STRATFORD – Musical instruments displayed in the big front window and classic record album covers and 45 speed records mounted on the walls surrounding the dining room aren't exactly what one expects to see in a small-town, main street restaurant, but that's the way it is at Patsy's Place, the newest business in Stratford.
Oh, the building has long been a hometown restaurant, but now along with a full menu Patsy's Place offers up a good helping of music.
"The whole idea of this is the music," said owner Gil McNaughton. He named the new business for his wife, Patsy. Together, the couple has performed at numerous wineries around the state, with Patsy singing and Gil playing the bass. Last fall, the couple decided to look for a permanent place to share their music and came across the available restaurant in Stratford. After a small stage was added to the adjoining party room, the vision was a reality for the couple, who live in Roland.
Patsy's Place has been open for six weeks now, according to McNaughton.
Although he has never owned or operated a restaurant, McNaughton, who is retired, brings with him a long and varied background In music that started with piano lessons at age 3. As he got older, he added others instruments. In his 20s he was a chorus dancer mainly in summer stock theatre around the country. Framed photos on one wall of the restaurant picture him dancing on stage in productions with stars like Gene Kelly, Van Johnson, and Ginger Rogers.
"I even performed as Mickey Mouse at Disney," noted the Dallas native. "I was Minnie, too. It doesn't really matter who's inside the costume.
"The dance door closed in 2008, and the music door opened," he commented about his career path. After earning both a BFA and an MFA in dance and music history from Texas universities, he taught at Sam Houston State University there. Then the couple relocated to Iowa, where they raised their three children in the Cedar Rapids area while McNaughton taught at Coe College. There he formed a performing arts company and a dance school that he estimates had close to 400 students.
That would be during the Sunday brunch time, when Patsy's Place is open 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
"We started Sunday brunch recently, and that's going well," he said.
Other hours at the restaurant are 10:30 a.m.-8:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday and Friday 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturdays open 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. There is a full menu, including specials several evenings each week. Backcountry Winery wines, along with house wines and beer, are served at the restaurant.
"We've been very well received in Stratford," McNaughton said about what it's been like so far being a business owner. "It was the people here who made a difference, being so supportive and helpful. I'm enjoying this immensely.


Uganda Breweries Limited (UBL) has today commissioned and handed over 16 boreholes worth UGX 480M to over 4,800 beneficiaries in the sorghum farming communities in Agago, Amuru, Gulu and Nwoya districts in Acholi sub region, Northern Uganda. This is in addition to the 15 Boreholes commissioned in 2014.
The boreholes were handed over to the community leaders at Koro - Rom village in Amuru in response to the plight faced by those communities whose main water source dries up during the dry season.
While handing over the boreholes, UBL Finance Director - Busola Doregos said the water sources will change the community's life positively and improve their standards of living, stressing UBL's commitment to water, sanitation and environmental sustainability.
The Amuro district chairperson, Peter Douglas Okello tasked the communities to protect the water resources jealously and use the new boreholes to improve their livelihoods. ''These water sources are now yours. You must make sure that they effectively benefit our communities by keeping them clean and making sure they are repaired whenever they break down.'' Okello stressed.
On the same day, Uganda Breweries Limited (UBL) also announced that they will be offering 30 scholarships to young, academically talented but financially challenged students from the farming communities in Acholi sub region in Northern Uganda.
Under this project, Uganda Breweries will pay total fees of up to UGX 348,117,000 for the students to study from Daniel Comboni Vocational Institute and Kitgum Technical Institute. The sponsorship will entail payment of tuition for their second year of study, entrepreneurship training as well as seed capital for those that would have extremely excelled in the programme.
While announcing the sponsorship fund at the UBL offices in Gulu, UBL Finance Director, Busola Doregos expressed the company's commitment to continue giving back to the farming communities who provide raw materials for the brewery.
"Even though as a company we inject more than 24 billion shillings in these farming communities yearly, like most of us, these farmers have a challenge seeing their children go on to tertiary education due to high tuition and upkeep costs. We have therefore come in to support very deserving students in these communities who struggle to raise school fees." Doregos said.
The sponsorship will be managed and run on UBL's behalf by a technical expert, Enterprise Uganda, who will be in charge of the selection process based on merit from academic performance, aptitude and business plans. Enterprise Uganda is the right partner for this due to their vast experience in SME development, training and mentorship in entrepreneurship. Over the last 17 years, Uganda Breweries Skills for Life programme has awarded over 200 university scholarships across East Africa, with 40 of them from Uganda.
Uganda Breweries Limited (UBL) has today commissioned and handed over 16 boreholes worth UGX 480M to over 4,800 beneficiaries in the sorghum farming communities in Agago, Amuru, Gulu and Nwoya districts in Acholi sub region, Northern Uganda.

Rigid buffers used as end stops or to limit the stroke of moving parts give rise to high impact stresses to structures often causing visible deterioration .This is normally accompanied by unacceptably high noise levels to the human ear , particularly when these impacts are repeated periodically. Rubber buffers eliminate these drawbacks considerably, as they dampen noise and absorb energy . The simple buffer is a flat surface and therefore responds immediately to impact, without over-extending the stroke of the moving part. The progressive buffer has a conical form and therefore makes contact on a progressive basis , increasing deflection with increasing load. This action provides gradual arrest of moving parts, absorbing considerable energy, prohibiting instant high impact stresses.

