Monaco will always be prosperous so long as there are 3,000 rich men in the world.
Rainier Louis Henri Maxence Bertrand Grimaldi (31 May 1923 – 6 April 2005) ruled the Principality of Monaco for almost 56 years, making him one of the longest ruling monarchs in European history. Though internationally known due to his marriage to the American actress Grace Kelly, he was also responsible for reforms to Monaco's constitution and for expanding the principality's economy beyond its traditional casino gambling base. Gambling accounts for only approximately three percent of the nation's annual revenue today; when Rainier ascended the throne in 1949, it accounted for more than 95 percent.
I am like the head of a company.
He once said of his role in transforming Monaco.
She was always present and ready to do things either with me or for me if I couldn't do them, Let's say the change is that we worked as a team and the team has been split up.
Rainier said of his late wife in a 1983 interview.
The miracle that after 700 years the family is still there shows that there's been unity between my family and the population.

"You got a new car? That's pretty good!"

How Law and Stigma Harm People Who Do Sex Work
Presented by: Representatives from Butterfly, Maggie's and Safe Space
Description: In this online panel discussion, representatives from Maggie's Toronto, SafeSpace London, and Butterfly will explore how the stigma, marginalization and criminalization associated with sex work impacts the health and personal safety of people who do sex work. In addition to how allies can best support people who do sex work.
Butterfly was formed by sex workers, social workers, legal and health professionals. It provides support to, and advocates for, the rights of Asian and migrant sex workers. The organization is founded upon the belief that sex workers are entitled to respect and basic human rights. Butterfly asserts that, regardless of their immigration status, Asian and migrant sex workers should be treated like all other workers.

Maggie's: The Toronto Sex Workers Action Project is an organization run for and by local sex workers. Our mission is to assist sex workers in our efforts to live and work with safety and dignity. We are founded on the belief that in order to improve our circumstances, sex workers must control our own lives and destinies.

SafeSpace is a volunteer run NFP support centre for sex workers, allies and women/non binary folks in crisis located 96 Rectory. Our model is one of empowerment with the goal of meeting women where they are at and helping sex workers operate with safety and dignity.

Sorry for my absence this past couple of weeks, real life got in the way. I'll be updating the first post tomorrow (September 3) evening (my time) with the last two weeks of updates.

New arrangement of Fortress Boss (Super Mario Bros. 3).
By the way, I hope you all already listened to the song in Bowser's character video. Both of them make me hope he still gets a well deserved stage.
Post by Shrikeswind on Nov 4, 2018 20:54:21 GMT -5
Hey, so I know it's been a while since I've been on, and by extension updated this thread. Life gets in the way a fair bit, so I haven't had time to say anything. Don't think I forgot about the updates to the Dojo, though - I did see that Isabelle is in the game, as well as Incineroar. Opinion piece: I don't know what to make of Isabelle since I'm not much of an Animal Crossing fan, but for Incineroar, I'm a bit nettled that they went for him. Decidueye is better. But I think all of that is made up for with character 70. For those of you who knew me since I joined Smash Bros. Online, I think we all know where I'm going with this. A generic Mario enemy, and a flower pot. Piranha Plant has opened the gates, people, and I think I'm justified in suggesting what I'm about to suggest. Wiggler and Diglett for Smash 5. I will be vindicated!
[/humor]
Jokes notwithstanding, I do feel a certain attachment to the playable Piranha Plant. Out of left field? Sure. But it's exactly doofy enough for my taste and, joke notwithstanding, I do feel a certain sense of...I guess the best description would be a nostalgic vindication? Like a kid who learned that dragons don't exist years before discovering the magic that is dinosaurs, or that unicorns aren't real, but then learns that rhinos are related to horses so haha, no, unicorns totally exist and they're even cooler than you thought because they're actually rhinos. I'm gonna main it.

Hah, both me and Johans immediately thought of your take on Diglett when we saw a potted plant was going to be playable in Smash.
Sakurai really did read SBO, it seems. I even got my carbon copy of Samus, Dark Samus.

SBO was one hell of a place. Even that roster had tons of FE characters.
Post by Manspeed on Nov 7, 2018 20:14:28 GMT -5
The hell is Smash Bros. Online?
Yeah Spirits were announced there, and they mean EVERYONE IS HERE!
On the weekend Sakurai showed off some special battles at an event in Japan. He showed a battle against Tatanga from Super Mario Land, which was essentially a battle against Morton with Superscopes spawned by default on the Galaxy stage. It's not a whole lot, but I appreciate the effort.

Q: Mint map number keys to higlight text I have a standard PS2 keyboard hooked up to my Mint linux box.  When I try shift + the arrow keys on the number pad, I just get the numbers typed in.  However I want it to work the same as on my Windows box.  How do I map the arrow keys to highlight using the arrow keys 4,8,2,6 ?

