The Yale group released their opinion in April of 2017. Noel Casler didn't make his allegation concerning Trump known until this month so how could the Yale group take it into consideration?
Then they must have gotten their indications of Trump's drug abuse somewhere else. Probably the same place they got all the other information they used to make their diagnosis at a distance. Which leads us to the conclusion that either their diagnosis is not as informed and accurate as we're meant to believe, or newyorkguy is profoundly mistaken about Trump's drug abuse.

This is true. Is it? I don't know but it would explain a lot.
The Yale group doesn't say anything about drug abuse. Their diagnosis is straight NPD.
One assumes they considered the report you cited, and discarded it. Why do you think it has merit, when the Yale group does not?
You wondered why the Yale group did not consider "the report (newyorkguy cited", which was Casler's claim of Trump's Adderall use. I pointed out that Casler's claim didn't come out until well after the Yale group's letter was published. You then said "Then they must have gotten their indications of Trump's drug abuse somewhere else." But as you rightly pointed out earlier, the Yale group never mentioned drug use so what indications of drug use by the Yale group are you referring to? Additionally, newyorkguy made no claims that Trump was using drugs, only that, if true, it would explain a lot.
newyorkguy made no claims that Trump was using drugs, only that, if true, it would explain a lot.
Donald was so delighted with the results that he started recommending Dr. Greenberg's treatments to his brother Robert, various friends, and celebrity acquaintances such as Diana Ross. The diet drugs, which he took in pill form, not only curbed his appetite but gave him a feeling of euphoria and unlimited energy. The medical literature warned that some potentially dangerous side effects could result from long-term usage; they included anxiety, insomnia, and delusions of grandeur. According to several Trump Organization insiders, Donald exhibited all these ominous symptoms of diet drug usage, and then some.
How can anyone watch this guy's press conference going on right now -- in which he has said the government shutdown could go on for "months or years" -- and not think he's radically delusional?
That would explain how he keeps his svelte "239" lbs figure!
I just watched the one he gave a few minutes ago. He was all over the place using his typical 12 year old level vocabulary and syntax. And a not too intelligent 12 year old at that. He makes me cringe.
It could 'go on for months or years'? If so, the 700,000+ workers who aren't getting paid will have to quit and find other jobs. He'll probably then declare how the economy is doing so well that another 700,000 jobs just opened up!
This press conference, just now, has sealed the fact that he is an *******, egomaniac, stupid and unfit to be the "leader of the free world". What a cluster-****.
How is that delusional? It's actually a fair assessment of the current state. Neither side has show signs of compromise. Not saying it's right or wrong, but it's an accurate assessment.
The problem is there is no way to quit. So if we go out and get another job, take a day off to go back to our fed jobs to resign, we could get some serious back pay!
Seriously, even if I wanted to, I could not quit. Getting another job could actually cost me my current job so it would have to be one hell of an opportunity to say the least.
Time to make sure my unemployment is squared away.
If Trump is abusing drugs, and the Yale group didn't see the signs and didn't include it in their diagnosis, then this calls into question their diagnosis and their methodology. It also undermines their argument that they're making a justified exception to the conventional ethics of their profession. A suspect methodology is a bad reason to deviate from standard practice.
If you accept the Yale group's diagnosis, then the most reasonable response to newyorkguy's idea is that it's mistaken, and that Casler's claim is probably false.
The Yale group did not include in their commentary any proposed reasons for Trump to display the symptoms that he shows. Drug use is only one of a myriad of reasons that Trump turned out to be the bizaar Peron that he is. The underlying reasons are only incidental to the presentation. They do not call anything into question.
That's nowhere close to all he said. And the delusion, among many others, is that he thinks nobody is hurt by the government shutdown and everybody supports him. He also reveals once again that he doesn't understand how tariffs work, and he claims the steel industry is "roaring back."
See for yourself, if you have an hour or so.
I saw bizaar Peron open up for Gogol Bordello. Great show!
The Yale group's analysis is explicitly a proposed reason for his behavior. The Yale group attributes it to NPD, a mental disorder cataloged in the DSM. newyorkguy attributes it to drug abuse.
Could you do me a favor and put the goalposts back where you initially found them? You made a specific claim on a specific quote.
No one said that Trump is currently abusing drugs. Even Casler, who used it in a comedy skit, won't verify if he was serious or not. The story about the amphetamine-like drug is that he supposedly used it in the early 80's so why should the Yale group have seen signs of it and taken it into their diagnosis over 40 years later?
And the GOP voices on PBS right now are sucking it up. As if Trump's latest press conference meant anything other than Trump for and about Trump.
Like the TSA employees are going to work for a year without pay.
He's ignorant. And the GOP should note that because they look ignorant when they believe in Trump.
How is it delusional? Really?
If you think it's a fair assessment you aren't looking at anything beyond the Trump/Pelosi/Schummer meeting. The world is bigger than that. Even McConnell is hiding behind a Nunes bush.
I continue to wonder, based on things I've read, if what appears to be mental illness/irrational behavior isn't really a result of Trump's long term amphetamine abuse.
I've quoted this twice now for you. What part of "I continue to wonder" and "is it?" (true) I don't know but it would explain a lot,"
keeps escaping you? Newyorkguy is not attributing it to drug use. He is saying it's a possibility from what others who knew Trump have said/written.
The Yale group were diagnosing the symptoms, not the cause.
One can get gangrene from frostbite or a burn, amongst other causes. It would be ridiculous to say "this doctor diagnosed gangrene - but now we know the patient had had frostbite", which seems pretty analogous to your argument.
I'd say that the simplest answer to your question is that people who share his delusion would not think his statements indicate that he is radically delusional.
Also, you may be overestimating the number of people who saw the unedited footage of the press conference. I'd be amazed if more than 4% of the electorate watched it.
This is probably a question for newyorkguy, who claims that the drug abuse hypothesis has been explanatory power.
It's a possibility that the Yale group has discounted. They didn't look at Trump's behavior and say, "that's explained by drug abuse."
They said, "that's explained by NPD."
No, I asked you, not nyg, because you are the one who alleges the Yale group's diagnosis is somehow undermined because they didn't consider Trump's diet pill drug use from 40 odd years ago or Casler's unsubstantiated claim (which wasn't made until after their diagnosis).
Try and concentrate on what the actual topic is. You claimed nyg "attributes it (Trump's behavior) to drug abuse." I pointed out that is not what nyg said. Rather than acknowledge he didn't say what you allege he did, you shift to the Yale group "discounted" drug use...which it most certainly did not. They said nothing about drug use which you, yourself, earlier admitted. There is no evidence that Trump currently, or even recently, uses drugs but the Yale experts saw ample evidence of NPD. Hell, who doesn't other than the willfully blind or his base?* Trump could be the NPD poster boy.
ETA*: which is pretty much the same thing.