SCOT Confirms the "No-direct-action" Rule Applies to Non-monetary Claims for Declaratory Relief
By Amy Stewart Law
In a per curiam opinion issued Friday, the Texas Supreme Court confirmed third-party plaintiffs do not have standing to assert claims for declaratory relief against a liability insurer before establishing the insurer's legal obligation to pay damages .
In In re Essex Insurance Company, the Court granted Essex's request for mandamus relief after the trial court refused to dismiss declaratory judgment claims filed by Rafael Zuniga in a personal injury suit Zuniga filed against San Diego Tortilla ("SDT"). Zuniga lost his hand while operating a tortilla machine at SDT's manufacturing facility. Zuniga alleged that he was working as an independent contractor at the time of the injury, not as SDT's employee. Essex, SDT's liability insurer, agreed to defend SDT against Zuniga's claims but maintained it had no duty to indemnify SDT because Zuniga was in fact SDT's employee when the injury occurred, thereby precluding coverage for Zuniga's claims in accordance with the employee exclusion under the CGL policy.
After Essex rejected Zuniga's settlement demand, Zuniga filed an amended petition adding Essex, seeking a declaration that Essex was obligated to indemnify any judgment entered against SDT. Essex sought mandamus relief after the trial court denied its motion to dismiss. The Supreme Court granted Essex's petition, affirming the long-standing rule in Texas, that "an injured party cannot sue the tortfeasor's insurer directly until the tortfeasor's liability has been finally determined by agreement or judgment." In re Essex Insurance Company, Cause No. 13-1006 (November 21, 2014)(citing Angus Chem. Co. v. IMC Fertilizer, Inc., 939 S.W.2d 138, 138 (Tex. 1997) (per curiam).
Rejecting Zuniga's argument that the "no-direct-action" rule applied only to claims for monetary relief, the Court held the Texas Declaratory Judgment Act did not confer standing on third-party claimants absent a determination that the defendant-insured was in fact liable to the plaintiff. Zuniga also argued the rule conflicted with the Court's previous decisions holding the duty to indemnify could be determined prior to the entry of judgment against the defendant-insured. Id. (citing Burlington N. & Santa Fe Ry. Co. v. Nat'l Union Fire Ins. Co. of Pittsburgh, PA, 334 S.W.3d 217, 219-20 (Tex. 2011) (acknowledging the lower court's ability to decide both the duty to defend and the duty to indemnify, but holding the court "erred by not considering all the evidence presented by the parties when it determined the . . . duty to indemnify"); Tex. Ass'n of Counties Cnty. Gov't Risk Mgmt. Pool v. Matagorda Cnty., 52 S.W.3d 128, 135 (Tex. 2000) (noting an insurer "may, among other options, seek prompt resolution of the coverage dispute in a declaratory judgment action, a step we have encouraged insurers . . . to take") (citing State Farm Fire & Cas. Co. v. Gandy, 925 S.W.2d 696, 714 (Tex. 1996)); Farmers Tex. Cnty. Mut. Ins. Co. v. Griffin, 955 S.W.2d 81, 84 (Tex. 1997) (holding "the duty to indemnify is justiciable before the insured's liability is determined in the liability lawsuit when the insurer has no duty to defend and the same reasons that negate the duty to defend likewise negate any possibility the insurer will ever have a duty to indemnify")). The Court again disagreed, holding its previous decisions cited by Zuniga did not implicate the "no-direct-action" rule because "in each of th[o]se cases, it was the insurer or the insured defendant, not the plaintiff, who sought declaratory relief, or the insured defendant's liability to the plaintiff had in fact been determined before the declaratory judgment suit was filed. Id.
At first glance, the Court's decision seems at odds with the interest of the policyholder because, theoretically, direct-action suits might encourage insurers to reach settlements early and often,. Upon closer examination, however, the decision works to the benefit of the insured. As noted by the Court, allowing Zuniga to pursue claims simultaneously against SDT and its insurer would prejudice SDT's defense because it would be in Essex's best interest to establish Zuniga was SDT's employee so the employee exclusion applies, while it would be in SDT's best interest to establish Zuniga was an independent contractor so the policy would provide coverage for Zuniga's liability claims. As noted by the Court "we do not require insurance companies to perform duties for third-party claimants that are 'coextensive and conflicting' with the duties they owe their insureds," because doing so would "necessarily compromise the duties the insurer owes to its insured." Id. (citing Transp. Ins. Co. v. Faircloth, 898 S.W.2d 269, 279-80 (Tex. 1995).

PALESTINIAN freedom activist Ahed Tamimi said on Wednesday that she would go to prison "a thousand times" to win the freedom of her people.
The youngster was speaking in her Nabi Saleh home in the occupied West Bank days after her release from an Israeli jail where she had served eight months on terrorism charges for slapping a heavily armed Israeli soldier. Hours before, Ms Tamimi's cousin had been shot in the face by a steel-coated bullet, prompting her angry response.
The Tamimi family are well-known campaigners against the illegal occupation of Palestinian land and are routinely harassed by Israeli forces.
"My big dream is to liberate Palestine. I dream to implement all my goals: to learn, to get a PhD.
"I also dream that all those detained – women and men – would be set free in the near future. I also want to say to all those detained: 'I am with you.' I want to say to my detained sisters, if they see me, that I love them, I miss them very much and will never forget them," she said.

Q: How to call Low-Level KeyHook Key-Combinations? I really can't solve this problem and don't even know, if it is possible.
I want to use CTRL+C and CTRL+V shortcuts.
Example: There is 2 Application. 1. App is written in C#, 2. App is an Java-Applet.
I want to Copy string from C# App. and paste it into focused Textbox in Java-Applet.
I ll copy the string in to Clipboard and I need to Paste it into the focused Textbox in Java-Applet.
string data = "12345";
Clipboard.SetData(DataFormats.Text, (Object)data);

Now I need to paste this information into the Textbox in Applet.
How can I Call CTRL+V shortcuts in C#?
Is it possible to do something like that?
Thank You!

A: Another option would be to use InputSimulator which is a very flexible (and reliable) wrapper that is capable of simulating keyboard and mouse events.
It wraps SendInput under the hood but abstracts away all the PInvoke calls and other complexity.  It's a drop in DLL that (for your situation) should only take a couple lines of code.
InputSimulator.SimulateKeyDown(VirtualKeyCode.CTRL);
InputSimulator.SimulateKeyPress(VirtualKeyCode.KEYS_V);
InputSimulator.SimulateKeyUp(VirtualKeyCode.CTRL);

or
InputSimulator.SimulateModifiedKeyStroke(VirtualKeyCode.CONTROL, VirtualKeyCode.VK_C);

A: See How to: Simulate Mouse and Keyboard Events in Code for examples of using SendKeys to send keystrokes to a different application.

