition to the rock star's house, he targeted other large mansions in the area. Prior to his arrest residents described him as charming but quirky. One man told Fox News that he'd photographed Tracy driving around with a large bust of Napoleon Bonaparte in the passenger seat. The two chatted, and weeks later Tracy was arrested.
The Bon Jovi singer has been on the road lately, campaigning in support of President Barack Obama. Earlier this month he appeared at a fundraiser in Los Angeles that included George Clooney and Stevie Wonder.

Search in DrScheme
posted by Robby Findler
I've just overhauled search in DrScheme. Instead of popping up a dialog box and asking you for a search string, you get a new editor along the bottom of the DrScheme window where you can type a search string and DrScheme responds by circling (in purple) all of the occurrences of the search string in the file, both in the main window and in the contour window.
From there, you can use the new menu shortcuts to navigate forwards and backwards through the hits, optionally replacing occurrences of the search string with the replace strings (see the Edit menu).
With the default settings, typing a search string does not move around in the main window. Specifically (unlike Emacs, Safari, or Firefox), you don't move immediately to the first occurrence of the search string. You have to hit return or one of the search keys (in the Edit menu) for that to happen. But you can enable this in the General pane of the Editing tab in the preferences dialog. Click on "Search using anchors". Now, when you search for a string, DrScheme will whizz you right to it and when you edit the search string, DrScheme will shift the insertion point based on the search string. In order for you to keep track of where edits will go, you'll see a funny looking little red dongle in your text. That's where the insertion point was when you started your search, and that's where DrScheme starts all of these implicit searches from.
Try it out and let us know what you think! In particular, is the anchor-based search or the non-anchor-based search more intuitive for you?


text: This Steelers team will be lucky to finish 9-7. The defense looked horrible and the o-line just plan sucks. No running game to speak of and opposing defenses will concentrate on rushing Ben with only 4 or 5 down linemen. You all have witnessed how this team will fair against the upper echelon teams in this league. This is only the beginning and it will only get worse from here.

Levengood's Crop-Circle Plant Research
Investigative Files
Joe Nickell
Skeptical Briefs Volume 6.2, June 1996
In several technical papers, W. C. Levengood purports to show that "Plants from crop formations display anatomical alterations which cannot be accounted for by assuming the formations are hoaxes."[1] Unfortunately, there are serious objections to Levengood's approach. First of all, while he uses various control plants for his experiments, nowhere in the papers I reviewed [1,2,3,4] is there any mention of the work being conducted in double-blind manner so as to minimize the effects of experimenter bias. (As one "cereologist," the Earl of Haddington, said of another laboratory that claimed to detect different "energy levels" between crop-circle and non-crop-circle areas [a concept that appears to have begun with dowsers], "When they are not told which sample came from a Crop Circle and which from a heap of grain in my back yard they are either unable or unwilling to give a result."[5])
The question of bias is important since Levengood's attitudes and assumptions reveal him as a partisan crop-circle "believer" of the Terence Meaden, ion-plasma-vortex variety. Alas, Meaden-who wrote several articles and books advocating the vortex hypothesis-was increasingly forced to conclude that great numbers of crop circles, especially the elaborate pictograms, were produced by hoaxers, and he reportedly abandoned interest in the subject. [6] Levengood's colleague, John A. Burke, seems particularly defiant towards "alleged hoaxers" [7], as if there were not powerful evidence that most-probably all-of the crop patterns were man-made.[8]
There is, in fact, no satisfactory evidence that a single "genuine" (i.e., vortex-produced) crop-circle exists, so Levengood's reasoning is circular: Although there are no guaranteed genuine formations on which to conduct research, the research supposedly proves the genuineness of the formations. But if Levengood's work were really valid, he would be expected to find that some among the putatively "genuine" formations chosen for research were actually hoaxed ones-especially since even some of Meaden's most ardent defenders admit there are more hoaxed circles than "genuine" ones. [6,8] In fact, there is now evidence that a major formation that Levengood believes genuine and uses as a basis for theoretical discussion-the "Mandelbrot" formation-was the work of hoaxers. [6]
Although Levengood finds a correlation between "structural and cellular alterations" in plants and their location within crop-circle-type formations (as opposed to those of control plants outside such formations) [1], he should know the maxim that "Correlation is not causation." As the noted Temple University mathematician John Allen Paulos recently demonstrated-quite tongue in cheek-there is a direct correlation between children's math ability and shoe size! [9] Comments statistician Rand Wilcox of the University of Southern California: "Correlation doesn't tell you anything about causation. But it's a mistake that even researchers make." [9]
That Levengood's work does not go beyond mere correlation in many instances is evident from his frequent concessions: For example, "Taken as an isolated criterion," he says, "node size data cannot be relied upon as a definite verification of a 'genuine' crop formation." [1] Again he admits, "From these observed variations, it is quite evident that [cell wall] pit size alone cannot be used as a validation tool." [1]
Even his alleged correlations are suspect. Citing variations in pit expansion and node size in plants from within the formations, he states: "These energy distributions are by no means uniform."[10] Again, he cites formations where there were increases in plant pit size well outside the formations, saying that "some 20 feet out is the farthest I've seen this energy carryover and so even [though] those crops were standing upright and looked perfectly normal they had been hit." He attributes this to "several different kinds of energy" being involved. [10]
He thus gives the impression that, like Meaden, he is constantly rationalizing new data and attempting to fit it in to preconceived vortex notions. Apparently no one has yet independently replicated Levengood's work. One scientist from Colgate did attempt to verify his seed germination claims using some of his seeds but without success.[10] Apparently few mainstream scientists take Levengood's work seriously other than one or two friends who wish "to remain anonymous because of the ridicule. [10]
Until his work is independently replicated by qualified scientists doing "double-blind" studies and otherwise following stringent scientific protocols, there seems no need to take seriously the many dubious claims that Levengood makes, including his similar ones involving plants at alleged "cattle mutilation" sites.[10]