No, it calls into question your knowledge of the disorder and of psychiatry in general.
I think we can all agree he's not getting any more sane, as time goes by. I give him six months before he needs special assistants to prevent him from eating the cedar chips that line the floor of his habitat.
That's not a question, it's a perjury trap.
One can understand Trump's behaviour, to first approximation, as infantile. I have experience of infants. I have experience of people lapsing into senility. What I have no experience of is an infant lapsing into senility. Life always has something new to offer.
Probably some hard narcotic like caffeine.
many NPD sufferers turn to drugs and alcohol as a way to escape their feelings of desperation, disappointment, and vulnerability. Addiction to drugs and alcohol is very common among NPD sufferers, who are often too proud to admit they've let their drinking or drug use get out of control.
The article includes a couple of interesting "Facts and Statistics" about NPD and drug use.
I'm pretty sure the idea wasn't to go back to your previous job after, but simply get another one (which, admitedly, isn't always simple).
I think we can all agree he's not getting any more sane, as time goes by.
Either that, or he's perfectly stable and it's the rest of us who are going insane.
Just in case you have not heard about the most recent Trump lie, now that stupid piece of Trump is saying things like 'I never stated that Mexico would pay for the Mexico border wall'.
The drug was Tenuate Dospan. Unlike caffeine, it is by prescription only.
Tenuate Dospan 75 MG is classified as a Schedule 4 controlled substance under the Controlled Substance Act (CSA).
Trump perfectly stable - probably not.
Other people going insane over Trump - absolutely.
And by "going insane over Trump" you mean "trying to run US government properly despite all the interference coming from the putrid orange snowflake"?
Yeah, but I'm cool with the one I've got. The other issue is that I work on some sensitive projects that I'm not sure how I could discuss it in a meaningful way that would land me a job in the public sector with better pay and benefits.
Also, I'm a bit concerned that some people with skills that are fairly irreplaceable, might come back just long enough to retire.

GKFC appoint Italian coach Vincenzo Alberto Annese

But is it worth seeing? If you didn't like any of the followups after the spectacular Curse of the Black Pearl, then you'll probably find plenty you don't like about this one. If you're like me, I was a huge fan of the world the first Pirates created, and that intrigue made the sequels worth it. While I didn't watch Stranger Tides, Dead Men Tell No Tales tied in magnificently with the story up to three. There were only a few things I was not aware of that carried over from the fourth movie.
The film itself was filled with what you expect: Jack Sparrow always someone being one drunken step ahead of his misfortune. That being said, I was definitely left with plenty of questions and the ending did feel not as "climaxing" as I had wished. I felt like, honestly, the plots and twists they did introduce needed to be developed more. Then again, its been a while since I've watched the predecessors, not to mention whatever went down in Stranger Tides.
But if you're looked for a laugh, a phenomenal antagonist, Jack Sparrow, and the consistent genius of intrigue, I would totally recommend this. It's surely another Pirates of the Caribbean film no doubt, and I enjoyed it.

U.S. cover
Call to boycott 'HBP' by environmental groups
July 7, 2005 at 9:30 AM ET
Geri HPANA (via New York Times)
Environmental groups Greenpeace and the National Wildlife Federation are asking Harry Potter fans in the U.S. not to buy the Scholastic version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince but to instead purchase the book from Canadian publisher Raincoast Books because it is printed on recycled paper.
Raincoast publishes the Harry Potter books on 100% post-consumer recycled paper, whereas Scholastic have disclosed that they use only paper that did not come from ancient or endangered forests.
Ms. Rycroft, campaigns director of Markets Initiative, a conservation group in Canada said:
If we get Harry Potter and the Bible, that pretty much covers the best sellers. Scholastic has failed to really meaningfully step forward to have Harry printed on the most environmentally friendly paper that it can be.
Meanwhile, a spokesman for Scholastic, Ms. Kyle Good commented:
I think the fans who know Scholastic and the people who buy from Scholastic understand that we are an environmentally concerned company and we don't endanger forests ever with the paper we use.
Some larger publishers in the U.S. are concerned about the lack of forest-friendly paper as well as the cost and quality of the paper. Ms. Rowling's agent, Neil Blair from the Christopher Little Literary Agency said the author would not comment on the matter.
If you do choose to order your book from Canada please note that it will cost you $2 more, not including extra shipping costs. You can also check out this story from the BBC.


Whatcha going to do with this thing in your way? Ignore it? Wait for someone else to move it? What IS your thing, your TIRE? Your past? A hurt? An unseen goal? An illness? A lost dream? An addiction?
Move that thing out of the way and in doing so, realize that YOU are stronger for tackling it. Your muscles ache, your arms burn. You are alive.
I don't know what your TIRE looks like. I don't know if you are jumping over it, ignoring it, or moving that bad boy out of the way. All I know is what I did with my own TIRE, and how it made me stronger.
My TIRE showed up about five years ago. Seemingly unsurmountable issues starting festering in ways that were quickly proving the enemy was trying to take not only me down, but my girls, my marriage and my step children. I COULDN'T move that tire. I didn't know why. I was anything but strong. On a certain day in April of 2012 that I purposely forget the date of, my life, and the life of my family, changed drastically. In all areas of my life, the Enemy had won. I was defeated. Let's fast forward... five and half years later, I am able to sit here and know that it was the people in my life that chose to stick around and the friends and mentors that rescued me and delivered me safely to a rock of certainty and to a place of absolute conviction that I had a message to share. Not only did I lift that tire out of the way, I used it to make me STRONG. That day was meant to destroy me.., my girls, my marriage, my step children, but instead it took a simple twist through the years that created some strength, gumption, endurance and confidence that I would have otherwise never found.
I don't know what's in your way today, and I don't know what you've tried to do to overcome it but I do know for me, an unmistakable faith took over, friends steered me in the right direction and my own strength became strong enough to move that junk out of the way! And YOU can find that STRENGTH too. I am here to help you find it.