Tekken 6 Interview with In Joon Hwang
Posted in Fighting Games, Game-related Events, Gaming, PS3, PSP, Tekken, Tekken 6, Xbox360 on July 31, 2009 by thelonegamer
Check out this Tekken 6 interview conducted by Coin-op TV with Namco-Bandai's In Joon Hwang at the recent San Diego Comic Convention.
Not really anything new… but Mr. Hwang does remind us that it's still about 90 days to the game's release… gah…
Oh MY! Lotsa Awesome New Tekken 6 Screens!
Posted in Fan Service, Fighting Games, Game-related Events, Gaming, PS3, PSP, Tekken, Tekken 6, Xbox360 on July 31, 2009 by thelonegamer
Asuka gives her now-evil cousin Jin the boot.
Game Watch of Japan just posted a HUGE article on the upcoming console versions of Tekken 6. Though it begins safely enough with the usual gaggle of info about the game and the limited edition bundles, some character profiles and game features… it suddenly astounds with some all-new screens, including some cool stills from the Scenario Campaign's Intro CG Cutscene!
Lars begins his Bloody Rebellion.
Tekken Force troops gear for combat.
Firefights ensue as Rebel Tekkenshu take on Zaibatsu Regulars.
The CG cinematic apparently shows Lars Alexandersson (Scenario Campaign mode's default hero) beginning his coup against the Mishima Zaibatsu with an assault on a heavily-guarded facility. Just what is in this base that has Lars interested? Methinks i know, but we'll see. Anyway, awesome stuff!
Rivals Asuka and Lili team against some mean-looking enemies… including what appears to be an armored Bob?
All that plus yes, there even more screens of Scenario Campaign gameplay and pics of the extra console outfits for both Lars and Zafina.
Zafina's new outfit in action.
Also, the Japanese are getting their own Limited and Collector's Edition of the game; once again it comes with The Game and a Wireless Hori Stick plus Art Book. The LE and CE will also be available at Play-Asia, so now everyone can have their extra-expensive and extra-spiffy Tekken 6 this October.
What a great thing to find on a Friday! And you can probably expect more… TONS MORE Tekken 6 stuff to come as the hype for this game heats up. Check out all the exciting goodies here! Tekken 6 is set for release on PS3 and Xbox360 this October 2009- October 27 for the US, while it's October 29 for Japan.
Japanese Tekken 6 Site Updated
Okay, a minor bit here. Namco-Bandai's marketing for Tekken 6 is in full swing, and the game's official US website is reflecting that with their weekly Character Matchup Trailers and various sections filled with stuff to keep gamers thinking about the game as they excruciate until October. On the other side of the pond though, strangely enough the Japanese official Tekken 6 site is… less important. This may have something to do with how the game's sales are 90 percent from overseas markets, but still… there's no excuse to have a lame official game page for such a high-profile release.
Anyway, the Japanese website devs have finally gotten around to updating their stuff slightly, adding a couple of sections for Game Features and adding some Downloadable Wallpapers. So if you've got nothing better to do, check out the Japanese Tekken 6 site and get a nice background for your desktop.
What Makes a 'Deep' Fighter?
Posted in Fighting Games, Game-related Events, Gaming, My Stuff, PS3, PSP, Tekken, Tekken 6, Xbox360 on July 30, 2009 by thelonegamer
Found this bit from the blog of Richard Li, 1Up's resident fighting game guru.
Each game in the top ten Arcadia list provide the player with an wealth of options and possibilities. Tekken 6, for example, is the number one game in japan for over 3 months, and is loved for a good reason. Despite the inordinate cast members, almost every character plays differently, their moves "unique," their playstyle diverse. Watching match videos on youtube is hard to gauge the amount of metathinking, of weighing options, that the players must go through. Wavedashing backwards to get proper spacing, anticipating counterhits and counterthrows, sidestepping intelligently on the z-axis to avoid setups, waiting as a form of baiting — these are the things most ppl miss when watching match videos, and is sorely underappreciated.
I find it quite refreshing to see (deserved) praise for Tekken 6 from a big game site, something I tend to see far too few of these days for some reason. I was kinda worried about the game getting a fair review from a site that is pretty heavy with SFIV and VF, but now I'm kinda having some hope. We'll see though.
Tekken 6 Bloodline Rebellion is, BTW, still the top arcade game in Japan according to the latest issue of Arcadia Magazine. The console versions are due out this October.
Wolverine, Anime-style…
Posted in Action Adventure, Anime, Manga on July 29, 2009 by thelonegamer
Here's the trailer to Marvel's anime version of their adamantium-clawed cash cow, Wolverine. The show is apparently set for a 13-episode run next year, and is being produced by Studio Madhouse (Ninja Scroll, Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust). The trailer has ninja, giant demons and… a strangely bishonen Wolvie slashing arse.
It's… not right. Iffy, at best. It's just NOT Wolverine. The tone is off, the look is waaaaay off, the feel is wrong. If this was entitled anything else, it would probably look cool. But for something called Wolverine… no. My take? Too 'graceful' and not bloody enough. Wolverine is about clenched muscles, clenched teeth, brutal violence and ripping into enemies. He's a gritty, angry, bad-ass and wild killing machine, violent and never pretty, who is often as scary as the enemies he faces. Wolverine is NOT about balletic grace or pretty dances of death, not about artistic precision and limpid-eyed stoicism. This thing.. they've turned Wolverine into freakin' VEGA.
Whatever. May be worth seeing anyway, since it IS from Madhouse. But color me iffy right now.
Broken, Barebones Brawling
Posted in Fighting Games, Game-related Events, Gaming, PS3, Xbox360 on July 29, 2009 by thelonegamer
Reviews for SNK's console port of King of Fighters XII are out, over at 1Up, Team Xbox, IGN and Gametrailers. Though a couple of these reviews are a bit too kind to this seriously lacking and terribly thin arcade port, I think the overall low scores are indicative of how this 'rebirth' to the classic fighting series is more of a false start.
I won't be doing a KOFXII review as I won't be wasting money on this bare cupboard of a game. The simple fact is that this game has NO Single Player Value at all. There's no Story Mode (throwing to the wayside the so far cool storyline with Ash Crimson and the Orochi saga), no Boss to take down, no extras or unlockables (unless you consider a couple of character pics big rewards), no modes or incentive for players without a Class-A internet connection or a posse of regular fight buddies to call over at the drop of a hat. What you get is a very reduced roster with many of the fighters missing moves, an updated KOF fighting engine and the first (and only) real graphical makeover for the series in about 10 years. That's it.
Really, what KOFXII basically is a tech demo or a DLC title being sold off as a full-price game.
Okay, what the heck was SNK thinking when they put this game out? That the Hardcore KOF Fans would eat it up despite all the flaws? That they really don't need to add anything else to the mix aside from two very obscure console exclusive characters (who are among the underdeveloped category)?
KOF has a great storyline running in the last few installments and it's gotten to a bit of a climax with Ash Crimson and his manipulations of Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami… HEY, here's an idea! Let's throw all that aside and just have this latest KOF just be about fighting. At least Blazblue did all it can to make a Single-Player experience viable for the home game… this… I am at a loss.
If you're a hardcore KOF fan who regularly has mates over, then this game may be for you. For fight fans not that much into KOF, if you're looking for a 2D fighter, Blazblue surely has more value. SNK, you screwed up this one. Take a look at good home console ports to see how they're done.

