Rashad Reed had 28 points for the Panthers.
FERRUM, Va. -- Ferrum College trimmed a 27-point deficit to five points late in the game, but dropped an Old Dominion Athletic Conference men's basketball game 76-64 to Lynchburg College tonight at Swartz Gym.
Lynchburg jumped out 25-8 lead in the first seven minutes of play and never trailed. The Hornets extended the lead to 27 points with 5:57 left in the first half, but Ferrum used a 14-7 run to get to within 20 points at the break.

I don't know when I'm getting married – 38-year-old Delay
By M. Y Bawa
- in Celebrity News, Entertainment
At 38, TV presenter and entrepreneur, Deloris Frimpong-Manso popularly known as Delay, isn't doing badly for herself at all. Her Delay Show is in its 11th year and her products Delay Mackerel, Delay Tomato Paste and Delay Sardine are doing very well on the market.
However, it seems for many people, her success will be incomplete if she does not get married and she has to constantly deal with her fans asking when she is getting married.
In person and on social media, people keep telling her to get married but when Showbiz caught up with her at the Alisa Hotel last Thursday, Delay said she did not know when she would get married.
"I'm a spontaneous, free-spirited person. I take my life as it comes, so I don't put myself in that box saying I am getting married tomorrow," was her answer.
The Delay Show is undoubtedly one of the most watched TV shows in the country and has stirred controversy while also giving the public more insight into their personalities' lives. So how has she managed to sustain her show for a good 11 years?
"It's the passion and the love I have for it. It's not like a job for me. I just love it, that is why even when I am sick, I still have the urge to shoot. I used to have a passion for radio and I have transferred it to TV," she said.
Over the years, Delay has interviewed everyone who matters in the entertainment industry as well as those from other sectors such as religion and sports.
She told Showbiz her most difficult interview was with footballer, John Paintsil. "He gave me yes and no answers throughout. He was so guarded it wasn't funny. It was a very difficult one for me," she said.
For the show to survive this long, there must be something Delay is doing right or is it her guests? "It's a two-way street. The celebrities contribute and I contribute and that is what has kept the show going," she stated.
Delay said although the celebrities also contributed to the success of the show, she brought an X-factor to it. "There are lots of musicians in Ghana but Daddy Lumba has stood the test of time and remained relevant all these years."
Asked why she puts out a lot of information about her guests but everything about her is shrouded in secrecy, this is what Delay said, "I am not a guest on the show. I am just a host."
So what next after the Delay Show? "I have shot another series, the Delay Show is the tree and the others are branches. I am watering the tree and all others come later," she said.
Delay had some advice for young people."Nobody gives you power, power to succeed in life or business. You have to take it yourself.
"We should not let our roots, colour, looks, background or gender restrict us. We can be anything we want to be in life and I am a living proof of that."

The CEO of 2U Inc States that His Company Believes in the Open Source Movement [Video]
On the last day of the ASU+GSV Summit, Chip Paucek (CEO of 2U Inc.) and Anant Agarwal (CEO of edX) appeared together for the first time publicly, with the mission to convince skeptics and critics of the goodness and benefits for the industry of their recent merger.
The two executives appeared on stage in the main session of the third and final day of the ASU+GSV Summit, which took place in San Diego this week. Deborah Quazzo, Managing Partner of GSV Ventures moderated this fireside chat.
Chip Paucek and Anant Agarwal shared the same message of alignment in the mission and plans for the future. "The mission commitment made this deal," 2U's CEO said, and the edX chief responded, "No doubt."
"We will become the most powerful learning platform in the world," said Paucek. "2U is Alphabet and edX, Google."
Acknowledging the difficulties of merging a Wall Street traded corporation with an educational non-profit organization, Anant Agarwal said: "Profit and non-profits are like oil and water, but in this case, 2U has legally abide by our mission."
Deborah Quazzo asked about the Open edX open-source software, which will be governed by a newly created non-profit organization by MIT and Harvard University. Chip Paucek insisted on 2U's commitment to becoming the first contributor to the Open edX software, and said: "We believe in the open-source movement."
Anant Agarwal reinforced the idea by saying that "2U has become the world's biggest developer of Open edX."
Chip Paucek also disclosed that Anant Agarwal's son, Akash was working as an intern at 2U, which helped in their two organizations' alignment.
Agarwal highlighted that the Open edX will be enhanced with the new influx of financial resources, and anticipated that "AI will be built in a broader way."
Executives of the two organizations traveled to San Diego to meet and know each other, and for two days socialized and tried to bond.

Ok, so what is a GoGirl?
Simply put, GoGirl is the way to stand up to crowded, disgusting, distant or non-existent bathrooms. It&#39s a female urination device that allows you to urinate while standing up. It&#39s neat. It&#39s discreet. It&#39s hygienic.
GoGirl is easy to use. Just hold GoGirl against your body, forming a seal. Aim and, well, pee. Pretty simple?
If you camp, you&#39ll love GoGirl. If you ski, you&#39ll love GoGirl. If you boat, you&#39ll love GoGirl. If you travel, you&#39ll love GoGirl. If you just want to avoid the germs you find in nasty public toilets, you&#39ll love GoGirl. GoGirl is for active women of all types and ages. Practice a couple of times in the shower first and you&#39ll be peeing like a pro in no time!
Because life&#39s greatest adventure should not be finding a bathroom!
It&#39s a kit in a tube ready to go!
This saves me on camping trips, hiking and even at races when you are dealing with a Porta Potty from hell!