Virtual Power: How and Why Latino Netroots Activists Targeted Lou Dobbs
Aarti Shahani is a public service fellow at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government and a writing fellow at Justice Strategies. She talked to Roberto Lovato (above), businessman, activist and founder of Presente.org, the face of the campaigns to demand Lou Dobbs' ouster from CNN by Hispanic and pro-immigration activists. Here's their conversation.
A.S.: Why did you go after Dobbs?
R.L.: To be clear, CNN was our target. Lou Dobbs was their 800-pound gorilla. We used him to get to (CNN/US President) Jon Klein. Dobbs was repudiated among colleagues and managers. Peers confirmed that he's a volatile person. We assessed his vulnerability, and decided it was ripe.
We also looked at the market conditions. His ratings and CNN's were both falling. Like any media company, CNN has to establish a beachhead in a mission-critical Hispanic market. It's 50-million strong and growing. If you have a problem in the Latino market, you have a problem with your very future.
CNN's gotten other threats of boycotts. None had delivered anything resembling a credible threat.
A.S.: What's a credible threat?
R.L.: We didn't call for a boycott. We made a strategic choice to tease out a contradiction. CNN was preparing the series "Latinos in America," a major attempt to court [us]. We produced a YouTube video that contrasted Dobbs with its host Soledad O'Brien. We made it clear that we're not targeting her.
Our video went viral. We had events in eighteen cities.
In the 2006, millions of immigrants marched for rights with their feet and defeated laws that wanted to put us in jail. We haven't had wins since then. We went back to where people marched, in Denver, Miami, Oregon. Hundreds signed up via text messages after we talked on Spanish radio. Immigrants are incensed. They marched with their fingers, so to speak. We gathered 100,000 signatures online in just over a month. It stunned even us.
CNN knew what that meant. Klein says that Latinos had nothing to do with Dobbs' departure. What do you expect? Power concedes nothing without a demand. It conceded our demand. Obviously CNN doesn't want to encourage other activists.
The funny thing is, Dobbs left at an inopportune time. We began conversations with CNN advertisers and were planning a hemispheric press conference in ten Latin American countries.
A.S.: When I asked Newt Gingrich about your campaign at a public event last month, he said, "If we can get conservatives to petition for MSNBC to dump a couple of people, then I'm pretty happy to look at this petition for Lou Dobbs." Are you surprised he didn't run to Dobbs' defense?
R.L.: A lot of people don't like Dobbs. Funny thing is, the majority of people adversely impacted by him didn't even know who he was. Our campaign got the word out to Spanish speakers.
A.S.: Dobbs called you a flea. How do you respond?
R.L.: Dobbs is a mouthpiece for the extreme right's hate. Our campaign was as an act of love. I don't care if people think that sounds touchy-feely. Strategy is nothing if not the spirit of one adversary taking on another. The combative spirit of Latinos was central to our calculations. We won't take verbal violence that results in physical violence. We started and ended with love for ourselves.
A.S.: Didn't you infringe on Dobbs' right to free speech?
R.L.: Is it a legitimate business model to make money off hate? Dobbs himself started hiding behind the 1st amendment. Sure he can speak. But the Constitution doesn't say anything about his right to a show on CNN. Even Ted Turner said in a 2008 interview that he would fire Dobbs immediately. There's precedent on hate speech. Remember Don Imus?
Media hasn't done serious coverage of media justice issues. We expected the reception context for our message in liberal editorial rooms to be unfavorable. We assumed we'd be racialized and interpreted not advantageously. Rather than whine and lament, we strategized. We got good, significant press coverage, even in mainstream national media.
A.S.: Nicco Mele, the cyber-organizing guru who ran Howard Dean's online campaign, says "the internet is very powerful for anti-establishment underdogs and issues." Now that Presente.org won, what's next?
R.L.: A whole lot of listening. We've amassed a modicum of people power. Our mission is to build on it by hearing our base. We're consciously celebrating our victory. It's important for a people to stop and reflect. This is my first day of rest. I turned on CNN at 7 pm and there's John King. Oh my god. What have we done?

Vatnajökull is the largest glacier in Europe. There are a few places where it's possible to get very close to it, including the Skaftafell/Vatnajökull National Park or Jökulsarlon, a lagoon where large pieces of ice come off from the glacier, forming icebergs. Next to it is a black sand beach called Diamond Beach: the name comes from the little icebergs stranded on the sand that look like diamonds… simply stunning!
This seal was swimming in the lagoon of Jökulsarlon, not realising that I was standing just next to the shore. When he finally saw me he was only 2 meters away from me and he dived so quickly..
…after he saw me and dived further away, the seal came back to the surface of the water and stared back at me. He was cute with his little face obviously scared of what just happened to him!

Argentina: Rosario, Argentina :: Crewmembers perform a drama depicting a human trafficking situation at an event on board the ship.
Chatting to church members from a vulnerable community, crewmembers realised they had an opportunity to help by giftting their clothes to the Roperito scheme, which means 'Little wardrobe.'
The crewmembers also welcomed the church to Logos Hope, to give them a training on human trafficking so they are better equipped to protect their own community or prevent crime.
As part of raising awareness of one aspect of human trafficking – prostitution – two crewmembers performed a drama where a woman, desperate to find work so she can feed her child, accepts a job in Africa. The woman ends up being assaulted, tied up and forced to sell her body.
One of the actors, Tom* (Germany), explained, "Through this drama, people get more insight of what human trafficking is. There are screams; sometimes a drama provokes more reaction than giving information." Some of the church members were visibly moved by what they witnessed. In this way, crew want to show that each person who is trafficked had a life and hoped for better before they were trapped in difficult situations.
Pastor Analia Coni said her church is going to pray differently from now on, as they had never realised the scale of human trafficking. "Often, people in our country disappear… People with little means don't have anyone to guide them," she says. "They should hear what we learnt. I am so thankful to Logos Hope for all the love we received. Christ needs people like you who give their best."
The ship donated Bibles to the church, as well as audio Bibles for two members who are blind. Analia told one of the volunteers, "In life we have been treated like second-class people, so we never expected to be treated with such respect. My congregation was in tears and said that this is what heaven must look like; all tribes and nations living in peace and worshipping God together."