A: I'm not sure where exactly it is in Mint, but the "Keyboard Layouts" settings panel should have an "Options..." button, which has related settings in it:

*

*Miscellaneous compatibility options

*

*Shift with numeric keypad keys works as in MS Windows (numpad:microsoft)

The same options can be set via setxkbmap -option "numpad:microsoft", for example, although this method is only temporary.

Sometimes we experience negative symptoms we can't explain and rush to attribute them to the obvious culprits – poor diet, stress, or lack of sleep – in order to justify them in our minds and get on with life. But sometimes, the reason you feel a certain way isn't so obvious and easy to treat. When it comes to iron deficiency, the symptoms can easily be mistaken for something else. Do you ever feel tired for no reason? Is your skin paler than usual and you don't know why? Do your legs often get a strange tingling feeling? If so, you may just be lacking iron. Learn what iron deficiency anemia symptoms look and feel like and why you should be more cautious of this crucial mineral.
Iron can be found in all of the body's cells and carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. It also assists muscles in storing and using oxygen and contributes to the transmission of nerve impulses. Most people get all the iron they need from the foods they eat. However, this is not always the case.
Iron deficiency anemia occurs when the body isn't absorbing enough iron into its system, leading to a fall in the production of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin makes up red blood cells and gives blood its red color. It also enables red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout the body.
Iron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional disorder, affecting some 20-25 percent of the world's population, especially pregnant women and children. While iron deficiency anemia is more common in developing countries, the United States is no stranger to the phenomenon.
In 2011, nearly 240,000 emergency department visits in the United States resulted in an anemia diagnosis. In 2013, deaths attributed to anemia hit just under 4,900. Iron deficiency anemia is common enough that the United States Department of Health and Human Services has given itself the goal to reduce iron deficiency by 10 percent by 2020.
Many people with iron deficiency anemia aren't necessarily experiencing serious symptoms and thus don't get treated or try to change their lifestyles. However, even subtle reactions to a lack of adequate iron in the body can make the difference in energy levels, mood, and overall well being. Learn the symptoms to protect yourself.
If you experience the following, you may be deficient in iron.
If you experience any of these iron deficiency symptoms, talk to your doctor and get checked to see if you are lacking in the mineral.
People with a higher risk for developing iron deficiency anemia include women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, infants, women and girls who are menstruating, men and women who engage in regular intense exercise, men and women on dialysis, children and adults with ADHD, and those who take iron-depleting medications.
Treating iron deficiency anemia usually comes down to an iron-rich diet or iron supplementation. Foods rich in iron include red meat, pork, poultry, seafood, beans, dark green leafy vegetables, dried fruit, iron-fortified cereals, and peas. You should also choose foods containing vitamin C to enhance iron absorption. Foods rich in vitamin C include broccoli, grapefruit, kiwi, leafy greens, melons, oranges, peppers, strawberries, tangerines, and tomatoes.
Supplementation may be necessary for some people and you should consult your doctor before adding new supplement pills to your diet. To get the most benefit from iron supplement pills, take them with orange juice. The vitamin C in the orange juice will help the body to absorb the iron more efficiently.

Google details its approach to cloud-native security
Frederic Lardinois
Over the years, Google's various whitepapers, detailing how the company solves specific problems at scale, have regularly spawned new startup ecosystems and changed how other enterprises think about scaling their own tools. Today, the company is publishing a new security whitepaper that details how it keeps its cloud-native architecture safe.
The name, BeyondProd, already indicates that this is an extension of the BeyondCorp zero trust system the company first introduced a few years ago. While BeyondCorp is about shifting security away from VPNs and firewalls on the perimeter to the individual users and devices, BeyondProd focuses on Google's zero trust approach to how it connects machines, workloads and services.
Unsurprisingly, BeyondProd is based on pretty much the same principles as BeyondCorp, including network protection at the end, no mutual trust between services, trusted machines running known code, automated and standardized change rollout and isolated workloads. All of this, of course, focuses on securing cloud-native applications that generally communicate over APIs and run on modern infrastructure.
"Altogether, these controls mean that containers and the microservices running inside can be deployed, communicate with each other, and run next to each other, securely; without burdening individual microservice developers with the security and implementation details of the underlying infrastructure," Google explains.
Google, of course, notes that it is making all of these features available to developers through its own services like GKE and Anthos, its hybrid cloud platform. In addition, though, the company also stresses that a lot of its open-source tools also allow enterprises to build systems that adhere to the same platforms, including the likes of Envoy, Istio, gVisor and others.
"In the same way that BeyondCorp helped us to evolve beyond a perimeter-based security model, BeyondProd represents a similar leap forward in our approach to production security," Google says. "By applying the security principles in the BeyondProd model to your own cloud-native infrastructure, you can benefit from our experience, to strengthen the deployment of your workloads, how your their communications are secured, and how they affect other workloads."
You can read the full whitepaper here.