Though no one seems to know exactly when, the Lloyd Center J.J. Newberry, Portland's last honest-to-goodness five-and-dime, will close its doors soon. Mr. Biehl, a veteran store employee who has worked for both Newberry and the F.W. Woolworth Co. for more than 20 years, says details of the store's closure are a mystery--even to him.
"They're not too free with the information," said Mr. Biehl, "and they just shipped in a bunch of stuff from 10 other stores."
The SALE signs on the windows have gone from 20 to 50 percent off, and we can guess what's next: The 70-percent-off free-for-all.
Newberry's demise has been long and lingering. Its parent company, McCrory Corp., closed 300 Newberry stores in 1997. One by one, the remaining outposts have shuttered their doors on hometown main streets across the land, like Portland's beloved downtown Newberry (1927-1996). Only a combination of mall proximity and inertia could've kept the Lloyd Center shop going this long (it opened in 1960).
So what does one find at Newberry? Ladies' foundations, cocoa butter, keychains, hangers, plastic pill sorters, weed killer, hairbrushes, ankle socks--the essential sundries of modern life on a limited budget. Plus, things you couldn't possibly need to put on your shopping list--a can-opener cozy, garlic shampoo, CD-shaped potpourri sachets. All in all, the inside of a five-and-dime is a puzzling and (sort of) sweet collage of American desire. It has always been the home of the impulse buy, the modest trinket, the afternoon errand for a spool of thread and a box of popcorn. And when Newberry goes, so will small-scale shopping.
But enough hearts and roses, let's dig into Newberry's inky heart. Should we mourn the loss of the old-time discount store? It may have been starved into extinction by the likes of Wal-Mart and Target, but five and dimes were the Wal-Marts of their day. They paved the way for the convenience-besotted, junk-enamored culture we now know so well. Sure, the inventory of your average Newberry rarely topped 1,000 items (compared to Wal-Mart's 50,000-plus), but they did tend to knit themselves into the fabric of downtown (while Wal-Marts prefer to set up shop on the outskirts).
Still, most of what Newberry sold was, well...crap. Soap and talcum gift sets, toys and pulp paperbacks, calico remnants, flimsy greeting cards. Asking "Did you get that at Newberry's?" was a derisive appraisal, somewhere along the lines of Kmart's "Blue Light Special." So wherefore the affection for the five-and-dime? Maybe America waxes nostalgic about Woolworth and Newberry because those were the first places a kid could walk into, allowance in hand, and walk out with a toy train or a training bra on her own. Reminisce about your first assertion of independent buying power. Didn't it happen at a Payless or a Newberry?
Mr. Biehl says the Newberry closedown sale has gone largely unpublicized because the store can't afford ad rates in local publications. And on the weekday afternoon I visited, customers were sparse, mostly lone lurkers sifting passionlessly through hilariously misprinted T-shirts ($2) and bottles of Dreams by Tabu ($8.95). There were some finds: bright-hued umbrellas for $2.50, knit gloves for $1.50, and sweaters with Dr. Seuss flaws (too-long sleeves, or one longer than the other).
Ultimately, Newberry is not junk of the lowest order. Junk of the lowest order is yet to come. According to Mr. Biehl, McCrory Corporation plans to reopen it as a Dollar Zone Store. "Same kind of thing, then?" I asked. "No," Biehl corrected. "We've got things in here that go for more than a dollar." The thought of Newberry's inventory being replaced by even chintzier, more disposable merchandise depressed me so much that I purchased steak-shaped vinyl dog toys (50 cents) and day-glo fishing tackle ($1.69), just to grab onto the last evidence of a higher standard. I wish I could have done more, but not even nostalgia makes some of this stuff buyable. As one elderly customer remarked to the checker (with regret in her voice?), "Well, you have a lot of interesting things in here, but I don't know whether I would use any of them."
The employee I quote, "Mr. Biehl," wanted to be known as Mr. Biehl. He introduced himself as Mr. Biehl. His name tag said Mr. Biehl.