Bart Davenport
Physical World
Someone2Dance
Searching For Bart Davenport
With All Due Respect
The Day I Turned To Glass
Maroon Cocoon
Bart Davenport might be a multitude of things, depending on whom you ask. He's been a mod, a blues singer and a softrock troubadour. He's an eccentric guitarist and singer with the timeless voice of a real crooner. He lives and writes songs in Los Angeles. His work transports us to an imagined past or future that is curiously both the 80s and the 60s. Like most speculative fiction, Davenport's stories might just be a reflection of now, taking place in a fantasy world but conveying personal and universal truths. He performs and records with his band The Bedazzled, featuring bassist Jessica Espeleta, guitarist Wayne Faler (Dream Boys) and drummer Andres Renteria. The group recently spent 11 days at a studio in Boyle Heights with producer, Aaron M. Olson (L.A. Takedown) recording 'Blue Motel' the latest Bart Davenport record scheduled for release in April 2018 on Lovemonk Records (Spain/US).
A native of Oakland, California, Bart Davenport's roots are in the 90s garage and blues scenes. His first band, The Loved Ones performed a rawkus style of r&b, opening for the likes of Junior Wells and John Lee Hooker. In the 00s Davenport went solo and turned the volume down but not the intensity. Whitest Boy Alive and Kings of Convenience singer, Erlend Øye, has called him the "best one-guy-and-guitar performer there is". It made pragmatic sense to tour "solo" but Davenport's heart was always in ensemble band arrangements and his recordings often reflect his affection for collaboration.
Released in 2002, Bart's self-titled solo debut was an indie pop layer cake filled with drums, organs and vocal harmonies. He quickly followed that in 2003 with 'Game Preserve' on Antenna Farm Records. Next came 'Maroon Cocoon' in 2005, a carefully honed lo/hi fi record. In 2007, a side project called Honeycut released 'The Day I Turned To Glass' on Quannum Projects. Their tune, 'Exodus Honey', was featured on an iMac ad campaign as well as the installation disc for Mac OS Leopard and Snow Leopard. Bart Davenport returned in 2008 with his fourth solo album, 'Palaces'. Featuring production help from psychedelic main man Kelley Stoltz, the album would be referred to by Sylvie Simmons of MOJO as "a fine example of San Fran's vinyl and thrift shop culture, turning stuff people throw out into something new".
Between Fall 2010 and Spring 2011, Davenport released three European records and spent much of his time touring the continent. There was a covers album, 'Searching For Bart Davenport' (Tapete Records, Germany) and two from side projects; 'With All Due Respect' by Incarnations (Lovemonk, Spain) and 'Comedians' by Honeycut (Discograph, France). In 2012, Bart Davenport's 'Someone2Dance' b/w 'Cheap Words' saw the return of longtime compatriot, Sam Flax, as Producer. The Flax production opened a new chapter in the Davenport saga, with synthesizers reminiscent of 80s new wave. Following that, Davenport relocated to Los Angeles where he gathered together the band that would eventually record 'Physical World', released in March 2014 to some critical acclaim. Indeed, Pitchfork described it as "sophisticated and cheap-sounding at once, it's likeable within five seconds of hitting your ears". In 2017 Bart & The Bedazzled recorded a follow up album titled, 'Blue Motel' produced by Aaron M. Olson whose signature sounds give the new album a darker, cinematic atmosphere.

Ignacio Hernandez, City College's Associated Student Government President and a DACA student.
San Diego Community College District students, administrators, faculty, and staff responded with shock and anger following the September 5 announcement by the Trump Administration that it would "wind down" the DACA program.
Specifically, the Department of Homeland Security announced it will no longer accept new applications for DACA. Pending applications for new participants will still be considered. The Administration has provided a six-month delay for phasing out the program. Current participants with a permit that expires before March 5, 2017 may submit a renewal application prior to October 5, 2017. After March 5 there will be no additional renewals, with tens of thousands of individuals estimated to lose their permits each month. The aim behind the six month delay in phasing out current recipients is to provide Congress time to pass a legislative remedy.
DACA, or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, was established by the Obama Administration to temporarily shield undocumented individuals who came to the U.S. before age 16 and met the necessary criteria to lawfully remain in the country. About 800,000 people have received DACA status since the program's inception in 2012.
The District estimates that at least 466 of its students at San Diego City College, Mesa College, Miramar College, and San Diego Continuing Education have DACA status based upon their application for financial aid. The district is certain there are many more DACA students who have not identified themselves likely out of fear. It is not known how many District employees have DACA status since that information is not requested at the time of employment.
In the wake of the announcement, Chancellor Carroll said the District will do everything in its power to protect DACA students and others from intrusions onto its campuses by federal immigration officials. The SDCCD previously adopted a policy that neither the District nor the SDCCD Police will cooperate in any way with requests from the Border Patrol or other agencies absent legal authority.
Recently, the District sent a letter to President Trump urging him to continue the DACA program. Since now it appears that DACA's fate will rest with Congress, the District is now focusing its efforts on advocating with federal representatives for new legislation, such as the DREAM Act, that would protect "Dreamers" and allow them to continue their studies and/or pursue their careers.
The District and its colleges are also working directly with its DACA students – workshops are being planned to provide them with legal advice and assist them with decisions about what to do next. In addition, information campaigns are being developed to let them know of available resources on campus and that SDCCD campuses are safe places and to encourage them to stay in school and continue to pursue their dreams.
Hernandez, who is also the District's student trustee representing City College, says he is encouraging students to stay in school and to seek advice from an immigration attorney. Understandably, many DACA students are weighing their options.
One important distinction is the difference between DACA Dreamers and California Dream Act Students. DACA Dreamers are those undocumented immigrants who were brought the U.S. as children. However, students that are AB540 eligible are considered California Dream Act Students. These students are still eligible for state-based aid and are still Dreamers at the state level.
The District will offer up-to-date information online with resources for DACA students and others with questions about the Trump Administration's actions. The District website will also provide opportunities for visitors to take action to support legislative and legal efforts to protect Dreamers.
In the meantime, additional resources for undocumented students can be found on the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office website.