In the Middle Ages, Armenian women had a legal right to divorce: this was fixed in Mkhitar Gosh's «Lawcode». The history, however, knows no woman who has ever used this right. Wives knew well enough that once divorced, they would have nowhere to go. Intrigued by this revealing story, I went to the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography of National Academy of Science to find out why the state rules in Armenia are usually weaker than customs and traditions.
When Armenia's first lady Rita Sargsyan was asked whether she helps her husband with advice, she was quick to reject, noting that she does not like those wives who advice their husbands, and, moreover, she would never have respect for those men who listen to their wives. As surprising and disagreeable as it sounds for a representative of a generation of multicultural millennials, I must acknowledge that it is not accidental that Rita Sargsyan is the kind of a first lady that she is.
Armenian society has always been patriarchal. 19th-century Armenian writers Srpouhi Dussap and Zabel Yesayan were creating the first Armenian feminist literature and were actively participating in public life of Ottoman Empire where they lived. At the same time women in towns and villages lived by strict standards: first as a victimized newlywed, then as a mother-in-law with her own victim, and finally as the absolute authority of the house, who was forced to obey only every single man around. Being illiterate, what possible access could they have to Dussap's and Yesayan's liberal ideas?
In 1920s, the Soviet Union introduced the new rules which included literacy for women, equality and participation in social life, but they did this without caring about the other side's convenience or opinion. "Generally speaking, Bolsheviks forced women to go to school, to do men's work, to be visible in the public sphere," says ethnologist Svetlana Poghosyan, "But this was not easy for women. First, they had to do twice as much work as men, since they already had a full-time housework that wasn't going anywhere. Then, they were told to take off the headscarf, cut their hair short and go to the streets, when for their entire life these things had been considered a big shame." During World War II, the Soviet government even developed images of hard-working heroic women coping on their own who were meant to be role models for everyone else. These were not the new women, but the women who were masculine and, therefore, strong.
Svetlana Poghosyan notes that at the end of the day the innovations resulted in women's presence and activeness in life outside of their houses, which were once their entire world. Of course, the activeness was never connected to important leadership positions as the glass ceiling was – and is – always there.
Education is a proven method to break the stereotypes in society, but its potential changemaking power does not seem to be used to build equality in Armenia. Ruzanna Tsaturyan recalled the story of a section in elementary school textbook which Armenian and international education specialists had created to show the kids that gender roles are taught rather than inherited. This initiative was called off because of a complaint from a conservative activist, Khachik Stamboltsyan. "This man does not represent any institutional power, he is basically one citizen whose complaint was used to explain the government's unwillingness to work for gender equality," says Ruzanna Tsaturyan. Almost the same happened to the domestic violence law just last year, which was eventually edited before passing.

(CNN) — Tourism authorities in Beijing said they are considering creating a blacklist of "uncivilized visitors" in order to curb bad behavior by visitors, as the city is inundated with tourists for Tomb Sweeping Festival.
According to state media, officials at the Beijing Municipal Administration Center of Parks said that the upsurge in domestic tourists visiting the Chinese capital for the three-day holiday, also known as Qingming Festival, had coincided with "uncivilized tourist behavior," including climbing peach trees, picking flowers, damaging plants, fishing in park lakes, and selling things illegally within the city's parks.
A blacklist would block "loutish travelers" from visiting the city's parks, using facial recognition software and other surveillance technology to monitor guests and keep out those with a record of bad behavior.
In 2017, Beijing's Temple of Heaven Park installed face scanners in its toilets to prevent what officials said was an epidemic of toilet paper theft. Those needing paper had to make eye contact with a machine before it spit out a single portion — anyone needing more than the provided amount would need to wait 9 minutes.
Chinese tourists made more than 112 million domestic trips during this year's Tomb Sweeping Festival, a 10.9% increase on last year, according to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Beijing alone saw more than 700,000 people visiting some dozen parks around the city.
Such blacklists are seen as a precursor to a proposed countrywide "social credit system," which would be used to monitor and police a huge range of behavior. People with poor social credit scores could be prevented from traveling, struggle to apply for loans, or banned from taking part in some businesses.
Human Rights Watch has described the proposed system as "dystopian," and warned it could have major ramifications for privacy.

In news that I couldnt have been happier to hear, John Calipari and UK will partner up with WKYT-TV for a Telethon to raise funds for Haitian Earthquake Relief. It will begin at noon on Sunday and will include Calipari, Joe B Hall, former players, television personalities and the current UK players to the extent they can be involved. Plus there will be other coaches from around the country calling in and special guests throughout. The telethon will be 4 and 1/2 hours long, with the first hour and a half on television. We hope to have more to announce on the subject soon, so stay tuned throughout the weekend.
Great decision by Calipari and UK and another reason I am proud to be Blue.