One of my favorite recruits from this past class. Definitely needs a redshirt, but I think he will surprise alot of us with a very good career.
2012 Recruiting: Jeremy Clark
Hello. This is an annual series profiling Michigan's incoming recruiting class. I do it so that I have a Kiper-like instant recall of biographical facts on all these guys and because since a information-strewn football season has passed between most of these guys' commitments and now. You read 'em because it's the summer.
A note on "YMRMFSPA": this stands for "you may remember me from such players as." It's not supposed to be a projection of how good a player will be, but rather who he'll remind you of in the event he works out. The players I use as comparisons all worked out. I can't compare someone to Avery Horn because I don't know what Avery Horn played like.
Previously: First of the year
|Madisonville, KY - 6'4" 205
|Other Suitors
|MAC schools, Illinois, NC State, Cincinatti
|Ernest Shazor, but sane!
And slower.
|Previously On MGoBlog
|Tom interviews Clark. Tim commit post.
|Name is hard to Google.
Senior(?) film:
A previous highlight reel has been removed from the tubes.
Jeremy Clark lived the life of an itinerant hobo last summer looking for an opportunity to play Big Time college football (or any college football at all), camping at Cincinnati, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisville, Western Kentucky, Austin Peay(!), and probably others early in the summer. He almost succeeded when his camp tour took him to Ohio State in June. There he was one of three defensive backs being heavily evaluated for an offer. Najee Murray was the immediate winner in that derby; OSU told the other two guys they were "interested." He got his first smattering of offers in the aftermath.
The next weekend Clark hit up Michigan's camp and got his wish: a grayshirt offer that he took immediately, short-circuiting further developments with OSU and anyone else. By the time he grabbed the grayshirt he was turning down you-can-play-now offers from Illinois, Cincinnati and NC State: Clark wants big time.
He'll get it, and he'll get it this fall after Michigan upgraded him to the full-fledged offer in mid-October. This was a talent thing. Clark had been told that if Jarrod Wilson, Michigan's main safety target in the class, picked someone other than Michigan that he'd get the full offer, but by the time Clark was moved to 2012 Wilson had been committed to Michigan for a couple months. This was also before Michigan's late run of disappointment in the 2012 class. It was a move spurred by his play as a senior…
"They sent their coach down to watch practice last week and they were so impressed with him and our team," Weaver said. "They wanted to get him on campus right away."
Clark … and the rest of the Maroon secondary shut down Lone Oak QB Cole Ousley last week. … "I thought he was a very good football player," Lone Oak head coach Orville Haskins said. "Their skill kids are really good."
…and designed to ward off any suitors offering what Michigan was unwilling to. So he'll be on campus in the fall.
The main questions about Clark are these:
Is he really a 6'4" safety?
Can he run?
How legit was this interest from Ohio State and "other (SEC) suitors"?
Question 1: probably. That picture above is one tall, narrow dude, and there's no jitter in any of the recruiting services' listings save for a 6'2" handed out by ESPN. Everyone else says 6'4". Maybe he's really 6'3". He's still really tall for a defensive back. As far as the safety bit of that question, yeah, very probably. Part of his extreme sleeper status was the usual crazy growth spurt:
"He has the potential to be the best player I've coached ," Weaver said. "He grew four inches from the summer of his sophomore year to his junior year. He grew four inches and runs a 4.4 40 (yard dash).
"He can fly and he likes to hit."
So he's used to the idea of being a 6'0" safety. The only thing that would drag him away would be the height making it problematic to stay there.
That doesn't seem like it's going to be the case. When he committed Scout replicated this Sam Webb evaluation from camp:
This 6-4, 175-lb. safety was one of the surprises of the day. He flashed good speed and EXCELLENT ball skills. He is a bit of a sleeper on the national scene because he has grown four inches since last fall. Just as impressive was the fact that he soaked up the coaching like a sponge and just seemed to really be relishing the overall experience. After his showing today, the Wolverines are definitely wide awake to his talents. Cincinnati just offered him and don't be surprised if a number of others, including Michigan, turn up the heat.
ESPN also says free safety all the way($) in an evaluation that's more positive than his ranking:
Clark is a tall and rangy free safety prospect with a lot of production. Very lean without a lot of bulk, strength and power to his frame right now but we like his upside and room for development as an overall player. Not yet a real explosive defender at this point but mobility and range are good. Covers a lot of ground and is active around the ball. Shows good instincts and awareness skills. Displays very good range and the ability to get over the top of routes in deep coverage. Utilizes his length to his advantage. Tracks the ball well and will go up and high-point utilizing his great height and extension. Does a good job reading the quarterback and underneath route development from a centerfield position. … Lunges as a tackler and lets up some leaky yardage. Tends to drag and question ability to provide stout run support in the box early on in college. Overall, Clark has the height, range and instincts coveted in a safety prospect. Has some weaker areas as well but feel most will be improved as he continues to work on his physical development and becomes comfortable in his taller frame. Has a high ceiling.
Weaknesses are his man-to-man technique, ability to make tight turns, and tackling/run support issues but ESPN feels "most will be improved as he continues to work on his physical development and becomes comfortable in his taller frame. Their evaluation of his ceiling: "high."
Trieu's assessment is less down on the tackling but similar otherwise:
Closing Speed
Tackling Ability
Hip Flexibility
Clark is a tall defensive back that has to add some weight to his frame, but loves to come up and hit. Is willing to throw his body around, takes good angles to the football and delivers strong blows to ball carriers. Good straight line speed, but can be a little upright and straight legged in his back pedal. Good range and overall ball skills. - Allen Trieu
His coach echoes the praise($) for his smarts, saying "He has a great speed, he's very physical. He's a really smart kid. And he has a knack for getting to the football." If he doesn't work out at safety I'd guess the ball skills and the size mean a move to WR is more likely than linebacker. Also Michigan has all of the linebackers.
As far as question 2, Clark evidently ran a 4.47 40 at WKU when he hit up their camp the day after OSU's—itinerant hobo, I'm telling you—and a 4.48($) at the Cincinnati camp. If true and not a hilariously under-clocked hand-timing, yes, he can run. If? If. Elsewhere he's listed at 4.7, considerably less enthralling. I'd say he can run enough. Every scouting report has at least mild praise for his straight-line speed. There was even a random rumble($) from Rivals that Clark could play corner after Clark reported that Curt Mallory told him he could play "anywhere in the secondary($)," which would be… interesting.
I probably shouldn't have even brought up #3, as it's inherently unknowable. Erratic rumors that Florida(!), of all teams, was going to come in with an offer if Michigan didn't budge off the grayshirt don't seem credible, since they still could have offered after it. However, Clark's coach did name names once, in a Rivals article($) from Andy Reid:
"That's how he's taking it, and he's fully on board for Michigan. I've had some other schools call me to try and hop in on him now, that offered him to come in as a regular 2012 recruit. But I've talked to his parents, and we're firm. Once he committed, he's done."
Since Clark committed, he's received offers from Cincinnati and N.C. State to come in as a regular 2012 recruit. Weaver has also fielded calls from Florida and South Carolina expressing interest, but Clark has not reciprocated said interest.
You can spin that into an offer was totally coming if Clark showed reciprocal interest if you like. Clark's dad also made an oblique reference($) to "other schools" calling him in the fall by way of explaining Clark's loyalty. Given Clark's profile it's not hard to see teams being wary until seeing senior-year performance. The local paper reports that Clark only played in five games as a junior, and there was the whole growth spurt thing.
If you're making a case that the recruiting services have been excessively cautious in their evaluations of Clark and he's underrated, you've got a good deal of ammo. This is the kind of camp offer that I like to see: an under-the-radar kid with a big ceiling. Sometimes they never work out (Mike Cox), but at least you're not picking up a guy whose top end is decent. Add in Clark's loyalty, dedication, and frame and Michigan may have something here.
Etc.: Enjoys Lil' Wayne and The Hangover($), confirming that he is a teenager living in 2012. All State, obviously. Magnus is sad. Feel better, Magnus!
Clark had 70 tackles, 15 pass breakups, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, three interceptions and four defensive touchdowns as a senior. During his junior season, Clark had 75 tackles, eight pass breakups and three interceptions.
"A guy that we had in camp and watched run around and watched his film and thought he was a great fit."
Scored a lot of touchdowns on defense and special teams, including a fumble rumble, an 81-yard punt return, and going 3 for 3 on housing interceptions.
Why Ernest Shazor? Admittedly a huge reach since Shazor was one of the most touted recruits in the country and Clark is… not. But it was either that or pick a 6'0" kid. This seems less inaccurate.
Shazor is the only Michigan safety in recent memory with a frame comparable to Clark. What Clark lacks in recruiting hype and the athleticism that saw Shazor become a five star he will hopefully make up for by not being a complete nutcase who gave up more long touchdowns than anyone during Michigan's long search for halfway competent safety play. Shazor started out of necessity, blew it time and again,—he's still looking for Deandra Cobb—checked out entirely after murdering Dorien Bryant to save that one Purdue game, and went from a projected second rounder to out of football in a month or two.
If anything, this is being harsh to Clark. If he starts for as long as Shazor does he'll be a much better player.
Guru Reliability: Low. Kentucky is not heavily scouted and Clark was a virtual nobody until his commitment, when the sites shrugged and gave him the Default Three Stars We Give Almost All Random Michigan Sleeper Commits.
Variance: Large, large, large. A junior year injury, the growth spurt, the uncertainty about speed and the obscure location.
Ceiling: High. 6'4" safeties who can go are rarities.
General Excitement Level: Give it a B+. Clark's profile does fit that of a plausible sleeper, and his size will be a major asset if he works out. The link above in which Tom talks to Clark's father gives the impression that he comes from a high-quality environment, as does his refusal to consider anyone other than M even when he was on a grayshirt, and he should come close to maxing out that talent. I like Clark's profile more than most of Michigan's three-stars this year; he's not quite Sleeper of the Year but I give him a good shot at being a contributor.
Projection: Obvious redshirt with 4-6 guys likely in front of him this fall including classmate Jarrod Wilson, an early enrollee. After that he looks like a free safety all the way, hopefully one with sufficient instincts and straight-line speed to bring that frame into play. That means another year cooling his heels behind Thomas Gordon before being in serious contention for a job.
I kind of think he gets one, though. Wilson will provide stiff competition but may do so at strong safety after bulking up. Clark's never going to be the guy you want charging down into the box to Kovacs people and brings a skillset to free safety that could be tough to match.