Mass Effect: Promised the Galaxy, Delivered… a Star System
Mass Effect, the latest installment of Bioware's epic RPGs, promised us the world, nay, the galaxy. It spoke of a universe of incredible depth, a future world in which humanity has discovered the means by which to travel to distant stars, interact with aliens, and eek our our place in the galaxy. It's got an incredibly compelling story, in which you are selected as humanity's first "Spectre," an agent of the galactic government empowered to do anything you see fit to preserve galactic stability. The visual artwork is compelling; the game has a "graininess filter," to make it look like an old 80's sci fi movie, and the music fits right into that genre (it makes the game feel all nostalgic). The use of HDR is gorgeous, and while at times it might feel a little overused, in general it is fantastic.
Although graphical quality is excellent, there is one exception: load times. Please, take five more seconds to load the textures and the bump maps.
As you can see in the photo to the left (I apologize, they were taken from my digital camera pointed at my TV), the bump map and texture map on the ground didn't load immediately. Take a few extra seconds and load the bump maps before I get into the game. In my opinion, it's incredibly immersion breaking, and should have been unacceptable to Bioware. Unless load time was one of the highest-priority requirements, which I can't imagine (and I'll say why in a second), it amazes me that it made it to production.
One of the COOL things about loading in this game, though, is the elevator load style. Loading happens in a lot of areas by going into elevators – definitely one of the least immersion-breaking aspects of the game. That was a fantastic move, and in fact while we're on the Citadel, you can pick up information on new missions and get a little more information about your squad members. It was definitely one of the strongest parts of the game.
This is without a doubt one of the best games I've ever played in terms of control. It is incredibly easy to control the characters, the selection of dialogue is fantastic, and the menu interface is great (with the single exception of – surprise, surprise – inventory management).
One thing I'm curious about – the E3 2006 dialog depicted to the left – where did it go? "A billion lives are hanging in the balance here. I won't let some piss-ant bartender slow me down." That seemed like such a great scene. I'm disappointed that it's not in the game.
There is one downer – the vehicle is ridiculous in terms of control. I'm on my third playthrough, and I haven't figure out how to control it steadily. One thing I totally loved, though, was the running-over the Geth. It was fun to run them into the lava on the planet, incidentally, shown in the image with the bad load times.
I also don't like the mission assignments. Besides the main quests, it's annoying to hear from the Systems Alliance admiral whom you never meet, who just says "You're a Spectre, and you answer to the Council, but you're still a human." Come on, give me a break. Seth Green, give me a chance to say no – don't just say "Transmission comin' in – patchin' it through" every freaking time I look at the Galaxy Map. PLEASE, SETH GREEN, LET ME DO MY OWN THING!
The music is absolutely fantastic. It's one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard; it's absolutely distinctive. And it was inexpensive to buy on iTunes! Other than that, I can't say much.
Finally – the Universe
I think this is possibly Mass Effect's greatest weakness, as well as the greatest strength. While places like the Citadel are built up very well, the Citadel feels like about 60% of the universe's civilization. That's pretty sad considering that they indicate a few million (maybe seven million) people live on the Citadel, and there have to be hundreds of billions, if not trillions, of people across the galaxy. The planets you can visit outside of the main quest feel forced and random, not to mention barren. It's supposed to be the galaxy – why do I hardly ever run into people who aren't trying to kill me?
But on the other hand, the way the other races are introduced and described is incredibly thorough. It's exactly how I'd like to see a game introduce the races it has. I can't sing the praises of the story or the universe (in this sense) enough.
Go buy it, if you haven't yet. It's worth the cash. Get it new – support BioWare.

An extra special gift set option from Michel Furdyna! Two bottles of this wonderful La Reserve Blanc de Noirs and one bottle of Cuvée Carte Blanche presented as part of a three bottle set in a wooden box that makes the perfect present!
The slightly warmer climate of Michel's vineyards in the south of the region is reflected in the approachability and sheer drinkability of this harmonious wine. Forward in fruit and generously proportioned, this will not disappoint. We love it on its own, yet it will match perfectly a pulled pork dish, or any tagine with black fruits.
La Réserve Brut is made of 100% Pinot Noir which is the main Style of Michel Furdyna house, delicate and elegant, so food friendly and great on its own.
The lovely Cuvée Carte Blanche is floral and fruity. Its crispiness coming from the 10% of the unusual Pinot Blanc make it special and ideal for an aperitif!

Capital Commons evacuated due to odor
Firefighters stood outside the Capital Commons commercial building Wednesday afternoon, while the hydrogen sulfide detected on the lower levels was ventilated out. NICK REID—Monitor staff '; }
Firefighters stand outside the Capital Commons on Wednesday while hydrogen sulfide in the lower levels is ventilated out. NICK REIDMonitor staff '; }
By NICK REID
Published: 8/3/2016 1:56:32 PM
It was more than just stinky. The rotten eggs smell that caused the evacuation of a downtown building Wednesday could have threatened the safety of people inside, a fire official said.
The eight-story Capital Commons commercial building at 11 S. Main St. – home to tenants such as O Steaks & Seafood and Red River Theatres – was evacuated for more than four hours, while firefighters investigated the pungent odor and ventilated it to a safe level.
Battalion Chief Sean Brown said firefighters detected levels of hydrogen sulfide that were high enough to endanger the people on the lower floors of the 93,000-square-foot building. The building was evacuated about 11:30 a.m.
By 3:45 p.m., firefighters had ventilated the building enough that they could leave the scene, according to a press release issued by Chief Dan Andrus.
Brown said hydrogen sulfide is associated with sewer gas and the recent drought conditions could have dried out plumbing traps that would have otherwise filtered the gas before it entered the building.
"It could very well be associated with the lack of rain," he said, adding that the construction project on Main Street didn't contribute to the issue.
Prolonged exposure to low concentrations of the gas can cause nausea and headaches, according to the federal Occupational Safety & Health Administration. Higher concentrations can have more serious effects.
Built in 2008, Capital Commons is a prominent brick and granite commercial building with several tenants.
Employees could be seen waiting outside during the sunny afternoon, while traffic flowed past fire trucks parked in the construction zone.