Anna and Arnaud: a moving duo
Rob Wilson | September 8, 2022 | Art | No Comments
The Anne and Arnaud series delves into the heart of the tried bonds of a mother-son relationship and the difficulties inherent to the world surrounding homelessness. Not only does the eight-episode miniseries promise a plethora of emotions and prove to be touching, but it will undoubtedly ensure a change of perspective on a harsh, misunderstood and infinitely complex reality.
Free adaptation of Francine Ruel's novel, Anna and the child-old man, the series recounts his relationship with his son Étienne, who lived on the street for part of his adult life.
In order to better depict the world of homelessness and drug addiction, François Archambault also met Étienne, Francine's son, about fifteen times.
"Many of his anecdotes nourished me in writing", explains the playwright.
We find this attention to detail mixed with a beautiful sensitivity in the first two episodes presented to the media on Wednesday.
"However, the goal was not to imitate Étienne, specifies Nico Racicot who portrays the character of Arnaud. Étienne has his life, Arnaud his. Yes, it is inspired by the life of Etienne, but it is not a verbatim, nor an imitation. »
Guylaine Tremblay is the mother of Arnaud in the series which reserves bright moments.
Two events
The series thus opens with two events that echo each other: the difficult childbirth of Anna (played by Guylaine Tremblay) in 1990, where she almost lost her baby, and scenes that seem to evoke an accident where she would have failed losing his son a second time. "Since then, fear has been with me," says Anna's voiceover.
We then find Arnaud (played by Nico Racicot) in 2021, begging between the cars. As for Anna, whether it is the sight of a helium balloon or the passage of homeless people lying on park benches, her universe is inhabited by a dull concern: it is impossible to live a normal daily life without being continually brought back to the reality of his son who has become itinerant.
This is followed by a dive in 2010 where Arnaud is 20 years old, is in love with Charlotte (Ellicyane Paradis), inhabited by a travel project and eager to try the auditions at the Conservatory in music in guitar.
No downside: he is close to his "Mamita", from a loving family, parents divorced, nothing more. At the dawn of the departure, Arnaud is shot from a car after an evening with his lover. We will find him on the operating table with a mother eaten away by anguish. He will not recover from this attack. This is where its descent into the streets begins.
The two main actors during the viewing of the series.
In her role, Guylaine Tremblay is overwhelming. Nico Racicot's game is also remarkable. The duo of actors offer a subtle performance: the son does not hesitate to manipulate his mother, who spends money to dress him without being fooled.
As for Louis Bélanger's production, it is carried with great sensitivity. "We had a lot of freedom from the broadcaster and the producers. I wanted to approach the project with modesty, because I want viewers to love the humanity of these characters, no matter if they make bad decisions. »
The concern for truth was also important for Bélanger. The reality of the street is depicted at times in a disarming way, attempting to demystify it in many ways. For example, we understand that drug addicts must take responsibility for protecting themselves against overdoses and obtain naloxone from their pharmacist. We guess that the trajectory will be thorny, but the two episodes suggest that there will also be light emanating from the series.
Anna and Arnaud will air Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on TVA, starting September 13.

I used to eat quinoa a lot before I even had celiac disease because it had more protein than other carbs, which I need more when I'm strength training. Now I get to experiment with this nutty flavored ingredient to find new and fun gluten-free foods to eat since I'm getting bored with the usual. Most of my recipes will be 10 ingredients or less because that's just how I work. Simple. Easy. So check out my new gluten-free quinoa recipe!
You can also cook it in broth but be careful it is gluten-free broth!
Aaron and I decided to try it both with salmon and crab. We divided up the batter into 2 bowls.
Both were cooked the exact same way….
Cooked in grass-fed butter on low heat, one heaping spoon molded in egg-shaped and flatten out like pancake, both sides until crisp. Once they were done, we took them out and put them on paper towels to absorb the extra butter from the pan.
I topped mine with lactose free sour cream and preferred the crab cakes.
Aaron topped his with ketchup (gross) and enjoyed the salmon ones better.


Following our successful Round 2 Grant Award, we're delighted to say we now have official Permission to Start which allows us to move on with the project and to confirm contracts for Phase 2. Celia Sinclair, Chair, signed the construction contract with Clark Contracts on Monday October 30th.
As we prepare to open in summer 2018, there are many aspects to the restoration of the building. We're now building up the project office team and are in the process of commissioning local crafts people to restore and make over 420 pieces of furniture, glass ware, wrought iron work, carpets, textiles and more.
We'll be increasing our marketing and PR activities and we're working in partnership with many prestigious organisations, for example with Dumfries House who will provide training and support for our front of house and catering staff when we open for business.
We continue to welcome the support of our funders and other partners including of course the Heritage Lottery Fund and not forgetting all the National Lottery Players whose support enables The Heritage Lottery Fund to support this and other great projects.
The Board of Trustees and Expert Mackintosh Advisory Panel continue to ensure every detail of the restoration is as it should be.