This is going to be very much a "best of" compilation adaptation
So it's all the way up to Schierke? Okay, then it's going to be like 100 hours right? This is going to be very much a "best of" compilation adaptation, I just hope they do a better job of which events to put into the game as opposed to what the anime movies did (or shall I say, did not include).
My thoughts exactly. This does not bode well on the faithfulness front.I think a lot of people here might not be familiar with what the Musou franchise is all about. Just to be very clear: they have not historically been quality games. The core concept is fine, but those are games that are by nature very repetitive, and they have been sloppily remade again and again and again until the point where the only way they can be sold anymore is through skins: Fist of the North Star, One Piece, Dragon Quest, Zelda... and now Berserk.Apparently Hyrule Warriors was pretty neat, but remember this likely had Nintendo execs overlooking its development. Nothing guarantees the Berserk version will be as good. Due to the intricate story of Berserk they're pushing themselves to change the formula a bit and that could be good, but you guys should probably hold your expectations in check.
It sounds like this is going to be one of those "junk food" games, games that have no substance so once the novelty of it wears off it's no longer enjoyable. With that said, I have enough sucker in me to buy it because Berserk. I hope it ends up pleasantly surprising us.
As long as it's a good junk food game...
Is Mr. Miura interested in the game adaptation of his creation?Koinuma: Since we announced Koei will be working on a Berserk Warriors, Mr. Miura has sent us a New Years Postcard every single year haha. Mr. Miura is a man grounded in reality and he really wanted the Warriors feeling to remain, but with a Berserk flair, he's even supervised the creation of the game from the very start.
Is this real or is it another poor translation?