Exodus House
Oklahoma prisoners struggle to find stable housing after release
Quinton Chandler
JANUARY 23, 2020 | 1:07 PM
Listen online:
Robin Wertz interviews dozens of prisoners to determine who would be a good fit at the Oklahoma City Exodus House.
The outside world was overwhelming when Robin Wertz was released from prison in 2007. Today, she helps others who are having that same experience as the site director of Exodus House, a transitional housing unit that helps people get back on their feet.
"We can't go back out into crime-ridden drug-infested neighborhoods," Wertz said. "We have to provide communities where they're getting the resources they need and they're being inspired."
In her office, she has a file cabinet filled with neatly organized folders holding dozens of letters from prisoners hunting for a home.
Wertz says they ask her for an apartment and she sends them an application. If they're approved she'll schedule them to take an apartment when one becomes available.
Right now, all of the apartments are committed to prisoners scheduled for release. She has no more room. But, there's a waiting list. Twelve names have been added so far, and she still has 25 more applications to review.
Recidivism and homelessness
Oklahoma Department of Corrections data suggests nearly a quarter of people released from prison will go back. They're also at higher risk of being homeless.
According to data from the Prison Policy Initiative, people who've been incarcerated are almost 10 times more likely to be homeless than the general public.
Survey data from Oklahoma City suggests 3 out 4 homeless people who don't have shelter have experienced some form of incarceration.
Transitional housing programs are one of the few tools Oklahoma communities have to help former prisoners start building stability right away.
But, there aren't enough of them to help everyone being released. The Department of Corrections doesn't keep a complete list of this kind of housing, but the charities who run them say they're often full and most are clustered in the state's two largest cities. Finding similar programs in rural communities can be hard.
Pam Dobbins launched Christian Helping Hands' housing program shortly after she took over in 2009.
Filling the gap in rural OK
Pam Dobbins runs Christian Helping Hands in Comanche. She says they're the only transitional housing program in Jefferson and Stephens Counties.
Comanche is about an hour and a half southwest of Oklahoma City. Christian Helping Hands houses women who've left prison in homes that were donated to the program.
"Some come stay 30 days. Some stay 9 months and they feel like they're ready to be on their own," Dobbins said. "They can stay up to a year. It just depends."
Christian Helping Hands started as a food pantry. Dobbins took over about 10 years ago and decided to expand the program when she met eight homeless single mothers.
"We found out (that) somewhere in their past they had been incarcerated and incarceration had a lot to do with their homelessness," Dobbins said.
Victoria Swier was released from prison in 2018 and she says coming out of prison was a hard transition.
"What am I supposed to do when you don't make your own decisions on what you get to eat and what you get to wear?" Swier said. "All of the choices you get to make now kind of are overwhelming."
One of her first decisions was to move back into Stephens County. She was told to move to Oklahoma City or Tulsa where there are more services and no bad influences from her past. But she wanted to be near her kids who live in Duncan.
"That was one of my main focuses was to reconnect and because I had missed out on so much, I didn't want to miss out on anything," Swier said.
In the last two years, Swier says she's made great progress with her children that wouldn't have been possible if she'd moved outside of the county, but this program is unique in rural Oklahoma.
Pam Dobbins, Victoria Swier and Christian Helping Hands resident Judy Holzberger (right) at the organization's office.
Housing after mass commutation
Kathy Peacock works with Stand in the Gap Ministries, an organization that helps women in prison get ready for life on their own.
"We need more transition homes, and we need them in areas that we don't have them in," Peacock said.
Without transitional housing, Peacock says people leaving prison often end up couch surfing in the same places where they got arrested. That's where she's afraid people released in the state's mass commutations last November have gone.
"Unfortunately there were very few women who went to transition homes," Peacock said. "I personally only know of two … the other homes that I've talked to, they may have applied but they didn't show up."
Unlike people who are paroled, many of the people in the mass commutation were released without conditions. She says that's concerning because the structure people get in these programs helps reduce their chances of falling back into criminal life.
Future transitions
"We need 100 more programs like this because that's what people need," Robin Wertz said. "They need housing and employment, first and foremost."
With a record number of commutations in 2019 and hundreds more releases expected this year as criminal justice reforms take effect, lawmakers and a task force for the governor say they want to give people smoother transitions out of prison and set them up for success, but it's unclear if they will deal with it when the legislative session starts February 3.

Bismarck Ebiweh: From Award-winning Athlete to Becoming a Renowned Success Coach
Bismarck Ebiweh's journey from being an award-winning athlete, to becoming a famous success coach.
by DN News Desk VIP Contributor.
Athletes endure a lot in their life, from personal grievances to on-field problems. They still stick it out and make it to the big league. They go on to win games and achieve their dreams. Some take it even further, making sure they leave behind a legacy not just on the field but also off it. Bismarck Ebiweh, an award-winning track and field runner turned renowned success coach, talks about his inspirational journey from the racing track to self-improvement guru.
Born in Nigeria, Ebiweh lost his father at a young age before migrating to the US at the age of 9. Since high school, he was interested in becoming a runner. He set straight records for the 400m run during his time in school. At the University of Louisiana, Lafayette, he qualified for the NCAA Track & Field Regional Championships for the 4×100 Relay, and even competed in the 100m, 200m, 60m, and 400m. During this time, he went through several personal problems. Facing these problems head on, and not letting them destroy him, gave him the life lessons that he now uses to improve his life as well as the lives of thousands of other men.
"Self-improvement comes from within. I truly believe that empowering men will encourage them to live a quality life. That is why I became a lifestyle coach," said Ebiweh. He even wrote a book on the subject titled Cracking the Dating Code: A Solution for the Frustrated Man which he was able to self-publish at the age of only 23. The book brought him a lot of fame, and helped him reach out to a wider audience that benefited greatly from the lessons he taught in the book. Today, he is one of the most well-known African-American Men's Lifestyle and Self-improvement Coaches.
In less than two years, Ebiweh has made a name for himself, garnering over 50 thousand subscribers on YouTube, accumulating almost 4 million views there. Online, he provides much needed comfort and essential tips to thousands of men, helping them to improve their lifestyle.