Simple Phones: Still Great After All These Years
Flip phones and bar phones, voice phones and feature phones...they're a sideshow in today's mobile market, but there's a lot to like if you're looking for simplicity. I stepped back to 2004 this week and reviewed 5 of them!
bySascha Segan May 07, 2021
I've been steeping myself in simple voice phones for the past week, which feels like getting back to my roots. Back when I first joined PCMag in 2004, reviewing bar phones and flip phones was a big part of my job. Now they're just a sideshow in a smartphone-dominated market.
These streamlined handsets are predominantly owned by people 65 and over, and people who make less than $30,000. According to Pew, 85% of Americans own smartphones, and only 12% own voice phones. But 12% of the population is still millions of people, and pretty soon they'll all be shopping for new phones. Carriers are ditching old 2G and 3G networks because they use airwaves less efficiently than 4G, and that's going to turn a lot of older voice phones into doorstops. So I decided to go all in with testing the latest and, in some cases, greatest voice phones.
This week I took a look at the inexpensive Nokia 225 4G ($49.99), Nokia 6300 4G ($69.99), and Nuu F4L ($79.99), and the costlier Sunbeam F1 ($195) and Punkt MP02 ($349). Waiting on my desk for next week is the Kyocera DuraXE Epic ($269.99). I've also, in the past, liked the Sonim XP3 ($240) and the Kyocera DuraXV Extreme ($240).
These phones generally fit into three categories: low-end basic phones, such as the Nokias and the Nuu F4L; classy "digital disconnector" models, such as the Light Phone II ($350), the Punkt, and the Sunbeam; and beefy ruggedized phones from Kyocera and Sonim.
Like what you're reading? You'll love it delivered to your inbox weekly. Sign up for the Race to 5G newsletterSign up for the Race to 5G newsletter.
Unfortunately, many inexpensive 4G voice phones tend to be sluggish, sloppy, and buggy. One of the phones I tested, the Jethro SC490, wanted to send my location data to China. If you want quality, you'll have to pay for it: My favorite voice phone so far, the Sunbeam F1, runs on hand-crafted American software, but it costs $195. If you really have a tight budget, the Nokia 225 4G isn't bad, and the Nokia 6300 4G is pretty good.

So what's stopping phone manufacturers from putting out inexpensive, functional voice phones for the low-income people who want them? Right now, it's the software, which is both too modern and not modern enough.
Low-power older OSes designed for voice phones can't handle high-quality synchronous voice calling over packet-based 4G networks. Most voice phones run variants of Android and other smartphone operating systems that demand a huge amount of power for the seemingly simple task of making a call. They can usually only manage about 6 hours of talk time before running out of juice.
For some reason, all the Android-based voice phones I tested this week use Android 8.1. (I asked Google why this might be the version of choice for voice phones; the company didn't have a response.) And the texting app built into Android 8.1 has no idea what group texts are: It can read them, but it will only reply directly to a message's sender. Since most people use group texts at least occasionally, that's a big problem.
A company can invest in its own operating system (like Sunbeam's BasicOS or Nokia's Series 30+) or custom apps (like Punkt's Pigeon implementation of Signal), but that costs money. So at the discount end of the market, you get Android 8.1 phones that struggle with calling and texting. And since the whole point of voice phones is that they mostly can't run apps or get onto the internet, there's not much left to justify owning one. That's going to remain the case until someone figures out an inexpensive way to bring voice phone software into the era of 4G and 5G.
Would you ever consider a voice phone? Let's talk about it in the comments.
What Else Happened This Week?
Verizon proved it can merge C-Band and millimeter-wave. This is important because it plans to market both technologies as "ultra wideband." Now there won't be a big consumer experience break between them.
More than 500,000 people have signed up for Starlink. Elon Musk says they can serve a half-million users, but millions might be "a challenge." This syncs with what I've learned about Starlink satellite capacity. I'm still testing T-Mobile's home internet, by the way. Speeds are good, but latency is all over the place, from "great" to "can't make a Zoom call."
There's a viral story going around about foldable iPhones that may not be true. It's just based on one analyst's speculation. Is Apple working on a foldable iPhone? Of course. Will they ship 15 million of them in 2023? Remember, a thousand no's for every yes.
Asus is launching a new line of ZenFones next week. Apparently they're going to have flip-up cameras. Asus' approach to the US market is perpetually perplexing; it's like that kid who keeps dipping one foot in the pool and running away.