Tekken 6 Console: Scenario Mode Info, Battle Record… Tekken 7?
Harada-san sheds some light on the much-anticipated brawler.
An interview with Namco-Bandai's Katsuhiro Harada at Vandal.net, a Spanish gaming site, revealed some tidbits about the upcoming Tekken 6 for consoles, specifically about the Scenario Campaign Mode. The site is in Spanish, of course, so I took the liberty to use Google Translate.
As we already know, Scenario Campaign is a new, online-capable minigame/mode in Tekken 6 that will allow players to take their favorite Tekken fighters out of the regular arena and battle hordes of enemies in expansive areas and stages. Fight money, customization items and real-time cutscenes are in store for players in this new itineration of the classic Tekken Force mode.
According to the interview, Scenario Campaign is designed to be played either though Offline Single Player or Online Cooperative Multiplayer, and that's it. There is apparently NO Offline Multiplayer AKA two players playing together on the same console, on the same couch. If you're alone and don't have an good internet connection, you play with your chosen fighter and an A.I. controlled buddy. If you're online-connected then you can play alongside someone from the other end of the world, with them controlling your fighter's ally.
According to Harada, the mode was specifically designed this way since two players having to play together using one TV will inevitably require split-screen or always restricting freedom of movement for the characters. If you are playing with a friend online, they can be in another room or area while you are in another, with no such restrictions… since you are using two different TVs.
The interview goes on to mention that one of the options/features being worked on (not 100% confirmed, I guess) is the ability to record matches for uploading online, which then can be viewed or downloaded.
Another feature being developed as well is Character Ghost Creation, how to record your match fighting style and use it in some way.
To end the interview, Harada mentions that he is indeed already thinking of the next Tekken, but it might actually not be called 'Tekken 7', just to change things up. Eh? Intriguing. Check out the original article here.
Tekken 6 is set for the PS3, Xbox360 and PSP this coming October 2009.

I've always been a leader.
I think it's also because I've also always been a control freak. I'm terrible at delegation and tend to live by the mindset, "If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself." This way of doing things has typically served me well in my career. Because of my single-minded, determined, independent approach, I literally built a brand from scratch. I created a social media movement that reaches millions of women across the world every day. I've written four books, including one New York Times bestselling one. I've worked with Oprah. OPRAH. I mean, come on … that's the Holy Grail! I list all of these accomplishments not to brag but to point out how being a leader and hustling and charting my own career path instead of waiting for someone to show me the way has helped me achieve a body of work beyond my wildest dreams.
But guess what? Being a 24/7 leader and boss-babe and control freak has NOT always served me well in my personal life. Why? Because spoiler alert: People in relationships don't like to be controlled. They don't like to be told what to do. And healthy relationships require an equal balance of give and take, lead and follow, push and pull, in order to work.
At the start of 2019, I set a couple of goals for myself: 1) To learn how to let go with greater grace and 2) To recapture my childlike joy. So when a friend who is also the owner of National Dance Clubs approached me in January and asked me if I wanted to help out with their social media in exchange for dance lessons, I jumped at the chance. Here was an opportunity to achieve both of my New Year's resolutions, plus do something that I loved, all in one fell swoop!
I first took dance lessons in my 20s and fell madly in love with ballroom dance. There's a joy and freedom that dancing brings that is unparalleled. Since it had been around 12 years since I had danced, I was eager to see what I remembered and if I would easily slide right back into the groove of things.
There would be moments when I would push when I was supposed to pull. I would anticipate the wrong move and do the wrong thing. I would try to lead a dance I didn't even know the steps to. And I'm pretty sure I made my instructor want to pull his hair out. Dances that could have been fun and easy and lovely became a struggle. And both my instructor and I were frustrated.
Here's the thing. You can't effectively lead if you are unwilling to effectively follow. It takes humility and openness and even bravery to let go and let yourself be led … but it's a necessary part of life. And of being a leader. And of being a good partner. I had forgotten that. I had been so busy doing things my way over the past few years, I hadn't stopped to think that sometimes my way isn't the best way.
Dancing is very much symbolic for relationships. It's two people working together toward a common goal — a beautiful, effortless dance. If both people are leading at the same time, or following at the same time, the dance doesn't work. Or if one person insists on having things their way and isn't open to the other person's point of view, the dance doesn't work. And neither does the relationship.
After a couple of lessons, I started to let go a little and let myself be led. And slowly, the dance started to flow. As do most things when we learn to release our grip of control and just TRUST.
Trust is hard for me. It might be hard for you, too. I get it. But good leadership, and good relationships, require it. The beautiful thing about being a badass take charge boss-babe is that you don't have to be one thing or the other. You don't have to be either sweet or sassy. You don't have to be either strong or vulnerable. And you don't have to be either a leader or a follower. You can be both. You can be all things. And your work — and your relationships — will be better for it.
Two months later, I've finally learned how to fully let go and follow someone else's lead. And my dancing is free and joyful and light and fun. I'm still learning how to let go and follow someone else's lead in life … but I'll get there. Because I want my life and my relationships to be just as free and joyful and light and fun as my dancing.
I want to encourage you to let go a little, too. Stop pacing, stop sweating, stop controlling, stop fretting. Some of the most beautiful things — and beautiful dances — happen when we just let go.