Honestly though, have you ever seen such pretty tomatoes?!
I know I've been talking non-stop about tomatoes for the past two weeks, but oh my gosh, I think this summer's tomatoes have been the best! Of course the discovery of these beautiful little gems at my local farm stand was probably a major factor… I seriously cannot get enough!
Sooo, you want to know how this pretty little tart was created? Well, it goes a little something like this. I bought way too many tomatoes from that same little farm stand and had not a clue what to do with them. I was hiking the next morning, thinking to myself, there's no way on Earth I am going to let the best tomatoes ever just sit on my pantry counter and go to waste.
Plus, I just really, really wanted to take more photos of the tomatoes, I am obsessed.
Malachi: "Tieghan, like what the hell do we need all these tomato shots for? Pretty sure we just wasted ten minutes filming tomatoes sitting on a counter. Like, are you insane?".
Tieghan: "The tomatoes are the star of the show, they're gonna make the video".
Anyway, I decided on my hike that I needed to come up with a simple, but creative way to use the tomatoes. A recipe that would really highlight their incredible colors and flavors.
I love the combo of cheddar + tomato, so that was a must. But I needed something a bit more. I decided to add a little basil and um… the everything bagel spice. I have to say, this spice kind of makes the tart. It's so simple, but really packs on the flavor. The sesame seeds pair really nicely with the raw tomatoes and the gooey melted cheddar cheese.
For real, this heirloom tomato cheddar tart with everything spice is perfection… like beyond belief, SO delicious!
All you need is puff pastry, basil pesto, cheddar cheese, tomatoes, olive oil and then that magical everything bagel spice (made with sesame seeds, dried onion, dried garlic, poppy seeds, salt and pepper). It really just doesn't get any simpler.
Also, while I left my tomatoes raw and allowed the warm tart to slightly heat them up, you should know that this tart is great with the tomatoes baked on top in the oven as well. I guess I do prefer them raw, since the tomatoes are just so good right now, but if you find yourself with some imperfect tomatoes, just bake them right on top of the tart. It's a little more like pizza then, but I don't think anyone will be complaining.
Serious question though: are you guys totally over the tomato recipes? I'm crossing both fingers that your answer is NO. I am still going full force with these late summer tomatoes and I really hope you guys are with me.
Double also?! Can we please agree that tonight's dinner NEEDS to be this tart? I mean, for one you can have it ready for eating in just about thirty minutes, and two… it really is the best freaking thing ever!
Puff pasty + basil pesto + cheddar cheese + heirloom tomatoes + everything spice?!
Heirloom Tomato Cheddar Tart with Everything Spice.
Lay the thawed puff pastry on the prepared baking sheet and prick the pastry with the tines of a fork. Spread the pesto over the dough, leaving a 1/4-inch boarder and top with cheddar cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden and the cheese has melted.
Combine everything in a small bowl or glass jar. Keep stored in a cool, dry place.
6 Ingredient Creamy Roasted Tomato Soup.
OMG, I already see myself eating this tart! Yummy yummy!
I think tomatoes my be my new favorite veggie. So pretty. This is gorgeous!!
Seriously mine too, they're just so pretty!
Haha, I'm still laughing at the tomato filming argument 'cause that's like the story of my life. I know exactly what you mean about loving to photograph colorful and natural foods, they're the best. Also the best…this TART! I am so loving each piece of it, especially the everything spice on top, YUM!
Thanks Tori, so happy you like the tart!
Yea so I'm all over this tart with unbaked tomatoes, I haven't had a real good tomato yet this summer and that's real sad, and I'm from New Jersey. I better remedy that real fast.
So happy you like the tart!! Thats seriously sad to hear!! You need to get out and find some good ones!! Maybe make this when you do ?
These tomatoes are spectacular! where on earth did you find these? so beautiful!!
Ah, thank you!! I got them at a food stand down the road from me!! They're perfect!
Love how you kept the tomatoes raw, especially since you're using heirlooms, they are jewels on their own. Bring on as many tomato recipes as you want. I'm all in for as many as I can eat while the season lasts!

Hi Barbara! I am so glad you enjoy my recipes and hope you continue to in the future! It is perfectly okay to use the photos from my recipes, with credit to Half Baked Harvest, but please do not copy the recipe.
Let me know if you have any other questions and thank you for reaching out!
Do you thaw the pastry first? Gotta try this!


Think about what's most critical to your happiness and satisfaction at work. Is it the pay and benefits? The hours? The people? Are those things enough to make a job fulfilling? Chances are there are other factors that are just as important, or more so—things like feeling empowered to make an impact, having the right tools and support to be successful, and not feeling constantly pressured or under the gun. Customer service agents feel that way too.
In the age of AI, the needs of the human workforce can often get lost. But if companies want to deliver exceptional customer experiences, it's critical that they make sure their agents' experience is positive, too. That starts with making sure agents have the right tools and technology to do what they've been hired to do: Keep customers happy.
Unfortunately, too many brands are not setting their agents up for success. As customer expectations continue to increase, agents are finding it harder and harder to keep up with ever-expanding engagement channels, the limits of legacy systems, and the complexity of incoming queries. AI can help meet these challenges, but agents are still on the hook for complex and mission–critical customer issues. Neglect their needs, and you get burnout, frustration, and ultimately, sub-par customer experiences.
Hand-in-Hand Agent Collaboration. With Bold30 Discussions, agents who are chatting with a customer can quickly start a conversation with another agent or supervisor to ask for assistance or clarification. These behind the scenes conversations can help the agent resolve the query immediately or enable a warm hand-off to another agent or supervisor. Discussions can help companies increase overall customer satisfaction by minimizing handle times and increasing first-call resolution.
Support Swarming. An agent or supervisor using Bold360's Join Chat capability is able to start a three-way collaborative conversation with the customer – allowing both support people to work together to resolve issues faster.
On the Job Coaching Assistance. With the combination of Bold360 Discussions and Join Chat, companies can bring agents up to speed faster with in-product support from other agents, subject matter experts, and supervisors. This helps agents onboard more quickly, aids with continuous learning as jobs change, and ultimately lowers employee churn.
Hands-On Bot Management. Bold360's Bot to Agent Chat Reassignment allows supervisors to intervene and quickly reassign chats from bots to human agents in the event human assistance would be beneficial.
AI may be here to stay, but so are human agents. When you empower your workforce with the resources they need to succeed, you can not only count on happier employees that are more likely to stick around, you can also count on happier, more loyal customers.
Check out what's new with Bold360 here and read our whitepaper "How to Maximize Agent Productivity to Drive Results".

Our Uncertain But Bright Healthcare Future
The healthcare marketplace is evolving due to forced mandates at the federal level. It doesn't have to be a bleak future. In a dynamic overview, Jennifer Searfoss brings the views of the consumer to patient care, hand-held smartphones into the medical practice and how big data is a necessary evil to harness. This session will provide insight and understanding for what healthcare organizations large and small should expect in the next five years in reimbursement and healthcare delivery reform.

This session will cover the latest model contracts from national health plans and highlight experiments taking place in several large metropolitan areas.
Appreciate the motivations of health plans to engage in reimbursement reform so that your contracting discussions start from a win-win position

Town could be without Matt Preston for a period of time with the defender set to see a specialist on Friday.
The defender, who has been in superb form in recent weeks, picked up the knock during the 1-0 win against Mansfield on Saturday.
The initial scan didn't return positive results and Preston will now seek a second opinion, although Town Boss Dave Flitcroft has already prepared himself for the worst case scenario.
"He's got to see the specialist on Friday," Flitcroft said.
"He's had a scan and, at the minute, it doesn't look good.
"There was a load of swelling on it on Sunday and he had the scan on Monday night.
"His knee has absolutely ballooned - it doubled in size.
"We are sending him to a top specialist on Friday and he'll give us the details.
"The adrenaline got him through the game on Saturday and he felt something after the game. It blew up after and it could be a medium-term injury.
"I can't clarify that until after he sees the specialist.
"It would be a massive loss.
"He had a great start when he came in, he then had an indifferent spell but, since then, his form has been fantastic throughout the last couple of months."