The 20 Best Horror Stories Available Online for Free
Column by Max Booth III	October 25, 2017
Brian Evenson
Shirley Jackson
Stephen Graham Jones
It's Halloween, so let's celebrate by reading some spooky stories available online for free. You have no excuse not to take a look at every single one of these. And hey, maybe buy a couple of the books linked below each entry. You can't go wrong with any of them.
20. "The Yellow Wall-Paper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1892)
This is probably one of the most reprinted horror stories of all time, and for good reason. Go insane with its tortured narrator and read it here.
19. "The Night Wire" by H. F. Arnold (1926)
Not a lot is known about H. F. Arnold except for the fact that he wrote what is considered one of the most famous stories ever to be published in Weird Tales. Try googling the author, you're not going to find much information about him. But goddamn could he write. "The Night Wire" deals with two graveyard-shift radio operators and a strange, unknown town in the process of being swallowed by fog. I love the story so much I even reprinted it in my anthology, Lost Signals, but you can read it for free over on Wikisource.
18. "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson (1948)
A classic! Even if you haven't read it, you probably already know the twist. Always a fun story to revisit.
17. "A Good Man is Hard to Find" by Flannery O'Connor (1953)
With an ending that'll leave you feeling haunted years after reading it, Flannery O'Connor's "A Good Man is Hard to Find" is pretty much perfect. I love all of her work, but this one here takes the cake. Enjoy.
16. "William and Mary" by Roald Dahl (1959)
Most people recognize Roald Dahl's name from the many fantastical children's books he penned throughout the second half of the twentieth century. You may be surprised to learn that he also wrote his share of adult horror stories, and "William and Mary" might be one of his best. Sharing the same morbid dark humor as Re-Animator, this short story deals with life after death, mad scientists, and vengeful wives. Read it here.
15. "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" by Joyce Carol Oates (1966)
Joe Hill and Paul Tremblay recently described this as "The Ultimate Halloween Story" and it's hard to disagree with them. I dare you to read this without letting it consume you with dread. This thing gets out of hand—and fast. Read it here.
14. "The Goosle" by Margo Lanagan (2008)
Prepare yourself for the most fucked-up reimagining of "Hansel and Gretel" you've ever read. From the author in a Nightmare Magazine interview:
What drew me to "Hansel and Gretel" was a Yiddish word, "gunsel," that I happened upon in the dictionary. One of its several definitions went something like, "a youth, particularly a homosexual one, kept by a tramp." So there'd been a time and place in which tramps commonly kept boys for sexual purposes—so commonly that there was a word for it? I immediately wanted to set a story there, and to tell it from the point of view of a gunsel.
From there I jumped to Hansel and Gretel simply because "gunsel" sounded similar to "Hansel." Most of the energy of a short story comes from the challenge of fitting two disparate things together, and the idea of cramming a gunsel into the structure of "Hansel and Gretel" certainly gave off sparks for me.
Read "The Goosle" here.
13. "Escape from Spiderhead" by George Saunders (2010)
Perfect for fans of Black Mirror. A hell of a blend of horror and science fiction. Prisoners being experimented on by shady government officials. My first George Saunders story but definitely not my last. Available from The New Yorker.
12. "each thing i show you is a piece of my death" by Stephen J. Barringer and Gemma Files (2010)
Easily one of the best stories I've ever read. There's no way this wouldn't be included on the list. Creepy and utterly fascinating. A "haunted film" story like no other. Read it over at Apex.
11. "Frontier Death Song" by Laird Barron (2012)
Did you honestly think this list wouldn't contain at least one Laird Barron story? Puh-leaze.
10. "Skullpocket" by Nathan Ballingrud (2014)
Here's another lengthy story, but also deeply rewarding. It's rare to find world-building so authentic and disturbing like this. Read it here.
09. "The Husband Stitch" by Carmen Maria Machado (2014)
This story is so bizarre and hypnotizing. I don't really know how to explain it. Machado is one of the best short story writers in the game right now, and she really shines in this tale. Read it here.
08. "The Devil in America" by Kai Ashante Wilson (2014)
This is a very long and depressing yet mesmerizing read. Prepare for your heart to shatter into a thousand pieces. Grab a tissue box and head on over to Tor.
07. "Lacrimosa" by Silvia Moreno-Garcia (2015)
I loved Silvia Moreno-Garcia's Certain Dark Things, and it's no real shocker that I also greatly enjoy her short fiction. "Lacrimosa" is a perfect introduction to her work, and a hell of a story. Read it on Nightmare.
06. "In the Cave of the Delicate Singers" by Lucy Taylor (2015)
Behold, the lovechild of Jeff VanderMeer's Annihilation and Neil Marshall's The Descent. Lucy Taylor introduces us to a narrator with a unique form of synesthesia that allows her to feel sounds as vibrations. And yes, as the title indicates, there's a cave involved. A cave with very tight places. I won't lie. This one was difficult to read. I don't do well with claustrophobic horror, which might be why I enjoy it so much. Brought to you by Tor.
05. "Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers" by Alyssa Wong (2015)
When I pitched this list, I knew immediately I would include Alyssa Wong's story. It's one I frequently reread and study. It's haunting, beautiful, and just a whole lot of fun. Available through Nightmare.
04. "The Night Cyclist" by Stephen Graham Jones (2016)
Have you ever ridden a bike in the middle of the night? Then I highly recommend you give "The Night Cyclist" a spin. Hell, go read everything Jones has written. But "The Night Cyclist" is a good one to embrace this Halloween. Available on Tor.
03. "Postcards from Natalie" by Carrie Laben (2016)
Holy shit, this story was a sucker punch to the gut. Just when I thought I knew where this was going, bam, another hit. I've never read Carrie Laben before but now it's my mission to seek out everything she's ever written. Read "Postcards from Natalie" on The Dark.
02. "No Matter Which Way We Turned" by Brian Evenson (2016)
Few sentences have unsettled me more than the opening line to this flash fiction by the immensely talented Brian Evenson:
No matter which way we turned the girl, she didn't have a face.
What follows is a short, disturbing tale. Read it here.
01. "eyes I dare not meet in dreams" by Sunny Moraine (2017)
How could you possibly not adore a story that begins with the following sentence?
At 2:25 a.m. on a quiet Friday night on a deserted country road in southeastern Pennsylvania, the first dead girl climbed out of her refrigerator.
Read the rest here.
And there you have it! Did I miss anything? Of course! There's no possible way I could have included everything I wanted. Drop a note below in the comments with your own recommendations. Stay spooky, folks.
Special thanks to the following for recommending some of the above titles: Jessica McHugh, Brooklyn Ann, Shane Douglas Keene, Genevra Littlejohn, Mercedes Murdock Yardley, Gage Greenwood, Kenneth Vaughan, Marc Laidlaw, Richard Thomas, Anthony Cowin, Damien Angelica Walters, Beverly Bambury, Gary B. Phillips, Alex Kane, Paul J. Garth, Leigh Harlen, and BP Gregory.