Microsoft: SORRY for the BORKED Xbox One disc drives, here's a free game
Download and play while you wait for fixed gear to show up
Microsoft is offering a free game download to players whose new Xbox One consoles suffering from broken disc drives.
The tech titan said users waiting for a working replacement system to arrive will be able to download one of the company's branded titles to the broken console to keep them busy while awaiting the swap.
"While a replacement console is on its way, we want to ensure our advance exchange customers can stay in the game," the company said in a statement to El Reg.
"We will provide each of them with a free digital download of one of the launch titles published by Microsoft Studios."
The Windows giant admitted a number of the new Xbox One units have been found to have faulty optical disc drive hardware. Users have reported that the drives have made clicking or crunching sounds when attempting to read inserted game discs.
While the disc issue was the most widely reported defect in the fresh-off-the-assembly-lines Xbox Ones, some folks reported other problems including HDMI connection issues and a lingering "green screen of death" condition.
Sony fanbois should refrain from being too smug about Microsoft's launch woes. The competing PlayStation 4 has suffered its own hardware problems as a small number of consoles simply give up and flash a blue status light to indicate a fatal fault.
Microsoft reported strong sales of the first crop of Xbox One units, shifting some 150,000 units in the UK alone over the first weekend on sale. Overall, however, the new console has yet to enter the market in force, lagging behind the last-generation Xbox 360 and PS3 consoles in sales. ®

Advanced Real Property
Course Number: LAW 636
Course Credits: 3
Advanced Property serves as a bridge to Pace's real estate transactions and land use courses. The course has a transactional focus, helping students incorporate the substantive concepts covered in the first-year property course into transactions involving a transfer of some property interest. Students may be asked to prepare the relevant documents for a commercial lease. Such an exercise will require knowledge and application of the basic rules for contracting and of leases, but will also cause students to think about the practical issues that need to be anticipated in the lease documents. The course will also include a study of the differences in transfer for intellectual property transactions and as they may be involved in the purchase of a business. The course will offer coverage of common interest communities, including homeowners' associations, cooperatives and condominiums. In the current first year property course, little time is available for the study of these forms of joint ownership even though nearly one out of every six Americans, or 42 million people live in common interest communities. These forms of common ownership raise all sorts of public policy issues, particularly those about closed communities. Extensive coverage will be given to easements and covenants in transactions, considering public regulation of such private agreements as a demonstration of the intersection of land use law and transactions. In the end, we conclude with a formal discussion of public land use controls and new thoughts on planning.