Q: How to run Google Chrome or Chromium on a remote ssh session? I have CentOS 7 in the cloud where I can do only remotely ssh root@docean.com.
But remotely, how can I run a session of Google Chrome or Chromium on it and see the GUI remotely to browse remotely?
I have already tried all the references but none solve it. I am connecting from OSX 10.12x to CentOS 7.
Step 1:
$ which xauth
/usr/bin/xauth
$ cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config | grep X11
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
#X11UseLocalhost yes
#X11Forwarding no
$ systemctl restart sshd.service
$ systemctl stop iptables.service

Step 2:  Failing?
$ echo $DISPLAY

$ ssh -v -X root@docean.com
...
debug1: X11 forwarding requested but DISPLAY not set
...
$ export DISPLAY=:0.0 && xclock
xclock Error: Can't open display:

$ chromium-browser https://icanhazip.com
[28207:28207:0323/200459.551890:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(272)] Gtk: Locale not supported by C library.
    Using the fallback 'C' locale.
[28207:28207:0323/200459.557234:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(272)] Gtk: cannot open display:

A: First you need uncomment this lines in /etc/ssh/ssh_config on server:
X11Forwarding yes

The second step is connect to server with -X and execute Chromium
ssh -X user@hostname chromium

You will see it on client computer.

A: Did you try X forwarding option in ssh? ssh -X or ssh -Y, or enable remote desktop service

A: You are probably missing an X11 Server on the Mac Side.  An X11 server used to ship with OS X, but doesn't anymore, however the XQuartz Project provides working client and server libraries and binaries for OS X (even Sierra).
You can run xauth, and export DISPLAY=blah, and xclock all you want, but if you don't actually have an X-compatible display server (and the display on OS X is not X-Windows), it will all be for naught.
XQuartz is also Apple's official recommendation for X on OS X, too.
Once you get XQuartz installed, you should have a much better experience X-Forwarding applications, and at that point some of the other answers in this thread should get you going.

A: The quickest way is using X11 forwaring, as others suggested, you need to have xserver installed on the remote local machine.
Well explained here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/12772/222357
Edit: as @Jakuje correctly pointed out, on remote machine there's no need to install xserver

Mike Shanahan Wins Largest Major Poker Tournament in Michigan History; Takes Down MSPT FireKeepers for $216,829!
To say the MSPT's ninth visit to FireKeepers Casino in Battle Creek, Michigan was a big one would be an understatement.
Not only did it attract 1,066 entries, which surpassed last October's MSPT field of 884 to make it the largest poker tournament in Michigan history, it also awarded over $1 million in prizes to players. Pretty amazing considering just four years ago "only" 272 runners played in the inaugural event.
After a long weekend of play in what was the MSPT's largest-ever event held outside Las Vegas, Indiana's Mike Shanahan, a 49-year-old attorney, emerged victorious to capture a $216,829 first-place prize.
The win was by far the biggest cash of Shanahan's poker career. Prior to it, he had $164,291 in earnings with a career-best $29,329 for finishing 291st in the 2015 World Series of Poker Main Event. Though that was a bit of a disappointing finish for him as he was at one time the tournament chip leader.
As for what he'll do with the money, aside from taking another shot in this year's Main Event, the married father of two grown sons only had two things bookmarked.
"Pay some taxes and take a vacation," he said.
To win the title, Shanahan bested poker pro Aaron Massey in heads-up play. Massey had won the MSPT FireKeepers one year prior, and amazingly it was his third MSPT FireKeepers final table in a row (he finished seventh in last fall's MSPT Michigan State Poker Championship). To put it another way, he final tabled the three largest events – fields of 820, 884 and 1,066 entries – in Michigan history. He ultimately exited in second place for $131,646, which moved him into third place on the MSPT all-time money list.
Day 2 saw 206 players return to action, but with only 99 slated to get paid, more than half the field left empty handed. Among those to fall short of the money were MSPT Season 4 Player of the Year Pat Steele, 2016 MSPT Iowa State Poker Champ John Sun, and former MSPT FireKeepers champ Michael Ferrarotti.
Once the bubble burst, another 89 players exited before the final table was set. Among them were World Series of Poker bracelet winner Adam Friedman (95th - $2,272), 2016 MSPT Wisconsin State Poker Champ Andy Rubinberg (83rd - $2,375), 2016 MSPT Michigan State Poker Championship runner up Cy Church (44th - $4,337), three-time MSPT champ Carl Carodenuto (31st - $5,266), and the last champ in the field, Charlie Dawson (11th - $14,145), who bubbled the final table.
It took just two hands at the final table for Joe Hinton to get his stack of 1.6 million all in holding ace-queen at the 40,000/80,000/10,000 level only to run into the ace-king of Shanahan. The board ran out all low cards and Hinton was out the door in 10th place for $14,145, his first MSPT cash.
On Hand #32, Justin Rice raised to 220,000 under the gun holding the 7♣7♦ and Scott Skriba defended the big blind with the A♥10♣. The A♣7♥5♠ flop hit both players, and Skriba checked to Rice, who bet 180,000. Skirba woke up with a check-raise to 400,000, Rice just called, and the A♠ appeared on the turn.
Skirba led out for 500,000, Rice flatted, and the K♥ completed the board on the river. Skirba, who had 700,000 back, checked but ended up calling off when Rice moved all in. Skirba took home $18,276 for finishing in ninth place.
Two hands later, Dustin Smith got it in preflop with pocket deuces against Rice's Big Slick, and an ace on the river ended his run in eighth place for $22,199. Five hands after that, Daniel Panone bowed out shoving his short stack from the button with jack-ten and failing to get there against the ace-nine of Frank Lucarelli.
From there, Terry Moore fell after getting his short stack in with jack-four and running it into Rice's queen-jack, and a short time later Chris Meyers ran king-jack into the king-queen of Lucarelli. Neither player got lucky and fell in sixth and fifth place respectively.
On Hand #83 of the final table, with the blinds at 100,000/200,000/30,000, Rice three-bet all in for 3.8 million with the 5♣5♥ and was called by Shanahan's Q♦Q♣. The board ran out a clean 3♠K♣8♥2♥3♥ and Rice headed to the payout desk in fourth place.
Lucarelli was the short stack three handed, and he became Massey's first final table victim. It happened when Lucarelli shoved his last 1.1 million from the button holding the K♥4♥ and running into the J♠J♦ of Massey. The board ran out 10♠10♣5♠2♦9♦ and Massey took 13 million chips into heads-up play against Shanahan's 8.1 million.
It only took a couple of hands for Shanahan to seize the lead, and about 30 minutes into the match things came to a head when Massey four-bet all in holding the A♦Q♦ and Shanahan called with the Q♥Q♠. The board ran out 4♠J♥8♥K♣J♦ and Shanahan became a MSPT champ.