Interview with Souljar Games
Today we are joined by SoulJar Games. We first ran into them at Gamestorm 17. We were immediately impressed by Alyssa's knit beholder hat and then by their games, Torn Armor and Dice Crawl. You can see Brandon talking about them here and look for a review of Dice Crawl soon(ish). Be sure to visit them at http://souljargames.com/ and https://www.facebook.com/SoulJAR.Games
How did Souljar games come about?
We were a group of friends and industry developers who met through the wonderful means of social media. Once we encountered each other and started to talk, we knew that we had to produce something together.
What does the name mean?
HA! The truth is, we just wanted to tap into the soul of gaming: the fun, the enjoyment, the friends around the table, all sharing in the soul of what it means to play. The name was accidental, but driven by that spirit,
How did the three of you come together?
Facebook. I'd like to elaborate on that further, but the simple truth is that via the social channel of Facebook we met and were able to experience each other's views on gaming. and design.
What do each of you bring to the team?
Jim brings great game design, Jack brings stunning attention to detail and a insurmountable ability to bring red tape together, and Natalya just loves the spirit of social networking. Great games, designed and built by the best companies, delivered to your for your learned and respected consideration.
What are the challenges in having your creative team spread out?
Communication and understanding; what everyone is doing, where they are at, and bringing the mutli-faceted parts of game design together … and to your mail box … in a manner that is clear and understood by the entire team. This is a big question in many ways. Jim does an excellent job of creating a new game with wholly new mechanics, but then he doesn't necessarily know where we're at with the promotion of the same game, or gathering of component quotes, unless we make a strong attempt to communication these facts to each other. And that's really the greatest challenge: clear communication.
What is the design process like for SoulJar?
Jim dreams up a game – I'm not entirely sure how he does it – and he pitches it to the team during our next meeting. if we like the idea – and we typically do – we then get a draft set of rules and pieces from him. jack and I play the game through with friend, and at the same time jim is playing with his friends, and together we hash out any tweaks, adjustments, and changes that need to occur. Over a series of months we hash out the draft rules, bring in industry experts, give them a play test, and gather their feedback. Ultimately, at the end of the day, the final game form has had much input and the creative feedback of 24×7 gaming professionals, so by the time we're ready to crowd fund a game, we know that it's the best that it can be.
What challenges do you run into as an indie game company?
Figuring things out that the big boys already figured out years ago. Shipping to Australia and New Zealand I think is the biggest one right now =D
What lead to the creation of Dice Crawl?
The desire for a family orientated, competitive game, inspired by the dungeon crawl classics.
You ran a very successful Kickstarter campaign for Torn Armor. What was that like?
Stressful, but also rewarding. Crowd funding is an artform and the epitome of social interaction, but with hourly feedback when you are getting it right or wrong. There were great highs, but terrible lows. It is a psychological experience more terrifying than going against Cthulhu.
What lead to the design of Torn Armor?
A desire to bring about a quick to learn, low cost, skirmish based game. I love wargaming and I think that it could have a broader audience, but cost, time, and play-area holds a lot of people back. We wanted to design something that was extensible, but also provided an introduction into a much larger genre.
Any plans to revisit Gondola?
Yes, absolutely. Gondola is a great, family orientated game; who doesn't like the prospect of racing a gondola through the canals of Venice?
What are your hopes, dreams, and goals for SoulJar?
To provide entertaining and unique gaming experiences.
What's on the horizon for SoulJar?
100 AD; a politically driven games in the Roman Empire.
What's the best gaming experience you have had?
Honestly, any gaming experience in which you come away smiling, happy, content, and having bonded even more strongly with your friends … that's the best gaming experience. If we had to choose -as a team – then it would have to be Geekdad playtesting 100AD with us … and wanting to play through to the end .. and winning .. with lots of smack talk along the way. We lost … but it was glorious.
What lead you to design games?
The joy of games and wanting to give a new and unique gaming experience to the gaming audience.
What do you want people to come away with after playing a SoulJar game?
Simple to learn, deceptively deep, lots of options, fun to trounce the whole family into the dirt.
What keeps bringing you back to board/tabletop/rpg games?
Friends, family, fun.

Public Policy and Law Program Celebrates the Life of Ned Cabot

The Trinity College Public Policy and Law Program is thankful this year for the time spent with alumni/alumnae, students, faculty, and family of the late Professor of Public Policy and Law Ned Cabot on Saturday, November 3rd. The event, co-sponsored by the Public Policy and Law Program and the Office of Alumni Relations, featured many speakers and opportunities for all to reflect on Cabot's tremendous and indescribable impact on Trinity College during his many years of devoted service.
Opened by Public Policy and Law Program Director Renny Fulco, the event included remarks from Jane Cabot on behalf of the Cabot family, Professor of the Practice in Public Policy and Law Glenn Falk, who succeeded Cabot upon his retirement, Professor of Religion in Public Life Mark Silk, and Associate Professor of Political Science and Public Policy and Law Abby Williamson.
Fulco, the Program Director, reflected on the success of the event, remarking that "The gathering in Ned's honor exceeded my expectations. We were fortunate that so many members of the Cabot family joined the Trinity community in celebrating Ned's memory and his enduring contributions, as a teacher and colleague, to the Public Policy and Law Program and more broadly to campus life."
Ethan Cantor '16, a Public Policy and Law alumnus who was instrumental in planning the memorial event, added that "It was so heartwarming to see many of Professor Cabot's former students, colleagues, and family members (including grandchildren) all gathered on campus to celebrate the remarkable impact he made at Trinity."
Sarah Ballinger '14, also an alumnus, offered her reflection on the event, stating that it "was a beautiful celebration of Professor Cabot's many accomplishments and an acknowledgement of the lives he forever changed through his friendship, mentorship, and personal investment, including mine. It truly was the perfect forum to bring together those who cared deeply for Ned and to remember his contributions to Trinity community."
Dean Emeritus J. Ronald Spencer continued the program by discussing Cabot's unfinished research on the history and evolution of the Republican party. After a brief lunch, Public Policy and Law alumni delivered their own reflections on Professor Cabot and recalled their fondest memories in class.
Cantor and Julia Mardeusz '16 also provided exciting updates about the Fulco-Cabot Public Policy and Law Fund. The fund was founded in 2013 by a group of Public Policy and Law seniors who sought to provide financial assistance for students pursuing thesis research, independent studies, and internships. In 2016, Public Policy and Law seniors raised over $7,000.00 for the fund in honor of Cabot's retirement. The Class of 2016 renewed their fundraising drive following Cabot's passing this spring and raised, from alumni/alumnae, colleagues, and friends, more than $50,000.00. The fund is now endowed and will be used by the Public Policy and Law program to assist current students in the near future.
You can keep up-to-date with the Fund's progress by liking its Facebook page and you can donate to the Fund to help support the work of Public Policy and Law students by clicking here.
Fulco, speaking to Cabot's legacy, stated that "The deeply moving tributes delivered by PBPL alumni and alumnae who attended the event—from as far away as California—testified to Ned's profound impact on them as students and as young adults. As their eloquent words made clear, he continues to be both an inspiration and their North Star."
Shaun Stuer '13, another Public Policy and Law alumnus present, reflected that he "was moved by how many people–across class years and walks of life–were positively impacted by Professor Cabot. His empathy for others and passion for teaching provided so many of my classmates with a clear guidance into their respective careers. As someone who doesn't get back to campus nearly enough, it reminded me how much I loved my time spent in the Public Policy and Law department while attending Trinity."
Cantor added that what he "found to be most touching was throughout the event's speakers, common threads emerged of the Ned that everyone knew and loved: the eloquent writer, the eternal optimist, and the professor and mentor who always pushed his students to reach their full potential, just to name a few highlights. The combination of sharing favorite memories and hearing about the direction of the Public Policy and Law program filled the room with a sense of appreciation and hope that Ned's most important lessons will live on in all of the lives that he touched and the program that he helped build."
Following the event, current Public Policy and Law students had an opportunity to engage in networking with alumni/alumnae who were in attendance. Photographs of the memorial event can be viewed below and additional photographs of the networking event can be accessed here.