The Green Slot Floor
How casinos and manufacturers are beginning to change the energy equation on the gaming floor
A casino's hundreds, or in some cases thousands, of gaming machines running 24/7 with flashing lights and bells and whistles, might seem like a daunting challenge to those seeking a greener slot floor.
But not to Eric Hansel, president of EGM Green, which builds sustainable table games and also offers green consulting services.
"A green slot floor is absolutely plausible and it will happen within the next three years in the larger more progressive casinos and will be scaled down through smaller casinos as they catch the wave," said Hansel, whose company is based in New Jersey.
"Not only will the end machines be more eco-friendly, but the machines' supply chain will be more sustainable," he predicted.
Already, he noted, casinos are working to make their slot floors and gaming machines more efficient. "We're already seeing people doing lighting retrofits for casinos," as well as replacing CRT screens with more efficient LCD screens, Hansel noted.
And manufacturers, such as IGT, Atronic/Spielo, Aristocrat, Bally and others, are focusing on ways to make their products more energy efficient and green.
Hansel is leading the Sustainable Gaming Standard Committee, which is pushing for the first-ever complete and open source ANSI (American National Standards Institute) Standard for the development of sustainable video gaming machines.
"Within five years, we want slot machines to be 50 percent more efficient that they are right now, so if your casino floor costs you $100,000 a month to operate, it'll then cost you $50,000," Hansel said.
As server-based gaming becomes more of a reality, Hansel said, "I think the estimates we came up with for cutting power consumption will get blown away."
Server-based gaming is a total game changer, he said.
"It improves the efficiency of the casino floor that much more so you don't have people running from place to place looking for their favorite game. Their favorite game is where they are."
Atronic/Spielo green strides are part of a corporatewide green initiative. It also sponsored the green bag for attendees at the 2009 Global Gaming Expo, which it highlighted in this advertisement.
Sprouting interest
Hansel noted that he's seen interest grow in the gaming industry over the past three years he's attended the Global Gaming Expo.
"There was a whole new group of green-facing folks at [the 2009] G2E," he said, including computer board manufacturers, and lighting, air quality and water management companies.
Hansel pointed to examples such as IGT, Harrah's, MGM Mirage and Barona Resort & Casino as operators making significant strides in the green space.
Chuck Hickey, vice president of slot operations for Barona, said Barona has been very forward-thinking and proactive in this arena.
"Barona is very well known for its green efforts. We're always looking at ways to be green," he said.
Barona has been recognized locally and nationally for its green efforts, which include water-treatment and recycling programs, its water-efficient golf course landscaping, property-wide recycling programs and energy efficiency measures.
Had it not been for the recession's onslaught last year, Barona's efforts to replace the slot floor's CRTs with LCDs would have progressed more, as well as efforts to explore more efficient lighting, Hickey noted. "We are looking at it," he said. "Our facilities people are supposed to be doing a bake-off with lighting suppliers soon."
Among the manufacturers making strides in the sustainability arena is Atronic and Spielo, wholly owned subsidiaries of GTECH, which is owned by Lottomattica.
It's an area where the companies and the corporate leadership is putting a lot of emphasis, said Ken Bossingham, chief operating officer of Las Vegas-based Atronic Americas.
"It's something that we believe really needs to become a core fabric of our business," Bossingham said.
There's an overall green initiative corporate plan, he noted.
"We have a product specification document we use as we build new product," Bossingham said. "Green is also a gate that has to be considered when we're building the overall scope of what a new product is going to be. We have to be able to tell within that product what green steps we're taking," he explained.
Generally, he noted, "If there's a way to incorporate a green initiative into that product, we're taking that step."
In terms of helping slot operations run more energy-efficient operations, the new prodiGi Vu terminal embraces environmentally responsible design and production, emitting It 27 percent less heat than the previous AURA cabinet, reducing cooling costs in venues. It also produces 27 percent less energy than the AURA, reducing venue energy consumption costs. It's also 21 percent lighter than the AURA, which reduces fuel consumption during shipping.
Casino operators will benefit from these measures, Bossingham said.
"The efforts that we're taking we think there are going to be advantageous to the operators," Bossingham said, noting the prodiGi Vu terminal's efficiency as an example.
"That's going to offer the operator huge energy savings," he said.