Nuclear Throne - the artist formerly known as Wasteland Kings - hits Steam Early Access
By Tom Sykes 2013-10-12T17:00:36.284Z
It seems like only yesterday (correction: it was only yesterday plus another 11 days ) that Vlambeer's Wasteland Kings was rebranded as Vlambeer's Nuclear Throne , and now the post-apocalyptic mutanty roguelike-like-like is available to buy via Steam Early Access . If you enjoy paying for things before they're done, you'll be given access to (at the current point in time) four worlds, seven characters, two boss fights and "a huge range of weapons, skills and randomly generated goodness". In the game of thrones, you win or you die. In the game of Nuclear Throne, you'll be doing a fair bit of both.
Excitingly, Vlambeer are still livestreaming development of their latest game, every Tuesday and Thursday on both Twitch TV and the Nuclear Throne site . There will be a new build of the game every week, with the finished product eventually containing a bunch more worlds (including secret worlds) and characters, not to mention the Nuclear Throne itself.

Barcelonas Lionel causes a messi fuss at Riyadh airport
Published: 13 November ,2012: 11:04 AM GST Updated: 14 November ,2012: 10:04 AM GST
Argentine and FC Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi had a rifle pointed at his face haphazardly upon arrival at the Saudi capital Riyadh, as security forces tried to protect him from hundreds of fans who flocked in to obtain a glimpse of him up close.
Airport security and armed guards fenced Messi and tried to contain overexcited fans.
Pictures of the Argentinian looking shocked circulated across international media. Marca, a Spanish newspaper specialized in football news, posted a picture of Messi looking startled and wary when a security guard's riffle was haphazardly sticking out touching the player's face.
"The overzealous 'marking' of him by the security forces, however, led to these shocking pictures, which give the impression that he has a gun pointed at his face," Marca wrote on its website.
Spanish website Sport.es highlighted the Argentine's Saudi experience with a title that reads: \'Sultán\' Messi. (Photo courtesy of Sport.es)
Spanish website Sport.es highlighted the Argentine's Saudi experience with one title reading: 'Sultán' Messi. Another title reads: "Messi has Riyadh in suspense."
"The Barcelona striker is already Saudi Leo: Messi has won more Saudi fans," the sports website wrote in Spanish.
Irish sport website JOE.ie remarked: "it has been jokingly suggested in the past that the only way to stop Lionel Messi is with a gun and the striker understandably doesn't look all too comfortable with a rifle pointed at his face."
"While he is normally the one applying military-like precision on the field of play, this was a role reversal and Messi will look forward to getting onto the pitch and doing what he does best, gunning down the opposition," JOE added.
Airport security and armed guards had fenced Messi and tried to contain overexcited fans.
The Saudi Gazette reported that "despite the huge police presence and airport security and five security checkpoints along roads leading to the airport, Messi fans managed to get into the airport."
The paper added that "he was escorted out of the airport by a huge security detail," adding "the player arrived on a private flight with his family before the rest of the team."
Jokes about Messi's messy arrival to Saudi Arabia immediately spiraled on twitter. Commenting on the rifle incident, one tweep wrote: "If a bullet hit him, then there is no way the blood money will be collected even if all the tribes come together to pay it."
Another tweep wrote: "Officer be careful, if this player dies then we will be all in trouble." Some tweeps claimed the mess at the airport was intended to sow fear in Messi and make him unable to focus on his game when he faces Saudi Arabia on Wednesday.
The Argentinean player was among the 22-man squad and the Barcelona forward had to have a security escort to make his way through the crowd of journalists, cameramen, photographers and fans.
Fares al-Delbehi, a fan of Messi, wanted his photo taken with the superstar and to get the Argentine's autograph.
"I came today to fulfill my dream with Messi to take a photo with him and ask him to sign my shirt," he said, according to Reuters.
For Bander al-Delbehi he wanted a photo with Messi so he could post it on every social media format he could think of.
"I hope that I have a picture with Messi to put it on Facebook and BBM (BlackBerry Messenger) and on Twitter and print it and put in my car and everywhere," Delbehi told Reuters.
Messi, 25, surpassed Pele's career-best tally of goals scored in a season on Sunday (November 11) by notching his 75th and 76th goals of the season in Barcelona's 4-2 victory against Mallorca.
Sixty-four of those were for Barca and 12 for Argentina and he is closing in on the record for a calendar year of 85 set by German Gerd Mueller in 1972.
He bagged 50 goals in La Liga last season, smashing Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo's record of 40 from the previous campaign, and was top scorer in the Champions League for an unprecedented fourth straight edition.
Messi is the favorite to claim a fourth consecutive World Player award when the winner is announced in January.
The Argentine has a chance to add to his tally when Argentina plays Saudi Arabia and his next match for Barca is at home to Real Zaragoza in La Liga on Saturday (November 17).