Upon arriving, the tour guide said "The Doctors and Nurses are waiting for us"
I think we were just too early for Ghost Hunting but this ruin probably has the most scary aura. Maybe the location has something to do with it. It's residing inside the forest unlike the other buildings which are located along the road.
The guide mentioned that every November 1, they have this activity at 12 midnight were they'll have star gazing at the 3rd floor then they'll do ghost hunting afterwards. Sounds exciting. Anyone?
The much anticipated Sunset viewing at Battery Grubbs.
The reason why I decided to have an overnight at the Island is because of this Night Lateral Tunnel tour.
During the Lights and Sounds show, we were able to walk through the Main Tunnel but during this Night tour, we were able to explore the auxiliary tunnels and the 1000-bed Lateral Hospital.
And the most exciting part of this tour, we were asked by the guide to turn off our flashlights and walk towards the end of the tunnel. It is for us to experience total darkness- just like what the soldiers experienced before.
We went back to the Inn around 8pm.
We had a short trek near the area near the sunset viewing. The most interesting part of the trek was when we pass through a Japanese Tunnel.
Going back to the Inn for breakfast.
I've decided to take my breakfast at the Restaurant's Balcony- where I can have a panoramic view of the beach and Malinta Hill.
For the free time, I decided to roam around and just take photos. Morning stroll in an island is one of the things I always imagine to do. Glad to have this opportunity.
The solo photowalk was going smoothly until my lens gave up on me. Good thing, my film roll was almost finished by the time the glass fell on the ground.
Upon walking towards the South beach, I just decided to just spent my remaining free time for drawing.
I was actually not into sketching places because I got so frustrated easily when I don't get its resemblance perfectly. But that was before I read Alain de Botton's "Art of Travel" where he talked about the advantages of travel sketching.
What I like about the spot where I spent the morning is that I felt like I owned that whole place. There were only around more of less 40 overnighters that time. And most of them were on the Pool and other activities such as Zipline, ATV, etc.
Around 10:00 am, I went back to the Inn to write several things and Pack up since the Check out time is 12nn.
So we left Corregidor by quarter to 3 then arrived at MNL around 4pm.
Another one-of-a kind adventure. A next level of "Me time". Excited for the next trip one of these days.