This week during 100 Days of Modern Quilting we will look at quilts made "Using What You Have". As the name implies Modern Quilts that are made from "Using What You Have" generally fall into one of two categories. First there are quilts that use scraps leftover from other quilts or sewing projects.
Second, there are quilts that are made at least in part from re-purposed or re-claimed fabric. This is fabric that was once a piece of clothing or maybe even a vintage sheet. It will be cut up and the fabric will be given a new life in the form of a quilt.
This week is fun in that in many way, it ties "Modern Quilts" back to its roots. Many early quiltmakers were very good at "Using What They Had" to make their quilts regardless if it were scraps from sewing a work shirt or if it was a dress that had seen better days.
We hope that this week you will enjoy looking at different ways modern quilters use what they have to create beautiful functional quilts!

New Projects:
- I-Spy Pinwheel Quilt - My husband's cousin's daughter (so his second cousin I believe) was over this weekend (she's almost 4) and we were looking through all my fabrics together. She loved them and then sweetly asked that I sew the pretty ones into a blanket and give it to her for her birthday (End of March). I just couldn't say no, so the new project was born. I'm using charm squares from an I-Spy swap and making a pinwheel quilt. I'm planning on doing a mini-tutorial once I'm done in case anyone else wants to make one. So far I cut all the white, made all the HSTs and spent last night trimming them up. Now time to sew them together :)
|All 96 HSTs!
- Quilting for Kids Block - I saw that the Quilting for Kids group on Flickr was making a new quilt and was looking for asterisk blocks. I made mine this week and sent it out!
In Progress:
- On a Whim - Finished sewing the backing together and mailed out to be quilted! Can't wait to get it back and finish it up. I need to sit down this weekend and embroider a little patch for the back with their names/wedding date.
- Sew.Happy.Quilt. QAL - I made last week's block, which I need to get a picture of, and I need to make this week's block.
- Mini Mixer - I took my little mixer block from last week, added some border, quilted it (first time FMQ on my machine!!), bound it and hung it up in the kitchen. I LOVE it :) I used this tutorial to make the block.
I've got some more projects coming up, and I've been majorly slacking on my Swoon so I need to work on that this week too. I also (finally!) got a free motion foot for my machine so I have a few quilt tops that need quilting too! What's on your to-do list for the next week?
Also, I'm organizing a green fabric charm swap! I almost have everything together for it so if you're interested in joining stop back here later this week to sign up.
I'm linking up over at Freshly Pieced. Hope you have a great week!

The essence of enjoying a scary movie is that we can hit our target heart rate while enjoying large quantities of snacks. Cardio and candy — a win-win.
I was predisposed to find "Paranormal Activity 4" a total waste of time, aside from my beloved Junior Mints. Happily, it managed to consistently keep up the tension with very little bloodshed.
Thanks to smart phones, Skype and Xbox, we get caught up in the life of teenage Alex (Kathryn Newton) and her friend Ben (Matt Shively) and their take on events when a stranded neighbor boy (Brady Allen) starts hanging out at her home.
What's noteworthy about the "P.A." stories is the slow build, punctuated by well-timed fake-outs and nervous humor, into the genuinely chilling stuff. There is no soundtrack to warn us of what's to come, just a curious low humming that sets you on edge more than the mysterious things that go bump (or airborne) in the night.
The story doesn't bear close scrutiny, questions go unanswered, but you're still a wreck from the anticipation.
When the activity went seriously paranormal in the final five minutes, there were goose bumps and a fear I hadn't felt since "PA3." Rarest of all — I forgot to eat my chocolates.
Maybe I'll save them for "PA5."
'Cross' a bloody mix of emotions
Tyler Perry made a fortune with his character in drag in the "Madea" franchise. They are part of his long B-movie series featuring broad comedy with sentimental dramatic touches. He abandons this former acting persona in "Alex Cross" to play a tough-minded cop working the mean streets of Detroit.
Based on the novels of James Patterson, Cross is a detective who also has a doctorate in psychology. This makes him a prime cinema candidate to deal with a psycho serial killer stalking prominent residents of the motor city. Matthew Fox plays the demented assassin who has the operational skills of James Bond.
Edward Burns plays the cop who partners with Cross to track down the bad guy. They go through routine police procedure as they uncover predictable clues that lead to the killer. Perry clearly wants to step up his acting game to include serious dramatic roles. But this film is a strange mix of casual cruelty and grim torture combined with emotional family connections. In the end, it's a bloody revenge saga with little redeeming social value for a general audience.