In addition, the new cabinet is 100 percent RoHS and WEEE compliant, has energy efficient buttons and service lighting, and was designed without fluorescent or incandescent lighting. All software and games are updated through memory card and Flash downloading, reducing waste and travel for service calls.
Atronic and Spielo also were official "Green2E" sponsors for the 2009 G2E. Corporate logos were on the event guide, show Web site, show map and on all cardboard enclosures for trash cans and recycling bins located throughout the convention center. The sponsorship also supported at least one conference session focusing on energy efficient and green practices in casino management.
Atronic/Spielo also were the show's exclusive bag sponsors, which for the first time were reusable shopping bags with a design bearing the slogan, "Our view has never been greener."
The efforts on all fronts demonstrate the senior leadership's commitment to green initiatives, Bossingham said.
"I think if you look across operators, everybody's program is probably at different stages of implementation," he said. "We have to do a good job as an organization helping our customers understand these benefits. We have to do a better job of putting this more in quantifiable dollar terms in as far as the advantages."
IGT is among the other manufacturers that are proactive in its recycling and energy saving efforts.
IGT facilities annually recycle millions of pieces of cardboard, metal, paper and glass, as well as aluminum cans, plastic bottles, printer cartridges, wire harnesses, pallets and fluorescent light bulbs, according to its Web site. While IGT does not generate a large amount of hazardous waste, small quantities of inks and solvents are recycled by an outside disposal company.
IGT also has steadily reduced the amount of energy consumed in its daily operations. A major example was a recent lighting retrofit that replaced more than 5,000 antiquated light fixtures and reduced energy consumption by 3.4 megawatt hours a year. Energy savings have also been realized through installation of lighting occupancy sensors and "as needed" use of service and electrical equipment instead of around-the-clock operation.
In compliance with the European Union (EU) Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) In compliance with the European Union (EU) Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive of 2006, IGT began manufacturing RoHS-compliant machines for European distribution. Although not required to do so, IGT now includes many of the parts that meet or exceed the RoHS standards in machines manufactured for the United States and countries outside the EU.
n addition to Barona, many other casino operators are taking strong environmental measures, including Harrah's Entertainment with its Code Green program across its properties.
CityCenter is one of the world's largest sustainable projects to date. Among its green highlights are the ARIA hotel-casino slot bases, which serve as floor air-conditioning units, efficiently cooling guests from the ground up, rather than wasting energy on empty space by cooling from the ceiling down.
CityCenter is taking green to a whole new level in the gaming industry, as it is regarded as one of the world's largest sustainable developments, from design and construction to operations and guest amenities.
On the slot floor at ARIA casino-resort, gaming machine bases serve as floor air-conditioning units, efficiently cooling guests from the ground up, rather than wasting energy on empty space by cooling from the ceiling.
The 18-million-square-foot development on the Las Vegas Strip is set to achieve a combination of gold and silver LEED ratings by the U.S. Green Building Council throughout its hotels; residences; dining, retail and public spaces.
Due to its size and purchasing power, CityCenter is driving green economies of scale in multiple industry segments, paving the way for other entities to build and operate sustainably, according to a news release.
"Designing CityCenter with sustainable elements and practices reinforces its permanence and creates a healthier environment for our guests and residents, as well as for the 12,000 people who ultimately will work at CityCenter," said Jim Murren, chairman and CEO of MGM Mirage, which is partnering with Infinite World, a subsidiary of Dubai World on CityCenter.
CityCenter has moved beyond existing green practices to empower industry-wide innovations. Key highlights include energy generation on The Strip through an 8.5 megawatt natural-gas co-generation plant, providing efficient electricity on site, reducing emissions and using "waste heat" to provide domestic hot water; and water conservation technology and programs that will save between 30 percent and 43 percent of water within the buildings and 60 percent in outdoor landscaping. CityCenter also features the first-ever fleet of stretch limos powered by clean-burning compressed natural gas. In addition, the project features technologically advanced hotel rooms with exclusive features allowing guests to "green their stay;" energy efficiency initiatives providing a savings equivalent to powering 8,800 households annually; and a large-scale recycling operation that enabled the recycling or reuse of more than 260,000 tons of construction waste, including 97 percent of the imploded Boardwalk Hotel.