Interview with Roy Scheider
The Thinking Man's Action Hero
Buy Roy Scheider Movies on DVD
Producer Robert Evans called him the "thinking man's action hero." Roy Scheider died Sunday, February 10, 2008 at the age of 75. He had been nominated for two Oscars and racked up an impressive list of credits, although in recent years he appeared in just as many straight-to-video action films. His filmography includes such bona-fide classics as The French Connection (1971), Klute (1971), Jaws (1975), Marathon Man (1976), Sorcerer (1977) and All That Jazz (1979). More recently he added a touch of class to films like The Russia House (1990), Naked Lunch (1991), The Rainmaker (1997) and The Punisher (2004). He had an unforgettable face and voice and a lively spirit that endeared him to his co-workers. I had the good fortune to interview him once, by phone, while he was sitting "out on my deck, Sagaponac on the Beach on Long Island." The following is a rough transcription of our conversation, on the DVD release of The French Connection. Mr. Scheider will be missed.
Jeffrey M. Anderson: The director William Friedkin said that you were the only member of the cast he was sure about. Is that true?
Roy Scheider: I think I was one of the first people cast. I remember doing a screen test with Jimmy Breslin. I guess he just couldn't cut it as an actor. There was a casting director there, Bob Weiner, who was working for Phil [producer Philip D'Antoni] and Friedkin, he saw me lose my temper and went back to Friedkin and said, 'I think I found the guy, but I don't think you can handle him.' We had this very civil meeting, and I thought I had a chance.
JMA: Apparently Friedkin spent the entire movie badgering Gene Hackman, to get an angrier, more authentic performance.
RS: I don't remember that. Gene, early on in the shooting, saved their arguing for lunchtime. For the first few weeks, I wasn't invited [to lunch], and I wondered what I had said. Billy had a task of convincing Gene that in no way did he possess any humanitarian traits. I knew Gene, and he was just looking to make sure his character was three-dimensional. In the movie now, he seems like a one-dimensional nut-case. If you watch his face, he automatically brings [many more layers]. One of the great joys of that film was working with him. It was a joy to go to work with him every day. We did a lot of improvisation and stuff we picked up on the street. The first time we did it, we weren't hard enough and we weren't vicious enough.
JMA: How did it work having the two real-life cops, Eddie Egan and Sonny Grosso, on the set with you?
RS: It's a great asset to be able to turn to the character and ask them, what did you guys think when this happened. How would you guys react to this? How would you speak to anyone? We had intensive two-week city street training on this thing. Which is a real bonus... you don't usually get that much time. Going on the streets and going to shooting galleries and reporting back to producers what you [learned]. Eddie Egan was kind of an aggressive, loud, Irish guy. And some days his behavior was trying. And I said [to Sonny] 'my God, I know this guy's a good cop, but how do you put up with him?'
JMA: You reportedly asked Sonny to borrow his wristwatch and wedding ring...
RS: It just made me feel, for instance I didn't wear a wedding ring, and I didn't wear a watch like Sonny wore, and it just made me feel more authentic.
JMA: One of the most amazing things about this movie is that when characters run through the streets, they're really running, full-bore.
RS: How about doing it 8 or 9 times? Guys running full out. That scene was a very strong character-setting moment for those two guys. That they would run full out to get that one guys. A lot of that stuff was stolen. The cameras were hidden.
JMA: There's a lot of emphasis on the racist aspect of Gene's character...
RS: It's so politically incorrect, and I went to see it in Lowes 86th street which is kind of on the border of white and black. And when we came to that scene where I'm pissing and moaning and Gene says, 'never trust a nigger.' Well, I talked to a few African Americans then, and they said, 'we know that's what he thinks!'
JMA: Friedkin says that a lot of this was improvised.
RS: Let's say there was a basic outline of a screenplay, and we thought that [screenwriter Ernest] Tidyman got a gift, an Academy Award for that screenplay.
JMA: Friedkin liked you enough to hire you again, for Sorcerer, the remake of Wages of Fear. How did that come about? What was that like?
RS: This is the updated, extended version of [Wages of Fear], with many of the same elements in it. It was terrific. It was one of the hardest movies I've ever had to do. We shot a lot of it in the jungle in the Dominican Republic. We had to fly every morning from Santa Domingo, by helcopter, and after a while you think the odds are going down. I have my good days and my bad days. I was in the air force, and I flew for a while, before I finally washed out. I know just enough about airplanes to scare me.
JMA: You also made Marathon Man with Laurence Olivier. How did that come about?
RS: When I was making Jaws, David Brown had the galley for the book. And one day he gave me a copy of it; I wasn't working the next day and I stayed up all night and read it. I said, 'it's a page turner... too bad that one of the most interesting characters dies in the middle of the movie.' Having no idea that a year later I would play that part. Olivier was not in the best of health. He had just battled with prostate cancer, and was in a very weakened condition. He was a remarkable actor. You could see him slowly piece that character together. We used to call him 'Your Lordship' and 'Your Worcestershire,' and everything. He loved it.
JMA: I guess our time is up, but I also wanted to add how much I love Naked Lunch and your performance as Dr. Benway.
RS: Thanks. Writers tend to like that movie.

ReviewsGame Review
Claiming that the game Dante's Inferno was inspired by The Divine Comedy is like claiming that the hot dog was inspired by filet mignon. The only tangible element that the game and Dante's poem have in common is that they both involve visits to hell.
Dante, the game's main character, is a bland-faced Crusader who appears to be on a quest to find a Dirk The Daring look-alike contest. After a brief tutorial that introduces you to your weak attacks and strong attacks, Death shows up, ready to usher Dante's soul into the underworld. But Dante, feeling stubborn, decides he isn't ready to go, and he wrestles Death's gigantic bone-scythe weapon away and chops him in half with it. Who knew Death was such a candy-ass?
The game's gruesome enemies start off small and manageable, but eventually became larger and more annoying. Once you've defeated an enemy, you decide via a quick-time mini-game whether to punish its soul, or absolve it like a televangelist. Punishment unlocks new "unholy" abilities; absolution unlocks "holy" abilities. Don't fret too much over the decision, though. Both sets of abilities consist of the clichéd double-dashes and super-moves found in most third-person action games.
Around 10 minutes into the game, the first honest-to-goodness naked boob is revealed, when Dante finds his beloved, Beatrice. Like most videogame nudity, hers isn't germane to the experience, and as a result, it comes off as juvenile and misogynistic, particularly since she's impaled on a sword.
Levels are structured around the poem's circles of hell, each of which is punctuated with a fight against a large boss character. The Circle Of Lust, for example, ends with a battle against an oversized Cleopatra who secretes tiny evil demon babies from her right breast. If this sounds like Sony's God Of War, that's because Dante's Inferno wants nothing more than to be a vaguely literary, controversy-inducing God Of War clone with a greater gross-out factor. But Dante's knucklehead, tit-pursuing bravery feels misguided—and worse still, insincere when compared to Kratos' pure, self-interested anger.
Finally, no matter how dark the God Of War games get, they always maintained a zesty Clash Of The Titans-style cheesiness and energy. Not Dante's Inferno. The game's rivers of blood, corpse-piles, and wailing souls make for a morbid, depression-inducing milieu. It's a relief to be shut out of the place once the final credits roll.