Who was the woman killed near Springfield school?
Who was the woman killed near Springfield school? 11 years ago, she told us.
Anyone with information on Raquel Montgomery's death is encouraged to call police at 417-864-1810 or make an anonymous tip at 417-869-8477.
Police say they went to a Springfield home Tuesday night for a reported shooting and found 29-year-old Raquel R. Montgomery lying in the yard.
Montgomery had been shot, police say, and she later died at a hospital.
The shooter is still at large, and police say they have not yet identified a suspect — or suspects.
According to police, the shooting took place outside a home on the 1400 block of East Blaine Street, less than a block away from Weller Elementary School.
When a News-Leader reporter knocked at the door of that home the morning after the shooting, the man who answered the door declined to comment and indicated that he didn't know anything about it.
Attempts to speak with Montgomery's family have been unsuccessful.
Montgomery, however, spoke with a KOLR10 reporter in February 2007, when she was 18 years old, for a segment on gangs in Springfield.
She was interviewed from inside the Greene County Jail, where she was awaiting trial for robbery and kidnapping charges.
Her face was blurred and she was identified only as "Tiffany," but later that year a prosecutor would play the interview at a sentencing for Montgomery.
Montgomery told the TV reporter she came from a broken home and was "jumped" into a gang at age 11.
The reporter asked Montgomery why people join gangs.
"For protection," she replied. "Just to get help, just to feel part of something, just to get love."
According to court documents, Montgomery had a troubled childhood.
She ran away from juvenile programs, was charged in juvenile court for fighting and once threw another child out a window, court documents say.
At a 2007 plea hearing, Todd Myers, a prosecuting attorney, said Montgomery took part in two robberies in downtown Springfield.
Montgomery was one of a group of people who attacked a man walking through Park Central Square and tried to take his cellphone, Myers said.
Myers described a separate incident in which Montgomery and a male suspect went up to a car, opened the driver's door and held down the driver while they took his cellphone and car stereo.
By the time of her sentencing, Montgomery, then 19, had spent nearly a year in the Greene County Jail.
Montgomery's attorney — Mike Lutke — did not want her interview on KOLR10 to be played at the sentencing hearing.
According to a court transcript, Lutke was upset that jail staff asked and allowed Montgomery to be interviewed by a reporter.
"My client's Sixth Amendment rights were violated," Lutke said. "Namely, her right to legal counsel before giving any statements."
Lutke argued that it was "absurd" to call his client a gang leader, when she was really a troubled teen who struggled to read and had ADHD.
Lutke said the gang problem in Springfield was being vastly overstated and that he didn't want Montgomery to be a "scapegoat."
Myers, the prosecutor, asked the judge to sentence Montgomery to 12 years in prison.
Lutke said Montgomery had done well in a treatment program, and he asked for either probation or placement in a 120-day treatment program.
"This young woman has never been given a break in life by those around her, her family included," Lutke said. "I'm asking today to please give us that break."
Judge Thomas Mountjoy sentenced Montgomery to five years in the prison for the robberies.
It's unclear why Montgomery was at the home on East Blaine Street the night before Valentine's Day.
According to a recording of police scanner traffic on Broadcastify.com from the time of the incident, a 911 caller heard gunshots followed by someone screaming.
Someone reported that a car pulled up in front of the home, two to three gunshots rang out, and the car fled the scene, according to the scanner traffic.
Montgomery's death on Feb. 13 was Springfield's third homicide of 2018.
Anyone with information on the shooting is encouraged to call the Springfield Police Department at 417-864-1810 or make an anonymous tip at 417-869-8477.

Los Angeles Lakers star, LeBron James, said he wants to own the NBA team in Las Vegas
Wilfrid Holden June 9, 2022 2 min read
LeBron Jameswhose net worth was recently assessed to be north of $1 billion by Forbes, has made it known for years that he plans to own an NBA team when he finishes playing.
Now this vision has a site.
"I want a team in Vegas," James said in a clip from the final episode of his talk show "The Store," which begins Friday. "I want the team in Vegas."
James, part-owner of the Liverpool and Boston Red Sox, said last season that his "goal is to own the NBA franchise," adding, "It will be sooner rather than later."
James, 37, will enter his 20th NBA season in the fall when the Los Angeles Lakers training camp opens. He must finish playing before he can buy a team, and he'll have to figure out a proprietary suite to help with the show – the newest NBA team to hit the market, the Minnesota Timberwolves, brought in $1.5 billion in 2021.
James will also need the league to expand to Las Vegas. During his annual NBA Finals press conference last week, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said there are no current plans to expand beyond the league's 30 teams.
"We're not discussing that at the moment," Silver said. "As I said before, at some point this league will steadily expand, but not at the moment we are discussing that."
However, when asked specifically about Seattle and Las Vegas as potential expansion sites, Silver endorsed both locations.
"These are great markets," Silver said. "We were in Seattle. I'm sorry we're not there anymore. We have a WNBA team in Seattle in an almost brand new building that is doing an amazing performance. And Las Vegas, where we'll be in the summer league in July, has shown itself to be a great sports market as well."

Female Medical Teams in Pakistan Reach More Women and Save More Lives than before the Earthquake
MUZAFFARABAD, Pakistan — When the earthquake struck on 8 October 2005, Larmirjan's house collapsed. She was badly injured, and her 18-year-old son was killed. Throughout northern Pakistan, 73,000 died and 3.5 million were left homeless.
While most survivors are now back in their home villages, Larmirjan and her family have nowhere to go. She and her husband came here from Indian-administered Kashmir 15 years ago. They face another hard winter with their four young daughters in a tent in a refugee camp.