The Towers is one of the new Guilds created by the schism of the College, named after the Eight Towers that form its new headquarters. Two of the Towers, that of Darkness and Spellswords, stand empty as no one has stepped forward to teach these Schools. The Towers of Earth, Air, Fire, Water, General and Light are occupied, with organised curricula to teach those who wish to learn.
The Tower of Darkness and Tower of the Spellswords are never expected to be filled. That the Towers Guild has made provision for these Schools to join them is more of an indication of their world view. Members of the Towers believe that the study of magic is the most important goal that anyone can have, and secondary considerations (such as the Shadow Master goal of seeking to take over the world and the Spellswords dedication to protecting Elves) are completely unimportant.
Members of the Towers believe that only through specializing on one aspect of magic can a Mage truly learn its deepest secrets. Each member focuses his efforts on mastering one School, largely ignoring the others. However, each member also acknowledges that the magic of the other Schools is equally as important to the whole.
Members of the Towers and members of the Circle both agree that all Schools of magic are equal, but they disagree on the method of pursuing the study of the deeper mysteries.
Kingdom: Arch Geomancer Theo. The Guildmaster is elected from the Masters of the Towers every 5 years.
Barony Van Heusen:
Arch Metamancer Lee
Arch Geomancer Sandstone
Arch Pyromancer Inferno
Arch Hydromancer Monsoon
A starting character can join the guild immediately.
A non-starting character can join the guild immediately. Membership is open to all who qualify and who wish to learn about magic.
A member of the Towers must
always help another member of the Towers if he is in trouble.
specialize on learning spells and ritual magic from his base School.
A Tower Mage only has automatic access to spells from his own School. In order to learn spells from a different School, he must petition both the Master of his own Tower and the Master of the Tower for the different School. Only if both agree will he be taught the spell.
The Player must ask the Character Ref whether his character can learn the spell, giving details of all his current spells.
The total spell levels for a Tower Mage's School must be at least three times the total spell levels of all the other Schools combined. When calculating the total spell levels in a School, the amount added to the sum for each spell is equal to its level + 1.
For example, a Tower Fire Mage who has
4 Level 0 Fire spells
1 Level 3 Fire spell
has a total spell level of
(4 × 1) + (2 × 2) + (2 × 3) + (1 × 4) + (1 × 5) = 23
Thus he can have a maximum total of 7 spell levels in all the other Schools he can cast from.
The total ritual levels for a Tower Mage's School must be at least three times the total ritual levels of all the other Schools combined.
For example, a Tower Fire Mage with:
Magic Ritual (Fire) 0
Could have up to 2 ritual levels in other school(s)
e.g. Magical Ritual (Earth) 0 and Magical Ritual (Earth) 1
or Magical Ritual (Earth) 0 and Magical Ritual (General) 0 etc.
A member of the Towers has access to
Spells and Magic Ritual in the School of Air/Earth/Fire/General/Light/Water to any level (his primary school only).
Enchant Item in the School of Air/Earth/Fire/General/Light/Water to any level (his primary school only).
Magic Adepts in the School of Air/Earth/Fire/General/Light/Water (his primary school only).
A member of the Towers gains the following bonuses.
[LOSE] He may use the title <x> up to Guild Rank 20, High <x> up to Guild Rank 50 and Arch <x> above Guild Rank 50. Where <x> is based on their Primary School e.g. Metamancer, Pyromancer etc. (see Magic section).
[KEEP BOUGHT] He can learn spells from his own School as if they were one level less. Level 0 spells are at half cost.
[KEEP BOUGHT] He may learn Magic Ritual Level 0 for his own School at half cost.
[KEEP RESTRICTED] At Guild Rank 20, the Tower Mage can choose to specialise in a particular spell chain (which includes the mass versions of the spell) for his primary school, provided that he knows all the spells in the chain up to Level 4 (he can delay this bonus, until this criteria is met). Due to his improved knowledge, he can optionally cast the spell as if it was one level higher. Thus, a Fire Mage who has specialised in Flame Blade can cast a Flame Blade 0 as a Flame Blade 1.
This ability can take the spell effect above the Level 10 boundary, so a specialised Flame Blade 10 would act as a Flame Blade 11, even though such a spell is normally not possible without a ritual. When specialising in a spell chain that is not continuous, such as the Earth spell Strength, the extra level will not have any real effect.
The total spell levels for a Tower Mage's School must be at least three times the total spell levels of all the other Schools combined.
[KEEP RESTRICTED] At Guild Rank 50, the Tower Mage can master his specialised spell chain, provided that he knows all the spells in the chain to level 8 (he can delay this bonus, until this criteria is met). Due to his superior knowledge, he can optionally cast the spell as if it was two levels higher. Thus, a Fire Mage who has mastered Flame Blade can cast a Flame Blade 0 as a Flame Blade 2.
This ability can take the spell effect above the Level 10 boundary, so a mastered Flame Blade 10 would act as a Flame Blade 12, even though such a spell is normally not possible without a ritual. When mastering a spell chain that is not continuous, the extra two levels may not have any real effect. However, if the gaps are only one level, such as for the Earth spell Strength, the mastered spell will be cast at the next highest effect.