Klaassen, Martin (1820-1881)
Martin Klaassen: teacher in the village of Köppental, Trakt Mennonite Settlement, Russia. Martin was b. 27 April 1820 in Schönsee, Prussia, the second of eight children of Jacob Klaassen (15 March 1793 - 17 May 1879) and Helena (Hamm) Klaassen (26 April 1793 - 23 May 1870). Martin married Maria Hamm (21 October 1829, Orloff, Prussia - 12 March 1904, USA) on 6 October 1855. Maria was the daughter of Michael Hamm (25 April 1790 - 25 November 1862) and Helena (Klaassen) Hamm (7 June 1798 - 11 February 1866). Martin and Maria had seven children, with three living to adulthood: Michael, Jacob, and Helena. Martin d. 24 November 1881 in Serabulak, Turkestan.
Martin and his parents immigrated to the Trakt Mennonite Settlement in the 1850s from Prussia, with Martin settling in Hahnsau. Martin and his family followed Claas Epp to Central Asia in 1880, where Martin died the following year. His widow Maria immigrated to the USA in 1884 with their surviving children, settling first in Beartrice, Nebraska before moving to Oklahoma in 1894.
Martin is best known for his book, Geschichte der wehrlosen taufgesinnten Gemeinden von den Zeiten der Apostel bis auf die Gegenwart (Danzig, 1873), written when exemption from military service was at issue in Russia. His purpose was to follow nonresistance as a Christian principle through the history of the church, and by giving a connected historical account of nonresistant brotherhoods who remained true to the Gospel of Jesus, to encourage the Mennonites of his day to hold fast to the principle. He divided the history of these brotherhoods into three periods: The first period began early in the third century, when the first "Anabaptists" opposed the secularized church, and extended to Peter Waldus; the second period extends to Menno Simons, and the third to 1873. He did not believe, however, that these various groups belonged together. Their stamp of connectedness was derived from their adherence to the Word of God. This book was written with warm devotion and was not without its effect.

- For the weapon, see Typhoon (weapon).
|Usable by
|Casting time
|Instant cast
|30 sec (GCD 1.5 sec)
|Level required
|Related debuff
Typhoon is a Druid talent available at level 45.
Notes Edit
- Typhoon is a frontal cone ability, which means it will cast in front of you in a flat cone shape. The effect will only hit targets that are on your horizontal plane, meaning it does not shoot uphill or downhill.
- The area typhoon affects increases width-wise as it travels away from the caster, meaning that typhoon will not hit targets that are to your sides but very close to you; however, because it is a cone shape, if a target is not directly in front of you, but is farther ahead of you, typhoon will hit that target.
- Typhoon's range is misleadingly large and it is very easy to accidentally pull mobs or hit far away players that don't seem like they will be in range of typhoon. The most common way this happens is when people do not know that area typhoon affects widens greatly as it reaches its furthest point away from the caster.
Tips and tactics Edit
- Though similar to many spells, Typhoon is technically its own unique spell, combining effects and mechanics of other spells rather than being a mimic of a particular spell.
- Typhoon can be used to knock enemy players and mobs off of any kind of ledge, including cliffs, boats, platforms, tops of buildings, etc. Typhoon will not knock players or mobs off of cliffs with invisible walls.
- The knockback of this ability can be used to interrupt spells, but should be used early because:
- Typhoon is an instant-cast spell, but it still has a travel time. This means that targets immediately in front of you will be hit the moment you cast, but targets far away will not.
- Typhoon can be used in place of Hurricane if there are many mobs with low health or if other AoE is taking care of things in order to save a lot of mana in quick aoe situations.
- Due to the daze effect it is often used to grief players on flying mounts while flagged such as in WG by knocking them off to their death for cheap and easy honor, or killing AFK players in the same fashion.
Patch changesEdit
- Patch 5.2.0 (5-Mar-2013): Typhoon now has a 30-second cooldown (was 20 seconds).
- Patch 5.0.4 (28-August-2012): Updated.
- Patch 4.0.6 (8-Feb-2011): Typhoon mana cost has been reduced by 50%.
- Patch 3.3.3 (2010-03-23): Mana cost reduced to 25%, down from 32%. Lower ranks of this spell displayed incorrect damage information on tooltips.
- Patch 3.2.2 (2009-09-22): The daze duration has been increased from 3 seconds to 6 seconds, and the knock-back distance increased to 20 yards
- Patch 3.1.0 (14-Apr-2009): Now causes a 3-second daze.

See her new show currently at Wally Workman Gallery in Austin.
If I could, I would describe to you why I am drawn to her paintings.
Her use of color, and her broad, simple strokes are magical.
Clearly they capture my love of color, and people and life... in a big way.
Beyond that, though,
it's difficult for me to put into words why certain work appeals to me.
I just respond, emotionally and visually.
I feel it.
I just know when I love a painting, a sculpture, a piece of art.
America does a much better job of describing her work here for you.
Take a minute and watch the video.
Isn't she a doll?
All photos mine, taken at Carver Hill Gallery in Rockland. Maine.