The personal dust monitor (PDM) is a sampling device developed for measuring the personal exposure to coal mine dust of mine workers. The device is based on proprietary technology known as the tapered element oscillating microbalance (TEOM) originally developed as a fixed- site environmental particulate mass monitor by Rupprecht and Patashnick Co., Inc., Albany, NY. Currently, the monitoring of exposure to coal mine dust relies on periodic samples taken by traditional coal mine dust sampling units that use a cyclone, filter, pump, and laboratory measurement of the filter mass. Better measurement of mine dust levels has been the goal of industry and labor for nearly two decades. PDM technology offers accurate, end-of-shift and near real time assessment of worker dust exposure. Laboratory and underground tests compared measurements taken by a prototype PDM-2 (a two-piece TEOM) to the average of multiple personal dust samplers monitoring the same space. In the range of mass loadings P between 0.5 and 4.0 mg/m the PDM met a 25% accuracy criterion 95% of the time with 95% confidence. However, some questions still exist about potential bias between types of coal. The prototype two-piece device is in the process of being combined into a single unit that also contains the miners' cap lamp creating a more ergonomic dust sampling system.

Time: CPAC Is 'Carnival' of 'Red-Meat Throwers,' But Liberal Netroots
Ken Shepherd
Today marks the opening of the 38th annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Regardless of where you may stand on internal debates about some of this year's co-sponsors, there's no denying that for nearly four decades its been an enduring legacy of conservative political activism. But to liberal journalists like Time's Adam Sorensen, CPAC is casually dismissed as a "three-day…


Rogue One's biggest pitfall (although not really a pitfall) was failing to flesh out all the intricacies between the characters. We never see a developed friendship (and even budding romance) between Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor nor did we see any inkling of the past adventures between Cassian and K-2S0. Luckily for us, Marvel will be releasing a canon story about how these two rebels met before the events of "Rogue One".
Marvel's Star Wars: Rogue One – Cassian & K-2SO Special #1 will be written by Duane Swierczynski with interior artwork by Fernando Blanco. The comic book will not only explore the relationship between the Rebel Intelligence officer played on the big screen by Diego Luna and the reprogrammed Imperial enforcer voiced by Alan Tudyk.
Star Wars: Rogue One – Cassian & K-2SO Special # 1 will ship out this August.

Sometimes the best way to get a feel for a broadband provider is to read what those who are already customers think of the service they're receiving. Below are all the reviews we've received for John Lewis Broadband.
Ratings league tables See which providers rate better than John Lewis.
No customer service staff have no upper management for you to escalate any problems Plusnet advertising customer service won't let you down!
Problems are just repeated 48 hours before update 48 hours for next update 3 weeks still awaiting for it to work!!!!!
We switched from Talktalk 5 months ago to save £10/month. We can no loger watch BBC iPlayer without it pausing frequently to load. Web pages load slowly. Even listening to internet radio such as via BBC iPlayer radio doesn't work properly. It keeps dropping out. It is supposed to be a minimum guaranteed speed of 3mbps yet I can't even stream radio reliably! Online speed test websites say I'm getting a decent speed but actual usage is terrible. This was never a problem with our previous provider TalkTalk.
The online help says I have to try a different router. Fantastic! I'll spend my evening configuring my old TalkTalk router and see if that works. Thannks a lot John Lewis broadband. We've paid you £120 so far for dial-up quality internet connection. Complete rip-off and wasted loads of time reloading pages, missing radio and tv programs and now messing around with router configuration like it's 2001.
Please save yourself a lot of hassle and DON'T sign up with these amateurs. I have never been with a telephone company that has been so stressful to deal with ever right from the very beginning and until know (5 months later). It's like you call them and they say they are doing this and that on the call when in fact they aren't doing anything. There seems to be no upper level of management that you can escalate things to either on the telephone or by email, so you just end up having to get angry at the customer service rep who can't do anything for you anyway. Join them and you will see what I mean when it all goes wrong, which there is a likelihood that it will. For me unfortunately my next move is OFCOM as the head office can't seem to solve my latest problem which is being automatically overcharged every month for mobile phone calls which were part of my original call plan 5 months ago and so far they have been unable to refund the extra £50-60 each month I'm being overcharged by. Jokers!
Nothing but contempt for this company. So very helpful staff. Only been with them since 09/2017 and had nothing but hassle from day one. Connection is a big joke if you can connected at all? Its costing my Wife and I to break the contract £130:40 which we cant afford but what can one do? A decent service we need not keeping fingers crossed and praying when logging on. Back to the drawing board but who is a decent helpful company??
Under no circumstances give this compnay your business but PLus Net their server is a part of BT.
I give zero stars for all catogories i clicked Customer services in error.
Don't waste your time with this company. Failed to supply Internet and so far its been 2 months trying to get our initial payment refunded. Customer service lie to get you off the phone and hang up on you if they can't be bothered with you.
So disappointed, customer support seem to be trying, 9 queries logged now, no action taken, their website is not fit for purpose, only shows grey page when looking for itemised landline calls, they have to send me hard copy of same before I'm prepared to pay them, cancelled my 12 month contract with them(what a performance!),so disappointed.
I was paying premium price with BT broadband and thier broadband was poor. I decide to join John Lewis Broadbad as I can honestly say their broadband is so much better than BT. I also saved more than £10 a month. Highly Recommend to family and friends.