Top 10: Game Grumps One-Offs (Jon Era)
So as a preface to the actual list I've gone ahead and compiled some information about the Game Grumps, specifically information relevant to Jon Jafari's tenure on the show. I do, however, understand that you may already know all the information, or simply would prefer to skip it. So you can click here if you'd like to go straight to the list or just keep reading to find out more about the Game Grumps. Either way. Enjoy!
Game Grumps is an American Let's Play channel which was established back on July 18th 2012 by co-hosts and co-founders Arin Hanson (also known as Egoraptor) and Jon Jafari (also known as JonTron). Arin had already built up a considerable fanbase prior to Game Grumps due to his animations which were posted to Newgrounds and his personal YouTube Channel and when Jon came to his attention following his video DinoCity BRO!!! (which features his first attempt to sing Firework by Katy Perry, which I eventually reviewed) and that videos subsequent posting to Reddit they became friends and eventually decided to collaborate.
The actual concept for Game Grumps as well as the name of the show and the roles of 'Grump' and 'Not So Grump' they play on it were inspired by an incident where Jon and Arin were playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl and arguing over whether the character Wolf was a clone of Fox, because their fighting styles were too similar. A friend of theirs told them they have a tendency to get a little 'grumpy' with one another while playing games, and said that they should make a show where they should talk it out, Arin concieved of a podcast called Game Grumps, the idea for which eventually evolved into the show as we know it. As mentioned above Arin and Jon play specific roles on the show, with Arin playing the role of 'Grump' and Jon playing the role of 'Not So Grump'. Together the pair hosted the channel, with vital behind the scenes support from their editor Barry Kramer (also known as razzadoop) until Jon left on June 25th 2013 to focus on his own personal channel.
Speaking of which, if you are a fan of JonTron, you can check out a Top 10 list I did for his best episodes by clicking here and here.
Following Jon's departure from the show he was replaced by Dan Avidan (also known as Danny Sexbang) the lead vocalist of the comedy musical duo, Ninja Sex Party, who took over his role as 'Not So Grump'.
Interestingly enough, Dan joining the channel had already been in the works prior to Jon leaving, as he was set to be the co-host of another series scheduled to appear on the Game Grumps channel called Steam Train, which would feature himself alongside Animator and voice actor Ross O'Donovan (also known as RubberRoss, RubberNinja or CondomRoss) where they would both play PC games (as opposed to console games, which were more common on Game Grumps at the time) many of which were available on Valve's Steam platform (for which the show was named) in a similar format to the original Game Grumps set up. However due to the sudden nature of Jon's withdrawal from the show, and also because Arin had apparently said previously that Dan would have always been his second choice for a co-host for Game Grumps if Jon were unavailable he ended up taking the co-host role on both shows.
Jon Era One-Offs
1. Mary-Kate & Ashley: Sweet 16 – Licensed to Drive
So this is easily my favourite episode from the Jon Era of Game Grumps, and I think the reason for that is that it is just hilarious. I mean the game itself is fairly uninteresting, and yet Arin and Jon really manage to make something special from it. Some memorable highlights include Arin explaining the origins of 'Wumbo' from Spongebob Squarepants, and Arin and Jon's over the top impressions of Mary-Kate and Ashley.
2. GoldenEye 007
So at least part of the reason why I like this playthrough is because I love this game, not only does it hold up surprisingly well but it gives me such Nostalgia. That being said, for an episode that I love so much, Arin and Jon sure do talk about genocide a whole lot. Despite the sensitive subject material I think it works really well because it is very stream of consciousness and feels like two friends just sitting on a couch playing games which at least to me is the main reason why people like Game Grumps so much. I also liked Arin's rant about how terrible this fame is which firmly cements him as the official 'Grump' of the duo.
3. Chuck E. Cheese's Party Games
So beyond what I've been able to glean from American TV and Film I don't really know much about Chuck E. Cheese but I will say it looks like awesome fun. This specific playthrough is not only one of my favourites but it's also one of the first one-offs, in fact I think it might be the second one ever. Because of this you can still feel them developing the show and hammering out their dynamic as hosts. That being said, I feel that you can already detect them becoming less nervous and really settling into their roles as The Grumps. My personal highlight from this episode was Arin's story about how Chuck E. Cheese, the anthropomorphic rat mascot of the Chuck E. Cheese chain of family entertainment centres, took one of his skee-balls, tried to make a shot and missed, then just walked off without saying anything.
4. Spice World
So the chemistry between the two hosts is a very important aspect of what makes Game Grumps so important but an equally important part is the absolute confusion and incredulity that some games can inspire. Spice World is just such a game, because the mechanics are so convoluted and boring that Jon and Arin just end up making their own fun rather than playing the game properly. That being said, they do make a valiant effort to play this game, for example when they first enter the 'mixing room' they make the fairly natural assumption that they are supposed to assemble one of the Spice Girls songs using the mechanics available and they really do their best but alas they were unsuccessful and ended up having to read the manual to have any idea what to do. Overall this game was so bad that Arin 'killed' Jon at the end of the episode, presumably because he was too beautiful to live in a world where this game exists.
5. Battletoads
I usually watch Game Grumps because it has a nice, chill vibe to it, even during extreme moments like the Sonic 06 playthrough it's more about the banter than anything else but sometimes it's good to just enjoy a little bit of negativity and this episode sure had that. Arin and Jon both voice their displeasure at this game, in particular its notorious difficulty. Other highlights include the first mention of Barry Kramer (as their editor) and Jon opera singing towards the end of the video.
6. Drakkhen
This is a strong favourite not just for me but also for the lovelies as well, so much so that a project was formed to animate this episode in its entirety, which you can check out here if you are interested. For me at least, I liked this episode because it was just silly. Due to the text being entirely in Japanese they just had fun making up their own plot.
7. A Bug's Life
So A Bug's Life is easily still one of my favourite Pixar movies and I remember playing this as a kid on the PS1 and being determined to unlock the real movie scenes in the game. I will add that this is only my second favourite game based on the lives of bugs. The number one slot is taken by Bugdom, a platformer released in 1999 alongside Nanosaur, both of which came pre-installed on all of iMac's (or iMac G3's) at my primary school. Anyway, returning to the episode, it's another fun one. Arin and Jon had a discussion about gravity, and end the episode unable to agree on who is correct. Also interestingly enough, and not to speculate, but this argument over the fundamental building blocks of the universe, was the last episode Jon filmed before leaving the show.
8. Rugrats in Paris: The Movie
So I remember playing this game a lot as a kid but I don't think I ever completed it, perhaps because it's impossible to complete. Either way, no amount of fond memories can make up for the fact it's not the greatest game in the world. Jon and Arin are not very forgiving of the flash either, in fact Arin 'killed' himself in this video. That being said, he seems to make a habit of this as he also killed himself in the episode Play with the Teletubbies.
9. Shovel Knight
So this was a solid one-off, and it's good to see The Grumps use their platform to support an indie game. Also Arin donated during the crowd funding stage and got his portrait put up in the Hall of Backers which is kind of cool. This is also one of a handful of games that made the leap from the Jon to Dan Era of the game.
10. Dead Space 3
So weirdly enough watching this was my first exposure to the Dead Space series, so for that alone this one-off could make this list but also it was interesting as well, I enjoyed listening to their commentary on how this game diverges from the others in the series. Plus the thing with the birds was hilarious. I wonder if this is how Jon got Jacques.
Honourable Mentions go to Mary-Kate and Ashley: Magical Mystery Mall, Paperboy 64 and Dog's Life which I also really enjoyed but didn't quite make the list.
So those were my Top 10 'Jon Era' Game Grumps One-Offs and if you want to maybe find some favourites of your own, you can head over to the main channel, Game Grumps.
Make sure and follow them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for the latest updates from Game Grumps. Don't forget to show support for JonTron by subscribing to his YouTube channel, and by following him on Twitter and Instagram.