The Minnesota Vikings hope that one of their many undrafted free agents has a little bit of his father in him.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday that the Vikings will sign wide receiver Duron Carter, the son of former Vikings Hall of Fame pass-catcher Cris Carter, who confirmed the move to The Star Tribune.
Duron floated from Ohio State to Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College, and from Alabama to Florida Atlantic during a college odyssey repeatedly derailed by academic woes.
"He. Just. Hates. (Bleeping). School," Cris Carter told USA Today's Mike Garafolo earlier this month.
His father insists Duron will thrive in a football-only environment, saying, "I know there aren't a lot of better receivers than him in this draft."
Duron's former Coffeyville quarterback, Cayden Cochran, remains unimpressed, calling the wideout on Twitter: "the most lazy, whiny & non-work ethic player the nfl has ever seen ... Horrible person & will be a complete cancer to any team on the board."
Opinions on Duron are all over the map, but the Vikings haven't taken a risk by adding him to their class of undrafted free agents. If Duron matures and blooms, they've unearthed a gem. If he doesn't, the Vikings will move on without a care.
UPDATE: USA Today reported later Sunday that Duron Carter has not yet signed with the Vikings, but he has been invited to try out for the team, according to general manager Rick Spielman.
USA Today added Carter has been invited to try out with the Baltimore Ravens, too.

New Data Show Drought Fading in Minnesota
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - New data are showing the first major improvement in Minnesota's drought situation since last fall.
An updated map from the U.S. Drought Monitor on Thursday rates two-thirds of Minnesota as still being in drought. But that's a significant improvement from 98 percent previously.
And the map shows the severity of Minnesota's drought is fading. About 20 percent of the state had been in an extreme drought. Now none of Minnesota is. Most areas that had been in extreme drought have been upgraded to severe, while most areas that were the severe category have been upgraded to moderate.
The Drought Monitor looks not only at precipitation, which has been significant lately, but other factors too, including soil moisture and lake and stream levels, which have been improving as Minnesota thaws out.

We make it possible for competitive athletes and coaches to get more value from their athletic training with less effort. To do so, we concentrate on optimizing the following processes:
- Managing Training: We mimic and respect organizational hierarchies; build everything around a calendar and provide real time updates with a robust notification system.
- Analyzing Performance Through Video Analysis: We make it easy for the videos to go from the camera to the users and we provide users with easy to use, real time video analysis features to make the most of the videos.
*Competitive Comparison*

* Style *
- The icons need to fit in with the general look and feel and color scheme of the site. http://demo.skiclubz.com/

- The icons need to fit in well with the notifications widget and the dashboard. (image attached; the icons on the image are from fugue).
- We would like to see a set with shadows and one without shadows.

Battle Of The Divulge
My boyfriend won't "friend" my friends or relatives on Facebook. He says he doesn't want to worry about censoring his posts or friends' comments. Well, I have a handful of friends, and now a brother and a cousin, who've told me that he never responded to their friend request, and I worry that they'll think he is rude or doesn't like them.
Your boyfriend probably prefers your brother remember him for the wonderful way he helped your granny and not for how he looks in that photo his friend likes to post -- the one where he's passed out on someone's bathroom floor with a bra draped across his chest and "Princess" written across his face with a Sharpie.
Although privacy is reportedly dead, it's his right to be one of those holdouts who refuses to be a 24-hour gas station of personal information. The problem comes in his ignoring your friends and family -- tossing their friend requests in the Internet landfill with all the personal messages from African warlords with $19 million in diamonds to share with a trustworthy total stranger. Tell your boyfriend you're afraid feelings are getting hurt, and suggest he message people back with something like, "Thanks, but I mainly use Facebook to stay in touch with a few old friends. Hope to see more of you in real life." It's gracious but boundary-maintaining, and if you break up, his lack of connectedness should provide a healthy barrier between him and explosive revelations about your new boyfriend, such as what he had for lunch.

Cturner needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 105 designs submitted by 38 freelance designers.
House Research Institute
House Ear Institute, the world's leading medical organization for hearing related diseases and disorders, is changing its name to House Research Institute to recognize its broadening mission.
Below is the current logotype. The stylized cochlea (part of the inner ear that looks like a shell) is often printed in gold and burgundy, an accent color that is often used with the current logo.
Grateful patients, individual donors, foundations, and corporations
For the future logo:
We would like for the name to be a part of the entire logotype, not just a symbol alone. Therefore, type font selection is also an important part of any design consideration.
We are a serious medical research and education organization so the image should not be whimsical.
The logo should reproduce well in black and white and gray tone as well as color. We are open to other color choices.
The logo may be used with and without taglines. Our new tagline will be "improving lives through hearing science". How the tagline is incorporated in the design is important.
Some words that have been used to describe the Institute include:
Forward thinking and forward moving
Traditional values
Leading edge science