But Larmirjan, who is over 40 and nine months pregnant, will at least have the chance to give birth safely, in a fully equipped hospital. She has had regular prenatal care at mobile clinic that regularly visits her camp and is staffed by a female doctor and a midwife.
These services are supported by UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund.
Last October, UNFPA was one of many aid groups that responded to the crisis, working in partnership with the Government to restore medical services throughout the affected region. UNFPA moved quickly to establish and equip emergency medical facilities in two of the most severely damaged districts – Muzaffarabad in Pakistan-administered Kashmir and Mansehra in North West Frontier Province – with a focus on enabling pregnant women to deliver safely.
One year on, Pakistan's internationally supported recovery effort has moved from emergency operations to a longer-term recovery phase. As part of this joint endeavour, UNFPA has set up temporary health centres, complete with women staff, equipment and supplies for quality reproductive and maternal health care.
Indications are that more women in the two districts, including those in remote areas, are using prenatal services, skilled delivery assistance, child health care and family planning than before the earthquake. In some places the level of care exceeds what was previously available.
But enormous challenges remain in meeting health needs. As a second winter approaches, the vast majority of displaced people continue to live in makeshift shelters or tents. Reconstruction of some homes is under way, but only barely. Exposure, crowding, weak diets, bad water and inadequate sanitation compound health problems that existed in this poor region before the earthquake, including those related to pregnancy and childbirth.
"Eighty per cent of the health facilities were destroyed – that's over 500 facilities," notes Jan Vandemoortele, United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator in Pakistan. "We had a successful relief operation. We now have a very complex reconstruction.
"This winter the acid test of our preparedness will be the health sector," he says.
At least 5,000 women give birth each month in the affected areas, where mothers often have six or seven children. Most deliver at home, and maternal mortality is high. Post-earthquake stress and rough living conditions have increased the risks for women.
"Nine out of every ten pregnant women we see are anaemic," reports Dr. Fouzia Shakeel, a female physician in the UNFPA-supported maternity centre at Battal Civil Hospital. This leads to low-weight infants and an elevated risk of miscarriage or haemorrhage during delivery. Dr. Shakeel and her team deliver 30-45 babies each month.
Post-traumatic stress and poor diets contribute to a high rate of pregnancy complications and miscarriages among the earthquake survivors. At the Battal centre, two or three patients each month undergo lifesaving procedures after suffering incomplete miscarriages. Up to five women per month have convulsions or obstructed labour and must be sent by ambulance to a hospital in Mansehra or Abbotabad.
Before the earthquake, such women would have been more likely to die.
In recent months, pre-fabricated metal buildings have replaced the medical tents that numerous relief organizations put up in the weeks after the disaster. UNFPA is part of this effort, erecting and staffing 34 maternal and child health facilities in the hardest-hit areas.
In a region where cultural norms do not allow women to be examined by male physicians, the all-female, live-in staff provide primary care, prenatal checkups, and skilled deliveries round the clock.
At pre-fab rural health centres, a woman doctor and one or two skilled nurses known as lady health visitors treat up to 100 outpatients a day. In Chikkar, high in the hills above the Jheelum Valley, gynaecologist Dr. Aneela Adil and her assistant have in the past month performed 70 deliveries, provided lifesaving care to 35 women after miscarriages, and referred four patients to a hospital for Caesarean-sections.
"Mentally, these women have suffered a lot," Dr. Adil says. "Most are coming with epigastric pain. They are anxious. They are living in stressful conditions. Winter is coming and they don't have proper shelter. They need more counselling than medicine."
A huge share of those killed last October were children, and many grieving parents now want new babies to take the place of those who perished. "Women are coming to me who had two or three children who all died," says Dr. Adil. "So they are looking to me for conception help."
At the same time, health workers report that, as more and more women learn that comprehensive reproductive health care is available, with women providers, increasing numbers are coming for family planning services.
In the busy rural health centre at Chattar Plain, Mansehra district, Nargis, 32, asks Dr. Seemi Khan to help her avoid another pregnancy. She is the mother of four – all survived the earthquake – and she says her husband has no job and doesn't help her with the children. She has been getting contraceptive injections but wants a longer-lasting method. Dr. Khan shows her an intra-uterine device and explains how it works.
One reason demand for services is growing is the network of 'lady health workers' (LHWs) whom the Government trains and supports to educate women in their villages about hygiene and basic well-being, including healthy childbirth. Nargis and several other clients interviewed at the Chattar Plain centre said they had come at the urging of their local health worker.
The health workers report regularly to medical officers on their activities and on health conditions in their villages. During one such meeting at the Battal facility, several health workers spoke about widespread problems such as scabies, and complained about poor water quality. But they also said that villagers are now more likely to listen to their advice, to practise family planning, and to come with them to the clinic for assisted delivery.
Further evidence of the impact of the lady health workers is found in the sprawling Jawa tent camp outside Mansehra, the last such encampment in the district. One group of residents came last July, after rains flooded their post-earthquake settlement on a river bank, displacing them for a second time.
Two LHWs in this group say they are continuing their work in the camp. Kauser Shaeen distributes contraceptives and has a small supply in her tent. She proudly points out that she has just one child after five years of marriage.
Another group of residents in the same camp come from a remote part of the district not covered by the health education programme. At the camp's maternal and child health tent, Dr. Mehnaz Akbar says that prenatal clients from this community have little knowledge of hygiene and often decline tetanus vaccinations and other care because of misconceptions.
"The biggest problem is poverty," she stresses. Because of iodine-deficient diets, many patients have thyroid conditions that can aggravate pregnancy complications.
MOBILE SERVICES REACH REMOTE VILLAGES
For the first time ever, mobile service teams are driving up mountain roads to visit isolated villages like Mastana Gali in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, where the earthquake wrecked 80 per cent of the homes and nearly everyone lives in tents or corrugated iron shacks. A female doctor and her assistant see patients in a tent, which can be set up in a few minutes. Their vehicle serves as a delivery room when the need arises.
News of the clinic's arrival spreads fast, and up to 200 children and adults may show up in a single day. Team leader Dr. Shela Nawaz, a recent medical school graduate from Karachi, reports that patients suffer a variety of ailments, many related to poor hygiene and inadeqate water; scabies, respiratory infections and diarrhoea are among the most common. Villagers are grateful that the mobile clinic provides free medicines.
One young mother has brought her son whose ear is infected; she is also sick to her stomach. It is the first time she has seen a doctor, she says.
According to one resident, 100 babies have been born in this village of 6,000 since the earthquake. Among those who come to the clinic is Naseema, two months pregnant. Dr. Nawaz gives her a prenatal exam and guidance on nutrition and health, and advises her to go down to the nearest health centre to deliver her baby safely when it comes.