Trafficking, debt bondage rampant in Thai fishing industry: study
Migrant fishermen from Burma clean equipment after returning from the ocean to Ban Nam Khem, Thailand, on 14 December 2014. (Photo: Reuters)
By THOMSON REUTERS FOUNDATION
More than a third of migrant fishermen in Thailand clearly were victims of trafficking over the past five years and even more workers in the industry were possibly trafficked as well, according to a report published on Thursday.
Routinely underpaid and physically abused, three-quarters of migrants working on Thai fishing vessels have been in debt bondage, working to pay off an obligation, said the study by the anti-trafficking group International Justice Mission (IJM).
Thailand's multibillion-dollar seafood sector came under fire in recent years after investigations showed widespread slavery, trafficking and violence on fishing boats and in onshore food processing factories.
The politically unstable country, which is under military rule, has vowed to crack down on trafficking and recently introduced reforms to its fisheries law.
The IJM study of 260 fishermen from Burma and Cambodia found 38 percent were clearly trafficked and another 49 percent possibly trafficked.
Only 13 percent reported fair labor conditions at sea and no exploitative recruitment, it said.
Three-quarters reported working at least 16 hours a day, and only 11 percent said they were paid more than 9,000 Baht ($272) per month, the legal monthly minimum wage in Thailand.
One fisherman was quoted in the report as saying he was held in debt bondage, owing 20,000 Baht ($604) to his brother, who worked as a supervisor overseeing fishermen.
"I fear for my life as he has killed in front of me before," he was quoted as saying. "I don't dare to run. He would kill my children.
Field researchers surveyed the 260 fishermen in 20 Thai fishing localities in 2016, collecting information on fishing jobs they had held in the previous five years.
Thailand, the world's third-largest seafood exporter, had more than 42,000 active fishing vessels as of 2014 and more than 172,000 people were employed as fishermen, the study said.
The study was funded by the Walmart Foundation, the charitable arm of giant US retailer Walmart Stores Inc.
With release of the study, the Walmart Foundation announced a grant to help the IJM improve law enforcement efforts against human trafficking in the Thai fishing industry. Neither Walmart nor the charity would specify the value of the grant.

Walmart spokeswoman Marilee McInnis told the Thomson Reuters Foundation by email that "combating forced labour remains a key challenge throughout the world."
"Regardless of where it occurs in the global supply chain, Walmart is committed to help eliminate forced labour through transparency and collaboration," she wrote.
Gary Haugen, the chief executive of IJM, said in a statement that "no person should have to live under the oppression or ownership of another."
"As consumers, we shouldn't have to wonder if the products we're purchasing are the result of violent injustice," he said.