A growing number of women are following such advice. At the Garhi Dopatta rural health centre where the mobile unit is based, Dr. Afsheen Qayyum and her team have delivered three or four babies each day for the past two months. "Sure I'm tired," she says with a laugh. "We work day and night, seven days a week."
The staff is well trained to identify prenatal patients who might have problems that the rural health centres are not equipped to handle. They are sent by ambulance to higher-level facilities, like the pre-fab maternity centre at the Hattian Bala hospital, in the Jhelum Valley.
In the post-delivery room at Hattian Bala are several first-time mothers who were referred here for ultrasound exams before delivery. One is Nazia, 19. A month before the earthquake she got married and moved out of her home village, near Chakkar. The village was buried under a massive landslide, killing 3,000 people including her father, brother and sister.
"We had two deliveries last night and one D&C [treatment for incomplete miscarriage]," says staff nurse Saneesh Rahim, describing her previous12-hour shift. "Fortunately, none were problems for us."
Patients who are likely to require surgery can be referred to the even more advanced Abbas Institute of Medicine in Muzaffarabad, usually referred to as the AIMS Hospital, or to the district hospital in Mansehra. UNFPA has provided equipment and staff for maternity wards in both hospitals.
"Last month we had 406 deliveries including 76 C-sections," says Dr. Miriam Zubair at the AIMS Hospital. "Every day we see one or two patients with eclampsia or hypertension. We need more beds and equipment, but patients are being managed well. No one has died."
Dr. Zubair delivered Perveen's baby by Caesarean section. Perveen, who lives in a tent, had five children before the earthquake. The three youngest were killed. One was just a day old.
UNFPA's work to help Pakistan restore maternal and health services is part of a joint Early Recovery Plan, developed in collaboration among the Government's Earthquake Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Authority, UN agencies and civil society partners. Funding has come from Norway, Germany, Kuwait, the United Kingdom, Japan, the Republic of Korea and the European Commission's Humanitarian Aid department (ECHO).
A baby boom continues in the region devastated one year ago. Rebuilding will take years, but health care for many women and their children is already better than before the earthquake.

My friend sent me over a $10 credit to use with sprig.com. Sprig delivers ready-made meals from its two kitchens—one in San Francisco, the other in Palo Alto—to area users in 15 to 20 minutes. Diners can choose from three daily options at lunch and dinner, and brunch on the weekend. Customers can purchase dinner all-in for less than $15 on average. The company uses dynamic pricing, like Uber and Lyft, for delivery, with the average fee clocking in at around $2.75.
I took a stab at trying it out and saw a Autumn Lyonnaise Salad with Hard Boiled Egg. I setup my account, clicked to order, and in 7 minutes, I'm eating this salad. It was super fast. I was so excited that I started eating it all up. Overall, it's a great salad for a good price. Especially if I didn't have to step outside to walk too far. I guess the organic/healthy side of it makes up for the lack of walking. The only thing I had a problem was the bacon. Many of you know I love bacon. The menu listing said 'crisp bacon' and what I received was soggy bacon. Not soggy from fat bacon but moist from being mixed with salad leaves.

I focused strongly on learning time management skills in my sales and management career. The methodology I studied focused on first articulating your values and overarching goals, and setting your long-term and short-term goals to move you towards the overarching goals and values. As I began to articulate my values, I found very little overlap with my life.
I have worked for 25 years to align my values and my life. In 1995, I began articulating my goals for my second career. In order to make sure that I continued to increase the overlap of these two circles, I spent time formalizing a list of values for my second half, and what goals I would set to live according to those values. Here's my list, and I still find value in reflecting on it. Have you crafted a list of the values you want to guide your life? I invite you to do so. It will be wonderfully helpful over time in setting the course of your life and finding God's faint path.
Have you ever done that exercise where you write your own obituary? As I thought about how I would like to be remembered, I came across this poem entitled "Success" and found it wonderfully aspirational. This would represent ending well for me. Leaving well is always a challenge. May you do so in each stage of your life.
Success was the winning entry in a contest run by Brown Book Magazine in 1904. Bessie won a cash prize of $250, which paid off the mortgage on the house, among other things.

In Venezuela the culture is very affectionate. Every morning co-workers, parents and students greet me by light kisses on the left cheek. Where I am from we don't kiss people we don't know, not even an air kiss. Family, yes, maybe. Shaking hands is perfectly acceptable when meeting someone. A hug, maybe, for an old friend. But kissing? No. And people I work with, no. This culture of affection took me a while to get use to; to not greet someone in this style can be seen as cold and standoffish.
When it comes to the classroom there are similar standards between US and Venezuelan teacher expectations. We want students to be focused, complete their work, and be kind to others. Perhaps these are universal code-of-conduct expectations. I recently gave a talk to a school in Sweden about social-emotional learning and PBIS. They also have similar expectations for their students. Perhaps the difference is in how we handle situations and that's where the PBIS framework can help.
In the US our schools are inequitable for our students of color. Boys who are African-American are disciplined at a higher rate than their white counter parts. Teachers who are generally white, middle-class raised, tend to project their values on students who are different from them. It is important as teachers to spend time reflecting on the values they bring to the classroom and how they might be different from their students' backgrounds and their perceptions of the world. Teachers in Sweden tell me they are having similar conflicts as more students from the middle east join Swedish society. Many of us have preconceived ideas and stereotypes about people who are different from us and these ideas must be addressed for our schools to be inclusive to all students and staff.
Teachers should reflect on how they talk to students, discipline students, and reach out to parents and the larger community. Schools need to provide support to teachers by creating school cultures and climates that are respectful to all students and staff, and by providing opportunities for exploration. One way to measure this is by using the Tiered Systems of Fidelity (TFI) Cultural Responsiveness Companion. This is an action planning tool PBIS teams can use to ensure that the practices and systems set up in their schools are sensitive to cultural needs across their school. The TFI is available at www.pbisapps.org as a free tool for schools.
Another great resource is the PBIS Culture Responsiveness Field Guide: Resources for Trainers and Coaches. It is also available at the PBIS website. This guide will walk PBIS teams, and the greater school community, through creating school environments that are safe and effective to all students and staff. It may bring up some hard questions and realizations, but it must be done to ensure that our schools are welcoming and fair to all. More resources on PBIS and equity can be found here: http://www.pbis.org/school/equity-pbis.
The above mentioned guide will be part of my summer reading as I reflect on the past year and get ready for the next year. I hope you make this part of your summer reading too.

So with 2017 drawing near to it's end and you know, 'tis the season to be giving, we wanted to look back at how Japsnoet started and what we gave away this year!
We had a vision to start this family-run company with one big BANG! And so we went out and made that happen. We set out on a journey in early September, a journey (competition) to give away one of our modern cots!
Japsnoet is a family-run business that strives to be more than just an ordinary online shop.
We are not only in the business of creating wooden, toddler furniture, but in forming meaningful relationships with other people in the industry and of course, giving our customers the chance to win and get great deals with us that makes everyone happy all year round!
